Amundi expands gold exposure options with new ETC issuance

LONDON - Amundi Physical Metals plc (GLDA) has announced the issuance of 753,000 new ETC Securities, identified as Tranche 695, under its Amundi Physical Gold ETC. The securities, part of the company’s Secured Precious Metal Linked ETC Securities Programme, are designed to offer investors exposure to gold prices without the necessity of taking physical delivery of the metal.

The issuance, dated May 19, 2025, increases the aggregate number of ETC Securities immediately following this tranche to 61,324,859. Each ETC Security is associated with a specific weight in gold, known as the Metal Entitlement, which for this tranche is set at 0.03967312 fine troy ounces.

Amundi has structured these ETC Securities to track the price of gold, giving investors an alternative means to participate in the gold market through the securities market. The securities are secured by gold held by HSBC Bank plc, the custodian, typically on an allocated basis, ensuring segregation of the gold in the London vault of the custodian.

The Total (EPA:TTEF) Expense Ratio (TER) for this issuance is set at 0.12% per annum, and the securities are scheduled to mature on May 23, 2118. The TER is a fee deducted from the Metal Entitlement of each ETC Security to cover operational expenses.

Applications have been made for the ETC Securities to be admitted to Euronext (EPA:ENX) Paris and several other regulated markets, including Euronext Amsterdam, Deutsche Börse, Borsa Italiana, the London Stock Exchange (LON:LSEG), and the International Quotation System of the Mexican Stock Exchange.

Investors should note that the value and price of the ETC Securities can fluctuate based on gold price movements. The securities do not pay periodic interest, but the Early Redemption Amount or Final Redemption Amount may include an interest redemption premium if applicable.

This announcement is based on a press release statement and aims to provide investors with key information regarding the new issuance of ETC Securities by Amundi Physical Metals plc.
