Broad incumbents

• Broadridge Financial Solutions: Broadridge is the dominant incumbent in investor communications and proxy voting, processing the majority of U.S. proxy votes. It competes directly with Proxymity in the digital proxy voting space and is the primary established competitor Proxymity must displace in the U.S. market.

Direct peers

• Computershare: Computershare is a major global transfer agent and shareholder services provider that competes with Proxymity in proxy voting and issuer services. Notably, Computershare is also a Proxymity consortium member and Series B investor, making the relationship both competitive and collaborative.
• Mediant Communications: Mediant provides proxy voting and shareholder communication services to broker-dealers, banks, and issuers in North America. It is both a direct competitor and an investor in Proxymity (led the 2022 funding round), illustrating the strategic relationship between the two platforms.
• Donnelley Financial Solutions (DFIN): DFIN provides regulatory and shareholder communications solutions, including proxy and compliance offerings. It is a direct peer in the shareholder communications and proxy services market, with overlapping enterprise customers among issuers and intermediaries.
• Equiniti: Equiniti is a transfer agent and shareholder services provider that resells Proxymity's proxy voting platform while also operating adjacent shareholder services. This dual role—partner and adjacent competitor—makes it a relevant peer in issuer shareholder services.
• Toppan Merrill: Toppan Merrill offers shareholder communications, proxy, and SEC filing solutions to corporate issuers and financial intermediaries. It is a direct peer in the proxy communications space, particularly competing in the U.S. market.

Emerging players

• Tumelo: Tumelo is a pass-through voting technology provider that partners with Proxymity. It enables retail and institutional investors to vote shares in line with their values, representing an emerging capability adjacent to Proxymity's core proxy voting platform.

Others

• Glass Lewis: Glass Lewis is a leading proxy advisory firm providing voting recommendations to institutional investors. While not a direct competitor in voting infrastructure, it sits in the same proxy voting ecosystem and serves overlapping institutional customers.
• ISS (Institutional Shareholder Services): ISS provides proxy advisory, governance analytics, and corporate governance solutions to institutional investors. It is thematically related to Proxymity through the proxy voting ecosystem, though it operates in advisory rather than infrastructure.
• Symphony Communication Services: Symphony is a secure messaging and workflow platform for financial market participants, including banks, custodians, and asset managers. It is an adjacent enabling technology provider in the same financial market infrastructure space Proxymity serves.
