Vanguard Canadian Ultra-Short Government Bond Index ETF

The fund is passively managed to provide exposure to the ultra-short segment of the Canadian Treasury bond market. The index comprises public, investment grade, CAD-denominated nominal Treasury bills and bonds with less than 365 days to maturity. It excludes real return bonds, STRIPS, hypothetical bonds, and floating-rate bonds. Holdings are weighted by market value and are float-adjusted to reflect the Government of Canadas Purchase Program. The fund uses a sampling approach to track the index, meaning it invests in securities that approximate the overall portfolio characteristics of the index.
