About SUWS

iShares MSCI World SRI UCITS ETF USD (Dist) is an exchange-traded fund managed by BlackRock that tracks the MSCI World SRI Select Index, focusing on large- and mid-cap companies from developed markets worldwide with superior environmental, social, and governance (ESG) ratings. Launched on October 12, 2017, and domiciled in Ireland, it employs a representative sampling methodology to replicate the index's performance while distributing income quarterly to investors. The ETF deliberately excludes companies involved in controversial activities such as alcohol production, gambling, tobacco, civilian firearms, nuclear power support, adult entertainment, and military weapons manufacturing, emphasizing socially responsible investing across diversified sectors like technology, healthcare, and consumer goods. Notable holdings include leading firms such as Microsoft, NVIDIA, and Tesla, reflecting exposure to innovative and sustainable global leaders. With assets under management exceeding 1.4 billion euros and a low total expense ratio of 0.20%, it provides unhedged USD exposure, playing a key role in enabling investors to access ethical equity strategies that align financial returns with positive societal impact.
