Primary advisor
Vanguard Investments Canada, Inc.
The fund provides exposure to a wide spectrum of global investment grade, fixed rate bonds outside the US through a passively-managed, index-sampling strategy. This means that the sub-advisor matches the funds investments to the primary risk factors and other key characteristics of the underlying index. Bonds held in the portfolio include government, government agency, corporate and securitized fixed income investments. Such securities are all issued in currencies other than the USD and have a maturity greater than one year. Holdings are selected and weighted by market value. The fund uses derivative instruments to hedge any foreign currency exposure back to CAD.
