Amundi Euro Corporate Bond vs UBS Bloomberg Barclays TIPS 10+

Amundi Euro Corporate Bond tracks Markit iBoxx Euro Corporate and UBS Bloomberg Barclays TIPS 10+ tracks Bloomberg US Treasury Inflation Linked Bond 10+.

Which one will perform better?+

Which one is cheaper?+

Amundi Euro Corporate Bond has the lower annual fee. Applying the same 7% gross return to both with €300/month, that fee gap alone is worth about €749 after 20 years — that part is arithmetic, not a forecast.

Accumulating or distributing?+

Amundi Euro Corporate Bond is accumulating (dividends are reinvested inside the fund) and UBS Bloomberg Barclays TIPS 10+ is distributing (dividends are paid out to you). For long-term compounding in Spain, accumulating usually defers taxation; distributing gives you income you are taxed on each year.

Can I hold both?+

Yes. Unlike two funds tracking the identical index, these give you genuinely different exposure, so holding both is not automatically redundant — just be aware you may end up overlapping on the largest companies and doubling your rebalancing work.
