This report must be preceded or accompanied by a prospectus. To obtain a prospectus for any of our funds, refer to the Account Management Resources information provided in the back of this booklet. We advise you to consider the fund's objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. The prospectus contains this and other important information about the fund. Please read the prospectus carefully before you invest.

Investments in mutual funds involve risk. Some funds have more risk than others. The fund may focus its investments in certain geographical regions, thereby increasing its vulnerability to developments in that region and potentially subjecting the fund's shares to greater shares price volatility. Additionally, investing in foreign securities presents certain unique risks not associated with domestic investments, such as currency fluctuation and political and economic changes and market risks. This fund is also "non-diversified" and can take larger positions in fewer companies, increasing its overall potential risk. All of these factors may result in greater share price volatility. Please read this fund's prospectus for specific details regarding its investments and risk profile.

Performance Summary April 30, 2007

Classes A, B and C

All performance shown is historical, assumes reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions, and does not guarantee future results. Investment return and principal value fluctuate with changing market conditions so that, when redeemed, shares may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Please visit www.dws-scudder.com for the Fund's most recent month-end performance.

The maximum sales charge for Class A shares is 5.75%. For Class B shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) is 4% within the first year after purchase, declining to 0% after six years. Class C shares have no adjustment for front-end sales charges, but redemptions within one year of purchase may be subject to a CDSC of 1%. Unadjusted returns do not reflect sales charges and would have been lower if they had.

The total annual fund operating expense ratios, gross of any fee waivers or expense reimbursements, as stated in the fee table of the prospectus dated March 1, 2007 are 1.81%, 2.88% and 2.70% for Class A, Class B and Class C shares, respectively. Please see the Information About Your Fund's Expenses, the Financial Highlights and Notes to the Financial Statements (Note C, Related Parties) sections of this report for gross and net expense related disclosure for the period ended April 30, 2007.

To discourage short-term trading, the Fund imposes a 2% redemption fee on shareholders redeeming shares held less than 15 days, which has the effect of lowering total return.

Returns and rankings during the 1-year, 3-year, 5-year and 10-year periods for Class B and C shares and the 3-year, 5-year and 10-year periods for Class A shares reflect a fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement. Without this waiver/reimbursement, returns and rankings would have been lower.

Performance figures do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Returns and rankings may differ by share class.

Returns shown for Class A, B and C shares for the periods prior to their inception on May 29, 2001 are derived from the historical performance of Class S shares of DWS Latin America Equity Fund during such periods and have been adjusted to reflect the higher gross total annual operating expenses of each specific class. Any difference in expenses will affect performance.

Information About Your Fund's Expenses

As an investor of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: ongoing expenses and transaction costs. Ongoing expenses include management fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. Examples of transaction costs include sales charges (loads), redemption fees and account maintenance fees, which are not shown in this section. The following tables are intended to help you understand your ongoing expenses (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to help you compare these expenses with the ongoing expenses of investing in other mutual funds. The example in the table is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the six-month period and held for the entire period (November 1, 2006 to April 30, 2007).

The tables illustrate your Fund's expenses in two ways:

Actual Fund Return. This helps you estimate the actual dollar amount of ongoing expenses (but not transaction costs) paid on a $1,000 investment in the Fund using the Fund's actual return during the period. To estimate the expenses you paid over the period, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the "Expenses Paid per $1,000" line under the share class you hold.

Hypothetical 5% Fund Return. This helps you to compare your Fund's ongoing expenses (but not transaction costs) with those of other mutual funds using the Fund's actual expense ratio and a hypothetical rate of return of 5% per year before expenses. Examples using a 5% hypothetical fund return may be found in the shareholder reports of other mutual funds. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period.

Please note that the expenses shown in these tables are meant to highlight your ongoing expenses only and do not reflect any transaction costs. The "Expenses Paid per $1,000" line of the tables is useful in comparing ongoing expenses only and will not help you determine the relative total expense of owning different funds. If these transaction costs had been included, your costs would have been higher.

Expenses and Value of a $1,000 Investment for the six months ended April 30, 2007
Actual Fund Return	Class A	Class B	Class C	Class S
Beginning Account Value 11/1/06	$ 1,000.00	$ 1,000.00	$ 1,000.00	$ 1,000.00

Expenses Paid per $1,000*	$ 8.60	$ 13.22	$ 12.82	$ 7.35

* Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio for each share class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by 365.

Portfolio Management Review

In the following interview, Lead Portfolio Manager Paul Rogers and Portfolio Manager Terrence Gray discuss DWS Latin America Equity Fund's strategy and the market environment during the six-month period ended April 30, 2007.

Q: How did the Latin American stock markets perform during the semiannual period?

A: Stocks in Latin America performed very well during the past six months, building on an uptrend that has been in place since early 2003. The reasons for the rally are both technical and fundamental in nature. With regard to the former, a high level of global liquidity — in other words, the availability of cash to be put to work in the financial markets — has been supportive for all higher-risk asset classes, emerging markets in particular. Latin America has been a key beneficiary of this trend, largely because of the second key factor: its robust fundamentals. The region boasts the strongest economic backdrop in decades, with a large turnaround in its trade accounts, sound fiscal policies and low debt financing requirements. These healthy economic fundamentals have caused investors to view the region as being less risky, and this in turn has led to lower interest rates — an important development since this lowers the financing costs of the region's borrowers. We believe Brazil, Colombia and Peru are all headed toward investment-grade ratings.

Fundamentals are also strong on the corporate level. Relative to other emerging markets, Latin America exhibits some of the highest earnings growth expectations as well as the lowest price-to-earnings ratios. Returns on equity are also among the highest in the world, further supporting Latin equities.

Trends in the currency markets provided an additional benefit to dollar-based investors. While the Mexican peso weakened modestly, this was more than outweighed by the strength of the Brazilian real. As of April 30, 2007, only 2.034 reales were required to purchase one US dollar, compared with 2.145 on October 31, 2006. Since the value of the fund's holdings are translated into dollars, the rising value of the real provided a boost to performance.

Despite this broadly positive environment, the Latin American markets experienced a sharp correction in late February and early March. Although a brief sell-off in China and concerns over subprime mortgages in the United States were cited as reasons for the decline, we believe the contraction in the Latin American markets was largely the result of short-term profit-taking following their spectacular run in 2006. We are encouraged by the speed of the subsequent turnaround in March, which was driven by an upturn in commodity prices and investors' recognition that the region's fundamentals remain solid.

Q: How did the fund perform?

A: The total return of the fund's Class A shares for the six months ended April 30, 2007, was strong on an absolute basis at 22.78%. However, the fund underperformed the 26.61% return of its benchmark, the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) EM (Emerging Markets) Latin America Index, as well as the 25.09% average return of the funds in its Lipper peer group, Latin America Funds.^1,2 (Returns are unadjusted for sales charges. If sales charges had been included, returns would have been lower. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Please see pages 4 through 8 for the performance of other share classes and more complete performance information.)

² The Lipper Latin America Funds category consists of funds which concentrate their investments in equity securities with primary trading markets or operations concentrated in the Latin American region or in a single country within this region. Category returns assume reinvestment of dividends. It is not possible to invest directly into a Lipper category.

Q: What factors influenced performance?

A: The fund did well on an absolute basis, and shareholders who have been in the fund for the past three years have enjoyed a cumulative total return of 235.20% during that time. Still, the fund underperformed the benchmark during the past six months as a result of its being too conservatively positioned to fully participate in the strong rally in the region's markets. Specifically, performance was hurt by the fact the fund did not have a larger weighting in the smaller markets of Chile and Peru, both of which surged on the strength of rising commodities prices. A corresponding overweight in Mexico had a negative impact on performance given that the market was affected by the fears of slower growth in the United States.³

³ "Overweight" means the fund holds a higher weighting in a given sector or security than the benchmark. "Underweight" means the fund holds a lower weighting.

In terms of specific fund holdings that underperformed, positions in the Brazilian discount airliners Gol-Linhas Aereas Inteligentes SA and Tam SA were weighed down by a strike, a mid-air collision involving one of Gol's planes, and industry overcapacity. Both stocks have been sold from the portfolio. In Mexico, notable underperformers were the homebuilder Corporacion GEO SAB de CV ("Geo"), whose shares were pressured by the growing supply of homebuilding stocks available in the Mexican stock market, and the beverage company Fomento Economico Mexicano SA de CV ("Femsa"), which was hurt by weather trends, distribution issues and weak overall beer sales. Also detracting from relative performance were our premature sales of the fund's positions in Southern Copper Corp. and the steel producer Gerdau SA.

On the positive side, performance was helped by our decision to hold underweight positions in the large-cap Mexican stocks Grupo Televisa SA and the cement company Cemex SAB de CV, which was hurt by slowing construction activity in the United States. Also helping returns was our decision to underweight Petroleo Brasiliero SA ("Petrobras") in favor of the mining company Companhia Vale do Rio Doce ("CVRD"), which returned more than 60% on the strength of rising prices for both iron ore and nickel. Other top contributors were Lan Airlines SA, the Chilean airliner, and Net Servicos de Comunicacao SA, a cable television provider in Brazil that is expanding into high-speed Internet and telephone services. Finally, we are pleased to report that three initial public offerings (IPOs) that we purchased for the fund — Grupo FAMSA SAB, a Mexican retailer; Axtel SAB de CV, a telecommunications provider in Mexico; and Lupatech SAB, a Brazilian energy services company — all contributed positively to performance. Our selection proved effective in this area given that only about one in four IPOs outperformed their relative benchmarks over the last 16 months.

Q: What are some notable changes you made to the portfolio during the semiannual period?

A: We reduced our holdings in Mexican companies Cemex, Femsa and Geo on concerns of spreading weakness from the US economy, and purchased Banco Bradesco SA and Banco do Brasil SA, both of which are positioned to take advantage of growing personal wealth in Brazil. Second, we reduced the fund's weighting in larger-capitalization stocks. This shift was achieved largely through the purchase of small-cap Brazilian companies that provide exposure to rising consumer spending in that country. In addition to the IPOs mentioned above, we also purchased shares in the following companies:

All America Latina Logistica	Railroad logistics
Dufry South America Ltd.	Duty free stores
Bematech Industria e Comercio de Equipamentos Eletronicos SA	Technology provider to retailers
Duratex SA	Housing materials
GVT Holding SA	Fixed-line telecommunications
JBS SA	Beef processing

The result is that the fund has shifted down the market capitalization scale, as can be seen in the chart below, and is holding more stocks of $1 to $3 billion in market capitalization. This is not the result of a top-down decision-making process, but rather the fact that our fundamental analysis showed all of these companies to be attractive investments with strong growth profiles. We believe the fund's investment in these companies is an important sign of the growing depth of the Latin American markets.

Greater than $10 billion	63.92	62.29	63.48
Total	100.00	100.00	100.00

Source: Deutsche Bank

Q: What is your overall view of the Latin American markets?

A: As we have expressed in the past, it is natural to expect that Latin American equities will pause for a breather after four years of outperformance. Still, we believe the fundamental factors that underpinned this long rally remain in place. Among our reasons for optimism are the prospects for lower interest rates, stronger currencies, better fiscal and budget discipline, rising disposable income and greater corporate transparency. In addition, with the plethora of new companies coming to market, the opportunity now exists to invest in sectors that in the past were underrepresented — from real estate to health care to insurance to agribusiness.

As always, we acknowledge that Latin America will not be immune if the US economy falls into recession and drags commodity prices lower. However, we believe the combination of low inflation, falling interest rates and healthy balance sheets in the major Latin economies will keep the domestic growth engine on track.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

A. Significant Accounting Policies

DWS Latin America Equity Fund (the "Fund") is a non-diversified series of DWS International Fund, Inc. (the "Corporation") which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Maryland corporation.

The Fund offers multiple classes of shares, which provide investors with different purchase options. Class A shares are offered to investors subject to an initial sales charge. Class B shares are offered without an initial sales charge, but are subject to higher ongoing expenses than Class A shares and a contingent deferred sales charge payable upon certain redemptions. Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares six years after issuance. Class C shares are offered to investors without an initial sales charge but are subject to higher ongoing expenses than Class A shares and a contingent deferred sales charge payable upon certain redemptions within one year of purchase. Class C shares do not convert into another class. Class S shares are not subject to initial or contingent deferred sales charges and are generally not available to new investors except under certain circumstances.

Investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses, and certain fund-level expenses and expense reductions, if any, are borne pro rata on the basis of relative net assets by the holders of all classes of shares, except that each class bears certain expenses unique to that class such as distribution service fees, services to shareholders and certain other class-specific expenses. Differences in class-level expenses may result in payment of different per share dividends by class. All shares of the Fund have equal rights with respect to voting subject to class-specific arrangements.

The Fund's financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which require the use of management estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The policies described below are followed consistently by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

Security Valuation. Investments are stated at value determined as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange on each day the exchange is open for trading. Equity securities are valued at the most recent sale price or official closing price reported on the exchange (US or foreign) or over-the-counter market on which the security is traded most extensively. Securities for which no sales are reported are valued at the calculated mean between the most recent bid and asked quotations on the relevant market or, if a mean cannot be determined, at the most recent bid quotation.

Money market instruments purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less, maturing at par, are valued at amortized cost. Investments in open-end investment companies and Cash Management QP Trust are valued at their net asset value each business day.

Securities and other assets for which market quotations are not readily available or for which the above valuation procedures are deemed not to reflect fair value are valued in a manner that is intended to reflect their fair value as determined in accordance with procedures approved by the Directors. The Fund may use a fair valuation model to value international equity securities in order to adjust for events which may occur between the close of the foreign exchanges and the close of the New York Stock Exchange.

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") released Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" ("FAS 157"). FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. As of April 30, 2007, management does not believe the adoption of FAS 157 will impact the amounts reported in the financial statements, however, additional disclosures will be required about the inputs used to develop the measurements of fair value and the effect of certain of the measurements reported in the statement of operations for a fiscal period.

Foreign Currency Translations. The books and records of the Fund are maintained in US dollars. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into US dollars at the prevailing exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses are translated into US dollars at the prevailing exchange rates on the respective dates of the transactions.

Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net gains and losses between trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the disposition of forward foreign currency exchange contracts and foreign currencies, and the difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and the US dollar amount actually received. That portion of both realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed but is included with net realized and unrealized gain/appreciation and loss/depreciation on investments.

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts. A forward foreign currency exchange contract ("forward currency contract") is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at the settlement date at a negotiated rate. The Fund may enter into forward currency contracts in order to hedge its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates on its foreign currency denominated portfolio holdings and to facilitate transactions in foreign currency denominated securities. The Fund may also engage in forward currency contracts for non-hedging purposes.

Forward currency contracts are valued at the prevailing forward exchange rate of the underlying currencies and unrealized gain (loss) is recorded daily. Sales and purchases of forward currency contracts having the same settlement date and broker are offset and any gain (loss) is realized on the date of offset; otherwise, gain (loss) is realized on settlement date. Realized and unrealized gains and losses which represent the difference between the value of a forward currency contract to buy and a forward currency contract to sell are included in net realized and unrealized gain (loss) from foreign currency related transactions.

Certain risks may arise upon entering into forward currency contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Additionally, when utilizing forward currency contracts to hedge, the Fund gives up the opportunity to profit from favorable exchange rate movements during the term of the contract.

Taxes. The Fund's policy is to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, which are applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Accordingly, the Fund paid no federal income taxes and no federal income tax provision was required.

At October 31, 2006, the Fund has an inherited net tax basis capital loss carryforward of approximately $7,202,000 from a prior year merger which may be applied against certain realized net taxable capital gains each succeeding year until fully utilized or until October 31, 2008, the expiration date, whichever occurs first, and which may be subject to certain limitations under Sections 382-384 of the Internal Revenue Code.

Additionally, based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates related to income, gains and transactions for the foreign jurisdictions in which it invests, the Fund will provide for foreign taxes, and where appropriate, deferred foreign taxes.

The Fund is subject to a 0.38% Contribuicao Provisoria sobre Movimentacao Financiera ("CPMF") transaction tax which is applied to Brazilian Real exchange transactions representing capital inflows or outflows to the Brazilian market.

In July 2006, FASB issued Interpretation No. 48 ("FIN 48"), "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109" (the "Interpretation"). The Interpretation establishes for the Fund a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of positions taken in filing tax returns (including whether the Fund is taxable in certain jurisdictions), and requires certain expanded tax disclosures. The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. On December 22, 2006, the SEC indicated that they would not object if a Fund implements FIN 48 in the first required financial statement reporting period for its fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2006. Management has begun to evaluate the application of the Interpretation to the Fund and is not in a position at this time to estimate the significance of its impact, if any, on the Fund's financial statements.

Distribution of Income and Gains. Net investment income of the Fund, if any, is declared and distributed to shareholders annually. Net realized gains from investment transactions, in excess of available capital loss carryforwards, would be taxable to the Fund if not distributed, and, therefore, will be distributed to shareholders at least annually.

The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gain distributions are determined annually in accordance with federal tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These differences primarily relate to investments in foreign denominated investments, forward currency contracts, recognition of certain foreign currency gains (losses) as ordinary income (loss), and certain securities sold at a loss. As a result, net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such period. Accordingly, the Fund may periodically make reclassifications among certain of its capital accounts without impacting the net asset value of the Fund.

The tax character of current year distributions will be determined at the end of the current fiscal year.

Redemption Fees. For the period from November 1, 2006 to March 11, 2007, the redemption or exchange of shares held for less than 30 days were assessed a fee of 2% of the total amount redeemed or exchanged. Effective March 12, 2007, the Fund imposes a redemption fee of 2% of the total redemption amount on all Fund shares redeemed or exchanged within 15 days of buying them, either by purchase or exchange. This fee is assessed and retained by the Fund for the benefit of the remaining shareholders. The redemption fee is accounted for as an addition to paid-in-capital.

Expenses. Expenses of the Corporation arising in connection with a specific fund are allocated to that fund. Other Corporation expenses which cannot be directly attributed to a fund are apportioned among the funds in the Corporation.

Contingencies. In the normal course of business, the Fund may enter into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet been made. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

Other. Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date plus one basis for daily net asset value calculations. However, for financial reporting purposes, investment security transactions are reported on trade date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date net of foreign withholding taxes. Certain dividends from foreign securities may be recorded subsequent to the ex-dividend date as soon as the Fund is informed of such dividends. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are recorded on an identified cost basis.

B. Purchases and Sales of Securities

During the six months ended April 30, 2007, purchases and sales of investment securities (excluding short-term investments) aggregated $223,357,904 and $304,884,074, respectively.

C. Related Parties

Management Agreement. Under the Investment Management Agreement with Deutsche Investment Management Americas Inc. ("DIMA" or the "Advisor"), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Deutsche Bank AG, the Advisor directs the investments of the Fund in accordance with its investment objectives, policies and restrictions. The Advisor determines the securities, instruments and other contracts relating to investments to be purchased, sold or entered into by the Fund.

Under the Investment Management Agreement with the Advisor, the Fund pays a monthly management fee based on the Fund's average daily net assets accrued daily and payable monthly, at the following annual rates:

First $400 million of the Fund's average daily net assets	1.165%
Over $400 million of such net assets	1.065%

Accordingly, for the six months ended April 30, 2007, the fee pursuant to the Investment Management Agreement was equivalent to an annualized effective rate of 1.11% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Effective October 1, 2006 through September 30, 2007, the Advisor has contractually agreed to waive all or a portion of its management fee and reimburse or pay certain operating expenses of the Fund (excluding certain expenses such as extraordinary expenses, taxes, brokerage, interest and organizational and offering expenses) to the extent necessary to maintain the operating expenses of certain classes as follows:

Class B	2.73%
Class C	2.73%
Class S	1.60%

Administration Fee. Pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement with DIMA, the Advisor provides most administrative services to the Fund. For all services provided under the Administrative Services Agreement, the Fund pays the Advisor an annual fee ("Administration Fee") of 0.10% of the Fund's average daily net assets, computed and accrued daily and payable monthly. For the six months ended April 30, 2007, the Advisor received an Administration Fee of $431,519, of which $75,894 is unpaid.

Service Provider Fees. DWS Scudder Investments Service Company ("DWS-SISC"), an affiliate of the Advisor, is the Fund's transfer agent, dividend-paying agent and shareholder service agent for Class A, B and C shares of the Fund. DWS Scudder Service Corporation ("DWS-SSC"), an affiliate of the Advisor, was the Fund's transfer agent, dividend-paying agent and shareholder service agent for Class S shares of the Fund. Effective April 1, 2007, DWS-SSC merged with DWS-SISC. The Board of the Fund approved a new transfer agency agreement between the Fund and DWS-SISC. The new transfer agency agreement is identical in substance to the previous transfer agency agreement for the Fund, except for the named transfer agent. Pursuant to a sub-transfer agency agreement among DWS-SISC, DWS-SSC (through March 31, 2007) and DST Systems, Inc. ("DST"), DWS-SISC and DWS-SSC compensate DST out of the shareholder servicing fee they receive from the Fund. For the six months ended April 30, 2007, the amounts charged to the Fund by DWS-SISC and DWS-SSC (through March 31, 2007) were as follows:

Services to Shareholders	Total Aggregated	Unpaid at April 30, 2007
Class A	$ 37,730	$ 16,296
Class B	13,297	13,647
Class C	15,344	9,136
Class S	345,060	124,975
	$ 411,431	$ 164,054

Distribution Service Agreement. Under the Distribution Service Agreement, in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, DWS Scudder Distributors, Inc. ("DWS-SDI"), an affiliate of the Advisor, receives a fee ("Distribution Fee") of 0.75% of average daily net assets of Class B and C shares. Pursuant to the agreement, DWS-SDI enters into related selling group agreements with various firms at various rates for sales of Class B and C shares. For the six months ended April 30, 2007, the Distribution Fee was as follows:

Distribution Fee	Total Aggregated	Unpaid at April 30, 2007
Class B	$ 34,346	$ 4,963
Class C	57,278	9,290
	$ 91,624	$ 14,253

In addition, DWS-SDI provides information and administrative services for a fee ("Service Fee") to Class A, B and C shareholders at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of average daily net assets for each such class. DWS-SDI in turn has various agreements with financial services firms that provide these services and pays these fees based upon assets of shareholder accounts the firms service. For the six months ended April 30, 2007, the Service Fee was as follows:

Service Fee	Total Aggregated	Unpaid at April 30, 2007	Annualized Effective Rate
Class A	$ 62,031	$ 24,159	.20%
Class B	10,753	3,328	.24%
Class C	17,941	6,200	.24%
	$ 90,725	$ 33,687

Underwriting Agreement and Contingent Deferred Sales Charge. DWS-SDI is the principal underwriter for the Fund. Underwriting commissions paid in connection with the distribution of Class A shares for the six months ended April 30, 2007 aggregated $21,465.

In addition, DWS-SDI receives any contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") from Class B share redemptions occurring within six years of purchase and Class C share redemptions occurring within one year of purchase. There is no such charge upon redemption of any share appreciation or reinvested dividends. The CDSC is based on declining rates ranging from 4% to 1% for Class B and 1% for Class C, of the value of the shares redeemed. For the six months ended April 30, 2007, the CDSC for Class B and Class C shares aggregated $18,418 and $11,254, respectively. A deferred sales charge of up to 1% is assessed on certain redemptions of Class A shares. For the six months ended April 30, 2007, DWS-SDI received $1,948 for Class A shares.

Typesetting and Filing Service Fees. Under an agreement with DIMA, DIMA is compensated for providing typesetting and certain regulatory filing services to the Fund. For the six months ended April 30, 2007, the amount charged to the Fund by DIMA included in the Statement of Operation under "reports to shareholders" aggregated $12,444, of which $13,320 is unpaid.

Directors' Fees and Expenses. As compensation for his or her services, each Independent Director receives an aggregated annual fee, plus a fee for each meeting attended (plus reimbursement for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with his or her attendance at board and committee meetings) from each fund in the Fund Complex for which he or she serves. In addition, the Chairperson of the Board and the Chairperson of each committee of the Board receive additional compensation for their services. Payment of such fees and expenses is allocated among all such funds described above in direct proportion to their relative net assets.

Cash Management QP Trust. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the SEC, the Fund may invest in the Cash Management QP Trust (the "QP Trust"), and other affiliated funds managed by the Advisor. The QP Trust seeks to provide as high a level of current income as is consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity. The QP Trust does not pay the Advisor a management fee for the affiliated funds' investments in the QP Trust.

D. Investing in Emerging Markets

Investing in emerging markets may involve special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in the United States of America. These risks include revaluation of currencies, high rates of inflation, repatriation restrictions on income and capital, and future adverse political, social and economic developments. Moreover, securities issued in these markets may be less liquid, subject to government ownership controls or delayed settlements and may have their prices more volatile than those of comparable securities of issuers in the United States of America.

E. Line of Credit

The Fund and other affiliated Funds (the "Participants") share in a $750 million revolving credit facility administered by JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A. for temporary or emergency purposes, including the meeting of redemption requests that otherwise might require the untimely disposition of securities. The Participants are charged an annual commitment fee which is allocated, based upon net assets, among each of the Participants. Interest is calculated at the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.35 percent. The Fund may borrow up to a maximum of 25 percent of its net assets under the agreement.

G. Regulatory Matters and Litigation

Regulatory Settlements. On December 21, 2006, Deutsche Asset Management ("DeAM") settled proceedings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and the New York Attorney General on behalf of Deutsche Asset Management, Inc. ("DAMI") and Deutsche Investment Management Americas Inc. ("DIMA"), the investment advisors to many of the DWS Scudder funds, regarding allegations of improper trading of fund shares at DeAM and at the legacy Scudder and Kemper organizations prior to their acquisition by DeAM in April 2002. These regulators alleged that although the prospectuses for certain funds in the regulators' view indicated that the funds did not permit market timing, DAMI and DIMA breached their fiduciary duty to those funds in that their efforts to limit trading activity in the funds were not effective at certain times. The regulators also alleged that DAMI and DIMA breached their fiduciary duty to certain funds by entering into certain market timing arrangements with investors. These trading arrangements originated in businesses that existed prior to the currently constituted DeAM organization, which came together as a result of various mergers of the legacy Scudder, Kemper and Deutsche fund groups, and all of the arrangements were terminated prior to the start of the regulatory investigations that began in the summer of 2003. No current DeAM employee approved these trading arrangements. Under the terms of the settlements, DAMI and DIMA neither admitted nor denied any wrongdoing.

The terms of the SEC settlement, which identified improper trading in the legacy Deutsche and Kemper mutual funds only, provide for payment of disgorgement in the amount of $17.2 million. The terms of the settlement with the New York Attorney General provide for payment of disgorgement in the amount of $102.3 million, which is inclusive of the amount payable under the SEC settlement, plus a civil penalty in the amount of $20 million. The total amount payable by DeAM, approximately $122.3 million, would be distributed to funds in accordance with a distribution plan to be developed by a distribution consultant. The funds' investment advisors do not believe these amounts will have a material adverse financial impact on them or materially affect their ability to perform under their investment management agreements with the DWS funds. The above-described amounts are not material to Deutsche Bank, and have already been reserved.

Among the terms of the settled orders, DeAM is subject to certain undertakings regarding the conduct of its business in the future, including: formation of a Code of Ethics Oversight Committee to oversee all matters relating to issues arising under the advisors' Code of Ethics; establishment of an Internal Compliance Controls Committee having overall compliance oversight responsibility of the advisors; engagement of an Independent Compliance Consultant to conduct a comprehensive review of the advisors' supervisory compliance and other policies and procedures designed to prevent and detect breaches of fiduciary duty, breaches of the Code of Ethics and federal securities law violations by the advisors and their employees; and commencing in 2008, the advisors shall undergo a compliance review by an independent third party.

In addition, DeAM is subject to certain further undertakings relating to the governance of the mutual funds, including that: at least 75% of the members of the Boards of Trustees/Directors overseeing the DWS Funds continue to be independent of DeAM; the Chairmen of the DWS Funds' Boards of Trustees/Directors continue to be independent of DeAM; DeAM maintain existing management fee reductions for certain funds for a period of five years and not increase management fees for certain funds during this period; the funds retain a senior officer (or independent consultants) responsible for assisting in the review of fee arrangements and monitoring compliance by the funds and the investment advisors with securities laws, fiduciary duties, codes of ethics and other compliance policies, the expense of which shall be borne by DeAM; and periodic account statements, fund prospectuses and the mutual funds' web site contain additional disclosure and/or tools that assist investors in understanding the fees and costs associated with an investment in the funds and the impact of fees and expenses on fund returns.

DeAM has also settled proceedings with the Illinois Secretary of State regarding market timing matters. The terms of the Illinois settlement provide for investor education contributions totaling approximately $4 million and a payment in the amount of $2 million to the Securities Audit and Enforcement Fund.

On September 28, 2006, the SEC and the National Association of Securities Dealers ("NASD") announced final agreements in which Deutsche Investment Management Americas Inc. ("DIMA"), Deutsche Asset Management, Inc. ("DAMI") and Scudder Distributors, Inc. ("SDI") (now known as DWS Scudder Distributors, Inc.) settled administrative proceedings regarding disclosure of brokerage allocation practices in connection with sales of the Scudder Funds' (now known as the DWS Scudder Funds) shares during 2001-2003. The agreements with the SEC and NASD are reflected in orders which state, among other things, that DIMA and DAMI failed to disclose potential conflicts of interest to the fund Boards and to shareholders relating to SDI's use of certain funds' brokerage commissions to reduce revenue sharing costs to broker-dealer firms with whom it had arrangements to market and distribute Scudder Fund shares. These directed brokerage practices were discontinued in October 2003.

Under the terms of the settlements, in which DIMA, DAMI and SDI neither admitted nor denied any of the regulators' findings, DIMA, DAMI and SDI agreed to pay disgorgement, prejudgment interest and civil penalties in the total amount of $19.3 million. The portion of the settlements distributed to the funds was approximately $17.8 million and was paid to the funds as prescribed by the settlement orders based upon the amount of brokerage commissions from each fund used to satisfy revenue sharing agreements with broker-dealers who sold fund shares. Based on the prescribed settlement order, the Fund was not entitled to a portion of the settlement.

As part of the settlements, DIMA, DAMI and SDI also agreed to implement certain measures and undertakings relating to revenue sharing payments including making additional disclosures in the fund Prospectuses or Statements of Additional Information, adopting or modifying relevant policies and procedures and providing regular reporting to the fund Boards.

Private Litigation Matters. The matters alleged in the regulatory settlements described above also serve as the general basis of a number of private class action lawsuits involving the DWS funds. These lawsuits name as defendants various persons, including certain DWS funds, the funds' investment advisors and their affiliates, and certain individuals, including in some cases fund Trustees/Directors, officers, and other parties. Each DWS fund's investment advisor has agreed to indemnify the applicable DWS funds in connection with these lawsuits, or other lawsuits or regulatory actions that may be filed making similar allegations.

Based on currently available information, the funds' investment advisors believe the likelihood that the pending lawsuits will have a material adverse financial impact on a DWS fund is remote and such actions are not likely to materially affect their ability to perform under their investment management agreements with the DWS funds.
