TO THE PLAN ADMINISTRATOR OF
MBIA INC. EMPLOYEES PROFIT SHARING AND 401(K) SALARY DEFERRAL PLAN:


We have audited the  accompanying  statements  of net assets  available for plan
benefits of the MBIA Inc.  Employees  Profit Sharing and 401(K) Salary  Deferral
Plan as of December 31, 1995 and 1994 and the related  statements  of changes in
net assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the plan administrator.  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 plan benefits of the MBIA
Inc. Employees Profit Sharing and 401(K) Salary Deferral Plan as of December 31,
1995 and 1994, and the changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the
years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

1.   PLAN DESCRIPTION
- ---------------------

The MBIA Inc.  Employees  Profit  Sharing and 401(K)  Salary  Deferral Plan (the
"Plan")  is  a  defined  contribution  plan  for  employees  of  MBIA  Inc.  and
Subsidiaries (the "Company"). Effective April 1, 1987, a 401(K) deferral feature
was implemented enabling eligible participants to defer up to 10% of their total
eligible compensation.  Matching contributions are made by the Company for those
participants  making salary  deferred  contributions  at the rate of 100% of the
participant's  contribution  and  up to a  maximum  of 5% of  the  participant's
eligible  compensation.  Participants  may request loans from their  accounts in
accordance with established guidelines.

The assets of both the Plan and the MBIA Inc. Employees Pension Plan are managed
by Fidelity  Management  Trust Company  ("Fidelity"),  the  investment  advisor,
master trustee and custodian.  The  participants  of the Plan have the option to
direct  the  investment  of their  contribution  share  into one or more of nine
Fidelity funds and the Employer Stock Fund.

Vesting in employer  contributions  begins after three years of service and full
vesting is achieved after five years of service.  Participants  are fully vested
in their salary deferred  contributions  at all times.  Upon reaching the normal
retirement date, death or becoming disabled,  a participant becomes fully vested
in the Company's  contributions.  Nonvested benefits remaining after termination
of employment serve to reduce future Company contributions.

The  benefit to which a  participant  is  entitled  is the  benefit  that can be
provided by the  contributions  and income  thereon,  including net realized and
unrealized  investment  gains and  losses of each  participant's  account.  Upon
retirement,  death or  termination,  a participant or  beneficiary  can elect to
receive a lump-sum distribution,  installment  distributions or purchase a joint
and survivor annuity contract or single life annuity contract.

The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security
Act of 1974 ("ERISA"). Participants should refer to the Summary Plan Description
and Plan Document for specific information regarding Plan provisions.

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- -----------------------------------------------

INVESTMENTS
The Plan's assets are invested in the MBIA Inc.  Master Trust (the "Trust") with
the assets of the MBIA Inc. Employees Pension Plan.

The Plan's share of  investments  and income from  investment  activities in the
Trust  is  determined  based  on  the  Plan's  underlying  contribution  to  the
investment  classification  which  is,  in turn,  based on the  investment  fund
elections of the participants.

Investments in the Fidelity  funds and the Company's  common stock are valued at
their  current  fair  values  based on last  reported  sales  prices on the last
business  day of the year.  Participant  loans are  stated at cost plus  accrued
income, which approximates fair value.

Gain or loss on sale of investments is based on  specifically  identified  cost.
Interest income from investments is recorded as earned on the accrual basis.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

The Plan's  income from  investment  activities  includes  the net  appreciation
(depreciation)  in the  fair  value of its  investments  which  consists  of the
realized gains or losses and the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on those
investments.

CONTRIBUTIONS
Contributions from eligible  participants and matching Company contributions are
recorded in the month the related payroll deductions are made.

PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS
Each   participant   has  an  account  which  is  credited  with  the  Company's
contribution,  employees' contribution and the income (loss) from the investment
activities of the participant's account.

ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
Administrative expenses are paid directly by the Company rather than out of Plan
assets. Employee loan fees are paid out of the participants' accounts.

3.   PLAN TERMINATION
- ---------------------

The Company has not expressed any intent to  discontinue  its  contributions  or
terminate  the Plan.  However,  it  reserves  the right to  temporarily  suspend
contributions  to or amend or terminate the Plan. Upon  termination of the Plan,
the accounts of all participants  shall become fully vested,  and the net assets
of the Plan shall be distributed among the participants and beneficiaries of the
Plan in proportion to their respective account balances.


4.   INVESTMENTS

As of December 31, 1995 and 1994, the financial  position of the Master Trust on
