Fund Description

The investment seeks to track the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the WisdomTree Japan Hedged Equity Index. The fund employs a "passive management" - or indexing - investment approach designed to track the performance of the WisdomTree Japan Hedged Equity Index. It attempts to invest substantially all of its assets in the common stocks that make up the index. The WisdomTree Japan Hedged Equity Index is designed to provide exposure to Japanese equity markets while at the same time neutralizing exposure to fluctuations of the Japanese yen relative to the U.S. dollar. The fund is non-diversified.
