Item 5.   Other Events

          The tables attached hereto as Exhibit 19.1 (the "Updated Tables")
update the tables contained on pages 37 through 41 (the "Original Tables") of
the Mellon Bank Premium Finance Loan Master Trust Prospectus, dated December 12,
1996 (the "Prospectus"), which forms a part of the Registration Statement on
Form S-3, No. 333-11961. The "Geographic Concentration" table appearing on pages
38 and 39 of the Prospectus has been updated to reflect the fact that additional
states became Permitted States and that address changes for insureds have
occurred. The table under the caption "Loan Loss Experience" has been updated to
set forth loss experience for the Identified Portfolio for the year ended
December 31, 1997 and for the five month period ended May 31, 1998. The table
under the caption "Loan Delinquency Experience Following Cancellation" has been
updated to add a new table to show delinquency experience for the Identified
Portfolio for the twelve month period ended December 31, 1997 and the five month
period ended May 31, 1998. The table under the caption "Originators' Portfolio
Yield" has been updated to add a new table to show portfolio yield information
for the Identified Portfolio for the twelve month period ended December 31, 1997
and the five month period ended May 31, 1998. Capitalized but undefined terms
used herein have the meanings set forth in the Prospectus.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

         Net charge offs, as an annualized percentage of the average outstanding
 principal balance of loans in the Identified Portfolio, increased to .43% for
the five month period ended May 31, 1998 from 0.16% for the twelve months ended
December 31, 1997. This increase resulted from two factors.

        First, the Servicer's policy is generally to charge off loans if
uncollected 270 days after cancellation of the related insurance policy. As a
result, in any period the annualized percentage of charge-offs is affected by
the delinquency profile of loans in the pool at the beginning of the period. A
beginning of period pool characterized by delinquencies which are relatively low
in number and/or of relatively short duration will tend to have, all other
things being equal, a relatively lower annualized percentage of charge-offs in
the period. The Identified Portfolio was initially constituted in December, 1996
with a bulk transfer of loans to the Trust. One of the requirements for the
loans to be transferred was that the loans could not at the time of transfer
have been delinquent for more than thirty days. Consequently, the Identified
Portfolio at the beginning of the twelve month period ended December 31, 1997
(approximately two weeks after the initial transfer of loans to the Trust),
contained a relatively low proportion of loans delinquent for more than thirty
days. By comparison, the delinquency profile of the loans in the Identified
Portfolio at the beginning of the five month period ended May 31, 1998 was not
so affected by a bulk transfer of non-delinquent loans shortly prior to the
beginning of the period. As a consequence, the annualized net charge-off
percentage for the latter period increased.

          The increase in the annualized net charge-off percentage also resulted
from lower originations of new loans which, when compared to charge-offs
resulting in part from higher originations in the prior period, yielded a higher
charge-off percentage; economic pressures affecting the insurance industry,
which have resulted in insurance companies being more assertive in resisting
making unearned premium refunds; the utilization of new insurance agents and
increased extended payment terms, which have resulted in increased risk of
nonpayment; and higher levels of borrower bankruptcies, which have contributed
to increased charge-offs.

          In the accompanying table "Originators' Portfolio Yield/Identified
Portfolio", the Average Outstanding Principal Balance Receivables for the five
month period ended May 31, 1998 do not include amounts held on deposit during
such period in the Excess Funding Account, and the Interest and Fee Income does
not include earnings on amounts so held on deposit. Funds were deposited in the
Excess Funding Account in January, March, April and May, 1998 for the purpose of
maintaining the required Minimum Transferor Interest under the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement. If the amounts so held on deposit and the earnings on such
amounts had been included in the table, the Average Revenue Yield for the five
month period ended May 31, 1998 would have been 11.41% as compared to 11.54% set
forth in the accompanying "Originators' Portfolio Yield/Identified Portfolio"
table.
