S&P GSCI broad commodity ETF — more energy-heavy (60%+) than DBC/PDBC. Tracks the most widely-followed commodity benchmark. Good inflation hedge and equity diversifier.
GSG has a total expense ratio (TER) of 0.75%, which means you pay $75 per year for every $10,000 invested.
GSG is an accumulating ETF — dividends are automatically reinvested into the fund rather than paid out, which can be more tax-efficient in many jurisdictions.
GSG is a US-domiciled ETF (not UCITS). Non-US investors should consider the US estate tax implications (40% on US assets above $60,000) and the 30% dividend withholding tax (reduced by treaty in some countries).
GSG uses synthetic replication via swap contracts, which can reduce tracking error but introduces counterparty risk.
Similar ETFs tracking the same or a very similar index include: DBC, PDBC. These may differ in domicile, currency, dividend policy, or expense ratio.
