           Bank of America Announces Earnings of $7.9 Billion for 2000



CHARLOTTE, January 16, 2001 - Bank of America Corporation today reported fourth
quarter earnings of $1.39 billion, or $.85 per share (diluted), in line with the
company's estimates last December that higher loan losses and reduced capital
markets related business associated with a slowing economy would impact results.

A year ago, the company reported net income of $1.90 billion, or $1.10 per
share, including a $213 million after-tax charge to cover costs associated with
the merger of NationsBank and BankAmerica corporations.

Cash-basis earnings - which exclude the amortization of intangibles - were $1.60
billion, or $ .98 per share, in the latest quarter.

For the full year, Bank of America's operating earnings were $7.86 billion, or
$4.72 per share. A year earlier, the company's operating earnings totaled $8.24
billion, or $4.68 per share.

The return on common equity for 2000 was 16.70 percent while the return on
average assets was 1.17 percent.

In 2000, Bank of America's net income was $7.52 billion, or $4.52 per share,
compared to $7.88 billion, or $4.48 per share, in 1999. Results in 2000 and 1999
included after-tax charges associated with growth initiatives and mergers of
$346 million and $358 million, respectively.

Fourth Quarter Financial Highlights (compared to a year ago)
------------------------------------------------------------

o Managed loans increased 9 percent to $422 billion.

o Deposits grew 5 percent to $358 billion.

o Deposit and loan growth more than offset the impact of lower spreads and the
  cost of share repurchases to produce 5 percent growth in net interest income.

o Card fee revenue rose 7 percent.

o Investment and Brokerage Service revenues were up 10 percent.

o Provision expense exceeded net charge-offs by $135 million in the fourth
  quarter of 2000.

o Results included a gain from the sale of the company's factoring unit.

Revenue
-------

Revenue declined 1 percent in the fourth quarter from the previous year, mostly
reflecting the impact of declines in the market value of equity investments and
increased lease residual charges.

Fully taxable-equivalent net interest income increased 5 percent to $4.79
billion, reflecting a 9 percent increase in earning assets, partly offset by
continued spread compression and the cost of share repurchases. Despite
moderating growth in the fourth quarter due to slowing economic conditions and
strategic efforts to reduce portfolio levels, average managed loans were 9
percent above a year ago. Deposits were up 5 percent, in part reflecting
initiatives aimed at expanding balances with core relationship customers. The
impact of lower estimated auto lease residual values reduced net interest income
by $24 million.

Noninterest income declined 8 percent to $3.30 billion, as revenue increases in
card services, investment and brokerage services and service charges were offset
by declines in equity investment gains, mortgage servicing, investment banking
and trading revenue. Debit card fees rose 25 percent as marketing efforts paid
off in a sharp increase in market penetration.

Among the factors offsetting these and other improvements were a $208 million
decline in the market value of equity investments and a $57 million increase in
auto lease residual writedowns. Trading account profits were down 8 percent
while investment banking fees declined by 7 percent from a year ago, due to the
slowdown in capital markets.

Efficiency
----------
Noninterest expense increased 2 percent to $4.64 billion, reflecting a 5 percent
reduction in personnel expense offset by higher marketing and legal expenses
plus costs related to the downsizing of operations in Columbia and Venezuela.
The efficiency ratio was 57.4 percent.

Credit Quality
--------------
As the company projected late last year, loan losses and nonperforming assets
increased significantly in the fourth quarter as the economy slowed. Higher
provision expense accounted for the majority of the decline in net income.

o The provision for credit losses in the fourth quarter was $1.21 billion
  compared to $350 million a year earlier. Provision expense exceeded net
  charge-offs by $135 million.

o Net charge-offs were $1.08 billion, or 1.07 percent of loans and leases, up
  from $501 million, or .55 percent, a year ago. Net charge-offs included a
  one-time addition of $104 million to conform to new FFIEC standards on
  consumer loans and a significant writedown of one large credit as announced in
  the company's 10-Q last November.

o Nonperforming assets were $5.5 billion, or 1.39 percent of loans, leases and
  foreclosed properties at December 31, 2000, compared to $3.2 billion, or .86
  percent a year earlier. The increase in nonperforming assets was centered in
  the commercial domestic portfolio, where nonperforming loans were up $1.7
  billion from a year earlier. A $497 million increase in consumer finance
  nonperforming loans, associated with the growth in that portfolio, also
  contributed to the rise in problem assets.

o The allowance for credit losses totaled $6.8 billion at December 31, 2000, up
  $10 million from a year ago, and equaled 1.74 percent of loans and leases.

Capital Management
------------------
Total shareholders' equity was $47.6 billion at December 31, 2000, up 7 percent
from 12 months earlier. This represented 7.42 percent of period-end assets of
$642 billion. The Tier 1 Capital Ratio was 7.50 percent.

During the quarter, the company repurchased 18 million shares. Since June 1999,
146 million shares have been repurchased, representing an investment in Bank of
America stock of $8.1 billion. Average (diluted) common shares outstanding were
1.639 billion in the fourth quarter, down 5 percent from 1.725 billion a year
earlier.

Full Year Summary
-----------------

Revenue rose 2 percent over the previous year.

Net interest income increased 2 percent to $18.76 billion.

o A 9 percent increase in managed loans and higher trading related revenues more
  than offset spread compression caused in part by a change in mix and the cost
  of share repurchases.

o The deterioration in auto lease residual values created a $107 million
  increase in auto lease residual charges to net interest income.

Noninterest income increased 3 percent to $14.49 billion.

o Card fee revenue, investment and brokerage service fees and trading revenue
  all grew by double digits.

o The absence of loan sales and securitizations, which boosted the year-ago
  results, and the impact of a $278 million increase in auto lease residual
  charges were the primary factors in reducing other income to $775 million from
  $1.5 billion.

Noninterest expense was virtually unchanged.

Deterioration in credit quality in the second half of the year resulted in
higher loan losses and provision expense.

o Provision expense rose 39 percent to $2.5 billion due to an increase in loan
  losses and nonperforming assets in the fourth quarter.

o Net charge-offs totaled $2.4 billion compared to $2.0 billion in 1999. A sharp
  increase in the fourth quarter of 2000, driven by a one-time addition of $104
  million to conform to new FFIEC standards on consumer loans and a significant
  writedown of one large credit, more than accounted for the rise.

o Nonperforming assets rose 70 percent to $5.5 billion at December 31, 2000.

o The reserve for loan losses ended 2000 at $6.8 billion, or 1.74 percent of
  loans and leases, compared to $6.8 billion, or 1.84 percent a year ago.


Consumer and Commercial Banking
-------------------------------

For the full year, Consumer and Commercial Banking earnings declined 2 percent
to $4.64 billion. Revenue declined 2 percent while expenses fell 4 percent.

The Card businesses, which include consumer, commercial, debit and government
cards and merchant processing, all achieved double-digit growth. Total card fee
revenue was up 11 percent and purchase volume rose 17 percent. Service charge
revenue was up 4 percent in the Banking Regions. A $385 million increase in auto
lease residual charges, the impact of divestitures and fewer one-time gains than
a year earlier more than offset these positive trends. Personnel expense was
lower due to growth and productivity initiatives.

Global Corporate and Investment Banking
---------------------------------------

Global Corporate and Investment Banking earnings declined 10 percent to
$2.1 billion, reflecting higher loan losses and slower capital markets activity
at the end of the year. Revenue increased 9 percent and expenses were up 11
percent.

Revenue growth in 2000 was driven by the buildout of the investment banking and
trading platforms. Global Capital Raising reported 38 percent revenue growth due
to higher investment banking fees and trading revenue. This growth resulted in a
steady increase in market shares and rankings. Bank of America ranked in the top
ten in all key product areas. The decline in earnings was primarily the result
of higher credit costs.

Asset Management
----------------

Asset Management earned $601 million, 18 percent above a year earlier. Revenue
rose 7 percent while expenses were up 2 percent.

Mutual fund fees grew 30 percent, reflecting an increase in mutual fund assets
under management during the year of almost $29 billion to $110 billion. Total
assets under management were up $30 billion to $277 billion. Higher expenses
reflected the company's investments to expand the number of private banking
offices and sales personnel across the asset management businesses.

Equity Investments
------------------

Equity Investments earned $460 million, 39 percent above a year earlier.

Revenues rose 26 percent to $864 million, driven by strong gains in strategic
investments and alliances as well as in principal investing.

Bank of America is the largest bank in the United States. With full-service
operations in 21 states and the District of Columbia, it provides financial
