    NEW YORK -- State Street Corp. said Friday that it has added $250 million to the reserve it established in 2007 to address legal exposure related to losses incurred by investors in certain active fixed-income strategies managed by State Street Global Advisors. The company believes the adjusted reserve should be sufficient for a potential resolution of proceedings by the Securities and Exchange Commission and other governmental authorities. The financial-services company also updated its third-quarter earnings per share to 66 cents on income of $327 million.
