To Our Shareholders
This report contains a special performance review for each fund other than the
Cash Management Fund. We are very pleased with the aggregate performance of the
Investment Series Funds and our goal is to continue to reward shareholders with
high quality investment performance over time. One of the best ways to measure
our progress toward this goal is to compare the performance of our funds with
like funds. In the following pages, you can see how each of the Salomon Brothers
Investment Series Funds (other than Cash Management Fund and the Asia Growth
Fund) ranks within a universe of similar funds as compiled by Lipper Analytical
Services, a leading mutual fund rating service. (See pp. 3, 5, 7, 9, 13, 15 and
17.)
FINANCIAL MARKET RETURNS
During the first half of 1996 the stock market, as portrayed by the S&P 500
returned 10.1%. While off the pace of 1995, market performance was still strong.
The high grade bond markets (corporates, mortgages and governments) declined
1.3% as measured by the Salomon Brothers Broad Investment Grade Index. The
municipal bond market fared better than their high grade taxable counterparts
declining 0.5% as measured by the Lehman Municipal Bond Index. High yield and
emerging markets debt had positive performances, up 2.9% as measured by the
Salomon Brothers High Yield Market Index and 14.0% as measured by the Salomon
Brothers Brady Bond Index, respectively. Check your fund's individual
performance on the following pages.
THE ECONOMY
The current economic expansion is now 61 months old. This is the third longest
expansion in the post war era. At this point in the economic expansion, with a
low rate of unemployment at 5.3%, financial markets are generally fearful of
signs that inflation will begin to rise. During the first six months of 1996,
the rise of energy prices, grain prices and wages caused the long government
bond market to react quite poorly with interest rates rising from 6% to 7 1/4%.
However, the Federal Reserve did not tighten credit and the long bond market
calmed somewhat by the end of June.
Corporate profits, while slowing somewhat from the hectic expansion of 1994 and
1995, continued to show above average growth. Some of the more cyclical areas of
the economy such as paper, chemicals, metals and technology are showing lower
profitability. Other areas such as energy, financial services, retail and real
estate showed very strong growth in profitability. The stock market focused on
profits and rose despite the negative influence of the higher interest rates.
Likewise, the high yield bond market prospered as buoyant profits improved
corporate credit.
Looking ahead to the second half of 1996, we believe the economy will moderate
its growth rate. However, due to the advanced age of the economic cycle,
investors and the 'Fed' could react badly to any upward revisions in economic
growth or inflation rates. As a result any further acceleration in economic
activity is likely to be met by an increase in market volatility.
STRATEGY
The stock market has had a tremendous run up in price the last two years due to
strong profitability and preference among investors for stocks as opposed to
debt instruments. With both the economic and stock market cycles well advanced,
we are becoming risk averse and selective in our investment process. There has
been heavy speculation in many unseasoned areas and dividend yields are very
low, a situation in which shortfalls from expectations can be severely punished.
The debt markets have shown unusually disparate performance to date in 1996. The
high grade debt market is fearful of rising inflation typical of late stages of
economic cycles. Thus, we have been limiting our exposure to the risk of rising
interest rates and, have been more heavily weighting mortgage-backed and
corporate securities. The high yield market is benefiting from high earnings
levels which tends to improve the perception of credit ratings. Emerging markets
debt has experienced very positive returns as growth accelerates in emerging
economies after the credit crisis of 1993 and 1994.
OUR NEWEST ADDITION
Recognizing the need to offer our clients more diversified opportunities outside
the U.S., a new portfolio, the Asia Growth Fund, was added to the Salomon
Brothers Investment Series on April 29, 1996. We are excited by the addition of
this unique investment opportunity to the Salomon Brothers Investment Series and
we encourage you to read the market overview on page 10 provided by Mr.
Guarnieri, portfolio manager of this Fund.
At Salomon Brothers Asset Management Inc, we appreciate the confidence you have
shown in our family of funds and we intend to do everything we can to earn your
trust in the future. If you have any questions about the Salomon Brothers
Investment Series, or if you'd like a prospectus containing more information on

Peter J. Wilby
MEET YOUR FUND MANAGER
Peter J. Wilby, Managing Director and Portfolio Manager at
Salomon Brothers Asset Management Inc, has 13 years of
experience managing high yield and emerging market debt
securities. Mr. Wilby is primarily responsible for day-to-day
Fund management.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
To maximize current income by investing primarily in a
diversified portfolio of high yield, fixed income securities
rated in medium or lower categories. As a secondary
objective, the Fund seeks capital appreciation.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
Under normal market conditions, the Fund intends to invest at least 65% of
its assets in securities rated Baa or lower by Moody's Investors Services,
Inc., or those rated BBB or lower by Standard & Poor's Corporation. A key
component of the overall strategy is to seek to determine the optimal asset
allocation between domestic high yield bonds and foreign fixed income
securities such as Brady Bonds and lower-rated sovereign debt.
MARKET REVIEW
The High Yield Bond Fund continues to complement its portfolio by including
exposure to emerging markets debt. This allocation, carefully monitored and
re-evaluated as market conditions change, is a leading contributor to the
strong relative performance of the High Yield Bond Fund versus other high
current yield funds.
In the higher-yielding sectors during the past several months, emerging debt
markets were focused on the presidential election in Russia. As expected
Boris Yeltsin, the pro-reform, free market candidate was re-elected,
continuing the trend of positive political developments in emerging market
countries. In other areas, fundamental economic developments
have been very positive in Argentina and Mexico, as both
countries struggle to recover from deep recessions.
[GRAPH]
In the U.S. corporate high-yield sector, spreads have
tightened slightly over Treasuries, and mutual fund inflows
have been high. The market has been stable, with heavy new
issue activity (including refinancings) and we expect yield
spreads over Treasuries to remain near current levels. Our
fundamental outlook is unchanged and we continue to believe
that selective buying is the best approach in this market.

David Scott, Director and Portfolio Manager at our London
affliate, Salomon Brothers Asset Management Limited, has 13
years of experience managing fixed income securities. Mr.
Scott is responsible for day to day management of certain
portions of the Fund's portfolio.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
To seek a high level of current income. As a secondary
objective, the Fund seeks capital appreciation.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
The Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing in a globally diverse
portfolio of fixed income instruments and by giving the investment manager
broad discretion to deploy the Fund's assets among certain segments of the
fixed-income market that the investment manager believes
will contribute to the achievement of the Fund's objectives.
Assets of the Strategic Bond Fund may be deployed among
various sectors of the global fixed income market, depending
on the portfolio managers' analyses of current economic and
market conditions and the relative risks and opportunities
presented in various market segments.
MARKET REVIEW
Our investment process -- which is focused on identifying
and capturing relative value between global fixed income
markets -- led us to maintain the Fund's weightings
throughout the first half of 1996, with approximately
22% of the portfolio invested in emerging market debt and
48% invested in high yield securities. This allocation
generated highly favorable investment results, as the Fund
ranked near the top compared with other multi-sector bond
funds.
[GRAPH]
Credit quality in the high yield bond market generally
continues to improve, as many U.S. corporations are using
higher earnings to pay down debt and strengthen their
balance sheets. We also continue to take a positive view of
opportunities in the emerging market debt sector, with Latin
America looking particularly attractive relative to other
regions. Exposure to Eastern European debt was reduced at
the start of the second quarter to reap profits from a strong performance
earlier in the year.
The Fund also realized gains in the non-U.S. investment grade sector. A key
move here saw a shift out of Canadian government bonds, which had rallied
relative to U.S. Treasuries as the Canadian government took steps to reduce
budget deficits at both the federal and provincial levels.

SALOMON BROTHERS INVESTMENT SERIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Another strategy contributing to the Fund's strong performance was
underweighting investment grade bonds during the first half of 1996. These
issues were subject to troublesome volatility through the period, as interest
rates spiked up periodically on the release of strong monthly employment
reports. Our highly-defensive 2% position in investment grade debt as of June
30, 1996 indicates our continued wariness toward this sector of the bond
market.
One of the strongest arguments for a global bond fund is the ability to
rotate in or out of fixed-income sectors as opportunities arise to enhance
performance or avoid risk. As we move into the second half of 1996, we intend
to keep searching the globe for attractive fixed income investments.

Allan R. White
MEET YOUR FUND MANAGER
Allan R. White, Managing Director and Portfolio Manager at
Salomon Brothers Asset Management Inc, has 15 years of
experience managing equity, convertible and fixed income
securities. Mr. White is primarily responsible for day-to-day
Fund management.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
Long-term growth of capital. Current income is a secondary
objective.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
The Fund invests primarily in common stocks listed on the New York Stock
Exchange and other U.S. exchanges. The portfolio manager maintains a
long-term investment focus. While we believe that economic forecasting has a
role to play in helping us identify promising stocks, we devote most of our
resources to identifying attractive companies rather than trying to predict
market trends. Our stock selection process continues to be aimed at finding
companies with strong management, accelerating operating trends, healthy
balance sheets and strong competitive positions.
MARKET REVIEW
Over the last eighteen months the equity markets have benefited from a
confluence of positive factors. Inflation has been benign, economic growth
has been moderate and earnings growth has been very strong. The Investors
Fund's strong relative performance in the first half of 1996 came from
security selection, and to a lesser degree, favorable sector weightings.
Large positions aiding performance included Sears, Roebuck, Praxair, Tyco
International and Stop & Shop Companies.
During the second half of the year, we believe that markets may be
characterized by more volatility than we have seen the last eighteen months.
Steady earnings growth is highly valued in uncertain market environments. As
a result, we have built up our positions in the medical sector. Operating
trends for companies such as SmithKline Beecham,
Rhone-Poulenc Rorer and Columbia/HCA Healthcare are very
favorable. We continue to search for undervalued stocks and
have begun selectively to buy high quality technology
[GRAPH] stocks, after their recent declines.

Richard Dahlberg
MEET YOUR FUND MANAGER
Richard E. Dahlberg, Managing Director and Portfolio Manager
at Salomon Brothers Asset Management Inc, has 36 years of
experience managing equity securities. Mr. Dahlberg is
primarily responsible for day-to-day Fund management.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
The Fund seeks to obtain above average income compared to a
portfolio that invests only in stocks. The Fund's secondary
objective is to seek growth of capital and income. The Fund
seeks to achieve its objectives by investing in a broad
variety of securities including equities, fixed income securities and short
term obligations.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
The Fund seeks to produce substantial current income and provide for long
term growth of capital and income. The Fund invests primarily in large
capitalization stocks that are paying dividends greater than the Standard &
Poor's 500 Index average. Fixed income assets are allocated among securities
believed capable of achieving equity like returns, such as high yield bonds
and convertible securities as well as in investment grade bonds.
MARKET REVIEW
A relative newcomer to the Salomon Brothers Investment Series, the Total
Return Fund has generated impressive relative returns since inception in
September 1995. This performance was aided during the first half of 1996 by
emphasis on financial services and energy stocks and by
avoiding areas where stocks appear to be over-priced, such
as technology stocks. The emphasis on high yield bonds as
opposed to government bonds also contributed to both income
and performance.
After a long bull market, many U.S. corporations are now at
lofty valuations. We believe that long-term investment value
lies with companies that serve developing countries, where
growth rates far exceed those of the developed nations. Two
beneficiaries of this trend, Eastman Kodak and Citicorp,
generate an ever growing portion of their revenue from
non-U.S. markets.
The energy sector is also benefiting from the rising
consumption of developing countries and showing significant
potential after 15 years of lackluster relative performance.
During the first half of 1996, the Fund held a number of
energy issues, including Dresser Industries, Suncor and
Williams Cos. We feel that prices for energy stocks do not
fully reflect their long-term potential and we will continue
to look for opportunities in this area.
[GRAPH]
The Fund also benefited from investments in a number of real
estate investment trusts (REIT), which currently offer high
current yields, plus the potential for future dividend growth. Like energy
stocks, we believe REITs offer good value today and could be emerging from
years of under-performance. With electric utilities currently less attractive
due to uncertainty in the regulatory environment, we look to REITs to provide
a healthy portion of
PAGE 8
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
SALOMON BROTHERS INVESTMENT SERIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
the monthly income component investors expect from the Salomon Brothers Total
Return Fund.
Our wariness toward the technology sector significantly helped our
performance versus the stock market during the first half of 1996. A year
ago, we anticipated price declines of up to 50% in some technology stocks and
many issues have already exceeded this plunge in value. Consequently, there
may be an opportunity to buy technology issues at bargain prices over the
next 6-12 months. On the bond side of the portfolio, the Fund's emphasis on
higher yielding corporate debt greatly enhanced performance.
As is generally the case after periods of speculation in the market, we
believe that investors will be attracted to large, financially-sound
companies for their stability, yield and dividend growth potential. We will
continue to focus on the stocks of well-run, well-capitalized companies as
the prices become attractive.

MEET YOUR FUND MANAGER
Giampaolo G. Guarnieri, Director, Portfolio Manager and
Co-Chief of Salomon Brothers Asset Management Asia Pacific
Limited (SBAM AP), has 10 years of experience managing equity
securities. SBAM AP is the Hong Kong affiliate of Salomon
Brothers Asset Management Inc and serves as a sub-advisor to
the Fund. Mr. Guarnieri is primarily responsible for day-to-
day Fund management.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
Long-term capital appreciation.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
The Fund invests primarily in the equity and equity-related securities of
companies located in developing nations of the Pacific Rim, with the
exception of Japan. Areas considered for investment include, but are not
limited to, China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Korea, Malaysia, the Philippines,
Singapore and Thailand. In seeking to capture high long-term returns with
reduced volatility, Fund managers will allocate assets among countries and
industries believed most likely to benefit from regional
economic trends.
MARKET REVIEW
The goal of our Asia Pacific equity investment process is to
capture the region's high potential returns while actively
managing volatility by spreading risk over a number of
countries, industries and companies. Our approach to Asian
markets is as follows. First, we evaluate the region's
economy, sectors and securities. We then apply proprietary
risk management and asset allocation tools in seeking to
reduce overall portfolio volatility.
Several Pacific rim countries currently offer excellent
investment opportunities for long-term equity investors. The
overall pace of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth in Asia
(excluding Japan) continues to be strong and, we believe,
the average growth rate could exceed 7% for the next few
years. Earnings-per-share growth for Pacific rim stocks has
also been quite impressive and we believe this figure could
average 15% going forward. Despite these growth rates,
market valuations remain attractive, especially in Hong
Kong, where equities may trade at 12 times estimated 1996
earnings.
[GRAPH]
Long-term factors driving future growth include
infrastructure improvements, which are leading to greater
cross-border trade, intra-regional investment flows and
growing consumerism, as economic growth starts to penetrate
formerly dormant areas of Asia. As more and more Pacific rim
companies come to the equity markets for their
capital-raising needs, investors are being offered a rapidly
expanding menu of investment opportunities.

Salomon Brothers Asset Management Inc, has 16 years of
experience managing fixed income securities. Mr. Guterman is
primarily responsible for day-to-day Fund management.
Roger Lavan, Director and Portfolio Manager at Salomon
Brothers Asset Management Inc, has 9 years of experience
managing fixed income securities. Mr. Lavan assists in the

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
To obtain a high level of current income.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
Under normal market conditions the Fund invests 100% of its net assets in
debt obligations and mortgage-backed securities issued by or guaranteed by
the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities. The Fund expects to
maintain an average portfolio duration of three to five years.
MARKET REVIEW
During the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Fund continued to overweight
mortgage-backed securities while underweighting U.S. Treasuries. In the near
term, we believe mortgage-backed securities will continue to be attractive,
as higher interest rates have reduced the incentive for homeowners to
refinance their mortgages. Barring a significant market rally, we believe
mortgage-backed securities are likely to perform well in the coming months
and will be favored over Treasuries in the Fund.
In the first half, economic data -- such as home sales, the unemployment
rate, and average hourly earnings -- pointed towards relatively strong
economic growth with the possibility of higher levels of inflation. To
protect the Fund from higher interest rates, a move to a more defensive
stance was taken early in the second quarter. The Fund's
duration -- which measures the sensitivity of the Fund's
holdings to interest rate changes -- was shortened to
approximately 2.5 years, down from 4.0 years at the end of
1995.
In an effort to offset the lower average duration from
significantly reducing the Fund's yield, U.S. Treasury
securities were swapped into higher-yielding agency mortgage
pass-through securities. This move was also designed to
protect the Fund should the Federal Reserve raise interest
[GRAPH] rates during the second half of 1996. Looking forward, we
expect economic growth to slow over the coming months,
permitting the Fund to extend into longer maturity issues
in pursuit of higher yields.

SALOMON BROTHERS NATIONAL INTERMEDIATE MUNICIPAL FUND
[PHOTO]
Marybeth Whyte
MEET YOUR FUND MANAGER
Marybeth Whyte, Director and Portfolio Manager at Salomon
Brothers Asset Management Inc, has 13 years of experience
managing municipal securities. Ms. Whyte is primarily
responsible for day-to-day Fund management.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
To achieve a high level of current income exempt from regular
federal income taxes. All or a portion of the Fund's
dividends paid in respect to its shares may be subject to the
federal alternative minimum tax.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
Under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund's net assets will be
invested in municipal obligations, the interest on which is exempt from
regular federal income tax.
MARKET REVIEW
Our approach to the municipal bond market focuses on benefiting from
long-term fundamentals rather than short-term market trends. Having witnessed
relatively high levels of volatility during the past six months, we feel it
is more important than ever to adhere to this approach, which emphasizes
rigorous credit analysis and careful sector selection.
In the first six months of 1996, robust demand from individual investors and
insurance companies helped municipal bonds outperform taxable fixed-income
securities. Even though stronger-than-expected economic data in April and May
caused bond prices to falter, losses in the municipal sector were tempered
due to strong supply/demand technicals. Individual investors
were drawn to municipal bonds as long-term yields exceeded
6.0%, the stock market became more volatile and fear of a
flat tax lessened. On the institutional side, demand from
property and casualty insurance companies continued due to
their sustained profitability. Municipals gathered
additional strength as much of the estimated $25 billion
from June maturities, redemptions and coupon payments was
reinvested in the municipal market in a period of light new
issue supply.
[GRAPH]
In coming months, anticipated cash from municipal coupon
payments, maturities and redemptions, combined with an
expected light new issue calendar should enable municipals
to continue their favorable technical position.

SALOMON BROTHERS NEW YORK MUNICIPAL BOND FUND
MEET YOUR FUND MANAGER
Marybeth Whyte, Director and Portfolio Manager at Salomon Brothers Asset
Management Inc, has 13 years of experience managing municipal securities. Ms.
Whyte is primarily responsible for day-to-day Fund management.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
To achieve a high level of current income exempt from regular federal income
taxes and New York State and New York City personal income taxes, consistent
with the preservation of capital.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest at least 65% of its net
assets in obligations the interest on which is exempt from personal income
taxes of New York State and New York City, and at least 80% of its net assets
in obligations the interest on which is exempt from regular federal income
taxes. All or a portion of the Fund's dividends paid in respect to its shares
may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax.
MARKET REVIEW
The New York municipal market performed in line with national municipal bonds
during the first half of 1996. Municipals, including New York tax-exempts,
outpaced their taxable counterparts during this time period despite a high
level of volatility. This better relative performance was attributable to a
favorable supply/demand imbalance in the municipal market. Furthermore, this
imbalance was magnified in the New York arena, which witnessed a significant
decline in new issue supply due to the inability of the state's legislature
to pass a timely budget.
For the first six months of the year, individual investors as well as
property and casualty insurance companies were dominant buyers in the
municipal market. Individual investors were enticed by the attractive nominal
yields afforded in the marketplace. In addition, the stock market's
heightened volatility caused some individuals to increase
their asset allocation toward municipals. Property and
casualty insurance companies remain a market stalwart due to
their continued profitability. The New York municipal market
benefited from both scenarios.
Now that the New York State budget is in place we anticipate
an increase in new issues for the Empire State. Nonetheless,
we remain optimistic that the positive technicals in the
[GRAPH] municipal market will continue in the coming months.

`D' Return does not reflect the deduction of any sales charge.
`D' `D' Lipper Analytical Services, an industry recognized analysis company,
calculates rankings based on total return performance of funds
within each category. Lipper rankings change monthly and do not
reflect the effects of sales charges. Accordingly, the results in
this table for the Class A, Class B and Class C shares of each Fund
do not reflect the effect of the sales charges applicable to each
Class, which are described in the footnotes below. Lipper
performance results represent changes in net asset value, adjusted
to reflect reinvestment of dividends and capital gains.Class A
shares are subject to an annual 12b-1 service fee of .25% of the
value of the average daily net assets. Class B and Class C shares
are subject to an annual 12b-1 service and distribution fee of
1.00%. Class O shares are not subject to an annual 12b-1 fee.
* Maximum sales charge for Class A shares is 4.75% of the public offering
price. Class A shares bear ongoing annual 12b-1 service fee of .25%.
** Maximum contingent deferred sales charge for Class B and Class C shares
are 5% and 1%, respectively, and is reduced to 0% after 6 years and 1
year, respectively. Class B and Class C shares are subject to annual
12b-1 service and distribution fees in an aggregate amount of 1.00%.
*** Each Fund offers Class O shares to existing shareholders of Class O
shares in the Investment Series. Class O shares do not have initial or
contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing distribution and service
fees.
[c] Commencement of investment operations.
GENERAL PERFORMANCE AND RANKING NOTES
Average annual total returns are based on changes in net asset value and
assume the reinvestment of all dividends and/or capital gains distributions
in additional shares with and without the effect of the maximum sales charge
(Class A) and the contingent deferred sales charge (Class B and C). The
average annual return for a period less than a year has not been annualized.
Past performance does not guarantee future results. Investment return and
principal value fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be
worth more or less than their original cost. Returns reflect a voluntary
expense cap, (except for Investors Fund) imposed by SBAM to limit total Fund
operating expenses. Absent this expense cap, Fund expenses would be higher
and returns lower. As a result, the expense caps had a material effect on the
ranking of each Class of each Fund in its relevant Lipper category.

SALOMON BROTHERS INVESTMENT SERIES
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Salomon Brothers Investment Series (the 'Investment Series') consists of
certain portfolios of the Salomon Brothers Series Funds Inc (the 'Series
Funds'), as indicated below, and the Salomon Brothers Investors Fund Inc (the
'Investors Fund'). The Series Funds were incorporated in Maryland on April 17,
1990 as an open-end management investment company, and currently operate as a
series company comprised of ten portfolios: Salomon Brothers Cash Management
Fund (the 'Cash Management Fund'), Salomon Brothers New York Municipal Money
Market Fund (the 'New York Municipal Money Fund'), Salomon Brothers
Institutional Money Market Fund (the 'Institutional Money Market Fund'), Salomon
Brothers New York Municipal Bond Fund (the 'New York Municipal Bond Fund'),
Salomon Brothers National Intermediate Municipal Fund (the 'National
Intermediate Municipal Fund'), Salomon Brothers U.S. Government Income Fund (the
'U.S. Government Income Fund'), Salomon Brothers High Yield Bond Fund (the 'High
Yield Bond Fund'), Salomon Brothers Strategic Bond Fund (the 'Strategic Bond
Fund'), Salomon Brothers Total Return Fund (the 'Total Return Fund'), and
Salomon Brothers Asia Growth Fund (the 'Asia Growth Fund'). Separate financial
statements are prepared for the New York Municipal Money Fund and the
Institutional Money Market Fund which are not part of the Investment Series. All
of the other portfolios of the Series Funds are included in the Investment
Series, which also includes the Investors Fund, a diversified open-end
management investment company incorporated in Maryland on April 2, 1958. The
Investment Series operates under a multiple class pricing structure, with each
portfolio of the Investment Series (individually, a 'Fund') offering Class A,
Class B, Class C, and Class O shares, each with their own expense structure.
Each Fund has a specific investment objective: the Cash Management Fund's
objective is to seek as high a level of current income as is consistent with
liquidity and the stability of principal; the New York Municipal Bond Fund's
objective is to achieve a high level of current income which is exempt from
regular federal income taxes and New York State and New York City personal
income taxes, consistent with the preservation of capital; the National
Intermediate Municipal Fund's objective is to seek a high level of current
income which is exempt from regular federal income taxes; the U.S. Government
Income Fund's objective is to seek a high level of current income; the High
Yield Bond Fund's primary objective is to maximize current income; the Strategic
Bond Fund's primary objective is to seek a high level of current income; the
Total Return Fund's primary objective is to obtain above-average income
(compared to a portfolio entirely invested in equity securities); the Asia
Growth Fund's and Investors Fund's objective is to seek long-term growth of
capital.
Certain costs incurred in connection with each Fund's organization, which were
payable to Salomon Brothers Asset Management Inc ('SBAM') have been deferred and
are being amortized by the Funds over a 60 month period from the date each Fund

commenced investment operations. A summary of those expenditures that remain as
of June 30, 1996 for each Fund is as follows:
<TABLE>

</TABLE>
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Investment Series in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies
are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles ('GAAP'). The
preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management
to make estimates of certain reported amounts in the financial statements.
Actual amounts could differ from those estimates.
(A) INVESTMENT VALUATION. Portfolio securities listed or traded on
national securities exchanges, or reported on the NASDAQ national market
system, are valued at the last sale price, or if there have been no sales
on that day, at the mean of the current bid and asked price which
represents the current value of the security. Over-the-counter securities
are valued at the mean of the current bid and asked price. Debt securities
are valued by using either market quotations or independent pricing
services which use prices provided by market-makers or estimates of market
values obtained from yield data relating to instruments or securities with
similar characteristics. Publicly traded sovereign bonds are typically
traded internationally on the over-the-counter market and are valued at the
mean of the last current bid and asked price as of the close of business of
that market. Short-term securities with less than 60 days remaining to
maturity when acquired by a Fund will be valued at amortized cost which
approximates market value. If a Fund, other than the Cash Management Fund,
acquires such securities with more than 60 days remaining to maturity, they
will be valued at current market value (using the bid price), until the
60th day prior to maturity, and will then be valued on an amortized cost
basis.
Portfolio securities for the Cash Management Fund are valued using the
amortized cost method, which involves initially valuing an investment at
its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any
premium or discount. This method results in a value approximating market
value.

Foreign securities quoted in a foreign currency are translated into
U.S. dollars using exchange rates at 2:30 p.m. Eastern time or at such
other rates as SBAM may determine to be appropriate in computing net asset
value.
Securities for which reliable quotations or prices from pricing
services are not readily available (as may be the case for securities of
limited marketability) and all other assets are valued at their respective
fair value as determined in good faith by, or under procedures established
by, the Board of Directors.
(B) FUTURES CONTRACTS. The New York Municipal Bond Fund, National
Intermediate Municipal Fund, High Yield Bond Fund, Strategic Bond Fund,
Total Return Fund, Asia Growth Fund and Investors Fund may enter into
futures contracts, which involves paying or receiving variation margin,
which will be recorded as unrealized gain or loss until the contract is
closed. When the contract is closed, a realized gain or loss will be
recognized. Outstanding contracts involve elements of market risk in excess
of amounts reported in the financial statements.
(C) OPTION CONTRACTS. When a Fund writes or purchases a call or a put
option, an amount equal to the premium received or paid by the Fund is
recorded as a liability or asset, the value of which is marked-to-market
daily to reflect the current market value of the option. When the option
expires, the Fund realizes a gain or loss equal to the amount of the
premium received or paid. When the Fund exercises an option or enters into
a closing transaction by purchasing or selling an offsetting option, it
realizes a gain or loss without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on
the underlying security. When a written call option is exercised, the Fund
realizes a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security and the
proceeds from such sale are increased by the premium originally received.
When a written put option is exercised, the amount of the premium received
reduces the cost of the security that the Fund purchased upon exercise of
the option.
(D) MORTGAGE ROLLS. The U.S. Government Income Fund, Strategic Bond
Fund and Total Return Fund may enter into mortgage 'dollar rolls' in which
a Fund sells mortgage-backed securities for delivery in the current month
and simultaneously contracts to repurchase substantially similar (same
type, coupon and maturity) securities on a specified future date. The Fund
is compensated by a fee paid by the counterparty. Dollar rolls are
accounted for as financing arrangements; the fee is accrued into interest
income ratably over the term of the dollar roll and any gain or loss on the
roll is deferred until disposition of the rolled security. The average
daily balance of dollar rolls outstanding during the six months ended June
30, 1996 was approximately $1,023,000, $618,000, $109,000 for the U.S.
Government Income Fund, Strategic Bond Fund and Total Return Fund,
respectively.
(E) REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. When entering into repurchase agreements,
it is each Fund's policy that the Fund take possession, through its
custodian, of the underlying collateral and monitor the collateral's value
at the time the agreement is entered into and on a daily basis during the
term of the repurchase agreement to
PAGE 56
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
SALOMON BROTHERS INVESTMENT SERIES
ensure that it always equals or exceeds the repurchase price. In the event
of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, realization
and/or retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.
(F) FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of each Fund
are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities of the High Yield Bond Fund, Strategic Bond Fund, Total Return
Fund, Asia Growth Fund and Investors Fund denominated in a foreign currency
are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange each
day. 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 effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on
investments in securities are not segregated in the Statements of
Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those
securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or
loss on investments.
(G) FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The High Yield Bond Fund,
Strategic Bond Fund, Total Return Fund, Asia Growth Fund and Investors Fund
may enter into forward foreign currency contracts in connection with
planned purchases or sales of securities or to hedge the value of portfolio
securities. A forward foreign currency contract is an agreement between two
parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The
contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in value is recorded by
the Fund as an unrealized gain or loss. When a forward foreign currency
contract is extinguished, through either delivery or offset by entering
into another forward foreign currency contract, the Fund records a realized
gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at
the time it was opened and the value of the contract at the time it was
extinguished or offset.
(H) LOAN PARTICIPATIONS. The High Yield Bond Fund, Strategic Bond Fund
and Total Return Fund may invest in fixed and floating rate loans arranged
through private negotiations between a foreign sovereign entity and one or
more financial institutions ('lender'). The market values of the High Yield
Bond Fund and the Strategic Bond Fund's loan participations at June 30,
1996 were $1,083,749 and $361,250, respectively.
In connection with purchasing participations, the Fund generally will
have no right to enforce compliance by the borrower, and the Fund may not
benefit directly from any collateral supporting the loan in which it has
purchased the participation. As a result, the Fund will assume the credit
risk of both the borrower and the
PAGE 57
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
SALOMON BROTHERS INVESTMENT SERIES
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)
lender that is selling the participation. In the event of the insolvency of
the lender selling the participation, the Fund may be treated as a general
creditor of the lender and may not benefit from any set-off between the
lender and the borrower.
(I) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. Each Fund intends to comply with the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated
investment companies, including the distribution requirements of the Tax
Reform Act of 1986, and to distribute all of its income, including any net
realized gains, to shareholders. Therefore, no Federal income tax or excise
tax provision is required.
(J) DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends from net
investment income on the shares of each of the Funds (except the Asia
Growth Fund and Investors Fund) are declared each business day to
shareholders of record that day, and are paid on the last business day of
the month. Dividends from net investment income for the Asia Growth Fund
will be declared on an annual basis. Dividends from net investment income
for the Investors Fund are declared on a quarterly basis. Distributions of
net realized gains to shareholders of each Fund, if any, are declared at
least annually. Dividends and distributions to shareholders of each Fund
are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles due primarily to differences in the treatment of foreign
currency gains/losses, deferral of wash sales, and post-October losses
incurred by each Fund. Permanent book/tax differences are reclassified
within the capital accounts based on their federal income tax basis
treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassifications.
Dividends and distributions which exceed net investment income and net
realized gains for financial reporting purposes but not for tax purposes
are reported as distributions in excess of net investment income and
distributions in excess of net realized capital gains.
(K) CLASS ACCOUNTING. Investment income, common expenses and gain
(loss) on investments are allocated to the various classes of a Fund on the
basis of daily net assets of each class. Distribution and shareholder
servicing fees relating to a specific class are charged directly to that
class. No class has preferential dividend rights; differences in per share
dividend rates are generally due to differences in separate class expenses.
(L) EXPENSES. Direct expenses are charged to the Fund that incurred
them, and general expenses of the Investment Series are allocated to the
Funds based on each Fund's relative net assets.
(M) OTHER. Investment transactions are recorded as of the trade date.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income,
including the accretion of discounts or amortization of premiums, is
recognized when earned. Gains or losses on sales of securities are
calculated for financial accounting and Federal income tax purposes on the
identified cost basis. Net investment income (other than distribution fees)
and unrealized and realized gains or losses are allocated daily to
PAGE 58
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
SALOMON BROTHERS INVESTMENT SERIES
each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of each class's net
assets to the Fund's total net assets.
2. MANAGEMENT FEE AND OTHER AGREEMENTS
Each Fund retains SBAM, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Salomon Inc, to
act as investment manager of each Fund, subject to the supervision by the Board
of Directors of each Fund. SBAM furnishes the Investment Series with office
space and certain services and facilities required for conducting the business
of the Investment Series and pays the compensation of its officers. The
management fee for these services for each Fund (except the Investors Fund) is
payable monthly and is based on the following annual percentages of each Funds'
average daily net assets: .20% for the Cash Management Fund, .50% for the New
York Municipal Bond Fund and the National Intermediate Municipal Fund, .60% for
the U.S. Government Income Fund, .75% for the High Yield Bond Fund and Strategic
Bond Fund, .55% for the Total Return Fund and .80% for the Asia Growth Fund.
SBAM Limited provides certain advisory services to SBAM for the benefit of the
Strategic Bond Fund. SBAM Limited is compensated by SBAM at no additional
expense to the Strategic Bond Fund. SBAM has retained SBAM AP to act as
sub-advisor to the Asia Growth Fund. SBAM AP is compensated by SBAM at no
additional expense to the Asia Growth Fund. SBAM Limited provides certain
administrative services to the Asia Growth Fund. For such administrative
services, SBAM Limited is compensated by SBAM at no additional expense to the
Asia Growth Fund.
The Investors Fund pays SBAM a base fee subject to an increase or decrease
depending on the extent, if any, to which the investment performance of the
Investors Fund exceeds or is exceeded by the investment record of the Standard &
Poor's 500 Index of Composite Stocks ('S&P 500 Index'). The base fee is paid
quarterly based on the following annual rates:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
AVERAGE DAILY NET ASSETS ANNUAL FEE RATE
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<S> <C>
First $350 million.................................................................. .500%
Next $150 million................................................................... .400%
Next $250 million................................................................... .375%
Next $250 million................................................................... .350%
Over $1 billion..................................................................... .300%
</TABLE>
The performance adjustment is paid quarterly based on a rolling one year period.
A performance adjustment will only be made after the investment performance of
the Investors Fund exceeds or is exceeded by the investment record of the S&P
500 Index by at least one percentage point. For each percentage point by which
the investment performance of the Investors Fund exceeds or is exceeded by the
investment record of the S&P 500 Index, the base fee will be adjusted upward or
downward by .01% (annualized). The maximum annual adjustment is .10% which would
occur if the Investors Fund's performance exceeds or is exceeded by the S&P 500
Index by ten or
PAGE 59

SALOMON BROTHERS INVESTMENT SERIES
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)
more percentage points. For the rolling years ended March 31, 1996 and June 30,
1996, the Investors Fund's performance exceeded the investment record of the S&P
Index by approximately two and three percent, respectively. As a result, base
management fees were increased by $19,564 at March 31, 1996, and $34,793 at June
30, 1996.
For the period ended June 30, 1996, SBAM waived management fees of $14,070,
$9,407, $27,483, $31,879, $78,869, $57,889, $66,106 and $6,014 for the Cash
Management Fund, New York Municipal Bond Fund, National Intermediate Municipal
Fund, U.S. Government Income Fund, High Yield Bond Fund, Strategic Bond Fund,
Total Return Fund and Asia Growth Fund, respectively, and voluntarily absorbed
expenses of $724, $10,369, $35,468, $35,313, $7,293, $39,794 and $4,890 for the
Cash Management Fund, New York Municipal Bond Fund, National Intermediate
Municipal Fund, U.S. Government Income Fund, Strategic Bond Fund, Total Return
Fund and Asia Growth Fund, respectively.
If in any fiscal year total expenses of any Fund, excluding taxes, interest,
brokerage and extraordinary expenses, but including the management fee, exceed
the most stringent expense limitations imposed by state securities regulations
applicable to the Fund, SBAM will pay or reimburse the Fund for the excess.
Currently, the most restrictive of these limitations on an annual basis is 2.5%
of the first $30 million of average daily net assets, 2.0% of the next $70
million of average daily net assets and 1.5% of average daily net assets in
excess of $100 million. No such expense reimbursement was required for the
period ending June 30, 1996.
Investors Bank & Trust Company serves as custodian and administrator for each
Fund, which includes performing certain administrative services in connection
with the operation of each Fund. During the period ended June 30, 1996, credits
earned on outstanding cash balances were used to reduce custodian fees by $5,
$1,134, $1,148, $12, $391, $6, $218 and $202 for the Cash Management Fund, New
York Municipal Bond Fund, National Intermediate Municipal Fund, U.S. Government
Income Fund, High Yield Bond Fund, Total Return Fund, Asia Growth Fund and
Investors Fund, respectively.
Each Fund has an agreement with Salomon Brothers Inc ('Salomon Brothers'), an
affiliate of the Investment Adviser, to distribute its shares pursuant to a
multiple pricing system. Each class (except for Class O) of each Fund (except
for the Cash Management Fund) is authorized pursuant to a services and
distribution plan applicable to that class of shares (the 'Class A Plan,' the
'Class B Plan,' and the 'Class C Plan,' collectively, the 'Plans') adopted
pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
'1940 Act'), to pay Salomon Brothers an annual service fee with respect to Class
A, Class B, and Class C shares of the applicable Funds at the rate of .25% of
the value of the average daily net assets of the respective class. Salomon
Brothers is also paid an annual distribution fee with respect to Class B and
Class C shares of each Fund (except for the Cash Management Fund) at the rate of
.75% of the
PAGE 60

SALOMON BROTHERS INVESTMENT SERIES
value of the average daily net assets of the respective class. Class O shares
are not subject to a services and distribution plan fee.
Brokerage commissions of $600 and $29,364 were paid by the Total Return Fund and
Investors Fund, respectively, to Salomon Brothers, the Funds' distributor and an
indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Salomon Inc, for transactions executed on
behalf of the Funds for the period ended June 30, 1996.
Salomon Brothers received $7,088 as its portion of the front-end sales charge on
sales of Class A shares of the Funds during the period ended June 30, 1996. In
addition, contingent deferred sales charges of $59,533 were paid to Salomon
Brothers in connection with redemptions of certain Class B and Class C shares of
the Funds during the period ended June 30, 1996.

During the period ended June 30, 1996, net realized gain from forward foreign
currency contracts for the Strategic Bond Fund amounted to $27,577, and net
realized losses from forward currency contracts amounted to $4,262 for the Asia
Growth Fund. Net realized losses on mortgage dollar rolls amounted to $29,766
and $21,828 for the U.S. Government Income Fund and Strategic Bond Fund,
respectively.
5. PORTFOLIO INVESTMENT RISKS
CREDIT AND MARKET RISK. Funds that invest in high yield and emerging market
instruments are subject to certain credit and market risks. The yields of high
yield and emerging market debt obligations reflect, among other things,
perceived credit risk. The Funds' investment in securities rated below
investment grade typically involve risks not associated with higher rated
securities including, among others, greater risk of timely and ultimate payment
of interest and principal, greater market price volatility and less liquid
secondary market trading. The consequences of political, social, economic or
diplomatic changes may have disruptive effects on the market prices of
investments held by the Funds. The Funds' investment in non-dollar denominated
securities may also result in foreign currency losses caused by devaluations and
exchange rate fluctuations.
The Cash Management Fund invests in money market instruments maturing in
thirteen months or less whose short-term credit ratings are within the two
highest ratings categories of two nationally recognized statistical rating
organizations ('NRSROs') or if rated by only one NRSRO, that NRSRO, or, if not
rated, are believed by the investment manager to be of comparable quality. The
New York Municipal Bond Fund pursues its investment objectives by investing at
least 80% of its net assets in obligations that are exempt from regular federal
income taxes and at least 65% of its net assets in obligations that are exempt
from personal income taxes of the State and City of New York. Because the New
York Municipal Bond Fund invests primarily in obligations of the State and City
of New York, it is more susceptible to factors adversely affecting issuers of
such obligations than a fund that is more diversified.
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK. Certain Funds enter into
forward foreign currency contracts ('forward contracts') to facilitate
settlement of foreign currency denominated portfolio transactions or to manage
foreign currency exposure associated with foreign currency denominated
securities. Forward contracts involve elements of market risk in excess of the
amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Funds bear the
risk of an unfavorable change in the foreign exchange rate underlying the
forward contract. Risks may also arise upon entering into these contracts from
the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their
contracts.
Funds that enter into mortgage dollar rolls are subject to the risk that the
market value of the securities the Fund is obligated to repurchase under the
agreement may decline below the repurchase price. In the event the buyer of
securities under a mortgage dollar roll files for bankruptcy or becomes
insolvent, the Fund's use of proceeds of the dollar

- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)
roll may be restricted pending a determination by the other party, or its
trustee or receiver, whether to enforce the Fund's obligation to repurchase the
securities.
Consistent with their objective to seek high current income, the High Yield Bond
Fund and the Strategic Bond Fund may invest in instruments whose values and
interest rates may be linked to foreign currencies, interest rates, indices or
some other financial indicator. The value at maturity or interest rates for
these instruments will increase or decrease according to the change in the
indicator to which it is indexed. These securities are generally more volatile
in nature and the risk of loss of principal is greater.
A risk in writing a call option is that the Fund may forego the opportunity of
profit if the market price of the underlying security increases and the option
is exercised. A risk in writing a put option is that the Fund may incur a loss
if the market price of the underlying security decreases and the option is
exercised. In addition, there is the risk that the Fund may not be able to enter
into a closing transaction because of an illiquid secondary market.
6. TAX INFORMATION
