Vanguard International Shares Index (Hedged)

October 28, 2024. We refer to the distributions posted on the Distribution History webpage between 15 August 2024 to 19 September 2024. During this period, the Distribution History for this product incorrectly displayed duplicates of the December 2023 distribution records for WealthFocus Investment Advantage Vanguard International Shares Inex (Hedged) for the 2024 Financial Year, and resulted in an inaccurate subtotal for the 2024 Financial Year. This has been rectified and the correct distribution history has been displayed on our website from 19 September 2024. The Distribution data summary included in this product page was not impacted.
We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused. If you have any questions, please email us at investments@perpetual.com.au or phone us on 1800 022 033 during business hours (Sydney time).
