Trends and Forces

Exposure to Growth of Asset Management Industry

State Street has benefited from the growth in hedge funds, mutual funds, and other entities needing investment servicing. The hedge fund boom has resulted in a jump from US$40 billion in hedge fund assets under management in the late 80s to over US$650 billion AUM in 2003. Below is a breakdown of State Street's assets since 2003.


Exposure to International Growth

State Street has benefited from the high growth of international markets. Over 25% of serviced and managed assets at State Street are from overseas. The company operates a global business that can withstand a slow US economy and thrive on international growth. The company has the largest global exposure among its competitors at 41% of total revenues. 32% at Bank of New York; 34% at Northern Trust.


Adverse Market Conditions May Impact Fees but Improve Forex Revenue

State Street relies on management and performance fees for revenue. Adverse market conditions in 2007-08 leads to client assets reduction and thus State Street's revenue. On the asset management side, fund performance is negatively impacted due to weak equities. However, State Street has profited from these conditions in the form of higher foreign exchange revenues and better lending spreads.


Exposure to Subprime through MBS & ABCP

As a result of the subprime crisis, there is concern about the State Street's exposure to Mortgage Backed Securities ("MBS") as well as Asset Backed Commercial Papers ("ABCP"). The company has $6 billion in an MBS portfolio and over $29 billion in an ABCP conduit.

It is notable that State Street's conduits have much better ratings than those of its peers.


Competition

Against most of its competitors, State Street has the advantage of size. Its competition consists of the following:

  • Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (NYSE: BK) is a global financial services company.
