Frequently Asked Questions
- Does trading EWJ give me any of the rights of owning shares in the MSCI Japan ETF?
- No. EWJ is a synthetic perpetual with no delivery mechanism or arbitrage bridge to the ETF's actual shares. It gives price exposure only — there are no shareholder rights, no dividends, no creation/redemption rights, and no claim on the underlying fund.
- Where is The iShares MSCI Japan ETF listed, and in what currency does EWJ trade?
- The iShares MSCI Japan ETF is listed on a U.S. exchange and trades in U.S. dollars. EWJ's price already reflects that USD-denominated ETF share, with no currency conversion involved.
- How is EWJ different from other names, like JP225?
- EWJ tracks a U.S.-listed ETF share, already priced in USD. JP225, by contrast, tracks the Japan 225 index directly at its native JPY level, with no currency conversion — two different ways of getting exposure to Japanese equities.
- What index does the MSCI Japan ETF track?
- The fund tracks the MSCI Japan Index, a float-adjusted index covering roughly 85% of Japan's free float-adjusted market capitalization across large- and mid-cap companies.
