Streamline complex corporate reorganizations and rollovers by exchanging holdings into multiple share/unit classes within a single transaction record

Overview

This feature allows users to initiate an Exchange transaction from a single source holding and distribute the value across multiple share/unit classes, either within the same Entity or into a different Entity. This functionality ensures accurate Cap Tables and transaction histories for Section 86 exchanges and other rollover activities without requiring manual duplicate entries.

Availability: All customers.


Initiate the Exchange Transaction

  • Navigate to the Entities module and select the specific Entity where the source shares/units are held

  • Select the Ownership section from the left-hand navigation menu

  • Click the New button in the top right corner

  • Select Exchange from the list of transaction types

  • Select the specific source Holding or certificate number being exchanged

  • Enter the number of shares/units to be exchanged in the Amount field

  • Select the Price Per Share/Unit for the source holding

  • Choose whether to leave the remaining balance on the existing certificate or issue a new one by toggling the Balance options


Add Multiple Receiving Share/Unit Classes
