Changes to WisdomTree Emerging Markets Equity Income UCITS ETF, WisdomTree Europe Equity UCITS ETF and WisdomTree UK Equity Income UCITS ETF
On or around the 6 May 2020 there will be an amendment to the methodology of the WisdomTree Emerging Markets High Dividend Index, the WisdomTree Europe Equity Income Index and the WisdomTree UK Equity Income Index, which WisdomTree Emerging Markets Equity Income UCITS ETF, WisdomTree Europe Equity UCITS ETF and WisdomTree UK Equity Income UCITS ETF track respectively.
The methodologies will incorporate a new screening and weighting adjustment based on a composite risk score.
Stocks that would initially be eligible based on the dividend yield screen will be removed if they fall within the bottom quintile (20%) of the universe based on the composite risk score.
Eligible companies that pass both screens will then be weighted by their adjusted dividend stream, i.e., companies projected to pay more dividends and have higher composite risk scores will be more heavily weighted.
The change to the index methodologies will only cause a change in the underlying components of the index at the next rebalance date.

Proposta di conversione della società in un ICAV e transizione al modello di regolamento ICSD
Oggi i comparti (Fondi) di WisdomTree Issuer PLC (l’Emittente) effettuano negoziazioni in tutte le azioni utilizzando il modello di regolamento CSD (central securities depositaries). Nel Regno Unito, il regolamento avviene tramite il CSD locale, Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited (il Sistema CREST). Tuttavia, poiché i Fondi sono quotati su più borse valori il regolamento avviene su più CSD locali. Questo è stato, ed è ancora, il modello operativo standard per quasi tutti i fondi domiciliati in Irlanda.
Dal 29 marzo 2021, l’emittente perderà la possibilità di utilizzare il Sistema CREST come CSD emittente.
Per continuare a emettere azioni, si propone di trasferire il regolamento della negoziazione nelle azioni alla struttura ICSD (International Central Securities Depositary) (il Modello di regolamento ICSD) ad agosto 2020.
Al fine di facilitare una transizione razionalizzata all’ICSD per l’Emittente, è stato proposto anche che la forma giuridica di quest’ultimo passi da public limited company a Irish collective asset-management vehicle (ICAV) ad maggio del 2020, cambiando denominazione sociale in “WisdomTree Issuer ICAV”. La forma giuridica dell’ICAV è specifica per i fondi di investimento e consente una transizione all’ICSD più fluida e meno dispendiosa in termini di tempo rispetto allo schema da seguire per le public limited company.

Modifiche al prodotto WisdomTree US Equity Income UCITS ETF
Dal 20 dicembre 2019 la metodologia dell’Indice WisdomTree US Equity Income Index, che questo fondo replica, subirà una modifica.
La metodologia ingloberà un nuovo processo di screening e di correzione delle ponderazioni basato su un punteggio di rischio composito.
I titoli inizialmente eleggibili sulla base dello screening dei rendimenti da dividendo saranno rimossi nel caso in cui scendano nel quintile inferiore (20%) dell’universo sulla base del punteggio di rischio composito.
Le aziende eleggibili che supereranno entrambi gli screening saranno in seguito ponderate per il loro dividend stream corretto, ossia: le aziende che si prevede paghino più dividendi e abbiano punteggi di rischio compositi più alti avranno una ponderazione superiore.
