Sprott Physical Gold Trust Net Asset Value Reaches $10 Billion
TORONTO, March 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sprott Inc. (NYSE/TSX: SII) (“Sprott”) on behalf of the Sprott Physical Gold Trust (NYSE Arca/TSX: PHYS) (“PHYS” or “the Trust) today announced that PHYS’s net asset value (“NAV”) has surpassed US$10 billion.
“We would like to thank our unitholders for their trust and support in helping the Sprott Physical Gold Trust reach this significant milestone,” said John Ciampaglia, Chief Executive Officer of Sprott Asset Management. “Since its launch in 2010, the Sprott Physical Gold Trust has provided investors with a secure and convenient way to own physical gold. In today’s uncertain world, the importance of fully-allocated, segregated physical gold has never been more clear,” added Mr. Ciampaglia.
As of March 13, 2025, PHYS held 3.4 million ounces of gold on behalf of its unitholders.
“Gold prices have set new records in 2025, driven largely by global central bank purchases. We expect this trend to accelerate and broaden as investor participation increases,” said Whitney George, Chief Executive Officer of Sprott.
PHYS was created to invest and hold substantially all of its assets in physical gold bullion. Its goal is to provide a secure, convenient and exchange-traded investment alternative for investors who want to hold physical gold without the inconvenience that is typical of a direct investment in physical gold bullion. All of the gold held by PHYS is fully allocated and redeemable by investors, subject to minimum holding requirements.
