The Vanguard Short-Term Bond ETF (BSV) aims to mirror the investment performance of the Bloomberg U.S. 1–5 Year Government/Credit Float Adjusted Index. This particular benchmark is a market-capitalization-weighted fixed-income gauge that features high-quality (investment-grade) debt securities with a dollar-weighted average remaining maturity ranging from one to five years. To achieve its objective, the fund primarily allocates its capital to U.S. government bonds, top-tier corporate debt, and highly-rated international bonds denominated in U.S. dollars. All securities held within the portfolio must possess an investment-grade credit rating. The ETF employs a passive management strategy, utilizing an index sampling methodology to efficiently replicate the benchmark's characteristics.
Distribution yield and SEC yield use different methodologies. Payouts may include income, capital gains, or return of capital.
