No offer

The information on this website does not constitute a solicitation or an offer or, unless expressly stated otherwise, a recommendation to buy or sell investment products or to carry out any other transactions. For persons with citizenship or domicile of for entities with domicile in countries that, on the basis of local legislation, do prohibit the access to investment products in the nature and form of distribution chosen here, access to the information on this website is not permitted. This also applies to the distribution of prospectuses. Investors subject to a jurisdiction that does not permit the aforementioned acceptance and management of assets shall be rejected.
The sole binding basis for the acquisition of units of collective investments schemes is the relevant fund agreement, the prospectus and, if available, the corresponding statement of accounts, annual report or semi-annual report. Prospective investors can obtain the fund agreement, the prospectus, as well as the annual and semi-annual reports of Swiss collective investment schemes, free of charge from DWS Schweiz GmbH, Uraniastrasse 9, 8001 Zurich, from the Swiss fund management company, State Street Fondsleitung AG or the custodian bank State Street Bank GmbH, Munich, Zurich branch.

The circulation of the information contained herein and the offer of the relevant units of collective investments schemes is prohibited in many countries unless relevant notification was submitted to and/or permission was obtained from the local supervisory authorities. Insofar as no such notification was given or permission obtained, there is no presumption of any offer relating to the acquisition of any units of collective investments schemes. In case of doubt, we recommend you contacting a local DWS Investments sales office (of the Deutsche Bank Group).

Restriction of sales

The units of collective investments schemes of as set out herein may only be offered or sold in countries that expressly permit such an offer or sale. This is not the case in the United States. Units of these collective investments schemes must therefore not be offered or sold in the United States neither for or on account of US persons (in the context of the definitions for the purposes of US federal laws on securities, goods and taxes, including Regulation S in relation to the United States Securities Act of 1933). Subsequent unit transfers in the United States and/or to US persons are not permitted. Any documents of collective investments schemes as set out in this website must not be circulated in the United States.
