iShares MSCI World SRI vs Xtrackers MSCI Emerging Markets ESG

They track different indices: iShares MSCI World SRI follows MSCI World SRI Select Reduced Fossil Fuel and Xtrackers MSCI Emerging Markets ESG follows MSCI Emerging Markets ESG. They also differ in cost (0.20% vs 0.18% TER), replication (physical vs physical) and domicile (Irlanda vs Irlanda).

Nobody can know that: they track different indices, so their returns will diverge, and past index performance is not a prediction. What you can control today is the cost, the tax structure and whether the index actually covers what you want exposure to.

Xtrackers MSCI Emerging Markets ESG has the lower annual fee. Applying the same 7% gross return to both with €300/month, that fee gap alone is worth about €374 after 20 years — that part is arithmetic, not a forecast.

Both are accumulating, so on this point there is no difference between them.

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.
