Description

Xtrackers S P Select Frontier Swap UCITS ETF 1c tracks the issuer-declared index: S&P SELECT FRONTIER INDEX (USD). The declared annual cost (TER) is 0.95%, plus 0.00% in transaction costs estimated by the issuer in the KID. Replication is synthetic replication via a swap contract, as the KID declares; income is accumulated and reinvested in the fund. The fund has assets of about 140 million euro, was launched on 15 January 2008 and is domiciled in Luxembourg.

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

The fund is passively managed.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE:The aim is for your investment to reflect the performance of the S&P Select Frontier Index (index) which is itself designed to reflect the performance of shares of 40 of the largest and most liquid companies from the S&P Extended Frontier 150.

DESCRIPTION OF INDEX:The companies are from markets that have smaller economies or less developed markets than regular emerging markets, as determined by S&P.

Keep reading the KID section ▾

The companies must meet a minimum size requirement, meaning that the minimum combined value of their readily available shares is 100 million US Dollars. A company’s weighting in the index depends on its relative size based on the combined value of a company’s readily available shares as compared to other companies, but one company cannot make up more than 10% of the index. Companies are also selected based on the volume and regularity of trading in their shares. No more than 8 companies from any country are included on the index and one country cannot make up more than 30% of the index.

INDEX REBALANCING, CALCULATION AND ADMINISTRATION:The composition of the index is reviewed twice a year.

INVESTMENT POLICY:To achieve the aim, the fund will invest in transferable securities and enter into financial contracts (derivatives) with one or more swap counterparties relating to the transferable securities and the index, in order to obtain the return on the index. 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 2 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. Tracking difference was positive in 0 of the last 10 calendar years: a past observation, not an indication of future outperformance.
