Mission Critical, Trust-based Services To Customers Create Barriers to Entry
Large providers can leverage economies of scale to deliver custody services at significantly lower costs than small competitors Custody involves large fixed costs to build out each processing service for the first customer
of that service
< 8 >
Economies of Scale
Preference to centralize back office with a single custody bank provider to maintain centralized oversight of operationsCustomers build their back-office infrastructure around the custodian Significant time and resources required to establish a custodial service relationship (3 month on-boarding process)Low customer attrition with average asset servicing relationships greater than a decadeLegally enforceable multiyear service contractsMission critical services at a small price in relation to the assets of its clients (.01% of assets)

Source: M&A presentation 12/4/2006, Company presentation 11/11/08, 10K 2014(1) Core revenue adjusts for non-operating items such as securities gains (losses), FTE adjustments, discount accretion, earnings attributable to non-controlling interests of consolidated investment management funds and one-time gains / losses on asset sales (per BNY Mellon 10/28/14 Investor Day methodology)(2) Core expenses adjusted for intangible amortization, M&I, litigation and restructuring charges, support agreement charges, and charges related to investment management funds(3) Assumes $850mm of cost synergies and $375mm of revenue synergies
BK claims it achieved $850mm of expense synergies and $325 - $425mm of revenue synergies from the Mellon merger (claiming that it even exceeded its initial goals) Despite claimed synergies, revenue growth has been tepid and actual expenses have significantly outgrown revenuesClaimed synergies are dubious, as gross expenses would have massively outgrown revenues without synergy benefits

Technology Fragmentation Is A Key Source of Excess Costs
Source: Company filings, Company transcript, HBS Case Study(1) Harvard Business School Case Study: Merger of Equals: The Integration of Mellon Financial and The Bank of New York
< 34 >
And I think Ive mentioned about the challenges with the merger & acquisitions is we have so many different fragmented technology in various businesses and various products...I think the
nature of the acquisitions have resulted in lots of fragmentation of technology
- Suresh Kumar, BNY Mellon CTO, 3/13/13
Two Custody Platforms
Five Accounting Platforms
Major Redundancies- Back office headcount- Systems maintenance- Application development- Reporting costs
The traditional approach for any of these acquisitions is steeped in the thesis that youll see more synergies the more simplified your back end, and the more common systems you share, especially those that benefit from scale. Thats been time-tested in the trust banking business
- Tim Keaney, Former BNY Mellon CEO Investment Services, 2010(1)
One of the things that is really setting us apart [from our competitors] post-transformation is the fact that we do have one global platform...When we spend dollars to build the future
functionality, we do it once. And then we leverage it across the world. If you have six accounting platforms and you were doing a regulatory change six times, thats 1/6 the IT efficiency

Despite a commitment to investments, Management does not appear equally committed to growth BKs normalized revenue growth targets are well below State StreetsRevenue growth disparity is striking because:1. BK has greater interest rate sensitivity than State Street 2. BK derives a greater mix of revenue from faster-growing asset management business lines3. BK has greater breadth of capabilities that should drive superior growth from cross-selling

costs. Investors would need to believe that BNY Mellon experienced more absolute dollar headwinds than a peer that generates >2x in revenue and operates in business lines with greater regulatory and legal scrutiny

Lou Gerstner, CEO of IBM (1993 2002):
I announced Operation Bear Hug. Each of the fifty members of the senior management team was to visit a minimum of five of our biggest customers during the next three months. The executives were to listen, to show the customer that we cared, and to implement holding action as appropriate. Each of their direct reports (a total of more than 200 executives) was to do the same. For each Bear Hug visit, I asked that a one- to two-page report be sent to me and anyone else who could solve that customers problems
Senior leadership should be hands-on and actively focus on cultivating client relationships, and the CEO needs to be active as the face of the firm to clients

3. Aggressive Headcount Reduction Initiative (contd)
< 98 >
Lou Gerstner, CEO of IBM (1993 2002):
If we have too many people, lets right-size fast; lets get it done by the end of the third quarter. I explained that what I meant by right-size is straightforward: We have to benchmark our costs versus our competitors and then achieve best-in-class status. I also remarked that we had to stop saying that IBM didnt lay off people
Ive had a lot of experience turning around troubled companies, and one of the first things I learned was that whatever hard or painful things you have to do, do them quickly and make sure everyone knows what you are doing and why. Whether dwelling on a problem, hiding a problem or dribbling out partial solutions to a problem while you wait for a high tide to raise your boat dithering and delay almost always compound a negative situation. I believe in getting the problem behind me quickly and moving on

5. Culture of Effectiveness, Urgency and Accountability
< 103 >
Employee Feedback
Almost no career opportunities, non-existent training, terrible technology infrastructure, and overly bureaucratic. The fact that there is actually a committee to oversee other committees that set internal policies kind of says it all. Unimaginative senior management that is always reacting to competition. Bloated middle management while underinvesting in products, services, and line employees that actually drive revenues.
Depending on your point-of-view there aren't high standards for performance. It seems people get rewarded for providing the bare minimum and it seems cultural. Working with other service groups is a nightmare as that culture seems pervasive.
They have an if it's not broke, don't fix it mentality, so the creativity and energy needed to drive ideas forward can only be done if you're truly passionate about what you do...But, I will say that it's near-impossible to get fired, so job security is incredible.
The merger, even six years later, still shows signs of growing pains. Advancement is nearly stagnant and so are the salaries. Communication between the various departments is a struggle and they're constantly shuffling and consolidating.

Modernize the culture, with compensation to match lean, faster, and commercially intenseEmployee feedback repeatedly emphasizes a culture of bureaucracy, lifetime employment, stifled creativity, out-of-touch leadership, lack of business integration and poor communication

5. Culture of Effectiveness, Urgency and Accountability (contd)
< 104 >
Employee Feedback
There seems to be a fairly large number of individuals who don't know what the company does beyond their own responsibilities and they are ok with that. There is little global awareness.
Politics, dysfunctional org structure, misalignment of systems, and the legacy of two strong financial institutions that have never really merged.
Invest more in technology and training employees on topics that matter. Keep morale up in the company and take better steps to retain talented employees.
Main challenge is navigating the variety of corporate cultures which exist due to the lack of integration.Advice to Management: Focus on integrating, focus on the experienced employees, and consolidate the top three tiers of management.
Senior Executives and Senior Mgmt who have been with BONY for 15+ years are not the ones who will lead the bank to new successful strategies and profitability.
Very large company that can't get out of its own way. Bureaucracies are overwhelming, overly risk averse; little opportunity to make a value added contribution to the business of one's own client group...Stated initiatives by Chairman to improve on bureaucracies do not make it down to the operational level because people are fearful of losing their jobs (presumably). People are stifled of creativity and line managers are fearful to support and create change for fear of losing job. Massive culture change is needed.
