Vanguard Global Aggregate Bond UCITS ETF USD Hdg Acc

Objectives: The Fund employs a passive management - or indexing - investment approach, through physical acquisition of securities, and seeks to track the performance of the Bloomberg Global Aggregate Float Adjusted and Scaled Index (the "Index"). The Fund invests in a representative sample of bonds included in the Index in order to closely match the Index's capital and income return. The Index is a widely recognised benchmark designed to reflect the characteristics of the total global aggregated bond universe of investment grade global government, government related agencies, corporate and securitised fixed income investments with maturities greater than one year. To a lesser extent the Fund may invest in similar types of bonds outside the Index, but whose risk and return characteristics closely resemble the risk and return characteristics of constituents of the Index or of the Index as a whole. The Fund attempts to remain fully invested except in extraordinary market, political or similar conditions where the Fund may temporarily depart from this investment policy to avoid losses.While the Fund is expected to track the Index as closely as possible, it typically will not match the performance of the targeted Index exactly, due to various factors such as expenses to be paid by the Fund and regulatory constraints. Details of these factors and the anticipated tracking error of the Fund are set out in the Prospectus.Information on the Fund's portfolio can be found at https://www.ie.vanguard/products. The Indicative Net Asset Value for the Fund is calculated throughout the trading day and is published on Bloomberg or Reuters. The Fund may use derivatives in order to reduce risk or cost and/or generate extra income or growth. A derivative is a financial contract whose value is based on the value of a financial asset (such as a share, bond, or currency) or a market index. ETF Shares in the Fund can be bought or sold on a daily basis (save on certain bank holidays or public
