How it Works
ESUPERFUND clients can invest in Metals and Commodities in the following ways.
Option 1: Physical Metals
ESUPERFUND clients are permitted to invest in Physical Metals and Commodities including Gold and Silver directly. For more details click here.
Option 2: Metal and Commodity CFDs
ESUPERFUND clients are permitted to trade Metals and Commodities using CFDs with CMC Markets. CMC Markets CFDs allow your SMSF to invest in a wide range of Metals and Commodities including but not limited to, Agriculture, Energy, Gold, Silver, Oil, Coffee and Sugar. CFDs allow you to bypass standardised futures trade sizes and trade smaller quantities. Importantly there is no risk of the metal actually being delivered. For more details click here.
Option 3: Exchange Traded Commodities (ETCs)
Clients of ESUPERFUND are permitted to invest in International Exchange Traded Commodities (ETCs). ETC's allow your SMSF to invest in Gold, Silver and other Commodities. ETCs track the performance of an underlying physical Commodity or Commodity Index allowing investors to gain direct exposure to the underlying Commodity without the need to trade futures or take physical delivery of the Commodity. Aside from the underlying asset, ETCs are very much like Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) and are traded and settled on the ASX, just like shares, making them both accessible and affordable.
