Hi all
Another week, another email has been sent to the HM Treasury! **This time we're on WEEK EIGHT!\***
*^(\*)**^(I took a brief hiatus last week)* *^(but we're back at it with a brand new letter!)*
# And still no response back.
Makes you think whether the UK Government are less interested in engaging with shareholders than they are trying to take full ownership of our financial assets.

Might be time to change tack Week 8 - let's see what happens next.

I'm sharing this to make sure we don’t lose track of all the work we've done with this. As Dr. T reminds us here:
https://preview.redd.it/kq0mmwupw53c1.jpg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=587afa0352abc719d1548ec53af0f5bdebe32c55
**In case you're a little out of the loop - you can catch up here:**
TL;DR
* The UK are looking to digitize the way we hold shares.
* Four prospective models were proposed to do this
* 🚨 Out of the four suggestions offered, they are **advocating for the mandatory removal of UK shares** into a **Central Securities Depository (CSD), as managed by the state.** 🚨
* ⚠️ AKA - UK shareholder assets will be moved into a intermediary account, where the legal ownership of **YOUR ASSETS** will be handed over to a **STATE MANAGED NOMINEE.** ⚠️
* Under ["Recommendation 2", Pg. 23](https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/digitisation-taskforce) \- they state this "may require an amendment to primary legislation to address legal title transfer" = AKA they want to change the main laws (primary legislation) to **allow the legal the transfer of your ownership to the nominee, making you the BENEFICIARY.**
* This will massively impact your rights.
* They are trying to make it **LEGALLY MANDATORY** to transfer ownership of **YOUR shares to THEM.**
* There is a notable lack of clarity on which shares will be affected and the ambiguity opens shareholders to risk.
* ⚠️ They also wish to establish a "baseline service" level for intermediaries **offering "access"** to shareholder rights, despite this being a fundamental right as owed to all asset holders. ⚠️
* ⚠️ They have outlined intentions for **associated charges for shareholders** as part of an "opt-in" service to exercise rights *(pg. 24 & 18)* whereas Computershare's services remain free to use. **Shareholders will be exploited for increased government revenue should this be agreed.** ⚠️

As such, this post is dedicated to gently remind the **UK's** **HM Treasury** that as investors we expect to be very much included in any and **all conversations** in which affect our shares - especially when they aim to alter the very laws that govern our ownership rights, allowing for the legal transfer of our assets to a state-managed nominee.
AKA - making us the beneficial owners of our own assets.

*⚠️ 🌎* ***Remember:***
***The UK's Digitisation Proposal isn't just about the UK—it's a blueprint for global shareholder rights erosion - it threatens to seize legal ownership of OUR assets and jeopardises property rights everywhere.***

As such, this should not be a closed door discussion, this is a proposal that requires public scrutiny and open conversation - in which we can assure there is plenty of transparency and accountability, with shareholders best interests at the forefront of every decision as made by the HM Treasury.
We wholly expect to be included in the process of any of the ongoing conversations as had by the government - aka, these tax funded civil servants - and them prioritizing our needs above all else.
So we're going to put ourselves at the table, invited or otherwise.

**Subject: Urgent Appeal for Advocacy on Shareholder Rights and Digitization Proposal**
Dear \[Local MP's Name\],
I trust this message finds you well and fully engaged in your responsibilities representing our community.
**Please find the relevant reading for said proposal here:** [**https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/digitisation-taskforce**](https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/digitisation-taskforce)
The shift towards a Central Securities Depository (CSD) model, mandating the transfer of legal ownership to a nominee, is a major concern. This alteration could fundamentally change shareholder dynamics, making us beneficial owners rather than retaining crucial legal ownership.
Additionally, the opt-in requirement for services and associated charges raises questions about the overall impact on shareholder empowerment. The proposed model introduces a separation between legal and beneficial ownership, potentially limiting our ability to actively participate in decision-making.
The "opt-in" approach for intermediaries to provide a "baseline service" further raises concerns about alignment with shareholders' best interests. This contradicts the proposal's alleged objective of benefiting shareholders.
As a concerned taxpayer and shareholder, I urge your advocacy to ensure that proposed changes consider the rights and interests of individual investors. Specifically, shareholders advocate for preserving a direct registrar system, maintaining shares on the primary registrar under our legal names. This preserves a direct link between shareholders and their investments, upholding the integrity of ownership rights.
The importance of holding shares in our own legal names cannot be overstated; it is a cornerstone of shareholder autonomy and accountability. Your support in championing these critical aspects will contribute to a fair and equitable outcome for shareholders globally.
I kindly request your support in highlighting these concerns to relevant authorities, notably HM Treasury and Douglas Flint, the chairman of the Taskforce. This ensures that constituents' voices are heard in ongoing discussions about the digitization proposal, aligning with principles of fairness and equity in our democratic system.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. With your advocacy, we can work towards a solution that safeguards the interests of shareholders in our community.
Sincerely,
An Invested Shareholder

**TL;DR**
* The UK aims to digitize shareholding - outlined here: [https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/digitisation-taskforce](https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/digitisation-taskforce)
* Four proposed models were put forward, advocating for mandatory transfer to a state-managed nominee.
* Legal ownership may shift to the state nominee, impacting individual rights. Proposal suggests amending legislation for legal title transfer, potentially making shareholders beneficiaries.
* Massive impact on shareholder rights, potentially limiting control over assets.
* We're sending letters to the HM Treasury because we want to be involved in the decision making - as it affects OUR shares - but no response just yet.
