Vanguard U.S. Dividend Appreciation Index ETF (CAD-hedged)

Vanguard U.S. Dividend Appreciation Index ETF (CAD-hedged) seeks to track, to the extent reasonably possible and before fees and expenses, the performance of a U.S. equity index that measures the investment return of common stocks of U.S. companies that have a record of increasing dividends over time, which Index is hedged to the Canadian dollar. Currently, this Vanguard ETF seeks to track the S&P U.S. Dividend Growers Index (CAD-hedged) (or any successor thereto). It invests directly or indirectly primarily in stocks of U.S. companies and uses derivative instruments to seek to hedge the U.S. dollar exposure of the securities included in the S&P U.S. Dividend Growers Index to the Canadian dollar.
