Broadridge Financial Solutions has launched a digital-asset platform for Canadian wealth managers that lets firms offer cryptocurrencies and tokenized assets alongside traditional investments. The platform unifies trading, custody and asset servicing so digital and traditional assets can be managed within existing workflows rather than separate systems, and it supports both advisor-led and self-directed client models with connectivity to custodians and exchanges.
The offering provides access to cryptocurrencies and tokenized assets including equities, funds and alternative investments, with integrated wallets, institutional custody options and links to exchanges and asset managers. It also includes disclosure and governance tools to help support regulatory compliance across digital-asset activities.
Broadridge said the platform addresses integration challenges wealth managers face when adding digital assets. Partnerships include Galaxy Digital for wallet infrastructure and a multi-custody model involving Anchorage Digital, with interoperability across additional custodians. Broadridge’s systems already support the tokenization of more than $8 trillion in assets per month.
The launch follows broader industry moves to integrate crypto into institutional portfolios. SoFi Technologies recently introduced a business banking platform to manage fiat and crypto transactions in a single regulated system and to support its SoFiUSD stablecoin with integrations like BitGo, Fireblocks and Mastercard and planned blockchain connectivity such as Solana. Binance has rolled out a concierge service for institutional investors offering onboarding, structured products, credit lines, custody and portfolio analytics. Other institutional-focused platforms include Kraken and Coinbase, while traditional firms such as Morgan Stanley and Fidelity have expanded crypto custody and trading through dedicated units like Fidelity Digital Assets.
A McKinsey report, “US wealth management in 2035: A transformative decade begins,” forecasts portfolios will increasingly include digital and tokenized assets and that platforms will evolve to support a broader range of asset classes.
