The Vanguard Group, Inc. is an American registered investment advisor based in Malvern, Pennsylvania, with about $7 trillion in global assets under management, as of January 13, 2021. It is the largest provider of mutual funds and the second-largest provider of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the world after BlackRock's iShares. In addition to mutual funds and ETFs, Vanguard offers brokerage services, educational account services, financial planning, asset management, and trust services. Several mutual funds managed by Vanguard are ranked at the top of the list of US mutual funds by assets under management. Along with BlackRock and State Street, Vanguard is considered to be one of the Big Three index fund managers that dominate corporate America.

Founder and former chairman John C. Bogle is credited with the creation of the first index fund available to individual investors and was a proponent and major enabler of low-cost investing by individuals, though Rex Sinquefield has also been credited with the first index fund open to the public a few years before Bogle.

Vanguard is owned by the funds managed by the company and is therefore owned by its customers. Vanguard offers two classes of most of its funds: investor shares and admiral shares. Admiral shares have slightly lower expense ratios but require a higher minimum investment, often between $3,000 and $100,000 per fund. Vanguard's corporate headquarters is in Malvern, a suburb of Philadelphia. It has satellite offices in Charlotte, North Carolina, Dallas, Texas, Washington D.C. and Scottsdale, Arizona. The company also has offices in Canada, Australia, Asia, and Europe.

This will only talk about the company, its animation division, Lionsgate and Hasbro/Entertainment One. The Walt Disney Company will be in a separate page.

Why It's Not a Vanguard

Overall

  1. The main problem with this company is that they don't listen to criticism more often (especially the animated films and companies) like the critically panned film Norm of the North and Peppa Pig, so they still financially owns The Walt Disney Company, Lionsgate, Warner Bros. Discovery and Hasbro/Entertainment One (due to the companies they own are mediocre and bad) even worsened due to the selfish money they have.

Vanguard Animation

  1. They made several bad films such as Happily N'Ever After, Space Chimps, and films for Netflix such as Fe@rLeSS and Dog Gone Trouble.
    • Their earliest animated films such as Space Chimps and Happily N'Ever After have ugly-looking CGI, as if they were done on either Blender or Cinema 4D (what's worse is that there are animations on those softwares that are better than this).
