RISKS
Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. Funds that invest in specific countries or geographic regions may be more volatile than investing in broadly diversified funds. Securities focusing on a single country may be more volatile. In addition to the normal risks associated with investing, international investments may involve risk of capital loss from unfavorable currency fluctuations, from differences in generally accepted accounting principles or from economic or political instability in other nations. Emerging markets involve heightened risks related to the same factors as well as increased volatility and lower trading volume. Investments in currency involve additional special risks, such as credit risk, interest rate fluctuations, derivative investment risk including increased volatility and less liquidity, and the effect of varied economic conditions. Under certain circumstances, the fund may be unsuccessful in hedging the fund’s currency exposure.
An investor should consider the db-X MSCI Currency-Hedged Equity Funds’ investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing.
