Vanguard Intermediate-Term Treasury Fund (the Fund) seeks to provide a moderate and sustainable level of current income.
The fund actively manages a portfolio weighted toward U.S. Treasury securities with a dollar-weighted average maturity of 5 to 10 years, seeking to generate current income. It holds at least 80% of assets in Treasury bills, bonds, and notes, with the remainder available for agency securities, mortgage-backed securities, and derivatives including options, futures, and swaps. Because security selection depends on active management decisions, fund returns may diverge from those of a passive Treasury index.

How it has done
VFITX share class · total returns with dividends reinvested
Volatility over the last 12 months: 3.46%. Past returns are a record, not a forecast.
Jun 2026 and Jul 2026 have been filed since the trailing figures were struck, so they are not in the table above or the curve — every figure here shares one cut-off, which is what makes them comparable with other funds.
The 2 share classes hold the same portfolio
| Share class | Expense ratio | 1 year | 3 years | 5 years | Worst fall |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.20% | +3.62% | +10.55% | +0.51% | -4.26% | |
| 0.10% | +3.73% | +10.88% | +1.02% | -4.22% |
These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 0.50pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 0.10pp a year — not a difference in what they own.

Debt profile
What this fund holds — value-weighted across its bond and securitized long positions · as of 2026-04-30
Share of the fund's debt by how its coupon behaves — the fact that decides whether a rate move reaches this portfolio at all.
| Fixed rate | 91.4% |
| Zero-coupon or unclassified | 4.4% |
| Floating rate | 4.2% |
Share of the fund's debt value in each maturity band, shortest first.
| 3-5y | 35.5% |
| 5-10y | 56.5% |
| 10y+ | 8.0% |
Based on what filers reported; a filer that never reported a flag also reads as none.
Risk profile
Interest-rate and credit-spread sensitivity, both in years · as of 2026Q2
Most of this fund’s sensitivity is to interest rates, with credit spreads carrying a small fraction as much.
Where the loss would come from. The two shocks are the same size, so this is the balance of the fund's two sensitivities rather than a bet on one moving more.
| Interest rates | 89% |
| Credit spreads | 11% |
Filers report the impact of a 0.01% move only, so the total is our own scaling of that one number and overstates the loss on most bonds — read it as approximate, never as precise. The two sensitivities overlap rather than add up: they measure the same positions against different shocks, which is why the durations above are shown side by side and never summed.
Share of the fund's spread duration carried by each credit tier.
| Investment grade | +0.66 yr |
Share of duration at each point, shortest first. A positive figure loses value when spreads widen; a negative one offsets — a credit hedge.
| 3 mo | 0.18 yr | 3% |
| 1 yr | 0.48 yr | 9% |
| 5 yr | 3.12 yr | 58% |
| 10 yr | 1.55 yr | 29% |
| 30 yr | 0.02 yr | 0% |
| 3 mo | 0.00 yr | 0% |
| 1 yr | 0.11 yr | 17% |
| 5 yr | 0.34 yr | 51% |
| 10 yr | 0.19 yr | 29% |
| 30 yr | 0.02 yr | 3% |
The two bands measure the same positions against different shocks and do not add — a Treasury carries rate duration and no spread duration, a floating-rate credit the reverse. Rate tenors are also summed across every currency the fund discloses.
