Global X Japan Secures Approval for Gold ETFs

Global X Japan, a subsidiary of the Daikyo Securities Group located in Chiyoda, Tokyo, has announced a significant milestone in its journey to enhance investment opportunities in Japan. As of today, the Tokyo Stock Exchange has granted approval for two new Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs): the Global X Gold ETF (425A) and the Global X Gold ETF (JPY Hedged) (424A). Both ETFs are scheduled to be listed on the stock exchange on September 26, 2025.

Overview of the ETFs

Global X Gold ETF (425A)

The Global X Gold ETF aims to track the Mirae Asset Gold Bullion ETF Index on a yen-adjusted basis. This ETF will invest in the Global X Gold Bullion ETF, which is a registered investment trust based in Australia that is backed by physical gold bullion. The primary objective is to provide investors with exposure to the performance of gold as a fundamental asset, while also offering the liquidity and ease of trading electronic securities.

Global X Gold ETF (JPY Hedged) (424A)

The Global X Gold ETF (JPY Hedged) similarly seeks to track the Mirae Asset Gold Bullion ETF Hedged Index. This variant offers an additional layer of protection against currency fluctuations, making it an attractive option for investors who wish to mitigate the effects of currency risk while investing in gold. Like its counterpart, it also invests in the Global X Gold Bullion ETF.

Key Features of the Funds

Both ETFs are structured to distribute profits twice a year, allowing investors to benefit from periodic earnings. The funds are part of a broader strategy by Global X Japan, which prides itself on offering an innovative product lineup that includes thematic, income-oriented, core, and commodity-based ETFs. Since its establishment in September 2019, Global X Japan has launched 55 ETFs tailored to respond to diverse investment needs of Japanese investors.

Investment Risks and Considerations

Investors should be aware that, like any investment vehicle, these ETFs carry risks. The value of the fund's shares can fluctuate due to various factors including market conditions, currency exchange rates, credit risk, and country-specific risks. Investors should be prepared for the possibility of receiving less than their initial investment, as there is no guarantee of principal. It is important for potential investors to understand these risks fully before participating.
