DWS is reducing the fees for individual share classes of the Xtrackers S&P 500 Equal Weight UCITS ETF. For share classes 1 C (accumulating) and 2 D (distributing), the flat fee will be reduced from 0.20 per cent to 0.15 per cent as of December 1, 2025, and for share class 1D-GBP Hedged from 0.30 per cent to 0.17 per cent.
The Xtrackers S&P 500 Equal Weight UCITS ETF tracks the performance of the 500 largest US companies. The stocks are weighted equally regardless of their market capitalisation. This means that the influence of individual companies on the performance of the overall portfolio is significantly lower. The ETF may therefore be suitable for investors who want to invest in the US market but wish to avoid the high valuations of individual companies and sectors. The fund volume of the ETF currently amounts to around EUR 8.7 billion.
“The Xtrackers S&P 500 Equal Weight UCITS ETF provides diversified access to one of the world’s most important stock markets by avoiding overweights. We are constantly reviewing which strategies allow us to offer permanent fee reductions and are therefore delighted that we can now offer investors this access on improved terms,” says Michael Mohr, Global Head of Xtrackers Products.
