The figure for assets under management seems to be very large, as their competitors have AUM of up to $1.4 trillion, rather than $16.6 trillion as this article states.

The figure of $16.6 Trillion is assets under custody not under management. --Vivenot 10:02, 7 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:New BNY logo.jpg[edit]

Image:New BNY logo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 17:00, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have included fair use rationale as per: HSBC. However I notice that the logos representing articles about many other financial services corporations do not have fair use e.g. State Street, Citi, Morgan Stanley, Mellon etc etc. In other words, you've got your work cut out! --Vivenot 09:35, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bank of New YorkThe Bank of New York — Per WP:COMMONNAME. "The" is part of the company's common name, as it appears in their old logo before they merged with Mellon. — Y2kcrazyjoker4 (talk) 20:35, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Survey[edit]

Feel free to state your position on the renaming proposal by beginning a new line in this section with *'''Support''' or *'''Oppose''', then sign your comment with ~~~~. Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's naming conventions.
  • Oppose. No evidence given that The is actually included in the name as commonly used (as in reliable, third party sources). A corporations preferred styling is not necessarily the same as common use. From references available on the page, reliable sources such as NYT [1] and CBS [2] do not include "The" as part of the name. olderwiser 21:14, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. By their own website ("The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation") and ("The Bank of New York Company"), the company consistently uses The (initial capitalization) in front of their name. As precedent, see The New York Times. I would not use media organizations as a reference for the proper name of a company. •••Life of Riley (TC) 00:15, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Constitution of the Bank of New York[edit]

Does anyone have any links to the actual text of the Constitution that Alexander Hamilton wrote for the Bank of New New York? I would like to create a new page on wikipedia on that subject so that the link on this page to the constitution leads to it and not to the current page which is just a page on constitutions in general.Jacob2342 (talk) 20:36, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Date of foundation[edit]

The Bank of New York was organized March 15, 1784 ... and ... opened its offices on June 9, 1784 in the Walton House at 67 St. George′s Square.

The information is taken from Edward Streeter′s Window on America published by the Bank of New York (1971) (amazon.com) and the text referred to is available online here and there. --Tulipanos (talk) 16:29, 24 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
