                                                               Chairman's Letter


                   Dear Fellow Shareholder:

                   The fixed-income markets continued to be buffeted by overseas
  [PHOTO OF        turmoil during the first half of 1998, the period covered by
 Charles T.        this report. Early in January, the market was expecting an
   Bauer,          imminent reduction in rates by the Federal Reserve Board (the
Chairman of        Fed) to counteract the negative effects from the Asian 
the Board of       economic crises. However, as it became apparent that the U.S.
  THE FUND         economy was going to shrug off the Asian influence and
APPEARS HERE]      continue its strong growth, interest rates rose. The one-year
                   Treasury bill, whose yield had dropped as low as 5.10% in
                   January, backed up to the 5.45% area by late February.
                       Fueled by low interest rates and strong stock and labor 
                   markets, the U.S. economy continued its solid growth in the
                   first quarter of 1998, rising at a 5.4% annual rate. Despite
                   this rapid growth, inflation remained contained, the 
                   annualized rate running between 1% and 2%. As the second
                   quarter came to a close, it appeared that the economy was
                   finally slowing in response to the Asian influence and the
strike at General Motors; second-quarter economic growth was at an annual rate
of 1.4%.
    During this reporting period, the Fed remained on watch for signs of
incipient inflation, which never appeared. As the Asia situation continued to
unfold, the Fed remained hesitant to raise rates. As a result, the Federal Funds
target remained at 5.5% throughout the reporting period.

YOUR INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO

In light of the continued asset volatility and uncertainty in the markets, the
Fund maintained a weighted average maturity (WAM) in the 13- to 29-day range. As
of June 30, the WAM stood at 19 days. This strategy produced competitive yields.
At the end of the reporting period, seven-day yields were as follows: Class A
shares, 4.67%; Class B shares, 3.89%; Class C shares, 3.89%; and AIM Cash
Reserve Shares, 4.74%.
    AIM Money Market Fund seeks to provide as high a level of current income as
possible consistent with preservation of capital and liquidity by investing in
high-quality money market instruments including commercial paper, repurchase
agreements, and U.S. Treasury and U.S. government agency securities. An
investment in the Fund is neither insured nor guaranteed by the U.S. government,
and there can be no assurance that the Fund will be able to maintain a stable
net asset value of $1.00 per share.

OUTLOOK FOR THE FUTURE

As the third quarter opened, most market participants were expecting the Fed to
remain on the sidelines for the foreseeable future, though opinion remained
divided about its next move. Some were concerned that strong U.S. growth would
generate inflationary pressures, leading to a tighter Fed policy. Others
remained concerned that Asia's dampening effects on the U.S. would eventually
encourage the Fed to lower rates. With the flat yield curve and all the
uncertainty about the future direction of rates and where the stock market is
headed, Fund managers will continue to maintain the WAM toward the shorter end
of the spectrum.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
JUNE 30, 1998
(UNAUDITED)
 
NOTE 1-SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
AIM Money Market Fund (the "Fund") is a series portfolio of AIM Funds Group (the
"Trust"). The Trust is a Delaware business trust registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end series
management investment company consisting of nine separate series portfolios,
each having an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest. The Fund
currently offers four different classes of shares: Class A shares, Class B
shares, Class C shares and AIM Cash Reserve Shares. Class A shares are sold with
a front-end sales charge. Class B shares and Class C shares are sold with a
contingent deferred sales charge. AIM Cash Reserve Shares are sold at net asset
value. Matters affecting each portfolio or class will be voted on exclusively by
the shareholders of such portfolio or class. The assets, liabilities and
operations of each portfolio are accounted for separately. Information presented
in these financial statements pertains only to the Fund. The Fund's objective is
to provide as high a level of current income as is consistent with preservation
of capital and liquidity.
  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. The
following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund
in the preparation of its financial statements.

A.  Security Valuations -- The Fund's securities are valued on the basis of
    amortized cost which approximates market value. This method values a
    security at its cost on the date of purchase and thereafter, assumes a
    constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premiums.
B.  Securities Transactions, Investment Income and Distributions -- Securities
    transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains or
    losses on sales are computed on the basis of specific identification of the
    securities sold. Interest income, adjusted for amortization of
 
                                        5
<PAGE>   7
 
    premiums and discounts on investments, is recorded as earned from settlement
    date and is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends to shareholders are
    declared daily and are paid monthly.
C.  Federal Income Taxes -- The Fund intends to comply with the requirements of
    the Internal Revenue Code necessary to qualify as a regulated investment
    company and, as such, will not be subject to federal income taxes on
    otherwise taxable income (including net realized capital gains) which is
    distributed to shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income
    taxes is recorded in the financial statements.
D.  Expenses -- Distribution and transfer agency expenses directly attributable
    to a class of shares are charged to that class' operations. All other
    expenses which are attributable to more than one class are allocated among
    the classes.
 
NOTE 2-ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
 
The Trust has entered into a master investment advisory agreement with A I M
Advisors, Inc. ("AIM"). Under the terms of the master investment advisory
agreement, the Fund pays an advisory fee to AIM at an annual rate of 0.55% of
the first $1 billion of the Fund's average daily net assets plus 0.50% of the
Fund's average daily net assets in excess of $1 billion.
  The Fund, pursuant to a master administrative services agreement with AIM, has
agreed to reimburse AIM for certain administrative costs incurred in providing
accounting services to the Fund. During the six months ended June 30, 1998, AIM
was reimbursed $32,652 for such services.
  The Fund, pursuant to a transfer agency and service agreement, has agreed to
pay A I M Fund Services, Inc. ("AFS") for certain costs incurred in providing
transfer agency and shareholder services to the Fund. During the six months
ended June 30, 1998, the Fund paid AFS $395,131 for such services.
  The Trust has entered into master distribution agreements with A I M
Distributors, Inc. ("AIM Distributors") to serve as the distributor for the
Class A, Class B, Class C and the AIM Cash Reserve Shares of the Fund. The Trust
has adopted distribution plans pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act with
respect to the Fund's Class A shares, Class C shares and the AIM Cash Reserve
Shares (the "Class A and C Plan"), and the Fund's Class B shares (the "Class B
Plan") (collectively, the "Plans"). The Fund, pursuant to the Class A and C
Plan, pays AIM Distributors compensation at an annual rate of 0.25% of the
average daily net assets of the Class A shares and the AIM Cash Reserve Shares,
and 1.00% of the average daily net assets of the Class C shares. The Fund,
pursuant to the Class B Plan, pays AIM Distributors compensation at an annual
rate of 1.00% of the average daily net assets of the Class B shares. Of these
amounts, the Fund may pay a service fee of 0.25% of the average daily net assets
of the Class A, Class B, Class C or AIM Cash Reserve Shares to selected dealers
and financial institutions who furnish continuing personal shareholder services
to their customers who purchase and own the appropriate class of shares of the
Fund. Any amounts not paid as a service fee under the Plans would constitute an
asset-based sales charge. The Plans also impose a cap on the total sales
charges, including asset-based sales charges that may be paid by the respective
classes. During the six months ended June 30, 1998, the Class A, Class B, Class
C, and AIM Cash Reserve Shares paid AIM Distributors $523,080, $606,632, $61,156
and $450,185, respectively, as compensation under the Plans.
  AIM Distributors received commissions of $177,624 from sales of the Class A
shares of the Fund during the six months ended June 30, 1998. Such commissions
are not an expense of the Fund. They are deducted from, and are not included in,
the proceeds from sales of Class A shares. During the six months ended June 30,
1998, AIM Distributors received $126,074 in contingent deferred sales charges
imposed on redemptions of Fund shares. Certain officers and trustees of the
Trust are officers and directors of AIM, AIM Distributors and AFS.
  During the six months ended June 30, 1998, the Fund paid legal fees of $2,069
for services rendered by Kramer, Levin, Naftalis & Frankel as counsel to the
Board of Trustees. A member of that firm is a trustee of the Trust.
 
NOTE 3-INDIRECT EXPENSES
 
During the six months ended June 30, 1998, the Fund received reductions in
transfer agency fees from AFS (an affiliate of AIM) and reductions in custodian
fees of $5,498 and $8, respectively under expense offset arrangements. The
effect of the above arrangements resulted in a reduction of the Fund's total
expenses of $5,506 during the six months ended June 30, 1998.
 
NOTE 4-TRUSTEES' FEES
 
Trustees' fees represent remuneration paid or accrued to each trustee who is not
an "interested person" of AIM. The Trust may invest trustees' fees, if so
elected by a trustee, in mutual fund shares in accordance with a deferred
compensation plan.
