SPDW vs VXUS: Is a State Street or Vanguard International ETF the Better Fit for Your Portfolio?

The State Street SPDR Portfolio Developed World ex-US ETF (NYSEMKT:SPDW) focuses strictly on developed economies with a razor-thin fee, while the Vanguard Total International Stock ETF (NASDAQ:VXUS) provides broader global coverage by including emerging markets. Both State Street SPDR Portfolio Developed World ex-US ETF and Vanguard Total International Stock ETF serve as core building blocks for international equity exposure. While the SPDR fund targets developed markets to maintain a lower cost profile, the Vanguard fund provides a much wider net. With $163.2 billion in assets under management (AUM), the Vanguard fund is significantly larger, though both offer deep liquidity for long-term investors.
