A Transfer Agent is a specialized entity or company that manages and facilitates the transfer of ownership of securities, such as stocks and bonds, on behalf of issuers and shareholders. They ensure the accurate and efficient processing of securities transactions, including the issuance, transfer, and cancellation of securities. Transfer Agents also maintain shareholder records, handle dividend distributions, and assist with corporate actions such as stock splits or mergers.
