For years, restrictions by the Chinese government limited investing directly in the Chinese equities known as China A-shares. Now, those restrictions are easing and investors willing to accept the risks associated with investing in China can access the growth potential of one of the world's fastest-growing economies — with Deutsche X-trackers Harvest CSI 500 China A-Shares Small Cap ETF (ASHS), the first exchange-traded fund to offer U.S. investors direct access to small-cap China A-share equities. The Deutsche X-trackers Harvest CSI 500 China A-Shares Small Cap ETF seeks investment results that correspond generally to the performance, before fees and expenses, of the China Securities 500 Index (CSI 500 Index). The index aims to track 500 small cap companies listed on the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchanges.
