SEC Fines State Street $88 Million For Fund Markups

FYI: The Securities and Exchange Commission today announced that State Street Bank and Trust Company has agreed to pay over $88 million to settle charges that for almost two decades the global firm systemically overcharged retail mutual fund clients to custody their assets.

The Boston-based institution, which custodies some $32 trillion, overcharged clients $170 million including a “secret markup” the firm tacked on to the cost of sending secured financial messages through the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT) network, the SEC said in its order.
