Summary/Abstract: Investments on commodity markets have grown in popularity. There are several direct and indirect ways of investing in commodities. One of the most interesting forms of commodity investments are commodity indices. As the Warsaw Commodity Exchange has not created its own index yet, Polish investors have no opportunity to invest in any domestic commodity index. Whereas in Germany there is quoted the Deutsche Bank Liquid Commodity Index created in 1988. The aim of the paper is to assess efficiency of investing in the index in comparison to the stock index DAX. The research covers daily quotations of the two indices from 06.02.2006 to 30.12.2009. These constitutes the basis to calculate fundamental characteristics and to apply proper statistical tests.
