Company's Online Profile
FUND DESCRIPTION: SPDR Gold Shares, formerly the streetTRACKS Gold Shares, is an investment trust, formed on November 12, 2004 under New York law pursuant to a trust indenture, or the Trust Indenture. The Trust Indenture was amended on November 26, 2007 to reflect the transfer of the listing of the Shares to NYSE Arca. The Trust Indenture was again amended on May 20, 2008 to reflect the change in the name of the Trust to SPDR˛ Gold Trust. The Trust holds gold bars and is expected from time to time to issue Baskets in exchange for deposits of gold and to distribute gold in connection with redemptions of Baskets. The investment objective of the Trust is for the Shares to reflect the performance of the price of gold bullion, less the Trust’s expenses. The Sponsor believes that, for many investors, the Shares represent a cost-effective investment in gold. The Shares represent units of fractional undivided beneficial interest in and ownership of the Trust and trade under the ticker symbol GLD on the NYSE Arca. The Trust’s Sponsor is World Gold Trust Services, LLC, or WGTS, which is wholly-owned by the World Gold Council, or WGC, a not-for-profit association registered under Swiss law. The Sponsor is a Delaware limited liability company and was formed on July 17, 2002.
