VanEck Africa Index ETF

Strategie

The Fund normally invests at least 80% of its total assets in securities that comprise the Fund's benchmark index. For purposes of this policy, the term "assets" means net assets plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes. The Africa Index includes securities of African companies. African companies generally include local listings of companies that are incorporated in Africa and listings of companies incorporated outside of Africa but that have at least 50% of their revenues/related assets in Africa. Such companies may include small- and medium-capitalization companies. Subject to country and issuer limitations, the country weightings in the Africa Index are based on their relative gross domestic product ("GDP") weights as compared to all other countries represented in the Africa Index.

Ziel

VanEck® Africa Index ETF (the "Fund") seeks to replicate as closely as possible, before fees and expenses, the price and yield performance of the MVIS® GDP Africa Index (the "Africa Index" or the "Index").
