Management is responsible for its assertion about compliance with the requirements of subsections (b) and (c) of Rule 17f-2 of the Act (the specified requirements). Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management's assertion about the Company's compliance with the specified requirements based on our examination. Our examination was conducted in accordance with the attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("AICPA"). Those standards require that we plan and perform the examination to obtain reasonable assurance about whether management's assertion about compliance with the specified requirements is fairly stated, in all material respects. An examination involves performing procedures to obtain evidence about whether management's assertion is fairly stated, in all material respects. The nature, timing, and extent of the procedures selected depend on our judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of management's assertion, whether due to fraud or error. We believe that the evidence we obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We believe that our examination provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our examination does not provide a legal determination on the Company's compliance with specified requirements. In our opinion, management's assertion that BNY Mellon High Yield Strategies Fund complied with the requirements of subsections (b) and (c) of Rule 17f-2 of the Act as of February 28, 2026, with respect to securities reflected in the investment account of the Company is fairly stated, in all material respects. This report is intended solely for the information and use of management and the Board of Trustees of BNY Mellon High Yield Strategies Fund and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties. /s/ERNST & YOUNG LLP New York, New York May 29, 2026 Report of Management on Compliance with Certain Provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940 May 29, 2026 We, as members of management of BNY Mellon High Yield Strategies Fund (the Company), are responsible for complying with the requirements of subsections (b) and (c) of Rule 17f-2, "Custody of Investments by Registered Management Investment Companies," of the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("the Act").
