Objective
The Inflation Protected Bond Portfolio seeks to track the performance of a benchmark index that measures the investment return of inflation-protected public obligations of the U.S. Treasury with remaining maturities of less than 5 years.
Strategy
The Portfolio invests 100% of its assets in Vanguard Short-Term Inflation-Protected Securities Index Fund. The Underlying Fund employs an indexing investment approach designed to track the performance of the Barclays U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) 0-5 Year Index. The Index is a market-capitalization-weighted index that includes all inflation-protected public obligations issued by the U.S. Treasury with remaining maturities of less than 5 years.
The Underlying Fund attempts to replicate the target index by investing all, or substantially all, of its assets in the securities that make up the Index, holding each security in approximately the same proportion as its weighting in the Index. The Underlying Fund maintains a dollar-weighted average maturity consistent with that of the target index, which generally does not exceed 3 years.
Risks
As with any investment, your investment in the Portfolio could lose money or the Portfolio's performance could trail that of other investments. Each Portfolio has a different level of risk. For a full description of the investment risks associated with this Portfolio, see the Program Description.
