Strategy

Vanguard FTSE Asia ex Japan Shares Index ETF objective is to track the performance of the FTSE Asia Pacific ex Japan, Australia and New Zealand Index (with net dividends reinvested) in Australian dollars before accounting for fees, expenses and tax.

LEND.AX was created on 2024-01-31 by VanEck. The fund's investment portfolio concentrates primarily on broad credit fixed income. The Fund aims to provide investment returns before fees and other costs which track the performance of its Reference Index in Australian dollars. The Fund does not necessarily aim to perfectly replicate the Reference Index on a one-to-one basis.
