The iShares MSCI Switzerland ETF (the Fund ) seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of Swiss equities.
The fund tracks the MSCI Switzerland 25/50 Index using representative sampling, holding a sample of Swiss large- and mid-cap equities with investment characteristics similar to the index; the index applies a capping methodology that limits any single corporate group to 25% weight and restricts groups above 5% to an aggregate 50% weight. Because the fund may not hold all index constituents, its returns may diverge from the index. The fund concentrates its holdings in industries to the same extent as the index, which as of August 2025 emphasizes consumer goods and services, financials, and healthcare.

How it has done
EWL share class · total returns with dividends reinvested
Volatility over the last 12 months: 15.31%. Past returns are a record, not a forecast.
