TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS January 31, 1996
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- -------------------------- It is a pleasure to submit to you MassMutual
Corporate Investors' Annual Report covering the
year ended December 31, 1995. This has been a
particularly rewarding year for investors after
weathering the difficult markets of 1994. The
Trust's results this year included increased net
investment income; a net asset value at a record
level; the realization of significant capital
gains; sixteen new private placement investments;
and the declaration of a special $.92 per share
dividend in addition to our regular four quarterly
dividends of $.70 per share.
Portfolio Activity
During the fourth quarter, net investment income
slid modestly to $.67 per share from $.68 per share
during the third quarter. As we mentioned in our
last quarterly report, two of our private placement
issuers, CompuCom Systems, and Exide Electronics,
forced conversion of our notes into stock. Since
this occurred in the fourth quarter, our earnings
were reduced. However, we were very active in the
private placement market during the quarter as we
closed six new investments totalling approximately
$13.4 million. The six new investments are Consumer
Product Enterprises, Inc., Maloney Industries,
Inc., Pharmaceutical Buyers, Inc., Sequentia, Inc.,
Unidata, Inc., and an add-on investment in Latin
- -------------------------- Communications Group. (A brief description of these
PRESIDENT STUART H. REESE companies is provided in the Schedule of
Investments.) The fixed income components of these
investments have an average coupon of over 11.5%
and offer the potential of capital gains via their equity features. For the
year, our sixteen new investments helped bring the Trust's net investment income
up to $2.63 per share from $2.33 per share in 1994.
We were also very active in the 144A market during the year, where we purchased
twenty-one issues at a cost of over $17.7 million. The 144A issues are
restricted in the sense that they can only be resold to qualified institutional
buyers. However, due to the number of qualified buyers participating in the
market, most essentially trade like public securities. Many of the 144A
securities we purchased this year were either sold at a gain, or have since
converted to public securities through registration and face no trading
restrictions. The remainder are listed in our Corporate Restricted Securities
section of the Schedule of Investments.
The Board of Trustees has approved a modification to the Trust's non-fundamental
investment policies. The Trust will now be able to purchase 144A investments and
syndicated bank loans without a concurrent investment by the Adviser,
MassMutual. Any such investment, however, must be readily marketable.
Equity Orientation
Medium- to long-term corporate debt obligations which provide the Trust with
current income and enable us to pay dividends and expenses, are the core of
Corporate Investors' portfolio. Oftentimes our investments provide the Trust
with the opportunity to participate in any future prosperity of a company by
means of an equity participation feature. Our equity participation is normally
obtained through conversion features, warrants to purchase common stock or the
direct purchase of the issuer's common stock. As of January 15, 1996, there were
twelve private placement portfolio companies, whose stock are publicly traded,
in which the combined stock market value exceeded the Trust's cost by
approximately $16.7 million. At December 31, 1995, equity related issues
accounted for approximately 42% of the portfolio.

Capital Gains
For the year, we were very successful in generating capital gains. Even after
some year-end tax-motivated selling, the Trust realized over $10.3 million in
net gains. The following table lists some of the larger capital gains realized
from partial or complete dispositions of investments from our private portfolio.
Capital gains in CompuCom Systems, Inc., Nu Horizons Electronics Corp., and
Sanitary Dash Manufacturing Co., Inc. were all realized in the fourth quarter.

Sanitary Dash Manufacturing Co., Inc. 1,589

</TABLE>
Of the total net gains realized during the year, roughly $3.3 million were from
our public portfolio. While Corporate Investors only invests in the public
markets with capital not immediately required for private placement commitments,
we continue to be successful in finding relative values and generating
additional income and gains for the Trust.
Performance
From a performance perspective, investors in the Trust did very well. With our
net asset value per share setting record-high levels during the year, we ended
1995 at $39.60, after dividends and taxes, as compared to $32.94 per share at
the end of 1994. The Trust's total return performance for the year ended
December 31, 1995 based on stock market price and reinvestment of dividends was
29.2%, while based on earnings and change in net asset value was 33.8%. In
comparison, the Lehman Brothers Government/Corporate Bond Index was up 19.2% and
the Standard & Poor's Industrial Stock Index was up 34.6% for the same period.
The following chart shows the performance of Corporate Investors over the last
twenty years based on earnings and change in net asset value compared to
recognized benchmarks.

On The Economic Front
The past year saw the continuation of a very good economic environment for
investors in both stocks and bonds. The U.S. economic growth rate as measured by
Gross Domestic Product continued to slow throughout the year from its heated
level of 4.1% in 1994 to roughly 2.5% in 1995. The Federal Reserve Board, which
had been raising rates during 1994 in an attempt to slow growth somewhat, was
able to change course and move rates lower. Because the economy is cyclical, the
Fed wanted growth to slow to a more moderate, sustainable level - a "soft
landing" from 1994's rapid pace - to prolong the positive part of the current
economic cycle.
While the Federal Reserve Board actually increased rates as late as February
1995, the bond market had begun to rally as early as November 1994 on the belief
that growth would slow enough to indicate a change in monetary policy. The
market was correct. The Fed's February rate increase of 1/2 point was followed
during the year by two cuts of 1/4 point each in July and December. Yields on
U.S. securities fell significantly during this period, which drove dramatic
price appreciation for Treasuries. The prices in most other bond sectors
followed suit, with 1995 resulting in one of the strongest bull markets for
bonds in history.
Backed by low interest rates and a strong bond market, stocks reached all-time
highs in 1995. The Dow Jones Industrial Average made new highs almost daily,
hitting a peak of 5216 and closing the year at 5117. In addition to support from
the bond market, stocks reacted to continued positive earnings reports, merger
and consolidation activity, an improving export picture and increasing
productivity and efficiency throughout corporate America.
Even in the face of a slower economy, sales and earnings remained strong through
the end of 1995. The U.S. had its biggest productivity gain on record in 1995
and exports grew, aided in the early part of the year by a weak dollar, which in
turn created improvements in trade. Going into 1996, we expect to see exports
remain strong, as U.S. businesses recognize that future growth will come in part
from operating in a global market. This opinion is supported by the heavy
outlays we have seen for business equipment, which should further enhance
competitiveness, productivity and export activity for the coming year.
We expect this environment will lead to a satisfactory flow of investment
opportunities for the Trust. Thank you for your continued support and interest
in Corporate Investors.
Sincerely,
Stuart H. Reese
President
Tax Information
Net investment income and short-term gain dividends received by shareholders
must be reported for federal income tax purposes as ordinary income. Dividend
payments made in May, August, November 1995, and January 1996 are taxable in the
1995 tax year. The Trust distributed $2.6266 per share of net investment income
and $1.0934 per share of short-term gains for the year 1995. In total, $3.72
represents income for tax purposes.
In years when net long-term capital gains are realized, the Board of Trustees
either votes to retain the gains for reinvestment, or to distribute them to
shareholders. For 1995, the Trustees voted to retain the gains for future
growth. These gains, even though not distributed to shareholders, are taxable.
In January 1996, the Trust distributed IRS Form 2439 to shareholders of record
as of December 29, 1995. Your proportionate share of the retained capital gains
is reported on Line 1 of the form ($1.332266 per share) and must be reported on
Schedule D of your income tax return as long-term capital gains. Since the Trust
paid the required federal income tax on the retained capital gains, you are
entitled to a tax credit. Your share of the tax paid by the Trust is shown on
Line 2 of IRS Form 2439 ($.466293 per share) and should be reflected on your tax
return as a tax credit (which will reduce your Federal income tax liability and
might result in a tax refund). Those shareholders whose accounts are not subject
to federal capital gains tax (e.g. charitable organizations, IRAs and Keogh
Plans) can claim a refund by filing Form 990-T. In addition, all shareholders
are entitled to increase, for federal income tax purposes, the cost basis of
their shares by the excess of Line 1 over Line 2. This amounts to $.865973 per
share.
The extent to which the following dividend payments qualify (as provided in the
Internal Revenue Code and subject to certain limitations set forth therein) for
the dividend received deduction for corporations, is shown in the table below.
Also shown is the amount of interest earned on U.S. Government obligations.

MML Series Investment Fund
To Our Shareholders
An Economic Soft Landing Is Achieved in U.S.
The past year saw the continuation of a very good economic environment for
investors in both stocks and bonds. The U.S. economic growth rate as measured by
Gross Domestic Product continued to slow throughout the year from its heated
level of 4.1% in 1994 to roughly 2.5% in 1995. The Federal Reserve, which had
been raising rates during 1994 in an attempt to slow growth somewhat, was able
to change course and even move rates lower. Because the economy is cyclical, the
Fed wanted growth to slow to a more moderate, sustainable level - a "soft
landing" from 1994's rapid pace - to prolong the positive part of the current
cycle.
As demand for goods slowed from 1994 levels, businesses began reducing their
inventories, which had started the year at high levels. This in turn slowed
order- and production-driven demand from the manufacturing sector, which exerted
further downward pressure on the growth rate, supported the cause for interest
rate cuts, and helped keep inflation at bay.
Stock and Bond Markets React
While the Federal Reserve actually increased rates as late as February 1995, the
bond market had begun to rally as early as November 1994 on the belief that
growth would slow enough to indicate a change in monetary policy. The market was
correct. The Fed's February rate increase of 1/2 point was followed during the
year by two cuts of 1/4 point each in July and December. Rates on Treasuries
fell significantly during this period, which drove dramatic price appreciation
for Treasuries. The prices in most other bond sectors followed suit, with 1995
playing out to be one of the strongest bull markets for bonds in history.
Backed by low interest rates and a strong bond market, stocks reached all-time
highs in 1995. The Dow Jones Industrial Average made new highs almost daily,
hitting a peak of 5216 and closing the year at 5117, and the S&P 500 rose
37.58%. In addition to support from the bond market, stocks reacted to continued
positive earnings surprises, merger and consolidation activity, an improving
export picture and growing productivity and efficiency throughout corporate
America.
Outlook for Economy, Markets Remains Positive
The forecast for the economy and markets appears favorable, though both should
be somewhat more moderate than they were during the past year. Economic growth
will probably slow further because employment and personal income - which are
important components of demand - are not strong enough to fuel increases in
demand-driven growth.
Even in the face of a slower economy, sales and earnings remained strong through
the end of 1995. The U.S. had its biggest productivity gain on record in 1995
and exports grew, aided in the early part of the year by a weak dollar, which in
turn created improvements in trade. Going into 1996, we expect to see exports
remain strong, as U.S. businesses recognize that future growth will come in part
from operating in a global market. This opinion is supported by the heavy
outlays we've seen for business equipment, which should further enhance
competitiveness, productivity and export activity for the coming year.
The Case for Value Investing
Because of uncertainty about the slowing in the economy throughout 1995, growth
investing, or buying stocks of companies whose earnings growth rates can surpass
that of the economy, took the lead last year. By the same token it was growth,
rather than income, that led to the dramatic appreciation of 1995's bond market.
With both markets currently at high levels in terms of price, we believe we will
see a return of superior performance from value investing strategies. Value
investing relies on capturing appreciation by "buying well" and seeking out
fundamental values, rather than buying above-average growth. Value investors
like the MML Series Investment Fund work to buy stocks and bonds that are either
temporarily out-of-favor with the markets, or that offer opportunities that have
not yet been recognized by the investment community at large.
With stocks and bonds at highs and an economy that is likely to continue to
slow, we expect both the stocks and bond markets to return to more "normal"
activity in terms of returns and volatility. In this type of environment, value
investing should continue to offer solid long-term results. Since security
selection should be very important in the coming year, your portfolio managers
will continue to rely upon hands-on research and careful analysis in an effort
to find the best opportunities for investors.

MML EQUITY
How has the Fund performed over the period?
The Fund has performed very well, with 1995 returns at nearly three times the
long-term average for stocks. Typically, our value-oriented style has not
outperformed the broad market indices in years where absolute gains have been as
robust as in 1995. Over the long term, however, our value strategy - focusing on
dividend-paying companies with strong balance sheets while their stocks are
selling at what we consider low prices - has been very successful.
How did large company stocks perform in 1995?
Large company stocks were the place to be this year. Benefiting from improved
productivity, falling interest rates and, through August, a weak dollar, large
companies were able to turn in earnings at levels more typical of small company
growth stocks, which drove their prices up. The market's focus on large cap
stocks benefited the Fund.
What strategic moves have you made within the portfolio?
Though we make investments based on researching individual companies rather than
their industry sectors, the biggest move we made over the period was increasing
our exposure to consumer non-durables companies, one of the best performing
sectors for the year. Our purchases in Albertson's, a major grocery concern and
several consumer goods companies such as American Brands and Kimberly-Clark,
benefited the portfolio considerably. These businesses typically are insulated
from slowing economic growth. We also increased our holdings in the very strong
financial services area, buying the stock of MBIA, a municipal bond insurer and
Safeco, a large property and casualty insurance firm. Our higher exposure to
financial services was another plus for the Fund - in fact, looking back, we
would have liked to have owned more. Over the year, the size of the Fund has
grown, and so has the weighted average market capitalization. This was a third
benefit during a period of large cap leadership.
What segments of the market are you currently targeting?
Our buying has shifted from consumer non-durables to more cyclical companies.
Because this area suffered price declines over the year as the market favored
sectors with more stable earnings, we've been able to buy stocks at what we
consider compelling values. We are buying and looking to buy companies that can
benefit from lower basic materials costs and thus improve their profit margins
regardless of the slower economy.
What is your outlook for the Fund?
After the past year, it's become more difficult to find reasonably-priced
stocks, but with inflation and long-term interest rates low, our outlook remains
favorable. We believe the coming year's market will be positive, but that it
will perform more like its historical average than it did in 1995. We expect to
see more typical levels of volatility than last year's market. During the past
year, the broad market advanced significantly. Going forward, we believe stock
selection will again become more important. That could benefit the Fund in that
strong stock selection is one of the major advantages of a research-driven value
strategy like ours.
MML MONEY MARKET
How has the Fund performed over the period?
The Fund has performed well, remaining on target with its goal of providing
principal preservation and a competitive level of current income by investing in
highly liquid short-term debt instruments. While longer-term interest rates
continued to decline over the majority of the year, rates for the extremely
short-term securities we focus on remained favorable, and even exceeded rates on
longer-term issues at certain times during the year.
What strategic moves have you made within the portfolio?
Over the course of the year, we made one major change. Both in the early part of
1995 when it was anticipated and then later when it actually happened, we
lengthened the average maturity of the Fund's portfolio on the likelihood of the
Federal Reserve's interest rate cuts. By lengthening our maturity, we hoped to
make use of available higher current income levels for as long as possible,
expecting that debt issued after a rate cut would offer lower income levels.
This strategy benefited the Fund by allowing us to maintain our income stream
while the market adjusted to the Fed's actions.
What is your outlook for the Fund?
The Fed eased, or lowered rates, twice in 1995 and may do so again in the first
few months of 1996 depending on the forecast for the economy. If it appears that
the economy has slowed too far, or if budget discussions are finalized, another
decline is a distinct possibility. However, we believe that any further declines
will not be significant. In this environment, we are continuing to extend
maturities in an effort to make the most of the current rates while maintaining
an emphasis on principal stability. Our outlook for the Fund remains optimistic,
though our performance as always will be tied to any changes in the Federal
Reserve's monetary policy.

MML MANAGED BOND
How has the Fund performed over the period?
The Fund's performance has been excellent. It compares favorably to its market
indices and has been outstanding on an absolute and historical basis. The past
year has been an extremely strong period for the bond market in general, with
bonds from almost every sector the Fund invests in benefiting from decreasing
interest rates and the price appreciation that accompanies rate declines.
What strategic decisions have you made within the portfolio as a result of lower
rates?
In response to declines in interest rates, our duration increased somewhat over
the period. A longer duration will help us take advantage of any potential
benefits from further changes in the rate structure. New supply in the market
tended to be longer, particularly in corporate bonds. This was due in part to
lower rates. So increasing our duration has allowed us to continue to track the
duration of the Lehman Government/Corporate Index, which is our benchmark. The
portfolio's average duration increased over the period from 4.85 years to 5.23
years.
What other strategic moves have you made within the portfolio?
During the year, the Fund grew from $121 million to $159 million in size. While
this was due in part to asset appreciation and in part to new investments, it
required a great deal of trading activity to become fully invested. Over the
period we initially increased our holdings of Treasuries, and then we sold some
of our Treasuries as the market improved. Corporates also performed well over
the period due to strong fundamentals and demand factors. Additionally, we
increased our holdings of mortgage-backed securities. Though mortgages are
typically sensitive to prepayment risk, our well-seasoned, well-structured
holdings remained strong throughout the period's declines in rates.
What areas of the market are you currently targeting?
As we believe the corporate market still offers strong potential, though within
a slowing economy, we're employing extensive credit research before investing in
corporate issues. We also continue to increase our exposure to the mortgage-
backed sector of the market, especially in adjustable rate mortgages, where
we're finding particularly attractive pricing. Pricing remains an important part
of our investment strategy. We continue to buy bonds across sectors wherever we
believe we've found appreciation potential through mispriced issues.
What is your outlook for the Fund?
This has been a dramatic year for the bond market and the Fund. While current
low inflation and slow to moderate economic growth lead us to believe there is
still room for appreciation in the market, it would be very difficult to imagine
repeating 1995's performance. Our outlook is for the extension of a positive
market environment, where income will again be an important component of total
return. Within this outlook, we expect the Fund to continue to provide high
total return potential consistent with reasonable risk by maintaining a
diversified portfolio of high quality bonds.
MML BLEND
How has the Fund performed over the period?
The Fund has performed quite well, backed by the dramatic appreciation declining
interest rates sparked in both the stock and bond markets. Because of the Fund's
focus on preservation of capital, however, it did not perform as well as some of
its more aggressive peers over this unusual time period. Though it will tend to
lag in strong bull markets, we believe our strategy is prudent for long-term
investors and that it will outperform over time.
Did your allocation between stocks, bonds and cash change over the period?
Our stock holdings will normally fall within a range of 50% to 70% of the
portfolio. In the beginning of the year, we were 53% invested in stocks and by
the end of year, they represented approximately 54%. Our core bond holdings at
the end of 1995 represented 15% of the portfolio, down from 19%. In bonds, a
flattening yield curve also indicated a shortening in the average life of our
portfolio. When the yield curve is flatter, investors are typically not
well-compensated for extending into longer-maturity bonds. While this excluded
us from some of the appreciation in the bond market, our bond portfolio
performed well. Our allocation decisions stem from a policy consistent with
preservation of capital. The remainder of the portfolio, approximately 31% up
from 28% a year ago, is invested in short-term securities.
What is your outlook for the Fund?
An environment of low inflation, favorable interest rates and slow to moderate
economic growth suggests the continuation of decent markets for both stocks and
bonds. While results should remain positive, we expect to see a return to more
normal periods for both markets. In stocks, we are positioning the Fund for
greater volatility and selectivity in the coming year and in bonds, we expect
income to again become the most consistent component of total return. We believe
the MML Blend Fund's conservative strategy should position it to perform well
during this more typical market environment.

of the MML Trust. The MML Trust is organized under the laws of the Commonwealth
of Massachusetts pursuant to an Agreement and Declaration of Trust.
The MML Trust was established by Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company
("MassMutual") for the purpose of providing vehicles for the investment of
assets of various separate investment accounts established by MassMutual and by
life insurance companies which are subsidiaries of MassMutual. Shares of the MML
Trust are not offered to the general public. MassMutual at December 31, 1995,
was the beneficial owner of 1.1% of MML Blend Fund's shares.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed
consistently by each Fund in the preparation of the financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
A. INVESTMENT VALUATION
Equity securities are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a
pricing service, authorized by the Board of Trustees, which provides the
last reported sale price for securities listed on a national securities
exchange, or on the NASDAQ national market system. If securities are
unlisted, or there is no reported sale price, the bid price of the prior
trade date will be used. Long-term bonds are valued on the basis of
valuations furnished by a pricing service, authorized by the Board of
Trustees, which determines valuations taking into account appropriate
factors such as institutional-size, trading in similar groups of securities,
yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading
characteristics and other market data.
For MML Equity Fund, MML Managed Bond Fund, and MML Blend Fund, short-term
securities with more than sixty days to maturity from the date of purchase
are valued at market and short-term securities having a maturity from the
date of purchase of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost. MML
Money Market Fund's portfolio securities are valued at amortized cost in
accordance with a rule of the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to
which MML Money Market Fund must adhere to certain conditions. It is the
intention of MML Money Market Fund to maintain a per share net asset value
of $1.00.
B. ACCOUNTING FOR INVESTMENTS
Investment transactions are accounted for on trade date. Dividend income is
recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual
basis. Premiums and discounts on short-term securities are amortized in
determining interest income.
The cost basis of long-term bonds is not adjusted for amortization of
premium or accrual of discount since MML Managed Bond Fund and MML Blend
Fund do not generally intend to hold such investments until maturity;
however, the MML Trust has elected to accrue for financial reporting
purposes, certain discounts which are required to be accrued for federal
income tax purposes.
Realized gains and losses on investment transactions and unrealized
appreciation and depreciation of investments are reported for financial
statement and federal income tax purposes on the identified cost method.
C. FEDERAL INCOME TAX
The MML Trust has established a policy for each of the Funds to comply with
the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated
investment companies. As a result, the Funds will not be subject to federal
income tax on any net investment income and any net capital gains to the
extent they are distributed or are deemed to have been distributed to
shareholders. Distributions are determined in accordance with income tax
regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
These differences are primarily due to the deferral of wash sale losses, and
paydowns on certain mortgage-backed securities. As a result, net investment
income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for a
reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such
period. Accordingly, the Funds may periodically make reclassifications among
certain of their capital accounts without impacting the net asset value of
the Funds.

D. Forward Commitments
Each Fund may purchase or sell securities on a "when issued" or delayed
delivery or on a forward commitment basis. The Funds use forward commitments
to manage interest rate exposure or as a temporary substitute for purchasing
or selling particular debt securities. Forward commitments are not used for
purposes of trading. Settlement for securities purchased on a forward
commitment basis can take place a month or more after the date of the
transaction. The Fund generally does not take delivery on these forward
commitments, but such commitments are instead settled with offsetting
transactions. When a forward commitment contract is closed, the Funds record
a realized gain or loss. Forward commitments involve a risk of loss if the
value of the security to be purchased declines prior to the settlement date.
The Funds could also be exposed to loss if they can not close out their
forward commitments because of an illiquid secondary market, or the
inability of counterparties to perform. The Fund monitors exposure to ensure
counterparties are credit worthy and concentration of exposure is minimized.
The Funds instruct the custodian to segregate liquid high quality assets in
a separate account with a current market value at least equal to the amount
of its forward purchase commitments. The price of the underlying security
and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at
the time the transaction is negotiated. The value of the forward commitment
is determined by management using a commonly accepted pricing model and
fluctuates based upon changes in the value of the underlying security and
market repo rates. Such rates equate the counterparty's cost to purchase and
finance the underlying security to the earnings received on the security and
forward delivery proceeds. The Funds record on a daily basis the unrealized
appreciation/depreciation based upon changes in the value of the forward
commitment. At December 31, 1995, the cost (value) of forward commitments to
purchase securities amounted to $53,105,836 ($54,494,208) for the MML Blend
Fund.
E. ESTIMATES
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 and
disclosure of contingent 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.
3. CAPITAL LOSS CARRYFORWARD
The accumulated net realized loss on investments for the MML Money Market Fund
results in a capital loss carryforward of $9,734 which is available for federal
income tax purposes to offset future capital gains. Of the total carryforward,
$485 expires December 31, 1997, $1,639 expires December 31, 1998, $1,204 expires
December 31, 2000, $201 expires December 31, 2001, $5,364 expires December 31,
2002 and $841 expires December 31, 2003.
The accumulated net realized loss on investments for the MML Managed Bond Fund
results in a capital loss carryforward of $840,829 which is available for
federal income tax purposes to offset future capital gains. This carryforward
expires December 31, 2002.
4. INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT FEE
MassMutual provides all investment advisory, management and administrative
services needed by the Funds. For acting as such, MassMutual receives a
quarterly fee from each Fund at the annual rate of .50% of the first
$100,000,000 of the average daily net asset value of each Fund, .45% of the next
$200,000,000, .40% of the next $200,000,000, and .35% of any excess over
$500,000,000.
MassMutual has entered into an investment sub-advisory agreement with Concert
Capital Management, Inc. ("Concert"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Babson
Acquisition Corporation which is a controlled subsidiary of MassMutual. The
agreement provides that Concert manage the assets of MML Equity Fund and the
assets of the Equity Sector of MML Blend Fund. MassMutual pays Concert a
quarterly fee equal to an annual rate of .13% of the average daily net asset
value of MML Equity Fund and the Equity Sector of MML Blend Fund.
MassMutual has agreed, at least through April 30, 1997, to bear the expenses of
the Funds to the extent that the aggregate expenses (excluding each Fund's
management fee, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary
expenses) incurred during each Fund's fiscal year exceed .11% of the average
daily net asset value of each Fund for such year. For the year ended December
31, 1995, MassMutual was not required to reimburse the Funds for any expenses.

Report Of Independent Accountants
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
MML Series Investment Fund
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of each of
the Funds which comprise the MML Series Investment Fund (a Massachusetts
business trust), including the schedules of investments, as of December 31,
1995, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the
statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then
ended, and the financial highlights for each of the ten years in the period then
ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the
responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of
December 31, 1995 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each
of the Funds as of December 31, 1995, the results of their respective operations
for the year then ended, the changes in their respective net assets for each of
the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of
the ten years in the period then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
