iShares Core MSCI Japan IMI UCITS ETF

iShares Core MSCI Japan IMI UCITS ETF is an exchange-traded fund that seeks to track the performance of the MSCI Japan Investable Market Index (IMI), comprising Japanese large, mid, and small-cap companies. Launched in September 2009 and domiciled in Ireland, this accumulating ETF reinvests dividends rather than distributing them, promoting compounded growth through physical replication of its benchmark holdings. With a low total expense ratio of 0.12% per annum, it offers cost-efficient exposure to over 2,000 Japanese equities across diverse sectors, including technology, industrials, consumer discretionary, and financials. The fund's USD base currency introduces unhedged currency risk for non-USD investors, reflecting fluctuations in yen exchange rates. As one of the largest ETFs targeting the broad Japanese equity market, with assets exceeding €6 billion, it plays a key role in providing diversified access to Japan's dynamic economy for international portfolios. Managed by BlackRock under iShares, it supports UCITS compliance for European investors seeking broad market participation without active management.
