                  THE BANK OF NEW YORK COMPANY, INC. REPORTS
                Third Quarter Diluted E.P.S. of 49 Cents Up 17%
                    Securities Servicing Fee Revenue Up 37%
                   Return on Average Common Equity of 25.75

NEW YORK, N.Y., October 16, 2000 -- The Bank of New York Company, Inc. (NYSE:
BK) reports third quarter diluted earnings per share of 49 cents, up 17% from
the 42 cents earned on a normalized basis in the third quarter of 1999. Net
income for the third quarter was $363 million, up 16% from the $313 million
earned on a normalized basis in the same period last year. Diluted earnings per
share were $1.42 for the first nine months of 2000, up 16% from the $1.22 earned
on a normalized basis last year. Net income for the first nine months was $1,057
million, an increase of 15% over last year's $916 million earned on a normalized
basis. (See note 1)

     "Our continuing emphasis on offering diversified services to virtually all
segments of the global securities markets results in superior growth in both
revenue and profitability. This quarter's performance continues to reflect the
fundamental strength of our long-term strategy," said Thomas A. Renyi, Chairman
and CEO. In securities servicing, fee revenues increased to a record $427
million, up 37% for the
<PAGE>

quarter. Foreign exchange and other trading revenue increased to $59 million or
31% over last year, benefitting from the continued increase in global trading
volumes. Private client services and asset management fees grew 26% in the
quarter, led by strong performance in all product areas. The Company's continued
focus on fee-based businesses resulted in noninterest income growing to 62% of
total revenue in the third quarter, up from 60% last year.

     Return on average common equity for the third quarter of 2000 was 25.75%
compared with 25.33% on a normalized basis in the third quarter of 1999.  Return
on average assets for the third quarter of 2000 was 1.89% compared with 1.96% on
a normalized basis in the third quarter of 1999. For the first nine months of
2000, return on average common equity totaled 26.55% compared with 25.34% on a
normalized basis in 1999. Return on average assets was 1.83% for the first nine
months of 2000 compared with 1.95% on a normalized basis in 1999.

     Fees from the Company's securities servicing businesses reached a record
$427 million for the third quarter compared with $311 million last year. For the
first nine months of 2000, fees from the Company's securities servicing
businesses totaled a record $1,202 million, growing 33% compared with $904
million in 1999. Fee revenue was strong across all product lines with particular
strength in global custody, depositary receipts ("DRs"), unit investment trust,
and mutual funds as well as global execution and clearing services. Fee revenue
also benefitted from the acquisition of the Royal Bank of Scotland Trust Bank
("RBSTB") in the fourth quarter of 1999. The Company continues to be the world's
leading custodian with assets of $6.9 trillion including $2 trillion of cross-
border custody assets. DR trading activity reached $1 trillion for the first
time during the first nine months of 2000. Cross-border mergers and acquisitions
as well as U.S. investor interest in global telecommunication, media, and
technology industries continued to be the major drivers of trading volume.

     Private client services and asset management fees were $77 million for the
quarter, up 26% over last year, led by continued superior investment performance
by

                                       2
<PAGE>

BNY Asset Management resulting in further new business, as well as by the
acquisition of Estabrook Capital Management, Inc.

     Total revenues from global payment services, excluding trade finance, were
up 10% in the first nine months of 2000. This growth was primarily due to strong
increases in funds transfer with domestic financial service companies as well as
increased cash management revenue associated with broad market acceptance of
CA$H-Register Plus(SM), the Company's new internet delivery system for cash
management services. Trade finance revenues were down from a year ago primarily
due to the sale of BNY Financial Corporation ("BNYFC") and reduced pricing,
driven by the improved risk profiles of select Asian and Latin American markets.

     Foreign exchange and other trading revenues for the quarter increased 31%
over the third quarter of last year to $59 million. In the first nine months of
2000, foreign exchange and other trading revenues were $206 million compared
with $133 million last year. Despite seasonal fluctuations, foreign exchange
revenues remained strong, driven by continued increased transaction flows from
the Company's global securities servicing customer base.

     Net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis for the third quarter
increased to $492 million from $477 million in the second quarter of 2000. For
the first nine months of 2000, net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis
was $1,429 million, compared with $1,292 million in the first nine months of
1999, benefitting from the acquisition of RBSTB, which brought approximately $10
billion in highly liquid, short-term assets and liabilities.

     Tangible diluted earnings per share (earnings before the amortization of
goodwill and intangibles) were 52 cents per share in the third quarter of 2000,
compared with 44 cents per share on a normalized basis in the third quarter of
1999. On the same basis, tangible return on average common equity was 38.89% in
the third quarter of 2000 compared with 36.52% in 1999; and tangible return on
average assets was 2.05% in the third quarter of 2000 compared with 2.11% in
1999. Tangible diluted earnings per share were $1.50 per share for the first
nine months of 2000, compared with $1.34 per share on a normalized basis in
1999. On the same basis, tangible

                                       3
<PAGE>

return on average common equity was 41.11% in the first nine months of 2000
compared with 37.72% on a normalized basis in 1999; and tangible return on
average assets was 1.98% in the first nine months of 2000 compared with 2.19%
last year. Amortization of intangibles for the third quarter and the first nine
months of 2000 was $29 million and $85 million compared with $23 million and $76
million last year.

     The Company's estimated Tier 1 capital and Total capital ratios were 8.29
and 12.68% at September 30, 2000, compared with 8.03% and 12.24% at June 30,
2000, and 8.38% and 12.52% at September 30, 1999. The leverage ratio was 7.42%
at September 30, 2000, compared with 6.80% at June 30, 2000, and 8.10% one year
ago. Tangible common equity as a percent of total assets was 5.75% at September
30, 2000, compared with 5.11% at June 30, 2000, and 5.93% one year ago. The
decline in the leverage and tangible common equity ratios from 1999 primarily
reflects the acquisition of RBSTB. In the third quarter of 2000, the Company
repurchased approximately one million shares under its common stock repurchase
programs.

</TABLE>

     Total noninterest income reached $785 million, up 24% from $635 million in
last year's third quarter, excluding the sale of BNYFC and the liquidity charge.
The decline in cash servicing fees reflects both lower trade finance fees as
well as lower cash management and funds transfer fees due to a rising rate
environment positively impacting the value of customers' compensating balances.
Service charges and fees declined from the second quarter reflecting a reduction
of capital markets activity. Securities gains were $20 million compared with $45
million in the second quarter of 2000 and $50 million one year ago. Other income
in the third quarter of 2000 includes a $26 million payment associated with the
termination of a securities clearing contract entered into in conjunction with
the acquisition of Everen Clearing Corporation. In 1999, other income in the
third quarter included a $1,020 million gain on the sale of BNYFC and a $124
million liquidity charge on loans available for sale.

and $429 million in the third quarter of 1999. The net interest rate spread was
1.93% in the third quarter of 2000, compared with 1.93% in the second quarter of
2000 and 2.21% one year ago. The net yield on interest-earning assets was 3.05%
compared with 2.91% in the second quarter of 2000 and 3.16% in last year's third
quarter.

     For the first nine months of 2000, net interest income on a taxable
equivalent basis, amounted to $1,429 million compared with $1,292 million in
1999.  The year-to-date net interest rate spread was 1.94% in 2000 compared with
2.23% in 1999, while the net yield on interest-earning assets was 2.95% in 2000
and 3.14% in 1999.

     The expansion of the Company's securities servicing, global payment
services, and asset management businesses continues to generate increased levels
of deposits. These additional deposits are being invested in high-quality liquid
assets which increase net interest income, although lowering the net interest-
rate spread. The improvement in the yield from the second quarter of 2000
reflects the Company's increased capital base combined with the growing level
and value of interest-free deposits generated by the Company's securities and
fiduciary businesses.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE AND INCOME TAXES

     Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2000 was $635 million,
compared with $515 million in 1999. The increase was principally due to
acquisitions, technology investment, and new business wins.

     The efficiency ratio for the third quarter of 2000 improved to 50.4%
compared with 51.9% in the second quarter of 2000, partially reflecting the
increase in other

income. For the first nine months of 2000, the efficiency ratio was 51.4%
compared with 50.3% last year. The increase is primarily attributable to the
acquisition of RBSTB in the fourth quarter of 1999. The computation of the
efficiency ratio in 1999 excludes the gain on the sale of BNYFC and the
liquidity charge.

     The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2000 was 35.1% compared
with 34.9% in the second quarter.

     Nonperforming assets totaled $168 million at September 30, 2000, compared
with $162 million at June 30, 2000. The increase in nonperforming other
commercial loans partially reflects a loan to an insurance company. At September
30, 2000, remaining credit exposure of loans available for sale totaled $152
million with outstandings of $81 million compared with $246 million and $144
million, respectively at June 30, 2000.
