††Vanguard received the top rating for ”#1 Most Trusted Financial Companies- ETF/Fund Companies" for 2022 among 11 other ETF and fund companies selected by Investor's Business Daily (IBD). IBD, in partnership with TechnoMetrica, conducted 2 independent polls and surveyed more than 6,500 consumers in June and July 2022. This year's survey was also co-presented by IBD's sister company, MarketWatch. After 2 phases of research, IBD computed the component scores by taking the difference between the percentage of respondents assigning very high or high rating and the percentage who gave a low or very low rating. Based on the results, the associated weightings are as follows: Quality of products and services (19.09%), ethical business practices and values (16.97%), privacy and security of personal data (16.32% weighting), customer service (16.2% weighting), fair prices and fees (14.15% weighting), and company responsiveness to customer needs (12.32% weighting). Additional details about IBD's methodology are available on their website. Although Vanguard compensates IBD for marketing services, IBD's opinions and evaluations are independent and unrelated to the selection for this award.
