PART I
- ------

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS
- -----------------

INTRODUCTION

     The business of The Bank of New York Company, Inc. (the "Company") and
its subsidiaries is described in the Company's 2001 Annual Report to
Shareholders beginning under the heading "Global Vision with A Local Focus"
and continuing through "Retail Banking" which description is included in
Exhibit 13 to this report and incorporated herein by reference.  Also, the
"Management's Discussion and Analysis" section included in Exhibit 13 contains
financial and statistical information on the operations of the Company.  Such
information is herein incorporated by reference.

CERTAIN REGULATORY CONSIDERATIONS

General

     As a bank holding company, the Company is subject to the regulation and
supervision of the Federal Reserve Board under the Bank Holding Company Act of
1956 ("BHC Act").  The Company is also subject to regulation by the New York
State Banking Department.  Under the BHC Act, bank holding companies may not
directly or indirectly acquire the ownership or control of more than 5% of the
voting shares or substantially all of the assets of any bank or bank holding
company, without the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board.  In
addition, bank holding companies that are not financial holding companies are
generally limited to engaging in the business of banking, managing or
controlling banks, and other activities that the Federal Reserve Board has
determined to be so closely related to banking as to be a proper incident
thereto.

     Under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the "GLB Act"), which became effective
on March 11, 2000 with respect to provisions relating to powers, bank holding
companies, each of whose depository institution subsidiaries is "well
capitalized" as defined under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and "well
managed" as defined under Regulation Y under the BHC Act and which obtain at
least a "satisfactory" rating under the Community Reinvestment Act, have the
ability to declare themselves to be financial holding companies and engage in
a broader range of activities than those traditionally permissible for U.S.
bank holding companies.  The Company's declaration to become a financial
holding company became effective on August 11, 2000.  As a financial holding
company, the Company may conduct, or acquire a company (other than a U.S.
depository institution or foreign bank) engaged in, activities that are
"financial in nature," as well as additional activities that the Federal
Reserve Board determines (in the case of incidental activities, in conjunction
with the Department of the Treasury) are incidental or complementary to
financial activities, without the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board.
Under the GLB Act, activities that are financial in nature include insurance,
securities underwriting and dealing, merchant banking, and lending activities.
Under the new merchant banking authority added by the GLB Act, financial
holding companies may invest in companies that engage in activities that are
not otherwise permissible, subject to certain limitations, including that the
financial holding company makes the investment with the intention of limiting

<PAGE> 3

the investment in duration and does not manage the company on a day-to-day
basis.

     Financial holding companies that do not continue to meet all of the
requirements for financial holding company status will, depending on which
requirement they fail to meet, lose the ability to undertake new activities or
acquisitions that are financial in nature or to continue those activities that
are not generally permissible for bank holding companies.

     The Company's subsidiary banks are subject to supervision and examination
by applicable federal and state banking agencies.  The Bank of New York
("BNY"), the Company's principal banking subsidiary, is a New York chartered
banking corporation, a member of the Federal Reserve System and is subject to
regulation, supervision and examination by the Federal Reserve Board and by
the New York State Banking Department.

     Both federal and state laws extensively regulate various aspects of the
banking business, such as permissible types and amounts of loans and
investments, permissible activities, and reserve requirements.  These
regulations are intended primarily for the protection of depositors rather
than the Company's stockholders.

Capital Adequacy

     The Federal bank regulators have adopted risk-based capital guidelines
for bank holding companies and banks.  The minimum ratio of qualifying total
capital ("Total Capital") to risk-weighted assets (including certain off-
balance sheet items) is 8%.  At least half of the Total Capital must consist
of common stock, retained earnings, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock,
minority interests (including preferred trust securities) and, for bank
holding companies, a limited amount of qualifying cumulative perpetual
preferred stock, less most intangibles including goodwill ("Tier 1 Capital").
The remainder ("Tier 2 Capital") may consist of other preferred stock, certain
other instruments, and limited amounts of subordinated debt and the loan and
lease allowance.  Not more than 25% of qualifying Tier 1 Capital may consist
of preferred trust securities.

     In addition, the Federal Reserve Board has established minimum Leverage
Ratio (Tier 1 Capital to average total assets) guidelines for bank holding
companies and banks.  The Federal Reserve Board's guidelines provide for a
minimum Leverage Ratio of 3% for bank holding companies and banks that meet
certain specified criteria, including those having the highest regulatory
rating.  All other banking organizations will be required to maintain a
Leverage Ratio of at least 3% plus an additional cushion of 100 to 200 basis
points.  The guidelines also provide that banking organizations experiencing
internal growth or making acquisitions will be expected to maintain strong
capital positions substantially above the minimum supervisory levels, without
significant reliance on intangible assets.  At December 31, 2001, the Federal
Reserve Board has not advised the Company of any specific minimum Leverage
Ratio applicable to it.  See "FDICIA" below.



<PAGE> 4

Merchant Banking Capital Requirements

     The federal bank regulators have adopted rules, effective April 1, 2002,
governing the regulatory capital treatment of equity investments by the
Company in nonfinancial companies.  Such equity investments, which are
referred to as merchant banking investments, include investments made under
the merchant banking authority conferred on financial holding companies under
the GLB Act as well as pursuant to certain other authority. With certain
exceptions, the federal rules require that the Company and its bank
subsidiaries deduct from Tier 1 capital, on a marginal basis, a percentage of
the carrying value of each merchant banking investment.  Carrying value is
generally the value of the merchant banking investment as shown on the
Company's balance sheet.  The applicable percentages are set forth below:

  Aggregate Carrying Value of Covered   Required Deduction From Tier 1 Capital
  Nonfinancial Equity Investments as a  as a percentage of
  percentage of Tier 1 Capital          the Carrying Value of the Investments
  ------------------------------------  --------------------------------------

        Less than 15%                                    8%
        At least 15% but Less than 25%                  12%
        25% or more                                     25%

     It is not anticipated that the new rule will have a material effect on
the Company's capital requirements or strategic plans.

     Bank regulators on an international basis are reconsidering the current
capital guidelines. One aspect of this reconsideration is the potential
imposition of capital requirements for "operational risk". Such a capital
requirement could have a relatively greater impact on banking organizations
such as the Company and the Bank that have a high level of fee income, but,
based on current proposals, the Company does not believe that the requirement
would affect the qualification of the Company and the Bank as well
capitalized.

FDICIA

     The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991
("FDICIA") among other things, requires federal banking regulators to take
prompt corrective action in respect of FDIC-insured depository institutions
(such as BNY) that do not meet minimum capital requirements.  FDICIA
establishes five capital tiers: "well capitalized", "adequately capitalized",
"undercapitalized", "significantly undercapitalized", and "critically
undercapitalized".  A depository institution's capital tier will depend upon
how its capital levels compare to various relevant capital measures and
certain other factors, as established by regulation.  Under applicable
regulations, an FDIC-insured bank is deemed to be: (i) well capitalized if it
maintains a Leverage Ratio of at least 5%, a Tier 1 Capital Ratio of at least
6% and a Total Capital Ratio of at least 10% and is not subject to an order,
written agreement, capital directive, or prompt corrective action directive to
meet and maintain a specific level for any capital measure; (ii) adequately
capitalized if it maintains a Leverage Ratio of at least 4% (or a Leverage
Ratio of at least 3% if it is rated Composite 1 in its most recent report of
examination, subject to appropriate federal banking agency guidelines), a Tier
1 Capital Ratio of 4% and a Total Capital Ratio of at least 8% and is not
defined to be well capitalized but meets all of its minimum capital
requirements; (iii) undercapitalized if it has a Leverage Ratio of less than
4% (or a Leverage Ratio that is less than 3% if it is rated Composite 1 in its
most recent report of examination, subject to appropriate federal banking
agency guidelines), a Tier 1 Capital Ratio less than 4% or a Total Capital
Ratio of less than 8% and it does not meet the definition of a significantly
undercapitalized or critically undercapitalized institution; (iv)
significantly undercapitalized if it has a Leverage Ratio of less than 3%, a
Tier 1 Capital Ratio less than 3% or a Total Capital Ratio of less than 8% and
it does not meet the definition of critically undercapitalized; and (v)
critically undercapitalized if it maintains a level of tangible equity capital

<PAGE> 5

less than 2% of total assets.  A bank may be deemed to be in a capitalization
category that is lower than is indicated by its actual capital position if it
receives an unsatisfactory examination rating.  FDICIA imposes progressively
more restrictive constraints on operations, management and capital
distributions, depending on the capital category in which an institution is
classified.

     FDICIA generally prohibits an FDIC-insured depository institution from
making any capital distribution (including payment of dividends) or paying any
management fee to its holding company if the depository institution would
thereafter be undercapitalized.  Undercapitalized depository institutions are
subject to restrictions on borrowing from the Federal Reserve.  In addition,
undercapitalized depository institutions are subject to growth limitations and
are required to submit a capital restoration plan.  The federal banking
agencies may not accept a capital plan without determining, among other
things, that the plan is based on realistic assumptions and is likely to
succeed in restoring the depository institution's capital.  In addition, for
an undercapitalized depository institution's capital restoration plan to be
acceptable, its holding company must guarantee the capital plan up to an
amount equal to the lesser of 5% of the depository institution's assets at the
time it became undercapitalized or the amount of the capital deficiency when
the institution fails to comply with the plan.  In the event of the parent
holding company's bankruptcy, such guarantee would take priority over the
parent's general unsecured creditors.  If a depository institution fails to
submit an acceptable plan, it is treated as if it is significantly
undercapitalized.

     Significantly undercapitalized depository institutions may be subject to
a number of requirements and restrictions, including orders to sell sufficient
voting stock to become adequately capitalized, requirements to reduce total
assets and cessation of receipt of deposits from correspondent banks.
Critically undercapitalized depository institutions are subject to appointment
of a receiver or conservator.

     A depository institution that is not well capitalized is subject to
certain limitations on brokered deposits.  In addition, as indicated above, if
a depository institution is not well capitalized, its parent holding company
cannot become, and, subject to a capital restoration plan, cannot remain, a
financial holding company.

FDIC Insurance Assessments

     BNY is subject to FDIC deposit insurance assessments.  As required by
FDICIA, the FDIC adopted a risk-based premium schedule to determine the
assessment rates for most FDIC-insured depository institutions.  Effective
January 1, 1997, under the schedule, the premiums range from zero to $.27 for
every $100 of deposits.  Each financial institution is assigned to one of nine
categories based on the institution's capital ratios and supervisory
evaluations, and the premium paid by the institution is based on the category.
Under the present schedule, institutions in the highest of the three capital
categories and the highest of three supervisory categories pay no premium and
institutions in the lowest of these categories pay $.27 per $100 of deposits.
BNY paid no FDIC insurance premiums in 2001.  In addition, the Deposit
Insurance Funds Act provides for assessments at all insured depository
institutions to pay for the cost of the Financing Corporation (a governmental
agency) funding.  The assessment will be based on deposit levels and will be
approximately 2.06 basis points.

     The FDIC is authorized to raise insurance premiums in certain
circumstances. A number of factors suggest that as early as the second half of
2002, the bank deposit insurance fund could fall below its federally mandated
minimum.  If this happens, all FDIC insured banks, including BNY, will be
required to pay premiums on deposit insurance.  The amount of any such
premiums will depend on the outcome of legislative and regulatory initiatives
as well as the bank insurance fund's loss experience and other factors which
the Company is necessarily unable to predict. Any increase in premiums would
have an adverse effect on the Company's earnings.

     Under the FDICIA, insurance of deposits may be terminated by the FDIC
upon a finding that the institution has engaged in unsafe and unsound
practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations or has
violated any applicable law, regulation, rule, order, or condition imposed by
a bank's federal regulatory agency.

Depositor Preference

     The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 provides for a domestic
depositor preference on amounts realized from the liquidation or other
resolution of any depository institution insured by the FDIC.

Acquisitions

     The BHC Act generally limits acquisitions by bank holding companies that
have not qualified as financial holding companies to commercial banks and
companies engaged in activities that the Federal Reserve Board has determined
to be so closely related to banking as to be a proper incident thereto.  As a
financial holding company, however, the Company is also permitted to acquire
companies engaged in activities that are financial in nature and in activities
that are incidental and complementary to financial activities without prior
Federal Reserve Board approval.

     The BHC Act, the Federal Bank Merger Act, the New York Banking Law and
other state statutes regulate the acquisition of commercial banks.  The BHC
Act requires the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board for the direct or
indirect acquisition of more than 5% of the voting shares of a commercial
bank.

     The Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994
("IBBEA") permits bank holding companies, with Federal Reserve Board approval,
to acquire banks located in states other than the bank holding company's home
state without regard to whether the transaction is permitted under state law.
In addition, IBBEA provides that national banks and state banks with different
home states are permitted to merge across state lines, with the approval of
the appropriate federal banking agency, unless the home state of a
participating bank passed legislation between the date of enactment of IBBEA
and May 31, 1997 expressly prohibiting interstate mergers.  Most states,

<PAGE> 9

including New York, New Jersey and Connecticut have not passed legislation
prohibiting interstate mergers.  A bank may also establish and operate a de
novo branch in a state in which the bank does not maintain a branch if that
state expressly permits de novo branching.  Once a bank has established
branches in a state through an interstate merger transaction, the bank may
establish and acquire additional branches at any location in the state where
any bank involved in the interstate merger transaction could have established
or acquired branches under applicable federal or state law.  A bank that has
established a branch in a state through de novo branching may establish and
acquire additional branches in such state in the same manner and to the same
extent as a bank having a branch in such state as a result of an interstate
merger.

     The merger of BNY with another bank would require the approval of the
Federal Reserve Board or other federal bank regulatory authority and, if the
surviving bank is a New York state bank, the New York Superintendent of Banks.

     In reviewing bank acquisition and merger applications, the bank
regulatory authorities will consider, among other things, the competitive
effect of the transaction, financial and managerial issues including the
capital position of the combined organization, and convenience and needs
factors, including the applicant's record under the Community Reinvestment
Act.

     Under Federal Reserve Board policy, the Company is expected to act as a
source of financial strength to its banks and to commit resources to support
such banks in circumstances where it might not do so absent such policy.  In
addition, any loans by the Company to its banks would be subordinate in right
of payment to depositors and to certain other indebtedness of its banks.

Restrictions on Transfer of Funds

     Restrictions on the transfer of funds to the Company and subsidiary bank
dividend limitations are discussed in Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements included in Exhibit 13.  Such discussion is incorporated herein by
reference.

Cross Guarantees

     Under FDICIA, a financial institution insured by the FDIC that is under
common control with a failed or failing FDIC-insured institution can be
required to indemnify the FDIC for losses resulting from the insolvency of the
failed institution or from assistance to the failing institution, even if this
causes the affiliated institution also to become insolvent.  Any obligation or
liability owed by a subsidiary depository institution to its parent company is
subordinate to the subsidiary's cross-guarantee liability with respect to
commonly controlled insured depository institutions and to the rights of
depositors.

USA Patriot Act

     The recently enacted USA Patriot Act imposes additional obligations on US
financial institutions, including the Company's bank and broker dealer
subsidiaries, to implement policies, procedures and controls which are
reasonably designed to detect and report instances of money laundering and the
financing of terrorism.  Affected subsidiaries have started the process of
compliance with these new requirements.  The Secretary of the Treasury has
also proposed additional regulations to further implement the provisions of
the Title III of the USA Patriot Act.  Although the Company is unable to
predict when and in what form these regulations will be adopted, it is not
anticipated that the cost of compliance will have a material impact on the
Company's consolidated financial statements.

Market Risk Management
- ----------------------

     Market risk is the risk of loss due to adverse changes in the financial
markets.  Market risk arises from derivative financial instruments, such as
futures, forwards, swaps and options, and other financial instruments, such as
loans, securities, deposits and other borrowings.  The Company's market risks
are primarily interest rate and foreign exchange risk, as well as credit risk.
Market risk associated with the Company's trading activities and
asset/liability management activities is managed and controlled as discussed
under "Market Risk Management", "Trading Activities and Risk Management" and,
"Asset/Liability Management" in the "Management's Discussion and Analysis"
section of Exhibit 13.  Such discussion is incorporated herein by reference.

    The information presented with respect to market risk is forward looking
information.  As such it is subject to risks and uncertainties that could
cause actual results to differ materially from projected results discussed in
this Report.  These include adverse changes in market conditions, the timing
of such changes and the actions that management could take in response to
these changes as well as the additional factors discussed under "Forward
Looking Statements".


Credit Risk Management
- ----------------------

     Credit risk represents the possibility that the Company would suffer a
loss if a borrower or other counterparty were to default on its obligations to
the Company.  Credit risk exposure arises primarily from lending activities,
as well as from interest rate, foreign exchange, and securities processing
products.  For derivative financial instruments, total credit exposure
consists of current and potential exposure.  Current credit exposure
represents the replacement cost of the transaction.  Potential credit exposure
is a statistically based estimate of the future replacement cost of the
transaction.  The Company has established policies and procedures to manage
the level and composition of its credit risk on both a transaction and a
portfolio basis.  In managing the aggregate credit extension to individual
customers, the Company measures the amount at risk on derivative financial
instruments as the total of current and potential credit exposure.

     The Risk Management Sector is responsible for developing and maintaining
credit risk policies, as well as for overseeing and reviewing credit
guidelines.  After development, credit risk policies are reviewed and approved
by the Board of Directors.  Through the use of a credit approval process and
established credit limits, the Company evaluates the credit quality of
counterparties, industries, products, and countries.  The Company seeks to
reduce both on and off-balance-sheet credit risk through portfolio
diversification, loan participations, syndications, asset sales, credit
enhancements, risk reduction arrangements, and netting agreements.

     Although the Company attempts to minimize its exposure to credit risk,
this risk is inherent in the banking industry and can increase as a result of
general economic developments.

ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES
- -------------------
     At December 31, 2001 in New York City, the Company owned the forty-nine
story building housing its executive headquarters at One Wall Street and an
operations center at 101 Barclay Street.  The Company leases the land at the
101 Barclay Street location under a lease expiring in 2080.  In addition, the
Company owns and/or leases administrative and operations facilities in New
York City; various locations in New Jersey and Connecticut; Harrison, New
York; Newark, Delaware; Brussels, Belgium; London, England; Orlando, Florida;
Syracuse, New York; and Utica, New York.  Other real properties owned or
leased by the Company, when considered in the aggregate, are not material to
its operations. See "World Trade Center Disaster" in Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company's
Annual Report for a discussion of the impact of the World Trade Center
disaster on the Company's properties.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
- --------------------------
     The Company continues to cooperate with investigations by federal and
state law enforcement and bank regulatory authorities. The investigations
focus on funds transfer activities in certain accounts at BNY, principally
involving wire transfers from Russian and other sources in Eastern Europe, as
well as certain other matters involving BNY and its affiliates. The funds
transfer investigations center around accounts controlled by Peter Berlin, his
wife, Lucy Edwards (until discharged in September 1999, an officer of BNY),
and companies and persons associated with them. Berlin and Edwards pled guilty
to various federal criminal charges. The Company cannot predict when or on
what basis the investigations will conclude or their effect, if any, on the
Company.

     On February 8, 2000, BNY entered into a written agreement with both the
Federal Reserve Bank of New York and the New York State Banking Department,
which imposed a number of reporting requirements and controls. Substantially
all of these reporting requirements and controls are now in place.

     Four purported shareholder derivative actions have been filed in
connection with these Russian related matters - - two in the United States
District Court for the Southern District of New York and two in the New York
Supreme Court, New York County - - against certain directors and officers of
the Company and BNY alleging that the defendants have breached their fiduciary
duties of due care and loyalty by aggressively pursuing business with Russian
banks and entities without implementing sufficient safeguards and failing to
supervise properly those responsible for that business. The actions seek, on
behalf of the Company and BNY, monetary damages from the defendants,
corrective action and attorneys' fees. On September 1, 2000, plaintiffs in the
two federal actions filed an amended, consolidated complaint that names all of
the directors and certain officers of BNY and the Company as defendants,
repeats the allegations of the original complaints and adds allegations that
certain officers of BNY and the Company participated in a scheme to transfer
cash improperly from Russia to various off-shore accounts and to avoid Russian
customs, currency and tax laws. Management believes that the allegations of
both the original complaints and the amended complaint are without merit. On
September 12, 2000, the boards of directors of BNY and the Company authorized
a Special Litigation Committee ("SLC") to consider the response of BNY and the
Company to the state and federal court shareholder derivative actions. The SLC
issued an Interim Report dated May 21, 2001 which concluded that there was "no
credible evidence" to support the allegations of personal misconduct against
Mr. Renyi and "credible evidence" that contradicts "critical allegations" in
the amended complaint in the federal action.

     On August 31, 2001, defendants moved to dismiss the two actions filed in
the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.  On
November 27, 2001, the federal district court granted defendants' motion and
dismissed the two actions.  On December 19, 2001, plaintiffs filed a Notice of
Appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.  The
Court of Appeals has not yet set a briefing or argument schedule.

<PAGE> 22

     On February 1, 2002, counsel for plaintiffs in the two federal court
actions filed a shareholder derivative action in New York Supreme Court, New
York County that made allegations substantially similar to the two federal
court actions that were dismissed.  The Company and BNY requested that the New
York State Supreme Court issue and order consolidating the new state court
shareholder derivative action with the two shareholder derivative actions
previously filed.  Plaintiffs in the new shareholder derivative action have
opposed consolidation.

     The two previously filed state court derivative actions, which do not
include any allegations of personal misconduct, are still pending.  The
parties are currently undertaking court-appointed mediation.

     Additionally, on October 7, 1999, six alleged depositors of Joint Stock
Bank Inkombank ("Inkombank"), a Russian bank, filed a purported class action
in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on
behalf of all depositors of Inkombank who lost their deposits when that bank
collapsed in 1998. The complaint, as subsequently amended twice, alleges that
the Company and BNY and their senior officers knew about, and aided and
abetted the looting of Inkombank by its principals and participated in a
scheme to transfer cash improperly from Russia to various off-shore accounts
and to avoid Russian customs, currency and tax laws. The amended complaint
asserts causes of action for conversion and aiding and abetting conversion
under New York law. In addition, the amended complaint states a claim under
the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act ("RICO"). On March 21,
2001, the court dismissed the second amended complaint without leave to
replead. On January 14, 2002, the United States Court of Appeals for the
Second Circuit vacated the dismissal of the Second Amended Complaint because
it disagreed with one ground of the district court's dismissal, and remanded
the case to the lower court to consider alternate bases for dismissal.  The
Company and BNY believe that the allegations made in this action are without
merit, and intend to defend the action vigorously.

     On October 24, 2000, three alleged shareholders of Inkombank filed an
action in the Supreme Court, New York County against the Company, BNY and
Inkombank. The complaint alleges that the defendants fraudulently induced the
plaintiffs to refrain from redeeming their alleged $40 million investment in
Inkombank. The complaint asserts a single cause of action for fraud, seeking
$40 million plus 12% interest from January 1994, punitive damages, costs,
interest and attorney fees. On January 8, 2001, the Company and BNY moved to
dismiss the complaint as against them.  On January 10, 2002, the Court denied
that motion. On January 25, 2002, the Company and BNY filed their answer to
plaintiffs' complaint.  On February 14, 2002, the Company and BNY filed a
motion asking the court for leave to reargue their motion to dismiss the
complaint. The Company and BNY believe that the allegations of the complaint
are without merit and intend to defend the action vigorously.

     The Company does not expect that any of the foregoing civil actions will
have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

     In the ordinary course of business, there are various legal claims
pending against the Company and its subsidiaries. In the opinion of
management, liabilities arising from such claims, if any, would not have a
material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

The information presented with respect to, among other things, earnings
outlook, projected business growth, the outcome of legal, regulatory and
investigatory proceedings, the Company's plans, objectives and strategies
reallocating assets and moving into fee-based businesses, and future loan
losses, is forward looking information. Forward looking statements are the
Company's current estimates or expectations of future events or future
results.

     The Company or its executive officers and directors on behalf of the
Company, may from time to time make forward looking statements. When used in
this report, any press release or oral statements, the words "estimate",
"forecast", "project", "anticipate", "expect", "intend", "believe", "plan",
"goal", "should", "may", "strategy", and words of similar meaning are intended
to identify forward looking statements in addition to statements specifically
identified as forward looking statements.

     Forward looking statements, including the Company's discussions and
projections of future results of operations and discussions of future plans
contained in Management's Discussion and Analysis and elsewhere in this Form
10-K, are based on management's current expectations and assumptions and are
subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which are discussed herein, that
could cause actual results to differ materially from projected results.
Forward looking statements could be affected by a number of factors that the
Company is necessarily unable to predict with accuracy, including disruptions
in general economic activity, the economic and other effects of the WTC
disaster and the subsequent U.S. military action, lower than expected
performance or higher than expected costs in connection with acquisitions and
integration of acquired businesses, changes in relationships with customers,
the ability to satisfy customer requirements, investor sentiment, variations
in management projections, methodologies used by management to evaluate risk
or market forecasts and the actions that management could take in response to
these changes, management's ability to achieve efficiency goals, changes in
customer credit quality, future changes in interest rates, general credit
quality, the levels of economic, capital market, and merger and acquisition
activity, consumer behavior, government monetary policy, domestic and foreign
legislation, regulation and investigation, competition, credit, market and
operating risk, and loan demand, as well as the pace of recovery of the
domestic economy, market demand for the Company's products and services and
future global political, economic, business, market, competitive and
regulatory conditions.  This is not an exhaustive list and as a result of
variations in any of these factors actual results may differ materially from
any forward looking statements.

     Forward looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. The
Company will not update forward looking statements to reflect facts,
assumptions, circumstances or events which have changed after a forward
looking statement was made.

Government Monetary Policies

     The Federal Reserve Board has the primary responsibility for United
States monetary policy.  Its actions have an important influence on the demand
for credit and investments and the level of interest rates and thus on the
earnings of the Company.

Competition

     The businesses in which the Company operates are very competitive.
Competition is provided by both unregulated and regulated financial services
organizations, whose products and services span the local, national, and
global markets in which the Company conducts operations.

     Commercial banks, savings banks, savings and loan associations, and
credit unions actively compete for deposits, and money market funds and
brokerage houses offer deposit-like services.  These institutions, as well as
consumer and commercial finance companies, national retail chains, factors,
insurance companies and pension trusts, are important competitors for various
types of loans.  Issuers of commercial paper compete actively for funds and
reduce demand for bank loans.  For personal and corporate trust services and
investment counseling services, insurance companies, investment counseling
firms, and other business firms and individuals offer active competition.  A
wide variety of domestic and foreign companies compete for processing
services.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
- --------------------------------------------------------------------

     See page 15 "Market Risk Management".

     Quantitative and qualitative disclosure about market risk are

Management's Discussion and Analysis of the Company's Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

INTRODUCTION

The Bank of New York Company, Inc.'s (the "Company") actual results of future
operations may differ from those estimated or anticipated in certain forward-
looking statements contained herein for reasons which are discussed below and
under the heading "Forward Looking Statements" in the Company's Form 10-K.
When used in this report, the words "estimate", "forecast", "project",
"anticipate", "expect", "intend", "believe", "plan", "goal", "should", "may",
"strategy", and words of similar meaning are intended to identify forward
looking statements in addition to statements specifically identified as
forward looking statements.

WORLD TRADE CENTER DISASTER

The World Trade Center Disaster ("WTC disaster") on September 11, 2001 had a
significant adverse impact on the Company. Four of the Company's major
facilities as well as several smaller facilities in the downtown New York City
area containing over 8,300 employees were rendered temporarily unusable,
including the Company's principal operations and data center at 101 Barclay
St.

     The two businesses most significantly impacted by the WTC disaster were
Funds Transfer and Broker-Dealer Services due to significant disruptions in
the telecommunications infrastructure supporting market participants.
Transaction backlogs were processed within a week of the disaster and systems
have been current since that time. Reconciliations with the Federal Reserve,
depositaries, broker-dealers, and clients have been completed.

     Two of the Company's facilities near the World Trade Center, including
101 Barclay St., remain disabled. These facilities contain 1.4 million square
feet of space and accommodate 5,500 employees. The Company expects these
facilities will become available for use during 2002, although it is unable to
project the exact timing. Such availability is dependent upon the full extent
of the damage, the speed of repair work, and the actions of civil authorities.

     Immediately after the WTC disaster, displaced employees worked out of
contingency recovery sites in Northern New Jersey, Westchester County, N.Y.
and Greenwich, CT. In subsequent weeks, the Company leased 1.3 million square
feet of temporary space for these employees to relocate to on an interim
basis. The terms of these leases run from 1 to 18 years. The Company may
terminate the lease for 400,000 square feet of this space at any time. The
Company expects to sublet excess space when it is able to reoccupy its
disabled facilities. The Company expects to incur a loss on these subleases,
but the amount of that loss will be dependent on the condition of the relevant
real estate markets at the time of the subleases. The costs associated with
operating from these interim facilities is estimated at approximately $20-25
million per quarter, and the anticipated loss on subleases could exceed $150
million. The Company expects the costs incurred in connection with these
interim facilities to be covered by insurance, and accordingly will offset
them with insurance receivables as those costs are incurred.

     The Company expects to incur capital expenditures related to the WTC
disaster in a range of approximately $250 million to $350 million. These
expenditures will cover, among other things, the repair of damaged facilities,
replacement equipment, replacement furniture and fixtures and the outfitting
of new leased space. The Company expects substantial portions of these capital
expenditures to be covered by insurance.



<PAGE> 3

     The Company estimated the 2001 impact of the WTC disaster to be $242
million and recorded a $175 million insurance offset in the fourth quarter.
Additional recoveries are expected to be recorded in the future as the claim
with insurers is processed.

     To date the Company has not suffered customer defections as a result of
the disaster and any related service issues. The Company is engaged in an
active communications program with its customer base involving senior
management calling, updates on contingency plan developments and various
quality of service initiatives.

     The Company anticipates some upward pressure on technology costs as a
result of the spending associated with recovery and the need for heightened
redundancy and diversification post September 11th. It intends to continue to
manage expenses to help mitigate this impact.

     Given the extent of the impact on the Company's financial statements
resulting from the WTC disaster, the related insurance recovery and the
strategic action taken with respect to the emerging telecommunications
companies portfolio, this discussion will first review the Company's reported
results and will then provide a "normalized" estimate of operating results,
segregating these items. Management believes that the additional normalized
disclosure assists the reader in making comparisons with prior periods to
determine trends in the business. In addition, the results for 1999 have been
normalized for the sale of BNY Financial Corp. ("BNYFC"), as well as the
liquidity charge associated with an accelerated disposition of loans. See
"Summary of Normalized Results" for additional details.

SUMMARY OF REPORTED RESULTS

For the year 2001, the Company reported net income of $1,343 million or $1.81
per diluted share, compared with $1,429 million or $1.92 per diluted share in
2000 and $1,739 million or $2.27 per diluted share in 1999. Securities
servicing fees in 2001 were a record $1,750 million, a 6% increase, compared
with $1,650 million in 2000. Areas leading the increase for the year included:
execution services, corporate trust, broker-dealer services, and global
liquidity services. The Company continues to be the world's leading custodian
with year-end assets under custody of $6.9 trillion, including $1.9 trillion
of cross-border custody assets. New business growth in cash management drove
global payment services fees to $287 million, up 10%, reflecting continued
success of CA$H-Register Plus(registered trademark), the Company's
internet-based electronic banking service. Foreign exchange and other trading
revenues were $338 million, up 30% from 2000, reflecting a strong demand for
interest rate risk management products driven by declining interest rates and
higher volatility in 2001. Private client services and asset management fees
were $308 million, up 4% compared with $296 million in 2000. The Company's
continued focus on fee-based businesses resulted in noninterest income growing
to 68% of total revenue, up from 64% last year.

     In 2001, the WTC disaster resulted in a disruption of the markets,
including payment and securities processing, which affected both the Company
and other market participants. In addition, significant levels of liquidity
were injected into the markets immediately following the disaster. These
factors resulted in excess liquidity which could not be invested and unsettled
trades at the Company, causing a drop in net interest income and a temporary
expansion of the Company's balance sheet. The Company's 2001 performance
ratios reflect this temporary expansion. The 1999 ratios reflect the gain on
the sale of BNYFC.

     In 2001, return on average common equity was 21.58% compared with 26.08%
in 2000 and 34.00% in 1999, while return on average assets was 1.64% in 2001
compared with 1.85% in 2000 and 2.60% in 1999.

     Tangible diluted earnings per share (earnings before the amortization of
goodwill and intangibles) were $1.91 per share in 2001 compared with $2.03 per
share in 2000 and $2.37 per share in 1999. Tangible return on average assets
was 1.78% in 2001 compared with 2.00% in 2000 and 2.78% in 1999. Tangible
return on average common equity was 33.42% in 2001 compared with 40.00% in
2000 and 50.23% in 1999. The decreased tangible ratios in 2001 reflect the WTC
impact and accelerated disposition program for emerging telecom credits.

     In 2000, securities servicing fee revenues were up 33% to $1,650 million
reflecting particular strength in global custody, depositary receipts ("DRs"),
unit investment trust ("UIT"), and mutual funds as well as global execution
and clearing services. Fee revenue also benefited from the acquisition of the
Royal Bank of Scotland Trust Bank ("RBSTB") on October 31, 1999. Private
client services and asset management fees were up 21% to $296 million, led by
strong business flows in the BNY Hamilton Funds, as well as by the
acquisitions of Ivy Asset Management Corp. and Estabrook Capital Management,
Inc. Increased cross-selling within the securities servicing client franchise
and rapid growth in the Company's foreign exchange e-commerce initiative drove
foreign exchange and other trading revenues up 38% to $261 million in 2000
compared with $189 million in 1999. Net interest income on a taxable
equivalent basis was $1,811 million in 2000 compared with $1,633 million in
1999, benefiting from the acquisition of RBSTB, which brought approximately
$10 billion in highly liquid, short-term assets and liabilities. The provision
for credit losses decreased to $105 million from $135 million in 1999.

     In 1999, securities servicing revenues were up 24% reaching $1,245
million, reflecting particular strength in global custody, mutual funds,
securities lending, DRs, and execution services. Private client services and
asset management fees were up 17% to $244 million in 1999, led by strong
results from personal trust, personal asset management, and retail investment
products. Higher transaction flows in the Company's European securities
servicing business drove foreign exchange and other trading revenues up 12% to
$189 million in 1999 compared with $170 million in 1998. In 1999, net interest

<PAGE> 6

income on a taxable equivalent basis was $1,633 million compared with $1,614
million in 1998. The provision for credit losses increased to $135 million
from $20 million and the Company recorded a liquidity charge to noninterest
income of $124 million associated with the decision to exit a portfolio of
credits on an accelerated basis.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income is provided by a wide range of securities servicing, global
payment services, private client services and asset management, trading
activities and other fee-based services. Revenues from these activities were
$3,540 million in 2001, compared with $3,109 million in 2000 and $3,493
million in 1999.

     Securities servicing fees were $1,750 million, $1,650 million, and $1,245
million in 2001, 2000, and 1999. The 6% increase in securities servicing fees
from 2000 reflects growth in execution services, corporate trust, broker-
dealer services, and global liquidity services. Global payment services fees,
principally funds transfer, cash management, and trade finance, were $287
million in 2001, $261 million in 2000, and $274 million in 1999. The increase
in global payment services fees from 2000 reflects continued success of CA$H-
Register Plus(registered trademark), the Company's internet-based electronic
banking service, as well as customers electing to pay for services in fees
rather than maintaining higher compensating balances in a declining interest
rate environment.

     Private client services and asset management fees were $308 million in
2001, $296 million in 2000, and $244 million in 1999. The 4% increase from
2000 reflects strength in alternative investment and short-term money market
product lines.

     Service charges and fees were $356 million in 2001, compared with $364
million in 2000 and $338 million in 1999. For further discussion of fee
revenue, see Segment Profitability.

     Foreign exchange and other trading revenues were $338 million in 2001,
$261 million in 2000, and $189 million in 1999. The 30% increase from the
prior year reflects continued strong demand for interest rate risk management
products driven by declining interest rates and higher volatility during 2001.
Strong foreign exchange transaction flows from the Company's securities
servicing clients also contributed to the increase.

     Securities gains totaled $154 million, $150 million, and $199 million in
2001, 2000, and 1999.

     Other noninterest income was $347 million in 2001, $127 million in 2000,
and $1,004 million in 1999. In 2001, other income includes $175 million
insurance recovery related to the WTC disaster and $43 million gain on the
sale of the Company's interest in New York Cash Exchange ("NYCE"). In 2000,
other income includes a $26 million payment associated with the termination of
a securities clearing contract. In 1999, other noninterest income included a
$1,020 million pre-tax gain on the sale of BNYFC and $124 million liquidity
charge on loans available-for-sale.

NET INTEREST INCOME

(Dollars in millions on a
 tax equivalent basis)                      2001          2000         1999
- ----------------------                      ----          ----         ----
Net Interest Income                       $1,741        $1,811       $1,633
Net Interest Rate Spread                    1.89%         1.85%        2.07%
Net Yield on Interest Earning Assets        2.57          2.79         2.91

For 2001, net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis amounted to $1,741
million compared with $1,811 million in 2000. The decline in net interest
income in 2001 reflects several factors. First, the WTC disaster resulted in a
disruption of markets, including payment and securities processing, which
affected both the Company and other market participants. In addition,
significant levels of liquidity were injected into the markets immediately
following the disaster. These factors resulted in excess liquidity which could
not be invested and unsettled trades at the Company, causing a drop in net
interest income and a temporary expansion of the Company's balance sheet.
Second, the decline reflects the Company's ongoing strategy to shift the mix
of its assets away from loans to highly rated investment securities and short-
term liquid assets. Lastly, the decline also results from the lower value of
free funds in a declining interest rate environment. Average earning assets
were $67.7 billion up from $64.9 billion in 2000. Average loans were $38.8
billion in 2001 compared with $39.3 billion in 2000. Average securities were
$18.6 billion in 2001 up from $15.8 billion in 2000. The Company added
approximately $6 billion of mortgage and asset backed securities to its
securities portfolio in 2001. Substantially all of these securities are rated
AAA. The net interest rate spread was 1.89% in 2001 compared with 1.85% in
2000, while the net yield on interest earning assets was 2.57% in 2001 and
2.79% in 2000.

     For 2000, net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis amounted to
$1,811 million compared with $1,633 million in 1999. Average earning assets
were $64.9 billion up from $56.2 billion in 1999. The increase in average
assets is primarily attributable to the acquisition of RBSTB. Average loans
were $39.3 billion in 2000 compared with $38.9 billion in 1999. The net
interest rate spread was 1.85% in 2000 compared with 2.07% in 1999, while the
net yield on interest earning assets was 2.79% in 2000 and 2.91% in 1999. The
expansion of the Company's securities servicing, global payment services, and
asset management businesses continued to generate increased levels of
deposits. These additional deposits were invested in high quality liquid
assets which increased net interest income, although lowering the net interest
rate spread and net yield.

     For 1999, net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis amounted to
$1,633 million. Average earning assets were $56.2 billion, up from the prior
year reflecting growth in highly liquid, lower yielding assets generated by
the Company's securities servicing businesses and the acquisition of RBSTB.
Average loans increased to $38.9 billion in 1999. Growth in the loan portfolio
was partially offset by the sale of BNYFC. The net interest rate spread was
2.07% in 1999, while the net yield on interest earning assets was 2.91%. The
increase in net interest income and the decline in the spread and yield from
the prior year was principally caused by growth in highly liquid but lower
yielding assets. The yield was also impacted by the Company's stock buyback
program.

     Interest income would have been increased by $9 million, $9 million, and
$8 million if loans on nonaccrual status at December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999
had been performing for the entire year.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE AND INCOME TAXES

Total noninterest expense was $2,788 million in 2001, $2,510 million in 2000,
and $2,107 million in 1999. Salaries and employee benefits increased 7% to
$1,588 million in 2001. In 2001, net occupancy and furniture and fixture

<PAGE> 8

expenses increased by a combined $118 million to $410 million. This increase
primarily reflects the expenses associated with the WTC disaster including the
repair of damaged facilities, replacement equipment, replacement furniture and
fixtures and the outfitting of new leased space. Other expenses increased by
8% in 2001 to $790 million which reflects higher operating expenses associated
with acquisitions, investments in technology, and volume-related expenses.
Technology spending was $588 million in the year 2001, up 19% from $493
million in 2000 and $400 million in 1999. Technology spending was 21% of total
expenses in 2001 compared with 20% in 2000 and 19% in 1999.

     Total noninterest expense increased 19% in 2000 compared with 1999. The
increase in expenses in 2000 was attributable to acquisitions, technology
investment, and variable costs associated with increased trading volumes.
Salaries and employee benefits increased 19% to $1,488 million in 2000. Net
occupancy and furniture and fixture expenses increased by a combined $31
million to $292 million. Other expenses increased by 23% in 2000 to $730
million.

     The efficiency ratio was 54.8% in 2001 compared with 52.5% in 2000 and
42.8% in 1999. The computation of the efficiency ratio includes the gain on
the sale of BNYFC in 1999. The increase in the efficiency ratio reflects
expenses associated with the WTC disaster.

     The Company's consolidated effective tax rates for 2001, 2000, and 1999
were 34.7%, 36.5%, and 38.7%. The 2001 rate reflects tax benefits associated
with the WTC disaster. The 2000 rate reflects lower state and local taxes
compared to 1999 and higher tax exempt income. The 1999 rate reflects fewer
tax benefits from leasing activities and the impact of the sale of BNYFC.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company's significant accounting policies are described in the "Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements" under "Summary of Significant Accounting
and Reporting Policies". Two of the Company's more critical accounting
policies are those related to the allowance for credit losses and to the
valuation of derivatives and securities where quoted market prices are not
available. In addition to the "Summary of Significant Accounting and Reporting
Policies" footnote, further information on policies related to the allowance
for credit losses can be found under "Asset Quality and Allowance for Credit
Losses" in the Management's Discussion and Analysis of the Company's Financial
Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A). Further information on the
valuation of derivatives and securities where quoted market prices are not
available can be found under "Market Risk Management" and "Trading Activities
and Risk Management" in the MD&A section and in "Fair Value of Financial
Instruments" in the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements".

ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES

The allocated portion of the allowance for credit losses is principally
determined using an expected loss model driven by Probability of Default and
Loss Given Default ratings. Ratings are assigned after analyzing the credit
quality of each Borrower and the collateral/structure of each individual
asset. These ratings are periodically compared to internal company and
external rating agency default and loss databases to ensure consistency. Other
factors used in establishing the allocated portion of the allowance include
forecasts of future cash flows and maturity.

     The Company's unallocated allowance is based on management's judgement.
Factors that influence this judgement include:

   -  Economic conditions, including duration of the current cycle
   -  Past experience, including recent loss experience
   -  Credit quality trends
   -  Collateral values
   -  Volume, composition, and growth of the loan portfolio
   -  Specific credits and industry conditions
   -  Results of bank regulatory and internal credit exams
   -  Actions by the Federal Reserve Board
   -  Delay in receipt of information to evaluate loans or confirm existing
      credit deterioration

<PAGE> 9

     To the extent actual results differ from forecasts or management's
judgment the allowance for credit losses may be greater or less than future
charge-offs.

VALUATION OF DERIVATIVES AND SECURITIES WHERE QUOTED MARKET PRICES ARE NOT
 AVAILABLE

When quoted market prices are not available, derivatives and securities values
are determined based on discounted cash flow analysis, comparison to similar
instruments, and the use of financial models. Discounted cash flow analysis is
dependent upon estimated future cash flows and the level of interest rates.
Model-based pricing uses inputs of observable prices for interest rates,
foreign exchange rates, option volatilities and other factors. Models are
benchmarked and validated by external parties.

     These valuation methods could expose the Company to materially different
results should the models used or underlying assumptions be inaccurate. See
"Use of Estimates" in the footnote "Summary of Significant Accounting and
Reporting Policies".

LIQUIDITY

The Company maintains its liquidity through the management of its assets and
liabilities, utilizing worldwide financial markets. The diversification of
liabilities reflects the Company's efforts to maintain flexibility of funding
sources under changing market conditions. Stable core deposits, including
demand, retail time, and trust deposits from processing businesses, are
generated through the Company's diversified network and managed with the use
of trend studies and deposit pricing. The use of derivative products such as
interest rate swaps and financial futures enhances liquidity by enabling the
Company to issue long-term liabilities with limited exposure to interest rate
risk. Liquidity also results from the maintenance of a portfolio of assets
which can be easily sold and the monitoring of unfunded loan commitments,
thereby reducing unanticipated funding requirements. Liquidity is managed on
both a consolidated basis and also at The Bank of New York Company, Inc.
Parent Company ("Parent").

     On a consolidated basis, non-core sources of funds such as money market
rate accounts, certificates of deposits greater than $100,000, federal funds
purchased and other borrowings were $12.6 billion and $11.0 billion on an
average basis in 2001 and 2000. Stable foreign deposits, primarily from the
Company's European based securities servicing business, increased on average
to $27.9 billion from $27.6 billion in 2000. Savings and other time deposits
were $9.5 billion on an average basis compared to $9.6 billion in 2000. A
significant reduction in the Company's securities businesses would reduce its
access to foreign deposits.

     The Company has entered into three modest securitization transactions.
See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. These transactions have
not had a significant impact on the Company's liquidity or capital.

     The Parent has five major sources of liquidity: dividends from its
subsidiaries, a line of credit with The Bank of New York ("The Bank"), the
commercial paper market, a revolving credit agreement with third party
financial institutions, and access to the capital markets.

     At January 1, 2002, the amount of dividends The Bank could pay to the
Parent and remain in compliance with federal bank regulatory requirements was
$483 million. This dividend capacity would increase in 2002 to the extent of
net income less dividends. Nonbank subsidiaries of the Parent have liquid
assets of approximately $1 billion. These assets could be liquidated and the
proceeds delivered by dividend or loaned to the Parent.

     The Company has a line of credit with The Bank, which is subject to
limits imposed by federal banking law. At December 31, 2001, the Parent could
use the subsidiaries' liquid securities as collateral to allow it to borrow
$533 million rather than liquidate the securities and loan or dividend the

proceeds to the Parent and remain in compliance with federal banking
regulations. Borrowings at December 31, 2001 were $24 million.

     Restrictions on the ability of the Company to obtain funds from its
subsidiaries are discussed in Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements.

     In 2001, the Parent's average commercial paper borrowings were $331
million compared with $218 million in 2000. Commercial paper outstandings were
$333 million and $266 million at December 31, 2001 and 2000.

     The Company has back-up lines of credit of $350 million at financial
institutions. This line of credit matures in 2002. The Parent expects to enter
into a replacement line of credit on or before the maturity.

     The Company also has the ability to access the capital markets. The
Company has a shelf registration statement with a remaining capacity of $765
million of debt, preferred stock, preferred trust securities, or common stock.
Access to the capital markets is partially dependent on the Company's credit
ratings, which as of February 28, 2002 were as follows:

                                                              The Bank of

     The Parent's major uses of funds are payment of principal and interest on
its borrowings, acquisitions, and additional investment in its subsidiaries.

     The Parent has $932 million of long-term debt that becomes due in 2002.
In addition, the Parent has the option to call $410 million of debt in 2002
and will call and refinance if market conditions are favorable. The Parent
expects to refinance any debt it repays by issuing a combination of senior and
subordinated debt.

     The Company has $400 million of trust preferred securities that are
callable in 2002. These securities qualify as Tier 1 Capital. The Company has
not yet decided if it will call these securities. The decision to call will be
based on interest rates and the availability of cash and capital at the call
date. If the Company calls the trust preferred securities, it expects to
replace them with new trust preferred securities or senior or subordinated
debt.

     Double leverage is the ratio of investment in subsidiaries divided by the
Company's consolidated equity plus trust preferred securities. The Company's
double leverage ratio at December 31, 2001 and 2000 was 99.23% and 99.11%. The
Company's target double leverage ratio is a maximum of 120%. The double
leverage ratio is monitored by regulators and rating agencies and is an
important constraint on the Company's ability to invest in its subsidiaries to
expand its businesses.

     The following comments relate to the information disclosed in the
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

     Earnings and other operating activities provided $6.0 billion in 2001,
compared with $2.2 billion used in 2000 and $1.0 billion used in 1999. The
changes in cash flows from operations in 2001, 2000 and 1999 were principally
the result of changes in trading activities.

     In 2001, cash used by investing activities was $6.5 billion as compared
to $1.4 billion provided by investing activities in 2000 and $1.1 billion used
by investing activities in 1999. In 2001, cash was used to increase the
Company's investment securities portfolio, which is part of an ongoing
strategy to shift the Company's asset mix from loans towards highly rated
investment securities and short-term liquid assets. The cash provided in 2000
came from fewer deposits in banks as well as a decline in loans. In 1999,
additions to loans, interest-bearing deposits in banks, and federal funds sold
and securities purchased under resale agreements were partially offset by the
sale of BNYFC.

     Cash provided by financing activities was $0.4 billion, $0.6 billion, and
$1.3 billion in 2001, 2000, and 1999. In 2001, 2000, and 1999, financing
activities included cash to buy back the Company's common shares, and pay
dividends, and provided cash through the issuance of long-term debt. Federal
funds purchased and securities sold under repurchase agreements were a net
source of funds in 2001 and a net use of funds in 2000 and 1999. The Company
used deposits to finance its investing activities in 2000 and 1999.

COMMITMENTS AND OBLIGATIONS

     The Company has contractual obligations to make cash payments as

     In the aftermath of the WTC disaster, the Company leased temporary space
for employees to use until their regular workplaces become available. In
2002, the Company anticipates all its facilities will return to use and
temporary space will be sublet. The Company believes any loss on subleases
will be covered by its insurance.

     The Company expects many of these commitments to expire without the need
to advance any cash. Advances under securities lendings indemnification and
standby bond purchase agreements would be secured by collateral.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

Shareholders' equity was $6,317 million at December 31, 2001, compared with
$6,152 million at December 31, 2000 and $5,143 million at December 31, 1999.
During 2001, the Company retained $817 million of earnings, issued $175
million of medium-term notes qualifying as Tier 2 capital, increasing long-
term debt to $4,976 million from $4,536 million. The increased long-term debt
replaces subordinated debt ceasing to qualify as Tier 2 capital, and issued
$460 million of senior debt. The Company called $240 million of medium-term
notes in 2001. The Company also repurchased 19 million common shares for $854
million. In January 2002, the Company increased its quarterly common stock
dividend to 19 cents per share, up 6% from the beginning of 2001. The Company
has a shelf registration statement with a remaining capacity of $765 million
of debt, preferred stock, preferred trust securities, or common stock.

     Regulators establish certain levels of capital for bank holding companies
and banks, including the Company and the Bank, in accordance with established
quantitative measurements. In order for the Company to maintain its status as
a financial holding company, the Bank must qualify as well capitalized. In
addition, major bank holding companies such as the Company are expected by the
regulators to be well capitalized.  As of December 31, 2001 and 2000, the
Company and the Bank were considered well capitalized on the basis of the
ratios (defined by regulation) of Total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted
assets and leverage (Tier 1 capital to average assets), which are shown as
follows:

     If a bank holding company or bank fails to qualify as "adequately
capitalized", regulatory sanctions and limitations are imposed.

     In 2000, the Company retained $946 million of earnings and issued $265
million of medium-term notes, increasing long-term debt to $4,536 million from
$4,311 million. The increased long-term debt replaces subordinated debt
ceasing to qualify as Tier 2 capital. The Company also repurchased 10 million
common shares for $454 million. In October 2000, the Company increased its
quarterly common stock dividend to 18 cents per share, up 13% from the
beginning of 2000.

     In 1999, the Company retained $1,302 million of earnings and issued $200
million of preferred trust securities. The Company also issued $300 million of
subordinated notes and $631 million of medium-term notes, increasing long-term
debt to $4,311 million from $3,386 million. The increased long-term debt
supports assets acquired in the RBSTB acquisition and replaces subordinated
debt ceasing to qualify as Tier 2 capital. The Company also repurchased 44
million common shares for $1.6 billion. In October 1999, the Company increased
its quarterly common stock dividend to 16 cents per share, up 14% from the
beginning of 1999.

ASSET QUALITY AND ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES

The Company has proactively managed asset quality. Over the past five years,
the Company has attempted to improve its risk profile through sharper
strategic focus on non-lending activities, with a de-emphasis on broad-based
loan growth. The Company regularly culls its loan portfolio of credit
exposures that no longer meet risk/return criteria, including an assessment of
overall relationship profitability.

- -    In 1999, the Company exited $4 billion in asset based lending exposures
     and $1 billion of non-strategic credit exposures.

- -    In the last two years, credit commitments and loans outstandings to non-
     financial companies have been reduced by $8.2 billion and $3.5 billion,
     respectively.

- -    In 2001, the Company created an accelerated loan disposition program for
     24 emerging telecommunications companies exposures and one energy trading
     company credit totaling $758 million with related outstandings of $488
     million.

- -    As part of the Company's consistent, long-term strategy to emphasize
     fiduciary securities servicing and cash processing services, the
     Company's credit exposure to the financial services sector, a big user
     of these services, has increased. Financial services companies
     outstandings now represent 27% of the total portfolio. These exposures
     tend to be lower-risk secured liquidity facilities to investment grade
     companies.  This shift has helped increase the percentage of credits with
     an investment grade-equivalent rating from 52% of the total in 1997 to
     72% at December 31, 2001.

- -    Of the credits with a rating equivalent to non-investment grade, 44% of
     these credits mature in less than one year.

     Loan commitments were $45.8 billion at December 31, 2001 down from $47.7
billion at December 31, 2000. These unused commitments are primarily to high
quality borrowers in the special industries, financial services companies, and
U.S. geographic divisions.

     Total loans at year end 2001 were $35.7 billion down from $37.5 billion
two years ago. The components of the loan portfolio are detailed below:

     The Company's most significant concentrations of credit risk are to the
financial services sector and the media and telecommunications sector. Within
the Company's specialized group that focuses on the financial services sector,
the primary exposures are to the securities firms, investment companies, the
insurance industry, fund managers, mutual funds, banks, and others. Loans
outstanding to financial service companies were $9.6 billion at December 31,
2001 compared with $7.8 billion in 2000.

     The media and telecommunications sector is the second largest specialized
group in terms of outstandings. Excluding loans available for sale, the
portfolio is composed as follows:

                                   ======  ====        ===

     Almost 80% of the Company's portfolio is in traditional media segments of
broadcasting, publishing, programming, and cable TV. The balance is to
established telecommunications companies. The portfolio is well diversified
with a high degree of granularity across 171 borrowers.

     The Company's outstandings to retail and private banking customers,
including residential real estate loans, its leasing assets, and its
commercial real estate lending each exceed 5% of the loan portfolio.

     The Company's retail and private banking loans consist of $3.4 billion of
secured loans backed by real estate, and $1.9 billion of unsecured credit
lines to high quality borrowers. The Company has had limited loss experience
and good returns in this area.

     The leasing portfolio consists of $5 billion of exposures backed by well-
diversified assets, primarily large-ticket transportation equipment. The
largest component is rail, consisting of both passenger and freight trains.
Assets are both domestic and foreign-based, with primary concentrations in the
United States and European countries. The Company utilizes this portfolio as
part of its tax cash flow management and has generated attractive risk-
adjusted after-tax returns. The Company engaged in certain types of structured
leasing transactions prior to mid-1999 that the IRS has indicated it intends
to challenge. The Company believes that it will prevail in any challenge to
these transactions, based upon the statutes, regulations and case law in place
at the time.

    The Company's commercial real estate lending includes $0.9 billion of
office buildings, $0.8 billion of residential and $0.7 billion of retail and
other. This portfolio is largely focused on the metropolitan New York area.

     The Company is active in the international markets, particularly in areas
associated with securities servicing and trade finance. These activities
result in outstandings to foreign institutions of $3.3 billion and $3.2
billion at December 31, 2001 and 2000. The Company's modest cross-border

<PAGE> 16

exposure to emerging markets is detailed in its Form 10-K. No significant
changes in trends occurred in the foreign portfolio in 2001.

     Further details of the Company's outstandings are detailed later under
"Loans". In addition, the Company's retail, community, and regional commercial
banking operations in the New York metropolitan area create a significant
geographic concentration.

     In 2001, the Company created an accelerated loan disposition program for
24 emerging market telecommunications companies exposures and one energy
trading credit totaling $758 million with related outstandings of $488
million. At December 31, 2001, loans available for sale had exposures of $445
million and outstandings of $197 million. The Company plans to substantially
dispose of these assets in 2002. These assets are marked to the lower of cost
or market with gains or losses reported in other income.

     Nonperforming assets increased by $29 million or 15% to $222 million at
December 31, 2001. The increase in nonperforming assets during 2001 is
attributable to deterioration in credit quality, particularly in emerging
telecommunications companies credits, which resulted in moving $595 million of
loans to nonperforming status. The increase was largely offset by charge-offs
and writedowns of $327 million and paydowns, sales, and returns to accrual
status of $240 million.

     The following table shows the distribution of nonperforming assets at

     Nonperforming loans are expected to rise given likely economic softness
in 2002. As a result, the Company anticipates that the allowance will not
decline in 2002.

     Net charge-offs were $375 million in 2001, $84 million in 2000, and $137
million in 1999. Net charge-offs increased in 2001 primarily due to emerging
telecommunications companies loans and an energy trading company loan. In
2000, net charge-offs were primarily related to commercial loans. Net charge-
offs in 1999 were primarily related to the decision to accelerate the
disposition of certain loans, as well as higher charge-offs in the Company's
asset based lending businesses.

     The provision for credit losses was $375 million in 2001, compared with
$105 million in 2000 and $135 million in 1999. The increase in the provision
in 2001 primarily reflects the accelerated disposition program related to
emerging telecommunications companies credits, the loss on the energy trading
credit, and the general deterioration in credit quality in 2001. The decrease
in the provision in 2000 compared with 1999 reflects the 1999 decision to
accelerate the disposition of $1 billion of credit exposures as well as the
sale of BNYFC, which had almost $4 billion of credit exposure, helped reduce
the Company's exposure to deteriorating credits in 2000. Second, the 1999
provision reflects higher charge-offs in the Company's asset based lending
businesses. And lastly, 2000 reflects a decrease in total loans.

<PAGE> 17

     The total allowance for credit losses was $616 million at year-end 2001
and 2000. The ratio of the total allowance for credit losses to year-end loans
was 1.72% and 1.70% at December 31, 2001 and 2000. Loans at December 31, 2001
were $35.7 billion compared with $36.3 billion at the prior year-end. Average
loans decreased to $38.8 billion in 2001 from $39.3 billion in 2000. The
allowance remained flat in 2001 compared with 2000 reflecting deteriorating
asset quality, as evidenced by increasing nonperforming assets offset by the
decline in loans and the shift in the composition of credit exposure towards
the financial services sector and away from higher risk general corporate
lending.

     The Company's allowance at year-end equated to approximately 2.9 times
the average charge-offs for the last three years and 3.1 times the average net
charge-offs for the same three-year period. Because historical charge-offs are
not necessarily indicative of future charge-off levels, the Company also gives
consideration to other risk indicators when determining the appropriate
allowance level.

     The allowance for credit losses consists of four elements: (1) an
allowance for impaired credits (nonaccrual commercial credits over $1
million), (2) an allowance for higher risk rated credits, (3) an allowance for
pass rated credits, and (4) an unallocated allowance based on general economic
conditions and risk factors in the Company's individual markets.

     The first element - impaired credits - is based on individual analysis of
all nonperforming commercial credits over $1 million. The allowance is
measured by the difference between the recorded value of impaired loans and
their fair value. Fair value is either the present value of the expected
future cash flows from borrowers, the market value of the loan, or the fair
value of the collateral.

     The second element - higher risk rated credits - is based on the
assignment of loss factors for each specific risk category of higher risk
credits. The Company rates each credit in its portfolio that exceeds $1
million and assigns the credits to specific risk pools. A potential loss
factor is assigned to each pool and an amount is included in the allowance
equal to the product of the amount of the loan in the pool and the risk
factor. Reviews of higher risk rated loans are conducted quarterly and the
loan's rating is updated as necessary. The Company prepares a loss migration
analysis and compares its actual loss experience to the loss factors on an
annual basis to attempt to ensure the accuracy of the loss factors assigned to
each pool. Pools of past due consumer loans are included in specific risk
categories based on their length of time past due.

     The third element - pass rated credits - is based on the Company's
expected loss model. Borrowers are assigned to pools based on their credit
ratings. The expected loss for each loan in a pool incorporates the borrower's
credit rating, loss given default rating and maturity. The credit rating is
dependent upon the borrower's probability of default. The loss given default
incorporates a recovery expectation. Borrower and loss given default ratings
are reviewed semi-annually at minimum and are periodically mapped to third
party, including rating agency, default and recovery data bases to ensure
ongoing consistency and validity. Commercial loans over $1 million are
individually analyzed before being assigned a credit rating. All current
consumer loans are included in the pass rated consumer pools.

<PAGE> 18

     The fourth element - the unallocated allowance - is based on management's
judgment regarding the following factors:

   -  Economic conditions including duration of the current cycle
   -  Past experience including recent loss experience
   -  Credit quality trends
   -  Collateral values
   -  Volume, composition, and growth of the loan portfolio
   -  Specific credits and industry conditions
   -  Results of bank regulatory and internal credit exams
   -  Actions by the Federal Reserve Board
   -  Delay in receipt of information to evaluate loans or confirm existing
      credit deterioration

     During 2001, the Company significantly revised both its credit rating
system and the loss factors assigned to specific risk pools. The prior credit
rating system had 10 grades while the new system has 18 grades more closely
aligning it with the rating systems used by the credit rating agencies. The
new loss factors are based on publicly available data adjusted for
management's judgment. The impact of the new loss factor was to increase the
allowance associated with lower rated pass credits while decreasing the
allowance associated with higher rated pass credits and commitments.

     Based on an evaluation of these four elements, including individual
credits, historical credit losses, and global economic factors, the Company
has allocated its allowance for credit losses as follows:

                          2001     2000     1999     1998     1997

Unallocated                 11        9        6       11       24
                          ----     ----     ----     ----     ----
                           100%     100%     100%     100%     100%
                          ====     ====     ====     ====     ====

     In 2001, the allowance for impaired credits, the allowance for higher
risk credits, and the unallocated allowance increased. This was offset by a
decline in the allowance for pass rated credits. The increase in the allowance
for impaired and higher risk credits reflects the increase in the amount of
loans in these categories. The increase in the unallocated allowance is
attributable to the deterioration in the economy and negative credit quality
trends. The decrease in the allowance for pass rated credits reflects the
decline in the loan portfolio as well as a shift in the loan portfolio towards
the financial sector and away from higher risk general corporate lending.

     Such an allocation is inherently judgmental, and the entire allowance for
credit losses is available to absorb credit losses regardless of the nature of
the loss.

MARKET RISK MANAGEMENT

Market risk is the risk of loss due to adverse changes in the financial
markets. Market risk arises from derivative financial instruments, such as
futures, forwards, swaps and options, and other financial instruments, such as
loans, securities, deposits, and other borrowings. The Company's market risks
are primarily interest rate and foreign exchange risk, as well as credit risk.
The Company does not trade in non-exchange traded commodity contracts.

     The Company's risk management process begins with oversight by the Board
of Directors, who periodically review risk management policies and controls
and approve aggregate levels of risk. The Company's market risk governance
structure includes two committees comprised of senior executives who review
market risk activities, risk measurement methodologies and risk limits,
approve new products, and provide direction for the Company's market risk
profile. The Asset/Liability Management Committee oversees the market risk
management process for interest rate risk related to asset/liability
management activities. The Market Risk Management Committee oversees the
market risk management process for trading activities including foreign
exchange risk. Both committees are supported by a comprehensive risk
management process that is designed to identify, measure, and manage market
risk, as discussed under "Trading Activities and Risk Management" and
"Asset/Liability Management" below and in footnote 12 to the Company's
Consolidated Financial Statements.

TRADING ACTIVITIES AND RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company's trading activities are oriented primarily towards acting as a
market maker for the Company's customers. The risk from these market making
activities and from the Company's own positions is managed by the Company's
traders and limited in total exposure as described below.

     The Company manages trading risk through a system of position limits, a
value at risk (VAR) methodology, based on a Monte Carlo simulation, stop loss
advisory triggers, and other market sensitivity measures. Risk is monitored
and reported to senior management by an independent unit on a daily basis. The
VAR methodology captures, based on certain assumptions, the potential
overnight pre-tax dollar loss from adverse changes in fair values of all
trading positions. The calculation assumes a one day holding period for most
instruments, utilizes a 99% confidence level, and incorporates the non-linear
characteristics of options. As the VAR methodology does not evaluate risk
attributable to extraordinary financial, economic or other occurrences, the
risk assessment process includes a number of stress scenarios based upon the
risk factors in the portfolio and management's assessment of market
conditions. Additional stress scenarios based upon historic market events are
also tested.

     The following table indicates the calculated VAR amounts for the trading
portfolio for the years ending December 31, 2001 and 2000. During 2001, the
daily trading loss exceeded the calculated VAR amounts on 2 days.

ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT

The Company's asset/liability management activities include lending, investing
in securities, accepting deposits, raising money as needed to fund assets, and
processing securities and other transactions. The market risks that arise from
these activities are interest rate risk, and to a lesser degree, foreign
exchange risk. The Company's primary market risk is exposure to movements in
US dollar interest rates. Exposure to movements in foreign currency interest
rates also exists, but to a significantly lower degree. The Company actively
manages interest rate sensitivity (the exposure of net interest income to
interest rate movements). In addition to gap analysis, the Company uses
earnings simulation and discounted cash flow models to identify interest rate
exposures.

     An earnings simulation model is the primary tool used to assess changes
in pre-tax net interest income. The model incorporates management's
assumptions regarding interest rates, balance changes on core deposits, and
changes in the prepayment behavior of loans. These assumptions have been
developed through a combination of historical analysis and future expected
pricing behavior. Derivative financial instruments used for interest rate risk
management purposes are also included in this model.

     The Company evaluates the effect on earnings by running various interest
rate shock scenarios up and down from a baseline scenario which assumes no
changes in interest rates. These scenarios are reviewed to examine the impact
of large interest rate movements. Interest rate sensitivity is quantified by
calculating the change in pre-tax net interest income between the scenarios
over a 12 month measurement period. The measurement of interest rate
sensitivity is the percentage change in net interest income calculated by the
model under the shock up 100 basis points in short-term rates and up 50 basis
points in long-term rates versus the baseline scenario and under the shock
down 100 basis points in both short and long-term rates versus the baseline
scenario. Under these shock scenarios, pre-tax net interest income would be
positively affected by 1.2% from the baseline scenario for an increase in
rates and negatively affected by 5.3% for a decline. These scenarios do not
include the strategies that management could employ to limit the impact as
interest rate expectations change.

     To manage foreign exchange risk, the Company funds foreign currency-
denominated assets with liability instruments denominated in the same
currency. The Company utilizes various foreign exchange contracts if a
liability denominated in the same currency is not available or desired, and to
minimize the earnings impact of translation gains or losses created by
investments in overseas markets. The foreign exchange risk related to the
interest rate spread on foreign currency-denominated asset/liability positions
is managed as part of the Company's trading activities. The Company uses
forward foreign exchange contracts to protect the value of its net investment
in foreign operations. At December 31, 2001, net investments in foreign
operations approximated $931 million and were spread across 13 foreign
currencies.

<PAGE> 22

     The Company's equity investments of $1.7 billion at December 31, 2001
primarily consisted of equity positions in other financial institutions,
venture capital investments, minority interests in various subsidiaries, and
equity positions from debts previously contracted. Venture capital activities
consist of investments in private equity funds, mezzanine financings, and
direct equity investments. The carrying and fair values of the Company's
venture capital investments were $462 million at December 31, 2001, consisting
of private equity funds of $362 million and mezzanine financings and direct
equity investments of $100 million. Fair values for private equity funds are
generally based upon values provided by fund sponsors while mezzanine
financing and direct equity investments are based upon Company models. The
majority of the Company's equity investments are of a long-term nature and
accordingly, the Company does not view fluctuations in the market prices of
these securities as having a material impact on the Company's operations.
Changes in prices for marketable equity securities are reflected in the
Statements of Changes in Shareholders' Equity. All equity investments are
evaluated on a regular basis for other than temporary impairment.

SUMMARY OF NORMALIZED RESULTS

The following discussion of income statement trends and comparisons through
the segment profitability section relates to 2001 and 1999 normalized results.

     For the year 2001, the Company earned $1,492 million or $2.01 per diluted
share, compared with $1,429 million or $1.92 per diluted share in 2000 and
$1,243 million or $1.66 per diluted share in 1999. Securities servicing fees
were $1,764 million, a 7% increase, compared with $1,650 million in 2000.
Areas leading the increase for the year included: execution services,
corporate trust, broker-dealer services, and global liquidity services. The
Company continues to be the world's leading custodian with year-end assets
under custody of $6.9 trillion, including $1.9 trillion of cross-border
custody assets. New business growth in cash management drove global payment
services fees to $290 million, up 11%, reflecting continued success of CA$H-
Register Plus(registered trademark), the Company's internet-based electronic
banking service. Foreign exchange and other trading revenues were $343 million,
up 31% from 2000, reflecting a strong demand for interest rate risk management
products driven by declining interest rates and higher volatility in 2001.
Private client services and asset management fees were $309 million, up 4%
compared with $296 million in 2000. The Company's continued focus on fee-based
businesses resulted in noninterest income growing to 66% of total revenue, up
from 64% last year.

     Normalized return measures have been computed using both normalized net
income and balance sheets. In 2001, return on average common equity was 23.84%
compared with 26.08% in 2000 and 25.50% in 1999, while return on average
assets was 1.92% in 2001 compared with 1.85% in 2000 and 1.92% in 1999.

     Normalized tangible diluted earnings per share (earnings before the
amortization of goodwill and intangibles) were $2.11 per share in 2001
compared with $2.03 per share in 2000 and $1.75 per share in 1999. Tangible
return on average assets was 2.07% in 2001 compared with 2.00% in 2000 and
2.08% in 1999. Tangible return on average common equity was 36.63% in 2001
compared with 40.00% in 2000 and 36.76% in 1999.

     In 2000, securities servicing fee revenues were up 33% to $1,650 million
reflecting particular strength in global custody, depositary receipts ("DRs"),
unit investment trust ("UIT"), and mutual funds as well as global execution
and clearing services. Fee revenue also benefited from the acquisition of the
Royal Bank of Scotland Trust Bank ("RBSTB") on October 31, 1999. Private
client services and asset management fees were up 21% to $296 million, led by
strong business flows in the BNY Hamilton Funds, as well as by the
acquisitions of Ivy Asset Management Corp. and Estabrook Capital Management,
Inc. Increased cross-selling within the securities servicing client franchise
and rapid growth in the Company's foreign exchange e-commerce initiative drove
foreign exchange and other trading revenues up 38% to $261 million in 2000
compared with $189 million in 1999. Net interest income on a taxable
equivalent basis was $1,811 million in 2000 compared with $1,578 million in
1999, benefiting from the acquisition of RBSTB, which brought approximately
$10 billion in highly liquid, short-term assets and liabilities. The provision
for credit losses increased to $105 million from $60 million on a normalized
basis in 1999.

     In 1999, securities servicing revenues were up 24% reaching $1,245
million, reflecting particular strength in global custody, mutual funds,
securities lending, DRs, and execution services. Private client services and
asset management fees were up 17% to $244 million in 1999, led by strong
results from personal trust, personal asset management, and retail investment
products. Higher transaction flows in the Company's European securities
servicing business drove foreign exchange and other trading revenues up 12% to
$189 million in 1999. In 1999, net interest income on a taxable equivalent
basis was $1,578 million and the provision for credit losses increased to $60
million on a normalized basis from the prior year.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income is provided by a wide range of securities servicing, global
payment services, private client services and asset management, trading
activities and other fee-based services. Revenues from these activities were
$3,394 million in 2001, compared with $3,109 million in 2000 and $2,532
million in 1999.

     Securities servicing fees were $1,764 million, $1,650 million, and $1,245
million in 2001, 2000, and 1999. The 7% increase in securities servicing fees
from 2000 reflects growth in execution services, corporate trust, broker-
dealer services, and global liquidity services. Global payment services fees,
principally funds transfer, cash management, and trade finance, were $290
million in 2001, $261 million in 2000, and $274 million in 1999. The increase
in global payment services fees from 2000 reflects continued success of CA$H-
Register Plus(registered trademark), the Company's internet-based electronic
banking service, as well as customers electing to pay for services in fees
rather than maintaining higher compensating balances in a declining interest
rate environment.

     Private client services and asset management fees were $309 million in
2001, $296 million in 2000, and $244 million in 1999. The 4% increase from
2000 reflects strength in alternative investment and short-term money market
product lines.

     Service charges and fees were $362 million in 2001, compared with $364
million in 2000 and $292 million in 1999. For further discussion of fee
revenue, see Segment Profitability.

     Foreign exchange and other trading revenues were $343 million in 2001,
$261 million in 2000, and $189 million in 1999.  The 31% increase from the
prior year reflects continued strong demand for interest rate risk management
products driven by declining interest rates and higher volatility during 2001.
Strong foreign exchange transaction flows continued from the Company's
securities servicing clients also contributed to the increase.

     Securities gains totaled $154 million, $150 million, and $199 million in
2001, 2000, and 1999.

     Other noninterest income was $172 million in 2001, $127 million in 2000,
and $89 million in 1999. In 2001, other income includes a $43 million gain on
the sale of the Company's interest in NYCE.  In 2000, other income includes a
$26 million payment associated with the termination of a securities clearing
contract.

NET INTEREST INCOME

(Dollars in millions on a

- ----------------------                      ----          ----         ----
Net Interest Income                       $1,786        $1,811       $1,578
Net Interest Rate Spread                    2.00%         1.85%        2.01%
Net Yield on Interest Earning Assets        2.74          2.79         2.88

For 2001, net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis amounted to $1,786
million compared with $1,811 million in 2000. The effect of the lower interest
rate environment in 2001 was partially offset by increases in the Company's
investment securities portfolio which is part of the ongoing strategy to shift
the Company's asset mix from loans towards highly rated investment securities
and short-term liquid assets. Average earning assets were $65.2 billion up
from $64.9 billion in 2000. Average loans were $37.3 billion in 2001 compared
with $39.3 billion in 2000. The net interest rate spread was 2.00% in 2001
compared with 1.85% in 2000, while the net yield on interest earning assets
was 2.74% in 2001 and 2.79% in 2000.

     For 2000, net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis amounted to
$1,811 million compared with $1,578 million in 1999. Average earning assets
were $64.9 billion up from $54.8 billion in 1999. The increase in average
assets is primarily attributable to the acquisition of RBSTB. Average loans

<PAGE> 28

were $39.3 billion in 2000 compared with $37 billion in 1999. The net interest
rate spread was 1.85% in 2000 compared with 2.01% in 1999, while the net yield
on interest earning assets was 2.79% in 2000 and 2.88% in 1999. The expansion
of the Company's securities servicing, global payment services, and asset
management businesses continued to generate increased levels of deposits.
These additional deposits were invested in high quality liquid assets which
increased net interest income, although lowering the net interest rate spread
and net yield.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE AND INCOME TAXES

Total noninterest expense was $2,620 million in 2001, $2,510 million in 2000,
and $2,055 million in 1999. Salaries and employee benefits increased 4% to
$1,554 million in 2001. In 2001, net occupancy and furniture and fixture
expenses increased by a combined $25 million to $317 million. Other expenses
increased by 3% in 2001 to $749 million which reflects higher operating
expenses associated with acquisitions, investments in technology and volume-
related expenses. Technology spending was $588 million in the year 2001, up
19% from $493 million in 2000 and $400 million in 1999. Technology spending
was 22% of total expenses in 2001 compared with 20% in 2000 and 19% in 1999.

     Total noninterest expense increased 22% in 2000 compared with 1999. The
increase in expenses in 2000 was attributable to acquisitions, technology
investment, and variable costs associated with increased trading volumes.
Salaries and employee benefits increased 22% to $1,488 million in 2000. Net
occupancy and furniture and fixture expenses increased by a combined $37
million to $292 million. Other expenses increased by 27% in 2000 to $730
million.

     The efficiency ratio was 52.5% in 2001, 2000 and 1999. The Company's
consolidated effective tax rates for 2001, 2000, and 1999 were 35.6%, 36.5%,
and 36.3%. The decline in the effective tax rate in 2001 reflects tax benefits
associated with tax exempt income and earnings from foreign operations.

Segment Highlights

Servicing and Fiduciary Businesses
- ----------------------------------

In the Servicing and Fiduciary businesses segment, net interest income was
$580 million in 2001 compared with $672 million in 2000 and $474 million in
1999. The decrease in net interest income in 2001 is primarily attributable to
the decline in interest rates. Noninterest income was $2,621 million in 2001
compared with $2,443 million in 2000 and $1,910 million in 1999. Securities
servicing fees increased to $1,764 million in 2001 as compared with $1,650
million in 2000 and $1,245 million in 1999. Areas leading the increase for the
year included: execution services, corporate trust, broker-dealer services,
and global liquidity services. In 2001, market share gains from new business
wins were partially offset by weak markets resulted in assets under custody
declining slightly to $6.9 trillion in 2001, from $7.0 trillion in 2000 but
still up from $6.3 trillion in 1999.


<PAGE> 31

     Fees from global payment services in 2001 were $290 million compared with
$261 million in 2000 and $274 million in 1999. Fees increased primarily as a
result of customers electing to pay for services in fees rather than
maintaining higher compensating balances in a declining interest rate
environment, as well as new business growth in cash management, reflecting the
continued success of Cash-Register Plus(registered trademark), the Company's
internet-based electronic banking service.

     Fees from private client services and asset management grew to $309
million in 2001, as compared with $296 million in 2000 and $244 million in
1999. In 2001, strength in alternative investment and short-term money market
product lines offset lower asset price levels. Assets under management were
$66.7 billion, $66.2 billion and $60.4 billion in 2001, 2000, and 1999. Assets
under administration were $33.3 billion, compared with $36.4 billion in 2000
and $30.2 billion in 1999.

     Net charge-offs in the Servicing and Fiduciary businesses segment were
zero in 2001, 2000, and 1999. Noninterest expense was $1,735 million compared
with $1,629 million in 2000 and $1,233 million in 1999. The rise in
noninterest expense is attributable to acquisitions, as well as the Company's
continued investment in technology.

Corporate Banking
- -----------------

The Corporate Banking segment's net interest income was $491 million in 2001
compared with $543 million in 2000 and $600 million in 1999. The decrease in
2001 reflects a decline in assets particularly from non-financial companies,
as well as a decline in both the volume and value of low cost short-term
deposits. The provision for credit losses was $128 million in 2001 compared
with $127 million and $110 million in 2000 and 1999. The increase in 2001
principally reflects deterioration in the economy and an increase in
nonperforming loans. Net charge-offs in the Corporate Banking segment were
$356 million, $78 million, and $135 million in 2001, 2000, and 1999. The
increase in noninterest income to $299 million in the current year was due to
increased capital markets fees. In 2001, the Company was the co-manager on 132
underwritings, up from 60 in 2000. The increase in noninterest expense
reflects higher compensation related to increased capital markets activity.

Retail Banking
- --------------

Net interest income in the Retail Banking sector was $493 million in 2001
compared with $510 million in 2000 and $468 million in 1999. Net interest
income in the branch banking network in 2001 was adversely impacted by the
decrease in the value of noninterest-bearing sources of funds in a lower
interest rate environment. Noninterest income was $115 million in 2001
compared with $99 million in 2000 and $92 million in 1999. The increase in
2001 reflects better penetration of the customer base and improved pricing.
Operating expenses were $312 million in 2001 compared with $305 million in
2000 and $306 million in 1999. Net charge-offs were $15 million, $7 million
and $4 million in 2001, 2000, and 1999.

Financial Markets
- -----------------

In the Financial Markets segment, net interest income was $240 million in 2001
compared with $122 million in 2000 and $121 million in 1999. The increase in
2001 reflects lower funding costs and an increase in assets, primarily U.S.
Government Agency Obligations and highly-rated asset-backed securities.
Noninterest income was $297 million in 2001 compared with $249 million in 2000
and $216 million in 1999. The increase in noninterest income in 2001 reflects
strong trading performance, particularly in interest rate derivatives and
gains from the Company's equity arbitrage business. Net charge-offs were $4
million in 2001 and a recovery of $1 million and $2 million in 2000 and 1999.
The increase in noninterest expenses in 2001 reflects higher compensation
related to the 2001 increased revenues.

Segment Accounting Principles
- -----------------------------

The Company's segment data has been determined on an internal management basis
of accounting, rather than the generally accepted accounting principles used
for consolidated financial reporting. These measurement principles are
designed so that reported results of the segments will track their economic
performance. Segment results are subject to restatement whenever improvements
are made in the measurement principles or organizational changes are made.

     The measure of revenues and profit or loss by operating segment has been
adjusted to present segment data on a taxable equivalent basis. The provision
for credit losses allocated to each reportable segment is based on
management's judgment as to average credit losses that will be incurred in the
operations of the segment over a credit cycle of a period of years.
Management's judgment includes the following factors among others: historical
charge-off experience and the volume, composition and growth of the loan
portfolio. This method is different from that required under generally
accepted accounting principles as it anticipates future losses which are not
yet probable and therefore not recognizable under generally accepted
accounting principles. Assets and liabilities are match funded. Support and
other indirect expenses are allocated to segments based on general internal
guidelines.

Reconciling Items
- -----------------

Reconciling items for net interest income primarily relate to the recording of
interest income on a taxable equivalent basis, reallocation of capital and the
funding of goodwill. The impact of the WTC disaster is a reconciling item for
net interest income, noninterest income and noninterest expense in 2001.
Reconciling items for noninterest income also relate to, among other things,
the sale of NYCE in 2001, the payment associated with the termination of a
securities clearing contract in 2000, the liquidity charge on the sale of
loans in 1999, and the gains on the sale of BNYFC in 1999, and the sale of
certain securities. Reconciling items for noninterest expense include $112
million, $115 million and $102 million of amortization of intangibles in 2001,
2000, and 1999, Year 2000 expenses, and corporate overhead. The adjustment to
the provision for credit losses reflects the difference between the aggregate
of the credit provision over a credit cycle for the reportable segments and
the Company's recorded provision. The reconciling items for average assets
consist of goodwill, other intangible assets and the impact of the WTC
disaster.

Foreign Operations

On a reported basis, the Company's foreign activities consist of banking,
trust, and securities and global payment services provided to customers
domiciled outside of the United States, principally in Europe and Asia. The
October 31, 1999 acquisition of RBSTB, which was renamed The Bank of New York
(Europe) ("BNYE"), significantly expanded the Company's presence in Europe. In
addition to BNYE, which is based in London, the Company operates through 28
branches and representative offices in 25 countries. There were no major
customers from whom revenues were individually material to the Company's
performance.

Long-Term Financial Goals and Factors That May Affect Them

The Company has several stated long-term financial goals by which it manages
its business and measures its performance. These goals, which are reviewed and
renewed annually, are currently as follows: 1) achieve a return on equity
(ROE) of 25%+; 2) generate a return on assets (ROA) of 2%; 3) maintain an
efficiency ratio of 49%; and 4) achieve earnings per share growth of 12-14%.

     The Company's ability to achieve these goals will be affected by the
factors discussed under "Forward Looking Statements" in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K as well as the factors discussed below.

Global and regional economic conditions -  The Company's business mix is well-
diversified among clients, products, markets and geographies. However,
economic conditions in the United States and other regions of the world will
impact the level of business activity which, in turn, affects the Company's
financial results. Moreover, the economic environment directly impacts the
creditworthiness of companies and consumers, affecting the Company's lending
activities. Stresses on credit quality can lead to increased credit costs and
a higher amount of nonperforming assets and related charge-offs and
provisioning.

Global capital markets activity -  The Company's businesses generally benefit
from increases in the volume of financial market transactions worldwide.
Corporate actions, cross-border investing, global mergers and acquisitions
activity, new debt and equity issuances, secondary trading volumes all
contribute to revenues through the Company's business mix. Asset price levels
are also important, in particular to the Company's asset management and global
custody businesses.

Continuation of favorable global trends -  The Company's businesses benefit
from certain global trends, such as the growth of financial assets, creation
of new securities, financial services industry consolidation, rapid
technological change, globalization of investment activities, structural
changes to financial markets, shortened settlement cycles, straight-through
processing requirements and increased demand for outsourcing. These long-term
trends all increase the demand for the Company's products and services around
the world.

Pricing/competition -  Future prices that the Company is able to obtain for
its products may increase or decrease from current levels depending upon
demand for its products, its competitors' activities and the introduction of
new products into the marketplace.

Interest rates -  The levels of market interest rates, the shape of the yield
curve and the direction of interest rate changes all affect net interest
income that the Company earns in many different businesses. In general, the
Company benefits short-term in a rising interest rate environment because its
interest earning assets re-price sooner than interest-bearing liabilities,
which include a significant amount of low-interest and interest-free deposits.
The Company may take measures to moderate this impact, including investments
in fixed income securities and various hedging strategies.

Volatility of currency markets -  The degree of volatility in foreign exchange
rates can affect the amount of foreign exchange trading revenue. While most of
the Company's foreign exchange revenue is derived from its securities
servicing client base, activity levels are higher when there is more
volatility. Therefore, the Company benefits from currency volatility.

Acquisitions/joint ventures -  An integral part of the Company's overall
growth strategy is to make focused acquisitions. Since 1994, the Company has
completed over 70 acquisitions, particularly in its securities servicing
businesses and asset management. In addition, the Company enters into
strategic joint ventures around the globe. While the level of transactions has
been fairly consistent, acquisition activity by its very nature is not
predictable.

<PAGE> 34

Technology -  Many of the Company's products and services depend on processing
large volumes of information. The Company's technology platforms provide
global capabilities and scale, which are significant competitive advantages
and barriers to entry for competitors. However, the Company must continue to
execute its technology strategy and deliver on its commitments to its clients.
The Company has invested over $2 billion over the past five years in
technology to establish and maintain a leadership position. Rapid
technological change, lower-cost alternatives or competitive pressures, as
well as the ongoing significant investments and technical expertise required
all pose risks to the Company's future revenues from products and services
that rely upon technology.

Regulation -  The Company is subject to regulation from many different
government bodies, including the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System, the New York State Banking Department and the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation. Regulations are imposed that involve quantitative
measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items, subject
to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings and
other factors. Failure to meet certain regulations could have a material
effect on the Company's financial condition; failure to maintain the status of
"well-capitalized" under the regulatory requirements would affect the
Company's status as a financial holding company and eligibility for
streamlined review process for acquisition proposals. In addition, failure to
maintain the status of "well-capitalized" could affect the confidence of the
Company's clients and would adversely affect its business.

Liquidity -  If the Company should experience limited access to the funds
markets, arising from a loss of confidence of debt purchasers or
counterparties in the funds markets in general or the Company in particular,
this would adversely affect the Company.

Operational risk and business continuity -  The Company continually assesses
and monitors operational risk in its businesses. Operational risk is mitigated
by formal risk management oversight within the Company as well as by
automation, standardized operating procedures, segregation of duties and
controls, timely confirmation and reconciliation procedures and insurance. In
addition, the Company provides for disaster and business recovery planning for
events that could damage the Company's physical facilities, cause delay or
disruptions to operational functions, including telecommunications networks,
or impair the Company's clients, vendors and counterparties. Events beyond

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.  Summary of Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies

The Bank of New York Company, Inc. (the "Company") provides a complete range
of banking and other financial services to corporations and individuals
worldwide through its business segments: Servicing and Fiduciary Businesses;
Corporate Banking; Retail Banking; and Financial Markets. Segment Data and
Foreign Operations are incorporated from the Segment Profitability section of
Management's Discussion and Analysis of the Company's Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial
statements. Amounts subject to significant estimates and assumptions are items
such as the allowance for credit losses, pension and postretirement
obligations, and the fair value of financial instruments. Actual results could
differ from these estimates.

Securities - Debt and equity securities classified as available-for-sale are
carried at fair value, except for those equity securities whose fair value
cannot be readily determined. These securities are carried at cost. Equity
investments of less than a majority but at least 20% ownership are accounted
for by the equity method and classified as other assets. For securities
carried at fair value, the after-tax effect of net unrealized gains and losses
is reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity.

     Securities classified as trading assets are carried at fair value, with
net unrealized holding gains and losses recognized currently in income. Debt
securities, which the Company has the ability and intent to hold until
maturity, are classified as held-to-maturity and stated at cost, adjusted for
discount accreted and premium amortized. Realized gains and losses on the sale
of debt and equity securities are determined by the specific identification
and average cost methods, respectively.

Allowance for Credit Losses - The allowance for credit losses is maintained at
a level that, in management's judgment, is adequate to absorb probable losses
associated with specifically identified loans, as well as estimated probable
credit losses inherent in the remainder of the loan portfolio at the balance
sheet date. Management's judgment includes the following factors, among
others: risks of individual credits; past experience; the volume, composition,
and growth of the loan portfolio; and economic conditions.

     The Company conducts a quarterly portfolio review to determine the
adequacy of its allowance for credit losses. All commercial loans over $1
million are assigned to specific risk categories. Smaller commercial and
consumer loans are evaluated on a pooled basis and assigned to specific risk
categories. Following this review, senior management of the Company analyzes
the results and determines the allowance for credit losses. The Audit and
Examining Committee of the Company's Board of Directors reviews the allowance
at the end of each quarter.

     The portion of the allowance for credit losses allocated to impaired
loans (nonaccrual commercial loans over $1 million) is measured by the
difference between their recorded value and fair value. Fair value is
determined by one of the present value of the expected future cash flows from
borrowers, the market value of the loan, or the fair value of the collateral.

<PAGE> 40

Nonperforming Assets - Commercial loans are placed on nonaccrual status when
collateral is insufficient and principal or interest is past due 90 days or
more, or when there is reasonable doubt that interest or principal will be
collected. Accrued interest is usually reversed when a loan is placed on
nonaccrual status. Interest payments received on nonaccrual loans may be
recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management's
judgment. Nonaccrual loans are restored to accrual status when principal and
interest are current or they become fully collateralized. Consumer loans are
not classified as nonperforming assets, but are charged off and interest
accrued is suspended based upon an established delinquency schedule determined
by product. Real estate acquired in satisfaction of loans is carried in other
assets at the lower of the recorded investment in the property or fair value
minus estimated costs to sell.

Leveraged Leases - Significant assumptions involving cash flows, residual
values and income tax rates affect the level of revenue associated with
leases. Gains and losses on residual values of leased equipment sold are
included in other income.


Derivative Financial Instruments - Effective January 1, 2001, the Company
adopted a new accounting standard related to derivatives and hedging
activities. The new standard requires all derivatives to be included as assets
or liabilities on the balance sheet at fair value through adjustments to
either other comprehensive income or current earnings, or both, as
appropriate.

     The adoption of the new standard as of January 1, 2001 resulted in zero
impact on 2001 net income and a credit of $10 million to accumulated other
comprehensive income. In connection with the adoption of the new standard, the
Company transferred investment securities with a carrying value of $0.6
billion and an unrealized loss of $5 million from its held-to-maturity to its
available-for-sale and trading portfolios.

     Derivative contracts, such as futures contracts, forwards, interest rate
swaps, foreign currency swaps and options and similar products used in trading
activities, are recorded at market value. Gains and losses are included in
other non-interest income. Unrealized gains and losses are reported on a gross
basis in trading account assets and other borrowed funds, after taking into
consideration master netting agreements.

     The Company enters into various derivative financial instruments for non-
trading purposes primarily as part of its asset and liability management (ALM)
process. These derivatives are designated and qualify as fair value and cash
flow hedges of certain assets and liabilities in accordance with the new
standard. Gains and losses associated with fair value hedges are recorded in
income as well as any change in the value of the related hedged item. Gains
and losses on cash flow hedges are recorded in other comprehensive income. If
a derivative used in ALM does not qualify as a hedge it is marked to market
and the gain or loss is included in net interest income.

     The Company utilizes interest rate swap agreements to manage its exposure
to interest rate fluctuations. Interest rate swaps are used to convert fixed
rate loans, deposits and long-term debt to floating rates, and to hedge
interest rate resets of variable rate cash flows. Basis swaps are used to
convert various variable rate borrowings to LIBOR which better matches the
assets funded by the borrowings. Cross-currency swaps are used to hedge
exposure to exchange rate fluctuations on principal and interest payments for
borrowings denominated in foreign currencies.

     The Company formally documents all relationships between hedging
instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk-management objective and

<PAGE> 41

strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. This process includes
linking all derivatives that are designated as fair-value hedges to specific
assets or liabilities on the balance sheet. The Company also formally assesses
(both at the hedge's inception and on an ongoing basis) whether the
derivatives that are used in hedging transactions have been highly effective
in offsetting changes in the fair value of hedged items and whether those
derivatives may be expected to remain highly effective in future periods. The
Company will discontinue hedge accounting prospectively when it determines
that the derivative is no longer an effective hedge, the derivative expires or
is sold, or management discontinues the derivative's hedge designation.

     For the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company recorded
ineffectiveness of $1.5 million related to fair value and cash flow hedges in
other income. Also during the same period, the Company recorded a credit of $1
million to other comprehensive income arising from the change in value of cash
flow hedges. In addition, it reclassified a deferred loss on expired interest
rate futures contracts of $1 million from accumulated other comprehensive
income to a charge to interest expense.

     The Company also utilizes foreign exchange forward contracts to manage
currency exposure relating to its net investments in non-U.S. dollar
functional currency operations. The change in fair market value of these
contracts is deferred and reported within cumulative translation adjustments
in shareholders' equity, net of tax effects. Interest elements (forward
points) on these foreign exchange forward contracts are recorded in other
comprehensive income, net of tax effects.

     The amounts recognized as other comprehensive income for cash flow hedges
are reclassified to net interest income as interest is realized on the hedging
derivative. Assuming interest rates remain stable, a minimal amount is
expected to be reclassified to income over the next twelve months.

     Prior to the adoption of the new standard, derivative contracts were
either recorded in the trading account or designated as an element of the
Company's asset and liability management (ALM) process when they altered the
Company's interest rate and foreign currency exposures. Contracts used in the
ALM process were linked to specific groups of similar assets or liabilities
where there was a high correlation between the derivative contract and the
item altered, both at inception and throughout the contract period. ALM
derivative contracts were accounted for on the deferral, accrual, or mark-to-
market basis. Under the deferral or accrual method, gains and losses on
terminated derivative contracts were deferred and amortized over the remaining
life of the linked assets or liabilities. Gains and losses on derivative
contracts linked to assets and liabilities that were sold were recognized as
an adjustment to the gain or loss of the balance sheet item. Under the mark-
to-market method, all gains and losses were recognized in income immediately.
Derivatives in the trading account were accounted for in the same manner as
required under the new standard.

Recent Accounting Developments - Effective January 1, 2002, new accounting
standards related to acquisitions and goodwill will require the Company to
stop amortizing goodwill. The Company estimates that the new standard will add
9 cents per share to earnings per share in 2002. The new standard will also
require the Company to test goodwill for impairment at a reporting unit level.
Based on current evaluations, the Company does not expect to record any
impairment charge for goodwill in 2002. Prior to 2002, the Company
periodically analyzed goodwill for impairment based on current operating
performance and current expectations with respect to recoverability.

Reclassifications - Company Obligated Mandatory Redeemable Preferred Trust
Securities of Subsidiary Trusts Holding Solely Junior Subordinated Debentures

<PAGE> 42

("Preferred Trust Securities") have been reclassified to Long-Term Debt.
Certain other prior year information has been reclassified to conform its
presentation with the 2001 financial statements.

2.  Acquisitions and Dispositions

The Company continues to be an active acquirer of securities servicing and
asset management businesses. During 2001, nine businesses were acquired for a
total cost of $647 million, primarily paid in cash. The Company records the
fair value of contingent payments as an additional cost of the entity acquired
in the period that the payment becomes probable.

     Goodwill related to 2001 acquisition transactions was $452 million,
substantially all of which is deductible for tax purposes. All of the goodwill
was assigned to the Company's Servicing and Fiduciary Business segment. At
December 31, 2001, the Company was liable for potential contingent payments
related to its acquisitions in the amount of $176 million. The pro forma
effect of the 2001 acquisitions is not material to the 2001 results. During
2001, the Company paid $41 million for contingent payments related to
acquisitions made in prior years.

     Realized gross gains on the sale of securities available-for-sale were
$173 million and $130 million in 2001 and 2000. There were $4 million of
realized gross losses in 2001 and $13 million of realized gross losses in
2000.

     At December 31, 2001, assets amounting to $14.3 billion were pledged
primarily for potential borrowing at the Federal Reserve Discount Window. The
significant components of pledged assets were as follows: $4.7 billion were
securities, $9.1 billion were loans, and the remaining $0.5 billion were
primarily trading assets. Included in these pledged assets were securities
available-for-sale of $472 million which were pledged as collateral for actual
borrowings. The lenders in these borrowings have the right to repledge or sell
these securities. The Company obtains securities under resale, securities
borrowed and custody agreements on terms which permit it to repledge or resell
the securities to others. At December 31, 2001, the Company had pledged $79
million of such securities in connection with the Company's financing
activities.

4.  Loans

The Company's loan distribution and industry concentrations of credit risk at
December 31, 2001 and 2000 are incorporated by reference from "Loans" in the
Management's Discussion and Analysis Section of this report. The Company's
retail, community, and regional commercial banking operations in the New York
metropolitan area create a significant geographic concentration.

     In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its banking
subsidiaries have made loans at prevailing interest rates and terms to
directors and executive officers of the Company and to certain entities to
which these individuals are related. The aggregate dollar amount of these
loans was $684 million, $881 million, and $432 million at December 31, 2001,
2000, and 1999. These loans are primarily with related entities under
revolving lines of credit. During 2001, these loans averaged $702 million, and
ranged from $570 million to $883 million. All loans were fully performing
during this period.

     Nonaccrual and reduced rate loans outstanding at December 31, 2001, 2000,
and 1999 were $220 million, $189 million, and $146 million. At December 31,
2001, commitments to borrowers whose loans were classified as nonaccrual or
reduced rate were not material.

     The Company uses the discounted cash flow method as its primary method
for valuing its impaired loans. The table below sets forth information about
the Company's impaired loans at December 31,:

Interest Income Recognized on
 Impaired Loans during the Year                  2.5          1.9        0.2

(1)  When the discounted cash flows, collateral value or market price equals
     or exceeds the carrying value of the loan, then the loan does not require
     an allowance under the accounting standard related to impaired loans.
(2)  The allowance for impaired loans is included in the Company's allowance
     for credit losses.

     Interest income recognized on total nonaccrual and reduced rate loans
exceeded reversals by $1 million in 2001, $2 million in 2000, and $1 million
in 1999. Interest income would have been increased by $9 million, $9 million,
and $8 million if loans on nonaccrual status at December 31, 2001, 2000, and
1999 had been performing for the entire year. At year-end, foreign loans on
nonperforming status were $64 million in 2001, $48 million in 2000, and $63
million in 1999. Interest income received on foreign nonperforming loans
equaled reversals in 2001, 2000, and 1999. If foreign loans on nonaccrual
status at December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999 had been performing for the entire
year, interest income would not have been affected in 2001 and would have been
increased by $1 million for 2000 and 1999.

     Other real estate was $2 million, $4 million, and $12 million at December
31, 2001, 2000, and 1999. Writedowns of and expenses related to other real
estate included in noninterest expense were $2 million, $4 million, and $1
million in 2001, 2000, and 1999.

(1) The under five years category above includes $732 million of fixed rate
    debt with scheduled maturity of under one year.

(2) At December 31, 2001, subordinated debt aggregating $1,020 million is
    redeemable at the option of the Company as follows: $410 million in 2002;
    $435 million in 2003; and $175 million in 2004.

     Fixed rate subordinated debt at December 31, 2001 had interest rates
ranging from 2.53% to 8.50%. Preferred Trust Securities at December 31, 2001
had fixed interest rates ranging from 6.88% to 7.97%. The weighted average
interest rates on fixed rate subordinated debt at December 31, 2001 and 2000
were 7.07% and 7.34%. The weighted average interest rates on variable rate
subordinated debt at December 31, 2001 and 2000 were 2.20% and 6.62%. The
weighted average interest rate on Preferred Trust Securities at December 31,
2001 and 2000 was 7.56%. Exposure to interest rate movements is reduced by
interest rate swap agreements. As a result of these agreements, the effective
interest rates differ from those stated.

     Wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company ("the Trusts") have issued
cumulative Company-Obligated Mandatory Redeemable Preferred Trust Securities
of Subsidiary Trust Holding Solely Junior Subordinated Debentures ("Preferred
Trust Securities"). The sole assets of each trust are junior subordinated
deferrable interest debentures of the Company, whose maturities and interest
rates match the Preferred Trust Securities. The Company's obligations under
the agreements that relate to the Preferred Trust Securities, the Trusts and
the debentures constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company of
the Trusts' obligations under the Preferred Trust Securities.

IV to 2012, 2013 and 2013 or extend the maturity to 2046, 2047 and 2047.

6.  Securitizations

The Company currently provides services to three qualified special purpose
entities ("QSPE's") as of December 31, 2001. All of the Company's
securitizations are QSPE's as defined in Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 140 which by design are passive investment vehicles. Total rate
of return swaps entered into in connection with the securitization
transactions are recorded in the trading account at fair value with the gain
or loss included in net income.

     Since 2000, the Company sells and distributes securities for an asset
backed commercial paper securitization program. The Company services the
program and receives an annual fee of approximately 5 basis points. The
Company provides liquidity and credit enhancement to the program through a
total rate of return swap. Under the terms of the swap, the Company pays the
funding cost of the program plus the expenses and receives the return on the
assets. The $550 million of program assets at December 31, 2001 consist of 32%
rated AAA, 55% rated AA2 and 13% rated A1+. The Company has not recognized any
gain on the sale of assets to this program. The authorized size of the program
is $5 billion. The purpose of the securitization is to hold highly rated low-
risk medium-term customer obligations in a capital efficient manner.

     In 2000, the Company purchased BNY Hamilton Money Fund shares with a
market value of $400 million.  The Company then sold the right to receive the
principal value of the shares in 2021 in a securitization transaction and
retained the rights to receive on-going dividends from the shares. The Company
did not recognize a gain on the sale. The purpose of this securitization is to
achieve a favorable after-tax risk-adjusted investment return. The Company
sponsors the BNY Hamilton Money Fund and receives an administrative fee for
servicing the fund.  The Company hedged a portion of the interest rate risk of
the transaction by entering into a $200 million interest rate swap with a
third party. The retained interest is recorded in available-for-sale
securities in the consolidated balance sheet.

     The Company also sponsored a $53 million municipal bond securitization
for which no gain was recognized. The Company provides liquidity and credit
enhancement through a total rate of return swap. All of the bonds in the
program are rated at least A2/VMIG1. The program's purpose is to achieve a
favorable after-tax risk-adjusted investment return.

     The impact of these securitizations on the Company's fully diluted
earnings per share is less than 1 cent. Furthermore, if these transactions
were consolidated on the balance sheet, there would have been virtually no

<PAGE> 50

impact on the Company's liquidity, and the Tier 1 and Total Capital ratios at
December 31, 2001 would have been 8.03% and 11.49%, respectively vs. 8.11% and
11.57% as reported.

     The Company plans to start another asset backed commercial paper program
in 2002.  The objective of this program is to provide the Company's customers
with an alternative investment vehicle. Institutional deposit customers may
buy commercial paper of this program rather than leaving funds on deposit with
the Company.  The program will then invest the customers' funds primarily in
short-term investments.  The Company expects to enhance the credit worthiness
of the program by entering into a total rate of return swap with it. The
authorized size of this securitization is expected to be $5 billion.

7.  Shareholders' Equity

The Company currently plans to buy back up to 11 million shares of its common
stock in 2002. In 2001, the Company's shareholders authorized an increase in
the Company's common stock from 1.6 billion common shares to 2.4 billion
common shares. In addition to the Class A preferred stock, the Company has
5 million authorized shares of preferred stock having no par value, with no
shares outstanding at either December 31, 2001 or 2000.

     The Company's preferred stock purchase rights plan (each share of stock
has one right) provides that if any person or group becomes the beneficial
owner of 20% or more of the Company's common stock (an "acquiring person"),
then on and after the tenth day thereafter, each right would entitle the
holder (other than the acquiring person) to purchase $200 in market value of
the Company's common stock for $100. In addition, if there is a business
combination between the Company and an acquiring person, or in certain other
circumstances, each right (if not previously exercised) would entitle the
holder (other than the acquiring person) to purchase $200 in market value of
the common stock of the acquiring person for $100. The rights are redeemable
by the Company at $0.05 per right until they are exercisable, and will expire
in 2004.

     At December 31, 2001, the Company had reserved for issuance approximately
54 million common shares pursuant to the terms of employee benefit plans and
30 million common shares pursuant to the terms of securities buyback programs.

Basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated as follows:

     The assumed health care cost trend rate used in determining benefit
expense for 2001 is 7.5% decreasing to 5.0% in 2005 and thereafter. An
increase in this rate of one percentage point for each year would increase the
benefit obligation by 9% and the sum of the service and interest costs by
9.5%. A decrease in this rate of one percentage point for each year would
decrease the benefit obligation by 7.5% and the sum of the service and
interest costs by 8%.

     The Company has an Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") covering
substantially all domestic full-time employees with more than one year of
service. The ESOP may provide additional retirement benefits. Contributions
are made equal to required principal and interest payments on borrowings by
the ESOP. Contributions were approximately $1 million in 2001, $0.5 million in
2000 and 1999.

     The Company has defined contribution plans for which it recognized a cost
of $96 million in 2001, $101 million in 2000 and $94 million in 1999.

10.  Company Financial Information

The Bank of New York (the "Bank"), the Company's primary banking subsidiary,
is subject to dividend limitations under the Federal Reserve Act and state
banking laws. Under these statutes, prior regulatory approval is required for
dividends in any year that would exceed the Bank's net profits for such year
combined with retained net profits for the prior two years. The Bank is also
prohibited from paying a dividend in excess of undivided profits.

     Under the first and more significant of these limitations, in 2002 the
Bank could declare dividends of $483 million plus net profits earned in 2002.

     The Federal Reserve Board can prohibit a dividend if payment would
constitute an unsafe or unsound banking practice. The Federal Reserve Board
generally considers that a bank's dividends should not exceed earnings from
continuing operations.

     The Company's capital ratios and discussion of related regulatory
requirements are incorporated by reference from the "Capital Resources"
section of Management's Discussion & Analysis.

     The Federal Reserve Act limits and requires collateral for extensions of
credit by the Company's banks to the Company and certain of its non-bank
affiliates. Also, there are restrictions on the amounts of investments by such
banks in stock and other securities of the Company and such affiliates, and
restrictions on the acceptance of their securities as collateral for loans by
such banks. Extensions of credit by the banks to each of the Company and such
affiliates are limited to 10% of such bank's regulatory capital, and in the
aggregate for the Company and all such affiliates to 20%, and collateral must
be between 100% and 130% of the amount of the credit, depending on the type of
collateral.

     The subsidiary banks of the Company are required to maintain reserve
balances with Federal Reserve Banks under the Federal Reserve Act and
Regulation D. Required balances averaged $583 million and $401 million for the
years 2001 and 2000.

The Company's condensed financial statements are as follows:

11.  Other Noninterest Income and Expense

Other noninterest income includes equity in earnings of unconsolidated
subsidiaries of $37 million, $35 million, and $20 million in 2001, 2000, and
1999. In 2001, other noninterest income included a $175 million insurance
recovery. In 1999, other noninterest income included a pre-tax gain of $1,020
million on the sale of BNYFC and a liquidity charge of $124 million on the
accelerated disposition of certain loans.

     Other noninterest expense includes amortization of goodwill and
intangibles of $112 million, $115 million, and $102 million in 2001, 2000, and
1999. Noninterest expense in 2001 included $168 million of expenses associated
with the WTC disaster.

12.  Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments (i.e., monetary
assets and liabilities) are determined under different accounting methods-see
Note 1. The following disclosure discusses these instruments on a uniform
basis - fair value. However, active markets do not exist for a significant
portion of these instruments, principally loans and commitments. As a result,
fair value determinations require significant subjective judgments regarding
future cash flows. Other judgments would result in different fair values.
Among the assumptions used by the Company are discount rates ranging
principally from 2% to 8% at December 31, 2001 and 5% to 10% at December 31,
2000. The fair value information supplements the basic financial statements
and other traditional financial data presented throughout this report.

     A summary of the practices used for determining fair value is as follows:

Securities, Trading Activities, and Derivatives Used for ALM
- ------------------------------------------------------------
     The fair value of securities and trading assets and liabilities is based
on quoted market prices, dealer quotes, or pricing models. Fair value amounts
for derivative instruments, such as options, futures and forward rate
contracts, commitments to purchase and sell foreign exchange, and foreign
currency swaps, are similarly determined. The fair value of interest rate
swaps is the amount that would be received or paid to terminate the agreement.

Loans and Commitments
- ---------------------
     For certain categories of consumer loans, fair value includes
consideration of the quoted market prices for securities backed by similar
loans. Discounted future cash flows and secondary market values are used to
determine the fair value of other types of loans. The fair value of
commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, and commercial
letters of credit is based upon the cost to settle the commitment.

Other Financial Assets
- ----------------------
     Fair value is assumed to equal carrying value for these assets due to
their short maturity.

Deposits, Borrowings, and Long-Term Debt
- ----------------------------------------
     The fair value of noninterest-bearing deposits is assumed to be their
carrying amount. The fair value of interest-bearing deposits, borrowings, and
long-term debt is based upon current rates for instruments of the same
remaining maturity or quoted market prices for the same or similar issues.

     The carrying amount and estimated fair value of the Company's financial
instruments are as follows:

</TABLE>

     The Company's financial assets and liabilities are primarily variable
rate instruments. Fixed rate loans and deposits are issued to satisfy customer
and investor needs. Derivative financial instruments are utilized to manage
exposure to the effect of interest rate changes on fixed rate assets and
liabilities, and to enhance liquidity. The Company matches the duration of
derivatives to that of the assets and liabilities being hedged, so that
changes in fair value resulting from changes in interest rates will be offset.

     The Company uses interest rate swaps, futures contracts, and forward rate
agreements to convert fixed rate loans, deposits, and long-term debt to
floating rates. Basis swaps are used to convert various variable rate
borrowings to LIBOR which better matches the assets funded by the borrowings.

     The Company uses forward foreign exchange contracts to protect the value
of its investments in foreign subsidiaries. The after-tax effects are shown in
the cumulative translation adjustment included in shareholders' equity. At
December 31, 2001 and 2000, $814 million and $749 million in notional amount
of foreign exchange contracts, with fair values of $(12) million and $(21)
million, hedged corresponding amounts of foreign investments. These foreign
exchange contracts had a maturity of less than 6 months at December 31, 2001.

     Deferred net gains or losses on ALM derivative financial instruments at
December 31, 2001 and 2000 were $1 million credit and $2 million debit.

     Net interest income increased by $50 million in 2001, $6 million in 2000,
and $5 million in 1999 as a result of ALM derivative financial instruments.

     A discussion of the credit, market, and liquidity risks inherent in
financial instruments is presented under "Liquidity", "Market Risk
Management", "Trading Activities and Risk Management", and "Asset/Liability
Management" in the unaudited Management's Discussion and Analysis Section of

     Foreign exchange includes income from purchasing and selling foreign
exchange, futures, and options. Interest rate contracts reflect results from
futures and forward contracts, interest rate swaps, foreign currency swaps,
and options. Debt and other securities primarily reflect income from debt
securities.

14. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

In the normal course of business, various commitments and contingent
liabilities are outstanding which are not reflected in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets. Management does not expect any material losses to
result from these matters.

     The Company's significant trading and off-balance-sheet risks are
securities, foreign currency and interest rate risk management products,
commercial lending commitments, letters of credit, and securities lending
indemnifications. The Company assumes these risks to reduce interest rate and
foreign currency risks, to provide customers with the ability to meet credit
and liquidity needs, to hedge foreign currency and interest rate risks, and to
trade for its own account. These items involve, to varying degrees, credit,
foreign exchange, and interest rate risk not recognized in the balance sheet.
The Company's off-balance-sheet risks are managed and monitored in manners

<PAGE> 61

similar to those used for on-balance-sheet risks. There are no significant
industry concentrations of such risks.

     A summary of the notional amount of the Company's off-balance-sheet
credit transactions, net of participations, at December 31, 2001 and 2000
follows:

Off-Balance-Sheet Credit Risks

In millions                                   2001             2000
- -----------                                 -------          -------
Commercial Lending Commitments             $ 45,773         $ 47,688
Standby Letters of Credit                     8,459            7,743
Commercial Letters of Credit                    946            1,230
Securities Lending Indemnifications         107,134          106,560
Standby Bond Purchase Agreements              2,800                -

     The total potential loss on undrawn commitments, standby and commercial
letters of credit, and securities lending indemnifications is equal to the
total notional amount if drawn upon, which does not consider the value of any
collateral. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being
drawn upon, the total amount does not necessarily represent future cash
requirements. In securities lending transactions, the Company requires the
borrower to provide collateral, thus reducing credit risk.

     The notional amounts for other off-balance-sheet risks express the dollar
volume of the transactions; however, credit risk is much smaller. The Company
performs credit reviews and enters into netting agreements to minimize the
credit risk of foreign currency and interest rate risk management products.
The Company enters into offsetting positions to reduce exposure to foreign
exchange and interest rate risk.

     Standby letters of credit principally support corporate obligations and
include $0.3 billion and $0.4 billion that were collateralized with cash and
securities at December 31, 2001 and 2000. At December 31, 2001, approximately
$6.9 billion of the standbys will expire within one year, and the balance
between one to five years. At December 31, 2001 and 2000, securities lending
indemnifications were secured by collateral of $107.1 billion and $106.6
billion.

     At December 31, 2001, approximately $87 billion of interest rate
contracts will mature within one year, $168 billion between one and five
years, and the balance after five years. At December 31, 2001, approximately
$68 billion of foreign exchange contracts will mature within one year and $3
billion between one and five years. There were no derivative financial
instruments on nonperforming status at year-end 2001.

     Use of derivative financial instruments involves reliance on
counterparties. Failure of a counterparty to honor its obligation under a
derivative contract is a risk the Company assumes whenever it engages in a
derivative contract.

Operating Leases

     Net rent expense for premises and equipment was $165 million in 2001,
$113 million in 2000, and $100 million in 1999.

     At December 31, 2001, the Company and its subsidiaries were obligated
under various noncancelable lease agreements, some of which provide for
additional rents based upon real estate taxes, insurance, and maintenance and
for various renewal options. The minimum rental commitments under
noncancelable operating leases for premises and equipment having a term of
more than one year from December 31, 2001 are as follows:

     In the aftermath of the WTC disaster, the Company leased temporary space
for employees to use until their regular workplaces become available. In 2002,
the Company anticipates all its facilities will return to use and temporary
space will be sublet. The Company believes any loss on subleases will be
covered by its insurance.

     In the ordinary course of business, there are various legal claims
pending against the Company and its subsidiaries. In the opinion of
management, liabilities arising from such claims, if any, would not have a
material effect upon the Company's consolidated financial statements.

15.  Stock Option Plans

The Company's stock option plans ("the Option Plans") provide for the issuance
of stock options at fair market value at the date of grant to officers and
employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. Under the Company's plan,
options to acquire common stock may be granted in amounts that do not exceed
70 million shares. Generally, each option granted under the Option Plans is
exercisable between one and ten years from the date of grant.

     The Company accounts for its Option Plans under Accounting Principles
Board Opinion 25. As a result, compensation cost is not recorded. If
compensation cost for these plans had been based on fair value, net income
would have been reduced by $57 million in 2001, $37 million in 2000 and
$31 million in 1999. Also, diluted earnings per share would have been reduced
by 8 cents per share in 2001, 5 cents per share in 2000 and 4 cents per share
in 1999.

     The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes Model for determining the
impact of accounting for the Option Plans at fair value for 2001 are as
follows: dividend yield of 3%; expected volatility of 28%; risk free interest
rate of 4.83%; and expected option lives of 5 years.

     A summary of the status of the Company's Option Plans as of December 31,
2001, 2000, and 1999, and changes during the years ending on those dates is
presented below:

Report of Independent Auditors

TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND SHAREHOLDERS OF
THE BANK OF NEW YORK COMPANY, INC.
NEW YORK, NEW YORK

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of The Bank of
New York Company, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and
the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders'
equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 2001. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on
a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of The Bank of New
York Company, Inc. and subsidiaries at December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the
consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 2001, in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

                                               /S/ Ernst & Young LLP

Global Vision with a Local Focus
- ---------------------------------

Headquartered at One Wall Street, in the heart of the U.S. financial center,
The Bank of New York Company, Inc. has a strong presence throughout the global
capital markets.

The Company has maintained a consistent strategy of focusing on high-growth,
fee-based businesses that has transformed the Bank from a traditional
commercial bank into the world's premier financial asset servicer.  Today, we
are a market-leader in many businesses that focus on servicing securities
issuers and all forms of investors and intermediaries. Our well-diversified
franchise has become an integral part of the infrastructure for the global
capital markets, and the breadth of our products and services allows us to
build client relationships through many different avenues in all markets and
regions throughout the world.

This strategic transformation is evident in the increased earnings
contribution from our fiduciary and securities servicing businesses. These
high-growth, fee-based businesses now comprise 55% of total normalized
earnings, up from 27% in 1995. Traditional banking activities, which comprised
73% of total earnings in 1995, now make up only 45% of normalized earnings.
Our continued focus on fee-based businesses resulted in non-interest income
growing to 66% of total normalized revenue in 2001, up from 64% the year
before and 47% five years ago.

Our businesses are well positioned to continue to benefit from attractive
long-term trends. Trends such as the growth of financial assets worldwide;
increased cross-border investing; regulatory reporting requirements in
multiple domiciles; and the growing reliance on technology to deliver
information on a "real-time" basis, all play to the strength of The Bank of
New York's servicing model.

Another growing trend that drives our business is that of outsourcing. In its
most basic form, outsourcing is providing a suite of products that replace the
back- or middle-office functions of the client, allowing the client to focus
on its core competencies.

For The Bank of New York, securities servicing has become a growth business, a
scale business and a global business.

A key to the success of our strategy is our commitment to maintaining our
position as a technology leader in servicing major participants in the global
financial markets. Our investment in technology, which increased from $308
million in 1997 to $588 million in 2001, provides a strong platform to meet
client needs, improve productivity, integrate new businesses and develop new
products. It also provides a competitive advantage in winning new business.

We also continue to make acquisitions and announced nine in 2001. These
focused acquisitions, which add both new customers and new products, continue
to be an important factor in our strategy as we expand our fee-based
businesses. We have completed more than 70 acquisitions since 1994, most of
these related to our securities servicing businesses. Acquisitions are used to

<PAGE> 67

enhance our product offering, expand our geographical reach, and consolidate
scale businesses, such as corporate trust, clearing services and global
custody.

New international growth opportunities are arising from global trends, which
require our client base to respond in increasingly complex ways. We have
adapted our proven business model to meet those requirements and have extended
it to various international markets, particularly in Europe and Asia. This is
evidenced by our increasing non-U.S. revenues from 14% in 1996 to 30% in 2001.

As clients' needs become increasingly global, our global relationship
management team provides the key to expanding our business with corporate and
institutional clients worldwide. Our relationship managers are the focal point
for creating broad partnerships with our clients. They are responsible for
coordinating with product specialists and executing the delivery of all of our
products and services, from the sales process through continuing support.
While the Bank's client base covers a range of industries, our global
relationship managers are particularly focused on those clients that are major
users of our securities servicing infrastructure, such as financial services
firms.

We provide a complete range of banking and other financial services to a wide
variety of corporate, institutional and retail customers, and major financial
institutions, both public and private, throughout the world. Our products and
services are organized into five major business lines: Securities Servicing
and Global Payment Services, Private Client Services and Asset Management,
Corporate Banking, Global Markets and Retail Banking.


SECURITIES SERVICING AND GLOBAL PAYMENT SERVICES

Securities Servicing and Global Payment Services is our largest and fastest
growing business segment, contributing 61% of total fee revenues in 2001.  Fee
revenues from these businesses grew to $2.05 billion in 2001 compared to $1.91
billion in the prior year.

We are a market leader in many of the businesses in this segment, with
specialized services and expertise required to help institutions worldwide
mitigate risk, maximize performance, manage costs, and realize new
opportunities.

Through the infrastructure we provide to the capital markets, we support
broker/dealers and other market participants with essential services such as
securities clearance, securities lending, collateral management and liquidity.
We provide critical back-office functions for issuers of securities, including
all types of fixed-income securities, equities, American depositary receipts
and exchange-traded funds.

This is a scale business for us in terms of number of markets and clients
served, combined with the breadth of products we offer. Our business is driven
by growth in cross-border investing and asset managers' global expansion. To
support our global business, we have a sub-custodian network located in more
than 100 key markets.

We continue to commit our substantial intellectual, financial and
technological resources to help global issuers and investors meet the
pressures of a changing and challenging marketplace.

<PAGE> 68

As our clients and businesses expand globally, the Bank is adapting its
strategy to the growing international markets and is well prepared to
service those market participants. We have developed a leading global
custodian position and now service $3 trillion in assets for European
clients with regional operations in London and Brussels and with support
from our Singapore operations center. We have also developed a leading
position as an offshore mutual fund servicer with locations in Dublin,
the Channel Islands and Luxembourg, and offer an integrated package of
solutions including fund administration, fund accounting and trustee
services.

In the United Kingdom, the Bank is a leading provider of investor services,
including trustee and depository, servicing more than 1,500 U.K. pension
funds, or 20% of the assets belonging to that market. Our proprietary European
transfer agency system services 25% of the U.K. retail administration
marketplace. Throughout the U.K., we are a full-service local institution with
global capabilities servicing both issuers and investors.  We are also a
leading European fund administrator delivering a pan-European service on a
common technology platform through key service centers.


INVESTOR SERVICES

Through our Investor Services sector, we offer our clients integrated
solutions for the full spectrum of global investing. Beginning with pre-trade
analysis and portfolio modeling and carrying through to post-trade processing,
we provide a single source for products and services that address all phases
of the investment lifecycle. Leveraging our integrated browser-based client
communication portal, INFORM, clients have access to a single gateway to our
diverse products and services and their information resident on our systems.

Industry specialization allows us to approach relationships from a client
perspective while offering consultative expertise and tailored solutions to
mutual funds, fund managers, banks, insurance companies, plan sponsors,
government agencies, broker/dealers, and central banks.

During 2001 we further solidified our position as the world's leading provider
of investor services through the following:

- - The establishment of a Belgian branch of The Bank of New York (Luxembourg)
  S.A. expands our global fund servicing capabilities to cater to the growing
  demand from mutual funds for depository and administration services within
  continental Europe.

- - The opening of a fund accounting and administration office in Orlando,
  Florida, supports rapid business expansion.

- - The expansion of our Irish joint venture - already the largest trustee of
  collective investment funds in Ireland - allows us to deliver integrated
  trustee, custody and fund administration to local Irish funds.

- - Building on our position as a leading global provider of exchange-traded
  funds (ETF) services, we supported the launch of 13 Merrill Lynch-sponsored
  LDRS funds in Europe and were selected to provide administration services
  for the first ETF from a continental European fund manager.

These developments demonstrate our continuing expansion as well as our
commitment to offer asset managers a single source for their entire fund
servicing needs worldwide.

With the continued pressure on fund managers to control operating and capital
expenses, combined with the post-September 11 focus on business recovery,

<PAGE> 69

discussions regarding outsourcing have increased. We are positioned favorably
in the marketplace through our experience as a pioneer in the outsourcing
arena and our ability to offer a T+1-compliant outsourcing infrastructure.

Our ability to help clients mitigate risk, maximize performance, and manage
costs as well as provide quality service continues to distinguish us as a
leading provider of services to investors worldwide.

ISSUER SERVICES

The Bank of New York is the world's premier provider of Issuer Services,
offering the broadest array of products of any servicing company to financial
institutions, corporations, and intermediaries around the world. We are widely
recognized as the world's largest depositary and corporate trust provider, and
our stock transfer services continue to leverage the most comprehensive
technology available in the industry.

We expanded our market leadership position in Depositary Receipts during 2001
by winning 68% of all new sponsored depositary receipt appointments, adding 92
programs from 26 countries. Notable names included the New York Stock Exchange
listings of Nomura, Kookmin and Lloyds TSB banks, Vivendi Environnement, Van
der Moolen, as well as the government privatizations of Statoil and Aluminum
Corporation of China. We also assumed the depositary receipt business from
HSBC Bank USA.

We are the world leader in public sponsored depositary receipt programs, with
a market share of 66%, representing 1,400 programs from 70 countries.

We launched our enhanced depositary receipt web site, www.adrbny.com. This web
site provides global issuers and advisors, as well as professional and retail
investors, with a comprehensive, up-to-date source of depositary receipt
market data. By combining proprietary depositary receipt data with publicly
available market information, The Bank of New York has created a complete and
useful set of analytics for users around the globe.

Additionally, we launched our interactive depositary receipt event database,
DR Calendar of Events, which provides information about web casts, conference
calls and schedules, earnings release dates, and dividend and stock split
information for non-U.S. companies with depositary receipt programs.

We remain the world market leader for innovative, high-quality Corporate Trust
services. The Bank was ranked as the number one trustee in the U.S.,
administering a portfolio of more than 80,000 trust and agency appointments,
representing more than $1 trillion in outstanding securities for over 30,000
clients worldwide. We are a recognized leader in trust services for several
debt products, including mortgage- and asset-backed securities, corporate and
municipal debt, derivative securities and international debt offerings.

We launched an enhanced web site, www.bnyinvestorreporting.com. This corporate
trust site provides clients with access to detailed information on structured
finance products including asset-backed securities, residential and commercial
mortgage-backed securities, and collateralized debt obligations.

We announced three corporate trust acquisitions in 2001. Most notable was the
corporate trust business of U.S. Trust Corporation, which brought us 5,000
bond trust and agency appointments representing more than $330 billion in
outstanding debt securities. This acquisition added significant market share
in several specialty products and services, including the structured finance
and municipal finance markets in New York State.

<PAGE> 70

As one of the world's largest Stock Transfer agents, we provide a full range
of technology-enhanced services such as record keeping, dividend payment and
reinvestment, proxy tabulation and exchange-agent services to more than 15
million shareholders representing approximately 550 issuers.

The Bank of New York also has one of the most sophisticated imaging platforms
in the industry.  This technology provides straight-through processing
applications that reduce the need for manual intervention and results in
higher quality services because it minimizes the possibility for error.

As a bank-owned transfer agent, The Bank of New York experiences the
tremendous synergies that exist between the stock transfer department and the
larger banking institution. Relationship managers within the transfer agency
are able to draw from the services of other Bank resources to provide all-
encompassing solutions.

BROKERAGE AND CLEARING SERVICES
- --------------------------------

In 2001 we continued to enhance our leadership as a global agency brokerage
and clearing organization by bringing together BNY ESI & CO., INC., BNY
CLEARING SERVICES, LLC, and B-TRADE SERVICES, LLC. The group is focused on
providing a broadly-diversified suite of value-added services and
differentiated technologies that expand the Bank's offerings to institutions,
broker/dealers and corporations.

While last year's market conditions were challenging, BNY ESI had another year
of increased growth fueled by cross selling to Bank clients as well as the
introduction of two services that combined trade execution strategies with
other Bank services:  BNY Global Transition Management and ADR Direct.

BNY Global Transition Management provides pension plan administrators and
sponsors with a comprehensive service to expedite the large-scale transition
or transfer of assets between asset classes and investment managers. Global
Transition Management offers a single point of coordination, guaranteeing a
seamless transition for the client from pre-trade analysis and setting the
trading strategies through trade execution, clearing and post-transition
reporting.

ADR Direct, a trading platform for ADRs, enables institutional investors to
access additional liquidity - on an agency basis - by purchasing shares in
local trading markets and converting them into ADRs. ADR Direct also provides
all foreign exchange, clearance and settlement services.

We also established a new platform focused on commission management and third-
party services through the acquisition of Westminster Research Associates,
which provides services to institutional investors along with an innovative
trading strategy. Westminster Research gives investment managers the ability
to execute trades through a network of top-tier institutional trading desks,
while consolidating all of the administrative, servicing and reporting
functions of their soft-dollar business.

BNY Clearing Services deepened its market penetration and product capabilities
through the integration of Schroder & Co.'s correspondent clearing business;
the acquisition of the correspondent clearing business of Weiss, Peck & Greer,
LLC, which further expanded our client base to include alternative investment
companies; and the commencement of service in London for U.K. and continental
European brokers, through BNY Clearing International.

BNY Clearing Services introduced an enhanced version of its non-discretionary,
fee-based brokerage account called Individual Strategies. This allows retail

<PAGE> 71

clients of BNY Clearing's broker/dealer correspondents to trade commission-
free and gives the correspondent the ability to execute its clients'
investment strategies without incurring ticket charges. Also introduced were
enhanced annuity processing capabilities that allow correspondent firms to
streamline the initial purchase and ongoing maintenance processes of
annuities.

B-Trade Services provides trade execution and clearing services for Bloomberg
Tradebook, LLC, one of the premier alternative trading system platforms for
the institutional investment community, through a strategic alliance with
Bloomberg, LP.

In 2001 we also enhanced our Global Liquidity Services through the launch of
www.moneyfundsdirect.com. This web site was designed to help institutional
investors manage their liquidity and short-term investing with increased
efficiency. Investors have direct access to money market funds from over 15
well-known, non-proprietary fund families. Investors can conveniently research
information on various funds, buy and sell securities, and download reports
and account statements. www.moneyfundsdirect.com makes managing short-term
investments a centralized, easy-to-use, electronic process.


GLOBAL PAYMENT SERVICES
- -----------------------

Global Payment Services provides payment and deposit services, including funds
transfer and Internet-based cash management, and trade services to facilitate
global trade. As a market leader, we offer solutions that optimize cash flow,
integrate systems and increase investment returns to financial institutions
and corporations.

The Bank's CA$H-Register Plus(registered trademark), an innovative, cash
management delivery system, offers a broad range of services on a
browser-based platform to more than 12,000 users. It allows customers to
conduct a growing range of transactions, including wire transfers, ACH
payments and collections, letters of credit, information reporting and
the retrieval of check images.

The Bank is among the top three providers of Funds Transfer services in the
U.S. We process more than 135,000 transactions daily with an aggregate value
in excess of $900 billion. This activity is related to global trade,
securities and foreign exchange transactions.

We deliver Trade Services that facilitate global trade, including letters of
credit, documentary collections, reimbursements and automated inquiry and
reporting as well as outsourcing trade services. Our customers include major
import and export corporations and banks that deliver trade services around
the world.

In 2001 we added new trade outsourcing clients, including two major banks in
Asia. Through our offices in Hong Kong, we provided trade letter of credit
issuance to a major government bank in Southeast Asia under their private
label. Through The Bank of New York's Asian network, we also provided final
letter of credit document examination to improve workflow for a major
correspondent bank. These arrangements allow our clients to focus on their
core competencies while enabling them to generate new revenues and improve
their operating efficiency. Outsourcing our services enables us to leverage
our advanced Internet technology, our imaging capabilities, our regional
presence in Asia and our expertise in global trade processing.

<PAGE> 72

The Bank offers Deposit and Disbursement Services designed to optimize cash
flow to corporate and institutional customers. These services, which range
from traditional checks to image-based controlled disbursements, include
private labeling of the capabilities to U.S. banks through the Internet and
are designed to enable our clients to manage cash by accelerating receipts,
optimizing payments and reducing fraud. Installation of new image technology
is enabling a future generation of services that will meet new Federal Reserve
Bank and industry guidelines that are based on conversion of paper checks to
electronic data and images.


BNY ASSET MANAGEMENT AND PRIVATE CLIENT SERVICES

BNY Asset Management and Private Client Services provide a comprehensive range
of wealth management capabilities designed to meet the current and emerging
needs of wealthy individuals, families, and institutions worldwide.

Against the backdrop of a challenging investment year due to economic
uncertainties, falling interest rates, and the onset of recession, we remained
committed to our long-term core growth strategy for equities. We continued to
grow our business through acquisitions, strengthened  investment capabilities,
enhanced  product and service offerings, and expanded new business
development.

Private client services and asset management fees were $309 million for 2001,
with growth primarily attributed to alternative investment and short-term
money market product lines.

BNY Asset Management, the investment management arm of The Bank of New York,
offers customized portfolio management designed to meet our clients' specific
investment goals. Our investment philosophy emphasizes meeting clients'
objectives while minimizing risk. We grew assets under management to $67
billion and continued to be one of the leading specialty asset managers in the
United States.

The acquisition of Ivy Asset Management in October 2000 positioned us
well in 2001 to meet the strong demand from investors for alternative
investment opportunities. Since becoming a Bank of New York subsidiary,
Ivy Asset has increased its assets under management by $2.4 billion to
more than $4.9 billion, as of December 31, 2001. This growth makes Ivy
one of the larger hedge fund-of-funds managers in the global marketplace.
This growth in assets under management was fueled by demand both in the
U.S. and abroad from institutions and wealthy individuals seeking
alternative investments as a strategy to diversify portfolios in a
volatile economic climate.

The addition of Ivy Asset Management products to our comprehensive investment
alternatives has enabled us to grow our earnings, strengthen our investment
capabilities, and attract new investors. Ivy provides sub-advisory services
and creates products to meet investor demand. As a provider of sub-advisory
services to institutions and pension funds, we now offer, through Ivy Asset
Management, back-office technology, due diligence services, and manager
selection to institutional investors around the world.

Furthering our commitment to new product innovation, we launched BNY Partners
Fund II, raising $40 million in assets. This fund expanded our alternative
investment products offered in the U.S. and abroad. In addition, we launched
in late 2000, the BNY Multi-Manager Hedge Fund, which ended the year with
approximately $103 million in capital and 170 partners.

<PAGE> 73

The Bank was also appointed as the investment advisor for HSBC Funds,
comprising seven portfolios, including equity, bond and money market funds.

The Bank acquired Greenwich Advisors, a privately-held investment advisory
firm, based in Greenwich, Connecticut. In addition, we signed a definitive
agreement to acquire the Core International ADR and Domestic Equity Index
institutional investment management businesses of Axe-Houghton Associates,
Inc., a registered investment adviser. This acquisition will provide a new
dimension in international investing and complements the Bank's industry-
leading position in the ADR issuance marketplace.

These focused acquisitions reinforce the Bank's strategic commitment to
provide a wide range of investment services to institutions and individuals
worldwide.

Private Client Services provides wealth management and objective advisory
services for wealthy individuals and families, corporate executives,
entrepreneurs, and business owners. We customize our services to meet each
client's short- and long-range financial objectives within the context of
their time horizon, tax situation, risk tolerance and liquidity requirements.

During the past year, we added Family Wealth Management Services to our
offerings to serve families with assets greater than $50 million. In
addition to our multi-disciplined team approach and state-of-the-art
master custody capabilities, we also deliver an independent, objective
and highly professional investment consulting service for clients
utilizing multiple money managers. This includes advice on appropriate
asset allocation, manager search and selection, performance analytics and
ongoing monitoring of the managers.

Our Private Client Special Industries group provides specialized services
to meet the unique needs of clients within the real estate, non-profit,
and media industries as well as private equity sponsor firms.

Following the World Trade Center disaster, The Bank of New York was selected
to manage the United Way's September 11th Fund. This fund is being managed on
a pro-bono basis.


CORPORATE BANKING

Corporate Banking coordinates all banking and credit-related services to our
clients. We are strategically focused on those clients and industries that are
major users of our securities and global payment services. Our global
relationship managers lead the Company's effort to cross-sell fee-based
products by leveraging existing relationships into new business opportunities.

We are focused on maintaining strong asset quality and balancing the risks and
profitability of every client relationship. Risk measurement and return on
capital models are used extensively to help mitigate credit risk and ensure
overall client profitability. The result is a continued migration of the
credit portfolio towards investment grade clients who use multiple Bank
products.

<PAGE> 74

Our Corporate Banking capabilities are organized along the following lines:

Financial Companies Services specializes in providing company-specific
securities services solutions to mutual funds companies, insurance companies,
banks, investment managers, government agencies and broker/dealers. The
financial company market comprises our largest and fastest growing segment. We
have relationships with virtually all of the 100 top asset managers worldwide.

Special Industries Banking focuses on the unique requirements in key industry
sectors such as media and telecommunications, public utilities and energy,
automotive, healthcare, retailing, and real estate. In 2001 the Bank formed a
new specialty-banking group focused on endowments, foundations, and other
major non--profit sector clients emphasizing our commitment to that important
market.

U.S. Commercial Banking targets major corporations throughout the United
States, including leading manufacturers, distribution companies and service
organizations. This provides a diverse client base for cross-selling the
Bank's broad range of products and services.

Regional Commercial Banking offers a wide range of banking services, including
traditional lending, cash management, leasing, trade finance, capital markets
and corporate finance to mid-sized companies in the metropolitan New York
area. Additionally, we offer a full range of private banking and asset
management services to the principals as well as retirement plan services for
the employees of these companies.

International Banking relationship managers focus on the securities servicing,
global payment and trade finance needs of our clients through our
international branches and representative offices worldwide. These
relationships are also served through our network of more than 2,300
correspondent banks globally. The result is a unique combination of global
reach and local expertise that delivers maximum benefit to our clients. By
locating many of our offices in the world's most active financial centers, we
provide quick access to the movement of capital worldwide as well as the
reach, resources, and technology needed to compete effectively in the global
marketplace.

BNY Capital Funding LLC, one of the largest bank-owned Leasing companies in
the United States, develops innovative structuring to meet the tax-oriented
equipment financing needs of domestic and international customers. BNY Capital
Funding has a broadly diversified portfolio with arrangements in 17 countries.
BNY Capital Resources Corporation provides financing for corporate and
regional commercial banking clients.

BNY Capital Markets, Inc., a subsidiary, provides our clients with a broad
range of capital markets and investment banking services including the
structuring and underwriting of syndicated financings, the underwriting and
distribution of corporate bonds and investment grade tax-exempt securities,
and the private placement of debt, mezzanine and equity securities. The group
also provides advisory services involving mergers and acquisitions, valuations
and fairness opinions.


GLOBAL MARKETS

Global Markets encompasses our foreign exchange and interest-rate risk
management businesses, including our global trading and sales activities. We

<PAGE> 75

are a premier foreign exchange provider, trading in more than 100 currency
markets with 24-hour trading capability throughout the world. Our execution,
risk management and Internet capabilities in foreign exchange (FX) and
interest rate and currency derivatives are used by U.S. government agencies,
corporate, financial institution and global investment manager clients.
Foreign exchange and other trading fee revenues reached a record $338 million
in 2001.

Our service offerings reach beyond Foreign Exchange trade execution to
concentrate on relationship development. Our professionals develop a precise
understanding of each client's business and work to tailor strategies that
provide value to the Bank's core clients.

We expanded our offering of online FX trading services by launching iFX
Express(servicemark), a streamlined version of iFX Manager(servicemark),
the Bank's industry-leading Internet-based FX trade order management and
execution system for institutional clients. iFX Express is geared toward the
needs of corporate and broker/dealer clients. The Bank also launched
iFX B2B(servicemark), which permits companies that offer transactional
services to its customers to link to the Bank for real-time FX quotation
and payment services. iFX Manager was also enhanced throughout the year,
with new post-trade messaging services added to the system's capabilities
to aid clients in achieving a higher degree of straight-through processing.

During 2001 client traffic via iFX Manager more than doubled over 2000,
demonstrating the increased interest in online trading from the Bank's
clients.

The Bank is also a premier provider of Interest Rate and Currency Derivatives,
including cross currency swaps and options. The Bank's derivatives business is
client-driven, and complemented by sophisticated risk modeling, analysis and
management systems. An enhanced global markets web site introduced in 2001
assisted our clients with risk management strategies and financial market
updates. A dynamic interest rate environment, broader product capabilities and
expanded customer relationships contributed to tripling our 2001 derivatives
revenue from the prior year.

Revenue increased from a sophisticated array of risk management products
distributed to more geographically diverse clients. We expanded relationships
with corporations, financial institutions, governments and supranational
agencies across Europe and Asia. As a result of the world economic slowdown,
interest rates fell globally. Lower rates increased investor use of yield
enhancement products, while borrowers took advantage of lower rates to
refinance debt. Both trends stimulated demand for interest rate derivatives.

Our Strategy and Research professionals publish in-depth fundamental and
technical analyses of FX and interest-rate markets on the Bank's web site:
www.bankofny.com. Our interactive Portfolio Flow Monitor (iPFM) provides real-
time illustrations of cross-border capital flows. These flows are categorized
by investment classes, then mapped against published market data such as FX
rates, equity-market indices, and fixed-income government benchmark issues. In
today's volatile financial markets, our clients increasingly turn to our
decision-support tools and services to help them manage risk. We continue to
invest in FX research capabilities to meet our clients' expanding needs for
research and technology solutions.

BNY Overlay Associates is the Bank's specialist currency overlay manager,
providing investment advisory services to institutional investors and major

<PAGE> 76

corporations. Using proprietary techniques, we manage clients' existing
currency exposures with the twin objectives of managing risk and increasing
overall portfolio returns.

RETAIL BANKING

Our network of 345 branches, including 15 dedicated Business and Professional
Financial Centers, establishes us as a leader in the suburban metropolitan New
York market. We offer a combination of traditional banking and non-traditional
fee-based services including leasing, investment products, insurance plans,
and group banking services to nearly three-quarters of a million individuals
and businesses.

Retail Banking performed well in 2001 as a result of our continued strategic
commitment to building long-term client relationships, diversifying and
expanding our product and service offerings, and growing our fee-based
businesses. Our growth in non-traditional fees of 23% was led by strong
investment sales, debit card volumes and increases in our mutual fund sweep
product, CheckInvest(registered trademark).

We continue to expand our presence in the local business community. Our
ability to service this segment with a wide range of innovative products was
enhanced with the creation of a small business sales force. In March we opened
a new Business and Professional Financial Center in Brooklyn Heights, New
York, that offers customized financial and investment services to help
business owners and professionals manage their business and long-range
personal finances.

BNY Investment Center, Inc. delivers investment products and advisory services
to both personal and business customers. An effective product mix in a
difficult rate environment, led by strong variable and fixed annuity sales,
resulted in an increase in revenue of 25%.

Our mutual fund sweep products, CheckInvest(registered trademark) Select
for personal customers, and our traditional business CheckInvest
(registered trademark), demonstrated continued strong growth in 2001,
with fee revenue up 36%, led by growth in CheckInvest(registered trademark)
Select mutual fund balances, increasing from $100 million to more than
$300 million.

The Direct 24(servicemark) Debit Card and Debit BusinessCard provide
individualsand businesses with convenient access to their checking accounts
and allow them to make purchases worldwide.

Our newly introduced BNY Online(servicemark), an Internet banking and bill
paying service for businesses and individuals, had in excess of 41,000 users
enrolled by year-end.

Small business loan balances were up 20%, and consumer loans, led by our
secured EQUITYLINK(registered trademark) product were up 10%. 2001 was a
highly successful year for asset growth, with strong demand in a low interest
rate environment.

With $14 billion in core deposits, retail banking continues to provide a
stable, low-cost funding source that supports lending activities throughout
the Bank.
