VDIG ETF Profile

Family:	Vanguard
Name:	Vanguard Wellington Dividend Growth Active ETF

Inception Date:	14-Nov-2025
Termination Date:
Investment Objective:	The Fund employs an active management approach, investing primarily in stocks that tend to offer current dividends. The Fund focuses on stocks of high-quality companies that have prospects for long-term total returns as a result of their ability to grow earnings and their willingness to increase dividends over time. These stocks typically (but not always) are large-cap, undervalued relative to the market, and show potential for increasing dividends. The Fund seeks to invest broadly across industry sectors. It is a concentrated equity strategy with 20-40 holdings stocks and low turnover that is defensive in nature. Its defensive approach derives from a focus on high quality companies committed to shareholder return, strong balance sheets, and a propensity to pay and grow their dividends. VDIG will use the S&P U.S. Dividend Growers Index as its benchmark.
