- Global X Physical Gold (ASX:GOLD) is an exchange-traded commodity (ETC) that provides investors with simple, cost-efficient and secure exposure to physical gold by tracking the movements in the gold spot price denominated in Australian dollars, less the annual management fee of 0.40%. Each unit represents a beneficial interest in approximately 1/100th of one fine troy ounce of physical allocated gold bullion held in vaults by custodian JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., in London, with the gold audited twice yearly by Inspectorate International. The product offers a low-correlation asset for portfolio diversification, backed directly by physical gold without paying dividends or distributions. Launched on March 28, 2003, as the world's first physical gold exchange-traded product, Global X Physical Gold is issued by Global X Management (AUS) Limited, a subsidiary of Mirae Asset Financial Group, and is headquartered at Level 9, 115 Pitt Street, Sydney, NSW 2000, Australia. It primarily serves retail and institutional investors seeking commodity exposure on the Australian Securities Exchange, with operations focused on the Australian market though the underlying gold is stored internationally. The issuer, formerly known as ETFS Metal Securities Australia Limited until a rebrand in September 2022 following acquisition by Mirae Asset, maintains the GOLD ticker continuously since listing. In recent developments, the product has benefited from Global X's expansion of its gold ETF suite, including the launch of the lower-fee Global X Gold Bullion ETF (ASX:GXLD) in May 2024 with a 0.15% management fee for long-term holders, and the currency-hedged Global X Gold Bullion (Currency Hedged) ETF (ASX:GHLD) in March 2025 to mitigate AUD/USD fluctuations. These additions complement GOLD as Australia's largest and most liquid physical gold-backed exchange-traded product, reinforcing the issuer's leadership in commodity ETPs amid sustained gold price strength driven by economic uncertainty and lower real yields. No major acquisitions, funding rounds or operational shifts specific to GOLD have been reported in the last two years, with focus remaining on product innovation within Global X's 43-ETF Australian lineup.
