NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



1.   Financial Statements

     The Statement of Financial Position as of June 30, 1995, the Statements
of Income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 1995 and
1994, and the Statements of Cash Flow for the six-month periods then ended are
unaudited.  The interim financial statements reflect all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim
periods presented.  The financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Allstate Life
Insurance Company of New York 1994 Financial Statements.  The results of
operations for the interim periods should not be considered indicative of
results to be expected for the full year.  

2.   Accounting Change

     The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS")
No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan" and SFAS No. 118,
"Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan-Income Recognition and
Disclosure" on January 1, 1995.  SFAS No. 114 defines impaired loans as loans
in which it is probable that a creditor will be unable to collect all amounts
contractually due under the terms of the loan agreement and requires that
impairment be measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows
discounted at the loan's effective interest rate.  SFAS No. 118 amends SFAS No.
114 to allow a creditor to use existing methods for recognizing interest income
on impaired loans.  The adoption of these statements did not have a material
impact on results of operations or financial position.

Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York
Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Three- and Six-Month Periods Ended June 30, 1995


General

     Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York ("the Company") is a wholly
owned subsidiary of Allstate Life Insurance Company ("Allstate Life"). 
Allstate Life is wholly-owned by Allstate Insurance Company, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of The Allstate Corporation ("the Corporation").  Sears, Roebuck and
Co. distributed its 80.3% ownership in the Corporation on June 30, 1995 to
Sears common shareholders through a tax-free dividend.  As a result of the
distribution, Sears no longer has an ownership interest in the Corporation.  

     The Company markets insurance products through the established agency
facilities of Allstate and through direct marketing.  It also markets annuity
products through Dean Witter Reynolds, Inc. account executives.


Results of Operations

     Statutory premiums, which include premiums and deposits received for all
products, decreased $1.5 million or 3.1% for the second quarter of 1995 to
$47.5 million from $49.0 for the same period in 1994.  The decrease was
primarily related to lower sales of  flexible premium deferred variable annuity
contracts.  For the first six months of 1995, statutory premiums increased to
$118.8 million from $92.5 million for the same period in 1994.  The increase
was primarily attributable to higher sales of structured settlement products
partially offset by lower sales of flexible premium deferred variable annuity
contracts during the first quarter.   Premium income and contract charges under
generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") were $34.8 million for the
second quarter and $86.4 million for the first six months, compared to $27.3
million and $51.5 million for the same periods in 1994.  Under GAAP, revenues
exclude deposits on most annuities and premiums on universal life insurance
policies and will vary with the mix of products sold during the period.  The
increases were primarily related to the level of structured settlements sold
with life contingencies.

     Pre-tax net investment income in the second quarter of 1995 increased 5.4%
to $25.5 million, compared to $24.2 million for the same period in 1994.  For
the first six months of 1995 pre-tax net investment income increased 5.6% to
$50.7 million, compared to $48.0 million for the same period in 1994.  The
increases were primarily related to the 10.2% growth in invested assets as
compared to June 30, 1994. 
<PAGE>
     In the second quarter, the Company experienced after-tax capital losses
of $337 thousand compared with after-tax capital losses of $181 thousand in
1994.  After-tax net capital losses through June 30, 1995 were $1.4 million as
compared with after-tax capital gains of $778 thousand over the six-month
period in 1994.  The losses were primarily due to writedowns of commercial
mortgages, partially offset by gains on disposition of fixed income securities. 
Fluctuations in realized capital gains and losses are largely a function of
management's view of individual investments and overall market conditions.

     Provision for policy benefits, which under generally accepted accounting
principles are significantly influenced by the type of product sold, increased
$7.5 million to $46.9 million for second quarter compared to $39.4 million for
the same period in 1994.   For the first six months of 1995, provison for
policy benefits increased $35.2 million to $109.8 million compared to $74.6
million for the same period in 1994.  The increases were primarily related to
the level of structured settlements sold with life contingencies.

     Net income increased $475 thousand in the second quarter of 1995 to $4.4
million from $4.0 million in 1994.  For the first six months of 1995, net
income decreased $727 thousand to $8.7 million from $9.4 million for the same
period in 1994.  

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Company's investment policy places an emphasis on the matching of
assets with related liabilities while also maintaining liquidity.  To achieve
an economic balance between assets and liabilities, the investment portfolios
are segmented by type of insurance product.

     This strategy places over 90% of the Company's portfolio in fixed income
securities, which includes publicly traded bonds, mortgage-backed securities
and mortgage loans to support the investment-oriented product lines.  The
mortgage-backed securities are primarily government agency-backed securities. 
The Company also invests in privately placed bonds which have comparable
investment quality as public securities but offer higher yields.

       The Company defines problem commercial mortgage loans as loans that are
in foreclosure, have a principal or interest payment over 60 days past due, or
are current but considered in-substance foreclosed.  Restructured commercial
loans have modified terms and conditions that were not at prevailing market
rates or terms at the time of the restructuring.  Potential problem commercial
mortgage loans are current or less than 60 days delinquent as to contractual
principal and interest payments, but because of other facts and circumstances,
management has serious doubts regarding the borrower's ability to pay future
interest and principal or management believes these loans may be classified as
problem or restructured in the future.  At June 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994
total problem, restructured and potential problem loans, net of reserves, were
$9.3 million and $8.4 million, respectively.  All of the problem, restructured
and potential problem loans were impaired as of June 30, 1995 (See Notes to
Financial Statements #2).<PAGE>
     The majority of the Company's liabilities 
consist of contractholder funds
and reserves for life insurance policy benefits.  These reserves increased 6.5%
from December 31, 1994 to June 30, 1995 primarily as a result of sales of
universal life, structured settlements, and traditional life insurance
products.  In addition, Separate Account balances increased 11.1% in the period
due to favorable investment performance of the Separate Account funds,
transfers from fixed annuities to variable annuities and sales of flexible
premium deferred variable annuity contracts.  


Pending Accounting Standards

     In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
121 "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to be Disposed Of".  The statement requires that long-lived assets and
certain identifiable  intangibles to be held and used by an entity be reviewed
for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  The statement requires
that impairment loss be measured for those assets  as the amount by which the
carrying amount of the asset exceeds the asset's fair value.  This statement
will be adopted in 1996 and is not expected to have a material impact on the
Company's results of operations or financial position
