Notice
We remain committed to keeping shareholders informed regarding the status of the VanEck Russia Small-Cap ETF (RSXJ) (the “Fund”).
The Board of Trustees approved the liquidation plan of the Fund, which remains in effect. If future developments allow for the lawful sale of the securities held by the Fund, proceeds will be distributed to shareholders in accordance with the plan. Additionally, the plan of liquidation may be amended or terminated by the Board of Trustees in certain circumstances.
At this time, we are not aware of any significant legal, regulatory, or market developments that would enable the Fund to sell its underlying securities.
We continue to believe the plan of liquidation has been designed to provide shareholders the potential to realize the future value of the underlying Russian investments, if market conditions change.
Van Eck Associates Corporation has implemented a voluntary waiver of its management fee for the Fund which will continue in effect until the Fund fully liquidates. Further details on the Fund’s distributions can be found here.
For more information, see the prospectus and/or the Liquidation FAQ.

‡All registered investment companies are obliged to distribute portfolio gains to shareholders at yearend regardless of performance. Trading VanEck ETFs will also generate tax consequences and transaction expenses. The information provided is not intended to be tax advice. Tax consequences of dividend distributions may vary by individual taxpayer. There is no guarantee that dividends will be paid. To receive a distribution, you must have been a registered shareholder of the relevant VanEck ETFs on the record date. Distributions are paid to shareholders on the payment date. Past distributions are not indicative of future distributions.
Certain distributions may constitute a return of capital, which will have the effect of reducing your cost basis in the Fund’s shares and thereby increasing the amount of capital gain, if any, or decreasing the amount of capital loss, if any, that you will realize when selling or exchanging Fund shares. The final determination of the tax characteristics cannot be determined until after each Fund’s yearend and are reported to shareholders on Form 1099-DIV. The form is mailed to shareholders shortly after calendar yearend specifying how the distributions paid by the Fund during the prior calendar year should be characterized for purposes of reporting the distribution on a shareholder’s tax return.
The tax treatment and characterization of the Fund’s distributions may vary significantly from time to time depending on whether the Fund has gains or losses on the securities in its portfolio. The Fund’s distributions will normally reflect past and projected net investment income, and may include income from dividends and interest, capital gains and/or a return of capital. The final composition of the tax characteristics of the distributions cannot be determined with certainty until after the end of the year, and will be reported to shareholders at that time. The amount of distributions will vary, depending on a number of factors. As portfolio and market conditions change, the rate of dividends may change. There can be no assurance that the Fund will be able to declare a dividend distribution in each period. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
