- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VARIABLES AFFECTING PERFORMANCE
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The investment manager invests in high-quality, short-term securities that are
consistent with each fund's specific objectives.

Our primary goal is to provide competitive yields while maintaining preservation
of principal and a high degree of liquidity. The specific securities portfolio
managers select have a major impact on reaching our goal. However, they must
continuously analyze other variables which affect share price stability and fund
performance. Traditionally, there are three important variables which are
factored into the decision-making process:

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MONETARY POLICY
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Monetary Policy is managed by the Federal Reserve Board (the "Fed") and has a
direct impact on short-term interest rates. If the Fed determines that inflation
is climbing, it will enact a policy to decrease or "tighten" the money supply.
With less money available, money lenders can command higher interest rates on
the money market securities they sell. On the other hand, if the Fed determines
the economy is heading toward a recession, it will increase or "ease" the money
supply. With more money for borrowers to access, the interest rates for money
market securities decline.

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INTEREST RATES
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Interest Rates will affect money fund yields because as investments mature, the
cash received will be reinvested at current money market rates which could be
either higher or lower. Reinvesting at higher interest rates generally means
higher yields for money funds and reinvesting at lower rates generally means
lower yields.

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AVERAGE LENGTH OF MATURITY
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Average Length of Maturity affects the timing of reinvesting cash from maturing
investments. If interest rates are expected to rise, decreasing the portfolio's
average length of maturity would enable the Fund to purchase higher-yielding
money market securities sooner. Conversely, if rates were expected to decrease,
the Fund would invest in money market securities with a longer length of
maturity in order to maintain higher yields longer.

PERFORMANCE REVIEW

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 AN INTERVIEW WITH PORTFOLIO MANAGER FRANK RACHWALSKI
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[RACHWALSKI PHOTO]

FRANK RACHWALSKI IS A MANAGING DIRECTOR OF SCUDDER KEMPER INVESTMENTS, INC. AND
LEAD PORTFOLIO MANAGER OF ZURICH MONEY FUNDS. MR. RACHWALSKI HOLDS A B.B.A. AND
AN M.B.A. DEGREE FROM LOYOLA UNIVERSITY. THE FOLLOWING IS MR. RACHWALSKI'S
REVIEW OF THE ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND FUND RESULTS DURING THE REPORT PERIOD AND
WHAT MAY HAPPEN IN THE MONTHS AHEAD.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Over the past six months, we saw very strong U.S. economic conditions with
growth above 5%. In addition, the economies in both Europe and Asia appeared to
be on the recovery platform, which meant reasonable growth in exports, keeping
the U.S. economy strong. The unemployment rate in the U.S. continued to decline
and consumer confidence continued to rise. This prompted the Federal Reserve
Board ("the Fed") to raise interest rates .25% on three separate occasions last
year to help stabilize the financial markets and economic conditions.

As a result, we took a defensive position with the Funds by keeping average
maturity relatively short, to take advantage of additional rate increases as
they occurred. Because of the uncertainties associated with the calendar change
to a new millennium, including mass concern whether or not systems would
function normally, we felt that we should be less aggressive. Therefore, we
positioned the Funds in order to provide liquidity for investors when and if
they needed it.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The views expressed in this report reflect those of the portfolio manager only
through the end of the period of the report, as stated on the cover.  The
The manager's views are subject to change at any time, based on market and other
conditions.

                                                                               7

As 1999 came to a close, it became clear the Fund would have sufficient
liquidity to meet demand. Also the market was reacting appropriately without a
lot of safety concerns, especially given that the Fed provided whatever
liquidity the market needed to function routinely in the final months of 1999.
Therefore, the Funds took advantage of income incentives being offered for
extending maturities into the new year, which were very attractive in both
taxable and tax-exempt issues.

Considering this information, we plan to continue with our slightly defensive
positioning and will manage each of the Funds so that we continue to offer you
attractive yield potential with a high degree of stability, making the funds an
excellent place for you to invest.

TERMS TO KNOW
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7-DAY AVERAGE
YIELD                   Every money market fund calculates its yield according
                        to a standardized method prescribed by the Securities
                        and Exchange Commission. Each day's yield is an average
                        taken over a 7-day period. This average helps to
                        minimize the effect of daily fluctuation in fund income,
                        and therefore yield.

MATURITY                Maturity is the time remaining before an issuer is
                        scheduled to repay the principal amount on a debt
                        security. Money market instruments are debt securities.

FEDERAL FUNDS
("FED FUNDS")           Commercial banks are required to keep these funds on
                        deposit at the Federal Reserve Bank in their district.
                        In order to meet these reserve requirements,
                        occasionally commercial banks need to borrow funds.
                        These funds are borrowed from banks that have an excess
                        of the required amount on hand in what is called the
                        "Fed Funds Market". The interest rate on these loans is
                        called the "Fed Funds Rate" and is the key money market
                        rate which influences all other short-term rates.

NOTES TO
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Zurich Money Funds (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end diversified management
investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust
currently offers three investment funds ("Funds"). Zurich Money Market Fund
invests primarily in short-term high quality obligations of major banks and
corporations. Zurich Government Money Fund invests exclusively in obligations
issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or its agencies and repurchase
agreements thereon. Zurich Tax-Free Money Fund invests in short-term high
quality municipal securities.

The Fund's financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles which require the use of management estimates.
The policies described below are followed consistently by the Fund in the
preparation of its financial statements.

SECURITY VALUATION. The Funds value all portfolio securities utilizing the
amortized cost method permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act
and pursuant to which the Funds must adhere to certain conditions. Under this
method, which does not take into account unrealized gains or losses on
securities, an instrument is initially valued at its cost and thereafter assumes
a constant accretion/amortization to maturity of any discount/premium.

REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements with
certain banks and broker/dealers whereby the Funds, through their custodian or
sub-custodian bank, receive delivery of the underlying securities, the amount of
which at the time of purchase and each subsequent business day is required to be
maintained at such a level that the market value is equal to at least the
principal amount of the repurchase price plus accrued interest.

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. Each Fund's policy is to comply with the requirements of
the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, which are applicable to regulated
investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable and tax-exempt income
to its shareholders. Accordingly, the Funds paid no federal income taxes and no
federal income tax provision was required.

DISTRIBUTION OF INCOME AND GAINS. All of the net investment income of the Funds
are declared as a daily dividend and are distributed to shareholders monthly.
Net investment income includes all realized gains (losses) on portfolio
securities.

INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME. Investment transactions are
accounted for on the trade date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual
basis. All discounts and premiums are accreted/amortized for both tax and
financial reporting purposes.

EXPENSES. Expenses arising in connection with a specific Fund are allocated to
that Fund. Other Trust expenses are allocated between the Funds in proportion to
their relative net assets.

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT. The Funds have a management agreement with Scudder Kemper
Investments, Inc. ("Scudder Kemper") and pay a monthly investment management fee
of 1/12 of the annual rate of .50% of the first $215 million of combined average
daily net assets declining to .25% of combined average daily net assets in
excess of $800 million. During the six months ended January 31, 2000, the Funds
incurred the following management fees:

SHAREHOLDER SERVICES AGREEMENT. Pursuant to a services agreement with the Funds'
transfer agent, Kemper Service Company ("KSvC") is the shareholder service agent
of the Trust. For the six months ended January 31, 2000, KSvC received
shareholder services fees for the Zurich Money Market Fund, the Zurich
Government Money Fund and the Zurich Tax-Free Money Fund of $2,577,472,
$321,968, and $269,822, respectively, of which $1,512,214, $303,525, and

OFFICERS AND TRUSTEES. Certain officers or trustees of the Trust are also
officers or directors of Scudder Kemper. During the six months ended January 31,
2000, the Trust made no payments to its officers and incurred trustees' fees of
$45,314 to independent trustees.

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. EXPENSE OFF-SET ARRANGEMENTS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Each Fund has entered into an arrangement with its custodian and transfer agent
whereby credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to
reduce a portion of the Fund's expenses. During the period, Zurich Money Market
Fund's, Zurich Government Money Fund's and Zurich Tax-Free Money Fund's
custodian and transfer agent fees were reduced by $4,889 and $50,828, $1,577 and
$6,994 and $1,020 and $7,751, respectively.

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. LINE OF CREDIT
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Funds and several Kemper funds (the "Participants") share in a $750 million
revolving credit facility for temporary or emergency purposes, including the
meeting of redemption requests that otherwise might require the untimely
disposition of securities. The Participants are charged an annual commitment fee
which is allocated pro rata among each of the Participants. Interest is
calculated based on the market rates at the time of the borrowing. Each Fund may
borrow up to a maximum of 33 percent of its net assets under the agreement.
