Vanguard International Core Stock Fund Investor Shares
FundVWICXNASDAQAbout
This actively managed fund provides comprehensive exposure to companies operating in both established and developing international markets, outside of the United States. Its holdings are strategically diversified across a broad spectrum of industries. The fund's professional managers seek to build a balanced portfolio by combining growth-oriented and value-oriented investment styles, positioning it as a foundational component for investors building a globally diversified allocation. Due to its concentration in non-U.S. equities, this investment vehicle may experience greater price fluctuations compared to a fund focused solely on domestic stocks. It offers an appealing solution for investors who desire a single, expertly managed fund to gain broad access to international developed and emerging stock markets.
