Selling paper shares, what options?

Atlantic Dawn · 2020-08-27 21:18:54

I have some shares in paper form as share certificates that I wish to sell, who would you recommend to use? Is Cantor Fitzgerald the best option? Davy Select looks to require an account setup. It will be a one off sell, I don't need share dealing facilities afterwards. Thanks.

I did same thing recently- once off for some very old share certs and I used Davy. They required my ID to get set up but was smooth and quick, then I posted in the share cert.

This enabled me to trade online and leverage lower trading costs: and I then picked my day to sell.

No further costs etc after the selling fee. From memory €20k of shares was around €250.

Hope this helps
