The MSCI World Equal Weighted index Factsheet

The MSCI World Equal Weighted (EW) is an equity index that tracks the performance of companies from 23 developed markets worldwide. The key difference compared to the standard MSCI World index is that all companies are weighted equally in the MSCI World Equal Weighted index. These equal weights are re-established on a quarterly basis by means of rebalancing. By contrast, in the conventional MSCI World index, all companies are weighted according to their market capitalisation. The equal weighting of companies in the MSCI World EW index reduces the impact of single major companies on the performance of the index. In addition, US companies play a significantly smaller role in the MSCI World EW index compared to the classic index variant. ETFs on the MSCI World Equal Weighted index are therefore a possible alternative for investors for whom the US share or the weighting of specific companies in the MSCI World index is too high.
