ACWI offers a broad portfolio of global large- and mid-cap stocks that matches the market well. The fund tracks a market-cap-selected and -weighted index that is a subset of our benchmark, excluding small-caps and frontier-market firms. As a result, ACWI tilts larger than our benchmark. The fund adviser uses a representative sampling of the index in managing the fund. Still, the fund is an excellent proxy for the global stock market. In all, ACWI provides solid global exposure.
