Vanguard Pacific Stock Index Fund Admiral Shares dividend comes from a broad basket of roughly 2,150 stocks across developed Pacific nations, giving investors exposure to about 25% of the global equity market outside the United States.

Vanguard Pacific Stock Index Fund Admiral Shares pays out dividends as a pass-through of income from its underlying holdings, making a traditional payout ratio not applicable (fund/ETF). Vanguard Pacific Stock Index Fund Admiral Shares dividend safety depends on the income generated by roughly 2,150 Pacific-region stocks, which fluctuates with corporate earnings across those markets. The most significant pressure on the payout is currency risk: because the fund holds foreign-denominated assets, a strengthening U.S. dollar directly reduces the dollar value of dividends passed through to shareholders.
Vanguard Pacific Stock Index Fund Admiral Shares dividend history shows a CAGR of 7.4% per year from 2013 to 2025. Per-share payments grew from $1.8870 in 2013 to $4.4681 in 2025, though the path was uneven. The largest annual increase in the window was 62.7% in 2025, and the data also contains at least one year-over-year decline exceeding 5%, reflecting how currency swings and variable corporate payouts across Pacific markets can pull distributions in either direction.
| Period | CAGR | From | To |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Year | +27.1% | $2.17 (2022) | $4.47 (2025) |
| 5-Year | +20.5% | $1.76 (2020) | $4.47 (2025) |
| 10-Year | +10.1% | $1.70 (2015) | $4.47 (2025) |
VPADX fits dividend investors who want Pacific equity exposure and can accept variable, currency-sensitive income. The yield sits at moderate (2–4%), currently at 2.08%, fractionally below its 5-year average of 2.12%, so income is not meaningfully above its own historical norm. Growth over the 2013-to-2025 window averaged 7.4% per year, but that number masks real volatility: the fund has seen both a 62.7% single-year surge and multi-year declines. What an investor gains is broad exposure to roughly 2,150 developed Pacific-market companies. The trade-off is that the dividend amount can shift sharply from year to year, driven by forces outside any single company's control.
