World Gold Trust Services, LLC, the sponsor of the SPDR® Gold Trust (NYSE Arca: GLD), announced today that effective fromMarch 20, 2015 at 3:30 p.m. GMT, the SPDR® Gold Trust (the “Trust”) will use the London Bullion Market Association Gold Price(“LBMA Gold Price”) when determining the net asset value (“NAV”) of the Trust.
