It's now easier to sell shares than ever before. If you hold shares that are Issuer Sponsored, you do not even need to open an account in order to sell them.
You'll know if you have Issuer Sponsored shares by looking at your Holdings Statement - if it has a Shareholder Reference Number (SRN), then the shares are Issuer Sponsored.
You might wish to use this service if:
- You have shares you received in a float or demutualisation (For example, NRMA, AMP, Commonwealth Bank etc)
- You have shares that you wish to sell, but you do not want to open an account.
You will need your holding statement for all shares you wish to sell, and you must ensure the name and address on the statement is correct - contact the share registry to make any changes before trying to sell the shares. Contact details should be on the statement.

Certification of Identification
Under the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act 2006, we need a copy of your identification that has been certified as a true copy. Usually the certifier will view your ID and write words to the effect that they seen the original ID. In addition they need to state their capacity to sign (e.g. Police Officer, Justice of the Peace) and that the copy is a true and accurate copy of that ID. They will then sign, date and place their contact details on the copy. You then need to send us that copy via post (not fax or email).
Certification can be completed by a range of people:
- Justices of the Peace
- Australia Post employees
- Police Officers
- Judges and some court officials
- Some bank employees
- If you will have trouble meeting the identification requirements, please call us on 1300 880 160.
Payment
On the day of settlement (generally 3 business days after the trade), a cheque will be posted to the address as shown on your holding statement, made out in the name of the shareholder.
