As custodian, Texas Precious Metals holds and safekeeps every ounce of the funds' physical gold and silver in fully allocated bars at its depositories-offering investors a domestic, U.S.-vaulted option for the first time in history. Each gold and silver bar backing the funds is uniquely identified by bar number and specification, allocated to the funds' account, and held in a specified area within the Texas Precious Metals Depository. Unlike many existing bullion ETFs that rely on unallocated pool holdings- which can expose investors to the credit risk of clearing banks-the Y’all Street funds are structured so that none of the funds' metal is held on an unallocated basis.
