Continental Transfer & Trust Draws its Passion for Excellence from the Company’s Highest Office

Ask any public company CEO and he or she will likely tell you that their stock transfer agent plays a pivotal role in their investor efforts through the issuance of securities and subsequent transfers that result in sales, purchases, reorganizations, tender offers, and other transfers of ownership. More specifically, stock transfer agents are involved in issuing stock certificates that reflect increases in the number of outstanding shares such as initial issuance, stock splits, stock dividends and dividend reinvestment programs. With issued shares being traded on the open market, stock certificates are sent to the transfer agent who will cancel the shares registered in the name of the seller and issue a stock certificate registered in the name of the buyer. Vital to transactions involving the transfer of securities is the maintenance of accurate ownership records with regard to issued securities, since it is the registered owners of the securities who enjoy the ownership rights. It is the responsibility of the transfer agent to maintain up to date records in this area.

Company’s such as Continental Transfer & Trust, New York, NY, have embodied and defined the industry standard for professionalism, integrity and trust for more than a half century. The company coddles its customer with impeccably accurate, personal service that results in a sense of confidence and peace of mind that can only be termed invaluable. What’s more, companies do not achieve the enviable status Continental enjoys by accident. It is accomplished through a steadfast belief and passion that stems from the company’s leadership – and in this case, one does not need look further than the office of President and Chairman, Steven Nelson.

Possessing more than three decades of direct industry experience, Mr. Nelson employs a ‘hands-on’ approach uncommon these days from any company’s highest ranking executive. His involvement extends into day-to-day organizational and administrative issues through the overall management of client initiatives. An attorney by trade with a background in public and private practice, he is a member of the New York State and Federal Bars. He has practiced at Simpson Thacher & Bartlett, and as a federal prosecutor. Steven is a member of the Securities Transfer Association Board, and chairs its Legal Committee, which is active in promoting important changes within the industry. Graduating magna cum laude from Brandeis University at Waltham, Massachusetts, he is a past recipient of Law Review honors from NYU Law School.

Founded in 1964 to support small to midsize emerging companies, Continental aims for the highest level of client responsiveness through a uniquely customized set of business solutions. The company has embraced and maintained this vision and commitment to this specific market throughout its history.
