Seasonality
The Vanguard Emerging Markets Government Bond Index Fund ETF Shares (VWOB) employs a passive indexing strategy designed to replicate the performance of its target benchmark. The fund uses a sampling process to select investments and, under normal market conditions, holds at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in bonds included in the underlying index. The fund is structured as non-diversified, meaning it may concentrate its holdings in a relatively limited number of issuers compared to diversified funds.
As an emerging markets bond ETF, VWOB primarily invests in sovereign debt issued by governments in developing economies, which typically carries higher yields than developed-market government bonds in exchange for greater credit and currency risk. Launched in 2013, the fund falls within the mid-cap market segment based on assets under management, and as an exchange-traded fund, it trades intraday on the NASDAQ at market prices rather than only at end-of-day net asset value.
