    The chain ends here. No other entity reports iShares Gold Trust as its parent, so the count is a stated zero rather than data still to arrive.

Level 2 data records who consolidates this entity. A reported relationship, or a reported reason for the absence of one, both satisfy the standard. Only a record carrying neither is incomplete. This is usual for funds. Umbrella, manager and sub-fund relationships are recorded in the fund structure below.
