                     During the three-month periods ended March 31, 1996 and
                     1995, trading income included net unrealized holding gains
                     on trading securities of $3 million and $1 million,
                     respectively. These amounts exclude the net unrealized
                     trading results of the Parent's securities broker and
                     dealer subsidiaries.

                     During the fourth quarter of 1995, the Financial Accounting
                     Standards Board allowed financial statement preparers a
                     one-time opportunity to reassess the classifications of
                     securities accounted for under Statement of Financial
                     Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115, "Accounting for
                     Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." As a
                     result of this reassessment, BAC reclassified $2.1 billion
                     of held-to-maturity securities to available-for-sale
                     securities. In connection with this reclassification, gross
                     unrealized gains of $28 million and gross unrealized losses
                     of $42 million were recorded in available-for-sale
                     securities and in stockholders' equity (on a net-of-tax
                     basis).
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 4.              During the first quarter of 1996, BAC's Board of Directors
STOCK REPURCHASE     authorized a new stock repurchase program. This new
PROGRAM              program enables the Parent to buy back up to $2.0 billion
                     of its common stock by the end of 1997. The new program,
                     which replaces the stock repurchase program announced in
                     February 1995, also enables the Parent to buy back or
                     redeem up to $1.0 billion of its preferred stock by the end
                     of 1997. During the three months ended March 31, 1996, the
                     Parent repurchased 4.6 million shares of its common stock
                     under the current and pre-existing stock repurchase
                     programs at an average per-share price of $68.24. These
                     transactions reduced stockholders' equity by $316 million,
                     of which $27 million was accrued at March 31, 1996. The
                     remaining buyback and redemption authorities for common
                     stock and preferred stock under the current program totaled
                     $1.84 billion and $1.0 billion, respectively, at March 31,
                     1996.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 5.              On March 31, 1996, the Parent redeemed all 400,000
PREFERRED STOCK      outstanding shares of its 11% Preferred Stock, Series J
                     (Preferred Stock, Series J) under terms of a stock
                     repurchase program that was replaced during the first
                     quarter of 1996. This transaction reduced stockholders'
                     equity by $218 million. The shares were represented by 8
                     million depositary shares, each corresponding to a one-
                     twentieth interest in a share of Preferred Stock, Series J.
                     The redemption price was $26.375 per depositary share. The
                     quarterly dividend of $0.6875 per depositary share was paid
                     on March 31, 1996 to holders of record on March 15, 1996.

                     In addition, on March 4, 1996, the Parent announced its
                     intention to redeem all 7,250,000 outstanding shares of its
                     9 5/8% Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series F, on April 16,
                     1996 at $25.00 per share, plus dividends of $0.30747 per
                     share accrued and unpaid to the redemption date.

                                                                               7

                   percent and 41.8 percent, respectively. These rates are
                   higher than the federal statutory tax rate of 35.0 percent
                   due principally to state income taxes and the amortization
                   of nondeductible goodwill.

                    billion, $0.9 billion, and $0.7 billion, respectively, of
                    intercompany hedging-related contracts. Foreign exchange
                    contracts in both the trading and asset and liability

                    hedging-related contracts.
                /f/ Interest rate swaps and interest rate options in both the
                    trading and asset and liability management portfolios
                    include $14.2 billion and $0.7 billion, respectively, of
                    intercompany hedging-related contracts. Foreign exchange
                    contracts in both the trading and asset and liability
                    management portfolios include $1.9 billion of intercompany
                    hedging-related contracts. 

                    For most contracts, notional amounts are used solely to
                    determine cash flows to be exchanged. However, certain
                    foreign exchange contracts are designed for principal
                    amounts to be exchanged on a common settlement date. The
                    notional or contract amounts associated with foreign
                    exchange and derivative financial instruments are not
                    recorded as assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and
                    do not represent the potential for gain or loss associated
                    with such transactions. Credit risk represents BAC's
                    potential loss on these transactions if all counterparties
                    failed to perform according to the terms of the contract

                   and the value of any existing collateral became worthless,
                   based on then-current currency exchange and interest rates at
                   each respective date. Credit exposure represents the
                   potential loss to which BAC is exposed, after taking into
                   consideration legally enforceable master netting agreements.
                   Historically, losses associated with counterparty
                   nonperformance on derivative and foreign exchange instruments
                   have been immaterial.

                   The following tables summarize the average and period-end
                   fair values of each significant class of foreign exchange and
                   derivative contract outstanding in BAC's trading portfolio
                   and the period-end fair values for each significant class of
                   foreign exchange and derivative contract in BAC's asset and
                   liability management portfolio. Fair value amounts were
                   generally calculated using discounted cash flow models based
                   on current market yields for similar instruments and the
                   maturity of each instrument. These amounts include the
                   effects of master netting agreements.

                   TRADING ACTIVITIES

                   Trading income represents the net amount earned from BAC's
                   trading activities, which include entering into transactions
                   to meet customer demand and taking positions for BAC's own
                   account in a diverse range of financial instruments and
                   markets. The profitability of these trading activities
                   depends largely on the volume and diversity of the
                   transactions BAC executes, the level of risk it is willing to
                   assume, and the volatility of price and rate movements.
                   Trading income, as disclosed in BAC's consolidated statement
                   of operations, does not include the net interest income
                   derived from foreign exchange contracts and derivatives
                   associated with trading activities. However, the trading-
                   related net interest income amounts are presented in the
                   table below as they are considered in evaluating the overall
                   profitability of those activities.

                   To reflect the business purpose and use of the financial
                   contracts into which BAC enters, trading income and the
                   related net interest revenue or expense associated with such
                   contracts have been allocated into three broad functional
                   categories: interest rate trading, foreign exchange trading,
                   and debt instruments trading. Trading-related income from
                   interest rate instruments primarily includes results from
                   transactions using interest rate and currency swaps, interest
                   rate futures, option contracts, and forward rate agreements,
                   as well as cash instruments used in the management of this
                   function. Foreign exchange trading-related income primarily
                   includes the results from transactions using foreign exchange
                   spot, forward, futures, and option contracts. Trading-related
                   income from debt instruments primarily represents the results
                   from trading activities in various debt securities, including
                   U.S. government and government agency securities, foreign
                   government securities, mortgage-backed securities, municipal
                   bonds, and corporate debt.

                   ASSET AND LIABILITY MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES

                   BAC uses foreign exchange contracts and derivative
                   instruments, primarily interest rate contracts, to manage
                   interest rate risk related to specific assets and
                   liabilities, including fixed rate and adjustable rate
                   residential mortgages, long-term debt, and deposits. Foreign
                   exchange contracts are used to hedge net capital exposure and
                   foreign currency exposures. For a detailed description of
                   BAC's asset and liability management objectives and
                   strategies used to achieve those objectives, refer to page 75
                   of BAC's 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders.

                   The expected maturities and weighted average interest rates
                   associated with BAC's asset and liability management interest
                   rate swap portfolio at March 31, 1996 were not significantly
                   different from those at year-end 1995. 

                   SECURITIES LENDING

                   BAC conducts securities lending transactions primarily for
                   institutional trust customers and, at times, indemnifies
                   these customers against various losses. All securities
                   lending transactions are collateralized by U.S. government or
                   federal agency securities, cash, or letters of credit with
                   total market value equal to or in excess of the market value
                   of the securities lent. In the event of default by a customer
                   combined with a decline in the value of the associated
                   collateral, BAC may be exposed to risk of loss. During 1995,
                   BAC made a decision to exit, and, by the end of the first
                   quarter of 1996, had substantially divested its institutional
                   trust and securities services business.

                   The following summarizes indemnified securities lending
                   transactions and the associated collateral:

NOTE 9.            Congress is currently considering proposals that would
SPECIAL DEPOSIT    impose a one-time assessment on deposits insured by the
ASSESSMENT         Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF). If imposed, this
                   assessment would recapitalize SAIF to 1.25% of insured
                   deposits as prescribed by the Federal Deposit Insurance

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
HIGHLIGHTS
================================================================================

                  The following is a summary of first-quarter 1996 financial
                  information for BankAmerica Corporation and subsidiaries
                  (BAC).

                  .     BAC reported first-quarter 1996 earnings per share of
                        $1.79, an increase of 23 percent from $1.46 for the same
                        period a year ago. Net income for the first quarter of
                        1996 was $720 million, up 18 percent from $611 million
                        for the first quarter of 1995.

                  .     The return on average common equity was 15.19 percent
                        for the first quarter of 1996, an increase of 133 basis
                        points from the same period in 1995. In addition, the
                        return on average total assets increased 8 basis points
                        from a year ago to 1.22 percent for the first quarter of
                        1996.

                  .     Net interest income was up $100 million, or 5 percent,
                        from the amount reported for the first quarter of 1995.
                        BAC's net interest margin for the first quarter of 1996
                        was 4.36 percent, down 19 basis points from the amount
                        reported in the comparable period a year ago, and down 8
                        basis points from the previous quarter.

                  .     Noninterest income increased $181 million, or 17
                        percent, from the first quarter of 1995 due to growth in
                        several categories. In particular, results from trading
                        and venture capital activities improved. In addition,
                        noninterest income for the first quarter of 1996
                        included a pre-tax gain of $50 million associated with
                        the completed components of the previously announced
                        divestiture of BAC's Institutional Trust and Securities
                        Services (ITSS) business.

                  .     Noninterest expense increased $24 million, or 1
                        percent, from the first quarter of 1995. Expenses for
                        the first quarter of 1996 included the effects of higher
                        performance-based pay and retirement program benefits,
                        charitable contributions, and lower FDIC fees.

                  .     BAC's expense to revenue ratio decreased 74 basis
                        points from the previous quarter to 55.83 percent in the
                        first quarter of 1996. This is the sixth consecutive
                        quarter that this measure of operating efficiency has
                        improved.

                  .     Average loans increased $3.0 billion from the previous
                        quarter, reflecting broad-based growth in the loan
                        portfolio.

                  .     The provision for credit losses was $180 million, up
                        $80 million from the first quarter of 1995. Net credit
                        losses were $239 million for the first quarter of 1996,
                        up $162 million from the comparable period a year ago,
                        while nonaccrual assets decreased $194 million, or 10
                        percent, between year-end 1995 and March 31, 1996.

                  .     In connection with BAC's ongoing efforts to return
                        excess capital to its shareholders, BAC repurchased 4.6
                        million shares of its common stock during the first
                        quarter of 1996 at an average per-share price of $68.24.

                  .     On March 31, 1996, BAC redeemed all 400,000 outstanding
                        shares of its 11 percent Cumulative Fixed Preferred
                        Stock, Series J.

                    For reporting purposes, BAC segregates its operations into
                    business or operating sectors. BAC's Vice Chairmen oversee
                    the operations of the businesses that comprise the sectors
                    and are responsible for their financial performance. The
                    Vice Chairmen regularly review their respective businesses
                    to evaluate past performance and make decisions regarding
                    the future allocation of resources. All Vice Chairmen are
                    accountable to the Chief Executive Officer.

                    BAC determines its business sector results based on an
                    internal management reporting system, which allocates
                    revenues, expenses, assets, and liabilities to each business
                    sector. Furthermore, for internal business sector
                    monitoring, the unallocated allowance for credit losses and
                    related provision for credit losses are assigned to the
                    business sectors. Equity is assigned to each internal
                    business sector on a risk-adjusted basis. While BAC manages
                    its hedging activities centrally, the effects of hedging are
                    allocated to the business sectors through a transfer pricing
                    process. As a result, the effects of hedging interest rate
                    risk are reflected in the appropriate business sectors.

                    The information set forth in the tables on pages 16-17
                    reflects the condensed income statements and selected
                    average balance sheet line items and financial ratios by
                    business sectors. The information presented does not
                    necessarily represent the business sectors' financial
                    condition and results of operations as if they were
                    independent entities. For a detailed discussion of the
                    composition of each business sector, refer to pages 6-15 of

                   U.S Corporate and International Banking--U.S. Corporate and
                   International Banking's net income for the first three months
                   of 1996 increased $143 million, or 82 percent, from that of
                   the same period a year ago. This increase reflected higher
                   net interest and noninterest income levels and a reduction in
                   the provision for credit losses, partially offset by higher
                   noninterest expense. The increase in net interest income
                   resulted from higher interest recoveries, an increase in
                   commercial and industrial and foreign loans, and higher
                   spreads on foreign loans. The reduction in the provision for
                   credit losses was primarily a result of improved asset
                   quality in Latin America. Noninterest income was up $123
                   million predominantly due to higher trading and venture
                   capital profits, increased securities gains, and gains on
                   asset sales. Noninterest expense increased due to higher
                   variable-based pay that resulted from improved performance in
                   BAC's global capital market operations. Average deposits
                   increased $11.8 billion, or 37 percent, reflecting growth in
                   foreign interest-bearing deposits. This sector's expense to
                   revenue ratio improved from 54.4 percent in the first
                   quarter of 1995 to 47.9 percent for the first quarter of
                   1996.

                   Consumer Banking--Consumer Banking's net income for the
                   first three months of 1996 was up $46 million, or 18 percent,
                   from the amount for the same period last year. This increase
                   largely reflected improved results in BAC's residential and
                   consumer installment loan businesses as well as its non-
                   California banks. Net interest income was up from the first
                   three months of 1995 due to increased loan volumes and higher
                   spreads on residential real estate loans. Partially
                   offsetting this increase were lower spreads on credit card
                   loans and retail deposits.

                                                                              17
<PAGE>

================================================================================
 
                   Noninterest income increased due to increased revenues from
                   service charges on deposit accounts. Noninterest expense was
                   essentially unchanged, as increased advertising expenses
                   offset reduced FDIC assessment fees. The increases in net
                   interest and noninterest income, coupled with BAC's efforts
                   to keep noninterest expense at targeted levels, resulted in
                   an expense-to-revenue ratio of 55.6 percent for the first
                   quarter of 1996, a decrease from 59.5 percent for the first
                   quarter of 1995. The provision for credit losses increased
                   $76 million primarily as a result of strong growth in the
                   consumer loan portfolio. Average loan outstandings grew $8.0
                   billion, or 11 percent, from the first three months of 1995,
                   primarily representing growth in the manufactured housing,
                   residential first mortgage, and credit card portfolios.
                   Average deposits declined $1.0 billion, reflecting decreases
                   in most deposit categories.

                   Middle Market Banking -- Middle Market Banking's net income
                   for the first three months of 1996 grew $6 million, or 8
                   percent, from the first three months of 1995. This growth was
                   primarily a result of a decrease in the provision for credit
                   losses. Average loan outstandings increased $1.9 billion
                   largely due to increased demand in several regions of the
                   U.S. However, net interest income decreased $8 million from
                   the first quarter of 1995 as continued price competition
                   resulted in a shift from higher priced loans, such as those
                   tied to the reference-rate, to lower priced loans, such as
                   those that are LIBOR-based.

                   Commercial Real Estate -- Net income for the first three
                   months of 1996 decreased $46 million, or 40 percent, from the
                   first three months of 1995 primarily due to an increase in
                   the provision for credit losses. Net interest income
                   decreased $14 million from the first three months of 1995
                   primarily due to lower interest recoveries and declining
                   spreads on construction real estate loans.

                   Private Banking and Investment Services -- Net income for
                   Private Banking and Investment Services was $18 million in
                   the first three months of 1996, a 13 percent increase from
                   the comparable period of 1995. Noninterest income increased
                   due to growth in mutual fund and annuity revenues.

                   Other -- "Other" amounts are primarily associated with BAC's
                   ITSS business, certain corporate expenses, and various other
                   support services. "Other" also includes the results from
                   corporate liquidity management activities, along with any
                   residual differences between actual centrally managed
                   external hedging results and the transfer of interest rate
                   risk hedging to the appropriate business sectors.

                   This sector had a net loss of $62 million in the first
                   quarter of 1996, compared with a net loss of $20 million in
                   the same period last year. The increase in the net loss was
                   primarily attributable to lower results from corporate
                   liquidity management activities and increased charitable
                   contributions. Partially offsetting this decrease was the
                   first-quarter 1996 recognition of a $50 million pre-tax gain
                   associated with the completed components of the previously
                   announced divestiture of BAC's ITSS business.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
================================================================================

 
NET INTEREST       Taxable-equivalent net interest income was $2,151 million for
INCOME             the first quarter of 1996, up $99 million from the amount
                   reported for the first quarter of 1995. This increase
                   primarily resulted from broad-based growth in the loan
                   portfolio as average loans for the first quarter of 1996
                   increased $13.9 billion, or 10 percent, from the comparable
                   period a year ago. In addition, net interest income for the
                   first quarter of 1996 included $66 million of interest
                   recoveries, up $12 million from the first quarter of 1995.

                   BAC's net interest margin for the first quarter of 1996 was
                   4.36 percent, down 19 basis points from the comparable period
                   a year ago. This decline was due to increased reliance on
                   wholesale funding sources, a $2.1 billion increase in average
                   financial assets, and heightened price competition for loan
                   volume. Wholesale sources, which include foreign interest-
                   bearing deposits and domestic purchased funds, are more
                   costly than traditional core deposits. Funds raised through
                   wholesale sources have replaced the decline in retail
                   deposits and helped support balance sheet growth. If these
                   trends continue, the net interest margin may be negatively
                   influenced in future quarters.

                   BAC's net interest income and margin include the results of
                   hedging with certain on- and off-balance-sheet financial
                   instruments. For the first three months of 1996 and 1995,
                   BAC's net interest income included approximately $20 million
                   attributable to hedging with derivative instruments. The

NONINTEREST        Noninterest income for the first quarter of 1996 increased
INCOME             $181 million, or 17 percent, from the amount reported in the
                   comparable period of 1995. Fees and commissions, the largest
                   component of noninterest income, increased $36 million from
                   the amount reported in the first quarter of 1995. Retail
                   deposit account fees increased as a result of higher revenues
                   from service charges on deposit accounts and transactions.
                   Financial services fees increased largely as a result of
                   expanded loan syndication volume. The above increases were
                   partially offset by a decline in trust fees, which resulted
                   from the divestiture of ITSS and a reduction in fee revenue
                   from personal trust activities.

                   Income from loan fees and charges increased $11 million
                   largely due to higher revenues from late payment charges on
                   credit card accounts. This increase was offset by a $14
                   million decline in loan servicing fees that primarily
                   resulted from amortization expense and valuation adjustments
                   on mortgage servicing rights recognized in connection with
                   the fourth-quarter 1995 adoption of Statement of Financial
                   Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 122, "Accounting for Mortgage
                   Servicing Rights." During the first quarter of 1996, BAC
                   purchased the rights to service mortgage loans of
                   approximately $14 billion from First Bank System bringing
                   its nationwide mortgage servicing portfolio to approximately
                   $77 billion.

                   Trading income for the first quarter of 1996 increased $36
                   million from the same period a year ago. Improved performance
                   in BAC's debt securities trading operations was largely
                   attributable to a strong bond market in Europe, as well as
                   gains on Latin American and other emerging market debt
                   securities. Foreign exchange trading-related income increased
                   due to higher transaction volume that resulted from strong
                   global demand for those products. For more information on the
                   functional components of trading income, refer to Note 8 of
                   the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements on pages 8-13.

                   Other noninterest income for the first three months of 1996
                   increased $109 million from the amount reported in the
                   comparable period of 1995. Net gain on sales of assets
                   increased primarily due to higher gains on loan sales and
                   sales of leased personal property, primarily airplanes. In
                   addition, net gain on available-for-sale securities increased
                   $29 million primarily due to gains realized on the sale of
                   Latin American debt securities and certain domestic equity
                   securities. Income from venture capital activities increased
                   $23 million due to higher realized capital gains and
                   partnership distributions. Other income for the first quarter
                   of 1996 included a $50 million gain associated with the
                   completed components of the previously announced divestiture
                   of BAC's ITSS business.

NONINTEREST        Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 1996 increased
EXPENSE            $24 million, or 1 percent, from the amount reported in the
                   corresponding period in 1995.

                   Personnel expense (salaries and employee benefits), the
                   largest component of noninterest expense, totaled $1,023
                   million in the first quarter of 1996, up $21 million from the
                   amount reported in the corresponding period of 1995. This
                   increase was largely due to higher performance-based pay and
                   retirement program benefits. The increase in retirement
                   program benefits was largely attributable to amendments to
                   BAC's employee benefit plans that became effective January 1,
                   1996. BAC's staff level on a full-time-equivalent (FTE) basis
                   was approximately 78,700 at March 31, 1996, down from
                   approximately 81,200 at March 31, 1995. FTE is a measurement
                   equal to one full-time employee working a standard day. BAC
                   had approximately 94,100 employees at March 31, 1996, down
                   from approximately 97,500 at this same date a year earlier.
                   These amounts include both full-time and part-time employees.

                   Regulatory fees and related expenses for the first quarter of
                   1996 decreased $59 million from the comparable period in 1995
                   as a result of the reduction in FDIC deposit premium
                   assessment rates announced last year.

                   Other expense for the first quarter of 1996 increased $41
                   million over the same period last year. This growth resulted
                   from higher contributions to the BankAmerica Foundation and
                   increased advertising expenditures incurred to promote
                   certain consumer products.

BALANCE SHEET REVIEW
================================================================================
 
                   Earning assets totaled $195.1 billion at March 31, 1996, up
                   $2.1 billion from year-end 1995. Growth in earning assets was
                   largely supported by increased reliance on wholesale funding
                   sources, including issuances of bank notes and commercial
                   paper, and increased foreign deposits. Average deposits for
                   the first quarter of 1996 increased $2.2 billion from the
                   previous quarter. Domestic deposits decreased $1.3 billion,
                   while foreign deposits increased $3.5 billion. The decline in
                   domestic deposits primarily resulted from lower money market
                   and demand deposits. The increase in foreign deposits was
                   largely due to BAC's continued expansion into certain global
                   markets and shift from domestic to foreign funding sources to
                   support balance sheet growth. Management anticipates that
                   this trend will continue in future quarters.

CREDIT RISK MANAGEMENT
================================================================================
 
LOAN PORTFOLIO     Total loans at March 31, 1996 were up $0.8 billion from year-
MANAGEMENT         end 1995. Average loans for the first quarter of 1996
                   increased $3.0 billion from the previous quarter, reflecting
                   continued growth in both the domestic and foreign sectors.
                   This is the eighth consecutive quarter that average loans
                   have increased. Continuation of this trend in loan growth
                   depends on both future economic conditions and customer
                   demand.

                   Domestic Consumer Loans -- The growth in domestic consumer
                   loans during the first three months of 1996 from year-end
                   1995 included increases in residential first mortgages and
                   other installment loans of $1.1 billion and $0.8 billion,
                   respectively. The increase in residential first mortgages
                   reflected BAC's continued efforts to diversify its nationwide
                   lending activities. In particular, residential first mortgage
                   origination levels grew in the midwest, southwest, and
                   northeast regions of the country.

                   The increase in other installment loans was largely due to an
                   increase in manufactured housing loans in the South that
                   resulted from strong customer demand and BAC's continued
                   expansion in this region. For information regarding BAC's
                   domestic consumer loans by geographic area and loan type and
                   domestic consumer loan delinquencies, refer to the tables

                   billion from the previous quarter. This increase was due to

                   Foreign Loans -- Foreign loans increased $0.1 billion
                   between year-end 1995 and March 31, 1996. Loan outstandings
                   to banks and other financial institutions for the first
                   quarter 1996 decreased $0.5 billion from year-end 1995,
                   primarily resulting from payments by financial institutions
                   in certain Asian countries.

EMERGING MARKET    In connection with its effort to maintain a diversified
EXPOSURE           portfolio, BAC limits its exposure to any one country. In
                   particular, BAC strives to monitor its exposure to economies
                   that are considered emerging markets. As indicated in the
                   table below, at March 31, 1996, BAC's emerging market
                   exposure totaled $9,139 million, or 4 percent of total
                   assets, compared to $8,843 million, or 4 percent, at year-
                   end 1995. This exposure represents loans, restructured debt,
                   which is included in the securities portfolios, and other
                   monetary assets. BAC's investments in emerging markets are
                   predominantly concentrated in Latin America and Asia. As
                   developing countries in these regions improve their
                   infrastructure and regional trade capabilities, BAC plans to
                   continue to expand its investment in these regions.

FOR CREDIT LOSSES  million, or 2.24 percent of loan outstandings, compared with
                   $3,554 million, or 2.29 percent, at December 31, 1995. In
                   addition, BAC's ratio of the allowance for credit losses to
                   total nonaccrual assets was 206 percent at March 31, 1996, up
                   from 188 percent at December 31, 1995.

                   Management develops the allowance for credit losses using a
                   "building block approach" for various portfolio segments.
                   Significant loans, particularly those considered to be
                   impaired, are individually analyzed while other loans are
                   analyzed by portfolio segment. While management has allocated
                   the allowance to various portfolio segments, it is general in
                   nature and is available for the loan portfolio in its
                   entirety.

                   Net credit losses for the first quarter of 1996 increased
                   $162 million from the amount reported in the same period a
                   year ago. Net credit losses in the domestic consumer loan
                   portfolio increased $55 million from the first quarter of
                   1995 largely due to higher charge-offs on credit card loans.
                   Increased charge-offs on the credit card portfolio resulted
                   from loan growth coupled with a higher level of personal
                   bankruptcy filings.

                   Net credit losses in the domestic commercial loan portfolio
                   amounted to $60 million in the first quarter of 1996,
                   compared with net credit recoveries of $7 million in the
                   comparable period a year ago. This increase was primarily due
                   to higher charge-offs on loans to financial institutions and
                   large corporate borrowers within the commercial and
                   industrial sector. The higher charge-offs on loans to
                   financial institutions resulted from a decline in the
                   collateral value of a loan to a particular borrower.

                   Net credit recoveries in the foreign loan portfolio amounted
                   to $12 million in the first quarter of 1996, compared to net
                   credit recoveries of $52 million in the first quarter of
                   1995. The first-quarter 1995 amounts reflect significant
                   recoveries on loans to borrowers in Brazil and Ecuador.

                                                                              29

NONPERFORMING   Total nonaccrual assets decreased $194 million, or 10 percent,
ASSETS          between year-end 1995 and March 31, 1996. This decrease
                reflected nonaccrual reductions in most segments of the loan
                portfolio, particularly in construction and development loans
                secured by real estate and in commercial and industrial loans.
                These reductions resulted primarily from full or partial
                payments on nonaccrual loans, and, to a lesser degree, charge-
                offs, sales of nonaccrual loans, and the restoration of certain
                nonaccrual loans to accrual status.

                The improvement in BAC's credit quality during the first three
                months of 1996 was also reflected in BAC's nonperforming assets
                ratios. The ratio of nonperforming assets (comprised of
                nonaccrual assets and other real estate owned) to total assets
                declined 10 basis points from year-end 1995 to 0.93 percent at
                March 31, 1996. In addition, at March 31, 1996, the ratio of
                nonaccrual loans to total loans was 1.08 percent, down from 1.22
                percent at December 31, 1995.

                For further information concerning nonaccrual assets, refer to
                the tables below and on pages 32 and 33.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE AND DERIVATIVES CONTRACTS
================================================================================

                   BAC uses foreign exchange and derivatives contracts in both
                   its trading and its asset and liability management
                   activities. Foreign exchange and derivatives contracts
                   include swaps, futures, forwards, and option contracts, all
                   of which derive their value from underlying interest rates,
                   foreign exchange rates, commodity values, or equity
                   instruments. Certain transactions involve standardized
                   contracts executed on organized exchanges, while others are
                   negotiated over-the-counter (OTC), with the terms tailored to
                   meet the needs of BAC and its customers.

                   BAC executes transactions to aid its customers in managing
                   exposures to interest rates, foreign exchange rates, prices
                   of securities, and financial or commodity indices.
                   Counterparties to BAC's foreign exchange and derivative
                   transactions generally include U.S. and foreign banks,
                   nonbank financial institutions, corporations, domestic and
                   foreign governments, and asset managers.

                   BAC generates trading revenue by executing transactions to
                   support customers' risk management needs, by efficiently
                   managing the positions that result from these transactions,
                   and by making markets in a wide variety of products.

                   As an end-user, BAC employs foreign exchange and derivatives
                   contracts to hedge interest rate risk in connection with its
                   own asset and liability management activities. More
                   specifically, BAC primarily uses interest rate derivatives
                   instruments to manage the interest rate risk associated with
                   its assets and liabilities, including residential loans, 
                   long-term debt, and deposits.

                   Similar to on-balance-sheet financial instruments such as
                   loans and investment securities, off-balance-sheet financial
                   instruments subject BAC to various types of risks. These
                   risks include credit risk (the risk that a loss may occur
                   from the failure of a customer to perform according to the
                   terms of the contract), market risk (the sensitivity of
                   future earnings to price or rate changes), liquidity risk
                   (the risk of BAC being unable to meet its funding
                   requirements or execute a transaction at a reasonable price),
                   and operational risk (the risk that inadequate internal
                   controls, procedures, human error, system failure, or fraud
                   may result in unexpected losses). For a detailed discussion

INTEREST RATE RISK MANAGEMENT
================================================================================
                   BAC's governing objective in interest rate risk management is
                   to minimize the potential for significant loss as a result of
                   changes in interest rates. Risk is measured in terms of
                   potential impact on both its economic value and reported
                   earnings. Economic value calculations measure changes in the
                   present value of future net cash flows from all assets and
                   liabilities until maturity. Those changes can result from
                   interest rate movements or from altered expectations of
                   future market conditions. BAC measures earnings variability
                   by estimating the potential effect of changes in interest
                   rates on projected net income over a three-year period.

                   BAC measures and manages interest rate risk by type of risk,
                   comprised of gap, options, and index mismatches. To minimize
                   exposures to declines in economic value due to gap
                   mismatches, BAC's policy is that assets and liabilities must
                   have approximately equal total duration. This policy protects
                   against losses of economic value in the event of major upward
                   and downward interest rate movements. BAC uses an internally
                   developed model to translate the mismatch in each repricing
                   period (i.e., the "gap") into a one-year mismatch with the
                   same economic risk.

                   Graph indicates the composite net asset (+) or net liability
                   (-) repricing position measured across the entire maturity
                   mismatch profile and expressed as a one-year mismatch
                   position bearing the same aggregate level of risk.

                   For example, a six-month gap of $200 million is treated as
                   having approximately the same economic risk as a one-year gap
                   of $100 million. As shown in the above graph, BAC's net one-
                   year position has been essentially balanced throughout the
                   last four years.

                   Gap mismatches result from timing differences in the
                   repricing of assets, liabilities, and off-balance-sheet
                   financial instruments. Expected interest rate sensitivity of
                   individual categories of U.S. dollar-denominated assets and
                   liabilities as of March 31, 1996 is shown in the table on

                   At March 31, 1996, BAC had a "core" imbalance before risk
                   management positions as liabilities and equity exceeded
                   assets by approximately $13 billion. BAC's risk management
                   activities eliminated this imbalance while containing the
                   size of net gap mismatches in individual repricing periods.
                   Investment securities and "received fixed" swaps essentially
                   neutralized core gaps beyond five years.

FUNDING AND CAPITAL
================================================================================

LIQUIDITY          BAC's liquid assets consist of cash and due from banks,
REVIEW             interest-bearing deposits in banks, federal funds sold,
                   securities purchased under resale agreements, trading account
                   assets, and available-for-sale securities. At March 31, 1996,
                   liquid assets totaled $47.3 billion, essentially unchanged
                   from the amount reported at year-end 1995.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CAPITAL            At March 31, 1996, stockholders' equity totaled $20.2
MANAGEMENT         billion, essentially unchanged from year-end 1995. Common
                   equity increased $0.2 billion during the first three months
                   of 1996, while preferred stock declined by the same amount.

                   Common equity increased $0.5 billion due to first-quarter
                   1996 earnings net of preferred and common stock dividends.
                   This increase was partially offset by the common stock
                   repurchases discussed below.

                   In connection with its ongoing efforts to return excess
                   capital to its shareholders, BAC repurchased 4.6 million
                   shares of its common stock during the first quarter of 1996
                   at an average per-share price of $68.24, which reduced common
                   equity by $0.3 billion. The shares were repurchased on the
                   open market over 30 trading days and represented
                   approximately 11 percent of the total volume of BAC common
                   stock traded on those days. Remaining buyback authority for
                   common stock under its current repurchase program totaled
                   $1.84 billion at March 31, 1996. For additional information
                   regarding the stock repurchase program, refer to Note 4 of
                   the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements on page 7.

                   The decline in BAC's preferred stock resulted from the
                   redemption of all 400,000 outstanding shares of BAC's 11%
                   Cumulative Fixed Preferred Stock, Series J (Series J), on
                   March 31, 1996. In addition, on March 4, 1996, BAC announced
                   its intention to redeem all 7,250,000 outstanding shares of
                   it's 9 5/8 Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series F (Series F),
                   on April 16, 1996. For additional information regarding
                   preferred stock, refer to Note 5 of the notes to Consolidated
                   Financial Statements on page 7.

                   BAC's risk-based capital ratios continued to exceed
                   regulatory guidelines for "well-capitalized" status. BAC's
                   Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio decreased 5 basis points
                   between December 31, 1995 and March 31, 1996 primarily due to
                   an increase in total risk-weighted assets and to a reduction
                   in preferred stock. The reduction in preferred stock was
                   attributable to the redemption of Series J and the
                   announcement of the redemption of Series F, as discussed
                   above. BAC's Tier 1 leverage ratio was 6.77 percent at
                   March 31, 1996, compared with 6.92 percent at December 31,
                   1995.

                                                                              37
