         OCC ANNOUNCES 12 NEW ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS AND ONE
                            TERMINATION  

WASHINGTON, DC -- The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency
today announced the following enforcement actions taken against
national banks.  The 13 actions released today include: two
formal agreements, nine civil money penalties, one
prohibition/removal , and one termination of an existing
enforcement action.  

Several of these actions are from past years.  In reviewing the
records, the OCC discovered their inadvertent nondisclosure. 
Therefore, they are reflected in the current list.  

A list of enforcement actions previously disclosed and copies of
the actual documents are available from the OCC's Communications
Division by writing to:  Comptroller of the Currency,
Communications Division (3-2), Washington, DC  20219.  Requests
made by facsimile transmission should be sent to (202) 874-5263.
