Vanguard Global Aggregate Bond UCITS ETF EUR Hedged Accumulating is an exchange-traded fund designed to provide broad exposure to global investment-grade bonds while minimizing currency risk for euro-based investors. The ETF's primary objective is to mirror the performance of the Bloomberg Global Aggregate Float Adjusted and Scaled (EUR Hedged) index, which encompasses a diverse range of government and corporate bonds issued worldwide across various maturities, all rated as investment grade.
