Investors should note that these furnished documents (Exhibits 99.1 through 99.4) contain the core financial details for the quarter.

Frequently Asked Questions

The main purpose of this 8-K filing is to officially announce that The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation has released its financial results for the second quarter of 2014 and to provide access to the accompanying earnings release and related financial documents.

The actual financial results for the second quarter of 2014 are detailed in the exhibits furnished with this 8-K filing. Specifically, refer to Exhibit 99.1 (Earnings Release), Exhibit 99.2 (Quarterly Earnings Review), Exhibit 99.3 (Quarterly Financial Trends), and Exhibit 99.4 (Key Facts), all dated July 18, 2014.
