Our read on FLEU

ETF.net Research

AThe euro bloc, straight up: no UK, no Swiss francs, no hedging overlay. Franklin charges 0.09% a year to track the FTSE Developed Eurozone Index, a fraction of the median fee among index funds in its peer group.

Stated mandate

The Fund uses a passive indexing approach and seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the FTSE Developed Eurozone Index.

Why people hold it

  1. 010.09% a year against a 0.45% median for index funds in its peer group. Cheap beta is the entire pitch, and Franklin delivers it.
  2. 02Roughly 300 stocks across developed eurozone markets, so the exposure reaches past the handful of household-name blue chips that dominate the region.
  3. 03A plain mandate with nowhere to hide: passively track the FTSE Developed Eurozone Index before fees. No factor tilts, no active overlay, no discretion.sec.gov
  4. 04Sits in the upper half of its index-wrapper peer group on the strength of that fee and a mandate it follows tightly.

Worth knowing

  1. 01Thinly traded. On smaller orders the bid-ask spread can cost more than a year of the 0.09% fee.
  2. 02It launched in 2017 as the Franklin FTSE Europe Hedged ETF and was renamed to the Eurozone strategy in 2023, so the early record reflects a different, hedged mandate.sec.gov
  3. 03Euro-currency countries only. The UK, Switzerland and the non-euro Nordics are out, and the euro's move against the dollar rides along unhedged.
