In plain English

Amundi Physical Gold ETC is an exchange-traded commodity (ETC) from Amundi, launched in 2019.

It tracks the LBMA Gold Price PM - USD - Benchmark Price Return — the price of gold.

You buy and sell it through a share-dealing account or platform during stock-market hours, like a share.

Its ongoing charge is 0.12% a year — about £12 a year on every £10,000 invested, taken from the fund's value rather than billed to you.

Income from its investments is reinvested inside the fund, so it shows up as a rising price rather than cash paid to you.

Gold & commodities: Gold, silver, oil and other raw materials. They pay no dividends or interest — returns come only from price changes.
