Item 2.         Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations

Financial Review


Performance Highlights

        Bancorp Hawaii, Inc. (Bancorp) reported earnings for the first
quarter of 1996 of $32.7 million, an increase of 15.8% over the
earnings reported for the first quarter of 1995.  On a per share
basis, earnings were $0.79 for the first quarter of 1996, compared
with $0.67 for the same quarter a year ago. The improvement in net
income reflects a stronger net interest margin and higher level of
earning assets comparing the first quarters of 1995 and 1996. 
Although earnings have improved, Bancorp continues to be affected by
the Hawaii economy, which is Bancorp's main market.

        Bancorp's annualized Return on Average Assets and Return on
Average Equity were 1.03% and 12.32%, respectively for the first
quarter of 1996.  These ratios compare with 0.98% and 11.87%,
respectively for the twelve months ended December 31, 1995.  The ratio
of average equity to average assets has increased to 8.33% for the
first quarter of 1996, compared with 8.27% for all of 1995.

        Total assets decreased 2.3% from year-end 1995 to $12.9 billion
as of March 31, 1996.  Compared to the asset balances at March 31,
1995, assets have increased 5.8%.  Net loans outstanding increased
modestly from year-end 1995 to $7.9 billion and reported a 6.5%
increase from March 31, 1995.  The increase from March 31, 1995
reflects the change due to the securitization of $412 million in
mortgage loans during that quarter.  Deposits and securities sold
under agreements to repurchase (Repos) decreased from year-end 1995 by
2.1%, but increased by 4.4% from March 31, 1995 to end March 31, 1996
at $9.3 billion.

        Non-performing assets (NPA) increased to $62.9 million at March
31, 1996.  Comparing year-end 1995 and March 31, 1995, NPA balances
reflect an increase from $56.9 million and $52.3 million,
respectively.  A further discussion on NPAs and the Reserve for Loan
Loss follows later in this report.

        Total non-interest expense was $97.6 million for the first
quarter of 1996 compared with $91.0 million for the same quarter in
1995.  A significant part of the increase in non-interest expense was
due to the early termination of a leveraged lease resulting in a one
time loss of $2.8 million for the quarter.  Tax benefits associated
with the lease transaction neutralized the impact on net income.  The
growth in total non-interest expense remained at levels in line with
Bancorp's expectations.  A further discussion on non-interest expense
follows.

        Non-interest income, compared with the same quarter last year,
was down 5.5% to $37.6 million for the first quarter of 1996.  This
decline is primarily due to the $1.8 million securities gain
recognized in the first quarter of 1995.  Excluding securities
transactions, non-interest income for the first quarter of 1996 would
have been only 0.6% lower than non-interest income for the same
quarter in 1995.  Efforts in the non-interest income categories
continue to be important to Bancorp.  However, improvements are being
hampered by the competitive marketplace and the Hawaiian economy.  A
further discussion follows later in this report.

        On May 2, 1996, Bancorp increased its shareholding in Banque de
Tahiti from 38% to 86% and its shareholding in Banque de Nouvelle
Caledonie from 21% to 75%.  The shares were acquired from Credit
Lyonnais who will retain 3% ownership of each company.  All regulatory
approvals have been received.  The assets of Banque de Tahiti and
Banque de Nouvelle Caledonie will be included in the consolidated
results of Bancorp in its June 30, 1996 reports.  Banque de Tahiti and
Banque de Nouvelle Caledonie have assets in U.S. dollars equivalent of
approximately $800 million and $230 million, respectively.


Risk Elements in Lending Activities

        At March 31, 1996, total loans were $8.2 billion, a 1.2% increase
from year-end 1995 and 6.3% above total loan balances on March 31,
1995.  The changes in other components of the portfolio are discussed
in the following section.  The following table presents Bancorp's
total loan portfolio balances for the periods indicated.

Commercial and Industrial Loans

        Commercial and Industrial loans outstanding were $1.9 billion as
of March 31, 1996 compared with $1.9 billion at year-end 1995 and $2.0
billion at March 31, 1995.  The mix of lending in this category
remains much as reported at year-end 1995.


Real Estate Loans

        Total real estate loans at March 31, 1996 totaled $4.3 billion,
up from year-end 1995.  Total real estate loans were $3.9 billion as
of March 31, 1995 and $4.2 billion at year-end 1995.  A detailed
distribution of the real estate loan portfolio is presented in the
Loan Portfolio Balance Table.  The growth in commercial and
residential mortgage balances has slowed.  Commercial real estate
balances (excluding construction) on March 31, 1996 totaled $1.3
billion, increasing from $1.2 billion on March 31, 1995 and level with
$1.3 billion at year-end 1995.   Residential mortgage balances on
March 31, 1995 totaled $2.5 billion, and increased to $2.8 billion at
March 31, 1996.  Construction loan balances have increased to $215.4
million on March 31, 1996 from $208.3 million at year-end 1995, and
$136.6 million reported at March 31, 1995.


Other Lending

        Installment loans and leases have remained close to year-end 1995
balances.  At March 31, 1996, total installment loans were $816.7
million, compared with $817.3 million reported at year-end 1995. 
Compared with the same date in 1995 when installment loan balances
were $747.7 million, installment loan balances are up 9.2%.  Total
leases declined to $388.8 million from $392.9 million at year-end
1995, but increased from $377.1 million at March 31, 1995.  

        Foreign loan balances grew to $859.9 million, reflecting an
increase of 8.1% from year-end 1995, and 10.5% above March 31, 1995
balances.  The rise in the foreign loan total since year-end reflects
increased trade financing activity in the Asian branches.  The foreign
loan total includes $1.0 million in outstanding credits and $199.3
million in confirmed letters of credit and banker's acceptances to
Less Developed Countries (LDC) at March 31, 1996.  All LDC exposure is
in the Philippines.

Non-Performing Assets and Past Due Loans

        Bancorp's non-performing assets (NPA) include non-accrual loans
and foreclosed real estate.  NPA totaled $62.9 million, representing
0.76% of total loans outstanding at March 31, 1996.  This ratio
compares with 0.67% at the end of the first quarter 1995 and 0.70% at
year-end 1995.

        Non-accrual loans increased during the quarter to $53.7 million
from $47.6 million at year-end 1995 and from $51.7 million on March
31, 1995.  The distribution of the non-accrual loans by category is
disclosed in the table following. 

        Since year-end, past due loans have increased particularly in the
installment and residential real estate loan categories.  Installment
loans past due 90 days increased to $11.5 million, 1.4% of total
installment loans at March 31, 1996.  Residential mortgage loans past
due 90 days increased to $6.1 million, 0.2% of total residential
mortgage loans.  Accruing 90 day past due loans in total have
increased from $20.7 million at year-end 1995 to $21.3 million at
March 31, 1996.  Comparatively, $17.7 million in accruing 90 day past
due loans were reported at March 31, 1995.   The foreclosed real
estate category remained level with year-end 1995, totaling $9.2
million at March 31, 1996.  There were only 20 properties in Other
Real Estate at the quarter-end, the largest single property valued at
$6.6 million.  Total non-performing assets, including loans 90 days
past due, increased to 1.02% of loans outstanding from 0.95% at year-
end 1995 and 0.90% at March 31, 1995.

        The following table presents NPA and past due loans for the
periods indicated.

Summary of Loan Loss Experience

        The reserve for loan losses was at $152.1 million at March 31,
1996, representing 1.88% of loans outstanding.  Comparatively, the
ratio of reserves to loans outstanding on March 31, 1995 was 1.97% and
1.90% at year-end 1995.  The modest decrease in this ratio reflects
the growth in loans.

        Loan loss provisions were $4.4 million for the first quarter of
1996, compared with $4.5 million reported for the first quarter of
1995.  Charge-offs totaled $6.9 million for both the first quarters of
1995 and 1996, compared to the $6.3 million reported for the fourth
quarter of 1995.  Recoveries totaled $2.6 million for the first
quarter of 1996, compared to $4.3 million and $3.4 million for the
first and fourth quarters of 1995, respectively.  Net charge-offs for
the first quarter of 1996 were $4.3 million compared to $2.6 million
during the same period in 1995.  The annualized ratio of net charge-
offs to average loans outstanding for the first quarter of 1996 was
0.21% compared to the ratio of 0.14% for the same period in 1995.

        The detailed breakdown of the charge-off and recoveries by loan
category is presented in the table following.

Capital

        Bancorp's total capital at March 31, 1996 totaled $1.0 billion. 
New shares issued for the profit sharing, stock option and dividend
reinvestment plans increased capital by $3.7 million during the
quarter.  Under Bancorp's stock repurchase programs, $22.3 million in
shares were repurchased during the first quarter of 1996.  Dividends
for the quarter were $11.5 million, compared with $10.9 million for
the first quarter of 1995.  Dividends paid were $.28 per share for the
first quarter of 1996 and $0.26 per share for the first quarter of
1995.  

        Regulatory risk-based capital remains well above minimum
guidelines.  Bancorp's Total Capital and Tier 1 Capital ratios were
12.58% and 10.11%, respectively.  This compares with year-end 1995,
when the Total Capital Ratio was 12.74% and the Tier 1 Capital Ratio
was 10.25%.  Regulatory guidelines prescribe a minimum Total Capital
Ratio of 10.00% and a Tier 1 Capital Ratio of 6.00% for an institution
to qualify as well capitalized.  Bancorp's strategy is to maintain its
capital ratios at levels to meet this qualification to benefit from
the financial and regulatory incentives provided to well capitalized
companies.

        In addition, the leverage ratio, which represents the ratio of
Tier 1 Capital to Total Average Assets, was 7.72% at March 31, 1996,
compared to 7.55% at March 31, 1995 and 7.82% at year-end 1995.  The
required minimum ratio is 5.00%, to qualify an institution as well
capitalized.


Spread Management

        The average net interest margin or spread on earning assets for
the first quarter of 1996 was 3.80%, an increase from the 3.62%
reported for the same period in 1995, and also an increase from the
3.72% reported for the fourth quarter of 1995.  Net interest margin
for all of 1995 was 3.72%.  The growth in earning assets and the
changes in interest rates have helped improve the spread.

        The earning asset yield was 7.77% for the first quarter of 1996,
compared with the fourth quarter 1995 yield of 7.87% and the first
quarter of 1995 of 7.58%.  The cost of funds rate for the first
quarter of 1996 was 4.67%, level with the same quarter a year ago and
4.87% reported for the fourth quarter of 1995.  These changes reflect
the movement in interest rates stimulated by the Federal Reserve over
the last twelve months.

Interest Rate Risk and Derivatives

        As discussed in Bancorp's 1995 Annual Report, Bancorp utilizes
interest rate sensitivity analysis and computer simulation techniques
to measure the exposure of its earnings to interest rate movements. 
The objective of the process is to position its balance sheet to
optimize earnings without unduly increasing risk.  The Interest Rate
Sensitivity Table presents the possible exposure to interest rate
movements for various time frames at March 31, 1996.  As the table
indicates, Bancorp's one year cumulative liability sensitivity gap
totaled $0.2 billion, representing 1.26% of total assets. 
Comparatively, the one year cumulative gap was $0.1 billion at year-
end 1995, 0.97% of total assets.

        Bancorp uses swaps as a cost effective risk management tool for
dealing with interest rate risk.  Swap activity during the first
quarter of 1996 was limited to maturities of existing swap agreements. 
At March 31, 1996, the notional amount of swaps totaled $974.6
million, compared with $1.1 billion at year-end 1995.  Net expense on
interest rate swap agreements totaled $1.2 million for the first
quarter of 1996.  Comparatively, net expense of $11.7 million was
recognized for all of 1995.

Assumptions used:
(1) Based on repricing date.
(2) Includes the effect of estimated amortization.
(3) Historical analysis shows that these deposit categories, while technically subject 
    to immediate withdrawal, actually display sensitivity characteristics that generally
    fall within one and five years.  The allocation presented is based on that historic
    analysis.

/TABLE

Liquidity

        The ability to meet day-to-day financial needs of Bancorp's
customer base is essential.  Much of the strategy of meeting liquidity
needs was described in Bancorp Hawaii's 1995 Annual Report and remains
in place.

        At March 31, 1996, deposits were $7.3 billion, compared to $7.6
billion and $6.8 billion reported at year-end 1995 and March 31, 1995,
respectively.  The competition for deposits, not only by banks and
savings and loan companies, but also by securities brokerage firms
continues to impact the level of deposits.  Repos which are offered to
government depositors as an alternative to deposits were $2.0 billion
at March 31, 1996, compared to $2.1 billion on March 31, 1995, and
$1.9 billion at year-end 1995.

        Short term borrowings, including Fed Funds, decreased to $1.1
billion at March 31, 1996, compared with $1.3 billion at year-end 1995
and $1.1 billion at March 31, 1995.  Long term debt remained level at
$1.1 billion at both March 31, 1996 and year-end 1995.


Net Overhead

        The net overhead ratio at Bancorp is defined as the ratio of non-
interest expense to non-interest income before securities
transactions.  Bancorp's long term goal is to have a ratio of 2 to 1,
where fee income offsets at least half of the cost of operations.  The
ratio for the first quarter of 1996 was 2.58, compared to 2.40 for the
first quarter of 1995 and 2.53 for all of 1995. 

        Non-interest income for the first quarter was $37.6 million, a
5.5% decrease from the same quarter in 1995.  For the first quarter of
1995, Bancorp reported a securities gain of $1.8 million, compared to
a loss of $0.1 million for the same period in 1996.  These gains and
losses remained at modest levels.  Trust income reported $12.9 million
for the quarter, down 3.6% from the same period last year.  Service
charges on deposit accounts for the first quarter of 1996 were $6.6
million, compared to $6.7 million for the like period last year. 
Fees, exchange and other service charges for the first quarter of 1996
were $12.0 million compared to $12.4 million for the same period in
1995.  Other operating income totaled $6.3 million for the first
quarter of 1996, compared with $5.6 million for the same quarter last
year.  

        Non-interest expense in the first quarter was $97.6 million, an
increase of 7.2% over the same period in 1995.  In the first quarter
of 1995, Bancorp announced an early retirement option resulting from a
restructuring of its retirement programs.  During much of 1995
qualifying staff members electing the retirement option left Bancorp
providing the opportunity to reduce staff counts and control salary
expenses.  Reflecting this process, salary and benefit expense for the
first quarter of 1996 totaled $50.0 million compared with $46.9
million for the same quarter of 1995.  The increase in expense has
been driven by greater profit sharing and incentive accruals caused by
improved reported earnings.  Additionally, new products and
initiatives like Bank of Hawaii Contiki VISA card program and
outsourcing of certain back office functions have increased expenses.

        Premises and equipment expenses totaled $18.5 million for the
first quarter of 1996, an increase from the $18.0 million for the same
period of 1995.  Bancorp continues to invest in technology as more
efficient operations with existing staff counts become increasingly
important.  Other operating expenses for the first quarter increased
10.5% over last year during the same period.  The increase reflects
the leasing transaction mentioned earlier.
