The Vanguard Short-Term Treasury Index Fund ETF (VGSH) is a passively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks to replicate the performance of the Bloomberg US Treasury 1-3 Year Index. The index consists of U.S. Treasury fixed income securities with maturities between one and three years, excluding inflation-protected securities, floating rate notes, and certain other security types. At least 80% of the funds assets are invested in bonds included in the underlying index.
As a short-duration government bond ETF, VGSH offers investors targeted exposure to the front end of the U.S. Treasury yield curve through a passive indexing approach. The fund operates within Vanguards low-cost fund structure, a business model focused on tracking benchmark performance rather than active security selection, making it a common building block for conservative fixed income portfolios and cash management strategies.
