WORLD MONITOR TRUST--SERIES C
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Interest Holder:

Enclosed is the report for the period from May 29, 1999 to June 25, 1999 for
World Monitor Trust--Series C (the 'Trust'). The net asset value of an interest
as of June 25, 1999 was $110.34, a decrease of 0.76% from the May 28, 1999 value
of $111.19. The 1999 calendar year-to-date return for the Trust was an increase
of 5.87% as of June 25, 1999. Additionally, the return for the quarterly period
from March 27, 1999 to June 25, 1999 was an increase of 3.40%.

Quarterly Market Overview

In the United States, as economic indicators strengthened and the Federal
Reserve Bank announced they would raise interest rates, the U.S. dollar rose
against most major currencies, especially European which were spurred by
deteriorating confidence in the Euro. Throughout the second quarter, several
issues weighed on world markets including significant price declines in global
long-term interest bonds, the U.S. Federal Reserve's tightening of monetary
policy and an increased supply of corporate debt. Furthermore, as the U.S.
economy generated strength, investors feared possible inflation. U.S. bond
prices fell, followed by European bonds which were depressed by rumors regarding
Italy's retreat from the European Economic Union. Global stock markets recorded
gains over the quarter, supported by solid corporate earnings and improved
economies (especially Asian). In the commodity markets, the energy sector
rallied as OPEC announced production cuts and lower inventories in oil and
gasoline. A consistent tone prevailed in the agricultural and soft commodity
markets as favorable seasonal growing conditions continued to weigh on prices.

Quarterly Performance of Series C

The Trust captured currency sector gains, particularly in Euro, Swiss franc, and
British pound positions. Deteriorating confidence in the Euro and Italy's
possible retraction from the European Economic Union caused the Euro to fall in
value towards the end of the quarter. The Swiss franc also fell against the U.S.
dollar after losing its safe haven attraction as the war in Kosovo ended and as
the Federal Reserve Bank increased interest rates. In June, the British pound
surpassed a 22-month low versus the U.S. dollar. The Bank of England lowered
their interest rate indicating there would be further cuts in the near future.

In the financial sector, gains were experienced in the Eurodollar and London
3-month bond. U.S. interest rate levels rose in June as strong consumer demand
and an improving manufacturing sector caused economic growth to exceed most
market expectations. As the U.S. equity and fixed income markets rose, the
European markets followed suit.

Profits were recorded in the energy sector from long positions in light crude,
natural gas and unleaded gas. Crude oil prices rallied as extremely hot U.S.
weather drove utility demand during June. The rally continued following
statements by oil ministers from Saudi Arabia and Mexico regarding the high
degree of compliance with the current OPEC production cuts. Additionally,
natural gas products experienced low quarterly inventories.

Losses were incurred in the metal sector. Base metals rallied sharply following
announcements that two major companies would significantly cut copper output. If
carried out, the estimated production cuts would almost eliminate the estimated
global copper supply surplus.

The estimated net asset value per interest as of July 29, 1999 was $111.03. Past
performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.
