Built up a decent safety buffer and have decided to put 2000 euros every month automatically on an European accumulated ETF.
Which is the ETF you are or would invest in?
If you have €2k/month spare to throw into an ETF recommended by strangers, maybe you should have a financial advisor? it all depends on your acceptable risk and long term expectations.
Financial advisor would recommend me to buy a world ETF which is 60% in the USA. They’d recommend to forego home bias.
For example don’t invest in the Bel20 as Belgian, low return on investment.
I’m interested in what this part of the internet does for their investments since it’s about buying from Europe.
Look at mostly indexes rather than managed funds. Much lower fees for normally more performance.
Take a look at some whole Europe indexes (check where management is based if that matters) looking at their descriptions/top 10s to see what/where they are actually investing in.
That will mostly get you the big European conglomerates though, you may then have to look into country specific indexes to get the smaller cap companies.
You don’t have to put everything in one basket. Check the buy/sell fees if any and the min investment, you may be able to put €200 in 10 different funds/indexes. (No point if they all invest in the same thing though)
There’s only 3-4 big EU-Eurozone-Europe ETFs, I’m sure you can figure out which one suits you in about 10 minutes research 😅 At least that’s how long it took me to decide what to swap my VOO for.
