SPYI (IMID) 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. Fund fact sheets usually headline returns in US dollars, which can look very different: in 2025 a world tracker rose about 23% in dollars but only about 9% in euros, because the euro gained roughly 13% against the dollar. Here's the full story, year by year.

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.
