Beneficially owned shares means the shareholder will hold the shares in their own right. If the shares are not beneficially owned, the shareholder will be holding the shares on behalf of someone else or a trust.
Shares held by a Trust
A trust is not a legal entity. For a trust to hold shares, you would need to specify the name of the trustee of the trust and the address. ASIC are not notified or concerned with who the trust beneficiaries are. There is a provision on the order form for you to specify if the shares are not beneficially owned.
