EQUITY ALERT: Rosen Law Firm Announces Investigation of Securities Claims Against State Street Corporation - STT

Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, announces it is investigating potential securities claims on behalf of shareholders of State Street Corporation (NYSE:STT) resulting from allegations that State Street may have issued materially misleading business information to the investing public.

On January 18, 2017, the U.S. Department of Justice announced that State Street entered into a deferred prosecution agreement and agreed to pay a $32.3 million criminal penalty to resolve charges that it engaged in a scheme to defraud a number of the bank’s clients by secretly applying commissions to billions of dollars of securities trades. State Street also agreed to offer an equal amount as a civil penalty to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, equaling an aggregate settlement of more than $64 million. State Street admitted the allegations and agreed to a deferred prosecution agreement that requires it to employ an independent corporate compliance monitor for three years.

Rosen Law Firm is preparing a class action lawsuit to recover losses suffered by State Street investors. If you purchased shares of State Street on or before January 18, 2017 please visit the firm’s website at http://www.rosenlegal.com/cases-1031.html for more information.
