What is an outstanding action and what do I need to do?

Outstanding actions are tasks you need to action to finalise your nabtrade account. To check whether you have any outstanding actions on your account: Login > Admin > Personal Details. This may include finalising your verification, or completing any transfers of shares to your nabtrade account. 

If you have opened an account with more than one account holder, e.g. a joint account, there will likely be outstanding actions for the other account holder to login and action as well. Please get the other account holder to check their outstanding actions, as the processing of a particular form or instruction might be delayed by their failure to do so.

Further information on the different types of outstanding actions, what they mean and what you need to do are detailed below.

You have requested to transfer shares into your nabtrade account from another broker. To complete this transfer, you will need to sign and return a Broker to Broker Transfer Form

 

If you have selected this in error please click the ‘X”. 

 

NOTE: if you have opted to transfer your HIN and all holdings from another broker, your nabtrade account will not be active until that transfer has been completed and we have received your HIN.

You have requested to transfer shares to your nabtrade account from one or more share registries. This is for shares that are not held with another broker. To complete this transfer you will need to select ‘Complete’ and follow the prompts. 

 

Any joint account holders will also need to select Complete from the Outstanding actions page on their login. Alternatively, you may sign and return an Issuer to Broker Transfer Form.

You have not provided us with your personal TFN. While not compulsory, if we do not have your TFN on file we will be required to deduct Withholding Tax on any interest we pay to you. Your TFN is also required before your International Trading Account is able to be activated.

By providing us your Tax File Number, this will also be passed on to the share registries for any of your personal share holdings.

If you have a company or trust account, please also check that the TFN for that entity is held. This can be seen at Admin > Personal Details > Account Tax Details on the right hand side of the page.
