Hi,

I have a scenario where transfer of shares has taken between two shareholders.

If shareholder A has transferred all shares to shareholder B,  
does shareholder B need to be included in the list of shareholders and show a 0 shares held?

And does both shareholders need to have the `<Transfers>` tags?

```auto
<Shareholdings>
<ShareClass>ORDINARY</ShareClass>
<NumberHeld>0</NumberHeld>
<Transfers>
<DateOfTransfer>2025-06-01</DateOfTransfer>
<NumberSharesTransferred>10</NumberSharesTransferred>
<Shareholders>
<Name>
<Surname>SHAREHOLDER</Surname>
<Forename>A</Forename>
</Name>
</Shareholders>
</Shareholdings>
<Shareholdings>
<ShareClass>ORDINARY</ShareClass>
<NumberHeld>10</NumberHeld>
<Transfers>
<DateOfTransfer>2025-06-01</DateOfTransfer>
<NumberSharesTransferred>10</NumberSharesTransferred>
</Transfers>
<Shareholders>
<Name>
<Surname>SHAREHOLDER</Surname>
<Forename>B</Forename>
</Name>
</Shareholders>
</Shareholdings>

```

Thank you in Advance.

Hi,

Any use of CS01 for shareholders must be advised as part of a full list at that date. So the list will just show the details of each shareholder at that date with the amount / class of each share they own.
