Gold Portfolio Exposure Formula

Total Gold Exposure = Physical + Funds + Miners + Trading + Futures Notional
Exposure % = Total Gold Exposure ÷ Portfolio Value × 100

Not All Gold Exposure Behaves the Same

Physical bullion is closely linked to gold itself. Mining stocks add company and operating risk. Leveraged instruments add financing and margin effects. Combining them can therefore be useful for a broad exposure view, but it should not be interpreted as identical risk.

Notional Exposure vs Capital

For leveraged instruments, notional value can be much larger than capital committed. This calculator therefore presents exposure rather than pretending that every instrument's cash investment is directly equivalent to its gold sensitivity.

Use notional exposure deliberately when analyzing market sensitivity, not as a substitute for invested capital.
