Do I need to be on Broadridge’s back-office clearance and settlement platform to take advantage of the Ascendis solution?
No. Ascendis is built on a common Business Process Management (BPM) platform which is designed and available for implementation on any back-office clearance and settlement platform. It may also be integrated with Broadridge’s globally trusted Brokerage Processing Services (BPS) back-office platform. Ascendis is modeled on reliable, standards-based Microsoft technologies to deliver the same failsafe foundation that global companies can use to run mission-critical applications. The underlying open application programming interfaces (API’s) and .NET platform ease integration between Ascendis applications and third-party brokerage processing systems, Broadridge’s industry-leading back-office BPS platform, or the client’s own internal IT solutions.
