VANGUARD BD INDEX FDS

About

The Vanguard Short-Term Bond ETF seeks to track the performance of the Bloomberg U.S. 1-5 Year Government/Credit Float Adjusted Index. This fund invests in investment-grade U.S. government, corporate, and international dollar-denominated bonds with maturities between one and five years. Its focus on high-quality, short-duration securities aims to provide current income with lower sensitivity to interest rate fluctuations than broader bond market funds.
