Ireland (IE)Answered from the same data and calculations used above.
No — iShares Core MSCI World UCITS ETF USD (Acc)} (CBUF) is an accumulating share class, so dividends received from its holdings are reinvested inside the fund instead of being paid out. You realise that income as capital growth when you sell, which in many jurisdictions defers the tax event rather than triggering one each distribution.
iShares Core MSCI World UCITS ETF USD (Acc)} (CBUF) is domiciled in Ireland (IE). A Ireland-domiciled UCITS fund receives US dividends at a 15% treaty withholding rate inside the fund, versus the 30% statutory rate on dividends paid directly to a non-resident (generally 25% for an Indian resident under the India-US treaty with a valid W-8BEN). The fund-level 15% is deducted before NAV and is not reclaimable by you. Its shares also sit outside US estate tax, which applies to US-situs assets above $60,000 for non-resident aliens.
iShares Core MSCI World UCITS ETF USD (Acc)} (CBUF) tracks the MSCI World. Any fund tracking the same index gives you materially the same exposure, so cost, size and share class are usually what separate the alternatives, not the strategy.
Over the measured window CBUF showed annualised volatility of about 14.0% and a worst peak-to-trough fall of 21.9%. Volatility describes the size of a typical swing; the drawdown is what actually happened at the worst moment, and it is the number worth checking you could have held through.
CBUF returned 20.5% in total over the trailing five years, measured in EUR. Past performance describes what the index did, not what it will do, and for an index tracker it is mostly a statement about the market rather than about the manager.
