About Vanguard


With more than AUD $11 trillion in assets under management Vanguard is one of the world's largest investment management companies.

Vanguard Australia has been serving institutional and individual investors, superannuation members and financial advisers for over 20 years, helping Australian's achieve their long-term financial goals for over 20 years


Driven by a core purpose to take a stand for investors, treat them fairly and give them the best chance of investment success Vanguard offers a comprehensive range of investment solutions that are low-cost, diversified and enduring.

More than 45 years ago, John C. Bogle had a bold vision to start an investment company that did things differently. A company with no external shareholders. Where all the profits were invested back into the business and used to lower costs. Evidently, it was as bold as it was brilliant. To this day, Vanguard Group still has no external shareholders. That means no share prices to protect, and no profits to generate for outside owners.

Today, Vanguard is one of the world's largest investment management companies, serving more than 50 million investors worldwide. In Australia, Vanguard supports institutional and individual investors, financial advisers, and superannuation members to achieve their long-term financial goals.
