Vanguard FTSE All-World ex-US Small-Cap Index Fund Admiral Shares

This index fund provides investors low-cost exposure to stocks of small-capitalization companies in non-U.S. markets. The fund seeks to track an index of smaller companies located in developed markets, including Europe, the Pacific, and Canada, and in emerging markets. In addition to stock market risk, the fund is also subject to currency risk and country risk. The fund may also experience heightened volatility because of its focus on small-cap stocks, which tend to be more volatile than larger stocks. Long-term investors seeking exposure to small-cap, non-U.S. markets may wish to consider this fund as part of an internationally diversified portfolio.
