(ACBJ) - State Street Corporation and Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. have agreed to pull the plug on State Street’s long-stalled acquisition of BBH’s investor services business, ending a months-long push to renegotiate a $3.5 billion price tag and restructure a deal that likely faced continued regulatory holdups.
Boston-based financial services giant State Street (NYSE: STT) announced the termination of the deal on Wednesday morning. The move comes after regulators indicated approval would only come after further changes to the transaction, requiring more delays.
