Wilshire Phoenix Introduces the wShares Fund Family, Setting the Stage for Groundbreaking Product Lineup


NEW YORK, NY – October 21, 2020 (Business Wire) – With the arrival of the newly launched, and highly anticipated, wShares by Wilshire Phoenix, there is a new player set to deliver a suite of differentiated exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and other investment products to the market.

The initial wShares-branded product is anticipated to launch before the end of 2020. This investment product will seek to bring an innovative and disruptive solution to all investors and will be focused on a select sector of the commodities industry. Wilshire Phoenix intends to expand the wShares product offering with several additional products in 2021, most of which will be structured as ETFs. Certain products will incorporate proprietary methodologies developed by Wilshire Phoenix, offering exposure to other asset classes, including equities.

“Despite the volume of new product introduction we’ve seen, there are some opportunities to improve the investor experience with volatility mitigation, lower cost or better product structure,” stated Will Cai, partner at Wilshire Phoenix. “We created wShares with the idea that we could advance certain established categories while opening new doors for investors in other areas.”

Since Wilshire Phoenix’s inception in 2018, the firm has dedicated itself to creating and enhancing distinct strategies, working with top-tier firms and institutions. Through the wShares funds, investors will soon be able to access these innovative products designed with simplicity, risk-mitigation and efficiency at the forefront.

“Launching wShares is a testament to all the hard work that our team has devoted over the past few years,” said William Herrmann, managing partner of Wilshire Phoenix. “We’re now one step closer to bringing our products to market. We thrive on pushing boundaries and will continue to do so. Investors deserve better access to differentiated strategies.”
