On behalf of BNP U.S. Funding L.L.C. (the "Company"),
we hereby request withdrawal of the above-captioned Registration

Staff's comment letter of March 11, 1998. The Company intends to
refile a new registration statement on Form 10 in response to
such additional Staff comments.
Any questions or comments with respect to this
