Your Fund’s Performance at a Glance

•	For the 12 months ended October 31, 2021, Vanguard Selected Value Fund returned 56.30%, outpacing the 48.60% return of its benchmark, the Russell Midcap Value Index.
•	During the fiscal year, the global economy continued to recover from the sharp pandemic-induced contraction of spring 2020. Countries that were more successful in containing the coronavirus, whether through vaccinations, lockdowns, or both, generally fared better economically. Swift and extensive fiscal and monetary support from policymakers was also key to the rebound. Stock returns for the period were excellent, even amid concerns late in the fiscal year about inflation and the prospect of less accommodative monetary policy.
•	The broad U.S. stock market, as measured by the Russell 3000 Index, climbed 43.90%. Value stocks outperformed growth stocks, and mid- and small-capitalization stocks outperformed large-caps.
•	Returns were positive in all 11 industry sectors. Strong selection in industrial and consumer discretionary stocks and underweight positions in utilities and consumer staples drove outperformance relative to the benchmark. Real estate and materials detracted.
•	For the decade ended October 31, 2021, the fund’s average annual return of 12.34% trailed the 13.18% return of its expense-free benchmark.

Advisors’ Report

For the 12 months ended October 31, 2021, Vanguard Selected Value Fund returned 56.30%. It outperformed its benchmark, the Russell Midcap Value Index, which returned 48.60%.

Your fund is managed by three independent advisors, a strategy that enhances its diversification by providing exposure to distinct yet complementary investment approaches. It’s not uncommon for different advisors to have different views about individual securities or the broader investment environment.

The accompanying table lists the advisors, the amount and percentage of fund assets each manages, and brief descriptions of their investment strategies.

The advisors have provided the following assessment of the investment environment during the past 12 months and the notable successes and shortfalls in their portfolios. These comments were prepared on November 16, 2021.

Building on late-2020 momentum, value stocks continued to surge in the first half of 2021 as the vaccine rollout accelerated

and fiscal and monetary stimulus set the stage for a powerful rebound in the economy. Investor preference abruptly shifted from value to growth shares in June as the Federal Reserve spoke about potential tapering and the yield curve flattened significantly. Over the 12 months, the backdrop for cyclical stocks was mostly favorable, helping the portfolio outperform its benchmark, with financials, industrials, and consumer discretionary equities leading the way.

Olin, a chemical producer of chlorine derivatives and caustic soda, was the portfolio’s top individual performer. The company continues to realize pricing improvements amid tight market conditions. U.S. oil services company Halliburton outperformed on surging crude prices after Hurricane Ida hit inventories while demand remained high amid the economic reopening. Insurer American International Group was higher after reporting tangible progress in the turnaround of its core general insurance property and casualty unit and strong performance in life and retirement insurance.

Dialysis products and services provider Fresenius Medical Care, a relatively new holding, detracted amid inflation concerns and COVID-19-related excess mortality among patients. We are nonetheless optimistic about long-term industry trends, including the increase in home dialysis, which should help Fresenius boost its already dominant product business. We expect margins to ultimately revert to more normal levels through

patient volume growth, rate renegotiations, and cost cuts.

In addition to Fresenius, we added outsourced IT services company Cognizant, software solutions provider Amdocs, and footwear manufacturer Skechers to the portfolio. We fully exited engineering and construction company AECOM, rental car provider Avis Budget Group, ad agency Interpublic Group, real estate service provider Realogy, and generic drug manufacturer Viatris.

Although the portfolio has experienced strong performance over the past year, valuation spreads remain wide. We continue to be heavily skewed toward financials, consumer discretionary, and industrials, where valuations remain compelling because of investor concerns over economic malaise and rising inflation.

The investing environment over the 12 months was shaped by a strong first half as the post-pandemic boom continued, then a softer second half as investors faced increasing supply chain disruptions, rising input-cost inflation, and labor shortages. The combined effect was a significant absolute return for U.S. equity

markets, but with uncertainty and volatility also a consistent trend.

The team took advantage of the pandemic-related market volatility, finding opportunity in some of the worst-performing sectors such as utilities and consumer staples. Turnover was elevated compared with prior periods because of consistent market fluctuations. The portfolio took on a slightly more defensive, less cyclical tilt.

Successes and shortfalls

Consistent with themes in the broader market, our largest successes were companies that initially were at the epicenter of the pandemic shock but emerged stronger as the economy reopened and the recovery took hold. American Eagle, a teen and young adult retailer, demonstrated impressive demand trends in its Aerie concept throughout the pandemic. AerCap, a leading independent aircraft lessor, was less impacted by the shutdown of air travel than investors first thought and used the downturn to opportunistically purchase GE’s aircraft leasing business. Gildan Activewear, one of the world’s largest basic apparel manufacturers, improved margins and developed new channels of demand during the downturn.

By far, the portfolio’s biggest shortfall came from stable businesses that were not positioned to benefit from the economic recovery. In particular, insurance holdings failed to keep up with the market, with RenaissanceRe, Alleghany, and Arch all lagging. However,

these businesses are poised to generate solid returns on equity and trade at increasingly attractive valuations, making them among our more promising holdings. An underweight to energy was also a headwind. Although investors are excited about the recent rise in oil prices, we remain concerned about the industry’s pervasive lack of cash flow and the increasing risks presented by efforts at decarbonization.

Outlook

Having spent the last year pricing in an economic recovery propelled by reopening and massive fiscal and monetary stimulus, markets are now grappling with the shape of the post-pandemic landscape. In particular, the question of whether current rates of inflation are transitory or reflect deeper structural issues has increasingly dominated investors’ thinking. The prospect of persistent inflation raises questions that markets have not faced in decades; absent a ready playbook, more volatility is likely.

After rebounding spectacularly in November 2020, markets continued to trend higher throughout 2021, encouraged by vaccine rollouts and the prospect of a strong post-pandemic recovery. Despite a short-lived pullback during the summer months, value stocks and our portfolio continued to rise over the 12 months ended October 31, 2021.

Top contributors included financial holdings Jefferies Financial and Fifth Third Bancorp and insurance companies Unum and American National. The stocks rose on idiosyncratic factors and a rally in the broader financial complex amid economic optimism and rising interest rates. Aircraft leasing and airline holdings AerCap and JetBlue also performed strongly as air traffic recovered from its pandemic trough. Commodity-related names such as phosphate fertilizer producer The Mosaic Company and aluminum producer Alcoa also outperformed.

Three of our holdings announced significant corporate actions during the fiscal year. The Moody family-controlled insurer American National in August announced its sale to the reinsurance arm of Brookfield Asset Management. Earlier in the year, the market responded favorably to AerCap’s plan to acquire GE’s aircraft leasing business GECAS. The recently completed transaction has made the combined entity a dominant industry leader. Pulp and paper manufacturer Domtar announced that it would be acquired by a private Canadian paper company.

Gold miners were the primary detractors. IAMGOLD experienced operational challenges, while the broader group declined as gold prices fell 6% over the 12 months amid rising nominal interest rates. Still, the outlook for gold prices continues to be positive, and gold miner valuations have become even more attractive relative to earnings and cash flow.

Despite signs of the pandemic abating, risks remain for the portfolio, including inflationary cost pressure on holdings such as airlines and homebuilders. Higher interest rates could impact home affordability, especially in light of dramatic price appreciation this year. Supply chain issues could also impede builders’ ability to deliver homes. Higher real interest

rates (if rates rise faster than inflation expectations) would be expected to hurt gold prices and miners.

Throughout the fiscal year, we sold some of the outperformers to fund new purchases across various industries, such as gold, home building, and energy. Our largest industry weightings are insurance, materials, building/real estate, metals, aircraft leasing, financials, and airlines. Currently, the portfolio trades at 107% of tangible book value and 7 times our estimate of “normalized” earnings, compared with the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index at 1623% of tangible book value and 20 times normalized earnings.

About Your Fund’s Expenses

As a shareholder of the fund, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports (like this one), among others. Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the fund.

A fund’s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.

The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:

•

Based on actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The ”Ending Account Value“ shown is derived from the fund‘s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.

To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund under the heading ”Expenses Paid During Period.“

•

Based on hypothetical 5% yearly return. This section is intended to help you compare your fund‘s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had a yearly return of 5% before expenses, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case—because the return used is not the fund’s actual return—the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess your fund’s costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.

Note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only and do not reflect transaction costs incurred by the fund for buying and selling securities. Further, the expenses do not include any purchase, redemption, or account service fees described in the fund prospectus. If such fees were applied to your account, your costs would be higher. Your fund does not carry a “sales load.”

The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.

You can find more information about the fund’s expenses, including annual expense ratios, in the Financial Statements section of this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to your fund’s current prospectus.

Six Months Ended October 31, 2021
Selected Value Fund	Beginning Account Value 4/30/2021	Ending Account Value 10/31/2021	Expenses Paid During Period
Based on Actual Fund Return	$1,000.00	$1,022.80	$1.58
Based on Hypothetical 5% Yearly Return	1,000.00	1,023.64	1.58

The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The fund’s annualized six-month expense ratio for that period is 0.31%. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period (184/365).

Performance Summary

All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results that may be achieved by the fund. (Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit our website at vanguard.com/performance.) Note, too, that both investment returns and principal value can fluctuate widely, so an investor’s shares, when sold, could be worth more or less than their original cost. The returns shown do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the sale of fund shares.

Selected Value Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard Selected Value Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. Market disruptions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic have had a global impact, and uncertainty exists as to the long-term implications. Such disruptions can adversely affect assets of the fund and thus fund performance.

A.	The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued at their fair values calculated according to procedures adopted by the board of trustees. These procedures include obtaining quotations from an independent pricing service, monitoring news to identify significant market- or security-specific events, and evaluating changes in the values of foreign market proxies (for example, ADRs, futures contracts, or exchange-traded funds), between the time the foreign markets close and the fund’s pricing time. When fair-value pricing is employed, the prices of securities used by a fund to calculate its net asset value may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities.

Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund's net asset value.

Temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services.

2. Foreign Currency: Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates obtained from an independent third party as of the fund’s pricing time on the valuation date. Realized gains (losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment securities include the effects of changes in exchange rates since the securities were purchased, combined with the effects of changes in security prices. Fluctuations in the value of other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains (losses) until the assets or liabilities are settled in cash, at which time they are recorded as realized foreign currency gains (losses).

3. Futures Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objective of maintaining full exposure to the stock market while maintaining liquidity. The fund may purchase or sell futures contracts to achieve a desired level of investment, whether to accommodate portfolio turnover or cash flows from capital share transactions. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. Any securities pledged as initial margin for open contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments.

Selected Value Fund

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The notional amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized gains (losses) on futures contracts.

During the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund’s average investments in long and short futures contracts represented 2% and 0% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of the notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

4. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. The fund’s tax returns are open to examination by the relevant tax authorities until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is generally three years after the filing of the tax return. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal and state income tax years, and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

5. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are determined on a tax basis at the fiscal year-end and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes.

6. Securities Lending: To earn additional income, the fund lends its securities to qualified institutional borrowers. Security loans are subject to termination by the fund at any time, and are required to be secured at all times by collateral in an amount at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. Daily market fluctuations could cause the value of loaned securities to be more or less than the value of the collateral received. When this occurs, the collateral is adjusted and settled before the opening of the market on the next business day. The fund further mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into securities lending transactions only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, and entering into master securities lending agreements with its counterparties. The master securities lending agreements provide that, in the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any loans with that borrower, determine the net amount owed, and sell or retain the collateral up to the net amount owed to the fund; however, such actions may be subject to legal proceedings. While collateral mitigates counterparty risk, in the event of a default, the fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Collateral investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are subject to market appreciation or depreciation. Securities lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on invested cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan. During the term of the loan, the fund is entitled to all distributions made on or in respect of the loaned securities.

Selected Value Fund

are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under either facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (or an acceptable alternate rate, if necessary), federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread, except that borrowings under the uncommitted credit facility may bear interest based upon an alternate rate agreed to by the fund and Vanguard.

In accordance with an exemptive order (the “Order”) from the SEC, the fund may participate in a joint lending and borrowing program that allows registered open-end Vanguard funds to borrow money from and lend money to each other for temporary or emergency purposes (the “Interfund Lending Program”), subject to compliance with the terms and conditions of the Order, and to the extent permitted by the fund’s investment objective and investment policies. Interfund loans and borrowings normally extend overnight, but can have a maximum duration of seven days. Loans may be called on one business day’s notice. The interest rate to be charged is governed by the conditions of the Order and internal procedures adopted by the board of trustees. The board of trustees is responsible for overseeing the Interfund Lending Program.

For the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund did not utilize the credit facilities or the Interfund Lending Program.

8. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in income, if any, are recorded at the fair value of the securities received. Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities, except for premiums on certain callable debt securities that are amortized to the earliest call date. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

The investment advisory firms Cooke & Bieler, LP, Pzena Investment Management, LLC, and Donald Smith & Co., Inc., each provide investment advisory services to a portion of the fund for a fee calculated at an annual percentage rate of average net assets managed by the advisor. The basic fee of Cooke & Bieler, LP, is subject to quarterly adjustments based on performance relative to the Russell Midcap Value Index since January 31, 2020. The basic fee of Pzena Investment Management, LLC, is subject to quarterly adjustments based on performance relative to the Russell Midcap Value Index for the preceding three years. The basic fee of Donald Smith & Co., Inc., is subject to quarterly adjustments based on performance relative to the MSCI Investable Market 2500 Index for the preceding five years.

Vanguard manages the cash reserves of the fund as described below.

For the year ended October 31, 2021, the aggregate investment advisory fee paid to all advisors represented an effective annual basic rate of 0.22% of the fund’s average net assets, before a net decrease of $3,500,000 (0.05%) based on performance.

C.	In accordance with the terms of a Funds' Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund corporate management, administrative, marketing,

Selected Value Fund

distribution and cash management services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees and are generally settled twice a month.

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At October 31, 2021, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $221,000, representing less than 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.09% of Vanguard’s capital received pursuant to the FSA. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

The fund has asked its investment advisors to direct certain security trades, subject to obtaining the best price and execution, to brokers who have agreed to rebate to the fund part of the commissions generated. Such rebates are used solely to reduce the fund’s management and administrative expenses. For the year ended October 31, 2021, these arrangements reduced the fund’s expenses by $196,000 (an annual rate of less than 0.01% of average net assets).

Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments and derivatives. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments). Any investments and derivatives valued with significant unobservable inputs are noted on the Schedule of Investments.

At October 31, 2021, 100% of the market value of the fund’s investments and derivatives was determined based on Level 1 inputs.

Permanent differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of net assets are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. As of period end, permanent differences primarily attributable to the accounting for distributions in connection with fund share redemptions were reclassified between the following accounts:

	Amount ($000)
Paid-in Capital	27,686
Total Distributable Earnings (Loss)	(27,686)

Undistributed Long-Term Gains	328,722

Gross Unrealized Appreciation	1,826,706
Gross Unrealized Depreciation	(237,028)

G.	During the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund purchased $1,816,125,000 of investment securities and sold $2,595,762,000 of investment securities, other than temporary cash investments.
H.	Capital shares issued and redeemed were:

Your Fund’s Performance at a Glance

•	For the 12 months ended October 31, 2021, Vanguard Mid-Cap Growth Fund returned 37.68%, trailing the 39.43% return of its benchmark, the Russell Midcap Growth Index.
•	During the period, the global economy continued to recover from the sharp pandemic-induced contraction of spring 2020. Countries that were more successful in containing the coronavirus, whether through vaccinations, lockdowns, or both, generally fared better economically. Swift and extensive fiscal and monetary support from policymakers was also key to the rebound. Even amid concerns late in the fiscal year about inflation and the prospect of less accommodative monetary policy, stock returns for the period were excellent.
•	The broad U.S. stock market, as measured by the Russell 3000 Index, climbed 43.90%. Value stocks outperformed growth, and mid- and -small-capitalization stocks outperformed large-caps.
•	Underperformance relative to the benchmark in part reflected negative selection in information technology and health care, two of the fund's largest sectors. Strong selection in communication services, financials, and consumer discretionary helped returns, as did an overweight to consumer staples.
•	Over the decade ended October 31, the fund’s average annualized return was 15.12%, trailing the 16.86% return of its benchmark.

Frontier Capital Management Co., LLC

Portfolio Managers:

Christopher J. Scarpa, Vice President

Ravi Davas, Vice President

Equities rose sharply over the 12 months, powered by COVID-19 vaccine development, massive stimulus, and better-than-expected earnings. Our decision to allocate more capital to high-conviction positions during last year’s sell-off contributed to the portfolio’s

outperformance as stocks cemented their stunning recovery.

We found more undervalued companies in consumer discretionary and financials that were poised for significant earnings acceleration from a normalization of business activity. Holdings in these sectors contributed most to relative performance. We reduced exposure to consumer staples companies as they faced tough comparisons following the pandemic-fueled demand.

Positive sector allocation and solid stock selection drove the portfolio’s outperformance. An underweight position in the lagging consumer staples sector and an overweight position in financials were the two most significant contributors. These were partially offset by underweight positions in energy and technology.

Stock selection was strongest in consumer discretionary and financials, offset partly by headwinds in health care. Casino operator Caesars Entertainment (+144%) reported a record profit margin as business improved dramatically on rising vaccination rates while operating costs stayed low because of changes implemented during the pandemic. The firm’s leading position in the fast-emerging sports betting market also helped the stock’s performance.

In financials, SVB Financial Group (+147%) rallied on earnings that trounced Wall Street’s expectations thanks to strong capital markets and robust loan growth that was fueled by a nearly

twofold jump in the firm’s asset base. Private equity firm KKR & Co. (+136%) outperformed on record fundraising and acquisitions that fortified the permanence of its assets under management.

On the other side of the ledger, value-based services provider Signify Health (–38%) fell on medical reimbursement cuts related to last year’s patient cohorts not being appropriately coded for their health risks. With improving vaccination and new therapies, economies are reopening on firmer footings despite recent virus spikes; companies are posting record profits in the face of increasing input costs; and consumer finances remain healthy. We are optimistic that supply bottlenecks will subside following the peak holiday season. We remain confident about the portfolio’s performance and our ability to find companies with multiple ways to win and unrecognized earnings potential that is not reflected in the stock price.

Wellington Management Company LLP

Portfolio Manager:

Timothy N. Manning,

Senior Managing Director

and Equity Portfolio Manager

Over the 12 months ended October 31, 2021, small-capitalization stocks outperformed their large- and mid-cap counterparts as measured by the Russell 2000 Index, Russell 1000 Index, and the Russell Midcap Index, respectively. Narrowing the focus to mid-caps, value led growth by more than nine percentage points over the previous year as cyclicals

benefited from excitement around the reopening of the economy.

In this environment, our portion of the fund underperformed the Russell Midcap Growth Index. Stock selection in information technology, health care, and financials detracted from relative performance. Positive selection in consumer discretionary and communication services tempered this. Sector allocation—specifically, an overweight position in communication services and underweight position in information technology—was also a material headwind.

At the security level, top detractors included Shift4 Payments, a payment processor that provides software-enabled payment services; Incyte, a global biopharmaceutical company; and MarketAxess, an electronic fixed income trading platform. Top contributors included positions in KLA, a supplier of process control and yield management solutions for the semiconductor industry; Etsy, a peer-to-peer e-commerce website that sells crafts and vintage items; and ZoomInfo Technologies, a proprietary contributory database that helps salespeople be more effective.

In terms of sectors, the portfolio is most overweight in communication services, financials, and consumer discretionary. The portfolio is most underweight in information technology, which we are traditionally overweight, but extended valuations, particular in software, have kept us cautious. We added several new holdings, including Ceridian, a human

capital management software company. We eliminated several holdings that had left our addressable market-cap universe or exceeded our valuation comfort zone on the back of strong performance.

We seek to own stocks of companies with strong secular growth characteristics and high and sustainable return on invested capital that are inexpensive on long-term earnings power. We remain very bullish on the U.S. consumer, as high savings accumulated during the economic shutdown are likely to be deployed into services with pent-up demand. We believe that if the market gets exuberant about stellar cyclical growth, we will have opportunities to initiate and add to exposures at reasonable valuations. We remain positive on the macro backdrop in the U.S., even though we recognize there may be bumps. We believe our portfolio is well positioned for a stable growth environment, and we continue to feel optimistic about the quality of the holdings.

The portfolio’s positive absolute return was driven by the performance of

holdings in the information technology, industrials, health care, consumer discretionary, and communication services sectors. Real estate holdings were the only detracting sector in terms of absolute performance.

The largest driver of positive relative performance was materials, led in part by the performance of Scotts Miracle-Gro. Scotts is the leading manufacturer and marketer of branded lawn care products in North America, including grass seed, fertilizers, soil, mulch, herbicides, pesticides, and rodent control products. We initially purchased Scotts on the company’s steady growth in their consumer business (70% of sales), and the exposure of its Hawthorne business to the emerging cannabis market, where we model sales growth of at least 40% per year through 2022.

Relative performance was hurt by some information technology holdings such as RingCentral, a provider of software-as-a-service solutions for businesses to support modern communications. We initially purchased the stock in early 2014, on the thesis that the company operates in a huge global market of approximately $50 billion that was only 10% penetrated by cloud offerings. In late 2019, RingCentral announced a commercial agreement with Avaya Holdings, a global leader in communications, that granted access to Avaya’s installed base of 100 million customers in exchange for a new RingCentral product on Avaya’s Cloud Office. Despite strong results and

guidance, highlighted by reported revenue acceleration, the stock underwhelmed during the period. We believe the headwinds can turn into a tailwind as the company continues to execute its strategy.

Given the outsized impact of the virus globally on corporate fundamentals, fiscal/monetary response, logistics, consumer behavior, and societal norms, we believe investors should expect all companies to feel direct and indirect effects as things normalize. As a result of these effects, global equity markets will likely experience higher levels of volatility and dispersion as new companies emerge, investment sentiment shifts, and legacy companies struggle to retain their previous leadership. We feel this will create an abundance of opportunities

across sectors, industries, and markets in coming quarters and years as the economy and markets transition and recover.

Within the growth universe, opportunities appear to be especially pronounced for secular companies rather than those that are more cyclical in nature. We see continued strength in the underlying fundamentals of companies that were hurt by the market’s abrupt shift early in the period from companies with better long-term sustainable growth opportunities to areas that had been more challenged by COVID-19, especially those labeled as reopening plays. We believe we can now allocate to companies with clear paths of outsized growth and much-improved valuations compared to last fall.

Vanguard Mid-Cap Growth Fund Investment Advisors


	Fund Assets Managed
Investment Advisor	%	$ Million	Investment Strategy
Frontier Capital Management Co., LLC	45	2,388	Frontier Capital employs a fundamental, bottom-up, research-intensive investment approach to select mid-cap growth stocks. It seeks companies with above-average mid-cap growth prospects and competitive advantages that will allow them to earn superior rates of return on capital over a business cycle. The approach attempts to balance growth prospects with reasonable valuation and is long-term in nature; investment time frames are typically three to five years.
Wellington Management Company LLP	33	1,734	Wellington Management uses traditional methods of stock selection—fundamental research and analysis—to identify companies that it believes have above-average growth prospects. It believes that a short-term bias in equity markets rewards near-term cyclical growth and creates opportunity for long-term growth. The team focuses on sustainable earnings power and develops bottom-up valuations based on return on investment capital forecasts, price-to-sales, and quantitative risk factors. It seeks to control risk by emphasizing larger positions in established growth stocks and smaller positions in emerging names.
RS Investments	19	1,020	RS Investments, a Victory Capital investment franchise, employs both fundamental analysis and quantitative screening in seeking to identify companies that the investment team believes will produce sustainable earnings growth over a multiyear horizon. Investment candidates typically exhibit some or all of the following criteria: strong organic revenue growth, expanding margins and profitability, innovative products or services, defensible competitive advantages, growing market share, and experienced management teams.
Cash Investments	3	148	These short-term reserves are invested by Vanguard in equity index products to simulate investment in stocks. Each advisor may also maintain a modest cash position.

About Your Fund’s Expenses

The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:

•

Six Months Ended October 31, 2021
Mid-Cap Growth Fund	Beginning Account Value 4/30/2021	Ending Account Value 10/31/2021	Expenses Paid During Period
Based on Actual Fund Return	$1,000.00	$1,075.30	$1.67
Based on Hypothetical 5% Yearly Return	1,000.00	1,023.59	1.63

The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The fund’s annualized six-month expense ratio for that period is 0.32%. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period (184/365).

Mid-Cap Growth Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard Mid-Cap Growth Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. Market disruptions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic have had a global impact, and uncertainty exists as to the long-term implications. Such disruptions can adversely affect assets of the fund and thus fund performance.

A.	The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund's net asset value. Temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services.

2. Futures Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objective of maintaining full exposure to the stock market while maintaining liquidity. The fund may purchase or sell futures contracts to achieve a desired level of investment, whether to accommodate portfolio turnover or cash flows from capital share transactions. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. Any securities pledged as initial margin for open contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments.

During the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund’s average investments in long and short futures contracts represented 3% and 0% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of the notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

Mid-Cap Growth Fund

generally three years after the filing of the tax return. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal and state income tax years, and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

4. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are determined on a tax basis at the fiscal year-end and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes.

5. Securities Lending: To earn additional income, the fund lends its securities to qualified institutional borrowers. Security loans are subject to termination by the fund at any time, and are required to be secured at all times by collateral in an amount at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. Daily market fluctuations could cause the value of loaned securities to be more or less than the value of the collateral received. When this occurs, the collateral is adjusted and settled before the opening of the market on the next business day. The fund further mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into securities lending transactions only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, and entering into master securities lending agreements with its counterparties. The master securities lending agreements provide that, in the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any loans with that borrower, determine the net amount owed, and sell or retain the collateral up to the net amount owed to the fund; however, such actions may be subject to legal proceedings. While collateral mitigates counterparty risk, in the event of a default, the fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Collateral investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are subject to market appreciation or depreciation. Securities lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on invested cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan. During the term of the loan, the fund is entitled to all distributions made on or in respect of the loaned securities.

6. Credit Facilities and Interfund Lending Program: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group ("Vanguard") participate in a $4.3 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement and an uncommitted credit facility provided by Vanguard. Both facilities may be renewed annually. Each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facilities. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes, subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. With respect to the committed credit facility, the participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn committed amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under either facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (or an acceptable alternate rate, if necessary), federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread, except that borrowings under the uncommitted credit facility may bear interest based upon an alternate rate agreed to by the fund and Vanguard.

Mid-Cap Growth Fund

borrowings normally extend overnight, but can have a maximum duration of seven days. Loans may be called on one business day’s notice. The interest rate to be charged is governed by the conditions of the Order and internal procedures adopted by the board of trustees. The board of trustees is responsible for overseeing the Interfund Lending Program.

For the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund did not utilize the credit facilities or the Interfund Lending Program.

7. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in income, if any, are recorded at the fair value of the securities received. Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities, except for premiums on certain callable debt securities that are amortized to the earliest call date. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

The investment advisory firms Victory Capital Management Inc., through its RS Investments franchise, Frontier Capital Management Co., LLC, and Wellington Management Company llp, each provide investment advisory services to a portion of the fund for a fee calculated at an annual percentage rate of average net assets managed by the advisor. The basic fee of Victory Capital Management Inc. is subject to quarterly adjustments based on performance relative to the Russell Midcap Growth Index for the preceding three years. The basic fees of Frontier Capital Management Co., LLC, and Wellington Management Company llp are subject to quarterly adjustments based on performance relative to the Russell Midcap Growth Index since January 31, 2019.

Vanguard manages the cash reserves of the fund as described below.

For the year ended October 31, 2021, the aggregate investment advisory fee paid to all advisors represented an effective annual basic rate of 0.19% of the fund’s average net assets, before a net decrease of $2,832,000 (0.06%) based on performance.

In accordance with the terms of a Funds' Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund corporate management, administrative, marketing, distribution and cash management services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees and are generally settled twice a month.

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At October 31, 2021, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $171,000, representing less than 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.07% of Vanguard’s capital received pursuant to the FSA. The fund��s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

The fund has asked its investment advisors to direct certain security trades, subject to obtaining the best price and execution, to brokers who have agreed to rebate to the fund part of the commissions generated. Such rebates are used solely to reduce the fund’s management and administrative expenses. For the year ended October 31, 2021, these arrangements reduced the fund’s expenses by $215,000 (an annual rate of less than 0.01% of average net assets).

Mid-Cap Growth Fund

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

At October 31, 2021, 100% of the market value of the fund’s investments and derivatives was determined based on Level 1 inputs.

Permanent differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of net assets are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. As of period end, permanent differences primarily attributable to the accounting for passive foreign investment companies, and distributions in connection with fund share redemptions were reclassified between the following accounts:

	Amount ($000)
Paid-in Capital	84,270
Total Distributable Earnings (Loss)	(84,270)

Temporary differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) arise when certain items of income, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. The differences are primarily related to the deferral of losses from wash sales; and the recognition of unrealized gains or losses from certain derivative contracts. As of period end, the tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) are detailed in the table as follows:

	Amount ($000)
Undistributed Ordinary Income	318,659
Undistributed Long-Term Gains	932,128
Capital Loss Carryforwards	—
Qualified Late-Year Losses	—
Net Unrealized Gains (Losses)	1,332,031

The tax character of distributions paid was as follows:

	Year Ended October 31,
	2021 Amount ($000)	2020 Amount ($000)
Ordinary Income*	7,351	10,665
Long-Term Capital Gains	297,916	435,720
Total	305,267	446,385

*	Includes short-term capital gains, if any.

As of October 31, 2021, gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation for investments and derivatives based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes were as follows:

	Amount ($000)
Tax Cost	3,949,860
Gross Unrealized Appreciation	1,486,011
Gross Unrealized Depreciation	(153,980)
Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)	1,332,031

G.	During the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund purchased $4,756,370,000 of investment securities and sold $5,482,292,000 of investment securities, other than temporary cash investments.
H.	Capital shares issued and redeemed were:

	Year Ended October 31,
	2021 Shares (000)	2020 Shares (000)
	2021 Shares (000)	2020 Shares (000)

Redeemed	(38,747)	(58,817)
Net Increase (Decrease) in Shares Outstanding	(11,090)	(14,679)

I.	Management has determined that no events or transactions occurred subsequent to October 31, 2021, that would require recognition or disclosure in these financial statements.

Your Fund’s Performance at a Glance

•	For the 12 months ended October 31, 2021, Vanguard International Explorer Fund returned 35.79%. Its benchmark, the S&P EPAC SmallCap Index, returned 34.78%.
•	The global economy continued to recover from the sharp pandemic-induced contraction in the spring of 2020. Countries that were more successful in containing the virus, whether through vaccinations, lockdowns, or both, generally fared better economically. Swift and extensive fiscal and monetary support from policymakers was also key to the rebound.
•	The fund’s four advisors invest in smaller companies––mostly from developed European and Pacific markets––that they believe have strong long-term growth prospects.
•	By region, Europe and emerging markets stocks boosted the fund’s performance relative to the benchmark. Results were hampered by stocks from North America and the Pacific region.
•	Five of the fund’s 11 industry sectors boosted relative performance; consumer discretionary and information technology stocks helped the most. Communication services and industrial stocks were the largest relative detractors.

Advisors' Report

For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2021, Vanguard International Explorer Fund returned 35.79%. Your fund is managed by four independent advisors, a strategy that enhances its diversification by providing exposure to distinct yet complementary investment approaches. It is not uncommon for different advisors to have different views about individual securities or the broader investment environment.

The advisors and the amount and percentage of fund assets each manages are presented in the accompanying table. The advisors have also prepared a discussion of the investment environment that existed during the year and of how their portfolio positioning reflected that assessment. These comments were prepared on November 15, 2021.

Global stocks achieved strong gains over the last 12 months as COVID-19 vaccination programs gathered steam, economies reopened, and monetary and fiscal policies backstopped growth. International small-capitalization stocks led large-caps, with the S&P EPAC SmallCap Index returning 34.78%, compared with 33.71% for the S&P EPAC LargeMidCap Index.

The combination of stock selection and regional allocation drove strong relative performance for our portion of the

portfolio. Positive stock selection, led by continental Europe and Japan, was only partially offset by selection in the United Kingdom. From a regional allocation perspective, our nonindex exposure to emerging markets and underweight to Japan added value, while underweighting the United Kingdom produced some negative offset.

Stock selection in continental Europe contributed most, driven by information technology (ASM International, Comet). Health care (Dermapharm, Arjo), materials (Borregaard), and consumer discretionary (Basic-Fit, Dalata Hotel) holdings also made notable contributions.

Selection in Japan was additive, as was our underweight toward the region. Consumer discretionary holdings (Musashi Seimitsu, Oisix ra daichi) benefited results the most. Stock selection in financials and an underweight to consumer staples also helped.

Our nonindex exposure to emerging markets aided results, with holdings in India (Apollo Hospitals, Oberoi Realty), the Philippines (Wilcon Depot), and Taiwan (Voltronic Power, Vanguard International Semiconductor) making notable contributions.

The United Kingdom was the strongest small-capitalization market, up more than 50%. Portfolio holdings failed to keep up, with the most significant area of weakness being our selection in industrials (QinetiQ, Bunzl) and an underweight to the sector. An underweight to financials and selection within the sector (Petershill Partners) also proved detrimental.

Table of Contents

We continue to focus on high-quality companies offering above-average and relatively visible earnings growth. Our largest overweight remains in information technology, given the secular opportunity we see from digital transformation, together with the rich vein of small-caps well-positioned to service it. Conversely, we remain underweighted in financials and real estate.

International small-cap equities, as measured by the S&P EPAC SmallCap Index, returned 34.78% for the 12 months. Global equities, as measured by the MSCI All Country World Index, rose more than 37.86%. All 11 sectors in the S&P EPAC SmallCap Index posted positive returns, led by financials, industrials, and materials.

Strong stock selection in the information technology, consumer discretionary, and financial sectors contributed most to our portion of the portfolio’s relative performance. This was modestly offset by weaker selection in real estate and materials. From a regional perspective, selection within Europe and North America contributed most to relative performance, while selection within developed Asia Pacific (excluding Japan) detracted.

Among the top relative contributors were out-of-benchmark positions in Nuvei, a Canada-based global payment solutions provider, and China Longyuan Power, China’s largest renewable power producer. Top relative detractors included out-of-benchmark positions in Lifenet Insurance, a Japan-based online-only life insurance provider, and Sundrug, a Japanese drugstore and pharmacy chain.

An eventful summer has set the table for a fourth quarter rife with uncertainty as allocators seek to navigate a market with plausible bull and bear cases. Inflation remains elevated, with pockets seemingly more sustainable than expected. Labor shortages across industries are straining supply chains, and further short-term disruption is possible. Businesses that can pass on inflation to customers or support the reestablishment of efficient production lines are likely to benefit as consumer health and market demand remain strong.

Our global industry analysts continue to collaborate and seek to balance their portfolios with potential short-term beneficiaries and long-term secular winners.

The market experienced massive shifts driven by sentiment following the depths early in the pandemic. Initially, the period saw hypergrowth significantly rewarded. Then, in the first quarter and part of the second quarter of 2021, market sentiment swung to favor deep cyclical value. Given our investment adherence to company fundamentals with a focus on profitability, cash flow, and valuation, these times were challenging for us in the short term. Amid this rapidly shifting environment, our holdings in Japan contributed to performance but were offset by those in Europe, emerging markets, and Canada. Our holdings in the consumer discretionary sector contributed most to our relative performance, while information technology holdings detracted.

In Japan, Food & Life Companies is the country’s leading conveyor-belt sushi restaurant. Strength in its same-store sales from greater takeout and delivery lifted profitability. Less positive was Elecom, a manufacturer of peripheral products for electronic devices. Shares reflected the market’s recent negative sentiment on work-from-home stocks.

We experienced mixed returns from our European holdings. Sweden-based Stillfront develops ad-supported, free-to-play digital games. New access restrictions on user data will impact the business for longer than anticipated, and we sold our holding.

More positive was U.K. wealth manager St. James’s Place. We purchased the name in early 2020 amid the COVID-related dislocation. Since then, the company has reported record inflows with

pent-up demand from accumulated consumer savings.

Our top contributor in emerging markets was Taiwan’s leading e-commerce player, momo.com. The company continued to gain share on COVID-driven demand. The region’s top detractor was Turkish e-commerce peer, D-Market. Its shares were hurt by elevated short-term expenses and increased competition. In other regions, Canada-based Real Matters operates a proprietary online network of home appraisal management solutions. We were disappointed when management discussed reallocating resources to focus on larger clients at the expense of smaller clients, so we exited the holding.

Currently, our companies are delivering on a fundamental level with positive cash flows and earnings, but not along the presently preferred market themes. Many of our companies emerged from the pandemic having learned to effectively execute under this new normal and are well-capitalized to pursue further opportunities. We remain confident about our portion of the portfolio’s prospects, especially its ability to generate better earnings growth than the market.

We focus our investment research efforts on unearthing small businesses run by dynamic entrepreneurs, which target large end markets by way of their exposure to long-term structural trends. They might have the potential to rapidly grow their earnings thanks to innovation or have a deep competitive moat that allows them to compound their earnings over the long term. However, once they are found, we act as patient long-term shareholders, ignoring market noise and giving investments the time to realize their significant potential.

Our way of dealing with short-term market fluctuations is to concentrate on providing a broadly diversified portfolio of businesses. The idiosyncrasy of these holdings means that some of them will be enjoying cyclical tailwinds while others are finding it tougher going, but all should be heading in a broadly upward direction over the long-term periods we target.

This year, markets in general have been looking for “re-opening plays,” with a number of “old economy” type stocks (shipping, resources, etc.) performing strongly as a result. Simultaneously, technology-led stocks that performed exceptionally well during the pandemic in 2020 have fallen out of favor despite continued strong operational performance. Examples include Japanese online platforms Bengo4.Com (connecting lawyers with clients and digital document authentication), Demae-Can (food delivery), and Locondo (shoes).

Our holdings in automation, engineering, and semiconductors have performed well, including ASPEED Technology (a Taiwanese supplier of baseboard

management controllers), Sensirion (a Swiss manufacturer of environment and flow sensors), and HMS Networks (a Swedish industrial communication company).

We strongly believe that by focusing on seeking out and investing in the highest-quality and fastest-growing smaller companies internationally, we give ourselves the best chance of generating outsized returns over the long term. Our approach is unearthing an increased number of opportunities in the current market environment, where attention seems focused on economies unlocking and inflation, and not fundamental change.

About Your Fund’s Expenses

A fund‘s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.

The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:

•

Based on actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The ”Ending Account Value“ shown is derived from the fund’s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.

Based on Hypothetical 5% Yearly Return	1,000.00	1,023.19	2.04

The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The fund's annualized six-month expense ratio for that period is 0.40%. The dollar amounts shown as ”Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period (184/365).

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard International Explorer Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund invests in securities of foreign issuers, which may subject it to investment risks not normally associated with investing in securities of U.S. corporations. Market disruptions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic have had a global impact, and uncertainty exists as to the long-term implications. Such disruptions can adversely affect assets of the fund and thus fund performance.

A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund's net asset value.

Table of Contents

International Explorer Fund

clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. Any securities pledged as initial margin for open contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments.

4. Repurchase Agreements: The fund enters into repurchase agreements with institutional counterparties. Securities pledged as collateral to the fund under repurchase agreements are held by a custodian bank until the agreements mature, and in the absence of a default, such collateral cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. Each agreement requires that the market value of the collateral be sufficient to cover payments of interest and principal. The fund further mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into repurchase agreements only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, and entering into master repurchase agreements with its counterparties. The master repurchase agreements provide that, in the event of a counterparty's default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any repurchase agreements with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed, and sell or retain the collateral up to the net amount owed to the fund. Such action may be subject to legal proceedings, which may delay or limit the disposition of collateral.

5. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. The fund’s tax returns are open to examination by the relevant tax authorities until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is generally three years after the filing of the tax return. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal and state income tax years, and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

6. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are determined on a tax basis at the fiscal year-end and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes.

Table of Contents

International Explorer Fund

While collateral mitigates counterparty risk, in the event of a default, the fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Collateral investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are subject to market appreciation or depreciation. Securities lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on invested cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan. During the term of the loan, the fund is entitled to all distributions made on or in respect of the loaned securities.

8. Credit Facilities and Interfund Lending Program: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group ("Vanguard") participate in a $4.3 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement and an uncommitted credit facility provided by Vanguard. Both facilities may be renewed annually. Each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facilities. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes, subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. With respect to the committed credit facility, the participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn committed amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under either facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (or an acceptable alternate rate, if necessary), federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread, except that borrowings under the uncommitted credit facility may bear interest based upon an alternative rate agreed to by the fund and Vanguard.

For the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund did not utilize the credit facilities or the Interfund Lending Program.

9. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in income, if any, are recorded at the fair value of the securities received. Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities, except for premiums on certain callable debt securities that are amortized to the earliest call date. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

Taxes on foreign dividends and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the fund’s understanding of the applicable countries’ tax rules and rates. Deferred foreign capital gains tax, if any, is accrued daily based upon applicable net unrealized gains. The fund has filed tax reclaims for

Table of Contents

International Explorer Fund

previously withheld taxes on dividends earned in certain European Union countries. These filings are subject to various administrative and judicial proceedings within these countries. Such tax reclaims received during the year, if any, are included in dividend income. No other amounts for additional tax reclaims are reflected in the financial statements due to the uncertainty as to the ultimate resolution of proceedings, the likelihood of receipt of these reclaims, and the potential timing of payment.

B. The investment advisory firms Schroder Investment Management North America Inc., Wellington Management Company llp, TimesSquare Capital Management, LLC, and Baillie Gifford Overseas Ltd. each provide investment advisory services to a portion of the fund for a fee calculated at an annual percentage rate of average net assets managed by the advisor. The basic fees of Schroder Investment Management North America Inc., Wellington Management Company llp, and TimesSquare Capital Management, LLC, are subject to quarterly adjustments based on performance relative to the S&P EPAC SmallCap Index for the preceding three years. In accordance with the advisory contract entered into with Baillie Gifford Overseas Ltd., beginning November 1, 2021, the investment advisory fees will be subject to quarterly adjustments based on performance relative to the MSCI All Country World Index ex US Small-Cap Index since October 31,2020.

Vanguard manages the cash reserves of the fund as described below.

For the year ended October 31, 2021, the aggregate investment advisory fee represented an effective annual basic rate of 0.27% of the fund’s average net assets, before a decrease of $1,331,000 (0.05%) based on performance.

C. In accordance with the terms of a Funds’ Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund corporate management, administrative, marketing, distribution, and cash management services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees and are generally settled twice a month.

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At October 31, 2021, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $94,000, representing less than 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.04% of Vanguard’s capital received pursuant to the FSA. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

D. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments and derivatives. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

E. Permanent differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of net assets are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. As of period end, permanent differences primarily attributable to the accounting for foreign currency transactions, passive foreign investment companies, and distributions in connection with fund share redemptions were reclassified between the following accounts:

	Amount ($000)
Paid-in Capital	1,488
Total Distributable Earnings (Loss)	(1,488)

Temporary differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) arise when certain items of income, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. The differences are primarily related to the deferral of losses from wash sales; the recognition of unrealized gains or losses from certain derivative contracts; and the recognition of unrealized gains from passive foreign investment companies. As of period end, the tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) are detailed in the table as follows:

	Amount ($000)
Undistributed Ordinary Income	83,669
Undistributed Long-Term Gains	33,045

The fund purchased securities from and sold securities to other funds or accounts managed by its investment advisors or their affiliates, in accordance with procedures adopted by the board of trustees in compliance with Rule 17a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940.

(Schroder Inc.), as well as the sub-advisory arrangement with Schroder Investment Management North America Limited (Schroder Ltd.); TimesSquare Capital Management, LLC (TimesSquare); and Wellington Management Company llp (Wellington Management). The board determined that renewing each of the fund’s advisory arrangements was in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders.

The board based its decisions upon an evaluation of each advisor’s investment staff, portfolio management process, and performance. This evaluation included information provided to the board by Vanguard’s Portfolio Review Department, which is responsible for fund and advisor oversight and product management. The Portfolio Review Department met regularly with the advisors and made monthly presentations to the board during the fiscal year that directed the board’s focus to relevant information and topics.

The board, or an investment committee made up of board members, also received information throughout the year during advisor presentations. For each advisor presentation, the board was provided with letters and reports that included information about, among other things, the advisory firm and the advisor’s assessment of the investment environment, portfolio performance, and portfolio characteristics.

In addition, the board received periodic reports throughout the year, which included information about the fund’s performance relative to its peers and benchmark, as applicable, and updates, as needed, on the Portfolio Review Department’s ongoing assessment of the advisors.

Prior to their meeting, the trustees were provided with a memo and materials that summarized the information they received over the course of the year. They also considered the factors discussed below, among others. However, no single factor determined whether the board approved the arrangements. Rather, it was the totality of the circumstances that drove the board’s decisions.

Nature, extent, and quality of services

The board reviewed the quality of the fund’s investment management services provided by Baillie Gifford, Schroder Inc., Schroder Ltd., TimesSquare, and Wellington Management over both the short and long term, and took into account the organizational depth and stability of each advisor. The board considered the following:

Baillie Gifford. Baillie Gifford—a unit of Baillie Gifford & Co., founded in 1908—is among the largest independently owned investment management firms in the United Kingdom. Baillie Gifford invests with a long-term perspective and has a strong preference for high-quality growth companies with sustainable competitive advantages. The investment process is driven by rigorous, fundamental, bottom-up analysis undertaken by the dedicated International Smaller Companies team. The investment team seeks significant upside in each stock it invests in and considers sustainable earnings growth and free cash flow growth to be the most important determinants of a company’s prospects. Baillie Gifford has managed a portion of the fund since 2020.

Schroder. Schroders plc, the parent company of Schroder Inc. and Schroder Ltd. (collectively, Schroder), founded in 1804, specializes in global equity and fixed income management. Schroder

Table of Contents

employs a bottom-up, fundamental research-driven process to select stocks, with a focus on identifying companies with sustainable competitive advantages, attractive earnings growth, and compelling valuations. Stock selection responsibilities are divided among five regional leaders who make up Schroder’s International Small-Cap Committee, which is led by the portfolio manager. The regional team leverages Schroder’s extensive network of local analysts across the globe, as it believes that country factors are more important for smaller companies relative to larger companies. Schroder Inc. has advised the fund since its inception in 1996, and its affiliate Schroder Ltd. has managed a portion of the fund since 2003.

TimesSquare. TimesSquare, founded in 2000 as a small- and mid-cap growth specialist, is a strategic partner of Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. TimesSquare’s small-cap equity team is led by the portfolio manager and is made up of five experienced members. All portfolio decisions are made collectively, allowing for accountability. Value chain analysis and interactions with key stakeholders are at the core of the team’s research and idea-generation process, resulting in a portfolio made up of industry-leading companies with sustainable business models and quality management teams. TimesSquare has managed a portion of the fund since 2017.

Wellington Management. Wellington Management, founded in 1928, is among the nation’s oldest and most respected institutional investment managers. Wellington Management’s international small-cap research equity team employs a bottom-up approach that seeks to add value through in-depth fundamental research and understanding of its industries. It believes that the experience of covering the same companies over a period of many years provides the Global Industry Analysts with in-depth knowledge of their coverage, which in turn leads to better and more timely decisions and increases their potential to produce superior results. Wellington Management has managed a portion of the fund since 2010.

The board concluded that each advisor’s experience, stability, depth, and performance, among other factors, warranted continuation and approval of the advisory arrangements.

Investment performance

The board considered the short-term, long-term, and since-inception performance, as applicable, of Baillie Gifford’s, Schroder’s, TimesSquare’s, and Wellington Management’s subportfolios, including any periods of outperformance or underperformance compared with a relevant benchmark index and peer group. The board concluded that the performance was such that the advisory arrangements should continue.

Cost

The board concluded that the fund’s expense ratio was well below the average expense ratio charged by funds in its peer group and that Baillie Gifford’s, Schroder’s, TimesSquare’s, or Wellington Management’s advisory fee rates were also well below the peer-group average.

The board did not consider the profitability of Baillie Gifford, Schroder, TimesSquare, or Wellington Management in determining whether to approve the advisory fees, because the firms are independent of Vanguard and the advisory fees are the result of arm’s-length negotiations.

The benefit of economies of scale

The board concluded that the fund’s shareholders benefit from economies of scale because of breakpoints in the advisory fee schedules for Baillie Gifford, Schroder, TimesSquare, and Wellington

Table of Contents

Management. The breakpoints reduce the effective rate of the fees as the fund’s assets managed by each advisor increase.

The board will consider whether to renew the advisory arrangements again after a one-year period.

Your Fund’s Performance at a Glance

•	For the 12 months ended October 31, 2021, Vanguard High Dividend Yield Index Fund returned 40.50% for Admiral Shares and 40.55% for ETF shares (ETF returns are based on net asset value). The fund’s benchmark, the FTSE High Dividend Yield Index, returned 40.61%.
•	During the period, the global economy continued to recover from the sharp pandemic-induced contraction in the spring of 2020. Countries that were more successful in containing the virus, whether through vaccinations, lockdowns, or both, generally fared better economically. Swift and extensive fiscal and monetary support from policymakers was also key to the rebound. Even amid concerns toward the end of the fiscal year about inflation and the prospect of less accommodative monetary policy, stock returns were excellent.
•	Financial and energy stocks contributed most to the fund’s performance.
•	For the past decade, the fund’s ETF Shares posted an average annual return of 13.00%, slightly behind the 13.06% average of their benchmark.

High Dividend Yield Index Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard High Dividend Yield Index Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers two classes of shares: ETF Shares and Admiral Shares. Each of the share classes has different eligibility and minimum purchase requirements, and is designed for different types of investors. ETF Shares are listed for trading on NYSE Arca; they can be purchased and sold through a broker. Prior to November 7, 2019, the fund offered Investor Shares. Effective at the close of business on November 7, 2019, the remaining Investor Shares were converted to Admiral Shares.

Market disruptions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic have had a global impact, and uncertainty exists as to the long-term implications. Such disruptions can adversely affect assets of the fund and thus fund performance.

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund's pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund's net asset value. Temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services.

2. Futures Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objectives of maintaining full exposure to the stock market, maintaining liquidity, and minimizing transaction costs. The fund may purchase futures contracts to immediately invest incoming cash in the market, or sell futures in response to cash outflows, thereby simulating a fully invested position in the underlying index while maintaining a cash balance for liquidity. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. Any securities pledged as initial margin for open contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments.

High Dividend Yield Index Fund

During the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund’s average investments in long and short futures contracts represented less than 1% and 0% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of the notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

3. Swap Contracts: The fund has entered into equity swap contracts to earn the total return on selected reference stocks in the fund’s target index. Under the terms of the swaps, the fund receives the total return on the referenced stock (i.e., receiving the increase or paying the decrease in value of the selected reference stock and receiving the equivalent of any dividends in respect of the selected referenced stock) over a specified period of time, applied to a notional amount that represents the value of a designated number of shares of the selected reference stock at the beginning of the equity swap contract. The fund also pays a floating rate that is based on short-term interest rates, applied to the notional amount. At the same time, the fund generally invests an amount approximating the notional amount of the swap in high-quality temporary cash investments.

A risk associated with all types of swaps is the possibility that a counterparty may default on its obligation to pay net amounts due to the fund. The fund’s maximum amount subject to counterparty risk is the unrealized appreciation on the swap contract. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into swaps only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, entering into master netting arrangements with its counterparties, and requiring its counterparties to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. In the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any swap contracts with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements. The swap contracts contain provisions whereby a counterparty may terminate open contracts if the fund's net assets decline below a certain level, triggering a payment by the fund if the fund is in a net liability position at the time of the termination. The payment amount would be reduced by any collateral the fund has pledged. Any securities pledged as collateral for open contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments. The value of collateral received or pledged is compared daily to the value of the swap contracts exposure with each counterparty, and any difference, if in excess of a specified minimum transfer amount, is adjusted and settled within two business days.

The notional amounts of swap contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Swaps are valued daily based on market quotations received from independent pricing services or recognized dealers and the change in value is recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until periodic payments are made or the termination of the swap, at which time realized gain (loss) is recorded.

During the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund’s average amounts of investments in total return swaps represented less than 1% of net assets, based on the average of notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

7. Credit Facilities and Interfund Lending Program: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group ("Vanguard") participate in a $4.3 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement and an uncommitted credit facility provided by Vanguard. Both facilities may be renewed annually. Each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facilities. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes, subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. With respect to the committed credit facility, the participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn committed amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under either facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (or an acceptable alternate rate, if necessary), federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread, except that borrowings under the uncommitted credit facility may bear interest based upon an alternative rate agreed to by the fund and Vanguard.

Table of Contents

High Dividend Yield Index Fund

For the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund did not utilize the credit facilities or the Interfund Lending Program.

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

B. In accordance with the terms of a Funds’ Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees and are generally settled twice a month.

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At October 31, 2021, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $1,649,000, representing less than 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.66% of Vanguard’s capital received pursuant to the FSA. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments and derivatives. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund's investments and derivatives as of October 31, 2021, based on the inputs used to value them:

D. Permanent differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of net assets are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. As of period end, permanent differences primarily attributable to the accounting for in-kind redemptions and swap agreements were reclassified between the following accounts:

	Amount ($000)
Paid-in Capital	1,396,506
Total Distributable Earnings (Loss)	(1,396,506)

Temporary differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) arise when certain items of income, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. The differences are primarily related to the deferral of losses from wash sales; the recognition of unrealized gains or losses from certain derivative contracts; and the classification of securities for tax purposes. As of period end, the tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) are detailed in the table as follows:

	Amount ($000)
Undistributed Ordinary Income	176,793
Undistributed Long-Term Gains	—
Capital Loss Carryforwards	(2,366,038)
Qualified Late-Year Losses	—
Net Unrealized Gains (Losses)	11,903,939

E. During the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund purchased $11,626,412,000 of investment securities and sold $7,101,274,000 of investment securities, other than temporary cash investments. Purchases and sales include $6,908,112,000 and $3,669,913,000, respectively, in connection with in-kind purchases and redemptions of the fund’s capital shares.

The fund purchased securities from and sold securities to other Vanguard funds or accounts managed by Vanguard or its affiliates, in accordance with procedures adopted by the board of trustees in compliance with Rule 17a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. For the year ended October 31, 2021, such purchases were $1,162,880,000 and sales were $483,610,000, resulting in net realized loss of $31,148,000; these amounts, other than temporary cash investments, are included in the purchases and sales of investment securities noted above.

In November 2018, the fund announced changes to the availability and minimum investment criteria of the Investor and Admiral share classes. As a result, all of the outstanding Investor Shares automatically converted to Admiral Shares beginning in April 2019. Investor Shares—Redeemed and Admiral Shares—Issued include 4,000 and 5,000 shares, respectively, in the amount of $91,000 from the conversion during the year ended October 31, 2020.

G. Management has determined that no events or transactions occurred subsequent to October 31, 2021, that would require recognition or disclosure in these financial statements.

Your Fund’s Performance at a Glance

•	For the 12 months ended October 31, 2021, Vanguard Emerging Markets Government Bond Index Fund returned 3.26% for Admiral Shares, 3.31% for Institutional Shares, and 4.06% for ETF Shares. Its benchmark index returned 4.20%.
•	The global economy continued to recover from the sharp pandemic-induced contraction in the spring of 2020. Countries that were more successful in containing COVID-19—whether through vaccinations, lockdowns, or both—generally fared better economically. Swift and extensive fiscal and monetary support from policymakers was also key to the rebound. Bond yields moved higher across much of the developed world during the fiscal year amid concerns about inflation and the prospect that some developed-market central banks might scale back their bond-buying programs or raise interest rates.
•	Amid these conditions, U.S. dollar-denominated emerging-market debt performance was mostly positive over the period. Bonds of some of the largest issuers, including Mexico and Turkey, posted double-digit 12-month gains, while those of others such as Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, and the United Arab Emirates lagged.
•	At period-end, the fund’s 30-day SEC yield net of expenses—a proxy for its income-generating potential over 12 months—ranged from 4.10% for Admiral Shares to 4.12% for Institutional Shares.

The fund’s annualized six-month expense ratios for that period are 0.17% for ETF Shares, 0.16% for Admiral Shares, and 0.15% for Institutional Shares. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period (184/365).

Emerging Markets Government Bond Index Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard Emerging Markets Government Bond Index Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers three classes of shares: ETF Shares, Admiral Shares, and Institutional Shares. Each of the share classes has different eligibility and minimum purchase requirements, and is designed for different types of investors. ETF Shares are listed for trading on Nasdaq; they can be purchased and sold through a broker.

The fund invests in securities of foreign issuers, which may subject it to investment risks not normally associated with investing in securities of U.S. corporations. Market disruptions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic have had a global impact, and uncertainty exists as to the long-term implications. Such disruptions can adversely affect assets of the fund and thus fund performance.

A.	The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Bonds and temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund's net asset value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value.

2. Futures Contracts: The fund uses futures contracts to invest in fixed income asset classes with greater efficiency and lower cost than is possible through direct investment, to add value when these instruments are attractively priced, or to adjust sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of bonds held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. Any securities pledged as initial margin for open contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments.

During the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund’s average investments in long and short futures contracts each represented less than 1% of net assets, based on the average of the notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

Emerging Markets Government Bond Index Fund

3. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. The fund’s tax returns are open to examination by the relevant tax authorities until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is generally three years after the filing of the tax return. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal and state income tax years, and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

5. Credit Facilities and Interfund Lending Program: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group ("Vanguard") participate in a $4.3 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement and an uncommitted credit facility provided by Vanguard. Both facilities may be renewed annually. Each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facilities. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes, subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. With respect to the committed credit facility, the participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn committed amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under either facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (or an acceptable alternate rate, if necessary), federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread, except that borrowings under the uncommitted credit facility may bear interest based upon an alternate rate agreed to by the fund and Vanguard.

For the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund did not utilize the credit facilities or the Interfund Lending Program.

6. Other: Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities, except for premiums on certain callable debt securities that are amortized to the earliest call date. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold. Fees assessed on capital share transactions are credited to paid-in capital.

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in

Emerging Markets Government Bond Index Fund

Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

In accordance with the terms of a Funds' Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees and are generally settled twice a month.

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At October 31, 2021, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $112,000, representing less than 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.04% of Vanguard’s capital received pursuant to the FSA. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

Permanent differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of net assets are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. As of period end, permanent differences primarily attributable to the accounting for in-kind redemptions were reclassified between the following accounts:

	Amount ($000)
Paid-in Capital	31,272
Total Distributable Earnings (Loss)	(31,272)

Temporary differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) arise when certain items of income, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. The differences are primarily related to the deferral of losses from wash sales; the recognition of unrealized gains or losses from certain derivative contracts; the inclusion of payables for distributions; and the treatment of amortization adjustments from certain fixed income securities. As of period end, the tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) are detailed in the table as follows:

	Amount ($000)
Undistributed Ordinary Income	10,617
Undistributed Long-Term Gains	—
Capital Loss Carryforwards	(76,612)
Qualified Late-Year Losses	—
Net Unrealized Gains (Losses)	(50,309)

The tax character of distributions paid was as follows:

	2021 Amount ($000)	2020 Amount ($000)
Ordinary Income*	118,477	90,553
Long-Term Capital Gains	—	—
Total	118,477	90,553

Emerging Markets Government Bond Index Fund

During the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund purchased $2,157,692,000 of investment securities and sold $962,951,000 of investment securities, other than U.S. government securities and temporary cash investments. Purchases and sales of U.S. government securities were $56,369,000 and $56,358,000, respectively. Purchases and sales include $1,683,452,000 and $535,154,000, respectively, in connection with in-kind purchases and redemptions of the fund's capital shares.

The fund purchased securities from and sold securities to other Vanguard funds or accounts managed by Vanguard or its affiliates, in accordance with procedures adopted by the board of trustees in compliance with Rule 17a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. For the year ended October 31, 2021, such purchases were $502,000 and sales were $34,330,000, resulting in net realized gain of $651,000; these amounts, other than temporary cash investments, are included in the purchases and sales of investment securities noted above.

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of October 31, 2021, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period ended October 31, 2021 and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended October 31, 2021 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2021 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures.

Your Fund’s Performance at a Glance

•	Vanguard Global Minimum Volatility Fund returned 18.51% for Investor Shares and 18.60% for Admiral Shares for the 12 months ended October 31, 2021, underperforming its benchmark, which returned 38.27%.
•	The global economy continued to recover from the sharp pandemic-induced contraction in the spring of 2020. Swift and extensive fiscal and monetary support from policymakers was a key to the rebound. Even amid concerns toward the end of the fiscal year about inflation and the prospect of less accommodative monetary policy, stock returns for the period were excellent.
•	Our positions in low-volatility stocks trailed significantly during the fiscal year. Although all 11 of the fund’s industry sectors detracted on a relative basis, real estate, utilities, and materials held up the best. By region, our positions in North America detracted the most.
•	The fund’s average volatility for the 12 months was nearly a third less than that of its benchmark.
•	The fund regularly uses derivatives to hedge portfolio risks. Its holdings in forward foreign currencies and futures detracted from performance.

Advisor’s Report

For the 12 months ended October 31, 2021, Vanguard Global Minimum Volatility Fund returned 18.51% for Investor Shares and 18.60% for Admiral Shares, with an annualized weekly volatility of 9.41%. Its benchmark, the FTSE Global All Cap Index (USD Hedged), returned 38.27%, with annualized weekly volatility of 13.90%. (To determine annualized weekly volatility, we calculate the standard deviation of weekly returns and multiply it by the square root of 52, the number of weeks in a year.)

Investment objective

Our objective is to create a portfolio that has broad equity exposure with less volatility than that of the global equity market. Our positions in low-volatility stocks delivered significant downside protection during the period, with the fund’s weekly volatility averaging about 23% less than that of its benchmark.

It is important to mention, as we have in the past, that we do not target a specific volatility level. Rather, we seek to provide an equity fund that has lower absolute risk than that of the broad global market. Thus, when the broad global equity market is experiencing periods of low volatility, you should expect this fund’s volatility to be much closer to that of its benchmark.

We recognize that equity-like returns are also an important outcome of an investment in this fund, but achieving a total return higher than the benchmark’s is not our objective. Although our research leads us to expect that, on average, a minimum volatility fund may hold up better than the overall global market in

sharp downturns (while still experiencing losses), the fund should be expected to trail in strong bull markets. With that in mind, because the fund is expected to have a lower level of risk than the global equity market, you should not expect it to outperform the market over the long run.

We think a reasonable comparative performance measure for the fund over the long term is its risk-adjusted return. This can be calculated by dividing the portfolio’s total return for the period by the annualized standard deviation of monthly returns. Since inception, the risk-adjusted annual return for the fund was 0.89%, much more closely in line with the 0.93% risk-adjusted return of the benchmark.

Investment strategy

In building our portfolio, we use quantitative models that evaluate a variety of factors that drive a stock’s volatility. These fundamental drivers include risk factors such as growth, value, dividend yield, size, volatility, and liquidity. In addition, our process includes estimates of each stock’s correlation—or how its factors move in relation to one another. This approach allows us to make appropriate risk/diversification trade-offs without relying solely on volatility estimates.

We also consider the effect of currency exposure. We recognize that owning companies in foreign markets involves the risk of movements in exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar. Because of this, an optimization process that focuses solely on volatilities tied to an investor’s

home currency will tend to overweight exposures to that currency.

We aim to avoid currency-specific exposures by focusing on equity volatilities and correlations measured in local currency terms. We use currency forward contracts to hedge the resulting exposure for U.S. investors. We believe that this process can further reduce the overall volatility of the portfolio in the long run.

Finally, we apply constraints to reduce stock, sector, and country concentration risk. We find that these constraints, which allow for broader diversification and liquidity, reduce unnecessarily high risk exposures without significantly affecting our ability to lower overall volatility. Drawing from about 7,700 stocks in the FTSE index, we construct a portfolio of about 300 to 350 stocks.

The benefits of our strategy become even clearer when you remove some of the noise caused by short-term reversals in daily and weekly returns, which can increase volatility levels, and focus on monthly returns. Since inception, the fund has delivered a 21% volatility discount relative to its benchmark.

The world economy’s recovery from the 2020 pandemic-induced contraction was quicker than many had expected. Countries that have been better at containing the virus have generally been more successful economically. Swift and extensive fiscal and monetary support

from policymakers was also key to the rebound.

Even amid concerns toward the end of the fiscal year about inflation and the prospect of less accommodative monetary policy, stock returns were excellent. The FTSE All-World Index returned 37.59% for the 12 months.

Bond yields moved higher across much of the developed world amid concerns about inflation and the prospect that some developed-market central banks might scale back their bond-buying programs or raise interest rates.

The environment for commodities was one of the most attractive in years because of limited supply and increased demand worldwide. West Texas Intermediate Crude and natural gas, both of which were hit hard by a sharp drop in demand in 2020, recovered strongly over the 12 months. Safe-haven commodities, such as gold, lagged.

The fund’s successes and shortfalls

Our portfolio is designed to deliver equity-like returns with lower market volatility. Although the fund delivered significant downside protection during the 12 months, its performance trailed that of its benchmark. As markets recovered, investors took on more risk and low-volatility stocks fell out of favor relative to their higher-volatility counterparts.

At the sector level, our selection in health care, consumer discretionary, and consumer staples detracted the most.

Although all 11 of the fund’s industry sectors detracted on a relative basis, our positions in real estate, utilities, and materials held up the best.

Regionally, our positions in North America, which account for more than 50% of the fund’s holdings, hurt relative returns the most. Positions in the Pacific and Europe also detracted significantly.

We remain convinced in the fund's ability to deliver a strong risk/return profile over the long term. Despite the challenging environment since the pandemic, the fund has delivered a significant volatility discount to the market.

We expect our approach to portfolio construction to pay off in reduced volatility over the long run, and we will continue to focus patiently on its long-term risk-adjusted returns.

About Your Fund’s Expenses

The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:

•

Six Months Ended October 31, 2021
	Beginning Account Value 4/30/2021	Ending Account Value 10/31/2021	Expenses Paid During Period
Based on Actual Fund Return
Global Minimum Volatility Fund
Investor Shares	$1,000.00	$1,035.60	$1.08
Admiral™ Shares	1,000.00	1,036.30	0.72
Based on Hypothetical 5% Yearly Return
Global Minimum Volatility Fund
Investor Shares	$1,000.00	$1,024.15	$1.07
Admiral Shares	1,000.00	1,024.50	0.71

The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The fund’s annualized six-month expense ratios for that period are 0.21% for Investor Shares and 0.14% for Admiral Shares. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period (184/365).

Global Minimum Volatility Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard Global Minimum Volatility Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers two classes of shares: Investor Shares and Admiral Shares. Each of the share classes has different eligibility and minimum purchase requirements, and is designed for different types of investors.

The fund invests in securities of foreign issuers, which may subject it to investment risks not normally associated with investing in securities of U.S. corporations. To minimize the currency risk and volatility associated with investment in securities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, the fund attempts to hedge its currency exposure. Market disruptions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic have had a global impact, and uncertainty exists as to the long-term implications. Such disruptions can adversely affect assets of the fund and thus fund performance.

A.	The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund's net asset value.

Global Minimum Volatility Fund

clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. Any securities pledged as initial margin for open contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments.

During the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund’s average investments in long and short futures contracts represented 1% and 0% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of the notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

4. Forward Currency Contracts: The fund enters into forward currency contracts to protect the value of securities and related receivables and payables against changes in future foreign exchange rates. The fund’s risks in using these contracts include movement in the values of the foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar and the ability of the counterparties to fulfill their obligations under the contracts. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into forward currency contracts only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, entering into master netting arrangements with its counterparties, and requiring its counterparties to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. The master netting arrangements provide that, in the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate the forward currency contracts, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements. The forward currency contracts contain provisions whereby a counterparty may terminate open contracts if the fund’s net assets decline below a certain level, triggering a payment by the fund if the fund is in a net liability position at the time of the termination. The payment amount would be reduced by any collateral the fund has pledged. Any securities pledged as collateral for open contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments. The value of collateral received or pledged is compared daily to the value of the forward currency contracts exposure with each counterparty, and any difference, if in excess of a specified minimum transfer amount, is adjusted and settled within two business days.

Forward currency contracts are valued at their quoted daily prices obtained from an independent third party, adjusted for currency risk based on the expiration date of each contract. The notional amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized gains (losses) on forward currency contracts.

During the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund’s average investment in forward currency contracts represented 48% of net assets, based on the average of the notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

Global Minimum Volatility Fund

7. Securities Lending: To earn additional income, the fund lends its securities to qualified institutional borrowers. Security loans are subject to termination by the fund at any time, and are required to be secured at all times by collateral in an amount at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. Daily market fluctuations could cause the value of loaned securities to be more or less than the value of the collateral received. When this occurs, the collateral is adjusted and settled before the opening of the market on the next business day. The fund further mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into securities lending transactions only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, and entering into master securities lending agreements with its counterparties. The master securities lending agreements provide that, in the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any loans with that borrower, determine the net amount owed, and sell or retain the collateral up to the net amount owed to the fund; however, such actions may be subject to legal proceedings. While collateral mitigates counterparty risk, in the event of a default, the fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Collateral investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are subject to market appreciation or depreciation. Securities lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on invested cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan. During the term of the loan, the fund is entitled to all distributions made on or in respect of the loaned securities.

In accordance with an exemptive order (the “Order”) from the SEC, the fund may participate in a joint lending and borrowing program that allows registered open-end Vanguard funds to borrow

Global Minimum Volatility Fund

money from and lend money to each other for temporary or emergency purposes (the “Interfund Lending Program”), subject to compliance with the terms and conditions of the Order, and to the extent permitted by the fund’s investment objective and investment policies. Interfund loans and borrowings normally extend overnight, but can have a maximum duration of seven days. Loans may be called on one business day’s notice. The interest rate to be charged is governed by the conditions of the Order and internal procedures adopted by the board of trustees. The board of trustees is responsible for overseeing the Interfund Lending Program.

For the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund did not utilize the credit facilities or the Interfund Lending Program.

Taxes on foreign dividends and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the fund's understanding of the applicable countries' tax rules and rates. Deferred foreign capital gains tax, if any, is accrued daily based upon net unrealized gains. The fund has filed tax reclaims for previously withheld taxes on dividends earned in certain European Union countries. These filings are subject to various administrative and judicial proceedings within these countries. Such tax reclaims received during the year, if any, are included in dividend income. No other amounts for additional tax reclaims are reflected in the financial statements due to the uncertainty as to the ultimate resolution of proceedings, the likelihood of receipt of these reclaims, and the potential timing of payment.

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At October 31, 2021, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $92,000, representing less than 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.04% of Vanguard’s capital received pursuant to the FSA. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

Permanent differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of net assets are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. As of period end, permanent differences primarily attributable to the accounting for foreign currency transactions and passive foreign investment companies were reclassified between the individual components of total distributable earnings (loss).

Temporary differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) arise when certain items of income, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. The differences are primarily related to the deferral of losses from wash sales; the recognition of unrealized gains or losses from certain derivative contracts; and the recognition of unrealized gains

Your Fund’s Performance at a Glance

•	For the 12 months ended October 31, 2021, Vanguard International Dividend Appreciation Index returned 29.93% for ETF Shares (based on net asset value) and 29.31% for Admiral Shares. Vanguard International High Dividend Yield Index Fund returned 39.55% for ETF Shares and 38.91% for Admiral Shares.
•	The funds returned less than their benchmarks in part because of differences in the prices of securities used by the funds to calculate their net asset value and the quoted or published prices for the same securities.¹ Differences in the way the indexes and the funds treat certain capital gains also played a role.
•	Of the major regional sectors, Europe was the biggest contributor to returns for both funds.
•	All 10 industry sectors recorded positive returns for the fiscal year. Industrial stocks contributed most to returns for the International Dividend Appreciation Index Fund. In the International High Dividend Yield Index Fund, financial stocks had the largest sector weighting and made the largest contribution to performance.

About Your Fund’s Expenses

The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:

•

	Beginning Account Value 4/30/2021	Ending Account Value 10/31/2021	Expenses Paid During Period
Based on Actual Fund Return

International High Dividend Yield Index Fund
ETF Shares	$1,000.00	$1,038.20	$1.03
Admiral Shares	1,000.00	1,038.30	0.98
Based on Hypothetical 5% Yearly Return

ETF Shares	$1,000.00	$1,024.60	$0.61
Admiral Shares	1,000.00	1,024.50	0.71
International High Dividend Yield Index Fund
ETF Shares	$1,000.00	$1,024.20	$1.02
Admiral Shares	1,000.00	1,024.25	0.97

The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The funds' annualized six-month expense ratios for that period are: for the International Dividend Appreciation Index Fund, 0.12% for ETF Shares and 0.14% for Admiral Shares; and for the International High Dividend Yield Index Fund, 0.20% for ETF Shares and 0.19% for Admiral Shares. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid" are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period (184/365).

International Dividend Appreciation Index Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard International Dividend Appreciation Index Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers two classes of shares: ETF Shares and Admiral Shares. Each of the share classes has different eligibility and minimum purchase requirements, and is designed for different types of investors. ETF Shares are listed for trading on Nasdaq; they can be purchased and sold through a broker.

A.	The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund's net asset value.

International Dividend Appreciation Index Fund

Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. Any securities pledged as initial margin for open contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments.

International Dividend Appreciation Index Fund

During the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund’s average investment in forward currency contracts represented 1% of net assets, based on the average of the notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

5. Swap Contracts: The fund has entered into equity swap contracts to earn the total return on selected reference stocks in the fund’s target index. Under the terms of the swaps, the fund receives the total return on the referenced stock (i.e., receiving the increase or paying the decrease in value of the selected reference stock and receiving the equivalent of any dividends in respect of the selected referenced stock) over a specified period of time, applied to a notional amount that represents the value of a designated number of shares of the selected reference stock at the beginning of the equity swap contract. The fund also pays a floating rate that is based on short-term interest rates, applied to the notional amount. At the same time, the fund generally invests an amount approximating the notional amount of the swap in high-quality temporary cash investments.

A risk associated with all types of swaps is the possibility that a counterparty may default on its obligation to pay net amounts due to the fund. The fund’s maximum amount subject to counterparty risk is the unrealized appreciation on the swap contract. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into swaps only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, entering into master netting arrangements with its counterparties, and requiring its counterparties to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. In the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any swap contracts with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements. The swap contracts contain provisions whereby a counterparty may terminate open contracts if the fund’s net assets decline below a certain level, triggering a payment by the fund if the fund is in a net liability position at the time of the termination. The payment amount would be reduced by any collateral the fund has pledged. Any securities pledged as collateral for open contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments. The value of collateral received or pledged is compared daily to the value of the swap contracts exposure with each counterparty, and any difference, if in excess of a specified minimum transfer amount, is adjusted and settled within two business days.

6. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. The fund’s tax returns are open to examination by the relevant tax authorities until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is

International Dividend Appreciation Index Fund

7. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are determined on a tax basis at the fiscal year-end and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes.

8. Securities Lending: To earn additional income, the fund lends its securities to qualified institutional borrowers. Security loans are subject to termination by the fund at any time, and are required to be secured at all times by collateral in an amount at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. Daily market fluctuations could cause the value of loaned securities to be more or less than the value of the collateral received. When this occurs, the collateral is adjusted and settled before the opening of the market on the next business day. The fund further mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into securities lending transactions only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, and entering into master securities lending agreements with its counterparties. The master securities lending agreements provide that, in the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any loans with that borrower, determine the net amount owed, and sell or retain the collateral up to the net amount owed to the fund; however, such actions may be subject to legal proceedings. While collateral mitigates counterparty risk, in the event of a default, the fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Collateral investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are subject to market appreciation or depreciation. Securities lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on invested cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan. During the term of the loan, the fund is entitled to all distributions made on or in respect of the loaned securities.

9. Collateral for ETF Capital Activity: When an authorized participant fails to deliver one or more of the securities within a designated basket (in the case of a subscription), fails to deliver the fund ETF Shares (in the case of a redemption), or is required by the fund, prior to settlement, to accommodate the trading of foreign securities in local markets (in the case of redemption for an international equity ETF), the fund may require the authorized participant to deliver and maintain cash collateral in accordance with the authorized participant agreement. The fund may invest the collateral in short-term debt instruments or U.S. Treasury securities, or maintain the balance as cash. Daily market fluctuations could cause the value of the missing securities or fund ETF Shares to be more or less than the value of the collateral received; when this occurs the collateral is adjusted. The fund earns interest income from investments and/or custody fee offsets from the cash balance. The fund records an asset (cash or investment, as applicable) and a corresponding liability for the return of the collateral in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Interest income and custody fee offsets earned on the investment of collateral are included in the Statement of Operations.

10. Credit Facilities and Interfund Lending Program: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group ("Vanguard") participate in a $4.3 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement and an uncommitted credit facility provided by Vanguard. Both facilities may be renewed annually. Each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facilities. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes, subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. With

International Dividend Appreciation Index Fund

respect to the committed credit facility, the participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn committed amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under either facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (or an acceptable alternate rate, if necessary), federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread, except that borrowings under the uncommitted credit facility may bear interest based upon an alternate rate agreed to by the fund and Vanguard.

For the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund did not utilize the credit facilities or the Interfund Lending Program.

11. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in income, if any, are recorded at the fair value of the securities received.Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities, except for premiums on certain callable debt securities that are amortized to the earliest call date. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold. Fees assessed on capital share transactions are credited to paid-in capital.

Taxes on foreign dividends and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the fund’s understanding of the applicable countries’ tax rules and rates. Foreign capital gains tax, if any, is accrued daily based upon applicable net unrealized gains. The fund has filed tax reclaims for previously withheld taxes on dividends earned in certain European Union countries. These filings are subject to various administrative and judicial proceedings within these countries. Such tax reclaims received during the year, if any, are included in dividend income. No other amounts for additional tax reclaims are reflected in the financial statements due to the uncertainty as to the ultimate resolution of proceedings, the likelihood of receipt of these reclaims, and the potential timing of payment.

International Dividend Appreciation Index Fund

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At October 31, 2021, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $146,000, representing less than 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.06% of Vanguard’s capital received pursuant to the FSA. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

Permanent differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of net assets are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. As of period end, permanent differences primarily attributable to the accounting for in-kind redemptions, foreign currency transactions, passive foreign investment companies, distributions in connection with fund share redemptions, swap agreements, and tax expense on capital gains were reclassified between the following accounts:

	Amount ($000)
Paid-in Capital	100,610
Total Distributable Earnings (Loss)	(100,610)

Temporary differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) arise when certain items of income, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods

International Dividend Appreciation Index Fund

for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. The differences are primarily related to the deferral of losses from wash sales; the recognition of unrealized gains or losses from certain derivative contracts; and the recognition of unrealized gains from passive foreign investment companies. As of period end, the tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) are detailed in the table as follows:

International High Dividend Yield Index Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard International High Dividend Yield Index Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers two classes of shares: ETF Shares and Admiral Shares. Each of the share classes has different eligibility and minimum purchase requirements, and is designed for different types of investors. ETF Shares are listed for trading on Nasdaq; they can be purchased and sold through a broker.

A.	The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund's net asset value.

3. Futures Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objectives of maintaining full exposure to the stock market, maintaining liquidity, and minimizing transaction costs. The fund may purchase futures contracts to immediately invest incoming cash in the market, or sell futures in response to cash outflows, thereby simulating a fully invested position in the underlying index while maintaining a cash balance for liquidity. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The

International High Dividend Yield Index Fund

During the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund’s average investment in forward currency contracts represented less than 1% of net assets, based on the average of the notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

International High Dividend Yield Index Fund

In accordance with an exemptive order (the “Order”) from the SEC, the fund may participate in a joint lending and borrowing program that allows registered open-end Vanguard funds to borrow

International High Dividend Yield Index Fund

For the year ended October 31, 2021, the fund did not utilize the credit facilities or the Interfund Lending Program.

9. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in income, if any, are recorded at the fair value of the securities received. Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

Permanent differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of net assets are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. As of period end, permanent differences primarily attributable to the accounting for foreign currency transactions, passive foreign investment companies, and tax expense on capital gains were reclassified between the individual components of total distributable earnings (loss).

Temporary differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) arise when certain items of income, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. The differences are primarily related to the deferral of losses from wash sales; the recognition of unrealized gains or losses from certain derivative contracts; and the recognition of unrealized gains
