Zenith Loomis Sayles Small Cap Series
Portfolio Managers: Mary Champagne and Jeffrey Petherick;Loomis Sayles &
Company, L.P.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MARKET REVIEW
The Series had a return for the first six months of 1995 of 11.09%, compared
to a rise of 14.40% in the Russell 2000 Index/3/ for the same period. At
6/30/95, the growth portion accounted for 48% of total assets of the Series,
but this portion is expected to shift towards stocks with good earnings
potential that may be undervalued by the market during the second half of the
year.
During the early part of the year, large capitalization stocks were the
focus of interest, as investors flocked to the relative safety of the biggest
and most conservative companies. Despite a market that favored these well-
established, proven companies, the smaller cap stocks in our portfolio held
their own. In fact, although small caps lagged large caps for much of the
first half of the year, this gap has begun to narrow. As the economy continues
to slow, opportunity-minded stock market investors have begun to move beyond
the giants to small and mid-sized companies in search of stocks that may
deliver higher earnings growth.
On the growth side, we emphasized companies with strong fundamentals--above-
average profitability, skilled management with a clear growth strategy, and
most importantly, a clearly defined, attractive market niche. Although we
generally concentrate our search on companies with a market capitalization of
less than $500 million, we do have the flexibility to move into somewhat
larger companies--an option that we exercised during the first six months of
the year. We kept up weightings in technology and healthcare, and recently
broadened the portfolio to include some retail and financial stocks, as well
as some well-positioned cyclicals.
On the value side, the Series remains well diversified. Because our goal is
to add value through stock selection, rather than through sector bets, we're
typically not dramatically overweighted or underweighted in any particular
sector or industry. We are instead stock pickers, searching for those issues
that are out of favor, yet have strong earnings potential. Stocks that met our
demanding criteria include those in the financial services, energy and
technology sectors.
OUTLOOK AND STRATEGY
Looking ahead, our forecast is slow economic growth with a possible pickup
in the economy towards the latter half of the year. In such an environment, we
expect the market to continue to perform well and to expand its breadth beyond
the blue chips. In the months ahead, we anticipate small cap stocks may be
positioned to do well in a broadening market.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MARKET REVIEW
Instability characterized much of the international investment scene for the
first six months of 1995. The dollar's drop to historic lows against the
Japanese yen and the German mark early in the year was widely thought to hurt
the earnings outlook for many export-oriented international companies,
particularly Japan's. Add to this Mexico's sharp devaluation of the peso,
which had a ripple effect throughout many Latin American countries, and the
result was a challenging climate for international stocks.
In addition, most major international markets felt the effects of a cyclical
slowdown early in the year. Many countries, coming off periods of strong
economic growth, generated growth rates far below investors' expectations. An
example is Japan, which ended the first half of the year with the worst return
of the major markets down 14% in U.S. dollar terms. There were bright spots,
however. In contrast to Japan, Switzerland rewarded investors with a positive
return of 22% in U.S. dollar terms through the end of June. Such figures
indicate the wide disparity in international investment performance for the
first two quarters of "95.
Against this backdrop, the Series posted a total return of 0.68% for the six
months ended June 30, 1995 versus a total return of 2.61% for the Morgan
Stanley Capital EAFE Index/4/, an index that includes stocks traded on 16
exchanges in Europe, Australia and the Far East.
During the early part of 1995, we focused on those countries, sectors and
issues which we believed would benefit the most in a predominantly slow-growth
international environment. The Series remained fully invested among more than
14 countries, with heavy weightings in the United Kingdom, France, Switzerland
and the Netherlands. Despite a pervasive slowdown in much of Europe, these
countries continued to offer attractive stock valuations. This experience was
in sharp contrast to the rest of Europe where, seeing little in the way of
significant growth prospects, we underweighted the Series.
Perhaps the most significant change to the portfolio occurred early in the
year when we dramatically reduced our Japanese exposure. Despite the
beginnings of a cyclical recovery in the Japanese stock market last year,
deflationary forces began to intensify once again--a situation which we
believed might soon force the Japanese economy into a recession. Consequently,
we cut back our Japanese holdings from a high of approximately 40% of Series
assets at the beginning of the first quarter to our current 22.5%--a position
which is quite low relative to the Morgan Stanley Capital EAFE Index/4/. We
then shifted assets to Southeast Asian countries, such as Singapore, Malaysia,
and Thailand, which now offer increasingly attractive investment
opportunities.
When selecting stocks for the Series, we follow a carefully defined, top-
down investment approach. We focus first on countries with stable economies,
then seek to identify the most profitable sectors and industries within those
countries. Sectors we focused on early in 1995 included interest-sensitive
industries in Europe and the financial services sector in Japan.
During this period, we continued to emphasize blue-chip companies in major
non-U.S. markets. SmithKline Beecham, representing 0.8% of the portfolio, is
one example of the type of stock we selected. This major British
pharmaceutical company is undergoing financial and operational restructuring,
and is developing promising new products. Elsewhere in Europe, we bought
shares of Spain's Acerinox, Europe's largest stainless steel producer,
representing 2.7% of the portfolio. Benefiting from the combination of a weak
Spanish currency and the devaluation of the Mexican peso, Acerinox is also
enjoying a substantial increase in output from its Mexican operation. One of
4
<PAGE>
our favorite Japanese stocks was Kirin Beverage, 0.3% of the portfolio, the
country's largest soft drink manufacturer. Unlike many Japanese firms, Kirin
Beverage is not exposed to outside competition, a fact that appears to be
helping them to rapidly grow their soft drinks, tea and coffee markets.
Our disciplined strategy also led us to avoid Mexico and the extremely
speculative markets of Latin America during the early part of the year. This
deliberate move helped shelter the Series from dramatic underperformance in
that corner of the world.
OUTLOOK AND STRATEGY
Our strategy for the remainder of the year remains essentially unchanged
from what is currently in place. Looking ahead, we expect slow growth to
continue for most major international markets through the remainder of 1995,
and into 1996. As economies around the world slow, however, there is the
increasing possibility that a recession will grip one or more of the developed
nations. Therefore, we are cautiously evaluating each new investment
opportunity as it arises. However, we do not share the prevailing opinion that
interest rates will increase worldwide; rather, we anticipate a stable-to-
lower rate environment, which would bode well for international stocks.
Finally, although Japan continues to make up a significant portion of the
portfolio, we are taking a somewhat neutral stance in terms of future
positioning. Long-term, we remain optimistic about the Japanese economy. In
the near term, however, we're awaiting significant forward-going changes in
government policy before we increase our holdings in Japan.

Zenith Alger Equity Growth Series
Portfolio Manager: David D. Alger; Fred Alger Management, Inc.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MARKET REVIEW
The Series entered the year in a very bullish posture and has been rewarded
with excellent results. For the six months ended June 30, 1995, the Series
returned 34.43% and according to Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. is rated
first out of eighty-nine Funds in the Lipper Variable Growth and Income Fund
Index for the period. Over the same period the S&P 500 Index** was up 20.15%.
The nature of markets is such that because of institutionalization, computers
and the globalization of finance, market moves are faster and more pronounced
than ever. Having a sense of the discontinuities is all the more important. In
our opinion, one glaring discontinuity is that despite this year's upside move
in the market and the Series' holdings, growth stocks remained exceedingly
undervalued.
As of June 30, 1995, the Series held 76 stocks with a median price/earnings
ratio of 22.4x, a weighted average estimated 1995 earnings per share (EPS)
growth of 37.6% and a weighted average annual five year EPS growth estimate of
21.4 %. The weighted average market cap was $12.5 billion. The top three
industry sectors at the quarter end were semi-conductors, healthcare and
retail. During the first six months of 1995, the Series purchased 57 new
stocks and eliminated 11 stocks. The Series held 24 stocks for the entire
period. Of the stocks held for the six month period, 20 advanced and 4
declined in price. The Series did not invest in derivative securities during
the quarter.
As 1995 dawned, the key questions facing the stock market concerned the need
for future tightening of interest rates by the Fed, the possible onset of
inflation and the excessive strength of the economy, all of which are
naturally interrelated. Now we are at mid-year and the concern of the markets
is not whether the economy is growing too fast, but whether it is growing too
slowly. In response to the sluggish economy the Federal Reserve lowered the
Fed Funds Rate by one quarter of a point on July 6, 1995, just after the
period's end. Currently, we believe we may be at an inflection point in the
economy and instead of a "soft landing" we may have a "touch and go landing."
At present, however, the inflation picture looks fair. I believe that
inflation will remain subdued for the year as a whole because of the slowing
in the economy. The key of course to continued record stock prices in the
market is the Fed.
OUTLOOK AND STRATEGY
Despite the rally year-to-date, growth stocks remain generally underpriced
relative to the market. Technology stocks continue to represent excellent
investments. While they have moved up a great deal, so have their earnings.
Consequently, their multiples have not increased. To get back to traditional
valuations, growth stocks could outperform relative to the general market over
the next few years. This would be combined with a generally optimistic feeling
about the market. This has been curiously absent despite the market's
strength. It is as though all of the "pundits" that were so negative last year
are "in denial" about this very strong market. The current sense of disbelief
about the permanence of this market rally is both refreshing (because it means
there is plenty of buying power left) and puzzling. It appears as though the
last two red lights on the road ahead, which are Fed Policy and the
possibility of a recession, have just turned green. Currently, short interest
is at a record high and stock buybacks still exceed new issues. We are
extremely excited about the prospects for the market and especially growth
stocks during the next five years, although there can be no assurance this
forecast will be borne out.

Zenith Capital Growth Series
Portfolio Manager: G. Kenneth Heebner; Capital Growth Management, L.P.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MARKET REVIEW
The Zenith Capital Growth Series achieved a total return of 27.55% for the
six months ended 6/30/95. This compared favorably to the 20.15% return of the
Standard & Poor's 500 Index** for the same six-month period.
In the first quarter of 1995, evidence of a weakening economy appeared in
the auto and housing sectors. The trend continued throughout the second
quarter spreading to retail sales and cutting construction spending by 1.5% in
May to make the month the worst in four years for construction spending and
the second down month in a row. Signs of weakness also took their toll on
consumer confidence as measured by an index drop from 102 in April to 92.8 in
May.
OUTLOOK AND STRATEGY
In its attempt to contain inflation, has the Federal Reserve Board
engineered the very first "soft landing" (slowdown without recession), or has
it ushered in a recession? Though the answer remains to be seen, we favor the
soft landing scenario. Lower interest rates will encourage consumer spending
in the months ahead. In fact, signs of an increase in consumer spending were
already evident in late June and employment gains were well above average.
Personal income should continue to rise and the weaker dollar might well
stimulate exports.
Interest rates on long-term government bonds have fallen significantly to
6.5% from 8.3% in the fall of 1994. We expect the decline in rates to carry
into 1996 as we experience a slow growth economy with no immediate threat of
higher inflation.
While the diminished threat of inflation and weaker business activity helped
bring about lower interest rates for the bond market, the driving force behind
the equity market has been rising corporate profits. One year ago, the
estimate of earnings per share of the S&P 500 Index** was $27. The S&P 500
Index** was at 444, a price 16.5 times earnings. Today, after an increase of
23%, the S&P 500 Index** has reached 544. However, the current earnings
estimate of $34 prices the market once again at roughly 16 times earnings.
The Series is positioned to capitalize on continued growth in corporate
earnings with major emphasis on technology, airlines and New York City banks.
The Series' three largest holdings are Citicorp (7.1% of the portfolio),
Hewlett-Packard Company (6.5% of the portfolio) and the Intel Corporation
(6.3% of the portfolio).

Zenith Loomis Sayles Avanti Growth Series
Portfolio Managers: Richard Hurckes and Scott Pape; Loomis Sayles & Company,
L.P.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MARKET REVIEW
Equity markets in general, and growth stocks in particular, delivered very
strong results in the first six months of 1995. The economy has been expanding
rapidly, though this growth is beginning to moderate somewhat. Various
factors, including declining long-term interest rates, improving productivity
and low inflation, have been responsible for the strong profits that American
corporations have enjoyed year to date. In quite a few cases, corporations are
even outperforming their own expectations.
The decline of the U.S. dollar gave American companies doing business abroad
a competitive advantage. Corporations such as Coca-Cola and Gillette, who do a
large portion of their business outside the U.S., have posted record profits
thus far in 1995.
The market's focus on growth stocks during the first six months of 1995
enabled us to generate strong returns for the Series. The Series achieved an
impressive total return of 19.94% at net asset value as of 6/30/95. The Series
out performed its peer group, the Lipper Variable Growth Fund Average/7/, by
201 basis points.
We continue to pursue our investment approach of striving to build a
portfolio of America's premier companies--industry leaders with prospects for
better-than-average earnings growth. We also seek to identify companies that
have strong balance sheets and proven management teams.
Examples of our approach that have been very successful are McDonald's and
Coca-Cola, each representing 2.5% of the portfolio. Both are market leaders,
enjoy a significant international presence and have consistently delivered
strong earnings. In healthcare, Medtronic is the leading worldwide
manufacturer of pacemakers and implantable defibrillators. Intel and
Microsoft, representing 1.3% and 2.7% of the portfolio respectively, are
dominant in their industries and consistently on the cutting edge of
technological innovations. All these companies of the Series reported better
than expected earnings growth in the first half of 1995.
Because the market favored large-capitalization growth companies, the
Series' portfolio now holds a majority of its assets in this sector. We also
have a sizeable portion of the portfolio invested in emerging or mid-sized
companies where we anticipate strong growth potential later this year and into
1996. In anticipation of a slowing economy we reduced our exposure to stocks
that are cyclical in nature, selling or reducing positions in the energy,
retail and auto industries.
OUTLOOK AND STRATEGY
Over the next six months we may continue to overweight the sectors that have
contributed to the Series' strong year-to-date performance because we believe
they will continue to grow.
. TECHNOLOGY Both hardware and software companies did extremely well
because of the expanding economy and the increased momentum toward
networking for the private and business sectors.
. FINANCIAL SERVICES The expanding economy and declining interest rates
benefited banks and other financial institutions. There was an increase
in the number of credit cards issued, and the lower interest rates led to
increased numbers of loan applications.
. HEALTHCARE The health care debate in 1994 succeeded in bringing down the
stock prices of many well-established, solid companies. However, with the
failure to pass reforms and the realization that changes will take time,
we've seen several of these companies return to favor this year.
10
<PAGE>
. CONSUMER NON-DURABLES The decline of the dollar was good news for
American companies that supply consumable products such as food and
beverages to foreign countries.
We also believe that over the next six months the economy may continue to
grow, but at a slower pace. Leading companies with proprietary products and
dominant market positions may continue to generate strong earnings growth.
While during the first six months of 1995 the Series concentrated on large,
blue-chip companies, we believe that more growth opportunities in the second
half of 1995 may be found in emerging and mid-sized companies.
As always, we are committed to building a top portfolio of leading American
companies that are positioned to do well over the long term.

Zenith Venture Value Series
Portfolio Manger: Shelby M.C. Davis; Selected/Venture Advisers, L.P.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Zenith Venture Value Series ended the six months through June 30, 1995
with a total return of 22.77% compared to a return of 20.15% for the S&P 500
Index** for the same period.
MARKET REVIEW
Financial stocks have performed well in the first half of 1995 spurred by a
robust bond market rally. The large capitalization stocks in which the
portfolio has substantial positions have also led the advance. Also, while the
portfolio has just a modest weighting in tech stocks -about 10%- the few names
in that group, like Hewlett-Packard, Texas Instruments and Intel, have
performed nicely over this period.
OUTLOOK AND STRATEGY
The Series has a large concentration of financial stocks. It is our sense
that the market has been trained to sell financial stocks in periods of rising
interest rates without regard to the underlying fundamentals. We hope that
this environment has created good buying opportunities in many of our core
holdings and we have taken advantage of price weakness to add to these
positions. Selected/Venture Advisers believes that the long-term growth
potential for financial stocks is strong while the downside risk is limited,
thanks, in part, to higher-than-market dividend yields and lower-than-market
price/earnings ratios.
At Selected/Venture Advisers we remain concerned about inflation. As a
hedge, the portfolio is building a position in oil stocks, with a recent
emphasis on Amerada Hess. For similar reasons, the portfolio has taken a
larger position in real estate investment trusts.

Zenith Westpeak Value Growth Series
Portfolio Managers: Gerald H. Scriver and Philip J. Cooper; Westpeak
Investment Advisors, L.P.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MARKET REVIEW
The Zenith Westpeak Value Growth Series began operations on May 1, 1993. For
the six month period ending June 30, 1995, the Series returned 20.50%, while
the S&P 500 Index** returned 20.15% for the same time period. This performance
placed the Series 4th out of 55 funds in the Lipper Variable Growth and Income
Funds Index/1//2/. Since inception on May 1, 1993, the Series returned 36.00%,
while the S&P 500** returned 31.76%. This performance placed the Series 2nd
out of 40 funds in the above-referenced Lipper index for this period.
The first half of 1995 saw the S&P 500** return 20.15%, while the U.S. Long-
Term Treasury Bond returned 18.64%. As we expected, the S&P/BARRA Growth
Index/8/ outperformed the S&P/BARRA Value Index/9/ by 2.05% for the first six
months of 1995. For the past 12 months, the Growth Index/8/ outperformed the
Value Index/9/ by 9.54%. The technology sector was responsible for much of the
Growth Index's superior performance.
We believe the growth sector of the stock market will continue to lead the
way over the next quarter. However, market leadership should begin to change
to value type stocks as we approach the end of the year. By this time, we
could be approaching the "blowoff" stage of the market, at which time the
technology stocks would be vulnerable to a major setback.
During the first half of 1995, the Series benefited significantly from its
holdings in technology stocks. For the second quarter of 1995, the Series
returned 12.20% compared to 9.52% for the S&P 500. Significant contributors to
portfolio performance were Hewlett-Packard, up 24.16%; Intel, up 49.22%; Dell
Computer Corp., up 37.42%; and Andrew Corp., up 42.06%.
OUTLOOK AND STRATEGY
We believe the economy will stay subdued enough for the near term to reduce
inflationary pressures. This should allow the Fed to lower short-term interest
rates again soon. As a result, long-term rates will continue to decline, but
the bond rally will probably not extend into 1996. Under this scenario, the
bond market provides protection for the stock market, but a build-up in
speculation may be a warning that risk is increasing for stocks. Continued
cuts in short-term rates could lead to a further rush to buy stocks that
should last until late this year.
As we enter the third quarter of 1995, we remain overweighted in technology
and interest sensitive stocks, and underweighted in the consumer sector of the
stock market. However, we continue to believe that it is getting late in the
cycle for technology stocks and would expect to scale back if these stocks
move into the explosive stage.

Zenith Westpeak Stock Index Series
Portfolio Managers: Gerald H. Scriver and Philip J. Cooper; Westpeak
Investment Advisors, L.P.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MARKET REVIEW
The Zenith Westpeak Stock Index Series returned 20.03% compared to a return
of 20.15% for the S&P 500 Index** for the six month period ending June 30,
1995.
The Series is managed so as to track the performance of the S&P 500 Index**.
Westpeak's approach is to seek to emulate the S&P 500 Index** by owning a
majority of the stocks in the Index in the same proportion as the Index. This
process minimizes the tracking error to the Index. For example, during the
second quarter of 1995, the Series returned 9.55% while the S&P 500 Index**
returned 9.52%
OUTLOOK AND STRATEGY
We believe the economy will stay subdued enough for the near term to reduce
inflationary pressures. This should allow the Fed to lower short-term interest
rates again soon. As a result, long-term rates will continue to decline, but
the bond rally will probably not extend into 1996. Under this scenario, the
bond market provides protection for the stock market, but a build-up in
speculation is a warning that risk is increasing for stocks. We expect that
continued cuts in short-term rates could lead to a further rush to buy stocks
that should last until late this year.

Zenith Loomis Sayles Balanced Series
Portfolio Managers: Meri Anne Beck and Douglas D. Ramos; Loomis, Sayles &
Company, L.P.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MARKET REVIEW
Stock and bond markets posted excellent returns in the first six months of
1995. As measured by the Standard & Poor's 500 Index**, stocks produced a
total return of 20.15% for the six month period. Bonds, as measured by the 30-
year U.S. Treasury, returned 18.64% for the same period. Cash equivalents, as
measured by the 3-month Treasury bill, returned a meager 3.0% for the six
months ended 6/30/95. The total return for the Series for the six months ended
6/30/95 was 15.79%.
Asset allocation was a positive factor during the quarter. The Series held
very limited amounts of cash equivalents, though cash flows were substantial
in relation to the Series' size. During the second quarter, the percentage
held in stocks exceeded 50%, with 57% invested in stocks at June 30, a
positive for Fund performance. While the fixed-income portfolio outperformed
its benchmark, it did not come close to generating the returns posted by the
30-year Treasury. The equity portfolio, on the other hand, outperformed the
S&P 500 Index**.
Bond market investors went from celebrating the arrival of a "soft landing"
in the first quarter to concern about a "bumpy" to "belly" landing during the
second quarter. U.S. Treasuries and non-callable corporate bonds did provide
the best overall results. These bonds generally provide the most upside in
terms of price appreciation during strong rallies. Corporate bonds continued
to do very well as quality spreads have generally narrowed throughout the
market rally this year.
Stock market investors, helped by the bond markets, seemed to assume that
the Fed would do the right thing and keep the economy's growth fast enough to
support corporate profit growth but slow enough to keep inflation and interest
rates in check. Technology continued to lead the market and the equity
portfolio's performance. Within the portfolio's technology sector, the best
performing industry by far was electrical components thanks to the outstanding
returns generated by semiconductor stocks, Intel and Texas Instruments. The
financial sector was the second positive factor, while the negative for
portfolio performance was the energy sector, with natural gas pipelines and
major integrated oils performing equally badly.
OUTLOOK AND STRATEGY
Looking forward, our economists are projecting a "growth recession" for the
middle two quarters of 1995 followed by a stronger economy by year's end. The
odds of a recession are very small and the economy simply does not need the
Fed to move interest rates aggressively lower. Assuming no unexpected weakness
develops and a "soft takeoff" beginning in the fourth quarter of 1995, the
bigger part of the bond market rally may be behind us. In retrospect, it is
quite surprising that the stock market did so well in the second quarter after
such a strong first quarter performance and three discount rate increases. The
stock market appears to believe the Fed has succeeded in producing a slowdown
without a recession and is looking past the current slowdown. That said, it
would be even more surprising if the fireworks continued in the second half.
This is not to say that conditions are unfavorable. We will stick with the
current asset allocation, of approximately 60% stocks and 40% bonds.

Zenith Back Bay Advisors Managed Series
Portfolio Manager: Peter Palfrey; Back Bay Advisors, L.P.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MARKET REVIEW
The Zenith Managed Series ended the first six months of 1995 significantly
ahead of its peer group of Lipper Variable Flexible Funds Average/1//1/ which
includes 64 funds, with a total return of 16.82%, versus the comparable Lipper
average of 13.45%--an outperformance of 337 basis points. For the twelve month
period ended June 30, the Zenith Managed Series posted top 10% performance
with a total return of 21.13% versus 15.88% for its peer group average--an
outperformance of 525 basis points. During the first half of 1995, the Managed
Series remained "fully invested" in stocks and bonds, with an average asset
allocation of approximately 65% stocks, 33% bonds and 2% in cash equivalents.
This compares to the 62% stocks, 27% bonds and 13% in cash equivalents under
more adverse market conditions over the same period last year.
Year to date, stocks and bonds have enjoyed one of the best bull markets in
years. The S&P 500 Index** (including reinvestment of dividends) is up 20.15%
for the six months ended June 30. Bonds, as represented by the Lehman
Intermediate Government/Corporate Bond Index***, are up 9.60% over the same
period. Moderating U.S. economic growth (slowing from last year's heated
pace), coupled with benign inflationary data and the perception that the
Federal Reserve was shifting to a more neutral monetary policy, has driven
interest rates 150-200 basis points lower from year-end 1994 levels. Stocks,
in turn, have been buoyed by continued strong corporate earnings, lower
interest rates, a more accommodative stance by the Federal Reserve and the
prospect of a prolonged period of moderate but sustainable economic expansion.
OUTLOOK AND STRATEGY
The U.S. economy, which had shown considerable resilience to the rate hikes
orchestrated by the Federal Reserve over the preceding 12 months, finally
started to react to the more restrictive monetary policy in 1995. Second
quarter economic activity, particularly in the manufacturing sector, has shown
a marked slowdown. Citing the increased risk of a mild recession, a cautious
Federal Reserve Board elected to reverse course, voting in early July to ease
short rates by 1/4%. However, with the Fed's move already priced into the
fixed income market, investor euphoria proved short-lived. The most recent
economic data and comments from Fed officials suggest that additional easing
by the Federal Reserve is not imminent, and may prove unnecessary to keep the
U.S. economy moving along the Fed's targeted 2.5% annual growth trendline.
The recent uncertainty over future Fed policy direction heightened
volatility in both the bond and stock markets. Longer duration fixed-income
securities, in particular, have been under considerable pressure thus far in
the 3rd quarter, as market participants have been quick to seize on recent
strength in economic data as an excuse to reduce exposure. However, with the
inflation outlook still favorable, and with significantly above trendline
economic growth over the next several quarters unlikely, we remain
constructive on the fixed income market and may look to add duration if long
rates back up behind 7%. Similarly, neutral Fed monetary policy and stable to
declining interest rates, coupled with steady earnings growth, has been the
recipe for successive new highs in the stock market thus far in 1995. While
current stock valuations depend on relatively aggressive earnings forecasts
and look to be approaching "fully priced" by many historical measures, we feel
that there is still additional upside in stocks over the next several
quarters. However, this is likely to come at the cost of increased volatility.
Increased volatility is to be expected after a runup such as seen in the first
half of 1995. With solid fundamentals underpinning the market, investors can
take advantage of this higher volatility to increase exposure to stocks on
corrections.

Zenith Salomon Brothers Strategic Bond Opportunities Series
Portfolio Managers: Steven Guterman, Peter J. Wilby and David Scott;
Salomon Brothers Asset Management Inc
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MARKET REVIEW
The U.S. fixed income markets staged a dramatic rally during the first half
of 1995. Consistently weak economic data forced buyers into the market and
pushed yields on two-year through ten-year benchmarks down by more than 100
basis points. The total return for the Series for the six month period ended
6/30/95 was 12.32%, versus 11.44% for the Lehman Aggregate Bond Index./2/
The strong performance of the Series was driven by gains of a little over 6%
in both the high yield and investment grade markets and a 22% gain in emerging
markets for the quarter, as defined by the appropriate Salomon Brothers
benchmarks.
The strong second quarter performance of emerging market debt resulted from
a combination of technical and fundamental factors. From a technical
standpoint, U.S. mutual funds and Japanese banks ended their widespread
selling of emerging market debt at March quarter-end. Fundamentally, a number
of positive developments helped the performance of the market. Poland received
an investment grade debt rating from Moody's, becoming the first Brady Bond
issuer to achieve investment grade status. Argentine President Menem was re-
elected by a comfortable margin in May, removing a potential uncertainty from
the outlook for the country. Mexico stabilized the peso during the June
quarter as the country continued to make progress in solving its liquidity
problem.
The Series is currently allocated as follows: 16% in non-U.S. investment
grade government bonds, 20% in U.S. investment grade securities, 40% in high
yield corporates, 22% in emerging market debt and 2% in short term
investments.
OUTLOOK AND STRATEGY
We are maintaining the exposure we had in the second quarter to the emerging
debt markets (approximately 22%); we believe that favorable developments in
this market should continue to provide investment opportunities. We are also
constructive on the U.S. high yield fixed income markets and plan to be
overweight in this sector. We believe both these sectors are attractive in a
low- to slow-growth environment.

Zenith Back Bay Advisors Bond Income Series
Portfolio Manager: Cathy Bunting; Back Bay Advisors, L.P.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MARKET REVIEW
The bond market staged a strong rally in the first half of 1995 as investors
grew more and more optimistic about the outlook for fixed-income securities.
The Federal Reserve Board's February 1995 rate increase, the last in a year-
long series, helped achieve the Fed's goal of cooling the economy while
allaying investor fears of rekindled inflation. The market drew strength from
the growing prospect of declining interest rates, which it saw as a likely
byproduct of a slowing economy. Sluggish economic activity, which implies
lower inflation, therefore led bond prices higher beginning early in the year,
in anticipation of lower rates to come. The markets' expectations proved
accurate as the Federal Reserve Board cut the Fed Funds rate by 1/4 of a
percentage point, just after the period's end, on July 6, 1995.
Overall, corporate bonds outperformed U.S. government securities thanks
primarily to rising corporate profits. Strong equity markets also benefited
bonds, as investor confidence spread to fixed-income securities; rising stock
prices also meant lower dividend yields, diminishing the appeal of stocks for
income-oriented investors. And for most of the period, the supply of corporate
securities of the type the Series invests in was restrained.
The economic scenario we have been observing is the much-discussed "soft
landing". Despite slowdowns in key industries like housing, retail sales and
manufactured goods, the economy appears to be slackening without sliding into
recession. Companies are maintaining inventories to support current sales
levels, in contrast to late 1994 when firms stockpiled inventory to meet
anticipated demand for goods.
The Series turned in a strong performance in the first half of 1995. Within
an overall climate of robust markets and improving corporate earnings, a
number of sectors contributed to the Series' positive results. For the period
January through June, the Series had a total return on net asset value of
13.1%. This compares favorably with a return of 9.60% for the Lehman
Intermediate Government/Corporate Bond Index***, and 11.6% for the Lipper
Variable A-Rated Corporate Bond Fund Average/1//0/ for the same period.
To take advantage of strength where it was most concentrated, we committed
around 10% of the portfolio to the electric and gas utilities and 9% to the
cable and media sectors. We favored gas utilities because of increased
profitability in the sector. Electric utilities were attractive thanks to an
overall industry recovery, improved balance sheets and our belief that these
securities had overreacted to the prospect of competition in their
marketplaces. In the cable and media sectors, takeovers and consolidations led
to stronger credits and a number of upgrades.
We also devoted almost 15% of the Series to Canadian securities, both U.S.
dollar- and Canadian dollar-denominated. In Canada we were attracted to better
yields than were available domestically. The Canadian dollar is stabilizing
and Canadian goods, at today's currency levels, are attractively priced in
world markets. In addition, concerns about the separatist movement in Quebec
have abated in the wake of flagging popular support. Canada also appears to be
taking effective steps to deal with its budget deficit.
We are also holding a smaller percentage of the Series in corporates than
has been our practice. With corporate bond yields not much higher than those
available on U.S. Treasuries, we feel that the higher quality of the U.S.
government issues is an attractive trade-off for the slight give-up in income.
Therefore the portfolio's overall quality is roughly equivalent to a security
rated in the lower range of AA.
22
<PAGE>
OUTLOOK AND STRATEGY
Last December we expressed an optimistic view for the fixed-income markets,
and that view has been borne out. Our outlook for the second half of the year
calls for economic growth in the range of 2-2.5% on an annualized basis. While
the Federal Reserve Board has taken an initial step toward loosening the
monetary reins, it does not follow that there will be a series of cuts
parallel to the increases of 1994-95. Rather, we think the Fed will opt to
wait and assess the effects of its first move before undertaking another cut.
In managing the Series, we seek to deliver attractive income with reasonable
risk. With 1994's challenges behind us, we are again very optimistic about the
outlook for bonds. Although past performance does not predict future results,
we believe our record of positive returns in 11 of the last 12 years, plus
strong performance in the first half of 1995, continue to justify your long-
term confidence.

Zenith Salomon Brothers U.S. Government Series
Portfolio Managers: Steven Guterman and Roger Lavan; Salomon Brothers Asset
Management Inc
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MARKET REVIEW
The U.S. fixed income markets staged a dramatic rally during the second
quarter of 1995. Consistently weak economic data forced buyers into the market
and pushed yields on two-year through ten-year benchmarks down by 100 basis
points. The total return for the Series for the six months ended 6/30/95 was
9.44%, versus 9.03% for the same period for the Lehman Brothers Intermediate
Government Bond Index./1/
The Series was well positioned for the rally. The Series began the second
quarter with a duration of 4.5 years and underweighted in callable mortgages.
As the rally ensued, additional strategic underweighting of callable mortgages
proved beneficial as most mortgage products had a difficult time keeping pace
with Treasuries during the rally.
OUTLOOK AND STRATEGY
Looking forward, we remain constructive on the market and believe the Fed
will continue to lower rates, albeit slowly. We expect to keep the duration of
the Series near the upper end of its three-to five-year duration band. In
terms of sector allocation, discount and current coupon mortgages are becoming
increasingly more attractive and it would not be surprising to see a
commitment by the Series back into those areas over the next few months.
Presently, the Series is allocated as follows: 15% cash, 33% Treasuries; 33%
agency debentures, 13% agency mortgage pass-throughs, 6% agency PAC CMOs.

Zenith Back Bay Advisors Money Market Series
Portfolio Manager: J. Scott Nicholson; Back Bay Advisors, L.P.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MARKET REVIEW
From February 1994 through February 1995, the Federal Reserve Board raised
short-term rates seven times in an effort to slow down a rapidly growing
economy and ward off potential inflationary pressures. Throughout 1994 and
into 1995, yields on the Series have risen in response to the Fed's actions.
Indeed, yields have been at their highest level in recent years. However,
during the first six months of the year evidence accumulated that the economy
had slowed dramatically in response to the Fed's monetary policy. The markets
began to anticipate that the Fed would be forced to reduce rates to prevent
the economy from slipping into recession. Then, on July 6, just after the end
of this reporting period, the Fed reversed direction and lowered short-term
rates by a modest 0.25%, signaling a possible change in interest rate policy.
Shareholders in the Series enjoyed relatively high rates throughout the
first half of the year as the effects of the Fed's interest rate hikes worked
their way through the system. At June 30, 1995, the 7-day yield for the Series
stood at 5.67% (compared to 5.34% on December 31, 1994). The 7-day yields for
the Series as of June 30 continue to compare favorably with the average money
market deposit account (MMDA), which was yielding 3.42%. (Source: Wall Street
Journal, 7/6/95)*.
In a period of rising interest rates, money market fund managers will reduce
the average days to maturity of their fund's holdings so that assets can be
quickly rolled over into higher-yielding instruments. During periods of
declining rates, the average maturity of the fund will be extended, in order
to lock in the higher yields for as long as possible. At the end of 1994, we
believed that economic growth would perhaps pause for a short while and then
continue on its upward path, leading to continued interest rate hikes by the
Fed. Accordingly, we had shortened the average maturity of the Series (which
had dipped as low as 27 days at year-end).
In the first few months of 1995, our outlook on the economy began to shift.
As the evidence mounted that the economy was indeed slowing, we thought it
less likely that the Fed would continue raising rates and that it might even
reverse trend. Consequently, we lengthened the average maturity to about 48
days at June 30, 1995 for the Series. At mid-year our outlook is generally
positive, although concerns remain that lower interest rates may spur
excessive growth in the economy later in the year.
OUTLOOK AND STRATEGY
We have probably seen the peak of the current interest rate cycle and we
think that yields will stabilize or edge downward from their June 30 levels.
Of course, this scenario could change if economic numbers in the latter part
of the year point toward resurgent inflation, and we will be looking for signs
of an economic rebound later in the year that would cause the Fed to keep
short rates at current levels for an extended period of time.
No matter the economic climate, however, the Series can form a key part of
an investor's portfolio. We manage the series conservatively, following strict
investment guidelines to seek high current income and stability.

NEW ENGLAND VARIABLE LIFE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
OF
NEW ENGLAND VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. New England Variable Life Separate Account (the "Account") of New England
Variable Life Insurance Company ("NEVLICO"), was established by NEVLICO's
Board of Directors on January 31, 1983 in accordance with the regulations of
the Delaware Insurance Department. NEVLICO is a wholly-owned subsidiary of New
England Mutual Life Insurance Company ("The New England"). The Account is
registered as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of
1940. The assets of the Account are owned by NEVLICO. However, that portion of
the Account assets equal to the reserves and other liabilities of the Account
may not be charged with liabilities that arise out of any other business
NEVLICO may conduct.
2. The Account has sixteen investment sub-accounts each of which invests in
the shares of one portfolio of the New England Zenith Fund ("Zenith Fund"),
the Variable Insurance Products Fund or the Variable Insurance Products Fund
II. The portfolios of the Zenith Fund, the Variable Insurance Products Fund
and Variable Insurance Products Fund II in which the sub-accounts invest are
referred to herein as the "Eligible Funds". The Zenith Fund, the Variable
Insurance Products Fund and the Variable Insurance Products Fund II are
diversified, open-end management investment companies. The Account purchases
or redeems shares of the sixteen Eligible Funds based on the amount of net
premiums invested in the Account, transfers among the sub-accounts, policy
loans, surrender payments, and death benefit payments. The values of the
shares of the Eligible Funds are determined as of the close of the New York
Stock Exchange (normally 4:00 p.m. Boston time) on each day the Exchange is
open for trading. Realized gains and losses on the sale of the Eligible Funds'
shares are computed on the basis of identified cost on the trade date. Income
from dividends is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
3. Certain deductions are made from each premium payment paid to NEVLICO to
arrive at a net premium that is transferred to the Account, and certain
deductions are made from the variable life insurance policies' cash value.
These deductions include sales load, administrative expenses, a risk charge,
state premium taxes and the cost of providing insurance protection. Charges
for investment advisory fees and other expenses are deducted from the assets
of the Eligible Funds.
NEVLICO charges the Account for mortality and expense risks NEVLICO assumes.
Currently, the charges are made daily at an effective annual rate of .35% of
the Account assets attributable to fixed premium variable life policies, .45%
of the Account assets attributable to single premium variable life policies,
.60% of the Account assets attributable to variable ordinary life policies and
limited payment variable life policies, and .90% of the Account assets
attributable to variable survivorship life policies.
4. For federal income tax purposes the Account's operations are included with
those of NEVLICO. NEVLICO intends to make appropriate charges against the
Account in the future if and when tax liabilities arise.
5. The adviser and sub-adviser for each series of the Zenith Fund are listed
in the chart below. TNE Advisers, which is a subsidiary of The New England,
and each of the sub-advisers are registered with the SEC as investment
advisers under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. New England Zenith Fund (the "Fund") is organized as a Massachusetts
business trust under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts pursuant to
an Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated December 16, 1986. The Fund
succeeded to the operations of The New England Zenith Fund, Inc. on February
27, 1987. The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, as a diversified, open-end management investment company.
Shares in the Fund are not offered directly to the general public and,
currently, are available only to separate accounts established by New England
Variable Life Insurance Company ("NEVLICO"), New England Mutual Life Insurance
Company ("The New England") or its subsidiaries as an investment vehicle for
variable life insurance or variable annuity products, although not all Series
may be available to all separate accounts. In the future, however, such shares
may be offered to separate accounts of insurance companies unaffiliated with
NEVLICO or The New England.
The Fund's Agreement and Declaration of Trust permits the issuance of an
unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, no par value, in separate
Series, with shares of each Series representing interests in a separate
portfolio of assets. Each Series is separately managed and has its own
investment objective and policies. The Fund (or its predecessor) began
offering shares of the Series on the dates set forth below:

</TABLE>
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Fund in the preparation of the Financial Statements of the Series. The
policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles for
investment companies.
A. SECURITY VALUATION
MONEY MARKET SERIES--The Money Market Series employs the amortized cost
method of security valuation which, in the opinion of the Board of
Trustees, represents the fair market value of the particular security. The
Board monitors the deviations between the Series' net asset value per
share, as determined by using available market quotations, and its
amortized cost price per share. If the deviation exceeds 1/2 of 1%, the
board will consider what action, if any, should be initiated to provide
fair valuation of the Series.
BOND INCOME, MANAGED, BALANCED, U.S. GOVERNMENT AND STRATEGIC BOND
OPPORTUNITIES SERIES--Debt securities (other than short-term obligations)
are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a pricing service,
authorized by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations
for normal, institutional-size trading units of such securities using
market information, transactions for comparable securities and various
relationships between securities which are generally recognized by
institutional traders. Short-term notes are stated at amortized cost which
approximates market value.
CAPITAL GROWTH, MANAGED, STOCK INDEX, AVANTI GROWTH, VALUE GROWTH, SMALL
CAP, BALANCED, INTERNATIONAL EQUITY, VENTURE VALUE AND EQUITY GROWTH
SERIES--Equity securities are valued on the basis of market valuations
furnished by a pricing service, authorized by the Board of
125
<PAGE>
New England Zenith Fund
Notes to Financial Statements-June 30, 1995 (Unaudited)-Continued
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Trustees. The pricing service provides the last reported sale price for
securities listed on a national securities exchange or on the NASDAQ
National Market System, or if there is no reported sale during the day, and
in the case of over-the-counter securities not so listed, the last bid
price. Securities for which current market quotations are not readily
available are taken at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board
of Trustees, although the actual calculations may be made by persons acting
pursuant to the direction of the Board. Short-term notes are stated at
amortized cost which approximates market value.
B. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION--The books and records of the funds are
maintained in U.S. dollars. The value of securities, currencies and other
assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars
are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates
prevailing at the end of the period. Purchases and sales of investment
securities, income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of
such transactions.
Since the values of investment securities are presented at the foreign
exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period, it is not practical to
isolate that portion of the results of operations arising from changes in
exchange rates from fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of
the investment securities.
Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency
transactions represent foreign exchange gains from the sale of short-term
securities and holdings of foreign currencies, foreign currency gains and
losses between trade dates and settlement dates on investment securities
transactions, and the difference between the amounts of daily interest
accruals on the books of the fund and the amounts actually received
resulting from changes in exchange rates on the payable date.
C. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INVESTMENT INCOME--Security transactions
are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or sell is
executed). Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest
income is recorded on the accrual basis. In determining gain or loss on
securities sold, the cost of securities has been determined on the
identified cost basis.
D. FUTURES CONTRACTS--The Value Growth, Stock Index, Managed, Balanced,
International Equity, U.S. Government, Strategic Bond Opportunities and
Venture Value Series may enter into futures contracts on the S&P 500 Index
or on interest-bearing securities or indices thereof, or on indices of
stock prices to hedge against changes in the values of securities the
Series owns or expects to purchase. Upon entering into a futures contract,
the Series is required to deposit with a broker an amount ("initial
margin") equal to a certain percentage of the purchase price indicated in
the futures contract. Subsequent payments ("variation margin") are made or
received by the Series each day, dependent on the daily fluctuations in the
value of the underlying security, and are recorded for financial reporting
purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the Series. When entering into a
closing transaction, the Series will realize, for book purposes, a gain or
loss equal to the difference between the value of the futures contract to
sell and the futures contract to buy. Futures contracts are valued at the
most recent settlement price, unless such price does not reflect the fair
market value of the contract, in which case the position will be valued by
or under the direction of the Trustees. Certain risks may arise upon
entering into futures contracts from the contingency of imperfect market
conditions. The potential risk to the fund is that the change in value of
futures contracts primarily corresponds with the value of underlying
instruments which may not correspond to the change in the value of the
hedged instruments. In addition, there is a risk that the fund may not be
able to close out its futures positions due to an illiquid secondary
market.

Notes to Financial Statements-June 30, 1995 (Unaudited)-Continued
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
E. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS--The Series, through their custodian, receive
delivery of the underlying securities collateralizing repurchase
agreements. It is the Series' policy that the market value of the
collateral be at least equal to 100% of the repurchase price. The adviser
is responsible for determining that the value of the collateral is at all
times at least equal to the repurchase price. In connection with
transactions in repurchase agreements, if the seller defaults and the value
of the collateral declines or if the seller enters an insolvency
proceeding, realization of the collateral by the Series may be delayed or
limited.
F. SHORT SALES AGAINST THE BOX--The Equity Growth Series may hedge the
investments against changes in value by engaging in short sales against the
box. In a short sale against the box, the fund sells a borrowed security,
while at the same time either owning an identical security or having the
right to obtain such a security. By selling short against the box the
equity underlying one of its convertible holdings, the fund would seek to
offset the effect that a decline in the underlying equity might have on the
value of the convertible security. While the short sale is outstanding, the
fund will not dispose of the security hedged by the short sale. The fund is
required to establish a margin account with the broker lending the security
sold short. While the short sale is outstanding, the broker retains the
proceeds of the short sale and the fund instructs the custodian to maintain
in a separate account securities having a value at least equal to the
amount of the securities sold short.
G. FEDERAL TAXES--Each Series, which is a separate taxable entity, intends to
meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated
investment companies and to distribute to its shareholders all of its
taxable income and any net realized capital gains at least annually.
Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax has been made.
H. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS--Money Market Series dividends
are declared daily to shareholders of record at the time and are paid
monthly. Dividends and distributions are recorded by all other Series on
the ex-dividend date. Net realized gains from security transactions are
distributed at least annually to shareholders. The timing and
characterization of certain income and capital gains distributions are
determined in accordance with federal tax regulations which may differ from
generally accepted accounting principles. Permanent book and tax basis
differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in
reclassification to paid in capital.
I. OTHER--The Money Market Series invests primarily in a portfolio of money
market instruments maturing in 397 days or less whose ratings are within
the two highest ratings categories by a nationally recognized rating agency
or, if not rated, are believed to be of comparable quality. The weighted
average maturity of the Series is less than ninety days. The ability of the
issuers of the securities held by the Series to meet their obligations may
be affected by foreign economic, political and legal developments in the
case of foreign banks or of foreign branches or subsidiaries of U.S. banks
or domestic economic developments in a specific industry, state or region.
2. At June 30, 1995, The New England owned an aggregate of 9 shares of the
fourteen Series and held 9,139,881 shares in separate investment accounts for
annuity contracts offered by The New England Variable Account, a separate
account of The New England. NEVLICO, a life insurance subsidiary of The New
England, held the remaining 2,628,476 shares then outstanding in separate
investment accounts for life insurance and annuity contracts offered by
NEVLICO.

As long as The New England owns (directly or through NEVLICO) more than 25% of
the Fund's outstanding shares, it will be presumed to be in control (as that
term is defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of the
Fund.

(excluding short-term investments) for each of the Series were as follows:

VARIABLE INSURANCE PRODUCTS FUND: MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
PERFORMANCE
To measure a money market fund's performance, you can look at either total
return or yield. Total return reflects both the change
in a fund's share price over a given period, and reinvestment of its
dividends (or income). Yield measures the income paid by a fund. Since a
money market fund tries to maintain a $1 share price, yield is an important
measure of performance.
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED PAST 1 PAST 5 PAST 10
JUNE 30, 1995 YEAR YEARS YEARS
Money Market 5.44% 4.88% 6.19%
Consumer Price Index 3.04% 3.26% 3.55%
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS take the fund's actual (or cumulative) return
and show you what would have happened if the fund had achieved that return
by performing at a constant rate each year.
Comparing the fund's performance to the Consumer Price Index (CPI) helps
show how your investment did compared to inflation. (The periods covered by
the CPI numbers are the closest available match to those covered by the
fund.)
PERFORMANCE NUMBERS ARE NET OF ALL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES, BUT DO NOT
INCLUDE ANY INSURANCE CHARGES IMPOSED BY YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY'S SEPARATE
ACCOUNT. IF PERFORMANCE INFORMATION INCLUDED THE EFFECT OF THESE ADDITIONAL
CHARGES, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN LOWER.
If the advisor had not reimbursed certain fund expenses, the past five
years and life of fund total returns would have been lower. Yield
will vary.

YIELD refers to the income paid by the fund over a given period. Yields for
money market funds are usually for seven-day periods,
expressed as annual percentage rates. A yield that assumes income earned is
reinvested or compounded is called an effective yield. The chart above
shows the fund's current seven-day yield at quarterly intervals over the
past year. This is compared to similar yields for the average bank money
market deposit account (MMDA). The MMDA average is supplied by BANK RATE
MONITOR.(Trademark)
COMPARING PERFORMANCE
There are some important differences between
a bank money market deposit account (MMDA)
and a money market fund. First, the U.S.
government neither insures nor guarantees a
money market fund. In fact, there is no
assurance that a money fund will maintain a $1
share price. Second, a money market fund
returns to its shareholders income earned by the
fund's investments after expenses. This is in
contrast to banks, which set their MMDA rates
periodically based on current interest rates,
competitors' rates, and internal criteria.

VARIABLE INSURANCE PRODUCTS FUND: MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with
Bob Litterst, Portfolio
Manager of Money
Market Portfolio
Q. BOB, CAN YOU BRING US UP TO DATE ON MARKET CONDITIONS?
A. Sure. The economic growth rate has slowed dramatically during the past
six months. During the fourth quarter of 1994, the gross domestic product
expanded at a rate of 5.1%, a very strong showing. Moreover, final sales
rose 5.7%, meaning sales exceeded production and depleted inventories.
Those signs of growth, along with disturbing trends in such leading
indicators of inflation as unemployment and capacity utilization, prompted
the Federal Reserve to raise the federal funds rate, the rate banks charge
each other for overnight loans, another one-half percentage point in
February.
Q. HOW HAS THE INTEREST RATE ENVIRONMENT CHANGED SINCE THEN?
A. Even as the Fed was tightening credit for the seventh time in a little
more than a year, there were signs that the economy was beginning to lose
steam. Led by softening consumer activity and weakness in
interest-sensitive sectors such as housing and autos, the growth rate
during the first quarter of 1995 slowed to 2.7%. Currently, most economists
have long since stopped worrying about the economy overheating. Now they
have an altogether different concern: that we might be headed for another
recession. By the end of June, it was clear to all that the latest cycle of
interest rate increases was over. Instead, speculation centered on when the
Fed might feel compelled to lower rates.
Q. HOW DID YOU RESPOND TO CHANGING CONDITIONS?
A. The fund's average maturity six months ago, when the period began, was
39 days. That was a defensive number. It reflected my view at the time that
further rate increases were likely. As it became apparent that the economy
was slowing more rapidly than initially expected, my expectations regarding
Fed policy changed, and I gradually extended the fund's average maturity. I
moved cautiously at first because conditions were unsettled and it seemed
prudent to maintain flexibility. But as signs of weakness accumulated, I
began to prepare for a shift in Fed policy, including the possibility of an
eventual rate cut. By the end of June, the fund's average maturity was more
aggressive than that of most other taxable money market funds-around 60
days, compared to about 50 days for most competitors.
Q. HOW DID YOU ACHIEVE THAT LONGER AVERAGE MATURITY?
A. Mainly by focusing on three-month and six-month securities, rather than
moving further out the yield curve. That's because by the end of the
period, expectations for declining short-term rates caused longer-term
yields on some money market securities to fall below shorter-term yields, a
situation known as an inverted yield curve.
Q. WHAT ABOUT ASSET SELECTION?
A. I've reduced the fund's stake in U.S. Treasury and agency securities.
Normally the fund averages about 10% in government securities, although
it's been as high as 20% at times during the past year or two. But in
recent months, technical factors affecting supply and demand have priced
government securities unusually high. The main cause seems to be heavy
buying on the part of foreign central banks with funds accumulated in
support of the U.S. dollar. With so many other creditworthy alternatives
available, I've looked elsewhere for value, adding higher-yielding
commercial paper and bank certificates of deposit. At the end of June,
government securities totaled less than 3% of the fund's assets.
Q. WHAT'S THE OUTLOOK?
A. The next few months should be interesting. We know that on July 6,
shortly after the period ended, the Fed lowered the federal funds rate
one-quarter percentage point, but as we look ahead, much uncertainty
remains. Some market participants believe that we're in the early stages of
an extended downturn. Others believe that what's happening is merely a
brief but severe inventory correction, and that the economy will resume
growing at its long-term trend rate of around 2.5% once the temporary
buildup in inventories sells off.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR VIEW?
A. I tend to side with those in the latter camp. The typical prerequisites
for a recession, including high inflation and tight bank lending standards,
simply don't exist. That said, I'm concerned that if this Spring's weakness
in the labor market persists, it could evolve into a self-reinforcing
slowdown, forcing the Fed to continue lowering rates. While I don't think
that will happen, I have to respect the possibility of such a development.
Accordingly, I'll probably maintain a neutral to aggressive average
maturity of between 60 and 65 days for the foreseeable future.

VARIABLE INSURANCE PRODUCTS FUND: HIGH INCOME PORTFOLIO
PERFORMANCE AND INVESTMENT SUMMARY
PERFORMANCE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance: total
percentage change in value, the average annual percentage change, or the
growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Each performance figure
includes changes in a fund's share price, plus reinvestment of any
dividends (income) and capital gains (the profits the fund earns when it
sells stocks that have grown in value).
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED PAST 1 PAST 5 LIFE OF
JUNE 30, 1995 YEAR YEARS FUND
HIGH INCOME 11.89% 16.87% 11.60%
Merrill Lynch High Yield Master 14.88% 14.23% n/a
Consumer Price Index 3.04% 3.26% 3.57%
AVERAGE ANNUAL RETURNS take the fund's actual (or cumulative) return and
show you what would have happened if the fund had performed at a constant
rate each year.
UNDERSTANDING PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of
how it will do tomorrow. Bond prices, for
example, generally move in the opposite
direction of interest rates. In turn, the share price,
return, and yield of a fund that invests in bonds
will vary. That means if you sell your shares
during a market downturn, you might lose
money. But if you can ride out the market's ups
and downs, you may have a gain.
(checkmark)
You can compare the fund's returns to those of the Merrill Lynch High Yield
Master Index - a broad measure of the high yield bond market. This
benchmark includes reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any.
Comparing the fund's performance to the consumer price index (CPI) helps
show how your fund did compared to inflation. (The CPI returns begin on the
month end closest to the fund's start date).
Figures for more than one year assume a steady compounded rate of return
and are not the fund's year-by-year results, which fluctuated over the
periods shown. The life of fund figures are from commencement of
operations, September 19, 1985.
If the adviser had not reimbursed certain fund expenses during the periods
shown, the total returns would have been lower.
PERFORMANCE NUMBERS ARE NET OF ALL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES, BUT DO NOT
INCLUDE ANY INSURANCE CHARGES IMPOSED BY YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY'S SEPARATE
ACCOUNT. IF PERFORMANCE INFORMATION INCLUDED THE EFFECT OF THESE ADDITIONAL
CHARGES, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN LOWER.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Principal and
investment return will vary and you may have a gain or loss when you
withdraw your money. The fund includes high yielding, lower-rated
securities which are subject to greater price volatility and may involve
greater risk of default. The market for these securities may be less
liquid.

Let's say you invested $10,000 in High Income Portfolio on September 30,
1985, shortly after the fund started. By June 30, 1995, your investment
would have grown to $29,206 - a 192.06% increase. That compares to $10,000
invested in the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master Index, which would have
grown to $30,339 over the same period - a 203.39% increase.

VARIABLE INSURANCE PRODUCTS FUND: HIGH INCOME PORTFOLIO
FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with Barry Coffman, Portfolio Manager of High Income Portfolio
Q. HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED, BARRY?
A. Although the fund did well relative to its peers, it trailed the
performance of the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master Index, which returned
12.76% and 14.88%, respectively, for the six and 12-month periods ended
June 30, 1995. The index has a larger percentage of Ba-rated bonds than
most high-yield mutual funds, which tend to be more concentrated in B-rated
bonds. Generally speaking, Ba-rated bonds are more sensitive to changing
interest rates, and therefore, benefited more from the recent decline in
interest rates than B-rated bonds. As a result, very few high yield funds
outperformed the index.
Q. WHAT FACTORS CONTRIBUTED TO THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE?
A. The fund's relatively low weighting in Ba-rated securities was the
primary reason for its underperformance relative to its benchmark during
the most recent period. On the positive side, we have maintained a high
weighting, compared to the benchmark, in deferred coupon securities. These
bonds sell at a deep discount because they do not pay current interest for
some period, usually three to five years. They generally have longer
durations - which measures how sensitive their price is to changes in
interest rates - and therefore, their prices are more volatile. We also
avoided most of the credit disasters that occurred in the market.
Q. WHAT INVESTMENTS HAVE DONE WELL IN THE PAST SIX MONTHS?
A. Revlon continued to benefit from an operational restructuring and the
very successful launch of two key new products: Color Stay Lipstick and Age
Defying Makeup. Our Revlon position is concentrated in the most junior
securities that are most sensitive to changes in credit quality, which has
been a recent plus. Another strong performer was Big Flower Press, a large
commercial printer of advertising inserts, comics and television guides.
The company was helped by the strong growth in advertising and the
synergies it gained from some recent acquisitions. Finally, our
concentration in casinos and hotels did relatively well during the period.
Q. GIVEN THE MARKET'S STRENGTH SO FAR IN 1995, WAS IT DIFFICULT TO FIND
OPPORTUNITIES?
A. Not particularly. The new issues market was active and provided ample
opportunity to selectively add new names to the fund. One example was
PanAmSat Corp., which operates an international satellite communications
system and provides satellite services to the broadcasting and business
communications markets. It currently has two satellites operating and also
has a large backlog of contracted time from companies including ESPN and
Viacom for two new satellites it will be launching later this year. The
company is participating in a joint venture to provide Direct to Home (DTH)
television broadcasting service to Latin America, similar to the Direct TV
service in the United States. Another new issue we purchased was
Stratosphere Corp., a Las Vegas-based casino owned by industry-leader Grand
Casino. These bonds are attractive, in part, because in addition to their
14.25% coupon, they pay additional interest based on a percentage of the
company's cash flow.
Q. WHAT INVESTMENTS DIDN'T FARE AS WELL?
A. The high-yield restaurant sector, in general, did not perform well
during the period due to competitive pressures and a slowing economy. One
of our largest holdings is Flagstar, the parent of Denny's and the largest
franchisee of Hardees. Although Denny's has benefited from an aggressive
remodeling program, Hardees has suffered due to aggressive price promotions
from the major burger chains. Another restaurant chain, American Restaurant
Group, also underperformed partly due to the concentration of its chains in
California, where the economy continues to be weaker than the rest of the
country.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE NEXT SIX MONTHS?
A. The probability of the soft landing scenario is increasing, which could
provide a favorable backdrop for the high-yield bond market. Slow economic
growth and low inflation could allow many companies in the high-yield
market to improve their credit quality. Absolute yields remain attractive,
and absent a sharp drop in interest rates from current levels, high-yield
bonds could perform well relative to other fixed-income investments. In my
view, the key is to be selective. I'm focusing on companies that are less
cyclical, or sensitive to the economy, and choosing companies that I think
can perform well in a slow-growth environment.

PERFORMANCE AND INVESTMENT SUMMARY
PERFORMANCE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance: total
percentage change in value, the average annual percentage change, or the
growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Each performance figure
includes changes in a fund's share price, plus reinvestment of any
dividends (income) and capital gains (the profits the fund earns when it
sells stocks that have grown in value).
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED PAST 1 PAST 5 LIFE OF
JUNE 30, 1995 YEAR YEARS FUND
Equity-Income 24.00% 15.06% 12.30%
S&P 500 26.07% 12.09% 13.58%
AVERAGE ANNUAL RETURNS take the fund's actual (or cumulative) return and
show you what would have happened if the fund had performed at a constant
rate each year.
UNDERSTANDING PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how
it will do tomorrow. The stock market, for
example, has a history of growth in the long run
and volatility in the short run. In turn, the share
price and return of a fund that invests in stocks
will vary. That means if you sell your shares
during a market downturn, you might lose
money. But if you can ride out the market's ups
and downs, you may have a gain.
(checkmark)
You can compare these figures to the performance of the Standard & Poor's
Composite Index of 500 stocks - a common proxy for the U.S. stock market.
This benchmark includes reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any.
Figures for more than one year assume a steady compounded rate of return
and are not the fund's year-by-year results, which fluctuated over the
periods shown. The life of fund figures are from commencement of
operations, October 9, 1986.
PERFORMANCE NUMBERS ARE NET OF ALL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES, BUT DO NOT
INCLUDE ANY INSURANCE CHARGES IMPOSED BY YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY'S SEPARATE
ACCOUNT. IF PERFORMANCE INFORMATION INCLUDED THE EFFECT OF THESE ADDITIONAL
CHARGES, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN LOWER.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Principal and
investment return will vary and you may have a gain or loss when you
withdraw your money.

Let's say you invested $10,000 in Equity-Income Portfolio on October 9,
1986, when the fund started. By June 30, 1995, your investment would have
grown to $27,545 - a 175.45% increase. That compares to $10,000 invested in
the S&P 500, which would have grown to $30,408 over the same period - a
204.08% increase.

VARIABLE INSURANCE PRODUCTS FUND: EQUITY-INCOME PORTFOLIO
FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with Bettina Doulton, Portfolio Manager of Equity-Income
Portfolio
Q. BETTINA, HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
A. Although the fund did well relative to its peers, it slightly trailed
the performance of the Standard & Poor's 500 stock index for the six- and
12-month periods ended June 30, 1995. The index had total returns of 20.21%
and 26.07% for those periods, respectively. Because this recent stock
market rally was quite narrow - led by a few sectors, namely technology,
financials and the large-cap and blue-chip stocks - the average stock
mutual fund has not topped the performance of the index thus far in 1995.
Q. THE STOCK MARKET SHOWED A RENEWED VIGOR OVER THE PAST SIX MONTHS. WHAT
ACCOUNTED FOR THIS?
A. The market's strength was driven by investors' belief that the Federal
Reserve Board would manage the economy to a soft landing - steady, albeit
slower, economic growth and continued low inflation. If achieved, those
conditions are ideal for Corporate America to sustain strong profit growth.
During the six-month period, corporate earnings reports were excellent,
which provided the fuel for stock prices to move higher. Excluding the
consistently outstanding performance of the technology and financial
sectors, the market has been characterized by rapid industry rotation.
Investors have spent the past six months racing from one industry to the
next, trying to stay one step ahead of the crowd. Sometimes, the fund was
in the right place at the right time, and sometimes it wasn't.
Q. WHAT CONTRIBUTED TO THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE?
A. Several of the fund's largest holdings have driven returns recently.
Highlights include Philip Morris. The stock has been rewarded for the
company's strong profit growth and free cash flow; both are attributable to
terrific results in the company's domestic and international tobacco
businesses, which more than offset mediocre results in its food division.
Second in line is the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae).
Although its stock price suffered a significant setback last fall, it has
since recovered as conditions in the secondary mortgage market have turned
more favorable. IBM was another strong performer. The company has done an
excellent job cutting costs and cleaning up its balance sheet. In addition,
global economic growth and wide acceptance of the company's new products
have contributed to accelerating revenue growth. Finally, in the energy
sector, the energy service company Schlumberger performed well. It
benefited from improving worldwide supply/demand dynamics for oil and
corporate restructuring efforts. Elsewhere in the energy sector, however,
British Petroleum (BP) and Amerada Hess have been somewhat disappointing in
terms of stock performance. Both are restructuring stories; BP's stock may
just be taking a breather after making significant gains, while Amerada
Hess' turnaround may be just taking a bit longer than investors had
expected.
Q. YOU MORE THAN DOUBLED THE FUND'S STAKE IN FINANCIAL STOCKS; THEY WENT
FROM 7.1% OF THE FUND SIX MONTHS AGO TO 18.0% ON JUNE 30 . . .
A. Recent purchases of bank stocks made up most of that increase. Along
with the diversified financial services companies such as American Express
and Fannie Mae, banks had a strong, if volatile, run. My only regret is not
owning more of them early in the period, when they began to outperform.
Prices did fall in the spring, however, which allowed me to buy stocks such
as Chemical Banking and BankAmerica off their highs. In the coming months,
I expect the market to drive bank stock valuations - prices relative to
earnings - higher. That's because earnings are becoming more consistent,
the industry is consolidating, and companies are using excess capital to
repurchase shares of their own stocks.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE NEXT SIX MONTHS?
A. When interest rates fall, as they've done over the past few months, the
market usually rewards stocks with higher valuations. However, we have to
keep in mind that the economy has slowed, which could negatively affect
corporate earnings going forward. The 64-thousand-dollar question then
becomes: will the market's willingness to drive up valuations and look
toward an economic resurgence be enough to offset the negative effects of
potential short-term earnings disappointments? I'm afraid not. Companies
that report less-than-expected earnings growth in the coming months will
most likely pay dearly with falling stock prices. In light of this, I plan
to focus intensely on owning companies that trade at attractive valuations,
offer good prospects for higher earnings through 1996, and are working to
enhance shareholder value.

PERFORMANCE AND INVESTMENT SUMMARY
PERFORMANCE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance: total
percentage change in value, the average annual percentage change, or the
growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Each performance figure
includes changes in a fund's share price, plus reinvestment of any
dividends (income) and capital gains (the profits the fund earns when it
sells stocks that have grown in value).
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED PAST 1 PAST 5 LIFE OF
JUNE 30, 1995 YEAR YEARS FUND
Growth 36.97% 14.84% 14.56%
S&P 500 26.07% 12.09% 13.58%
AVERAGE ANNUAL RETURNS take the fund's actual (or cumulative) return and
show you what would have happened if the fund had performed at a constant
rate each year.
UNDERSTANDING PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how
it will do tomorrow. The stock market, for
example, has a history of growth in the long run
and volatility in the short run. In turn, the share
price and return of a fund that invests in stocks
will vary. That means if you sell your shares
during a market downturn, you might lose
money. But if you can ride out the market's ups
and downs, you may have a gain.
(checkmark)
You can compare these figures to the performance of the Standard & Poor's
Composite Index of 500 Stocks- a common proxy for the U.S. stock market.
This benchmark includes reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any, and
excludes the effects of sales charges.
Figures for more than one year assume a steady compounded rate of return
and are not the fund's year-by-year results, which fluctuated over the
periods shown. The life of fund figures are from commencement of
operations, October 9, 1986.
PERFORMANCE NUMBERS ARE NET OF ALL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES, BUT DO NOT
INCLUDE ANY INSURANCE CHARGES IMPOSED BY YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY'S SEPARATE
ACCOUNT. IF PERFORMANCE INFORMATION INCLUDED THE EFFECT OF THESE ADDITIONAL
CHARGES, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN LOWER.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Principal and
investment return will vary and you may have a gain or loss when you
withdraw your money.

Let's say you invested $10,000 in Growth Portfolio on October 9, 1986, when
the fund started. By June 30, 1995, your investment would have grown to
$32,782 - a 227.82% increase. That compares to $10,000 invested in the S&P
500, which would have grown to $30,408 over the same period - a 204.08%
increase.

VARIABLE INSURANCE PRODUCTS FUND: GROWTH PORTFOLIO
FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with Lawrence Greenberg, Portfolio
Manager of Growth Portfolio
Q. LARRY, HOW HAS THE FUND DONE OVER THE PAST SIX MONTHS?
A. Quite well. From December 31, 1994, through June 30, 1995, the fund beat
the Standard & Poor's 500 index, which returned 20.21%.
Q. WHAT MADE THE DIFFERENCE?
A. In the second half of 1994, growth stocks began outperforming cyclicals
- stocks in sectors like autos and steel that tend to rise or fall with the
economy. Since then, the economy has slowed and interest rates have been
flat or falling - a perfect environment for growth stocks. My strategy was
to concentrate on those companies with the fastest earnings growth
opportunities for `95 and `96. This aggressive position, especially in
technology, paid off handsomely when growth stocks rebounded.
Q. IN FACT, OVER 50% OF THE FUND WAS IN TECHNOLOGY AT THE END OF JUNE. WHY
SUCH A HUGE BET?
A. Because on a stock-by-stock basis that's where I'm still finding what I
believe are the best growth opportunities. Technology stocks are benefiting
from strong corporate and consumer demand. Business is booming across all
segments - from PCs and software to semiconductors and networking. Plus,
unlike a retailer, which can only grow as fast as it can build bricks and
mortar, a technology company can grow at any rate. The fund has dozens of
companies that are growing sales well over 100% per year. Finally, despite
the fastest sales and earnings growth of any stocks in the market, many of
these companies still have attractive prices compared to other measures
like earnings.
Q. WHERE DID YOU FIND THE BEST OPPORTUNITIES?
A. Across the board. I added new technology names, but I also made bigger
investments in the companies I have the most confidence in. For example, I
significantly boosted the fund's stake in both Intel, which makes
microprocessors like the Pentium chip that are the brains of PCs, and
Micron Technology, one of the few manufacturers of memory chips called
DRAMs that go inside PCs and other electronic equipment. Both stocks posted
sizable gains for the period. I also added to our stake in Applied
Materials, the leading supplier of semiconductor manufacturing equipment,
whose sales grew more than 60% this year. Our biggest investment is still
Oracle, the leading provider of software for client-server set-ups; it
continued to benefit as more companies moved away from mainframes toward
PCs linked through networks.
Q. WERE THERE DISAPPOINTMENTS?
A. Sure. The stock price of Sybase, a competitor to Oracle, fell nearly 50%
in the last six months as it ran into problems launching a new product. One
of our biggest positions six months ago was Motorola; it started having
some near-term problems related to oversupply on its cellular handsets, so
I cut back even though the stock's long-term outlook remained attractive.
Finally, some retailers like Home Depot and Lowe's turned in disappointing
short-term results as heavy rains in California and the Southeast hurt
business. But many of the "hard good category killers" (or superstores) I
focused on continued to grow despite the slowdown in overall retail sales
that we saw this spring.
Q. WHY DID YOU CUT BACK IN HEALTH CARE?
A. The fund's health care stake was around 3% at the end of June, down from
7.7% six months earlier. During the first half of 1994, uncertainty
surrounding President Clinton's plans for health care reform had hurt the
sector. Then, last fall, the stocks rallied as it became apparent that
health care legislation wouldn't pass anytime soon. But once the
Republicans took charge in January, they cast another cloud over the sector
as they promised to re-examine programs like Medicare. So I decided to
watch from the sidelines.
Q. LOOKING AHEAD, WHAT SHOULD SHAREHOLDERS EXPECT?
A. In the past, technology stocks haven't done as well over the summer, as
European demand dries up and new product launches disappear. But this year,
since demand has been so strong, we may see no summer slowdown or one
that's much less pronounced. Nevertheless, shareholders should expect
volatility because the fund is aggressively invested in the fastest-growing
companies. If either the technology sector or the market declines, the fund
will suffer more than other stock funds. But it's also in a good position
to benefit more than its peers from a long-term up market, which I believe
is more likely.

PERFORMANCE AND INVESTMENT SUMMARY
PERFORMANCE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance: total
percentage change in value, the average annual percentage change, or the
growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Each performance figure
includes changes in a fund's share price, plus reinvestment of any
dividends (income) and capital gains (the profits the fund earns when it
sells stocks that have grown in value).
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED PAST 1 PAST 5 LIFE OF
JUNE 30, 1995 YEAR YEARS FUND
OVERSEAS 2.96% 4.76% 7.12%
Morgan Stanley EAFE Index 1.65% 4.69% 6.97%
AVERAGE ANNUAL RETURNS take the fund's actual (or cumulative) return and
show you what would have happened if the fund had performed at a constant
rate each year.
UNDERSTANDING PERFORMANCE
Many markets around the globe offer the potential
for significant growth over time; however,
investing in foreign markets means assuming
greater risks than investing in the United States.
Factors like changes in a country's financial
markets, its local political and economic
climate, and the fluctuating value of its currency
create these risks. For these reasons an
international fund's performance may be more
volatile than a fund that invests exclusively in the
United States.
(checkmark)
You can compare the fund's figures to the performance of the Morgan Stanley
EAFE index - a broad measure of the performance of stocks in Europe,
Australia, and the Far East. This benchmark includes reinvested dividends
and capital gains, if any, and excludes the effects of sales charges.
Figures for more than one year assume a steady compounded rate of return
and are not the fund's year-by-year results, which fluctuated over the
periods shown. The life of fund figures are from commencement of operations
January 28, 1987.
PERFORMANCE NUMBERS ARE NET OF ALL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES, BUT DO NOT
INCLUDE ANY INSURANCE CHARGES IMPOSED BY YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY'S SEPARATE
ACCOUNT. IF PERFORMANCE INFORMATION INCLUDED THE EFFECT OF THESE ADDITIONAL
CHARGES, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN LOWER.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Principal and
investment return will vary and you may have a gain or loss when you
withdraw your money. Foreign investments involve greater risks and
potential rewards than U.S. investments. These risks include political and
economic uncertainties of foreign countries, as well as the risk of
currency fluctuations.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with John Hickling, Portfolio Manager of Overseas Portfolio
Q. JOHN, HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED?
A. For the six months and one year ended June 30, 1995, the fund's
performance topped that of the Morgan Stanley EAFE index - a broad measure
of stocks in Europe, Australia and the Far East. The index had total
returns of 2.60% and 1.65% for the six- and 12-month periods, respectively.
Q. WHAT WERE THE KEYS TO THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE OVER THE PAST SIX MONTHS?
A. First, I kept the fund fully invested through much of the period.
Second, some of the stocks I picked in Japan and Europe fared well. And
finally, the fund was able to benefit from new investments in emerging
markets.
Q. WHY DID THE EAFE INDEX OFFER RELATIVELY LOW RETURNS?
A. While European markets have performed relatively well - though not as
well as the U.S. market - emerging markets and Japan have not. Japan was
affected by a number of factors that dampened investor enthusiasm: the
Barings debacle, the Kobe earthquake and the subway gas attack. The
Japanese market also was hurt by the strength of the yen versus the dollar.
On the heels of Mexico's devaluation of the peso in late 1994, emerging
markets also struggled, although they appear to have pretty much bottomed
out.
Q. WHAT'S THE STORY BEHIND THE FUND'S INVESTMENTS IN JAPAN?
A. Even though Japan has the highest country representation in the fund,
I've kept the fund underweighted there, relative to the index. I've focused
much of the fund's Japanese investments in technology, including consumer
electronics companies Toshiba and Hitachi, and other manufacturers and
exporters that are poised to take advantage of economic activity both in
Japan and globally. While the technology sector has done well in the U.S.,
it has been weak in Japan, so I found valuations to be attractive. The
sector recently has shown some strong gains. In addition, I've targeted
some financial stocks. The Japanese market has started to pick up a bit
lately, and brokerage house Nomura Securities is poised to take advantage
because it has been cutting costs aggressively. In addition, it appears
trust banks such as Sumitomo Trust will be able to improve interest margins
- the difference between what they charge for loans and what they pay to
depositors - because of changing regulations.
Q. THE FUND IS OVERWEIGHTED IN EUROPE, RELATIVE TO THE INDEX. WHERE HAVE
YOU FOUND OPPORTUNITIES THERE?
A. Mainly in financial and consumer nondurable stocks, as well as interest
rate-sensitive issues - because European bond markets have been rallying -
and cyclicals - those that tend to rise and fall with the economy. European
stocks have rallied lately, mainly on the strength of the technology
sector. In the short run, I've missed some opportunity there, because I
found the tech stocks to be too expensive and risky. Some of the appealing
consumer nondurable names have been Guinness, Cadbury-Schweppes, Bass and
Nestle. Barclays, National Westminster, Swiss Bank and C.S. Holdings were
among the fund's financial stock investments. I've added investments in
cyclical stocks because they became cheap. Those include paper companies Mo
Och Domsjoe and Svenska Cellulosa; auto stocks Volvo and Peugeot; and tire
companies such as Michelin.
Q. WHAT ABOUT THE FUND'S EMERGING MARKET INVESTMENTS?
A. I've been more active there because, as I said, I felt they had hit
bottom, and there were a lot of very interesting stocks. Among the stocks
that have caught my eye have been Hong Kong/Shanghai Bank (HSBC) and Hong
Kong Land Holdings; Philippine Long Distance Telephone; the department
store Matahari and cigarette manufacturer Gudang Garam in Indonesia; Krung
Thai Bank; Telecom Argentina; and Mexican companies Bancomer, Telmex, Cemex
and Grupo Carso.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK GOING FORWARD?
A. Several factors are important to consider. First of all, it seems most
stock markets reflect the sentiment that any worldwide recession will stay
pretty shallow and that growth will resume. Of course, this is the best
possible scenario. At the same time, if the U.S. market stumbles, one would
expect there to be a drop in foreign markets. In such a scenario, I believe
overseas markets wouldn't drop as far as the U.S, because they haven't
gained as much recently, but it's impossible to say for sure. How the
dollar does also will be important. Going forward, I'll stay with my usual
game plan, looking for opportunities in any markets that appear to have
excellent value.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended June 30, 1995 (Unaudited)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
The Money Market Portfolio, High Income Portfolio, Equity-Income Portfolio,
Growth Portfolio and Overseas Portfolio (the funds) are funds of Variable
Insurance Products Fund (the trust). The trust is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end
management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.
Each fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. Shares of
each fund may only be purchased by insurance companies for the purpose of
funding variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. The
following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the funds:
SECURITY VALUATION:
MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO. As permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, and
certain conditions therein, securities are valued initially at cost and
thereafter assume a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or
premium.
HIGH INCOME PORTFOLIO. Securities for which quotations are readily
available are valued by a pricing service at their market values as
determined by their most recent bid prices in the principal market (sales
prices if the principal market is an exchange) in which such securities are
normally traded. Securities (including restricted securities) for which
market quotations are not readily available are valued at their fair value
as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures under the
general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term securities
maturing within sixty days of their purchase date are valued at amortized
cost or original cost plus interest, both of which approximate current
value.
EQUITY-INCOME AND GROWTH PORTFOLIOS. Securities for which exchange
quotations are readily available are valued at the last sale price, or if
no sale price, at the closing bid price. Securities for which exchange
quotations are not readily available (and in certain cases debt securities
which trade on an exchange), are valued primarily using dealer-supplied
valuations or at their fair value as determined in good faith under
consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board
of Trustees. Short-term securities maturing within sixty days of their
purchase date are valued at amortized cost or original cost plus accrued
interest, both of which approximate current value.
OVERSEAS PORTFOLIO. Securities for which quotations are readily available
are valued at the last sales price, or if no sale price, at the closing bid
prices in the principal market in which such securities are normally
traded. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available
are valued
primarily using dealer-supplied valuations or at their fair value as
determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures under the
general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term securities
maturing within sixty days of their purchase date are valued at amortized
cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of which approximate
current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the funds are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Purchases and
sales of securities, income receipts, and expense payments are translated
into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates
of the transactions.
Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent
net gains and losses from sales and maturities of forward currency
contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains and losses
realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions,
and the difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and
the U.S. dollar amount actually received. The effects of changes in foreign
currency exchange rates on investments in securities are included with the
net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code, each fund is not subject to income taxes to
the extent that it distributes substantially all of its taxable income for
the fiscal year. The schedules of investments include information regarding
income taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME:
MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO. Interest income, which includes amortization of
premium and accretion of original issue discount, is accrued as earned.
HIGH INCOME, EQUITY-INCOME, GROWTH AND OVERSEAS PORTFOLIOS. Dividend income
is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign
securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, are recorded as soon
as the funds are informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, which
includes accretion of original issue discount, is accrued as earned.
Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery
of such taxes is uncertain.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned between the
funds in the trust.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends are declared daily and paid
monthly from net interest income for the Money Market Portfolio.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date for all other funds.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences, which may result in distribution
reclassifications, are primarily due to differing treatments for foreign
currency transactions, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), market
discount, partnerships, non-taxable dividends and losses deferred due to
wash sales and excise tax regulations.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital and may
affect the per-share allocation between net investment income and realized
and unrealized gain (loss). Undistributed net investment income and
accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments and
foreign currency transactions may include temporary book and tax basis
differences which will reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable income
or gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the following year.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade
date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The funds, except for the Money Market
Portfolio, may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in
foreign securities and to manage the funds' currency exposure. Contracts to
buy generally are used to acquire exposure to foreign currencies, while
contracts to sell are used to hedge the funds' investments against currency
fluctuations. Also, a contract to buy or sell can offset a previous
contract. These contracts involve market risk in excess of the unrealized
gain or loss reflected in the funds' Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
The U.S. dollar value of the currencies each applicable fund has committed
to buy or sell is shown in the schedule of investments under the caption
"Forward Foreign Currency Contracts." This amount represents the aggregate
exposure to each currency acquired or hedged through currency contracts at
period end. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign
currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts'
terms.
The U.S. dollar value of forward foreign currency contracts is determined
using forward currency exchange rates supplied by a quotation service.
Purchases and sales of forward foreign currency contracts having the same
settlement date and broker are offset and any realized gain (loss) is
recognized on the date of offset; otherwise, gain (loss) is recognized on
settlement date.
Contracts that have been offset with different counterparties are reflected
as both a contract to buy and a contract to sell in each applicable fund's
schedule of investments under the caption "Forward Foreign Currency
Contracts."
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the funds, along with other affiliated
entities of Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), may transfer
uninvested cash balances into one or more joint trading accounts. These
balances are invested in one or more repurchase agreements that mature in
60 days or less from the date of purchase, and are collateralized by U.S.
Treasury or Federal Agency obligations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The funds, through their custodian, receive delivery
of the underlying securities, whose market value is required to be at least
102% of the resale price at the time of purchase. FMR, the funds'
investment adviser, is responsible for determining that the value of these
underlying securities remains at least equal to the resale price.
INDEXED SECURITIES. The funds, (excluding the Money Market Portfolio) may
invest in indexed securities whose values are linked either directly or
inversely to changes in foreign currencies, interest rates, commodities,
indices, or other underlying instruments. The funds use these securities to
increase or decrease their exposure to different underlying instruments and
to gain exposure to markets that might be difficult to invest in through
conventional securities. Indexed securities may be more volatile than their
underlying instruments, but any loss is limited to the amount of the
original investment.
RESTRICTED SECURITIES. The funds are permitted to invest in privately
placed restricted securities. These securities may be resold in
transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities
are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming
negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be
difficult. At the end of the period, restricted securities (excluding 144A
issues) amounted to $20,998,411 or 2.7% of net assets for the Money Market
Portfolio and $15,265,476 or 1.9% of net assets for the High Income
Portfolio.
3. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As each fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a monthly
fee.
For the Money Market Portfolio, FMR receives a monthly fee that is
calculated on the basis of a basic fund fee rate of .03% of the fund's
average net assets, plus a fixed income group fee rate and an income-based
fee. The group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of rates
ranging from .1200% to .3700% and is based on the monthly average net
assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The income-based fee is
added only when the fund's gross yield exceeds 5%. At that time the
income-based fee would equal 6% of that portion of the fund's gross income
that represents a gross yield of more than 5% per year. The maximum

MANAGEMENT FEE - CONTINUED
income-based component is .24% of average net assets. For the period, the
management fee was equivalent to an annualized rate of .25% of average net
assets.
For all other funds, FMR receives a monthly fee that is calculated on the
basis of a group fee rate plus a fixed individual fund fee rate applied to
the average net assets of the fund. The group fee rate is the weighted
average of a series of rates and is based on the monthly average net assets
of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The rates ranged from .1200% to
.3700% for the High Income Portfolio and .2700% to .5200% for the
Equity-Income, Growth and Overseas Portfolios for the period. In the event
that these rates were lower than the contractual rates in effect during the
period, FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates, as they resulted in
the same or a lower management fee. The annual individual fund fee rates
are .20%, .30%, .45% and .45% for the Equity-Income, Growth, Overseas, and
High Income Portfolios, respectively. For the period, the management fees
were equivalent to annualized rates of .60%, .52%, .62%, and .77% of
average net assets for the High Income, Equity-Income, Growth, and Overseas
Portfolios, respectively.
SUB-ADVISER FEE. As the Money Market Portfolio's investment sub-adviser,
FMR Texas Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of FMR, receives a fee from FMR
of 50% of the management fee payable to FMR. The fees are paid prior to any
voluntary expense reimbursements which may be in effect, and after reducing
the fee for any payments by FMR pursuant to the fund's Distribution and
Service Plan.
FMR, on behalf of the High Income and Overseas Portfolios, entered into
sub-advisory agreements with affiliates of FMR. In addition, one of the
sub-advisers of the Overseas Portfolio, Fidelity International Investment
Advisors (FIIA), entered into a sub-advisory agreement with its subsidiary,
Fidelity International Investment Advisors (U.K.) Limited (FIIAL U.K.).
Under the sub-advisory arrangements, FMR may receive investment advice and
research services and may grant the sub-advisers investment management
authority to buy and sell securities. FMR pays its sub-advisers either a
portion of its management fee or a fee based on costs incurred for these
services. FIIA pays FIIAL U.K. a fee based on costs incurred for either
service.
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company
(FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the funds' transfer, dividend disbursing
and shareholder servicing agent. Effective January 1, 1995, the Board of
Trustees approved a revised transfer agent contract pursuant to which FIIOC
receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to account
size and type of account. Under the prior transfer agent contract, FIIOC
received fees based on the type, size, number of accounts, and number of
transactions made by shareholders. FIIOC pays for typesetting, printing and
mailing of all shareholder reports, except proxy statements.
ACCOUNTING FEES. Fidelity Service Co.(FSC) an affiliate of FMR, maintains
the funds' accounting records. The fee is based on the level of average net
assets for the month plus out-of-pocket expenses.
BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS. Certain funds placed a portion of their portfolio
transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of FMR. The
commissions paid to these affiliated firms are shown under the caption
"Other Information" at the end of each applicable fund's schedule of
investments.
4. BANK BORROWINGS.
Each fund is permitted to have bank borrowings for temporary or emergency
purposes to fund shareholder redemptions. Each fund has established
borrowing arrangements with certain banks. Under the most restrictive
arrangement, each fund must pledge to the bank securities having a market
value in excess of 220% of the total bank borrowings. The interest rate on
the borrowings is the bank's base rate, as revised from time to time. For
the High Income and Equity-Income portfolios, the maximum loans during the
periods for which loans were outstanding amounted to $4,885,000 and
$18,269,000 respectively, and the average daily loan balances were
$4,885,000 and $18,269,000, respectively. The weighted average interest
rate was 6.4% for both the High Income Portfolio and for the Equity-Income
Portfolio.
5. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
FMR voluntarily agreed to reimburse the funds' operating expenses
(excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary
expenses) above an annual rate of 1.00% of average net assets for the High
Income Portfolio and 1.50% of average net assets for the Equity-Income,
Growth, and Overseas Portfolios. For the period, there was no reimbursement
under this arrangement.
FMR has directed certain portfolio trades of the High Income Portfolio to
brokers who paid a portion of the fund's expenses. For the period, the High
Income Portfolio's expenses were reduced by $5,422 under this agreement.
6. BENEFICIAL INTEREST.
At the end of the period, Fidelity Investments Life Insurance Company
(FILI), an affiliate of FMR, was the record owner of more than 5% of the
outstanding shares and certain unaffiliated insurance companies were record
owners of approximately 10% of the total outstanding shares of the
following funds:

PERFORMANCE
To measure a money market fund's performance, you can look at either total
return or yield. Total return reflects both the change
in a fund's share price over a given period, and reinvestment of its
dividends (or income). Yield measures the income paid by a fund. Since a
money market fund tries to maintain a $1 share price, yield is an important
measure of performance.
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED PAST 1 PAST 5 PAST 10
JUNE 30, 1995 YEAR YEARS YEARS
Money Market 5.44% 4.88% 6.19%
Consumer Price Index 3.04% 3.26% 3.55%
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS take the fund's actual (or cumulative) return
and show you what would have happened if the fund had achieved that return
by performing at a constant rate each year.
Comparing the fund's performance to the Consumer Price Index (CPI) helps
show how your investment did compared to inflation. (The periods covered by
the CPI numbers are the closest available match to those covered by the
fund.)
PERFORMANCE NUMBERS ARE NET OF ALL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES, BUT DO NOT
INCLUDE ANY INSURANCE CHARGES IMPOSED BY YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY'S SEPARATE
ACCOUNT. IF PERFORMANCE INFORMATION INCLUDED THE EFFECT OF THESE ADDITIONAL
CHARGES, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN LOWER.
If the advisor had not reimbursed certain fund expenses, the past five
years and life of fund total returns would have been lower. Yield
will vary.

YIELD refers to the income paid by the fund over a given period. Yields for
money market funds are usually for seven-day periods,
expressed as annual percentage rates. A yield that assumes income earned is
reinvested or compounded is called an effective yield. The chart above
shows the fund's current seven-day yield at quarterly intervals over the
past year. This is compared to similar yields for the average bank money
market deposit account (MMDA). The MMDA average is supplied by BANK RATE
MONITOR.(Trademark)
COMPARING PERFORMANCE
There are some important differences between
a bank money market deposit account (MMDA)
and a money market fund. First, the U.S.
government neither insures nor guarantees a
money market fund. In fact, there is no
assurance that a money fund will maintain a $1
share price. Second, a money market fund
returns to its shareholders income earned by the
fund's investments after expenses. This is in
contrast to banks, which set their MMDA rates
periodically based on current interest rates,
competitors' rates, and internal criteria.

VARIABLE INSURANCE PRODUCTS FUND: MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with
Bob Litterst, Portfolio
Manager of Money
Market Portfolio
Q. BOB, CAN YOU BRING US UP TO DATE ON MARKET CONDITIONS?
A. Sure. The economic growth rate has slowed dramatically during the past
six months. During the fourth quarter of 1994, the gross domestic product
expanded at a rate of 5.1%, a very strong showing. Moreover, final sales
rose 5.7%, meaning sales exceeded production and depleted inventories.
Those signs of growth, along with disturbing trends in such leading
indicators of inflation as unemployment and capacity utilization, prompted
the Federal Reserve to raise the federal funds rate, the rate banks charge
each other for overnight loans, another one-half percentage point in
February.
Q. HOW HAS THE INTEREST RATE ENVIRONMENT CHANGED SINCE THEN?
A. Even as the Fed was tightening credit for the seventh time in a little
more than a year, there were signs that the economy was beginning to lose
steam. Led by softening consumer activity and weakness in
interest-sensitive sectors such as housing and autos, the growth rate
during the first quarter of 1995 slowed to 2.7%. Currently, most economists
have long since stopped worrying about the economy overheating. Now they
have an altogether different concern: that we might be headed for another
recession. By the end of June, it was clear to all that the latest cycle of
interest rate increases was over. Instead, speculation centered on when the
Fed might feel compelled to lower rates.
Q. HOW DID YOU RESPOND TO CHANGING CONDITIONS?
A. The fund's average maturity six months ago, when the period began, was
39 days. That was a defensive number. It reflected my view at the time that
further rate increases were likely. As it became apparent that the economy
was slowing more rapidly than initially expected, my expectations regarding
Fed policy changed, and I gradually extended the fund's average maturity. I
moved cautiously at first because conditions were unsettled and it seemed
prudent to maintain flexibility. But as signs of weakness accumulated, I
began to prepare for a shift in Fed policy, including the possibility of an
eventual rate cut. By the end of June, the fund's average maturity was more
aggressive than that of most other taxable money market funds-around 60
days, compared to about 50 days for most competitors.
Q. HOW DID YOU ACHIEVE THAT LONGER AVERAGE MATURITY?
A. Mainly by focusing on three-month and six-month securities, rather than
moving further out the yield curve. That's because by the end of the
period, expectations for declining short-term rates caused longer-term
yields on some money market securities to fall below shorter-term yields, a
situation known as an inverted yield curve.
Q. WHAT ABOUT ASSET SELECTION?
A. I've reduced the fund's stake in U.S. Treasury and agency securities.
Normally the fund averages about 10% in government securities, although
it's been as high as 20% at times during the past year or two. But in
recent months, technical factors affecting supply and demand have priced
government securities unusually high. The main cause seems to be heavy
buying on the part of foreign central banks with funds accumulated in
support of the U.S. dollar. With so many other creditworthy alternatives
available, I've looked elsewhere for value, adding higher-yielding
commercial paper and bank certificates of deposit. At the end of June,
government securities totaled less than 3% of the fund's assets.
Q. WHAT'S THE OUTLOOK?
A. The next few months should be interesting. We know that on July 6,
shortly after the period ended, the Fed lowered the federal funds rate
one-quarter percentage point, but as we look ahead, much uncertainty
remains. Some market participants believe that we're in the early stages of
an extended downturn. Others believe that what's happening is merely a
brief but severe inventory correction, and that the economy will resume
growing at its long-term trend rate of around 2.5% once the temporary
buildup in inventories sells off.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR VIEW?
A. I tend to side with those in the latter camp. The typical prerequisites
for a recession, including high inflation and tight bank lending standards,
simply don't exist. That said, I'm concerned that if this Spring's weakness
in the labor market persists, it could evolve into a self-reinforcing
slowdown, forcing the Fed to continue lowering rates. While I don't think
that will happen, I have to respect the possibility of such a development.
Accordingly, I'll probably maintain a neutral to aggressive average
maturity of between 60 and 65 days for the foreseeable future.

VARIABLE INSURANCE PRODUCTS FUND: HIGH INCOME PORTFOLIO
PERFORMANCE AND INVESTMENT SUMMARY
PERFORMANCE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance: total
percentage change in value, the average annual percentage change, or the
growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Each performance figure
includes changes in a fund's share price, plus reinvestment of any
dividends (income) and capital gains (the profits the fund earns when it
sells stocks that have grown in value).
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED PAST 1 PAST 5 LIFE OF
JUNE 30, 1995 YEAR YEARS FUND
HIGH INCOME 11.89% 16.87% 11.60%
Merrill Lynch High Yield Master 14.88% 14.23% n/a
Consumer Price Index 3.04% 3.26% 3.57%
AVERAGE ANNUAL RETURNS take the fund's actual (or cumulative) return and
show you what would have happened if the fund had performed at a constant
rate each year.
UNDERSTANDING PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of
how it will do tomorrow. Bond prices, for
example, generally move in the opposite
direction of interest rates. In turn, the share price,
return, and yield of a fund that invests in bonds
will vary. That means if you sell your shares
during a market downturn, you might lose
money. But if you can ride out the market's ups
and downs, you may have a gain.
(checkmark)
You can compare the fund's returns to those of the Merrill Lynch High Yield
Master Index - a broad measure of the high yield bond market. This
benchmark includes reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any.
Comparing the fund's performance to the consumer price index (CPI) helps
show how your fund did compared to inflation. (The CPI returns begin on the
month end closest to the fund's start date).
Figures for more than one year assume a steady compounded rate of return
and are not the fund's year-by-year results, which fluctuated over the
periods shown. The life of fund figures are from commencement of
operations, September 19, 1985.
If the adviser had not reimbursed certain fund expenses during the periods
shown, the total returns would have been lower.
PERFORMANCE NUMBERS ARE NET OF ALL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES, BUT DO NOT
INCLUDE ANY INSURANCE CHARGES IMPOSED BY YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY'S SEPARATE
ACCOUNT. IF PERFORMANCE INFORMATION INCLUDED THE EFFECT OF THESE ADDITIONAL
CHARGES, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN LOWER.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Principal and
investment return will vary and you may have a gain or loss when you
withdraw your money. The fund includes high yielding, lower-rated
securities which are subject to greater price volatility and may involve
greater risk of default. The market for these securities may be less
liquid.

Let's say you invested $10,000 in High Income Portfolio on September 30,
1985, shortly after the fund started. By June 30, 1995, your investment
would have grown to $29,206 - a 192.06% increase. That compares to $10,000
invested in the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master Index, which would have
grown to $30,339 over the same period - a 203.39% increase.

VARIABLE INSURANCE PRODUCTS FUND: HIGH INCOME PORTFOLIO
FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with Barry Coffman, Portfolio Manager of High Income Portfolio
Q. HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED, BARRY?
A. Although the fund did well relative to its peers, it trailed the
performance of the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master Index, which returned
12.76% and 14.88%, respectively, for the six and 12-month periods ended
June 30, 1995. The index has a larger percentage of Ba-rated bonds than
most high-yield mutual funds, which tend to be more concentrated in B-rated
bonds. Generally speaking, Ba-rated bonds are more sensitive to changing
interest rates, and therefore, benefited more from the recent decline in
interest rates than B-rated bonds. As a result, very few high yield funds
outperformed the index.
Q. WHAT FACTORS CONTRIBUTED TO THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE?
A. The fund's relatively low weighting in Ba-rated securities was the
primary reason for its underperformance relative to its benchmark during
the most recent period. On the positive side, we have maintained a high
weighting, compared to the benchmark, in deferred coupon securities. These
bonds sell at a deep discount because they do not pay current interest for
some period, usually three to five years. They generally have longer
durations - which measures how sensitive their price is to changes in
interest rates - and therefore, their prices are more volatile. We also
avoided most of the credit disasters that occurred in the market.
Q. WHAT INVESTMENTS HAVE DONE WELL IN THE PAST SIX MONTHS?
A. Revlon continued to benefit from an operational restructuring and the
very successful launch of two key new products: Color Stay Lipstick and Age
Defying Makeup. Our Revlon position is concentrated in the most junior
securities that are most sensitive to changes in credit quality, which has
been a recent plus. Another strong performer was Big Flower Press, a large
commercial printer of advertising inserts, comics and television guides.
The company was helped by the strong growth in advertising and the
synergies it gained from some recent acquisitions. Finally, our
concentration in casinos and hotels did relatively well during the period.
Q. GIVEN THE MARKET'S STRENGTH SO FAR IN 1995, WAS IT DIFFICULT TO FIND
OPPORTUNITIES?
A. Not particularly. The new issues market was active and provided ample
opportunity to selectively add new names to the fund. One example was
PanAmSat Corp., which operates an international satellite communications
system and provides satellite services to the broadcasting and business
communications markets. It currently has two satellites operating and also
has a large backlog of contracted time from companies including ESPN and
Viacom for two new satellites it will be launching later this year. The
company is participating in a joint venture to provide Direct to Home (DTH)
television broadcasting service to Latin America, similar to the Direct TV
service in the United States. Another new issue we purchased was
Stratosphere Corp., a Las Vegas-based casino owned by industry-leader Grand
Casino. These bonds are attractive, in part, because in addition to their
14.25% coupon, they pay additional interest based on a percentage of the
company's cash flow.
Q. WHAT INVESTMENTS DIDN'T FARE AS WELL?
A. The high-yield restaurant sector, in general, did not perform well
during the period due to competitive pressures and a slowing economy. One
of our largest holdings is Flagstar, the parent of Denny's and the largest
franchisee of Hardees. Although Denny's has benefited from an aggressive
remodeling program, Hardees has suffered due to aggressive price promotions
from the major burger chains. Another restaurant chain, American Restaurant
Group, also underperformed partly due to the concentration of its chains in
California, where the economy continues to be weaker than the rest of the
country.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE NEXT SIX MONTHS?
A. The probability of the soft landing scenario is increasing, which could
provide a favorable backdrop for the high-yield bond market. Slow economic
growth and low inflation could allow many companies in the high-yield
market to improve their credit quality. Absolute yields remain attractive,
and absent a sharp drop in interest rates from current levels, high-yield
bonds could perform well relative to other fixed-income investments. In my
view, the key is to be selective. I'm focusing on companies that are less
cyclical, or sensitive to the economy, and choosing companies that I think
can perform well in a slow-growth environment.

PERFORMANCE AND INVESTMENT SUMMARY
PERFORMANCE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance: total
percentage change in value, the average annual percentage change, or the
growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Each performance figure
includes changes in a fund's share price, plus reinvestment of any
dividends (income) and capital gains (the profits the fund earns when it
sells stocks that have grown in value).
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED PAST 1 PAST 5 LIFE OF
JUNE 30, 1995 YEAR YEARS FUND
Equity-Income 24.00% 15.06% 12.30%
S&P 500 26.07% 12.09% 13.58%
AVERAGE ANNUAL RETURNS take the fund's actual (or cumulative) return and
show you what would have happened if the fund had performed at a constant
rate each year.
UNDERSTANDING PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how
it will do tomorrow. The stock market, for
example, has a history of growth in the long run
and volatility in the short run. In turn, the share
price and return of a fund that invests in stocks
will vary. That means if you sell your shares
during a market downturn, you might lose
money. But if you can ride out the market's ups
and downs, you may have a gain.
(checkmark)
You can compare these figures to the performance of the Standard & Poor's
Composite Index of 500 stocks - a common proxy for the U.S. stock market.
This benchmark includes reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any.
Figures for more than one year assume a steady compounded rate of return
and are not the fund's year-by-year results, which fluctuated over the
periods shown. The life of fund figures are from commencement of
operations, October 9, 1986.
PERFORMANCE NUMBERS ARE NET OF ALL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES, BUT DO NOT
INCLUDE ANY INSURANCE CHARGES IMPOSED BY YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY'S SEPARATE
ACCOUNT. IF PERFORMANCE INFORMATION INCLUDED THE EFFECT OF THESE ADDITIONAL
CHARGES, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN LOWER.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Principal and
investment return will vary and you may have a gain or loss when you
withdraw your money.

Let's say you invested $10,000 in Equity-Income Portfolio on October 9,
1986, when the fund started. By June 30, 1995, your investment would have
grown to $27,545 - a 175.45% increase. That compares to $10,000 invested in
the S&P 500, which would have grown to $30,408 over the same period - a
204.08% increase.

VARIABLE INSURANCE PRODUCTS FUND: EQUITY-INCOME PORTFOLIO
FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with Bettina Doulton, Portfolio Manager of Equity-Income
Portfolio
Q. BETTINA, HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
A. Although the fund did well relative to its peers, it slightly trailed
the performance of the Standard & Poor's 500 stock index for the six- and
12-month periods ended June 30, 1995. The index had total returns of 20.21%
and 26.07% for those periods, respectively. Because this recent stock
market rally was quite narrow - led by a few sectors, namely technology,
financials and the large-cap and blue-chip stocks - the average stock
mutual fund has not topped the performance of the index thus far in 1995.
Q. THE STOCK MARKET SHOWED A RENEWED VIGOR OVER THE PAST SIX MONTHS. WHAT
ACCOUNTED FOR THIS?
A. The market's strength was driven by investors' belief that the Federal
Reserve Board would manage the economy to a soft landing - steady, albeit
slower, economic growth and continued low inflation. If achieved, those
conditions are ideal for Corporate America to sustain strong profit growth.
During the six-month period, corporate earnings reports were excellent,
which provided the fuel for stock prices to move higher. Excluding the
consistently outstanding performance of the technology and financial
sectors, the market has been characterized by rapid industry rotation.
Investors have spent the past six months racing from one industry to the
next, trying to stay one step ahead of the crowd. Sometimes, the fund was
in the right place at the right time, and sometimes it wasn't.
Q. WHAT CONTRIBUTED TO THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE?
A. Several of the fund's largest holdings have driven returns recently.
Highlights include Philip Morris. The stock has been rewarded for the
company's strong profit growth and free cash flow; both are attributable to
terrific results in the company's domestic and international tobacco
businesses, which more than offset mediocre results in its food division.
Second in line is the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae).
Although its stock price suffered a significant setback last fall, it has
since recovered as conditions in the secondary mortgage market have turned
more favorable. IBM was another strong performer. The company has done an
excellent job cutting costs and cleaning up its balance sheet. In addition,
global economic growth and wide acceptance of the company's new products
have contributed to accelerating revenue growth. Finally, in the energy
sector, the energy service company Schlumberger performed well. It
benefited from improving worldwide supply/demand dynamics for oil and
corporate restructuring efforts. Elsewhere in the energy sector, however,
British Petroleum (BP) and Amerada Hess have been somewhat disappointing in
terms of stock performance. Both are restructuring stories; BP's stock may
just be taking a breather after making significant gains, while Amerada
Hess' turnaround may be just taking a bit longer than investors had
expected.
Q. YOU MORE THAN DOUBLED THE FUND'S STAKE IN FINANCIAL STOCKS; THEY WENT
FROM 7.1% OF THE FUND SIX MONTHS AGO TO 18.0% ON JUNE 30 . . .
A. Recent purchases of bank stocks made up most of that increase. Along
with the diversified financial services companies such as American Express
and Fannie Mae, banks had a strong, if volatile, run. My only regret is not
owning more of them early in the period, when they began to outperform.
Prices did fall in the spring, however, which allowed me to buy stocks such
as Chemical Banking and BankAmerica off their highs. In the coming months,
I expect the market to drive bank stock valuations - prices relative to
earnings - higher. That's because earnings are becoming more consistent,
the industry is consolidating, and companies are using excess capital to
repurchase shares of their own stocks.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE NEXT SIX MONTHS?
A. When interest rates fall, as they've done over the past few months, the
market usually rewards stocks with higher valuations. However, we have to
keep in mind that the economy has slowed, which could negatively affect
corporate earnings going forward. The 64-thousand-dollar question then
becomes: will the market's willingness to drive up valuations and look
toward an economic resurgence be enough to offset the negative effects of
potential short-term earnings disappointments? I'm afraid not. Companies
that report less-than-expected earnings growth in the coming months will
most likely pay dearly with falling stock prices. In light of this, I plan
to focus intensely on owning companies that trade at attractive valuations,
offer good prospects for higher earnings through 1996, and are working to
enhance shareholder value.

PERFORMANCE AND INVESTMENT SUMMARY
PERFORMANCE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance: total
percentage change in value, the average annual percentage change, or the
growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Each performance figure
includes changes in a fund's share price, plus reinvestment of any
dividends (income) and capital gains (the profits the fund earns when it
sells stocks that have grown in value).
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED PAST 1 PAST 5 LIFE OF
JUNE 30, 1995 YEAR YEARS FUND
Growth 36.97% 14.84% 14.56%
S&P 500 26.07% 12.09% 13.58%
AVERAGE ANNUAL RETURNS take the fund's actual (or cumulative) return and
show you what would have happened if the fund had performed at a constant
rate each year.
UNDERSTANDING PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how
it will do tomorrow. The stock market, for
example, has a history of growth in the long run
and volatility in the short run. In turn, the share
price and return of a fund that invests in stocks
will vary. That means if you sell your shares
during a market downturn, you might lose
money. But if you can ride out the market's ups
and downs, you may have a gain.
(checkmark)
You can compare these figures to the performance of the Standard & Poor's
Composite Index of 500 Stocks- a common proxy for the U.S. stock market.
This benchmark includes reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any, and
excludes the effects of sales charges.
Figures for more than one year assume a steady compounded rate of return
and are not the fund's year-by-year results, which fluctuated over the
periods shown. The life of fund figures are from commencement of
operations, October 9, 1986.
PERFORMANCE NUMBERS ARE NET OF ALL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES, BUT DO NOT
INCLUDE ANY INSURANCE CHARGES IMPOSED BY YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY'S SEPARATE
ACCOUNT. IF PERFORMANCE INFORMATION INCLUDED THE EFFECT OF THESE ADDITIONAL
CHARGES, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN LOWER.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Principal and
investment return will vary and you may have a gain or loss when you
withdraw your money.

Let's say you invested $10,000 in Growth Portfolio on October 9, 1986, when
the fund started. By June 30, 1995, your investment would have grown to
$32,782 - a 227.82% increase. That compares to $10,000 invested in the S&P
500, which would have grown to $30,408 over the same period - a 204.08%
increase.

VARIABLE INSURANCE PRODUCTS FUND: GROWTH PORTFOLIO
FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with Lawrence Greenberg, Portfolio
Manager of Growth Portfolio
Q. LARRY, HOW HAS THE FUND DONE OVER THE PAST SIX MONTHS?
A. Quite well. From December 31, 1994, through June 30, 1995, the fund beat
the Standard & Poor's 500 index, which returned 20.21%.
Q. WHAT MADE THE DIFFERENCE?
A. In the second half of 1994, growth stocks began outperforming cyclicals
- stocks in sectors like autos and steel that tend to rise or fall with the
economy. Since then, the economy has slowed and interest rates have been
flat or falling - a perfect environment for growth stocks. My strategy was
to concentrate on those companies with the fastest earnings growth
opportunities for `95 and `96. This aggressive position, especially in
technology, paid off handsomely when growth stocks rebounded.
Q. IN FACT, OVER 50% OF THE FUND WAS IN TECHNOLOGY AT THE END OF JUNE. WHY
SUCH A HUGE BET?
A. Because on a stock-by-stock basis that's where I'm still finding what I
believe are the best growth opportunities. Technology stocks are benefiting
from strong corporate and consumer demand. Business is booming across all
segments - from PCs and software to semiconductors and networking. Plus,
unlike a retailer, which can only grow as fast as it can build bricks and
mortar, a technology company can grow at any rate. The fund has dozens of
companies that are growing sales well over 100% per year. Finally, despite
the fastest sales and earnings growth of any stocks in the market, many of
these companies still have attractive prices compared to other measures
like earnings.
Q. WHERE DID YOU FIND THE BEST OPPORTUNITIES?
A. Across the board. I added new technology names, but I also made bigger
investments in the companies I have the most confidence in. For example, I
significantly boosted the fund's stake in both Intel, which makes
microprocessors like the Pentium chip that are the brains of PCs, and
Micron Technology, one of the few manufacturers of memory chips called
DRAMs that go inside PCs and other electronic equipment. Both stocks posted
sizable gains for the period. I also added to our stake in Applied
Materials, the leading supplier of semiconductor manufacturing equipment,
whose sales grew more than 60% this year. Our biggest investment is still
Oracle, the leading provider of software for client-server set-ups; it
continued to benefit as more companies moved away from mainframes toward
PCs linked through networks.
Q. WERE THERE DISAPPOINTMENTS?
A. Sure. The stock price of Sybase, a competitor to Oracle, fell nearly 50%
in the last six months as it ran into problems launching a new product. One
of our biggest positions six months ago was Motorola; it started having
some near-term problems related to oversupply on its cellular handsets, so
I cut back even though the stock's long-term outlook remained attractive.
Finally, some retailers like Home Depot and Lowe's turned in disappointing
short-term results as heavy rains in California and the Southeast hurt
business. But many of the "hard good category killers" (or superstores) I
focused on continued to grow despite the slowdown in overall retail sales
that we saw this spring.
Q. WHY DID YOU CUT BACK IN HEALTH CARE?
A. The fund's health care stake was around 3% at the end of June, down from
7.7% six months earlier. During the first half of 1994, uncertainty
surrounding President Clinton's plans for health care reform had hurt the
sector. Then, last fall, the stocks rallied as it became apparent that
health care legislation wouldn't pass anytime soon. But once the
Republicans took charge in January, they cast another cloud over the sector
as they promised to re-examine programs like Medicare. So I decided to
watch from the sidelines.
Q. LOOKING AHEAD, WHAT SHOULD SHAREHOLDERS EXPECT?
A. In the past, technology stocks haven't done as well over the summer, as
European demand dries up and new product launches disappear. But this year,
since demand has been so strong, we may see no summer slowdown or one
that's much less pronounced. Nevertheless, shareholders should expect
volatility because the fund is aggressively invested in the fastest-growing
companies. If either the technology sector or the market declines, the fund
will suffer more than other stock funds. But it's also in a good position
to benefit more than its peers from a long-term up market, which I believe
is more likely.

PERFORMANCE AND INVESTMENT SUMMARY
PERFORMANCE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance: total
percentage change in value, the average annual percentage change, or the
growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Each performance figure
includes changes in a fund's share price, plus reinvestment of any
dividends (income) and capital gains (the profits the fund earns when it
sells stocks that have grown in value).
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED PAST 1 PAST 5 LIFE OF
JUNE 30, 1995 YEAR YEARS FUND
OVERSEAS 2.96% 4.76% 7.12%
Morgan Stanley EAFE Index 1.65% 4.69% 6.97%
AVERAGE ANNUAL RETURNS take the fund's actual (or cumulative) return and
show you what would have happened if the fund had performed at a constant
rate each year.
UNDERSTANDING PERFORMANCE
Many markets around the globe offer the potential
for significant growth over time; however,
investing in foreign markets means assuming
greater risks than investing in the United States.
Factors like changes in a country's financial
markets, its local political and economic
climate, and the fluctuating value of its currency
create these risks. For these reasons an
international fund's performance may be more
volatile than a fund that invests exclusively in the
United States.
(checkmark)
You can compare the fund's figures to the performance of the Morgan Stanley
EAFE index - a broad measure of the performance of stocks in Europe,
Australia, and the Far East. This benchmark includes reinvested dividends
and capital gains, if any, and excludes the effects of sales charges.
Figures for more than one year assume a steady compounded rate of return
and are not the fund's year-by-year results, which fluctuated over the
periods shown. The life of fund figures are from commencement of operations
January 28, 1987.
PERFORMANCE NUMBERS ARE NET OF ALL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES, BUT DO NOT
INCLUDE ANY INSURANCE CHARGES IMPOSED BY YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY'S SEPARATE
ACCOUNT. IF PERFORMANCE INFORMATION INCLUDED THE EFFECT OF THESE ADDITIONAL
CHARGES, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN LOWER.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Principal and
investment return will vary and you may have a gain or loss when you
withdraw your money. Foreign investments involve greater risks and
potential rewards than U.S. investments. These risks include political and
economic uncertainties of foreign countries, as well as the risk of
currency fluctuations.

VARIABLE INSURANCE PRODUCTS FUND: OVERSEAS PORTFOLIO
FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with John Hickling, Portfolio Manager of Overseas Portfolio
Q. JOHN, HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED?
A. For the six months and one year ended June 30, 1995, the fund's
performance topped that of the Morgan Stanley EAFE index - a broad measure
of stocks in Europe, Australia and the Far East. The index had total
returns of 2.60% and 1.65% for the six- and 12-month periods, respectively.
Q. WHAT WERE THE KEYS TO THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE OVER THE PAST SIX MONTHS?
A. First, I kept the fund fully invested through much of the period.
Second, some of the stocks I picked in Japan and Europe fared well. And
finally, the fund was able to benefit from new investments in emerging
markets.
Q. WHY DID THE EAFE INDEX OFFER RELATIVELY LOW RETURNS?
A. While European markets have performed relatively well - though not as
well as the U.S. market - emerging markets and Japan have not. Japan was
affected by a number of factors that dampened investor enthusiasm: the
Barings debacle, the Kobe earthquake and the subway gas attack. The
Japanese market also was hurt by the strength of the yen versus the dollar.
On the heels of Mexico's devaluation of the peso in late 1994, emerging
markets also struggled, although they appear to have pretty much bottomed
out.
Q. WHAT'S THE STORY BEHIND THE FUND'S INVESTMENTS IN JAPAN?
A. Even though Japan has the highest country representation in the fund,
I've kept the fund underweighted there, relative to the index. I've focused
much of the fund's Japanese investments in technology, including consumer
electronics companies Toshiba and Hitachi, and other manufacturers and
exporters that are poised to take advantage of economic activity both in
Japan and globally. While the technology sector has done well in the U.S.,
it has been weak in Japan, so I found valuations to be attractive. The
sector recently has shown some strong gains. In addition, I've targeted
some financial stocks. The Japanese market has started to pick up a bit
lately, and brokerage house Nomura Securities is poised to take advantage
because it has been cutting costs aggressively. In addition, it appears
trust banks such as Sumitomo Trust will be able to improve interest margins
- the difference between what they charge for loans and what they pay to
depositors - because of changing regulations.
Q. THE FUND IS OVERWEIGHTED IN EUROPE, RELATIVE TO THE INDEX. WHERE HAVE
YOU FOUND OPPORTUNITIES THERE?
A. Mainly in financial and consumer nondurable stocks, as well as interest
rate-sensitive issues - because European bond markets have been rallying -
and cyclicals - those that tend to rise and fall with the economy. European
stocks have rallied lately, mainly on the strength of the technology
sector. In the short run, I've missed some opportunity there, because I
found the tech stocks to be too expensive and risky. Some of the appealing
consumer nondurable names have been Guinness, Cadbury-Schweppes, Bass and
Nestle. Barclays, National Westminster, Swiss Bank and C.S. Holdings were
among the fund's financial stock investments. I've added investments in
cyclical stocks because they became cheap. Those include paper companies Mo
Och Domsjoe and Svenska Cellulosa; auto stocks Volvo and Peugeot; and tire
companies such as Michelin.
Q. WHAT ABOUT THE FUND'S EMERGING MARKET INVESTMENTS?
A. I've been more active there because, as I said, I felt they had hit
bottom, and there were a lot of very interesting stocks. Among the stocks
that have caught my eye have been Hong Kong/Shanghai Bank (HSBC) and Hong
Kong Land Holdings; Philippine Long Distance Telephone; the department
store Matahari and cigarette manufacturer Gudang Garam in Indonesia; Krung
Thai Bank; Telecom Argentina; and Mexican companies Bancomer, Telmex, Cemex
and Grupo Carso.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK GOING FORWARD?
A. Several factors are important to consider. First of all, it seems most
stock markets reflect the sentiment that any worldwide recession will stay
pretty shallow and that growth will resume. Of course, this is the best
possible scenario. At the same time, if the U.S. market stumbles, one would
expect there to be a drop in foreign markets. In such a scenario, I believe
overseas markets wouldn't drop as far as the U.S, because they haven't
gained as much recently, but it's impossible to say for sure. How the
dollar does also will be important. Going forward, I'll stay with my usual
game plan, looking for opportunities in any markets that appear to have
excellent value.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended June 30, 1995 (Unaudited)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
The Money Market Portfolio, High Income Portfolio, Equity-Income Portfolio,
Growth Portfolio and Overseas Portfolio (the funds) are funds of Variable
Insurance Products Fund (the trust). The trust is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end
management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.
Each fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. Shares of
each fund may only be purchased by insurance companies for the purpose of
funding variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. The
following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the funds:
SECURITY VALUATION:
MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO. As permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, and
certain conditions therein, securities are valued initially at cost and
thereafter assume a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or
premium.
HIGH INCOME PORTFOLIO. Securities for which quotations are readily
available are valued by a pricing service at their market values as
determined by their most recent bid prices in the principal market (sales
prices if the principal market is an exchange) in which such securities are
normally traded. Securities (including restricted securities) for which
market quotations are not readily available are valued at their fair value
as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures under the
general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term securities
maturing within sixty days of their purchase date are valued at amortized
cost or original cost plus interest, both of which approximate current
value.
EQUITY-INCOME AND GROWTH PORTFOLIOS. Securities for which exchange
quotations are readily available are valued at the last sale price, or if
no sale price, at the closing bid price. Securities for which exchange
quotations are not readily available (and in certain cases debt securities
which trade on an exchange), are valued primarily using dealer-supplied
valuations or at their fair value as determined in good faith under
consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board
of Trustees. Short-term securities maturing within sixty days of their
purchase date are valued at amortized cost or original cost plus accrued
interest, both of which approximate current value.
OVERSEAS PORTFOLIO. Securities for which quotations are readily available
are valued at the last sales price, or if no sale price, at the closing bid
prices in the principal market in which such securities are normally
traded. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available
are valued
primarily using dealer-supplied valuations or at their fair value as
determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures under the
general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term securities
maturing within sixty days of their purchase date are valued at amortized
cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of which approximate
current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the funds are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Purchases and
sales of securities, income receipts, and expense payments are translated
into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates
of the transactions.
Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent
net gains and losses from sales and maturities of forward currency
contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains and losses
realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions,
and the difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and
the U.S. dollar amount actually received. The effects of changes in foreign
currency exchange rates on investments in securities are included with the
net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code, each fund is not subject to income taxes to
the extent that it distributes substantially all of its taxable income for
the fiscal year. The schedules of investments include information regarding
income taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME:
MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO. Interest income, which includes amortization of
premium and accretion of original issue discount, is accrued as earned.
HIGH INCOME, EQUITY-INCOME, GROWTH AND OVERSEAS PORTFOLIOS. Dividend income
is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign
securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, are recorded as soon
as the funds are informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, which
includes accretion of original issue discount, is accrued as earned.
Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery
of such taxes is uncertain.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned between the
funds in the trust.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends are declared daily and paid
monthly from net interest income for the Money Market Portfolio.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date for all other funds.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences, which may result in distribution
reclassifications, are primarily due to differing treatments for foreign
currency transactions, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), market
discount, partnerships, non-taxable dividends and losses deferred due to
wash sales and excise tax regulations.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital and may
affect the per-share allocation between net investment income and realized
and unrealized gain (loss). Undistributed net investment income and
accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments and
foreign currency transactions may include temporary book and tax basis
differences which will reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable income
or gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the following year.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade
date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The funds, except for the Money Market
Portfolio, may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in
foreign securities and to manage the funds' currency exposure. Contracts to
buy generally are used to acquire exposure to foreign currencies, while
contracts to sell are used to hedge the funds' investments against currency
fluctuations. Also, a contract to buy or sell can offset a previous
contract. These contracts involve market risk in excess of the unrealized
gain or loss reflected in the funds' Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
The U.S. dollar value of the currencies each applicable fund has committed
to buy or sell is shown in the schedule of investments under the caption
"Forward Foreign Currency Contracts." This amount represents the aggregate
exposure to each currency acquired or hedged through currency contracts at
period end. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign
currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts'
terms.
The U.S. dollar value of forward foreign currency contracts is determined
using forward currency exchange rates supplied by a quotation service.
Purchases and sales of forward foreign currency contracts having the same
settlement date and broker are offset and any realized gain (loss) is
recognized on the date of offset; otherwise, gain (loss) is recognized on
settlement date.
Contracts that have been offset with different counterparties are reflected
as both a contract to buy and a contract to sell in each applicable fund's
schedule of investments under the caption "Forward Foreign Currency
Contracts."
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the funds, along with other affiliated
entities of Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), may transfer
uninvested cash balances into one or more joint trading accounts. These
balances are invested in one or more repurchase agreements that mature in
60 days or less from the date of purchase, and are collateralized by U.S.
Treasury or Federal Agency obligations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The funds, through their custodian, receive delivery
of the underlying securities, whose market value is required to be at least
102% of the resale price at the time of purchase. FMR, the funds'
investment adviser, is responsible for determining that the value of these
underlying securities remains at least equal to the resale price.
INDEXED SECURITIES. The funds, (excluding the Money Market Portfolio) may
invest in indexed securities whose values are linked either directly or
inversely to changes in foreign currencies, interest rates, commodities,
indices, or other underlying instruments. The funds use these securities to
increase or decrease their exposure to different underlying instruments and
to gain exposure to markets that might be difficult to invest in through
conventional securities. Indexed securities may be more volatile than their
underlying instruments, but any loss is limited to the amount of the
original investment.
RESTRICTED SECURITIES. The funds are permitted to invest in privately
placed restricted securities. These securities may be resold in
transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities
are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming
negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be
difficult. At the end of the period, restricted securities (excluding 144A
issues) amounted to $20,998,411 or 2.7% of net assets for the Money Market
Portfolio and $15,265,476 or 1.9% of net assets for the High Income
Portfolio.
3. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As each fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a monthly
fee.
For the Money Market Portfolio, FMR receives a monthly fee that is
calculated on the basis of a basic fund fee rate of .03% of the fund's
average net assets, plus a fixed income group fee rate and an income-based
fee. The group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of rates
ranging from .1200% to .3700% and is based on the monthly average net
assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The income-based fee is
added only when the fund's gross yield exceeds 5%. At that time the
income-based fee would equal 6% of that portion of the fund's gross income
that represents a gross yield of more than 5% per year. The maximum
3. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS
WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
MANAGEMENT FEE - CONTINUED
income-based component is .24% of average net assets. For the period, the
management fee was equivalent to an annualized rate of .25% of average net
assets.
For all other funds, FMR receives a monthly fee that is calculated on the
basis of a group fee rate plus a fixed individual fund fee rate applied to
the average net assets of the fund. The group fee rate is the weighted
average of a series of rates and is based on the monthly average net assets
of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The rates ranged from .1200% to
.3700% for the High Income Portfolio and .2700% to .5200% for the
Equity-Income, Growth and Overseas Portfolios for the period. In the event
that these rates were lower than the contractual rates in effect during the
period, FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates, as they resulted in
the same or a lower management fee. The annual individual fund fee rates
are .20%, .30%, .45% and .45% for the Equity-Income, Growth, Overseas, and
High Income Portfolios, respectively. For the period, the management fees
were equivalent to annualized rates of .60%, .52%, .62%, and .77% of
average net assets for the High Income, Equity-Income, Growth, and Overseas
Portfolios, respectively.
SUB-ADVISER FEE. As the Money Market Portfolio's investment sub-adviser,
FMR Texas Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of FMR, receives a fee from FMR
of 50% of the management fee payable to FMR. The fees are paid prior to any
voluntary expense reimbursements which may be in effect, and after reducing
the fee for any payments by FMR pursuant to the fund's Distribution and
Service Plan.
FMR, on behalf of the High Income and Overseas Portfolios, entered into
sub-advisory agreements with affiliates of FMR. In addition, one of the
sub-advisers of the Overseas Portfolio, Fidelity International Investment
Advisors (FIIA), entered into a sub-advisory agreement with its subsidiary,
Fidelity International Investment Advisors (U.K.) Limited (FIIAL U.K.).
Under the sub-advisory arrangements, FMR may receive investment advice and
research services and may grant the sub-advisers investment management
authority to buy and sell securities. FMR pays its sub-advisers either a
portion of its management fee or a fee based on costs incurred for these
services. FIIA pays FIIAL U.K. a fee based on costs incurred for either
service.
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company
(FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the funds' transfer, dividend disbursing
and shareholder servicing agent. Effective January 1, 1995, the Board of
Trustees approved a revised transfer agent contract pursuant to which FIIOC
receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to account
size and type of account. Under the prior transfer agent contract, FIIOC
received fees based on the type, size, number of accounts, and number of
transactions made by shareholders. FIIOC pays for typesetting, printing and
mailing of all shareholder reports, except proxy statements.
ACCOUNTING FEES. Fidelity Service Co.(FSC) an affiliate of FMR, maintains

transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of FMR. The

4. BANK BORROWINGS.
Each fund is permitted to have bank borrowings for temporary or emergency
purposes to fund shareholder redemptions. Each fund has established
borrowing arrangements with certain banks. Under the most restrictive
arrangement, each fund must pledge to the bank securities having a market
value in excess of 220% of the total bank borrowings. The interest rate on
the borrowings is the bank's base rate, as revised from time to time. For
the High Income and Equity-Income portfolios, the maximum loans during the
periods for which loans were outstanding amounted to $4,885,000 and
$18,269,000 respectively, and the average daily loan balances were
$4,885,000 and $18,269,000, respectively. The weighted average interest
rate was 6.4% for both the High Income Portfolio and for the Equity-Income
Portfolio.
5. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
FMR voluntarily agreed to reimburse the funds' operating expenses
(excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary
expenses) above an annual rate of 1.00% of average net assets for the High
Income Portfolio and 1.50% of average net assets for the Equity-Income,
Growth, and Overseas Portfolios. For the period, there was no reimbursement
under this arrangement.
FMR has directed certain portfolio trades of the High Income Portfolio to
brokers who paid a portion of the fund's expenses. For the period, the High
Income Portfolio's expenses were reduced by $5,422 under this agreement.
6. BENEFICIAL INTEREST.
At the end of the period, Fidelity Investments Life Insurance Company
(FILI), an affiliate of FMR, was the record owner of more than 5% of the
outstanding shares and certain unaffiliated insurance companies were record
owners of approximately 10% of the total outstanding shares of the
following funds:
