Each is ranked by the shares voted on the item that the most managers of that type reported, shown as a share of the 686,379,045 shares outstanding at the time of that meeting.

Percentages above are of 686,379,045 shares outstanding, as reported by The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation on its Form 10-Q dated March 31, 2026 (see the filing on EDGAR). This is the count contemporaneous with the 2025-2026 meeting, not today’s. Each holding is as of its own filing, which may be dated before or after the meeting.
Every figure above is derived from filings made with the US Securities and Exchange Commission: Form N-PX, in which registered funds disclose how they voted every proxy and institutional managers disclose their votes on executive pay (say-on-pay, say-on-frequency and golden parachutes), and Form 8-K Item 5.07, in which the company reports its own meeting results. Shares outstanding are taken from The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation’s 10-Q dated March 31, 2026. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 14, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.
At The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation's shareholder meeting held April 14, 2026, in the 2025-2026 proxy season, 1,171 asset managers reported how they voted on 13 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 15,248 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — Advisory resolution to approve the 2025 compensation of our named executive officers. — FOR was 56% of the votes cast (FOR divided by FOR plus AGAINST, the conventional basis for proxy support; abstentions, broker non-votes and unvoted shares are excluded because none of them took a side), which is more than half. Whether the item was approved is for the filing to say; that statement has not been read for this item.
