               Newcourt Shareholders Approve CIT Acquisition


TORONTO, Canada, October 26, 1999 - Newcourt Credit Group today announced the
approval by shareholders of its acquisition by The CIT Group (NYSE: CIT) as
outlined in the joint management information circular and proxy statement
dated September 21, 1999.

"Today, Newcourt shareholders endorsed a business combination that will
create a powerhouse in financial services," commented David Banks, Newcourt's
Chairman. "This is an exciting development for our customers and the
financial services industry as a whole."

"The strategic logic of this transaction remains clear for both Newcourt and
CIT shareholders," said Banks. "It combines CIT's extensive management
experience, 'best in class' credit capabilities and strong debt ratings with
Newcourt's innovative, entrepreneurial spirit and superior loan origination
platforms.  I believe that shareholders will be rewarded for their support
and patience."

Newcourt Credit Group is one of the world's leading sources of asset-based
financing serving the corporate, commercial and institutional markets with
owned and managed assets of US$24.9 billion and a global capability in 26
countries. On August 5, 1999, Newcourt and CIT announced that they had signed
a new definitive agreement under which CIT would acquire Newcourt in an
exchange of .70 share of CIT stock for each share of Newcourt.  The
combination of these two companies will create the largest publicly owned
commercial finance company.
