About

The Vanguard High-Yield Corporate Fund is an investment vehicle that primarily allocates capital to a diverse array of medium and lower-quality corporate debt, often colloquially known as "junk bonds." Established in 1978, its unique strategy focuses on carefully selecting what its advisors consider to be the higher-quality end of the high-yield spectrum. This selective approach aims to generate a consistent stream of income for investors while striving to mitigate the risks of defaults and capital erosion. Crucially, despite being a bond fund, the inherent nature of high-yield debt means its price movements can exhibit volatility comparable to that of equity markets.
