To our Shareholders: (Unaudited)

 

 

Dear Shareholder,

We are pleased to provide this semi-annual report on our four flagship ETFs tracking China’s equity market for the period ended November 30, 2022.

The global economy has continued to face significant challenges during the reporting period, with high inflation, interest rate hikes, geopolitical tensions, and rising COVID-19 cases in China. Major central banks across the world hiked interest rates to curb inflation, despite fears that doing so could tip the global economy into a recession. However, rising hopes of a slowdown in the pace of rate hikes by the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) boosted investor sentiment and supported gains for the markets. Despite reeling under high inflation, U.S. markets staged a turnaround toward the end of the period and posted their first back-to-back monthly gains since 2021. The Fed raised the policy rate by 75 bps1 in June, July, September and November, bringing the rate between 3.75% and 4%. The Eurozone continued reeling under high energy prices, Russia’s war with Ukraine, and decades-high inflation throughout the period, and the European Central Bank (ECB) hiked interest rates by 75 bps in September, following a 50 bps hike in July, to fight soaring inflation.

China’s economy recovered at a faster-than-expected pace, with GDP2 increasing by 3.9% year on year. The economy was buoyed by a series of policies and stimulus from Beijing. Industrial production rose in both mining and manufacturing. Economic data shows that growth in industrial activity has been a major source of strength for the economy. Automobile manufacturing also increased, and the country produced more than double the number of new-energy vehicles compared to last year. Investments in fixed assets continued to increase. Exports remain essential to China’s development, with imports only modestly improving throughout the period. The unemployment rate remained steady at 5.5%.

On the policy front, the People’s Bank of China (PBoC) kept its key lending rates unchanged for the third straight month in November. The State Council announced RMB300bn in policy financing for property and RMB200bn in special bonds for power producers. The PBoC lowered the rate of one-year medium-term lending facility loans to some financial institutions by 10 bps. This was followed by asymmetric one-year loan prime rates and a preliminary agreement with the U.S. over audit inspections. The PBoC also cut the seven-day reverse repo rate from 2.1% to 2% to boost support for the economy affected by COVID-19-related lockdowns and a property downturn.

We believe the global economy is likely to witness weaker growth ahead, weighed down by record-high inflation and high retail inventories. We expect global inflation to peak in the fourth quarter of 2022. While the U.S. might narrowly miss a recession in 2023, the Eurozone is expected to witness a contraction in GDP. Meanwhile, slowing demand and declining housing prices are likely to help reduce inflation levels and prompt the world’s major central banks to pause or scale back further rate hikes.

Our team appreciates your trust and looks forward to serving your investment needs through innovative index-driven strategies.

Sincerely,

/s/ Freddi Klassen

Fees and Expenses (Unaudited)

 

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 Xtrackers MSCI China A Inclusion Equity ETF and Xtrackers MSCI All China Equity ETF 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 MSCI All China Equity ETF shareholders indirectly bear the expenses of Xtrackers MSCI China A Inclusion Equity ETF and Xtrackers Harvest CSI 500 China A-Shares Small Cap ETF (the “Underlying Funds”) in which the Xtrackers MSCI All China Equity ETF invests. The Underlying Funds’ expenses are not included in Xtrackers MSCI All China Equity 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 (June 1, 2022 to, November 30, 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 183 (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 November 30, 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 November 30, 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 November 30, 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.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

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 November 30, 2022, the Trust consists of thirty-eight 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 Harvest CSI 300 China A-Shares ETF  
Xtrackers Harvest CSI 500 China A-Shares Small Cap ETF  
Xtrackers MSCI All China Equity ETF  
Xtrackers MSCI China A Inclusion Equity 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, 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:

Xtrackers MSCI China A Inclusion Equity ETF   MSCI China A Inclusion Index

CSI 300 Index is calculated and maintained by China Securities Index Co., Ltd. It is designed to reflect the price fluctuation and performance of the China A-Share market and is composed of the 300 largest and most liquid stocks in the China A-Share market. Constituent stocks for the Underlying Index generally must have been listed on either the Shanghai Stock Exchange or the Shenzhen Stock Exchange for specified time periods, have demonstrated positive performance, and not be subject to abnormal volatility or other evidence of possible market manipulation, among other factors. The composition of the Underlying Index is reviewed every six-months.

CSI 500 Index is calculated and maintained by China Securities Index Co., Ltd. is designed to reflect the price fluctuation and performance of small-cap companies in the China A-Share market and is composed of the 500 smallest and most liquid stocks in the China A-Share market. Constituent stocks for the Underlying Index generally must have been listed on either the Shanghai Stock Exchange or the Shenzhen Stock Exchange for specified time periods, have demonstrated positive performance, and not be subject to abnormal volatility or other evidence of possible market manipulation, among other factors. The composition of the Underlying Index is reviewed every six-months.

MSCI China All Shares Index and MSCI China A Inclusion Equity Index are each calculated and maintained by MSCI, Inc. (“MSCI”). The MSCI China All Share Index is designed to capture large- and mid-capitalization representation across all China securities listed in Hong Kong, Shanghai and Shenzhen. The Underlying Index is intended to give investors a means of tracking the overall performance of equity securities that are a representative sample of the entire Chinese investment universe. The Underlying Index is comprised of A-Shares, B-Shares, H-Shares, Red chips and P chips share classes as well as securities of Chinese companies listed outside of China (e.g. American depository receipts). The Underlying Index is rebalanced on a quarterly basis..

The MSCI China A Inclusion Index is designed to track the equity market performance of China A-Shares that are accessible through the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect program or the Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect

program (together “Stock Connect”). “A-Shares” are equity securities issued by companies incorporated in mainland China and are denominated in renminbi. Certain eligible A-Shares are traded on the Shanghai or Shenzhen Stock Exchanges. The Underlying Index is designed to track the inclusion of A-Shares in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index over time and is constructed by MSCI by applying eligibility criteria for the MSCI Global Investable Market Indexes, and then excluding mid- and small-capitalization A-Shares (as determined by MSCI), A-Shares suspended for trading for more than 50 days in the past 12 months and A-Shares that are not accessible through Stock Connect. The Underlying Index is weighted by each issuer’s free float-adjusted market capitalization (i.e., includes only shares that are readily available for trading in the market) available to foreign investors and includes only large-capitalization companies, as determined by MSCI. The Underlying Index is rebalanced on a quarterly basis.

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.

Each Fund is a diversified series of the Trust. In addition, each Fund, with the exception of Xtrackers MSCI All China Equity ETF, may change its diversification status over time and then change it back again, without shareholder approval, solely as a result of a change in relative market capitalization or index weighting of one or more constituents of the index each Fund tracks.

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.

Equity securities and 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. Securities or 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. Equity securities and 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 a Level 1.

 

39


DBX ETF Trust

 

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

Futures contracts are generally valued at the settlement prices established each day on the exchange on which they are traded 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 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; 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. Dividend income is net of any foreign taxes withheld at source. Certain dividends from foreign securities may be recorded subsequent to the ex-dividend date as soon as the Fund is informed of such dividends. Distributions of income and capital gains from investments in affiliated funds are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Distributions received from foreign domiciled corporations, generally determined to be passive foreign investment companies for tax reporting purposes, are included in dividend income.

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 annually. 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.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense on the Statements of Operations. For the period ended November 30, 2022, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

At May 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.

The tax character of current year distributions will be determined at the end of the current fiscal year.

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, foreign taxes on capital gains from sales of investments and foreign currency transactions are included in their respective net realized gain (loss) categories, and deferred foreign taxes on unrealized gains are included in net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation). Receivables and payables related to foreign taxes as of November 30, 2022, if any, are disclosed in the Funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

The Funds’ direct investments in China A-Shares will be subject to a number of Chinese tax rules and the application of many of those rules is evolving. Chinese taxes that may apply to the Funds’ direct investments in A-Shares include withholding income tax (“WHT”) on dividends, WHT on bank interest, WHT on capital gains realized from the disposal of equity investments prior to November 17, 2014 and stamp tax. China imposes WHT at a rate of 10% on dividends on shares and interest income derived by non People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) enterprises including Qualified Foreign Institutional Investors (“QFII”) and Renminbi Qualified Foreign Institutional Investors (“RQFII”) from PRC resident issuers, subject to any lower rate provided by an applicable tax treaty.

Since November 17, 2014, RQFIIs have been temporarily exempt from WHT with respect to gains derived from the trading of equity investments (including shares in PRC enterprises). With respect to gains derived from equity investments prior to November 17, 2014, RQFIIs are subject to WHT at a rate of 10% on such gains on a gross basis, subject to any lower rate provided by an applicable tax treaty. The above WHT treatment applies to RQFIIs which do not have a permanent establishment (“PE”) in the PRC. The Funds do not have PEs in the PRC, therefore, the Funds are only subject to WHT at 10% with respect to gross realized gains derived from the disposal of land-rich A-Share companies and exempt from WHT with respect to gross realized gains derived from non land-rich A-Share companies prior to November 17, 2014. Land-rich enterprises refer to companies whose value of immovable property in the PRC is greater than 50% of the value of their total assets at any time during the

three-year period before the alienation of the PRC companies’ shares. The WHT relating to the realized gains from shares in land-rich companies prior to November 17, 2014 has been paid by the Xtrackers Harvest CSI 300 China A-Shares ETF and Xtrackers Harvest CSI 500 China A-Shares Small Cap ETF while realized gains from shares in non land-rich companies prior to November 17, 2014 were granted treaty relief pursuant to the PRC-US Double Taxation Arrangement.

The PRC rules for taxation of RQFIIs (and QFIIs) are evolving and the tax regulations to be issued by the PRC State Administration of Taxation and/or PRC Ministry of Finance, as well as the practices adopted by the local PRC authorities, may apply retroactively which may adversely affect the Fund and its shareholders.

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 Xtrackers MSCI All China Equity ETF and Xtrackers MSCI China A Inclusion Equity ETF 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 period ended November 30, 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 (0.07% annualized effective rate as of November 30, 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.

As of November 30, 2022, the Funds listed below had securities on loan. The value of the related collateral exceeded the value of the securities loaned at period end.

Derivatives

Futures Contracts    Each Fund may enter into futures contracts. These futures contracts will be used to simulate investment in the respective Underlying Index, to facilitate trading or to reduce transaction costs. Each Fund will enter into futures contracts that are traded on a U.S. or non-U.S. exchange. No Fund will use futures for speculative purposes. Futures contracts provide for the future sale by one party and purchase by another party of a specified amount of a specific instrument or index at a specified future time and at a specified price. For the period ended November 30, 2022, Xtrackers MSCI All China Equity ETF and Xtrackers MSCI China A Inclusion Equity ETF utilized futures in order to simulate investment in the Funds’ Underlying Index. To the extent required by law, liquid assets committed to futures contracts will be maintained.

At the time each Fund enters into a futures contract, each Fund deposits and maintains as collateral an initial margin with the broker, as required by the exchange on which the transaction is affected. Pursuant to the contract, each Fund agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in the value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margin and are recorded by each Fund as unrealized gains or losses. Risks may arise from the potential inability of a counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. The credit/counterparty risk for exchange-traded futures contracts is generally less than privately negotiated futures contracts, since the clearinghouse, which is the issuer or counterparty to each exchange-traded future, provides a guarantee of performance. The guarantee is supported by a daily payment system (i.e., margin requirements).

Use of long futures contracts subjects each Fund to risk of loss in excess of the amounts shown on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, up to the notional value of the futures contracts. Use of short futures contracts subjects each Fund to unlimited risk of loss. Under some circumstances, futures exchanges may establish daily limits on the amount that the price of a futures contract can vary from the previous day’s settlement price, which could effectively prevent liquidation of unfavorable positions.

A summary of the open futures contracts as of November 30, 2022 is included in a table following the Funds’ Schedule of Investments.

The following tables summarize the value of the Funds’ derivative instruments held as of November 30, 2022 and the related location in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities, presented by primary underlying risk exposure:

Affiliated Cash Management Vehicles    The Funds may invest uninvested cash balances in DWS Government Money Market Series and DWS ESG Liquidity Fund, affiliated money market funds which are managed by DWS Investment Management Americas, Inc. (“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. The Advisor will waive an amount of the unitary advisory fee payable to the Advisor by the Funds equal to such acquired fund’s fees and expenses on the Funds’ assets invested in the affiliated money market funds.

3. Investment Advisory and Other Agreements

The Advisor has overall responsibility for the general management and administration of the Funds, subject to the supervision of the Funds’ Board of Trustees. 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.

Harvest Global Investments Limited serves as investment sub-Advisor (the “Sub-Advisor”) to the Xtrackers Harvest CSI 300 China A-Shares ETF and the Xtrackers Harvest CSI 500 China A-Shares Small Cap ETF. The Sub-Advisor is responsible for day-to-day management of each Fund, subject to supervision of the Advisor.

For its investment advisory services to the Funds below, the Advisor is 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:

In addition, the Advisor has contractually agreed, until September 30, 2023, to waive a portion of its unitary advisory fee to the extent necessary to prevent the operating expenses

(except for interest expense, taxes, brokerage expenses, distribution fees or expenses, litigation expenses and other extraordinary expenses) of the Fund from exceeding 0.50% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For the period ended November 30, 2022, the Advisor waived $13,996 of the expenses of the Fund which were attributable to the Fund’s investments in affiliated funds.

Out of the unitary advisory fee, the Advisor pays substantially all expenses of each Fund, including the cost of transfer agency, custody, fund administration, legal, audit and other services, and expenses of the Independent Trustees. Each Fund is responsible for the payment of interest expense, acquired fund fees and expenses, taxes, brokerage expenses, distribution fees or expenses, if any, litigation expenses and extraordinary expenses.

The Bank of New York Mellon, a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation, serves as Administrator, Custodian, Accounting Agent, Lending Agent and Transfer Agent for each Fund.

ALPS Distributors, Inc. (the “Distributor”) serves as the distributor of Creation Units for each Fund on an agency basis. The Distributor does not maintain a secondary market in shares of the Funds.

The Board of Trustees is currently comprised of three Independent Trustees. The Advisor paid retainer fees and attendance fees to each Independent Trustee; retainer fees to the Chairman of the Board of Trustees and Chairman of the Audit Committee; and attendance fees to each member of the Audit Committee (which is comprised of all of the Funds’ Independent Trustees).

4. Investment Portfolio Transactions

For the period ended November 30, 2022, the cost of investments purchased and proceeds from sale of investments (excluding in-kind transactions and short-term investments) were as follows:

5. Fund Share Transactions

As of November 30, 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 Xtrackers MSCI All China Equity ETF 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. The purchase of Creation Units for Xtrackers Harvest CSI 300 China A-Shares ETF, Xtrackers Harvest CSI 500 China A-Shares Small Cap ETF and Xtrackers MSCI China A Inclusion Equity ETF are generally issued in exchange for a specific amount of cash totaling the NAV of the Creation Units. 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. Concentration of Ownership

From time to time, Xtrackers MSCI China A Inclusion Equity ETF may have a concentration of several shareholders, including affiliated funds, holding a significant percentage of shares outstanding. Investment activities of these shareholders could have a material impact on the Fund. As of November 30, 2022, Xtrackers MSCI All China Equity ETF held 73% of the total shares outstanding of the Fund.

7. Investing in China

Investing in securities of Chinese issuers involves certain risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in securities of U.S. issuers, including, among others; more frequent (and potentially widespread) trading suspensions and government interventions with respect to Chinese issuers, resulting in lack of liquidity and in price volatility; currency revaluations and other currency exchange rate fluctuations or blockage; the nature and extent of intervention by the Chinese government in the Chinese securities markets (including both direct and indirect market stabilization efforts, which may affect valuations of Chinese issuers), whether such intervention will continue and the impact of such intervention or its discontinuation; the risk of nationalization or expropriation of assets; the risk that the Chinese government may decide not to continue to support economic reform programs; limitations on the use of brokers (or action by the Chinese government that discourages brokers from serving international clients); higher rates of inflation; greater political, economic and social uncertainty; higher market volatility caused by any potential regional territorial conflicts or natural disasters; the risk of increased trade tariffs, embargoes and other trade limitations; restrictions on foreign ownership which require US investors to invest in offshore special purpose companies to obtain indirect exposure to Chinese issuers; custody risks associated with investing through Stock Connect, an RQFII or other programs to access the Chinese securities markets, both interim and permanent market regulations which may affect the ability of certain stockholders to sell Chinese securities when it would otherwise be advisable; different and less stringent financial reporting standards; and increased political pressure from the US and other countries to restrict the ability of investors outside China to invest in Chinese issuers. In addition, in June 2021, the President of the United States issued an executive order (“CMIC Order”) prohibiting US persons, including the Funds, from purchasing or selling publicly traded securities (including publicly traded securities that are derivative of, or designed to provide exposure to, such securities) of any Chinese company identified as a “Chinese Military-Industrial Complex Company” (“CMIC”). This prohibition, effective August 2, 2021, expands on similar sanctions imposed by the prior administration on certain designated Chinese military companies (“CCMCs”) that took effect in January 2021. To the extent that any company in an Underlying Index is identified as a CMIC at any time (or was previously designed as a CCMC), it may have material adverse effect on a fund’s ability to track its Underlying Index.

8. Line of Credit

The Trust has entered into a senior unsecured credit facility with a syndication of banks which allows the Xtrackers Harvest CSI 300 China A-Shares ETF, Xtrackers Harvest CSI 500 China A-Shares Small Cap ETF, Xtrackers MSCI China A Inclusion Equity ETF and certain other funds managed by the Advisor to borrow up to $105 million. Each 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 each Funds’ status as a regulated investment company. Borrowings are charged an interest rate of 1.25% per annum plus the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus .10%. Each 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 Funds had no outstanding loans at November 30, 2022.

9. Other — COVID-19 Pandemic

A novel coronavirus known as COVID-19, declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization, which at times 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. 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.

This report is intended for the shareholders of DBX ETF Trust.

This report must be preceded or accompanied by a prospectus.

Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. Stocks may decline in value. 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. Funds investing in a single industry, country or in a limited geographic region generally are more volatile than more diversified funds. Special risks associated with investments in Chinese companies include exposure to currency fluctuations, less liquidity, less developed or less efficient trading markets, lack of comprehensive company information, political instability and differing auditing and legal standards, the nature and extent of intervention by the Chinese government in the Chinese securities markets, and the potential unavailability of A shares. Uncertainties in the Chinese tax rules governing taxation of income and gains from investments in A-shares could result in unexpected tax liabilities for the Funds which may reduce Fund returns. Any reduction or elimination of access to A-shares will have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Funds to achieve its investment objective. 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.

The U.S. government has imposed restrictions on the ability of U.S. investors to hold and/or acquire securities of certain Chinese companies. To the extent that an Underlying Index includes such a security and the Fund excludes it, the Fund’s tracking error may increase and the performance of the Fund and Underlying Index may diverge.

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. 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.
