Overview
Issuer DescriptionWisdomTree was established in 1985 with the aim of offering Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) that prioritize both cost efficiency and potential for performance. WisdomTree recently has expanded its offerings to include tokenized assets through its platforms WisdomTree Prime and WisdomTree Connect. These platforms allow users to engage with a variety of tokenized products, such as digital funds and real-world assets (RWAs), on blockchain networks like Ethereum. The tokens issued by WisdomTree represent assets such as U.S. Treasuries, including short- and long-term Treasuries, with a focus on using tokenization to improve transparency and access, most notably FLTTX, WTSTX, WTTSX, TIPSX, WTLGX and WTGXX. These tokens are part of WisdomTree's broader strategy to create a seamless bridge between traditional finance and the evolving world of digital finance offering investors the ability to trade, store, and manage these assets on-chain. The tokens can be held directly by investors or managed through third-party custodians, enhancing both flexibility and security. WisdomTree advises investors to thoroughly understand the investment risks, fees, and objectives, recommending a review of the prospectus available through their website or upon request.
