Key Terms
transfer agencyfinancial
A transfer agency is the service or department that keeps official records of who owns a company’s or fund’s shares and handles changes in ownership, transfers, share issuance, dividend payments and investor communications. Think of it as the ledger-keeper and post office for stock ownership: accurate, timely record-keeping and handling of transactions matters to investors because it ensures they receive dividends, can buy or sell shares, and have their voting and ownership rights recognized without delay or error.
investor servicingfinancial
Processes and support that keep an investor’s ownership, payments and communications accurate and up to date — including maintaining records, handling share transfers, paying dividends, managing proxy voting, and answering shareholder questions. Think of it like a bank’s customer service and back-office combined: it ensures investors receive what they’re owed, can trade or prove ownership smoothly, and reduces administrative risks that could affect a stock’s liquidity, reputation or value.
money market fundsfinancial
A money market fund is a pooled investment that buys very short-term, low-risk debt like government bills and commercial paper to provide a safe place to park cash. Think of it as a public savings jar that aims to preserve your money while paying a small amount of interest and allowing quick access—important to investors who want liquidity and capital protection without locking funds into longer-term, higher-risk investments.
blue sky state securities lawsregulatory
State 'blue sky' securities laws are state-level rules that require companies and brokers to register investments and provide basic disclosures to protect local investors from fraud, much like local traffic laws that complement national highway rules. They matter to investors because compliance affects whether securities can be legally sold in a state, how much information buyers see, and whether regulators can block or reverse offerings if misconduct is suspected.
