Basis of Presentation	BASIS OF PRESENTATION
	A. Description of Business. Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge” or the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, is a leading global provider of investor communication solutions and securities processing and business process outsourcing services to the financial services industry. In the second quarter of fiscal year 2015, the Company changed the name of its Securities Processing Solutions segment to the Global Technology and Operations segment. The Company classifies its operations into the following two reportable segments:
	•	Investor Communication Solutions—The Bank/Broker-Dealer Investor Communication Solutions, Corporate Issuer Solutions and Mutual Fund and Retirement Solutions businesses operate within this segment. A large portion of Broadridge’s Investor Communication Solutions business involves the processing and distribution of proxy materials to investors in equity securities and mutual funds, as well as the facilitation of related vote processing. ProxyEdge®, Broadridge's innovative electronic proxy delivery and voting solution for institutional investors and financial advisors, helps ensure the participation of the largest stockholders of many companies. Broadridge also provides the distribution of regulatory reports and corporate action/reorganization event information, as well as tax reporting solutions that help its clients meet their regulatory compliance needs. In addition, Broadridge provides financial information distribution and transaction reporting services to both financial institutions and securities issuers. These services include the processing and distribution of account statements and trade confirmations, traditional and personalized document fulfillment and content management services, marketing communications, and imaging, archival and workflow solutions that enable and enhance Broadridge's clients’ communications with investors. All of these communications are delivered through paper or electronic channels. In addition, Broadridge provides corporate issuers with registered proxy services as well as registrar, stock transfer and record-keeping services.
	In July 2013, Broadridge acquired Bonaire Software Solutions, LLC (“Bonaire”), a leading provider of fee calculation, billing, and revenue and expense management solutions for asset managers including institutional asset managers, wealth managers, mutual funds, bank trusts, hedge funds and capital markets firms.
	In February 2014, Broadridge acquired Emerald Connect, LLC ("Emerald"), a leading provider of websites and related communications solutions for financial advisors.
	In March 2015, the Company acquired Direxxis LLC ("Direxxis"), a provider of cloud-based marketing solutions and services.
	•	Global Technology and Operations (formerly known as Securities Processing Solutions)—Broadridge's Global Technology and Operations business offers a suite of advanced computerized real-time transaction processing services that automate the securities transaction lifecycle, from desktop productivity tools, data aggregation, performance reporting, and portfolio management to order capture and execution, trade confirmation, settlement, and accounting. Broadridge's services help financial institutions and investment managers efficiently and cost-effectively consolidate their books and records, gather and service assets under management, focus on their core businesses, and manage risk. With multi-currency capabilities, Broadridge's Global Processing Solution supports real-time global trading of equity, option, mutual fund, and fixed income securities in established and emerging markets. In addition, Broadridge's business process outsourcing services allow broker-dealers to outsource certain administrative functions relating to clearing and settlement, from order entry to trade matching and settlement, while maintaining their ability to finance and capitalize their businesses.
	In December 2014, Broadridge acquired TwoFour Systems LLC (“TwoFour Systems”), a provider of real-time foreign exchange solutions for banks and broker-dealers.
	B. Basis of Presentation. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America (“U.S.”). These financial statements present the condensed consolidated position of the Company. These financial statements include the entities in which the Company directly or indirectly has a controlling financial interest and various entities in which the Company has investments recorded under both the cost and equity methods of accounting. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The results of operations reported for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year or any subsequent interim period. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 (the “2014 Annual Report”) filed on August 7, 2014 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation in accordance with GAAP of the Company’s financial position at March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2014, the results of its operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, and its cash flows for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.
	C. Use of Estimates. The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes thereto. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
	D. Cash and Cash Equivalents. Investment securities with an original maturity of 90 days or less are considered cash equivalents. The fair value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents approximates carrying value.
	E. Financial Instruments. Substantially all of the financial instruments of the Company other than Long-term debt are carried at fair values, or at carrying amounts that approximate fair values because of the short maturity of the instruments. The carrying value of the Company’s long-term fixed-rate senior notes represents the face value of the long-term fixed-rate senior notes net of the unamortized discount. The fair value of the Company’s long-term fixed-rate senior notes is based on quoted market prices. See Note 9, “Borrowings,” for a further discussion of the Company’s long-term fixed-rate senior notes.
	F. Equity Method Investments. The Company's investments resulting in a 50% or less ownership interest are accounted for using the equity method of accounting when the ability to exercise significant influence is maintained by the Company. The Company's share of net income or losses of equity method investments is included in losses from equity method investments in Other expenses, net. Equity method investments are included in Other non-current assets. Equity method investments are reviewed for impairment by assessing if a decline in market value of the investment below the carrying value is other than temporary, which considers the intent and ability to retain the investment, the length of time and extent that the market value has been less than cost, and the financial condition of the investee.
	G. Subsequent Events. In preparing the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic (“ASC”) No. 855, “Subsequent Events,” the Company has reviewed events that have occurred after March 31, 2015, through the date of issuance of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. During this period, the Company completed an acquisition in the Investor Communication Solutions segment. Please see Note 15, “Subsequent Event.”

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]
New Accounting Pronouncements	NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
	In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2015-3, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs”("ASU No. 2015-3") to require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. ASU No. 2015-3 is effective for the Company in first quarter of fiscal year 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of ASU No. 2015-3 on its consolidated financial statements.
	In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-2, “Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis”("ASU No. 2015-2") to provide consolidation guidance for limited partnerships, limited liability companies and securitization structures.  In addition to reducing the number of consolidation models, the new standard places more emphasis on risk of loss when determining a controlling financial interest.  ASU No. 2015-2 is effective for the Company in fiscal year 2017 and subsequent interim periods beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of ASU No. 2015-2 on its consolidated financial statements.
	In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASU No. 2014-09"), to supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU No. 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. ASU No. 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, it is possible more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than required under existing U.S. GAAP including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. ASU No. 2014-09 is effective for the Company in our first quarter of fiscal year 2018 using either of two methods: (i) retrospective to each prior reporting period presented with the option to elect certain practical expedients as defined within ASU No. 2014-09; or (ii) retrospective with the cumulative effect of initially applying ASU No. 2014-09 recognized at the date of initial application and providing certain additional disclosures as defined per ASU No. 2014-09. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of ASU No. 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements.
	In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, "Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity" ("ASU No. 2014-08"), to change the criteria for determining which disposals can be presented as discontinued operations and enhanced the related disclosure requirements. ASU No. 2014-08 is effective for the Company on a prospective basis in our first quarter of fiscal year 2016 with early adoption permitted for disposals (or classifications as held for sale) that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued. The impact of adopting ASU No. 2014-08 is dependent upon the nature of dispositions, if any, after adoption.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings Per Share	EARNINGS PER SHARE
	Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing the Company’s Net earnings by the basic Weighted-average shares outstanding for the periods presented.
	Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if outstanding stock options at the presented date are exercised and shares of restricted stock units have vested.
	The computation of diluted EPS did not include 0.9 million and 1.6 million options to purchase Broadridge common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2015, and 2014, respectively, and 0.9 million and 0.6 million options to purchase Broadridge common stock for the nine months ended March 31, 2015, and 2014, respectively, as the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
	The following table sets forth the denominators of the basic and diluted EPS computations (in millions):

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Acquisitions	ACQUISITIONS
	Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations were recorded on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of the respective acquisition dates based upon their estimated fair values at such dates. The results of operations of businesses acquired by the Company were included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings since their respective dates of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed was allocated to Goodwill.
	During the nine months ended March 31, 2015, the Company acquired two businesses:
	Direxxis
	In March 2015, the Company's Investor Communication Solutions segment acquired Direxxis, a provider of cloud-based marketing solutions and services. The purchase price was $33.3 million, net of cash acquired. Net assets assumed in the transaction were $0.3 million. In addition, the Company recorded a $0.8 million liability for the fair value of potential additional cash payments, which are payable over the next three years contingent upon the achievement by the acquired business of certain revenue and earnings targets. This acquisition resulted in $20.1 million of Goodwill and $13.7 million of intangible assets, consisting primarily of acquired customer relationships and software technology, which are being amortized over a ten-year life and five-year life, respectively. The results of Direxxis' operations were included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q from the date of acquisition. The allocation of the purchase price will be finalized upon completion of the analysis of the fair values of Direxxis' assets and liabilities. Pro forma supplemental financial information is not provided as the impact of the acquisition on the Company’s operating results, financial position or cash flows was not material.
	TwoFour Systems
	In December 2014, the Company's Global Technology and Operations segment acquired TwoFour Systems, a provider of real-time foreign exchange solutions for banks and broker-dealers. The purchase price was $31.6 million. Net liabilities assumed in the transaction were $3.2 million. In addition, the Company recorded a $1.1 million liability for the fair value of potential additional cash payments, which are payable over the next three years contingent upon the achievement by the acquired business of certain revenue and earnings targets. This acquisition resulted in $25.4 million of Goodwill. Intangible assets acquired, which totaled $10.5 million, consist primarily of acquired software technology and customer relationships, which are being amortized over a seven-year life and ten-year life, respectively. The results of TwoFour Systems' operations were included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q from the date of acquisition. Pro forma supplemental financial information is not provided as the impact of the acquisition on the Company’s operating results, financial position or cash flows was not material.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments	9 Months Ended

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
	Accounting guidance on fair value measurements for certain financial assets and liabilities requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
	Level 1	Inputs that are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets. Level 1 assets for the Company includes a money market deposit account (“MMDA account”).
	Level 2	Quoted prices in markets that are not considered to be active or financial instruments for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.
	Level 3	Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
	In valuing assets and liabilities, the Company is required to maximize the use of quoted market prices and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The Company calculates the fair value of its Level 1 and Level 2 instruments based on the exchange traded price of similar or identical instruments where available or based on other observable instruments. These calculations take into consideration the credit risk of both the Company and its counterparties. The Company has not changed its valuation techniques in measuring the fair value of any financial assets and liabilities during the period.
	In June 2013, the Company purchased certain available-for-sale securities in a non-public entity for which the lowest level of significant inputs was unobservable. On a recurring basis, the Company uses pricing models and similar techniques for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment by management. Accordingly, the Company classifies the available-for-sale securities as Level 3 in the table below.
	The following tables set forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities at March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2014, respectively, that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis during the period, segregated by level within the fair value hierarchy:

Changes in economic conditions or model based valuation techniques may require the transfer of financial instruments between levels. The Company’s policy is to record transfers between levels if any, as of the beginning of the fiscal year. For the nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, there were no transfers between levels.

	Fiscal 2015 Revolving Credit Facility: On August 14, 2014, the Company entered into an amended and restated $750.0 million five-year revolving credit facility (the “Fiscal 2015 Revolving Credit Facility”), which replaced the $500.0 million five-year revolving credit facility entered into in September 2012 (the "Fiscal 2012 Revolving Credit Facility"). The Fiscal 2015 Revolving Credit Facility is comprised of a $670.0 million U.S. dollar tranche and an $80.0 million multicurrency tranche.
	Borrowings under the Fiscal 2015 Revolving Credit Facility initially bear interest at LIBOR plus 112.5 basis points. The Fiscal 2015 Revolving Credit Facility has an annual facility fee equal to 12.5 basis points on the unused portion of the facility, which totaled $0.2 million and $0.6 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015. The Company incurred $1.9 million in debt issuance costs to establish the Fiscal 2015 Revolving Credit Facility. During the quarter ended September 30, 2014, the Company expensed $0.1 million of issuance costs related to certain lenders from the 2012 Revolving Credit Facility that are not participating in the Fiscal 2015 Revolving Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2015, $2.1 million of debt issuance costs remain to be amortized (including $0.4 million of issuance costs from the Fiscal 2012 Revolving Credit Facility). Such costs are capitalized in Other non-current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are being amortized to Other expenses, net on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method, over the term of this facility.
	The Company may voluntarily prepay, in whole or in part and without premium or penalty, borrowings under the Fiscal 2015 Revolving Credit Facility at any time. The Fiscal 2015 Revolving Credit Facility is subject to covenants, including financial covenants consisting of a leverage ratio and an interest coverage ratio. At March 31, 2015, the Company is not aware of any instances of non-compliance with the financial covenants of the Fiscal 2015 Revolving Credit Facility.
	Fiscal 2007 Senior Notes: In May 2007, the Company completed an offering of $250.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior notes (the “Fiscal 2007 Senior Notes”). The Fiscal 2007 Senior Notes will mature on June 1, 2017 and bear interest at a rate of 6.125% per annum. Interest on the Fiscal 2007 Senior Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1st and December 1st each year. The Fiscal 2007 Senior Notes were issued at a price of 99.1% (effective yield to maturity of 6.251%). The indenture governing the Fiscal 2007 Senior Notes contains certain covenants including covenants restricting the Company’s ability to create or incur liens securing indebtedness for borrowed money and to enter into certain sale-leaseback transactions. At March 31, 2015, the Company is not aware of any instances of non-compliance with the covenants of the indenture governing the Fiscal 2007 Senior Notes. The indenture also contains covenants regarding the purchase of the Fiscal 2007 Senior Notes upon a change of control triggering event. The Fiscal 2007 Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and rank equally with the Company’s other senior indebtedness. The Company may redeem the Fiscal 2007 Senior Notes in whole or in part at any time before their maturity. The Company incurred $1.9 million in debt issuance costs to establish the Fiscal 2007 Senior Notes. These costs have been capitalized and are being amortized to Other expenses, net on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method, over the ten-year term. As of March 31, 2015, $0.3 million of debt issuance costs remain to be amortized. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, the Company purchased $125.0 million principal amount of the Fiscal 2007 Senior Notes (including $1.0 million unamortized bond discount) pursuant to a cash tender offer for such notes. The fair value of the fixed-rate Fiscal 2007 Senior Notes at March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2014 was $136.2 million and $139.1 million, respectively, based on quoted market prices and has been classified as a Level 1 financial liability (as defined in Note 6, “Fair Value of Financial Instruments”).
	Fiscal 2014 Senior Notes: In August 2013, the Company completed an offering of $400.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior notes (the “Fiscal 2014 Senior Notes”). The Fiscal 2014 Senior Notes will mature on September 1, 2020 and bear interest at a rate of 3.95% per annum. Interest on the Fiscal 2014 Senior Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1st and September 1st each year. The Fiscal 2014 Senior Notes were issued at a price of 99.871% (effective yield to maturity of 3.971%). The indenture governing the Fiscal 2014 Senior Notes contains certain covenants including covenants restricting the Company’s ability to create or incur liens securing indebtedness for borrowed money and to enter into certain sale-leaseback transactions. At March 31, 2015, the Company is not aware of any instances of non-compliance with the covenants of the indenture governing the Fiscal 2014 Senior Notes. The indenture also contains covenants regarding the purchase of the Fiscal 2014 Senior Notes upon a change of control triggering event. The Fiscal 2014 Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and rank equally with the Company’s other senior indebtedness. The Company may redeem the Fiscal 2014 Senior Notes in whole or in part at any time before their maturity. The Company incurred $4.3 million in debt issuance costs to establish the Fiscal 2014 Senior Notes. These costs have been capitalized and are being amortized to Other expenses, net on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method, over the seven-year term. As of March 31, 2015, $3.3 million of debt issuance costs remain to be amortized. The fair value of the fixed-rate Fiscal 2014 Senior Notes at March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2014 was $424.3 million and $426.6 million based on quoted market prices and has been classified as a Level 1 financial liability (as defined in Note 6, “Fair Value of Financial Instruments”).
	In addition, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries established unsecured, uncommitted lines of credit with banks. As of March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2014, there were no outstanding borrowings under these lines of credit.

	_____________
	(a)	Stock options exercised during the period of July 1, 2014 through March 31, 2015 had an aggregate intrinsic value of $68.9 million.
	(b)	Time-based and performance-based restricted stock units that vested during the period of July 1, 2014 through March 31, 2015 had a fair value of $3.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively.
	The Company has stock-based compensation plans under which the Company annually grants stock option and restricted stock unit awards. Exercise prices on options granted have been and continue to be set equal to the market price of the underlying shares on the date of the grant (except special stock option grants which were granted in fiscal years 2008, 2009, and 2010 to certain executive officers who were with the brokerage division of Automatic Data Processing, Inc. at the time of the spin-off, some of which have a premium exercise price), with the measurement of stock-based compensation expense recognized in Net earnings based on the fair value of the award on the date of grant. Stock-based compensation expense of $10.3 million, as well as related tax benefits of $3.9 million was recognized for both the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. Stock-based compensation expense of $29.9 million and $25.0 million, as well as related tax benefits of $11.3 million and $9.4 million was recognized for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
	As of March 31, 2015, the total remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options and restricted stock unit awards amounted to $17.4 million and $36.2 million, respectively, which will be amortized over the weighted-average remaining requisite service periods of 3.3 years and 1.7 years, respectively.
	For stock options issued, the fair value of each stock option was estimated on the date of grant using a binomial option pricing model. The binomial model considers a range of assumptions related to volatility, risk-free interest rate and employee exercise behavior. Expected volatilities utilized in the binomial model are based on a combination of implied market volatilities, historical volatility of the Company’s stock price and other factors. Similarly, the dividend yield is based on historical experience and expected future changes. The risk-free rate is derived from the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The binomial model also incorporates exercise and forfeiture assumptions based on an analysis of historical data. The expected life of the stock option grants is derived from the output of the binomial model and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	INCOME TAXES
	The Provision for income taxes and effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015 were $27.9 million and 34.1%, and $62.3 million and 34.0%, compared to $26.1 million and 33.9%, and $66.1 million and 35.0% for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the comparable prior year period is primarily attributable to the decrease in the percentage of lower taxed non-U.S. earnings as a percentage of total earnings before income taxes.  The decrease for the nine month period ended March 31, 2015 compared to the comparable prior year period is primarily attributable to the recognition of the U.S. federal research and development tax credits based on the December 2014 legislative reinstatement of this credit for calendar year 2014, as well as a lower U.S. state effective rate and certain reserve items released due to statute of limitation expiration, partially offset by a change in the geographical mix of income which lowered the percentage of lower taxed non-U.S. earnings as a percentage of total earnings before income taxes when compared to the comparable prior year period.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Contractual Commitments, Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements	CONTRACTUAL COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
	In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to various claims and litigation. While the outcome of any claim or litigation is inherently unpredictable, the Company believes that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a material impact on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
	In March 2010, the Company and International Business Machines Corporation (“IBM”) entered into an Information Technology Services Agreement (the “IT Services Agreement”), under which IBM provides certain aspects of the Company’s information technology infrastructure. Under the IT Services Agreement, IBM provides a broad range of technology services to the Company including supporting its mainframe, midrange, open systems, network and data center operations, as well as providing disaster recovery services. The Company has the option of incorporating additional services into the agreement over time. The migration of data center processing to IBM was completed in August 2012. The IT Services Agreement would have expired on June 30, 2022. In March 2015, the Company signed a two-year extension to the IT Services Agreement which expires on June 30, 2024. The Company has the right to renew the term of the IT Services Agreement for up to one additional 12-month term. Commitments remaining under this agreement at March 31, 2015 are $551.7 million through fiscal year 2024, the final year of the contract.
	In March 2014, the Company and IBM United Kingdom Limited (“IBM UK”) entered into an Information Technology Services Agreement (the “EU IT Services Agreement”), under which IBM UK provides data center services supporting the Company's technology outsourcing services for certain clients in Europe and Asia. The EU IT Services Agreement expires in October 2023. The Company has the right to renew the initial term of the EU IT Services Agreement for up to one additional 12-month term or one additional 24-month term. Commitments remaining under this agreement at March 31, 2015 are $41.4 million through fiscal year 2024, the final year of the contract.
	In July 2014, the Company entered into an agreement providing for a capital commitment of $7.5 million to be made by the Company into an equity method investment. The Company contributed $5.5 million to this investment during the nine months ended March 31, 2015, and has a remaining commitment of $2.0 million through June 30, 2015.
	It is not the Company’s business practice to enter into off-balance sheet arrangements. However, the Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates that could impact its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The Company manages its exposure to these market risks through its regular operating and financing activities and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. The Company may use derivative financial instruments as risk management tools and not for trading purposes. The Company was not a party to any derivative financial instruments as of March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2014. In the normal course of business, the Company also enters into contracts in which it makes representations and warranties that relate to the performance of the Company’s products and services. The Company does not expect any material losses related to such representations and warranties, or collateral arrangements.
	The Company's business process outsourcing and mutual fund processing services are performed by a securities broker-dealer, Broadridge Business Process Outsourcing, LLC ("BBPO"). BBPO is registered with the SEC, is a member of Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”), and is required to participate in the Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC"). Although BBPO's FINRA membership agreement allows it to engage in clearing, and the retailing of corporate securities in addition to mutual fund retailing on a wire order basis, BBPO does not clear customer transactions, process any retail business or carry customer accounts. BBPO is subject to regulations concerning many aspects of its business, including trade practices, capital requirements, record retention, money laundering prevention, the protection of customer funds and customer securities, and the supervision of the conduct of directors, officers and employees. A failure to comply with any of these laws, rules or regulations could result in censure, fine, the issuance of cease-and-desist orders, or the suspension or revocation of SEC or FINRA authorization granted to allow the operation of its business or disqualification of its directors, officers or employees. Recently, there has been increased regulatory scrutiny of the securities industry including the outsourcing by firms of their operations or functions. This oversight could result in the future enactment of more restrictive laws or rules with respect to business process outsourcing. In addition, MG Trust Company, LLC (“MG Trust Company”), a subsidiary of the Company's Matrix Financial Solutions, Inc. ("Matrix"), is a Colorado State non-depository trust company and National Securities Clearing Corporation trust member, whose primary business is to provide cash agent, custodial and directed or non-discretionary trust services to institutional customers. MG Trust Company operates pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Colorado Division of Banking.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Interim Financial Data by Segment	INTERIM FINANCIAL DATA BY SEGMENT
	The Company classifies its operations into the following two reportable segments: Investor Communication Solutions and Global Technology and Operations (formerly known as Securities Processing Solutions).
	The primary components of “Other” are the elimination of intersegment revenues and profits as well as certain unallocated expenses. Foreign currency exchange is a reconciling item between the actual foreign currency exchange rates and fiscal year 2015 budgeted foreign currency exchange rates.
	Certain corporate expenses, as well as certain centrally managed expenses, are allocated based upon budgeted amounts in a reasonable manner. Because the Company compensates the management of its various businesses on, among other factors, segment profit, the Company may elect to record certain segment-related expense items in Other rather than reflect such items in segment profit.
	In connection with an organizational change made in 2014 in order to further align and enhance our portfolio of services, certain discrete services that were previously reported in our Global Technology and Operations reportable segment are now reported within the Investor Communication Solutions reportable segment.  As a result, our prior period segment results have been revised to reflect this change in reporting segments.

Subsequent Event	SUBSEQUENT EVENT
	On April 10, 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of the trade processing business of the Wilmington Trust Retirement and Institutional Services unit of M&T Bank Corporation. The acquired business is being combined with Broadridge’s mutual fund and ETF trade processing platform in its Investor Communication Solutions segment. The purchase price was $61.0 million, subject to net working capital and post-closing adjustments.

Basis_of_Presentation_Policies

Basis of Presentation (Policies)	9 Months Ended
	Mar. 31, 2015
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America (“U.S.”). These financial statements present the condensed consolidated position of the Company. These financial statements include the entities in which the Company directly or indirectly has a controlling financial interest and various entities in which the Company has investments recorded under both the cost and equity methods of accounting. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The results of operations reported for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year or any subsequent interim period. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 (the “2014 Annual Report”) filed on August 7, 2014 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation in accordance with GAAP of the Company’s financial position at March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2014, the results of its operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, and its cash flows for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates. The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes thereto. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents. Investment securities with an original maturity of 90 days or less are considered cash equivalents. The fair value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents approximates carrying value.
Financial Instruments	Financial Instruments. Substantially all of the financial instruments of the Company other than Long-term debt are carried at fair values, or at carrying amounts that approximate fair values because of the short maturity of the instruments. The carrying value of the Company’s long-term fixed-rate senior notes represents the face value of the long-term fixed-rate senior notes net of the unamortized discount. The fair value of the Company’s long-term fixed-rate senior notes is based on quoted market prices. See Note 9, “Borrowings,” for a further discussion of the Company’s long-term fixed-rate senior notes.
Equity Method Investments	Equity Method Investments. The Company's investments resulting in a 50% or less ownership interest are accounted for using the equity method of accounting when the ability to exercise significant influence is maintained by the Company. The Company's share of net income or losses of equity method investments is included in losses from equity method investments in Other expenses, net. Equity method investments are included in Other non-current assets. Equity method investments are reviewed for impairment by assessing if a decline in market value of the investment below the carrying value is other than temporary, which considers the intent and ability to retain the investment, the length of time and extent that the market value has been less than cost, and the financial condition of the investee.
Subsequent Events	Subsequent Events. In preparing the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic (“ASC”) No. 855, “Subsequent Events,” the Company has reviewed events that have occurred after March 31, 2015, through the date of issuance of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. During this period, the Company completed an acquisition in the Investor Communication Solutions segment. Please see Note 15, “Subsequent Event.”
New Accounting Pronouncements	NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
	In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2015-3, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs”("ASU No. 2015-3") to require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. ASU No. 2015-3 is effective for the Company in first quarter of fiscal year 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of ASU No. 2015-3 on its consolidated financial statements.
	In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-2, “Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis”("ASU No. 2015-2") to provide consolidation guidance for limited partnerships, limited liability companies and securitization structures.  In addition to reducing the number of consolidation models, the new standard places more emphasis on risk of loss when determining a controlling financial interest.  ASU No. 2015-2 is effective for the Company in fiscal year 2017 and subsequent interim periods beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of ASU No. 2015-2 on its consolidated financial statements.
	In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASU No. 2014-09"), to supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU No. 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. ASU No. 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, it is possible more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than required under existing U.S. GAAP including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. ASU No. 2014-09 is effective for the Company in our first quarter of fiscal year 2018 using either of two methods: (i) retrospective to each prior reporting period presented with the option to elect certain practical expedients as defined within ASU No. 2014-09; or (ii) retrospective with the cumulative effect of initially applying ASU No. 2014-09 recognized at the date of initial application and providing certain additional disclosures as defined per ASU No. 2014-09. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of ASU No. 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements.
	In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, "Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity" ("ASU No. 2014-08"), to change the criteria for determining which disposals can be presented as discontinued operations and enhanced the related disclosure requirements. ASU No. 2014-08 is effective for the Company on a prospective basis in our first quarter of fiscal year 2016 with early adoption permitted for disposals (or classifications as held for sale) that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued. The impact of adopting ASU No. 2014-08 is dependent upon the nature of dispositions, if any, after adoption.
