ABN AMRO Mortgage Group's October Production Totals $6.8 Billion

            AAMG's Year-to-Date Production Up 22 Percent From 2002

    ANN ARBOR, Mich., Nov. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- ABN AMRO Mortgage Group, Inc.
(AAMG), the nation's sixth largest mortgage lender, released production
figures for the month ended October 31, 2003, for all of its production
divisions.
    ABN AMRO Mortgage Group reported October 2003 production of $6.8 billion,
with more than 40,000 loans funded.  Year-to-date (January 1, 2003 to
October 31, 2003), AAMG's production totaled over $115 billion, an increase of
22 percent from October 2002's year-to-date total.  The production derived
from each of AAMG's business channels is described below.
    "While mortgage activity, industry-wide, continues to decline from record
levels, AAMG's year-to-date production remains strong, even when compared to
2002," said group senior vice president Mike Maher.  "The diversification of
AAMG's lending channels, including its Financial Institutions Group and the
recently launched Affinity Programs and Relocation Lending, help maintain not
only production levels, but market leadership as well.  Despite the inevitable
interest rate and market fluctuations in the mortgage industry, AAMG remains
strategically well-positioned as we end 2003 and advance into 2004."
