Item 8.01 |
Other Events |
Effective November 10, 2025, changes will be made to the DBIQ Optimum Yield Diversified Commodity Index Excess ReturnTM (the "Index"), the index the Invesco DB Commodity Index Tracking Fund seeks to track. The changes to the Index are being implemented by Deutsche Bank AG, the Index provider. A summary of the changes are as follows:
1. Expanded Commodity Universe |
• Eligible commodities will be determined annually based on their liquidity and economic importance. • Under the new methodology, the number of commodities included in the Index universe is expected to expand. |
|
2. Modified Optimum Yield Methodology |
• The current Optimum Yield methodology will be modified to eliminate contracts with limited liquidity. |
|
3. Annual Review of Base Weights and Commodities |
• The current static allocations to commodities will be changed by implementing a rules-based annual review to better reflect current global production and market liquidity. |
|
4. Weight Limits (Annually at Rebalance) |
• Implementation of sector and single commodity caps and floors to reduce concentration risk. |
|
5. Intra-year Rebalancing Events |
• An intra-year rebalance event will be triggered should a large deviation occur on a monthly observation date to help prevent significant deviations from annual rebalance target weights. |
The changes described herein will not effect the Fund's Investment Objective.
