Our read on FXA
In short
CThe Aussie corner of Invesco's CurrencyShares family: a grantor trust running since 2006 that tracks the price of the Australian dollar itself, not a basket of stocks that happen to be exposed to it.
Stated mandate
The Trust is designed to reflect the U.S.-dollar price of the Australian Dollar, plus accrued interest when applicable, after Trust expenses and liabilities. It is a passive vehicle that holds Australian Dollar deposits and does not use derivatives.
