LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
================================================================================
TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS:
The fiscal year ended January 31, 1998 was one of healthy growth, low inflation,
favorable fiscal policy and a strong dollar. For most of 1997, the Federal
Reserve maintained a bias to raise short term interest rates, but it made only
one increase in the Federal Funds rate from 5.25% to 5.50% in March.
With only one move by the Federal Reserve, Wellington Management Company, LLP,
the advisor of the SEI Daily Income Trust, shortened average weighted maturities
across the majority of the funds versus the last fiscal year.
For money market investors, yields for the funds increased over the previous
year. Not only did yields increase, but growth for the 1997 year was phenomenal
for money market funds. Total assets for all money market funds topped a
trillion dollars $(1.09), as of January 1998. The year showed a shift from bank
deposits and individual securities to mutual funds which allowed assets to grow
by $177 billion, a 19% jump.
Looking into the 1998 fiscal year, the Federal Reserve will begin the year with
a continuation of its "wait and see" approach as it monitors developments on
both domestic and international fronts. The U.S. economy is likely to slow from
its robust pace in 1997 as domestic forces cannot sustain its current pace. On
the global front, the inevitable slowdown in Asia will also dampen domestic
growth in a rebalancing of trade. As always, Wellington Management Company, LLP
will continue to seek safe investment opportunities that provide the competitive
yields our shareholders expect.
We thank you for your continued confidence in the SEI Daily Income Trust, and we
look forward to serving your investment needs in the future.
Sincerely
/s/Signature
Edward D. Loughlin

The U.S. bond market enjoyed a strong year for the period ending January 31,
1998 as yields on the 30-year Treasury bond declined approximately 1 full
percentage point, ending at 5.80%. The economy entered the period exhibiting
signs of economic growth, high employment levels, and building inflationary
concerns. In an effort to combat these inflationary expectations while balancing
growth, the Federal Reserve (the "Fed") tightened monetary policy 25 basis
points at its March meeting. With the new targeted level for federal funds at
5.50%, the fixed income markets responded by building expectations for another
increase. With the economy continuing on its growth course, the Federal
Government began realizing increased revenues. This translated into excess cash
which was applied to the reduction of the Treasury's short-term debt
outstanding. Despite the decreased supply, the U.S. markets continued to offer
global investors, and foreign central banks in particular, relatively high
rates. It was during this time that participants began to realize that sustained
low inflation and moderate economic growth was possible, and Treasury yields
began to decline. The theme of continued low inflation, relatively high real
interest rates, favorable fiscal policy, and strong, but not threatening
economic growth, continued into the summer months, pushing yields lower. In the
fourth quarter, the Asian market turmoil began and continued economic growth
began to be questioned. A flight to quality provided the catalyst for the U.S.
bond market to extend the rally in prices. Throughout this period, the short-end
of the yield curve remained relatively stable, causing the yield curve to
flatten. At one point, the spread between the 2 year and the 30-year fell to 28
basis points, the lowest level in 3 years. The rally continued as the new year
progressed, only to experience a mild back-up during the last half of January as
the Asian crisis began to settle down.
Focusing on the money market sector, yields on the one year Treasury bill traded
within an almost 100 basis point range over a period that experienced only one
action by the Fed. Similar to the bond market, rates moved higher during the
first quarter due to expectations that multiple actions by the Fed would be
required to control economic growth and inflation. As these expectations
diminished and shifted toward easing, bills rallied from their peak of 6.10% to
5.10% by mid-January of this year. Demand for such high quality products was
driven by the attractiveness of domestic rates to international participants, a
declining need by the U.S. Treasury to issue debt, and increasing demand for
money market products. This increase in demand was partially brought

MONEY MARKET AND FIXED INCOME REVIEW
================================================================================
SEI DAILY INCOME TRUST -- JANUARY 31, 1998
on by increasing profitability in the corporate sector as well as by improved
tax revenues in the municipal sector. As an example, IBC Financial Data reported
that assets of all money funds pierced the $1.0 trillion figure for the first
time in history during the third calendar quarter.
The SEI Daily Income Trust portfolios entered the fiscal year structured with a
more cautious approach, emphasizing a shorter average weighted maturity due to
the Fed's apparent bias toward raising rates. Such a structure was believed to
be more responsive to upward changes in short-term rates. When this bias toward
higher rates became less certain, the portfolios were extended in an effort to
take advantage of higher yields offered by issues with longer maturities. As the
Asian crisis developed, the money market sector was the beneficiary as cash
inflows resulted from investors looking for a safe haven. As the situation
continued to unfold, foreign central banks sold money market securities in order
to provide funds to support local currencies. Yields on treasury bills continued
to be viewed as relatively expensive, first due to the increased demand from
foreign central banks, then due to the decreased supply resulting from increased
revenues to the Treasury. As we look ahead, the impact from developments in Asia
will take time to be analyzed by U.S. market participants. In the meantime, the
Fed is expected to remain on "hold," maintaining its bias toward easier
policies.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FUND PERFORMANCE
================================================================================
SEI DAILY INCOME TRUST -- JANUARY 31, 1998
SHORT-DURATION GOVERNMENT PORTFOLIO
WELLINGTON MANAGEMENT COMPANY
OBJECTIVES. The Short-Duration Government Portfolio seeks to preserve
principal value and maintain a high degree of liquidity while providing current
income. The Portfolio invests in those securities issued by the U.S. Government
and backed by its full faith and credit, and securities issued by the U.S.
Government agencies. The weighted average maturity of the Portfolio is up to
three years. The Portfolio seeks to provide a higher level of sustainable income
and total return than money market investments, with limited principal
fluctuations.
STRATEGY. The Portfolio's weighted average maturity will be managed to
take advantage of anticipated changes in the direction of interest rates. The
distribution of maturities for individual securities will also be managed to
take advantage of expected changes in the shape of the yield curve. Maturities
will typically be laddered across the permitted maturity range to provide
reinvestment opportunities. In order to minimize risk, the Portfolio is
generally not invested in a bulleted structure, meaning individual securities
are not clustered around a specific maturity. Treasury and agency securities
will form the core of the Portfolio, and agency-backed mortgage securities will
be utilized when their yields are judged to be attractive relative to those of
Treasuries and agencies.
ANALYSIS. For the fiscal year ended 1998, the Short-Duration Government
Portfolio Class A Shares posted a 7.23% return compared to a 7.19% return for
its benchmark, the Merrill Lynch 1-3 Year Treasury Index.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FUND PERFORMANCE
================================================================================
SEI DAILY INCOME TRUST -- JANUARY 31, 1998
SHORT-DURATION GOVERNMENT (CONCLUDED)
During the rising interest rate environment experience in the first
quarter, the shorter duration posture was the largest contributor to
performance. Further, a defensive scenario emphasizing callable structures
typically found in government agencies and mortgage-backed products enhanced
returns slightly.
As the outlook for continued growth and a prolonged period of low
inflation became accepted by the marketplace and interest rates declined, the
importance of the Portfolio's duration posture increased. During this shift in
sentiment, the value of mortgage-backed product structure increased and was a
contributor to performance throughout the year. Likewise, exposure to callable
agencies were reduced in favor of 5-year Treasury issues. This was primarily due
to expectations that callable issues could be retired early, and therefore would
not perform as well as non-callable issues.
As the decline in interest rates continued into the winter months,
securities with call characteristics continued to be reduced in favor of issues
without such features. Flight-to-quality buying benefited performance of issues
without call structures. Furthermore, callable bonds are likely to see their
durations shorten further as rates move lower. Looking ahead, government
agencies are planning to increase issuance, which should cause a widening of
spreads.
INTERMEDIATE-DURATION GOVERNMENT PORTFOLIO
WELLINGTON MANAGEMENT COMPANY
OBJECTIVES. The Intermediate-Duration Government Portfolio seeks to
preserve principal value and maintain a high degree of liquidity while providing
current income. The Portfolio invests in those securities issued by the U.S.
Government and backed by its full faith and credit and securities issued by the
U.S. Government agencies. The weighted average maturity of the Portfolio is
three to five years. The Portfolio seeks to provide a higher level of
sustainable income and total return than money market investments, with limited
principal fluctuations.
STRATEGY. The Portfolio's weighted average maturity will be managed to
take advantage of anticipated changes in the direction of interest rates. The
distribution of maturities for individual securities will also be managed to
take advantage of expected changes in the shape of the yield curve. The
Portfolio focuses on Treasury and agency securities, and agency mortgage-backed
securities will be utilized when their prospects for enhancing income and total
return are judged to be attractive.
ANALYSIS. For the fiscal year ended January 31, 1998, the
Intermediate-Duration Government Portfolio gained 9.15%, underperforming the
Merrill Lynch 3-5 Year U.S. Treasury Index return of 9.29%. The Portfolio's
exposure to non-Treasury issues was the largest detractor from performance
during the period. The slightly longer duration posture was the primary driver
of relative performance.
6
<PAGE>
INTERMEDIATE-DURATION GOVERNMENT (CONCLUDED)
Strength in the domestic economy and perceived price pressures prevailed
during the early months of the Portfolio's fiscal year, which lead the Federal
Reserve to increase interest rates at its March meeting. With the increase in
rates early in the fiscal year, the securities that contributed the most to
performance were high quality agency and well structured mortgage-backed issues.
After this tightening, a longer term strategy of extending the duration posture
was deemed appropriate, especially as real interest rates approached the 4-5%
area. This was based on the assumption that additional tightenings in monetary
policy were possible, albeit limited.
As the interest rate environment changed from one of tightening to a
neutral policy, the structure of high quality, mortgage paper became more
important, and these additions to the portfolio contributed positively to
performance. Exposure to the mortgage market in this manner served to increase
yield, while only marginally increasing call risk. As interest rates continued
to decline, prepayment risk increased, thus those issues that recently traded at
a discount, began trading closer to par. Looking ahead, exposure to the Treasury
sector is likely to increase given the relative richness of the mortgage sector.
The concerns over the Asian economies appear to be warranted, as the
impact will likely result in slowing economic growth and subdued inflationary
expectations. The backdrop remains constructive given an improved federal
deficit position.

GNMA PORTFOLIO
WELLINGTON MANAGEMENT COMPANY
OBJECTIVES. The GNMA Portfolio seeks to preserve principal value and
maintain a high degree of liquidity while providing current income. The
Portfolio invests primarily in mortgage-backed securities issued by the
Government National Mortgage Association and backed by the full faith and
credit of the U.S. Government.
STRATEGY. The Portfolio's investment strategy emphasizes the distribution
of security coupon rates, the weighted average coupon rate, and the selection
of appropriate underlying mortgage types. The selection of coupon rates affects
the sensitivity of the Portfolio to changes in the reinvestment risk associated
with loan prepayment. The Portfolio will

therefore tend to purchase somewhat lower coupons when interest rates are
expected to fall, and somewhat higher coupons when interest rates are expected
to be stable or rising.
ANALYSIS. For the fiscal year ending January 31, 1998, the GNMA Portfolio
gained 9.52%, outperforming the Lipper GNMA Average return of 9.28% and the
Salomon 30-Year GNMA Index return of 9.30%. The Portfolio's emphasis on discount
coupon structures and modestly longer duration posture was positive,
particularly during the final four months of the fiscal year. In addition,
remaining fully invested in the mortgage market and avoiding Treasury securities
boosted performance relative to the peer group universe.
The broad bond market experienced declines early in the period, as
expectations of a near-term Fed rate increase were substantiated as the Federal
Reserve raised its targeted federal funds rate by 25 basis points at the March
meeting. After a "hiccup" in early April in reaction to the rate hike, the
market began an ascent which lasted, with mild interruptions, throughout the
remainder of the fiscal year. News of a moderating economy and the nonexistence
of inflationary pressures fueled the markets. In addition, towards the end of
the period, the U.S. investment-grade bond market was a major benefactor of
worldwide capital market volatility, as the demand for Treasury securities
surged in a global flight-to-quality surrounding the crisis in Southeast Asia.
In fact, 30-year bonds reached the lowest yield level ever since the Treasury
began issuing that maturity in 1977. Overall, long-term bonds yields declined
dramatically during the fiscal year, dropping from 6.79% to 5.81%. In contrast,
yields on securities with less than one year to maturity were largely unchanged
throughout the period as the Fed kept the short-end of the curve anchored.
During the above market scenario, mortgage-backed securities ("MBS")
provided the best market sector performance on a duration-adjusted basis. The
10-year Treasury yield, which is used as a base for most mortgage calculations,
declined to 5.51%. As this rate continued to fall, refinancing fears reemerged
in the MBSmarket. Throughout most of the 99 basis point decline in 10-year
yields during the fiscal year, the mortgage market had apparently ignored the
associated rise in prepayments. Mortgage investors remained complacent as a
result of the lower-than-expected prepayment streams which had been experienced
over the past few years. However, as the end of the period approached,
prepayment fears began to escalate as mortgage investors considered the
potential risk of the largest wave of mortgage refinancings since 1993. Discount
securities, which actually benefit from rising prepayments, began to outperform
in conjunction with the escalation of these fears.
Going forward, the Portfolio will likely remain fully invested in
GNMA mortgage securities. Mortgages are still viewed as offering attractive
relative value. Given expectations of a continued downward trend in bond yields,
the Fund will also maintain the current longer duration posture and emphasis on
discount coupon issues.

CORPORATE DAILY INCOME PORTFOLIO
WELLINGTON MANAGEMENT COMPANY
OBJECTIVES. The Corporate Daily Income Portfolio seeks to provide higher
current income than that typically offered by a money market portfolio while
maintaining a high degree of liquidity and minimal principal volatility. The
Portfolio invests in U.S. Treasury and agency obligations, short average life
mortgage-backed issues, and short-term investment grade corporate securities.
The duration of the Portfolio will range between six and eighteen months.
STRATEGY. The Corporate Daily Income Portfolio seeks to provide a return
in excess of the Merrill Lynch 1-Year Treasury Index and to manage risk through
the adviser's use of sector strategies, security selection and duration
management. In determining the average maturity and duration position of the
Portfolio, the adviser considers the shape of the yield curve, the extent of a
yield change, and the period of time over which rates are likely to rise, fall
or remain stable. Investment in short average life mortgage-backed issues and
short-term investment grade securities is emphasized when relative spreads are
attractive and incremental yields serve to enhance total return.
ANALYSIS. For the fiscal year ended 1998, the Corporate Daily Income
Portfolio Class A shares returned 6.29% compared to its benchmark, the Merrill
Lynch 1-Year Treasury Index return of 6.11%.
As the Portfolio's fiscal year began, market participants were looking for
the Fed to restrict monetary policy so that sub-3% growth was attainable. Under
this scenario, the Portfolio was positioned defensively, emphasizing a shorter
average maturity which entailed the use of floating rate securities. At this
point, tactical extension was viewed as a viable option only to the extent that
the investor might be compensated for the possibility of additional tightenings
by the Fed. Products offering an excess spread to similar maturity Treasury
issues were the primary contributors to performance.
When expectations for the direction of interest rates became neutral, the
long end of the yield curve began to rally. Therefore both the Portfolio's
longer structure and the use of spread product contributed positively to
performance. Holdings of discounted mortgage-backed product also provided
positive performance relative to other mortgage

securities. This was due to the expectation that higher coupon issues would be
more subject to prepayment risk, thus decreasing their relative value.
As the summer months progressed, the issuance of asset-backed securities
increased, making this sector more attractive. The Portfolio identified several
bank instruments that offered value, and therefore exposures to Treasuries and
agency paper were reduced.
Uncertainty in the Asian markets resulted in a flight-to-quality rally
that strongly favored Treasuries. Once again, the longer duration posture of the
portfolio proved beneficial. Long-term, the manager is positive on the market,
and is expected to focus on spread product over the coming months.

================================================================================
SEI DAILY INCOME TRUST -- JANUARY 31, 1998
1. ORGANIZATION
SEI Daily Income Trust (the "Trust") was organized as a Massachusetts business
trust under a Declaration of Trust dated March 15, 1982.
The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, as a diversified, open-end investment company with ten operational
Portfolios: the Money Market Portfolio, the Government Portfolio, the Government
II Portfolio, the Prime Obligation Portfolio, the Treasury Portfolio, the
Treasury II Portfolio (collectively the "Money Market Portfolios"), the
Short-Duration Government Portfolio (formerly the Short-Term Government
Portfolio), the Intermediate-Duration Government Portfolio (formerly the
Intermediate-Term Government Portfolio), the GNMA Portfolio, and the Corporate
Daily Income Portfolio (collectively the "Fixed Income Portfolios"). The
Portfolios' prospectus provides a description of each Portfolio's investment
objectives, policies and strategies. The assets of each portfolio are
segregated, and a shareholder's interest is limited to the Portfolio in which
shares are held.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Portfolios.
SECURITY VALUATION--Investment securities of the Money Market Portfolios
are stated at amortized cost which approximates market value. Under this
valuation method, purchase discounts and premiums are accreted and amortized
ratably to maturity and are included in interest income.
Investment securities of the Fixed Income Portfolios which are listed on a
securities exchange for which market quotations are available are valued by an
independent pricing service at the last quoted sales price for such securities
on each business day. If there is no such reported sale, those securities for
which market quotations are readily available are valued at the most recent
quoted bid price. Unlisted securities for which market quotations are readily
available are valued at the most recently quoted price with estimates of such
values determined under certain market conditions using procedures determined in
good faith by the Board of Trustees. Debt obligations with sixty days or less
remaining until maturity may be valued at their amortized cost.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES--It is each Portfolio's intention to continue to
qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable
income and net capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes
is required.
RECLASSIFICATION OF COMPONENTS OF NET ASSETS--The timing and
characterization of certain income and capital gains distributions are
determined annually in accordance with federal tax regulations which may differ
from generally accepted accounting principles. As a result, net investment
income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for the
reporting period may may differ significantly from distributions during such
period. These book/tax differences may be temporary or permanent in nature. To
the extent these differences are permanent, they are charged or credited to
paid-in-capital or accumulated net realized gain, as appropriate, in the period
that the differences arise. Accordingly, the following permanent differences,
have been reclassified to/from the following accounts:
UNDISTRIBUTED
ACCUMULATED NET INVESTMENT
PAID-IN-CAPITAL REALIZED GAIN INCOME
PORTFOLIOS (000) (000) (000)
------------ -------------- -------------- --------------
Government II $ -- $(21) $ 21
Prime Obligation -- (23) 23
Treasury II -- 10 (10)
Short Duration
Government (20) -- 20
Intermediate Duration
Government (71) (14) 85
GNMA (47) -- 47
Corporate Daily Income -- 3 (3)
NET ASSET VALUE PER SHARE--The net asset value per share is calculated on
each business day separately for each class of each Portfolio. In general, it is
computed by dividing the assets of each Portfolio, less its liabilities, by the
number of outstanding shares of the Portfolio.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME--Security transactions are
accounted for on the trade date of the security purchase or sale. Costs used in
determining net realized capital gains and losses on the sale of securities are
those of the specific securities sold, adjusted for the accretion and
amortization of purchase discounts and premiums during the respective holding
period. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis.
36
<PAGE>
Purchase discounts and premiums on securities held in the "Fixed Income
Portfolios" are accreted and amortized over the life of each security and
recorded as interest income, using the effective interest method.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS--Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase
agreements are held by each Portfolio's custodian bank until maturity of the
repurchase agreements. Provisions of the agreements and procedures adopted by
the Adviser ensure that the market value of the collateral, including accrued
interest thereon, is sufficient in the event of default by the counterparty. The
Portfolios also invest in tri-party repurchase agreements. Securities held as
collateral for tri-party repurchase agreements are maintained by the broker's
custodian bank in a segregated account until maturity of the repurchase
agreement. Provisions of the agreements ensure that the market value of the
collateral, including accrued interest thereon, is sufficient in the event of
default. If the counterparty defaults and the value of the collateral declines
or if the counterparty enters into an insolvency proceeding, realization of the
collateral by the Portfolio may be delayed or limited.
EXPENSES--Expenses that are directly related to one of the Portfolios are
charged directly to that Portfolio. Other operating expenses of the Trust are
prorated to the Portfolios on the basis of relative net assets. Class specific
expenses, such as the distribution fees, are borne by that class. Income, other
expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses of a Portfolio are
allocated to the respective class on the basis of the relative net asset value
each day.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS--Distributions from net investment income are
declared on a daily basis and are payable on the first business day of the
following month. Any net realized capital gains on sales of securities for a
Portfolio are distributed to its shareholders at least annually.
USE OF ESTIMATES--The financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles which require the use of
estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
3. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
SEI Fund Management (the "Manager") provides management, administrative and
shareholder services to the Portfolios for an annual fee of .33% of the average
daily net assets of the Money Market Portfolio, .19% each of the average daily
net assets of the Government II and Prime Obligation Portfolios, .24% each of
the average daily net assets of the Government, Treasury and Treasury II
Portfolios, .35% each of the average daily net assets of the Short-Duration
Government, Intermediate-Duration Government and Corporate Daily Income
Portfolios, and .32% of the GNMA Portfolio. However, the Manager has agreed to
waive its annual fee in an amount which limits total annual expenses (including
the annual management fee) of the following Portfolios to the following amounts
set forth in the Management Agreement (expressed as a percentage of each
Portfolio's daily net assets):
MONEY PRIME
MARKET GOV'T GOV'T II OBLIGATION TREASURY TREASURY II
------ ----- -------- ---------- -------- -----------
Class A .20% .20% .20% .20% .20% .25%
Class B .50% .50% .50% .50% .50% .55%
Class C .70% .70% .70% .70% .70% .75%
CNI Class -- .85% -- -- -- --

SHORT- INTERMEDIATE CORPORATE
DURATION DURATION DAILY
GOV'T GOV'T GNMA INCOME
-------- ------------ ---- ---------
Class A .45% .50% .60% .35%
Class B .75% -- -- --
In the event that the total annual expenses of a Portfolio, after
reflecting a waiver of all fees by the Manager and Adviser, exceed the specified
limitation, the Manager has agreed to bear such excess. In addition to
contractual specified expense limits, the Manager may voluntarily waive a
portion of its fee for both the Money Market and Fixed Income Portfolios in
order to limit the operating expenses of the Portfolios.
SEI Investments Distribution Co. ("the Distributor"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of SEI Investments and a registered broker-dealer, acts as the
distributor of the shares of the Trust under the Distribution Agreements. The
Trust has adopted plans under which firms, including the Distributor,
37
<PAGE>
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
================================================================================
SEI DAILY INCOME TRUST-- JANUARY 31, 1998
that provide shareholder and administrative services may receive compensation
thereof. The Class A, Class B, Class C, CNI Class and Sweep Classes each have
shareholder servicing plans (the "Shareholder Servicing Plans") which provide
for servicing fees payable to the Distributor of .25% of the average daily net
assets attributable to that particular class. For the Class A shares of the
Money Market Portfolios, Short-Duration Government Portfolio and Corporate Daily
Income Portfolio, no such fees were levied since the inception of the plan. In
addition to the Shareholder Servicing Plans, the Class B and Class C shares have
adopted administrative services plans that provide for administrative service
fees payable to the Distributor of up to .05% and .25%, respectively, of the
average daily net assets attributable to that class.
The Treasury Portfolio Sweep Class and the Government Portfolio CNI Class
shares have adopted distribution plans ("the Plans") pursuant to Rule 12b-1
under the 1940 Act, in addition to the shareholder servicing plan. The Plans
provide for payments to the Distributor at an annual rate of .50% of a
Portfolio's average daily net assets attributable to CNI Class and Sweep Class
shares. These payments are characterized as "compensation," and are not directly
tied to expenses incurred by the Distributor; the payments the Distributor
receives during any year may therefore be higher or lower than its actual
expenses. These payments may be used to compensate CNI Class and Sweep Class
shareholders that provide distribution related services to their customers.
Certain officers and/or Trustees of the Trust are also officers and/or
Directors of the Manager. The Trust pays each unaffiliated Trustee an annual fee
for attendance at quarterly, interim, and committee meetings. Compensation of
officers and affiliated Trustees is paid by the Manager.
4. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND CUSTODIAN AGREEMENT
Under an Investment Advisory Agreement dated September 30, 1983, Wellington
Management Company serves as the Investment Adviser of the Trust on behalf of
the Money Market Portfolios. For its services, the Investment Adviser receives a
monthly fee equal to .075% of the combined average daily net assets up to $500
million and .02% of such assets in excess of $500 million of the Money Market
Portfolios. Such fees are allocated daily on the basis of the relative net
assets of each money market portfolio in the Trust. The Adviser has agreed to
waive 50% of the fee otherwise due for the Government, Government II, Prime
Obligation, Treasury and Treasury II Portfolios. In addition, the Adviser has
voluntarily agreed to waive its remaining fee in an amount proportionate to the
Manager's waiver of its fee.
Under an Investment Advisory Agreement dated December 15, 1986, Wellington
Management Company serves as the Investment Adviser of the Trust on behalf of
the Short-Duration Government, Intermediate-Duration Government and GNMA
Portfolios. Monthly fees are equal to .10% of the Portfolios' combined average
daily net assets up to $500 million, .075% of the next $500 million of such
assets and .05% of such net assets in excess of $1 billion. The Adviser has
voluntarily agreed to waive its remaining fee in an amount proportionate to the
Manager's waiver of its fee. Pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement dated
August 4, 1993, Wellington Management Company serves as Investment Adviser for
the Corporate Daily Income Portfolio. Monthly fees are equal to .10% of the
Portfolios' average daily net assets up to $500 million, .075% of the next $500
million and .05% of such net assets in excess of $1 billion. The Adviser has
voluntarily agreed to waive its remaining fee in an amount proportionate to the
Manager's waiver of its fee.
Bank of New York serves as custodian of the Money Market and Treasury
Portfolios under an agreement dated August 1, 1995. CoreStates Bank, N.A. serves
as custodian of the Government, Government II, Prime Obligation, Treasury II and
the Fixed Income Portfolios under an agreement dated August 30, 1985. The
custodians play no role in determining the investment policies of the Portfolios
or which securities are to be purchased or sold in the Portfolios.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
================================================================================
TO THE SHAREHOLDERS AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF SEI DAILY INCOME TRUST:
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets of the Money Market,
Government, Government II, Prime Obligation, Treasury, Treasury II,
Short-Duration Government, Intermediate-Duration Government, GNMA, and Corporate
Daily Income Portfolios of the SEI Daily Income Trust (the "Trust") as of
January 31, 1998, and the related statements of operations, changes in net
assets and financial highlights for the periods presented. These financial
statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Trust'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
January 31, 1998, by correspondence with the custodians and the application of
alternative auditing procedures with respect to unsettled securities
transactions. 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 the
Money Market, Government, Government II, Prime Obligation, Treasury, Treasury
II, Short-Duration Government, Intermediate-Duration Government, GNMA, and
Corporate Daily Income Portfolios of the SEI Daily Income Trust as of January
31, 1998, the results of their operations, changes in their net assets, and
financial highlights for the periods presented, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
