A. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Bonds and temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund's net asset value.Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued at their fair values calculated according to procedures adopted by the board of trustees.

B. Foreign Currency: Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates obtained from an independent third party as of the fund’s pricing time on the valuation date. Realized gains (losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment securities include the effects of changes in exchange rates since the securities were purchased, combined with the effects of changes in security prices. Fluctuations in the value of other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains (losses) until the assets or liabilities are settled in cash, at which time they are recorded as realized foreign currency gains (losses).
C. Futures Contracts: The fund uses futures contracts to invest in fixed income asset classes with greater efficiency and lower cost than is possible through direct investment, to add value when these instruments are attractively priced, or to adjust sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of bonds held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. Any securities pledged as initial margin for open contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments.
Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded as an asset (liability).
D. Forward Currency Contracts: The fund enters into forward currency contracts to protect the value of securities and related receivables and payables against changes in future foreign exchange rates. The fund’s risks in using these contracts include movement in the values of the foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar and the ability of the counterparties to fulfill their obligations under the contracts. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into forward currency contracts only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, entering into master netting arrangements with its counterparties, and requiring its counterparties to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. The master netting arrangements provide that, in the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate the forward currency contracts, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements. The forward currency contracts contain provisions whereby a counterparty may terminate open contracts if the fund’s net assets decline below a certain level, triggering a payment by the fund if the fund is in a net liability position at the time of the termination. The payment amount would be reduced by any collateral the fund has pledged. Any securities pledged as collateral for open contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments. The value of collateral received or pledged is compared daily to the value of the forward currency contracts exposure with each counterparty, and any difference, if in excess of a specified minimum transfer amount, is adjusted and settled within two business days.
Forward currency contracts are valued at their quoted daily prices obtained from an independent third party, adjusted for currency risk based on the expiration date of each contract. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded as an asset (liability).
E. Options: The fund invests in options on foreign currency, which are transacted over-the-counter (OTC) and not on an exchange. Unlike exchange-traded options, which are standardized with respect to the underlying instrument, expiration date, contract size, and strike price, the terms of OTC options generally are established through negotiation with the other party to the option contract. Although this type of arrangement allows the purchaser or writer greater flexibility to

tailor an option to its needs, OTC options generally involve greater credit risk than exchange-traded options. Credit risk involves the possibility that a counterparty may default on its obligation to pay net amounts due to the fund. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into options with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties and monitoring their financial strength. The primary risk associated with purchasing options on foreign currency is that the value of the underlying foreign currencies may move in such a way that the option is out-of-the-money (the exercise price of the option exceeds the value of the underlying investment), the position is worthless at expiration, and the fund loses the premium paid. The primary risk associated with selling options on foreign currency is that the value of the underlying foreign currencies may move in such a way that the option is in-the-money (the exercise price of the option exceeds the value of the underlying investment), the counterparty exercises the option, and the fund loses an amount equal to the market value of the option written less the premium received.
Options contracts on foreign currency are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The premium paid for a purchased option is recorded as an asset that is subsequently adjusted daily to the current market value of the option purchased. The premium received for a written option is recorded as an asset with an equal liability that is subsequently adjusted daily to the current market value of the option written. Fluctuations in the value of the options are recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until expired, closed, or exercised, at which time realized gains (losses) are recognized.
F. Swap Contracts: The fund invests in credit default swaps to adjust the overall credit risk of the fund or to actively overweight or underweight credit risk to a specific issuer or group of issuers. The fund may sell credit protection through credit default swaps to simulate investments in long positions that are either unavailable or considered to be less attractively priced in the bond market. The fund may purchase credit protection through credit default swaps to reduce credit exposure to a given issuer or issuers. Under the terms of the swaps, an up-front payment may be exchanged between the seller and buyer. In addition, the seller of the credit protection receives a periodic payment of premium from the buyer that is a fixed percentage applied to a notional amount. If, for example, the reference entity is subject to a credit event (such as bankruptcy, failure to pay, or obligation acceleration) during the term of the swap, the seller agrees to either physically settle or cash settle the swap contract. If the swap is physically settled, the seller agrees to pay the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount and take delivery of a debt instrument of the reference issuer with a par amount equal to such notional amount. If the swap is cash settled, the seller agrees to pay the buyer the difference between the notional amount and the final price for the relevant debt instrument, as determined either in a market auction or pursuant to a pre-agreed-upon valuation procedure.
The fund enters into centrally cleared interest rate and credit default swaps to achieve the same objectives specified with respect to the equivalent over-the-counter swaps but with less counterparty risk because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker or executing broker. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance, and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades with a diverse group of prequalified executing brokers; monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers, executing brokers, and clearinghouse; and has entered into agreements with its clearing brokers and executing brokers.
The primary risk associated with selling credit protection is that, upon the occurrence of a defined credit event, the market value of the debt instrument received by the fund (or, in a cash settled swap, the debt instruments used to determine the settlement payment by the fund) will be significantly less than the amount paid by the fund and, in a physically settled swap, the fund may receive an illiquid debt instrument. A risk associated with all types of swaps is the possibility that a counterparty may default on its obligation to pay net amounts due to the fund. The fund’s maximum amount subject to counterparty risk is the unrealized appreciation on the swap contract. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into swaps only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, entering into master netting

arrangements with its counterparties, and requiring its counterparties to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. In the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any swap contracts with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements. The swap contracts contain provisions whereby a counterparty may terminate open contracts if the fund’s net assets decline below a certain level, triggering a payment by the fund if the fund is in a net liability position at the time of the termination. The payment amount would be reduced by any collateral the fund has pledged. Any securities pledged as collateral for open contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments. The value of collateral received or pledged is compared daily to the value of the swap contracts exposure with each counterparty, and any difference, if in excess of a specified minimum transfer amount, is adjusted and settled within two business days.
Swaps are valued daily based on market quotations received from independent pricing services or recognized dealers and the change in value is recorded as an asset (liability) and as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the seller of credit protection is required to take delivery (or, in a cash settled swap, pay the settlement amount determined) upon occurrence of a credit event, periodic payments are made, or the swap terminates, at which time realized gain (loss) is recorded. The net premium to be received or paid by the fund under swap contracts is accrued daily and recorded as realized gain (loss) over the life of the contract.
G.  Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments and derivatives. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments). Any investments and derivatives valued with significant unobservable inputs are noted on the Schedule of Investments.

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments and derivatives as of December 31, 2021, based on the inputs used to value them:
