Non-US Investing • Strategic advantage to holding 3 ETFs vs just VWRA?

$

Hi All,

Interested to get your thoughts on an alternative approach to holding VWRA by splitting it into 3 parts:

60% VUSA (TER 0.07%)
30% Xtrackers MSCI World ex USA UCITS ETF 1C (TER 0.15%)
10% iShares Core MSCI Emerging Markets IMI UCITS ETF (TER 0.18%)

This setup would be cheaper than VWRA's TER of 0.22% and yes, while managing 3 ETFs will require more work rebalancing close to VWRA’s weights, but would there be an advantage when it comes to retirement withdrawals?

By holding 3 ETFs, would there be an advantage to sell your ETFs more strategically based on market performance?

For example, if the U.S. market performed well but EM and EX-US markets fall, you could sell from only the VUSA ETF and potentially maximizing gains?

Interested to hear your thoughts!
