VIPSX Overview

On this page you'll find an in-depth profile of Vanguard Inflation-protected Securities Fund Investor Shares. Learn about the key management, total assets, investment strategy and contact information of VIPSX among other information.

Investment Strategy

The investment seeks to provide inflation protection and income consistent with investment in inflation-indexed securities. The fund invests at least 80% of its assets in inflation-indexed bonds issued by the U.S. government, its agencies and instrumentalities, and corporations. It may invest in bonds of any maturity; however, its dollar-weighted average maturity is generally expected to be in the range of 7 to 20 years. At a minimum, all bonds purchased by the fund will be rated investment-grade or, if unrated, will be considered by the advisor to be investment-grade.
