THE PRESIDENT'S LETTER
Dear Shareholder:
From commencement of operations through June 30, 1997, the value of an
investment in your Fund increased at a rate of 7.60%.
As of June 30, 1997 your Fund's net assets, on an economic basis, were
invested as follows:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Foreign stocks 90.6%
Foreign currency bond 1.3
Cash and equivalents 8.1
-----
100.0%
=====
</TABLE>
About 45% of the foreign stock portfolio was invested in developed countries
in continental Europe and 25% in Japan. Other relatively large investments were
in Latin America (8%), New Zealand (7%) and Canada (5%).
In Europe, equity markets have moved up over the past few months which has
reduced investment opportunities. Of late, we have been doing more work on
Japanese securities, which have been in a seven-year bear market. We shall
continue to look there, as well as elsewhere, for specific securities that
appear to provide long-term value.
Sincerely yours,
/s/ Jean-Marie Eveillard
Jean-Marie Eveillard
President

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE
From commencement of operations on February 3, 1997 through June 30, 1997,
most European stocks rose sharply as an improving economic outlook in major
economies, low inflation, declining interest rates and a stronger dollar
provided substantial support for equity markets. Although political
developments and uncertainties related to the implementation of the European
economic and monetary union dampened performance early in the period, equities
recovered and rose sharply over the past few weeks.
Japanese stocks displayed a fair amount of volatility throughout the period
as the strength of the economy and the health of the banking sector remained
areas of concern. In Hong Kong, equities reached all time highs, ahead of the
territory's historic return to Chinese rule on July 1, 1997. Meanwhile, New
Zealand stocks were steady performers throughout the period. Latin American
markets registered strong gains through the end of June. Canadian stocks
experienced a significant set back early in the period when the Bre-X scandal
unfolded but recovered to close higher by the end of the period.
Currency markets were characterized by a sharp rise in the value of the U.S.
dollar against major European currencies. On the other hand, the U.S. dollar
ended little changed against the Japanese Yen. Yet the strength of the dollar
only had a slightly negative impact on the value of the Fund's assets, since
foreign currency exposure was partially hedged through June 1997.

SoGen Overseas Variable Fund
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
SoGen Variable Funds, Inc. (the "Company") is an open-end, diversified
management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended. The Company consists of one portfolio, SoGen Overseas
Variable Fund (the "Fund"). The following is a summary of significant
accounting policies adhered to by the Fund.
A) SECURITY VALUATION--Portfolio securities held in the Fund are valued based
on market quotations where available. Short-term investments maturing in sixty
days or less are valued at cost plus interest earned, which approximates value.
Securities for which current market quotations are not readily available and
any restricted securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith
by the Board of Directors.
B) DEFERRED ORGANIZATION COSTS AND PREPAID EXPENSES--Costs incurred in
connection with the organization of the Fund have been paid initially by
Societe Generale Asset Management Corp. ("SGAM Corp."), investment adviser to
the Fund. These costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over a sixty-month
period from the date the Fund commences investment operations. Other expenses
associated with the formation of the Fund have been paid initially by SGAM
Corp. Such prepaid expenses are amortized over the period of benefit, not to
exceed twelve months from the date the Fund commences operations.
C) SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INCOME--Security transactions are accounted for
on a trade date basis. The specific identification method is used in
determining realized gains and losses from security transactions. Dividend
income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded daily
on the accrual basis. In computing investment income, the Fund amortizes
discounts on debt obligations; however, premiums are not amortized.
D) EXPENSES--Earnings credits reduce custodian fees by the amount of interest
earned on balances with such service provider.
E) FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION--The market values of securities which are
not traded in U.S. currency are recorded in the financial statements after
translation to U.S. dollars based on the applicable exchange rates at the end
of the period. The costs of such securities are translated at exchange rates
prevailing when acquired. Related dividends, interest and withholding taxes are
accrued at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such
transactions.
The net assets of the Fund are presented at the foreign exchange rates and
market values at the close of the period. The Fund does not isolate that
portion of gains and losses on investments which is due to changes in foreign
exchange rates from that which is due to changes in market prices of the equity
securities. However, for federal income tax purposes the Fund does isolate the
effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from the changes in market prices
for realized gains and losses on debt obligations.
F) FORWARD CURRENCY CONTRACTS--In connection with portfolio purchases and
sales of securities denominated in foreign currencies, the Fund may enter into
forward currency contracts. Additionally, the Fund may enter into such
contracts to hedge certain other foreign currency denominated investments.
These contracts are valued at current market, and the related realized and
unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses are included in the statement of
operations. In the event that counterparties fail to settle these currency
contracts or the related foreign security trades, the Fund could be exposed to
foreign currency fluctuations.

SoGen Overseas Variable Fund
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
NOTE 1--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
G) U.S. INCOME TAXES--No provision has been made for U.S. federal income
taxes since it is the intention of the Fund to distribute to shareholders all
taxable net investment income and net realized gains on investments, if any,
within the allowable time limit, and to comply with the provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code for a regulated investment company. Such income dividends
and capital gains distributions are declared and paid by the Fund on an annual
basis.
H) RECLASSIFICATION OF CAPITAL ACCOUNTS--On the statements of assets and
liabilities, as a result of certain differences in the computation of net
investment income and net realized capital gains under federal income tax rules
and regulations versus generally accepted accounting principles, a
reclassification has been made to decrease undistributed net investment income
and increase undistributed net realized gains on investments in the amount of
$326.
I) USE OF ESTIMATES--The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
NOTE 2--INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS
Under the terms of an investment advisory agreement dated August 16, 1996,
the Fund pays SGAM Corp. a monthly advisory fee at an annual rate of 0.75% of
the average daily net assets of the Fund. In return, SGAM Corp. provides the
Fund with advisory services and pays certain Fund expenses, including salaries
and office costs. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Fund's investment
advisory fees paid or payable to SGAM Corp. were $1,885.
For the period from February 3, 1997 to June 30, 1997, Societe Generale or
its affiliates received $175 in broker's commissions for portfolio transactions
executed on behalf of the Fund.
Each director who is not an officer of the Company or an employee of SGAM
Corp., Societe Generale Securities Corp. ("SGSC") or its corporate affiliates
is paid an annual fee of $6,000 plus $1,000 for each meeting attended. For the
six months ended June 30, 1997 such fees amounted to $264.
NOTE 3--DISTRIBUTION PLAN AND AGREEMENT
The Company has entered into a Distribution Plan and Agreement (the "Plan")
with SGSC, pursuant to the provisions of Rule 12b-1 under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, whereby the Fund may pay quarterly, a distribution related
fee to SGSC at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the Fund's average daily net
assets. The Agreement provides that SGSC will use amounts payable by the Fund
under the Agreement, in their entirety for payments to insurance companies
which are the issuers of variable contracts invested in shares of the Fund, in
order to pay or reimburse such insurance companies for distribution and
shareholder servicing-related expenses incurred or paid by such insurance
companies. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, the distribution fees paid
or payable to SGSC by the Fund were $628.
