With the price of gold up by around 30 per cent this year, investments in gold through mutual funds has become a silent trend. It has become simple and easy for investors to get exposure to gold through fund SIPs.

 

There are many gold funds available already, with IDBI Mutual Fund joining in now. IDBI has become the 12th AMC to launch a Gold ETF – an open-ended gold exchange traded scheme.

It will invest in physical gold with the objective of replicating the performance of gold in domestic prices. The ETF will adopt a passive investment strategy and try to minimize the tracking error between the fund and the underlying asset. Besides these investments in physical gold, the scheme may invest up to 5 per cent in debt and money market instruments. The physical gold will have the purity of 99.5 per cent.

 

Charges

The fund's annual charges will be 1.5 per cent and it will include fund management fees and other charges.

 

The transaction charges (fees to distributor/agent) will be Rs.150 for first time investors and Rs.100 for existing investors. However, there will be no transaction charge for investors who choose to invest directly with the fund house.

 

Fund Manager

Mr. Gautam Kaul will manage this fund. He is an MBA with over 10 years experience in debt markets including 6 years in the mutual fund industry. He has worked as a dealer & fixed income fund manager in Religare Mutual Fund, dealer - fixed Income in Sahara Mutual Fund and government securities & corporate bond desk dealer in Mata Securities Pvt.
