What are uncertificated securities?
Good day to you, dear readers! In my new article, I will tell you about financial assets that do not have a paper implementation. The focus today will be uncertificated securities.
When trading these securities, the city where the seller and the buyer live is not important. Such objects can be transferred remotely. Now there are applications for anyone who wants to become a shareholder. It is enough to deposit a small amount of money there to buy the first non-documentary asset.
The use of uncertificated securities on the stock exchange helps companies grow faster. Their only drawback is intangibility. Therefore, some people treat them with prejudice. It is much easier for many people to own securities that can be read, felt, kept in a safe or a safe deposit box.
At the same time, paperless securities are currently very common, they are used for the benefit of the economy in all developed countries. There they are the main way to certify the rights to dividends. This method is convenient for the market, as it meets its modern needs — on the stock exchange, you can quickly transfer the right to own a security.

What it is?
The main feature of the Central Bank, which I am telling you about, is the absence of a material embodiment. All financial assets are subject to registration in registers. But making entries on non-documentary securities requires special responsibility. The following data is recorded: [bold]Compilation of registers is carried out by organizations with the appropriate license.[/bold] This ensures the reliability of operations and the impossibility of their illegal adjustment at the will of the issuer or copyright holder. The person who issued it or provided security must fulfill the obligations under the security. The right holder, which is indicated in the accounts for the relevant asset, can demand execution.

Execution
In some cases, claims are recognized by law as extinguished if they are fulfilled before a third party.
Transfer of law
Securities are transferred by order of the copyright holder.
The record keeper debits the valuable asset from the current account and credits it to the account of the new holder. Rights are transferred at the same time.
encumbrance
An encumbrance by a pledge or otherwise arises from the moment a corresponding entry is made to the account of the right holder by a person keeping records of the securities.
When a security is credited to an account that records encumbered securities, the encumbrance condition arises automatically.
