When I try to access my account online via www.stockbny.com I am redirected to a website for BNY Mellon? Is BNY Mellon the same as The Bank of New York?
Yes, these two company names are one and the same. They are both part of the Bank of New York Mellon Corporation, a global financial services company formed on July 1, 2007 as a result of the merger of The Bank of New York and Mellon Financial Corporation. The new company is currently in the process of transitioning all former references to The Bank of New York to BNY Mellon. However, for Legal purposes, our Transfer Agent is still under The Bank of New York name.
