The Bank of New York Mellon Creates New Sovereign Advisory Board

Hong Kong and Dubai, United Arab Emirates (ots/PRNewswire)

The Bank of New York Mellon, a global leader in asset management
and securities servicing, has announced the creation of a new
Sovereign Advisory Board in order to best serve sovereign
organizations, which include sovereign wealth funds, sovereign
pension plans, central banks/monetary authorities and sovereign owned
entities.

The new Sovereign Advisory Board will be co-chaired by David
Jiang, Head of BNY Mellon Asset Management in the Asia Pacific
region, and Hani Kablawi, Head of Middle East and Africa. The Board,
which will comprise senior managers from across all of BNY Mellon's
lines of business, has been designed to leverage BNY Mellon's
on-the-ground resources, services and best practices from around the
world, to further develop its strong sovereign client relationships
and product offerings.
"The creation of this group will enable sovereign clients to
benefit from enhanced solutions and a dedicated client service
platform tailored to their specific needs," said Gerald Hassell,
President of The Bank of New York Mellon. "David and Hani's
leadership of a new dedicated sovereign advisory board is clear
indication of the growing importance we place on the role of
sovereign organizations in the world financial markets. We are
uniquely positioned to support their operational and investment
needs."
Sovereign wealth funds have become increasingly prominent over
the past decade, driven in part by record prices in trade surpluses
and commodities in many Middle Eastern and Asian economies. As a
result, the breadth of their investments and the services they
require has evolved. This new Sovereign Advisory Board will ensure
that sovereign clients have greater access to BNY Mellon's broad
range of products and services spanning asset management, asset
servicing, issuer services, clearing services and treasury services.
Hassell added: "The Bank of New York Mellon remains one of the
strongest financial institutions globally with institutions
increasingly turning to us as they seek an eminent and resilient
business partner. The creation of this important board sets the stage
for the acceleration of our business with this key client segment."
