WisdomTree (NYSE: WT) reported strong metrics for March 2025, achieving new all-time high month-ending Assets Under Management of $115.787 billion. The company secured nearly $1.1 billion in March net inflows across 5 of 8 product categories, with year-to-date inflows exceeding $3 billion, representing an 11% annualized organic growth rate.

Performance breakdown by division shows: U.S. (+$1.8 billion), Europe (+$1.1 billion), and Digital Assets (+$100 million). The UCITS ETF suite demonstrated remarkable growth with over $1 billion in year-to-date net inflows, achieving a 65% annualized organic growth rate, notably driven by the WisdomTree European Defense fund (WDEF LN) which attracted $770 million since its March launch.

Fixed Income led category performance with $710 million monthly inflows and $2.088 billion year-to-date, while International Developed Market Equity added $660 million in March. Commodity & Currency experienced the largest outflow of $406 million.

WisdomTree (NYSE: WT) announced the rebranding of its PutWrite Strategy Fund (PUTW) to the WisdomTree Equity Premium Income Fund (WTPI). The fund, which maintains its NYSE Arca listing and 0.44% expense ratio, tracks the Volos U.S. Large Cap Target 2.5% PutWrite Index.

WTPI employs a strategy of selling bi-weekly put options on the S&P 500 Index, targeting a 2.5% premium to generate consistent income. The fund is positioned as an attractive option for income-seeking investors in the current market environment, particularly given elevated market valuations and policy-related uncertainties affecting S&P 500 expectations for 2025.

The fund is designed to potentially outperform traditional equity strategies in flat-to-down markets by capitalizing on volatility premium in the options market. However, investors should note that the fund's returns are to option premiums received, while potential losses could extend to the entire strike price of sold options.

WisdomTree (NYSE: WT) has launched two new municipal bond ETFs on the Nasdaq: the WisdomTree Core Laddered Municipal Fund (WTMU) and WisdomTree High Income Laddered Municipal Fund (WTMY), with expense ratios of 0.25% and 0.35% respectively.

WTMU employs a conservative approach, investing in municipal debt securities with an average duration of 4-8 years. It can invest up to 30% in securities subject to federal alternative minimum tax. WTMY takes a more aggressive stance, targeting higher income through a combination of investment grade and high yield municipals, with an average duration of 5-10 years.

Both funds are actively managed and sub-advised by Insight North America , focusing on securities expected to mature or be called within 15 years. The investment strategy aims to exploit market inefficiencies, manage credit risk, and optimize yield through structured approaches.

WisdomTree (NYSE: WT) has expanded its WisdomTree Connect platform with 13 tokenized SEC-registered funds, marking the largest collection of tokenized funds in the market. The platform now extends beyond Ethereum to include Arbitrum, Avalanche, Base, and Optimism blockchains.

The offering spans various categories including the Government Money Market Digital Fund (WTGXX), equity funds like the WisdomTree 500 Digital Fund (SPXUX), multiple Treasury-focused funds, and asset allocation options such as the Siegel Global Equity Digital Fund (EQTYX).
