State Street Corporation, known as State Street, is an American worldwide financial services holding company. State Street was founded in 1792 and is the second oldest financial institution in the United States. The company’s headquarters are at One Lincoln Street in Boston and it has offices in 29 countries around the world.〔State Street, 2014, (''Office Locations'' ), retrieved 22 June 2014〕 State Street is organized into three main divisions. The Global Services business is a custodian bank with $28 trillion (USD) of assets under custody and administration. The Global Advisors business provides investment management services and has $2.3 trillion (USD) of assets under management. The Global Markets business offers investment research and trading services to institutional investors. ==History== State Street’s past can be dated back to the founding years of Boston’s banking industry. In 1792 the Union Bank became the third bank to be chartered in Boston and was located at the corner of State and Exchange Streets.〔FundingUniverse, 2014, (''History of State Street Corporation'' ), retrieved 22 June 2014〕 State Street was known as the “Great Street to the Sea” as Boston became a flourishing maritime capital. The clipper in State Street’s logo today reflects this period. In 1865 the Union Bank received a national charter and became the National Union Bank of Boston. State Street Deposit & Trust Co opened alongside National Union in 1891. It became the custodian of the first US mutual fund in 1924, the Massachusetts Investors Trust.〔 State Street and National Union merged in 1925. State Street’s growth during the mid-1900s was fueled by mergers and acquisitions. It merged with the Second National Bank in 1955 and with the Rockland-Atlas National Bank in 1961. William Edgerly gained control in 1975 and shifted the company’s strategy from commercial banking to investments and securities processing.〔 The company began investing heavily in technologies for securities management and custodian processing. It was helped by a partial acquisition of Boston Financial Data Services in 1973.〔 More than 100 top staff from IBM were headhunted by State Street as it set about implementing IBM mainframe systems. State Street’s new building was completed in 1966 and became the first high-rise office tower in downtown Boston. In 1972 the company opened its first international office in Munich. For much of the 1980s and 1990s it expanded to foreign markets with offices in Montreal, Toronto, Dublin, London, Paris, Dubai, Sydney, Wellington, Hong Kong, and Tokyo.〔 It was the early 1990s before State Street brought its technology platform to international markets. By 1992 most of State Street’s revenue came from fees for holding securities, settling trades, keeping records, and performing accounting.〔 It formed a new global asset management business in 1994 and in 1999 divested its retail and commercial banking businesses to Citizens Financial Group. State Street acquired Kansas City, Missouri-based Investors Fiduciary Trust Co. in 1995 for $162 million (USD) from DST Systems, and Kemper Financial Services. In 2003 it purchased Deutsche Bank’s securities services division for $1.5 billion (USD).〔USATODAY.com, 2002, (''State Street will become largest securities services firm'' ), retrieved 22 June 2014〕 State Street purchased Investors Financial Services for $4.5 billion (USD) in 2007.〔State Street, 2007, (''Press Release'' ), retrieved 22 June 2014〕 In 2010 it acquired Mourant International Finance Administration and the securities services group of Intesa Sanpaolo.〔 State Street was named by the G-20 as amongst the world’s 29 systemic banks and must meet all conditions of the Basel III accord.〔Smith, Geoffrey, 2011, ("Bucket List: G20 Panel Names Top Global Banks" ), ''The Wall Street Journal'', retrieved 22 June 2014〕 The company now employs 29,530 people around the world.〔Bloomberg Businessweek, 2014, (''State Street Corp snapshot'' ), retrieved 22 June 2014〕 It claims to have funds under management of $2.3 trillion (USD)〔 and assets under custody and administration of $28 trillion (USD), second to The Bank of New York Mellon. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「State Street Corporation」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
