To the Owners of NYLIAC Variable Life Policies:
I am pleased to send you the unaudited Semi-Annual Report for NYLIAC Vari-
able Life and New York Life MFA Series Fund, Inc. consisting of the Cash Man-
agement, Bond and Growth Equity Portfolios. The following is a description of
the current and anticipated economic and market conditions.
ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT
During the first six months of 1995, economic growth slowed sharply in a de-
layed response to seven Federal Reserve tightenings in monetary policy that
raised short-term interest rates by three full percentage points over a twelve
month period. Both short-term and long-term interest rates began trending
downward again as it became clear that the economy was slowing and inflation
pressures were subsiding. Bond yields are likely to decline further this year
before they rise again in 1996 as growth begins to pick up again.
Stock prices were up nearly 19 percent in the first half of the year due to
a combination of strong earning reports, declining interest rates, and a weak
dollar. This was the best equity performance since 1987, bringing the Dow
Jones and S&P 500* indexes to new record levels. As slow economic growth con-
tinues and the dollar rebounds from its historic lows against the yen and mark
(reducing the dollar value of repatriated earnings from abroad) equity invest-
ors may become disappointed with earnings growth. On the positive side, there
are lower bond yields this year and prospects for stronger earnings gains in
1996. Over the longer-term, the environment for equity investments continues
seemingly favorable, with prospects for an extended investment-led expansion,
a further improvement in inflation, and hopes of finally reducing the federal
budget deficit.
On the following pages, you will find reports on the performance of each of
the individual Portfolios of New York Life MFA Series Fund, Inc. that are
available in NYLIAC Variable Life.

MACKAY-SHIELDS FINANCIAL CORPORATION
ADVISER'S REPORT
The U.S. stock market posted its best first half performance since 1987 dur-
ing the six months ended June 30, 1995. Broad market averages enjoyed stellar
returns. The S&P 500* gained 20.21%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained
20.42%, and NASDAQ** gained 24.14% (all including dividends). Although the in-
dexes were hard to beat, U.S. stock mutual fund investors found few reasons to
complain. Stock funds enjoyed their best first quarter in two years, and their
best second quarter in two and one half years with stock funds as a group
posting first half average gains of 16.63%. In only six months, the average
stock fund investor reaped a year and a half of gains, based on the historical
returns on stocks of about 10% a year. This rebound vindicated those long-term
investors who stuck to their guns during a somewhat dismal 1994, when the av-
erage U.S. stock fund lost money. The bond market also staged an impressive
rally during the first half, with the average taxable bond fund gaining 9.11%.
This rebound was especially noteworthy in light of the fact that 1994 had been
the worst bond market in 20 years. With the dollar's slide arrested during the
second quarter, foreign stock funds generally bounced back in the second quar-
ter, after losing money during the first quarter.
One of the most intriguing aspects of the powerful U.S. stock and bond mar-
ket surges is that the mood of market participants was generally gloomy at the
beginning of the year. The markets had to contend with many concerns, such as
too weak an economy (good for interest rates, but bad for earnings in the
event of a recession), too strong an economy (more Fed tightening), overhang-
ing inventories, and/or some unforeseen surprising burst of inflation. In
fact, the economy weakened enough for rates to decline, but not enough to in-
duce a recession. Inflation remained subdued. Some companies did, in fact, ex-
perience an inventory correction, but improved inventory management and the
use of sophisticated technology helped to reduce inventory levels. Talk of a
Fed funds rate cut helped to spark the second quarter bond rally.
When bonds are booming, stocks generally follow. Falling interest rates pro-
pelled stocks to record levels. Earnings remained strong during the first half
of 1995. Market leadership can be summed up in one word: technology. Although
historically, technology stocks have tended to soar one year and plummet the
next, some believe that this run-up is different because of a productivity
revolution which is replacing people with technology. Structural changes are
occurring on a global scale and demand is expected to remain high for some
time to come. Although profit taking is bound to occur at some point, funda-
mentals appear to be keeping pace with multiple expansion.
With hindsight we believe we experienced a "growth recession" during the
first half of the year in sectors such as autos and housing. With the inven-
tory correction behind us, probably a steady economy ahead, and little evi-
dence of seemingly an alarming uptick in inflation, the stock market environ-
ment could remain relatively benign during the second half of the year. With
the Dow having
2
<PAGE>
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
gained 1,000 points in seven short months, the market is a little more expen-
sive than before; nevertheless, if earnings hold up, if inflation remains low,
and if interest rates do not back up sharply, the valuation level of the mar-
ket is not excessive by substantiate standards. Having said that, investors
should not expect the second half of the year to match the exceptionally
strong first half.
With respect to the fixed income markets, it appears that there may be a
soft landing, which suggests that the good news is already discounted in bond
prices. The risk to the bond market is an increase in economic growth which we
expect during the second half, sparked by a seasonal expansion of exports and
auto sales. With inventories now trimmed, housing and auto sales may possibly
accelerate. Moreover, since production levels were cut much more sharply than
in the past during the first half slowdown, any increase in demand should flow
through fairly quickly to increased production. Nevertheless, the recent Fed
easing took the market by storm, with considerable rallies in short-term and
long-term maturities. Many analysts point out that there has never been a sin-
gle Fed move in one direction not followed by more actions. Future moves will
depend upon economic activity, but for now, the bond markets are currently
discounting more ease. While the strong productivity gains harnessed during
this cycle may preclude the possibility of a major resurgence in inflation,
some risk of a cyclical rise cannot be ruled out later in the year.

NEW YORK LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
ADVISER'S REPORT
1995 has produced positive results for investors. The fixed income and stock
market generated double digit returns; the stock market in particular made and
continues to make record highs. Just as last year's market malaise resulted
from a move by the Federal Reserve to tighten the monetary environment, this
year's robust growth resulted from the Fed's neutrality in the face of an ap-
parent slowdown in economic growth. While the Fed did not act to lower rates
until after the end of the first half, the market anticipated the loosening
and rates fell throughout the quarter. This drop in rates, combined with con-
tinued corporate profit growth, provided significant support to the stock mar-
ket.
Economic growth continues to be led by capital investment rather than con-
sumer spending, allowing inflationary pressures to remain modest. The soft
landing of the economy appears real and investors are beginning to look beyond
it to accelerated growth in 1996. The risk to investors in this scenario is
that ultimately inflationary pressures will pick up, interest rates will in-
crease, and stock market valuations will be challenged. Our view is that the
near-term outlook remains favorable to investors as the economy should con-
tinue to provide a positive backdrop for equity valuations.
Concerns have been raised about stock market valuations with earnings and
profit margins in the fifth year of expansion. We see that the potential for
powerful profit growth with modest sales increases, as corporations continue
to leverage their revenue growth with very tight expense structures, is likely
for many industries, particularly late cycle industrials and capital goods
manufacturers. The technology sector should continue to enjoy high levels of
sales and earnings growth combined with expanding valuations. Other sectors,
such as financials, are in the midst of powerful consolidation trends and
looking forward, we believe can provide the opportunity for yielding impres-
sive returns for investors.
With respect to the bond market, we envision prices remaining within a
fairly narrow trading range over the near-term. While the Fed recently reduced
rates slightly, it is difficult to determine when the next change in rates
will occur. In any event, the market has priced the lower rates into the mar-
ket, dampening any expectation of large capital gains.
Clearly, with the stock market up over 20% for the first six months of the
year, and the bond market's impressive performance, investors should pause and
re-evaluate their strategies. We have done so, and remain positive. We believe
our approach can provide the opportunity for continued good results. We will,
though, continue to watch the fundamentals very carefully as the year pro-
gresses and alter our outlook and strategies as appropriate.

CASH MANAGEMENT PORTFOLIO
The money markets were fairly stable during the first six months as the Fed-
eral Reserve remained on hold and short rates remained pegged to the Federal
Funds rate. By the end of the second quarter, longer maturities anticipated an
easing Federal Reserve and traded below three month yields. During the first
half of 1995, the Portfolio returned 2.82%* vs. 2.73% for the average Lipper**
money market fund.

BOND PORTFOLIO
The Bond Portfolio registered a double digit return of +11.25%* in the first
half of 1995. This compares to a return of +11.66% for our benchmark index,
the Merrill Lynch Corporate and Government Master Index.**
1995 began with investors positioned for a continuation of 1994's bear mar-
ket sell off. As signs of economic weakness began to appear, the market
quickly reversed course and rallied dramatically. Investors began to antici-
pate Federal Reserve easing and this fueled the market's momentum. In the
first six months of the year the yield on the five and ten year US Treasury
securities decreased by 186 and 162 basis points respectively. We began the
year positioned for a negative bond market while still overweighted in corpo-
rate securities. This position caused us to underperform our benchmark early
in the year. We have since restructured our portfolio, where we continue to
overweight corporate securities and have lengthened the portfolio's duration.
These moves have contributed to our total return performance in the second
quarter.
Looking ahead, we expect moderate economic growth and reduced interest rate
volatility in the second half of the year. We expect short-term corporate
bonds to outperform Treasuries and will continue to overweight this sector. We
will adjust the portfolio over the second half of the year opportunistically,
seeking to outperform the market.

GROWTH EQUITY PORTFOLIO
The Growth Equity Portfolio generated strong performance for the six-month
period ended June 30, 1995. While impressive in absolute terms, the Portfolio
lagged the average growth stock fund as ranked by Lipper Analytical Services*
and the S&P 500**. Though the Portfolio benefitted in the first half of the
year from its stock selection in technology issues and exposure to later cycle
industrials and capital goods companies, the Portfolio's relative performance
was adversely affected by its underweighting of the technology and financial
sectors, which led the market during this period.
The equity market exceeded the expectations of most investors in the first
half of the year primarily because of the sharp drop in interest rates and ro-
bust corporate earnings. The fall in bond yields caused relative equity valua-
tions to increase because of the relationship between stock prices and inter-
est rates. The supply/demand environment for equities also improved due to
continued strong demand by equity mutual funds, tight supply caused by an in-
creased level of merger and acquisition activity, an increased number of share
repurchase programs and a light underwriting calendar.
Looking forward, we continue to see favorable fundamentals in the equity
market. Current valuation levels are not excessive by historical standards and
the continued benign interest rate and inflation environment should offer com-
panies the opportunity for strong earnings growth, though most likely at a
less torrid pace than we saw in 1994 and the first half of this year. Even as
corporate earnings growth moderates, the low interest rate environment should
cause equity valuations to expand throughout the market generally, and for es-
tablished growth companies in particular.
Our primary strategy of investing in mid-to-large capitalization growth
stocks, along with the deployment of the Portfolio's cash, should result in an
improvement of our relative performance as the year progresses.

NOTES TO
FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1--Organization and Business:
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
New York Life MFA Series Fund, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under
Maryland law on June 3, 1983. The Company is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, ("Investment Company Act") as an open-end
diversified management investment company. Cash Management Portfolio, which
commenced operations on January 29, 1993, and Bond and Growth Equity
Portfolios, which commenced operations on January 23, 1984, (the "Funds") are
separate series of the Company. Shares of the Funds are currently offered only
to New York Life Insurance and Annuity Corporation ("NYLIAC"), a wholly owned
subsidiary of New York Life Insurance Company ("New York Life"). NYLIAC
allocates shares of the Funds to, among others, New York Life Insurance and
Annuity Corporation's MFA Separate Account I, MFA Separate Account II and VLI
Separate Account ("Separate Accounts", collectively). The MFA Separate
Accounts are used to fund multi-funded retirement annuity policies and the VLI
Separate Account is used to fund variable life insurance policies issued by
NYLIAC.
Effective May 2, 1994, the name of the New York Life MFA Series Fund, Inc.
Common Stock Portfolio changed to New York Life MFA Series Fund, Inc. Growth
Equity Portfolio.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 2--Significant Accounting Policies:
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Company:
(A)
VALUATION OF FUND SHARES. The net asset value per share of each Fund is
calculated on every day the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading,
except the day after Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve. Net asset value per share
is calculated as of the regular close of the New York Stock Exchange (normally
4:00 P.M., Eastern time) for each Fund by dividing the current market value
(amortized cost, in the case of Cash Management Portfolio) of the Fund's total
assets, less liabilities, by the total number of outstanding shares of that
Fund.
(B)
SECURITIES VALUATION. Portfolio securities of Cash Management Portfolio are
valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. This method
involves initially valuing an instrument at its cost and thereafter amortizing
the premium or accreting the discount to income over the life of the security.
Securities of each of the other Funds are stated at value determined (a) by
appraising common and preferred stocks which are traded on the New York Stock
Exchange at the last sale price on that day or, if no sale occurs, at the mean
between the closing bid and asked prices, (b) by appraising common and
preferred stocks traded on other United States national securities exchanges
or foreign securities exchanges as nearly as possible in the manner described
in (a) by reference to its principal exchange, including the National
Association of Securities Dealers National Market System, (c) by appraising
over-the-counter securities quoted on the National Association
32
<PAGE>
NEW YORK LIFE
MFA SERIES FUND, INC.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
of Securities Dealers NASDAQ system (but not listed on the National Market
System) at the bid price supplied through such system, (d) by appraising over-
the-counter securities not quoted on the NASDAQ system and securities listed
or traded on certain foreign exchanges whose operations are similar to the
U.S. over-the-counter market, at prices supplied by the pricing agent or
brokers selected by the Adviser if these prices are deemed to be
representative of market values at the regular close of business of the New
York Stock Exchange, (e) by appraising debt securities at prices supplied by a
pricing agent, selected by the Adviser, whose prices reflect broker/dealer
supplied valuations and electronic data processing techniques if those prices
are deemed by the Adviser to be representative of market values at the regular
close of business of the New York Stock Exchange, (f) by appraising options
and futures contracts at the last sale price on the market where such options
or futures contracts are principally traded, and (g) by appraising all other
securities and other assets, including debt securities for which prices are
supplied by a pricing agent but are not deemed by the Adviser to be
representative of market values, but excluding money market instruments with a
remaining maturity of sixty days or less and including restricted securities
and securities for which no market quotations are available, at fair value in
accordance with procedures approved by and determined in good faith by the
Directors, although the actual calculations may be done by others. Short-term
securities which mature in more than 60 days are valued at current market
quotations. Short-term securities which mature in 60 days or less are valued
at amortized cost if their term to maturity at purchase was 60 days or less,
or by amortizing their value on the 61st day prior to maturity if their
original term to maturity at purchase exceeded 60 days.
Events affecting the values of the portfolio securities that occur between
the time their prices are determined, generally on foreign exchanges and over-
the-counter markets, and the regular close of the New York Stock Exchange will
not be reflected in the Funds' calculations of net asset values unless the
Adviser believes that the particular event would materially affect net asset
value, in which case an adjustment would be made.
(C)
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. At the time the Funds enter into a repurchase
agreement, the value of the underlying security, including accrued interest,
will be equal to or exceed the value of the repurchase agreement and, in the
case of repurchase agreements exceeding one day, the value of the underlying
security, including accrued interest, is required during the term of the
agreement to be equal to or exceed the value of the repurchase agreement. The
underlying securities for all repurchase agreements are held in an account of
the respective Funds' custodian. In the case of repurchase agreements
exceeding one day, the market value of the underlying securities are monitored
by pricing them daily.
(D)
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME. The Company records security
transactions on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on security
transactions are determined using the identified cost method and include gains
and losses from repayments of principal on mortgage backed securities.
Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income is
accrued daily. Discounts on securities purchased for all Funds are accreted on
the constant yield method over the life of the respective securities or, if
shorter, over the period to the first date of call.

FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(E)
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. Each of the Funds is treated as a separate entity for
Federal income tax purposes. The Company's policy is to comply with the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
companies and to distribute all of the taxable income to the shareholders of
each Fund within the allowable time limits. Therefore, no Federal income tax
provision is required.
Investment income received by a Fund from foreign sources may be subject to
foreign income taxes withheld at the source.
(F)
DIVIDENDS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. For
Cash Management Portfolio, dividends are declared daily and paid monthly. Each
of the other Funds intends to declare and pay, as a dividend, substantially
all of their net investment income and net realized gains no less frequently
than once a year.
Income and capital gain dividends are determined in accordance with income
tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles.
(G)
ORGANIZATION COSTS. Costs incurred in connection with the initial organization
and registration of a Portfolio of the Company are amortized over 60 months
beginning with the commencement of operations of the respective Portfolio.
Organization costs for Cash Management Portfolio, paid by, and reimbursable
to, NYLIAC, aggregated approximately $50,700. Such costs are being amortized
beginning with the commencement of operations of the Portfolio on January 29,
1993. In the event that any of the initial shares purchased by NYLIAC are
redeemed, proceeds of such redemption will be reduced by the proportionate
amount of the unamortized deferred organizational expenses which the number of
shares redeemed bears to the total number of initial shares purchased. All of
the initial shares purchased by NYLIAC in Cash Management Portfolio were
redeemed on February 21, 1995. (Also see Note 7 for further discussion of this
redemption).
(H)
EXPENSES. Expenses with respect to the Company are allocated in proportion to
the net assets of the respective Funds when the expenses are incurred except
where allocations of direct expenses can otherwise fairly be made.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 3--Fees and Related Party Policies:
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

carryforwards are used to offset future capital gains, it is probable that the
