Description

UBS Core MSCI USA UCITS ETF USD Ukdis tracks the issuer-declared index: MSCI USA Total Return Net. The declared annual cost (TER) is 0.03%, plus 0.00% in transaction costs estimated by the issuer in the KID. The fund was launched on 16 September 2016 and is domiciled in Ireland. In our registry 2 other ETFs declare the same index.

The fund’s objective — in the issuer’s words

The Fund is passively managed and seeks to track performance of the MSCI USA Index (Net Return) (the 'Index'). The Index is designed to measure the performance of mid and large capitalisation companies which are listed on markets in the USA. The Fund will seek to hold all of the shares of the Index, in the same proportions as the Index, so that essentially the portfolio of the Fund will be a near mirror image of the Index. In seeking to implement its investment objective of tracking the performance of the Index, the Fund may also in exceptional circumstances hold securities which are not comprised in its Index, including, for example, securities in respect of which there has been an announcement or it is expected that they will shortly be included in the Index. The Fund may, for the purpose of reducing risk, reducing costs or generating additional capital or income, use derivative instruments. The use of derivative instruments may multiply the gains or losses made by the Fund on given investment or on its investments generally. Currency hedged share classes may also be available in the Fund. The Fund may enter into securities lending transactions. Sustainability risks are not systematically integrated as they are not considered as part of the Index selection process. The return of the fund depends mainly on the performance of the tracked index. This class distributes its net income in order to maintain the maximum tracking accuracy of the MSCI USA Index (Net Return).

Drawdown — distance from previous peak

This isn’t the return: it shows how far the fund is below its previous peak. 0% = you’re at the peak; below zero = how much you’re down and haven’t recovered yet.

From month-end NAVs, over the fund’s full history, on the series shown in the chart (dividends reinvested where declared). Deeper colour = larger move.
Issuer-declared series with dividends reinvested: the total performance, comparable with accumulating funds. Switch it off to see the price (NAV) alone, which drops at every dividend payment.
Source: UBS. Issuer-declared historical series; inflation: Eurostat and national statistical institutes, latest available July 2026 — for later days the index stays at the last published value (institutes publish with a few weeks’ lag). The «adjusted for inflation» view expresses value in today’s purchasing power for the selected country; volatility always stays nominal, as elsewhere on the site (deflating it would add artificial swings caused by the monthly cadence of the price index). Past performance is not indicative of future results: these are facts, not a recommendation.

Tracking difference — fund vs index

How much the fund returned above (+) or below (−) its index, year by year. It measures the actual deviation: the combined effect of costs (TER and transaction), securities-lending revenue and replication optimisations — which is why it can beat the TER. Tracking difference was positive in 3 of the last 3 calendar years: a past observation, not an indication of future outperformance.

Windows longer than the available price history cannot be computed and are not shown: they will appear on their own as time passes. Computed from the daily NAV series, always in nominal terms. Sharpe and Sortino use the ECB main refinancing rate averaged over the period (last year: 2.21%), weighted by days in force, as the risk-free rate. Same formulas as our public methodology: sample standard deviation annualised over 252 days; Sortino with downside deviation. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
