Vanguard Long-Term Treasury Index Fund ETF Shares Company profile

The investment seeks to track the performance of a market-weighted Treasury index with a long-term dollar-weighted average maturity. This index includes fixed income securities issued by the U.S. Treasury (not including inflation-protected bonds, floating rate securities and certain other security types), with maturities greater than 10 years. As such, interest rate exposure for this product will be towards the high end, potentially creating an attractive yield profile; VGIT offers exposure to mid-dated Treasuries while VGSH is an option for those looking to focus on the short end of the maturity curve. But this ETF can be a useful tool for tilting exposure towards Treasuries with a bias towards the longer end of the maturity spectrum, lengthening the effective duration of a portfolio and potentially boosting the yield without taking on much in the way of credit risk.
