We have initiated coverage of the Vanguard EUR Government Bond Index fund with a Morningstar Analyst Rating™ of Silver. This passive investment offers exposure to the market of conventional bonds issued by governments sharing the European single currency. The fund is managed by Vanguard’s London-based team. Although the team’s history is relatively short, it is led by a highly experienced manager. Vanguard’s goal is straightforward: to deliver the index’s returns at the lowest possible cost. This fund has been meeting this goal in a consistent manner, while adding a few extra basis points in the process. In addition, the fund’s returns compare well to the average for its Morningstar investment category. It is also very competitively priced; particularly so after the recent lowering of fees. All these factors underpin our positive view on this fund.
