Fund Description

The investment seeks to track the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the WisdomTree SmallCap Dividend Index. The fund employs a "passive management" - or indexing - investment approach designed to track the performance of the WisdomTree SmallCap Dividend Index. It attempts to invest all, or substantially all, of its assets in the common stocks that make up the index. The index is a fundamentally weighted index measuring the performance of the small-capitalization segment of the U.S. dividend-paying market. The fund is non-diversified.
