Changes in Registrant's Independent Auditors Effective March 19, 1996, The Morgan Group, Inc. ("Morgan"), dismissed Arthur Andersen, LLP and retained Ernst & Young, LLP, which audits Registrant. The decision to change auditors was approved by Morgan's Board of Directors and Registrant's Audit Committee. Arthur Andersen's report on Morgan's financial statements during the 1995 fiscal year prior to its replacement contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinions, and was not qualified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During the 1995 fiscal year, there were no disagreements between Morgan and Arthur Andersen on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction or Arthur Andersen, would have caused it to make a reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report. Item 7. Financial Statements and Exhibits Exhibit 16 - Letter Re: Change in Certifying Accountant Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.
