- Franklin FTSE Switzerland ETF (FLSW) is an exchange-traded fund that seeks to provide investment results corresponding to the performance of the FTSE Switzerland RIC Capped Index, a market-cap weighted benchmark of large- and mid-cap Swiss companies, before fees and expenses. The fund invests at least 80% of its assets in component securities of the index, including equities across sectors such as health care (36%), financials (21%), consumer staples (14%), industrials (12%), and materials (8%), with approximately 55 holdings and a non-diversified portfolio structure; it offers semi-annual dividends, trades on NYSE Arca under ticker FLSW (CUSIP 35473P694), and maintains a low expense ratio of 0.09%. Launched on February 6, 2018, by Franklin Resources, Inc. through Franklin Templeton ETF Trust, headquartered in San Mateo, California, FLSW targets investors seeking passive exposure to the Swiss equity market, primarily institutional and retail participants via secondary market trading or creation units. The ETF operates within the miscellaneous region category, focusing on Swiss-domiciled public equities in growth and value styles across diversified market capitalizations, with weighted average market cap of $141 billion and P/E ratio of around 23x. Franklin Templeton, the fund family and manager (with portfolio managers including Dina Ting since inception), provides full daily holdings transparency and supports U.S. investors through its broader ETF lineup. Recent developments at Franklin Templeton, the ETF's issuer, include multiple ETF launches such as the Franklin Solana ETF (SOEZ) in December 2025, Franklin XRP ETF (XRPZ) in November 2025, and expansions in digital assets like the Crypto Index ETF (EZPZ); strategic partnerships, notably with Wand AI for agentic AI in asset management (November 2025) and Binance for digital assets (September 2025); the completion of Apera Asset Management acquisition (October 2025); and liquidations of select ETFs like ClearBridge Sustainable Infrastructure ETF (December 2025) and Franklin FTSE Hong Kong ETF (May 2025). FLSW itself paid a dividend of $0.827 per share in June 2025 (ex-date June 20) and continues semi-annual distributions amid stable assets around $52 million. No specific reorganizations or name changes affect FLSW directly, though Franklin Templeton has broadened its active ETF strategies and infrastructure partnerships.
