Since
its beginning in 1975, Vanguard has grown to become one of the world’s
largest investment management companies, with approximately $850 billion
under management. We provide an extensive array of investment products
and services to meet the needs of financial advisors and their clients,
including a full range of exchange-traded funds and more than 125 mutual
funds.
Most
investment firms are either publicly traded or privately owned. Vanguard
is different: We’re client-owned. Helping our investors achieve
their goals is literally our sole reason for existence. With no other
parties to answer to and therefore no conflicting loyalties, we make
every decision with only our investors’ needs in mind. This unique
structure, along with our commitment to providing outstanding performance
and service at the lowest possible cost, provides financial advisors
with many opportunities for building their businesses and enhancing
their client relationships.
We
believe low costs are crucial to generating consistently strong investment
performance. Our cost structure allows you, as a fee-based advisor,
to set attractive fees for your clients. In addition, you get the latest
information on current trends, as well as astute investment analysis,
from our highly respected research teams. We also provide you with resources
for building client loyalty using our research-based, client-approved
education materials designed to help your clients become better-informed
investors. Connect with Vanguard at advisors.vanguard.com or call 800-997-2798.
