The five businesses are State Street Analytics, WM Performance Services, the universe and research services of Intersec, the trade cost analysis of Elkins McSherry and the alternative investment performance and analytics capabilities of Private Edge. All bar the first listed will continue as separate product names, but will be offered under the SSIA banner both singly and packaged together.
