How do I sell issuer sponsored shares as the executor of a deceased estate?

If you are the executor or beneficiary of a deceased estate, please notify us of the customer’s passing by phoning us on 13 15 19 or +61 2 8397 1206 if calling from outside Australia, 8am to 6pm (Sydney time).

CommSec does not provide a facility in which issuer sponsored shares can be sold in the case of deceased estates. However, if probate has been granted, you may open an Estate Trust Account with CommSec and transfer the issuer sponsored shares into this account through an Off Market Transfer.

Alternatively, we recommend you speak to the relevant share registry to discuss your options.
