By GlobalDataAdditionally, WisdomTree has launched smart alternative strategies to all investors in the ETF structure, which follow rules-based passive indexes and provide daily liquidity, lower fees, transparency, and potentially more favourable tax treatment.
WisdomTree director of research Jeremy Schwartz said: "Data shows that blending a long/short index with traditional equity and bond allocations has improved risk-adjusted returns.
"WisdomTree’s strategies challenge the traditional long/short and hedge fund community with systematic, liquid long/short index-based ETFs. DYLS and DYB are designed to generate alpha at the core through quantitative and fundamental stock selection – while also having the ability to hedge market risk dynamically," Schwartz added.
