Alternatively, you may wish to link your existing CDP account to your FSM Global account to sell your CDP Stocks/ETFs to minimise transfers and risks as you will not be able to access the transferring security. To apply and link your CDP Securities Account, please login and proceed to Account Settings > Sell from CDP. You are required to fill up your CDP Securities Account Number for this online submission. Once submitted, the linkage process will take approximately 2 to 3 business days to complete. You will be notified via email on the outcome of the linkage.

The handling of the corporate action depends entirely on which entity holds the shares on the Record Date set by the company.

• If FSM Global still holds your shares on the Record Date (i.e., the transfer to your new broker is not yet complete), the corporate action will be processed and credited by FSM Global.
• If your shares have been successfully transferred and are officially held in your account with the new broker (the counterparty) on the Record Date, the corporate action will be processed and handled entirely by your new broker. FSM Global will not be involved.
