WQTM offers targeted exposure to rapidly growing quantum computing ecosystem
WisdomTree, Inc. (NYSE:WT), a global financial innovator, today announced the launch of the WisdomTree Quantum Computing Fund (WQTM) on the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE), with an expense ratio of 0.45%. WQTM seeks to track the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the WisdomTree Classiq Quantum Computing Index.
"Quantum computing is crossing the threshold from theory to commercial reality, the way electricity left the laboratory in the late 1800s, semiconductors leapt from military contracts to consumer products in the 1960s, and the internet rewired society in the 1990s," said Chris Gannatti, Global Head of Research at WisdomTree. "We designed WQTM to give investors early access to this next major transformation, one that is anticipated to redefine finance, pharmaceuticals, climate science, and cybersecurity at their very foundations."
Supported by WisdomTree's research and Classiq, a specialist in quantum software, WQTM provides investors with targeted exposure to the quantum computing ecosystem by capturing companies from pure-play innovators in hardware and software to diversified technology leaders. By blending focused exposure to quantum pioneers with broader tech companies, the Fund offers a balance of purity and relevancy.
WQTM: What's Under the Hood?
WQTM provides exposure to the full spectrum of quantum innovation, spanning:
- Quantum chips and qubit technology
- Quantum software and algorithms
- Quantum annealing and simulation
- Quantum-as-a-Service
- Post-quantum cryptography
- Quantum networking and communications
- Advanced computing
- Tools and infrastructure, as well as semiconductors, materials and components to companies involved in the development of Quantum computing technologies.
This comprehensive approach allows WQTM to bridge today's emerging breakthroughs with the long-term adoption of quantum computing, offering investors a differentiated way to access one of the most transformative themes of our time. The Fund is regularly evaluated and updated to stay aligned with this particularly fast-moving sector.

There are risks associated with investing, including potential loss of principal. To the extent the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region. The economic, political, regulatory, and other events and conditions that affect issuers and investments in the United States differ significantly from those associated with other countries and regions. U.S. financial markets have become increasingly globalized becoming more integrated with financial markets around the world and as a result, U.S. financial markets are increasingly vulnerable to the risks that may affect non-U.S. financial markets. The Fund's investments in the U.S. are particularly subject to the risk that they, and the U.S. economy more generally, will be adversely affected by a decrease in imports or exports, changes in trade regulations, inflation, and/or an economic recession in the U.S. The Fund invests primarily in the securities of quantum computing companies. Companies engaged in the development of quantum computing or machine learning technology may be significantly impacted by rapid technological advancements, product obsolescence, intense competition, consumer demand, and government regulation. Such companies are also heavily dependent upon patent and intellectual property rights. Tariffs placed on specialized components and/or raw materials used by such companies may increase costs and delay progress associated with research and developments in quantum computing and machine learning. The Fund invests in the securities included in, or representative of, its Index regardless of their investment merit and the Fund does not attempt to outperform its Index or take defensive positions in declining markets. The composition of the Index is heavily dependent on quantitative and qualitative information and data from one or more third parties, and the Index may not perform as intended. Please read the Fund's prospectus for specific details regarding the Fund's risk profile.
