Company News
The Bank of New York Mellon has acquired an additional 101,810 shares of Strategy for approximately $18.7 million, bringing its total holdings to one million shares valued at around $187.2 million at current market prices. The institution, which manages approximately $2.1 trillion in assets, joins a growing number of large organisations establishing significant positions in Strategy as a means of gaining Bitcoin exposure.
The Bank of New York Mellon is expected to report quarterly earnings of $1.93 per share, up 22.2% year-over-year, with revenues forecast at $5.15 billion, a 7.5% increase. The consensus EPS estimate has been revised down 0.5% over the past 30 days. Analysts project total interest-earning assets at $390.81 billion, compared to $354.69 billion last year. Book value per share is expected to reach $58.50, up from $52.82 previously. The Tier 1 capital ratio is forecast at 15.4%, versus 14.7% a year ago. Net interest revenue is projected at $1.32 billion, compared to $1.16 billion in the prior-year quarter. Nonperforming assets are expected to decline to $191.31 million from $213 million last year.
Bank of New York Mellon has partnered with Singapore Gulf Bank, adding the firm to its correspondent banking network and providing access to its Fixed Income Brokerage platform. The deal enables SGB's crypto-native clients to access 24/7 US dollar clearing, money market funds and Treasury bills, bridging digital assets with traditional fixed income. The partnership highlights BNY's growing role in tokenised finance infrastructure, following the bank's recent Digital Asset Summit appearance where its CEO outlined positioning around tokenisation and digital custody. However, analysts view the development as incremental rather than a major near-term catalyst. BNY's narrative projects $23.2 billion revenue and $6.4 billion earnings by 2029, requiring 5% annual revenue growth. Fair value estimates range from $118.67 to $133.83 per share.
Strategy has purchased approximately $330 million worth of Bitcoin between 1 April and 5 April, the company disclosed, even as it reported a $14.5 billion unrealised loss in the first quarter due to Bitcoin's price decline. Bank of New York Mellon has been designated by the US Department of the Treasury as a financial agent for the Trump Accounts programme for newborns. BNY Mellon has partnered with Robinhood, which will serve as brokerage and initial trustee for the accounts. US stocks climbed on Monday as oil prices dropped amid cautious optimism for de-escalation in Middle East hostilities. Iran and the US have reportedly received a Pakistan-prepared plan for ending attacks, according to Reuters.
The US Department of the Treasury has named BNY Mellon as the official financial agent for its Trump Accounts programme, with Robinhood joining as a key partner. BNY Mellon will manage initial accounts and help develop a dedicated mobile application for families to access funds. Robinhood will provide brokerage services and act as initial trustee for the accounts. The secure, white-label platform will remain under full government control whilst emphasising usability and security for first-time users. The initiative aims to expand access to structured savings and investment accounts for younger Americans as part of broader financial inclusion efforts. The Treasury will maintain strict oversight, including performance standards and regulatory compliance. Details on eligibility and funding mechanisms are still emerging.
