“Vanguard believes investors have the best chance of investment success through putting together broadly-diversified, balanced portfolios and holding them for the long-term. As investors have increasingly voted with their feet in favour of low-cost, investment products, we have seen growing, and increasingly global demand for our equity and fixed income UCITS ETF range.
“In particular, investors world-wide value the transparency and regulatory oversight that the UCITS regime provides. The Vanguard US Treasury 0-1 Year Bond UCITS ETF is an important addition to our UCITS ETF range, and another part of the puzzle in helping to meet the evolving needs of long-term investors across many countries.”
