Broadridge has expanded its tokenisation capabilities to allow institutional firms to operate across both tokenised and traditional securities within a single integrated infrastructure.
The update builds on Broadridge’s Digital Ledger Repo platform and extends its existing multi-asset infrastructure across order, execution and post-trade workflows.
The firm processes more than $15 trillion in assets daily across its systems, which are used to support institutional trading at scale.
As interest in tokenised securities grows, Broadridge said core market requirements remain unchanged, including standardised protocols for issuance, transfer, settlement and servicing, alongside interoperability across venues and counterparties.
To support this, the firm has extended the tokenisation engine underpinning its Distributed Ledger Repo solution to cover additional asset classes, including equities, funds, alternative assets and money market instruments.
Frank Troise, president of Broadridge’s global capital markets business, said: “Broadridge is already a leader in tokenisation with our Distributed Ledger Repo solution platform, which tokenises more than $365 billion every day. Now, we’re delivering a suite of capabilities that support the trading of tokenised securities across our infrastructure with the established systems, controls, and workflows institutional investors rely on every day.
“Bringing together digital innovation with proven trading, connectivity, and post-trade infrastructure will enable our clients to unlock liquidity and reduce friction across their operations while maintaining the scale, operational resilience, and regulatory compliance required in global capital markets.”
The aim is to allow institutions to operate across tokenised assets using a consistent framework for governance and processing.
In post-trade, Broadridge’s infrastructure now supports both traditional and tokenised instruments within the same processing environment, allowing firms to manage settlement, reconciliation and reporting through shared workflows and controls.
Earlier this May, Broadridge expanded its proxy voting and disclosure capabilities to support all models of tokenised securities, extending governance infrastructure across both traditional and blockchain-based markets.
