Description:

The Treasury department is responsible for the management of BNY Mellon’s balance sheet.

Additionally, the Treasury drives the allocation of the Firm’s financial resources across the company, balancing capital and liquidity needs and demands and works to create the appropriate financial incentives for the businesses using these scarce resources. BNY also operates in a number of countries which exposes it to the impact of changes in FX rates on earnings and capital. The Treasury Risk function is the second line of defense responsible for the oversight of liquidity risk, interest rate risk, investment portfolio mark-to-market risk, and capital risk at BNY Mellon.
