State Street Corporation (NYSE:STT) has successfully completed a significant debt issuance, raising $1.5 billion. This financial maneuver is part of the company's strategic initiatives and was executed with a strong commitment to diversity in its selection of underwriters.
The issuance was divided, with $1 billion allocated to senior debt and the remaining $0.5 billion to senior subordinated debt. The transaction was managed by Siebert Williams Shank & Co., LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., HSBC Securities (USA) Inc., and UBS Securities LLC as joint book-running managers.
In a move that highlights State Street's commitment to diversity and inclusion, diverse group-owned broker-dealers such as Academy Securities, Cabrera Capital Markets, R. Seelaus & Co., and Samuel A. Ramirez & Company were involved as co-managers, underwriting a substantial 40% of the offering.
Kimberly DeTrask, State Street's Treasurer, emphasized the company's dedication to diversity initiatives by partnering with minority-owned firms for the tenth consecutive time. This aligns with their "10 Actions" for racial equity at work. Suzanne Shank, CEO of Siebert Williams Shank & Co., praised State Street for its consistent support of minority and women-owned businesses.
