Investment for the World Gold Council </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">&#147;In the investment sector of the World Gold Council we have two primary areas of focus. First
is using research-based advocacy to show the merits of allocations to gold to investors over long periods of time. Second is providing efficient market access through product development and a great example of that is SPDR Gold shares &#150; the
world&#146;s largest gold ETF. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">When the World Gold Council launched the SPDR gold shares in November 2004, we were seeking to overcome
barriers to allocating to gold. It was an immediate success. By making gold accessible through an instrument listed on a stock exchange, it was made available to a new audience of gold investors. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">What we&#146;ve found since then is that the investor base of SPDR gold shares and gold ETFs, frankly around the world, has expanded from the
professional investment community down to the retail investors. The great uptake from individual investors who may have otherwise not had access to the gold market. We refer to GLD as a democratizing tool, and what we mean by that is the investor
who owns one share of GLD pays the same fees to enter that position and total expense ratio as the largest investor in the world. So in some sense, it&#146;s helped level the playing field. Here at the conference, we&#146;ve had a lot of investor
interest in learning more about gold ETFs, and we look forward to continuing dialogue with them and helping educate them on the merits of gold investment in their portfolios.&#148; </FONT></P>
