         ------------


Results of Operations
- ---------------------

The net income of Commercial Credit Company (the "Company") for the three months
ended  March  31,  1995 was  $47.1  million  compared to  $52.6  million  in the
corresponding 1994 period.   The Company's income before  income taxes, minority
interest and cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles for the three
months  ended March 31, 1995 was $73.3  million compared to $87.2 million in the
corresponding  1994 period.   The Company's revenues for  the three months ended
March  31,  1995  were  $333.2  million  compared  to  $384.3  million   in  the
corresponding 1994 period.

On December  30, 1994 the Company sold its  remaining 50% interest in Commercial
Insurance Resources, Inc.,  the parent of Gulf  Insurance Company (Gulf), to  an
affiliate, The  Travelers Indemnity Company,  for $150  million and  accordingly
results of operations for 1995 do not include Gulf's results.

At March  31, 1995  the Company  had total  debt consisting  of certificates  of
deposit of  $82.8 million, short-term  borrowings of $1,827.5 million  and long-
term  debt of $4,510.0  million.  In addition  the Company's total stockholder's
equity at March 31, 1995 was $1,140.1 million.


Ratio of Earnings to Fixed Charges
- ----------------------------------

The Company's ratio of earnings to fixed charges for the quarter ended March 31,
1995 was 1.63.  This ratio has been  computed by dividing earnings available for
fixed  charges  by  fixed charges.    For  the purpose  of  this  ratio earnings
available for fixed charges consist of pre-tax income from continuing operations
adjusted  for undistributed  equity  earnings and  minority  interest and  fixed
charges; and  fixed  charges consist  of interest  expense and  that portion  of
rentals deemed representative of the appropriate interest factor.
