About Vanguard Balanced ETF Portfolio
The Vanguard Balanced ETF Portfolio (VBAL.TO) is an all-in-one asset allocation ETF that maintains a 60% equity / 40% fixed-income split. The equity portion is globally diversified across Canadian, U.S., international developed, and emerging market stocks through underlying Vanguard ETFs. The fixed-income sleeve is composed entirely of bonds — Canadian aggregate bonds, U.S. aggregate bonds, and global aggregate bonds via underlying Vanguard bond ETFs. There are NO REITs, real assets, or alternative investments in the fixed-income portion. VBAL automatically rebalances to maintain its 60/40 target, making it a true set-and-forget solution for moderate-risk investors. MER is 0.24%.
