- WisdomTree Emerging Markets SmallCap Dividend Fund (DGS) is an exchange-traded fund that seeks to track the investment results, before fees and expenses, of the WisdomTree Emerging Markets SmallCap Dividend Index, which comprises dividend-paying small-cap companies in emerging market regions. The fund provides exposure to approximately 1,062 holdings, primarily in small-cap equities (49.38% small-cap weighting, 50.62% mid-cap) from countries including Taiwan (25.49%), South Korea (14.19%), China (9.80%), India (9.79%), and South Africa (8.63%); top holdings feature United Integrated Services Co., Ltd., Old Mutual Limited, and Growthpoint Properties Limited. It offers a dividend yield of around 4.23%, with quarterly distributions, an expense ratio of 0.58%, and total assets under management exceeding $1.65 billion as of mid-2025. Launched on October 30, 2007 and issued by WisdomTree, Inc., headquartered in New York, the fund targets investors seeking income and growth from emerging markets small-cap dividend payers, complementing broader emerging market strategies with a focus on local economic expansion. The underlying index employs a rules-based, fundamentally weighted methodology that selects small-capitalization dividend-paying companies, risk-screened using composite scores for quality and momentum, with annual reconstitution and rebalancing; recent rebalances in 2024 and 2025 adjusted components such as dropping certain securities due to corporate actions and incorporating ESG criteria in related UCITS versions. In recent developments, WisdomTree completed the acquisition of Ceres Partners, LLC in late 2025, expanding its product offerings, while reporting record firm-wide assets under management of $139 billion in November 2025 amid diversified inflows across U.S. equity, commodities, fixed income, and cryptocurrency categories. The firm launched new UCITS ETF ranges in December 2025, including Value-focused products (global, European, U.S.) with TERs of 0.20%-0.25%, and earlier in March tokenized funds like the Equity Premium Income Digital Fund on WisdomTree Prime platform, alongside Europe Defence and Uranium/Nuclear Energy ETFs. DGS itself underwent standard 2025 index rebalancing on October 15, with no major component changes noted, maintaining its focus amid WisdomTree's broader innovation in smart-beta and digital assets.
