Hi Gurus , am newbie to digital / paper gold or ETFs , Mutual Funds , etc.

So there is ,
Maribank Gold Invest , expense ratio 0.5%
Spdr Gold ETF sgd , expense ratio 0.4%.
So is 0.1% the only difference between the 2 options?
is there any other cost consideration , spread difference , etc?

Than there is UOB gold savings a/c too with a spread of 0.5% plus annual fee of 0.25%.
And OCBC precious metal a/c with a much higher spread of about 1.5% to 2% but no annual fees.
