Our read on FXC
CThe plain-vanilla loonie trade: FXC holds actual Canadian dollars in a London bank account, no futures, no swaps, and has done it that way since 2006. A foreign-currency account you can buy in a brokerage window.
The Trust seeks to reflect the U.S.-dollar price of the Canadian Dollar, plus any accrued interest and after Trust expenses. It is intended to provide a direct, cost-effective way to obtain investment exposure similar to holding Canadian Dollars.
Why people hold it
- Physically backed: real Canadian dollars sit in a JPMorgan Chase London deposit account, no derivatives involved, with the trust's holdings posted every business day.sec.gov
- Trading since 2006 and built for one job: exposure similar to holding Canadian dollars, without opening a separate currency account.
- The cash can earn interest. It accrues daily on the trust's primary deposit account, and the trust distributes monthly.sec.gov
- Fee sits at 0.40% a year, even with the median single-currency fund. Nobody in this corner is undercutting anybody.
Worth knowing
- Thinly traded, so what you pay to get in and out can matter more than the 0.40% fee.
- The depository sets the interest rate and can move it to zero or below zero, which would shrink or halt what flows through to shareholders.sec.gov
- One currency, no cushion: the whole ride is the Canadian dollar against the US dollar, and the money sits in deposit accounts at a single bank.sec.gov
