Fee revenue was flat, primarily reflecting higher market values, net new business and the favorable impact of a weaker U.S. dollar, partially offset by the impact of the Alcentra divestiture, the mix of cumulative AUM flows and lower foreign exchange volatility and volumes. (See “Fee and other revenue” beginning on page 6.)
Net interest revenue increased 10%, primarily reflecting higher interest rates, partially offset by changes in balance sheet size and mix. (See “Net interest revenue” on page 9.)
Provision for credit losses was $3 million, compared with a benefit of $30 million. (See “Consolidated balance sheet review – Allowance for credit losses” beginning on page 29.)
Noninterest expense decreased 16%, primarily related to the third quarter 2022 goodwill impairment associated with the Investment Management reporting unit. Excluding notable items, noninterest expense increased 3% (Non-GAAP), primarily reflecting higher investments and revenue-related expenses, and the unfavorable impact of a weaker U.S. dollar, as well as the impact of inflation, partially offset by the favorable impact of efficiency savings and the impact of the Alcentra divestiture. (See “Noninterest expense” on page 12.)

Resolution plan

As required by the Dodd-Frank Act, the Parent must submit annually to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“Federal Reserve”) and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) a plan for its rapid and orderly resolution in the event of material financial distress or failure. The Parent filed its most recent resolution plan on July 1, 2017. We believe the 2017 resolution plan addresses all shortcomings and deficiencies identified by the FDIC and the Federal Reserve in the Company’s 2015 resolution plan. The public portion of our 2017 resolution plan is available on the Federal Reserve’s and FDIC’s websites.

In September 2017, the Federal Reserve and FDIC extended the filing deadline by one year to July 1, 2019 for the Parent’s next resolution plan.

AUC/A totaled a record $32.2of $45.7 trillion at Sept. 30, 2017 compared with $30.5 trillion at Sept. 30, 2016. The 6% increaseincreased 8%, primarily reflectsreflecting higher market values, client inflows, the favorable impact of a weaker U.S. dollar and net new business. (See “Investment Services business” beginning on page 19.)
AUM totaled a record $1.82of $1.8 trillion at Sept. 30, 2017 compared with $1.72 trillion at Sept. 30, 2016. The 6% increase primarily reflects higher market values, net inflows and the favorable impact of a weaker U.S. dollar (principally versus the British pound).

Investment services fees totaled $1.92 billion, an increase of 1% compared with $1.89 billion in the third quarter of 2016.

Foreign exchange revenue totaled $158 million, a decrease of 10% compared with $175 million in the third quarter of 2016,increased 3%, primarily reflecting lower volatility and lower Depositary Receipt-related foreign exchange activity, partially offset by higher volumes.

The net interest margin (FTE) (Non-GAAP) was 1.16% in the third quarter of 2017 compared with 1.06% in the third quarter of 2016. (See “Net interest revenue” on page 10.)
The provision for credit losses was a credit of $6 million in the third quarter of 2017 and a credit of $19 million in the third quarter of 2016. (See “Asset quality and allowance for credit losses” beginning on page 29.)
Noninterest expense totaled $2.65 billion compared with $2.64 billion in the third quarter of 2016. The increase primarily reflects higher software and professional, legal and other purchased services expenses, partially offset by lower litigation expense and bank assessment charges. (See “Noninterest expense” beginning on page 13.)
The provision for income taxes was $348 million and the effective rate was 25.4% in the third quarter of 2017 compared with an income tax provision of $324 million and an effective tax rate of 24.6% in the third quarter of 2016. (See “Income taxes” on page 14.)

The increase was primarily driven by a decrease in long-term interest rates. (See “Investment securities” beginning on page 25.)
Our CET1 ratio under the Advanced Approach was 11.1% at Sept. 30, 2017 and 10.8% at June 30, 2017. The increase was primarily driven by CET1 generation. Our CET1 ratio under the Standardized Approach was 12.3% at Sept. 30, 2017 and 12.0% at June 30, 2017. (See “Capital” beginning on page 37.)
Our estimated CET1 ratio (Non-GAAP) calculated under the Advanced Approach on a fully phased-in basis was 10.7% at Sept. 30, 2017 and 10.4% at June 30, 2017. The increase primarily reflects CET1 generation.

Net interest revenue increased 10% compared with the third quarter of 2022 and decreased 8% compared with the second quarter of 2017.2023. The increase compared with the third quarter of 2022 primarily reflects higher interest rates, partially offset by changes in balance sheet size and mix. The decrease compared with the second quarter of 2023 primarily reflects changes in balance sheet size and mix, partially offset by higher interest rates.

Net interest margin increased 13 basis points compared with the third quarter of 2022 and decreased 2 basis points compared with the second quarter of 2023. The changes compared with the third quarter of 2022 and the second quarter of 2023 primarily reflect the factors mentioned above.

Average interest-earning assets decreased 4% compared with the third quarter of 2022 and decreased 6% compared with the second quarter of 2023. The decrease compared with the third quarter of 20162022 primarily reflects lower other income driven by increased pre-tax losses on our investments in renewable energysecurities and lower seed capital gains.loan balances and interest-bearing deposits with banks. The pre-tax losses on the renewable energy investments aredecrease was partially offset by corresponding tax benefitshigher interest-bearing deposits with the Federal Reserve and credits recorded as a reduction to the provision for income taxes.other central banks. The decrease compared with the
second quarter of 2017 primarily reflects lease-related gains recorded in the second quarter of 2017 and lower income from corporate/bank-owned life insurance.

Year-to-date 2017 compared with year-to-date 2016

Fee and other revenue increased 2% compared with the first nine months of 2016, primarily reflecting higher investment management and performance fees, clearing services fees and asset servicing fees, partially offset by lower foreign exchange and other trading revenue, net securities gains and issuer services fees. The 5% increase in investment management and performance fees primarily reflects higher market values, money market fees and performance fees, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of a stronger U.S. dollar (principally versus the British pound). The 10% increase in clearing services fees primarily reflects higher money market fees and growth in long-term mutual fund assets. The 2% increase in asset servicing fees primarily reflects net new business, including growth in collateral management and higher equity market values, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of a stronger U.S. dollar and the impact of downsizing the retail UK transfer agency business. The 7% decrease in foreign exchange and other trading revenue2023 primarily reflects lower volatility and lower Depositary Receipts-related foreign exchange activity. The 4% decrease in issuer services fees primarily reflects lower Depositary Receipts revenue.

Noninterest expense decreased 5% primarily related to invest in our risk management, regulatory compliance and other control functions to improve our safety and soundness and in light of increased global regulatory requirements. As a result of the submission of our 2017 resolution plan, we began to experience a modest decrease in the expenses relating to these functions in the third quarter of 2017.

Excluding notable items, noninterest expense in the third quarter of 2017, 56% in the third quarter of 2016 and 53%in the second quarter of 2017.

Staff expense increased slightly compared with the third quarter of 2016 as the annual employee merit increase was offset by lower severance. Staff expense increased 4% (unannualized) compared with the second quarter of 2017, primarily due to higher incentives expense reflecting stronger performance and the annual employee merit increase.

Non-staff expense

Non-staff expense includes certain expenses that vary with the levels of business activity and levels of expensed business investments, fixed infrastructure costs and expenses associated with corporate activities related to technology, compliance, legal, productivity initiatives and business development.

Non-staff expense totaled $1.2 billion, an increase of 1% compared with the third quarter of 2016 and a decrease of 4% (unannualized) compared with the second quarter of 2017. The increase primarily reflects higher software and professional, legal and other purchased services expenses, partially offset by lower litigation expense and bank assessment charges. The decrease primarily reflects lower other, professional, legal and other purchases services and business development expenses as well as lower bank assessment charges. The decrease in professional, legal and other purchased services was driven by lower consulting expense related to resolution planning.

Income taxes


BNY Mellon recorded an income tax provision of $348$241 million (25.4%(18.8% effective tax rate) in the third quarter of 2017. The2023. We recorded an income tax provision was $324of $242 million (24.6% effective tax rate) in the third quarter of 2016 and $3322022. The effective tax rate was 38.4% in the third quarter of 2022, or 19.5% (Non-GAAP) excluding notable items, primarily goodwill impairment. We recorded an income tax provision of $270 million (25.4%(20.2% effective tax rate) in the second quarter of 2017.2023. See “Supplemental information – Explanation of GAAP and Non-GAAP financial measures” beginning on page 43 for the reconciliation of this Non-GAAP measure. For additional information, see Note 1011 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

We expect the effective tax rate to be approximately 25-26% in 2017 based on current income tax rates. Based on our expected revenue growth as well as the mix of earnings we project for next year, we expect our effective tax rate may rise approximately 100 basis points in 2018.

Any legislation affecting income tax rates could have an impact on our future effective tax rate, the significance of which would depend on the timing, nature and scope of any such legislation, as well as the level and composition of our earnings.

Review of businessesbusiness segments


We have an internal information system that produces performance data along product and service lines for our twothree principal businessesbusiness segments: Securities Services, Market and Wealth Services and Investment and Wealth Management, and the Other segment.


Business segment accounting principles


Our business segment data has been determined on an internal management basis of accounting, rather than the generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) used for consolidated financial reporting. These measurement principles are designed so that reported results of the businesses will track their economic performance.


For information on the accounting principles of our businesses,business segments, see Note 19 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. For information on the primary products and services in each line of business, the primary types of revenue by line of business and how our businessesbusiness segments are presented and analyzed, see Note 1824 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.Statements in our 2022 Annual Report.


Business segment results are subject to reclassification when organizational changes are made, or when improvementsfor refinements in revenue and expense allocation methodologies. Refinements are madetypically reflected on a prospective basis. There were no reclassification or organizational changes in the measurement principles.third quarter of 2023.


The results of our businessesbusiness segments may be influenced by client and other activities that vary by quarter. In the first quarter, incentivesstaff expense typically increases, reflecting the vesting of long-term stock awards for retirement-eligible employees. In the thirdsecond quarter, Depositary Receipts revenue isstaff expense typically higher due to an increased level of client dividend payments. Also inincreases, reflecting the annual employee merit increase. In the
third quarter, volume-related fees may decline due to reduced client activity. In the third quarter, staff expense typically increases reflecting the annual employee merit increase. In the fourth quarter, we typically incur higher business development and marketing expenses. In our Investment and Wealth Management business segment, performance fees are typically higher in the fourth quarter,and first quarters, as the fourth quarter representsthose quarters represent the end of the measurement period for many of the performance fee-eligible relationships.


The results of our businessesbusiness segments may also be impacted by the translation of financial results denominated in foreign currencies to the U.S. dollar. We are primarily impacted by activities denominated in the British pound and the euro. On a consolidated basis and in our InvestmentSecurities Services and Market and Wealth Services business segments, we typically have more foreign currency denominatedcurrency-denominated expenses than revenues. However, our Investment


14 BNY Mellon


and Wealth Management business segment typically has more foreign currency denominatedcurrency-denominated revenues than expenses. Overall, currency fluctuations impact the year-over-year growth rate in the Investment and Wealth Management
business segment more than the InvestmentSecurities Services business.and Market and Wealth Services business segments. However, currency fluctuations, in isolation, are not expected to significantly impact net income on a consolidated basis.

Business segment description


Our Investment ManagementThe Securities Services business segment consists of our affiliated investment management boutiques, Wealth Managementtwo distinct lines of business, Asset Servicing and global distribution companies. See pages 19 and 20 of our 2016 Annual Report for additional information on our Investment Management business.

Review of financial results

AUM increased 6% compared with Sept. 30, 2016 primarily reflecting higher market values, net inflows and the favorable impact of the weaker U.S. dollar (principally versus the British pound). The increase compared with June 30, 2017 primarily reflects the favorable impact of the weaker U.S. dollar (principally versus the British pound), higher market values and net inflows.

Net long-term inflows of fixed income and multi-asset and alternative investments were offset by outflows of index, equity and liability-driven investments in the third quarter of 2017. Net short-term inflows of $10 billion in the third quarter of 2017 were a result of increased distribution through our liquidity portals. Market and regulatory trends have driven investable assets toward investments in lower fee asset management products,Issuer Services, which negatively impacted our investment management fees.

Total revenue increased 4% compared with the third quarter of 2016 and 1% (unannualized) compared with the second quarter of 2017. Both increases primarily reflect higher investment management and performance fees.

Revenue generated in the Investment Managementprovide business included 41% from non-U.S. sources in the


BNY Mellon 17


third quarter of 2017, compared with 40% in both the third quarter of 2016 and second quarter of 2017.

Investment management fees in the Investment Management business increased 4% compared with the third quarter of 2016 and 3% (unannualized) compared with the second quarter of 2017. Both increases primarily reflect higher equity market values and money market fees. The increase compared with the second quarter of 2017 also reflects the favorable impact of a weaker U.S. dollar.

Distribution and servicing fees increased compared with the third quarter of 2016 primarily reflecting higher money market fees.

Other revenue decreased compared with the third quarter of 2016 primarily reflecting higher payments to Investment Services related to higher money market fees.

Net interest revenue was unchanged compared with the third quarter of 2016 and decreased 6% (unannualized) compared with the second quarter of 2017. The decrease primarily reflects lower average deposits. Average loans increased 9% compared with the third quarter of 2016 and 1% compared with the second quarter of 2017. Average deposits decreased 21% compared with the third quarter of 2016 and 17% compared with the second quarter of 2017.

Noninterest expense, excluding amortization of intangible assets, increased 1% compared with the third quarter of 2016 and 1% (unannualized) compared with the second quarter of 2017. The increase compared with the third quarter of 2016 primarily reflects higher other and distribution and servicing expenses, partially offset by lower severance expense. The increase compared with the second quarter of 2017 primarily reflects higher distribution and servicing expense.

Year-to-date 2017 compared with year-to-date 2016

Income before taxes increased 22% compared with the first nine months of 2016, primarily reflecting revenue growth of 6%, partially offset by a 1% increase in noninterest expense, excluding amortization of intangible assets. Fee and other revenue increased 6% primarily reflecting higher investment management and performance fees. The increase in investment management and performance fees primarily reflects higher market values, money market fees and performance fees, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of a stronger U.S. dollar (principally versus the British pound). Net interest revenue increased 3% primarily due to higher interest rates and average loans, partially offset by lower average deposits. Noninterest expense, excluding amortization of intangible assets, increased 1% primarily reflecting higher incentives expense, driven by stronger performance, partially offset by the favorable impact of a stronger U.S. dollar (principally versus the British pound).

Review of financial results

AUM increased 3% compared with Sept. 30, 2022, primarily reflecting the favorable impact of a weaker
U.S. dollar and higher market values, partially offset by the divestiture of Alcentra.

Net long-term strategy outflows were $15 billion in the third quarter of 2023, driven by fixed income, multi-asset and alternative investments and equity investments. Short-term strategy inflows were $7 billion in the third quarter of 2023. Market and regulatory trends have resulted in increased demand for lower fee asset management products and for performance-based fees.

Total revenue of $827 million decreased 4% compared with the third quarter of 20162022 and increased 4% (unannualized)2% compared with the second quarter of 2017.2023.

Noninterest expense decreased $5 million compared with the third quarter of 2022 and $47 million compared with the second quarter of 2023. The decrease compared with the second quarter of 20172023 primarily reflects lease-related gains recorded in the second quarter of 2017 and lower income from corporate/bank-owned life insurance, partially offset by higher net securities gains.

Net interest expense decreased $3 million compared with the third quarter of 2016 and $2 million compared with the second quarter of 2017. Both decreases primarily reflect higher interest rates.

Noninterest expense, excluding M&I and restructuring charges, decreased $11 million compared with the third quarter of 2016 and increased $49 million compared with the second quarter of 2017. The decrease was primarily driven by lower litigation and other expenses. The increase was primarily driven by higher staff expense resulting from a methodology change in the second quarter of 2017 for allocating employee benefits expense to the business segments with no impact to consolidated results. The increase was partially offset by lower other and professional, legal and other purchased services expenses.

Critical accounting estimates


Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 20162022 Annual Report. Our critical accounting estimates are those related to the allowance for loancredit losses, and allowance for lending-related commitments, fair value of financial instruments and derivatives, other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”), goodwill and other intangibles and pension accounting,litigation and regulatory contingencies, as referenced below.

Goodwill and other intangibles

BNY Mellon’s business segments include six reporting units for which goodwill impairment testing is performed on an annual basis. An interim test is performed when events or circumstances occur that may indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of any reporting unit may be less than its carrying value.

In the third quarter of 2023, due to the results of the second quarter 2023 interim goodwill impairment test and macroeconomic conditions, we performed an interim goodwill impairment test of the Investment Management reporting unit, which had $6.0 billion of allocated goodwill. The fair value of the Investment Management reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by approximately 2%. We determined the fair value of the Investment Management reporting unit using an income approach based on management’s projections as of Sept. 30, 2023. The discount rate applied to these cash flows was 10.5%.

As of Sept. 30, 2023, if the discount rate applied to the estimated cash flows was increased or decreased by 25 basis points, the fair value of the Investment Management reporting unit would decrease or increase by 4%, respectively. Similarly, if the long-term growth rate was increased or decreased by 10 basis points, the fair value of the Investment Management reporting unit would increase or decrease by approximately 1%, respectively.

Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is subject to uncertainty as it is reliant on estimates of cash flows that extend far into the future, and, by their nature, are difficult to estimate over such an extended time frame. In the future, changes in the assumptions or the discount rate could produce a material non-cash goodwill impairment.

Consolidated balance sheet review


One of our key risk management objectives is to maintain a balance sheet that remains strong throughout market cycles to meet the expectations of our major stakeholders, including our shareholders, clients, creditors and regulators.


We also seek to ensure that theundertake overall liquidity risk, including intra-dayintraday liquidity risk, that we undertake stays within our risk appetite. The objective of our balance sheet management strategy is to maintain a balance sheet that is characterized by strong liquidity and asset quality, ready access to external funding sources at competitive rates and a strong capital structure that supports our risk-taking activities and is adequate to absorb potential losses. In managing the balance sheet, appropriate consideration is given to balancing the competing needs of maintaining sufficient levels of liquidity and complying with applicable regulations and supervisory expectations while optimizing profitability.

In the discussion of our investment securities portfolio, we have included certain credit ratings information because the information can indicate the degree of credit risk to which we are exposed. Significant changes in ratings classifications for our investment securities portfolio could indicate increased credit risk for us and could be accompanied by an increase in the allowance for credit losses and/or a reduction in the fair value of our investment securities portfolio.

On a quarterly basis, we perform our impairment analysis using several factors, including projected loss severities and default rates. In the third quarter of 2017, this analysis resulted in other-than-temporary credit losses of $1 million primarily in our non-agency RMBS portfolio. At Sept. 30, 2017, if we were to increase or decrease each of our projected loss severity and default rates by 100 basis points on each of the positions in our non-agency RMBS
portfolio, including the securities previously held by the Grantor Trust, credit-related impairment charges on these securities would have increased or decreased by less than $1 million (pre-tax). See Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the projected weighted-average default rates and loss severities.

The following table shows the fair value of the European floating rate notespre-tax net securities gains (losses) by geographical location at Sept. 30, 2017. The net unrealized loss on these securities was $6 million at Sept. 30, 2017, compared with $11 million at Dec. 31, 2016.

Financial institution exposures are high-quality,high quality, with 93%94% of the exposures meeting the investment grade equivalent criteria of our internal credit rating classification at Sept. 30, 2017.2023. Each customer is assigned an internal credit rating, which is mapped to
an equivalent external rating agency grade based upon a number of dimensions, which are continually evaluated and may change over time. The exposure to financial institutions is generally short-term. Of these exposures, 86% expire within one year and 61% expire within 90 days. In addition, 80% of the financial institutions exposure is secured. For example, securities industry clients and asset managers often borrow against marketable securities held in custody.

Net recoveries were $1The provision for credit losses was $3 million in the third quarter of 2017 and second quarter2023, compared with a benefit of 2017. Net recoveries in the third quarter of 2016 of $13 million were recorded in the financial institutions portfolio.

The provision for credit losses was a credit of $6$30 million in the third quarter of 2017, a credit of $7 million in the second quarter of 2017 and a credit of $19 million in the third quarter of 2016.2022.

The total allowance for credit losses was $265 million at Sept. 30, 2017, $281 million at Dec. 31, 2016 and $274 million at Sept. 30, 2016. The ratio of the total allowance for credit losses to non-margin loans was 0.59% at Sept. 30, 2017, 0.60% at Dec. 31, 2016 and 0.57% at Sept. 30, 2016. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to non-margin loans was 0.36% at Sept. 30, 2017, 0.36% at Dec. 31, 2016 and 0.31% at Sept. 30, 2016.

We had $13.9 billion of secured margin loans on our balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2017 compared with $17.6 billion at Dec. 31, 2016 and $17.6 billion at Sept. 30, 2016. We have rarely suffered a loss on these types of loans and do not allocate any of our allowance for credit losses to them. As a result, we believe that the ratio of total allowance for credit losses as a percentage of non-margin loans is a more appropriate metric to measure the adequacy of the reserve.


The allowance for loan losses and the allowance for lending-related commitments represent
management’s estimate of probablelifetime expected losses inherent in our credit portfolio. This evaluation process is subject to numerous estimates and judgments. For additional information on this process, see “Critical
accounting estimates” in our 2016 Annual Report. To the extent actual results differ from forecasts or management’s judgment, the allowance for credit losses may be greater or less than future charge-offs.

TheOur allowance for credit ratinglosses is sensitive to a number of inputs, most notably the credit ratings assigned to each borrower, as well as macroeconomic forecast assumptions that are incorporated into our estimate of credit is a significant variablelosses through the expected life of the loan portfolio. Thus, as the macroeconomic environment and related forecasts change, the allowance for credit losses may change materially. The following sensitivity analyses do not represent management’s expectations of the deterioration of our portfolios or the economic environment, but are provided as hypothetical scenarios to assess the sensitivity of the allowance for credit losses to changes in determining the allowance.key inputs.

Nonperforming assets decreased $13 million compared with Dec. 31, 2016, primarily reflecting lower other residential mortgages and lease financings.

The nonperforming assets ratio was 0.16% at Sept. 30, 2017, 0.16% at June 30, 2017 and 0.17% at Dec. 31, 2016. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans was 178.9% at Sept. 30, 2017, 171.9% at June 30, 2017 and 164.1% at Dec. 31, 2016. The ratio of the total2023 allowance for credit losses to nonperforming loans was 294.4%consisted of three scenarios. The baseline scenario reflects slightly negative GDP growth through the fourth quarter of 2023 before moderating, slightly rising unemployment and declining commercial real estate prices through the end of 2024. The upside scenario reflects faster GDP growth, slightly declining unemployment and higher commercial real estate prices compared with the baseline. The downside
scenario contemplates negative GDP growth through the second quarter of 2024 with subsequent stabilization, as well as rapidly increasing unemployment through 2024 and sharply lower commercial real estate prices than the baseline. In the third quarter of 2023, we placed the most weight on our downside scenario, followed by the baseline scenario, with the remaining weighting placed on the upside scenario. From a sensitivity perspective, at Sept. 30, 2017, 281.3%2023, if we had applied 100% weighting to the downside scenario, the allowance for credit losses would have been approximately $83 million higher.

Short-term borrowings


We fund ourselves primarily through deposits and, to a lesser extent, other short-term borrowings and long-term debt. Short-term borrowings consist of federal funds purchased and securities sold under repurchase agreements, payables to customers and broker-dealers, commercial paper and other borrowed funds. Certain othershort-term borrowings, for example, securities sold under repurchase agreements, require the delivery of securities as collateral.


See “Liquidity and dividends” for a discussion of long-term debt and liquidity metrics that we monitor.

Overdrafts typically relate to timing differences for settlements. The increase in other borrowed funds balances compared with both prior periods primarily reflects borrowings from the FHLB. The increase compared with Sept. 30, 2016 also reflects an increase in capital lease obligations as a result of converting an operating lease to a capital lease.

Liquidity and dividends


BNY Mellon defines liquidity as the ability of the Parent and its subsidiaries to access funding or convert assets to cash quickly and efficiently, or to rolloverroll over or issue new debt, especially during periods of market stress, at a reasonable cost, and in order to meet its short-term (up to one year) obligations. Funding liquidity risk is the risk that BNY Mellon cannot meet its cash and collateral obligations at a reasonable cost for both expected and unexpected cash flow and collateral needs without adversely affecting daily operations or our financial condition. Funding liquidity risk can arise from funding mismatches, market constraints from the inability to convert assets tointo cash, the inability to hold or raise cash, low overnight deposits, deposit run-off or contingent liquidity events.


We also manage liquidity risks on an intra-day basis. Intraday liquidity risk is the risk that BNY Mellon cannot access funds during the business day to make payments or settle immediate obligations, usually in real time. Intraday liquidity risk can arise from timing mismatches, market constraints from an inability to convert assets to cash, an inability to raise cash intraday, low overnight deposits and/or adverse stress events.
Changes in economic conditions or exposure to credit, market, operational, legal and reputational risks also can affect BNY Mellon’s liquidity risk profile and are considered in our liquidity risk framework. For additional information, see “Risk Management – Liquidity Risk” in our 2022 Annual Report.


The Parent’s policy is to have access to sufficient unencumbered cash and cash equivalents at each quarter-end to cover maturities and other forecasted debt redemptions, net interest payments and net tax payments for the following 18-month period, and to provide sufficient collateral to satisfy transactions subject to Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act. As of Sept. 30, 2017,2023, the Parent was in compliance with this policy. For additional information

We monitor and control liquidity exposures and funding needs within and across significant legal entities, branches, currencies and business lines, taking into account, among other factors, any applicable restrictions on ourthe transfer of liquidity policy, see “Risk Management - Liquidity risk” in our 2016 Annual Report.

Sources of liquidity


In the second quarter of 2017, we entered into a support agreement with certain key subsidiaries to facilitate the provision of capital and liquidity resources in the event of material financial distress or failure. Pursuant to the support agreement, the Parent transferred its intercompany loans and most of its cash to our intermediate holding company (“IHC”), and will continue to transfer cash and other liquid financial assets to the IHC, subject to certain amounts retained by the Parent to meet its near-term cash needs. In connection with the initial transfer, the IHC issued unsecured subordinated funding notes to the Parent. The IHC has also provided the Parent with a committed line of credit that allows the Parent to draw funds necessary to service near-term obligations. The Parent’s and the IHC’s obligations under the support agreement are secured.
The Parent’s three major sources of liquidity are access to the debt and equity markets, dividends from its subsidiaries, and cash on hand and cash otherwise made available in business-as-usual circumstances to the Parent through a committed credit facility with our IHC.

The Parent had cash of $416 million at Sept. 30, 2017, compared with $8.7 billion at Dec. 31, 2016, a decrease of $8.3 billion, primarily reflecting the transfer of cash to the IHC pursuant to the support agreement.intermediate holding company (“IHC”).

The double leverage ratio is the ratio of our equity investment in subsidiaries divided by our consolidated parentParent company equity, which includes our noncumulative perpetual preferred stock. In short, the double leverage ratio measures the extent to which equity in subsidiaries is financed by Parent company debt. As the double leverage ratio increases, this can reflect greater demands on a company’s cash flows in order to service interest payments and debt maturities. BNY Mellon’s double leverage ratio is managed in a range considering the

Our common stock dividend payout ratio was 23%35% for the first nine monthsthird quarter of 2017. The Federal Reserve’s instructions for the 2017 CCAR provided that, for large bank holding companies like us, dividend payout ratios exceeding 30% of after-tax net income would receive particularly close scrutiny.2023.


In the third quarter of 2017,2023, we repurchased 1210.0 million common shares at an average price of $52.74$45.03 per common share, for a total cost of $650$450 million.


Liquidity coverage ratio (“LCR”)


U.S. regulators have established an LCR that requires certain banking organizations, including BNY Mellon, to maintain a minimum amount of unencumbered high qualityhigh-quality liquid assets (“HQLA”) sufficient to withstand the net cash outflow under a hypothetical standardized acute liquidity stress scenario for a 30-day time horizon.


The following table presents theBNY Mellon’s consolidated HQLA, at Sept. 30, 2017, and the average HQLA and average LCRLCR.

The U.S. LCR rule became fully phased-in on Jan. 1, 2017 and requires BNY Mellon and each of our affected domestic bank subsidiaries to meet anwere compliant with the U.S. LCR requirements of at least 100%. throughout the third quarter of 2023.

Net stable funding ratio (“NSFR”)

The LCRNSFR is a liquidity requirement applicable to large U.S. banking organizations, including BNY Mellon. The NSFR is expressed as a ratio of the available stable funding to the required stable funding amount over a one-year horizon. Our average consolidated NSFR was 136% for the third quarter of 2023 and 136% for the second quarter of 2023.

BNY Mellon and each of our affected domestic bank subsidiaries waswere compliant with the U.S. LCR requirements forNSFR requirement of at least 100% throughout the third quarter of 2017. For additional information on the LCR, see “Supervision and Regulation - Liquidity Standards - Basel III and U.S. Rules and Proposals” in our 2016 Annual Report.

We also perform liquidity stress tests to evaluate whether the Company maintains sufficient liquidity resources under multiple stress scenarios. Stress tests are based on scenarios that measure liquidity risks under unlikely but plausible conditions. We perform these tests under various time horizons ranging from one day to one year in a base case, as well as supplemental tests to determine whether the Company’s liquidity is sufficient for severe market events and firm-specific events. Under our scenario testing program, the results of the tests indicate that the Company has sufficient liquidity.

As part of our resolution planning, we monitor, among other measures, our Resolution Liquidity Adequacy and Positioning (“RLAP”).  The RLAP methodologies are designed to ensure that the liquidity needs of certain key subsidiaries in a stress environment can be met by available resources held at the entity or at the Parent or IHC, as applicable.

Statement of cash flows


The following summarizes the activity reflected on the consolidated statement of cash flows. While this information may be helpful to highlight certain macro trends and business strategies, the cash flow analysis may not be as relevant when analyzing changes in our net earnings and net assets.

BNY Mellon 37



The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation total shareholders’ equity increased to $40.5$41.0 billion at Sept. 30, 20172023 from $38.8$40.7 billion at Dec. 31, 2016.2022. The increase primarily reflects earnings, foreign currency translation adjustments, $638 million resulting from stock awards, the exercise of stock options and stock issued for employee benefit plans, and the unrealized gain in our investment securities portfolio, partially offset by share repurchasescommon stock repurchase activity and dividends.


The unrealized gain, net of tax,loss (after-tax) on our available-for-sale investment securities portfolio, recordednet of hedges, included in accumulated other comprehensive income was $226 million$2.3 billion at Sept. 30, 2017,2023, compared with $45 million$2.4 billion at Dec. 31, 2016. The increase in2022. Net unrealized loss, including the unrealized gain, netimpact of tax, was primarily drivenhedges, decreased as securities moved closer to maturity, partially offset by a decrease in long-termthe impact of higher interest rates.


Our 2017 capital plan, submitted in connection with our CCAR, included the authorization to repurchase an average of $650 million of common stock each quarter starting in the third quarter of 2017 and continuing through the second quarter of 2018. In the third quarterfirst nine months of 2017,2023, we repurchased 1245.8 million common shares at an average price of $52.74$47.06 per common share for a total cost of $650 million.$2.2 billion.


Also included inIn January 2023, we announced a share repurchase program approved by our Board of Directors providing for the 2017 capitalrepurchase of up to $5.0 billion of common shares beginning Jan. 1, 2023. This new share repurchase plan wasreplaced all previously authorized share repurchase plans.

In July 2023, our Board of Directors approved a 26%14% increase in the quarterly cash dividend on common stock, from $0.34 to $0.24$0.42 per common share. The first payment of the increased quarterly cash dividend was madepaid on Aug. 11, 2017.10, 2023.


Capital adequacy


Regulators establish certain levels of capital for bank holding companies (“BHCs”) and banks, including BNY Mellon and our bank subsidiaries, in accordance with established quantitative measurements. For the Parent to maintain its status as a financial holding company, our U.S. bank subsidiaries and BNY Mellon must, among other things, qualify as “well capitalized.”

As of Sept. 30, 20172023 and Dec. 31, 2016, 2022, BNY Mellon and our U.S. bank subsidiaries were “well capitalized.”

Failure to satisfy regulatory standards, including “well capitalized” status or capital adequacy rules more generally, could result in limitations on our activities and adversely affect our financial condition. See the discussion of these matters in “Supervision and Regulation - Regulated Entities of BNY Mellon and Ancillary Regulatory Requirements” and “Risk Factors - Operational– Capital and Liquidity Risk - Failure to satisfy regulatory standards, including “well capitalized” and “well managed” status or capital adequacy and liquidity rules more generally, could result in limitations on our activities and adversely affect our business and financial condition”condition,” both of which are in our 20162022 Annual Report.

The “well capitalized” and other capital categories (where applicable), as established by applicable regulations for bank holding companies and depository institutions, have been established by those regulations solely for purposes of implementing their respective requirements (for example, eligibility for financial holding company status in the case of bank holding companies and prompt corrective action measures in the case of depository institutions). A bank holding company’s or depository institution’s qualification for a capital category may not constitute an accurate representation of the entity’s overall financial condition or prospects.


The U.S. banking agencies’ capital rules are based on the framework adopted by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, as amended from time to time. For additional information on these capital requirements, see “Supervision and Regulation” in our 20162022 Annual Report.
36 BNY Mellon is subject to the U.S. capital rules, which are being gradually phased-in over a multi-year period through 2018.

Our estimated CET1 and SLR ratios on a fully phased-in basis are based on our current interpretation of the U.S. capital rules. Our risk-based capital adequacy is determined using the higher of risk-weighted assets (“RWAs”) determined using the Advanced Approach and Standardized Approach.

(b)
For our CET1, Tier 1 capital and Total capital ratios, our effective capital ratios under U.S. capital rules are the lower of the ratios as calculated under the Standardized and Advanced Approaches. The leverage capital ratio is based on Tier 1 capital, as phased-in and quarterly average total assets.

Fully phased-in Basel III minimum with expected buffers. See page 41 for the capital ratios with the phase-in of the capital conservation buffer and the U.S. G-SIB surcharge, as well as the introduction of the SLR buffer.


Our CET1 ratio determined under the Advanced Approach was 11.1% at Sept. 30, 2017 and 10.6% at Dec. 31, 2016. The increase primarily reflects CET1 generation, partially offset by the additional phase-in requirements under the U.S. capital rules that became effective Jan. 1, 2017.

Our estimated CET1 ratio (Non-GAAP) calculated under the Advanced Approach on a fully phased-in basis was 10.7% at Sept. 30, 2017 and 9.7% at Dec. 31, 2016. The increase primarily reflects CET1 generation. Our estimated CET1 ratio (Non-GAAP) calculated under the Standardized Approach on a
fully phased-in basis was 11.9% at Sept. 30, 2017 and 11.3% at Dec. 31, 2016.

The estimated fully phased-in SLR (Non-GAAP) of 6.1% at Sept. 30, 2017 and 5.6% at Dec. 31, 2016 was based on our interpretation of the U.S. capital rules, as supplemented by the Federal Reserve’s final rules on the SLR. BNY Mellon will be subject to an enhanced SLR, which will require a buffer in excess of 2% over the minimum SLR of 3%. The insured depository institution subsidiaries of the U.S. global systemically important banks (“G-SIBs”G-SIB”) surcharge is 1.5%. The countercyclical capital buffer is currently set to 0%. The stress capital buffer (“SCB”) requirement is 2.5%, including
equal to the regulatory minimum for Standardized Approach capital ratios.

N/A – Not applicable.


Our CET1 ratio under the Advanced Approaches was 11.4% at Sept. 30, 2023 and 11.2% at Dec. 31, 2022. The increase was primarily driven by capital generated through earnings and lower RWAs, partially offset by capital deployed through common stock repurchases and dividends.

The Advanced ApproachTier 1 leverage ratio was 6.1% at Sept. 30, 2023 and 5.8% at Dec. 31, 2022. The increase primarily reflects lower average assets.

Risk-based capital ratios vary depending on the size of the balance sheet at period end and the levels and types of investments in assets, and leverage ratios vary based on the average size of the balance sheet over the quarter. The balance sheet size fluctuates from period to period based on levels of customer and market activity. In general, when servicing clients are more actively trading securities, deposit balances and the balance sheet as a whole are higher. In addition, when markets experience significant
volatility or stress, our balance sheet size may increase considerably as client deposit levels increase.

Our capital ratios are significantly impactednecessarily subject to, among other things, anticipated compliance with all necessary enhancements to model calibration, approval by RWAs for operational risk. Ourregulators of certain models used as part of RWA calculations, other refinements, further implementation guidance from regulators, market practices and standards and any changes BNY Mellon may make to its businesses. As a consequence of these factors, our capital ratios may materially change, and may be volatile over time and from period to period.

Under the Advanced Approaches, our operational loss risk model is informed by external losses, including fines and penalties levied against institutions in the financial services industry, particularly those that relate to businesses in which we operate, and as a result, external losses have impacted and could in the

future impact the amount of capital that we are required to hold.


Management views the estimated fully phased-in CET1 and other risk-based capital ratios and SLR as key measures in monitoring BNY Mellon’s capital position and progress against future regulatory capital standards. Additionally, the presentation of the estimated fully phased-in CET1 and other risk-based capital ratios and SLR are intended to allow investors to compare these ratios with estimates presented by other companies.

Our capital ratios are necessarily subject to, among other things, anticipated compliance with all necessary enhancements to model calibration, approval by regulators of certain models used as part of RWA calculations, further implementation guidance from regulators, market practices and standards and any changes BNY Mellon may make to its businesses. As a consequence of these factors, our capital ratios may materially change, and may be volatile over time and from period to period.

Minimum capital ratios and capital buffers

The U.S. capital rules include a series of buffers and surcharges over required minimums that apply to bank holding companies, including BNY Mellon, which are being phased-in over time. Banking organizations with a risk-based ratio or SLR above the minimum required level, but with a risk-based ratio or SLR below the minimum level with buffers
will face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases and discretionary executive compensation based on the amount of the shortfall. Different regulatory capital minimums, buffers and surcharges apply to our banking subsidiaries.

The U.S. capital rules introduced a capital conservation buffer and countercyclical capital buffer that add to the minimum regulatory capital ratios. The capital conservation buffer–1.25% for 2017 and 2.5% when fully phased-in on Jan. 1, 2019–is designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress and applies to all banking organizations. During periods of excessive growth, the capital conservation buffer may be expanded through the imposition of a countercyclical capital buffer that may be as high as an additional 2.5%. The countercyclical capital buffer, when applicable, applies only to Advanced Approach banking organizations. The countercyclical capital buffer is currently set to zero with respect to U.S. exposures, but it could increase if the banking agencies determine that systemic vulnerabilities are meaningfully above normal.

BNY Mellon is subject to an additional G-SIB surcharge, which is implemented as an extension of the capital conservation buffer and must be satisfied with CET1 capital. For 2017, the G-SIB surcharge applicable to BNY Mellon is 0.75%, and, when fully phased-in on Jan. 1, 2019, as calculated, applying metrics as currently applicable to BNY Mellon, would be 1.5%.

Stress capital buffer

In July 2023, the Federal Reserve announced that BNY Mellon’s SCB requirement would remain at 2.5%, equal to the regulatory floor, for the period from Oct. 1, 2023 through Sept. 30, 2024. The SCB replaced the static 2.5% capital conservation buffer for Standardized Approach capital ratios vary depending onfor CCAR BHCs. The SCB does not apply to bank subsidiaries, which remain subject to the sizestatic 2.5% capital conservation buffer. See “Supervision and Regulation” in our 2022 Annual Report for additional information.

The SCB final rule generally eliminates the requirement for prior approval of common stock repurchases in excess of the balance sheet at quarter-enddistributions in a firm’s capital plan, provided that such distributions are consistent with applicable capital requirements and buffers, including the levelsSCB.

(b)The estimated fully phased-in SLR (Non-GAAP) is based on our interpretation of the U.S. capital rules. When the SLR is fully phased-in in 2018 as a required minimum ratio, we expect to maintain an SLR of over 5%. The minimum required SLR is 3% and there is a 2% buffer, in addition to the minimum, that is applicable to U.S. G-SIBs. The insured depository institution subsidiaries of the U.S. G-SIBs, including those of BNY Mellon, must maintain a 6% SLR to be considered “well-capitalized.”


Trading activities and risk management


Our trading activities are focused on acting as a market-maker for our customers, facilitating customer trades and risk mitigatingrisk-mitigating hedging in compliance with the Volcker Rule. The risk from market-making activities for customers is managed by our traders and limited in total exposure through a system of position limits, value-at-risk (“VaR”) methodology and other market sensitivity measures. VaR is the potential loss in value due to adverse market movements over a defined time horizon with a specified confidence level. The calculation of our VaR used by management and presented below assumes a one-day holding period, utilizes a 99% confidence level and incorporates non-linear product characteristics. VaR facilitates comparisons across portfolios of different risk characteristics. VaR also captures the
diversification of aggregated risk at the firm widefirm-wide level.


BNY Mellon 39



VaR represents a key risk management measure, and it is important to note the inherent limitations to VaR, which include:

VaR does not estimate potential losses over longer time horizons where moves may be extreme;
VaR does not take into account ofthe potential variability of market liquidity; and
Previous moves in market risk factors may not produce accurate predictions of all future market moves.


See Note 1617 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the VaR methodology.



44 BNY Mellon


In an effort to improve our enterprise level risk management capabilities, we have changed our VaR model from Monte Carlo simulation to historical simulation for both management and RWA calculations. This change was effective as of Jan. 1, 2017. In addition to this model enhancement, the impact of credit valuation adjustment (“CVA”) is now included.

Asset/liability management


Our diversified business activities include processing securities, accepting deposits, investing in securities, lending, raising money as needed to fund assets and other transactions. The market risks from these activities areinclude interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk. Our primary market risk is exposure to movements in U.S. dollar interest rates and certain foreign currency interest rates. We actively manage interest rate sensitivity and use earnings simulation and discounted cash flow models to identify interest rate exposures.


BNY Mellon 41



An earnings simulation model is the primary tool used to assess changes in pre-tax net interest revenue. revenue between a baseline scenario and hypothetical interest rate scenarios. Interest rate sensitivity is quantified by calculating the change in pre-tax net interest revenue between the scenarios over a 12-month measurement period.

The modelbaseline scenario incorporates the market’s forward rate expectations and management’s assumptions regarding interestclient deposit rates, balance changes on core deposits, marketcredit spreads, changes in the prepayment behavior of loans and securities and the impact of
derivative financial instruments used for interest rate risk management purposes.purposes as of each respective quarter-end. These assumptions have been developed through a combination of historical analysis and future expected pricing behavior and are inherently uncertain. As a result, the earnings simulation model cannot precisely estimate net interest revenue or the impact of higher or lower interest rates on net interest revenue. Actual results may differ materially from projected results due to timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes, and changes in market conditions and management’s strategies, among other factors. Client deposit levels and mix are key assumptions impacting net interest revenue in the baseline as well as the hypothetical interest rate scenarios. The earnings simulation model assumes static deposit levels and mix, and it also assumes that no management actions will be taken to mitigate the effects of interest rate changes. Typically, the baseline scenario uses the average deposit balances of the quarter.


TheIn the table below, relies on certain critical assumptions regardingwe use the balance sheet and depositors’ behavior relatedearnings simulation model to interest rate fluctuations and the prepayment and extension risk in certain of our assets. Generally, there has been an inverse relationship between interest rates and client deposit levels. To the extent that actual behavior is different from that assumed in the models, there could be a change in interest rate sensitivity.

We evaluate the effect on earnings by running various interest rate ramp scenarios from a baseline scenario. The interest rate ramp scenarios are reviewed to examineassess the impact of largevarious hypothetical interest rate movements.scenarios compared to the baseline scenario. In each scenario,of the scenarios, all currenciescurrencies’ interest rates are instantaneously shifted higher or lower. Interestlower at the start of the forecast. Long-term interest rates are defined as all tenors equal to or greater than three years and short-term interest rates are defined as all tenors equal to or less than three months. Interim term points are interpolated where applicable. The impact of interest rate sensitivity is quantified by calculatingshifts may not be linear. The results of this earnings simulation should therefore not be extrapolated for more severe interest rate scenarios than those presented in the change in pre-tax net interest revenue between the scenarios over a 12-month measurement period.

methodology as of Dec. 31, 2016 as we believe usingWhile the spot yield curve for the baseline scenario provides a more accurate reflection of net interest revenue sensitivity given the recent increasescenario calculations assume static deposit balances to facilitate consistent period-over-period comparisons, net interest revenue is impacted by changes in deposit balances. Noninterest-bearing deposits are particularly sensitive to changes in short-term interest rates andrates.

To illustrate the implied forward rates. Because interest rates and the implied forward yield curves were lower in prior periods, the impact of using a

spot yield curve versus an implied forward yield curve was not as significant. The 100 basis point ramp scenario assumes rates increase 25 basis points above the yield curve in each of the next four quarters and the 200 basis point ramp scenario assumes a 50 basis point per quarter increase.

Our net interest revenue sensitivity table above incorporates assumptions aboutto deposit run-off, we estimate that a $5 billion instantaneous reduction/increase in U.S. dollar-denominated noninterest-bearing deposits would reduce/increase the impact of changes innet interest rates on depositor behavior based on historical experience. Given the current historically low interest rate environment and the potential change to the implementation of monetary policy, the impact of depositor behavior is highly uncertain. The lowerrevenue sensitivity results in the ramp up 200 basis point scenario compared with the 100 basis point scenario is driven by the assumption of increased deposit runoff and forecasted changes in the deposit pricing.table above by approximately $320 million. The impact would be smaller if the run-off was assumed to be a mixture of interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing deposits.


GrowthAdditionally, during periods of low short-term interest rates, money market mutual fund fees and other similar fees are typically waived to protect investors from negative returns. See “Fee and other revenue” in our 2022 Annual Report for additional details on money market fee waivers.

Supplemental information - Explanation of GAAP and Non-GAAP financial measures


BNY Mellon has included in this Form 10-Q certain Non-GAAP financial measures based on estimated fully phased-in CET1 and other risk-based capital ratios, the estimated fully phased-in SLR and tangible common shareholders’ equity. BNY Mellon believes that the CET1 and other risk-based capital ratios, on a fully phased-intangible basis and the SLR, onas a fully phased-in basis, are measures of capital strength that provide additional usefulsupplement to GAAP information, to investors, supplementing the capital ratios which are, or were, required by regulatory authorities. The tangible common shareholders’ equity ratio, which excludesexclude goodwill and intangible assets, net of deferred tax liabilities, includes changes in investment securities valuations which are reflected in total shareholders’ equity. BNY Mellon believesliabilities. We believe that the return on tangible common equity measure– Non-GAAP is an additional useful measureinformation for investors because it presents a measure of those assets that can generate income. BNY Mellon has provided a measure ofincome, and the tangible book value per common share which it believes provides– Non-GAAP is additional useful information as tobecause it presents the level of tangible assets in relation to shares of common stock outstanding.


BNY Mellon has presented revenue measures which exclude the effect of noncontrolling interests related to consolidated investment management funds,excluding notable items, including disposal gains. Expense measures, excluding notable items, including goodwill impairment, severance expense and expense measures, which exclude amortization of intangible assets and M&I, litigation and restructuring charges. Operating margin, operating leverage and return on equity measures, which
exclude some or all of these items, as well as the recovery related to Sentinel,reserves, are also presented. Operating margin measures may also exclude the provision for credit losses and distribution and servicing expense. BNY Mellon believes that these measures are useful to investors because they permit a focus on period-to-period comparisons, which relate to the ability of BNY Mellon to enhance revenues and limit expenses in circumstances where such matters are within BNY Mellon’s control. M&I expenses primarily relate to acquisitions and generally continue for approximately three years after the transaction. Litigation chargesreserves represent accruals for loss contingencies that are both probable and reasonably estimable, but exclude standard business-related legal fees. Restructuring charges relateTotal revenue, noninterest expense, net income applicable to our streamlining actionscommon shareholders of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation, diluted earnings per share and Operational Excellence Initiatives. Excluding the charges effective tax rate, excluding the notable items
mentioned above, permitsare also provided. These measures are provided to permit investors to view expensesfinancial measures on a basis consistent with how management views the business.


The presentation of income from consolidatedthe growth rates of investment management funds, net of net income attributable to noncontrolling interests related to the consolidation of certain investment management funds,and performance fees on a constant currency basis permits investors to view revenueassess the significance of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Growth rates on a constant currency basis consistent with how management viewswere determined by applying the business. BNY Mellon believescurrent period foreign currency exchange rates to the prior period revenue. We believe that these presentations,this presentation, as a supplement to GAAP information, givegives investors a clearer picture of the related revenue results without the variability caused by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

BNY Mellon has also included the adjusted pre-tax operating margin Non-GAAP, which is the pre-tax operating margin for the Investment and Wealth Management business segment, net of its primary businesses.distribution and servicing expense that was passed to third parties who distribute or service our managed funds. We believe that this measure is useful when evaluating the performance of the Investment and Wealth Management business segment relative to industry competitors.

Each of these measures as described above is used by management to monitor financial performance, both on a company-wide and on a business-level basis.

Recent accounting and regulatory developments


Recently issuedRecent accounting standardsdevelopments


The following Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”)accounting guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) havehas not yet been adopted.adopted as of Sept. 30, 2023.


ASU 2017-12, DerivativesAccounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-02, Investments—Equity Method and Hedging: Targeted Improvements toJoint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Hedging ActivitiesInvestments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method


In August 2017,March 2023, the FASB issued an ASU Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to 2023-02, Accounting for Hedging Activities. The objective of this ASU isInvestments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method, which permits reporting entities to improve the financial reporting of hedging relationshipselect to better portray the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities and to simplify the application of hedge accounting guidance.

The most significant impactaccount for their tax equity investments, regardless of the new guidancetax credit program from which the income tax credits are received, using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, an entity amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the Company relates toincome tax credits and other income tax benefits received, and recognizes the new accounting alternatives for fair value hedges of interest rate risk, specifically,net amortization and income tax credits and other income tax benefits in the ability to hedge only the benchmarkincome statement as a component of the contractual cash flows, partial-term hedging and the introduction of the “last of layer” methodprovision for hedges of portfolios of prepayable financial assets. The guidance also changed presentation and disclosure requirements and made changes to how the shortcut method is applied which may result in the Company using that method going forward for certain hedging relationships.income taxes.


This ASU is effective for the first quarter of 2019,Jan. 1, 2024 with early adoption permitted. Certain transition elections are available including the ability to reclassify a debt security from held-to-maturity to available-for-sale if it is eligible to be hedged under the last of layer method with any unrealized gain or loss at the transfer date being recorded in other comprehensive income. If this ASU is adopted early, the new guidance will be applicable as of the beginning of that year. BNY Mellon is currently assessingevaluating this guidance with respect to our investments in renewable energy projects, which historically have not been eligible to apply the impactsproportional amortization method. These investments currently generate losses in investment and other revenue that are more than offset by benefits and credits recorded to the provision for income taxes. The impact of adopting this new guidance for our renewable energy investments that meet the new standard.

ASU 2017-07, Compensation-Retirement Benefits - Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Costeligibility criteria would be an increase in investment and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost

In March 2017, the FASB issuedother revenue and an ASU, Compensation-Retirement Benefits - Improving the
Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. The ASU requires the disaggregation of the service cost component from the other components of the net benefit costincrease in the provision for income statement. The ASU also permits only the service cost component of net benefit cost to be eligible for capitalization. The ASU is effective for the first quarter of 2018, with early adoption permitted. The guidance in this ASU should be applied retrospectively for the presentation of the service cost component and the other components in the income statement, and prospectively for the capitalization of the service cost component in assets. BNY Mellon is assessing the impacts of the new standard. For informationtaxes on the components of our pension and post-retirement health plan costs, see Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q and Note 16 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2016 Annual Report.  To the extent that our recent trend of having a net credit for pension and other post-retirement costs continues, the standard will result in an increase to staff expense and a reduction in other expense. consolidated income statement.


ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows Restricted Cash

In November 2016, the FASB issued an ASU, Statement of Cash Flows – Restricted Cash. This ASU provides guidance on the presentation of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows and is effective for the first quarter of 2018. Earlier application is permitted. BNY Mellon is assessing the impacts of the new standard, and expects to include restricted cash (which totaled $4 billion as of Sept. 30, 2017) with cash and due from banks when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows.

ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments

In August 2016, the FASB issued an ASU, Statement of Cash Flows – Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. This ASU provides guidance on eight specific cash flow presentation issues and is effective for the first quarter of 2018. Earlier application is permitted, however all of the amendments must be adopted in the same period. BNY Mellon is assessing the impacts of the new


BNY Mellon 53


standard, and does not expect this ASU to materially affect the results of operations or financial condition.

ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB issued an ASU, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. This ASU introduces a new current expected credit losses model, which will apply to financial assets subject to credit losses and measured at amortized cost, including held-to-maturity securities and certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. The guidance will also change current practice for the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities. The available-for-sale debt securities model will require the use of an allowance to record estimated credit losses and subsequent recoveries. This ASU is effective for the first quarter of 2020. Earlier application is permitted beginning with the first quarter of 2019. BNY Mellon has begun its implementation efforts and is currently identifying key interpretive issues, and will assess existing credit loss forecasting models and processes against the new guidance to determine what modifications may be required. The extent of the impact to our financial statements upon adoption depends on several factors including the remaining expected life of financial instruments at the time of adoption, the establishment of an allowance for expected credit loss on held-to-maturity securities, and the macroeconomic conditions and forecasts that exist at that date.

ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This ASU, as amended, provides guidance on the recognition of revenue related to the transfer of promised goods or services to customers, guidance on accounting for certain contract costs and additional disclosure requirements about revenue and contract costs. The standard supersedes most existing revenue recognition guidance and is effective for the first quarter of 2018 using either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method upon adoption.

The Company has completed its evaluation of the potential impact of this guidance on our accounting policies, and based on that evaluation, the timing of most of our revenue recognition will remain the same and the impacts will not be material. The impacts primarily relate to deferring and amortizing certain
sales commission costs related to obtaining customer contracts and the timing of recognizing the contra revenue related to certain payments made to customers. The Company plans to adopt the guidance as of Jan. 1, 2018 using the cumulative effect transition method. The Company is currently developing the disclosures required about revenue and contract costs and finalizing changes to internal control.

ASU 2016-02, Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. The primary objective of this ASU is to increase transparency and comparability by recognizing lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet and expand related disclosures. ASU 2016-02 requires a “right-of-use” asset and a payment obligation liability on the balance sheet for most leases and subleases. Additionally, depending on the lease classification under the standard, it may result in different expense recognition patterns and classification than under existing accounting principles. For leases classified as finance leases, it will result in higher expense recognition in the earlier periods and lower expense in the later periods of the lease.

The standard is effective for the first quarter of 2019, with early adoption permitted. We will utilize the modified retrospective transition approach as of the beginning of the earliest period presented, which will result in a cumulative effect recorded in the earliest period presented. Additionally, the standard allows for various optional practical expedients to assist with the implementation and reporting requirements. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the leasing standard on our consolidated financial statements and evaluating the practical expedients that may be elected. Upon adoption, the implementation of the leasing standard is expected to result in an immaterial increase in both assets and liabilities.

ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The ASU requires investments in equity securities that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method to be measured at fair value with


54 BNY Mellon


changes in the fair value recognized through net income, unless one of two available exceptions apply. The first exception, a scope exception, allows Federal Reserve Bank stock, FHLB stock and other exchange memberships held by broker dealers to remain accounted for at cost, less impairment. The second exception, a practicability exception, will be available for equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values and do not qualify for the practical expedient to estimate fair value under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. To the extent the practicability exception applies, such investments will be accounted for at cost adjusted for impairment, if any, plus or minus changes from observable price changes.

The amendments also require an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from the entity’s “own credit risk” when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value. The amendments also eliminate the requirement to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair values of financial instruments measured at amortized cost that are on the balance sheet.

The Company plans to adopt this guidance in the first quarter of 2018 using the cumulative effect method of adoption. BNY Mellon does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact to the financial statements.

Recent regulatory and other developments


For a summary of additional regulatory matters relevant to our operations, see Supervision and Regulation“Recent regulatory developments” in our 2016Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023, and “Supervision and Regulation” in our 2022 Annual Report.

Final Rule on Qualified Financial Contracts
Report. The following discussion summarizes certain regulatory, legislative and other developments that may affect BNY Mellon.


Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) Special Assessment

On Sept.May 11, 2023, the FDIC proposed a rule to impose a special assessment on insured depository institutions (“IDIs”) to recover losses to the Deposit Insurance Fund (“DIF”) associated with the closures of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank. Under the proposal, the FDIC would collect from each IDI a special assessment at an annual rate of approximately 12.5 basis points of the IDI’s estimated uninsured deposits (excluding the first $5 billion of estimated uninsured deposits), as of Dec. 31, 2022. For an IDI that is part of a holding company containing multiple IDIs, the $5 billion deduction would be apportioned based on the IDI’s estimated uninsured deposits as a percentage of total estimated uninsured deposits held by all IDI affiliates in the consolidated banking organization. The special assessment would be collected during an initial special assessment period of eight quarters, with the first quarterly assessment period beginning on Jan. 1, 2017,2024, subject to potential extension and a potential one-time final special assessment for any shortfall to the DIF. If the assessment is finalized as proposed, we estimate a noninterest expense of approximately $470 million to be recorded in the quarter in which the rule is finalized, which would significantly affect the results of operations for that quarter.

U.S. Regulatory Capital Requirements

On July 27, 2023, the Federal Reserve, adopted a final rule to require U.S. global systemically important banking organizations (“G-SIBs”) and the U.S. operations of foreign G-SIBs to amend their covered qualified financial contracts (“QFCs”). The FDIC adopted a substantially equivalent proposal on Oct. 30, 2017 and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency is expectedand the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation proposed substantial revisions to do sothe capital requirements applicable to large banking organizations and to banking organizations with significant trading activity, including BNY Mellon. The proposed revisions would implement international capital standards issued by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in December 2017 to finalize the near future. QFCs generally include derivatives, repurchase agreements and securities lending arrangements, among others.Basel III reforms, as well as the Basel Committee’s revised standard for market risk capital requirements finalized in February 2019. In addition, on July 27, 2023, the Federal Reserve proposed amendments to its rule regarding risk-based capital surcharges for GSIBs, including BNY Mellon. The final rule includes two key requirements. First,period to submit comments on the final rule generally requiresproposals has been extended to Jan.

European Central Bank (“ECB”) remuneration on minimum reserves

On July 27, 2023, the Governing Council of the ECB established 0% as the remuneration of minimum reserves credit institutions are required to hold with their Eurosystem national central bank on average over a maintenance period. The change became effective as of the beginning of the reserve maintenance period starting Sept. 20, 2023.

FDIC Long-Term Debt and Clean Holding Company Requirements

On Aug. 29, 2023, the Federal Reserve proposed amendments to its total loss-absorbing capacity (“TLAC”) rule applicable to G-SIBs, including BNY Mellon. Among other requirements, the proposal would (i) require a $400,000 minimum denomination for newly issued long-term debt of G-SIBs explicitly provide that any resolution stays applicableused to satisfy TLAC and long-term debt requirements and (ii) subject to notice and comment procedures, require a G-SIB to maintain an amount of eligible TLAC or long-term debt instruments greater or less than generally required under the exerciserule. The proposal would also exempt certain agreements from the scope of default rightsthe TLAC rule’s clean holding company prohibitions with respect to such QFCs and to any resolution transfers under U.S. special resolution regimes apply to such covered QFCs.  Second, the final rule requires that QFCs of G-SIBs be amended to neither permit the exercise of default or cross-default rights against entities covered by the final rule basedqualified financial contracts with third parties. Comments on the resolution or bankruptcy of an affiliate of such entities, nor allow for any transfer restrictions with respect to such QFCs.

The finalproposed rule allows G-SIBs to comply withare due by Nov. 30, 2023. We are evaluating the rule by adhering to the International Swaps and Derivatives Association 2015 Universal Resolution Stay Protocol (the “Protocol”) or a similar protocol that accomplishes the contractual amendments required by the rule. BNY Mellon entities that engage in QFC activities covered by the Protocol have adhered to the Protocol.  Compliance with the Federal Reserve’s final rule will be required on a phased-in basis beginning on Jan. 1, 2019. BNY Mellon is evaluating thepotential impact of the new regulationsproposed rule.

FDIC Resolution Planning for Large Banks

On Aug. 29, 2023, the FDIC proposed revisions to the resolution plan rule applicable to covered IDIs. The proposed amendment would expand certain IDI resolution plan content requirements, adjust the frequency of resolution plan submissions from a 3-year cycle to a 2-year cycle, and require supplemental submissions of information in the interim period between filing years. Comments on its activities.the proposed rule are due by Nov. 30, 2023. We are evaluating the potential impact of the proposed rule.


Resolution planSEC Naming Convention Rules for Funds


As requiredOn Sept. 20, 2023, the SEC adopted amendments expanding the scope of terms that the SEC considers materially deceptive and misleading in a fund’s name
without a corresponding policy and related controls to invest at least 80% of the fund’s net asset value (plus certain borrowings) in the manner suggested by the Dodd-Frankfund’s name (“80% Policy”), including names that reference “growth” or “value,” or a name indicating that investment decisions incorporate any environmental, social and governance factors. The amendments will become effective 60 days after publication in the Federal Register and fund groups will have either 24 months or 30 months to come into compliance, depending upon their net asset size.

SEC Money Market Fund Reforms

On July 12, 2023, the SEC adopted amendments to rules that govern money market funds. The amendments became effective Oct. 2, 2023, with tiered compliance dates. The amendments include, among other things: (i) a mandatory liquidity fee for institutional prime and institutional tax-exempt money market funds, which will apply when a fund experiences daily net redemptions that exceed 5% of net assets (effective Oct. 2, 2023); (ii) maintenance of a fund board’s ability to impose liquidity fees (not to exceed 2% of the value of the shares redeemed) on a discretionary basis for non-government money market funds (effective April 2, 2024), (iii) substantially increasing the required minimum levels of daily and weekly liquid assets for all money market funds from 10% and 30%, to 25% and 50%, respectively (effective April 2, 2024), and (iv) removal of a money market fund’s ability to impose temporary “gates” to suspend redemptions in order to prevent dilution and remove the link between a money market fund’s liquidity level and its imposition of liquidity fees (effective Oct. 2, 2023).

California Climate Disclosure Laws

On Oct. 7, 2023, California enacted three climate-related bills imposing extensive new climate-related disclosure obligations applicable to companies doing business in California. The Climate Corporate Data Accountability Act (SB 253) requires covered companies with total annual revenues of $1 billion or more to disclose annually their Scope 1 (owned and controlled sources) and Scope 2 (from energy purchased and used) greenhouse gas emissions beginning in 2026, and Scope 3 (up and down value chain) greenhouse gas emissions beginning in 2027.

reports disclosing climate-related financial risks and the measures adopted to mitigate the disclosed risks by Jan. 1, 2026. The Voluntary Carbon Market Disclosures Act (AB 1305), effective Jan. 1, 2024, requires companies making certain claims, including regarding carbon neutrality or reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, and companies purchasing carbon offsets in addition to making such claims, to disclose information on the determination of accuracy of the claim, interim progress measures, third-party verification and, if applicable, information on the carbon offsets purchased and emissions data. The laws may be modified by future legislation. We are assessing the potential impact of the climate disclosure laws.

Federal Reserve Novel Activities Supervisory Program

On Aug. 8, 2023, the Federal Reserve issued a Supervision and Regulation Letter (SR 23-7) announcing the FDIC a plan forestablishment of its rapidNovel Activities Supervision Program (“NAS Program”) to complement its existing supervision and orderly resolution inoversight of supervised banking organizations, including BNY Mellon. The NAS Program will encompass risk-based monitoring and examination and focus on novel activities related to crypto-assets, distributed ledger technology, and complex, technology-driven partnerships with nonbank providers of banking products and services to customers. We are evaluating the eventpotential impact of material financial distress or failure. BNY Mellon filed its most recent resolution plan on July 1, 2017. We believe the 2017 resolution plan addresses all shortcomings and deficiencies identified by the FDIC and the Federal Reserve in the Company’s 2015 resolution plan. The public portion of our 2017 resolution plan is available on the Federal Reserve’s and FDIC’s websites.NAS Program.


In September 2017, the Federal Reserve and FDIC extended the filing deadline by one year to July 1, 2019 for the Parent’s next resolution plan.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


Note 1 - 1–Basis of presentation


In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, references to “our,” “we,” “us,” “BNY Mellon,” the “Company” and similar terms refer to The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries. The term “Parent” refers to The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation but not to its subsidiaries.

Basis of presentation


The accounting and financial reporting policies of BNY Mellon, a global financial services company, conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and prevailing industry practices. For information on our significant accounting and reporting policies, see Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended Dec. 31, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Report”).


The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented have been made. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with BNY Mellon’sour Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended Dec. 31, 2016.Report. Certain additional immaterial reclassifications have been made to prior periods to place them on a basis comparable with the current period presentation.


Use of estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates based upon assumptions about future economic and market conditions which affect reported amounts and related disclosures in our financial statements. Although our current estimates contemplate current conditions and how we expect them to change in the future, it is reasonably possible that actual conditions could be worse than anticipated in those estimates, which could materially affect our results of operations and financial condition. Amounts subject to estimates are items such as the allowance for loan losses and lending-related commitments, the fair value of financial instruments and derivatives, other-than-temporary impairment, goodwill and other intangibles and pension accounting. Among other effects, such changes in estimates could result in future impairments of investment securities, goodwill and intangible assets and establishment of allowances for loan losses and lending-related commitments as well as changes in pension and post-retirement expense.


Note 2 - Accounting change and new2–New accounting guidance


ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This ASU simplifies the annual goodwill impairment test by eliminating Step 2. The Step 2 calculation estimated the implied goodwill using the fair values of all assets, including previously unrecorded intangibles, and liabilities at the date of the test. Step 2following accounting guidance was required if the first step of the annual test indicated that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. After adopting this ASU, the amount of any goodwill impairment will be determined by the excess of the carrying value of a reporting unit over its fair value. The Company early adopted this ASU in the second quarter of 2017, in conjunction with its annual goodwill impairment test. The annual test did not result in any impairment.

ASU 2016-09, Compensation Stock Compensation

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation Stock Compensation. This ASU simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including income tax consequences, recognition of forfeitures and classification on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted this ASU effective Jan. 1, 2017.

For the first nine months of 2017, we recorded an income tax benefit of $45 million related to the vesting of stock awards and option exercises in the provision for income taxes. Previously, this had been recorded directly to additional paid-in capital. The impact in future periods will vary depending on the number of restricted stock units vesting (which primarily occurs in the first quarter of each year)2023.

Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2022-01, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Fair Value Hedging – Portfolio Layer Method

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-01, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Fair Value Hedging – Portfolio Layer Method, which provides guidance that expands the numberability to hedge interest rate risk by permitting the use of stock options exercisedmultiple hedged layers of a single closed portfolio of assets and will (1) Allow multiple layer hedging within the changesame closed portfolio, (2) Expand the scope of the portfolio layer method to include non-prepayable assets, (3) Expand the eligible hedging instruments to be utilized in value sincea single-layer hedge, and (4) Permit held-to-maturity debt securities to be transferred to available-for-sale at the grantdate of adoption, provided such transferred securities are designated in a portfolio layer method hedge within 30 days of the adoption date.


The standard also provides further guidance and disclosure requirements with respect to hedge basis adjustments related to portfolio layer method hedges.

We continueadopted this guidance as of Jan. 1, 2023. The Company did not choose to make the one-time election to reclassify securities classified as held-to-maturity to available-for-sale as of Jan. 1, 2023 and can choose to prospectively apply our accounting policy election for estimating forfeitures. Additionally, beginning inportfolio layer method hedging.

ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures

In March 2022, the quarter ended March 31, 2017, we report excess tax benefitsFASB issued ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures, which provides post-implementation guidance related to stock-based compensation as operating activitiesthe adoption of ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which was effective Jan. 1, 2020. This ASU amends the statementguidance related to two issues: Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDRs”) and disclosure requirements for the credit profile of cash flowsthe loan portfolio. This ASU eliminates the accounting guidance for TDRs by creditors, while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty.

modification results in a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan.

This ASU also requires that an entity disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326-20, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses – Measured at Amortized Cost.

We adopted the revised guidance related to loan modifications on Jan. 1, 2023. The impact was immaterial. The updated disclosures are included in Note 5.

Note 3 - 3–Acquisitions and dispositions


We sometimes structure our acquisitions and divestitures with both an initial payment or receipt and later contingent payments or receipts tied to post-closing revenue or income growth. Contingent payments totaled $2$5 million in the third quarter of 2017 and the first nine months of 2017.

2023. There were no contingent receipts in the first nine months of 2023. At Sept. 30, 2017,2023, we are potentially obligated to pay additional considerationwhich, using reasonable assumptions and estimates, could range from $0$25 million to $16$40 millionover the nexttwo years, but. At Sept. 30, 2023, we could potentially receive additional consideration which, using reasonable assumptions and estimates, could be higher as certainup to $390 million over the next five years.

See Note 3 of the arrangements do not contain a contractual maximum. The acquisition described below did not have a material impact on BNY Mellon’s results of operations.

In September 2017, other residential mortgage-backed securities with an aggregate amortized cost of $74 million and fair value of $76 million were transferred from held-to-maturity securities to available-for-sale securities. Due to recent ratings downgrades, the Company no longer intends to hold these securities to maturity.

Temporarily impaired securities


At Sept. 30, 2017,2023, the gross unrealized losses on the investment securities portfolio were primarily attributable to an increase in interest rates from the date of purchase, and for certain securities that were transferred from available-for-sale to held-to-maturity, an increase in interest rates through the date they were transferred. Specifically, $155$153 million of the unrealized losses at Sept. 30, 20172023 and $190$179 million at Dec. 31, 20162022 reflected in the available-for-sale sections of the tables below relate to certain securities (primarily Agency RMBS) that were previously transferred in prior periods from available-for-sale to held-to-maturity. The unrealized losses will be amortized into net interest revenue over the contractual lives of the securities. The transfer created a new cost basis for the securities. As a result, if these securities have experienced unrealized losses since the date of transfer, the corresponding fair value and unrealized losses would be reflected in the held-to-maturity sections ofsecurities portfolio in the following tables. We do not intend to sell these securities, and it is not more likely than not that we will have to sell these securities.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(continued)

The following tables show the credit quality of the held-to-maturity securities. We have included certain credit ratings information because the information can indicate the degree of credit risk to which we are exposed. Significant changes in ratings classifications could indicate increased credit risk for us and could be accompanied by an increase in the allowance for credit losses and/or a reduction in the fair value of our securities portfolio.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(continued)

Other-than-temporary impairment

We conduct periodic reviews of all securities to determine whether OTTI has occurred. Such reviews may incorporate the use of economic models. Various inputs to the economic models are used to determine if an unrealized loss on securities is other-than-temporary. For example, the most significant inputs related to non-agency RMBS are:

Default rate - the number of mortgage loans expected to go into default over the life of the transaction, which is driven by the roll rate of loans in each performance bucket that will ultimately migrate to default; and
Severity - the loss expected to be realized when a loan defaults.

To determine if an unrealized loss is other-than-temporary, we project total estimated defaults of the underlying assets (mortgages) and multiply that calculated amount by an estimate of realizable value upon sale of these assets in the marketplace (severity) in order to determine the projected collateral loss. In determining estimated default rate and severity assumptions, we review the performance of the underlying securities, industry studies and market forecasts, as well as our view of the economic outlook affecting collateral. We also evaluate the current credit enhancement underlying the bond to determine the impact on cash flows. If we determine that a given security will be subject to a write-down or loss, we record the expected credit loss as a charge to earnings.

The table below shows the projected weighted-average default rates and loss severities for the 2007, 2006 and late 2005 non-agency RMBS and the securities previously held in the Grantor Trust that we established in connection with the restructuring of our investment securities portfolio in 2009, at Sept. 30, 2017 and Dec. 31, 2016.

Loan modifications
Troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”)

Modified loans are evaluated to determine whether a modification or restructuring with a borrower experiencing financial difficulty results in principal forgiveness, an interest rate reduction, an other-than-insignificant payment delay, or a term extension. The modification could result in a new loan or a continuation of the existing loan.
A
In the third quarter of 2023, we modified one other residential mortgage loan, iswith an aggregate recorded investment of less than $1 million, by providing payment modifications.

In the second quarter of 2023, we modified one commercial real estate exposure, with a recorded investment of $59 million and an unfunded lending commitment of $15 million, by extending the maturity date. We also modified two other residential mortgage loans, with an aggregate recorded investment of less than $1 million, by extending the maturity dates and reducing the interest rates.


We modified one commercial real estate loan in the first quarter of 2023, with a recorded investment of $12 million, by extending the maturity date.

Loans modified prior to 2023 are considered a TDRto be TDRs if the debtor is experiencing financial difficulties and the creditor grants a concession to the debtor that would not
otherwise be considered. A TDR may include a transfer of real estate or other assets from the debtor to the creditor, or a modification of the term of the loan. Not all modified loans are considered TDRs.

Other residential mortgages

We modified eight loans in the first nine months of 2022 with an aggregate recorded investment of $13 million. The modifications of the other residential mortgageand commercial real estate loans in the third quarterfirst nine months of 2017, second quarter of 2017 and third quarter of 20162022 consisted of reducing the stated interest rates and, in certain cases, a forbearance of default and extending the maturity dates. The modified loans are primarily collateral dependent for which the value is based on the fair value of the collateral.

TDRs that subsequently defaulted

There were three residential mortgage loans that had been restructured in a TDR during the previous 12
BNY Mellon 67

months and have subsequently defaulted in the third quarter of 2017. The total recorded investment of these loans was less than $1 million.

Credit quality indicators


Our credit strategy is to focus on investment gradeinvestment-grade clients that are active users of our non-credit services. Each customer is assigned an internal credit rating, which is mapped to an external rating agency grade equivalent, if possible, based upon a number of dimensions, which are continually evaluated and may change over time.

The following tables presentbelow provide information about the credit quality indicators.

The commercial loan portfolio is divided into investment grade and non-investment grade categories based on rating criteria largely consistent with those of the public rating agencies. Each customer in the portfolio is assigned an internal credit rating. These internal credit ratings, which are generally consistent with the ratings categoriesthose of the public rating agencies. Customers with ratings consistent with BBB- (S&P)/Baa3 (Moody’s) or better are considered to be investment grade. Those clients with ratings lower than this threshold are considered to be non-investment grade.


Commercial real estate

Our income-producing commercial real estate facilities are focused on experienced owners and are structured with moderate leverage based on existing cash flows. Our commercial real estate lending activities also include construction and renovation facilities.

Financial institutions

Financial institution exposures are high quality, with 94% of the exposures meeting the investment grade
equivalent criteria of our internal credit rating classification at Sept. 30, 2023. In addition, 64% of the financial institutions exposure is secured. For example, securities industry clients and asset managers often borrow against marketable securities held in custody. The exposure to financial institutions is generally short term, with 84% expiring within one year.

Wealth management non-mortgage loans are not typically rated by external rating agencies. A majority of the wealth management loans are secured by the customers’ investment management accounts or custody accounts. Eligible assets pledged for these loans are typically investment grade fixed-income securities, equities and/or mutual funds. Internal ratings for this portion of the wealth management loan portfolio, therefore, would equate to investment grade external ratings. Wealth management loans are provided to select customers based on the pledge of other types of assets, including business assets, fixed assets or a modest amount of commercial real estate.assets.

Goodwill impairment testing

The goodwill impairment test is performed at least annually at the reporting unit level. An interim test is performed when events or circumstances occur that may indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of any reporting unit may be less than its carrying value.
In the third quarter of 2023, due to the results of the second quarter 2023 interim goodwill impairment test and macroeconomic conditions, we performed an interim goodwill impairment test of the Investment Management reporting unit, which had $6.0 billion of allocated goodwill. No additional goodwill impairment was recognized.

Non-readily marketable equity securities

Non-readily marketable equity securities do not have readily determinable fair values. These investments are valued using a measurement alternative where the investments are carried at cost, less any impairment, and plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer. The observable price changes are recorded in investment and other revenue on the consolidated income statement. Our non-readily marketable equity securities totaled $420 million at Sept. 30, 2023 and $445 million at Dec. 31, 2022, and are included in other equity investments in the table above.

Contract balances

Our clients are billed based on fee schedules that are agreed upon in each customer contract. Receivables from customers were $2.6 billion at Sept. 30, 2023 and Dec. 31, 2022.

Contract assets represent accrued revenues that have not yet been billed to customers due to certain contractual terms other than the passage of time and were $49 million at Sept. 30, 2023 and $48 million at Dec. 31, 2022. Accrued revenues recorded as contract assets are usually billed on an annual basis.

Both receivables from customers and contract assets are included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet.

Contract liabilities represent payments received in advance of providing services under certain contracts and were $205 million at Sept. 30, 2023 and $164 million at Dec. 31, 2022. Contract liabilities are included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. Revenue recognized in the first nine months of 2023 relating to contract liabilities as of Dec. 31, 2022 was $104 million. Revenue recognized in the third quarter of 2023 relating to contract liabilities as of June 30, 2023 was $77 million.

BNY Mellon 75

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
Changes in contract assets and liabilities primarily relate to either party’s performance under the contracts.

Contract costs

Incremental costs for obtaining contracts that are deemed recoverable are capitalized as contract costs. Such costs result from the payment of sales incentives, primarily in the Wealth Management business, and totaled $51 million at Sept. 30, 2023 and $58 million at Dec. 31, 2022. Capitalized sales incentives are amortized based on the transfer of goods or services to which the assets relate. The amortization of capitalized sales incentives, which is included in staff expense on the consolidated income statement, totaled $4 million in the third quarter of 2023, $5 million in the third quarter of 2022, $4 million in the second quarter of 2023, $12 million in the first nine months of 2023 and $14 million in the first nine months of 2022.

Costs to fulfill a contract are capitalized when they relate directly to an existing contract or a specific
anticipated contract, generate or enhance resources that will be used to fulfill performance obligations, and are recoverable. Such costs generally represent set-up costs, which include any direct cost incurred at the inception of a contract which enables the fulfillment of the performance obligation, and totaled $88 million at Sept. 30, 2023 and $77 million at Dec. 31, 2022. These capitalized costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected contract period.

Unsatisfied performance obligations

We do not have any unsatisfied performance obligations other than those that are subject to a practical expedient election under ASC 606, Revenue From Contracts With Customers. The practical expedient election applies to (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.

Note 10 - 11–Income taxes


BNY Mellon recorded an income tax provision of $348$241 million (25.4%(18.8% effective tax rate) in the third quarter of 2017.2023. The income tax provision was $324$242 million (24.6%(38.4% effective tax rate) in the third quarter of 2016 and $3322022, which includes approximately 19% impact due to the goodwill impairment. The income tax provision was $270 million (25.4%(20.2% effective tax rate) in the second quarter of 2017.2023.


Our total tax reserves as of Sept. 30, 20172023 were $157$109 million, compared with $143$106 million at June 30, 2017.Dec. 31, 2022. If these tax reserves were unnecessary, $157$109 million would affect the effective tax rate in future periods. We recognize accrued interest and penalties, if applicable, related to income taxes in income tax expense. Included in the balance sheet at Sept. 30, 20172023 is accrued interest, where applicable, of $24$36 million. The additional tax expense related to interest for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 20172023 was $7$3 million, compared with $2$3 million for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2016.2022.


It is reasonably possible the total reserve for uncertain tax positions could decrease within the next 12 months by approximately $57$9 million as a result of
adjustments related to tax years that are still subject to examination.


Our federal income tax returns are closed to examination through 2013.2016. Our New York State and New York City andincome tax returns are closed to examination through 2014. Our UK income tax returns are closed to examination through 2012.2020.

The VIEs discussed above are included in the scope of ASU 2015-02, which was adopted effective Jan. 1, 2015, and are reviewed for consolidation based on the guidance in ASC 810, Consolidation.We reconsider and reassess whether or not we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE when governing documents or contractual arrangements are changed that would reallocate the obligation to absorb expected losses or receive expected residual returns between
BNY Mellon and the other investors. This could occur when BNY Mellon disposes of its variable interests in the fund, when additional variable interests are issued to other investors or when we acquire additional variable interests in the VIE.77

Note 14 - 15–Fair value measurement


Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements is utilized based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. BNY Mellon’s own creditworthiness is considered when valuing liabilities. See Note 1820 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 20162022 Annual Report for
information on how we determine fair value and the fair value hierarchy.

The following tables present the financial instruments carried at fair value at Sept. 30, 20172023 and Dec. 31, 2016,2022, by caption on the consolidated balance sheet and by the three-level valuation hierarchy. We have included credit ratings information in certain of the tables because the information indicates the degree of credit risk to which we are exposed, and significant changes in ratings classifications could result in increased risk for us.

Changes in Level 3 fair value measurements

Our classification of a financial instrument in Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy is based on the significance of the unobservable factors to the overall fair value measurement. However, these instruments generally include other observable components that are actively quoted or validated to third-party sources; accordingly, the gains and losses in the table below include changes in fair value due to observable parameters as well as the unobservable parameters in our valuation methodologies. We also manage the
risks of Level 3 financial instruments using securities and derivatives positions that are Level 1 or Level 2 instruments which are not included in the table; accordingly, the gains or losses below do not reflect the effect of our risk management activities related to the Level 3 instruments.

The Company has a Level 3 Pricing Committee which evaluates the valuation techniques used in

determining the fair value of Level 3 assets and liabilities.

There were no financial instruments recorded at fair value on a recurring basis classified in Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy in the first nine months of 2017.
The table below includes a roll forward of the balance sheet amount for the three and nine months ended Sept. 30, 2016 (including the change in fair value), for financial instruments classified in Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis


Under certain circumstances, we make adjustments to the fair value of our assets, liabilities and unfunded lending-related commitments, although they are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis. An example would be the recording of an impairment of an asset.
The following tables presenttable presents the carrying value as of Sept. 30, 2023 and Dec. 31, 2022 of financial instruments for which nonrecurring adjustments to fair value have been recorded during 2023 and/or 2022 and all non-readily marketable equity securities carried on the consolidatedat cost with upward or downward adjustments by balance sheet by caption and by level in the fair value hierarchy as of Sept. 30, 2017 and Dec. 31, 2016, for which a nonrecurring change inhierarchy.

Note 15 - 16–Fair value option


We elected fair value as an alternative measurement for selected financial assets and financial liabilities.liabilities that are not otherwise required to be measured at fair value, including the assets and liabilities of consolidated investment management funds and subordinated notes associated with certain equity investments.

BNY Mellon valuesThe assets and liabilities of the consolidated investment management funds are included in other assets and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. We value the assets and liabilities of its consolidated investment management funds using quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in
active markets or observable inputs such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities. Quoted prices for either identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets may also be used. Accordingly, fair value best reflects the interests BNY Mellon holds in the economic performance of the consolidated investment management funds. Changes in the fair value of the assets and liabilities are recorded in theas income statement as investment income of(loss) from consolidated investment management funds, which is included in investment and inother revenue on the interest of investment management fund note holders, respectively.consolidated income statement.

Note 16 - 17–Derivative instruments


We use derivatives to manage exposure to market risk, including interest rate risk, equity price risk and foreign currency risk, as well as credit risk. Our trading activities are focused on acting as a market-maker for our customers and facilitating customer trades in compliance with the Volcker Rule.


The notional amounts for derivative financial instruments express the dollar volume of the transactions; however, credit risk is much smaller.
BNY Mellon 85

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
We perform credit reviews and enter into netting agreements and collateral arrangements to minimize the credit risk of derivative financial instruments. We enter into offsetting positions to reduce exposure to foreign currency, interest rate and equity price risk.


Use of derivative financial instruments involves reliance on counterparties. Failure of a counterparty to honor its obligation under a derivative contract is a risk we assume whenever we engage in a derivative contract. There were no counterparty default losses recorded in the third quarter of 2017 or the third quarter of 2016.2023.


Hedging derivatives


We utilize interest rate swap agreements to manage our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. ForWe enter into fair value hedges of available-for-sale investment securities, deposits and long-term debt, the hedge documentation specifies the terms of the hedged items and theas an interest rate swaps and indicates that the derivative is hedging a fixed rate item and is a fair value hedge, that the hedge exposure isrisk management strategy to the changes in the fair value of the hedged item due to changes in benchmark interest rates, and that the strategy is to eliminatereduce fair value variability by converting certain fixed rate interest payments associated with available-for-sale securities and long-term debt to LIBOR.floating interest rates. We also utilize interest rate swaps and forward exchange contracts as cash flow hedges to manage our exposure to interest rate and foreign exchange rate changes.

This lossgain will be reclassified to income or expenseearnings over the next nine12 months.


In 2022, we utilized forward foreign exchange contracts as fair value hedges of the foreign exchange risk associated with available-for-sale securities. At Sept. 30, 2023, there were no remaining foreign exchange contracts. Forward points are designated as an excluded component and amortized into earnings over the hedge period.

Forward foreign exchange contracts are also used to hedge the value of our net investments in foreign subsidiaries. These forward foreign exchange contracts have maturities of less than two years.one year. The derivatives employed are designated as hedges of changes in value of our foreign investments due to exchange rates. Changes in the value of the forward foreign exchange contracts offset the changes in value of the foreign investments due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The change in fair market value of these forward foreign exchange contracts is deferred and reported within foreign currency translation adjustments in shareholders’ equity, net of tax. At Sept. 30, 2017,2023, forward foreign exchange contracts with notional amounts totaling $7.8$9.4 billion were designated as net investment hedges.

Trading activities (including trading derivatives)


Our trading activities are focused on acting as a market-maker for our customers, facilitating customer trades and risk-mitigating economic hedging in compliance with the Volcker Rule. The change in the fair value of the derivatives utilized in our trading activities is recorded in foreign exchange revenue and investment and other revenue on the consolidated income statement.

The following table presents our foreign exchange revenue and other trading revenue.

Foreign exchange revenue and other trading revenue

Foreign exchange revenue$154 $158 $203 $488 $632 
Other trading revenue86 53 65 184 115 


Foreign exchange revenue includes income from purchasing and selling foreign currencies, currency forwards, futures and options as well as foreign currency remeasurement. Other trading revenue reflects results from trading in cash instruments, including fixed income and equity securities, and
trading and economic hedging activity with non-foreign exchange derivatives.

We also use derivative financial instruments as risk-mitigating economic hedges, which are not formally designated as accounting hedges. This includes hedging the foreign currency, interest rate or market risks inherent in some of our balance sheet exposures, such as seed capital investments and deposits, as well as certain investment management fee revenue streams. We also use total return swaps to economically hedge obligations arising from the Company’s deferred compensation plan whereby the participants defer compensation and earn a return linked to the performance of investments they select. The gains or losses on these total return swaps are recorded in staff expense on the consolidated income statement and were losses of $11 million in the third quarter of 2023 and $11 million in the third quarter of 2022, gains of $8 million in the second quarter of 2023 and $4 million in the first nine months of 2023 and a loss of $54 million in the first nine months of 2022.

We manage trading risk through a system of position limits, a VaRvalue-at-risk (“VaR”) methodology based on historical simulation and other market sensitivity

measures. Risk is monitored and reported to senior management by a separate unit, independent from trading, on a daily basis. Based on certain assumptions, the VaR methodology is designed to capture the potential overnight pre-tax dollar loss from adverse changes in fair values of all trading positions. The calculation assumes a one-dayone-day holding period, utilizes a 99% confidence level and incorporates non-linear product characteristics. The VaR model is one of several statistical models used to develop economic capital results, which are allocated to lines of business for computing risk-adjusted performance.


As the VaR methodology does not evaluate risk attributable to extraordinary financial, economic or other occurrences,occurrences. As a result, the risk assessment process includes a number of stress scenarios based upon the risk factors in the portfolio and management’s assessment of market conditions. Additional stress scenarios based upon historical market events are also performed. Stress tests may incorporate the impact of reduced market liquidity and the breakdown of historically observed correlations and extreme scenarios. VaR and other statistical measures, stress testing and sensitivity analysis are incorporated ininto other risk management materials.

Foreign exchange revenue includes income from purchasing and selling foreign currencies and currency forwards, futures and options. Other trading revenue reflects results from futures and forward contracts, interest rate swaps, structured foreign currency swaps, options, equity derivatives and fixed income and equity securities.


Counterparty credit risk and collateral


We assess the credit risk of our counterparties through regular examination of their financial statements, confidential communication with the management of those counterparties and regular monitoring of publicly available credit rating information. This and other information is used to develop proprietary credit rating metrics used to assess credit quality.


Collateral requirements are determined after a comprehensive review of the credit quality of each counterparty. Collateral is generally held or pledged in the form of cash and/or highly liquid government securities. Collateral requirements are monitored and adjusted daily.


Additional disclosures concerning derivative financial instruments are provided in Note 14 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.15.


Disclosure of contingent features in OTCover-the-counter (“OTC”) derivative instruments


Certain OTC derivative contracts and/or collateral agreements contain credit risk-contingent features
triggered upon a rating downgrade in which the counterparty has the right to request additional collateral or the right to terminate the contracts in a net liability position.

The following table shows the aggregate fair value of OTC derivative contracts in net liability positions that contained credit risk-contingent features and the value of collateral that has been posted.

BNY Mellon’s repurchase agreements and securities lending transactions primarily encounter risk associated with liquidity. We are required to pledge collateral based on predetermined terms within the agreements. If we were to experience a decline in the fair value of the collateral pledged for these transactions, we could be required to provide
additional collateral to the counterparty, therefore decreasing the amount of assets available for other liquidity needs that may arise. BNY Mellon also offers tri-party collateral agency services in the tri-party repo market where we are exposed to credit risk. In order to mitigate this risk, we require dealers to fully secure intraday credit.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(continued)

Note 17 - 18–Commitments and contingent liabilities


Off-balance sheet arrangements


In the normal course of business, various commitments and contingent liabilities are outstanding that are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.


Our significant trading and off-balance sheet risks are securities, foreign currency and interest rate risk management products, commercial lending commitments, letters of credit and securities lending indemnifications. We assume these risks to reduce interest rate and foreign currency risks, to provide customers with the ability to meet credit and liquidity needs and to hedge foreign currency and interest rate risks. These items involve, to varying degrees, credit, foreign currency and interest rate riskrisks not recognized on the balance sheet. Our off-balance sheet risks are managed and monitored in manners similar to those used for on-balance sheet risks.

(a)Net of participations totaling $184 million at Sept. 30, 2023 and $175 million at Dec. 31, 2022.

(b)Excludes the indemnification for securities for which BNY Mellon acts as an agent on behalf of CIBC Mellon clients, which totaled $60 billion at Sept. 30, 2023 and $64 billion at Dec. 31, 2022.
(c)Includes cash collateral, invested in indemnified repurchase agreements, held by us as securities lending agent of $48 billion at Sept. 30, 2023 and $43 billion at Dec. 31, 2022.


The total potential loss on undrawn lending commitments, standby and commercial letters of credit and securities lending indemnifications is equal to the total notional amount if drawn upon, which does not consider the value of any collateral.


Since many of the lending commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. A summary of lending commitment maturities is as follows: $29.8$28.8 billion in less than one year, $20.0$19.5 billion in one to five years and $158$337 million over five years.


Standby letters of credit (“SBLC”)SBLCs principally support obligations of corporate obligationsclients and were collateralized with cash and securities of $178$145 million at Sept. 30, 20172023 and $293$144 million at Dec. 31, 2016.2022. At Sept. 30, 2017, $2.32023, $1.3 billion of the SBLCs will expire within one year, and $1.2 billion$634 million in one to five years and $48$8 million in over five years.


We must recognize, at the inception of an SBLC and foreign and other guarantees, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The fair value of the liability, which was recorded with a corresponding asset in other assets, was estimated as the present value of contractual customer fees. The estimated liability for losses related to SBLCs and foreign and other guarantees, if any, is included in the allowance for lending-related commitments. The allowance for lending-related commitments was $104 million at Sept. 30, 2017 and $112 million at Dec. 31, 2016.


Payment/performance risk of SBLCs is monitored using both historical performance and internal ratings criteria. BNY Mellon’s historical experience is that SBLCs typically expire without being funded. SBLCs below investment grade are monitored closely for payment/performance risk. The table below shows SBLCs by investment grade:


Standby letters of creditSept. 30, 2023Dec. 31, 2022
Investment grade74 %75 %
Non-investment grade26 %25 %

A commercial letter of credit is normally a short-term instrument used to finance a commercial contract for the shipment of goods from a seller to a buyer. Although the commercial letter of credit is contingent upon the satisfaction of specified conditions, it represents a credit exposure if the buyer defaults on the underlying transaction. As a result, the total contractual amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Commercial letters of credit totaled $265$51 million at Sept. 30, 20172023 and $339$19 million at Dec. 31, 2016.2022.


We expect many of the lending commitments and letters of credit to expire without the need to advance any cash. The revenue associated with guarantees frequently depends on the credit rating of the obligor and the structure of the transaction, including collateral, if any.
The allowance for lending-related commitments was $85 million at Sept. 30, 2023 and $78 million at Dec. 31, 2022.

A securities lending transaction is a fully collateralized transaction in which the owner of a security agrees to lend the security (typically through an agent, in our case, The Bank of New York Mellon), to a borrower, usually a broker-dealer or bank, on an open, overnight or term basis, under the terms of a prearranged contract, which normally matures in less than 90 days.contract.


We typically lend securities with indemnification against borrower default. We generally require the borrower to provide collateral with a minimum value of102% of the fair value of the securities borrowed, which is monitored on a daily basis, thus reducing credit risk. Market risk can also arise in securities lending transactions. These risks are controlled through policies limiting the level of risk that can be undertaken. Securities lending transactions are generally entered into only with highly rated counterparties. Securities lending indemnifications

CIBC Mellon, a joint venture between BNY Mellon and the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (“CIBC”), engages in securities lending activities.  CIBC Mellon, BNY Mellon and CIBC jointly and severally indemnify securities lenders against specific types of borrower default. At Sept. 30, 20172023 and Dec. 31, 2016, $652022, $60 billion and $61$64 billion, respectively, of borrowings at CIBC Mellon, for which BNY Mellon acts as agent on behalf of CIBC Mellon clients, were secured by collateral of $69$63 billion and $64$68 billion, respectively. If, upon a default, a borrower’s collateral was not sufficient to cover its related obligations, certain losses related to the indemnification could be covered by the indemnitors.


Unsettled repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements

In the normal course of business, we enter into repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements that settle at a future date. In repurchase agreements, BNY Mellon receives cash from and provides securities as collateral to a counterparty at settlement. In reverse repurchase agreements, BNY Mellon advances cash to and receives securities as collateral from the counterparty at settlement. These transactions are recorded on the consolidated balance sheet on the settlement date. At Sept. 30, 2023, we had no unsettled repurchase agreements and $65.9 billion of unsettled reverse repurchase agreements. At Dec. 31, 2022, we had $4.0 billion of unsettled repurchase agreements and $11.3 billion of unsettled reverse repurchase agreements.

BNY Mellon is a sponsoring member in the FICC sponsored member program, where we submit eligible repurchase and reverse repurchase transactions in U.S. Treasury and agency securities (“Sponsored Member Transactions”) between BNY Mellon and our sponsored member clients for certain administrative errors

Innovation and clearing through FICC pursuant to the FICC Government Securities Division rulebook (the “FICC Rules”). We also guarantee to FICC the prompt and full payment and performance of our sponsored member clients’ respective obligations under the FICC Rules in connection with certain offshore tax-exempt funds that we manage, we may be liable to the fundssuch clients’ Sponsored Member Transactions. We minimize our credit exposure under this guaranty by obtaining a security interest in our sponsored member clients’ collateral and rights under Sponsored Member Transactions. See “Offsetting assets and liabilities” in Note 17 for certain administrative errors. The errors relate to the resident status of such funds, potentially exposing the Company to a tax liability related to the funds’ earnings. The Company is in discussions with tax authorities regarding the funds. We believe we are appropriately accruedadditional information on our repurchase and the additional reasonably possible exposure is not significant.reverse repurchase agreements.


Indemnification arrangements

related to providing financial services that are not otherwise included above. Insurance has been purchased to mitigate certain of these risks. Generally, there are no stated or notional amounts included in these indemnifications, and the contingencies triggering the obligation for indemnification are not expected to occur. Furthermore, often counterparties to these transactions provide us with comparable indemnifications. We are unable to develop an estimate of the maximum payout under these


BNY Mellon 99

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(continued)

indemnifications for several reasons. In addition to the lack of a stated or notional amount in a majority of such indemnifications, we are unable to predict the nature of events that would trigger indemnification or the level of indemnification for a certain event. We believe, however, that the possibility that we will have to make any material payments for these indemnifications is remote. At Sept. 30, 20172023 and Dec. 31, 2016,2022, we have not recorded any material liabilities under these arrangements.


Clearing and settlement exchanges


We are a noncontrolling equity investor in, and/or member of, several industry clearing or settlement exchanges through which foreign exchange, securities, derivatives or other transactions settle. Certain of these industry clearing and settlement exchanges require their members to guarantee their obligations and liabilities and/or to provide liquidity support in the event other members do not honor their obligations. We believe the likelihood that a clearing or settlement exchange (of which we are a member) would become insolvent is remote. Additionally, certain settlement exchanges have implemented loss allocation policies that enable the exchange to allocate settlement losses to the members of the exchange. It is not possible to quantify such mark-to-market loss until the loss occurs. Any ancillary costs that occur as a result of any mark-to-market loss cannot be quantified. In addition, we also sponsor clients as members on clearing and settlement exchanges and guarantee their obligations. At Sept. 30, 20172023 and Dec. 31, 2016,2022, we havedid not recordedrecord any material liabilities under these arrangements.


Legal proceedings


In the ordinary course of business, BNYThe Bank of New York Mellon Corporation and its subsidiaries are routinely named as defendants in or made parties to pending and potential legal actions. We also are subject to governmental and regulatory examinations,
information-gathering requests, investigations and proceedings (both formal and informal). Claims for significant monetary damages are often asserted in many of these legal actions, while claims for disgorgement, restitution, penalties and/or other remedial actions or sanctions may be sought in governmental and regulatory matters. It is inherently difficult to predict the eventual outcomes of such matters given their complexity and the particular facts and circumstances at issue in each of these matters. However, on the basis of our current
knowledge and understanding, we do not believe that judgments, settlements or orders, if any, arising from these matters (either individually or in the aggregate, after giving effect to applicable reserves and insurance coverage) will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or liquidity of BNY Mellon, although they could have a material effect on net incomeour results of operations in a given period.


In view of the inherent unpredictability of outcomes in litigation and governmental and regulatory matters, particularly where (i) the damages sought are substantial or indeterminate, (ii) the proceedings are in the early stages, or (iii) the matters involve novel legal theories or a large number of parties, as a matter of course there is considerable uncertainty surrounding the timing or ultimate resolution of litigation and governmental and regulatory matters, including a possible eventual loss, fine, penalty or business impact, if any, associated with each such matter. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, BNY Mellon establisheswe establish accruals for litigation and governmental and regulatory matters when those matters proceed to a stage where they present loss contingencies that are both probable and reasonably estimable. In such cases, there may be a possible exposure to loss in excess of any amounts accrued. BNY Mellon will continue toWe regularly monitor such matters for developments that could affect the amount of the accrual, and will adjust the accrual amount as appropriate. If the loss contingency in question is not both probable and reasonably estimable, BNY Mellon doeswe do not establish an accrual and the matter will continuecontinues to be monitored for any developments that would make the loss contingency both probable and reasonably estimable. BNY Mellon believesWe believe that itsour accruals for legal proceedings are appropriate and, in the aggregate, are not material to the consolidated financial position of BNY Mellon, although future accruals could have a material effect on net incomethe results of operations in a given period. In addition, if we have the potential to recover a portion of an estimated loss from a third party, we record a

receivable up to the amount of the accrual that is probable of recovery.

For certain of those matters described here for which a loss contingency may, in the future, be reasonably possible (whether in excess of a related accrued liability or where there is no accrued liability), BNY Mellon is currently unable to estimate a range of reasonably possible loss. For those matters described here where BNY Mellon is able to estimate a reasonably possible loss, the aggregate range of such reasonably possible loss is up to $940$590 millionin excess of the accrued liability (if any) related to those matters.
For matters where a reasonably possible loss is denominated in a foreign currency, our estimate is adjusted quarterly based on prevailing exchange rates. We do not consider potential recoveries when estimating reasonably possible losses.

The following describes certain judicial, regulatory and arbitration proceedings involving BNY Mellon:


Mortgage-Securitization Trusts Proceedings
The Bank of New YorkBNY Mellon has been named as a defendant in a number of legal actions brought by MBS investors alleging that the trustee has expansive duties under the governing agreements, including the duty to investigate and pursue breach of representation and warranty claims against other parties to the MBS transactions.

Matters Related to R. Allen Stanford
In late December 2005, Pershing LLC (“Pershing”) became a clearing firm for Stanford Group Co. (“SGC”), a registered broker-dealer that was part of a group of entities ultimately controlled by R. Allen Stanford (“Stanford”). Stanford International Bank, (“SIB”), also controlled by Stanford, issued certificates of deposit (“CDs”). Some investors allegedly wired funds from their SGC accounts to purchase CDs. In 2009, the SECSecurities and Exchange Commission charged Stanford with operating a Ponzi scheme in connection with the sale of CDs, and SGC was placed into receivership. Alleged purchasers of CDs have
filed 15 lawsuits against Pershing that are pending in Texas, including two putative class actions.action proceedings against Pershing: one in November 2009 in Texas federal court, and one in May 2016 in New Jersey federal court. On Nov. 5, 2021, the court dismissed the class action filed in New Jersey and that matter has concluded. Three lawsuits remain against Pershing in Louisiana and New Jersey federal courts, which were filed in January 2010, October 2015 and May 2016. The purchasers allege that Pershing, as SGC’s clearing firm, assisted Stanford in a fraudulent scheme and assert contractual, statutory and common law claims. In March 2019, a group of investors filed a putative class action against The remaining FINRABank of New York Mellon in New Jersey federal court, making the same allegations as in the prior actions brought against Pershing. On Nov. 12, 2021, the court dismissed the class action hasagainst The Bank of New York Mellon; on Dec. 15, 2022, an appeals court reversed the dismissal and returned the case to the trial court for further proceedings. All the cases that have been resolved and dismissed.brought in federal court against Pershing have been consolidated in Texas federal court for discovery purposes. Various alleged Stanford CD purchasers asserted similar claims in Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) arbitration proceedings.

German Tax Matters
Depositary Receipt Pre-Release Inquiry
German authorities are investigating past “cum/ex” trading, which involved the purchase of equity securities on or shortly before the dividend date, but settled after that date, potentially resulting in an unwarranted refund of withholding tax. German authorities have taken the view that past cum/ex trading may have resulted in tax avoidance or evasion. European subsidiaries of BNY Mellon have been informed by German authorities about investigations into potential cum/ex trading by certain third-party investment funds, where one of the subsidiaries had acquired entities that served as depositary and/or fund manager for those third-party investment funds. We have received information requests from the authorities relating to pre-acquisition activity and are cooperating fully with those requests. In August 2019, the District Court of Bonn ordered that one of these subsidiaries be joined as a secondary party in connection with the prosecution of unrelated individual defendants. Trial commenced in September 2019. In March 2014,2020, the Staffcourt stated that it would refrain from taking action against the subsidiary in order to expedite the conclusion of the U.S. Securitiestrial. The court convicted the unrelated individual defendants, and Exchange Commission’s Enforcement Division (the “Staff”) commenceddetermined that the cum/ex trading activities of the relevant third-party investment funds were unlawful. In November and December 2020 and February 2023, we received secondary liability notices from the German tax authorities totaling approximately $150 million (at then-prevailing exchange rates) related to pre-acquisition activity in various funds for which the entities we acquired were depositary and/or fund manager. We have appealed the notices. In connection with the acquisition of the subject entities, we obtained an investigation into certain issuers of American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), including BNY Mellon,indemnity for liabilities from the period of 2011sellers that we intend to 2015. pursue as necessary.

Off-Channel Business-Related Communications
The Company has been responding to a request for information from the SEC concerning compliance with recordkeeping obligations relating to business communications transmitted on unapproved electronic communication platforms. SEC Staff has issued several requests to BNY Mellon for information relating to the pre-release of ADRs. In May 2017, BNY Mellon began discussionsstated that it is conducting similar inquiries into recordkeeping practices at other financial institutions. The Company is cooperating with the Staff aboutinquiry. In April 2023, the Company received a possible resolution ofsimilar request from the investigation. BNY Mellon has fully cooperatedCommodity Futures Trading Commission and is cooperating with this matter.that inquiry as well.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures


Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, with participation by the members of the Disclosure Committee, has responsibility for ensuring that there is an adequate and effective process for establishing, maintaining, and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our SEC reports is timely recorded, processed, summarized and reported and that information required to be disclosed by BNY Mellon is accumulated and communicated to BNY Mellon’s management to allow timely decisions regarding the required disclosure. In addition, our ethics hotline can also be used by employees and others for the anonymous communication of concerns about financial controls or reporting matters. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.


As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.


Changes in internal control over financial reporting


In the ordinary course of business, we may routinely modify, upgrade or enhance our internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act during the third quarter of 20172023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II - Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.


The information required by this Item is set forth in the “Legal proceedings” section in Note 1718 of the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which portion is incorporated herein by reference in response to this item.


Item 1A. Risk Factors

The following discussion supplements the discussion of risk factors that could affect our business, financial condition or results of operations set forth in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, on pages 90 through 116 of our 2016 Annual Report. The discussion of Risk Factors, as so supplemented, sets forth our most significant risk factors that could affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. However, other factors, besides that discussed below or in our 2016 Annual Report or other of our reports filed with or furnished to the SEC, also could adversely affect our business or results. We cannot assure you that the risk factors described below or elsewhere in this report and such other reports address all potential risks that we may face. These risk factors also serve to describe factors which may cause our results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements included herein or in other documents or statements that make reference to this Form 10-Q. See Forward-looking Statements.

If our resolution plan is determined not to be credible or not to facilitate an orderly resolution under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, our business, reputation, results of operations and financial condition could be materially negatively impacted. The application of our Title I preferred resolution strategy or resolution under the Title II orderly liquidation authority could adversely affect our liquidity and financial condition and our security holders.

Large BHCs must develop and submit to the Federal Reserve and the FDIC for review plans for their rapid and orderly resolution in the event of material financial distress or failure. BNY Mellon and The Bank of New York Mellon each file periodic complementary resolution plans. In April 2016, the Federal Reserve and the FDIC jointly determined that our 2015 resolution plan was not credible or would not facilitate an orderly resolution under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The agencies issued a joint notice of deficiencies and shortcomings and the actions that
must be taken to address them, which we responded to in an Oct. 1, 2016 submission. In December 2016, the agencies jointly determined that our Oct. 1, 2016 submission adequately remedied the identified deficiencies. If the agencies determine that our future submissions are not credible or would not facilitate an orderly resolution under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, and we fail to address the deficiencies in a timely manner, the agencies may jointly impose more stringent capital, leverage or liquidity requirements or restrictions on our growth, activities or operations. If we continue to fail to adequately remedy any deficiencies identified in future submissions, we could be required to divest assets or operations that the agencies determine necessary to facilitate our orderly resolution.

Following the receipt of feedback from the Federal Reserve and the FDIC in April 2016 on our 2015 resolution plan, we determined that, in the event of our material financial distress or failure, our preferred resolution strategy under Title I of the Dodd-Frank Act is a single point of entry strategy.

In connection with our single point of entry resolution strategy, we have established the IHC to facilitate the provision of capital and liquidity resources to certain key subsidiaries in the event of material financial distress or failure. In the second quarter of 2017, we entered into a binding support agreement that required the IHC to provide that support. The support agreement required the Parent to transfer its intercompany loans and most of its cash to the IHC, and requires the Parent to continue to transfer cash and other liquid financial assets to the IHC.

If our projected liquidity resources deteriorate so severely that resolution of the Parent becomes imminent, the committed line of credit the IHC provided to the Parent will automatically terminate, with all amounts outstanding becoming due and payable, and the support agreement will require the Parent to transfer most of its remaining assets (other than stock in subsidiaries and a cash reserve to fund bankruptcy expenses) to the IHC. As a result, during a period of severe financial stress the Parent might commence bankruptcy proceedings at an earlier time than it otherwise would if the support agreement had not been implemented.

If the Parent were to become subject to a bankruptcy proceeding and our single point of entry strategy is successful, creditors of some or all of our material


BNY Mellon 109

Part II - Other Information (continued)


entities would receive full recoveries on their claims, while the Parent’s security holders, including unsecured debt holders, could face significant losses, potentially including the loss of their entire investment. It is possible that the application of the single point of entry strategy – in which the Parent would be the only legal entity to enter resolution proceedings – could result in greater losses to holders of our unsecured debt securities and other securities than the losses that could result from the application of a different resolution strategy. Further, if the single point of entry strategy is not successful, our liquidity and financial condition would be adversely affected and our security holders may, as a consequence, be in a worse position than if the strategy had not been implemented.

In addition, Title II of the Dodd-Frank Act established an orderly liquidation process in the event of the failure of a large systemically important financial institution, such as BNY Mellon, in order to avoid or mitigate serious adverse effects on the U.S. financial system. Specifically, when a U.S. G-SIB, such as BNY Mellon is in default or danger of default, and certain specified conditions are met, the FDIC may be appointed receiver under the orderly liquidation authority, and BNY Mellon would be resolved under that authority instead of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

U.S. supervisors have indicated that a single point of entry strategy may be a desirable strategy to resolve a large financial institution such as BNY Mellon under Title II in a manner that would, similar to our preferred strategy under our Title I resolution plan, impose losses on shareholders, unsecured debt holders and other unsecured creditors of the top-tier holding company (in our case, the Parent), while permitting the holding company’s subsidiaries to continue to operate and remain solvent. Under such a strategy, assuming the Parent entered resolution proceedings and its subsidiaries remained solvent, losses at the subsidiary level could be transferred to the Parent and ultimately borne by the Parent’s security holders (including holders of the Parent’s unsecured debt securities), while third-party creditors of the Parent’s subsidiaries would receive full recoveries on their claims. Accordingly, the Parent’s security holders (including holders of unsecured debt securities and other unsecured creditors) could face losses in excess of what otherwise would have been the case.
