In announcing today’s financial results, Joseph L. Hooley, State Street’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Second-quarter and year-to-date 2018 results reflect strength across our asset servicing and asset management businesses as well as the benefit from higher net interest income. Importantly, year-to-date EPS growth of 30% compared to the first half of 2017 was supported by a 6% and 20% increase in servicing fees and management fees, respectively. Demand remains strong across our global client base as demonstrated by new servicing commitments announced in the first half of 2018 of $1.5 trillion."

Building on the success of Beacon, we are now focused on achieving greater organizational effectiveness and streamlining to further advance the standardization and globalization of our business."
