SUPPLEMENT TO PROSPECTUS
DATED MARCH 20, 1998
VA International Value Portfolio
VA International Small Portfolio
The description of the investment policies of the VA
International Value Portfolio and the VA International
Small Portfolio (collectively, the "Portfolios") is
revised as follows:
On September 1, 1998, the Malaysian government
announced a series of capital and foreign exchange
controls on the Malaysian currency, the ringgit, and on
transactions on the Kuala Lampur Stock Exchange, that
operate to severely constrain or prohibit foreign
investors, including the Portfolios, from repatriating
assets. While there is some confusion in the market
concerning the interpretations of these changes, it
appears that the Portfolios will not be permitted to
convert the proceeds of the sale of their Malaysian
investments into U.S. dollars prior to September 1, 1999.
As a consequence of these developments, the
Portfolios have stopped trading securities in Malaysia.
With respect to the current Malaysian investments owned
by the Portfolios, the Fund is presently valuing the
securities in good faith at fair value by discounting the
current market prices of the Malaysian securities and
discounting the U.S. dollar-ringgit currency exchange
rate. Pending further clarification from Malaysian
regulatory authorities regarding the controls identified
above, the Portfolios will treat their investments in
Malaysian securities as illiquid.
As of the date of this supplement, Malaysian
securities constitute approximately 3.44% of the net
asset value of the VA International Small Portfolio.
Malaysian securities constitute less than one percent of
the net asset value of the VA International Value
Portfolio.
The date of this Supplement is September 10, 1998.
