ANNUAL INVESTMENT ADVISER'S REPORT -- DECEMBER 31, 1999
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
January 19, 2000
Dear Shareholder:
The second half of 1999 was characterized by strong gains in business
activity and low levels of inflation, despite a sharp increase in oil prices.
The Fed continued to monitor the strength of the domestic economy, increasing
labor costs, a shrinking pool of labor, and levels of productivity. To stem an
increase in core inflation, two additional tightening moves were initiated by
the Fed. As the year drew to a close, potential Y2K market disruptions became
the primary focus of the Fed and the markets in general. In the Warburg Pincus
Money Market Fund ("the Fund"), providing liquidity for possible year-end
redemptions was a key objective for the Fund. Year-end rate pressures provided
excellent investment opportunities for the Fund. Investments into January 2000
were made at yields above 6%, or almost 50 basis points above yields available
in December 1999.
The annualized yield for the Fund for the seven-day period ended December 31,
1999 was 5.06%. Net assets increased 35% since June 30 and totaled $20.3 million
at year-end. The Fund's average weighted maturity was shortened to 27 days,
reflecting an inverted money market yield curve and Y2K liquidity concerns. In
anticipation of further tightening moves by the Fed early in 2000, the Fund is
positioned to both participate in any near-term rate increases and to extend out
the yield curve.
The Fund will continue to emphasize the highest quality securities in order
to provide competitive returns without compromising safety and stability of
principal. We appreciate your continued support and investment in the Fund.

ANNUAL INVESTMENT ADVISER'S REPORT -- DECEMBER 31, 1999
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
January 19, 2000
Dear Shareholder:
For the six-month period ended December 31, 1999, the economy continued to
progress based on strong fundamentals and a positive business environment. In
fact, even two increases in short-term rates by the Federal Reserve and a
hawkish statement portending additional tightening of monetary policy did not
dissuade consumers. Strong consumer demand, coupled with technologically
efficient producers, contributed to gross domestic product growth which will
exceed 4% for the year. Predicated on this environment, municipal money market
assets grew by $13 billion to $200 billion in 1999, but asset volatility and
market psychology caused tax-exempt money market rates to fluctuate within a
wide range.
Demand for tax-exempt money market securities remained strong during the
third and fourth quarters, particularly in liquid instruments like variable rate
demand notes. However, the two increases in short-term rates and a steepening
yield curve made term trades in the three-month to one-year range attractive
investments. The portfolio composition of Warburg Pincus WorldPerks Tax-Free
Money Market Fund ("the Fund") was constantly positioned to take advantage of
rate resets on variable rate notes and to capitalize on high credit quality
fixed coupon securities. As new issuance is increased in the third and fourth
quarters, ahead of possible rate increases, holdings of tax-exempt commercial
paper, short municipal bonds and general market notes were increased to capture
the 40-60 basis point spread over variable rate demand notes.
On December 31, 1999, the Fund's average weighted maturity was 43 days and
the 30-day annualized yield was 3.08% without waivers and reimbursements. We
appreciate your continued support and investment in the Fund.

WARBURG PINCUS WORLDPERKS MONEY MARKET AND
WORLDPERKS TAX FREE MONEY MARKET FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1999
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Warburg Pincus WorldPerks Money Market Fund (the "WorldPerks Money Market
Fund") and Warburg Pincus WorldPerks Tax Free Money Market Fund (the "WorldPerks
Tax Free Money Market Fund") are registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as diversified, open-end management
investment companies.
Investment objectives for each Fund are as follows: the WorldPerks Money
Market Fund is designed to provide investors with high current income consistent
with preservation of capital and liquidity; and the WorldPerks Tax Free Money
Market Fund is designed to provide investors with as high a level of current
income that is exempt from federal personal income taxes as is consistent with
preservation of capital and liquidity.
The net asset value of each Fund is determined twice daily as of noon and the
close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. Each Fund's investments
are valued under the amortized cost method, which approximates market value,
unless a Fund's Board of Directors determines that using this method would not
reflect an investment's value. Amortized cost involves valuing a Fund holding
initially at its cost and then assumes a constant amortization to maturity of
any discount or premium. The amortized cost method ignores any impact of
fluctuating interest rates.
Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest
income is recorded on the accrual basis. The cost of investments sold is
determined by use of the specific identification method for both financial
reporting and income tax purposes.
Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly.
Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and paid
annually, although the WorldPerks Money Market Fund may declare and pay
short-term capital gains, if any, periodically as the Board of Directors
determines. To the extent that a net realized capital gain can be reduced by a
capital loss carryover, such gain will not be distributed. Income and capital
gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax
regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
No provision is made for federal income taxes as it is each Fund's intention
to continue to qualify for and elect the tax treatment applicable to regulated
investment companies under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and
make the requisite distributions to its shareholders which will be sufficient to
relieve it from federal income and excise taxes.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- (CONT'D)
Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreement transactions. Under the terms
of a typical repurchase agreement, a Fund acquires an underlying security
subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase. Securities pledged as
collateral for repurchase agreements are held by the Fund's custodian bank until
the agreements mature. Each agreement requires that the market value of the
collateral be sufficient to cover payments of interest and principal; however,
in the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement,
retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amount 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.
The Funds have an arrangement with their transfer agent whereby interest
earned on uninvested cash balances was used to offset a portion of their
transfer agent expense. For the year ended December 31, 1999, each Fund received
credits or reimbursements under this arrangement as follows:
FUND YEAR ENDED
---- ----------
WorldPerks Money Market $1,861
WorldPerks Tax Free Money Market $1,263
2. INVESTMENT ADVISER AND SUB-ADVISER, CO-ADMINISTRATORS AND DISTRIBUTOR
On July 6, 1999, Credit Suisse Asset Management, LLC ("CSAM") became each
Fund's investment adviser as a result of the acquisition of Warburg Pincus Asset
Management, Inc. ("Warburg Pincus") by Credit Suisse Group ("Credit Suisse") and
the combination of Warburg Pincus with Credit Suisse's existing U.S. asset
management business. CSAM is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Credit
Suisse. For its investment advisory services, CSAM receives a fee calculated at
an annual rate of .40% of each Fund's average daily net assets. For the year
ended December 31, 1999, investment advisory fees, voluntary waivers and expense
reimbursements were as follows:

co-administrator. For its administrative services, CSAMSI, currently receives a

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
WARBURG, PINCUS WORLDPERKS MONEY MARKET FUND, INC. AND
WARBURG, PINCUS WORLDPERKS TAX FREE MONEY MARKET FUND, INC.:
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including
the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Warburg, Pincus WorldPerks Money
Market Fund, Inc. and Warburg, Pincus WorldPerks Tax Free Money Market Fund,
Inc. (the "Funds") at December 31, 1999, and the results of each of their
operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for
each of the two years (or periods) then ended and the financial highlights for
each of the years (or periods) presented, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States. These financial statements
and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are
the responsibility of the Funds' management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with auditing standards
generally accepted in the United States, which require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements,
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December
31, 1999 by correspondence with the custodians and brokers, provide a reasonable
basis for the opinion expressed above.
