This business model is particularly tailored towards investors looking for exposure to physical gold without the complexities and securities associated with numismatic collections.

Products and Services
- London Bars and Physical Gold Holdings
The company's primary offering is its holding of London Bars and Physical Gold in various specifications. These holdings serve as the foundational asset for the company's investment products. The gold is stored in secure vaults and is the basis for the creation and redemption of Baskets by Authorized Participants. This service enables investors to have tangible exposure to the gold market, benefiting from the intrinsic and potentially appreciating value of physical gold without having to deal with the physical storage themselves.
- Creation of Baskets
Authorized Participants are provided with the unique service of depositing gold with the company in exchange for Baskets. These Baskets represent a proportional interest in the company's gold holdings, analogous to shares in a company. This process is pivotal to the operation of the trust as it facilitates the entry of new capital and gold into the system, thereby increasing the liquidity and accessibility of gold investments for institutional and retail investors alike. It provides a standardized and regulated mechanism for investors to gain exposure to gold prices.
- Redemption of Baskets
In addition to creating Baskets, Authorized Participants can surrender Baskets to the company for redemption, in which case they receive an equivalent value of physical gold in return. This aspect of the service ensures that investors have the flexibility to convert their investment back into physical gold at their discretion, thereby providing an exit strategy and liquidity. This mechanism is crucial for maintaining the trust's integrity and attractiveness to investors, offering a tangible linkage between the investment product and the underlying gold assets.
