About Vanguard
Vanguard Investments Canada Inc. is a wholly owned indirect subsidiary
of The Vanguard Group, Inc. and manages more than $1 billion (CAD) in
assets. The Vanguard Group, Inc. is one of the world’s largest
investment management companies and a leading provider of
company-sponsored retirement plan services. Vanguard manages more than
$2.8 trillion (USD) in global assets, including $300 billion (USD) in
global ETF assets. Vanguard has offices in the United States, Canada,
Europe, Australia and Asia. The firm offers more than 160 funds to U.S.
investors and more than 100 additional funds, including ETFs, to clients
in the other markets in which the firm operates.
Vanguard operates under a unique operating structure. Unlike firms that
are publicly held or owned by a small group of individuals, The Vanguard
Group is owned by Vanguard’s US-domiciled funds and ETFs. Those funds,
in turn, are owned by Vanguard clients. This unique mutual structure
aligns Vanguard interests with those of its investors and drives the
culture, philosophy, and policies throughout the Vanguard organization
worldwide. As a result, Canadian investors benefit from Vanguard’s
stability and experience, low-cost investing, and client focus. For more
information, please visit vanguardcanada.ca.
All asset figures are as of November 30, 2013, unless otherwise noted.
Commissions, management fees, and expenses all may be associated with
the Vanguard ETFs. This offering is only made by prospectus. The
prospectus contains important detailed information about the securities
being offered. Copies are available from Vanguard Investments
Canada Inc. at www.vanguardcanada.ca.
Please read the prospectus before investing. ETFs are not guaranteed,
their values change frequently, and past performance may not be repeated.
