Our values define what we stand for and the behaviors we want to encourage in each other. They unite us as an organization and guide every decision we make.

Our Values
Guiding our Decisions
The lasting relationships we build with our employees, clients, shareholders and communities are the foundation of our business. One way we keep these stakeholders at the heart of everything we do is through our commitment to corporate responsibility (CR). It’s infused across our corporate strategy and values, and is an important part of our way ahead.
Corporate Responsibility
Leaving Smaller Footprints
Five years ago, we set aggressive goals for reducing our environmental impact — and we’ve already exceeded them.

Me, Biased?
Language bias. Age bias. Computer bias. Turns out, bias is more common in the workplace than we realized. So how do we move past it? The most important action we can take is to become aware of our unconscious bias and take note of when it crops up in our lives.

Creating Opportunity
Through our charitable arm, the State Street Foundation, we make grants to nonprofits and nongovernmental organizations in 26 countries.
These grants help give children and adults access to better education and new skills to improve their chances in life. We believe it’s the best way to create real change and lasting economic benefits in the communities where we operate.
