Is EIMI the European version of EEM?
Partly: 86% of the money in EIMI and EEM is the same, as of September 24, 2026. EIMI is iShares Core MSCI EM IMI UCITS ETF (ISIN IE00BKM4GZ66), an Irish-domiciled UCITS fund on the MSCI Emerging Markets IMI index. European brokers generally don't sell US-listed ETFs such as EEM to retail clients, because those funds publish no KID (the PRIIPs key information document); UCITS funds do.
Does the EEM vs EIMI overlap apply to other tickers?
Yes. EIMI also trades as EMIM (London, GBP; Euronext Amsterdam, EUR) and IS3N (Xetra, EUR). Each is the same portfolio in another currency, on another exchange or paying its dividends out, so EEM vs IS3N also overlaps 86%.
How is ETF overlap calculated here?
For every company held by both funds we take the smaller of its two weights and add them up. The weights come from the full holdings files iShares publish, not a top-10 sample, and companies are matched by their ISIN so share classes stay apart. Sector overlap applies the same rule to the issuers' sector labels; "behaves like N equally weighted stocks" is one over the sum of the squared weights.
Weights come from each issuer's published holdings file and are matched company by company on their ISIN. Cash, futures and currency positions are left out. This page describes what the funds hold; it is not investment advice.
