## Summary

WisdomTree Japan Equity UCITS ETF Hedged USD is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) from WisdomTree, launched in 2015. It tracks the WisdomTree Japan Hedged Equity UCITS Index - Benchmark TR Net. You buy and sell it through a share-dealing account or platform during stock-market hours, like a share. Its ongoing charge is 0.48% a year — about £48 a year on every £10,000 invested, taken from the fund's value rather than billed to you. Income from its investments is paid out to holders as cash, usually a few times a year. It is currency-hedged to US dollars, not to the pound: it aims to remove most of the effect of exchange-rate moves against US dollars, so a holder who counts in pounds still has currency risk.

Latest close: **$55.54** (13/11/2026).
