EXTRACT FROM THE REPORT OF THE STATUTORY AUDITORS ON THE 
CONSOLIDATED ACCOUNTS 
FISCAL YEAR FROM JANUARY 1st TO DECEMBER 31, 2002 
(Free translation of the French original) 

We have examined the enclosed consolidated Balance sheet statement of "Banque 
Marocaine du Commerce Exterieur" ("BMCE-Bank") and its subsidiaries as of December 
31, 2002, the consolidated income statement, the consolidated management balances 
statement and the accompanying notes for the year then ended. These consolidated 
financial statements have been prepared under the responsibility of the Company's 
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements 
based on our audit. 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the professional standards applied in Morocco. 
These standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable 
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An 
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures 
in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used 
and significant estimates made by the management, as well as evaluating the overall 
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for 
our opinion. 

An allowance for general risks, featured as a voluntary reserve and previously constituted 
after tax for an amount of MAD 150 million, is now considered to cover different identified 
risks. Thus, this allowance is no more considered as shareholders' equity. 

Except what is mentioned above, the consolidated financial statements referred to in the 
first paragraph present fairly, in all material respects, the equity and financial position of 
"BMCE-Bank" and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002 and the consolidated income 
of its operations for the year then ended, in accordance with the generally accepted 
accounting principles in Morocco and by reference to the Moroccan bank accounting plan.

APPENDIX TO THE CONSOLIDATED ACCOUNTS 

NOTES 1 

MAIN RULES FOR EVALUATING AND PRESENTING CONSOLIDATED ACCOUNTS 

The consolidated accounts of BMCE Bank Group for fiscal 2002 are presented in accordance with the provisions of the
new Credit Institutions Accounting Standards (PCEC). 

The consolidated accounts contain the accounts of BMCE Bank and those of the main Moroccan and foreign subsidiaries
composing BMCE Bank Group. The accounts of the foreign subsidiary BMCE INTERNATIONAL have been drawn up in accordance
with the accounting rules in the country of origin, the necessary restatements and reclassifications have been
carried out in order to make them compliant with the principles of BMCE BANK Group (refer to presentation note of the
individual accounts). 

PRINCIPLES AND METHODS OF CONSOLIDATION 

The consolidated accounts are drawn up from the individual annual accounts of BMCE BANK (aggregated accounts
including the accounts for domestic activity, and those of the Paris and Banque Offshore) and subsidiaries controlled
by it or over which the Group exerts notable influence.  

The methods of consolidation applied are the following: 

FULL CONSOLIDATION 

This method is applied to financial companies controlled exclusively, including those whose activity is an extension
of banking activities. 
Exclusive control of a subsidiary is assessed by the power to direct financial and operational policies. It results: 

*  From holding directly or indirectly the majority of voting rights in the subsidiary; 

*  Or from the appointment for two successive fiscal years of the majority of the members of the subsidiary's
administrative, management or supervisory bodies. 

Control is presumed as soon as 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. 

*  Or from the power to exert a dominant influence over the subsidiary, pursuant to a contract or statutory clauses. A
dominant influence exists when the Group has the possibility to use or orientate the use of the assets, liabilities
or off-balance sheet Commitments in the same way as it controls the same type of elements in the subsidiaries under
its exclusive control. 

EQUITY METHOD 

Companies in which the Group exerts a notable influence, namely equity holdings in which the percentage of control
ranges from 20% to 40% are equity companies. Notable influence is the power to take part in financial and operational
policies of a subsidiary without controlling it. 
Certain equity holdings, meeting the criteria defined above and whose importance in terms of the consolidated
accounts is not significant, have not been consolidated (refer to Note 2). 

METHOD OF TRANSLATION OF THE ACCOUNTS IN FOREIGN CURRENCIES 

Expressed in Euro, BMCE International's balance sheet and off-balance sheet commitments are converted on the basis of
closing prices. The items of the Income Statement are converted on the basis of the average exchange rate for the
fiscal year. Equity capital is valued at the historical rate. The conversion difference between the closing rate and
the historical rate constitutes an exchange adjustment recorded in consolidated equity capital. 

MAIN ADJUSTMENTS 

The main adjustments carried out to draw up the consolidated accounts concern the following items: 

GOODWILL ON ACQUISITION 

The item "Goodwill on Acquisition" shown either in the assets or in the liabilities, represents the balance of the
goodwill not appropriated to a balance sheet item, recognised on the date of acquisition of the consolidated
securities between the cost price and the corresponding share of net worth. This goodwill is amortised over a set
period depending on the nature of the activity of the company acquired, the assumptions used and the objectives set
when it was acquired. 

The entrance of AL WATANIYA into the reporting entity in 2000 resulted in purchase price goodwill of MAD 542 million,
including a valuation differential estimated at MAD 455 million according to the accountant's report. As this
differential was not identified, the totality is recognised in goodwill on acquisition. 

However, because of the strategic aim of this operation, all this goodwill was amortised over a period of 20 years. 

LEASING AND RENTAL 

This heading includes leasing, lease purchase or equivalent and simple rental. The rental operations assimilated to
leasing are those operations having the purpose of financing goods for which the lesser does not have the intention
of maintaining ownership at the end of the lease. 

Operations of leasing and lease purchase or equivalent are recorded in the consolidated balance sheet for amounts
determined according to financial accounting, that is for the total amount of rents receivable, less interests
included in these rents. These amounts are substituted for those which are determined according to fiscal rules and
the inner reserve is recorded in the consolidated reserves for an amount net of deferred taxes. 

Accrued interest included in the rents to fall due is recorded in an account applied per a contra account to the
income statement. The method of provisioning the operations of leasing and equivalent is identical to that for loans
to credit institutions and customers. 

ELIMINATION OF INTRA-GROUP ENTRIES 

All the operations between the companies of the fully consolidated entity and which have a significant effect on the
balance sheet, off-balance sheet commitments and Income Statement have been eliminated.  

These eliminations concern two categories of operation: 

*  Those which affect the consolidated profit or consolidated reserves (in particular internal dividends) 

*  and those which does not affect them (reciprocal accounts of the balance sheet and of the Income Statement). 

ELIMINATION OF FISCAL PROVISION 

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. 

TAX EXPENSES 

Current tax 

The normal corporate tax rate is 39.6% on profit in Morocco excluding Banque Offshore, whose activity was exempt from
tax until 12/31/2001. Starting from January 1st, 2002, this entity is subject to the tax system applied to Off shore
Banks i.e., a waiver of 25,000 $.  

The Paris Main Branch is subject to corporate tax according to the rules and rates applicable in France where the
normal rate is 33.33%. 

As regards tax on subsidiaries, aside from insurance companies where the rate is identical to that for the banking
sector, the corporate tax rate is 35%. 

Deferred tax 

Deferred tax is entered into the accounts when a temporary difference is identified between the adjusted book values
and the fiscal values of the balance settlements. This method is used according to which the deferred tax recognised
during previous years is modified when there is a change in the tax rate and taking account of the scope. The
corresponding effect is recorded by the increase or reduction of the deferred tax expense. 

Social Commitments 

The vacation pay provisions, which are not recorded in the individual accounts, are restated in the consolidated
accounts. 

NOTES 2 

LIST OF CONSOLIDATED COMPANIES AS OF 31 DECEMBER 31, 2002 

The consolidated accounts as of December 31, 2002 include the individual accounts of BMCE BANK and those of its most
significant subsidiaries. The eight following subsidiaries are exclusively controlled by BMCE Bank: 

*  MAROC FACTORING 
*  SALAFIN 
*  MAGHREBAIL 
*  BMCE CAPITAL 
*  BMCE INTERNATIONAL 
*  M.I.T 
*  MARFIN 
*  INTERFINA 

In addition to the four subsidiaries over which BMCE Bank exerts notable influence: 

*  AL WATANIYA 
*  INTERFINA 
*  CASA FINANCE MARKET 
*  BDM 

The list of consolidated companies, which includes all the companies meeting the criteria mentioned above, excludes
public real estate companies given that the financing granted to them which is recorded in the balance sheet of the
Group, reflect the reality of the risks taken and is more representative of the financial activity of the Group. 

The three following subsidiaries are also excluded from the consolidation: 

*  BEMCOM 
*  RANCH ADDAROCH 
*  ARTEMIS CONSEIL 

for the reasons below : 

BEMCOM : subsidiary in which a capital share of 75% is held (25% for the community of Sidi Belyout). The legal status
of this subsidiary has not been yet solved and the dissolution process has been started and will end before
08/31/2003. 

RANCH ADDAROCH : capital share of 50% indirectly held through INTERFINA. The share in the net worth is 50%, an amount
of 33.000.000 equal to the net book value and below the threshold fixed for the application of the accounting
consolidation. 

ARTEMIS CONSEIL. : capital share of 80 % indirectly held through INTERFINA. The share in the net worth is 12.009.120
equal to the net book value and below the threshold fixed for the application of the accounting consolidation. 

NOTES 3 

Under the individual accounts of BMCE Bank, some marketable securities are reclassified into transaction securities
and evaluated as such at their market value as of December 31st, 2002. 

This justified reclassification had as an impact a capital gain of about 58 million MAD. 

The cash flow statement is not established.
