What is Gold ETF?
Gold ETFs offer investors a simple, safe way to invest in gold. This means you can benefit from fluctuations in the price of gold without actually purchasing it. They attempt to provide returns that match the price of gold in the country, although there may be slight variations (tracking error).
Gold demand in the first half of this year (H1 2025) was the highest since H1 2020. The steadily rising price of gold is further attracting investors. Gold typically maintains its value during periods of inflation. It is globally accepted, scarce, and easily traded. This is why gold is considered a reliable long-term investment asset.
