Instead, you can buy fractions of artwork, sharing your investment with other investors. You don\u2019t have to worry about buying, storing, insuring or selling the artwork, as this is all dealt with by Mintus\u2019 experts and covered by the fees you pay. We\u2019ve explored how Mintus works, how Mintus is different to buying art and what you\u2019ll pay to invest in art with Mintus.<\/p><h3>What is Mintus?<\/h3><p>Mintus is an investment platform that lets you buy fractions of major artwork, letting you diversify your portfolio more than you could with a typical investment broker. You can choose the individual piece of artwork that you\u2019d like to invest in and choose how many shares of it you\u2019d like to buy. Mintus deals with sourcing the art, storage, valuation and selling. It is valued annually, at which point you have the chance to sell your share on the secondary market to other investors. <\/p><p>Mintus\u2019 experts aim to sell the artwork at its peak to make you the best profits it can. When it decides to sell, you\u2019ll either make a profit or a loss on your original investment \u2014 at this point, Mintus takes its fee.<\/p><div class=\"did-you-know u-bg--sky-subtle u-rounded--lg\" data-component=\"did-you-know\">\n        <div class=\"did-you-know__block\">\n        <h4 class=\"did-you-know__title\">\n            <span class=\"did-you-know__title-icon\">\n                <svg width=\"32\" height=\"32\" viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\n                    <circle cx=\"16\" cy=\"16\" r=\"12\" fill=\"#00B2FF\"><\/circle>\n                    <path d=\"M17.5 22.5C17.5 22.7967 17.412 23.0867 17.2472 23.3334C17.0824 23.58 16.8481 23.7723 16.574 23.8858C16.2999 23.9993 15.9983 24.0291 15.7074 23.9712C15.4164 23.9133 15.1491 23.7704 14.9393 23.5607C14.7296 23.3509 14.5867 23.0836 14.5288 22.7926C14.471 22.5017 14.5007 22.2001 14.6142 21.926C14.7277 21.6519 14.92 21.4176 15.1667 21.2528C15.4133 21.088 15.7033 21 16 21C16.3978 21 16.7794 21.158 17.0607 21.4393C17.342 21.7206 17.5 22.1022 17.5 22.5ZM16 9C13.2425 9 11 11.0188 11 13.5V14C11 14.2652 11.1054 14.5196 11.2929 14.7071C11.4804 14.8946 11.7348 15 12 15C12.2652 15 12.5196 14.8946 12.7071 14.7071C12.8946 14.5196 13 14.2652 13 14V13.5C13 12.125 14.3463 11 16 11C17.6538 11 19 12.125 19 13.5C19 14.875 17.6538 16 16 16C15.7348 16 15.4804 16.1054 15.2929 16.2929C15.1054 16.4804 15 16.7348 15 17V18C15 18.2652 15.1054 18.5196 15.2929 18.7071C15.4804 18.8946 15.7348 19 16 19C16.2652 19 16.5196 18.8946 16.7071 18.7071C16.8946 18.5196 17 18.2652 17 18V17.91C19.28 17.4913 21 15.6725 21 13.5C21 11.0188 18.7575 9 16 9ZM29 16C29 18.5712 28.2376 21.0846 26.8091 23.2224C25.3807 25.3603 23.3503 27.0265 20.9749 28.0104C18.5995 28.9944 15.9856 29.2518 13.4638 28.7502C10.9421 28.2486 8.6257 27.0105 6.80762 25.1924C4.98953 23.3743 3.75141 21.0579 3.2498 18.5362C2.74819 16.0144 3.00563 13.4006 3.98957 11.0251C4.97351 8.64968 6.63975 6.61935 8.77759 5.1909C10.9154 3.76244 13.4288 3 16 3C19.4467 3.00364 22.7512 4.37445 25.1884 6.81163C27.6256 9.24882 28.9964 12.5533 29 16ZM27 16C27 13.8244 26.3549 11.6977 25.1462 9.88873C23.9375 8.07979 22.2195 6.66989 20.2095 5.83733C18.1995 5.00476 15.9878 4.78692 13.854 5.21136C11.7202 5.6358 9.76021 6.68345 8.22183 8.22183C6.68345 9.7602 5.63581 11.7202 5.21137 13.854C4.78693 15.9878 5.00477 18.1995 5.83733 20.2095C6.66989 22.2195 8.07979 23.9375 9.88873 25.1462C11.6977 26.3549 13.8244 27 16 27C18.9164 26.9967 21.7123 25.8367 23.7745 23.7745C25.8367 21.7123 26.9967 18.9164 27 16Z\" fill=\"#232320\"><\/path>\n                <\/svg>\n            <\/span>\n            <span class=\"did-you-know__title-text\">Must read<\/span>\n        <\/h4>\n        <div class=\"did-you-know__content\">\n            It\u2019s important to note that Mintus is an alternative investment platform \u2014 the art that you can invest in on the platform is only valued and available to sell on the secondary market once per year, making it relatively illiquid (i.e. not convertible to cash quickly and\/or easily). This makes these types of investments riskier than not very easy to sell), your investments with Mintus hold more risk than other kinds of investments such as shares or funds.<br><br>If you\u2019re just starting out with investing, take a look at our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/uk\/investing-for-beginners\">guide to beginner investing<\/a> to find out some investments better suited to beginners.<br><br>To invest in art with Mintus you\u2019ll need to either be a \u201csophisticated investor\u201d or have a high net worth. This allows you to diversify your funds appropriately and understand the risks involved.\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3>How does Mintus work?<\/h3><p>Mintus is able to fractionalise paintings with a relatively new process called \u201csecuritisation\u201d. This is where a holding company is created for a piece of artwork so that individual shares can be sold. Investors own a share of the company that owns that one piece of artwork. <\/p><p>Mintus is authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority.<\/p><h3>What type of art does Mintus offer?<\/h3><p>At the moment, Mintus only has two pieces of art available on its platform.<\/p><h4><i>Self Portrait<\/i> by Andy Warhol<\/h4><p>The first is Andy Warhol\u2019s <i>Self-Portrait<\/i><br><i>Self Portrait<\/i> was painted in 1966.

We\u2019ve been creating art for as long as humans have been on this earth, with early art including cave paintings and statuettes. Some art is known to hold significant value \u2014 Leonardo Da Vinci\u2019s Mona Lisa was assessed at $100 million (\u00a387.8 million) in 1962, which translated to around $900 million (\u00a3790 million) in 2021 once inflation was considered. <\/p><p>The key is in knowing which art is likely to rise in value \u2014 sadly, your child\u2019s masterpiece from nursery probably doesn\u2019t make the cut, but it looks great on the fridge. Art experts will have a good understanding of the industry and be able to identify which art could be a viable investment. If you\u2019re not an art expert, a platform like Mintus could be a good call as you\u2019d benefit from Mintus\u2019s art experts.  <\/p><h3>Shares vs art: which should I invest in?<\/h3><p>Most art investors will already hold a significant and diverse portfolio of shares and funds.
