US Bancorp Asset Management is part of US Bank’s Wealth Management and Investment Services division, which has more than USD 8.6 trillion in assets under custody and administration and USD 244 billion in assets under management, globally. In addition to offering asset management products and services, it also offers global corporate trust and custody services, alternative investment, fund custody and administration services, and wealth management services.

The deal was signed on July 7 2021 and is expected to close in fourth quarter 2021, subject to regulatory approval and satisfaction of customary closing conditions. Financial terms were not disclosed.
