Broadridge Financial Solutions announced a strategic partnership and minority investment in Uptiq, an artificial intelligence platform for financial services. The deal will integrate Uptiq’s technology into the Broadridge Wealth Lending Network (WLN), aiming to automate securities-based lending workflows and improve client outcomes for financial advisors and banks.
The Wealth Lending Network is a digital platform that links wealth managers, advisors, and clients with a range of lenders offering securities-based lines of credit. The integration with Uptiq is designed to help advisors source and compare tailored loan options, while automating tasks such as referral submission, loan processing, and covenant tracking. Broadridge said the combined solution expands access to credit, improves compliance, and reduces friction in delivering lending services to wealth clients.

Mike Alexander, President of Wealth Management at Broadridge, commented, “This strategic partnership helps modernize wealth management, addressing the growing demand for artificial intelligence in financial services, as well as a need to develop a better wealth lending process that is efficient, compliant and personalized. With Uptiq’s AI-powered tools and Broadridge’s Wealth Lending Network, we are enabling advisors to deliver smarter lending recommendations, save time, and ultimately help their clients access the liquidity needed to achieve their financial goals. Our investment demonstrates our commitment to driving innovation in the wealth lending ecosystem.”
Uptiq’s platform uses AI to guide advisors toward the most relevant lending options while streamlining the process of connecting with participating banks. Snehal Fulzele, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Uptiq, said, “Uptiq was purpose-built to remove the heavy lifting from lending. Our AI-driven platform surfaces the most relevant loan options, actively guiding advisors so they can focus on serving clients instead of wrestling with process complexities. By connecting directly with Broadridge’s Wealth Lending Network banks, we’re making it easier than ever to provide securities-based lending as a compelling and compliant liquidity solution.”
Broadridge said its investment will support Uptiq’s growth and the joint goal of using AI to make lending processes more efficient, scalable, and client-focused. The companies aim to help financial institutions adapt to technology-driven change while expanding wealth lending opportunities.
