State Street Corporation

One of the world's largest financial services firms, State Street guards trillions in assets for pension funds, governments, and other institutional investors, offering custody, fund administration, and investment management—including its well-known SPDR exchange-traded funds. It began as the Union Bank in Boston in 1792, taking its name from State Street, the city's historic "Great Street to the Sea." Its vaults famously survived the Great Boston Fire of 1872, and it helped launch the nation's first mutual fund in 1924.
