1 Organisation
ELMWOOD FUNDING LIMITED (the "Company") was incorporated under the Companies
Law (Revised) of the Cayman Islands on 17 September 1996 as an exempted
company. The Company's operations consist solely of fulfilling its obligations
as depositor, relating to the issue of Bond-backed Investment Certificates
(the "certificates") offered through, and which represent in the aggregate,
the entire beneficial ownership in a trust (the "Trust") formed pursuant to
the Trust Agreement dated as of 14 March 1997 between the Company and the
United States Trust Company, as trustee. The first series of certificates,
Series 1997-AT&T, were issued on 25 March 1997.
The Company has thus surrendered to the Trust all future economic interests in
both the certificates issued and the underlying securities by which they are
collateralised. According to the terms of the trust agreements, the holders
of the certificates can look only to the related collateral held by the Trust
for repayment of both principal and interest. The certificates do not
represent a recourse obligation or interest in the Company and in accordance
with United States generally accepted accounting principles the certificates
and related collateral are not reflected in the accompanying statement of
financial condition.
Each series of certificates represents the entire beneficial ownership
interest in a publicly issued fixed income debt security issued pursuant to an
effective registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, or in a debt security issued, or directly and fully guaranteed or
insured, by the Government of the United States of America, or by any of
certain specified entities controlled or supervised by and acting as an
instrumentality of the Government of the United States of America and exempt
from the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, by reason of Section 3(a)(2)
thereof, or another Federal Statute, or a pool of such debt securities
together with other assets designed to assure the service or timely
distribution of payments to holders of the certificates. These underlying
securities are deposited in a trust for the benefit of holders of certificates
of such series.

2. Significant accounting policies
These unaudited financial statements are prepared in accordance with United
States generally accepted accounting principles. The following are the
significant accounting policies adopted by the Company:
1.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States
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 revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates
3 Fees and expenses
All ongoing fees of the Company are met by the holders of the Retained
Interest and distributed by the trusts (see Note 7). Therefore, these
expenses are not included in the statement of operations.
4 Cash at bank
Cash at bank is comprised of funds on a call account maintained at Deutsche
Bank (Cayman) Limited.
5 Investments
No investments were purchased during the quarter ended 31 March 1999.
6 Bond backed investment certificates
There was no activity for the quarter ended 31 March 1999.

7 Options, rights and retained interests
The holder of the retained interest retains the right to a distribution equal
to the premium of the interest earned on the underlying security over that
paid on the trust certificate subject to payment of ordinary expenses of the
trustee and administration expenses of the Company. The rights of the holder
of the retained interest to the above premium is equal in priority to the
rights of the holders of the certificate to receive interest on the
underlying securities.
8 Financial instruments with off balance sheet risk
The Company's activities are primarily conducted with financial institutions.
In connection with the terms of securitisation transactions, the bond backed
investment certificates together with the underlying securities are held by
the Trust and do not represent obligations of the Company.
9 Share capital
Authorised ....................... 50,000 ordinary shares of US$1.00 each.
Issued and fully paid ..............1,000 ordinary shares of US$1.00 each.
10 Related party transactions
Under the terms of a Declaration of Trust dated 27 September 1996, all of the
issued and fully paid shares have been issued to the Share Trustee, Deutsche
Bank (Cayman) Limited. Pursuant to an administration agreement also dated 27
September 1996, Deutsche Bank (Cayman) Limited provides directors and
administrative services to the Company.

11 Taxation
Under the Cayman Islands Tax Concessions Law (1995 Revision), the
Governor-in-Council of the Cayman Islands issued an undertaking to the
Company on 8 October 1996 exempting it from all local income, profit or
capital gains taxes. The undertaking has been issued for a period of 20 years
and, at the present time, no such taxes are levied in the Cayman Islands.
Accordingly, no provision for taxes on the Company's income in the Cayman
Islands is recorded.

Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations as at 31 March 1999
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Financial condition
There was no activity for the quarter ended 31 March 1999.
Results of operations
In fulfilling its obligations as depositor and pursuant to the Trust Agreement,
the Company has no future economic interest or obligation in relation to the
Certificates issued or the underlying securities transferred to the Trust.
Accordingly no income or expenses have been incurred through the operations of
the Company.
All ongoing fees of the Company are met by the holders of the Retained Interest
and distributed by the trusts. Therefore, these expenses are not included in
the statement of operations.
