Trading arrangements for the CSOP Gold ETF have been announced by the Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited. The CSOP Gold ETF (03030) has received authorization from the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission as a collective investment scheme. It is expected to commence trading on the Hong Kong Exchange on April 21, 2026, and will be included in the list of securities eligible for recognized short selling.
Information indicates that the product is designed to deliver investment returns that closely track the performance of the LBMA Gold Price AM. It will purchase and hold physical gold bars, which will be stored in a vault located in Hong Kong. HSBC will serve as the custodian, while the Hong Kong International Airport Precious Metals Depository and Brink's will act as sub-custodians.
Wang Zhuofeng, Managing Director and Head of Asia Pacific Sales at CSOP, stated that this ETF supports physical gold redemption. The minimum investment for one board lot is approximately HKD 720. It is hoped that the product will become a long-term gold allocation tool for investors, characterized by its low entry threshold.
