Online elections provide you with a fast and easy way to manage your clients participation in market offers.
Our online service aims to increase efficiency around equities administration by:
Removing paper work – You no longer have to complete an election form for each client.
Electing in bulk – Our online service allows you to easily apply a single election across multiple clients. You can also make individual elections for different clients.
Improved workflow – You will now receive email notifications and reminders about any outstanding elections for your clients. Corporate action offer documents will be available online, so you can access them as soon as the election becomes available. Plus, you can generate confirmations in PDF to assist with obtaining client signatures.
Less follow up – Client elections will now be validated as you authorise them, ensuring your clients have sufficient available cash and any action rules are adhered to.
Improved audit trail – Full election history will now be maintained online for 13 months.
