Vanguard launched the first index fund 50 years ago, changing the way people invest. Rodney Comegys, global head of Equity at Vanguard, says that index investing has expanded access to the market and saved US investors over $500 million in the last 25 years. Comegys supervises $8.5 trillion in assets and believes that index investing has reduced costs and increased access to investment. He also notes that investors should consider their risk tolerance and time horizon when choosing between different types of index funds.
