As of this writing, ASA’s Board has not announced how it will proceed. On June 30, 2026, Merk Investments concluded its management of ASA after the Saba-controlled Board terminated Merk’s advisory agreement. Certain Fund directors, including a Saba partner, have assumed responsibility for ASA’s management.

Axel Merk owns over 300,000 shares of ASA Gold and Precious Metals Limited. He serves as President and Chief Investment Officer of Merk Investments LLC, which served as the Fund’s investment adviser until June 30, 2026. He also recently resigned as Chief Operating Officer of ASA.

This site and its content have not been approved by ASA Gold & Precious Metals Ltd. (the “Company”). The Company concentrates its investments in the gold and precious minerals sector, which may be more volatile than other industries and influenced by changes in commodity prices driven by international economic and political developments. The Company is a non-diversified fund, which may result in higher risk through reduced portfolio diversification. It may also invest in smaller-sized and foreign companies, which may be more volatile, less liquid, and subject to additional risks, including currency fluctuations. Shares of closed-end funds like ASA frequently trade at a discount to net asset value.
