4 Asset-Management announced changes today in its family of Market Vectors Indexes. From November 24, 2009, all indices will be calculated by S-BOX, the index platform of Structured Solutions AG.

This means that the calculation agent for the following indices changes from S&P Custom Indices to S-Box:

• Market Vectors Brazil Small-Cap Index

• Market Vectors Indonesia Index

• Market Vectors Vietnam Index

• Market Vectors Emerging Europe (ex Russia) Index

The change requires also a change of the link to the daily composition file which can be found in the „Constituents“-sections of each index profile on the homepage of 4asset-management (see screenshot).

Additionally, the Bloomberg ticker symbols for the total return indexes of all 4asset-management Market Vectors-Indexes will be changed as well:
