NEW YORK, June 16, 2014 – BNY Mellon, a global leader in investment management and investment services, has been named to the roll of honor for fund accounting and valuation in the 2014 Global Custodian Mutual Fund Administration Survey.

In addition, BNY Mellon ranked first versus its peer group (State Street, JP Morgan, Citi) in fund accounting and valuation and transfer agency services, according to the survey.

“We thank our clients for the strong endorsement they have given us,” said Samir Pandiri, chief executive officer of asset servicing at BNY Mellon.  “We achieved higher scores over last year in all of the survey’s service categories, and this reflects the commitment of our employees for providing the best possible experience to our clients.”

Pandiri added that the Global Custodian survey is particularly meaningful as it is constructed to heavily weight the scores from the most sophisticated users in the areas they regard as most important.

Now in its 12th year, Global Custodian’s Mutual Fund Administration Survey asks participants  to rate fund administration providers across eight different aspects of service, including relationship management and client service, value delivered, fund accounting and valuation, transfer agency, distribution support, fund reporting, compliance and custody services.
