I've just checked my pillar's asset allocation in finpension. Back then I've decided for the "Global 100" strategy with a Credit Suisse index fund. Now I realized that this is not so global after all - it contains 40% Switzerland, where the real global share of Switzerland is at around 2-3%. The same is true for the UBS and Swisscanto funds.
I'm trying to apply my own strategy, as it seems that none of the index funds really offer a global share (like Vanguard Total ETF for example does).
Has anybody done something similar already and has some insights to share?
Edit #1
I found some data in the FTSE Global All Cap Index fact sheet. From the market cap, large caps have 74%, mid caps 16% and small caps 10%. So even here the given Global 100 strategy from finpension, they are biased towards small caps (20%) vs large&mid caps (80%) instead of 10:90.
Now I know how to allocate CH (all caps) and Developed World ex CH (all caps).
Edit #2
For the emerging vs developed market, I found some data in the VT Total World Stock fact sheet. According to this, emerging markets take a 10% of the world market. Also, Switzerland has a global market share of 2.2%
With this in mind, I think I would go for this asset allocation:
What do you think, what do you do with your pillar 3a asset allocation?

With this in mind, I think I would go for this asset allocation:
- 79% Developed World ex CH, Large and Mid cap (e.g. CH0429081620)
- 8.3% Developed World ex CH, Small cap (e.g. CH0214967314)
- 2.2% CH all caps (e.g. CH0031341875)
- 10.5% Emerging World, Large and Mid cap (e.g. CH0017844686)
