State Street has launched a new mobile application for the iPad, State Street SpringboardSM, which will be available in the Apple App Store this fall. State Street Springboard allows clients to view essential portfolio information that is specifically designed for mobile users and leverages the content and information from my.statestreet.com, State Street’s online information delivery platform that is the secure, single- client entry point to a full suite of sophisticated market data and analysis applications.
Targeted at executive-level portfolio and fund managers, the initial release of the app includes the ability for users to view their entire investment portfolio at a glance, including risk-exposure analysis, Net Asset Value (NAV) summaries, and fund flows. Clients will also have access to thought leadership, including the Vision series of publications.The current app will serve as a flexible foundation for future updates that will expand on the initial release, provide additional functionality and broaden the content available.

The app will be available to existing State Street clients in the Apple App Store and a State Street client log in will be required for access. State Street will continue to explore other business applications for mobile technologies while it develops additional device and operating system deployment plans for this app.
