- iShares Silver Trust (SLV) is a grantor trust that holds physical silver bullion and seeks to reflect the performance of the price of silver, delivered through exchange-traded shares representing fractional undivided beneficial ownership interests in the Trust's silver holdings; the Trust holds allocated London Good Delivery bars of unencumbered silver in vaults maintained by JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A., London branch, as custodian; it does not engage in active management, lending, derivatives trading, or strategies to profit from or hedge against silver price changes, and issues or redeems shares only in large "Baskets" representing 50,000 shares in exchange for silver deposits or withdrawals. Sponsored by iShares Delaware Trust Sponsor LLC, a BlackRock, Inc. indirect subsidiary, with The Bank of New York Mellon serving as trustee, the Trust was formed on April 21, 2006, and began trading on April 28, 2006, with principal executive offices historically associated with San Francisco, California, under Barclays Global Investors (now BlackRock). The Trust operates globally through its silver allocations in London and New York vaults, targeting investors seeking silver price exposure without physical storage, including retail, institutional, and authorized participants in the commodities and exchange-traded product segments. In recent years, the Trust has seen robust inflows exceeding $608 million over the past year amid surging silver demand from industrial applications like solar energy and AI data centers, with assets under management reaching approximately $23.67 billion as of late 2025 and silver holdings surpassing 437 million ounces; it hit new 52-week highs in mid-2025 as silver prices exceeded $35 per ounce due to supply deficits projected at 149 million ounces for 2025, reflecting steady growth in mine production offset by rising demand.
