Description
UBS MSCI Switzerland 20/35 UCITS ETF hGBP dis tracks the issuer-declared index: MSCI Switzerland 20/35 100% hedged to GBP Total Return Net. The declared annual cost (TER) is 0.23%, plus 0.01% in transaction costs estimated by the issuer in the KID. The fund was launched on 29 May 2015 and is domiciled in Luxembourg.
The fund’s objective — in the issuer’s words(the issuer publishes the KID in Italian)
Il Fondo è gestito in modo passivo e assumerà un'esposizione proporzionale alle componenti del MSCI Switzerland 20/35 100% hedged to GBP Index (Net Return) tramite investimenti diretti in tutti o quasi tutti i titoli che lo compongono e/o mediante l'uso di derivati, in particolare laddove non sia possibile o praticabile replicare l'indice attraverso investimenti diretti o al fine di generare efficienze nell'acquisizione dell'esposizione all'indice. In alcuni casi il comparto potrebbe anche detenere titoli non compresi nell'indice se il gestore del portafoglio lo ritenesse appropriato in funzione dell'obiettivo e delle restrizioni d'investimento del comparto o di altri fattori. L'esposizione all'indice tramite la replica diretta può essere penalizzata dai costi di ribilanciamento, mentre l'esposizione all'indice tramite derivati può risentire dei costi di negoziazione degli strumenti derivati. L'uso di derivati OTC comporta un ulteriore rischio di controparte, che tuttavia è mitigato dalla politica di garanzie di UBS (Lux) Fund Solutions. Il comparto investirà il proprio patrimonio netto prevalentemente in azioni, valori mobiliari, strumenti del mercato monetario, quote di organismi di investimento collettivo, depositi presso istituti di credito, titoli strutturati quotati o negoziati su un mercato regolamentato e altre attività idonee ai sensi del prospetto informativo. Il comparto può effettuare operazioni di prestito titoli. I rischi di sostenibilità non sono sistematicamente integrati in quanto non sono considerati parte del processo di selezione dell'Indice. Il rendimento del Fondo dipende principalmente dalla performance dell'indice replicato. Questa classe distribuisce i proventi netti al fine di replicare il parametro di riferimento MSCI Switzerland 20/35 100% hedged to GBP Index (Net Return) nel modo più preciso possibile. Il rischio di cambio della valuta della classe di azioni è in larga misura coperto dalla valuta del fondo.

Note — currency risk: the fund is denominated (or hedged) in GBP and the chart is in GBP. For a euro investor, returns also depend on the EUR/GBP exchange rate, up or down.
Currency-hedged share class: our figures are computed on the issuer’s NAV, where the hedge is applied at the daily fixing. Comparison sites using the exchange price may show returns and volatility that differ by 1–2 points: on hedged classes the price-vs-NAV gap is structurally wider and grows with the length of the window. Not a data error — a measurement convention. Details in the methodology.

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 0 of the last 10 calendar years: a past observation, not an indication of future outperformance.
