WisdomTree Japan Equity UCITS ETF CHF Hedged Acc is an exchange-traded fund that provides targeted exposure to Japanese equities, specifically dividend-paying, export-oriented companies meeting WisdomTree’s ESG criteria. Launched on February 2, 2016, and domiciled in Ireland as a UCITS-compliant vehicle, it tracks the WisdomTree Japan CHF-Hedged Equity UCITS Index using physical replication via a sampling technique. The fund is accumulating, reinvesting dividends to enhance share price growth, with a total expense ratio of 0.45% per annum. Currency hedging to the Swiss Franc (CHF) minimizes volatility from Japanese Yen fluctuations through monthly rolled forward contracts. Key sectors include industrials (around 25%), consumer discretionary (20%), and financials (19%), with top holdings like Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group and Toyota Motor. Comprising nearly 490 stocks across large, mid, and small caps, it emphasizes fundamentally weighted selection based on dividends, quality, and momentum scores, excluding firms failing ESG or risk standards. With approximately €12 million in assets, it offers investors a hedged pathway to Japan’s export-driven market dynamics.
