It is very common for shareholders to lose touch with their companies. Many just forget to notify the company’s registry of a change of address. The company may then be taken over, go into liquidation or simply change its name.

Ask yourself, do you still have the shares or are you due any money from your shares?

InvestoGain’s associate, deListed, has for many years run a widely recommended lost share service in Australia for a small fee.  Many NZ residents having lived or worked in Australia, or who have held Australian-based shares, utilise this facility. Many have unclaimed Australian dollar entitlements, of which they are obviously unaware.

Our searches determine if you are the possible recipient of unclaimed monies arising from the compulsory acquisition of shares or the distribution of a dividend. We also find previous superannuation contributions, inoperative bank, building society or credit union accounts and missing bequests or other distributions from an estate.

If you are a New Zealander living in Australia, or if you previously lived in Australia, we recommend you access our facility Australian Lost shares Lost money service here.
