About VHGEX

This fund invests in companies of various sizes from all over the globe, with the United States representing about 50% of its assets. The portfolio is made up of 500-plus stocks from more than 30 countries. The fund’s multi-manager approach—the fund uses two investment advisors that follow distinct investment approaches—can add additional diversification. In addition to stock market risk, however, the fund is also subject to currency risk and country risk. Long-term investors seeking global equity exposure and who are comfortable with the added volatility in international investing may wish to consider this fund.
