MARKET VECTORS ETF TRUST

 

Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to present this semi-annual report for the fixed income funds of the Market Vectors ETF Trust for the six months ended October 31, 2010.

Overall, the fixed income markets–both U.S. and international–generated solid absolute returns during the semi-annual period. Still, the markets were encumbered by volatility. As the semi-annual period began in May, a coordinated effort to stimulate the global economy was undertaken by the International Monetary Fund (the IMF), the European Central Bank (the ECB), the Bank of England and the U.S. Federal Reserve Board (the Fed). Their decisions were met with decidedly mixed results but did leave the U.S. fixed income market concerned about the possible dampening effect that reduced foreign demand would have upon efforts to revive the U.S. economy. Simultaneously, various U.S. data releases had already begun to shift investor sentiment from excitement about a recovering economy to disappointment that the pace of the recovery was not as robust as many had hoped. As investors lowered their expectations both for economic growth going forward and for the intensity of inflationary pressures–a classic flight to quality took hold and interest rates declined. Expectations that the Fed would soon be buying U.S. Treasuries as part of a second round of quantitative easing also kept yields well supported at low levels.

Against this broad backdrop, Van Eck Global enhanced the array of exchange-traded funds we offer our shareholders. During the semi-annual period, a new fixed income investment opportunity in the Market Vectors ETF family commenced operations—Market Vectors Emerging Markets Local Currency Bond ETF. Meanwhile, each of the five Municipal Bond Funds of the Markets Vectors ETF Trust continued to make headlines given the unique targeted investment opportunities they offer. What follows is a brief review of the segments of the fixed income market in which the fixed income funds of the Market Vectors ETF Trust invest.

Emerging Markets Local Currency Bond Market Review
The JPMorgan Government Bond Index–Emerging Markets Global Core Index1 (the “Index”) returned 9.25% during the period from July 22, 2010, the commencement date of the Market Vectors Emerging Markets Local Currency Bond ETF, through October 31, 2010 (the “reporting period”). The Index outperformed the U.S. fixed income market, the global developed markets bond market and the U.S. equity market, as measured by the 2.16%, 6.86% and 8.77% returns of the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index2, the Barclays Capital Global Government Bond Index3 and the S&P® 500 Index4, respectively, during the same time frame. The Index also outperformed its U.S.-dollar denominated counterpart, the JPMorgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Plus5, which returned 7.30% during the same period.

At a time of unprecedented sovereign debt burdens in the U.S., Japan, the U.K. and the rest of the developed world, the comparatively lower debt-to-GDP (Gross Domestic Product) emerging market nations were attractive to investors. Indeed, as the Fed and the ECB pumped liquidity into the monetary system, a good portion of that liquidity leaked its way into emerging markets debt rather than into domestic stocks or bonds as intended by the monetary policy. Investors in the developed world were also attracted to emerging market local currency debt during the reporting period because of the higher yields it offered compared to the near-zero interest rates of developed bond markets or even the approximately 3% yields on domestic investment grade corporate bonds. Further, when evaluating the risk-reward tradeoff of emerging markets local currency debt, investors took note that 80% of the countries in the Index had investment grade ratings from the major independent credit rating agencies.

Still, the risk of capital controls across emerging markets rose in the last months of the reporting period, as emerging market policy makers grew increasingly concerned about appreciation of their local currencies. As liquidity poured into emerging markets and currencies appreciated versus the U.S. dollar, local governments expressed concerns about their ability to manage domestic and economic policy. In an effort to protect the competitiveness of their export sectors, blunt currency volatility and generally avoid what it saw as “hot money,” or money that is moved from one investment vehicle to another in response to changes in interest rates, Brazil increased its tax on currency transactions from 2% to 4% and then to 6% by end of October. Thailand added a 15% tax on interest income earned by foreigners in a stated attempt to control foreign flows rather than to diminish it. Speculation regarding which country would take similar action next was high at the end of the Reporting period.

During the reporting period, Hungary, South Africa and Poland were the strongest performing markets in the Index. Most of Hungary’s return was attributable to the strong appreciation of its forint versus the U.S. dollar. Also, Hungary got its investment grade rating reaffirmed by Standard & Poor’s (S&P) after its newly elected government announced a budgetary package that calmed investors. S&P had earlier put Hungary’s credit rating on review for a possible downgrade in the aftermath of the global credit crisis and failed bailout talks between Hungary and the IMF. South Africa’s market achieved double-digit gains on the back of strength in its local bond market, appreciation of the rand, and results of infrastructure spending amidst a successful 2010 FIFA World Cup there. Poland was a top performer as the Polish zloty appreciated strongly versus the U.S. dollar. With a consensus GDP forecast of 3.5%, investors speculated that the National Bank of Poland would be the first central bank in emerging Europe to hike short-term interest rates. With near-zero interest rates in the U.S., interest rate parity suggested a rise in the zloty.

Egypt, Russia and Malaysia were the weakest markets in the Index but still generated flat to modestly positive returns during the Reporting period. Egyptian GDP grew 5.6% during the third quarter of 2010, but the market still faced headwinds from a weakening global economy. Russia’s bond market advanced slightly during the Reporting period, but the ruble depreciated. Malaysia’s weak return was due to both its bond market and its currency.

Chile and the Philippines were added to the Index during the reporting period.

Municipal Bond Market Review
The Barclays Capital Municipal Index6 (the “Index”) returned 3.95% during the six months ended October 31, 2010 (the “semi-annual period”). The high-yield municipal market was stronger, as indicated by the 6.71% return of the Barclays Capital High Yield Municipal Index7 during the same time period.

As the semi-annual period began, a “recalibration” of ratings for municipal bonds had just been launched by Moody’s and Fitch, two of the three major credit rating agencies, based upon the more broadly-recognized global criteria used for corporate debt. The effect of this change was higher credit quality ratings for most municipal bond issuers. However, as the semi-annual period progressed, the notion of “safety” and strong “creditworthiness” in the municipal bond market came under fire from a number of commentators, including Warren Buffett. That said, most current data available suggests that, on an annualized basis, municipal bond credit quality should hold up well. As evidence, some 194 municipal issues on $6.9 billion of bonds were in default status in 2009, whereas 2010 data shows there are expected to be less than 100 issuers falling into default status at a comparatively lesser market value of approximately $4 billion.

From the demand side, a record number of bonds maturing as well as paying their seasonal coupons in June and July contributed both to solid returns and to strong reinvestment activity. Further, near-zero yields offered by money market mutual funds served to entice investors to take on somewhat more interest rate risk and longer durations to achieve higher yields. Anticipation of higher marginal personal income tax rates on the state and local levels and the possibility that the Bush tax cuts on the top two federal tax brackets may expire also served to boost demand for tax-exempt bonds. Although cash flows into municipal bond funds were lower during the semi-annual period than the torrid pace of a year earlier, inflows of $500 to $600 million a week remained a strong underpinning for the municipal bond market.Another factor supporting the municipal bond market’s solid performance during the semi-annual period was the Build America Bond (BAB) program. It is estimated that approximately $130 billion of securities have come to market via this program since legislative enactment authorized them in the first quarter of 2009. These bonds are taxable, high quality and generally with long-term maturities. Although BABs have opened up municipal bond investing to a whole new category of investors, it also has had the effect of taking supply away from the long-term end of the traditional tax-exempt municipal bond market, as issuers have found it more cost efficient to raise capital through these taxable bonds. Therefore, whatever reticence there might have been from municipal bond buyers, who may have pushed prices lower over concerns for credit, economic sluggishness or news coverage of municipalities’ budgetary shortfalls, was clearly offset during the semi-annual period by the BAB phenomenon. (While the BAB program supported the performance of the municipal bond market in general, it should be noted that none of the municipal bond funds of the Market Vectors ETF Trust held any BABs during the semi-annual period.)

Forced lower by the aggressive stance of the Fed to hold rates down for the foreseeable future, lower rates across the tax-exempt bond yield curve, or spectrum of maturities, had the impact of driving investors to look for yield in intermediate- and longer-term municipal bonds. High yield municipal bonds, a reluctant participant during the spring of 2010, contributed strong returns as the semi-annual period progressed as more investors determined that a bottom had been reached in the economy and that a turn toward recovery would boost returns of both taxable and tax-exempt high yield bonds.

Perhaps the best observation to be made is that both emerging market local currency bond and municipal bond ETFs ended the semi-annual period with their appeal intact as a favorable investment alternative for a wide range of investors. They offered diversification, intraday access and competitive yields. All of these remain key benefits for investors, whatever the current market conditions. Indeed, during the semi-annual period ended October 31, 2010 alone, total assets under management in the six fixed income funds of the Market Vectors ETF Trust grew nearly 55% to more than $774 million.

On the following pages, you will find the performance record of each of the six fixed income funds of the Market Vectors ETF Trust for the period ended October 31, 2010. You will, of course, also find their financial statements and portfolio information.

I want to thank you for your participation in the Market Vectors ETF Trust. Please contact us at 1.888.MKT.VCTR or visit vaneck.com/etf if you have any questions. We value your ongoing confidence in us and look forward to helping you meet your investment goals in the future.

Investments in emerging market securities are subject to elevated risks which include, among others, expropriation, confiscatory taxation, issues with repatriation of investment income, limitations of foreign ownership, political instability, armed conflict and social instability. As the Fund may invest in securities denominated in foreign currencies and some of the income received by the Fund will be in foreign currency, changes in currency exchange rates may negatively impact the Fund’s return. Bonds and bond funds will decrease in value as interest rates rise. The Fund may also be subject to credit risk, interest rate risk, sovereign debt risk, tax risk, and risks associated with non-investment grade securities. Investors should be willing to accept a high degree of volatility and the potential of significant loss.

Municipal bonds are subject to risks related to litigation, legislation, political change, conditions in underlying sectors or in local business communities and economies, bankruptcy or other changes in the issuer’s financial condition, and/or the discontinuance of taxes supporting the project or assets or the inability to collect revenues for the project or from the assets. Bonds and bond funds will decrease in value as interest rates rise. Additional risks include credit, interest rate, call, reinvestment, tax, market and lease obligation risk. High-yield municipal bonds are subject to greater risk of loss of income and principal than higher-rated securities, and are likely to be more sensitive to adverse economic changes or individual municipal developments than those of higher-rated securities. Interest and principal payments for pre-refunded bonds are funded from securities in an escrow account. The escrowed securities do not guarantee the price of these bonds. Municipal bonds may be less liquid than taxable bonds. There is no guarantee that the Fund’s income will be

exempt from federal or state income taxes, and changes in those tax rates or in alternative minimum tax rates or in the tax treatment of municipal bonds may make them less attractive as investments and cause them to lose value. Capital gains, if any, are subject to capital gains tax.

Fund shares are not individually redeemable and will be issued and redeemed at their NAV only through certain authorized broker-dealers in large, specified blocks of shares called “creation units” and otherwise can be bought and sold only through exchange trading. Creation units are issued and redeemed principally in kind. Shares may trade at a premium or discount to their NAV in the secondary market.

Index returns assume the reinvestment of all income and do not reflect any management fees or brokerage expenses associated with Fund returns. Returns for actual Fund investors may differ from what is shown because of differences in timing, the amount invested and fees and expenses. Investors cannot invest directly in an Index.

Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses 0.24%
The Investment Management Agreement between Market Vectors ETF Trust (the “Trust”) and Van Eck Associates Corporation (the “Adviser”) provides that the Adviser will pay all expenses of the Fund, except for the fee payment under the Investment Management Agreement, interest expense, offering costs, trading expenses, taxes and extraordinary expenses.

The price used to calculate market return (SHARE PRICE) is determined by using the closing price listed on the NYSE Arca. Since the shares of the Fund did not trade in the secondary market until several days after the Fund’s commencement, for the period from commencement (2/2/09) to the first day of secondary market trading in shares of the Fund (2/3/09), the NAV of the Fund is used as a proxy for the secondary market trading price to calculate market returns.

Fund shares are not individually redeemable and will be issued and redeemed at their NAV only through certain authorized broker-dealers in large, specified blocks of shares called “creation units” and otherwise can be bought and sold only through exchange trading. Creation units are issued and redeemed principally in kind. Shares may trade at a premium or discount to their NAV in the secondary market.

The performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Investment return and value of the shares of the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance may be lower or higher than performance data quoted. Performance current to the most recent month-end is available by calling 1.888.MKT.VCTR or by visiting vaneck.com/etf. These returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund dividends and distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

1Barclays Capital AMT-Free Short Continuous Municipal Index
To be included in the index, bonds must be rated investment-grade (Baa3/BBB- or higher) by at least two of the following ratings agencies: Moody’s, S&P, Fitch. If only two of the three agencies rate the security, the lower rating is used to determine index eligibility. If only one of the three agencies rates a security, the rating must be investment-grade. They must have an outstanding par value of at least $7 million and be issued as part of a transaction of at least $75 million. The bonds must be fixed rate, have a dated-date within the last five years, and must be at least one year but less than six years from their maturity date. Remarketed issues, taxable municipal bonds, AMT municipal bonds, bonds with floating rates, and derivatives, are excluded from the benchmark. Barclays Capital does not sponsor, endorse, or promote the Fund and bears no liability with respect to any such Fund or security.

Gross Expense Ratio 0.60% / Net Expense Ratio 0.49%
The Adviser has agreed to waive fees and/or pay Fund expenses to the extent necessary to prevent the operating expenses of the Fund (excluding interest expense, offering costs, trading expenses, taxes and extraordinary expenses) from exceeding 0.49% of Fund’s average daily net assets per year at least until September 1, 2011. During such time, the expense limitation is expected to continue until the Fund’s Board of Trustees acts to discontinue all or a portion of such expense limitation.

The price used to calculate market return (SHARE PRICE) is determined by using the closing price listed on the NYSE Arca. Since the shares of the Fund did not trade in the secondary market until several days after the Fund’s commencement, for the period from commencement (7/22/10) to the first day of secondary market trading in shares of the Fund (7/23/10), the NAV of the Fund is used as a proxy for the secondary market trading price to calculate market returns.

Fund shares are not individually redeemable and will be issued and redeemed at their NAV only through certain authorized broker-dealers in large, specified blocks of shares called “creation units” and otherwise can be bought and sold only through exchange trading. Creation units are issued and redeemed principally in kind. Shares may trade at a premium or discount to their NAV in the secondary market.

The performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Performance information for the Fund reflects temporary waivers of expenses and/or fees. Had the Fund incurred all expenses, investment returns would have been reduced. Investment return and value of the shares of the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance may be lower or higher than performance data quoted. Performance current to the most recent month-end is available by calling 1.888.MKT.VCTR or by visiting vaneck.com/etf. These returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund dividends and distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

Countries are eligible for inclusion in the Index as long as they are classified as having a low or middle per capita income by the World Bank for at least two consecutive years. The maximum weight to a country in the Index is capped at 10%, the minimum is 3%.

MARKET VECTORS ETF TRUST

 

EXPLANATION OF EXPENSES

(unaudited)

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, May 1, 2010 to October 31, 2010.

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 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 the 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 fees on purchase payments. 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

October 31, 2010 (unaudited)

Note 1—Fund Organization—Market 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 as of October 31, 2010, offers twenty eight investment portfolios, each of which represents a separate series of the Trust.

These financial statements relate only to the following investment portfolios: High-Yield Municipal Index ETF (“High-Yield”), Intermediate Municipal Index ETF (“Intermediate”), Long Municipal Index ETF (“Long”), Pre-Refunded Municipal Index ETF (“Pre-Refunded”), Short Municipal Index ETF (“Short”), and Emerging Markets Local Currency Bond ETF (“Emerging Markets”), each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”. Each Fund’s investment objective is to replicate as closely as possible, before fees and expenses, the price and yield performance of its Index. The Funds expect to use a sampling approach in seeking to achieve their objectives. Sampling means that Van Eck Associates Corporation (the “Adviser”) uses quantitative analysis to select bonds and other securities that represent a sample of securities in the Index in terms of key risk factors, performance attributes and other characteristics. The number of securities in each Fund will be based upon several factors, including asset size of the Fund. The Adviser generally expects each Fund to hold less than the total number of securities in the Index, but reserves the right to hold as many securities as it believes necessary to achieve the Fund’s investment objective.

The Fund’s commencement of operations dates and their respective Indices are presented below:

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 following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds.

 

 

A.

Security Valuation–The investment valuation policy of the Funds is to value investments at fair value. Debt securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued on the basis of quotations furnished by an independent pricing service approved by the Board of Trustees or provided by securities dealers. The pricing services may use valuation models or matrix pricing, which consider: (i) yield or price with respect to bonds that are considered comparable in characteristics such as rating, interest rate and maturity date or (ii) quotations from bond dealers to determine current value. Over-the-counter securities for which no sale was reported are valued at the mean of the bid and ask prices. Securities for which market values are not readily available, or whose values have been affected by events occurring before the Funds’ pricing time (4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) but after the close of the securities’ primary market, are valued using methods approved by the Board of Trustees. The Funds may also fair value securities in other situations, for example, when a particular foreign market is closed but the Fund is open. The price which the Funds may realize upon sale of an investment may differ materially from the value presented on the Schedules of Investments. Money market fund investments are valued at net asset value. Short-term obligations purchased with more than sixty days remaining to maturity are valued at market value. Short-term obligations purchased with sixty days or less to maturity are valued at amortized cost, which with accrued interest approximates fair value. Securities for which quotations are not available are stated at fair value as determined by a Pricing Committee of the Adviser appointed by the Board of Trustees. Certain factors such as economic conditions, political events, market trends and security specific information are used to determine the fair value for these securities.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(continued)


 

 

 

The Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of most of its investments on a recurring basis which includes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods used to measure fair value. The 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 the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value 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 taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

 

 

C.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders—Dividends to shareholders from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid at least monthly by each Fund. Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, generally are declared and paid annually. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with 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 forward foreign currency contracts are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing prices of such currencies each business day. Purchases and sales of foreign denominated 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. Recognized gains or losses attributable to foreign currency fluctuations on foreign currency denominated assets, other than investments, and liabilities are recorded as net realized gains and losses from foreign currency transactions.

 

 

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 is included at the end of each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

 

 

F.

Use of Derivative Instruments–The Funds may make investments in derivative instruments, including, but not limited to, options, futures, swaps and other derivatives relating to foreign currency transactions. A derivative is an instrument whose value is derived from underlying assets, indices, reference rates or a combination of these factors. Derivative instruments may be privately negotiated contracts (often referred to as over the counter (“OTC”) derivatives) or they may be listed and traded on an exchange. Derivative contracts may involve future commitments to purchase or sell financial instruments at specified terms on a specified date, or to exchange interest payment streams or currencies based on a notional or contractual amount. Derivative instruments may involve a high degree of financial risk. The use of derivatives also involves the risk of loss if the Adviser is incorrect in its expectation of the timing or level of fluctuations in securities prices, interest rates or currency prices. Investments in derivative instruments also include the risk of default by the counterparty, the risk that the investment may not be liquid and the risk that a small movement in the price of the underlying security or benchmark may result in a disproportionately large movement, unfavorable or favorable, in the price of the derivative instrument. GAAP requires enhanced disclosures about the Funds’ derivatives and hedging activities. Details of this disclosure are as follows: The impact of transactions in derivative instruments, during the period ended October 31, 2010, were as follows:

Forward Foreign Currency Contracts–The Funds are subject to foreign currency risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Funds may buy and sell forward foreign currency contracts to settle purchases and sales of foreign denominated securities to obtain currency exposure, or to hedge foreign denominated assets. Realized gains and losses from forward foreign currency contracts are included in realized gain (loss) on forward foreign currency contracts and foreign currency transactions. The Funds may incur additional risk from investments in forward foreign currency contracts if the counterparty is unable to fulfill its obligation or there are unanticipated movements of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. The Funds did not have any open forward foreign currency contracts as of October 31, 2010.

 

 

G.

Other–Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Transactions in certain securities may take longer than the customary settlement cycle to be completed. The counterparty is required to collateralize such trades with cash in excess of the market value of the transaction, which is held at the custodian and marked to market daily. Realized gains and losses are calculated on the identified cost basis. Interest income, including amortization of premiums and discounts, is accrued as earned.

 

 

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 management fee rate for Emerging Markets is 0.35% and the Adviser has agreed, at least until September 1, 2011, to voluntarily waive or limit its fees and to assume as its own expense certain expenses otherwise payable so that its total annual operating expenses, excluding interest expense, does not exceed 0.49%. Effective September 1, 2010, High Yield, Intermediate, Long, Pre-Refunded and Short Funds adopted a unitary management fee where the Adviser is responsible for all expenses of the Funds, except the fee payment under the Investment Advisory Agreement, interest expenses, offering costs, trading expenses, taxes and extraordinary expenses. Prior to September 1, 2010, these Funds were responsible for their own operating expenses, including management fees. The management fee rate for these Funds was 0.25%, except for High Yield which had a rate of 0.50%. The Adviser voluntarily waived its fees and assumed certain fund expenses during this period to limit total annual operating expenses to the expense caps listed below.

 

The current unitary management fee/expense caps and the amounts waived/assumed by the Adviser for the period ended October 31, 2010 are 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 returns filed for open tax years (tax years ended April 30, 2008, 2009 and 2010), or expected to be taken in the Funds’ current tax year. Therefore, no provision for income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements.

Note 6—Capital Share Transactions—As of October 31, 2010, there were an unlimited number of capital shares of beneficial interest authorized by the Trust with no par value. Shares are issued and redeemed by the Funds only in Creation Units, consisting of 100,000 shares, except for Emerging Markets which has Creation Units consisting of 200,000 shares, or multiples thereof. 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 plus a small amount of cash. For the period ended October 31, 2010 the Trust had in-kind contributions as follows:

Note 7–Concentration and Other Risks–The investment objective of each Fund is to seek investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of its underlying index, as indicated in the name of each Fund. The Adviser uses a “passive” or index approach to achieve each Fund’s investment objective. The Funds use a sampling approach in which the Adviser uses quantitative analysis to select bonds that represent a sample of securities in the index in terms of key risk factors, performance attributes and other characteristics. Each Fund is classified as a non-diversified fund under the 1940 Act. Non-diversified funds generally hold securities of fewer issuers than diversified funds 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. Investments in municipal securities involve risks similar to those of investing in any fund of fixed income securities traded on exchanges, such as market fluctuations caused by factors such as economic and political developments, changes in interest rates and perceived trends in security prices.

High-Yield invests in non-investment grade securities, often referred to as “junk bonds.” Economic downturns may disrupt the high yield market and impair the ability of issuers to repay principal and interest. These high yield securities may involve greater risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in U.S. government bonds and other high quality fixed-income securities. Also, an increase in interest rates would likely have an adverse impact on the value of such obligations. Moreover, high yield securities may be less liquid due to the extent that there is no established retail secondary market and because of a decline in the value of such securities. High-Yield may not be able to sell bonds at desired prices

62



 

 

and that large purchases or sales of certain high-yield bond issues may cause substantial fluctuations in share price, yield and total return.

Emerging Markets invests in foreign securities. Investments in foreign securities may involve a greater degree of risk than investments in domestic securities due to political, economic or social instability. Foreign investments may also be subject to foreign taxes and settlement delays. Since Emerging Markets may have significant investments in foreign debt securities, it may be subject to greater credit and interest risks and greater currency fluctuations than portfolios with significant investments in domestic debt securities.

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 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 as directed by the Trustees.

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

Note 9—Stock Split—On October 10, 2008, the Board of Trustees of the Market Vectors ETF Trust approved a split of the shares for Intermediate, Long, and Short. The stock splits took place for shareholders of record as of the close of business on October 21, 2008, and were payable on October 23, 2008. Fund shares began trading on a split-adjusted basis on October 24, 2008. Intermediate split its shares five-for-one, Long split its shares five-for-one, and Short split its shares three-for-one.

The splits lowered the share price of these Funds by increasing the number of shares outstanding, but did not change the total value of shares outstanding. The expected primary benefit of this action was that lower share prices will make these Funds more accessible to investors.

Note 10–Bank Line of Credit–The Funds may participate in a $20 million committed credit facility (“Facility”) to be utilized for temporary financing until the settlement of sales or purchases of portfolio securities, the repurchase or redemption of shares of the Funds at the request of the shareholders and other temporary or emergency purposes. The Funds have agreed to pay commitment fees, pro rata, based on the unused but available balance. Interest is charged to the Funds at rates based on prevailing market rates in effect at the time of borrowings. During the period ended October 31, 2010, there were no borrowings by the Funds under this Facility.

Note 11—Custodian Fees—The Funds have entered into an expense offset agreement with the custodian wherein they receive a credit toward the reduction of custodian fees whenever there are uninvested cash balances. The Funds could have invested their cash balances elsewhere if they had not agreed to a reduction in fees under the expense offset agreement with the custodian. For the period ended October 31, 2010, the Funds’ did not have any expense offsets to reduce custodian fees.

Note 12—Subsequent Events—The Funds have evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the financial statements were issued.

APPROVAL OF MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

For the Period Ended October 31, 2010 (unaudited)

At a meeting held on June 25, 2010 (the “Renewal Meeting”), the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, approved an amended and restated investment management agreement between the Trust and the Adviser (the “Municipal Investment Management Agreement”) with respect to the Market Vectors California Long Municipal Index ETF, High-Yield Municipal Index ETF, Intermediate Municipal Index ETF, Long Municipal Index ETF, Massachusetts Municipal Index ETF, New Jersey Municipal Index ETF, New York Long Municipal Index ETF, Ohio Municipal Index ETF, Pennsylvania Municipal Index ETF, Pre-Refunded Municipal Index ETF and Short Municipal Index ETF (the “Municipal Funds”) and the continuation of the investment management agreement between the Trust and the Adviser (the “Fixed Income Investment Management Agreement”) with respect to Market Vectors Emerging Markets Local Currency Bond ETF, Fixed Income I ETF, Fixed Income II ETF and Investment-Grade Floating-Rate Bond ETF (collectively, the “Fixed Income Funds” and together with the Municipal Funds, the “Funds”). The Municipal Investment Management Agreement and the Fixed Income Investment Management Agreement are collectively referred to as the “Investment Management Agreements.”

The Board’s approval of the Investment Management Agreements was based on a comprehensive consideration of all 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 met on June 9, 2010. At that meeting, the Trustees discussed the information the Adviser and Lipper Inc. (“Lipper”), 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, information about the advisory services provided to the Funds, including 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.

The Independent Trustees’ consideration of the Investment Management Agreements was also based on their review of information obtained through discussions with, among others, management of the Funds and the Adviser at the Renewal Meeting and the June 9, 2010 meeting, and information obtained at other meetings of the Trustees among themselves and/or with management, including the background and experience of the portfolio managers and others involved in the management and administration of the Trust.

In evaluating the terms of the Investment Management Agreement relating to the Municipal Funds and the proposal for those Funds to adopt a unitary fee structure, the Trustees considered representations from the Adviser that the services to be provided by the Adviser to the Municipal Funds would not decrease in scope or quality under a unitary fee structure arrangement. The Trustees also considered the risks being assumed by the Adviser under the unitary fee structure arrangement and the potential expense stability that may inure to the benefit of shareholders of the Municipal Funds.

The Trustees considered the terms of, and scope of services that the Adviser provides under, the Investment Management Agreements, including, with respect to the Fixed Income Funds, the Adviser’s commitment to waive certain fees and/or pay expenses of the Fixed Income Funds to the extent necessary to prevent the operating expenses of the Fixed Income Funds from exceeding agreed upon limits until at least September 1, 2011 and, with respect to the Municipal Funds, the Adviser’s agreement to pay all of the direct expenses of the Municipal Funds (excluding interest expense, offering costs, trading expenses, taxes and extraordinary expenses).

The Trustees concluded that the Adviser and its personnel have the requisite expertise and skill to manage the Funds’ portfolios, especially in light of the performance of those Funds that had commenced operations as of the date of the Renewal Meeting (the “Operating Funds”). In evaluating an Operating Fund’s performance, the Trustees assessed the Operating Funds’ performance based on how well the performance of an Operating Fund tracked the performance of its Underlying Index, using a variety of measurements in this regard, and concluded that the investment performance of the Funds was satisfactory.

The Trustees also considered information relating to the financial condition of the Adviser, the current status, as they understood it, of the Adviser’s compliance environment and the Adviser’s analysis of the Trust’s other service providers.

As noted above, the Trustees were also provided various data from Lipper comparing the Funds to other exchange-traded funds with respect to expenses, performance and tracking error. The Trustees noted that the information provided showed that one Fund had an expense ratio greater than the median of its peer group of funds. The Trustees noted, however, that the Fund had a relatively small asset base. The Trustees concluded, in light of this information and the other information

65



 

 

APPROVAL OF MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

(continued)

available to them, that the fees paid by the Funds were reasonable in light of the quality of services received. The Trustees noted, however, that this comparative data, while generally helpful, was limited in its usefulness in many cases due to the lack of a large number of directly comparable exchange-traded funds.

The Trustees also considered information they received regarding the other benefits received by the Adviser from serving as adviser to the Funds and from providing administrative services to the Funds, and from an affiliate of the Adviser serving as distributor for the Funds.

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 that had commenced operations. The Trustees reviewed the information provided by the Adviser as to the extent to which economies of scale are realized as each Fund grows and whether current fee levels reflect economies of scale for the benefit of shareholders. The Trustees reviewed each Fund’s asset size, expense ratio and expense cap, if applicable, and noted that neither of the Investment Management Agreements provides for breakpoints in the advisory fee rates as asset levels in a Fund increase. The Trustees noted that the Funds were still relatively new products, which therefore made it difficult to quantify the potential variability in net assets and thus determine the sustainability of any potential economies of scale which may exist. Based on the foregoing and the other information available to them, the Trustees determined that the advisory fee rate for each Fund is reasonable and appropriate in relation to the current asset size of each Fund and the other factors discussed above and currently reflects an appropriate sharing of any economies of scale which may exist with shareholders. The Trustees also determined that the profits earned by the Adviser in respect of 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 Trustees did not consider historical information about the profitability of Market Vectors California Long Municipal Index ETF, Emerging Markets Local Currency Bond ETF, Fixed Income I ETF, Fixed Income II ETF, Investment Grade Floating Rate Bond ETF, Massachusetts Municipal Index ETF, New Jersey Municipal Index ETF, New York Long Municipal Index ETF, Ohio Municipal Index ETF and Pennsylvania Municipal Index ETF to the Adviser because none of those Funds had commenced operations at the time of the Renewal Meeting. However, the Adviser agreed to provide the Trustees with profitability information in connection with future proposed continuances of the Investment Management Agreements relating to those Funds after those Funds had commenced operations. In addition, because none of those Funds had commenced operations, the Trustees were not in a position to consider the historical performance or the quality of services previously provided to each of those Funds 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 Renewal Meeting and at their June 9, 2010 meeting as part of their consideration of the Investment Management Agreements.

In voting to approve the continuation of the Municipal Investment Management Agreement and the Fixed Income Investment Management Agreement, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, concluded that the terms of each Investment Management Agreement are reasonable and fair in light of the services to be performed, the fees paid by certain other funds, 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 each Investment Management Agreement is in the interest of the Funds and each Fund’s shareholders.
