About SPDR FTSE International Government Inflation-Protected Bond ETF (WIP)

SPDR FTSE International Government Inflation-Protected Bond ETF, also known as WIP, is an exchange-traded fund that seeks to provide investment results that, before fees and expenses, correspond generally to the price and yield performance of the FTSE Goldman Sachs International Inflation-Linked Government Bond Index. The fund primarily invests in inflation-protected government bonds issued by foreign governments. It aims to mitigate the impact of inflation on the investor's portfolio by investing in securities with built-in inflation protection. Inflation-protected bonds typically adjust their principal value based on changes in the inflation rate, providing investors with a reliable source of income.

WIP is designed to provide exposure to international inflation-protected government bonds, allowing investors to diversify their fixed income portfolio beyond domestic securities. The fund offers investors the opportunity to gain exposure to inflation-protected bonds issued by governments across the globe, including countries such as the United Kingdom, Canada, France, Germany, and Australia. By investing in a diversified portfolio of inflation-protected bonds, WIP aims to reduce the risk associated with investing in a single country or currency. This can help investors preserve the value of their investments in the face of inflationary pressures.
