iShares Core MSCI World UCITS ETF USD (Acc)

The most frequent companions for IWDA in top-rated portfolios are precious metals like EGLN, GBS, and 4GLD, often representing between 20 and 50 percent of total holdings to provide a volatility buffer. Bonds, particularly EUR-hedged instruments like EUNA and AEGE, are also common, typically occupying 20 to 35 percent of the allocation to stabilize returns during equity market downturns. Emerging market equities such as EIMI and thematic equity tilts like tech or clean energy appear in more aggressive portfolios, serving as growth accelerators rather than defensive hedges.

EuroFolio members primarily utilize IWDA as a foundational core, with allocations ranging from a conservative 45 percent in balanced pension strategies to a dominant 90 percent in growth-oriented setups. The data suggests a clear divide in strategy: conservative investors pair IWDA with significant bond and gold weightings to keep volatility below 10 percent, while aggressive users leverage it alongside Bitcoin or concentrated tech ETFs to chase returns exceeding 17 percent annually. Regardless of the risk appetite, IWDA consistently acts as the primary anchor for global equity exposure across all top-performing portfolios.
