WisdomTree Launches Cybersecurity Fund (WCBR) - Seite 2

WCBR: What’s Under the Hood?
The WisdomTree Cybersecurity Fund (WCBR) aims to offer exposure to high-growth companies that drive key developments and innovations in the pure-play cybersecurity market over the medium to long term.

In order to determine if a company is primarily involved in cybersecurity activities, the following are considered:

• Exposure to Cybersecurity Development Themes: The key themes include privacy and digital trust, cloud security, shift-left², smarter security, security of things, perimeter-less world, and resilience and recovery.
• Specialist Information: Specialist information identifies cyber-relevant companies, leveraging the research techniques of Team8.
• Focus and Growth: The weighting mechanism of selected cybersecurity companies takes into account the extent of a company’s overall involvement in the cybersecurity development themes noted above while also tilting toward companies with higher revenue growth rates.
  

Jarrett Lilien, WisdomTree President and Chief Operating Officer, said, “WisdomTree and Team8 share a strong belief that the best way to invest and participate in market change is to identify the products and services with the most creative and effective solutions for those changes. As a remote-first workplace ourselves, we are driving innovations that are transforming the modern workplace. We are now using this first-hand perspective in our fund launches, as we did with our global launch of the WisdomTree Cloud Computing Fund (WCLD), and as we are doing now with the launch of the WisdomTree Cybersecurity Fund.”

In addition to the U.S., a UCITS ETF also launched today in Europe on the London Stock Exchange, Borsa Italiana and Börse Xetra.

There are risks associated with investing, including possible loss of principal.

WCBR invests in cybersecurity companies, which generate a meaningful part of their revenue from security protocols that prevent intrusion and attacks to systems, networks, applications, computers, and mobile devices. Cybersecurity companies are particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technology, rapid obsolescence of products and services, the loss of patent, copyright and trademark protections, government regulation and competition, both domestically and internationally. Cybersecurity company stocks, especially those which are internet related, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations in the past that have often been unrelated to their operating performance. These companies may also be smaller and less experienced companies, with limited product or service lines, markets or financial resources and fewer experienced management or marketing personnel. The Fund invests in the securities included in, or representative of, its Index regardless of their investment merit and the Fund does not attempt to outperform its Index or take defensive positions in declining markets. The composition of the Index is heavily dependent on quantitative and qualitative information and data from one or more third parties, and the Index may not perform as intended.
