WisdomTree Multi Asset Issuer PLC
(the "Issuer")
Transition to ICSD Settlement Model
Dear Shareholder
Background
As you may be aware, the Issuer currently settles trades in all
securities issued by the Issuer (the Securities) using the central
securities depositaries (CSD) settlement model. The securities of the
Issuer (the) are issued on multiple local CSDs and, in the UK,
settlement is through Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited (the CREST system).
The Issuer will lose the ability to use the CREST system as an issuing
CSD from 29 March 2021, when the extended period of equivalency
currently agreed to by the UK and European Union will end.
In order to continue to issue Securities, it is proposed to transfer the
settlement of trading in the Securities to the International Central
Securities Depositary structure (the ICSD Settlement Model) (the
Transition) on or around 11 December 2020 (the Transition Date). In
doing so, this will bring the Issuer in line with the broader European
ETP market, which is increasingly migrating to the ICSD Settlement
Model. The advantages of the ICSD Settlement Model are set out further
below under the heading What are the operational advantages of the
Transition? and within the FAQ guidance document on the WisdomTree
website at:
https://www.wisdomtree.eu/en-gb/-/media/eu-media-files/other-documents/faq/wisdomtree_wtma_q&a.pdf.
The Transition will apply to all of the Securities, which are listed in
Appendix I.
1. Key Implications of the Changes
2. The Transition will allow the Securities to continue to trade on European
exchanges after 29 March 2021.
3. You will continue to hold the same Securities following the Transition,
and your rights will not be affected.
4. The price and the Irish ISINs of the Securities will remain the same
following the implementation of the Transition.
5. Investors who currently hold their Securities through a nominee or broker
account will not be impacted by the Transition and will continue to hold
a beneficial entitlement to the Securities in the same way that they hold
their entitlement under the current CSD settlement model.
6. As part of the Transition, where DE ISINs for German investors have been
issued, these will merge into the Irish ISINs on the Transition Date.
Further information can be found in the FAQ guidance document on the
WisdomTree website at
https://www.wisdomtree.eu/en-gb/-/media/eu-media-files/other-documents/faq/wisdomtree_wtma_q&a.pdf.
7. You will continue to hold, or have a beneficial entitlement to, the same
Securities following the Transition; there is no exchange of Securities
or sale of Securities as part of the Transition. As a result the
Transition are not expected to be chargeable events for tax purposes,
however investors are advised to liaise with their tax advisors in
relation to the tax implications in individual circumstances.
2. Proposed Transition to the ICSD Settlement Model
What are the operational advantages of the Transition?
The key advantage of the Transition is that it will ensure that trading
in the Securities can continue across multiple European exchanges when
the extended period of equivalency currently agreed to by the UK and
European Union ends on 29 March 2021. Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V.
(Euroclear) and Clearstream Banking S.A., Luxembourg (Clearstream and,
together with Euroclear, the ICSDs) provide centralised settlement
mechanism for Securities traded across multiple stock exchanges in
Europe. The ICSD Settlement Model also offers the following benefits:
1. improved secondary market tradability for investors by creating a more
efficient settlement infrastructure;
2. improved settlement process efficiency through longer operating hours of
the ICSDs, increasing the time in which trades can match and settle,
thereby minimising operational complexity;
3. reduction in inventory requirements and lower capital charges and
overheads for market makers and broker dealers;
4. enhanced liquidity for investors in the Securities with less
fragmentation across multiple settlement systems;
5. the ability to pool inventory, reducing failed settlement and settlement
delays;
6. streamlined dividend record date methodologies across Europe; and
7. improved foreign exchange functionality on dividend payments.
What is the difference between the ICSD Settlement Model and the Current
Settlement Model from a legal perspective?
The main difference between the Current Settlement Model and the ICSD
Settlement Model relates to the securityholders of record registered on
the Issuer's register of securityholders (the Register of Members).
Under the Current Settlement Model, only investors with accounts in the
CREST system operated by Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited and certain CSDs
(e.g., Clearstream Banking AG) or their nominees are registered on the
Register of Members.
Under the ICSD Settlement Model, the aggregate holdings of all investors
will be evidenced by a global share certificate and the sole registered
holder of all Securities will be Citivic Nominees Limited (the Common
Depositary's Nominee), the nominee of the common depositary, Citibank
Europe plc.
What are the roles and obligations of the Common Depositary's Nominee
and the ICSDs?
On the Transition Date, the Common Depositary's Nominee and the ICSDs
will have contractual obligations to pass the beneficial interest and
all associated rights of the Common Depositary's Nominee (as the
registered securityholder) in all Securities to the underlying investors
in the Securities.
For example, if the Common Depositary's Nominee receives any redemption
proceeds from the Issuer or its authorised agent in respect of a
Security, the Common Depositary's Nominee will arrange for such payments
to be passed on to the ICSD, who will in turn pay these to the
underlying investors.
How do I trade and settle Securities under the ICSD Settlement Model?
Under the ICSD Settlement Model, investors who are not participants in
the ICSD Settlement Model will need to use a broker, nominee, custodian
bank or other intermediary which is a participant in the ICSD Settlement
Model to trade and settle Securities, similar to the way investors under
the Current Settlement Model use a broker or other intermediary which is
a participant in the CSD for the market in which the investor intends to
trade and settle. The chain of beneficial ownership in the ICSD
Settlement Model will therefore be similar to existing nominee
arrangements under the Current Settlement Model.
What are the ownership implications for investors?
For investors who are registered on the Register of Members immediately
before the Transition Date (e.g. a CSD or its nominee), their ownership
of Securities will change from legal ownership of the relevant
Securities to ownership of a beneficial entitlement in those Securities
through the Common Depositary's Nominee.
Existing investors with Securities held in the CREST system will
automatically continue to hold the beneficial entitlement to these
Securities by means of a CREST depositary interest (Euroclear UK and
Ireland Limited).
3. Costs
The costs associated with the implementation of the Transition will be
borne by WisdomTree Multi Asset Management Limited.
