State Street Corp., a Boston-based financial services company, said Thursday that it has been appointed by Emory University to provide risk analytics services for the university’s $5 billion endowment.

Thursday’s appointment expands State Street’s existing relationship with Emory, the company said in a press release.

State Street currently provides Emory with custody, performance, and compliance services.

Now State Street said it will also provide various analytical measures for the endowment in support of the risk management process, including data management and risk measurement and analysis.
