                   IBW FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note A  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of IBW Financial
Corporation and Subsidiary (the Company) have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and
with the instructions to Form 10-QSB.  Accordingly, they do not include all the
information and footnotes required for complete financial statements.  In the
opinion of management, all adjustments and reclassifications, of a normal and
recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included.  Operating results for the nine  month period ended September 30,
1997, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ended December 31, 1997.  These unaudited consolidated financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and
footnotes included in the Company's Annual Report to Shareholders for the year
ended December 31, 1996.

Note B  ACCOUNTING CHANGES

Effective January 1,1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 125, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial
Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities, except for the provisions that were
delayed by SFAS No. 127, Deferral of the Effective Date of Certain Provisions of
Certain Provisions of FASB Statement No. 125, an Amendment of FASB Statement No.
125.  The adoption of this new accounting standard did not have a material
impact on the financial statements of the Company.

Note C  NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

In March 1997, the Financial Accounting standards Board issued SFAS No. 128,
Earnings Per Share ("EPS"), which simplifies the standards for computing EPS
previously found in Accounting Board Principals Opinion No. 15, Earnings Per
Share.  SFAS No. 128 is effective for financial statements issued for periods
ending after December 15, 1997.  If SFAS No. 128 had been effective for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, earnings per share would have been
presented as follows:

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

AS OF AND FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)

     Forward looking statements.  This discussion contains forward looking
statements within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, including statements of goals, intentions, and expectations as to
future trends, plans, events or results of Company operations and policies and
regarding general economic conditions.  These statements are based upon current
and anticipated economic conditions, nationally and in the Company's market,
interest rates and interest rate policy, competitive factors and other
conditions which, by their nature, are not susceptible to accurate forecast, and
are subject to significant uncertainty.  Because of these uncertainties and the
assumptions on which this discussion and the forward looking statements are
based, actual future operations and results in the future may differ materially
from those indicated herein.  Readers are cautioned against placing undue
reliance on any such forward looking statement.  The Company does not undertake
to update any forward looking statement to reflect occurrences or events which
may not have been anticipated as of the date of such statements.

Overview

     IBW Financial Corporation's net income for the nine months ended of 1997
totaled $1,053, an increase of $36, or 3.5% from the comparable period of 1996.
This increase is primarily attributed to an increase of $736 in net interest
income, an increase of $447 in noninterest income, offset by an increase in the
provision for loan losses of $615, an increase of $502 in noninterest expenses
and an increase of $30 in income taxes.  Return on average assets (ROAA), and
return on average shareholder's equity (ROAE) for the nine months ended  of 1997
and 1996 were .58% and 8.01%, .59% and 8.38%, respectively.

     On September 29, 1997, the Company completed the sale of 31,200 shares of
its common stock and 20,000 shares of its Series A Non-Voting Preferred Stock,
in a private placement transaction, to the Federal National Mortgage Association
("Fannie Mae"), at a price of $25.00 per share of common stock and $25.00 per
share of Series A Non-Voting Preferred Stock, for a total purchase price of
$1,280,000.  The shares of common stock issued to Fannie Mae represent
approximately 4.67% of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock, and
the shares of Series A Non-Voting Preferred Stock represent all of the
authorized shares of that series.

     The Company has contributed $980,000 of the proceeds of the sale to
Industrial Bank, National Association, Oxon Hill, Maryland, the wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company, for use in connection with its mortgage and housing
related lending operations, and the promotion of affordable housing in its
market area.  The remaining proceeds will be retained at the Company for general
corporate purposes.

     Under the stock purchase agreement, the Company is restricted from taking
any action, including the repurchase, redemption or other reduction in the
number of outstanding shares of capital stock, but not including the incurrence
of losses, which would result in the value of the Shares representing 10% or
more of the equity of the Company, or the shares of common stock sold to Fannie
Mae representing 5% or more of the outstanding common stock.  The Company has
certain rights under the agreement to repurchase the Shares under certain
circumstances.


NET INTEREST INCOME

     During the nine months ended September 30, 1997, net interest income
increased $736, or 9.3% over the comparable period in 1996.  Interest and fees
on loans increased by $846, or 12.2%, reflecting higher levels of loans.
Interest on securities increased $432, or 9.8%, reflecting higher levels of
mortgage backed securities

                                      -6-
<PAGE>
 
and obligations of states and political subdivisions, and lower levels of U.S.
Treasury securities.  Interest on federal funds sold and other interest earning
assets declined $180, or 30.5%, from the 1996 comparable period, reflecting
lower levels of federal funds sold.  Interest expense increased $362, or 9.0%,
attributed primarily to a higher volume of repurchase agreements which were
initiated late in the first quarter of 1996.  Interest expense related to
deposits declined $126, while interest expense related to repurchase agreements
increased $488.  On a tax-equivalent basis, net interest income for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 increased $829, or 10.2%, over the comparable
period in 1996.  The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in
average interest-earning assets, an increase in the net interest spread and
partially offset by an increase in average interest-bearing liabilities.
Average interest-earning assets increased by $14.2 million, or 6.7%, comprised
principally of growth in loans of $13.1 million and nontaxable securities of
$4.4 million, partially offset by a decrease in the level of federal funds sold
of $5.6 million.

     The interest rate spread increased 15 basis points from 4.43% for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996 to 4.58% for The nine months ended September 30,
1997.  This increase is primarily attributed to an increase in the average rate
earned on interest-earning assets, except for loans, partially offset by the 7
basis point increase in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities.

     Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $10.9 million, or 6.7%, due
to an increase in time deposits and borrowings, partially offset by a decrease
in average interest-bearing demand and savings deposits.  Average borrowings
(comprised of repurchase agreements and the note payable) increased $14.0
million.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

     The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses to absorb losses on
existing loans and commitments that may become uncollectible.  The provision for
loan losses increased $615 for the nine months of 1997, to $915, from $300 for
the nine  months ended September 30, 1996.  The increase in the provision for
loan losses is attributable primarily to the continued large level of
nonperforming assets and loans with possible credit problems.  Overall,
nonperforming assets declined to $3.7 million compared to $4.6 million at year
end 1996, due principally to the disposal of a large OREO property with a net
carrying cost of $460.  Nonperforming assets to gross loans and foreclosed
properties and nonperforming assets to total assets declined from 4.1% and 1.9%,
respectively at year-end 1996 to 3.2% and 1.5%, respectively at September 30,
1997.

NONINTEREST INCOME

     Noninterest income increased $447, or 23.4%, to $2,354 for September 1997
compared to $1,907 for June 1996.  The increase is attributable primarily to
service charges on deposit and checking accounts, which increased $490.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

     Noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30,  1997 increased
$502, or 6.2%, over comparable period of 1996.  This increase is attributed
primarily to an increase of $284 in other expenses, an increase of $84 in
salaries and benefits, and an increase of $75 in data processing cost.  The
increase in other expenses were principally attributed to an increase of $142 in
professional service fees, an increase of $105 in advertising expenses, and an
increase of $123 in loan collection expenses including a $33 increase in
provision for OREO.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

     The provision for income taxes for 1997 increased $30 to $375, or 8.7%,
from the comparable period of 1996, due primarily to an increase in income
before income taxes.

FINANCIAL OVERVIEW

     Total assets increased $13.0 million, or 5.5%, from December 31, 1996 to
September 30, 1997, mainly due to an increase in securities of $11.8 million, an
increase in loans of $5.7 million, partially offset by a decrease in cash and
cash equivalents of $4.2 million, and other real estate owned of $577.  The
increase in assets was primarily funded by the growth of repurchase agreements
of $11.2 million, partially offset by a decrease of $1.5 million in deposits.
Total shareholders' equity increased $2.5 million due primarily to: (a) an
increase of $31 in common stock, an increase of $729 in capital surplus, and an
increase of $500 in preferred stock as a result of the stock purchase by FNMA;
(b) an increase in retained earnings of $862; and (c) an increase in the
unrealized gain on available-for-sale securities of $403.  Dividends of  $191
were paid during the second quarter of 1997.

     The carrying value of the Company's securities portfolio, all of which is
classified as available-for-sale, increased 12.5% from $94.8 million at December
31, 1996 to $107.0 million at September 30, 1997.  This growth was centered
specifically in mortgage-backed securities, which increased from $50.4 million
to $59.9 million.  The mortgage-backed securities portfolio had a weighted-
average remaining maturity of 2.33 years at September 30, 1997 compared to 2.73
years at December 31, 1996.  The collateral underlying all the mortgage-backed
securities is guaranteed by one of the "Quasi-Governmental" agencies, and
therefore maintains a risk weight of 20% for risk-based capital purposes.
Management's analysis of mortgage-related securities includes, but is not
limited to, the average lives, seasonality, coupon and historic behavior
(including prepayment history) of each particular security over its life, as
affected by various interest rate environments.  Stress tests are performed on
each security on a quarterly basis as part of management's ongoing analysis.
There are no issuers of securities held by the Company the securities of which
have a book value in excess of 10% of shareholders' equity.

     The allowance for loan losses was $1.9 million at September 30, 1997
compared to $1.3 million at December 31, 1996.  The ratio of allowance for
possible loan losses to total loans increased to 1.66% at September 30, 1997
from 1.15% at year-end 1996.  The increase in the level of the allowance for
loan losses as a percentage of ending loans reflects the increase in potential
problem loans.  At September 30, 1997, non-performing assets to total assets
decreased to 1.48% compared to 1.94% at December 31, 1996.

     The level of the allowance for loan losses is determined by management on
the basis of various assumptions and judgments. These include levels and trends
of past due and non-accrual loans, trends in volume and changes in terms,
effects of policy changes, experience and depth of management, anticipated
economic conditions in the Washington, DC metropolitan area, concentrations of
credit, the composition of the loan portfolio, prior loan loss experience, and
the ongoing and periodic reviews of the loan portfolio by the Company's internal
and external loan review function.  For impaired loans, the Company establishes
reserves in accordance with SFAS 114 and SFAS 118, and for non-impaired loans
uses an allocation approach which relies on historical loan loss experience,
adjusted to reflect current conditions and trends.

     Although management believes that it uses the best information available to
make such determinations that the allowance for loan losses is adequate as of
the dates shown, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary, and net
income could be significantly affected, if circumstances and/or economic
conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the initial
determinations.  Any downturn in the real estate market or general economic
conditions in the Washington, DC metropolitan area could result in the Company
experiencing increased levels of non-performing assets and charge-offs,
significant provisions for loan losses, and significant reductions in net
income.  Additionally, various regulatory agencies periodically review the
Company's allowance for loan losses.  Such agencies may require the recognition
of additions to the allowance based on their judgments of information available
to them at the time of their examination.  In light of the foregoing, there can
be no assurance that management's determinations as to the future adequacy of
the allowance for loan losses will prove accurate, or that additional provisions
or charge-offs will not be required.

     The following table sets forth information concerning non-performing
assets.

</TABLE>

1.   Loans are placed on non-accrual status when in the opinion of management
     the collection of additional interest is unlikely or a specific loan meets
     the criteria for non-accrual status established by regulatory authorities.
     No interest is taken into income on non-accrual loans unless received in
     cash.  A loan remains on non-accrual status until the loan is current to
     both principal and interest and the borrower demonstrates the ability to
     pay and remain current, or the loan becomes well secured and is in the
     process of collection.  The gross interest income that would have been
     recorded in the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and the year ended
     December 31, 1996 for non-accrual loans at September 30, 1997 and December
     31, 1996 had the loans been current in accordance with their original terms
     was $166  and $101, respectively.

2.   The Bank charges loans against the allowance for loan losses when it
     determines that principal and interest or portions thereof become
     uncollectible.  This is determined through an analysis of each individual
     credit, including the financial condition and repayment capacity of the
     borrower, and of the sufficiency of the collateral, if any.


     At September 30, 1997, there were $9,146 of loans not reflected in the
table above, where known information about possible credit problems of borrowers
caused management to have doubts as to the ability of the borrower to comply
with present loan repayment terms and that may result in disclosure of such
loans in the future.  Included in the total are twenty loans totalling $4,719
fully collateralized by real estate, three of which represent $2,565 of the
total. The remaining $4,427 consists of sixteen commercial loans, three of which
represent $2,383, secured primarily by accounts receivable and various business
equipment.

          On September 29, 1997, the Company completed the sale of 31,200 shares
     of its common stock and 20,000 shares of its Series A Non-Voting Preferred
     Stock, in a private placement transaction, to the Federal National Mortgage

     taking any action, including the repurchase, redemption or other reduction
     in the number of outstanding shares of capital stock, but not including the
     incurrence of losses, which would result in the value of the Shares
     representing 10% or more of the equity of the Company, or the shares of
     common stock sold to Fannie Mae representing 5% or more of the outstanding
     common stock.  The Company has certain rights under the agreement to
