Q. What does Issuer Sponsored mean?
A. An Issuer Sponsored holding is maintained by the issuer of your shares. All details relating to your holding are maintained by the issuer at the share registry. Your Issuer Sponsored holding can be identified by an 'I' at the start of your Shareholder Reference Number (SRN) which is printed on your holding statement.

When your shares are Issuer Sponsored, you are free to trade them through any broker without the need to move them around. You give your nominated broker permission to access your holding when you buy or sell.

Q. What does Broker Sponsored mean?
A. If your shares are Broker Sponsored, you will have a Holder Identification Number (HIN) allocated to your holding rather than a Shareholder Reference Number (SRN). Your Broker Sponsored holding can be identified by an 'X' at the start of your HIN which is printed on your holding Statement.

Q. I want to be removed from the annual report mailing list.

Q. I've noticed in the financial press quotes for equities which include ANZ in part of the code. If they are not ordinary shares, what are they?
A. On the Australian Securities Exchange ANZ's code is 'ANZ'. Other listings that include ANZ as part of the code are likely to be derivatives of ANZ shares, for example warrants or options. These derivatives are not issued by ANZ and if you would like further information about buying and selling ANZ derivatives, your stockbroker will be able to advise you.

Q. Where can I get more information about buying and selling shares?
A. Apart from your stockbroker, you may like to visit the Australian Securities Exchange site. This site provides a wealth of information as well as a broker referral service.

Q. Why was the Shareholder Privilege Package discontinued?
A. The package is costly to maintain, with only a small number of eligible ANZ shareholders using the package. Our research demonstrated that most shareholders no longer consider the benefits offered to be relevant to their particular financial needs. Providing superior financial performance through capital and dividend growth is the best way for us to reward shareholders for their investment in ANZ.
