TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS:
For the six-month period ended June 30, 1997, The Corporate Fund
Accumulation Program, Inc. provided a total investment return of +2.39%,
based on a change in per share net asset value from $20.69 to $20.62,
and assuming reinvestment of $0.556 per share income dividends.
The Environment
Shifting investor perceptions regarding the direction of the US economy
brought continued volatility to the US financial markets during much of
the six-month period ended June 30, 1997. At the beginning of the year,
Federal Reserve Board (FRB) Chairman Alan Greenspan cautioned investors
about a possible preemptive strike against inflation. While there were
few signs of accelerating inflation in the then-current data, he warned
that monetary policy acts with a lag and that it would be easier to
tighten policy at that time, as a precaution, rather than tighten later
and more sharply once inflation was evident. A mid-January market rally
was halted and interest rates began to back up at the beginning of
February in anticipation of a central bank move. As Chairman Greenspan
warned, the FRB tightened monetary policy on March 25, 1997.
Since the March tightening, economic data have been more benign. Retail
sales fell, and inflation remained tame. The yield on the long-term
bellwether Treasury bond peaked at 7.17% in mid-April and then began to
drop to its current level of 6.57%. This market rally was fueled by a
significant change in investor expectations regarding the economy and in
the outlook for interest rates. In early May there was widespread
agreement that the FRB was ready for another tightening of monetary
policy, and it was generally assumed that a further tightening would be
needed by July. However, the Consumer Price Index rose only 1.4% for the
first five months of 1997, compared with a 3.8% increase over the same
period in 1996. At the same time, retail sales figures continued to
decline. As a result, the May increase in interest rates did not occur,
and the bond rally continued to gain momentum. Increasing evidence of
noninflationary economic growth boosted investor confidence, which was
confirmed further shortly after the period's close when, as widely
expected, the FRB chose to leave monetary policy unchanged. This
confluence of positive indicators helped produce a significant rally in
the US stock market. A slight decline in interest rates resulted in a
modest positive total return for US fixed-income investments.
Current consensus expectations are for the US economy's rate of growth
to lose some momentum. Although gross domestic product growth for the
first quarter of the year was revised slightly upward to 5.9%, there are
indications that the second quarter's rate of growth will be lower. At
the same time, inflationary pressures remain contained, supported by the
June employment report showing moderate growth in wages along with a
slight increase in unemployment. It remains to be seen whether economic
activity moderates enough to rule out future FRB monetary policy
tightenings.
The US dollar continued to be strong relative to other currencies. In
Europe, investors are uncertain regarding the viability of economic and
monetary union, while scandals continue to depress investor confidence
in Japan. At present, it appears that the US economy is perceived most
favorably by investors for its ongoing growth and limited inflationary
pressures. If economic data releases continue to support this point of
view, the outlook for the US capital markets should remain positive.
Portfolio Matters
We began to take a more defensive position in the Program toward the end
of January. At that time, we reduced the duration from 5.32 years to
4.63 years. In the weeks following the FRB's March 25, 1997 tightening,
the bond market's yield rose to its peak of 7.17%. We continued to be
defensive and brought the duration to 4.38 years to seek to protect the
Program against the erosion of net asset value. We took a more
optimistic view of market conditions at the beginning of May, when we
began to invest more aggressively, and by the end of June had extended
the duration of the portfolio to 4.68 years. Currently, the average
portfolio maturity of the Program is 9.2 years. The average credit
quality remained the same at AA - as measured by Standard & Poor's Corp.
Most of the credit quality risk was taken in financial institutions,
followed by industrials and utilities. We hold underweighted positions
in Canadian bonds and Yankee bonds.
Because we expect a resumption of strength in the third and fourth
quarters of 1997, we believe that the FRB may resume a tightening mode
in the second half of the year. With the yield curve remaining
relatively flat, we expect further duration extensions to be moderate.
We do not anticipate any significant changes in the asset allocation mix
during the summer.
In Conclusion
We appreciate your ongoing interest in The Corporate Fund Accumulation
Program, Inc., and we look forward to sharing our investment strategy
with you in our upcoming annual report to shareholders.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Significant Accounting Policies:
The Corporate Fund Accumulation Program, Inc. (the "Program") is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a diver-
sified, open-end management investment company. These unaudited
financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion
of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the
interim period presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring
nature. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies
followed by the Program.
(a) Valuation of securities -- Portfolio securities are valued on the
basis of prices furnished by one or more pricing services which
determine prices for normal, institutional-size trading units. In
certain circumstances, portfolio securities are valued at the last sale
price on the exchange that is the primary market for such securities, or
the last quoted bid price for those securities for which the over-the-
counter market is the primary market or for listed securities in which
there were no sales during the day. Obligations with remaining
maturities of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which
approximates market value, unless this method no longer produces fair
valuations. Securities for which there exists no price quotations or
valuations and all other assets are valued at fair value as determined
in good faith by or on behalf of the Board of Directors of the Program.
(b) Income taxes -- It is the Program's policy to comply with the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated
investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable
income to its shareholders. Therefore, no Federal income tax provision
is required.
(c) Security transactions and investment income -- Security transactions
are recorded on the dates the transactions are entered into (the trade
dates). Interest income (including amortization of premium and discount)
is recognized on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses on
security transactions are determined on the identified cost basis.
(d) Prepaid registration fees -- Prepaid registration fees are charged
to expense as the related shares are issued.
(e) Dividends to shareholders -- Dividends from net investment income
are declared and paid monthly. Distributions of capital gains are
recorded on the ex-dividend dates.
