What is the modern history of Bank of New York Mellon?

BNY Mellon traces its history all the way back to 1784, when Alexander Hamilton founded the Bank of New York. There was a long series of mergers in the 20^thcentury, with the bank making 33 acquisitions in the five-year period from 1993 to 1998 alone. In 2006, Bank of New York exited retail banking and announced that it would merge with Mellon Financial Corporation. The deal was valued at $16.5 billion, and the merger was finalised in July 2007.

Since the merger, BNY Mellon has made further acquisitions.

BNY Mellon announced in 2015 that it would pay $180 million to settle a forex-related putative class action lawsuit.
