Review of Vanguard LifeStrategy Funds. The statistics on active management are simply atrocious and size Blackrock manages over 6 trillion and resources about 15000 employees in 30 countries are no guarantee that Blackrock will be able to outperform a simpler alternative like LifeStrategy. Blackrock and Vanguard hold large interests in pivotal companies and Vanguard holds a large share of Blackrock.
Vanguards engagement distribution has a heavier weighing in the mid-range than BlackRock.
