We are pleased to present the Metropolitan Series Fund. Inc. 1998 Annual Report
for MetLife Universal Life II polices. Universal Life II (a variable universal
life policy) provides you with:

               . life insurance protection for your beneficiaries and
               . the potential for tax-deferred growth of cash value.

UL II may be appropriate for individuals who need permanent life insurance and
who want more control over where their net premiums are invested. You can choose
from the Fixed Account and the eleven investment divisions of the Separate
Account, depending on your investment objective and risk tolerance.

The following chart illustrates the past performance of the UL II policy's
investment divisions at the Separate Account level. The rates include the
charges for mortality and expense risks (M&E), fund management fees, and direct
fund expenses. When reviewing performance, keep in mind that these rates are
based on historical experience only and are not intended to suggest what future
returns will be.                            ---

LETTER FROM THE FUND'S CHAIRMAN AND PRESIDENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Dear Investor:
 
We are pleased to present the December 31, 1998 Annual Report of the
Metropolitan Series Fund, Inc. We have prefaced the Report with an overview of
the U.S. and international economies during 1998.  Details for each Portfolio,
including a listing of assets, investments, and Portfolio characteristics,
follow.
 
- ----------------------------------------
        ECONOMIC REVIEW
- ----------------------------------------
Since inflation continued to slow for both goods and services, the potential
remained for further interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve in 1999.
Financial market volatility remained high, reflecting slow global growth and
concerns over credit, earnings and foreign markets. During the fourth quarter,
global markets calmed in response to U.S. Federal Reserve interest rate cuts and
other reductions around the world. Nevertheless, economic trends remained less
robust and a bias toward deflation in prices continued. The U.S. economy seems
likely to slow in the coming quarters, as both consumers and business begin to
retrench. Slower growth in jobs and income is expected. However, real spending
may hold up better with declining prices.
 
- ----------------------------------------
        U.S. STOCK MARKET
- ----------------------------------------
The market, as measured by the S&P 500 Stock Price Index, rose more than 20
percent for an unprecedented fourth year in a row. However, that figure masked
tremendous volatility that sent stocks soaring in the first quarter, down in the
third quarter, and then back up. The market displayed divergent performance
between large and small company stocks and also between growth and value stocks;
large company stocks had strong performance, while small company stocks
continued to lose ground, and growth stocks soared, while value stocks delivered
only modest returns. Technology stocks were among the strongest performers, led
by Internet companies that surprised even the most optimistic investors.
 
- ----------------------------------------
        U.S. BOND MARKET
- ----------------------------------------
Despite short-term interest rate cuts, the market continued to be extremely
volatile. Many segments of the U.S. bond market drifted lower as investors
sought bonds of the highest quality. Long-term U.S. Treasury bonds were the best
performers in this environment. At year-end, the yield of 30-year Treasury bonds
was above 5%, while 10-year bonds stood at 4.65%. High-yield and
investment-grade corporate bond prices improved late in the year, and interest
spreads narrowed from their peaks.

- ---------------------------------------- 
        INTERNATIONAL MARKETS
- ----------------------------------------
The major concerns overseas were Latin America, Asia, with emphasis on Japan and
China, and finally Russia.   In January 1999, Brazil allowed its currency to
float and the real dropped over 20% against the dollar. This devaluation,
together with Brazil's need for fiscal contraction, could cause a further
slowdown of economic growth in Latin America.  Japan's economy needed, and still
needs, to stabilize its bad debt and excess capacity in order to support the
global economy. Russia remained in the midst of currency devaluation and debt
default.  The European Monetary Union, with its new euro, may reduce foreign
countries' demand for U.S. dollars as a reserve currency.
 
 
 
Sincerely,

/s/ David A. Levene                     /s/ Christopher P. Nicholas

David A. Levene                         Christopher P. Nicholas

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STATE STREET RESEARCH GROWTH PORTFOLIO

The Portfolio delivered very solid performance relative to its Lipper peer group
for the 12-month period. This performance continued a 10-year record of
outstanding returns.   The focus on large company growth stocks paid off as
growth stocks outperformed value stocks by a wide margin during the year. The
Portfolio's strategy to invest in companies that dominate their industries
significantly helped performance.
 
Although market volatility was high, the Portfolio's performance remained solid.
The manager maintained investment in companies whose business fundamentals were
strong and where investors had confidence in earnings growth potential. Overall,
investments in technology, telecommunications, financial services and retailing
sectors drove performance. Defensive sectors such as utilities, foods and energy
under-performed in the fourth quarter.
 
At year-end, the Portfolio seemed well positioned for the economic environment.
The manager continued to look for companies with growth drivers and whose stocks
can be purchased at reasonable prices.

- ---------------------------
   INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
- ---------------------------

To achieve long-term growth of capital and income, and moderate current income.

- ---------------------------
  UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS
- ---------------------------

Invests primarily in equity securities of good quality where the stock price
represents a good value based on considerations such as price to book value and
price to earnings ratios.

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 lower.  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.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

STATE STREET RESEARCH INCOME PORTFOLIO

The Portfolio continued to perform among the leaders of its Lipper peer group
for the 12-month period. This record has continued over a decade of consistent,
high performance, an example of the benefits to be found in bond investments.
 
Markets continued to be extremely volatile. U.S. Treasury bonds were the best
performers, as investors sought refuge from concerns over Asia, international
hedge funds, and the Russian debt crisis. Price spreads between high-yield and
investment-grade corporate bonds narrowed off their peaks, an evidence of more
confidence in the market. At year-end, yields of 30-year Treasuries backed up
over 5%, with 10-year bonds at 4.65%, reflecting a lower inflationary mood in
the economy.
 
In the fourth quarter, the manager added high quality holdings, primarily
asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities, and reduced Treasury and
investment-grade corporate holdings. The manager has maintained the Portfolio's
interest rate sensitivity longer than market average, anticipating a possible
further decline in interest rates.  The overall credit quality of the
Portfolio's holdings remains very high.
- -----------------------------------
     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 highly rated corporate and government bonds.

STATE STREET RESEARCH MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO

The Portfolio continued to perform above the average of its Lipper peer group
over the 12-month period.  The Portfolio has maintained above average
performance for over 10-years.
 
Yields declined sharply in 1998, following the Federal Reserve's three
one-quarter point interest rate cuts during the third and fourth quarters.
Growth in money fund assets accelerated in 1998 to their fastest rate in 10
years. Money fund assets increased by 27.5% industry-wide, more than $290
billion during the year, to a total of $1.35 trillion. Asset growth in mutual
funds continued to be the dominant theme. At year-end, short-term interest rates
were stable, as Federal Reserve monetary policy remained on hold. The
Portfolio's weighted average maturity was 43 days. Maturity was shortened to
take advantage of possible interest rate changes that could result from year-end
Federal Reserve Fund pressure. The Portfolio's current target is in the average
maturity range of 45 - 60 days.
 
The Portfolio continues to invest in high-quality, first-tier money market
instruments such as corporate and domestic bank commericial paper, as well as
the commercial paper of Canadian banks and provinces.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

STATE STREET RESEARCH DIVERSIFIED PORTFOLIO

The Portfolio continued to perform in the top quarter of its Lipper peer group
for the 12-month period. The Portfolio has maintained its top quarter
performance for over 10-years.
 
The Portfolio's emphasis on large, growth-driven companies was rewarded; stocks
from such companies outperformed value stocks by a wide margin during the year.
Overall, investments in technology, telecommunications, financial services and
retailing sectors drove performance.  Defensive sectors such as utilities, foods
and energy under-performed in the fourth quarter.  In the volatile bond markets,
U.S. Treasury bonds were the best performers, with investors seeking refuge from
concerns over Asia, international hedge funds, and the Russian debt crisis.
 
In the fourth quarter, the manager added high quality holdings, primarily
asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities, and reduced Treasury and
investment-grade corporate holdings. The manager kept interest rate sensitivity
longer than market average, anticipating a further decline in interest rates.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STATE STREET RESEARCH AGGRESSIVE GROWTH PORTFOLIO

Portfolio performance rose significantly in the final quarter, reversing the
earlier losses of 1998, although finishing below the average of its Lipper peer
group.  The Portfolio made a strong recovery as the stock market rally finally
broadened to include mid cap company stocks. All investment sectors rose, but
technology and media stocks proved especially strong. Individual stock selection
in the healthcare industry, however, held back performance.
 
The manager continued to focus on stocks of companies in the $1 - $10 billion
asset range. Holdings emphasized earnings potential by focusing on companies
with a history of solid business achievement and prospects for above-average
earnings growth. Sectors or industries of interest included consumer products,
technology, healthcare and business services. At year-end, the Portfolio held a
lean selection of 73 stocks.
 
The manager believes that current market conditions, an environment of slow
economic growth and low inflation, will be beneficial to the Portfolio's
performance. Prospects are attractive for domestically oriented mid-size
companies with good unit growth records.

Management's Discussion And Analysis
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
METLIFE STOCK INDEX PORTFOLIO

The total return for the Portfolio during 1998 was 28.2%.  This return reflects
gains in the Standard & Poor's 500 Index, which the Portfolio is designed to
track.  The year's gains resulted in an unprecedented fourth consecutive year
with returns exceeding 20%.   Operating earnings for companies in the index were
flat in 1998, compared with the prior year.  Low inflation and interest rates,
along with optimism about future earnings, helped move stock valuations higher.
Much of 1998's price appreciation for the index was concentrated in larger,
faster growing companies - particularly technology stocks.
 
The year's results included a sharp market decline between mid July and the end
of August, but the fourth quarter turned in one of the best quarterly
performances of the decade.  Several fundamental developments gave investors
confidence that the global financial problems of the third quarter would not
continue. Congress gave the International Monetary Fund additional funding,
Japan addressed its banking problems, and Brazil tried to adopt a plan to avoid
a feared devaluation.  Most importantly, the U.S. Federal Reserve and various
foreign central banks reduced short-term interest rates.  Also, merger activity
reached a new, high level in 1998.  This helped support stock prices, but it
also mandated an unusually large number of changes in the composition of the S&P
500 Index.

- ----------------------------
   Investment Objective
- ----------------------------
 
To equal the performance of the Standard & Poor's  500 Composite Stock Price
Index ("S&P 500 Index").

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SANTANDER INTERNATIONAL STOCK PORTFOLIO

Effective November 9, 1998, Santander Global Advisors, Inc. became the
sub-investment manager of the Santander International Stock Portfolio, formerly
known as the State Street Research International Stock Portfolio.  During the
first six-month period, the Portfolio improved performance significantly versus
its Lipper peer group (International), benefiting from greater emphasis in
Europe where inflation remained subdued and growth accelerated.  The fourth
quarter began with the Portfolio continuing to benefit from greater emphasis in
Europe and lower than average exposure to Japan.  Investments in the financial
and high technology sectors did not perform well and more emphasis was placed on
manufacturing and service.
 
At year-end, the Portfolio continued to hold overweight positions in the smaller
markets of Europe and was underweight in Australia and the Far East.  An
overweight position in Spain, where monetary conditions and corporate earnings
growth were positive, contributed well to the Portfolio's performance.  Although
the Portfolio was significantly underweight in Japan, an overweight position in
Japanese exporters had negative impact on the Portfolio as the yen rallied
strongly during October and maintained its strength through year end.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

LOOMIS SAYLES HIGH YIELD BOND PORTFOLIO

The Portfolio returned negative 7.51% in 1998, under-performing its benchmark,
the Merrill Lynch High Yield Index, which returned 3.66% for the year.
High-yield markets were extremely volatile in 1998. Russia's debt restructuring
and the subsequent de-leveraging of hedge funds brought trading to a halt and
caused investors to flee the asset class. The result was an indiscriminate
valuation of the entire sector without regard for an individual issue's
fundamental prospects.
 
Higher quality issues outperformed their lower quality brethren due to their
liquidity and the market's aversion to risk.  The Portfolio's exposure to Yankee
bonds relative to the index proved detrimental, as a nearly two-month flight to
quality penalized both issuers and holders of foreign debt.  On a positive note,
defaults remain remarkably low by historical measures and the Federal Reserve's
easing initiative and IMF-led fiscal austerity packages for several regions
around the globe sparked a compression of credit spreads in the latter part of
the year.
 
The Portfolio managers remain optimistic that 1999 will bring better performance
among high-yield bonds as credit spreads narrow, although the volatility may
remain until global economic conditions improve materially.  With recent
Treasury yields at all time lows, the risk/reward scenario is more compelling
than ever for high-yield bonds, and the Portfolio managers believe that the
Portfolio is well positioned to capitalize on the improved market sentiment.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

JANUS MID CAP PORTFOLIO

The Portfolio outperformed its benchmark, the S&P 400 MidCap Index, in 1998.
The Portfolio saw more broad-based earnings disappointments, even impacting
sectors that previously led the market.  For example, a number of Dow Jones
Industrial Average stalwarts, including Coca-Cola and Gillette, reported weak
financial results, while average earnings growth for S&P 500 Index companies
declined by two percentage points during the third quarter.  However, earnings
growth is alive and well across the Portfolio; the average estimated growth rate
across Portfolio holdings measures above 30%.
 
While the third quarter sell off was certainly disconcerting, it offered the
manager an opportunity to add additional technology stocks to the Portfolio,
including Vitesse Semiconductor, which produces high-speed chips.  The
environment for semiconductor stocks has generally been inhospitable, and
Vitesse was certainly caught in the selling that pervaded the market during the
summer correction.  The stock's decline, however, offered an attractive point to
add to the Portfolio's position, which the manager did near its lows.
 
Moving ahead, the global slowdown has removed a substantial tailwind from
domestic economic growth; however, the inflationary outlook appears benign,
especially in light of the collapse in commodity prices.  Domestic labor markets
remain exceedingly tight and consumer optimism appears very high.  The
combination of these factors creates a more moderate picture for economic growth
in the coming year.

The Portfolio returned 3.5% for the year, modestly ahead of both the Russell
2000 Growth Index and the Lipper VA Small Cap Fund Average. As has been true
since this phase of the bull market began in 1994, the S&P 500 dramatically
outperformed small cap stocks for the full year, rising by 28.6%. Over the past
four years, the S&P 500 has risen by 190%, as compared to only 78% for the
Russell 2000.
 
The Russell 2000 Growth Index fell by over 40% from its peak in late April to
the trough in early October. This dramatic sell-off was triggered by events
overseas, and was symptomatic of a huge shift in risk tolerance by investors.
During the decline in the late summer and early fall, risky investments
under-performed more conservative choices in almost every asset class.  Somewhat
inexplicably, investor sentiment reversed course abruptly in October and small
cap growth stocks surged. The Russell 2000 Growth Index advanced 23.6% during
the quarter, its best performance since 1991 and the fourth best over the
history of the index.  Despite the good performance of small cap stocks in the
fourth quarter, relative valuations have not changed much and remain close to 40
year lows.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SCUDDER GLOBAL EQUITY PORTFOLIO

Equity markets staged an astonishing recovery in the fourth quarter, in many
cases surpassing their previous highs for the year. This recovery can largely be
attributed to the Federal Reserve Bank's second and third interest rate cuts
during the latter half of the year.  In spite of much turbulence in the global
economy and individual financial markets, the Portfolio completed the year with
a 15.96% return.
 
The risks that the Portfolio managers perceive in both the global economy and
individual financial markets have led the Portfolio managers to maintain a
flexible stance. Therefore, investment action has been slight and focused on
additions to the "Secure Streams of Income" theme and the development of a new
theme, "The Empowered Consumer."  This new theme focuses on the roll-out of
technology benefits to households. Examples from this theme include Comcast
Corp, Motorola and Tele-Comm Liberty Media.  The search for new themes seeks to
understand the wider implications of the structural imbalances that characterize
the global economy. Like Alan Greenspan, the Portfolio managers believe that
financial markets are still exuberant, still irrational.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

HARRIS OAKMARK LARGE CAP VALUE PORTFOLIO

Since the inception of the Portfolio in early November, performance lagged the
broad market averages during this two month truncated period.  It took several
weeks to build the equity Portfolio from its original cash position, and this
was the primary reason why these short-term results trailed the broad market,
which rose during the period.  At the end of the fourth quarter, the Portfolio
was fully invested.
 
On a broader note, the latter part of the year, like much of 1998, proved to be
a very tough period for value investors. Although the Portfolio managers believe
that portfolios at Harris Associates/Oakmark are now cheaper relative to the
market then at any time in recent memory, Harris Associates/Oakmark is
enthusiastic about the prospects for 1999.
 
The Portfolio managers seek to invest in above-average businesses at
below-average prices.  Basically, the Portfolio managers try to buy shares in a
business at a significant discount to their underlying business value.  They
seek out companies with management teams who work to build value for
shareholders.  The Portfolio is focused; there are just 27 stocks in the
Portfolio, whereas many other funds may hold 80-100 names. The managers believe
this strategy is important to the Portfolio's long-term success because it
ensures that the best ideas have a meaningful impact on performance.

Management's Discussion And Analysis

NEUBERGER&BERMAN PARTNERS MID CAP VALUE PORTFOLIO

Since it began operations on November 9, 1998, the Portfolio has returned 7.44%
for the year.  The Portfolio's benchmark, the S&P 400 Value Index, returned
3.29% for the same period. The Portfolio managers focus primarily on out of
favor mid sized companies less widely followed by Wall Street analysts. They
seek to find quality companies trading at a discount to their intrinsic economic
value.
 
1998 was not a particularly rewarding year for value investors relative to their
growth stock counterparts. The Portfolio managers' value style and focus on
mid/large cap stocks restrained performance in a year in which the market
strongly favored very large cap growth stocks.
 
Nevertheless, the Portfolio's financial stock holdings, such as banks,
broker/asset management, and insurance companies, recovered nicely in the fourth
quarter, as three Federal Reserve interest rate cuts provided liquidity and
helped revive the world's capital and credit markets.  Another bright spot in
the Portfolio was communications services stocks, which rose on good earnings
and accelerating consolidation in the telecommunications industry.  The
Portfolio managers believe that an ongoing commitment to value will enhance
returns going forward.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

T. ROWE PRICE LARGE CAP GROWTH PORTFOLIO

The Portfolio began operations on November 9, 1998. It invests in stocks of
well-established companies with the potential to achieve above average earnings
and dividend growth. This growth stock strategy leads to a search for companies
with leadership in growth markets, strong management and cash flow, and solid
returns on cash flow.
 
For the month of December, the Portfolio returned 6.97% which compares favorably
to the 5.40% return on the Portfolio's custom benchmark, 80% S&P 500 and 20%
MSCI EAFE(R), but lagged the 8.72% return of the Lipper VA Growth Funds Average.
 
Stocks around the world rallied sharply in the fourth quarter after the Federal
Reserve initiated a series of short-term interest rates cuts to stave off the
economic weakness in the U.S. Technology, retail, and Internet related stocks
were among the best performing market segments. The Federal Reserve continues to
steer the economy deftly, and U.S. companies remain world leaders. However,
equity valuations are extreme, and consumers continue to favor spending over
saving. In addition, economies around the world remain troubled. While the stock
market rewarded many investors with strong returns in 1998, earnings and cash
flow at companies showed little growth. Without improvement, there could be
lower stock market returns in the period ahead.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

LEHMAN BROTHERS AGGREGATE BOND INDEX PORTFOLIO

Between its inception on November 9, 1998, and year-end, the Portfolio returned
1.38%.  This total return is comprised of both coupon return and positive price
performance resulting from falling interest rates.  The Portfolio seeks to
replicate the total rate of return of the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index,
which is comprised of over 7,200 publicly traded, dollar denominated, fixed
income securities with a total market value of over $5.4 trillion dollars.
 
During 1998, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index returned 8.69%.  Declining
interest rate levels drove the level of return, which was well above the
weighted average coupon of the Index.  For example, the benchmark 10-year
Treasury rate fell 1.2% during 1998 from 5.8% to 4.6%.  This decline was driven
largely by lower inflation pressure, the 'flight to quality' to U.S. markets
during the recent Asian financial crisis and a strong dollar.
 
The year ahead is as uncertain as ever, with consensus predictions centering on
slower but positive U.S. growth and continued low inflation, an outlook that
should support fairly stable interest rates and normal fixed income returns.
However, while the economic and financial crisis, which began in Asia and
spread to Eastern Europe, Russia and Latin America, has shown some initial signs
of bottoming and recovery, further deterioration could occur.

- --------------------
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
- -------------------- 

To equal the performance of the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index.

MORGAN STANLEY EAFE(R) INDEX PORTFOLIO

Between its inception on November 9, 1998, and year-end, the Morgan Stanley EAFE
Index Portfolio had a return of 8.11%.  This return reflects gains in the Morgan
Stanley Capital International(R) (MSCI) EAFE(R) Index, which the Portfolio
is designed to track.  The Portfolio owns shares in most of the companies in the
EAFE Index, which is composed of about 1000 companies in developed markets
outside the U.S.

As in the U.S., overseas equity markets experienced a sharp decline between
August and September of 1998.  Then, from its low on October 5, until year-end,
the EAFE Index rose 28%.  The Morgan Stanley EAFE Index Portfolio started during
this recovery period.
 
European stocks make up about three-quarters of the EAFE Index.  Economies in
Europe generally flourished and experienced low inflation throughout 1998.  The
fourth quarter upturn in the EAFE Index was triggered by interest rate cuts in
many countries and by bank reform in Japan.  Increased merger activity in Europe
also bolstered stock prices.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

RUSSELL 2000 INDEX PORTFOLIO

Between its inception on November 9, 1998, and year-end, the Russell 2000 Index
Portfolio had a gain of 5.48%.  This return reflects gains in the Russell
2000/(R)/ Index, which the Portfolio is designed to track.  The Portfolio owns
shares of most companies in the Russell 2000 Index, which is composed of
approximately 2000 U.S. small capitalization companies.
 
The Russell 2000 Index experienced considerable volatility during 1998. After
reaching a high in April, the Index declined 36% to its low on October 8.
Between October 8 and year-end, the Index moved back up by 36%. The Russell 2000
Index Portfolio commenced operations during this recovery period. The upturn in
late 1998 was triggered largely by the Federal Reserve's interest rate
reductions. Between November 9, 1998, and year-end, returns of small
capitalization stocks lagged those of larger stocks. This performance reflects a
recent investor preference for more stable and better known companies, which are
more prevalent among the larger capitalization stocks.

     Notes:
     Total return information shown in the Financial Highlights tables does not
      reflect expenses that apply at the separate account 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, 1998
          amounted to $2,101,526,633 and $1,891,659,069, respectively.

     Notes:
     Total return information shown in the Financial Highlights tables does not
      reflect expenses that apply at the separate account level or to related
      insurance products. Inclusion of these charges would reduce the total
      return figures for all periods shown.

      (1) Ratios for the two months ended December 31, 1998 have been determined
          on annualized operating results for the period. Twelve-month results
          may be different.

      (2) 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, 1998
          amounted to: $7,987,916 and $0 for the Harris Oakmark Large Cap Value

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 1998
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

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.
 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A. INVESTMENT SECURITY VALUATION:

Portfolio securities that are traded on domestic 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
(except for the Loomis Sayles High Yield Bond Portfolio, which in the latter
case would value such securities at the last bid price). Securities trading
primarily on non-domestic exchanges are valued at the preceding closing price on
the exchange where it primarily trades (or, in the case of the Loomis Sayles
High Yield Bond and Scudder Global Equity Portfolios, the last sale). A security
that is listed or traded on more than one exchange is valued at the quotation on
the exchange determined to be the primary market for that security by the Board
of Directors or its delegates. If no closing price is available, then such
securities are valued by using the mean between the last current bid and asked
prices or, second, by using the last available closing price (except for the
Scudder Global Equity Portfolio which second values such securities at the last
current bid, and third by using the last available price). Domestic 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 (except for the Loomis Sayles High Yield Bond
Portfolio, which, in the latter case, would value such security at the last bid
price; or the Scudder Global Equity and the Neuberger&Berman Partners Mid Cap
Value Portfolios which would value such security first at the last sale, and
second at the bid price). All non-U.S. securities traded in the over-the-counter
securities market are valued at the last sale quote, if market quotations are
available, or the last closing bid price, if there is no active trading in a
particular security for a given day (except for the Neuberger&Berman Partners
Mid Cap Value Portfolio, which would be valued at the mean between closing bid
and asked price). Where market quotations are not readily available for such
non-domestic over-the-counter securities, then such securities will be valued in
good faith by a method that the Board of Directors, or its delegates, believe
accurately reflects fair value. Portfolio securities which are traded both in
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. Securities and
assets for which market quotations are not readily available (e.g. certain
long-term bonds and notes) 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 and
typically utilized by other institutional-sized trading organizations. Forward
foreign currency exchange contracts are valued based on the closing prices of
the forward currency contract rates in the London foreign exchange markets on a
daily basis as provided by a reliable bank or dealer. Short-term instruments
with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued utilizing the
amortized cost method of valuation. If for any reason the fair value of any
security is not fairly reflected by such method, such security will be valued by
the same methods as securities having a maturity of more than sixty days.

Options, whether on securities, indices, or futures contracts, are valued at the
last sales price available as of the close of business on the day of valuation
or, if no sale, at the mean between the bid and asked prices. Options on
currencies are valued at the spot price each day. As a general matter, futures
contracts are marked-to-market daily. The value of futures contracts will be the
sum of the margin deposit plus or minus the difference between the value of the
futures contract on each day the net asset value is calculated and the value on
the date the futures contract originated, value being that established on a
recognized commodity exchange, or by reference to other customary sources, with
gain or loss being realized when the futures contract closes or expires.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
B.   INVESTMENT SECURITY TRANSACTIONS:

Portfolio 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 on investments and
unrealized appreciation and depreciation are determined on the identified cost
basis, which is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes. Asset and
liability accounts that are denominated in foreign currencies are adjusted to
reflect current exchange rates prevailing on the respective dates traded.
 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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. The Santander International Stock Portfolio
fully used its carryover loss of approximately $6,941,088 in 1998. At December
31, 1998, the T. Rowe Price Small Cap Growth Portfolio had available for federal
income tax purposes an unused capital loss carryover of approximately
$13,167,975 ($69,489 will expire in 2005 and the remainder in 2006).
 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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.

The State Street Research Aggressive Growth Portfolio incurred net investment
losses of $1,338,007 during 1996, $1,659,985 during 1997 and $2,656,277 during
1998, which has been reclassified to paid-in-capital at December 31, 1996,
December 31, 1997 and December 31, 1998, respectively. The T. Rowe Price Small
Cap Growth Portfolio incurred net investment losses of $32,023 during 1998,
which has been reclassified to paid-in-capital at December 31, 1998.
 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 on 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 canceled.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 1998
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (CONTINUED):

F.   REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS:

The Fund requires the custodian to take possession, to have legally segregated
in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System, or to have segregated within the
custodian's vault, all securities held as collateral for repurchase agreements.
The market value of the underlying securities is required to be at least 102% of
the resale price at the time of purchase. If the seller of the agreement
defaults, and the value of the collateral declines, or if the seller enters an
insolvency proceeding, realization of the value of the collateral by the Fund
may be delayed or limited.
 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
G.   ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principals 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 State Street Research Income Portfolio holds seven securities, the State
Street Research Diversified Portfolio holds nine securities, the Loomis Sayles
High Yield Bond Portfolio holds twenty securities, and the Lehman Brothers
Aggregate Bond Index Portfolio holds one security 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 expense. 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 State Street
Research Money Market Portfolio and the Scudder Global Equity Portfolio where
the restriction is 10% of net assets. Restricted securities (including Rule 144A
issues) held at December 31, 1998 are footnoted at the end of each applicable
Portfolio's schedule of investments.

B.   INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT FEE WAIVER:

Metropolitan Life has agreed to waive a portion of its investment management fee
for the Scudder Global Equity Portfolio during the first year of the Portfolio's
operations. For the first six months, the waiver equaled .35% of the average
daily value of the aggregate net assets of the Portfolio up to $50 million,
 .175% of such assets on the next $50 million, .15% of such assets on the next
$400 million and .1375% of such assets on amounts in excess of $500 million.
During the second six months of the Portfolio's operations, such waiver of the
investment management fee is equal to .175% of assets up to $50 million, .0875%
of assets on the next $50 million, .075% of assets on the next $400 million and
 .06875% of such assets in excess of $500 million.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
C.   SUBSIDIZATION OF PORTFOLIOS:

Metropolitan Life has agreed to subsidize all expenses, excluding those listed
below, in excess of .20% of the net assets of Loomis Sayles High Yield Bond,
Janus Mid Cap, T. Rowe Price Small Cap Growth, Scudder Global Equity, Harris
Oakmark Large Cap Value, Neuberger&Berman Partners Mid Cap Value, T. Rowe Price
Large Cap Growth, Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, and Russell 2000 Index
Portfolios. For the Morgan Stanley EAFE Index Portfolio, subsidization is capped
at .25%. Subsidization will continue until either each Portfolio's total net
assets are at least $100 million, or after two years from inception, whichever
is earlier. Subsidization ceased December 31, 1997 for the Janus Mid Cap,
January 22, 1998 for the T. Rowe Price Small Cap Growth, and July 2, 1998 for
the Scudder Global Equity Portfolios when those Portfolios exceeded the $100
million threshold.

Expenses excluded from subsidization are: 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
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).
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.   DIVIDEND DISTRIBUTIONS:

The Fund distributes, at least annually, substantially all net investment
income, if any, of each Portfolio, which will then be reinvested in additional
full and fractional shares of the Portfolio. All net realized long-term or
short-term capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and distributed at
least annually to the shareholders of the Portfolio(s) to which such gains are
attributable.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5.   NEW PORTFOLIOS:

On March 3, 1997, the Fund commenced operations of four Portfolios: Loomis
Sayles High Yield Bond, Janus Mid Cap, T. Rowe Price Small Cap Growth, and
Scudder Global Equity Portfolios. Metropolitan Life supplied initial start-up
capital of $22,000,000 to facilitate the operation of these Portfolios.
Subsequently, these Portfolios were made available for certain contracts. As of
December 31, 1998, all start-up capital for the four Portfolios introduced in
1997 (including applicable market appreciation) has been redeemed by
Metropolitan Life.

On November 9, 1998, the Fund commenced operations of six Portfolios: Harris
Oakmark Large Cap Value, Neuberger&Berman Partners Mid Cap Value, T. Rowe Price
Large Cap Growth, Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, Morgan Stanley EAFE
Index, and Russell 2000 Index Portfolios. Metropolitan Life supplied initial
start-up capital of $112,000,000 to facilitate the operation of these
Portfolios. Metropolitan Life, therefore, purchased 500,000 shares of the Harris
Oakmark Large Cap Value Portfolio, 500,000 shares of the Neuberger&Berman
Partners Mid Cap Value Portfolio, 200,000 shares of the T. Rowe Price Large Cap
Growth Portfolio, 5,000,000 shares of the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index
Portfolio, 2,000,000 shares of the Morgan Stanley EAFE Index Portfolio, and
3,000,000 shares of the Russell 2000 Index Portfolio, with each Portfolio valued
at $10 per share. Subsequently, these Portfolios were made available for certain
contracts. As of December 31, 1998, the value of Metropolitan Life's investment
in these Portfolios totaled $115,909,000.
 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6.   PORTFOLIO NAME CHANGES:

On March 3, 1997, the names of the Growth Portfolio, Income Portfolio, Money
Market Portfolio, Diversified Portfolio, Aggressive Growth Portfolio, Stock
Index Portfolio, and International Stock Portfolio changed. These Portfolios
were renamed as follows: State Street Research Growth Portfolio, State Street
Research Income Portfolio, MetLife Money Market Portfolio, State Street Research
Diversified Portfolio, State Street Research Aggressive Growth Portfolio,
MetLife Stock Index Portfolio, and GFM International Stock Portfolio. On August
1, 1997, the names of the MetLife Money Market Portfolio and GFM International
Stock Portfolio were changed to the State Street Research Money Market Portfolio
and the State Street Research International Stock Portfolio, respectively.
Subsequently, on November 9, 1998 the name of the State Street Research
International Stock Portfolio was changed to the Santander International Stock
Portfolio.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7.   SECURITIES LENDING:

On December 15, 1997, the Fund entered into a securities lending arrangement
with the Fund's custodian, State Street Bank and Trust Co. (the "custodian").
Under the agreement, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on the
Fund's behalf. In exchange, the Fund receives collateral against the loaned
securities. Each Portfolio receives collateral at least equal to 102% of the
market value of the loaned securities (105% for foreign securities), at each
loan's inception. Collateral must be maintained at least at 100% of the market
value of the loaned securities for the duration of the loan. The collateral is
invested in the Navigator Securities Lending Prime Portfolio, which invests in a
variety of high quality U.S. dollar-denominated instruments. The Fund receives
70% of the annual net income from lending transactions, which is included in
interest income of the respective Portfolios. The Fund bears the risk of any
deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return to a borrower due to
a loss in an approved investment. Portfolios with outstanding loans at December
31, 1998 are footnoted at the end of each applicable Portfolio's schedule of
investments.
