Hi Aris, Welcome to this week's special edition of Smart Investing.
Fifty years ago this month, John C. Bogle started a different kind of investment firm - one owned by its investors, ensuring a focus on making money for them, not from them.
Pioneering the development of index funds – low-cost funds designed to replicate the performance of a specific financial market index by investing in a broad range of securities - Bogle's vision was to take a stand for all investors, to treat them fairly, and to give them the best chance for investment success.
Today, Vanguard manages over $16 trillion in assets globally, including $5 trillion in exchange traded funds (ETFs), on behalf of more 50 million investors.
Former Vanguard Investments Australia executive, Robin Bowerman, reflects on Bogle's enduring legacy. Separately, we look at how Vanguard has totally changed the investment game and saved Australian investors billions of dollars in fees over time.
Lastly, with the end of the financial year fast approaching, there's a limited amount of time to take full advantage of this year's annual superannuation contribution caps. We show five ways to get more into your super before 30 June. | |
