DBX ETF Trust - Xtrackers S&P 500 Value Scored & Screened ETF (XOEX) is an exchange-traded fund that seeks investment results corresponding generally to the performance, before fees and expenses, of the S&P 500 Value Scored & Screened Index. The fund employs a passive indexing strategy, investing at least 80% of its net assets in securities of the Underlying Index, which applies value scoring, growth ranking, and ESG screens to select companies from the S&P 500 Value Index; it targets approximately 75% of the float-adjusted market capitalization of the eligible universe, focusing on large-cap U.S. equities with higher value characteristics and minimum ESG standards. The ETF holds around 250 securities, with holdings concentrated in sectors such as financials, industrials, and healthcare, serving institutional and retail investors seeking value-oriented exposure with ESG considerations.
In a significant recent development, the fund underwent a ticker symbol change from SNPV to XOEX, accompanied by a shift in its investment objective from tracking the S&P 500 Value Scored & Screened Index to the S&P 100 Ex-Top 20 Select Index, enhancing its focus on broader S&P 500 constituents excluding the largest 20 by market cap. This reorganization reflects ongoing product evolution within the DBX ETF Trust, managed by DBX Advisors LLC, a division of DWS Group, which oversees a suite of Xtrackers ETFs domiciled in the United States.
DBX ETF Trust, established in 2011 and headquartered in New York, New York, operates primarily in the U.S. equity ETF segment, offering investors diversified access to indexed strategies across various asset classes; XOEX targets the large-value category with a net expense ratio of approximately 0.10%-0.20% and assets under management in the range of $2-3 billion. The fund trades on major U.S. exchanges like Nasdaq and BATS, with no reported recent acquisitions, partnerships, or funding rounds specific to this product, though DWS continues to expand its Xtrackers platform globally.
