                          Notes to Financial Statements
                         June 30, 2004 & 2003 (Unaudited)

  1.  The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should
      be read in conjunction with Marshall & Ilsley Corporation's ("M&I"
      or "Corporation") 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  The unaudited
      financial information included in this report reflects all
      adjustments consisting only of normal recurring accruals and
      adjustments which are necessary for a fair statement of the
      financial position and results of operations as of and for the three
      and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003.  The results of
      operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003
      are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the
      entire year.  Certain amounts in the 2003 consolidated financial
      statements and analyses have been reclassified to conform with the
      2004 presentation.

  2.  New Accounting Pronouncement

      On March 31, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
      ratified the consensuses reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force
      ("EITF") in EITF Issue No. 03-1, "The Meaning of Other-Than-
      Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments"
      ("Issue 03-1").  Issue 03-1 provides guidance that should be used to
      determine when an investment is considered impaired, whether that
      impairment is other than temporary, and the measurement of an
      impairment loss.  The guidance also includes accounting
      considerations subsequent to recognition of an other-than-temporary
      impairment and requires certain disclosures about unrealized losses
      that have not been recognized as other-than-temporary impairments.

      For equity securities (including cost method investments) and debt
      securities that can be contractually prepaid or otherwise settled in
      such a way that the investor would not recover substantially all of
      its cost, an impairment should be deemed other than temporary unless
      (a) the investor has the ability and intent to hold an investment
      for a reasonable period of time sufficient for a forecasted recovery
      of fair value up to the cost of the investment, and (b) evidence
      indicating the cost of the investment is recoverable within a
      reasonable period of time outweighs evidence to the contrary.

      For debt securities that can not be contractually prepaid or
      otherwise settled in such a way that the investor would not recover
      substantially all of its cost, an impairment should be deemed other
      than temporary if (a) the investor does not have the ability and
      intent to hold an investment until a forecasted recovery of fair
      value up to the cost of the investment, which in certain cases may
      mean until maturity, or (b) it is probable that the investor will be
      unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms
      of the debt security.

      Although not presumptive, a pattern of selling investments prior to
      the forecasted recovery of fair value may call into question the
      investors' intent.

      The guidance for evaluating whether an investment is other-than-
      temporarily impaired should be applied to other-than-temporary
      impairment evaluations made in reporting periods beginning after
      June 15, 2004.  The disclosures were effective in annual financial
      statements for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2003, for
      investments accounted for under FASB Statements 115 and 124.

      As shown in Note 6 in Notes to Financial Statements, at June 30,
      2004 the Corporation had gross unrealized losses associated with its
      investment securities portfolios of $67.4 million.  Of that amount,
      $60.8 million has been in a continuous unrealized loss position for
      less than twelve months.  The Corporation believes that the
      unrealized losses are the result of increases in market interest
      rates and it is probable that the Corporation will collect all
      amounts due according to the contractual terms of the investment
      securities.  The Corporation currently expects that it will be able
      to appropriately demonstrate the requisite ability and intent to
      hold the investments through a forecasted recovery of fair value up
      to the cost of the investments, which in certain cases may mean
      until maturity.

      Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (SFAS 123),
      "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," establishes financial
      accounting and reporting standards for stock based employee
      compensation plans.

      SFAS 123 defines a fair value based method of accounting for
      employee stock options or similar equity instruments.  Under the
      fair value based method, compensation cost is measured at the grant
      date based on the fair value of the award using an option-pricing
      model that takes into account the stock price at the grant date, the
      exercise price, the expected life of the option, the volatility of
      the underlying stock, expected dividends and the risk-free interest
      rate over the expected life of the option.  The resulting
      compensation cost is recognized over the service period, which is
      usually the vesting period.

      Compensation cost can also be measured and accounted for using the
      intrinsic value based method of accounting prescribed in Accounting
      Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (APBO 25), "Accounting for Stock
      Issued to Employees."  Under the intrinsic value based method,
      compensation cost is the excess, if any, of the quoted market price
      of the stock at grant date or other measurement date over the amount
      paid to acquire the stock.

      The largest difference between SFAS 123 and APBO 25 as they relate
      to the Corporation is the amount of compensation cost attributable
      to the Corporation's fixed stock option plans and employee stock
      purchase plan (ESPP).  Under APBO 25 no compensation cost is
      recognized for fixed stock option plans because the exercise price
      is equal to the quoted market price at the date of grant and
      therefore there is no intrinsic value.  SFAS 123 compensation cost
      would equal the calculated fair value of the options granted.  Under
      APBO 25 no compensation cost is recognized for the ESPP because the
      discount (15%) and the plan meets the definition of a qualified plan
      of the Internal Revenue Code and meets the requirements of APBO 25.
      Under SFAS 123 the safe-harbor discount threshold is 5% for a plan
      to be non-compensatory.  SFAS 123 compensation cost would equal the
      initial discount (15% of beginning of plan period price per share)
      plus the value of a one year call option on 85% of a share of stock
      for each share purchased.

      As permitted by SFAS 123, the Corporation continues to measure
      compensation cost for such plans using the accounting method
      prescribed by APBO 25.

      Had compensation cost for the Corporation's ESPP and options granted
      after January 1, 1995 been determined consistent with SFAS 123, the
      Corporation's net income and earnings per share would have been
      reduced to the following estimated pro forma amounts:

  5.  Business Combinations

      The following acquisition, which was not considered a material
      business combination, was completed during the second quarter of
      2004:

             On May 27, 2004, the data processing segment, Metavante,
             completed the purchase of certain assets and the assumption of
             certain liabilities of the privately held Kirchman Corporation
             ("Kirchman"), of Orlando, Florida for $157.4 million in cash,
             subject to certain adjustments.  Kirchman is a provider of
             automation software and compliance services to the banking
             industry.  The acquisition of Kirchman provides Metavante with
             core-processing software that financial institutions can run
             in-house, a solution that Metavante previously did not offer.
             Initial goodwill, subject to the completion of appraisals and
             valuations of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed,
             amounted to $144.9 million.  The estimated identifiable
             intangible asset to be amortized (customer relationships) with
             an estimated useful life of 10 years amounted to $25.0
             million.  The goodwill and intangibles resulting from this
             transaction are deductible for tax purposes.

      Recently Announced Acquisitions

             On May 17, 2004, Metavante announced it had entered into a
             definitive agreement to acquire substantially all of the
             outstanding common stock of the NYCE Corporation ("NYCE"), of
             Montvale, New Jersey, for approximately $610 million in cash,
             subject to certain adjustments.  NYCE owns and operates one of
             the largest electronic funds transfer networks in the United
             States and provides debit card authorization processing
             services for automated teller machines (ATM), on-line and off-
             line signature based debit card transactions.  It is expected
             that this acquisition will enable Metavante to significantly
             expand its electronic funds transfer (EFT) business.  NYCE's
             annual revenue and net income in 2003 amounted to $142.8
             million and $30.7 million, respectively.  These results are
             not necessarily indicative of results to be expected by
             Metavante.  The acquisition was completed July 30, 2004.  See
             Note 14 Subsequent Events in the Notes to Financial

  8.  Sale of Receivables

      During the second quarter of 2004, $296.6 million of automobile
      loans were sold in securitization transactions.  Losses of $3.2
      million were recognized and are reported in Other income in the
      Consolidated Statements of Income.  Other income associated with
      auto securitizations, primarily servicing fees, amounted to $1.2

      the date of securitization resulting from securitizations completed
      during the second quarter were as follows (rate per annum):

           (based on original balance)                        0.22-0.72 %
         Residual cash flow discount rate                          12.0 %

      loans managed together with them, along with delinquency and credit
      loss information consisted of the following ($000's):

 11.  Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities

      Trading Instruments and Other Free Standing Derivatives

      The Corporation enters into various derivative contracts primarily
      to focus on providing derivative products to customers which enable
      them to manage their exposures to interest rate risk.  The
      Corporation's market risk from unfavorable movements in interest
      rates is generally economically hedged by concurrently entering into
      offsetting derivative contracts.  The offsetting derivative
      contracts generally have nearly identical notional values, terms and
      indices.

      Interest rate lock commitments on residential mortgage loans
      intended to be held for sale are considered free-standing derivative
      instruments.  For purposes of estimating the fair value of the free-
      standing derivative at the balance sheet date, the Corporation
      assumes the fair value of the written option at inception is zero
      and measures the change in market interest rates from the date of
      commitment to the balance sheet date.  The change in market rates
      and the expected duration of the loan form the basis for estimating
      fair value, which may result in an asset or liability.  The option
      to sell the mortgage loans at the time the commitments are made are
      also free-standing derivative instruments.  The change in fair value
      of these derivative instruments due to changes in interest rates
      tend to offset each other and act as economic hedges.  Loan
      commitments accounted for as derivatives are not material to the
      Corporation and the Corporation does not employ any formal hedging
      strategies.

      Trading and free-standing derivative contracts are not linked to
      specific assets and liabilities on the balance sheet or to
      forecasted transactions in an accounting hedge relationship and,
      therefore, do not qualify for hedge accounting under SFAS 133.  They
      are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recorded as a
      component of other noninterest income.

      At June 30, 2004, free standing interest rate swaps consisted of
      $0.9 billion in notional amount of receive fixed/pay floating with
      an aggregate negative fair value of $12.5 million and $0.9 billion
      in notional amount of pay fixed/receive floating with an aggregate
      positive fair value of $11.3 million.

      At June 30, 2004, interest rate caps purchased amounted to $13.8
      million in notional amount with a positive fair value of $0.2
      million and interest rate caps sold amounted to $13.8 million in
      notional amount with a negative fair value of $0.2 million.

      At June 30, 2004, the notional value of interest rate futures
      designated as trading was $2.2 billion with a negative fair value of
      $0.5 million.

      Fair Value Hedges

      The Corporation has fixed rate callable and institutional CDs and
      fixed rate long-term debt which expose the Corporation to
      variability in fair values due to changes in market interest rates.

      To limit the Corporation's exposure to changes in fair value due to
      changes in interest rates, the Corporation has entered into receive-
      fixed / pay-floating interest rate swaps with identical call
      features, thereby creating the effect of floating rate deposits and
      floating rate long-term debt.  The Corporation has determined that
      the hedges on the long-term debt qualify for the special short-cut
      accounting prescribed by SFAS 133, resulting in no ineffectiveness.

      The following table presents additional information with respect to
      selected fair value hedges.

      The impact from fair value hedges to total net interest income for
      the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 was a positive $10.9
      million and $20.4 million, respectively.  The impact to net interest
      income due to ineffectiveness was immaterial.

      Cash Flow Hedges

      The Corporation has variable rate loans, variable rate deposits and
      variable rate borrowings, which expose the Corporation to
      variability in interest payments due to changes in interest rates.
      The Corporation believes it is prudent to limit the variability of a
      portion of its interest receipts and payments.  To meet this
      objective, the Corporation enters into various types of derivative
      financial instruments to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting
      from interest rate risk.

 15
                          MARSHALL & ILSLEY CORPORATION
                   Notes to Financial Statements - Continued
                         June 30, 2004 & 2003 (Unaudited)

      The Corporation regularly originates and holds floating rate
      commercial loans that reprice monthly on the first business day to
      one-month LIBOR.  As a result, the Corporation's interest receipts
      are exposed to variability in cash flows due to changes in one-month
      LIBOR.

      In order to hedge the interest rate risk associated with the
      floating rate commercial loans indexed to one-month LIBOR, the
      Corporation has entered into receive fixed/pay LIBOR-based floating
      interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges against the first
      LIBOR-based interest payments received that, in the aggregate for
      each period, are interest payments on such principal amount of its
      then existing LIBOR-indexed floating-rate commercial loans equal to
      the notional amount of the interest rate swaps outstanding.

      Hedge effectiveness is assessed at inception and each quarter on an
      on-going basis using regression analysis that takes into account
      reset date differences for certain designated interest rate swaps
      that reset quarterly.  Each month the Corporation makes a
      determination that it is probable that the Corporation will continue
      to receive interest payments on at least that amount of principal of
      its existing LIBOR-indexed floating-rate commercial loans that
      reprice monthly on the first business day of each month to one-month
      LIBOR equal to the notional amount of the interest rate swaps
      outstanding.  Ineffectiveness is measured using the hypothetical
      derivative method and is recorded as a component of interest income
      on loans.

      The interest rate swaps change the variable-rate cash flow exposure
      on the loans, deposits and borrowings to fixed-rate cash flows.

      Changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps designated as
      cash flow hedges are reported in accumulated other comprehensive
      income.  These amounts are subsequently reclassified to interest
      income or interest expense as a yield adjustment in the same period
      in which the related interest on the variable rate loans, variable
      rate deposits and variable rate borrowings affects earnings.
      Ineffectiveness arising from differences between the critical terms
      of the hedging instrument and hedged item is recorded in interest
      income or expense.

      The following table summarizes the Corporation's cash flow hedges.

      The impact to total net interest income from cash flow hedges,
      including amortization of terminated cash flow hedges, for the three
      and six months ended June 30, 2004 was a negative $8.0 million and
      $17.0 million, respectively.  The impact due to ineffectiveness was
      immaterial.

 12.  Postretirement Health Plan

      The Corporation sponsors a defined benefit health plan that provides
      health care benefits to eligible current and retired employees.
      Eligibility for retiree benefits is dependent upon age, years of
      service, and participation in the health plan during active service.
      The plan is contributory and in 1997 and 2002 the plan was amended.
      Employees hired or retained from mergers after September 1, 1997
      will be granted access to the Corporation's plan upon becoming an
      eligible retiree; however, such retirees must pay 100% of the cost
      of health care benefits.  The plan continues to contain other cost-
      sharing features such as deductibles and coinsurance.

                                     ============  ============    ============  ============


      Benefit payments and expenses, net of participant contributions for
      the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 amounted to $0.9
      million and $1.9 million, respectively.  In addition, in the first
      quarter of 2004, the Corporation made a discretionary contribution
      to the retirement health benefit trust in the amount of $7.2
      million.  The expected benefit payments and expenses, net of
      participant contributions, and excluding discretionary
      contributions, for the year ended December 31, 2004 is $3.4 million.

      On December 8, 2003, the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and
      Modernization Act of 2003 (the "Act") was signed into law.  The Act
      introduces a prescription drug benefit program under Medicare
      (Medicare Part D) as well as a 28% federal subsidy to sponsors of
      retiree health care benefit plans that provide a benefit that is at
      least actuarially equivalent to Medicare Part D.

      At December 31, 2003, the Corporation had elected to defer
      recognition of the effect of the Act in accordance with Financial
      Accounting Standards Board Staff Position (FSP) 106-1, Accounting
      and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription
      Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003, until such time as
      specific authoritative guidance on the accounting for the federal
      subsidy was issued.

      In March 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
      proposed FSP 106-b, Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related
      to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act
      of 2003.  FSP 106-b addresses the employers' accounting for the
      effects of the Act.  The accounting for the subsidy applies only to
      the sponsor of a single-employer defined benefit postretirement
      health care plan.  The proposed rule would be effective for fiscal
      quarters beginning after June 15, 2004 with retroactive application
      of the guidance generally required.

      As of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, any
      measures of the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation or net
      periodic postretirement benefit cost do not reflect the effects of
      the Act.  The Corporation estimates that financial statement impact
      of the Act will not be material.

 13.  Segments

      The following represents the Corporation's operating segments as of
      and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003.
      There have not been any changes to the way the Corporation organizes
      its segments. Charges for services from the holding company had
      previously been excluded from segment income.  Beginning with the
      presentation of segment information in the Corporation's Annual
      Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, management
      determined that it was more meaningful to include such charges in
      evaluating the performance of its segments.  Prior year segment
      information has been restated to include such costs and conform to
      the current year presentation.  Fees - Intercompany represent
      intercompany revenues charged to other segments for providing
      certain services.  Expenses - Intercompany represent fees charged by
      other segments for certain services received.  For each segment,
      Expenses - Intercompany are not the costs of that segment's reported
      intercompany revenues.  Intersegment expenses and assets have been
      eliminated. ($ in millions):

 14.  Subsequent Events

      On July 1, 2004, Metavante completed the acquisition of all of the
      outstanding common stock of the privately held Advanced Financial
      Solutions, Inc. and its affiliated companies (collectively "AFS"),
      of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma for $140.3 million in cash, subject to
      adjustment.  AFS is a provider of image-based payment, transaction
      and document software technologies.  AFS also operates an electronic
      check-clearing network through one of its affiliates.  It is
      expected that this acquisition will allow Metavante to expand its
      current product offerings in payment and transaction processing and
      image related services, provide the technology and expertise to help
      banks facilitate the necessary change to comply with the Check
      Clearing for the 21st Century Act (known as Check 21) and capture
      another leg in the payments segment-electronic check image exchange.
      Additional contingent consideration may be paid based on the
      attainment of certain performance objectives each year, beginning on
      the date of closing and ending December 31, 2004, and each year
      thereafter through 2007. Contingent payments, if made, would be
      reflected as adjustments to goodwill.  Initial goodwill, subject to
      the completion of appraisals and valuations of the assets acquired
      and liabilities assumed, amounted to $96.3 million.  The estimated
      identifiable intangible asset to be amortized (customer
      relationships) with an estimated useful life of 12 years amounted to
      $22.9 million.  The goodwill and intangibles resulting from this
      transaction are partially deductible for tax purposes.

      On July 29, 2004, the Corporation completed two financing
      transactions aggregating $1.0 billion.  The net proceeds will be
      used for general corporate purposes, including to provide long-term
      financing for the two recently completed Metavante acquisitions and
      to fund the acquisition of the NYCE Corporation.  The financing
      transactions consisted of the following:

      The Corporation issued $600.0 million of 4.375% Senior Notes due
      August 1, 2009.  Interest is payable semi-annually each February 1st
      and August 1st with the first payment due February 1, 2005.

      The Corporation and M&I Capital Trust B also issued 16,000,000 units
      of Common SPACESSM.  Each unit has a stated value of $25.00 for an
      aggregate value of $400.0 million.  Each Common SPACES consists of
      (i) a stock purchase contract under which the investor agrees to
      purchase for $25, a fraction of a share of the Corporation's common
      stock on the stock purchase date and (ii) a 1/40, or 2.5%, undivided
      beneficial interest in a preferred security of M&I Capital Trust B,
      also referred to as the STACKSSM, with an initial liquidation amount
      of $1,000.  The stock purchase date is expected to be August 15,
      2007, but could be deferred for quarterly periods until August 15,
      2008.

      The Corporation will make quarterly contract payments under the
      stock purchase contract at the annual rate of 2.60% of the stated
      amount of $25 per stock purchase contract.  Until the stock purchase
      date, M&I Capital Trust B will make quarterly distributions on the
      STACKS at the annual rate of 3.90%.

      The STACKS will be remarketed for settlement on the stock purchase
      date.  Following a successful remarketing, the distribution rate on
      the STACKS will be reset.  The Corporation may elect, in connection
      with the remarketing, that the STACKS will be redeemable at the
      Corporation's option at any time on or after the second anniversary
      of the stock purchase date.

      On the stock purchase date, the number of shares of common stock the
      Corporation will issue upon settlement of the stock purchase
      contracts depends on the applicable market value per share of the
      Corporation's common stock, which will be determined just prior to
      the stock purchase date, and other factors.  The Corporation
      currently estimates that it will issue approximately 8.8 million to
      10.9 million common shares to settle the stock purchase contracts.

      The Common SPACES will qualify as tier 1 capital for regulatory
      capital purposes.

                         June 30, 2004 & 2003 (Unaudited)

      For accounting purposes, the Corporation will recognize the present
      value of the quarterly contract payments under the stock purchase
      contract as a liability with an offsetting reduction in
      shareholders' equity.  The liability will increase over three years
      by charges to the consolidated statement of income and be reduced by
      the contract payments.  M&I Capital Trust B will not be consolidated
      in the Corporation's financial statements, however, the aggregate
      principal amount of the subordinated debt securities the Corporation
      issued to M&I Capital Trust B, which is the sole asset of M&I
      Capital Trust B, will be reported in long-term borrowings in the
      Corporation's consolidated balance sheet.  The interest paid on the
      subordinated debt securities, initially at an annual rate of 3.90%,
      will be reported as interest expense on long-term borrowings in the
      consolidated statement of income.  Fees and expenses incurred for
      the offering of Common SPACES will be allocated between the
      subordinated debt securities and stock purchase contracts.  The
      amount allocated to the subordinated debt securities will be
      amortized and recognized as a component of interest expense based on
      a level constant rate.  The amount allocated to the stock purchase
      contracts will be a charge (reduction) to shareholders' equity.
      Before issuance of the common shares upon settlement of the stock
      purchase contracts, the stock purchase contracts will be reflected
      in diluted earnings per share calculations using the treasury stock
      method.  The Corporation expects there will be some dilutive effect
      on earnings per share for periods when the average market price of
      the Corporation's common stock for the reporting period is above
      $46.28 but no dilutive effect on diluted earnings per share in
      periods when the average market price is equal to or below $46.28.

      On July 30, 2004, Metavante completed the acquisition of all of the
      outstanding common stock of the NYCE Corporation, for $610.7 million
      in cash, subject to certain adjustments.  Initial goodwill, subject
      to the completion of appraisals and valuations of the assets
      acquired and liabilities assumed, amounted to $440.4 million.  The
      estimated identifiable intangible asset to be amortized (customer
      relationships) with an estimated useful life of 15 years amounted to
      $172.0 million.  The goodwill and intangibles resulting from this
      transaction are not deductible for tax purposes.

                                 OVERVIEW
                                 --------

Earnings growth in the second quarter of 2004 was in many respects driven
by the same factors that affected earnings growth in the first quarter of
2004.  Loan and deposit growth, lower provisions for loan and lease losses
resulting from the continued improvement in credit quality, revenue and
earnings growth by both the data processing segment ("Metavante") and
trust services reporting unit and continued expense management resulted in
double-digit earnings growth in the three and six months ended June 30,
2004 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2003.  During the
second quarter and first half of 2004, the Corporation experienced lower
revenue from mortgage loan sales compared to the same period last year.

Net income for the second quarter of 2004 amounted to $151.7 million
compared to $134.7 million for the same period in the prior year, an
increase of $17.0 million, or 12.7%.  Diluted earnings per share was $0.67
for the three months ended June 30, 2004, compared with $0.59 for the
three months ended June 30, 2003, an increase of 13.6%.  The return on
average assets and average equity was 1.69% and 17.92% for the quarter
ended June 30, 2004, and 1.62% and 16.88%, respectively, for the quarter
ended June 30, 2003.

Net income for the first half of 2004 amounted to $297.8 million compared
to $262.7 million for the first half of 2003, an increase of $35.1
million, or 13.4%.  Diluted earnings per share was $1.32 for the six
months ended June 30, 2004, compared with $1.15 for the six months ended
June 30, 2003, an increase of 14.8%.  The return on average assets and
average equity was 1.69% and 17.67% for the first half of 2004, and 1.61%
and 16.81%, respectively, for the first half of 2003.

The Corporation has experienced strong earnings growth in the first half
of 2004.  Management continues to believe that low double digit earnings
growth in 2004 is achievable, however, with the economy recovering slowly
and modest evidence of job growth in the markets the Corporation serves,
management remains cautious in its expectations that each positive
attribute experienced in the first and second quarters will continue or
improve in future quarters.  The Corporation's actual results for the year
ended December 31, 2004 could differ materially from those expected by
management.  See "Forward-Looking Statements" in this Form 10-Q and the
Corporation's 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of the
various risk factors that could cause actual results to be different than
expected results.


                    NOTEWORTHY TRANSACTIONS AND EVENTS
                    ----------------------------------

Some of the more notable transactions and events that occurred in the
first half of 2004 and 2003 consisted of the following:

Second Quarter 2004
-------------------
On May 17, 2004, Metavante announced it had entered into a definitive
agreement to acquire substantially all of the outstanding common stock of
the privately held NYCE Corporation ("NYCE"), of Montvale, New Jersey, for
approximately $610 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments.  NYCE
owns and operates one of the largest electronic funds transfer networks in
the United States and provides debit card authorization processing
services for automated teller machines (ATM), on-line and off-line
signature based debit card transactions.  It is expected that this
acquisition will enable Metavante to significantly expand its electronic
funds transfer (EFT) business.  NYCE's annual revenue and net income in
2003 amounted to $142.8 million and $30.7 million, respectively.  These
results are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected by
Metavante.  Shareholder and regulatory approvals have been obtained and
the transaction closed on July 30, 2004.  See Note 14 Subsequent Events in
the Notes to Financial Statements.

On May 27, 2004, Metavante completed the purchase of certain assets and
the assumption of certain liabilities for $157.4 million in cash of the
privately held Kirchman Corporation ("Kirchman") of Orlando, Florida.
Kirchman provides automation software and compliance services to the
banking industry.  The acquisition of Kirchman  provides Metavante with
core processing software that financial institutions can run in-house, a
solution that Metavante previously did not offer.  One month of Kirchman's
results of operations are included in the consolidated statements of
income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004.  See Note 5
Business Combinations in the Notes to Financial Statements.

During the second quarter of 2004, the Corporation filed a shelf
registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission which
will enable the Corporation to issue various securities, including debt
securities, common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares, purchase
contracts, units, warrants, and trust preferred securities, up to an
aggregate amount of $3.0 billion.  On July 29, 2004, the Corporation
issued $600 million of senior notes and $400 million of Common SPACESSM
under the shelf registration statement.  See Note 14 Subsequent Events in
the Notes to Financial Statements.

First Quarter 2004
------------------
During the first quarter of 2004, the Corporation's Banking segment
completed the purchase for cash of certain assets and the assumption of
certain liabilities of AmerUs Home Lending, Inc. ("AmerUs"), an Iowa-based
corporation engaged in the business of brokering and servicing mortgage
and home equity loans.  Although not material to the Corporation, this
acquisition enhances the Corporation's wholesale lending activities by
expanding its broker network and acquiring technology that enhances the
efficiency of the wholesale lending process.

During the first quarter of 2004, the Corporation prepaid and retired
$55.0 million of higher cost fixed rate debt that resulted in a charge to
earnings of $4.9 million.  The loss is reported in other in Other expense
in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

During the first quarter of 2004, Metavante announced the signing of a
definitive agreement to acquire all of the outstanding common stock of the
privately held Advanced Financial Solutions, Inc. and its affiliated
companies (collectively "AFS"), of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.  AFS is a
provider of image-based payment, transaction and document software
technologies.  AFS also operates an electronic check-clearing network
through one of its affiliates.  It is expected that this acquisition will
allow Metavante to expand its current product offerings in payment and
transaction processing and image related services, provide the technology
and expertise to help banks facilitate the necessary change to comply with
the Check Clearing for the 21st Century Act (known as Check 21) and
capture another leg in the payments segment-electronic check image
exchange.  Metavante completed this acquisition on July 1, 2004.  See Note
14, Subsequent Events in Notes to Financial Statements.

Second Quarter 2003
-------------------
During the second quarter of 2003, the Corporation announced it would
redeem all of the Floating Rate Debentures held by its subsidiary, MVBI
Capital Trust, and MVBI Capital Trust would redeem all of its currently
outstanding Floating Rate Trust Preferred Securities at an aggregate
redemption price of $14.95 million.  In conjunction with the redemption,
the Corporation terminated the associated interest rate swap designated as
a cash flow hedge.  The loss in accumulated other comprehensive income and
unamortized debt issuance costs aggregating $2.0 million were charged to
Other expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income during the second
quarter of 2003.

During the second quarter of 2003, the Corporation recognized impairment
losses on the interest-only strips which represent retained interests
associated with its auto securitization activities in the amount of $4.1
million.  The loss is reported in net investment securities gains (losses)
in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

First Quarter 2003
------------------
During the first quarter of 2003, Metavante completed the integration of
its acquisition of Paytrust, Inc. ("Paytrust").  Acquisition-related
transition expenses amounted to $2.5 million and are reported in various
line items in Other expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income.


                         NET INTEREST INCOME
                         -------------------

Net interest income for the second quarter of 2004 amounted to $284.0
million compared to $263.9 million reported for the second quarter of
2003.  For the six months ended June 30, 2004, net interest income
amounted to $562.6 million compared to $528.4 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2003.  Loan growth, slower prepayment activity across all
asset classes, growth in noninterest bearing deposits and the impact of
prepaying higher cost debt in the latter part of 2003 all contributed to
the increase in net interest income.  Factors negatively affecting net
interest income included the impact of lengthening liabilities in order to
reduce future volatility in net interest income due to interest rate
movements, cash expenditures for current year acquisitions and cash
expenditures for repurchases of common stock and acquisitions in the prior
year.

Average earning assets in the second quarter of 2004 amounted to $32.5
billion compared to $29.9 billion in the second quarter of 2003, an
increase of $2.6 billion or 8.7%.  Average loans and leases accounted for
$2.1 billion of the quarter over quarter growth.  Average investment
securities increased $0.6 billion.  Average other short-term investments
and trading securities decreased $0.1 billion in the second quarter of
2004 compared to the second quarter of 2003.  Average earning assets for
the six months ended June 30, 2004 amounted to $31.9 billion compared to
$29.6 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2003, an increase of $2.3
billion or 7.9%.  Average loans and leases accounted for $1.8 billion of
the growth over the respective periods.  Average investment securities
increased $0.6 billion.  Average other short-term investments and trading
securities decreased $0.1 billion in the first half of 2004 compared to
the same period in 2003.

 25
Average interest bearing liabilities increased $2.0 billion or 7.9% in the
second quarter of 2004 compared to the same period in 2003.  Average
interest bearing deposits increased $0.9 billion or 5.1% in the second
quarter of 2004 compared to the second quarter of last year.  Average
total borrowings increased $1.1 billion or 15.3% in the second quarter of
2004 compared to the same period in 2003.  For the six months ended June
30, 2004, average interest bearing liabilities increased $1.6 billion or
6.6% compared to the same period in 2003.  Average interest bearing
deposits increased $0.9 billion or 5.2% in the first six months of 2004
compared to the first six months of last year.  Average total borrowings
increased $0.7 billion or 10.0% in the first half of 2004 compared to the
same period in 2003.

Average noninterest bearing deposits increased $0.4 billion or 10.8% in
the three months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the same period last
year.  On a year-to-date basis, average noninterest bearing deposits
increased $0.4 billion or 11.3% in the first six months of 2004 compared
to the first six months of 2003.

lease portfolio for the current quarter and previous four quarters are

Total consolidated average loans and leases increased $2.1 billion or 8.6%
in the second quarter of 2004 compared to the second quarter of 2003.
Total average commercial loan and lease growth amounted to $1.2 billion or
7.7% in the current quarter compared to the second quarter of the prior
year.  The growth in average commercial loans and leases in the second
quarter of 2004 compared to the second quarter of 2003 was primarily due
to the growth in average commercial real estate loans which increased $0.7
billion.  Total average personal loans and leases increased $1.0 billion
or 10.3% in the second quarter of 2004 compared to the second quarter of
2003.  This growth was driven primarily by growth in home equity loans and
lines and residential real estate loans which each increased approximately
$0.6 billion.  Average indirect auto loans and leases declined
approximately $0.3 billion in the current quarter compared to the second
quarter of the prior year.  From a production standpoint, residential real
estate loan closings in the second quarter of 2004 were $0.5 billion or
59.2% ahead of loan closings in the first quarter of 2004 but were
approximately $0.5 billion or 27.3% lower in the second quarter of 2004
compared to the second quarter of 2003.  Early indications, as measured by
application volume, suggest that loan closings in the third quarter of
2004 may approximate first quarter production.

 26
For the six month period, total consolidated average loans and leases
increased $1.8 billion or 7.5% in the first half of 2004 compared to the
first half of 2003.  Total average commercial loan and lease growth
amounted to $1.1 billion or 7.3% in the six months ended June 30, 2004
compared to the six months ended June 30, 2003.  The growth in average
commercial loans and leases in the first half of 2004 compared to the same
period in 2003 was primarily due to the growth in average commercial real
estate loans which increased $0.7 billion.  Total average personal loans
and leases increased $0.7 billion or 7.9% in the first six months of 2004
compared to the first six months of 2003.  This growth was driven
primarily by growth in home equity loans and lines and residential real
estate loans which each increased approximately $0.5 billion.  Average
indirect auto loans and leases declined approximately $0.3 billion in the
six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the six months ended June 30,
2003.  From a production standpoint, residential real estate loan closings
declined approximately $1.0 billion or 32.6% in the first half of 2004
compared to the first half of 2003.

The growth in average commercial loans since the fourth quarter of 2003
has been a combination of loans to new customers and increased activity
from existing customers whose businesses are in a variety of industries
located in Wisconsin and generally throughout the Corporation's markets
outside of the state.  While it may be too early to determine if this is
the early stage of more robust business loan demand, the Corporation's
commercial lending activities have historically fared well as the economy
strengthens in its markets.  Home equity loans and lines, which includes
M&I's wholesale activity, continue to be the primary consumer loan
product.  The Corporation anticipates these products will continue to
drive growth in the consumer side of its banking activities.

Generally, the Corporation sells residential real estate production in the
secondary market, although selected loans with adjustable rate
characteristics are periodically retained in the portfolio.  Residential
real estate loans sold to investors amounted to $0.5 billion in the second
quarter of 2004 compared to $1.1 billion in the second quarter of the
prior year.  Approximately $58.6 million of loans sold were attributable
to the AmerUs acquisition.  For the six months ended June 30, 2004
residential real estate loans sold to investors amounted to $0.8 billion
compared to $2.1 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2003.
Approximately $117.0 million of loans sold in the first half of 2004 were
attributable to the AmerUs acquisition.  At June 30, 2004 and 2003, the
Corporation had approximately $84.3 million and $298.5 million of mortgage
loans held for sale, respectively.  Gains from the sale of mortgage loans
amounted to $9.0 million in the second quarter of 2004 compared to $17.0
million in the second quarter of last year.  For the six months ended June
30, 2004 and 2003, gains from the sale of mortgage loans amounted to $14.2
million and $30.3 million, respectively.  Approximately $1.1 million and
$2.7 million of the gain in the second quarter and first half of 2004,
respectively, was attributable to the AmerUs acquisition.

Auto loans securitized and sold in the second quarter of 2004 amounted to
$0.3 billion compared to $0.2 billion in the second quarter of last year.
For the six months ended June 30, 2004, auto loans securitized and sold
amounted to $0.4 billion compared to $0.3 billion for the six months ended
June 30, 2003.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, losses
from the sale and securitization of auto loans amounted to $3.2 million
and $2.2 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June
30, 2003, gains from the sale and securitization of auto loans amounted to
$3.0 million and $5.3 million, respectively.  The losses incurred in 2004
are primarily due to lower loan interest spreads associated with new auto
loan production in a rising interest rate environment.

The Corporation anticipates that it will continue to divest itself of
selected assets through sale or securitization in future periods.

Total consolidated average deposits increased $1.4 billion or 6.2% in the
second quarter of 2004 compared to the second quarter of 2003.  Average
noninterest bearing deposits increased $0.4 billion or 10.8% while average
bank-issued interest bearing activity accounts were relatively unchanged
in the current quarter compared to the second quarter of the prior year.
Average bank-issued time deposits declined $0.1 billion in the second
quarter of 2004 compared to the second quarter of 2003, but recently has
shown some signs of growth.

For the six months ended June 30, 2004, total average consolidated
deposits increased $1.4 billion or 6.3% compared to the six months ended
June 30, 2003.  Average noninterest bearing deposits increased $0.4
billion or 11.3% while average bank-issued interest bearing activity
accounts were relatively unchanged in the first half of 2004 compared to
the first half of 2003.

The growth in bank issued deposits, especially noninterest bearing
deposits, includes both commercial and retail banking and was influenced
by the lower interest rate environment.  In commercial banking, the focus
remains on developing deeper relationships through the sale of treasury
management products and services along with revised incentive plans
focused on growing deposits.  The retail banking strategy continues to
focus on aggressively selling the right products to meet the needs of
customers and enhance the Corporation's profitability.  The Corporation
continues to emphasize the sale of checking products.  However, management
expects the annual growth in noninterest bearing balances in 2004 to be
more modest than that experienced in 2003.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, average wholesale
deposits increased $1.2 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively compared to
the three and six months ended June 30, 2003.  The Corporation continues
to make greater use of wholesale funding alternatives, especially
institutional certificates of deposits.  These deposits are funds in the
form of deposits generated through distribution channels other than M&I's
own banking branches.  These deposits allow the Corporation's bank
subsidiaries to gather funds across a wider geographic base and at pricing
levels considered attractive, where the underlying depositor may be retail
or institutional.  Access to and use of these funding sources also provide
the Corporation with the flexibility to not pursue unprofitable single
service time deposit relationships.

The net interest margin, as a percent of average earning assets on a fully
taxable equivalent basis ("FTE"), decreased 4 basis points from 3.65
percent in the second quarter of 2003 to 3.61 percent in the second
quarter of 2004.  The yield on average interest earning assets decreased
29 basis points in the second quarter of 2004 compared to the second
quarter of the prior year.  The cost of bank issued interest bearing
deposits in the current quarter decreased 19 basis points from the same
quarter of the previous year.  The increase in noninterest bearing
deposits as previously discussed provided a benefit to the net interest
margin. The cost of other funding sources (wholesale deposits and total
borrowings) decreased 54 basis points in the current quarter compared to
the second quarter of last year.

On a year to date basis, the net interest margin, as a percent of average
earning assets on a FTE basis, decreased 7 basis points from 3.72 percent
in the six months ended June 30, 2003 to 3.65 percent in the six months
ended June 30, 2004.  The yield on average interest earning assets
decreased 37 basis points in the first half of 2004 compared to the first
six months of the prior year.  The cost of bank issued interest bearing
deposits in the six months ended June 30, 2004, decreased 25 basis points
from the same period of the previous year.  As previously discussed, the
increase in noninterest bearing deposits provided a benefit to the net
interest margin.  The cost of other funding sources (wholesale deposits
and total borrowings) decreased 56 basis points in the six months ended
June 30, 2004, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2003.

 30
Net interest income for the quarter and first six months of 2004 was
affected by a number of factors.  Loan growth, the early retirement of
higher cost debt in the latter part of 2003, and lower levels of
prepayment activity were beneficial to net interest income in 2004.  The
low absolute level of interest rates and increased level of prepayments
experienced in the first three quarters of 2003 shortened the expected
life of many of the Corporation's financial assets.  Lower reinvestment
rates and a conscious slowing in deposit repricing resulting from
selectively lowering deposit rates, has adversely impacted net interest
income.

Management expects the net interest margin as a percent of average earning
assets will likely trend down over the remainder of 2004 as a result of
the following: loan spreads tend to be more narrow, particularly as
interest rates increase; as the economy improves, the Corporation's
capacity to generate loans will likely exceed its ability to generate
appropriately priced deposits; and the cost of funding Metavante's recent
acquisitions will result in additional interest expense in future periods.
See Note 14, Subsequent Events, in Notes to Financial Statements for a
description of recently completed debt offerings.  Net interest income and
the net interest margin can vary and continue to be influenced by loan and
deposit growth, product spreads, pricing competition in the Corporation's
markets, prepayment activity, future interest rate changes and various
other factors.

Nonperforming assets consist of nonperforming loans and leases and other
real estate owned (OREO).

OREO is principally comprised of commercial and residential properties
acquired in partial or total satisfaction of problem loans and amounted to
$10.4 million at June 30, 2004, compared to $13.2 million at March 31,
2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.

Nonperforming loans and leases consist of nonaccrual, renegotiated or
restructured loans, and loans and leases that are delinquent 90 days or
more and still accruing interest.  The balance of nonperforming loans and
leases can fluctuate widely based on the timing of cash collections,
renegotiations and renewals.

Maintaining nonperforming assets at an acceptable level is important to
the ongoing success of a financial services institution.  The
Corporation's comprehensive credit review and approval process are
critical to ensuring that the amount of nonperforming assets on a long-
term basis is minimized within the overall framework of acceptable levels
of credit risk.  In addition to the negative impact on net interest income
and credit losses, nonperforming assets also increase operating costs due
to the expense associated with collection efforts.

 32
At June 30, 2004, nonperforming loans and leases amounted to $145.0
million or 0.53% of consolidated loans and leases compared to $156.1
million or 0.60% of consolidated loans and leases at March 31, 2004 and
$172.8 million or 0.69% of consolidated loans and leases at December 31,
2003.  Nonaccrual loans and leases have been the primary source of the
decrease in nonperforming loans and leases since December 31, 2003.  The
net decrease was primarily due to continued reductions and positive
resolutions in several portfolio segments and improving credit conditions
throughout the loan and lease portfolios.

Net charge-offs amounted to $5.0 million or 0.08% of average loans and
leases in the second quarter of 2004 compared to $4.9 million or 0.08% of
average loans and leases in the first quarter of 2004 and $8.3 million or
0.13% of average loans and leases in the fourth quarter of 2003.  The net
charge-off activity experienced in the first and second quarters of 2004
are the lowest levels experienced in any individual quarter since the
second quarter of 2000.  This lower level of net charge-offs has to some
extent been the result of higher than normal recoveries.  Based on the
status of some of the larger charge-offs recognized in recent quarters,
management expects recoveries will likely return to a lower level in
future periods.

Credit quality continued to show improvement as evidenced by the decline
in nonperforming loans and leases and net charge-offs which were lower
than expected based on the state of the economy in the markets the
Corporation serves.  At year-end 2003, the Corporation disclosed that it
expects net charge-offs in 2004 to range from 0.15% to 0.20% for the year
and nonperfoming loans and leases as a percent of total loans and leases
outstanding to be in the range of 70-80 basis points.  Based on first and
second quarter experience, it appears that the Corporation's credit
quality ratios may be at the low end of these ranges in the near term.
Management continues to believe that the long-term impact of the recent
recession may still provide some unanticipated results within the loan and
lease portfolio and some degree of stress and uncertainty continues to
exist.

The provision for loan and lease losses amounted to $9.2 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2004 compared to $9.0 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2004 and $19.6 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2003.  The Corporation has not substantively changed any aspect
to its overall approach in the determination of the allowance for loan and
lease losses.  There have been no material changes in assumptions or
estimation techniques as compared to prior periods that impacted the
determination of the current period allowance.  The allowance for loan and
lease losses as a percent of total loans and leases outstanding was 1.32%
at June 30, 2004, 1.36% at March 31, 2004 and 1.39% at December 31, 2003.


                             OTHER INCOME
                             ------------

Total other income in the second quarter of 2004 amounted to $330.0
million compared to $294.7 million in the same period last year, an
increase of $35.3 million or 12.0%.  For the six months ended June 30,
2004, total other income amounted to $643.4 million compared to $585.2
million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, an increase of $58.2
million or 10.0%.  The increase in other income was primarily due to
growth in data processing services and trust services revenue and was
partially offset by lower mortgage banking revenue.

Data processing services revenue amounted to $197.3 million in the second
quarter of 2004 compared to $158.0 million in the second quarter of 2003,
an increase of $39.3 million or 24.9%.  For the six months ended June 30,
2004, data processing services revenue amounted to $383.5 million compared
to $315.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, an increase of
$68.4 million or 21.7%.  Revenue associated with Metavante's November 2003
acquisition of Printing For Systems, Inc. and the May 2004 acquisition of
the Kirchman Corporation contributed approximately $14.9 million and $26.8
million to the revenue growth in the three and six months ended June 30,
2004, over the comparable three and six months ended June 30, 2003.
Overall, revenue growth was generally strong throughout all aspects of the
segment.  Total buyout revenue, which varies from period to period,
increased $1.3 million in the current quarter compared to the second
quarter of last year.  For the six months ended June 30, 2004 buyout
revenue increased $2.2 million compared to the six months ended June 30,
2003.  Management expects data processing services revenue will continue
to demonstrate revenue growth over the comparative periods of the prior
year.  Management continues to believe that the revenue and segment income
outlook that was provided in the 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2004 is achievable and will be enhanced by
Metavante's recent acquisitions.  See Note 14, Subsequent Events in Notes
to Financial Statements for an update on Metavante's recently completed
acquisitions.

For the three months ended June 30, 2004, item processing revenue amounted
to $10.9 million compared to $9.6 million for the three months ended June
30, 2003, an increase of $1.3 million or 13.9%.  For the six months ended
June 30, 2004, item processing revenue amounted to $22.3 million compared
to $19.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, an increase of
$2.5 million or 12.5%.  The increase in revenues is due to new customers
and increased volumes processed.

 33
Trust services revenue amounted to $37.9 million in the second quarter of
2004 compared to $31.2 million in the second quarter of 2003, an increase
of $6.7 million or 21.6%.  For the six months ended June 30, 2004, trust
services revenue amounted to $74.2 million compared to $61.2 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2003, an increase of $13.0 million or 21.2%.
Revenue associated with the employee benefit plan business purchased from
a national banking association located in Missouri contributed
approximately $2.7 million and $4.3 million to the revenue growth in the
three and six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the same periods in
the prior year.  The remainder of the increase in revenue was due to sales
efforts, positive equity market performance and some shifting of funds
into equities.  Assets under management were approximately $17.1 billion
at June 30, 2004, compared to $15.7 billion at December 31, 2003, and
$14.0 billion at June 30, 2003.

Total mortgage banking revenue was $11.7 million in the second quarter of
2004 compared with $21.8 million in the second quarter of 2003, a decrease
of $10.1 million.  For the six months ended June 30, 2004, total mortgage
banking revenue was $18.7 million compared with $39.3 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2003, a decrease of $20.6 million.  For the three
and six months ended June 30, 2004, the Corporation sold $0.5 billion and
$0.8 billion of residential mortgage loans to the secondary market.
Retained interests in the form of mortgage servicing rights amounted to
$0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004.  By comparison, for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, the Corporation sold $1.1
billion and $2.1 billion of residential mortgage loans to the secondary
market.  Retained interests in the form of mortgage servicing rights
amounted to $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003.
Approximately $58.6 million of the residential mortgage loans sold and
$1.1 million of the reported gain recognized in the second quarter of 2004
and $117.0 million of the residential mortgage loans sold and $2.7 million
of the reported gain recognized in the first half of 2004 was attributable
to the AmerUs acquisition.

Net investment securities activities for the three and six months ended
June 30, 2004 were not significant.  For the three and six months ended
June 30, 2003 net investment securities losses amounted to $2.6 million
and $1.0 million, respectively.  Impairment losses on the interest-only
strips which represent retained interests associated with auto loan
securitization activity amounted to $4.1 million in the second quarter of
2003.  For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Corporation's Capital
Markets Group recognized gains, which can vary from period to period, of
$1.8 million.

Other income in the second quarter of 2004 amounted to $39.9 million
compared to $43.1 million in the second quarter of 2003, a decrease of
$3.2 million.  For the six months ended June 30, 2004, other income
amounted to $80.8 million compared to $83.6 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2003, a decrease of $2.8 million.  For the three and six
months ended June 30, 2004, auto securitization income decreased $5.7
million and $6.7 million compared to the same periods of the prior year as
previously discussed.  During the second quarter of 2003, the Corporation
sold two bank branches at a gain of $0.9 million.  Gains from the sale of
other real estate decreased $0.8 million in the six months ended June 30,
2004 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2003.  The decrease was
primarily due to the sale of one large property in the first quarter of
2003.  Growth in various other sources of fee income in the second quarter
and first six months of 2004 compared to the respective periods of 2003,
offset the income declines previously discussed.


                              OTHER EXPENSE
                              -------------

Total other expense for the three months ended June 30, 2004 amounted to
$374.7 million compared to $335.7 million for the three months ended June
30, 2003, an increase of $39.0 million or 11.6%.  For the six months ended
June 30, 2004, total other expense amounted to $737.0 million compared to
$671.3 million for the  six months ended June 30, 2003, an increase of
$65.7 million or 9.8%.  Total other expense for the second quarter of 2004
includes the product impairment charge by Metavante, the operating
expenses associated with Metavante's acquisition of Printing For Systems,
Inc. in November 2003 and the Kirchman Corporation in May 2004, the
purchase of certain employee benefit plan segments beginning in the third
quarter of 2003 by the Trust Services reporting unit and the purchase of
AmerUs Home Lending, Inc. by the Banking segment on January 1, 2004.  Such
operating expenses have all been included in the Corporation's
consolidated operating expenses since the acquisitions were completed.
Total other operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2004,
includes the aforementioned items as well as the charge in the first
quarter of 2004 for the early retirement of some higher cost fixed rate
debt.  Total other expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 includes
the transition costs associated with the completion of Metavante's
integration of Paytrust.  For the three and six months ended June 30,
2004, the estimated aggregate impact of these items was an increase to
total other expense over the comparative periods of approximately $20.8
million and $33.3 million, respectively.  Excluding the impact of these
items, total other expense growth in the second quarter of 2004 compared
to the second quarter of 2003 was approximately $18.2 million or 5.4% and
for the six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the six months ended
June 30, 2003, was approximately $32.4 million or 4.8%.

 34
Expense control is sometimes measured in the financial services industry
by the efficiency ratio statistic.  The efficiency ratio is calculated by
taking total other expense divided by the sum of total other income
(including Capital Markets revenue but excluding investment securities
gains or losses) and net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent
basis.  The Corporation's efficiency ratios for the three months ended
June 30, 2004, and prior four quarters were:

Salaries and employee benefits expense amounted to $211.9 million in the
second quarter of 2004 compared to $193.5 million in the second quarter of
2003, an increase of $18.4 million or 9.5%.  For the six months ended June
30, 2004, salaries and employee benefits expense amounted to $415.8
compared to $390.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, an
increase of $25.1 million or 6.4%.  Salaries and benefits associated with
acquisitions and increases in performance-based incentive compensation
were the primary drivers of the growth in salaries and employee benefits
expense in the second quarter and first six months of 2004 compared to the
respective periods in 2003.  Salaries and expense growth for the six
months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2003
was offset by the salaries and benefits expense associated with the
Paytrust integration activities in the first quarter of 2003.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, occupancy and equipment
expense amounted to $44.5 million and $91.8 million, respectively and was
relatively unchanged over the comparative periods.  Included in equipment
expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, was
approximately $0.4 million of charges associated with a product impairment
as previously discussed.  Occupancy and equipment expense associated with
the Paytrust integration activities in the first quarter of the 2003 was
approximately $0.8 million.

Software expenses, processing charges, supplies and printing, professional
services and shipping and handling expenses totaled $58.5 million in the
second quarter of 2004 compared to $48.7 million in the second quarter of
2003, an increase of $9.8 million or 20.2%.  Metavante contributed
approximately $9.0 million to the expense growth, with a significant part
of that expense growth due to its acquisitions.  Expense growth in these
areas by other segments and the holding company were offset by lower
expenses associated with residential mortgage loan production which were
approximately $1.8 million less in the second quarter of 2004 compared to
the second quarter of the prior year.  For the six months ended June 30,
2004, software expenses, processing charges, supplies and printing,
professional services and shipping and handling expenses totaled $114.0
million compared to $100.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003,
an increase of $13.1 million or 12.9%.  Metavante's expense growth in
these areas, including the effect of its acquisitions net of the
applicable expenses associated with the Paytrust integration activities in
the first quarter of 2003, was the primary contributor to the expense
growth in the first six months of 2004 compared to the first six months in
2003. Expense growth in these areas by other segments and the holding
company were offset by lower expenses associated with residential mortgage
loan production which were approximately $3.5 million less in the six
month ended June 30, 2004 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2003.

Amortization of intangibles amounted to $5.4 million in the second quarter
of 2004 compared to $7.5 million in the second quarter of 2003, a decrease
of $2.1 million.  For the six months ended June 30, 2004, amortization of
intangibles amounted to $10.9 million compared to $14.4 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2003, a decrease of $3.5 million.  Amortization
and valuation reserve adjustments associated with mortgage servicing
rights decreased amortization expense $2.1 million in the second quarter
of  2004 compared to the second quarter of 2003 and decreased amortization
expense $2.7 million in the first half of 2004 compared to the first half
of 2003.  The carrying value of the Corporation's mortgage servicing
rights was $4.3 million at June 30, 2004.  Amortization of core deposit
intangibles, which is based on a declining balance method, decreased $0.6
million in the second quarter of 2004 compared to the second quarter of
the prior year and decreased $1.7 million in the six months ended June 30,
2004 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2003.  Included in
amortization of intangibles for the three and six months ended June 30,
2004 is Metavante's $0.2 million write-off of a customer-related
intangible associated with an impaired product as previously discussed.

Other expense amounted to $54.4 million in the second quarter of 2004
compared to $39.9 million in the second quarter of 2003, an increase of
$14.5 million or 36.4%.  For the six months ended June 30, 2004, other
expense amounted to $104.5 million compared to $71.8 million for the six
months ended June 20, 2003, an increase of $32.7 million or 45.6%.  For
the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, the cost associated with
card plastic sales increased $3.6 million and $9.1 million, respectively
compared to the respective periods of the prior year.  This increase was
primarily attributable to Metavante's acquisition of Printing For Systems,
Inc.  Other expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003
includes the $2.0 million charge associated with redemption of all of the
Floating Rate Debentures held by its subsidiary, MVBI Capital Trust as
previously discussed.  Other expense for the six months ended June 30,
2004, includes the $4.9 million charge associated with the early
retirement of $55.0 million of higher cost fixed rate debt which occurred
during the first quarter of 2004.

 35
Other expense is affected by the capitalization of costs, net of
amortization and write-downs associated with software development and
customer data processing conversions.  Net software and conversion
amortization was $6.7 million in the second quarter of 2004 and in the
second quarter of 2003 net capitalization amounted to $5.2 million
resulting in an increase to other expense over the comparative quarters of
$11.9 million.  For the six months ended June 30, 2004, net software and
conversion amortization was $9.7 million and for the six months ended June
30, 2003, net capitalization amounted to $8.4 million resulting in an
increase to other expense over the comparative six month periods of $18.1
million.  Included in net software and conversion amortization for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2004 is Metavante's $4.9 million
write-off of capitalized software associated with an impaired product as
previously discussed.


                               INCOME TAXES
                               ------------

The provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2004
amounted to $78.4 million or 34.1% of pre-tax income compared to $68.7
million or 33.8% of pre-tax income for the three months ended June 30,
2003.  For the six months ended June 30, 2004, the provision for income
taxes amounted to $153.0 million or 33.9% of pre-tax income compared to
$134.3 million or 33.8% of pre-tax income for the six months ended June
30, 2003.


                     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
                     -------------------------------

Shareholders' equity was $3.43 billion or 9.3% of total consolidated
assets at June 30, 2004, compared to $3.33 billion or 9.7% of total
consolidated assets at December 31, 2003, and $3.24 billion or 9.5% of
total consolidated assets at June 30, 2003.  The increase at June 30, 2004
was primarily due to earnings net of dividends paid. At June 30, 2004, the
net loss in accumulated other comprehensive income amounted to $51.9
million which represent a negative change in accumulated other
comprehensive income of $54.6 million since December 31, 2003.  Net
accumulated other comprehensive income associated with available for sale
investment securities was a net gain of $41.8 million at December 31,
2003, compared to a net loss of $23.2 million at June 30, 2004, resulting
in a net loss of $65.0 million over the six month period.  The unrealized
loss associated with the change in fair value of the Corporation's
derivative financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges declined
$10.4 million since December 31, 2003, resulting in the net increase in
shareholders' equity.

The Corporation has a Stock Repurchase Program under which up to 12
million shares can be repurchased annually.  During the second quarter of
2004, no common shares were acquired under the program.  For the six
months ended June 30, 2004, 2.3 million common shares were acquired at an
aggregate cost of $88.5 million or an average price of $38.98 per common
share.  As a result of the Metavante acquisitions, the Corporation does
not expect that it will acquire common shares under the Stock Repurchase
Program in the near term.  See Item 2 in Part II of this Form 10-Q for the
monthly purchase activity relating to the Corporation's Stock Repurchase
Program in 2004.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, 0.15
million common shares were acquired at an aggregate cost of $4.4 million
or $29.66 per common share.

 36
The Corporation continues to have a strong capital base and its regulatory
capital ratios are significantly above the minimum requirements as shown
in the following tables.

M&I manages its liquidity to ensure that funds are available to each of
its banks to satisfy the cash flow requirements of depositors and
borrowers and to ensure the Corporation's own cash requirements are met.
M&I maintains liquidity by obtaining funds from several sources.

The Corporation's most readily available source of liquidity is its
investment portfolio.  Investment securities available for sale, which
totaled $5.1 billion at June 30, 2004, represent a highly accessible
source of liquidity.  The Corporation's portfolio of held-to-maturity
investment securities, which totaled $0.8 billion at June 30, 2004,
provides liquidity from maturities and amortization payments.  The
Corporation's mortgage loans held-for-sale provide additional liquidity.
These loans represent recently funded home mortgage loans that are
prepared for delivery to investors, which generally occurs within thirty
to ninety days after the loan has been funded.

Depositors within M&I's defined markets are another source of liquidity.
Core deposits (demand, savings, money market and consumer time deposits)
averaged $16.1 billion in the second quarter of 2004.  The Corporation's
banking affiliates may also access the federal funds markets or utilize
collateralized borrowings such as treasury demand notes or FHLB advances.

The banking affiliates may use wholesale deposits.  Wholesale deposits are
funds in the form of deposits generated through distribution channels
other than the Corporation's own banking branches.  These deposits allow
the Corporation's banking subsidiaries to gather funds across a national
geographic base and at pricing levels considered attractive, where the
underlying depositor may be retail or institutional.  Access to wholesale
deposits also provides the Corporation with the flexibility to not pursue
single service time deposit relationships in markets that have experienced
some unprofitable pricing levels.  Wholesale deposits averaged $5.8
billion in the second quarter of 2004.

The Corporation utilizes certain financing arrangements to meet its
balance sheet management, funding, liquidity, and market or credit risk
management needs.  The majority of these activities are basic term or
revolving securitization vehicles.  These vehicles are generally funded
through term-amortizing debt structures or with short-term commercial
paper designed to be paid off based on the underlying cash flows of the
assets securitized.  These vehicles provide access to funding sources
substantially separate from the general credit risk of the Corporation and
its subsidiaries.  See Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for
an update of the Corporation's securitization activities in the second
quarter of 2004.

 37
The Corporation's lead bank, M&I Marshall & Ilsley Bank ("the Bank"), has
implemented a bank note program which permits it to issue up to $7.0
billion of short-term and medium-term notes which are offered and sold
only to institutional investors.  This program is intended to enhance
liquidity by enabling the Bank to sell its debt instruments in private
markets in the future without the delays which would otherwise be
incurred.  Bank notes outstanding at June 30, 2004, amounted to $2.6
billion of which $0.6 billion is subordinated and qualifies as
supplementary capital for regulatory capital purposes.  There were no bank
notes issued during the second quarter of 2004.

The national capital markets represent a further source of liquidity to
M&I.  M&I has filed a shelf registration statement which is intended to
permit M&I to raise funds through sales of corporate debt securities with
a relatively short lead time.  Under the shelf registration statement, the
Corporation may issue up to $0.5 billion of medium-term Series E notes
with maturities ranging from 9 months to 30 years and at fixed or floating
rates.  At June 30, 2004, Series E notes issued amounted to $0.4 billion.
The Corporation may issue up to $0.5 billion of medium-term MiNotes with
maturities ranging from 9 months to 30 years and at fixed or floating
rates.  The MiNotes are issued in smaller denominations to attract retail
investors.  At June 30, 2004, MiNotes issued amounted to $0.1 billion.
Approximately $2.6 million of MiNotes were issued during the second
quarter of 2004.  Additionally, the Corporation has a commercial paper
program.  At June 30, 2004, commercial paper outstanding amounted to $0.3
billion.

During the second quarter of 2004, the Corporation filed a shelf
registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission which
will enable the Corporation to issue various securities, including debt
securities, common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares, purchase
contracts, units, warrants, and trust preferred securities,  up to an
aggregate amount of $3.0 billion.  On July 29, 2004, the Corporation
issued $600 million of senior notes and $400 million of Common SPACES
under the shelf registration statement.  See Note 14 Subsequent Events in
the Notes to Financial Statements.

Short-term borrowings represent contractual debt obligations with
maturities of one year or less and amounted to $2.2 billion at June 30,
2004.  Long-term borrowings amounted to $5.1 billion at June 30, 2004.
The scheduled maturities of long-term borrowings at June 30, 2004 are as
follows: $1.4 billion is due in less than one year; $1.6 billion is due in
one to three years; $0.9 billion is due in three to five years; and $1.2
billion is due in more than five years.  There have been no other
substantive changes to the Corporation's contractual obligations as
reported in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2003.


                      OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
                      ------------------------------

At June 30, 2004, there have been no substantive changes with respect to
the Corporation's off-balance sheet activities.  See Note 7 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements for an update of the Corporation's
securitization activities in the second quarter of 2004.  Based on the
off-balance sheet arrangements with which it is presently involved, the
Corporation does not believe that such off-balance sheet arrangements
either have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material impact to its
current or future financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or
capital.


                        CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
                        ----------------------------
The Corporation has established various accounting policies which govern
the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States in the preparation of the Corporation's consolidated financial
statements.  The significant accounting policies of the Corporation are
described in the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements
contained in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K and updated as
necessary in its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.  Certain accounting
policies involve significant judgments and assumptions by management that
may have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and
liabilities.  Management considers such accounting policies to be critical
accounting policies.  The judgments and assumptions used by management are
based on historical experience and other factors, which are believed to be
reasonable under the circumstances.  Because of the nature of judgments
and assumptions made by management, actual results could differ from these
judgments and estimates which could have a material impact on the carrying
values of assets and liabilities and the results of the operations of the
Corporation.  Management continues to consider the following to be those
accounting policies that require significant judgments and assumptions:

                   Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
                   -----------------------------------

The allowance for loan and lease losses represents management's estimate
of probable losses inherent in the Corporation's loan and lease portfolio.
Management evaluates the allowance each quarter to determine that it is
adequate to absorb these inherent losses.  This evaluation is supported by
a methodology that identifies estimated losses based on assessments of
individual problem loans and historical loss patterns of homogeneous loan
pools.  In addition, environmental factors, including economic conditions
and regulatory guidance, unique to each measurement date are also
considered.  This reserving methodology has the following components:

 38
Specific Reserve.  The Corporation's internal risk rating system is used
to identify loans and leases rated "Classified" as defined by regulatory
agencies.  In general, these loans have been internally identified as
credits requiring management's attention due to underlying problems in the
borrower's business or collateral concerns.  Subject to a minimum size, a
quarterly review of these loans is performed to identify the specific
reserve necessary to be allocated to each of these loans.   This analysis
considers expected future cash flows, the value of collateral and also
other factors that may impact the borrower's ability to make payments when
due.  Included in this group are those nonaccrual or renegotiated loans
that meet the criteria as being "impaired" under the definition in SFAS
114.  A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it
is probable that a creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due
according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.  For impaired
loans, impairment is measured using one of three alternatives: (1) the
present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's
effective interest rate; (2) the loan's observable market price, if
available; or (3) the fair value of the collateral for collateral
dependent loans and loans for which foreclosure is deemed to be probable.

Collective Loan Impairment. This component of the allowance for loan and
lease losses is comprised of two elements.  First, the Corporation makes a
significant number of loans and leases, which due to their underlying
similar characteristics, are assessed for loss as homogeneous pools.
Included in the homogeneous pools are loans and leases from the retail
sector and commercial loans under a certain size, which have been excluded
from the specific reserve allocation previously discussed.  The
Corporation segments the pools by type of loan or lease and using
historical loss information, estimates a loss reserve for each pool.

The second element reflects management's recognition of the uncertainty
and imprecision underlying the process of estimating losses.  Based on
management's judgment, reserves are allocated to industry segments or
product types due to environmental conditions unique to the measurement
period. Consideration is given to both internal and external environmental
factors such as economic conditions in certain geographic or industry
segments of the portfolio, economic trends in the retail lending sector,
risk profile, and portfolio composition.  Reserves are allocated using
estimates of loss exposure that management has identified based on these
economic trends or conditions.  The internal risk rating system is then
used to identify those loans within these industry segments that based on
financial, payment or collateral performance, warrant closer ongoing
monitoring by management.  The specific loans mentioned earlier are
excluded from this analysis.

The following factors were taken into consideration in determining the
adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses at June 30, 2004:

      In general, the Corporation's borrowing customers appear to be
      successfully managing their businesses through the slower economic
      conditions.  While there appear to be some signs of improvement in
      the economy and the Corporation's customer base is beginning to see
      some signs of increased business activity, the customers remain
      cautious of there being any substantive increase in revenues until
      later in the year.  As a result, the recession's lagging impact may
      continue to affect the operating performance of M&I's customers in
      the near term.

      At June 30, 2004, special reserves continue to be carried for
      exposures to manufacturing, healthcare, production agriculture
      (including dairy and cropping operations), truck transportation, and
      the airline and travel industries.  The majority of the commercial
      charge-offs incurred during the past two years were in these
      industry segments.  While most loans in these categories are still
      performing, the Corporation continues to believe these sectors have
      been more adversely affected by the economic slowdown.  Reduced
      revenues causing a declining utilization of the industry's capacity
      levels have impacted manufacturing.  As a result, collateral values
      and the amounts realized through the sale or liquidation of
      manufacturing plant and equipment have declined.

      During the second quarter of 2004, the Corporation's commitments to
      Shared National Credits were approximately $2.4 billion with usage
      averaging around 37%.  Many of these borrowers are in industries
      impacted by the recent months economic climate.  In addition, many
      of the Corporation's largest charge-offs have come from Shared
      National Credits.  Approximately $3.1 million of the net charge-offs
      in 2003 came from Shared National Credits.  Although these factors
      result in an increased risk profile, as of June 30, 2004, Shared
      National Credit nonperforming loans were approximately 0.05% and
      0.07% of this segment's total commitments and outstandings,
      respectively.  The Corporation's exposure to Shared National Credits
      is monitored closely given the economic uncertainty as well as this
      segment's loss experience.

      The Corporation's primary lending areas are Wisconsin, Arizona,
      Minnesota and Missouri.  The acquisitions in Minnesota and Missouri
      continue to represent relatively new geographic regions for the
      Corporation.  Each of the regions has cultural and environmental
      factors that are unique to them.  Although mitigated by the
      implementation of the Corporation's credit underwriting and
      monitoring processes, the uncertainty regarding the inherent losses
      in their respective loan and lease portfolios continues to present
      increased risks.

  39
      At June 30, 2004, nonperforming loans and leases amounted to $145.0
      million or 0.53% of consolidated loans and leases compared to $156.1
      million or 0.60% of consolidated loans and leases at March 31, 2004
      and $172.8 million or 0.69% of consolidated loans and leases at
      December 31, 2003.  Nonaccrual loans and leases have been the
      primary source of the decrease in nonperforming loans and leases
      since December 31, 2003.  The net decrease was primarily due to
      continued reductions and positive resolutions in several portfolio
      segments and improving credit conditions throughout the loan and
      lease portfolios.

      Net charge-offs amounted to $5.0 million or 0.08% of average loans
      and leases in the second quarter of 2004 compared to $4.9 million or
      0.08% of average loans and leases in the first quarter of 2004 and
      $8.3 million or 0.13% of average loans and leases in the fourth
      quarter of 2003.  The net charge-off activity experienced in the
      first and second quarters of 2004 are the lowest levels experienced
      by the Corporation in any individual quarter since the second
      quarter of 2000.  This lower level of net charge-offs in the first
      six months of 2004 has to some extent been the result of higher than
      normal recoveries.  Based on the status of some of the larger
      charge-offs recognized in recent quarters, management expects
      recoveries will likely return to a lower level in future periods.

      Credit quality continued to show improvement as evidenced by the
      decline in nonperforming loans and leases and net charge-offs which
      were lower than expected based on the state of the economy in the
      markets the Corporation serves.  In the 2003 Annual Report on Form
      10-K, the Corporation disclosed that it expects net charge-offs in
      2004 to range from 0.15% to 0.20% for the year and nonperfoming
      loans and leases as a percent of total loans and leases outstanding
      to be in the range of 70-80 basis points.  Based on the first six
      month's experience, it appears that the Corporation's credit quality
      ratios may be at the low end of these ranges in the near term.  At
      the present time, there is no specific industry that is of immediate
      concern; however, management continues to believe that the long-term
      impact of the recent recession may still provide some unanticipated
      results within the loan and lease portfolio and some degree of
      stress and uncertainty continues to exist.

Based on the above loss estimates, senior lending and financial management
determine their best estimate of the required reserve.  Management's
evaluation of the factors described above resulted in an allowance for
loan and lease losses of $357.9 million or 1.32% of loans and leases
outstanding at June 30, 2004 compared to $353.7 million or 1.36% of loans
and leases outstanding at March 31, 2004.  The resulting provision for
loan and lease losses was the amount required to establish the allowance
for loan and lease losses to the required level after considering charge-
offs and recoveries.  Management recognizes there are significant
estimates in the process and the ultimate losses could be significantly
different from those currently estimated.

The Corporation has not substantively changed any aspect to its overall
approach in the determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses.
There have been no material changes in assumptions or estimation
techniques as compared to prior periods that impacted the determination of
the current period allowance.


                 Capitalized Software and Conversion Costs
                 -----------------------------------------

Direct costs associated with the production of computer software that will
be licensed externally or used in a service bureau environment are
capitalized.  Capitalization of such costs is subject to strict accounting
policy criteria, although the appropriate time to initiate capitalization
requires management judgment.  Once the specific capitalized project is
put into production, the software cost is amortized over its estimated
useful life, generally four years.  Each quarter, the Corporation performs
net realizable value tests to ensure the assets are recoverable.  Such
tests require management judgment as to the future sales and profitability
of a particular product which involves, in some cases, multi-year
projections.  Technology changes and changes in customer requirements can
have a significant impact on the recoverability of these assets and can be
difficult to predict.  Should significant adverse changes occur, estimates
of useful life may have to be revised or write-offs would be required to
recognize impairment.  For the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003,
the amount of software costs capitalized amounted to $10.4 million and
$16.6 million, respectively.  Amortization expense of software costs
amounted to $16.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004
compared to $10.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003.  For
the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, the amount of software costs
capitalized amounted to $20.4 million and $32.0 million, respectively.
Amortization expense of software costs amounted to $28.1 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to $21.5 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2003.

 40
Based on a strategic product review performed during the second quarter of
2004, Metavante determined that a certain product had limited growth
potential and that future marketing of the product to new customers should
be discontinued.  As a result of the strategic product review and net
realizable value test on this product, Metavante determined that the
capitalized software associated with the product was impaired and recorded
a write-down. Amortization expense of software costs for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2004, includes $4.9 million for the write-down of
the capitalized software costs associated with the impaired product.

Direct costs associated with customer system conversions to the data
processing operations are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line
basis over the terms, generally five to seven years, of the related
servicing contracts.

Capitalization only occurs when management is satisfied that such costs
are recoverable through future operations or penalties (buyout fees) in
case of early termination.  For the three months ended June 30, 2004 and
2003, the amount of conversion costs capitalized amounted to $2.8 million
and $3.6 million, respectively.  Amortization expense of conversion costs
amounted to $3.2 million and $4.2 million for the three months ended June
30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2004
and 2003, the amount of conversion costs capitalized amounted to $4.4
million and $6.2 million, respectively.  Amortization expense of
conversion costs amounted to $6.5 million and $8.3 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

Net unamortized costs were ($ in millions):

                                -----------   -----------
                                      
      Software                 $     139.1   $     153.1

      Total                    $     167.7   $     186.9
                                ===========   ===========


The Corporation has not substantively changed any aspect to its overall
approach in the determination of the amount of costs that are capitalized
for software development or conversion activities.  There have been no
material changes in assumptions or estimation techniques as compared to
prior periods that impacted the determination of the periodic amortization
of such costs.


                Financial Asset Sales and Securitizations
                -----------------------------------------

The Corporation utilizes certain financing arrangements to meet its
balance sheet management, funding, liquidity, and market or credit risk
management needs.  The majority of these activities are basic term or
revolving securitization vehicles.  These vehicles are generally funded
through term-amortizing debt structures or with short-term commercial
paper designed to be paid off based on the underlying cash flows of the
assets securitized.  These financing entities are contractually limited to
a narrow range of activities that facilitate the transfer of or access to
various types of assets or financial instruments.  In certain situations,
the Corporation provides liquidity and/or loss protection agreements.  In
determining whether the financing entity should be consolidated, the
Corporation considers whether the entity is a qualifying special-purpose
entity (QSPE) as defined in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets
and Extinguishments of  Liabilities.  For non-consolidation a QSPE must be
demonstrably distinct, have significantly limited permitted activities,
hold assets that are restricted to transferred financial assets and
related assets, and can sell or dispose of non-cash financial assets only
in response to specified conditions.

In December 2003, the Corporation adopted FASB Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN
46R"), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (revised December
2003).  This interpretation addresses consolidation by business
enterprises of variable interest entities and explains how to identify
variable interest entities and how an entity assesses its interests in a
variable interest entity to decide whether to consolidate that entity.
FIN 46R requires existing unconsolidated variable interest entities to be
consolidated by their primary beneficiaries if the entities do not
effectively disperse risks among parties involved.  Variable interest
entities that effectively disperse risks will not be consolidated unless a
single party holds an interest or combination of interests that
effectively recombines risks that were previously dispersed.  Transferors
to QSPEs and "grandfathered" QSPEs subject to the reporting requirements
of SFAS 140 are outside the scope of FIN 46R and do not consolidate those
entities.

With respect to its existing securitization activities, the Corporation
does not believe FIN 46R impacts its consolidated financial statements
because its transfers are generally to QSPEs.

 41
The Corporation sells financial assets in a two-step process that results
in a surrender of control over the assets as evidenced by true-sale
opinions from legal counsel, to unconsolidated entities that securitize
the assets.  The Corporation retains interests in the securitized assets
in the form of interest-only strips and a cash reserve account.  Gain or
loss on sale of the assets depends in part on the carrying amount assigned
to the assets sold allocated between the asset sold and retained interests
based on their relative fair values at the date of transfer.  The value of
the retained interests is based on the present value of expected cash
flows estimated using management's best estimates of the key assumptions-
credit losses, prepayment speeds, forward yield curves, and discount rates
commensurate with the risks involved.  Actual results can differ from
expected results.

The Corporation reviews the carrying values of the retained interests
monthly to determine if there is a decline in value that is other than
temporary and periodically reviews the propriety of the assumptions used
based on current historical experience as well as the sensitivities of the
carrying value of the retained interests to adverse changes in the key
assumptions.  The Corporation believes that its estimates result in a
reasonable estimate of fair value of the retained interests.

The Corporation periodically sells automobile loans to an unconsolidated
multi-seller special purpose entity commercial paper conduit in
securitization transactions in which servicing responsibilities and
subordinated interests are retained.  The outstanding balances of
automobile loans sold in these securitization transactions were $1,176.1
million at June 30, 2004.  At June 30, 2004, the carrying amount of
retained interests amounted to $57.5 million.

The Corporation also sells, from time to time, debt securities classified
as available for sale that are highly rated to an unconsolidated
bankruptcy remote QSPE whose activities are limited to issuing highly
rated asset-backed commercial paper with maturities up to 180 days which
is used to finance the purchase of the investment securities.  The Bank
provides liquidity back-up in the form of Liquidity Purchase Agreements.
In addition, the Bank acts as counterparty to interest rate swaps that
enable the QSPE to hedge its interest rate risk.  Such swaps are
designated as free-standing derivative financial instruments in the
Corporation's Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, the Bank, as
administrator of the QSPE, is required to sell interests in the securities
funded by the QSPE to the Bank as the liquidity purchaser under the
liquidity agreements, if at any time (after giving effect to any issuance
of new commercial paper notes and the receipt of payments under any swap
agreement) the QSPE has insufficient funds to repay any maturing
commercial paper note and the Bank, as liquidity agent, has received a
notice of such deficiency.  The Bank, as the liquidity provider, will be
obligated to purchase interests in such securities under the terms of the
liquidity agreement to repay the maturing commercial paper notes unless
(i) after giving effect to such purchase, the aggregate of securities
purchased under the relevant liquidity agreement would exceed the
aggregate maximum liquidity purchase amount under such liquidity agreement
or (ii) certain bankruptcy events with respect to the QSPE have occurred;
provided that the Bank is not required to purchase any defaulted security.
For this purpose, a defaulted security is any security that is rated below
"Caa2" by Moody's and below "CCC" by Standard & Poors.  To date, the Bank
has never acquired interests in any securities under the terms of the
liquidity agreements.

A subsidiary of the Bank has entered into interest rate swaps with the
QSPE designed to counteract the interest rate risk associated with third
party beneficial interests (commercial paper) and the transferred assets.
The beneficial interests in the form of commercial paper have been issued
by the QSPE to parties other than the Bank and its subsidiary or any other
affiliates.  The notional amounts do not exceed the amount of beneficial
interests.  The swap agreements do not provide the QSPE or its
administrative agent any decision-making authority other than those
specified in the standard ISDA Master Agreement.

At June 30, 2004, highly rated investment securities in the amount of
$314.0 million were outstanding in the QSPE to support the outstanding
commercial paper.

                                Income Taxes
                                ------------

Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method.
Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for
the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities
and their respective tax basis.  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.  The effect on tax assets and liabilities of a
change in tax rates is recognized in the income statement in the period
that includes the enactment date.

 42
The determination of current and deferred income taxes is based on complex
analyses of many factors, including interpretation of Federal and state
income tax laws, the difference between tax and financial reporting basis
of assets and liabilities (temporary differences), estimates of amounts
currently due or owed such as the timing of reversals of temporary
differences and current accounting standards.  The Federal and state
taxing authorities who make assessments based on their determination of
tax laws periodically review the Corporation's interpretation of Federal
and state income tax laws.  Tax liabilities could differ significantly
from the estimates and interpretations used in determining the current and
deferred income tax liabilities based on the completion of taxing
authority examinations.


                        FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
                        --------------------------

Items 2 and 3 of this Form 10-Q, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Position and Results of Operations" and "Quantitative and
Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk," respectively, contain forward-
looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Such forward-looking
statements include, without limitation, statements regarding expected
financial and operating activities and results which are preceded by words
such as "expects", "anticipates" or "believes".  Such statements are subject
to important factors that could cause the Corporation's actual results to
differ materially from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements.
These factors include those referenced in Item 1, Business, of the
Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ending December 31,
2003 under the heading "Forward-Looking Statements" and as may be described
from time to time in the Corporation's subsequent SEC filings, and such
factors are incorporated herein by reference.


  ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The following updated information should be read in conjunction with the
Corporation's 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  Updated information regarding
the Corporation's use of derivative financial instruments is contained in
Note 11, Notes to Financial Statements contained in Item 1 herein.

Market risk arises from exposure to changes in interest rates, exchange
rates, commodity prices, and other relevant market rate or price risk.  The
Corporation faces market risk through trading and other than trading
activities.  While market risk that arises from trading activities in the
form of foreign exchange and interest rate risk is immaterial to the
Corporation, market risk from other than trading activities in the form of
interest rate risk is measured and managed through a number of methods.


    Interest Rate Risk
    ------------------
The Corporation uses financial modeling techniques to identify potential
changes in income under a variety of possible interest rate scenarios.
Financial institutions, by their nature, bear interest rate and liquidity
risk as a necessary part of the business of managing financial assets and
liabilities.  The Corporation has designed strategies to limit these risks
within prudent parameters and identify appropriate risk/reward tradeoffs in
the financial structure of the balance sheet.

The financial models identify the specific cash flows, repricing timing and
embedded option characteristics of the assets and liabilities held by the
Corporation.  Policies are in place to assure that neither earnings nor fair
value at risk exceed appropriate limits.  The use of a limited array of
derivative financial instruments has allowed the Corporation to achieve the
desired balance sheet repricing structure while simultaneously meeting the
desired objectives of both its borrowing and depositing customers.

The models used include measures of the expected repricing characteristics
of administered rate (NOW, savings and money market accounts) and non-rate
related products (demand deposit accounts, other assets and other
liabilities).  These measures recognize the relative insensitivity of these
accounts to changes in market interest rates, as demonstrated through current
and historical experiences.  However, during the second quarter of 2003, the
Corporation increased the proportion of these accounts modeled as rate
sensitive, in order to recognize the instability of some of the recent growth
in balances in these accounts.  This modeling treatment will be maintained
until the incremental balances can be observed across a more complete
interest rate cycle.  In addition to contractual payment information for most
other assets and liabilities, the models also include estimates of expected
prepayment characteristics for those items that are likely to materially
change their payment structures in different rate environments, including
residential mortgage products, certain commercial and commercial real estate
loans and certain mortgage-related securities.  Estimates for these
sensitivities are based on industry assessments and are substantially driven
by the differential between the contractual coupon of the item and current
market rates for similar products.

This information is incorporated into a model that allows the projection of
future income levels in several different interest rate environments.
Earnings at risk is calculated by modeling income in an environment where
rates remain constant, and comparing this result to income in a different
rate environment, and then dividing this difference by the Corporation's
budgeted operating income before taxes for the calendar year.  Since future
interest rate moves are difficult to predict, the following table presents
two potential scenarios - a gradual increase of 100bp across the entire yield
curve over the course of a year (+25bp per quarter), and a gradual decrease
of 100bp across the entire yield curve over the course of a year (-25bp per
quarter) for the balance sheet as of the indicated dates:


                                             Impact to Annual Pretax Income as of
                            ------------------------------------------------------------------
                               June 30,     March 31,  December 31, September 30,   June 30,
                                 2004          2004        2003         2003           2003
                            ------------- ------------ ------------ ------------- ------------
Hypothetical Change in Interest Rate
------------------------------------
   100 basis point gradual:

                                                                   
      Rise in rates                (0.6)%       (0.7)%       (0.6)%       (1.1)%       (0.6)%

      Decline in rates              0.6 %       (2.1)%       (1.8)%       (1.6)%       (2.0)%


These results are based solely on the modeled parallel changes in market
rates, and do not reflect the earnings sensitivity that may arise from other
factors such as changes in the shape of the yield curve and the changes in
spread between key market rates.  The gradual 100bp shift down changed from
last quarter due primarily to the rise in short-term rates.  In the modeling
process, one of the significant assumptions in the repricing characteristics
of administered rate accounts is that we would not be able to drop rates
below a certain level.  In the gradual decrease scenario, this had a negative
impact.  Now that short-term rates have risen, those floors have less of a
negative impact on our position.  These results also do not include any
management action to mitigate potential income variances within the
simulation process.  Such action could potentially include, but would not be
limited to, adjustments to the repricing characteristics of any on- or off-
balance sheet item with regard to short-term rate projections and current
market value assessments.

Actual results will differ from simulated results due to the timing,
magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes, as well as changes in
market conditions and management strategies.

Another component of interest rate risk is measuring the fair value at risk
for a given change in market interest rates.  The Corporation also uses
computer modeling techniques to determine the present value of all asset and
liability cash flows (both on- and off-balance sheet), adjusted for
prepayment expectations, using a market discount rate.  The net change in the
present value of the asset and liability cash flows in different market rate
environments is the amount of fair value at risk from those rate movements.
As of June 30, 2004, the fair value of equity at risk for a gradual 100bp
shift in rates was no more than 2.0% of the market value of the Corporation.

    Equity Risk
    -----------
In addition to interest rate risk, the Corporation incurs market risk in the
form of equity risk. M&I's Capital Markets Group invests in private, medium-
sized companies to help establish new businesses or recapitalize existing
ones.  Exposure to the change in equity values for the companies that are
held in their portfolio exists, however, fair values are difficult to
determine until an actual sale or liquidation transaction actually occurs.

As of June 30, 2004, M&I Trust Services administered $70.1 billion in assets
and directly managed a portfolio of $17.1 billion.  Exposure exists to
changes in equity values due to the fact that fee income is partially based
on equity balances.  While this exposure is present, quantification remains
difficult due to the number of other variables affecting fee income.
Interest rate changes can also have an effect on fee income for the above
stated reasons.


  ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed
by us under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the
SEC's rules and forms.  We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision
and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive
Officer and President and our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial
Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure
controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act.  Based
on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and President and our
Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our
disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period
covered by this report.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting
identified in connection with the evaluation discussed above that occurred
during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
