PRECIOUS METALS BULLION TRUST is a secure, convenient and low-cost way to invest in physical gold, platinum and silver bullion, on a Canadian dollar-hedged basis.

SECURE:

• All physical gold, silver and platinum bullion bars are stored on a fully allocated, insured and physically segregated basis in Canada, in the treasury vaults of the Bank of Nova Scotia, a Canadian Schedule 1 bank.

CONVENIENT:

• Investors can hold an interest in physical gold, silver and platinum bullion by buying units of the Trust directly on the Toronto Stock Exchange
• Units are traded through investment dealers, like any other exchange-traded security. 
• Investors should contact their investment advisors to buy or sell units of the Trust.
• Units can be redeemed quarterly for physical gold, silver and platinum bullion (subject to minimum redemption amounts).

LOW-COST: 

• The Trust offers investors a lower-cost alternative to buying and storing bullion directly, due to economies of scale in the purchase and secure storage of physically segregated gold, silver and platinum bullion. 

CANADIAN DOLLAR-HEDGED:

• Many investors buy physical gold, silver and platinum bullion to hedge against potential devaluation of the US dollar. 
• As bullion prices are quoted in US dollars, a weakening US dollar could reduce or eliminate the real value of increased bullion price. 
• The Trust gives investors an additional layer of protection against this risk by eliminating US dollar exposure through hedging its bullion holdings to the Canadian dollar.
