Computershare

Computershare provides corporate escrow for M&A, performance obligations, construction projects and investor settlements. A dedicated team holds money and securities and releases them under an individually agreed escrow agreement. The cash escrow service is presented separately from software escrow.

Services Five services are listed: business escrow, indemnification escrow, performance escrow, construction escrow and paying agent. Indemnification escrow keeps part of an acquisition price aside to cover possible claims after closing, while performance escrow secures the fulfilment of contractual obligations. A paying agent distributes payments to investors on behalf of an issuer.

Assets and clients The assets held are money and securities. Computershare works with private and public companies, investment banks and asset managers, and its provider type is recorded as corporate trust and transfer agent.

Markets The United States and Canada are the recorded markets.
