        This disclosure statement (the “Statement”) has been prepared by State Street Global Advisors Limited (“SSGAL”), London, United Kingdom, also referred to as (the “Company”) to provide quantitative and qualitative information on the capital adequacy, risk management framework and remuneration practices of the Company. This Statement fulfils the regulatory disclosure requirements set out by the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) in the Prudential Sourcebook for Banks, Building Societies and Investment Firms (“BIPRU”).

        SSGAL is regulated by the FCA that enforces the capital adequacy framework consisting of three pillars in the United Kingdom.

        Pillar 2: addresses a firm’s internal process for assessing overall capital adequacy in relation to its risks. This is also referred to as the Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (“ICAAP”). Pillar 2 further entails the Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process by the FCA; and

        Pillar 3: complements Pillars 1 and 2 and is designed to promote market discipline by providing market participants with key information on a firm’s risk exposure and risk management processes through a set of minimum disclosure requirements. Unless otherwise stated all information in this Statement is based at 31 December 2019 and includes relevant regulatory disclosures for SSGAL in accordance with the rules set out in chapter 11 of BIPRU. Certain information has been omitted from the Statement if, in the opinion of the management of SSGAL, such information is of proprietary nature, price-sensitive, may intrude the privacy of the company’s clients or would not change or influence the assessment or decision of market participants or other users of the Statement.

        The document is updated and published annually. It will, however, be published more frequently if there are significant changes to the business such as changes to the scale of operations, range of activities and presence in different countries or financial sectors.

        This document has been reviewed internally and approved by the Board of SSGAL for publication on the State Street website www.statestreet.com. Copies of the statement are available at company’s main office located at 20 Churchill Place, Canary Wharf, London E14 5HJ.
