Xtrackers Russell 2000 UCITS ETF 1C

Xtrackers Russell 2000 UCITS ETF 1C is an exchange-traded fund designed to replicate the performance of the Russell 2000 Index, which is a widely recognized benchmark for U.S. small-cap equities. The fund physically invests in the index’s constituents, offering exposure to 2,000 publicly traded small-cap companies across diverse sectors in the United States. With an accumulating structure, the ETF automatically reinvests any dividends derived from its holdings, rather than distributing them, thereby facilitating potential compounding growth within the fund. Launched in March 2015 and managed by DWS Investment S.A., it is domiciled in Ireland and boasts a competitive total expense ratio of 0.30% per annum. The fund has gathered significant assets under management, reflecting its role as a vehicle for investors seeking diversification and participation in the smaller company segment of the U.S. equity market, which can complement broader or large-cap focused strategies in a portfolio.
