How it works

Kotak Gold ETF is a etfs & market-linked product from Kotak Mahindra Mutual Fund, in the market-linked category: no promised return. An ETF that tracks the domestic price of gold, held as a substitute for physical metal.

Because the return type is market-linked, the questions that matter most are: What exactly does this hold, and what would make it fall? Can I leave this money invested if it drops 30%?

  • Adding a diversifier that does not move with equities
  • Holding gold without storage or making charges

What can go wrong

  • Gold can stay flat or fall for very long periods.
  • The rupee and dollar prices can move in opposite directions.
  • Expenses and tracking error reduce the return versus holding metal.

Before you decide anything

  • The expense ratio and tracking difference
  • The spread and traded volume

These are questions to take to the provider, not a checklist that makes a product suitable. Whether something fits your situation is a decision only you — or an adviser you choose — can make.
