             1998 Return on Average Common Equity of 24.25%
                               All Records


NEW  YORK, N.Y., January 19, 1999 -- The Bank of New York Company,  Inc.

(NYSE:  BK) reports record fourth quarter diluted earnings per share  of

40  cents, up 8% from the 37 cents earned in the fourth quarter of 1997.

Net  income for the fourth quarter was a record $313 million, up 5% from

the  $298  million earned in the same period in 1997.  Results  in  1997

included a $177 million pre-tax gain on the sale of the Company's credit

card operations as well as a $100 million provision for credit losses.

      Diluted  earnings per share were a record $1.53 for  the  year  of

1998,  up 13% from the $1.36 earned a year ago. Net income for the  year

was  a  record  $1,192 million, an increase of 8% over the prior  year's

$1,104  million.  For the year, return on average common  equity  was  a

record 24.25% compared with 22.13% in 1997.

<PAGE> 2

      Securities servicing fee revenues grew by 27% reaching $1  billion

for  the  year  which,  when  combined with  15%  growth  in  trust  and

investment fees, pushed noninterest income to 58% of revenues,  up  from

54%  a  year  ago.  Principal  drivers  for  securities  servicing  were

continued strong growth in securities transaction volumes, augmented  by

record new business wins and the introduction of new products. Trust and

investment's  continued  growth was the  result  of  new  business  flow

spurred  by  strong investment performance. Favorable  foreign  exchange

results  reflect  our expanding global securities servicing  businesses.

Additional highlights were continued strength in asset quality  and  the

maintenance  of  one of the best efficiency ratios in  the  industry  at

50.5%.

     In  securities servicing, revenue growth was led by ADRs,  domestic

and  global  custody,  securities  lending,  corporate  trust,  UIT  and

execution  services. The Company's ADR business benefitted  from  record

depositary  receipt trading volume on US exchanges  which  grew  27%  in

1998.  In  addition, the Company was named as agent on 200 new  programs

from  54  countries,  or  80%  of all new sponsored  depositary  receipt

programs in 1998. Domestic and global custody continued to gain momentum

from  significant  new business wins in the mutual funds  and  insurance

industries.

      Net  interest income on a taxable equivalent basis  for  1998  was

$1,709  million  compared with $1,890 million  in  1997  reflecting  the

impact of the sale of the Company's credit card business in 1997.

     Revenues from the Company's securities servicing businesses reached

$1  billion  in 1998, up from $790 million for the year of 1997.  Strong

internal  growth of 16% was spread over all of the Company's  securities

servicing businesses with acquisitions contributing the remainder.

<PAGE> 3

      For  the year, overall cash processing fees grew by 7% from a year

ago, reaching $256 million. Market share gains in both the international

and  domestic funds transfer business led to a 13% increase in revenues.

Trade  finance  revenues were flat as improving margins were  offset  by

reduced  levels  of  global trade activity and a decline  in  letter  of

credit  volume.  Fees from cash management services  grew  7%  over  the

previous year.

      Trust  and  investment fees were $208 million  for  the  year,  an

increase of 15% over last year as a result of focused and aggressive new

business  efforts.  Keeping pace with the substantial  increase  in  the

Company's  processing  businesses, foreign exchange  and  other  trading

revenues  grew to $170 million for 1998 compared with $125 million  last

year reflecting the customer driven nature of this business.

      Return  on average assets was 1.86% for both the fourth and  third

quarters  of  1998 and 1.95% in the fourth quarter of  1997.  Return  on

average  assets  was  1.89% for the year compared with  1.86%  in  1997.

Tangible diluted earnings per share (earnings before the amortization of

goodwill  and  intangibles) were $1.62 per share in 1998,  up  12%  from

$1.45  per share in 1997. On the same basis, tangible return on  average

common  equity  was  37.13% in 1998 compared with 31.78%  in  1997;  and

tangible return on average assets was 2.06% in 1998 compared with  2.04%

in 1997.

      Average  diluted  shares  outstanding were  782  million  for  the

quarter, up from 779 million in the third quarter of 1998 reflecting the

exercise  of  the Company's warrants, and down from 795 million  in  the

fourth  quarter  of  1997  as a result of the  Company's  stock  buyback

programs.  In  December 1998, the Company completed its 30 million  1998

<PAGE> 4

share  buyback program.  The Company announced in December its  plan  to

buy back up to 18 million of its common shares through the end of 1999.

      The  Company's  estimated Tier 1 capital and Total capital  ratios

remained  strong at 7.88% and 11.90% at December 31, 1998 compared  with

7.52% and 11.64% at September 30, 1998, and 7.92% and 11.97% at December

31,  1997. Tangible common equity as a percent of total assets was 6.28%

at December 31, 1998 compared with 5.59% at September 30, 1998 and 6.47%

one year ago. The leverage ratio was 7.46% at December 31, 1998 compared

with 7.24% at September 30, 1998 and 7.59% one year ago.

quarter of 1998 and $409 million in the fourth quarter of 1997. The  net

interest  rate spread was 2.22% in the fourth quarter of 1998,  up  from

     For  the  year of 1998, net interest income on a taxable equivalent

basis, amounted to $1,709 million compared with $1,890 million in  1997.

1997,  while the net yield on interest-earning assets was 3.24% in  1998

and 3.89% in 1997.

     The  decrease in net interest income, net interest rate spread, and

yield  from 1997 reflect the impact of the sale of the Company's  credit

card operations.

      Securities  servicing fees increased 29% to $274 million  compared

with  $213 million in the fourth quarter of 1997. Strong internal growth

across  all  areas  reached  16%,  with  remaining  growth  coming  from

acquisitions.  Fourth quarter service charges and fees  of  $79  million

were  up  from $74 million in the fourth quarter of 1997 reflecting  the

U.K.  asset based lending acquisitions, but were off slightly  from  $81

million  in the third quarter due to a decline in syndication  activity.

Increased  customer  flows resulting from increased  volatility  in  the

<PAGE> 6

markets  led  to  revenues  from  foreign  exchange  and  other  trading

activities  of  $51  million  in the fourth quarter  compared  with  $30

million  in  the  third quarter of 1998 and $39 million  in  the  fourth

quarter of 1997. The Company reported $50 million of securities gains in

the  fourth quarter as compared to $51 million in the third quarter  and

$45 million a year ago.



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


      Total noninterest expense for the quarter was $507 million, up  5%

from  $491  million  in  the  same  period  last  year.  For  the  year,

noninterest expense was $1,928 million compared with $1,874  million  in

1997, a 3% increase. Noninterest expense for the fourth quarter included

$8  million, approximately 1 cent per share, related to making  computer

systems  Year  2000 compliant. For the year of 1998, Year 2000  expenses

were $33 million or approximately 3 cents per share.

      The efficiency ratio for the fourth quarter of 1998 was 50.8%. For

the  year  of 1998, the efficiency ratio was 50.5% compared  with  50.2%

last  year. The upward move from a year ago in the efficiency  ratio  is

primarily  attributable  to  the  sale  of  the  Company's  credit  card

operations and Year 2000 systems expenses.

      The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter and year of 1998 was

34.7% and 35.2% compared with 36.3% and 36.4% last year.
