State Street Is Waiting a Client Shift

The bank will reportedly use Lukka's back office data management solution purpose-built for blockchain and crypto asset data. With this tool, State Street will use cryptocurrencies within a private client's traditional alternative investments portfolios.

The partnership follows State Street's announcement of a new arm focused on cryptocurrencies. In June, Chakar said that the US custody bank was getting calls from "endowments and foundations" that are getting donations in cryptocurrencies and do not know what to do with it.
