Dow Jones Newswires talked to asset managers and other financial services firms yesterday on whether Irene, which pounded the East Coast over the weekend,  had any impact on their operations.

Legg Mason, which is headquartered in Baltimore and has offices in New York among other cities, said it did not suffer any damage over the weekend and expects to be up and running today.

New York-based BlackRock told the pub that it expects its its East Coast locations --  Boston, Delaware, New York City and Princeton -- to be open today.

Pimco, which is headquartered in Newport Beach, California, said there are no problems with its East Coast operations.
