Price return from month-end closes, distributions reinvested at month end. Excludes trading costs, bid-ask spreads and taxes. Past performance says nothing about future returns and is not part of the composite score — see the methodology for what the score does measure.

Composite score

68 / 100
Cost 50

Based on a 0.50% expense ratio.

Liquidity 100

Based on $29.96B in net assets.

Concentration N/A

Not scored — a bullion trust holds one allocated-metal position, so there is no basket to be concentrated in.

Tax efficiency 66

Silver base · Grantor-trust wrapper · 0.00% TTM yield.

The composite is a weighted average of the four core sub-scores above (cost, tax efficiency, liquidity, concentration). Missing sub-scores fall back to the per-category median when the category has at least 50% data coverage, so funds without (e.g.) parsed N-PORT holdings aren't accidentally boosted by renormalization. Tracking quality is shown where computable but isn't currently part of the composite weighting. See methodology for formulas, the tracking-quality partial-coverage rationale, and the dimensions we deliberately don't score (methodology v0.5.2).

Top holdings

This fund is a grantor trust that holds allocated physical silver bullion — not a portfolio of securities — so a holdings table doesn't apply.
