Shares represent ownership in a company, and transferring them is how ownership changes hands — whether to admit an investor, settle a buy-out, bring in a family member, or restructure the cap table. In a private company, transfers are usually subject to restrictions written into the Articles.
A valid transfer needs a properly executed share transfer deed in Form SH-4, payment of stamp duty, board approval, and an update to the register of members. Missing any step can leave the transfer legally incomplete. KNAP Advisory takes care of each one so the new shareholding holds up.
