  • 24. What will happen on 30th of April 2023 if my assets are still not able to be sold or transferred to another broker due to them being illiquid. Will they just be written off?

Please be assured that ITI will not simply write off assets that have the potential to trade in the future. We encourage all clients, however, to ascertain whether they have a broker who will accept these assets as part of their transfer process as this is the preferable approach for exiting these assets.

    We will update those clients affected on this matter in due course.
