Franklin MSCI World Catholic Principles UCITS ETF (FLXA) charges a total expense ratio of 0.27% a year, about $27 a year on a $10,000 holding. The TER is deducted continuously from fund assets rather than billed to you, so it shows up as a drag on returns and never as a separate charge.
Franklin MSCI World Catholic Principles UCITS ETF (FLXA) is domiciled in Ireland (IE).

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.
