Gold Bullion Securities Secured Undated Zero Cpn Notes (USD) (GBS)

Gold Bullion Securities is a UCITS Eligible Exchange Traded Commodity (ETC) designed to offer security holders a simple, cost-efficient and secure way to access Physical Gold by providing a return equivalent to the movements in the Physical Gold spot price less the applicable management fee. Gold Bullion Securities is backed by physical, allocated Physical Gold held by HSBC Bank plc (the custodian). Only metal that conforms with the London Bullion Market Association's (LBMA) rules for Good Delivery can be accepted by the custodian. Each physical bar is segregated, individually identified and allocated. For example, if Physical Gold rises by 1% over a day, then the ETC will rise by 1%, excluding fees. However if Physical Gold falls by 1% over a day, then the ETC will fall by 1%, excluding fees.
