Bank of America Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Bank of America Corporation and its subsidiaries (the Corporation) through its banking and nonbanking subsidiaries, provide a diverse range of financial services and products throughout the United States and in selected international markets. At June 30, 2003, the Corporation operated its banking activities primarily under two charters: Bank of America, National Association (Bank of America, N.A.) and Bank of America, N.A. (USA).
Note 1—Significant Accounting Principles
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
The information contained in the consolidated financial statements is unaudited. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the interim period results have been made. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period classifications.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation 46 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of ARB No. 51” (FIN 46). FIN 46 provides a new framework for identifying variable interest entities (VIEs) and determining when a company should include the assets, liabilities, noncontrolling interests and results of activities of a VIE in its consolidated financial statements. FIN 46 is effective immediately for VIEs created after January 31, 2003 and is effective beginning in the third quarter of 2003 for VIEs created prior to the issuance of the interpretation. For additional information on VIEs, see Note 8 of the consolidated financial statements.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123,” (SFAS 148) was adopted by the Corporation on January 1, 2003. SFAS 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. SFAS 148 also amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. Under the provisions of SFAS 148, the Corporation transitioned to the fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation costs using the prospective method as of January 1, 2003. Under the prospective method, all stock options granted under plans before the adoption date will continue to be accounted for under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” (APB 25) unless these stock options are modified or settled subsequent to adoption.
6
In accordance with SFAS 148, the Corporation provides disclosures as if the Corporation had adopted the fair value based method of measuring all outstanding employee stock options in 2003 and 2002 as indicated in the following table. The disclosure requirement of SFAS 148 recognizes the impact of all outstanding employee stock options while the prospective method that the Corporation is following recognizes the impact of only newly issued employee stock options. The following table presents the effect on net income and earnings per share if the fair value based method had been applied to all outstanding and unvested awards for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002.

(1) Includes all awards granted, modified or settled for which the fair value was required to be measured under SFAS 123, except restricted stock. Restricted stock expense, included in net income, for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $82 and $73, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $168 and $108, respectively. |
On May 15, 2003, the FASB issued SFAS 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity” and is effective May 31, 2003 for all new and modified financial instruments and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. SFAS 150 changes the accounting for certain financial instruments that, under previous guidance, issuers could account for as equity. SFAS 150 requires that those instruments be classified as liabilities (or assets in some circumstances). The adoption of this rule did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s results of operations or financial condition.
For additional information on recently issued accounting pronouncements and other significant accounting principles, see Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements of the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report and Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements of the Corporation’s Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2003.

Note 2—Trading Activities
Trading-Related Revenue
Trading account profits represent the net amount earned from the Corporation’s trading positions, which include trading account assets and liabilities as well as derivative positions and mortgage banking certificates. Trading account profits, as reported in the Consolidated Statement of Income, does not include the net interest income recognized on trading positions or the related funding charge or benefit.
Trading account profits and trading-related net interest income (“trading-related revenue”) are presented in the following table as they are both considered in evaluating the overall profitability of the Corporation’s trading activities. Trading-related revenue is derived from foreign exchange spot, forward and cross-currency contracts, fixed income and equity securities, and derivative contracts in interest rates, equities, credit, commodities and mortgage banking certificates.

Note 3—Derivatives
Credit risk associated with derivatives is measured as the net replacement cost should the counterparties with contracts in a gain position to the Corporation completely fail to perform under the terms of those contracts assuming no recoveries of underlying collateral. A detailed discussion of derivative trading and asset and liability management (ALM) activities is presented in Note 5 of the consolidated financial statements of the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report.
The following table presents the contract/notional and credit risk amounts at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 of the Corporation’s derivative positions held for trading and hedging purposes. These derivative positions are primarily executed in the over-the-counter market. The credit risk amounts presented in the following table do not consider the value of any collateral held but take into consideration the effects of legally enforceable master netting agreements. The Corporation held $21.6 billion and $16.7 billion of collateral on derivative positions, of which $14.7 billion and $11.4 billion could be applied against credit risk at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively.

The average fair value of derivative assets for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $36.4 billion and $21.4 billion, respectively. The average fair value of derivative liabilities for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $24.6 billion and $14.0 billion, respectively. The change in the average fair value largely reflects the impact of the decrease in interest rates.
Fair Value and Cash Flow Hedges
The Corporation uses various types of interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate derivative contracts to protect against changes in the fair value of its fixed-rate assets and liabilities due to fluctuations in interest rates and
9
exchange rates. The Corporation also uses these contracts to protect against changes in the cash flows of its variable-rate assets and liabilities and anticipated transactions. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Corporation recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income a net loss of $94 million (included in interest income) related to fair value hedges. This loss represents the expected change in the forward values of forward contracts and is defined as “ineffectiveness” by SFAS 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, there was no significant gain or loss recognized which represented the ineffective portion of fair value hedges. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Corporation recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income net gains of $13 million (included in mortgage banking income), which represented the ineffective portion of cash flow hedges. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, there was no significant gain or loss recognized which represented the ineffective portion of cash flow hedges. At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, the Corporation has determined that there were no cash flow hedging positions where it was probable that certain forecasted transactions may not occur within the originally designated time period.
For cash flow hedges, gains and losses on derivative contracts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to current period earnings are included in the line item in the Consolidated Statement of Income in which the hedged item is recorded and in the same period the hedged item affects earnings. During the next 12 months, losses on derivative instruments included in accumulated other comprehensive income, of approximately $139 million (pre-tax) are expected to be reclassified into earnings. These net losses reclassified into earnings are expected to decrease income or increase expense on the respective hedged items.
Hedges of Net Investments in Foreign Operations
The Corporation uses forward exchange contracts, currency swaps and nonderivative cash instruments that provide an economic hedge on portions of its net investments in foreign operations against adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates. For the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, the Corporation experienced net unrealized foreign currency pre-tax gains of $229 million and $92 million, respectively, related to its net investments in foreign operations. These unrealized gains were partially offset by net unrealized pre-tax losses of $137 million and $92 million, respectively, related to derivative and nonderivative instruments designated as hedges of the foreign currency exposure during these same periods. These unrealized gains and losses were recorded as components of accumulated other comprehensive income.

In addition, included in other assets was $98 million and $120 million of nonperforming assets at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively. Foreclosed properties amounted to $243 million and $225 million at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively.
Note 5—Commitments and Contingencies
In the normal course of business, the Corporation enters into a number of off-balance sheet commitments. These commitments expose the Corporation to varying degrees of credit and market risk and are subject to the same credit and market risk limitation reviews as those recorded on the balance sheet.
Credit Extension Commitments
The Corporation enters into commitments to extend credit such as loan commitments, standby letters of credit (SBLCs) and commercial letters of credit to meet the financing needs of its customers. For additional information on credit extension commitments, see Note 13 of the consolidated financial statements of the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report. The following table summarizes outstanding unfunded commitments to extend credit at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002.

Other Commitments
When-issued securities are commitments to purchase or sell securities during the time period between the announcement of a securities offering and the issuance of those securities. Changes in market price between commitment date and issuance are reflected in trading account profits. At June 30, 2003, the Corporation had commitments to purchase and sell when-issued securities of $203.5 billion and $204.9 billion, respectively. At December 31, 2002, the Corporation had commitments to purchase and sell when-issued securities of $166.1 billion and $164.5 billion, respectively.
At June 30, 2003, the Corporation had forward whole mortgage loan purchase commitments of $15.4 billion of which $9.1 billion were settled in July 2003. The remaining commitments of $2.6 billion and $3.7 billion are expected to settle in August and September 2003, respectively. At December 31, 2002, the Corporation had forward whole mortgage loan purchase commitments of $10.8 billion, all of which were settled in January 2003. At June 30, 2003, the Corporation had $6.4 billion of forward whole mortgage loan sale commitments of which $6.2 billion settled in July 2003 and the remaining are expected to settle in August 2003. At December 31, 2002, the Corporation had no forward whole mortgage loan sale commitments. For further discussion on ALM activities, see Interest Rate and Foreign Exchange Derivative Contracts beginning on page 50.
Other Guarantees
The Corporation sells products that offer book value protection primarily to plan sponsors of ERISA-governed pension plans such as 401(k) plans, 457 plans, etc. The Corporation also sells products that guarantee the return of principal to investors at a preset future date. At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, the notional amount of these guarantees totaled $27.7 billion and $23.8 billion, respectively. As of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, the Corporation has not made a payment under these products, and management believes that the probability of payments under these guarantees is remote.
In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation enters into various agreements that contain indemnifications, such as tax indemnifications, whereupon payment may become due if certain external events occur, such as a change in tax law.
The Corporation has provided protection on a subset of one consumer finance securitization in the form of a guarantee with a maximum payment of $220 million that is only paid out if over-collateralization is not sufficient to absorb losses and certain other conditions are met. The Corporation anticipates no material payments will be due over the life of the contract, which is approximately four years.
The Corporation has entered into additional guarantee agreements, including lease end obligation agreements, partial credit guarantees on certain leases, sold risk participation swaps and sold put options that require gross settlement. The maximum potential future payment under these agreements was approximately $2.1 billion and $575 million at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively. This increase was primarily due to written put options requiring gross settlement.
For additional information on the guarantees discussed above, see Note 13 of the consolidated financial statements of the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report.
Litigation
On May 14, 2003, plaintiffs in the Enron Corporation (Enron) Securities Litigation, pending before the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, filed a second amended complaint adding Banc of America Securities LLC (BAS) as a defendant to the action. The claims against the Corporation and BAS in the second amended complaint include claims under Sections 11 and 15 of the 1933 Securities Act relating to two securities
12
offerings, and a claim under Sections 12(a)(2) and 15 of the 1933 Securities Act relating to a third securities offering.
On May 28, 2003, judges in the Enron Securities Litigation and the Enron bankruptcy issued a joint order requiring Enron, plaintiffs in the Enron Securities Litigation and certain financial institution defendants, including the Corporation, to participate in a nonbinding mediation of claims presented in both the Enron Securities Litigation and the Enron bankruptcy. The mediation is currently scheduled to take place September 29 and 30, 2003.
The number of actions, in addition to WorldCom, Inc. (Worldcom) Securities Litigation, in which the Corporation or BAS has been named as a defendant arising out of alleged accounting irregularities in the books and records of WorldCom, has increased to approximately 50 actions. Of these actions, approximately 29 have been consolidated with WorldCom Securities Litigation pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.
For a more detailed discussion on Litigation, see Note 13 of the consolidated financial statements of the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report.
Note 6—Shareholders’ Equity and Earnings Per Common Share
On January 22, 2003, the Board authorized a stock repurchase program of up to 130 million shares of the Corporation’s common stock at an aggregate cost of $12.5 billion. At June 30, 2003, the remaining buyback authority for common stock under this program totaled $10.6 billion, or 105 million shares. The 2001 repurchase plan was completed during the second quarter of 2003. During the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Corporation repurchased approximately 49 million shares of its common stock in open market repurchases and as a result of put options exercised, at an average per-share price of $72.67, which reduced shareholders’ equity by $3.5 billion and increased earnings per share by approximately $0.04. These repurchases were partially offset by the issuance of 44 million shares of common stock under employee plans, which increased shareholders’ equity by $2.4 billion, net of $155 million of deferred compensation related to restricted stock awards, and decreased earnings per share by approximately $0.03 for the six months ended June 30, 2003. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, the Corporation repurchased approximately 82 million shares of its common stock in open market repurchases and under an accelerated repurchase program at an average per-share price of $68.92, which reduced shareholders’ equity by $5.7 billion and increased earnings per share by approximately $0.05 for the six months ended June 30, 2002. These repurchases were partially offset by the issuance of 39 million shares of common stock under employee plans, which increased shareholders’ equity by $2.0 billion and decreased earnings per share by approximately $0.03 for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The Corporation anticipates it will continue to repurchase shares at least equal to shares issued under its various stock option plans.
Accumulated other comprehensive income (OCI) includes pre-tax net unrealized gains (losses) related to available-for-sale and marketable equity securities, foreign currency translation adjustments, derivatives and other of $(1.8) billion and $1.3 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The net change in accumulated OCI also includes reclassification adjustments for gains (losses) to net income during the current period that had been included in accumulated OCI in previous period ends. Pre-tax reclassification adjustments for gains included in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 were $475 million and $310 million, respectively. The related income tax expense (benefit) was $(798) million and $727 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
The Corporation sells put options on its common stock to independent third parties. The put option program was designed to partially offset the cost of share repurchases. For additional information on the put option program, see Note 14 of the consolidated financial statements of the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report.

Note 7—Business Segment Information
The Corporation reports the results of its operations through four business segments:Consumer and Commercial Banking, Asset Management, Global Corporate and Investment Bankingand Equity Investments. Certain operating segments have been aggregated into a single business segment.
Consumer and Commercial Banking provides a diversified range of products and services to individuals and small businesses through multiple delivery channels. The segment also includes commercial lending and treasury management services primarily to middle market companies with annual revenue between $10 million and $500 million.Asset Management offers investment, fiduciary and comprehensive banking and credit expertise; asset management services to institutional clients, high-net-worth individuals and retail customers; and investment, securities and financial planning services to affluent and high-net-worth individuals.Global Corporate and Investment Banking provides capital raising solutions, advisory services, derivatives capabilities, equity and debt sales and trading for our corporate, commercial and institutional clients as well as traditional bank deposit and loan products, cash management and payment services to large corporations and institutional clients.Equity Investments includesPrincipal Investing, which is comprised of a diversified portfolio of investments in privately held and publicly traded companies at all stages, from start-up to buyout.
Corporate Other consists primarily of certain amounts associated with ALM activities and certain consumer finance and commercial lending businesses that are being liquidated. Beginning in the first quarter of 2003, net interest income from certain additional ALM activities was allocated directly to the business units. Prior periods have been restated to reflect this change in methodology. In addition, compensation expense related to stock-based employee compensation plans is included inCorporate Other.
Total revenue includes net interest income on a fully-taxable equivalent basis and noninterest income. The net interest income of the business segments includes the results of a funds transfer pricing process that matches assets and liabilities with similar interest rate sensitivity and maturity characteristics. Net interest income also reflects an allocation of net interest income generated by assets and liabilities used in the Corporation’s ALM activities.

Note 8—Special Purpose Financing Entities
Securitizations
The Corporation securitizes assets and may retain a portion or all of the securities, subordinated tranches, interest only strips and, in some cases, a cash reserve account, all of which are considered retained interests in the securitized assets. Those assets may be serviced by the Corporation or by third parties to whom the servicing has been sold.
Variable Interest Entities
In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46, which provides a new framework for identifying VIEs and determining when a company should include the assets, liabilities, noncontrolling interests and results of activities of a VIE in its consolidated financial statements. As a result of the requirements of FIN 46, the Corporation will begin consolidating certain of our multi-seller conduits in the third quarter of 2003. As of June 30, 2003, the assets of these entities were approximately $15.0 billion. However, management is assessing alternatives with regards to these entities including restructuring the entities and/or alternative sources of cost-efficient funding for the Corporation’s customers and with the objective that the amount of assets that is ultimately consolidated at September 30, 2003 will be less than the $15.0 billion. The actual amount that will be consolidated and reported as of September 30, 2003 will depend on actions taken by the Corporation and its customers subsequent to June 30, 2003. FIN 46 requires that when entities are consolidated, the assets should be initially recorded at their carrying amounts at the date the requirements of the interpretation first apply. If determining carrying amounts as required is impractical, then the assets are to be measured at fair value on the first date the interpretation applies. Any difference between the net amount added to the Corporation’s Consolidated Balance Sheet and the amount of any previously recognized interest in the newly consolidated entity shall be recognized as the cumulative effect of an accounting change.
17
Revenues from administration, liquidity, letters of credit and other services provided to these entities were approximately $95 million and $82 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. There was no material impact to net income as a result of applying FIN 46 on July 1, 2003. At June 30, 2003, the Corporation’s liquidity and letter of credit exposure associated with the multi-seller conduits administered by the Corporation was approximately $18.1 billion.
Additionally, the Corporation has significant involvement with other VIEs that it will not likely consolidate because it is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary. In such cases, the Corporation does not absorb the majority of the entities’ expected losses nor does it receive a majority of the entities’ expected residual returns, or both. These entities facilitate client transactions, and the Corporation functions as administrator for all of these and provides either liquidity and letters of credit or derivatives to the VIE. Total assets of these entities at June 30, 2003 were approximately $18.7 billion. At June 30, 2003, the Corporation’s loss exposure associated with these VIEs was approximately $14.4 billion, which is net of amounts syndicated. However, management does not believe any losses resulting from its involvement with these entities will be material.
See Notes 1 and 8 of the consolidated financial statements of the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report for a more detailed discussion of special purpose financing entities.

The Corporation is headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina, operates in 21 states and the District of Columbia and has offices located in 30 countries. The Corporation provides a diversified range of banking and certain nonbanking financial services and products both domestically and internationally through four business segments:Consumer and Commercial Banking, Asset Management, Global Corporate and Investment Banking andEquity Investments. At June 30, 2003, the Corporation had $769 billion in assets and approximately 133,000 full-time equivalent employees. Notes to the consolidated financial statements referred to in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition are incorporated by reference into Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
Performance overview for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002:
Net income totaled $5.2 billion, or $3.39 per diluted common share, 17 percent and 22 percent increases, respectively, from $4.4 billion, or $2.77 per diluted common share. The return on average common shareholders’ equity was 21 percent compared to 19 percent.
For the first half of 2003, we continued to experience strong core business fundamentals in the areas of customer satisfaction and product/market performance that have created momentum for the remainder of the year.
Customer satisfaction continued to increase, resulting in better retention and increased opportunities to deepen relationships with our customers. Delighted or highly satisfied customers, those who rate us a 9 or 10 on a 10-point scale, increased 14 percent.
We increased net new consumer checking accounts by approximately 581,000 compared to a net increase of approximately 528,000 for all of 2002 driven by increased sales production and strong account retention.
Our active online banking customers reached 5.7 million, a 51 percent increase. This represents 37% of our active checking customers who use this service. Active bill pay customers increased more than 100 percent to 2.4 million. For the second quarter, active bill pay users paid over $10.9 billion of bills.
First mortgage originations increased $41.1 billion to $73.2 billion, as low mortgage interest rates drove home purchase and refinance volumes, coupled with expanded market coverage from our deployment of LoanSolutions®, which was first rolled out in the second quarter of 2002. Total mortgages funded through LoanSolutions® totaled $20.8 billion.
Banc of America Securities continued to maintain overall market share and gained in areas such as US equities, syndications and mortgage-backed securities.
Financial highlights for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002:
Net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent basis increased $376 million to $10.9 billion. This increase was driven by the impact of credit card loan growth, higher mortgage warehouse levels, higher trading-related net interest income and higher core funding levels, partially offset by reductions in the large corporate, foreign and middle market loans, and exited consumer loan businesses and the net negative impact of rates and discretionary portfolio repositioning in a declining rate environment. The net interest yield on a fully taxable-equivalent basis declined 38 basis points to 3.42% primarily due to the net negative impact of rates and discretionary portfolio repositioning in a declining rate environment and higher trading-related assets, partially offset by credit card loan growth and higher core funding levels.
Noninterest income increased $1.0 billion, primarily due to increases in mortgage banking income driven by gains from mortgage loans sold into the secondary market due to higher levels of refinancing activity and home purchases; card income; consumer-based fee income; and gains recognized in our whole mortgage loan portfolio as we sold some whole mortgage loans to manage prepayment risk due to the longer than anticipated low interest rate environment. Market-based trading activities, primarily credit fixed income showed strong results; however, these results were offset by trading losses in the commodity portfolio primarily due to the adverse impact on jet fuel prices from the outbreak of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS). Also offsetting trading profits were losses of $190 million on derivatives used to hedge credit risk in the loan portfolio and a net reduction in the value of our mortgage banking
20
assets and the related derivative instruments of $162 million mainly attributed to lower interest rates and faster prepayment speeds. Other noninterest income included gains from whole mortgage loan sales of $524 million compared to $138 million. Other noninterest income also included equity in the earnings of our investment in Grupo Financiero Santander Serfin (GFSS) of $55 million.
Gains on sales of securities were $569 million compared to $137 million as we continued to reposition the discretionary portfolio to take advantage of interest rate fluctuations.
The provision for credit losses declined $123 million to $1.6 billion. Net charge-offs were $1.6 billion and represented 0.93 percent of average loans and leases, a decrease of 12 basis points. The decrease in net charge-offs in the commercial—domestic loan portfolio was partially offset by an increase in credit card net charge-offs.
Nonperforming assets decreased $832 million to $4.4 billion, or 1.23 percent of loans, leases and foreclosed properties at June 30, 2003 compared to 1.53 percent at December 31, 2002. This decline was primarily driven by reduced levels of inflows to nonperforming assets inGlobal Corporate and Investment Banking, together with loan sales and payoffs facilitated by higher levels of liquidity in the capital markets. In addition, commercial asset quality improved inAsset ManagementandConsumer and Commercial Banking.
Noninterest expense increased $791 million, primarily due to increases in personnel, professional fees, marketing, occupancy expense and data processing. Higher personnel costs resulted from increased costs of certain employee benefits, incentives and initiative related contract labor. Employee benefits expense increased as we began expensing stock options in the first quarter of 2003 and due to the impacts of a change in the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets to 8.5 percent for 2003 and a change in the discount rate from 7.25 percent in 2002 to 6.75 percent in 2003 for the Bank of America Pension Plan. Increase in professional fees was driven by increased litigation accruals of $145 million associated with pending litigation principally related to securities matters. Marketing expense increased primarily due to increased advertising and marketing investments in online banking and bill pay and card products. Higher occupancy costs were due to $32 million associated with vacating space in Tokyo and San Francisco related to exiting businesses and increased security and insurance expense. Data processing expense reflects increases in online bill payers and card processing due to higher volumes.
Income tax expense was $2.5 billion reflecting an estimated effective tax rate of 33.0 percent, compared to $2.2 billion and 33.3 percent, respectively.

Supplemental Financial Data
Shareholder value added (SVA) is a performance measure used in managing our growth strategy and is not defined in GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles). We also calculate certain measures, such as net interest income, core net interest income, net interest yield and efficiency ratio, on a fully taxable-equivalent basis. Other companies may define or calculate supplemental financial data differently. See Tables 2 and 3 for supplemental financial data for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002.
SVA is a key measure of performance used in managing our growth strategy orientation and strengthening our focus on generating long-term growth and shareholder value. SVA is used in measuring performance of our different business units and is an integral component for allocating resources. Each business segment has a goal for growth in SVA reflecting the individual segment’s business and customer strategy. Investment resources and initiatives are aligned with these SVA growth goals during the planning and forecasting process. Investment, relationship and
22
profitability models all have SVA as a key measure to support the implementation of SVA growth goals. SVA is defined as cash basis earnings less a charge for the use of capital. Cash basis earnings is net income adjusted to exclude amortization of intangibles. The charge for the use of capital is calculated by multiplying 11 percent (management’s estimate of the shareholders’ minimum required rate of return on capital invested) by average total common shareholders’ equity at the corporate level and by average allocated equity at the business segment level. Equity is allocated to the business segments using a risk-adjusted methodology for each segment’s credit, market, country and operational risk. SVA increased 53 percent to $2.6 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from the comparable 2002 period, due to both the $760 million increase in cash basis earnings and the decrease in capital charge, which was driven by the reduction in management’s estimate of the rate used to calculate the charge for the use of capital from 12% to 11% in the first quarter of 2003. See Table 2 for the calculation of SVA and Business Segment Operations beginning on page 25 for additional discussion on SVA.
We review net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent basis, which is a performance measure used by management in operating the business, that we believe provides investors with a more accurate picture of the interest margin for comparative purposes. In this presentation, net interest income is adjusted to reflect tax-exempt interest income on an equivalent before-tax basis. For purposes of this calculation, we use the federal statutory tax rate. This measure ensures comparability of net interest income arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources. Net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent basis is also used in the calculation of the efficiency ratio and the net interest yield. The efficiency ratio, which is calculated by dividing noninterest expense by total revenue, measures how much it costs to produce one dollar of revenue. Net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent basis is also used in our business segment reporting.

Additionally, we review “core net interest income,” which adjusts reported net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent basis for the impact ofGlobal Corporate and Investment Banking’s trading-related activities and loans that we originated and sold into revolving credit card and commercial securitizations. Noninterest income, rather than net interest income and provision for credit losses, is recorded for assets that have been securitized as we take on the role of servicer and record servicing income and gains or losses on securitizations, where appropriate. For purposes of internal analysis, we combine trading-related net interest income with trading account profits, as discussed in theGlobal Corporate and Investment Bankingbusiness segment discussion beginning on page 28, as trading strategies are evaluated based on total revenue.

Core net interest income was virtually unchanged for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from the comparable 2002 period as credit card loan growth, higher mortgage warehouse levels and higher core funding levels were offset by reduced loan levels in the large corporate, foreign and middle market loans, and exited consumer loan businesses and the net negative impact of rates and discretionary portfolio repositioning in the declining rate environment.
Core average earning assets increased $34.2 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from the comparable 2002 period primarily due to higher levels of residential mortgage and credit card loans, securities and loans held for sale, partially offset by reductions in loan levels in the large corporate, foreign and middle market loans, and exited consumer loan businesses.
The core net interest yield decreased 32 basis points for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from the comparable 2002 period mainly due to the net negative impact of rates and discretionary portfolio repositioning in the declining rate environment, partially offset by credit card loan growth and the impact of higher levels of core deposit funding.
Complex Accounting Estimates and Principles
Our significant accounting principles are described in Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements and are essential to understanding Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition. Some of these accounting principles require significant judgment to estimate values of either assets or liabilities. In addition, certain accounting principles require significant judgment in applying the complex accounting principles to individual transactions to determine the most appropriate treatment. We have established procedures and processes to facilitate making the judgments necessary to prepare financial statements. For a complete discussion of the more judgmental and complex accounting estimates and principles of the Corporation, see Complex Accounting Estimates and Principles on pages 29 through 30 of the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report.

Business Segment Operations
We provide our customers and clients both traditional banking and nonbanking financial products and services through four business segments:Consumer and Commercial Banking, Asset Management, Global Corporate and Investment BankingandEquity Investments. Certain subsegments are managed through a single business segment. Descriptions of each business segment and subsegment can be found in the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report on pages 32 through 36.
See Note 7 of the consolidated financial statements for additional business segment information, selected financial information for the business segments, reconciliations to consolidated amounts and information onCorporate Other. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified among segments and their components to conform to the current period presentation.
Consumer and Commercial Banking
OurConsumer and Commercial Banking strategy is to attract, retain and deepen customer relationships. A critical component of that strategy includes continuously improving customer satisfaction. We believe this focus will help us achieve our goal of being recognized as the best retail bank in America. Customers reporting that they were delighted with their service increased 14 percent at June 30, 2003 compared to June 30, 2002. We added 581,000 net new checking accounts for the six months ended June 30, 2003, surpassing last year’s total net new checking growth of 528,000. This growth resulted from an 18 percent increase in sales production and strong account retention. Access to our services through online banking, which saw a 51 percent increase in active online subscribers, our network of domestic banking centers, card products, ATMs, telephone and internet channels, and our product innovations such as an expedited mortgage application process through LoanSolutions® contributed to revenue growth and success with our customers.
Net interest income increased $304 million primarily due to overall credit card portfolio and deposit growth. These increases were partially offset by the compression of deposit interest margins and the results of asset and liability management (ALM) activities. SVA increased 19 percent due to the increase in net income and the decrease in the capital charge due to the reduction in the rate used to calculate the charge for the use of capital. Net interest income was positively impacted by the $5.1 billion, or three percent, increase in average loans and leases for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to the same period in 2002, as an increase in consumer loans was partially offset by a decline in commercial loans. Average on-balance sheet credit card outstandings increased 28 percent, primarily due to new account growth and an increase in new advances on previously securitized balances that are recorded on our balance sheet after the revolving period of the securitization. Average managed credit card outstandings, which include securitized credit card loans, increased 11 percent. Average residential mortgage loans were relatively unchanged. A six percent increase in average direct/indirect loans and a three percent increase in average home equity lines also contributed to growth in the consumer loan portfolio. Average commercial loans declined three percent for the six months ended June 30, 2003, primarily due to the reduced demand for new loans, compared to the same period in 2002. However, compared to December 31, 2002, average commercial loans increased $2.4 billion as we began to see signs of growth driven by loans to home builders and more general industries.
Deposit growth also positively impacted net interest income. Higher consumer deposit balances as a result of our efforts to add new customers, as evidenced by the increase in net new checking accounts and money market accounts, higher escrow balances and customer preference for stable investments in these uncertain economic times, drove the $22.7 billion, or eight percent, increase in average deposits for the six months ended June 30, 2003.

Increases in both corporate and consumer service charges led to the $170 million, or nine percent, increase in service charges. Increased levels of deposit fees from new account growth and favorable repricing drove the $148 million, or 11 percent, increase in consumer service charges. Corporate service charges increased $22 million, or four percent, as customers opted to pay service charges rather than maintain additional deposit balances in the current low rate environment.
Gains from mortgage loans sold into the secondary market, due to higher levels of refinancing activity and home purchases, drove the $633 million increase in mortgage banking income. Originated first mortgage loans increased $41.1 billion to $73.2 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2003 substantially the result of elevated refinancing levels. Subsequent to June 30, 2003, we saw a noticeable increase in mortgage rates and a decrease in mortgage applications. While we believe that the mix of channels we originate mortgages through should help to reduce the impact of future decreases in retail origination levels after the current refinancing boom fades away, we are not in a position to determine the ultimate impact on our mortgage banking business at this time. Gains from secondary loan sales increased $246 million to $225 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. First mortgage loan origination volume was composed of approximately $50.2 billion of retail loans and $23.0 billion of wholesale loans for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $22.4 billion of retail loans and $9.7 billion of wholesale loans for the six months ended June 30, 2002. Increased mortgage prepayments resulting from the significant decrease in mortgage interest rates led to a $35.5 billion decline in the average portfolio of first mortgage loans serviced to $255.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2003.
Increases in both debit and credit card income resulted in the 20 percent increase in card income. The increase in debit card income of $83 million, or 23 percent, was primarily due to increases in purchase volumes, new account growth and higher activation and penetration levels. Higher interchange fees, primarily driven by increased credit card purchase volumes, as well as higher late and overlimit fees contributed to the $162 million, or 19 percent, increase in credit card income. Card income included activity from the securitized portfolio of $78 million and $72 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Noninterest income, rather than net interest income, is recorded for assets that have been securitized as we take on the role of servicer and record servicing income and gains or losses on securitizations, where appropriate. New advances under these previously securitized balances will be recorded on our balance sheet after the revolving period of the securitization, which has the effect of increasing loans on our balance sheet and increasing net interest income and charge-offs, with a corresponding reduction in noninterest income. Beginning in the third quarter of 2003, we expect earnings to be impacted as a result of an agreement entered into by Visa U.S.A. For additional information regarding this agreement, see “Visa U.S.A. Settlement” on page 52.
Trading account profits represents the net mark-to-market adjustments on mortgage banking assets and related derivative instruments. Impacting trading account profits for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was a net reduction in the value of our mortgage banking assets and related derivative instruments of $162 million, primarily due to the impact of faster prepayment speeds. Mortgage banking assets decreased to $1.7 billion at June 30, 2003 compared to $2.1 billion at December 31, 2002 due to higher prepayments resulting in the decreased value of servicing in the lower interest rate environment.
Higher provision in the credit card loan portfolio, partially offset by a decline in provision for commercial loans resulted in a $135 million, or 15 percent, increase in the provision for credit losses. The increase in credit card provision was primarily attributable to the continued seasoning of outstandings from prior years’ new account growth, new advances on previously securitized balances, and current economic conditions including higher
26
bankruptcies. Seasoning refers to the length of time passed since an account was opened. Commercial loan provision declined consistent with the improvement in credit quality.
Noninterest expense increased $577 million, or 10 percent, primarily due to increases in personnel expense, marketing and promotional fees and data processing expense. Personnel expense increased primarily as a result of higher incentive compensation driven by strong mortgage sales production. Marketing and promotional fees were up primarily due to increased advertising and marketing investments in online banking and bill pay and card products. The increase in data processing expense was primarily attributable to increases in online bill payers and card processing associated with higher volumes of activity.
Asset Management
Despite the drop in average market indices of more than 17 percent from a year ago, total revenue declined only $30 million, or two percent, for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and net income increased 40 percent, primarily due to a lower provision charge. SVA more than doubled as the increase in net income and the decrease in the capital charge were partially offset by an increase in capital levels. The increase in capital levels was driven by additional goodwill recorded in 2002 representing final contingent consideration in connection with the acquisition of the remaining 50 percent of Marsico Capital Management, LLC. All conditions related to this contingent consideration have been met.Asset Managementis continuing to focus on expanding its distribution capabilities to better serve the financial needs of its clients across the franchise, and is on target with its goal to increase the number of financial advisors in 2003 by approximately 20 percent.

Assets under management, which consist largely of mutual funds, equities and bonds, generate fees based on a percentage of their market value. Compared to a year ago, assets under management increased $19.7 billion, or seven percent, primarily due to increased investment flows in money market mutual funds, bonds and equities. Client brokerage assets, a source of commission revenue, remained relatively flat compared to a year ago. Client brokerage assets consist largely of investments in bonds, money market mutual funds, annuities and equities. Assets in custody increased $6.9 billion or 17 percent and represent trust assets managed for customers. Trust assets encompass a broad range of asset types including real estate, private company ownership interest, personal property and investments.
Net interest income remained relatively flat as lower loan balances and the results of ALM activities were offset by growth in deposits and increased loan spreads. Average loans and leases declined $1.8 billion, or seven percent, for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Average deposits increased $978 million, or eight percent, for the six months ended June 30, 2003.

Noninterest income decreased $27 million, or three percent for the six months ended June 30, 2003. This decline was primarily due to a decrease in brokerage income, consistent with the current years’ market environment. Declines in personal asset management fees were offset by increases in mutual fund fees.
Provision for credit losses decreased $171 million, primarily due to one large charge-off recorded in the second quarter of 2002.
Noninterest expense increased $16 million, or two percent, as increased expenses related to the addition of financial advisors over the past five quarters were partially offset by lower revenue-related incentive compensation.
Global Corporate and Investment Banking
Total revenue was relatively flat for the six months ended June 30, 2003, as increases in net interest income and investment banking income were offset by a decline in trading account profits. Net income decreased $46 million, or five percent. SVA increased by 24 percent as a result of lower economic capital and a decrease in the capital charge.
Net interest income increased $157 million, or seven percent, due to trading-related activities partially offset by lower loan levels and ALM activities. Average loans and leases declined $11.7 billion, or 18 percent, for the six months ended June 30, 2003.

Trading-related revenue increased $25 million, as the $258 million increase in net interest income was partially offset by a $233 million decrease in trading account profits for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The overall increase was primarily due to an increase in revenue from credit related trading of $207 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, credit trading related revenue included $190 million in losses and $65 million in gains from credit default swaps, that were used in the overall credit risk management of the loan portfolio. See “Concentrations of Credit Risk” on page 38 for a discussion on credit derivatives used in the credit risk management process. Adjusted for the impact of credit default swaps, credit fixed income trading increased by $462 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. This growth reflects the strength of our debt securities trading platform which capitalized on credit spreads tightening in the high grade and high yield markets. Additionally, revenues from commodities trading declined $83 million in 2003 primarily due to the adverse impact on jet fuel prices from the SARS outbreak and a decline in interest rate products of $76 million resulting from volatile markets after the war in Iraq.

Investment banking income increased $64 million, or eight percent, for the six months ended June 30, 2003. We continued to maintain overall market share and gained in areas such as U.S. equities, syndications and mortgage-backed securities. The market for securities underwriting declined for high grade and equity offerings; however, our continued strong market share in equity offerings resulted in a 16 percent increase in securities underwriting fees. We also continued to maintain strong market share in syndicated loan products, which drove an increase in syndication fees of $26 million. Advisory services income decreased $36 million.
Improved credit quality in our large corporate portfolio drove the $37 million, or eight percent, decrease in provision for credit losses. In addition to credit losses reflected in provision expense, included in other income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were losses from writedowns of approximately $31 million related to partnership interests in leveraged leases to the airline industry.
29
Noninterest expense increased $144 million, or six percent, primarily due to higher expenses from ongoing litigation and costs associated with downsizing operations in South America and Asia.
While we have begun to see signs of improvement in some markets and realized success in portions of our trading business, it is anticipated that the remainder of 2003 will be challenging for the investment banking industry. We will continue to monitor market developments and take actions necessary to adjust resources accordingly to maintain our focus on revenue, net income and SVA.
Equity Investments
For the six months ended June 30, 2003, revenue decreased $7 million, or six percent and net income decreased $27 million, or 31 percent primarily due to reduced cash gains. The equity investment portfolio inPrincipal Investing was $5.8 billion at both June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002.
Net interest income consists primarily of the internal funding cost associated with the carrying value of investments.

Noninterest income primarily consists of equity investment gains (losses). Weakness in the private equity markets for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was the primary driver for the increase in equity investment losses. Impairments recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 were driven primarily by continuing depressed levels of economic activity across many sectors both domestically and internationally.
Risk Management
Our corporate governance structure enables us to manage all major aspects of our business through an integrated planning and review process that includes strategic, financial, associate and risk planning. We derive our revenue from assuming and managing customer risk for profit. Through a robust governance structure, risk and return is evaluated with the goal of producing sustainable revenue, to reduce earnings volatility and increase shareholder value. Our business exposes us to four major risks: liquidity, credit, market and operational. For additional detail on risk management activities, see pages 36 through 37 of the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report.

Liquidity Risk Management
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity is the ongoing ability to accommodate liability maturities and withdrawals, fund asset growth and otherwise meet contractual obligations through generally unconstrained access to funding at reasonable market rates. Liquidity management involves maintaining ample and diverse funding capacity, liquid assets and other sources of cash to accommodate fluctuations in asset and liability levels due to business shocks or unanticipated events. More detailed information on the Corporation’s liquidity risk is included in the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report on pages 37 through 41.
One ratio used to monitor liquidity trends is the “loan to domestic deposit” (LTD) ratio. The LTD ratio was 93 and 97 percent at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively.
We originate loans both for retention on the balance sheet and for distribution. As part of our originate-to-distribute strategy, commercial loan originations are distributed through syndication structures, and residential mortgages originated by the mortgage group are frequently distributed in the secondary market. In connection with our balance sheet management activities, we may retain mortgage loans originated as well as purchase and sell loans based on our assessment of new market conditions.
Deposits and Other Funding Sources
Deposits are a key source of funding. Tables 4 and 5 provide information on the average amounts of deposits and the rates paid by deposit category. Average deposits increased $30.4 billion to $395.6 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002 due to a $21.3 billion increase in average domestic interest-bearing deposits and a $9.8 billion increase in average noninterest-bearing deposits, partially offset by a $743 million decrease in average foreign interest-bearing deposits. We typically categorize our deposits into either core or market-based deposits. Core deposits, which are generally customer-based, are an important stable, low-cost funding source and typically react more slowly to interest rate changes than market-based deposits. Core deposits exclude negotiable CDs, public funds, other domestic time deposits and foreign interest-bearing deposits. Average core deposits increased $27.5 billion to $351.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The increase was due to significant growth in net new checking accounts, increased money market accounts due to an emphasis on total relationship balances and customer preference for stable investments in these uncertain economic times, partially offset by a decline in consumer CDs and IRAs which was primarily driven by a change in product mix to money market and other deposit accounts. Market-based deposit funding increased $2.9 billion to $44.2 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2003, as we were able to utilize more core and market-based deposits to fund loans and other assets. Deposits on average represented 53 percent and 57 percent of total sources of funds for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
Additional sources of funds include short-term borrowings, long-term debt and shareholders’ equity. Average short-term borrowings, a relatively low-cost source of funds, were up $45.7 billion to $138.0 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002 primarily due to increases in repurchase agreements, which were used to fund asset growth. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, issuances and repayments of long-term debt were $5.9 billion and $6.5 billion, respectively.
Subsequent to June 30, 2003 and through August 4, 2003, we issued $1.8 billion of long-term senior and subordinated debt, with maturities ranging from 2004 to 2033.

Obligations and Commitments
We have contractual obligations to make future payments on debt and lease agreements. These types of obligations are more fully discussed in Note 5 of the consolidated financial statements and Notes 11 and 12 of the consolidated financial statements of the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report.
Many of our lending relationships contain both funded and unfunded elements. The funded portion is represented by the average balance sheet levels. The unfunded component of these commitments is not recorded on our balance sheet until a draw is made under the loan facility. Loan commitments were flat at June 30, 2003 compared to December 31, 2002 as an increase in consumer commitments of $5.1 billion was offset by a $4.6 billion decrease in commercial commitments.
These commitments, as well as guarantees, are more fully discussed in Note 5 of the consolidated financial statements.
The following table summarizes the total unfunded, or off-balance sheet, credit extension commitment amounts by expiration date.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Entities
In addition to traditional lending, we also support our customers’ financing needs by facilitating their access to the commercial paper markets. These markets provide an attractive, lower-cost financing alternative for our customers. Our customers sell assets, such as high-grade trade or other receivables or leases, to a commercial paper financing entity, which in turn issues high-grade short-term commercial paper that is collateralized by the assets sold. The purpose and use of these types of entities are more fully discussed in the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report beginning on page 39.
We receive fees for providing combinations of liquidity, standby letters of credit (SBLCs) or similar loss protection commitments, and derivatives to the commercial paper financing entities. We manage our credit risk on these commitments by subjecting them to our normal underwriting and risk management processes. At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, we had off-balance sheet liquidity commitments and SBLCs to these financing entities of $32.3 billion and $34.2 billion, respectively. Substantially all of these liquidity commitments and SBLCs mature within one year. Net revenues earned from fees associated with these financing entities were approximately $108 million and $151 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Interpretation 46 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of ARB No. 51” (FIN 46) that addresses off-balance sheet financing entities. As a result of the requirements of the interpretation, we will begin consolidating certain of our multi-seller
35
conduits in the third quarter of 2003. As of June 30, 2003, the assets of these entities were approximately $15.0 billion. However, we are assessing alternatives with regards to these entities including restructuring the entities and/or alternative sources of cost-efficient funding for our customers and with the objective that the amount of assets that is ultimately consolidated at September 30, 2003 will be less than the $15.0 billion. The actual amount that will be consolidated and reported as of September 30, 2003 will depend on actions taken by us and our customers subsequent to June 30, 2003. The interpretation requires that when entities are consolidated, the assets should be initially recorded at their carrying amounts at the date the requirements of the interpretation first apply. If determining carrying amounts as required is impractical, then the assets are to be measured at fair value on the first date the interpretation applies. Any difference between the net amount added to our Consolidated Balance Sheet and the amount of any previously recognized interest in the newly consolidated entity shall be recognized as the cumulative effect of an accounting change. Revenues from administration, liquidity, letters of credit and other services provided to these entities were approximately $95 million and $82 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. There was no material impact to net income as a result of applying FIN 46 on July 1, 2003. See Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements in the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report for a discussion regarding management’s estimated impact of FIN 46 in 2003.
In addition, to control our capital position, diversify funding sources and provide customers with commercial paper investments, from time to time we will sell assets to off-balance sheet commercial paper entities. These entities are not subject to the provisions of FIN 46 and thus, consolidation beginning in the third quarter is not an issue. The commercial paper entities are special purpose entities that have been isolated beyond our reach or that of our creditors, even in the event of bankruptcy or other receivership. Assets sold to the entities consist primarily of high-grade corporate or municipal bonds, collateralized debt obligations and asset-backed securities. The purpose and use of these types of entities are more fully discussed in the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report beginning on page 39.
We also receive fees for the services we provide to the entities, and we manage any credit or market risk on commitments or derivatives through normal underwriting and risk management processes. Derivative activity related to these entities is included in Note 3 of the consolidated financial statements. At both June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, we had off-balance sheet liquidity commitments, SBLCs and other financial guarantees to the financing entities of $5.2 billion and $4.5 billion, respectively. Substantially all of these liquidity commitments, SBLCs and other financial guarantees mature within one year. Net revenues earned from fees associated with these entities were $22 million and $27 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
Because we provide liquidity and credit support to these financing entities, our credit ratings and changes thereto will affect the borrowing cost and liquidity of these entities. In addition, significant changes in counterparty asset valuation and credit standing may also affect the liquidity of the commercial paper issuance. Disruption in the commercial paper markets may result in our having to fund under these commitments and SBLCs discussed above. We manage these risks, along with all other credit and liquidity risks, within our policies and practices. See Note 1 of the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report and Note 8 of the consolidated financial statements for additional discussion of off-balance sheet financing entities.
Capital Management
Shareholders’ equity was $51.0 billion at June 30, 2003 compared to $50.3 billion at December 31, 2002, an increase of $697 million. The increase was driven by net income, shares issued under employee plans and net unrealized gains in available-for-sale and marketable equity securities partially offset by share repurchases, dividends paid and net unrealized losses on derivatives. The net impact to earnings per share of share repurchases and issuances under employee plans for the first half of 2003 was $0.01 per share. We anticipate that future share repurchases will at least equal shares issued under our various stock option plans. For additional discussion on share repurchases, see Note 6 of the consolidated financial statements.
As part of the SVA calculation, equity is allocated to business units based on an assessment of risk. The allocated amount of capital varies according to the characteristics of the individual product offerings within the business units. Capital is allocated separately based on the following types of risk: credit, market, country and operational. For additional information on economic capital, see Capital Management on page 41 of the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report.

As a regulated financial services company, we are governed by certain regulatory capital requirements. Presented in Table 7 are the regulatory risk-based capital ratios, actual capital amounts and minimum required capital amounts for the Corporation, Bank of America, N.A. and Bank of America, N.A. (USA) at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002. At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, the Corporation was classified as well-capitalized for regulatory purposes, the highest classification.
The accounting treatment of Trust Preferred Securities (trust securities) is currently under review with respect to FIN 46. The trust securities are currently included in the Tier I capital ratio. Depending on the accounting resolution, the trust securities may no longer qualify for Tier I capital treatment, but instead would qualify for Tier II capital. On July 2, 2003, the Federal Reserve issued a Supervision and Regulation Letter (the letter) requiring that Bank Holding Companies continue to follow the current instructions for reporting trust securities in its regulatory reports. The effect of the letter is that the Corporation will continue to report the trust securities in Tier I capital until further notice from the Federal Reserve. As of June 30, 2003, the Corporation was classified as “well-capitalized” for regulatory purposes, the highest classification. The Corporation’s classification would have remained well-capitalized had the Federal Reserve not issued its July 2, 2003 guidance.

Credit Risk Management
Credit risk arises from the inability of a customer to meet its repayment obligation. Credit risk exists in our outstanding loans and leases, derivative assets, letters of credit and financial guarantees, acceptances and unfunded loan commitments. For additional information on derivatives and credit extension commitments, see Notes 3 and 5 of the consolidated financial statements. Credit exposure (defined to include loans and leases, letters of credit, derivatives, acceptances, assets held for sale and binding unfunded commitments) associated with a client represents the maximum loss potential arising from all these product classifications, except for derivative positions where current mark to market values represent credit exposure without giving consideration to future mark to market changes. Our commercial and consumer credit extension and review procedures take into account credit exposures that are both funded and unfunded.
Commercial and Consumer Portfolio Credit Risk Management
We manage credit risk associated with our business activities based on the risk profile of the borrower, repayment source and the nature of underlying collateral given current events and conditions. At a macro level, we segregate our loans into two major groups—commercial and consumer. For a detailed discussion of our credit risk
37
management process associated with these portfolios, see pages 41 through 42 of the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report.

Concentrations of Credit Risk
Portfolio credit risk is evaluated with a goal that concentrations of credit exposure do not result in unacceptable levels of risk. Concentrations of credit exposure can be measured by industry, product, geography and customer relationship. Risk due to borrower concentrations is more prevalent in the commercial portfolio. We review non-real estate commercial loans by industry and commercial real estate loans by geographic location and by property type. Additionally, within our international portfolio, we also evaluate borrowings by region and by country. Tables 9, 10 and 11 summarize these concentrations.
We use credit derivatives (primarily single name and basket credit default swaps) with the goal of providing credit protection for loan counterparties on loans and loan commitments. These credit derivatives are marked to market, and gains or losses are recorded in trading account profits. At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, the notional amount of these credit derivatives was $16.9 billion and $16.7 billion, respectively.
Within the commercial loan portfolio, we remain vulnerable to certain weak industries and regions. These areas of weakness are the same ones we have highlighted over the past few quarters—airlines (transportation industry), emerging markets, merchant energy (included in the utilities and energy industries), media, and telecommunications services.

Table 10 presents outstanding commercial real estate loans by geographic region and by property type. The amounts presented do not include outstanding loans and leases which were made on the general creditworthiness of the borrower, for which real estate was obtained as security and for which the ultimate repayment of the credit is not dependent on the sale, lease, rental or refinancing of the real estate. Accordingly, the outstandings presented do not include commercial loans secured by owner-occupied real estate. As depicted in the table, we believe the commercial real estate portfolio is well-diversified in terms of both geographic region and property type.

The consumer loans were collateralized primarily by residential real estate. The commercial exposure was primarily to local clients and was diversified across many industries. |
At June 30, 2003, foreign exposure to entities in countries defined as emerging markets increased 14 percent to $16.6 billion compared to December 31, 2002 with the bulk of the emerging markets exposure in Asia. Growth in Latin America was attributable to our investment in the Mexican entity GFSS, partially offset by a reduction in Brady Bonds that were called during the second quarter. Exposure was down in the rest of Latin America, particularly in Brazil due to decreased trading activity with the Federative Republic of Brazil as well as a reduction in equity investments. Growth in Asian emerging markets was largely concentrated in South Korea due to an increase in secured transactions and due to increased trading of Indian government securities as well as an increase in guarantees. Offsetting growth in Asian emerging markets was a decline in Singapore due to a decrease in client activity.
41
During the first half of 2003, economic volatility in Latin America was somewhat reduced; however, we believe that growth in the region will remain sluggish. Our business strategy continues to be the active reduction of our loan and loan-related activities in much of Latin America, particularly in Brazil and Argentina.
During the first quarter of 2003, we announced our intention to restructure operations to concentrate on the Global Treasury Services business in Brazil. In support of this decision, we reduced our credit exposure by 26 percent to $867 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The primary components of our exposure at June 30, 2003 were $490 million of traditional credit exposure (loans, letters of credit, etc.) and $188 million of Brazilian government securities. Derivatives exposure totaled $37 million. At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, the allowance for credit losses related to Brazil consisted of $73 million and $60 million, respectively, related to traditional credit exposure. Nonperforming loans in Brazil were $77 million at June 30, 2003 compared to $90 million at December 31, 2002.
During the six months ended June 30, 2003, we reduced our credit exposure in Argentina by 11 percent to $412 million. Of that amount, $234 million represented traditional credit exposure (loans, letters of credit, etc.) predominantly to Argentine subsidiaries of foreign multinational corporations. Additional credit exposure was attributable to $107 million in Argentina government bonds. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, net charge-offs totaled $50 million. The allowance for credit losses related to Argentina was $117 million and $177 million at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively. At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, Argentine nonperforming loans were $204 million and $278 million, respectively.
Nonperforming Assets and Net Charge-offs
We routinely review the loan and lease portfolio to determine if any credit exposure should be placed on nonperforming status. An asset is placed on nonperforming status when it is determined that principal and interest are not expected to be fully collected in accordance with its contractual terms. Nonperforming asset levels, presented in Table 12, declined primarily due to decreases in the large corporate and middle market portfolios. Sales of nonperforming assets for the six months ended June 30, 2003 totaled $629 million, comprised of $594 million of nonperforming commercial loans, $5 million of nonperforming consumer loans and $30 million of foreclosed properties. Sales of nonperforming assets for the six months ended June 30, 2002 totaled $414 million, comprised of $209 million of nonperforming commercial loans, $105 million of nonperforming consumer loans and $100 million of foreclosed properties.
Nonperforming commercial—domestic loans decreased $516 million and represented 2.33 percent of commercial – domestic loans at June 30, 2003 compared to 2.65 percent at December 31, 2002. Nonperforming commercial—foreign loans decreased $319 million and represented 5.95 percent of commercial—foreign loans at June 30, 2003 compared to 6.83 percent at December 31, 2002. Decreases in total nonperforming commercial loans were due to reduced levels of inflows, paydowns and payoffs, net charge-offs across various sectors and loan sales.
Credit exposure to companies in the telecommunications service industry that were in bankruptcy at June 30, 2003 totaled $90 million, with associated reserves of $40 million. Net charge-offs associated with credit exposure to these telecommunications services companies were $9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003.
Within the consumer portfolio, nonperforming loans decreased $7 million, and represented 0.32 percent of consumer loans at June 30, 2003 compared to $733 million, representing 0.37 percent of consumer loans at December 31, 2002, primarily due to an improvement in nonperforming levels in home equity lines.
We also had approximately $10 million and $4 million of troubled debt restructured loans at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively, that were accruing interest and were not included in nonperforming assets.

(1) | Certain loan products, including commercial credit card, consumer credit card and consumer non-real estate loans, are not classified as nonperforming; therefore, the charge-offs on these loans are not included above. |
(2) | Includes assets held for sale that were foreclosed and transferred to foreclosed properties. |
Domestic commercial loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest were $154 million and $223 million at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively. Consumer loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest were $572 million and $541 million at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively.
As a matter of corporate practice, we do not discuss specific client relationships; however, due to the publicity and interest surrounding Enron Corporation and its related entities (Enron), we made an exception. At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, our exposure (after loan sales) related to Enron was $149 million and $185 million, respectively, of which $131 million and $150 million was secured. Nonperforming loans related to Enron declined $34 million, primarily due to loan sales.
Included in Other Assets are loans held for sale and leveraged lease partnership interests of $17.3 billion and $349 million, respectively, at June 30, 2003 and $13.8 billion and $387 million, respectively, at December 31, 2002. The increase in loans held for sale was due to the increase in mortgage production. Included in these balances are nonperforming loans held for sale and leveraged lease partnership interests of $96 million and $2 million, respectively, at June 30, 2003 and $118 million and $2 million, respectively, at December 31, 2002.
Commercial—domestic loan net charge-offs decreased $293 million to $460 million during the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002, primarily due to lower domestic gross charge-offs across all businesses.
44
Commercial—foreign loan net charge-offs were $173 million during the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $168 million in the same period in 2002. The largest concentration of commercial—foreign loan net charge-offs was attributable to Argentina.
Credit card net charge-offs increased $191 million to $701 million during the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. The increase in net charge-offs was due primarily to the continued seasoning of portfolio outstandings from prior years’ new account growth, new advances on previously securitized balances, and current economic conditions including higher bankruptcies. New advances under these previously securitized balances are recorded on our balance sheet after the revolving period of the securitization, which has the effect of increasing loans on our balance sheet, increasing net interest income and increasing charge-offs, with a corresponding reduction in noninterest income.
Allowance for Credit Losses
To help us identify credit risks and assess the overall collectibility of our lending portfolios, we conduct periodic and systematic detailed reviews of those portfolios. The allowance for credit losses represents management’s estimate of probable losses in the portfolio. Additional information on the allowance for credit losses is included in the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report on page 46.
Additions to the allowance for credit losses are made by charges to the provision for credit losses. Credit exposures (excluding derivatives and loans held for sale) deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for credit losses.

While we believe that the current credit environment seems to be stabilizing as of June 30, 2003, we have concluded that the overall allowance for credit losses should remain relatively unchanged as we remain cautious going forward given the economic uncertainty, continuing potential for one-off events in our large corporate portfolio and the risk of lumpiness in charge-offs. The allowance for commercial non-impaired loans declined $197 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, primarily due to paydowns and payoffs in the commercial loan portfolio. Specific reserves on the commercial impaired loans decreased $170 million, reflecting a decrease in our investment in specific loans considered impaired. At June 30, 2003, total commercial impaired loans decreased $709 million to $3.4 billion primarily due to reduced levels of inflows, paydowns and payoffs, net charge-offs across various sectors and loan sales. The allowance for credit losses in the consumer portfolio increased $134 million from December 31, 2002, primarily attributable to the continued seasoning of outstandings from prior years’ new credit card account growth, new advances on previously securitized balances, and current economic conditions including higher bankruptcies. Management expects continued growth in the credit card portfolio.
Problem Loan Management
In 2001, we realigned certain problem loan management activities into a wholly-owned subsidiary, Banc of America Strategic Solutions, Inc. (SSI). SSI was established to better align the management of commercial loan credit workout operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, Bank of America, N.A., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation, sold loans with a gross book balance of approximately $1.4 billion to SSI. The tax and accounting treatment of this sale had no financial statement impact on the Corporation. For additional discussion on Problem Loan Management, see page 48 of the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report.
Market Risk Management
Market risk is the potential loss due to adverse changes in market prices and yields. Market risk is inherent in most of our operating positions and/or activities including customers’ loans, deposits, securities and long-term debt (interest rate risk), trading assets and liability positions and derivatives. Our market-sensitive assets and liabilities are generated through our customer and proprietary trading operations, ALM activities and to a lesser degree from our mortgage banking activities. Loans and deposits generated through our traditional banking business generate interest income and expense, respectively, and the value of the cash flows change based on general economic levels, most importantly, the level of interest rates. More detailed information on our market risk management processes is included in the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report on pages 49 through 53.

Trading Risk Management
A histogram of daily revenue or loss is a simple graphic depicting trading volatility and tracking success of trading-related revenue. Trading-related revenue encompasses both proprietary trading and customer-related activities. During the twelve months ended June 30, 2003, positive trading-related revenue was recorded for 215 of 250 trading days. Furthermore, of the 35 days that showed negative revenue, only two were greater than $20 million, and the largest loss was approximately $25 million.
Histogram of Daily Market Risk-Related Revenue
Twelve Months Ended June 30, 2003
To evaluate risk in our trading activities, we focus on the actual and potential volatility of individual positions as well as portfolios. At a portfolio and corporate level, we use Value-at-Risk (VAR) modeling and stress testing. VAR is a key limit used to measure market risk. A VAR model estimates a range of hypothetical scenarios within which the next day’s profit or loss is expected. These estimates are impacted by the nature of the positions in the portfolio and the correlation within the portfolio. Within any VAR model, there are significant and numerous assumptions that will differ from company to company. Our VAR model assumes a 99 percent confidence level. Statistically this means that over a three to five year period, one out of 100 trading days, or on average, two to three times a year, losses will exceed the model-calculated range. Actual losses exceeded VAR once for the twelve months ended June 30, 2003.

During the fourth quarter of 2002, we completed an enhancement of our methodology used in the VAR risk aggregation calculation. This approach utilizes historical market conditions over the last three years to derive estimates of trading risk and provides for the natural aggregation of trading risk across different groups. Historically, we used a mathematical method to allocate risk across different trading groups that did not assume the benefit of correlation across markets. This change resulted in a lower VAR calculation in 2002.
The reduction in VAR for the twelve months ended June 30, 2003 was primarily due to a decline in real estate/mortgage and the 2002 methodology enhancements, partially offset by increases primarily in credit fixed income and commodities. Risk exposures can vary considerably based on continuously changing market conditions.
Interest Rate Risk Management
Our ALM process, managed through the Asset and Liability Committee (ALCO), is used to manage interest rate risk associated with non-trading related activities. Interest rate risk represents the most significant market risk exposure to our non-trading financial instruments.
Net interest income risk is measured based on rate shocks over different time horizons versus a current stable interest rate environment. Assumptions used in these calculations are similar to those used in our corporate planning and forecasting process. The overall interest rate risk position and strategies are reviewed on an ongoing basis with ALCO and other committees as appropriate.
49
Table 17 provides our estimated net interest income at risk over the subsequent year from June 30, 2003, December 31, 2002 and June 30, 2002 resulting from a 100 basis point gradual (over 12 months) increase or decrease in interest rates calculated as of each respective balance sheet date. The estimated net interest income at risk due to a 100 basis point change in interest rates increased from year-end and prior year due to our repositioning of the balance sheet in anticipation of rising interest rates next year, if not later this year.

We have been positioned for rising interest rates as shown by the results of our asset sensitivity model and in fact, interest rates have increased sharply since June 30, 2003. In early July, in anticipation of a more volatile interest environment, we began reducing our exposure to mortgage-backed securities and repositioning into receive fixed interest rate swaps with equal or higher duration to increase the certainty of our cash flows while maintaining flexibility and protecting our net interest income in a lower rate environment. Because markets are dynamic, we will continue to actively monitor market trends and take prudent steps to manage our interest rate position.
Securities
The securities portfolio is integral to our ALM activities. The decision to purchase or sell securities is based upon the current assessment of economic and financial conditions, including the interest rate environment, liquidity and regulatory requirements and on- and off-balance sheet positions. During the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, we purchased securities of $133.9 billion and $86.7 billion, respectively, sold $71.1 billion and $77.7 billion, respectively, and received paydowns of $16.9 billion and $11.3 billion, respectively. We continuously monitored the interest rate risk position of the portfolio and repositioned the securities portfolio in order to manage convexity risk and to take advantage of interest rate fluctuations. Through sales of the securities portfolio, we realized $569 million in gains on sales of securities for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $137 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively.
Residential Mortgage Portfolio
Residential mortgages grew primarily through whole loan purchase activity. For the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, we purchased $58.2 billion and $28.0 billion, respectively, of residential mortgages in the wholesale market for our discretionary portfolio and interest rate risk management. During the same periods, we sold $17.8 billion and $8.5 billion, respectively, of whole mortgage loans to manage prepayment risk due to the longer than anticipated low interest rate environment, recognizing $524 million and $138 million, respectively, in gains on sales included in other noninterest income. Additionally, during the same periods, we received paydowns of $32.1 billion and $13.1 billion, respectively.
Interest Rate and Foreign Exchange Derivative Contracts
Interest rate derivative contracts and foreign exchange derivative contracts are utilized in our ALM process and serve as an efficient, low-cost tool to manage our interest rate risk. We use derivatives to hedge or offset the changes in cash flows or market values of our balance sheet. See Note 3 of the consolidated financial statements for additional information on the Corporation’s hedging activities.
Our interest rate contracts are generally non-leveraged generic interest rate and basis swaps, options, futures and forwards. In addition, we use foreign currency contracts to manage the foreign exchange risk associated with foreign-denominated assets and liabilities, as well as our equity investments in foreign subsidiaries. Table 18 reflects the notional amounts, fair value, weighted average receive fixed and pay fixed rates, expected maturity and estimated duration of our ALM derivatives at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002. Management believes the fair

value of the ALM portfolio should be viewed in the context of the combined discretionary and non-discretionary portfolios.

(1) | At June 30, 2003, $13.0 billion of the receive fixed swap notional and $31.7 billion of the pay fixed swap notional represented forward starting swaps that will not be effective until their respective contractual start dates. At December 31, 2002, $39.0 billion of the receive fixed swap notional and $22.4 billion of the pay fixed swap notional represented forward starting swaps that will not be effective until their respective contractual start dates. |

The remaining balance related to other closed derivative products. Of these unamortized net realized deferred gains, a net of $735 million was included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income and the remainder was primarily included as basis adjustment of long-term debt at June 30, 2003. At December 31, 2002, $234 million was included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income and the remainder was primarily a basis adjustment of long-term debt. |

Consistent with our strategy of managing interest rate sensitivity, the notional amount of our net receive fixed interest rate swap position decreased $30.2 billion to $24.6 billion at June 30, 2003 compared to December 31, 2002, while our net option position increased $57.2 billion to $105.6 billion at June 30, 2003 compared to $48.4 billion at December 31, 2002. Option products in our ALM process may include option collars or spread strategies, which involve the buying and selling of options on the same underlying security or interest rate index. These strategies may involve caps, floors and options on index futures contracts.
Mortgage Banking Risk
Mortgage production activities create unique interest rate and prepayment risk between the loan commitment date (pipeline) and the date the loan is sold to the secondary market. To manage interest rate risk, we enter into various financial instruments including interest rate swaps, forward delivery contracts, Euro dollar futures and option contracts. The notional amount of such contracts was $40.1 billion at June 30, 2003 with associated net unrealized losses of $28.5 million. At December 31, 2002, the notional amount of such contracts was $25.3 billion with associated net unrealized losses of $224 million. These unrealized losses at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 were offset by unrealized gains in the warehouse and pipeline.
Prepayment risk represents the loss in value associated with a high rate loan paying off in a low rate environment and the loss of servicing value when loans prepay. We manage prepayment risk using various financial instruments including purchased options and swaps. The notional amounts of such contracts at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 were $33.6 billion and $53.1 billion, respectively. The related unrealized gain was $340 million and $955 million at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively.
Operational Risk Management
Operational risk is the potential for loss resulting from events involving people, processes, technology, legal/regulatory issues, external events, execution and reputation. Successful operational risk management is particularly important to a diversified financial services company like ours because of the very nature, volume and complexity of our various businesses. For additional detail on operational risk management activities, see pages 53 through 54 of the Corporation’s 2002 Annual Report.
Visa U.S.A. Settlement
On April 29, 2003, Visa U.S.A. entered into an agreement in principle to settle, subject to court approval (the “settlement”), the class action anti-trust lawsuit filed against it by Wal-Mart and other retailers. Effective January 1, 2004, the settlement would permit retailers who accept Visa U.S.A. cards to reject payment from consumers signing for purchases using their debit card, changing Visa U.S.A.’s longstanding “honor all cards” policy. In addition, by August 1, 2003, interchange fees charged to retailers would be reduced by approximately 30 percent. This reduction would be effective until January 1, 2004, at which time Visa U.S.A. would be free to set competitive rates. We are currently assessing the impact of the reduction in interchange fees on earnings and believe that, on an after-tax basis, it will likely reduce earnings by approximately $60 million during the period August through December 2003, and $130 million in 2004.
