What does Invesco S&P 500 UCITS ETF Acc do?

This fund tracks the S&P 500 index, meaning it mirrors the performance of the 500 largest companies in the United States, with a heavy leaning towards technology and finance. Instead of paying cash into your pocket, any dividends generated by these massive firms are automatically reinvested straight back into the fund to help it grow, which is known as being accumulating. The ongoing charge is a tiny 0.05% a year, which works out at about fifty pence annually for every thousand pounds you have tucked away inside it.
