1.   Basis of presentation

Accounting Principles - The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles ("GAAP") for and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included.  The results for the period are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year.

The comparative consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1999 has been
derived from the audited consolidated financial statements for the period ended
December 31, 1999.

For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
footnotes included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the period ended
December 31, 1999.

We have reclassified some figures from our 1999 financial statements to conform
with our 2000 presentation.  These reclassifications had no effect on net income
or shareholders' equity as previously reported.

2.   Earnings per ordinary share

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") excludes the dilutive effect of options and
warrants.  Diluted EPS includes the dilutive effect of these securities using
the treasury stock method.  The weighted-average number of shares is calculated
by weighting how long the shares have been outstanding over the accounting
period.

The dilutive impact of our warrants and options is not material and therefore,
has no effect on EPS.

traditional reinsurance, non-traditional reinsurance (previously called

4.   Stock Option Plans

The Company has two stock option plans (the "1998 Plan" and the "1999 Plan")
which allows us to grant non-statutory options, subject to certain restrictions,
to certain eligible employees, non-employee Directors, advisors and consultants.
The minimum exercise price of the options will be equal to the fair market
value, as defined in the plans, of our ordinary shares at the date of grant. The
term of the options shall not be more than ten years from the date of grant.
Unless otherwise provided in the option agreement, the options shall become
exercisable in three equal annual installments, commencing on the first
anniversary of the grant date.

Option activity under the 1998 Plan is as follows:

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
          Results of Operations

General

Scottish Annuity & Life Holdings, Ltd. ("Scottish Holdings", "we", "us", "our",
or "the Company") completed its initial public offering ("IPO") on November 30,
1998. Our principal assets include the ownership of Scottish Annuity & Life
Insurance Company (Cayman) Ltd. ("Scottish Insurance"), Scottish Re (U.S.), Inc.
("Scottish Re") (formerly Harbourton Reassurance, Inc.), and The Scottish
Annuity Company (Cayman) Ltd. ("Scottish Annuity").  Scottish Insurance was
formed in 1998 as an offshore company principally to provide reinsurance of life
and annuity products and to issue customized variable life insurance products to
high net worth individuals and families. Scottish Annuity provides customized
variable annuity products to high net worth individuals and families. Scottish
Re, a Delaware insurance company, which is licensed in 15 states and admitted as
a reinsurer in an additional 8 states, provides us with a U.S. based platform to
provide reinsurance products.


Overview

Our net income for the quarter of $2,030,652 or $0.13 per share was driven by
revenues from our investment portfolio, reinsurance operations, and insurance
administration fees. Net income, when compared to the prior year, changed due to
various factors: (1) Investment income, net increased from $3,321,252 to
$9,765,138 as a result of invested assets from reinsurance growing from $0 to
over $350 million, (2) Realized losses on securities, net in the first quarter
of 1999 of $963,914 were primarily due to portfolio restructuring, whereas no
restructuring was done in the first quarter of 2000, (3) Insurance
administration and variable life fees increased from $225,785 to $449,572 due
primarily to increases in variable account balances and the purchase of Scottish
Annuity, resulting in 100% of the fee income reverting to us, (4) Claims and
other policy benefits were $0 in the first quarter of 1999 and $5,275,603 in the
first quarter of 2000 as a result of new reinsurance treaties, and (5)
Acquisition costs and other insurance expenses increased from $225,100 to
$1,114,177 and operating expenses increased from $710,898 to $1,639,367 as a
result of increased reinsurance activity and the implementation of our U.S.
reinsurance operations through Scottish Re.

Investments

Our investment portfolio is managed by two professional investment managers,
General Re - New England Asset Management, Inc. and Prudential Investment
Corporation. Our investment guidelines are designed to diversify the portfolio
to maximize investment income while minimizing risk.  At March 31, 2000, the
portfolio had an average quality rating of AA, an average duration of 2.76 years
and an average book yield of 6.79%.  This compares with an average quality
rating of AA, an average duration of 2.98 years and an average book yield of
6.79%  respectively at December 31, 1999. A realized loss of $127,657 and net
unrealized depreciation of $174,573 were recognized on investments during the
quarter.

Insurance Operations

Our business consists of three lines of business: traditional, non-traditional
and variable products.  Our results reflected revenues from these lines of
business. Since January 1, 2000, we closed on the Lincoln National Life
reinsurance transaction, whereby we reinsure 50% of new fixed annuities written
by Lincoln and sold through financial institutions.  We expect approximately
$150 million of assumed reserves under this contract in 2000.  We also signed
binders for traditional life reinsurance with two significant writers of life
insurance, expected to create approximately $5 to $7 billion of life reinsurance
and $9 million of collected premium during 2000.  Finally, we signed one
additional binder covering a block of pre-need business that is expected to
produce $40 million of assumed reserves, and have several other deals pending.
However, no assurance can be given that these expectations can be achieved.  We
also received $7.2 million of deposits from variable life sales in the quarter.

                Condition and Results of Operations (continued)


Capital Resources and Liquidity

At March 31, 2000, total capitalization was $219,723,739. We have no material
commitments for capital expenditures and do not anticipate incurring material
indebtedness other than letters of credit or lines of credit, which may be
required in the ordinary course of our reinsurance business.

During the quarter we paid a dividend of $802,337 to shareholders of record as
of March 6, 2000.

We expect that our cash and investments, together with cash generated from our
businesses, will provide sufficient sources of liquidity and capital to meet our
needs for the next several years.  In addition, we have access to a combined $70
million through available lines and letters of credit, none of which have been
utilized to date.
