BSV vs VTES Which Bond Fund Wins | Business and Finance News
Description
Want safer income with minimal risk? Vanguard’s BSV and VTES bond funds offer similar stability but diverge sharply on taxes and yield. BSV delivers a juicy 4% dividend with zero tax burden, while VTES offers tax-free municipal income at a lower 2.7% yield—but comes with higher fees. BSV’s massive size and broad U.S. Treasury/corporate holdings make it ideal for most investors chasing income. VTES shines for high earners who can leverage tax savings, though you’ll need a big enough stake to justify the lower yield and extra cost. Both funds are solid choices—pick the one that fits your tax bracket and income goals.
