Would this also cover the share certificates of a non-Canadian e.g. Swiss whose ECU shares have been bought and held in custody in Canada?
I received the following statement from my broker Swissquote not sure whether I should still ask for obtaining the share certificates:
Dear Sir, We inform you herewith, that your positions are already in the Book Enties status on the nominees name.
Further to this please take note the following statement:
The depositor's position in relation to deposited securities is even more reassuring - Art. 37d Banking Act states that such securities do not fall within the scope of the bankruptcy and the customer has the right to recover them whenever he or she wishes."
Yours faithfully, Swissquote
