Security Holder Reference Number (SRN) or Holder Identification Number (HIN)

[Hammy]

Where can I find the Security Holder Reference Number (SRN) or Holder Identification Number (HIN)  for the shares I own in the IG platform?

Hi @Hammy

Thanks for reaching out.

The corporate actions team have advised me that if, on a form, you're asked for a HIN number instead but your IG account number. 

As IG operates a domestic custody model, HINs are not required. Your stock is identified by your account number.

IG # not recognized as a substitute for SRN or HIN.. Have emailed transfers@ig.com to find a resolution as IG phone helpline couldn't assist. I am surprised this issue hasn't come up before.
