About Vanguard

At Vanguard, we stand for inclusion, cultivating difference and equality. These core values are lived at the level of our crew, clients and the communities we serve worldwide.

More than 45 years ago, John C. Bogle had a vision to start an investment company that did things differently. A company with no external shareholders. Where all the profits were invested back into the business and used to lower costs. Evidently, it was as bold as it was brilliant. To this day, Vanguard Group still has no external shareholders. That means no share prices to protect, and no profits to generate for outside owners.
