About abrdn Gold ETF Trust
Commodity Contracts Brokers & Dealers, SIC 6221
abrdn Gold ETF Trust is an exchange-traded fund designed to track the performance of gold bullion prices, less trust expenses. The trust issues shares representing fractional undivided beneficial interests in gold bullion, which constitutes the fund's sole asset. It provides both institutional and retail investors with an accessible and cost-effective mechanism to gain exposure to physical gold through standard brokerage accounts without arranging direct metal assay, transport, storage, or insurance. The trust operates without active investment management, directors, or employees, and its shares trade on the NYSE Arca.
The trust conducts its administrative operations through its sponsor, abrdn ETFs Sponsor LLC, located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Its sole holdings consist of physical gold bullion stored under custody arrangements and unallocated gold balances maintained during creation and redemption transactions. All transactions in the trust's shares occur through authorized participants in predetermined share baskets.
