NEW YORK, May 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Kyndryl (NYSE: KD), a leading provider of mission-critical enterprise technology services, and Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (NYSE: BR), a global Fintech leader, today announced an extension of their longstanding relationship strengthening core platforms and integrating AI-enabled operations alongside quantum-safe capabilities. Under the expanded agreement, Kyndryl Bridge, Kyndryl’s AI-powered, open-integration platform, and Kyndryl’s Agentic AI Framework will be leveraged to support Broadridge’s strategy to drive the democratization and digitization of investing, simplify trading and modernize wealth management.
