Legacy Stock Transfer understands that handling your shareholders’ purchases, redemptions, and other service requests are an extension of your firm’s responsibilities. We also know your plate may be full as you try to focus on sales and marketing. This is why we’re here – to help you with shareholder communications and build a relationship of trust.
Given our extensive experience in the securities industry, you can be confident that we’re capable of handling your investor’s unique needs and requirements.
As a trusted stock transfer agent, you can come to us for help such as requests for issuance of new and lost certificates and other inquiries you may have about your shares.
Once investors are on board, Legacy Stock Transfer treats those shareholders as though they were our own.
We provide for their ongoing needs, handle a wide range of activities, and serve corporations in various capacities. These are the shareholder and transfer agency services we offer:
We maintain and manage records of shareholders, preparing the official list of all registered shares and shareholders. The technology that we use allows us to keep all pertinent information current to ensure that mailings, distributions, and communications get to the right person in the right place.
We are well-versed with the SEC rules and regulations that apply to ourselves and our clients. As experts, we facilitate the accurate and prompt clearance of all transactions and keep you compliant all throughout the process of mergers, stock splits, name changes, etc.
We make sure shareholders are issued certificates whenever they purchase a new stock or bond, or in the case a company executes a stock split. Not only do we oversee stock exchanges, we also make sure they are properly executed – that old certificates are canceled and new ones are issued and recorded.
Legacy Stock Transfer is a recognized transfer agent with the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation. We are authorized to handle transfers in DWAC, FAST, and DRS systems. Here’s why you should leave shareholder services to us!
We do the transfers for you! Our team is always available to answer questions you have regarding your account.
The information you provide is kept private and is secured by SSL technology to maintain the confidentiality of all your transactions.
You get a copy of your certificates quickly as they are sent electronically. It’s not only fast and easy, it’s also a great way to organize your accounts.
