NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accounting and financial reporting policies of The Chase Manhattan
Corporation ("Chase") conform to generally accepted accounting principles
("GAAP") and prevailing industry practices for interim reporting. Additionally,
where applicable, the policies conform to the accounting and reporting
guidelines prescribed by bank regulatory authorities. The unaudited consolidated
financial statements prepared in conformity with GAAP require management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenue and expense and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities. In the opinion of management, all necessary adjustments have been
included for a fair presentation of this interim financial information. Certain
amounts in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current
presentation.
NOTE 2 - SECURITIES
For a discussion of the accounting policies relating to securities, see Note One
of Chase's 1998 Annual Report.
Net gains from available-for-sale securities sold in the first quarters of 1999
and 1998 amounted to $156 million (gross gains of $211 million and gross losses
of $55 million) and to $83 million (gross gains of $134 million and gross losses
of $51 million), respectively. There were no sales of held-to-maturity
securities in the periods presented.
The amortized cost and estimated fair value of securities, including the impact
of related derivatives, were as follows for the dates indicated:

("ALM"). For a discussion of the various financial instruments used and the
credit and market risks involved, see Note Nineteen of Chase's 1998 Annual
Report.
The following table summarizes the aggregate notional amounts of derivative and
foreign exchange contracts as well as the credit exposure related to these
instruments (after taking into account the effects of legally enforceable master

Item 1. (continued)
NOTE 10 - SEGMENT INFORMATION
Effective December 31, 1998, Chase adopted SFAS 131 which defines the criteria
by which management determines the number and nature of its "operating segments"
and sets forth the financial information that is required to be disclosed about
these operating segments.
Chase's businesses are organized into three major franchises (segments): Global
Bank, National Consumer Services ("NCS") and Chase Technology Solutions ("CTS"),
which includes Global Services. These franchises are based on the nature of the
products and services provided, the type or class of customer, and Chase's
management organization.
Chase uses SVA, Operating Earnings and Cash Operating Earnings as its measures
of franchise profitability. For a discussion of these measurements, see
Management Performance Measurements in the Management's Discussion and Analysis
("MD&A") on page 19 and Note Twenty-three of the 1998 Annual Report. The

================================================================================
Operating diluted earnings per share were $1.32 in the first quarter of 1999,
compared to $1.17 per share in the first quarter of 1998. Reported diluted
earnings per share were $1.32 in the 1999 first quarter and $.80 in the first
quarter of 1998. Operating earnings and reported net income were each $1.17
billion in the first quarter of 1999, compared with $1.05 billion and $725
million, respectively, in the first quarter of 1998.
Operating highlights for first quarter of 1999 included:
- Operating revenue increased 10% to $5.4 billion.
- Operating EPS increased by 13% to $1.32.
- Shareholder Value Added ("SVA") increased 17% to $501 million.
- Return on common equity was 21%.
- Chase repurchased approximately $885 million of common stock, on a
net basis, in the quarter. Even so, the Tier 1 capital ratio rose to
8.4%.
Chase's first quarter results reflected double-digit growth in revenues,
earnings per share and shareholder value. Driving these results were the
strength and diversity of Chase's businesses and a disciplined approach to risk
and capital management. Chase's management continues to reaffirm its belief in
the strength and sustainability of earnings from Chase's diverse business mix.
Each of Chase's major business franchises is at scale, and maintains leadership
positions in its line of business. As a result, Chase's operating revenues
increased 10% in the 1999 first quarter, despite lower investment banking fees
and weaker results in Global Services. Trading-related revenue reached a record
high of $837 million. Credit costs remained stable in the first quarter: credit
card net charge-offs improved from the 1998 fourth quarter, and financial
conditions in Asia and Latin America have stabilized since the 1998 year-end. At
March 31, 1999, total assets on Chase's balance sheet declined by $4.6 billion
from the 1998 year-end, and Tier 1 capital and Total capital ratios increased to
8.4% and 12.2%, respectively, reflecting Chase's continued focus on SVA and
capital management.
This Management's Discussion and Analysis contains certain forward-looking
statements, including without limitation, statements related to credit, market
and operating risk. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and
uncertainties and Chase's actual results may differ materially from those
included in these statements. Reference is made to Chase's reports filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission, in particular the 1998 Annual Report,
for a discussion of factors that may cause such differences to occur. See

GLOBAL BANK
Global Bank combines the strengths of a leading commercial bank and a leading
investment bank to meet the needs of corporations, institutions, governments and
wealthy individuals around the world. With operations in approximately 50
countries, including major operations in all key international financial
centers, Global Bank integrates a broad range of leading product capabilities,
industry knowledge and geographic reach to produce superior customer solutions.
Global Bank first quarter 1999 operating revenues rose $202 million, an increase
of 8% from first quarter 1998, due to increases in trading-related revenue,
securities gains and private equity gains. Cash operating earnings and SVA for
the first quarter 1999 increased $83 million and $75 million, respectively, over
the first quarter 1998.
The following table sets forth certain key financial performance measures of the
businesses within Global Bank.

================================================================================
Global Markets
Global Markets' activities are diverse, by product and geography, and encompass
the trading and sale of foreign exchange, derivatives, fixed income securities
and commodities. Chase operates 24 hours a day covering the major international
cross-border financial markets, as well as many local markets. Also included
within Global Markets are Chase's domestic and international treasury units,
which have the primary responsibility for managing Chase's interest rate risk
exposures and investment securities activities. Treasury results are managed on
a total return basis with one of the primary objectives being the creation of
economic value over time. Total return combines reported revenues (net interest
income and securities gains/losses) and the change in the net unrealized
appreciation/depreciation of all financial instruments and underlying balance
sheet items.
Trading-related revenue for the first quarter of 1999 was a record $837 million,
an increase of 21% from the 1998 first quarter. Results reflect a strong
performance in traditional products, including interest rate derivatives, and
newer products, such as equity derivatives. Securities gains realized during the
first quarter were $156 million, an 88% increase over first quarter 1998
results. The total return (pretax before expenses) from interest rate risk
management activities amounted to $251 million for the first quarter of 1999,
compared with $86 million in the first quarter of 1998.

<PAGE> 14
Global Investment Banking
Global Investment Banking advises corporations, financial institutions,
financial sponsors and governments by providing integrated one-stop financial
solutions and industry expertise to clients globally. Chase's corporate finance
client base is extensive and is managed through global client industry groups.
Product offerings encompass syndicated finance, high yield securities, mergers
and acquisitions advisory, project finance, real estate advisory and placement,
restructuring and private placements. Chase is the largest provider of U.S.
corporate debt, with a major presence in both the public and private debt
markets, and has built a strong presence in the advisory area by leveraging its
debt market leadership.
Global Investment Banking operating revenues for the first three months of 1999
decreased by $130 million, or 37%, to $220 million when compared with the same
quarter in 1998. The revenue decrease reflects lower investment banking fees due
to an overall market decline in leveraged financings and lower trading results
on high yield securities.
Corporate Lending
Corporate Lending provides credit and lending services to clients globally
within a strategy that emphasizes origination for distribution. An active
portfolio management effort is an integral part of corporate lending activities
and is focused on managing concentrations by product, borrower, risk grade,
industry and geography. The use of SVA for product and customer decisions
resulted in higher spreads on retained assets and the disposition of
less-SVA-attractive loans. Management expects to continue to manage commercial
loans for shareholder value rather than revenue growth. Revenues and cash
operating earnings increased 8% and 24%, respectively, for the 1999 first
quarter when compared with the same 1998 period.
Chase Capital Partners
Chase Capital Partners ("CCP") is one of the largest global private equity
organizations with approximately $7.1 billion under management, including $4.3
billion in direct equity and equity-related investments and $1.4 billion in fund
investments. CCP provides equity and mezzanine financing for a wide variety of
investment opportunities in the United States and, to a lesser extent, abroad.
For the first three months of 1999, CCP's direct investments totaled
approximately $312 million in 15 venture capital, management buyout,
recapitalization, growth equity and mezzanine transactions, compared with
approximately $371 million in 34 direct investments for the first quarter of
1998. Earnings reflected continued strength in the equity markets, a favorable
environment for technology initial public offerings (IPOs) and the positive
impact of maturing investments within the portfolio, partially offset by higher
costs to support a higher level of investments.
Global Private Bank
The Global Private Bank serves a global client base of high net worth
individuals and families, offering a full range of private banking services as
well as access to the broad product capabilities of the Global Bank. Services
include investment management, global capital market products and services, risk
management, alternative investments such as private equity funds, trust and
estate planning, global custody, mutual funds, credit and banking, and
philanthropic advisory services. Revenues increased 4% from the 1998 first
quarter reflecting double digit growth in the U.S., particularly in investment
management and trust fees, offset by lower revenues in selected international
markets.
Middle Markets
Chase is the premier provider of financial services to middle-market companies
(companies with sales ranging from $10 million to $500 million) regionally, with
a national focus in selected industries. It is the market leader in the New York
metropolitan tri-state area. Cash operating earnings decreased slightly in the
1999 first quarter, reflecting lower spreads and an increase in expenses.

<PAGE> 15
NATIONAL CONSUMER SERVICES
National Consumer Services ("NCS") serves more than 30 million customers
nationwide offering a wide variety of financial products and services through a
diverse array of channels. Characterized by significant scale, and operating
under the strong Chase brand, NCS combines nationwide presence with a leading
consumer and small business banking franchise in the New York metropolitan
tri-state region and key Texas markets. NCS's strategy is driven by information
technology, which provides insights into customer behavior, requirements and
preferences, and enables the franchise to develop financial solutions that best
meet customer needs.
Cash operating earnings for the first quarter of 1999 increased $63 million, or
22%, over the same period in 1998. Revenue growth of 12% contributed to the
increase in cash operating earnings and reflects higher revenues and volumes
across all of NCS's businesses. SVA increased $62 million, or 86%, in the first
three months of 1999 from the same period in 1998.
The following table sets forth certain key financial performance measures of the
businesses within NCS.

================================================================================
Chase Cardmember Services
Chase Cardmember Services ("CCS") ranks as the fourth-largest bank card issuer
in the United States. CCS also reflects the results of Chase's international
consumer business, which includes Chase Manhattan Card Company Limited, the
third largest credit card issuer in Hong Kong, as well as consumer banking
activities in Hong Kong, Panama and the Eastern Caribbean. CCS's operating
revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1999 were $1.0 billion,
representing an 8% increase from the first quarter 1998, reflecting increased
purchase volume and the positive impact of pricing initiatives starting in the
1998 second quarter. Cash operating earnings reflect a higher level of marketing
expense.
Regional Consumer Banking
Regional Consumer Banking has a leading share of primary bank relationships
among consumers and small businesses in the New York metropolitan tri-state
area. It is also a leading retail institution in key Texas markets. Regional
Consumer Banking offers customers convenient access to financial services
through their choice of distribution channels, including the largest branch and
proprietary ATM networks in the New York metropolitan region, plus
state-of-the-art telephone, PC and Internet services. For the first quarter
1999, cash operating earnings increased 25% to $101 million, compared with the
same period in 1998, benefiting from higher net interest income and increased
fee income as a result of strong performance of the Chase debit banking card.
-15-
<PAGE> 16
Chase Home Finance
Chase Home Finance serves more than 2 million customers nationwide and is the
largest originator and third-largest servicer of residential mortgage loans in
the U.S. It is also a leading provider of home-equity secured lending and
manufactured housing financing. During the first three months of 1999, $28
billion in residential first-mortgage loans, home-equity and manufactured
housing financing were originated, a 73% increase over the same period last
year. Chase Home Finance's servicing portfolio increased 27% from first quarter
1998 and totaled $226 billion at March 31, 1999. Operating revenues rose 13% in
the first quarter of 1999 compared with the first quarter of 1998 due to higher
origination volume and servicing balances. Partially offsetting this increase in
operating revenue was lower net interest income as a result of higher funding
costs associated with the increase in servicing balances. Cash operating
earnings decreased 2% in the first three months of 1999, reflecting higher
expenses stemming from greater business volume and technology investments.
Diversified Consumer Services
Diversified Consumer Services ("DCS") is the largest bank originator of auto
loans and leases in the United States and a leading provider of student loans
and unsecured consumer lending. In addition to its financing activities, DCS
offers brokerage services and investment products nationwide and is one of the
most diversified bank insurance providers in the U.S. During the first quarter
1999, auto finance originations were strong, increasing 14% when compared to the
same period in 1998. At March 31, 1999, Chase Auto Finance had $23 billion in
managed loans and $18 billion in balance sheet receivables. Cash operating
earnings for DCS in the first quarter of 1999, were driven by the strong growth
in auto finance and by higher revenues in Chase's investment and insurance
businesses. Also included in revenues was a gain on a sale of a student loan
portfolio.
CHASE TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS
Chase Technology Solutions ("CTS") is composed of Chase's Global Services
businesses, Information Technology and Operations, and Electronic Commerce
initiatives. Global Services is a leading provider of information and
transaction services globally and includes custody and other investor services,
treasury and cash management, trade finance, debt, agency and other fiduciary
services. As the world's largest provider of global custody and a leader in
trust and agency services, Global Services was custodian for over $5.0 trillion
in assets and serviced over $3.0 trillion in outstanding debt at March 31, 1999.
Global Services also operates the largest U.S. dollar funds transfer business in
the world and is a market leader in FedWire, ACH and CHIPS volume.
For the three months ended March 31, 1999, cash operating earnings and SVA for
Global Services decreased $5 million and $29 million, respectively, when
compared with the same period in 1998. Revenue growth increased 9% in the first
quarter 1999, driven by acquisitions and growth in core custody products.
Revenue growth was negatively affected by a decline in balance-related revenues,
the revaluation and reallocation of investment portfolios from emerging to
developed markets, and by a reduction in structured financings. Expenses in the
quarter grew more than revenues, reflecting ongoing investment spending and
costs related to Year 2000. Management anticipates that over the remainder of
1999, Global Services operating results should improve when compared to the
current quarter, primarily as a result of expense discipline and increasing
revenues from rebounding financial markets.
CORPORATE
Corporate includes Chase's Global Asset Management and Mutual Funds business,
which provides investment management for institutional investors globally and
manages the Chase Global Mutual Funds. Total assets under management amounted to
$208 billion at March 31, 1999. Corporate also includes Chase Business Services,
the shared services company created in 1998, and the effects remaining at the
Corporate level after the implementation of management accounting policies such
as credit provision and tax expense. For the three months ended March 31, 1999,
Corporate had a cash operating loss (including the non-Global Services portion
of CTS) of $62 million compared with a cash operating loss of $53 million in the
first quarter of 1998.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following section provides a discussion of Chase's results of operations as
reported under generally accepted accounting principles as well as on the
operating basis that is used by management in measuring Chase's financial
performance.
To further facilitate its analysis of Chase's financial results, management
categorizes Chase's revenue components as market-sensitive revenues or as
less-market-sensitive revenues. Market-sensitive revenues include trading
revenues (including trading-related net interest income), investment banking
fees, securities gains and private equity gains. The remaining revenue
components of the income statement are categorized as less-market-sensitive
revenue.

other revenue).

MARKET-SENSITIVE REVENUE
Market-sensitive revenues are, in management's view, typically more sensitive to
changes in general market conditions than those revenue components management
considers as less-market-sensitive. While components of market-sensitive
revenues experience volatility (particularly on a quarter-to-quarter basis),
over the past ten years total market-sensitive revenue has increased at a
compound annual growth rate ("CAGR") of 14% and has exhibited limited annual
volatility around the regression trendline.
For the first quarter, market-sensitive revenues in 1999 increased 14% over
1998, reflecting increases in trading-related revenues and securities gains. A
discussion of the components within market-sensitive revenue is presented below.
Investment Banking Fees
Investment banking fees were $317 million, 12 percent lower than in the same
1998 quarter, reflecting the overall market decline in leveraged financings,
offset in part by stronger fees in mergers and acquisitions advisory activity
and investment grade bond underwriting. Chase continues to be a leading provider
of corporate debt, ranking first in global loan syndications, while improving
its market share in public debt underwriting. Management anticipates that
revenues from Investment Banking should rebound next quarter, as a result of
increased leveraged financing activities.
Trading-Related Revenue
Trading revenues and related net interest income rose 21 percent to $837
million, a new record, benefiting from strong performance in traditional
products, including interest rate derivatives, and newer products, such as
equity derivatives.

(a) Trading-related net interest income includes interest recognized on
interest-earning and interest-bearing trading-related positions as well as
management allocations reflecting the funding cost or benefit associated
with trading positions. This amount is included in net interest income on
the Consolidated Statement of Income.
(b) Includes interest rate swaps, cross-currency interest rate swaps, foreign

(c) Includes foreign exchange spot and option contracts.
(d) Includes U.S. and foreign government and government agency securities,
corporate debt instruments, emerging markets debt instruments,
debt-related derivatives, equity securities, equity derivatives and
commodity derivatives.
================================================================================
Interest rate contract revenues increased as a result of Chase having
successfully positioned itself for the commencement of the euro and from
interest rate movements in the European markets in the 1999 first quarter.
Foreign exchange spot and option revenue declined this quarter, due to reduced
volume because of lower liquidity in the Asian markets.
The increase in debt instruments, equities and commodities revenue resulted from
continued improvement in emerging markets activities and high-grade bonds as
well as from increased revenues from Chase's equity derivative products as a
result of favorable market conditions in the 1999 first quarter. Equities and
commodities revenue was $115 million in the 1999 first quarter compared with
$74 million in the prior year quarter.
Securities Gains
Securities gains realized for the 1999 first quarter were $156 million compared
with $83 million in the prior year's first quarter. These gains were largely
from sales of U.S. Government and agency securities. Unrealized net losses in
Chase's available-for-sale securities portfolio were approximately $226 million,
before taxes, at March 31, 1999, a decrease from a net unrealized gain of
approximately $600 million, before taxes, at year-end 1998, reflecting a rise in
interest rates during the current quarter.
Private Equity Gains
Private equity gains include income from a wide variety of investments in the
United States and, to a lesser extent, abroad. Private equity gains in the 1999
first quarter were $325 million, 11 percent higher than in the first quarter of
1998, reflecting continued strength in the equity markets and a more favorable
environment for technology IPOs, as well as the positive impact of maturing
investments within the portfolio.

LESS-MARKET-SENSITIVE REVENUE
The less-market-sensitive revenue captions are generally subject to less market
volatility than market-sensitive revenues. However, certain components within
less-market-sensitive revenue are subject to market volatility, particularly
assets that are held-for-sale and are accounted for on either a mark-to-market
basis or lower-of-cost-or-market basis.
Less-market-sensitive revenues increased by 8% in the 1999 first quarter
reflecting increases across all categories. A discussion of the components
within less-market-sensitive revenue is presented below.
Net Interest Income
Reported net interest income for the 1999 first quarter was $2.20 billion, an
increase of 2% from the 1998 first quarter. Reported results include
trading-related net interest income of $219 million, an increase of 3% from the
prior year. For purposes of internal analysis, management combines
trading-related net interest income with trading revenue, as discussed under the
Trading-Related Revenue caption in the Market-Sensitive Revenue section.
The following table provides a reconciliation between reported net interest
income as presented on the Consolidated Statement of Income and operating net
interest income, which excludes trading-related net interest income and the
impact of credit card securitizations.

================================================================================
Operating net interest income was $2.31 billion in the 1999 first quarter, an
increase of 1% from 1998. The increase was primarily due to higher average
managed interest earning assets, particularly securities, domestic consumer
loans (auto financings and residential mortgages), and domestic commercial
loans. This increase was partially offset by a decline in the foreign commercial
loan portfolio, as Chase significantly reduced its exposure to emerging markets
during 1998. The growth in managed interest-earning assets in 1999 was funded by
interest-bearing deposits.
The net yield on a managed basis was 3.62%, a decrease of 13 basis points in
comparison with 1998. As a result of decreases in both the volume and rate
earned on interest-free funds, interest-free funds contributed 62 basis points
to the net yield in the first quarter of 1999, compared to 85 basis points in
the first quarter of 1998.

<PAGE> 20
Trust, Custody and Investment Management Fees
Trust, custody and investment management fees continued their strong performance
by increasing 19% to $414 million in the 1999 first quarter. These favorable
results were largely attributable to portfolio acquisitions of custody and
corporate trust businesses in late 1998 and growth in core custody products.
Credit Card Revenue
Credit card revenue on a reported basis rose $79 million, or 26%, in the 1999
first quarter as a result of increased purchase volume and the implementation of
pricing initiatives starting in the 1998 second quarter.
The following table provides a reconciliation between reported credit card
revenue as presented on the Consolidated Statement of Income and operating

The rise in fees in lieu of compensating balances reflects, in part, higher fees
for services paid by customers, rather than the customer maintaining a higher
level of compensating balances. Mortgage servicing fees increased in the 1999
first quarter largely due to a larger servicing balance. The servicing portfolio
approximated $226 billion at March 31, 1999, a 27% increase from prior year
levels. Brokerage and investment services rose $11 million due to a significant
increase in transaction volume as a result of favorable market conditions, as
well as a price reduction implemented late in the first quarter of 1998. Higher
fees related to insurance products reflected increased volume. Other fees rose
21% for the first quarter 1999, when compared to the same period in 1998, mainly
due to increased business volume, ATM fees for non-Chase customers and new cash
management products.

The 1999 first quarter operating and reported results included higher revenue
from residential mortgage originations and sales activities, a reflection of the
continued favorable interest-rate environment. All other operating revenue
increased by $37 million in the 1999 first quarter as a result of a $25 million
gain from the sale of a student loan portfolio. Also contributing to the
increase was higher revenues from a portfolio of assets that had been previously
transferred into a trust, the shares of which are being sold to institutional
investors. This trust was established late in the 1998 first quarter.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
Total reported noninterest expense was $2.95 billion in the 1999 first quarter,
a decrease of 6% from the prior year's first quarter. Operating noninterest
expense was $2.94 billion in the first quarter of 1999, 12% above the comparable
1998 quarter, reflecting technology-related costs, incentive costs tied to
higher market-sensitive revenues and the impact of a change in the components of
the long-term compensation program of the Global Bank. This change in the
compensation program (replacing options with restricted stock) contributed 2% to
the growth rate of salaries and employee benefits. Management of Chase expects
moderating expense growth for the remainder of the year.

The increase in salaries and employee benefits for the first quarter 1999 was
due to higher incentive costs, mainly driven by higher market-sensitive revenues
and the aforementioned change in the long-term compensation program of the
Global Bank. Also contributing to the increase was the net addition of 3,063
full-time equivalent employees as a result of growth in select businesses and
acquisitions (particularly in the mortgage, credit card, and custody and
fiduciary services businesses).

Occupancy and Equipment Expense
Occupancy expense increased $29 million in the 1999 first quarter, primarily due
to increased amortization of leasehold improvements from renovations resulting
from business expansions and acquisitions. The higher level of equipment expense
during the 1999 first quarter was due to an increase in depreciation expense
from the capitalization of costs relating to more advanced hardware systems
across all business units. Also contributing to the increase was higher software
expenses associated with Year 2000 efforts. For a further discussion of Year
2000 efforts, see Operating Risk Management Section on page 32.

Other expense for the 1999 first quarter increased $101 million when compared
with the first quarter of 1998. Professional services costs for the first
quarter of 1999 reflects a higher level of contract computer professionals
associated with Year 2000 efforts. The $24 million increase in marketing expense
in the first three months of 1999 is primarily due to higher marketing costs at
Chase Cardmember Services. The $14 million rise in telecommunications costs in
the 1999 first quarter covers both installation and usage and reflects the
growth in business volume at all of Chase's major business franchises. The
purchase of a global custody business during the fourth quarter 1998 contributed
to the increase in amortization of intangibles expense. All other expenses
increased $31 million, reflecting a growth in business volume at Chase
Cardmember Services and the global custody acquisition.
Restructuring Costs
For a discussion of Chase's restructuring costs, see Note Four on page 8 of this
Form 10-Q. It is anticipated that savings from the one-time charge of $510
million, taken in the first quarter of 1998 in connection with initiatives to
streamline support functions and realign certain business functions, will amount
to approximately $460 million annually. Depending on its view of revenue
opportunities, Chase may or may not reinvest all or a portion of these savings
into its revenue-generating activities.

<PAGE> 25
Chase's managed credit-related assets totaled $220 billion at March 31, 1999, a
decrease of $4 billion, or 2%, compared with year-end 1998. The decrease was
primarily due to lower derivative and foreign exchange receivables, while loan
balances remained relatively stable.
Chase's nonperforming assets at March 31, 1999 increased $68 million, or 4%,
from the 1998 year-end level primarily due to an increase in the nonperforming
domestic commercial loan portfolio. The foreign commercial loan portfolio
remained stable during the 1999 first quarter.
Total net charge-offs on a retained basis increased by $36 million during the
1999 first quarter. Total net charge-offs on a managed basis were $649 million
in the 1999 first quarter, compared with $624 million in the first quarter of
1998. The increases in net charge-offs on both a managed and retained basis are
due to increased charge-off levels in the retained credit card portfolio and
lower recoveries in the domestic commercial and industrial loan portfolio. These
increases were partially offset by lower levels of securitized credit card and
foreign commercial net charge-offs.
Management expects that credit costs in 1999, on a managed basis, will remain
relatively stable over the remainder of 1999 and will be of a similar magnitude
to total credit costs incurred in 1998. For the consumer portfolio, management
expects net charge-off rates will be approximately the same as in 1998; however,
reported net charge-offs will vary depending on the level of credit card
securitizations completed during the year. The commercial charge-off rate varies
more than the consumer charge-off rate, and over time Chase expects annual
commercial net charge-offs to be in a range of 30-50 bp.
Consumer Loan Portfolio
Residential Mortgage Loans: Residential mortgage loans outstanding remained
stable at March 31, 1999, when compared with year-end balances, as did the level
of nonperforming domestic residential mortgage loans. The loss rate of .01% for
the 1999 first quarter was unusually low due to exceptionally high recoveries.
This portfolio's asset quality continues to be strong.
Credit Card Loans: Chase analyzes its credit card portfolio on a managed basis,
which includes credit card receivables on the balance sheet as well as credit
card receivables that have been securitized.
Average managed credit card receivables for the three months ended March 31,
1999 decreased 1% when compared with the same period in 1998. The increase in
the net charge-off percentage rate for the first quarter of 1999 was due to
slower growth in credit card outstandings, driven by increased consumer
liquidity. While credit costs increased from first quarter 1998, the charge-off
rate declined from 1998 fourth quarter level, as a result of lower bankruptcy
levels, higher recoveries and improvement in the credit quality of a portfolio
acquired in 1998.

Auto Financings: Auto financings outstanding increased 7%, reflecting continued
strong consumer demand due to favorable pricing programs. Total originations
were $3.4 billion in the first three months of 1999, an increase of 14% when
compared with the same 1998 period. The 1999 charge-off rate of .45% is
indicative of the selective approach to asset origination.

Commercial Portfolio
The domestic commercial portfolio had net charge-offs of $36 million during the
1999 first quarter, compared with $6 million in the prior year period. While the
net charge-off amount did increase during the 1999 first quarter, the net
charge-off rate of .27% for the portfolio remained at a low level, indicative of
the portfolio's diversification and strong credit quality.
The foreign commercial portfolio totaled $34.2 billion at March 31, 1999 and
remained relatively stable when compared with the 1998 year-end. Nonperforming
loan levels at March 31, 1999 also remained stable. Net charge-off levels for
the 1999 first quarter decreased in comparison with the prior year by $19
million, or 27%, due to stabilizing financial conditions in Asia.
Country Exposure
The following table presents Chase's country exposure to Asia and Latin America.
Country disclosure is based on the Federal Financial Institutions Examination
Council ("FFIEC") guidelines governing the determination of cross-border risk.

(a) Country exposure is based on the FFIEC guidelines governing the
determination of cross-border risk. Under FFIEC guidelines, resale
agreements are reported by the country of the issuer of the underlying
security. Chase, however, does not consider the cross border risk of
resale agreements to depend upon the country of the issuer of the
underlying security and as a result, has presented these amounts
separately in the above table.
(b) Includes loans and accrued interest, interest-bearing deposits with banks,
acceptances, other monetary assets, issued letters of credit and undrawn
commitments to extend credit.
(c) Includes cross-border trading debt and equity instruments and the

At March 31, 1999, Chase had approximately $97 million in lending and trading
related exposure to Russia. Chase also had approximately $83 million in resale
agreements with non-Russian counterparties collateralized by non-ruble
denominated Russian debt.
Chase significantly reduced its exposure to emerging markets in Asia and Latin
America from a year ago (by 35% and 20%, respectively) and further lowered its
exposure to Asia from year-end (by 6%). Total nonperforming assets in Asia
increased by $27 million from 1998 year-end to $528 million at March 31, 1999.
Asian commercial net charge-offs for the 1999 first quarter were $59 million,
compared with $92 million, including derivatives, in 1998. There were no
charge-offs for Latin American commercial loans during the 1999 first quarter.
Chase's management has recently completed a strategic review of its cross-border
activities. As a result of that review, management believes that Chase's current
levels of cross-border exposure reflect appropriate levels of business, market,
credit and capital risk in light of Chase's cross-border business activities
and, accordingly, management currently does not expect there will be significant
changes in Chase's cross-border exposures over the balance of 1999.
Derivative and Foreign Exchange Contracts
For a discussion of the derivative and foreign exchange contracts utilized in
connection with Chase's trading and ALM activities, see pages 34-35 and Notes
One and Nineteen of Chase's 1998 Annual Report. Chase's counterparties in
derivatives and foreign exchange are primarily investment grade financial
institutions, most of which are dealers in these products. The following table
provides the remaining maturities of derivative and foreign exchange contracts
outstanding at March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998. The lengthening of the
maturity profile since year-end is the result of the improved creditworthiness
of Chase over the last several years (as evidenced by credit rating upgrades)
and the maturation of the derivatives market where longer maturities are
becoming more commonplace.

Chase had no net charge-offs arising from derivative and foreign exchange
transactions in the 1999 first quarter compared with $12 million for the same
1998 period. At March 31, 1999, nonperforming derivative contracts were $32
million, compared with $50 million at December 31, 1998. The decreases in both
net charge-offs and nonperforming derivative contracts were due to the
stabilizing of financial conditions in Asia since the 1998 fourth quarter.

(a) During the third quarter of 1998, as part of the trading valuation
process, the allowance for risk management instrument credit losses was
increased by $75 million through the provision for credit losses, in
response to the adverse market conditions in Asia and Russia.
================================================================================
Chase deems its allowance for credit losses at March 31, 1999 to be adequate
(i.e., sufficient to absorb losses that may currently exist for all credit
activities, but are not yet identifiable). Estimating losses is inherently
uncertain and depends on many factors, including general macroeconomic and
political conditions, rating migration, structural changes within industries
which alter competitive positions, event risk, unexpected correlations within
the portfolio, and other external factors such as legal and regulatory
requirements. Chase periodically reviews such factors and reassesses the
adequacy of the allowance for credit losses.

NM: Because the minimum and maximum VARs may occur on different days for
different risk components, it is not meaningful to compute a portfolio
diversification effect.
================================================================================
Chase's average aggregate VAR (VAR for both trading and ALM activities) for the
twelve-month period ended March 31, 1999 was $64.0 million and at March 31, 1999
was $76.5 million. Chase's aggregate average and period-end VARs are less than
the sum of the respective trading and ALM VARs shown in the above table (by
$21.9 million and $16.6 million, respectively) due to risk offsets, resulting
from portfolio diversification which occurs across the trading and ALM
portfolios.
Chase conducts daily VAR backtesting for both regulatory compliance with the
Basle Committee on Banking Supervision market risk capital rules and for
internal evaluation of VAR against trading revenues. For mark-to-market
activities, there were 2 days during the twelve months ended March 31, 1999 in
which a daily trading loss exceeded that day's VAR. These losses occurred during
the third quarter of 1998 and resulted from the adverse market conditions in
effect at that time.
The following chart contains a histogram of Chase's daily market risk-related
revenue, which is defined as the daily change in value of mark-to-market trading
portfolios plus any trading-related net interest income or other revenue. Based
on actual trading results for the twelve months ended March 31, 1999, Chase
posted positive daily market risk-related revenue for 226 out of 259 business
trading days, with 56 business days exceeding positive $20 million. Chase
incurred six daily trading losses in excess of negative $20 million over the
past twelve months. Five of the six daily trading losses occurred in the 1998
third quarter and resulted from the adverse global market conditions of that
period.

Asset/Liability Management
Measuring Interest Rate Sensitivity: As noted in the 1998 Annual Report,
oversight of Chase's ALM interest rate risk and Market Risk Management functions
was consolidated under the Market Risk Committee at the beginning of 1999. At
that time, Chase began to extend the market risk procedures and measurements
utilized for its trading and investment portfolios to its ALM activities.
Chase, as part of its ALM process, employs a variety of instruments, including
securities and derivatives in managing its exposure to fluctuations in interest
rates. In the past, Chase has presented its market risk exposure in the form of
an aggregate net gap position. In net gap analysis, assets, liabilities and
derivative instruments are placed in gap intervals based on their repricing
dates. For a more complete discussion of gap analysis, see page 38 of the 1998
Annual Report. Although gap analysis is a widely used representation of interest
rate risk, it is limited in that it does not include the impact of factors such
as basis risk. Basis risk results from the fact that assets may be repriced on a
different interest rate index than liabilities (for instance, LIBOR vs. prime
rate repricing). In addition, the position risk presented in gap analysis cannot
reveal the impact of other factors, such as pricing strategies on consumer and
business deposits or changes in balance sheet mix, on Chase's earnings or
economic value.
In order to improve its management of interest rate exposure and as part of the
convergence of the ALM and market risk management processes, Chase implemented
during the first quarter of 1999 a new measure to estimate the potential change
in value to Chase's ALM portfolio as a result of changes in interest rates. This
new measure is used in conjunction with existing earnings simulation measures.
The new measure, which is called "Basis Point Value" (BPV), quantifies the
change in the value of Chase's non-trading on- and off- balance sheet positions
that would result from a 1 basis point change in interest rates. This same
measure is also used to quantify the economic value sensitivity of the
non-trading on- and off- balance sheet positions to basis risk.
At March 31, 1999, Chase had a BPV value of $4.0 million (pre-tax), indicating
that the economic value of Chase's non-trading on- and off- balance sheet
positions would decline $4.0 million for every 1 basis point increase in
interest rates, assuming all rates moved in parallel together. This compares
with a BPV of $6.4 million at December 31, 1998. The BPV measure is generally
"symmetrical"; that is, a 1 basis point decrease in interest rates at March 31,
1999 would result in a $4.0 million (pre-tax) increase in Chase's economic
value. The BPV measure includes exposure to U.S. dollar interest rates as well
as exposure to non-U.S. dollar interest rates in currency markets in which Chase
does business. Since U.S. dollar interest rates and non-U.S. dollar interest
rates may not move in tandem, the reported BPV value may not represent the
actual change in economic value of Chases' ALM portfolio.
-30-
<PAGE> 31
At March 31, 1999, based on Chase's simulation models and applying immediate
increases to various market interest rates, earnings at risk over the next
twelve months are estimated to be approximately 3% of projected 1999 net income.
Chase's earnings at risk to an immediate rise in interest rates was on average
less than 4% of projected net income for 1998. The hypothetical rate shocks are
used to calculate risk that Chase believes to be reasonably possible of
occurring in the near term, but these scenarios do not necessarily represent
management's current view of future market interest rate developments.
Impact of ALM Derivative Activity:
The following table reflects the deferred gains/losses on closed derivative
contracts and unrecognized gains/losses on open derivative contracts utilized in
Chase's ALM activities at March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998.

LIQUIDITY RISK MANAGEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following liquidity and capital discussion should be read in conjunction
with the Liquidity Risk Management section on pages 40-41 and Note Eighteen of
Chase's 1998 Annual Report.
Liquidity
During the first quarter of 1999, Chase issued $1.1 billion of long-term debt,
offsetting $950 million of long-term debt that matured and $127 million that was
redeemed.
Capital
Chase's capital levels at March 31, 1999 remained strong, with capital ratios
well in excess of regulatory guidelines. At March 31, 1999, the Tier 1 and Total
Capital ratios were 8.4% and 12.2%, respectively, and the Tier 1 leverage ratio
was 6.6%.
Management believes a reasonable long-term growth rate for balance sheet assets
is approximately 6% - 7%. However, management anticipates that growth in balance
sheet assets in the near term will be below these levels as a result of
continued focus on removing non-positive SVA assets from the balance sheet. In
the 1999 first quarter, the Tier 1 capital ratio increased from year-end 1998,
notwithstanding net equity purchases during the quarter of approximately $885
million. Management intends to continue Chase's disciplined approach to asset
growth utilizing SVA. Management's current intention is to target a Tier 1 ratio
in the range of 8% to 8.25% over the long term, recognizing that the Tier 1
ratio may be outside that range from time to time, as it was at the end of the
first quarter of 1999. Capital generated in excess of this target ratio will be
used to purchase Chase common stock or for future reinvestment and acquisition
opportunities.
The following table shows the sources and uses of Chase's free cash flow.

In the first quarter of 1999, Chase raised the cash dividend on its common stock
to $.41 per share from $.36 per share. Chase has over the past several years
been paying a common stock dividend that has generally been equal to
approximately 25% to 35% of Chase's operating net income, less preferred stock
dividends. Chase's future dividend policies will be determined by its Board of
Directors taking into consideration Chase's earnings and financial condition and
applicable governmental regulation and policies.
Under a new repurchase program, effective January 4, 1999, Chase may repurchase
up to $3 billion of its common stock in the open market or through negotiated
transactions, in addition to any amounts that may need to be purchased to
provide for issuances under Chase's dividend reinvestment plan and its various
stock-based employee benefit plans. As of March 31, 1999, Chase repurchased
net $885 million.
At March 31, 1999, the total capitalization of Chase (the sum of Tier 1 and Tier
2 capital) was $34.9 billion, an increase of $114 million from December 31,
1998. This increase reflects retained earnings (net income less common and
preferred dividends) generated during the period and new debt issuances
qualifying as Tier 2 capital, partially offset by common stock repurchases.

OPERATING RISK MANAGEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following discussion of Chase's operating risk management focuses primarily
on developments since December 31, 1998.
Year 2000: Chase's Year 2000 efforts, including a description of each of the
items listed in the table below, are discussed on pages 41-42 of Chase's 1998
Annual Report. The information below updates Chase's Year 2000 disclosures.
During the 1999 first quarter, Chase continued to make progress on its Year 2000
remediated and testing efforts. The following table sets forth Chase's progress
in the first quarter, as compared with its forecast as reported in the 1998
Annual Report, and its forecast of progress for June 30, 1999.

</TABLE>
(a) The actual percent remediated is 99.7%.
(b) While activities are scheduled to be completed by the dates indicated,
efforts will continue around external testing and certification throughout
the year.
(c) For Business Software Applications, of the 99% of the systems remediated,
95% have also been tested to be Year 2000 compliant. For the remaining
types of systems listed in the table, the percent remediated also
indicates the percent tested to be Year 2000 compliant.
================================================================================
As remediation of systems is completed, attention is being directed to ensuring
that those software application systems that have been remediated, tested and
certified as Year 2000-compliant remain compliant. This entails continued
re-certification of systems throughout the remainder of the year. In addition,
Chase is increasing its tracking and risk management of third party providers.
Another major focus of 1999 will be continued customer and "street" (i.e.,
industry-wide) testing. Chase expects to participate in industry tests as they
are scheduled throughout 1999. As just one example, in the second weekend of
June, the Federal Reserve Board, The New York Clearing House and the Society for
Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication will conduct a cross-border test
of the major global payments systems. Testing with third parties is critical,
since a failure of a major external interface could have a material adverse
effect on Chase's operations.
-32-
<PAGE> 33
Chase's Year 2000 testing methods include a technique for future date
simulation, testing in the isolated environments of time machines, and the
selected use of independent validation and verification. Time machines are
computer configurations created to allow systems to be tested in an environment
where the system clock has been set to a date in the future. These environments
allow the operation of all system components together to confirm they will
interact and operate properly before, through, and after the century date
change. Independent validation and verification is a means of uncovering
potential Year 2000 errors in remediated code that may have been missed in
testing. Independent systems analysts, utilizing sophisticated Year 2000 code
analytic tools, have been contracted by Chase to identify remaining potential
Year 2000 errors for a majority of Chase's internal mission-critical software
applications. If any are found, the affected programs will be corrected
immediately and retested.
Chase's Business Risk Council, established January 1, 1999, has also been active
during the 1999 first quarter in identifying potential business risks and
coordinating business planning and readiness efforts related to the Year 2000.
The Council's focus this quarter has been on: business continuity and
contingency planning; procedures for early identification of any operational,
credit, liquidity, market or legal risks that may arise as a result of the Year
2000; and communication plans that will enable appropriate business units to
coordinate their contingency efforts.
At March 31, 1999, Chase's cost estimate to remediate its Year 2000 issues
remains at approximately $363 million. This includes costs incurred during 1997
and 1998 as well as costs expected to be incurred during 1999. Chase currently
estimates that full year 1999 Year 2000 costs will be approximately $127
million. Chase's Year 2000 cost estimate includes remediation, testing, third
party assessment, and contingency planning, but do not include approximately $33
million of depreciation costs for Year 2000-compliant equipment that will be
expensed beyond December 31, 1999.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUPERVISION AND REGULATION
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Supervision and
Regulation section on pages 1-4 of Chase's 1998 Annual Report.
Dividends
Chase's bank subsidiaries could, without the approval of their relevant banking
regulators, pay dividends to their respective bank holding companies in amounts
up to the limitations imposed upon such banks by regulatory restrictions. These
dividend limitations, in the aggregate, totaled approximately $2.9 billion at
March 31, 1999.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Derivatives
In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS 133, which establishes accounting and
reporting standards for all derivative instruments, including certain derivative
instruments embedded in other financial instruments (collectively referred to as
derivatives), and for hedging activities. SFAS 133 requires that an entity
measure all derivatives at fair value and recognize those derivatives as either
assets or liabilities in the balance sheet. The change in a derivative's fair
value is generally recognized in current period earnings. However, if certain
conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as a hedge of an
exposure to changes in fair value, variability of cash flows, or certain foreign
currency exposures. Based on the hedge designation, special hedge accounting
rules allow the derivative's change in value to be recognized either in current
period earnings together with the offsetting change in value of the risk being
hedged, or, to the extent the hedge is effective, in comprehensive income and
subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged item affects earnings.
SFAS 133 is effective for all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999
(calendar year 2000), with early adoption permitted. Chase already recognizes
the derivatives used in its trading activities on its balance sheet at fair
value with changes in the fair values of such derivatives included in earnings.
This represents the substantial majority of the derivatives utilized by Chase.
With respect to those other derivatives used as hedges of its assets,
liabilities and commitments, Chase is assessing the impact of the adoption of
SFAS 133 on its hedging activities and its effect on its financial condition and
operating performance.
