Key Summary

VGAD

Strategy

RSSL.AX was created on 2025-02-10 by Global X. The fund's investment portfolio concentrates primarily on small cap equity. The investment objective of the Fund is to provide investors with a return that (before fees and expenses) tracks the performance of the Russell 2000 RIC Capped Index.

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.
