Alpaca and Broadridge Integrate Governance for Tokenized Equities

The collaboration integrates Broadridge’s governance platform into Alpaca’s Instant Tokenization Network. As assets move across various blockchain networks, reconciling shareholder records and voting entitlements has become a significant technical hurdle. By combining their systems, the companies intend to provide a unified operational view for brokers, custodians, and corporate issuers, ensuring that beneficial and registered holders of tokenized shares can exercise their rights just as they would with conventional stocks.

Institutional investors will gain the ability to embed voting processes for digital assets directly into existing governance workflows. Meanwhile, retail investors will access meeting materials through the ProxyVote platform. The initiative addresses the complexity of maintaining accurate records across fragmented digital ecosystems, leveraging Broadridge’s established infrastructure, which already processes communications for over 200 million accounts globally. Alpaca continues to manage the underlying brokerage services, including custody and clearing, while Broadridge adds the necessary oversight to meet U.S. regulatory standards for auditability and accountability.
