The largest shared positions are 2330, 005930, 000660, 700 and 9988. Ranked by the smaller of the two weights, which is the part you would own twice.

Is it redundant to hold both EEM and VWCE?

Out of every $100 split evenly between them, about $12 (half in each fund) buys identical positions. The rest is exposure only one of the two funds gives you: 59 names only in EEM, 2,685 only in VWCE. Half in each behaves like 74 equally weighted stocks, against 28 for EEM alone and 107 for VWCE alone. Whether that duplication is a problem depends on the mix you want; this is a description, not advice.

What is VWCE, next to EEM?

VWCE is Vanguard FTSE All-World UCITS ETF (USD) Accumulating (ISIN IE00BK5BQT80), an Irish-domiciled UCITS fund on the FTSE All-World index. Next to EEM, 12% of the money is the same, spread over 1,110 companies both hold, as of September 24, 2026.

Does the EEM vs VWCE overlap apply to other tickers?

Yes. VWCE also trades as VWRA (London, USD) and VWRP (London, GBP), and VWRL (ISIN IE00B3RBWM25) is its distributing share class. Each is the same portfolio in another currency, on another exchange or paying its dividends out, so EEM vs VWRA also overlaps 12%.

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 and Vanguard 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.
