Why is it necessary for the Board to approve new shareholders?

Modified on Thu, 12 Feb at 9:26 PM

This requirement is primarily for regulatory and compliance purposes: 

  • It forms part of standard Know Your Customer (“KYC”) procedures, ensuring that the Company understands who its shareholders are and can provide ultimate beneficial ownership information when required by regulators; and 
  • It will not apply to shareholders for whom satisfactory KYC information has already been obtained and verified.
