5 benefits of investing in gold ETF

  1. You can buy gold in small quantities also: Through ETF, gold is bought in units, where one unit is of one gram. This makes it easier to buy gold in small quantities or through SIP (Systematic Investment Plan). Whereas physical gold is usually sold at the price of tola (10 grams). Many times it is not possible to buy gold in small quantities when buying from a jeweler.
  2. Get pure gold: The price of Gold ETF is transparent and uniform. It follows the London Bullion Market Association, the global authority on precious metals. Different sellers/jewelers can offer physical gold at different prices. Gold purchased through Gold ETFs is guaranteed to have 99.5% purity, which is the highest level of purity. The price of the gold you buy will be based on its purity.
  3. No jewelery making expenses: 1% or less brokerage is charged for buying gold ETF, along with 1% annual charge for managing the portfolio. This is nothing compared to the 8 to 30% making charges that jewelers and banks have to pay, even if you buy coins or bars.
  4. Gold remains safe: Electronic gold is kept in the demat account, in which only annual demat charge has to be paid. Also there is no fear of theft. Apart from the danger of theft in physical gold, one also has to spend on its security.
  5. Ease of Trading: Gold ETFs can be bought and sold instantly without any hassle. Gold ETF can also be used as security for taking loan.

How can one invest in it?

To buy gold ETF, you have to open a demat account through your broker. In this, you can buy units of Gold ETF available on NSE and the equivalent amount will be deducted from the bank account linked to your Demat account. Gold ETFs are deposited into your account two days after the order is placed in your demat account. Gold ETF is sold through trading account only.

Limited investment in gold is beneficial

According to experts, even if you like to invest in gold, you should still make limited investments in it. Only 10 to 15% of the total portfolio should be invested in gold. Investing in gold can provide stability to your portfolio during a crisis, but in the long run it can reduce your portfolio returns.
