The Vanguard FTSE All-World ex-US Small-Cap Index Fund ETF (VSS) is a passively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks to replicate the performance of the FTSE Global Small Cap ex U.S. Index. The target index is float-adjusted and market-capitalization-weighted, designed to capture the equity performance of international small-capitalization companies outside the United States. Under normal market conditions, the fund commits at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, to the constituent stocks of the target index.
The fund falls within the Foreign Small/Mid Blend category, giving investors broad-based exposure to smaller companies across both developed and emerging markets ex-US. As a Vanguard index product, VSS operates on a low-cost passive management model, tracking a rules-based benchmark rather than relying on active security selection.
- US dollar weakness lifts international small-cap returns
