Insights

This integration marks a significant advancement in wealth management technology. By combining Broadridge's SBL capabilities with Morningstar's Advisor Workstation, it creates a powerful synergy that could reshape how independent advisors operate. The integration addresses a crucial gap in the market, enabling advisors to offer more comprehensive services without switching platforms.

From a business perspective, this move could potentially increase Broadridge's market share in the wealth management technology sector. It also positions Morningstar to better compete with full-service financial institutions. For investors, this could translate to enhanced revenue streams for both companies, as they tap into the growing demand for integrated wealth management solutions.

However, the success of this integration will largely depend on advisor adoption rates and the ease of use of the combined platform. It's also worth noting that while this expansion of services is promising, it comes with increased responsibility for advisors in managing client debt, which could pose both opportunities and risks.

This integration is a game-changer for independent advisors. By providing seamless access to SBL tools, it allows them to compete more effectively with larger, full-service firms. The ability to offer lending solutions alongside investment advice enables a more holistic approach to wealth management, which is increasingly demanded by high-net-worth clients.

The potential to retain AUM when clients need liquidity is particularly significant. Traditionally, advisors might lose assets under management when clients liquidate investments for cash needs. Now, they can offer an alternative that keeps the portfolio intact while meeting client liquidity requirements. This could lead to improved client retention and potentially higher revenues for advisory firms.

However, advisors must be cautious. Integrating lending into their services requires additional expertise and careful management of conflicts of interest. There's also a risk of over-leveraging clients if not managed properly. Advisors will need to ensure they have the necessary training and compliance measures in place to navigate these new waters effectively.

The collaboration enables independent advisors to deliver holistic advisory services across the full balance sheet with integrated SBL capabilities to see the borrowing power for portfolios.

NEW YORK, Sept. 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Global fintech leader Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:BR) announces the securities-based lending (SBL) tools in its Wealth Lending Network (WLN) marketplace are now integrated in Morningstar Advisor Workstation. Extending beyond Workstation's core research, investment planning, and portfolio analysis capabilities, independent advisors now have seamless access to lending solutions that help them support broader client financial goals.

The integration offers financial advisors the ability to determine their clients' SBL borrowing potential and connect with WLN partner banks to support their clients' lending needs. Advisor Workstation's U.S. footprint of more than 150,000 advisors will now be offered the opportunity to seamlessly connect to SBL services from Broadridge through their single sign on, as well as to access Broadridge's advanced predictive prospecting, sales and educational capabilities via the Wealth Lending Network platform.

"Today's advisors recognize the importance of offering expanded services to add value for their clients. As highlighted in Morningstar's 2024 Voice of the Advisor Survey, advisors who offered a broader range of services were more confident in their ability to support their client with meaningful financial plans" said Vimal Vel, chief product officer for Enterprise Solutions at Morningstar. "Our collaboration with Broadridge equips advisors with a tool for advanced lending options, enabling them to provide a more comprehensive suite of services and elevate the industry standard for the value advisors offer clients."

"Our mission at Broadridge is to provide trusted expertise and transformative technology to help clients and the financial services industry operate, innovate, and grow," said Mike Alexander, President of Broadridge Wealth Management. "This collaboration helps advisors respond to the growing demand for flexible, simplified, and integrated financial solutions, including borrowing against their securities portfolio, allowing them to better align with their clients' evolving goals, and provide expanded service offerings that strengthen their client relationships."

The WLN enables wealth managers of all sizes to offer SBL services to their clients using Broadridge's end-to-end, fully digitized SBL technology platform. It extends current lending models, enabling financial institutions to offer SBL to clients on a turnkey basis. Serving RIAs, independent broker-dealers, non-bank affiliated broker dealers, and wealth management firms, the WLN will allow advisors using the Morningstar Advisor Workstation to retain AUM when client liquidity needs arise, reduce competitive risk from wire houses and banks, and offer holistic advice to their clients.

Clients of financial advisors using WLN and Morningstar Advisor Workstation are expected to directly benefit from having an alternative to liquidating investment portfolios. This can help them to preserve their investment strategy, avoid triggering potential capital gains taxes associated with selling investments, and enjoy the convenience of a single provider for both assets and liabilities.
