Vanguard FTSE All-World e... (VFWAX)

About VFWAX

This index fund provides investors with low-cost exposure to stock markets located outside the United States. The fund seeks to track an index that consists of companies located in developed markets, including Europe, the Pacific, and Canada, and in emerging markets. In addition to stock market risk, the fund is also subject to currency risk and country risk. Because of its exposure to emerging markets, the fund can be more volatile than other international funds. Long-term investors seeking exposure to non-U.S. markets may wish to consider this fund as part of a diversified portfolio.
