Investment Strategy
The fund seeks to provide returns consistent with the performance of the Barclays Capital Global Aggregate U.K. Government Bond Index, a market-weighted index of the U.K. Government fixed-income securities denominated in Pound Sterling.
The fund employs a "passive management" or indexing strategy designed to track the performance of the Index, which is a subset of the Barclays Capital Global Aggregate Bond Index. This market-weighted Index is designed to reflect the total universe of pound sterling-denominated United Kingdom treasury and government-related securities with maturities greater than one year.
This fund tracks the Bloomberg Barclays UK Government Float Adjusted Bond index. It invests in most UK government bond issues across all maturities. Income is distributed quarterly.
The fund is run by a very experienced and well-resourced team from Vanguard, the second-biggest provider of exchange-traded funds. It is competitively priced, with ongoing charges of 0.12% and an accurate tracker to gain exposure to the UK conventional gilts market.
