VEU Factset Analytics Insight

VEU offers great coverage of its target market. The fund holds a portfolio of global large- and mid-cap stocks outside the US. Avoiding small-caps makes it tilt larger than our all-cap benchmark, and increases concentration slightly. Still, VEU serves as an accurate proxy for the entire international equity market, aligning well with our benchmark by sector and by country. Two Vanguard practices to note: First, the issuer uses fair value NAVs, which minimize apparent premiums and discounts at the expense of apparent (but not actual) tracking variability. Second, Vanguard discloses holdings monthly with a lag, rather than daily.
