Sprott Physical Gold and Silver Trust (the Trust) is a Canada-based closed-end mutual fund trust. Sprott Asset Management LP (the Manager) is the manager of the Trust. The Trust invests and holds substantially all of its assets in physical gold and silver bullion and seeks to provide a secure, convenient and exchange-traded investment alternative for investors interested in holding physical bullion without the inconvenience, which is typical of a direct investment in physical bullion. The Trust intends to achieve its objective by investing primarily in long-term holdings of unencumbered, fully allocated, physical gold and silver bullion, and does not speculate with regard to short-term changes in bullion prices.
