Fund profile

As filed in the prospectus · 2026 Q2

VanEck Uranium and Nuclear ETF (the Fund) seeks to replicate as closely as possible, before fees and expenses, the price and yield performance of the MVIS Global Uranium & Nuclear Energy Index (the Nuclear Energy Index or the Index).

Strategy · summarised

The fund uses a passive indexing approach to replicate the MVIS Global Uranium & Nuclear Energy Index, holding securities of companies that derive at least 50% of revenues from uranium mining, nuclear power construction and maintenance, nuclear electricity generation, or nuclear industry equipment and services, or have at least 50% of mineral resources in uranium. The fund is non-diversified and may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer. Because the fund tracks an index that concentrates in the energy, industrials, and utilities sectors, the fund's returns will reflect that sector concentration.
