Depending on the savings amount you’ve set and the respective stock price, it may happen that you don’t acquire whole stocks but fractions.
Our fractional share offering consists of real fractional shares. This means that rather than working with third-party providers or derivative offerings, which can only represent the shares, we instead provide the fractional shares ourselves. So when you invest in fractional shares with Trade Republic, you own real fractions of shares.
Your dividend entitlement applies to both whole stocks and fractions. In the event of a dividend payment, the dividend will be paid to you on a pro rata basis for your fractions as well. Please note that the fractions are also part of Trade Republic's special assets and thus protected from insolvency.
