Euroclear acquires minority stake in Proxymity
Euroclear has acquired a minority stake in digital investor communications platform Proxymity, becoming a strategic shareholder and client.
The investment builds on Proxymity’s strong momentum following the successful close of its Series C funding round last year.
Euroclear’s investment signals continued confidence in Proxymity’s capabilities and supports the further development of its global proxy voting and shareholder disclosure technology, alongside its ongoing international expansion. Through this investment, Euroclear joins Proxymity’s established consortium of global custodians, transfer agents and market infrastructure operators.
As global provider of Financial Market Infrastructure (FMI) services, Euroclear enables domestic and cross-border securities transactions and asset safekeeping worldwide. Proxymity’s platform will be integrated within Euroclear’s corporate actions and governance services, advancing its digital capabilities and strengthening the delivery of seamless, end-to-end services to clients globally. Proxymity looks forward to working closely with Euroclear to deliver digital shareholder communications at a greater scale across global markets.
Dean Little, CEO and Co-Founder at Proxymity said:
“Euroclear’s investment and commitment as a client marks an important step in our continued growth. Modernising shareholder communications requires closer collaboration between infrastructure providers and technology platforms and this partnership reflects that progress. Aligning more closely with post-trade operations is critical to delivering more connected and reliable processes across markets.”
Sebastien Danloy, Chief Business Officer at Euroclear, said:
“This investment reflects Euroclear’s ongoing strategy to support technology that brings true value to clients and ultimately makes their lives easier. By integrating Proxymity’s real-time digital capabilities, we can help clients reduce operational complexity, improve transparency and make voting and shareholder communications faster and more reliable across markets. Working closely with Proxymity allows us to deliver more efficient governance services, reduce manual intervention and provide a better overall client experience.”
