Rolling 10y: worst, average and best return across all 10-year windows in the fund's history. Younger funds (e.g. VWCE) collapse to a single value because they don't have 10 years of history yet.

Volatility: annualized standard deviation of daily log returns (× √252).

Max drawdown: largest peak-to-trough decline in the fund's history. Useful for sizing how deep things can go in bad periods.

ETFs and a bank deposit on one timeline

ETF lines show actual historical performance normalized to the starting amount. The deposit line projects the selected bank's currently published rate.

Compare with a deposit

Quick estimate: how each selected ETF (realistic scenario, rolling 10-year average CAGR minus TER) compares to a fixed deposit over the same horizon. The default deposit rate is the highest regular 12-month rate in our data; you can override it.

Amount (€)

Period (years)

Deposit rate (% per year)

Assumptions: ETF compounds at its annual CAGR; deposit compounds at the chosen rate. Taxes are not modeled. ETF returns are not guaranteed.

Range of future outcomes

The median uses the first selected ETF's long-term CAGR; the shaded band uses its historical volatility. This illustrates uncertainty and is not a forecast.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions about the ETF comparison 5

Is this a VWCE calculator?

Yes. Pick VWCE (Vanguard FTSE All-World UCITS ETF Acc.) in one of the slots above to see its historical return, volatility and max drawdown, compare it against a bank deposit, or run a full monthly-contribution projection in the investment calculator.

How often is the data updated?

Prices are pulled from daily closes (source: Yahoo Finance) and refreshed daily.

Does the comparison account for fees?

Each fund's TER (annual cost) is already reflected in its price history, and we deduct it again in the scenario simulator for a conservative estimate.

Is this financial advice?

No. The comparison is informational, based on historical data that does not predict future performance, and is not financial advice.

Notes and limitations

ETF returns are not guaranteed; the value of an investment may also fall. The figures are based on historical data, which doesn't predict future performance.
CAGR is computed from closes in the listing currency. Different share classes / listings of the same fund may produce different numbers due to currency effects.
TER is the fund's annual cost and is already reflected in the price movement; we deduct it again in our scenario simulator for conservatism.
Tax treatment (capital gains, dividends) depends on the product and your circumstances and is not modeled in this comparison.
