BOCA RATON, FL, March 15, 2016 - Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:BR) and The Technancial Company Ltd. (TTC) today announced a strategic alliance to provide an enhanced post-trade offering for futures and options. The alliance will see the combination of Broadridge’s global post-trade processing solution with the strengths of TTC’s leading real-time JANUS™ Margin Engine. This collaboration will allow clients to leverage extended best-in-class capabilities for exchange traded derivatives processing, including client clearing, while enabling consolidation of their post-trade operations across assets.  

The alliance is a direct result of the financial services industry’s increasing imperative to renew systems and improve operational efficiencies.

Paul Clark, Head of Institutional Product Management, Global Technology and Operations International, Broadridge, said: “The collaboration between Broadridge and TTC offers our mutual clients the ability to benefit from a superior, highly efficient exchange traded derivatives capability with seamless process throughput. The solution is integrated with post-trade processing and operational control for other asset classes offered via Broadridge’s global post-trade processing platform.
