Spotlight on Shareholder Records

The shareholder records team plays a major role in NANA ’ s mission . They are the go-to department for shareholders who want to enroll in shares , update their information or ask questions .

Shareholder distributions are a major part of the shareholder records team ’ s work . In FY2021 , the team facilitated five distributions to shareholders . The distributions included two dividends , a 7 ( j ) payment for at-large shareholders , CARES Act funds and a NANA Elders ’ Settlement Trust payment to shareholders over 65 .
Distributing the CARES Act funds took detailed coordination between the entire NANA team . Two temporary employees were hired to assist with the influx of phone calls and applications during that time . The team
managed the applications for those funds in addition to their day-to-day records tasks .
“ Our records staff have been key this past couple of very challenging years ,” said Sandy Salaktuna Kowalski , VP of shareholder relations . “ The department has improved processes over the years so they can manage distributions smoothly .”
The shareholder records department regularly update records , including name and address changes . They also provide medical and burial assistance for original shareholders .
The easiest way to make basic changes to your information is by logging on to the portal , nanatkut . com . You can also contact shareholder records at records @ nana . com or by calling ( 907 ) 442-3301 .
