In plain English
Xtrackers Physical Gold EUR Hedged ETC is an exchange-traded commodity (ETC).
You buy and sell it through a share-dealing account or platform during stock-market hours, like a share.
Its ongoing charge is 0.59% a year — about £59 a year on every £10,000 invested, taken from the fund's value rather than billed to you.
It is currency-hedged to euros, not to the pound: it aims to remove most of the effect of exchange-rate moves against euros, so a holder who counts in pounds still has currency risk.
Gold & commodities: Gold, silver, oil and other raw materials. They pay no dividends or interest — returns come only from price changes.
