The selection is part of a multi-year technology transformation at the wealth management firm and is the latest in a series of investments in tools and services.

In the US, RBC Wealth Management operates as a division of RBC Capital Markets. It has $500 billion in total client assets with more than 2,000 financial advisors operating in 180 locations across 42 states.

The Broadridge platform uses an open architecture and is powered by APIs and microservices that facilitate connectivity to a client’s proprietary and third-party applications. It includes a modernised advisor desktop and customisable tool set. Key advisory features include performance reporting, managed accounts support and sleeve accounting, multi-market order management and trade routing, and full back-office functionality that handles multi-currency, global clearance and settlement, asset servicing, and integrated workflow across the enterprise to accelerate client onboarding and other functions.
