CEO's message

On July 1, 2007, The Bank of New York and Mellon merged to create The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation - the leading provider of corporate trust services, serving $11 trillion in outstanding debt, and market leader in depositary receipts with more than 1,270 sponsored programs. The Bank of New York Mellon is also the leading stock transfer agent in the U.S. This alignment with our core businesses positions us well to:

• Leverage new relationships and technology to provide Canadian issuers with enhanced global presence, and opportunities to provide Canadian solutions for global issuers.
• Draw from expanded resources, knowledge and deep expertise to support flexible and dynamic financing solutions.
• Enhance the overall client experience through combined capital and resource investment in our core business.
• Demonstrate the continued commitment and development of our business.

In the coming years, CIBC Mellon looks forward to exploring new opportunities and capabilities for our clients.

As our size, scale and reach continue to grow, we remain committed to working with you, our issuers, and your investors to provide the best knowledge, tools, skills and expertise to help you achieve your goals.

By Thomas C. MacMillan, president & chief executive officer at CIBC Mellon
