State Street has been reappointed by Nest Corporation, the trustee body of the National Employment Savings Trust (Nest), to continue to provide back office servicing solutions for a further five years.
As part of the renewal, State Street will provide global custody, fund accounting, performance measurement, compliance monitoring, asset allocation rebalancing and unit dealing for Nest’s nine million members in the UK.
State Street will manage the movement of members’ contributions from the scheme administrator to the appropriate fund managers.

Henk Michels, director of fund administration at Nest, added: “This is an exciting time for Nest. We continue to expand out into new assets, including private markets such as unlisted infrastructure equity, in the pursuit of the best risk-adjusted returns for our members.
