Invesco Physical Gold EUR Hedged ETC tracks the issuer-declared underlying: LBMA Gold Price (PM). In plain words: it tracks the market price of gold (the London fixing is the reference), backed by physical metal held in custody. Mind the share class: this is the version hedged to EUR — returns reflect the index plus the effect (and cost) of hedging into that currency. The declared annual cost (TER) is 0.12%, plus 0.15% in transaction costs estimated by the issuer in the KID. Replication is physical replication (it buys the index constituents). The fund has assets of about 1.5 billion euro, was launched on 9 July 2020 and is domiciled in Ireland.
Every month we snapshot the register and the holdings and keep the picture. The history shows how the fund changes, not only what it is today.

We do not publish a tracking difference for this share class — and it is not an oversight.
SGLE is hedged to EUR; the index the issuer places next to it in its documents is the unhedged, foreign-currency version. Subtracting one from the other does not measure replication quality: it measures the exchange rate. In a year when the currency moves 5%, “the TD” would come out near 5 points — a plausible-looking number, with decimals, and wrong.
Other sites publish that number. We would rather show one figure less than one figure wrong: the TD will return here the day we have the EUR-hedged index series, which the issuer does not publish today.
