    I have shares with CommSec share trading account. Can I move them over to a different bank/share trading account? If so, which are the more ethical banks that have share trading accounts?

      Hello Jo,

      Thank you for your comment.

      Yes, you can transfer your shares from Commsec to a different platform. You can do this through an off-market or online transfer. According to our on transferring shares into another trading platform, you need to complete a Clearing House Electronic Subregister System (CHESS) sponsorship form that will allow you to transfer your existing holdings from a certain issuer or broker to another sponsoring participant.

      Furthermore, see our list of share trading platforms to compare your options. Please read through the guide and after comparing, please click the Go to Site button.

      Hello Jess,

      Thanks for your question.

      Although we cover a wide range of products, providers and services we don’t cover every product, provider or service available in the market so there may be other options available to you.
