What is a Custodian?

A Custodian is basically an organisation, which helps register and safeguard
the securities of its clients.

Besides safeguarding securities, a custodian also keeps track of corporate
actions on behalf of its clients:

  • Maintaining a client’s securities account
  • Collecting the benefits or rights accruing to the client in respect of securities
  • Keeping the client informed of the actions taken or to be taken by the issue of securities, having a bearing on the benefits or rights accruing to the client.
