Investment Strategy

The portfolio invests in two Vanguard® international equity index funds. The percentages of the portfolio's assets allocated to each underlying fund are:
Vanguard Developed Markets Index Fund (80%)
Vanguard Emerging Markets Ex-China ETF (20%)

Through its investment in the Vanguard Developed Markets Index Fund, the Portfolio indirectly invests in a broad range of large-, mid-, and small-capitalization stocks located in Canada and major markets across Europe and the Pacific region. The Fund seeks to replicate the FTSE Developed All Cap ex US Index, which represents approximately 3,700 common stocks weighted by market capitalization.

Through its investment in the Vanguard Emerging Markets Ex-China ETF, the Portfolio indirectly invests in large- and mid-cap companies located in advanced and secondary emerging markets around the world, excluding China. The Fund tracks the FTSE Emerging ex-China Index by sampling a diversified collection of securities that collectively approximate the index’s key characteristics, including industry weightings, market capitalization, and financial metrics such as price/earnings ratio and dividend yield.

Investment Risks

The Portfolio is subject to stock market risk, country/regional risk, investment style risk, investing in foreign markets, emerging markets risk, ex-china investing risk, currency risk, indexing risks, nondiversification risk, index concentration risk, index-related risks, and index replicating risk.
