WisdomTree Europe Hedged SmallCap Equity Index
The WisdomTree Europe Hedged SmallCap Equity Index is designed to provide exposure to the European equity markets while at the same time neutralizing exposure to fluctuations of the Euro movements relative to the U.S. dollar. In this sense, the Index “hedges” against fluctuations in the relative value of the Euro against the U.S. dollar. The Index is designed to have higher returns than an equivalent non-currency hedged investment when the Euro is weakening relative to the U.S. dollar. Conversely, the Index is designed to have lower returns than an equivalent unhedged investment when the Euro is rising relative to the U.S. dollar. The Index is comprised of the bottom 10% of the market capitalization of the European companies traded in Euros from the WisdomTree International Equity Index. The component securities are weighted in the Index based on annual cash dividends paid with the following caps: maximum individual position capped at 2%, maximum sector weight capped at 25%, and maximum country weight capped at 25%.
