WARBURG PINCUS CASH RESERVE FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
October 16, 1995
Dear Shareholder:
Short-term interest rates declined during the six months ended August 31,
1995, abetted by a 25-basis-point easing of the federal-funds rate by the
Federal Reserve on July 6, and a slowing economy with very little inflation. The
nation's gross domestic product grew by an annualized 1.3% during the second
quarter of 1995, well below the first quarter and under the Fed's long-term
target of 2.5% annualized growth. Third-quarter reports showed a resumption of
moderate growth with low inflation as an inventory correction continued. As a
result of the Fed's easing and the possibility of further easing, annualized
yields on three-month Treasury bills decreased from 6.06% at the end of February
to 5.50% at the end of August.
Warburg Pincus Cash Reserve Fund (the 'Fund') had a 30-day annualized
current yield of 5.42% as of August 31, 1995. Net assets of the Fund were $273.9
million, down from $403.2 million on February 28, 1995. For the seven-day period
ended August 31, 1995, the net annualized yield was 5.42% down from 5.65% on
February 28, 1995. The Fund's average weighted maturity on August 31, 1995, was
56 days, nine days longer than in February.
The resumption of real gross domestic product growth is apt to keep Federal
Reserve policy on hold until a 1996 federal budget is in place. At that time, a
credible package of deficit reduction could trigger a small additional rate cut.
In response, the Fund will continue to purchase only the highest-quality
securities in order to provide competitive returns without compromising
stability of principal. We appreciate your continued support and investment in
the Fund.

WARBURG PINCUS NEW YORK TAX EXEMPT FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
October 16, 1995
Dear Shareholder:
Tax-exempt money-fund yields continued to rise during the six-month period
ended August 31, 1995. The Donoghue's All Tax-Free category produced a 12-month
total return of 3.25% for the year ended August 31, 1995, 64 basis points higher
than February's 12-month total return. The interest-rate environment also
resulted in longer average weighted maturities, as funds extended to enhance
yields, and strong growth overall in tax-free money-fund assets, which reached
an all-time high during the period.
For the period, inflation remained well-behaved and in the Fed's targeted
2.5%-3.0% range, as progress toward an economic 'soft landing' continued.
Weaker-than-expected economic data in June, however, shifted sentiment toward a
possible recession. As a result, yields on the one-year Treasury bill fell to
5.50%. To stimulate the economy, the Federal Open Market Committee lowered the
federal-funds rate by 25 basis points in July. By the end of the period, signs
of renewed strength in economic activity enabled the FOMC to leave interest
rates unchanged at the August meeting.
Warburg Pincus New York Tax Exempt Fund (the 'Fund') seeks to invest in
high-quality issues, the income from which is exempt from federal, New York
state and New York City personal income taxes. The general credit quality within
New York state remains steady, as Standard & Poor's maintains a positive rating
with no expected downgrade. However, on July 10, 1995, New York City bonds were
downgraded by Standard & Poor's to 'BBB'.
The Fund had a 30-day annualized current yield of 3.23% as of August 31,
1995, and net assets of $72.7 million. Its average weighted maturity was 57
days. The Fund's current yield for the seven-day period ended August 31, 1995,
was 3.17%.
The Fund will continue to seek current income that is exempt from federal,
New York state and New York City personal income taxes, consistent with
preservation of capital and liquidity. We appreciate your continued support and
investment in the Fund.

Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the '1940 Act'), as diversified and
non-diversified, open-end management investment companies, respectively.
Investment objectives for each Fund are as follows: the Cash Reserve Fund
is designed to provide investors with high current income consistent with
liquidity and stability of principal; the New York Tax Exempt Fund is designed
to provide investors with as high a level of current income that is exempt from
Federal, New York State, and New York City personal income taxes as is
consistent with preservation of capital and liquidity.
Issuers of New York tax-exempt securities (including issuers whose
obligations may be acquired by the New York Tax Exempt Fund) have experienced
serious financial difficulties in recent years. These difficulties have at times
jeopardized the credit standing and impaired the borrowing abilities of all New
York issuers and have generally contributed to higher interest costs for their
borrowings and fewer markets for their outstanding debt obligations. During the
recent past, several different issuers of Municipal Securities of New York State
and its agencies and instrumentalities and of New York City have been downgraded
by Standard & Poor's Ratings Group and Moody's Investors Service, Inc. A
recurrence of the financial difficulties experienced by certain issuers of New
York tax-exempt securities could result in defaults or declines in the market
values of their existing obligations and, possibly, in the obligations of other
issuers of New York tax-exempt securities.
The net asset value of each Fund is determined as of noon and the close of
regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange on each day, except on days when
the Exchange is closed. Each Fund's investments are valued under the amortized
cost method which approximates current market value. Under this method,
investments are valued at cost when purchased and thereafter a constant
proportionate amortization of any discount or premium is recorded until maturity
of the investment.
Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Interest income is
recorded on the accrual basis. The cost of investments sold is determined by use
of the specific identification method for both financial reporting and income
tax purposes.
Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly.
Distributions of net capital gains, if any, are declared and paid annually,
although the Cash Reserve Fund may declare and pay short-term capital gains, if
any, periodically as the Board of Directors determines. To the extent that a net
realized capital gain can be reduced by a capital loss carryover, such gain will
not be distributed.
Each Fund intends to continue to comply with the special provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code available to investment companies and therefore no Federal
income tax provision is required.
Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreement transactions. Under the terms
of a typical repurchase agreement, each Fund acquires an underlying security
subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase the security. The value of
the underlying security will be maintained at an amount at least equal to the
total amount of the repurchase obligation, including interest. The collateral is
in the Fund's possession.
