Computershare Outsourcing Ltd was approved as the first Custody Service Provider of the JSE Ltd in January 2001 and provides back office services to a growing number of stockbrokers.

Computershare Outsourcing is independent, without links to stockbrokers or banks (other than those who are clients) and acts only as agent in conducting the back office functions for stockbrokers.

We complement the business of our clients by:

> meeting their capital adequacy custody requirements;

> providing the controls required by the Directives of the JSE;

> enabling the stockbroker to substitute a fixed overhead with a variable per settlement charge;

> offering other outsourcing opportunities to allow them to further streamline their businesses.


Originally aimed at smaller brokers who do not have the staffing resource, outsourcing of the back office is now an attractive alternative for larger brokers. Outsourcing is far more cost effective than maintaining a large, expensive back office.

For those JSE members who have selected Computershare as their CSD (Central Securities Depository) Participant and Computershare Outsourcing as their Custody Services Provider, we are confident that we are able to offer a superior, competitive and cost-effective custody and settlement function.

Computershare Outsourcing Ltd is an approved Custody Services Provider regulated by the JSE Ltd
