What s the rush to claim the assets if they ve remained dormant all this time?
We think you d prefer to have the assets now, rather than risk losing them to the Government under abandoned property laws, which are being more strictly enforced these days. Also, fluctuating economic conditions could have an adverse effect on the assets you re presently entitled to claim. Additionally, in some cases dormant funds do not earn interest until the account is reactivated. Finally, some assets may be bar-dated. In those situations, claims have to be presented before the bar date or else the assets become forfeited and lost forever.
