N.Y. Estates, Powers & Trusts Law § 13-4.2: Registration in beneficiary form; sole or joint tenancy

§ 13-4.2 Registration in beneficiary form; sole or joint tenancy

ownership

Only individuals whose registration of a security shows sole ownership

by one individual or multiple ownership by two or more with right of

survivorship, rather than as tenants in common, may obtain registration

in beneficiary form. Multiple owners of a security registered in

beneficiary form hold as joint tenants with right of survivorship, as

tenants by the entireties or as owners of community property held in

survivorship form, and not as tenants in common.
