This report on the consolidated financial statements should be read in

We have audited the consolidated balance sheet of the Group 'Banque Marocaine

the consolidated income statement, the consolidated cash flow statement and
notes to consolidated financial statements as attached to this report. These
consolidated financial statements have been prepared under management of

consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the professional standards applicable

                NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE  1

Main valuation and presentation rules for consolidated financial statements

BMCE Bank's consolidated financial statements for the financial year 2006 are
presented in accordance with the provisions of the new 'Accounting Standards for
Credit Institutions' (PCEC).

They contain the financial statements of BMCE Bank and those of the main
Moroccan and overseas subsidiaries constituting BMCE Bank Group. The financial
statements of the Moroccan subsidiaries are presented according to the rules and
valuation methods of the PCEC. The accounts of the overseas subsidiaries BMCE
INTERNATIONAL, the BANQUE DU DEVELOPPEMENT DU MALI, LA CONGOLAISE DE BANQUE and
MEDICAPITAL BANK have been prepared according to the accounting rules of the
country of origin; the necessary restatements and reclassifications have been
carried out in order that they conform with the principles of BMCE BANK Group
(cf. presentation notes of the individual financial statements).

Principles and methods of consolidation

The individual annual financial statements of BMCE BANK (aggregate accounts
grouping together the financial statements for the Domestic Activity and those
of the Paris and Banque Off Shore branches) and subsidiaries controlled by it or
over which the Group exerts notable influence form the basis of preparation of
the consolidated financial statements.

The applied consolidation methods are as follows:

Full consolidation:

This method is applied to financial companies over which the Bank has exclusive
control, including those undertaking banking related activities.

Exclusive control of a subsidiary is determined by the power to direct financial
and operational policies. It results;

  • Either from holding directly or indirectly the majority of voting rights
    in the subsidiary;

  • Or from having a majority in the number of members of the subsidiary's
    administrative, management or supervisory bodies, for two successive
    financial years;

The control is presumed where BMCE BANK holds more than 40% of the subsidiary's
voting rights and no other partner holds directly on indirectly a percentage
greater than its own, in accordance with the thresholds set out by the Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles in Morocco (CGNC);

  • Or from the power to exert a dominant influence over the subsidiary by
    virtue of a contract or statutory clauses. A dominant influence exists when
    the Group has the possibility to use or direct the use of the assets,
    liabilities or off-balance sheet items in the same way as for subsidiaries
    under its exclusive control.

Equity method

Companies in which the Group exerts a notable influence, namely equity interests
in which the percentage of control ranges from 20% to 40% are accounted for
under the equity method. Notable influence is the power to take part in
financial and operational policies of a subsidiary without controlling it.

Certain equity interests, meeting the criteria defined above but whose
importance in relation to the consolidated accounts is not significant, have not
been consolidated (cf. Note 2).

Foreign currency translation

Balance sheet and off-balance sheet items of BMCE INTERNATIONAL, LA CONGOLAISE
DE BANQUE and MEDICAPITAL BANK are translated on the basis of exchange rates
prevailing at the closing date. Items of income and expenditure are translated
on the basis of average exchange rates during the period. Shareholders' equity
is valued at its historical value. Translation differences between the closing
rate and historical value are recorded in a translation reserve in consolidated
shareholders' equity.

Main restatements

The main restatements made in preparing the consolidated accounts concern the
following items :

Goodwill

Goodwill, recorded as an asset or liability, represents the difference, not
posted to a balance sheet item, between the purchase consideration and share of
the fair value of net assets at the date of purchase of the consolidated
securities. Goodwill is amortised over a fixed period determined by the nature
of the activity of the acquired company, the assumptions made and the objectives
set at the time of acquisition.

Amortisation is spread out over a 10-year period.

Leasing and rental commitments

This heading includes leasing operations, leases with an option to purchase or
equivalent and simple rental. Rental operations equivalent to leases are those
operations intended to finance goods for which the lessor does not have the
intention of maintaining ownership at the end of the lease.

 Leasing operations, leases with an option to purchase or equivalent are
recorded in the consolidated balance sheet as finance leases, that is, for the
total amount of rents receivable, less interest included in these rents. These
amounts are substituted for those which are determined according to fiscal rules
and the hidden reserve is recorded in the consolidated reserves for an amount
net of deferred taxes.

Accrued interest included in the rents due is recorded in a receivables account
as a contra to the income statement entry. The method of provisioning for
leasing operations and equivalent is identical to that for receivables from
credit institutions and customers.

Fixed properties acquired by lease:

BMCE fixed properties acquired by lease  have been subjected to a restatement
consisting on the activation of those assets on the balance sheet, while making
the distinction between non depreciable elements (lands) and depreciable
elements (constructions). These corrections have led to a restatement on the
income statement, distinguishing the financial cost from the allowances for
depreciation. Impacts on the net profit and the shareholder's equity are noted
by the means of the consolidated accounting entries while taking into account
the fiscal impact (deferred taxation).

Elimination of intra-group entries

All operations between Group companies consolidated under the full consolidation
method and which have a material impact on or off the balance sheet and on the
income statement have been eliminated.

These eliminations concern two types of operation:
     
-    Those which have an impact on consolidated income or consolidated reserves 
     (in particular dividends between Group companies),

-    And those which have no bearing (reciprocal accounts of the balance sheet 
     and income statement).

Elimination of fiscal provisions

For each consolidated subsidiary, all the provisions designed to reduce the tax
burden (deferred taxation operations) have been eliminated, for example,
provisions for investment, for staff housing and derogatory depreciation.

Taxation

-    Current taxation:

The standard rate of corporate tax for credit institutions is 39.6% on income
earned in Morocco with the exception of BMCE Bank's subsidiary, BMCE Banque
Off-shore, which was tax-exempt until December 31st, 2001. Since January 1st,
2002, this entity has been subject to taxation as applied to offshore banks with
tax exemption for the first USD 25,000 of income.

The Paris Branch is subject to corporate taxation according to the rules and
rates applicable in France where the standard rate is 33.33%. Concerning the
taxation of other subsidiaries, besides insurance companies for which the rate
is identical to that for the banking sector, the standard rate of corporate tax
is 35%.

It should be noted that for MEDICAPITAL BANK, subject to the U.K. GAAP, the
applicable taxation rules are in accordance with the requirements of
consolidation.
     
-    Deferred taxation

Deferred taxation is stated in the accounts to account for timing differences in
the carrying amount and the value for tax purposes of certain balance sheet
items. Deferred taxes are recognised using the liability method by which a
change to tax rates will result in an amendment to deferred taxes stated in
previous years. The corresponding effect is recorded in the income statement as
an increase or decrease in the deferred tax expense.

NOTE  2

Scope of consolidation at December 31st 2006

The consolidated accounts at December 31st, 2006 include the individual accounts
of BMCE BANK and those of its most significant subsidiaries. The following eight
subsidiaries are exclusively controlled by BMCE Bank :
                           
  • MAROC FACTORING
  • SALAFIN
  • MAGHREBAIL
  • BMCE CAPITAL
  • BMCE INTERNATIONAL
  • BMCE CAPITAL BOURSE
  • BMCE CAPITAL GESTION
  • LA CONGOLAISE DE BANQUE
  • MEDICAPITAL BANK

BMCE Bank likewise exerts notable influence on the following three subsidiaries:

  • Casablanca Finance Market
  • ACMAR
  • Banque de Developpement du Mali

This scope of consolidation, which includes all the companies which meet the
above criteria, excludes not-for-profit real estate companies in that the
financing granted to them recorded in the Group's balance sheet, reflects the
reality of the risks assumed and is more representative of the Group's financial
activity.

Changes to the scope of consolidation:

MEDICAPITAL BANK, the London-based subsidiary of the Bank, has been included in
the scope of consolidation.

Excluded from the consolidation list

The following four subsidiaries are also excluded from the scope of
consolidation for the reasons outlined below:

  • DOCUPRINT
  • STE CONSULTITRES
  • EUROCHEQUE MAROC.
  • MARTCO

For the following reasons:
     
     -    DOCUPRINT:

Wholly-owned subsidiary. The share in the net worth is below the threshold fixed
for its consolidation under the consolidation method.

     -    STE CONSULTITRES:

50%-owned subsidiary. The share in the net worth is below the threshold fixed
for its consolidation under the consolidation method.

     -    EUROCHEQUE MAROC:

28.72%-owned subsidiary. The share in the net worth is below the threshold fixed
for its consolidation under the consolidation method.

     -    MARTCO:

20%-owned subsidiary. The net book value of this subsidiary is nil.
