questions6 answered

How much do VUAA and EIMI overlap?

None by holdings, as of September 30, 2026: no company appears in both funds. By sector, 86% of their money sits in the same sectors, led by Information Technology.

Which stocks do VUAA and EIMI both hold?

None. VUAA and EIMI have no holding in common.

Is it redundant to hold both VUAA and EIMI?

No. Out of every €100 split evenly between them, none buys the same company. Half in each gives you 3,391 different holdings that behave like 80 equally weighted stocks, against 43 for VUAA alone and 37 for EIMI alone. Whether that mix suits you depends on what you want to own; this is a description, not advice.

Do VUAA and EIMI track the same index?

No. VUAA (ISIN IE00BFMXXD54) tracks the S&P 500 index, EIMI (ISIN IE00BKM4GZ66) the MSCI Emerging Markets IMI. As of September 30, 2026, 503 companies are only in VUAA (100% of the fund) and 2,888 only in EIMI (99% of it).

Does the VUAA vs EIMI overlap apply to other tickers?

Yes. VUAA also trades as VUAG (London, GBP), and VUSA (ISIN IE00B3XXRP09) is its distributing share class. 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 VUAG and IS3N 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 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.
