Key figures, answered

What is VISM.AX's management fee?

Vanguard MSCI International Small Companies Index ETF charges 0.32% a year as of 7 October 2026, about $32 for every $10,000 invested. The fee is deducted from the fund's assets whatever it returns, so it never appears as a bill. Brokerage and the bid-ask spread are extra costs. Compare it with funds that track the same market.

How large is VISM.AX?

Vanguard MSCI International Small Companies Index ETF manages 970.07M AUD in assets as of 7 October 2026. Size matters because larger funds are less likely to close, which could force investors to sell at an inconvenient time, and they usually trade with tighter bid-ask spreads, a cost that does not appear in the fee.

What does VISM.AX hold?

Vanguard MSCI International Small Companies Index ETF's largest holdings are Moderna Inc (0.4%), US Foods Holding Corp (0.2%) and Tenet Healthcare Corp (0.2%), and its ten largest together make up 2% of the fund. A higher top-ten share means the fund's returns depend more heavily on a few companies. The full holdings are in the issuer's documents.

How has VISM.AX performed?

Vanguard MSCI International Small Companies Index ETF returned 13.6% a year over three years and 7.7% a year over five, against 0.0% a year for its category over three years.
