  NOTES OUTLINING THE RULES, ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES AND VALUATION METHODS USED


1- FUNDAMENTAL ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES


1.1 Credit institutions must establish financial statements at the end of each
financial year able of giving a true and fair view of their financial position,
risks position and their results.

1.2 A true and fair view is necessarily based on respect for the seven
fundamental accounting principles as the recommended by the General Accounting
Standards.


1.3 When transactions, events and situations are expressed in accounting terms
in accordance with fundamental accounting principles and the requirements of
'Accounting Standards for Credit Institutions', the financial statements are
presumed to give a true and fair view of the credit institution's financial
position, risks assumed and results.


1.4 ln the event that the application of these principles and requirements is
not sufficient to obtain a true and fair view from the financial statements, the
credit institution will be obliged to provide an additional information
statement containing all necessary items of information so as to reach the
objective of giving a true and fair view.


1.5 .ln the exceptional event that strict application of a principle or
requirement proves contrary to the aim of providing a true and fair view, the
credit institution should dispense with it.

This dispensation should be mentioned in the additional information statement
and be duly justified, with an indication of its influence on the credit
institution's financial position and results.


1.6 .Seven basic accounting principles are used :

. Going concern principle.

. Consistency principle.

. Historical cost principle.

. Periodic reporting principle.

. Prudence principle.

. Clarity principle.

. Materiality principle.

2.1 Presentation

The financial statements include :

. the Head Office accounts,

. the accounts of domestic branches

. the accounts of foreign branches (Paris and Tanger Off Shore).

Significant internal transactions and balances between the various entities have
been eliminated.


2.2 General principles

The summary financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles applicable to credit institutions. The
presentation of BMCE BANK's financial statements complies with 'Accounting
Standards for Credit Institutions'.


2.3 Credit institution and customer receivables and contingent liabilities


General presentation of receivables

. Amounts due from credit institutions and customers are categorised according
to their initial duration or the purpose for which the funding was provided :

-sight and term receivables, for credit institutions,

-cash advances, equipment loans, consumer credit, mortgage loans and other loans
for customers.

. Contingent liabilities accounted for in off-balance sheet items correspond to
irrevocable commitments.

. Repo transactions, involving shares or other securities, are recorded under
the various receivables headings (credit institutions or customers)..

. Values given at receipt, which are only credited to the remitter after their
actual receipt or after a contractual period, are not recorded in the balance
sheet, but are accounted for materially.

. Accrued interest on receivables is recognised in the accrued income account as
a contra to the income statement entry.


Non-performing loans

. Non-performing loans are recorded and valued in accordance with prevailing
banking regulations.

The main features applied are as follows :

- Non-performing loans are classified as substandard, doubtful or loss loans
according to the degree of risk;

- After deducting the share of any guarantees as required by current
regulations, provisions are raised in respect to non- performing loans as
follows :

- 20% for substandard loans,

- 50% for doubtful loans,

- 100% for loss loans.

- The provisions raised in respect of credit risk are deducted from the asset
categories concerned.


. Once loans have been classified as doubtful, interest is no longer accrued,
but is recognised as income when received.

. Losses on irrecoverable loans are recognised when there is deemed to be no
possibility of recovering the doubtfu1 loans.

. Provisions for doubtfu1 loans are written-back following positive developments
in respect to the doubtful loans concerned: actual repayment or restructuring of
the debt with partial or total repayment.

2.4 Liabilities to credit institutions and customers

Amounts due to credit institutions and customers are presented in the summary
financial statements according to their initial maturity or the nature of these
liabilities :

-Sight and term liabilities for credits institutions,

-Demand deposits, savings accounts, terms deposits and other customer deposit
accounts.

Depending on the type of counterparty, these various heading include repo
transactions involving shares or other securities. Accrued interest on these
liabilities is recorded in the accrued expense account as a contra to the income
statement entry.


2.5 Securities portfolio

2.5.1 General presentation

Securities transactions are accounted for and valued in accordance with
'Accounting Standards for Credit Institutions' Securities are classified
according to their legal characteristic: (debt securities or title instruments),
and also according to purpose for which they are held (trading securities,
investment securities, investment holdings).


2.5.2 Trading securities

Trading securities comprise securities for which a liquid market exists and
which are acquired with the intention of resale in the in near future (within 6
months). These securities are recorded at cost (including coupon). On each
balance sheet date, the difference between this value and market value is
recognised directly in the income statement.


2.5.3 Securities held for sale

Securities held for sale comprise securities acquired with the intention of
holding them for more than 6 months, with the exception of fixed-income
securities intended to be held until maturity.

This category of securities includes in particular securities which do not meet
the necessary criteria for classification in another category of securities.

Debt securities are recorded excluding accrued interest. Title instruments are
recorded at cost excluding acquisition expenses.

On each balance sheet date, a provision for impairment in value is made for any
negative difference between the market value lit and book value of the
securities. Unrealised gains are not recorded.


2.5.4 Investment securities

Investment securities are debt securities which are acquired or which come from
another category of securities, with the intention of holding them until
maturity for the purpose of generating regular income over the long-term.


These securities are recorded ex-coupon on their acquisition date.

On each balance sheet date, these securities are maintained at cost, regardless
of their market value. Unrealised profits and losses are therefore not
recognised.


2.5.5 Equity interests

This category comprises securities whose long-term ownership is deemed to be
useful to the Bank. These securities are categorised according to provisions
advocated by 'Accounting Standards for Credit institutions', as follows :

- Equity interests

- Investments in related companies -Portfolio securities

- Other equivalent assets

On each balance sheet date, their value is estimated on the basis of generally
accepted criteria: utility value, share of net worth, future earnings prospects
and share price. Only unrealised losses give rise to the raising of provisions
for impairment in value on a case-by-case basis.


2.5.6 Repos with physical delivery

Securities delivered under repos are maintained in the balance sheet and the
amount received, which represents the liability to the transferee, is recorded
in the balance sheet under liabilities. Securities received under reverse repos
are not recorded in the balance sheet, but the amount received, which represents
the receivable due from the transferor; is recorded in the balance sheet under
assets.

2.6 Foreign currency-denominated transactions

Receivables, liabilities and contingent liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated into dirhams at the average exchange rate prevailing
on the balance sheet date.

Any foreign currency gains and losses on contributions from overseas branches
and on foreign currency borrowings hedged against exchange rate risk are
recorded in the balance sheet under other assets or other liabilities as
appropriate. Any translation gains and losses arising from the translation of
fixed asset securities acquired in a foreign currency are recorded as
translation differences in the securities items concerned.

Foreign currency gains and losses on other accounts held in foreign currencies
are recorded in the income Statement.

Income and charges in foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate
prevailing on the day they are booked.


2.7 Translation of financial statements prepared in foreign currencies

The 'closing rate' method is used to translate financial statements prepared in
foreign currencies.

Translation of balance sheet and off-balance sheet items Ail assets, liabilities
and off-balance sheet items of the foreign entity (Paris Branch) are translated
based on the exchange rates prevailing on the closing date.

Shareholders' equity (excluding the net income or loss for the year) is valued
at various historical rates (charges) and constitutes reserves.

The difference arising from the correction (closing rate less historical rate)
is recorded under 'translation differences' within shareholders' equity.

Translation of income statement items Except for charges to depreciation and
amortisation, which are translated at the closing rate, ail income statement
items are translated at the average exchange rate for the year: However; income
statement items have been translated at the closing rate since this method does
not show a significant difference from the average exchange rate method.

Regulated provisions are raised in accordance to legal or regulatory
requirements, in particular relating to taxation. The decision as to whether or

definite tax break, the regulated provisions, with the exception of excess tax
depreciation, are treated as tax-free reserves.
