Share Certificates

MACKEM99 · 2022-09-30 15:45:40

Over many years I have collected numerous share certificates. This is due to me taking shares instead of dividends, with a certificate for anything between 1 and several shares. Do I need to keep them all? Thanks M99

If Equiniti are the registrars for any of your shares and you decide to use their services for ease, note that they charge 1.5% (minimum £45) for paper share dealing and 1% (minimum £20) if your shares are held digitally, so you can see why companies like x-o look so attractive from a cost perspective.
