Description

Xtrackers Msci World Quality Esg UCITS ETF 1c tracks the issuer-declared index: MSCI World Quality Low Carbon SRI Screened Select Index (). The declared annual cost (TER) is 0.25%, plus 0.03% in transaction costs estimated by the issuer in the KID. Replication is physical replication (the KID declares buying all or a substantial number of the index constituents); income is accumulated and reinvested in the fund. The fund has assets of about 196 million euro, was launched on 5 July 2023 and is domiciled in Ireland.

The fund’s objective — in the issuer’s words

The fund is passively managed.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE:The fund aims to reflect the performance, before fees and expenses, of the MSCI World Quality Low Carbon SRI Screened Select Index (index).

DESCRIPTION OF INDEX:The index is based on the MSCI World Index (Parent Index) which is designed to reflect the performance of certain shares in large and medium listed companies in developed markets. In order to be eligible for inclusion in the index, shares must be included as constituents within the Parent Index and must meet certain ESG criteria.

Keep reading the KID section ▾

ESG CRITERIA: The index excludes companies from the Parent Index which breach certain ESG standards, as disclosed in the prospectus and/or supplement. The ESG Criteria comprise the requirements as laid out in Article 12(1)(a) to (g) of the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/1818 (PAB Exclusions). Securities from the Parent Index which pass the ESG criteria will constitute the eligible universe (Eligible Universe). The Index applies certain selection and weighting constraints relative to the Parent Index and the MSCI World Quality Index which considers various "quality" characteristics (factors) such as the amount of income as a percentage of shareholder equity (Return-on-equity), Debt to Equity (leverage) and earning variability (which monitors movements in a company's net earning) of the shares and compares those results to peer companies. Securities from the Eligible Universe are selected and weighted following an optimisation-based approach which are subject to (a) climate (such as minimum relative reductions in fossil fuel sector exposure and greenhouse gas, water emissions and hazardous waste intensity) and ESG objectives and (b) diversification and factor objectives in relation to for example sector, security and country weights.

INDEX REBALANCING, CALCULATION AND ADMINISTRATION:The index is administered by MSCI Limited. The index is calculated on a total return net basis which means that all dividends and distributions by the companies are reinvested in the shares after tax. The index is rebalanced on a quarterly basis. The index is calculated daily in USD.

INVESTMENT POLICY:To achieve the aim, the fund will attempt to replicate the index, before fees and expenses, by buying all or a substantial number of the securities in the index. The fund may employ techniques and instruments in order to manage risk, reduce costs and improve results. These techniques and instruments may include the use of financial contracts (derivatives). FURTHER INFORMATION: Certain information (including the latest share prices of the fund, indicative net asset values, full disclosure on the composition of the fund's portfolio and information on the index constituents) are available on your local DWS website or at www.Xtrackers.com. Transaction costs and taxes, unexpected fund costs and market conditions such as volatility or liquidity issues may affect the ability of the fund to track the index. The anticipated level of tracking error in normal market conditions is 1 per cent. The currency of the fund is USD. Returns and gains are not distributed but are reinvested in the fund. You may request the redemption of shares generally on a daily basis.

Drawdown — distance from previous peak

This isn’t the return: it shows how far the fund is below its previous peak. 0% = you’re at the peak; below zero = how much you’re down and haven’t recovered yet.

From month-end NAVs, over the fund’s full history, on the series shown in the chart (dividends reinvested where declared). Deeper colour = larger move.
Source: Xtrackers. Issuer-declared historical series; inflation: Eurostat and national statistical institutes, latest available July 2026 — for later days the index stays at the last published value (institutes publish with a few weeks’ lag). The «adjusted for inflation» view expresses value in today’s purchasing power for the selected country; volatility always stays nominal, as elsewhere on the site (deflating it would add artificial swings caused by the monthly cadence of the price index). Past performance is not indicative of future results: these are facts, not a recommendation.

Tracking difference — fund vs index

How much the fund returned above (+) or below (−) its index, year by year. It measures the actual deviation: the combined effect of costs (TER and transaction), securities-lending revenue and replication optimisations — which is why it can beat the TER.

Windows longer than the available price history cannot be computed and are not shown: they will appear on their own as time passes. Computed from the daily NAV series, always in nominal terms. Sharpe and Sortino use the ECB main refinancing rate averaged over the period (last year: 2.21%), weighted by days in force, as the risk-free rate. Same formulas as our public methodology: sample standard deviation annualised over 252 days; Sortino with downside deviation. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
