Issuer Agent Portal | DTCC

  • About

    Developed specifically for the agent, trustee and issuer community, the Issuer Agent Portal provides a means for direct submission of Legal, Tax, and Transfer Agent notices to LENS to comply with Rule 17Ad-16 of the Securities and Exchange Commission Act of 1934.

    Please note: The Issuer Agent Portal (IAP) is not intended for posting Corporate Action notices that require DTC’s direct action and should be used only as a supplementary resource for such notices. However, the IAP is the primary channel for submitting Transfer Agent notices related to Rule 17Ad-16 that do require DTC’s direct action.

    To facilitate the solicitation of consents, the applicable Issuer or Agent shall establish a record date for such purposes and send notice of such record date to DTC's Reorganization Announcements Proxy Department no fewer than 15 calendar days prior to the expiration date of the applicable consent period. Consent notices are to be sent by e-mail to [email protected] and posted to the Issuer Agent Portal (IAP) at https://www.dtcc.com/settlement-and-asset-services/issuer-services/issuer-agent-portal.
