by June 9, 2021

Broadridge Financial Solutions, a US-based technology solutions provider, has partnered with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to extend its Private Market Hub platform.

The platform utilises distributed ledger technology (DLT) to better streamline and connect the private equity ecosystem and assets.

The updated platform now has added connectivity to existing industry tools and technologies to help further automate workflows between front-, middle- and back-office functions providing a consistent, secure, real-time view of the data.

According to a statement by Broadridge, this is said to be the industry’s first deployment of blockchain technology for the private equity market.

Bringing together private equity ecosystem participants, Private Market Hub not only reduces friction for fund managers, investors and administrators, but also allows for easier auditability.

The hub allows for independent auditor access, and adding connectivity to existing industry tools and technologies via its’s open API architecture.
