A. RISK FACTORS
Standard Risk Factors:
Investment in Mutual Fund units involves investment risks such as
trading volumes, settlement risk, liquidity risk, default risk including
the possible loss of principal.
As the price / value / interest rate of the securities in which the
Scheme invests fluctuates, the value of your investment in the
Scheme may go up or down depending on various factors and forces
affecting the capital market.
Past performance of the Sponsor/AMC/Mutual Fund does not
guarantee future performance of the Scheme.
The name of the Scheme does not in any manner indicate either
the quality of the Scheme or its future prospects and returns.
The Sponsor is not responsible or liable for any loss resulting from
the operation of the Scheme beyond the initial contribution of
`100,000 made by it towards setting up the Fund.
The present Scheme is not a guaranteed or assured return Scheme.
Scheme Specific Risk Factors
The Scheme is subject to the principal risks described below. Some or
all of these risks may adversely affect Schemes NAV, yield, return and/
or its ability to meet its objectives.
Risk factors associated with investing in Gold:
Market Risk:The value of the Units relates directly to the value of the
gold held by the Scheme and fluctuations in the price of gold could
adversely affect investment value of the Units. The factors that may effect
the price of gold, inter-alia, include economic and political developments,
changes in interest rates and perceived trends in bullion prices, exchangerates, inflation trends, market movements, etc.
Currency Risk: The formula for determining NAV of the Units is based
on the imported (landed) value of gold. The landed value of gold is
computed by multiplying international market price by US dollar value.
The value of gold or NAV, therefore will depend upon the conversion
value of US dollar into Indian rupee and attracts all the risks attached to
such conversion.
Counter Party Risk:The Scheme will buy or sell gold from the open
market, which may lead to counter party risks for the Scheme for trading
and settlement.
Asset Class Risk:The returns from physical Gold in which the Scheme
invests may underperform returns from the securities or other assetclasses.
Physical gold: There is a risk that part or all of the Schemes gold could
be lost, damaged or stolen. Access to the Schemes gold could also be
restricted by natural events or human actions. Any of these actions may
have adverse impact on the operations of the Scheme and consequently
on investment in Units.
Liquidity Risk:The Scheme has to sell gold only to bullion bankers/
traders who are authorized to buy gold. Though, there are adequate
numbers of players (commercial or bullion bankers) to whom the Scheme
can sell gold, the Scheme may have to resort to distress sale of gold if
there is no or low demand for gold to meet its cash needs of redemption
or expenses.
I. INTRODUCTION
Regulatory Risk: Any changes in trading regulations by the stock
exchange(s) or SEBI /RBI may affect the ability of Authorised Participant
to arbitrage resulting into wider premium/ discount to NAV. Any changes
in the regulations relating to import and export of gold or gold jewellery
(including customs duty, sales tax and any such other statutory levies)
may affect the ability of the Scheme to buy/ sell gold against the purchase
and redemption requests received.
Price Risk : The performance of the Scheme may be affected by a
general price decline in the Gold prices. The Scheme invests in the
physical Gold regardless of their investment merit. The AMC does not
attempt to take defensive positions in declining markets.
Indirect taxation:For the valuation of gold by the Scheme, indirect taxes
like customs duty, VAT, etc. would also be considered. Hence, any change
in the rates of indirect taxation would affect the valuation of the Scheme.
Operational Risks:Gold Exchange Traded Funds (GETFs) are relatively
new products and their value could decrease if unanticipated operational
or trading problems arise. Motilal Oswal Shares Gold ETF an open ended
Exchange Traded Fund, is therefore subject to operational risks.
In addition, investors should be aware that there is no assurance that
gold will maintain its long-term value in terms of purchasing power. In
the event that the price of gold declines, the value of investment in Units
is expected to decline proportionately.
Redemption Risk:Though this is an open-ended scheme, the Scheme
would ordinarily repurchase Units in Creation Unit Size. Thus Unit holding
less than Creation Unit Size can only be sold through the secondary
market on the Exchange. Further, the price received upon the redemption
of Units of the Scheme may be less than the value of the gold represented
by them.
Motilal Oswal MOSt Shares Gold ETF shall be investing substantial
portion of its assets in physical gold and tracking its performance as
close as possible to the price of gold.
Market Risk
The Schemes NAV will react to the interest rate movements. The
Investor may lose money over short or long period due to fluctuation
in Schemes NAV in response to factors such as economic and
political developments, changes in interest rates, inflation and other
monetary factors.
Market Trading Risks
1. Absence of Prior Active Market: Although the units of the
Scheme are listed on NSE/BSE, there can be no assurance
that an active secondary market will develop or be maintained.
2. Lack of Market Liquidity: Trading in the units of the Scheme on
NSE/BSE may be halted because of market conditions or for
reasons that in view of NSE/BSE or SEBI, trading in the units
of the Scheme is not advisable. In addition, trading of the units
of the Scheme is subject to trading halts caused by extraordinary
market volatility and pursuant to circuit filter rules of NSE/BSE
and SEBI. There can be no assurance that the requirements of
NSE/BSE necessary to maintain the listing of the units of the
Scheme will continue to be met or will remain unchanged.

Scheme Information Document 7
3. Units of the Scheme may trade at Prices Other than NAV: The
units of the Scheme may trade above or below their NAV. The
NAV of the Scheme will fluctuate with changes in the market
value of Schemes holdings. The trading prices of the units of
the Scheme will fluctuate in accordance with changes in their
NAV as well as market supply and demand for the units of the
Scheme. However, given that units of the Scheme can be
created and redeemed in Minimum Unit size directly with the
Fund, it is expected that large discounts or premiums to the
NAV of units of the Scheme will not sustain due to arbitrage
opportunity available.
4. Regulatory Risk: Any changes in trading regulations by NSE/
BSE or SEBI may affect the ability of market maker to arbitrage
resulting into wider premium/discount to NAV.
5. Right to Limit Redemptions: The Trustee, in the general interest
of the unit holders of the Scheme offered under this SID and
keeping in view of the unforeseen circumstances/unusual
market conditions, may limit the total number of Units which
can be redeemed on any Business Day.
Redemption Risk
Investors may note that even though this is an open-ended Scheme,
the Scheme would ordinarily repurchase units in minimum size,
presently 10 units of MOSt Gold Shares. Thus unit holdings less
than the minimum size can only be sold through the secondary
market on NSE/BSE.
Asset Class Risk
The returns from the types of securities in which the Scheme invests
may under perform from the various general securities markets or
different asset classes. Different types of securities tend to go
through cycles of out-performance and under-performance in
comparison with the general securities markets. Interest Rate Risk
Changes in interest rates will affect the Schemes Net Asset Value.
The prices of securities usually increase as interest rates decline
and usually decrease as interest rates r ise. The extent of fall or rise
in the prices is guided by duration, which is a function of the existing
coupon, days to maturity and increase or decrease in the level of
interest rate. The new level of interest rate is determined by the rate
at which the government raises new money and/or the price levels
at which the market is already dealing in existing securities. Prices
of long-term securities generally fluctuate more in response to
interest rate changes than short-term securities. The price risk is
low in the case of the floating rate or inflation-linked bonds. The
price risk does not exist if the investment is made under a repoagreement. Debt markets, especially in developing markets like
India, can be volatile leading to the possibility of price movements
up or down in fixed income securities and thereby to possible
movements in the NAV.
Credit Risk
Credit Risk means that the issuer of a security may default on interest
payments or even paying back the principal amount on maturity.
(i.e. the issuer may be unable to make timely principal and interest
payments on the security). Even where no default occurs, the prices
of security may go down because the credit rating of an issuer goes
down. It must be, however, noted that where the Scheme has
invested in Government securities, there is no risk to that extent.
Liquidity or Marketability Risk
This refers to the ease at which a security can be sold at or near its
true value. The primary measure of liquidity risk is the spread
between the bid price and the offer price quoted by a dealer. Liquidity
risk is characteristic of the Indian fixed income market. Trading
Volumes, settlement periods and transfer procedures may restrict
the liquidity of the investments made by the Scheme. Differentsegments of the Indian financial markets have different settlement
periods and such period may be extended significantly by unforeseen
circumstances leading to delays in receipt of proceeds from sale of
securities. As liquidity of the investments made by the Scheme could,
at times, be restricted by trading volumes and settlement periods,
the time taken by the Fund for redemption of units may be significant
in the event of an inordinately large number of redemption requests
or restructuring of the Scheme.
B. REQUIREMENT OF MINIMUM INVESTORS IN THE
SCHEME
As MOSt Gold Shares is an exchange traded fund, the provisions
of minimum number of investors and maximum holding by theinvestor is not applicable as per SEBI Circular having reference no.

E. INVESTMENT STRATEGY
The Scheme will invest the funds in physical gold having 99.5%
purity (fineness), with the objective to generate returns that are in
line with the performance of gold, subject to tracking errors. The
Scheme investments will be in accordance with investment objective
of the Scheme and provisions of SEBI regulations.
Risk Control
Risk is an inherent part of the investment function. Effective Risk
management is critical to fund management for achieving financial
soundness. Investment by the Scheme would be made as per the
investment objective of the Scheme and in accordance with SEBI
Regulations. AMC has adequate safeguards to manage risk in the
portfolio construction process. Risk control would involve managing
risk in order to keep in line with the investment objective of the
Scheme. The risk control process would include identifying the risk
and taking proper measures for the same. Further, AMC has
implemented the Front Office System for managing r isk. The system
has incorporated all the investment restrictions as per the SEBI
guidelines and enables identifying and measuring the risk through
various risk management tools like various portfolio analytics, risk
ratios, average duration and analyses the same and acts in a
preventive manner. The AMC will appoint at least two Authorised
Participants who would endeavour to provide liquidity of the units of
the Scheme on the exchange at all times.
Change in Investment Pattern
Subject to SEBI Regulations, the asset allocation pattern indicated
above may change from time to time, keeping in view market
conditions, market opportunities, applicable regulations and political
and economic factors. It must be clearly understood that the
percentage stated above are only indicative and not absolute. These
proportions may vary substantially depending upon the perception
of the AMC, the intention being all the times to seek to protect theinterest of the unit holders. Such changes in the investment pattern
will be for short term only.
The AMC retains the flexibility to invest across all the securities/
instruments in money market. The flexibi lity is being retained to adjust
the portfolio in response to a change in the risk-return equation for
asset classes under investment, with view to maintain risk within
manageable limits.
Investment by AMC in the Scheme
AMC may invest in the Scheme during the New Fund Offer or on an
ongoing basis in accordance with the SEBI Regulations. The AMC
shall not charge investment management fees on investment by
the AMC in the Scheme.
Investment of Subscription Money
The Mutual Fund / AMC shall commence investment out of the NFO
proceeds received in accordance with the investment objectives of
the Scheme only on or after the closure of the NFO period.
Tracking Error
Tracking error is defined as the standard deviation of the difference
between the daily returns of the Underlying benchmark and the NAV
of the Scheme at any particular point of t ime. NAV of the Scheme is
dependant on valuation of gold. Gold has to be valued based on the
formula prescribed by SEBI. NAV so computed may vary from the
price of Gold in the domestic market. Tracking Error may arise due
to the following reasons : -
1. Delay in the purchase or sale of gold due to
- Illiquidity of gold,
- Delay in realisation of sale proceeds,
- Creating a lot size to buy the required amount of gold
2. The Scheme may buy or sell the gold at different points of timeduring the trading session at the then prevailing prices which may
not correspond to its closing prices.
3. The potential for trades to fail, which may result in the Scheme not
having acquired gold at a price necessary to track the benchmark
price.
4. The holding of a cash position and accrued income prior to
distribution of income and payment of accrued expenses.
5. Disinvestments to meet redemptions, recurring expenses, dividend
payouts etc.
6. Execution of large buy / sell orders
7. Transaction cost (including taxes and insurance premium) and
recurring expenses
8. Realisation of Unit holders funds
Tracking error due to movement in prices of physical gold will impact the
performance of MOSt Gold Shares. However, the Scheme will endeavor
to keep tracking error as low as possible by :
- Use of gold related derivative instruments, as and when allowed by
SEBI (MF) Regulations
- Rebalancing of the portfolio.
- Setting off of incremental subscriptions against redemptions.
The AMC would monitor the tracking error of the Scheme on an ongoing
basis and would seek to minimize tracking error to the maximum extent
possible. Under normal market circumstances, such tracking error is not
expected to exceed by 2% p.a. However, in abnormal circumstances,
the tracking error may exceed the above limits. There can be no
assurance or guarantee that the Scheme will achieve any particular level
of tracking error relative to performance of the Underlying Benchmark.
Debt Markets in India
Debt market as the name suggests is a market where debt instruments
or bonds are traded. The most distinguishing feature of these instruments
is that the return is fixed i.e. they are as close to being as risk free as
possible, if not totally risk free. The fixed return on the bond is known as
the interest rate or the coupon rate. The Indian Debt Markets are today
one of the largest in Asia and can be divided into two categories, firstly
the government securities market or the G-Sec markets consisting of
Central Government and State Government Securities (therefore loans
being taken by the Central and State Governments), Treasury Bills, Dated
Government Securities, Coupon Bearing Bonds, Floating Rate Bonds,
Zero Coupon Bonds, State Government Debt, State Government Loans,
Coupon Bearing Bonds etc. and secondly, Non-Government Securities
which mainly consists of FI (Financial Institutions) bonds, PSU (Public
Sector Units) bonds, corporate bonds/debentures and Pass Through
Certificates (PTCs). These can be in the nature of fixed interest bearing,
floaters or deep discount bonds. The government securities segment is
-
8/9/2019 m Gold Etf Details Ok
15/36
Scheme Information Document 15
the most dominant category in the debt market. Risks associated with debt
instruments are credit risk, liquidity risk and price risk/interest rate risk.
The money market segment also deals in fixed and floating rate
instruments. However, the difference between money and bond markets
is that the instruments in the bond markets have a larger time to maturity
(one year and above). The money market on the other hand deals with
instruments that have a maturity of less than one year. The Corporatebond market, though relatively less liquid, is also fast developing with an
increased participation from the banks, financial institutions, mutual funds,
insurance companies and cash rich corporates. Also there are a large
number of instruments available like, Certificates of Deposits, Commercial
Papers and medium to long dated fixed income instruments, PTCs and
derivatives. The yield curve tends to be positive sloping i.e. yield of shorter
dated securities being lower than that of longer dated ones.
The government finances its fiscal deficit through borrowing. It borrows
by issuing G-Secs that are sovereign securities and are issued by the
Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on behalf of Government of India, in lieu of
the Central Governments market borrowing programme.
The money markets in India essentially consist of call money market
(i.e. market for overnight and term money between banks and institutions),
repo transactions (temporary sale with an agreement to buy back the
securities at a future date at specified price), commercial papers (CPs,
short term unsecured promissory note, generally issued by corporates),
certificate of deposits (CDs, issued by banks) and Treasury Bills (issued
by RBI). Debt market is a predominantly institutional market, the key
money market players being banks, financial institutions, insurance
companies, mutual funds, primary dealers and corporates.
The various instruments currently available for investments are:
Instruments Current Yields Liquidity
Central/State Government securit ies 8.75% - 8.95% Very high
PSU Bonds/Corporate debentures 9.55% - 9.70% Medium - High
Commercial Papers 9.20% - 9.70% Low - Medium
Certificate of deposits 9.25% - 9.35% Medium - High
Call/Notice Money 8.55% - 8.65% Very high
Repo (RBI)/CBLO 8.40% - 8.50% Very high
The actual yields will, however, vary in line with general levels of interest
rates and debt/money market conditions prevailing from time to time.
