VB — Vanguard Small-Cap ETF

Tracks small-cap US stocks with no Sharia screening applied.

Why?

VB tracks small-cap US stocks without any Sharia screening, so it holds a mix of compliant and non-compliant businesses, including community banks and insurers.

How this was screened

Primary basis: Fund's own stated mandate.

References

• Screened against commonly applied Islamic finance criteria (business-activity exclusions plus AAOIFI-influenced financial ratio thresholds); exact methodology varies by provider (e.g. AAOIFI, S&P/Dow Jones Islamic Market, MSCI Islamic).

This is informational guidance only, not investment advice or a certified Sharia determination. Financial ratios shift every quarter — always verify current figures with a dedicated Islamic screening service or qualified financial and religious advisor before making investment decisions.
