Global X Physical Palladium (ETPMPD) — Review & Analysis
ETPMPD is the ASX's only dedicated physical palladium ETF, backed by allocated bullion held in London. AUM is $21.84 million with a 0.49% p.a. fee. Palladium is a precious metal used overwhelmingly in petrol-vehicle catalytic converters, with Russia and South Africa producing the majority of global supply. Compare ETPMPD across precious metals on our commodities and resources ETF page.
Palladium has the most concentrated industrial demand of all the precious metals — over 80% goes into auto catalysts. That makes the price highly sensitive to global auto production cycles, EV adoption (which displaces palladium demand) and Russian supply disruptions.
Palladium spiked to all-time highs in 2022 following the Russia-Ukraine conflict before falling sharply as EV penetration accelerated. The simpler alternative is ETPMPM, the precious metals basket which includes palladium alongside gold, silver and platinum.
ETPMPD is a specialist tool rather than a broad portfolio holding — the narrow demand base and EV substitution risk make it more speculative than gold or silver. The fund is unhedged. Our gold and precious metal ETF options guide covers every precious metals option on the ASX.
