Pittsburgh-based Fi360 offers analytical and reporting software to assess products and document investment processes. Its analytics offerings are designed to automate compliance procedures. The firm also offers online and in-classroom training for retirement and wealth professionals.

Broadridge believes that Fi360’s fiduciary tools will strengthen its existing retirement solutions and complement its Matrix trust and trading platform. Fi360 technology is also said to offer Broadridge more transparency into the retirement market.

The deal is pending regulatory nod, with completion anticipated next month.

Broadridge Mutual Fund and Retirement Solutions business head Michael Liberatore said: “The shift to fee-based advice and imminent regulatory changes, including the SEC’s Regulation Best Interest, are increasing the scrutiny on firms to ensure that they are demonstrating prudent advisory practices.
