Let's Recap what is ETF

$STI ETF(ES3.SI)$ 

An ETF is an investment fund that attempts to follow the performance of a specific grouping of securities, represented by an index. 

It does this by purchasing shares of the securities in the index, in the same proportion. For example, say DBS makes up 20% of Index A. An ETF that tracks Index A would allocate 20% of its funds into DBS shares. 

When you invest in an ETF, you own a stake of the fund, not the underlying securities. As ETFs pool together money from many investors, investing in an ETF is a way to purchase the securities you want (and reap the potential benefits) at a lower capital cost. 

ETFs also offer diversification, high liquidity and variety. You can select ETFs that invest in asset classes ranging from stocks, to bonds and commodities.
