NEW YORK, November 29, 2018 – Levi & Korsinsky, LLP announces an investigation concerning the fairness of the sale of BSB Bancorp, Inc. (“BSB” or the “Company”) (NASDAQCM: BLMT) to People’s United Financial, Inc. (NASDAQGS: PBCT). Under the terms of the transaction, BSB shareholders will receive 2.0 shares of People’s United stock for each BSB share they own. This represents an approximate value of $32.42 per share.
