The investment objective of the iShares Gold Bullion Fund (CAD-Hedged) is to replicate the performance of the price of gold bullion, less its expenses and fees. The Fund is not actively managed.
The iShares Gold Bullion Fund (CAD-Hedged) invests its assets in holdings of unencumbered gold bullion, in 100 or 400 troy ounce international bar sizes, and will not speculate with regard to short-term changes in gold prices. This strategy provides investors with the ability to invest in unencumbered gold bullion in a convenient, tradable and secure manner without the associated inconvenience and high transaction, handling, storage, insurance typical of direct gold bullion investment.
