July 5, 2013--db X-trackers, the exchange-traded product arm of Deutsche Bank, is closing 36 exchange-traded products, citing a lack of demand as gold and commodity funds are hit by outflows.

The ETP issuer said today it is closing and de-listing 18 exchange-traded funds and 18 exchange-traded commodity products across Europe, after they generated “sustainably low levels of interest”, according to Manooj Mistry, Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management head of ETPs for Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management reviews ETP product line-up to meet investor demand in 2013 and beyond

July 5, 2013--Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management has undertaken a review of its exchange-traded fund (ETF) and exchange-traded commodity (ETC) product line-up with a view to bringing it in line with current and future investor demand.

This will involve the de-listing and closure of certain ETFs and ETCs that have demonstrated sustained small levels of demand, while focusing on key areas of growth.

"The exchange-traded products market in Europe has reached a point of development where it makes sense for us to review our overall product line-up to bring it in line with current and expected future demand, placing us in a strong position to optimally serve users of our ETFs and ETCs," said Manooj Mistry, head of exchange-traded products, EMEA, at Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management. “We have therefore undertaken a process of review to identify which areas we should focus on developing and which products are generating sustainably low levels of interest."

Financial Transaction Tax: wide scope and attention to pension funds and SMEs

July 3, 2013-- Parliament kept up the pressure on Wednesday for a comprehensive financial transaction tax in 11 EU countries with a wide scope and rates of 0.1% for trades in stocks and bonds and 0.01% for those in derivatives.

Lower rates should apply until 1 January 2017 for trades in sovereign bonds and pension fund industry trades. Finally, a new legal ownership principle was inserted to make tax avoidance more costly.

Anni Podimata (S&D, EL), Parliament's lead MEP on the matter welcomed Parliament' s tenacity. "Parliament has stayed true. We have taken a consistent line. We strongly believe that such a tax is the way the sector can contribute to emerging from the crisis and returns to its proper job of serving the real economy", she said. The resolution was passed by 522 votes to 141, with 42 abstentions.
