To the Board of Directors of
Essex Investment Management Company, Inc.:



We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Essex Investment Management
Company, Inc. as of November 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements
of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years then ended.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Essex Investment Management
Company, Inc. as of November 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with

                             (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)


1.   ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     ORGANIZATION

     Essex Investment Management Company, Inc. (the "Company") is a 
     Subchapter S Corporation incorporated under the laws of The Commonwealth 
     of Massachusetts on December 3, 1976. The Company performs investment 
     advisory services for individuals and fiduciaries. Asset-based 
     management fees are earned based upon periodic market values of the 
     various portfolios managed by the Company. Clients are billed at the end 
     of each calendar quarter for the three previous months. 
     Performance-based management fees are generally earned based upon a 
     percentage of the increase in value of the various portfolios due solely 
     to the appreciation in value of securities plus interest, dividends or 
     other income for the year and are billed annually. Unbilled 
     performance-based and asset-based management fees are accrued at the end 
     of each reporting period.

     INVESTMENTS

     The Company's investments in Limited Partnerships are accounted for under 
     the equity method (Note 3).

     FIXED ASSETS

     Fixed assets are carried at cost; depreciation and amortization are 
     computed over the estimated useful lives of the assets (five to ten 
     years) using the straight-line method.

     INCOME TAXES

     The Company follows the liability method in accounting for income taxes. 
     The liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities 
     are recorded based on the difference between the tax bases of assets and 
     liabilities and their carrying amount for financial statement purposes; 
     such differences are referred to as temporary differences. The current 
     or deferred tax consequences are measured by applying the provisions of 
     enacted tax laws to determine the amount of taxes payable currently or 
     in future years.

     CASH EQUIVALENTS

     The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a 
     maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

     USE OF ESTIMATES

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally 
     accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and 
     assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities 
     at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of 
     revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could 
     differ from those estimates.

       FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

       financial instruments as defined in Statement of Financial Accounting 
       Standards No. 107 approximate their recorded value.

2.     FIXED ASSETS:

4.     INCOME TAXES:

       The provision for income taxes for 1997, 1996 and 1995 was $0, $5 and
       $50, respectively, and consisted of current taxes resulting from
       differences in reporting for financial statements purposes and tax
       purposes.

       The Company has Subchapter S Corporation status and is therefore exempt
       from federal income tax payments. Taxable federal income is passed
       through to the stockholders of the Company who are taxed based on their
       pro rata shares of the Company's income. Accordingly, no provision for
       federal income taxes is recorded.

       The Company is liable for Massachusetts income taxes at a rate of 4.5%
       for 1997, 1996 and 1995. The stockholders of the Company will also be
       taxed on their pro rata shares of the Company's income.

       Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of (a) temporary
       differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for
       financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax
       purposes, and (b) operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The tax
       effects of significant items comprising the Company's net deferred tax
       liabilities as of November 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995 are as follows:

</TABLE>


       The temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and
       liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for
       income tax purposes primarily relate to accounts receivable, unbilled
       management and performance fees, and accrued salaries and bonuses.


5.     STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY:

       A shareholders' agreement provides for the sale and redemption of the
       Company's stock at its discretion, at prices and payment terms as defined
       therein. The shareholders' agreement provides that the Company will
       redeem the outstanding shares of any shareholder in the event of death or
       termination of the shareholder's employment.

       During 1997, the Company issued 900 shares of nonvoting Class A common
       stock for consideration of $207 in promissory notes. The difference
       between the sale price and the fair value of the issued stock, as
       determined by the formula price defined in the shareholders' agreement,
       was recorded as compensation. This expense aggregated $2.

       During 1996, the Company issued 1,700 shares of nonvoting Class A common
       stock for consideration of $361. The consideration consisted of $119 in
       cash and promissory notes of $242. The difference between the sale price
       and the fair value of the issued stock, as determined by the formula
       price defined in the shareholders' agreement was recorded as
       compensation. This expense aggregated $45.

       During 1995, the Company issued 1,700 shares of nonvoting Class A common
       stock for consideration of $340. The consideration consisted of $216 in
       cash and promissory notes of $124. The difference between the sale price
       and the fair value of the issued stock, as determined by the formula
       price defined in the shareholders' agreement was recorded as
       compensation. This expense aggregated $43.


6.     DIVIDENDS:

       On November 30, 1997, the Board of Directors (the "Board") approved the
       payment of a dividend of $284 for shareholders of record as of November
       30, 1997. The dividend was paid on January 12, 1998.

       On November 30, 1996, the Board of Directors approved the payment of a
       dividend of $350 for shareholders of record as of November 30, 1996. The

       dividend of $169 for shareholders of record as of November 30, 1995. The
       dividend was paid on January 15, 1996.



7.     PENSION AND PROFIT-SHARING PLANS:

       The Company has a qualified, trusteed profit-sharing plan and defined
       contribution pension plan for substantially all employees. The Company's
       annual contributions to the plans as determined by the Board of Directors
       are discretionary, but may not exceed amounts deductible for federal
       income tax purposes. Individual participation in the contributions to the
       plans is based upon the employee's proportionate share of annual
       compensation. For the years ended November 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995, the
       Company's contributions to the plans aggregated approximately $894, $817
       and $802, respectively.

8.     RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

       The Company has investment management agreements with certain Limited
       Partnerships in which it has a general partnership interest (Note 3).
       Certain limited partners of such partnerships are also officers of the
       Company. Under the investment management agreements, the Company receives
       an asset-based fee and a performance-based fee for providing investment
       advice and other services. Beginning in 1997, the performance-based fee
       was replaced with an annual special allocation for all Limited
       Partnerships subject to performance-based fees. For certain Limited
       Partnerships a special allocation was received prior to 1997. The annual
       asset-based fees are based on the net asset values of the partnerships,
       ranging from 1% to 1.5% and are generally billed quarterly. Prior to
       January 1, 1997, the performance fees were billed annually, were
       generally based on either the net change in net assets resulting from
       operations (as defined) or net realized and unrealized capital gains and
       losses, and ranged from 15% to 20% of such amounts. The annual special
       allocation is equal to 15% of the net profits (as defined) of certain of
       the Limited Partnerships and is allocated from the limited partners'
       capital accounts to the general partner's capital account.

       The Company earned performance-based management fees of $395 and $4,348
       for 1996 and 1995, respectively and asset-based management fees of
       $1,621, $1,894 and $1,281 for 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively, from
       such Limited Partnerships. Unbilled performance-based and asset-based
       management fees amounted to $266, $357 and $4,610 at November 30, 1997,
       1996 and 1995, respectively.

       The Company also has an investment management agreement with the New
       Discovery Fund Limited (the "Fund"), of which certain directors of its
       general partner are also officers of the Company. The annual management
       fee for providing investment advice and other services is .25 of 1% of
       the net asset value of the Fund as of the last day of each calendar
       quarter. The annual performance fee is equal to 15% of the net realized
       and unrealized capital gains and losses for the year. The Company earned
       performance fees of $1,147, $652 and $231, and management fees of $747,
       $350 and $191 in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Unbilled
       performance-based and asset-based management fees amounted to $1,213,
       $756 and $274 at November 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

       In addition, the Company provides investment management services to the
       New England Foundation, the trustees of which are also officers of the
       Company. The Company earned $78, $81 and $72 for these services for 1997,
       1996 and 1995, respectively. Unbilled asset-based management fees
       amounted to $13, $13 and $18 at November 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995,
       respectively, and are included in unbilled performance-based and
       asset-based management fees.

b)   Introduction to Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations

     The following tables set forth the unaudited pro forma consolidated 
statements of operations of Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (the "Company") 
for the year ended December 31, 1997 and the three months ended March 31, 
1998, after giving effect to (i) investments made during 1997 (the "Prior 
Investments"); (ii) the recent investment in Essex Investment Management 
Company, LLC (the "Essex Investment") described in the Form 8-K filed 
April 3, 1998; (iii) a 50-for-1 stock split of the Company's Common Stock 
effected in the form of a stock dividend, the exercise of all warrants to 
purchase shares of the Company's convertible preferred stock (the 
"Convertible Preferred Stock") and the conversion of all outstanding shares 
of the Convertible Preferred Stock into Common Stock upon consummation of the 
Offering and the issuance of 78,700 shares of Common Stock to shareholders of 
an Affiliate (the "Recapitalization"); (iv) the Company's initial public 
offering (the "Offering"), completed November 21, 1997; and the application 
of net proceeds therefrom; and (v) the replacement of the Company's credit 
facility completed in December 1997.

     The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations assume 
each of the above transactions occurred on January 1, 1997. No pro forma 
balance sheet has been filed because the Essex Investment is included in the 
Company's March 31, 1998 balance sheet filed in the Company's Form 10-Q filed 
May 15, 1998.

     The accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements 
should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of 
the Company included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year 
ended December 31, 1997 and also the Company's Form 10-Q for the three months 
ended March 31, 1998. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial 
statements have been prepared by the Company based, in part, on the audited 
financial statements of Essex under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, 
which financial statements are not intended to be indicative of the results 
that would have occurred if the transactions had occurred on the dates 
indicated or which may be realized in the future.
