New York, NY & Mexico City--(HISPANIC PR WIRE - BUSINESS WIRE)--June 26, 2006--Deutsche Bank announced today that the DB Commodity Index Tracking Fund (DBC), which launched on the American Stock Exchange in February, will now also be available on the international segment of the Mexican Stock Exchange, Bolsa Mexicana de Valores, under the same symbol.
DBC is the first commodity index-linked fund to be listed on the U.S. and Mexican stock exchanges, and offers investors transparency and access to the Deutsche Bank Liquid Commodity Index - Excess Return Optimum Yield (TM) (DBLCI-OY). DBLCI-OY is a rules-based index comprised of six liquid futures contracts: crude oil, heating oil, gold, aluminum, corn and wheat. The DBLCI-OY utilizes roll rules, which tend to maximize the benefits of rolling in backwardated markets and minimize the loss from rolling in contangoed markets. DBC also generates interest on cash invested in the tracking fund.
"DBC is designed for investors seeking portfolio diversification and exposure to global commodity returns, which have low to negative correlation to equities and bonds, without the complication and difficulty of investing directly in futures contracts or in the commodities themselves," said Kevin Rich, Chief Executive Officer of DB Commodity Services LLC, the managing owner of DBC. "DBC is also the first and only commodity index tracking fund to list on the Bolsa, giving local investors unprecedented access to the commodity markets."
There are risks involved with investing in DBC, including possible loss of money. DBC is an exchange-traded fund and is not actively managed. It is subject to risks similar to stocks, including those related to short selling and margin account maintenance. Ordinary brokerage commissions apply.
An investor should consider DBC's investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. For this and more complete information about DBC call 877-369-4617 or visit the website http://www.dbcfund.db.com for a copy of the prospectus. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing. ALPS Distributors, Inc.provides distribution services for DBC. This announcement does not constitute an offer to buy or sale securities in Mexico in terms of the Mexican Securities Laws (Ley del Mercado de Valores).
