PRESIDENT’S LETTER

June 30, 2021
(unaudited)

Dear Fellow Shareholders:

The way we think about the financial markets—since no one knows the future for sure—is to identify potential scenarios. Last year, we said that roaring global growth would push interest rates to 1.5%-2.0% during 2021. This already happened in the first and second quarters! Now that we are into the third quarter, what next?

The mainstream, high-probability scenario (“Goldilocks”) continues to be that the rate increases pause and stock markets continue to make new highs. To support this idea of strong-but-tapering growth, the first major country that went through the COVID-19 cycle has continued to level off after its boom. Following some temporary weakness in February, China’s manufacturing PMI (Purchasing Managers’ Index) had a greater than expected rise in March (the services PMI soared), thereafter it tended to be on the weaker side. In May, however, while the official manufacturing PMI was a touch stronger than expected, the services PMI showed a significant (and surprising) pullback, raising concerns about the rebalancing. For updates on this, please follow our Emerging Markets Fixed Income Strategy Chief Economist Natalia Gurushina’s daily emails and our monthly China updates.

Another scenario is the “Wage Inflation” scenario. I like to distinguish between commodity price inflation and wage inflation. Commodity prices have been rallying strongly since last summer with almost all commodity prices continuing to touch multi-year highs. But wage inflation is more important for financial markets. Wage inflation is the driver of a longer-lasting inflation and can be hard to extinguish. The level of stimulus from the U.S. Federal Reserve we saw in 2020 was unprecedented, as is the spending planned by the new Biden administration. We may find that we are witnessing a paradigm change in the “environment” of the financial markets and a new “dynamic” compared with the last 10 years. And a burst of commodity price inflation isn’t the concern in this “Wage Inflation” scenario, rather the concern is that investment consequences could endure not only through 2021, but also well into 2022. My investment colleagues are divided on whether wage inflation is possible in an over-stimulated yet deflationary world. We’ll see in 2022.

The “Too Hot” scenario remains that, with this tremendous stimulus, we expect to see interest rates rise unexpectedly further in the second half of 2021. In fact, I believe there is a chance that 10-year U.S. interest rates can exceed 2.5% by the end of 2021—“Rate Surprise”—and that investors should have this scenario on their radar screens. This could lead to turbulence in financial markets. By definition, bonds will fall further. But again, this may be okay for equities.

Last, there is a “Too Cold” scenario. With rates below 1.5% in early July, we are suddenly facing the risk of a deflationary slowdown. Perhaps the markets think that the Fed will tighten—it did slightly signal this at the last meeting—or that the economy will react badly to the lack of new stimulus in 2022. I would call this a flavor of Goldilocks for the financial markets, but not without worries.

We sincerely thank you for investing in VanEck’s investment strategies. On the following pages, you will find financial statements for each of the funds for the six month period ended June 30, 2021. As always, we value your continued confidence in us and look forward to helping you meet your investment goals in the future.

EXPLANATION OF EXPENSES

(unaudited)

Hypothetical $1,000 investment at beginning of period

As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur operating expenses, including management fees and other Fund expenses. This disclosure is intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The disclosure is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period, January 1, 2021 to June 30, 2021.

Actual Expenses

The first line in the table below provides information about account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period.”

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2021 (unaudited)

Note 1—Fund Organization—VanEck Vectors ETF Trust (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company. The Trust was incorporated in Delaware as a statutory trust on March 15, 2001. The Trust operates as a series fund, and offers multiple investment portfolios, each of which represents a separate series of the Trust. These financial statements relate only to the investment portfolios listed in the diversification table below (each a “Fund” and, collectively, the “Funds”).

Fund		Diversification Classification

Africa Index ETF		Diversified
Brazil Small-Cap ETF		Diversified
China Growth Leaders ETF		Diversified
ChinaAMC SME-ChiNext ETF		Diversified
Egypt Index ETF		Non-Diversified
India Growth Leaders ETF		Diversified
Indonesia Index ETF		Non-Diversified
Israel ETF		Non-Diversified
Russia ETF		Non-Diversified
Russia Small-Cap ETF		Non-Diversified
Vietnam ETF		Non-Diversified

Each Fund was created to provide investors with the opportunity to purchase a security representing a proportionate undivided interest in a portfolio of securities consisting of substantially all of the common stocks in approximately the same weighting as their index. China Asset Management (Hong Kong) Limited (the “Sub-Adviser”) is the sub-adviser to China Growth Leaders ETF and ChinaAMC SME-ChiNext ETF. China Growth Leaders ETF and ChinaAMC SME-ChiNext ETF seek to achieve their investment objectives by primarily investing directly in A-shares through the Hong Kong-Shanghai Stock Connect program and via the A-share quota granted to the Sub-Adviser. India Growth Leaders ETF makes its investments through MV SCIF Mauritius (the “Subsidiary”), a wholly owned subsidiary organized in the Republic of Mauritius.

Note 2—Significant Accounting Policies—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Funds are investment companies and follow accounting and reporting requirements of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 946, Financial Services-Investment Companies.

The following summarizes the Funds’ significant accounting policies.

Security Valuation— The Funds value their investments in securities and other assets and liabilities at fair value daily. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Securities traded on national exchanges are valued at the closing price on the markets in which the securities trade. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”) are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Over-the-counter securities not included on NASDAQ and listed securities for which no sale was reported are valued at the mean of the bid and ask prices. To the extent these securities are actively traded they are categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy (described below). Certain foreign securities, whose values may be affected by market direction or events occurring before the Funds’ pricing time (4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) but after the last close of the securities’ primary market, are fair valued using a pricing service and are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The pricing service, using methods approved by the Board of Trustees, considers the correlation of the trading patterns of the foreign security to intraday trading in the U.S. markets, based on indices of domestic securities and other appropriate indicators such as prices of relevant ADR’s and futures contracts. The Funds may also fair value securities in other situations, such as when a particular foreign market is closed but the Fund is open. Short-term debt securities with sixty days or less to maturity are valued at amortized cost, which with accrued interest approximates fair value. Money market fund investments are valued at net

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited) (continued)

	asset value and are categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. The Pricing Committee of Van Eck Associates Corporation (the “Adviser”) provides oversight of the Funds’ valuation policies and procedures, which are approved by the Funds’ Board of Trustees. Among other things, these procedures allow the Funds to utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities dealers, and other market sources to determine fair value. The Pricing Committee convenes regularly to review the fair value of financial instruments or other assets. If market quotations for a security or other asset are not readily available, or if the Adviser believes they do not otherwise reflect the fair value of a security or asset, the security or asset will be fair valued by the Pricing Committee in accordance with the Funds’ valuation policies and procedures. The Pricing Committee employs various methods for calibrating the valuation approaches utilized to determine fair value, including a regular review of key inputs and assumptions, periodic comparisons to valuations provided by other independent pricing services, transactional back-testing and disposition analysis.

	Certain factors such as economic conditions, political events, market trends, the nature of and duration of any restrictions on disposition, trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable issuers and other security specific information are used to determine the fair value of these securities. Depending on the relative significance of valuation inputs, these securities may be categorized either as Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The price which the Funds may realize upon sale of an investment may differ materially from the value presented in the Schedules of Investments.

	The Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of their investments on a recurring basis, which includes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

	Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

	Level 2 — Significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

	Level 3 — Significant unobservable inputs (including each Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

	A summary of the inputs and the levels used to value the Funds’ investments are located in the Schedules of Investments. Additionally, tables that reconcile the valuation of the Funds’ Level 3 investments and that present additional information about valuation methodologies and unobservable inputs, if applicable, are located in the Schedules of Investments.

B.	Basis for Consolidation— The Subsidiary, an Indian exempted company, was incorporated on February 25, 2010 and acts as an investment vehicle for the India Growth Leaders ETF (the “Fund”) in order to effect certain investments on behalf of the Fund. The Fund is the sole shareholder of the Subsidiary, and it is intended that the Fund will remain the sole shareholder and will continue to control the Subsidiary. The consolidated financial statements of the Fund include the financial results of its wholly owned subsidiary. All interfund account balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

C.	Federal Income Taxes—It is each Fund’s policy to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its net investment income to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

D.	Distributions to Shareholders— Dividends to shareholders from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and paid annually by each Fund. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with U.S. income tax regulations, which may differ from such amounts determined in accordance with GAAP.

E.	Currency Translation— Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies and commitments under foreign currency contracts are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing prices of such currencies each business day as quoted by one or more sources. Purchases and sales of investments are translated at the exchange rates prevailing when such investments are acquired or sold. Foreign denominated income and expenses are translated at the exchange rates prevailing when accrued. The portion of realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments that result from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed in the financial statements. Such amounts are included with the net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investment securities in the Statements of Operations. Recognized gains or losses attributable to foreign currency fluctuations on foreign currency denominated assets, other than investments, and liabilities are recorded as net realized gain (loss) and net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency transactions and foreign denominated assets and liabilities in the Statements of Operations.

F.	Restricted Securities—The Funds may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities, if any, is included at the end of each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

G.	Offsetting Assets and Liabilities— In the ordinary course of business, the Funds enter into transactions subject to enforceable master netting or other similar agreements. Generally, the right of offset in those agreements allows the Funds to offset any exposure to a specific counterparty with any collateral received or delivered to that counterparty based on the terms of the agreements. The Funds may pledge or receive cash and or securities as collateral for securities lending. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds present securities lending assets and liabilities on a gross basis in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Cash collateral received for securities lending in the form of money market fund investments, if any, at June 30, 2021 is presented in the Schedules of Investments and in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Non-cash collateral is disclosed in Note 9 (Securities Lending).

H.	Other— Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Realized gains and losses are determined based on the specific identification method. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date except that certain dividends from foreign securities are recognized upon notification of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including amortization of premiums and discounts, is accrued as earned.

	The Funds earn interest income on uninvested cash balances held at the custodian bank. Such amounts, if any, are presented as interest income in the Statements of Operations.

	The character of distributions received from certain investments may be comprised of net investment income, capital gains, and return of capital. It is the Funds’ policy to estimate the character of distributions received from these investments based on historical data if actual amounts are not available. After each calendar year end, these investments report the actual tax character of these distributions. Differences between the estimated and actual amounts are reflected in the Funds’ records in the year in which they are reported by adjusting the related cost basis of investments, capital gains and income, as necessary.

	In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these agreements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, the Adviser believes the risk of loss under these arrangements to be remote.

	At June 30, 2021, ChinaAMC SME-ChiNext included $36,504 in cash, at value on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, which represents foreign investor minimum settlement reserve funds required by China Securities Depository and Clearing Corporation Limited.

management fees and assume expenses to prevent each Fund’s total annual operating expenses (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, interest expense, trading expenses, taxes and extraordinary expenses; and for Russia ETF and Russia Small-Cap ETF, depositary receipt fees up to 0.10% and 0.08% of average daily net assets, respectively) from exceeding the expense limitations listed in the table below. Effective January 10, 2019, China Growth Leaders ETF and ChinaAMC SME-ChiNext ETF no longer exclude interest expense from their expense limitations. Refer to the Statements of Operations for the amounts waived/assumed by the Adviser for the period ended June 30, 2021.

The expense limitations and management fee rates for the period ended June 30, 2021, are as follows:

	Expense			Management
Fund	Limitations			Fees
Africa Index ETF		0.78	%		0.50	%
Brazil Small-Cap ETF		0.59			0.50
China Growth Leaders ETF		0.60			0.50
ChinaAMC SME-ChiNext ETF		0.65			0.50

Russia ETF		0.62			0.50
Russia Small-Cap ETF		0.67			0.50
Vietnam ETF		0.76			0.50

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Adviser reimbursed the Brazil Small-Cap ETF $372,975 for an investment loss. The per share and total return impact to the Fund is reflected in the Financial Highlights.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Adviser reimbursed the China Growth Leaders ETF and ChinaAMC SME-ChiNext ETF $57,732 and $17,518, respectively, for transactional losses. These reimbursements are reflected in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets as a net increase from payment from Adviser. The per share and total return impacts to the Funds are reflected in the Financial Highlights.

In addition, Van Eck Securities Corporation (the “Distributor”), an affiliate of the Adviser, acts as the Funds’ distributor. Certain officers and a Trustee of the Trust are officers, directors or stockholders of the Adviser and Distributor.

Note 4—Capital Share Transactions—As of June 30, 2021, there were an unlimited number of capital shares of beneficial interest authorized by the Trust with no par value. Fund shares are not individually redeemable and are issued and redeemed at their net asset value per share only through certain authorized broker-dealers (“Authorized Participants”) in blocks of shares (“Creation Units”).

The consideration for the purchase or redemption of Creation Units of the Funds generally consists of the in-kind contribution or distribution of securities constituting the Funds’ underlying index (“Deposit Securities”) plus a balancing cash component to equate the transaction to the net asset value per share of the Fund on the transaction date. Cash may also be substituted in an amount equivalent to the value of certain Deposit Securities, generally as a result of market circumstances, or when the securities are not available in sufficient quantity for delivery, or are not eligible for trading by the Authorized Participant. The Funds may issue Creation Units in advance of receipt of Deposit Securities subject to various conditions, including, for the benefit of the Funds, a requirement to maintain cash collateral on deposit at the custodian equal to at least 115% of the daily marked to market value of the missing Deposit Securities.

Authorized Participants purchasing and redeeming Creation Units may pay transaction fees directly to the transfer agent. In addition, the Funds may impose variable fees on the purchase or redemption of Creation Units for cash, or on transactions effected outside the clearing process, to defray certain transaction costs. These variable fees, if any, are reflected in share transactions in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.

Note 5—Investments—For the period ended June 30, 2021, purchases and sales of investments (excluding short-term investments and in-kind capital share transactions) and the purchases and sales of investments resulting from in-kind capital share transactions (excluding short-term investments) were as follows:

							In-Kind Capital Share Transactions

At December 31, 2020, the Funds had capital loss carryforwards available to offset future capital gains, as follows:

The Funds recognize the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained assuming examination by applicable tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions, and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on return filings for all open tax years. The Funds do not have exposure for additional years that might still be open in certain foreign jurisdictions. Therefore, no provision for income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements. However, the Funds are subject to foreign taxes

VANECK VECTORS ETF TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited) (continued)

on the appreciation in value of certain investments. The Funds provide for such taxes on both realized and unrealized appreciation.

The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the period ended June 30, 2021, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

Investments in China: Uncertainties in the Chinese tax rules governing taxation of income and gains from investments in A-Shares could result in unexpected tax liabilities for the China Growth Leaders ETF and ChinaAMC SME-ChiNext ETF (the "Funds"). China generally imposes withholding income tax (“WHT”) at a rate of 10% on dividends derived by non-PRC resident enterprises (including a Qualified Foreign Institutional Investor (“QFII”) and a Renminbi Qualified Foreign Institutional Investor (“RQFII”)) from issuers resident in China. China imposes WHT at a rate of 10% on capital gains derived by non-PRC resident enterprises from the disposal in shares of PRC enterprises. Effective November 17, 2014, investments through the Hong Kong- Shanghai Stock Connect program, QFIIs and RQFIIs, which includes these Funds, were exempted temporarily from WHT with respect to gains derived from the trading of equity investments (including A-shares). However, uncertainties remain regarding the taxation of capital gains in China. PRC rules for taxation of RQFIIs (and QFIIs) and the PRC tax regulations to be issued by the PRC State Administration of Taxation and/or PRC MOF to clarify the subject matter may apply retrospectively, even if such rules are adverse to the nonresident investors. If the PRC tax authorities were to issue differing formal guidance or tax rules regarding the taxation of capital gains derived by QFIIs, RQFIIs and other nonresident investors WHT on gains from such investments the Funds could be subject to additional tax liabilities.

Investments in India: As a result of renegotiation of the India Mauritius Tax treaty, India commenced taxation on capital gains arising from disposition of shares acquired on or after April 1, 2017 in a company resident in India, with shares acquired on or before March 31, 2017 being grandfathered as exempt from capital gains taxation subject to treaty relief. India currently assesses a capital gains tax on shares sold on the exchange of 15% on short term capital gains and 10% on long term capital gains (plus applicable surcharge and cess). Further, long-term capital gains on certain shares that were held as of January 31, 2018, may be eligible for a step up in cost basis which may reduce realized taxable gains. Existing Indian capital loss carryforwards may be utilized to offset capital gains realized on securities sold.

Note 7—Principal Risks—Non-diversified funds generally hold securities of fewer issuers than diversified funds (See Note 1) and may be more susceptible to the risks associated with these particular issuers, or to a single economic, political or regulatory occurrence affecting these issuers. The Funds may purchase securities on foreign exchanges. Securities of foreign issuers involve special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in U.S. issuers. These risks include devaluation of currencies, currency controls, less reliable information about issuers, different securities transaction clearance and settlement practices, future adverse economic developments and political conflicts, or natural or other disasters, such as the recent coronavirus outbreak. Additionally, certain Funds may invest in securities of emerging market issuers, which are exposed to a number of risks that may make these investments volatile in price or difficult to trade. Political risks may include unstable governments, nationalization, restrictions on foreign ownership, laws that prevent investors from getting their money out of a country, sanctions and investment restrictions and legal systems that do not protect property risks as well as the laws of the United States. These and other factors can make emerging market securities more volatile and potentially less liquid than securities issued in more developed markets. Certain securities of Chinese issuers are, or may in the future become restricted, and the Funds may be forced to sell such restricted securities and incur a loss as a result.

Should the Chinese government impose restrictions on the ability of China Growth Leaders ETF and ChinaAMC SME-ChiNext ETF to repatriate funds associated with direct investment in A-Shares, the Funds may be unable to satisfy distribution requirements applicable to regulated investment companies (“RICs”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Funds may therefore be subject to Fund-level U.S. federal taxes.

The respiratory disease caused by a novel coronavirus, which has spread internationally and declared as a pandemic by the World Health Organization, has resulted in closing borders, quarantines, disruptions to supply chains and customer activity, loss of life, as well as general concern and uncertainty. The coronavirus has already negatively impacted the economies of many nations, individual companies, and the market. This pandemic is expected to have a continued impact in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen presently.

A more complete description of risks is included in each Fund’s Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information.

Note 8—Trustee Deferred Compensation Plan—The Trust has a Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) for Trustees under which the Trustees can elect to defer receipt of their trustee fees until retirement, disability or termination from the Board of Trustees. The fees otherwise payable to the participating Trustees are deemed invested in shares of the Funds of the Trust as directed by the Trustees.

The expense for the Plan is included in “Trustees’ fees and expenses” in the Statements of Operations. The liability for the Plan is shown as “Deferred Trustee fees” in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Note 9—Securities Lending—To generate additional income, each of the Funds may lend its securities pursuant to a securities lending agreement with the securities lending agent. Each Fund may lend up to 33% of its investments requiring that the loan be continuously collateralized by cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities, or any combination of cash and such securities at all times equal to at least 102% (105% for foreign securities) of the market value of securities loaned. Daily market fluctuations could cause the value of loaned securities to be more or less than the value of the collateral received. When this occurs, the collateral is adjusted and settled on the next business day. During the term of the loan, the Funds will continue to receive any dividends, interest or amounts equivalent thereto, on the securities loaned while receiving a fee from the borrower and or earning interest on the investment of the cash collateral. Such fees and interest are shared with the securities lending agent under the terms of the securities lending agreement. Securities lending income is disclosed as such in the Statements of Operations. Cash collateral is maintained on the Funds’ behalf by the lending agent and is invested in the State Street Navigator Securities Lending Government Money Market Portfolio. Non-cash collateral consists of U.S. Treasuries and U.S. Government Agency securities, and is not disclosed in the Funds’ Schedules of Investments or Statements of Assets and Liabilities as it is held by the agent on behalf of the Funds. The Funds do not have the ability to re-hypothecate those securities. Loans are subject to termination at the option of the borrower or the Funds. Upon termination of the loan, the borrower will return to the Fund securities identical to the securities loaned. The Funds bear the risk of delay in recovery of, or even loss of rights in, the securities loaned should the borrower of the securities fail financially. The value of loaned securities and related cash collateral, if any, at June 30, 2021 is presented on a gross basis in the Schedules of Investments and Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The following is a summary of the Funds’ securities on loan and related collateral as of June 30, 2021:

APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENTS

June 30, 2021 (unaudited)

At a meeting held on June 17, 2021 (the “Renewal Meeting”), the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of VanEck Vectors^®ETF Trust (the “Trust”), including all of the Trustees that are not interested persons of the Trust (the “Independent Trustees”), approved the continuation of (i) the investment management agreements between the Trust and Van Eck Associates Corporation (the “Adviser”) (the “Investment Management Agreements”) with respect to the VanEck Vectors Africa Index ETF, Agribusiness ETF, Brazil Small-Cap ETF, China Growth Leaders ETF, ChinaAMC SME-ChiNext ETF, Egypt Index ETF, Gold Miners ETF, India Growth Leaders ETF, Indonesia Index ETF, Israel ETF, Junior Gold Miners ETF, Low Carbon Energy ETF, Natural Resources ETF, Oil Refiners ETF, Oil Services ETF, Rare Earth/Strategic Metals ETF, Russia ETF, Russia Small-Cap ETF, Steel ETF, Unconventional Oil & Gas ETF, Uranium+Nuclear Energy ETF and Vietnam ETF (each, a “Fund” and together, the “Funds”) and (ii) a sub-advisory agreement between the Adviser and China Asset Management (Hong Kong) Limited (the “Sub-Adviser”) (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”) with respect to each of VanEck Vectors China Growth Leaders ETF and ChinaAMC SME-ChiNext ETF (together, the “China Funds”). The Investment Management Agreements and the Sub-Advisory Agreement are collectively referred to as the “Agreements.”

The Board’s approval of the Agreements was based on a comprehensive consideration of all of the information available to the Trustees and was not the result of any single factor. Some of the factors that figured particularly in the Trustees’ deliberations and how the Trustees considered those factors are described below, although individual Trustees may have evaluated the information presented differently, giving different weights to various factors.

In preparation for the Renewal Meeting, the Trustees held a meeting on May 7, 2021. At that meeting, the Trustees discussed the information the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser (with respect to the China Funds) and Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”), an independent third party data provider, had provided to them in advance. The information provided to the Trustees included, among other things, information about the performance and expenses of the Funds and the Funds’ peer funds (certain other index-based exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”)), information about the advisory services provided to the Funds and the personnel providing those services, and the profitability and other benefits enjoyed by the Adviser and its affiliates as a result of the Adviser’s relationship with the Funds. In reviewing performance information for the Funds against their peer groups, the Trustees considered that each Fund seeks to track a different index than the funds in its designated peer group and, therefore, each Fund’s performance will differ from its peers. In addition, as noted below, the Trustees reviewed certain performance information for each Fund which was not provided by Broadridge and which did not compare each Fund’s performance to the performance of its peer group. For these and other reasons, the Trustees noted that the peer group performance information did not necessarily provide meaningful direct comparisons to the Funds.

The Independent Trustees’ consideration of the Agreements was based, in part, on their review of information obtained through discussions with the Adviser at the Renewal Meeting and with the Adviser at the May 7, 2021 meeting regarding the management of the Funds and information obtained at other meetings of the Trustees and/or based on their review of the materials provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser (with respect to the China Funds), including the background and experience of the portfolio manager(s) and others involved in the management and administration of the Funds. The Trustees considered the terms of, and scope of services that the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser (with respect to the China Funds) provide under, the Agreements, including, where applicable, the Adviser’s commitment to waive certain fees and/or pay expenses of each of the Funds to the extent necessary to prevent the operating expenses of each of the Funds from exceeding agreed upon limits for a period of time. With respect to the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Trustees took into account the unique legal and operational aspects of the China Funds and the Sub-Adviser’s experience with respect to Renminbi Qualified Foreign Institutional Investors Scheme funds. The Trustees also noted that the Sub-Adviser is a wholly-owned subsidiary of China Asset Management Co., Ltd., one of China’s largest asset management companies measured by fund assets under management.

The Trustees concluded that the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser (with respect to the China Funds) and their personnel have the requisite expertise and skill to manage the Funds’ portfolios. In evaluating the performance of each Fund, the Trustees reviewed various performance metrics but relied principally on a

VANECK VECTORS ETF TRUST

APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENTS

June 30, 2021 (unaudited) (continued)

comparison of the “gross” performance of each Fund (i.e., measured without regard to the impact of fees and expenses) to the performance of its benchmark index, in each case incorporating any systematic fair value adjustments to the underlying securities. Based on the foregoing, the Trustees concluded that the investment performance of the Funds was satisfactory.

The Trustees also considered information relating to the financial condition of the Adviser and the Sub- Adviser (with respect to the China Funds) and the current status, as they understood it, of the Adviser’s and Sub-Adviser’s (with respect to the China Funds) compliance environment.

As noted above, the Trustees were also provided various data from Broadridge comparing the Funds’ expenses and performance to that of certain other ETFs. The Trustees noted that the information provided showed that each Fund had management fees (after the effect of any applicable fee waiver) below or equal to the average and median of its respective peer group of funds, except for each of VanEck Vectors Agribusiness ETF, Rare Earth/Strategic Metals ETF, Russia ETF and Vietnam ETF, which had management fees (after the effect of any applicable fee waiver) greater than the average and/or median of its respective peer group of funds. The Trustees also noted that the information provided showed that each Fund had a total expense ratio (after the effect of any applicable expense limitation) below or equal to the average and median of its respective peer group of funds, except for each of VanEck Vectors Africa Index ETF, Egypt Index ETF, India Growth Leaders ETF, Rare Earth/Strategic Metals ETF, Russia Small-Cap ETF and Unconventional Oil & Gas ETF, which had a total expense ratio (after the effect of any applicable expense limitation) greater than the average and/or median of its respective peer group of funds. With respect to these Funds, the Trustees reviewed the amount by which these Funds’ management fees and/or total expense ratios (after the effect of any applicable expense limitation) exceeded the average and/or median of their respective peer groups and information provided by the Adviser providing context for these comparisons. The Trustees concluded, in light of this information and the other information available to them, that the fees paid by the Funds were reasonable in light of the performance of the Funds and the quality of services received.

The Trustees also considered the benefits, other than the fees under the Investment Management Agreements, received by the Adviser from serving as adviser to the Funds and the fact that the Sub-Adviser had not identified any such monetary benefits.

The Trustees also considered information provided by the Adviser about the overall profitability of the Adviser and its profitability or loss in respect of each Fund. The Trustees reviewed each Fund’s asset size, expense ratio and expense cap and noted that the Investment Management Agreements do not include breakpoints in the advisory fee rates as asset levels in a Fund increase. The Trustees considered the volatility of the asset classes in which certain of the Funds invest, potential variability in the net assets of these Funds and the sustainability of any potential economies of scale which may exist given where fees are currently set. The Trustees also evaluated the extent to which management fees for the Funds effectively incorporate the benefits of economies of scale. The Trustees noted that the Adviser has capped expenses on each Fund since its inception, although the cap was not necessarily exceeded each year. Based on the foregoing and the other information available to them, the Trustees determined that the advisory fee rate for each Fund and the sub-advisory fee rates for the China Funds are reasonable and appropriate in relation to the current asset size of each Fund and the other factors discussed above and that the advisory fee rate for each Fund currently reflects an appropriate sharing with shareholders of any economies of scale which may exist. The Trustees also determined that the profits earned by the Adviser with respect to the Funds that were profitable to the Adviser were reasonable in light of the nature and quality of the services received by such Funds.

The Independent Trustees were advised by and met in executive session with their independent counsel at the Renewal Meeting and at their May 7, 2021 meeting as part of their consideration of the Agreements.

In voting to approve the continuation of the Agreements, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, concluded that the terms of each Agreement are reasonable and fair in light of the services to be performed, expenses to be incurred and such other matters as the Trustees considered relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment. The Trustees further concluded that, at the time of their considerations, each Agreement is in the best interest of each Fund and such Fund’s shareholders.

FUNDS’ LIQUIDITY RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

(unaudited)

In accordance with Rule 22e-4 (the “Liquidity Rule”) under the 1940 Act, the Funds have implemented a Liquidity Risk Management Program (the “Program”). The Program outlines certain techniques, tools and arrangements employed for the assessment and management of Fund liquidity risk, and the terms, contents and frequency of reporting of certain issues to the Board. Liquidity is managed taking account of the Funds’ investment strategy, liquidity profile, and, importantly, the fact that for most funds redemptions are settled primarily as in-kind redemptions. In this regard, certain of the Funds qualify as “In-Kind ETFs” under the Liquidity Rule because they meet redemptions through in-kind transfers of securities, positions and assets other than a de minimis amount of cash and publish their portfolio holdings daily. In-Kind ETFs are exempt from the Liquidity Rule’s classification and highly liquid investment minimum (“HLIM”) provisions, discussed below.

Under the Program and in accordance with the Liquidity Rule, each Fund’s liquidity risk is assessed at least annually taking into consideration certain factors enumerated in the Liquidity Rule, as applicable. The Liquidity Rule calls for considering certain such factors under both normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed market conditions.

With respect to each Fund that does not qualify under the Liquidity Rule as an “In-Kind ETF,” the Liquidity Rule and the Program require that each portfolio holding be classified into one of four liquidity classification categories. The Liquidity Rule requires that such classification determinations be made taking into account relevant market, trading and investment-specific considerations as well as market depth. The relevant Funds utilize data from a third-party vendor to assist with these determinations.

Funds that do not qualify as “In-Kind ETFs” are also required to determine and periodically review an HLIM – a minimum percentage of Fund net assets that are to be invested in Highly Liquid Investments that are assets – and adopt certain related procedures. A Highly Liquid Investment is defined as cash and any investment reasonably expected to be convertible to cash in current market conditions in three business days or less without the conversion to cash significantly changing the market value of the investment.

The Liquidity Rule provides an exemption from the HLIM requirements for Funds that “primarily” hold Highly Liquid Investments, as defined in the Program. For the period January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020 (the “Review Period”), the Funds that were not In-Kind ETFs qualified for an exemption and therefore have not determined an HLIM or adopted the related procedures.

The Board reviewed a report (“Report”) prepared by each Fund’s Adviser regarding the operation and effectiveness of the Program for the Review Period. The Report noted that, during the Review Period, the Funds maintained a high level of liquidity and primarily held assets that are defined under the Liquidity Rule as “Highly Liquid Investments.” The Report also noted significant market volatility occurring during a portion of the Review Period and the effectiveness of the Funds’ liquidity risk management during such time. Further information on liquidity risks applicable to the Fund can be found in the Fund’s prospectus.

This report is intended for the Funds’ shareholders. It may not be distributed to prospective investors unless it is preceded or accompanied by a VanEck Vectors ETF Trust (the “Trust”) prospectus and summary prospectus, which includes more complete information. Investing involves substantial risk and high volatility, including possible loss of principal. An investor should consider the investment objective, risks, charges and expenses of the Fund carefully before investing.

The Funds are investment companies and follow accounting and reporting requirements of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 946, Financial Services-Investment Companies.

The following summarizes the Funds’ significant accounting policies.

	financial instruments or other assets. If market quotations for a security or other asset are not readily available, or if the Adviser believes they do not otherwise reflect the fair value of a security or asset, the security or asset will be fair valued by the Pricing Committee in accordance with the Funds’ valuation policies and procedures. The Pricing Committee employs various methods for calibrating the valuation approaches utilized to determine fair value, including a regular review of key inputs and assumptions, periodic comparisons to valuations provided by other independent pricing services, transactional back-testing and disposition analysis.

	Certain factors such as economic conditions, political events, market trends, the nature of and duration of any restrictions on disposition, trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable issuers and other security specific information are used to determine the fair value of these securities. Depending on the relative significance of valuation inputs, these securities may be categorized either as Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The price which the Funds may realize upon sale of an investment may differ materially from the value presented in the Schedules of Investments.

	The Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of their investments on a recurring basis, which includes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

	Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

	Level 2 — Significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

	Level 3 — Significant unobservable inputs (including each Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

	A summary of the inputs and the levels used to value the Funds’ investments are located in the Schedules of Investments. Additionally, tables that reconcile the valuation of the Funds’ Level 3 investments and that present additional information about valuation methodologies and unobservable inputs, if applicable, are located in the Schedules of Investments.

B.	Federal Income Taxes—It is each Fund’s policy to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its net investment income to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

C.	Distributions to Shareholders— Dividends to shareholders from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and paid annually by each Fund. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with U.S. income tax regulations, which may differ from such amounts determined in accordance with GAAP.

D.	Currency Translation— Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies and commitments under foreign currency contracts are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing prices of such currencies each business day as quoted by one or more sources. Purchases and sales of investments are translated at the exchange rates prevailing when such investments are acquired or sold. Foreign denominated income and expenses are translated at the exchange rates prevailing when accrued. The portion of realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments that result from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed in the financial statements. Such amounts are included with the net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investment securities in the Statements of Operations. Recognized gains or losses attributable to foreign currency fluctuations on foreign currency denominated assets, other than investments, and liabilities are recorded as net realized gain (loss) and net change in

unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency transactions and foreign denominated assets and liabilities in the Statements of Operations.

E.	Restricted Securities—The Funds may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities, if any, is included at the end of each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

F.	Offsetting Assets and Liabilities— In the ordinary course of business, the Funds enter into transactions subject to enforceable master netting or other similar agreements. Generally, the right of offset in those agreements allows the Funds to offset any exposure to a specific counterparty with any collateral received or delivered to that counterparty based on the terms of the agreements. The Funds may receive cash and or securities as collateral for securities lending. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds present securities lending assets and liabilities on a gross basis in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Cash collateral received for securities lending in the form of money market fund investments, if any, at June 30, 2021 is presented in the Schedules of Investments and in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Non-cash collateral is disclosed in Note 9 (Securities Lending).

G.	Other— Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Realized gains and losses are determined based on the specific identification method. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date except that certain dividends from foreign securities are recognized upon notification of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including amortization of premiums and discounts, is accrued as earned.

	The Funds earn interest income on uninvested cash balances held at the custodian bank. Such amounts, if any, are presented as interest income in the Statements of Operations.

	In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these agreements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, the Adviser believes the risk of loss under these arrangements to be remote.

Note 3—Investment Management and Other Agreements—The Adviser is the investment adviser to the Funds. The Adviser receives a management fee, calculated daily and payable monthly based on an annual rate of each Fund’s average daily net assets. The Adviser has agreed, until at least May 1, 2022, to waive management fees and assume expenses to prevent each Fund’s total annual operating expenses (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, interest expense, trading expenses, and extraordinary expenses) from exceeding the expense limitations for the Funds listed in the table below.

The expense limitations and management fee rates for the period ended June 30, 2021, are as follows:

Fund	Expense Limitations			Management Fees
Agribusiness ETF		0.56	%		0.50	%
Gold Miners ETF		0.53			0.50

Refer to the Statements of Operations for amounts waived/assumed by the Adviser.

In addition, Van Eck Securities Corporation, an affiliate of the Adviser, acts as the Funds’ distributor (the “Distributor”). Certain officers and a Trustee of the Trust are officers, directors or stockholders of the Adviser and Distributor.

At June 30, 2021, the Adviser owned approximately 2,500 shares of Gold Miners ETF.

Note 7—Principal Risks— Non-diversified funds generally hold securities of fewer issuers than diversified funds (See Note 1) and may be more susceptible to the risks associated with these particular issuers, or to a single economic, political or regulatory occurrence affecting these issuers. The Funds may purchase securities on foreign exchanges. Securities of foreign issuers involve special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in U.S. issuers. These risks include devaluation of currencies, currency controls, less reliable information about issuers, different securities transaction clearance and settlement practices, future adverse economic developments and political conflicts, or natural or other disasters, such as the recent coronavirus outbreak. Additionally, certain Funds may invest in securities of emerging market issuers, which are exposed to a number of risks that may make these investments volatile in price or difficult to trade. Political risks may include unstable governments, nationalization, restrictions on foreign ownership, laws that prevent investors from getting their money out of a country, sanctions and investment restrictions and legal systems that do not protect property risks as well as the laws of the United States. These and other factors can make emerging market securities more volatile and potentially less liquid than securities issued in more developed markets. Certain securities of Chinese issuers are, or may in the future become restricted, and the Funds may be forced to sell such restricted securities and incur a loss as a result.

has already negatively impacted the economies of many nations, individual companies, and the market. This pandemic is expected to have a continued impact in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen presently.

The Trustees also considered information relating to the financial condition of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser (with respect to the China Funds) and the current status, as they understood it, of the Adviser’s and Sub-Adviser’s (with respect to the China Funds) compliance environment.

The Board’s approval of the Investment Management Agreement was based on a comprehensive consideration of all of the information available to the Trustees and was not the result of any single factor. Some of the factors that figured particularly in the Trustees’ deliberations and how the Trustees considered those factors are described below, although individual Trustees may have evaluated the information presented differently, giving different weights to various factors.

In preparation for the Renewal Meeting, the Trustees held a meeting on May 7, 2021. At that meeting, the Trustees received materials from the Adviser. The Independent Trustees’ consideration of the Investment Management Agreement was based, in part, on information obtained through discussions with the Adviser at the Renewal Meeting and with the Adviser at the May 7, 2021 meeting regarding the proposed management of the Fund and information obtained at other meetings of the Trustees and/or based on their review of the materials provided by the Adviser, including the background and experience of the portfolio managers and others proposed to be involved in the management and administration of the Fund. In evaluating the terms of the Investment Management Agreement at the Renewal Meeting and the May 7, 2021 meeting, the Trustees considered the terms and scope of services that the Adviser would provide under the Investment Management Agreement, including the Adviser’s commitment to waive certain fees and/or pay expenses of the Fund to the extent necessary to prevent the operating expenses of the Fund from exceeding an agreed upon limit for a period of at least one year following the effective date of the Fund’s registration statement. The Trustees concluded that the Adviser and its personnel have the requisite expertise and skill to manage the Fund’s portfolio.

The Trustees did not consider historical information about the cost of the services provided by the Adviser or the profitability of the Fund to the Adviser because the Fund has not yet commenced operations. The Trustees could not consider the historical performance or actual management fees or operating expenses of, or the quality of services previously provided to, the Fund by the Adviser, although they concluded that the nature, quality, and extent of the services to be provided by the Adviser were appropriate based on the Trustees’ knowledge of the Adviser and its personnel and the operations of the other series of the Trust.

In voting to approve the continuation of the Investment Management Agreement, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, concluded that the terms of the Investment Management Agreement are reasonable and fair in light of the services to be performed, expenses to be incurred and such other matters as the Trustees considered relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment. The Trustees further concluded that, at the time of their considerations, the Investment Management Agreement is in the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders.

APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENTS

June 30, 2021 (unaudited) (continued)

In advance of the Meeting, the Trustees received materials from the Adviser, including expense information for other funds. The Adviser provided the Trustees with information regarding, among other things, the various aspects of the Fund’s proposed investment program, fee arrangements and service provider arrangements. The Independent Trustees’ consideration of the Investment Management Agreement was based, in part, on their review of information obtained through discussions with the Adviser at the Meeting regarding the management of the Fund, information obtained at other meetings of the Trustees and/or based on their review of the materials provided by the Adviser, including the background and experience of the portfolio managers and others proposed to be involved in the management and administration of the Fund. The Trustees also considered the terms and scope of services that the Adviser would provide under the Investment Management Agreement, including the Adviser’s agreement to pay all of the direct expenses of the Fund (excluding the fee payment under the Investment Management Agreement, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest expense, offering costs, trading expenses, taxes and extraordinary expenses).

The Trustees considered the benefits, other than the fees under the Investment Management Agreement, that the Adviser would receive from serving as adviser to the Fund. The Trustees did not consider historical information about the cost of the services provided by the Adviser or the profitability of the Fund to the Adviser because the Fund had not yet commenced operations. In addition, because the Fund had not yet commenced operations, the Trustees could not consider the historical performance or actual management fees or operating expenses of, or the quality of services previously provided to, the Fund by the Adviser, although they concluded that the nature, quality, and extent of the services to be provided by the Adviser were appropriate based on the Trustees’ knowledge of the Adviser and its personnel and the operations of the other series of the Trust.

The Independent Trustees were advised by and met in executive session with their independent counsel at the Meeting as part of their consideration of the Investment Management Agreement.

In voting to approve the Investment Management Agreement, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, concluded that the terms of the Investment Management Agreement are reasonable and fair in light of the services to be performed, expenses to be incurred and such other matters as the Trustees considered relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment. The Trustees further concluded that the Investment Management Agreement is in the best interest of the Fund and the Fund’s shareholders.
