As IBKR Australia uses BNP as our sub-custodian for holding ASX listed cash equities, we must submit our instructions earlier than the market deadlines (that are typically announced within the offer documents). If you are holding the shares at the record date, an email or message center notification will be sent to you or your broker / advisor to notify you of the IBKR Australia submission deadline, which is typically at least 2 business days prior to the market deadline.
If you have missed the IBKR submission deadline but still wish to submit the request, please submit a ticket request under the Corporate Action category. Note that such requests are not guaranteed to be processed and are worked on best effort basis only. If we do submit your request, you will be charged a fee of AUD 100 for each request, regardless of the outcome of the corporate action. As with all corporate actions, the issuer has the sole discretion to accept, reduce or reject your request. For more information about the fees, please refer to this link here.
