History
The Bank of New York, New York's first
bank, opened for business at the Walton House in Lower Manhattan
on June 9, 1784, only a few months after the departure of British
troops from American soil. The bank was created after a small
ad in a newspaper inviting top businessmen to assist in the creation
of a new bank.
The fledgling nation sought economic credibility
during a period when its monetary system was complex and confusing.
Alexander Hamilton, a highly respected
New York attorney and future statesman, was enlisted to write
the new bank's constitution and became the individual most actively
involved in the organization of The Bank of New York, guiding
it through its early stages, and leaving a lasting imprint on
The Bank's philosophy that remains with us today.
As Secretary of the Treasury in George
Washington's first cabinet, Alexander Hamilton negotiated the
first loan obtained by the new government in 1789 for $200,000.
This was a milestone that helped establish the credit of the
U.S. government and its independence.
The New York Stock Exchange was formed
in 1792, and the first corporate stock to be traded on the NYSE
was The Bank of New York.
The Bank of New York would go on to finance ports and transportation networks in the state including the Erie Canal and New York Subway. The bank was an important contributor to the growth of New York as a financial center.
On Jan. 15, 2010, BNY Mellon sold Mellon United National Bank ("MUNB"), a national bank subsidiary located in Florida.
