Summary
The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (BK) reported its second quarter 2020 results, showing resilience amidst a challenging economic environment. Net income applicable to common shareholders was $901 million, or $1.01 per diluted common share, a slight decrease from $969 million, or $1.01 per diluted common share, in the prior year's second quarter. Total revenue increased by 2% year-over-year to $4.0 billion, driven primarily by a 2% increase in fee revenue, which benefited from higher fees in Asset Servicing and Pershing, partially offset by money market fee waivers and lower investment management fees. Net interest revenue saw a 3% decrease due to lower interest rates, though this was partially mitigated by lower funding costs and increased deposits. The company's capital position remained strong, with a CET1 ratio of 12.6% under the Advanced Approaches. BNY Mellon's business segments showed varied performance, with Investment Services revenue up 3% and AUC/A growing 5% to $37.3 trillion, while Investment and Wealth Management revenue decreased 3%, although AUM increased 6% to $2.0 trillion. The company also highlighted its proactive management of the challenging macroeconomic outlook, including increased provision for credit losses and continued investments in technology. Regulatory capital ratios remained robust, comfortably exceeding minimum requirements. Management emphasized its commitment to supporting clients and maintaining capital strength during the ongoing economic uncertainty.
