                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                               September 30, 1996

1.       Organization  and Ownership 
         CapMAC  Holdings  Inc. ("Holdings"  or  the   "Company"),  a   Delaware
         corporation, is the  sole  stockholder    of  Capital Markets Assurance
         Corporation,   CapMAC    Financial   Services,  Inc.  ("CFS"),   CapMAC
         Financial Services,  (Europe)  Ltd.,   a subsidiary of CFS, and  a lead
         investor in CapMAC Asia Ltd.

         Holdings  provides   financial  guaranty   insurance,   principally  of
         asset-backed  obligations,   through  CapMAC.  CapMAC's  claims  paying
         ability is rated triple-A by Moody's Investor Service, Inc., Standard &
         Poor's Ratings  Services,  Duff and Phelps Credit Rating Co. and Nippon
         Investors  Service,  Inc.,  a Japanese  rating  agency.  Holdings  also
         provides   advisory  and   structuring   services  in  connection  with
         asset-backed  financings,  through CFS. On December  19, 1995  Holdings
         sold  2,500,000  new  shares of its common  stock in an initial  public
         offering. On July 5, 1996, CapMAC Holdings completed a secondary public
         offering  by some of its  stockholders  of  3,737,500  shares of common
         stock at an  offering  price of $28.  The  Company  did not receive any
         proceeds from the offering.

2.       Basis of Presentation
         The Company's  consolidated unaudited interim financial statements have
         been prepared on the basis of generally accepted accounting  principles
         and, in the opinion of management,  reflect all  adjustments  necessary
         for a fair presentation of the Company's financial  condition,  results
         of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.  The results of
         operations  for the nine  months  ended  September  30, 1996 may not be
         indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending
         December 31, 1996. These  consolidated  financial  statements and notes
         should be read in conjunction  with the financial  statements and notes
         included in the audited  financial  statements of CapMAC  Holdings Inc.
         and its  subsidiaries  contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form
         10- K for the year ended  December 31,  1995,  which was filed with the
         Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 1996.

     Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
                              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General

CapMAC Holdings Inc. ("Holdings" or the "Company"), a Delaware corporation,
is the sole stockholder of Capital Markets Assurance Corporation ("CapMAC"), and
CapMAC Financial  Services,  Inc.  ("CFS").  CapMAC Financial  Services (Europe)
Limited  ("CFS  (Europe)")  is a  subsidiary  of CFS. The company is also a lead
investor in CapMAC Asia Ltd. ("CapMAC Asia").


Results of Operations

Quarter Ended September 30, 1996 versus Quarter Ended September 30, 1995

The Company  reported record net income of $8.2 million,  a 3% increase over net
income of $8.0  million  reported  during  the third  quarter  of 1995.  Primary
earnings per share and earnings  per share on a fully  diluted  basis were $0.46
during the third  quarter of 1996,  compared to $0.57  during the same period in
1995.  Earnings per share comparisons between the third quarter of 1996 and 1995
are affected by the impact of CapMAC Holdings'  initial public  offering,  which
increased the average number of shares outstanding at September 30, 1996 to 15.6
million from 12.2 million at September 30, 1995.

Total revenues during the third quarter of 1996 were $20.2 million,  an increase
of 11% from $18.2 million  during the third  quarter of 1995.  This increase was
primarily due to higher premiums earned and investment  income,  offset by lower
advisory fees.

For the third quarter of 1996,  gross premiums  written were $17.2  million,  an
increase of 40% from $12.3  million  for the same period in 1995.  The amount of
premiums  ceded to  reinsurers  decreased  from $6.2  million  during  the third
quarter of 1995 to $4.1  million  in the third  quarter  of 1996.  Net  premiums
earned were $10.0 million for the third quarter of 1996, an increase of 37% from
$7.3 million for the corresponding period in 1995.

CapMAC collects premiums  primarily on an installment basis over the term of the
insurance policy and, to a lesser extent,  on a one-time,  up-front basis at the
time the  insurance  policy is  issued.  Due to the  annuity  nature of  premium
income, CapMAC has an embedded future revenue stream which will be collected and
recognized  over  the  term of the  book of  business,  not only in the year the
business is written.  CapMAC reflects a relatively small portion of the expected
future revenue on the business written in the current period as premium earnings
in the same period. The total estimated present value of future revenues ("PFR")
includes  premiums (net of ceded premiums) and ceding commission income expected
to be  contractually  due to or to be  earned  by  CapMAC  in the  future  under
outstanding policies.

Business  originated  or renewed in the third  quarter of 1996 was  estimated to
generate  $19.8 million of PFR, an increase of 95% over the same period in 1995.
However, the amount of guarantees issued (gross par written) decreased from $2.5
billion  in the third  quarter of 1995 to $2.2  billion in the third  quarter of
1996,  representing a decrease of 11%. A significant amount of gross par written
in the  third  quarter  of 1995  was due to  several  commercial  paper  conduit
transactions that CapMAC  guaranteed  during such period.  Because the amount of
PFR  generated  in  any  period  with  respect  to   commercial   paper  conduit
transactions  closing  in such  period  is based  upon  the  average  amount  of
commercial paper expected to be outstanding during the

                                      9

<PAGE>



term of the transaction, while gross par written is based on the maximum program
limit of such commercial  paper conduit  transactions,  the change in PFR due to
the issuance of  guarantees  for such  transactions  does not  correspond to the
change in gross par written  resulting  from such  guarantees.  At September 30,
1996, CapMAC had 580 policies  outstanding which are expected to generate $186.5
million of PFR, up  approximately  20% from $155.4  million at December 31, 1995
relating to 476 policies  outstanding  at such date.  The discount rate used for
purposes of the PFR  calculation  was 7% at December 31, 1995 and  September 30,
1996.  Unearned  premiums,  representing  premiums collected but not yet earned,
increased by $15.6 million from December 31, 1995 to a total of $61.4 million at
September 30, 1996.

At September 30, 1996, net par insured and outstanding was $16.9 billion, up 34%
from $12.6 billion at December 31, 1995. The remaining  weighted average life of
the insured  portfolio  was  estimated to be 6.7 years at September 30, 1996 and
6.0 years at December 31, 1995.

Advisory and other fees  decreased 21% from $7.2 million in the third quarter of
1995 to $5.8 million in the third quarter of 1996. The advisory fees received by
CFS are  related  to the  closing  of  transactions  which  involve  significant
advisory and structuring  services  provided by CFS.  Because  advisory fees are
generally  earned  upon the  closing  of  certain  transactions,  the  timing of
transactions  generating  fees as well as the  amount of such fees may result in
significant  fluctuations  in revenues  attributable to such fees from period to
period.

Net  investment  income was $4.5  million in the third  quarter of 1996 and $3.3
million for the  corresponding  period in 1995.  Average  assets  available  for
investment  increased  from $240.3  million  during the third quarter of 1995 to
$323.5  million during the third quarter of 1996. The increase was primarily due
to investing the proceeds of the initial public offering of the Company's common
stock  completed  in  December  1995  as well as the  private  placement  of the
Company's common stock to Centre Reinsurance  Limited concurrent with the public
offering.  The average  annualized  pre-tax  yield on the  investment  portfolio
increased from 5.6% in the third quarter of 1995 to 5.8% in the third quarter of
1996. The average  after-tax  yield on the investment  portfolio  increased from
4.6% in the third  quarter  of 1995 to 4.7% in the third  quarter  of 1996.  Net
realized  capital  losses in the third  quarter  of 1996  were $0.1  million  as
compared to $0.3 million of net realized  capital  gains in the third quarter of
1995.  The amount of  tax-exempt  securities  held in the  Company's  investment
portfolio decreased from 62% at September 30, 1995 to 58% at September 30, 1996.

Total  expenses  were $8.6 million in the third  quarter of 1996, an increase of
42% from $6.0  million in the third  quarter of 1995.  Total  expenses  included
additions to the reserve for losses and loss adjustment  expenses,  underwriting
and operating expenses, policy acquisition costs, and interest expense.

CapMAC  maintains  a reserve  for  losses  and loss  adjustment  expenses  which
consists of a  Supplemental  Loss Reserve  ("SLR") and, if  appropriate,  a case
basis loss  reserve  for  expected  levels of  defaults  resulting  from  credit
failures on  currently  insured  issues.  The SLR is based on  estimates  of the
portion of earned  premiums  required to cover those  claims.  A case basis loss
reserve  is  established  for  insured  obligations  when,  in the  judgment  of
management,  a default in the timely  payment of debt service is  imminent.  For
defaults  considered  temporary,  a case basis loss reserve is established in an
amount  equal to the present  value of the  anticipated  defaulted  debt service
payments over the expected period of default. If the default is judged not to be
temporary, the present value of all remaining defaulted debt service payments is
recorded  as a case basis  loss  reserve.  Anticipated  salvage  recoveries  are
considered  in  establishing  case basis loss  reserves  when such  amounts  are
reasonably estimable.  Corresponding to the growth in the insured portfolio, the
losses and loss  adjustment  expenses  were $1.2 million in the third quarter of
1996 compared to $0.8 million in the third

                                        10

<PAGE>



quarter of 1995.  At September  30, 1996,  the Company had a net case basis loss
reserve of $281,000 as a result of CapMAC's first claim in 1995.

Underwriting  and  operating  expenses were $4.9 million in the third quarter of
1996,  a  70%  increase  from  $2.9  million  in  the  third  quarter  of  1995.
Underwriting  and  operating   expenses  consisted  of  gross  underwriting  and
operating  expenses,  reduced by the deferral to future periods of certain costs
related to CapMAC's  acquisition of new business and ceding  commission  income.
Gross underwriting and operating expenses were $9.5 million in the third quarter
of 1996, a 47%  increase  from $6.5  million in the third  quarter of 1995.  The
increase  in   underwriting   and  operating   expenses  was  due  to  increased
compensation costs, operating expenses and lower ceding commission income. Staff
and benefit-related expenses,  including the discretionary bonuses to employees,
constituted  approximately 74% of gross  underwriting and operating  expenses in
the third  quarter of 1996  compared  to 92% in the third  quarter of 1995.  The
Company  maintains a  discretionary  bonus plan under which  annual  bonuses are
awarded to employees.  For the third quarter of 1996 and 1995,  $2.5 million and
$1.9 million were accrued, respectively, for payment of bonuses under such plan.
Underwriting  and  operating  expenses  deferred by CapMAC were $4.6 million and
$3.6 million in the third quarter of 1996 and 1995, respectively.

Policy  acquisition  costs represent the  amortization  of deferred  acquisition
costs  ("DAC"),  which are those  expenses  incurred by CapMAC in acquiring  new
business.  The  increase in policy  acquisition  costs from $2.0  million in the
third  quarter of 1995 to $2.1  million in the third  quarter of 1996 relates to
the increase in premiums earned in the corresponding  periods.  Interest expense
related to the  senior  debt was $0.3  million in the third  quarter of 1996 and
1995. In the third  quarter of 1996 and 1995,  the Company had a net tax expense
of $3.5 million and $4.2 million, respectively. The Company's effective tax rate
was 30.1% and 34.1% for the third  quarter of 1996 and 1995,  respectively.  The
effective  tax rates during these periods were lower than the statutory tax rate
of 35% in 1996 and 1995  primarily due to tax-exempt  interest  income.  For the
third quarter of 1996,  tax-exempt  interest income of $2.5 million  represented
22% of earnings before taxes ("EBT") compared to $1.9 million which  represented
16% of EBT in the third quarter of the prior year.

Results of Operations

Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996 versus Nine Months Ended September 30, 1995

The Company reported record net income of $26.5 million, a 62% increase over net
income of $16.4 million  reported during the first nine months of 1995.  Primary
earnings  per share were  $1.51  during  the first  nine  months of 1996,  a 25%
increase over $1.21 during the first nine months of 1995.  Earnings per share on
a fully  diluted  basis were $1.47  during the first nine months of 1996,  a 21%
increase  over $1.21  during the first nine months of 1995.  Earnings  per share
comparisons  between  the nine  months  ended  September  30,  1996 and 1995 are
affected by the impact of Holdings' initial public offering, which increased the
average number of shares  outstanding at September 30, 1996 to 15.6 million from
12.2 million at September 30, 1995.

Total  revenues  during the first nine  months of 1996 were  $62.9  million,  an
increase  of 43% as compared  to $43.8  million  during the first nine months of
1995. This increase was primarily due to higher  advisory fees,  premiums earned
and net investment income.

For the first nine months of 1996,  gross premiums written were $51.0 million as
compared to $46.0 million

                                        11

for the same period in 1995 representing an increase of 11%. On January 1, 1996,
CapMAC  reassumed  the  liability  for  all  policies  previously  reinsured  by
Winterthur Swiss Insurance Company ("Winterthur"). As a result, CapMAC reassumed
approximately $1.4 billion of principal insured by Winterthur as of December 31,
1995. In connection  with this  reassumption of liability,  Winterthur  commuted
unearned  premiums,  net of ceding  commission  and federal  excise tax, of $2.0
million.  Net  premiums  earned were $28.9  million for the first nine months of
1996,  an increase of 33% from $21.7  million  for the  corresponding  period in
1995.

Business originated or renewed in the first nine months of 1996 was estimated to
generate  $58.4 million of PFR, an increase of 52% over the same period in 1995.
Correspondingly,  the amount of guarantees issued (gross par written)  increased
from $6.5  billion in the first nine months of 1995 to $8.1 billion in the first
nine months of 1996, representing an increase of 25%.

Advisory  and other  fees  increased  72% from  $12.4  million in the first nine
months of 1995 to $21.3  million in the first nine months of 1996.  The increase
in advisory  fees received by CFS related to the closing of  transactions  which
involved  advisory and structuring  services  provided by CFS.  Because advisory
fees are generally earned upon the closing of certain  transactions,  the timing
of transactions generating fees as well as the amount of such fees may result in
significant  fluctuations  in revenues  attributable to such fees from period to
period.

Net  investment  income was $12.4  million in the first nine  months of 1996 and
$9.2 million for the corresponding  period in 1995. Average assets available for
investment increased from $228.2 million at September 30, 1995 to $312.3 million
during the nine months ended  September 30, 1996. The increase was primarily due
to investing the proceeds of the initial public offering of the Company's common
stock  completed  in  December  1995 as well as the  private  placements  of the
Company's common stock to Centre Reinsurance  Limited concurrent with the public
offering  and to ORIX USA  Corporation  in July  1995.  The  average  annualized
pre-tax yield on the investment  portfolio increased from 5.5% in the first nine
months of 1995 to 5.7% in the first nine months of 1996.  The average  after-tax
yield on the investment  portfolio  increased from 4.5% in the first nine months
of 1995 to 4.6% in the first nine months of 1996. Net realized  capital gains in
the first  nine  months of 1996 and 1995 were  $0.1  million  and $0.5  million,
respectively.

Total  expenses were $24.6 million in the first nine months of 1996, an increase
of 22% from  $20.2  million  in the first nine  months of 1995.  Total  expenses
included  additions  to the  reserve  for losses and loss  adjustment  expenses,
underwriting  and operating  expenses,  policy  acquisition  costs, and interest
expense.

Corresponding  to the  growth in the  insured  portfolio,  the  losses  and loss
adjustment  expenses were $3.4 million in the first nine months of 1996 compared
to $2.3 million in the first nine months of 1995.

Underwriting and operating  expenses were $14.0 million in the first nine months
of 1996,  a 21%  increase  from $11.6  million in the first nine months of 1995.
Underwriting  and  operating   expenses  consisted  of  gross  underwriting  and
operating  expenses,  reduced by the deferral to future periods of certain costs
related to CapMAC's  acquisition of new business and ceding  commission  income.
Gross  underwriting and operating  expenses were $27.5 million and $24.1 million
in the first  nine  months  of 1996 and  1995,  respectively.  The  increase  in
underwriting and operating expenses was due to increased  compensation costs and
other operating costs,  partially offset by increased ceding commission  income.
Staff and  benefit-related  expenses,  including  the  discretionary  bonuses to
employees, constituted approximately 74% of gross underwriting and operating

                                        12

<PAGE>



expenses  in the first  nine  months of 1996  compared  to 73% in the first nine
months of 1995.  The Company  maintains a  discretionary  bonus plan under which
annual bonuses are awarded to employees. As of September 30, 1996 and 1995, $7.4
million and $5.6  million  were  accrued,  respectively,  for payment of bonuses
under such plan.  Underwriting  and operating  expenses  deferred by CapMAC were
$13.4  million  and $12.5  million  in the first  nine  months of 1996 and 1995,
respectively.

Policy  acquisition  costs represent the  amortization  of deferred  acquisition
costs  ("DAC"),  which are those  expenses  incurred by CapMAC in acquiring  new
business.  The  increase in policy  acquisition  costs from $5.5  million in the
first  nine  months of 1995 to $6.2  million  in the first  nine  months of 1996
relates  to the  increase  in  premiums  earned  in the  corresponding  periods.
Interest  expense  related to the senior debt was $0.9 million in the first nine
months of 1996 and 1995. In the first nine months of 1996 and 1995,  the Company
had net tax  expense  of $12.3  million  and  $7.3  million,  respectively.  The
Company's  effective  tax rate was 32.1% and 30.8% for the first nine  months of
1996 and 1995,  respectively.  The effective tax rates during these periods were
lower  than the  statutory  tax rate of 35% in 1996  and 1995  primarily  due to
tax-exempt interest income. As of September 30, 1996, tax-exempt interest income
of  $7.3  million  represented  19%  of  EBT  compared  to  $5.6  million  which
represented 24% of EBT in the first nine months of the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company and Holdings.  The operations of the Company are conducted primarily
through CapMAC and CFS, wholly owned subsidiaries of Holdings.  The liquidity of
Holdings both on a short-term  (less than twelve  months) and long-term  (twelve
months  or  longer)  basis  will  be  dependent  on  several  factors  including
borrowings,  equity  issuances  and  dividends  from  CFS and  CapMAC.  Holdings
requires  liquidity  for payment of dividends  to  shareholders,  investment  in
international  and  other  business  ventures  and debt  service.  Additionally,
Holdings  is required to purchase  common  stock in three  derivatives  products
subsidiaries of The Mutual Life Assurance Company of Canada (such  subsidiaries,
the "TMG Group") for  approximately $13 million no later than February 27, 2000,
and it has agreed to invest an  additional  amount of $6 million in CapMAC Asia.
While  CFS has from  time to time  paid  dividends  to  Holdings,  currently  no
dividends are expected to be received by Holdings from CapMAC.

Management  believes that the Company's  operating  liquidity  needs,  both on a
short-term  basis  and  long-term  basis,  can be  funded  exclusively  from its
operating cash flow.  The Company has a number of sources of liquidity  which it
expects to have  available to pay claims and other  obligations  on a short- and
long-term  basis:  the  cash  flow  from its  written  premiums,  advisory  fees
collected,  its investment  portfolio and the earnings thereon, its bank line of
credit, its reinsurance  arrangements with third-party  reinsurers,  the capital
markets and,  with respect to claims under certain  circumstances,  realizations
from collateral underlying its insured transactions.

The Company has no material  commitments for capital  expenditures,  although it
has the strategic alliance investment  commitments  referred to above. The total
liquidity  resources of the Company  represented by its investment  income,  its
premium and advisory fees  collections  and its liquidity  arrangements  are, in
management's opinion, adequate to meet the Company's cash needs.

CapMAC.  CapMAC's  primary  sources  of funds  are from  premiums  received  and
earnings from its investment portfolio.  Currently CapMAC's primary use of funds
is to pay  operating  expenses.  In the  event of a  default  by an issuer of an
insured obligation and upon exhaustion of other liquidity sources in the

                                       13

<PAGE>



transaction,  such  as  the  cash  flow  from  the  collateral  underlying  such
obligations, funds from CapMAC's investment portfolio may be required to satisfy
claims.  CapMAC  generally  insures  asset-backed  transactions  which have been
structured  to address  liquidity  risks  through,  among  other  measures,  the
addition  of other  liquidity  sources,  such as  banks,  to  transactions.  The
insurance  policies  issued by CapMAC  provide,  in  general,  that  payment  of
principal,  interest and other amounts  insured by CapMAC may not be accelerated
by the holder of the  obligation  but are paid by CapMAC in accordance  with the
obligation's original payment schedule or, at CapMAC's option, on an accelerated
basis. These policy provisions prohibiting  acceleration of certain claims serve
to reduce CapMAC's liquidity requirements.

The  Company  has a  conservative  investment  strategy  of  investing  in  U.S.
government and agency obligations and securities that are rated "A" or better by
the major rating  agencies.  The Company has readily  marketable,  high quality,
fixed income securities and short-term  investments in its investment portfolio.
The average contractual  maturity of securities within the investment  portfolio
was 6.0  years  and 4.7 years at  September  30,  1996 and  December  31,  1995,
respectively.  The average duration of the investment portfolio at September 30,
1996 and  December  31,  1995 was 4.4  years  and 3.5  years,  respectively.  At
September 30, 1996, the amortized cost of the Company's investment portfolio was
approximately $327.8 million (fair value of $328.5 million). The Company manages
its investments with the objectives of preserving its capital and  claims-paying
ability,  maintaining a high level of liquidity,  minimizing  taxes and,  within
these constraints, optimizing long-term total return.

CapMAC has  available  a $150  million,  standby  corporate  liquidity  facility
presently  scheduled  to terminate in September  1999 which,  if  necessary,  is
available  (subject to satisfaction of customary drawing  conditions) to provide
funds for any claim payments under its policies. Such drawing conditions include
a  requirement  that CapMAC  maintain  at least $165  million of  "Tangible  Net
Worth," which is defined as the difference  between the market value of CapMAC's
portfolio of marketable  securities  plus the amount of its cash on hand and the
total  liabilities  and reserves of CapMAC  determined in accordance  with GAAP,
excluding any loans made under the liquidity facility. As of September 30, 1996,
CapMAC's  Tangible  Net Worth was $226.5  million.  The  liquidity  facility  is
provided by a consortium of banks headed by Bank of Montreal, as agent, which is
rated  A1+ and P1 by  Standard  & Poor's  Ratings  Services  "S&P"  and  Moody's
Investors Service, Inc., respectively.  As of September 30, 1996, CapMAC has not
borrowed under this corporate liquidity facility.

Reinsurance arrangements provide a further source of liquidity to CapMAC. CapMAC
actively  pursues  reinsurance  as a means of  diversifying  and reducing  risk,
enhancing return on capital and adding underwriting capacity. In addition to its
facultative  and  treaty  reinsurance  agreements,   CapMAC  has  a  "stop-loss"
reinsurance  treaty  with  Mitsui  Marine and Fire  Insurance  Co.,  Ltd.  which
indemnifies CapMAC for up to $50 million of incurred losses above $100 million.

Effective April 1, 1994, CapMAC and Luxembourg European  Reinsurance LURECO S.A.
("Lureco"),  entered into a Per Annum Aggregate  Reinsurance Treaty (the "Lureco
Treaty")  pursuant  to which  Lureco  reinsures  CapMAC for  certain  losses and
related  expenses,  including all amounts which have been incurred by CapMAC for
anticipated  settlement  of claims  regardless of whether such amounts have been
paid by CapMAC. The Lureco Treaty provides that the annual  reinsurance  premium
payable by CapMAC to Lureco,  after  deduction of the reinsurer's fee payable to
Lureco,  be deposited in a trust  account  (the  "Lureco  Trust  Account") to be
applied by CapMAC, at its option, to offset losses and loss expenses incurred by
CapMAC in  connection  with  incurred  claims.  Amounts on deposit in the Lureco
Trust Account which have not been applied against claims are  contractually  due
to CapMAC at the termination of the treaty. The agreement is

                                       14

<PAGE>



renewable  annually  at  CapMAC's  option,  subject to certain  conditions.  The
agreement  was renewed for the 1996 policy year and  provides $7 million of loss
coverage in excess of the premium  deposit amount of $5 million  retained in the
Lureco Trust  Account.  Additional  coverage is provided for losses  incurred in
excess of 200% of the net premiums earned up to $4 million for any one agreement
year. In September  1995,  claims incurred of  approximately  $2.5 million on an
insurance policy were applied against the Lureco Trust Account. At September 30,
1996, the majority of CapMAC's  reinsurance  capacity was held by reinsurers who
were rated AA or better by S&P. CapMAC monitors the  creditworthiness  of all of
its reinsurers on a regular basis.

At September 30, 1996, CapMAC had statutory  qualified capital,  which consisted
of statutory  capital,  unassigned surplus and contingency  reserves,  of $254.2
million,  up from $239.9 million at December 31, 1995.  CapMAC's  policyholders'
leverage  ratio,  which is measured by the ratio of net  principal  and interest
insured to statutory qualified capital,  was 63 to 1 at December 31, 1995 and 81
to 1 at September 30, 1996. CapMAC's  claims-paying  resources as defined by the
Company  (which  includes  statutory   qualified  capital,   PFR  and  stop-loss
reinsurance)  stood at $490.7  million and $445.3  million at September 30, 1996
and December 31, 1995, respectively.

CapMAC Financial Services.  The primary sources of funds for CFS are payments by
CapMAC  under a service  agreement  between CFS and CapMAC  (the "CFS  Servicing
Agreement")  and the  collection  of advisory  fees for  providing  advisory and
structuring  services to third parties.  In addition,  both CFS and CFS (Europe)
generate earnings from their respective investment portfolios.  At September 30,
1996,  the amortized cost and fair value of the  consolidated  CFS portfolio was
$5.5 million.  The entire  portfolio  was highly liquid with  maturities of less
than one  year.  The  primary  use of the  funds of CFS is to pay its  operating
expenses.  All of the  Company's  personnel  are employed by CFS.  Under the CFS
Servicing  Agreement,  CFS allocates expenses to CapMAC for services provided to
CapMAC.  It is intended that a portion of CFS' funds be used to pay dividends to
Holdings in order that Holdings  will have funds  available to pay dividends and
satisfy its obligations.

As of September 30, 1996 approximately  4,293,000 stock options and warrants had
been granted and were outstanding. Based upon various exercise prices, the total
consideration  for the common  stock  equivalents  will be  approximately  $62.0
million.  Using the  Modified  Treasury  Stock  method,  it is assumed  that the
proceeds from the exercised common stock  equivalents  would be used to purchase
up to 20% of the outstanding  shares using an average market value of $27.35 per
share for nine months  ended  September  30,  1996.  The  dilution  would be the
equivalent of approximately 2,025,150 shares.

                      Capital Markets Assurance Corporation
                     Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements
                               September 30, 1996


1.       Background
         Capital   Markets   Assurance   Corporation   ("CapMAC")   is   a   New
         York-domiciled  monoline stock insurance  company which engages only in
         the business of financial  guaranty and surety  insurance.  CapMAC is a
         wholly-owned subsidiary of CapMAC Holdings Inc. ("Holdings"). CapMAC is
         licensed in all 50 states in addition to the District of Columbia,  the
         Commonwealth  of Puerto Rico and the territory of Guam.  CapMAC insures
         structured  asset-backed,  corporate,  municipal  and  other  financial
         obligations in the U.S. and international capital markets.  CapMAC also
         provides  financial guaranty  reinsurance for structured  asset-backed,
         corporate,  municipal and other financial  obligations written by other
         major insurance companies.

         CapMAC's  claims-paying  ability is rated triple-A by Moody's Investors
         Service, Inc., Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, Duff & Phelps Credit
         Rating Co.,  and Nippon  Investors  Service,  Inc.,  a Japanese  rating
         agency.  Such ratings  reflect only the views of the respective  rating
         agencies,  are not  recommendations to buy, sell or hold securities and
         are  subject  to  revision  or  withdrawal  at any time by such  rating
         agencies.

2.       Basis of Presentation
         CapMAC's  unaudited interim financial  statements have been prepared on
         the basis of  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  and,  in the
         opinion of  management,  reflect all  adjustments  necessary for a fair
         presentation of the CapMAC's financial condition, results of operations
         and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for
         the nine months ended  September  30, 1996 may not be indicative of the
         results  that may be  expected  for the full year ending  December  31,
         1996.   These  financial   statements  and  notes  should  be  read  in
         conjunction  with the financial  statements  and notes  included in the
         audited  financial  statements  of CapMAC as of  December  31, 1995 and
         1994, and for each of the years in the three-year period ended December
         31, 1995.

3.       Reclassifications
         Certain prior period balances have been  reclassified to conform to the
         current period presentation.
