Four multi-asset ETFs with equity allocations of 20, 40, 60, and 80 percent
ETFs invest broadly diversified across Xtrackers products in global blue chips and small caps, government bonds from industrialized and emerging markets, corporate bonds, and gold
Quarterly rebalancing of the target allocation
Cost-efficient flat fee of 0.24 percent per annum
DWS has launched four new Xtrackers ETFs that offer investors the opportunity to invest in a portfolio comprising the asset classes of equities, bonds, and gold with just one ETF. The Xtrackers Diversified Portfolio UCITS ETFs represent a highly diversified portfolio with varying equity portions – with equity allocations of 20, 40, 60, and 80 percent, respectively. The remainder is allocated to the asset classes of bonds and gold. The gold weighting is set at 5 percent for all portfolios. The new ETFs have been listed on the German Stock Exchange since February 18, 2026.
The ETFs follow a rule-based investment approach; there are no tactical or strategic reallocations. Currency hedging of the bond ETFs in euros is intended to improve the risk profile for domestic investors – especially in more defensive portfolios with a high bond allocation. DWS uses established Xtrackers ETFs and ETCs to allocate the portfolio. Xtrackers Diversified Portfolio UCITS ETFs are among the most broadly diversified and, at the same time, most affordable multi-asset ETFs on the market. The annual flat fee for all four ETFs is 0.24 percent.
The new Xtrackers multi-asset ETFs offer broader diversification than traditional equity and bond benchmarks. This is because gold, equities of small and medium-sized companies from developed countries, high-yield bonds, and emerging market bonds have tended to be underrepresented in multi-asset ETFs to date. In addition, the new products benefit from the targeted use of ETFs with index tracking via swaps which provides very precise index tracking, particularly in the US and emerging market equity segments. Quarterly rebalancing of the Diversified Portfolio ETFs and unscheduled adjustments – if regulatory limits are exceeded – ensure that the target allocations are maintained over the long term without triggering frequent transactions.
"With our new portfolio ETFs, we want to offer investors simple, cost-efficient, and broadly diversified multi-asset solutions," says Michael Mohr, Global Head of Xtrackers Products at DWS. "We are leveraging the breadth and depth of our product range to combine the investment universe from different risk and return sources."
"Our new multi-asset ETFs are particularly aimed at self-directed private investors who want to build a broadly diversified portfolio with minimal effort," says Simon Klein, Global Head of Xtrackers Sales at DWS. "With just one ETF, they gain access to multiple asset classes with the aim of investing their assets in a structured manner over the long term."
