The ICS segment handles the distribution of proxy materials, regulatory communications, and voting processes for corporate issuers, mutual funds, and institutional investors, utilizing platforms like ProxyEdge. The GTO segment provides advanced back- and middle-office securities processing, clearing, and settlement solutions for equities, fixed income, and derivatives across global markets.
