results and experience to differ materially from the expectations expressed in
these statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, financial
market volatility, actions and initiatives by current and potential competitors,
the effect of current and future legislation or regulation, and additional
factors described in Merrill Lynch's Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent
