Vanguard International Growth Fund (the Fund) seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation.
The fund employs multiple independent investment advisors who actively select stocks of large-, mid-, and small-capitalization companies outside the United States, focusing on those with above-average growth potential across developed and emerging markets. Because each advisor independently constructs its own portfolio, the fund's overall holdings and performance may diverge from any single advisor's approach.

How it has done
VWIGX share class · total returns with dividends reinvested
Volatility over the last 12 months: 14.81%. Past returns are a record, not a forecast.
The 2 share classes hold the same portfolio
| Share class | Expense ratio | 1 year | 3 years | 5 years | Worst fall |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.38% | +13.06% | +45.01% | +5.41% | -18.04% | |
| 0.26% | +13.19% | +45.49% | +5.99% | -18.02% |
These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 0.58pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 0.12pp a year — not a difference in what they own.
