As Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company celebrates its 60th-year anniversary since its establishment in 1964, we reflect on a journey marked by unwavering commitment to excellence in stock transfer and shareholder services. Throughout these six decades, our success has been driven not only by our dedication to our clients and their shareholders but also by the collective passion and expertise of our exceptional team of employees. Our incredible professionals have been instrumental in shaping our company’s legacy of expertise and reliability. We are also thrilled to announce the launch of our redesigned website, marking this milestone with enhanced accessibility and functionality for our valued clients.

“Continental was conceived and started by my father in 1964 as a fledgling independent stock transfer agent surrounded by scores of large bank transfer agents. His concept at the time was that the banks had been providing shoddy service in an ancillary business and charging exorbitant prices because there was no competition. Since starting with a handful of employees 60 years ago, Continental has grown to become the third largest agent in the United States and the oldest continually owned independent agent. The model has been consistent and unwavering: to provide expert, tailored services to small and midsize issuers at rates consistently lower than our large competitors. We have spent the last 60 years building relationships not only with our 1,500+ customers, but also with law firms, underwriters, banks and brokerage firms with whom we have partnered on thousands of important and complex transactions. To these partners, we are eternally grateful for their support and expertise. We are equally grateful to our managers and employees, those still with us and those on whose shoulders we stand, because of their immense contributions. We at Continental look forward with excitement to the years to come, knowing our future rests squarely on a foundation built on dedication, perseverance and excellence.”
–Steven G. Nelson, President & Chairman

We cherish our devoted employees, ranging from those who’ve journeyed with us for over three decades to the newest recent additions.
