PORTFOLIO MANAGER'S COMMENTARY
Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust                         June 30, 1999
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
          Socially Responsive Portfolio
   JANET PRINDLE, PORTFOLIO MANAGER
   The  portfolio outperformed  its benchmark,  the S&P  500 Index*,  during the
period from the commencement of operations on February 18, 1999 through June 30,
1999. The S&P 500 rose 12.84%  while the portfolio gained 15.00%. The  portfolio
manager,   Janet  Prindle,   attributes  the  portfolio's   performance  to  her
value-oriented,  bottom-up  stock  selection  strategy,  which  positioned   the
portfolio to participate in companies that have benefited from a shift in market
leadership from growth to value stocks.
   Early  in the  reporting period,  many of the  stocks in  which the portfolio
invests lagged the market, including  holdings in the healthcare and  technology
sectors. On the other hand, the portfolio's consumer cyclicals, consumer staples
and  energy  holdings performed  well  during the  first  part of  the reporting
period.
   In April, it  became apparent  that economies in  the U.S.,  Japan, Asia  and
Latin  America were stronger than many  analysts expected. As a result, interest
rates began to rise amid investors' concerns that inflation pressures might  re-
emerge.  Because  higher  interest  rates  have  the  potential  to  erode stock
multiples, many  highly  valued growth  companies  lost value.  Instead,  equity
investors  turned their attention to attractively valued companies that had been
out-of-favor.
   Since the portfolio manager  had already constructed the  portfolio in a  way
that was designed to benefit from a value-stock recovery, performance was helped
by  investments  in  the basic  materials  sector,  such as  paper  and chemical
companies, consumer cyclicals and technology sectors.
   The portfolio received  positive contributions during  the value-stock  rally
from  individual holdings in a number  of different sectors. For example, Unisys
(2.9% of assets as of June  30, 1999) is in the  midst of a shift from  computer
hardware  manufacturing  to becoming  a  more service-oriented  computer systems
provider. New  senior  management has  helped  this company  make  a  successful
transition, and its valuation has improved as a result. At the same time, Unisys
has made great progress toward reducing harmful emissions from its plants. These
environmental  measures have  not only  made Unisys  a more  socially responsive
company, they have also produced significant cost savings.
   Computer and electronic instruments  manufacturer Hewlett Packard (3.0%)  has
also   combined  sound  business  management  with  social  responsibility.  The
company's stock  rose after  management  announced its  intention to  split  the
company  into two, a  move that is  expected to enhance  shareholder value. This
company has  consistently  ranked among  the  world's most  socially  responsive
companies  because of its  employee benefit programs,  diversity initiatives and
ability to engineer environmentally friendly products.
   On the other hand, some companies proved to be disappointments. For  example,
computer  manufacturer Compaq (1.3%) saw its  stock price plunge after reporting
disappointing earnings.  The  company  experienced subsequent  turmoil  when  it
terminated its CEO and alienated many of its distributors.
   Looking  forward, the portfolio manager has been encouraged by the broadening
of the stock market during the second quarter, which stands in stark contrast to
the  remarkably  narrow  markets  of  previous  quarters.  Because  Prindle  has
continued  to seek financially sound and socially responsive companies that have
good earnings and are selling  at attractive valuations, she remains  optimistic
about the portfolio's value-based investment strategy.

15.00%  was the  cumulative return  from February  18, 1999,  when the Portfolio
commenced investment operations through  June 30, 1999. Results  are shown on  a
total  return basis and include reinvestment  of all dividends and capital gains
distributions. Performance data quoted represents past performance, which is  no
guarantee  of future  results. The investment  return and principal  value of an
investment will fluctuate so that the  shares, when redeemed, may be worth  more
or  less than  their original cost.  Neuberger Berman  Management Inc. currently
absorbs certain expenses of  the Portfolio. Absent  this arrangement, the  total
returns  would  have been  less. The  performance  information does  not reflect
separate account and insurance company fees and expenses.

*The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged index generally considered representative  of
 stock  market activity. Please note  that indices do not  take into account any
 fees and expenses of  investing in the individual  securities that they  track,
 and  that  individuals cannot  invest  directly in  any  index. Data  about the
 performance of  this  index  are  prepared  or  obtained  by  Neuberger  Berman
 Management  Inc., and  include reinvestment of  all dividends  and capital gain
 distributions. The Portfolio  invests in  many securities not  included in  the
 above-described index.

 The  composition,  industries  and holdings  of  the Portfolio  are  subject to
 change.

 The investments for the Portfolio are managed by the same portfolio  manager(s)
 who  manage one or more other mutual  funds that have similar names, investment
 objectives and investment styles as the Portfolio. You should be aware that the
 Portfolio is likely to differ  from the other mutual  funds in size, cash  flow
 pattern  and  tax matters.  Accordingly, the  holdings  and performance  of the
 Portfolio can be expected to vary from those of the other mutual funds.

 Shares of the separate Portfolios of Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust
 are sold only through the currently effective prospectus and are not  available
 to  the general public. Shares  of the AMT Portfolios  may be purchased only by
 life insurance companies  to be  used with  their separate  accounts that  fund

Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust             June 30, 1999 (Unaudited)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
          Socially Responsive Portfolio

NOTE A -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
1) GENERAL: Socially Responsive Portfolio (the "Fund") is a separate operating
   series of Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust (the "Trust"), a
   Delaware business trust organized pursuant to a Trust Instrument dated May
   23, 1994. The Trust is currently comprised of eight separate operating series
   (the "Funds"). The Trust is registered as a diversified, open-end management
   investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
   "1940 Act"), and its shares are registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
   as amended (the "1933 Act"). The Fund had no operations until February 18,
   1999, other than matters relating to its organization and registration as a
   diversified, open-end management investment company under the 1940 Act, and
   registration of its shares under the 1933 Act. The trustees of the Trust may
   establish additional series or classes of shares without the approval of
   shareholders.
      The assets of each fund belong only to that fund, and the liabilities of
   each fund are borne solely by that fund and no other.
      The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing all of its
   net investable assets in AMT Socially Responsive Investments (the "Series"),
   a series of Advisers Managers Trust having the same investment objective and
   policies as the Fund. The value of the Fund's investment in the Series
   reflects the Fund's proportionate interest in the net assets of the Series
   (100% at June 30, 1999). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by
   the performance of the Series. The financial statements of the Series,
   including the Schedule of Investments, are included elsewhere in this report
   and should be read in conjunction with the Fund's financial statements.
2) PORTFOLIO VALUATION: The Fund records its investment in the Series at value.
   Investment securities held by the Series are valued as indicated in the notes
   following the Series' Schedule of Investments.
3) TAXES: The Funds are treated as separate entities for U.S. Federal income tax
   purposes. It is the intention of the Fund to qualify as a regulated
   investment company by complying with the provisions available to certain
   investment companies, as defined in applicable sections of the Internal
   Revenue Code, and to make distributions of investment company taxable income
   and net capital gains (after reduction for any amounts available for U.S.
   Federal income tax purposes as capital loss carryforwards) sufficient to
   relieve it from all, or substantially all, U.S. Federal income taxes.
   Accordingly, the Fund paid no U.S. Federal income taxes and no provision for
   U.S. Federal income taxes was required.
4) DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS: The Fund earns income, net of
   Series expenses, daily on its investment in the Series. Income dividends and
   distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are normally
   distributed in February. Income dividends and capital gain distributions to
   shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. To the extent the Fund's
   net realized capital gains, if any, can be offset by capital loss
   carryforwards, it is the policy of the Fund not to distribute such gains.
      The Fund distinguishes between dividends on a tax basis and a financial
   reporting basis and only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and
   profits are reported in the financial statements as a return of capital.
   Differences in the recognition or classification of income between the
   financial statements and tax earnings and profits which result in temporary
   over-distributions for financial statement purposes are classified as
   distributions in excess of net investment income or accumulated net realized
   gains.

5) EXPENSE ALLOCATION: Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to
   that fund. Expenses not directly attributed to a fund are allocated, on the
   basis of relative net assets, to each of the Funds.
6) OTHER: All net investment income and realized and unrealized capital gains
   and losses of the Series are allocated pro rata among the Fund and any other
   investors in the Series.

NOTE B -- ADMINISTRATION FEES, DISTRIBUTION ARRANGEMENTS, AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS
          WITH AFFILIATES:
   Fund shares are issued and redeemed in connection with investments in and
payments under certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance
policies issued through separate accounts of life insurance companies.
   The Fund retains Neuberger Berman Management Inc. ("Management") as its
administrator under an Administration Agreement ("Agreement"). Pursuant to this
Agreement the Fund pays Management an administration fee at the annual rate of
0.30% of the Fund's average daily net assets. The Fund indirectly pays for
investment management services through its investment in the Series (see Note B
of Notes to Financial Statements of the Series).
   Effective May 1, 1995, the trustees of the Trust adopted a non-fee
distribution plan for each series of the Trust.
   Management has voluntarily undertaken to reimburse the Fund through May 1,
2000, for its operating expenses plus its pro rata share of its Series'
operating expenses (including the fees payable to Management, but excluding
interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, and extraordinary expenses) ("Operating
Expenses") which exceed, in the aggregate, 1.50% per annum of the Fund's average
daily net assets (the "Expense Limitation"). For the period ended June 30, 1999,
such excess expenses amounted to $50,260. The Fund has agreed to repay
Management through December 31, 2001, for its excess Operating Expenses
previously reimbursed by Management, so long as its annual Operating Expenses
during that period do not exceed its Expense Limitation.
   All of the capital stock of Management is owned by individuals who are also
principals of Neuberger Berman, LLC ("Neuberger"), a member firm of The New York
Stock Exchange and sub-adviser to the Series. Several individuals who are
officers and/or trustees of the Trust are also principals of Neuberger and/or
officers and/or directors of Management.
   The Series has an expense offset arrangement in connection with its custodian
contract. The impact of this arrangement, reflected in the Statement of
Operations under the caption Expenses from Series, was a reduction of $274.

NOTE C -- INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS:
   During the period ended June 30, 1999, additions and reductions in the Fund's
investment in its Series amounted to $1,013,519 and $22,663, respectively.

NOTE D -- UNAUDITED FINANCIAL INFORMATION:
   The financial information included in this interim report is taken from the
records of the Fund without audit by independent auditors. Annual reports
contain audited financial statements.

1) The per share amounts and ratios which are shown reflect income and expenses,
   including the Fund's proportionate share of the Series' income and expenses.
2) The per share amounts which are shown have been computed based on the average
   number of shares outstanding during the fiscal period.
3) The date investment operations commenced.
4) Total return based on per share net asset value reflects the effects of
   changes in net asset value on the performance of the Fund during the fiscal
   period and assumes dividends and other distributions, if any, were
   reinvested. Results represent past performance and do not guarantee future
   results. Investment returns and principal may fluctuate and shares when
   redeemed may be worth more or less than original cost. Total return would
   have been lower if Management had not reimbursed certain expenses. The total
   return information shown does not reflect charges and other expenses that
   apply to the separate account or the related insurance policies, and the
   inclusion of these charges and other expenses would reduce the total return
   for the fiscal period shown.
5) Not annualized.
6) The Fund is required to calculate an expense ratio without taking into
   consideration any expense reductions related to expense offset arrangements.
7) Annualized.
8) After reimbursement of expenses by Management as described in Note B of Notes
   to Financial Statements. Had Management not undertaken such action the
   annualized ratio of net expenses to average daily net assets would have been:

   securities for which no sales were reported, unless otherwise noted, are
   valued at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices. The Series

   furnished by independent quotation services expressed in local currency
   values. Foreign security prices are translated from the local currency into
   U.S. dollars using current exchange rates. Short-term debt securities with
   less than 60 days until maturity may be valued at cost which, when combined
   with interest earned, approximates market value.
2) At cost, which approximates market value.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
          AMT Socially Responsive Investments

NOTE A -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
1) GENERAL: AMT Socially Responsive Investments (the "Series") is a separate
   operating series of Advisers Managers Trust ("Managers Trust"), a New York
   common law trust organized as of May 24, 1994. Managers Trust is currently
   comprised of eight separate operating series. Managers Trust is registered as
   a diversified, open-end management investment company under the Investment
   Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Series had no operations until February
   18, 1999, other than matters relating to its organization and registration as
   a series of Managers Trust.
      The assets of each series belong only to that series, and the liabilities
   of each series are borne solely by that series and no other.
2) PORTFOLIO VALUATION: Investment securities are valued as indicated in the
   notes following the Series' Schedule of Investments.
3) SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME: Securities transactions are
   recorded on a trade date basis. Dividend income is recorded on the
   ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign dividends, as soon as the Series
   becomes aware of the dividends. Non-cash dividends included in dividend
   income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities
   received. Interest income, including accretion of original issue discount,
   where applicable, and accretion of discount on short-term investments, is
   recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from securities
   transactions are recorded on the basis of identified cost.
4) TAXES: Managers Trust intends to comply with the requirements of the Internal
   Revenue Code. Each series of Managers Trust also intends to conduct its
   operations so that each of its investors will be able to qualify as a
   regulated investment company. Each series will be treated as a partnership
   for U.S. Federal income tax purposes and is therefore not subject to U.S.
   Federal income tax.
5) EXPENSE ALLOCATION: Expenses directly attributable to a series are charged to
   that series. Expenses not directly attributed to a series are allocated, on
   the basis of relative net assets, to each of the series of Managers Trust.
6) REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS: The Series may enter into repurchase agreements with
   institutions that the Series' investment manager has determined are
   creditworthy. Each repurchase agreement is recorded at cost. The Series
   requires that the securities purchased in a repurchase transaction be
   transferred to the custodian in a manner sufficient to enable the Series to
   obtain those securities in the event of a default under the repurchase
   agreement. The Series monitors, on a daily basis, the value of the securities
   transferred to ensure that their value, including accrued interest, is
   greater than amounts owed to the Series under each such repurchase agreement.

NOTE B -- MANAGEMENT FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES:
   The Series retains Neuberger Berman Management Inc. ("Management"), as its
investment manager under a Management Agreement. For such investment management
services, the Series pays Management a fee at the annual rate of 0.55% of the
first $250 million of the Series' average daily net assets, 0.525% of the next
$250 million, 0.50% of the next $250 million, 0.475% of the next $250 million,
0.45% of the next $500 million, and 0.425% of average daily net assets in excess
of $1.5 billion.

          AMT Socially Responsive Investments

   Since inception of the Series, Management has voluntarily undertaken to pay
certain expenses as an advance. These expenses will be repaid by the Series to
Management in the future, and are included under the caption Payable for Series
expenses in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
   All of the capital stock of Management is owned by individuals who are also
principals of Neuberger Berman, LLC ("Neuberger"), a member firm of The New York
Stock Exchange and sub-adviser to the Series. Neuberger is retained by
Management to furnish it with investment recommendations and research
information without added cost to the Series. Several individuals who are
officers and/or trustees of Managers Trust are also principals of Neuberger
and/or officers and/or directors of Management.
   The Series has an expense offset arrangement in connection with its custodian
contract. The impact of this arrangement, reflected in the Statement of
Operations under the caption Custodian fees, was a reduction of $274.

NOTE C -- SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS:
   During the period ended June 30, 1999, there were purchase and sale
transactions (excluding short-term securities) of $1,045,964 and $102,913,
respectively.
   During the period ended June 30, 1999, brokerage commissions on securities
transactions amounted to $1,331, of which Neuberger received $1,193, and other
brokers received $138.

NOTE D -- UNAUDITED FINANCIAL INFORMATION:
   The financial information included in this interim report is taken from the
records of the Series without audit by independent auditors. Annual reports
contain audited financial statements.
