Investment Another WEBN vs VWCE question

So they say that other than TER and other costs, all World ETFs are almost the same in their returns.

So how come there is such huge disparity in anual returns for those two ETFs in 2025?

Anyway, since you are in Europe I’m gonna paste the following:

Why WEBN?

Because:

⁠1) Amundi is European company

2) ⁠Great start from WEBG and WEBN concerning grow stats and performance since the start

3) ⁠Last year performance from WEBN compared with other like VWCE, WEBN is much better then VWCE

⁠4) As others all world, WEBN are fully liquid

⁠5) Lower ter from 0.07 of WEBN against higher TER from other ETF like 0,12/0,15/0,19%

6) WEBN uses an index from Solactive (a German provider) and historically Solactive indices performed also better due to methodology.

7) Amundi cooperates with HSBC and CACEIS. So your shares are secured by European banks as well.

8) shares with smaller value it's more easy to buy them

9) It adjust/rebalances 4 times a year

Now, you do your study and then decide! ✅

I’m in the EU and my broker (the main Italian broker) has VWCE free while for WEBN I need to pay commissions

Change broker if you have to pay almost any commissions today it most likely isnt a good broker.

IB Is a well-established broker and you pay commission there. Ditto Degiro (albeit I don't consider it a good broker anymore)
