A major issue is the lack of accountability and communication between issuers, investors and portfolio managers.The Cost of Inefficiency: The current system's inefficiencies are estimated to cost the industry billions of dollars annually. The total cost of corporate action processing in the U.S. is estimated to be $169 billion per year.Digital Developments: Blockchain technology and smart contracts have the potential to improve the efficiency and transparency of corporate actions. However, the complexity of implementing these technologies and the need for alignment across various systems are highlighted.A Standard Approach: The industry needs to collaborate, with one possible solution deriving from a bridge between traditional finance and digital finance. Either way, standardized messaging protocols are a must, but several challenges exist.© 2025 DTCC. All rights reserved.  DTCC, DTCC (Stylized) and Financial Markets.
