(Reuters) – Bank of New York Mellon Corp beat first-quarter profit estimates on Tuesday, benefiting from the Federal Reserve’s rate hikes that boosted the lender’s interest income.<\/p>\n

Banks have been major beneficiaries of the Fed’s aggressive monetary policy aimed at curbing decades-high inflation, which has also led to heightened market volatility and credit tightening. <\/p>\n

The U.S. banking industry was thrown into a turmoil last month as bank failures dented investor confidence, pressuring both stock and bond markets. <\/p>\n

The collapse of Silicon Valley Bank, the largest bank to fail since the 2008 financial crisis, fanned fears of a liquidity crunch and put financial institutions under scrutiny.<\/p>\n

BNY’s average deposits, a key metric investors have been focusing on this quarter following the bank sector troubles, fell 3% to $274 billion, compared with the end of last year. They dropped 13% on a year-over-year basis. <\/p>\n

The banking crisis along with the already existing concerns about a recession prompted BNY to set aside $27 million in provisions for losses, up from $2 million a year earlier. <\/p>\n

On an adjusted basis, the bank reported a profit of $1.13 per share, edging past analysts’ average estimate of $1.12 per share, according to Refinitiv IBES data. <\/p>\n

The New York-based lender’s net interest income for the quarter surged 62% to $1.1 billion, compared with $698 million a year earlier. <\/p>\n

Assets under custody and administration increased 2% to $46.6 trillion, reflecting client inflows and net new business, the bank said. <\/p>\n

Quarterly revenue jumped 11% to $4.4 billion. <\/p>\n

(This story has been corrected to change the value of assets under custody and administration to $46.6 trillion, not $46.4 trillion, in paragraph 9; clarifies average deposits, corrects the deposit figure to $274 billion, not $167 billion, in paragraph 5 and adds the dropped dollar sign in the last paragraph)<\/p>\n
