------------------------------------
ABOUT FUND PERFORMANCE AND PORTFOLIO DATA THROUGHOUT THIS REPORT:
o AIM Municipal Bond Fund's performance figures are historical and reflect
reinvestment of all distributions and changes in net asset value. Unless
otherwise indicated, the Fund's performance is computed at net asset value
without a sales charge.
o When sales charges are included in performance figures, Class A share
performance reflects the maximum 4.75% sales charge, and Class B and Class C
share performance reflects the applicable contingent deferred sales charge
(CDSC) for the period involved. The CDSC on Class B shares declines from 5%
beginning at the time of purchase to 0% at the beginning of the seventh
year. The CDSC on Class C shares is 1% for the first year after purchase.
The performance of the Fund's Class B and Class C shares will differ from
that of Class A shares due to differing fees and expenses.
o Because Class C shares have been offered for less than one year (since
8/4/97) all total return figures for Class C reflect cumulative total
returns that have not been annualized.
o The Fund's average annual total returns, including sales charges, for the
periods ended 6/30/98 are as follows: For Class A shares, one year, 1.67%;
five years, 4.29%; 10 years, 7.18%. For Class B shares, one year, 1.12%;
since inception (9/1/93), 3.87. For Class C shares, cumulative total return
since inception (8/4/97), 3.31%.
o The taxable-equivalent yield is calculated in the same manner as the 30-day
yield with an adjustment for a stated, assumed tax rate.
o The 30-day yield is calculated on the basis of a formula defined by the SEC.
The formula is based on the portfolio's potential earnings from dividends,
interest, yield-to-maturity or yield-to-call of the bonds in the portfolio,
net of all expenses and expressed on an annualized basis.
o The Fund's annualized distribution rate reflects the Fund's most recent
monthly dividend distribution multiplied by 12 and divided by the most
recent month-end net asset value.
o The Fund's investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an
investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their
original cost.
0 Past performance cannot guarantee comparable future results.
ABOUT INDEXES AND OTHER PERFORMANCE BENCHMARKS CITED IN THIS REPORT:
o Government securities, such as U.S. Treasury bills, notes, and bonds, offer
a high degree of safety and are guaranteed as to the timely payment of
principal and interest if held to maturity. Fund shares are not insured and
their value and yield will vary with market conditions.
MUTUAL FUNDS, ANNUITIES, AND OTHER INVESTMENTS
ARE NOT INSURED BY THE FDIC OR ANY OTHER GOVERNMENT AGENCY;
ARE NOT DEPOSITS OR OTHER OBLIGATIONS OF, OR GUARANTEED BY,
ANY BANK OR ANY AFFILIATE; AND ARE SUBJECT TO INVESTMENT RISKS,
INCLUDING POSSIBLE LOSS OF PRINCIPAL AMOUNT INVESTED.

The Chairman's Letter
Dear Fellow Shareholder:
When we last reported to you, for the fiscal year ended
[PHOTO OF December 31, 1997, equity markets worldwide were still
Charles T. shaken by the financial crisis in Asia. By June 30, 1998,
Bauer, the end of this six-month reporting period, most markets had
Chairman of recovered nicely, with domestic equities producing generous
the Board of returns and European markets outpacing the U.S. Only Asian
THE FUND markets remained in the doldrums. High-quality bonds have
APPEARS HERE] turned in a solid performance with generous real returns.
Good economic news has been arriving almost daily.
Inflation and joblessness in the U.S. have been at their
lowest levels in decades, consumer confidence at its
highest. The economic fundamentals in the U.S. appear sound,
and we at AIM remain cautiously optimistic that the current
economic expansion may continue for the foreseeable future
although market valuations are high compared to historical
standards.
By the close of this reporting period, markets had become less ebullient.
Equities had declined slightly from the heights reached earlier in the period.
Many participants in the U.S. equity markets voiced concern about prices that
continued rising despite slowing earnings growth, especially for larger
companies. The performance of European markets had exceeded everyone's
expectations. Asia's economic woes, especially the continuing recession in
Japan, which markets had shrugged off for a while, seemed more troublesome as
the reporting period closed.
In the face of such uncertainty, the best course for investors is to remain
realistic. We are now in the fourth year of unprecedented market advances. Even
accounting for the steep drop in equities in early August, after the close of
this reporting period, equities still have the potential to produce returns
above 30% again for the full year. We have never experienced this before, and it
may have fostered unrealistic expectations among investors, who would do well to
remember that the long-term average return for equities is closer to 10% per
year.
A well-diversified portfolio is still one of the most effective tools for
coping with market shifts because different asset classes and different national
markets tend to move independently of one another. Your financial consultant
remains your best source of information about how to allocate your investments
based on your goals and situation.
AIM FURTHER DIVERSIFIES ITS OFFERINGS
Shortly before the close of the reporting period, AIM broadened its offerings to
shareholders through the addition of the GT Global group of mutual funds. During
the next few months you will be receiving more details about this transaction
and the products it adds to The AIM Family of Funds --Registered Trademark--.
This transaction gives you, our shareholders, access to a greater variety of
investment choices. A complete list of the funds now included in The AIM Family
of Funds --Registered Trademark-- appears on the back cover of this report. We
encourage you to discuss with your financial consultant how these funds may fit
into your portfolio.
The transaction also helps strengthen AIM's position as a major participant
in the money-management industry worldwide. Such strength will enable us to
continue enlarging both the scope of our fund offerings and our menu of services
for our shareholders. AIM continuously reviews its products and services with a
view to enhancing our ability to help shareholders meet their investment goals.

The Managers' Overview
MUNICIPAL BONDS PROVIDE SOLID INCOME AT RELATIVELY LOW PRICES
Aroundtable discussion with the Fund management team for AIM Municipal Bond
Fund for the six months ended June 30, 1998.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q. PRICES OF HIGHER-QUALITY BONDS ROSE SIGNIFICANTLY TOWARD THE END OF THE
REPORTING PERIOD. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
A. During the reporting period, municipal bonds represented one of the better
bargains in the fixed-income market. Largely because of a dramatic surge in
new issue supply, municipal bonds were favorably priced in comparison with
federally taxable U.S. Treasury securities. At the same time, municipal
bonds with longer maturities offered more than 90% of the yield of long-term
U.S. Treasury issues. In line with these trends, your Fund continued to
provide solid current income (see chart below), exempt from federal taxes,
while maintaining share-price stability.
For the six months ended June 30, total return was 2.30% for Class A
shares and 1.90% for Class B and Class C shares. During the reporting
period, net asset value per share remained within a relatively narrow range
of $8.24 to $8.43 for Class A, B, and C shares, continuing the Fund's
long-standing record of relative price stability as illustrated by the
accompanying chart.
Q. WHAT WERE SOME OF THE MAJOR THEMES IN THE BOND MARKET DURING THE REPORTING
PERIOD?

Class C 4.32 7.15 3.14 5.20
*Assumes highest marginal federal tax rate of 39.6%.
================================================================================
A. A late rally in the bond market tended to be rather narrow in scope, with
high-quality, long-term bonds, particularly U.S. Treasury issues, being the
primary beneficiaries. These bonds benefited from renewed concerns that the
economic problems in Asia would undermine corporate profits in the U.S. and
other developed countries. That caused financial markets to be volatile
toward the end of the reporting period. Investors, seeking relatively safe
havens for their money, shifted more of their assets into higher-rated
bonds, particularly U.S. Treasury issues. The late rally in the bond market
was reflected in the yield on the benchmark 30-year U.S. Treasury bond,
which fell from 5.95% on April 30, 1998, to 5.63% at the end of the
reporting period.
During the four months prior to the rally, bond prices had remained
essentially flat. At one point, investors had hoped that the Federal Reserve
Board (the Fed) would lower interest rates to offset negative pressure from
the Asian crisis. However, inflation remained contained, so the Fed left
interest rates un changed. The failure of the Fed to ease monetary policy
dampened some of the enthusiasm for bonds until renewed concerns about the
Asian situation reversed this trend.
Q. WHAT WERE THE MAJOR TRENDS IN THE MUNICIPAL BOND MARKET?
A. When the U.S. Treasury market rallied, municipal bonds also appreciated in
value, but not nearly as much as Treasury issues. Foreign investors, who
helped boost the price of Treasuries, generally did not buy municipal bonds
since they don't receive tax advantages from owning municipal securities.
A significant increase in new-issue supply also kept municipal-bond
prices from rising dramatically. During the six months ended June 30, more
than $146 billion in new municipal debt was issued, the third-largest total
for the first half of a calendar year, according to The Bond Buyer. Falling
interest rates prompted many state and local governments to refinance
existing debt or to issue bonds to finance new projects.
At the same time municipal-bond supply was increasing, the federal
government was cutting back on the issuance of Treasury securities. As a
result, municipal-bond prices were relatively low--and yields high--in
comparison to Treasury issues.

</TABLE>
A. We emphasized revenue bonds, which are paid with income generated by various
projects such as hospitals, highways, and housing. The creditworthiness of
revenue bonds tends to be less sensitive to the political environment than
that of general obligation bonds, which are paid with tax dollars. Public
opposition to tax hikes is making it increasingly difficult for state and
local governments to raise taxes to support general obligation bond issues.
We particularly liked revenue bonds for essential services, such as
water and sewer service, gas and electric service, and solid waste disposal.
The demand for these services tends to remain constant regardless of
economic trends.
Q. ARE YOU MAINTAINING A HIGH-QUALITY PORTFOLIO?
A. Yes, as of June 30,1998, the Fund had an average portfolio quality rating of
AA/Aa as measured by Standard & Poor's (S&P) and Moody's Investors Service,
Inc., two widely known credit rating agencies. S&P and Moody's ratings are
historical and are based on analysis of the credit quality of the individual
municipal securities in the Fund's portfolio.
Approximately 58% of the portfolio's holdings were securities rated
AAA, and 92% of the portfolio was rated A or better. Credit-enhanced
securities-those backed by insurance or escrowed with U.S. Treasury
securities-composed about 55% of the portfolio.
Q. ISN'T THE FUND ALSO MANAGED FOR TAX EFFICIENCY?
A. Yes, we make every effort to avoid transactions that would result in capital
gains that are not offset by capital losses. For more than four years, the
Fund paid no taxable capital gains distributions or ordinary income
distributions.
Q. WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE IMMEDIATE FUTURE?
A. The fundamentals for the bond market, including municipal issues, appear to
be sound. The inflation rate remains low. And rapid economic growth, a
potential source of inflation, has shown signs of slowing. The Fed has left
interest rates unchanged for more than a year. Should inflation remain
contained, the Fed will be less inclined to change monetary policy. Such an
environment would be favorable for bonds. However, in testimony before
Congress in July, Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan warned that a tight labor
market could accelerate inflation.
We are particularly optimistic about municipal bonds because of their
relatively attractive prices and yields in comparison to U.S. Treasury
issues. During the first half of 1998, 40% of the assets flowing into mutual
funds were directed toward bond funds, compared to 15% for the same period
in 1997. Of the new money flowing into bond funds, 20% was directed toward
tax-exempt funds. We believe tax-exempt funds could continue to gain in
popularity as more Americans become subject to the higher tax brackets.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1998
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1-SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AIM Municipal Bond 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 three different classes of shares: Class A shares,
Class B shares and Class C shares. Class A shares are sold with a front-end
sales charge. Class B and Class C shares are sold with a contingent deferred
sales charge. Matters affecting each portfolio or class are 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 achieve a high level of current income exempt from federal income taxes
consistent with the preservation of principal by investing in a diversified
portfolio of municipal bonds.
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 -- Portfolio securities are valued based on market
quotations or at fair value determined by a pricing service approved by the
Board of Trustees, provided that securities with a demand feature exercisable
within one to seven days will be valued at par. Prices provided by the
pricing service may be determined without exclusive reliance on quoted prices
and may reflect appropriate factors such as institution-size trading in
similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of
issue, individual trading characteristics and other market data. Portfolio
securities for which prices are not provided by the pricing service are
valued at the mean between the last available bid and asked prices, unless
the Board of Trustees, or persons designated by the Board of Trustees,
determines that the mean between the last available bid and asked prices does
not accurately
13
<PAGE> 16
reflect the current market value of the security. Securities for which market
quotations either are not readily available or are questionable are valued at
fair value as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the
Trust's officers in a manner specifically authorized by the Board of
Trustees. Notwithstanding the above, short-term obligations with maturities
of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost.
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 is recorded as earned from settlement date
and is recorded on the accrual basis. It is the policy of the Fund to declare
daily dividends from net investment income. Such dividends are paid monthly.
Distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are recorded on
ex-dividend date and are paid annually.
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. The Fund has a capital loss
carryforward of $1,479,245 (which may be carried forward to offset future
taxable capital gains, if any) which expires, if not previously utilized, in
the year 2002. The Fund cannot distribute capital gains to shareholders until
the tax loss carryforwards have been utilized.
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 0.50% of
the first $200 million of the Fund's average daily net assets, plus 0.40% of the
Fund's average daily net assets in excess of $200 million to and including $500
million, plus 0.35% of the Fund's average daily net assets in excess of $500
million to and including $1 billion, plus 0.30% 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 $34,842 for such services.
The Fund, pursuant to a transfer agency and service agreement, has agreed to
pay A I M Fund Services, Inc. ("AFS") a fee for providing transfer agency and
shareholder services to the Fund. During the six months ended June 30, 1998, AFS
was paid $63,208 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 and Class C 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 and Class C 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 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 or Class C 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 and
Class C shares paid AIM Distributors $395,665, $252,597 and $14,224,
respectively, as compensation under the Plans.
AIM Distributors received commissions of $53,368 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 $24,249 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 $1,581
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) of $2,247 under an expense
offset arrangement. The effect of the above arrangements resulted in a reduction
of the Fund's total expenses of $2,247 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.
NOTE 5-BANK BORROWINGS
The Fund is a participant in a committed line of credit facility with a
syndicate administered by The Chase Manhattan Bank. The Fund may borrow up to
the lesser of (i) $1,000,000,000 or (ii) the limits set by its prospectus for
borrowings. The Fund and other funds advised by AIM which are parties to the
line of credit may borrow on a first come, first served basis. Interest on
borrowings under the line of credit is payable on maturity or prepayment date.
Prior to an amendment of the line of credit on May 1, 1998, the Fund was limited
to borrowing up to the lesser of (i) $500,000,000 or (ii) the limits set by its
prospectus for borrowings. During the six months ended June 30, 1998, the Fund
did not borrow under the line of credit agreement. The funds which are parties
to the line of credit are charged a commitment fee of 0.05% on the unused
balance of the committed line. The commitment fee is allocated among such funds
based on their respective average net assets for the period.
