VanEck China Bond ETF CBON Strategy

The investment seeks to replicate as closely as possible, before fees and expenses, the price and yield performance of the FTSE Chinese Broad Bond 0-10 Years Diversified Select Index. The fund normally invests at least 80% of its total assets in securities that comprise the fund's benchmark index. The index is calculated by FTSE Russell Ltd. and is entirely comprised of fixed-rate, Renminbi-denominated bonds issued in the People’s Republic of China (“China” or the “PRC”) by Chinese credit, governmental and quasi-governmental (e.g.,policy banks) issuers (“RMB Bonds”) with a maturity of 0-10 years. The fund is non-diversified.
