Yes. Many of you have already started investing on behalf of your children through your own Hatch accounts. So when you're ready to transfer shares, then:
Make sure you have opened an account for every child you want to transfer shares to (get step by step instructions)
Email us at hello@hatchinvest.nz to let us know
We’ll send you a form to complete (you’ll be able to fill out the number of shares to transfer to each child, and will be able to split up your holdings)
On an agreed date, we'll complete all the transfers at once and your Kids Account will have a nice head start!
Transferring to children who are over 18 years old
If your child is over 18, we can’t transfer shares from your account to theirs. This isn’t us being difficult, we operate under very strict money laundering laws which forbid us from transferring shares from one adult to another. However there are always exceptional circumstances, and we try to accommodate these when we can. Contact us at hello@hatchinvest.nz - and keep your fingers crossed.
