This investment product aims to replicate the inverse price and yield movements of the Deutsche Bank Liquid Commodity Index - Optimum Yield Oil Excess Return, prior to fees and expenses. It is structured for investors who wish to take a "short" position, meaning they would benefit if the underlying index declines. The index itself is a rules-based measure, derived from futures contracts on West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil, and is designed to reflect the broader performance of crude oil.
