This ETC (Exchange Traded Commodity) offers investors direct exposure to the spot price of gold, with each unit backed by allocated physical bullion held in secure vaults. Gold is a globally recognised store of value, trusted across economies and cultures for centuries.
The ETC tracks the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) Gold Price, adjusted for a small annual fee. It’s ideal for investors seeking portfolio diversification using a time-tested commodity that offers a lower risk level than equities investment.
This ETC is a single asset product, so doesn’t necessarily offer the same market diversity as a fund with many different assets. The performance is driven purely by gold market dynamics, such as inflation trends, interest rates, and geopolitical risk. Its primary role is capital preservation and risk mitigation, not sectoral growth.
In a physically backed Exchange Traded Commodity (ETC), the issuer buys and stores the commodity, and each unit of the ETC corresponds to a specific amount of that physical asset. Investors benefit from daily liquidity, low costs, and exposure to commodity price movements, while avoiding storage, insurance, and security concerns themselves.
