Foster Stockbroking’s services are:

1. Dealing and Advisory
Foster Stockbroking has an experienced team of Professional Advisers to provide investment advice and equity dealing services. Our advisers have continuous real-time access to the latest news and information on companies, and we have the capacity to analyse situations and react quickly to announcements, which is an important requirement in a fast moving, dynamic market.

2. Corporate services
FSB has considerable experience and history in raising capital and providing advisory services which focus on:

i. Equity capital raisings via IPO's, Share Placements and Rights Issues;
ii. Pre-IPO Capital raisings for companies planning to list on the ASX; and
iii. General corporate and equity markets advice.

3. Research
Foster Stockbroking produces an institutional grade research product that adds an important dimension to its dealing and advisory capabilities. We particularly focus on companies in the small to mid- capitalisation sectors and we research a broad range of companies across a variety of sectors and industry groups.

Our research strategy is outlined in the “Research framework” and recent reports can be found under “Research Reports”.

4. Settlement and Clearing of Transactions
Berndale Securities Ltd, our Third Party Clearer, undertakes all our settlement and clearing obligations. Berndale Securities is a wholly owned subsidiary of Merrill Lynch Australia and is a controlling participant of CHESS.

Usually settlements proceed smoothly and efficiently but inevitably there will sometimes be questions about your shareholding or you may have a settlement enquiry.

Our capable settlements administration team is available to resolve any settlement and clearing queries that may arise and they also liaise with Berndale to investigate any issues.
