Vstock Transfer Partners with eShares to Issue Electronic Stock and Options for Crowdfunded Companies
Palo Alto, CA (PRWEB) January 13, 2014 -- eShares, the platform that replaces paper stock certificates with electronic shares, today announced its partnership with VStock Transfer, a leading stock transfer agent. The partnership is geared to provide private issuers and crowdfunding platforms with a unique combination of cutting edge technology and stock transfer administrative services to enhance the customer experience and bring full electronic equity management to issuers, as well as electronic record keeping to shareholders.
“We believe that our partnership with eShares allows us to offer an innovative solution where Silicon Valley and Wall Street come together to enable Vstock Transfer to offer a more robust array of services to our customers. We feel confident that we will be able to leverage this arrangement for our emerging growth companies that are looking to benefit from the new JOBS Act regulations,” said Seth Farbman, Chairman of Vstock Transfer. “eShares technology will enable companies to keep administrative costs down, eliminate all shipping expenses and have electronic issuances and real time cap table data at their fingertips. As a result of our relationship with eShares, private companies can now benefit from transfer agent services similar to our public companies and IPO clients,” explained Yoel Goldfeder, CEO of Vstock Transfer.
Although private companies of all sizes can benefit from this technology, this is particularly valuable to crowdfunded companies. With crowdfunding, there are usually many investors with smaller investments, making it difficult to manage large shareholder ledgers and ensure no mistakes are made. eShares technology is able to manage even the most complex capitalization tables and maintain a full audit history of the equity transactions.

It is also a natural fit for eShares and Vstock Transfer to offer this compliance oriented solution ”
