WisdomTree celebrate the launch of the WisdomTree Recycling Decarbonisation UCITS ETF (WRCY)
The London Stock Exchange today welcomes WisdomTree Recycling Decarbonisation UCITS ETF (WRCY), the world’s first recycling decarbonisation UCITS ETF which provides exposure to global companies involved in waste-to-energy and recycling technologies as part of the global decarbonisation megatrend. WisdomTree, the exchange-traded fund (“ETF”) and exchange-traded product (“ETP”) sponsor, has leveraged insights from TortoiseEcofin, an energy infrastructure and sustainability expert, to develop WRCY. The ETF is classified as an Article 9 fund under the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR).
“WRCY is the world’s first ETF focused solely on recycling and decarbonisation, representing a big step forward for the industry as thematic ETFs continue to attract the interest of European investors looking for long-term growth opportunities. Our approach to launching thematic ETFs is focused on leveraging the in-depth market intelligence that only specialist sector experts, like TortoiseEcofin, can provide. Investors want purity of exposure when investing in themes underpinning structural megatrends, and that’s what we deliver in our suite of thematic ETFs.”

Head of Europe, WisdomTree
