The Bank of New York was a global financial services company established in 1784 by the American Founding Father Alexander Hamilton. It existed until its merger with the Mellon Financial Corporation on July 2, 2007.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Bank of New York Mellon Profile )〕 The company now continues under the new name of The Bank of New York Mellon or BNY Mellon. ==History== The Bank of New York was founded on June 9, 1784,〔 〕 making it the oldest bank in the United States. Alexander Hamilton wrote the new bank's constitution, and became the individual most actively involved in the organization of The Bank of New York, guiding it through its early stages. The bank opened for business at the Walton House in Lower Manhattan only a few months after the departure of British troops from American soil. It opened with a capitalization of $500,000.〔 William Seton, future father-in-law of Saint Elizabeth Seton, was named director in 1786.〔Barbery, Hélène. ''Elizabeth Seton et les commencements de l'Eglise catholique aux Etats Unis'', 1868. p. 8.〕 To commemorate its 225th anniversary, BNY Mellon created a 5 part video series entitled "Looking Forward : The 225th Anniversary of The Bank of New York Mellon" which was narrated by historian Richard Brookhiser and recaps the company’s history from its founding in 1784.
