Selling your shares

Link receive hundreds of calls each week from shareholders wanting to know how they can sell their shares. Ordinarily, issuer sponsored shareholders must establish a relationship with a stockbroker in order to sell their shares. However the Share Sale Centre provides issuer sponsored shareholders with a simple, reliable and affordable alternative to traditional share sale services. You will need to sell your entire shareholding. 

Under the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter Terrorism Financing Act 2006, Link must take steps to identify investors before selling securities for them. Therefore, you may need to complete an AML/CTF Customer Identification Information Form.

For more information on terms, conditions and eligible issuers please contact Link Market Services on Sydney (02) 8280 7111.

If you are chess issuer sponsored you will need to contact your broker.

You will need your SRN or HIN to sell your shares. If you are looking for investment advice or want to buy (and sell) shares regularly, then you need to consult your broker or register for many of the share trading facilities available online. If you don’t have a relationship with a broker, or are looking for a new broker, the Australian Stock Exchange can assist you.
