Directors Report The number of subfunds (the SubFunds and individually the SubFund ) in DB Platinum IV decreased during the course of the fiscal year 216217. The following SubFunds have been liquidated: DB Platinum IV Equity Factor Premia (liquidated on 14 July 216) DB Platinum IV Dynamic Cash (liquidated on 7 November 216) DB Platinum IV MW Helium (liquidated on 3 December 216) The SubFunds of DB Platinum IV cover a wide range of economic exposures: short term fixed income, bond, equity, hedge funds and commodities to both retail and institutional clients. DB Platinum IV Sovereign Plus The Investment Objective of the SubFund is to provide the Shareholders with a return linked to the performance of the Deutsche Bank Sovereign Plus Index TM. The index is intended to reflect the total return performance of two indices, the Deutsche Bank Euro Sovereign Elite Index TM (the Fixed Income Index ) and the Deutsche Bank Liquid Commodity (Mean Reversion) Euro Index TM (the Commodity Index ). The Fixed Income Index is intended to reflect the total return performance of sovereign bonds that (1) are selected from the DBIQ Global Sovereign Index, one of the Deutsche Bank Index Quantitative family of fixed income indices as published on the following website http://index.db.com and that are issued by Eurozone sovereign issuers ("Selection Pool") and that (2) have an AAA rating. The Commodity Index is intended to reflect the performance of six commodities (Crude Oil, Heating Oil, Aluminium, Gold, Wheat and Corn) which at or about the Launch Date represent some of the most liquid commodities. The Commodity Index is composed of notional amounts of each of the commodities. The minimum Fixed Income Index weight is 7% and the maximum Commodity Index weight is 3% upon such reweighting.

These Strategies will generally select a number of shares with the lowest positive CROCI Economic Price Earnings Ratio ( CROCI Economic P/Es ) from a universe comprising respectively European, US and Japanese equities by market capitalisation and for which CROCI Economic P/Es are calculated by the CROCI Investment and Valuation Group. CROCI Economic P/Es are not calculated for companies in the financial sector, which are therefore not eligible for selection. 5

Directors Report (continued) DB Platinum IV Sovereign Optima 234 The Investment Objective of the SubFund is to outperform, on an expected yield basis, a specified German sovereign bond over the lifetime of the SubFund by providing Shareholders with exposure to a notional dynamic portfolio of high grade bonds or debt securities (the Reference Assets ) and asset swap transaction(s) (the Asset Swap(s) ) on such Reference Assets. Deutsche Asset Management International GmbH, in its capacity as portfolio advisor to the Management Company, will use a rulebased strategy called the Sovereign Optima Strategy which aims to suggest the bonds comprising the Reference Assets with the highest Intrinsic Value (which is determined by using the present value of the Asset Swap spread of each such bond comprising the Reference Assets above the asset swap spread of the specified German sovereign bond) upon the date of a rebalancing, after taking into account expected transaction costs and further adjustments such as, but not limited to, liquidity or the Investment Restrictions.

NAV per Share SEK 112,737.68 EUR 132,18.6 DB Platinum IV Systematic Alpha The Investment Objective of the SubFund is to achieve longterm capital appreciation by gaining exposure to a range of financial instruments (derivatives) in accordance with a computerbased trading strategy (Strategy) designed by Winton Capital Management Limited ( Winton ). Such investments may include derivatives linked to commodities (including energy, metals and crops), share indices, tradeable debt (bonds), interest rates and currencies. In particular, the Sub Fund may invest in (i) agreements where one party agrees to buy or sell eligible assets in the future at a particular price within a fixed term (futures contracts) and agreements where one party has the option to buy or sell future contracts at a particular price within a fixed term (options), traded on recognised exchanges, (ii) foreign currency contracts, (iii) overthecounter derivatives giving exposure to financial indices and/or eligible assets (together, Derivatives Portfolio). Winton will manage the Derivatives Portfolio. In addition, the SubFund will make investments in transferable securities, including eligible commodity linked transferable securities, as are required in order that the SubFund s investments in the Derivatives Portfolio and transferable securities together give effect to the Strategy. State Street Global Advisors Limited will manage the transferrable securities.

The Sub Fund will also aim to provide the Shareholders with a Final Payout upon the Maturity Date of each relevant Share Class. The SubFund will enter into one or more derivative contracts with the swap counterparty(ies) to (i) swap most subscription proceeds for the return on a portfolio comprised of bonds issued by financial institutions, companies, certain special purpose vehicles and governments of certain developed countries, cash deposits and other assets determined by the SubFund's directors and (ii) swap the expected income and expected performance of that portfolio, as well as hedging certain market risks such as foreign exchange risks of the bonds against the dividend payment.

To achieve the Investment Objective, Clinton Group, Inc. (the Investment Manager ) will follow a systematic quantitative trading strategy that attempts to exploit pricing aberrations in equity markets based on the forecasts of its proprietary quantitative equity strategy models. Utilising these models, the Investment Manager intends to take long and short positions, predominantly in the shares of a large number of publicly traded companies. The Investment Manager seeks to generate returns primarily from individual security selection ( alpha ) as opposed to overall market exposure ( beta ). Returns are expected to be derived from both capital appreciation and investment income. 9

Responsibility of the "reviseur d'entreprises agree" Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing as adopted for Luxembourg by the "Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier". Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the judgement of the "reviseur d'entreprises agree", including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the "reviseur d'entreprises agree" considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Board of Directors of the SICAV, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Opinion In our opinion, the financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of DB Platinum IV and of each of its SubFunds as of 31 January 217, and of the results of their operations and changes in their net assets for the year then ended in accordance with Luxembourg legal and regulatory requirements relating to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements. Other matter Supplementary information included in the annual report has been reviewed in the context of our mandate but has not been subject to specific audit procedures carried out in accordance with the standards described above. Consequently, we express no opinion on such information. However, we have no observation to make concerning such information in the context of the financial statements taken as a whole.
