(a) Beginning in the first quarter of 2025, certain rebate agreements, which were previously recorded as distribution and servicing expense, began to be reflected as a reduction of investment management fees. These amounts totaled approximately $20 million for all quarterly periods presented and impacted the year-over-year variances for investment management and performance fees and related revenue subtotals in the table above.

(b) Excludes seed capital gains (losses) related to consolidated investment management funds.

(c) Consists of AUC/A primarily from the Asset Servicing line of business and, to a lesser extent, the Clearance and Collateral Management, Issuer Services, Pershing and Wealth Management lines of business. Includes the AUC/A of CIBC Mellon of $2.1 trillion at Sept. 30, 2025, $2.0 trillion at June 30, 2025 and $1.9 trillion at Sept. 30, 2024.

(d) Represents assets managed in the Investment and Wealth Management business segment.

Fee revenue increased 7% compared with the third quarter of 2024 and was flat compared with the second quarter of 2025. The increase compared with the third quarter of 2024 primarily reflects higher investment services fees and financing-related fees, partially offset by lower investment management and performance fees. Compared with the second quarter of 2025, higher investment management and performance fees and financing-related fees were offset by lower foreign exchange revenue.

Investment and other revenue increased $12 million compared with the third quarter of 2024 and $24 million compared with the second quarter of 2025. The increase compared with the third quarter of 2024 primarily reflects a disposal gain and other investment gains, partially offset by higher net securities losses. The increase compared with the second quarter of 2025 primarily reflects a disposal gain and higher client activity in our fixed income and equity trading business.

Investment services fees

Investment services fees increased 10% compared with the third quarter of 2024 and were flat compared with the second quarter of 2025. The increase

compared with the third quarter of 2024 primarily reflects higher client activity, net new business and higher market values. Compared with the second quarter of 2025, higher market values and client activity was offset by lower Depositary Receipts revenue.

AUC/A totaled $57.8 trillion at Sept. 30, 2025, an increase of 11% compared with Sept. 30, 2024, primarily reflecting net client inflows and higher market values. AUC/A consisted of 38% equity securities and 62% fixed income securities at Sept. 30, 2025 and 37% equity securities and 63% fixed income securities at Sept. 30, 2024.

See “Securities Services business segment” and “Market and Wealth Services business segment” in “Review of business segments” for additional details.

Investment management and performance fees

Investment management and performance fees decreased 2% compared with the third quarter of 2024 and increased 3% compared with the second quarter of 2025. The decrease compared with the third quarter of 2024 primarily reflects the mix of AUM flows and the adjustment for certain rebates

(offset in noninterest expense), partially offset by higher market values and the favorable impact of the weaker U.S. dollar. The increase compared with the second quarter of 2025 primarily reflects higher market values. Performance fees were $6 million in the third quarter of 2025, $13 million in the third quarter of 2024 and $10 million in the second quarter of 2025. On a constant currency basis, investment management and performance fees decreased 2% (Non-GAAP) compared with the third quarter of 2024. See “Supplemental information – Explanation of GAAP and Non-GAAP financial measures” beginning on page 44 for the reconciliation of Non-GAAP measures.

AUM was $2.1 trillion at Sept. 30, 2025, flat compared with Sept. 30, 2024, primarily reflecting higher market values, partially offset by cumulative net outflows.

See “Investment and Wealth Management business segment” in “Review of business segments” for additional details regarding the drivers of investment management and performance fees, AUM and AUM flows.

Foreign exchange revenue

Foreign exchange revenue is primarily driven by the volume of client transactions and the spread realized on these transactions, both of which are impacted by market volatility, the impact of foreign currency hedging activities and foreign currency remeasurement gain (loss). Foreign exchange revenue decreased 5% compared with the third quarter of 2024 and 22% compared with the second quarter of 2025. The decrease compared with the third quarter of 2024 primarily reflects the impact of corporate treasury activity, partially offset by higher volumes. The decrease compared with the second quarter of 2025 primarily reflects lower volatility. Foreign exchange revenue is primarily reported in the Securities Services business segment and, to a lesser extent, the Market and Wealth Services and Investment and Wealth Management business segments and the Other segment.

Financing-related fees

Financing-related fees, which are primarily reported in the Market and Wealth Services and Securities Services business segments, include capital market fees, loan commitment fees and credit-related fees. Financing-related fees increased 26% compared with the third quarter of 2024 and 31% compared with the second quarter of 2025. The increases compared with the third quarter of 2024 and second quarter of 2025 primarily reflect higher underwriting fees.

Investment and other revenue

Investment and other revenue includes income or loss from consolidated investment management funds, seed capital gains or losses, other trading revenue or loss, renewable energy investments gains, income from corporate and bank-owned life insurance contracts, other investment gains or losses, gains or losses from disposals, expense reimbursements from our CIBC Mellon joint venture, other income or loss and net securities gains or losses. The income or loss from consolidated investment management funds should be considered together with the net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests, which reflects the portion of the consolidated funds for which we do not have an economic interest and is reflected below net income as a separate line item on the consolidated income statement. Other trading revenue or loss primarily includes the impact of market-risk hedging activity related to our seed capital investments in investment management funds, non-foreign currency derivative and fixed income trading, and other hedging activity. Other investment gains or losses includes fair value changes of non-readily marketable strategic equity, private equity and other investments. Expense reimbursements from our CIBC Mellon joint venture relate to expenses incurred by BNY on behalf of the CIBC Mellon joint venture. Other income includes various miscellaneous revenues.

The increase in total investment and other revenue compared with the third quarter of 2024 primarily reflects a disposal gain and other investment gains (primarily renewable energy and corporate/bank-owned life insurance), partially offset by higher net securities losses. The increase compared with the second quarter of 2025 primarily reflects a disposal gain and higher client activity in our fixed income and equity trading business.

Fee revenue increased 6% compared with the first nine months of 2024, primarily reflecting higher investment services fees and foreign exchange revenue, partially offset by lower investment management and performance fees. The 9% increase in investment services fees primarily reflects higher

client activity, net new business, higher market values and higher Depositary Receipts revenue. Investment management and performance fees decreased 2%, primarily reflecting the mix of AUM flows and the adjustment for certain rebates (offset in noninterest expense), partially offset by higher market values and the favorable impact of a weaker U.S. dollar. The 5% increase in foreign exchange revenue primarily reflects higher volatility and volumes.

Investment and other revenue increased $75 million compared with the first nine months of 2024, primarily reflecting disposal gains recorded in the first nine months of 2025 and other investment gains (primarily renewable energy and corporate/bank-owned life insurance), partially offset by higher net securities losses.
