Proxymity Vote Connect Total is the digital proxy service powered by Proxymity's investor communications platform. The service allows "golden source" meeting announcements and agendas to be published directly from issuers to investors. Investors can then send votes in real-time to issuers or their agents without the need for manual intervention and receive true digital confirmation that their votes have been cast.

Rachel Turner, Global Head of Commercial Product at BNY Mellon, said: "As a long-time collaborator with Proxymity, and one of its early investors, we're pleased to announce the go-live on Proxymity's digital proxy voting platform across our French and Belgium markets. Achieving this milestone further demonstrates our deep commitment to offer a world-class proxy service experience through innovative digital solutions for our clients."

In 2020, and again in 2022 as part of Proxymity's Series B fundraising, BNY Mellon invested in Proxymity as part of an industry-leading consortium, recognising the benefits of a widely adopted platform across the investment ecosystem.

Dean Little, Co-Founder and CEO of Proxymity, said: "We are thrilled to support BNY Mellon as it goes live on our digital proxy service in several European markets. BNY Mellon is an important, long-term member of investor consortium and a valued client. I look forward to our ongoing successful collaboration‒one that is collectively bringing benefits and technological innovation to the global financial ecosystem."
