Trustees Approve Advisory Arrangement - FTSE Social Index Fund
A majority of independent trustees of the board of Vanguard FTSE Social Index Fund (Trustees) have renewed the fund’s investment advisory arrangement with The Vanguard Group, Inc. (Vanguard), which provides investment advisory services to the fund through its subsidiary, Vanguard Portfolio Management LLC (VPM). The trustees determined that continuing the advisory arrangement was in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders.
The Trustees based their decisions upon an evaluation of VPM’s investment staff, portfolio management process, and performance. This evaluation included information provided by Vanguard’s Oversight and Manager Search team, which is responsible for fund and advisor oversight and product management.
The Oversight and Manager Search team met regularly with the advisor and made presentations to the Trustees during the fiscal year that directed the Trustees’ focus to relevant information and topics.
The board, or an investment committee made up of Trustees, also received information throughout the year during advisor presentations conducted by the Oversight and Manager Search team. For each advisor presentation, the Trustees were provided with letters and reports that included information about, among other things, the advisory firm and the advisor’s assessment of the investment environment, portfolio performance, and portfolio characteristics.
In addition, the Trustees received periodic reports throughout the year, which included information about the fund’s performance relative to its peers and benchmark, as applicable, and updates, as needed, on the Oversight and Manager Search team’s ongoing assessment of the advisor.
Prior to their meeting, the trustees were provided with a memo and materials that summarized the information they received over the course of the year. The Trustees considered the factors discussed below, among others. However, no single factor determined whether to approve the arrangement. Rather, it was the totality of the circumstances that drove the Trustee’s decisions.
Nature, extent, and quality of services
The Trustees considered the quality of the fund’s investment management services over both the short and long term and took into account the organizational depth and stability of Vanguard and VPM. The Trustees considered that Vanguard has been managing investments for more than four decades. The Strategic Equity Index Management team (SE), now within VPM, adheres to the same sound, disciplined investment management process and has considerable experience, stability and depth. In its management of other Vanguard passive and active equity funds and portfolios, the team has a track record of consistent performance as a result of its disciplined investment processes. SE has specific expertise and experience managing U.S. style-box, sector, and smart-beta index strategies, effectively navigating index reconstitutions and mitigating transactions costs to deliver tight tracking error while opportunistically seeking to add excess returns through sophisticated trading strategies and superior access to corporate actions.
The Trustees concluded that VPM’s experience, stability, depth, and performance, among other factors, warranted continuation of the advisory arrangement.
Investment performance
The Trustees considered the fund’s short- and long-term performance, including any periods of outperformance or underperformance compared with a relevant benchmark index and peer group. The Trustees concluded the performance was such that the advisory arrangement should continue.
Cost
The Trustees concluded that the fund’s expense ratio was below the average expense ratio charged by funds in its peer group and that the fund’s advisory expenses were also below the peer-group average.
The Trustees do not conduct a profitability analysis of Vanguard in providing investment advisory services through VPM because of Vanguard’s unique structure. Unlike most other mutual fund management companies, Vanguard is owned by the funds it oversees.
The benefit of economies of scale
The Trustees concluded that the fund’s arrangement with Vanguard, and services rendered through VPM, ensure that the fund will realize economies of scale as it grows, with the cost to shareholders declining as fund assets increase.
The Trustees will consider whether to renew the advisory arrangement again within a one-year period.
Trustees Approve Advisory Arrangements - Morningstar Mega Cap Index Funds
