According to Shakespeare’s Prince of Morocco: “All that glistens is not gold.” But you would be forgiven for assuming the opposite, as gold hits record prices, and investors scramble for ways to be exposed to the sector.

Currently trading at $1,457 per ounce, a recent Standard Chartered report predicted gold may hit $2,107/oz in 2014. Such a price may put investors off investing in physical gold. One way around the problem is to invest in companies that are exposed to the precious metal. But that is not as easy as it seems.
