Share Dealing

You can buy or sell shares through a stockbroker or share dealing service. There are a variety of services available. Some take orders to buy or sell shares via the Internet and many operate telephone or postal dealing services.

Equiniti Financial Services Limited offers a share dealing service called Shareview Dealing which allows you to buy and sell shares held in a Corporate Sponsored Nominee account or in a certificated format using our online service or by calling 08456 037 037.

If you want to sell shares you will need your share certificate or Corporate Sponsored Nominee account number with you.  If you want to buy shares you will need your debit card to pay for the transaction.

The rates of commission charged by providers vary depending on the kind of service that you are looking for. The cheapest way to deal in shares is usually on an 'execution only' basis. This means that a broker will act on your instructions to buy or sell but will not give you advice on the merits of the transaction.

If you have a holding in a Corporate Nominee Service you may be able to use special share dealing services.

If you have shares in an employee scheme, please check the relevant terms and conditions before selling as you may need to use a nominated dealing service applicable to that Corporate Sponsored Nominee.

The value of shares and the income, if any, from them can go down as well as up.
