Bankers Trust New York Corporation (the "Corporation") filed
today a Registration Statement on Form S-3 to register three
million shares of its Common Stock. The Registration Statement
covers the shares of Common Stock which will be issued in
connection with the merger of Wolfensohn & Co., Inc. ("Wolfensohn")
with and into BT Securities Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary
of the Corporation. The terms of the merger agreement call for the
Corporation to issue 2,881,476 shares of Common Stock and pay $7
million for the stock of Wolfensohn representing its net assets and
business. The number of shares to be issued was based on a formula
price of $70.45 per share as defined in the merger agreement.
At its regularly scheduled meeting in July, the Board of
Directors of the Corporation approved the repurchase of up to three
million shares of the Corporation's Common Stock over the next

announced in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
