Understanding & Using the Medallion Signature Guarantee

Through a Medallion Signature Guarantee, your financial institution certifies that the signature authorizing the transfer of a security is authentic. This safeguard helps protect shareholders by reducing the risk of fraudulent or forged signatures. If ANY of these warranties are breached, the financial institution becomes liable for the FULL VALUE of the security transferred.
