                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
                                    --------


To the Trustee and Participants of the Folksamerica Holding Company
 401(k) Savings and Investment Plan:

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits and the related statements of changes in net assets available for
plan benefits present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets
available for Plan benefits of the Folksamerica Holding Company 401(k)
Savings and Investment Plan (the "Plan") at December 31, 1998 and 1997, and
the changes in its net assets available for Plan benefits for the years ended
December 31, 1998 and 1997 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's
management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of assets held
for investment purposes and reportable transactions are presented for the
purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic
financial statements but are supplementary information required by the
Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA"). These
supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's management. The
supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in
the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly
stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole.


The schedule of assets held for investment purposes that accompanies the Plan's
financial statements does not disclose the historical costs of certain Plan
assets held by the Plan trustee. Disclosure of this information is required by
the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure
under ERISA.

1.   THE PLAN:


DESCRIPTION OF PLAN

The following brief description of the Folksamerica Holding Company 401(k)
Savings and Investment Plan (the "Plan") is provided for general information
purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for more
complete information. Participants in the Plan include employees of
Folksamerica Holding Company, Inc. (the "Company").

The Plan was originally established on January 1, 1981 to provide retirement
benefits for eligible employees of the Company. The Plan was amended on October
1, 1994 to reflect a change in asset managers.

The Plan is a defined contribution plan subject to the provisions of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). The Company contributes
to the Plan the total amount of salary reduction an employee elects to defer.
Employees may elect to defer from 1% to 12% of their monthly salary (limited to
an annual maximum of $10,000 and $9,500 in 1998 and 1997, respectively). The
Company provides matching contributions equal to 100% of an employee's elective
contribution up to six (6) percent of an employee's contributed compensation.
The Company may also choose to make additional discretionary contributions to
the Plan.

The Plan is sponsored and administered by the Company (the "Plan
Administrator"). The Company has appointed Merrill Lynch Trust Company of New
York as trustee who is responsible for the management of the Plan's assets.
Expenses related to the administration of the Plan are paid by the Company.

ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION

Employees of the Company must complete one (1) year of service and have attained
the age of 18 to become eligible for participation in the Plan. A year of
service is defined as a twelve consecutive month period, beginning on the
employee's date of hire, during which he or she completes 1,000 hours of
service. An hour of service is any hour the employee works for the Company and
is entitled to payment from the Company. An employee becomes a member of the
Plan on the entry date coincident with or next following the date that he or she
meets the eligibility requirements.

Rollover contributions represent vested account balances transferred by
participants of the Plan from other Plans.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

VESTING

Participants are always 100% vested in employee contributions and rollover
contributions plus net investment income earned on these amounts.

                                      -----


The Plan provides for full (100%) vesting of the Company's contributions.
Participants become vested in Company contributions based on years of services
as follows:

         YEARS OF SERVICE         PERCENTAGE
         ----------------         ----------
<S>                                <C>
               1                      0%

               3                     50%
               4                     75%
               5                    100%

</TABLE>


TRANSFERS

Participants are permitted to change the investment of their interests in any of
the funds on a daily basis subject to certain limits.

FORFEITURES

Plan participants who terminate employment for reasons other than retirement,
death, or disability will receive the vested portion of their account only.
Amounts forfeited due to terminations of employment will be used to reduce the
Company's future contributions to the Plan.

PARTICIPANT LOANS

The Plan allows loans to participants up to a maximum amount of 50% of the
participant's vested balance not to exceed $50,000. Loan provisions provide for
a term generally not to exceed five years, with interest rates and repayment
schedules to be determined by the Plan Administrator. The interest rates on
participant loans outstanding at December 31, 1998 range from 7% to 8%.

PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

Each participant's accrued benefits, including allocations of Plan earnings, may
be paid to the participant upon retirement, death, disability, resignation,
discharge, or proven hardship. The normal form of benefit payable under this
Plan is a lump sum.

ASSET MANAGEMENT

The trustee of the plan is also the record keeper and custodian of the Plan's
assets.

PLAN TERMINATION

Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right,
under the Plan, to suspend contributions, to discontinue contributions, or to
terminate the Plan at any time. In the event of termination, the accounts of the
members of the Plan are fully vested and nonforfeitable.

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:


BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying statements of net assets available for plan benefits and
changes in net assets available for plan benefits have been prepared on the
accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make significant estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the changes in net assets available for plan benefits during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The plan provides for investment options in mutual funds and other investment
securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest
rate risk, market risk and credit risk. Due to the level of risk associated with
certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in
the value of investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that
changes in risks in the near term would materially affect participant's account
balances and the amounts reported in the statement of net assets available for
plan benefits and the statement of changes in net assets available for plan
benefits.

INVESTMENTS

The Plan provides for participant-directed investment programs with Merrill
Lynch Trust Company of New York. During 1998 the Company added several funds to
the Plan, to enhance options available to employees. A description of the
investment funds of the Plan are set forth in each Fund's prospectus.

The Plan's investments are stated at fair value, based on the quoted market
price on the last business day of the Plan year.

Pooled separate account balances are recorded at fair value and increase and
decrease with contributions, withdrawals, and realized and unrealized gains and
losses from the assets in the accounts. The value of each separate account is
determined at the close of each business day based on market values of the
underlying assets. Gain or loss on investments in pooled separate accounts sold
during the year is based on their inventory value (market value at the beginning
of the period or cost if purchased prior to the beginning of the period).

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                      -----


Increase or decrease in the value of investments held in pooled separate
accounts at year end is based on the difference between the market value of such
investments at the end of the year and their inventory value.

Contributions from the participants and the employer are recorded in the period
in which the payroll deductions are made from Plan participants' paychecks.
Funds are remitted to the Plan monthly.

Loans to participants are stated at cost less principal pay downs.

The Plan presents in the statements of changes in net assets available for plan
benefits the net appreciation (depreciation) in the fair value of its
investments which consists of the realized gains or losses and unrealized
appreciation (depreciation) on those investments.

INCOME TAXES

On January 1, 1981, and again on January 26, 1994, the Internal Revenue Service
approved qualification of the form of the Plan under the provisions of Section
401(k) and 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"). The Plan has
subsequently been amended. The Plan administrator believes that the Plan, as
amended, is designed and is being operated in compliance with the applicable
requirements of the Code and, therefore, has not applied for a new determination
letter.

3.   INVESTMENTS

Investments, at fair value, that represent five percent or more of the Plan's
net assets at December 31, 1998 and 1997 are separately identified as follows:

Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contributions,
which include amounts transferred from other Plans. Participant contributions
for 1997 include $2,181,615 of assets transferred from the former Christiania
General Insurance Corp. of New York ("CGIC") 401(k) Savings & Investment Plan
into the Plan. CGIC was acquired by the Company in June, 1996.

The accounts of the former CGIC employees were initially allocated to Plan funds
that were similar to those under the previous plan. The employees were then
allowed to change the investment of their interest in any of the funds in
accordance with the terms of the Plan.
