Xetra Gold har inte en klassisk finansiell fondavgift (den är 0 %) utan man tar betalt på annat sätt. Så här skriver de på sin hemsida under FAQ:
Fees amounting to 0.025 percent are charged monthly for safe custody; Clearstream Banking AG, the custodian, deducts these fees along with the securities account fees. Which of these fees (plus VAT) are passed on to investors depends on the contractual relationship between the buyers of Xetra-Gold and the bank maintaining their securities account.
