Asia Pacific ETF that includes Japan

I am aware of VAPX the Asia Pacific ETF that excludes Japan, and of VJPN - Japan only, but does anyone know, is there an ETF that includes both, i.e. Asia Pacific including Japan?

Hi richfool

There's this one which has a cheeky ticker symbol https://investor.vanguard.com/etf/profile/VPL but I don't know if it gives you as much diversity as you are looking for.

Cheers, OLTB.

I would suggest going to justetf.com, click on the ETF screener, then select Equities - Regiion - Asia Pacific. A long list comes up. Many are explicitly ex Japan but some aren't. If you click on ones of the latter type, you should be able to find what its underlying index is.

Unfortunately this is listed in New York and can no longer be bought by retail investors through UK or EU brokers because of the PRIIPs/KIIDs rules.
