Vanguard Developed Markets Index Fund Annual Report December 31, 2020 Annual Report | December 31, 2020 Vanguard Developed Markets Index Fund Contents Your Fund’s Performance at a Glance. 1 About Your Fund’s Expenses. 2 Performance Summary. .4 Financial Statements. 7 Please note: The opinions expressed in this report are just that—informed opinions. They should not be considered promises or advice. Also, please keep in mind that the information and opinions cover the period through the date on the front of this report. Of course, the risks of investing in your fund are spelled out in the prospectus. Your Fund’s Performance at a Glance • Vanguard Developed Markets Index Fund’s returns for the 12 months ended December 31, 2020, ranged from 10.11% for Investor Shares to 10.29% for ETF Shares. The fund’s benchmark, the FTSE Developed All Cap ex US Index, returned 10.00%. • The emergence of COVID-19 in early 2020 turned into a global health crisis, and aggressive attempts to contain it resulted in a sharp downturn in economic activity. Unemployment spiked, and sectors where social distancing isn’t possible were hit hard. Stocks initially plummeted as infections surged, but they finished the year significantly higher. The gain was thanks in part to rapid and robust monetary and fiscal action by policymakers and the rollout of COVID-19 vaccines as the year drew to a close. • The technology and industrial sectors contributed the most to results, while financials detracted. • Over the past decade, the fund recorded an average annual return of almost 6%, in line with its benchmark index.

Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the fund. A fund’s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period. The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways: • Based on actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The ”Ending Account Value“ shown is derived from the fund‘s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund under the heading ”Expenses Paid During Period.“ • Based on hypothetical 5% yearly return. This section is intended to help you compare your fund‘s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had a yearly return of 5% before expenses, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case—because the return used is not the fund’s actual return—the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess your fund’s costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds. Note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only and do not reflect transaction costs incurred by the fund for buying and selling securities. Further, the expenses do not include any purchase, redemption, or account service fees described in the fund prospectus. If such fees were applied to your account, your costs would be higher. Your fund does not carry a “sales load.” The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions. You can find more information about the fund’s expenses, including annual expense ratios, in the Financial Statements section of this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to your fund’s current prospectus. 2 Six Months Ended December 31, 2020 Beginning Ending Expenses Account Value Account Value Paid During Developed Markets Index Fund 6/30/2020 12/31/2020 Period Based on Actual Fund Return Investor Shares $1,000.00 $1,234.59 $0.90 FTSE Developed Markets ETF Shares 1,000.00 1,235.69 0.28 Admiral™ Shares 1,000.00 1,235.57 0.39 Institutional Shares 1,000.00 1,235.34 0.28 Institutional Plus Shares 1,000.00 1,235.64 0.22 Based on Hypothetical 5% Yearly Return Investor Shares $1,000.00 $1,024.33 $0.81 FTSE Developed Markets ETF Shares 1,000.00 1,024.89 0.25 Admiral Shares 1,000.00 1,024.78 0.36 Institutional Shares 1,000.00 1,024.89 0.25 Institutional Plus Shares 1,000.00 1,024.94 0.20 The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The fund’s annualized six-month expense ratios for that period are 0.16% for Investor Shares, 0.05% for FTSE Developed Markets ETF Shares, 0.07% for Admiral Shares, 0.05% for Institutional Shares, and 0.04% for Institutional Plus Shares. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period (184/366). 3 Developed Markets Index Fund Performance Summary All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results that may be achieved by the fund. (Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit our website at vanguard.com/performance.) Note, too, that both investment returns and principal value can fluctuate widely, so an investor’s shares, when sold, could be worth more or less than their original cost. The returns shown do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the sale of fund shares.

  • Japanese Manufacturing Affiliates in Europe and Turkey
    06-ORD 70H-002AA 7 Japanese Manufacturing Affiliates in Europe and Turkey - 2005 Survey - September 2006 Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO) Preface The survey on “Japanese manufacturing affiliates in Europe and Turkey” has been conducted 22 times since the first survey in 1983*. The latest survey, carried out from January 2006 to February 2006 targeting 16 countries in Western Europe, 8 countries in Central and Eastern Europe, and Turkey, focused on business trends and future prospects in each country, procurement of materials, production, sales, and management problems, effects of EU environmental regulations, etc. The survey revealed that as of the end of 2005 there were a total of 1,008 Japanese manufacturing affiliates operating in the surveyed region --- 818 in Western Europe, 174 in Central and Eastern Europe, and 16 in Turkey. Of this total, 291 affiliates --- 284 in Western Europe, 6 in Central and Eastern Europe, and 1 in Turkey --- also operate R & D or design centers. Also, the number of Japanese affiliates who operate only R & D or design centers in the surveyed region (no manufacturing operations) totaled 129 affiliates --- 125 in Western Europe and 4 in Central and Eastern Europe. In this survey we put emphasis on the effects of EU environmental regulations on Japanese manufacturing affiliates. We would like to express our great appreciation to the affiliates concerned for their kind cooperation, which have enabled us over the years to constantly improve the survey and report on the results. We hope that the affiliates and those who are interested in business development in Europe and/or Turkey will find this report useful.
