Merge proposal[edit]

User 50.74.174.58 has suggested that this article be merged with transfer agent as they appear to cover the same subject.

Agree, it seems both articles seem to cover the same subject and I think we should merge these articles. Sargdub (talk) 22:07, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Agree, they talk about the same thing. As this proposal has been out there for a while, I have taken the liberty to move additional contents from Transfer agent into this article and placed a redirect. _pseudonym Jake Brockman ^talk 08:35, 18 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Stock transfer agent → Transfer agent – 'Stock transfer agent' is a narrow term referring only to those transfer agents that manage stock transfers and shareholder registries for publicly traded companies. The broader term 'transfer agent' includes transfer agents that manage non-stock ownership shares (securities) in both public and private investment funds. The full universe of transfer agents is better represented by the broader term.
