    BRAND NEW 0.07% Fee FTSE All-World ETF - Wow!

    Mentioned in this episode: 📊 ISA tool - click here🌎 PACW Global ETF review video - click hereI forgot to mention the ticker symbols, so I put them on screen at 5:56. These are the ticker symbols for the GBP-listed ETFs. The main caveat with all of this is that these two ETFs are brand new. As a result, they are likely to have higher spread fees, they currently have a relatively small amount of assets under management (AUM) and they have a lack of track record - so we don't know how well the ETFs will track the underlying index. But - overall it's still great that we are getting lower and lower fees for global ETFs!
