Is IWDA the European version of ITOT?
Partly: 73% of the money in IWDA and ITOT is the same, as of October 14, 2026. IWDA is iShares Core MSCI World UCITS ETF (ISIN IE00B4L5Y983), an Irish-domiciled UCITS fund on the MSCI World index.

Does the ITOT vs IWDA overlap apply to other tickers?
Yes. IWDA also trades as SWDA (London, GBP; Borsa Italiana, EUR) and EUNL (Xetra, EUR). Each is the same portfolio in another currency, on another exchange or paying its dividends out, so ITOT vs EUNL also overlaps 73%.
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.
