• CD-based prospectus delivery is paper-free, convenient and cost effective
• Prospectus and supplement information automatically updates to the most recent filing on the SEC's EDGAR system to help ensure timely investor disclosure
• Provides custom-branded, plan-specific content with no administrative hassle

Providing timely, accurate prospectus information about your retirement plan is important. But flipping through a book filled with fund prospectuses – as much as 80 - 90% of which are irrelevant to the recipient – won't enhance your participants' experience or save on plan administrative costs.

Digital Direct converts paper versions of your customers' retirement plan mutual fund prospectuses onto CD-ROM. The electronic prospectus is in the same format as documents found on the Internet and works the same way within your web browser.

Why Use Electronic Prospectuses?
It's more convenient, cost effective and eliminates paper. And, with Broadridge as your investor disclosure solutions partner, you can be confident knowing that information is accurate and sourced directly from the SEC's EDGAR system.

Remain up to date.
Digital Direct eliminates unplanned print or insertion expenses associated with product and fund supplements through its exclusive Update Agent capabilities. Broadridge's Update Agent stores product and fund supplements in a customer-specific library. When the CD is opened, the Update Agent functionality goes out to the specific library and pulls in the associated supplements. As a result, your pre-sale CD's will always be up to date.
