PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

                           FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain  of the  statements  contained  in this  document,  including  Capitol's
consolidated  financial  statements,  Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in documents incorporated into
this document by reference that are not  historical  facts,  including,  without
limitation,  statements  of  future  expectations,  projections  of  results  of
operations and financial  condition,  statements of future economic  performance
and  other  forward-looking   statements  within  the  meaning  of  the  Private
Securities  Litigation  Reform Act of 1995,  are  subject  to known and  unknown
risks,  uncertainties  and other  factors  which may  cause  the  actual  future
results,  performance or  achievements  of Capitol and/or its  subsidiaries  and
other  operating  units to differ  materially  from those  contemplated  in such
forward-looking statements. The words "intend", "expect", "project", "estimate",
"predict",  "anticipate",  "should", "believe", and similar expressions also are
intended to identify  forward-looking  statements.  Important  factors which may
cause actual results to differ from those  contemplated in such  forward-looking
statements include, but are not limited to: (i) the results of Capitol's efforts
to  implement  its business  strategy,  (ii)  changes in interest  rates,  (iii)
legislation or regulatory  requirements  adversely  impacting  Capitol's banking
business and/or expansion strategy,  (iv) adverse changes in business conditions
or inflation, (v) general economic conditions,  either nationally or regionally,
which are less favorable than expected and that result in, among other things, a
deterioration in credit quality and/or loan performance and collectability, (vi)
competitive pressures among financial institutions,  (vii) changes in securities
markets,  (viii) actions of competitors of Capitol's banks and Capitol's ability
to respond to such actions,  (ix) the cost of capital,  which may depend in part
on Capitol's asset quality,  prospects and outlook,  (x) changes in governmental
regulation,  tax rates and similar  matters,  and (xi) other  risks  detailed in
Capitol's other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Should one
or more of these  risks  or  uncertainties  materialize,  or  should  underlying
assumptions  prove  incorrect,  actual  outcomes may vary  materially from those
indicated.   All   subsequent   written  or  oral   forward-looking   statements
attributable to Capitol or persons acting on its behalf are expressly  qualified
in their  entirety by the  foregoing  factors.  Investors  and other  interested
parties are  cautioned  not to place undue  reliance on such  statements,  which
speak as of the date of such  statements.  Capitol  undertakes  no obligation to
release  publicly any revisions to these  forward-looking  statements to reflect
events or  circumstances  after the date of such  statements  or to reflect  the
occurrence of unanticipated events.

NOTE A -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements of Capitol
Bancorp  Ltd.  ("Capitol")  have been  prepared  in  accordance  with  generally
accepted  accounting  principles for interim financial  information and with the
instructions for Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all information and
footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of consolidated  financial position,
results of  operations  and cash flows in  conformity  with  generally  accepted
accounting principles.

     The statements do, however,  include all adjustments of a normal  recurring

not  necessarily  indicative  of the results to be expected  for the year ending
December 31, 2001.

     The  consolidated  balance  sheet as of December  31, 2000 was derived from
audited consolidated  financial statements as of that date. Certain 2000 amounts
have been reclassified to conform to the 2001 presentation.

NOTE D -- PRIVATE PLACEMENT OF COMMON STOCK

     In March 2001,  Capitol  completed a private placement of 130,000 shares of
common stock and 32,500  warrants  (each such warrant  permitting  the holder to
purchase one share of common stock prior to the  expiration  date of the warrant
in March 2003). Proceeds from the offering approximated $1.5 million and will be
used  for  debt  retirement  and  additional   investment  in  bank  development
activities.

NOTE E -- IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

     Financial  Accounting  Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 133, ACCOUNTING
FOR DERIVATIVE  INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES,  requires all derivatives to
be recognized in financial  statements  and to be measured at fair value.  Gains
and losses  resulting  from changes in fair value are included in income,  or in
comprehensive  income,  depending on whether the instrument  qualifies for hedge
accounting and the type of hedging instrument involved. This new standard became
effective January 1, 2001 and had no effect on Capitol's financial statements.

     In early  July 2001,  the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission,  American
Institute of Certified  Public  Accountants and Federal  Financial  Institutions
Examination  Council  each  issued  new  guidance  (some of which  remains to be
finalized) on accounting  for loan loss reserves  (also known as allowances  for
loan losses).  While the new guidance does not change prior  accounting rules in
this  area,  it  provides  additional  clarification  and  guidance  on how such
reserves and allowances may be documented by management.

                        CAPITOL BANCORP LTD. - CONTINUED


NOTE E - IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS (CONTINUED)

     In July 2001, the FASB issued  Statement No. 141,  "Business  Combinations"
and No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets".  Statement No. 141 requires
that all  business  combinations  be  accounted  for under a prior  standard  of
purchase accounting,  eliminating the so-called pooling-method which was used to
account for some  business  combinations.  Statement  No. 141 requires  that the
purchase method be used for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001.
This new  standard  is not  expected  to have a  material  effect  on  Capitol's
consolidated financial statements.

     Statement No. 142 requires that goodwill no longer be amortized and charged
against  earnings,  but instead to be reviewed for  impairment.  Amortization of
goodwill ceases upon adoption of the Statement,  which for most companies,  will
be January  1, 2002.  This new  standard  requires  that  goodwill  be  reviewed
periodically for impairment and, accordingly, impairment adjustments of goodwill
be charged against earnings,  when determined.  Management has not completed its
analysis of this new standard,  however,  its  preliminary  review has concluded
that, upon  implementation,  future  amortization of goodwill will be reduced or
eliminated.

     A variety of proposed  or  otherwise  potential  accounting  standards  are
currently under study by  standard-setting  organizations and various regulatory
agencies.  Because of the tentative  and  preliminary  nature of these  proposed
standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such proposed
standards would be material to Capitol's financial statements.

NOTE F -- SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     In July 2001,  Capitol  participated  in two private  placements  of pooled
trust-preferred securities. One is a variable rate security totaling $15 million
and the second is a fixed-rate security of $10 million.  Both have similar terms
(due in 2031) and,  subject  to certain  provisions,  may be repaid  early.  Net
proceeds from these  transactions  approximated $25 million and will be used for
debt repayment,  bank development and other corporate purposes. These securities
are expected to be treated as elements of capital for regulatory purposes.

                                 PART I, ITEM 2

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

FINANCIAL CONDITION

     Total assets  approximated  $1.88  billion at June 30, 2001, an increase of
$250  million from the  December  31, 2000 level of $1.63  billion.  The balance
sheets include Capitol and its consolidated subsidiaries.

     Portfolio loans increased during the six-month period by approximately $209
million. Loan growth was funded primarily by higher levels of time deposits. The
majority of portfolio loan growth occurred in commercial loans,  which increased
approximately  $200 million,  consistent  with the banks' emphasis on commercial
lending activities.  Portfolio loan growth in 2001 is net of about $20.2 million
of commercial loans sold to other financial institutions.  Loans held for resale
(principally  residential mortgage loans to be sold in secondary markets) nearly
doubled in the first half of 2001, mainly due to higher loan origination volumes
during periods of lower interest rates.

     The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2001  approximated  $20.4 million
or 1.31% of total  portfolio  loans,  a slight  increase  from the year-end 2000
ratio of 1.29%.

     The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by
management  to absorb  potential  losses  inherent in the loan  portfolio at the
balance sheet date. Management's  determination of the adequacy of the allowance
is  based  on  evaluation  of  the  portfolio  (including  volume,   amount  and
composition,  potential  impairment of individual  loans and  concentrations  of
credit),  past loss experience,  current economic  conditions,  loan commitments
outstanding and other factors.

classifications.  The amounts  allocated in the following  table (in thousands),
include all loans for which,  based on Capitol's loan rating system,  management
has  concerns,  and  should  not  be  interpreted  as an  indication  of  future
charge-offs.  In addition, amounts allocated are not intended to reflect amounts
that may be available for future losses.

     In addition to the allowance for loan losses,  certain  commercial loans in
Michigan  and Indiana are  enrolled in  state-sponsored  loan  programs and have
additional  reserves  established  to provide for loss  protection.  At June 30,
2001,  total loans under these programs  approximated  $33.7  million.  Reserves
related to these loans,  which are  represented by earmarked funds on deposit at
some of the bank subsidiaries, approximated $1.5 million and are not included in
the allowance for loan losses.  In 2001, the Michigan agency  announced  revised
plans to terminate its loan program in 2002.

     Impaired  loans (i.e.,  loans for which there is a  reasonable  probability
that borrowers would be unable to repay all principal and interest due under the
contractual  terms of the loan  documents) were not material in 2000 and through
June 30, 2001.

     Nonperforming  loans  (i.e.,  loans  which are 90 days or more past due and
loans on nonaccrual status) are summarized below (in thousands):

     Nonperforming  loans  increased   approximately  $4.3  million  during  the
six-month  period ended June 30, 2001. Most of the nonaccrual  loans at June 30,
2001  are a small  number  of  loans  in  various  stages  of  resolution  which
management believes to be adequately  collateralized or otherwise  appropriately
considered  in its  determination  of the  adequacy  of the  allowance  for loan
losses.

     Other real estate owned (generally real estate acquired through foreclosure
or a deed in lieu of foreclosure  and classified as a component of other assets)
approximated  $2.2  million at June 30, 2001 and $3.1  million at  December  31,
2000.

(1)  As a  condition  of charter  approval,  bank is  required  to  maintain  an
     allowance  for loan losses of not less than 1% for the first three years of
     operations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Net income for the six months  ended June 30, 2001  amounted to  $4,983,000
($.63 per diluted  share),  an  increase  from the  $3,648,000  ($.52 per share)
earned from operations during the corresponding period of 2000.

     Second  quarter  2001  earnings  were a new record level of revenue and net
income.  This period was  benefited  by strong  bank  performance  coupled  with
earnings  from  Sun  Community   Bancorp,   the  southwestern  bank  development
affiliate.

     Net interest income  increased 22.6% during the six-month period versus the
corresponding  period of 2000. This increase is attributable to the expansion in
number of banks and the banks' growth.

     Noninterest  income  increased  in 2001 to $4.6  million for the  six-month
period, as compared with $2.8 million in 2000.  Service charge revenue and trust
fee income both  increased  due to volume in the 2001 period by 59.7% and 89.7%,
respectively,   compared  to  2000.  Fees  from   origination  of  non-portfolio
residential  mortgage  loans more than doubled in the 2001  period,  compared to
2000, due to higher volume resulting from periods of lower interest rates.

     Provisions for loan losses approximated $3,321,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 2001 compared to $3,366,000 during the corresponding  2000 period.  The
provisions for loan losses are based upon management's analysis of the allowance
for loan losses, as previously discussed.

     Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2001 approximated $32
million  compared with $25 million in 2000. The increase in noninterest  expense
is associated with newly formed banks, growth and increases in general operating
costs.  Increases in both employee  compensation  and occupancy mostly relate to
the growth in the number of banks within the consolidated group.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The  principal  funding  source  for  asset  growth  and  loan  origination
activities  is  deposits.  Total  deposits  increased  $228.7  million  for  the
six-month 2001 period,  compared to $179.1 million in 2000. Such growth occurred
in all  deposit  categories,  with  the  majority  coming  from  time  deposits.
Capitol's  banks  generally  do not rely on  brokered  deposits as a key funding
source;  brokered  deposits  approximated  $118 million as of June 30, 2001,  or
about 7.2% of total  deposits.  Brokered  deposits,  as a funding  source,  have
increased in recent  periods,  due to  competitive  environments  and  increased
depositor usage of the Internet, and may similarly increase in future periods.

     Noninterest-bearing deposits approximated 15% of total deposits at June 30,
2001 and December 31, 2000.  Levels of  noninterest-bearing  deposits  fluctuate
based on customers' transaction activity.

     Interim 2001 deposit growth was deployed  primarily into commercial  loans,
consistent with the banks' emphasis on commercial lending activities.

     Cash and cash  equivalents  amounted  to $191.8  million  or 10.2% of total
assets at June 30, 2001 as compared with $142.8  million or 8.8% of total assets
at December 31, 2000. As liquidity  levels vary  continuously  based on customer
activities,  amounts of cash and cash  equivalents  can vary widely at any given
point in time.  Management  believes the banks'  liquidity  position at June 30,
2001 is adequate to fund loan demand and meet depositor needs.

     In addition to cash and cash equivalents,  a source of long-term  liquidity
is the  banks'  marketable  investment  securities.  Liquidity  needs  have  not
historically  necessitated  the sale of  investments  in  order to meet  funding
requirements.  The  banks  also have not  engaged  in  active  trading  of their
investments and have no intention of doing so in the foreseeable future. At June
30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, the banks had  approximately $36 million and $62
million, respectively, of investment securities classified as available for sale
which can be utilized to meet various liquidity needs as they arise.  During the
first quarter of 2001,  available-for-sale  securities aggregating $500,000 were
sold.

     Some of the  Corporation's  banks have secured lines of credit with Federal
Home Loan Bank.  Borrowings  thereunder  approximated $47 million and additional
borrowing  capacity  approximated  $16.4  million at June 30, 2001.  At June 30,
2001, Capitol had unused lines of credit from an unrelated financial institution
aggregating $10.6 million.

     Capitol's  Board  of  Directors  recently  approved  a third  quarter  cash
dividend of $.10 per share (payable  September 4, 2001 to shareholders of record
as of August 1, 2001),  following  cash  dividends of $.10 per share paid June 1
and March 1, 2001 ($.09 per share in the corresponding periods of 2000).

                                  Page 15 of 20

     In March 2001,  Capitol  completed a private placement of 130,000 shares of
common stock and 32,500  warrants  (each such warrant  permitting  the holder to
purchase one share of common stock prior to the expiration  date of the warrant,
March 2003).  Proceeds from the offering  approximated  $1.5 million and will be
used  for  debt  retirement  and  additional   investment  in  bank  development
activities.

     Capitol   and  its  banks  are  subject  to  complex   regulatory   capital
requirements,  which require maintaining  certain minimum capital ratios.  These
ratio  measurements,  in addition  to certain  other  requirements,  are used by
regulatory  agencies  to  determine  the level of  regulatory  intervention  and
enforcement applied to financial institutions. Capitol and each of its banks are
in  compliance  with the  regulatory  requirements  and  management  expects  to
maintain such compliance.

     Stockholders' equity, as a percentage of total assets, approximated 4.0% at
June 30, 2001, a slight  decrease  from the beginning of the year ratio of 4.3%.
Total capital funds (Capitol's  stockholders' equity, plus minority interests in
consolidated subsidiaries, plus guaranteed preferred beneficial interests in the
Corporation's  subordinated  debentures)  aggregated  $166.3 million or 8.84% of
total assets at June 30, 2001.  The following  table  summarizes the amounts (in
thousands) and related ratios of individually  significant  subsidiaries  (total
assets  of $130  million  or more at the  beginning  of 2001)  and  consolidated

     Capitol's  operating strategy continues to be focused on the ongoing growth
and maturity of its existing banks,  coupled with new bank expansion in selected
markets as opportunities arise. Accordingly,  Capitol may invest in or otherwise
develop additional banks in future periods,  subject to economic  conditions and
other factors,  although the timing of such additional banking units, if any, is
uncertain. Such future new banks and/or additions of other operating units could
be either  wholly-owned,  majority-owned or otherwise  controlled by Capitol. At
June 30, 2001,  plans were in process for  formation of new banks in  California
and Nevada.

     In July 2001,  Capitol  participated  in two private  placements  of pooled
trust-preferred securities. One is a variable rate security totaling $15 million
and the second is a fixed-rate security of $10 million.  Both have similar terms
(due in 2031) and,  subject  to certain  provisions,  may be repaid  early.  Net
proceeds from these  transactions  approximated $25 million and will be used for
debt repayment,  bank development and other corporate purposes. These securities
are expected to be treated as elements of capital for regulatory purposes.

TRENDS AFFECTING OPERATIONS

     The most  significant  trends which can impact the financial  condition and
results of operations of financial  institutions  are changes in market rates of
interest and changes in general economic conditions.

     Changes  in  interest  rates,  either  up or down,  have an  impact  on net
interest  income (plus or minus),  depending on the direction and timing of such
changes.  At  any  point  in  time,  there  is  an  imbalance  between  interest
rate-sensitive assets and interest rate-sensitive  liabilities.  This means that
when  interest  rates  change,  the timing and  magnitude  of the effect of such
interest  rate changes can alter the  relationship  between asset yields and the
cost of funds.

     In January  2001,  the Open Market  Committee of the Federal  Reserve Board
decreased  interbank  interest rates on two separate dates, for a total decrease
of 100 basis  points.  In March  2001,  another  50 basis  points  decrease  was
initiated  by the Federal  Reserve,  followed by decreases of 50 basis points in
both April and May 2001 and 25 basis points in June 2001.

     Because  variable  rate loans  reprice more  rapidly than  interest-bearing
deposits, such market interest rate decreases compressed net interest margins at
Capitol's  banks in 2001.  As the Open Market  Committee  continues to influence
interest  rates and other  economic  policy in 2001,  including the potential of
additional  rate  decreases,  net  interest  margins may become more  compressed
(having an adverse impact on earnings) as the year progresses.

     Start-up banks generally incur operating  losses during their early periods
of  operations.  Recently-formed  start-up  banks are  expected to detract  from
consolidated  earnings  performance and additional start-up banks formed in 2001
and beyond will similarly negatively impact short-term profitability.  Capitol's
Board of Directors  has  determined  to reduce the rate of start-ups in the near
term in contrast to the previous three years.

     General  economic  conditions  also have a  significant  impact on both the
results of operations and the financial condition of financial institutions.

                                  Page 17 of 20

     Widespread  media  reports of  concerns  about the  health of the  domestic
economy have continued in early 2001. While local economic  conditions appear to
indicate a weakening environment, loan losses in this 2001 period have decreased
significantly in comparison to the level with the prior year's period.  In 2001,
however, nonperforming loans have increased and it is anticipated that levels of
nonperforming loans and related loan losses may trend upward further as economic
conditions, locally and nationally, evolve.

IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

     Financial  Accounting  Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 133, ACCOUNTING
FOR DERIVATIVE  INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES,  requires all derivatives to
be recognized in financial  statements  and to be measured at fair value.  Gains
and losses  resulting  from changes in fair value are included in income,  or in
comprehensive  income,  depending on whether the instrument  qualifies for hedge
accounting and the type of hedging instrument involved. This new standard became
effective  January 1, 2001 and, because Capitol and its banks have not typically
entered  into  derivative  contracts  either  to  hedge  existing  risks  or for
speculative purposes, it had no effect on Capitol's financial statements.

     In early  July 2001,  the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission,  American
Institute of Certified  Public  Accountants and Federal  Financial  Institutions
Examination  Council  each  issued  new  guidance  (some of which  remains to be
finalized) on accounting  for loan loss reserves  (also known as allowances  for
loan losses).  While the new guidance does not change prior  accounting rules in
this  area,  it  provides  additional  clarification  and  guidance  on how such
reserves and allowances may be documented by management.

     In July 2001, the FASB issued  Statement No. 141,  "Business  Combinations"
and No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets".  Statement No. 141 requires
that all  business  combinations  be  accounted  for under a prior  standard  of
purchase accounting,  eliminating the so-called pooling-method which was used to
account for some  business  combinations.  Statement  No. 141 requires  that the
purchase method be used for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001.
This new  standard  is not  expected  to have a  material  effect  on  Capitol's
consolidated financial statements.

     Statement No. 142 requires that goodwill no longer be amortized and charged
against  earnings,  but instead to be reviewed for  impairment.  Amortization of
goodwill ceases upon adoption of the Statement,  which for most companies,  will
be January  1, 2002.  This new  standard  requires  that  goodwill  be  reviewed
periodically for impairment and, accordingly, impairment adjustments of goodwill
be charged against earnings,  when determined.  Management has not completed its
analysis of this new standard,  however,  its  preliminary  review has concluded
that, upon  implementation,  future  amortization of goodwill will be reduced or
eliminated.

     A variety of proposed  or  otherwise  potential  accounting  standards  are
currently under study by  standard-setting  organizations and various regulatory
agencies.  Because of the tentative  and  preliminary  nature of these  proposed
standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such proposed
standards would be material to Capitol's financial statements.
