DWS Invest Asian Bonds IDH

Fund objective

The fund is actively managed. The fund is managed in reference to a benchmark. The objective of the investment policy is to achieve sustained capital appreciation that exceeds the benchmark (JPMorgan ASIAN CREDIT INDEX). In order to achieve this, the fund invests in interest-bearing securities issued by governments of Asian countries, Asian government agencies, Asian countries municipals, companies which have their registered office in an Asian country, supra-national institutions denominated in Asian currencies and Non-Asian corporates that are issued in Asian currencies. The interest-bearing securities may be denominated in US dollars, other G-7 currencies or in an Asian currency. The rating of issuers can range from AAA to B-. The investment policy may also be implemented through the use of suitable derivatives. The selection of individual investments is at the discretion of the fund management. The majority of the fund's securities or their issuers are expected to be components of the benchmark. The fund management will use its discretion to invest in e.g. securities, sectors, ratings that are not included in the benchmark in order to take advantage of specific investment opportunities. The strategy offers investors access to the Asian Bond market. In regard to the benchmark the fund positioning can deviate substantially (e.g. by off-benchmark positioning or significant under- and overweights). Due to the before mentioned characteristic of the fund strategy the deviation of the portfolio from the benchmark is typically relatively high. Despite the fact that the fund aims to outperform the benchmark, the potential outperformance might be limited depending on the prevailing market environment (e.g. less volatile market environment) and actual positioning versus the benchmark. The currency of the fund is USD. The fund distributes annually. You may request the redemption of shares generally on a daily basis.
