NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of J.P. Morgan & Co.
Incorporated and subsidiaries (collectively, "JP Morgan"). All material
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The financial information as of and for the periods ended September 30, 1997 and
1996 is unaudited. All adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are
necessary for a fair presentation have been made and were of a normal, recurring
nature. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the audited financial statements included in J.P. Morgan's Annual report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996, as well as information included in
J.P. Morgan's unaudited quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended
March 31, 1997 and June 30, 1997. The nature of J.P. Morgan's business is such
that the results of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results
for a full year. Certain prior-year amounts have been reclassified to conform
with the current year presentation.
2. ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS
Earnings per Share
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, Earnings per Share. SFAS No. 128
supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 15 and related
pronouncements, and replaces the computations of primary and fully diluted
earnings per share (EPS) with basic and diluted EPS, respectively. Basic EPS is
computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the period's
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, which includes
contingently issuable shares where all necessary conditions for issuance have
been satisfied. Diluted EPS includes the determinants of basic EPS and, in
addition, gives effect to dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding
during the period. SFAS No. 128 is effective for financial statements issued for
periods ending after December 15, 1997. Earlier application is not permitted.
Basic EPS and diluted EPS, computed using SFAS No. 128, for the three months
ended September 30, 1997, were approximately $2.10 and $1.96, respectively. For
the nine months ended September 30, 1997, basic EPS and diluted EPS were
approximately $6.27 and $5.84, respectively. Refer to Note 14, Earnings per
Common Share, for EPS calculations under current rules.
3. INTEREST REVENUE AND EXPENSE
An analysis of interest revenue and expense derived from on-and
off-balance-sheet financial instruments is presented in the table below.
Interest revenue and expense associated with derivative financial instruments,
such as swaps, forwards, futures, options, and debt securities forwards, used as
hedges or to modify the interest rate characteristics of assets and liabilities,
is attributed to and included with the related balance sheet instrument. Net
interest revenue associated with risk-adjusting swaps that are used to meet
longer-term investment objectives, including the maximization of net interest
revenue, is not attributed to a specific balance sheet instrument, but is
included in the Other sources caption in the table below.

(a) Interest revenue from debt investment securities included taxable revenue of
$387 million and $1,136 million and revenue exempt from U.S. income taxes of $23
million and $73 million for the three months and nine months ended September 30,
1997, respectively. Interest revenue from debt investment securities included
taxable revenue of $362 million and $1,094 million and revenue exempt from U.S.
income taxes of $31 million and $89 million for the three months and nine months
ended September 30, 1996.

For the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1997, net interest
revenue associated with derivatives used for purposes other-than-trading was
approximately $50 million and $160 million respectively, compared with
approximately $25 million and $90 million for the three months and nine months
ended September 30, 1996. At September 30, 1997, approximately $265 million of
net deferred losses on closed derivative contracts used for purposes
other-than-trading were recorded on the consolidated balance sheet. Such amount
is primarily composed of net deferred losses on closed hedge contracts included
in the amortized cost of the debt investment portfolio. As discussed in Note 5
to the consolidated financial statements, Investment securities, the net
unrealized appreciation associated with the debt investment portfolio was $343
million at September 30, 1997. The amount of net deferred gains or losses on
closed derivative contracts will change from period to period, primarily due to
amortization of such amounts into net interest revenue and the execution of our
investing strategies, which may result in the sale of the underlying hedged
instruments and/or termination of hedge contracts. Net deferred losses on closed
derivative contracts at September 30, 1997, are expected to amortize into Net
interest revenue as follows: $20 million - remainder of 1997; $80 million in
1998; $60 million in 1999; $55 million in 2000; $35 million in 2001; $10 million
in 2002; and approximately $5 million thereafter.

(a) The majority of J.P. Morgan's derivatives used for purposes
other-than-trading are transacted with independently managed J.P. Morgan
derivatives dealers who function as intermediaries for credit and administrative
purposes.
(b) The notional amounts of derivative contracts used for purposes
other-than-trading conducted in the foreign exchange markets, primarily forward
contracts, amounted to $40.2 billion at September 30, 1997, and were primarily
denominated in the following currencies: German deutsche mark $11.1 billion,
French franc $4.9 billion, Italian lira $4.4 billion, Japanese yen $4.1
billion, and Spanish peseta $2.8 billion.
(c) The notional amount of risk-adjusting swaps was $155.8 billion at September
30, 1997.
(d) At September 30, 1997, purchased options used for trading purposes included
$581.6 billion of interest rate options, $177.2 billion of foreign exchange
options, and $45.5 billion of commodity and equity options. Only interest rate
options are used for purposes other-than-trading. Purchased options executed on
an exchange amounted to $120.3 billion and those negotiated over-the-counter
amounted to $685.6 billion at September 30, 1997.
(e) At September 30, 1997, written options included $686.2 billion of interest
rate options, $202.3 billion of foreign exchange options, and $54.0 billion of
commodity and equity options. Written option contracts executed on an exchange
amounted to $182.5 billion and those negotiated over-the-counter amounted to
$760.0 billion at September 30, 1997.
Derivatives used for purposes other-than-trading
As an end user, J.P. Morgan utilizes derivative instruments in the execution of
its investing strategies. Such derivatives primarily include interest rate
swaps, foreign exchange forward contracts, interest rate futures, and debt
securities forwards. Derivatives are used to hedge or modify the interest rate
characteristics of debt investment securities, loans, deposits, other
liabilities for borrowed money, long-term debt, and other financial assets and
liabilities. In addition, we utilize derivatives to adjust our overall interest
rate risk profile through the use of risk-adjusting swaps.
Net unrealized gains associated with open derivative contracts used to
hedge or modify the interest rate characteristics of related balance sheet
instruments amounted to $305 million at September 30, 1997. Such amounts
primarily relate to interest rate and currency swaps used to hedge or modify the
interest rate characteristics of long-term debt, deposits, and debt investment
securities, principally mortgage-backed securities. Gross unrealized gains and
gross unrealized losses associated with open derivative contracts at September
30, 1997, are as follows:

</TABLE>
Net unrealized gains associated with risk-adjusting swaps that are entered into
to meet longer-term investment objectives and their related hedges approximated
$56 million at September 30, 1997. The net amount is composed of $1,656 million
of gross unrealized gains and $1,600 million of gross unrealized losses. The
unrealized gains and losses related to the derivative contracts used to hedge
these risk-adjusting swaps, included above, were not material at September 30,
1997. There were no material terminations of risk-adjusting swaps during the
three months and nine months ended September 30, 1997.
Credit-related financial instruments
Credit-related financial instruments include commitments to extend credit,
standby letters of credit and guarantees, and indemnifications in connection
with securities lending activities. The contractual amounts of these instruments
represent the amounts at risk should the contract be fully drawn upon, the
client default, and the value of any existing collateral become worthless. The
total contractual amount of credit-related financial instruments does not
represent the expected future liquidity requirements, since a significant amount
of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit and guarantees are
expected to expire or mature without being drawn. The credit risk associated
with these instruments varies depending on the creditworthiness of the client
and the value of any collateral held. Commitments to extend credit generally
require the client to meet certain credit-related terms and conditions before
drawdown. Collateral is required in connection with securities lending
indemnifications. Market risk for commitments to extend credit and standby
letters of credit and guarantees, while not significant, may exist as
availability of and access to credit markets changes.
A summary of the contractual amount of credit-related financial instruments
at September 30, 1997, is presented in the following table.

Included in Fees and Commissions are credit-related fees of $44 million and $121
million for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1997,
respectively, and $39 million and $115 million for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 1996, respectively. These fees are primarily earned from
commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and guarantees, and
securities lending indemnifications.
Other
Consistent with industry practice, amounts receivable and payable for securities
that have not reached the contractual settlement dates are recorded net on the
consolidated balance sheet. Amounts receivable for securities sold of $39.9
billion were netted against amounts payable for securities purchased of $40.7
billion to arrive at a net trade date payable of $ 0.8 billion, which was
classified as Other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet at September
30, 1997.
8. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
In accordance with SFAS No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial
Instruments, J.P. Morgan estimates the aggregate net fair value of all balance
sheet and off-balance-sheet financial instruments. The aggregate fair value of
such financial instruments exceeds associated net carrying values at September
30, 1997. Such excess did not significantly change during the quarter.
9. IMPAIRED LOANS AND OTHER NONPERFORMING ASSETS
Total impaired loans and other nonperforming assets, net of charge-offs, at
September 30, 1997, are presented in the following table. At September 30, 1997,
approximately two thirds of the impaired loan balance is measured based upon the
present value of expected future cash flows discounted at an individual loan's
effective interest rate, and approximately one third is measured by the fair
value of the collateral or by an observable market price.

reduced the recorded investment values to amounts that are less than the SFAS
No. 114 calculated values. For the three months and nine months ended September
30, 1997, the average recorded investment in impaired loans was $97 million and
$102 million, respectively.

(a) In accordance with SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, and SFAS No.
114, as amended by SFAS No. 118, an aggregate allowance is maintained that is
considered adequate to absorb losses inherent in the existing portfolios of
loans and other undertakings to extend credit, such as irrevocable unused loan
commitments, or to make payments to others for which a client is ultimately
liable, such as standby letters of credit and guarantees, commercial letters of
credit and acceptances, and all other credit exposures, including derivatives. A
judgment as to the adequacy of the aggregate allowance is made at the end of
each quarterly reporting period.
(b) At September 30, 1997, the allocation of the aggregate allowance for credit
losses was as follows: Specific allocation - borrowers in the U.S. $135
million, Specific allocation - borrowers outside the U.S. $37 million,
Allocation to general risk $924 million.
11. INVESTMENT BANKING REVENUE AND OTHER REVENUE
In the third quarter of 1997 and 1996, investment banking revenue of $320
million and $233 million includes $132 million and $83 million, respectively, of
underwriting revenue. For the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996,
investment banking revenue of $840 million and $644 million includes
underwriting revenue of $369 million and $259 million, respectively.
Other revenue includes $12 million and $85 million for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 1997, respectively, of gains on hedges of anticipated
foreign currency revenues and expenses. These gains were partially offset by the
impact of exchange rate movements on reported revenues and expenses in the
respective periods.
12. INCOME TAXES
Income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and
1996 reflects a 33% effective tax rate. Income tax expense related to net
realized gains on debt and equity investment securities was approximately $14
million and $80 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997,
respectively. Income tax expense related to net realized gains on debt and
equity investment securities was approximately $26 million and $77 million for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996, respectively. The applicable
tax rate used to compute the income tax expense related to net gains on debt and
equity investment securities was approximately 37% for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 1997. The applicable tax rate used to compute the income tax
expense related to net gains on debt and equity investment securities for the
three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996, was approximately 39% and
36%, respectively.
13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
Excluding mortgaged properties, assets carried at approximately $85.9 billion in
the consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 1997, were pledged as collateral
for borrowings, to qualify for fiduciary powers, to secure public moneys as
required by law, and for other purposes.
<PAGE> 16
PAGE 16
14. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
In the calculation of primary and fully diluted earnings per common share, net
income is adjusted by adding back to net income the interest expense on
convertible debentures and the expense related to dividend equivalents on
certain deferred incentive compensation awards, net of the related income tax
effects, and subtracting from net income the preferred stock dividends to arrive
at net income applicable to common stock. Primary and fully diluted earnings per
common share are computed by dividing net income applicable to common stock by
the weighted-average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding
during the year.
For primary and fully diluted earnings per share, the weighted-average
number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding was the sum of the
average number of shares of common stock outstanding, the average number of
shares issuable upon conversion of convertible debentures, and the average
number of shares issuable under employee benefit plans that have a dilutive
effect, as computed under the treasury stock method. Under this method, the
number of incremental shares is determined by assuming the issuance of the
outstanding stock options and certain deferred incentive compensation awards,
reduced by the number of shares assumed to be repurchased from the issuance
proceeds, using the market price of the company's common stock. For primary
earnings per share, this market price is the average market price for the
period, while for fully diluted earnings per share, it is the period-end market
price, if it is higher than the average price.

15. CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
As of September 30, 1997, J.P. Morgan and Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New
York (Morgan Guaranty) adopted the Federal Reserve Board's new market risk
capital guidelines for calculation of risk-based capital ratios, in advance of
the mandatory implementation date of January 1, 1998. The new framework amends
the existing guidelines by incorporating a measure of market risk for trading
positions. In addition, the capital and assets of the Section 20 subsidiary,
J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., are now included in the calculations related to
J.P. Morgan, the bank holding company. Prior period ratios have not been
restated. Refer to page 28 for further information.
For certain regulatory supervision purposes, bank regulators use five
capital category definitions applicable to banks ranging from "well capitalized"
to "critically undercapitalized." A bank is considered "well capitalized" if it
has minimum tier 1 capital, total capital and leverage ratios of 6%, 10% and 5%,
respectively. A bank holding company that has adopted the new framework is
considered "well capitalized" if it has minimum tier 1 capital, total capital,
and leverage ratios of 6%, 10% and 3%, respectively. At September 30, 1997, the
ratios of J.P. Morgan and Morgan Guaranty exceeded the minimum standards
required for a "well capitalized" bank holding company and bank, respectively.
Management is aware of no conditions or events that have occurred since
September 30, 1997 that would change J.P. Morgan's or Morgan Guaranty's "well
capitalized" status.
<PAGE> 17

Set forth in the table below are the risk-based capital and leverage ratios and
amounts for J.P. Morgan and Morgan Guaranty as of September 30, 1997. All

16. PENDING INVESTMENT IN AMERICAN CENTURY COMPANIES, INC.
On July 30, 1997, J.P. Morgan agreed to purchase a 45% economic interest in
American Century Companies, Inc. (American Century) for cash consideration of
approximately $900 million. In addition, J.P. Morgan will have an option to
increase its economic interest to 50% at the end of three years. The transaction
is expected to close in early 1998, pending approval by each firm's Board of
Directors and U.S. regulatory agencies. American Century, the fourth largest
no-load U.S. mutual fund company selling directly to individuals, manages $60
billion of assets in about 70 mutual funds. The investment will be accounted for
under the equity method of accounting.

</TABLE>
Methodology
The firm's management reporting system and policies were used to determine the
revenues and expenses directly attributable to each business sector. Earnings on
stockholders' equity were allocated based on management's assessment of the
inherent risk of the components of each sector. In addition, certain overhead
expenses not allocated for management reporting purposes were allocated to each
business sector. Overhead expenses were allocated based primarily on staff
levels and represent costs associated with various support functions that exist
for the benefit of the firm as a whole. Effective January 1, 1997, as
compensation for managing the firm's credit risk, Global Credit receives fees
from other Morgan businesses. Such fees are included as revenues in the Finance
and Advisory sector and as a reduction in revenues reported by businesses on
whose behalf such credit risk is managed. Certain prior year amounts have been
reclassified to conform with the current presentation.

PAGE 20
FINANCE AND ADVISORY
The Finance and Advisory sector includes results of our Advisory, Debt and
Equity Underwriting, and Credit activities. Revenues in the third quarter
increased 28% to $548 million from a year ago.
Revenues from advisory services and debt and equity underwriting in
both developed and emerging markets increased 74% to $328 million, reflecting
record levels of investment banking activity. Revenues from the global credit
business declined to $220 million from $240 million a year ago, primarily
because of lower syndication revenues.
Market share increased in both debt and equity underwriting and
mergers and acquisitions activity. According to Securities Data Co., J.P. Morgan
ranked sixth in U.S. debt and equity underwriting for the first nine months of
1997, and market share grew to 8.7% from 6.9% a year ago. In completed mergers
and acquisitions transactions worldwide, Morgan also ranked sixth on a
year-to-date basis; market share rose to 10.7%, compared with 8.9% in the prior
year. As arranger of syndicated loans, J.P. Morgan ranked second globally,
according to Loan Pricing Corporation, for the first nine months of 1997,
unchanged from a year earlier.
Expenses in the third quarter of 1997 increased 31% to $343 million
compared with $261 million in the third quarter of 1996. The Finance and
Advisory sector includes all of the costs associated with our global network of
senior client relationship managers who market the full spectrum of our
capabilities and provide the link between our clients' needs and J.P. Morgan's
financial, advisory, asset management, market-making, and risk management
products and services.

million in the third quarter of 1997 compared with $168 million a year ago.
Revenues for the first nine months of 1997 increased to $1.480
billion from $1.271 billion in 1996. Expenses for the same period increased to
$996 million from $788 million in the nine months ended September 30, 1996.

million, with especially strong results in Europe. In emerging markets,
market-making revenues were $111 million, down from $153 million a year ago. In
equities, market making revenues were up 83% to $106 million. Equity commissions
increased sharply, reflecting growing volumes and market share on U.S. and
European exchanges; equity derivative revenues also grew. Foreign exchange
revenues rose more than 70% to $99 million on strong client demand in active
markets. Commodities revenues were $20 million in the current period versus a
loss of $10 million a year ago.
Total expenses of $528 million increased 26% from the third quarter
of 1996.
The Market Making sector recorded pretax income of $141 million in
the third quarter of 1997, compared with $125 million in the third quarter of
1996.
Revenues for the nine month period were $2.050 billion compared with
$1.955 billion a year earlier. Expenses for the same period were $1.457 billion
compared to $1.271 billion in the nine months ended September 30, 1996.
Year-to-date pretax income was $593 million in 1997, as compared to $684 million
for the first nine months of 1996.
ASSET MANAGEMENT AND SERVICING
The Asset Management and Servicing sector includes results of our Investment
Management, Private Client Services, Futures and Options Brokerage, and
Euroclear System activities. Total revenues rose 23% to $407 million in the 1997
third quarter from a year ago.

Market Making sectors.
Expenses associated with the Asset Management and Servicing sector
were up 20%, to $339 million in the third quarter of 1997, compared with $282
million in the third quarter of 1996.
<PAGE> 21
Page 21
The Asset Management and Servicing sector recorded pretax income of
$68 million in the third quarter of 1997 compared with $48 million in the
year-earlier period.
Revenues for the nine month period increased to $1.174 billion from
$1.026 billion a year-earlier. Expenses for the same period were $959 million
versus $827 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. Year-to-date
pretax income was $215 million, as compared to $199 million for the first nine
months of 1996.
EQUITY INVESTMENTS
The Equity Investments sector includes results from our proprietary equity
investment portfolio management activities. Total reported revenues were $66
million in the third quarter, compared with $59 million a year ago. Included in
reported revenues were net gains of $54 million in the current quarter versus
$56 million a year ago. Equity Investments recorded pretax income of $56 million
in the third quarter of 1997 compared with $52 million in the third quarter of

On a total return basis, combining reported revenues with the change
in net unrealized appreciation, Equity Investments earned $176 million in the
1997 third quarter, primarily related to investments in the insurance and
financial services industries. A year ago, total return was a loss of $48
million. Total return for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, was $363
million compared with $109 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1996.
As our investment strategy covers a longer-term horizon, total return viewed
over shorter periods will reflect the impact of short-term market movements,
including industry specific events.
PROPRIETARY INVESTING AND TRADING
The Proprietary Investing and Trading sector includes results from our market
risk positioning and capital and liquidity management activities. Total reported
revenues were $241 million for the 1997 third quarter, compared with $203
million a year ago. The Proprietary Investing and Trading sector recorded pretax
income of $192 million in the third quarter of 1997, compared with $170 million
in the same period a year ago.
Revenues for the nine months of 1997 were $633 million, essentially
unchanged from $634 million in the prior year. Year-to-date pretax income was
$493 million in 1997, as compared to $525 million for the first nine months of
1996.
Total return - reported revenues plus the change in net unrealized
appreciation - for the 1997 third quarter was $173 million, compared with $165
million in 1996. Total return for the nine month period ended September 30, 1997
was $597 million compared with $360 million for the nine months ended September
30, 1996.
CORPORATE ITEMS
Corporate Items includes revenues and expenses that have not been allocated to
the five business sectors, intercompany eliminations, the taxable-equivalent
adjustment and the results of sold or discontinued businesses.
Corporate Items in the third quarter of 1996 included a $71 million
special charge related to the formation of a strategic alliance to manage parts
of the firm's global technology infrastructure. Corporate Items also includes
revenues and expenses of $30 million, in the third quarter of 1996, from custody
and cash processing activities, previously exited by Morgan.
Corporate items for the nine months of 1997 includes $80 million of
gains on hedges of anticipated foreign currency revenues and expenses. These
gains were partially offset by the impact of exchange rate movements on reported
revenues and expenses in the year-to-date period. Corporate items in 1997 also
includes a charge of $28 million incurred in connection with the renovation of
office space in New York. In addition to the $71 million special charge
discussed above, Corporate Items for the nine months of 1996 included revenues
and expenses of $106 million and $120 million respectively, related to custody
and cash processing activities, previously exited by Morgan.

CLIENT-FOCUSED ACTIVITIES BY REGION
J.P. Morgan's clients are an increasingly global and diverse group of growing
and established companies, governments and their agencies, and privately held
firms, entrepreneurs, families, and individuals. We continue to broaden and
deepen client relationships in North America; Latin America; Europe, Middle
East, and Africa; and Asia Pacific. Regional results can be analyzed in a number
of ways. In the table below, combined results for our client-focused business
sectors are broken down by region responsible for managing the client
relationship.

</TABLE>
The firm's management reporting system was used to determine the revenues and
expenses attributable to each region. For finance and advisory products, this is
the location of the client's head office; for most other products, it is based
on the location where activity is transacted. Market-making revenues that cannot
be specifically attributable to individual clients (i.e., gains/losses arising
from client-related positions) and earnings on stockholders' equity are
generally allocated based on the proportion of other regional revenues. Expenses
are allocated based on the estimated cost associated with servicing the client
base in the region.
North American client revenues increased 13% in the nine months ended September
30, 1997, compared with the corresponding period of the prior year. Finance and
advisory revenues rose on higher advisory services and debt and equity
underwriting revenues. Market making revenues increased on strong results from
equities and foreign exchange; asset management and servicing revenues also
grew.
Client revenues in Latin America rose 3% for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 versus a year ago, as strong increases in the finance and
advisory and asset management and servicing sectors were offset by declines in
the market making sector.
Client revenues in Europe were 7% higher for the year-to-date period
ended September 30, 1997, compared with the same 1996 period. Finance and
advisory revenues increased on strong advisory and underwriting revenues; asset
management and servicing also produced strong results. Offsetting such increases
were lower market making revenues as lower fixed income revenues more than
offset increases in other market making activities.
Asia Pacific client revenues grew 18% in the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 versus a year ago, driven by increases in the market making
and asset management and servicing sectors. The finance and advisory sector's
revenues were essentially unchanged.

RISK MANAGEMENT
The major risks inherent in J.P. Morgan's businesses are market, liquidity,
credit, and operating risk. Comprehensive risk management processes have been
established to facilitate, control, and monitor risk-taking. These processes are
built on a foundation of early identification and analytically rigorous
measurement of risks by each of our businesses. Refer to the 1996 Annual report
for further information.
Market Risk Profiles
The firm's primary measure of value at risk is referred to as "Daily Earnings at
Risk" (DEaR). This measure takes into account numerous variables that may cause
a change in the value of our portfolios, including interest rates, foreign
exchange rates, securities and commodities prices, and their volatilities, as
well as correlations among these variables. DEaR measures potential losses that
are expected to occur within a 95% confidence level, implying that a loss might
exceed DEaR approximately 5% of the time.
The following presents the market risk profiles for the firm for the twelve
months ended September 30, 1997. The level of market risk, which is measured on
a diversified basis, will vary with market factors, the level of client
activity, and our expectations of price and market movements.
Aggregate Market Risk Activities
For the twelve months ended September 30, 1997, average DEaR for our aggregate
trading and investing activities across all market risks was approximately $29
million and ranged from $22 million to $39 million. For the twelve months ended
December 31, 1996, average DEaR for our aggregate trading and investing
activities across all market risks was approximately $31 million and ranged from
$24 million to $44 million.
Trading Market Risk Activities
For the twelve months ended September 30, 1997, average DEaR for our trading
activities was approximately $21 million and ranged from $15 million to $28
million. Such DEaR represented the combination of interest rate risk of
approximately $16 million, foreign exchange rate risk of approximately $6
million, equities risk of approximately $7 million, commodity risk of
approximately $3 million and all other market risks of approximately $7 million,
offset by approximately ($18) million reflecting additional diversification
among these risks. For the twelve months ended December 31, 1996, average DEaR
for our trading activities was approximately $21 million and ranged from $13
million to $28 million.
We evaluate the reasonableness of DEaR by comparing DEaR to actual trading
results. The number of occurrences where daily revenue fell short of expected
daily results by amounts greater than related DEaR estimates was consistent with
statistical expectations.
Proprietary Investing Activities
The primary sources of market risk associated with our proprietary investing
activities relate to interest rate risk associated with fixed income instruments
and spread risk associated with our mortgage-backed securities portfolio. For
the twelve month period ended September 30, 1997, average DEaR for proprietary
investing activities was approximately $20 million and ranged from $12 million
to $28 million. For the twelve months ended December 31, 1996, average DEaR for
proprietary investing activities was approximately $22 million and ranged from
$10 million to $37 million.
Due to the longer-term nature of our investing activities, we use a weekly
time horizon to evaluate our risk estimates relative to total return. For the
twelve month period ended September 30, 1997, the number of occurrences where
total return fell short of expected weekly results by amounts greater than
related weekly risk estimates was consistent with statistical expectations.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
REVENUES
Revenues were $1.916 billion in the third quarter of 1997, compared
with $1.549 billion in the year ago quarter. For the nine months ended
September 30, 1997, revenues were $5.540 billion versus $5.050 billion
in the same period a year ago.
Net interest revenue, the aggregate of interest revenue and expense
generated from the firm's client-focused and proprietary activities
using a variety of asset, liability, and off-balance-sheet instruments,
increased 11% to $472 million from the third quarter of 1996. This
increase resulted primarily from higher net interest revenue from our
market-making and asset management and servicing activities, partially
offset by a decline in net interest revenue from proprietary investing
and trading positions, as a result of the continuing maturity of higher
yielding investments, principally interest rate swaps. For the first
nine months of 1997, net interest revenue increased 16% to $1.417
billion from the corresponding 1996 period.
Trading revenue was $657 million in the third quarter of 1997
compared with $510 million a year ago. Year-to-date trading revenue
decreased to $1.831 billion from $1.965 billion for the first nine
months of 1996, down 7%. The following table presents trading revenue,
disaggregated by principal product groupings, and total trading-related
net interest revenue. It does not represent total revenues generated by
our activities, and accordingly, does not reflect the integrated nature
of our business as described in Business Sector Analysis (see page 19).

Fixed income trading revenue increased to $416 million from $403
million in the year-earlier quarter. Trading revenue from equities grew
19% to $51 million. Foreign exchange trading revenue increased 32% to
$78 million from a year ago, on strong client demand in active markets.
Trading revenue from commodities was $17 million, compared with a loss
of $15 million in the 1996 third quarter. Proprietary trading revenue
grew to $95 million from $20 million in the year earlier quarter.
Investment banking revenue rose 37% to $320 million in the third
quarter of 1997, reflecting record levels of investment banking
activity. Underwriting revenue grew to $132 million from $83 million in
the year earlier quarter. Advisory and syndication fees rose to $188
million from $150 million a year ago. Investment banking revenue for
the first nine months of 1997 was $840 million, compared with $644
million for the first nine months of 1996. Underwriting revenue for the
first nine months of 1997 was $369 million, versus $259 million for the
same 1996 period. Advisory and syndication fees for the first nine
months were $471 million, compared to $385 million for the same period
of 1996.
Investment management revenue increased 23% to $201 million in the
1997 third quarter from a year ago. Assets under management were $244
billion at September 30, 1997, versus $197 billion at September 30,
1996. Investment management revenue for the first nine months of 1997
increased 18% to $584 million, over the same 1996 period.
<PAGE> 26
PAGE 26
Fees and commissions were $164 million, up 20% from $137 million in the year ago
quarter, primarily due to higher equity commissions reflecting growing market
share on U.S. and European exchanges. For the first nine months of 1997, fees
and commissions revenue was $468 million, compared to $430 million in the same
1996 period.
Investment securities revenue was $67 million in the third quarter of
1997 and $68 million in the prior year quarter. Net gains from positions
associated with our Equity Investment activities were $54 million in the current
quarter compared to $56 million a year ago. Also included in investment
securities revenue were net realized gains of $10 million and $11 million on
sales of debt investment securities in the current and year ago quarters,
respectively. For the current nine month period, investment securities revenue
was $242 million, versus $218 million for the first nine months of 1996.
Other revenue was $35 million in the third quarter, compared with $12
million a year earlier. Other revenue for the first nine months of 1997 was $158
million, compared with $82 million for the first nine months of 1996. Other
revenue includes $12 million and $85 million for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1997, respectively, of gains on hedges of anticipated foreign
currency revenues and expenses. These gains were partially offset by the impact
of exchange rate movements on reported revenues and expenses in the respective
periods.
OPERATING EXPENSES
Operating expenses were $1.326 billion in the 1997 third quarter, compared with
$1.137 billion in the third quarter of 1996. Excluding the technology-related
special charge of $71 million in last year's third quarter, 1997 third quarter
expenses grew 24% from a year earlier. The increase reflects continued spending
on investment banking, equities, and asset management capabilities and higher
levels of client-related business activity. Also contributing to the rise were
expenditures related to initiatives to prepare for the year 2000 and the
anticipated conversion to a single European currency. For the nine months ended
September 30, 1997, operating expenses were $3.758 billion, versus $3.326
billion a year ago.
At September 30, 1997, staff totaled 16,525 employees, compared with
15,188 employees at September 30, 1996.
Income tax expense in the third quarter totaled $194 million, based on
an effective tax rate of 33%, the same rate used in the year earlier quarter.
For the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, the effective tax rate
was 33%.

ASSET QUALITY
Total assets were $270 billion at September 30, 1997, compared with $250 billion
at June 30, 1997. At September 30, 1997 the aggregate allowance for credit
losses was $1.096 billion versus $1.110 billion at June 30, 1997. Nonperforming
assets decreased to $84 million at September 30, 1997, from $108 million at June
30, 1997, as assets newly classified as nonperforming were more than offset by
assets returned to performing status, repayments, and charge-offs. No provision
for credit losses was deemed necessary in the 1997 third quarter.
FOREIGN-COUNTRY-RELATED OUTSTANDINGS
Foreign-country-related outstandings represent outstandings to foreign borrowers
that are denominated in U.S. dollars or currencies other than the borrower's
local currency or, in the case of a guarantee, other than the guarantor's local
currency. Outstandings include loans, interest-earning deposits with banks,
investment securities, customers' acceptance liability, securities purchased
under agreements to resell, trading account securities, accrued interest, and
other monetary assets. Outstandings generally are distributed according to the
location and category of the borrower. In the case of guaranteed outstandings,
or when tangible, liquid collateral is held and realizable outside the obligor's
country, distribution is generally made according to the location and category
of the guarantor or the location where the collateral is held and realizable.
Countries in which J.P. Morgan's outstandings exceeded 1.0% of total assets at
September 30, 1997, are listed in the following table.

STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
Total stockholders' equity was approximately $11.6 billion at September 30,
1997. Stockholders' equity included approximately $598 million of net unrealized
appreciation on debt investment securities and marketable equity investment
securities, net the related deferred tax liability of $353 million. The net
unrealized appreciation on debt investment securities was $343 million at
September 30, 1997. The net unrealized appreciation on marketable equity
investment securities was $608 million at September 30, 1997. Included in the

REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
The capital of J.P. Morgan and Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York (Morgan
Guaranty) remained well above the minimum standards set by regulators at
September 30, 1997. Further, the capital ratios of J.P. Morgan and Morgan
Guaranty exceeded the minimum standards for a "well capitalized" bank holding
company and bank, respectively, at September 30, 1997.
As of September 30, 1997, J.P. Morgan and Morgan Guaranty adopted the Federal
Reserve Board's new market risk capital guidelines for calculation of
risk-based capital ratios, in advance of the mandatory implementation date of
January 1, 1998. The new framework amends the existing guidelines by
incorporating a measure of market risk for trading positions. In addition, the
capital and assets of the Section 20 subsidiary, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc.,
are no longer excluded from the calculations for J.P. Morgan, the bank holding
company. The effect of SFAS No. 115 continues to be excluded. Prior period
ratios have not been restated.

DERIVATIVES USED FOR PURPOSES OTHER-THAN-TRADING
The objective of J.P. Morgan's investing activities is to create
longer-term value through the management of interest rate risk related to J.P.
Morgan's nontrading assets, liabilities, and off-balance-sheet activities. J.P.
Morgan utilizes a variety of financial instruments, including derivatives, in an
integrated manner to achieve these objectives. Additional information on
derivatives used for purposes other-than-trading, primarily interest rate swaps,
is provided below. For more information about investing activities, see Note 7
to the consolidated financial statements, Off-balance-sheet financial
instruments.
The table below summarizes maturities and weighted-average interest
rates to be received and paid on U.S. dollar and non-U.S. dollar interest rate
swaps used for purposes other-than-trading at September 30, 1997. The majority
of nontrading interest rate swaps, as presented below, are risk-adjusting swaps.
Also included in the table are swaps designated as hedges or used to modify the
interest rate characteristics of assets and liabilities. Variable rates, which
reset at predetermined dates, are generally presented based on the London
Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) in effect on the swaps at September 30, 1997. The
table was prepared under the assumption that these variable interest rates
remain constant. The variable interest rates to be received or paid will change
to the extent that rates fluctuate. Such changes may be substantial.
Not included in the table below are other derivatives used for purposes
other-than-trading, such as currency swaps, basis swaps, foreign exchange
contracts, interest rate futures, forward rate agreements, debt securities
forwards, and purchased options, totaling $58.4 billion at September 30, 1997.
The contractual maturities of these derivative contracts are primarily less than
one year.
