PRESIDENT'S LETTER
 
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
DEAR INVESTOR:
 
We are pleased to present the December 31, 1995 Annual Report of the
Metropolitan Series Fund, Inc. We have prefaced the Report with an overview of
the domestic U.S. and international economies during 1995. Details for each
Portfolio follow, including a summary of net assets and investments. Thank you
for your continued support in 1995. We are committed to helping you realize
your financial goals.
 
 ECONOMIC REVIEW
 
By almost any measure, 1995 was the kind of year investors appreciate.
Domestic markets soared, and indices reached historic highs. The soft landing
of the economy, with slackening inflation pressures, fueled the markets'
rally. Although consumers limited their spending because of job layoffs,
slowing wage growth and mounting debt, capital spending nonetheless spurred
economic growth.
 
The Federal Reserve cut short-term interest rates twice, at mid-year and again
at year-end. The dollar rose against the Japanese yen, but fell against the
German mark. Government spending slackened, while political wrangling produced
two Federal employment shutdowns and no budget plan by year-end. Our current
expectation is for continuing slow economic growth and low inflation in 1996.
 
 U.S. BOND MARKET
 
Bonds rallied throughout the year as the economy slowed and the Federal
Reserve began to ease monetary rate policy once again. Prices rose in every
month except July. Even the political stalemate in Washington could not dampen
investor sentiment. Total returns for high-grade bonds were the highest in a
decade as yields dropped by 2.0-2.5% across all maturities.
 
While economic fundamentals remain positive for the year ahead, securities are
relatively fully-valued. The market is vulnerable to disappointment because of
the Federal budget outlook and the level of the Federal Funds rate.
 
U.S. STOCK MARKET
 
Stocks climbed the ladder of higher corporate earnings and lower interest
rates. The Dow Jones Industrial Average broke through both its 4000 and 5000
levels, more than a 33% total increase, only to be outdistanced by the S&P 500
Index and the broader NASDAQ Composite. Trucking, steel, transportation
equipment and specialty retailers were among the minority of industries that
had negative performance.
 
The challenge ahead is how well companies can make the transition to a slower
environment with modest earnings growth. Investors should expect to see the
market's favorite economic sectors change frequently.
 
  INTERNATIONAL
     MARKETS
 
International markets produced mixed results in 1995. Slowing growth allowed
the central banks of most major economies to cut interest rates, fueling a
major bull market for bonds with most stock markets following.
 
Japan--In early 1995, with Japan awakening from recession, still feeling the
enormous cost of the Kobe earthquake and suffering from poor consumer
confidence, the stage was set for a turbulent Japanese stock market. By July,
the market had fallen nearly 28% in yen terms but by year-end, it was down
just 1%. In marked contrast, Hong Kong bounced back from a dismal 1994,
showing a return of 22% to stock market investors.
 
Europe--Most European markets showed positive results in 1995, collectively up
15.71% in various European currencies (22.20% in U.S. dollars). Low inflation
prompted the Bundesbank to ease interest rates, allowing other central banks
to follow suit; the subsequent rally in the bond markets encouraged stock
investors.
 
Emerging Markets--The emerging markets had a rocky start to the year because
of the crisis in Mexico. Investors began returning late in the year,
confidence renewed through a combination of an improved outlook in some
emerging economies and strong returns in the U.S.
 
Overall, international market performance was largely regional: interest rate
sensitive stocks responded to falling rates in concert with the bond markets,
and large companies with global exposure rose in line with U.S. stocks. The
broader markets remained mixed.
 
Sincerely,
 
/s/ Jeffrey J Hodgman

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
 
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
METROPOLITAN SERIES FUND GROWTH PORTFOLIO
 
In a record-setting year for the stock market, the Portfolio also delivered
strong performance. The Portfolio's total returns more than doubled the
average annual returns achieved since the Portfolio's inception in 1983. Total
net assets climbed above $1 billion during the year, setting another record.
 
Our strategy emphasized investment in large growth companies. We remained
heavily invested in such industries as recreation, hospital supply, and
computer software and services. Energy holdings were increased, although they
are still underrepresented compared to the S&P 500 Index. At year-end, our
heaviest sector concentrations were in technology and in consumer staple
stocks.
 
We have begun reducing our large-company holdings from investments in 70-80
companies toward a goal of 50-60 companies to increase our position in areas
we believe to be of the best value. Our investment philosophy is to evaluate
risk and try to lower turnover and economic sensitivity, while continuing to
seek growth of capital and income.
 
    INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
 
To seek long-term growth of capital and income and moderate current income.
 
   UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS
 
Invests primarily in common stocks believed to be of good quality or to have
good growth potential or which are considered to be undervalued based on
historical investment standards.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
 
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
METROPOLITAN SERIES FUND INCOME PORTFOLIO
 
The Portfolio posted a year of exceptional performance, with its total return
nearly double its average annual returns dating back to 1983.
 
As the bond market rallied throughout the year, the Portfolio benefitted from
declining interest rates, rising bond prices and falling yields. Half of the
Portfolio was invested in U.S. Treasuries and nearly one-quarter more of its
holdings were in corporate bonds on December 31. The average quality of the
Portfolio's securities remained very high.
 
Although conditions remain favorable for the U.S. bond market, we have become
somewhat cautious of high valuation levels. We maintain a significant 9%
exposure to foreign bond markets in the belief that they may outperform the
U.S. market over the next several quarters.
 
    INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
 
To achieve the highest possible total return by combining current income with
capital gains, consistent with prudent investment risk and preservation of
capital.
 
   UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS
 
Invests primarily in fixed income, high-quality debt securities.

METROPOLITAN SERIES FUND, INC.
 
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
 
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
METROPOLITAN SERIES FUND MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
 
Money market rates remained relatively stable during 1995, if one were to
compare them to the previous year when rates rose 2.5% to 3.0%. Indeed, rates
stayed within a half percentage point range, starting the year slightly over
6% and ending the year somewhat under 6%.
 
The rates were being led by the Federal Funds rate, which slowly leveled off
and pointed downward after the previous year's vicious climb. The Federal
Reserve was trying to constrain the economy, and to some analysts the Federal
Reserve still is constraining money growth by maintaining relatively high real
rates of interest.
 
In sharp contrast to the thirty day average maturity of the Portfolio in 1994,
the average in 1995 was extended to approximately sixty days in the second and
third quarter and within ninety days in the fourth quarter. With an almost
universal belief that the Federal Reserve would continue to drop short-term
rates, market participants have had to accept lower rates to lock in
maturities for longer periods of time.
 
    INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
 
To achieve the highest possible current income consistent with preservation of
capital and maintenance of liquidity.
 
   UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS
 
Invests primarily in short-term money market instruments.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
 
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
METROPOLITAN SERIES FUND DIVERSIFIED PORTFOLIO
 
As both stock and bond markets set records, the Portfolio also performed very
well. Total returns for the year ended December 31 were more than twice the
average annual returns recorded since the Portfolio's inception in 1986. In
another milestone, total net assets surpassed $1 billion during the year.
 
The Portfolio's equity portion emphasized technology and consumer staple
stocks, frequently of large companies. The fixed income portion emphasized
Treasury and corporate bonds of very high credit quality. We also added
modestly to our stock positions in the finance and energy sectors.
 
After maintaining a slightly heavier bond allocation for most of 1995, we
began moving back toward our normal ratio of 60% stocks and 40% bonds in the
fourth quarter. Returns from stocks appear to offer more opportunity going
forward. Volatility in bonds has increased relative to stock price volatility.
 
    INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
 
To achieve a high total return while attempting to limit investment risk and
preserve capital.
 
   UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS
 
Invests in equity securities, fixed income debt securities, or short-term
money market instruments, or any combination thereof at the discretion of
State Street Research & Management Company.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
 
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
METROPOLITAN SERIES FUND AGGRESSIVE GROWTH PORTFOLIO
 
The Portfolio advanced in a volatile, record-setting market over the year, and
continued its string of strong, average annual returns.
 
At year-end, the market had turned risk-averse, favoring large-cap, blue chip
stocks. We reduced our exposure to technology overall and added selectively to
holdings in finance and consumer cyclicals. Our diversification at year-end
more closely mirrored the asset allocation of the S&P 500 Index.
 
The Portfolio remains focused on top-quality company management, strong
earnings growth and attractive valuations. These are important factors in
trying to control the risks of investing in high growth stocks. We are attuned
to opportunities and special situations and continue to select stocks
individually, analyzing their fundamentals from the bottom up.
 
    INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
 
To achieve maximum capital appreciation.
 
   UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS
 
Invests primarily in common stocks (and equity and debt securities convertible
into or carrying the right to acquire common stocks) of emerging growth
companies, undervalued securities or special situations.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

METROPOLITAN SERIES FUND STOCK INDEX PORTFOLIO
 
In 1995, the S&P 500 Index had its best one-year return since 1958. Throughout
the year, stocks were helped by good profit growth and by global optimism
regarding low inflation and reduced government deficits. In addition, merger
and acquisition activity, corporate share repurchases and inflows into equity
mutual funds all boosted stock prices. The Stock Index Portfolio reflected
good performance by the stocks of the large multi-national corporations, which
are a significant component of the S&P 500 Index.
 
The Stock Index Portfolio continued to follow its strategy of investing
virtually all its assets in stocks of companies in the S&P 500 Index. The
Portfolio uses a computerized stock selection procedure to allocate its
holdings among industries and specific stocks in order to achieve returns
close to those of the S&P 500 Index.
 
    INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
 
To equal the performance of the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price
Index (adjusted to assume reinvestment of dividends).
 
   UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS
 
Invests in the common stocks of companies that are included in the S&P 500
Index.

METROPOLITAN SERIES FUND, INC.
 
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
 
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
METROPOLITAN SERIES FUND INTERNATIONAL STOCK PORTFOLIO
 
1995's mixed performance in the international markets was reflected in the
International Stock Portfolio. The first quarter saw the most negative market
action. The Portfolio had moved away from emerging markets before their sharp
fall in January, but its exposure to Japan at the time of the Kobe earthquake
had a severe impact on it. Rounding out the difficult first quarter was
extreme volatility in currency markets, lending further uncertainty to already
rocky markets.
 
By the second quarter, the strength in international bond markets and the U.S.
stock market began filtering through to large global companies trading on the
European exchanges. Much of the Portfolio's subsequent underperformance may be
attributed to its higher exposure to medium- and smaller-size companies, which
tend to move with their underlying domestic economies rather than the U.S.
economy.
 
Looking forward, the Portfolio is well-positioned to take advantage of a
resurgent Japanese economy, as well as the worsening supply imbalance in a
number of raw materials. In addition, very few sectors within the
international markets participated in last year's rise, which potentially may
lead to a more favorable market.
 
         INVESTMENT
    OBJECTIVE/UNDERLYING

The Average Annual Total Returns were not materially affected by Metropolitan
Life Insurance Company's subsidy of certain expenses for part of 1993, and did
not produce return figures different from those displayed. The above graph
does not include withdrawal or surrender charges and Separate Account expenses
(general administrative expenses and mortality and expense risk charges or
cost of insurance charges). If performance information included the effect of
these additional charges, performance would have been lowered. Past
performance is no guarantee of future results. Principal value and investment
return will vary and you may have a gain or loss when you withdraw your money.

The Board of Directors and Shareholders, Metropolitan Series Fund, Inc.
 
  We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities,
including the schedules of investments, of the Growth, Income, Money Market,
Diversified, Aggressive Growth, Stock Index, and International Stock
Portfolios of Metropolitan Series Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") as of December 31,
1995, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the
statements of changes in net assets for the years ended December 31, 1995 and
1994 and the financial highlights for the applicable periods ended December
31, 1995, 1994, 1993, 1992 and 1991. 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 at December 31, 1995 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers:
where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing
procedures. 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 and financial highlights present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Growth,
Income, Money Market, Diversified, Aggressive Growth, Stock Index, and
International Stock Portfolios of the Metropolitan Series Fund, Inc. at
December 31, 1995 and the results of their operations, the changes in their
net assets, and the financial highlights for the respective stated periods, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

 Notes:
 Total return information shown in the Financial Highlights tables does not
 reflect expenses that apply at the separate acount level or to related
 insurance products. Inclusion of these charges would reduce the total return
 figures for all periods shown.
 (1) The lesser of purchases or sales of portfolio securities for a period,
 divided by the monthly average of the market value of portfolio securities
 owned during the period. Securities with a maturity or expiration date at the
 time of acquisition of one year or less are excluded from the calculation.
 Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term securities) for the
 year ended December 31, 1995 amounted to $489,702,902 and $377,323,949,
 respectively.

METROPOLITAN SERIES FUND, INC.
 
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 1995
 
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
          The Metropolitan Series Fund, Inc. ("Fund") is registered under the
          Investment Company Act of 1940 as a diversified open end investment
          company. The following is a summary of significant accounting
          policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its
          financial statements. The policies are in conformity with generally
          accepted accounting principles.
1. SIGNIFICANT
   ACCOUNTING
   POLICIES
          ---------------------------------------------------------------------
       A. INVESTMENT SECURITY VALUATION: Portfolio securities that are traded
          on stock exchanges are valued at the last price as of the close of
          business on the day the securities are being valued, or, lacking any
          sales, at the mean between closing bid and asked prices. Securities
          traded in the over-the-counter market are valued at the mean between
          the bid and asked prices or yield equivalent as obtained from two or
          more dealers that make markets in the securities. Portfolio
          securities that are traded in both the over-the-counter market and
          on a stock exchange are valued according to the broadest and most
          representative market, and it is expected that for debt securities
          this ordinarily will be the over-the-counter market. The estimated
          fair value of equity and debt investments are based on the quoted
          market price as of December 31, 1995. Securities for which market
          quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as
          determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Board of
          Directors of the Fund, including valuations furnished by a pricing
          service retained for this purpose. The market values of foreign
          securities are recorded after translation to U.S. dollars, based on
          the exchange rate at the end of the period.
 
          Short-term debt securities in all Portfolios, except the Money
          Market Portfolio, with sixty days or less remaining to maturity are
          valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term
          investments in these Portfolios maturing more than sixty days from
          the valuation date are valued at fair value based on the most recent
          bid price or yield equivalent as obtained from dealers that make
          markets in such securities. Portfolio securities in the Money Market
          Portfolio are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair
          value.
          ---------------------------------------------------------------------
       B. INVESTMENT SECURITY TRANSACTIONS: Security transactions are recorded
          on the trade date. Securities denominated in foreign currencies are
          translated at exchange rates prevailing on the respective dates
          traded. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, for
          certain foreign securities, when notified; interest income is
          accrued as earned. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies
          are recorded at the rate prevailing when earned or incurred.
          Realized gains and losses are determined on the identified cost
          basis. Asset and liability accounts that are denominated in foreign
          currencies are adjusted to reflect current exchange rates prevailing
          on the respective dates traded. Dividend income is recorded on the
          ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign securities, when notified;
          interest income is accrued as earned. Transactions denominated in
          foreign currencies are recorded at the rate prevailing when earned
          or incurred. Realized gains and losses are determined on the
          identified cost basis. Asset and liability accounts that are
          denominated in foreign currencies are adjusted to reflect current
          exchange rates.
          ---------------------------------------------------------------------
       C. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: It is the Fund's policy to comply with the
          requirements of the Internal Revenue Code and regulations thereunder
          applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all
          of its taxable income to shareholders. Therefore, no Federal income
          tax provision is required. At December 31, 1995, the Income
          Portfolio had available for federal income tax purposes an unused
          capital loss carryover of approximately $4,800,000 which will expire
          on December 31, 2002.
          ---------------------------------------------------------------------
       D. RETURN OF CAPITAL DISTRIBUTIONS: The Fund distributes all of its
          taxable income, both net realized gains and net investment income,
          to shareholders. Effective January 1, 1994 the Fund adopted
          Statement of Position 93-2: Determination, Disclosure, and Financial
          Statement Presentation of Income, Capital Gain, and Return of
          Capital Distributions by Investment Companies. As a result, the Fund
          changed the classification of distributions to shareholders to
          better disclose the differences between financial statement amounts
          and distributions determined in accordance with income tax
          regulations.
          ---------------------------------------------------------------------
       E. FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE CONTRACTS: A forward foreign
          currency exchange contract is an agreement between two parties to
          buy or sell a specific currency for a set price on a future date.
          The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts
          to hedge security transactions or holdings denominated in a foreign
          currency. Should foreign currency exchange rates move unexpectedly,
          the Fund may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the forward
          foreign currency exchange contracts and may realize a loss. The use
          of forward foreign currency exchange contracts involves the risk of
          imperfect correlation in movements in the price of the underlying
          hedged assets and foreign currency exchange rates. During the period
          that a contract is open, changes in the value of the contract are
          recognized as an unrealized gain or loss by "marking to market" on a
          daily basis. A realized gain or loss will be recognized when a
          contract is completed or cancelled.
          ---------------------------------------------------------------------
       F. ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS: 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 as of the date of the financial
          statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during
          the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
          estimates.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. RESTRICTED
   AND
   ILLIQUID
   SECURITIES
          The Income Portfolio holds two securities, the Diversified Portfolio
          holds two securities, and the Aggressive Growth Portfolio holds
          three securities that were purchased in private placement
          transactions. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt
          from registration or to the public if the securities are registered.
          The sale of these securities may involve lengthy negotiations and
          additional expenses. These constraints may affect the security's
          marketability, and therefore hinder prompt disposal at an acceptable
          price. The Fund intends to invest no more than 15% of net assets in
          illiquid and restricted securities, except for the Money Market
          Portfolio where the restriction is 10% of net assets. Restricted
          securities (including Rule 144A issues) held at December 31, 1995
          are footnoted at the end of each applicable Portfolio's schedule of
          investments.

METROPOLITAN SERIES FUND, INC.
 
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 1995 - (CONTINUED)
 
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
          The Fund has entered into investment management agreements with
          Metropolitan Life. For providing investment management services to
          the Fund, Metropolitan Life receives monthly compensation at the
          annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily value of the aggregate net
          assets of each of the Portfolios except the Aggressive Growth
          Portfolio and the International Stock Portfolio; and 0.75% of the
          average daily value of the aggregrate net assets of the Aggressive
          Growth Portfolio and the International Stock Portfolio. The Fund and
          Metropolitan Life have entered into sub-investment management
          agreements with State Street Research & Management Company ("State
          Street Research"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Metropolitan Life.
          The agreements provide for the compensation to State Street Research
          for the management of the Growth, Income, Diversified, and
          Aggressive Growth Portfolios. The Fund and Metropolitan Life have
          entered into a separate sub-investment management agreement with GFM
          International Investors Limited ("GFM"), a subsidiary of
          Metropolitan Life, for the International Stock Portfolio. This
          agreement provides for the compensation to GFM for the management of
          the International Stock Portfolio.
3. EXPENSES
 
          Prior to May 16, 1993, Metropolitan Life was obligated to pay all
          expenses of each Portfolio of the Fund other than the investment
          management fees payable to Metropolitan Life, brokerage commissions
          on portfolio transactions (including any other direct costs related
          to the acquisition, disposition, lending or borrowing of portfolio
          investments), taxes payable by the Fund, interest and any other
          costs related to borrowings by the Fund, and any extraordinary or
          non-recurring expenses (such as legal claims and liabilities and
          litigation costs and any indemnification related thereto). Since
          that date, the Fund has been obligated to pay all of its own
          expenses. However, Metropolitan Life reserves the right, in its sole
          discretion, to pay all or a portion of the expenses of the Fund or
          any of its Portfolios, and to terminate such voluntary payment at
          any time upon notice to the Board of Directors and shareholders of
          the Fund.
