No. EIMI (ISIN IE00BKM4GZ66) tracks the MSCI Emerging Markets IMI index, SMEA (ISIN IE00B4K48X80) the MSCI Europe. As of October 14, 2026, 2,888 companies are only in EIMI (99% of the fund) and 385 only in SMEA (99% of it).
Does the EIMI vs SMEA overlap apply to other tickers?
Yes. EIMI also trades as EMIM (London, GBP; Euronext Amsterdam, EUR) and IS3N (Xetra, EUR). SMEA also trades as IMAE (Euronext Amsterdam, EUR) and EUNK (Xetra, EUR). Each is the same portfolio in another currency, on another exchange or paying its dividends out, so IS3N and EUNK share no company either.
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.
