Cautionary Statement 1 A number of statements in our presentations, the accompanying slides and the responses to your questions are “forward- looking statements.” These statements relate to, among other things, The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation’s (the “Corporation”) expectations regarding: Investment Management’s positioning for growth; the Fed Funds Effective rate and impact of increases on our business; signs of an abatement in Corporate Trust run-off, and positive growth; our strong capital position and return on tangible equity; projected margin impacts of investment management initiatives; our ability to perform well in stress scenarios and maintain our high payout ratios; our 2014 capital plan; expense control plans and investing for organic growth; strengthening regulatory / compliance and risk management; cross-business solutions; the benefits to having investment management and investment services under one company; our business model’s ability to drive shareholder value; possible gains relating to real estate sales; changes in technology and staffing; our growth position; and statements regarding the Corporation's aspirations, as well as the Corporation’s overall plans, strategies, goals, objectives, expectations, estimates, intentions, targets, opportunities and initiatives. These forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that involve risks and uncertainties and that are subject to change based on various important factors (some of which are beyond the Corporation’s control). Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied as a result of the factors described under “Forward Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 (the “2013 Annual Report”), and in other filings of the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Such forward-looking statements speak only as of April 8, 2014, and the Corporation undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after that date or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Non-GAAP Measures: In this presentation we may discuss some non-GAAP adjusted measures in detailing the Corporation’s performance. We believe these measures are useful to the investment community in analyzing the financial results and trends of ongoing operations. We believe they facilitate comparisons with prior periods and reflect the principal basis on which our management monitors financial performance. Additional disclosures relating to non-GAAP adjusted measures are contained in the Corporation’s reports filed with the SEC, including the 2013 Annual Report, available at |
