Corrections: 01/21/98

A Jan 12. story, "Market Cap of Top 100 Skyrockets 50.6% in '97" (page 31), misidentified the buyer of Deposit Guaranty Corp., Jackson, Miss. It is First American Corp., Nashville, Tenn.

Because of misplaced asterisks, Jan. 20 tables on pages 8 and 12 ranking banks by their mortgage investments incorrectly described Republic National Bank's ownership. The New York bank is a wholly owned subsidiary of Republic New York Corp.

An article Monday, "Shrinkage of the IPO Market Takes Toll on Specialist Firm" (page 25), overstated the percentage of Friedman Billings Ramsey Group's revenues derived from initial public offerings. The correct figure is 45%; the 60% in the article includes all other capital-raising activities.
