Our read on NTSE
CEmerging-markets stocks with a Treasury chaser. NTSE holds 90% EM equities and layers a 60% laddered US Treasury futures overlay on top, so a dollar of fund buys about $1.50 of market exposure. WisdomTree's Efficient Core playbook, pointed at EM.
The Fund seeks total return through emerging-markets equity securities and U.S. Treasury futures. It is actively managed with a models-based process.
Why people hold it
- The 90/60 build is the whole idea: about 90% of assets in EM stocks, the rest as collateral for laddered Treasury futures (2 to 30 year maturities, 3 to 8 year target duration). Bonds without selling stocks.sec.govregulated-documents.saytechnologies.com
- Charges 0.32% a year, under the typical fund in its emerging-markets peer group, despite being actively managed with a models-based process rather than a plain index tracker.sec.gov
- Broad underneath the overlay: roughly 400 EM stocks spanning every major sector, with rebalancing back toward the 90/60 target when either sleeve drifts by 5% or more. Pays quarterly.sec.gov
Worth knowing
- Leverage works both directions. Roughly 150% total exposure means selloffs land harder than in plain EM beta, and you carry US interest-rate risk alongside emerging-markets equity risk.sec.gov
- Straight EM index exposure costs less: VEXC at 0.07% and BKEM at 0.11% skip the futures overlay entirely. You are paying up for the structure, not the stocks.
- Thinly traded next to the category's household names, and one of the smaller funds in its group, so bid-ask spreads can run wider than the headline expense ratio suggests.

NTSE Risk
This fund targets a multiple of the daily move of its index and resets daily. Hold it longer than one reset and compounding makes the return diverge from that target. In choppy markets it can lose value even when the index ends flat.
- 17.6%
How it’s calculated: standard deviation
The sample standard deviation of monthly total returns, multiplied by the square root of 12.
Uses up to 36 complete months, with at least 12 required. Total returns include reinvested distributions.
- 1.04
How it’s calculated: Sharpe ratio
Subtract each month’s Treasury-bill return from the fund’s monthly total return.
Divide the average of those excess returns by their sample standard deviation, then multiply by the square root of 12.
Uses up to 36 complete months, with at least 12 required. Each month uses the Treasury yield quoted at the end of the previous month.
- −39.7%
How it’s calculated: maximum drawdown
The largest percentage decline from an earlier peak, using total returns with reinvested distributions.
Uses up to five years through the last close, with at least 12 months required.
- 1.20
How it’s calculated: beta
The beta figure is supplied by FMP. The comparison index depends on the fund’s broad asset class.
