Broadridge Expands Tokenized Repo Platform to G7 Securities

Asset tokenization is moving from proof of concept to institutional-grade trading, with progress hinging on the integration of blockchain settlement, custody and corporate governance into existing financial workflows. Broadridge Financial Solutions supports more than $15 trillion in securities transactions each day, while its Distributed Ledger Repo platform tokenizes more than $365 billion daily. Its hiring strategy could therefore influence the pace at which traditional markets move on-chain.

Broadridge announced on June 23, 2026, that it had hired former Ernst & Young US LLP partner Mark Nichols as co-president of digital assets. He will lead the business alongside German Soto Sanchez, overseeing tokenization strategy, product development and execution. The company did not disclose his compensation. Its DLR platform tokenizes more than $365 billion daily.

Broadridge is a fintech company that provides trading, clearing and investor services to financial institutions. Its expanded tokenized securities infrastructure covers equities, funds and money-market instruments, reflecting Wall Street’s accelerating adoption of blockchain to improve asset liquidity, trading efficiency and settlement speed.

As of July 20, 2026, reports had not disclosed the exact date of the announcement. Broadridge said the system connects to public and private blockchain networks, including Ethereum. Its distributed-ledger repo platform currently processes more than $365 billion in tokenized assets each day, showing that institutional adoption has reached significant scale.

Canadian wealth managers seeking to add cryptocurrencies and tokenized stocks, funds and alternative investments to client portfolios have often needed to build separate trading, custody and compliance systems, creating operational silos. Fintech provider Broadridge has integrated digital assets into existing wealth-management workflows, allowing advisers and self-directed investment services to manage traditional and digital assets in the same environment.

Broadridge announced the platform's launch in New York and Toronto on April 13, 2026. It integrates trading, asset servicing, disclosures, governance, proxy voting and institutional-grade custody. Galaxy Digital provides wallet capabilities, while Anchorage Digital and Tetra are part of a multi-custodian framework. Broadridge also said it processes more than $8 trillion in tokenized assets each month.
