REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

To the Pension and 401(k) Plan Committee of MBNA Corporation

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for
benefits of MBNA Corporation 401(k) Plus Savings Plan as of December 31, 2000
and 1999, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for
benefits for the year ended December 31, 2000.  These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Plan's management.  Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

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

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at
December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the changes in its net assets available for
benefits for the year ended December 31, 2000, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the
financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedule
of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2000 is presented for the
purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial
statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of
Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the
responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the financial
statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in
relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

See accompanying notes to the financial statements.













MBNA CORPORATION 401(k) PLUS SAVINGS PLAN

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1:  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The MBNA Corporation 401(k) Plus Savings Plan's ("the Plan") financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States on the accrual basis, which requires MBNA
Corporation's ("the Corporation") management to make estimates that affect the
amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

Investments, except for loans receivable and guaranteed investment contracts
which are "fully benefit responsive," are stated at aggregate fair value. The
guaranteed investment contracts generally have stated maturities and are valued
at the amount contributed plus interest earned less withdrawals.  Certain of
these contracts contain early withdrawal penalties except to fulfill benefits
elected by plan participants in accordance with the terms of the contract. A
"fully benefit responsive" guaranteed investment contract provides a liquidity
guarantee by a financially responsible third party of principal and previously
accrued interest for liquidations, transfers, loans, or hardship withdrawals
initiated by plan participants exercising their rights to withdraw, borrow, or
transfer funds under the terms of the Plan.  A traditional guaranteed
investment contract is an investment contract in which the Plan enters into a
contract with an independent third party which provides the Plan with a call on
the contract issuer's assets in the event of default.  A synthetic guaranteed
investment contract is an investment contract in which the Plan owns the
underlying assets.  With synthetic guaranteed investment contracts, the Plan
purchases a benefit responsive wrapper contract issued by an independent third
party that provides market and cash flow risk protection to the Plan.  A
guaranteed investment contract which is "fully benefit responsive" is recorded
at contract value. Securities traded on a national securities exchange are
valued at the last reported sales price on the last business day of the year.
Investments traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for
which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last reported bid
price.  Interest in registered investment companies and investments in common
trust funds are stated at the Plan's interest in the fair value of the
underlying assets in the registered investment companies and common trust
funds.  Loans receivable are stated at the amount borrowed by the participant
less principal repayments, which approximates fair value.

The difference between fair value and cost of investments held, and net
realized gain or loss on sale of investments (difference between the proceeds
received and the average cost of investments sold), is reflected in the
Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits as net realized and
unrealized appreciation in fair value of investments.

Benefits are recognized when paid.  Administrative expenses of $732,241 in
2000, including amounts paid to The Northern Trust Company, for acting as
trustee and custodian of the Plan's investments, are paid by the Plan.






NOTE 2:  DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

The Plan is a defined contribution plan which qualifies under section 401(k) of
the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC").  Employees can invest up to a maximum of 12%
of eligible earnings on a pre-tax basis (up to $10,500 per year for 2000 and up
to $10,000 per year for 1999) and a maximum of 10% of eligible earnings on an
after-tax basis.  Combined employee contributions, including after-tax
contributions limited to 10%, may not exceed 17% of eligible earnings.  The
Corporation automatically contributes 1% of eligible earnings for each
participant and matches the first 6% of either before-tax or after-tax employee
contributions at fifty cents on the dollar.  Both employee and employer
contributions for highly compensated employees have been limited to ensure the
passage of non-discrimination tests.

All contributions to the Plan are immediately 100% vested.  Pre-tax
contributions, as well as the automatic 1% contribution by the Corporation, are
not available for withdrawal before attaining age 59-1/2 or termination of
employment.  Pre-tax contributions may also be available in certain
circumstances of financial hardship.

Subject to certain limitations, participants may elect to withdraw all or part
of their after-tax and matching contributions plus earnings from the Plan.  In
addition, participants can borrow money against their savings in the Plan.

The Plan provides eight investment options. A participant's contribution may be
invested in 5% increments in any of the available funds. In addition, not more
than 25% of new contributions may be invested in the MBNA Stock Fund.
Participants have the option to change the contributions and investments once a
month or as determined by the Pension and 401(k) Plan Committee.  The Plan's
investment options are:

     Fixed Income Fund
     Bond Fund
     Diversified Fund
     Index Fund
     Growth Fund
     MBNA Stock Fund
     Aggressive Growth Fund
     Moderate Aggressive Fund

In addition to the eight investment options, borrowings by participants against
their savings in the Plan and related activity are reported in the Loan Fund.

Although it has not expressed any intention to do so, the Corporation has the
right to terminate the Plan in whole or in part at any time; however, in such
circumstances, the participants would receive the full value of their account.

Information about the Plan, including distribution provisions and withdrawal
limitations, is contained in the Summary Plan Description.  Copies of the
Summary Plan Description are available from the Benefits and Compensation
Department of the Corporation.






NOTE 3:  INVESTMENTS

The net realized and unrealized (depreciation) appreciation in fair value of
the Plan's investments was as follows:

The fair value of individual investments that represent 5% or more of the
Plan's net assets available for benefits at December 31, 2000 and 1999 are as
follows:
                                          2000                    1999

The Plan's investments in guaranteed investment contracts in the aggregate for
the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 were as follows:

                                                   2000             1999

  Crediting interest rates ranging from.....    5.74% to 7.67%   5.99% to 6.37%
  Maturity dates ranging from (a)...........     2001 to 2005     2000 to 2003

  (a)  The synthetic GICs do not have a stated maturity and are periodically
       reviewed by the investment manager to ensure the contracts remain
       reasonable in comparison to the market.

The guaranteed investment contracts held by the Plan at December 31, 2000 and
1999 had Standard and Poor's ratings ranging from AA to AAA.  The Plan holds
fixed rate and variable rate guaranteed investment contracts.  The variable
rate guaranteed investment contracts reprice quarterly.  The fair value of the
guaranteed investment contracts approximates book value.



NOTE 4:  TRANSACTIONS WITH PARTIES-IN-INTEREST

For the year ended December 31, 2000, the Plan earned investment income of
$184,967 on its investments administered by the trustee.  In addition, for the
year ended December 31, 2000, the Plan earned dividend income of $2,037,073 on
shares of MBNA Corporation Common Stock held by the Plan.  As of December 31,
2000 and 1999, the Plan also had a dividend receivable of $485,413 and
$518,356, respectively, on shares of MBNA Corporation Common Stock held by the
Plan.

Fees paid during the year for services rendered to the Plan by parties-in-
interest were based on customary and reasonable rates for such services.

NOTE 5:  INCOME TAX STATUS

The Plan has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service
dated June 12, 1995, stating that the Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of
the IRC and, therefore, the related trust is exempt from taxation.  Once
qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the IRC to
maintain its qualification.  The Plan Administrator believes the Plan is being
operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC and,
therefore, believes the Plan is qualified and the related trust is tax exempt.

NOTE 6:  RECONCILIATION TO FORM 5500

The financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 differ
from the Form 5500 filed with the IRS in that net gains and losses and
unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investment assets have been
combined in the financial statements as net realized and unrealized
appreciation in fair value of investments rather than shown separately as on
schedule H, lines 2b(4) and 2b(5) of Form 5500.  In addition, a liability for
benefits payable of $90,332 and $34,788 at December 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively, has been recorded on schedule H, line 2i of the Form 5500, and
has not been recorded in these financial statements.

NOTE 7:  NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("Statement No. 133"), establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including
certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and hedging
activities.  In June 1999, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 137,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities-Deferral of the
Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133" ("Statement No. 137") was issued and
extended the effective date for Statement No. 133 to all fiscal quarters of all
fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.  In June 2000, the Financial
