As of October 1, 2015, Computershare has expanded our offering of transactions that utilize DRS as the preferred issuance method. Your securityholders will continue to have the same rights and privileges as holders of physical certificates and can request a certificate, where available, if they prefer.
If you have not yet taken advantage of the many benefits and efficiencies of our DRS service, please contact your Relationship Manager.
Computershare has been at the forefront of DRS in Canada since its inception and is leading the effort to move to book-entry security ownership - in place of physical certificates - in England, Australia and the US. Computershare also offers Canadian organizations the opportunity to take advantage of certificateless recordkeeping and processing.
