VGI offers both passive and active discretionary investment advisory services that cover the US and international markets. They employ two types of indexing strategies: replication and sampling. Their active management equity methodology is based on quantitative modeling while fixed income analysis is based on fundamental investment research and research obtained from external investment organizations.

VAML aims to be the highest value provider of investment products and services to UK investors by utilizing a combination of applied theory and experience and by pursuing an investment philosophy which puts their clients first. The firm offers a range of index funds, funds-of-index funds and exchange-traded funds. Their index funds aim to deliver the returns of selected well-known indexes through broadly diversified portfolios. They implement portfolios based on full replication techniques where possible as this is the 'purest' form of indexing and results in lower tracking error.
