Broadridge's Blockchain Repo Engine Cleared $8 Trillion in July as Tokenized Finance Scales

Broadridge repo platform processed $8 trillion in July

Broadridge Financial Solutions, a New York-listed fintech company, said its Distributed Ledger Repo (DLR) platform processed $8.0 trillion in repurchase agreement transactions during July 2026. Daily volume averaged $365 billion across the month. Broadridge announced the figures on 10 August 2026. The company trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker BR. It provides post-trade processing, settlement, and digital asset services to banks, brokers, and asset managers, and runs DLR as part of that infrastructure.

Daily volume rose 28 percent from a year earlier

The $365 billion daily average marked a 28% increase compared with the same month a year earlier. The figure topped the platform's June average of $357 billion, setting a monthly high for daily volume. A repurchase agreement, or repo, is a short-term loan secured by collateral such as government bonds. Banks and asset managers use the repo market to raise cash and finance positions, and it ranks among the largest short-term funding markets in the world.

Monthly volume built on a year of rapid growth

The July total extended a year of expansion for DLR. In March 2026, the platform processed close to $8 trillion at a $354 billion daily average, a 392% jump from a year earlier. June volume reached $7.5 trillion, or $357 billion a day. Year-over-year growth has narrowed as the comparison base has grown, while absolute daily volume has kept climbing through 2026.

Platform settles repo trades on distributed ledger technology

DLR lets institutions settle repo transactions on distributed ledger technology while operating within their existing trading and post-trade systems. The platform supports real-time financing and the movement of tokenized collateral across counterparties. Broadridge describes it as the largest institutional venue for settling tokenized real-world assets. The company reports tokenizing about $365 billion in assets each day through the system.

"Tokenization is increasingly becoming part of how institutions optimize liquidity and collateral management. As adoption broadens, firms are gaining greater confidence in bringing tokenized workflows into day-to-day market operations.", 10 August 2026. — Horacio Barakat, Global Head of Digital Innovation, Broadridge

Tokenized funding markets draw institutional interest

Broadridge tied the growth to wider adoption of tokenized collateral and funding tools. Stablecoins, a related part of tokenized finance, remain sizable: USDC traded at $1.00 with a $72.1 billion market cap at the time of publication (CoinPaprika, 11 August 2026). The DLR figures point to steady institutional use of blockchain rails for short-term financing.

DLR anchors Broadridge's broader tokenization plans

Broadridge said DLR remains a core part of its wider tokenization strategy. The company plans to expand digital asset work across post-trade infrastructure, on-chain proxy voting, and governance systems. It also aims to scale digital asset capabilities across more asset classes. Broadridge says the goal is to link traditional financial institutions with digital markets through the platform.
