Wisdom Tree (WT) November AUM Rises Sequentially on Net Inflows

VRTS VCTR WT

WisdomTree, Inc. (WT - Free Report) reported the total assets under management (AUM) of $98.15 billion as of Nov 30, 2023, which reflected a 4.5% increase from the prior-month level. The rise was primarily due to the $4.29-billion impact of a favorable market move.

WT, during November, recorded inflows from the U.S. equity, international developed market equity, emerging market equity, cryptocurrency, alternatives, and leveraged and inverse strategies of $85 million, $38 million, $148 million, $10 million, $13 million, and $45 million, respectively.

These inflows were partially offset by outflows from commodity and currency, and fixed income of $124 million and $259 million, respectively.

With this, the year-to-date net inflows of the company have jumped 14.9% to $11.16 billion, reflecting organic growth. Further, WisdomTree has generated year-to-date net inflows in six of its eight major product categories.

The company’s strong organic growth profile, along with a solid AUM balance, is likely to aid its top line in the near term. However, a challenging operating environment is a major near-term headwind, which might hurt its financials to some extent.

Over the past six months, shares of WisdomTree have declined 9.7% against a rise of 1.7% recorded by the industry.
