NEW YORK, NY – DWS, a leading European asset manager with global reach, today announced the conversion of the Xtrackers MSCI EAFE Selection Equity ETF (NYSE: EASG) to the Xtrackers Bloomberg Developed Markets Ex US Equity ETF (NYSE: DMXU) (“The Fund”). The passively managed fund seeks to track the Bloomberg Developed Markets ex US Core Markets Index with a competitive expense ratio of 0.03%.

The Fund aims to provide strategic exposure to large- and mid-cap companies in developed markets outside the United States and in South Korea and is designed to complement investors’ existing U.S. equity allocations. This strategy could help broaden portfolio return drivers and reduce reliance on any single market or region by providing exposure to companies operating across Europe, Asia-Pacific, and North America.

“One of the defining characteristics of today's market environment is the growing concentration of capital within a limited number of companies and geographies,” said Hepsen Uzcan, Chief Executive Officer of DWS Americas. “As investors evaluate how best to build resilient portfolios, diversification remains as relevant as ever. Our partnership with Bloomberg reflects a shared commitment to delivering innovative, institutionally grounded solutions that give investors broader access to international equity markets through a trusted and transparent framework.”

“Investors today need benchmarks that provide broad, transparent, and targeted exposure to developed markets for global diversification,” said Michael Pruzinsky, Equity Index Product Manager at Bloomberg Index Services Limited. “The Bloomberg Developed Markets ex US Core Markets Index delivers on that need with rules-based access to developed markets across Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Canada. We are excited to work with DWS on the DMXU launch to offer investors an efficient way to diversify their equity exposure and broaden their return drivers beyond the U.S."

Xtrackers by DWS is committed to providing U.S. investors with access to the international equity markets by investing across a differentiated mix of sectors, end markets, companies, and currencies. Built for core international exposure, the Fund offers a cost-efficient way to diversify beyond the U.S. equity market.

DMXU is available for trading on NYSE and has a net/gross expense ratio of 0.03%.

RISK DISCLOSURE
Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. Stocks may decline in value. Developed market countries generally rely on the services sectors as the primary source of growth and may be susceptible to the risks of individual service sectors. Developed market countries are also dependent on the economies of key trading partners and may be negatively impacted by changes in the economies of those trading partners. Foreign investing involves greater and different risks than investing in US companies, including currency fluctuations, less liquidity, less developed or less efficient trading markets, lack of comprehensive company information, political instability and differing auditing and legal standards. Performance of the fund may diverge from that of the Underlying Index due to operating expenses, transaction costs, cash flows, use of sampling strategies or operational inefficiencies. An investment in this fund should be considered only as a supplement to a complete investment program for those investors willing to accept the risks associated with the fund. Please read the prospectus for more information.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

ETF shares are not individually redeemable, and owners of shares may acquire those shares from the Fund or tender such shares for the redemption to the Fund in Creation Units only.

Consider the Fund’s investment objective, risk factors and charges and expenses before investing. This and other important information can be found in the Fund’s prospectus, which may be obtained by calling 1-844-851-4255 or by viewing or downloading a prospectus at www.Xtrackers.com. Please read it carefully before investing.

Investing involves risk including loss of principal. Stocks may decline in value. Bond investments are subject to interest-rate, credit, liquidity, and market risks to varying degrees. When interest rates rise, bond prices generally fall. You cannot invest directly in an index. Credit risk refers to the ability of an issuer to make timely payments of principal and interest. Investing in derivatives entails special risks relating to liquidity, leverage and credit that may reduce returns and/or increase volatility. Foreign investing involves greater and different risks than investing in US companies, including currency fluctuations, less liquidity, less developed or less efficient trading markets, lack of comprehensive company information, political instability and differing auditing and legal standards. Emerging markets tend to be more volatile and less liquid than the markets of more mature economies, and generally have less diverse and less mature economic structures and less stable political systems than those of developed countries. Funds investing in a single industry, country or in a limited geographic region generally are more volatile than more diversified funds. Performance of a fund may diverge from that of an underlying index due to operating expenses, transaction costs, cash flows, use of sampling strategies or operational inefficiencies. There are additional risks associated with investing in high-yield bonds, aggressive growth stocks, non-diversified/concentrated funds and small- and mid-cap stocks which are more fully explained in the prospectuses, as applicable. An investment in any fund should be considered only as a supplement to a complete investment program for those investors willing to accept the risks associated with that fund. Please read the applicable prospectus for more information.

Shares of exchange traded funds (ETFs) are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) throughout the day on the Fund’s Primary Listing Exchange. There can be no assurance that an active trading market for shares of a fund will develop or be maintained. Transactions in shares of ETFs will result in Brokerage commissions and will generate tax consequences. There are risks associated with investing, including possible loss of principal.
