WisdomTree U.S. Quality Growth ETF Overview

WisdomTree U.S. Quality Growth ETF (QGRW) is a passively managed U.S. Equity Large Growth exchange-traded fund (ETF). WisdomTree launched the ETF in 2022.

The investment seeks to track the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the WisdomTree U.S. Quality Growth Index. The index is a market-capitalization weighted index that is comprised of 100 U.S. large-capitalization and mid-capitalization companies with the highest composite scores based on two fundamental factors: growth and quality, which are equally weighted. To the extent the index concentrates (i.e., holds 25% or more of its total assets) in the securities of a particular industry or group of industries, the fund will concentrate its investments to approximately the same extent as the index. It is non-diversified.
