Q. How Did The Fund Perform?

The Hartford Small Company Fund returned 35.9% in the fourth quarter bringing
the return for the 1-Year period ending December 31, 1999 to 65.7% versus a
return of 33.4% for the Lipper Small Cap MF Average over the same period.

Q. Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?

Led by the fastest growth companies, the Russell 2000 Index outperformed the
S&P 500 during the year. In fact, 1999 marks the first time in five years
that small cap stocks have outperformed large cap stocks.  For the one-year
period ended December 31, 1999, the Russell 2000 Index advanced 21.3% while
the S&P 500 increased 21.0%.  This type of relative outperformance was long
overdue and makes sense as the valuations for small cap stocks are very
attractive and the earnings prospects remain strong.  During the year,
relative returns were positively impacted by strong stock selection within
the technology and healthcare sectors.

Q. What Is Your Outlook For 2000?

Supported by powerful consumer spending trends, the US economy should post
relatively strong growth in 2000. Labor markets will be tight, but inflation
will remain benign due to above-average productivity and moderating oil
prices.  In an environment of solid economic growth and stable inflation,
smaller companies should outperform due to their strong earnings prospects
and higher growth potential.  However, substantially higher rates could lead
to multiple compression, as valuations of small company stocks are sensitive
to changes in interest rates.  While Technology is unlikely to lead the
market after last year's stellar performance, we remain very bullish on the
sector's long-term prospects.

Q. How Did The Fund Perform?

For the 1-year period ended December 31,1999, The Hartford Capital Appreciation
Fund outpaced the Lipper Capital Appreciation MF Average, 66.7% versus 41.1%,
respectively.

Q. Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?

The market continued to broaden, particularly relative to market capitalization.
Smaller companies' relative price-to-earnings ratios remain below the overall
market's, while relative growth prospects are probably better. The historic
disparity in both relative performance and valuations should lead to a further
broadening of the market. World economic growth appears stronger than it has
been for some time. The leverage in the cyclical sectors of the economy should
be substantial, and we suspect that existing earnings estimates for these stocks
will have to be revised upward as the year progresses. The technology sector was
the star performer for the year as Internet mania infected all sectors of the
market. The Fund's performance was again helped by a diverse group of companies,
most of these were in the information technology sector.

Q. What Is Your Outlook For 2000?

Higher interest rates and obvious speculation have increased the overall level
of market risk. Flows into equity funds, however, have remained strong, so the
current uptrend may continue for a while longer. Our overall strategy for the
Fund remains dual faceted: an emphasis on smaller companies with dynamic
earnings growth prospects, and an opportunistic trading approach to larger-cap
stocks where we typically see a catalyst for outperformance. This approach, if
executed well, should provide positive absolute and relative results over a
reasonable time frame.

Q. How Did The Fund Perform?

The Hartford MidCap Fund returned 50.2% for the 12-month period ending December
31, 1999 versus the Lipper Mid Cap Core Average return of 38.3% over the same
time period. Since inception, the Fund has returned 35.9% versus a return of
28.9% for its Lipper peer group.

Q. Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?

In 1999, mid-cap stocks outperformed large cap stocks by just under 2%.
Historically, mid-cap stocks have outperformed large cap stocks during times of
accelerating economic growth. Within the mid-cap universe, the best performing
sectors were technology and biotechnology. The Fund's performance benefited from
good participation in the better performing sectors such as technology and from
an underweight position in poorer performing sectors such as finance.

Q. What Is Your Outlook For 2000?

We believe the outlook for the types of mid-cap companies we seek is positive.
These high quality, market-leading companies should fare relatively well during
a period of economic growth. The relative valuations of the stocks are near
10-year lows. The Fund should continue to fare well given our commitment and
focus on maintaining the investment strategies used thus far.

Q. How Did The Fund Perform?

In the fourth quarter, the Hartford International Opportunities Fund returned
22.3% bringing the return for the 1-Year period ending December 31, 1999 to
39.1% versus a return of 40.8% for the Lipper International MF Average over the
same time period.

Q. Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?

Global equities delivered extraordinary performance during the year, despite
rising interest rates. The MSCI EAFE Index led the way with strong European
returns. Within Europe, Finland rose a phenomenal 153.3%, while Germany was up a
more modest though still strong 20.5%. The UK rose 12.4% for the year.
Elsewhere, Japan was up 61.8% on strength in technology and telecom issues.
Emerging markets also advanced, led by the Pacific Rim. We continue to favor
countries within the Euro area and increased our exposure to these countries
over the course of the year. Most of the Euro area countries stand to benefit
from economic growth that we expect will surprise on the upside. In Japan, we
trimmed our position due to the lack of any recent initiatives by the government
to further accelerate the process of change of the economy.

We added selectively to our emerging markets exposure, as these markets should
continue to perform well in an environment of improving global growth.

Q. What Is Your Outlook For 2000?

We will continue to focus on areas that have demonstrated growth or growth
acceleration. Continental Europe remains the Fund's largest regional exposure,
within which we continue to favor France and Germany. While we continue to like
the longer-term outlook for continental Europe, for both cyclical and secular
reasons, we believe that emerging markets will benefit the most from an economic
upturn and have increased our exposure to selected markets in this area. In
addition to favoring the faster growing economies of the world, we also favor
some of the faster growing sectors such as information technology,
telecommunications, and the internet, which are experiencing strong secular
growth trends around the globe. In Japan, we have adopted a cautious stance as
we await further evidence of corporate restructuring and continued economic
recovery.

Q. How Did The Fund Perform?

The Hartford Global Leaders Fund returned 47.7% for the 12-month period ending
December 31, 1999 versus 36.1% for the Lipper Global Average over the same time
period. Since inception, the Fund has returned 68.7% versus a return of 23.9%
for its Lipper peer group.

Q. Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?

December 31st marked one of the most dramatic stock markets we have seen in some
time. Around the globe, all forces were in sync to help produce stellar returns
in the equity market. There were two important keys to the Fund's performance:
sector allocation (most of the Fund's assets were in the better performing
sectors) and stock selection (we added to the sector returns in all categories).
The Fund remained focused on its themes and sector strategies, and continued to
emphasize growth in both sectors and individual companies.

Q. What Is Your Outlook For 2000?

The market environment continues to be challenging to global investors. The only
cautionary winds are interest rate increases around the world, a trend that we
will closely monitor in the coming months. We have conviction in our company
research and are committed to our sector strategy and will continue to seek to
invest in the best companies in the world. We believe that as long as we
continue to maintain this strategy, the Fund can continue to outperform its
peers.

Q. How Did The Fund Perform?

The Hartford Stock Fund returned 22.3% for the 12-month period ending December
31, 1999. The Fund's return exceeded that of the S&P 500 Index, 21.0%, and
matched the Lipper Large-Cap Core Average, 22.3%. Since inception, the Fund has
returned 29.7% relative to its Lipper peer group average of 22.4% over the same
time period.

Q. Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?

In 1999, large capitalization growth stocks performed well, as did small and
mid-cap growth stocks. Initial public offerings soared to record levels and
takeovers reached new heights. Additionally, the Federal Reserve raised interest
rates three times in an effort to slow down the pace of the US economy. Somewhat
hidden within this euphoria was the fact that once again, only about 30% of the
stocks in the S&P 500 outperformed the index. Strong sectors included:
electronics, communications equipment, metals and minerals, computer software,
oil service and media. The Fund's performance benefited from overweight
positions in semiconductors, communications equipment, computer software, oil
and service and media and underweight positions in banks and food and beverages.
In general, we added value versus the index through both accurate sector
weightings and above average stock selection.

Q. What Is Your Outlook For 2000?

The US economy continues to roll along. Unemployment is at record lows, the
Federal budget is in surplus and the political arena seems benign. The major
economic regions of the World seem to be recovering from the stagnant period of
the last few years. Rising world interest rates could put a damper on further
multiple expansion in many of the market's favorite growth names. Given the
economic outlook and high valuation levels of growth companies, we believe that
a shift to more cyclically oriented stocks at the margin makes sense. We
continue to remain cautiously optimistic about the equity market.

Q. How Did The Fund Perform?

Over the past year, The Hartford Growth and Income Fund has returned 20.8%, well
ahead of the 13.8% return of the Lipper Growth and Income MF Average.

Q. Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?

Equity markets were very strong around the globe. In the US, the S&P 500 was up
21% and small cap stocks rallied over 21%. As expected, the Federal Reserve
raised rates for a third time during the year, but the market was unfazed. Y2K
concerns proved to be a non-event, as corporations seemed to be extraordinarily
well prepared. The Fed was on hand with extra liquidity if needed, and this may
have played a role in the year-end rally. Once again, technology issues carried
the year. Some of the strongest performing sectors during the year were
communications equipment and software. Our stocks in the technology sector-
Cisco and Motorola contributed to the strong performance of the Fund. Large cap
drug stocks languished towards the end of the year, but the smaller stocks that
we owned in their place did very well. For example, Immunex reported that sales
of their arthritis drug was gaining popularity and sales rose faster than
expected, and Genentech responded positively to the news that majority owner
Roche would be offering more of their shares through a secondary offering.

Q. What Is Your Outlook For 2000?

We expect further Fed tightening and foresee interest rate pressures. However,
it appears that the market still favors technology issues. We will continue to
maintain our position in this sector, but will try to buy some less expensive
hardware makers as we begin the next quarter. We continue to have faith in the
higher yielding sectors like utilities and energy and will maintain our
weighting in these sectors. The consumer stock sector is beginning to look more
attractive and we will look to increase our weighting in this area as
opportunities present themselves.

Q. How Did The Fund Perform?

The Hartford Dividend and Growth Fund returned 4.6% for the 12-month period
ending December 31, 1999 versus the Lipper Equity Income Average return of 3.3%
over the same time period. Since inception, the Fund has returned 18.8% versus a
return of 12.7% for its Lipper peer group.

Q. Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?

With the strength in the technology sector, it's not surprising that growth
again outperformed value (Russell 1000 Growth Index total return 25% versus the
Russell 1000 Value Index total return 5%). Our long-term positions within the
Health Care, Finance and Industrial/Commercial sectors were strong contributors
to the Fund's performance.

Q. What Is Your Outlook For 2000?

We will continue to maintain a long-term view on stock selection and sector
representation. In line with our dividend-oriented style, we continue to be
underweighted in the information technology sector. Our stock positions have an
above-average yield and below average P/E and beta. Relative to the market, the
Fund should continue to exhibit these value-oriented characteristics over time.

Q. How Did The Fund Perform?

The Hartford Advisers Fund returned 12.1% for the 12-month period ending
December 31, 1999 versus the Lipper Flexible Average return of 12.5% over the
same time period. Since inception, the Fund has returned 19.9% versus a return
of 14.1% for its Lipper peer group.

Q. Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?

We have gradually increased our equity exposure in response to favorable
fundamentals; however, we remain cautious to the possible negative effects
resulting from more interest rate hikes. The equity portion of the Fund's
performance benefited from overweight positions in semiconductors,
communications equipment, computer software, oil and service and media and
underweight positions in banks and food and beverages. In general, we added
value versus the index through both accurate sector weightings and above average
stock selection. The bond market provided mixed results in 1999 with the
corporate and mortgage backed sectors leading the way. We continue to maintain
substantial positions in both corporate and mortgage backed bonds, positions
that clearly helped performance during 1999.

Q. What Is Your Outlook For 2000?

For 2000, the critical issue for the direction of interest rates is precisely
the same as it was during 1999, the pace of the US economy. It is likely that
the Fed will continue to pay primary attention to real growth. We do not believe
a radical upward move in the Fed Funds rate is either necessary or desirable and
that a peak in long-term interest rates is not far off. We will likely begin to
slowly add longer bond positions to the portfolio in anticipation to an end to
the current round of Fed tightening. By gradually adjusting the weighting
between stocks, bonds, and cash we will continue to use our expectations of
market developments to produce attractive returns.

Q. How Did The Fund Perform?

The Hartford High Yield Fund commenced operations on September 30, 1998. The
Fund's Class A shares placed in the 58th percentile of its Lipper peer group for
the six months ended December 31, 1999, producing a total return of 3.47% versus
the 4.55% return of the Lipper High Current Yield Fixed Income Fund average.

Q. Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?

*    The Fund's high average credit quality contributed to the Fund's
     performance as BB rated high yield securities significantly outperformed
     the lower-rated B and CCC universe of high yield issues.

*    The Fund's overweight of the commodity-related industries, such as oil
     exploration and chemicals, provided additional performance at the margin.

Q. What Is Your Outlook For 2000?

The current yield offered by the high yield market today averages 9.75%,
offering income-seeking investors an attractive investment complement to higher
quality fixed income securities or equities. As we enter the new year, we are
emphasizing three themes in the high yield funds. The first theme reflects our
belief that there are opportunities for outperformance in high yield securities
that will benefit from rising global economic growth. The commodity-related
issues we have been emphasizing in the portfolio are reflective of this view.
Secondly, we have overweighted issues of select health care providers to reflect
our view that the worst is behind this segment of the healthcare industry, and
that their securities are attractively valued. Finally, the Fund carries an
underweighted position in securities that could be adversely impacted by rising
interest rates and/or an enthusiastic US consumer.

Q. How Did The Fund Perform?

The Hartford Bond Income Strategy Fund Class A shares placed in the 68th
percentile of its Lipper peer group for the 12 months ended December 31, 1999,
producing a total return of -2.71% versus the -1.72% return of the Lipper
Corporate Debt "BBB" rated Mutual Fund Universe.

Q. Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?

*    The Fund's increased weightings in mortgage passthroughs contributed
     positively to its performance relative to the market, as these securities
     outperformed the corporate market during the third and fourth quarters.

*    The Fund's overweighted position in commodity-related fixed income
     securities had a positive impact on Fund performance, as many of these
     companies staged a comeback from their 1998 lows.

*    The Fund's holdings in short-dated corporate issues acquired during the
     height of the market's Y2K concern aided portfolio performance during the
     second half of the year when concerns about the transition into the new
     year abated.

Q. What Is Your Outlook For 2000?

With the domestic economy firing on all cylinders and the isolated events of
1998's Russian default and last year's Y2K apprehension now behind us, we
believe that the Federal Reserve will tighten more aggressively this year. Our
portfolio positioning as we enter 2000 includes a shorter average maturity than
the market. We will increase our emphasis on the mortgage sector for two
reasons: The large percentage of the market which is trading at a discount to
par value and the favorable supply/demand balance which our traders currently
forecast. Among investment grade and high yield corporate issues, we will
continue to emphasize those securities that will benefit from rising global
economic growth, including the commodity-related issues mentioned above. We
underweight most consumer and financial-related issues, as these industries are
likely to experience greater fundamental challenges in a rising rate
environment.

                                                             primarily in debt securities.

     Each Fund is divided into Class A, Class B, Class C and Class Y shares.
     Class A shares are sold with a front-end load sales charge of up to 5.50%.
     Class B shares are sold with a contingent deferred sales charge which is
     assessed on the lesser of the net asset value of the shares at the time of
     redemption or the original purchase price, and declines from 5.00% to zero
     depending on the period of time the shares are held. Class C Shares are
     sold with a front-end load sales charge of up to 1% and a contingent
     deferred sales charge of up to 1%. Class Y shares are sold to certain
     eligible institutional investors without a sales charge. All classes of
     shares have identical voting, redemption, dividend, liquidation and other
     rights and the same terms and conditions, except that each class may have
     different expenses which may affect performance.

2.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Funds,
     which are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in
     the investment company industry:

     a)  Security Transactions--Security transactions are recorded on the trade
         date (date the order to buy or sell is executed). Security gains and
         losses are determined on the basis of identified cost.

                                       58
<PAGE>   59

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     b)  Security Valuation--Debt securities (other than short-term obligations)
         are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by an unaffiliated
         pricing service which determines valuations for normal institutional
         size trading units of debt securities. Mortgage securities are valued
         at the bid price. Short-term securities held in the Money Market Fund,
         are valued at amortized cost or original cost plus accrued interest
         receivable, both of which approximate market value. In the remaining
         Funds, short-term investments with a maturity of 60 days or less when
         purchased are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market
         value. Short-term investments purchased with a maturity of more than 60
         days when purchased are valued based on market quotations until the
         remaining days to maturity becomes less than 61 days. From such time
         until maturity, the investments are valued at amortized cost.

         Equity securities are valued at the last sales price reported on the
         principal securities exchange on which such securities are traded
         (domestic or foreign) or on the principal over-the-counter market on
         which such securities are traded, as of the close of business on the
         day the securities are being valued. If no sale took place on a
         particular day then such securities are valued at the mean between the
         bid and asked prices. The difference between amortized cost and market
         value for debt and equity securities is recorded in the Statement of
         Operations and accumulated in shareholders' equity.

         Securities quoted in foreign currencies are translated into U.S.
         dollars at the exchange rates at the end of each business day. Options
         are valued at the last sales price; if no sale took place on such day,
         then options are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices.
         Securities for which market quotations are not readily available and
         all other assets are valued in good faith at fair value by, or under
         the direction of, the Funds' Board of Directors. (See note 2f))

     c)  Foreign Currency Transactions--The accounting records of the Funds are
         maintained in U.S. dollars. All assets and liabilities initially
         expressed in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at
         prevailing exchange rates. Purchases and sales of investment
         securities, dividend and interest income and certain expenses are
         translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates
         of such transactions.

         The Funds do not isolate that portion of portfolio security valuation
         resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates on
         portfolio securities from the fluctuations arising from changes in the
         market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with
         the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments in the
         accompanying financial statements.

         Net realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses arising
         from sales of foreign currencies and the difference between asset and
         liability amounts initially stated in foreign currencies and the U.S.
         dollar value of the amounts actually received or paid are reported as
         net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions and net
         unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on translation of other assets
         and liabilities in foreign currencies, respectively.

     d)  Repurchase Agreements--A repurchase agreement is an agreement by which
         the seller of a security agrees to repurchase the security sold at a
         mutually agreed upon time and price. At the time the Funds enter into a
         repurchase agreement, the value of the underlying collateral
         security(ies), including accrued interest, will be equal to or exceed
         the value of the repurchase agreement and, in the case of repurchase
         agreements exceeding one day, the value of the underlying
         security(ies), including accrued interest, is required, during the term
         of the agreement, to be equal to or exceed the value of the repurchase
         agreement. Securities which serve to collateralize the repurchase
         agreement are held by each Fund's custodian in book entry or physical
         form in the custodial account of the Fund. Repurchase agreements are
         valued at cost plus accrued interest receivable. All repurchase
         agreements are executed through the Fund's custodian, State Street
         Bank.

     e)  Joint Trading Account--Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the
         Securities and Exchange Commission, the Funds may transfer uninvested
         cash balances into a joint trading account managed by The Hartford
         Investment Management Company (HIMCO) or Wellington Management Company
         LLP (Wellington). These balances may be invested in one or more
         repurchase agreements and/or short-term money market instruments.

     f)  Futures, Options on Futures and Options Transactions--The Funds enter
         into futures contracts to retain their cash balance and yet be exposed
         to the market, thereby providing the liquidity necessary to accommodate
         redemptions while at the same time providing shareholders with the
         investment return of a fully invested portfolio. A futures contract is
         an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a security at a set
         price on a future date. When the Funds enter into such contracts, they
         are required to deposit with their custodian an amount of "initial
         margin" of cash, commercial paper or U.S. Treasury Bills. Subsequent
         payments, called maintenance margin, to and from the broker, are made
         on a daily basis as the price of the underlying debt security
         fluctuates, making the long and short positions in the futures contract
         more or less valuable (i.e., mark-to-market), which results in an
         unrealized gain or loss to the Funds. The market value of a traded
         futures contract is the last sale price. In the absence of a last sale
         price, the last offering price is used. In the

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         absence of either of these prices, fair value is determined according
         to procedures established by the Funds' Board of Directors.

         At any time prior to expiration of the futures contract, the Funds may
         close the position by taking an opposite position which would operate
         to terminate the position in the futures contract. A final
         determination of maintenance margin is then made, additional cash is
         required to be paid by or released to the Funds and the Funds realize a
         gain or loss.

         The use of futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, elements of
         market and counter party risk which may exceed the amounts recognized
         in the Statements of Net Assets. Change in the value of the futures
         contracts may decrease the effectiveness of the Funds' strategies and
         potentially result in a loss.

         The premium paid by the Fund for the purchase of a call or put option
         is included in the Fund's Statement of Net Assets as an investment and
         subsequently "marked-to-market" through net unrealized appreciation
         (depreciation) of options to reflect the current market value of the
         option purchased as of the end of the reporting period. If an option
         which the Fund has purchased expires on its stipulated expiration date,
         the Fund realizes a loss in the amount of the cost of the option. If
         the Fund enters into a closing transaction, it realizes a gain or loss,
         depending on whether the proceeds from the sale are greater or less
         than the cost of the option. If the Fund exercises a put option, it
         realizes a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security and
         the proceeds from such sale will be decreased by the premium originally
         paid. If the Fund exercises a call option, the cost of the security
         which the Fund purchases upon exercise will be increased by the premium
         originally paid to buy the call.

         The Funds may write covered options. "Covered" means that so long as
         the Fund is obligated as the writer of an option, it will own either
         the underlying securities or currency or the option to purchase or sell
         the same underlying securities or currency having the expiration date
         of the covered option and an exercise price equal to or less than the
         exercise price of the covered option, or will establish or maintain
         with it's custodian for the term of the option a "segregated account"
         consisting of cash or other liquid securities having a value equal to
         the fluctuating market value of the option securities or currencies.
         The Fund receives a premium for writing a call or put option, recorded
         as a component of other liabilities on the Statement of Net Assets,
         which increases the Fund's return, recorded as a realized gain, if the
         option expires unexercised or is closed out at a net profit. Any loss
         realized from the covered option is offset by the gain realized on the
         sale of the underlying securities or currency. Covered options, at
         times before exercise or close out, are marked-to-market through net
         unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of options. There is a risk of
         loss from a change in value of such options which may exceed the
         related premiums received.

         The Fund's option activity was as follows for the year ended December
         31, 1999:

</TABLE>

     g)  Forward Foreign Currency Contracts--As of December 31, 1999, the
         Capital Appreciation Fund, the International Opportunities Fund and the
         Global Leaders Fund entered into forward foreign currency exchange
         contracts that obligate the Fund to repurchase/replace or sell
         currencies at specified future dates. The Fund enters into forward
         foreign currency contracts to hedge against adverse fluctuations in
         exchange rates between currencies.

         Forward contracts involve elements of market risk in excess of the
         amount reflected in the Statement of Net Assets. In addition, risks may
         arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability
         of counterparties to meet the terms of the contract and from
         unanticipated movement in the value of foreign currencies relative to
         the U.S. dollar.

    h)  Indexed Securities--The Funds may invest in indexed securities whose
        values are linked to changes in interest rates, indices, or other
        underlying instruments. The Funds use these securities to increase or
        decrease their exposure to different underlying instruments and to gain
        exposure to markets that might be difficult to invest through
        conventional
                                       60
<PAGE>   61

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         securities. Indexed securities may be more volatile than their
         underlying instruments, but any loss is limited to the amount of the
         original investment and there is a limit to the potential appreciation
         of the investment.

     i)  Federal Income Taxes--For federal income tax purposes, the Funds intend
         to continue to qualify as regulated investment companies under
         Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code by distributing substantially
         all of their taxable net investment income and net realized capital
         gains to their shareholders or otherwise complying with the
         requirements of regulated investment companies. Accordingly, no
         provision for federal income taxes has been made in the accompanying
         financial statements.

     j)  Fund Share Valuation and Dividend Distributions to Shareholders--Orders
         for the Fund's shares are executed in accordance with the investment
         instructions of the shareholders. Dividend income is accrued as of the
         ex-dividend date, except that certain dividends for foreign securities
         where the ex-dividend date may have passed, are recorded as soon as the
         Fund is informed of the ex-dividend data in the exercise of reasonable
         diligence. Interest income and expenses are accrued on a daily basis.
         The net asset value of each Fund's shares is determined as of the close
         of each business day of the New York Stock Exchange (the Exchange). The
         net asset value per share is determined separately for each class of
         each fund by dividing the Fund's net assets attributable to that class
         by the number of shares of the class outstanding. Orders for the
         purchase of a Fund's shares received prior to the close of the Exchange
         on any day on which the fund is open for business are priced at the
         per-share net asset value determined as of the close of the Exchange.
         Orders received after the close of the Exchange, or on a day on which
         the Exchange and/or the Fund is not open for business, are priced at
         the per-share net asset value next determined.

         Each Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net investment
         income and net realized capital gains to shareholders no less
         frequently than once a year. Normally, dividends from net investment
         income of the Small Company Fund, the Capital Appreciation Fund, the
         MidCap Fund, the International Opportunities Fund, the Global Leaders
         Fund and the Stock Fund will be declared and paid annually; dividends
         from net investment income of the Growth and Income Fund, the Dividend
         and Growth Fund and the Advisers Fund will be declared and paid
         quarterly; dividends from the net investment income of the High Yield
         Fund and the Bond Income Strategy Fund will be declared and paid
         monthly and dividends from net investment income of the Money Market
         Fund will be declared daily and paid monthly. Dividends from the Money
         Market Fund are not paid on shares until the day following the date on
         which the shares are issued. Unless shareholders specify otherwise, all
         dividends and distributions will be automatically reinvested in
         additional full or fractional shares of each Fund.

         Distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains
         are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which
         may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These
         differences include the treatment of non-taxable dividends, expiring
         capital loss carryforwards, foreign currency gains and losses, losses
         deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations. Permanent book
         and federal income tax basis differences relating to shareholder
         distributions will result in reclassifications to certain of the Funds'
         capital accounts (see Note 8).

    k)  Organizational Costs--As of June 30, 1998, costs incurred by new funds
        in connection with their organization, are expensed as incurred in
        accordance with Statement of Position 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of
        Start-Up Activities." Costs incurred by the Funds, prior to June 30,
        1998, in connection with their organization have been deferred and are
        being amortized on a straight line basis over five years. The
        unamortized deferred organizational costs of each Fund as of December
        31, 1999, are included in the excess of cash, receivables and other
        assets over liabilities or the excess of liabilities over cash,
        receivables and other assets, as applicable, in each Fund's Statement of
        Net Assets.

     l)  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 as of the date of the financial statements and
         the reported amounts of income and expenses during the period.
         Operating results in the future could vary from the amounts derived
         from management's estimates.

    m)  Restricted Securities--Each Fund is permitted to invest up to 15% of its
        net assets in illiquid securities, except for the Money Market Fund,
        which may invest up to 10% in such securities. "Illiquid Securities" are
        those that may not be sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of
        business, at approximately the price used to determine a Fund's net
        asset value per share. Each Fund may also purchase certain restricted
        securities, commonly known as Rule 144A securities, that can be resold
        to institutions and which may be determined to be liquid pursuant to
        policies and guidelines established by the Funds' Board of Directors.

</TABLE>

        The Funds have adopted Distribution and Service Plans in accordance with
        Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, to
        compensate the Distributor (HIFSCO) for the distribution of Class A,
        Class B and Class C shares and servicing the accounts of Class A, Class
        B and Class C shareholders. The Class A plan provides for periodic
        payments to brokers who provide services to accounts that hold Class A
        shares and for promotional and other sales related costs. The
        Distributor is compensated at an annual rate that may not exceed 0.35%
        of the average daily net asset value of Class A shares of the Fund, some
        or all of which may be remitted to brokers. Up to 0.25% of the fee may
        be used for shareholder servicing expenses with the remainder used for
        distribution expenses. The Class A Rule 12b-1 fee for each Fund has been
        voluntarily capped at 0.30%. The cap may be removed at any time. Some or
        all of the 12b-1 fee for Class B shares may be paid to broker-dealers
        for distribution and/or shareholder account services. Under the Class B
        Plan, the Fund pays the Distributor 1.00% of the average daily net
        assets of Class B shares that are outstanding for 8 years or less, 0.25%
        of which is intended as a fee for service provided to existing
        shareholders with the remainder used for distribution expenses. After
        eight years, Class B shares convert to Class A shares. Upon conversion
        to Class A shares the Class A plan described above will apply to those
        shares. For Class C shares, some or all of the fee may be re-allocated
        to broker-dealers for distribution and/or shareholder account services.
        Under the Class C plan, the Fund pays the Distributor 1.00% of the
        average daily new assets of Class C shares outstanding, 0.25% of which
        is intended as a fee for services provided to existing shareholders with
        the remainder used for distribution expenses. There is no distribution
        plan for Class Y shares.

     c)  Operating Expenses--Allocable expenses incurred by the Funds are
         allocated to each Fund in proportion to the average daily net assets of
         each Fund, except where allocation of certain expenses is more fairly
         made directly to the Fund. The Hartford has voluntarily agreed to limit
         the total operating expenses of the Class A, B, C and Y shares of all
         the Funds,

8.   RECLASSIFICATION OF CAPITAL ACCOUNTS:

     In accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
     Statement of Position 93-2, Determination, Disclosure, and Financial
     Statement Presentation of Income, Capital Gain, and Return of Capital
     Distributions by Investment Companies, the Funds have recorded several
     reclassifications in their capital accounts. These reclassifications had no
     impact on the net asset value of the Funds and are designed generally to
     present accumulated undistributed (distribution in excess of) net
     investment income and realized gain on investments on a tax basis which is
     considered to be more informative to the shareholder. The reclassifications
     are a result of permanent differences between GAAP and tax accounting for
     such items as foreign currency and passive foreign investment company
     (PFIC) income classifications, and net operating losses that reduce capital
     gain distribution requirements. Adjustments are made to reflect the impact
     these items have on current and future distributions to shareholders.
     Therefore the source of the Funds' distributions may be shown in the
     accompanying Statement of Changes in Net Assets as from investment income,
     from net realized gains on investments or from capital depending on the
     type of book and tax differences that exist. As of December 31, 1999, the
     Funds recorded the following reclassifications to increase (decrease) the
     accounts listed below.

     Under the arrangement, the Funds are required to own securities having a
     market value in excess of 300% of the total bank borrowings. The interest
     rate on borrowings varies depending on the nature of the loan. The facility
     also requires a fee to be paid based on the amount of the commitment, which
     has not been utilized. For the year ended December 31, 1999, the Funds did
     not have any borrowings under these facilities.

 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

 TO THE SHAREHOLDERS AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF
 THE HARTFORD MUTUAL FUNDS, INC.:
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets of The Hartford Mutual
Funds, Inc. (a Maryland Corporation) (consisting of The Hartford Small Company,
The Hartford Capital Appreciation, The Hartford MidCap, The Hartford
International Opportunities, The Hartford Global Leaders, The Hartford Stock,
The Hartford Growth and Income, The Hartford Dividend and Growth, The Hartford
Advisers, The Hartford High Yield, The Hartford Bond Income Strategy, The
Hartford Money Market Funds) (the Funds) as of December 31, 1999, and the
related statement of operations, statements of changes in net assets and
financial highlights for the periods presented. These financial statements and
financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of
December 31, 1999, by correspondence with the custodian bank. 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 and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each
of the respective Funds comprising The Hartford Mutual Funds, Inc. for the
periods presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
