How your fund can affect your taxes

A fund's capital gains and losses can reveal the tax implications of holding a particular fund in a taxable account. This is true of both realized and unrealized capital gains and losses.

These tax implications don't apply to investors holding a fund in a tax-deferred account, such as an IRA or employer-sponsored retirement plan.

Fund management

Vanguard Global Wellesley Income Fund seeks long-term growth of income, a high and sustainable level of current income, and moderate long-term capital appreciation by investing in high-quality bonds and stocks. The fund seeks to provide an attractive and stable income stream that increases over time, with moderate capital appreciation and moderate risk.

Fixed Income Component: May invest in U.S. and foreign investment-grade fixed income securities that the advisor believes will generate a reasonable level of current income, including corporate, U.S. Treasury, and government agency bonds, as well as mortgage-backed securities. The fund advisor adds value through active management, such as adjusting sector weightings, regional allocations, and curve positioning in response to market opportunities.

Equity Component: Focuses on common stocks of U.S. and foreign companies that have a history of above-average dividends or expectations of increasing dividends. Using fundamental research, the advisor typically invests in fewer than 100 stocks, generally with low price/earnings and price/book ratios, and stable or improving fundamentals.
