Structure

The fund lists one holding, gold, at 100.00%, and asset allocation records 100.00% in the Other category. No stocks, bonds or cash are shown.

Because the exposure is gold alone, the fund carries no sector, country or market-capitalisation weightings. No benchmark is listed.

Category and hedging

Morningstar places the fund in the Commodities and Precious Metals category, whose funds hold direct positions or derivative securities that provide exposure to the price of soft or hard commodities, including precious metals. Funds in the category do not receive a Morningstar rating.

The fund is currency hedged, which means its value is intended to track the gold price with less effect from movements between the US and Australian dollars.

Fee and risk measures

The management fee is 0.35% a year, compared with 0.14% on the VanEck Gold Bullion ETF (ASX:NUGG). The fund reports a standard deviation of 30.31. The 52-week price range runs from $61.00 to $94.77.

The fund pays no distributions, so any change in value comes from movements in the gold price, net of the fee, rather than from income.

Category classification and liquidity

Morningstar places the fund in the Commodities & Precious Metals category, which covers funds investing primarily in direct holdings or derivative securities that provide exposure to changes in the price of soft or hard commodities, including precious metals.

Liquidity indicators add a further view. There are 3,732,500 units on issue, and average daily trading volume is 28,599 units. Over the five sessions from 7 to 13 October 2026, daily volume ranged from 2,200 to 11,200 units, with 2,528 recorded on 13 October while the market was still open. The bid-offer range stood at $64.44 to $67.00, and the day range at $63.98 to $64.59. These figures change through the trading day and reflect market activity rather than the fund's holdings.

Recent announcements

Final Takeaway

GHLD offers hedged gold exposure through a unit trust at a 0.35% fee, with no income. Trading volume is light, and the fund has a short listing history. These facts describe the structure and do not forecast outcomes.
