VT vs EIMI overlap

12% by weight, as of September 30, 2026: light overlap. 2,611 companies appear in both funds; they make up 12% of VT and 97% of EIMI.

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.

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: 7,544 names only in VT, 277 only in EIMI. Half in each behaves like 96 equally weighted stocks, against 128 for VT alone and 37 for EIMI alone. Whether that duplication is a problem depends on the mix you want; this is a description, not advice.

EIMI is iShares Core MSCI EM IMI UCITS ETF (ISIN IE00BKM4GZ66), an Irish-domiciled UCITS fund on the MSCI Emerging Markets IMI index. Next to VT, 12% of the money is the same, spread over 2,611 companies both hold, as of September 30, 2026.

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 VT vs IS3N also overlaps 12%.

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 Vanguard and 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.
