Summary

The upcoming retirement of DWS Short Duration’s lead manager, persistent turnover in the analyst ranks, and an above-average credit risk profile limits its appeal. It warrants a Morningstar Analyst Rating of Neutral on its cheaper share classes, while its priciest share class is rated Negative.
