What Vanguard Global Bond Index Fund EUR Hedged Acc is
Vanguard Global Bond Index Fund EUR Hedged Acc is a index fund managed by Vanguard, classified by Morningstar as Global Diversified Bond - EUR Hedged and domiciled in Ireland. It was launched on 27 Feb 2014 and manages 23.09bn GBP. Its ongoing charge is 0.15% a year. It accumulates its income (no dividends paid out).
It belongs to the bonds family: Bonds cover government and corporate debt. In a portfolio they're usually there for stability rather than return, and they behave nothing like equities.
Stated objective, as published by Financial Times:
The Fund seeks to provide returns consistent with the performance of the Index. The Fund will invest in a portfolio of securities that, insofar as possible and practicable, consists of a representative sample of the component securities of the Index. All of the Fund’s investments will be selected through the sampling process.

Last year at a glance
Weekly closes over the last year according to Yahoo Finance, in EUR. From 8 September 2025 to 7 September 2026 it went from 100.10 to 97.86: -2.2%. This is historical data, not a forecast, and says nothing about what comes next.
What to check before
Two things change the profile a lot: the maturity (a short-term fund is nothing like one holding bonds over 20 years) and whether it carries currency hedging. In unhedged global bonds, the exchange rate can weigh more than the bonds themselves, which is why so many products in this family are EUR Hedged.
Other bonds products
These are the other products of the same family in the catalogue. They share a benchmark, so the real differences are the TER, the currency, whether they accumulate or distribute and where they are listed.
