NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED
Our reportable segments are strategic business units that provide diverse
products and services within the financial services industry. We have six
reportable segments: Banking, International Banking, Riggs & Company, Treasury,
Riggs Capital Partners and Other. The Banking segment provides traditional
banking services, such as lending and deposit taking to retail, corporate and
commercial customers. The International Banking segment includes our Washington,
D.C.- based embassy banking business and our London-based banking subsidiary,
Riggs Bank Europe Limited. Riggs & Company is our private client services
division that provides trust and investment management services to a broad
customer base. The Treasury segment is responsible for asset and liability
management throughout our operations. Riggs Capital Partners is our venture
capital subsidiary, and specializes in equity investments in privately-held
high-growth companies. "Other" consists of our unallocated parent-company income
and expense, net interest income from unallocated equity and foreclosed real
estate activities of Riggs Bank N.A., our principal banking subsidiary.
We evaluate segment performance based on net income before taxes and minority
interest. The accounting policies of the segments are substantially the same as
those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. We account
for intercompany transactions as if the transactions were to third parties under
market conditions. Overhead and support expenses are allocated to each operating
segment based on number of employees, service usage and other factors relevant
to the expense incurred.
Reconciliations are provided from the segment totals to our consolidated
financial statements. The reconciliations of noninterest income and noninterest
expense offset, as these items result from intercompany transactions. For years
in which we have either no provision for loan losses or a reduction to the
reserve for loan losses, an allocation of loan loss is not provided to the
segments. The reconciliation of total average assets represents the elimination
of intercompany transactions.

NOTE 5. NEW FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,"
was issued in June 1998. SFAS No. 133 will require us to record derivative
instruments, such as interest-rate swap agreements, on the Consolidated
Statement of Condition as assets or liabilities, measured at fair value.
Currently we treat such instruments as off-balance-sheet items. Gains or losses
resulting from changes in the values of those derivatives would be accounted for
depending on the specific use of each derivative instrument and whether it
qualifies for hedge accounting treatment as stated in the standard. SFAS No.
137, issued in June 1999, deferred the effective date for implementation of SFAS
No. 133 to January 1, 2001. We do not anticipate any material impact from the
implementation of SFAS No. 133.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED
NOTE 6. VALUATION POLICY OF VENTURE CAPITAL INVESTMENTS
Investments in the portfolio of our venture capital subsidiary, Riggs Capital
Partners, LLC ("RCP"), are carried at fair value with gains and losses included
in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Fair value is based upon quoted market
prices when available. If quoted markets prices are not available, information
and techniques that estimate the market price determine fair value. Permanently
impaired investments are written-down as necessary. We apply discounts to the
market values of our investments to reflect various factors.
Direct investments are investments in individual companies with their financial
returns exclusively dependent upon the particular companies' performance. Listed
securities are discounted as appropriate from their quoted market value to
reflect the effects on the fair market value because of a lack of trading
history, lock-up provisions, a potential lack of market liquidity, and other
factors. The appropriate discount is generally determined by discounting our
capital gain on a publicly traded security. Warrants to purchase publicly
traded shares in companies are valued using a similar methodology to that
described above. In the event that the listed value of an investment is
lower than the average cost basis of the fund's investment in the security,
the lower valuation will be employed. Alternatives to the above discounting
formulas may be necessary to account for extraordinary circumstances concerning
particular securities.
For direct investments in securities that do not have readily available market
prices, valuations are carried at cost until the occurrence of a material event,
such as a follow-on round of financing or a strategic sale. If the price of a
security in its most recent financing is higher than RCP's carrying value, RCP
will generally use the higher valuation if new, independent, sophisticated
investors purchased securities at the higher price. If no new investors
participated in the funding, then the previous valuation is generally
maintained. If we invest in the follow-on strategic financing round, these new
investments are valued at cost. If the most recent financing implies a lower
valuation than the previous round, we use the lower valuation regardless of
whether new, sophisticated investors participated in the funding. If a
company has been self-financing and has had positive cash flow from operations
for at least the past two fiscal years, the company's valuation may be
increased, in which case we would consider increasing a company's valuation
based on financial measures using price/earnings ratios, cash flow multiples, or
other financial measures of similar companies, appropriately discounted for a
lack of liquidity.
Indirect investments represent investments made in other investment funds in
which the investment decisions are made by the funds' management. We generally
rely on quarterly values reported by the Investment Manager/General Partner of
the partnership as the basis for valuing our ownership interests in private
equity limited partnerships. To account for the dilutive effects of
management fees, partnership expenses, and General Partners' "carried
interest" (i.e., share of profits), once a fund's gains have exceeded its
preferred return threshold to its limited partners, we discount the reported
value of its limited partnership interests in private equity funds as
appropriate.
In the event that a fund holds a publicly traded security in its
portfolio that it has not distributed, the security shall be valued at the lower
of the closing price of the security on the last trading day of the quarter
and the last reported value of the security by the fund.
NOTE 7. RIGGS CAPITAL PARTNERS II
In the third quarter of 2000, we formed a second venture capital
subsidiary-Riggs Capital Partners II in order to maintain new investment flow
as proceeds of old investments in Riggs Capital Partners, LLC are distributed to
investors. J. Carter Beese, President of Riggs Capital Partners, LLC was
appointed President of this second subsidiary. We have committed to providing
up to $100 million, over a three-year period, to Riggs Capital Partners II.
We may rescind the commitments at any time based upon our review of investment
performance of the Fund and/or our determination that other uses of capital are
of greater priority.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
We recorded a loss of $4.3 million, or $(.15) per diluted share, for the third
quarter of 2000, primarily the result of a $16.5 million provision for loan
losses. The provision included an amount for the discovery of a fraud in a
commercial facility to a borrower at our London operations. The third quarter
2000 loss compares to net income of $7.2 million, or $.25 per diluted share, in
the third quarter of 1999.
For the first nine months of 2000, we had net income of $17.6 million, or $.62
per diluted share, compared with net income of $24.5 million, or $.84 per
diluted share for the first nine months of 1999. The decrease in net income of
28% resulted primarily from the current quarter's loan loss provision.
The $16.5 million loan loss provision reflected an $11.0 million charge-off
representing our total exposure to the London borrower previously mentioned, as
well as a loss of $3.9 million incurred in the sale of a domestic loan.
Return on average assets was (.30)% and .42% for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2000, compared to .51% and .59% for the same periods a year ago.
Return on average shareholders' equity was 6.69% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000, compared to 9.43% for the nine months ended September 30,
1999.
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis (net interest income plus an
amount equal to the tax savings on tax-exempt interest) totaled $47.6 million in
the third quarter of 2000, almost unchanged from the $48.2 million for the same
quarter in 1999. Net interest income was $146.5 million for the first nine
months of 2000, compared to $141.4 for the same period a year ago. The increase
from the prior year's first nine months was primarily due to a reduction in
interest expense due to the redemption of $125 million in subordinated notes in
July 1999, and increases in interest income of $4.7, $9.1, and $8.5 million,
respectively, on the loans, securities, and overnight investments portfolios.
These items were partially offset by increases in interest expense on our
interest-bearing deposits and short-term borrowings.

NONINTEREST INCOME
Noninterest income for the three months ended September 30, 2000, totaled $30.1
million, an increase of $.5 million from the $29.6 million for the same period a
year ago. $2.7 million in venture capital investment gains at Riggs Capital
Partners contributed significantly to noninterest income for the third quarter
of 2000, while in the third quarter of 1999 we recorded $3.8 million in gains
from the sale of the corporate aircraft, which was replaced. Noninterest income
between the periods was also enhanced by increases in trust and investment
advisory income and service charges and fees of $697 thousand and $601 thousand,
respectively.
Noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, totaled $94.9
million, an increase of $15.6 million from the $79.3 million earned for the same
period in 1999. This increase was primarily due to $15.3 million in venture
capital investment gains at Riggs Capital Partners, and an increase of $2.9
million in trust and advisory income from 1999 to 2000 at Riggs & Company.
Noninterest income for the prior year's nine months ended was enhanced by the
$3.8 million gain discussed above.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE
Noninterest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2000, was $55.9
million, an increase of $4.3 million from the $51.6 million reported for the
three months ended September 30, 1999. This increase was a result of added
personnel costs during the year, partially related to new business initiatives,
and other noninterest expense, such as data processing costs and occupancy
expense related to these business initiatives. In addition, in the third quarter
of 2000, we incurred legal fees related to the discovery of fraud in a
commercial facility to a borrower at our London operations discussed under
"Results of Operations" in the Management's Discussion and Analysis of this Form
10Q.
Noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, was $165.4
million compared to $152.0 million for the same period a year ago. The increase
for the nine month period was partially due to the new business initiatives and
legal fees discussed in the preceding paragraph.

SECURITIES
Securities available for sale totaled $1.28 billion at September 30, 2000,
compared to $1.29 billion at year-end 1999 and $1.30 billion at September 30,
1999. The activity for the first nine months included purchases of securities
available for sale totaling $1.08 billion, which were more than offset by
maturities, curtailments and sales of securities available for sale totaling
$1.11 billion. The weighted-average durations and yields for the portfolio,

LOANS
At September 30, 2000, loans outstanding totaled $3.03 billion, decreasing from
the September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1999 balances of $3.25 and $3.20
billion, respectively. The decreases were primarily in commercial and financial,
residential mortgage and foreign loans from both prior periods. The majority of
the decrease in commercial and financial loans from both prior periods was in
syndicated loans. Syndicated loan commitments decreased $231 million from
September 30, 1999 and $171 million from December 31, 1999, respectively. It is
part of our strategy generally to no longer participate in these types of loans.
These decreases were partially offset by increases in home equity and real
estate/commercial construction loans.
During the second quarter of 2000, we began originating mortgage loans for sale
in the secondary market. At September 30, 2000, residential real estate loans
originated and held for sale totaled $18.6 million. There were no such loans at
either September 30, 1999, or December 31, 1999.

ASSET QUALITY
NONPERFORMING ASSETS
Nonperforming assets, which include nonaccrual loans, renegotiated loans and
other real estate owned (net of reserves), totaled $39.6 million at September
30, 2000, a $4.1 million decrease from the year-end 1999 total of $43.7 million
and a $13.9 million decrease from the September 30, 1999 total. The decrease in
nonperforming assets from the third quarter of 1999 was mainly due to
charge-offs on two nonaccrual loans, which were placed on non-accrual in the
third quarter of that year. These charge-offs included $8.8 million on a
computer equipment manufacturing and servicing company and $6.0 million on a
health care entity. Another charge-off in the amount of $11.1 million,
representing our total exposure to the borrower, was made in September 2000 on a
loan which had been placed on nonaccrual in August 2000 at our London
operations. This charge-off was made as a result of the discovery of fraud in
the facility. We also charged-off $3.9 million to achieve a discounted sale of a
loan which, although not a nonperforming asset, made us doubtful about full
repayment. These charge-offs were partially offset by additions to the
non-accrual portfolio of several loans in London totaling $3.8 million.
The loans to the health care entity and computer equipment manufacturing and
servicing company, as well as several smaller loans, are considered impaired.
Impaired loans totaled $37.4 million at September 30, 2000. The assigned reserve
for loan losses for impaired loans was $8.9 million at September 30, 2000.
PAST-DUE AND POTENTIAL PROBLEM LOANS
Past-due loans consist of residential real estate loans, commercial and
industrial loans, and consumer loans that are in the process of collection and
that are accruing interest. Past-due loans increased $2.1 million during the
first nine months of 2000 to $9.6 million, with most of the increase in secured,
residential real estate loans. Potential problem loans increased from September
30 and December 31, 1999, mostly due to a loan at our London operations.

DEPOSITS
Deposits are our primary and most stable source of funds. Deposits totaled $4.08
billion at September 30, 2000, a decrease of $98.2 million from the December 31,
1999 total of $4.18 billion, and a decrease of $11.8 million from the September
30, 1999 deposit total of $4.09 billion. For both periods, deposits decreased in
savings and NOW and time deposits in domestic offices accounts, and increased in
money market accounts. Demand deposits decreased as they were swept into money
market accounts in order to reduce reserve requirements.
SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS AND LONG-TERM DEBT
Short-term borrowings decreased by $339.6 million from the year-end 1999
balance, and $293.6 million from the September 30, 1999 balance. These changes
reflect borrowings and calls of $400 million in advances from the Federal Home
Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLB). During 1999, we borrowed $400 million, all callable
during the year 2000, at an average rate of 4.99%. $200 million was called by
the FHLB in the first quarter of 2000, with the remaining $200 million called in
July. Short-term borrowings are an additional source of funds that we have
utilized to meet certain asset/liability and daily cash management objectives
and are used to generate cash and maintain adequate levels of liquidity.
In July 1999 we redeemed $125 million of our 8.5% subordinated notes due in
2006, at the price of 104.25%. General corporate funds were used to retire the
debt. We recorded an extraordinary expense of $5.1 million, after tax, in the
third quarter of 1999 as a result of the redemption.

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, CONTINUED
LIQUIDITY
We seek to maintain sufficient liquidity to meet the needs of depositors,
borrowers and creditors at a reasonable cost and without undue stress on our
operations and those of our banking subsidiaries. Our Asset/Liability Committee
actively analyzes and manages liquidity in coordination with other areas of the
organization (see "Sensitivity to Market Risk"). At September 30, 2000, our
liquid assets, on a consolidated basis, which include cash and due from banks,
Government obligations and other securities, federal funds sold, reverse
repurchase agreements and time deposits at other banks, totaled $1.96 billion
(36% of total assets). This compares with $2.20 billion (38%) at December 31,
1999, and $2.07 billion (36%) at September 30, 1999. At September 30, 2000,
$998.8 million of our assets were pledged to secure deposits and other
borrowings. This compares with pledged assets of $1.02 billion at December 31,
1999, and $887.4 million at September 30, 1999.
Our liquidity position is maintained by a stable source of funds from our core
deposit relationships. We have other sources of funds, such as short-term credit
lines available from several Federal Home Loan Banks and other financial
institutions. In addition, we have a line of credit available through our
membership in the FHLB. At September 30, 2000, December 31, 1999, and September
30, 1999, short-term credit lines and the FHLB Atlanta line of credit available
totaled approximately $1.75 billion, $1.38 billion, and $1.41 billion,
respectively. At September 30, 2000, December 31, 1999, and September 30, 1999,
the amounts outstanding were $15.0 million, $423.2 million, and $431.9 million,
respectively.
SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY AND REGULATORY CAPITAL
Total shareholders' equity at September 30, 2000, was $365.2 million, an
increase of $27.5 million from year-end 1999 and $22.1 million from a year ago.
The increase from year-end was primarily the result of net income of $17.6
million and a reduction in unrealized securities losses of $15.8 million, after
tax. The increase from September 30, 1999 was primarily the result of net income
of $24.7 million, and a reduction in unrealized securities losses of $5.4
million. For more information on our securities portfolio, see the discussion
under "Securities" in the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operation in this Form 10-Q.
Book value per common share was $12.87 as of September 30, 2000, compared to
$11.93 at year-end 1999 and $12.12 at September 30, 1999. The increases in book
value from September 30th and year-end 1999 were primarily the result of the net
income and net unrealized securities gains described in the preceding paragraph.
Following are our capital ratios and those of our banking subsidiary, Riggs Bank
National Association (Riggs Bank N.A.) at September 30, 2000 and 1999, and

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
SENSITIVITY TO MARKET RISK
We are exposed to various market risks. We have determined that interest-rate
risk has a material impact on our financial performance, and as such we have
established the Asset/Liability Committee ("ALCO") to manage interest-rate risk.
The role of this committee is to prudently manage the asset/liability mix of our
operations to provide a stable net interest margin while maintaining liquidity
and capital. This entails the management of our overall risk in conjunction with
the acquisition and deployment of funds based upon ALCO's view of both current
and prospective market and economic conditions.
We manage our interest-rate risk through the use of an income simulation model,
which forecasts the impact on net interest income of a variety of different
interest rate scenarios. A "most likely" interest rate scenario is forecasted
based upon an analysis of current market conditions and expectations. The model
then evaluates the impact on net interest income of rates moving significantly
higher or lower than the "most likely" scenario. The results are compared to
risk tolerance limits set by corporate policy. The model's results as of
September 30, 2000 and 1999 are shown in the following tables. Current policy
establishes limits for possible changes in net interest income for 12 and 36
month horizons. The interest rate scenarios monitored by ALCO are based upon a
100 basis point (1%) gradual increase or decrease in rates over a 12-month time
period and a 300 basis point (3%) gradual increase or decrease in rates over a
36-month time period.

</TABLE>
(1) Key Assumptions:
Assumptions with respect to the model's projections of the effect of changes in
interest rates on Net Interest Income include:
1. Target balances for various asset and liability classes, which are
solicited from the management of the various units of the Corporation.
2. Interest rate scenarios which are generated by ALCO for the "most likely"
scenario and are dictated by policy for the alternative scenarios.
3. Spread relationships between various interest rate indices, which are
generated by the analysis of historical relationships and ALCO consensus.
4. Assumptions about the effect of embedded options and prepayment speeds:
instruments that are callable are assumed to be called at the first
opportunity if an interest rate scenario makes it advantageous for the
owner of the call to do so. Prepayment assumptions for mortgage products
are derived from accepted industry sources.
5. Reinvestment rates for funds replacing assets or liabilities that are assumed
(through early withdrawal, prepayment, calls, etc.) to run off the balance
sheet, which are generated by the spread relationships.
6. Maturity strategies with respect to assets and liabilities, which are
solicited from the management of the various units of the Corporation.

<PAGE>
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK, CONTINUED
At September 30, 2000, the forecasted impact of rates rising or falling 100
basis points versus the "most likely" scenario over a 12-month time period was a
change in net interest income not exceeding 4%. For a 300 basis point movement
in rates versus the "most likely" scenario over a 36-month period, the impact on
net interest income did not exceed 5%. The results of the simulation for
September 30, 2000, indicated that we were "neutral" to "liability sensitive"
over both the 12 and 36-month time horizons. We were within guidelines for
interest rates moving significantly in either direction.
In managing our interest-rate risk, ALCO uses financial derivative instruments,
such as interest-rate swaps. Financial derivatives are employed to assist in the
management and/or reduction of our interest-rate risk and can effectively alter
the sensitivity of segments of the statement of condition for specified periods
of time. All of these derivative instruments are considered off-balance-sheet,
as they do not materially affect the level of our assets or liabilities. Along
with financial derivative instruments, the income simulation model includes
short-term financial instruments, investment securities, loans, deposits, and
other borrowings. Interest-rate risk management strategies are discussed and
approved by ALCO prior to implementation.
We find that the methodologies previously discussed provide a meaningful
representation of our interest-rate and market risk sensitivity, though factors
other than changes in the interest rate environment, such as levels of
non-earning assets, and changes in the composition of earning assets, may affect
net interest income. We believe our current interest-rate sensitivity level is
appropriate, considering our economic outlook and what we believe is a
conservative approach taken in the review and monitoring of our sensitivity
position.
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
Outstanding commitments and contingent liabilities that do not appear in the
consolidated financial statements at September 30, 2000 and 1999, and December
31, 1999 are detailed in the tables below. At September 30, 2000, our financial
derivative instruments included five generic swaps and three basis swaps with a
total notional amount of $141.5 million. The generic swaps extend the maturities
of certain short-term liabilities at the current funding rates to protect these
liabilities against rising interest rates. These agreements were contracted in
October 1999, December 1999, January 2000 and July 2000, and entail the payment
of a blended 6.87% fixed rate and the receipt of a floating rate equal to
three-month LIBOR. These swaps reset quarterly and mature in 2004 and 2005. The
basis swaps lock in a spread between the 3-month T-bill and federal funds to
protect against a narrowing of spreads for deposits that are tied to the 3-month
T-bill. These agreements were contracted in July 2000 and effectively result in
the payment of the federal funds rate minus a spread and the receipt of the
3-month T-bill rate. These swaps reset weekly and mature in July 2001.
We had 31 swaps at Riggs Bank Europe Limited, our London-based banking
subsidiary, with a total notional amount of $96.2 million that entail the
payment of a blended 6.59% fixed rate and the receipt of a floating rate equal
to six-month LIBOR. These swaps have varying maturities extending until 2005 and
are entered into for the purpose of converting fixed rate loans to variable.
As a result of Riggs Capital Partners venture capital investment activity, we
had venture capital commitments of $13.1 million at September 30, 2000 of which
$358 thousand were less than one year.
