OriginaveEUNL (IWDA) vs AVWC: which ETF won each year?
Yearly returns side by side, one winner per year — dividends included, priced as you'd actually buy them.
Every figure here is in euros — what you'd actually pocket buying on Xetra.

EUNL vs AVWC in plain words
EUNL tracks the MSCI World Index while AVWC follows the Avantis Global Equity strategy, so they own different slices of the market and their years can look very different. EUNL charges 0.20% a year in running costs and AVWC charges 0.22% — EUNL is the cheaper fund to hold.
Both are accumulating funds: dividends are reinvested inside the fund and show up as a higher share price, never as a payout. Across the 3 calendar years both funds were trading, EUNL finished the year ahead 1 times and AVWC 2 times. €10,000 invested at the start of 2025 was worth €10,790 in EUNL versus €10,908 in AVWC by the end of 2025, dividends reinvested.
IWDA (London/Amsterdam, USD) and SWDA (London, GBP) are listings of the same fund, ISIN IE00B4L5Y983 — EUNL is its EUR line on Xetra.
Actively managed: it tilts a broad developed-market portfolio towards cheaper, more profitable and smaller companies rather than following an index, and measures itself against the MSCI World IMI.
