WisdomTree launches physical silver ETCs covered in euros and pounds

WisdomTree has expanded its range of precious metals with the launch of two physical silver ETCs with currency hedging in euros and pounds sterling, designed for investors operating outside the US dollar.

Nitesh Shah, Head of Commodities and Macroeconomic Research, Europe, WisdomTree, introduced the products, which add to a range of ETPs on commodities that the manager manages with 43.2 billion dollars in assets.

Fees and technical data of the new ETCs

The two products, the WisdomTree Physical Silver - EUR Daily Hedged and the WisdomTree Physical Silver - GBP Daily Hedged, apply a management fee of 0.25% and a currency hedging fee of 0.10%. Both are physically backed by allocated silver and custodied in secure vaults.

Silver, between precious and industrial metal

Silver combines the characteristics of a precious metal and an industrial metal. It maintains a close relationship with gold and can benefit from macroeconomic uncertainty, but also plays a key role in industrial applications such as solar panels, electric vehicles, and advanced electronics.

Silver offers a unique combination of factors that drive demand both in the precious metals sector and in the industrial sector, making it an important component of many portfolios. By adding the new currency hedged ETCs, we allow investors to access this opportunity while managing currency risk, which can be especially relevant in the current macroeconomic context.

As demand for renewable energy technologies grows and their industrial use expands, silver gains weight in structural demand factors, in addition to traditional macroeconomic ones, giving investors exposure to both cyclical and long-term themes.

WisdomTree, with the most complete range of precious metals in Europe

Alexis Marinof, CEO, Europe, WisdomTree, highlighted that the firm has built the most complete range of precious metals and commodities ETCs in Europe. The launch responds to the growing demand for more personalized exposures, in a context where currency volatility can significantly affect the profitability of investors who do not operate in dollars.

WisdomTree has created the most complete range of precious metals and commodities ETCs in Europe. The new ETCs reflect our commitment to offer investors flexible and efficient ways to access key asset classes. Expanding our range with these new solutions provides investors with more options to access precious metals in the way that best suits their portfolio objectives.
