           -------------------------------------------------------------------
           Matters.
           --------

           (a)     Market  Information.  There  is no established public trading
                   market for the  Certificates.
           (b)     Holders.  Since  each  of the Certificates was issued in book
                   entry form only,  there  is  only  one  holder  of record of
                   the Certificates.  See Item 12 below.
           (c)     Dividends.  Not  applicable.

           registered in the name of Cede &  Co., the nominee of  The Depository
           Trust Company  ("DTC"). An investor  holding  an  interest  in  the
           Trust  is  not  entitled  to receive a certificate  representing such
           interest  except  in limited  circumstances.  Accordingly, Cede & Co.
           is the sole holder of record of the Certificates, which it  holds  on
           behalf of brokers, dealers, banks and other participants in  the  DTC
           system.  Such  participants  may hold  certificates  for  their  own
           accounts or for the  accounts  of  their  customers.  The  address of
           Cede  &  Co.  is
                    Cede  &  Co.

Exhibit  99.2



                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS


To  the  Board  of  Directors  and  Shareholders  of
Bank  of  America  Corporation


We have examined management's assertion about Bank of America Corporation's (the
"Company") compliance with the servicing requirements outlined in sections 12.3,
13.8,  13.8A,  14.1,  14.1A,  14.2,  14.2A,  14.3,  14.6, 14.7, and 14.7A of the
Pooling  and  Servicing Agreement dated September 30, 1997 (the "Agreement") for
the  NationsCredit  Grantor  Trust  1997-2 securitization as of and for the year
ended  December  31, 2001 included in the accompanying management assertion (see
Exhibit  I).  Management  is responsible for the Company's compliance with those
requirements.  Our  responsibility  is  to  express  an  opinion on management's
assertion  about  the  Company's  compliance  based  on  our  examination.

Our examination was made in accordance with attestation standards established by
the  American  Institute  of  Certified  Public  Accountants  and,  accordingly,
included  examining,  on  a  test basis, evidence about the Company's compliance
with  those  requirements  and performing such other procedures as we considered
necessary  in  the  circumstances.  We  believe  that our examination provides a
reasonable  basis  for  our  opinion.  Our  examination does not provide a legal
determination  on  the  Company's  compliance  with  specified  requirements.

In  our  opinion,  management's  assertion  that  the  Company complied with the
aforementioned  requirements  as  of and for the year ended December 31, 2001 is
fairly  stated,  in  all  material  respects.
