COVERING THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 AND 1994
1. On June 26, 1995, the Corporation sold, in a public offering, 3,000,000
shares of $1.8125 Cumulative Preferred Stock ($25 Stated Value) (the
"Preferred Stock") with an aggregate stated value of $75 million. The
Preferred Stock may be redeemed, at the option of the Corporation, in whole
or in part, at any time or from time to time, on or after July 1, 2000 at
$25 per share, plus, in each case, dividends accrued and unpaid to the
redemption date. The net proceeds received have been used for general
corporate purposes, including payment to holders of the $3.375 Cumulative
Convertible Preferred Stock who, in connection with the Corporation's call
for redemption described in footnote 2, elected to redeem.
2. On July 24, 1995, the Corporation redeemed all of the outstanding shares
of its $3.375 Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock. Holders of the
preferred stock tendered an aggregate of 42,596 shares at the redemption
price of $52.025 plus accrued and unpaid dividends of $0.21563 per share.
Holders of 3,406,093 shares of preferred stock elected to convert, at the
conversion ratio of 1.03448, into an aggregate of 3,523,369 shares of
common stock. Fractional shares of common stock and shares not tendered
received cash.

5. On January 1, 1995, the Corporation adopted SFAS No. 116, "Accounting for
Contributions Received and Contributions Made." This SFAS requires that
pledges to make charitable contributions be recognized in the period that
funds are unconditionally pledged. This change in the method of accounting
for charitable contributions resulted in a one-time expense in the first
quarter of 1995 of $7.5 million, included in other operating expenses.
6. On July 1, 1995, the Corporation adopted SFAS No. 122, "Accounting for
Mortgage Servicing Rights an amendment of FASB Statement No. 65." SFAS No.
122 eliminates the distinction made in SFAS No. 65 in accounting for
mortgage servicing rights which depended on whether the loans were
originated by the servicer or purchased. Under SFAS No. 122, mortgage
servicers are required to recognize, as separate assets, rights to service
loans regardless of how the rights were acquired. The statement also
requires, among other things, mortgage servicers who sell or securitize
loans on which the servicing rights are retained to allocate the total cost
of the loans to the servicing rights and loans if it is practicable to
estimate those fair values. Mortgage servicing rights must be assessed
periodically for impairment and written down to fair value through a
valuation allowance. The Corporation has retained the servicing rights on
the mortgage loans it has sold. The effects of initially adopting this
SFAS were not material to the Corporation's results of operations.
7. On September 23, 1995, the Corporation announced that it had reached an
agreement to acquire Brooklyn Bancorp, Inc. ("BRKB"), parent of CrossLand
Federal Savings Bank, for approximately $530 million in an all cash
transaction at $41.50 per share. At September 30, 1995, BRKB had total
assets of $4.1 billion, total deposits of $3.7 billion and total
stockholders' equity of $375 million. BRKB has approximately 385,000
accounts in 33 branches in the New York metropolitan area. It is
anticipated that this transaction will close in the first quarter of 1996,
subject to regulatory and shareholder approval and certain other
conditions. Also see "Management's Discussion and Analysis- Other Operating
Expenses".
8. Certain amounts from the prior year have been reclassified to conform with
1995 classifications.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Management's discussion and analysis of the summary of operations should be read
in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements (unaudited) and notes
shown elsewhere in this Report. In the following discussion, the interest income
earned on tax exempt obligations has been adjusted (increased) to a
fully-taxable equivalent basis. The rate used for this adjustment was
approximately 44% in 1995 and 1994. This tax equivalent adjustment permits all
interest income and net interest income to be analyzed on a comparable basis.
The following table presents a comparative summary of the increases (decreases)
in income and expense for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30,
1995 compared to the corresponding periods of 1994.

Net income applicable to

</TABLE>
Net Interest Income - on a fully-taxable equivalent basis amounted to $211.9
million in the third quarter of 1995, compared to $227.1 million in the third
quarter of 1994. The lower level of net interest income in the third quarter of
1995, compared to the corresponding quarter of 1994 resulted from a narrower net
interest rate differential as the cost of interest-bearing funds rose more than
the yields on interest-earning assets. Also, as is shown in the table on page 9,
average interest-earning assets declined to $32.9 billion in the third quarter
of 1995 from $33.3 billion in the third quarter of 1994. Net interest income in
the third quarter of 1994 included approximately $5.0 million of prepayment
penalties from the refinancing of certain commercial loans.

For the first nine months of 1995, net interest income declined to $635.8
million, from $654.2 million for the nine-month period in the prior year. As
shown in the table on page 10, this change is due to average interest-earning
assets declining to $32.0 billion for the nine-month period of 1995 from $33.1
billion in the nine-month period last year, while the net interest rate
differential rose slightly to 2.65% from 2.64% for the respective periods.
Net interest income in the third quarter of 1995 increased by $13.8 million when
compared to the second quarter of 1995 due to increased volumes of
interest-earning assets, primarily investment securities, federal funds sold and
trading account assets, funded by increases in deposits and short-term
borrowings. The net interest rate differential was 2.56% for both quarters.
At September 30, 1995, the Corporation's total exposure to Brazil, consisting
primarily of Brady bonds, medium-term government bonds and short-term government
bonds was approximately 1.44% of total assets, compared to 1.39% at year end
1994.
Provision for loan losses - was $3.0 million and $9.0 million in the third
quarter and first nine months of 1995, respectively, compared to $3.0 million
and $16.0 million for the corresponding periods of last year.
Net loan charge-offs were $4.0 million in the third quarter of 1995, compared to
net loan recoveries of $1.7 million in the third quarter of 1994. For the first
nine months of 1995, net loan charge-offs were $15.5 million, compared to $8.8
million in the corresponding period of last year. Reflected in the results for
the nine-month period of 1994 were net recoveries of restructuring country debt
of $6.7 million.
The allowance for possible loan losses at September 30, 1995 was $313.4 million,
or 3.19% of loans outstanding net of unearned income, compared to $319.2
million, or 3.58%, at December 31, 1994.
The following table presents summary data related to non-accrual loans for the
periods ended:

At September 30, 1995, non-accrual loans were $53.6 million, compared to $53.0
million at June 30, 1995 and $58.1 million at December 31, 1994. The decline in
non-accrual loans from December 31, 1994 is primarily attributable to a domestic
non-accrual loan which became "Other Real Estate Owned" during 1995 that was
offset by newly classified domestic and foreign non-accrual loans. See
"Statement of Condition" below for information on total non-performing assets.

Other Operating Income - totaled $96.8 million in the third quarter of 1995,
compared to $97.3 million in the third quarter of last year. For the first nine
months of 1995, such income was $315.9 million, compared to $295.2 million in
the nine-month period last year.
Income from trading activities was $37.6 million in the third quarter of 1995,
compared to $49.3 million in the third quarter of 1994. The quarter-to-quarter
change resulted from significantly reduced levels of customer business in
certain trading activities, including declines of $8.9 million in precious
metals trading and $8.6 million in trading account profits and commissions,
primarily in derivative products, that were partially offset by an
increase in foreign
exchange trading income of $5.8 million. In addition, certain arbitrage
opportunities normally available in the precious metals markets were
significantly reduced during the current quarter.
For the first nine months of 1995, income from trading activities was $150.3
million, compared to $128.2 million in the same period a year ago. This increase
is primarily due to higher levels of foreign exchange trading income and, to a
lesser degree, of trading account profits and commissions, that were partially
reduced by lower levels of income from precious metals.
Investment securities gains of $4.3 million in the third quarter of 1995
included gains of $3.6 million on certain investment securities which were
redeemed by the issuer prior to their scheduled maturities. In the third quarter
of 1994, investment securities losses of $0.8 million were recorded. For the
first nine months of 1995, investment securities gains were $9.3 million,
compared to $12.3 million of gains in the nine-month period last year. Included
in net securities gains in the nine-month period of 1994, from sales of
securities classified as available for sale, were gains in the second quarter of
$52.0 million realized on the sale of Argentine equities acquired in a 1990
debt-for-equity swap, gains of $26.9 million realized on the sale of all the
securities received in connection with Brazil's debt restructuring and net
losses of $68.9 million on the disposition of securities, primarily those sold
as part of the Corporation's asset/liability management program.
The Corporation recorded a net gain of $3.1 million in the third quarter of 1995
on loans sold or held for sale primarily due to the sale of approximately $108
million principal amount of originated mortgage loans. The Corporation has
retained the servicing rights on the loans sold. For the nine months ended
September 30, 1995, net gains of $3.9 million compared to net gains of $2.0
million a year ago.
Commission income amounted to $14.8 million in the third quarter of 1995,
compared to $12.6 million in the corresponding period of 1994. Commission income
consists primarily of fees for the issuance of letters of credit, the creation
of acceptances and the collection and transfer of funds, and included $1.2
million in the third quarter of 1995 resulting from the acquisition of a 50%
interest in an asset management company which was previously a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Safra Republic Holdings S.A. ("Safra Republic"), a European
international private banking group of which the Corporation owns approximately
49%. For the first nine months of 1995, commission income amounted to
$43.1 million, compared to $44.9 million last year.
-12-
Equity in the earnings of affiliate was $20.2 million in the third quarter of
1995, compared to $18.8 million in the third quarter of last year. This income
represents the Corporation's share of the earnings of Safra Republic for the
period. For the first nine months of 1995, these earnings were $58.7 million,
compared to $58.5 million for the corresponding period of 1994. Safra Repulic's
client portfolio assets, both on- and off-balance-sheet, increased to $16.0
billion at September 30, 1995 from $13.1 billion on the same date last year.
Most of this increase came in the form of on-balance-sheet client deposits.
Other income amounted to $16.7 million in the third quarter of 1995, compared to
$15.9 million in the third quarter of 1994. Other income consists primarily of
service charges on deposit accounts, trust income, and other income from
factoring and overseas locations. For the nine-month period ended September 30,
1995, such income was $50.6 million, compared to $49.4 million in the year-ago
period. Included in the respective nine-month periods were gains of $1.3 million
on the sale of a New York retail branch and $2.4 million on the early
extinguishment of long-term debt in the second quarters of 1995 and 1994.
Other Operating Expenses - totaled $162.2 million in the third quarter and
$652.4 million for the first nine months of 1995, compared to $172.8 million and
$539.9 million for the corresponding periods of 1994. Included in the current
year were pre-tax restructuring and related charges of $120.0 million recorded
in the second quarter in connection with the implementation of Project
Excellence Plus, the corporation-wide re-engineering program to improve
operating efficiencies and reduce costs. In the second quarter of 1994, the
Corporation implemented a limited restructuring program related to the
de-emphasis of certain business activities in its securities subsidiary and
incurred certain other operating expenses which resulted in a
$17.0 million pre-tax restructuring charge in that period.
Salaries and employee benefits were $93.3 million in the third quarter of 1995,
a slight decline from $95.7 million in the third quarter of 1994 and $96.0
million in the second quarter of 1995. These declines were attributable to staff
reductions in connection with the implementation of Project Excellence Plus as
described above, as well as lower provisions for bonuses. The Corporation
continues to be on target with its expense reduction objectives developed in
Project Excellence Plus. For the nine months ended September 30, 1995, salaries
and benefits were $291.0 million, compared to $285.1 million for the nine-month
period a year ago.
All other expenses were $54.5 million in the third quarter of 1995, compared to
$63.2 million in the third quarter of last year. Other operating expenses in the
third quarter of 1995 included an FDIC insurance premium rebate related to the
Bank Insurance Fund recapitalization refund of $6.3 million, $1.6 million of
which was applicable to the second quarter of 1995. The balance of the rebate,
$4.7 million, was applicable to the third quarter of 1995. A reduction in the
premium rate which will apply in future quarters will result in a similar
reduction in future insurance premiums. For the nine months ended September 30,
1995, other expenses were $197.9 million, including a one-time expense of $7.5
million for charitable contributions reflecting the adoption of SFAS No. 116 in
the first quarter of 1995.
The acquisition of Brooklyn Bancorp, Inc., described in Footnote 7 of the Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements- Item 1 of this Quarterly Report, continues
the Corporation's strategy of extending its retail franchise by expanding the
base of core deposits and increasing the number of customers served. Management
believes that the transaction will have a positive effect on earnings based upon
anticipated cost savings to be derived from the consolidation of certain
branches where the branch networks of the constituent banks overlap.
-13-
In August, the Corporation's banking subsidiary headquartered in Mexico City
began operations. This subsidiary will operate as Republic National Bank of New
York (Mexico) S.A. and will engage in activities consistent with those of
Mexican "multiple banks", including deposit gathering from the public and
granting commercial and individual loans.
Total Applicable Income Taxes - have been adjusted (increased) to reflect the
inclusion of interest income on tax exempt obligations as if they were subject
to federal, state and local taxes, after giving effect to the deductibility of
state and local taxes for federal income tax purposes. Total applicable income
taxes declined $8.8 million, or 15.4%, in the third quarter of 1995 and $46.5
million, or 32.5%, during the first nine months of 1995 when compared to the
corresponding periods of 1994. These changes were a result of the decline in
income before income taxes due to the effect of the restructuring charges and a
reduction in the level of income subject to state and local income taxes. The
effective tax rates, total applicable income taxes as a percentage of income
before income taxes, for the third quarter and the first nine months of 1995
were 34% and 33%, respectively, compared to 38% and 36% for the corresponding
periods of last year.
STATEMENT OF CONDITION
Stockholders' Equity and Capital Ratios
At September 30, 1995, stockholders' equity included a deduction of $125.9
million, which represents the after-tax unrealized depreciation in the valuation
of the Corporation's portfolio of securities available for sale and
approximately 49% of Safra Republic's unrealized depreciation in its portfolio
of securities available for sale, compared to an unrealized depreciation of
$191.5 million at December 31, 1994.
The Corporation's leverage ratio, Tier 1 capital to quarterly average assets,
and its risk-based capital ratios, Tier 1 and total qualifying capital to
risk-weighted assets, include the assets and capital of Safra Republic on a
consolidated basis in accordance with the requirements of the Federal Reserve
Board specifically applied to the Corporation. These ratios do not reflect the
effect on stockholders' equity related to the valuation of the Corporation's
portfolio of securities available for sale.
In accordance with regulatory guidelines, the Corporation excludes Republic New
York Securities Corporation's assets and off-balance-sheet contracts from the
Corporation's capital calculations. The guidelines require the Corporation to
deduct one-half of its investment in this subsidiary from each of Tier 1 and
Tier 2 capital.
Effective October 1, 1995, bank regulators approved amendments to the risk-based
capital guidelines regarding the treatment of derivative contracts. The
amendments revise the conversion factors used to estimate the potential future
exposure of derivative contracts and permit banking organizations to recognize
the effects of bilateral netting arrangements in the determination of those
estimates. The Corporation believes that the amendments will not have a material
effect on its capital ratios.
At September 30, 1995, the Corporation's leverage ratio was 6.35% compared to
5.87% at year end 1994. At September 30, 1995, risk-based capital ratios were
15.69% for Tier 1, or "core", capital and 26.56% for total qualifying
capital, compared to 16.17% and 27.49%, respectively, at December 31, 1994.
These ratios substantially exceeded the minimums in effect for bank holding
companies.
-14-
At September 30, 1995, the ratio of the Corporation's total common stockholders'
equity to total assets was 5.56%, compared to 4.79% at December 31, 1994. The
improvement in this ratio during the period was attributable to total common
stockholders' equity increasing by $349 million, resulting from the conversion
of preferred stock into common shares, earnings retention and a reduction in the
net unrealized depreciation of the Corporation's portfolio of securities
available for sale.

Financial Instruments
At September 30, 1995, the net fair value appreciation of the Corporation's
on-and off-balance-sheet financial instruments, including related
off-balance-sheet hedges, was approximately $175 million. This represents an
increase in the fair value of such instruments of approximately $195 million
since December 31, 1994.
The information above does not include the fair value of deposit liabilities
with no stated maturity that are required to be reported at their carrying
value. These deposits have an increased value to the Corporation during periods
of rising interest rates since they can be invested at more favorable spreads.
