Vanguard Short Duration Bond ETF
Cboe: VSDB
Listed April 03, 2025
This actively managed fund seeks to provide broadly diversified exposure primarily to short-term U.S. investment-grade bond market, including some exposure to structured products such as asset-backed securities. The fund will have the flexibility to invest in below-investment-grade debt and emerging markets to seek additional yield. 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 moderate 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.

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.
