Vanguard International Dividend Appreciation Index Fund (the Fund) seeks to track the performance of a benchmark index that measures the investment return of non-U.S. companies that have a history of increasing dividends.
The fund tracks the S&P Global Ex-U.S. Dividend Growers Index by holding all or substantially all of its constituent stocks in the same weights, focusing on developed and emerging market companies outside the United States that demonstrate a history of increasing dividends. Because the fund replicates the index rather than sampling it, its returns will closely track the index. The fund may become concentrated in particular issuers or industries if the underlying index does, particularly following rebalances or significant market movements.

How it has done
VIGI share class · total returns with dividends reinvested
Volatility over the last 12 months: 12.46%. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.16% | +7.66% | +36.88% | +26.20% | -9.15% | |
| 0.07% | +7.72% | +37.04% | +26.21% | -9.14% |
These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 0.01pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 0.00pp a year — not a difference in what they own.
