Global Fintech leader Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. announced that it has acquired iJoin, a leading retirement plan technology provider specializing in participant onboarding, engagement, and analytics solutions for the retirement industry.

"With increasing demand for personalization, growing interest in lifetime income options, and the convergence of retirement and wealth management, there is a greater need for advanced tools and technology to enable record keepers, plan advisors, asset managers, and insurers to deliver plan participants better onboarding experiences, education and advice," said Mike Tae, Group President of Funds, Issuer, and Data-driven Solutions, Broadridge. "There are strong synergies between iJoin's innovations in plan participant data aggregation and standardization, its managed account and income technologies, and Broadridge's retirement plan servicing capabilities. Together, the solutions will help providers across the retirement ecosystem deliver stronger participant outcomes, accelerate growth and enhance efficiency." 

Broadridge's retirement plan investment servicing, custody, analytics, and participant communications solutions will be complemented by iJoin's participant onboarding, managed accounts, retirement income, and data-driven engagement services. The combination will enable Broadridge to more holistically serve providers across the retirement ecosystem with leading retirement enrollment, data, and insights solutions.

"iJoin was founded on the belief that retirement should be more personal for everyone.
