To our Shareholders: (Unaudited)
Dear Shareholder,
We are pleased to provide this annual report for 7 of our currency-hedged equity ETFs for the period ended May 31, 2019.
Global growth slowed as a result of normalizing trends in larger developed economies monetary policy and ensuing trade tensions, specifically, the escalation in U.S.-China sanctions. In addition, macroeconomic stress in Argentina and Turkey and auto-sector downturn in Germany impacted growth. Despite slower growth reported by most major economies, a strong U.S. GDP anchored global expansion. Base level factors weighing on global expansion included political unrest in the euro area, debt fears in China and a slowdown in Japans industrial output. However, favorable job markets and net exports in the U.S. pulled the economy back to the same level as that in the beginning of the period. A slide in oil price affected trade, holding back the U.S. Dollars strength against global currencies.
Inflation in the U.S. was lower, yet hovered around target rates driven by corporate earnings and increased household income. GDP growth was similar to inflation, as it advanced at a moderate pace. Unemployment rates fell to favorable levels, partly benefiting from the retiring labor force. The longest shutdown in the history of the U.S. government did not have a material impact on production or markets. The Federal Reserve Board (FRB) adopted a wait-and-see approach and paused any shift in interest rates, and maintained this stance in its recent most update. U.S. equity markets witnessed a bull run, as tax cuts boosted private consumption, ultimately resulting in higher corporate profits.
The euro areas GDP tumbled through the year, due to macroeconomic stress, declining industrial output, and disruptions in prominent sectors like the auto industry. As a result, the European Central Bank (ECB) retained its accommodative, zero-interest-rate provision. Continued supply of liquidity from the ECB by means of reinvestment of maturing bonds comforted investors. Unemployment rates were at their lowest since the pre-financial crisis period, and as a result, consumer spending was on the rise as well. The euro areas trade surplus faced volatility but recovered to levels as of the start of the review cycle. The U.K.s economy sailed through a dark pool of economic prospects around the uncertainty over Brexit i implementation. Slower Chinese growth was the outcome of the severe trade war with the U.S., while its debt trap estimate continued to magnify. In the meantime, continued monetary stimulus had not resulted in a sustainable growth phase in Japan; however, real growth for Q1 2019 surpassed investor expectations, as imports slipped significantly higher than exports. In addition, both Asian countries, China and Japan continually represent the same risks to growth rising debt and ballooning investments. Equities in emerging markets are at lucrative valuations and shall provide investors opportunities in a diversified investment portfolio.
With no signal of inflationary pressures, central banks have the liberty and impulse to provide accommodation so that future growth is at comfortable levels. Almost all central banks have taken an accommodative stance at the end of the review period. Additionally, the FRB will cautiously weigh its decisions considering political uncertainty and trade war impacts in its efforts to prolong the expansionary phase. In view of an appreciating U.S. dollar, our currency-hedged strategy plays a significant role in managing investments in international equities.
Our team appreciates your trust and looks forward to serving your investment needs through innovative index-driven strategies.
Sincerely,
/s/ Freddi Klassen

The Underlying Index is designed to track the performance of equity securities in developed and emerging stock markets (excluding the United States), while mitigating exposure to fluctuations between the value of the U.S. dollar and the currencies of the countries included in the Underlying 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 investment management fees. Without such waiver, performance would have been lower. The estimated operating expense ratio as disclosed in the most recent prospectus dated September 28, 2018, was 0.40%, and may differ from the expense ratio disclosed in the Financial Highlights table in this report.
The Funds net asset value or NAV is calculated by dividing the value of the Funds 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 funds NAV is calculated. Since shares of a fund may not have traded in the secondary market until after the funds 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.

1 Total returns are calculated based on the commencement of operations, 12/10/14 (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 investment management fees. Without such waiver, performance would have been lower. The estimated operating expense ratio as disclosed in the most recent prospectus dated September 28, 2018, was 0.45%, and may differ from the expense ratio disclosed in the Financial Highlights table in this report.
The Funds net asset value or NAV is calculated by dividing the value of the Funds 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 funds NAV is calculated. Since shares of a fund may not have traded in the secondary market until after the funds 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.

DBX ETF Trust
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 management fees and other Fund expenses. In the most recent six-month period the Funds limted these expenses; had they not done so, expenses would have been higher. 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 (December 1, 2018 to May 31, 2019).
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.

Fair Value Measurements
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.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of May 31, 2019 in valuing the Funds investments. For information on the Funds 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 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.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of May 31, 2019 in valuing the Funds investments. For information on the Funds 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 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.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of May 31, 2019 in valuing the Funds investments. For information on the Funds policy regarding the valuation of investments, please refer to the Security Valuation section of Note 2 in the accompanying Notes to Financial Statements.

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.

Fair Value Measurements
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.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of May 31, 2019 in valuing the Funds investments. For information on the Funds 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 May 31, 2019, the Trust consists of thirty-seven 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 MSCI All World ex US Hedged Equity ETF |
Xtrackers MSCI Emerging Markets Hedged Equity ETF |
Xtrackers MSCI Europe Hedged Equity ETF |
Xtrackers MSCI Eurozone Hedged Equity ETF |
Xtrackers MSCI Germany Hedged Equity ETF |
Xtrackers MSCI Japan Hedged Equity ETF |
Xtrackers MSCI South Korea Hedged 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:
The MSCI ACWI ex USA US Dollar Hedged Index is designed to provide exposure to equity securities in developed and emerging stock markets (excluding the United States), while at the same time mitigating exposure to fluctuations between the value of the U.S. dollar and selected non-U.S. currencies.
The MSCI EM US Dollar Hedged Index is designed to provide exposure to equity securities in the global emerging markets, while at the same time mitigating exposure to fluctuations between the value of the U.S. dollar and selected emerging market currencies.
The MSCI Europe US Dollar Hedged Index is designed to provide exposure to equity securities in developed stock markets in Europe, while at the same time mitigating exposure to fluctuations between the value of the U.S. dollar and selected non-U.S. currencies.
The MSCI EMU US Dollar Hedged Index is designed to provide exposure to equity securities from countries in the European Monetary Union, while mitigating exposure to fluctuations between the value of the U.S. dollar and the euro.
The MSCI Germany US Dollar Hedged Index is designed to provide exposure to German equity markets, while at the same time mitigating exposure to fluctuations between the value of the U.S. dollar and the euro.
108
DBX ETF Trust
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
The MSCI Japan US Dollar Hedged Index is designed to provide exposure to Japanese equity markets, while at the same time mitigating exposure to fluctuations between the value of the U.S. dollar and Japanese yen.
The MSCI Korea 25/50 US Dollar Hedged Index is designed to provide exposure to the South Korean equity markets while at the same time mitigating exposure to fluctuations of the South Korean won and the U.S. dollar.
The MSCI Hedged Underlying Indices are rebalanced monthly on the last trading day of the month, when the index will take into account the effect of rolling into new 1-month forward contracts based on the newly determined weights of currency to be sold for the next months index calculation. The currency weights are determined as of the close of two business days before the first calendar day of the following month and remain constant intra month. This means that no changes in the weights are made during the month to account for changes in the indexes due to price movement of securities, corporate events, additions, deletions or any other changes. The daily calculation of MSCI Hedged Indices marks to market the one-month forward contracts on a daily basis by using an equal and offsetting forward position.
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, except Xtrackers MSCI All World ex US Hedged Equity ETF, Xtrackers MSCI Emerging Markets Hedged Equity ETF, Xtrackers MSCI Europe Hedged Equity ETF, Xtrackers MSCI Eurozone Hedged Equity ETF and Xtrackers MSCI Japan Hedged Equity 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. The securities of a particular issuer (or securities of issuers in particular industries) may dominate the Underlying Index of such a Fund and, consequently, the Funds investment portfolio. This may adversely affect the Funds performance or subject the Funds shares to greater price volatility than that experienced by more diversified investment companies.
Pursuant to the Trusts organizational documents, the Trusts 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 Trusts 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.
In October 2018, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted amendments to certain disclosure requirements in Securities Act Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, which is intended to facilitate the disclosure of information to investors and simplify compliance without significantly altering the total mix of information provided to investors. Effective with the current reporting period, the Funds adopted the amendments with the impacts being that the Funds are no longer required to present components of distributable earnings on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities or the sources of distributable earnings and the amount of undistributed net investment income on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.
Security Valuation The NAV of each Funds 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 Funds net assets by the number of Fund shares outstanding.
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
109
DBX ETF Trust
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
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 Level 1.
Forward currency contracts are valued at the prevailing forward exchange rate of the underlying currencies and are categorized as Level 2.
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 Board 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 securitys 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 companys or issuers 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 Funds NAV and the prices used by the Funds Underlying Index, which in turn could result in a difference between the Funds performance and the performance of the Funds Underlying Index.
Disclosure about the classification of the fair value measurements is included in a table following the Funds 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. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis.
Tax Information and Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders It is each Funds 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 semi-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
110
DBX ETF Trust
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
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 May 31, 2019, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
As of May 31, 2019, the components of accumulated earnings (losses) on a tax basis were as follows:

At May 31, 2019, 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.

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). Foreign taxes payable as of May 31, 2019, if any, are disclosed in the Funds Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
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 year 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 May 31, 2019, 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 (0.11% annualized effective rate as of May 31, 2019) on the cash collateral invested in DWS Government & Agency Securities Portfolio. The Funds receive compensation for lending its 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 May 31, 2019, the Funds listed below had securities on loan, which were classified as common stocks in the Schedule of Investments. The value of the related collateral exceeded the value of the securities loaned at year end.

Derivatives
Forward Foreign Currency Contracts Each Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts (forward currency contracts) designed to offset a Funds exposure to non-U.S. currencies. In addition, the Funds may enter into forward currency contracts and foreign currency futures contracts to facilitate local securities settlements or to protect against currency exposure in connection with distributions to shareholders.
A forward currency contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated forward rate. For the year ended May 31, 2019, The Xtrackers MSCI All World ex US Hedged Equity ETF, Xtrackers MSCI Emerging Markets Hedged Equity ETF, Xtrackers MSCI Europe Hedged Equity ETF and Xtrackers MSCI Eurozone Hedged Equity ETF invested in forward currency contracts to hedge against changes in the value of the U.S. dollar against specified non-U.S. currencies. Similarly, the Xtrackers MSCI Germany Hedged Equity ETF, Xtrackers MSCI Japan Hedged Equity ETF and Xtrackers MSCI South Korea Hedged Equity ETF each invested in forward currency contracts to hedge against changes in the value of the U.S. dollar against the euro, the Japanese yen and the South Korean won, respectively.
The gain or loss arising from the difference between the original contract and the closing of such contract would be included in net realized gain or loss on forward currency contracts. Risks may arise from the potential inability of a counterparty to meet the terms of a contract and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. The face or contract amount, in U.S. dollars reflects the total exposure the respective Fund has in that particular currency contract.
A summary of the open forward currency contracts as of May 31, 2019 is included in a table following the Funds Schedule of Investments. The investment in forward currency contracts short vs. U.S. dollars had a contract value generally indicative of a range of the total exposure the respective Fund had to the value of non U.S currencies during the year ended May 31, 2019.
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 year ended May 31, 2019, Xtrackers MSCI All World ex US Hedged Equity ETF, Xtrackers MSCI Emerging Markets Hedged Equity ETF, Xtrackers MSCI Europe Hedged Equity ETF, Xtrackers MSCI Eurozone Hedged Equity ETF, Xtrackers MSCI Germany Hedged Equity ETF, Xtrackers MSCI Japan Hedged Equity ETF and Xtrackers MSCI South Korea Hedged Equity ETF utilized futures in order to simulate investments 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
114
DBX ETF Trust
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
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 days settlement price, which could effectively prevent liquidation of unfavorable positions.
A summary of the open futures contracts as of May 31, 2019 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 May 31, 2019 and the related location in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities, presented by primary underlying risk exposure:

As of May 31, 2019, the Funds have transactions subject to enforceable master netting agreements which govern the terms of certain transactions, and reduce the counterparty risk associated with such transactions. Master netting agreements allow a Fund to close out and net total exposure to a counterparty in the event of a deterioration in the credit quality or contractual default with respect to all of the transactions with a counterparty. As defined by the master netting agreement, the Funds may have collateral agreements with certain counterparties to mitigate risk. Interest expense from collateral received, if any, is included in Other expenses on the Statements of Operations. For financial reporting purposes the Statement of Assets and Liabilities generally shows derivatives assets and liabilities on a gross basis, which reflects the full risks and exposures prior to netting. A reconciliation of the gross amounts on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities to the net amounts by counterparty, including any collateral exposure, is included in the following tables:

5. Fund Share Transactions
As of May 31, 2019, 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 Funds 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 MSCI South Korea Hedged 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. Investing in Emerging Markets
The securities of issuers located in emerging markets tend to be more volatile and less liquid than securities of issuers located in more mature economies, and emerging markets generally have less diverse and less mature economic structures and less stable political systems than those of developed countries. The securities of issuers located or doing substantial business in emerging markets are often subject to rapid and large changes in price.
7. Line of Credit
The Trust has entered into a senior unsecured credit facility with a syndication of banks which allows the Xtrackers MSCI All World ex US Hedged Equity ETF, Xtrackers MSCI Emerging Markets Hedged 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 one-month LIBOR Rate. Each Fund may borrow up to the lesser of a pro-rata share of the credit facility at the amounts listed below or 33 percent of its net assets as permitted by the Act. The Funds had no outstanding loans at May 31, 2019.

Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trusts 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.
121
DBX ETF Trust
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (Continued)
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 Trusts internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of the internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trusts internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
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 May 31, 2019, by correspondence with the custodians and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. 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.

After discussions at the meeting of the Board of Trustees (Board or Trustees) held on February 11-12, 2019 (the Meeting), the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees (those not affiliated with DBX ETF Trust (the Trust) or its service providers), unanimously approved the continuance of the Investment Advisory Agreement with respect to Xtrackers MSCI Emerging Markets Hedged Equity ETF, Xtrackers MSCI Germany Hedged Equity ETF, Xtrackers MSCI Japan Hedged Equity ETF, Xtrackers MSCI Europe Hedged Equity ETF, Xtrackers MSCI South Korea Hedged Equity ETF, Xtrackers MSCI All World ex-US Hedged Equity ETF, and Xtrackers MSCI Eurozone Hedged Equity ETF (each a Fund, and collectively, the Funds). The Independent Trustees were advised throughout the review and Meeting by K&L Gates LLP (Independent Trustee Counsel).
Before reaching their decision to approve the Investment Advisory Agreement for another annual period, the Independent Trustees evaluated the materials furnished to them in advance of the Meeting from DBX Advisors LLC (DBX or the Advisor) for purposes of reviewing the agreements terms and also took into consideration the discussions they had with management during the Meeting and among themselves during their Executive Sessions held on February 11 and February 12, 2019. The Independent Trustees also noted that they had received and should take into consideration a substantial amount of information furnished throughout the year at regular Board meetings, which information included, among other things, an analysis of each Funds investment performance and related financial information, presentations given by DBX, as well as its periodic reports on brokerage commissions, portfolio execution and other services provided to the Funds.
In reaching its decision to continue in effect the Investment Advisory Agreement for another annual period, the Board considered all factors it believed relevant, including (1) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds and their shareholders; (2) the financial resources of DBX and its resulting ability to perform its obligations under the Investment Advisory Agreement; (3) the competitiveness of the advisory fee; (4) the total cost of the services provided by and the profits realized by the Advisor from its relationship with the Funds; (5) the extent to which economies of scale have been realized, and if the Funds shareholders have benefitted from those economies; and (6) fall out benefits, if any, enjoyed by the Advisor.
The Board reached a determination, with the assistance of Dechert LLP (Trust Counsel) and through the exercise of its business judgment, that approval of the Investment Advisory Agreement and the compensation to be received thereunder is in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders as well as consistent with the Boards duties under state and federal law. The Board reached this conclusion based on multiple factors.
The Board considered the following in determining whether to approve the Investment Advisory Agreement:
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board reviewed in detail the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement. In doing so, the Board considered the information it had received from and the discussions it had with the Advisor continuously during the prior year, in addition to the information the Advisor had provided in response to the Boards requests prior to the Meeting. The Board considered that these services include, among other things, furnishing a continuous investment program for the Funds, including arranging for, or implementing, the purchase and sale of portfolio securities, the provision of general corporate services such as portfolio management compliance services and the preparation and filing of certain reports on behalf of the Trust. The Board also considered, among other things, the professional experience, qualifications and performance of the senior management and key professional personnel of the Advisor, including portfolio management.
The Board considered that the Advisor provides, at its own expense, office facilities and equipment for use by the Funds and supervisory persons responsible for supervising and monitoring the Trusts service providers. The Board also considered that the Advisor pays or arranges for the compensation of officers of the Trust who are also officers or employees of the Advisor or one of its Deutsche Bank affiliates, except as may otherwise be determined by the Board. In addition, the Board considered that the Advisor arranges for the provision of transfer

agency, custody, fund administration and accounting, and other non-distribution services necessary for the Funds operations. The Board also considered that in addition to managing the Funds portfolios directly, the Advisor provides oversight of day-to-day operations, including monitoring tracking error, providing services in connection with the creation and redemption of creation units and assistance in meeting legal, compliance and regulatory requirements applicable to the Funds. The Trustees took into consideration that tracking error for each Fund during the year was in an expected range.
Based on its review, the Board concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of services provided by the Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement are reasonable and appropriate in relation to the fees paid to the Advisor, taking special consideration of the fact that the advisory fee is a unitary fee and, as a result, a portion of the unitary advisory fee will be used to compensate the Funds service providers. The Board considered the staffing of the Advisor, including the training, qualifications and experience of investment personnel in managing the Funds. The Board also considered the expertise of the Advisor in supervising third party service providers to the Funds, such as the administrator and the custodian, noting the Advisors extensive work with these service providers (including onsite due diligence sessions) to conduct such supervision. The Board further considered the compliance program of the Advisor, which supports the Funds compliance program.
Advisors Financial Resources. In connection with the assessment of the ability of the Advisor to perform its duties under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Board considered the Advisors financial condition and whether it has the resources necessary to carry out its functions. The Board concluded that the Advisor has the financial resources necessary to perform its obligations under the Investment Advisory Agreement.
Reasonableness of Advisory Fee. The Board compared each Funds advisory fee to that of other pertinent exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and noted that each Funds fee is competitive with the fees of its respective peer group. The Board agreed that it was familiar with the Advisors methodology for selecting each Funds peer group and believed that the Funds peer groups were appropriate. The Board considered that the fee for each of the Funds is a unitary fee pursuant to which the Advisor pays all of the Funds costs (subject to certain specified exceptions). The Board also considered that each Funds portfolio is managed on a day-to-day basis by the Advisor and that the Advisor also provides oversight of day-to-day operations, including monitoring tracking error, providing services in connection with creation and redemption units and assistance in meeting legal and regulatory requirements applicable to the Funds. Based on its review, the Board concluded that the advisory fee for each Fund is reasonable in light of the services provided.
Costs of Services and Profitability. The Board considered the expenses of the Advisor in developing and rendering services provided to the Funds and the information provided by the Advisor to the Board regarding the Funds profitability. The Board considered that the Advisor had provided extensive information about the Advisors profitability and the Advisors methodology in determining profitability. While the Advisor had provided information about the Advisors expenses relating to marketing the Funds, the Board considered the Advisors profitability without accounting for such expenses. The Board determined that, although only some of the Funds were profitable as of this time, the Advisors profitability with respect to each profitable Fund was not excessive. The Board considered whether the Advisor would benefit in other ways from its relationships with the Funds and concluded that there were no material fall-out benefits likely to accrue to the Advisor related to the operation of the Funds.
Economies of Scale. The Board considered that certain Funds had attracted a substantial amount of assets, but determined that those Funds were not experiencing economies of scale beyond what was reflected in each Funds unitary fee, which the Board noted was very competitive. The Board considered that the other Funds were not experiencing economies of scale at this time and determined to revisit this matter after the Funds had attracted more assets.
Given all the information available to it and considering all material factors, the Board concluded that the Investment Advisory Agreement was fair and reasonable and it was unanimously approved.

Investing involves risk, including the 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. Emerging markets tend to be more volatile and less liquid than the markets of more mature economies, and generally have less diverse and less mature economic structures and less stable political systems than those of developed countries. The Funds use of forward currency contracts may not be successful in hedging currency exchange rates changes and could eliminate some or all of the benefit of an increase in the value of a foreign currency versus the U.S. dollar. Funds investing in a single industry, country or in a limited geographic region generally are more volatile than more diversified funds. Investing in derivatives entails special risks relating to liquidity, leverage and credit that may reduce returns and/or increase volatility. Each Fund, except Xtrackers MSCI All World ex US Hedged Equity ETF, Xtrackers MSCI Emerging Markets Hedged Equity ETF, Xtrackers MSCI Europe Hedged Equity ETF, Xtrackers MSCI Eurozone Hedged Equity ETF and Xtrackers MSCI Japan Hedged Equity ETF, is non-diversified and can take larger positions in fewer issues, increasing each Funds 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.

To our Shareholders: (Unaudited)
Dear Shareholder,
We are pleased to provide this annual report for the period ended May 31, 2019.
The global economy experienced sluggish growth over the reporting period due to the ongoing trade tensions between the U.S. and China, auto downturns in Germany, financial deleveraging in China, and geopolitical uncertainty across regions. Economic growth was upbeat in the U.S., supported by net exports, strong private consumption and low unemployment rates. On the downside, the Eurozone witnessed a slowdown in growth as a consequence of falling consumer sentiment, weaker manufacturing sector, and fears of higher auto tariffs on the back of concerns around trade war. Elsewhere, Chinas economic growth slowed down because of the focus on financial deleveraging and efforts to transition to an ingrown economy. Furthermore, the U.S. Federal Reserve Board signaled that there would be no further interest rate hikes for the year owing to the headwinds faced by the economy.
In the Eurozone, the slowdown in aggregate growth over the reporting period was worsened by auto downturns and jitters due to European elections. As a result, the European Central Bank (ECB) continued its accommodative monetary stance, with inflation being well under target levels. The ECB is expected to keep interest rates unchanged, at least through the first half of 2020. The United Kingdoms economic growth was moderate over the reporting period, backed by government consumption and fixed investments, although the uncertainties around Brexit 1 continue to hinder consumer confidence. Strong domestic demand and fixed investments aided a rebound in economic growth in Germany earlier this year after facing sluggish growth late last year, impacted by the slowdown in the auto sector. Meanwhile, France witnessed stable growth over the reporting period, backed by strong growth in exports and fiscal measures invoked to tackle the impact of the gilet jaunes protests, which erupted late last year.
Across the Pacific, the Japanese economy faced moderate growth over the reporting period, starting the year with positive growth, although this was entirely driven by a sharp contraction in imports, while both domestic demand and exports deteriorated. Consumer confidence in Japan dipped on the back of rising trade tensions between the U.S. and China. Weaker global demand for exports and trade negotiations between the U.S. and Japan, with the U.S. leveraging pressure using tariffs on Japanese car imports, made things worse. Growth in Australia was moderate over the reporting period, backed by strong exports, wage growth, and sustained business investments. A surprise victory, contrary to pre-election opinion polls, resulted in an absolute majority for the Liberal-National coalition. The partys strong ground on economic management and improvement reinforced market sentiment, as evidenced by the stock markets multi-year highs. The housing market fell to its worst levels earlier this year, as prices continued to decline albeit at a slower rate.
The global economy continues to face downside risks due to trade frictions, Brexit negotiations, and uncertainty about the stability of Germanys coalition government. Europes export-driven economies have already shown signs of slowing. Major central banks are expected to maintain a dovish stance and avoid further interest rate hikes owing to the weak economic backdrop. With low inflationary pressure, central banks have the freedom to leverage monetary and fiscal policies that can ensure growth is at a comfortable level in the future. That said, growth momentum is expected to be slightly slower in the U.S., Eurozone and China but compensated by notable growth in the emerging markets in the near future.
Our team appreciates your trust and looks forward to serving your investment needs through innovative index-driven strategies.
Sincerely,
/s/ Freddi Klassen

DBX ETF Trust
Xtrackers MSCI EAFE Hedged Equity ETF
The Xtrackers MSCI EAFE Hedged Equity ETF (DBEF) seeks investment results that correspond generally to the performance, before fees and expenses, of the MSCI EAFE US Dollar Hedged Index (the DBEF Index). The DBEF Index is designed to provide exposure to equity securities in developed international stock markets while at the same time mitigating exposure to fluctuation between the value of the U.S. dollar and select non-U.S. currencies. For the 12-month period ended May 31, 2019, DBEF returned -0.14%, compared to the DBEF Index return of 0.14%.
The majority of sectors contributed negatively to performance during the period with the greatest negative contributions coming from Financials, Consumer Discretionary and Industrials. The Consumer Staples, Utilities and Health Care sectors contributed positively to performance. From a geographical perspective, Switzerland, Australia and New Zealand were the major positive contributors, while Japan, Germany and United Kingdom contributed negatively to performance. The Fund entered into forward foreign currency contracts during the period to hedge against changes in the value of the U.S. dollar against specified non-U.S. currencies. The currency hedging strategy contributed positively to performance.

The Xtrackers MSCI EAFE Hedged Equity 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 MSCI EAFE US Dollar Hedged Index (the Underlying Index). The Underlying Index is designed to track developed market performance while mitigating exposure to fluctuations between the value of the U.S. dollar and the currencies of the countries included in the Underlying Index. The MSCI EAFE Index includes large and mid capitalization securities across developed markets in Europe, Australasia and the Far East. It is not possible to invest directly into an index.
Performance as of 5/31/19 |
1 Total returns are calculated based on the commencement of operations, 6/9/11 (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 investment management fees. Without such waiver, performance would have been lower. The estimated operating expense ratio as disclosed in the most recent prospectus dated September 28, 2018, was 0.35%, and may differ from the expense ratio disclosed in the Financial Highlights table in this report.
The Funds net asset value or NAV is calculated by dividing the value of the Funds 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 funds NAV is calculated. Since shares of a fund may not have traded in the secondary market until after the funds 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.

DBX ETF Trust
As a shareholder of the Fund, 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 management fees and other Fund expenses. In the most resent six-month period the Fund limited these expenses; had it not done so, expenses would have been higher. The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund 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 (December 1, 2018 to May 31, 2019).
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.

Fair Value Measurements
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.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of May 31, 2019 in valuing the Funds investments. For information on the Funds 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 May 31, 2019, the Trust consists of thirty-seven investment series of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in operation and trading. These financial statements report on Xtrackers MSCI EAFE Hedged Equity ETF (the Fund), a diversified series of the Trust.
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 Fund and has overall responsibility for the general management and administration of the Fund, subject to the supervision of the Funds Board of Trustees (Board).
The Fund offers shares that are listed and traded on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (NYSE Arca). Unlike conventional mutual funds, the Fund issues and redeems shares on a continuous basis, at net asset value (NAV), only in large specified lots consisting of 200,000 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 Fund, and owners of shares may acquire those shares from the Fund or tender such shares for redemption to the Fund, in Creation Units only.
The investment objective of the Fund is to track the performance, before fees and expenses, of the MSCI EAFE US Dollar Hedged Index (the Underlying Index).
MSCI is the creator of the MSCI EAFE US Dollar Hedged Index. The MSCI EAFE US Dollar Hedged Index is designed to provide exposure to equity securities in developed international stock markets, while at the same time mitigating exposure to fluctuations between the value of the U.S. dollar and selected non-U.S. currencies.
The Underlying Index is rebalanced monthly on the last trading day of the month, when the index will take into account the effect of rolling into new 1-month forward contracts based on the newly determined weights of currency to be sold for the next months index calculation. The currency weights are determined as of the close of two business days before the first calendar day of following month and remain constant intra month. This means that no changes in the weights are made during the month to account for changes in the indexes due to price movement of securities, corporate events, additions, deletions or any other changes. The daily calculation of the Underlying Index marks to market the one-month forward contracts on a daily basis by using an equal and offsetting forward position.
The Fund is entitled to use its Underlying Index pursuant to a licensing agreement between the Index Provider and DBX. There is no charge to the Fund in connection with the licensing agreement.
Pursuant to the Trusts organizational documents, the Trusts officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. 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 Trusts maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund 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. The 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 Fund.
In October 2018, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted amendments to certain disclosure requirements in Securities Act Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, which is intended to facilitate the disclosure of information to investors and simplify compliance without significantly altering the total mix of information provided to investors. Effective with the current reporting period, the Fund adopted the
26
DBX ETF Trust
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
amendments with the impacts being that the Fund is no longer required to present components of distributable earnings on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities or the sources of distributable earnings and the amount of undistributed net investment income on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.
Security Valuation The NAV of the Funds 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 Funds net assets by the number of Fund shares outstanding.
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 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 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 are generally categorized as Level 1.
Investments in open-ended investment companies are valued at their NAV each business day and are categorized as Level 1.
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.
Forward currency contracts are valued at the prevailing forward exchange rate of the underlying currencies and are categorized as Level 2.
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 Board 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 securitys 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 companys or issuers 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 the Funds NAV and the prices used by the Funds Underlying Index, which in turn could result in a difference between the Funds performance and the performance of the Funds Underlying Index.
Disclosure about the classification of the fair value measurements is included in a table following the Funds 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. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis.
Tax Information and Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders It is the Funds policy to comply with all requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). The Fund intends to qualify for and
27
DBX ETF Trust
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
to elect treatment as a separate Regulated Investment Company (RIC) under Subchapter M of the Code. It is the policy of the Fund to pay out dividends from its net investment income, if any, to investors semi-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 Fund may occasionally be required to make supplemental distributions at some other time during the year. The Fund reserves the right to declare special distributions if, in their reasonable discretion, such action is necessary or advisable to preserve the status of the 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 Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense on the Statement of Operations. For the year ended May 31, 2019, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties.
As of May 31, 2019, the components of accumulated earnings (losses) on a tax basis were as follows:

Other Gains (Losses) |

The tax character of dividends and distributions declared for the years ended May 31, 2019 and May 31, 2018 were as follows:

At May 31, 2019, for Federal income tax purposes, the Fund had 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 capital loss carryforwards are used to offset future capital gains, it is probable that the capital gains so offset will not be distributed to shareholders.

$ | 47,997,241 | $ | 86,149,726 | $ | 134,146,967 |
For the fiscal year ended May 31, 2019, the effect of permanent book/tax reclassifications to the components of net assets are included below. These differences are primarily due to recognition of certain foreign currency gain (losses) as ordinary income (loss), passive foreign investment companies (PFICs), redemptions-in-kind and partnership investments.

Foreign Taxes The Fund 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 Fund invests. These foreign taxes, if any, are paid by the Fund and are reflected in their Statement 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. Foreign taxes payable as of May 31, 2019, if any, are disclosed in the Funds Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Foreign Currency Translations The books and records of the Fund is 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 year 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 Fund may lend securities to certain financial institutions under the terms of its securities lending agreement. During the term of the loans, the Fund continues to receive interest and dividends generated by the securities and to participate in any changes in their market value. The Fund requires the borrowers of the securities to maintain collateral with the Fund 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 May 31, 2019, the Fund 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 (0.11% annualized effective rate as of May 31, 2019) on the cash collateral invested in DWS Government & Agency Securities Portfolio. The Fund receives compensation for lending its 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 Fund is not able to recover securities lent, the Fund 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 Fund is 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 May 31, 2019, the Fund had securities on loan, which were classified as Common Stock in the Schedule of Investments. The value of the related collateral exceeded the value of the securities loaned at year end.

Forward Foreign Currency Contracts The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts (forward currency contracts) designed to offset the Funds exposure to non-U.S. currencies. In addition, the Fund may enter into forward currency contracts to facilitate local securities settlements or to protect against currency exposure in connection with distributions to Shareholders.
A forward currency contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated forward rate. For the year ended May 31, 2019, the Fund invested in forward currency contracts to hedge against changes in the value of the U.S. dollar against specified non-U.S. currencies.
The gain or loss arising from the difference between the original contract and the closing of such contract would be included in net realized gain or loss on forward currency contracts. Risks may arise from the potential inability of a counterparty to meet the terms of a contract and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. The face or contract amount, in U.S. dollars reflects the total exposure the Fund has in that particular currency contract.
A summary of the open forward currency contracts as of May 31, 2019 is included in a table following the Funds Schedule of Investments. The investment in forward currency contracts short vs. U.S. dollars had a contract value generally indicative of a range of the total exposure the Fund had to the value of non U.S currencies during the year ended May 31, 2019.
Futures Contracts The 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. The Fund will enter into futures contracts that are traded on a U.S. or non-U.S. exchange. The Fund will not 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 year ended May 31, 2019, the Fund 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 the Fund enters into a futures contract, the 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, the 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 the 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 the 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 the 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 days settlement price, which could effectively prevent liquidation of unfavorable positions.
A summary of the open futures contracts as of May 31, 2019 is included in a table following the Funds Schedule of Investments.

As of May 31, 2019, the Fund has transactions subject to enforceable master netting agreements which govern the terms of certain transactions, and reduce the counterparty risk associated with such transactions. Master netting agreements allow a Fund to close out and net total exposure to a counterparty in the event of a deterioration in the credit quality or contractual default with respect to all of the transactions with a counterparty. As defined by the master netting agreement, the Fund may have collateral agreements with certain counterparties to mitigate risk. Interest expense from collateral received, if any, is included in Other expenses on the Statement of Operations. For financial reporting purposes the Statement of Assets and Liabilities generally shows derivatives assets and liabilities on a gross basis, which reflects the full risks and exposures prior to netting.

Affiliated Cash Management Vehicles The Fund 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 Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of each affiliated money market fund in which it invests. To the extent that the affiliated money market funds pay an investment management fee to DIMA, the Advisor will waive an amount of the unitary management fee payable to the Advisor by the Fund equal to the amount of the unitary management fee payable 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 Fund, subject to the supervision of the Funds Board of Trustees. Under an investment advisory agreement between the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, 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 Fund to operate.
For its investment advisory services to the Fund, the Advisor is entitled to receive a unitary management fee from the Fund based on the Funds average daily net assets, computed and accrued daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate equal to 0.35%.
The Advisor for the Fund has contractually agreed to waive a portion of its management fees in an amount equal to the acquired funds fees and expenses attributable to the Funds investments in affiliated cash management vehicles. For the period from June 1, 2018 through May 31, 2019, the Advisor waived $42,460 of expenses to the Fund.
Out of the unitary management fee, the Advisor pays substantially all expenses of the Fund, including the cost of transfer agency, custody, fund administration, legal, audit and other services, and expenses of the Independent Trustees. The Fund is responsible for the payment of interest expense, taxes, brokerage expenses, distribution fees or expenses, if any, litigation expenses and extraordinary expenses.

ALPS Distributors, Inc. (the Distributor) serves as the distributor of Creation Units for the Fund on an agency basis. The Distributor does not maintain a secondary market in shares of the Fund.
The Board of Trustees is currently comprised of four Trustees, including 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).

5. Fund Share Transactions
As of May 31, 2019, there were unlimited Fund shares, no par value, authorized by the Trust. Fund shares are issued and redeemed by the Fund only in Creation Units or multiples thereof. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares of the Fund are not redeemable. Transactions in capital shares for the Fund are disclosed in detail in the Statement 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 Funds 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.

Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Xtrackers MSCI EAFE Hedged Equity ETF (the Fund), (one of the funds constituting DBX ETF Trust (the Trust)), including the schedule of investments, as of May 31, 2019, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund (one of the funds constituting DBX ETF Trust) at May 31, 2019, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. general accepted accounting principles.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trusts 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 Trusts internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of the internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trusts internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
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 May 31, 2019, by correspondence with the custodians and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. 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
Xtrackers MSCI EAFE Hedged Equity ETF
After discussions at the meeting of the Board of Trustees (Board or Trustees) held on February 11-12, 2019 (the Meeting), the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees (those not affiliated with DBX ETF Trust (the Trust) or its service providers), unanimously approved the continuance of the Investment Advisory Agreement with respect to Xtrackers MSCI EAFE Hedged Equity ETF (the Fund). The Independent Trustees were advised throughout the review and Meeting by K&L Gates LLP (Independent Trustee Counsel).
Before reaching their decision to approve the Investment Advisory Agreement for another annual period, the Independent Trustees evaluated the materials furnished to them in advance of the Meeting from DBX Advisors LLC (DBX or the Advisor) for purposes of reviewing the agreements terms and also took into consideration the discussions they had with management during the Meeting and among themselves during their Executive Sessions held on February 11 and February 12, 2019. The Independent Trustees also noted that they had received and should take into consideration a substantial amount of information furnished throughout the year at regular Board meetings, which information included, among other things, an analysis of the Funds investment performance and related financial information, presentations given by DBX, as well as its periodic reports on brokerage commissions, portfolio execution and other services provided to the Fund.
In reaching its decision to continue in effect the Investment Advisory Agreement for another annual period, the Board considered all factors it believed relevant, including (1) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund and its shareholders; (2) the financial resources of DBX and its resulting ability to perform its obligations under the Investment Advisory Agreement; (3) the competitiveness of the advisory fee; (4) the total cost of the services provided by and the profits realized by the Advisor from its relationship with the Fund; (5) the extent to which economies of scale have been realized, and if the Funds shareholders have benefitted from those economies; and (6) fall out benefits, if any, enjoyed by the Advisor.
The Board reached a determination, with the assistance of Dechert LLP (Trust Counsel) and through the exercise of its business judgment, that approval of the Investment Advisory Agreement and the compensation to be received thereunder is in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders as well as consistent with the Boards duties under state and federal law. The Board reached this conclusion based on multiple factors.
The Board considered the following in determining whether to approve the Investment Advisory Agreement:
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board reviewed in detail the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement. In doing so, the Board considered the information it had received from and the discussions it had with the Advisor continuously during the prior year, in addition to the information the Advisor had provided in response to the Boards requests prior to the Meeting. The Board considered that these services include, among other things, furnishing a continuous investment program for the Fund, including arranging for, or implementing, the purchase and sale of portfolio securities, the provision of general corporate services such as portfolio management compliance services and the preparation and filing of certain reports on behalf of the Trust. The Board also considered, among other things, the professional experience, qualifications and performance of the senior management and key professional personnel of the Advisor, including portfolio management.
The Board considered that the Advisor provides, at its own expense, office facilities and equipment for use by the Fund and supervisory persons responsible for supervising and monitoring the Trusts service providers. The Board also considered that the Advisor pays or arranges for the compensation of officers of the Trust who are also officers or employees of the Advisor or one of its Deutsche Bank affiliates, except as may otherwise be determined by the Board. In addition, the Board considered that the Advisor arranges for the provision of transfer agency, custody, fund administration and accounting, and other non-distribution services necessary for the Funds operations. The Board also considered that in addition to managing the Funds portfolios directly, the Advisor provides oversight of day-to-day operations, including monitoring tracking error, providing services in connection with the creation and redemption of creation units and assistance in meeting legal, compliance and regulatory requirements applicable to the Fund. The Trustees took into consideration that tracking error for the Fund during the year was in an expected range.

DBX ETF Trust
Board Considerations in Approval of Investment Advisory Contract (Unaudited) (Continued)
Based on its review, the Board concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of services provided by the Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement are reasonable and appropriate in relation to the fees paid to the Advisor, taking special consideration of the fact that the advisory fee is a unitary fee and, as a result, a portion of the unitary advisory fee will be used to compensate the Funds service providers. The Board considered the staffing of the Advisor, including the training, qualifications and experience of investment personnel in managing the Fund. The Board also considered the expertise of the Advisor in supervising third party service providers to the Fund, such as the administrator and the custodian, noting the Advisors extensive work with these service providers (including onsite due diligence sessions) to conduct such supervision. The Board further considered the compliance program of the Advisor, which supports the Funds compliance program.
Advisors Financial Resources. In connection with the assessment of the ability of the Advisor to perform its duties under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Board considered the Advisors financial condition and whether it has the resources necessary to carry out its functions. The Board concluded that the Advisor has the financial resources necessary to perform its obligations under the Investment Advisory Agreement.
Reasonableness of Advisory Fee. The Board compared the Funds advisory fee to that of other pertinent exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and noted that the Funds fee is competitive with the fees of its respective peer group. The Board agreed that it was familiar with the Advisors methodology for selecting the Funds peer group and believed that the Funds peer group was appropriate. The Board considered that the fee for the Fund is a unitary fee pursuant to which the Advisor pays all of the Funds costs (subject to certain specified exceptions). The Board also considered that the Funds portfolio is managed on a day-to-day basis by the Advisor and that the Advisor also provides oversight of day-to-day operations, including monitoring tracking error, providing services in connection with creation and redemption units and assistance in meeting legal and regulatory requirements applicable to the Fund. Based on its review, the Board concluded that the advisory fee for the Fund is reasonable in light of the services provided.
Costs of Services and Profitability. The Board considered the expenses of the Advisor in developing and rendering services provided to the Fund and the information provided by the Advisor to the Board regarding the Funds profitability. The Board considered that the Advisor had provided extensive information about the Advisors profitability and the Advisors methodology in determining profitability. While the Advisor had provided information about the Advisors expenses relating to marketing the Fund, the Board considered the Advisors profitability without accounting for such expenses. The Board determined that, although the Fund was profitable as of this time, the Advisors profitability with respect to the Fund was not excessive. The Board considered whether the Advisor would benefit in other ways from its relationships with the Fund and concluded that there were no material fall-out benefits likely to accrue to the Advisor related to the operation of the Fund.
Economies of Scale. The Board considered that the Fund had attracted a substantial amount of assets, but determined that the Fund was not experiencing economies of scale beyond what was reflected in the Funds unitary fee, which the Board noted was very competitive. The Board determined to revisit this matter after the Fund had attracted more assets.
Given all the information available to it and considering all material factors, the Board concluded that the Investment Advisory Agreement was fair and reasonable and it was unanimously approved.

Investing involves risk, including the 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. The Funds use of forward currency contracts may not be successful in hedging currency exchange rates changes and could eliminate some or all of the benefit of an increase in the value of a foreign currency versus the U.S. dollar. Funds investing in a single industry, country or in a limited geographic region generally are more volatile than more diversified funds. Investing in derivatives entails special risks relating to liquidity, leverage and credit that may reduce returns and/or increase volatility. Performance of the Fund 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 the Fund should be considered only as a supplement to a complete investment program for those investors willing to accept the risks associated with the fund. Please read the prospectus for more information.

To our Shareholders: (Unaudited)
Dear Shareholder,
We are pleased to provide this annual report for our ETFs tracking the fixed income market for the period ended May 31, 2019.
The global economy experienced a synchronized slowdown during the reporting period due to rising trade tensions between the U.S. and China, macroeconomic stress in Argentina and Turkey, and downturn in the auto sector in Germany. However, the slowdown was partly offset by the resilience in domestic demand owing to robust labor market conditions. The U.S. economy remained on a firm footing, underpinned by strong private consumption and low unemployment rates. In contrast, the Eurozone posted weak growth owing to a slight drag from net exports and fears of higher auto tariffs if the trade war escalates. The Chinese economy also witnessed a negative impact, and authorities are now considering unconventional methods to achieve growth targets.
Amid a global growth slowdown, major central banks have shifted their perspectives, with the most significant institutions turning dovish. The Federal Reserve Board (FRB) paused interest rates and signaled no increases for the rest of the year as the economy faces headwinds in 2019. The FRB is also likely to be patient and data-dependent. Its more accommodative stance and incoming robust U.S. macroeconomic data have supported U.S. equities, following a deep sell-off in December. Furthermore, yields on U.S. 10-year Treasuries fell to their lowest levels since 2017, while yields on German 10-year bunds turned negative for the first time since 2016.
Conversely, Europes manufacturing-focused economy became more vulnerable to a global slowdown compared with the U.S. That said, the European Central Banks monetary stance remained accommodative, with the reinvestment of maturing assets from its bond-purchase program and keeping open-end supply in liquidity to banks through the full allotment procedure. The dovish stance of the Bank of England amid the fog of Brexit 1 indicates that slower economic growth looks set to keep U.K. rates on hold. Elsewhere, the Bank of Japan in its monetary policy meeting decided to retain its current monetary easing framework to keep the yield curve under control and unanimously sustain guidelines on asset purchases other than Japanese government bonds. In light of global headwinds and low inflation, the upward pressure on bond yields has eased, along with a pro-cyclical fiscal boost, and still-accommodative monetary conditions. Solid fundamentals are also likely to buy time for the FRB to see whether its outlook for a transitory slowdown in inflation proves accurate.
Moreover, a slowdown in the European auto sector, driven by weak demand from its biggest market, China, and binary risks of the Brexit outcome and possible auto import tariffs by the U.S. could be key downside risks. Given growth concerns, policymakers remain committed to support the economy, focusing on targeted measures to increase liquidity and reduce bank lending costs. However, in light of increased uncertainties globally and muted inflation pressures, central banks will closely watch the implications of economic outlook and will act accordingly to sustain the expansion. Given the economic backdrop of an uncertain environment, hedging interest rate exposure would play a significant role in managing investments in fixed income markets.
Our team appreciates your trust and looks forward to serving your investment needs through innovative index-driven strategies.
Sincerely,
/s/ Freddi Klassen

Xtrackers Emerging Markets Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF (EMIH)

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 investment management fees. Without such waiver, performance would have been lower. The estimated operating expense ratio as disclosed in the most recent prospectus dated September 28, 2018, was 0.45%, and may differ from the expense ratio disclosed in the Financial Highlights table in this report.
The Funds net asset value or NAV is calculated by dividing the value of the Funds 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 funds NAV is calculated. Since shares of a fund may not have traded in the secondary market until after the funds 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.

The Funds net asset value or NAV is calculated by dividing the value of the Funds 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 funds NAV is calculated. Since shares of a fund may not have traded in the secondary market until after the funds 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.

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 management fees and other Fund expenses. In addition to the ongoing expenses which each Fund bears directly, the Xtrackers High Yield Corporate Bond Interest Rate Hedged 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 High Yield Corporate Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF invests. In the most recent six-month period the Funds limited these expenses; had they not done so, expenses would have been higher. 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 (December 1, 2018 to May 31, 2019).
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.

(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.

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.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of May 31, 2019 in valuing the Funds investments. For information on the Funds 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 May 31, 2019, the Trust consists of thirty-seven 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 Emerging Markets Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF |
Xtrackers High Yield Corporate Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF |
Xtrackers Investment Grade Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF |
Xtrackers Municipal Infrastructure Revenue Bond ETF |
Xtrackers MSCI All World ex US High Dividend Yield Equity ETF |
Xtrackers MSCI EAFE High Dividend Yield Equity ETF |
Xtrackers High Yield Corporate Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF invests in affiliated exchange-traded funds managed by DBX Advisors LLC (DBX or the Advisor). The accounting policies and investments holdings are outlined in the affiliated Funds financial statements and are available upon request.
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).
Xtrackers Emerging Markets Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF, Xtrackers High Yield Corporate Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF and Xtrackers Investment Grade Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF offer shares that are listed and traded on the Cboe Bats BZX Exchange. Inc. (Cboe). Xtrackers Municipal Infrastructure Revenue Bond ETF, Xtrackers MSCI All World ex US High Dividend Yield Equity ETF and Xtrackers MSCI EAFE High Dividend Yield Equity ETF offer 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:
Fund |
Underlying Index |
|
Xtrackers Emerging Markets Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF | Solactive Emerging Markets Bond Interest Rate Hedged Index | |
Xtrackers High Yield Corporate Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF | Solactive High Yield Corporate Bond Interest Rate Hedged Index | |
Xtrackers Investment Grade Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF | Solactive Investment Grade Bond Interest Rate Hedged Index | |
Xtrackers Municipal Infrastructure Revenue Bond ETF | Solactive Municipal Infrastructure Revenue Bond Index | |
Xtrackers MSCI All World ex US High Dividend Yield Equity ETF | MSCI ACWI ex USA High Dividend Yield Index | |
Xtrackers MSCI EAFE High Dividend Yield Equity ETF | MSCI EAFE High Dividend Yield Index |
The Solactive Emerging Markets Bond-Interest Rate Hedged Index is designed to track the performance of a basket of U.S. dollar-denominated emerging markets bonds. The Underlying Index is comprised of (a) long positions in U.S. dollar-denominated government debt issued by emerging market countries and (b) short positions in U.S. Treasury notes or bonds of, in aggregate, approximate equivalent duration to the emerging markets bonds. The Solactive High Yield Corporate Bond-Interest Rate Hedged Index is designed to track the performance of a basket of U.S. dollar-denominated high yield liquid corporate bonds. The Underlying Index is comprised of (a) long positions in U.S. dollar-denominated high yield corporate bonds and (b) short positions in U.S. Treasury notes or bonds of, in aggregate, approximate equivalent duration to the high yield bonds. The Solactive Investment Grade Bond-Interest Rate Hedged Index is designed to track the performance of a basket of U.S. dollar-denominated investment grade liquid corporate bonds. The Underlying Index is comprised of (a) long

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
positions in U.S. dollar-denominated investment-grade corporate bonds and (b) short positions in U.S. Treasury notes or bonds of, in aggregate, approximate equivalent duration to the investment-grade corporate bonds. The Solactive Municipal Infrastructure Revenue Bond Index is designed to track the returns of the segment of the U.S. long term tax-exempt bond market, consisting of infrastructure revenue bonds. It is comprised of tax-exempt municipal securities issued by states, cities, counties, districts, their respective agencies and other tax-exempt issuers. The Underlying Index is intended to track bonds that have been issued with the intention of funding federal, state and local infrastructure projects such as water and sewer systems, public power systems, toll roads, bridges, tunnels and many other public use projects. It is designed to only hold bonds issued by state and local municipalities where the interest and principal repayments are generated from dedicated revenue streams or a double-barreled revenue stream (pledged revenue stream and a general obligation pledge). The Solactive Indices are rebalanced monthly on the last business day of each month.
The MSCI ACWI ex USA High Dividend Yield Index is designed to track the performance of equity securities (excluding real estate investment trusts (REITs)) in developed and emerging stock markets (excluding the United States) in its parent index, the MSCI ACWI ex US Index, with higher dividend income and quality characteristics than average dividend yields of equities in the parent index, where such higher dividend income and quality characteristics are both sustainable and persistent. The MSCI EAFE High Dividend Yield Index is designed to reflect the performance of equities (excluding REITs) in developed markets in its parent index, the MSCI EAFE Index, with higher dividend income and quality characteristics than average dividend yields of equities in the parent index, where such higher dividend income and quality characteristics are both sustainable and persistent. The MSCI High Dividend Yield Indices are rebalanced semi-annually in May and November.
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.
Xtrackers Emerging Markets Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF, Xtrackers Investment Grade Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF and Xtrackers MSCI All World ex US High Dividend Yield Equity ETF are diversified series of the Trust. Xtrackers High Yield Corporate Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF, Xtrackers Municipal Infrastructure Revenue Bond ETF and Xtrackers MSCI EAFE High Dividend Yield Equity ETF are non-diversified and are not limited by the Act with regard to the percentage of its assets that may be invested in the securities of a single issuer. The securities of a particular issuer (or securities of issuers in particular industries) may dominate the Underlying Index of such a Fund and, consequently, the Funds investment portfolio. This may adversely affect the Funds performance or subject the Funds shares to greater price volatility than that experienced by more diversified investment companies.
Pursuant to the Trusts organizational documents, the Trusts 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 Trusts 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.
In October 2018, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted amendments to certain disclosure requirements in Securities Act Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, which is intended to facilitate the disclosure of information to investors and simplify compliance without significantly altering the total mix of information provided to investors. Effective with the current reporting period, the Funds adopted the amendments with the impacts being that the Funds are no longer required to present components of distributable earnings on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities or the sources of distributable earnings and the amount of undistributed net investment income on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.

DBX ETF Trust
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
Security Valuation The NAV of each Funds 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 Funds net assets by the number of Fund shares outstanding.
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.
Municipal debt securities are valued at prices supplied by independent pricing services approved by the Funds Board. 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.
Corporate and sovereign debt securities are valued at prices supplied by independent pricing services approved by the Funds Board. 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.
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 Level 1.
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 Board 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 securitys 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 companys or issuers 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 Funds NAV and the prices used by the Funds Underlying Index, which in turn could result in a difference between the Funds performance and the performance of the Funds Underlying Index.
Disclosure about the classification of the fair value measurements is included in a table following the Funds 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. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. All premiums and discounts are amortized/accreted for both tax and financial reporting purposes.
Accounting Standard Update In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2017-08, Receivables-Nonrefundable fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities which amends the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities. Under the new guidance, premium amortization of purchased callable debt securities that have explicit, non-contingent call features and are callable at fixed prices will be amortized to the earliest call date. The guidance will be applied on a modified retrospective basis and is effective for fiscal years, and their interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance to the Funds.
Tax Information and Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders It is each Funds 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 Xtrackers Emerging Markets Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF, Xtrackers High Yield Corporate Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF, Xtrackers Investment Grade Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF and Xtrackers Municipal Infrastructure Revenue Bond ETF to pay out dividends from its net investment income monthly and Xtrackers MSCI All World ex US High Dividend Yield Equity ETF and Xtrackers MSCI EAFE High Dividend Yield Equity ETF to pay out dividends from net investment income quarterly. 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 May 31, 2019, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

For tax purposes short-term capital gain distributions are considered ordinary income distributions. |
At May 31, 2019, 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.

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). Foreign taxes payable as of May 31, 2019, 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 year 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, except the Xtrackers Municipal Infrastructure Revenue Bond 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 year ended May 31, 2019, the

DBX ETF Trust
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
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 (0.11% annualized effective rate as of May 31, 2019) on the cash collateral invested in DWS Government & Agency Securities Portfolio. The Funds receive compensation for lending its 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 May 31, 2019, the Xtrackers High Yield Corporate Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF had securities on loan, which were classified as Exchange-Traded Funds in the Schedule of Investments. The Xtrackers Investment Grade Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF had securities on loan, which were classified as Corporate Bonds in the Schedule of Investments. The value of the related collateral exceeded the value of the securities loaned at year end. As of year end, the remaining cash contractual maturity of the collateral agreements were overnight and continuous.

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 year ended May 31, 2019, Xtrackers Emerging Markets Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF, Xtrackers High Yield Corporate Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF and Xtrackers Investment Grade Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF enter into short U.S. Treasury futures contracts to seek to mitigate the potential negative impact of rising Treasury interest rates on the performance of each Funds long bond investments and Xtrackers MSCI All World ex US High Dividend Yield Equity ETF and Xtrackers MSCI EAFE High Dividend Yield Equity ETF utilized futures in order to simulate investment in the 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
64
DBX ETF Trust
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
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 days settlement price, which could effectively prevent liquidation of unfavorable positions.
A summary of the open futures contracts as of May 31, 2019 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 May 31, 2019 and the related location in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities, presented by primary underlying risk exposure:

5. Fund Share Transactions
As of May 31, 2019, 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 Funds 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. Concentration of Ownership
From time to time, the Funds may have a concentration of several shareholder accounts holding a significant percentage of shares outstanding. Investment activities of these shareholders could have a material impact on the Fund. At May 31, 2019, there was one affiliated shareholder account for each of the funds listed below holding a significant percentage of the shares outstanding:

7. Investing in Emerging Markets
The securities of issuers located in emerging markets tend to be more volatile and less liquid than securities of issuers located in more mature economies, and emerging markets generally have less diverse and less mature economic structures and less stable political systems than those of developed countries. The securities of issuers located or doing substantial business in emerging markets are often subject to rapid and large changes in price.
8. Investing in High-Yield Debt Securities
High-yield debt securities or junk bonds are generally regarded as speculative with respect to the issuers continuing ability to meet principal and interest payments. A funds 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.

Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trusts 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 Trusts internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an

DBX ETF Trust
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (Continued)
understanding of the internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trusts internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
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 May 31, 2019, by correspondence with the custodians and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. 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.

Xtrackers Emerging Markets Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF, Xtrackers High Yield Corporate Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF, Xtrackers Investment Grade Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF, Xtrackers Municipal Infrastructure Revenue Bond ETF, Xtrackers MSCI All World ex US High Dividend Yield Equity ETF, and Xtrackers MSCI EAFE High Dividend Yield Equity ETF
After discussions at the meeting of the Board of Trustees (Board or Trustees) held on February 11-12, 2019 (the Meeting), the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees (those not affiliated with DBX ETF Trust (the Trust) or its service providers), unanimously approved the continuance of the Investment Advisory Agreement with respect to Xtrackers Emerging Markets Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF, Xtrackers High Yield Corporate Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF, Xtrackers Investment Grade Bond Interest Rate Hedged ETF, Xtrackers Municipal Infrastructure Revenue Bond ETF, Xtrackers MSCI All World ex US High Dividend Yield Equity ETF, and Xtrackers MSCI EAFE High Dividend Yield Equity ETF (each a Fund, and collectively, the Funds). The Independent Trustees were advised throughout the review and Meeting by K&L Gates LLP (Independent Trustee Counsel).
Before reaching their decision to approve the Investment Advisory Agreement for another annual period, the Independent Trustees evaluated the materials furnished to them in advance of the Meeting from DBX Advisors LLC (DBX or the Advisor) for purposes of reviewing the agreements terms and also took into consideration the discussions they had with management during the Meeting and among themselves during their Executive Sessions held on February 11 and February 12, 2019. The Independent Trustees also noted that they had received and should take into consideration a substantial amount of information furnished throughout the year at regular Board meetings, which information included, among other things, an analysis of each Funds investment performance and related financial information, presentations given by DBX, as well as its periodic reports on brokerage commissions, portfolio execution and other services provided to the Funds.
In reaching its decision to continue in effect the Investment Advisory Agreement for another annual period, the Board considered all factors it believed relevant, including (1) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds and their shareholders; (2) the financial resources of DBX and its resulting ability to perform its obligations under the Investment Advisory Agreement; (3) the competitiveness of the advisory fee; (4) the total cost of the services provided by and the profits realized by the Advisor from its relationship with the Funds; (5) the extent to which economies of scale have been realized, and if the Funds shareholders have benefitted from those economies; and (6) fall out benefits, if any, enjoyed by the Advisor.
The Board reached a determination, with the assistance of Dechert LLP (Trust Counsel) and through the exercise of its business judgment, that approval of the Investment Advisory Agreement and the compensation to be received thereunder is in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders as well as consistent with the Boards duties under state and federal law. The Board reached this conclusion based on multiple factors.
The Board considered the following in determining whether to approve the Investment Advisory Agreement:
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board reviewed in detail the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement. In doing so, the Board considered the information it had received from and the discussions it had with the Advisor continuously during the prior year, in addition to the information the Advisor had provided in response to the Boards requests prior to the Meeting. The Board considered that these services include, among other things, furnishing a continuous investment program for the Funds, including arranging for, or implementing, the purchase and sale of portfolio securities, the provision of general corporate services such as portfolio management compliance services and the preparation and filing of certain reports on behalf of the Trust. The Board also considered, among other things, the professional experience, qualifications and performance of the senior management and key professional personnel of the Advisor, including portfolio management.
The Board considered that the Advisor provides, at its own expense, office facilities and equipment for use by the Funds and supervisory persons responsible for supervising and monitoring the Trusts service providers. The Board also considered that the Advisor pays or arranges for the compensation of officers of the Trust who are also officers or employees of the Advisor or one of its Deutsche Bank affiliates, except as may otherwise be
75
DBX ETF Trust
Board Considerations in Approval of Investment Advisory Contract (Unaudited) (Continued)
determined by the Board. In addition, the Board considered that the Advisor arranges for the provision of transfer agency, custody, fund administration and accounting, and other non-distribution services necessary for the Funds operations. The Board also considered that in addition to managing the Funds portfolios directly, the Advisor provides oversight of day-to-day operations, including monitoring tracking error, providing services in connection with the creation and redemption of creation units and assistance in meeting legal, compliance and regulatory requirements applicable to the Funds. The Trustees took into consideration that tracking error for each Fund during the year was in an expected range.
Based on its review, the Board concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of services provided by the Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement are reasonable and appropriate in relation to the fees paid to the Advisor, taking special consideration of the fact that the advisory fee is a unitary fee and, as a result, a portion of the unitary advisory fee will be used to compensate the Funds service providers. The Board considered the staffing of the Advisor, including the training, qualifications and experience of investment personnel in managing the Funds. The Board also considered the expertise of the Advisor in supervising third party service providers to the Funds, such as the administrator and the custodian, noting the Advisors extensive work with these service providers (including onsite due diligence sessions) to conduct such supervision. The Board further considered the compliance program of the Advisor, which supports the Funds compliance program.
Advisors Financial Resources. In connection with the assessment of the ability of the Advisor to perform its duties under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Board considered the Advisors financial condition and whether it has the resources necessary to carry out its functions. The Board concluded that the Advisor has the financial resources necessary to perform its obligations under the Investment Advisory Agreement.
Reasonableness of Advisory Fee. The Board compared each Funds advisory fee to that of other pertinent exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and noted that each Funds fee is competitive with the fees of its respective peer group. The Board agreed that it was familiar with the Advisors methodology for selecting each Funds peer group and believed that the Funds peer groups were appropriate. The Board considered that the fee for each of the Funds is a unitary fee pursuant to which the Advisor pays all of the Funds costs (subject to certain specified exceptions). The Board also considered that each Funds portfolio is managed on a day-to-day basis by the Advisor and that the Advisor also provides oversight of day-to-day operations, including monitoring tracking error, providing services in connection with creation and redemption units and assistance in meeting legal and regulatory requirements applicable to the Funds. Based on its review, the Board concluded that the advisory fee for each Fund is reasonable in light of the services provided.
Costs of Services and Profitability. The Board considered the expenses of the Advisor in developing and rendering services provided to the Funds and the information provided by the Advisor to the Board regarding the Funds profitability. The Board considered that the Advisor had provided extensive information about the Advisors profitability and the Advisors methodology in determining profitability. While the Advisor had provided information about the Advisors expenses relating to marketing the Funds, the Board considered the Advisors profitability without accounting for such expenses. The Board determined that, although only some of the Funds were profitable as of this time, the Advisors profitability with respect to each profitable Fund was not excessive. The Board considered whether the Advisor would benefit in other ways from its relationships with the Funds and concluded that there were no material fall-out benefits likely to accrue to the Advisor related to the operation of the Funds.
Economies of Scale. The Board considered that certain Funds had attracted a substantial amount of assets, but determined that those Funds were not experiencing economies of scale beyond what was reflected in each Funds unitary fee, which the Board noted was very competitive. The Board considered that the other Funds were not experiencing economies of scale at this time and determined to revisit this matter after the Funds had attracted more assets.
Given all the information available to it and considering all material factors, the Board concluded that the Investment Advisory Agreement was fair and reasonable and it was unanimously approved.

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. Bond investments are subject to interest-rate, credit, liquidity and market risks to varying degrees. When interest rates rise, bond prices generally fall. Credit risk refers to the ability of an issuer to make timely payments of principal and interest. Funds investing in a single industry, country or in a limited geographic region generally are more volatile than more diversified funds. In certain situations, it may be difficult or impossible to sell an investment at an acceptable price. 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. Emerging markets tend to be more volatile and less liquid than the markets of more mature economies, and generally have less diverse and less mature economic structures and less stable political systems than those of developed countries. Investments in lower-quality (junk bonds) and non-rated securities present greater risk of loss than investments in higher-quality securities. Municipal securities are subject to the risk that litigation, legislation or other political events, local business or economic conditions or the bankruptcy of the issuer could have a significant effect on an issuers ability to make payments of principal and/or interest. The market for municipal bonds may be less liquid than for taxable bonds and there may be less information available on the financial condition of issuers of municipal securities than for public corporations. Income from municipal bonds may be subject to state and local taxes and at times the alternative minimum tax. EMIH, HYIH and IGIH seek to mitigate the potential negative impact of rising Treasury interest rates by taking short positions in U.S. Treasury notes or bonds, or futures relating to those instruments. These short positions are not intended to mitigate credit risk or other factors that may have a greater impact on performance than rising or falling interest rates. The short positions may limit the potential positive impact of falling interest rates and there is no guarantee that the short positions will completely eliminate the interest rate risk of the long positions. The Funds use of forward currency contracts may not be successful in hedging currency exchange rates changes and could eliminate some or all of the benefit of an increase in the value of a foreign currency versus the U.S. dollar. Investing in derivatives entails special risks relating to liquidity, leverage and credit that may reduce returns and/or increase volatility. The value of a futures contract tends to increase and decrease in tandem with the value of the underlying instrument. The prices of futures can be highly volatile, using futures can lower total return and the potential loss from futures can exceed a Funds initial investment in such contracts. Each Fund, except EMIH, IGIH and HDAW, is non-diversified and can take larger positions in fewer issues, increasing its potential risk. Stocks may decline in value. Dividends are not guaranteed. If the dividend-paying stocks held by the Fund reduce or stop paying dividends, the Funds ability to generate income may be adversely affected. 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.

To our Shareholders: (Unaudited)
Dear Shareholder,
We are pleased to provide this annual report for our flagship ETFs tracking Chinas equity market for the period ended May 31, 2019.
Global economic expansion moderated as a result of ongoing U.S.-China trade wars, macroeconomic stress in Argentina and Turkey and disruptions in the auto sector in Germany. China retained its fastest-growing economy tag despite lower growth, following its unfinished deleveraging campaign and rising trade wars with the U.S. Meanwhile, the Chinese governments policies for strengthening the domestic consumer demand and tax reforms have offset the slow growth in the economy. Developing high-quality manufacturing and reforms in various fields have also helped the economy to maintain the momentum.
The worlds second-largest economy grew at a healthy 6.6 percent year-on-year, with the service sector being the major contributor to the GDP growth. Despite the economic downturn, the primary, secondary, and the tertiary, industries have performed relatively well during the reporting period. Although Chinas record 2018 bilateral trade surplus with the U.S. captured headlines, the countrys broader current account balance continued its multi-year decline. Moreover, China is recording sizeable trade deficits, mainly with Germany, Japan, and few countries in Eastern Asia. On the other hand, China keeps running a substantial surplus with many industrialized countries, most notably with the U.S. A number of factors contributed to the surge in the trade balance, including strong growth in U.S. demand, front-loading by U.S. importers in anticipation of tariffs, and a weaker renminbi. Important indicators of the economy like domestic consumption, retail sales, industrial growth, and fixed asset investments have witnessed positive growth, providing reassurance about the economic stability.
Furthermore, the Peoples Bank of China and the Chinese government have taken measures like offering secured loans for start-ups, cuts in taxes and fees, and reductions in the social insurance contribution, which have benefited small and medium-sized businesses. This move has helped the Chinese economy to report lower unemployment rates and faster income growth. Furthermore, China has relaxed guidelines for top-rated companies seeking to raise funds in the domestic bond market. Meanwhile, Chinas stock market plunged, witnessing an adverse slide largely due to the U.S. trade tensions, crackdown on shadow banking and concerns over economic cooling. A weaker renminbi has provided support to export growth, however, as imports have become costlier, it has stimulated the need to increase domestic production. Amid strict control policies across China, real estate and infrastructure investment continued to hold up well, but weakened in manufacturing.
We believe Chinas economy, along with its currency and company profits will prove to be more resilient against trade wars and tariffs; we expect this to mainly stem from Chinas own need to transition its economy further away from exports and investment spending to domestic consumption. The Chinese government had also rolled out a series of easing measures in the past few months to boost domestic demand in the face of escalating external uncertainties. The moves include reducing taxes and speeding up bond issuance to safeguard economic growth. Nevertheless, investors will have to wait to see how U.S.-China trade relations will open-up in the near future, as any positive outcome could potentially improve market sentiment.
Our team appreciates your trust and looks forward to serving your investment needs through innovative index-driven strategies.
Sincerely,
/s/ Freddi Klassen

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. The estimated operating expense ratio as disclosed in the most recent prospectus dated September 28, 2018, as amended October 9, 2018, was 0.66%, and may differ from the expense ratio disclosed in the Financial Highlights table in this report.
The Funds net asset value or NAV is calculated by dividing the value of the Funds 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 funds NAV is calculated. Since shares of a fund may not have traded in the secondary market until after the funds 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.

1 Total returns are calculated based on the commencement of operations, 10/20/15 (Inception).
2 On June 4, 2018, the Fund changed its Underlying Index from CSI 300 USD Hedged Index to the Underlying Index. Returns reflect performance for the CSI 300 USD Hedged Index through June 4, 2018. Past performance may have been different if the Funds current investment strategy had been in effect.
3 The MSCI ACWI ex USA Index replaced the CSI 300 Index as the Funds principal benchmark index because the Advisor believes that the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index more accurately reflects the Funds current investment strategies.
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 investment management fees. Without such waiver, performance would have been lower. The estimated operating expense ratio as disclosed in the most recent prospectus dated September 28, 2018, as amended October 9, 2018, was 0.60%, and may differ from the expense ratio disclosed in the Financial Highlights table in this report. This expense ratio includes net expenses of the affiliated funds in which ASHX invests.
The Funds net asset value or NAV is calculated by dividing the value of the Funds 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 funds NAV is calculated. Since shares of a fund may not have traded in the secondary market until after the funds 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.

DBX ETF Trust
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 management fees and other fund expenses. 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, Xtrackers Harvest CSI 300 China A-Shares 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. In the most recent six-month period Xtrackers MSCI All China Equity ETF and Xtrackers MSCI China A Inclusion Equity ETF limited these expenses; had they not done so, expenses would have been higher. 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 (December 1, 2018 to May 31, 2019).
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 Funds annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182 (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.

Investment was valued using significant unobservable inputs. |
Fair Value Measurements
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.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of May 31, 2019 in valuing the Funds investments. For information on the Funds 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 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.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of May 31, 2019 in valuing the Funds investments. For information on the Funds policy regarding the valuation of investments, please refer to the Security Valuation section of Note 2 in the accompanying Notes to Financial Statements.

As of May 31, 2019, the Trust consists of thirty-seven 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:
Fund |
Underlying Index |
|
Xtrackers Harvest CSI 300 China A-Shares ETF | CSI 300 Index | |
Xtrackers Harvest CSI 500 China A-Shares Small Cap ETF | CSI 500 Index | |
Xtrackers MSCI All China Equity ETF | MSCI China All Shares Index | |
Xtrackers MSCI China A Inclusion Equity ETF* | MSCI China A Inclusion Index* |
* |
On June 4, 2018, the Fund changed its name from Xtrackers CSI 300 China A-Shares Hedged Equity ETF to Xtrackers MSCI China A Inclusion Equity ETF and its Underlying Index from CSI 300 USD Hedged Index to the MSCI China A Inclusion Index. |
CSI 300 Index is calculated and maintained by China Securities Index Co., Ltd. It is a modified free-float market capitalization weighted index composed of the largest and most liquid stocks in the China A-Share market. Constituent stocks for the Underlying Index must have been listed on either the Shanghai Stock Exchange or the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. The composition of the Underlying Index is reviewed every six-months.
CSI 500 Index is calculated and maintained by China Securities Index Co., Ltd. It is a modified free-float market capitalization weighted index composed of the 500 smallest and most liquid stocks in the China A-Share market. Constituent stocks for the Underlying Index must have been listed on either the Shanghai Stock Exchange or the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. The composition of the Underlying Index is reviewed every six-months.
MSCI is the creator of the MSCI China All Shares Index and the MSCI China A Inclusion Equity Index. The MSCI China All Share Index is a rules-based, free-float adjusted market capitalization index comprised of equity securities that are 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, Inc. 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 issuers 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.
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 diversified series of the Trust. Xtrackers MSCI All China Equity 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. The securities of a particular issuer (or securities of issuers in particular industries) may dominate the Underlying Index of such a Fund and, consequently, the Funds investment portfolio. This may adversely affect the Funds performance or subject the funds shares to greater price volatility than that experienced by more diversified investment companies.
Pursuant to the Trusts organizational documents, the Trusts 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 Trusts 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.
In October 2018, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted amendments to certain disclosure requirements in Securities Act Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, which is intended to facilitate the disclosure of information to investors and simplify compliance without significantly altering the total mix of information provided to investors. Effective with the current reporting period, the Funds adopted the amendments with the impacts being that the Funds are no longer required to present components of distributable earnings on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities or the sources of distributable earnings and the amount of undistributed net investment income on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.
Security Valuation The NAV of each Funds 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 Funds net assets by the number of Fund shares outstanding.
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.

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
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.
Forward currency contracts are valued at the prevailing forward exchange rate of the underlying currencies and are categorized as Level 2.
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 Board 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 securitys 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 companys or issuers 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 securitys 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 Funds NAV and the prices used by the Funds Underlying Index, which in turn could result in a difference between the Funds performance and the performance of the Funds Underlying Index.
Disclosure about the classification of the fair value measurements is included in a table following the Funds 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.
Tax Information and Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders It is each Funds 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.
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 May 31, 2019, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
As of May 31, 2019, 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 May 31, 2019, 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.

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). Foreign taxes payable as of May 31, 2019, 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 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.
With the approval from the PRC State Council, the PRC State Administration of Taxation, the PRC Ministry of Finance and the China Securities Regulatory Commission jointly issued Caishui [2014] 79 (Circular 79) on November 14, 2014. According to Circular 79, RQFIIs are temporarily exempt from WHT with respect to gains derived from the trading of equity investments (including shares in PRC enterprises) effective from November 17, 2014. 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
48
DBX ETF Trust
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
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 are companies whose value of immovable property in the PRC is greater than 50% of their value of total assets. 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, respectively; 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 year 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 year ended May 31, 2019, 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 (0.11% annualized effective rate as of May 31, 2019) on the cash collateral invested in DWS Government & Agency Securities Portfolio. The Funds receive compensation for lending its 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 May 31, 2019, the Xtrackers MSCI All China Equity ETF had securities on loan, which were classified as Common Stocks and Exchange-Traded Funds in the Schedule of Investments. The value of the related collateral exceeded the value of the securities loaned at year end.

As of May 31, 2019, the Xtrackers MSCI China A Inclusion Equity ETF had securities on loan, which were classified as Exchanged Traded Funds in the Schedule of Investments. The value of the related cash collateral exceeded the value of the securities loaned at year end. As of year end, the remaining contractual maturity of the cash collateral agreements were overnight and continuous.
Derivatives
Forward Foreign Currency Contracts Prior to June 5, 2018, the Xtrackers MSCI China A Inclusion Equity ETF entered into forward foreign currency contracts (forward currency contracts) designed to offset the Funds exposure to non-U.S. currencies.
A forward currency contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated forward rate. For the period June 1, 2018 to June 4, 2018, Xtrackers MSCI China A Inclusion Equity ETF invested in forward currency contracts to hedge against changes in the value of the U.S. dollar against the renminbi.
The gain or loss arising from the difference between the original contract and the closing of such contract would be included in net realized gain or loss on forward foreign currency contracts. Risks may arise from the potential inability of a counterparty to meet the terms of a contract and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. The face or contract amount, in U.S. dollars reflects the total exposure the Fund has in that particular currency contract.
There were no open forward currency contracts as of the year ended May 31, 2019.
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 year ended May 31, 2019, Xtrackers MSCI All China Equity ETF and Xtrackers MSCI China A Inclusion Equity ETF utilized futures in order to simulate investment in the 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 days settlement price, which could effectively prevent liquidation of unfavorable positions.

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.

6. 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; custody risks associated with investing through Stock Connect, an RQFII or other programs to access the Chinese securities markets,

Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trusts 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 Trusts internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of the internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trusts internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
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 May 31, 2019, by correspondence

with the custodians and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. 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.

Xtrackers Harvest CSI 300 China A-Shares ETF and Xtrackers Harvest CSI 500 China A-Shares Small Cap ETF
After discussions at the meeting of the Board of Trustees (Board or Trustees) held on February 11-12, 2019 (the Meeting), the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees (those not affiliated with DBX ETF Trust (the Trust) or its service providers), unanimously approved the continuance of the Investment Advisory Agreement and Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement with respect to Xtrackers Harvest CSI 300 China A-Shares ETF and Xtrackers Harvest CSI 500 China A-Shares Small Cap ETF (the Funds). The Independent Trustees were advised throughout the review and Meeting by K&L Gates LLP (Independent Trustee Counsel).
Before reaching their decision to approve the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement for another annual period, the Independent Trustees evaluated the materials furnished to them in advance of the Meeting from DBX Advisors LLC (DBX or the Advisor) and Harvest for purposes of reviewing the agreements terms and also took into consideration the discussions they had with management during the Meeting and among themselves during their Executive Sessions held on February 11 and February 12, 2019. The Independent Trustees also noted that they had received and should take into consideration a substantial amount of information furnished throughout the year at regular Board meetings, which information included, among other things, an analysis of each Funds investment performance and related financial information, presentations given by DBX and Harvest, as well as periodic reports on brokerage commissions, portfolio execution and other services provided to the Funds.
In reaching its decision to continue in effect the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Board considered all factors it believed relevant, including (1) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds and their shareholders; (2) the financial resources of DBX and its resulting ability to perform its obligations under the Investment Advisory Agreement; (3) the competitiveness of the advisory fee; (4) the total cost of the services provided by and the profits realized by the Advisor from its relationship with the Funds; (5) the extent to which economies of scale have been realized, and if the Funds shareholders have benefitted from those economies; and (6) fall out benefits, if any, enjoyed by the Advisor.
In reaching its decision to continue in effect the Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Board considered all factors it believed relevant, including (1) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds and their shareholders; (2) the performance of Harvest Global Investments Limited (Harvest or Sub-Advisor) with respect to its management of the Funds, as well as Harvests financial resources and its resulting ability to perform its obligations under the Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement; (3) the total cost of the services provided by Harvest from its relationship with the Funds; (4) the extent to which economies of scale have been realized, and if the Funds shareholders have benefitted from those economies; and (5) fall out benefits, if any, enjoyed by the Sub-Advisor.
The Board reached a determination, with the assistance of Dechert LLP (Trust Counsel) and through the exercise of its business judgment, that approval of the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement and the compensation to be received thereunder is in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders as well as consistent with the Boards duties under state and federal law. The Board reached this conclusion based on multiple factors.
The Board considered the following in determining whether to approve the Investment Advisory Agreement:
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board reviewed in detail the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement. In doing so, the Board considered the information it had received from and the discussions it had with the Advisor continuously during the prior year, in addition to the information the Advisor had provided in response to the Boards requests prior to the Meeting. The Board considered that these services include, among other things, furnishing a continuous investment program for the Funds, including arranging for, or implementing, the purchase and sale of portfolio securities, the provision of general corporate services such as portfolio management compliance services and the preparation and filing of certain reports on behalf of the Trust. The Board also considered, among other things, the professional experience, qualifications and performance of the senior management and key professional personnel of the Advisor, including portfolio management.
60
DBX ETF Trust
Board Considerations in Approval of Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Contracts (Unaudited) (Continued)
The Board considered that the Advisor provides, at its own expense, office facilities and equipment for use by the Funds and supervisory persons responsible for supervising and monitoring the Trusts service providers. The Board also considered that the Advisor pays or arranges for the compensation of officers of the Trust who are also officers or employees of the Advisor or one of its Deutsche Bank affiliates, except as may otherwise be determined by the Board. The Board also considered that the Advisor arranges for the provision of transfer agency, custody, fund administration and accounting, and other non-distribution services necessary for the Funds operation. The Board also considered the role played by the Advisor in working with Harvest to manage the Funds portfolios, noting that the Advisor provides oversight of day-to-day operations, including monitoring tracking error, providing services in connection with the creation and redemption of creation units and assistance in meeting legal, compliance and regulatory requirements applicable to the Funds. The Trustees took into consideration that tracking error for each Fund during the year was in an expected range.
Based on its review, the Board concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of services provided by the Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement are reasonable and appropriate in relation to the fees paid to the Advisor, taking special consideration of the fact that the advisory fee is a unitary fee and, as a result, a portion of the unitary advisory fee will be used to compensate the Funds service providers. The Board considered the staffing of the Advisor, including the training, qualifications and experience of investment personnel in managing the Funds. The Board also considered the expertise of the Advisor in supervising third party service providers to the Funds, such as the administrator and the custodian, noting the Advisors extensive work with these service providers (including onsite due diligence sessions) to conduct such supervision. The Board further considered the compliance program of the Advisor, which supports the Funds compliance program.
Advisors Financial Resources. In connection with the assessment of the ability of the Advisor to perform its duties under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Board considered the Advisors financial condition and whether it has the resources necessary to carry out its functions. The Board concluded that the Advisor has the financial resources necessary to perform its obligations under the Investment Advisory Agreement.
Reasonableness of Advisory Fee. The Board compared each Funds advisory fee to that of other pertinent exchange-traded funds (ETFs), and noted that each Funds fee is competitive with the fees of its respective peer group. The Board agreed that it was familiar with the Advisors methodology for selecting each Funds peer group and believed that the Funds peer groups were appropriate. The Board considered that while each Funds advisory fees were higher than certain other ETFs in the Funds peer group, many of those other ETFs did not invest directly in A-Shares. The Board considered that the fee for the Funds is a unitary fee pursuant to which the Advisor pays all of the Funds costs (subject to certain specified exceptions). The Board also considered that the Funds portfolios are managed on a day-to-day basis by the Sub-Advisor, which receives a fee from the Advisor. The Board considered the allocation of responsibilities between the Advisor and Sub-Advisor and noted that the Advisor provides oversight of day-to-day operations, including monitoring tracking error, providing services in connection with creation and redemption units and assistance in meeting legal and regulatory requirements applicable to the Funds. Based on its review, the Board concluded that the advisory fee is reasonable in light of the services provided.
Costs of Services and Profitability. The Board considered the expenses of the Advisor in developing and rendering services to the Funds and the information provided by the Advisor to the Board regarding the Funds profitability. The Board considered that the Advisor had provided extensive information about the Advisors profitability and the Advisors methodology in determining profitability. While the Advisor had provided information about the Advisors expenses relating to marketing the Funds, the Board considered the Advisors profitability without accounting for such expenses. The Board determined that only Xtrackers Harvest CSI 300 China A-Shares ETF was profitable as of this time and the Advisors profitability with respect to the Fund was not excessive. The Board also noted that since the fee paid by the Advisor to the Sub-Advisor under the Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement contained breakpoints, the Advisor could experience increased profitability as the Funds assets increased. The Board considered whether the Advisor would benefit in other ways from its relationships with the Funds and concluded that there were no material fall-out benefits likely to accrue to the Advisor related to the operation of the Funds.
61
DBX ETF Trust
Board Considerations in Approval of Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Contracts (Unaudited) (Continued)
Economies of Scale. The Board considered that Xtrackers Harvest CSI 300 China A-Shares ETF had attracted a substantial amount of assets (though it had also experienced outflows during the year), but determined that the Fund was not experiencing economies of scale beyond what was reflected in the Funds unitary fee, which the Board noted was very competitive. The Board considered that Xtrackers Harvest CSI 500 China A-Shares Small Cap ETF was not experiencing economies of scale at this time and determined to evaluate the economies of scale on an ongoing basis as a result of asset growth of the Funds.
Given all the information available to it and considering all material factors, the Board concluded that the Investment Advisory Agreement was fair and reasonable and it was unanimously approved.
The Board considered the following in determining whether to approve the Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement:
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. In considering the nature, extent and quality of services that Harvest provides to the Funds, the Board reviewed in detail the nature, extent and quality of services provided by Harvest under the Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement. In doing so, the Board considered the information it had received from the Sub-Advisor continuously during the prior year, in addition to the information the Sub-Advisor had provided in response to the Boards requests prior to the Meeting. The Board considered that these services include, among other things, furnishing a continuous investment program for the Funds, including arranging for, or implementing, the purchase and sale of portfolio securities.
The Board also considered Harvests operational capabilities and resources, and its experience in serving as investment sub-advisor to the Funds. The Board considered the professional experience, qualifications and performance of Harvests senior management and key professional personnel, as well as Harvests depth and breadth of experience in managing investment portfolios consisting of China A-Shares, and their techniques for implementing such strategies while minimizing index tracking error. The Board particularly considered the value of the access to China A-Shares provided to the Funds by Harvest through Harvests RQFII quota granted by the Chinese authorities, noting that it was in the Funds best interests to maintain as many means as possible to access China A-Shares. In addition, the Board considered Harvests operational capabilities and resources, and Harvests experience in managing index funds covering various asset classes. The Board noted that Harvest manages its index-based portfolios using both full replication and sampling techniques and maintains strict discipline in the implementation of its indexing strategies. To that end, the Board noted that when there are changes to a benchmark index, Harvest closely monitors any such changes to devise strategies to realign its portfolios at the lowest possible cost while tracking the respective benchmark index. The Board also noted Harvests processes to minimize the cost of trading.
Based on its review, the Board concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of services provided by Harvest under the Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement are reasonable and appropriate in relation to the fees paid to Harvest, taking special consideration of the fact that the fees paid to Harvest are payable by the Advisor and not the Funds.
Performance of Harvest; Harvests Financial Resources. The Board considered Harvests performance in managing the Funds and its ability to minimize tracking error. The Board concluded that, given Harvests capabilities and experience in managing the Funds, Harvest had generally been able to keep the Funds tracking error within acceptable ranges.
The Board also considered Harvests financial condition and whether it has the resources necessary to carry out its functions. The Board concluded that Harvest has the financial resources necessary to perform its obligations under the Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement.
Reasonableness of Sub-Advisory Fee. The Board considered that the fee paid to Harvest in respect of the Funds would be paid by the Advisor and not the Funds. The Board considered that the fee for the Funds was a unitary fee pursuant to which the Advisor would pay all of the Funds costs (subject to certain specified exceptions), and thus was not directly affected by the amount of the sub-advisory fee paid to Harvest. Based on its review, the Board concluded that the sub-advisory fee was reasonable in light of the services provided.

Costs of Services and Profitability. The Board considered that the fees paid by the Advisor to Harvest under the Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement contain breakpoints. The Board further considered that specific information about Harvests profitability with respect to its services provided to the Funds was not available because Harvest does not calculate the profitability of its sub-advisory services on a per-Fund level. The Board also considered that the overall fees paid by each Fund remained reasonable.
The Board also considered whether Harvest would benefit in other ways from its relationship with the Funds. The Board discussed Harvests practices regarding the selection and compensation of brokers and dealers that execute portfolio transactions for the Funds and the brokers and dealers provision of brokerage services to Harvest. The Board discussed the potential benefits Harvest might derive from the Funds soft dollar arrangements, whereby brokers provide brokerage services to the Funds or Harvest in return for allocating fund brokerage.
Economies of Scale. The Board considered that Xtrackers Harvest CSI 300 China A-Shares ETF had attracted a substantial amount of assets, but determined that the Fund was not experiencing economies of scale beyond what was reflected in the Funds unitary fee, which the Board noted was very competitive. The Board considered that Xtrackers Harvest CSI 500 China A-Shares Small Cap ETF was not experiencing economies of scale at this time and determined to evaluate the economies of scale on an ongoing basis as a result of asset growth of the Funds.
Given all the information available to it and considering all material factors, the Board concluded that the Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement was fair and reasonable and it was unanimously approved.
Xtrackers MSCI All China Equity ETF and Xtrackers MSCI China A-Inclusion Equity ETF
After discussions at the meeting of the Board of Trustees (Board or Trustees) held on February 11-12, 2019 (the Meeting), the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees (those not affiliated with DBX ETF Trust (the Trust) or its service providers), unanimously approved the continuance of the Investment Advisory Agreement with respect to Xtrackers MSCI All China Equity ETF and Xtrackers MSCI China A Inclusion Equity ETF (each a Fund, and collectively, the Funds). The Independent Trustees were advised throughout the review and Meeting by K&L Gates LLP (Independent Trustee Counsel).
Before reaching their decision to approve the Investment Advisory Agreement for another annual period, the Independent Trustees evaluated the materials furnished to them in advance of the Meeting from DBX Advisors LLC (DBX or the Advisor) for purposes of reviewing the agreements terms and also took into consideration the discussions they had with management during the Meeting and among themselves during their Executive Sessions held on February 11 and February 12, 2019. The Independent Trustees also noted that they had received and should take into consideration a substantial amount of information furnished throughout the year at regular Board meetings, which information included, among other things, an analysis of each Funds investment performance and related financial information, presentations given by DBX, as well as its periodic reports on brokerage commissions, portfolio execution and other services provided to the Funds.
In reaching its decision to continue in effect the Investment Advisory Agreement for another annual period, the Board considered all factors it believed relevant, including (1) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds and their shareholders; (2) the financial resources of DBX and its resulting ability to perform its obligations under the Investment Advisory Agreement; (3) the competitiveness of the advisory fee; (4) the total cost of the services provided by and the profits realized by the Advisor from its relationship with the Funds; (5) the extent to which economies of scale have been realized, and if the Funds shareholders have benefitted from those economies; and (6) fall out benefits, if any, enjoyed by the Advisor.
The Board reached a determination, with the assistance of Dechert LLP (Trust Counsel) and through the exercise of its business judgment, that approval of the Investment Advisory Agreement and the compensation to be received thereunder is in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders as well as consistent with the Boards duties under state and federal law. The Board reached this conclusion based on multiple factors.

Board Considerations in Approval of Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Contracts (Unaudited) (Continued)
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board reviewed in detail the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement. In doing so, the Board considered the information it had received from and the discussions it had with the Advisor continuously during the prior year, in addition to the information the Advisor had provided in response to the Boards requests prior to the Meeting. The Board considered that these services include, among other things, furnishing a continuous investment program for the Funds, including arranging for, or implementing, the purchase and sale of portfolio securities, the provision of general corporate services such as portfolio management compliance services and the preparation and filing of certain reports on behalf of the Trust. The Board also considered, among other things, the professional experience, qualifications and performance of the senior management and key professional personnel of the Advisor, including portfolio management.
The Board considered that the Advisor provides, at its own expense, office facilities and equipment for use by the Funds and supervisory persons responsible for supervising and monitoring the Trusts service providers. The Board also considered that the Advisor pays or arranges for the compensation of officers of the Trust who are also officers or employees of the Advisor or one of its Deutsche Bank affiliates, except as may otherwise be determined by the Board. In addition, the Board considered that the Advisor arranges for the provision of transfer agency, custody, fund administration and accounting, and other non-distribution services necessary for the Funds operations. The Board also considered that in addition to managing the Funds portfolios directly, the Advisor provides oversight of day-to-day operations, including monitoring tracking error, providing services in connection with the creation and redemption of creation units and assistance in meeting legal, compliance and regulatory requirements applicable to the Funds. The Trustees took into consideration that tracking error for each Fund during the year was in an expected range.
Based on its review, the Board concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of services provided by the Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement are reasonable and appropriate in relation to the fees paid to the Advisor, taking special consideration of the fact that the advisory fee is a unitary fee and, as a result, a portion of the unitary advisory fee will be used to compensate the Funds service providers. The Board considered the staffing of the Advisor, including the training, qualifications and experience of investment personnel in managing the Funds. The Board also considered the expertise of the Advisor in supervising third party service providers to the Funds, such as the administrator and the custodian, noting the Advisors extensive work with these service providers (including onsite due diligence sessions) to conduct such supervision. The Board further considered the compliance program of the Advisor, which supports the Funds compliance program.
Advisors Financial Resources. In connection with the assessment of the ability of the Advisor to perform its duties under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Board considered the Advisors financial condition and whether it has the resources necessary to carry out its functions. The Board concluded that the Advisor has the financial resources necessary to perform its obligations under the Investment Advisory Agreement.
Reasonableness of Advisory Fee. The Board compared each Funds advisory fee to that of other pertinent exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and noted that each Funds fee is competitive with the fees of its respective peer group. The Board agreed that it was familiar with the Advisors methodology for selecting each Funds peer group and believed that the Funds peer groups were appropriate. The Board considered that the fee for each of the Funds is a unitary fee pursuant to which the Advisor pays all of the Funds costs (subject to certain specified exceptions). The Board also considered that each Funds portfolio is managed on a day-to-day basis by the Advisor and that the Advisor also provides oversight of day-to-day operations, including monitoring tracking error, providing services in connection with creation and redemption units and assistance in meeting legal and regulatory requirements applicable to the Funds. Based on its review, the Board concluded that the advisory fee for each Fund is reasonable in light of the services provided.
Costs of Services and Profitability. The Board considered the expenses of the Advisor in developing and rendering services provided to the Funds and the information provided by the Advisor to the Board regarding the Funds profitability. The Board considered that the Advisor had provided extensive information about the Advisors profitability and the Advisors methodology in determining profitability. While the Advisor had provided
64
DBX ETF Trust
Board Considerations in Approval of Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Contracts (Unaudited) (Continued)
information about the Advisors expenses relating to marketing the Funds, the Board considered the Advisors profitability without accounting for such expenses. The Board determined that, although only some of the Funds were profitable as of this time, the Advisors profitability with respect to each profitable Fund was not excessive. The Board considered whether the Advisor would benefit in other ways from its relationships with the Funds and concluded that there were no material fall-out benefits likely to accrue to the Advisor related to the operation of the Funds.
Economies of Scale. The Board considered that certain Funds had attracted a substantial amount of assets, but determined that those Funds were not experiencing economies of scale beyond what was reflected in each Funds unitary fee, which the Board noted was very competitive. The Board considered that the other Funds were not experiencing economies of scale at this time and determined to revisit this matter after the Funds had attracted more assets.
Given all the information available to it and considering all material factors, the Board concluded that the Investment Advisory Agreement was fair and reasonable and it was unanimously approved.

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.

To our Shareholders: (Unaudited)
Dear Shareholder,
We are pleased to provide this annual report for the period ended May 31, 2019.
The global growth experienced a synchronized slowdown during the reporting period owing to rising trade tensions and weak manufacturing activity. However, economic growth in the U.S. remained robust, as tax cuts boosted private consumption, ultimately resulting in higher corporate profits. Unemployment rates lowered to a favorable level, partly benefitting from a flock of retiring labor force, pointing to underlying market strength. Meanwhile, economic activity in the Eurozone remained soft due to macroeconomic stress, an auto-sector downturn, and uncertainty over Brexit 1 . In Japan, the continued monetary stimulus has not yet resulted in a sustainable growth phase, apart from periodic surprises. Elsewhere, emerging markets performed well but faced headwinds from trade conflicts and a slowdown in China.
In the Eurozone, growth dynamics have receded substantially during the reporting period mainly due to weakness in the industrials sector, which suffers from external headwinds. Nonetheless, the services industries and domestic demand, supported by thriving labor markets, remained the key drivers of economic growth. Inflation in the economy remains weak, raising the chances of a more dovish stance by the European Central Bank, going forward. Germanys economic growth was primarily affected by the automotive industry due to punitive tariffs 2 announced by the U.S. and environmental concerns over petrol and diesel cars. However, domestic fundamentals remain solid driven by the robust labor market and wage increases. Growth in Italy and Spain surprised to the upside and helped lift the Eurozones gross domestic product in 2019; increased exports and decreased imports supported growth in Italy, while a rebound in fixed investments aided Spain.
Elsewhere, the Japanese economy grew at a moderate pace last year as it faced increasing uncertainty in external demand. Domestic demand has been strong driven by gains in household spending, but a consumption tax hike scheduled for October 2019 could hurt sentiment. The Bank of Japan signaled to keep rates low, as it remains hopeful of inflation trending towards its target. Furthermore, the Latin American economy remained soft in 2019, picking up slightly from 2018. Similar to other nations, political uncertainty and external factors, such as trade tensions and a slowing global economy, have weighed down on the Latin American economy. Brazils economy was weighed down by the fiscal and political challenges and uncertainty increased in Mexico owing to tensions with the US concerning illegal immigration. Global real estate markets remained strong as investment volumes reached record highs in 2018. The amplified economic turbulence has not created any broad-based weakness in real estate markets, with underlying fundamentals remaining strong, underpinned by interest rates at near historic lows in most markets.
The combination of deteriorating prospects of a trade deal, weak demand from China, and uncertainty over the Brexit outcome is a key concern for global equity markets. This difficult environment is likely to have a significant impact on cyclical sectors, such as cars, semi-conductors and industrial goods, excluding defense. Despite the risks, we believe a global earnings recession will be avoided. With no signal of inflationary pressures, central banks have the liberty and impulse to provide accommodation to ensure future growth is at a comfortable level.
Our team appreciates your trust and looks forward to serving your investment needs through innovative index-driven strategies.
Sincerely,
/s/ Freddi Klassen
Freddi Klassen
President and Chief Executive Officer

Prior to October 27, 2017, the Fund was known as Xtrackers MSCI Southern Europe Hedged Equity ETF (DBSE) and had a different investment strategy. Past performance may have been different if the Funds current investment strategy had been in effect.
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 investment management fees. Without such waiver, performance would have been lower. The estimated operating expense ratio as disclosed in the most recent prospectus dated September 28, 2018, was 0.09%, and may differ from the expense ratio disclosed in the Financial Highlights table in this report.
The Funds net asset value or NAV is calculated by dividing the value of the Funds 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 funds NAV is calculated. Since shares of a fund may not have traded in the secondary market until after the funds 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.

Performance Summary (Unaudited)
Xtrackers International Real Estate ETF (HAUZ)
The Xtrackers International Real Estate 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 iSTOXX Developed and Emerging Markets ex USA PK VN Real Estate Index (the Underlying Index). The Underlying Index is a free-float capitalization weighted index that provides exposure to publicly traded real estate securities in countries outside the United States, excluding Pakistan and Vietnam. On February 22, 2019 the Xtrackers MSCI Asia Pacific ex Japan Hedged Equity ETFs name changed to Xtrackers International Real Estate ETF and the Funds ticker symbol changed to HAUZ. At that time, the Underlying Index replaced the MSCI Asia Pacific ex Japan US Dollar Hedged Index which is designed to track developed and emerging market performance in the Asia Pacific region (excluding Japan) while mitigating exposure to fluctuations between the value of the U.S. dollar and the currencies of the countries included in the MSCI Asia Pacific ex Japan US Dollar Hedged Index. The MSCI ACWI ex USA Index is designed to provide exposure to equity securities in developed and emerging stock markets (excluding the United States). It is not possible to invest directly into an index.
Performance as of 5/31/19 |
1 Total returns are calculated based on the commencement of operations, 10/1/13 (Inception).
2 On February 22, 2019, the Fund changed its Underlying Index from MSCI Asia Pacific ex Japan US Dollar Hedged Index to the iSTOXX Developed and Emerging Markets ex USA PK VN Real Estate Index. Returns reflect performance for the MSCI Asia Pacific ex Japan US Dollar Hedged Index through February 21, 2019.
Prior to February 22, 2019, the Fund was known as Xtrackers MSCI Asia Pacific ex Japan Hedged Equity ETF (DBAP) and had a different investment strategy. Past performance may have been different if the Funds current investment strategy had been in effect.
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 investment management fees. Without such waiver, performance would have been lower. The estimated operating expense ratio as disclosed in the most recent prospectus dated February 22, 2019, as supplemented March 29, 2019, was 0.12%, and may differ from the expense ratio disclosed in the Financial Highlights table in this report.
The Funds net asset value or NAV is calculated by dividing the value of the Funds 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 funds NAV is calculated. Since shares of a fund may not have traded in the secondary market until after the funds 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.

DBX ETF Trust
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 management fees and other Fund expenses. In the most recent six-month period the Funds limted these expenses; had they not done so, expenses would have been higher. 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 (December 1, 2018 to May 31, 2019).
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.

Fair Value Measurements
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.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of May 31, 2019 in valuing the Funds investments. For information on the Funds 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 May 31, 2019, the Trust consists of thirty-seven 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 Eurozone Equity ETF |
Xtrackers International Real Estate ETF* |
Xtrackers Japan JPX-Nikkei 400 Equity ETF |
Xtrackers MSCI Latin America Pacific Alliance 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).
Xtrackers Eurozone Equity ETF offers shares that are listed and traded on the Cboe BZX Exchange (Cboe).
Xtrackers International Real Estate ETF, Xtrackers Japan JPX-Nikkei 400 Equity ETF and Xtrackers MSCI Latin America Pacific Alliance ETF offer 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 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 Eurozone Equity ETF | NASDAQ Eurozone Large Mid Cap Index | |
Xtrackers International Real Estate ETF* | iSTOXX Developed and Emerging Markets ex USA PK VN Real Estate Index* | |
Xtrackers Japan JPX-Nikkei 400 Equity ETF | JPX-Nikkei 400 Net Total Return Index | |
Xtrackers MSCI Latin America Pacific Alliance ETF | MSCI Latin America Pacific Alliance Capped Index |
* |
On February 22, 2019, the Fund changed its name from Xtrackers MSCI Asia Pacific ex Japan Hedged Equity ETF to Xtrackers International Real Estate ETF and its Underlying Index from MSCI Asia Pacific ex Japan US Dollar Hedged Index to the iSTOXX Developed and Emerging Markets ex USA PK VN Real Estate Index. |
The NASDAQ Eurozone Large Mid Cap Index which is designed to track the performance of equity securities of large- and mid-capitalization companies based in the countries in the Economic and Monetary Union of the European Union. The NASDAQ Eurozone Large Mid Cap Index is rebalanced semi-annually in March and September.
The iSTOXX Developed and Emerging Markets ex USA PK VN Real Estate Index is a free-float capitalization weighted index that provides exposure to publicly traded real estate securities in countries outside the United States, excluding Pakistan and Vietnam. The iSTOXX Developed and Emerging Markets ex USA PK VN is rebalanced quarterly.
The JPX-Nikkei Index 400 Net Total Return Index is designed to track the performance of equity securities of issuers that are primarily listed on the JASDAQ Stock Exchange (JASDAQ) or the following sections of the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE): the first section (for large companies), the second section (for middle-sized companies) and the Mothers (for high-growth and emerging stocks). The JPX-Nikkei Index 400 is rebalanced annually.
The MSCI Latin America Pacific Alliance Capped Index is designed to provide exposure to equity securities of issuers from Latin American member states of the Pacific Alliance, as well as securities of countries that are headquartered and carry out the majority of operations in these countries. The MSCI Latin America Pacific Alliance Capped Index is rebalanced quarterly.
42
DBX ETF Trust
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
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, except Xtrackers Japan JPX-Nikkei 400 Equity ETF and Xtrackers International Real Estate 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. The securities of a particular issuer (or securities of issuers in particular industries) may dominate the Underlying Index of such a Fund and, consequently, the Funds investment portfolio. This may adversely affect the Funds performance or subject the Funds shares to greater price volatility than that experienced by more diversified investment companies.
Pursuant to the Trusts organizational documents, the Trusts 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 Trusts 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.
In October 2018, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted amendments to certain disclosure requirements in Securities Act Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, which is intended to facilitate the disclosure of information to investors and simplify compliance without significantly altering the total mix of information provided to investors. Effective with the current reporting period, the Funds adopted the amendments with the impacts being that the Funds are no longer required to present components of distributable earnings on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities or the sources of distributable earnings and the amount of undistributed net investment income on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.
Security Valuation The NAV of each Funds 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 Funds net assets by the number of Fund shares outstanding.
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 Level 1.
Forward currency contracts are valued at the prevailing forward exchange rate of the underlying currencies and are categorized as Level 2.
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 Board and are generally categorized as Level 3. In
43
DBX ETF Trust
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
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 securitys 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 companys or issuers 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 Funds NAV and the prices used by the Funds Underlying Index, which in turn could result in a difference between the Funds performance and the performance of the Funds Underlying Index.
Disclosure about the classification of the fair value measurements is included in a table following the Funds 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. 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 Funds 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 Xtrackers Eurozone Equity ETF, Xtrackers International Real Estate ETF, Xtrackers Japan JPX-Nikkei 400 Equity ETF and Xtrackers MSCI Latin America Pacific Alliance ETF to pay out dividends from its net investment income semi-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.
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 May 31, 2019, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

For tax purposes short-term capital gain distributions are considered ordinary income distributions |
At May 31, 2019, 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 capital loss carryforwards are used to offset future capital gains, it is probable that the capital gains so offset will not be distributed to shareholders.

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). Foreign taxes payable as of May 31, 2019, if any, are disclosed in the Funds Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Foreign Currency Translation 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 period ended May 31, 2019, 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 (0.11% annualized effective rate as of May 31, 2019) on the cash collateral invested in DWS Government & Agency Securities Portfolio. The Funds receive compensation for lending its 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.

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
As of May 31, 2019, Xtrackers Eurozone Equity ETF, Xtrackers International Real Estate ETF and Xtrackers Japan JPX-Nikkei 400 Equity ETF had securities on loan, which were classified as Common Stocks in the Schedule of Investments. The Xtrackers MSCI Latin America Pacific Alliance ETF had securities on loan, which were classified as Common Stocks and Exchange Traded Funds in the Schedule of Investments. The value of the related collateral exceeded the value of the securities loaned at period end.
Derivatives
Forward Foreign Currency Contracts Xtrackers International Real Estate ETF may enter into forward foreign currency contracts (forward currency contracts) designed to offset a Funds exposure to non-U.S. currencies. In addition, the Fund may enter into forward currency contracts to facilitate local securities settlements or to protect against currency exposure in connection with distributions to Shareholders.
A forward currency contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated forward rate. Prior to February 22, 2019 Xtrackers International Real Estate ETF (formerly Xtrackers MSCI Asia Pacific ex Japan Hedged Equity ETF) invested in forward currency contracts to hedge against changes in the value of the U.S. dollar against specified non-U.S. currencies. The investment in forward currency contract short vs U.S. dollars had a contract value generally indicative of a range the former fund had to the value of non U.S. currencies during the period from June 1, 2018 through February 21, 2019.
The gain or loss arising from the difference between the original contract and the closing of such contract would be included in net realized gain or loss on forward currency contracts. Risks may arise from the potential inability of a counterparty to meet the terms of a contract and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. The face or contract amount, in U.S. dollars reflects the total exposure the Fund has in that particular currency contract.
There were no open forward currency contracts as of the year ended May 31, 2019.
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 May 31, 2019, Xtrackers Eurozone Equity ETF, Xtrackers International Real Estate ETF and Xtrackers Japan JPX-Nikkei 400 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.
47
DBX ETF Trust
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
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 days settlement price, which could effectively prevent liquidation of unfavorable positions.
A summary of the open futures contracts as of May 31, 2019 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 May 31, 2019 and the related location in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities, presented by primary underlying risk exposure:

As of May 31, 2019, 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 Funds 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.

Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trusts 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 Trusts internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of the internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trusts internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
52
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 May 31, 2019, by correspondence with the custodians and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. 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.

Xtrackers Eurozone Equity ETF, Xtrackers International Real Estate ETF, Xtrackers Japan JPX-Nikkei 400 Equity ETF, and Xtrackers MSCI Latin America Pacific Alliance ETF
After discussions at the meeting of the Board of Trustees (Board or Trustees) held on February 11-12, 2019 (the Meeting), the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees (those not affiliated with DBX ETF Trust (the Trust) or its service providers), unanimously approved the continuance of the Investment Advisory Agreement with respect to Xtrackers Eurozone Equity ETF, Xtrackers International Real Estate ETF, Xtrackers Japan JPX-Nikkei 400 Equity ETF, and Xtrackers MSCI Latin America Pacific Alliance ETF (each a Fund, and collectively, the Funds). The Independent Trustees were advised throughout the review and Meeting by K&L Gates LLP (Independent Trustee Counsel).
Before reaching their decision to approve the Investment Advisory Agreement for another annual period, the Independent Trustees evaluated the materials furnished to them in advance of the Meeting from DBX Advisors LLC (DBX or the Advisor) for purposes of reviewing the agreements terms and also took into consideration the discussions they had with management during the Meeting and among themselves during their Executive Sessions held on February 11 and February 12, 2019. The Independent Trustees also noted that they had received and should take into consideration a substantial amount of information furnished throughout the year at regular Board meetings, which information included, among other things, an analysis of each Funds investment performance and related financial information, presentations given by DBX, as well as its periodic reports on brokerage commissions, portfolio execution and other services provided to the Funds.
In reaching its decision to continue in effect the Investment Advisory Agreement for another annual period, the Board considered all factors it believed relevant, including (1) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds and their shareholders; (2) the financial resources of DBX and its resulting ability to perform its obligations under the Investment Advisory Agreement; (3) the competitiveness of the advisory fee; (4) the total cost of the services provided by and the profits realized by the Advisor from its relationship with the Funds; (5) the extent to which economies of scale have been realized, and if the Funds shareholders have benefitted from those economies; and (6) fall out benefits, if any, enjoyed by the Advisor.
The Board reached a determination, with the assistance of Dechert LLP (Trust Counsel) and through the exercise of its business judgment, that approval of the Investment Advisory Agreement and the compensation to be received thereunder is in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders as well as consistent with the Boards duties under state and federal law. The Board reached this conclusion based on multiple factors.
The Board considered the following in determining whether to approve the Investment Advisory Agreement:
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board reviewed in detail the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement. In doing so, the Board considered the information it had received from and the discussions it had with the Advisor continuously during the prior year, in addition to the information the Advisor had provided in response to the Boards requests prior to the Meeting. The Board considered that these services include, among other things, furnishing a continuous investment program for the Funds, including arranging for, or implementing, the purchase and sale of portfolio securities, the provision of general corporate services such as portfolio management compliance services and the preparation and filing of certain reports on behalf of the Trust. The Board also considered, among other things, the professional experience, qualifications and performance of the senior management and key professional personnel of the Advisor, including portfolio management.
The Board considered that the Advisor provides, at its own expense, office facilities and equipment for use by the Funds and supervisory persons responsible for supervising and monitoring the Trusts service providers. The Board also considered that the Advisor pays or arranges for the compensation of officers of the Trust who are also officers or employees of the Advisor or one of its Deutsche Bank affiliates, except as may otherwise be determined by the Board. In addition, the Board considered that the Advisor arranges for the provision of transfer agency, custody, fund administration and accounting, and other non-distribution services necessary for the Funds operations. The Board also considered that in addition to managing the Funds portfolios directly, the Advisor provides oversight of day-to-day operations, including monitoring tracking error, providing services in connection with the creation and redemption of creation units and assistance in meeting legal, compliance and regulatory requirements applicable to the Funds. The Trustees took into consideration that tracking error for each Fund during the year was in an expected range.

Board Consideration in Approval of Investment Advisory Contract (Unaudited) (Continued)
Based on its review, the Board concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of services provided by the Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement are reasonable and appropriate in relation to the fees paid to the Advisor, taking special consideration of the fact that the advisory fee is a unitary fee and, as a result, a portion of the unitary advisory fee will be used to compensate the Funds service providers. The Board considered the staffing of the Advisor, including the training, qualifications and experience of investment personnel in managing the Funds. The Board also considered the expertise of the Advisor in supervising third party service providers to the Funds, such as the administrator and the custodian, noting the Advisors extensive work with these service providers (including onsite due diligence sessions) to conduct such supervision. The Board further considered the compliance program of the Advisor, which supports the Funds compliance program.
Advisors Financial Resources. In connection with the assessment of the ability of the Advisor to perform its duties under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Board considered the Advisors financial condition and whether it has the resources necessary to carry out its functions. The Board concluded that the Advisor has the financial resources necessary to perform its obligations under the Investment Advisory Agreement.
Reasonableness of Advisory Fee. The Board compared each Funds advisory fee to that of other pertinent exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and noted that each Funds fee is competitive with the fees of its respective peer group. The Board agreed that it was familiar with the Advisors methodology for selecting each Funds peer group and believed that the Funds peer groups were appropriate. The Board considered that the fee for each of the Funds is a unitary fee pursuant to which the Advisor pays all of the Funds costs (subject to certain specified exceptions). The Board also considered that each Funds portfolio is managed on a day-to-day basis by the Advisor and that the Advisor also provides oversight of day-to-day operations, including monitoring tracking error, providing services in connection with creation and redemption units and assistance in meeting legal and regulatory requirements applicable to the Funds. Based on its review, the Board concluded that the advisory fee for each Fund is reasonable in light of the services provided.
Costs of Services and Profitability. The Board considered the expenses of the Advisor in developing and rendering services provided to the Funds and the information provided by the Advisor to the Board regarding the Funds profitability. The Board considered that the Advisor had provided extensive information about the Advisors profitability and the Advisors methodology in determining profitability. While the Advisor had provided information about the Advisors expenses relating to marketing the Funds, the Board considered the Advisors profitability without accounting for such expenses. The Board determined that, although only some of the Funds were profitable as of this time, the Advisors profitability with respect to each profitable Fund was not excessive. The Board considered whether the Advisor would benefit in other ways from its relationships with the Funds and concluded that there were no material fall-out benefits likely to accrue to the Advisor related to the operation of the Funds.
Economies of Scale. The Board considered that certain Funds had attracted a substantial amount of assets, but determined that those Funds were not experiencing economies of scale beyond what was reflected in each Funds unitary fee, which the Board noted was very competitive. The Board considered that the other Funds were not experiencing economies of scale at this time and determined to revisit this matter after the Funds had attracted more assets.
Given all the information available to it and considering all material factors, the Board concluded that the Investment Advisory Agreement was fair and reasonable and it was unanimously approved.

DBX ETF Trust
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. There are special risks associated with an investments in real estate, including REITS. These risks include credit risk, interest rate fluctuations and the impact of varied economic conditions. Investing in foreign securities, particularly those of emerging markets, present certain risks such as currency fluctuations, political and economical changes, and market risks. Any fund that concentrates in a particular segment of the market will generally be more volatile than a fund that invests more broadly. Emerging markets tend to be more volatile and less liquid than the markets of more mature economies and generally have less diverse and less mature economic structures and less stable political systems than those of developed countries. Funds investing in a single industry, country or in a limited geographic region generally are more volatile than more diversified funds. The European financial markets have recently experienced volatility and adverse trends in recent years due to concerns about economic downturns or rising government debt levels in several European countries, including Greece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal and Spain. A default or debt restructuring by any European country would adversely impact holders of that countrys debt, and sellers of credit default swaps linked to that countrys creditworthiness (which may be located in countries other than those listed in the previous sentence). These events have adversely affected the exchange rate of the euro, the common currency of certain EU countries, and may continue to significantly affect every country in Europe, including countries that do not use the euro. Italy, Portugal and Spain currently have high levels of debt and public spending, which may stifle economic growth, contribute to prolonged periods of recession or lower sovereign debt ratings and adversely impact investments. Investing in derivatives entails special risks relating to liquidity, leverage and credit that may reduce returns and/or increase volatility. Each Fund, except Xtrackers Japan JPX-Nikkei 400 Equity ETF and Xtrackers International Real Estate ETF, is non-diversified and can take larger positions in fewer issues, increasing each Funds potential risk. Performance of a Fund may diverge from that of an Underlying Index due to operating expenses, transaction costs, cash flows, use of sampling strategies or operational inefficiencies. A fund that focuses its investments in Japan can be impacted by the events and developments in Japan, which can adversely affect performance. There are additional risks associated with investing in aggressive growth stocks, non-diversified/concentrated funds and small- and mid-cap stocks which are more fully explained in the prospectuses, as applicable. An investment in any Fund should be considered only as a supplement to a complete investment program for those investors willing to accept the risks associated with that fund. Please read the prospectus for more information.
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.

This code of ethics (the Code) applies to the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer (the Covered Officers, each of whom are set forth in Exhibit A) of the Xtrackers Funds (each a Fund, together the Funds) for the purpose of promoting:
● |
honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships; |
● |
full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that each Fund files with, or submits to, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and in other public communications made by the Funds; |
● |
compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations; |
● |
the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the Code; and |
● |
accountability for adherence to the Code. |
Each Covered Officer should adhere to a high standard of business ethics and should be sensitive to situations that may give rise to actual as well as apparent conflicts of interest.
II. |
COVERED OFFICERS SHOULD HANDLE ETHICALLY ACTUAL AND APPARENT CONFLICTS OF INTEREST |
Overview . A conflict of interest occurs when a Covered Officers private interest interferes with the interests of, or his service to, a Fund. For example, a conflict of interest would arise if a Covered Officer, or a member of his family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his position with the Fund.
Certain conflicts of interest arise out of the relationships between Covered Officers and the Funds, and already are subject to conflict of interest provisions in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (Investment Advisers Act). For example, Covered Officers may not individually engage in certain transactions (such as the purchase or sale of securities or other property) with a Fund because of their status as affiliated persons of the Fund. The compliance programs and procedures of the Funds, and DBX Advisors LLC and/or DBX Strategic Advisors LLC (each, an Adviser, and collectively, the Advisers) are designed to prevent, or identify and correct, violations of these provisions. This Code does not, and is not intended to, repeat or replace these programs and procedures, and such conflicts fall outside of the parameters of this Code.
Although typically not presenting an opportunity for improper personal benefit, conflicts arise from, or as a result of, the contractual relationship between each Fund and its Adviser or sub-adviser, of which the Covered Officers may be officers or employees, or officers or employees of affiliates. As a result, this Code recognizes that the Covered Officers will, in the normal course of their duties (whether formally for the Funds or for the Adviser or sub-adviser, or for both), be involved in establishing policies and implementing decisions that will have different effects on the Adviser or sub-adviser and the Fund. The participation of the Covered Officers in such activities is inherent in the contractual relationship between the Fund and the Adviser or sub-adviser and is consistent with the performance by the Covered Officers of their duties as officers of the Fund. Thus, if performed in conformity with the provisions of the 1940 Act and the Investment Advisers Act, such activities will be deemed to have been handled ethically. In addition, it is recognized by the Funds Board of members (the Board) that the Covered Officers may also be officers or employees of one or more other investment companies covered by this or other codes.
Other conflicts of interest are covered by the Code, even if such conflicts of interest are not subject to provisions in the 1940 Act and the Investment Advisers Act. The following list provides examples of conflicts of interest under the Code, but Covered Officers should keep in mind that these examples are not exhaustive. The overarching principle is that the personal interest of a Covered Officer should not be placed improperly before the interest of a Fund.
* * * *
Each Covered Officer must:
● |
not use his personal influence or personal relationships improperly to influence investment decisions or financial reporting by a Fund whereby the Covered Officer 1 would benefit personally to the detriment of the Fund; |
● |
not cause a Fund to take action, or fail to take action, for the individual personal benefit of the Covered Officer rather than for the benefit of the Fund; and |
● |
not use material non-public knowledge of portfolio transactions made or contemplated for a Fund to trade personally or cause others to trade personally in contemplation of the market effect of such transactions. |
1 |
Any activity or relationship that would present a conflict for a Covered Officer would also present a conflict for the Covered Officer if a member of a Covered Officers family (spouse, minor children and any account over which a Covered Officer is deemed to have beneficial interest) engages in such an activity or has such a relationship. |
2
There are some potential conflict of interest situations that should be discussed with the Funds Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) or designee in order to determine whether these situations pose a material risk of causing detriment to the Fund(s). Examples of these include:
● |
service as a director on the board of any public or private company; |
● |
the receipt of any non-nominal gifts or the conveyance of any value (including entertainment) from any company with which the Fund has current or prospective business dealings, to the extent the situation is not addressed by the Funds 17j-1 Code of Ethics or the Advisers Code of Ethics, except: (a) any non-cash gifts of nominal value (nominal value is less than $100); and (b) customary and reasonable meals and entertainment at which the giver is present, such as the occasional business meal or sporting event; |
● |
the receipt of any entertainment from any company with which the Fund has current or prospective business dealings unless such entertainment is business-related, reasonable in cost, appropriate as to time and place, and not so frequent as to raise any question of impropriety, to the extent the situation is not addressed by the Funds 17j-1 Code of Ethics or the Advisers Code of Ethics; |
● |
any ownership interest in, or any consulting or employment relationship with, any of the Funds service providers, other than the Adviser, principal underwriter, administrator or any affiliated person thereof; and |
● |
a direct or indirect financial interest in commissions, transaction charges or spreads paid by the Fund for effecting portfolio transactions or for selling or redeeming shares other than an interest arising from the Covered Officers employment, such as compensation or equity ownership. |
III. |
DISCLOSURE AND COMPLIANCE |
Each Covered Officer should:
● |
familiarize himself with the disclosure requirements generally applicable to each Fund; |
● |
not knowingly misrepresent, or knowingly cause others to misrepresent, facts about a Fund to others, whether within or outside the Funds, including to the Funds Directors and auditors, and to governmental regulators and self-regulatory organizations; |
● |
to the extent appropriate within his area of responsibility, consult with other officers and employees of a Fund and the Adviser with the goal of promoting full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in the reports and documents the Fund files with, or submits to, the SEC and in other public communications made by the Fund; and |
3
● |
comply with his or her obligations under each Funds Disclosure Controls and Procedures and certification requirements relating to the reports on Form N-CSR (certified shareholder reports) and Form N-PORT (quarterly schedule of portfolio holdings) that the Fund is required to file. |
It is the responsibility of each Covered Officer to promote compliance with the standards and restrictions imposed by applicable laws, rules and regulations.
IV. |
REPORTING AND ACCOUNTABILITY |
Each Covered Officer must:
● |
upon adoption of the Code (or thereafter as applicable, upon becoming a Covered Officer), affirm in writing to the Board that he has received, read, and understands the Code; |
● |
annually thereafter affirm in writing to the Board that he has complied with the requirements of the Code; |
● |
annually disclose affiliations and other relationships related to conflicts of interest; |
● |
not retaliate against any other Covered Officer or any employee of a Fund or its affiliated persons for reports of potential violations that are made in good faith; and |
● |
notify the CCO promptly if he knows of any violation of this Code. Failure to do so is itself a violation of this Code. |
The CCO is responsible for applying this Code to specific situations in which questions are presented under it and has the authority to interpret this Code in any particular situation. Any approvals or waivers sought by the Covered Officers must be considered by the CCO. In rendering decisions and interpretations and in conducting investigations of potential violations under the Code, the CCO may, at the CCOs discretion, consult with such persons as it determines to be appropriate, including, but not limited to, a senior legal officer of the Fund or the Adviser or its affiliates, independent auditors or other consultants, subject to any requirement to seek pre-approval from the Funds audit committee for the retention of independent auditors to perform permissible non-audit services.
Each Fund will follow these procedures in investigating and enforcing this Code:
● |
the CCO will take all appropriate action to investigate any potential violations reported; |
● |
if, after such investigation, the CCO believes that no violation has occurred, the CCO is not required to take any further action; |
4
● |
if the CCO determines that a violation has occurred, it will inform and make a recommendation to the Board Members that are not interested persons of the Fund, as such term is defined in the 1940 Act (Independent Trustees), who will consider appropriate action, which may include: (i) review of, and appropriate modifications to, applicable policies and procedures; (ii) notification to appropriate personnel of the Adviser or its board; or (iii) a recommendation to dismiss the Covered Officer; |
● |
the CCO will be responsible for granting waivers, as appropriate, and will provide a report annually to the Board describing any waivers granted; and |
● |
any changes to or waivers of this Code will, to the extent required, be disclosed as provided by SEC rules. |
V. |
OTHER POLICIES AND PROCEDURES |
This Code shall be the sole code of ethics adopted by each Fund for purposes of Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the rules and forms applicable to registered investment companies thereunder. Insofar as other policies or procedures of the Funds, the Adviser, principal underwriter, or other service providers govern or purport to govern the behavior or activities of the Covered Officers who are subject to this Code, they are superseded by this Code to the extent that they overlap or conflict with the provisions of this Code. The Funds and the Advisers and principal underwriters codes of ethics under Rule 17j-l under the 1940 Act, and any other codes of conduct applicable to such entities, are separate requirements applying to the Covered Officers and others, and are not part of this Code.
VI. |
AMENDMENTS |
Any amendments to this Code, other than amendments to Exhibit A, must be approved or ratified by a majority vote of the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees.
VII. |
CONFIDENTIALITY |
All reports and records prepared or maintained pursuant to this Code will be considered confidential and shall be maintained and protected accordingly. Except as otherwise required by law or this Code, such matters shall not be disclosed to anyone other than a Funds counsel, the Board, independent auditors or other consultants referred to in Section IV, above.

VIII. |
INTERNAL USE |
The Code is intended solely for the internal use by the Funds and does not constitute an admission, by or on behalf of the Funds, as to any fact, circumstance, or legal conclusion.
