INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE:The fund aims to reflect the performance, before fees and expenses, of the MSCI World High Dividend Yield 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 in the Parent Index and must meet certain environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria. ESG CRITERIA: Securities from the Parent Index which pass the ESG screening criteria, as disclosed in the prospectus and/or supplement, will constitute the eligible universe (Eligible Universe). Securities from the Eligible Universe are selected and weighted following an optimisation-based approach (including optimising for high dividend yields) which are subject to (a) climate (such as minimum relative reductions in fossil fuel exposure and greenhouse gas, water emissions and hazardous waste intensity) and other ESG objectives and (b) diversification objectives in relation to for example a minimum increase in dividend yield relative to the parent index as well as sector, security and country weights. 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”).

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. The fund distributes up to four times per annum. You may request the redemption of shares generally on a daily basis.
