DEAR SHAREHOLDERS:
 
We are pleased to provide this report for INA Investment Securities, Inc.,
covering the quarter ended September 30, 1995.
 
MARKET FINISHES UP DESPITE CORRECTION IN THIRD QUARTER
 
The bond market ended the quarter little changed, even though it experienced a
significant (30+ basis points) mid-term correction. The market reacted first
positively to an easing of monetary conditions by the Federal Reserve, then
negatively to signs of unexpectedly strong economic growth. It then rallied
through its beginning levels to close at 6.5% on the 30-year Treasury Bond,
based on good inflation news and mixed economic data.
 
FUND PERFORMANCE
 
The Fund returned 2.58% for the third quarter, and 14.08% over the first 9
months of 1995, after deduction of expenses and reinvestment of dividends,
based on net asset value of underlying fund assets. This performance, which
was aided by the strong showing of corporate holdings, exceeded the total re-
turn for the Lehman Government/Corporate Index of 1.91% by 67 basis points for
the quarter. Based on the per-share market value of the shares listed on the
New York Stock Exchange, the Fund returned 14.73% during the same period.
 
PORTFOLIO ACTIVITY
 
The portfolio remains fully invested. On September 30, 1995, corporate and
foreign bonds were approximately 65.6% of portfolio holdings, U.S.
government/agency securities 30.1%, and cash and other assets 4.3%. Per-share
net asset value was $18.99, up from $18.84 on June 30, 1995. A dividend of
$0.33 was declared during the third quarter.
 
OUTLOOK
 
Continued economic growth and low inflation auger well for the market in the
near term. While there is the potential for some disappointment if economic
growth over-accelerates, the current tone of the market is quite positive.
 
Sincerely,
 
/s/ R. Bruce Albro 

R. Bruce Albro, Chairman
INA Investment Securities, Inc.
