Products and Services

• Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs)

  These are investment funds traded on stock exchanges, much like stocks. The company invests in ETFs that are specifically focused on gold bullion, allowing investors to gain exposure to the price movements of gold without having to own the physical metal directly.

• Exchange-Traded Notes (ETNs)

  ETNs are a type of unsecured debt security that tracks an underlying index of securities and trade on a major exchange like ETFs. The company's involvement in gold-related ETNs provides investors with a debt instrument that pays a return based on the performance of gold, without owning the gold outright.

• Exchange-Traded Futures Contracts

  These contracts are standardized agreements to buy or sell a specific quantity of gold at a predetermined price at a specified time in the future. By investing in futures contracts, the fund takes positions on the future price of gold, aiming to profit from gold’s price volatility.

• Over-The-Counter Forward Contracts

  These are non-standardized contracts between two parties to buy or sell gold at a specified future date at a price agreed upon today. The fund engages in these contracts to hedge against gold price movements, securing a certain price level for future transactions.

• Fixed Income Securities

  This includes bonds and other types of debt instruments that pay fixed interest rates to investors. The company also invests in mutual funds and ETFs that primarily focus on fixed income securities. By diversifying into fixed income, the fund adds a layer of stability and predictable returns, appealing to a broader range of investors interested in the gold market.
