Thread regarding Bank of New York Mellon Corp. layoffs

The potential selloff scenarios

It’s just too big to be acquired as a whole. It would have to be sold off in pieces. Sell what you don’t want to be a core business and keep what you do. WM is probably something to sell off.

This reply on another thread by@10bcojfL-2nxs got me thinking, especially in the light of the fact that rumors about a seloff are louder and louder by the day. So, if a seloff would happen, would the company be sold of as a whole entity or shredded into pieces and sold off to multiple companies. Which of these two scenarios is more probable?

They can't sell WM because it's one of the few units in IM that actually makes money and supports all the other losers

Huh? Why would you “sell” a tiny part of what is your more prevalent core service? Maybe I’m misunderstanding what you mean by ETF custody.

I would think in pieces. Heard rumor that JPM is looking at ETF custody department.
