PLEASE CLICK HERE TO PROVIDE YOUR CONTACT INFORMATION
On August 6, 2024, WisdomTree disclosed that it had received a Wells Notice from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") advising the Company that the SEC has made a "preliminary determination" to file an enforcement action "alleging violations of certain provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws" related to three exchange-traded series of WisdomTree Trust that pursued Environmental, Social and Government ("ESG") focused strategies.
The recommendation could involve a civil injunctive action, or any other action allowed by law, and could seek fines and injunctions, WisdomTree said in a regulatory filing. The board of trustees for the WisdomTree Trust approved the liquidation of the ESG funds last December, citing persistent lack of investor demand and limited prospects for future asset growth. The liquidations were completed in February. When they were in operation, the ESG funds had about $119 million in average assets under management.
