\n Broadridge’s unified governance platform enables xStocks holders to submit voting preferences for shares underpinning their tokenized equities, closing one of the clearest gaps between tokenized equities and traditional stock ownership<\/i>\n <\/p>\n

\n NEW YORK<\/span>, Aug. 5, 2026<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ —\u00a0Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc.<\/a>, (NYSE: BR), a global Fintech<\/span> leader, today announced Broadridge’s unified governance platform will support shareholder communications and proxy voting for eligible holders of\u00a0xStocks, the industry-leading tokenized equities framework developed by Payward Services<\/a>, the B2B infrastructure platform from\u00a0Payward.<\/p>\n

“The endgame for tokenization<\/span> was never just building faster programmable capital markets. It’s about giving people across the world everything that comes with owning a piece of a company, including a voice in how it’s run,” said Mark Greenberg, Payward’s Chief Commercial Officer and Global Head of Payward Services. “Working with Broadridge is a step in that direction, unlocking opportunities for xStocks holders to participate in corporate governance, while closing the gap between tokenized equities and traditional shares.”<\/p>\n

“As tokenized securities continue to reshape global capital markets, investors should not have to choose between blockchain innovation and shareholder rights,” said Doug\u00a0DeSchutter,\u00a0President of Broadridge’s Investor Communication Solutions business. “By extending our\u00a0governance platform to support xStocks, we are enabling eligible token<\/span> holders to have a voice\u00a0in corporate governance and extending our leadership in\u00a0digital asset<\/span> governance.”<\/p>\n

Payward Services continues to accelerate its tokenized assets offering at pace, with more than\u00a0500 tokenized assets now available across tokenized equities, ETFs and pre-IPO offerings, and\u00a0with tokenized equities from several international markets slated to follow soon. xStocks is the most widely traded tokenized equities framework in the market by total transaction volume, and now represents the widest range of assets offered by any tokenized equities framework.<\/p>\n

Eligible holders of supported tokenized securities available through Payward Services’ xStocks tokenized asset framework will securely authenticate to ProxyVote.com using Web3\u00a0authentication, review proxy materials for the underlying securities, and submit their proxy\u00a0voting preferences through a seamless digital experience. The experience brings established\u00a0trusted governance capabilities investors expect from traditional capital markets into blockchain-native ecosystems while preserving the accessibility and efficiency of tokenized assets.<\/p>\n
