2003. Although CER index continued its downward trend during the present quarter, with a quarterly accumulated 0.31% rate, the sharp drop in interest rates, which resulted in a lower cost of funds, improved the net financial margin. Similarly, Net
financial margin showed a gain stemming from the impact of the depreciation of the peso over the positive foreign currency position of the Bank. Management expects a neutral interest rate and a stable exchange rate for next fiscal year.

domestic demand also led to stronger imports which grew 25.4% in the same period. In spite of slower growth in exports in real terms (7% yoy), the trade balance continued to improve due to a substantial improvement in the terms of trade resulting
from the hike in crude oil, grain and oilseed prices. A record high surplus of more than US$4.7 billion was obtained in the second quarter when most of Argentina&acute;s bumper soy harvest was exported. In July and August, the trade balance
accumulated a surplus of US$2.7 billion, below the previous quarter due to seasonal factors. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

However, industrial production which had grown 0.3% in seasonally adjusted terms in the second quarter, increased 1.7% in the third quarter. Non durable consumption sectors such as food and beverages are now catching up with the import substitution
sectors that led the initial rally in early 2003. Consumer demand has begun to improve on the back of stronger employment figures, higher real wages and lower interest rates. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

the third quarter, private sector deposits increased almost 2 billion pesos, mostly in July. In August and September, monetary expansion decelerated compared to the previous quarter basically due to lower reserve purchases by the Central Bank.
Dollar sales from exporters fell because of seasonal factors while demand for dollars rose spurred by uncertainties surrounding the new IMF agreement and higher private debt payments. The FX rate increased from Ps. 2.8075/USD at the end of June to
Ps. 2.9110/USD at the end of September. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In spite of greater FX volatility,

adjustment in all financial statements with the restatement to reflect the overall effect of inflation on the purchasing power of the peso using coefficients based on the general wholesale price index (WPI) published by the National Institute of
Statistics and Surveys. On April 8, 2003, the Central Bank, through communication &#147;A&#148; 3921, eliminated inflation adjustment beginning March 1, 2003. Accordingly and for the sake of comparison, information on the September 2002 quarter has

relative behavior of CPI vs. interest rate and on the evolution of the exchange rate, given both a long CER adjusted position and a long foreign currency position. A significant part of the Bank&#146;s risk assets are variable rate assets, adjusted
by CER (mainly CPI) plus an interest rate, while most liabilities are fixed rate, except for certain loans granted to the Bank by the Central Bank and a diminishing $1.1 billion portfolio of rescheduled deposits&#151;CEDROS. </FONT></P> <P

rate&#151;from a 18.9% level for 30 days time deposits during the second quarter to a 6.6% level in the present quarter&#151;sharply reduced the average cost of funds, generating a gain in Net financial income. It is important to mention that CER

SIZE="2">The decrease in total loan portfolio as compared to the previous quarter is mainly related to a $660 million decrease in Public sector loans, coupled with a $34 million charge-off on commercial loans and loan cancellation. As for the Public
Sector, total loans including CER adjustment and interest decreased from $6.7 billion as of June 2003 to $6.0 billion as of September 2003. In accordance to decree 1579/02 and 539/02 (Provincial debt restructuring regime), approx. $660 million loans
granted to provinces were exchanged for a peso denominated 16 year guaranteed bond (Bono Garantizado). Therefore the reduction in loan portfolio was compensated by the correspondent increase in Public securities. Total exposure to Public Sector
amounted to approx. $9.0 billion as of September 30, 2003, 3.2% lower than the figure posted in the previous quarter mainly due to the sale of some BODEN 2012 bonds registered in Banco Franc&eacute;s Cayman. </FONT></P> <P

of September 30, 2003, including repurchase agreement transactions. The increase in Total bond portfolio as compared to the previous quarter is mainly related to the aforementioned exchange of provincial loan portfolio for guaranteed bonds (Bonos
Garantizados), registered in Other fixed income securities. The decrease in Compensatory Bond as compared to the previous quarter is related to the sale of BODEN 2012 bonds previously mentioned; this portfolio was covered with provisions and
therefore, had no negative effect on the Bank&#146;s results during the present quarter. The increase in the trading account portfolio is related to a LEBAC portfolio (Central Bank&#146;s Bills). </FONT></P> <P

accounts showed a 62.8% and a 49.5% growth, respectively. The decrease of rescheduled deposits is related to the payment of legal injunctions, to the reimbursement of rescheduled deposits according to Government regulations and to the exercise of

In addition, the Bank received loans from the Central Bank mainly related to the acquisition of the necessary government bonds (BODEN 2012) to be delivered to depositors that participated in Swap II. </FONT></P> <P

7.7% decrease in Other funding sources as compared to the previous quarter is explained by a 12.1%&#151;US$56 million&#151;decrease in Lines from other banks, explained by transactions in Banco Franc&eacute;s Cayman. As of September 2003, the only
outstanding senior debt of Banco Franc&eacute;s in the international markets is a US$135 million FRN&#151;originally US$ 150 million&#151;issued in October 2001 and subscribed by a syndicate of international banks. Such FRN matured on October 31,
2002 and was refinanced on its maturing date for a one-year term, with a 5% payment and an additional 5% down payment on April 2003. ( See <B>Recent developments</B>, Item 2). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

trade and Other fees grew 10.5% ($1.2 million), 16.6% ($0.7 million) and 4.5% ($0.8 million), respectively. Such growth, mainly originated by an increase in volume and prices, was partly offset by a 25% ($1 million) decrease in Capital Markets fees,
which in the previous quarter registered fees coming from fund management services in subsidiaries. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
