                           DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND 1994
 
1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
  Investment valuation
 
     The Plan's assets at December 31, 1995 are held by The Chase Manhattan
Bank, N.A., as successor trustee to United States Trust Company of New York, and
at December 31, 1994 by the United States Trust Company of New York in a trust
established effective January 1, 1994 for the benefit of the participants of the
Plan (the "Trust Fund").
 
     The Trust Fund's assets are valued as follows:
 
        - Marketable equity and debt securities traded on a national securities
          exchange are valued at the last reported sale price on the last
          business day of the year. Such securities traded in the over-the-
          counter market are valued at the closing bid price on the last
          business day of the calendar year.
 
        - Interests in commingled trust funds, mutual funds and pooled
          investment funds are valued at the redemption price established by the
          trustee or the investment manager of the respective fund.
 
        - Participants' notes are valued at the unpaid principal balances, with
          maturities ranging from one to ten years. Notes executed during the
          period January 1, 1984 through September 30, 1989, bear interest at a
          rate which is one percent less than the 90-day Treasury Bill rate as
          established by the Federal Reserve Bank at its offering immediately
          preceding the valuation date next preceding the valuation date on
          which the loan is made, except that the rate shall not exceed the
          guaranteed annual rate of return of the Fixed Income Fund for the
          quarter ending on the applicable valuation date next preceding the
          valuation date on which the loan is made, nor the maximum rate
          permitted by applicable law. Notes executed during the period
          September 30, 1989 through March 20, 1994 bear interest at a rate
          which is equal to the prime rate charged by Citibank, N.A. as of the
          applicable valuation date next preceding the valuation date on which
          the loan is made, rounded up to the next whole integer, except that
          the rate shall not exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable
          law. Notes executed after March 20, 1994 bear interest at a rate which
          is equal to the prime rate as reported in the Wall Street Journal on
          the last business day of the month next preceding the valuation date
          on which the loan is made, rounded up to the next whole integer,
          except that the rate shall not exceed the maximum rate permitted by
          applicable law.
 
        - The underlying investments of the Fixed Income Fund are contracts with
          insurance companies and banks under which each insurance company or
          bank agrees to pay a rate of interest equal to or in excess of the
          rate initially guaranteed for a specified period of time. These
          insurance contracts are fully benefit responsive and are valued at
          contract value. Contract value represents contributions to the fund
          plus interest accrued less redemptions. The interest rates for the
          calendar years 1995 and 1994 were 6.8% and 7.1%, respectively. These
          contracts are subject to certain restrictions or penalties in the
          event of early withdrawal or liquidation.
 
  Security transactions
 
     Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on trade dates. Gains or
losses on the sale of securities are based on average cost.
 
     Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is
recorded on an accrual basis.

  Administrative and investment management expenses
 
     Prior to March 1995, all expenses related to the administration of the Plan
and all fees paid to the trustee and other investment managers for the
management of the Plan's investments, except for investment management expenses
attributable to a certain Fixed Income Fund investment contract, were paid by
The Chubb Corporation, Chubb & Son Inc. and Participating Affiliates (the
"Employers"). The Profit Sharing Committee of The Chubb Corporation is
authorized to charge Participants account maintenance fees.
 
     Beginning in March 1995, certain trustee fees are being paid by the Plan.
 
  Income tax status
 
     The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") has determined and informed the
Company by letter dated December 22, 1995 that the Plan qualifies under Section
401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC"), and therefore the trust established
under the Plan is tax-exempt. The Plan administrator and its counsel believe
that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with
applicable requirements of the IRC.
 
  Use of Estimates
 
     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
2.  PLAN DESCRIPTION
 
     The Plan is a defined contribution plan. Generally, each employee is
eligible to participate in the Plan either upon the completion of one year of
service and the attainment of age 21 or the completion of two years of service.
 
     Under the Plan, a participant may elect to have part of his or her salary
otherwise due from the Employer contributed to the Plan by such Employer on a
pre-tax basis (the employer pay conversion contribution) or after tax basis
(participant contribution). The Plan is funded on a bi-weekly basis. Pre-tax
contributions are subject to an annual limitation of $9,240 in 1995 and 1994,
which may be increased annually based on the Consumer Price Index. A
participant's pre-tax pay conversion contributions are matched dollar for dollar
up to the first 4% of compensation (the employer matching contribution). In
addition, employees may make rollover contributions from other qualified plans.
 
     The Plan allows each participant the option of investing his or her own
contribution and his or her share of the employer's matching contribution in
several investment funds. Participants may, subject to limitations, transfer
their investments between funds at their own request. Generally, the investments
of the individual funds are managed by several outside investment managers,
subject to the Plan's guidelines. Chubb Equity Managers, Inc., a subsidiary of
The Chubb Corporation, is the investment manager of the Value Equity Fund.
 
     A separate account is maintained for each participant. Each participant
employed prior to December 31, 1992 has a 100% vested nonforfeitable interest in
all units credited to his or her account. A participant hired after December 31,
1992 is required to complete five years of service in order to have a 100%
vested nonforfeitable interest in units credited to his or her account
attributable to the employer matching contribution and earnings on the employer
matching contribution. Service with affiliated non-participating companies is
considered in calculating vesting and participation service. Forfeited balances
of terminated participants nonvested accounts are used to reduce future company
contributions or pay plan expenses.

                           DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND 1994
 
2.  PLAN DESCRIPTION -- (CONTINUED)
     A participant may withdraw any amount which does not exceed the aggregate
current value of his or her own contributions, subject to certain limitations.
In the event of financial hardship, there are provisions, subject to limitations
and penalties, which will permit an active participant to withdraw certain other
amounts from his or her account. All withdrawals must be in cash.
 
     Participants may obtain loans from the Plan pursuant to the provisions
specified in the Plan. Loans are payable in equal installments representing a
combination of interest and principal by withholding from the participant's
biweekly paychecks, and the outstanding principal amounts of any loans can be
prepaid on any applicable valuation date. In the event a participant has a loan
outstanding under the Plan, various limitations exist on such participant's
rights to receive further loans under the Plan.
 
     Upon retirement, the balance in a participant's account is payable to him
or her in a lump sum or in annual installments over 5, 10 or 15 years or over a
period equal to his or her life expectancy or to the joint life expectancies of
the participant and his or her spousal beneficiary. In addition to these
options, a participant may elect to defer the lump sum payment or the
commencement of annual installments until the day following any applicable
valuation date, then elected by him or her, which is not later than the April 1
of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the participant
attains age 70 1/2. In the event of termination of employment other than by
reason of retirement or death, a participant will receive the balance in his or
her separate account in a lump sum payment. However, if the value in the
participant's account is greater than a certain limit, the participant may
choose either to receive the lump sum distribution or to leave the units
invested in the Plan until age 65, disability or death. If a participant dies,
before or after retirement or after termination, any remaining balance in his or
her account is paid to his or her estate or beneficiary under any of the
following payment options: (a) lump sum, (b) installments as received by the
participant prior to death, or (c) installment payments in accordance with the
Plan, regardless of method received by participant prior to death.
 
     Upon request, any lump sum distribution to a participant or his or her
beneficiary from The Chubb Corporation Stock Fund may be made in common stock of
The Chubb Corporation in lieu of cash payments.
 
     While the Employers have not expressed any intent to terminate the Plan,
they are free to do so at any time subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the
event of such a termination, each affected participant is entitled to receive
the value of his or her account.
 
3.  INVESTMENTS
 
     The Trust Fund is managed by The Chase Manhattan Bank, N.A. (the "Trustee")
successor to the United States Trust Company of New York, a fiduciary with
respect to the Plan under an agreement with the Employers. The Trust Fund's
assets are held or accounted for by the Trustee under a trust agreement. The
Trustee and certain investment managers have full discretionary authority for
the purchase and sale of investments subject to certain limitations on the
composition of the portfolio as specified in the trust agreement.

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
 
The Profit Sharing Committee
Capital Accumulation Plan of The Chubb Corporation,
Chubb & Son Inc. and Participating Affiliates
 
     We have audited the accompanying statements of Net Assets Available for
Plan Benefits of the Capital Accumulation Plan of The Chubb Corporation, Chubb &
Son Inc. and Participating Affiliates as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
related Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Plan Benefits for the
year ended December 31, 1995. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.
 
     We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
     In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the Net Assets Available for Plan Benefits of the
Capital Accumulation Plan of The Chubb Corporation, Chubb & Son Inc. and
Participating Affiliates at December 31, 1995 and 1994 and the Changes in its
Net Assets Available for Plan Benefits for the year ended December 31, 1995, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
 
     Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedules
of assets held for investment purposes as of December 31, 1995, and reportable
transactions for the year then ended, are presented for purposes of complying
with the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and
Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, and are
not a required part of the basic financial statements. The Fund Information in
the Statement of Net Assets Available for Plan Benefits and the Statement of
Changes in Net Assets Available for Plan Benefits is presented for purposes of
additional analysis rather than to present the net assets available for plan
benefits and changes in net assets available for plan benefits of each fund. The
supplemental schedules and Fund Information have been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in our audits of the basic financial statements and, in our
opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.
