Don’t try to time rebalancing. When is the right time to rebalance your portfolio? Catherine Gordon of Vanguard Investment Strategy Group and Chuck Riley of Vanguard Advice Services say consider two triggers when looking to rebalance. If your asset allocation has strayed 5 percent or more from your target allocation, or if your time horizon is significantly shorter since the last time you looked at your asset mix, it may be time to rebalance.
All investing is subject to risk, including the possible loss of the money you invest.

Vanguard is one of the world’s largest investment companies, offering a large selection of low-cost mutual funds, ETFs, advice, and related services. Whether you are an individual investor or a financial professional, or you represent a corporate or institutional investor, you can benefit from the size, stability, and experience we offer.
Founder John C. Bogle structured Vanguard for just one purpose—to build wealth for its clients…and only for its clients. The crucial difference from other fund companies: Vanguard would redirect net profits from economies of scale to fund shareholders in the form of lower costs. The arrangement was similar to that of a credit union or a traditional mutual insurance company. Sales commissions were eliminated, and operating expenses were kept low. And, soon after its founding, Vanguard opened the first index mutual fund, launching the era of low-cost index investing.
Vanguard’s innovations were revolutionary, but they were not an overnight success. Indeed, this new approach was often ignored or even scoffed at.
Steady growth
But as the 1970s turned into the 1980s, the news about Vanguard started to get around. It spread largely by word of mouth, as early clients told their families and friends about their experience—the prudently-managed funds, the conscientious service, the low costs. As assets rose, Vanguard reduced costs further and launched more funds, both indexed and actively managed. The company extended services to retirement plans, institutions, and financial advisors. Its loyal client base continued to grow, and Vanguard’s steady incoming cash flow and low redemption rate began to move it toward the ranks of the nation’s major fund firms. And as Vanguard grew, it was able to steadily lower its average fund expense ratio from 0.89% in 1975 to 0.38% by 1990 (and eventually to 0.19% by 2013).
Other investment companies started to take notice. By the 1990s, as low-cost investing and index funds demonstrated their merits, competitors began to emulate Vanguard by offering their own index funds.
And as more investors and organizations realized the importance of cost efficiency, various fund companies selectively cut costs—sometimes just temporarily—in hopes of attracting new assets.
Meanwhile, under the leadership of Mr. Bogle’s successor, Chairman and CEO John J. Brennan, the company continued to expand, first venturing outside the United States in 1996 when it established offices in Melbourne, Australia. Vanguard later opened offices in a number of other international locations, including its European headquarters in London.
Today, Vanguard is one of the world’s largest and most trusted investment management companies, with operations around the globe. Our consistent, time-tested investment philosophy has proved itself in academic research and—most importantly—in helping millions of investors reach their goals. Vanguard has become widely recognized as a leading advocate of principled, common-sense investing.
Still standing alone
In a fiercely competitive investment arena, Vanguard remains alone in placing clients’ interests in the driver’s seat. Our corporate structure is still unique among mutual fund providers, with shareholders as the ultimate owners, receiving net profits in the form of lower costs.
As it continues to expand further into international markets, Vanguard offers an ever-wider range of investment products and services for individuals, institutions, and financial advisors, all at costs that are consistently among the lowest in the industry.
Vanguard’s dedicated crew is led by an experienced, stable management team. We’ve had just three CEOs in nearly four decades, with Chairman and CEO F. William McNabb leading the firm since 2008. Because Vanguard can’t be acquired by an outside entity, our clients can be confident that we will remain the same unique company, focused solely on their interests, in the years ahead.

Mål
Delfonden strävar efter att uppnå en långsiktig avkastning genom att aktivt investera huvudsakligen i investment grade-denominerade räntebärande värdepapper i amerikanska dollar från företagsemittenter.
Riskprofil
Risk med villkorade konvertibla obligationer (”Coco”) – investeringar i denna specifika typ av obligation kan resultera i väsentliga förluster för delfonden baserat på vissa utlösande händelser. Förekomsten av dessa utlösande händelser skapar en annan typ av risk än traditionella obligationer och kan mer sannolikt resultera i en partiell eller total värdeförlust, eller alternativt kan de konverteras till aktier i det emitterande företaget som också kan ha lidit en värdeförlust.
Motpartsrisk– en part som delfonden gör transaktioner med kan misslyckas med att uppfylla sina skyldigheter, vilket kan orsaka förluster.
Kreditrisk– om en motpart eller en emittent av en finansiell tillgång som innehas inom delfonden misslyckas med att uppfylla sina betalningsskyldigheter kommer det att ha en negativ inverkan på delfonden.
Förvaringsrisk – insolvens, brott mot omsorgsplikt eller misskötsel från en förvaringsinstituts eller underförvaringsinstituts sida som ansvarar för förvaringen av delfondens tillgångar kan det leda till förlust för delfonden.
Derivatrisk – derivatinstrument är mycket känsliga för förändringar i värdet på den underliggande tillgången de baseras på. Vissa derivat kan resultera i förluster som är större än det ursprungligen investerade beloppet.
Tillväxtmarknadsrisk – tillväxtmarknader bär sannolikt högre risk på grund av lägre likviditet och eventuell brist på tillräckliga finansiella, juridiska, sociala, politiska och ekonomiska strukturer, skydd och stabilitet samt osäkra skattepositioner.
Valutakursrisk – förändringar i växelkurser kan minska eller öka den avkastning en investerare kan förvänta sig att få oberoende av tillgångarnas resultat. Om tillämpligt kan investeringstekniker som används för att försöka minska risken för valutakursförändringar (hedging) vara ineffektiva. Hedging innebär också ytterligare risker i samband med derivat.
Ränterisk – när räntorna stiger faller obligationspriserna, vilket återspeglar investerares förmåga att få en mer attraktiv ränta på sina pengar någon annanstans. Obligationspriserna är därför föremål för ränteförändringar som kan röra sig av ett antal skäl, både politiska och ekonomiska.
Hållbarhetsrisk – en miljömässig, social eller styrningsmässig händelse eller ett förhållande som kan orsaka att delfondens värde sjunker. Exempel på hållbarhetsrisker inkluderar fysiska miljörisker, risker för klimatomställningen, störningar i leveranskedjan, otillbörliga arbetsmetoder, bristande mångfald i styrelsen och korruption.
Likviditetsrisk – delfonden kanske inte alltid hittar en annan part som är villig att köpa en tillgång som delfonden vill sälja, vilket kan påverka delfondens förmåga att möta inlösenförfrågningar på begäran.
Marknadsrisk – värdet på tillgångar i delfonden dikteras vanligtvis av ett antal faktorer, inklusive förtroendenivåerna på den marknad där de handlas.
Operativ risk – väsentliga förluster för delfonden kan uppstå till följd av mänskliga fel, system- och/eller processfel, otillräckliga rutiner eller kontroller.
