The 4 share classes hold the same portfolio
| Share class | Expense ratio | 1 year | 3 years | 5 years | Worst fall |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.10% | +15.27% | +40.52% | +31.10% | -6.46% | |
| 0.25% | +15.20% | +39.94% | +30.22% | -6.55% | |
| 0.35% | +15.05% | +39.47% | +29.54% | -6.58% | |
| 0.18% | +15.31% | +40.30% | +30.69% | -6.53% |
These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 1.56pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 0.31pp a year — not a difference in what they own.
