Before the CEO role of Global Markets, this veteran took charge as CEO of the Alternative, Broker-Dealer and Treasury Clearance Groups. During this time, he played a vital position in the 2001 9/11 recovery and the 2008 credit crisis.

Further, at BNY Mellon, Certosimo took on the responsibilities as principal of Morgan Stanley Asset Management from late 1994. Also, he served as the Vice President of the Chase Manhattan Bank's Global Investor Services group for almost 17 years.
