WisdomTree branches out in France and Sweden
WisdomTree’s UCITS ETFs are now available for sale in France and Sweden.
The firm, which currently has a total of 26 UCITS ETFs listed across five exchanges, has also made new hires to support its growth.
“As a firm, we constantly look for areas where we think we can make an impact,” said Nizam Hamid, head of ETF strategy, Europe.
“France is one of the largest ETF markets in Europe, and Sweden have a strong history of adopting innovative and alternative index strategies, especially in the transparent, cost-effective ETF structure.”
