             Improved Fourth Quarter 1998 Earnings
            At Pacific Century Financial Corporation


                    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


     Honolulu - (January 20, 1999) Pacific Century Financial
Corporation, the parent company of Bank of Hawaii and Pacific
Century Bank, N.A. reported a 5.6 percent increase in fourth
quarter earnings over the fourth quarter of 1997.  Net income was
$35.0 million compared to $33.1 million reported for the same
quarter in 1997.  Diluted earnings per share were $0.43, up 4.9
percent from $0.41 for fourth quarter 1997.  Return on average
assets for the quarter was 0.93 percent and return on average
equity was 11.72 percent. 

     "The fourth quarter's improved performance evidences our
prudent and expeditious management of the Asian Rim crisis which
first impacted our results in the fourth quarter of 1997," said
Lawrence M. Johnson, chairman and chief executive officer.

     "By staying focused on our core businesses of working
capital lending, trade finance and correspondent banking in Asia,
we have been able to manage through this situation with better
than expected results."

     Net income for 1998 stood at $107.0 million compared to
$139.5 million in 1997, a 23.3 percent decrease directly linked
to the company's second quarter 1998 results, which included a
restructuring charge and increased provisioning to the reserve
for loan losses.  Diluted earnings per share were $1.32, compared
with $1.72 for 1997.  

     Total assets at year-end were $15.0 billion, similar to
year-end 1997.  Net loans ended 1998 at $9.4 billion, up 3.3
percent from $9.1 billion at December 31, 1997.  Total deposits
were $9.6 billion at both year-end 1998 and year-end 1997.  

     "There are several bright spots that give us confidence in
the potential of Pacific Century," said Johnson. "Despite a year
marked by change and challenge, Bank of Hawaii had a banner year
in residential lending, closing in excess of $1.0 billion dollars
in residential loans for 1998, the highest dollar amount ever for
any mortgage lender in the State of Hawaii."

     Johnson also noted, "In the South Pacific market, we are
making excellent progress in gaining synergies as we merge the
operations of Banque Paribas, acquired in the second quarter in
Tahiti and New Caledonia.  On the U.S. mainland, the merger of
Pacific Century Bank and California United Bank in the third
quarter allowed us to gain efficiencies by consolidating our back
office functions." 
     
     Last February, Pacific Century announced the two-year New
Era restructuring and redesign program which identified several
key initiatives for change and laid out an aggressive agenda for
accomplishing those objectives. Johnson noted that the company is
on track and ahead of schedule on all fronts of these
initiatives.  Among the key events were the merger of First
Federal Savings & Loan Association with Bank of Hawaii, and the
outsourcing of Bank of Hawaii's credit card processing.
     
     "These results are a validation of the course we have set
and the actions we are taking to transform our company and to
achieve our performance goals," said Johnson.

     Pacific Century Financial Corporation is a regional
financial services holding company with locations throughout the

varied financial services to businesses, governments and
consumers in four principal markets: Hawaii, the West and South
Pacific, Asia and selected markets on the U.S. Mainland.  Pacific

results could differ materially from those stated or implied by

currencies of Pacific Basin and Pacific Rim countries relative to
the U.S. dollar, changes in interest rates, changes in state or
federal income tax laws, changes in applicable federal, state and
foreign regulatory and monetary policy, and the nature and level
of competition from others.
