CHESS subregister
The CHESS subregister is maintained by ASX Settlement and is one of two ways a shareholder can be identified as the legal owner of their shares. To be registered on CHESS, a shareholder needs a signed sponsorship agreement with a sponsoring broker, which is typically their broker or a settlement agent. A shareholder’s sponsoring broker manages securities transfers to and from an investor’s CHESS holdings, based on the shareholder’s instructions and under the terms of their sponsorship agreement.
