Vanguard Multi-Sector Income Bond ETF

Cboe: VGMS

Listed June 11, 2025

This actively managed fixed income fund seeks to provide broadly diversified exposure across bonds of any credit quality. The low-cost fund invests in U.S. Treasury, corporate bonds, and emerging-market bonds. Using a disciplined, risk-controlled approach, the fund seeks to outperform its benchmark through security selection, sector allocation, and duration decisions. Like other bond funds, the fund is subject to interest rate risk; increases in interest rates may cause the price of the bonds in the portfolio to decrease, reducing the funds net asset value. This fund is expected to have a meaningful allocation to lower-credit-quality securities, so it is also subject to credit risk; negative perceptions about an issuers ability to make its interest or principal payments in a timely manner may cause the price of that bond to decrease. Since the fund invests in all major segments, maturities, and qualities of the fixed income market, investors willing to accept additional risk in their fixed income allocation may consider the fund as a satellite holding.


The Vanguard Multi-Sector Income Bond ETF is a stand alone product and is separate and distinct from the Vanguard Multi-Sector Income Bond Fund (VMSIX and VMSAX). Differences in scale, certain investment processes, and underlying holdings are expected to produce different investment returns by the funds.

About Vanguard

Vanguard was founded in 1975 by John C. Bogle under a, investor-owned** structure. Unlike some other investment management companies, Vanguard is owned by the Vanguard funds, which in turn are owned by the funds' investors. Under other arrangements, mutual funds are products of a management company and serve two constituents-fund owners and company owners.

Today, Vanguard is one of the world's most respected investment management companies offering investments, advice and retirement services, and insights to more than 50 million clients*. Vanguard, which is based in Malvern, Pennsylvania, has offices worldwide and manages more than $9.5 trillion* on behalf of individual investors, institutions, and financial professionals.

Recognizing that investors have diverse investment needs, Vanguard has developed a broad and carefully defined roster of investment portfolios. Each portfolio is managed for specific objectives, follows tightly prescribed strategies, and adheres to well-articulated policies. Vanguard's in-house investment professionals oversee an array of index and actively managed portfolios, and distinguished external managers are retained for specific active mandates.

Vanguard's advice services adhere to a time-tested investment approach of balance, diversification, discipline, and a long-term orientation. This approach, in concert with low-cost funds and ETFs, is designed to provide the potential for superior investment outcomes. Vanguard also seeks to provide its clients with a world-class experience that exceeds their expectations and inspires their loyalty. A crew of nearly 20,000* serves clients with dedication, integrity, and care-guided by a clear purpose: To take a stand for all investors, to treat them fairly, and to give them the best chance for investment success.

*Note: All figures as of June 30, 2024.

**Investor-owned means that Vanguard is owned by its funds, which are owned by Vanguard's fund shareholder clients.
