Vanguard Australian Property Securities ETF - Managed Fund

Fund Objective
The fund seeks to track the return of the S&P/ASX 300 A-REIT Index before taking into account fees, expenses, and tax.
Fund Strategy
The Fund will hold or be exposed to most of the securities in the S&P/ASX 300 A-REIT Index allowing for individual security weightings to vary marginally from the Index from time to time. The Fund may invest in securities that have been removed from or are expected to be included in the Index. The Fund may also hold securities that are not in the Index where we identify opportunities to gain exposure to securities currently or expected to be included in the Index, where we consider that to be in the interests of unitholders.
