DWS Plans to Ax B Shares


Fundsters keeping track of firms scrapping B shares have another name to add to the list: DWS Investments. The New York-based fund firm will cease sales of B shares on March 1, 2010, according a November 30 SEC filing, and those shares already held will convert to class A shares after six years. DWS has 40 mutual funds that will be affected by the change.

Meanwhile, Virtus Investment Partners stopped selling B shares on Tuesday. The firm first unveiled its plans in September.
