Broadridge Speeds Up Compliance with EU Instant Payments Regulations

In a pivotal move for the European banking industry, Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. has launched a rapid compliance solution tailored to meet the upcoming EU Instant Payments regulations, set to be fully enforced by October 2025. This global fintech leader, known for its transformative technology and services, aims to assist banks in transitioning seamlessly to real-time Swift payments.

The announcement, made on July 8, 2025, highlights Broadridge's commitment to enhancing the speed and efficiency of financial transactions across Europe. As financial institutions scramble to implement scalable and cost-effective solutions for instant payments, Broadridge has positioned itself as a key player in this evolving landscape.

Meeting Regulatory Challenges Head-On

With instant payments now a regulatory necessity, financial institutions increasingly rely on Broadridge's innovative capabilities to ensure compliance. As explained by Kai Marzenell, Director of Swift Product Management at Broadridge, the company’s solution not only minimizes onboarding complexity but also significantly reduces costs, granting banks the opportunity to innovate and grow more effectively.

Since the service's launch in late 2024, Broadridge has successfully onboarded several clients. The process took only five months, a remarkable timeline considering that many other service providers require over six months for the same. Partnering with key core banking solution providers like CPB SOFTWARE and instant payment application providers such as Foconis, Broadridge has ensured that banks can easily integrate with the European Central Bank’s Target Instant Payment Settlement (TIPS) system.
