           Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
                               June 30, 2002



Note 1.  Principles of Consolidation

American General Finance, Inc. will be referred to as "AGFI" or
collectively with its subsidiaries, whether directly or indirectly
owned, as the "Company" or "we".  We prepared our condensed
consolidated financial statements using accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States for interim periods.  The statements
include the accounts of AGFI and its subsidiaries, all of which are
wholly owned.  We eliminated all intercompany items.  AGFI is a wholly
owned subsidiary of American General Corporation (American General).
American General is a wholly owned subsidiary of American International
Group, Inc. (AIG).



Note 2.  Adjustments and Reclassifications

We made all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments, that we considered necessary for a fair statement of the
Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.  These
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.

To conform to the 2002 presentation, we reclassified certain items in
the prior period.



Note 3.  Accounting Change

On January 1, 2002, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets."  SFAS
142 provides that goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite
lives are no longer to be amortized.  These assets are to be reviewed
for impairment annually, or more frequently if impairment indicators
are present.  Separable intangible assets that have finite lives will
continue to be amortized over their useful lives.  The amortization
provisions of SFAS 142 apply to goodwill and intangible assets acquired
after June 30, 2001.  Amortization of goodwill and intangible assets
acquired prior to July 1, 2001 continued through December 31, 2001.
During first quarter 2002, we determined that the required impairment
testing related to the Company's goodwill and other intangible assets
did not require a write-down of any such assets.

The impact of goodwill amortization on net income was as follows:

Note 6.  Derivative Financial Instruments

Our principal borrowing subsidiary is American General Finance
Corporation (AGFC), a wholly owned subsidiary of AGFI. To protect
against interest rate fluctuations, AGFC uses derivative financial
instruments in managing the cost of its debt.  AGFC has generally
limited its use of derivative financial instruments to interest rate
swap agreements to reduce its exposure to market interest rate
increases by synthetically converting certain short-term or floating-
rate debt to a long-term fixed-rate.

We recognize the fair values of interest rate swap agreements in the
consolidated balance sheets.  Our interest rate swap agreements are
designated and qualify as cash flow hedges.  We report the effective
portion of the gain or loss on the instruments as a component of other
comprehensive income.  We do not have any ineffectiveness to report in
the consolidated statements of income.

As an alternative to fixed-rate term debt, our interest rate swap
agreements did not have a material effect on other revenues, interest
expense, or net income during the six months ended June 30, 2002 or
2001.



Note 7.  Segment Information

We have two business segments: consumer finance and insurance.  Our
segments are defined by the type of financial service product offered.
The consumer finance segment makes home equity loans, originates
secured and unsecured consumer loans, extends lines of credit, and
purchases retail sales contracts from, and provides revolving retail
services for, retail merchants.  We also purchase private label
receivables originated by an affiliate of ours under a participation
agreement.  To supplement our lending and retail sales financing
activities, we purchase portfolios of real estate loans, non-real
estate loans, and retail sales finance receivables.  We also offer
credit and non-credit insurance to our consumer finance customers.  The
insurance segment writes and assumes credit and non-credit insurance
through products that are offered principally by the consumer finance
segment.

Note 8.  Legal Contingencies

Satellite Dish Operations Bankruptcy

In August 1999, a subsidiary of the Company, A.G. Financial Service
Center, Inc. (Financial Service Center), formerly named American
General Financial Center, filed a voluntary petition to reorganize
under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code with the United
States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Indiana.  The
decision to reorganize was necessitated by the judgment rendered
against Financial Service Center by a Mississippi state court in May
1999 in the amount of $167 million.  The filing for reorganization
under Chapter 11 was limited to Financial Service Center and was
intended to provide a fair and orderly process for managing the claims
against Financial Service Center.  Prior to the bankruptcy filing,
Financial Service Center had assets of approximately $7 million.

The plan of reorganization was confirmed by the bankruptcy court in
February 2001 and distribution under the plan is substantially
complete.  Certain creditors have appealed the confirmation of the
plan, but we do not expect their appeal to prevail.  We expect our
remaining recorded liability related to this matter to be sufficient to
cover the costs of the plan of reorganization.


Other

AGFI and certain of its subsidiaries are also parties to various other
lawsuits and proceedings, including certain class action claims,
arising in the ordinary course of business.  In addition, many of these
proceedings are pending in jurisdictions that permit damage awards
disproportionate to the actual economic damages alleged to have been
incurred.  Based upon information presently available, we believe that
the total amounts that will ultimately be paid arising from these
lawsuits and proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our
consolidated results of operations or financial position.  However, the
frequency of large damage awards, including large punitive damage
awards that bear little or no relation to actual economic damages
<PAGE> 11

incurred by plaintiffs in some jurisdictions, continues to create the
potential for an unpredictable judgment in any given suit.



Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
         and Results of Operations.


                      FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our other publicly available
documents may include, and the Company's officers and representatives
may from time to time make, statements which may constitute "forward-
looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  These statements are not historical
facts but instead represent only our belief regarding future events,
many of which are inherently uncertain and outside of our control.
These statements may address, among other things, the Company's
strategy for growth, product development, regulatory approvals, market
position, financial results and reserves.  The Company's actual results
and financial condition may differ, possibly materially, from the
anticipated results and financial condition indicated in these forward-
looking statements.  Forward-looking statements involve risks and
uncertainties including, but not limited to, the following:

     *  changes in general economic conditions, including the
        performance of financial markets, interest rates, and the
        level of personal bankruptcies;
     *  customer responsiveness to both products and distribution
        channels or changes in contractual delinquencies, collateral
        values, or credit losses;
     *  competitive, regulatory, accounting, or tax changes that
        affect the cost of, or demand for, our products or the manner
        in which we conduct business;
     *  adverse litigation results or resolution of litigation or any
        governmental inquiries or investigations;
     *  the formation of strategic alliances or business combinations
        among our competitors or our business partners;
     *  changes in our ability to attract and retain employees or key
        executives; and
     *  natural events affecting Company facilities.

Readers are also directed to other risks and uncertainties discussed in
other documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
We are under no obligation to (and expressly disclaim any such
obligation to) update or alter any forward-looking statement, whether
written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a
result of new information, future events or otherwise.



                     CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

We believe the amount of the allowance for finance receivable losses is
the most significant estimate we make.  We establish the allowance for
finance receivable losses primarily through the provision for finance
receivable losses charged to expense.  We periodically evaluate our
finance receivable portfolio to determine the appropriate level of the
allowance for finance receivable losses.  This policy is discussed in
greater detail in Note 2. of the Notes to Consolidated Financial
<PAGE> 12

Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2001.  In our opinion, the allowance is adequate to absorb
losses inherent in our existing portfolio.



                    LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity

Our sources of funds include operations, issuances of long-term debt,
short-term borrowings in the commercial paper market, and borrowings
from banks under credit facilities.  AGFI has also historically
received capital contributions from its parent to support finance
receivable growth and maintain targeted leverage.

Principal sources and uses of cash were as follows:

                                                Six Months Ended
                                                    June 30,

                                             (dollars in millions)
Principal sources of cash:
  Operations                                 $359.8         $383.5
  Net issuance of debt                         51.3           80.5

  Total                                      $411.1         $464.0


Principal uses of cash:
  Net originations and purchases
    of finance receivables                   $208.8         $214.0
  Dividends paid                              147.0          127.8

  Total                                      $355.8         $341.8


We believe that our overall sources of liquidity will continue to be
sufficient to satisfy our foreseeable financial obligations and
operational requirements.  The principal risk factors that could
decrease our sources of liquidity are delinquent payments from our
customers and our inability to access capital markets.  The principal
factors that could increase our cash needs are significant increases in
net originations and purchases of finance receivables.  We intend to
mitigate liquidity risk factors by continuing to operate the Company
within the following strategies:

     *  maintain a finance receivable portfolio comprised mostly of
        real estate loans, which generally represent a lower risk of
        customer non-payment;
     *  originate and monitor finance receivables with our proprietary
        credit risk management system;
     *  maintain an investment securities portfolio of predominantly
        investment grade, liquid securities; and
     *  maintain a capital structure appropriate to our asset base.
<PAGE> 13

Consistent execution of our business strategies should result in
continued profitability, strong credit ratings, and investor
confidence.  These results should allow continued access to capital
markets for issuances of our commercial paper and term debt.  We
maintain committed bank credit facilities to provide an additional
source of liquidity for needs potentially not met through capital
markets.


Capital Resources
                                                   June 30,
                                             2002           2001
                                            (dollars in millions)

Long-term debt                             $ 7,010.5     $ 5,919.9

Deposits                                         -           103.0

Total debt                                  11,208.6      10,915.4
Equity                                       1,363.7       1,608.5

Total capital                              $12,572.3     $12,523.9

Net finance receivables                    $12,041.8     $11,845.7
Debt to tangible equity ratio                  8.88x         7.50x


Our capital varies with the level of net finance receivables.  The
capital mix of debt and equity is based primarily upon maintaining
leverage that supports cost-effective funding.

We issue a combination of fixed-rate debt, principally long-term, and
floating-rate debt, principally short-term.  AGFC obtains our fixed-
rate funding through public issuances of long-term debt with maturities
generally ranging from two to ten years.  AGFI and AGFC obtain most of
our floating-rate funding effectively through sales and refinancing of
commercial paper.  Commercial paper, with maturities ranging from 1 to
270 days, is sold to banks, insurance companies, corporations, and
other accredited investors.  AGFC also sells extendible commercial
notes with initial maturities of up to 90 days, which may be extended
by AGFC to 390 days.  At June 30, 2002, commercial paper included $49.8
million of extendible commercial notes.

Until fourth quarter 2001, AGFI paid dividends to (or received capital
contributions from) American General to manage our leverage of debt to
tangible equity (equity less goodwill and accumulated other
comprehensive income) to 7.5 to 1.  At the end of fourth quarter 2001,
following discussions with credit rating agencies, we increased our
leverage target to 9.0 to 1.  This increase was based on our success
with managing credit risk and maintaining a lower risk finance
receivable portfolio.  We intend to continue these practices.  AGFI's
ability to pay dividends is substantially dependent on the receipt of
dividends or other funds from its subsidiaries, primarily AGFC.  An
AGFC financing agreement limits the amount of dividends AGFC may pay.
This agreement has not prevented us from managing our capital to
targeted leverage.
<PAGE> 14

Credit Facilities

We participate in credit facilities to support the issuance of
commercial paper and to provide an additional source of funds for
operating requirements.  At June 30, 2002, AGFI and AGFC were eligible
borrowers under committed credit facilities extended to American
General and certain of its subsidiaries (the "shared committed
facilities").  At June 30, 2002, the shared committed facilities
totaled $5.2 billion and annual commitment fees ranged between 0.04%
and 0.06%.  We paid only an allocated portion of the commitment fees
for the shared committed facilities.  In July 2002, AGFC, AGFI, and
American General terminated these shared committed credit facilities
and AGFC established its own committed credit facilities totaling $3.0
billion, including a facility under which AGFI is an eligible borrower
for up to $300 million. The annual commitment fees for the new
facilities currently average 0.07% based upon AGFC's long-term credit
ratings.

At June 30, 2002, AGFI and certain of its subsidiaries also have
uncommitted credit facilities totaling $171 million which could be
increased depending upon lender ability to participate its loans under
the facilities.

Available borrowings under all facilities are reduced by any
outstanding borrowings.  There were no amounts outstanding at June 30,
2002 or June 30, 2001.  AGFC guarantees its subsidiary borrowings under
uncommitted credit facilities.  AGFC does not guarantee any borrowings
of AGFI.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information on
the results of the Company's business segments.

Net income for 2002 did not include goodwill amortization due to the
adoption of SFAS 142 on January 1, 2002.  Net income included goodwill
amortization of $2.3 million for the three months and $4.3 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2001.

Factors that specifically affected the Company's operating results were
as follows:


Finance Charges
                           Three Months Ended       Six Months Ended
                                June 30,                June 30,
                           2002          2001      2002          2001
                                      (dollars in millions)

Finance charges           $   422.9  $   430.7    $   846.8  $   851.0
Average net receivables   $11,951.2  $11,788.3    $11,947.0  $11,763.0
Yield                        14.19%     14.64%       14.27%     14.56%


Finance charges decreased $7.8 million, or 2%, for the three months
ended June 30, 2002 and remained near the same for the six months ended
June 30, 2002 when compared to the same periods in 2001.  The decrease
for the three months ended June 30, 2002 when compared to the same
period in 2001 was due to lower yield, partially offset by higher
average net receivables.

Average net receivables by type were as follows:

                           Three Months Ended       Six Months Ended
                                June 30,                June 30,

Real estate loans         $ 7,792.2  $ 7,451.4    $ 7,730.0  $ 7,385.3
Non-real estate loans       2,810.9    2,956.5      2,835.3    2,968.2
Retail sales finance        1,348.1    1,380.4      1,381.7    1,409.5

  Total                   $11,951.2  $11,788.3    $11,947.0  $11,763.0


Average net receivables increased $162.9 million, or 1%, for the three
months ended June 30, 2002 and $184.0 million, or 2%, for the six
months ended June 30, 2002 when compared to the same periods in 2001
reflecting real estate loan growth.  We tightened underwriting
standards last year and discontinued relationships with unprofitable
retail merchants.  The low interest rate environment has caused higher
than normal real estate loan liquidations, although this trend has
slowed recently.  These factors, coupled with a sluggish economy since
mid-2001, have limited finance receivable growth.

Yield by type of finance receivable was as follows:

                           Three Months Ended       Six Months Ended
                                June 30,                June 30,

Real estate loans         11.35%        11.98%    11.38%        11.86%
Non-real estate loans     21.77         21.55     21.86         21.55
Retail sales finance      14.78         14.24     14.85         13.97

Yield decreased 45 basis points for the three months ended June 30,
2002 and 29 basis points for the six months ended June 30, 2002 when
compared to the same periods in 2001 reflecting a lower real estate
loan yield resulting from the low interest rate environment.

  percentage of average
  net receivables         1.61%          1.70%    1.57%          1.67%


Insurance revenues decreased $2.1 million, or 4%, for the three months
ended June 30, 2002 and $4.7 million, or 5%, for the six months ended
June 30, 2002 when compared to the same periods in 2001 primarily due
to lower earned premiums.  Earned premiums decreased due to lower
premium volume.

Insurance revenues as a percentage of average net receivables decreased
for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2002 when compared
to the same periods in 2001 reflecting a higher proportion of average
net receivables that are real estate loans.  Our experience is that
customers purchase fewer insurance products on real estate loans than
on non-real estate loans.


Other Revenues

Investment revenue        $21.2          $19.6    $44.2          $44.1


Other revenues increased $2.3 million, or 11%, for the three months
ended June 30, 2002 and $.5 million, or 1%, for the six months ended
June 30, 2002 when compared to the same periods in 2001.  The increase
in other revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2002 was
primarily due to higher investment revenue and service fee income with
a non-subsidiary affiliate.  The increase in other revenues for the six
months ended June 30, 2002 was primarily due to service fee income with
a non-subsidiary affiliate.  The increase in investment revenue for the
three months ended June 30, 2002 when compared to the same period in
2001 was primarily due to lower realized losses.  Investment revenue
for the six months ended June 30, 2002 remained near the same primarily
due to lower realized losses, offset by the disposition of American
General Bank, FSB in third quarter 2001.

Interest expense decreased $23.0 million, or 14%, for the three months
ended June 30, 2002 and $58.0 million, or 17%, for the six months ended
June 30, 2002 when compared to the same periods in 2001 primarily due
to lower borrowing cost, partially offset by higher average borrowings.
Borrowing cost decreased 99 basis points for the three months ended
June 30, 2002 and 122 basis points for the six months ended June 30,
2002 when compared to the same periods in 2001.  Federal Reserve
actions lowered the federal funds rate a total of 475 basis points
between December 2000 and December 2001 resulting in a low market rate
environment.  These actions resulted in lower rates on short-term and
long-term debt.  Average borrowings increased $289.2 million, or 3%,
for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and $284.1 million, or 3%, for
the six months ended June 30, 2002 when compared to the same periods in
2001 primarily to support real estate loan growth and our increase in
leverage.

ended June 30, 2002 and increased $5.5 million, or 2%, for the six
months ended June 30, 2002 when compared to the same periods in 2001.
The decrease in operating expenses for the three months ended June 30,
2002 when compared to the same period in 2001 was primarily due to
lower litigation expenses and the absence of goodwill amortization in
2002, partially offset by higher salaries.  The increase in operating
expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2002 when compared to the
same period in 2001 was primarily due to higher salaries and litigation
expenses, partially offset by the absence of goodwill amortization in
2002.  The increase in salaries reflected higher competitive
compensation.  The decrease in operating expenses as a percentage of
average net receivables for the three months ended June 30, 2002 when
compared to the same period in 2001 reflected lower operating expenses
compared to moderate finance receivable growth.

  receivable losses                               $449.6        $397.9


Provision for finance receivable losses increased $5.3 million, or 8%,
for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and $16.2 million, or 13%, for
the six months ended June 30, 2002 when compared to the same periods in
2001 primarily due to higher net charge-offs.

Charge-off ratios by type of finance receivable were as follows:

                                June 30,                June 30,

The increase in the charge-off ratio for the three months and six
months ended June 30, 2002 when compared to the same periods in 2001
was primarily due to higher net charge-offs on non-real estate loans
and retail sales finance receivables reflecting slowing economic
conditions.

Delinquency ratios by type of finance receivable were as follows:

                                             June 30,
                                       2002           2001

  Total                               3.63            3.26


The increase in the delinquency ratio at June 30, 2002 when compared to
June 30, 2001 also reflected slowing economic conditions.

Statistics relating to the allowance for finance receivable losses were
as follows:

<PAGE> 19

We periodically evaluate our finance receivable portfolio to determine
the appropriate level of the allowance for finance receivable losses.
We believe the amount of the allowance for finance receivable losses is
the most significant estimate we make.  In our opinion, the allowance
is adequate to absorb losses inherent in our existing portfolio.  The
increase in the allowance as a percentage of net finance receivables at
June 30, 2002 when compared to June 30, 2001 was primarily due to:

     *  increases to the allowance for finance receivable losses
        through the provision for finance receivable losses during the
        last twelve months totaling $20.0 million (this increase was
        necessary in response to our increased delinquency and net
        charge-offs and the higher levels of both unemployment and
        personal bankruptcies in the United States);
     *  an increase to the allowance for finance receivable losses
        through other charges in third quarter 2001 totaling $25.0
        million; and
     *  increases to the allowance for finance receivable losses
        during the last twelve months totaling $6.7 million resulting
        from applying purchase accounting to net portfolio
        acquisitions.

Charge-off coverage, which compares the allowance for finance
receivable losses to net charge-offs (annualized), decreased slightly
for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2002 when compared
to the same periods in 2001 reflecting higher net charge-offs,
substantially offset by increases to allowance for finance receivable
losses.

or 6%, for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and $2.4 million, or
6%, for the six months ended June 30, 2002 when compared to the same
periods in 2001 due to decreases in provision for future benefits and
claims.  The provision for future benefits decreased $.3 million for
the three months ended June 30, 2002 and $1.6 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2002 due to fewer policies in force.  Claims
decreased $.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and $.8
million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 primarily due to
decreased loss experience.

The provision for income taxes increased $4.4 million, or 11%, for the
three months ended June 30, 2002 and $9.5 million, or 12%, for the six
months ended June 30, 2002 when compared to the same periods in 2001
primarily due to higher taxable income, partially offset by a lower
effective tax rate.


Asset/Liability Management

We manage anticipated cash flows of our assets and liabilities,
principally our finance receivables and debt, in an effort to reduce
the risk associated with unfavorable changes in interest rates.
Management determines the mix of fixed-rate and floating-rate debt
based, in part, on the nature of the finance receivables being
supported.  We limit our exposure to market interest rate increases by
fixing interest rates that we pay for term periods.  The primary way we
accomplish this is by issuing fixed-rate debt.  To supplement fixed-
rate debt issuances, AGFC also uses interest rate swap agreements to
synthetically create fixed-rate, long-term debt by altering the nature
of certain floating-rate funding, thereby limiting our exposure to
market interest rate increases.  Floating-rate debt (principally
commercial paper) represented 34% of our average borrowings for the
three months and six months ended June 30, 2002 compared to 35% for the
three months and six months ended June 30, 2001.  These percentages
include the effect of interest rate swap agreements that effectively
converted short-term or floating-rate debt to a long-term fixed rate.
