                    THE BANK OF NEW YORK COMPANY, INC.
               Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.  General
    -------

      The accounting and reporting policies of The Bank of New York Company,
Inc. (the Company), a bank holding company, and its subsidiaries, conform with
generally accepted accounting principles and general practice within the
banking industry.  Such policies, except as noted below, are consistent with
those applied in the preparation of the Company's annual financial statements.

      The accompanying financial statements are unaudited.  In the opinion of
management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of financial
position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods have
been made.  Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

2.  Securities
    ----------

     Effective January 1, 1994, the Company accounts for debt and equity
securities classified as available-for-sale at market value, with net
unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component of shareholders'
equity.  Previously such securities were stated at the lower of aggregate cost
or market value.  In connection with this change, the Company reclassified
$1,384 million of securities from held-to-maturity to available-for-sale.  In
addition, $286 million of loans ("Brady Bonds") were reclassified from loans
to securities held-to-maturity.  

     Realized gains on the sale of securities available-for-sale were $7
million and $21 million in the second quarter of 1994 and 1993 and $14 million
and $28 million for the first half of 1994 and 1993.

3.  Allowance for Loan Losses
    -------------------------
      Transactions in the allowance for loan losses are
summarized as follows:

 Balance, End of Period                 $ 885          $1,038
                                        =====           ===== 

     In 1995, a new accounting standard will require the Company
to introduce the time value of money into the determination of
the portion of the allowance for loan losses which relates to
impaired, non-consumer loans.  The loss component of impaired,
non-consumer loans will be measured by the difference between
their recorded value and fair value.  Fair value would be either
the present value of the expected future cash flows from
borrowers, market value of the loan, or the fair value of the
collateral.  At the present time, the impact of the new method on
the Company's results of operations and financial condition is
not expected to be material.

4. Capital Resources
- --------------------
    
     The financial statements reflect a 2-for-1 common stock
split, effective April 22, 1994.  

     In the second quarter of 1994, the Company increased its
quarterly common stock cash dividend to 27.5 cents per share from
22.5 cents per share, and announced a plan to buy back,
throughout the remainder of 1994, up to 5 million of its common
shares.  Shares purchased will be used in connection with certain
employee benefit plans or will be held in treasury.  Through
June 30, 1994 the Company had repurchased approximately 735,000
common shares at a cost of approximately $21 million.

<PAGE> 9.

5.  Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
    --------------------------------------

     In April 1990, the Company notified Northeast Bancorp., Inc.
(NEB)  that NEB had materially breached its obligation under a
merger agreement.  Following denial by the Federal Reserve Board
of the Company's application for approval to acquire NEB and
failure by state regulators to approve the proposed merger prior
to the August 15, 1990 termination date, the Company's Board of
Directors notified NEB in September 1990 that it had terminated
the merger agreement.

     In May 1990, NEB brought suit against the Company in the
United States Court for the District of Connecticut seeking money
damages of $350 million relating to NEB's allegations that the
Company breached its obligations.  In November 1990, the Company
filed a motion for summary judgment to have the lawsuit
dismissed; in June 1991, this motion was granted as to NEB's
Connecticut Unfair Trade Practices Act and libel claims and
denied as to NEB's other claims.  In March 1993, the Company's
motion for summary judgment on NEB's contract claims was denied. 
In May 1993, as part of the acquisition of NEB's Class A voting
common stock by First Fidelity Bancorporation, NEB's interest in
the suit was transferred to a trust funded with $2 million for
the benefit of former NEB shareholders.  The action will
continue.  In the opinion of management, NEB's claims are without
merit.

     In the ordinary course of business, there are various claims
pending against the Company and its subsidiaries.  In the opinion
of management, liabilities arising from such claims, if any,
would not have a material effect upon the Company's consolidated
financial statements.

     A new accounting standard, that became effective on January
1, 1994, requires the Company to recognize unrealized gains and
losses related to certain interest rate and foreign currency
contracts as assets and liabilities on its balance sheet.  The
new standard allows the netting of unrealized gains and losses
with the same counterparty when a master netting agreement is in
effect.  The Company previously presented all unrealized gains
and losses on a net basis.  Reported assets and liabilities
increased by approximately $1,683 million at June 30, 1994 as a
result of the new accounting standard.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
- -----------------------------------------------------------
and Results of Operations
- -------------------------

     The Company reported second quarter net income of $176
million, which compares with net income of $118 million in the
second quarter of 1993, a 49% increase. Fully diluted earnings
per share in the second quarter of 1994 were 87 cents compared
with 57 cents per share in the same period last year, an increase
of 53%.  The second quarter E.P.S. compares with 87 cents in the
first quarter, which included a net gain of 6 cents per share
related to the sale of a portion of the Company's interest in
Wing Hang Bank, Ltd. and a restructuring charge at the Company's
National Community Division.
  
     All per share figures are adjusted for the 2-for-1 common
stock split that was paid on May 13, 1994.
     
     Net income in the first half of 1994 was $355 million, a 41%
increase over the $252 million earned in the first six months of
1993.  Net income was $1.74 per fully diluted share, a 43%
increase over the $1.22 earned last year.

     Net interest income, on a taxable equivalent basis, totaled
$421 million in the second quarter, an all-time high and a $33
million or 9% increase over the second quarter of last year.  The
net interest rate spread of 3.26%, also a quarterly record, was 8
basis points higher than in the first quarter and 6 basis points
higher than the second quarter of 1993.  The Company also noted
increased loan demand and a continued shift in asset mix toward
higher yielding assets.  Credit card outstandings continued to
show strong growth.  A lower provision for loan losses,
substantially lower other real estate expenses, as well as good
performance in the Company's securities and other processing
business also contributed to earnings.  Operating expenses
remained under tight control. 

     Return on average assets in the second quarter of 1994 was
1.42%, slightly lower than the all-time high of 1.50% recorded in
the first quarter of 1994.  Return on average assets was 1.03% in
the second quarter of 1993.  Return on average common equity was
17.67% in the second quarter of 1994, slightly lower than the
record 18.55% achieved in the first quarter of 1994.  Return on
average common equity was 12.65% in the second quarter of 1993.

     The allowance for loan losses was $885 million, or 2.68% of
loans at June 30, 1994 compared with $934 million, or 2.87% of
loans at March 31, 1994. In the second quarter of 1994, the

NET INTEREST INCOME
- -------------------

     On a taxable equivalent basis, net interest income amounted
to a record $421 million in the second quarter of 1994, compared
with $388 million in the same period of 1993, an increase of 9%. 
The net interest rate spread was 3.26% in the second quarter of
1994 compared with 3.18% in the first quarter of 1994 and 3.20%
one year ago.  The net yield on interest earning assets was 3.98%
in the second quarter of 1994 compared with 3.89% in the first
quarter of 1994 and 3.90% in the same period last year.  The
spread and yield benefitted modestly from the return of a
previously securitized portion of the Company's credit card
portfolio to its balance sheet. 

     For the first six months of 1994, net interest income, on a
taxable equivalent basis, amounted to $817 million compared with
$768 million in the same period of 1993, an increase of 6%.  The
year-to-date net interest rate spread was 3.21% in 1994 compared
with 3.15% in 1993, while the net yield on interest-earning
assets was 3.94% in 1994 and 3.86% in 1993.  

<PAGE> 13.

     The Company's credit card business continued its strong
growth.  Managed outstandings were up by 22% to $6.7 billion and
the number of card accounts increased by 28% to 5.5 million from
one year ago.  The credit quality of the card portfolio continues
to be excellent.  Net charge-offs as a percentage of managed
average outstandings were 2.86% in the second quarter of 1994,
down significantly from 3.13% in the first quarter and
3.28% one year ago.

     Interest lost on loans on nonaccrual status at June 30, 1994
and 1993, reduced net interest income by $6 million and $12
million for the three months ended June 30, 1994 and 1993, and by
$12 million and $27 million for the six months ended June 30,
1994 and 1993.

     
NONINTEREST INCOME
- ------------------

     Noninterest income was $321 million and $671 million in the
second quarter and first six months of 1994, compared with $347
million and $677 million in the same periods last year. 
Securities gains and foreign exchange and other trading
activities were lower in the second quarter and six month periods
of 1994 compared with 1993.  The first quarter of 1994
and the second quarter of 1993 included pre-tax gains of $22
million and $24 million, respectively, from the sale of a portion
of the Company's interest in Wing Hang Bank, Ltd.

     Securities processing fees increased 16% to $88 million for
the second quarter of 1994 from $76 million in the second quarter
of 1993.  Most areas contributed to the increase.  Among the
strongest were corporate trust, government securities clearance,
American depositary receipts and mutual fund custody.  Other
processing fees, principally funds transfer, deposit services,
and trade finance, were $43 million for the second quarter of
1994, compared with $39 million in the same period last year, an
increase of 10%.

     For the first six months of 1994, securities processing fees
increased 15% to $175 million and other processing fees increased
10% to $85 million, compared with $152 million and $77 million in
the same period of 1993.

     Service charges and fees were $119 million in the second
quarter of 1994, compared with $116 million in the second quarter
of last year, an increase of 3%.  Areas of particular strength
included syndications, trade finance and factoring commissions. 
In the second quarter, noninterest income attributable to the
Company's credit card securitization was $6 million less than the
comparable period of last year due to the return of a portion of
these assets to the balance sheet.  For the first half of 1994,
service charges and fees were $238 million compared with $229
million in 1993.

<PAGE> 14.

     Securities gains were $4 million and $23 million in the
second quarters of 1994 and 1993; year-to-date securities gains
totaled $16 million and $49 million in 1994 and 1993.  Second
quarter and year-to-date foreign exchange profits and trading
activities totaled $13 million and $29 million in 1994, compared
with $19 million and $42 million in 1993. 


NONINTEREST EXPENSE AND INCOME TAXES
- ------------------------------------

     Total noninterest expense decreased 7% to $410 million in
the second quarter from $441 million in 1993.  Year-to-date total
noninterest expense was $812 million in 1994 compared with $832
million in 1993. 
 
     Other real estate expense declined $29 million to $2 million
in the second quarter.  

     The Company recorded restructuring charges related to its
National Community Division of $3 million in the first quarter of
1994 and $35 million in the second quarter of 1993.

     Most noninterest expense categories were down from the
second quarter of 1993.  Excluding restructuring charges and the
effect of factoring and corporate trust acquisitions, salaries
increased 4% in the second quarter from the same period of last
year.  Profit-sharing increased to $16 million from $13 million
in last year's second quarter.  Other employee benefits --
primarily incentive compensation and health care expenses --
were equal to the $42 million recorded in the second quarter of
last year. 
     The effective tax rates for the second quarter and first six
months of 1994 was 37.4% in both periods compared with 39.5% and
38.1% for the same periods last year.  


CREDIT CARD OPERATIONS
- ----------------------

     Credit card receivables sold in the form of a security is a
technique for financing the Company's credit card operations.  It
replaces at competitive rates other sources of deposits and
borrowed money, and improves liquidity and capital.  For
accounting purposes, the technique removes the underlying assets
and liabilities from the balance sheet, and amounts otherwise
reported in the income statement are classified as noninterest
income.

<PAGE> 15.

     The Company securitized $1,350 million of credit card
receivables in 1991; $750 million were outstanding at June 30,
1994, and $550 million are scheduled to mature during the rest of
1994.  The impact of the securitization, assuming the funds
received from the securitization were used to replace short-term
borrowings, is summarized below:
