INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Trustees of
Putnam Investments, Inc.
Profit Sharing Retirement Plan:
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets
available for benefits of Putnam Investments, Inc. Profit Sharing
Retirement Plan as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related
statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's
Trustees. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements 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 are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. 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, such financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the net assets available for benefits of
Putnam Investments, Inc. Profit Sharing Retirement Plan as of
December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the changes in its net assets
available for benefits for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion
on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The
supplemental schedules listed in the Table of Contents are
presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a
required part of the basic financial statements, but are
supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's
Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These schedules
are the responsibility of the Plan's Trustees. Such schedules
have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our
audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are
fairly stated in all material respects when considered in
relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

PROFIT SHARING RETIREMENT PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION - The accompanying financial statements of
Putnam Investments, Inc. Profit Sharing Retirement Plan (the
"Plan") have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.
Security transactions are recognized on a trade-date basis.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date; interest
income is recorded as earned. The change in the difference
between fair value and the cost of investments, including
realized gains and losses, is reflected in the statements of
changes in net assets available for benefits as net appreciation
(depreciation) in fair value of investments.
INVESTMENT VALUATION - Investments in equity securities and
mutual funds are stated at fair value as determined by quoted
market prices based on the last reported sales prices, or the
reported net asset value per share on the last business day of
the plan year. Investments in insurance contracts are stated at
contract value which equals cost plus accrued interest.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES - The Plan obtained its latest determination
letter on March 29, 1996 in which the Internal Revenue Service
("IRS") stated that the Plan, as then designed, was in compliance
with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code
(the "Code"). The plan administrator believes that the Plan is
currently designed and being operated in compliance with the
applicable requirements of the Code. Therefore, no provision for
income taxes has been included in these financial statements.
ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES - Expenses of the Plan have been paid by
Putnam Investments, Inc. and its subsidiaries, but such payment
is at their discretion.
BENEFITS - Benefits to participants are recorded when paid.
ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Plan's
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.
2. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN
The following description of the Plan is provided for general
information purposes only. Participants should refer to the plan
document for a more complete description of the Plan's
provisions.
(a) GENERAL - The Plan, as amended and restated January 1, 1989,
is a defined contribution plan sponsored by Putnam Investments,
Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") for the benefit of its
employees and is intended to qualify as a profit-sharing plan
under Section 401(a) of the Code and to constitute a qualified
cash or deferred arrangement under Section 401(k) of the Code.
The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").
2. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN (CONTINUED)
(b) INVESTMENT PROGRAMS - The Plan allows each participant to
elect to have employer contributions and reallocated forfeitures
invested in one or more of the following authorized investment
vehicles:
(1)Any one or a combination of the open-end management investment
companies, excluding tax-exempt income funds, for which a
subsidiary of Putnam Investments, Inc. acts as an investment
adviser.
(2)Any one or a combination of contracts with insurance companies
which guarantee principal and interest at a fixed rate.
(3)Marsh & McLennan Companies, Inc. common stock.
(4)Other investment options approved by the Board of Directors of
Putnam Investments, Inc., the Trustees of the Plan, and the Chief
Executive Officer of Marsh & McLennan Companies, Inc. There were
no investments in this option at December 31, 1995, 1994 or 1993.
Employer contributions and forfeitures must generally be
allocated to not more than eight investments, with apportionments
to be no less than 1% per investment.
Participants may also elect to have their voluntary contributions
invested in any one or more of the authorized investments noted
above in (1), (2), (3) and/or (4), provided such elections are
allocated to not more than eight authorized investments, with
apportionments to be at least 1% to any one investment.
With proper written notice, participants may elect to change
their investment in either their participation or voluntary
accounts twice during a fiscal quarter, not to exceed six
investment changes per year.
(c)CONTRIBUTIONS - The Plan covers substantially all of the
employees of Putnam Investments, Inc. and its subsidiaries that
have adopted the Plan. Employer contributions are determined at
the discretion of each company's Board of Directors.
Contributions may not exceed the amount permitted as a deduction
under the applicable provisions of the Code. Employer
contributions, by company, for 1995, 1994 and 1993 were as
follows:

2. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN (CONTINUED)
CONTRIBUTIONS (CONTINUED) - Voluntary employee contributions are accepted within
certain limits as defined in the Plan. Participants making contributions are
not allowed to withdraw any appreciation on such contributions before
termination of employment, but may withdraw their contributions, subject to
certain restrictions. Employee contributions, by company, for 1995, 1994 and
1993 were as follows:

Total $7,367,884 $5,212,966

</TABLE>
(d) FORFEITURES - Forfeitures of invested employer contributions
are reallocated among the remaining eligible participants one
year after the fiscal year in which the forfeitures occur.
Reallocation of forfeitures amounted to $470,260 in 1995,
$488,291 in 1994, and $1,317,892 in 1993.
(e) PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS AND VESTING - The Plan provides that
the market value of investments in participant accounts shall be
determined each quarter. Unrealized appreciation or
depreciation, equal to the difference between actual cost and the
quoted market price of the investments at the applicable
valuation date, is recognized in determining the value of each
fund. The change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation,
investment income received and realized gains or losses on
investments sold or distributed are allocated to participants'
accounts based on each participant's proportionate interest in
the investment.
Employer contributions and forfeitures are allocated annually
based on a uniform percentage of eligible earnings per
participant. This percentage was 15% in 1995 and 1994.
An employee is not eligible to become a participant until the
completion of twelve months of continuous service. A participant
must be employed on the last day of the Plan's fiscal year
(December 31) to be eligible for their portion of the employer's
contribution for that year. The vesting of participants, other
than voluntary contributions, is as follows:
VESTED
INTEREST
Years of continuous service:
Less than two None
Two but less than three 25 %
Three but less than four 50 %
Four but less than five 75 %
Five or more 100 %
If a participant has reached age 60 100 %
2. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN (CONTINUED)
(e) PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS AND VESTING (CONTINUED) - Participants
are automatically fully vested in their voluntary contributions.
Distributions are based on the vested portion of the
participant's account valuation as of the liquidation date
coinciding with or following the next valuation date after the
individual ceases to be a participant. Such distributions are
made within a reasonable period after the individual ceases to be
a participant, but not later than sixty days after the close of
the fiscal year. The Plan allows terminated participants to
maintain their accounts in the Plan, but such accounts do not
share in contributions and forfeiture reallocations. The value
of these accounts will continue to be determined each quarter.
(f)SALARY SAVINGS CONTRIBUTIONS - It is the intention of the
Trustees that the salary savings program be qualified under
Section 401(k) of the Code. The terms of the salary savings
agreement provide that the participants' earnings contribution to
the Plan will be deducted from their payroll, and that the
employer shall contribute this amount to the Plan on behalf of
the participants. Investments into the various investment
vehicles are at the discretion of the participant. The market
value of assets relating to the salary savings program at
December 31, 1995 and 1994 was $24,342,189 and $15,379,768,
respectively.
(g) LOANS - Upon the approval of the loan committee, appointed
by the Trustees, participants of the Plan may borrow from their
accounts, to alleviate financial need as defined by the Plan, an
amount which, when added to all other loans to the participant,
would not exceed the lesser of (1) a maximum borrowing limit of
$50,000 or (2) 50% of the vested balance of the participant's
account. All loans shall be secured by the participant's account
and will be repaid through payroll deductions according to a
fixed repayment schedule which includes interest at a rate
consistent with area lending institutions personal loan rates.
Loans outstanding at December 31, 1995 and 1994 were $2,482,411
and $2,275,230, respectively.
