Vanguard Global Equity Fund (the Fund) seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation.
The fund employs multiple independent advisors, each selecting and maintaining a portfolio of common stocks across U.S. and foreign markets, spanning developed and emerging economies and the full capitalization spectrum with a mix of value and growth approaches. The fund maintains at least 80% of net assets in equity securities. Because each advisor independently constructs its own portfolio, the fund's aggregate holdings may diverge from any benchmark or from the selections of other advisors.
