Investors Bank & Trust

Investors Bank & Trust

Investors Bank & Trust or IBT was a custodian bank, and the principal operating subsidiary of Investors Financial Services Corp., (previously NASDAQ: IFIN), a holding company based in Boston, Massachusetts. First founded in 1969 as an offshoot of Eaton Vance, the company was purchased by State Street Corporation in 2007 as an all-stock deal valued at nearly $4.5 billion and no longer operates as a separate listed company. State Street refers informally to the former IBT operation as "State Street Back Bay".

IBT's headquarters were located within the landmark John Hancock Tower designed by I.M. Pei, where it was chief tenant. Some of IBT's more well-known clients included Aegon, Barclays Global Investors, Eaton Vance, and MassMutual.

Famous quotes containing the words bank and/or trust:

    The English language is like a broad river on whose bank a few patient anglers are sitting, while, higher up, the stream is being polluted by a string of refuse-barges tipping out their muck.
    Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)

    Never trust thine enemy: for like as iron rusteth, so is his wickedness. Though he humble himself and go crouching, yet take good heed and beware of him, and thou shalt be unto him as if thou hadst wiped a looking-glass, and thou shalt know that his rust hath not been altogether wiped away.
    Apocrypha. Ecclesiasticus 12:10-11.
