Broadridge's Distributed Ledger Repo Processes $7.2 Trillion In May, Up 220% Year On Year

Broadridge Financial Solutions has reported that its Distributed Ledger Repo (DLR) platform processed $7.2 trillion in repo transactions during May 2026, with average daily volumes (ADV) reaching $362 billion. The figure represents a 220% year-over-year increase, marking a significant milestone in the institutional adoption of tokenised settlement infrastructure.

The DLR platform, which Broadridge describes as the world's largest institutional platform for settling tokenised real assets, enables firms to move tokenised securities within existing market workflows. The platform aims to improve capital utilisation, increase funding flexibility, and reduce operational friction in regulated markets.

Horacio Barakat, Global Head of Digital Innovation, Broadridge Financial Solutions said:

"The sustained growth of DLR reflects a broader shift toward modernising core market infrastructure with tokenised settlement. Institutions are increasingly looking for ways to improve liquidity efficiency and collateral mobility while maintaining operational simplicity. DLR is helping firms put tokenization to work in day-to-day market activity, delivering measurable benefits on an institutional scale."

Broadridge recently announced an expansion of its tokenisation capabilities, extending the infrastructure behind DLR to support tokenised securities across multiple asset classes. The initiative is intended to support the issuance, trading, settlement, and servicing of tokenised assets, enabling institutions to operate across traditional and digital markets through a single, integrated framework.
