About XFRM
WisdomTree Broad Commodities Ex-Agriculture and Livestock is an Exchange Traded Commodity (ETC) that provides investors with exposure to a diversified basket of commodities excluding agriculture and livestock sectors. It tracks the Bloomberg Commodity ex-Agriculture and Livestock Subindex 4W Total Return, which reflects the performance of futures contracts on commodities such as gold, Brent crude oil, natural gas, copper, WTI crude oil, silver, aluminium, gas oil, heating oil, nickel, zinc, RBOB gasoline, and lead. The ETC employs a synthetic replication method using fully collateralised swaps, backed by high-quality government bonds held in segregated accounts, to deliver total return performance incorporating roll yield from futures contract rolling. Launched in 2012 and domiciled in Jersey, this USD-denominated, accumulating ETC serves as a tool for gaining broad commodity market exposure, particularly to energy, metals, and precious metals, without direct physical ownership. It plays a key role in portfolio diversification strategies focused on commodity price movements and inflation hedging within the broader financial markets.
