Existing Schemes
Primary Securities is often requested by scheme managers to replace existing trustees where the managers are wanting a trustee that can offer a full administration service.
Primary is also sought after by investor groups wanting a responsible entity of integrity to represent them. Primary is one of the most experienced responsible entities in Australia in taking over existing schemes and can facilitate any necessary change of responsible entity which may also involve preparation of meeting documents to enable a change of responsible entity.
