Vanguard International Growth Fund Investor Shares

The International Growth Fund focuses on non-U.S. companies with high growth potential. Created in 1981, the fund employs an aggressive approach that attempts to capitalize on global economic expansion. For example, an attractive investment opportunity could be a non-U.S. consumer-products company that is experiencing rapid earnings growth. Because it invests in non-U.S. stocks, including those in developed and emerging markets, the fund can be more volatile than a domestic fund. Investors may wish to consider investing in this fund as a complement to an already diversified stock portfolio.
