Xtrackers II ESG Global Aggregate Bond UCITS ETF 5C EUR Hedged is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) that seeks to replicate the performance of the Bloomberg MSCI Global Aggregate Sustainable and SRI Currency Neutral Index - Benchmark TR Gross, a broad-based measure of global investment grade fixed-rate debt markets screened for environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria. Its primary function is to provide investors with diversified exposure to a portfolio of treasury, government-related, corporate, and securitized bonds from issuers worldwide, including both developed and emerging markets, while promoting sustainable and socially responsible investing practices. Launched on March 6, 2014, and domiciled in Luxembourg as a synthetic replication UCITS ETF managed by DWS Investment S.A., it employs currency hedging to EUR to mitigate exchange rate risks and capitalizes dividends for reinvestment. With an expense ratio of 0.10% to 0.20% and assets under management around 360 million EUR, the fund holds over 5,000 securities, featuring significant allocations to U.S. Treasury notes among its top holdings. This ETF plays a key role in the fixed-income market by enabling balanced participation in global bonds aligned with ESG standards, supporting ethical portfolio construction across geographies and maturities of at least one year.
