(BND) Vanguard Total Bond Market - Ratings and Ratios
Bonds, Government, Corporate, Mortgage-Backed, Asset-Backed
Description: BND Vanguard Total Bond Market
The Vanguard Total Bond Market Index Fund ETF (NASDAQ:BND) tracks a broad U.S. investment-grade, taxable bond universe, covering government, corporate, international dollar-denominated, mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities with maturities longer than one year. The fund employs a sampling methodology, and at least 80 % of its assets must be held in the underlying index constituents.
Key metrics (as of Q3 2025) include an expense ratio of 0.03 %, a weighted-average maturity of roughly 8 years, and a distribution yield near 4.2 %. The portfolio’s average credit quality is A-, reflecting its focus on investment-grade issuers.
Performance drivers are dominated by U.S. monetary policy and inflation expectations: a rising Fed funds rate typically compresses bond prices, while lower inflation can support higher real yields. Additionally, the ETF’s exposure to mortgage-backed securities adds a modest prepayment risk component that tends to rise when interest rates fall.
