                         Report of Independent Auditors

Plan Committee
Westcorp Employee Stock Ownership and Salary Savings Plan

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of Westcorp Employee Stock Ownership and Salary Savings Plan as of December 31,
1998 and 1997, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for
benefits for the years then ended. 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 in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards 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. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at
December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the changes in its net assets available for
benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

Our audits were performed 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 as of December 31, 1998, and reportable transactions for
the year then ended, are presented for purposes 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. 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.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation: The Westcorp Employee Stock Ownership and Salary Savings
Plan (the Plan) is for the benefit of all eligible employees of Westcorp (the
Company), its wholly owned subsidiaries, Westran Services Corp., Westcorp
Investments, Inc. and Western Financial Bank (the Bank), and the Bank's
subsidiaries.

Contributions and Deductions: Contributions by Plan participants are recognized
as additions to net assets when the deduction is made from the participants'
wages at the end of each payroll period. Contributions from the Company are
voluntary and are accrued in the year in which they become obligations of the
Company by authorization of its Board of Directors.

Benefits due to terminated participants and participant withdrawals are recorded
on the date distributions are made.

Investment Valuation and Income Recognition: The Plan's cash and investments are
stated at fair value. The shares of registered investment companies are valued
at quoted market prices which represent the net asset values of shares held by
the Plan at year-end. The common stock shares of Westcorp are valued at their
closing price on the New York Stock Exchange as of December 31. The loans to
participants are valued at cost which approximates fair value.

Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest
income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the
ex-dividend date.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

GENERAL

The Plan is a defined contribution profit sharing plan that covers substantially
all employees and provides for retirement benefits. It is subject to the
provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).


                                                                             F-4

                    Notes to Financial Statements (continued)


2. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN (CONTINUED)

GENERAL (CONTINUED)

The Company and its subsidiaries make contributions to the employee stock
ownership portion of the Plan, as determined by the Company's Board of
Directors, and within the guidelines of ERISA and the regulations of the
Internal Revenue Service.

VESTING

Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus actual earnings
thereon. Vesting in the Company's matching and discretionary contribution
portion of their accounts plus actual earnings thereon is based on years of
service. The participants vest as follows:

                  Years of Service             Vested Interest
                  ----------------             ---------------
                   Less than 3                        0%
                        3                            20%
                        4                            40%
                        5                            60%
                        6                            80%
                    7 or more                       100%

A participant is 100% vested after seven years of service, or upon attainment of
age 65 or in the event of a participant's death or total disability while still
an employee of the Company. Forfeited balances of terminated participants'
nonvested accounts are used to reduce future Company contributions. The amount
of forfeited nonvested accounts was not material for the years ended December
31, 1998 and 1997.

It is the intent of the Company to continue the Plan; however, the Plan may be
terminated by the Company at any time. In the event the Plan terminates, the net
assets of the Plan will be allocated. All participants will vest 100%
immediately and will receive their credited balance as of the date of
liquidation.

Further information about the Plan agreement and the vesting and benefit
provisions is contained in the pamphlet "Westcorp Employee Stock Ownership and
Salary Savings Plan Summary Plan Document." Copies of this pamphlet are
available from the Plan Committee.

                                                                             F-5

2. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN (CONTINUED)

CONTRIBUTIONS

Employees may contribute up to 10% of annual earnings to the Plan through
regular payroll deductions under the 401(k) provisions of the Plan. The Company
may match up to 50% of employee elective contributions, not to exceed 6% of
employee compensation. Forfeitures are credited to the employer and are used to
reduce employer contributions.

2. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN (CONTINUED)

LOANS TO PARTICIPANTS

During 1997, the Plan was amended to allow employees to borrow from their Plan
Accounts. A minimum loan amount of $500 can be borrowed once a year. The maximum
loan amount is 50% of the employee's vested Plan. Account balance not to exceed
$50,000. Loans are required to be repaid within five years; however, if the
purpose of the loan is to purchase a primary residence, the term may be up to 30
years.

Repayments of loan amounts are used to reduce the outstanding principal balance
of the loan. Such principal reductions are then allocated among the seven
investment options in the same proportion in which the individual employee's
elective contributions are allocated at the time of loan repayment.

3. BENEFITS PAYABLE

Vested benefits payable to participants of $79,081 and $432,182 at December 31,
1998 and 1997, respectively, are not reflected as a deduction from net assets
available for benefits in the Plan's financial statements, which creates a
difference from the Plan's Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Form 5500, "Annual
Return/Report of Employee Benefit Plan," which has recorded the vested benefits
as a liability.



                                                                             F-7

5. INCOME TAX STATUS

The Plan has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service
dated August 8, 1995, stating that the Plan is qualified, in form, under Section
401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) and, therefore, the related trust
is exempt from taxation. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in
conformity with the Code to maintain its qualification. The Plan Administrator
believes the Plan is being operated in compliance with the applicable
requirements of the Code and, therefore, believes that the Plan is qualified and
the related trust is tax exempt.

6. ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS

The Company has agreed to voluntarily pay the Plan's administrative expenses of
approximately $124,000 in 1998 and $125,000 in 1997. The agreement to pay the
administrative costs may be canceled at any time.


                                                                             F-9

7. EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTIONS

The Company's Board of Directors elected to provide a contribution in 1998 of
$1,179,477 for the salary savings portions of the Plan. The contribution
consisted of cash of $759,313 and allocated plan forfeitures of $420,163. In
1997, the Company's Board of Directors elected to provide a contribution of
$2,861,088 for both the employee stock ownership (ESOP) and salary savings
portions of the Plan. In 1997, the contribution consisted of Westcorp common
stock with a fair value on the date of transfer of $1,702,150, cash of $723,426
and allocated forfeitures of $435,512. The contribution expense was allocated to
the Company and its subsidiaries based upon the relative participation of the
employees of the Company and its subsidiaries in the Plan.

8. ESOP PARTICIPANT ALLOCATION

The Plan allocates contributions, investment changes and forfeitures to
participants' accounts as follows:

       Contributions: Each participant is credited with one unit for each $100
       of eligible compensation plus an additional unit for each full year of
       service.

       Investment Changes: Each participant account is allocated the amount of
       investment changes on a monthly basis in the same proportion that the
       cash or shares of each participant's account bears to the total accounts
       of all participants in the same investment option at the time of the
       valuation.

       Forfeitures: Forfeitures are allocated to participants who did not have a
       break in service during the current year based on the proportion of each
       participant's compensation to the total compensation of all such
       participants during the year.


                                                                            F-10

11. YEAR 2000 (UNAUDITED)

The Plan Sponsor has determined that it will be necessary to take certain steps
in order to ensure that the Plan's information systems are prepared to handle
year 2000 dates. The Plan Sponsor is taking a two-phase approach. The first
phase addresses internal systems that must be modified or replaced to function
properly. Both internal and external resources are being utilized to replace or
modify existing software applications, and test the software and equipment for
the year 2000 modifications. The Plan Sponsor anticipates substantially
completing this phase of the project by June 1999. Costs associated with
modifying software and equipment are not estimated to be significant and will be
paid by the Plan Sponsor.

For the second phase of the project, Plan management established formal
communications with its third-party service providers to determine that they
have developed plans to address their own year 2000 problems as they relate to
the Plan's operations. All third-party service providers have indicated that
they will be year 2000 compliant by early 1999. If modification of data
processing systems of either the Plan, the Plan Sponsor, or its service
providers are not completed timely, the year 2000 problem could have a material
impact on the operations of the Plan. Plan management has not developed a
contingency plan, because they are confident that all systems will be year 2000
ready.
