What Is VGAB?
Vanguard Global Aggregate Bond Index ETF (CAD-hedged) 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, this Vanguard ETF seeks to track the Bloomberg Global Aggregate Float Adjusted Composite Index (CAD-Hedged) (or any successor thereto). It invests directly or indirectly primarily in a wide spectrum of the global investment-grade, fixed rate, fixed income markets and uses derivative instruments to seek to hedge the foreign currency exposure of the securities included in the Bloomberg Global Aggregate Float Adjusted Composite Index to the Canadian dollar.
Set it, forget it, let compounding do the heavy lifting. ๐ช
