NEW YORK, Jan. 24, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Harwood Feffer LLP
(www.hfesq.com) is investigating potential claims against the
board of directors of State Street Corporation ("State Street" or the "Company") (NYSE: STT) concerning whether the board has
breached its fiduciary duties to shareholders.
On January 18, 2017, the U.S. Department of Justice announced that State Street had entered a
deferred prosecution agreement and agreed to pay a $32.3 million criminal penalty to resolve
charges relating to a scheme to defraud clients. The Company will pay the same amount to settle a civil action filed by the
SEC.
Our investigation concerns whether the Company board of directors has breached its fiduciary duties to shareholders, grossly
mismanaged the Company, and/or committed abuses of control in connection with the foregoing.
If you own State Street shares and wish to discuss this matter with us, or have any questions concerning your rights and
interests with regard to this matter, please contact:
