NationsBank Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 - Accounting Policies
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
NationsBank Corporation and its subsidiaries (the Corporation). Significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The information contained in the consolidated financial statements is
unaudited. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments
necessary for a fair presentation of the results of interim periods have been
made. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current
period classifications.
Accounting policies followed in the presentation of interim financial
results are presented on pages 62 and 63 of the 1994 Annual Report to
Shareholders, incorporated by reference into the Annual Report on Form 10-K,
for the year ended December 31, 1994, as updated by the following and Note 1 in
the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31 and June 30,
1995.
Stock-Based Compensation
In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-
Based Compensation" which is effective for awards granted in fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1995. This standard defines a fair value based
method of measuring employee stock options or similar equity instruments. In
lieu of recording the value of such options as compensation expense, companies
may provide pro forma disclosures quantifying the difference between
compensation cost included in net income as prescribed by current accounting
standards and the related cost measured by such fair value based method. The
Corporation will provide such disclosure in its financial statements after the
effective date of the standard.
Note 2 - Acquisition Activity
On September 4, 1995, the Corporation entered into an agreement to
merge with Bank South Corporation (Bank South), headquartered in Atlanta,
Georgia. Under the terms of the merger agreement, the Corporation agreed to
exchange .44 shares of its common stock for each share of Bank South's common
stock. Bank South had 58,770,825 shares of common stock outstanding on
September 30, 1995. Bank South's total assets, total deposits and total
shareholders' equity were approximately $7.7 billion, $5.0 billion and $676
million, respectively, on September 30, 1995. This acquisition, which the
Corporation intends to account for as a pooling of interests, is subject to
approval by Bank South's shareholders and various regulatory agencies, and is
currently expected to be completed during the first quarter of 1996. This
acquisition will not have a material impact on the results of operations or
financial condition of the Corporation.

Note 4 - Debt
In the third quarter of 1995, under an effective shelf registration
statement, the Corporation issued $439 million of senior notes, due 1998 to
2002, $381 million of which bear interest at floating rates and $58 million of
which bear interest of 6.75%. Subordinated notes in the amount of $375 million
were issued with $350 million due 2015 bearing interest of 7 3/4% and the
remainder due 2010 at an interest rate of 7.20%.

<PAGE>
Under the bank note program jointly maintained by NationsBank, N.A.,
NationsBank of Georgia, N.A. and NationsBank of Texas, N.A., there were short-
term bank notes outstanding of $3.6 billion on September 30, 1995. In addition,
NationsBank of Texas, N.A. and NationsBank, N.A. had outstanding bank notes of
$1.6 billion on September 30, 1995 that were classified as long-term debt.
Subsequent to September 30, 1995 and through November 10, 1995, the
Corporation issued $450 million of 7 1/4% subordinated notes, due 2025, $155
million of senior notes which bear interest at floating rates, due 1999 to
2001, and $105 million of subordinated notes with fixed interest rates ranging
from 6.83% to 7.10%, due 2005 to 2010. On October 31, 1995, Main Place Funding
Corporation, a wholly-owned, limited-purpose finance subsidiary of NationsBank
of Texas, N.A., issued, under its shelf registration statement, $1.5 billion of
Series 1995-2 Mortgage-Backed Bonds, due 2000, bearing interest at a spread
over the three-month London interbank offered rate. This series was initially
collateralized by approximately $2.5 billion of residential mortgage notes.
On September 29, 1995, the Corporation filed a shelf registration
statement to issue up to an aggregate of $3 billion in senior or subordinated
debt or equity securities.
As of November 10, 1995, the Corporation and its subsidiaries had
approximately $1.5 billion of capacity available under various existing shelf
registration statements, other than the September 29, 1995 shelf registration
statement.
Additionally, on November 8, 1995, the Corporation announced plans to
offer up to $1.5 billion of senior or subordinated notes exclusively to
non-United States residents under a Euro medium-term note program. The notes
may bear interest at fixed or floating rates.
Note 5 - Commitments and Contingencies
The Corporation's commitments to extend credit on September 30, 1995
were $84.7 billion compared to $74.7 billion on December 31, 1994. Standby
letters of credit (SBLC) and financial guarantees represent commitments by the
Corporation to meet the obligations of the account party, if called upon.
Outstanding SBLC and guarantees on September 30, 1995 were $7.6 billion
compared to $6.9 billion on December 31, 1994. Commercial letters of credit,
issued primarily to facilitate customer trade finance activities, were $1.2
billion and $1.3 billion on September 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994,
respectively. The above amounts have been reduced by amounts collateralized by
cash and amounts participated to other financial institutions.
On September 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994, indemnified securities
lending transactions totaled $4.4 billion and $5.7 billion, respectively.
Collateral, with a market value of $4.5 billion and $5.9 billion for the
respective periods, was obtained by the Corporation in support of these
transactions.
On September 30, 1995, the Corporation had commitments to purchase and
sell when-issued securities of $5.2 billion and $5.1 billion, respectively.
This compares to commitments to purchase and sell when-issued securities of
$2.2 billion and $2.5 billion, respectively, on December 31, 1994.
See Tables 5 and 6 and the accompanying discussion in Item 2 regarding
the Corporation's derivatives used for risk management purposes.

<PAGE>
In conducting its mortgage banking activities, the Corporation is
exposed to fluctuations in interest rates. Loans originated for sale to third
parties expose the Corporation to interest rate risk for the period between
loan origination and subsequent delivery. Additionally, the value of the
Corporation's mortgage servicing rights is affected by changes in interest
rates and the resulting impact of such changes on the level of prepayments. To
manage interest rate risk associated with mortgage banking activities, the
Corporation enters into various instruments including option contracts, forward
delivery contracts and certain interest rate swaps. The contract/notional
amounts of these instruments approximated $5 billion on September 30, 1995. Net
unrealized gains associated with these contracts were not significant on
September 30, 1995.
In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation and its
subsidiaries are routinely defendants in or parties to a number of pending and
threatened legal actions and proceedings, including several actions brought on
behalf of various classes of claimants. In certain of these actions and
proceedings, substantial money damages are asserted against the Corporation and
its subsidiaries, and certain of these actions and proceedings are based on
alleged violations of consumer protection, securities, banking and other laws.
Management believes, based upon the advice of counsel, that these actions and
proceedings and losses, if any, resulting from the final outcome thereof, will
not be material in the aggregate to the Corporation's financial position or
results of operations.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and
Financial Condition
Earnings Review
A comparison of selected operating results for the three- and nine-
month periods ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 is presented in Table 1.
Net income for the third quarter of 1995 was $530 million, an increase
of 23 percent over the third quarter of 1994. Earnings per common share were
$1.95 and $1.55 for the third quarters of 1995 and 1994, respectively. The
return on average common shareholders' equity increased to 18.29 percent for
the third quarter of 1995.
Net income of $1.44 billion for the first nine months of 1995
represented an increase of 12 percent over earnings of $1.29 billion during the
same period in 1994. Earnings per common share were $5.26 and $4.66 for the
first nine months of 1995 and 1994, respectively. The return on average common
shareholders' equity was 17.02 percent for the first nine months of 1995, up 41
basis points from the prior year comparable period.
Key performance highlights for the first nine months of 1995 compared
with the same period last year were:
o Fifteen-percent growth in average loans was the primary factor
leading to the $143-million increase in taxable-equivalent net
interest income. Partially offsetting the positive impact of
loan growth was the funding of earning asset growth largely
with wholesale funds.
o Provision for credit losses totaled $240 million for both
periods. Net charge-offs were $265 million, or .33 percent of
average net loans, leases and factored receivables, versus
$218 million, or .31 percent of average levels, in the prior
year period. Nonperforming assets continued to decline with
September 30, 1995 levels $100 million lower than year-end
levels.
o Noninterest income rose $274 million, or 14 percent, to $2.23
billion for the first nine months of 1995, driven by increased
capital markets revenues, deposit service fee income,
acquisition-related mortgage servicing income and
miscellaneous other income.
o Noninterest expense increased four percent, primarily related
to acquisitions of several smaller banking organizations and
mortgage banking operations. Expenses reflect increased
investment in personnel in selected areas, higher equipment
expense and expanded marketing efforts to support revenue
growth. These increases were partially offset by declines in
other general operating expenses and FDIC insurance expense.
The efficiency ratio, which measures the relationship of
noninterest expense to total revenue, improved to 60.14
percent in the first nine months of 1995 compared to 62.00
percent in the prior year's period. After adjusting for the
impact of reduced FDIC insurance expense, management's ongoing
cost control efforts have resulted in relatively flat levels
of noninterest expense for each of the three 1995 quarters.

Business Unit Review
The Corporation manages its business activities through three major
internal management groups, or Business Units. These units, as shown in Table
2, are managed with a focus on numerous performance objectives including return
on equity, operating efficiency and net income.
The net income of the Business Units reflects the results of a funds
transfer pricing process which derives net interest income by matching assets
and liabilities with similar interest rate sensitivity and maturity
characteristics. Equity capital is allocated to each Business Unit based on an
assessment of its inherent risk.
The General Bank includes the Banking Group, which contains the retail
banking network and is the service provider for the consumer sector as well as
small and medium-size companies; Financial Products, which provides specialized
services such as credit cards, residential mortgages, indirect lending and
dealer finance; the Trust & Investment Management Group and the Private Client
Group, which offers asset management services, banking and personal trust
services.
The General Bank earned $863 million in the first nine months of 1995,
a 22-percent increase over the same period in 1994. The Banking Group,
reflecting 17-percent average loan growth, improved asset quality and growth in
fee income, accounted for most of the increased earnings over the same period
last year. The General Bank's return on equity was unchanged at 19 percent.
Taxable-equivalent net interest income in the General Bank increased $55
million as broad-based loan growth and deposit cost containment efforts helped
offset the impact of higher interest rates, as more fully discussed in the Net
Interest Income section. Average loans increased $9.7 billion, or 17 percent,
primarily in the Banking Group, with increased residential mortgages, and in
Financial Products, which experienced strong credit card loan growth.
Noninterest income rose 16 percent to $1.5 billion, led by increases
in deposit service fee income, acquisition-related mortgage servicing income,
acquisition of the third party interest in the Corporation's full service
brokerage company and miscellaneous income. Noninterest expense increased $77
million, reflecting several mortgage and banking acquisitions, the full service
brokerage acquisition and expanded marketing efforts, primarily credit card
solicitations. These increased expenses were partly offset by reduced FDIC
insurance expense. With seven-percent growth in revenues and three-percent
expense growth, the efficiency ratio improved 229 basis points.
The Global Finance unit includes Corporate Finance, Specialized
Finance and the Capital Markets group. Included under Specialized Finance are
Real Estate, Specialized Lending (includes Business Credit, Factoring and
Leasing), Structured Finance (asset-backed and project financing), Real Estate
Finance, Leveraged Capital and International. The Capital Markets group
includes securities trading and debt underwriting, customer-related derivatives
and foreign exchange activities. Housed in this group are NationsBanc-CRT, the
derivatives and foreign exchange trading and sales operating unit, and
NationsBanc Capital Markets Inc., which, with its Section 20/Tier II powers,
underwrites and deals in various types of corporate debt and has the authority
to underwrite and deal in equity securities.

<PAGE>
The Global Finance unit earned $472 million in the first nine months
of 1995, a one-percent decrease from the same period in 1994. The return on
equity was 16 percent compared to 17 percent for 1994. Taxable-equivalent net
interest income for the first nine months of 1995 increased $14 million over
the same period a year ago. The benefit to net interest income of the $3.3-
billion, or 11-percent, increase in average loans was partially offset by the
increased use of foreign time deposits to support earning asset growth, as more
fully discussed in the Net Interest Income section. Loan growth, primarily
commercial, was concentrated in the Corporate Finance and Specialized Lending
units, while the Real Estate unit reduced average outstandings by $538 million
compared to last year. Asset quality continued to improve, though at a slower
pace than in 1994, leading to no provision for credit losses during the first
nine months of 1995.
Noninterest income increased 10 percent over last year, primarily
related to significant growth in investment banking fees. Continued investment
aimed at expanding Capital Markets-related activities, mostly personnel-
related, contributed to the $36-million increase in noninterest expense.
Financial Services, the Corporation's nonbank subsidiary which offers
a wide variety of financing to small and large corporations, consumers,
retailers, manufacturers and distributors, contributed $89 million of net
income for the first nine months of 1995, a 22-percent increase from a year
ago. This improvement, the result of $1.7-billion, or 31-percent, growth in
average loans and leases, was partly offset by a higher provision for credit
losses to support loan growth. Market demand in the consumer lending,
commercial real estate and inventory finance businesses coupled with new office
expansion in consumer lending contributed to loan growth. The net interest
yield of 7.25 percent was down 25 basis points from the first nine months of
1994, due to higher funding costs. Noninterest expense increased $27 million,
or 17 percent, driven by the expansion of consumer finance operations. The
efficiency ratio of 42.80 percent for the first nine months of 1995 improved
from 45.83 percent for the same period last year, due to loan growth and
productivity improvements.
Net Interest Income
As presented in Table 3, taxable-equivalent net interest income
increased $90 million to $1.4 billion in the third quarter of 1995 compared to
the third quarter of 1994. Average earning asset levels increased $19.0 billion
in the third quarter of 1995 compared to the third quarter of 1994, driven by
growth in average loans and leases of $15.5 billion, or 16 percent.
Additionally, the aggregate of average securities purchased under agreements to
resell and trading account securities increased, reflecting expanded trading-
related activities. The increase in net interest income resulting primarily
from loan growth, deposit cost containment efforts and the maturities and sales
of lower-yielding investment securities was partially offset by the use of
higher cost market-based funds to support earning asset growth. Future loan
growth is dependent on economic conditions, decisions to securitize certain
loan portfolios, the retention of residential mortgage loans generated by the
Corporation's mortgage subsidiary and the management of real estate loan
levels.
The net interest yield of 3.35 percent in the third quarter of 1995
reflected the funding of loan growth principally with market-based funds and
the addition of $4.6 billion in low-spread trading-related assets when compared
to the third quarter of 1994.
13
<PAGE>
As presented in Table 4, taxable-equivalent net interest income
increased $143 million to $4.1 billion in the first nine months of 1995
compared to the same period of 1994, due to an increase in taxable-equivalent
interest income of $2.3 billion offset by an increase in interest expense of
$2.1 billion. Growth in average earning assets drove $1.1 billion of the $2.3
billion-increase in taxable-equivalent interest income, while $1.2 billion was
related to a 98-basis point rise in the yield on earning assets. Led by a 15-
percent increase in average loans and leases, average earning assets increased
$20.1 billion, or 14 percent, in the first nine months of 1995 compared to the
same period of 1994. Loan growth included residential mortgages, other consumer
and commercial loans and was spread across Business Units with 17-percent, 11-
percent and 31-percent growth in the General Bank, Global Finance and Financial
Services, respectively. In addition, average securities purchased under
agreements to resell and trading account securities increased, reflecting
expanded trading-related activities. The combined securities portfolio declined
$1.2 billion between the two periods, resulting from maturities and sales of
securities partially offset by new investments.
Growth in average interest-bearing liabilities accounted for $604
million of the $2.1-billion increase in interest expense, while $1.5 billion
was attributable to a 144-basis point rise in rates paid. Average interest-
bearing liabilities increased $18.9 billion, or 15 percent, in the first nine
months of 1995 compared to the same period of 1994. Interest-bearing deposits
grew $6.5 billion to $78.6 billion in 1995 compared to the same period of 1994.
An increase in average foreign time deposits of $8.1 billion, as well as
deposit increases resulting from acquisitions, were the primary factors in this
growth. These increases were partially offset by declines in certain interest-
bearing deposit accounts, reflecting industry-wide trends of customers seeking
higher-yielding investment alternatives as well as the Corporation's
disciplined deposit pricing. Borrowed funds and trading account liabilities
increased to $57.0 billion, funding earning asset growth. Average long-term
debt increased $3.1 billion period-over-period to $11.1 billion, primarily due
to issuances of medium-term notes and other debt instruments. Average
noninterest-bearing deposits increased $888 million during the first nine
months of 1995 compared to the same period of 1994.
The yield on average earning assets increased 98 basis points to 8.00
percent between the two nine-month periods. The yield on total loans and leases
increased 68 basis points to 8.80 percent in the first nine months of 1995,
reflecting loan growth in a higher interest rate environment and the variable-
rate nature of a significant portion of the loan portfolio. The Corporation's
average prime interest rate rose from 6.81 percent in the first nine months of
1994 to 8.87 percent in the first nine months of 1995. The yield on total
securities increased 76 basis points to 5.78 percent compared to the same
period of 1994, due to maturities and sales of lower-yielding securities
coupled with investment at higher rates mainly during the first half of 1995.
The rate on average interest-bearing liabilities increased 144 basis
points to 5.31 percent in the first nine months of 1995 from 3.87 percent in
the first nine months of 1994, due to a greater use of market-based funds and
the higher level of interest rates in general.
The net interest yield was 3.31 percent in the first nine months of
1995 compared to 3.64 percent in the same period of 1994. The decline in the
net interest yield for the first nine months of 1995 compared to the same
period of 1994 resulted from the funding of loan growth principally with
market-based funds and growth of $6.9 billion in trading-related assets. Had
the relative mix of low-spread trading-related assets to total average earning
assets remained constant in the first nine months of 1995 compared to the same
period of 1994, the net interest yield would have been nine basis points higher
for the first nine months of 1995.

<PAGE>
The Corporation's asset and liability management process is utilized
to manage the Corporation's interest rate risk through structuring the balance
sheet and off-balance sheet portfolios to maximize net interest income while
maintaining acceptable levels of risk to changes in market interest rates. In
implementing strategies to manage interest rate risk, the primary tools used by
the Corporation are the discretionary portfolio, which is comprised of the
securities portfolio and interest rate swaps, and the management of the mix,
rates and maturities of the wholesale and retail funding sources of the
Corporation.
Swaps allow the Corporation to adjust its interest rate risk position
without exposure to principal risk and funding requirements as swaps do not
involve the exchange of notional amounts, only net interest payments. The
Corporation uses non-leveraged generic, index amortizing, collateralized
mortgage obligation (CMO) and basis swaps. Generic swaps involve the exchange
of fixed and variable interest rates based on the contractual underlying
notional amounts. Index amortizing and CMO swaps also involve the exchange of
fixed and variable interest rates; however, their notional amounts decline and
their maturities vary based on certain interest rate indices in the case of
index amortizing swaps, or mortgage prepayment rates in the case of CMO swaps.
Basis swaps involve the exchange of payments based on the contractual
underlying notional amounts where both the pay rate and the receive rate are
floating rates based on different indices.
As reflected in Table 5, the gross notional amount of the
Corporation's asset and liability management interest rate swap position on
September 30, 1995 was $24.9 billion, with the Corporation receiving fixed on
$14.5 billion, converting variable-rate commercial loans to fixed rate and
converting the cost of certain long-term debt to variable rate, and receiving
variable on $10.0 billion, fixing the cost of certain variable-rate
liabilities, primarily market-based borrowed funds. On September 30, 1995, the
net receive fixed position was $4.5 billion, representing a reduction from the
net receive fixed position of $8.9 billion on December 31, 1994, and $9.1
billion on September 30, 1994.
Net interest receipts and payments have been included in interest
income and expense on the underlying instruments. Asset and liability
management interest rate swaps resulted in a reduction of net interest income
of $193 million in the first nine months of 1995 compared to an increase of $86
million in the first nine months of 1994. Deferred gains and losses related to
terminated contracts are insignificant.
The net unrealized depreciation on September 30, 1995 was $196 million
compared to $726 million on December 31, 1994, reflecting the reduction in
interest rates and maturities.
The unrealized depreciation in the estimated value of the asset and
liability management swap portfolio should be viewed in the context of the
overall balance sheet. The value of any single component of the balance sheet
or off-balance sheet position should not be viewed in isolation. The overall
impact of a 100-basis point parallel increase in interest rates from September
30, 1995 levels was estimated to have an insignificant impact on the market
value of equity.
Average securities for the first nine months of 1995 totaled $26.5
billion, a decrease of $1.2 billion from the same period of 1994. Beginning in
the second quarter of 1994, the Corporation did not fully replace maturities
and sales of securities. In light of expected market conditions, the
Corporation began to add to securities levels late in the first quarter and
during the second quarter of 1995, essentially investing the majority of
maturities scheduled for the second half of 1995 prior to their maturity.
Additionally, during the third quarter of 1995, net maturities and sales of
securities were $3.6 billion. The yield on securities was 5.78 percent for the
first nine months of 1995 compared to 5.02 percent in the same period of 1994.
The weighted average yield of the securities portfolio on September 30, 1995,
was 5.99 percent. See Analysis of Financial Condition - Securities for further
details on the securities portfolio.
15
<PAGE>
On September 30, 1995, the interest rate risk position of the
Corporation continued to be relatively neutral as the impact of a gradual 100-
basis-point rise or fall in interest rates over the next 12 months was
estimated to have an insignificant impact on net income when compared to stable
rates.
Table 7 represents the Corporation's interest rate gap position on
September 30, 1995. Based on contractual maturities or repricing dates, or
anticipated dates where no contractual maturity or repricing date exists,
interest-sensitive assets and liabilities are placed in maturity categories.
The Corporation's negative cumulative interest rate gap position in the near
term reflects the strong customer-deposit gathering franchise which provides a
relatively stable core deposit base. These available funds have been deployed
in longer-term interest-earning assets including certain loans and securities.
A gap analysis is limited in its usefulness as it represents a one-day position
that is continually changing and is not necessarily indicative of the
Corporation's position at any other time. Additionally, the gap analysis does
not consider the many factors accompanying interest rate movements.
Provision for Credit Losses
The provision for credit losses was $100 million and $240 million in
the third quarter and first nine months of 1995, respectively, compared to $70
million and $240 million in the comparable 1994 periods. The level of the
provision in the third quarter is consistent with loan growth and credit
quality, as more fully discussed in the Allowance for Credit Losses section.
Future economic conditions may impact credit quality.
Noninterest Income
Table 8 compares the major categories of noninterest income for the
three- and nine-month periods of 1995 and 1994. Noninterest income totaled $776
million in the third quarter of 1995, an increase of 20 percent from $649
million in the same quarter of 1994. Noninterest income totaled $2.23 billion
in the first nine months of 1995, an increase of 14 percent from $1.96 billion
in the first nine months of 1994.
Service charges on deposit accounts increased $28 million and $53
million for the third quarter and first nine months of 1995, respectively, from
the comparable 1994 periods, primarily reflecting higher fees, increased
consumer account volumes, in part due to smaller banking organization
acquisitions, and emphasis on fee collections.
Mortgage servicing and related fees totaled $37 million in the third
quarter of 1995, an increase of 76 percent from the same quarter of 1994.
Mortgage servicing and related fees totaled $92 million in the first nine
months of 1995, an increase of 59 percent from the first nine months of 1994.
The increase was primarily attributable to the acquisitions of mortgage
servicing portfolios. In the latter part of 1994, the Corporation's mortgage
subsidiary acquired $7.6 billion in servicing, and on March 31, 1995, an
additional $35 billion was acquired. The total servicing portfolio on September
30, 1995, was $79.4 billion. Mortgage loan originations through the
Corporation's mortgage subsidiary totaled $4.0 billion for the third quarter of
1995 compared to $1.4 billion for the third quarter of 1994 and totaled $8.1
billion for the first nine months of 1995 compared to $5.4 billion for the
first nine months of 1994, primarily reflecting changes in the interest rate
environment. Third quarter 1995 origination volume consisted of approximately
$2.3 billion of retail loan volume and $1.7 billion of correspondent loan
volume.

<PAGE>
The 92-percent increase in investment banking income in the third
quarter of 1995 and the 80-percent increase in the first nine months of 1995
compared to the same 1994 periods were the result of higher syndication fees,
increased venture capital income and increased fee income associated with
arranging asset-backed financings. The Capital Markets syndication group was
agent or co-agent on 257 deals totaling $184 billion during the first nine
months of 1995 compared to 241 deals totaling $139 billion during the same
period in 1994.
General Bank trust fees for the third quarter and the first nine
months of 1995 were relatively flat compared to the same periods in 1994. On
September 30, 1995, discretionary assets under management and total assets
under administration were $62.2 billion and $174.3 billion, respectively,
compared to $57.4 billion and $163.6 billion, respectively, on December 31,
1994.
During the first quarter of 1995, the Corporation announced its
decision to sell a portion of its trust business that deals with bond servicing
and administration, known as Corporate Trust. This decision was based on
management's desire to focus on investment management, retirement and fiduciary
services. On June 1, 1995, the Corporation announced that it had reached a
definitive agreement, on the sale of this business, which is expected to close
around year end. Historically, the Corporate Trust business has generated
approximately 10 percent of the Corporation's trust fees. Management does not
expect the loss of this revenue to have a significant impact on future net
income.
The higher levels of brokerage income for both 1995 periods are due to
the acquisition of the third party interest in the Corporation's full service
brokerage company. This company was a joint venture arrangement prior to
November 15, 1994, and was accounted for under the equity method.
The Corporation maintains trading positions in a variety of cash and
derivative financial instruments. The Corporation offers a number of products
to customers, as well as enters into transactions for its own account. In
setting trading strategies, the Corporation manages these activities to
maximize trading revenues while, at the same time, taking controlled risks.
Trading revenues are dependent on a number of factors, including
economic conditions such as interest rate and currency fluctuations. Trading
account profits and fees increased $26 million to $98 million in the third
quarter of 1995 compared to the third quarter of 1994 and increased $14 million
to $243 million in the first nine months of 1995 compared to the first nine
months of 1994. An analysis of trading account profits and fees by major
business activity for the nine months ended September 30 is as follows (dollars
in millions):

Miscellaneous other income totaled $64 million in the third quarter of
1995 compared to $59 million in the third quarter of 1994 and totaled $230
million in the first nine months of 1995 compared to $184 million in the first
nine months of 1994. This category of miscellaneous income includes certain
prepayment fees and other fees such as net gains on sales of miscellaneous
investments, business activities, premises, venture capital investments,
mortgage servicing and other similar items.
Noninterest Expense
The Corporation's noninterest expense, as shown in Table 9, increased
$11 million, or one percent, in the third quarter of 1995 compared to the same
quarter in 1994, to a total of $1.25 billion. For the first nine months of
1995, noninterest expense increased $140 million, or four percent, compared to
the first nine months of 1994, to a total of $3.82 billion. Increased
expenditures in selected areas to support the continued growth in revenues
coupled with the acquisitions of several smaller banking organizations, several
mortgage banking operations and the third party interest in the Corporation's
full service brokerage company were partially offset by reduced expenses
associated with the sale of the merchant discount credit card services unit
during the second quarter of 1995 and lower FDIC insurance.
Included in the various components of noninterest expense are the
costs of ongoing initiatives related to enhancing customer sales and optimizing
product delivery channels. For example, the Model Banking project is being
implemented across the Corporation's franchise to facilitate and enhance the
General Bank's retail customer sales and product delivery. Other projects
include the development of alternative delivery channels, such as PC-based
banking, and activities to define and achieve optimal composition of customer
delivery channels.
Personnel expense, which accounts for approximately one half of
noninterest expense, increased $41 million in the third quarter of 1995 and
$164 million in the first nine months of 1995 compared to the comparable prior-
year periods. Of the $41-million quarter-over-quarter increase, $19 million was
due to acquisitions. Continued investment in personnel for the Capital Markets
group also contributed to the increase in personnel expense.
Compared to the respective prior-year periods, equipment expense
increased $6 million in the third quarter and $23 million in the first nine
months of 1995. These increases were primarily due to enhancements to computer
resources, including higher rental expense for upgraded mainframe equipment and
increased costs related to product delivery systems.
Marketing expense increased 29 percent in the third quarter and 33
percent in the first nine months of 1995. This increase was driven primarily by
increased credit card solicitations in the Financial Products group.
FDIC insurance expense decreased $51 million in the third quarter and
decreased $54 million in the first nine months of 1995 relative to the
comparable periods in 1994. FDIC insurance expense in the third quarter of 1995
reflected a quarterly expense reduction of $37 million due to a decrease in
insurance rates charged by the FDIC and an additional refund of $11 million
relating to insurance payments in the second quarter of 1995.
18
<PAGE>
Other general operating expense remained flat in the third quarter of
1995 compared to the third quarter of 1994 and decreased $34 million in the
first nine months of 1995 compared to the first nine months of 1994. This
decrease was primarily due to lower loan and collection expenses.
Congressional discussions to enact legislation to recapitalize the
Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF) may result in a one-time assessment
as early as the fourth quarter of 1995 on the Corporation's SAIF-insured
deposits at a currently estimated rate ranging from 66 to 85 basis points per
$100 of such deposits. On September 30, 1995, the amount of deposits which
would be subject to such proposed assessment approximates $5.3 billion.
Income Taxes
The Corporation's income tax expense was $763 million and $682 million
in the first nine months of 1995 and 1994, respectively, for an effective rate
of 35 percent of pretax income for both periods. Income tax expense for the
third quarter of 1995 was $288 million, for an effective rate of 35 percent.
Tax expense for the same quarter of 1994 was $222 million, resulting in an
effective rate of 34 percent.
Analysis of Financial Condition
Liquidity, a measure of the Corporation's ability to fulfill its cash
requirements, is managed by the Corporation through its asset and liability
management process. This entails measuring and managing the relative balance
between asset, liability and off-balance sheet positions. This process, coupled
with the Corporation's ability to raise equity and debt financing and to
securitize certain assets, ensures the maintenance of sufficient funds to meet
the liquidity needs of the Corporation. The Corporation continues to diversify
its funding sources as evidenced by its recent Eurobond offering, mortgage-
backed bond issuances and securitizations.
Table 10 presents an analysis of the major sources and uses of funds
for the two nine-month periods based on average levels.
Market-based funds increased 30 percent and represented 39 percent of
total sources of funds in the first nine months of 1995 compared to 34 percent
of total sources in the same period of 1994. Customer-based funds remained
relatively flat; however, they represented 45 percent of total sources of funds
in the first nine months of 1995, down from 51 percent of total sources in the
same period of 1994.
The composition of uses of funds reflected a 15-percent increase in
average loans and leases to $107.8 billion in the first nine months of 1995
compared to the same period one year earlier. Expanded trading-related
activities resulted in higher levels of securities purchased under agreements
to resell and trading account securities.
The Corporation's ratio of average loans to customer-based funds was
129 percent for the first nine months of 1995 compared to 111 percent for the
first nine months of 1994. The higher loan to deposit ratio was driven by loan
growth of 15 percent, flat levels of customer-based deposits resulting from
disciplined deposit pricing and the use of market-based funds to support
earning asset growth.

<PAGE>
Cash and cash equivalents decreased $2.2 billion from December 31,
1994 to $7.4 billion on September 30, 1995, due to $4.1 billion in net cash
used by operating activities and $5.8 billion in net cash used in investing
activities, offset by $7.7 billion in net cash provided by financing
activities.
Net cash used in investing activities primarily reflected $9.3 billion
in net originations of loans and leases and $4.2 billion in purchases of loans
and leases, offset by a net decrease of $4.3 billion in federal funds sold and
securities purchased under agreements to resell, proceeds from sales and
securitizations of loans of $2.1 billion and net proceeds from sales and
maturities of securities of $2.7 billion.
Net cash provided by financing activities primarily resulted from $7.3
billion in proceeds from net issuances of long-term debt.
Period-end assets were $182.1 billion and $169.6 billion on September
30, 1995 and December 31, 1994, respectively. The following discussion analyzes
the major changes in the period-end balance sheet from December 31, 1994 to
September 30, 1995.
Securities
The securities portfolio on September 30, 1995 consisted of securities
held for investment totaling $13.7 billion and securities available for sale
totaling $9.8 billion compared to $17.8 billion and $8.0 billion, respectively,
on December 31, 1994.
On September 30, 1995, the Corporation's portfolio of securities held
for investment reflected net unrealized appreciation of $48 million compared to
net unrealized depreciation of $699 million on December 31, 1994.
The valuation amount for securities available for sale and marketable
equity securities increased shareholders' equity by $104 million on September
30, 1995, reflecting $72 million and $90 million of pretax appreciation on
securities available for sale and marketable equity securities, respectively.
The valuation amount reduced shareholders' equity by $136 million on December
31, 1994. The appreciation in both securities held for investment and
securities available for sale from year-end 1994 was primarily due to the
levels of securities combined with the general level of interest rates during
the first nine months of 1995.
The estimated average maturity of the combined securities portfolio
was 2.76 years on September 30, 1995, and 2.56 years on December 31, 1994, a
reflection of the investment activity which occurred primarily in the first
half of 1995.
Loans
Loans and leases, net of unearned income, on September 30, 1995 and
December 31, 1994, were $113.3 billion and $102.4 billion, respectively.
Approximately $5.5 billion of the increase in loans and leases was in
the residential mortgages category which increased to $22.8 billion on
September 30, 1995. Increased originations through the Corporation's mortgage
subsidiary coupled with retention of a substantial portion of these loans by
the Corporation's bank subsidiaries were the primary factors leading to the
increase in this category.
Commercial loans increased approximately $2.3 billion from December
31, 1994 to $46.9 billion on September 30, 1995. Almost one half of this growth
occurred in the General Bank. Real estate commercial and construction
outstandings of $9.7 billion on September 30, 1995 reflected a net decline of
$626 million from December 31, 1994 levels and comprised 8.6 percent of the
total loans and leases portfolio on September 30, 1995 compared to 10.1 percent
at the end of 1994.
20
<PAGE>
Other consumer loans increased approximately $2.5 billion from
December 31, 1994 to $23.0 billion on September 30, 1995. The General Bank
accounted for approximately two-thirds of the increase, while Financial
Services accounted for the remaining one-third of the increase.
Nonperforming Assets
On September 30, 1995, nonperforming assets, as presented in Table 11,
were $1.04 billion, or .90 percent of net loans, leases, factored accounts
receivable and other real estate owned, compared to $1.14 billion, or 1.10
percent, on December 31, 1994.
Nonperforming loans totaled $848 million on September 30, 1995
compared to $801 million on December 31, 1994. The net increase in
nonperforming loans from December 31, 1994 reflected $80 million of in-
substance foreclosed loans previously reported as other real estate owned
offset by decreases in certain nonperforming loan categories. After reflecting
this change in the December 31, 1994 amounts, nonperforming loans decreased $33
million, primarily reflecting a decrease of $97 million in nonperforming real
estate commercial and construction loans offset by increases of $22 million and
$47 million in nonperforming commercial and total consumer loans, respectively.
Other real estate owned, which represents real estate acquired through
foreclosure, totaled $190 million on September 30, 1995, a net decline of $147
million, or 44 percent, from December 31, 1994.
On January 1, 1995, the Corporation adopted Financial Accounting
Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 114 "Accounting
by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan" (SFAS 114). See Tables 11 and 12 and the
Allowance for Credit Losses section.
Allowance for Credit Losses
On September 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994, the allowance for credit
losses was $2.2 billion and represented 1.89 percent and 2.11 percent,
respectively, of loans, leases and factored accounts receivable.
The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans
was 256 percent on September 30, 1995 compared to 273 percent at year-end 1994.
Table 12 provides an analysis of the changes in the allowance for
credit losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994.
The provision for credit losses for the third quarter of 1995 was $30 million
higher than in the previous five quarters, reflecting loan growth principally
in the consumer loan portfolios. Total net charge-offs for the third quarter of
1995 were $99 million, or .35 percent of average loans, leases and factored
accounts receivable, versus $64 million, or .27 percent, in the comparable
three-month period in 1994. Total net charge-offs for the first nine months of
1995 were $265 million, or .33 percent of average loans, leases and factored
accounts receivable, compared to $218 million, or .31 percent, in the same
period of 1994. Net charge-offs in the credit card and other consumer loan
portfolios increased $36 million and $38 million, respectively, for the first
nine months of 1995 relative to the comparable 1994 period. As a percentage of
average credit card loans, net credit card charge-offs increased to 3.13
percent in the first nine months of 1995 compared to 2.66 percent for the same
period of 1994. Other consumer loan net charge-offs as a percentage of other
consumer average loans were .80 percent and .62 percent for the first nine
months of 1995 and 1994, respectively. These increases resulted from strong
loan growth that generally leads to higher charge-offs as the portfolios
season. Future economic conditions may also impact credit quality.
21
<PAGE>
On September 30, 1995, the recorded investment in certain loans that
are considered to be impaired under SFAS 114 was $634 million, all of which was
classified as nonperforming. Provision expense associated with impaired loans
approximated $22 million for the first nine months of 1995. The average
recorded investment in certain impaired loans during the nine months ended
September 30, 1995 was approximately $674 million. During the nine months ended
September 30, 1995, interest income recognized on impaired loans totaled $21
million, all of which was recognized on a cash basis.
Capital
Shareholders' equity totaled $11.9 billion on September 30, 1995
compared to $11.0 billion on December 31, 1994. Under common stock repurchase
programs, the Corporation repurchased and retired 9.7 million common shares
during the first nine months of 1995 at a cost of $522 million, including
approximately 3.8 million shares to offset shares issued through dividend
reinvestment and stock option and grant programs. The level of share repurchase
activities may be impacted by pending acquisitions.
The valuation reserve for securities held for sale and marketable
equity securities increased shareholders' equity $104 million on September 30,
1995 compared to a reduction of $136 million on December 31, 1994.
The Corporation's Tier 1 capital ratios were 7.16 percent and 7.43
percent on September 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994, respectively. The total
risk-based capital ratios were 11.23 percent and 11.47 percent on September 30,
1995 and December 31, 1994, respectively. Both of these measures compare
favorably with regulatory minimums. Decreases in these ratios resulted
primarily from increases in the level of the Corporation's risk weighted
assets, primarily loans and loan commitments. The Corporation's leverage ratios
were 5.96 percent and 6.18 percent on September 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994,
respectively. The decrease in the leverage ratio was primarily a result of an
increase in average assets, mainly loans and trading-related assets.
On October 25, 1995, the Board of Directors authorized a 16-percent
increase in the quarterly dividend paid on common shares outstanding from $.50
to $.58 per share as of the next dividend declaration date.
Derivative - Dealer Positions
Within the Corporation's Credit Policy organization, a group is
dedicated to managing credit risks associated with trading activities. The
Corporation maintains trading positions in a number of markets and with a
variety of counterparties or obligors (counterparties). To limit credit
exposure arising from such transactions, the Corporation evaluates the credit
standing of counterparties, establishes limits for the total exposure to any
one counterparty, monitors exposure against the established limits and monitors
trading portfolio composition to manage concentrations.
22
<PAGE>
Counterparties are subject to the credit approval and credit
monitoring policies and procedures of the Corporation. Certain instruments
require the Corporation or the counterparty to maintain collateral for all or
part of the exposure. Generally, such collateral is in the form of cash or
other highly liquid instruments. Limits for exposure to any particular
counterparty are established and monitored. In certain jurisdictions,
counterparty risk is also reduced through the use of legally enforceable master
netting agreements, which allow the Corporation to settle positions with the
same counterparty on a net basis. The contract or notional amounts associated
with the Corporation's derivative-dealer positions are reflected in Table 13.
The notional or contract amounts indicate the total volume of transactions and
significantly exceed the amount of the Corporation's credit or market risk
associated with these instruments. The Corporation's exposure to credit risk
from derivative financial instruments is represented by the fair value of the
instruments. Credit risk represents the replacement cost the Corporation could
incur should counterparties with contracts in a gain position to the
Corporation completely fail to perform under the terms of those contracts and
any collateral underlying the contracts proves to be of no value to the
Corporation. Such aggregate amounts measured by the Corporation as the positive
replacement cost on September 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994, were $3.7 billion
and $1.8 billion, respectively. Of these credit risk amounts, $494 million and
$354 million relates to exchange-traded instruments for 1995 and 1994,
respectively. Because exchange-traded instruments conform to standard terms and
are subject to policies set by the exchange involved, including counterparty
approval, margin requirements and security deposit requirements, the credit
risk to the Corporation is minimal. The $1.9-billion increase in the credit
risk amount from December 31, 1994 is related to expanded derivatives trading
activities coupled with the effects of underlying market movements.

(1) Nonperforming loans are included in the respective average loan balances. Income on such nonperforming loans is
recognized on a cash basis.
(2) Commercial loan interest income includes the impact of interest rate swaps converting variable-rate commercial
loans to fixed rate. Interest rate swaps decreased interest income $49, $65 and $61 in the third, second
and first quarters of 1995, respectively, and $32 and $0 in the fourth and third quarters of 1994, respectively.
(3) The average balance sheet amounts and yields on securities available for sale are based on the average of historical
amortized cost balances.
(4) Unrealized gains and losses on off-balance sheet trading positions are reported in other assets and liabilities,
respectively.
(5) Interest income includes taxable-equivalent adjustments of $29, $31 and $28 in the third, second and first quarters
of 1995, respectively, and $26 and $24 in the fourth and third quarters of 1994, respectively.
(6) Borrowed funds and trading account liabilities interest expense includes net interest rate swap expense related to
swaps fixing the cost of certain variable-rate liabilities, primarily market-based funds. Such increases (decreases)
in interest expense were $4, $(2) and $12 in the third, second and first quarters of 1995, respectively, and $20 and
$9 in the fourth and third quarters of 1994, respectively.

(1) Nonperforming loans are included in the respective average loan balances. Income on such nonperforming loans is
recognized on a cash basis.
(2) Commercial loan interest income includes the impact of interest rate swaps converting variable-rate commercial
loans to fixed rate. Interest rate swaps increased (decreased) interest income ($175) and $94 in 1995 and 1994,
respectively.
(3) The average balance sheet amounts and yields on securities available for sale are based on the average of historical
amortized cost balances.
(4) Unrealized gains and losses on off-balance sheet trading positions are reported in other assets and liabilities,
respectively.
(5) Interest income includes taxable-equivalent adjustments of $88 and $68 in 1995 and 1994, respectively.
(6) Borrowed funds and trading account liabilities interest expense includes net interest rate swap expense related to
swaps fixing the cost of certain variable-rate liabilities, primarily market-based funds. Such increases in interest
expense were $14 and $11 in 1995 and 1994, respectively.

Floating rates represent the last repricing and will change in the future based primarily on movements in one, three
and six month LIBOR.
Maturities for CMO and amortizing swaps are based on interest rates implied by the forward curve on September 30, 1995,
and may differ from actual maturities, depending on future interest rate movements and resultant prepayment patterns.
On September 30, 1995, in addition to the above interest rate swaps, the Corporation had approximately $1.2 billion
notional of receive fixed generic interest rate swaps associated primarily with a credit card securitization.
On September 30, 1995, these positions had an unrealized market value of negative $26 million, a weighted average
receive rate of 5.19 percent, a pay rate of 6.00 percent and an average maturity of 4.01 years.
Additionally, the Corporation had $80 million notional of asset and liability management interest rate caps and
floors with an insignificant market value.

Exhibit 11
Fully Diluted Earnings Per Common Share and Fully Diluted Average Common Shares
Outstanding
For fully diluted earnings per common share, net income available to
common shareholders can be affected by the conversion of the registrant's
convertible preferred stock. Where the effect of this conversion would have
been dilutive, net income available to common shareholders is adjusted by the
associated preferred dividends. This adjusted net income is divided by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding for each period plus
amounts representing the dilutive effect of stock options outstanding and the
dilution resulting from the conversion of the registrant's convertible
preferred stock, if applicable. The effect of convertible preferred stock is
excluded from the computation of fully diluted earnings per common share in
periods in which the effect would be antidilutive.
Fully diluted earnings per common share was determined as follows (shares
in thousands, dollars in millions except per-share information):
