This paper contains an extension of a result obtained by H. Bart, M. A. Kaashoek and D. C. Lay in (2). These authors studied the reduced algebraic multiplicity RM(A; λ0) of a meromorphic operator function at a point λ0C. They proved that under certain conditions this quantity has logarithmic behaviour, i.e.,

For more restricted cases such results had been proved by others, notably I. C. Gohberg and E. I. Sigal (see (4) and (5)). Here we shall prove that such a result also holds for a larger class of operator functions than the diagonable functions considered in (2).
