Dear all,
I logged on to buy VWCE, as I do every month.
Can’t buy it.
From Degiro
Thank you for your e-mail.
The problem is that the issuer has no longer registered Switzerland for trading in this product.
You can still sell your position, but buying is no longer possible.
We still have similar products available on our platform for Swiss customers, but unfortunately I cannot give you any names as this would fall under investment advice.
It is also possible to trade the ETF with a German DEGIRO account, for example. Only the Swiss platform can no longer offer the product.
Anyone else in the same boat.
This happens from time to time. An asset manager may decide not to sell in a particular market for various reason, that is just life.
In any case this index tracker does not seem to be anything unique, so just switch to a different provider such as perhaps this one:

Or perhaps looks at trackers that track the MSCI world index for instance.
More likely related to the broker. I just checked and it’s still available on multiple exchanges for purchase via the CS trading platform.
Out of curiosity, why not buy VT? Lower total expense ratio, higher volume thus lower buy/sell spread
