Good Control Location

Engaging a transfer agent is mandated by the SEC for issuers conducting S-1 registrations or securities offerings under Regulation A+, unless 12(g) exempt.

Efficient transfer agent operations are critical to the successful completion of secondary trades. Reg D and Reg CF issuers will be looking to transfer agents who offer a streamlined solution.

Immutable proof of the holder’s identity is maintained by CustodyWare while the actual identity documentation is securely stored by the transfer agent in a regulatory compliant storage media pursuant to SEC Regulation S-P.

How it works

1

The issuer engages an SEC registered transfer agent in the CustodyWare community to manage investors’ shareholdings.

2

The electronic assets remain the property of the investor, and the investor has complete control of movement, however, appointing a transfer agent enables safe and transparent management of the assets.

3

Utilizing a transfer agent sets up an issuer’s securities for increased liquidity potential as such securities can be moved to “street-name” for secondary trading on an SEC-regulated ATS.

4

On instruction from an investor, transfer agents can execute transfers and releases to secondary trading.

5

CustodyWare-powered transfer agents can maintain post-offering up-to-date shareholder listings, reports, distributions, proxy information, etc. with the cap table management software.
