REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To The Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits
of The Hartford Investment and Savings Plan as of December 30, 2000 and 1999,
and the related Statements of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits for
the years then ended. These financial statements and the schedules referred to
below are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements and schedules based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of The Hartford
Investment and Savings Plan as of December 30, 2000 and 1999, and the changes in
net assets available for benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules are presented
for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic
financial statements but are supplementary information required by the
Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedules
have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic
financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

THE HARTFORD INVESTMENT AND SAVINGS PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999
(DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS)
NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN
The Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its
consolidated subsidiaries ("The Hartford" or the "Company") provide life and
property and casualty insurance to both individual and commercial customers in
the United States and internationally.
On June 27, 2000, The Hartford acquired all of the outstanding shares of
Hartford Life, Inc. ("Hartford Life" or "HLI") that the Company did not already
own ("The HLI Repurchase"). As a result, HLI became a wholly-owned subsidiary of
The Hartford. While Hartford Life continues to exist as a company, Hartford Life
stock no longer is listed or traded on the New York Stock Exchange. Proceeds
received by The Hartford Investment and Savings Plan (the "Plan") from The HLI
Repurchase of $70,888 were used by the trustee to purchase shares of The
Hartford common stock. All of the assets that were remaining in Hartford Life
Company Stock Fund, after the purchase of the shares was completed, were
transferred to Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc. Stock Fund. After the
purchase of HLI shares was completed, future employee contributions were
redirected to Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc. Stock Fund.
Information with regard to eligibility, contributions, distributions, vesting,
trustees, withdrawals, restoration, loans, fund redistribution and definitions
of all capitalized terms are contained in the Plan's information document, which
has been distributed to the participants.
General
-------
The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all full-time and some
part-time employees of the Company who have six months or more of service and
who have attained age 19. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").
The Trust, as defined in the Plan document, is the aggregate funds held by the
Trustee, Bankers Trust Company, under the trust agreement established for the
purposes of this Plan.
Contributions
-------------
Plan members may generally elect to save 2% to 16% of base salary. Members may
designate their savings as before-tax, after-tax or a combination of both.
Members who are highly compensated employees may be limited to less than 16% due
to the operation of certain tests required under the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the "Code").
An amount equal to 50% of a member's Basic Savings is matched by the Company.
Basic Savings are contributions which are not in excess of the first 6% of base
salary. Members' savings in excess of 6% of base salary are supplemental savings
that are not matched by Company contributions. In addition, the Company
allocates 0.5% of base salary to the Floor Company Contribution Account of each
eligible employee. Matching Company contributions and Floor Company
contributions are invested in Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc. Stock
Fund.
On December 30, 2000 for the 2001 Plan year and December 30, 1999 for the 2000
Plan year, the Company guaranteed a fixed minimum contribution (based on a
percentage of the amount of employer contributions normally made) that
represents the employee salary deferral contributions and matching contributions
for the subsequent Plan year. If actual contributions are less than the
guaranteed fixed minimum amount at the end of the Plan year, an additional
matching contribution would be made to the participants. The minimum
contribution was met for the 2000 Plan year.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
Administrative Costs
--------------------
The Trust, as defined by the Plan, pays for the administrative expenses of the
Plan up to 0.25% of the market value of Trust assets. The Company continues to
pay certain Plan administrative expenses which cannot be paid by the Trust.
Member Accounts
---------------
Each member's account is credited with that member's contributions and
allocations of (a) the Company's contribution and (b) Plan earnings, and is
charged with an allocation of administrative expenses. Allocations are based on
member earnings or account balances, as defined in the Plan document. The
benefit to which a member is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from
that member's vested account.
Vesting
-------
Vesting in Company-matched contributions begins one year after employment at 20%
and increases 20% each consecutive year until the fifth consecutive year of
employment when 100% is vested. Notwithstanding the foregoing statement, a
member becomes fully vested in such member's Company contribution account upon
retirement, disability, death, or upon reaching age 65, or the complete
discontinuance of Company contributions or upon termination of the Plan. Floor
contributions are 100% vested when allocated to each member's account.

primary residence. The loan is secured by the balance in the member's account
and bears interest at the prime rate (as published in the Wall Street Journal)
plus 1% and remains fixed for the term of the loan. The interest rate is
determined quarterly.
F-6
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
Payment of Benefits
-------------------
On termination of service due to death, disability, retirement, or other
reasons, members or their designated beneficiaries may elect to receive either a
lump sum amount equal to the value of the vested interest in their respective
accounts or, subject to certain conditions, annual installments over a period
not greater than twenty years. Members or their designated beneficiaries may
also elect to defer distributions subject to certain conditions.
Forfeitures
-----------
Forfeitures of the nonvested portion of any member's Company contributions are
applied to reduce future Company contributions. Forfeitures were immaterial for
the years ended December 30, 2000 and 1999.
NOTE 2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of
accounting. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and the Department
of Labor Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under ERISA requires
management of the Plan to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and
expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
The Accounting Standards Executive Committee issued Statement of Position 99-3,
"Accounting For and Reporting of Certain Defined Contribution Plan Investments
and Other Disclosure Matters", which eliminates the requirement for a defined
contribution plan to disclose member directed investment programs, and was
adopted for the 1999 Plan year financial statements.
NOTE 3. INVESTMENTS
The following investments represented 5 % or more of the Plan's net assets.

F-7
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
NOTE 4. VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS
Plan investments, except group annuity contracts, are reported at fair value.
The fair value of the underlying common stock of Hartford Financial Services
Group, Inc. Stock Fund and Hartford Life Company Stock Fund is based on quoted
market prices. Interests in mutual funds and pooled investment funds are valued
at the redemption price established by the trustee or the investment manager of
the respective fund.
The Plan has entered into numerous traditional and synthetic group annuity
contracts primarily with insurance carriers. These contracts, which are included
in the Stable Value Fund, are fully benefit responsive and are included in the
financial statements at contract value. Contract value represents contributions
made under the contract, plus earnings, less Plan withdrawals and administrative
expenses. As of December 30, 2000, the estimated fair value of the group annuity
contracts was $319,639. The average yield and weighted average crediting
interest rate on these contracts was 6.56% and 6.80%, respectively, for the year
ended December 30, 2000, and 6.20% and 6.16%, respectively, for the year ended
December 30, 1999. Crediting interest rate resets are generally made quarterly
for synthetic contracts and are reset based on formulas which may use market
value, book value, duration and yield. A synthetic group annuity contract is an
investment contract that simulates the performance of a traditional group
annuity contract through the use of financial instruments. A key difference
between a synthetic group annuity contract and a traditional group annuity
contract is that the Plan owns the assets underlying the synthetic group annuity
contract. Traditional group annuity contracts have fixed crediting interest
rates.
NOTE 5. FEDERAL INCOME TAX
On February 25, 1998, a favorable determination was received from the Internal
Revenue Service as to the tax-qualified status of the Plan. While the Plan has
been amended subsequent to the receipt of the determination letter, the Plan
administrator believes that the Plan is designed and is being operated in
compliance with applicable provisions of the Code and other applicable law, and
there have been no amendments, changes or events, which have occurred, which
could affect the Plan's qualified status. Accordingly, no provision for income
taxes has been made in the Plan's financial statements.
NOTE 6. PLAN TERMINATION
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right
under the Plan to suspend, reduce, or partially or completely discontinue its
contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan, the trust agreement and the
Trust hereunder subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of termination
or partial termination of the Plan or complete discontinuance of contributions,
the interest of affected members shall automatically become nonforfeitable.
NOTE 7. RECONCILIATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS TO FORM 5500
As of December 30, 2000 and 1999, the following is a reconciliation of net
assets available for plan benefits according to the accompanying financial

Amounts allocated to withdrawing members are recorded on Form 5500 for benefit

Plan year but not paid as of that date.
NOTE 8. PARTY-IN-INTEREST TRANSACTIONS
Certain Plan investments are held in funds managed by Bankers Trust Company, the
Trustee, as defined by the Plan, and certain subsidiaries of The Hartford. Fees
paid by the Plan for Trustee, custodial and investment management services
provided by Bankers Trust Company amounted to $615 and $561 for the years ended
December 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Fees paid by the Plan to certain
subsidiaries of the Company for investment management services and the issuance
of group annuity contracts amounted to $76 and $85 for the years ended December
30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. In addition, certain Plan investments are
shares of The Hartford common stock for the 2000 and 1999 Plan years and
Hartford Life common stock for the 1999 Plan year only. Since The Hartford is
the Plan Sponsor, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions.
