Yes. When you invest in an ETF on Mintos, you own shares (also called units) in that ETF directly. These are held in your name in a segregated custody account, separate from Mintos’ own assets.
As the registered holder of ETF shares, you benefit from the legal protections that come with direct ownership. This means that even in the unlikely event of Mintos experiencing financial difficulties, your ETF shares remain yours and are recoverable from the custodian.
You do not directly own the individual securities held inside the ETF (such as the underlying company shares). However, you do have a proportional economic interest in the ETF’s entire portfolio, which means your investment rises and falls in line with the ETF’s performance.
