10th Annual Global Investment Conference

State Street Corporation is one of the world's leading specialists in serving institutional investors, with C$12.2 trillion in assets under custody and C$1.4 trillion under management. State Street Global Markets (SSGM), a division of State Street Corporation, offers trading and investment services to global investment managers through a comprehensive range of products across multiple asset classes. From fact-based research to electronic trade execution and order management, SSGM partners with clients to ensure their success. Our businesses include:

SSGM produces multi-asset class research on the investment holdings, flows and borrowings of institutional investors around the world. Using information aggregated from the more than C$12 trillion for which State Street provides investment services, the research provides unprecedented insights into institutional investor behavior and its interaction with global financial markets. Based on State Street’s unique position at the crossroads of the international investment industry, this research also explores the impact of these activities on currency and equity pricing around the world.

Traditional research, based upon fundamental data sets such as economic indicators and universally distributed company information, often fails to prevent the wide deviation of securities prices from fundamental value. SSGM uses intellectual resources and methodologies unavailable elsewhere in the industry, to produce quantifiable, fact-based research that explores these deviations - particularly the impact of persistent investment flows on portfolio returns.

Spearheading this effort is State Street Associates LLC – a unique partnership of industry and academia dedicated to creating preeminent research in global asset allocation, investor behavior, equity investment and currency management. State Street Associates serves as a research laboratory for analytical tools and proprietary indicators used by State Street Global Market Strategists who combine them with valuation and business cycle analysis to create portfolio strategies over multiple time and risk horizons.

Designed to aid institutional investors at every stage of the currency management process; we provide investment managers with integrated trading services and investment research in currency, money market, equity and fixed income. Our services are available around the globe, twenty-four hours a day, from State Street branches in Boston, Toronto, Montreal, London, Sydney,
