Deceased Estates

Transmission to a joint holder: Where shares are held jointly, an application for transmission to a joint holder should be completed and submitted to the Company together with a copy of probate or death certificate. If a new Share Certificate is required, the original Share Certificates should accompany the application for transmission.

Transmission to the executors: An application for transmission of shares to the executor of a deceased estate should be forwarded to the Company together with a copy of probate or the death certificate where probate is not granted. If a new Share Certificate is required, the original Share Certificates should accompany the application for transmission.

Transfer to a beneficiary or third party: A transfer of shares form should be completed by the executor and the transferee. The signed transfer form and the original Share Certificate should then be submitted to the Board for registration of the transfer. (Please note that stamp duty has been abolished in NSW.)

If required, an executor of a deceased estate may also access our Trading Shares page to identify a potential buyer.
