Broadridge Financial Solutions is a technology company powering investing, governance, and investor communications worldwide. It is headquartered in Lake Success and supports over 15,000 associates worldwide. The firm processes about $15 trillion in trades daily and tracks $100 trillion in assets.

History of Broadridge

Broadridge's origins started when ADP's Brokerage Services Group entered securities processing in 1962. It grew through the 1970s and 1980s, expanding into Canada and building a strong communications business. By the late 1990s, it handled most US proxy work and supported multi-currency trading and settlement.

Becoming Broadridge and going public

In 2007, ADP spun off the business as Broadridge Financial Solutions, listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) as BR. Broadridge broadened its services into:

  • print
  • tax
  • outsourcing
  • mutual fund
  • retirement solutions

It also linked clients to major European and Asian markets for global securities processing.

Scaling data and digital leadership

During the 2010s, Broadridge added data management, reconciliation, transfer agency, and enhanced digital investor communications. It invested in blockchain-based proxy and repo tools and entered the S&P 500 Index in 2018.

Recent advances in wealth technology

In 2025, Broadridge Financial Solutions made a minority investment in Uptiq and integrated its AI tools into the Wealth Lending Network. The move helps advisors and banks automate securities-based lending, compare loan options, and improve client outcomes.

In that same year, InvestmentNews named Broadridge among the best technology and software for investment professionals. That recognition highlighted Broadridge's role in delivering time-saving platforms for modern wealth and investment management.
