Key Summary

BCOM

VGAD

Strategy

BCOM.AX was created on 2023-07-05 by Global X. The fund's investment portfolio concentrates primarily on broad market commodities. The investment objective of the Fund is to provide investors with a return, that tracks the performance of the Bloomberg Commodity Index Excess Return 3 Month Forward, plus earn interest returns through exposure to cash and/or money market instruments (before fees and expenses).

The aim of Vanguard MSCI Index International Shares (Hedged) ETF is to track the return of the MSCI World ex-Australia (with net dividends reinvested) before considering fees, expenses, and tax. It also seeks to reduce the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations on the fund's performance by hedging it to the Australian dollar.
