Phantom stock financial

"Phantom stock acquired pursuant to prior election under The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors"

A phantom stock is a form of compensation that gives employees or executives the benefits of stock ownership, such as the increase in stock value, without actually giving them real shares. It acts like a promise to pay the employee the equivalent value of company stock later, often as a bonus or incentive. This allows companies to motivate and reward staff without diluting ownership or transferring actual shares.

Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors financial

"acquired pursuant to prior election under The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors"

A deferred compensation plan for directors is an arrangement that lets board members postpone receiving part of their pay until a later date—often retirement or a set future time—so the money can grow or be paid under specified conditions. Think of it like directing a portion of your paycheck into a locked savings account that pays out later; investors care because it creates future cash or stock obligations, signals how the company motivates and retains leadership, and can affect shareholder value through timing of payouts or potential dilution.
