Gold and Commodity ETFs
Gold, metals, and commodity baskets — assets that behave differently from stocks, and therein lies their role.
What to know before choosing
Gold does not pay interest or dividends, so its valuation is purely a matter of confidence in currencies and bonds. It is held in a portfolio not to generate high returns, but because it tends to perform strongly when the rest of the portfolio is weak.
Formally, most 'gold ETFs' are ETCs — debt instruments backed by physical bullion, not funds. For an investor with a brokerage account, the practical difference is whether the product is backed by metal in a vault or only by contracts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I buy these funds through a Polish broker?
Yes — this is a catalog of funds listed on European exchanges, accessible from a typical Polish brokerage account. However, the availability of a specific fund depends on your broker, and it's worth checking before placing an order.
What's the difference between an accumulating and a distributing fund?
Accumulating funds reinvest dividends internally, while distributing funds pay them out to your account. For long-term saving, accumulating funds are usually more tax-efficient because you only pay tax when you sell.
Where can I check a fund's fees and holdings?
In the ETF scanner within the Portevo app — there, numbers (TER, holdings, performance, currency) are pulled live for the selected fund.
