Our
deepest sympathies go out to you and your family. When you are ready, we are
here to help and provide the necessary resources for the re-registration of an
account.
·
Who
can re-register an account:
§ Beneficiaries: These
individuals or entities are designated by the account owner(s) while they
actively hold an account
§ Executor(s) of one’s
Estate: When a beneficiary is not designated (and in some other circumstances)
the account would need to be re-registered to the accounts owners’ estate. This
is done via probate through the local court in which they will appoint an
administrator or executor for the deceased estate
§ Successor Trustee(s):
For Trust registered accounts, trust documents would list successor trustee(s)
to maintain the trust after the current trustee has passed away
§ Please note that we are
unable to accept designation or direction from any type of a Will or Last
Testament for re-registration
