About QHY
The Fund employs a “passive management” – or indexing– investment approach designed to track the performance of the Index. The Fund generally uses a representative sampling strategyto achieve its investment objective, meaning it generally will invest in a sample of the securities in the Index whose risk, return,and other characteristics resemble the risk, return, and other characteristics of the Index as a whole. WisdomTree, Inc. (“WisdomTree”), the index providerand the parent company of WisdomTree Asset Management, Inc. (“WisdomTree Asset Management” or the “Adviser”),designed the Index to capture the performance of selected issuers in the U.S. non-investment-grade corporate bond (“junk bond”)market with favorable fundamental and income characteristics. The Index employs a multi-step selection process to seek to identify bondswith favorable fundamentals and then tilts to those bonds with favorable risk-adjusted income characteristics. The Index is comprised of U.S. dollar-denominated corporate bondsof public issuers domiciled in the United States. To be eligible for inclusion in the Index, bonds must meet the following key criteria:(i) pay fixed-rate coupons; (ii) have at least $500 million in par amount outstanding; (iii) have a remaining maturity of at least oneyear; and (iv) have a non-investment grade rating by Standard & Poor’s or Moody’s (i.e., below BBB- or Baa3, respectively).For the purposes of the Index, bonds issued under Regulation S are excluded from eligibility. In addition, a bond cannot be in defaultor otherwise be in distress (e.g., the bond must be rated above C). Once the Index universe is defined, each bond is assigned a factorscore based on fundamental metrics that distinguish cash flow characteristics (i.e., free cash flow) and momentum metrics basedon the relative equity market performance of the bond’s issuer. The Index selects bonds principally based on their fundamentalmetrics. However, a bond issued by a company with favorable fundamental metrics, but exhibiting significant negative momentum metricswould be excluded from the Index, while a bond with weaker fundamental metrics but showcasing positive momentum metrics would be includedin the Index. Bonds are assigned to one of five sectors (i.e., industrial, financial, utility, consumer, or energy) and then assessedfor liquidity against public bonds within their sector. Bonds deemed to be among the 5% least liquid are excluded from consideration. Each remaining bond is then assigned an income tilt score. A bond’stilt score reflects, among other factors, its probability of default and recovery relative to the other bonds in its sector and the yieldspread between the bond and U.S. Treasuries. Income tilt scores are then used to determine a bond’s weight in the Index relativeto its market value, with greater weight allocated to those bonds receiving higher income tilt scores. The Fund’s exposure to anysingle bond issuer and any single bond is capped at the time of rebalance at 2% and 0.50%, respectively, with any excess exposure allocatedacross the remaining bonds on a pro rata basis. The Index is rebalanced semi-annually. During the intra-rebalance period, the Index mayinclude constituents that no longer meet the Index’s eligibility criteria as described above. Under certain circumstances, suchas in response to a change in a bond’s credit rating that causes it to no longer meet the Index eligibility criteria, the indexprovider may remove constituents from the Index intra-rebalance but on a delayed-basis (e.g., at the end of the month in whichthe credit rating changed). The Fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in investments not includedin the Index, including repurchase agreements and/or derivatives. Derivative investments may include interest rate futures, swaps, andforward contracts. To the extent the Index is concentrated in the securities of companiesassigned to a particular industry or group of industries, the Fund will seek to concentrate its investments (i.e., invest morethan 25% of its assets) in such industry or group of industries to approximately the same extent as the Index.
