ABN AMRO Mortgage Group's Record-Breaking Year-to-Date Production Tops $120 Billion
    ANN ARBOR, Mich., Jan. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- ABN AMRO Mortgage Group, Inc.
(AAMG), the nation's sixth largest mortgage lender, today released its
production for the month ended November 30, 2003, for all of its production
divisions.
    AAMG reported November 2003 production of $5.1 billion, with more than
30,600 loans funded.  Year-to-date (January 1, 2003 through November 30,
2003), AAMG's production totaled $120.2 billion.
    "Despite the recent market normalization which has slowed current
production levels, AAMG's 2003 production will surpass all previous years.
With December's production still to be realized, AAMG has already surpassed
its 2002 record production," said Mike Maher, group senior vice president.
    "This significant accomplishment can be attributed to AAMG's commitment to
exceeding customers' expectations," Maher continued.  "Consumers and brokers
alike benefit from AAMG's dedication to making the loan process clear, concise
and efficient."
    Production derived from each of AAMG's five business channels:
