Driving Sustainability to Make a Difference for Our Associates, Clients, Investors and Communities

Integrating ESG into a sustainable business strategy by lowering our environmental footprint, fostering a safe and diverse work environment and ensuring strong governance to achieve all of our sustainability goals.

Corporate sustainability is the foundation of how we operate our company.

We are committed to conducting our business based on responsible ESG practices. This commitment to sustainability is a core value driving our dedication to service. We believe there is a direct connection between employee engagement, client satisfaction and the creation of shareholder value—a concept known as the Service-Profit Chain. At Broadridge, we put this idea to work not only in our internal policies and processes but also in our communities, just as we do for our valued partners. We recognize that the stronger our commitments to sustainable practices are internally and in the communities around us, the more we are able to provide to the marketplace.

“At Broadridge, we have always believed in doing well by doing good. We are committed to supporting our associates, clients, investors, and the communities where we live and work to create the best long-term outcomes for all.”

Environmental

We pride ourselves in pursuing opportunities for economic growth that simultaneously align with doing good for the environment. Our biggest opportunity to lower greenhouse gas emissions is through the services we perform on behalf of our clients—by driving digitization and reducing paper mailing materials. We are committed to helping our clients through our smart supply-chain management, while also improving our own energy consumption and waste production behaviors.

Diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), associate and community engagement, and health and safety are woven into everything we do.

Governance

We believe strong corporate governance practices and policies are integral in fostering a culture of integrity, managing a better-performing and sustainable business, and achieving long-term shareholder value. Strong corporate governance starts with an independent, experienced, and diverse Board of Directors. Through our framework of policies, processes, and Board oversight, we focus on better managing our business and aligning the interests of management with those of our stakeholders.

We also support strong corporate governance through our governance and communications solutions, which provide the critical infrastructure underlying the corporate governance process.

We also support the financial markets by providing critical infrastructure that powers investing, corporate governance, and communications. Whether our clients are focused on managing investments, ensuring compliance, or engaging shareholders, we help them uncover opportunity—and manage risk—across the entire ESG landscape.

United Nations Sustainable Development Goals

The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity by 2030. At Broadridge, we understand these challenges and align with these goals. We have identified four primary SDGs where we strive to make our greatest contributions.

SDG #4 works to ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promotes lifelong learning opportunities for all.

We closely align with goal 4, target 4.3 to “ensure equal access for all women and men to affordable and quality technical, vocational and tertiary education, including university.” We also align with goal 4, target 4.5 to “eliminate gender disparities in education and ensure equal access to all levels of education and vocational training for the vulnerable, including persons with disabilities, indigenous peoples and children in vulnerable situations.”



More about this goal

At Broadridge, we believe access to quality education is a core human right. By supporting the educational advancement of our associates, donating resources to charitable causes dedicated to education, and volunteering our time to tutoring students, we promote equal access to quality education for all people. We also sponsor academic scholarships for the children of our associates and offer tuition reimbursement for full-time employees.

Broadridge has long-standing partnerships with community organizations, such as the India-based Mamidipudi Venkatarangaiya Foundation, which supports and educates children in India who have been subjected to child labor. We also support the Sri Vidhyas Centre, an institution in India where children with physical and mental disabilities from all backgrounds can learn the skills needed to live a productive life.

Additionally, we partner with the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association Foundation, Virtual Enterprises International and NPower to provide educational opportunities for young adults and students in underserved communities. Broadridge launched a partnership with the Thurgood Marshall College Fund to provide scholarships, educational workshops and internship opportunities for students attending Historically Black Colleges and Universities and Predominantly Black Institutions.

SDG #8 promotes inclusive and sustainable economic growth, employment and decent work for all.

In alignment with goal 8, target 8.2 we work to promote diverse economic growth and productive employment for our associates “through diversification, technological upgrading and innovation.”



More about this goal

We believe that investing in the well-being and success of our people is an investment in our future. Our strong ethical culture fosters productive teamwork, which drives the Service-Profit Chain and makes our people more successful. We offer numerous training and development opportunities, including online courses and on-site training.

Our career development programs support associates in learning new skills, developing core talents, and growing their areas of expertise. These training and development opportunities include, but are not limited to, ethical standards and compliance; diversity, equity and inclusion; technology skills; and a wide variety of leadership and professional skills offerings to support career growth.

Our Associate Networks are key in shaping our company culture, supporting associates’ personal and professional development, and enabling cross-company networking and mentorship opportunities. We play our part to ensure productive employment and decent work for all associates and understand that there is more work to be done on a global scale.

In addition, with our partner NPower, Broadridge aims to provide STEM-related educational opportunities by launching digital careers for military veterans, their spouses, and young adults from underserved communities. It is through this partnership that Broadridge is able to welcome several NPower alumni to our diverse talent pipeline.

SDG #10 focuses on reducing inequalities within and among countries.

At Broadridge, we work diligently to “empower and promote the social, economic, and political inclusion of all, irrespective of age, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, race, ethnicity, origin, religion, or economic or other status” in alignment with goal 10, target 10.2.



More about this goal

We recognize that when we embrace each other’s similarities, differences, and unique perspectives, we can work together to find new, innovative ways to address challenges and make our clients—and Broadridge—succeed. Our commitment to DEI starts with our dedicated executive group, the Executive Diversity Council, including our Chief Diversity Officer, and extends through our passionate Associate Networks: BeGreen, B.Pride, Disability Equity Associate Network, Lead For Next, The MultiCultural Associate Network, Veteran + First Responder Network, and the Women’s Leadership Forum.

We joined the Board Challenge as a Charter Partner, a movement to accelerate change and increase Black board membership.

SDG #12 works to ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns.

We closely align with goal 12, target 12.6 “to adopt sustainable practices and to integrate sustainability information” into our reporting cycle through our voluntary, annual Carbon Disclosure Project Report and Sustainability Reports.



More about this goal

Broadridge aims to increase the adoption of environmentally sustainable practices around the procurement and consumption of natural resources, as well as the performance of our services and production of our products. Initiatives that we have already adopted related to responsible consumption and production include acquiring a solar energy facility, sourcing all of our paper products from responsibly managed forests, and implementing recyclable packaging film encasing some of our proxy materials and other paper mailings. We are not only reducing our own GHG emissions but also minimizing our clients’ carbon footprints with our digital products and ensuring a sustainable supply chain across the industry in which we operate.
