Propanc Stock Now DWAC/FAST Eligible
MELBOURNE, Australia, July 18, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Propanc Health Group Corporation (OTCQB:PPCH) ("Propanc" or "the Company"), an emerging healthcare company focused on the development of new and proprietary treatments for cancer patients, is pleased to announce that the Depository Trust Corporation (the "DTC") has approved its common stock for DWAC/FAST transfer through the Company's Transfer Agent, V Stock, LLC. This newly approved stock transfer capability will enable Propanc's shareholders to transfer their shares of Propanc stock electronically after buying or selling on the open market, without the extra expense and delay associated with the processing and transfer of physical share certificates.
In addition to expediting markedly the transactional process, literally from weeks to hours, DWAC/FAST approval also serves to eliminate the risks associated with the loss and replacement of physical share certificates. Another side benefit is that companies approved for DWAC/FAST electronic transfers often experience higher trading volumes in their stock given the additional accessibility and availability of shares for trading.
"We are pleased to share this important step with our shareholders," said James Nathanielsz, Propanc's Chief Executive Officer. "Not only does becoming DWAC/FAST eligible provide our existing shareholders with new efficiencies, both in cost and time savings, it should also aid in facilitating more trading in the open market, thereby enabling us to continue expanding our shareholder base," he added.
About DWAC/FAST
DWAC allows participants to instruct DTC regarding deposit and withdrawal transactions being made directly via a FAST transfer agent. The FAST system eliminates the movement of physical share certificates for transfers of securities registered in the name of DTC's nominee, Cede & Co., on the transfer agent's books. DTC and its FAST transfer agents reconcile the results of participants' deposit and withdrawal activities electronically on a daily basis.
