BlackRock Gold & General Inclusive - Class A - Accumulation (GBP)






Income and accumulation units
With income units, any income is paid as cash. This can be withdrawn, reinvested or simply held on your account. With accumulation units any income is retained within the fund; the number of units remains the same but the price of each unit increases by the amount of income generated within the fund. Generally accumulation units offer a slightly more efficient way to reinvest income, although many investors will choose to hold income units and reinvest the income to buy extra units.

In some cases the ongoing savings are provided by our loyalty bonus. Loyalty bonuses are tax-free in an ISA or SIPP. However, they may be subject to tax in a Fund & Share Account which would, in effect, reduce their value and increase the net ongoing charge.

View fund chartOur view on this fund
This fund mainly invests in large and medium-sized gold mining companies. It's managed by an experienced and well-resourced team. We think it's a reasonable choice for exposure to this specialist area.
A focus on a single, specialist sector can cause significant volatility though. Overall we prefer to invest with fund managers...
