“Therefore, after a considerable period of review, we have decided to withdraw from NZAM so that we can provide the clarity our investors desire about the role of index funds and about how we think about material risks, including climate-related risks—and to make clear that Vanguard speaks independently on matters of importance to our investors.”
Well that is good. Except for one thing... BlackRock owns the controlling interest in Vanguard. so Vanguard is BlackRock.
But that explains why they are not also listed. Thank you!
