PART I
Item 1. Business.
THE CORPORATION
Marshall & Ilsley Corporation ("M&I" or the "Corporation") is a Wisconsin
corporation incorporated in 1959 as a registered bank holding company under the
Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. M&I's principal assets are the
stock of its subsidiaries. M&I presently owns substantially all the capital
stock of 36 banks with a total of 129 offices in Wisconsin and 12 offices in
Arizona. M&I also owns all of the stock of a number of companies engaged in
businesses that the Federal Reserve Board (the "Board") has determined to be
closely-related to banking, including the businesses of investment management,
trust, insurance agency, equipment leasing, mortgage banking, venture capital,
brokerage services, financial advisory services, and data processing. As a
bank holding company, M&I provides financial and managerial assistance and
services to its subsidiaries. At December 31, 1993, M&I had consolidated total
assets of approximately $8.0 billion and consolidated total deposits of
approximately $6.2 billion. Based on consolidated assets as of December 31,
1993, M&I was the second largest bank holding company headquartered in the
State of Wisconsin.
The executive offices of M&I are located at 770 North Water Street,
Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53202 (telephone number: (414) 765-7801).
Pending Merger with Valley Bancorporation
On September 19, 1993, M&I entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
("Merger Agreement") with Valley Bancorporation ("Valley") which provided for,
among other things, the merger of Valley with and into M&I (the "Merger"). The
Merger Agreement provides that each share of Valley common stock outstanding
at the effective date of the Merger will be converted into 1.72 shares of M&I
common stock. The Merger Agreement was approved by the shareholders of M&I and
Valley on February 15, 1994. Completion of the Merger is subject to the
conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, including receipt of all required
regulatory approvals. M&I currently expects the Merger to be completed in the
second quarter of 1994. The foregoing description of the Merger and the Merger
Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to M&I's Registration
Statement on Form S-4 (Reg. No. 33-51753) and M&I's Form 8-K dated February 23,
1994 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Valley is a Wisconsin corporation incorporated in 1962 and a registered
bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended and
registered savings and loan holding company under the Home Owners' Loan Act of
1933, as amended. Valley's principal assets are the stock of its subsidiaries.
Valley presently owns substantially all of the capital stock of 15 banks and
2 savings associations with a total of 160 offices in Wisconsin. Valley also
owns several companies engaged in businesses which are closely related to
banking, including the businesses of trust and fiduciary services, credit card
products and processing, brokerage services, mortgage banking and insurance
agency services. Valley provides financial and managerial assistance and
services to its subsidiaries. At December 31, 1993, Valley had consolidated
total assets of approximately $4.6 billion, consolidated total deposits of
approximately $4.0 billion, and consolidated shareholders' equity of
approximately $366 million.
BUSINESS OF M&I
M&I, through its subsidiaries, engages principally in one line of
business, that of providing financial services to a wide variety of corporate,
institutional, government and individual customers. Activities in which M&I
and its subsidiaries are presently engaged or may undertake in the future are
subject to certain statutory and regulatory restrictions. In addition,
applicable law and regulations limit the amount of dividends payable to M&I by
its bank subsidiaries (which indirectly limits the amount of dividends payable
by M&I to its shareholders), the amount of loans made by M&I's bank
subsidiaries to any one borrower, the amount of funds transferred by M&I's bank
subsidiaries to M&I's other subsidiaries, and the total assets owned by M&I in
relation to its capital (which indirectly limits the total income generated by
M&I). See "Government Supervision and Regulation."
As a registered bank holding company, M&I owns directly or indirectly all
or substantially all of the capital stock of 35 commercial banks in Wisconsin
and one commercial bank in Phoenix, Arizona, and all of the capital stock of
subsidiaries engaged in the following non-banking businesses approved by the
Board for bank holding companies: personal property lease financing;
investment management and advisory activities; data processing services and
software sales to financial institutions; commercial mortgage banking;
residential mortgage banking; venture capital and financial advisory services;
trust services to residents of Wisconsin, Arizona and Florida; brokerage
services; and general insurance agency activities.
The Bank Holding Company Act and rules promulgated thereunder authorize
M&I to engage in activities deemed by the Board to be so closely related to
banking as to be a proper incident thereto. Financial services and products
which are or may be provided by M&I and its direct and indirect subsidiaries
are subject to certain statutory and regulatory restrictions. See "Government
Supervision and Regulation."
M&I's principal role is to provide its subsidiaries with financial and
managerial assistance. M&I assists its subsidiaries in such areas as
budgeting, tax planning and compliance, asset and liability management,
investment administration and portfolio planning, business development,
advertising, and human resources management. Although the officers and
directors of each subsidiary are responsible for conducting the day to day
affairs of the subsidiary, M&I establishes lending and accounting policies,
budgetary goals and long-range plans and assures compliance therewith through
its centralized audit and accounting systems and loan examinations.
M&I derives substantially all its income from investments in, advances
to and service fees from its subsidiaries. Dividends and interest from
subsidiaries are M&I's major sources of cash. Dividend payments from
subsidiaries are determined on an individual basis and generally in relation
to the earnings, credit quality and capital position of each subsidiary. M&I
increases the capital of its banking subsidiaries primarily through the
retention of earnings and, if necessary, the purchase of securities by M&I,
rather than through direct capital financing by the subsidiary banks. However,
the subsidiary banks may issue debt securities directly in order to fund their
operations.
BANKING AND BANK-RELATED SUBSIDIARIES
M&I's 36 bank subsidiaries ("M&I bank subsidiaries") are located in
communities throughout the State of Wisconsin and the Phoenix, Arizona
metropolitan area and provide a full range of banking services to individuals,
corporations and local governments in each of the areas they serve. M&I's
largest bank subsidiary is M&I Marshall & Ilsley Bank ("M&I Bank"), which was
founded in 1847. Based on consolidated assets of approximately $2.8 billion
as of December 31, 1993, M&I Bank was the third largest bank and the largest
state-chartered bank in the State of Wisconsin. M&I Bank maintains its
headquarters in the City of Milwaukee and operates 23 additional branches and
divisions in Milwaukee and in surrounding suburban communities, as well as a
branch in the Cayman Islands. Banking services provided by M&I Bank and other
M&I bank subsidiaries include retail, international and corporate banking,
investment, trust and insurance agency activities. In addition, M&I Bank
engages in correspondent banking services.
All M&I bank subsidiaries are members of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation ("FDIC"). In addition, M&I Bank and M&I's seven national bank
subsidiaries are members of the Federal Reserve System (the "System"). All M&I
bank subsidiaries operate under names which incorporate the designation "M&I."
Insurance Agencies
M&I offers insurance agency services through M&I Insurance Services,
Inc., a subsidiary of a state chartered subsidiary bank with offices located
in numerous communities throughout Wisconsin. M&I, through its subsidiaries,
offers a full line of annuity, life, health and casualty insurance products.
Investment Management and Trust Services
M&I Investment Management Corp., a subsidiary of M&I, located in
Milwaukee, Wisconsin, offers a full range of asset management services to the
M&I trust company subsidiaries and to other corporate, institutional and
individual customers, including the Marshall Funds, an open-end investment
company consisting of six portfolios. As of December 31, 1993, M&I Investment
Management Corp. had $5.7 billion in assets under management.
Marshall and Ilsley Trust Company, a subsidiary of M&I ("M&I Trust"),
provides a full range of trust services to individual, not-for-profit and
corporate customers. The Personal Trust Administrative Group provides trust,
estate and agency services for individuals. The Employee Benefits
Administrative Group administers pension, profit sharing and other forms of
employee benefit plans, including a Keogh Plan for self-employed individuals.
In addition to trust services provided by its Milwaukee office, M&I Trust
operates six trust service offices located in M&I subsidiary banks in Beloit,
Madison, Racine, Stevens Point, Watertown and Wausau, Wisconsin, and another
office in Brookfield, Wisconsin (not a trust service office).
M&I also provides trust and investment counseling services through two
out-of-state subsidiaries. M&I Marshall and Ilsley Trust Company of Arizona
("M&I Trust Arizona") was organized in 1976, with a primary emphasis on
providing trust and investment counseling services to the growing number of
Wisconsin natives retired in the Southwest. M&I Trust Arizona has offices in
Phoenix and in Sun City serving residents of those areas. The Marshall and
Ilsley Trust Company of Florida, located in Naples, was organized in 1984 to
provide trust and investment counseling services to residents of the area,
including Wisconsin natives who have retired in Florida. As of December 31,
1993, the market value of assets held in trust by the three trust companies
totalled $17.3 billion.
Equipment Leasing
M&I's subsidiary, M&I First National Leasing Corp. ("FNL"), acting as
owner and lessor, leases a variety of equipment and machinery, including
industrial machinery, computers, hospital and nursing home equipment and
construction equipment to both large and small businesses. FNL has its
headquarters in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and has offices in numerous other states.
Approximately 28% of its business comes from Wisconsin and 72% from other
states. At December 31, 1993, FNL held net lease and installment receivables
of approximately $236 million. FNL's competitors include other independent
leasing companies, banks and other institutions, some of which have larger
volume businesses and substantially greater resources.
Mortgage Banking
M&I has two subsidiaries engaged in mortgage banking, one providing
commercial financing and the other providing residential financing.
M&I Mortgage Corp. ("M&I Mortgage"), located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin,
with offices in Green Bay, La Crosse and Madison, Wisconsin, originates and
purchases long-term mortgages on one-to-four family owner-occupied residences
for sale in the secondary market. After sale to the secondary market, these
mortgages are serviced for the investor by M&I Mortgage. At December 31, 1993,
M&I Mortgage had a mortgage servicing portfolio of approximately $1.9 billion.
M&I Mortgage serves homeowners throughout the State of Wisconsin and offers
financing alternatives beyond those offered through traditional banking
institutions. M&I Mortgage also assists M&I bank subsidiaries in originating,
selling and servicing residential mortgage loans.
Richter-Schroeder Company ("RSC"), located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin,
originates long-term commercial real estate loans for institutional investors
such as large life insurance companies. RSC services the mortgages for the
purchasing investor. RSC is one of the few mortgage banking firms in Wisconsin
that specializes in income property financing, seeking investment opportunities
for mortgage lenders in the retail, industrial and office sectors. RSC is one
of the largest income property mortgage banking firms in Wisconsin, servicing
a portfolio of approximately $235 million for investors.
Venture Capital and Financial Advisory Services
M&I Capital Markets Group, Inc. ("Capital Markets"), a subsidiary of M&I,
located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, provides venture capital and financial
advisory services to a variety of customers, primarily in Southeastern
Wisconsin and surrounding areas. Capital Markets seeks to invest in businesses
that have talented management and technological advantages in their particular
field. Capital Markets also provides a broad range of financial advisory and
strategic planning services, including assistance in connection with the
private placement of securities, raising of funds for expansion, leveraged buy-
outs, divestitures and mergers and acquisitions. A subsidiary company of
Capital Markets, M&I Ventures Corporation, is licensed as a small business
investment company.
Brokerage Services
M&I Brokerage Services, Inc. ("M&I Brokerage"), a subsidiary of M&I
Capital Markets Group, Inc., located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, provides
brokerage and other investment related services to a variety of retail and
commercial customers. As a broker-dealer firm registered with the National
Association of Securities Dealers and the Securities Exchange Commission, M&I
Brokerage serves as an introducing broker-dealer. Customer accounts and
securities are carried on a "fully disclosed" basis with the Pershing division
of Donaldson, Lufkin and Jenrette.
Data Services
M&I Data Services, Inc. ("M&I Data Services"), a subsidiary of M&I, is
a major supplier of data processing services and software to financial
institutions in the United States, including M&I and the M&I bank subsidiaries.
M&I Data Services presently serves over 500 financial institutions in 40 states
and the District of Columbia. In addition to data processing services, M&I
Data Services develops a comprehensive line of financial services software
products. M&I Data Services also sells software to foreign financial
institutions, and has contracts with sixteen foreign based institutions,
including banks in Canada, Great Britain, India, Indonesia, Italy, Malaysia,
Switzerland and Thailand. M&I Data Services' processing systems encompass five
major processing functions: Deposits, Loans, Financial Accounting, Customer
Information and Trust Accounting.
M&I Data Services' main data processing center and headquarters are
located in a 328,000 square foot building on 20 acres of land situated in Brown
Deer, a Milwaukee suburb, (the "Brown Deer Operations Center"). A new addition
that nearly doubled the size of the Brown Deer Operations Center was completed
in 1993. M&I Data Services also leases 50,000 square feet of commercial office
space in Brown Deer for the development and sale of software packages, the sale
and support of personal computer networks and the development and support of
trust processing services. The Brown Deer Operations Center acts as an
intermediary in bank-to-bank transactions and provides funds processing
services in connection with both incoming deposits and outgoing payments,
including transfers by check and by the bank's wire and money transfer systems.
M&I Data Services operates eight remote processing centers in Arizona,
Illinois, New York, Florida and Wisconsin. All remote processing centers
transmit information taken from checks and other documents to the host sites,
where the information is processed and printed on reports which are
subsequently sent to customers.
During recent years the financial services industry has witnessed an
acceleration of both state and federal deregulation, advances in technology,
increased consumer awareness and expectations as to banking services, and new
product development. These factors have lessened distinctions between the
various types of financial institutions and have increased competition and
pressure on operating margins. Accordingly, the financial services industry
has emphasized the development of new technology-based products and services
in order to reduce operating costs while responding to consumer demands and the
need for product differentiation. Software, support operations, and new
product development have become more complex and expensive for financial
institutions to do on their own, and hence there is an increased need for the
services offered by third-parties such as M&I Data Services. Large third-party
servicers have the technical ability to respond to the data processing
requirements of new products and services and are able to spread development
and maintenance costs over a broader customer base, resulting in more efficient
service. Some larger financial institutions have ceased providing data
processing services to their correspondent banks or have decided to terminate
their in-house data processing operations in order to conserve resources and
concentrate on core banking business. M&I Data Services is concentrating its
sales efforts on the outsourcing opportunities at these larger financial
institutions.
The market for banking technology services is national in scope because
customers' data can be transmitted to and from, and processed on-line by, a
data center in any part of the United States. In any given geographic area,
M&I Data Services' competitors vary in size and include national, regional and
local operations. While historically the bank data processing industry has
been highly decentralized, there is an accelerating trend toward consolidation
in the industry, resulting in fewer companies competing over larger geographic
regions. As consolidation continues, successful companies in this business are
likely to increase substantially in size as the scale of activity necessary to
compete increases.
PRINCIPAL SOURCES OF REVENUE
The table below shows the amount and percentages of M&I's total
consolidated operating income resulting from interest and fees on loans,

M&I business segment information is contained in note 17 of the Notes to
the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8 hereof.
COMPETITION
M&I and its subsidiaries face substantial competition in the financial
service markets they serve. M&I's banking subsidiaries compete for deposits
and other sources of funds and for credit relationships with other national and
state banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions, finance companies,
money market funds, life insurance companies (and other long-term lenders) and
other financial and non-financial companies, many of which offer products
functionally equivalent to bank products and located both within and outside
M&I's primary market area. M&I's non-bank subsidiaries compete with numerous
banks, finance companies, data servicing companies, leasing companies, mortgage
bankers, insurance companies, brokerage firms, financial advisors, trust
companies, mutual funds and investment bankers in Wisconsin and throughout the
United States. In addition, M&I competes for funds with both financial and
non-financial institutions in a variety of financial markets. Improving the
quality and broadening the range of financially related services to customers,
easier access to facilities and competitive pricing are among the principal
methods of meeting competition in the financial service industry.
EMPLOYEES
As of December 31, 1993, M&I and its subsidiaries employed in the
aggregate approximately 6,611 full and part-time employees. M&I and its
subsidiaries maintain retirement plans for the benefit of all qualified
employees. M&I considers employee relations to be excellent. None of the
employees of M&I and its subsidiaries are represented by a collective
bargaining group.
GOVERNMENT SUPERVISION AND REGULATION
Governance of Bank Holding Companies
M&I is a bank holding company registered with and subject to regulation
by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Board") under the
Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "Act"). The Act requires M&I
to file with the Board annual reports and such additional information as the
Board may require and authorizes the Board to conduct examinations of M&I and
its subsidiaries.
The Act requires every bank holding company to obtain the prior approval
of the Board before it may acquire substantially all the assets of any bank,
or ownership or control of any voting shares of any bank, if, after such
acquisition, it would own or control, directly or indirectly, more than 5% of
the voting shares of such bank. Under existing federal and state laws, the
Board generally may not approve the acquisition by M&I of the voting shares of,
or substantially all the assets of, any bank located outside the State of
Wisconsin, except for the acquisition of certain failing banks, as permitted
under Section 13(f) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, or as otherwise
permitted by state law in compliance with Section 3(d) of the Act. Section
3(d) of the Act provides that interstate acquisitions of banks may be approved
by the Board where such acquisition is specifically authorized by the laws of
the state in which the acquired bank is located.
A number of states have laws allowing interstate acquisitions within a
specified geographic region if one or more other states within the region
permit reciprocal acquisitions of banks and bank holding companies located in
their states. Wisconsin enacted a regional interstate banking statute in 1987.
The law provides for a region comprised of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky,
Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio and Wisconsin. The law allows an in-state
bank and in-state bank holding company (institutions which have their principal
office in Wisconsin) to acquire or merge with a regional state bank or bank
holding company (institutions which have their principal office in a state
within the region) subject to certain filing requirements with the Wisconsin
Commissioner of Banking (the "Commissioner"). Similarly, a regional state bank
holding company may acquire or merge with an in-state bank or bank holding
company if various conditions are met. In addition, M&I may be able to acquire
or establish banks outside of the midwest region which are located in numerous
states and the District of Columbia which have adopted interstate banking not
regionally restricted or subject to the existence of reciprocal legislation,
or other states that have "trigger" dates which convert regional interstate
legislation into full national, non-reciprocal, interstate legislation.
The Act limits the activities of bank holding companies to managing,
controlling, and servicing their subsidiary banks and to engaging in certain
non-banking activities determined by the Board to be so "closely related" to
banking or to managing or controlling banks as to be a "proper incident"
thereto. With the exception of such closely related activities, bank holding
companies are prohibited from acquiring direct or indirect ownership of more
than 5% of the voting stock of any company which is not a bank. The Board's
approval must be obtained prior to M&I's engaging in any such closely-related
activities, or in acquiring more than 5% of the voting shares of any company
engaged in such activities, or in some instances expanding the nature of such
activities or opening new offices. The Board also has permitted bank holding
companies to engage in certain additional activities on a case-by-case basis.
The Board has generally followed a restrictive policy in permitting the entry
or expansion of bank holding companies and other bank affiliates into domestic
and foreign bank and bank-related activities. Neither the Act nor applicable
law generally imposes geographic restrictions on the activities of non-bank
subsidiaries of bank holding companies.
The Act and the Federal Reserve Act (which applies to M&I's largest
subsidiary bank) and other state and Federal laws and regulations promulgated
thereunder limit the products and services offered by M&I and its subsidiaries
(as discussed above), the amount of loans made to any one borrower, the nature
of securities in which M&I may invest, deal in or underwrite, and the total
assets owned by M&I relative to its capital (which, in turn, restricts the
income generated by M&I). The Act and regulations of the Board also prohibit
M&I and its subsidiaries from engaging in certain tie-in arrangements in
connection with any extension of credit, lease or sale of property or
furnishing of services.
In addition to the Act, M&I's ability to enter various aspects of the
securities business may be limited by the Glass-Steagall Act. (The "Glass-
Steagall Act" is the name commonly used to refer to sections 16, 20, 21 and 32
of the Banking Act of 1933, 12 U.S.C. 24 (seventh), 78, 377-78.) The Board
has permitted bank holding companies to establish non-bank subsidiaries for the
purpose of conducting securities related activities under certain conditions
and restrictions.
In 1991, Congress passed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDICIA"). FDICIA created a comprehensive new
regulatory structure for banks based on five categories of capitalization. The
primary focus of FDICIA was on the regulation of undercapitalized institutions,
though the law also placed limitations on the corporate activities of
financially strong institutions and their holding companies. Those
institutions which qualify as undercapitalized are subject to substantial
restrictions on their activities and to strict regulatory oversight. For
severely undercapitalized institutions, regulators may limit the institution's
ability to conduct transactions with affiliates, prohibit deposits from
correspondent institutions, require prior approval for capital distributions
by the institution's holding company and require the holding company to divest
the institution or any nondepository affiliate of the institution which is in
danger of becoming insolvent. Similarly, all depository institutions are
subject to capital distribution restrictions if making such distribution would
cause the institution to become undercapitalized. FDICIA required banking
regulators to propose and adopt regulations addressing a number of subjects,
many of which were adopted in 1992 and 1993 and are discussed more fully
below. FDICIA and the regulations promulgated thereunder have not materially
affected the operations of M&I or the M&I bank subsidiaries and M&I does not
believe that any further regulations to be promulgated in the future under
FDICIA will have an adverse effect on its operations or those of its
subsidiaries.
M&I is a legal entity separate and distinct from its subsidiaries.
Accordingly, the right of M&I, and thus the right of M&I's creditors and
shareholders, to participate in any distribution of the assets or income of any
subsidiary is necessarily subject to the prior claims of creditors of such
subsidiary, except to the extent that claims of M&I itself as a creditor may
be recognized. Payment of dividends to M&I by M&I bank subsidiaries is subject
to various state and federal regulatory limitations. In general, under
Wisconsin banking law, the board of directors of a state chartered subsidiary
bank may declare and pay a dividend from so much of the bank's undivided
profits as the board shall deem expedient, provided the payment of such
dividend does not in any way impair or diminish the bank's capital, or reduce
the capital level below minimum required levels set by regulatory agencies.
Under Federal law, which applies to national banks and state banks which are
members of the System, regulatory approval is required for the payment of
dividends by any bank in any calendar year in excess of such bank's net income
for that year combined with the retained net income of the two preceding years,
plus any required transfers to surplus. Under these provisions, at December
31, 1993, the M&I bank subsidiaries would have been permitted to pay dividends
to M&I of approximately $109.8 million without prior regulatory approval. At
December 31, 1993, the M&I subsidiaries (both bank and non-bank) would have
been permitted to pay dividends to M&I of approximately $202 million. The
Federal and state bank regulatory agencies also have authority to prohibit
banks and bank holding companies from paying dividends which would constitute
an unsafe and unsound banking practice. The Board and the Comptroller of the
Currency have indicated that it would generally be an unsafe and unsound
banking practice for banks to pay dividends except out of current operating
earnings. Dividends paid to M&I by the M&I bank subsidiaries in 1993 totaled
$71.2 million. M&I does not expect that the restrictions referred to above
will impair M&I's ability to pay normal quarterly dividends to its
stockholders.
Commitments to Affiliated Institutions
Under Board policy, M&I is expected to act as a source of financial
strength to each of its bank subsidiaries and to commit resources to support
each bank subsidiary in circumstances when it might not do so absent such
requirements. In addition, any capital loans by M&I to any of its bank
subsidiaries would also be subordinate in right of payment to depositors and
to certain other indebtedness of such bank.
As a result of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and
Enforcement Act of 1989 ("FIRREA"), a depository institution insured by the
FDIC can be held liable for any loss incurred by the FDIC in connection with
(i) the default of a commonly controlled FDIC insured depository institution
or (ii) any assistance provided by the FDIC to a commonly controlled FDIC
insured depository institution in danger of default. "Default" is defined
generally as the appointment of a conservator or receiver and "in danger of
default" is defined generally as the existence of certain conditions indicating
that a "default" is likely to occur in the absence of regulatory assistance.
All of the M&I bank subsidiaries are FDIC insured depository institutions
within the meaning of FIRREA.
Capital Requirements
Information regarding capital requirements for bank holding companies and
tables reflecting M&I's regulatory capital position at December 31, 1993 can
be found in note 11 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
contained in Item 8 hereof.
Other Regulation of M&I and its Subsidiaries
Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act restricts the extent to which
M&I's bank subsidiaries may supply funds to M&I, or to M&I's non-bank
subsidiaries ("Affiliates") whether through direct extensions of credit, or
through purchase of securities, issuance of guaranties and the like. Unless
fully secured by obligations of or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or its
agencies, or by certain bank deposits, with certain limited exceptions, M&I
bank subsidiaries may not: (i) loan money or otherwise extend credit to; (ii)
purchase or invest in the stock of securities of; (iii) purchase the assets of;
(iv) issue a guarantee, acceptance, or letter of credit on behalf of; or (v)
accept as collateral for a loan or extension of credit the stock or securities
of, a bank holding company or its non-bank subsidiaries in an amount exceeding
10% of the capital stock and surplus of the bank in the case of any Affiliate
and in an amount exceeding 20% of the capital stock and surplus of the bank in
the case of all Affiliates in the aggregate. In addition, every such loan,
extension of credit, investment, purchase, guarantee, letter of credit or
acceptance must be secured to the extent required under the Federal Reserve Act
(at a minimum of 100%).
Section 23B of the Federal Reserve Act applies to certain transactions
by banks with affiliates that are not covered by Section 23A. Section 23B's
basic purpose is to ensure that an insured bank does not subsidize its bank
holding company or its sister nonbank subsidiaries by giving them more
advantageous terms, whether on loans, or any other contracts with the bank,
than they would be able to obtain from an unrelated party.
All of M&I's state chartered bank subsidiaries are members of and subject
to regulation and examination by the FDIC. M&I's nationally chartered bank
subsidiaries are subject to regulation and examination by the Comptroller of
the Currency, and its state chartered bank subsidiaries are subject to further
regulation and examination by the Commissioner of Banking for the State of
Wisconsin and in the case of M&I Thunderbird Bank, the Arizona State Banking
Department. In addition, subsidiary banks that are members of the System are
subject to regulation and examination by the Board. Areas of banking that are
regulated by state and federal law include reserve requirements, investments,
loans, mergers, issuances of securities, dividend payments and branch banking.
The laws of the jurisdictions in which they operate impose restrictions on many
of M&I's non-bank subsidiaries in terms of the activities in which they may
engage and the amounts of, and interest rates on, credit they provide.
Additional restrictions may be imposed by Federal or state regulatory agencies
having authority to supervise or regulate specific types of companies or
activities conducted by such subsidiaries.
Additionally, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934
Act") imposes regulatory and reporting requirements on various activities
conducted by banks, including beneficial ownership of certain securities,
dealing in municipal securities, acting as transfer agent, providing certain
types of investment management services, and in certain instances, acting as
a securities broker. M&I Bank is licensed as a municipal securities broker
under the Federal Municipal Securities Rule-Making Act. A subsidiary of M&I,
M&I Investment Management Corp., is registered with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. M&I
Brokerage Services, Inc., a subsidiary of M&I Capital Markets Group Inc., is
registered with the Commission as a broker-dealer and is regulated by the
Commission under the 1934 Act. The 1934 Act also requires certain types of
investment managers, including M&I Bank, to file reports with the Commission
with respect to the holding of certain securities. M&I Bank has also
registered with the Commission as a transfer agent and must comply with certain
record keeping and reporting requirements. Pursuant to the Government
Securities Act of 1986, M&I Bank has filed notice with the Board that it is
acting as a government securities broker-dealer.
The activities and operations of banks are subject to a number of other
federal and state laws and regulations, including state usury and consumer
credit laws, state laws relating to fiduciaries, the federal Truth-In-Lending
Act and Regulation Z promulgated thereunder, the federal Equal Credit
Opportunity Act and Regulation B, the federal Home Mortgage Disclosure Act and
Regulation C, the federal Expedited Funds Availability Act and Regulation CC,
the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act, the federal Bank Secrecy Act, the
federal Community Reinvestment Act, the federal antitrust laws, insider
transactions, changes in Bank ownership, management interlocks between
depository institutions and the disclosure of bank records.
Regulations promulgated by Federal banking regulators in 1992 pursuant
to FDICIA broadly impacted the operations of financial institutions and their
holding companies. These regulations which were intended to strengthen the
industry imposed new standards on various activities including real estate
secured lending, acceptance of brokered deposits, interbank liabilities and
loans to directors and executive officers of financial institutions and their
holding companies. Additional regulations resulting from FDICIA bar state
chartered banks from engaging as principal in any activity deemed impermissible
for a federally chartered bank and from acquiring or maintaining any equity
investment not permissible for a national bank. Furthermore, Regulation DD
implementing the Truth-in-Savings provisions of FDICIA was issued by the Board
in 1992 and became effective in June, 1993. Regulation DD requires banks to
make various new disclosures regarding deposit accounts.
Federal bank agencies have comprehensive enforcement authority over
banking institutions within their jurisdiction. Pursuant to FDICIA, these
agencies possess broad powers over undercapitalized institutions. Actions
available to the agencies include the termination of deposit insurance,
restrictions on asset growth, denying approval for acquisitions, branching or
new lines of business, requiring an institution to recapitalize, requiring
divestiture of a financial institution, issuance of temporary and permanent
cease and desist orders, imposition of civil money penalties, restrictions on
senior officers' compensation, and suspension and removal of directors and
officers and the prohibition of other persons from participating in the
management of a bank. The agencies frequently use their authority to institute
formal enforcement actions to persuade banking organizations on an informal
basis to take specified actions designed to insure compliance with applicable
laws and regulations. The federal bank agencies are broadly empowered to
define "unsafe and unsound" practices.
M&I, as the holder of stock of subsidiary banks, may be subject to
assessment to restore impaired capital of its national bank subsidiaries to the
extent provided in Section 5205 of the Revised Statutes of the United States
(12 U.S.C. 55) and of its state banks to the extent provided in Section 220.07
of the Wisconsin Statutes. At present, there is no such impairment of capital
of any M&I bank subsidiaries. Any such assessment would be applicable only to
M&I and not to any M&I shareholder.
Under Section 221.56 of the Wisconsin Statutes, M&I, as a Wisconsin
corporation that owns, holds or controls a majority of stock in a state bank
or trust company is deemed to be engaged in the banking business and subject
to supervision of the Office of the Commissioner, including the requirement
that it file reports with and be subject to examination by the Office. The
Commissioner is also empowered to issue orders to a bank holding company to
remedy any condition or policy that, in the opinion of the Commissioner,
endangers the safety of deposits in any subsidiary bank or trust company. In
the event of noncompliance with such an order, the Commissioner has power to
direct the operations of the bank or trust company and to withhold dividends
from the holding company.
The foregoing references to applicable laws, statutes, regulations and
legislation are brief summaries thereof which do not purport to be complete and
are qualified in their entirety by reference to such statutes, regulations and
legislation.
GOVERNMENT POLICIES AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS
The earnings and business of M&I and the M&I bank subsidiaries are and
will be affected by the general economic and political conditions in the United
States and abroad and by the monetary and fiscal policies of various Federal
agencies, particularly those of the Board. In addition to the functions
enumerated under "Government Supervision and Regulation," the Board regulates
the supply (and thereby the cost) of funds and bank credit and deals with
general economic conditions in the United States and internationally. From
time to time, the Board has taken specific steps to curtail domestic inflation,
to support the value of U.S. dollars in foreign currency markets and to control
the nation's money supply. Policies employed by the Board for these purposes
influence the interest rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities, the interest
received on earning assets, and the levels of bank loans, investments and
deposits.
The economic conditions in which M&I has operated have varied greatly
over recent years, ranging from extremely high to low rates of inflation,
volatile interest rates, and sharp fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar
compared to other currencies. Government and Board monetary policies have
significantly affected the operating results of commercial banks in the past
and are expected to do so in the future. The impact of fluctuating economic
conditions and federal regulatory policies on the future profitability of M&I
and its subsidiaries cannot be predicted with certainty.
The cost of funding bank assets has shifted from a reliance on fixed rate
sources of funds to funding sources which reflect market rates of interest.
This shift was commenced in 1980 pursuant to federal legislation which began
a gradual phase out of interest rate ceilings applicable to time and savings
deposits at commercial banks and thrift institutions. The only remaining
limitation on interest rates payable on transaction deposit accounts, with
certain minor exceptions and conditions, is the prohibition on the payment of
interest on demand deposits. The legislative and regulatory changes relating
to interest rate ceilings have enabled banks to compete more effectively with
other unregulated entities for deposits by offering market rates of interest,
but have increased the cost of core deposits.

Generally, a loan is placed on nonaccrual if payment of interest is more than 60
days delinquent and the loan has been determined by management to be a "problem"
loan. In addition, loans which are past due 90 days or more as to interest or
principal are also placed on non-accrual. Exceptions to these rules are
generally only for loans fully collateralized by readily marketable securities
or other relatively risk free collateral.
Information with respect to nonaccrual and restructured loans (in thousands) at
December 31, 1993, is as follows:
Gross interest income which would have been
recorded under original terms . . . . . . . $3,557
Interest income recorded during the period. . . $1,804
Potential Problem Loans
At December 31, 1993, the Corporation had $14,475 of loans for which payments
are presently current, but the borrowers are experiencing serious financial
problems. These loans are subject to constant management attention and their
classification is reviewed on a quarterly basis.
Other Interest Bearing Assets
At December 31, 1993, the Corporation's commercial finance subsidiary had $2,342
of corporate debt investment securities on nonaccrual status. The gross
interest that would have been recorded in 1993 under the original terms amounted
to $257. Interest income recorded during 1993, with respect to such debt
securities was $35.

for the year ended December 31, 1993, is the amount necessary to bring
the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 1993, to a level believed
adequate by management to absorb current estimated potential losses in
the loan portfolio. Management's determination of the adequacy of the
allowance is based on a continual review of the loan portfolio, loan loss
experience, economic conditions, growth and composition of the portfolio,
and other relevant factors. As a result of management's continual
review, the allowance is adjusted through provisions for loan losses
charged against income.
SUMMARY OF LOAN LOSS EXPERIENCE - CONTINUED
The Corporation's evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan
losses broadly consists of two levels of analysis. The first level focuses
primarily on assessments of specific credits, as described more fully below.
The second more general level of analysis focuses on categories of similar
type loans and portfolio segments (e.g., commercial/individual; real
estate/non-real estate; geographical regions related to the locations of
affiliate banks). These methodologies include multiple analytical approaches
which are viewed together to assess overall reserve and provision levels. The
analyses consider, among other factors, historical loss experience, current and
anticipated economic conditions, loan portfolio trends, portfolio composition
by segment, assigned credit grades, and estimates of potential loss exposures.
The loan portfolios of the Corporation's affiliate banks and leasing
subsidiary are subject to continual management oversight and quarterly
analyses. Management's analyses are based on the Corporation's credit grading
system which classifies loans in a manner similar to that of bank regulatory
examiners, with estimates of probable and potential losses derived.
Management's assigned credit grades and quarterly portfolio analyses are
subject to independent monitoring by the Corporation's credit review group,
which also performs periodic portfolio reviews at each affiliate. The credit
review group prepares reports on the results of their evaluations of affiliate
loan portfolios, which together with quarterly analyses of credit exposure
provided by affiliate management, serve as the basis for determining the
adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.
Management utilizes the above-described reserve analysis approaches to
determine the overall adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Management's
overall assessment is based on its view of the loan portfolio as consisting of
commercial business loans, real estate loans, personal loans, and direct
financing leases. Industrial development revenue bonds are viewed as
commercial real estate loans.
During 1993, consolidated net charge-offs decreased to $1.8 million,
representing $6.8 million of charge-offs, offset by $5.0 million of recoveries.
This decrease follows the lower than normal $3.2 million of losses experienced
in 1992. The lower than normal levels experienced in 1992 and 1993 contrast
with the higher than historic levels of losses experienced in 1990 and 1991.
The $5.0 million of recoveries recognized in 1993 reflect a return to more
normal historic levels. The higher $10.4 million of recoveries recognized in
1992 were primarily due to collection of a large commercial loan charge-off
recorded in 1990. The reduction in consolidated charge-off levels in 1992 and
further reduction in 1993, reflect the relative strength of the Wisconsin
economy and stabilization in the Arizona economy and real estate values. The
Corporation's Arizona-based loan portfolio represents approximately 4% of the
total portfolio. The Corporation's 1993 provision level of $9.1 million, which
is the lowest provision level in the last five years, results in a year-end
1993 loan loss reserve of $93.2 million or 1.74% of total loans, as compared
to the year-end 1992 reserve level of 1.76%. The increased reserve levels in
1992 and 1993, reflect the Corporation's favorable net charge-off experience
and the inherent cyclical nature of economic conditions and related credit
impacts. The year-end 1993 reserve level is considered adequate given
uncertainties regarding the economic conditions in the country and the
Corporation's primary service areas.
The 1993 charge-off levels for commercial and real estate loans decreased
to their lowest level in five years and were offset by nearly equal levels of
recoveries. The minimal net charge-offs for commercial loans in 1993 reflect
the general stability of the Wisconsin and Arizona economies relative to the
less favorable conditions experienced in 1990 and 1991. The minimal net
recoveries on real estate loans in 1993, compare to net charge-off levels of
$7.1 million, $6.0 million, and $3.1 million experienced in 1990, 1991 and
1992, respectively. This trend reflects the weakness in economic conditions
and real estate values which had significantly impacted the Corporation's
Arizona-based portfolio, and resulted in the higher than historic levels of
losses experienced in 1990 and 1991. Personal loan net charge-offs decreased
further in 1993, as compared to 1992 and prior year levels, reflecting, in
part, a continued de-emphasis on certain consumer oriented products which had
resulted in higher loss levels in 1989 and 1990, and the impact of overall
economic conditions. In 1993, the Corporation's lease financing portfolio net
charge-offs decreased to the lowest level since 1989 reflecting the favorable
impact of economic conditions on this portfolio segment which has experienced
growth in recent years.
Disregarding the undetermined impacts of the pending Valley
Bancorporation acquisition, the existing Corporation's charge-off and provision
levels for 1994 are expected to continue to be largely dependent on economic
conditions in the Corporation's primary service areas. While Wisconsin's
economy continues to be relatively stable and the Arizona and national
economies reflect some continued strengthening, should the country's economic
conditions deteriorate, the Corporation's Wisconsin and Arizona markets may be
adversely affected. Absent deterioration in these conditions, total charge-
offs for 1994 are not currently expected to vary significantly from 1993 levels
and offsetting recoveries are currently expected to decrease from 1993 levels.
At the present time, there are no material loans which are known or believed
to be in imminent danger of deteriorating or defaulting which are currently
expected to give rise to material charge-offs; however, loss levels can be
significantly impacted by a few large loans which could deteriorate
unexpectedly or be adversely impacted by economic conditions. Based on current
conditions, commercial loan losses for 1994 are expected to remain below peak
1990 levels, with net charge-offs anticipated to more closely parallel historic
levels. Commercial real estate loans continue to be highly vulnerable to
regional economic conditions and real estate values; however, based on current
conditions, real estate loan losses for 1994 are expected to remain below the
higher than normal levels experienced in 1990 and 1991. Based on the existing
portfolio size and composition, personal loan losses for 1994 are currently
expected to increase somewhat from 1993 levels, but remain below the peak
levels experienced in 1990. At the present time, direct lease financing losses
for 1994 are expected to increase somewhat from 1993 levels, to more closely
parallel historic levels; however, actual losses could be impacted by portfolio
growth, fraud, or unanticipated weaknesses in industry segments within the
portfolio.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Position and Results
of Operations
Marshall & Ilsley Corporation reported consolidated operating earnings of
$125.5 million in 1993, an increase of $8.9 million or 7.6% from the $116.6
million reported in the same period a year ago. Fully diluted earnings per
share on the same basis was $1.76 compared to $1.62 for 1992, an increase of
8.6%. The return on average assets and average shareholders' equity was 1.62%
and 16.11%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 1993 and 1.56% and
16.16%, respectively, for 1992. Operating earnings increased $17.3 million or
17.4% in 1992 compared to 1991 while 1992 fully diluted earnings per share
increased 15.7% over the prior year.
The increase in 1993 net income was due to higher net interest income, a
lower loan loss provision and higher noninterest related revenues.
During 1992, the Corporation adopted two new accounting standards which
required the recognition of unrecorded post retirement benefits and that current
enacted tax rates be used in determining deferred tax balances. The cumulative
effect of the adoption of these accounting standards which was recognized as of
January 1, 1992, amounted to an after tax charge of $7.4 million or $.10 per
share on a fully diluted basis.
Provision for Loan Losses and Credit Quality
The provision for loan losses amounted to $9.1 million for 1993 a decrease
of $6.1 million or 40.2% when compared to $15.2 million in 1992 and $20.6
million in 1991. The decline in the 1993 provision level reflects current
favorable trends in nonperforming assets and net charge-offs in relation to the
allowance for loan losses.
Nonperforming assets at December 31, 1993 amounted to $46.4 million
compared to $55.6 million at December 31, 1992. Nonperforming loans declined
by $4.5 million while other real estate owned declined $4.7 million. The
largest contributor in the decline in nonperforming loans was nonaccrual loans
which declined $3.8 million and amounted to $27.9 million at December 31, 1993.
Each major category of nonaccrual loans declined from the prior year. Other
real estate owned declined due to the sale of properties across all major
affiliate groups.
Net charge-offs amounted to $1.8 million for the year ended December 31,
1993 compared to $3.2 million in the prior year. Loan charge-offs in 1993 were
at the lowest level reported for the past five years. Recoveries for the year
ended December 31, 1993 amounted to $5.0 million, a decline of $5.4 million from
that reported for 1992 when recoveries amounted to $10.4 million. During 1992,
a $4.4 million recovery on one large commercial loan, partially charged-off in
1990, was realized by our lead bank (M&I Marshall & Ilsley Bank).
The allowance for loan losses amounted to $93.2 million at December 31,
1993 compared to $85.9 million a year ago, an increase of $7.3 million or 8.5%.
While the allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loan coverage ratio
increased from 213% at December 31, 1992 to 261% at December 31, 1993, the
allowance for loan losses to total loans coverage ratio declined slightly to
1.74% due to the increase in loans outstanding.
Since the third quarter of 1993, nonperforming assets declined $4.8
million or 9.4%. Nonaccrual loans declined by $3.9 million while other real
estate owned declined $1.6 million. Net charge-offs for the fourth quarter of
1993 amounted to $1.2 million which were $1.0 million higher than the third
quarter of 1993.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income was $309.2 million in 1993, a slight increase from
$307.8 million earned in 1992. The benefit was a result of a modest increase
in average earning assets combined with a shift in the asset and funding mix.
Average earning assets increased $186.5 million or 2.7% in 1993 and
amounted to $7.0 billion. Short-term investments declined $160.5 million while
long-term investments increased $115.3 million and amounted to $1.78 billion.
The tax-exempt portion of our long-term investment portfolio continues to
decline as the availability of such securities diminish and therefore are
replaced with taxable investments.
Total average loans increased $231.8 million or 4.8% and amounted to $5.04
billion for the year ended December 31, 1993. Average commercial loans grew
$63.6 million or 3.6% in 1993 compared to the prior year. Average total real
estate loans amounted to $2.34 billion compared to $2.24 billion last year, an
increase of 4.6%. Of this increase, commercial real estate increased 9.3% or
$91.6 million with business real estate loans contributing $53.4 million of the
growth. Residential real estate loans grew a modest 1.0% or $12.1 million and
amounted to $1.27 billion in 1993. Personal loans amounted to $641.2 million
in 1993, an increase of 9.3% from the prior year. Student loan activity was the
largest contributor to the increase. Lease financing grew 4.4% or $9.8 million
in 1993 compared to 1992.
As discussed throughout the year, the shift in our funding mix also helped
contribute to the slight increase in net interest income. Average noninterest
bearing deposits amounted to $1.51 billion for the year ended December 31, 1993,
an increase of $143.0 million or 10.5% from that reported in 1992. Total
interest bearing deposits amounted to $4.49 billion a decline of $85.0 million
or 1.9% compared to 1992. Core interest bearing deposit accounts increased
$129.4 million for 1993 compared to the prior year. Regular savings increased
$110.0 million or 14.7% while NOW/Super NOW accounts increased $51.5 million or
7.9% in the current year when compared to 1992. Money market accounts declined
$32.1 million or 2.7%. Large dollar certificate of deposit accounts and other
certificates of deposit and time accounts decreased $28.8 million or 12.4%, and
$185.5 million or 10.5%, respectively, when comparing 1993 to the prior year.
In November 1992, the Corporation redeemed, at par, the $60 million
10 1/2% notes due in 1995. In July 1993, the Corporation issued $100 million
of 10 year 6.375% unsecured subordinated notes. The proceeds were used for
general corporate purposes which included the financing of the treasury share
repurchase program announced in April, 1993.
The net interest margin as a percent of average earning assets declined
from 4.68% for the year ended December 31, 1992 to 4.53% in the current year.
The average yield on our interest earning assets was 7.08%, a decline of 89
basis points from 1992. Loan yields declined by 73 basis points to 7.65% and
our long-term investment securities yielded 5.85%, a decline of 184 basis points
from that earned a year ago. The total cost of our interest bearing liabilities
amounted to 3.39% for 1993, a decline of 90 basis points when compared to the
prior year. The cost of our core interest bearing deposit accounts declined 79
basis points in the current year compared to 1992, while the cost of our other
time deposit accounts declined 89 basis points. Due to the above noted
realignment of our long-term borrowings, the cost associated with this funding
source declined 134 basis points and amounted to 7.63% compared to 8.97% in
1992.
While the spread between interest earning assets and interest bearing
liabilities declined by 1 basis point, the value of our noninterest bearing
deposit accounts declined by 89 basis points.
Net interest income was $307.8 million in 1992, an increase of $18.8
million or 6.5% from the $289.0 million earned in 1991. The improvement was
primarily due to an increase in the interest margin, an increase in average
earning assets and a continued favorable shift in the funding mix.
Average earning assets increased $183.4 million or 2.8% in 1992 and grew
to $6.8 billion. Total securities increased 7.3% while relatively slower loan
growth amounted to 1.2% and was exhibited across all major categories of loans.
The margin continued to benefit from a more favorable mix of funding
sources and interest rate environment trends. Noninterest bearing deposits
increased $167.0 million or 13.9% in 1992 compared to the prior year. While
total average interest bearing deposit balances remained relatively unchanged
in 1992, the changes within the individual categories of deposits helped
contribute to the margin increase. The interest margin also benefitted from the
more recent interest rate environment trends. While the yield on total average
interest earning assets declined from 9.38% in 1991 to 7.97% in 1992, a decline
of 141 basis points, the rate paid on our interest bearing liabilities declined
174 basis points. These rates resulted in a net interest margin on average
earning assets of 4.68% in 1992 compared to 4.57% in the prior year.

Other Income
Total other income amounted to $299.9 million for 1993, an increase of
$34.0 million or 12.8% from $265.9 million reported in 1992. The largest
contributor was data processing services revenue which increased $23.1 million
or 20.4% in 1993, and amounted to $136.0 million. Processing revenue and
software related revenue contributed to the increase. Certain contract
termination fees were paid by our customers who terminated their processing
agreements due to their being acquired by another entity. The amount recorded
as contract termination revenue amounted to $5.4 million in 1993 compared to
$1.1 million in 1992.
Trust services revenue increased $3.0 million or 6.6% in 1993 compared to
the prior year.
Other customer service revenue amounted to $82.4 million for 1993, an
increase of $4.3 million or 5.5%, when compared to $78.1 million earned in 1992.
Service charges on commercial demand accounts continue to increase and amounted
to $21.4 million, an increase of 9.3% or $1.8 million when compared to $19.6
million earned in 1992. Credit card fees increased $1.1 million or 12.9% in

loan fees amounted to $16.8 million for 1993 compared to $15.8 million in the
prior year. Other miscellaneous income also increased in 1993 and amounted to
$25.0 million, an increase of 19.9% or $4.1 million, when compared to $20.8
million earned in 1992. Income from the sale of 15 and 30 year mortgages
acquired and sold in the secondary market amounted to $6.7 million compared to
$3.4 million in 1992, an increase of $3.3 million.
Net securities gains from Investment Securities Available for Sale
amounted to $7.8 million in 1993 compared to $8.3 million in the prior year.
The primary sources of this activity were gains realized by the Corporation from
the sale of certain equity securities and gains realized by our Capital Markets
affiliate. Gains realized by Capital Markets were $3.3 million in 1993 and $6.7
million in 1992.
Other income amounted to $265.9 million in 1992, a $38.3 million or 16.8%
increase from $227.6 million reported in 1991. The largest contributor was data
processing fees which increased 22% in 1992 and amounted to $113.0 million.
This growth was driven by both processing and software revenue growth. Trust
services revenue increased 5.7% in 1992 compared to the prior year. Other
customer services amounted to $78.1 million in 1992 compared to $66.1 million
in 1991. Service charges on deposit accounts, primarily commercial deposit
accounts, contributed $3.6 million of the increase in 1992. Fees earned on the
origination of real estate loans amounted to $3.9 million in 1992 compared to
$2.4 million in 1991. Loan servicing income increased $1.2 million in 1992 and

amounted to $1.5 billion at December 31, 1992. Corporate finance fees increased
$1.1 million in 1992 while brokerage income increased $1.5 million in 1992
compared to the prior year.
Net securities gains amounted to $8.3 million in 1992 compared to $4.4
million in 1991. During 1992, our Capital Markets affiliate reported net gains
of $6.7 million due primarily to the sale of one of its investments, whereas a
loss of $.4 million was recognized in the prior year. The Corporation also sold
certain equity securities, carried at the lower of cost or market, and realized
a gain of $1.2 million in 1992 and $3.6 million in 1991.
Other miscellaneous income amounted to $20.8 million in 1992 compared to
$21.4 million in the prior year. Income from the sale of 15 and 30 year
mortgages acquired and sold in the secondary market amounted to $3.4 million in
1992 compared to $.4 million in the prior year. During 1991, the Corporation
accrued $5 million for recovery of losses arising out of litigation settled in
1990.
Other Expense
Other expense amounted to $403.4 million in 1993 compared to $384.1
million in 1992, an increase of $19.3 million or 5.0%. Salaries and employee
benefits expense increased $17.6 million or 8.2% in 1993 compared to the prior
year and amounted to $233.6 million. Our data processing subsidiary contributed
$16.7 million or 94.5% of the increase which was partially the result of their
number of full-time employees increasing from 1600 to 1866. The purchase of a
data center in the Southeast resulted in the addition of 144 full-time
employees.
Net occupancy expense for 1993 remained relatively unchanged from the
prior year. Equipment expense amounted to $42.5 million, an increase of 9.9%
or $3.8 million from 1992. Expanded computer capacity, more data storage
devices and other related data processing equipment all contributed to the
increase in equipment expense.
Processing expense increased 25.2% during 1993 and amounted to $13.2
million compared to $10.5 million in the prior year. Our data processing
subsidiary contributed a significant portion of this increase. The outsourcing
of certain record retention functions resulted in the increase in processing
charges by approximately $1.3 million.
Other miscellaneous expense amounted to $58.6 million, a decrease of $5.0
million or 7.8%, from $63.6 million reported in 1992. This category is affected
by the capitalization of costs, net of amortization, associated with software
development and data processing conversions. During 1993 the amount of expense
capitalized, net of amortization, exceeded the amount recorded in 1992 by
approximately $8.0 million. Of this net increase, $4.9 million related to costs
associated with conversion activity while $3.1 million related to increased
software development work.
Total other expense in 1992 increased $34.6 million or 9.9% from $349.5
million reported in the prior year. Salaries and benefits expense amounted to
$215.9 million in 1992, an increase of 15.2% from that reported in 1991. Our
data processing subsidiary contributed $12.4 million of the increase.
Contributing to this growth was an increase in the number of full time employees
at that subsidiary. This was driven primarily by the revenue growth discussed
above. During 1992, the Corporation established supplemental retirement plans
for certain key executives. The expense for these plans included $4.0 million
which was nonrecurring.
Net occupancy expense increased a modest 1.1% in 1992 as compared to 1991.
Equipment expense amounted to $38.7 million for 1992 as compared to $36.0
million in 1991. A substantial portion of this increase was due to increased
depreciation charges on equipment used by our data processing subsidiary.
Payments to regulatory agencies amounted to $14.0 million in 1992, an
increase of $1.4 million when compared to 1991. The increase was primarily due
to higher FDIC insurance costs related to increased deposits in addition to a
full year's impact of 1991 insurance rate increases. Processing charges
increased $1.3 million or 14.0% in 1992 when compared to the prior year.
Approximately 57% of the increase is due to our data processing business.
Income Tax Provision
The provision for income taxes was $71.1 million in 1993 compared to $57.8
million in 1992 and $47.1 million in 1991. The increases in the provision are
due to higher pre-tax earnings and declines in tax exempt income along with an
increase of $1.2 million in 1993 due to a change in the Federal tax rate.
Asset/Liability Management
Asset/Liability management involves the funding and investment strategies
necessary to maintain an appropriate balance between interest sensitive assets
and liabilities as well as to assure adequate liquidity. These strategies
determine the characteristics and mix of the balance sheet. They affect net
interest margins, maturity patterns, interest rate sensitivity and risk, as well
as resource allocations.
The Corporation combines the active management of the balance sheet
position over interest rate cycles with the limited use of hedging products, to
confine interest rate risk within prudent parameters. We position the balance
sheet in a manner which will match asset and liability repricing schedules to
insulate our net interest margin from cyclical swings in interest rates, while
consciously matching or mismatching discretionary asset and liability repricing
schedules to take advantage of interest rate swings over short periods of time.
Adequate funding sources are maintained through a full line of deposit and
short-term borrowing products, competitively priced to a diversified customer
base. Asset diversification provides a proper mix of variable and fixed rate
loans, while investment decisions are primarily designed to balance the overall
interest rate risk in the balance sheet. Liquidity is provided through
marketability and an appropriate schedule of maturing investments.
A portion of demand deposits are considered rate sensitive under the
following assumptions. A core amount of demand deposits is calculated at the
beginning of each year. This core number is the average of the previous six
months actual and upcoming twelve months forecasted balances. The core balance
is considered nonrate sensitive and classified as a nonrate sensitive liability
in the "1 year +" time frame. Actual demand deposit balances are compared to
the core balance monthly. The difference, positive or negative, is considered
rate sensitive and classified as a rate sensitive liability. At December 31,
1993, $314 million of demand deposits were classified as rate sensitive in the
"1-30 Days" time frame.

Capital Resources
Shareholders' equity was $750.4 million at December 31, 1993 compared to
$760.6 million at December 31, 1992. This decrease resulted from the repurchase
of treasury shares which amounted to $117.9 million in 1993. The Corporation
continues to have a strong capital base and its regulatory capital ratios are
significantly above the defined minimum regulatory ratios.
At December 31, 1993, the Corporation had a total risk-based capital ratio
of 15.49% and a 12.17% core capital to risk-based asset ratio. Selected
leverage capital ratios must also be maintained. The Corporation's leverage
ratio at December 31, 1993 was substantially in excess of the minimum 3% to 5%
guidelines.
The Corporation's subsidiaries, primarily its banking subsidiaries, are
restricted by regulations from making dividend distributions above prescribed
amounts. In addition, banking subsidiaries are limited in making loans and
advances to the Corporation. At December 31, 1993 approximately $109.8 million
and $92.3 million were available for distribution without regulatory approval
from the Corporation's banking and nonbanking subsidiaries, respectively.
Under Federal Reserve Board policy, the Corporation is expected to act as
a source of financial strength to each subsidiary bank and to commit resources
to support each subsidiary bank in circumstances when it might not do so absent
such policy.
In April, 1993 the Board of Directors authorized a common share repurchase
program for 5.7 million shares in anticipation of the conversion of its $50
million convertible note. The Corporation also reaffirmed its on-going program
to annually purchase up to 1.5 million shares to fund obligations of its stock
option and other benefit plans. During 1993 approximately 5.0 million shares
were purchased.
In July, the Corporation issued $100 million of 10 year, 6.375% unsecured
subordinated notes. The newly issued notes are considered an element of total
capital for risk-based capital purposes. The proceeds were used for general
corporate purposes and to help finance the common share repurchase program. The
Corporation also filed a shelf registration statement with the Securities and
Exchange Commission to issue up to $150 million of medium-term unsecured and
unsubordinated Series C notes which will be due from 9 months to 30 years from
the date of issue, at a fixed and floating rate.
In December, 1993 the Corporation's Board of Directors approved a proposal
to amend the Corporation's Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, in
order to, among other things, increase the authorized Common Stock of the
Corporation from 80 million shares to 160 million shares. The proposal is
contingent upon shareholder approval and is to be considered at the special
meeting of shareholders which is scheduled to be held in February, 1994.
During 1992 and 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
numerous standards which affect the accounting and reporting of investment
securities, impaired loans and postemployment benefits beginning as early as
1994. As discussed in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the
Corporation does not anticipate that the pronouncements, taken individually,
will have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Statements.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1993, 1992, and 1991 ($000's except share data)
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Consolidation principles - The Consolidated Financial Statements
include the accounts of Marshall & Ilsley Corporation (the "Corporation")
and all subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Certain amounts in the 1992
and 1991 Consolidated Financial Statements have been reclassified to conform
with the 1993 presentation.
Cash and cash equivalents - For purposes of the Consolidated Financial
Statements, the Corporation defines cash equivalents as short-term
investments which have an original maturity of three months or less and are
readily convertible into cash.
Securities - Securities, when purchased, are designated as Trading,
Investment Securities Held to Maturity, or Investment Securities Available
for Sale and remain in that category until they are sold or mature. The
specific identification method is used in determining the cost of securities
sold.
Investment Securities Held to Maturity are carried at cost, adjusted
for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Investment
Securities Available for Sale are carried at the lower of amortized cost or
market. See Note 6 for changes affecting Investment Securities Available
for Sale beginning January 1, 1994. Short-term Investments other than
Trading Securities are stated at cost, which approximates market value.
Trading Securities are carried at market value. Adjustments to the
carrying value of securities are reflected in the consolidated income
statements.
Loans - Interest on loans, other than direct financing leases, is
recognized as income based on the loan principal outstanding during the
period. Unearned income on direct financing leases is recognized over the
lease term on a basis that results in an approximate level rate of return on
the lease investment. Loans are generally placed on nonaccrual status when
they are past due 90 days as to either interest or principal. When a loan
is placed on nonaccrual status, previously accrued and uncollected interest
is charged to interest income on loans. A nonaccrual loan may be restored
to an accrual basis when interest and principal payments are brought current
and collectibility of future payments is not in doubt.
The Corporation defers and amortizes fees and certain incremental
direct costs, primarily salary and employee benefit expenses, over the
contractual term of the loan or lease as an adjustment to the yield. The
unamortized net fees and costs are reported as part of the loan balance
outstanding.
Allowance for loan losses - The allowance for loan losses is
maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb estimated
potential losses in the loan portfolio. Management's determination of the
adequacy of the allowance is based on a continual review of the loan
portfolio, loan loss experience, economic conditions, growth and composition
of the portfolio, and other relevant factors. As a result of management's
continual review, the allowance is adjusted through provisions for loan
losses charged against income.
Premises and equipment - Premises and equipment are recorded at cost
and depreciated principally on the straight-line method with annual rates
varying from 2% to 10% for buildings and 10% to 35% for equipment.
Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense and betterments are
capitalized.
Other real estate owned - Other real estate owned includes assets that
have been acquired in satisfaction of debts, accounted for as insubstance
foreclosures, or bank branch premises held for sale. Other real estate is
recorded at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated selling costs,
at the date of transfer. Valuation adjustments required at the date of
transfer for assets acquired in satisfaction of debts or accounted for as
insubstance foreclosures are charged to the allowance for loan losses,
whereas any valuation adjustments on bank branch premises are reported in
other expense. Subsequent to transfer, other real estate owned is carried
at the lower of cost or fair market value, less estimated selling costs,
based upon periodic evaluations. Rental income from properties and gains on
sales are included in other income, and property expenses, which include
carrying costs, required valuation adjustments and losses on sales, are
recorded in other expense.
Mortgage servicing - Normal fees related to the servicing of mortgage
loans are recorded as income when payments are received from mortgagors.
Gains or losses recognized on the sale of mortgage loans are adjusted to
reflect any excess or below market servicing fee generated at the time of
sale. Mortgage loans held for sale to investors are carried at the lower of
cost or market, determined on an aggregate basis, based on outstanding firm
commitments received for such loans or on current market prices.
Data processing services - Direct costs associated with the production
of computer software which will be marketed or used in data processing
operations are capitalized and amortized on the straight-line method over
the estimated economic life of the product, generally four years. Direct
costs associated with customer system conversions to the data services
operations are capitalized and amortized on the straight-line method over
the terms, generally five to seven years, of the related servicing contract.
Routine maintenance of software products, design costs and development costs
incurred prior to establishment of a product's technological feasibility are
expensed as incurred. Net unamortized capitalized costs were $16,979 at
December 31, 1993, and $11,189 at December 31, 1992. Amortization expense
was $4,668, $5,161, and $6,059, for 1993, 1992, and 1991, respectively.
Intangibles - Unamortized intangibles resulting from acquisitions,
primarily goodwill, core deposit premiums and purchased mortgage servicing
rights were $23,636 at December 31, 1993, and $22,059 at December 31, 1992.
Purchased mortgage servicing rights are amortized primarily over the periods
during which the corresponding servicing revenues are anticipated to be
generated. Adjustments for portfolio runoff in excess of that originally
anticipated are made in the period when the excess runoff appears permanent.
The other intangibles are amortized principally on the straight-line method
over periods ranging from 6 to 20 years. Amortization expense was $3,698,
$3,660, and $4,040, for 1993, 1992, and 1991, respectively.
Foreign exchange contracts - The Corporation enters into foreign
exchange contracts primarily to enable customers involved in international
trade to hedge their exposure to foreign currency fluctuations. These
contracts are carried at market value, with realized and unrealized gains
and losses included in other income.
Stock split - Common stock per share and average share information for
years 1992 and prior have been retroactively restated for the 3 for 1 stock
split effected in the form of a 200% stock dividend which was distributed to
shareholders in May 1993.
Net income per share - Primary net income per share is computed using
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus common
equivalent shares issuable upon the assumed conversion of the preferred
stock outstanding and shares issuable under outstanding stock option plans.
The average number of common and common equivalent shares used in computing
primary net income per share was 67,046,820 in 1993, 67,522,944 in 1992, and
66,162,405 in 1991.
Fully diluted net income per share also includes dilution resulting
from the assumed conversion of the convertible notes. The average number of
shares used in the computation of fully diluted net income per share was
72,957,677 in 1993, 73,673,022 in 1992, and 72,961,527 in 1991.
2. Business Combination
In September 1993, the Corporation entered into an Agreement and Plan
of Merger ("Merger Agreement") whereby Valley Bancorporation ("Valley"), a
Wisconsin bank holding company located in Appleton, Wisconsin, with
consolidated assets of approximately $4.6 billion, will merge with and into
the Corporation ("the Merger"). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement,
each share of Valley common stock will be converted into the right to
receive 1.72 shares of the Corporation's common stock in a tax-free
reorganization which is to be accounted for as a pooling of interests.
The following unaudited pro forma data combines the results of
operations for the Corporation and Valley, giving effect to the Merger as if
it had been consummated at December 31, 1993.
1993 1992 1991

Net Interest Income $484,588 $474,345 $430,573
Income Before Cumulative Effects of Changes in

Operating Income 1.60 1.48 1.27
Net Income 1.60 1.40 1.27
The Merger Agreement is to be approved by the shareholders of the
Corporation and Valley at their respective special shareholders' meetings
which are scheduled for February 1994.
The Merger is also subject to the approval of certain regulatory
authorities. Certain divestitures by the Corporation and Valley will be
required in order to obtain regulatory approvals. The Corporation has filed
applications with such authorities proposing the divestiture of certain bank
branches in the State of Wisconsin with total deposits of approximately $300
million. It is anticipated that Federal Regulators will require the
Corporation to obtain commitments for the divestitures prior to consummation
of the merger and complete the divestitures within six months of the
consummation of the merger. The Corporation does not anticipate that such
divestitures will have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial
Statements. Consummation of the Merger is expected to occur in the second
quarter of 1994.
The Corporation estimates that employee severance and contract costs,
write-downs and write-offs of duplicative facilities, equipment and data
processing software associated with the Merger will result in a one-time
restructuring charge of approximately $80 million, $48 million net of tax,
in 1994. Also, an additional loan loss provision may be recorded at or near
the consummation of the Merger to conform Valley's loan valuation policies
with those of the Corporation. While the amounts have not been quantified,
it is not anticipated that the amount of such provision will be material to
the combined entity.
3. Changes in Method of Accounting
During 1992, the Corporation adopted Financial Accounting Standard No.
106 "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits, Other than Pensions"
(FAS 106). This standard, which applies to the Corporation's employee
health plans, requires that the expected cost of these postretirement
benefits be charged to expense in the years the employees render the
services necessary to earn their benefits. The Corporation elected
immediate recognition of the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation
at January 1, 1992.
The Corporation also adopted during 1992, Financial Accounting Standard
No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes." Statement 109 requires a change from
the deferred method of accounting for income taxes to an asset and liability
method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax
rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those
temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under
Statement 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change
in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the
enactment date. The cumulative effect of the change in accounting for
income taxes at January 1, 1992, amounted to a $4.8 million reduction of
beginning net deferred tax liabilities.
The following table summarizes the January 1, 1992 effects of these
changes in methods of accounting:
Earnings Per Share
Net Income Increase (Decrease)
Increase (Decrease) Primary Fully Diluted

4. Cash and Due from Banks
At December 31, 1993, $136,985 of cash and due from banks was
restricted, primarily due to requirements of the Federal Reserve System to
maintain certain reserve balances.
5. Other Short-term Investments

Securitized assets are included in the maturity table at contractual
estimated liquidation dates and not at the scheduled maturity dates of the
underlying collateral.
The gross realized gains and losses amounted to $7,897 and $60 in 1993
and $13,781 and $5,438 in 1992, and $6,013 and $1,632 in 1991, respectively.
At December 31, 1993, securities with a book value of approximately
$260,111 were pledged to secure public deposits, short-term borrowings, and
for other purposes required by law.
In May 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities," (FAS 115). FAS 115 requires,
among other things, that securities classified as available for sale be
carried at fair value, however, fair value adjustments and the related
income tax effects, are excluded from earnings and reported separately as a
component of shareholders' equity. This new standard which must be adopted
by the Corporation on January 1, 1994 will not have a material impact on the
Consolidated Financial Statements.
7. Loans
Loans at December 31 were:
1993 1992
__________ __________
Commercial, financial, and agricultural $1,861,757 $1,717,874
Industrial development revenue bonds 27,821 37,878
Real estate:
Construction 214,369 158,607

Lease financing 239,561 229,155
__________ __________
Total loans $5,371,085 $4,878,724
The Corporation's lending activities are concentrated primarily in the
Midwest with approximately 86% of its customers located in Wisconsin.
Approximately 4% of its portfolio consists of loans granted to customers
located in Arizona. The Corporation had $3,029 in foreign credits at
December 31, 1993. The Corporation's loan portfolio consists of business
loans extending across many industry types, as well as loans to individuals.
As of December 31, 1993, total loans to any group of customers engaged in
similar activities and having similar economic characteristics, as defined
by standard industrial classifications, did not exceed 10% of total loans.
The Corporation evaluates the credit risk of each customer on an
individual basis and, where deemed appropriate, collateral is obtained.
Collateral varies by individual loan customer but may include accounts
receivable, inventory, real estate, equipment, deposits, personal and
government guaranties, and general security agreements. Access to
collateral is dependent upon the type of collateral obtained. On an on-
going basis, the Corporation monitors its collateral and the collateral
value related to the loan balance outstanding.
An analysis of loans outstanding to directors and officers, including
their related interests, of the Corporation and its significant subsidiaries
for 1993 is presented below. All of these loans were made in the ordinary
course of business with normal credit terms, including interest rates and
collateral. The beginning balance has been adjusted to reflect the activity
of newly-appointed directors and executive officers and directors and
executive officers of subsidiaries previously not considered significant.
Balance, beginning of year $ 79,302
New loans 101,904
Repayments (110,863)
__________
Balance, end of year $ 70,343
At December 31, 1993, 85% of these loans were to companies in which
directors are principal owners.
An analysis of the allowance for loan losses follows:
1993 1992 1991
________ ________ ________
Balance, beginning of year $ 85,884 $ 73,915 $ 68,723
Provision charged to expense 9,065 15,151 20,555
Charge-offs (6,786) (13,592) (21,233)
Recoveries 5,026 10,410 5,870
________ ________ ________
Balance, end of year $ 93,189 $ 85,884 $ 73,915
As of December 31, 1993, and 1992, nonaccrual loans totalled $27,880
and $31,630, respectively. The effect of nonaccrual loans on net income in
1993, 1992, and 1991, was not significant.
In May 1993, the FASB also issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," (FAS
114). FAS 114 requires that a loan's value be measured when it has been
determined that the loan is impaired and loss is probable. Write-downs
which result from the measurement process are to be expensed. This new
standard must be adopted by the first quarter of 1995. Based upon the
current status of the Corporation's loan portfolio, it is not anticipated
that this pronouncement will have a material impact on the Consolidated
Financial Statements.
8. Premises and Equipment
The composition of premises and equipment at December 31 was:
1993 1992
_________ _________
Land $ 24,713 $ 24,359

The Corporation leases certain of its facilities and equipment. Rent
expense under such operating leases was $15,206 in 1993, $15,071 in 1992,
and $15,244 in 1991, respectively. The future minimum lease payments under
operating leases that have initial or remaining noncancellable lease terms

Less current maturities 40,148 42,730
_________ _________
Total long-term borrowings $202,817 $130,201
The 8.5% convertible subordinated notes (the "Notes") require semi-
annual interest payments and are convertible at the option of the holder
into common stock at a conversion price of $8.75. The holder has the right
to exchange common stock, acquired by conversion of the Notes or otherwise,
for Series A convertible preferred stock ("Series A"). The holder may own
up to 24.9% (computed as the percentage of common shares owned directly or
indirectly through conversion privileges) of the Corporation's outstanding
common stock and convertible securities, but may not own directly more than
5% of the Corporation's outstanding common stock. Except under limited
circumstances, the holder may not sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of the
Notes or common stock acquired by conversion, and then, only under
prescribed conditions and subject to the Corporation's right of first
refusal.
A portion of the Notes qualify as equity contract notes as defined by
the applicable guidelines of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System. The Notes require the holder to take common stock (or other equity
securities) in lieu of cash in satisfaction of the claim for principal
repayment, unless the Corporation sells new common stock (or certain other
equity securities) and dedicates the proceeds thereof to the redemption or
retirement of the Notes.
In July 1993, the Corporation issued $100 million of unsecured
subordinated notes at a price of 99.351%. Interest is payable semiannually
in January and July of each year and the notes mature July 15, 2003. The
notes are not redeemable prior to maturity and qualify as "Tier 2" or
supplementary capital for regulatory capital purposes.
The Corporation has filed registration statements with the Securities
and Exchange Commission to issue up to $100 million of medium-term unsecured
and unsubordinated Series B and up to $150 million of medium-term unsecured
and unsubordinated Series C notes. Both issues have maturities which range
from 9 months to 30 years from the date of issue, at a fixed or floating
rate.
The Series B notes outstanding at December 31, 1993 mature in 1994
through 1996, and have fixed interest rates of 4.60% to 8.65%.
Approximately $35,730 of unissued Series B notes are remaining and available
to be issued in the future. At December 31, 1993, there were no Series C
notes outstanding.
The nonrecourse notes are reported net of prepaid interest and
represent borrowings by the leasing subsidiary from banks and other
financial institutions. These notes have a weighted average interest rate
of 7.77% at December 31, 1993, and are due in installments over varying
periods through 2001. Lease financing receivables at least equal to the
amount of the notes are pledged as collateral.
The mortgages are secured by land and buildings with a net book value
of $8,732 at December 31, 1993.
Scheduled maturities of long-term borrowings are: $35,254, $19,150,
$43,578, and $751 for 1995 through 1998, respectively.
11. Shareholders' Equity
The Corporation has 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized, of
which the Board of Directors has designated 500,000 shares as Series A
convertible, with a $100 value per share for conversion purposes. Series A
is nonvoting preferred stock. The same cash dividends will be paid on
Series A as would have been paid on the common stock exchanged for Series A.
Series A has the same restrictions on sale as are applicable to the 8.5%
convertible subordinated notes.
The holder of the convertible subordinated notes has the option through
1997 to exchange common stock of the Corporation for Series A. If the
common stock is acquired by the holder in conversion of the Notes, the
exchange ratio is one share of Series A for 11.43 shares of common stock.
If acquired otherwise, the exchange ratio is one share of Series A, valued
at $100, to the holder's weighted average purchase price per common share.
Also, the holder has the option to convert Series A into common stock at the
same ratio that the common stock was exchanged for Series A. The
Corporation has issued 185,314 shares of its Series A convertible preferred
stock in exchange for 1,962,900 shares of common stock, which were
subsequently retired.
The preferred stock is treated as a common stock equivalent in all per
share calculations.
In April 1993, the Corporation's Board of Directors authorized a common
share repurchase program for 5.7 million shares in anticipation of the
conversion of its 8.5% convertible subordinated notes and reaffirmed the
Corporation's on-going program for the repurchase of up to 1.5 million
shares annually to fund obligations to deliver or have available shares of
common stock for stock option and other employee benefit plans. During
1993, the Corporation purchased 5.0 million common shares.
Federal banking regulatory agencies have established capital adequacy
rules which take into account risk attributable to balance sheet assets and
off-balance sheet activities. All banks and bank holding companies must
meet a minimum total risk-based capital ratio of 8%. Of the 8% required,
half must be comprised of core capital elements defined as Tier 1 capital.
The federal banking agencies also have adopted leverage capital guidelines
which banking organizations must meet. Under these guidelines, the most
highly rated banking organizations must meet a minimum leverage ratio of at
least 3% Tier 1 capital to total assets, while lower rated banking
organizations must maintain a ratio of at least 4% to 5%.
The Corporation's risk-based capital and leverage ratios are as follows:
RISK-BASED CAPITAL RATIOS
As of December 31, 1993
($ in millions)
Amount Ratio

All of the Corporation's banking subsidiaries' risk-based capital and
leverage ratios meet or exceed the defined minimum requirements.
Banking subsidiaries are restricted by banking regulations from making
dividend distributions above prescribed amounts and are limited in making
loans and advances to the Corporation. At December 31, 1993, the retained
earnings of subsidiaries available for distribution as dividends without
regulatory approval was approximately $202,072.
12. Income Taxes
Total income tax expense for the years ended December 31, 1993 and 1992
was allocated as follows:
1993 1992
_________ _________
Income before Cumulative Changes in Accounting $71,072 $57,835

_________ _________
$66,194 $43,485
As discussed in Note 3, the Corporation adopted Financial Accounting
Standard No. 109 in 1992. This change had no significant effect on net
income, excluding the cumulative effect, in 1992. Financial statements for
1991 have not been restated to apply the new standard.
The current and deferred portions of the provision for income taxes
were:

The amount of income tax expense related to net securities gains
amounted to $2,929, $3,381, and $1,330, in 1993, 1992, and 1991,
respectively.
13. Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plans
The Corporation has Executive Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plans
which provide for the grant of nonqualified and incentive stock options,
stock appreciation rights and rights to purchase restricted shares to key
employees at prices ranging from not less than the par value of the common
shares to the fair market value of the shares at the date of grant.
Activity relating to common stock options, restated for the 3 for 1
stock split, was:

Shares under option at December 31, 1993 4,856,882 $ 4.47 - 23.25
Options exercisable at December 31, 1993, and 1992, were 4,004,095 and
4,365,666, respectively. Shares reserved for the granting of additional
options at December 31, 1993, were 3,039,305.
There were no restricted stock purchase rights outstanding at December
31, 1993, and 1992. In addition, there were no stock purchase rights
exercised during 1993 and 85,500 rights exercised in 1992.
Restrictions on stock issued pursuant to the exercise of stock purchase
rights lapse within a seven-year period. Accordingly, the compensation
related to issuance of the rights is deferred and amortized over the vesting
period. Unamortized deferred compensation is reflected as a reduction of
shareholders' equity.
Aggregate compensation expense related to stock purchase rights was
$1,008, $1,004, and $1,129, in 1993, 1992, and 1991, respectively.
14. Employee Retirement and Health Plans
The Corporation has a defined contribution retirement plan for
substantially all employees. The plan provides for a guaranteed
contribution for eligible participants equal to 2% of compensation. At the
Corporation's option, a profit sharing amount may also be contributed and
may vary from year to year up to a maximum of 6% of eligible compensation.
Total retirement plan expense was $12,915, $11,927, and $10,591, in 1993,
1992, and 1991, respectively.
The Corporation also has supplemental retirement plans which were
established in 1992 to provide retirement benefits to certain of its key
executives. Total expense relating to these plans amounted to $2,280 in
1993 and $4,323 in 1992.
The Corporation sponsors a defined benefit health plan that provides
health care benefits to all eligible current and retired employees. The
plan is contributory, with contributions adjusted periodically such that
participants contribute approximately 40% of the cost of health care
benefits. The plan also contains other cost-sharing features such as
deductibles and coinsurance. Retiree eligibility is dependent upon age,
years of service, and participation in the health plan during active
service. The plan is not funded.
As discussed in Note 3, the Corporation adopted FAS 106, "Employers'
Accounting for Postretirement Benefits, Other than Pensions" as of January
1, 1992. The Corporation elected immediate recognition of the accumulated
postretirement benefit obligation as of the beginning of the year through a
one-time charge to earnings of $19,934 before income taxes. Postretirement
benefit costs for 1991 were recorded on the cash basis and amounted to $756.
The components of the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation
(APBO) reconciled with the amount recognized in the Corporation's
Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, were:
1993 1992
________ ________
Accumulated postretirement benefit obligation:
Retirees $ 11,244 $ 8,643
Fully eligible active plan participants 8,748 3,805
Active plan participants 16,667 9,738
________ ________
36,659 22,186
Unrecognized gain (loss) (11,265) 29
________ ________
Accrued postretirement benefit cost $ 25,394 $ 22,215
Weighted average discount
rate used in determining APBO 7.5% 8.5%
Net periodic postretirement benefit cost for the years ended December
31, 1993 and 1992 includes the following components:
1993 1992
________ ________
Service cost $ 1,382 $ 1,212
Interest on APBO 1,917 1,668
________ ________
$ 3,299 $ 2,880
For measurement purposes, the assumed health care cost trend rate was
14% and 13% in 1992 and 1993, respectively, and gradually declines to 6.5%
in the year 2021.
The health care cost trend rate assumption has a significant effect on
the amounts reported. An increase in the assumed health care cost trend
rate of one percentage point would increase the APBO at December 31, 1993 by
$4,128 and increase 1993 postretirement benefit expense by $680.
In November 1992, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard No. 112 "Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits," (FAS
112). FAS 112 establishes accounting and reporting standards for employers
who provide benefits to former or inactive employees after employment but
before retirement and must be adopted in the first quarter of 1994. Based
on the current types of postemployment benefits provided by the Corporation,
it is not anticipated that this new standard will have a material impact on
the Consolidated Financial Statements.
15. Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk
Financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk at December 31 were:
1993 1992
__________ __________
Financial instruments whose amounts represent credit risk:
Commitments to extend credit:
To commercial customers $2,500,465 $2,059,126
To individuals 421,504 331,920
Standby letters of credit, net of participations 226,001 199,944
Commercial letters of credit 16,434 14,350
Mortgage loans sold with recourse 8,408 12,695
Financial instruments whose amounts
exceed the amount of credit risk:
Foreign exchange contracts:
Commitments to purchase foreign exchange 229,061 152,544
Commitments to deliver foreign exchange 231,925 154,287
Options written 24,251 20,263
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as
long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract.
Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates and may require payment of
a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being
drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future
cash requirements.
The Corporation evaluates each customer's credit worthiness on an
individual basis. Collateral obtained, if any, upon extension of credit, is
based upon management's credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral
requirements and the ability to access collateral is generally similar to
that required on loans outstanding as discussed in Note 7.
Standby and commercial letters of credit are contingent commitments
issued by the Corporation to support the financial obligations of a customer
to a third party. Standby letters of credit are issued to support public
and private financing, and other financial or performance obligations of
customers. Commercial letters of credit are issued to support payment
obligations of a customer as buyer in a commercial contract for the purchase
of goods. Letters of credit have maturities which generally reflect the
maturities of the underlying obligations. The credit risk involved in
issuing letters of credit is the same as that involved in extending loans to
customers. If deemed necessary, the Corporation holds various forms of
collateral to support letters of credit.
Mortgage loans sold with recourse are pools of residential mortgage loans
sold to government agencies subject to certain underwriting requirements.
If the loans do not meet the underwriting requirements of the government
agencies, the Corporation may be required to reacquire the loans.
Foreign exchange contracts are commitments to purchase or deliver
foreign currency at a specified exchange rate. These contracts are entered
into to hedge the Corporation's own exposure, and to enable customers
involved in international trade to hedge their exposure, to foreign currency
fluctuations. Generally, the Corporation does not require collateral to
support these financial instruments.
The Corporation's market risk from unfavorable movements in currency
exchange rates is minimized by essentially matching commitments to deliver
foreign exchange with commitments to purchase foreign exchange.
16. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The book values and estimated fair values for on and off-balance sheet
financial instruments as of December 31, 1993 and 1992 are reflected below.
BALANCE SHEET FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS ($ In Millions)
1993 1992
______________________ ______________________

Short-term borrowings 593.5 593.5 507.6 507.6
Long-term borrowings:
Convertible debt 50.0 135.0 50.7 124.8
Other long-term borrowings 193.0 198.4 122.2 128.6
Interest payable 19.3 19.3 18.4 18.4
Where readily available, quoted market prices were utilized by the
Corporation. If quoted market prices were not available, fair values were
based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. These
techniques were significantly affected by the assumptions used, including
the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. The calculated fair
value estimates, therefore, cannot be substantiated by comparison to
independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate
settlement of the instrument. Statement 107 excludes certain financial
instruments and all nonfinancial assets and liabilities from its disclosure
requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do
not represent the underlying value of the Corporation.
The following methods and assumptions were used in estimating the fair
value for financial instruments.
Cash and Short-term Investments
The carrying amounts reported for cash and short-term investments
approximates the fair values for those assets.
Trading and Investment Securities
Fair value is based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes. See Note
6, Securities, for additional information.
Loans
Loans that reprice or mature within three months of December 31 were
assigned fair values based on their book value. Market values were used on
performing loans where available. Most remaining loan balances were
assigned fair values based on a discounted cash flow analysis. The discount
rate was based on the treasury yield curve, with rate adjustments for credit
quality, cost and profit factors.
Deposits
The fair value for demand deposits or any interest bearing deposits
with no fixed maturity date was considered to be equal to the carrying
value. Time deposits with defined maturity dates were considered to have a
fair value equal to the book value if the maturity date was within three
months of December 31. The remaining time deposits were assigned fair
values based on a discounted cash flow analysis using discount rates which
approximate interest rates currently being offered on time deposits with
comparable maturities.
Borrowings
Short-term borrowings are carried at cost which approximates fair
value. The Corporation has convertible debt (see Note 10) for which fair
value was considered to be the current market value of the shares that would
be issued in a full conversion. Other long-term debt was generally valued
using a discounted cash flow analysis with a discount rate based on current
incremental borrowing rates for similar types of arrangements or, if not
readily available, based on a build up approach similar to that used for
loans and deposits. Long-term borrowings include their related current
maturities.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS ($ in millions)
Fair values of Loan Commitments and Letters of Credit have been
estimated based on the equivalent fees, net of expenses, that would be
charged for similar contracts and customers at December 31.
1993 1992

Loan commitments $ 1.4 $ 1.4
Letters of credit 1.8 1.6
Foreign exchange contracts are carried at market value (U.S. dollar
equivalent of the underlying contract).

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Marshall & Ilsley
Corporation:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
Marshall & Ilsley Corporation (a Wisconsin corporation) and subsidiaries as
of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the related consolidated statements of
income, shareholders' equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31,
1993, 1992 and 1991. These consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Corporation's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining,
on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Marshall
& Ilsley Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and
the results of their operations and cash flows for the years ended December
31, 1993, 1992 and 1991, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
As discussed in note three to the consolidated financial statements,
effective January 1, 1992, the Corporation changed its method of accounting
for postretirement benefits other than pensions and income taxes.

NONQUALIFIED RETIREMENT PLAN
M&I adopted the Marshall & Ilsley Corporation Nonqualified Retirement
Benefit Plan (the "Nonqualified Plan") on December 12, 1991. The goal of the
Nonqualified Plan is to provide six of the executive officers of M&I with a
monthly supplemental retirement benefit such that the sum of their benefits
from the Retirement Growth Plan, Social Security, the Supplementary Retirement
Benefits Plan and the Nonqualified Plan will equal 60% of each participant's
average salary for his last five years of employment. The monthly benefit
under the Nonqualified Plan, starting in most instances when an individual
reaches age 65, is fixed based on various actuarial and interest rate
assumptions. The annual benefits are $160,000, $180,000, $100,000 and $100,000
for Messrs. Wigdale, Kuester, Revane and Gunnlaugsson, respectively, and a
total of $45,000 for two other executive officers. The annual benefit
will be adjusted in the event of death before age 62 or early retirement and
can be paid for life with a 120-month certain payout or on a joint and survivor
basis at the option of the participant. The pay-out option elected will also
affect the amount of the annual benefit. If a participant leaves the employ
of the Company prior to age 55, he will receive no benefits under the
Nonqualified Plan, except that, in the event of a Change in Control (as defined
in the Nonqualified Plan), each participant will receive the present value of
the benefits to which he is entitled under the Nonqualified Plan within 30 days
of such Change in Control regardless of his age at that point.
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS AND RELATED MATTERS
In order to assure management continuity and stability, M&I has entered
into substantially similar Employment Agreements (the "Employment Agreements")
with Messrs. Wigdale, Kuester, Delgadillo, and Gunnlaugsson, two additional
executive officers and 13 officers and other employees of the Company and its
subsidiaries (collectively, the "Executives"). The Employment Agreements with
Messrs. Wigdale, Kuester and Gunnlaugsson each have a term of three years, and
the Employment Agreement with Mr. Delgadillo has a term of two years. The
Employment Agreements with the other Executives have terms of two or three
years.
The Employment Agreements guarantee the Executives specific payments and
benefits upon a termination of employment as a result of a change of control
of M&I. If a change of control occurs the contract becomes effective and
continues for a two- or three-year employment term. The employment term renews
on a daily basis until M&I gives notice to terminate the daily renewal.
The Employment Agreements provide for specified benefits after a change
of control if the Executive voluntarily terminates for "good reason" or is
involuntarily terminated other than for "cause" (as defined in the Employment
Agreements). In addition, in the case of some Employment Agreements, at the
end of six months after a change of control, the Executive may terminate
employment for any reason and is entitled to receive full benefits. Upon a
termination, the Executive is entitled to (a) a lump sum payment equal to two
or three times (depending on whether the contract is a two- or three-year
contract) the sum of the Executive's current base salary plus the higher of the
Executive's bonus for the last year or the Executive's average bonus for the
past three years, (b) a proportionate amount of any unpaid bonus deemed earned
for the year of termination, (c) a lump sum payment equal to the retirement
benefits lost as a result of not having been employed for the remaining
contract term, (d) health and other benefits for the remaining contract term,
and (e) payments for certain other fringe benefits. In the event of a
termination of employment as a result of his death, the Executive's beneficiary
is entitled to six months of base salary. No additional benefits are
guaranteed under the contract upon an Executive's disability or termination by
M&I for cause.
The Employment Agreements provide that upon a change of control most
restrictions limiting the exercise, transferability or other incidents of
ownership of any outstanding award, restricted stock, options, stock
appreciation rights, or other property rights of M&I granted to the Executive
shall lapse, and such awards shall become fully vested, except in certain
circumstances. Some of the Employment Agreements also provide for "gross-up"
payments in the event payments to an Executive under the Employment Agreement
are subject to Section 4999 of the Code (the "Excise Tax") or any similar
federal, state or local tax which may be imposed, in an amount such that the
net amount retained by the Executive, after deduction of any Excise Tax on the
payments and any federal, state and local income tax and Excise Tax upon the
gross-up payment, shall be equal to the payments then due.
In connection with Mr. Revane's retirement in November 1993, he entered
into an Agreement with M&I ("Retirement Agreement") and a Consulting and
Noncompetition Agreement with M&I ("Consulting Agreement"). Pursuant to the
Retirement Agreement (1) M&I determined that Mr. Revane's retirement
constituted "early retirement" for purposes of applicable benefit plans and,
accordingly, all options to acquire M&I Common Stock held by Mr. Revane vested
to the extent not already vested and all restrictions applicable to Mr.
Revane's Key Restricted Stock lapsed, (2) Mr. Revane will receive 36 monthly
payments of $10,278 commencing on January 1, 1996, provided that if Mr. Revane
dies prior to December 1, 1998, his estate or designated beneficiary shall
receive in lieu of such monthly payments either a lump sum or monthly payment,
depending upon the date of death, and (3) Mr. Revane is allowed to participate
in M&I's Non-Qualified Retirement Benefit Plan and split-dollar life insurance
arrangement while he is engaged as a consultant to M&I. Under the Consulting
Agreement, Mr. Revane provides various consulting and advisory services to M&I
and is prohibited from participating in certain competing activities. The
Consulting Agreement has a term of 25 months and provides for a payment to Mr.
Revane, or his estate in the case of his death, of $32,000 per month in
exchange for his consulting services and agreement not to compete.
NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
Directors of M&I who are not employees are paid a retainer fee of $12,000
per year. In addition, non-employee directors receive a fee of $1,500 for each
Board meeting which they attend and $500 for each Committee meeting which they
attend. M&I has established a deferred compensation plan for its Directors.
Under such plan, all or part of the fees received by a Director may be deferred
at the election of the Director. Amounts deferred are credited with an
earnings factor based on the Director's allocation among 13-week U.S. Treasury
Bills, the Common Stock or any common trust fund offered by the Trust Company.
Deferred amounts are payable in not less than 36 nor more than 180 monthly
installments, as elected by the participating Director, unless the Board elects
to distribute amounts over a shorter period. One Director, Mr. Chait, elected
to defer compensation under the plan during 1993. Directors of M&I who are
also Directors of subsidiaries of M&I receive compensation from such
subsidiaries in varying amounts based on the Director compensation schedule of
such subsidiaries.
Mr. Puelicher receives various supplemental retirement benefits from M&I
which are not related to or conditioned upon his service as a director of M&I.
In 1993, M&I determined to increase Mr. Puelicher's supplemental retirement
benefit under his Supplemental Retirement Plan dated December 10, 1992 from
$41,667 per month to $58,333 per month. In addition, M&I made a special
payment of $200,000 to Mr. Puelicher in December 1993 in recognition of Mr.
Puelicher's extraordinary contributions to M&I.
Mr. Puelicher and M&I entered into a Consulting Agreement and Supplemental
Retirement Plan in 1986, which was amended in 1992 (the "Consulting/Retirement
Agreement"). The Consulting/Retirement Agreement went into effect in January
1993 and provides for Mr. Puelicher to serve as a consultant to M&I for five
years. As compensation for his commitment to provide consulting services, Mr.
Puelicher receives a retirement benefit of $25,000 per month for his life, and,
if Mr. Puelicher predeceases his wife, his wife will receive $12,500 per month
for her life. In addition, M&I pays an annual insurance premium for Mr.
Puelicher of $112,470 until the earlier of (i) Mr. Puelicher's death, (ii) 19
years from the date of the policy's issue, or (iii) such time as the policy is
paid up. M&I will also reimburse Mr. Puelicher for all travel and other
expenses incurred in the performance of his duties and will provide him with
secretarial services and office space. Mr. Puelicher will continue to
participate in M&I's group health insurance (or equivalent plan) while
receiving retirement benefits under the Consulting/Retirement Agreement. M&I
may terminate the Consulting/Retirement Agreement for "cause" (as defined in
the Consulting/Retirement Agreement). The Consulting/Retirement Agreement
provides that Mr. Puelicher may not compete with M&I and must maintain the
confidentiality of certain information regarding M&I, its business and
customers.

(1) Except as indicated below, all shares shown in the table are owned with
sole voting and investment power.
(2) This information is based on Amendment No. 7 to Form 13-G dated February
7, 1991. Of the shares held, 5,714,286 shares of Common Stock may be
acquired upon conversion of the Company's 8.5% Convertible Subordinated
Notes Due 1997 (the "Notes") held by The Northwestern Mutual Life
Insurance Company ("NML"). NML also holds 988,188 shares of Common Stock
and 185,314 shares of Preferred Stock. NML has sole voting and investment
power as to all such shares, subject to the terms and conditions of a
certain Investment Agreement (the "Investment Agreement") between the
Company and NML dated August 30, 1985. NML may exchange shares of Common
Stock, regardless of how they were acquired, for shares of Preferred
Stock. The Preferred Stock is non-voting and convertible into 1,962,900
shares of Common Stock at the same ratio that the Common Stock was
exchanged for the Preferred Stock. The Investment Agreement provides for
the purchase by NML of up to 24.9%, on a fully diluted basis, of the
Common Stock. Purchases may take the form of Common Stock, Preferred
Stock, notes or other securities of the Company (together with the Notes,
the "Securities") at such prices as may be agreed upon by the parties from
time to time. Pursuant to the Investment Agreement, on December 31, 1985,
NML purchased $50 million in principal amount of the Notes. The Notes are
convertible into 5,714,286 shares of the Common Stock (which would be
approximately 8.6% of the Company's outstanding pro forma Common Stock as
of February 28, 1994) at a conversion price of $8.75 per share. The Notes
are callable by the Company upon payment of prescribed premiums through
1995 and at par thereafter. The Investment Agreement restricts in certain
respects NML's right to transfer, acquire and vote any Securities. Under
certain conditions, NML may require the Company to repurchase its stock
at not less than prescribed prices after a "Change-in-Control" or upon the
occurrence of a "Business Combination" (as such terms are defined in the
Investment Agreement).
