  • What Is The Best Global ETF? (VWRP, FWRG, ACWI & More) - Tom's Personal Finance
    Tom from @tom.tpf joins me on this podcast episode to discuss a very important question what is the best global ETF for UK investors?As Tom and I discussed on our previous podcast episode, investing really can be made simple - invest into a global fund and do this consistently for decades. However, which global ETF is best? There are many to choose from and the jargon can be confusing. So, in this episode we compare 5 of the most popular global ETF options. What makes them different? Primarily the number of underlying holdings (essentially the number of stocks in the ETF) and the fees that they charge. We go through each of the ETFs and then conclude on which one (or ones) are the best for investors. This episode will be very helpful if you're a long term global fund investor.
