In an effort to expand its core front-to-back office wealth capabilities, Broadridge Financial Solutions acquired Rockall, a provider of securities-based lending and collateral management solutions for wealth management firms and commercial banks, the firm announced this week. Broadridge now will be able to provide this technology to help its clients manage risk as well as "optimize" their securities lending and financing needs.
Two "key" elements Rockall brings to Broadridge clients are its cloud-based wealth lending solution, Fastnet, which automates the evaluation, monitoring and management of securities-based lending, and its enterprise banking collateral management solution, Collate, that allows for enhanced credit risk management, regulatory reporting, process simplification and capital efficiency.
