To our Shareholders: (Unaudited)
Dear shareholder,
We are pleased to provide this annual report for five of our ETFs tracking the fixed income market for the period ended August 31, 2022
The global economic recovery in 2021, after the pandemic-induced uncertainty, was followed by geopolitical developments in 2022 that have led to soaring energy prices, high interest rates and supply chain disruptions. Markets across the world, especially those in developed parts, such as the U.S. and the Eurozone, continued to suffer from the effects of the Russia-Ukraine war, which saw various central banks taking hawkish measures to curb rising inflation. The second quarter of 2022 also witnessed global output contracting due to a worse-than-forecasted slowdown in China caused by the country’s strict zero-COVID policy.
Policymakers across the globe continued to face the twin challenges of handling the post-pandemic recovery while fighting multi-year-high inflation rates. The Federal Reserve, in the wake of impending recession, has taken the most rigorous interest rate hikes (75 basis points1 (bps) each in June and July 2022) since the monetary policy tool was introduced in the 1990s. The European Central Bank on its part tightened its stance with a 50bps increase in rates and announced that it would stop its asset purchase program in the third quarter of 2022, forecasting a further hike in September. In the far east, the Bank of Japan has refrained from taking a hawkish view and continues to hold rates at around 0%.
Bond markets were volatile during the reporting period, driven by various macroeconomic and geopolitical events. Yields fell initially in Q4 2021, as economic recovery moderated, followed by heightened inflation worries and the ensuing hawkish central bank policies. Spreads widened the most in the U.S. market, followed by the European and UK markets, during the last quarter of 2021 following fears of the Omicron variant impacting global growth. However, yield spreads tightened again in December 2021 on evidence of the lower-than-expected impact of the virus and diminished supply of new bond issues. The Federal Reserve continued to tread on its hawkish path as its chairman, Jerome Powell, in his address at the Jackson Hole symposium, signaled at further rate hikes until inflation cools down. Overall, 1H22 caused record-breaking losses, as bond markets were adjusting to the central bank’s policy of higher interest rates.
The Eurozone’s economy remained most vulnerable to the changing dynamics of the Russian war, with energy and food commodity prices staying elevated as inflation climbed higher. Although the labor market remained a bright spot during the final quarter of 2021, consumer confidence dropped significantly amid prevalent uncertainties. The Eurozone’s third and fourth largest economies, Italy and Spain, were the major contributors to growth in 2022, sustaining their path to recovery from COVID-19, while the bloc’s largest economy, Germany stalled. France, Eurozone’s second-largest economy posted positive growth, backed by a positive contribution from net trade as exports grew.
All macroeconomic indicators point towards a significant slowdown in 2022, as central banks across the globe are at a crossroads of high inflation and economic recovery. Consumer confidence has remained weak owing to a less favorable long-term economic outlook, as a fragmented recovery is anticipated. Investors would need to keep an eye on potential sanctions on Russian energy by the European Union, as any further supply crunch on oil and gas could sustain the record-high inflation rates.
Our team appreciates your trust and looks forward to serving your investment needs through innovative index-driven strategies.
Sincerely,
/s/ Freddi Klassen

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance (Unaudited) (Continued)
Performance data quoted represents past performance and does not guarantee future results. Investment returns and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. To obtain the most recent month-end performance data visit www.Xtrackers.com. Returns assume that dividends and capital gains distributions have been reinvested. See pages 6-15 of this report for additional performance information, including performance data based on market value.
The views expressed in this report reflect those of the portfolio management team only through the end of the period of the report as stated on the cover. The management team’s views are subject to change at any time based on market and other conditions and should not be construed as a recommendation. Current and future portfolio holdings are subject to risk.

Xtrackers High Beta High Yield Bond ETF (HYUP)
The Xtrackers High Beta High Yield Bond ETF (the “Fund”), using a “passive” or indexing investment approach, seeks investment results that correspond generally to the performance, before fees and expenses, of the Solactive USD High Yield Corporates Total Market High Beta Index (the “Underlying Index”). The Underlying Index is designed to track the performance of the segment of the US dollar-denominated high yield corporate bond market that exhibits higher overall beta to the broader high yield corporate fixed income market. It is not possible to invest directly into an index.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available at www.Xtrackers.com. Performance results assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions and do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the sale of fund shares or redemption of fund creation units. The investment return and principal value of shares will vary with changes in market conditions. Shares may be worth more or less than their original cost when they are sold in the market or redeemed. Performance for certain funds may reflect a waiver of a portion of the unitary advisory fee. Without such waiver, performance would have been lower. The gross expense ratio of the Fund, as stated in the fee table of the prospectus dated December 17, 2021, was 0.35%, and may differ from the expense ratio disclosed in the Financial Highlights table in this report.
The Fund’s net asset value or “NAV” is calculated by dividing the value of the Fund’s total assets less total liabilities by the number of shares outstanding. The price used to calculate market return (“Market Price”) is determined by using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lowest offer on the primary stock exchange on which shares of a fund are listed for trading, as of the time that such fund’s NAV is calculated. Since shares of a fund may not have traded in the secondary market until after the fund’s inception, for the period from inception to the first day of secondary trading, the NAV of the fund is used as a proxy for the Market Price to calculate market returns. Market and NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested at Market Price and NAV, respectively.
An index is a statistical composite that tracks a specified financial market or sector. Unlike a fund, an index does not actually hold a portfolio of securities and therefore does not incur the expenses incurred by a fund. These expenses negatively impact fund performance. Also, market returns do not include brokerage commissions that may be payable on secondary market transactions. If brokerage commissions were included, market returns would be lower.
Generally accepted accounting principles require adjustments to be made to the net assets of the Fund at period end for financial reporting purposes only, and as such, the total return based on the unadjusted net asset value per share may differ from the total return reported in the financial highlights.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available at www.Xtrackers.com. Performance results assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions and do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the sale of fund shares or redemption of fund creation units.

Since shares of a fund may not have traded in the secondary market until after the fund’s inception, for the period from inception to the first day of secondary trading, the NAV of the fund is used as a proxy for the Market Price to calculate market returns. Market and NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested at Market Price and NAV, respectively.

Unlike a fund, an index does not actually hold a portfolio of securities and therefore does not incur the expenses incurred by a fund. These expenses negatively impact fund performance. Also, market returns do not include brokerage commissions that may be payable on secondary market transactions. If brokerage commissions were included, market returns would be lower.
Generally accepted accounting principles require adjustments to be made to the net assets of the Fund at period end for financial reporting purposes only, and as such, the total return based on the unadjusted net asset value per share may differ from the total return reported in the financial highlights.

The quality ratings represent the higher of Moody’s Investor Services, Inc. (“Moody’s”), S&P Global Ratings (S&P) or Fitch Ratings Inc. (Fitch) credit ratings. The ratings of Moody’s, S&P and Fitch represent their opinions as to the quality of the securities they rate. Credit quality measures a bond issuer’s ability to repay interest and principal in a timely manner and is measured on a scale that ranges from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Ratings are relative and subjective and are not absolute standards of quality. Credit quality does not remove market risk and is subject to change.

Performance Summary (Unaudited)
Xtrackers USD High Yield Corporate Bond ETF (HYLB)
The Xtrackers USD High Yield Corporate Bond ETF (the “Fund”), using a “passive” or indexing investment approach, seeks investment results that correspond generally to the performance, before fees and expenses, of the Solactive USD High Yield Corporates Total Market Index (the “Underlying Index”). The Underlying Index is designed to track the performance of a basket of U.S. dollar-denominated high yield liquid corporate bonds. It is not possible to invest directly into an index.

1 Total returns are calculated based on the commencement of operations, December 7, 2016 (“Inception”).
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available at www.Xtrackers.com. Performance results assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions and do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the sale of fund shares or redemption of fund creation units. The investment return and principal value of shares will vary with changes in market conditions. Shares may be worth more or less than their original cost when they are sold in the market or redeemed. Performance for certain funds may reflect a waiver of a portion of the unitary advisory fee. Without such waiver, performance would have been lower. The gross expense ratio of the Fund, as stated in the fee table of the prospectus dated December 17, 2021, was 0.20%, and may differ from the expense ratio disclosed in the Financial Highlights table in this report.
The Fund’s net asset value or “NAV” is calculated by dividing the value of the Fund’s total assets less total liabilities by the number of shares outstanding. The price used to calculate market return (“Market Price”) is determined by using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lowest offer on the primary stock exchange on which shares of a fund are listed for trading, as of the time that such fund’s NAV is calculated. Since shares of a fund may not have traded in the secondary market until after the fund’s inception, for the period from inception to the first day of secondary trading, the NAV of the fund is used as a proxy for the Market Price to calculate market returns. Market and NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested at Market Price and NAV, respectively.

As a shareholder of one or more of the Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares, and (2) ongoing costs, including unitary advisory fees and other fund expenses. In the most recent six-month period the Funds limited these expenses; had they not done so, expenses would have been higher. In addition to the ongoing expenses which each Fund bears directly, the Xtrackers Risk Managed USD High Yield Strategy ETF shareholders indirectly bear the expenses of Xtrackers High Beta High Yield Bond ETF and Xtrackers USD High Yield Corporate Bond ETF (the “Underlying Funds”) in which the Xtrackers Risk Managed USD High Yield Strategy ETF invests. The Underlying Funds’ expenses are not included in Xtrackers Risk Managed USD High Yield Strategy ETF’s annualized expense ratios used to calculate the expense estimate in the tables. The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The examples in the tables are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the six-month period and held for the entire period (March 1, 2022 to August 31, 2022).
Actual expenses
The first line in the following tables provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical example for comparison purposes
The second line in the following tables provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses (which is not the Funds’ actual return). The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the tables are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only, and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore the second line in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

(1) Expenses are equal to each Fund’s annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184 (the number of days in the most recent six-month period), then divided by 365.
(2) The Fund invests in other ETFs and indirectly bears its proportionate share of fees and expenses incurred by the Underlying Funds in which the Fund is invested. This ratio does not include these indirect fees and expenses.

Fair Value Measurements
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels. Level 1 includes quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. Level 2 includes other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit risk). Level 3 includes significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). The level assigned to the securities valuations may not be an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of August 31, 2022 in valuing the Fund’s investments. For information on the Fund’s policy regarding the valuation of investments, please refer to the Security Valuation section of Note 2 in the accompanying Notes to Financial Statements.

Fair Value Measurements
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels. Level 1 includes quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. Level 2 includes other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit risk). Level 3 includes significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). The level assigned to the securities valuations may not be an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of August 31, 2022 in valuing the Fund’s investments. For information on the Fund’s policy regarding the valuation of investments, please refer to the Security Valuation section of Note 2 in the accompanying Notes to Financial Statements.

Level 1 includes quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. Level 2 includes other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit risk). Level 3 includes significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). The level assigned to the securities valuations may not be an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of August 31, 2022 in valuing the Fund’s investments. For information on the Fund’s policy regarding the valuation of investments, please refer to the Security Valuation section of Note 2 in the accompanying Notes to Financial Statements.

Fair Value Measurements
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels. Level 1 includes quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. Level 2 includes other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit risk). Level 3 includes significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). The level assigned to the securities valuations may not be an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of August 31, 2022 in valuing the Fund’s investments. For information on the Fund’s policy regarding the valuation of investments, please refer to the Security Valuation section of Note 2 in the accompanying Notes to Financial Statements.

Fair Value Measurements
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels. Level 1 includes quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. Level 2 includes other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit risk). Level 3 includes significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). The level assigned to the securities valuations may not be an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of August 31, 2022 in valuing the Fund’s investments. For information on the Fund’s policy regarding the valuation of investments, please refer to the Security Valuation section of Note 2 in the accompanying Notes to Financial Statements.

DBX ETF Trust
1. Organization
DBX ETF Trust (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end registered management investment company organized as a Delaware statutory trust.
As of August 31, 2022, the Trust consists of thirty-five investment series of exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) in operation and trading. These financial statements report on the Funds listed below:
Xtrackers High Beta High Yield Bond ETF
Xtrackers Low Beta High Yield Bond ETF
Xtrackers Risk Managed USD High Yield Strategy ETF
Xtrackers Short Duration High Yield Bond ETF
Xtrackers USD High Yield Corporate Bond ETF
DBX Advisors LLC (“DBX” or the “Advisor”), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of DWS Group GmbH & Co. KGaA (“DWS Group”), serves as investment advisor to the Funds and has overall responsibility for the general management and administration of the Funds, subject to the supervision of the Funds’ Board of Trustees (“Board”).
Each Fund offers shares that are listed and traded on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (“NYSE Arca”). Unlike conventional mutual funds, each Fund issues and redeems shares on a continuous basis, at net asset value (“NAV”), only in large specified lots consisting of 50,000 shares, except for Xtrackers Risk Managed USD High Yield Strategy ETF which lots consist of 25,000 shares and Xtrackers USD High Yield Corporate Bond ETF which lots consist of 100,000 shares, each called a “Creation Unit”, to authorized participants who have entered into agreements with the Funds’ distributor. Shares are not individually redeemable securities of the Funds, and owners of the shares may acquire those shares from the Funds, or tender such shares for redemption to the Funds, in Creation Units only.
The investment objective of each Fund is to track the performance, before fees and expenses, of a particular index (the “Underlying Index”). The underlying indices for the Funds are:
Fund |
Underlying Index | |
Xtrackers High Beta High Yield Bond ETF | Solactive USD High Yield Corporates Total Market High Beta Index | |
Xtrackers Low Beta High Yield Bond ETF Xtrackers Risk Managed USD High Yield Strategy ETF |
Solactive USD High Yield Corporates Total Market Low Beta Index Adaptive Wealth Strategies Risk Managed High Yield Index | |
Xtrackers Short Duration High Yield Bond ETF | Solactive USD High Yield Corporates Total Market 0-5 Year Index | |
Xtrackers USD High Yield Corporate Bond ETF | Solactive USD High Yield Corporates Total Market Index |
The Solactive USD High Yield Corporates Total Market High Beta Index is designed to track the performance of the segment of the US dollar-denominated high yield corporate bond market that exhibits higher overall beta to the broader high yield corporate fixed income market. The Solactive USD High Yield Corporates Total Market Low Beta Index is designed to track the performance of the segment of the US dollar-denominated high yield corporate bond market that exhibits lower overall beta to the broader high yield corporate fixed income market. The Adaptive Wealth Strategies Risk Managed High Yield Index is designed to track the performance of the US dollar-denominated high yield corporate bond market during normal market conditions, and the performance of a USD cash position accruing interest at the Effective Federal Funds Rate (the interest rate depository institutions such as banks charge each other for overnight loans to meet their reserve requirements) during periods of adverse market conditions. The Solactive USD High Yield Corporates Total Market 0-5 Year Index is designed to track the performance of short-term publicly issued US dollar-denominated below investment grade corporate debt. The Solactive USD High Yield Corporates Total Market Index is designed to track the performance of a basket of U.S. dollar-denominated high yield liquid corporate bonds. Under normal circumstances, the Solactive Indexes are reconstituted monthly on the last day of each month. The Funds reconstitute and rebalance their portfolios in accordance with their respective underlying indexes, and therefore any changes to the underlying indexes reconstitution and rebalance schedules will result in corresponding changes to a Fund’s reconstitution and rebalance schedule.
Each Fund is entitled to use its respective Underlying Index pursuant to a licensing agreement between the Index Provider and DBX. There is no charge to the Funds in connection with these licensing agreements.

DBX ETF Trust
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
Xtrackers Risk Managed USD High Yield Strategy ETF is non-diversified and is not limited by the Act with regard to the percentage of its assets that may be invested in the securities of a single issuer. This means the securities of a particular issuer (or securities of issuers in particular industries) may dominate the Underlying Index of the Fund and, consequently, the Fund’s investment portfolio. This may adversely affect the Fund’s performance or subject the Fund’s shares to greater price volatility than that experienced by more diversified investment companies.
Pursuant to the Trust’s organizational documents, the Trust’s officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business the Trust enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations that provide indemnification for certain liabilities. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, the Trust expects the risk of loss to be remote.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Each Fund qualifies as an investment company under Topic 946 of the Accounting Standards Codification of U.S. GAAP. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds.
Security Valuation The NAV of each Fund’s shares is calculated each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time. NAV per share is calculated by dividing a Fund’s net assets by the number of Fund shares outstanding.
The Funds’ Board has designated the Advisor as the valuation designee for the Funds pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act. The Advisor’s Pricing Committee (the “Pricing Committee”) typically values securities using readily available market quotations or prices supplied by independent pricing services (which are considered fair values under Rule 2a-5). The Advisor has adopted fair valuation procedures that provide methodologies for fair valuing securities.
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Funds’ investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels. Level 1 includes quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. Level 2 includes other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, and credit risk). Level 3 includes significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). The level assigned to the securities valuations may not be an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with investing in those securities.
Corporate and sovereign debt securities are valued at prices supplied by independent pricing services approved by the Pricing Committee. Such services may use various pricing techniques which take into account appropriate factors such as yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other data, as well as broker quotes. If the pricing services are unable to provide valuations, securities are valued at the mean between the bid and ask quotations or evaluated prices, as applicable, obtained from broker-dealers. These securities are generally categorized as Level 2.
ETFs are valued at the most recent sale price or official closing price reported on the exchange (U.S. or foreign) or over-the-counter market on which they trade. ETFs for which no sales are reported are valued at the calculated mean between the most recent bid and asked quotations on the relevant market or, if a mean cannot be determined, at the most recent bid quotation. ETFs are generally categorized as Level 1.
Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their NAV each business day and are categorized as Level 1.
Securities and other assets for which market quotations are not readily available or for which the above valuation procedures are deemed not to reflect fair value are valued in a manner that is intended to reflect their fair value as determined in accordance with procedures approved by the Pricing Committee and are generally categorized as Level 3. In accordance with the Funds’ valuation procedures, factors considered in determining value may include, but are not limited to, the type of the security; the size of the holding; the initial cost of the security; the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition; the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies; quotations or evaluated prices from broker-dealers and/or
79
DBX ETF Trust
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
pricing services; information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities); an analysis of the company’s or issuer’s financial statements; an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold; length of time of a halt in trading of the security; movement in the security’s proxy index; and with respect to debt securities, the maturity, coupon, creditworthiness, currency denomination and the movement of the market in which the security is normally traded. The value determined under these procedures may differ from published values for the same securities.
Fair value pricing could result in a difference between the prices used to calculate a Fund’s NAV and the prices used by the Fund’s Underlying Index, which in turn could result in a difference between the Fund’s performance and the performance of the Fund’s Underlying Index
Disclosure about the classification of the fair value measurements is included in a table following the Fund’s Schedule of Investments.
Cash Cash consists of cash held at banks and is on deposit with major financial institutions.
Investment Transactions and Investment Income Investment transactions are recorded as of the date that the securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from the sale or disposition of securities are calculated on the identified cost-method. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. All premiums and discounts are amortized/accreted for both tax and financial reporting purposes. Distributions of income and capital gains from investments in affiliated funds are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Tax Information and Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders It is each Fund’s policy to comply with all requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“the Code”). Each Fund intends to qualify for and to elect treatment as a separate Regulated Investment Company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Code. It is the policy of each Fund to pay out dividends from its net investment income, if any, to investors monthly. Taxable net realized gains from investment transactions, reduced by capital loss carryforwards, if any, are declared and distributed to shareholders at least annually. The capital loss carryforward amount, if any, is available to offset future net capital gains. The Funds may occasionally be required to make supplemental distributions at some other time during the year. The Funds reserve the right to declare special distributions if, in their reasonable discretion, such action is necessary or advisable to preserve the status of each Fund as a RIC or to avoid imposition of income or excise taxes on undistributed income. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from U.S. GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified at the end of the year within the components of net assets based on their federal tax treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Dividends and distributions, which exceed earnings and profits for the full year for tax purposes, are reported as a tax return of capital.
In accordance with U.S. GAAP requirements regarding accounting for uncertainties in income taxes, management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions taken or expected to be taken on foreign, federal and state income tax returns for all open tax years and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements.
The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense on the Statements of Operations. For the year ended August 31, 2022, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
As of August 31, 2022, the components of accumulated earnings (losses) on a tax basis were as follows:

For tax purposes short-term capital gain distributions are considered ordinary income distributions. |
At August 31, 2022, for Federal income tax purposes, the Funds have capital loss carryforwards available as shown in the table below, to the extent provided by regulations, to offset future capital gains for an unlimited period. To the extent that these loss carryforwards are used to offset future capital gains, it is probable that the capital gains so offset will not be distributed to shareholders.

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
Foreign Taxes The Funds may be subject to foreign taxes (a portion of which may be reclaimable) on income, capital gains on investments, certain foreign currency transactions or other corporate events. All foreign taxes are recorded in accordance with the applicable foreign tax regulations and rates that exist in the foreign jurisdictions in which the Funds invest. These foreign taxes, if any, are paid by the Funds and are reflected in their Statements of Operations as follows: foreign taxes withheld at source are presented as a reduction of income, and foreign taxes on capital gains from sales of investments and foreign currency transactions are included in their respective net realized gain (loss) categories. Receivables and payables related to foreign taxes as of August 31, 2022, if any, are disclosed in the Funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Foreign Currency Translations The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rates on the respective dates of the transactions.
Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net gains and losses between trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the acquisition and disposition of foreign currencies, and the difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and the U.S. dollar amount actually received. The portion of both realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed, but is included with net realized and unrealized gain/appreciation and loss/depreciation on investments.
Securities Lending The Funds may lend securities to certain financial institutions under the terms of their securities lending agreement. During the term of the loans the Funds continue to receive interest and dividends generated by the securities and to participate in any changes in their market value. The Funds require the borrowers of the securities to maintain collateral with the Funds consisting of cash and/or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities having a value at least equal to the value of the securities loaned. When the collateral falls below specified amounts, the lending agent will use its best effort to obtain additional collateral on the next business day to meet required amounts under the securities lending agreement. During the year ended August 31, 2022, the Funds invested the cash collateral into a joint trading account in DWS Government & Agency Securities Portfolio, an affiliated money market fund managed by DWS Investment Management Americas, Inc. DWS Investment Management Americas, Inc. receives a management/administration fee (0.06% annualized effective rate as of August 31, 2022) on the cash collateral invested in DWS Government & Agency Securities Portfolio. The Funds receive compensation for lending their securities either in the form of fees or by earning interest on invested cash collateral, net of borrower rebates and fees paid to a lending agent. Either the Fund or the borrower may terminate the loan at any time and the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within a standard time period. There may be risks of delay and costs in recovery of securities or even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the securities fail financially. If the Funds are not able to recover securities lent, the Funds may sell the collateral and purchase a replacement investment in the market, incurring the risk that the value of the replacement security is greater than the value of the collateral. The Funds are also subject to all investment risks associated with the reinvestment of any cash collateral received, including, but not limited to, interest rate, credit and liquidity risk associated with such investments.

(“DIMA”), also an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of DWS Group GmbH & Co. KGaA. Each affiliated money market fund is managed in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act, which governs the quality, maturity, diversity and liquidity of instruments in which a money market fund may invest. DWS Government Money Market Series seeks to maintain a stable NAV, and DWS ESG Liquidity Fund maintains a floating NAV. The Funds indirectly bear their proportionate share of the expenses of each affiliated money market fund in which they invest.

3. Investment Advisory and Other Agreements

Under an investment advisory agreement between the Trust, on behalf of the Funds, and the Advisor (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”), the Advisor is responsible for arranging sub-advisory, transfer agency, custody, fund administration, and all other non-distribution related services for the Funds to operate.
For its investment advisory services to the Funds below, the Advisor was entitled to receive a unitary advisory fee based on each Fund’s average daily net assets, computed and accrued daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate equal to:

5. Fund Share Transactions
As of August 31, 2022, there were unlimited Fund shares, no par value, authorized by the Trust. Fund shares are issued and redeemed by each Fund only in Creation Units or multiples thereof. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares of each Fund are not redeemable. Transactions in capital shares for each Fund are disclosed in detail in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. The consideration for the purchase of Creation Units of a Fund generally consists of the in-kind contribution of a designated portfolio of securities constituting a portfolio sampling representation of the securities included in the respective Fund’s Underlying Index and an amount of cash, which under certain circumstances may include cash in lieu of portfolio securities. Investors purchasing and redeeming Creation Units pay a purchase transaction fee and a redemption transaction fee to offset transfer and other transaction costs associated with the issuance and redemption of Creation Units.
6. Investing in High-Yield Debt Securities
High-yield debt securities or junk bonds are generally regarded as speculative with respect to the issuer’s continuing ability to meet principal and interest payments. A Fund’s performance could be hurt if an issuer of a debt security suffers an adverse change in financial condition that results in the issuer not making timely payments of interest or principal, a security downgrade or an inability to meet a financial obligation. High-yield debt securities’ total return and yield may generally be expected to fluctuate more than the total return and yield of investment-grade debt securities. A real or perceived economic downturn or an increase in market interest rates could cause a decline in the value of high-yield debt securities, result in increased redemptions and/or result in increased portfolio turnover, which could result in a decline in NAV of a Fund, reduce liquidity for certain investments and/or increase costs. High-yield debt securities are often thinly traded and can be more difficult to sell and value accurately than investment-grade debt securities as there may be no established secondary market. Investments in high-yield debt securities could increase liquidity risk for a Fund. In addition, the market for high-yield debt securities can experience sudden and sharp volatility which is generally associated more with investments in stocks.
7. Line of Credit
The Trust has entered into a senior unsecured credit facility with a syndication of banks which allows the Xtrackers USD High Yield Corporate Bond ETF and certain other funds managed by the Advisor to borrow up to $105 million. The Fund may borrow money under this credit facility to the extent necessary for temporary or emergency purposes, including the funding of shareholder redemption requests, trade settlements, and as necessary to distribute to shareholders any income necessary to maintain the Fund’s status as a regulated
85

investment company. Borrowings are charged an interest rate of 1.25% per annum plus the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the one-month LIBOR Rate. The Fund may borrow up to the lesser of 33 percent of its net assets as permitted by the Act or 25 percent of adjusted total net assets. The Fund had no outstanding loans at August 31, 2022.
8. Other — COVID-19 Pandemic
A novel coronavirus known as COVID-19, declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization, has caused significant uncertainty, market volatility, decreased economic and other activity, increased government activity, including economic stimulus measures, and supply chain interruptions. The full effects, duration and costs of the COVID-19 pandemic are impossible to predict, and the circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to evolve, including the risk of future increased rates of infection due to significant portions of the population remaining unvaccinated and/or the lack of effectiveness of current vaccines against new variants. The pandemic has affected and may continue to affect certain countries, industries, economic sectors, companies and investment products more than others, may exacerbate existing economic, political, or social tensions and may increase the probability of an economic recession or depression. The Funds’ and their investments may be adversely affected by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the pandemic may result in the Funds and their service providers experiencing operational difficulties in coordinating a remote workforce and implementing their business continuity plans, among others. Management will continue to monitor the impact COVID-19 has on the Funds and reflect the consequences as appropriate in the Funds’ accounting and financial reporting.
9. Stock Split
On April 13, 2021, the Xtrackers USD High Yield Corporate Bond ETF implemented a 5 for 4 stock split of its outstanding shares. The net effect of the stock split was to increase the number of outstanding shares and decrease the net asset value per share by a proportionate amount for the shares of the Fund. The stock split had no impact on the overall value of a shareholder’s investment in the Fund. Capital share activity referenced in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets, and per share and net asset value data in the Financial Highlights tables have been restated to reflect the stock split.

Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on each of the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Trust in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

DBX ETF Trust
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (Continued)
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian, brokers and others; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We have served as the auditor of one or more investment companies in the DWS family of funds since at least 1979, but we are unable to determine the specific year.

DBX ETF Trust
This report is intended for the shareholders of the DBX ETF Trust.
This report must be preceded or accompanied by a prospectus.
Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. Bond investments are subject to interest rate, credit, liquidity and market risks to varying degrees. When interest rates rise, bond prices generally fall. Foreign investing involves greater and different risks than investing in U.S. companies, including currency fluctuations, less liquidity, less developed or less efficient trading markets, lack of comprehensive company information, political instability and differing auditing and legal standards. Investing in a single industry, or group of industries, country or in a limited geographic region generally are more volatile than more diversified funds. Investments in lower-quality (“junk bonds”) and non-rated securities present greater risk of loss than investments in higher-quality securities. Distressed securities are speculative and involve substantial risks beyond the risks of investing in junk bonds, such as no interest payments or repayment of principal, or the loss of the entire investment in the distressed security. Credit risk refers to the ability of an issuer to make timely payments of principal and interest. Investing in derivatives entails special risks relating to liquidity, leverage and credit that may reduce returns and/or increase volatility. HYRM is currently non-diversified and can take larger positions in fewer issues, increasing its potential risk. Performance of the Funds may diverge from that of the Underlying Index due to operating expenses, transaction costs, cash flows, use of sampling strategies or operational inefficiencies. An investment in these Funds should be considered only as a supplement to a complete investment program for those investors willing to accept the risks associated with the Funds. Please read the prospectus for more information.
War, terrorism, sanctions, economic uncertainty, trade disputes, public health crises and related geopolitical events have led, and, in the future, may lead to significant disruptions in U.S. and world economies and markets, which may lead to increased market volatility and may have significant adverse effects on the Funds and their investments.
Shares of the Funds are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) throughout the day on the NYSE Arca, Inc. or Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc., as applicable. Transactions in Fund shares may result in brokerage commissions and may generate tax consequences. There can be no assurance that an active trading market for shares of a Fund will develop or be maintained.
