Encino unclaimed business money
Updated
The California State Controller holds about $3.1 million for 118 business-type owners with Encino addresses whose open records total $10,000 or more each. Encino is a Los Angeles neighborhood with its own mailing name, so it is counted separately from the "Los Angeles" addresses.
What the money is
The largest kinds of property held for Encino business-type owners:
| Property type | Amount | What it usually is |
|---|---|---|
| Wages and payroll | $421k | wages, payroll and salary checks |
| Savings accounts | $286k | savings account balances the bank could not return |
| Mutual fund shares | $259k | mutual fund shares |
| Checking accounts | $185k | balances left in checking accounts after the bank lost contact with the account holder |
| Accounts payable | $180k | payments a company owed a supplier (accounts payable) that never got through, where the supplier is the owner |
The typical Encino owner on this list is owed $15,866, below the statewide median of $18,087. 25% of the owners here are trusts or estates, which follow different claim rules from companies.
Claiming it
A Encino business claims from the Controller like any California business: an authorized person signs the Controller's claim form in wet ink, in front of a notary for $1,000 or more in cash or for any securities, and the package includes proof of authority, the FEIN and the address the holder reported. With 46% of local owners holding more than one record, it pays to search every name and address the business has used.
We do this for 10% of what the state pays, charged only after payment. Check your business or read how it works.
