- Vanguard Global ex-U.S. Real Estate Index Fund Admiral Shares (VGRLX) is an open-end mutual fund that employs a passive indexing investment approach designed to track the performance of the S&P Global ex-U.S. Property Index, a float-adjusted, market-capitalization-weighted benchmark measuring the equity market performance of international real estate stocks in both developed and emerging markets outside the United States. The fund invests substantially all of its assets in stocks comprising the index, including publicly traded equity real estate investment trusts (REITs) and certain real estate management and development companies (REMDs), with sector diversification across diversified real estate activities, industrial REITs, retail REITs, real estate operating companies, real estate development, diversified REITs, office REITs, and others; top holdings as of September 30, 2025, include Goodman Group, Mitsui Fudosan Co. Ltd., Mitsubishi Estate Co. Ltd., Vonovia SE, and Emaar Properties PJSC, representing 22.3% of total net assets. It maintains a low expense ratio of 0.12%, a turnover rate of 7.0%, total net assets of approximately $288 million, and charges a 0.25% purchase fee and 0.25% redemption fee, with a minimum initial investment of $3,000 for Admiral Shares. Geographically, the fund's portfolio emphasizes exposure to Japan (23.1%), Australia (11.5%), Hong Kong (7.3%), the United Kingdom (6.5%), China (5.6%), Singapore (5.5%), Germany (3.9%), India (3.5%), the United Arab Emirates (3.4%), and France (3.3%), targeting investors seeking global real estate diversification excluding U.S. properties. Launched on February 10, 2011, VGRLX operates from the headquarters of its investment manager, The Vanguard Group, Inc., in Malvern, Pennsylvania, which was founded in 1975 and serves as the parent entity managing approximately $11 trillion in assets across various mutual funds and ETFs. In recent years, the fund has maintained its core indexing strategy with no reported major changes, partnerships, acquisitions, new product launches, or reorganizations specific to VGRLX; its most recent prospectus was updated February 28, 2025, reflecting ongoing performance through the fiscal year ended October 31, 2024, and fact sheet data as of September 30, 2025, amid Vanguard's broader corporate developments such as CEO transitions and economic outlooks but without alterations to this fund's structure or objective.
