67% by weight, as of September 30, 2026: heavy overlap. 3,201 companies appear in both funds; they make up 98% of VWCE and 89% of XEQT.
Which stocks do VWCE and XEQT both hold?

Is it redundant to hold both VWCE and XEQT?
Out of every $100 split evenly between them, about $67 (half in each fund) buys identical positions. The rest is exposure only one of the two funds gives you: 594 names only in VWCE, 4,974 only in XEQT. Half in each behaves like 151 equally weighted stocks, against 107 for VWCE alone and 191 for XEQT alone. Whether that duplication is a problem depends on the mix you want; this is a description, not advice.
Is VWCE the European version of XEQT?
Partly: 67% of the money in VWCE and XEQT is the same, as of September 30, 2026. VWCE is Vanguard FTSE All-World UCITS ETF (USD) Accumulating (ISIN IE00BK5BQT80), an Irish-domiciled UCITS fund on the FTSE All-World index. European brokers generally don't sell US-listed ETFs such as XEQT to retail clients, because those funds publish no KID (the PRIIPs key information document); UCITS funds do.
Does the VWCE vs XEQT 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 VWRA vs XEQT also overlaps 67%.
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.
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.
