The B-Index Gold BRL B3 ETF (OURO11) is a Brazilian exchange-traded fund designed to track the performance of the B3 Gold Futures Index (IFGold B3), a benchmark that measures the total return of a theoretical portfolio based on gold futures contracts.
Managed by Bradesco Asset Management, the ETF trades under the ticker OURO11 on the B3 and provides investors with exposure to gold through the Brazilian futures market. Classified as a commodity ETF, OURO11 follows a passive management strategy.
The fund seeks to replicate the IFGold B3, which is based on the nearest-expiration B3 Gold Futures Contract (GLD) and follows a monthly roll schedule. Cash associated with the strategy is assumed to be invested in instruments linked to the one-day DI rate or the Selic Over rate.
Unlike physically backed gold ETFs, OURO11 does not rely on direct ownership of physical bullion or on an international ETF backed by gold. Instead, its exposure is primarily obtained through futures contracts traded in the Brazilian market.

The B3 Gold Futures Index is designed to measure the total return of a theoretical portfolio holding the nearest-expiration Gold Futures Contract.
