Broadridge Financial Solutions announced on December 16 2025 that its multi‑asset portfolio and trade order management platform now includes fully integrated general ledger capabilities and a redesigned user interface. The update embeds period accounting and financial statement reporting directly into the investment platform, allowing fund‑level general ledger entries, period adjustments, and out‑of‑the‑box financial statements. The new UI consolidates portfolio management, risk management, analytics, and reporting into a single workspace, reducing the need for multiple screens and accelerating decision‑making.
The enhancement is a key component of Broadridge’s broader transformation strategy, which seeks to convert its legacy proxy and communication business into a comprehensive, end‑to‑end technology platform. By adding general ledger functionality, Broadridge deepens client integration and creates a more compelling value proposition for alternative investment managers, hedge funds, and asset owners. The company’s management has emphasized that the platform upgrade is intended to streamline month‑end close, improve fiduciary controls, and support higher‑margin recurring revenue streams.
Broadridge’s recurring revenue grew 9% year‑over‑year in Q2 FY25 and 7% in Q3 FY25, underscoring the company’s focus on scalable, subscription‑based services. The new general ledger feature is expected to accelerate the adoption of Broadridge’s Global Technology and Operations (GTO) segment, which has been a primary driver of the firm’s higher‑margin growth. Frank Cataudo, General Manager of Investment Management Solutions, said the platform “is investing meaningfully in the evolution of our platform to help clients meet these challenges head‑on,” highlighting the company’s commitment to innovation and client support.
The update also aligns with Broadridge’s AI integration efforts, which have contributed to a 6% year‑over‑year increase in Q4 FY25 revenue driven by AI‑enabled wealth‑management services and securities‑lending automation. The addition of general ledger capabilities is expected to open new cross‑sell opportunities within the GTO segment and reinforce Broadridge’s positioning as the default infrastructure for the evolving alternative investment market.
The announcement does not disclose pricing, client rollout timelines, or quantifiable impact metrics, but the strategic intent and financial context suggest that the platform upgrade will strengthen Broadridge’s competitive moat and support its long‑term growth trajectory.
