Fund Description: WisdomTree Global Hedged SmallCap Dividend Fund is an exchange-traded index fund or Index ETF which is a separate investment portfolio of WisdomTree Trust, an open-end investment management company. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE: The WisdomTree Global Hedged SmallCap Dividend Fund seeks investment results that closely correspond to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the WisdomTree Global Hedged SmallCap Dividend Index. INDEX DESCRIPTION: The WisdomTree Global Hedged SmallCap Dividend Index is a fundamentally weighted index designed to provide exposure to small-capitalization companies selected from the WisdomTree Global Dividend Index (Parent Index), which defines the dividend-paying universe of companies in the United States, developed countries, and emerging markets throughout the world, while at the same time neutralizing exposure to fluctuations between the value of foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar. Companies that pay a greater total dollar amount of dividends are more heavily weighted. As of the date of this Prospectus, non-U.S. equity securities comprise a majority of the Index, The Index methodology includes volume factor adjustments such that if a component security does not meet certain trading volume thresholds, the security will either be eliminated from inclusion in the Index or its weight in the Index will be reduced and reallocated pro rata among the other securities. The following sectors are included in the Index: consumer discretionary, consumer staples, energy, financials, health care, industrials, information technology, materials, telecommunication services, and utilities. A sector is comprised of multiple industries. As of the date of this Prospectus, a significant portion of the Index is comprised of companies in the consumer discretionary, financial and industrial sectors. The Index hedges against fluctuations in the relative value of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar. Forward currency contracts or futures contracts are used to offset the Fund’s exposure to the foreign currencies represented in the Index. FUND STRATEGY: The Fund employs a passive management or indexing investment approach designed to track the performance of the Index. The Fund generally uses a representative sampling strategy to achieve its investment objective, meaning it generally will invest in a sample of securities in the Index (including indirect investments through the WisdomTree Global SmallCap Dividend Fund (the Underlying Fund) whose risk, return and other characteristics resemble the risk, return, and other characteristics of the Index as a whole. Under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s total assets (exclusive of collateral held from securities lending) will be invested in component securities of the Index (including indirect investments in the Underlying Fund) and investments that have economic characteristics that are substantially identical to the economic characteristics of such component securities. The Underlying Fund tracks the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the WisdomTree Global SmallCap Dividend Index (the Underlying Fund Index). The Index and the Underlying Fund Index have identical component securities and employ identical methodologies except that the Underlying Fund Index does not hedge against currency fluctuations. The Underlying Fund, which is also advised by WisdomTree Asset Management, Inc., may constitute a substantial portion of the Fund’s assets. FUND MANAGEMENT: WisdomTree Asset Management, Inc. serves as the investment advisor to the Fund. Mellon Capital Management Corporation serves as sub-adviser to the Fund.
