Glenn Smith - National Sales Manager, (212) 293-2074, gsmith@vaneck.comFounded in 1955 by John C. van Eck, CFA, Van Eck Associates Corporation was among the first U.S. money managers helping investors achieve greater diversification through global investing. Van Eck International Investors Gold Fund was launched in 1968, and was the first U.S. gold fund. Today the firm continues this tradition by offering innovative, actively managed investment portfolios in hard assets, emerging markets, precious metals including gold, fixed income and other alternative asset classes. Van Eck Global’s mutual funds are sold nationwide through retail brokers, financial planners and investment advisors. Designed for investors seeking innovative choices for portfolio diversification; Van Eck Global’s investment products are often categorized in asset classes having returns with low correlations to those of more traditional U.S. equity and fixed income investments. Market Vectors exchange-traded products (ETPs) have been offered by Van Eck since 2006 when the firm launched the nation’s first gold-mining ETF, Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF (GDX). Today, we offer more than 45 ETFs which span several asset classes, including equities, fixed income (municipal and international bonds) and currency markets. Many of our ETFs are based on pure-play indexes, whose constituents must derive a majority of revenues from the target region/sector. As of March 31, 2012, Market Vectors ETPs are currently the U.S.’ fifth largest provider of ETPs, and the eighth largest worldwide. Van Eck Global currently manages assets on behalf of more than 250 institutions including endowments, foundations, hospitals, pensions, and private banks.
