Vanguard European Stock Index Fund Admiral Shares

This index fund offers a cost-effective means for investors to gain exposure to European stock markets. It invests in more than 1,200 European companies, together comprising roughly 50% of the non-U.S. equity landscape. In addition to typical equity market fluctuations, the fund is also susceptible to currency fluctuations and may carry a greater degree of country-specific risk than broader international portfolios, due to its sole focus on European economies. For long-term investors seeking exposure to European equities, this fund could be a valuable component within a well-diversified investment strategy.
