The Vanguard FTSE Pacific Index Fund ETF Shares offers cost-efficient exposure to Asia-Pacific equities, but its heavy Japanese focus has hindered performance of late, with only 7% YTD returns. With 60% of this portfolio coming from Japan, it will be difficult for the VPL ETF to flourish, unless conditions in this region pick up.
