What is IJPA?
IJPA is iShares Core MSCI Japan IMI UCITS ETF, the European-listed product BestFolio uses when translating VPL. Most targets are UCITS ETFs; some commodity and leveraged targets are UCITS-eligible ETCs or ETPs instead. Product structure and retail eligibility must be checked for the exact ISIN.
No exact FTSE Developed Asia Pacific UCITS. Composite rebuilds the full region: ~60% Japan (IJPA) + ~40% Pacific ex-Japan (CPXJ), approximate market-cap split. Single-fund alternative: AVPE (Avantis Pacific Equity UCITS, Xetra/Munich) covers the whole region incl. Japan but is systematically active. Upgraded from Japan-only IJPA 2026-07-17 (#3007, Vadim Hesin request). The source ticker has 1x exposure and the mapped target has 1x exposure, so BestFolio can flag leverage differences during allocation translation.
