The Standard Life Vanguard Global Small-Cap Index Fund is the 8th standalone index-tracking fund from Vanguard.
The fund invests fully in the Vanguard Global Small-Cap Index Fund. It seeks to generate long-term capital growth by tracking the performance of the MSCI World Small Cap Index, a broad global index comprised of small-sized companies across 23 developed market countries.
Small-cap stocks - flexible and diverse
Small-cap stocks are the world’s smallest companies by market-capitalisation, or size, often ranging from a few hundred million to billions of euros. Investing in smaller companies can offer the potential for higher investment returns than their large cap counterparts, but with greater investment risk. The Standard Life Vanguard Global Small–Cap Index Fund provides you with access to the entire small cap universe across developed markets.
This index-tracking fund provides access to over 4,000 global smaller companies across 12 sectors and 23 developed market countries, at an affordable cost.
Attractively priced annual management charge from 0.55% to 1.05%.
