BNP Paribas’ Securities Services business has announced the implementation of Proxymity’s proxy voting solution for its local custody general meetings services in the UK, Australia, and New Zealand.
According to the firm, this helps clients streamline the voting process and facilitate better governance.
Proxymity, an investor communications platform, connects the ecosystem of issuers, intermediaries, and investors through its digital solutions.
By leveraging Proxymity’s Vote Connect Total solution, Securities Services at BNP Paribas delivers a redesigned, end-to-end general meetings service.
The firm says that this updated offering enables more efficient investor communications, provides accurate and real-time information, and improves overall transparency and engagement.
Proxymity’s solution is also connected with BNP Paribas’ NeoLink client platform, granting clients access to information throughout the general meeting lifecycle.
Clients are able to vote directly on the platform, via SWIFT in the latest ISO standard messages or via their proxy provider, with their votes going to the issuers immediately.
Meanwhile, the BNP Paribas’ Securities Services teams handle clients’ enquiries, monitor activities and coordinate operational flows with Proxymity.
Dean Little, CEO and co-founder at Proxymity, states: “We are delighted to expand our partnership with BNP Paribas’ Securities Services as they continue to enhance their general meeting services in the UK, Australia, and New Zealand.
“By combining Proxymity’s real-time proxy voting technology with BNP Paribas’ trusted custody expertise, we are helping investors and issuers benefit from greater transparency, efficiency, and engagement across the full meeting lifecycle.”
Bruno Campenon, head of financial intermediaries and corporate client line, Securities Services, BNP Paribas, comments: “Proxymity is transforming investor communications by connecting issuers and investors through a transparent and efficient digital ecosystem.
“We are excited to be part of this initiative, starting with the rollout of its proxy voting solution in the UK, Australia, and New Zealand.”
