DWS strengthens Xtrack­ers’ core ETF range with in­nov­at­ive and cost-ef­fi­cient glob­al equity strategies

4/20/2026

  • For the first time, Xtrackers is offering UCITS ETFs tracking the MSCI World IMI (Small, Mid & Large Caps) and FTSE All World ex US index indices

  • Three new ETFs offer broadly diversified, cost-effective access to global equity markets

  • Expansion of the core range to include FTSE All-World, FTSE All-World ex US and MSCI World IMI

  • Flexible building blocks for managing equity allocation and market coverage

For fur­ther in­form­a­tion, please con­tact:

DWS is expanding its Xtrackers Core ETF range and offering investors three new ETFs for global equity allocation. With the Xtrackers FTSE All-World UCITS ETF, the Xtrackers FTSE All-World ex US UCITS ETF and the Xtrackers MSCI World IMI UCITS ETF, DWS provides cost-effective and broadly diversified solutions for a variety of portfolio construction requirements.

The Xtrackers FTSE All-World UCITS ETF provides comprehensive access to developed and emerging equity markets worldwide and tracks large- and mid-cap companies across developed and emerging markets. The ETF offers a total expense ratio (TER) of 0.12% per annum, currently the lowest in its peer group. The Xtrackers FTSE All-World ex US UCITS ETF complements this offering with a targeted solution for investors who wish to manage their US exposure more precisely: it invests in global equity markets outside the United States and can thus contribute to greater geographical diversification. The ETF is the first UCITS ETF available based on this strategy and builds on the success of the Xtrackers MSCI World ex USA UCITS ETF (€5.2 billion AuM, as at 15 April 2026).

With the Xtrackers MSCI World IMI UCITS ETF, DWS is also the first provider in Europe to offer a strategy that captures developed equity markets across all market capitalisation segments. In addition to large and medium-sized companies, the index also includes smaller stocks, thereby covering around 99 per cent of investable market capitalisation in developed countries.

The new ETFs expand the Xtrackers range in the core segment, which is geared towards cost-efficient and transparent index solutions for long-term wealth accumulation. This provides investors with additional flexibility to structure their global equity allocation – whether through full market coverage, targeted management of US exposure or broader diversification across market capitalisations. The new Xtrackers ETFs have been listed on the Deutsche Börse since 20 April and will be listed on the London Stock Exchange from 24 April.

“Investors continue to seek simple and cost-effective solutions to efficiently manage their global equity allocation and invest in a targeted manner,” says Simon Klein, Global Head of Xtrackers Sales at DWS. “With the new ETFs, we are offering them additional building blocks to tilt their portfolios towards specific regions while benefiting from broad market exposure.”
