^(a)

First quarter 2004 results include the gain from the sale of approximately 35% of the Corporation’s indirect investment in Shinsei Bank and the charge associated with a writedown of small non-strategic businesses that the Corporation intends to exit. The combination of these items, which totaled $74 million pre-tax, added $.12 per share to the first quarter 2004 results. Excluding these items, return on equity and return on assets on a continuing operations basis would have been 20.7% and 2.35%, respectively, and the pre-tax operating margin would have been 27%. The Corporation believes that this supplemental information is useful in analyzing the financial results and trends of ongoing operations, facilitates the comparisons with other financial institutions and is the basis on which the Corporation’s management internally evaluates performance.

^(b)

See page 10 for a discussion of the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle.

^(c)

Returns presented in the table for the first three months of 2003 are before the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. Return on equity on a net income basis was 26.1%, 20.3% and 19.2% for the first quarter 2004, fourth quarter 2003, and first quarter 2003, respectively. Return on assets on a net income basis was 2.96%, 2.24% and 1.85% for the first quarter 2004, fourth quarter 2003, and first quarter 2003, respectively. For the first quarter of 2003, the return on assets, on a continuing operations basis, was calculated excluding both the results and assets of the fixed income trading business even though the prior period balance sheet was not restated for discontinued operations.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 — Basis of presentation and informational disclosures

Basis of presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Corporation are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Corporation’s 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods have been included.

Stock options

The Corporation maintains several stock-based employee compensation plans, which are described in Note 24 in the Corporation’s 2003 Financial Annual Report. Prior to 2003, the Corporation accounted for those plans under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related Interpretations. Effective Jan. 1, 2003, the Corporation adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” prospectively for all employee awards granted, modified, or settled after Jan. 1, 2003. During the first quarter of 2004, options totaling 545,713 shares were granted with a weighted-average fair value of $7.93 per share. Stock option expense was determined by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and totaled $3 million after-tax in the first quarter of 2004, less than $1 million in the first quarter of 2003 and less than $1 million in the fourth quarter of 2003.

Pro forma cost of stock options

As required to be disclosed by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of SFAS No. 123,” the following table illustrates the pro forma effect on income and earnings per share if the fair value based method had been applied to all awards in each period. Awards under the Corporation’s plans generally vest over periods of three or more years. Therefore, the cost related to stock-based employee compensation included in the determination of net income for 2004 is less than that which would have been recognized if the fair value based method had been applied to all awards granted in prior periods.

Diluted - pro forma	$	.56		$	.41		$	.36

(a)

Income as reported, before the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle recorded in the first quarter of 2003.

(b)

Reported and pro forma results include compensation expense for restricted stock awards, net of tax, of $5 million, $4 million and $4 million for the first quarter of 2004, fourth quarter of 2003, and first quarter of 2003, respectively.

The Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the use of subjective assumptions which can materially affect fair value estimates. Therefore, this model does not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of the Corporation’s stock options. The fair value of each stock option was estimated on the date of the grant using the following weighted-average assumptions for 2004 and 2003, respectively: (1) expected dividend yields of 1.9% and 2.1%; (2) risk-free interest rates of 3.3% and 3.4%; (3) expected volatility of 26% and 27%; and (4) expected lives of options of 5.5 years for both years.

Cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle

On Jan. 1, 2003, the Corporation adopted SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations.” SFAS No. 143 requires an entity to record a liability for an obligation associated with the retirement of an asset and for certain lease transaction obligations at the time the liability is incurred by capitalizing the cost and depreciating it over the remaining useful life of that asset. The initial application of SFAS No. 143 was reported as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in the income statement. The Corporation recognized a one-time after-tax charge of $7 million, or $.01 per share (pre-tax cost of $11 million), in the first quarter of 2003, for the establishment of a liability for obligations to restore leased facilities, principally outside the U.S., to their original condition at the end of the leases. The annual ongoing impact of this accounting standard, based on leases presently in effect, is an increase in occupancy expense of approximately $2 million pre-tax. The pro forma effect on prior periods of the adoption of this statement would not have been material to either the income statement or balance sheet.

Guarantees

At March 31, 2004, the Corporation had a liability of $7 million related to standby letters of credit issued or modified since Dec. 31, 2002. For details of guarantees, see “Other guarantees and indemnities” in the table on page 51, and the paragraphs under the subheading “Other guarantees and indemnities” on pages 51 and

In December 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 132 (revised 2003), “Employers’ Disclosures about Pensions and other Postretirement Benefits, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88 and 106.” SFAS 132 (revised 2003) requires interim period disclosures of the components of net periodic benefit cost (credit).

Note 2 — FIN 46 Revised

In December 2003 the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, (revised December 2003) “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (FIN 46 Revised). This Interpretation addresses consolidation by business enterprises of VIEs. A VIE is a corporation, limited liability company, partnership, trust or other legal structure that is used to conduct activities or hold assets that, by design, cannot support its financial activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties or whose equity investors, if any, do not have: (1) the ability to make decisions about its activities through voting or similar rights; (2) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity or; (3) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity. An entity is also considered a VIE if its equity investors have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interests and the activities of the entity are conducted on behalf of an equity investor with a disproportionately small voting interest. FIN 46 Revised requires a VIE to be consolidated by its primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the party that holds variable interests that expose it to a majority of the entity’s expected losses and/or residual returns.

Three Rivers Funding Corporation (TRFC)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Note 2 — FIN 46 Revised (continued)

statements of the Bank or the Corporation. TRFC was formed in 1990 and can issue up to $5 billion of commercial paper to make loans secured by, and to purchase, pools of receivables. The Bank operates as a referral agent and refers transactions to TRFC. The Bank provides all administrative services for TRFC. TRFC sold subordinated notes to an unrelated third party in 2003 and as a result of that sale the Corporation is not the primary beneficiary.

Every transaction in TRFC is structured to provide substantial loss protection and to minimize credit risk. Transactions are overcollateralized with customer receivables and structured to the equivalent of an investment grade credit rating before consideration of any liquidity or credit support by the Bank. By agreement, liquidity support is provided by the Bank up to the full amount of commercial paper outstanding. Such liquidity is provided through transaction specific funding agreements for individual sales of receivables from third parties. The Bank is obligated to provide liquidity support if collections on receivable pools are not sufficient to cover associated commercial paper that has matured and the receivables related to maturing commercial paper or proceeds from the issuance of commercial paper are insufficient to pay maturing commercial paper related to a specific third party seller (not the Bank). An obligation to make purchases under the funding agreements continues as long as TRFC is not bankrupt and the amount of the purchase does not exceed the available liquidity commitment. Liquidity support is also provided in the event of noncredit related operational reasons, or if there were to be a systemic issue with the commercial paper market that would prevent the rollover of commercial paper. Finally, the Bank has also provided a letter of credit for TRFC in support of the commercial paper issued. The maximum exposure for the letter of credit is the lesser of $400 million or 8% of the outstanding commercial paper. A drawing under the letter of credit would occur only after the first loss credit enhancement, provided by a third party seller (not the Bank), built into each transaction is completely exhausted and there are not sufficient funds available from the liquidity providers to repay maturing commercial paper. The facilities that provide liquidity and credit support to TRFC are included in the Off-balance-sheet financial instruments with contract amounts that represent credit risk table on page 51. The estimated liability for losses related to these arrangements, if any, is included in the reserve for unfunded commitments.

At March 31, 2004, TRFC’s receivables and commercial paper outstanding each totaled approximately $740 million compared with approximately $800 million at Dec. 31, 2003. A letter of credit provided by the Bank in support of TRFC’s commercial paper totaled $60 million at March 31, 2004 compared with $67 million at Dec. 31, 2003. The Corporation’s maximum loss exposure related to TRFC is the full amount of the liquidity facility, or approximately $740 million, at March 31, 2004. However, the probability of this loss scenario is remote as it would mean that all of TRFC’s receivables were wholly uncollectible.

Note 3 — Contingent and deferred consideration related to acquisitions

There were no acquisitions completed during the first quarter of 2004. Additional consideration of $3 million was paid during the first quarter including approximately $2 million paid with the Corporation’s common stock. The Corporation records contingent purchase payments when amounts are resolved and become issuable. At March 31, 2004, the Corporation was potentially obligated to pay contingent additional consideration of a minimum expected amount of approximately $20 million to a maximum expected amount of approximately $65 million for all acquisitions, over the next four years, depending on the performance of the acquired companies. None of the contingent additional consideration was recorded as goodwill at March 31, 2004. In addition, the Corporation is obligated to pay deferred consideration in equal annual installments of $12.5 million for a total of $50 million, for the Standish Mellon acquisition, the first of which was paid in the third quarter of 2003, leaving a remaining obligation of $37.5 million. The $47 million net present value of this obligation was recorded as additional goodwill in the fourth quarter of 2002.

The Corporation owns 70% of Mellon Brascan Asset Management S.A., a Brazilian institutional asset management and asset servicing company. The minority interest owners have exercised a “put” right which obligates a subsidiary of the Corporation to purchase the remaining 30% of the company. The purchase price, as defined, is based on the levels of assets under management and under administration, among other things. The Corporation and the minority interest owners currently disagree on the methodology of how to compute the purchase price and are in the process of submitting the dispute to binding arbitration. The Corporation offered $4 million for the remaining 30% of the company and the minority interest owners made an initial request of $42 million.

Note 4 — Discontinued operations

In the fourth quarter of 2003, the Corporation adopted discontinued operations accounting for the fixed income trading business of Mellon Investor Services, which was sold to Bonds Direct Securities LLC, a majority owned subsidiary of Jefferies Group, Inc., in December 2003. As part of the Corporation’s streamlining of the organizational structure of the HR&IS sector, it was decided that this business was no longer consistent with the sector’s strategic objectives. Securities and other assets not purchased by Bonds Direct Securities totaled $187 million at Dec. 31, 2003 and were all sold by March 31, 2004 at a pre-tax loss of less than $1 million.

In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, reflected as discontinued operations in all income statements presented are the final results of the fixed income trading business as well as residual activity from the lines of business servicing retail consumer and small business/middle market customers that were exited in 2001 and 2002. All information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflects continuing operations, before the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle recorded in the first quarter of 2003, unless otherwise noted. Because the lines of business included in discontinued operations were discrete lines of business serving classes of customers no longer served by the Corporation’s continuing lines of business, the disposition of these businesses has no material impact on continuing operations going forward.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Note 4 — Discontinued operations (continued)

After-tax gains of $1 million were recorded in the first quarter of 2004, fourth quarter of 2003 and the first quarter of 2003, primarily resulting from the favorable resolution of estimates made at the time of disposition of the discontinued businesses other than the fixed income trading business discussed above.

At March 31, 2004 and Dec. 31, 2003, there were no issuers, other than the U.S. Government and its agencies, where the aggregate book value of securities exceeded 10% of shareholders’ equity.

Intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives. During the first quarter of 2004, the gross carrying amount of intangible assets subject to amortization increased by $1 million due to the effect of foreign exchange rates. Amortization expense totaled $5 million in the first quarter of 2004, fourth quarter of 2003, and the first quarter of 2003. Based upon the current level of intangible assets, the annual amortization expense for the years 2004 through 2009 is expected to be approximately $18 million, $14 million, $14 million, $13 million, $11 million and $8 million, respectively. The after-tax impact of the annual amortization expense for the years 2004 through 2009 is expected to be approximately $15 million, $12 million, $12 million, $11 million, $9 million and $7 million, respectively.

Summary of financial results

Overview

For an overview of the Corporation’s businesses, products, strategy, long-term financial goals and factors that could influence the achievement of those goals, see pages 3 and 4 of the Corporation’s 2003 Financial Annual Report.

First quarter of 2004 compared with the first quarter of 2003 and the fourth quarter of 2003

Consolidated net income in the first quarter of 2004 totaled $245 million, or $.57 per share. This compares with $161 million, or $.37 per share, in the first quarter of 2003 and $184 million, or $.43 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2003.

First quarter 2004 income from continuing operations totaled $244 million, or $.57 per share. This compares with income from continuing operations of $166 million, or $.38 per share, before the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle, in the first quarter of 2003 and $185 million, or $.43 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2003. Continuing operations returned 26.0% on equity in the first quarter of 2004 compared with 19.7% in the first quarter of 2003, and 20.4% in the fourth quarter of 2003.

The results from the first quarter of 2004 included a pre-tax gain of $93 million from the sale of approximately 35% of the Corporation’s indirect investment in Tokyo-based Shinsei Bank, as a result of its initial public offering, as discussed further on page 28. Partially offsetting the gain was a pre-tax charge of $19 million associated with a writedown of small non-strategic businesses that the Corporation intends to exit. Based on the current quarter’s effective tax rate of 32.5%, these items added approximately $.12 to the Corporation’s earnings per share in the first quarter of 2004. The results for the first quarter of 2003 include the $7 million, or $.01 per share, cumulative effect of accounting change, as discussed further on page 10.

In April 2004, the Corporation increased its quarterly common stock dividend by 13% to $.18 per common share. Over the past twelve months, the Corporation has increased its quarterly common stock dividend by 38%.

Discontinued operations - first quarter 2004, first quarter 2003 and fourth quarter 2003

All information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is reported on a continuing operations basis, before the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle recorded in the first quarter of 2003, unless otherwise noted. See Note 4 of the Notes to Financial Statements for a discussion of discontinued operations.

Currency rate fluctuations, FTE presentation and unrounded numbers

The Corporation’s financial results, as well as its levels of assets under management, administration and custody, are impacted by the translation of financial results denominated in non-U.S. currencies to the U.S. dollar. The Corporation is primarily impacted by activities denominated in the British Pound, and to a lesser extent the Canadian dollar and the Euro. As the U.S dollar depreciates versus these currencies, the translation impact is a higher level of net interest revenue, fee revenue, operating expense and assets managed, administered and under custody. Conversely, as the U.S. dollar appreciates, the translated levels of

Summary of financial results (continued)

net interest revenue, fee revenue, operating expense and assets managed, administered and under custody will be lower. At March 31, 2004 the U.S. dollar depreciated versus the currencies noted above when compared to March 31, 2003. The U.S. dollar depreciated versus the British Pound and appreciated versus the Canadian dollar and the Euro when compared to Dec. 31, 2003. Throughout this report the translation impact of foreign currencies will be referred to as “the effect of foreign exchange rates.”

Certain amounts are presented on a fully taxable equivalent (FTE) basis. The Corporation believes that this presentation provides comparability of amounts arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources and is consistent with industry standards. The adjustment to an FTE basis has no impact on net income. Throughout this report, all calculations are based on unrounded numbers.

^(a)

Excluding the gain on the sale of approximately 35% of the Corporation’s indirect investment in Shinsei Bank, fee revenue as a percentage of fee and net interest revenue (FTE) would have totaled 89%.

Note: For analytical purposes, the term “fee revenue,” as utilized throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, is defined as total noninterest revenue (including equity investment revenue) less gains on the sales of securities.

Noninterest revenue (continued)

Fee revenue

Fee revenue of $1.071 billion in the first quarter of 2004 increased $233 million, or 28%, from $838 million in the first quarter of 2003. Fee revenue in the first quarter of 2004 included a pre-tax gain of $93 million from the sale of approximately 35% of the Corporation’s indirect investment in Shinsei Bank. The gain is included in equity investment revenue in the table above and discussed further on page 28. Excluding this gain, fee revenue increased 17% compared with the prior year period, primarily due to increases in trust and investment fee revenue, foreign exchange revenue and the effect of foreign exchange rates. The effect of foreign exchange rates accounted for $13 million of the increase in fee revenue in the first quarter of 2004 compared with the first quarter of 2003, and is primarily reflected in trust and investment fee revenue. Trust and investment fee revenue increased $107 million, or 16%, primarily due to improved equity markets, higher performance fees and higher institutional trust and custody revenue.

Fee revenue increased $90 million, or 9% (unannualized), in the first quarter of 2004 from $981 million in the fourth quarter of 2003. Excluding the Shinsei gain previously discussed, fee revenue decreased $3 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2003 primarily resulting from a $17 million decrease in performance fees (included in investment management revenue in the table on the previous page) and a $9 million decrease in merchant card fee revenue (included in other revenue in the table on the previous page), partially offset by higher foreign exchange revenue, higher investment management fee revenue (excluding performance fees) and the effect of foreign exchange rates. The effect of foreign exchange rates accounted for $5 million of the increase in fee revenue in the first quarter of 2004 compared with the fourth quarter of 2003, and primarily is reflected in trust and investment fee revenue.

Net of mutual fund fees waived and fund expense reimbursements of $10 million in each quarter presented in the table above.

Investment management fee revenue is dependent on the overall level and mix of assets under management and the management fees charged for managing those assets. The Corporation estimates that a sustained (one-year) 100-point change in the Standard & Poor’s (S&P) 500 Index, when applied to the Corporation’s mix of assets under management, would result in a change of approximately $40 million to $50 million annually in investment management fees, excluding performance fees. For any given quarterly reporting period, the actual impact may vary from what might be estimated using that sensitivity, since Institutional Asset Management records investment management revenue based on quarter-end asset under management levels, Mutual Funds based on daily asset under management levels and Private Wealth Management based on prior months’ asset under management levels. The actual impact will also vary with changes in asset mix, the timing of flows, the relationship of other benchmarks used versus the S&P 500 Index and other factors. It should also be noted that there is a corresponding change in incentive expense with a change in investment management fees. The relevant changes in the S&P 500 Index for the first quarter of 2004 compared with prior quarters are as follows.

Daily average	1133	1056	861	77	7.2	%	272	31.6	%

Investment management revenue in the first quarter of 2004 increased $87 million, or 28%, compared with the first quarter of 2003 and decreased $8 million, or 2% (unannualized), compared with the fourth quarter of 2003. The increase compared with the first quarter of 2003 resulted from a $39 million increase in performance fees, improved equity markets, net inflows and the effect of foreign exchange rates. The decrease compared with the fourth quarter of 2003 resulted from a $17 million decrease in performance fees partially offset by an increase in institutional and private client revenue in the Institutional Asset Management sector reflecting improved equity markets, net inflows and the effect of foreign exchange rates. Performance fees are earned by investment managers when the investment performance of their products exceeds various benchmarks. Performance fees totaled $39 million in the first quarter of 2004 compared with less than $1 million in the first quarter of 2003 and $56 million in the fourth quarter of 2003, and are included in institutional investment management fees.

The largest category of investment management fees are from mutual funds. Managed mutual fund fees totaled $178 million in the first quarter of 2004, an increase of $10 million, or 6%, compared with the first

quarter of 2003 and an increase of $2 million, or 2%, compared with the fourth quarter of 2003, as the positive effect of improved equity markets on equity mutual funds more than offset the effect of a lower average level of managed money market funds. Mutual fund management fees are based upon the daily average net assets of each fund. The average net assets of proprietary mutual funds managed decreased $12 billion in the first quarter of 2004 compared with the first quarter of 2003 and decreased $1 billion compared with the fourth quarter of 2003. The decreases resulted from outflows of institutional money market funds partially offset by equity market appreciation and net equity inflows.

In the first quarter of 2004, total proprietary managed mutual funds generated 40 basis points, on an annualized basis, compared with 36 basis points in the first quarter of 2003 and 38 basis points in the fourth quarter of 2003. For the first quarter of 2004, the first quarter of 2003 and the fourth quarter of 2003, the Corporation generated, on an annualized basis, 62, 60 and 61 basis points of investment management fees on average equity mutual funds; 24, 25 and 24 basis points on average proprietary money market funds; and 56, 55 and 54 basis points on average proprietary bond and fixed income funds, respectively.

As shown in the following table, the market value of assets under management was $679 billion at March 31, 2004, a $22 billion, or 3% (unannualized), increase from $657 billion at Dec. 31, 2003, and a $113 billion, or 20%, increase from $566 billion at March 31, 2003. The $679 billion of assets managed were comprised as follows: 36% equities; 24% money market; 20% fixed income; 11% securities lending cash collateral; and 9% overlay and global fixed-income products.

Human resources & investor solutions (HR&IS) fee revenue

HR&IS fee revenue generated from consulting, outsourcing and investor services totaled $233 million in the first quarter of 2004, a decrease of $7 million, or 3%, from the first quarter of 2003, and an increase of $3 million, or 1% (unannualized), from the fourth quarter of 2003. The decrease compared with the first quarter of 2003 primarily resulted from lower outsourcing and consulting revenue. The increase compared with the fourth quarter of 2003 primarily resulted from higher consulting and investor services revenue. See the discussion on page 43 of the businesses in this sector and the factors that drive the performance of those businesses.

Institutional trust and custody revenue

Institutional trust and custody fees are dependent on a number of factors including the level of assets administered and under custody, the volume of transactions in the accounts, and the types and frequency of ancillary services provided, such as performance analytics. It also includes professional and license fees for software products offered by Eagle Investment Systems which are dependent on discretionary spending decisions by investment managers. Institutional trust and custody revenue increased $24 million, or 21%, in the first quarter of 2004 compared with the first quarter of 2003 and increased $1 million, or 1% (unannualized), compared to the fourth quarter of 2003. The increases were primarily due to higher assets under custody due to the impact of net new business, equity market appreciation and the effect of foreign exchange rates.

As shown in the following table, assets under administration or custody totaled $2.944 trillion at March 31, 2004, an increase of $99 billion, or 3% (unannualized), compared with $2.845 trillion at Dec. 31, 2003 and an increase of $644 billion, or 28%, compared with $2.300 trillion at March 31, 2003. The increases compared with the prior periods resulted from net new business, market appreciation and the effect of foreign exchange rates.

Noninterest revenue (continued)

Securities lending revenue

Securities lending revenue totaled $18 million in the first quarter of 2004 compared with $15 million in the first quarter of 2003 and $16 million in the fourth quarter of 2003. Revenue in the first quarter of 2004 was impacted by increased volumes and management fees in 2004, partially offset by lower spreads. The average level of securities on loan totaled $83 billion in the first quarter of 2004 compared with $55 billion in the first quarter of 2003 and $73 billion in the fourth quarter of 2003.

Cash management revenue

Cash management fee revenue of $78 million in the first quarter of 2004 increased $6 million compared with the first quarter of 2003 and decreased $5 million compared with the fourth quarter of 2003. The increase compared with the first quarter 2003 resulted from a change in the manner in which the Corporation was paid for certain cash management and merchant card services by the Department of the Treasury, a major cash management customer, beginning in mid-July 2003. This revenue, which totaled $9 million in the first quarter of 2004, previously would have been recorded as net interest revenue, because it was paid via compensating balance earnings. The decrease in cash management fee revenue, excluding the impact of this classification change, compared to the first quarter of 2003 was primarily due to lower volumes.

Foreign exchange revenue

Foreign exchange revenue totaled $57 million in the first quarter of 2004, a $19 million, or 48%, increase compared with the first quarter of 2003 and an $18 million, or 46% (unannualized), increase compared with the fourth quarter of 2003, primarily due to higher market volatility and related increases in foreign exchange transactions with clients.

Other trading revenue

Other trading revenue, which includes securities trading revenue and the fair market value adjustments of credit default swaps, totaled $7 million in the first quarter of 2004, a $5 million increase compared with both the first quarter of 2003 and fourth quarter of 2003. The first quarter of 2004 included a gain of less than $1 million, while the first quarter of 2003 included a loss of less than $1 million and the fourth quarter of 2003 included a loss of $5 million resulting from the fair market value adjustments of credit default swaps. These instruments act as an economic hedge of credit risk on certain large corporate loans and unfunded commitments.

Financing-related revenue

Financing-related revenue, which primarily includes loan commitment fees; letters of credit and acceptance fees; gains or losses on securitizations, loan sales and lease residuals; and returns from corporate-owned life insurance, totaled $35 million in the first quarter of 2004, an increase of $3 million compared with the first quarter of 2003 and a decrease of $6 million compared with the fourth quarter of 2003. The decrease compared with the fourth quarter of 2003 primarily reflects lower gains on lease residuals.

Equity investment revenue

Equity investment revenue includes realized and unrealized gains and losses on venture capital and non-venture capital investments. Revenue from non-venture capital investments includes equity income from

Noninterest revenue (continued)

certain investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting and gains (losses) from other equity investments. The following table shows the components of equity investment revenue.

Equity income and gains on the sale of other equity investments in the first quarter of 2004 of $97 million includes the $93 million gain on the sale of a portion of the Shinsei Bank non-venture capital indirect investment. The Corporation is a partner in two partnerships that hold an indirect investment in Tokyo-based Shinsei Bank, Limited, which conducted an initial public offering on Feb. 19, 2004. Approximately 35% of the common stock held by the two partnerships was disposed of during the first quarter of 2004 resulting in a gain of $93 million for the Corporation. The Corporation’s remaining book value of this investment is $52 million.

Excluding the Shinsei gain, equity investment revenue totaled $5 million in the first quarter of 2004, compared with $3 million in the first quarter of 2003 and $6 million in the fourth quarter of 2003. Net gains from venture capital activities totaled $1 million in the first quarter of 2004, a net gain of $1 million in the first quarter of 2003 and a net gain of $3 million in the fourth quarter of 2003. Equity income from certain other non-venture capital investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting, and gains from other equity investments totaled a gain of $4 million in the first quarter of 2004 compared with a gain of $2 million in the first quarter of 2003 and a gain of $3 million in the fourth quarter of 2003.

See pages 61 and 62 of the Corporation’s 2003 Financial Annual Report for a description of the rating categories and for a further discussion of the factors used in the valuation process of the venture capital investments. At both March 31, 2004 and Dec. 31, 2003, approximately 60% of the direct investment portfolio was rated as “superior” or “meets expectations,” the two best ratings. However, changing economic conditions and broader equity markets could result in valuation changes in the future. See the table on page 47 of this report for the first quarter 2004 and life-to-date activity of the Corporation’s venture capital investment portfolio.

Other revenue

Other revenue totaled $7 million in the first quarter of 2004, compared with $9 million in the first quarter of 2003 and $19 million in the fourth quarter of 2003. Other revenue includes revenue from merchant card services that was reclassified from cash management services in the fourth quarter of 2003. Merchant card revenue totaled $7 million, $3 million, and $16 million in the first quarter of 2004, first quarter of 2003 and fourth quarter of 2003, respectively. The decrease in merchant card revenue compared with the fourth quarter of 2003 primarily resulted from the decision by the Bureau of Public Debt to discontinue allowing U.S. Savings Bonds to be purchased with credit/debit cards via the Internet, which resulted in no fee revenue being generated from this program in the first quarter of 2004 compared with $8 million of fee revenue in

Noninterest revenue (continued)

the fourth quarter of 2003. Other revenue in the first quarter of 2003 was not materially impacted by the U.S. Savings Bonds merchant card program, as net interest revenue was recorded prior to the mid-July 2003 change in the manner in which the Department of the Treasury pays for its services.

Gross joint venture fee revenue (supplemental information)

The Corporation accounts for its interests in joint ventures under the equity method of accounting, with its share of the equity income from all joint ventures of $9 million, $5 million and $9 million, in the first quarter of 2004, first quarter of 2003 and fourth quarter of 2003, respectively, recorded primarily as trust and investment fee revenue. The Corporation’s portions of gross joint venture fee revenue and expenses are not included in the Corporation’s reported fee revenue and operating expense. The following table presents, for informational purposes, the components of gross joint venture fee revenue and the trend of revenue growth for the Corporation’s 50% owned joint ventures that are part of the Asset Servicing sector.

Net interest revenue

Net interest revenue on a fully taxable equivalent basis totaled $118 million in the first quarter of 2004, a decrease of $40 million compared with $158 million in the first quarter of 2003 and a decrease of $6 million compared with $124 million in the fourth quarter of 2003. The net interest margin was 2.17% in the first quarter of 2004, down 58 basis points compared with 2.75% in the first quarter of 2003 and down 13 basis points compared with 2.30% in the fourth quarter of 2003. The decrease in net interest revenue compared with the first quarter of 2003 resulted in part from the mid-July 2003 change in the manner in which the Department of the Treasury is paying for certain cash management and merchant card services, as well as a lower level of interest-earning assets resulting from the sales and prepayment of higher coupon mortgage-backed securities and the continued reduction in large corporate loans. The revenue from the Department of the Treasury, which totaled $13 million in the first quarter of 2004, was recorded as cash management fee revenue ($9 million) and other revenue ($4 million). Excluding the revenue earned from the Department of the Treasury, net interest revenue would have been $139 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2003.

The decrease in net interest revenue compared with the fourth quarter of 2003 primarily resulted from the sales and prepayments in 2003 of higher coupon mortgage-backed securities as a result of the lower interest rate environment as well as the Corporation’s decision to re-invest in shorter duration or floating rate securities given expectations for higher interest rates later in 2004.

The Corporation has narrowed its strategic focus in recent years, which has resulted in a different mix of businesses and a smaller balance sheet. As a consequence, the Corporation has reduced, and will seek to continue to reduce, credit availability to the corporate and institutional marketplace. For the remainder of 2004, quarterly net interest income is expected to be relatively stable from the first quarter of 2004 level of $118 million, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, allowing for seasonal variations and tactical investment decisions.

^(a)

Effective Jan. 1, 2003, the Corporation began recording an expense for the estimated fair value of stock options using the prospective method under transitional guidance provided in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure.” Stock option expense totaled approximately $4 million in the first quarter of 2004, approximately $1 million in the fourth quarter of 2003 and less than $1 million in the first quarter of 2003. See Note 1 of Notes to Financial Statements for a further discussion of the impact of recording expense for stock options.

Staff expense - first quarter 2004 compared with first quarter 2003

Given the Corporation’s mix of fee based businesses, the largest category of operating expense is staff expense which comprised approximately 60% of total operating expense in the first quarter of 2004. The largest component of staff expense is compensation which includes base salary expense, which is primarily driven by headcount, the cost of temporaries and overtime and any severance expense incurred by the Corporation. Incentive expense represents additional compensation earned under a wide range of sales commission plans and incentive plans designed to reward a combination of individual, line of business and corporate performance versus goals, as well as the cost of stock options, which totaled $4 million in the first quarter of 2004. Employee benefits expense primarily includes the cost of the Corporation’s employee benefits plans for health and welfare benefits, payroll taxes and retirement benefits.

Staff expense in the first quarter of 2004 totaled $495 million, an increase of $46 million, or 10%, compared with the first quarter of 2003. This increase was due to a $41 million increase in incentive expense primarily resulting from a higher level of performance fees and fee-based business growth and a $4 million increase in stock option expense, a $15 million increase in employee benefits expense and the effect of foreign exchange rates partially offset by a $10 million reduction in compensation expense. Employee benefits expense included $3 million of pension expense in the first quarter of 2004 compared with a $7 million pension credit in the first quarter of 2003. Base compensation expense, which excludes the impact of severance expense, was $8 million lower compared with the first quarter of 2003 reflecting a reduction in headcount of approximately 1,700, the impact of which more than offset the $4 million of merit increases granted in the third quarter of 2003 and the effect of foreign exchange rates. Severance expense totaled $1 million in the first quarter of 2004 compared with $3 million in the first quarter of 2003. Severance expense of $54 million was recorded in 2003 for the planned reduction of approximately 2,100 positions.

Operating expense (continued)

The Corporation has utilized approximately $36 million of the severance accrual recorded, with the balance of the liability expected to be used by Dec. 31, 2004.

Other expenses - first quarter 2004 compared with first quarter 2003

Other expenses include certain expenses that vary with the levels of business activity, productivity initiatives undertaken, changes in business strategy, and changes in the mix of business, among other things. These expenses include professional, legal and other purchased services; business development (travel, entertainment and advertising); communications expense (telecommunications, postage and delivery); and other expenses (government assessments, personnel related, forms and supplies, clerical errors, etc.). These expenses totaled $336 million in the first quarter of 2004, a $31 million, or 10%, increase compared with the first quarter of 2003. The first quarter of 2004 included a charge of $19 million, included in Other expense in the table above, associated with a writedown of small non-strategic businesses that the Corporation intends to exit. These businesses are part of the Corporation’s Other Activity sector and are no longer part of the Corporation’s Core Business sectors. Excluding these expenses, other expenses increased $12 million, or 4%, primarily due to higher professional, legal and other purchased services in support of business growth, partially offset by lower interchange expenses discussed below, and the effect of foreign exchange rates. The increase due to the effect of foreign exchange rates accounted for $12 million of the increase in total operating expense in the first quarter of 2004 compared with the first quarter of 2003, including $6 million in staff expense.

Staff expense - first quarter 2004 compared with fourth quarter 2003

Staff expense in the first quarter of 2004 decreased $7 million, or 1% (unannualized), compared with the fourth quarter of 2003, primarily due to: a $12 million decrease in incentive expense resulting from a lower level of performance fees partially offset by a $3 million increase in stock option expense; an $11 million reduction in compensation expense primarily resulting from lower severance expense, partially offset by a $16 million increase in employee benefits expense and the effect of foreign exchange rates. Base compensation expense decreased $1 million in the first quarter of 2004 compared with the fourth quarter of 2003. Severance expense totaled $1 million in the first quarter of 2004 compared with $11 million in the fourth quarter of 2003. Employee benefits expense included $3 million of pension expense in the first quarter of 2004 compared with a $7 million pension credit in the fourth quarter of 2003.

Other expenses - first quarter 2004 compared with fourth quarter 2003

Other expenses in the first quarter of 2004 totaled $336 million, a decrease of $5 million compared with the fourth quarter of 2003. Excluding the $19 million charge, other expenses decreased 7% (unannualized) primarily due to lower professional, legal and other purchased services, lower equipment expense and lower travel and entertainment expense partially offset by the effect of foreign exchange rates. As discussed in Other revenue on pages 28 and 29, the termination of the U.S. Savings Bonds merchant card program is resulting in a reduction of interchange expenses in 2004, reported in professional, legal and other purchased services in the table above. There were no such expenses in the first quarter of 2004. These expenses totaled $8 million in the fourth quarter of 2003 and $6 million in the first quarter of 2003. The increase in total operating expenses due to foreign exchange rates was approximately $5 million compared with the fourth quarter of 2003, including $2 million in staff expense.

Operating expense (continued)

The Corporation expects to record an occupancy expense charge of approximately $20 to $25 million in the second quarter of 2004 for space planned to be vacated in the second quarter of 2004 related to the consolidation of nine leased locations to the new Mellon Financial Centre in London. This is the estimated total cost of vacating those locations.

Income taxes

The provision for income taxes from continuing operations totaled $117 million in the first quarter of 2004 compared with $79 million in the first quarter of 2003 and $85 million in the fourth quarter of 2003. The Corporation’s effective tax rate on income from continuing operations was approximately 32.5% for the first quarter of 2004, compared with approximately 31.5% for the full-year 2003. The effective tax rate was lower than the federal statutory rate of 35% in the first quarter of 2004 primarily due to tax exempt income and, to a lesser extent, the reversal of tax reserves upon completion of certain examinations related to previous years’ tax filings and joint ventures recorded on an equity basis net of tax. The effective tax rate was lower than the federal statutory rate for the full-year 2003 primarily due to tax exempt income and, to a lesser extent, the favorable resolution of certain state income tax issues and joint ventures recorded on an equity basis net of tax. It is currently anticipated that the effective rate will approximate 32.5% for the remainder of the year.

N/M — Not meaningful

The Corporation’s business sectors reflect its management structure, the characteristics of its products and services, and the classes of customers to which those products and services are delivered. The Corporation’s lines of business serve two distinct major classes of customers—corporations and institutions and high net worth individuals. Lines of business that offer similar or related products and services to common or similar customer decision makers have been aggregated into six core business sectors and divided into two overall reportable groups — Asset Management and Corporate & Institutional Services. In addition, Other Activity, as discussed further on pages 45 through 47, consists of all activities not aggregated in the Corporation’s core business sectors.

The results of the Corporation’s core business sectors are presented and analyzed on an internal management reporting basis. Revenue amounts reflect fee revenue generated directly by each sector, as well as fee revenue transferred between sectors under revenue transfer agreements, with net interest revenue generated directly by or allocated to the sector. There is no intercompany profit or loss on intersector activity. The accounting policies of the business sectors are the same as those described in Note 1 of the 2003 Financial Annual Report to Shareholders except: other fee revenue, net interest revenue and income taxes differ from the amounts shown in the Consolidated Income Statement because amounts presented in Business Sectors are on a fully taxable equivalent basis (FTE); and credit quality expense (revenue) for the core business sectors is presented on a net charge-off basis. Capital is allocated to the business sectors to reflect management’s assessment of credit risk, market risk and operating risk using internal risk models and, where

Business sectors (continued)

appropriate, regulatory guidelines generally consistent with the proposed Basel accord. The capital allocations may not be representative of the capital levels that would be required if these sectors were nonaffiliated business units. In the first quarter of 2004, the Corporation revised prospectively its capital allocations to the core business sectors to better reflect the economic capital required for these businesses.

The Business Sector information is reported on a continuing operations basis for all periods presented. See Note 4 of the Notes to Financial Statements for a discussion of discontinued operations. Effective January 2004, the Corporation reclassified the results of the small non-strategic businesses that the Corporation intends to exit to the Other Activity sector. The Corporation also revised prospectively expense allocations to the core business sectors to better reflect how these businesses are managed. The effect of these changes, taken together with the revised capital allocations noted above, were not material.

Following is a discussion of the Corporation’s six core business sectors and Other Activity. In the tables that follow, the income statement amounts are presented in millions and are on an FTE basis, the assets under management, administration or custody are period-end market values and are presented in billions, and the return on common equity is annualized. Where applicable, revenue and expense growth rates are reported excluding the impact of acquisitions, divestitures or the formation of joint ventures to improve period to period comparability. The operations of acquired businesses are integrated with the existing business sectors soon after most acquisitions are completed. As a result of the integration of staff support functions, management of customer relationships, operating processes and the financial impact of funding the acquisitions, the impact of the acquisitions on income before taxes cannot be accurately determined and therefore is not reported.

Includes $64 billion, $55 billion and $45 billion of securities lending assets advised by Institutional Asset Management at March 31, 2004, Dec. 31, 2003 and March 31, 2003, respectively. However, fees earned on these assets are shown as securities lending fees in the Asset Servicing sector.

Institutional Asset Management is comprised of Mellon Institutional Asset Management (MIAM), which consists of a number of asset management companies offering a broad range of equity, fixed income, hedge and liquidity management products; and Mellon Global Investments (MGI), which distributes investment management products internationally. MIAM offers its investors access to a wide spectrum of investment styles and asset classes, ranging from active growth equity strategies to emerging markets to fixed income and asset allocation solutions. Most of these strategies are available on a separate account and pooled fund basis. MIAM clients are predominately institutional investors (Corporations, Financial Institutions, Public Plan Sponsors, Foundations/Endowments, Insurance Companies, and Taft Hartley plans) although through its global distributor, MGI, funds are also sold to individuals via brokers. MIAM reaches its institutional investors through direct sales, consultant relationships and sub-advisory relationships. The results of the Institutional Asset Management sector are primarily driven by the period-end levels of assets managed as well as the mix of those assets, as shown in the tables on pages 22 and 23. Managed equity assets generate higher percentage fees than money market and bond assets. In addition, performance fees may be generated by the performance of the managed funds exceeding peer or equity market benchmarks. Expenses associated with this sector are predominately driven by staffing costs and incentives. Incentives are directly associated with the performance of the individual asset management companies and new business generation.

The $89 million, or 74%, increase in revenue in the first quarter of 2004 compared with the first quarter of 2003 primarily resulted from a $39 million increase in performance fees, as well as an increase in investment

Business sectors (continued)

management fees, which are based on the value of assets under management, and the effect of foreign exchange rates. As shown in the table on page 23, assets under management for this sector, before amounts subadvised for other sectors, increased $112 billion from March 31, 2003, resulting from $56 billion of net inflows and $63 billion of equity market appreciation. Operating expense increased $30 million, or 27%, compared with the first quarter of 2003, primarily due to higher incentive expense related in part to higher performance fees and trust fees, as well as the effect of foreign exchange rates. Income before taxes increased $59 million compared with the first quarter of 2003.

The $6 million, or 3%, decrease in revenue in the first quarter of 2004 compared with the fourth quarter of 2003 was due primarily to a $17 million decrease in performance fees, partially offset by an increase in investment management fees. As shown in the table on page 22, assets under management for this sector, before amounts subadvised for other sectors, increased $24 billion from Dec. 31, 2003, primarily resulting from $23 billion of net inflows and $7 billion of equity market appreciation. Operating expense decreased $15 million, or 9%, in the first quarter of 2004 compared with the fourth quarter of 2003, due primarily to lower incentive expense, as well as the positive impact of ongoing expense management initiatives. Income before taxes increased $9 million compared with the prior quarter.

Mutual Funds consists of all the activities associated with the Dreyfus/Founders complex of mutual funds. Products manufactured and distributed in this sector include mutual funds (equity, fixed income and money market), separately managed accounts and annuities. These products are sold through intermediaries (brokers, financial institutions and insurance companies) and directly to individuals. The results of the Mutual Fund sector are driven by average asset levels and the mix of assets managed. Generally, actively

Business sectors (continued)

managed equity funds generate higher fees than fixed income funds, index funds and money market funds. In addition, results are impacted by sales of fee-based products such as fixed and variable annuities. Expenses are impacted by sales of long-term funds and fee-based products, asset levels of money market funds and the cost of advertising and marketing new and existing products.

Revenue decreased $2 million, or 2%, compared with the first quarter of 2003 principally due to lower management fee revenue from a lower average level of institutional money market funds due to net outflows, partially offset by higher revenue from higher average equity asset levels and by higher revenue from separately managed accounts. Expenses were unchanged compared with the first quarter of 2003, resulting in a $2 million, or 6%, decrease in income before taxes. Assets under management for this sector, before amounts subadvised for other sectors, of $163 billion were down 3% from $169 billion at March 31, 2003, and down 1% from $165 billion at Dec. 31, 2003, primarily due to money market outflows partially offset by equity market appreciation.

Revenue decreased $4 million, or 3%, in the first quarter of 2004 compared with the fourth quarter of 2003, while expenses decreased $7 million, or 8%, primarily due to lower severance expense as well as lower professional and purchased services expense, resulting in a $3 million, or 8%, increase in income before taxes.

Private Wealth Management provides investment management, wealth management, and comprehensive banking services for high net worth individuals, families, family offices, charitable gift programs, endowments, foundations, professionals and entrepreneurs. It operates from more than 60 locations in 14 states. The results of the Private Wealth Management sector are driven by the level of assets managed and custodied as well as the mix of those assets and the level of activity in client accounts. Net interest revenue is determined by the level and spread of loans and deposits. Expenses of this sector are driven primarily by staff expense in the investment management, sales, service and support groups.

Revenue increased $3 million, or 2%, compared with the first quarter of 2003 due primarily to an $8 million, or 12%, increase in trust and investment fee revenue due to market appreciation, partially offset by a 10% decrease in net interest revenue due to narrowing spreads. Expenses increased $9 million, or 12%, primarily reflecting higher staff expense due to an acquisition and higher incentive expense due to increased sales, as well as increased occupancy expense. Income before taxes decreased $6 million, or 9%, compared with the first quarter of 2003. Client assets were $76 billion at March 31, 2004, an increase of 1% from Dec. 31, 2003, and an increase of 19% from March 31, 2003, reflecting the impact of equity market appreciation.

Revenue decreased $1 million in the first quarter of 2004 compared with the fourth quarter of 2003, primarily reflecting lower investment management revenue. Total expenses, including credit quality expense, were unchanged, resulting in a 1% decrease in income before taxes compared with the fourth quarter of 2003.

Business sectors (continued)

transition management, commission recapture, transfer agency, fund accounting and administration, Web-based investment management software and foreign exchange and derivative products. These services and products are provided to corporate and public retirement funds, foundations and endowments and global financial institutions including investment managers, insurance companies and mutual funds. As a global service provider, these products are distributed through the franchise’s sales organization along with the Corporation’s joint venture partners, CIBC Mellon, ABN AMRO Mellon and Russell/Mellon. Internet-based investment manager software solutions are provided by Eagle Investment Systems.

The results of the Asset Servicing sector are driven by a number of factors which include the market value of assets under administration and custody as well as the level of transaction activity and extent of services provided including custody, accounting, administration, daily valuations, performance measurement, securities lending, foreign exchange, and investment manager backoffice outsourcing. Market interest rates and changes to them impact both securities lending revenue and the earnings and value of client cash balances. Foreign exchange revenues are directly influenced by the volume of client transactions and the spread realized on such transactions, and indirectly influenced by factors including market volatility in major currencies, the level of cross-border assets held in custody for clients, and the level and nature of underlying cross-border investment and other transactions undertaken by corporate and institutional clients. Eagle Investment Systems fee revenue is dependent on investment manager discretionary spending for license and development fees and professional services. Sector expenses are principally driven by staffing levels and technology investments necessary to process transaction volumes. Fees paid to subcustodians are driven by market values of global assets and related transaction volumes.

Revenue in the first quarter of 2004 compared to the first quarter of 2003 increased $27 million, or 16%, primarily due to higher institutional trust and custody revenue from net new business and higher foreign exchange revenue. Operating expense increased $17 million, or 14%, primarily in support of new business growth and development around enhancements to existing products. Income before taxes increased $10 million, or 23%, compared with the first quarter of 2003. Assets under administration or custody for this sector were $2.793 trillion at March 31, 2004, an increase of $105 billion, or 4%, compared with Dec. 31, 2003, and an increase of $636 billion, or 29%, compared with March 31, 2003. The increase compared with Dec. 31, 2003, resulted from net new business, market appreciation and the effect of foreign exchange rates.

The $18 million, or 11%, increase in revenue compared with the fourth quarter of 2003 was primarily due to higher foreign exchange revenue and higher institutional trust and custody revenue from net new business, partially offset by lower net interest revenue. Operating expenses were down slightly as lower severance and other expense were nearly offset by increased expenses in support of new business growth and development around enhancements to existing products, as well as higher incentive expense. Income before taxes increased $20 million, or 63%, compared with the fourth quarter of 2003.

Earned from mutual fund investments in employee benefit plans administered in this sector.

The Human Resources & Investor Solutions (HR&IS) sector is organized around consolidated lines of business and the Mellon brand for retirement, employee benefits, human resources (HR) outsourcing and investor solutions. The sector provides consulting, outsourcing and administration services to design, build and operate end-to-end solutions in HR and shareholder services that leverage scalable operations and technology. Consulting fee revenue is somewhat dependent on discretionary corporate spending on the design and implementation of retirement, benefits, shareholder and compensation programs and other project work. Clients are generally billed on an hourly basis at rates that vary based upon staff level and experience. Consultant utilization, a key revenue driver, is a function of work levels and headcount. Outsourcing and benefit plan administration fees are influenced by number of employees serviced, plan participant counts, volume of transactions processed, project work and market value of benefit plan assets under administration. Shareholder services consist of a diverse array of products to shareholders and corporations including stock transfer and record keeping services, investment plan services, demutualizations, corporate actions and unclaimed property services. Shareholder services revenues include earnings related to customer balances maintained in an agency capacity. Customer balances held in an agency capacity and not reflected on the Corporation’s balance sheet totaled $247 million at March 31, 2004. Earnings on these balances are classified as HR&IS revenue. Earnings on customer balances reflected on the Corporation’s balance sheet are classified as net interest revenue. Sector expenses are driven by staff, equipment and space required to support the services provided by the sector.

Revenue increased $2 million, or 1%, compared with the first quarter of 2003, primarily due to higher net interest revenue due to higher average deposit levels partially offset by lower outsourcing and consulting revenue. Expenses decreased $13 million, or 6%, compared with the first quarter of 2003, primarily due to the favorable impact of expense initiatives started in the third quarter of 2003. Income before taxes increased $15 million compared with the first quarter of 2003.

Compared with the fourth quarter of 2003, revenue increased $1 million, or less than 1%. Operating expense decreased $7 million, or 3%, primarily relating to lower staff and general expenses. Income before taxes increased $8 million compared with the fourth quarter of 2003.

Treasury Services includes global cash management, credit products for large corporations, insurance premium financing (AFCO), commercial real estate lending, corporate finance, securities underwriting and trading, and the activities of Mellon 1^st Business Bank, National Association, in California. Global cash management results are driven by electronic cash management activity including: automated clearing house, wire transfer and telecash; remittance processing services, primarily corporate and retail lockbox; and ancillary processing services for imaging and storage activities. The other significant driver is the net interest revenue earned from the deposit balances generated by activity across the business operations. These products are provided to large corporations, banks, brokers, insurance companies and government agencies.

The results of the Treasury Services sector’s lending lines of business — Large Corporate, AFCO, Real Estate Finance, and Mellon 1^st Business Bank — are driven by the level of commitments, and fees applicable to these commitments, and the level of outstanding loans and the spreads on these loans. The results are further impacted by the risk profile that the Corporation will accept and, in the case of Mellon 1^st Business Bank, its ability to gather significant levels of deposits. Securities underwriting results are driven by the general volatility of the bond and fixed income markets and the Corporation’s ability to generate new underwritings. In accordance with the Corporation’s management accounting reporting practices, credit quality expense for the core sectors reflects net credit losses, not the provision for credit losses. Therefore, a provision for credit losses is not included in the Treasury Services sector results. As also discussed in Other Activity, when a determination is made that a lending arrangement does not meet the Corporation’s relationship strategy criteria, it is moved to Other Activity and managed under an exit strategy. Any subsequent credit quality expense (revenue) is reported in Other Activity and not in the core sectors.

Business sectors (continued)

Revenue for this sector decreased $23 million, or by 12%, in the first quarter of 2004 compared to the first quarter of 2003, due to lower net interest revenue resulting from a lower average level of loans and a lower spread as well as from the change in the manner in which the Department of the Treasury is paying for cash management services as further discussed on page 27. The increase in cash management revenue resulted from this change in payment methodology. Credit quality expense decreased $4 million. Operating expenses decreased $2 million, or 2%, primarily due to lower general expenses, resulting in a $17 million, or 20%, reduction in income before taxes.

Revenue decreased $6 million, or 3%, in the first quarter of 2004 compared to the fourth quarter of 2003, primarily due to lower net interest revenue from lower deposit levels and lower cash management revenue. Operating expenses decreased $5 million, or 4%, due to lower general expense. Income before taxes of $71 million was unchanged from the prior quarter.

Other Activity

Other Activity includes business exits activity consisting of the results for large ticket leasing, which is in a runoff mode; several small non-strategic businesses; the merchant card business; certain lending relationships that are part of the Corporation’s business exits strategy; the results of Mellon Ventures, the Corporation’s venture capital group; and business activities or utilities, including Corporate Treasury, that are not separate lines of business or have not been fully allocated for management reporting purposes to the core business sectors.

Revenue in the Other Activity sector primarily reflects net interest revenue from business exits activity, earnings on capital above that required for the core business sectors, gains from the sale of assets, and the gains/losses and funding costs of the Mellon Ventures’ portfolio. Operating expense includes various direct expenses for items not attributable to the operations of a business sector, a net credit for the net corporate level (income) expense amounts allocated from Other Activity to the core business sectors, and the expenses of Mellon Ventures. Assets in Other Activity include assets of the activities discussed below that the Corporation intends to exit, the investments of Mellon Ventures and assets of certain areas not identified with the core business sectors. This sector also includes assets and liabilities recorded in Corporate Treasury and not allocated to a particular line of business. Average common equity represents capital in excess of that required for the core business sectors, as well as capital required for the investments of Mellon Ventures and business exits.

In accordance with the Corporation’s management accounting reporting practices, credit quality expense (revenue) in Other Activity represents the Corporation’s provision for credit losses in excess of net charge-offs recorded in the core business sectors. Credit quality expense (revenue) for the core business sectors is presented on a net charge-off (recovery) basis and totaled less than $1 million in the first quarter of 2004. When a determination is made that a borrowing arrangement does not meet the Corporation’s relationship strategy criteria, it is moved to business exits in Other Activity and managed

Business sectors (continued)

under an exit strategy. Any subsequent credit quality expense (revenue) is reported in Other Activity and not in the core business sectors. The Corporation’s business exits strategy is to exit all credit relationships for which a broad fee-based relationship resulting from the cross-sale of the Corporation’s fee-based services does not exist. The loans and leases transferred to this classification include the Corporation’s large ticket lease portfolio, which was principally transaction based; selected types of loans which were also transaction based (leveraged loans, project financings); and loans to companies where a broad fee-based relationship does not exist. The Corporation will not renew its credit relationship with such companies when the respective contractual commitment periods end. The Corporation may consider selling remaining commitments on a case-by-case basis as opportunities arise.

Included in Other Activity in the first quarter of 2004 is the $93 million gain from the sale of approximately 35% of the Corporation’s indirect investment in Shinsei Bank, the $19 million charge associated with the writedown of small non-strategic businesses that the Corporation intends to exit and a $7 million negative provision for credit losses. Gains on the sale of mortgage-backed securities totaled $12 million and $11 million in the fourth quarter of 2003 and the first quarter of 2003, respectively.

Minority interest totaled $12 million, $13 million and $16 million, respectively. The amount of goodwill and intangible assets subtracted from shareholders’ equity and total assets is net of the tax benefit. Tax benefits related to tax deductible goodwill and intangible assets totaled $493 million, $492 million and $447 million, respectively.

The Corporation’s higher capital ratios at March 31, 2004 compared with Dec. 31, 2003 reflect earnings retention and higher accumulated unrealized gains primarily in the securities available for sale portfolio, offset in part by the impact of common stock repurchases, net of reissuances. The Tier I and Total capital ratios were impacted by the guarantee provided to the ABN AMRO Mellon custody joint venture for securities lending activity, which at March 31, 2004 resulted in lower Tier I and Total capital ratios of approximately 135 basis points and 205 basis points, respectively.

In September 2003, the regulatory agencies proposed new capital guidelines concerning the risk-based capital treatment of asset-backed commercial paper programs. The agencies’ proposal would require banks to hold risk-based capital against short-term liquidity facilities provided to asset-backed commercial paper programs. At March 31, 2004, this proposal would have decreased the Corporation’s Tier I and Total risk-based capital ratios by approximately 10 basis points and 15 basis points, respectively.

Large corporate commercial and financial exposure - by industry sector

As shown in the following table, large corporate loans totaled $1.146 billion at March 31, 2004, a $146 million decrease from Dec. 31, 2003. Loans and unfunded commitments totaled $22.5 billion at March 31, 2004, a $683 million, or 3%, decrease compared with Dec. 31, 2003. This decrease primarily resulted from actions taken as part of the Corporation’s strategy to reduce credit risk.

Commitments to extend credit

Total unfunded commitments to extend credit decreased $614 million, or 4%, compared with Dec. 31, 2003 and $3.146 billion, or 17%, compared with March 31, 2003. Unfunded commitments to extend credit expiring over one year at March 31, 2004, decreased $259 million, or 4%, compared with Dec. 31, 2003 and $469 million, or 6%, compared with March 31, 2003, in part resulting from the actions taken as part of the Corporation’s strategy to reduce risk.

Other guarantees and indemnities

In the normal course of business, the Corporation offers guarantees in support of certain joint ventures and subsidiaries, and certain other guarantees and indemnities.

Standby letters of credit and foreign and other guarantees irrevocably obligate the Corporation for a stated period to disburse funds to a third-party beneficiary if the Corporation’s customer fails to perform under the terms of an agreement with the beneficiary. The Corporation must recognize, at the inception of standby letters of credit and foreign and other guarantees, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. At March 31, 2004, the Corporation had a liability of $7 million related to letters of credit issued or modified since Dec. 31, 2002. As required by FIN 45, the fair value of the liability, which was recorded with an offsetting asset in Other assets, was estimated as the present value of contractual customer fees. For additional information on standby letters of credit and foreign and other guarantees, and custodian securities lent with indemnification against broker default of return of securities, see pages 115 and 116 of the Corporation’s 2003 Financial Annual Report.

Off-balance-sheet financial instruments with contract amounts that represent credit risk (continued)

Mellon Bank, N.A. and ABN AMRO Bank N.V. entered into a joint venture to provide global securities services, with operations commencing in January 2003. Each of the two partners signed a statutory declaration under Dutch law as of Dec. 31, 2002 to be jointly and severally liable with the joint venture to parties that have a provable contractual debt or damage claim. The benefit of this declaration is potentially available to all creditors and customers of the joint venture with valid legal claims where the joint venture has defaulted, and totaled approximately $18.7 billion at March 31, 2004 primarily relating to securities lending activity. This amount assumes that there is no capital or assets of the joint venture to satisfy such claims and that there is no level of contribution by ABN AMRO Bank N.V.

As of March 31, 2004, the Corporation provided a guarantee for one-half of a $6 million debt incurred by Pareto Partners, in which the Corporation has a 30% equity interest.

The Corporation has also provided standard representations for underwriting agreements, acquisition and divestiture agreements, sales of loans and commitments, and other similar types of arrangements and customary indemnification for claims and legal proceedings related to its provision of financial services. The Corporation has purchased insurance to mitigate certain of these risks. The Corporation is a minority equity investor in, and member of, several industry clearing or settlement exchanges through which foreign exchange, securities or other transactions settle. Certain of these industry clearing or settlement exchanges require their members to guarantee their obligations and liabilities or to provide financial support in the event other partners do not honor their obligations. It is not possible to estimate a maximum potential amount of payments that could be required with such agreements.

Referral arrangements with Three Rivers Funding Corp. (TRFC), an asset-backed commercial paper entity

The Corporation’s primary banking subsidiary, Mellon Bank, N.A. (the Bank) has a referral relationship with TRFC, a special purpose entity that issues commercial paper. TRFC is owned by an independent third party and is not a subsidiary of either the Bank or the Corporation. Its financial results are not included in the financial statements of the Bank or the Corporation. TRFC was formed in 1990 and can issue up to $5 billion of commercial paper to make loans secured by, and to purchase, pools of receivables. Fee revenue of approximately $1 million was received from this entity in each of the first quarter of 2004, fourth quarter of 2003 and first quarter of 2003, for the services and the liquidity and credit support facilities. See Note 2 of this report for a further discussion of the Corporation’s relationship with TRFC.

Nonperforming assets

Of the $51 million balance of total nonperforming assets at March 31, 2004, $36 million was to a California-based electric and natural gas utility company that voluntarily filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the second quarter of 2001; $7 million was to a cable television operator; and $8 million consisted of various smaller loans. The California-based electric and natural gas utility company emerged from bankruptcy in April 2004 and fully repaid all borrowings. Excluding this loan, nonperforming assets would have totaled $15 million at March 31, 2004. Additional information regarding the Corporation’s practices for placing assets on nonaccrual status is presented in the “Nonperforming assets” discussion and in Note 1 in the Corporation’s 2003 Financial Annual Report.

Provision and reserve for credit exposure

The Corporation’s accounting policies regarding the reserve for credit exposure are regarded as critical accounting policies in that they involve significant management valuation judgements. For a further discussion of the Corporation’s accounting policies relating to the reserve for credit exposure see pages 62 and 63 of the Corporation’s 2003 Financial Annual Report.

The allocation of the Corporation’s loan loss reserve is presented in the following table. This allocation is judgmental, and the entire reserve is available to absorb credit losses regardless of the type of loss.

Total unfunded commitments reserve	$	77	$	75	$	64

The base reserve totaled $77 million at March 31, 2004, a decrease of $11 million compared with $88 million at Dec. 31, 2003 and a decrease of $12 million compared with March 31, 2003. The decrease compared with Dec. 31, 2003 is related to overall improvements in credit quality, particularly international loans, and slight decreases in loan volume. During the quarter, the Corporation was fully repaid on certain lower-quality loans totaling approximately $115 million, and those loan commitments were cancelled. The impairment reserve was $2 million at March 31, 2004, compared with $2 million at Dec. 31, 2003 and no impairment reserve at March 31, 2003. Nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans were .68% at March 31, 2004 compared with .69% at Dec. 31, 2003 and ..58% at March 31, 2003. The unallocated reserve

Provision and reserve for credit exposure (continued)

totaled $15 million at March 31, 2004, an increase of $2 million compared with $13 million at Dec. 31, 2003 and a decrease of $10 million compared to March 31, 2003. The reserve currently reflects uncertainty about customers sensitive to increases in oil prices and decreasing travel such as airlines and chemicals, customers currently facing regulatory or legal issues and certain real estate, cable, pharmaceutical and paper manufacturing customers.

The reserve for unfunded commitments totaled $63 million at March 31, 2004, an increase of $2 million from Dec. 31, 2003 and $8 million from March 31, 2003. The reserve for letters of credit and bankers acceptances totaled $14 million at March 31, 2004, and Dec. 31, 2003. The increase in the reserves for commitments represents concerns over certain companies facing regulatory/legal issues, paper and telecom customers offset by stabilization in certain areas of previous concern over certain power generation and retail sales customers.

In the first quarter of 2004, the corporation recorded a negative provision for credit losses of $7 million compared with no provision in the fourth quarter of 2003, and a positive provision of $4 million in the first quarter of 2003. There were no net credit-related losses in the first quarter of 2004 compared with net credit-related losses of $3 million in the fourth quarter of 2003 and $2 million in the first quarter of 2003, as detailed in the table on the following page. The reserve for loan losses as a percentage of total loans decreased to 1.27% at March 31, 2004 down from 1.37% at Dec. 31, 2003, and 1.46% at March 31, 2003. The reserve as a percentage of nonperforming loans was 186% at March 31, 2004, 200% at Dec. 31, 2003 and 253% at March 31, 2003.

These ratios are products of the reserve calculation methodology which estimates appropriate reserves for each component of the loan portfolio. The resulting ratios are benchmarks, but not targets. The ratio of the reserve for loan losses to nonperforming loans is an outcome of two interrelated but separate processes: the establishment of an appropriate loan loss reserve level for the portfolio as a whole, including the nonperforming component in the portfolio; and the classification of certain assets as nonperforming in accordance with established accounting, regulatory and management policies. While the level of nonperforming loans is an indication of the overall credit quality of the loan portfolio, there is no direct correlation between the level of nonperforming loans and the size of the reserve for loan losses. The Corporation’s management concluded that, at March 31, 2004, the overall reserve level was appropriate to recognize inherent losses in the loan portfolio. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors reviewed and concurred.

Market and liquidity risk

For a discussion of the management of market and liquidity risk see page 48 of the Corporation’s 2003 Financial Annual Report.

Asset/liability management

Asset/liability management activities address management of on-balance-sheet assets and liabilities from an interest rate risk, currency risk and liquidity management perspective as well as the use of derivatives for asset/liability management purposes.

The increase in the Corporation’s average interest-earning assets compared with the fourth quarter of 2003 resulted from higher levels of securities and loans partially offset by lower levels of money market investments and trading account securities. The increase in securities primarily reflects the reinvestment of higher levels of core funds. The decrease in trading account securities resulted from the sale of the fixed income trading business in December 2003. The decrease in interest-earning assets compared with the first quarter of 2003 primarily resulted from a lower level of securities and loans. The decrease in securities primarily resulted from the sales and prepayment in 2003 of higher coupon mortgage-backed securities as a result of the lower interest rate environment. The lower level of loans was due to the continued reduction of large corporate loans.

Core funds, considered to be the most stable sources of funding, are defined principally as institutional money market deposits and other deposit sweeps, individual money market and other savings deposits, savings certificates, demand deposits, shareholders’ equity, notes and debentures with original maturities over one year, junior subordinated debentures, and other liabilities. Core funds primarily support core assets, consisting of loans, net of the reserve, and noninterest-earning assets. Average core assets increased $787 million in the first quarter of 2004 from the fourth quarter of 2003, primarily reflecting a higher level of noninterest-earning assets. Core funds averaged 160% of core assets in the first quarter of 2004 compared with 160% in the fourth quarter of 2003 and 166% in the first quarter of 2003. The excess of core funds over core assets are typically invested in securities.

Purchased funds are defined as funds acquired in the wholesale money markets including deposits in foreign offices (excluding cash management and sub-custodial sweep deposits), federal funds purchased and securities sold under repurchase agreements, negotiable certificates of deposit, other time deposits, U.S. Treasury tax and loan demand notes, term federal funds purchased, commercial paper, short-term bank notes and other funds borrowed. Average purchased funds decreased $518 million in the first quarter of 2004

Asset/liability management (continued)

from the fourth quarter of 2003, primarily due to a lower level of borrowed funds. Average purchased funds totaled 9% of total average assets in the first quarter of 2004 compared with 11% in the fourth quarter of 2003 and 8% in the first quarter of 2003.

Liquidity and dividends

The Corporation manages its liquidity position with the objective of maintaining the ability to fund commitments and to repay liabilities in accordance with their terms, even during periods of market or financial stress. Assets and liabilities are managed in such a way to accommodate changes in funding requirements without generating a material adverse impact on net income. Core demand and time deposits, gathered from the Corporation’s private wealth management and corporate and institutional services businesses, are used in conjunction with long-term debt to provide stable sources of funding. Purchased funds, acquired from a variety of sources and customers in worldwide financial markets, are used to supplement the core sources of funding. Liquid assets, in the form of money market investments and portfolio securities held available for sale, are also utilized to meet short-term requirements for cash. Liquidity is managed on both a consolidated basis and at Mellon Financial Corporation (Parent Corporation).

The Parent Corporation has access to the following principal sources of liquidity: dividends and interest from its subsidiaries, the commercial paper market, a revolving credit agreement with third party financial institutions and access to the capital markets. The ability of national bank subsidiaries to pay dividends to the Parent Corporation is subject to certain regulatory limitations. For a discussion of these limitations, see Note 25 in the Corporation’s 2003 Financial Annual Report. Under the more restrictive limitation, the Corporation’s national bank subsidiaries can, without prior regulatory approval, declare dividends subsequent to March 31, 2004 of up to approximately $320 million, less any dividends declared and plus or minus net profits or losses, as defined, earned between April 1, 2004 and the date of any such dividend declaration. To comply with regulatory guidelines, the Corporation and its subsidiary banks continually evaluate the level of cash dividends in relation to their respective operating income, capital needs, asset quality and overall financial condition.

At March 31, 2004, the Parent Corporation held cash and marketable securities of $584 million. For the first quarter of 2004, the Parent Corporation’s average commercial paper borrowings were $25 million, compared with $12 million in the fourth quarter of 2003 and $26 million in the first quarter of 2003. Commercial paper outstanding at March 31, 2004 totaled $6 million.

The Parent Corporation has a $250 million revolving credit agreement with financial institutions that expires in June 2004. There were no borrowings under this facility at March 31, 2004. The Parent Corporation also has the ability to access the capital markets with $1.45 billion of unused capacity under an effective shelf registration statement. In March 2004, the Corporation issued $300 million of 3.25% senior notes maturing in April 2009. Access to the capital markets is partially dependent on the Corporation’s and Mellon Bank, N.A.’s credit ratings which are shown in the following table.

Liquidity and dividends (continued)

Mellon Bank, N.A.:

Contractual maturities of the Corporation’s long-term debt totaled $200 million in the first quarter of 2004. Contractual maturities will total approximately $5 million for the remainder of 2004.

The Corporation paid $68 million in common stock dividends in the first quarter of 2004 compared with $56 million in the first quarter of 2003. The common dividend payout ratio, on a net income basis, was 28% in the first quarter of 2004 on a dividend of $.16 per share compared with 35% in the first quarter of 2003 on a dividend of $.13 per share. On April 20, 2004, the Corporation announced a $.02, or 13%, increase in its quarterly common stock dividend to $.18 per share. Based upon shares outstanding at March 31, 2004 and the current quarterly common stock dividend rate of $.18 per share, the annual common stock dividend requirement in 2004 is expected to be approximately $300 million.

As shown in the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and due from banks increased by $83 million during the first quarter of 2004 to $2.685 billion. The increase resulted from $319 million of net cash provided by investing activities and $139 million of net cash provided by operating activities, partially offset by $382 million of net cash used in financing activities. Net cash provided by investing activities primarily resulted from a decrease in the level of term deposits and other money market investments partially offset by a higher level of securities. Net cash used in financing activities primarily resulted from a lower level of deposits, and repurchase of common stock, partially offset by a higher level of short term borrowings and the net issuance of longer-term debt. The lower deposit level is primarily due to the change in the manner in which the Department of the Treasury is paying for certain cash management and merchant card services in the second half of 2003, discussed in “cash management revenue” on page 27.

Interest rate sensitivity analysis

Interest rate risk is measured using net interest margin simulation and asset/liability net present value sensitivity analyses. The following table illustrates the simulation analysis of the impact of a 50, 100 and 200 basis point shift upward or 50 and 100 basis point shift downward in interest rates on net interest revenue, earnings per share and return on equity. Given the low interest rate environment that existed in the first quarter of 2004, the impact of a 200 basis point downward shift is not shown in the table. This analysis was prepared using the levels of all interest-earning assets, supporting funds and derivative instruments used for interest rate risk management at March 31, 2004, and excluding the impact of interest receipts on nonperforming loans. The impact of the rate movements was developed by simulating the effect of rates changing in a gradual fashion over a six-month period from the March 31, 2004 levels and remaining at those levels thereafter. Financial market conditions and management’s response to events may cause actual

Interest rate sensitivity analysis (continued)

results to differ from simulated results. Additional information regarding the Corporation’s interest rate risk management is presented in the “Interest rate sensitivity analysis” discussion on pages 51 through 53 in the Corporation’s 2003 Financial Annual Report.


Interest rate simulation sensitivity analysis	Movements in interest rates from March 31, 2004 rates
	Increase									Decrease
	+50 bp			+100 bp			+200 bp			-50 bp			-100 bp
Simulated impact in the next 12 months compared with March 31, 2004:
Net interest revenue decrease		(0.9	)%		(2.1	)%		(5.2	)%		(1.1	)%		(4.8	)%
Earnings per share decrease	$	(.01	)	$	(.02	)	$	(.04	)	$	(.01	)	$	(.03	)
Return on equity decrease		(7	) bp		(17	) bp		(42	) bp		(9	) bp		(38	) bp

The anticipated impact on net interest revenue under the various scenarios did not exceed the Corporation’s guidelines for assuming interest rate risk at both March 31, 2004 and Dec. 31, 2003. The simulation results reflect the Corporation’s efforts to manage the repricing characteristics of its interest-earning assets and supporting funds.

Securities available for sale

The amortized cost basis of securities available for sale totaled $11.5 billion at March 31, 2004, as shown in Note 5 of this report. The average yields and repricing lives for the fixed and adjustable/floating rate securities are as follows.


Securities available for sale	March 31, 2004

Estimated average repricing lives are in years. Estimated lives for mortgage-backed securities include the effect of estimated prepayments, while the estimated lives for U.S. Treasury and agencies and states and political subdivisions securities are final maturities.

Managing interest rate risk with derivative instruments

Derivatives are used as part of the Corporation’s overall asset/liability management process to augment the management of interest rate exposure. The following table presents the gross notional amounts and weighted-average maturities of derivative instruments used to manage interest rate risk, identified by the underlying interest rate-sensitive instruments. The gross notional amount of interest rate swaps used to manage interest rate risk was $244 million lower at March 31, 2004 compared with Dec. 31, 2003, due to lower receive fixed instruments associated with long-term debt and junior subordinated debentures. The

Interest rate sensitivity analysis (continued)

notional amounts should be viewed in the context of the Corporation’s overall interest rate risk management activities to assess the impact on the net interest margin. The interest received and interest paid are recorded on an accrual basis in the interest revenue and interest expense accounts associated with the underlying liabilities and assets. The net differential resulted in interest revenue of $37 million in the first quarter of 2004, compared with interest revenue of $31 million in the first quarter of 2003. Additional information regarding these contracts is presented in Note 28 in the Corporation’s 2003 Financial Annual Report.

^(a)

The amount of credit risk associated with these instruments is limited to the cost of replacing a contract in a gain position, on which a counterparty may default. Credit risk associated with these instruments was $223 million at March 31, 2004, $162 million at Dec. 31, 2003, and $312 million at March 31, 2003 and is included in Other assets on the balance sheet. The credit risk associated with interest rate swaps is calculated after considering master netting agreements, which are generally applicable to derivative instruments used for both trading activities and risk management purposes.

Fair value hedges

The Corporation enters into interest rate swaps to convert portions of its fixed rate junior subordinated debentures to floating rate debt, its fixed rate long-term debt to floating rate debt and, to a small degree, certain fixed rate deposits and loans to variable rate. The fixed rate liability instruments are changed to variable rate instruments by entering into receive fixed/pay variable swaps and the fixed rate asset instruments are changed to variable rate instruments by entering into pay fixed/receive variable swaps. No ineffectiveness was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2003.

Cash flow hedges

At March 31, 2004, there were no outstanding cash flow hedges. No ineffectiveness was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2004. Ineffectiveness of less than $1 million was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2003.

Hedges of net investment in foreign operations

The Corporation uses five year yen denominated debt to hedge its investment in a Japanese bank. The purpose of this hedge is to protect against adverse movements in exchange rates.

Derivative instruments used for trading activities

The Corporation enters into various foreign exchange and interest rate derivative contracts for trading purposes. Trading activities primarily involve providing various derivative products to customers to assist them in managing foreign currency exchange risk, interest rate risk and equity price risk and for managing the Corporation’s risks in certain trading portfolios and as part of its proprietary trading activities. All of these instruments are carried at market value with realized and unrealized gains and losses included in foreign exchange revenue and other trading revenue. Additional information regarding these contracts is presented in the Corporation’s 2003 Financial Annual Report on pages 53 and 54 and in Note 28.

Credit default swaps allow the transfer of credit risk from one party to another for a fee. At March 31, 2004, the Corporation had $609 million notional value of credit default swaps outstanding. These swaps are used to hedge credit risk associated with commercial lending activities. Fair market value adjustments resulting in a gain of less than $1 million were recorded in other trading revenue on the credit default swaps in the first quarter of 2004 while the first quarter of 2003 included a loss of less than $1 million and the fourth quarter of 2003 included a loss of $5 million.

The amount of credit risk associated with these instruments is limited to the cost of replacing a contract in a gain position, on which a counterparty may default. Credit risk associated with these instruments, primarily foreign currency and option contracts, was $790 million at March 31, 2004, $955 million at Dec. 31, 2003, and $1.087 billion at March 31, 2003 and is included in Other assets on the balance sheet. The credit risk associated with these instruments is calculated after considering master netting agreements, which are generally applicable to derivative instruments used for both trading activities and risk management purposes.

The Corporation uses a value-at-risk methodology to estimate the potential daily amount that could be lost from adverse market movements. Using the Corporation’s methodology, which considers such factors as changes in currency exchange rates, interest rates, spreads and related volatility, the aggregate value-at-risk for trading activities was approximately $5 million at March 31, 2004 compared with approximately $4 million at Dec. 31, 2003 and $8 million at March 31, 2003.

Critical accounting policies

The Corporation’s significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 1 in the Corporation’s 2003 Financial Annual Report. The Corporation’s critical accounting policies are those related to valuing venture capital investments, provision and reserve for credit exposure, and accounting for pensions. For a discussion of these policies, see pages 61 through 64 and pages 105 and 106 of the Corporation’s 2003 Financial Annual Report.

Item 4. - Controls and procedures

The Corporation’s management, with the participation of its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness, as of March 31, 2004, of the Corporation’s “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon their evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures, as of March 31, 2004, were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Corporation in the reports filed or submitted by it under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Corporation in such reports is accumulated and communicated to the Corporation’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There was no change in the Corporation’s “internal control over financial reporting” (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2004 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.

In response to the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Corporation has created a multi-disciplinary project team to oversee its compliance efforts. The Corporation’s objective is to achieve compliance with the requirements of Section 404 for 2004 and will retain its independent public accountants to form an opinion on management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting. The Corporation currently believes that when required by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission it will be able to make the assertion that the Corporation’s internal controls over financial reporting are effective.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings.

Various legal actions and proceedings are pending or are threatened against the Corporation and its subsidiaries, some of which seek relief or damages in amounts that are substantial. These actions and proceedings arise in the ordinary course of the Corporation’s businesses and operations and include suits relating to its lending, collections, servicing, investment, mutual fund, advisory, trust, custody, benefits consulting, shareholder services, cash management and other activities and operations. Because of the complex nature of some of these actions and proceedings, it may be a number of years before such matters ultimately are resolved. After consultation with legal counsel, management believes that the aggregate liability, if any, resulting from such pending and threatened actions and proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Corporation’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Item 2.

Changes in Securities, Use of Proceeds and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.

(c)

On Jan. 23, 2004, the Corporation issued 87,054 shares of common stock to Wachovia Bank, N.A., as Trustee of the Mellon Financial Corporation Deferred Share Award Trust No. 2. In consideration for the issuance of the shares, Wachovia Bank, as Trustee, assumed the obligation of the Corporation under its Long-Term Profit Incentive Plan (1996) to deliver shares to individuals who received Deferred Share Awards under such Plan. The issuance of shares was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 under section 4(2) as a transaction not involving any public offering.

On Feb. 24, 2004, the Corporation issued 46,592 shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”), to the former shareholders of The Arden Group, Inc. (“Arden Group”) as further consideration for the acquisition of
