About this fund
Fund objectives
Vanguard Growth ETF Portfolio seeks to provide long-term capital growth by investing in equity and fixed income securities.
Why this fund
- Seeks to achieve its investment objective by primarily investing in equity and fixed income securities. It may do so either directly or indirectly through investment in one or more exchange traded funds managed by the manager or an affiliate or certain other investment funds.
- In seeking to achieve the investment objective (under normal market conditions), the sub-advisor will strive to maintain a long-term strategic asset allocation of equity (approximately 80%) and fixed income (approximately 20%) securities. The portfolio asset mix may be reconstituted and rebalanced from time to time at the discretion of the sub-advisor.
- The underlying funds are expected to be index funds that provide exposure to broad-based equity and fixed income markets.
