Darrow, Senior Vice President. It serves as a 13F Combination Report, covering holdings for BNY Mellon and 40 other included institutional investment managers.
Key Financial Metrics
As a Form 13F filing, this document reports investment holdings rather than the operating financial performance (revenue, profit, cash flow) of BNY Mellon itself. The following aggregate metrics represent the investment portfolio under management:
- Total Portfolio Value: $384,388,542,000 (reported as 384,388,542 in thousands).

Material Changes and Disclosures
The filing includes specific disclosures regarding the scope of reported securities:
- Lehman Bankruptcy Omissions: Certain Section 13(f) securities have been omitted because they are subject to the Lehman bankruptcy proceeding. BNY Mellon currently lacks investment discretion over these securities and will report them once discretion is regained.
- New File Numbers: BNY Mellon has initiated the process to obtain 13F File Numbers for 4 of the "Other Included Managers" listed in this report.
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
This filing type does not contain management commentary, forward-looking guidance, or risk factors regarding the company's future business operations. The primary risk disclosed is the temporary inability to report specific securities tied to the Lehman bankruptcy proceedings due to a lack of investment discretion.
