VAGP versus VGOV
Posted: October 8th, 2023, 1:57 pm
Hi,
Am in a bit of a tricky position in that I would like to reduce equity exposure and am considering Vanguard UK Gilts (VGOV) and / or Vanguard Global Bonds (VAGP). I imagine that with VAGP I am adding currency risk but am not ubduly concerned about that. Other than currency, are there any other factors that might persuade me to opt for one over the other, or should I just go 50/50 and buy both?
Thank you for any comments.
