Frequently asked questions
Is iShares or MyInvestor cheaper?+
iShares offers the cheapest fund in 2 of the 3 categories both cover, against 1 for MyInvestor. But "cheaper overall" is the wrong question: what matters is which is cheaper in the category you are actually buying.
Where is the difference between iShares and MyInvestor biggest?+
In the US market: iShares Core S&P 500 charges 0.07% against 0.30% for MyInvestor S&P 500 Equiponderado. On €10,000 invested that is a €23.00 difference every year, in favour of iShares.
Which one has the wider range?+
iShares, with 64 products against 3. Coverage is not identical either: iShares covers emerging markets, European equities, the Japanese market, sustainable (ESG) criteria, fixed income, listed real estate, gold, small-cap companies, a specific thematic sector, high-dividend companies where MyInvestor does not.
Are there structural differences beyond fees?+
Yes. iShares's products in this catalog are 41% accumulating and 100% physically replicated, domiciled in Ireland, Germany. MyInvestor's are 100% accumulating and 100% physical, domiciled in Spain. For a Spanish investor the accumulating/distributing split matters for tax, and domicile matters for dividend withholding.
Does this comparison look at past performance?+
No, deliberately. Two funds tracking the same index deliver almost identical returns before fees, so comparing their past returns tells you about the index, not about the provider. The fee is the part the provider actually controls, and the only one you know for certain the day you invest.
Cost and coverage comparison computed over this site’s catalog, which is a sample and not each provider’s full product range. Returns are not compared: two funds tracking the same index perform almost identically before fees, so past performance tells you about the index, not the provider.
