Overview
Vanguard funds are better investments by design. We only launch products that have enduring investment merit, fulfill long-term client needs, and have a compelling advantage over competitors. As a result, 91% of our actively managed funds have outperformed the average returns of their peer groups over 10 years.1
Vanguard's disciplined approach applies to our full suite of products across regions, asset classes, and investment styles—including alternative, ESG, and factor-driven strategies.
1 For the 10-year period, 6 of 6 Vanguard money market funds, 42 of 44 bond funds, 5 of 5 balanced funds, and 33 of 39 stock funds, or 86 of 94 Vanguard active funds outperformend their peer-group averages. All data as of December 31, 2023. Results will vary for other time periods. Only funds with a minimum 10-year history were included in the comparison.
