- WisdomTree USD Floating Rate Treasury Bond UCITS ETF USD (ticker: WDMTF, ISIN: IE00BJFN5P63) is an exchange-traded fund that seeks to track the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the Bloomberg U.S. Treasury Floating Rate Bond Index. The ETF provides diversified exposure to newly issued U.S. government floating rate notes, which feature variable yields designed to reflect changes in short-term U.S. interest rates, thereby offering lower duration risk, reduced corporate credit exposure, and government-backed coupons; it physically replicates the index, distributes income quarterly, and carries a total expense ratio of 0.15%. Launched on March 21, 2019, and domiciled in Ireland as part of the WisdomTree Issuer ICAV umbrella structure, the fund targets institutional and retail investors seeking ultra-short-term USD bond solutions with minimal interest rate sensitivity.
Issued and managed under WisdomTree, Inc. (NYSE: WT), a global financial innovator founded in 1985 and headquartered in New York City, the ETF operates within WisdomTree's broader fixed income segment alongside equity, commodity, alternative, and multi-asset exchange-traded products (ETPs), models, and tokenized solutions. WisdomTree serves financial advisors, institutional investors, and individuals across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Latin America through offices in New York, London, Dublin, Milan, Mexico City, and Tel Aviv. The company emphasizes smart beta indexing and income-generating strategies, with the UCITS ETF listed on exchanges including the London Stock Exchange for distribution in eligible markets such as the UK, Germany, Italy, and others.
In recent developments, WisdomTree completed its acquisition of Ceres Partners, LLC, in October 2025 for $275 million upfront plus a potential $225 million earnout, marking the firm's entry into private asset markets focused on U.S. farmland investments and diversifying beyond public ETPs into real assets with inflation-protected income potential. This accretive transaction, announced in July 2025, accelerates WisdomTree's strategic growth in high-demand areas like private markets, managed models, and tokenization, while supporting goals to scale farmland assets to $10 billion over the next decade. No specific changes, launches, or reorganizations were reported for the WDMTF ETF itself in the last 1-2 years, though WisdomTree continues expanding its fixed income offerings amid record assets under management.
