Xtrackers USD High Yield Corporate Bond UCITS ETF 1D

Xtrackers USD High Yield Corporate Bond UCITS ETF 1D is an exchange-traded fund that tracks the Solactive USD High Yield Corporates Total Market Index, focusing on high-yielding, USD-denominated corporate bonds rated Ba1/BB+ or lower. Its primary function is to provide investors with exposure to the high yield bond segment, emphasizing bonds with greater liquidity and a minimum amount outstanding, typically spanning maturities from 1 to 15 years. Issued by DWS Investment S.A., the ETF employs a representative sampling technique to replicate the index's performance before fees, investing at least 80% of net assets in qualifying high yield corporates from US and non-US issuers, with issuer weight caps to ensure diversification across over 1,200 holdings. Notable features include accumulating distributions in the 1D share class and a total expense ratio reflecting efficient management. In the financial markets, it plays a key role in fixed income portfolios, offering income potential from below-investment-grade bonds while contributing to broader strategies in credit and yield enhancement sectors.
