Vanguard Australian Fixed Interest ETF VAF Strategy

The Fund aims to hold an appropriate number of fixed and floating rate securities so as to produce a portfolio risk exposure consistent with that of the index. This is generally achieved by holding a representative sample of the securities included in the index or securities that provide similar characteristics to those securities in the index. Vanguard selects the securities it holds based on liquidity, access to markets, portfolio cash-flow and minimum trade quantities with the aim of tracking the return of the index.
The investment objective & strategy is a summary of the investment's principal strategy as written in the prospectus. This information is pulled from the most recent product disclosure document.
