What are Gold ETFs?
At VanEck we empower investors with the choice of investing in either mature or junior gold mining companies. Each type of miners comes with its unique features and properties, providing a comprehensive exposure to the gold mining sector. Mature and larger companies operate well-established projects and have been generating consistent cash flows over time, often distributing profits to investors in the form of dividends. Junior miners instead offer a more speculative approach, being mostly involved in the exploration and discovery phases of new mines. Accordingly they offer a leveraged exposure to gold prices, amplifying its movements in both directions.
- The world's largest gold and silver mining companies.
- Established firms, with stable cash flows.
- Can be core of gold allocation.
