Brown Brothers Harriman Continues its Journey to Deliver the Best Investor Experience in the Industry

November 28, 2022
BBH Transfer Agency clients benefit from digital capabilities to navigate the investor onboarding process more efficiently.

Setting the industry

Your investors benefit from a team of experts, including a dedicated Investor Relations Manager, focused on their needs. Local time-zone support and a single technology platform globally enables us to deliver a high-touch, harmonized investor experience throughout the investment lifecycle.

We employ a combination of BBH proprietary systems and leading vendor applications to create a purposefully-designed, scalable, open-architecture operating platform, used by managers, investors, and BBH teams globally. Our platform facilitates interactions between you and your investors, and supports evolving distribution models across diverse financial and regulatory environments.  

We provide consistent access to data and reporting, irrespective of domicile. Our digital client platform, Infuse®, allows full transparency into the transfer agency process with access to real-time data to enable more timely decision-making, save time, and mitigate risk.

Infuse provides a single view into all account openings in progress across your funds, access to the shareholder register, and audit trails along the onboarding journey. You can access real-time transaction reporting, special events, trade data and a suite of reports.

Servicing many of the most successful cross-border asset managers globally, we provide country and regional expertise on market entry, distribution channels, the competitive landscape, product types, and asset flows.

With connectivity to all major global platforms (such as Allfunds, Fundsettle, Vestima, NSCC, EMX, TDCC) and extensive experience of onboarding these relationships, we help you open doors to new markets, navigate their individual nuances, and understand local investor trends.
