The Vanguard ETF seeks to track, to the extent reasonably possible and before fees and expenses, the performance of a broad global bond index, which Index is hedged to the Canadian dollar. Currently, the Vanguard ETF seeks to track the Bloomberg Barclays Global Aggregate Float Adjusted Composite Index (CAD-Hedged) (or any successor thereto).
In order to achieve its investment objective, the Vanguard ETF may hold a broadly diversified subset of Constituent Securities and/or other securities selected by the Sub-advisor that, in the aggregate, approximates the applicable Index in terms of primary risk factors and other key index characteristics and/or other Canadian Vanguard ETFs, U.S.-domiciled Vanguard Funds or other investment funds that singly or in combination seek to track the Index or an unhedged version of the Index.
