</TABLE>
         As the above table shows,  customer deposits  represent the majority of
the Company's  liabilities.  The largest asset  component is the loan portfolio,
which  consists  primarily of long-term  mortgages.  The  disparity  between the
repricing  (maturity or interest rate change) of deposits and borrowings and the
repricing of mortgage loans and  investments  can have a material  impact on the
Company's   results  of  operations.   The  difference   between  the  repricing
characteristics of assets and liabilities is commonly referred to as the gap.

     The gap table on the following  page shows that,  as of June 30, 1996,  the
Company's  assets mature or reprice sooner than its  liabilities.  Consequently,
one would expect  falling  interest  rates to lower the  Company's  earnings and
rising interest rates to increase the Company's earnings. However, the Company's
earnings are also affected by the built-in lag inherent in the Eleventh District
Cost of Funds Index (COFI), which is the benchmark the Company uses to determine
the rate on the great majority of its adjustable rate  mortgages.  Specifically,
there is a two-month delay in reporting the COFI because of the time required to
gather the data  needed to compute  the index.  As a result,  the  current  COFI
actually reflects the Eleventh  District's cost of funds at the level it was two
months prior. Consequently, when the interest rate environment changes, the COFI
reporting lag causes assets to initially  reprice more slowly than  liabilities,
enhancing  earnings  when rates are falling  and holding  down income when rates
rise. In addition to the COFI  reporting  lag,  other elements of ARM loans also
have an impact on earnings.  These  elements are the  interest  rate  adjustment
frequency of ARM loans, interest rate caps or limits on individual rate changes,
interest rate floors, and introductory rates on new ARM loans.

         CASH AND INVESTMENTS

         The Office of Thrift  Supervision (OTS) requires insured  institutions,
such as World  Savings and Loan  Association  (World or  Association)  and World
Savings  Bank, a Federal  Savings Bank (WFSB),  to maintain a minimum  amount of
cash and certain  qualifying  investments  for liquidity  purposes.  The current
minimum requirement is equal to a monthly average of 5% of customer deposits and
short-term borrowings. For the months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, and December
31,  1995,  World's  average  regulatory  liquidity  ratios were 7%, 6%, and 8%,
respectively,  consistently exceeding the requirement. For the months ended June
30, 1996, and December 31, 1995, WFSB's average regulatory liquidity ratios were
5.4% and 6%, respectively,  consistently exceeding the requirement. The level of
the Company's  investments  position in excess of its liquidity  requirements at
any time depends on liquidity needs.

         At June 30,  1996 and 1995,  and  December  31,  1995,  the Company had
securities  available for sale in the amount of $496 million,  $1.4 billion, and
$902  million,  respectively,  including  net  unrealized  gains  on  securities
available for sale of $114 million, $83 million, and $117 million, respectively.
At June 30, 1996 and 1995,  and December 31, 1995, the Company had no securities
held to maturity or for trading.

         Included  in the  securities  available  for sale at June 30,  1996 and
1995, and December 31, 1995, were collateralized  mortgage obligations (CMOs) in
the amount of $279 million,  $556 million, and $408 million,  respectively.  The
Company holds CMOs on which both  principal  and interest are received.  It does
not hold any  interest-only  or  principal-only  CMOs.  At June  30,  1996,  the
majority of the Company's CMOs were fixed-rate  instruments with remaining terms
to maturity of five years or less, and qualified for inclusion in the regulatory
liquidity measurement.

         MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES

         At June 30,  1996 and 1995,  and  December  31,  1995,  the Company had
mortgage-backed securities (MBS) held to maturity in the amount of $2.9 billion,
$2.2 billion, and $3.1 billion, respectively,  including $2.1 billion of Federal
National Mortgage Association (FNMA) MBS subject to full credit recourse at June
30, 1996.  At June 30, 1996 and 1995,  and  December  31, 1995,  the Company had
mortgage-backed  securities  available  for sale in the amount of $477  million,
$309 million, and $283 million, respectively,  including net unrealized gains on
MBS  available  for  sale  of  $12  million,   $15  million,  and  $14  million,
respectively,  and  including  $224  million of FNMA MBS  subject to full credit
recourse at June 30, 1996. At June 30, 1996 and 1995, and December 31, 1995, the
Company had no trading MBS.

         In June 1996, the Company  securitized  $226 million of adjustable rate
mortgages  (ARMs)  into  FNMA  COFI-indexed  MBS.  These MBS are  classified  as
available for sale.  During 1995, the Company  securitized  $2.3 billion of ARMs
into FNMA COFI-indexed MBS. The Company has the ability and intent to hold these
MBS until maturity.  Accordingly,  these MBS are classified as held to maturity.
Both the FNMA  COFI-indexed MBS available for sale and the FNMA COFI-indexed MBS
held to maturity are to be used as collateral  for borrowings and are subject to
full credit recourse to the Company.
<PAGE>
         Repayments  of MBS during the  second  quarter  and first six months of
1996 were $115 million and $220 million,  respectively,  compared to $33 million
and $58 million in the same periods of 1995.  The increase in  repayments on MBS
during  the first six months of 1996 as  compared  to the first half of 1995 was
primarily due to the increase in MBS that resulted  from the  securitization  of
ARM  loans  into  FNMA MBS and an  increase  in  prepayments  on the  underlying
mortgages.

         LOAN PORTFOLIO

                  LOAN VOLUME

     New loan  originations  for the three and six months  ended June 30,  1996,
amounted  to $1.9  billion  and $3.1  billion,  respectively,  compared  to $1.4
billion and $3.2  billion  for the same  periods in 1995.  The  increase in loan
volume in the second  quarter of 1996 was due to an increase  in interest  rates
which pushed the rate on new fixed-rate  mortgages  above the 8% level while the
starting rates on ARMs, the Company's  principal product,  remained low and more
affordable.  The Company continues to sell most of its fixed-rate  originations.
Loans  originated for sale for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 were
$141  million  and $335  million,  respectively,  compared to $8 million and $10
million for the same periods in 1995.  Although  interest rates increased during
the second quarter of 1996,  interest rates on fixed-rate loans in the first six
months of 1996 have  generally  been at levels  below the same  periods of 1995,
helping to cause an  increase  in  activity in  fixed-rate  loans  during  1996.
Refinanced loans  constituted 36% and 38% of new loan originations for the three
and six months  ended June 30,  1996,  compared to 31% and 30% for the three and
six months ended June 30, 1995.

         The Company has lending  operations in 24 states. The primary source of
mortgage  origination is loans secured by residential  properties in California.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 1996, 51% and 52%, respectively,  of
total loan originations were on residential properties in California compared to
48% and 53% for the same periods in 1995.  The five largest  states,  other than
California,  for  originations for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996,
were Texas, Florida,  Colorado,  Illinois,  and Arizona with a combined total of
29% and 28%,  respectively,  of total originations.  The percentage of the total
loan  portfolio  (including  mortgage-backed  securities  with recourse) that is
comprised of  residential  loans in California was 71% at June 30, 1996 compared
to 75% at June 30, 1995, and 73% at December 31, 1995.

     The tables on the following two pages show the Company's  loan portfolio by
state at June 30, 1996 and 1995.

(a)    The Company has no commercial loans.
(b)    Loans amounting to $1.4 billion were  securitized with full recourse into
       FNMA  mortgage-backed  securities during the first half of 1995. The June
       30, 1995 balances of these  mortgage-backed  securities  are reflected in
       the amounts above.
<PAGE>
         The Company  continues to emphasize ARM loans with interest  rates that
change  periodically  in accordance  with  movements in specified  indexes.  The
portion of the mortgage  portfolio  (excluding  MBS) composed of  rate-sensitive
loans was 91% at June 30, 1996  compared to 90% at June 30,  1995,  and December
31, 1995. The Company's ARM originations  constituted  approximately  85% of new
mortgage  loans made in the first half of 1996 compared to 97% in the first half
of 1995.

         The weighted  average  maximum  lifetime cap rate on the  Company's ARM
loan  portfolio  (including  MBS with  recourse) was 13.02%,  or 5.76% above the
actual weighted average rate at June 30, 1996, versus 13.21%, or 5.85% above the
weighted average rate at June 30, 1995.

         Approximately  $5.3 billion of the Company's loans  (including MBS with
recourse)  have terms that  state  that the  interest  rate may not fall below a
lifetime floor set at the time of origination. As of June 30, 1996, $675 million
of these ARM loans had reached  their rate floors.  The weighted  average  floor
rate on these  loans  was  7.75% at June 30,  1996 and  7.80% at June 30,  1995.
Without  the floor,  the  average  yield on these loans would have been 7.37% at
June 30, 1996 and 7.39% at June 30, 1995.

         Loan repayments consist of monthly loan amortization, loan payoffs, and
refinances.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 1996,  loan  repayments
were $823 million and $1.6 billion,  respectively,  compared to $495 million and
$933 million in the same periods of 1995.  The increase in loan  repayments  was
primarily  due to higher  mortgage  payoffs  and  higher  refinances  within the
portfolio as well as an increase in the portfolio balance.

         MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS

         On  January  1,  1996,  the  Company  adopted  Statement  of  Financial
Accounting  Standards No. 122,  "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights" (SFAS
122).  SFAS 122 amends  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 65,
"Accounting  for  Certain  Mortgage  Banking  Activities,"  to require  that any
financial institution  participating in the secondary mortgage market recognize,
as  separate  assets,  rights to service  mortgage  loans for others  when those
rights are acquired through either the purchase or origination of mortgage loans
which  are  subsequently  sold or  securitized.  SFAS  122  also  requires  that
financial  institutions  participating  in the secondary  mortgage market assess
capitalized mortgage servicing rights based on the fair value of those rights on
a  disaggregated  basis.  For the second  quarter  and first  half of 1996,  the
Company recognized gains of $2.3 million and $7.0 million,  respectively, on the
sale of loans due to the  capitalization  of  servicing  rights  under SFAS 122.
After  amortization,  the balance at June 30, 1996 of the capitalized  servicing
rights was $6.6 million.

         ASSET QUALITY

         One measure of the soundness of the Company's portfolio is its ratio of
nonperforming  assets  (NPAs) to total  assets.  Nonperforming  assets includes
non-accrual  loans  (loans  that are 90 days or more past  due) and real  estate
acquired through  foreclosure.  No interest is recognized on non-accrual  loans.
The  Company's  troubled debt  restructured  (TDRs) is made up of loans on which
delinquent loan payments have been  capitalized or on which  temporary  interest
rate reductions have been made,  primarily to customers  negatively  impacted by
adverse economic conditions.

         The following table shows the components of the Company's nonperforming
assets and TDRs, and the ratios to total assets.

</TABLE>

     The  increase in NPAs during 1996  reflects the  continued  weakness in the
California  housing  market.  The  Company  continues  to  closely  monitor  all
delinquencies  and takes  appropriate  steps to protect its interests.  Interest
foregone on non-accrual loans is  fully-reserved  and amounted to $4 million and
$11 million in the second  quarter  and first six months of 1996  compared to $4
million and $9 million for the same periods of 1995.  Interest  foregone on TDRs
amounted to $411  thousand and $778  thousand for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1996, compared to $508 thousand and $989 thousand for the three and six
months ended June 30, 1995.

         The Company provides specific valuation  allowances for losses on loans
  when impaired,  including  loans  securitized  into MBS with recourse or loans
  sold  with  recourse,  and on real  estate  owned  when  any  significant  and
  permanent  decline  in  value is  identified.  The  Company  also  utilizes  a
  methodology,  based on trends  in the  basic  portfolio,  for  monitoring  and
  estimating loan losses that is based on both historical experience in the loan
  portfolio and factors  reflecting current economic  conditions.  This approach
  uses a database that  identifies  losses on loans and  foreclosed  real estate
  from past years to the present,  broken down by year of  origination,  type of
  loan, and  geographical  area.  Management is then able to estimate a range of
  general  loss  allowances  to cover  losses  in the  portfolio.  In  addition,
  periodic  reviews  are made of major loans and real  estate  owned,  and major
  lending areas are regularly reviewed to determine  potential  problems.  Where
  indicated,  valuation  allowances are  established or adjusted.  In estimating
  possible losses,  consideration is given to the estimated sale price,  cost of
  refurbishing,  payment of  delinquent  taxes,  cost of  disposal,  and cost of
  holding the property.  Additions to and  reductions  from the  allowances  are
  reflected in current earnings.

         The table below shows the changes in the  allowance for loan losses for
  the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995.

         Customer  deposits  increased  during the second quarter of 1996 by $50
million, including interest credited of $211 million, compared to an increase of
$511 million, including interest credited of $218 million, in the second quarter
of 1995.  Customer  deposit balances in the first half of 1996 increased by $193
million, including interest credited of $424 million, compared to an increase of
$1.5 billion,  including interest credited of $406 million, in the first half of
1995.  During the first and second  quarters of 1996,  rates on  certificates of
deposit  were  lower  than a year ago which  led to a  slowdown  in the  savings
inflows compared to the first six months of 1995.

         ADVANCES FROM FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANKS

         The Company uses borrowings from the FHLB, also known as "advances," to
supplement cash flow and to provide funds for loan origination activities.  FHLB
advances amounted to $7.2 billion at June 30, 1996, compared to $6.3 billion and
$6.4 billion at June 30, 1995, and December 31, 1995, respectively.

         SECURITIES SOLD UNDER AGREEMENTS TO REPURCHASE

         The Company borrows funds through  transactions in which securities are
sold under agreements to repurchase  (Reverse Repos).  Reverse Repos are entered
into with selected major  government  securities  dealers,  large banks, and the
Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco,  typically using MBS from the Company's
portfolio.  Reverse Repos with dealers,  banks and the Federal Home Loan Bank of
San Francisco amounted to $2.3 billion,  $1.2 billion,  and $1.8 billion at June
30, 1996 and 1995, and December 31, 1995, respectively. The $2.3 billion balance
at June 30,  1996,  included  $1.5  billion  in  Federal  Home  Loan Bank of San
Francisco MBS Reverse Repos with maturities ranging from 1996 to 1998.

         In June 1996, the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers
and Servicing of Financial  Assets and  Extinguishments  of  Liabilities"  (SFAS
125).  SFAS 125 provides  accounting  and reporting  standards for transfers and
servicing  of  financial  assets  and  extinguishments  of  liabilities.   Those
standards are based on consistent application of a financial-components approach
that  focuses on control.  Under that  approach,  after a transfer of  financial
assets,  an entity recognizes the financial and servicing assets it controls and
the liabilities it has incurred,  derecognizes financial assets when control has
been surrendered, and derecognizes liabilities when extinguished. This Statement
provides consistent  standards for distinguishing  transfers of financial assets
that are sales from transfers that are secured borrowings. SFAS 125 is effective
for  transfers  and  servicing  of  financial  assets  and   extinguishments  of
liabilities   occurring   after   December  31,  1996,  and  is  to  be  applied
prospectively.  The impact on the Company's  financial  condition and results of
operations is not expected to be material.

         OTHER BORROWINGS

         At June 30, 1996,  Golden West,  at the holding  company  level,  had a
total of $1.1 billion of subordinated  debt issued and  outstanding.  As of June
30, 1996, the Company's  subordinated  debt  securities  were rated A3 and A- by
Moody's  Investors Service  (Moody's) and Standard & Poor's  Corporation  (S&P),
respectively. At June 30, 1996, Golden West had on file a registration statement
with the Securities  and Exchange  Commission for the sale of up to $300 million
of subordinated notes.

         World currently has on file a shelf  registration  with the OTS for the
issuance  of $2.0  billion  of  unsecured  medium-term  notes,  all of which was
available for issuance at June 30, 1996. World had medium-term notes outstanding
under prior  registrations  with  principal  amounts of $690 million at June 30,
1996,  compared to $1.9 billion at June 30,  1995,  and $1.6 billion at December
31, 1995. As of June 30, 1996, World's medium-term notes were rated A1 and A+ by
Moody's and S&P, respectively.
<PAGE>
         World also has on file a  registration  statement  with the OTS for the
sale of up to $300 million of subordinated notes and, at June 30, 1996, the full
amount was available for issuance. As of June 30, 1996, World had issued a total
of $200 million of subordinated  notes, which were rated A2 and A by Moody's and
S&P,  respectively.  The subordinated  notes are included in World's  risk-based
regulatory capital as Supplementary Capital.

         STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

         The  Company's  stockholders'  equity  increased  during  the first six
months of 1996 and 1995 as a result of retained earnings.  The 1996 increase was
partially offset by the $59 million cost of the purchase of Company stock and by
a $3 million  decline in market  values of  securities  available for sale since
December 31, 1995.  Unrealized  gains on  securities  and MBS available for sale
included in  stockholders'  equity at June 30, 1996 and 1995,  and  December 31,
1995, were $73 million, $58 million, and $76 million, respectively.

         The Company  adopted  Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards No.
123,  "Accounting for Stock-Based  Compensation"  (SFAS 123) on January 1, 1996.
SFAS 123 establishes  accounting and disclosure  requirements using a fair value
based method of accounting for stock based employee  compensation  plans.  Under
SFAS 123,  the  Company  can either  adopt the new fair value  based  accounting
method or  continue  the  intrinsic  value  based  method and  provide pro forma
disclosures of net income and earnings per share as if the accounting provisions
of  SFAS  123  had  been  adopted.  The  Company  adopted  only  the  disclosure
requirements of SFAS 123; therefore such adoption has no effect on the Company's
June 30, 1996 consolidated financial statements.

     During periods of low asset growth,  the Company's capital ratios may build
to levels well in excess of the amounts  necessary  to meet  regulatory  capital
requirements.  Golden West's Board of Directors  regularly  reviews  alternative
uses of excess capital, including faster growth and acquisitions.  At times, the
Board has  determined  that the purchase of common stock is a wise use of excess
capital.

         Since October 1993, through three separate actions, Golden West's Board
of Directors  has  authorized  the purchase by the Company of up to 12.2 million
shares of Golden West's common stock.  As of June 30, 1996,  7.0 million  shares
had been purchased and retired at a cost of $285 million since October, 1993, of
which 1.1 million were purchased and retired at a cost of $59 million during the
first half of 1996.  Dividends from World Savings are expected to continue to be
the major source of funding for the stock  repurchase  program.  The purchase of
Golden  West  stock is not  intended  to have a  material  impact on the  normal
liquidity of the Company.

         World paid a $165  million  dividend  to Golden  West in March 1996 and
again in June 1996 for a total of $330 million for the first half of 1996.

         The  Company  has on  file a  shelf  registration  statement  with  the
Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  to issue up to two million  shares of its
preferred  stock.  The preferred stock may be issued in one or more series,  may
have varying  provisions and designations,  and may be represented by depository
shares.  The preferred stock is not convertible  into common stock. No preferred
stock has yet been issued under the registration.  The Company's preferred stock
has been preliminarily rated a2 by Moody's.

         In  addition,  institutions  whose  exposure to  interest  rate risk as
determined  by the OTS is  deemed to be above  normal  may be  required  to hold
additional   risk-based  capital.  The  OTS  has  determined  that  neither  the
Association nor WFSB has above-normal exposure to interest rate risk.

         The  OTS  has  adopted  rules  based  upon  five  capital  tiers:  well
capitalized,    adequately    capitalized,    undercapitalized,    significantly
undercapitalized,  and critically undercapitalized. The determination of whether
an  association  falls into a certain  classification  depends  primarily on its
capital ratios.  The tables on the following pages summarized the capital ratios
for each of the five classifications and shows that World and WFSB met the "well
capitalized" standard as of June 30, 1996.

     The Company's  primary  spread is, to some degree,  dependent on changes in
interest rates because the Company's  liabilities  tend to respond somewhat more
rapidly to rate movements than its assets,  which are primarily  adjustable rate
mortgages.  Most of the  Company's  ARMs  have  interest  rates  that  change in
accordance with an index based on the cost of deposits and borrowings of savings
institutions  that are  members  of the FHLB of San  Francisco  (the  COFI).  In
general,  the repricing of COFI ARM portfolios  tends to lag liability  interest
rate changes because of certain loan features which restrain monthly adjustments
and  because  the COFI  tends to trail  changes  in  liability  costs due to the
existence of a two-month  reporting lag. Interest rates were generally declining
during  the  second  half of 1995 and  early  1996 and  began to  stabilize  and
slightly  increase  during  the  second  quarter  of 1996.  The  effects of this
interest  rate  environment  led to a 22 basis point  reduction in the Company's
cost of funds and a 20 basis  point  reduction  in the yield on  earning  assets
during the first half of 1996,  allowing  for a 2 basis  point  increase  in the
Company's spread since yearend 1995.

         The table on the  following  page  shows  the  Company's  revenues  and
expenses as a  percentage  of total  revenues for the three and six months ended
June 30,  1996 and 1995,  in order to focus on the  changes in  interest  income
between years as well as changes in other revenue and expense amounts.

         INTEREST RATE SWAPS AND CAPS

         The Company  enters into  interest rate swaps and caps as a part of its
interest rate risk management strategy. Such instruments are entered into solely
to alter the repricing characteristics of designated assets and liabilities. The
Company does not hold any derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

         Interest rate swap and cap activity decreased net interest income by $3
million  and $7 million  for the three and six months  ended June 30,  1996,  as
compared to a decrease  of $9 million  and $18  million for the same  periods in
1995.

         The table on the following page  summarizes  the  unrealized  gains and
losses for interest rate swaps and caps at June 30, 1996 and 1995.

         INTEREST ON LOANS

         In the second quarter of 1996, interest on loans was higher than in the
comparable  1995  period by $15  million  or 2.9%.  The  increase  in the second
quarter of 1996 was due to a $712  million  increase  in the  average  portfolio
balance and a 4 basis point  increase in the average  portfolio  yield.  For the
first half of 1996, interest on loans was higher than the comparable 1995 period
by $66 million or 6.5%.  The increase was due to a $715 million  increase in the
average portfolio balance and a 29 basis point increase in the average portfolio
yield.

         INTEREST ON MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES

         In the second quarter of 1996,  interest on mortgage-backed  securities
was higher than in the comparable 1995 period by $22 million or 57.8%.  The 1996
increase was due primarily to a $1.3 billion  increase in the average  portfolio
balance,  which was partially offset by a 40 basis point decrease in the average
portfolio  yield.  For the  first  half of  1996,  interest  on  mortgage-backed
securities was higher than in the comparable 1995 period by $58 million or 91.4%
due to a $1.7  billion  increase in the average  portfolio  which was  partially
offset by a 48 basis point decrease in the average portfolio yield. The increase
in the  mortgage-backed  securities  portfolio,  and the lower average portfolio
yield were primarily the result of the securitization of  adjustable-rate  loans
with full credit recourse that began in 1995, as discussed on page 11.

         INTEREST AND DIVIDENDS ON INVESTMENTS

         The income earned on the  investment  portfolio  fluctuates,  depending
upon the volume outstanding and the yields available on short-term  investments.
For the second quarter of 1996,  interest and dividends on investments  were $11
million  or 28.1%  lower  than for the same  period in 1995.  The  decrease  was
primarily due to a 38 basis point decrease in the average  portfolio yield and a
$744 million decrease in the average  portfolio  balance.  For the first half of
1996,  interest and dividends on investments was $11 million or 14.7% lower than
for the same period in 1995.  The decrease was  primarily  due to a $543 million
decrease in the average  portfolio  balance and a 20 basis point decrease in the
average  portfolio  yield.  The  decrease  during  the  first  half of 1996  was
partially  offset by $4.3 million of interest  income  received on an income tax
refund in 1996.

         INTEREST ON CUSTOMER DEPOSITS

         In the second quarter of 1996,  interest on customer deposits decreased
by $12 million or 4.4% from the comparable  period in 1995. In the first half of
1996,  interest on customer  deposits  increased by $17 million or 3.5% from the
comparable period of 1995. The second quarter decrease was due to a $384 million
increase in the  average  deposit  balance  which was offset by a 32 basis point
decrease in the average cost of deposits.  The six month  increase was primarily
due to a $796  million  increase  in the average  balance of deposits  which was
offset by a 5 basis point decrease in the average cost of deposits.

         INTEREST ON ADVANCES AND OTHER BORROWINGS

         For the second quarter and first half of 1996, interest on advances and
other  borrowings  increased  by $2  million  or 1.1% and $18  million  or 5.9%,
respectively,  from the comparable  periods of 1995. The second quarter increase
was primarily due to a $728 million increase in the average  balance,  which was
partially  offset by a 40 basis  point  decrease  in the  average  cost of these
borrowings.  The six month increase was primarily due to a $862 million increase
in the  average  balance  which was offset by a 24 basis  point  decrease in the
average cost of these borrowings.

         PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

         The  provision  for loan losses was $17.2  million  and $35.8  million,
respectively,  for the three and six months  ended June 30,  1996,  compared  to
$14.7  million  and $29.4  million  for the same  periods  in 1995.  The  higher
provision  in 1996  reflects  the increase in  non-accrual  loans,  primarily in
California.

         GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

         For  the  second   quarter   and  first  half  of  1996,   general  and
administrative expenses (G&A) increased by $2.3 million or 3.0% and $4.7 million
or 3.0%, respectively,  from the comparable periods in 1995. The primary reasons
for the increases in 1996 were growth in savings offices and general  inflation.
G&A as a percentage of average assets on an annualized basis was 0.91% and 0.92%
for the second quarter and first half of 1995,  respectively,  compared to 0.92%
and 0.94% for the same periods in 1995.

         DEPOSIT INSURANCE

         Legislation to capitalize the Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF)
in order to bring it into parity with the FDIC's other  insurance fund, the Bank
Insurance  Fund (BIF) was not signed  into law even though it passed both houses
of Congress in 1995.  The  legislation  would have required an assessment of all
SAIF-insured  institutions of  approximately  80 basis points on their March 31,
1995, customer deposit balances. It is not clear when the disparity between SAIF
and BIF will be  resolved;  therefore,  the exact  impact on the Company of that
resolution is unknown at this time.

         TAXES ON INCOME

         The Company  utilizes the accrual  method of accounting  for income tax
purposes and for  preparing its published  financial  statements.  For financial
reporting purposes only, the Company uses purchase accounting in connection with
certain assets acquired  through  mergers.  The purchase  accounting  portion of
income is not subject to tax.

         Taxes as a percentage of earnings were 39.5% for the second quarter and
first six months of 1996 compared to 39.0% and 38.9% for the same periods a year
ago.

         LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         World's  principal  sources  of funds  are cash  flows  generated  from
earnings; customer deposits; loan repayments; borrowings from the FHLB; issuance
of medium-term notes; and debt collateralized by mortgages,  MBS, or securities.
In  addition,  World has a number of other  alternatives  available  to  provide
liquidity  or finance  operations.  These  include  borrowings  from its parent,
borrowings  from  public   offerings  of  debt,   sales  of  loans,   negotiable
certificates  of deposit,  issuances of commercial  paper,  and borrowings  from
commercial banks. Furthermore,  under certain conditions,  World may borrow from
the Federal  Reserve Bank of San Francisco to meet  short-term  cash needs.  The
availability  of these funds will vary  depending upon policies of the FHLB, the
Federal  Reserve Bank of San Francisco,  and the Federal  Reserve  Board.  For a
discussion  of World's  liquidity  positions  at June 30,  1996,  and 1995,  and
December 31, 1995, see the cash and investments section on page 11.

         WFSB's  principal  sources  of funds  are  cash  flows  generated  from
earnings;  customer  deposits;  loan  repayments;   borrowings  from  the  FHLB;
investments and borrowings from its parent; and debt collateralized by mortgages

WFSB's  liquidity  positions at June 30, 1996,  and 1995, and December 31, 1995,
see the cash and investments section on page 11.

         The  principal  sources  of funds  for  Golden  West (the  Parent)  are
interest  on  investments,  dividends  from  World,  and the  proceeds  from the
issuance  of debt  and  equity  securities.  Various  statutory  and  regulatory
restrictions and tax considerations limit the amount of dividends World can pay.
The  principal  liquidity  needs of Golden West are for payment of interest  and
principal on subordinated debt securities,  capital contributions to its insured
subsidiaries,  dividends to stockholders, the purchase of Golden West stock (see
stockholders'  equity  section  on page  22),  and  general  and  administrative
expenses.  At June 30, 1996 and 1995, and December 31, 1995, Golden West's total
cash  and  investments  amounted  to  $799  million  (including  a $600  million
short-term loan to World), $984 million, and $719 million, respectively.
