Lake Success, NY – July 23, 2008 – Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:BR) is pleased to
announce that they received the Award of Distinction (Silver) in four categories at the 14th Annual
Communicator Awards on May 23, 2008 for communications Broadridge developed. The Communicator
Awards is a leading international awards program that honors creative excellence for communications
professionals. The prestigious award is a testament to Broadridge’s continuous efforts to enable its clients to excel at employee and investor communications through ongoing and effective content development and design enhancements. The awards are given only to those companies whose work exceeds industry standards in quality and excellence, a distinction that puts Broadridge among the best in their field.
For more than a decade, the Communicator Awards has honored the best creative work in the
communications field. More than 8,000 entries were considered for awards this year alone, making it one of the most competitive awards of its kind in the world. This year, Broadridge was recognized with the Award of Distinction for its Personalized Employee Retirement Plan Statement in both the Benefits and Special Edition categories as well as for their Communications Capabilities Brochure in the Capabilities and Overall Design categories. This is the second industry recognition for Broadridge’s Personalized Employee Retirement Plan Statement product, which also received the PODi Best Practices Award in the Direct Marketing category earlier this year.
"We are honored to receive these awards for our Personalized Employee Retirement Plan Statement product and our Communications Capabilities Brochure project,” said Gerard Scavelli, President, Information Distribution Solutions, Broadridge. “Our goal with these communications initiatives is to create high-impact and informative materials that engage the readers and simplify otherwise complex topics. We feel that the recognition by the Communicator Awards is a testament to our leadership in this space."
Broadridge’s Marketing Communications suite of products encompass the development and distribution of pre-sale traditional marketing literature and associated collateral on behalf of funds, brokers and retirement plan providers to prospective investors, existing shareholders and other targeted recipients.
Broadridge’s Personalized Statement product features clear, concise content and visually compelling
illustrations and projections to help its clients inform employees and motivate them to maximize their
retirement plans. The statements are completely personalized for individual employees, containing
information on their accounts, balances and investments, as well as projected account balances at
retirement, based on current contribution levels and investments.
The Communications Capabilities Brochure was developed as a tool to market Broadridge’s diverse
document design, composition, production and fulfillment solutions. The same internal creative team that develops award-winning communications for client initiatives also designed the Capabilities Brochure.
