World 70-90% EM 10-30% Europe unnecessary, as already represented in the World.
Personally, I would even go for 100% World. Many companies generate their sales worldwide. I therefore consider weighting by region to be outdated. But that's just my opinion. Objectively speaking, the emerging markets should certainly not be neglected.
@PayPalPaul you need to know, but I see more Europe as a drag on returns. You also have to remember that the world weighting is not set in stone. It is weighted according to market capitalization. In the unlikely event that Europe performs better again at some point, its share will also increase. Conversely, the American share will fall.
I do 80/20 Developed/Emerging as a middle ground between market cap and GDP weighting. Of the Developed only 70% in MSCI World and 10% in the Europe 600 I also find a good approach. However, I wonder how you decided on these 3 ETFs. Aren't there any ETFs for all 3 indices that perform better after taking TER and TD into account?
@PayPalPaul For EM I would take the $EIMI. The one from HSBC doesn't perform that well. I also think the World from SPDR is the best. I can't say anything about the Europe ETF. If you want to make things easier for yourself, just take an ACWI or All-World. It will probably make almost no difference after a few decades.
I think that's good. However, you don't have any smaller companies (smallcaps) in it. I would therefore take an EM IMI ETF instead of the emerging markets ETF, and replace the Europe ETF with a Europe smallcap ETF
For example: $XXSC Or even better: $ZPRX (Since value stocks generally perform better over the longer term (especially with small caps).
