Transferring shares to my daughter
Posted: January 4th, 2017, 5:48 am
Hi everyone
When my daughter was born she was given some money by various people which I used to buy some shares in Vodafone. The shares were bought in my name. My daughter is 18 now and I'd like the shares to be in her name. I'm not sure of the best way to achieve this, and I would be grateful of any advice. When VOD sold Verizon I opted to sell the Verizon shares and I simply gave her the money from that sales, which amounted to about £600. The current value of the VOD shares is about £860. The simplest way might be for me to sell them, give her the money to buy as many as she can in her own name.
Thanks for any advice offered
