(1) A person who purchases shares through an account with a financial
institution or broker/dealer may be charged separate transaction fees
by the financial institution or broker/dealer. In addition, a wire
redemption charge, currently $7.00, is deducted from the amount of a
wire redemption payment made at the request of a Shareholder.
(2) A person who purchases $1 million or more Class A shares and is not
assessed a sales charge at the time of purchase, will be assessed a
sales charge equivalent to 1% of the purchase price if such purchaser
redeems any or all of the Class A shares prior to the first
anniversary of purchase.
(3) The expense information in the table has been restated to reflect
current fees that would have been applicable had they been in effect
during the previous fiscal year.
(4) Investment Advisory Fees have been revised to reflect fee waivers
effective as of the date of this Prospectus. The Adviser may
voluntarily agree to waive a part of its fees. Absent this voluntary
reduction, Investment Advisory Fees would be .55% for all classes of
shares.
(5) Absent the voluntary waiver of fees under the Trust's Distribution and
Shareholder Services Plans, 12b-1 fees (as a percentage of average
daily net assets) would be .35% for Class A shares and 1.00% for Class
B shares. There are no 12b-1 fees charged to Fiduciary Class shares.
The 12b-1 fees include a Shareholder servicing fee of .25% of the
average daily net assets of the Fund's Class B shares and may include
a Shareholder servicing fee of .25% of the average daily net assets of
the Fund's Class A shares. See "The Distributor."
(6) Total Operating Expenses have been revised to reflect fee waivers
effective as of the date of this Prospectus. Other Expenses are based
on the Fund's expenses during the most recent fiscal year. Absent the
voluntary reduction of Investment Advisory and 12b-1 fees, Total
Operating Expenses would be 1.20% for Class A Shares, 1.85% for Class
B Shares, and .85% for Fiduciary Class Shares.

Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares after six (6) years.
Therefore, the "10 Years" examples above reflect the effect of such conversion.
THESE EXAMPLES SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED A REPRESENTATION OF PAST OR FUTURE
EXPENSES AND ACTUAL EXPENSES MAY BE GREATER OR LESS THAN THOSE SHOWN. The
purpose of these tables is to assist the investor in understanding the various
costs and expenses that may be directly or indirectly borne by investors in the
Trust.
The rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") require that
the maximum sales charge be reflected in the above table. However, investors of
the Fund ("Shareholders") may, under certain circumstances, qualify for reduced
sales charges. See "How to Invest in The One Group(R)." Long-term Shareholders
of Class A and Class B shares may pay more than the equivalent of the maximum
front-end sales charges otherwise permitted by the National Association of
Securities Dealers' Rules.

THE FUND
The One Group(R) Ultra Short-Term Income Fund (the "Fund") is part of The One
Group(R) (the "Trust"), which is an open-end management investment company that
offers units of beneficial interest ("shares") in 39 separate funds and
different classes of certain of the funds. This Prospectus relates to Class A,
Class B, and Fiduciary Class shares of The One Group(R) Ultra Short-Term Income
Fund, which provide for variations in distribution costs, voting rights,
dividends and per share net asset value pursuant to a multiple class plan
("Multiple Class Plan") adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Trust. Except
for these differences among classes, each share of the Fund represents an
undivided, proportionate interest in the Fund. The Fund is a diversified mutual
fund. Information regarding the Trust's other funds and their classes is
contained in separate prospectuses which may be obtained from the Trust's
Distributor, The One Group(R) Services Company, 3435 Stelzer Road, Columbus, OH
43219, or by calling 1-800-480-4111.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
The Fund seeks a high level of current income consistent with low volatility of
principal by investing in a diversified portfolio of short-term investment
grade securities.
The investment objective of the Fund is fundamental and may not be changed
without a vote of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding shares
(as defined in the Statement of Additional Information).
There is no assurance that the Fund will meet its investment objective.
INVESTMENT POLICIES
The investment policies of the Fund may be changed without an affirmative vote
of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding shares unless a policy
is expressly deemed to be fundamental or is expressly deemed to be changeable
only by such a majority vote.
PERMISSIBLE INVESTMENTS
The Fund will normally invest at least 80% of its total assets in debt
securities of all types, including money market instruments. In addition, a
significant portion of the Fund's total assets may be invested in other
securities, including preferred stock. The Fund will invest in adjustable rate
mortgage pass-through securities and other securities representing an interest
in or collateralized by mortgages with periodic interest rate resets, some of
which may be subject to repurchase agreements. These securities often are
issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities.
However, the Fund also may purchase mortgage-backed securities that are issued
by non-governmental entities. Such securities may or may not have private
insurer guarantees as to timely payments.
The Fund also may employ certain active management techniques to hedge the
interest rate risks associated with the Fund's securities and to minimize
fluctuation in its net asset value. These techniques include, but are not
limited to, mortgage and interest rate swaps and interest rate floors and caps.
The Fund also may employ other investment techniques to enhance returns, such
as loans of Fund securities, mortgage dollar rolls, repurchase agreements,
options contracts and reverse repurchase agreements. These practices could
expose the Fund to potentially greater return as well as potentially greater
risk of loss than more traditional fixed income investments.
The Fund will maintain a maximum duration approximately equal to that of a
two-year U.S. Treasury security. Under normal interest rate conditions, the
Fund's actual duration is expected to be in a range approximately equal to that
of a 6-month to one-year U.S. Treasury security. The Fund's duration is a
measure of price sensitivity, including expected cash flow and mortgage
prepayments under a wide range of interest rate scenarios. Maturity measures
only the time until final payment is due on a bond or other debt security; it
takes no account of the pattern of a security's cash flows over time, including
how cash flow is affected by prepayments and by changes in interest rates. In
computing duration, the Fund will have to estimate the duration of obligations
that are subject to prepayment or redemption by the issuer taking into account
the influence of interest rates on prepayments and coupon flows. This method of
computing duration is known as option-adjusted duration. The Fund may use
various techniques to shorten or lengthen the option-adjusted duration of its
portfolio, including the acquisition of debt obligations at a premium or
discount, mortgage and interest rate swaps, and interest rate caps and floors,
futures contracts and options on futures contracts. The Fund's average weighted
life will range between four and five years.
The Fund will normally only invest in debt securities that are rated in one of
the four highest rating categories by a least one nationally recognized
statistical rating organization ("NRSRO") at the time of investment (for
example BBB or better by Standard & Poor's Corporation ("S&P") or Baa or better
by Moody's Investors Services ("Moody's") or, if unrated, determined by the
Adviser to be of comparable quality. Preferred stock generally will be rated in
one of the four highest rating categories by at least one NRSRO at the time of
investment (for example, BBB or better by S&P or Baa or better by Moody's) or,
if unrated,
7
<PAGE> 8
determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. Securities that are
rated in the fourth highest rating category by a NRSRO are deemed by these
rating services to have some speculative characteristics.
The Fund also may purchase taxable and tax-exempt municipal securities.
Municipal securities, if bonds, must be rated in one of the four highest
categories by at least one NRSRO at the time of investment (BBB or better by
S&P or Baa or better by Moody's), or if unrated, determined by the Adviser to
be of comparable quality. Other municipal securities, such as tax-exempt
commercial paper, notes, and variable rate demand obligations, must be rated in
one of the two highest rating categories by at least one NRSRO at the time of
investment (such as A-2 by S&P or P-2 by Moody's with respect to notes; and A-2
by S&P or VMIG-2 by Moody's, with respect to variable rate demand obligations)
or, if unrated, determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality.
In addition to the permitted investments described above, the Fund may also
invest in asset-backed securities, preferred stock, corporate securities,
convertible securities, securities purchased on a when-issued basis and forward
commitments, variable and floating rate notes, commercial paper, time deposits,
certificates of deposit, receipts, which may include Treasury Receipts ("TRS"),
Treasury Investment Growth Receipts ("TIGRS") and Certificates of Accrual on
Treasury Securities ("CATS"), U.S. Treasury obligations, which may include
Separately Traded Registered Interest and Principal Securities ("STRIPS") and
Coupon Under Book Entry Safekeeping ("CUBES"), bankers' acceptances, restricted
securities, structured instruments, municipal securities, demand features,
short-term funding agreements, securities of foreign issuers, and securities of
other investment companies. As further described under the "Description of
Permitted Investments," the Fund may use the following investment instruments
and/or techniques: multiple class pass-through securities and collateralized
mortgage obligations ("CMOs"), real estate mortgage investment conduits
("REMICs"), stripped mortgage-backed securities, fixed rate mortgage loans, and
inverse floating rate instruments.
In addition to those investments and techniques listed above, the Fund may
invest in new options, futures contracts and other financial products that may
be developed, to the extent that these products are consistent with the Fund's
investment objective and policies.
This list of permissible investments includes select securities that may be
commonly considered to be derivatives, including: mortgage dollar rolls,
options, futures contracts, options on futures contracts, multiple class
pass-through securities and collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs and
REMICs), stripped mortgage backed securities (IOs and POs) inverse floating
rate instruments, swap, cap and floor transactions and new financial products.
These securities and limitations on their use are more fully described in the
"Description of Permitted Investments."
For a description of the Fund's permitted investments, see "Description of
Permitted Investments" and the Statement of Additional Information. For a
description of permitted investments for temporary defensive purposes, see
"Temporary Defensive Position."
RISK FACTORS
The market value of the Fund's fixed-income investments will change in response
to interest rate changes and other factors. During periods of falling interest
rates, the values of outstanding fixed-income securities generally rise.
Conversely, during periods of rising interest rates, the values of such
securities generally decline. Moreover, while securities with longer maturities
tend to produce higher yields, the prices of longer maturity securities are
also subject to greater market fluctuations as a result of changes in interest
rates. Changes by recognized agencies in the rating of any fixed-income
security and in the ability of an issuer to make payments of interest and
principal also affect the value of these investments. Except under condition of
default, changes in the value of portfolio securities will not affect cash
income derived from these securities but will affect the Fund's net asset
value.
Because the Fund's investments are interest rate sensitive, the Fund's
performance will depend in large part upon the ability of the Fund to
anticipate and respond to fluctuations in market interest rates and to utilize
appropriate strategies to maximize returns to the Fund, while attempting to
minimize the associated risks to its invested capital. Operating results will
also depend upon the availability of opportunities for the investment of the
Fund's assets, including purchases and sales of suitable securities.
Municipal securities rated in the fourth highest rating category by a NRSRO are
generally considered to be investment grade, although S&P indicates that such
municipal securities have speculative characteristics. Changes in economic
conditions or other circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened
capacity of the issuers of such securities to make principal and interest
payments than is the case with higher grade securities.
The Fund's investments in mortgage pass-through securities and other securities
representing an interest in or collateralized by adjustable rate and fixed rate
mortgage loans ("Mortgage-Backed Securities") entail certain risks. These risks
include the failure of an issuer or guarantor to meet its obligations, adverse
interest rate changes, adverse economic, real estate or unemployment trends,
failures in connection with processing of transactions and the effect of
prepayments on mortgage cash flows. To the extent the Fund invests in
securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies or
instrumentalities, however, credit- and performance-related risks otherwise
associated with Mortgage-Backed Securities will be reduced.

<PAGE> 9
The investment characteristics of Mortgage-Backed Securities differ from
traditional debt securities. These differences can result in significantly
greater price and yield volatility than is the case with traditional fixed
income securities. The major differences typically include more frequent
interest and principal payments, usually monthly, the adjustability of interest
rates, and the possibility that prepayments of principal may be made at any
time. Prepayment rates are influenced by changes in current interest rates and
a variety of economic, geographic, social, and other factors. During periods of
declining interest rates, prepayment rates can be expected to accelerate. Under
certain interest rate and prepayment rate scenarios, the Fund may fail to
recoup fully its investment in Mortgage-Backed Securities even if there is a
direct or indirect governmental or agency guarantee. The Fund intends to use
hedging techniques to control this risk. In general, changes in the rate of
prepayments on a Mortgage-Backed Security will change that security's market
value and its yield to maturity, and could force the Fund to reinvest principal
at a time when it may receive a rate of interest that is unattractive relative
to the rates on its existing portfolio of adjustable rate mortgage pass-through
securities. Thus, Mortgage-Backed Securities may not be an effective means for
the Fund to lock in long-term interest rates. Conversely, during periods when
interest rates rise, slow prepayments could cause the average life of the
security to lengthen and the value to decline more than anticipated. Finally,
to the extent Mortgage-Backed Securities are purchased at a premium, mortgage
foreclosures and unscheduled principal prepayments may result in some loss of
the Fund's principal investment to the extent of the premium paid. On the other
hand, if such securities are purchased at a discount, both a scheduled payment
of principal and an unscheduled prepayment of principal will increase current
and total returns and will accelerate the recognition of income.
Certain investment management techniques that the Fund may use may expose the
Fund to special risks. These include, but are not limited to, engaging in
hedging transactions (including mortgage and interest rate swaps and interest
rate floors and caps), purchasing and selling futures and options, making
forward commitments, purchasing structured instruments, lending portfolio
securities and entering into mortgage dollar rolls. These practices could
expose the Fund to potentially greater risk of loss than more traditional
fixed-income investments.
Investments in securities of foreign issuers may involve greater risks than are
present in U.S. investments. In general, issuers in many foreign countries may
not be subject to accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards,
practices and requirements comparable to those applicable to U.S. companies.
There may be less information publicly available about and less regulation of
foreign issuers than U.S. companies. Transaction costs may be higher for
investments in foreign issuers. Securities of some foreign companies are less
liquid, and their prices more volatile, than securities of comparable U.S.
companies. The values of foreign securities may be affected (favorably or
unfavorably) by changes in currency exchange rates. Settlement of transactions
in some foreign markets may be delayed or may be less frequent than in the
United States, which could adversely affect the liquidity of the Fund. In
addition, with respect to some foreign countries, there are the possibilities
of expropriation or confiscatory taxation, the imposition of additional taxes
or tax withholding, limitations on the removal of securities, property or other
assets of the Fund, political or social instability, and diplomatic
developments, which could affect the value of investments in those countries.
For additional information on each of the Fund's permitted investments and
associated risks, see "Description of Permitted Investments."

HOW TO DO BUSINESS WITH
THE ONE GROUP(R)
HOW TO INVEST IN THE ONE GROUP(R)
Shares of the Fund are sold on a continuous basis and may be purchased directly
from the Trust's Distributor, The One Group(R) Services Company, by mail, by
telephone, or by wire. Shares may also be purchased through a financial
institution, such as a bank, savings and loan association or insurance company
(each a "Shareholder Servicing Agent"), that has established a Shareholder
servicing agreement with the Distributor, or through a broker-dealer that has
established a dealer agreement with the Distributor.
Purchases and redemptions of shares of the Fund may be made on any day that the
New York Stock Exchange is open for trading ("Business Days"). The minimum
initial and subsequent investments in the Fund are $1,000 and $100,
respectively ($100 and $25, respectively for employees of BANC ONE CORPORATION
and its affiliates). Initial and subsequent investment minimums may be waived
at the Distributor's discretion. Investors may purchase up to a maximum of
$250,000 of Class B shares per individual purchase order.
Class A and Class B shares are offered to the general public. Fiduciary Class
shares are offered to institutional investors, including affiliates of BANC ONE
CORPORATION and any bank, depository institution, insurance company, pension
plan or other organization authorized to act in fiduciary, advisory, agency,
custodial or similar capacities (each an "Authorized Financial Organization").
For additional details regarding eligibility, call the Distributor at
1-800-480-4111.
BY MAIL
Investors may purchase Class A and Class B shares of the Fund by completing and
signing an Account Application Form and mailing it, along with a check (or
other negotiable bank instrument or money order) payable to "The One Group(R),"
to State Street Bank and Trust Company (the Trust's Transfer Agent and
Custodian), P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500. Subsequent purchases of
shares may be made at any time by mailing a check to the Transfer Agent.
Account Application Forms are available through the Distributor by calling
1-800-480-4111.
Purchases of Fiduciary Class shares and Class A shares that are being offered
to investors in certain retirement plans such as 401(k) and similar plans,
other than Individual Retirement Accounts, are made by an institutional
investor and/or other intermediary on behalf of an investor (each also a
"Shareholder Servicing Agent"). The Shareholder Servicing Agent may require an
investor to complete forms in addition to the Account Application Form and to
follow procedures established by the Shareholder Servicing Agent. Such
Shareholders should contact their Shareholder Servicing Agents regarding
purchases, exchanges and redemptions of shares. See "Additional Information
Regarding Purchases."
BY TELEPHONE OR BY WIRE
Once an Account Application Form has been received, Shareholders are eligible
to make purchases by telephone or wire (if that option has been selected by a
Shareholder) by calling the Transfer Agent at 1-800-480-4111 or the Shareholder
Servicing Agents, if applicable.
Shareholders may revoke their automatic eligibility to make purchases and/or
redemptions by telephone or wire, by sending a letter so stating to the
Transfer Agent, State Street Bank and Trust Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA
02266-8500.
SYSTEMATIC INVESTMENT PLAN
Class A and Class B investors may make automatic monthly investments in the
Fund from their bank, savings and loan or other depository institution
accounts. The minimum initial and subsequent investments must be $25 under the
Systematic Investment Plan, which minimum may be waived at the discretion of
the Distributor. The Trust pays the costs associated with these transfers, but
reserves the right, upon thirty days' written notice, to impose reasonable
charges for this service. A depository institution may impose a charge for
debiting an investor's account which would reduce the investor's return from an
investment in the Fund.
FUND-DIRECT IRA
The Trust offers a tax-advantaged retirement plan for which the shares of the
Fund may be an appropriate investment. The Trust's retirement plan allows
participants to defer taxes while helping them build their retirement savings.
The One Group(R)'s Fund-Direct IRA is a retirement plan with a wide choice of
investments offering people with earned income the opportunity to compound
earnings on a tax-deferred basis. An IRA Adoption Agreement may be obtained by
calling the Distributor at 1-800-480-4111.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING PURCHASES
A purchase order will be effective as of the day received by the Distributor if
the Distributor receives the order before 4:00 p.m., eastern time. However, an
order may be canceled if the Transfer Agent does not receive Federal funds
before the close of business on the next Business Day for Fiduciary Class
shares, and before the close of business on the third Business Day for Class A
and Class B shares, and the investor could be liable for any fees or expenses
incurred by the Trust. Federal funds are monies credited to a bank's account
with a Federal Reserve Bank. The purchase price of shares of the Fund is the
net asset value next determined after a purchase order is effected plus any
applicable sales charge (the "offering price"). The net asset value per share
of the Fund is determined by dividing the total market value of the Fund's
investments and other assets allocable to a class, less any liabilities
allocable to that class, by the total number of outstanding shares of such
class. Net asset value per share is determined daily as of 4:00 p.m., eastern
time, on each Business Day. For a further discussion of the calculation of net
asset value, see the Statement of Additional Information. Shares may also be
issued in transactions involving the acquisition by the Fund of securities held
by collective investment funds sponsored and administered by affiliates of the
Adviser. Purchases will be made in full and fractional shares of the Fund
calculated to three decimal places. Although the methodology and procedures are
identical, the net asset value per share of classes within the Fund may differ
because the distribution expenses charged to Class A shares and Class B shares
are not charged to Fiduciary Class shares.
The Trust reserves the right to reject a purchase order when the Distributor
determines that it is not in the best interest of the Trust and/or its
Shareholders to accept such order. Except as provided below, neither the
Trust's Transfer Agent nor the Trust will be responsible for any loss,
liability, cost or expense for acting upon telephone or wire instructions, and
the investor will bear all risk of loss. The Trust will employ reasonable
procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine,
including requiring a form of personal identification prior to acting upon
instructions received by telephone and recording telephone instructions. If
such procedures are not employed, the Trust may be liable for any losses due to
unauthorized or fraudulent instructions.
Fiduciary Class shares offered to institutional investors and to investors in
certain retirement plans, and Class A shares that are offered to investors in
certain retirement plans such as 401(k) and similar plans, other than
Individual Retirement Accounts, will normally be held in the name of the
Shareholder Servicing Agent effecting the purchase on the Shareholder's behalf,
and it is the Shareholder Servicing Agent's responsibility to transmit purchase
orders to the Distributor. A Shareholder Servicing Agent may impose an earlier
cut-off time for receipt of purchase orders directed through it to allow for
processing and transmittal of these orders to the Distributor for effectiveness
the same day. The Shareholder should contact his or her Shareholder Servicing
Agent for information as to the Shareholder Servicing Agent's procedures for
transmitting purchase, exchange or redemption orders to the Trust. A
Shareholder who desires to transfer the registration of shares beneficially
owned by him or her, but held of record by a Shareholder Servicing Agent,
should contact the Shareholder Servicing Agent to accomplish such change. Other
Shareholders who desire to transfer the registration of their shares should
contact the Transfer Agent.
No certificates representing shares of the Fund will be issued. In
communications to Shareholders, the Fund will not duplicate mailings of Fund
material to Shareholders who reside at the same address.
SALES CHARGE
The following table shows the initial sales charge on Class A shares to a
"single purchaser" (defined below) together with the sales charge reallowed to
financial institutions and intermediaries (the "commission"):
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
SALES CHARGE

$1,000,000 or more 0.00% 0.00% 0.00%
</TABLE>
The commissions shown in the table apply to sales through financial
institutions and intermediaries. Under certain circumstances, the Distributor
will use its own funds to compensate financial institutions and intermediaries
in amounts that are additional to the commissions shown above. The maximum cash
compensation payable by the Distributor as a sales charge is 3.00% of the
offering price (including the commission shown above and additional cash
compensation described below). In addition, the Distributor will, from time to
time and at its own expense, provide promotional incentives to financial
institutions and intermediaries, whose registered representatives have sold or
are expected to sell significant amounts of the shares of the Fund,
11
<PAGE> 12
in the form of payment for travel expenses, including lodging, incurred in
connection with trips taken by qualifying registered representatives to places
within or outside the United States, and additional compensation in an amount
up to 1.00% of the offering price of Class A shares of the Fund for sales of $1
million to $5 million, and 0.50% for sales over $5 million. An investor who
purchases $1 million or more of Class A shares and is not assessed a sales
charge at the time of purchase, will be assessed a sales charge equivalent to
1% of the purchase price if such investor redeems any or all of the Class A
shares prior to the first anniversary of purchase. Under certain circumstances,
commissions up to the amount of the entire sales charge will be reallowed to
financial institutions and intermediaries, which might then be deemed to be
"underwriters" under the Securities Act of 1933.
RIGHT OF ACCUMULATION
In calculating the sales charge rates applicable to current purchases of Class
A shares, a "single purchaser" is entitled to cumulate current purchases with
the current value at the offering price of previously purchased Class A and
Class B shares of the Fund and other eligible funds of the Trust, other than
the Trust's money market funds, that are sold subject to a comparable sales
charge.
The term "single purchaser" refers to (i) an individual, (ii) an individual and
spouse purchasing shares of the Fund for their own account or for trust or
custodial accounts for their minor children, or (iii) a fiduciary purchasing
for any one trust, estate or fiduciary account, including employee benefit
plans created under Sections 401 or 457 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code"), and including related plans of the same employer. To
be entitled to a reduced sales charge based upon shares already owned, the
investor must ask the Distributor for such reduction at the time of purchase
and provide the account number(s) of the investor, the investor and spouse, and
their minor children, and give the age of such children. The Fund may amend or
terminate this right of accumulation at any time as to subsequent purchases.
LETTER OF INTENT
By initially investing at least $2,000 in Class A shares of one or more funds
that impose a comparable sales charge over the next 13 months, the sales charge
may be reduced by completing the Letter of Intent section of the Account
Application Form. The Letter of Intent includes a provision for a sales charge
adjustment depending on the amount actually purchased within the 13-month
period. In addition, pursuant to a Letter of Intent, the Custodian will hold in
escrow the difference between the sales charge applicable to the amount
initially purchased and the sales charge paid at the time of investment, which
is based on the amount covered by the Letter of Intent.
For example, assume an investor signs a Letter of Intent to purchase $250,000
in Class A shares of one (or more) of the funds of the Trust that impose a
comparable sales charge and, at the time of signing the Letter of Intent,
purchases $100,000 of Class A shares of one of these funds. The investor would
pay an initial sales charge of 2.00% (the sales charge applicable to purchases
of $250,000) and .50% of the investment (representing the difference between
the 2.50% sales charge applicable to purchases of $100,000 and the 2.00% sales
charge already paid) would be held in escrow until the investor has purchased
the remaining $150,000 or more in Class A shares under the investor's Letter of
Intent.
The amount held in escrow will be applied to the investor's account at the end
of the 13-month period unless the amount specified in the Letter of Intent is
not purchased. In order to qualify for a Letter of Intent, the investor will be
required to make a minimum purchase of at least $2,000.
The Letter of Intent will not obligate the investor to purchase Class A shares,
but if he or she does, each purchase during the period will be at the sales
charge applicable to the total amount intended to be purchased. The Letter of
Intent may be dated as of a prior date to include any purchases made within the
past 90 days.
OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES
No sales charge is imposed on Class A shares of the Fund: (i) issued through
reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions; (ii) acquired
through the exercise of exchange privileges where a comparable sales charge has
been paid for exchanged shares; (iii) purchased by officers, directors or
trustees, retirees and employees (and their spouses and immediate family
members) of the Trust, of BANC ONE CORPORATION and its subsidiaries and
affiliates, of the Distributor and its subsidiaries and affiliates, or of an
investment sub-adviser of a fund of the Trust and such sub-adviser's
subsidiaries and affiliates; (iv) sold to affiliates of BANC ONE CORPORATION
and certain accounts (other than Individual Retirement Accounts) for which
Authorized Financial Organizations act in fiduciary, advisory, agency,
custodial or similar capacities, or purchased by investment advisers, financial
planners or other intermediaries who have a dealer arrangement with the
Distributor, who place trades for their own accounts or for the accounts of
their clients and who charge a management, consulting or other fee for their
services, as well as clients of such investment advisers, financial planners or
other intermediaries who place trades for their own accounts if the accounts
are linked to the master account of such investment adviser, financial planner
or other intermediary; (v) purchased with proceeds from the recent redemption
of Fiduciary Class shares of a fund of the Trust or acquired in an exchange of
Fiduciary Class shares of a fund for Class A shares of the same fund; (vi)
purchased with proceeds from the recent redemption of shares
12
<PAGE> 13
of a mutual fund (other than a fund of the Trust) for which a sales charge was
paid; (vii) purchased in an Individual Retirement Account with the proceeds of
a distribution from an employee benefit plan, provided that, at the time of
distribution, the employee benefit plan had plan assets invested in a fund of
the Trust; (viii) purchased with Trust assets; (ix) purchased in accounts as to
which a bank or broker-dealer charges an asset allocation fee, provided the
bank or broker-dealer has an agreement with the Distributor; (x) directly
purchased with the proceeds of a distribution on a bond for which a BANC ONE
CORPORATION affiliate bank or trust company is the Trustee or Paying Agent; or
(xi) purchased in connection with plans of reorganization of the Fund, such as
mergers, asset acquisitions and exchange offers to which the Fund is a party.
An investor relying upon any of the categories of waivers of the sales charge
must qualify for such waiver in advance of the purchase with the Distributor or
the financial institution or intermediary through which shares are purchased by
the investor.
The waiver of the sales charge under circumstances (v), (vi), and (vii) above
applies only if the purchase is made within 60 days of the redemption or
distribution and if conditions imposed by the Distributor are met. The waiver
policy with respect to the purchase of shares through the use of proceeds from
a recent redemption or distribution as described in clauses (v), (vi), and
(vii) above will not be continued indefinitely and may be discontinued at any
time without notice. Investors should call the Distributor at 1-800-480-4111 to
determine whether they are eligible to purchase shares without paying a sales
charge through the use of proceeds from a recent redemption or distribution as
described above, and to confirm continued availability of these waiver policies
prior to initiating the procedures described in clauses (v), (vi), and (vii).
ALTERNATIVE SALES ARRANGEMENTS
CLASS B SHARES
Class B shares are not subject to a sales charge when they are purchased, but
are subject to a sales charge (the "Contingent Deferred Sales Charge") if a
Shareholder redeems them prior to the fourth anniversary of purchase. When a
Shareholder purchases Class B shares, the full purchase amount is invested
directly in the Fund. Class B shares of the Fund are subject to an ongoing
distribution and Shareholder service fee at an annual rate of 1.00% of the
Fund's average daily net assets as provided in the Class B Plan (described
below under "The Distributor"). The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to
reduce the amount of this fee to .75% of the Fund's average daily net assets
attributable to the Class B shares for the indefinite future. This ongoing fee
will cause Class B shares to have a higher expense ratio and to pay lower
dividends than Class A shares. Class B shares convert automatically to Class A
shares after six years, commencing from the end of the calendar month in which
the purchase order was accepted under the circumstances and subject to the
qualifications described in this Prospectus.
Proceeds from the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the distribution and
Shareholder service fees under the Class B Plan are payable to the Distributor
and financial intermediaries to defray the expenses of advance brokerage
commissions and expenses related to providing distribution-related and
Shareholder services to the Fund in connection with the sale of the Class B
shares, such as the payment of compensation to dealers and agents for selling
Class B shares. A dealer reallowance of 2.75% of the original purchase price of
the Class B shares will be paid to financial institutions and intermediaries.
CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE
If the Shareholder redeems Class B shares prior to the fourth anniversary of
purchase, the Shareholder will pay a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge at the
rates set forth below. The Contingent Deferred Sales Charge is assessed on an
amount equal to the lesser of the then-current market value or the cost of the
shares being redeemed. Accordingly, no sales charge is imposed on increases in
net asset value above the initial purchase price. In addition, no charge is
assessed on shares derived from reinvestment of dividends or capital gain
distributions.
The amount of the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge, if any, varies depending on
the number of years from the time of payment for the purchase of Class B shares
until the time of redemption of such shares. Solely for purposes of determining
the number of years from the time of any payment for the purchase of shares,
all payments during a month are aggregated and deemed to have been made on the
first day of the month.

</TABLE>
In determining whether a particular redemption is subject to a Contingent
Deferred Sales Charge, it is assumed that the redemption is first of any Class
A shares in the Shareholder's Fund account (unless the Shareholder elects to
have Class B shares redeemed first) or shares representing capital
appreciation, next of shares acquired pursuant to reinvestment of dividends and
capital gain distributions, and finally of other shares held by the Shareholder
for the longest period of time. This method should result in the lowest
possible sales charge.
To provide an example, assume you purchased 100 shares at $10 per share (a
total cost of $1,000) and prior to the second anniversary after purchase, the
net asset value per share is $12 and during such time you have acquired 10
additional shares through dividends paid in shares. If you then make your first
redemption of 50 shares (proceeds of $600), 10 shares will not be subject to
charge because you received them as dividends. With respect to the remaining 40
shares, the charge is applied only to the original cost of $10 per share and
not to the increase in net asset value of $2 per share. Therefore, $400 of the
$600 redemption proceeds is subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge at a
rate of 3.00% (the applicable rate prior to the second anniversary after
purchase).
The Contingent Deferred Sales Charge is waived on redemption of shares: (i) for
distributions that are made under a Systematic Withdrawal Plan of the Trust and
that are limited to no more than 10% of the account value annually, determined
in the first year as of the date the redemption request is received by the
Transfer Agent, and in subsequent years, as of the most recent anniversary of
that date; (ii) following the death or disability (as defined in the Code) of a
Shareholder or a participant or beneficiary of a qualifying retirement plan if
redemption is made within one year of such death or disability; or (iii) to the
extent that the redemption represents a minimum required distribution from an
Individual Retirement Account or other qualifying retirement plan to a
Shareholder who has attained the age of 70 1/2. A Shareholder or his or her
representative should contact the Transfer Agent to determine whether a
retirement plan qualifies for a waiver and must notify the Transfer Agent prior
to the time of redemption if such circumstances exist and the Shareholder is
eligible for this waiver. In addition, the following circumstances are not
deemed to result in a "redemption" of Class B shares for purposes of the
assessment of a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge, which is therefore waived:
(i) plans of reorganization of the Fund, such as mergers, asset acquisitions
and exchange offers to which the Fund is a party; or (ii) exchanges for Class B
shares of other funds of the Trust as described under "Exchanges."
CONVERSION FEATURE
Class B shares include all shares purchased pursuant to the Contingent Deferred
Sales Charge which have been outstanding for less than the period ending six
years after the end of the month in which the shares were purchased. At the end
of this period, Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares and
will be subject to the lower distribution and Shareholder service fees charged
to Class A shares. Such conversion will be on the basis of the relative net
asset values of the two classes, without the imposition of any sales charge,
fee or other charge. The conversion is not a taxable event to a Shareholder.
For purposes of conversion to Class A shares, shares received as dividends and
other distributions paid on Class B shares in a Shareholder's Fund account will
be considered to be held in a separate sub-account. Each time any Class B
shares in a Shareholder's Fund account (other than those in the sub-account)
convert to Class A shares, a pro-rata portion of the Class B shares in the
sub-account will also convert to Class A shares.
If a Shareholder effects one or more exchanges among Class B shares of the
funds of the Trust during the six-year period, the Trust will aggregate the
holding periods for the shares of each fund of the Trust for purposes of
calculating that six-year period. Because the per share net asset value of the
Class A shares may be higher than that of the Class B shares at the time of
conversion, a Shareholder may receive fewer Class A shares than the number of
Class B shares converted, although the dollar value will be the same.

EXCHANGES
CLASS A AND FIDUCIARY CLASS
Fiduciary Class Shareholders of the Fund may exchange their shares for Class A
shares of the Fund or for Class A shares or Fiduciary Class shares of another
fund of the Trust. Class A Shareholders may exchange their shares for Fiduciary
Class shares of the Fund or for Fiduciary Class shares or Class A shares of
another fund of the Trust, if the Shareholder is eligible to purchase such
shares.
The exchange privilege may be exercised only in those states where the shares
of the Fund or such other fund of the Trust may be legally sold. All exchanges
discussed herein are made at the net asset value of the exchanged shares,
except as provided below. The Trust does not impose a charge for processing
exchanges of shares. If a Shareholder seeks to exchange Class A shares of a
fund that does not impose a sales charge for Class A shares of a fund that does
or the fund being exchanged into has a higher sales charge, the Shareholder
will be required to pay a sales charge in the amount equal to the difference
between the sales charge applicable to the fund into which the shares are being
exchanged and any sales charges previously paid for the exchanged shares,
including any sales charges incurred on any earlier exchanges of the shares
(unless such sales charge is otherwise waived, as provided in "Other
Circumstances"). The exchange of Fiduciary Class shares for Class A shares also
will require payment of the sales charge unless the sales charge is waived, as
provided in "Other Circumstances."
CLASS B
Class B Shareholders of the Fund may exchange their shares for Class B shares
of any other fund of the Trust on the basis of the net asset value of the
exchanged Class B shares, without the payment of any Contingent Deferred Sales
Charge that might otherwise be due upon redemption of the outstanding Class B
shares. The newly acquired Class B shares will be subject to the higher
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge of either the fund from which the shares were
exchanged or the fund into which the shares were exchanged. With respect to
outstanding Class B shares as to which previous exchanges have taken place,
"higher Contingent Deferred Sales Charge" shall mean the higher of the
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge applicable to either the fund the shares are
exchanging into or any other fund from which the shares previously have been
exchanged. For purposes of computing the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge that
may be payable upon a disposition of the newly acquired Class B shares, the
holding period for outstanding Class B shares of the fund from which the
exchange was made is "tacked" to the holding period of the newly acquired Class
B shares. For purposes of calculating the holding period applicable to the
newly acquired Class B shares, the newly acquired Class B shares shall be
deemed to have been issued on the date of receipt of the Shareholder's order to
purchase the outstanding Class B shares of the fund from which the initial
exchange was made.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING EXCHANGES
In the case of shares held of record by a Shareholder Servicing Agent but
beneficially owned by a Shareholder, to exchange such shares the Shareholder
should contact the Shareholder Servicing Agent, who will contact the Transfer
Agent and effect the exchange on behalf of the Shareholder. If an exchange
request in good order is received by the Transfer Agent by 4:00 p.m., eastern
time, on any Business Day, the exchange usually will occur on that day. Any
Shareholder who wishes to make an exchange must receive a current prospectus of
the fund of the Trust in which he or she wishes to invest before the exchange
will be effected.
The Trust reserves the right to change the terms or conditions of the exchange
privilege discussed herein upon sixty days' written notice. An exchange between
classes of shares of the same fund is not considered a taxable event; however,
an exchange between funds of the Trust is considered a sale of shares and
usually results in a capital gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes.
Shareholders should consult their tax advisers for a more complete explanation
of the Federal income tax consequences of an exchange of shares of the Fund.
A more detailed description of the above is set forth in the Statement of
Additional Information.

Shareholders may redeem their shares without charge (except Class B shares, as
provided above) on any Business Day; shares may ordinarily be redeemed by mail,
by telephone or by wire. All redemption orders are effected at the net asset
value per share next determined for Class A and Fiduciary Class shares, and at
net asset value per share next determined reduced by any applicable Contingent
Deferred Sales Charge for Class B shares, after receipt of a valid request for
redemption. Payment to Shareholders for shares redeemed will be made within
seven days after receipt by the Transfer Agent of the request for redemption.
15
<PAGE> 16
BY MAIL
A written request for redemption must be received by the Transfer Agent in
order to constitute a valid request for redemption. All written redemption
requests should be sent to The One Group(R), c/o State Street Bank and Trust
Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500, or the Shareholder Servicing
Agent, if applicable. The Transfer Agent may require that the signature on the
written request be guaranteed by a commercial bank, a member firm of a domestic
stock exchange, or by a member of the Securities Transfer Association Medallion
Program or the Stock Exchange Medallion Program.
The signature guarantee requirement will be waived if all of the following
conditions apply: (i) the redemption is for $5,000 worth of shares or less;
(ii) the redemption check is payable to the Shareholder(s) of record; and (iii)
the redemption check is mailed to the Shareholder(s) at the address of record.
The Shareholder may also have the proceeds mailed to a commercial bank account
previously designated on the Account Application Form or by written instruction
to the Transfer Agent or the Shareholder Servicing Agent, if applicable. There
is no charge for having redemption requests mailed to a designated bank
account.
BY TELEPHONE OR BY WIRE
Shareholders may have the payment of redemption requests wired or mailed to a
domestic commercial bank account previously designated on the Account
Application Form. Wire redemption requests may be made by the Shareholder by
telephone to the Transfer Agent at 1-800-480-4111, provided that the
Shareholder has elected the telephone redemption privilege in writing to the
Distributor, or to the Shareholder Servicing Agent, if applicable. The Transfer
Agent may reduce the amount of a wire redemption payment by its then-current
wire redemption charge, which, as of the date of this Prospectus, is $7.00.
Neither the Trust nor the Transfer Agent will be responsible for the
authenticity of the redemption instructions received by telephone if it
reasonably believes those instructions to be genuine. The Trust and the
Transfer Agent will each employ reasonable procedures to confirm that telephone
instructions are genuine, and may be liable for losses resulting from
unauthorized or fraudulent telephone transactions if it does not employ those
procedures. Such procedures may include requesting personal identification
information or recording telephone conversations.
SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PLAN
Shareholders whose accounts have a value of at least $10,000 may elect to
receive, or may designate another person to receive, monthly, quarterly or
annual payments in a specified amount of not less than $100 each. There is no
charge for this service. Under the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, all dividends
and distributions must be reinvested in shares of the Fund. Purchases of
additional Class A shares while the Systematic Withdrawal Plan is in effect are
generally undesirable because a sales charge is incurred whenever purchases are
made.
Pursuant to the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, Class B Shareholders may elect to
receive, or may designate another person to receive, distributions provided
that the distributions are limited to no more than 10% of their account value
annually, determined in the first year as of the date the redemption request is
received by the Transfer Agent, and in subsequent years, as of the most recent
anniversary of that date. In addition, Shareholders who have attained the age
of 70 1/2 may elect to receive distributions, to the extent that the redemption
represents a minimum required distribution from an Individual Retirement
Account or other qualifying retirement plan.
If the amount of the systematic withdrawal exceeds the income accrued since the
previous withdrawal under the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, the principal balance
invested will be reduced and shares will be redeemed.
OTHER INFORMATION REGARDING REDEMPTIONS
At various times, the Fund may be requested to redeem shares for which it has
not yet received good payment. In such circumstances, the forwarding of
proceeds may be delayed for 15 or more days until payment has been collected
for the purchase of such shares. The Fund intends to pay cash for all shares
redeemed.
Due to the relatively high costs of handling small investments, the Fund
reserves the right to redeem, at net asset value, the shares of any Shareholder
if, because of redemptions of shares by or on behalf of the Shareholder, the
account of such Shareholder in the Fund has a value of less than $1,000, the
minimum initial purchase amount. Accordingly, an investor purchasing shares of
the Fund in only the minimum investment amount may be subject to such
involuntary redemption if he or she thereafter redeems any of these shares.
Before the Fund exercises its right to redeem such shares and to send the
proceeds to the Shareholder, the Shareholder will be given notice that the
value of the shares in his or her account is less than the minimum amount and
will be allowed 60 days to make an additional investment in the Fund in an
amount which will increase the value of the account to at least $1,000.
16
<PAGE> 17
See the Statement of Additional Information for examples of when the Trust may
suspend the right of redemption or redeem shares involuntarily if it appears
appropriate to do so in light of the Trust's responsibilities under the
Investment Company Act of 1940.
FUND MANAGEMENT
THE ADVISER
The Trust and Banc One Investment Advisors Corporation (the "Adviser") have
entered into an investment advisory agreement (the "Advisory Agreement"). Under
the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser makes the investment decisions for the
assets of the Fund and continuously reviews, supervises and administers the
Fund's investment program. The Adviser discharges its responsibilities subject
to the supervision of, and policies established by, the Trustees of the Trust.
The Trust's shares are not deposits or obligations of, or endorsed or
guaranteed by BANC ONE CORPORATION or its bank or non-bank affiliates. The
Trust's shares are not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation ("FDIC") or by any other governmental agency or government
sponsored agency of the Federal government or any state.
The Adviser is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of BANC ONE CORPORATION, a
bank holding company incorporated in the state of Ohio. BANC ONE CORPORATION
currently has affiliate banking organizations in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois,
Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Ohio, Oklahoma, Texas, Utah, West Virginia and
Wisconsin. In addition, BANC ONE CORPORATION has several affiliates that engage
in data processing, venture capital, investment and merchant banking, and other
diversified services including trust management, investment management,
brokerage, equipment leasing, mortgage banking, consumer finance and insurance.
On a consolidated basis, BANC ONE CORPORATION had assets of over $90.5 billion
as of December 31, 1995.
The Adviser represents a consolidation of the investment advisory staffs of a
number of bank affiliates of BANC ONE CORPORATION, which have considerable
experience in the management of open-end management investment company
portfolios, including The One Group(R) since 1985 (then known as "The Helmsman
Fund").
Gary J. Madich, CFA is Senior Managing Director of Fixed Income Securities and
Co-Portfolio Manager of the Fund. Mr. Madich joined the Adviser in February
1995. Prior to joining the Adviser, Mr. Madich was a Senior Vice President and
Portfolio Manager with Federated Investors. Mr. Madich has seventeen years of
investment management experience.
Michael J. Sais, CFA, is head of mortgage research for the Adviser and
co-Portfolio Manager of the Fund. Prior to joining the Adviser, Mr. Sais was a
Eurodollar trader with Citibank, a senior portfolio manager for Valley National
Bank, and head portfolio manager for PRIMERIT Bank FSB. Mr. Sais has eight
years of investment management experience.
The Adviser is entitled to a fee, which is calculated daily and paid monthly,
at an annual rate of .55% of the average daily net assets of the Fund. The
Adviser may voluntarily agree to waive a part of its fees. (See "About the Fund
- -- Expense Summary.") These fee waivers are voluntary and may be terminated at
any time. Shareholders will be notified in advance if and when these waivers
are terminated. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995, the Fund paid
investment advisory fees to the Adviser of .23% of the Fund's average daily net
assets.
THE DISTRIBUTOR
The One Group(R) Services Company (the "Distributor"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the BISYS Group, Inc., and the Trust are parties to a
distribution agreement (the "Distribution Agreement") under which shares of the
Fund are sold on a continuous basis.
Class A shares are subject to a distribution and Shareholder services plan (the
"Plan"). As provided in the Plan, the Trust will pay the Distributor a fee of
.35% of the average daily net assets of Class A Shares of the Fund. Currently,
the Distributor has voluntarily agreed to limit payments under the Plan to .25%
of the average daily net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. Up to .25% of
the fees payable under the Plan may be used as compensation for Shareholder
services by the Distributor and/or financial institutions and intermediaries.
All such fees that may be paid under the Plan will be paid pursuant to Rule
12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Distributor may apply these
fees toward: (i) compensation for its services in connection with distribution
assistance or provision of Shareholder services; or (ii) payments to financial
institutions and intermediaries such as banks (including affiliates of the
Adviser), savings and loan associations, insurance companies, investment
counselors, broker-dealers, and the Distributor's affiliates and subsidiaries,
as compensation for services or reimbursement of expenses incurred in
connection with distribution assistance or provision of Shareholder services.
Class B shares are subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge if such shares
are redeemed prior to the fourth anniversary of purchase. Class B shares of the
Fund are subject to an ongoing distribution and Shareholder service fee as
provided in the Class B distribution and Shareholder services plan (the "Class
B Plan") at an annual rate of 1.00% of the Fund's average daily net assets,
which includes Shareholder servicing fees of .25% of the Fund's average daily
net assets. Currently, the Distributor has
17
<PAGE> 18
voluntarily agreed to limit payments under the Class B Plan to .75% of the
average daily net assets of the Class B shares of the Fund.
Proceeds from the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the distribution and the
Shareholder service fees under the Class B Plan are payable to the Distributor
and financial intermediaries to defray the expenses of advance brokerage
commissions and expenses related to providing distribution-related and
Shareholder services to the Fund in connection with the sale of Class B shares,
such as the payment of compensation to dealers and agents for selling Class B
shares. The combination of the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the
distribution and Shareholder service fees facilitate the ability of the Fund to
sell the Class B shares without a sales charge being deducted at the time of
purchase.
The Plan and the Class B Plan are characterized as compensation plans since the
distribution fees will be paid to the Distributor without regard to the
distribution or Shareholder service expenses incurred by the Distributor or the
amount of payments made to financial institutions and intermediaries. The Fund
also may execute brokerage or other agency transactions through an affiliate of
the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser or through the Distributor for which the affiliate
or the Distributor receives compensation. Pursuant to guidelines adopted by the
Board of Trustees of the Trust, any such compensation will be reasonable and
fair compared to compensation received by other brokers in connection with
comparable transactions.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995, 440 Financial Distributors, Inc.,
the previous distributor to the Trust, received fees aggregating .25% of the
average daily net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. In addition, 440
Financial Distributors, Inc. received annualized fees of .75% of the average
daily net assets of the Class B shares of the Fund.
Fiduciary Class shares of the Fund are offered without distribution fees to
institutional investors, including Authorized Financial Organizations. It is
possible that an institution may offer different classes of shares to its
customers and thus receive different compensation with respect to different
classes of shares. In addition, a financial institution that is the record
owner of shares for the account of its customers may impose separate fees for
account services to its customers.
THE ADMINISTRATOR
The One Group(R) Services Company, (the "Administrator"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the BISYS Group, Inc., and the Trust are parties to an
administration agreement relating to the Fund (the "Administration Agreement").
Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, the Administrator is
responsible for providing the Trust with administrative services (other than
investment advisory services), including regulatory reporting and all necessary
office space, equipment, personnel and facilities.
The Adviser also serves as Sub-Administrator to each fund of the Trust,
pursuant to an agreement between the Administrator and the Adviser. Pursuant to
this agreement, the Adviser performs many of the Administrator's duties, for
which the Adviser receives a fee paid by the Administrator.
The Administrator is entitled to a fee for administrative services, which is
calculated daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of .20% of each fund's
average daily net assets on the first $1.5 billion in Trust assets (excluding
the Treasury Only Money Market Fund, the Government Money Market Fund and The
One Group(R) Investor Funds), .18% of each fund's average daily net assets to $2
billion in Trust assets (excluding the Treasury Only Money Market Fund, the
Government Money Market Fund and The One Group(R) Investor Funds), and .16% of
each fund's average daily net assets when Trust assets exceed $2 billion
(excluding the Treasury Only Money Market Fund, the Government Money Market Fund
and The One Group(R) Investor Funds). During the fiscal year ended June 30,
1995, 440 Financial, the previous Administrator to the Trust, received
annualized fees of .09% of the Fund's average daily net assets.
THE TRANSFER AGENT AND CUSTODIAN
State Street Bank and Trust Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500 acts
as Transfer Agent and Custodian for the Trust for which services it receives a
fee. The Custodian holds cash, securities and other assets of the Trust as
required by the Investment Company Act of 1940. Bank One Trust Company, N.A.
serves as Sub-Custodian in connection with the Trust's securities lending
activities, pursuant to an agreement between State Street Bank and Trust
Company and Bank One Trust Company. Bank One Trust Company receives a fee paid
by the Trust.
COUNSEL AND INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
Ropes & Gray serves as counsel to the Trust. Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P. serves
as the independent accountants of the Trust.
OTHER INFORMATION
THE TRUST
18
<PAGE> 19
The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts Business Trust under a Declaration
of Trust filed on May 23, 1985. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trust to
offer separate funds and different classes of each fund. All consideration
received by the Trust for shares of any fund and all assets of such fund belong
to that fund and would be subject to liabilities related thereto.
The Trust pays its expenses, including fees of its service providers, audit and
legal expenses, expenses of preparing prospectuses, proxy solicitation material
and reports to Shareholders, costs of custodial services and registering the
shares under Federal and state securities laws, pricing, insurance expenses,
litigation and other extraordinary expenses, brokerage costs, interest charges,
taxes and organizational expenses. During the fiscal year of the Trust ended
June 30, 1995, the expenses of the Fund were .86% of the average daily net
assets of the Class A shares of the Fund; 1.31% of the average daily net assets
of the Class B shares of the Fund on an annual basis and .61% of the average
daily net assets of the Fiduciary Class shares of the Fund. These expenses
would have been 1.36%, 1.96%, and 1.01%, respectively, of the average daily net
assets of such classes, but for the voluntary reduction of fees.
The Adviser and the Administrator of the Fund each bears all expenses incurred
in connection with the performance of their services as investment adviser and
administrator, respectively, other than the cost of securities (including
brokerage commissions, if any) purchased for the Fund.
As a general matter, as set forth in the Multiple Class Plan, expenses are
allocated to each class of shares of the Fund on the basis of the net asset
value of that class in relation to the net asset value of the Fund. At present,
the only expenses that are allocated to Class A and Class B shares, other than
in accordance with the relative net asset value of the class, are the different
distribution and Shareholder services costs. See "Expense Summary." At present,
no expenses are allocated to Fiduciary Class shares as a class that are not
also borne by the other classes of shares of the Fund in proportion to the
relative net asset values of the shares of such classes.
The organizational expenses of the Fund have been capitalized and are being
amortized in the first five years of the Fund's operations. Such amortization
will reduce the amount of income available for payment as dividends.
TRUSTEES OF THE TRUST
The management and affairs of the Trust are supervised by the Trustees under
the laws governing business trusts in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The
Trustees have approved contracts under which, as described above, certain
companies provide essential management services to the Trust.
VOTING RIGHTS
As set forth in the Multiple Class Plan, each share held entitles the
Shareholder of record to one vote. Each fund of the Trust will vote separately
on matters relating solely to that fund. In addition, each class of a fund
shall have exclusive voting rights on any matter submitted to Shareholders that
relates solely to that class, and shall have separate voting rights on any
matter submitted to Shareholders in which the interests of one class differ
from the interests of any other class. However, all fund Shareholders will have
equal voting rights on matters that affect all fund Shareholders equally. As a
Massachusetts Business Trust, the Trust is not required to hold annual meetings
of Shareholders but approval will be sought for certain changes in the
operation of the Trust and for the election of Trustees under certain
circumstances. In addition, a Trustee may be elected or removed by the
remaining Trustees or by Shareholders at a special meeting called upon written
request of Shareholders owning at least 10% of the outstanding shares of the
Trust. In the event that such a meeting is requested, the Trust will provide
appropriate assistance and information to the Shareholders requesting the
meeting.
DIVIDENDS
Net investment income (exclusive of capital gains) is determined and declared
daily, and is distributed in the form of periodic dividends to Shareholders of
the Fund on the first Business Day of each month. Capital gains of the Fund, if
any, will be distributed at least annually.
To maintain a relatively even rate of distributions from the Fund rather than
having substantial fluctuations from period to period, the monthly
distributions level from the Fund may be fixed from time to time at rates
consistent with the Adviser's long-term earnings expectations.
Shareholders automatically receive all income dividends and capital gain
distributions in additional Class A, Class B or Fiduciary Class shares, as
applicable, at the net asset value next determined following the record date,
unless the Shareholder has elected to take such payment in cash. Such election,
or any revocation thereof, must be made in writing, at least 15 days prior to
distribution, to the Transfer Agent at P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500,
and will become effective with respect to dividends and distributions having
record dates after its receipt by the Transfer Agent. Reinvested dividends and
distributions receive the same tax treatment as dividends and distributions
paid in cash.
Class B shares received as dividends and capital gains distributions at the net
asset value next determined following the record date shall be held in a
separate Class B sub-account. Each time any Class B shares (other than those in
the sub-account) convert
19
<PAGE> 20
to Class A shares, a pro-rata portion of the Class B shares in the sub-account
will also convert to Class A shares. (See "Conversion Feature.")
Dividends and distributions of the Fund are paid on a per-share basis. The
value of each share will be reduced by the amount of the payment. If shares are
purchased shortly before the record date for a dividend or the distribution of
capital gains, a Shareholder will pay the full price for the shares and receive
some portion of the price back as a taxable dividend or distribution even
though such distribution would, in effect, represent a return of the
Shareholder's investment.
The amount of dividends payable on Fiduciary Class shares will be more than the
dividends payable on Class A and Class B shares because of the distribution
expenses charged to Class A and Class B shares.
SHAREHOLDER INQUIRIES
Shareholder inquiries should be directed to the Administrator, The One Group(R)
Services Company, 3435 Stelzer Road, Columbus, OH 43219.
REPORTING
The Trust issues unaudited financial information semiannually and audited
financial statements annually. The Trust furnishes proxy statements and other
reports to Shareholders of record.
OTHER INVESTMENT POLICIES
TEMPORARY DEFENSIVE POSITION
For temporary defensive purposes during periods when the Adviser or Sub-Adviser
determines that market conditions warrant such action, the Fund may invest up
to 100% of its assets in money market instruments, such as commercial paper,
bankers' acceptances, time deposits, and certificates of deposit, and may hold
a portion of its assets in cash for liquidity purposes.
To the extent the Fund is engaged in a temporary defensive position, it will
not be pursuing its investment objective.
PORTFOLIO TURNOVER
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995, the portfolio turnover rate for the
Fund was 2.91%. This portfolio turnover rate resulted principally from market
volatility and net redemptions from the Fund. This rate of portfolio turnover
may vary greatly from year to year, as well as within a particular year. Higher
portfolio turnover rates will likely result in higher transaction costs to the
Fund and may result in additional tax consequences to the Fund's Shareholders.
INVESTMENT LIMITATIONS
The investment objective and the following investment limitations are
fundamental policies of the Fund. Fundamental policies cannot be changed
without the consent of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding
shares. The term "majority of the outstanding shares" means the vote of (i) 67%
or more of the Fund's shares present at a meeting, if more than 50% of the
outstanding shares of the Fund are present or represented by proxy; or (ii)
more than 50% of the Fund's outstanding shares, whichever is less.
The Fund may not:
1. Purchase securities of any issuer (except securities issued or guaranteed by
the United States, its agencies or instrumentalities and, if consistent with
the Fund's investment objective and policies, repurchase agreements involving
such securities) if, as a result, more than 5% of the total assets of the Fund
would be invested in the securities of such issuer, or the Fund would own more
than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer. This restriction
applies to 75% of the Fund's assets. For purposes of these limitations, a
security is considered to be issued by the government entity whose assets and
revenues guarantee or back the security.
2. Make loans, except that the Fund may (i) purchase or hold debt instruments
in accordance with its investment objective and policies; (ii) enter into
repurchase agreements; and (iii) engage in securities lending as described in
this Prospectus and in the Statement of Additional Information.
3. Purchase any securities which would cause more than 25% of the total assets
of the Fund to be invested in the securities of one or more issuers conducting
their principal business activities in the same industry, provided that this
limitation does not apply to investments in obligations issued or guaranteed by
the U.S. government or its agencies and instrumentalities and repurchase
agreements involving such securities. For purposes of this limitation (i)
utility companies will be divided according to their services, for example,
gas, gas transmission, electric and telephone will each be considered a
separate industry; and (ii)
20
<PAGE> 21
wholly-owned finance companies will be considered to be in the industries of
their parents if their activities are primarily related to financing the
activities of their parents.
The foregoing percentages will apply at the time of the purchase of a security.
Additional investment limitations are set forth in the Statement of Additional
Information.
DESCRIPTION OF PERMITTED INVESTMENTS
The following is a description of certain of the permitted investments for the
Fund.
U.S. TREASURY OBLIGATIONS--The Fund may invest in bills, notes and bonds issued
by the U.S. Treasury and separately traded interest and principal component
parts of such obligations that are transferable through the Federal book-entry
system known as Separately Traded Registered Interest and Principal Securities
("STRIPS") and Coupon Under Book Entry Safekeeping ("CUBES").
RECEIPTS--The Fund may purchase interests in separately traded interest and
principal component parts of U.S. Treasury obligations that are issued by banks
or brokerage firms and are created by depositing U.S. Treasury notes and U.S.
Treasury bonds into a special account at a custodian bank. The custodian holds
the interest and principal payments for the benefit of the registered owners of
the certificates or receipts. The custodian arranges for the issuance of the
certificates or receipts evidencing ownership and maintains the register.
Receipts include Treasury Receipts ("TRS"), Treasury Investment Growth Receipts
("TIGRS"), and Certificates of Accrual on Treasury Securities ("CATS").
STRIPS, CUBES, TRS, TIGRS and CATS are sold as zero coupon securities, which
means that they are sold at a substantial discount and redeemed at face value
at their maturity date without interim cash payments of interest or principal.
This discount is amortized over the life of the security, and such amortization
will constitute the income earned on the security for both accounting and tax
purposes. Because of these features, these securities may be subject to greater
interest rate volatility than interest-paying U.S. Treasury obligations. The
Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in STRIPS, CUBES, TRS, TIGRS and
CATS. See also "Taxes."
CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT--Certificates of deposit are negotiable interest
bearing instruments, with a specific maturity. Certificates of deposit ("CDs")
are issued by banks and savings and loan institutions in exchange for the
deposit of funds and normally can be traded in the secondary market prior to
maturity.
TIME DEPOSITS--Time deposits are non-negotiable receipts issued by a bank in
exchange for the deposit of funds. Like a certificate of deposit, a time
deposit ("TD") earns a specified rate of interest over a definite period of
time; however, it cannot be traded in the secondary market. Time deposits with
a withdrawal penalty are considered to be illiquid securities; therefore, the
Fund will not invest more than 15% of its total assets in such time deposits
and other illiquid securities.
BANKERS' ACCEPTANCES--Bankers' acceptances are bills of exchange or time drafts
drawn on and accepted by (i.e., made an obligation of) a commercial bank. They
are used by corporations to finance the shipment and storage of goods and to
furnish dollar exchange. Maturities are generally six months or less.
COMMERCIAL PAPER--Commercial paper is the term used to designate unsecured
short-term promissory notes issued by corporations and other entities.
Maturities on these issues vary from a few days to nine months.
U.S. GOVERNMENT AGENCIES--Certain Federal agencies have been established as
instrumentalities of the U.S. government to supervise and finance specific
types of activities. Select agencies, such as the Government National Mortgage
Association ("Ginnie Mae") and the Export-Import Bank, are supported by the
full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury; others, such as the Federal
National Mortgage Association ("Fannie Mae"), are supported by the credit of
the instrumentality and have the right to borrow from the U.S. Treasury; others
are supported by the authority of the U.S. government to purchase the agency's
obligations; while still others, such as the Federal Farm Credit Banks and the
Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac"), are supported solely by
the credit of the instrumentality itself. No assurance can be given that the
U.S. government would provide financial support to U.S. government sponsored
agencies or instrumentalities if it is not obligated to do so by law.
Obligations of U.S. government agencies include debt issues and mortgage-backed
securities issued or guaranteed by select agencies.
STRUCTURED INSTRUMENTS - Structured instruments are debt securities issued by
agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government (such as the Student Loan
Marketing Association ("Sallie Mae"), Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac),
banks, municipalities, corporations, and other business entities whose interest
and/or principal payments are indexed to certain specific foreign currency
exchange rates, interest rates, or one or more other reference indices.
Structured instruments frequently are assembled in the form of medium-term
notes, but a variety of forms are available. Structured instruments are
commonly considered to be derivatives.
While structured instruments may offer the potential for a favorable rate of
return from time to time, they also entail certain risks. Structured
instruments may be less liquid than other debt securities, and the price of
structured instruments may be more volatile. If the value of the reference
index changes in a manner other than that expected by the Adviser, principal
and/or interest payments on the structured instrument may be substantially less
than expected. In addition, although structured instruments may be sold in
21
<PAGE> 22
the form of a corporate debt obligation, they may not have some of the
protection against counter party default that may be available with respect to
publicly traded debt securities (i.e., the existence of a trust indenture).
MUNICIPAL SECURITIES - Municipal Securities are issued by a state or political
subdivision to obtain funds for various public purposes. Municipal securities
are generally classified as "general obligation" bonds and "revenue" bonds.
General obligation bonds are obligations involving the credit of an issuer
possessing taxing power and are payable from the issuer's general unrestricted
revenues. Revenue bonds are payable only from the revenues derived from a
particular facility or class of facilities or, in some cases, from the proceeds
of a special excise or other specific revenue source. Revenue bonds are not
payable from the issuer's general revenues. The Fund also may purchase
short-term tax-exempt General Obligation Notes, Tax Anticipation Notes, Bond
Anticipation Notes, Revenue Anticipation Notes, Project Notes, and other forms
of short-term tax-exempt obligations. Such notes are issued with a short-term
maturity in anticipation of the receipt of tax funds, the proceeds of bond
placements, or other revenues.
An issuer's obligations under its municipal securities are subject to the
provisions of bankruptcy, insolvency, and other laws affecting the rights and
remedies of creditors, such as the federal bankruptcy code, and laws, if any,
which may be enacted by Congress or state legislatures extending the time for
payment of principal or interest, or both, or imposing other constraints upon
the enforcement of such obligations. The power or ability of an issuer to meet
its obligations for the payment of interest on and principal of its municipal
securities may be materially adversely affected by litigation or other
conditions. Such litigation or conditions may from time to time have the effect
of introducing uncertainties in the market for tax-exempt obligations or
certain segments thereof, or may materially affect the credit risk with respect
to particular bonds or notes. Adverse economic, business, legal or political
developments might affect all or a substantial portion of a Fund's municipal
securities in the same manner. In addition, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code") imposes certain continuing requirements on issuers of
tax-exempt bonds regarding the use, expenditure and investment of bond proceeds
and the payment of rebates to the United States of America. Failure by the
issuer to comply subsequent to the issuance of tax-exempt bonds with certain of
these requirements could cause interest on the bonds to become includable in
gross income retroactive to the date of issuance.
PREFERRED STOCK - Preferred stock is a class of stock that generally pays
dividends at a specified rate and has preference over common stock in the
payment of dividends and liquidation. Preferred stock generally does not carry
voting rights. As with all equity securities, the price of preferred stock
fluctuates based on changes in a company's financial condition and on overall
market and economic conditions.
CORPORATE SECURITIES - Corporate securities include corporate bonds,
convertible and non-convertible debt securities, and preferred stock, as well
as commercial paper (short-term promissory notes issued by corporations).
Issuers of corporate bonds and notes are divided into many different categories
by bond market sector, such as electric utilities, gas utilities, telephone
utilities, consumer finance companies, wholesale finance companies and
industrial companies. Within each major category of issuer, there are many
subcategories.
CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES - Convertible securities have characteristics similar to
both fixed income and equity securities. Because of the conversion feature, the
market value of convertible securities tends to move together with the market
value of the underlying stock. As a result, the Fund's selection of convertible
securities is based, to a great extent, on the potential for capital
appreciation that may exist in the underlying stock. The value of convertible
securities is also affected by prevailing interest rates, the credit quality of
the issuer, and any call provisions.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS--Repurchase agreements are agreements by which a person
obtains a security and simultaneously commits to return the security to the
seller at an agreed upon price (including principal and interest) on an agreed
upon date within a number of days from the date of purchase. The custodian or
its agent will hold the security as collateral for the repurchase agreement.
Collateral must be maintained at a value at least equal to 100% of the
repurchase price. The Fund bears a risk of loss in the event the other party
defaults on its obligations and the Fund is delayed or prevented from its right
to dispose of the collateral securities or if the Fund realizes a loss on the
sale of the collateral securities. The Adviser will enter into repurchase
agreements on behalf of the Fund only with financial institutions deemed to
present minimal risk of bankruptcy during the term of the agreement based on
guidelines established and periodically reviewed by the Trustees. Repurchase
agreements are considered by the SEC to be loans under the Investment Company
Act of 1940.
REVERSE REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS - The Fund may borrow funds for temporary
purposes by entering into reverse repurchase agreements. Pursuant to such
agreements, the Fund would sell portfolio securities to financial institutions
such as banks and broker-dealers, and agree to repurchase them at a mutually
agreed-upon date and price. The Fund will enter into reverse repurchase
agreements only to avoid otherwise selling securities during unfavorable market
conditions to meet redemptions. At the time the Fund enters into a reverse
repurchase agreement, it will place liquid high grade debt securities having a
value equal to the repurchase price (including accrued interest), in a
segregated custodial account and will subsequently monitor the account to
ensure that such equivalent value is maintained. Reverse repurchase agreements
involve the risk that the market value of the securities sold by the Fund may
decline below the price at which the Fund is obligated to repurchase the
securities.
MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES -Mortgage-backed securities are debt obligations
secured by real estate loans and pools of loans on single family homes,
multi-family homes, mobile homes, and in some cases, commercial properties. The
Fund may acquire securities representing an interest in a pool of mortgage
loans that are issued or guaranteed by a U.S. government agency. The primary
issuers or guarantors of these mortgage-backed securities are Ginnie Mae,
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Mortgage-backed securities may also be issued by
non-governmental entities and may or may not have private insurer guarantees of
timely payments. Such non-governmental mortgage securities cannot be treated
as U.S. government securities for purposes of investment policies. The Fund
also may invest in mortgage-backed securities issued by non-government
entities, which consist of Collateralized Mortgage
22
<PAGE> 23
Obligations ("CMOs") and Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduits ("REMICs")
that are rated in the highest or second highest rating categories by at least
one NRSRO at the time of investment or, if unrated, determined by the Adviser
to be of comparable quality. The mortgages backing these securities include
conventional thirty-year fixed rate mortgages, graduated payment mortgages, and
adjustable rate mortgages. Non-governmental mortgage-backed securities often
involve a greater degree of risk than agency issued mortgage-backed securities.
Mortgage-backed securities are in most cases "pass-through" instruments,
through which the holder receives a share of all interest and principal
payments from the mortgages underlying the certificate. Because the prepayment
characteristics of the underlying mortgages vary, it is not possible to predict
accurately the average life or realized yield of a particular issue of
pass-through certificates. During periods of declining interest rates,
prepayment of mortgages underlying mortgage-backed securities can be expected
to accelerate. When the mortgage obligations are prepaid, the Fund reinvests
the prepaid amounts in securities, the yield of which reflects interest rates
prevailing at the time. Moreover, prepayment of mortgages which underlie
securities purchased at a premium could result in capital losses.
The Fund also may invest in multiple class securities issued by U.S. government
agencies and instrumentalities such as Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Ginnie Mae, or
private issuers, including guaranteed CMOs and REMIC pass-through or
participation certificates, when consistent with the Fund's investment
objective, policies and limitations. A REMIC is a CMO that qualifies for
special tax treatment under the Code and invests in certain mortgages
principally secured by interests in real property and other permitted
investments.
CMOs and guaranteed REMIC pass-through certificates ("REMIC Certificates")
issued by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae are types of multiple class
pass-through securities. Investors may purchase beneficial interests in REMICs,
which are known as "regular" interests or "residual" interests. The Fund does
not currently intend to purchase residual interests in REMICs. The REMIC
Certificates represent beneficial ownership interests in a REMIC trust,
generally consisting of mortgage loans or Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae
guaranteed mortgage pass-through certificates (the "Mortgage Assets") or
private issuers. The REMIC Trust may hold the mortgage related assets. The
obligations of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae under their respective
guaranty of the REMIC Certificates are obligations solely of Fannie Mae,
Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae, respectively.
Fannie Mae REMIC Certificates are issued and guaranteed as to timely
distribution of principal and interest by Fannie Mae. In addition, Fannie Mae
will be obligated to distribute the principal balance of each class of REMIC
Certificates in full, whether or not sufficient funds are otherwise available.
For Freddie Mac REMIC Certificates, Freddie Mac guarantees the timely payment
of interest, and also guarantees the payment of principal as payments are
required to be made on the underlying mortgage participation certificates
("PCS"). PCS represent undivided interests in specified residential mortgages
or participation therein purchased by Freddie Mac and placed in a PC pool. With
respect to principal payments on PCS, Freddie Mac generally guarantees ultimate
collection of all principal of the related mortgage loans without offset or
deduction. Freddie Mac also guarantees timely payment of principal on certain
PCS referred to as "Gold PCS."
Ginnie Mae REMIC certificates guarantee the full and timely payment of interest
and principal on each class of securities (in accordance with the terms of
those classes as specified in the related offering circular supplement). The
Ginnie Mae guarantee is backed by the full faith and credit of the United
States of America.
REMIC Certificates issued by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae are treated
as U.S. government securities for purposes of investment policies. CMOs and
REMIC Certificates are issued in multiple classes. Each class of CMOs or REMIC
Certificates, often referred to as a "tranche," is issued at a specific
adjustable or fixed interest rate and must be fully retired no later than its
final distribution date. Principal prepayments on the mortgage loans or the
Mortgage Assets underlying the CMOs or REMIC Certificates may cause some or all
of the classes of CMOs or REMIC Certificates to be retired substantially
earlier than their final distribution dates. Generally, interest is paid or
accrues on all classes of CMOs or REMIC Certificates on a monthly basis.
The principal of and interest on the Mortgage Assets may be allocated among the
several classes of CMOs or REMIC Certificates in various ways. In certain
structures (known as "sequential pay" CMOs or REMIC Certificates), payments of
principal, including any principal prepayments, on the Mortgage Assets
generally are applied to the classes of CMOs or REMIC Certificates in the order
of their respective final distribution dates. Thus no payment of principal will
be made on any class of sequential pay CMOs or REMIC Certificates until all
other classes having an earlier final distribution date have been paid in full.
Additional structures of CMOs and REMIC Certificates include, among others,
"parallel pay" CMOs and REMIC Certificates. Parallel pay CMOs or REMIC
Certificates are those which are structured to apply principal payments and
prepayments of the Mortgage Assets to two or more classes concurrently on a
proportionate or disproportionate basis. These simultaneous payments are taken
into account in calculating the final distribution date of each class.
A wide variety of REMIC Certificates may be issued in the parallel pay or
sequential pay structures. These securities include accrual certificates (also
known as "Z-Bonds"), which only accrue interest at a specified rate until all
other certificates having an earlier final distribution date have been retired
and are converted thereafter to an interest-paying security, and planned
amortization class ("PAC") certificates, which are parallel pay REMIC
Certificates which generally require that specified amounts of principal be
applied on each payment date to one or more classes of REMIC Certificates (the
"PAC Certificates"), even though all other principal payments and prepayments
of the Mortgage Assets are then required to be applied to one or more other
classes of the certificates. The scheduled principal payments for the PAC
Certificates generally have the highest priority on each payment date after
interest due has been paid to all classes entitled to receive interest
currently. Shortfalls, if any, are added to the amount of principal payable on
the next payment date. The PAC Certificate payment schedule is taken into
account in calculating the final distribution date of each class of PAC. In
order to create PAC tranches, one or more tranches generally must be created
that absorb most of the volatility in
23
<PAGE> 24
the underlying Mortgage Assets. These tranches tend to have market prices and
yields that are much more volatile than the PAC classes.
The Z-Bonds in which the Fund may invest may bear the same non-credit-related
risks as do other types of Z-Bonds. Z-Bonds in which the Fund may invest will
not include residual interest.
There can be no assurance that the United States government would provide
financial support to Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae if necessary in the
future.
REGULATION OF MORTGAGE LOANS--Mortgage loans are subject to a variety of state
and Federal regulations designed to protect borrowers which may impair the
ability of the mortgage lender to enforce its rights under the mortgage
documents. These regulations include legal restraints on foreclosures,
homeowner rights of redemption after foreclosure, Federal and state bankruptcy
and debtor relief laws, restrictions on enforcement of mortgage loan "due on
sale" clauses and state usury laws. Even though the Fund will invest in
mortgage-backed securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its
agencies or instrumentalities, these regulations may adversely affect the
Fund's investments by delaying the Fund's receipt of payments derived from
principal or interest on mortgage loans affected by such regulations.
STRIPPED MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES--The Fund may, to enhance revenues or hedge
against interest rate risk, invest in stripped mortgage-backed securities
("SMBS"), which are derivative multiclass mortgage securities. The Fund may
only invest in SMBS issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies
or instrumentalities.
SMBS are usually structured with two classes that receive different proportions
of the interest and principal distributions from a pool of mortgage assets. A
common type of SMBS will have one class receiving all of the interest from the
mortgage assets ("IOs"), while the other class will receive all of the
principal ("POs"). However, in some instances, one class will receive some of
the interest and most of the principal while the other class will receive most
of the interest and the remainder of the principal. If the underlying mortgage
assets experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, the Fund
may fail to fully recoup its initial investment in these securities. Although
the market for such securities is increasingly liquid, certain SMBS may not be
readily marketable and will be considered illiquid for purposes of the Fund's
limitation on investments in illiquid securities. Any determination that a SMBS
is liquid will be made pursuant to guidelines and standards established by the
Trust's Board of Trustees. The market value of the class consisting entirely of
principal payments generally is unusually volatile in response to changes in
interest rates. The yields on a class of SMBS that receives all or most of the
interest from mortgage assets are generally higher than prevailing market
yields on other mortgage-backed securities because their cash flow patterns are
more volatile and there is a greater risk that the initial investment will not
be fully recouped. The Adviser or Sub-Adviser will seek to manage these risks
(and potential benefits) by investing in a variety of such securities and by
using certain hedging techniques.
The Fund will generally limit its investments in SMBS to 15% of its total
assets.
ADJUSTABLE RATE MORTGAGE LOANS ("ARMS")--ARMs eligible for inclusion in a
mortgage pool will generally provide for a fixed initial mortgage interest rate
for a specified period of time. Thereafter, the interest rates (the "Mortgage
Interest Rates") may be subject to periodic adjustment based on changes in the
applicable index rate (the "Index Rate"). The adjusted rate would be equal to
the Index Rate plus a gross margin, which is a fixed percentage spread over the
Index Rate established for each ARM at the time of its origination.
Adjustable interest rates can cause payment increases that some borrowers may
find difficult to make. However, certain ARMs may provide that the Mortgage
Interest Rate may not be adjusted to a rate above an applicable lifetime
maximum rate or below an applicable lifetime minimum rate for such ARM. Certain
ARMs may also be subject to limitations on the maximum amount by which the
Mortgage Interest Rate may adjust for any single adjustment period (the
"Maximum Adjustment"). Other ARMs ("Negatively Amortizing ARMs") may provide
instead or as well for limitations on changes in the monthly payment on such
ARMs. Limitations on monthly payments can result in monthly payments which are
greater or less than the amount necessary to amortize a Negatively Amortizing
ARM by its maturity at the Mortgage Interest Rate in effect in any particular
month. In the event that a monthly payment is not sufficient to pay the
interest accruing on a Negatively Amortizing ARM, any such excess interest is
added to the principal balance of the loan, causing negative amortization and
will be repaid through future monthly payments. It may take borrowers under
Negatively Amortizing ARMs longer periods of time to achieve equity and may
increase the likelihood of default by such borrowers. In the event that a
monthly payment exceeds the sum of the interest accrued at the applicable
Mortgage Interest Rate and the principal payment which would have been
necessary to amortize the outstanding principal balance over the remaining term
of the loan, the excess (or "accelerated amortization") further reduces the
principal balance of the ARM. Negatively Amortizing ARMs do not provide for
the extension of their original maturity to accommodate changes in their
Mortgage Interest Rate. As a result, unless there is a periodic recalculation
of the payment amount (which there generally is), the final payment may be
substantially larger than the other payments. These limitations on periodic
increases in interest rates and on changes in monthly payment protect borrowers
from unlimited interest rate and payment increases.
There are two main categories of indices which provide the basis for rate
adjustments on ARMs: those based on U.S. Treasury securities and those derived
from a calculated measure such as a cost of funds index or a moving average of
mortgage rates. Commonly utilized indices include the one-year, three-year and
five-year constant maturity Treasury bill rates, the three-month Treasury bill
rate, the 180-day Treasury bill rate, rates on longer-term Treasury securities,
the 11th District Federal Home Loan Bank Cost of Funds, the National Median
Cost of Funds, the one-month, three-month, six-month or one-year London
Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), the prime rate of a specific bank, or
commercial paper rates. Some indices, such as the one-year constant maturity
Treasury rate, closely mirror changes in market interest rate levels. Others,
such as the 11th District Federal Home Loan Bank Cost
24
<PAGE> 25
of Funds index, tend to lag behind changes in market rate levels and tend to be
somewhat less volatile. The degree of volatility in the market value of the
Fund's portfolio and therefore in the net asset value of the Fund's shares will
be a function of the length of the interest rate reset periods and the degree
of volatility in the applicable indices.
MORTGAGE DOLLAR ROLLS--The Fund may enter into mortgage "dollar rolls" in which
the Fund sells securities for delivery in the current month and simultaneously
contracts with the same counterpart to repurchase similar (same type, coupon
and maturity) but not identical securities on a specified future date. The Fund
gives up the right to receive principal and interest paid on the securities
sold. However, the Fund would benefit to the extent of any difference between
the price received for the securities sold and the lower forward price for the
future purchase (often referred to as the "drop") or fee income plus the
interest earned on the cash proceeds of the securities sold until the
settlement date of the forward purchase. Unless such benefits exceed the
income, capital appreciation and gain or loss due to mortgage prepayments that
would have been realized on the securities sold as part of the mortgage dollar
roll, the use of this technique will diminish the investment performance of the
Fund compared with what such performance would have been without the use of
mortgage dollar rolls. The Fund will hold and maintain in a segregated account
until the settlement date, cash or liquid, high grade debt securities in an
amount equal to the forward purchase price. The benefits derived from the use
of mortgage dollar rolls may depend upon the Adviser's ability to predict
correctly mortgage prepayments and interest rates. There is no assurance that
mortgage dollar rolls can be successfully employed.
For financial reporting and tax purposes, the Fund proposes to treat mortgage
dollar rolls as two separate transactions: one involving the purchase of a
security and a separate transaction involving a sale. The Fund does not
currently intend to enter into mortgage dollar rolls that are accounted for as
a financing. For purposes of diversification and investment limitations,
mortgage dollar rolls are considered to be Mortgage-Backed Securities.
DEMAND FEATURES - The Fund may acquire securities that are subject to puts and
standby commitments ("demand features") to purchase the securities at their
principal amount at a fixed price (usually with accrued interest) within a
fixed period (usually seven days) following a demand by the Fund. The demand
feature may be issued by the issuer of the underlying securities, a dealer in
the securities or by another third party, and may not be transferred separately
from the underlying security. The underlying securities subject to a put may be
sold at any time at market rates. The Fund expects that it will acquire puts
only where the puts are available without the payment of any direct or indirect
consideration. However, if advisable or necessary, a premium may be paid for
put features. A premium paid will have the effect of reducing the yield
otherwise payable on the underlying security. The purpose of engaging in
transactions involving puts is to maintain flexibility and liquidity to permit
the Fund to meet redemption requests and remain as fully invested as possible.
ASSET-BACKED SECURITIES - Asset-backed securities consist of securities secured
by company receivables, home equity loans, truck and auto loans, leases, credit
card receivables and other securities backed by other types of receivables or
other assets. These securities may be pass-through securities, which means that
principal and interest payments on the underlying securities (less servicing
fees) are passed through to shareholders on a pro rata basis. Asset-backed
securities are normally traded over-the-counter and typically have a
short-intermediate maturity structure depending on the pay down characteristics
of the underlying financial assets which are passed through to the security
holder. These securities may involve prepayment risk, which is the risk that
the underlying debt may be refinanced or paid off prior to their maturities
during periods of declining interest rates. In that case, a portfolio manager
may have to reinvest the proceeds from the securities at a lower rate.
Potential market gains on a security subject to prepayment risk may be more
limited than potential market gains on a comparable security that is not
subject to prepayment risk. There is no limit on the extent to which the Fund
may invest in asset-backed securities. Asset-backed securities may be purchased
for the purpose of enhancing yield. Under certain interest rate and prepayment
rate scenarios, the Fund may fail to recoup fully its investment in
asset-backed securities. Asset-backed securities are commonly considered to be
derivatives.
SHORT-TERM FUNDING AGREEMENTS - The Fund may, in order to enhance yield, make
limited investments in short-term funding agreements issued by banks and highly
rated insurance companies. Short-term funding agreements issued by insurance
companies are sometimes referred to as Guaranteed Investment Contracts
("GICs"), while those issued by banks are referred to as Bank Investment
Contracts ("BICs"). Pursuant to such agreements, the Fund makes cash
contributions to a deposit account at a bank or insurance company. The bank or
insurance company then credits to the Fund on a monthly basis guaranteed
interest at either a fixed, variable or floating rate. These contracts are
general obligations of the issuing bank or insurance company and are paid from
the general assets of the issuing entity. The Fund will purchase short-term
funding agreements only from banks and insurance companies which, at the time
of purchase, are rated "A" or the equivalent by at least one NRSRO and have
assets of $1 billion or more. Generally, there is no active secondary market
in short-term funding agreements. Therefore, short-term funding agreements are
considered by the Fund to be illiquid investments, and will be acquired by the
Fund only if, at the time of purchase, no more than 15% of the Fund's net
assets will be invested in short-term funding agreements and other illiquid
securities.
SECURITIES OF FOREIGN ISSUERS - The Fund may invest in securities of foreign
issuers to achieve income or capital appreciation. The Fund also may invest in
commercial paper of foreign issuers and obligations of foreign branches of U.S.
banks, U.S. and London branches of foreign banks, and supranational entities
which are established through the joint participation of several governments
(e.g., the Asian Development Bank and the Inter-American Development Bank).
Foreign investments involve risks that are different from investments in
securities of U.S. issuers. These risks may include future unfavorable
political and economic developments, possible withholding taxes, seizure of
foreign deposits, currency controls and exchange rates, and interest
limitations or other governmental restrictions which might affect payment of
principal or interest. Additionally, there may be less public information
available about foreign issuers. Further, foreign branches of foreign banks are
not regulated by U.S. banking authorities and generally are not bound by
accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards comparable to U.S.
banks. Securities of foreign issuers may include sponsored and unsponsored
American Depository Receipts ("ADRs"), which are securities typically issued by
a U.S. financial institution that evidence ownership interests in a pool of
securities issued by a foreign issuer. ADRs include American Depository
25
<PAGE> 26
Shares and New York Shares. There may be less information available on the
foreign issuers of unsponsored ADRs than on the issuers of sponsored ADRs.
INVESTMENT COMPANY SECURITIES--The Fund may invest up to 5% of its total assets
in the securities of any one investment company, but may not own more than 3%
of the securities of any one investment company or invest more than 10% of its
assets in the securities of other investment companies. In accordance with an
exemptive order issued to the Trust by the SEC, such other investment company
securities may include securities of a money market fund of the Trust, and such
companies may include companies of which the Adviser or a sub-adviser to a fund
of the Trust, or an affiliate of such Adviser or sub-adviser, serves as
investment adviser, administrator or distributor. Because other investment
companies employ an investment adviser, such investment by the Fund may cause
Shareholders to bear duplicate fees. The Adviser will waive its fee
attributable to the assets of the investing fund invested in a money market
fund of the Trust; and, to the extent required by the laws of any state in
which shares of the Trust are sold, the Adviser will waive its fees
attributable to the assets of the Fund invested in any investment company.
SECURITIES LENDING--In order to generate additional income, the Fund may lend
up to 33% of the securities in which it is invested pursuant to agreements
requiring that the loan be continuously secured by cash, securities of the U.S.
government or its agencies, shares of an investment trust or mutual fund or any
combination of cash and such securities as collateral equal at all times to at
least 100% of the market value plus accrued interest on the securities lent.
The Fund will continue to receive interest on the securities lent while
simultaneously seeking to earn interest on the investment of cash collateral in
U.S. government securities, shares of an investment trust or mutual fund, or
other short-term, highly liquid investments. Collateral is marked to market
daily to provide a level of collateral at least equal to the market value of
the securities lent. There may be risks of delay in recovery of the securities
or even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the securities
fail financially. However, loans will only be made to borrowers deemed by the
Adviser to be of good standing under guidelines established by the Trust's
Board of Trustees and when, in the judgment of the Adviser the consideration
which can be earned currently from such securities loans justifies the
attendant risk. The Fund will enter into loan arrangements only with counter
parties which the Adviser has deemed to be creditworthy under guidelines
established by the Board of Trustees. Loans are subject to termination by the
Fund or the borrower at any time, and are therefore, not considered to be
illiquid investments.
RESTRICTED SECURITIES--The Fund may invest in commercial paper issued in
reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933. Section 4(2) commercial paper is restricted as to
disposition under Federal securities law and is generally sold to institutional
investors, such as the Fund, who agree that they are purchasing the paper for
investment purposes and not with a view to public distribution. Any resale by
the purchaser must be in an exempt transaction. Section 4(2) commercial paper
is normally resold to other institutional investors like the Fund through or
with the assistance of the issuer or investment dealers who make a market in
Section 4(2) commercial paper, thus providing liquidity. The Fund believes that
Section 4(2) commercial paper and possibly certain other restricted securities
that meet the criteria for liquidity established by the Trustees are quite
liquid. The Fund intends, therefore, to treat the restricted securities that
meet the criteria for liquidity established by the Trustees, including Section
4(2) commercial paper, as determined by the Adviser, as liquid and not subject
to the investment limitation applicable to illiquid securities. In addition,
because Section 4(2) commercial paper is liquid, the Fund will not subject such
paper to the limitation applicable to restricted securities.
The ability of the Trustees to determine the liquidity of certain restricted
securities is permitted under an SEC staff position set forth in the adopting
release for Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Rule"). The Rule
is a nonexclusive safe-harbor for certain secondary market transactions
involving securities subject to restrictions on resale under Federal securities
laws. The Rule provides an exemption from registration for resales of otherwise
restricted securities to qualified institutional buyers. The Rule is expected
to further enhance the liquidity of the secondary market for securities
eligible for resale under Rule 144A. The Fund believes that the staff of the
SEC has left the question of determining the liquidity of all restricted
securities to the Trustees. The Trustees have directed the Adviser to consider
the following criteria in determining the liquidity of certain restricted
securities:
o the frequency of trades and quotes for the security;
o the number of dealers willing to purchase or sell the security and
the number of other potential buyers;
o dealer undertakings to make a market in the security; and
o the nature of the security and the nature of the marketplace trades.
VARIABLE AND FLOATING RATE INSTRUMENTS--Certain of the obligations purchased by
the Fund may carry variable or floating rates of interest, may involve a
conditional or unconditional demand feature and may include variable amount
master demand notes. A demand instrument with a demand notice period exceeding
seven days may be considered illiquid if there is no secondary market for such
security; therefore, the Fund will not invest more than 15% of its total assets
in such instruments and other illiquid securities. The interest rates on these
securities may be reset daily, weekly, quarterly or some other reset period,
and may have a floor or ceiling on interest rate charges. There is a risk that
the current interest rate on such obligations may not accurately reflect
existing market interest rates.
There is no limit on the extent to which the Fund may purchase variable and
floating rate instruments that are not illiquid. The Fund will purchase
variable and floating rate instruments to facilitate portfolio liquidity or to
permit the investment of the Fund's assets at a favorable rate of return.
26
<PAGE> 27
SECURITIES PURCHASED ON A WHEN-ISSUED BASIS AND FORWARD COMMITMENTS--The Fund
may purchase securities on a when-issued basis when deemed by the Adviser to
present attractive investment opportunities. When-issued securities are
purchased for delivery beyond the normal settlement date at a stated price and
yield, thereby involving the risk that the yield obtained will be less than
that available in the market at delivery. Although the purchase of securities
on a when-issued basis is not considered leveraging, it has the effect of
leveraging. When the Adviser purchases a when-issued security, the Custodian
will set aside cash or liquid securities to satisfy the purchase commitment.
The Fund generally will not pay for such securities or earn interest on them
until received. Commitments to purchase when-issued securities will not, under
normal market conditions, exceed 40% of the Fund's total assets, and a
commitment will not exceed 180 days. The Fund will only purchase when-issued
securities for the purpose of acquiring portfolio securities and not for
speculative purposes.
In a forward commitment transaction, the Fund contracts to purchase securities
for a fixed price at a future date beyond customary settlement time. The Fund
is required to hold and maintain in a segregated account until the settlement
date, cash, U.S. government securities or liquid high-grade debt obligations in
an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. Alternatively, the Fund may
enter into offsetting contracts for the forward sale of other securities that
it owns. The purchase of securities on a when-issued or forward commitment
basis involves a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased
declines prior to the settlement date. Although the Fund would generally
purchase securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis with the
intention of actually acquiring securities for its portfolio, the Fund may
dispose of a when-issued security or forward commitment prior to settlement if
the Adviser deems it appropriate to do so.
FUTURES CONTRACTS AND RELATED OPTIONS--The Fund may enter into futures
contracts, options on futures contracts, index futures and options thereon that
are traded on an exchange regulated by the Commodities Futures Trading
Commission ("CFTC") if, to the extent that such futures and options are not for
"bona fide hedging purposes" (as defined by the CFTC), the aggregate initial
margin and premiums on such positions (excluding the amount by which options
are in the money) do not exceed 5% of the Fund's total assets at current value.
The Fund, however, may invest more than such amount for bona fide hedging
purposes, and also may invest more than such amount if it obtains authority to
do so from the appropriate regulatory agencies without rendering the Fund a
commodity pool operator or adversely affecting its status as an investment
company for Federal securities law or income tax purposes.
The Fund may buy and sell futures contracts and related options to manage its
exposure to changing interest rates and security prices. Some futures
strategies, including selling futures, buying puts and writing calls, may
reduce the Fund's exposure to price fluctuations. Other strategies, including
buying futures, writing puts and buying calls, tend to increase market
exposure. Futures and options may be combined with each other in order to
adjust the risk and return characteristics of the overall portfolio. The Fund
expects to enter into these transactions to "lock in" a return or spread on a
particular investment or portion of its assets, to protect against any increase
in the price of securities the Fund anticipates purchasing at a later date, or
for other risk management strategies.
Options and futures can be volatile instruments, and involve certain risks. If
the Adviser applies a hedge at an inappropriate time or judges interest rates
incorrectly, options and futures strategies may lower the Fund's return. The
Fund could also experience losses if the prices of its options and futures
positions were poorly correlated with its other instruments, or if it could not
close out its positions because of an illiquid secondary market.
Typically, investment in these contracts requires the Fund to deposit with the
applicable exchange or other specified financial intermediary as a good faith
deposit for its obligations, known as "initial margin," an amount of cash or
specified debt securities that initially is 1%-15% of the face amount of the
contract and that thereafter fluctuates on a periodic basis as the value of the
contract fluctuates. Thereafter, the Fund must make additional deposits equal
to any net losses due to unfavorable price movements of the contract and will
be credited with an amount equal to any net gains due to favorable price
movements. These additional deposits or credits are calculated and required
daily and are known as "variation margin."
The SEC requires that when an investment company such as the Fund effects
transactions of the foregoing nature, it must either segregate cash or high
quality, readily marketable portfolio securities with its custodian in the
amount of its obligations under the foregoing transactions or must cover such
obligations by maintaining positions in portfolio securities, futures contracts
or options that would serve to satisfy or offset the risk of such obligations.
When effecting transactions of the foregoing nature, the Fund will comply with
such segregation or cover requirements. No limitation exists on the amount of
the Fund's assets that may be used to comply with such segregation or cover
requirements. Certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code may limit the use
of futures and related options transactions.
OPTION CONTRACTS - The Fund may purchase call and put options, and write (i.e.,
sell) covered call options and secured put options on securities and securities
indices. A call option gives the purchaser the right to buy, and obligates the
writer of the option to sell, the underlying security at the agreed upon
exercise (or "strike") price during the option period. A put option gives the
purchaser the right to sell, and obligates the writer to buy, the underlying
security at the strike price during the option period. Options are commonly
considered to be derivatives. The Fund may use options in hedging transactions
to protect against a decline in the market value of the securities in the Fund
and protect against an increase in the cost of fixed-income securities that the
Fund may seek to purchase. The Fund also may write call and put options as a
means of increasing the yield of the Fund and as a means of providing limited
protection against decreases in market value of the Fund. The risks associated
with options transactions are that the Adviser may incorrectly predict
movements in the prices of individual securities, fluctuations in markets, and
movements in interest rates. In addition, there may be imperfect correlation,
or no correlation, between the changes in market value of the securities held
in the Fund and the price of options. Further, there may not be a liquid
secondary market for the options. Finally, while the Fund will receive a
premium when it writes covered call options, it may not participate fully in a
rise in the market value of the underlying security.

SWAPS, CAPS AND FLOORS--In order to protect the value of the Fund from interest
rate fluctuations and to hedge against fluctuations in the floating rate market
in which the Fund's investments are traded, the Fund may enter into interest
rate swaps or mortgage rate swaps or purchase or sell interest rate caps or
floors.
The Fund expects to enter into these hedging transactions primarily to preserve
a return or spread on a particular investment or portion of its assets and to
protect against any increase in the price of securities the Fund anticipates
purchasing at a later date.
Swap contracts typically involve an exchange of obligations by two
sophisticated parties. For example, in an interest rate swap, the Fund may
exchange with another party their respective rights to receive interest, such
as an exchange of fixed rate payments for floating rate payments. Mortgage
swaps are similar to interest rate swaps in that they represent commitments to
pay and receive interest. The notional principal amount, however, is tied to a
reference pool or pools of mortgages.
Caps and floors are variations on swaps. The purchase of a cap entitles the
purchaser to receive a principal amount from the party selling the cap to the
extent that a specified index exceeds a predetermined interest rate or amount.
The purchase of an interest rate floor entitles the purchaser to receive
payments on a notional principal amount from the party selling the floor to the
extent that a specified index falls below a predetermined interest rate or
amount. Caps and floors are similar in many respects to over-the-counter
options transactions, and may involve investment risks that are similar to
those associated with options transactions and options on futures contracts.
Because swap contracts are individually negotiated, they remain the obligation
of the respective counter parties, and there is a risk that a counterpart will
be unable to meet its obligations under a particular swap contract. If a
counterpart defaults on a swap contract with the Fund, the Fund may suffer a
loss. To address this risk, the Fund will usually enter into interest rate
swaps on a net basis, which means that the two payment streams (one from the
Fund to the counterpart, one to the Fund from the counterpart) are netted out,
with the Fund receiving or paying, as the case may be, only the net amount of
the two payments. Interest rate swaps do not involve the delivery of
securities, other underlying assets, or principal. Accordingly, the risk of
loss with respect to interest rate swaps entered into on a net basis would be
limited to the net amount of the interest payments that the Fund is
contractually obligated to make. If the other party to an interest rate swap
defaults, the Fund's risk of loss consists of the net amount of interest
payments that the Fund is contractually entitled to receive.
In addition, because swap contracts are individually negotiated and ordinarily
non-transferable, there also may be circumstances in which it would be
impossible for the Fund to close out its obligations under the swap contract
prior to its maturity. Under such circumstances, the Fund might be able to
negotiate another swap contract with a different counterpart to offset the risk
associated with the first swap contract. Unless the Fund is able to negotiate
such an offsetting swap contract, however, the Fund could be subject to
continued adverse developments, even after the Adviser has determined that it
would be prudent to close out or offset the first swap contract.
The Fund will not enter into any mortgage swap, interest rate swap, cap or
floor transaction unless the unsecured commercial paper, senior debt or the
claims paying ability of the other party thereto is rated either AA or A-1 or
better by Standard & Poor's Corporation or Aa or P-1 or better by Moody's
Investors Service or, if unrated, is determined to be of comparable quality by
the Adviser. For a further description of these ratings, see the Statement of
Additional Information.
The use of swaps involves investment techniques and risks different from and
potentially greater than those associated with ordinary portfolio securities
transactions. If the Adviser is incorrect in its expectations of market values
or interest rates, the investment performance of the Fund would be less
favorable than it would have been if this investment technique were not used.
The staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission is presently considering
its position with respect to swaps, caps and floors as senior securities.
Pending a determination by the staff, the Fund will either treat swaps, caps
and floors as being subject to its senior securities restrictions or will
refrain from engaging in swaps, caps and floors. Once the staff has expressed a
position with respect to swaps, caps and floors, the Fund intends to engage in
swaps, caps and floors, if at all, in a manner consistent with such position.
To the extent the net amount of an interest rate or mortgage swap is held in a
segregated account, consisting of cash or liquid, high grade debt securities,
the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser believe that swaps do not constitute senior
securities under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and, accordingly, will not
treat them as being subject to the Fund's borrowing restrictions. The net
amount of the excess, if any, of the Fund's obligations over its entitlements
with respect to each interest rate swap will be accrued on a daily basis and an
amount of cash or liquid securities having an aggregate net asset value at
least equal to the accrued excess will be maintained in a segregated account by
the Fund's Custodian.
The Fund will generally limit its investments in swaps, caps and floors to 25%
of its total assets.
NEW FINANCIAL PRODUCTS--New futures contracts and other financial products, and
various combinations thereof, continue to be developed and the Fund may invest
in any such contracts and products as may be developed to the extent consistent
with its investment objective, policies and restrictions and the regulatory
requirements applicable to investment companies.
These various products may be used to adjust the risk and return
characteristics of the Fund's portfolio of investments. These various products
may increase or decrease exposure to security prices, interest rates or other
factors that affect security values, regardless of the issuer's credit risk. If
market conditions do not perform consistent with expectations, the performance
of the Fund would be less favorable than it would have been if these products
were not used. In addition, losses may occur if counter parties involved in
transactions do not perform as promised. These products may expose the Fund to
potentially greater return as well as potentially greater risk of loss than
more traditional fixed income investments.
28
<PAGE> 29
The Fund will generally limit its investments in new financial products to 25%
of its total assets.
INVERSE FLOATING RATE INSTRUMENTS--The Fund may seek to increase yield by
investing in leveraged inverse floating rate debt instruments ("inverse
floaters"). The interest rate on an inverse floater resets in the opposite
direction from the market rate of interest to which the inverse floater is
indexed. An inverse floater may be considered to be leveraged to the extent
that its interest rate varies by a magnitude that exceeds the magnitude of the
change in the index rate of interest. The higher degree of leverage inherent in
inverse floaters is associated with greater volatility in their market values.
Accordingly, the duration of an inverse floater may exceed its stated final
maturity. The Fund will generally limit its investments in inverse floating
rate instruments to 15% of its total assets.
FIXED RATE MORTGAGE LOANS--Generally, fixed rate mortgage loans eligible for
inclusion in a mortgage pool will bear simple interest at fixed annual rates
and have original terms to maturity ranging from 5 to 40 years. Fixed rate
mortgage loans generally provide for monthly payments of principal and interest
in substantially equal installments for the contractual term of the mortgage
note in sufficient amounts to fully amortize principal by maturity although
certain fixed rate mortgage loans provide for a large final balloon payment
upon maturity. The Fund may invest in fixed rate mortgage loans or mortgage
loan pools to enhance yield.
MISCELLANEOUS
The Trust believes that as of May 15, 1996, BANC ONE CORPORATION (100 East
Broad Street, Columbus, OH 43271), through its affiliates, owned of record
substantially all the Fiduciary Class shares of the Fund. The Trust believes
that as of the same date, BANC ONE CORPORATION, through its affiliates,
possessed on behalf of its underlying accounts, voting or investment power with
respect to 96.36% of the Fiduciary Class shares of the Fund. As a consequence,
BANC ONE CORPORATION may be deemed to be a controlling person of the Fiduciary
Class shares of the Fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
The Trust believes that as of May 15, 1996, Asher Land & Mineral Ltd., P.O. Box
463, Pineville, KY 40977-0463, and Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette Securities
Corporation, Inc., P.O. Box 2052, Jersey City, NJ 07303-2052, owned 25% or more
of the Class A shares of the Fund. As a consequence, Asher Land & Mineral Ltd.,
and Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette Securities Corporation, Inc. may be deemed to
be a controlling person of the Class A shares of the Fund under the Investment
Company Act of 1940.
PERFORMANCE
From time to time, the Fund may advertise yield, total return and/or
distribution rate. These figures will be based on historical earnings and are
not intended to indicate future performance. The yield of the Fund refers to
the annualized income generated by an investment in the Fund over a specified
30-day period. The yield is calculated by assuming that the income generated by
the investment during that period is generated over a one-year period and is
shown as a percentage of the investment.
Total return is the change in value of an investment in the Fund over a given
period, assuming reinvestment of any dividends and capital gains. A cumulative
total return reflects an actual rate of return over a stated period of time. An
average annual total return is a hypothetical rate of return that, if achieved
annually, would have produced the same cumulative total return if performance
had been constant over the entire period. Average annual total returns smooth
out variations in performance; they are not the same as actual year-by-year
results.
The distribution rate is computed by dividing the total amount of the dividends
per share paid out during the past period by the maximum offering price or
month-end net asset value depending on the class of the Fund. This figure is
then "annualized" (multiplied by 365 days and divided by the applicable number
of days in the period). Funds with a front-end sales charge would incorporate
the offering price into the distribution yield in place of month-end net asset
value.
Distribution rate is a measure of the level of income paid out in cash to
Shareholders over a specified period. It differs from yield and total return
and is not intended to be a complete measure of performance. Furthermore, the
distribution rate may include return of principal and/or capital gains. Total
return is the change in value of a hypothetical investment over a given period
assuming reinvestment of dividends and capital gain distributions. The yield
refers to the cumulative 30-day rolling net investment income, divided by
maximum offering price and multiplied by average shares outstanding during this
period. See the Statement of Additional Information.
The Trust will include information on all classes of shares of the Fund in any
advertisement or information including performance data for the Fund. The
performance for Fiduciary Class shares may be higher than for Class A shares
and Class B shares because Fiduciary Class shares are not subject to sales
charges and distribution expenses.
The performance of each class of the Fund may from time to time be compared to
that of other mutual funds tracked by mutual fund rating services, to that of
broad groups of comparable mutual funds or to that of unmanaged indices that
may assume investment of dividends but do not reflect deductions for
administrative and management costs. In addition, the performance of each class
of the Fund may be compared to other funds or to relevant indices that may
calculate total return without reflecting sales charges; in which case, the
Fund may advertise its total return in the same manner. If reflected, sales
charges would reduce these total return calculations.
Further information about the performance of each class of the Fund is
contained in the Trust's Annual Report to Shareholders for The One Group(R)
Ultra Short-Term Income Fund, which may be obtained without charge by calling
1-800-480-4111.

TAXES
The following summary of Federal income tax consequences is based on current
tax laws and regulations, which may be changed by legislative, judicial, or
administrative action. No attempt has been made to present a complete
explanation of the Federal, state, local or foreign tax treatment of the Fund
or its Shareholders. Accordingly, Shareholders are urged to consult their tax
advisers regarding specific questions as to the tax consequences of investing
in the Fund.
TAX STATUS OF THE FUND
The Fund is treated as a separate entity for Federal income tax purposes and is
not combined with the Trust's other funds. The Fund intends to qualify as a
"regulated investment company" for Federal income tax purposes and to meet all
other requirements that are necessary for it to be relieved of Federal taxes on
that part of its net investment income and net capital gains (the excess of net
long-term capital gain over net short-term capital loss) that is distributed to
Shareholders.
TAX STATUS OF DISTRIBUTIONS
The Fund will distribute substantially all of its net investment income
(including, for this purpose, net short-term capital gain) to Shareholders of
each class of shares of the Fund on at least an annual basis. Generally,
dividends from net investment income will be taxable to Shareholders as
ordinary income whether received in cash or in additional shares, and any net
capital gains will be distributed at least annually and will be taxed to
Shareholders as long-term capital gains, regardless of how long the Shareholder
has held shares.
Distributions by the Fund to retirement plans that qualify for tax-exempt
treatment under the Code ("qualified retirement plans") will not be taxable.
The Federal tax treatment of qualified retirement plans, as well as
distributions from such plans, is governed by specific provisions of the Code.
If shares are held by a retirement plan that ceases to qualify for tax-exempt
treatment under the Code or by an individual who has received such shares as a
distribution from a retirement plan, the Fund's distributions will be taxable
to such plan or individual as described in the preceding paragraph. Persons
considering directing the investment of their qualified retirement plan account
in the Fund and qualified retirement plan trusts considering purchasing such
shares, should consult their tax advisers for a more complete explanation of
the Federal tax consequences, and for an explanation of the state, local and
(if applicable) foreign tax consequences of making such an investment.
The Fund will make annual reports to Shareholders of the Federal income tax
status of all distributions.
Certain securities purchased by the Fund (such as STRIPS, CUBES, TRS, TIGRS and
CATS), as defined in the "Description of Permitted Investments," are sold at
original issue discount and thus do not make periodic cash interest payments.
The Fund will be required to include as part of its current income the imputed
interest on such obligations even though the Fund has not received any interest
payments on such obligations during that period. Because the Fund distributes
substantially all of its net investment income to its Shareholders (including
such imputed interest), the Fund may have to sell portfolio securities in order
to generate the cash necessary for the required distributions. Such sales may
occur at a time when the Adviser would not have chosen to sell such securities
and may result in a taxable gain or loss.
Fund transactions in foreign currencies and hedging activities will likely
produce a difference between book income and taxable income. This difference
may cause a portion of the Fund's income distributions to constitute a return
of capital for tax purposes or require the Fund to make distributions exceeding
book income to qualify as a regulated investment company.
Dividends declared by the Fund in October, November or December of any year and
payable to Shareholders of record on a date in such a month will be deemed to
have been paid by the Fund and received by Shareholders on December 31 of that
year, if paid by the Fund at any time during the following January.
Dividends received by a Shareholder that are derived from the Fund's
investments in U.S. government obligations may not be entitled to the
exemptions from state and local income taxes that would be available if the
Shareholder had purchased U.S. government obligations directly. The Fund will
inform Shareholders annually of the percentage of income and distributions
derived from U.S. government obligations. Shareholders should consult their tax
advisers regarding the state and local tax treatment of the dividends received
from the Fund.
Sale, exchange, or redemption of Fund shares by a Shareholder will generally be
a taxable event to such Shareholder.

(1) A person who purchases shares through an account with a financial
institution or broker/dealer may be charged separate transaction fees
by the financial institution or broker/dealer. In addition, a wire
redemption charge, currently $7.00, is deducted from the amount of a
wire redemption payment made at the request of a Shareholder.
(2) A person who purchases $1 million or more of Class A shares and is not
assessed a sales charge at the time of purchase, will be assessed a
sales charge equivalent to 1% of the purchase price if such purchaser
redeems any or all of the Class A shares prior to the first
anniversary of purchase.
(3) The expense information in the table has been restated to reflect
current fees that would have been applicable had they been in effect
during the previous fiscal year.
(4) Investment Advisory Fees have been revised to reflect fee waivers
effective as of the date of this Prospectus. The Adviser may
voluntarily agree to waive a part of its fees. Absent this voluntary
reduction, Investment Advisory Fees would be .60% for all classes of
shares.
(5) Absent the voluntary waiver of fees under the Trust's Distribution and
Shareholder Services Plans, 12b-1 fees (as a percentage of average
daily net assets) would be .35% for Class A shares. The 12b-1 fees
include a Shareholder servicing fee of .25% of the average daily net
assets of the Fund's Class B shares and may include a Shareholder
servicing fee of .25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's
Class A shares. See "The Distributor."
(6) Total Operating Expenses have been revised to reflect fee waivers
effective as of the date of this Prospectus. Absent the voluntary
reduction of Investment Advisory and 12b-1 fees, Total Operating
Expenses would be 1.30% for Class A Shares, 1.95% for Class B Shares
and, .95% for Fiduciary Class Shares.
EXAMPLE: An investor would pay the following expenses on a $1,000 investment in
Class A and Fiduciary Class shares of the Fund, assuming: (1) imposition of the
maximum sales charge for Class A shares; (2) 5% annual return; and (3)
redemption at the end of each time period.

Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares after eight (8) years.
Therefore, the "10 Years" examples above reflect the effect of such conversion.
THESE EXAMPLES SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED A REPRESENTATION OF PAST OR FUTURE
EXPENSES AND ACTUAL EXPENSES MAY BE GREATER OR LESS THAN THOSE SHOWN. The
purpose of these tables is to assist the investor in understanding the various
costs and expenses that may be directly or indirectly borne by investors in the
Trust.
The rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") require that
the maximum sales charge be reflected in the above table. However, investors of
the Fund ("Shareholders") may, under certain circumstances, qualify for reduced
sales charges. See "How to Invest in The One Group(R)." Long-term Shareholders
of Class A shares and Class B shares may pay more than the equivalent of the
maximum front-end sales charges otherwise permitted by the National Association
of Securities Dealers' Rules.
THE FUND
The One Group(R) Income Fund ( the "Fund") is part of The One Group(R) (the
"Trust"), which is an open-end management investment company that offers units
of beneficial interest ("shares") in 39 separate funds and different classes of
certain of the funds. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts Business Trust
on May 23, 1985. This Prospectus relates to Class A, Class B and Fiduciary
Class shares of The One Group(R) Income Fund, which provide for variations in
distribution costs, voting rights, dividends and per share net asset value
pursuant to a multiple class plan (the "Multiple Class Plan") adopted by the
Board of Trustees of the Trust. Except for these differences between classes,
each share of the Fund represents an undivided, proportionate interest in the
Fund. The Fund is a diversified mutual fund. Information regarding the Trust's
other funds and their classes is contained in separate prospectuses which may
be obtained from the Trust's Distributor, The One Group(R) Services Company,
3435 Stelzer Road, Columbus, OH 43219, or by calling 1-800-480-4111.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
The Fund seeks a high level of current income by investing in a diversified
portfolio of high, medium and lower grade debt securities. Capital appreciation
is a secondary objective.
The investment objective of the Fund is fundamental and may not be changed
without a vote of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding shares
(as defined in the Statement of Additional Information).
Because the Fund may invest a portion of its assets in securities that are
considered speculative by traditional investment standards, an investment in
the Fund should represent only a portion of a balanced investment program for
most investors.

INVESTMENT POLICIES
The investment policies of the Fund may be changed without an affirmative vote
of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding shares unless a policy
is expressly deemed to be fundamental or is expressly deemed to be changeable
only by such a majority vote.
PERMISSIBLE INVESTMENTS
The Fund will normally invest at least 70% of its total assets in (i) corporate
debt securities rated at the time of purchase in one of the four highest rating
categories by at least one nationally recognized statistical rating
organization ("NRSRO"); (ii) securities issued or guaranteed by the United
States Government or its agencies or instrumentalities; (iii) securities
(payable in U.S. dollars) of foreign governments, agencies of foreign
governments or foreign corporations rated at the time of purchase in one of the
four highest rating categories by at least one NRSRO; (iv) obligations of, or
guaranteed by, U.S. banks, savings and loan institutions and their holding
companies which, although unrated, are determined by the Adviser to be of
comparable quality to securities rated at the time of purchase in one of the
four highest rating categories by at least one NRSRO; and (v) commercial paper
and cash and cash equivalents. In addition, up to 30% of the Fund's total
assets may be invested in lower rated debt securities, convertible securities,
preferred stock, common stock, rights and warrants. Under normal market
conditions, the Fund's effective weighted average maturity will range between
five and twenty years, taking into consideration expected prepayments of
principal on select investments. The Fund may shorten its effective weighted
average maturity to as little as one year if deemed appropriate for temporary
defensive purposes. For purposes of this policy "bonds" include debt
instruments issued by the U.S. Treasury, U.S. government agencies,
corporations, municipalities and foreign entities, mortgage-related securities,
asset-backed securities and zero coupon obligations.
Debt securities and preferred stock generally will be rated in one of the four
highest rating categories by at least one NRSRO at the time of investment (for
example, BBB or better by Standard & Poor's Corporation ("S&P") or Baa by
Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's") or, if unrated, determined by the Adviser
to be of comparable quality. However, the Adviser reserves the right to invest
in debt securities and preferred stock which present attractive opportunities
and are rated below the fourth highest rating category by at least one NRSRO at
the time of investment (for example, BB or lower by S&P or Ba or lower by
Moody's) or, if unrated, determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality.
Securities rated BB or lower by S&P or Ba or lower by Moody's are deemed by
these rating services to have speculative characteristics. The Fund may invest
in debt securities in all rating categories. However, the Fund intends to limit
its investments in securities rated below BB or Ba to no more than 20% of its
total assets at the time of purchase. For a description of ratings, see
"Description of Ratings."
In addition to the permissible investments described above, the Fund also may
invest in commercial paper, time deposits, certificates of deposit,
mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, securities purchased on a
when-issued basis and forward commitments, variable and floating rate notes,
receipts, which may include Treasury Receipts ("TRS"), Treasury Investment
Growth Receipts ("TIGRS") and Certificates of Accrual on Treasury Securities
("CATS"), U.S. Treasury obligations, which may include Separately Traded
Registered Interest and Principal Securities ("STRIPS") and Coupon Under Book
Entry Safekeeping ("CUBES"), repurchase agreements, reverse repurchase
agreements, investment company securities, restricted securities, and mortgage
dollar rolls. As further described under the "Description of Permitted
Investments," the Fund may use the following investment instruments and/or
techniques: options, futures contracts, options on futures contracts,
securities subject to demand features, swap transactions, municipal securities,
structured instruments, multiple class pass-through securities and
collateralized mortgage obligations ("CMOs"), real estate mortgage investment
conduits ("REMICs"), adjustable rate mortgage loans ("ARMs"), stripped
mortgage-backed securities, fixed rate mortgage loans, inverse floating rate
instruments, guaranteed investment contracts, corporate securities, zero coupon
bonds, foreign securities, including sponsored and unsponsored American
Depository Receipts ("ADRs"), municipal leases, and the Fund may also engage in
securities lending transactions.
In addition to those instruments and techniques listed above, the Fund may
invest in new options, futures contracts and other financial products that may
be developed, to the extent that these products are consistent with the Fund's
investment objective and policies.
This list of permissible investments includes select securities that may be
commonly considered to be derivatives, including: mortgage dollar rolls,
options, futures contracts, options on futures contracts, multiple class
pass-through securities and collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs and
REMICs), stripped mortgage-backed securities (IOs and POs), inverse floating
rate instruments, asset-backed securities, swap, cap and floor transactions,
new financial products and structured instruments. These securities and
limitations on their use are more fully described in the "Description of
Permitted Investments."
For a description of the Fund's permitted investments and ratings see
"Description of Permitted Investments" and "Description of Ratings" and the
Statement of Additional Information. For a description of permitted investments
for temporary defensive

purposes see "Temporary Defensive Position." In the event a security owned by
the Fund is downgraded below these rating categories, the Adviser will review
and take appropriate action with regard to the security.
RISK FACTORS
The market value of the Fund's fixed-income investments will change in response
to interest rate changes and other factors. During periods of falling interest
rates, the values of outstanding fixed-income securities generally rise.
Conversely, during periods of rising interest rates, the values of such
securities generally decline. Moreover, while securities with longer maturities
tend to produce higher yields, the prices of longer maturity securities are
also subject to greater market fluctuations as a result of changes in interest
rates. Changes by recognized agencies in the rating of any fixed-income
security and in the ability of an issuer to make payments of interest and
principal also affect the value of these investments. Except under condition of
default, changes in the value of portfolio securities will not affect cash
income derived from these securities but will affect the Fund's net asset
value.
Municipal securities rated in the fourth highest rating category by an NRSRO
are generally considered to be investment grade, although S&P indicates that
such municipal securities have speculative characteristics. Changes in economic
conditions or other circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened
capacity of the issuers of such securities to make principal and interest
payments than is the case with higher grade securities.
The high yield bonds in which the Fund may invest are regarded as predominately
speculative with respect to the issuer's continuing ability to meet principal
and interest payments. High yield bonds also are known as junk bonds. Because
investments in lower rated securities involve greater investment risk,
achievement of the Fund's investment objectives may be more dependent on the
Adviser's credit analysis than would be the case if the Fund were investing in
higher rated securities. High yield bonds may be more susceptible to real or
perceived adverse economic and competitive industry conditions than investment
grade securities. A projection of an economic downturn, for example, could
cause a decline in high yield prices because the advent of a recession could
lessen the ability of a highly leveraged company to make principal and interest
payments on its debt securities. In addition, the secondary trading market for
high yield securities may be less liquid than the market for higher grade
securities. The market prices of debt securities also generally fluctuate with
changes in interest rates so that the Fund's net asset value can be expected to
decrease as long-term interest rates rise and to increase as long-term rates
fall. The above risks may be increased by investments in debt securities not
producing immediate cash income, such as zero-coupon securities. The Fund may
seek to hedge investments through transactions in options, futures contracts
and related options. For further discussion of the risks associated with these
investments, see "Description of Permitted Investments - High Yield
Securities."
The investment characteristics of mortgage-related securities differ from
traditional debt securities. These differences can result in significantly
greater price and yield volatility than is the case with traditional
fixed-income securities. The major differences typically include more frequent
interest and principal payments, usually monthly, the adjustability of interest
rates, and the possibility that prepayments of principal may be made at any
time. Under certain interest rate and prepayment rate scenarios, the Fund may
fail to recoup fully its investment in mortgage-related securities
notwithstanding a direct or indirect governmental or agency guarantee. The Fund
may to use hedging techniques to control this risk. In general, changes in the
rate of prepayments on a mortgage-related security will change that security's
market value and its yield to maturity. When interest rates fall, high
prepayments could force the Fund to reinvest principal at a time when
investment opportunities are not attractive. Thus, mortgage-related securities
may not be an effective means for the Fund to lock in long-term interest rates.
Conversely, during periods when interest rates rise, slow prepayments could
cause the average life of the security to lengthen and the value to decline
more than anticipated.
Certain investment management techniques that the Fund may use may expose the
Fund to special risks. These include, but are not limited to, engaging in
hedging transactions (including mortgage and interest rate swaps and interest
rate floors and caps), purchasing and selling futures and options, making
forward commitments, purchasing structured instruments, lending portfolio
securities and entering into mortgage dollar rolls. These practices could
expose the Fund to potentially greater risk of loss than more traditional
fixed-income investments.
Investments in securities of foreign issuers may involve greater risks than are
present in U.S. investments. In general, issuers in many foreign countries may
not be subject to accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards,
practices and requirements comparable to those applicable to U.S. companies.
There may be less information publicly available about and less regulation of
foreign issuers than U.S. companies. Transaction costs may be higher for
investments in foreign issuers. Securities of some foreign companies are less
liquid, and their prices more volatile, than securities of comparable U.S.
companies. The values of foreign securities may be affected (favorably or
unfavorably) by changes in currency exchange rates. Settlement of transactions
in some foreign markets may be delayed or may be less frequent than in the
United States, which could adversely affect the liquidity of the Fund. In
addition, with respect to some foreign countries, there are the possibilities
of expropriation or confiscatory taxation, the imposition of additional taxes
or tax withholding, limitations on the removal of securities, property or other
assets of the Fund, political or social instability, and diplomatic
developments, which could affect the value of investments in those countries.
For additional information on each of the Fund's permitted investments and
associated risks, see "Description of Permitted Investments."

HOW TO DO BUSINESS WITH
THE ONE GROUP(R)
HOW TO INVEST IN THE ONE GROUP(R)
Shares of the Fund are sold on a continuous basis and may be purchased directly
from the Trust's Distributor, The One Group(R) Services Company, by mail, by
telephone, or by wire. Shares may also be purchased through a financial
institution, such as a bank, savings and loan association or insurance company
(each a "Shareholder Servicing Agent"), that has established a Shareholder
servicing agreement with the Distributor, or through a broker-dealer that has
established a dealer agreement with the Distributor.
Purchases and redemptions of shares of the Fund may be made on any day that the
New York Stock Exchange is open for trading ("Business Days"). The minimum
initial and subsequent investments in the Fund are $1,000 and $100 respectively
($100 and $25, respectively, for employees of BANC ONE CORPORATION and its
affiliates). Initial and subsequent investment minimums may be waived at the
Distributor's discretion. Investors may purchase up to a maximum of $250,000 of
Class B shares per individual purchase order.
Class A and Class B shares are offered to the general public. Fiduciary Class
shares are offered to institutional investors, including affiliates of BANC ONE
CORPORATION and any bank, depository institution, insurance company, pension
plan or other organization authorized to act in fiduciary, advisory, agency,
custodial or similar capacities (each an "Authorized Financial Organization").
For additional details regarding eligibility, call the Distributor at
1-800-480-4111.
BY MAIL
Investors may purchase Class A and Class B shares of the Fund by completing and
signing an Account Application Form and mailing it, along with a check (or
other negotiable bank instrument or money order) payable to "The One Group(R),"
to State Street Bank and Trust Company (the Trust's Transfer Agent and
Custodian), P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500. Subsequent purchases of
shares may be made at any time by mailing a check to the Transfer Agent.
Account Application Forms are available through the Distributor by calling
1-800-480-4111. All purchases made by check should be in U.S. dollars. Third
party checks will not be accepted. When purchases are made by check or under
the Systematic Invesment Plan (see below), redemptions will not be allowed
until the investment being redeemed has been in the Fund for 15 calendar days.
Purchases of Fiduciary Class shares are made by an institutional investor
and/or other intermediary on behalf of an investor (each also a "Shareholder
Servicing Agent"). The Shareholder Servicing Agent may require an investor to
complete forms in addition to the Account Application Form and to follow
procedures established by the Shareholder Servicing Agent. Such Shareholders
should contact their Shareholder Servicing Agents regarding purchases,
exchanges and redemptions of shares. See "Additional Information Regarding
Purchases."
BY TELEPHONE OR BY WIRE
Once an Account Application Form has been received, Shareholders are eligible
to make purchases by telephone or wire (if that option has been selected by a
Shareholder) by calling the Transfer Agent at 1-800-480-4111 or the Shareholder
Servicing Agents, if applicable.
Shareholders may revoke their automatic eligibility to make purchases and/or
redemptions by telephone or by wire, by sending a letter so stating to the
Transfer Agent, State Street Bank and Trust Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA
02266-8500.
SYSTEMATIC INVESTMENT PLAN
Class A and Class B investors may make automatic monthly investments in the
Fund from their bank, savings and loan or other depository institution
accounts. The minimum initial and subsequent investments must be $25 under the
Systematic Investment Plan, which minimum may be waived at the discretion of
the Distributor. The Trust pays the costs associated with these transfers, but
reserves the right, upon thirty days' written notice, to impose reasonable
charges for this service. A depository institution may impose a charge for
debiting an investor's account which would reduce the investor's return from an
investment in the Fund.

FUND-DIRECT IRA
The Trust offers a tax-advantaged retirement plan for which the Fund may be an
appropriate investment. The Trust's retirement plan allows participants to
defer taxes while helping them build their retirement savings.
The One Group Fund-Direct IRA is a retirement plan with a wide choice of
investments offering people with earned income the opportunity to compound
earnings on a tax-deferred basis. An IRA Adoption Agreement may be obtained by
calling the Distributor at 1-800-480-4111.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING PURCHASES
A purchase order will be effective as of the day received by the Distributor if
the Distributor receives the order before 4:00 p.m., eastern time. However, an
order may be canceled if the Transfer Agent does not receive Federal funds
before close of business on the next Business Day for Fiduciary Class shares,
and before the close of business on the third Business Day for Class A and
Class B shares, and the investor could be liable for any fees or expenses
incurred by the Trust. Federal funds are monies credited to a bank's account
with a Federal Reserve Bank. The purchase price of shares of the Fund is the
net asset value next determined after a purchase order is effected plus any
applicable sales charge (the "offering price"). The net asset value per share
of the Fund is determined by dividing the total market value of the Fund's
investments and other assets allocable to a class, less any liabilities
allocable to that class, by the total number of outstanding shares of such
class. Net asset value per share is determined daily as of 4:00 p.m., eastern
time, on each Business Day. For a further discussion of the calculation of net
asset value, see the Statement of Additional Information. Shares may also be
issued in transactions involving the acquisition by the Fund of securities held
by collective investment funds sponsored and administered by affiliates of the
Adviser. Purchases will be made in full and fractional shares of the Fund
calculated to three decimal places. Although the methodology and procedures
are identical, the net asset value per share of classes within the Fund may
differ because the distribution expenses charged to Class A shares and Class B
shares are not charged to Fiduciary Class shares.
The Trust reserves the right to reject a purchase order when the Distributor
determines that it is not in the best interest of the Trust and/or its
Shareholders to accept such order. Except as provided below, neither the
Trust's Transfer Agent nor the Trust will be responsible for any loss,
liability, cost or expense for acting upon telephone or wire instructions, and
the investor will bear all risk of loss. The Trust will employ reasonable
procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine,
including requiring a form of personal identification prior to acting upon
instructions received by telephone and recording telephone instructions. If
such procedures are not employed, the Trust may be liable for any losses due to
unauthorized or fraudulent instructions.
Fiduciary Class shares offered to institutional investors and to investors in
certain retirement plans and Class A shares that are being offered to investors
in certain retirement plans such as 401(K) and similar plans, other than
Retirement Accounts, will normally be held in the name of the Shareholder
Servicing Agent effecting the purchase on the Shareholder's behalf, and it is
the Shareholder Servicing Agent's responsibility to transmit purchase orders to
the Distributor. A Shareholder Servicing Agent may impose an earlier cut-off
time for receipt of purchase orders directed through it to allow for processing
and transmittal of these orders to the Distributor for effectiveness the same
day. The Shareholder should contact his or her Shareholder Servicing Agent for
information as to the Shareholder Servicing Agent's procedures for transmitting
purchase, exchange or redemption orders to the Trust. A Shareholder who desires
to transfer the registration of shares beneficially owned by him or her, but
held of record by a Shareholder Servicing Agent, should contact the Shareholder
Servicing Agent to accomplish such change. Other Shareholders who desire to
transfer the registration of their shares should contact the Transfer Agent.
No certificates representing shares of the Fund will be issued. In
communications to Shareholders, the Fund will not duplicate mailings of Fund
material to Shareholders who reside at the same address.
SALES CHARGE
The following table shows the initial sales charge on Class A shares to a
"single purchaser" (defined below) together with the sales charge reallowed to
financial institutions and intermediaries (the "commission"):

</TABLE>
The commissions shown in the table apply to sales through financial
institutions and intermediaries. Under certain circumstances, the Distributor
will use its own funds to compensate financial institutions and intermediaries
in amounts that are additional to the commissions shown above. The maximum cash
compensation payable by the Distributor as a sales charge is 4.50% of the
offering price (including the commission shown above and additional cash
compensation described below). In addition, the Distributor will, from time to
time and at its own expense, provide promotional incentives to financial
institutions and intermediaries, whose registered representatives have sold or
are expected to sell significant amounts of the shares of the Fund, in the form
of payment for travel expenses, including lodging, incurred in connection with
trips taken by qualifying registered representatives to places within or
outside the United States, and additional compensation in an amount up to 1.00%
of the offering price of Class A shares of the Fund for sales of $1 million to
$5 million, and 0.50% for sales over $5 million. An investor who purchases $1
million or more of Class A shares and is not assessed a sales charge at the
time of purchase, will be assessed a sales charge equivalent to 1% of the
purchase price if such investor redeems any or all of the Class A shares prior
to the first anniversary of purchase. Under certain circumstances, commissions
up to the amount of the entire sales charge will be reallowed to financial
institutions and intermediaries, which might then be deemed to be
"underwriters" under the Securities Act of 1933.
RIGHT OF ACCUMULATION
In calculating the sales charge rates applicable to current purchases of Class
A shares, a "single purchaser" is entitled to cumulate current purchases with
the current value at the offering price of previously purchased Class A and
Class B shares of the Fund and other eligible funds of the Trust, other than
the Trust's money market funds, that are sold subject to a comparable sales
charge.
The term "single purchaser" refers to (i) an individual, (ii) an individual and
spouse purchasing shares of the Fund for their own account or for trust or
custodial accounts for their minor children, or (iii) a fiduciary purchasing
for any one trust, estate or fiduciary account, including employee benefit
plans created under Sections 401 or 457 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code"), and including related plans of the same employer. To
be entitled to a reduced sales charge based upon shares already owned, the
investor must ask the Distributor for such reduction at the time of purchase
and provide the account number(s) of the investor, the investor and spouse, and
their minor children, and give the age of such children. The Fund may amend or
terminate this right of accumulation at any time as to subsequent purchases.
LETTER OF INTENT
By initially investing at least $2,000 in Class A shares of one or more funds
that impose a comparable sales charge over the next 13 months, the sales charge
may be reduced by completing the Letter of Intent section of the Account
Application Form. The Letter of Intent includes a provision for a sales charge
adjustment depending on the amount actually purchased within the 13-month
period. In addition, pursuant to a Letter of Intent, the Custodian will hold in
escrow the difference between the sales charge applicable to the amount
initially purchased and the sales charge paid at the time of investment, which
is based on the amount covered by the Letter of Intent.
For example, assume an investor signs a Letter of Intent to purchase $250,000
in Class A shares of one (or more) of the funds of the Trust that imposes a
comparable sales charge and, at the time of signing the Letter of Intent,
purchases $100,000 of Class A shares of one of these funds. The investor would
pay an initial sales charge of 2.50% (the sales charge applicable to purchases
of $250,000) and 1.00% of the investment (representing the difference between
the 3.50% sales charge applicable to purchases of $100,000 and the 2.50% sales
charge already paid) would be held in escrow until the investor has purchased
the remaining $150,000 or more in Class A shares under the investor's Letter of
Intent.
10
<PAGE> 45
The amount held in escrow will be applied to the investor's account at the end
of the 13-month period unless the amount specified in the Letter of Intent is
not purchased. In order to qualify for a Letter of Intent, the investor will be
required to make a minimum purchase of at least $2,000.
The Letter of Intent will not obligate the investor to purchase Class A shares,
but if he or she does, each purchase during the period will be at the sales
charge applicable to the total amount intended to be purchased. The Letter of
Intent may be dated as of a prior date to include any purchases made within the
past 90 days.
OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES
No sales charge is imposed on Class A shares of the Fund: (i) issued through
reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions; (ii) acquired
through the exercise of exchange privileges where a comparable sales charge has
been paid for exchanged shares; (iii) purchased by officers, directors or
trustees, retirees and employees (and their spouses and immediate family
members) of the Trust, of BANC ONE CORPORATION and its subsidiaries and
affiliates, of the Distributor and its subsidiaries and affiliates, or of an
investment sub-adviser of a fund of the Trust and such sub-adviser's
subsidiaries and affiliates; (iv) sold to affiliates of BANC ONE CORPORATION
and certain accounts (other than Individual Retirement Accounts) for which
Authorized Financial Organizations act in fiduciary, advisory, agency,
custodial or similar capacities, or purchased by investment advisers, financial
planners or other intermediaries who have a dealer arrangement with the
Distributor, who place trades for their own accounts or for the accounts of
their clients and who charge a management, consulting or other fee for their
services, as well as clients of such investment advisers, financial planners or
other intermediaries who place trades for their own accounts if the accounts
are linked to the master account of such investment adviser, financial planner
or other intermediary; (v) purchased with proceeds from the recent redemption
of Fiduciary Class shares of a fund of the Trust or acquired in an exchange of
Fiduciary Class shares of a fund for Class A shares of the same fund; (vi)
purchased with proceeds from the recent redemption of shares of a mutual fund
(other than a fund of the Trust) for which a sales charge was paid; (vii)
purchased in an Individual Retirement Account with the proceeds of a
distribution from an employee benefit plan, provided that, at the time of
distribution, the employee benefit plan had plan assets invested in a fund of
the Trust; (viii) purchased with Trust assets; (ix) purchased in accounts as to
which a bank or broker-dealer charges an asset allocation fee, provided the
bank or broker-dealer has an agreement with the Distributor; (x) directly
purchased with the proceeds of a distribution on a bond for which a Banc One
Corporation affiliate bank or trust company is the Trustee or Paying Agent; or
(xi) purchased in connection with plans of reorganization of the Fund, such as
mergers, asset acquisitions and exchange offers to which the Fund is a party.
An investor relying upon any of the categories of waivers of the sales charge
must qualify for such waiver in advance of the purchase with the Distributor or
the financial institution or intermediary through which shares are purchased by
the investor.
The waiver of the sales charge under circumstances (v), (vi) and (vii) above
applies only if the purchase is made within 60 days of the redemption or
distribution and if conditions imposed by the Distributor are met. The waiver
policy with respect to the purchase of shares through the use of proceeds from
a recent redemption or distribution as described in clauses (v), (vi) and (vii)
above will not be continued indefinitely and may be discontinued at any time
without notice. Investors should call the Distributor at 1-800-480-4111 to
determine whether they are eligible to purchase shares without paying a sales
charge through the use of proceeds from a recent redemption or distribution as
described above, and to confirm continued availability of these waiver policies
prior to initiating the procedures described in clauses (v), (vi) and (vii).
ALTERNATIVE SALES ARRANGEMENTS
CLASS B SHARES
Class B shares are not subject to a sales charge when they are purchased, but
are subject to a sales charge (the "Contingent Deferred Sales Charge") if a
Shareholder redeems them prior to the sixth anniversary of purchase. When a
Shareholder purchases Class B shares, the full purchase amount is invested
directly in the Fund. Class B shares of the Fund are subject to an ongoing
distribution and Shareholder service fee at an annual rate of 1.00% of the
Fund's average daily net assets as provided in the Class B Plan (described below
under "The Distributor"). This ongoing fee will cause Class B shares to have a
higher expense ratio and to pay lower dividends than Class A shares. Class B
shares convert automatically to Class A shares after eight years, commencing
from the end of the calendar month in which the purchase order was accepted
under the circumstances and subject to the qualifications described in this
Prospectus.
Proceeds from the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the distribution and
Shareholder service fees under the Class B Plan are payable to the Distributor
and financial intermediaries to defray the expenses of advance brokerage
commissions and expenses related to providing distribution-related and
Shareholder services to the Fund in connection with the sale of the Class B
shares,
11
<PAGE> 46
such as the payment of compensation to dealers and agents for selling Class B
shares. A dealer reallowance of 4.00% of the original purchase price of the
Class B shares will be paid to certain financial institutions and
intermediaries.
CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE
If the Shareholder redeems Class B shares prior to the sixth anniversary of
purchase, the Shareholder will pay a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge at the
rates set forth below. The Contingent Deferred Sales Charge is assessed on an
amount equal to the lesser of the then-current market value or the cost of the
shares being redeemed. Accordingly, no sales charge is imposed on increases in
net asset value above the initial purchase price. In addition, no charge is
assessed on shares derived from reinvestment of dividends or capital gain
distributions.
The amount of the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge, if any, varies depending on
the number of years from the time of payment for the purchase of Class B shares
until the time of redemption of such shares. Solely for purposes of determining
the number of years from the time of any payment for the purchase of shares,
all payments during a month are aggregated and deemed to have been made on the
first day of the month.

</TABLE>
In determining whether a particular redemption is subject to a Contingent
Deferred Sales Charge, it is assumed that the redemption is first of any Class
A shares in the Shareholder's Fund account (unless the Shareholder elects to
have Class B shares redeemed first) or shares representing capital
appreciation, next of shares acquired pursuant to reinvestment of dividends and
capital gain distributions, and finally of other shares held by the Shareholder
for the longest period of time. This method should result in the lowest
possible sales charge.
To provide an example, assume you purchased 100 shares at $10 per share (a
total cost of $1,000) and prior to the second anniversary after purchase, the
net asset value per share is $12 and during such time you have acquired 10
additional shares through dividends paid in shares. If you then make your first
redemption of 50 shares (proceeds of $600), 10 shares will not be subject to
charge because you received them as dividends. With respect to the remaining 40
shares, the charge is applied only to the original cost of $10 per share and
not to the increase in net asset value of $2 per share. Therefore, $400 of the
$600 redemption proceeds is subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge at a
rate of 4.00% (the applicable rate prior to the second anniversary after
purchase).
The Contingent Deferred Sales Charge is waived on redemption of shares: (i) for
distributions that are made under a Systematic Withdrawal Plan of the Trust and
that are limited to no more than 10% of the account value annually, determined
in the first year as of the date the redemption request is received by the
Transfer Agent, and in subsequent years, as of the most recent anniversary of
that date; (ii) following the death or disability (as defined in the Code) of a
Shareholder or a participant or beneficiary of a qualifying retirement plan if
redemption is made within one year of such death or disability; or (iii) to the
extent that the redemption represents a minimum required distribution from an
Individual Retirement Account or other qualifying retirement plan to a
Shareholder who has attained the age of 70 1/2. A Shareholder or his or her
representative should contact the Transfer Agent to determine whether a
retirement plan qualifies for a waiver and must notify the Transfer Agent prior
to the time of redemption if such circumstances exist and the Shareholder is
eligible for this waiver. In addition, the following circumstances are not
deemed to result in a "redemption" of Class B shares for purposes of the
assessment of a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge, which is therefore waived:
(i) plans of reorganization of the Fund, such as mergers, asset acquisitions
and exchange offers to which the Fund is a party; or (ii) exchanges for Class B
shares of other funds of the Trust as described under "Exchanges."

CONVERSION FEATURE
Class B shares include all shares purchased pursuant to the Contingent Deferred
Sales Charge which have been outstanding for less than the period ending eight
years after the end of the month in which the shares were purchased. At the end
of this period, Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares and
will be subject to the lower distribution and Shareholder service fees charged
to Class A shares. Such conversion will be on the basis of the relative net
asset values of the two classes, without the imposition of any sales charge,
fee or other charge. The conversion is not a taxable event to a Shareholder.
For purposes of conversion to Class A shares, shares received as dividends and
other distributions paid on Class B shares in a Shareholder's Fund account will
be considered to be held in a separate sub-account. Each time any Class B
shares in a Shareholder's Fund account (other than those in the sub-account)
convert to Class A shares, a pro-rata portion of the Class B shares in the
sub-account will also convert to Class A shares.
If a Shareholder effects one or more exchanges among Class B shares of the
funds of the Trust during the eight-year period, the Trust will aggregate the
holding periods for the shares of each fund of the Trust for purposes of
calculating that eight-year period. Because the per share net asset value of
the Class A shares may be higher than that of the Class B shares at the time of
conversion, a Shareholder may receive fewer Class A shares than the number of
Class B shares converted, although the dollar value will be the same.
EXCHANGES
CLASS A AND FIDUCIARY CLASS
Fiduciary Class Shareholders of the Fund may exchange their shares for Class A
shares or Fiduciary Class shares of another fund of the Trust. Fiduciary Class
Shareholders may not exchange their shares for Class A shares of the Fund.
Class A Shareholders may exchange their shares for Fiduciary Class shares of
the Fund or for Fiduciary Class shares or Class A shares of another fund of the
Trust, if the Shareholder is eligible to purchase such shares.
The exchange privilege may be exercised only in those states where the shares
of the Fund or such other fund of the Trust may be legally sold. All exchanges
discussed herein are made at the net asset value of the exchanged shares,
except as provided below. The Trust does not impose a charge for processing
exchanges of shares. If a Shareholder seeks to exchange Class A shares of a
fund that does not impose a sales charge for Class A shares of a fund that does
or the fund being exchanged into has a higher sales charge, the Shareholder
will be required to pay a sales charge in the amount equal to the difference
between the sales charge applicable to the fund into which the shares are being
exchanged and any sales charges previously paid for the exchanged shares,
including any sales charges incurred on any earlier exchanges of the shares
(unless such sales charge is otherwise waived, as provided in "Other
Circumstances"). The exchange of Fiduciary Class shares for Class A shares also
will require payment of the sales charge unless the sales charge is waived, as
provided in "Other Circumstances."
CLASS B
Class B Shareholders of the Fund may exchange their shares for Class B shares
of any other fund of the Trust on the basis of the net asset value of the
exchanged Class B shares, without the payment of any Contingent Deferred Sales
Charge that might otherwise be due upon redemption of the outstanding Class B
shares. The newly acquired Class B shares will be subject to the higher
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge of either the fund from which the shares were
exchanged or the fund into which the shares were exchanged. With respect to
outstanding Class B shares as to which previous exchanges have taken place,
"higher Contingent Deferred Sales Charge" shall mean the higher of the
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge applicable to either the fund the shares are
exchanging into or any other fund from which the shares previously have been
exchanged. For purposes of computing the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge that
may be payable upon a disposition of the newly acquired Class B shares, the
holding period for outstanding Class B shares of the fund from which the
exchange was made is "tacked" to the holding period of the newly acquired Class
B shares. For purposes of calculating the holding period applicable to the
newly acquired Class B shares, the newly acquired Class B shares shall be
deemed to have been issued on the date of receipt of the Shareholder's order to
purchase the outstanding Class B shares of the fund from which the initial
exchange was made.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING EXCHANGES
In the case of shares held of record by a Shareholder Servicing Agent but
beneficially owned by a Shareholder, to exchange such shares the Shareholder
should contact the Shareholder Servicing Agent, who will contact the Transfer
Agent and effect the
13
<PAGE> 48
exchange on behalf of the Shareholder. If an exchange request in good order is
received by the Transfer Agent by 4:00 p.m., eastern time, on any Business Day,
the exchange usually will occur on that day. Any Shareholder who wishes to make
an exchange must receive a current prospectus of the fund of the Trust in which
he or she wishes to invest before the exchange will be effected.
The Trust reserves the right to change the terms or conditions of the exchange
privilege discussed herein upon sixty days' written notice. An exchange between
classes of shares of the same fund is not considered a taxable event; however,
an exchange between funds of the Trust is considered a sale of shares and
usually results in a capital gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes.
Shareholders should consult their tax advisers for a more complete explanation
of the Federal income tax consequences of an exchange of shares of the Fund.
A more detailed description of the above is set forth in the Statement of
Additional Information.
REDEMPTIONS
Shareholders may redeem their shares without charge (except Class B shares, as
provided above) on any Business Day; shares may ordinarily be redeemed by mail,
by telephone or by wire. All redemption orders are effected at the net asset
value per share next determined for Fiduciary Class shares, and at net asset
value per share next determined reduced by any applicable Contingent Deferred
Sales Charge for Class B shares, after receipt of a valid request for
redemption. Payment to Shareholders for shares redeemed will be made within
seven days after receipt by the Transfer Agent of the request for redemption.
BY MAIL
A written request for redemption must be received by the Transfer Agent in
order to constitute a valid request for redemption. All written redemption
requests should be sent to The One Group(R), c/o State Street Bank and Trust
Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500, or the Shareholder Servicing
Agent, if applicable. The Transfer Agent may require that the signature on the
written request be guaranteed by a commercial bank, a member firm of a domestic
stock exchange, or by a member of the Securities Transfer Association Medallion
Program or the Stock Exchange Medallion Program.
The signature guarantee requirement will be waived if all of the following
conditions apply: (i) the redemption is for $5,000 worth of shares or less;
(ii) the redemption check is payable to the Shareholder(s) of record; and (iii)
the redemption check is mailed to the Shareholder(s) at the address of record.
The Shareholder may also have the proceeds mailed to a commercial bank account
previously designated on the Account Application Form or by written instruction
to the Transfer Agent or the Shareholder Servicing Agent, if applicable. There
is no charge for having redemption requests mailed to a designated bank
account.
BY TELEPHONE OR BY WIRE
Shareholders may have the payment of redemption requests wired or mailed to a
domestic commercial bank account previously designated on the Account
Application Form. Wire redemption requests may be made by the Shareholder by
telephone to the Transfer Agent at 1-800-480-4111, provided that the
Shareholder has elected the telephone redemption privilege in writing to the
Distributor, or to the Shareholder Servicing Agent, if applicable. The Transfer
Agent may reduce the amount of a wire redemption payment by its then-current
wire redemption charge, which, as of the date of this Prospectus, is $7.00.
Neither the Trust nor the Transfer Agent will be responsible for the
authenticity of the redemption instructions received by telephone if it
reasonably believes those instructions to be genuine. The Trust and the
Transfer Agent will each employ reasonable procedures to confirm that telephone
instructions are genuine, and may be liable for losses resulting from
unauthorized or fraudulent telephone transactions if it does not employ those
procedures. Such procedures may include requesting personal identification
information or recording telephone conversations.
SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PLAN
Shareholders whose accounts have a value of at least $10,000 may elect to
receive, or may designate another person to receive, monthly, quarterly or
annual payments in a specified amount of not less than $100 each. There is no
charge for this service. Under the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, all dividends
and distributions must be reinvested in shares of the Fund. Purchases of
additional Class A shares while the Systematic Withdrawal Plan is in effect are
generally undesirable because a sales charge is incurred whenever purchases are
made.
Pursuant to the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, Class B Shareholders may elect to
receive, or may designate another person to receive, distributions provided the
distributions are limited to no more than 10% of their account value annually
determined in
14
<PAGE> 49
the first year as of the date the redemption request is received by the
Transfer Agent, and in subsequent years, as of the most recent anniversary of
that date. In addition, Shareholders who have attained the age of 70 1/2 may
elect to receive distributions, to the extent that the redemption represents a
minimum required distribution from an Individual Retirement Account or other
qualifying retirement plan.
If the amount of systematic withdrawal exceeds income accrued since the
previous withdrawal under the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, the principal balance
invested will be reduced and shares will be redeemed.
OTHER INFORMATION REGARDING REDEMPTIONS
At various times, the Fund may be requested to redeem shares for which it has
not yet received good payment. In such circumstances, the forwarding of
proceeds may be delayed for 15 or more days until payment has been collected
for the purchase of such shares. The Fund intends to pay cash for all shares
redeemed.
Due to the relatively high costs of handling small investments, the Fund
reserves the right to redeem, at net asset value, the shares of any Shareholder
if, because of redemptions of shares by or on behalf of the Shareholder, the
account of such Shareholder in the Fund has a value of less than $1,000, the
minimum initial purchase amount. Accordingly, an investor purchasing shares of
the Fund in only the minimum investment amount may be subject to such
involuntary redemption if he or she thereafter redeems any of these shares.
Before the Fund exercises its right to redeem such shares and to send the
proceeds to the Shareholder, the Shareholder will be given notice that the
value of the shares in his or her account is less than the minimum amount and
will be allowed 60 days to make an additional investment in the Fund in an
amount which will increase the value of the account to at least $1,000.
See the Statement of Additional Information for examples of when the Trust may
suspend the right of redemption or redeem shares involuntarily if it appears
appropriate to do so in light of the Trust's responsibilities under the
Investment Company Act of 1940.
FUND MANAGEMENT
THE ADVISER
The Trust and Banc One Investment Advisors Corporation (the "Adviser") have
entered into an investment advisory agreement (the "Advisory Agreement"). Under
the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser makes the investment decisions for the
assets of the Fund and continuously reviews, supervises and administers the
Fund's investment program. The Adviser discharges its responsibilities subject
to the supervision of, and policies established by, the Trustees of the Trust.
The Trust's shares are not deposits or obligations of, or endorsed or
guaranteed by BANC ONE CORPORATION or its bank or non-bank affiliates. The
Trust's shares are not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation ("FDIC") or by any other governmental agency or government
sponsored agency of the Federal government or any state.
The Adviser is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of BANC ONE CORPORATION, a
bank holding company incorporated in the state of Ohio. BANC ONE CORPORATION
currently has affiliate banking organizations in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois,
Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Ohio, Oklahoma, Texas, Utah, West Virginia and
Wisconsin. In addition, BANC ONE CORPORATION has several affiliates that engage
in data processing, venture capital, investment and merchant banking, and other
diversified services including trust management, investment management,
brokerage, equipment leasing, mortgage banking, consumer finance and insurance.
On a consolidated basis, BANC ONE CORPORATION had assets of over $90.5 billion
as of December 31, 1995.
The Adviser represents a consolidation of the investment advisory staffs of a
number of bank affiliates of BANC ONE CORPORATION, which have considerable
experience in the management of open-end management investment company
portfolios, including The One Group(R) since 1985 (then known as "The Helmsman
Fund").
No single person is primarily responsible for managing the assets of the Fund.
Rather, all investment decisions with respect to the Fund are made by
committee. No single person is primarily responsible for making
recommendations to the committee.
The Adviser is entitled to a fee, which is calculated daily and paid monthly,
at an annual rate of .60% of the average daily net assets of the Fund. The
Adviser may voluntarily agree to waive a part of its fees. (See "About the Fund
- -- Expense Summary.") These fee waivers are voluntary and may be terminated at
any time. Shareholders will be notified in advance if and when these waivers
are terminated.
15
<PAGE> 50
THE DISTRIBUTOR
The One Group(R) Services Company (the "Distributor"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the BISYS Group, Inc., and the Trust are parties to a
distribution agreement (the "Distribution Agreement") under which shares of the
Fund are sold on a continuous basis.
Class A shares are subject to a distribution and Shareholder services plan (the
"Plan"). As provided in the Plan, the Trust will pay the Distributor a fee of
.35% of the average daily net assets of the Class A shares of the Fund. The
Distributor has voluntarily agreed to waive payments under the Plan for Class A
shares of the Fund for the period from the commencement of operations through
at least October, 1997.
Class B shares are subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge if such shares
are redeemed prior to the sixth anniversary of purchase. Class B shares of the
Fund are subject to an ongoing distribution and Shareholder service fee as
provided in the Class B distribution and Shareholder services plan (the "Class
B Plan") at an annual rate of 1.00% of the Fund's average daily net assets,
which includes Shareholder servicing fees of .25% of the Fund's average daily
net assets. Currently, the Distributor has voluntarily agreed to limit payments
under the Class B Plan to .90% of the average daily net assets of the Class B
shares of the Fund.
Proceeds from the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the distribution and the
Shareholder service fees under the Class B Plan are payable to the Distributor
and financial intermediaries to defray the expenses of advance brokerage
commissions and expenses related to providing distribution-related and
Shareholder services to the Fund in connection with the sale of Class B shares,
such as the payment of compensation to dealers and agents for selling Class B
shares. The combination of the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the
distribution and Shareholder service fees facilitate the ability of the Fund to
sell the Class B shares without a sales charge being deducted at the time of
purchase.
The Plan and the Class B Plan are characterized as compensation plans since the
distribution fees will be paid to the Distributor without regard to the
distribution or Shareholder service expenses incurred by the Distributor or the
amount of payments made to financial institutions and intermediaries. The Fund
also may execute brokerage or other agency transactions through an affiliate of
the Adviser or through the Distributor for which the affiliate or the
Distributor receives compensation. Pursuant to guidelines adopted by the Board
of Trustees of the Trust, any such compensation will be reasonable and fair
compared to compensation received by other brokers in connection with
comparable transactions.
Fiduciary class shares of the Fund are offered without distribution fees to
institutional investors, including Authorized Financial Organizations. It is
possible that an institution may offer different classes of shares to its
customers and thus receive different compensation with respect to different
classes of shares. In addition, a financial institution that is the record
owner of shares for the account of its customers may impose separate fees for
account services to its customers.
THE ADMINISTRATOR
The One Group(R) Services Company, (the "Administrator"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the BISYS Group, Inc., and the Trust are parties to an
administration agreement relating to the Fund (the "Administration Agreement").
Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, the Administrator is
responsible for providing the Trust with administrative services (other than
investment advisory services), including regulatory reporting and all necessary
office space, equipment, personnel and facilities.
The Adviser also serves as Sub-Administrator to each fund of the Trust,
pursuant to an agreement between the Administrator and the Adviser. Pursuant to
this agreement, the Adviser performs many of the Administrator's duties, for
which the Adviser receives a fee paid by the Administrator.
The Administrator is entitled to a fee for administrative services, which is
calculated daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of .20% of each fund's
average daily net assets on the first $1.5 billion in Trust assets (excluding
the Treasury Only Money Market Fund, the Government Money Market Fund and The
One Group(R) Investor Funds), .18% of each fund's average daily net assets to $2
billion in Trust assets (excluding the Treasury Only Money Market Fund, the
Government Money Market Fund and The One Group(R) Investor Funds), and .16% of
each fund's average daily net assets when Trust assets exceed $2 billion
(excluding the Treasury Only Money Market Fund, the Government Money Market Fund
and The One Group(R) Investor Funds).
THE TRANSFER AGENT AND CUSTODIAN
State Street Bank and Trust Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500 acts
as Transfer Agent and Custodian for the Trust, for which services it receives a
fee. The Custodian holds cash, securities and other assets of the Trust as
required by the Investment Company Act of 1940. Bank One Trust Company, N.A.
serves as Sub-Custodian in connection with the Trust's securities lending
activities, pursuant to an agreement between State Street Bank and Trust
Company. Bank One Trust Company receives a fee paid by the Trust.

COUNSEL AND INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
Ropes & Gray serves as counsel to the Trust. Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P. serves
as the independent accountants of the Trust.
OTHER INFORMATION
THE TRUST
The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts Business Trust under a Declaration
of Trust filed on May 23, 1985. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trust to
offer separate funds and different classes of each fund. All consideration
received by the Trust for shares of any fund and all assets of such fund belong
to that fund and would be subject to liabilities related thereto.
The Trust pays its expenses, including fees of its service providers, audit and
legal expenses, expenses of preparing prospectuses, proxy solicitation material
and reports to Shareholders, costs of custodial services and registering the
shares under Federal and state securities laws, pricing, insurance expenses,
litigation and other extraordinary expenses, brokerage costs, interest charges,
taxes and organizational expenses.
The Adviser and the Administrator of the Fund each bears all expenses incurred
in connection with the performance of their services as investment adviser and
administrator, respectively, other than the cost of securities (including
brokerage commissions, if any) purchased for the Fund.
As a general matter, as set forth in the Multiple Class Plan, expenses are
allocated to each class of shares of the Fund on the basis of the net asset
value of that class in relation to the net asset value of the Fund. At present,
the only expenses that are allocated to Class A and Class B shares, other than
in accordance with the relative net asset value of the class, are the
distribution and Shareholder services costs. See "Expense Summary." At present,
no expenses are allocated to Fiduciary Class shares as a class that are not
also borne by the other classes of shares of the Fund in proportion to the
relative net asset value of the shares of such classes.
The organizational expenses of the Fund have been capitalized and are being
amortized in the first five years of the Fund's operations. Such amortization
will reduce the amount of income available for payment as dividends.
TRUSTEES OF THE TRUST
The management and affairs of the Trust are supervised by the Trustees under
the laws governing business trusts in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The
Trustees have approved contracts under which, as described above, certain
companies provide essential management services to the Trust.
VOTING RIGHTS
As set forth in the Multiple Class Plan, each share held entitles the
Shareholder of record to one vote. Each fund of the Trust will vote separately
on matters relating solely to that fund. In addition, each class of a fund
shall have exclusive voting rights on any matter submitted to Shareholders that
relates solely to that class, and shall have separate voting rights on any
matter submitted to Shareholders in which the interests of one class differ
from the interests of any other class. However, all fund Shareholders will have
equal voting rights on matters that affect all fund Shareholders equally. As a
Massachusetts Business Trust, the Trust is not required to hold annual meetings
of Shareholders but approval will be sought for certain changes in the
operation of the Trust and for the election of Trustees under certain
circumstances. In addition, a Trustee may be elected or removed by the
remaining Trustees or by Shareholders at a special meeting called upon written
request of Shareholders owning at least 10% of the outstanding shares of the
Trust. In the event that such a meeting is requested, the Trust will provide
appropriate assistance and information to the Shareholders requesting the
meeting.
DIVIDENDS
Net investment income (exclusive of capital gains) is declared daily, and is
determined and distributed in the form of monthly dividends to Shareholders of
Record on the first Business Day of each month. Capital gains of the Fund, if
any, will be distributed at least annually.
To maintain a relatively even rate of distributions from the Fund rather than
having substantial fluctuations from period to period, the monthly
distributions level from the Fund may be fixed from time to time at rates
consistent with the Adviser's long-term earnings expectations.
17
<PAGE> 52
Shareholders automatically receive all income dividends and capital gain
distributions in additional Class A, Class B or Fiduciary Class shares, as
applicable, at the net asset value next determined following the record date,
unless the Shareholder has elected to take such payment in cash. Such election,
or any revocation thereof, must be made in writing, at least 15 days prior to
distribution, to the Transfer Agent at P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500,
and will become effective with respect to dividends and distributions having
record dates after its receipt by the Transfer Agent. Reinvested dividends and
distributions receive the same tax treatment as dividends and distributions
paid in cash.
Class B shares received as dividends and capital gains distributions at the net
asset value next determined following the record date shall be held in a
separate Class B sub-account. Each time any Class B shares (other than those in
the sub-account) convert to Class A shares, a pro-rata portion of the Class B
shares in the sub-account will also convert to Class A shares. (See "Conversion
Feature.")
Dividends and distributions of the Fund are paid on a per-share basis. The
value of each share will be reduced by the amount of the payment. If shares are
purchased shortly before the record date for a dividend or the distribution of
capital gains, a Shareholder will pay the full price for the shares and receive
some portion of the price back as a taxable dividend or distribution even
though such distribution would, in effect, represent a return of the
Shareholder's investment.
The amount of dividends payable on Fiduciary Class shares will be more than the
dividends payable on Class A and Class B shares because of the distribution
expenses charged to Class A and Class B shares.
SHAREHOLDER INQUIRIES
Shareholder inquiries should be directed to the Administrator, The One Group(R)
Services Company, 3435 Stelzer Road, Columbus, OH 43219.
REPORTING
The Trust issues unaudited financial information semiannually and audited
financial statements annually. The Trust furnishes proxy statements and other
reports to Shareholders of record.
OTHER INVESTMENT POLICIES
TEMPORARY DEFENSIVE POSITION
For temporary defensive purposes during periods when the Adviser determines
that market conditions warrant such action, the Fund may invest up to 100% of
its assets in money market instruments, and may hold a portion of its assets in
cash for liquidity purposes.
To the extent the Fund is engaged in a temporary defensive position, it will
not be pursuing its investment objective.
PORTFOLIO TURNOVER
Portfolio turnover may vary greatly from year to year, as well as within a
particular year. It is presently estimated that the annual portfolio turnover
rate of the Fund will not exceed 90%. Higher portfolio turnover rates will
likely result in higher transaction costs to the Fund and may result in
additional tax consequences to the Fund's Shareholders.
INVESTMENT LIMITATIONS
The investment objective and the following investment limitations are
fundamental policies of the Fund. Fundamental policies cannot be changed
without the consent of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding
shares. The term "majority of the outstanding shares" means the vote of (i) 67%
or more of the Fund's shares present at a meeting, if more than 50% of the
outstanding shares of the Fund are present or represented by proxy, or (ii)
more than 50% of the Fund's outstanding shares, whichever is less.
The Fund may not:
1. Purchase securities of any issuer (except securities issued or guaranteed by
the United States, its agencies or instrumentalities, and if consistent with
the Fund's investment objective and policies, repurchase agreements involving
such securities) if as a result
18
<PAGE> 53
more than 5% of the total assets of the Fund would be invested in the
securities of such issuer or the Fund would own more than 10% of the
outstanding voting securities of such issuer. This restriction applies to 75%
of the Fund's assets. For purposes of these limitations, a security is
considered to be issued by the government entity whose assets and revenues
guarantee or back the security. With respect to private activity bonds or
industrial development bonds backed only by the assets and revenues of a
non-governmental user, such user would be considered the issuer.
2. Purchase any securities that would cause more than 25% of the total assets
of the Fund to be invested in the securities of one or more issuers conducting
their principal business activities in the same industry, provided that this
limitation does not apply to investments in obligations issued or guaranteed by
the U.S. government or its agencies and instrumentalities and repurchase
agreements involving such securities. For purposes of this limitation (i)
utilities will be divided according to their services (for example, gas, gas
transmission, electric and telephone will each be considered a separate
industry); and (ii) wholly-owned finance companies will be considered to be in
the industries of their parents if their activities are primarily related to
financing the activities of their parents.
3. Make loans, except that the Fund may (i) purchase or hold debt instruments
in accordance with its investment objective and policies; (ii) enter into
repurchase agreements; and (iii) engage in securities lending as described in
this Prospectus and in the Statement of Additional Information.
The foregoing percentages will apply at the time of the purchase of a security.
Additional investment limitations are set forth in the Statement of Additional
Information.
DESCRIPTION OF PERMITTED INVESTMENTS
The following is a description of certain of the permitted investments for the
Fund.
MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES--Mortgage-backed securities are debt obligations
secured by real estate loans and pools of loans on single family homes,
multi-family homes, mobile homes, and in some cases, commercial properties. The
Fund may acquire securities representing an interest in a pool of mortgage
loans that are issued or guaranteed by a U.S. government agency. The primary
issuers or guarantors of these mortgage-backed securities are Ginnie Mae,
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Mortgage-backed securities may also be issued by
non-governmental entities and may or may not have private insurer guarantees of
timely payments. Such non-governmental mortgage securities cannot be treated
as U.S. government securities for purposes of investment policies. The Fund
also may invest in mortgage-backed securities issued by non-government
entities, which consist of Collateralized Mortgage Obligations ("CMOs") and
Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduits ("REMICs") that are rated in one of
the four highest rating categories by at least one NRSRO at the time of
investment or, if unrated, determined by the Adviser to be of comparable
quality. The mortgages backing these securities include conventional
thirty-year fixed rate mortgages, graduated payment mortgages, adjustable rate
mortgages, and mortgages backed by commercial paper. Non-governmental mortgage
backed securities often involve a greater degree of risk than agency
mortgage-backed securities. Mortgage-backed securities are in most cases
"pass-through" instruments, through which the holder receives a share of all
interest and principal payments from the mortgages underlying the certificate.
Because the prepayment characteristics of the underlying mortgages vary, it is
not possible to predict accurately the average life or realized yield of a
particular issue of pass-through certificates. During periods of declining
interest rates, prepayment of mortgages underlying mortgage-backed securities
can be expected to accelerate. When the mortgage obligations are prepaid, the
Fund reinvests the prepaid amounts in securities, the yield of which reflects
interest rates prevailing at the time. Moreover, prepayment of mortgages which
underlie securities purchased at a premium could result in capital losses.
The Fund also may invest in multiple class securities issued by U.S. government
agencies and instrumentalities such as Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Ginnie Mae, or
private issuers, including CMOs and REMIC pass-through or participation
certificates, when consistent with the Fund's investment objective, policies
and limitations. A REMIC is a CMO that qualifies for special tax treatment
under the Code and invests in certain mortgages principally secured by
interests in real property and other permitted investments.
CMOs and guaranteed REMIC pass-through certificates ("REMIC Certificates")
issued by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae are types of multiple class
pass-through securities. Investors may purchase beneficial interests in REMICs,
which are known as "regular" interests or "residual" interests. The Fund does
not currently intend to purchase residual interests in REMICs. The REMIC
Certificates represent beneficial ownership interests in a REMIC trust,
generally consisting of mortgage loans or Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae
guaranteed mortgage pass-through certificates (the "Mortgage Assets") or
private issuers. The REMIC Trust may hold the mortgage related assets. The
obligations of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae under their respective
guaranty of the REMIC Certificates are obligations solely of Fannie Mae,
Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae, respectively.
19
<PAGE> 54
Fannie Mae REMIC Certificates are issued and guaranteed as to timely
distribution of principal and interest by Fannie Mae. In addition, Fannie Mae
will be obligated to distribute the principal balance of each class of REMIC
Certificates in full, whether or not sufficient funds are otherwise available.
For Freddie Mac REMIC Certificates, Freddie Mac guarantees the timely payment
of interest, and also guarantees the payment of principal as payments are
required to be made on the underlying mortgage participation certificates
("PCs"). PCs represent undivided interests in specified residential mortgages
or participation therein purchased by Freddie Mac and placed in a PC pool. With
respect to principal payments on PCs, Freddie Mac generally guarantees ultimate
collection of all principal of the related mortgage loans without offset or
deduction. Freddie Mac also guarantees timely payment of principal on certain
PCs referred to as "Gold PCs."
Ginnie Mae REMIC certificates guarantee the full and timely payment of interest
and principal on each class of securities (in accordance with the terms of
those classes as specified in the related offering circular supplement). The
Ginnie Mae guarantee is backed by the full faith and credit of the United
States of America.
REMIC Certificates issued by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae are treated
as U.S. government securities for purposes of investment policies. CMOs and
REMIC Certificates are issued in multiple classes. Each class of CMOs or REMIC
Certificates, often referred to as a "tranche," is issued at a specific
adjustable or fixed interest rate and must be fully retired no later than its
final distribution date. Principal prepayments on the mortgage loans or the
Mortgage Assets underlying the CMOs or REMIC Certificates may cause some or all
of the classes of CMOs or REMIC Certificates to be retired substantially
earlier than their final distribution dates. Generally, interest is paid or
accrues on all classes of CMOs or REMIC Certificates on a monthly basis.
The principal of and interest on the Mortgage Assets may be allocated among the
several classes of CMOs or REMIC Certificates in various ways. In certain
structures (known as "sequential pay" CMOs or REMIC Certificates), payments of
principal, including any principal prepayments, on the Mortgage Assets
generally are applied to the classes of CMOs or REMIC Certificates in the order
of their respective final distribution dates. Thus no payment of principal will
be made on any class of sequential pay CMOs or REMIC Certificates until all
other classes having an earlier final distribution date have been paid in full.
Additional structures of CMOs and REMIC Certificates include, among others,
"parallel pay" CMOs and REMIC Certificates. Parallel pay CMOs or REMIC
Certificates are those which are structured to apply principal payments and
prepayments of the Mortgage Assets to two or more classes concurrently on a
proportionate or disproportionate basis. These simultaneous payments are taken
into account in calculating the final distribution date of each class.
A wide variety of REMIC Certificates may be issued in the parallel pay or
sequential pay structures. These securities include accrual certificates (also
known as "Z-Bonds"), which only accrue interest at a specified rate until all
other certificates having an earlier final distribution date have been retired
and are converted thereafter to an interest-paying security, and planned
amortization class ("PAC") certificates, which are parallel pay REMIC
Certificates which generally require that specified amounts of principal be
applied on each payment date to one or more classes of REMIC Certificates (the
"PAC Certificates"), even though all other principal payments and prepayments
of the Mortgage Assets are then required to be applied to one or more other
classes of the certificates. The scheduled principal payments for the PAC
Certificates generally have the highest priority on each payment date after
interest due has been paid to all classes entitled to receive interest
currently. Shortfalls, if any, are added to the amount of principal payable on
the next payment date. The PAC Certificate payment schedule is taken into
account in calculating the final distribution date of each class of PAC. In
order to create PAC tranches, one or more tranches generally must be created
that absorb most of the volatility in the underlying Mortgage Assets. These
tranches tend to have market prices and yields that are much more volatile than
the PAC classes.
There can be no assurance that the United States government would provide
financial support to Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae if necessary in the
future.
The Fund will generally limit its investments in mortgage-backed securities to
50% of its total assets.
REGULATION OF MORTGAGE LOANS--Mortgage loans are subject to a variety of state
and Federal regulations designed to protect borrowers which may impair the
ability of the mortgage lender to enforce its rights under the mortgage
documents. These regulations include legal restraints on foreclosures,
homeowner rights of redemption after foreclosure, Federal and state bankruptcy
and debtor relief laws, restrictions on enforcement of mortgage loan "due on
sale" clauses and state usury laws. Even though the Fund will invest in
mortgage-backed securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its
agencies or instrumentalities, these regulations may adversely affect the
Fund's investments by delaying the Fund's receipt of payments derived from
principal or interest on mortgage loans affected by such regulations.
20
<PAGE> 55
STRIPPED MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES--The Fund may, to enhance revenues or hedge
against interest rate risk, invest in stripped mortgage-backed securities
("SMBS"), which are derivative multiclass mortgage securities. The Fund may
only invest in SMBS issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies
or instrumentalities.
SMBS are usually structured with two classes that receive different proportions
of the interest and principal distributions from a pool of mortgage assets. A
common type of SMBS will have one class receiving all of the interest from the
mortgage assets ("IOs"), while the other class will receive all of the
principal ("POs"). However, in some instances, one class will receive some of
the interest and most of the principal while the other class will receive most
of the interest and the remainder of the principal. If the underlying mortgage
assets experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, the Fund
may fail to fully recoup its initial investment in these securities. Although
the market for such securities is increasingly liquid, certain SMBS may not be
readily marketable and will be considered illiquid for purposes of the Fund's
limitation on investments in illiquid securities. Any determination that a SMBS
is liquid will be made pursuant to guidelines and standards established by the
Trust's Board of Trustees. The market value of the class consisting entirely of
principal payments generally is unusually volatile in response to changes in
interest rates. The yields on a class of SMBS that receives all or most of the
interest from mortgage assets are generally higher than prevailing market
yields on other mortgage-backed securities because their cash flow patterns are
more volatile and there is a greater risk that the initial investment will not
be fully recouped. The Adviser or Sub-Adviser will seek to manage these risks
(and potential benefits) by investing in a variety of such securities and by
using certain hedging techniques.
The Fund will generally limit its investments in SMBS to 15% of its total
assets.
ADJUSTABLE RATE MORTGAGE LOANS ("ARMS")--ARMs eligible for inclusion in a
mortgage pool will generally provide for a fixed initial mortgage interest rate
for a specified period of time. Thereafter, the interest rates (the "Mortgage
Interest Rates") may be subject to periodic adjustment based on changes in the
applicable index rate (the "Index Rate"). The adjusted rate would be equal to
the Index Rate plus a gross margin, which is a fixed percentage spread over the
Index Rate established for each ARM at the time of its origination.
Adjustable interest rates can cause payment increases that some borrowers may
find difficult to make. However, certain ARMs may provide that the Mortgage
Interest Rate may not be adjusted to a rate above an applicable lifetime
maximum rate or below an applicable lifetime minimum rate for such ARM. Certain
ARMs may also be subject to limitations on the maximum amount by which the
Mortgage Interest Rate may adjust for any single adjustment period (the
"Maximum Adjustment"). Other ARMs ("Negatively Amortizing ARMs") may provide
instead or as well for limitations on changes in the monthly payment on such
ARMs. Limitations on monthly payments can result in monthly payments which are
greater or less than the amount necessary to amortize a Negatively Amortizing
ARM by its maturity at the Mortgage Interest Rate in effect in any particular
month. In the event that a monthly payment is not sufficient to pay the
interest accruing on a Negatively Amortizing ARM, any such excess interest is
added to the principal balance of the loan, causing negative amortization and
will be repaid through future monthly payments. It may take borrowers under
Negatively Amortizing ARMs longer periods of time to achieve equity and may
increase the likelihood of default by such borrowers. In the event that a
monthly payment exceeds the sum of the interest accrued at the applicable
Mortgage Interest Rate and the principal payment which would have been
necessary to amortize the outstanding principal balance over the remaining term
of the loan, the excess (or "accelerated amortization") further reduces the
principal balance of the ARM. Negatively Amortizing ARMs do not provide for
the extension of their original maturity to accommodate changes in their
Mortgage Interest Rate. As a result, unless there is a periodic recalculation
of the payment amount (which there generally is), the final payment may be
substantially larger than the other payments. These limitations on periodic
increases in interest rates and on changes in monthly payment protect borrowers
from unlimited interest rate and payment increases.
There are two main categories of indices which provide the basis for rate
adjustments on ARMs: those based on U.S. Treasury securities and those derived
from a calculated measure such as a cost of funds index or a moving average of
mortgage rates. Commonly utilized indices include the one-year, three-year and
five-year constant maturity Treasury bill rates, the three-month Treasury bill
rate, the 180-day Treasury bill rate, rates on longer-term Treasury securities,
the 11th District Federal Home Loan Bank Cost of Funds, the National Median
Cost of Funds, the one-month, three-month, six-month or one-year London
Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), the prime rate of a specific bank, or
commercial paper rates. Some indices, such as the one-year constant maturity
Treasury rate, closely mirror changes in market interest rate levels. Others,
such as the 11th District Federal Home Loan Bank Cost of Funds index, tend to
lag behind changes in market rate levels and tend to be somewhat less volatile.
The degree of volatility in the market value of the Fund's portfolio and
therefore in the net asset value of the Fund's shares will be a function of the
length of the interest rate reset periods and the degree of volatility in the
applicable indices.
MORTGAGE DOLLAR ROLLS--The Fund may enter into mortgage "dollar rolls" in which
the Fund sells securities for delivery in the current month and simultaneously
contracts with the same counterpart to repurchase similar (same type, coupon
and maturity) but not identical securities on a specified future date. The Fund
gives up the right to receive principal and interest paid on the securities
sold. However, the Fund would benefit to the extent of any difference between
the price received for the securities
21
<PAGE> 56
sold and the lower forward price for the future purchase (often referred to as
the "drop") or fee income plus the interest earned on the cash proceeds of the
securities sold until the settlement date of the forward purchase. Unless such
benefits exceed the income, capital appreciation and gain or loss due to
mortgage prepayments that would have been realized on the securities sold as
part of the mortgage dollar roll, the use of this technique will diminish the
investment performance of the Fund compared with what such performance would
have been without the use of mortgage dollar rolls. The Fund will hold and
maintain in a segregated account until the settlement date, cash or liquid,
high grade debt securities in an amount equal to the forward purchase price.
The benefits derived from the use of mortgage dollar rolls may depend upon the
Adviser's ability to predict correctly mortgage prepayments and interest rates.
There is no assurance that mortgage dollar rolls can be successfully employed.
For financial reporting and tax purposes, the Fund proposes to treat mortgage
dollar rolls as two separate transactions: one involving the purchase of a
security and a separate transaction involving a sale. The Fund does not
currently intend to enter into mortgage dollar rolls that are accounted for as
a financing. For purposes of diversification and investment limitations,
mortgage dollar rolls are considered to be Mortgage-Backed Securities.
FIXED RATE MORTGAGE LOANS--Generally, fixed rate mortgage loans eligible for
inclusion in a mortgage pool will bear simple interest at fixed annual rates
and have original terms to maturity ranging from 5 to 40 years. The Fund will
only invest in fixed rate mortgage loans that are issued or guaranteed by the
U.S. government. Fixed rate mortgage loans generally provide for monthly
payments of principal and interest in substantially equal installments for the
contractual term of the mortgage note in sufficient amounts to fully amortize
principal by maturity although certain fixed rate mortgage loans provide for a
large final balloon payment upon maturity. The Fund may invest in fixed rate
mortgage loans or mortgage loan pools to enhance yield.
U.S. TREASURY OBLIGATIONS -- The Fund may invest in bills, notes and bonds
issued by the U.S. Treasury and separately traded interest and principal
component parts of such obligations that are transferable through the Federal
book-entry system known as Separately Traded Registered Interest and Principal
Securities ("STRIPS") and Coupon Under Book Entry Safekeeping ("CUBES").
RECEIPTS -- The Fund may purchase interests in separately traded interest and
principal component parts of U.S. Treasury obligations that are issued by banks
or brokerage firms and are created by depositing U.S. Treasury notes and U.S.
Treasury bonds into a special account at a custodian bank. The custodian holds
the interest and principal payments for the benefit of the registered owners of
the certificates or receipts. The custodian arranges for the issuance of the
certificates or receipts evidencing ownership and maintains the register.
Receipts include Treasury Receipts ("TRS"), Treasury Investment Growth Receipts
("TIGRS"), and Certificates of Accrual on Treasury Securities ("CATS").
STRIPS, CUBES, TRS, TIGRS and CATS are sold as zero coupon securities, which
means that they are sold at a substantial discount and redeemed at face value
at their maturity date without interim cash payments of interest or principal.
This discount is amortized over the life of the security, and such amortization
will constitute the income earned on the security for both accounting and tax
purposes. Because of these features, these securities may be subject to greater
interest rate volatility than interest-paying U.S. Treasury obligations. The
Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in STRIPS, CUBES, TRS, TIGRS and
CATS. See also "Taxes."
CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT -- Certificates of deposit are negotiable interest
bearing instruments with a specific maturity. Certificates of deposit ("CDs")
are issued by banks and savings and loan institutions in exchange for the
deposit of funds and normally can be traded in the secondary market prior to
maturity.
TIME DEPOSITS -- Time deposits are non-negotiable receipts issued by a bank in
exchange for the deposit of funds. Like a certificate of deposit, a time
deposit ("TD") earns a specified rate of interest over a definite period of
time; however, it cannot be traded in the secondary market. Time deposits with
a withdrawal penalty are considered to be illiquid securities; therefore, the
Fund will not invest more than 15% of its total assets in such time deposits
and other illiquid securities.
BANKERS' ACCEPTANCES -- Bankers' acceptances are bills of exchange or time
drafts drawn on and accepted by (i.e., made an obligation of) a commercial
bank. They are used by corporations to finance the shipment and storage of
goods and to furnish dollar exchange. Maturities are generally six months or
less.
COMMERCIAL PAPER -- Commercial paper is the term used to designate unsecured
short-term promissory notes issued by corporations and other entities.
Maturities on these issues vary from a few days to nine months.
U.S. GOVERNMENT AGENCIES -- Certain Federal agencies have been established as
instrumentalities of the U.S. government to supervise and finance specific
types of activities. Select agencies, such as the Government National Mortgage
Association
22
<PAGE> 57
("Ginnie Mae") and the Export-Import Bank, are supported by the full faith and
credit of the U.S. Treasury; others, such as the Federal National Mortgage
Association ("Fannie Mae"), are supported by the credit of the instrumentality
and have the right to borrow from the U.S. Treasury; others are supported by
the authority of the U.S. government to purchase the agency's obligations;
while still others, such as the Federal Farm Credit Banks and the Federal Home
Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac"), are supported solely by the credit
of the instrumentality itself. No assurance can be given that the U.S.
government would provide financial support to U.S. government sponsored
agencies or instrumentalities if it is not obligated to do so by law.
Obligations of U.S. government agencies include debt issues and
mortgage-backed securities issued or guaranteed by select agencies.
CORPORATE SECURITIES -- Corporate securities include corporate bonds,
convertible and non-convertible debt securities, and preferred stocks, as well
as commercial paper (short-term promissory notes issued by corporations).
Issuers of corporate bonds and notes are divided into many different categories
by bond market sector, such as electric utilities, gas utilities, telephone
utilities, consumer finance companies, wholesale finance companies and
industrial companies. Within each major category of issuer, there are many
subcategories.
WARRANTS -- Warrants are securities, typically issued with preferred stock or
bonds, that give the holder the right to buy a proportionate amount of common
stock at a specified price, usually at a price that is higher than the market
price at the time of issuance of the warrant. The right may last for a period
of years or indefinitely.
PREFERRED STOCK -- Preferred stock is a class of stock that generally pays
dividends at a specified rate and has preference over common stock in the
payment of dividends and liquidation. Preferred stock generally does not carry
voting rights. As with all equity securities, the price of preferred stock
fluctuates based on changes in a company's financial condition and on overall
market and economic conditions.
COMMON STOCK -- Common stock represents a share of ownership in a company and
usually carries voting rights and earns dividends. Unlike preferred stock,
dividends on common stock are not fixed but are declared at the discretion of
the issuer's board of directors.
INVESTMENT COMPANY SECURITIES -- The Fund may invest up to 5% of its total
assets in the securities of any one investment company, but may not own more
than 3% of the securities of any one investment company or invest more than 10%
of its assets in the securities of other investment companies. In accordance
with an exemptive order issued to the Trust by the SEC, such other investment
company securities may include securities of a money market fund of the Trust,
and such companies may include companies of which the Adviser or a sub-adviser
to a fund of the Trust, or an affiliate of such Adviser or sub-adviser, serves
as investment adviser, administrator or distributor. Because other investment
companies employ an investment adviser, such investment by the Fund may cause
Shareholders to bear duplicate fees. The Adviser will waive its fee
attributable to the assets of the investing fund invested in a money market
fund of the Trust; and, to the extent required by the laws of any state in
which shares of the Trust are sold, the Adviser will waive its fees
attributable to the assets of the Fund invested in any investment company.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- Repurchase agreements are agreements by which a person
obtains a security and simultaneously commits to return the security to the
seller at an agreed upon price (including principal and interest) on an agreed
upon date within a number of days from the date of purchase. The custodian or
its agent will hold the security as collateral for the repurchase agreement.
Collateral must be maintained at a value at least equal to 100% of the
repurchase price. The Fund bears a risk of loss in the event the other party
defaults on its obligations and the Fund is delayed or prevented from its right
to dispose of the collateral securities or if the Fund realizes a loss on the
sale of the collateral securities. The Adviser will enter into repurchase
agreements on behalf of the Fund only with financial institutions deemed to
present minimal risk of bankruptcy during the term of the agreement based on
guidelines established and periodically reviewed by the Trustees. Repurchase
agreements are considered by the SEC to be loans under the Investment Company
Act of 1940.
REVERSE REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS - The Fund may borrow funds for temporary
purposes by entering into reverse repurchase agreements. Pursuant to such
agreements, the Fund would sell portfolio securities to financial institutions
such as banks and broker-dealers, and agree to repurchase them at a mutually
agreed-upon date and price. The Fund will enter into reverse repurchase
agreements only to avoid otherwise selling securities during unfavorable market
conditions to meet redemptions. At the time the Fund enters into a reverse
repurchase agreement, it will place liquid high grade debt securities having a
value equal to the repurchase price (including accrued interest), in a
segregated custodial account and will subsequently monitor the account to
ensure that such equivalent value is maintained. Reverse repurchase agreements
involve the risk that the market value of the securities sold by the Fund may
decline below the price at which the Fund is obligated to repurchase the
securities.
23
<PAGE> 58
DEMAND FEATURES - The Fund may acquire securities that are subject to puts and
standby commitments ("demand features") to purchase the securities at their
principal amount at a fixed price (usually with accrued interest) within a
fixed period (usually seven days) following a demand by the Fund. The demand
feature may be issued by the issuer of the underlying securities, a dealer in
the securities or by another third party, and may to be transferred separately
from the underlying security. The underlying municipal securities subject to a
put may be sold at any time at market rates. The Fund expects that it will
acquire puts only where the puts are available without the payment of any
direct or indirect consideration. However, if advisable or necessary, a premium
may be paid for put features. A premium paid will have the effect of reducing
the yield otherwise payable on the underlying security. The purpose of engaging
in transactions involving puts is to maintain flexibility and liquidity to
permit the Fund to meet redemption requests and remain as fully invested as
possible.
ASSET-BACKED SECURITIES - Asset-backed securities consist of securities secured
by company receivables, home equity loans, truck and auto loans, leases, credit
card receivables and other securities backed by other types of receivables or
other assets. These securities may be pass-through securities, which means that
principal and interest payments on the underlying securities (less servicing
fees) are passed through to shareholders on a pro rata basis. Asset-backed
securities are normally traded over-the-counter and typically have a
short-intermediate maturity structure depending on the pay down characteristics
of the underlying financial assets which are passed through to the security
holder. These securities may involve prepayment risk, which is the risk that
the underlying debt will be refinanced or paid off prior to their maturities
during periods of declining interest rates. In that case, a portfolio manager
may have to reinvest the proceeds from the securities at a lower rate.
Potential market gains on a security subject to prepayment risk may be more
limited than potential market gains on a comparable security that is not
subject to prepayment risk. There is no limit on the extent to which the Fund
may invest in asset-backed securities. Asset-backed securities may be purchased
for the purpose of enhancing yield. Under certain interest rate and prepayment
rate scenarios, the Fund may fail to recoup fully its investment in
asset-backed securities. Asset-backed securities are commonly considered to be
derivatives.
SHORT-TERM FUNDING AGREEMENTS - The Fund may, in order to enhance yield, make
limited investments in short-term funding agreements issued by banks and highly
rated insurance companies. Short-term funding agreements issued by insurance
companies are sometimes referred to as Guaranteed Investment Contracts
("GICs"), while those issued by banks are referred to as Bank Investment
Contracts ("BICs"). Pursuant to such agreements, the Fund makes cash
contributions to a deposit account at a bank or insurance company. The bank or
insurance company then credits to the Fund on a monthly basis guaranteed
interest at either a fixed, variable or floating rate. These contracts are
general obligations of the issuing bank or insurance company and are paid from
the general assets of the issuing entity. The Fund will purchase short-term
funding agreements only from banks and insurance companies which, at the time
of purchase, are rated "A" or the equivalent by at least one NRSRO and have
assets of $1 billion or more. Generally, there is no active secondary market
in short-term funding agreements. Therefore, short-term funding agreements are
considered by the Fund to be illiquid investments, and will be acquired by the
Fund only if, at the time of purchase, no more than 15% of the Fund's net
assets will be invested in short-term funding agreements and other illiquid
securities.
SECURITIES OF FOREIGN ISSUERS -- The Fund may invest in securities of foreign
issuers to achieve income or capital appreciation. The Fund also may invest in
commercial paper of foreign issuers and obligations of foreign branches of U.S.
banks, U.S. and London branches of foreign banks, and supranational entities
which are established through the joint participation of several governments
(e.g., the Asian Development Bank and the Inter-American Development Bank).
Foreign investments involve risks that are different from investments in
securities of U.S. issuers. These risks may include future unfavorable
political and economic developments, possible withholding taxes, seizure of
foreign deposits, currency controls and exchange rates, and interest limitations
or other governmental restrictions which might affect payment of principal or
interest. Additionally, there may be less public information available about
foreign issuers. Further, foreign branches of foreign banks are not regulated
by U.S. banking authorities and generally are not bound by accounting,
auditing and financial reporting standards comparable to U.S. banks. Securities
of foreign issuers may include sponsored and unsponsored American Depository
Receipts ("ADRs"), which are securities typically issued by a U.S. financial
institution that evidence ownership interests in a pool of securities issued by
a foreign issuer. ADRs include American Depository Shares and New York Shares.
There may be less information available on the foreign issuers of unsponsored
ADRs than on the issuers of sponsored ADRs.
HIGH YIELD SECURITIES -- High yield bonds are securities that are rated below
investment grade by the primary rating agencies (BB or lower by S&P and Ba or
lower by Moody's). Other terms used to describe such securities include "lower
rated bonds", "non-investment grade bonds" and "junk bonds". Generally, lower
rated debt securities provide a higher yield than higher rated debt securities
of similar maturity, but are subject to a greater degree of risk with respect
to the ability of the issuer to meet its principal and interest obligations.
Issuers of high yield securities may not be as strong financially as those
issuing higher rated securities. Such high yield issuers may include smaller,
less creditworthy companies or highly indebted firms. These securities are
regarded as predominately speculative. The Fund may invest up to 30% of its
total assets in fixed-income securities rated BB or lower by S&P and Ba or
lower by Moody's. See "Description of Ratings."
24
<PAGE> 59
The market value of high yield securities may fluctuate more than the market
value of higher rated securities, since high yield securities tend to reflect
short-term corporate and market developments to a greater extent than higher
rated securities. Thus, periods of economic uncertainty and changes can be
expected to result in the increased volatility of market prices of high yield
bonds and of the investment company's net asset value. Additional risks of high
yield securities include limited liquidity and secondary market support. As a
result, the prices of high yield securities may decline rapidly in the event
that a significant number of holders decide to sell. Issuers of high yield
securities also are more vulnerable to real or perceived economic changes (for
instance, an economic downturn or prolonged period of rising interest rates),
political changes or adverse developments specific to the issuer. Adverse
developments could impair an issuer's ability to make principal and interest
payments. In the event of a default, the Fund would experience a reduction of
its income and could expect a decline in the market value of the defaulted
securities. In addition, a long-term track record on bond default rates, such
as that for investment grade corporate bonds, does not exist for the high yield
market. It may be that future default rates on high-yield bonds will be more
widespread and higher than in the past, especially during periods of
deteriorating economic conditions. Finally, the market prices of high yield
securities structured as zero coupon or pay-in-kind securities are generally
affected to a greater extent by interest rate changes and tend to be more
volatile than securities which pay interest periodically.
Credit quality in the high yield bond market can change suddenly and
unexpectedly, and even recently-issued credit ratings may not fully reflect the
actual risks posed by a particular high-yield security. For these reasons, it
is the Fund's policy to rely primarily on ratings issued by established credit
rating agencies, but to utilize such ratings in conjunction with the adviser's
independent and ongoing review of credit quality.
The high yield securities in which the Fund may invest include the following:
- - Straight fixed-income debt securities. These include bonds and other
debt obligations which bear a fixed or variable rate of interest payable
at regular intervals and have a fixed or resettable maturity date. The
particular terms of such securities vary and may include features such
as call provisions and sinking funds.
- - Zero-coupon debt securities. These bear no interest obligation but are
issued at a discount from their value at maturity. When held to
maturity, their entire return equals the difference between their issue
price and their maturity value.
- - Zero-fixed-coupon debt securities. These are zero-coupon debt
securities which convert on a specified date to interest- bearing debt
securities
SECURITIES LENDING -- In order to generate additional income, the Fund may lend
up to 33% of the securities in which it is invested pursuant to agreements
requiring that the loan be continuously secured by cash, securities of the U.S.
government or its agencies, shares of an investment trust or mutual fund or any
combination of cash and such securities as collateral equal at all times to at
least 100% of the market value plus accrued interest on the securities lent.
The Fund will continue to receive interest on the securities lent while
simultaneously seeking to earn interest on the investment of cash collateral in
U.S. government securities, shares of an investment trust or mutual fund, or
other short-term, highly liquid investments. Collateral is marked to market
daily to provide a level of collateral at least equal to the market value of
the securities lent. There may be risks of delay in recovery of the securities
or even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the securities
fail financially. However, loans will only be made to borrowers deemed by the
Adviser to be of good standing under guidelines established by the Trust's
Board of Trustees and when, in the judgment of the Adviser, the consideration
which can be earned currently from such securities loans justifies the
attendant risk. The Fund will enter into loan arrangements only with counter
parties which the Adviser has deemed to be creditworthy under guidelines
established by the Board of Trustees. Loans are subject to termination by the
Fund or the borrower at any time, and are therefore, not considered to be
illiquid investments.
RESTRICTED SECURITIES -- The Fund may invest in commercial paper issued in
reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933. Section 4(2) commercial paper is restricted as to
disposition under Federal securities law and is generally sold to institutional
investors, such as the Fund, who agree that they are purchasing the paper for
investment purposes and not with a view to public distribution. Any resale by
the purchaser must be in an exempt transaction. Section 4(2) commercial paper
is normally resold to other institutional investors like the Fund through or
with the assistance of the issuer or investment dealers who make a market in
Section 4(2) commercial paper, thus providing liquidity. The Fund believes that
Section 4(2) commercial paper and possibly certain other restricted securities
that meet the criteria for liquidity established by the Trustees are quite
liquid. The Fund intends, therefore, to treat the restricted securities that
meet the criteria for liquidity established by the Trustees, including Section
4(2) commercial paper, as determined by the Adviser, as liquid and not subject
to the investment limitation applicable to illiquid securities. In addition,
because Section 4(2) commercial paper is liquid, the Fund will not subject such
paper to the limitation applicable to restricted securities.
25
<PAGE> 60
The ability of the Trustees to determine the liquidity of certain restricted
securities is permitted under an SEC staff position set forth in the adopting
release for Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Rule"). The Rule
is a nonexclusive safe-harbor for certain secondary market transactions
involving securities subject to restrictions on resale under Federal securities
laws. The Rule provides an exemption from registration for resales of otherwise
restricted securities to qualified institutional buyers. The Rule is expected
to further enhance the liquidity of the secondary market for securities
eligible for resale under Rule 144A. The Fund believes that the staff of the
SEC has left the question of determining the liquidity of all restricted
securities to the Trustees. The Trustees have directed the Adviser to consider
the following criteria in determining the liquidity of certain restricted
securities:
- - the frequency of trades and quotes for the security;
- - the number of dealers willing to purchase or sell the security and the
number of other potential buyers;
- - dealer undertakings to make a market in the security; and
- - the nature of the security and the nature of the marketplace trades.
VARIABLE AND FLOATING RATE INSTRUMENTS -- Certain of the obligations purchased
by the Fund may carry variable or floating rates of interest, may involve a
conditional or unconditional demand feature and may include variable amount
master demand notes. A demand instrument with a demand notice period exceeding
seven days may be considered illiquid if there is no secondary market for such
security; therefore, the Fund will not invest more than 15% of its total assets
in such instruments and other illiquid securities. The interest rates on these
securities may be reset daily, weekly, quarterly or some other reset period,
and may have a floor or ceiling on interest rate changes. There is a risk that
the current interest rate on such obligations may not accurately reflect
existing market interest rates.
There is no limit on the extent to which the Fund may purchase variable and
floating rate instruments that are not illiquid. The Fund will purchase
variable and floating rate instruments to facilitate portfolio liquidity or to
permit the investment of the Fund's assets at a favorable rate of return.
SECURITIES PURCHASED ON A WHEN-ISSUED BASIS AND FORWARD COMMITMENTS -- The Fund
may purchase securities on a when-issued basis when deemed by the Adviser to
present attractive investment opportunities. When-issued securities are
purchased for delivery beyond the normal settlement date at a stated price and
yield, thereby involving the risk that the yield obtained will be less than
that available in the market at delivery. Although the purchase of securities
on a when-issued basis is not considered leveraging, it has the effect of
leveraging. When the Adviser purchases a when-issued security, the Custodian
will set aside cash or liquid securities to satisfy the purchase commitment.
The Fund generally will not pay for such securities or earn interest on them
until received. Commitments to purchase when-issued securities will not, under
normal market conditions, exceed 40% of the Fund's total assets, and a
commitment will not exceed 180 days. The Fund will only purchase when-issued
securities for the purpose of acquiring portfolio securities and not for
speculative purposes.
In a forward commitment transaction, the Fund contracts to purchase securities
for a fixed price at a future date beyond customary settlement time. The Fund
is required to hold and maintain in a segregated account until the settlement
date, cash, U.S. government securities or liquid high-grade debt obligations in
an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. Alternatively, the Fund may
enter into offsetting contracts for the forward sale of other securities that
it owns. The purchase of securities on a when-issued or forward commitment
basis involves a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased
declines prior to the settlement date. Although the Fund would generally
purchase securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis with the
intention of actually acquiring securities for its portfolio, the Fund may
dispose of a when-issued security or forward commitment prior to settlement if
the Adviser deems it appropriate to do so.
OPTIONS -- The Fund may purchase and write (i.e., sell) call options and put
options on securities and indices A call option gives the purchaser the right
to buy, and obligates the writer of the option to sell, the underlying security
at the agreed upon exercise (or "strike") price during the option period. A put
option gives the purchaser the right to sell, and obligates the writer to buy,
the underlying security at the strike price during the option period.
Purchasers of options pay an amount, known as a premium, to the option writer
in exchange for the right under the option contract. Option contracts may be
written with terms that would permit the holder of the option to purchase or
sell the underlying security only upon the expiration date of the option. The
initial purchase (sale) of an option contract is an "opening transaction." In
order to close out an option position, the Fund may enter into a "closing
transaction," the sale (purchase) of an option contract on the same security
with the same exercise price and expiration date as the option contract
originally opened.
26
<PAGE> 61
The Fund may purchase put and call options in hedging transactions to protect
against a decline in the market value of the securities in the Fund (e.g., by
the purchase of a put option) and to protect against an increase in the cost of
fixed-income securities that the Fund may seek to purchase in the future (e.g.,
by the purchase of a call option). In the event that paying premiums for put
and call options, together with price movements in the underlying securities,
are such that exercise of the options would not be profitable for the Fund,
losses of the premiums paid may be offset by an increase in the value of the
Fund's securities (in the case of a purchase of put options) or by a decrease
in the cost of acquisition of securities by the Fund (in the case of a purchase
of call options).
The Fund also may write secured put and covered call options as a means of
increasing the yield on the Fund and as a means of providing limited protection
against decreases in market value of the Fund.
There are risks associated with options transactions, including the following:
(i) the success of a hedging strategy may depend on the ability of the Adviser
to predict movements in the prices of the individual securities, fluctuations
in markets and movements in interest rates; (ii) there may be an imperfect or
no correlation between the changes in market value of the securities held by
the Fund and the prices of options; (iii) there may not be a liquid secondary
market for options; and (iv) while the Fund will receive a premium when it
writes covered call options, it may not participate fully in a rise in the
market value of the underlying security. It is expected that the Fund will only
engage in option transactions with respect to permitted investments and related
indices.
Generally, the policy of the Fund, in order to avoid the exercise of an option
sold by it, will be to cancel its obligation under the option by entering into
a closing purchase transaction, if available, unless selling (in the case of a
call option) or purchasing (in the case of a put option) the underlying
securities is determined to be in the Fund's interest. A closing purchase
transaction consists of a Fund purchasing an option having the same terms as
the option sold by the Fund, and has the effect of canceling the Fund's
position as a seller. The premium which a Fund will pay in executing a closing
purchase transaction may be higher (or lower) than the premium received when
the option was sold, depending in large part upon the relative price of the
underlying security at the time of each transaction. To the extent options sold
by a Fund are exercised and the Fund either delivers securities to the holder
of a call option or liquidates securities as a source of funds to purchase
securities put to the Fund, the Fund's turnover rate will increase, which would
cause the Fund to incur additional brokerage expenses.
During the option period, the Fund, as a covered call writer, gives up the
potential appreciation above the exercise price should the underlying security
rise in value, and the Fund, as a covered put writer, retains the risk of loss
should the underlying security decline in value. For the covered call writer,
substantial appreciation in the value of the underlying security would result
in the security being "called away" at the strike price of the option which may
be substantially below the fair market value of such security. For the covered
put writer, substantial depreciation in the value of the underlying security
would result in the security being "put to" the writer at the strike price of
the option which may be substantially in excess of the fair market value of
such security. If a covered call option or a covered put option expires
unexercised, the writer realizes a gain, and the buyer a loss, in the amount of
the premium.
The SEC requires that obligations of investment companies such as the Fund, in
connection with option sale positions, must comply with certain segregation or
coverage requirements, which are more fully described in the Statement of
Additional Information.
The Fund will only write covered call options on its securities and will limit
such activities to provide that the aggregate market value of such options and
the Fund's obligations under such written puts does not exceed 25% of the
Fund's total assets as of the time such options are entered into by the Fund.
FUTURES CONTRACTS AND RELATED OPTIONS -- The Fund may enter into futures
contracts, options on futures contracts, index futures and options thereon that
are traded on an exchange regulated by the Commodities Futures Trading
Commission ("CFTC") if, to the extent that such futures and options are not for
"bona fide hedging purposes" (as defined by the CFTC), the aggregate initial
margin and premiums on such positions (excluding the amount by which options
are in the money) do not exceed 5% of the Fund's total assets at current value.
The Fund, however, may invest more than such amount for bona fide hedging
purposes, and also may invest more than such amount if it obtains authority to
do so from the appropriate regulatory agencies without rendering the Fund a
commodity pool operator or adversely affecting its status as an investment
company for Federal securities law or income tax purposes.
The Fund may buy and sell futures contracts and related options to manage its
exposure to changing interest rates and security prices. Some futures
strategies, including selling futures, buying puts and writing calls, may
reduce the Fund's exposure to price fluctuations. Other strategies, including
buying futures, writing puts and buying calls, tend to increase market
exposure. Futures and options may be combined with each other in order to
adjust the risk and return characteristics of the overall portfolio. The
27
<PAGE> 62
Fund expects to enter into these transactions to "lock in" a return or spread
on a particular investment or portion of its assets, to protect against any
increase in the price of securities the Fund anticipates purchasing at a later
date, or for other risk management strategies.
Options and futures can be volatile instruments, and involve certain risks. If
the Adviser applies a hedge at an inappropriate time or judges interest rates
incorrectly, options and futures strategies may lower a Fund's return. The Fund
could also experience losses if the prices of its options and futures positions
were poorly correlated with its other instruments, or if it could not close out
its positions because of an illiquid secondary market.
Typically, investment in these contracts requires the Fund to deposit with the
applicable exchange or other specified financial intermediary as a good faith
deposit for its obligations, known as "initial margin," an amount of cash or
specified debt securities that initially is 1% -15% of the face amount of the
contract and that thereafter fluctuates on a periodic basis as the value of the
contract fluctuates. Thereafter, the Fund must make additional deposits equal
to any net losses due to unfavorable price movements of the contract and will
be credited with an amount equal to any net gains due to favorable price
movements. These additional deposits or credits are calculated and required
daily and are known as "variation margin."
The SEC requires that when an investment company such as the Fund effects
transactions of the foregoing nature, it must either segregate cash or high
quality, readily marketable portfolio securities with its custodian in the
amount of its obligations under the foregoing transactions or must cover such
obligations by maintaining positions in portfolio securities, futures contracts
or options that would serve to satisfy or offset the risk of such obligations.
When effecting transactions of the foregoing nature, the Fund will comply with
such segregation or cover requirements. No limitation exists on the amount of
the Fund's assets that may be used to comply with such segregation or cover
requirements. Certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code may limit the use
of futures and related options transactions.
The Fund also may engage in straddles and spreads with respect to 15% of its
assets. In a straddle transaction, the Fund either buys a call and a put or
sells a call and a put on the same security. In a spread, the Fund purchases
and sells a call or a put. The Fund will sell a straddle when the Adviser
believes the price of a security will be stable. The Fund will receive a
premium on the sale of the put and the call. A spread permits the Fund to make
a hedged investment that the price of a security will increase or decline.
SWAPS, CAPS AND FLOORS -- In order to protect the value of the Fund from
interest rate fluctuations and to hedge against fluctuations in the floating
rate market in which the Fund's investments are traded, the Fund may enter into
swaps, caps, and floors on various securities (such as U.S. government
securities), securities indexes, interest rates, prepayment rates, foreign
currencies or other financial instruments or indexes, for both hedging and
non-hedging purposes. While swaps, caps, and floors (sometimes hereinafter
collectively referred to as "swap contracts") are different from futures
contracts (and options on futures contracts) in that swap contracts are
individually negotiated with specific counter parties, the Fund will use swap
contracts for purposes similar to the purposes for which it uses options,
futures, and options on futures. Those uses of swap contracts (i.e., risk
management and hedging) present the Fund with risks and opportunities similar
to those associated with options contracts, futures contracts, and options on
futures. See "Futures Contracts and Related Options" and "Options."
The Fund may enter into these transactions to manage its exposure to changing
interest rates and other market factors. Some transactions may reduce the
Fund's exposure to market fluctuations while others may tend to increase market
exposure.
Swap contracts typically involve an exchange of obligations by two
sophisticated parties. For example, in an interest rate swap, the Fund may
exchange with another party their respective rights to receive interest, such
as an exchange of fixed rate payments for floating rate payments. Currency
swaps involve the exchange of respective rights to make or receive payments in
specified currencies. Mortgage swaps are similar to interest rate swaps in that
they represent commitments to pay and receive interest. The notional principal
amount, however, is tied to a reference pool or pools of mortgages.
Caps and floors are variations on swaps. The purchase of a cap entitles the
purchaser to receive a principal amount from the party selling the cap to the
extent that a specified index exceeds a predetermined interest rate or amount.
The purchase of an interest rate floor entitles the purchaser to receive
payments on a notional principal amount from the party selling the floor to the
extent that a specified index falls below a predetermined interest rate or
amount. Caps and floors are similar in many respects to over-the-counter
options transactions, and may involve investment risks that are similar to
those associated with options transactions and options on futures contracts.
Because swap contracts are individually negotiated, they remain the obligation
of the respective counter parties, and there is a risk that a counterparty will
be unable to meet its obligations under a particular swap contract. If a
counterparty defaults on a swap contract with the Fund, the Fund may suffer a
loss. To address this risk, the Fund will usually enter into interest rate
swaps
28
<PAGE> 63
on a net basis, which means that the two payment streams (one from the Fund to
the counterparty, one to the Fund from the counterparty) are netted out, with
the Fund receiving or paying, as the case may be, only the net amount of the
two payments. Interest rate swaps do not involve the delivery of securities,
other underlying assets, or principal, except for purposes of
collateralization, as discussed below. Accordingly, the risk of loss with
respect to interest rate swaps entered into on a net basis would be limited to
the net amount of the interest payments that the Fund is contractually
obligated to make. If the other party to an interest rate swap defaults, the
Fund's risk of loss consists of the net amount of interest payments that the
Fund is contractually entitled to receive. To protect against losses related to
counterparty default, the Fund may enter into swaps that require transfers of
collateral for changes in market value. In contrast, currency swaps and other
types of swaps may involve the delivery of the entire principal value of one
designated currency or financial instrument in exchange for the other
designated currency or financial instrument. Therefore, the entire principal
value of such swaps may be subject to the risk that the other party will
default on its contractual delivery obligations.
In addition, because swap contracts are individually negotiated and ordinarily
non-transferable, there also may be circumstances in which it would be
impossible for the Fund to close out its obligations under the swap contract
prior to its maturity. Under such circumstances, the Fund might be able to
negotiate another swap contract with a different counterparty to offset the
risk associated with the first swap contract. Unless the Fund is able to
negotiate such an offsetting swap contract, however, the Fund could be subject
to continued adverse developments, even after the Adviser has determined that
it would be prudent to close out or offset the first swap contract.
The Fund will not enter into any mortgage swap, interest rate swap, cap or
floor transaction unless the unsecured commercial paper, senior debt, or the
claims paying ability of the other party thereto is rated in the highest or
second highest rating category by at least one NRSRO at the time of investment,
or, if unrated, determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality.
The use of swaps involves investment techniques and risks different from and
potentially greater than those associated with ordinary portfolio securities
transactions. If the Adviser is incorrect in its expectations of market values,
interest rates, or currency exchange rates, the investment performance of the
Fund would be less favorable than it would have been if this investment
technique were not used.
The staff of the SEC is presently considering its position with respect to
swaps, caps and floors as senior securities. Pending a determination by the
staff, the Fund will either treat swaps, caps and floors as being subject to
its senior securities restrictions or will refrain from engaging in swaps, caps
and floors. Once the staff has expressed a position with respect to swaps, caps
and floors, the Fund intends to engage in swaps, caps and floors, if at all, in
a manner consistent with such position. To the extent the net amount of an
interest rate or mortgage swap is held in a segregated account, consisting of
cash or liquid, high grade debt securities, the Adviser believes that swaps do
not constitute senior securities under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and,
accordingly, will not treat them as being subject to the Fund's borrowing
restrictions. The net amount of the excess, if any, of the Fund's obligations
over its entitlements with respect to each interest rate swap will be accrued
on a daily basis and an amount of cash or liquid securities having an aggregate
net asset value at least equal to the accrued excess will be maintained in a
segregated account by the Fund's Custodian.
The Fund will generally limit its investments in swaps, caps and floors to 25%
of its total assets.
NEW FINANCIAL PRODUCTS -- New options and futures contracts and other financial
products, and various combinations thereof, continue to be developed and the
Fund may invest in any such options, contracts and products as may be developed
to the extent consistent with its investment objective, policies and
restrictions and the regulatory requirements applicable to investment
companies.
These various products may be used to adjust the risk and return
characteristics of the Fund's portfolio of investments. These various products
may increase or decrease exposure to security prices, interest rates, commodity
prices, or other factors that affect security values, regardless of the
issuer's credit risk. If market conditions do not perform consistent with
expectations, the performance of the Fund would be less favorable than it would
have been if these products were not used.
In addition, losses may occur if counter parties involved in transactions do
not perform as promised. These products may expose the Fund to potentially
greater return as well as potentially greater risk of loss than more
traditional fixed-income investments.
The Fund will generally limit its investments in new financial products to 25%
of its total assets.
STRUCTURED INSTRUMENTS - Structured instruments are debt securities issued by
agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government (such as the Student Loan
Marketing Association ("Sallie Mae"), Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac),
banks, municipalities, corporations, and other business entities whose interest
and/or principal payments are indexed to certain
29
<PAGE> 64
specific foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, or one or more other
reference indices. Structured instruments frequently are assembled in the form
of medium-term notes, but a variety of forms are available. Structured
instruments are commonly considered to be derivatives.
While structured instruments may offer the potential for a favorable rate of
return from time to time, they also entail certain risks. Structured
instruments may be less liquid than other debt securities, and the price of
structured instruments may be more volatile. If the value of the reference
index changes in a manner other than that expected by the Adviser, principal
and/or interest payments on the structured instrument may be substantially less
than expected. In addition, although structured instruments may be sold in the
form of a corporate debt obligation, they may not have some of the protection
against counter party default that may be available with respect to publicly
traded debt securities (i.e., the existence of a trust indenture).
MUNICIPAL SECURITIES - Municipal Securities are issued by a state or political
subdivision to obtain funds for various public purposes. Municipal securities
are generally classified as "general obligation" bonds and "revenue" bonds.
General obligation bonds are obligations involving the credit of an issuer
possessing taxing power and are payable from the issuer's general unrestricted
revenues. Revenue bonds are payable only from the revenues derived from a
particular facility or class of facilities or, in some cases, from the proceeds
of a special excise or other specific revenue source. Revenue bonds are not
payable from the issuer's general revenues. The Fund also may purchase
short-term tax-exempt General Obligation Notes, Tax Anticipation Notes, Bond
Anticipation Notes, Revenue Anticipation Notes, Project Notes, and other forms
of short-term tax-exempt obligations. Such notes are issued with a short-term
maturity in anticipation of the receipt of tax funds, the proceeds of bond
placements, or other revenues.
An issuer's obligations under its municipal securities are subject to the
provisions of bankruptcy, insolvency, and other laws affecting the rights and
remedies of creditors, such as the federal bankruptcy code, and laws, if any,
which may be enacted by Congress or state legislatures extending the time for
payment of principal or interest, or both, or imposing other constraints upon
the enforcement of such obligations. The power or ability of an issuer to meet
its obligations for the payment of interest on and principal of its municipal
securities may be materially adversely affected by litigation or other
conditions. Such litigation or conditions may from time to time have the effect
of introducing uncertainties in the market for tax-exempt obligations or
certain segments thereof, or may materially affect the credit risk with respect
to particular bonds or notes. Adverse economic, business, legal or political
developments might affect all or a substantial portion of a Fund's municipal
securities in the same manner. In addition, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code") imposes certain continuing requirements on issuers of
tax-exempt bonds regarding the use, expenditure and investment of bond proceeds
and the payment of rebates to the United States of America. Failure by the
issuer to comply subsequent to the issuance of tax-exempt bonds with certain of
these requirements could cause interest on the bonds to become includable in
gross income retroactive to the date of issuance.
INVERSE FLOATING RATE INSTRUMENTS -- The Fund may seek to increase yield by
investing in leveraged inverse floating rate debt instruments ("inverse
floaters"). The interest rate on an inverse floater resets in the opposite
direction from the market rate of interest to which the inverse floater is
indexed. An inverse floater may be considered to be leveraged to the extent
that its interest rate varies by a magnitude that exceeds the magnitude of the
change in the index rate of interest. The higher degree of leverage inherent in
inverse floaters is associated with greater volatility in their market values.
Accordingly, the duration of an inverse floater may exceed its stated final
maturity. The Fund will generally limit its investments in inverse floating
rate instruments to 15% of its total assets.
DESCRIPTION OF RATINGS
The following descriptions are summaries of published ratings.
DESCRIPTION OF COMMERCIAL PAPER RATINGS
The following descriptions of commercial paper ratings have been published by
Standard & Poor's Corporation ("S&P"), Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's"),
Fitch's Investors Service ("Fitch"), Duff and Phelps ("Duff"), and IBCA Limited
("IBCA"), respectively.
Commercial paper rated A by S&P is regarded by S&P as having the greatest
capacity for timely payment. Issues rated A are further refined by use of the
numbers 1+, 1 and 2 to indicate the relative degree of safety. Issues rated
A-1+ are those with an "overwhelming degree" of credit protection. Those rated
A-1 reflect a "very strong" degree of safety regarding timely payment. Those
rated A-2 reflect a high degree of safety regarding timely payment but not as
high as A-1.
Commercial paper issues rated Prime-1 and Prime-2 by Moody's are judged by
Moody's to be of the "highest" quality and "higher" quality, respectively, on
the basis of relative repayment capacity.
30
<PAGE> 65
The rating Fitch-1 (Highest Grade) is the highest commercial rating assigned by
Fitch. Paper rated Fitch-1 is regarded as having the strongest degree of
assurance for timely payment. The rating Fitch-2 (Very Good Grade) is the
second highest commercial paper rating assigned by Fitch which reflects an
assurance of timely payment only slightly less in degree than the strongest
issues.
The rating Duff-1 is the highest commercial paper rating assigned by Duff.
Paper rated Duff-1 is regarded as having very high certainty of timely payment
with excellent liquidity factors which are supported by ample asset protection.
Risk factors are minor. Paper rated Duff-2 is regarded as having good certainty
of timely payment, good access to capital markets and sound liquidity factors
and company fundamentals. Risk factors are small.
The designation A1 by IBCA indicates that the obligation is supported by a very
strong capacity for timely repayment. Those obligations rated A1+ are supported
by the highest capacity for timely repayment. Obligations rated A2 are
supported by a strong capacity for timely repayment, although such capacity may
be susceptible to adverse changes in business, economic or financial
conditions.
DESCRIPTION OF CORPORATE/MUNICIPAL BOND RATINGS
The following descriptions of S&P's and Moody's corporate and municipal bond
ratings have been published by S&P and Moody's, respectively.
31
<PAGE> 66
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services
Investment Grade
- ----------------
Bonds rated AAA have the highest rating S&P assigns to a debt obligation. Such
a rating indicates an extremely strong capacity to pay principal and interest.
Bonds rated AA also qualify as high-quality debt obligations. Capacity to pay
principal and interest is very strong, and in the majority of instances they
differ from AAA issues only in a small degree. Debt rated A has a strong
capacity to pay interest and repay principal although it is somewhat more
susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic
conditions than debt in higher rated categories.
Bonds rated BBB by S&P are regarded as having an adequate capacity to pay
interest and repay principal. Whereas they normally exhibit adequate protection
parameters, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more
likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay interest and repay principal for
debt in this category than in higher rated categories.
Non-Investment Grade
- --------------------
Bonds rated BB have less near-term vulnerability to default than other
speculative issues. However, they face major ongoing uncertainties or exposure
to adverse business, financial or economic conditions which could lead to
inadequate capacity to meet timely interest and principal payments. The BB
rated category is also used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied BBB rating.
Bonds rated B have a greater vulnerability to default but currently have the
capacity to meet interest payments and principal repayments. Adverse business,
financial. or economic conditions will likely impair capacity or willingness to
pay interest and repay principal. The B rating category is also used for debt
subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an actual or implied BB or BB-
rating.
Bonds rated CCC have currently identifiable vulnerability to default, and are
dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions to meet
timely payment of interest and repayment of principal. In the event of adverse
business, financial, or economic conditions, they are not likely to have the
capacity to pay interest and repay principal. The CCC rating category is also
used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an actual or implied
B or B- rating.
The rating CC typically is applied to debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied CCC rating.
The rating C typically is applied to debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied CCC rating. The C rating may be used to cover a
situation where a bankruptcy petition has been filed, but debt service payments
are continued.
The rating C1 is reserved for income bonds on which no interest is being paid.
Bonds rated D are in payment default. The D rating category is used when
interest payments or principal payments are not made on the date due, even if
the applicable grace period has not expired, unless Standard & Poor believes
that such payments will be made during such grace period. The D rating also
will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition if debt service payments
are jeopardized.
Plus (+) or minus (-). Ratings from AA to CCC may be modified by the addition
of a plus or minus sign to show relative standing within the major rating
categories.
Moody's Investor Service, Inc.
Investment Grade
- ----------------
Bonds that are rated Aaa by Moody's are judged to be of the best quality. They
carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally referred to as
"gilt edge." Interest payments are protected by a large, or an exceptionally
stable, margin and principal is secure. While the various protective elements
are likely to change, such changes as can be visualized are most unlikely to
impair the fundamentally strong position of such issues. Bonds rated Aa by
Moody's are judged by Moody's to be of high quality by all standards. Together
with bonds rated Aaa, they comprise what are generally known as high-grade
bonds. They are rated lower than the best bonds because margins of protection
may not be as large as in Aaa securities or fluctuation of protective elements
may be of greater amplitude or there may be other elements present that make
the long-term risks appear somewhat larger than in Aaa securities. Bonds that
are rated A possess many favorable investment attributes and are to be
32
<PAGE> 67
considered as upper-medium grade obligations. Factors giving security to
principal and interest are considered adequate, but elements may be present
which suggest a susceptibility to impairment sometime in the future.
Bonds that are rated Baa by Moody's are considered as medium-grade obligations
(i.e., they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured). Interest payments
and principal security appear adequate for the present but certain protective
elements may be lacking or may be characteristically unreliable over any great
length of time. Such bonds lack outstanding investment characteristics and in
fact have speculative characteristics as well.
Changes in economic conditions or other circumstances are more likely to lead
to a weakened capacity of the issuers of securities rated BBB or Baa to make
principal and interest payments than is the case with higher grade securities.
Non-Investment Grade
- --------------------
Bonds rated Ba are more uncertain and have speculative elements. The protection
of interest and principal payments is not well safeguarded during good and bad
times. Bonds rated B lack the characteristics of a desirable investment (i.e.,
potentially low assurance of timely interest and principal payments or
maintenance of other contract terms over time).
Bonds rated Caa have poor standing and may be in default. These bonds carry an
element of danger with respect to principal and interest payments. Bonds rated
Ca are speculative to a high degree and could be in default or have other
marked shortcomings. C is the lowest rating. Bonds in this category have
extremely poor prospects of ever attaining investment standing.
Unrated securities will be treated as non-investment grade securities unless
the Adviser determines that such securities are the equivalent of investment
grade securities. Securities that have received different ratings from more
than one agency are considered investment grade if at least one agency has
rated the security investment grade.
DESCRIPTION OF MUNICIPAL NOTE RATINGS
Moody's highest rating for state, municipal and other short-term notes is MIG-1
and VMIG-1. Short-term municipal securities rated MIG-1 or VMIG-1 are of the
best quality. They have strong protection from established cash flows of funds
for their servicing or from established and broad-based access to the market
for refinancing or both. Short-term municipal securities rated MIG-2 and VMIG-2
are of high quality. Margins of protection are ample although not so large as
in the preceding group.
An S&P note rating reflects the liquidity concerns and market access risks
unique to notes. Notes due in three years or less will likely receive a note
rating. Notes maturing beyond three years will most likely receive a long-term
debt rating. The following criteria will be used in making that assessment:
o Amortization schedule (the larger the final maturity relative to other
maturities the more likely it will be treated as a note).
o Source of Payment (the more dependent the issue is on the market for its
refinancing, the more likely it will be treated as a note).
Note rating symbols are as follows:
SP-1 Very strong or strong capacity to pay principal and interest. Those issues
determined to possess overwhelming safety characteristics will be given a plus
(+) designation.
SP-2 Satisfactory capacity to pay principal and interest.
MISCELLANEOUS
PERFORMANCE
From time to time, the Fund may advertise yield, total return and/or
distribution rate. These figures will be based on historical earnings and are
not intended to indicate future performance. The yield of the Fund refers to
the annualized income generated by an investment in the Fund over a specified
30-day period. The yield is calculated by assuming that the income generated by
the investment during that period is generated over a one-year period and is
shown as a percentage of the investment.
33
<PAGE> 68
Total return is the change in value of an investment in the Fund over a given
period, assuming reinvestment of any dividends and capital gains. A cumulative
total return reflects an actual rate of return over a stated period of time. An
average annual total return is a hypothetical rate of return that, if achieved
annually, would have produced the same cumulative total return if performance
had been constant over the entire period. Average annual total returns smooth
out variations in performance; they are not the same as actual year-by-year
results.
The distribution rate is computed by dividing the total amount of the dividends
per share paid out during the past period by the maximum offering price or
month-end net asset value depending on the class of the Fund. This figure is
then "annualized" (multiplied by 365 days and divided by the applicable number
of days in the period). Funds with a front-end sales charge would incorporate
the offering price into the distribution yield in place of month-end net asset
value.
Distribution rate is a measure of the level of income paid out in cash to
Shareholders over a specified period. It differs from yield and total return
and is not intended to be a complete measure of performance. Furthermore, the
distribution rate may include return of principal and/or capital gains. Total
return is the change in value of a hypothetical investment over a given period
assuming reinvestment of dividends and capital gain distributions. The yield
refers to the cumulative 30-day rolling net investment income, divided by
maximum offering price and multiplied by average shares outstanding during this
period. See the Statement of Additional Information.
The Trust will include information on all classes of shares of the Fund in any
advertisement or information including performance data for the Fund. The
performance for Fiduciary Class shares may be higher than for Class A shares
and Class B shares because Fiduciary Class shares are not subject to sales
charges and distribution expenses.
The performance of each class of the Fund may from time to time be compared to
that of other mutual funds tracked by mutual fund rating services, to that of
broad groups of comparable mutual funds or to that of unmanaged indices that
may assume investment of dividends but do not reflect deductions for
administrative and management costs. In addition, the performance of each class
of the Fund may be compared to other funds or to relevant indices that may
calculate total return without reflecting sales charges; in which case, the
Fund may advertise its total return in the same manner. If reflected, sales
charges would reduce these total return calculations.
TAXES
The following summary of Federal income tax consequences is based on current
tax laws and regulations, which may be changed by legislative, judicial or
administrative action. No attempt has been made to present a complete
explanation of the Federal, state, local or foreign tax treatment of the Fund
or its Shareholders. Accordingly, Shareholders are urged to consult their tax
advisers regarding specific questions as to the tax consequences of investing
in the Fund.
TAX STATUS OF THE FUND
The Fund is treated as a separate entity for Federal income tax purposes and is
not combined with the Trust's other funds. The Fund intends to qualify as a
"regulated investment company" for Federal income tax purposes and to meet all
other requirements that are necessary for it to be relieved of Federal taxes on
that part of its net investment income and net capital gains (the excess of net
long-term capital gain over net short-term capital loss) that is distributed to
Shareholders.
TAX STATUS OF DISTRIBUTIONS
The Fund will distribute substantially all of its net investment income
(including, for this purpose, net short-term capital gain) to Shareholders of
each class of shares of the Fund on at least an annual basis. Generally,
dividends from net investment income will be taxable to Shareholders as
ordinary income whether received in cash or in additional shares, and any net
capital gains will be distributed at least annually and will be taxed to
Shareholders as long-term capital gains, regardless of how long the Shareholder
has held shares.
Distributions by the Fund to retirement plans that qualify for tax-exempt
treatment under the Code ("qualified retirement plans") will not be taxable.
The Federal tax treatment of qualified retirement plans, as well as
distributions from such plans, is governed by specific provisions of the Code.
If shares are held by a retirement plan that ceases to qualify for tax-exempt
treatment under the Code or by an individual who has received such shares as a
distribution from a retirement plan, the Fund's distributions will be taxable
to such plan or individual as described in the preceding paragraph. Persons
considering directing the investment of their qualified retirement plan account
in the Fund and qualified retirement plan trusts considering purchasing such
shares, should consult their tax advisers for a more complete explanation of
the Federal tax consequences, and for an explanation of the state, local and
(if applicable) foreign tax consequences of making such an investment.
34
<PAGE> 69
The Fund will make annual reports to Shareholders of the Federal income tax
status of all distributions.
Certain securities purchased by the Fund (such as STRIPS, CUBES, TRS, TIGRS and
CATS), as defined in the "Description of Permitted Investments," are sold at
original issue discount and thus do not make periodic cash interest payments.
The Fund will be required to include as part of its current income the imputed
interest on such obligations even though the Fund has not received any interest
payments on such obligations during that period. Because the Fund distributes
substantially all of its net investment income to its Shareholders (including
such imputed interest), the Fund may have to sell portfolio securities in order
to generate the cash necessary for the required distributions. Such sales may
occur at a time when the Adviser would not have chosen to sell such securities
and may result in a taxable gain or loss.
Fund transactions in foreign currencies and hedging activities will likely
produce a difference between book income and taxable income. This difference
may cause a portion of the Fund's income distributions to constitute a return
of capital for tax purposes or require the Fund to make distributions exceeding
book income to qualify as a regulated investment company.
Dividends declared by the Fund in October, November or December of any year and
payable to Shareholders of record on a date in such a month will be deemed to
have been paid by the Fund and received by Shareholders on December 31 of that
year, if paid by the Fund at any time during the following January.
Dividends received by a Shareholder that are derived from the Fund's
investments in U.S. government obligations may not be entitled to the
exemptions from state and local income taxes that would be available if the
Shareholder had purchased U.S. government obligations directly. The Fund will
inform Shareholders annually of the percentage of income and distributions
derived from U.S. government obligations. Shareholders should consult their tax
advisers regarding the state and local tax treatment of the dividends received
from the Fund.
The Fund may be subject to foreign withholding taxes on income derived from
obligations of foreign issuers. The Fund will not be able to elect to treat
Shareholders as having paid their proportionate share of such foreign taxes.
Sale, exchange or redemption of Fund shares by a Shareholder will generally be
a taxable event to such Shareholder.

securities, up to 20% in Underlying Funds which invest primarily in
fixed-income securities, and up to 10% in Money Market Funds. The Fund will
normally allocate its assets among the Underlying Funds according to the

(1) A person who purchases shares through an account with a financial
institution or broker/dealer may be charged separate transaction fees
by the financial institution or broker/dealer. In addition, a wire
redemption charge, currently $7.00, is deducted from the amount of a
wire redemption payment made at the request of a Shareholder.
(2) A person who purchases $1 million or more of Class A shares and is not
assessed a sales charge at the time of purchase, will be assessed a
sales charge equivalent to 1% of the purchase price if such purchaser
redeems any or all of the Class A shares prior to the first
anniversary of purchase.
(3) Absent the voluntary waiver of fees under the Trust's Distribution and
Shareholder Services Plan, 12b-1 fees (as a percentage of average
daily net assets) would be .35% for Class A shares. The 12b-1 fees
include a shareholder servicing fee of .25% of the average daily net
assets of the Fund's Class B shares and may include a shareholder
servicing fee of .25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's
Class A shares. See "The Distribution."
(4) Absent the voluntary 12b-1 fee waiver, Total Operating Expenses for
Class A shares would be .72%.
The Fund will indirectly bear its pro rata share of fees and expenses incurred
by the Underlying Funds, and the investment returns of the Fund will be net of
the expenses of the Underlying Funds. The following chart provides the expense
ratio for each of the Underlying Funds in which the Fund invests (based on
the current Underlying Fund prospectus). Certain of these expense ratios may
include a voluntary reduction of investment advisory fees.

After combining the total operating expenses of the Fund with those of the
Underlying Funds, the estimated average weighted expense ratio for Class A
shares is 1.52%, for Class B shares is 2.27%, and for Fiduciary Class shares is
1.27%.
On the basis of these estimated expenses, the following example illustrates the
expenses an investor would pay on a $1,000 investment in Class A and Fiduciary
class shares of the Fund, assuming: (1) imposition of the maximum sales charge
for Class A shares; (2) 5% annual return; and (3) redemption at the end of
each time period.

EXPENSES AND ACTUAL EXPENSES MAY BE GREATER OR LESS THAN THOSE SHOWN. The
purpose of these tables is to assist the investor in understanding the various

Trust.
THE FUND
The One Group(R) Investor Growth Fund ( the "Fund") is part of The One Group(R)
(the "Trust"), which is an open-end management investment company that offers
shares in 39 separate funds and different classes of certain of the funds. The
Trust was organized as a Massachusetts Business Trust on May 23, 1985. This
Prospectus relates to Class A, Class B, and Fiduciary Class shares of The One
Group(R) Investor Growth Fund. Each class of shares provides for variations in
distribution costs, voting rights, dividends and per share net asset value
pursuant to a multiple class plan (the "Multiple Class Plan") adopted by the
Board of Trustees of the Trust. Except for these differences between classes,
each share of the Fund represents an undivided, proportionate interest in the
Fund. The Fund is a non-diversified mutual fund because it invests in the
securities of a limited number of Underlying Funds. However, the Underlying
Funds are diversified investment companies. The Information regarding the
Trust's other funds and their classes is contained in separate prospectuses
which may be obtained from the Trust's Distributor, The One Group(R) Services
Company, 3435 Stelzer Road, Columbus, OH 43219, or by calling 1-800-480-4111.

DESCRIPTION OF THE UNDERLYING FUNDS
The following is a brief description of the principal investment policies of
the Underlying Funds. Additional investment practices are described in
"Investment Policies of the Underlying Funds," the Statement of Additional
Information and the prospectus for each of the Underlying Funds.

<PAGE> 80
The One Group(R) International Equity Index Fund
The One Group(R) International Equity Index Fund is an equity fund. The
objective of the fund is to provide investment results that correspond to the
aggregate price and dividend performance of the securities in the Gross
Domestic Product Weighted Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe,
Australia and Far East Index ("MSCI EAFE GDP Index" or "EAFE GDP Index").(1)
Under normal conditions, the fund will invest substantially all of its assets
in foreign securities and at least 65% of the value of its total assets in
foreign equity securities, consisting of common stocks (including sponsored and
unsponsored American Depository Receipts ("ADRs")) and preferred stocks,
securities convertible into common stocks (only if they are listed on
registered exchanges or actively traded in the over-the-counter market),
warrants and depository receipts for such securities of issuers located in at
least three different countries. In attempting to duplicate the capital
performance and dividend income of the MSCI EAFE GDP Index, the fund will
normally invest in the stocks which comprise the Index and secondarily in stock
index futures. It is expected that cash reserve items normally will not exceed
10% of the fund's net assets. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its net assets
in securities of emerging international markets such as Mexico, Brazil and
Chile. A substantial portion of the fund's assets will be denominated in
foreign currencies.
The One Group(R) Large Company Growth Fund
The One Group(R) Large Company Growth Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation
and growth of income by investing primarily in equity securities. To achieve
its objective, the fund will, under normal market conditions, invest
substantially all, but in no event less than 65%, of the value of its total
assets in equity securities consisting of common stocks, warrants and any
rights to purchase common stocks. The weighted average capitalization of the
companies in which the fund invests will under normal market conditions always
be in excess of the market median capitalization of the Standard & Poor's 500
Composite Stock Price Index ("S&P 500 Index").(2) The fund may invest the
remainder of its assets in any combination of nonconvertible fixed income
securities, repurchase agreements, options and futures contracts.
The One Group(R) Large Company Value Fund
The One Group(R) Large Company Value Fund is an equity fund that seeks capital
appreciation with the incidental goal of achieving current income by investing
primarily in equity securities. The fund will invest in equity securities of
companies that are believed to be selling below their long-term intrinsic
investment values. Companies held will typically be large capitalization
issuers with current price/earnings and/or price/book ratios which are lower
than that of the general market as measured by the S&P 500 Index. In addition,
the fund may invest in stock of companies which have been analyzed to have
breakup values well in excess of current market values or which have uniquely
undervalued corporate assets. The general approach to purchasing stocks will
emphasize individual security selection. Macroeconomic data and industry profit
forecasts will be utilized to gauge the best sectors of the economy in which to
be positioned.
Under normal market conditions, the fund will invest at least 80% of the value
of its total assets in equity securities consisting of common stocks and debt
securities and preferred stocks which are convertible into common stocks. The
fund also may enter into options and futures transactions. The remainder of the
fund's assets will be held in cash equivalents
The One Group(R) Growth Opportunities Fund
The One Group(R) Growth Opportunities Fund seeks growth of capital and,
secondarily, current income by investing primarily in equity securities. The
fund will invest in issues which are identified and selected based on the
potential to produce above-average earnings growth per share over a
one-to-three year period. It is expected that issuers will generally include
established companies with a history of above-average growth or companies that
are expected to enter periods of above-average growth, and smaller companies
which are positioned in emerging growth industries. The fund may invest in
securities listed on a stock exchange as well as those traded over-the-counter.
At least 80% of the value of the fund's total assets will, under normal
conditions, be invested in equity securities consisting of common stocks and
debt securities and preferred stocks that are convertible into common stocks.
The fund also may enter into options and futures transactions. The remainder of
the fund's assets will be held in cash equivalents.

<PAGE> 81
The One Group(R) Value Growth Fund
The One Group(R) Value Growth Fund seeks long-term capital growth and growth of
income while, as a secondary objective providing a moderate level of current
income. The fund pursues its objectives by investing primarily in a portfolio
of common stocks, debt securities, preferred stocks, convertible securities,
warrants, and other equity securities of companies that show the potential for
growth of earnings over time. Stock selection is guided by current valuation
relative to a stock's historical valuation and relative to the Adviser's
estimates of future growth of earnings and dividends. Accordingly, the fund may
emphasize securities of companies that the Adviser believes are overlooked or
undervalued by investors, which fact should contribute to an increase in the
market value of the security over time.
The fund will ordinarily invest at least 65% of the value of its total assets
in securities with the characteristics described above. Although the fund
intends to invest all of its assets in such securities, up to 35% of its total
assets may be held in cash or invested in U.S. Government Securities, other
investment grade fixed-income securities and cash equivalents.
The One Group(R) Gulf South Growth Fund
The One Group(R) Gulf South Growth Fund seeks long-term capital growth by
investing in a portfolio of equity securities of small-capitalization ,
emerging growth and medium capitalization companies, which are either
headquartered in or whose primary market is in the southeastern region of the
United States. The fund invests primarily in a portfolio of common stocks, debt
securities, preferred stocks, convertible securities, warrants and other equity
securities of such companies. The Adviser anticipates that the fund's portfolio
will normally consist of securities of approximately twenty-five to sixty
emerging growth companies from Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina,
Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana,
Kentucky and Texas. It is expected that companies selected would generally have
market capitalizations ranging from $50,000,000 to $2,000,000,000, although the
fund may occasionally hold securities of companies whose market capitalizations
are considerably larger if doing so contributes to the fund's investment
objective.
The fund will normally invest at least 65% of the value of its total assets in
securities with the characteristics described above. Although the fund intends
to invest all of its assets in such securities, up to 35% of its total assets
may be held in cash or invested in U.S. Government Securities, other investment
grade fixed-income securities and cash equivalents, when the Adviser's
assessment of the attractiveness of the entire stock market and individual
market sectors changes.
Because the fund is non-diversified, its share price may be subject to greater
fluctuations as a result of changes in an issuer's financial condition or the
market's assessment of an individual issuer. In addition, smaller, less
seasoned companies may be subject to greater business risk than larger,
established companies.
The One Group(R) Income Equity Fund
The One Group(R) Income Equity Fund seeks current income through regular
payment of dividends with the secondary goal of achieving capital appreciation
by investing primarily in equity securities. The fund will make investments in
an attempt to keep its yield above the S&P 500 Index. Achieving such a yield
will be the primary consideration in selecting securities. Investments will be
made in common stocks of corporations which regularly pay dividends, although
continued payment of dividends cannot be assured. The fund will invest
primarily in stocks with favorable, long-term fundamental characteristics, but
stocks of companies that are out of favor in the financial community may also
be purchased.
The fund will under normal conditions invest at least 80% of the value of its
total assets in equity securities consisting of common stocks, and debt
securities and preferred stocks which are convertible into common stocks. The
fund also may enter into options and futures transactions. The balance of the
fund's assets will be held in cash equivalents.
The One Group(R) Equity Index Fund
The One Group(R) Equity Index Fund seeks investment results that correspond to
the aggregate price and dividend performance of the securities on the S&P 500
Index. The fund will, in attempting to duplicate the capital performance and
dividend income of the S&P 500 Index, normally invest in many of the stocks
which comprise the S&P 500 Index and secondarily in stock index futures. Cash
reserves will not normally exceed 10% of the fund's net assets.
The Adviser generally selects stocks for the fund in the order of their
weightings in the S&P 500 Index beginning with the heaviest weighted stocks.
The percentage of the fund's assets to be invested in each stock is
approximately the same as the percentage it represents in the S&P 500 Index.
From time to time, administrative adjustments may be made in the fund because
of changes in the composition of the S&P 500 Index, but such changes should be
infrequent. The fund will attempt to achieve a correlation between the
performance of its portfolio and that of the S&P 500 Index of at least 0.95,
without taking into account expenses. A correlation
8
<PAGE> 82
of 1.00 would indicate perfect correlation, which would be achieved when the
fund's net asset value, including the value of its dividend and capital gains
distributions, increases or decreases in exact proportion to changes in the S&P
500 Index.
The One Group(R) Prime Money Market Fund
The One Group(R) Prime Money Market Fund seeks current income with liquidity
and stability of principal. The fund intends to comply with the regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to money market funds using
the amortized cost method for calculating net asset value. These regulations
impose certain quality, maturity and diversification restraints on investments
by the fund. Under these regulations, the fund will invest only in U.S.
dollar-denominated securities, will maintain an average maturity on a
dollar-weighted basis of 90 days or less, and will acquire only "eligible
securities" that present minimal credit risks and have a maturity of 397 days
or less.
The One Group(R) Disciplined Value Fund
The One Group(R) Disciplined Value Fund seeks capital appreciation with the
secondary goal of achieving current income by investing primarily in equity
securities. The fund will invest in equity securities with below-market average
price-to-earnings and price-to-book value ratios. The issuer's soundness and
earnings prospects will also be considered. Although capital appreciation is
the primary purpose for investing in the security, all common stocks must be
paying a current dividend to shareholders to be eligible for purchase. While
the Adviser may sell fund securities in its discretion at any time, it is
unlikely to move toward elimination of the fund's holdings of a stock when the
Adviser determines that there is a fundamental change that impairs a company's
ability to pay dividends, or if the company's 12-month earnings per share
comparison is declining.
The fund will, under normal conditions, invest at least 80% of the value of its
total assets in equity securities consisting of common stocks and debt
securities and preferred stocks that are convertible into common stocks. The
fund also may enter into options and futures transactions. The balance of the
fund's assets will be held in cash equivalents.
The One Group(R) Limited Volatility Bond Fund
The One Group(R) Limited Volatility Bond Fund seeks current income consistent
with preservation of capital through investment in high and medium-grade
fixed-income securities. The fund will normally invest at least 80% of total
assets in debt securities of all types with short to intermediate maturities.
Under normal market conditions, it is anticipated that the fund's average
weighted maturity will range between one and five years. At least 65% of the
fund's total assets will consist of bonds rated in one of the three highest
rating categories by at least one nationally recognized statistical rating
organization ("NRSRO") at the time of investment, or, if unrated, determined by
the Adviser to be of comparable quality. In addition, at least 65% of total
assets will consist of obligations issued by the U.S. government or its
agencies and instrumentalities, some of which may be subject to repurchase
agreements. The fund also may purchase taxable or tax-exempt municipal
securities. Up to 20% of the fund's total assets may be invested in preferred
stocks.
The One Group(R) Intermediate Bond Fund
The One Group(R) Intermediate Bond Fund seeks current income consistent with
the preservation of capital through investments in high and medium-grade
fixed-income securities with intermediate maturities. The fund will normally
invest at least 80% of total assets in debt securities of all types. Under
normal market conditions, it is anticipated that the fund's average weighted
maturity will range between three and ten years. At least 65% of the fund's
total assets will consist of bonds rated in one of the three highest rating
categories by at least one NRSRO at the time of investment, or, if unrated,
determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. However, the Adviser
reserves the right to invest in more speculative debt securities if they
present attractive opportunities and are rated in the fourth highest rating
category by at least one NRSRO at the time of investment or, if unrated,
determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. In addition, at least
50% of total assets will consist of obligations issued by the U.S. government
or its agencies and instrumentalities, some of which may be subject to
repurchase agreements. The fund may also purchase taxable and tax-exempt
municipal securities. Up to 20% of the fund's total assets may be invested in
preferred stocks.
The One Group(R) Income Bond Fund
The One Group(R) Income Bond Fund seeks current income by investing in a
portfolio of high and medium-grade fixed-income securities. The fund will
normally invest at least 80% of total assets in debt securities of all types.
Under normal market conditions, it is anticipated that the fund's average
weighted maturity will range between five and fifteen years. At least 65% of
the fund's total assets will consist of bonds rated in one of the three highest
rating categories by at least one NRSRO at the time of investment, or, if
unrated, determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. However, the
Adviser reserves the right to invest in more speculative debt securities if
they present attractive opportunities and are rated in the fourth highest
rating category by at least one
9
<PAGE> 83
NRSRO at the time of investment or, if unrated, determined by the Adviser to be
of comparable quality. The fund may also purchase taxable or tax-exempt
municipal securities. Up to 20% of the fund's total assets may be invested in
preferred stocks.
The One Group(R) Government Bond Fund
The One Group(R) Government Bond Fund seeks a high level of current income with
liquidity and safety of principal. The fund seeks to achieve its objective
principally through investment in securities issued by the U.S. government and
its agencies and instrumentalities. At least 65% of the total assets of the
fund will be invested in obligations guaranteed as to principal and interest by
the U.S. government or its agencies and instrumentalities, some of which may be
subject to repurchase agreements, and other securities representing an interest
in or collateralized by mortgages that are issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
government, its agencies or instrumentalities. The balance of the fund's assets
may be invested in debt securities and taxable or tax-exempt municipal
securities. The average weighted remaining maturity of the fund is expected to
be between three and fifteen years.
The One Group(R) Ultra Short-Term Income Fund
The One Group(R) Ultra Short-Term Income Fund seeks a high level of current
income consistent with low volatility of principal by investing in a
diversified portfolio of short-term investment grade securities. The fund will
normally invest at least 80% of its total assets in debt securities of all
types, including money market instruments. In addition, up to 20% of the fund's
total assets may be invested in other securities, including preferred stock.
The fund will invest in adjustable rate mortgage pass-through securities and
other securities representing an interest in or collateralized by mortgages
with periodic interest rate resets, some of which may be subject to repurchase
agreements. These securities often are issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
government, its agencies or instrumentalities. However, the fund also may
purchase mortgage-backed securities that are issued by non-governmental
entities. Such securities may or may not have private insurer guarantees as to
timely payments. The fund also may purchase mortgage and interest rate swaps
and interest rate floors and caps. The fund also may employ other investment
techniques to enhance returns, such as loans of fund securities, mortgage
dollar rolls, repurchase agreements, options contracts and reverse repurchase
agreements.
The Fund will maintain a maximum duration of approximately two years. Under
normal interest rate conditions, the Fund's actual duration is expected to be
in a range of approximately six months to one year.
RISK FACTORS
The investments of the Fund are concentrated in the Underlying Funds, so the
Fund's investment performance is directly related to the performance of the
Underlying Funds. In addition, as a matter of fundamental policy, the Fund must
allocate its investments among the Underlying Funds within certain ranges. As a
result, the Fund does not have the same flexibility to invest as a mutual fund
without such constraints.
The Fund may invest in Underlying Funds which invest in medium or lower grade
bonds. If these bonds are downgraded, the Adviser will consider whether to
increase or decrease the Fund's investment in the affected Underlying Fund.
Further, the Fund may invest in Underlying Funds which concentrate their assets
in certain industries. Under certain circumstances, this could result in the
Fund being concentrated in those industries. If this were to occur, the Adviser
would consider whether to maintain or change the Fund's investments in such
Underlying Funds.
Special Risks of Investing in Equity Funds
Changes in the value of an equity fund's portfolio securities will not affect
cash income, if any, derived from these securities but will affect the fund's
net asset value. Because equity funds invest primarily in equity securities,
which fluctuate in value, the funds' shares also will fluctuate in value. In
addition, certain investment management techniques that the funds may use, such
as the purchase and sale of futures, options and forward commitments, could
expose the funds to potentially greater risk of loss than more traditional
equity investments.
Special Risks of Investing in Fixed-Income Funds
The market value of a fund's fixed-income investments will change in response
to interest rate changes and other factors. During periods of falling interest
rates, the values of outstanding fixed-income securities generally rise.
Conversely, during periods of rising interest rates, the values of such
securities generally decline. Moreover, while securities with longer maturities
tend to produce higher yields, the prices of longer maturity securities are
also subject to greater market fluctuations as a result of changes in interest
rates. Changes by recognized agencies in the rating of any fixed-income
security and in the ability of an issuer to make payments of interest and
principal also affect the value of these investments. Except under condition of
default, changes in the value of fixed-income securities will not affect cash
income derived from these securities but will affect the funds' net asset
value.
10
<PAGE> 84
Special Risks of Investing in Index Funds
Because of the funds' investment objectives, securities may be purchased,
retained and sold by the funds when such transactions would not be consistent
with traditional investment criteria. Accordingly, an investor is exposed to a
greater risk of loss (and a correspondingly greater prospect of gain) from
fluctuations in the value of such securities than would be the case if the
funds were not fully invested in such securities. In addition, the Adviser may
eliminate one or more securities or elect not to increase the funds' position
in such securities notwithstanding the continued listing of such securities on
the relevant index in the following circumstances: (i) the stock is no longer
publicly traded; or (ii) an unexpected adverse development occurs with respect
to a company such as bankruptcy or insolvency. As a result of these risk
factors, the share price of an index fund is expected to be volatile, and
investors should be able to sustain sudden, sometimes substantial, fluctuations
in the value of their investment.
Special Risks of Foreign Securities
Investments in securities of foreign issuers involve risks that are different
from investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These risks may include future
unfavorable political and economic developments, possible withholding taxes,
seizure of foreign deposits, currency controls, higher transaction costs, and
delayed settlements of transactions. Securities of some foreign companies are
less liquid, and their prices more volatile, than securities of comparable U.S.
companies. Additionally, there may be less public information available about
foreign issuers. Finally, since the funds may invest in securities denominated
in foreign currencies, changes in exchange rates may affect the value of
investments in the funds.
Special Risks of Small Capitalization Companies
Smaller, less seasoned companies may be subject to greater business risk than
larger, established companies. They may be more vulnerable to changes in
economic conditions, specific industry conditions, market fluctuations and
other factors affecting the profitability of companies. Therefore, the stock
price of smaller capitalization companies may be subject to greater price
fluctuations than that of larger, established companies. Due to these and other
risk factors, the price movement of the securities held by the funds may be
volatile and the net asset value of shares of the funds may fluctuate.
Special Risks of Mortgage Related Securities
Some of the funds invest in mortgage-related securities, such as
mortgage-backed securities, adjustable rate mortgage loans ("ARMs"), fixed rate
mortgage loans, and mortgage dollar rolls. The investment characteristics of
mortgage-related securities differ from traditional debt securities. These
differences can result in significantly greater price and yield volatility than
is the case with traditional fixed-income securities. The major differences
typically include more frequent interest and principal payments, usually
monthly, the adjustability of interest rates, and the possibility that
prepayments of principal may be made at any time. Prepayment rates are
influenced by changes in current interest rates and a variety of economic,
geographic, social, and other factors. During periods of declining interest
rates, prepayment rates can be expected to accelerate. Under certain interest
rate and prepayment rate scenarios, a fund may fail to recoup fully its
investment in mortgage-related securities notwithstanding a direct or indirect
governmental or agency guarantee. The funds intend to use hedging techniques to
control this risk. In general, changes in the rate of prepayments on a
mortgage-related security will change that security's market value and its
yield to maturity. When interest rates fall, high prepayments could force a
fund to reinvest principal at a time when investment opportunities are not
attractive. Thus, mortgage-related securities may not be an affective means for
a fund to lock in long-term interest rates. Conversely, during periods when
interest rates rise, slow prepayments could cause the average life of the
security to lengthen and the value to decline more than anticipated.
HOW TO DO BUSINESS WITH
THE ONE GROUP(R)
HOW TO INVEST IN THE ONE GROUP(R)
Shares of the Fund are sold on a continuous basis and may be purchased directly
from the Trust's Distributor, The One Group(R) Services Company, by mail, by
telephone, or by wire. Shares may also be purchased through a financial
institution, such as a bank, savings and loan association or insurance company
(each a "Shareholder Servicing Agent"), that has established a Shareholder
servicing agreement with the Distributor, or through a broker-dealer that has
established a dealer agreement with the Distributor.
Purchases and redemptions of shares of the Fund may be made on any day that the
New York Stock Exchange is open for trading ("Business Days"). The minimum
initial and subsequent investments in the Fund are $1,000 and $100 respectively
($100 and $25, respectively, for employees of BANC ONE CORPORATION and its
affiliates). Initial and subsequent investment minimums may
11
<PAGE> 85
be waived at the Distributor's discretion. Investors may purchase up to a
maximum of $250,000 of Class B shares per individual purchase order.
CLASS A SHARES ARE OFFERED TO IRA ACCOUNT PARTICIPANTS AND OTHER LONG-TERM
INVESTORS. CLASS B SHARES ARE OFFERED TO INVESTORS IN CERTAIN RETIREMENT PLANS
SUCH AS 401(K) AND SIMILAR QUALIFIED PLANS. Fiduciary Class shares are offered
to institutional investors, including affiliates of BANC ONE CORPORATION and
any bank, depository institution, insurance company, pension plan or other
organization authorized to act in fiduciary, advisory, agency, custodial or
similar capacities (each an "Authorized Financial Organization"). For
additional details regarding eligibility, call the Distributor at
1-800-480-4111.
BY MAIL
Investors may purchase Class A and Class B shares of the Fund by completing and
signing an Account Application Form and mailing it, along with a check (or
other negotiable bank instrument or money order) payable to "The One Group(R),"
to State Street Bank and Trust Company (the Trust's Transfer Agent and
Custodian), P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500. Subsequent purchases of
shares may be made at any time by mailing a check to the Transfer Agent.
Account Application Forms are available through the Distributor by calling
1-800-480-4111.
Purchases of Fiduciary Class shares, and Class B shares that are being offered
to investors in certain retirement plans such as 401(k) and similar plans,
other than Individual Retirement Accounts, are made by an institutional
investor and/or other intermediary on behalf of an investor (each also a
"Shareholder Servicing Agent"). The Shareholder Servicing Agent may require an
investor to complete forms in addition to the Account Application Form and to
follow procedures established by the Shareholder Servicing Agent. Such
Shareholders should contact their Shareholder Servicing Agents regarding
purchases, exchanges and redemptions of shares. See "Additional Information
Regarding Purchases."
BY TELEPHONE OR BY WIRE
Once an Account Application Form has been received, Shareholders are eligible
to make purchases by telephone or wire (if that option has been selected by a
Shareholder) by calling the Transfer Agent at 1-800-480-4111 or the Shareholder
Servicing Agents, if applicable.
Shareholders may revoke their automatic eligibility to make purchases and/or
redemptions by telephone or by wire, by sending a letter so stating to the
Transfer Agent, State Street Bank and Trust Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA
02266-8500.
SYSTEMATIC INVESTMENT PLAN
Class A and Class B investors may make automatic monthly investments in the
Fund from their bank, savings and loan or other depository institution
accounts. The minimum initial and subsequent investments must be $25 under the
Systematic Investment Plan, which minimum may be waived at the discretion of
the Distributor. The Trust pays the costs associated with these transfers, but
reserves the right, upon thirty days' written notice, to impose reasonable
charges for this service. A depository institution may impose a charge for
debiting an investor's account which would reduce the investor's return from an
investment in the Fund.
FUND-DIRECT IRA
The Trust offers a tax-advantaged retirement plan for which the Fund may be an
appropriate investment. The Trust's retirement plan allows participants to
defer taxes while helping them build their retirement savings.
The One Group(R)Fund-Direct IRA is a retirement plan with a wide choice of
investments offering people with earned income the opportunity to compound
earnings on a tax-deferred basis. An IRA Adoption Agreement may be obtained by
calling the Distributor at 1-800-480-4111.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING PURCHASES
A purchase order will be effective as of the day received by the Distributor if
the Distributor receives the order before 4:00 p.m., eastern time. However, an
order may be cancelled if the Transfer Agent does not receive Federal funds
before close of business on the next Business Day for Fiduciary Class shares,
and before the close of business on the third Business Day for Class A and
Class B shares, and the investor could be liable for any fees or expenses
incurred by the Trust. Federal funds are monies credited to a bank's account
with a Federal Reserve Bank. The purchase price of shares of the Fund is the
net asset value next determined after a purchase order is effected plus any
applicable sales charge (the "offering price"). The net asset value per share
of the Fund is determined by dividing the total market value of the Fund's
investments and other assets allocable to a class, less any liabilities
allocable to that class, by the total number of outstanding shares of such
class. Net asset value per share is determined daily as of
12
<PAGE> 86
4:00 p.m., eastern time, on each Business Day. For a further discussion of the
calculation of net asset value, see the Statement of Additional Information.
Shares may also be issued in transactions involving the acquisition by the Fund
of securities held by collective investment funds sponsored and administered by
affiliates of the Adviser. Purchases will be made in full and fractional shares
of the Fund calculated to three decimal places. Although the methodology and
procedures are identical, the net asset value per share of classes within the
Fund may differ because the distribution expenses charged to Class A shares and
Class B shares are not charged to Fiduciary Class shares.
The Trust reserves the right to reject a purchase order when the Distributor
determines that it is not in the best interest of the Trust and/or its
Shareholders to accept such order. Except as provided below, neither the
Trust's Transfer Agent nor the Trust will be responsible for any loss,
liability, cost or expense for acting upon telephone or wire instructions, and
the investor will bear all risk of loss. The Trust will employ reasonable
procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine,
including requiring a form of personal identification prior to acting upon
instructions received by telephone and recording telephone instructions. If
such procedures are not employed, the Trust may be liable for any losses due to
unauthorized or fraudulent instructions.
Fiduciary Class shares offered to institutional investors and to investors in
certain retirement plans, Class A shares offered to IRA account participants
and Class B shares that are offered to investors in certain retirement plans
such as 401(k) and similar plans, other than Individual Retirement Accounts,
will normally be held in the name of the Shareholder Servicing Agent effecting
the purchase on the Shareholder's behalf, and it is the Shareholder Servicing
Agent's responsibility to transmit purchase orders to the Distributor. A
Shareholder Servicing Agent may impose an earlier cut-off time for receipt of
purchase orders directed through it to allow for processing and transmittal of
these orders to the Distributor for effectiveness the same day. The Shareholder
should contact his or her Shareholder Servicing Agent for information as to the
Shareholder Servicing Agent's procedures for transmitting purchase, exchange or
redemption orders to the Trust. A Shareholder who desires to transfer the
registration of shares beneficially owned by him or her, but held of record by
a Shareholder Servicing Agent, should contact the Shareholder Servicing Agent
to accomplish such change. Other Shareholders who desire to transfer the
registration of their shares should contact the Transfer Agent.
No certificates representing shares of the Fund will be issued. In
communications to Shareholders, the Fund will not duplicate mailings of Fund
material to Shareholders who reside at the same address.
SALES CHARGE
The following table shows the initial sales charge on Class A shares to a
"single purchaser" (defined below) together with the sales charge reallowed to
financial institutions and intermediaries (the "commission"):

</TABLE>
The commissions shown in the table apply to sales through financial
institutions and intermediaries. Under certain circumstances, the Distributor
will use its own funds to compensate financial institutions and intermediaries
in amounts that are additional to the commissions shown above. The maximum cash
compensation payable by the Distributor as a sales charge is 3.00% of the
offering price (including the commission shown above and additional cash
compensation described below). In addition, the Distributor will, from time to
time and at its own expense, provide promotional incentives to financial
institutions and intermediaries, whose registered representatives have sold or
are expected to sell significant amounts of the shares of the Fund in the form
of payment for travel expenses, including lodging, incurred in connection with
trips taken by qualifying registered representatives to places within or
outside the United States, and additional compensation in an amount up to 1.00%
of the offering price of Class A shares of the Fund for sales of $1 million to
$5 million, and 0.50% for sales over $5 million. A Shareholder who purchases $1
million or more of Class A shares and is not assessed a sales charge the time
of purchase, will be assessed a sales charge equivalent to 1% of the purchase
price if such Shareholder redeems any or all of the Class A shares prior to the
first anniversary of purchase. Under certain circumstances, commissions up to
the amount of the entire sales charge will be reallowed to financial
institutions and intermediaries, which might then be deemed to be
"underwriters" under the Securities Act of 1933.

RIGHT OF ACCUMULATION
In calculating the sales charge rates applicable to current purchases of Class
A shares, a "single purchaser" is entitled to cumulate current purchases with
the current value at the offering price of previously purchased Class A and
Class B shares of the Fund and other eligible funds of the Trust, other than
the Trust's money market funds, that are sold subject to a comparable sales
charge.
The term "single purchaser" refers to (i) an individual, (ii) an individual and
spouse purchasing shares of the Fund for their own account or for trust or
custodial accounts for their minor children, or (iii) a fiduciary purchasing
for any one trust, estate or fiduciary account, including employee benefit
plans created under Sections 401 or 457 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code"), and including related plans of the same employer. To
be entitled to a reduced sales charge based upon shares already owned, the
investor must ask the Distributor for such reduction at the time of purchase
and provide the account number(s) of the investor, the investor and spouse, and
their minor children, and give the age of such children. The Fund may amend or
terminate this right of accumulation at any time as to subsequent purchases.
LETTER OF INTENT
By initially investing at least $2,000 in Class A shares of one or more funds
that impose a comparable sales charge over the next 13 months, the sales charge
may be reduced by completing the Letter of Intent section of the Account
Application Form. The Letter of Intent includes a provision for a sales charge
adjustment depending on the amount actually purchased within the 13-month
period. In addition, pursuant to a Letter of Intent, the Custodian will hold in
escrow the difference between the sales charge applicable to the amount
initially purchased and the sales charge paid at the time of investment, which
is based on the amount covered by the Letter of Intent.
For example, assume an investor signs a Letter of Intent to purchase $250,000
in Class A shares of one (or more) of the funds of the Trust that imposes a
comparable sales charge and, at the time of signing the Letter of Intent,
purchases $100,000 of Class A shares of one of these funds. The investor would
pay an initial sales charge of 2.00% (the sales charge applicable to purchases
of $250,000) and .50% of the investment (representing the difference between
the 2.50% sales charge applicable to purchases of $100,000 and the 2.00% sales
charge already paid) would be held in escrow until the investor has purchased
the remaining $150,000 or more in Class A shares under the investor's Letter of
Intent.
The amount held in escrow will be applied to the investor's account at the end
of the 13-month period unless the amount specified in the Letter of Intent is
not purchased. In order to qualify for a Letter of Intent, the investor will be
required to make a minimum purchase of at least $2,000.
The Letter of Intent will not obligate the investor to purchase Class A shares,
but if he or she does, each purchase during the period will be at the sales
charge applicable to the total amount intended to be purchased. The Letter of
Intent may be dated as of a prior date to include any purchases made within the
past 90 days.
OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES
No sales charge is imposed on Class A shares of the Fund: (i) issued through
reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions; (ii) acquired
through the exercise of exchange privileges where a comparable sales charge has
been paid for exchanged shares; (iii) purchased by officers, directors or
trustees, retirees and employees (and their spouses and immediate family
members) of the Trust, of BANC ONE CORPORATION and its subsidiaries and
affiliates, of the Distributor and its subsidiaries and affiliates, or of an
investment sub-adviser of a fund of the Trust and such sub-adviser's
subsidiaries and affiliates; (iv) sold to affiliates of BANC ONE CORPORATION
and certain accounts (other than Individual Retirement Accounts) for which
Authorized Financial Organizations act in fiduciary, advisory, agency,
custodial or similar capacities, or purchased by investment advisers, financial
planners or other intermediaries who have a dealer arrangement with the
Distributor, who place trades for their own accounts or for the accounts of
their clients and who charge a management, consulting or other fee for their
services, as well as clients of such investment advisers, financial planners or
other intermediaries who place trades for their own accounts if the accounts
are linked to the master account of such investment adviser, financial planner
or other intermediary; (v) purchased with proceeds from the recent redemption
of Fiduciary Class shares of a fund of the Trust or acquired in an exchange of
Fiduciary Class shares of a fund for Class A shares of the same fund; (vi)
purchased with proceeds from the recent redemption of shares of a mutual fund
(other than a fund of the Trust) for which a sales charge was paid; (vii)
purchased in an Individual Retirement Account with the proceeds of a
distribution from an employee benefit plan, provided that, at the time of
distribution, the employee benefit plan had plan assets invested in a fund of
the Trust; (viii) purchased with Trust assets; (ix) purchased in accounts as to
which a bank or broker-dealer charges an asset allocation fee, provided the
bank or broker-dealer has an agreement with the Distributor; (x) directly
purchased with the proceeds of a distribution on a bond for which a BANC ONE
CORPORATION affiliate bank or trust company is the Trustee or Paying Agent; or
(xi) purchased in connection with plans of reorganization of the Fund, such as
mergers, asset acquisitions and exchange offers to which the Fund is a party.

An investor relying upon any of the categories of waivers of the sales charge
must qualify for such waiver in advance of the purchase with the Distributor or
the financial institution or intermediary through which shares are purchased by
the investor.
The waiver of the sales charge under circumstances (v), (vi), and (vii) above
applies only if the purchase is made within 60 days of the redemption or
distribution and if conditions imposed by the Distributor are met. The waiver
policy with respect to the purchase of shares through the use of proceeds from
a recent redemption or distribution as described in clauses (v), (vi), and
(vii) above will not be continued indefinitely and may be discontinued at any
time without notice. Investors should call the Distributor at 1-800-480-4111 to
determine whether they are eligible to purchase shares without paying a sales
charge through the use of proceeds from a recent redemption or distribution as
described above, and to confirm continued availability of these waiver policies
prior to initiating the procedures described in clauses (v), (vi), and (vii).
ALTERNATIVE SALES ARRANGEMENTS
CLASS B SHARES
Class B shares are not subject to a sales charge when they are purchased, but
are subject to a sales charge (the "Contingent Deferred Sales Charge") if a
Shareholder redeems them prior to the sixth anniversary of purchase. When a
Shareholder purchases Class B shares, the full purchase amount is invested
directly in the Fund. Class B shares of the Fund are subject to an ongoing
distribution and Shareholder service fee at an annual rate of 1.00% of the
Fund's average daily net assets as provided in the Class B Plan (described
below under "The Distributor"). This ongoing fee will cause Class B shares to
have a higher expense ratio and to pay lower dividends than Class A shares.
Class B shares convert automatically to Class A shares after eight years,
commencing from the end of the calendar month in which the purchase order was
accepted under the circumstances and subject to the qualifications described in
this Prospectus.
Proceeds from the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the distribution and
Shareholder service fees under the Class B Plan are payable to the Distributor
and financial intermediaries to defray the expenses of advance brokerage
commissions and expenses related to providing distribution-related and
Shareholder services to the Fund in connection with the sale of the Class B
shares, such as the payment of compensation to dealers and agents for selling
Class B shares. A dealer reallowance of 4.00% of the original purchase price of
the Class B shares will be paid to financial institutions and intermediaries.
CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE
If the Shareholder redeems Class B shares prior to the sixth anniversary of
purchase, the Shareholder will pay a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge at the
rates set forth below. The Contingent Deferred Sales Charge is assessed on an
amount equal to the lesser of the then-current market value or the cost of the
shares being redeemed. Accordingly, no sales charge is imposed on increases in
net asset value above the initial purchase price. In addition, no charge is
assessed on shares derived from reinvestment of dividends or capital gain
distributions.
The amount of the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge, if any, varies depending on
the number of years from the time of payment for the purchase of Class B shares
until the time of redemption of such shares. Solely for purposes of determining
the number of years from the time of any payment for the purchase of shares,
all payments during a month are aggregated and deemed to have been made on the
first day of the month.
<TABLE>

In determining whether a particular redemption is subject to a Contingent
Deferred Sales Charge, it is assumed that the redemption is first of any Class
A shares in the Shareholder's Fund account (unless the Shareholder elects to
have Class B shares redeemed first)
15
<PAGE> 89
or shares representing capital appreciation, next of shares acquired pursuant
to reinvestment of dividends and capital gain distributions, and finally of
other shares held by the Shareholder for the longest period of time. This
method should result in the lowest possible sales charge.
To provide an example, assume you purchased 100 shares at $10 per share (a
total cost of $1,000) and prior to the second anniversary after purchase, the
net asset value per share is $12 and during such time you have acquired 10
additional shares through dividends paid in shares. If you then make your first
redemption of 50 shares (proceeds of $600), 10 shares will not be subject to
charge because you received them as dividends. With respect to the remaining 40
shares, the charge is applied only to the original cost of $10 per share and
not to the increase in net asset value of $2 per share. Therefore, $400 of the
$600 redemption proceeds is subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge at a
rate of 4.00% (the applicable rate prior to the second anniversary after
purchase).
The Contingent Deferred Sales Charge is waived on redemption of shares: (i) for
distributions that are made under a Systematic Withdrawal Plan of the Trust and
that are limited to no more than 10% of the account value annually, determined
in the first year as of the date the redemption request is received by the
Transfer Agent, and in subsequent years, as of the most recent anniversary of
that date; (ii) following the death or disability (as defined in the Code) of a
Shareholder or a participant or beneficiary of a qualifying retirement plan if
redemption is made within one year of such death or disability; or (iii) to the
extent that the redemption represents a minimum required distribution from an
Individual Retirement Account or other qualifying retirement plan to a
Shareholder who has attained the age of 70 1/2. A Shareholder or his or her
representative should contact the Transfer Agent to determine whether a
retirement plan qualifies for a waiver and must notify the Transfer Agent prior
to the time of redemption if such circumstances exist and the Shareholder is
eligible for this waiver. In addition, the following circumstances are not
deemed to result in a "redemption" of Class B shares for purposes of the
assessment of a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge, which is therefore waived:
(i) plans of reorganization of the Fund, such as mergers, asset acquisitions
and exchange offers to which the Fund is a party; or (ii) exchanges for Class B
shares of other funds of the Trust as described under "Exchanges."
CONVERSION FEATURE
Class B shares include all shares purchased pursuant to the Contingent Deferred
Sales Charge which have been outstanding for less than the period ending eight
years after the end of the month in which the shares were purchased. At the end
of this period, Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares and
will be subject to the lower distribution and Shareholder service fees charged
to Class A shares. Such conversion will be on the basis of the relative net
asset values of the two classes, without the imposition of any sales charge,
fee or other charge. The conversion is not a taxable event to a Shareholder.
For purposes of conversion to Class A shares, shares received as dividends and
other distributions paid on Class B shares in a Shareholder's Fund account will
be considered to be held in a separate sub-account. Each time any Class B
shares in a Shareholder's Fund account (other than those in the sub-account)
convert to Class A shares, a pro-rata portion of the Class B shares in the
sub-account will also convert to Class A shares.
If a Shareholder effects one or more exchanges among Class B shares of the
funds of the Trust during the eight-year period, the Trust will aggregate the
holding periods for the shares of each fund of the Trust for purposes of
calculating that eight-year period. Because the per share net asset value of
the Class A shares may be higher than that of the Class B shares at the time of
conversion, a Shareholder may receive fewer Class A shares than the number of
Class B shares converted, although the dollar value will be the same.
EXCHANGES
CLASS A AND FIDUCIARY CLASS
Fiduciary Class Shareholders of the Fund may exchange their shares for Class A
shares of the Fund or for Class A shares or Fiduciary Class shares of another
fund of the Trust.
Class A Shareholders may exchange their shares for Fiduciary Class shares of
the Fund or for Fiduciary Class shares or Class A shares of another fund of the
Trust, if the Shareholder is eligible to purchase such shares.
The exchange privilege may be exercised only in those states where the shares
of the Fund or such other fund of the Trust may be legally sold. All exchanges
discussed herein are made at the net asset value of the exchanged shares,
except as provided below. The Trust does not impose a charge for processing
exchanges of shares. If a Shareholder seeks to exchange Class A shares of a
fund that does not impose a sales charge for Class A shares of a fund that does
or the fund being exchanged into has a higher sales charge, the Shareholder
will be required to pay a sales charge in the amount equal to the difference
between the sales charge applicable to the fund into which the shares are being
exchanged and any sales charges previously paid for the exchanged shares,
including any sales charges incurred on any earlier exchanges of the shares
(unless such sales charge is otherwise waived, as provided in "Other
16
<PAGE> 90
Circumstances"). The exchange of Fiduciary Class shares for Class A shares
also will require payment of the sales charge unless the sales charge is
waived, as provided in "Other Circumstances."
CLASS B
Class B Shareholders of the Fund may exchange their shares for Class B shares
of any other fund of the Trust on the basis of the net asset value of the
exchanged Class B shares, without the payment of any Contingent Deferred Sales
Charge that might otherwise be due upon redemption of the outstanding Class B
shares. The newly acquired Class B shares will be subject to the higher
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge of either the fund from which the shares were
exchanged or the fund into which the shares were exchanged. With respect to
outstanding Class B shares as to which previous exchanges have taken place,
"higher Contingent Deferred Sales Charge" shall mean the higher of the
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge applicable to either the fund the shares are
exchanging into or any other fund from which the shares previously have been
exchanged. For purposes of computing the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge that
may be payable upon a disposition of the newly acquired Class B shares, the
holding period for outstanding Class B shares of the fund from which the
exchange was made is "tacked" to the holding period of the newly acquired Class
B shares. For purposes of calculating the holding period applicable to the
newly acquired Class B shares, the newly acquired Class B shares shall be
deemed to have been issued on the date of receipt of the Shareholder's order to
purchase the outstanding Class B shares of the fund from which the initial
exchange was made.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING EXCHANGES
In the case of shares held of record by a Shareholder Servicing Agent but
beneficially owned by a Shareholder, to exchange such shares the Shareholder
should contact the Shareholder Servicing Agent, who will contact the Transfer
Agent and effect the exchange on behalf of the Shareholder. If an exchange
request in good order is received by the Transfer Agent by 4:00 p.m., eastern
time, on any Business Day, the exchange usually will occur on that day. Any
Shareholder who wishes to make an exchange must receive a current prospectus of
the fund of the Trust in which he or she wishes to invest before the exchange
will be effected.
The Trust reserves the right to change the terms or conditions of the exchange
privilege discussed herein upon sixty days' written notice. An exchange between
classes of shares of the same fund is not considered a taxable event; however,
an exchange between funds of the Trust is considered a sale of shares and
usually results in a capital gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes.
Shareholders should consult their tax advisers for a more complete explanation
of the Federal income tax consequences of an exchange of shares of the Fund.
A more detailed description of the above is set forth in the Statement of
Additional Information.
REDEMPTIONS
Shareholders may redeem their shares without charge (except Class B shares, as
provided above) on any Business Day; shares may ordinarily be redeemed by mail,
by telephone or by wire. All redemption orders are effected at the net asset
value per share next determined for Class A and Fiduciary Class shares, and at
net asset value per share next determined reduced by any applicable contingent
deferred sales charge for Class B shares, after receipt of a valid request for
redemption. Payment to Shareholders for shares redeemed will be made within
seven days after receipt by the Transfer Agent of the request for redemption.
BY MAIL
A written request for redemption must be received by the Transfer Agent in
order to constitute a valid request for redemption. All written redemption
requests should be sent to The One Group(R), c/o State Street Bank and Trust
Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500, or the Shareholder Servicing
Agent, if applicable. The Transfer Agent may require that the signature on the
written request be guaranteed by a commercial bank, a member firm of a domestic
stock exchange, or by a member of the Securities Transfer Association Medallion
Program or the Stock Exchange Medallion Program.
The signature guarantee requirement will be waived if all of the following
conditions apply: (i) the redemption is for $5,000 worth of shares or less;
(ii) the redemption check is payable to the Shareholder(s) of record; and (iii)
the redemption check is mailed to the Shareholder(s) at the address of record.
The Shareholder may also have the proceeds mailed to a commercial bank account
previously designated on the Account Application Form or by written instruction
to the Transfer Agent or the Shareholder Servicing Agent, if applicable. There
is no charge for having redemption requests mailed to a designated bank
account.
17
<PAGE> 91
BY TELEPHONE OR BY WIRE
Shareholders may have the payment of redemption requests wired or mailed to a
domestic commercial bank account previously designated on the Account
Application Form. Wire redemption requests may be made by the Shareholder by
telephone to the Transfer Agent at 1-800-480-4111, provided that the
Shareholder has elected the telephone redemption privilege in writing to the
Distributor, or to the Shareholder Servicing Agent, if applicable. The Transfer
Agent may reduce the amount of a wire redemption payment by its then-current
wire redemption charge, which, as of the date of this Prospectus, is $7.00.
Neither the Trust nor the Transfer Agent will be responsible for the
authenticity of the redemption instructions received by telephone if it
reasonably believes those instructions to be genuine. The Trust and the
Transfer Agent will each employ reasonable procedures to confirm that telephone
instructions are genuine, and may be liable for losses resulting from
unauthorized or fraudulent telephone transactions if it does not employ those
procedures. Such procedures may include requesting personal identification
information or recording telephone conversations.
SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PLAN
Shareholders whose accounts have a value of at least $10,000 may elect to
receive, or may designate another person to receive, monthly, quarterly or
annual payments in a specified amount of not less than $100 each. There is no
charge for this service. Under the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, all dividends
and distributions must be reinvested in shares of the Fund. Purchases of
additional Class A or Class B shares while the Systematic Withdrawal Plan is in
effect are generally undesirable because a sales charge is incurred whenever
purchases are made.
Pursuant to the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, Class B shareholders may elect to
receive, or may designate another person to receive, distributions provided the
distributions are limited to no more than 10% of their account value annually,
determined in the first year as of the date the redemption request is received
by the Transfer Agent, and in subsequent years, as of the most recent
anniversary of that date.
In addition, Shareholders who have attained the age of 70 1/2 may elect to
receive distributions, to the extent that the redemption represents a minimum
required distribution from an Individual Retirement Account or other qualifying
retirement plan.
If the amount of systematic withdrawal exceeds income accrued since the
previous withdrawal under the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, the principal balance
invested will be reduced and shares will be redeemed.
OTHER INFORMATION REGARDING REDEMPTIONS
At various times, the Fund may be requested to redeem shares for which it has
not yet received good payment. In such circumstances, the forwarding of
proceeds may be delayed for 15 or more days until payment has been collected
for the purchase of such shares. The Fund intends to pay cash for all shares
redeemed.
Due to the relatively high costs of handling small investments, the Fund
reserves the right to redeem, at net asset value, the shares of any Shareholder
if, because of redemptions of shares by or on behalf of the Shareholder, the
account of such Shareholder in the Fund has a value of less than $1,000, the
minimum initial purchase amount. Accordingly, an investor purchasing shares of
the Fund in only the minimum investment amount may be subject to such
involuntary redemption if he or she thereafter redeems any of these shares.
Before the Fund exercises its right to redeem such shares and to send the
proceeds to the Shareholder, the Shareholder will be given notice that the
value of the shares in his or her account is less than the minimum amount and
will be allowed 60 days to make an additional investment in the Fund in an
amount which will increase the value of the account to at least $1,000.
See the Statement of Additional Information for examples of when the Trust may
suspend the right of redemption or redeem shares involuntarily if it appears
appropriate to do so in light of the Trust's responsibilities under the
Investment Company Act of 1940.
FUND MANAGEMENT
THE ADVISER
The Trust and Banc One Investment Advisors Corporation (the "Adviser") have
entered into an investment advisory agreement (the "Advisory Agreement"). Under
the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser makes the investment decisions for the
assets of the Fund and continuously reviews, supervises and administers the
Fund's investment program. The Adviser discharges its responsibilities subject
to the supervision of, and policies established by, the Trustees of the Trust.
The Trust's shares are not deposits or obligations of, or endorsed or
guaranteed by BANC ONE CORPORATION or its bank or non-bank affiliates. The
Trust's shares are not insured or
18
<PAGE> 92
guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") or by any
other governmental agency or government sponsored agency of the Federal
government or any state.
The Adviser is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of BANC ONE CORPORATION, a
bank holding company incorporated in the state of Ohio. BANC ONE CORPORATION
currently has affiliate banking organizations in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois,
Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Ohio, Oklahoma, Texas, Utah, West Virginia and
Wisconsin. In addition, BANC ONE CORPORATION has several affiliates that engage
in data processing, venture capital, investment and merchant banking, and other
diversified services including trust management, investment management,
brokerage, equipment leasing, mortgage banking, consumer finance and insurance.
On a consolidated basis, BANC ONE CORPORATION had assets of over $90.5 billion
as of December 31, 1995.
The Adviser represents a consolidation of the investment advisory staffs of a
number of bank affiliates of BANC ONE CORPORATION, which have considerable
experience in the management of open-end management investment company
portfolios, including The One Group(R) since 1985 (then known as "The Helmsman
Fund").
No single person is responsible for managing the assets of the Fund. Rather,
investment decisions for the Fund are made by committee.
The Adviser is entitled to a fee which is calculated daily and paid monthly, at
an annual rate of .05% of the average daily net assets of the Fund.
The Adviser also serves as investment adviser to each of the Underlying Funds.
As a shareholder of each of the Underlying Funds, the Fund will indirectly bear
is proportionate share of investment advisory fees paid by those funds. The
Underlying Funds pay the Adviser an advisory fee at the following rates:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
The One Group(R) Prime Money Market Fund .27%
The One Group(R) Limited Volatility Bond Fund .30%
The One Group(R) Intermediate Bond Fund .30%

The One Group(R) Gulf South Growth Fund .65%
The One Group(R) Income Equity Fund .74%
The One Group(R) Equity Index Fund .10%
</TABLE>
THE DISTRIBUTOR
The One Group(R) Services Company (the "Distributor"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the BISYS Group, Inc., and the Trust are parties to a
distribution agreement (the "Distribution Agreement") under which shares of the
Fund are sold on a continuous basis.
Class A shares are subject to a distribution and Shareholder services plan (the
"Plan"). As provided in the Plan, the Trust will pay the Distributor a fee of
.35% of the average daily net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. Currently,
the Distributor has voluntarily agreed to limit payments under the Plan to .25%
of the average daily net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. Up to .25% of
the fees payable under the Plan may be used as compensation for Shareholder
services by the Distributor and/or financial institutions and intermediaries.
All such fees that may be paid under the Plan will be paid pursuant to Rule
12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Distributor may apply these
fees toward: (i) compensation for its services in connection with distribution
assistance or provision of Shareholder services; or (ii) payments to financial
institutions and intermediaries such as banks (including affiliates of the
Adviser), savings and loan associations, insurance companies, investment
counselors, broker-dealers, and the Distributor's affiliates and subsidiaries,
as compensation for services or reimbursement of expenses incurred in
connection with distribution assistance or provision of Shareholder services.
Class B shares are subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge if such shares
are redeemed prior to the sixth anniversary of purchase. Class B shares of the
Fund are subject to an ongoing distribution and Shareholder service fee as
provided in the Class B
19
<PAGE> 93
distribution and Shareholder services plan (the "Class B Plan") at an annual
rate of 1.00% of the Fund's average daily net assets, which includes
Shareholder servicing fees of .25% of the Fund's average daily net assets.
Proceeds from the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the distribution and
Shareholder service fees under the Class B Plan are payable to the Distributor
and financial intermediaries to defray the expenses of advance brokerage
commissions and expenses related to providing distribution-related and
Shareholder services to the Fund in connection with the sale of Class B shares,
such as the payment of compensation to dealers and agents for selling Class B
shares. The combination of the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the
distribution and Shareholder service fees facilitate the ability of the Fund to
sell the Class B shares without a sales charge being deducted at the time of
purchase.
The Plan and the Class B Plan are characterized as compensation plans since the
distribution fees will be paid to the Distributor without regard to the
distribution or Shareholder service expenses incurred by the Distributor or the
amount of payments made to financial institutions and intermediaries. The Fund
also may execute brokerage or other agency transactions through an affiliate of
the Adviser or through the Distributor for which the affiliate or the
Distributor receives compensation. Pursuant to guidelines adopted by the Board
of Trustees of the Trust, any such compensation will be reasonable and fair
compared to compensation received by other brokers in connection with
comparable transactions.
Fiduciary Class shares of the Fund are offered without distribution fees to
institutional investors, including Authorized Financial Organizations. It is
possible that an institution may offer different classes of shares to its
customers and thus receive different compensation with respect to different
classes of shares. In addition, a financial institution that is the record
owner of shares for the account of its customers may impose separate fees for
account services to its customers.
THE ADMINISTRATOR
The One Group(R) Services Company, (the "Administrator"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the BISYS Group, Inc., and the Trust are parties to an
administration agreement relating to the Fund (the "Administration Agreement").
Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, the Administrator is
responsible for providing the Trust with administrative services (other than
investment advisory services), including regulatory reporting and all necessary
office space, equipment, personnel and facilities.
The Adviser also serves as Sub-Administrator to each fund of the Trust,
pursuant to an agreement between the Administrator and the Adviser. Pursuant to
this agreement, the Adviser performs many of the Administrator's duties, for
which the Adviser receives a fee paid by the Administrator.
The Administrator is entitled to a fee for administrative services, which is
calculated daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of .10% of the Fund's
average daily net assets on the first $500,000,000 in Fund assets, .075% of the
Fund's average daily net assets between $500,000,000 and $1 billion, and .05%
of the Fund's average daily net assets when Fund assets exceed $1 billion.
THE TRANSFER AGENT AND CUSTODIAN
State Street Bank and Trust Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500 acts
as Transfer Agent and Custodian for the Trust, for which services it receives a
fee. The Custodian holds cash, securities and other assets of the Trust as
required by the Investment Company Act of 1940. Bank One Trust Company, N.A.
serves as Sub-Custodian in connection with the Trust's securities lending
activities, pursuant to an agreement between State Street Bank and Trust
Company. Bank One Trust Company receives a fee paid by the Trust.
COUNSEL AND INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
Ropes & Gray serves as counsel to the Trust. Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P. serves
as the independent accountants of the Trust.
OTHER INFORMATION
THE TRUST
The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts Business Trust under a Declaration
of Trust filed on May 23, 1985. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trust to
offer separate funds and different classes of each fund. All consideration
received by the Trust for shares of any fund and all assets of such fund belong
to that fund and would be subject to liabilities related thereto.
The Trust pays its expenses, including fees of its service providers, audit and
legal expenses, expenses of preparing prospectuses, proxy solicitation material
and reports to Shareholders, costs of custodial services and registering the
shares under Federal and state
20
<PAGE> 94
securities laws, pricing, insurance expenses, litigation and other
extraordinary expenses, brokerage costs, interest charges, taxes and
organizational expenses.
The Adviser and the Administrator of the Fund each bears all expenses incurred
in connection with the performance of their services as investment adviser and
administrator, respectively, other than the cost of securities (including
brokerage commissions, if any) purchased for the Fund.
As a general matter, as set forth in the Multiple Class Plan, expenses are
allocated to each class of shares of the Fund on the basis of the net asset
value of that class in relation to the net asset value of the Fund. At present,
the only expenses that are allocated to Class A and Class B shares, other than
in accordance with the relative net asset value of the class, are the
distribution and Shareholder services costs. See "Expense Summary." At present,
no expenses are allocated to Fiduciary Class shares as a class that are not
also borne by the other classes of shares of the Fund in proportion to the
relative net asset value of the shares of such classes.
The organizational expenses of the Fund have been capitalized and are being
amortized in the first five years of the Fund's operations. Such amortization
will reduce the amount of income available for payment as dividends.
TRUSTEES OF THE TRUST
The management and affairs of the Trust are supervised by the Trustees under
the laws governing business trusts in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The
Trustees have approved contracts under which, as described above, certain
companies provide essential management services to the Trust.
VOTING RIGHTS
As set forth in the Multiple Class Plan, each share held entitles the
Shareholder of record to one vote. Each fund of the Trust will vote separately
on matters relating solely to that fund. In addition, each class of a fund
shall have exclusive voting rights on any matter submitted to Shareholders that
relates solely to that class, and shall have separate voting rights on any
matter submitted to Shareholders in which the interests of one class differ
from the interests of any other class. However, all fund Shareholders will have
equal voting rights on matters that affect all fund Shareholders equally. As a
Massachusetts Business Trust, the Trust is not required to hold annual meetings
of Shareholders but approval will be sought for certain changes in the
operation of the Trust and for the election of Trustees under certain
circumstances. In addition, a Trustee may be elected or removed by the
remaining Trustees or by Shareholders at a special meeting called upon written
request of Shareholders owning at least 10% of the outstanding shares of the
Trust. In the event that such a meeting is requested, the Trust will provide
appropriate assistance and information to the Shareholders requesting the
meeting.
DIVIDENDS
Net investment income (exclusive of capital gains) is declared daily, and is
determined and distributed in the form of monthly dividends to Shareholders of
Record on the first Business Day of each month. Capital gains of the Fund, if
any, will be distributed at least annually.
To maintain a relatively even rate of distributions from the Fund rather than
having substantial fluctuations from period to period, the monthly
distributions level from the Fund may be fixed from time to time at rates
consistent with the Adviser's long-term earnings expectations.
Shareholders automatically receive all income dividends and capital gain
distributions in additional Class A, Class B or Fiduciary Class shares, as
applicable, at the net asset value next determined following the record date,
unless the Shareholder has elected to take such payment in cash. Such election,
or any revocation thereof, must be made in writing, at least 15 days prior to
distribution, to the Transfer Agent at P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500,
and will become effective with respect to dividends and distributions having
record dates after its receipt by the Transfer Agent. Reinvested dividends and
distributions receive the same tax treatment as dividends and distributions
paid in cash.
Class B shares received as dividends and capital gains distributions at the net
asset value next determined following the record date shall be held in a
separate Class B sub-account. Each time any Class B shares (other than those in
the sub-account) convert to Class A shares, a pro rata portion of the Class B
shares in the sub-account will also convert to Class A shares. See "Conversion
Feature."
Dividends and distributions of the Fund are paid on a per-share basis. The
value of each share will be reduced by the amount of the payment. If shares are
purchased shortly before the record date for a dividend or the distribution of
capital gains, a Shareholder will pay the full price for the shares and receive
some portion of the price back as a taxable dividend or distribution even
though such distribution would, in effect, represent a return of the
Shareholder's investment.
21
<PAGE> 95
The amount of dividends payable on Fiduciary Class shares will be more than the
dividends payable on Class A and Class B shares because of the distribution
expenses charged to Class A and Class B shares.
SHAREHOLDER INQUIRIES
Shareholder inquiries should be directed to the Administrator, The One Group(R)
Services Company, 3435 Stelzer Road, Columbus, OH 43219.
REPORTING
The Trust issues unaudited financial information semiannually and audited
financial statements annually. The Trust furnishes proxy statements and other
reports to Shareholders of record.
OTHER INVESTMENT POLICIES
PORTFOLIO TURNOVER
Portfolio turnover may vary greatly from year to year as well as within a
particular year. It is presently estimated that the annual portfolio turnover
rate for the Fund will not exceed 180%. Higher portfolio turnover rates will
likely result in higher transaction costs to the Fund and may result in
additional tax consequences to the Fund's Shareholders.
INVESTMENT LIMITATIONS
The investment objective and the following investment limitations are
fundamental policies of the Fund. Fundamental policies cannot be changed
without the consent of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding
shares. The term "majority of the outstanding shares" means the vote of (i) 67%
or more of the Fund's shares present at a meeting, if more than 50% of the
outstanding shares of the Fund are present or represented by proxy, or (ii)
more than 50% of the Fund's outstanding shares, whichever is less.
The Fund may not:
1. Purchase securities of any issuer (except securities issued or guaranteed by
the United States, its agencies or instrumentalities, and securities issued by
regulated investment companies, and if consistent with the Fund's investment
objective and policies, repurchase agreements involving such securities) if as
a result more than 25% of the total assets of the Fund would be invested in the
securities of such issuer. This restriction applies to 50% of the Fund's total
assets. With respect to the remaining 50% of its total assets, the Fund may not
purchase the securities of any issuer if as a result more than 5% of the total
assets of the Fund would be invested in the securities of such issuer. For
purposes of this limitation, a security is considered to be issued by the
government entity whose assets and revenues guarantee or back the security.
With respect to private activity bonds or industrial development bonds backed
only by the assets and revenues of a non-governmental user, such user would
be considered the issuer.
2. Purchase any securities that would cause more than 25% of the total assets of
the Fund to be invested in the securities of one or more issuers conducting
their principal business activities in the same industry, except for investments
in funds of the One Group(R), provided that this limitation does not apply
to investments in obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its
agencies and instrumentalities and repurchase agreements involving such
securities. For purposes of this limitation (i) utilities will be divided
according to their services (for example, gas, gas transmission, electric and
telephone will each be considered a separate industry); and (ii) wholly-owned
finance companies will be considered to be in the industries of their parents if
their activities are primarily related to financing the activities of their
parents.
3. Make loans, except that the Fund may (i) purchase or hold debt instruments
in accordance with its investment objective and policies; (ii) enter into
repurchase agreements; and (iii) engage in securities lending as described in
this Prospectus and in the Statement of Additional Information.
The foregoing percentages will apply at the time of the purchase of a security.
As described above in "Investment Policies of the Fund - Permissible
Investments," the Fund may also invest directly in certain of the following
instruments for temporary defensive purposes. Additional investment limitations
are set forth in the Statement of Additional Information. For the investment
limitations of the Underlying Funds, see the applicable prospectuses.

DESCRIPTION OF PERMITTED INVESTMENTS
The following is a description of certain of the permitted investments for the
Underlying Funds. As described above in "Investment Policies of the Fund -
Permissible Investments," the Fund may also invest directly in certain of the
following instruments for temporary defensive purposes. For a more detailed
description, see the Statement of Additional Information or the prospectuses of
the Underlying Funds.
U.S. TREASURY OBLIGATIONS -- The funds may invest in bills, notes and bonds
issued by the U.S. Treasury and separately traded interest and principal
component parts of such obligations that are transferable through the Federal
book-entry system known as Separately Traded Registered Interest and Principal
Securities ("STRIPS") and Coupon Under Book Entry Safekeeping ("CUBES").
RECEIPTS -- The funds may purchase interests in separately traded interest and
principal component parts of U.S. Treasury obligations that are issued by banks
or brokerage firms and are created by depositing U.S. Treasury notes and U.S.
Treasury bonds into a special account at a custodian bank. Receipts include
Treasury Receipts ("TRS"), Treasury Investment Growth Receipts ("TIGRS"), and
Certificates of Accrual on Treasury Securities ("CATS").
CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT -- Certificates of deposit ("CDs") are negotiable
interest bearing instruments with a specific maturity. CDs are issued by banks
and savings and loan institutions in exchange for the deposit of funds and
normally can be traded in the secondary market prior to maturity.
TIME DEPOSITS -- Time deposits are non-negotiable receipts issued by a bank in
exchange for the deposit of funds. Like a certificate of deposit, a time
deposit ("TD") earns a specified rate of interest over a definite period of
time; however, it cannot be traded in the secondary market.
BANKERS' ACCEPTANCES -- Bankers' acceptances are bills of exchange or time
drafts drawn on and accepted by (i.e., made an obligation of) a commercial
bank. Maturities are generally six months or less.
COMMERCIAL PAPER -- Commercial paper is the term used to designate unsecured
short-term promissory notes issued by corporations and other entities.
Maturities on these issues vary from a few days to nine months.
U.S. GOVERNMENT AGENCIES -- Certain Federal agencies have been established as
instrumentalities of the U.S. government to supervise and finance specific
types of activities. Select agencies, such as the Government National Mortgage
Association ("Ginnie Mae") and the Export-Import Bank, are supported by the
full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury; others, such as the Federal
National Mortgage Association ("Fannie Mae"), are supported by the credit of
the instrumentality and have the right to borrow from the U.S. Treasury; others
are supported by the authority of the U.S. government to purchase the agency's
obligations; while still others, such as the Federal Farm Credit Banks and the
Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac"), are supported solely by
the credit of the instrumentality itself. No assurance can be given that the
U.S. government would provide financial support to U.S. government sponsored
agencies or instrumentalities if it is not obligated to do so by law.
Obligations of U.S. government agencies include debt issues and mortgage-backed
securities issued or guaranteed by select agencies.
CORPORATE SECURITIES -- Corporate securities include corporate bonds,
convertible and non-convertible debt securities, and preferred stocks, as well
as commercial paper (short-term promissory notes issued by corporations).
Issuers of corporate bonds and notes are divided into many different categories
by bond market sector, such as electric utilities, gas utilities, telephone
utilities, consumer finance companies, wholesale finance companies and
industrial companies. Within each major category of issuer, there are many
subcategories.
WARRANTS -- Warrants are securities, typically issued with preferred stock or
bonds, that give the holder the right to buy a proportionate amount of common
stock at a specified price, usually at a price that is higher than the market
price at the time of issuance of the warrant. The right may last for a period
of years or indefinitely.
COMMON STOCK -- Common stock represents a share of ownership in a company and
usually carries voting rights and earns dividends. Unlike preferred stock,
dividends on common stock are not fixed but are declared at the discretion of
the issuer's board of directors.
INVESTMENT COMPANY SECURITIES -- The funds may invest up to 5% of their total
assets in the securities of any one investment company, but may not own more
than 3% of the securities of any one investment company or invest more than 10%
of their assets in the securities of other investment companies.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- Repurchase agreements are agreements by which a person
obtains a security and simultaneously commits to return the security to the
seller at an agreed upon price (including principal and interest) on an agreed
upon date within a number of days from the date of purchase. The custodian or
its agent will hold the security as collateral for the repurchase
23
<PAGE> 97
agreement. Collateral must be maintained at a value at least equal to 100% of
the repurchase price. The funds bear a risk of loss in the event the other
party defaults on its obligations and the funds are delayed or prevented from
their right to dispose of the collateral securities or if the funds realize a
loss on the sale of the collateral securities.
REVERSE REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS - The funds may borrow funds for temporary
purposes by entering into reverse repurchase agreements. Pursuant to such
agreements, the funds would sell portfolio securities to financial institutions
such as banks and broker-dealers, and agree to repurchase them at a mutually
agreed-upon date and price. The funds will enter into reverse repurchase
agreements only to avoid otherwise selling securities during unfavorable market
conditions to meet redemptions. At the time the funds enter into a reverse
repurchase agreement, they would place liquid high grade debt securities having
a value equal to the repurchase price (including accrued interest), in a
segregated custodial account and would subsequently monitor the account to
ensure that such equivalent value is maintained. Reverse repurchase agreements
involve the risk that the market value of the securities sold by the funds may
decline below the price at which the funds are obligated to repurchase the
securities.
DEMAND FEATURES - The funds may acquire securities that are subject to puts and
standby commitments ("demand features") to purchase the securities at their
principal amount at a fixed price (usually with accrued interest) within a
fixed period (usually seven days) following a demand by the funds. The purpose
of engaging in transactions involving puts is to maintain flexibility and
liquidity to permit the funds to meet redemption requests and remain as fully
invested as possible.
ASSET-BACKED SECURITIES - Asset-backed securities consist of securities secured
by company receivables, home equity loans, truck and auto loans, leases, credit
card receivables and other securities backed by other types of receivables or
other assets. These securities are generally pass-through securities, which
means that principal and interest payments on the underlying securities (less
servicing fees) are passed through to shareholders on a pro rata basis. These
securities involve prepayment risk, which is the risk that the underlying debt
will be refinanced or paid off prior to their maturities during periods of
declining interest rates. In that case, a portfolio manager may have to
reinvest the proceeds from the securities at a lower rate. Potential market
gains on a security subject to prepayment risk may be more limited than
potential market gains on a comparable security that is not subject to
prepayment risk. Under certain interest rate and prepayment rate scenarios, the
funds may fail to recoup fully their investment in asset-backed securities.
Asset-backed securities are commonly considered to be derivatives.
SHORT-TERM FUNDING AGREEMENTS - The funds may, in order to enhance yield, make
limited investments in short-term funding agreements issued by banks and highly
rated insurance companies. Short-term funding agreements issued by insurance
companies are sometimes referred to as Guaranteed Investment Contracts
("GICs"), while those issued by banks are referred to as Bank Investment
Contracts ("BICs"). Pursuant to such agreements, the funds make cash
contributions to a deposit account at a bank or insurance company. The bank or
insurance company then credits to the funds on a monthly basis guaranteed
interest at either a fixed, variable or floating rate. These contracts are
general obligations of the issuing bank or insurance company and are paid from
the general assets of the issuing entity. The funds will purchase short-term
funding agreements only from banks and insurance companies which, at the time
of purchase, are rated "A" or the equivalent by at least one NRSRO and have
assets of $1 billion or more. Generally, there is no active secondary market
in short-term funding agreements.
SECURITIES OF FOREIGN ISSUERS -- The funds may invest in securities of foreign
issuers to achieve income or capital appreciation. The funds also may invest in
commercial paper of foreign issuers and obligations of foreign branches of U.S.
banks, U.S. and London branches of foreign banks, and supranational entities
which are established through the joint participation of several governments
(e.g., the Asian Development Bank and the Inter-American Development Bank).
Securities of foreign issuers may include sponsored and unsponsored American
Depository Receipts ("ADRs"), which are securities typically issued by a U.S.
financial institution that evidence ownership interests in a pool of securities
issued by a foreign issuer. ADRs include American Depository Shares and New
York Shares. There may be less information available on the foreign issuers of
unsponsored ADRs than on the issuers of sponsored ADRs.
MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES--Mortgage-backed securities are debt obligations
secured by real estate loans and pools of loans. The funds may acquire
securities representing an interest in a pool of mortgage loans that are issued
or guaranteed by Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Mortgage-backed
securities may also be issued by non-governmental entities and may or may not
have private insurer guarantees of timely payments. The funds also may invest
in mortgage-backed securities issued by non-government entities, which consist
of Collateralized Mortgage Obligations ("CMOs") and Real Estate Mortgage
Investment Conduits ("REMICs"). Mortgage-backed securities are in most cases
"pass-through" instruments, through which the holder receives a share of all
interest and principal payments from the mortgages underlying the certificate.
Because the prepayment characteristics of the underlying mortgages vary, it is
not possible to predict accurately the average life or realized yield of a
particular issue of pass-through certificates. During periods of declining
interest rates, prepayment of mortgages underlying mortgage-backed securities
can be expected to accelerate. When the mortgage obligations are prepaid, the
funds may have to reinvest in securities with a lower yield. Moreover,
prepayment of mortgages which underlie securities purchased at a premium could
result in capital losses.
24
<PAGE> 98
STRIPPED MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES--The funds may, to enhance revenues or
hedge against interest rate risk, invest in stripped mortgage-backed securities
("SMBS"), which are derivative multi-class mortgage securities. The funds may
only invest in SMBS issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies
or instrumentalities. SMBS are usually structured with two classes that receive
different proportions of the interest and principal distributions from a pool
of mortgage assets. A common type of SMBS will have one class receiving all of
the interest from the mortgage assets ("IOs"), while the other class will
receive all of the principal ("POs"). If the underlying mortgage assets
experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, the funds may
fail to fully recoup their initial investment in these securities. Although the
market for such securities is increasingly liquid, certain SMBS may not be
readily marketable and will be considered illiquid for purposes of the funds'
limitations on investments in illiquid securities. The market value of the
class consisting entirely of principal payments generally is unusually volatile
in response to changes in interest rates.
MORTGAGE DOLLAR ROLLS--The funds may enter into mortgage "dollar rolls" in
which the funds sell securities for delivery in the current month and
simultaneously contract with the same counterparty to repurchase similar (same
type, coupon and maturity) but not identical securities on a specified future
date. The funds benefit to the extent of any difference between the price
received for the securities sold and the lower forward price for the future
purchase (often referred to as the "drop") or fee income plus the interest
earned on the cash proceeds of the securities sold until the settlement date of
the forward purchase. Unless such benefits exceed the income, capital
appreciation and gain or loss due to mortgage prepayments that would have been
realized on the securities sold as part of the mortgage dollar roll, the use of
this technique will diminish the investment performance of the funds compared
with what such performance would have been without the use of mortgage dollar
rolls.
FIXED RATE MORTGAGE LOANS--Generally, fixed rate mortgage loans eligible for
inclusion in a mortgage pool will bear simple interest at fixed annual rates
and have original terms to maturity ranging from 5 to 40 years. The funds may
invest in fixed rate mortgage loans that are privately issued and are not
issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government.
SECURITIES LENDING -- In order to generate additional income, the funds may
lend up to 33% of the securities in which they are invested pursuant to
agreements requiring that the loan be continuously secured by cash, securities
of the U.S. government or its agencies, shares of an investment trust or
mutual fund or any combination of cash and such securities as collateral equal
at all times to at least 100% of the market value plus accrued interest on the
securities lent. The funds will continue to receive interest on the securities
lent while simultaneously seeking to earn interest on the investment of cash
collateral in U.S. government securities, shares of an investment trust or
mutual fund, or other short-term, highly liquid investments. Collateral is
marked to market daily to provide a level of collateral at least equal to the
market value of the securities lent. There may be risks of delay in recovery of
the securities or even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of
the securities fail financially. However, loans will only be made to borrowers
deemed by the Adviser to be of good standing under guidelines established by
the Trust's Board of Trustees and when, in the judgment of the Adviser, the
consideration which can be earned currently from such securities loans
justifies the attendant risk. The funds will enter into loan arrangements only
with counterparties which the Adviser has deemed to be creditworthy under
guidelines established by the Board of Trustees. Loans are subject to
termination by the funds or the borrower at any time, and are therefore, not
considered to be illiquid investments.
RESTRICTED SECURITIES -- The funds may invest in commercial paper issued in
reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933. Section 4(2) commercial paper is restricted as to
disposition under Federal securities law and is generally sold to institutional
investors, such as the funds, who agree that they are purchasing the paper for
investment purposes and not with a view to public distribution.
VARIABLE AND FLOATING RATE INSTRUMENTS -- Certain of the obligations purchased
by the funds may carry variable or floating rates of interest, may involve a
conditional or unconditional demand feature and may include variable amount
master demand notes. The interest rates on these securities may be reset daily,
weekly, quarterly or some other reset period, and may have a floor or ceiling
on interest rate changes. There is a risk that the current interest rate on
such obligations may not accurately reflect existing market interest rates.
SECURITIES PURCHASED ON A WHEN-ISSUED BASIS AND FORWARD COMMITMENTS -- The
funds may purchase securities on a when-issued basis when deemed by the Adviser
to present attractive investment opportunities. When-issued securities are
purchased for delivery beyond the normal settlement date at a stated price and
yield, thereby involving the risk that the yield obtained will be less than
that available in the market at delivery. When the Adviser purchases a
when-issued security, the Custodian will set aside cash or liquid securities to
satisfy the purchase commitment. The funds generally will not pay for such
securities or earn interest on them until received. In a forward commitment
transaction, the funds contract to purchase securities for a fixed price at a
future date beyond customary settlement time. The funds are required to hold
and maintain in a segregated account until the settlement date, cash, U.S.
government securities or liquid high-grade debt obligations in an amount
sufficient to meet the purchase price. Alternatively, the funds may enter into
offsetting contracts for the forward sale of other securities that they own.
The purchase of securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis
involves a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines
prior to the settlement date.
25
<PAGE> 99
OPTIONS -- The funds may purchase and write (i.e., sell) call options and put
options on securities and indices, which options are traded on national
securities exchanges. A call option gives the purchaser the right to buy, and
obligates the writer of the option to sell, the underlying security at the
agreed upon exercise (or "strike") price during the option period. A put option
gives the purchaser the right to sell, and obligates the writer to buy, the
underlying security at the strike price during the option period. There are
risks associated with options transactions, including the following: (i) the
success of a hedging strategy may depend on the ability of the Adviser to
predict movements in the prices of the individual securities, fluctuations in
markets and movements in interest rates; (ii) there may be an imperfect or no
correlation between the changes in market value of the securities held by the
funds and the prices of options; (iii) there may not be a liquid secondary
market for options; and (iv) while the funds will receive a premium when they
write covered call options, they may not participate fully in a rise in the
market value of the underlying security. It is expected that the funds will
only engage in option transactions with respect to permitted investments and
related indices.
FUTURES CONTRACTS AND RELATED OPTIONS -- Certain of the funds may enter into
futures contracts, options on futures contracts, index futures and options
thereon that are traded on an exchange regulated by the Commodities Futures
Trading Commission ("CFTC") if, to the extent that such futures and options are
not for "bona fide hedging purposes" (as defined by the CFTC), the aggregate
initial margin and premiums on such positions (excluding the amount by which
options are in the money) do not exceed 5% of the funds' total assets at
current value. Options and futures can be volatile instruments, and involve
certain risks. If the Adviser applies a hedge at an inappropriate time or
judges interest rates incorrectly, options and futures strategies may lower a
fund's return. The funds could also experience losses if the prices of their
options and futures positions were poorly correlated with their other
instruments, or if they could not close out their positions because of an
illiquid secondary market.
SWAPS, CAPS AND FLOORS -- In order to protect the value of the funds from
interest rate fluctuations and to hedge against fluctuations in the floating
rate market in which the funds' investments are traded, the funds may enter
into swaps, caps, and floors on various securities (such as U.S. government
securities), securities indexes, interest rates, prepayment rates, foreign
currencies or other financial instruments or indexes, for both hedging and
non-hedging purposes. Swap contracts typically involve an exchange of
obligations by two sophisticated parties. For example, in an interest rate
swap, a fund may exchange with another party their respective rights to receive
interest, such as an exchange of fixed rate payments for floating rate
payments. Currency swaps involve the exchange of respective rights to make or
receive payments in specified currencies. Mortgage swaps are similar to
interest rate swaps in that they represent commitments to pay and receive
interest. The notional principal amount, however, is tied to a reference pool
or pools of mortgages.
Caps and floors are variations on swaps. The purchase of a cap entitles the
purchaser to receive a principal amount from the party selling the cap to the
extent that a specified index exceeds a predetermined interest rate or amount.
The purchase of an interest rate floor entitles the purchaser to receive
payments on a notional principal amount from the party selling the floor to the
extent that a specified index falls below a predetermined interest rate or
amount. Caps and floors are similar in many respects to over-the-counter
options transactions, and may involve investment risks that are similar to
those associated with options transactions and options on futures contracts.
NEW FINANCIAL PRODUCTS -- New options and futures contracts and other financial
products, and various combinations thereof, continue to be developed and the
funds may invest in any such options, contracts and products as may be
developed to the extent consistent with their investment objective, policies
and restrictions and the regulatory requirements applicable to investment
companies. These various products may be used to adjust the risk and return
characteristics of the funds' portfolio of investments. These various products
may increase or decrease exposure to security prices, interest rates, commodity
prices, or other factors that affect security values, regardless of the
issuer's credit risk. If market conditions do not perform consistent with
expectations, the performance of the funds would be less favorable than it
would have been if these products were not used. In addition, losses may occur
if counterparties involved in transactions do not perform as promised. These
products may expose the funds to potentially greater return as well as
potentially greater risk of loss than more traditional fixed-income
investments.
STRUCTURED INSTRUMENTS - Structured instruments are debt securities issued by
agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government (such as Sallie Mae,
Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac), banks, municipalities, corporations,
and other business entities whose interest and/or principal payments are
indexed to certain specific foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, or
one or more other reference indices. Structured instruments frequently are
assembled in the form of medium-term notes, but a variety of forms are
available. Structured instruments are commonly considered to be derivatives.
While structured instruments may offer the potential for a favorable rate of
return from time to time, they also entail certain risks. Structured
instruments may be less liquid than other debt securities, and the price of
structured instruments may be more volatile. If the value of the reference
index changes in a manner other than that expected by the Adviser, principal
and/or interest payments on the structured instrument may be substantially less
than expected. In addition, although structured instruments may be sold in the
form of a corporate debt obligation, they may not have some of the protection
against counterparty default that may be available with respect to publicly
traded debt securities (i.e., the existence of a trust indenture).
26
<PAGE> 100
MUNICIPAL SECURITIES - Municipal Securities are issued by a state or political
subdivision to obtain funds for various public purposes. Municipal securities
are generally classified as "general obligation" bonds and "revenue" bonds.
General obligation bonds are obligations involving the credit of an issuer
possessing taxing power and are payable from the issuer's general unrestricted
revenues. Revenue bonds are payable only from the revenues derived from a
particular facility or class of facilities or, in some cases, from the proceeds
of a special excise or other specific revenue source. Revenue bonds are not
payable from the issuer's general revenues. The funds also may purchase
short-term tax-exempt General Obligation Notes, Tax Anticipation Notes, Bond
Anticipation Notes, Revenue Anticipation Notes, Project Notes, and other forms
of short-term tax-exempt obligations. Such notes are issued with a short-term
maturity in anticipation of the receipt of tax funds, the proceeds of bond
placements, or other revenues.
An issuer's obligations under its municipal securities are subject to the
provisions of bankruptcy, insolvency, and other laws affecting the rights and
remedies of creditors, such as the federal bankruptcy code, and laws, if any,
which may be enacted by Congress or state legislatures extending the time for
payment of principal or interest, or both, or imposing other constraints upon
the enforcement of such obligations. The power or ability of an issuer to meet
its obligations for the payment of interest on and principal of its municipal
securities may be materially adversely affected by litigation or other
conditions. Such litigation or conditions may from time to time have the effect
of introducing uncertainties in the market for tax-exempt obligations or
certain segments thereof, or may materially affect the credit risk with respect
to particular bonds or notes. Adverse economic, business, legal or political
developments might affect all or a substantial portion of a fund's municipal
securities in the same manner. In addition, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code") imposes certain continuing requirements on issuers of
tax-exempt bonds regarding the use, expenditure and investment of bond proceeds
and the payment of rebates to the United States of America. Failure by the
issuer to comply subsequent to the issuance of tax-exempt bonds with certain of
these requirements could cause interest on the bonds to become includable in
gross income retroactive to the date of issuance.
INVERSE FLOATING RATE INSTRUMENTS -- The funds may seek to increase yield by
investing in leveraged inverse floating rate debt instruments ("inverse
floaters"). The interest rate on an inverse floater resets in the opposite
direction from the market rate of interest to which the inverse floater is
indexed. An inverse floater may be considered to be leveraged to the extent
that its interest rate varies by a magnitude that exceeds the magnitude of the
change in the index rate of interest. The higher degree of leverage inherent in
inverse floaters is associated with greater volatility in their market values.
Accordingly, the duration of an inverse floater may exceed its stated final
maturity.
DESCRIPTION OF RATINGS
The following descriptions are summaries of published ratings.
DESCRIPTION OF COMMERCIAL PAPER RATINGS
The following descriptions of commercial paper ratings have been published by
Standard & Poor's Corporation ("S&P"), Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's"),
Fitch's Investors Service ("Fitch"), Duff and Phelps ("Duff"), and IBCA Limited
("IBCA"), respectively.
Commercial paper rated A by S&P is regarded by S&P as having the greatest
capacity for timely payment. Issues rated A are further refined by use of the
numbers 1+, 1 and 2 to indicate the relative degree of safety. Issues rated
A-1+ are those with an "overwhelming degree" of credit protection. Those rated
A-1 reflect a "very strong" degree of safety regarding timely payment. Those
rated A-2 reflect a high degree of safety regarding timely payment but not as
high as A-1.
Commercial paper issues rated Prime-1 and Prime-2 by Moody's are judged by
Moody's to be of the "highest" quality and "higher" quality, respectively, on
the basis of relative repayment capacity.
The rating Fitch-1 (Highest Grade) is the highest commercial rating assigned by
Fitch. Paper rated Fitch-1 is regarded as having the strongest degree of
assurance for timely payment. The rating Fitch-2 (Very Good Grade) is the
second highest commercial paper rating assigned by Fitch which reflects an
assurance of timely payment only slightly less in degree than the strongest
issues.
The rating Duff-1 is the highest commercial paper rating assigned by Duff.
Paper rated Duff-1 is regarded as having very high certainty of timely payment
with excellent liquidity factors which are supported by ample asset protection.
Risk factors are minor. Paper rated Duff-2 is regarded as having good certainty
of timely payment, good access to capital markets and sound liquidity factors
and company fundamentals. Risk factors are small.
The designation A1 by IBCA indicates that the obligation is supported by a very
strong capacity for timely repayment. Those obligations rated A1+ are supported
by the highest capacity for timely repayment. Obligations rated A2 are
supported by a strong
27
<PAGE> 101
capacity for timely repayment, although such capacity may be susceptible to
adverse changes in business, economic or financial conditions.
DESCRIPTION OF CORPORATE/MUNICIPAL BOND RATINGS
The following descriptions of S&P's and Moody's corporate and municipal bond
ratings have been published by S&P and Moody's, respectively.
Standard & Poor's Rating Services
Investment Grade
- ----------------
Bonds rated AAA have the highest rating S&P assigns to a debt obligation. Such
a rating indicates an extremely strong capacity to pay principal and interest.
Bonds rated AA also qualify as high-quality debt obligations. Capacity to pay
principal and interest is very strong, and in the majority of instances they
differ from AAA issues only in a small degree. Debt rated A has a strong
capacity to pay interest and repay principal although it is somewhat more
susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic
conditions than debt in higher rated categories.
Bonds rated BBB by S&P are regarded as having an adequate capacity to pay
interest and repay principal. Whereas it normally exhibits adequate protection
parameters, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more
likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay interest and repay principal for
debt in this category than in higher categories.
Non-Investment Grade
- --------------------
Bonds rated BB have less near-term vulnerability to default than other
speculative issues. However, they face major ongoing uncertainties or exposure
to adverse business, financial or economic conditions which could lead to
inadequate capacity to meet timely interest and principal payments. The BB
rated category is also used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied BBB rating.
Bonds rated B have a greater vulnerability to default but currently have the
capacity to meet interest payments and principal repayments. Adverse business,
financial or economic conditions will likely impair capacity or willingness to
pay interest and repay principal. The B rating category is also used for debt
subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an actual or implied BB or
BB-rating.
Bonds rated CCC have currently identifiable vulnerability to default, and are
dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions to meet
timely payment of interest and repayment of principal. In the event of adverse
business, financial, or economic conditions, they are not likely to have the
capacity to pay interest and repay principal. The CCC rating category is also
used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an actual or implied
B or B- rating.
The rating CC typically is applied to debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied CCC rating.
The rating C typically is applied to debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied CCC rating. The C rating may be used to cover a
situation where a bankruptcy petition has been filed, but debt service payments
are continued.
The rating C1 is reserved for income bonds on which no interest is being paid.
Bonds rated D are in payment default. The D rating category is used when
interest payments or principal payments are not made on the date due, even if
the applicable grace period has not expired, unless Standard & Poor believes
that such payments will be made during such grace period. The D rating also
will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition if debt service payments
are jeopardized.
Plus (+) or minus (-). Ratings from AA to CCC may be modified by the addition
of a plus or minus sign to show relative standing within the major rating
categories.
Moody's Investor Service, Inc.
Investment Grade
- ----------------
Bonds that are rated Aaa by Moody's are judged to be of the best quality. They
carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally referred to as
"gilt edge." Interest payments are protected by a large, or an exceptionally
stable, margin and principal is
28
<PAGE> 102
secure. While the various protective elements are likely to change, such
changes as can be visualized are most unlikely to impair the fundamentally
strong position of such issues. Bonds rated Aa by Moody's are judged by Moody's
to be of high quality by all standards. Together with bonds rated Aaa, they
comprise what are generally known as high-grade bonds. They are rated lower
than the best bonds because margins of protection may not be as large as in Aaa
securities or fluctuation of protective elements may be of greater amplitude or
there may be other elements present that make the long-term risks appear
somewhat larger than in Aaa securities. Bonds that are rated A possess many
favorable investment attributes and are to be considered as upper-medium grade
obligations. Factors giving security to principal and interest are considered
adequate, but elements may be present which suggest a susceptibility to
impairment sometime in the future.
Bonds that are rated Baa by Moody's are considered as medium-grade obligations
(i.e., they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured). Interest payments
and principal security appear adequate for the present but certain protective
elements may be lacking or may be characteristically unreliable over any great
length of time. Such bonds lack outstanding investment characteristics and in
fact have speculative characteristics as well.
Changes in economic conditions or other circumstances are more likely to lead
to a weakened capacity of the issuers of securities rated BBB or Baa to make
principal and interest payments than is the case with higher grade securities.
Non-Investment Grade
- --------------------
Bonds rated Ba are more uncertain and have speculative elements. The protection
of interest and principal payments is not well safeguarded during good and bad
times. Bonds rated B lack the characteristics of a desirable investment (i.e.,
potentially low assurance of timely interest and principal payments or
maintenance of other contract terms over time).
Bonds rated Caa have poor standing and may be in default. These bonds carry an
element of danger with respect to principal and interest payments. Bonds rated
Ca are speculative to a high degree and could be in default or have other
marked shortcomings. C is the lowest rating. Bonds in this category have
extremely poor prospects of ever attaining investment standing.
Unrated securities will be treated as non-investment grade securities unless
the Adviser determines that such securities are the equivalent of investment
grade securities. Securities that have received different ratings from more
than one agency are considered investment grade if at least one agency has
rated the security investment grade.
DESCRIPTION OF MUNICIPAL NOTE RATINGS
Moody's highest rating for state, municipal and other short-term notes is MIG-1
and VMIG-1. Short-term municipal securities rated MIG-1 or VMIG-1 are of the
best quality. They have strong protection from established cash flows of funds
for their servicing or from established and broad-based access to the market
for refinancing or both. Short-term municipal securities rated MIG-2 and VMIG-2
are of high quality. Margins of protection are ample although not so large as
in the preceding group.
An S&P note rating reflects the liquidity concerns and market access risks
unique to notes. Notes due in three years or less will likely receive a note
rating. Notes maturing beyond three years will most likely receive a long-term
debt rating. The following criteria will be used in making that assessment:
- - Amortization schedule (the larger the final maturity relative to other
maturities the more likely it will be treated as a note).
- - Source of Payment (the more dependent the issue is on the market for its
refinancing, the more likely it will be treated as a note).
Note rating symbols are as follows:
SP-1 Very strong or strong capacity to pay principal and interest. Those issues
determined to possess overwhelming safety characteristics will be given a plus
(+) designation.
SP-2 Satisfactory capacity to pay principal and interest.
MISCELLANEOUS
PERFORMANCE
From time to time, the Funds may advertise yield, total return and/or
distribution rate. These figures will be based on historical earnings and are
not intended to indicate future performance. The yield of the Funds refers to
the annualized income generated by an investment in the Funds over a specified
30-day period. The yield is calculated by assuming that the income generated by
the
29
<PAGE> 103
investment during that period is generated over a one-year period and is shown
as a percentage of the investment.
Total return is the change in value of an investment in the Funds over a given
period, assuming reinvestment of any dividends and capital gains. A cumulative
total return reflects an actual rate of return over a stated period of time. An
average annual total return is a hypothetical rate of return that, if achieved
annually, would have produced the same cumulative total return if performance
had been constant over the entire period. Average annual total returns smooth
out variations in performance; they are not the same as actual year-by-year
results.
The distribution rate is computed by dividing the total amount of the dividends
per share paid out during the past period by the maximum offering price or
month-end net asset value depending on the class of the Funds. This figure is
then "annualized" (multiplied by 365 days and divided by the applicable number
of days in the period). Funds with a front-end sales charge would incorporate
the offering price into the distribution yield in place of month-end net asset
value.
Distribution rate is a measure of the level of income paid out in cash to
Shareholders over a specified period. It differs from yield and total return
and is not intended to be a complete measure of performance. Furthermore, the
distribution rate may include return of principal and/or capital gains. Total
return is the change in value of a hypothetical investment over a given period
assuming reinvestment of dividends and capital gain distributions. The yield
refers to the cumulative 30-day rolling net investment income, divided by
maximum offering price and multiplied by average shares outstanding during this
period. See the Statement of Additional Information.
The Trust will include information on all classes of shares of the Funds in any
advertisement or information including performance data for the Fund. The
performance for Fiduciary Class shares may be higher than for Class A shares
and Class B shares because Fiduciary Class shares are not subject to sales
charges and distribution expenses.
The performance of each class of the Fund may from time to time be compared to
that of other mutual funds tracked by mutual fund rating services, to that of
broad groups of comparable mutual funds or to that of unmanaged indices that
may assume investment of dividends but do not reflect deductions for
administrative and management costs. In addition, the performance of each class
of the Fund may be compared to other funds or to relevant indices that may
calculate total return without reflecting sales charges; in which case, the
Fund may advertise its total return in the same manner. If reflected, sales
charges would reduce these total return calculations.
TAXES
The following summary of Federal income tax consequences is based on current
tax laws and regulations, which may be changed by legislative, judicial or
administrative action. No attempt has been made to present a complete
explanation of the Federal, state, local or foreign tax treatment of the Fund
or its Shareholders. Accordingly, Shareholders are urged to consult their tax
advisers regarding specific questions as to the tax consequences of investing
in the Fund.
TAX STATUS OF THE FUND
The Fund is treated as a separate entity for Federal income tax purposes and is
not combined with the Trust's other funds. The Fund intends to qualify as a
"regulated investment company" for Federal income tax purposes and to meet all
other requirements that are necessary for it to be relieved of Federal taxes on
that part of its net investment income and net capital gains (the excess of net
long-term capital gain over net short-term capital loss) that is distributed to
Shareholders.
TAX STATUS OF DISTRIBUTIONS
The Fund will distribute substantially all of its net investment income
(including, for this purpose, net short-term capital gain) to Shareholders of
each class of shares of the Fund on at least an annual basis. Generally,
dividends from net investment income will be taxable to Shareholders as
ordinary income whether received in cash or in additional shares, and any net
capital gains will be distributed at least annually and will be taxed to
Shareholders as long-term capital gains, regardless of how long the Shareholder
has held shares.
Distributions by the Fund to retirement plans that qualify for tax-exempt
treatment under the Code ("qualified retirement plans") will not be taxable.
The Federal tax treatment of qualified retirement plans, as well as
distributions from such plans, is governed by specific provisions of the Code.
If shares are held by a retirement plan that ceases to qualify for tax-exempt
treatment under the Code or by an individual who has received such shares as a
distribution from a retirement plan, the Fund's distributions will be taxable
to such plan or individual as described in the preceding paragraph. Persons
considering directing the investment of their qualified retirement plan account
in the Fund and qualified retirement plan trusts considering purchasing such
shares, should consult their tax
30
<PAGE> 104
advisers for a more complete explanation of the Federal tax consequences, and
for an explanation of the state, local and (if applicable) foreign tax
consequences of making such an investment.
The Fund will make annual reports to Shareholders of the Federal income tax
status of all distributions.
Certain securities purchased by the Fund (such as STRIPS, CUBES, TRS, TIGRS and
CATS), as defined in the "Description of Permitted Investments," are sold at
original issue discount and thus do not make periodic cash interest payments.
The Fund will be required to include as part of its current income the imputed
interest on such obligations even though the Fund has not received any interest
payments on such obligations during that period. Because the Fund distributes
substantially all of its net investment income to its Shareholders (including
such imputed interest), the Fund may have to sell portfolio securities in order
to generate the cash necessary for the required distributions. Such sales may
occur at a time when the Adviser would not have chosen to sell such securities
and may result in a taxable gain or loss.
Dividends declared by the Fund in October, November or December of any year and
payable to Shareholders of record on a date in such a month will be deemed to
have been paid by the Fund and received by Shareholders on December 31 of that
year, if paid by the Fund at any time during the following January.
The Fund intends to make sufficient distributions prior to the end of each
calendar year to avoid liability for Federal excise tax.
Dividends received by a Shareholder that are derived from the Fund's
investments in U.S. government obligations may not be entitled to the
exemptions from state and local income taxes that would be available if the
Shareholder had purchased U.S. government obligations directly. The Fund will
inform Shareholders annually of the percentage of income and distributions
derived from U.S. government obligations. Shareholders should consult their tax
advisers regarding the state and local tax treatment of the dividends received
from the Fund.
The Fund may be subject to foreign withholding taxes on income derived from
obligations of foreign issuers. The Fund will not be able to elect to treat
Shareholders as having paid their proportionate share of such foreign taxes.
Sale, exchange or redemption of Fund shares by a Shareholder will generally be
a taxable event to such Shareholder.

(1) A person who purchases shares through an account with a financial
institution or broker/dealer may be charged separate transaction fees by
the financial institution or broker/dealer. In addition, a wire redemption
charge, currently $7.00, is deducted from the amount of a wire redemption
payment made at the request of a Shareholder.
(2) A person who purchases $1 million or more of Class A shares and is not
assessed a sales charge at the time of purchase, will be assessed a sales
charge equivalent to 1% of the purchase price if the purchaser redeems any
or all Class A shares prior to the first anniversary of purchase.
(3) Absent the voluntary waiver of fees under the Trust's Distribution and
Shareholder Services Plan, 12b-1 fees (as a percentage of average daily
net assets) would be .35% for Class A. The 12b-1 fees include a
Shareholder servicing fee of .25% of average daily net assets of the
Fund's Class B shares and may include a Shareholder servicing fee of .25%
of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Class A shares. See "The
Distributor".
(4) Absent the voluntary 12b-1 fee waiver, Total Operating Expenses for
Class A shares would be .72%.
The Fund will indirectly bear its pro rata share of fees and expenses incurred
by the Underlying Funds, and the investment returns of the Fund will be net of
the expenses of the Underlying Funds. The following chart provides the expense
ratio for each of the Underlying Funds in which the Fund invests (based on the
current Underlying Fund prospectus). Certain of these expense ratios may
include a voluntary reduction of investment advisory fees.

After combining the total operating expenses of the Fund with those of the
Underlying Funds, the estimated average weighted expense ratio for Class A
shares is 1.46%, for Class B shares is 2.21% and for Fiduciary shares Class is
1.21%.
On the basis of these estimated expenses, the following example illustrates the
expenses an investor would pay on a $1,000 investment in Class A and Fiduciary
Class shares of the Fund, assuming: (1) imposition of the maximum sales charge
for Class A shares; (2) 5% annual return; and (3) redemption at the end of each

Therefore, the "10 Years" examples above reflect the effect of such conversion.
THESE EXAMPLES SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED A REPRESENTATION OF PAST OR FUTURE
EXPENSES AND ACTUAL EXPENSES MAY BE GREATER OR LESS THAN THOSE SHOWN. The
purpose of these tables is to assist the investor in understanding the various
costs and expenses that may be directly or indirectly borne by investors in the
Trust.
THE FUND
The One Group(R) Investor Growth & Income Fund ( the "Fund") is part of The One
Group(R) (the "Trust"), which is an open-end management investment company that
offers shares in 39 separate funds and different classes of certain of the
funds. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts Business Trust on May 23,
1985. This Prospectus relates to Class A, Class B, and Fiduciary Class shares
of The One Group(R) Investor Growth & Income Fund. Each class of shares
provides for variations in distribution costs, voting rights, dividends and per
share net asset value pursuant to a multiple class plan (the "Multiple Class
Plan") adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Trust. Except for these
differences between classes, each share of the Fund represents an undivided,
proportionate interest in the Fund. The Fund is a non-diversified mutual fund
because it invests in the securities of a limited number of Underlying Funds.
However, the Underlying Funds are diversified investment companies. The
Information regarding the Trust's other funds and their classes is contained in
separate prospectuses which may be obtained from the Trust's Distributor, The
One Group(R) Services Company, 3435 Stelzer Road, Columbus, OH 43219, or by
calling 1-800-480-4111.

The One Group(R) International Equity Index Fund
The One Group(R) International Equity Index Fund is an equity fund. The
objective of the fund is to provide investment results that correspond to the
aggregate price and dividend performance of the securities in the Gross
Domestic Product Weighted Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe,
Australia and Far East Index ("MSCI EAFE GDP Index" or "EAFE GDP Index").(1)
Under normal conditions, the fund will invest substantially all of its assets
in foreign securities and at least 65% of the value of its total assets in
foreign equity securities, consisting of common stocks (including sponsored and
unsponsored American Depository Receipts ("ADRs")) and preferred stocks,
securities convertible into common stocks (only if they are listed on
registered exchanges or actively traded in the over-the-counter market),
warrants and depository receipts for such securities of issuers located in at
least three different countries. In attempting to duplicate the capital
performance and dividend income of the MSCI EAFE GDP Index, the fund will
normally invest in the stocks which comprise the Index and secondarily in stock
index futures. It is expected that cash reserve items normally will not exceed
10% of the fund's net assets. The fund may invest up to 10% of its net assets
in securities of emerging international markets such as Mexico, Brazil and
Chile. A substantial portion of the fund's assets will be denominated in
foreign currencies.
The One Group(R) Large Company Growth Fund
The One Group(R) Large Company Growth Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation
and growth of income by investing primarily in equity securities. To achieve
its objective, the fund will, under normal market conditions, invest
substantially all, but in no event less than 65%, of the value of its total
assets in equity securities consisting of common stocks, warrants and any
rights to purchase common stocks. The weighted average capitalization of the
companies in which the fund invests will under normal market conditions always
be in excess of the market median capitalization of the Standard & Poor's 500
Composite Stock Price Index ("S&P 500 Index").(2) The fund may invest the
remainder of its assets in any combination of nonconvertible fixed income
securities, repurchase agreements, options and futures contracts.
The One Group(R) Large Company Value Fund
The One Group(R) Large Company Value Fund is an equity fund that seeks capital
appreciation with the incidental goal of achieving current income by investing
primarily in equity securities. The fund will invest in equity securities of
companies that are believed to be selling below their long-term intrinsic
investment values. Companies held will typically be large capitalization
issuers with current price/earnings and/or price/book ratios which are lower
than that of the general market as measured by the S&P 500 Index. In addition,
the fund may invest in stock of companies which have been analyzed to have
breakup values well in excess of current market values or which have uniquely
undervalued corporate assets. The general approach to purchasing stocks will
emphasize individual security selection. Macroeconomic data and industry profit
forecasts will be utilized to gauge the best sectors of the economy in which to
be positioned.
Under normal market conditions, the fund will invest at least 80% of the value
of its total assets in equity securities consisting of common stocks and debt
securities and preferred stocks which are convertible into common stocks. The
fund also may enter into options and futures transactions. The remainder of the
fund's assets will be held in cash equivalents
The One Group(R) Growth Opportunities Fund
The One Group(R) Growth Opportunities Fund seeks growth of capital and,
secondarily, current income by investing primarily in equity securities. The
fund will invest in issues which are identified and selected based on the
potential to produce above-average earnings growth per share over a
one-to-three year period. It is expected that issuers will generally include
established companies with a history of above-average growth or companies that
are expected to enter periods of above-average growth, and smaller companies
which are positioned in emerging growth industries. The fund may invest in
securities listed on a stock exchange as well as those traded over-the-counter.
At least 80% of the value of the fund's total assets will, under normal
conditions, be invested in equity securities consisting of common stocks and
debt securities and preferred stocks that are convertible into common stocks.
The fund also may enter into options and futures transactions. The remainder of
the fund's assets will be held in cash equivalents.

The One Group(R) Value Growth Fund
The One Group(R) Value Growth Fund seeks long-term capital growth and growth of
income while, as a secondary objective providing a moderate level of current
income. The fund pursues its objectives by investing primarily in a portfolio
of common stocks, debt securities, preferred stocks, convertible securities,
warrants, and other equity securities of companies that show the potential for
growth of earnings over time. Stock selection is guided by current valuation
relative to a stock's historical valuation and relative to the Adviser's
estimates of future growth of earnings and dividends. Accordingly, the Fund may
emphasize securities of companies that the Adviser believes are overlooked or
undervalued by investors, which fact should contribute to an increase in the
market value of the security over time.
The fund will ordinarily invest at least 65% of the value of its total assets
in securities with the characteristics described above. Although the fund
intends to invest all of its assets in such securities, up to 35% of its total
assets may be held in cash or invested in U.S. Government Securities, other
investment grade fixed-income securities and cash equivalents.
The One Group(R) Gulf South Growth Fund
The One Group(R) Gulf South Growth Fund seeks long-term capital growth by
investing in a portfolio of equity securities of small-capitalization ,
emerging growth and medium capitalization companies, which are either
headquartered in or whose primary market is in the southeastern region of the
United States. The fund invests primarily in a portfolio of common stocks, debt
securities, preferred stocks, convertible securities, warrants and other equity
securities of such companies. The Adviser anticipates that the fund's portfolio
will normally consist of securities of approximately twenty-five to sixty
emerging growth companies from Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina,
Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana,
Kentucky and Texas. It is expected that companies selected would generally have
market capitalizations ranging from $50,000,000 to $2,000,000,000, although the
fund may occasionally hold securities of companies whose market capitalizations
are considerably larger if doing so contributes to the fund's investment
objective.
The fund will normally invest at least 65% of the value of its total assets in
securities with the characteristics described above. Although the fund intends
to invest all of its assets in such securities, up to 35% of its total assets
may be held in cash or invested in U.S. Government Securities, other investment
grade fixed-income securities and cash equivalents, when the Adviser's
assessment of the attractiveness of the entire stock market and individual
market sectors changes.
Because the fund is non-diversified, its share price may be subject to greater
fluctuations as a result of changes in an issuer's financial condition or the
market's assessment of an individual issuer. In addition, smaller, less
seasoned companies may be subject to greater business risk than larger,
established companies.
The One Group(R) Income Equity Fund
The One Group(R) Income Equity Fund seeks current income through regular
payment of dividends with the secondary goal of achieving capital appreciation
by investing primarily in equity securities. The fund will make investments in
an attempt to keep its yield above the S&P 500 Index. Achieving such a yield
will be the primary consideration in selecting securities. Investments will be
made in common stocks of corporations which regularly pay dividends, although
continued payment of dividends cannot be assured. The fund will invest
primarily in stocks with favorable, long-term fundamental characteristics, but
stocks of companies that are out of favor in the financial community may also
be purchased.
The fund will under normal conditions invest at least 80% of the value of its
total assets in equity securities consisting of common stocks, and debt
securities and preferred stocks which are convertible into common stocks. The
fund also may enter into options and futures transactions. The balance of the
fund's assets will be held in cash equivalents.
The One Group(R) Equity Index Fund
The One Group(R) Equity Index Fund seeks investment results that correspond to
the aggregate price and dividend performance of the securities on the S&P 500
Index. The fund will, in attempting to duplicate the capital performance and
dividend income of the S&P 500 Index, normally invest in many of the stocks
which comprise the S&P 500 Index and secondarily in stock index futures. Cash
reserves will not normally exceed 10% of the fund's net assets.
The Adviser generally selects stocks for the fund in the order of their
weightings in the S&P 500 Index beginning with the heaviest weighted stocks.
The percentage of the fund's assets to be invested in each stock is
approximately the same as the percentage it represents in the S&P 500 Index.
From time to time, administrative adjustments may be made in the fund because
of changes in the composition of the S&P 500 Index, but such changes should be
infrequent. The fund will attempt to achieve a correlation between the
performance of its portfolio and that of the S&P 500 Index of at least 0.95,
without taking into account expenses. A correlation
8
<PAGE> 117
of 1.00 would indicate perfect correlation, which would be achieved when the
fund's net asset value, including the value of its dividend and capital gains
distributions, increases or decreases in exact proportion to changes in the S&P
500 Index.
The One Group(R) Prime Money Market Fund
The One Group(R) Prime Money Market Fund seeks current income with liquidity
and stability of principal. The fund intends to comply with the regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to money market funds using
the amortized cost method for calculating net asset value. These regulations
impose certain quality, maturity and diversification restraints on investments
by the fund. Under these regulations, the fund will invest only in U.S.
dollar-denominated securities, will maintain an average maturity on a
dollar-weighted basis of 90 days or less, and will acquire only "eligible
securities" that present minimal credit risks and have a maturity of 397 days
or less.
The One Group(R) Disciplined Value Fund
The One Group(R) Disciplined Value Fund seeks capital appreciation with the
secondary goal of achieving current income by investing primarily in equity
securities. The fund will invest in equity securities with below-market average
price-to-earnings and price-to-book value ratios. The issuer's soundness and
earnings prospects will also be considered. Although capital appreciation is
the primary purpose for investing in the security, all common stocks must be
paying a current dividend to shareholders to be eligible for purchase. While
the Adviser may sell fund securities in its discretion at any time, it is
unlikely to move toward elimination of the fund's holdings of a stock when the
Adviser determines that there is a fundamental change that impairs a company's
ability to pay dividends, or if the company's 12-month earnings per share
comparison is declining.
The fund will, under normal conditions, invest at least 80% of the value of its
total assets in equity securities consisting of common stocks and debt
securities and preferred stocks that are convertible into common stocks. The
fund also may enter into options and futures transactions. The balance of the
fund's assets will be held in cash equivalents.
The One Group(R) Limited Volatility Bond Fund
The One Group(R) Limited Volatility Bond Fund seeks current income consistent
with preservation of capital through investment in high and medium-grade
fixed-income securities. The fund will normally invest at least 80% of total
assets in debt securities of all types with short to intermediate maturities.
Under normal market conditions, it is anticipated that the fund's average
weighted maturity will range between one and five years. At least 65% of the
fund's total assets will consist of bonds rated in one of the three highest
rating categories by at least one nationally recognized statistical rating
organization ("NRSRO") at the time of investment, or, if unrated, determined by
the Adviser to be of comparable quality. In addition, at least 65% of total
assets will consist of obligations issued by the U.S. government or its
agencies and instrumentalities, some of which may be subject to repurchase
agreements. The fund may also purchase taxable or tax-exempt municipal
securities. Up to 20% of the fund's total assets may be invested in preferred
stocks.
The One Group(R) Intermediate Bond Fund
The One Group(R) Intermediate Bond Fund seeks current income consistent with
the preservation of capital through investments in high and medium-grade
fixed-income securities with intermediate maturities. The fund will normally
invest at least 80% of total assets in debt securities of all types. Under
normal market conditions, it is anticipated that the fund's average weighted
maturity will range between three and ten years. At least 65% of the fund's
total assets will consist of bonds rated in one of the three highest rating
categories by at least one NRSRO at the time of investment or, if unrated,
determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. However, the Adviser
reserves the right to invest in more speculative debt securities if they
present attractive opportunities and are rated in the fourth highest rating
category by at least one NRSRO at the time of investment or, if unrated,
determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. In addition, at least
50% of total assets will consist of obligations issued by the U.S. government
or its agencies and instrumentalities, some of which may be subject to
repurchase agreements. The fund may also purchase taxable or tax-exempt
municipal securities. Up to 20% of the fund's total assets may be invested in
preferred stocks.
The One Group(R) Income Bond Fund
The One Group(R) Income Bond Fund seeks current income by investing in a
portfolio of high and medium-grade fixed-income securities. The fund will
normally invest at least 80% of total assets in debt securities of all types.
Under normal market conditions, it is anticipated that the fund's average
weighted maturity will range between five and fifteen years. At least 65% of
the fund's total assets will consist of bonds rated in one of the three highest
rating categories by at least one NRSRO at the time of investment or, if
unrated, determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. However, the
Adviser reserves the right to invest in more speculative debt securities if
they present attractive opportunities and are rated in the fourth highest
rating category by at least one
9
<PAGE> 118
NRSRO at the time of investment or, if unrated, determined by the Adviser to be
of comparable quality. The fund may also purchase taxable or tax-exempt
municipal securities. Up to 20% of the fund's total assets may be invested in
preferred stocks.
The One Group(R) Government Bond Fund
The One Group(R) Government Bond Fund seeks a high level of current income with
liquidity and safety of principal. The fund seeks to achieve its objective
principally through investment in securities issued by the U.S. government and
its agencies and instrumentalities. At least 65% of the total assets of the
fund will be invested in obligations guaranteed as to principal and interest by
the U.S. Government or its agencies and instrumentalities, some of which may be
subject to repurchase agreements, and other securities representing an interest
in or collateralized by mortgages that are issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
government, its agencies or instrumentalities. The balance of the fund's assets
may be invested in debt securities and taxable or tax-exempt municipal
securities. The average weighted remaining maturity of the fund is expected to
be between three and fifteen years.
The One Group(R) Ultra Short-Term Income Fund
The One Group(R) Ultra Short-Term Income Fund seeks a high level of current
income consistent with low volatility of principal by investing in a
diversified portfolio of short-term investment grade securities. The fund will
normally invest at least 80% of its total assets in debt securities of all
types, including money market instruments. In addition, up to 20% of the fund's
total assets may be invested in other securities, including preferred stock.
The fund will invest in adjustable rate mortgage pass-through securities and
other securities representing an interest in or collateralized by mortgages
with periodic interest rate resets, some of which may be subject to repurchase
agreements. These securities often are issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
government, its agencies or instrumentalities. However, the fund also may
purchase mortgage-backed securities that are issued by non-governmental
entities. Such securities may or may not have private insurer guarantees as to
timely payments. The fund also may purchase mortgage and interest rate swaps
and interest rate floors and caps. The fund also may employ other investment
techniques to enhance returns, such as loans of fund securities, mortgage
dollar rolls, repurchase agreements, options contracts and reverse repurchase
agreements.
The Fund will maintain a maximum duration of approximately two years. Under
normal interest rate conditions, the Fund's actual duration is expected to be
in a range of approximately six months to one year.
RISK FACTORS
The investments of the Fund are concentrated in the Underlying Funds, so the
Fund's investment performance is directly related to the performance of the
Underlying Funds. In addition, as a matter of fundamental policy, the Fund must
allocate its investments among the Underlying Funds within certain ranges. As a
result, the Fund does not have the same flexibility to invest as a mutual fund
without such constraints.
The Fund may invest in Underlying Funds which invest in medium or lower grade
bonds. If these bonds are downgraded, the Adviser will consider whether to
increase or decrease the Fund's investment in the affected Underlying Fund.
Further, the Fund may invest in Underlying Funds which concentrate their assets
in certain industries. Under certain circumstances, this could result in the
Fund being concentrated in those industries. If this were to occur, the Adviser
would consider whether to maintain or change the Fund's investments in such
Underlying Funds.
Special Risks of Investing in Equity Funds
Changes in the value of an equity fund's portfolio securities will not affect
cash income, if any, derived from these securities but will affect the fund's
net asset value. Because equity funds invest primarily in equity securities,
which fluctuate in value, the funds' shares will fluctuate in value. In
addition, certain investment management techniques that the funds may use, such
as the purchase and sale of futures, options and forward commitments, could
expose the funds to potentially greater risk of loss than more traditional
equity investments.
Special Risks of Investing in Fixed-Income Funds
The market value of a fund's fixed-income investments will change in response
to interest rate changes and other factors. During periods of falling interest
rates, the values of outstanding fixed-income securities generally rise.
Conversely, during periods of rising interest rates, the values of such
securities generally decline. Moreover, while securities with longer maturities
tend to produce higher yields, the prices of longer maturity securities are
also subject to greater market fluctuations as a result of changes in interest
rates. Changes by recognized agencies in the rating of any fixed-income
security and in the ability of an issuer to make payments of interest and
principal also affect the value of these investments. Except under condition of
default, changes in the value of fixed-income securities will not affect cash
income derived from these securities but will affect the funds' net asset
value.
10
<PAGE> 119
Special Risks of Investing in Index Funds
Because of the funds' investment objectives, securities may be purchased,
retained and sold by the funds when such transactions would not be consistent
with traditional investment criteria. Accordingly, an investor is exposed to a
greater risk of loss (and a correspondingly greater prospect of gain) from
fluctuations in the value of such securities than would be the case if the
funds were not fully invested in such securities. In addition, the Adviser may
eliminate one or more securities or elect not to increase the funds' position
in such securities notwithstanding the continued listing of such securities on
the relevant index in the following circumstances: (i) the stock is no longer
publicly traded; or (ii) an unexpected adverse development occurs with respect
to a company such as bankruptcy or insolvency. As a result of these risk
factors, the share price of an index fund is expected to be volatile, and
investors should be able to sustain sudden, sometimes substantial, fluctuations
in the value of their investment.
Special Risks of Foreign Securities
Investments in securities of foreign issuers involve risks that are different
from investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These risks may include future
unfavorable political and economic developments, possible withholding taxes,
seizure of foreign deposits, currency controls, higher transaction costs, and
delayed settlements of transactions. Securities of some foreign companies are
less liquid, and their prices more volatile, than securities of comparable U.S.
companies. Additionally, there may be less public information available about
foreign issuers. Finally, since the funds may invest in securities denominated
in foreign currencies, changes in exchange rates may affect the value of
investments in the funds.
Special Risks of Small Capitalization Companies
Smaller, less seasoned companies may be subject to greater business risk than
larger, established companies. They may be more vulnerable to changes in
economic conditions, specific industry conditions, market fluctuations and
other factors affecting the profitability of companies. Therefore, the stock
price of smaller capitalization companies may be subject to greater price
fluctuations than that of larger, established companies. Due to these and other
risk factors, the price movement of the securities held by the funds may be
volatile and the net asset value of shares of the funds may fluctuate.
Special Risks of Mortgage Related Securities
Some of the funds invest in mortgage-related securities, such as
mortgage-backed securities, adjustable rate mortgage loans ("ARMs"), fixed rate
mortgage loans, and mortgage dollar rolls. The investment characteristics of
mortgage-related securities differ from traditional debt securities. These
differences can result in significantly greater price and yield volatility than
is the case with traditional fixed-income securities. The major differences
typically include more frequent interest and principal payments, usually
monthly, the adjustability of interest rates, and the possibility that
prepayments of principal may be made at any time. Prepayment rates are
influenced by changes in current interest rates and a variety of economic,
geographic, social, and other factors. During periods of declining interest
rates, prepayment rates can be expected to accelerate. Under certain interest
rate and prepayment rate scenarios, a fund may fail to recoup fully its
investment in mortgage-related securities notwithstanding a direct or indirect
governmental or agency guarantee. The funds intend to use hedging techniques to
control this risk. In general, changes in the rate of prepayments on a
mortgage-related security will change that security's market value and its
yield to maturity. When interest rates fall, high prepayments could force a
fund to reinvest principal at a time when investment opportunities are not
attractive. Thus, mortgage-related securities may not be an effective means for
a fund to lock in long-term interest rates. Conversely, during periods when
interest rates rise, slow prepayments could cause the average life of the
security to lengthen and the value to decline more than anticipated.
HOW TO DO BUSINESS WITH
THE ONE GROUP(R)
HOW TO INVEST IN THE ONE GROUP(R)
Shares of the Fund are sold on a continuous basis and may be purchased directly
from the Trust's Distributor, The One Group(R) Services Company, by mail, by
telephone, or by wire. Shares may also be purchased through a financial
institution, such as a bank, savings and loan association or insurance company
(each a "Shareholder Servicing Agent"), that has established a Shareholder
servicing agreement with the Distributor, or through a broker-dealer that has
established a dealer agreement with the Distributor.
Purchases and redemptions of shares of the Fund may be made on any day that the
New York Stock Exchange is open for trading ("Business Days"). The minimum
initial and subsequent investments in the Fund are $1,000 and $100 respectively
($100 and $25, respectively, for employees of BANC ONE CORPORATION and its
affiliates). Initial and subsequent investment minimums
11
<PAGE> 120
may be waived at the Distributor's discretion. Investors may purchase up to a
maximum of $250,000 of Class B shares per individual purchase order.
Class A shares are offered to IRA account participants and other long-term
investors. Class B shares are offered to investors in certain retirement plans
such as 401(k) and similar qualified plans. Fiduciary Class shares are offered
to institutional investors, including affiliates of BANC ONE CORPORATION and
any bank, depository institution, insurance company, pension plan or other
organization authorized to act in fiduciary, advisory, agency, custodial or
similar capacities (each an "Authorized Financial Organization"). For
additional details regarding eligibility, call the Distributor at
1-800-480-4111.
BY MAIL
Investors may purchase Class A and Class B shares of the Fund by completing and
signing an Account Application Form and mailing it, along with a check (or
other negotiable bank instrument or money order) payable to "The One Group(R),"
to State Street Bank and Trust Company (the Trust's Transfer Agent and
Custodian), P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500. Subsequent purchases of
shares may be made at any time by mailing a check to the Transfer Agent.
Account Application Forms are available through the Distributor by calling
1-800-480-4111.
Purchases of Fiduciary Class shares, and Class B shares that are being offered
to investors in certain retirement plans such as 401(k) and similar plans,
other than Individual Retirement Accounts, are made by an institutional
investor and/or other intermediary on behalf of an investor (each also a
"Shareholder Servicing Agent"). The Shareholder Servicing Agent may require an
investor to complete forms in addition to the Account Application Form and to
follow procedures established by the Shareholder Servicing Agent. Such
Shareholders should contact their Shareholder Servicing Agents regarding
purchases, exchanges and redemptions of shares. See "Additional Information
Regarding Purchases."
BY TELEPHONE OR BY WIRE
Once an Account Application Form has been received, Shareholders are eligible
to make purchases by telephone or wire (if that option has been selected by a
Shareholder) by calling the Transfer Agent at 1-800-480-4111 or the Shareholder
Servicing Agents, if applicable.
Shareholders may revoke their automatic eligibility to make purchases and/or
redemptions by telephone or by wire, by sending a letter so stating to the
Transfer Agent, State Street Bank and Trust Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA
02266-8500.
SYSTEMATIC INVESTMENT PLAN
Class A and Class B investors may make automatic monthly investments in the
Fund from their bank, savings and loan or other depository institution
accounts. The minimum initial and subsequent investments must be $25 under the
Systematic Investment Plan, which minimum may be waived at the discretion of
the Distributor. The Trust pays the costs associated with these transfers, but
reserves the right, upon thirty days' written notice, to impose reasonable
charges for this service. A depository institution may impose a charge for
debiting an investor's account which would reduce the investor's return from an
investment in the Fund.
FUND-DIRECT IRA
The Trust offers a tax-advantaged retirement plan for which the Fund may be an
appropriate investment. The Trust's retirement plan allows participants to
defer taxes while helping them build their retirement savings.
The One Group Fund-Direct IRA is a retirement plan with a wide choice of
investments offering people with earned income the opportunity to compound
earnings on a tax-deferred basis. An IRA Adoption Agreement may be obtained by
calling the Distributor at 1-800-480-4111.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING PURCHASES
A purchase order will be effective as of the day received by the Distributor if
the Distributor receives the order before 4:00 p.m., eastern time. However, an
order may be cancelled if the Transfer Agent does not receive Federal funds
before close of business on the next Business Day for Fiduciary Class shares,
and before the close of business on the third Business Day for Class A and
Class B shares, and the investor could be liable for any fees or expenses
incurred by the Trust. Federal funds are monies credited to a bank's account
with a Federal Reserve Bank. The purchase price of shares of the Fund is the
net asset value next determined after a purchase order is effected plus any
applicable sales charge (the "offering price"). The net asset value per share
of the Fund
12
<PAGE> 121
is determined by dividing the total market value of the Fund's investments and
other assets allocable to a class, less any liabilities allocable to that
class, by the total number of outstanding shares of such class. Net asset value
per share is determined daily as of 4:00 p.m., eastern time, on each Business
Day. For a further discussion of the calculation of net asset value, see the
Statement of Additional Information. Shares may also be issued in transactions
involving the acquisition by the Fund of securities held by collective
investment funds sponsored and administered by affiliates of the Adviser.
Purchases will be made in full and fractional shares of the Fund calculated to
three decimal places. Although the methodology and procedures are identical,
the net asset value per share of classes within the Fund may differ because the
distribution expenses charged to Class A shares and Class B shares are not
charged to Fiduciary Class shares.
The Trust reserves the right to reject a purchase order when the Distributor
determines that it is not in the best interest of the Trust and/or its
Shareholders to accept such order. Except as provided below, neither the
Trust's Transfer Agent nor the Trust will be responsible for any loss,
liability, cost or expense for acting upon telephone or wire instructions, and
the investor will bear all risk of loss. The Trust will employ reasonable
procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine,
including requiring a form of personal identification prior to acting upon
instructions received by telephone and recording telephone instructions. If
such procedures are not employed, the Trust may be liable for any losses due to
unauthorized or fraudulent instructions.
Fiduciary Class shares offered to institutional investors and to investors in
certain retirement plans, Class A shares offered to IRA account participants
and Class B shares that are offered to investors in certain retirement plans
such as 401(k) and similar plans, other than Individual Retirement Accounts,
will normally be held in the name of the Shareholder Servicing Agent effecting
the purchase on the Shareholder's behalf, and it is the Shareholder Servicing
Agent's responsibility to transmit purchase orders to the Distributor. A
Shareholder Servicing Agent may impose an earlier cut-off time for receipt of
purchase orders directed through it to allow for processing and transmittal of
these orders to the Distributor for effectiveness the same day. The Shareholder
should contact his or her Shareholder Servicing Agent for information as to the
Shareholder Servicing Agent's procedures for transmitting purchase, exchange or
redemption orders to the Trust. A Shareholder who desires to transfer the
registration of shares beneficially owned by him or her, but held of record by
a Shareholder Servicing Agent, should contact the Shareholder Servicing Agent
to accomplish such change. Other Shareholders who desire to transfer the
registration of their shares should contact the Transfer Agent.
No certificates representing shares of the Fund will be issued. In
communications to Shareholders, the Fund will not duplicate mailings of Fund
material to Shareholders who reside at the same address.

in amounts that are additional to the commissions shown above. The maximum cash
compensation payable by the Distributor as a sales charge is 3.00% of the
offering price (including the commission shown above and additional cash
compensation described below). In addition, the Distributor will, from time to
time and at its own expense, provide promotional incentives to financial
institutions and intermediaries, whose registered representatives have sold or
are expected to sell significant amounts of the shares of the Fund in the form
of payment for travel expenses, including lodging, incurred in connection with
trips taken by qualifying registered representatives to places within or
outside the United States, and additional compensation in an amount up to 1.00%
of the offering price of Class A shares of the Fund for sales of $1 million to
$5 million, and 0.50% for sales over $5 million. A Shareholder who purchases $1
million or more of Class A shares and is not assessed a sales charge at the
time of purchase, will be assessed a sales charge equivalent to 1% of the
purchase
13
<PAGE> 122
price if such Shareholder redeems any or all of the Class A shares prior to the
first anniversary of purchase. Under certain circumstances, commissions up to
the amount of the entire sales charge will be reallowed to financial
institutions and intermediaries, which might then be deemed to be
"underwriters" under the Securities Act of 1933.
RIGHT OF ACCUMULATION
In calculating the sales charge rates applicable to current purchases of Class
A shares, a "single purchaser" is entitled to cumulate current purchases with
the current value at the offering price of previously purchased Class A and
Class B shares of the Fund and other eligible funds of the Trust, other than
the Trust's money market funds, that are sold subject to a comparable sales
charge.
The term "single purchaser" refers to (i) an individual, (ii) an individual and
spouse purchasing shares of the Fund for their own account or for trust or
custodial accounts for their minor children, or (iii) a fiduciary purchasing
for any one trust, estate or fiduciary account, including employee benefit
plans created under Sections 401 or 457 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code"), and including related plans of the same employer. To
be entitled to a reduced sales charge based upon shares already owned, the
investor must ask the Distributor for such reduction at the time of purchase
and provide the account number(s) of the investor, the investor and spouse, and
their minor children, and give the age of such children. The Fund may amend or
terminate this right of accumulation at any time as to subsequent purchases.
LETTER OF INTENT
By initially investing at least $2,000 in Class A shares of one or more funds
that impose a comparable sales charge over the next 13 months, the sales charge
may be reduced by completing the Letter of Intent section of the Account
Application Form. The Letter of Intent includes a provision for a sales charge
adjustment depending on the amount actually purchased within the 13-month
period. In addition, pursuant to a Letter of Intent, the Custodian will hold in
escrow the difference between the sales charge applicable to the amount
initially purchased and the sales charge paid at the time of investment, which
is based on the amount covered by the Letter of Intent.
For example, assume an investor signs a Letter of Intent to purchase $250,000
in Class A shares of one (or more) of the funds of the Trust that imposes a
comparable sales charge and, at the time of signing the Letter of Intent,
purchases $100,000 of Class A shares of one of these funds. The investor would
pay an initial sales charge of 1.50% (the sales charge applicable to purchases
of $250,000) and .50% of the investment (representing the difference between
the 2.00% sales charge applicable to purchases of $100,000 and the 1.50% sales
charge already paid) would be held in escrow until the investor has purchased
the remaining $150,000 or more in Class A shares under the investor's Letter of
Intent.
The amount held in escrow will be applied to the investor's account at the end
of the 13-month period unless the amount specified in the Letter of Intent is
not purchased. In order to qualify for a Letter of Intent, the investor will be
required to make a minimum purchase of at least $2,000.
The Letter of Intent will not obligate the investor to purchase Class A shares,
but if he or she does, each purchase during the period will be at the sales
charge applicable to the total amount intended to be purchased. The Letter of
Intent may be dated as of a prior date to include any purchases made within the
past 90 days.
OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES
No sales charge is imposed on Class A shares of the Fund: (i) issued through
reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions; (ii) acquired
through the exercise of exchange privileges where a comparable sales charge has
been paid for exchanged shares; (iii) purchased by officers, directors or
trustees, retirees and employees (and their spouses and immediate family
members) of the Trust, of BANC ONE CORPORATION and its subsidiaries and
affiliates, of the Distributor and its subsidiaries and affiliates, or of an
investment sub-adviser of a fund of the Trust and such sub-adviser's
subsidiaries and affiliates; (iv) sold to affiliates of BANC ONE CORPORATION
and certain accounts (other than Individual Retirement Accounts) for which
Authorized Financial Organizations act in fiduciary, advisory, agency,
custodial or similar capacities, or purchased by investment advisers, financial
planners or other intermediaries who have a dealer arrangement with the
Distributor, who place trades for their own accounts or for the accounts of
their clients and who charge a management, consulting or other fee for their
services, as well as clients of such investment advisers, financial planners or
other intermediaries who place trades for their own accounts if the accounts
are linked to the master account of such investment adviser, financial planner
or other intermediary; (v) purchased with proceeds from the recent redemption
of Fiduciary Class shares of a fund of the Trust or acquired in an exchange of
Fiduciary Class shares of a fund for Class A shares of the same fund; (vi)
purchased with proceeds from the recent redemption of shares of a mutual fund
(other than a fund of the Trust) for which a sales charge was paid; (vii)
purchased in an Individual Retirement Account with the proceeds of a
distribution from an employee benefit plan, provided that, at the time of
distribution, the employee benefit plan had plan assets invested in a fund of
the Trust; (viii) purchased with Trust assets; (ix) purchased in accounts as to
which a bank or broker-dealer charges an asset allocation
14
<PAGE> 123
fee, provided the bank or broker-dealer has an agreement with the Distributor;
(x) directly purchased with the proceeds of a distribution on a bond for which
a BANC ONE CORPORATION affiliate bank or trust company is the Trustee or Paying
Agent; or (xi) purchased in connection with plans of reorganization of the
Fund, such as mergers, asset acquisitions and exchange offers to which the Fund
is a party.
An investor relying upon any of the categories of waivers of the sales charge
must qualify for such waiver in advance of the purchase with the Distributor or
the financial institution or intermediary through which shares are purchased by
the investor.
The waiver of the sales charge under circumstances (v), (vi), and (vii) above
applies only if the purchase is made within 60 days of the redemption or
distribution and if conditions imposed by the Distributor are met. The waiver
policy with respect to the purchase of shares through the use of proceeds from
a recent redemption or distribution as described in clauses (v), (vi), and
(vii) above will not be continued indefinitely and may be discontinued at any
time without notice. Investors should call the Distributor at 1-800-480-4111 to
determine whether they are eligible to purchase shares without paying a sales
charge through the use of proceeds from a recent redemption or distribution as
described above, and to confirm continued availability of these waiver policies
prior to initiating the procedures described in clauses (v), (vi), and (vii).
ALTERNATIVE SALES ARRANGEMENTS
CLASS B SHARES
Class B shares are not subject to a sales charge when they are purchased, but
are subject to a sales charge (the "Contingent Deferred Sales Charge") if a
Shareholder redeems them prior to the sixth anniversary of purchase. When a
Shareholder purchases Class B shares, the full purchase amount is invested
directly in the Fund. Class B shares of the Fund are subject to an ongoing
distribution and Shareholder service fee at an annual rate of 1.00% of the
Fund's average daily net assets as provided in the Class B Plan (described
below under "The Distributor"). This ongoing fee will cause Class B shares to
have a higher expense ratio and to pay lower dividends than Class A shares.
Class B shares convert automatically to Class A shares after eight years,
commencing from the end of the calendar month in which the purchase order was
accepted under the circumstances and subject to the qualifications described in
this Prospectus.
Proceeds from the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the distribution and
Shareholder service fees under the Class B Plan are payable to the Distributor
and financial intermediaries to defray the expenses of advance brokerage
commissions and expenses related to providing distribution-related and
Shareholder services to the Fund in connection with the sale of the Class B
shares, such as the payment of compensation to dealers and agents for selling
Class B shares. A dealer reallowance of 4.00% of the original purchase price of
the Class B shares will be paid to financial institutions and intermediaries.
CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE
If the Shareholder redeems Class B shares prior to the sixth anniversary of
purchase, the Shareholder will pay a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge at the
rates set forth below. The Contingent Deferred Sales Charge is assessed on an
amount equal to the lesser of the then-current market value or the cost of the
shares being redeemed. Accordingly, no sales charge is imposed on increases in
net asset value above the initial purchase price. In addition, no charge is
assessed on shares derived from reinvestment of dividends or capital gain
distributions.
The amount of the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge, if any, varies depending on
the number of years from the time of payment for the purchase of Class B shares
until the time of redemption of such shares. Solely for purposes of determining
the number of years from the time of any payment for the purchase of shares,
all payments during a month are aggregated and deemed to have been made on the
first day of the month.

In determining whether a particular redemption is subject to a Contingent
Deferred Sales Charge, it is assumed that the redemption is first of any Class
A shares in the Shareholder's Fund account (unless the Shareholder elects to
have Class B shares redeemed first) or shares representing capital
appreciation, next of shares acquired pursuant to reinvestment of dividends and
capital gain distributions, and finally of other shares held by the Shareholder
for the longest period of time. This method should result in the lowest
possible sales charge.
To provide an example, assume you purchased 100 shares at $10 per share (a
total cost of $1,000) and prior to the second anniversary after purchase, the
net asset value per share is $12 and during such time you have acquired 10
additional shares through dividends paid in shares. If you then make your first
redemption of 50 shares (proceeds of $600), 10 shares will not be subject to
charge because you received them as dividends. With respect to the remaining 40
shares, the charge is applied only to the original cost of $10 per share and
not to the increase in net asset value of $2 per share. Therefore, $400 of the
$600 redemption proceeds is subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge at a
rate of 4.00% (the applicable rate prior to the second anniversary after
purchase).
The Contingent Deferred Sales Charge is waived on redemption of shares: (i) for
distributions that are made under a Systematic Withdrawal Plan of the Trust and
that are limited to no more than 10% of the account value annually, determined
in the first year as of the date the redemption request is received by the
Transfer Agent, and in subsequent years, as of the most recent anniversary of
that date; (ii) following the death or disability (as defined in the Code) of a
Shareholder or a participant or beneficiary of a qualifying retirement plan if
redemption is made within one year of such death or disability; or (iii) to the
extent that the redemption represents a minimum required distribution from an
Individual Retirement Account or other qualifying retirement plan to a
Shareholder who has attained the age of 70 1/2. A Shareholder or his or her
representative should contact the Transfer Agent to determine whether a
retirement plan qualifies for a waiver and must notify the Transfer Agent prior
to the time of redemption if such circumstances exist and the Shareholder is
eligible for this waiver. In addition, the following circumstances are not
deemed to result in a "redemption" of Class B shares for purposes of the
assessment of a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge, which is therefore waived:
(i) plans of reorganization of the Fund, such as mergers, asset acquisitions
and exchange offers to which the Fund is a party; or (ii) exchanges for Class B
shares of other funds of the Trust as described under "Exchanges."
CONVERSION FEATURE
Class B shares include all shares purchased pursuant to the Contingent Deferred
Sales Charge which have been outstanding for less than the period ending eight
years after the end of the month in which the shares were purchased. At the end
of this period, Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares and
will be subject to the lower distribution and Shareholder service fees charged
to Class A shares. Such conversion will be on the basis of the relative net
asset values of the two classes, without the imposition of any sales charge,
fee or other charge. The conversion is not a taxable event to a Shareholder.
For purposes of conversion to Class A shares, shares received as dividends and
other distributions paid on Class B shares in a Shareholder's Fund account will
be considered to be held in a separate sub-account. Each time any Class B
shares in a Shareholder's Fund account (other than those in the sub-account)
convert to Class A shares, a pro-rata portion of the Class B shares in the
sub-account will also convert to Class A shares.
If a Shareholder effects one or more exchanges among Class B shares of the
funds of the Trust during the eight-year period, the Trust will aggregate the
holding periods for the shares of each fund of the Trust for purposes of
calculating that eight-year period. Because the per share net asset value of
the Class A shares may be higher than that of the Class B shares at the time of
conversion, a Shareholder may receive fewer Class A shares than the number of
Class B shares converted, although the dollar value will be the same.
EXCHANGES
CLASS A AND FIDUCIARY CLASS
Fiduciary Class Shareholders of the Fund may exchange their shares for Class A
shares of the Fund or for Class A shares or Fiduciary Class shares of another
fund of the Trust.
Class A Shareholders may exchange their shares for Fiduciary Class shares of
the Fund or for Fiduciary Class shares or Class A shares of another fund of the
Trust, if the Shareholder is eligible to purchase such shares.
The exchange privilege may be exercised only in those states where the shares
of the Fund or such other fund of the Trust may be legally sold. All exchanges
discussed herein are made at the net asset value of the exchanged shares,
except as provided below.
16
<PAGE> 125
The Trust does not impose a charge for processing exchanges of shares. If a
Shareholder seeks to exchange Class A shares of a fund that does not impose a
sales charge for Class A shares of a fund that does or the fund being exchanged
into has a higher sales charge, the Shareholder will be required to pay a sales
charge in the amount equal to the difference between the sales charge
applicable to the fund into which the shares are being exchanged and any sales
charges previously paid for the exchanged shares, including any sales charges
incurred on any earlier exchanges of the shares (unless such sales charge is
otherwise waived, as provided in "Other Circumstances"). The exchange of
Fiduciary Class shares for Class A shares also will require payment of the
sales charge unless the sales charge is waived, as provided in "Other
Circumstances."
CLASS B
Class B Shareholders of the Fund may exchange their shares for Class B shares
of any other fund of the Trust on the basis of the net asset value of the
exchanged Class B shares, without the payment of any Contingent Deferred Sales
Charge that might otherwise be due upon redemption of the outstanding Class B
shares. The newly acquired Class B shares will be subject to the higher
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge of either the fund from which the shares were
exchanged or the fund into which the shares were exchanged. With respect to
outstanding Class B shares as to which previous exchanges have taken place,
"higher Contingent Deferred Sales Charge" shall mean the higher of the
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge applicable to either the fund the shares are
exchanging into or any other fund from which the shares previously have been
exchanged. For purposes of computing the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge that
may be payable upon a disposition of the newly acquired Class B shares, the
holding period for outstanding Class B shares of the fund from which the
exchange was made is "tacked" to the holding period of the newly acquired Class
B shares. For purposes of calculating the holding period applicable to the
newly acquired Class B shares, the newly acquired Class B shares shall be
deemed to have been issued on the date of receipt of the Shareholder's order to
purchase the outstanding Class B shares of the fund from which the initial
exchange was made.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING EXCHANGES
In the case of shares held of record by a Shareholder Servicing Agent but
beneficially owned by a Shareholder, to exchange such shares the Shareholder
should contact the Shareholder Servicing Agent, who will contact the Transfer
Agent and effect the exchange on behalf of the Shareholder. If an exchange
request in good order is received by the Transfer Agent by 4:00 p.m., eastern
time, on any Business Day, the exchange usually will occur on that day. Any
Shareholder who wishes to make an exchange must receive a current prospectus of
the fund of the Trust in which he or she wishes to invest before the exchange
will be effected.
The Trust reserves the right to change the terms or conditions of the exchange
privilege discussed herein upon sixty days' written notice. An exchange between
classes of shares of the same fund is not considered a taxable event; however,
an exchange between funds of the Trust is considered a sale of shares and
usually results in a capital gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes.
Shareholders should consult their tax advisers for a more complete explanation
of the Federal income tax consequences of an exchange of shares of the Fund.
A more detailed description of the above is set forth in the Statement of
Additional Information.
REDEMPTIONS
Shareholders may redeem their shares without charge (except Class B shares, as
provided above) on any Business Day; shares may ordinarily be redeemed by mail,
by telephone or by wire. All redemption orders are effected at the net asset
value per share next determined for Class A and Fiduciary Class shares, and at
net asset value per share next determined reduced by any applicable contingent
deferred sales charge for Class B shares after receipt of a valid request for
redemption. Payment to Shareholders for shares redeemed will be made within
seven days after receipt by the Transfer Agent of the request for redemption.
BY MAIL
A written request for redemption must be received by the Transfer Agent in
order to constitute a valid request for redemption. All written redemption
requests should be sent to The One Group(R), c/o State Street Bank and Trust
Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500, or the Shareholder Servicing
Agent, if applicable. The Transfer Agent may require that the signature on the
written request be guaranteed by a commercial bank, a member firm of a domestic
stock exchange, or by a member of the Securities Transfer Association Medallion
Program or the Stock Exchange Medallion Program.
17
<PAGE> 126
The signature guarantee requirement will be waived if all of the following
conditions apply: (i) the redemption is for $5,000 worth of shares or less;
(ii) the redemption check is payable to the Shareholder(s) of record; and (iii)
the redemption check is mailed to the Shareholder(s) at the address of record.
The Shareholder may also have the proceeds mailed to a commercial bank account
previously designated on the Account Application Form or by written instruction
to the Transfer Agent or the Shareholder Servicing Agent, if applicable. There
is no charge for having redemption requests mailed to a designated bank
account.
BY TELEPHONE OR BY WIRE
Shareholders may have the payment of redemption requests wired or mailed to a
domestic commercial bank account previously designated on the Account
Application Form. Wire redemption requests may be made by the Shareholder by
telephone to the Transfer Agent at 1-800-480-4111, provided that the
Shareholder has elected the telephone redemption privilege in writing to the
Distributor, or to the Shareholder Servicing Agent, if applicable. The Transfer
Agent may reduce the amount of a wire redemption payment by its then-current
wire redemption charge, which, as of the date of this Prospectus, is $7.00.
Neither the Trust nor the Transfer Agent will be responsible for the
authenticity of the redemption instructions received by telephone if it
reasonably believes those instructions to be genuine. The Trust and the
Transfer Agent will each employ reasonable procedures to confirm that telephone
instructions are genuine, and may be liable for losses resulting from
unauthorized or fraudulent telephone transactions if it does not employ those
procedures. Such procedures may include requesting personal identification
information or recording telephone conversations.
SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PLAN
Shareholders whose accounts have a value of at least $10,000 may elect to
receive, or may designate another person to receive, monthly, quarterly or
annual payments in a specified amount of not less than $100 each. There is no
charge for this service. Under the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, all dividends
and distributions must be reinvested in shares of the Fund. Purchases of
additional Class A or Class B shares while the Systematic Withdrawal Plan is in
effect are generally undesirable because a sales charge is incurred whenever
purchases are made.
Pursuant to the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, Class B Shareholders may elect to
receive, or may designate another person to receive, distributions provided the
distributions are limited to no more than 10% of their account value annually,
determined in the first year as of the date the redemption request is received
by the Transfer Agent, and in subsequent years, as of the most recent
anniversary of that date.
In addition, Shareholders who have attained the age of 70 1/2 may elect to
receive distributions, to the extent that the redemption represents a minimum
required distribution from an Individual Retirement Account or other qualifying
retirement plan.
If the amount of systematic withdrawal exceeds income accrued since the
previous withdrawal under the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, the principal balance
invested will be reduced and shares will be redeemed.
OTHER INFORMATION REGARDING REDEMPTIONS
At various times, the Fund may be requested to redeem shares for which it has
not yet received good payment. In such circumstances, the forwarding of
proceeds may be delayed for 15 or more days until payment has been collected
for the purchase of such shares. The Fund intends to pay cash for all shares
redeemed.
Due to the relatively high costs of handling small investments, the Fund
reserves the right to redeem, at net asset value, the shares of any Shareholder
if, because of redemptions of shares by or on behalf of the Shareholder, the
account of such Shareholder in the Fund has a value of less than $1,000, the
minimum initial purchase amount. Accordingly, an investor purchasing shares of
the Fund in only the minimum investment amount may be subject to such
involuntary redemption if he or she thereafter redeems any of these shares.
Before the Fund exercises its right to redeem such shares and to send the
proceeds to the Shareholder, the Shareholder will be given notice that the
value of the shares in his or her account is less than the minimum amount and
will be allowed 60 days to make an additional investment in the Fund in an
amount which will increase the value of the account to at least $1,000.
See the Statement of Additional Information for examples of when the Trust may
suspend the right of redemption or redeem shares involuntarily if it appears
appropriate to do so in light of the Trust's responsibilities under the
Investment Company Act of 1940.

FUND MANAGEMENT
THE ADVISER
The Trust and Banc One Investment Advisors Corporation (the "Adviser") have
entered into an investment advisory agreement (the "Advisory Agreement"). Under
the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser makes the investment decisions for the
assets of the Fund and continuously reviews, supervises and administers the
Fund's investment program. The Adviser discharges its responsibilities subject
to the supervision of, and policies established by, the Trustees of the Trust.
The Trust's shares are not deposits or obligations of, or endorsed or
guaranteed by BANC ONE CORPORATION or its bank or non-bank affiliates. The
Trust's shares are not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation ("FDIC") or by any other governmental agency or government
sponsored agency of the Federal government or any state.
The Adviser is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of BANC ONE CORPORATION, a
bank holding company incorporated in the state of Ohio. BANC ONE CORPORATION
currently has affiliate banking organizations in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois,
Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Ohio, Oklahoma, Texas, Utah, West Virginia and
Wisconsin. In addition, BANC ONE CORPORATION has several affiliates that engage
in data processing, venture capital, investment and merchant banking, and other
diversified services including trust management, investment management,
brokerage, equipment leasing, mortgage banking, consumer finance and insurance.
On a consolidated basis, BANC ONE CORPORATION had assets of over $90.5billion
as of December 31, 1995.
The Adviser represents a consolidation of the investment advisory staffs of a
number of bank affiliates of BANC ONE CORPORATION, which have considerable
experience in the management of open-end management investment company
portfolios, including The One Group(R) since 1985 (then known as "The Helmsman
Fund").
No single person is responsible for managing the assets of the Fund. Rather,
investment decisions for the Fund are made by committee.
The Adviser is entitled to a fee which is calculated daily and paid monthly, at
an annual rate of .05% of the average daily net assets of the Fund.
The Adviser also serves as investment adviser to each of the Underlying Funds.
As a shareholder of each of the Underlying Funds, the Fund will indirectly bear
its proportionate share of investment advisory fees paid by those funds. The
Underlying Funds pay the Adviser an advisory fee at the following rates:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
The One Group(R) Prime Money Market Fund .27%
The One Group(R) Limited Volatility Bond Fund .30%
The One Group(R) Intermediate Bond Fund .30%

</TABLE>
THE DISTRIBUTOR
The One Group(R) Services Company (the "Distributor"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the BISYS Group, Inc., and the Trust are parties to a
distribution agreement (the "Distribution Agreement") under which shares of the
Fund are sold on a continuous basis.
19
<PAGE> 128
Class A shares are subject to a distribution and Shareholder services plan (the
"Plan"). As provided in the Plan, the Trust will pay the Distributor a fee of
.35% of the average daily net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. Currently,
the Distributor has voluntarily agreed to limit payments under the Plan to .25%
of the average daily net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. Up to .25% of
the fees payable under the Plan may be used as compensation for Shareholder
services by the Distributor and/or financial institutions and intermediaries.
All such fees that may be paid under the Plan will be paid pursuant to Rule
12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Distributor may apply these
fees toward: (i) compensation for its services in connection with distribution
assistance or provision of Shareholder services; or (ii) payments to financial
institutions and intermediaries such as banks (including affiliates of the
Adviser), savings and loan associations, insurance companies, investment
counselors, broker-dealers, and the Distributor's affiliates and subsidiaries,
as compensation for services or reimbursement of expenses incurred in
connection with distribution assistance or provision of Shareholder services.
Class B shares are subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge if such shares
are redeemed prior to the sixth anniversary of purchase. Class B shares of the
Fund are subject to an ongoing distribution and Shareholder service fee as
provided in the Class B distribution and Shareholder services plan (the "Class
B Plan") at an annual rate of 1.00% of the Fund's average daily net assets,
which includes Shareholder servicing fees of .25% of the Fund's average daily
net assets.
Proceeds from the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the distribution and
Shareholder service fees under the Class B Plan are payable to the Distributor
and financial intermediaries to defray the expenses of advance brokerage
commissions and expenses related to providing distribution-related and
Shareholder services to the Fund in connection with the sale of Class B shares,
such as the payment of compensation to dealers and agents for selling Class B
shares. The combination of the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the
distribution and Shareholder service fees facilitate the ability of the Fund to
sell the Class B shares without a sales charge being deducted at the time of
purchase.
The Plan and the Class B Plan are characterized as compensation plans since the
distribution fees will be paid to the Distributor without regard to the
distribution or Shareholder service expenses incurred by the Distributor or the
amount of payments made to financial institutions and intermediaries. The Fund
also may execute brokerage or other agency transactions through an affiliate of
the Adviser or through the Distributor for which the affiliate or the
Distributor receives compensation. Pursuant to guidelines adopted by the Board
of Trustees of the Trust, any such compensation will be reasonable and fair
compared to compensation received by other brokers in connection with
comparable transactions.
Fiduciary Class shares of the Fund are offered without distribution fees to
institutional investors, including Authorized Financial Organizations. It is
possible that an institution may offer different classes of shares to its
customers and thus receive different compensation with respect to different
classes of shares. In addition, a financial institution that is the record
owner of shares for the account of its customers may impose separate fees for
account services to its customers.
THE ADMINISTRATOR
The One Group(R) Services Company, (the "Administrator"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the BISYS Group, Inc., and the Trust are parties to an
administration agreement relating to the Fund (the "Administration Agreement").
Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, the Administrator is
responsible for providing the Trust with administrative services (other than
investment advisory services), including regulatory reporting and all necessary
office space, equipment, personnel and facilities.
The Adviser also serves as Sub-Administrator to each fund of the Trust,
pursuant to an agreement between the Administrator and the Adviser. Pursuant to
this agreement, the Adviser performs many of the Administrator's duties, for
which the Adviser receives a fee paid by the Administrator.
The Administrator is entitled to a fee for administrative services, which is
calculated daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of .10% of the Fund's
average daily net assets on the first $500,000,000 in Fund assets, .075% of the
Fund's average daily net assets between $500,000,000 and $1 billion,
and .05% of the Fund's average daily net assets when Fund assets exceed $1
billion.
THE TRANSFER AGENT AND CUSTODIAN
State Street Bank and Trust Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500 acts
as Transfer Agent and Custodian for the Trust, for which services it receives a
fee. The Custodian holds cash, securities and other assets of the Trust as
required by the Investment Company Act of 1940. Bank One Trust Company, N.A.
serves as Sub-Custodian in connection with the Trust's securities lending
activities, pursuant to an agreement between State Street Bank and Trust
Company. Bank One Trust Company receives a fee paid by the Trust.

OTHER INFORMATION
THE TRUST
The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts Business Trust under a Declaration
of Trust filed on May 23, 1985. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trust to
offer separate funds and different classes of each fund. All consideration
received by the Trust for shares of any fund and all assets of such fund belong
to that fund and would be subject to liabilities related thereto.
The Trust pays its expenses, including fees of its service providers, audit and
legal expenses, expenses of preparing prospectuses, proxy solicitation material
and reports to Shareholders, costs of custodial services and registering the
shares under Federal and state securities laws, pricing, insurance expenses,
litigation and other extraordinary expenses, brokerage costs, interest charges,
taxes and organizational expenses.
The Adviser and the Administrator of the Fund each bears all expenses incurred
in connection with the performance of their services as investment adviser and
administrator, respectively, other than the cost of securities (including
brokerage commissions, if any) purchased for the Fund.
As a general matter, as set forth in the Multiple Class Plan, expenses are
allocated to each class of shares of the Fund on the basis of the net asset
value of that class in relation to the net asset value of the Fund. At present,
the only expenses that are allocated to Class A and Class B shares, other than
in accordance with the relative net asset value of the class, are the
distribution and Shareholder services costs. See "Expense Summary." At present,
no expenses are allocated to Fiduciary Class shares as a class that are not
also borne by the other classes of shares of the Fund in proportion to the
relative net asset value of the shares of such classes.
The organizational expenses of the Fund have been capitalized and are being
amortized in the first five years of the Fund's operations. Such amortization
will reduce the amount of income available for payment as dividends.
TRUSTEES OF THE TRUST
The management and affairs of the Trust are supervised by the Trustees under
the laws governing business trusts in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The
Trustees have approved contracts under which, as described above, certain
companies provide essential management services to the Trust.
VOTING RIGHTS
As set forth in the Multiple Class Plan, each share held entitles the
Shareholder of record to one vote. Each fund of the Trust will vote separately
on matters relating solely to that fund. In addition, each class of a fund
shall have exclusive voting rights on any matter submitted to Shareholders that
relates solely to that class, and shall have separate voting rights on any
matter submitted to Shareholders in which the interests of one class differ
from the interests of any other class. However, all fund Shareholders will have
equal voting rights on matters that affect all fund Shareholders equally. As a
Massachusetts Business Trust, the Trust is not required to hold annual meetings
of Shareholders but approval will be sought for certain changes in the
operation of the Trust and for the election of Trustees under certain
circumstances. In addition, a Trustee may be elected or removed by the
remaining Trustees or by Shareholders at a special meeting called upon written
request of Shareholders owning at least 10% of the outstanding shares of the
Trust. In the event that such a meeting is requested, the Trust will provide
appropriate assistance and information to the Shareholders requesting the
meeting.
DIVIDENDS
Net investment income (exclusive of capital gains) is declared daily, and is
determined and distributed in the form of monthly dividends to Shareholders of
Record on the first Business Day of each month. Capital gains of the Fund, if
any, will be distributed at least annually.
To maintain a relatively even rate of distributions from the Fund rather than
having substantial fluctuations from period to period, the monthly
distributions level from the Fund may be fixed from time to time at rates
consistent with the Adviser's long-term earnings expectations.
21
<PAGE> 130
Shareholders automatically receive all income dividends and capital gain
distributions in additional Class A, Class B or Fiduciary Class shares, as
applicable, at the net asset value next determined following the record date,
unless the Shareholder has elected to take such payment in cash. Such election,
or any revocation thereof, must be made in writing, at least 15 days prior to
distribution, to the Transfer Agent at P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500,
and will become effective with respect to dividends and distributions having
record dates after its receipt by the Transfer Agent. Reinvested dividends and
distributions receive the same tax treatment as dividends and distributions
paid in cash.
Class B shares received as dividends and capital gains distributions at net
asset value next determined following the record date shall be held in a
separate Class B sub-account. Each time any Class B shares (other than those in
the sub-account) convert to Class A shares, a pro-rata portion of the Class B
shares in the sub-account will also convert to Class A shares. See "Conversion
Feature."
Dividends and distributions of the Fund are paid on a per-share basis. The
value of each share will be reduced by the amount of the payment. If shares are
purchased shortly before the record date for a dividend or the distribution of
capital gains, a Shareholder will pay the full price for the shares and receive
some portion of the price back as a taxable dividend or distribution even
though such distribution would, in effect, represent a return of the
Shareholder's investment.
The amount of dividends payable on Fiduciary Class shares will be more than the
dividends payable on Class A and Class B shares because of the distribution
expenses charged to Class A and Class B shares.
SHAREHOLDER INQUIRIES
Shareholder inquiries should be directed to the Administrator, The One Group(R)
Services Company, 3435 Stelzer Road, Columbus, OH 43219.
REPORTING
The Trust issues unaudited financial information semiannually and audited
financial statements annually. The Trust furnishes proxy statements and other
reports to Shareholders of record.
OTHER INVESTMENT POLICIES
PORTFOLIO TURNOVER
Portfolio turnover may vary greatly from year to year as well as within a
particular year. It is presently estimated that the annual portfolio turnover
rate for the Fund will not exceed 160%. Higher portfolio turnover rates will
likely result in higher transaction costs to the Fund and may result in
additional tax consequences to the Fund's Shareholders.
INVESTMENT LIMITATIONS
The investment objective and the following investment limitations are
fundamental policies of the Fund. Fundamental policies cannot be changed
without the consent of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding
shares. The term "majority of the outstanding shares" means the vote of (i) 67%
or more of the Fund's shares present at a meeting, if more that 50% of the
outstanding shares of the Fund are present or represented by proxy, or (ii)
more than 50% of the Fund's outstanding shares, whichever is less.
The Fund may not:
1. Purchase securities of any issuer (except securities issued or guaranteed by
the United States, its agencies or instrumentalities, securities issued by
regulated investment companies, and if consistent with the Fund's investment
objective and policies, repurchase agreements involving such securities) if as
a result more than 25% of the total assets of the Fund would be invested in the
securities of such issuer. This restriction applies to 50% of the Fund's total
assets. With respect to the remaining 50% of its total assets, the fund may not
purchase the securities of any issuer if as a result more than 5% of the total
assets of the Fund would be invested in the securities of such issuer. For
purposes of this limitation, a security is considered to be issued by the
government entity whose assets and revenues guarantee or back the security.
With respect to private activity bonds or industrial development bonds backed
only by the assets and revenues of a non-governmental user, such user would
be considered the issuer.
2. Purchase any securities that would cause more than 25% of the total assets
of the Fund to be invested in the securities of one or more issuers conducting
their principal business activities in the same industry, except for
investments in funds of the One Group(R), provided that this
limitation does not apply to investments in obligations issued or guaranteed by
the U.S. government or its agencies and instrumentalities and repurchase
agreements involving such securities. For purposes of this limitation (i)
utilities will be divided according to their services (for example, gas, gas
transmission, electric and telephone will each be considered a separate
industry); and (ii) wholly-owned finance companies will be considered to be in
the industries of their parents if their activities are primarily related to
financing the activities of their parents.
22
<PAGE> 131
3. Make loans, except that the Fund may (i) purchase or hold debt instruments
in accordance with its investment objective and policies; (ii) enter into
repurchase agreements; and (iii) engage in securities lending as described in
this Prospectus and in the Statement of Additional Information.
The foregoing percentages will apply at the time of the purchase of a security.
Additional investment limitations are set forth in the Statement of Additional
Information. For the investment limitations of the Underlying Funds, see the
applicable prospectuses.
DESCRIPTION OF PERMITTED INVESTMENTS
The following is a description of certain of the permitted investments for the
Underlying Funds. As described above in "Investment Policies of the Fund -
Permissible Investments," the Fund may also invest directly in certain of the
following instruments for temporary defensive purposes. For a more detailed
description, see the Statement of Additional Information or the prospectuses of
the Underlying Funds.
U.S. TREASURY OBLIGATIONS -- The funds may invest in bills, notes and bonds
issued by the U.S. Treasury and separately traded interest and principal
component parts of such obligations that are transferable through the Federal
book-entry system known as Separately Traded Registered Interest and Principal
Securities ("STRIPS") and Coupon Under Book Entry Safekeeping ("CUBES").
RECEIPTS -- The funds may purchase interests in separately traded interest and
principal component parts of U.S. Treasury obligations that are issued by banks
or brokerage firms and are created by depositing U.S. Treasury notes and U.S.
Treasury bonds into a special account at a custodian bank. Receipts include
Treasury Receipts ("TRS"), Treasury Investment Growth Receipts ("TIGRS"), and
Certificates of Accrual on Treasury Securities ("CATS").
CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT -- Certificates of deposit ("CDs") are negotiable
interest bearing instruments with a specific maturity. CDs are issued by banks
and savings and loan institutions in exchange for the deposit of funds and
normally can be traded in the secondary market prior to maturity.
TIME DEPOSITS -- Time deposits are non-negotiable receipts issued by a bank in
exchange for the deposit of funds. Like a certificate of deposit, a time
deposit ("TD") earns a specified rate of interest over a definite period of
time; however, it cannot be traded in the secondary market.
BANKERS' ACCEPTANCES -- Bankers' acceptances are bills of exchange or time
drafts drawn on and accepted by (i.e., made an obligation of) a commercial
bank. Maturities are generally six months or less.
COMMERCIAL PAPER -- Commercial paper is the term used to designate unsecured
short-term promissory notes issued by corporations and other entities.
Maturities on these issues vary from a few days to nine months.
U.S. GOVERNMENT AGENCIES -- Certain Federal agencies have been established as
instrumentalities of the U.S. government to supervise and finance specific
types of activities. Select agencies, such as the Government National Mortgage
Association ("Ginnie Mae") and the Export-Import Bank, are supported by the
full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury; others, such as the Federal
National Mortgage Association ("Fannie Mae"), are supported by the credit of
the instrumentality and have the right to borrow from the U.S. Treasury; others
are supported by the authority of the U.S. government to purchase the agency's
obligations; while still others, such as the Federal Farm Credit Banks and the
Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac"), are supported solely by
the credit of the instrumentality itself. No assurance can be given that the
U.S. government would provide financial support to U.S. government sponsored
agencies or instrumentalities if it is not obligated to do so by law.
Obligations of U.S. government agencies include debt issues and mortgage-backed
securities issued or guaranteed by select agencies.
CORPORATE SECURITIES -- Corporate securities include corporate bonds,
convertible and non-convertible debt securities, and preferred stocks, as well
as commercial paper (short-term promissory notes issued by corporations).
Issuers of corporate bonds and notes are divided into many different categories
by bond market sector, such as electric utilities, gas utilities, telephone
utilities, consumer finance companies, wholesale finance companies and
industrial companies. Within each major category of issuer, there are many
subcategories.
WARRANTS -- Warrants are securities, typically issued with preferred stock or
bonds, that give the holder the right to buy a proportionate amount of common
stock at a specified price, usually at a price that is higher than the market
price at the time of issuance of the warrant. The right may last for a period
of years or indefinitely.
COMMON STOCK -- Common stock represents a share of ownership in a company and
usually carries voting rights and earns dividends. Unlike preferred stock,
dividends on common stock are not fixed but are declared at the discretion of
the issuer's board of directors.
23
<PAGE> 132
INVESTMENT COMPANY SECURITIES -- The funds may invest up to 5% of their total
assets in the securities of any one investment company, but may not own more
than 3% of the securities of any one investment company or invest more than 10%
of their assets in the securities of other investment companies.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- Repurchase agreements are agreements by which a person
obtains a security and simultaneously commits to return the security to the
seller at an agreed upon price (including principal and interest) on an agreed
upon date within a number of days from the date of purchase. The custodian or
its agent will hold the security as collateral for the repurchase agreement.
Collateral must be maintained at a value at least equal to 100% of the
repurchase price. The funds bear a risk of loss in the event the other party
defaults on its obligations and the funds are delayed or prevented from their
right to dispose of the collateral securities or if the funds realize a loss on
the sale of the collateral securities.
REVERSE REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS - The funds may borrow funds for temporary
purposes by entering into reverse repurchase agreements. Pursuant to such
agreements, the funds would sell portfolio securities to financial institutions
such as banks and broker-dealers, and agree to repurchase them at a mutually
agreed-upon date and price. The funds will enter into reverse repurchase
agreements only to avoid otherwise selling securities during unfavorable market
conditions to meet redemptions. At the time the funds enter into a reverse
repurchase agreement, they would place liquid high grade debt securities having
a value equal to the repurchase price (including accrued interest), in a
segregated custodial account and would subsequently monitor the account to
ensure that such equivalent value is maintained. Reverse repurchase agreements
involve the risk that the market value of the securities sold by the funds may
decline below the price at which the funds are obligated to repurchase the
securities.
DEMAND FEATURES - The funds may acquire securities that are subject to puts and
standby commitments ("demand features") to purchase the securities at their
principal amount at a fixed price (usually with accrued interest) within a
fixed period (usually seven days) following a demand by the funds. The purpose
of engaging in transactions involving puts is to maintain flexibility and
liquidity to permit the funds to meet redemption requests and remain as fully
invested as possible.
ASSET-BACKED SECURITIES - Asset-backed securities consist of securities secured
by company receivables, home equity loans, truck and auto loans, leases, credit
card receivables and other securities backed by other types of receivables or
other assets. These securities are generally pass-through securities, which
means that principal and interest payments on the underlying securities (less
servicing fees) are passed through to shareholders on a pro rata basis. These
securities involve prepayment risk, which is the risk that the underlying debt
will be refinanced or paid off prior to their maturities during periods of
declining interest rates. In that case, a portfolio manager may have to
reinvest the proceeds from the securities at a lower rate. Potential market
gains on a security subject to prepayment risk may be more limited than
potential market gains on a comparable security that is not subject to
prepayment risk. Under certain interest rate and prepayment rate scenarios, the
funds may fail to recoup fully their investment in asset-backed securities.
Asset-backed securities are commonly considered to be derivatives.
SHORT-TERM FUNDING AGREEMENTS - The funds may, in order to enhance yield, make
limited investments in short-term funding agreements issued by banks and highly
rated insurance companies. Short-term funding agreements issued by insurance
companies are sometimes referred to as Guaranteed Investment Contracts
("GICs"), while those issued by banks are referred to as Bank Investment
Contracts ("BICs"). Pursuant to such agreements, the funds make cash
contributions to a deposit account at a bank or insurance company. The bank or
insurance company then credits to the funds on a monthly basis guaranteed
interest at either a fixed, variable or floating rate. These contracts are
general obligations of the issuing bank or insurance company and are paid from
the general assets of the issuing entity. The funds will purchase short-term
funding agreements only from banks and insurance companies which, at the time
of purchase, are rated "A" or the equivalent by at least one NRSRO and have
assets of $1 billion or more. Generally, there is no active secondary market
in short-term funding agreements.
SECURITIES OF FOREIGN ISSUERS -- The funds may invest in securities of foreign
issuers to achieve income or capital appreciation. The funds also may invest in
commercial paper of foreign issuers and obligations of foreign branches of U.S.
banks, U.S. and London branches of foreign banks, and supranational entities
which are established through the joint participation of several governments
(e.g., the Asian Development Bank and the Inter-American Development Bank).
Securities of foreign issuers may include sponsored and unsponsored American
Depository Receipts ("ADRs"), which are securities typically issued by a U.S.
financial institution that evidence ownership interests in a pool of securities
issued by a foreign issuer. ADRs include American Depository Shares and New
York Shares. There may be less information available on the foreign issuers of
unsponsored ADRs than on the issuers of sponsored ADRs.
MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES--Mortgage-backed securities are debt obligations
secured by real estate loans and pools of loans. The funds may acquire
securities representing an interest in a pool of mortgage loans that are issued
or guaranteed by Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Mortgage-backed
securities may also be issued by non-governmental entities and may or may not
have private insurer guarantees of timely payments. The funds also may invest
in mortgage-backed securities issued by non-government entities, which consist
of Collateralized Mortgage Obligations ("CMOs") and Real Estate Mortgage
Investment Conduits ("REMICs"). Mortgage-backed securities are in most cases
"pass-through" instruments, through which the holder receives a share
24
<PAGE> 133
of all interest and principal payments from the mortgages underlying the
certificate. Because the prepayment characteristics of the underlying mortgages
vary, it is not possible to predict accurately the average life or realized
yield of a particular issue of pass-through certificates. During periods of
declining interest rates, prepayment of mortgages underlying mortgage-backed
securities can be expected to accelerate. When the mortgage obligations are
prepaid, the funds may have to reinvest in securities with a lower yield.
Moreover, prepayment of mortgages which underlie securities purchased at a
premium could result in capital losses.
STRIPPED MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES--The funds may, to enhance revenues or
hedge against interest rate risk, invest in stripped mortgage-backed securities
("SMBS"), which are derivative multiclass mortgage securities. The funds may
only invest in SMBS issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies
or instrumentalities. SMBS are usually structured with two classes that receive
different proportions of the interest and principal distributions from a pool
of mortgage assets. A common type of SMBS will have one class receiving all of
the interest from the mortgage assets ("IOs"), while the other class will
receive all of the principal ("POs"). If the underlying mortgage assets
experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, the funds may
fail to fully recoup their initial investments in these securities. Although
the market for such securities is increasingly liquid, certain SMBS may not be
readily marketable and will be considered illiquid for purposes of the funds'
limitations on investments in illiquid securities. The market value of the
Class A consisting entirely of principal payments generally is unusually
volatile in response to changes in interest rates.
MORTGAGE DOLLAR ROLLS--The funds may enter into mortgage "dollar rolls" in
which the funds sell securities for delivery in the current month and
simultaneously contract with the same counterpart to repurchase similar (same
type, coupon and maturity) but not identical securities on a specified future
date. The funds benefit to the extent of any difference between the price
received for the securities sold and the lower forward price for the future
purchase (often referred to as the "drop") or fee income plus the interest
earned on the cash proceeds of the securities sold until the settlement date of
the forward purchase. Unless such benefits exceed the income, capital
appreciation and gain or loss due to mortgage prepayments that would have been
realized on the securities sold as part of the mortgage dollar roll, the use of
this technique will diminish the investment performance of the funds compared
with what such performance would have been without the use of mortgage dollar
rolls.
FIXED RATE MORTGAGE LOANS--Generally, fixed rate mortgage loans eligible for
inclusion in a mortgage pool will bear simple interest at fixed annual rates
and have original terms to maturity ranging from 5 to 40 years. The funds may
invest in fixed rate mortgage loans that are privately issued and are not
issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government.
SECURITIES LENDING -- In order to generate additional income, the funds may
lend up to 33% of the securities in which they are invested pursuant to
agreements requiring that the loan be continuously secured by cash, securities
of the U.S. government or its agencies, shares of an investment trust or
mutual fund or any combination of cash and such securities as collateral equal
at all times to at least 100% of the market value plus accrued interest on the
securities lent. The funds will continue to receive interest on the securities
lent while simultaneously seeking to earn interest on the investment of cash
collateral in U.S. government securities, shares of an investment trust or
mutual fund, or other short-term, highly liquid investments. Collateral is
marked to market daily to provide a level of collateral at least equal to the
market value of the securities lent. There may be risks of delay in recovery of
the securities or even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of
the securities fail financially. However, loans will only be made to borrowers
deemed by the Adviser to be of good standing under guidelines established by
the Trust's Board of Trustees and when, in the judgment of the Adviser, the
consideration which can be earned currently from such securities loans
justifies the attendant risk. The funds will enter into loan arrangements only
with counterparties which the Adviser has deemed to be creditworthy under
guidelines established by the Board of Trustees. Loans are subject to
termination by the funds or the borrower at any time, and are therefore, not
considered to be illiquid investments.
RESTRICTED SECURITIES -- The funds may invest in commercial paper issued in
reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933. Section 4(2) commercial paper is restricted as to
disposition under Federal securities law and is generally sold to institutional
investors, such as the funds, who agree that they are purchasing the paper for
investment purposes and not with a view to public distribution.
VARIABLE AND FLOATING RATE INSTRUMENTS -- Certain of the obligations purchased
by the funds may carry variable or floating rates of interest, may involve a
conditional or unconditional demand feature and may include variable amount
master demand notes. The interest rates on these securities may be reset daily,
weekly, quarterly or some other reset period, and may have a floor or ceiling
on interest rate changes. There is a risk that the current interest rate on
such obligations may not accurately reflect existing market interest rates.
SECURITIES PURCHASED ON A WHEN-ISSUED BASIS AND FORWARD COMMITMENTS -- The
funds may purchase securities on a when-issued basis when deemed by the Adviser
to present attractive investment opportunities. When-issued securities are
purchased for delivery beyond the normal settlement date at a stated price and
yield, thereby involving the risk that the yield obtained will be less than
that available in the market at delivery. When the Adviser purchases a
when-issued security, the Custodian will set aside cash or liquid securities to
satisfy the purchase commitment. The funds generally will not pay for such
securities or earn interest on them until
25
<PAGE> 134
received. In a forward commitment transaction, the funds contract to purchase
securities for a fixed price at a future date beyond customary settlement time.
The funds are required to hold and maintain in a segregated account until the
settlement date, cash, U.S. government securities or liquid high-grade debt
obligations in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. Alternatively,
the funds may enter into offsetting contracts for the forward sale of other
securities that they own. The purchase of securities on a when-issued or
forward commitment basis involves a risk of loss if the value of the security
to be purchased declines prior to the settlement date
OPTIONS -- The funds may purchase and write (i.e., sell) call options and put
options on securities and indices, which options are traded on national
securities exchanges. A call option gives the purchaser the right to buy, and
obligates the writer of the option to sell, the underlying security at the
agreed upon exercise (or "strike") price during the option period. A put option
gives the purchaser the right to sell, and obligates the writer to buy, the
underlying security at the strike price during the option period. There are
risks associated with options transactions, including the following: (i) the
success of a hedging strategy may depend on the ability of the Adviser to
predict movements in the prices of the individual securities, fluctuations in
markets and movements in interest rates; (ii) there may be an imperfect or no
correlation between the changes in market value of the securities held by the
funds and the prices of options; (iii) there may not be a liquid secondary
market for options; and (iv) while the funds will receive a premium when they
write covered call options, they may not participate fully in a rise in the
market value of the underlying security. It is expected that the funds will
only engage in option transactions with respect to permitted investments and
related indices.
FUTURES CONTRACTS AND RELATED OPTIONS -- Certain of the funds may enter into
futures contracts, options on futures contracts, index futures and options
thereon that are traded on an exchange regulated by the Commodities Futures
Trading Commission ("CFTC") if, to the extent that such futures and options are
not for "bona fide hedging purposes" (as defined by the CFTC), the aggregate
initial margin and premiums on such positions (excluding the amount by which
options are in the money) do not exceed 5% of the funds' total assets at
current value. Options and futures can be volatile instruments, and involve
certain risks. If the Adviser applies a hedge at an inappropriate time or
judges interest rates incorrectly, options and futures strategies may lower a
fund's return. The funds could also experience losses if the prices of their
options and futures positions were poorly correlated with their other
instruments, or if they could not close out its positions because of an
illiquid secondary market.
SWAPS, CAPS AND FLOORS -- In order to protect the value of the funds from
interest rate fluctuations and to hedge against fluctuations in the floating
rate market in which the funds' investments are traded, the funds may enter
into swaps, caps, and floors on various securities (such as U.S. government
securities), securities indexes, interest rates, prepayment rates, foreign
currencies or other financial instruments or indexes, for both hedging and
non-hedging purposes. Swap contracts typically involve an exchange of
obligations by two sophisticated parties. For example, in an interest rate
swap, a fund may exchange with another party their respective rights to receive
interest, such as an exchange of fixed rate payments for floating rate
payments. Currency swaps involve the exchange of respective rights to make or
receive payments in specified currencies. Mortgage swaps are similar to
interest rate swaps in that they represent commitments to pay and receive
interest. The notional principal amount, however, is tied to a reference pool
or pools of mortgages.
Caps and floors are variations on swaps. The purchase of a cap entitles the
purchaser to receive a principal amount from the party selling the cap to the
extent that a specified index exceeds a predetermined interest rate or amount.
The purchase of an interest rate floor entitles the purchaser to receive
payments on a notional principal amount from the party selling the floor to the
extent that a specified index falls below a predetermined interest rate or
amount. Caps and floors are similar in many respects to over-the-counter
options transactions, and may involve investment risks that are similar to
those associated with options transactions and options on futures contracts.
NEW FINANCIAL PRODUCTS -- New options and futures contracts and other financial
products, and various combinations thereof, continue to be developed and the
funds may invest in any such options, contracts and products as may be
developed to the extent consistent with their investment objective, policies
and restrictions and the regulatory requirements applicable to investment
companies. These various products may be used to adjust the risk and return
characteristics of the funds' portfolio of investments. These various products
may increase or decrease exposure to security prices, interest rates, commodity
prices, or other factors that affect security values, regardless of the
issuer's credit risk. If market conditions do not perform consistent with
expectations, the performance of the funds would be less favorable than it
would have been if these products were not used. In addition, losses may occur
if counterparties involved in transactions do not perform as promised. These
products may expose the funds to potentially greater return as well as
potentially greater risk of loss than more traditional fixed-income
investments.
STRUCTURED INSTRUMENTS - Structured instruments are debt securities issued by
agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government (such as Sallie Mae,
Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac), banks, municipalities, corporations,
and other business entities whose interest and/or principal payments are
indexed to certain specific foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, or
one or more other reference indices. Structured instruments frequently are
assembled in the form of medium-term notes, but a variety of forms are
available. Structured instruments are commonly considered to be derivatives.
26
<PAGE> 135
While structured instruments may offer the potential for a favorable rate of
return from time to time, they also entail certain risks. Structured
instruments may be less liquid than other debt securities, and the price of
structured instruments may be more volatile. If the value of the reference
index changes in a manner other than that expected by the Adviser, principal
and/or interest payments on the structured instrument may be substantially less
than expected. In addition, although structured instruments may be sold in the
form of a corporate debt obligation, they may not have some of the protection
against counterparty default that may be available with respect to publicly
traded debt securities (i.e., the existence of a trust indenture).
MUNICIPAL SECURITIES - Municipal Securities are issued by a state or political
subdivision to obtain funds for various public purposes. Municipal securities
are generally classified as "general obligation" bonds and "revenue" bonds.
General obligation bonds are obligations involving the credit of an issuer
possessing taxing power and are payable from the issuer's general unrestricted
revenues. Revenue bonds are payable only from the revenues derived from a
particular facility or class of facilities or, in some cases, from the proceeds
of a special excise or other specific revenue source. Revenue bonds are not
payable from the issuer's general revenues. The funds also may purchase
short-term tax-exempt General Obligation Notes, Tax Anticipation Notes, Bond
Anticipation Notes, Revenue Anticipation Notes, Project Notes, and other forms
of short-term tax-exempt obligations. Such notes are issued with a short-term
maturity in anticipation of the receipt of tax funds, the proceeds of bond
placements, or other revenues.
An issuer's obligations under its municipal securities are subject to the
provisions of bankruptcy, insolvency, and other laws affecting the rights and
remedies of creditors, such as the federal bankruptcy code, and laws, if any,
which may be enacted by Congress or state legislatures extending the time for
payment of principal or interest, or both, or imposing other constraints upon
the enforcement of such obligations. The power or ability of an issuer to meet
its obligations for the payment of interest on and principal of its municipal
securities may be materially adversely affected by litigation or other
conditions. Such litigation or conditions may from time to time have the effect
of introducing uncertainties in the market for tax-exempt obligations or
certain segments thereof, or may materially affect the credit risk with respect
to particular bonds or notes. Adverse economic, business, legal or political
developments might affect all or a substantial portion of a fund's municipal
securities in the same manner. In addition, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code") imposes certain continuing requirements on issuers of
tax-exempt bonds regarding the use, expenditure and investment of bond proceeds
and the payment of rebates to the United States of America. Failure by the
issuer to comply subsequent to the issuance of tax-exempt bonds with certain of
these requirements could cause interest on the bonds to become includable in
gross income retroactive to the date of issuance.
INVERSE FLOATING RATE INSTRUMENTS -- The funds may seek to increase yield by
investing in leveraged inverse floating rate debt instruments ("inverse
floaters"). The interest rate on an inverse floater resets in the opposite
direction from the market rate of interest to which the inverse floater is
indexed. An inverse floater may be considered to be leveraged to the extent
that its interest rate varies by a magnitude that exceeds the magnitude of the
change in the index rate of interest. The higher degree of leverage inherent in
inverse floaters is associated with greater volatility in their market values.
Accordingly, the duration of an inverse floater may exceed its stated final
maturity.

DESCRIPTION OF COMMERCIAL PAPER RATINGS
The following descriptions of commercial paper ratings have been published by
Standard & Poor's Corporation ("S&P"), Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's"),
Fitch's Investors Service ("Fitch"), Duff and Phelps ("Duff"), and IBCA Limited
("IBCA"), respectively.
Commercial paper rated A by S&P is regarded by S&P as having the greatest
capacity for timely payment. Issues rated A are further refined by use of the
numbers 1+, 1 and 2 to indicate the relative degree of safety. Issues rated
A-1+ are those with an "overwhelming degree" of credit protection. Those rated
A-1 reflect a "very strong" degree of safety regarding timely payment. Those
rated A-2 reflect a high degree of safety regarding timely payment but not as
high as A-1.
Commercial paper issues rated Prime-1 and Prime-2 by Moody's are judged by
Moody's to be of the "highest" quality and "higher" quality, respectively, on
the basis of relative repayment capacity.
The rating Fitch-1 (Highest Grade) is the highest commercial rating assigned by
Fitch. Paper rated Fitch-1 is regarded as having the strongest degree of
assurance for timely payment. The rating Fitch-2 (Very Good Grade) is the
second highest commercial paper rating assigned by Fitch which reflects an
assurance of timely payment only slightly less in degree than the strongest
issues.
The rating Duff-1 is the highest commercial paper rating assigned by Duff.
Paper rated Duff-1 is regarded as having very high certainty of timely payment
with excellent liquidity factors which are supported by ample asset protection.
Risk factors are minor.

<PAGE> 136
Paper rated Duff-2 is regarded as having good certainty of timely payment, good
access to capital markets and sound liquidity factors and company fundamentals.
Risk factors are small.
The designation A1 by IBCA indicates that the obligation is supported by a very
strong capacity for timely repayment. Those obligations rated A1+ are supported
by the highest capacity for timely repayment. Obligations rated A2 are
supported by a strong capacity for timely repayment, although such capacity may
be susceptible to adverse changes in business, economic or financial
conditions.
DESCRIPTION OF CORPORATE/MUNICIPAL BOND RATINGS
The following descriptions of S&P's and Moody's corporate and municipal bond
ratings have been published by S&P and Moody's, respectively.
Standard & Poor's Rating Services
Investment Grade
- ----------------
Bonds rated AAA have the highest rating S&P assigns to a debt obligation. Such
a rating indicates an extremely strong capacity to pay principal and interest.
Bonds rated AA also qualify as high-quality debt obligations. Capacity to pay
principal and interest is very strong, and in the majority of instances they
differ from AAA issues only in a small degree. Debt rated A has a strong
capacity to pay interest and repay principal although it is somewhat more
susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic
conditions than debt in higher rated categories.
Bonds rated BBB by S&P are regarded as having an adequate capacity to pay
interest and repay principal. Whereas it normally exhibits adequate protection
parameters, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more
likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay interest and repay principal for
bonds in this category than in higher categories.
Non-Investment Grade
- --------------------
Bonds rated BB have less near-term vulnerability to default than other
speculative issues. However, they face major ongoing uncertainties or exposure
to adverse business, financial or economic conditions which could lead to
inadequate capacity to meet timely interest and principal payments. The BB
rated category is also used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied BBB rating.
Bonds rated B have a greater vulnerability to default but currently have the
capacity to meet interest payments and principal repayments. Adverse business,
financial or economic conditions will likely impair capacity or willingness to
pay interest and repay principal. The B rating category is also used for debt
subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an actual or implied BB or
BB-rating.
Bonds rated CCC have currently identifiable vulnerability to default, and are
dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions to meet
timely payment of interest and repayment of principal. In the event of adverse
business, financial, or economic conditions, they are not likely to have the
capacity to pay interest and repay principal. The CCC rating category is also
used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an actual or implied
B or B- rating.
The rating CC typically is applied to debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied CCC rating.
The rating C typically is applied to debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied CCC rating. The C rating may be used to cover a
situation where a bankruptcy petition has been filed, but debt service payments
are continued.
The rating C1 is reserved for income bonds on which no interest is being paid.
Bonds rated D are in payment default. The D rating category is used when
interest payments or principal payments are not made on the date due, even if
the applicable grace period has not expired, unless Standard & Poor believes
that such payments will be made during such grace period. The D rating also
will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition if debt service payments
are jeopardized.
Plus (+) or minus (-). Ratings from AA to CCC may be modified by the addition
of a plus or minus sign to show relative standing within the major rating
categories.

Moody's Investor Service, Inc.
Investment Grade
- ----------------
Bonds that are rated Aaa by Moody's are judged to be of the best quality. They
carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally referred to as
"gilt edge." Interest payments are protected by a large, or an exceptionally
stable, margin and principal is secure. While the various protective elements
are likely to change, such changes as can be visualized are most unlikely to
impair the fundamentally strong position of such issues. Bonds rated Aa by
Moody's are judged by Moody's to be of high quality by all standards. Together
with bonds rated Aaa, they comprise what are generally known as high-grade
bonds. They are rated lower than the best bonds because margins of protection
may not be as large as in Aaa securities or fluctuation of protective elements
may be of greater amplitude or there may be other elements present that make
the long-term risks appear somewhat larger than in Aaa securities. Bonds that
are rated A possess many favorable investment attributes and are to be
considered as upper-medium grade obligations. Factors giving security to
principal and interest are considered adequate, but elements may be present
which suggest a susceptibility to impairment sometime in the future.
Bonds that are rated Baa by Moody's are considered as medium-grade obligations
(i.e., they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured). Interest payments
and principal security appear adequate for the present but certain protective
elements may be lacking or may be characteristically unreliable over any great
length of time. Such bonds lack outstanding investment characteristics and in
fact have speculative characteristics as well.
Changes in economic conditions or other circumstances are more likely to lead
to a weakened capacity of the issuers of securities rated BBB or Baa to make
principal and interest payments than is the case with higher grade securities.
Non-Investment Grade
- --------------------
Bonds rated Ba are more uncertain and have speculative elements. The protection
of interest and principal payments is not well safeguarded during good and bad
times. Bonds rated B lack the characteristics of a desirable investment (i.e.,
potentially low assurance of timely interest and principal payments or
maintenance of other contract terms over time).
Bonds rated Caa have poor standing and may be in default. These bonds carry an
element of danger with respect to principal and interest payments. Bonds rated
Ca are speculative to a high degree and could be in default or have other
marked shortcomings. C is the lowest rating. Bonds in this category have
extremely poor prospects of ever attaining investment standing.
Unrated securities will be treated as non-investment grade securities unless
the Adviser determines that such securities are the equivalent of investment
grade securities. Securities that have received different ratings from more
than one agency are considered investment grade if at least one agency has
rated the security investment grade.
DESCRIPTION OF MUNICIPAL NOTE RATINGS
Moody's highest rating for state, municipal and other short-term notes is MIG-1
and VMIG-1. Short-term municipal securities rated MIG-1 or VMIG-1 are of the
best quality. They have strong protection from established cash flows of funds
for their servicing or from established and broad-based access to the market
for refinancing or both. Short-term municipal securities rated MIG-2 and VMIG-2
are of high quality. Margins of protection are ample although not so large as
in the preceding group.
An S&P note rating reflects the liquidity concerns and market access risks
unique to notes. Notes due in three years or less will likely receive a note
rating. Notes maturing beyond three years will most likely receive a long-term
debt rating. The following criteria will be used in making that assessment:
o Amortization schedule (the larger the final maturity relative to other
maturities the more likely it will be treated as a note).
o Source of Payment (the more dependent the issue is on the market for
its refinancing, the more likely it will be treated as a note).
Note rating symbols are as follows:
SP-1 Very strong or strong capacity to pay principal and interest. Those issues
determined to possess overwhelming safety characteristics will be given a plus
(+) designation.
SP-2 Satisfactory capacity to pay principal and interest.

MISCELLANEOUS
PERFORMANCE
From time to time, the Fund may advertise yield, total return and/or
distribution rate. These figures will be based on historical earnings and are
not intended to indicate future performance. The yield of the Fund refers to
the annualized income generated by an investment in the Fund over a specified
30-day period. The yield is calculated by assuming that the income generated by
the investment during that period is generated over a one-year period and is
shown as a percentage of the investment.
Total return is the change in value of an investment in the Fund over a given
period, assuming reinvestment of any dividends and capital gains. A cumulative
total return reflects an actual rate of return over a stated period of time. An
average annual total return is a hypothetical rate of return that, if achieved
annually, would have produced the same cumulative total return if performance
had been constant over the entire period. Average annual total returns smooth
out variations in performance; they are not the same as actual year-by-year
results.
The distribution rate is computed by dividing the total amount of the dividends
per share paid out during the past period by the maximum offering price or
month-end net asset value depending on the class of the Fund. This figure is
then "annualized" (multiplied by 365 days and divided by the applicable number
of days in the period). Funds with a front-end sales charge would incorporate
the offering price into the distribution yield in place of month-end net asset
value.
Distribution rate is a measure of the level of income paid out in cash to
Shareholders over a specified period. It differs from yield and total return
and is not intended to be a complete measure of performance. Furthermore, the
distribution rate may include return of principal and/or capital gains. Total
return is the change in value of a hypothetical investment over a given period
assuming reinvestment of dividends and capital gain distributions. The yield
refers to the cumulative 30-day rolling net investment income, divided by
maximum offering price and multiplied by average shares outstanding during this
period. See the Statement of Additional Information.
The Trust will include information on all classes of shares of the Fund in any
advertisement or information including performance data for the Fund. The
performance for Fiduciary Class shares may be higher than for Class A shares
and Class B shares because Fiduciary Class shares are not subject to sales
charges and distribution expenses.
The performance of each class of the Fund may from time to time be compared to
that of other mutual funds tracked by mutual fund rating services, to that of
broad groups of comparable mutual funds or to that of unmanaged indices that
may assume investment of dividends but do not reflect deductions for
administrative and management costs. In addition, the performance of each class
of the Fund may be compared to other funds or to relevant indices that may
calculate total return without reflecting sales charges; in which case, the
Fund may advertise its total return in the same manner. If reflected, sales
charges would reduce these total return calculations.
TAXES
The following summary of Federal income tax consequences is based on current
tax laws and regulations, which may be changed by legislative, judicial or
administrative action. No attempt has been made to present a complete
explanation of the Federal, state, local or foreign tax treatment of the Fund
or its Shareholders. Accordingly, Shareholders are urged to consult their tax
advisers regarding specific questions as to the tax consequences of investing
in the Fund.
TAX STATUS OF THE FUND
The Fund is treated as a separate entity for Federal income tax purposes and is
not combined with the Trust's other funds. The Fund intends to qualify as a
"regulated investment company" for Federal income tax purposes and to meet all
other requirements that are necessary for it to be relieved of Federal taxes on
that part of its net investment income and net capital gains (the excess of net
long-term capital gain over net short-term capital loss) that is distributed to
Shareholders.
TAX STATUS OF DISTRIBUTIONS
The Fund will distribute substantially all of its net investment income
(including, for this purpose, net short-term capital gain) to Shareholders of
each class of shares of the Fund on at least an annual basis. Generally,
dividends from net investment income will be taxable to Shareholders as
ordinary income whether received in cash or in additional shares, and any net
capital gains will be distributed at least annually and will be taxed to
Shareholders as long-term capital gains, regardless of how long the Shareholder
has held shares.
30
<PAGE> 139
Distributions by the Fund to retirement plans that qualify for tax-exempt
treatment under the Code ("qualified retirement plans") will not be taxable.
The Federal tax treatment of qualified retirement plans, as well as
distributions from such plans, is governed by specific provisions of the Code.
If shares are held by a retirement plan that ceases to qualify for tax-exempt
treatment under the Code or by an individual who has received such shares as a
distribution from a retirement plan, the Fund's distributions will be taxable
to such plan or individual as described in the preceding paragraph. Persons
considering directing the investment of their qualified retirement plan account
in the Fund and qualified retirement plan trusts considering purchasing such
shares, should consult their tax advisers for a more complete explanation of
the Federal tax consequences, and for an explanation of the state, local and
(if applicable) foreign tax consequences of making such an investment.
The Fund will make annual reports to Shareholders of the Federal income tax
status of all distributions.
Certain securities purchased by the Fund (such as STRIPS, CUBES, TRS, TIGRS and
CATS), as defined in the "Description of Permitted Investments," are sold at
original issue discount and thus do not make periodic cash interest payments.
The Fund will be required to include as part of its current income the imputed
interest on such obligations even though the Fund has not received any interest
payments on such obligations during that period. Because the Fund distributes
substantially all of its net investment income to its Shareholders (including
such imputed interest), the Fund may have to sell portfolio securities in order
to generate the cash necessary for the required distributions. Such sales may
occur at a time when the Adviser would not have chosen to sell such securities
and may result in a taxable gain or loss.
Dividends declared by the Fund in October, November or December of any year and
payable to Shareholders of record on a date in such a month will be deemed to
have been paid by the Fund and received by Shareholders on December 31 of that
year, if paid by the Fund at any time during the following January.
The Fund intends to make sufficient distributions prior to the end of each
calendar year to avoid liability for Federal excise tax.
Dividends received by a Shareholder that are derived from the Fund's
investments in U.S. government obligations may not be entitled to the
exemptions from state and local income taxes that would be available if the
Shareholder had purchased U.S. government obligations directly. The Fund will
inform Shareholders annually of the percentage of income and distributions
derived from U.S. government obligations. Shareholders should consult their tax
advisers regarding the state and local tax treatment of the dividends received
from the Fund.
The Fund may be subject to foreign withholding taxes on income derived from
obligations of foreign issuers. The Fund will not be able to elect to treat
Shareholders as having paid their proportionate share of such foreign taxes.
Sale, exchange or redemption of Fund shares by a Shareholder will generally be
a taxable event to such Shareholder.

(1) A person who purchases shares through an account with a financial
institution or broker/dealer may be charged separate transaction fees
by the financial institution or broker/dealer. In addition, a wire
redemption charge, currently $7.00, is deducted from the amount of a
wire redemption payment made at the request of a Shareholder.
(2) A person who purchases $1 million or more of Class A shares and is not
assessed a sales charge at the time of purchase, will be assessed a
sales charge equivalent to 1% of the purchase price if such purchaser
redeems any or all of the Class A shares prior to the first
anniversary of purchase.
(3) Absent the voluntary waiver of fees under the Trust's Distribution and
Shareholder Services Plan, 12b-1 fees (as a percentage of average daily
net assets) would be .35% for Class A shares. The 12b-1 fees include a
Shareholder servicing fee of .25% of average daily net assets of the
Fund's Class B shares and may include a Shareholder servicing fee of
.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Class A shares. See
"The Distributor."
(4) Absent the voluntary 12b-1 fee waiver, Total Operating Expenses for
Class A shares would be .85%.
The Fund will indirectly bear its pro rata share of fees and expenses incurred
by the Underlying Funds and the investment returns of the Fund will be net of
the expenses of the Underlying Funds. The following chart provides the expense
ratio for each of the Underlying Funds in which the Fund invests (based on the
current Underlying Fund Prospectus). Certain of these expense ratios may
include a voluntary reduction in investment advisory fees.

The One Group(R) Income Equity Fund 1.05%
The One Group(R) Equity Index Fund .31%
</TABLE>
After combining the total operating expenses of the Fund with those of the
Underlying Funds, the estimated average weighted expense ratio for Class A
shares is 1.66%, for Class B shares is 2.41% and for Fiduciary Class shares is
1.41%.

On the basis of these estimated expenses, the following example illustrates the
expenses an investor would pay on a $1,000 investment in Class A and Fiduciary
Class shares of the Fund, assuming: (1) imposition of the maximum sales charge
for Class A shares; (2) 5% annual return; and (3) redemption at the end of each
time period.

THE FUND
The One Group(R) Investor Aggressive Growth Fund ( the "Fund") is part of The
One Group(R) (the "Trust"), which is an open-end management investment company
that offers shares in 39 separate funds and different classes of certain of the
funds. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts Business Trust on May 23,
1985. This Prospectus relates to Class A, Class B, and Fiduciary Class shares
of The One Group(R) Investor Aggressive Growth Fund. Each class of shares
provides for variations in distribution costs, voting rights, dividends and per
share net asset value pursuant to a multiple class plan (the "Multiple Class
Plan") adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Trust. Except for these
differences between classes, each share of the Fund represents an undivided,
proportionate interest in the Fund. The Fund is a non-diversified mutual fund
because it invests in the securities of a limited number of Underlying Funds.
However, the Underlying Funds are diversified investment companies. The
Information regarding the Trust's other funds and their classes is contained in
separate prospectuses which may be obtained from the Trust's Distributor, The
One Group(R) Services Company, 3435 Stelzer Road, Columbus, OH 43219, or by
calling 1-800-480-4111.

The Fund and the Underlying Funds are permitted for temporary defensive
purposes to invest up to 100% of their assets in short-term fixed income
securities. Such securities include obligations of the U.S. government and its
agencies and instrumentalities; commercial paper, bank certificates of deposit,
repurchase agreements, bankers acceptances, variable amount master demand notes
and bank money market deposit accounts. The Fund and the Underlying Funds may
also hold cash for liquidity purposes.
To the extent the Fund or the Underlying Funds are engaged in a temporary
defensive position, they will not be pursuing their investment objective.
DESCRIPTION OF THE UNDERLYING FUNDS
The following is a brief description of the principal investment policies of
the Underlying Funds. Additional investment practices are described in
"Investment Policies of the Underlying Funds," the Statement of Additional
Information and the prospectus for each of the Underlying Funds.
The One Group(R) International Equity Index Fund
The One Group(R) International Equity Index Fund is an equity fund. The
objective of the fund is to provide investment results that correspond to the
aggregate price and dividend performance of the securities in the Gross
Domestic Product Weighted Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe,
Australia and Far East Index ("MSCI EAFE GDP Index" or "EAFE GDP Index")(1)
Under normal conditions, the fund will invest substantially all of its assets
in foreign securities and at least 65% of the value of its total assets in
foreign equity securities, consisting of common stocks (including sponsored and
unsponsored American Depository Receipts ("ADRs")) and preferred stocks,
securities convertible into common stocks (only if they are listed on
registered exchanges or actively traded in the over-the-counter market),
warrants and depository receipts for such securities of issuers located in at
least three different countries. In attempting to duplicate the capital
performance and dividend income of the MSCI EAFE GDP Index, the fund will
normally invest in the stocks which comprise the Index and secondarily in stock
index futures. It is expected that cash reserve items normally will not exceed
10% of the fund's net assets. The fund may invest up to 10% of its net assets
in

Capital International, which does not sponsor and is in no way

securities of emerging international markets such as Mexico, Brazil and Chile.
A substantial portion of the fund's assets will be denominated in foreign
currencies.
The One Group(R) Large Company Growth Fund
The One Group(R) Large Company Growth Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation
and growth of income by investing primarily in equity securities. To achieve
its objective, the fund will, under normal market conditions, invest
substantially all, but in no event less than 65%, of the value of its total
assets in equity securities consisting of common stocks, warrants and any
rights to purchase common stocks. The weighted average capitalization of the
companies in which the fund invests will under normal market conditions always
be in excess of the market median capitalization of the Standard & Poor's 500
Composite Stock Price Index ("S&P 500 Index")(2) The fund may invest the
remainder of its assets in any combination of nonconvertible fixed income
securities, repurchase agreements, options and futures contracts.
The One Group(R) Large Company Value Fund
The One Group(R) Large Company Value Fund is an equity fund that seeks capital
appreciation with the incidental goal of achieving current income by investing
primarily in equity securities. The fund will invest in equity securities of
companies that are believed to be selling below their long-term intrinsic
investment values. Companies held will typically be large capitalization
issuers with current price/earnings and/or price/book ratios which are lower
than that of the general market as measured by the S&P 500 Index. In addition,
the fund may invest in stock of companies which have been analyzed to have
breakup values well in excess of current market values or which have uniquely
undervalued corporate assets. The general approach to purchasing stocks will
emphasize individual security selection. Macroeconomic data and industry profit
forecasts will be utilized to gauge the best sectors of the economy in which to
be positioned.
Under normal market conditions, the fund will invest at least 80% of the value
of its total assets in equity securities consisting of common stocks and debt
securities and preferred stocks which are convertible into common stocks. The
fund also may enter into options and futures transactions. The remainder of the
fund's assets will be held in cash equivalents.
The One Group(R) Growth Opportunities Fund
The One Group(R) Growth Opportunities Fund seeks growth of capital and,
secondarily, current income by investing primarily in equity securities. The
fund will invest in issues which are identified and selected based on the
potential to produce above-average earnings growth per share over a
one-to-three year period. It is expected that issuers will generally include
established companies with a history of above-average growth or companies that
are expected to enter periods of above-average growth, and smaller companies
which are positioned in emerging growth industries. The fund may invest in
securities listed on a stock exchange as well as those traded over-the-counter.
At least 80% of the value of the fund's total assets will, under normal
conditions, be invested in equity securities consisting of common stocks and
debt securities and preferred stocks that are convertible into common stocks.
The fund also may enter into options and futures transactions. The remainder of
the fund's assets will be held in cash equivalents.
The One Group(R) Value Growth Fund
The One Group(R) Value Growth Fund seeks long-term capital growth and growth of
income while, as a secondary objective providing a moderate level of current
income. The fund pursues its objectives by investing primarily in a portfolio
of common stocks, debt securities, preferred stocks, convertible securities,
warrants, and other equity securities of companies that show the potential for
growth of earnings over time. Stock selection is guided by current valuation
relative to a stock's historical valuation and relative to the Adviser's
estimates of future growth of earnings and dividends. Accordingly, the fund may
emphasize securities of companies that the Adviser believes are overlooked or
undervalued by investors, which fact should contribute to an increase in the
market value of the security over time.
The fund will ordinarily invest at least 65% of the value of its total assets
in securities with the characteristics described above. Although the fund
intends to invest all of its assets in such securities, up to 35% of its total
assets may be held in cash or invested in U.S. Government Securities, other
investment grade fixed-income securities and cash equivalents.

<PAGE> 151
The One Group(R) Gulf South Growth Fund
The One Group(R) Gulf South Growth Fund seeks long-term capital growth by
investing in a portfolio of equity securities of small capitalization, emerging
growth and medium capitalization companies, which are either headquartered in
or whose primary market is in the southeastern region of the United States. The
fund invests primarily in a portfolio of common stocks, debt securities,
preferred stocks, convertible securities, warrants and other equity securities
of such companies. The Adviser anticipates that the fund's portfolio will
normally consist of securities of approximately twenty-five to sixty emerging
growth companies from Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida,
Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana, Kentucky and
Texas. It is expected that companies selected would generally have market
capitalizations ranging from $50,000,000 to $2,000,000,000, although the fund
may occasionally hold securities of companies whose market capitalizations are
considerably larger if doing so contributes to the fund's investment objective.
The fund will normally invest at least 65% of the value of its total assets in
securities with the characteristics described above. Although the fund intends
to invest all of its assets in such securities, up to 35% of its total assets
may be held in cash or invested in U.S. Government Securities, other investment
grade fixed-income securities and cash equivalents, when the Adviser's
assessment of the attractiveness of the entire stock market and individual
market sectors changes.
Because the fund is non-diversified, its share price may be subject to greater
fluctuations as a result of changes in an issuer's financial condition or the
market's assessment of an individual issuer. In addition, smaller, less
seasoned companies may be subject to greater business risk than larger,
established companies.
The One Group(R) Income Equity Fund
The One Group(R) Income Equity Fund seeks current income through regular
payment of dividends with the secondary goal of achieving capital appreciation
by investing primarily in equity securities. The fund will make investments in
an attempt to keep its yield above the S&P 500 Index. Achieving such a yield
will be the primary consideration in selecting securities. Investments will be
made in common stocks of corporations which regularly pay dividends, although
continued payment of dividends cannot be assured. The fund will invest
primarily in stocks with favorable, long-term fundamental characteristics, but
stocks of companies that are out of favor in the financial community may also
be purchased.
The fund will under normal conditions invest at least 80% of the value of its
total assets in equity securities consisting of common stocks, and debt
securities and preferred stocks which are convertible into common stocks. The
fund also may enter into options and futures transactions. The balance of the
fund's assets will be held in cash equivalents.
The One Group(R) Equity Index Fund
The One Group(R) Equity Index Fund seeks investment results that correspond to
the aggregate price and dividend performance of the securities on the S&P 500
Index. The fund will, in attempting to duplicate the capital performance and
dividend income of the S&P 500 Index, normally invest in many of the stocks
which comprise the S&P 500 Index and secondarily in stock index futures. Cash
reserves will not normally exceed 10% of the fund's net assets.
The Adviser generally selects stocks for the fund in the order of their
weightings in the S&P 500 Index beginning with the heaviest weighted stocks.
The percentage of the fund's assets to be invested in each stock is
approximately the same as the percentage it represents in the S&P 500 Index.
From time to time, administrative adjustments may be made in the fund because
of changes in the composition of the S&P 500 Index, but such changes should be
infrequent. The fund will attempt to achieve a correlation between the
performance of its portfolio and that of the S&P 500 Index of at least 0.95,
without taking into account expenses. A correlation of 1.00 would indicate
perfect correlation, which would be achieved when the fund's net asset value,
including the value of its dividend and capital gains distributions, increases
or decreases in exact proportion to changes in the S&P 500 Index.
The One Group(R) Prime Money Market Fund
The One Group(R) Prime Money Market Fund seeks current income with liquidity
and stability of principal. The fund intends to comply with the regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to money market funds using
the amortized cost method for calculating net asset value. These regulations
impose certain quality, maturity and diversification restraints on investments
by the fund. Under these regulations, the fund will invest only in U.S.
dollar-denominated securities, will maintain an average maturity on a
dollar-weighted basis of 90 days or less, and will acquire only "eligible
securities" that present minimal credit risks and have a maturity of 397 days
or less.

<PAGE> 152
RISK FACTORS
The investments of the Fund are concentrated in the Underlying Funds, so the
Fund's investment performance is directly related to the performance of the
Underlying Funds. In addition, as a matter of fundamental policy, the Fund must
allocate its investments among the Underlying Funds within certain ranges. As a
result, the Fund does not have the same flexibility to invest as a mutual fund
without such constraints.
The Fund may invest in Underlying Funds which invest in medium or lower grade
bonds. If these bonds are downgraded, the Adviser will consider whether to
increase or decrease the Fund's investment in the affected Underlying Fund.
Further, the Fund may invest in Underlying Funds which concentrate their assets
in certain industries. Under certain circumstances, this could result in the
Fund being concentrated in those industries. If this were to occur, the Adviser
would consider whether to maintain or change the Fund's investments in such
Underlying Funds.
Special Risks of Investing in Equity Funds
Changes in the value of an equity fund's portfolio securities will not affect
cash income, if any, derived from these securities but will affect the fund's
net asset value. Because equity funds invest primarily in equity securities,
which fluctuate in value, the funds' shares will fluctuate in value. In
addition, certain investment management techniques that the funds may use, such
as the purchase and sale of futures, options and forward commitments, could
expose the funds to potentially greater risk of loss than more traditional
equity investments.
Special Risks of Investing in Index Funds
Because of the funds' investment objectives, securities may be purchased,
retained and sold by the funds when such transactions would not be consistent
with traditional investment criteria. Accordingly, an investor is exposed to a
greater risk of loss (and a correspondingly greater prospect of gain) from
fluctuations in the value of such securities than would be the case if the
funds were not fully invested in such securities. In addition, the Adviser may
eliminate one or more securities or elect not to increase the funds' position
in such securities notwithstanding the continued listing of such securities on
the relevant index in the following circumstances: (i) the stock is no longer
publicly traded; or (ii) an unexpected adverse development occurs with respect
to a company such as bankruptcy or insolvency. As a result of these risk
factors, the share price of an index fund is expected to be volatile, and
investors should be able to sustain sudden, sometimes substantial, fluctuations
in the value of their investment.
Special Risks of Foreign Securities
Investments in securities of foreign issuers involve risks that are different
from investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These risks may include future
unfavorable political and economic developments, possible withholding taxes,
seizure of foreign deposits, currency controls, higher transaction costs, and
delayed settlements of transactions. Securities of some foreign companies are
less liquid, and their prices more volatile, than securities of comparable U.S.
companies. Additionally, there may be less public information available about
foreign issuers. Finally, since the funds may invest in securities denominated
in foreign currencies, changes in exchange rates may affect the value of
investments in the funds.
Special Risks of Small Capitalization Companies
Smaller, less seasoned companies may be subject to greater business risk than
larger, established companies. They may be more vulnerable to changes in
economic conditions, specific industry conditions, market fluctuations and
other factors affecting the profitability of companies. Therefore, the stock
price of smaller capitalization companies may be subject to greater price
fluctuations than that of larger, established companies. Due to these and other
risk factors, the price movement of the securities held by the funds may be
volatile and the net asset value of shares of the funds may fluctuate.
Special Risks of Mortgage Related Securities
Some of the funds invest in mortgage-related securities, such as
mortgage-backed securities, adjustable rate mortgage loans ("ARMs"), fixed rate
mortgage loans, and mortgage dollar rolls. The investment characteristics of
mortgage related securities differ from traditional debt securities. These
differences can result in significantly greater price and yield volatility than
is the case with traditional fixed-income securities. The major differences
typically include more frequent interest and principal payments, usually
monthly, the adjustability of interest rates, and the possibility that
prepayments of principal may be made at any time. Prepayment rates are
influenced by changes in current interest rates and a variety of economic,
geographic, social, and other factors. During periods of declining interest
rates, prepayment rates can be expected to accelerate. Under certain interest
rate and prepayment rate scenarios, a fund may fail to recoup fully its
investment in mortgage-related securities notwithstanding
9
<PAGE> 153
a direct or indirect governmental or agency guarantee. The funds intend to use
hedging techniques to control this risk. In general, changes in the rate of
prepayments on a mortgage-related security will change that security's market
value and its yield to maturity. When interest rates fall, high prepayments
could force a fund to reinvest principal at a time when investment
opportunities are not attractive. Thus, mortgage-related securities may not be
an effective means for a fund to lock in long-term interest rates. Conversely,
during periods when interest rates rise, slow prepayments could cause the
average life of the security to lengthen and the value to decline more than
anticipated.
HOW TO DO BUSINESS WITH
THE ONE GROUP(R)
HOW TO INVEST IN THE ONE GROUP(R)
Shares of the Fund are sold on a continuous basis and may be purchased directly
from the Trust's Distributor, The One Group(R) Services Company, by mail, by
telephone, or by wire. Shares may also be purchased through a financial
institution, such as a bank, savings and loan association or insurance company
(each a "Shareholder Servicing Agent"), that has established a Shareholder
servicing agreement with the Distributor, or through a broker-dealer that has
established a dealer agreement with the Distributor.
Purchases and redemptions of shares of the Fund may be made on any day that the
New York Stock Exchange is open for trading ("Business Days"). The minimum
initial and subsequent investments in the Fund are $ 1,000 and $100
respectively ($100 and $25, respectively, for employees of BANC ONE CORPORATION
and its affiliates). Initial and subsequent investment minimums may be waived
at the Distributor's discretion. Investors may purchase up to a maximum of
$250,000 of Class B shares per individual purchase order.
Class A shares are offered to IRA account participants and other long-term
investors. Class B shares are offered to investors in certain retirement plans
such as 401(k) and similar qualified plans. Fiduciary Class shares are offered
to institutional investors, including affiliates of BANC ONE CORPORATION and
any bank, depository institution, insurance company, pension plan or other
organization authorized to act in fiduciary, advisory, agency, custodial or
similar capacities (each an "Authorized Financial Organization"). For
additional details regarding eligibility, call the Distributor at
1-800-480-4111.
BY MAIL
Investors may purchase Class A and Class B shares of the Fund by completing and
signing an Account Application Form and mailing it, along with a check (or
other negotiable bank instrument or money order) payable to "The One Group(R),"
to State Street Bank and Trust Company (the Trust's Transfer Agent and
Custodian), P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500. Subsequent purchases of
shares may be made at any time by mailing a check to the Transfer Agent.
Account Application Forms are available through the Distributor by calling
1-800-480-4111.
Purchases of Fiduciary Class shares, and Class B shares that are being offered
to investors in certain retirement plans such as 401(k) and similar plans,
other than Individual Retirement Accounts, are made by an institutional
investor and/or other intermediary on behalf of an investor (each also a
"Shareholder Servicing Agent"). The Shareholder Servicing Agent may require an
investor to complete forms in addition to the Account Application Form and to
follow procedures established by the Shareholder Servicing Agent. Such
Shareholders should contact their Shareholder Servicing Agents regarding
purchases, exchanges and redemptions of shares. See "Additional Information
Regarding Purchases."
BY TELEPHONE OR BY WIRE
Once an Account Application Form has been received, Shareholders are eligible
to make purchases by telephone or wire (if that option has been selected by a
Shareholder) by calling the Transfer Agent at 1-800-480-4111 or the Shareholder
Servicing Agents, if applicable.
Shareholders may revoke their automatic eligibility to make purchases and/or
redemptions by telephone or by wire, by sending a letter so stating to the
Transfer Agent, State Street Bank and Trust Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA
02266-8500.
SYSTEMATIC INVESTMENT PLAN
10
<PAGE> 154
Class A and Class B investors may make automatic monthly investments in the
Fund from their bank, savings and loan or other depository institution
accounts. The minimum initial and subsequent investments must be $25 under the
Systematic Investment Plan, which minimum may be waived at the discretion of
the Distributor. The Trust pays the costs associated with these transfers, but
reserves the right, upon thirty days' written notice, to impose reasonable
charges for this service. A depository institution may impose a charge for
debiting an investor's account which would reduce the investor's return from an
investment in the Fund.
FUND-DIRECT IRA
The Trust offers a tax-advantaged retirement plan for which the Fund may be an
appropriate investment. The Trust's retirement plan allows participants to
defer taxes while helping them build their retirement savings.
The One Group Fund-Direct IRA is a retirement plan with a wide choice of
investments offering people with earned income the opportunity to compound
earnings on a tax-deferred basis. An IRA Adoption Agreement may be obtained by
calling the Distributor at 1-800-480-4111.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING PURCHASES
A purchase order will be effective as of the day received by the Distributor if
the Distributor receives the order before 4:00 p.m., eastern time. However, an
order may be cancelled if the Transfer Agent does not receive Federal funds
before close of business on the next Business Day for Fiduciary Class shares,
and before the close of business on the third Business Day for Class A and
Class B shares, and the investor could be liable for any fees or expenses
incurred by the Trust. Federal funds are monies credited to a bank's account
with a Federal Reserve Bank. The purchase price of shares of the Fund is the
net asset value next determined after a purchase order is effected plus any
applicable sales charge (the "offering price"). The net asset value per share
of the Fund is determined by dividing the total market value of the Fund's
investments and other assets allocable to a class, less any liabilities
allocable to that class, by the total number of outstanding shares of such
class. Net asset value per share is determined daily as of 4:00 p.m., eastern
time, on each Business Day. For a further discussion of the calculation of net
asset value, see the Statement of Additional Information. Shares may also be
issued in transactions involving the acquisition by the Fund of securities held
by collective investment funds sponsored and administered by affiliates of the
Adviser. Purchases will be made in full and fractional shares of the Fund
calculated to three decimal places. Although the methodology and procedures are
identical, the net asset value per share of classes within the Fund may differ
because the distribution expenses charged to Class A shares and Class B shares
are not charged to Fiduciary Class shares.
The Trust reserves the right to reject a purchase order when the Distributor
determines that it is not in the best interest of the Trust and/or its
Shareholders to accept such order. Except as provided below, neither the
Trust's Transfer Agent nor the Trust will be responsible for any loss,
liability, cost or expense for acting upon telephone or wire instructions, and
the investor will bear all risk of loss. The Trust will employ reasonable
procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine,
including requiring a form of personal identification prior to acting upon
instructions received by telephone and recording telephone instructions. If
such procedures are not employed, the Trust may be liable for any losses due to
unauthorized or fraudulent instructions.
Fiduciary Class shares offered to institutional investors and to investors in
certain retirement plans, Class A shares offered to IRA account participants
and Class B shares that are offered to investors in certain retirement plans
such as 401(k) and similar plans, other than Individual Retirement Accounts,
will normally be held in the name of the Shareholder Servicing Agent effecting
the purchase on the Shareholder's behalf, and it is the Shareholder Servicing
Agent's responsibility to transmit purchase orders to the Distributor. A
Shareholder Servicing Agent may impose an earlier cut-off time for receipt of
purchase orders directed through it to allow for processing and transmittal of
these orders to the Distributor for effectiveness the same day. The Shareholder
should contact his or her Shareholder Servicing Agent for information as to the
Shareholder Servicing Agents procedures for transmitting purchase, exchange or
redemption orders to the Trust. A Shareholder who desires to transfer the
registration of shares beneficially owned by him or her, but held of record by
a Shareholder Servicing Agent, should contact the Shareholder Servicing Agent
to accomplish such change. Other Shareholders who desire to transfer the
registration of their shares should contact the Transfer Agent.
No certificates representing shares of the Fund will be issued. In
communications to Shareholders, the Fund will not duplicate mailings of Fund
material to Shareholders who reside at the same address.
SALES CHARGE
The following table shows the initial sales charge on Class A shares to a
"single purchaser" (defined below) together with the sales charge reallowed to
financial institutions and intermediaries (the "commission"):

</TABLE>
The commissions shown in the table apply to sales through financial
institutions and intermediaries. Under certain circumstances, the Distributor
will use its own funds to compensate financial institutions and intermediaries
in amounts that are additional to the commissions shown above. The maximum cash
compensation payable by the Distributor as a sales charge is 3.00% of the
offering price (including the commission shown above and additional cash
compensation described below). In addition, the Distributor will, from time to
time and at its own expense, provide promotional incentives to financial
institutions and intermediaries, whose registered representatives have sold or
are expected to sell significant amounts of the shares of the Fund in the form
of payment for travel expenses, including lodging, incurred in connection with
trips taken by qualifying registered representatives to places within or
outside the United States, and additional compensation in an amount up to 1.00%
of the offering price of Class A shares of the Fund for sales of $1 million to
$5 million, and 0.50% for sales over $5 million. A Shareholder who purchases $1
million or more of Class A shares and is not assessed a sales charge at the
time of purchase, will be assessed a sales charge equivalent to 1% of the
purchase price if such Shareholder redeems any or all of the Class A shares
prior to the first anniversary of purchase. Under certain circumstances,
commissions up to the amount of the entire sales charge will be reallowed to
financial institutions and intermediaries, which might then be deemed to be
"underwriters" under the Securities Act of 1933.
RIGHT OF ACCUMULATION
In calculating the sales charge rates applicable to current purchases of Class
A shares, a "single purchaser" is entitled to cumulate current purchases with
the current value at the offering price of previously purchased Class A and
Class B shares of the Fund and other eligible funds of the Trust, other than
the Trust's money market funds, that are sold subject to a comparable sales
charge.
The term "single purchaser" refers to (i) an individual, (ii) an individual and
spouse purchasing shares of the Fund for their own account or for trust or
custodial accounts for their minor children, or (iii) a fiduciary purchasing
for any one trust, estate or fiduciary account, including employee benefit
plans created under Sections 401 or 457 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code"), and including related plans of the same employer. To
be entitled to a reduced sales charge based upon shares already owned, the
investor must ask the Distributor for such reduction at the time of purchase
and provide the account number(s) of the investor, the investor and spouse, and
their minor children, and give the age of such children. The Fund may amend or
terminate this right of accumulation at any time as to subsequent purchases.
LETTER OF INTENT
By initially investing at least $2,000 in Class A shares of one or more funds
that impose a comparable sales charge over the next 13 months, the sales charge
may be reduced by completing the Letter of Intent section of the Account
Application Form. The Letter of Intent includes a provision for a sales charge
adjustment depending on the amount actually purchased within the 13- month
period. In addition, pursuant to a Letter of Intent, the Custodian will hold in
escrow the difference between the sales charge applicable to the amount
initially purchased and the sales charge paid at the time of investment, which
is based on the amount covered by the Letter of Intent.
For example, assume an investor signs a Letter of Intent to purchase $250,000
in Class A shares of one (or more) of the funds of the Trust that imposes a
comparable sales charge and, at the time of signing the Letter of Intent,
purchases $100,000 of Class A shares of one of these funds. The investor would
pay an initial sales charge of 2.00% (the sales charge applicable to purchases
of $250,000) and .50% of the investment (representing the difference between
the 2.50% sales charge applicable to purchases of $100,000 and the 2.50% sales
charge already paid) would be held in escrow until the investor has purchased
the remaining $150,000 or more in Class A shares under the investor's Letter of
Intent.
12
<PAGE> 156
The amount held in escrow will be applied to the investor's account at the end
of the 13-month period unless the amount specified in the Letter of Intent is
not purchased. In order to qualify for a Letter of Intent, the investor will be
required to make a minimum purchase of at least $2,000.
The Letter of Intent will not obligate the investor to purchase Class A shares,
but if he or she does, each purchase during the period will be at the sales
charge applicable to the total amount intended to be purchased. The Letter of
Intent may be dated as of a prior date to include any purchases made within the
past 90 days.
OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES
No sales charge is imposed on Class A shares of the Fund: (i) issued through
reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions; (ii) acquired
through the exercise of exchange privileges where a comparable sales charge has
been paid for exchanged shares; (iii) purchased by officers, directors or
trustees, retirees and employees (and their spouses and immediate family
members) of the Trust, of BANC ONE CORPORATION and its subsidiaries and
affiliates, of the Distributor and its subsidiaries and affiliates, or of an
investment sub-adviser of a fund of the Trust and such sub-adviser's
subsidiaries and affiliates; (iv) sold to affiliates of BANC ONE CORPORATION
and certain accounts (other than Individual Retirement Accounts) for which
Authorized Financial Organizations act in fiduciary, advisory, agency,
custodial or similar capacities, or purchased by investment advisers, financial
planners or other intermediaries who have a dealer arrangement with the
Distributor, who place trades for their own accounts or for the accounts of
their clients and who charge a management, consulting or other fee for their
services, as well as clients of such investment advisers, financial planners or
other intermediaries who place trades for their own accounts if the accounts
are linked to the master account of such investment adviser, financial planner
or other intermediary; (v) purchased with proceeds from the recent redemption
of Fiduciary Class shares of a fund of the Trust or acquired in an exchange of
Fiduciary Class shares of a fund for Class A shares of the same fund; (vi)
purchased with proceeds from the recent redemption of shares of a mutual fund
(other than a fund of the Trust) for which a sales charge was paid; (vii)
purchased in an Individual Retirement Account with the proceeds of a
distribution from an employee benefit plan, provided that, at the time of
distribution, the employee benefit plan had plan assets invested in a fund of
the Trust; (viii) purchased with Trust assets; (ix) purchased in accounts as to
which a bank or broker-dealer charges an asset allocation fee, provided the
bank or broker-dealer has an agreement with the Distributor; (x) directly
purchased with the proceeds of a distribution on a bond for which a BANC ONE
CORPORATION affiliate bank or trust company is the Trustee or Paying Agent; or
(xi) purchased in connection with plans of reorganization of the Fund, such as
mergers, asset acquisitions and exchange offers to which the Fund is a party.
An investor relying upon any of the categories of waivers of the sales charge
must qualify for such waiver in advance of the purchase with the Distributor or
the financial institution or intermediary through which shares are purchased by
the investor.
The waiver of the sales charge under circumstances (v), (vi), and (vii) above
applies only if the purchase is made within 60 days of the redemption or
distribution and if conditions imposed by the Distributor are met. The waiver
policy with respect to the purchase of shares through the use of proceeds from
a recent redemption or distribution as described in clauses (v), (vi), and
(vii) above will not be continued indefinitely and may be discontinued at any
time without notice. Investors should call the Distributor at 1-800-480-4111 to
determine whether they are eligible to purchase shares without paying a sales
charge through the use of proceeds from a recent redemption or distribution as
described above, and to confirm continued availability of these waiver policies
prior to initiating the procedures described in clauses (v), (vi), and (vii).
ALTERNATIVE SALES ARRANGEMENTS
CLASS B SHARES
Class B shares are not subject to a sales charge when they are purchased, but
are subject to a sales charge (the "Contingent Deferred Sales Charge") if a
Shareholder redeems them prior to the sixth anniversary of purchase. When a
Shareholder purchases Class B shares, the full purchase amount is invested
directly in the Fund. Class B shares of the Fund are subject to an ongoing
distribution and Shareholder service fee at an annual rate of 1.00% of the
Fund's average daily net assets as provided in the Class B Plan (described
below under "The Distributor"). This ongoing fee will cause Class B shares to
have a higher expense ratio and to pay lower dividends than Class A shares.
Class B shares convert automatically to Class A shares after eight years,
commencing from the end of the calendar month in which the purchase order was
accepted under the circumstances and subject to the qualifications described in
this Prospectus.
Proceeds from the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the distribution and
Shareholder service fees under the Class B Plan are payable to the Distributor
and financial intermediaries to defray the expenses of advance brokerage
commissions and expenses related to providing distribution-related and
Shareholder services to the Fund in connection with the sale of the Class B
shares,
13
<PAGE> 157
such as the payment of compensation to dealers and agents for selling Class B
shares. A dealer reallowance of 4.00% of the original purchase price of the
Class B shares will be paid to financial institutions and intermediaries.
CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE
If the Shareholder redeems Class B shares prior to the sixth anniversary of
purchase, the Shareholder will pay a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge at the
rates set forth below. The Contingent Deferred Sales Charge is assessed on an
amount equal to the lesser of the then-current market value or the cost of the
shares being redeemed. Accordingly, no sales charge is imposed on increases in
net asset value above the initial purchase price. In addition, no charge is
assessed on shares derived from reinvestment of dividends or capital gain
distributions.
The amount of the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge, if any, varies depending on
the number of years from the time of payment for the purchase of Class B shares
until the time of redemption of such shares. Solely for purposes of determining
the number of years from the time of any payment for the purchase of shares,
all payments during a month are aggregated and deemed to have been made on the
first day of the month.
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>

3-4 3.00%
4-5 2.00%
5-6 1.00%
6-7 None
7-8 None
</TABLE>
In determining whether a particular redemption is subject to a Contingent
Deferred Sales Charge, it is assumed that the redemption is first of any Class
A shares in the Shareholders Fund account (unless the Shareholder elects to
have Class B shares redeemed first) or shares representing capital
appreciation, next of shares acquired pursuant to reinvestment of dividends and
capital gain distributions, and finally of other shares held by the Shareholder
for the longest period of time. This method should result in the lowest
possible sales charge.
To provide an example, assume you purchased 100 shares at $10 per share (a
total cost of $ 1,000) and prior to the second anniversary after purchase, the
net asset value per share is $12 and during such time you have acquired 10
additional shares through dividends paid in shares. If you then make your first
redemption of 50 shares (proceeds of $600), 10 shares will not be subject to
charge because you received them as dividends. With respect to the remaining 40
shares, the charge is applied only to the original cost of $10 per share and
not to the increase in net asset value of $2 per share. Therefore, $400 of the
$600 redemption proceeds is subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge at a
rate of 4.00% (the applicable rate prior to the second anniversary after
purchase).
The Contingent Deferred Sales Charge is waived on redemption of shares: (i) for
distributions that are made under a Systematic Withdrawal Plan of the Trust and
that are limited to no more than 10% of the account value annually, determined
in the first year as of the date the redemption request is received by the
Transfer Agent, and in subsequent years, as of the most recent anniversary of
that date; (ii) following the death or disability (as defined in the Code) of a
Shareholder or a participant or beneficiary of a qualifying retirement plan if
redemption is made within one year of such death or disability; or (iii) to the
extent that the redemption represents a minimum required distribution from an
Individual Retirement Account or other qualifying retirement plan to a
Shareholder who has attained the age of 70 1/2. A Shareholder or his or her
representative should contact the Transfer Agent to determine whether a
retirement plan qualifies for a waiver and must notify the Transfer Agent prior
to the time of redemption if such circumstances exist and the Shareholder is
eligible for this waiver. In addition, the following circumstances are not
deemed to result in a "redemption" of Class B shares for purposes of the
assessment of a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge, which is therefore waived:
(i) plans of reorganization of the Fund, such as mergers, asset acquisitions
and exchange offers to which the Fund is a party; or (ii) exchanges for Class B
shares of other funds of the Trust as described under "Exchanges."
14
<PAGE> 158
CONVERSION FEATURE
Class B shares include all shares purchased pursuant to the Contingent Deferred
Sales Charge which have been outstanding for less than the period ending eight
years after the end of the month in which the shares were purchased. At the end
of this period, Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares and
will be subject to the lower distribution and Shareholder service fees charged
to Class A shares. Such conversion will be on the basis of the relative net
asset values of the two classes, without the imposition of any sales charge,
fee or other charge. The conversion is not a taxable event to a Shareholder.
For purposes of conversion to Class A shares, shares received as dividends and
other distributions paid on Class B shares in a Shareholdees Fund account will
be considered to be held in a separate sub-account. Each time any Class B
shares in a Shareholder's Fund account (other than those in the sub-account)
convert to Class A shares, a pro-rata portion of the Class B shares in the
sub-account will also convert to Class A shares.
If a Shareholder effects one or more exchanges among Class B shares of the
funds of the Trust during the eight year period, the Trust will aggregate the
holding periods for the shares of each fund of the Trust for purposes of
calculating that eight year period. Because the per share net asset value of
the Class A shares may be higher than that of the Class B shares at the time of
conversion, a Shareholder may receive fewer Class A shares than the number of
Class B shares converted, although the dollar value will be the same.
EXCHANGES
CLASS A AND FIDUCIARY CLASS
Fiduciary Class Shareholders of the Fund may exchange their shares for Class A
shares of the Fund or for Class A shares or Fiduciary Class shares of another
fund of the Trust.
Class A Shareholders may exchange their shares for Fiduciary Class shares of
the Fund or for Fiduciary Class shares or Class A shares of another fund of the
Trust, if the Shareholder is eligible to purchase such shares.
The exchange privilege may be exercised only in those states where the shares
of the Fund or such other fund of the Trust may be legally sold. All exchanges
discussed herein are made at the net asset value of the exchanged shares,
except as provided below. The Trust does not impose a charge for processing
exchanges of shares. If a Shareholder seeks to exchange Class A shares of a
fund that does not impose a sales charge for Class A shares of a fund that does
or the fund being exchanged into has a higher sales charge, the Shareholder
will be required to pay a sales charge in the amount equal to the difference
between the sales charge applicable to the fund into which the shares are being
exchanged and any sales charges previously paid for the exchanged shares,
including any sales charges incurred on any earlier exchanges of the shares
(unless such sales charge is otherwise waived, as provided in "Other
Circumstances"). The exchange of Fiduciary Class shares for Class A shares also
will require payment of the sales charge unless the sales charge is waived, as
provided in "Other Circumstances."
CLASS B
Class B Shareholders of the Fund may exchange their shares for Class B shares
of any other fund of the Trust on the basis of the net asset value of the
exchanged Class B shares, without the payment of any Contingent Deferred Sales
Charge that might otherwise be due upon redemption of the outstanding Class B
shares. The newly acquired Class B shares will be subject to the higher
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge of either the fund from which the shares were
exchanged or the fund into which the shares were exchanged. With respect to
outstanding Class B shares as to which previous exchanges have taken place,
"higher Contingent Deferred Sales Charge" shall mean the higher of the
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge applicable to either the fund the shares are
exchanging into or any other fund from which the shares previously have been
exchanged. For purposes of computing the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge that
may be payable upon a disposition of the newly acquired Class B shares, the
holding period for outstanding Class B shares of the fund from which the
exchange was made is "tacked" to the holding period of the newly acquired Class
B shares. For purposes of calculating the holding period applicable to the
newly acquired Class B shares, the newly acquired Class B shares shall be
deemed to have been issued on the date of receipt of the Shareholder's order to
purchase the outstanding Class B shares of the fund from which the initial
exchange was made.
15
<PAGE> 159
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING EXCHANGES
In the case of shares held of record by a Shareholder Servicing Agent but
beneficially owned by a Shareholder, to exchange such shares the Shareholder
should contact the Shareholder Servicing Agent, who will contact the Transfer
Agent and effect the exchange on behalf of the Shareholder. If an exchange
request in good order is received by the Transfer Agent by 4:00 p.m., eastern
time, on any Business Day, the exchange usually will occur on that day. Any
Shareholder who wishes to make an exchange must receive a current prospectus of
the fund of the Trust in which he or she wishes to invest before the exchange
will be effected.
The Trust reserves the right to change the terms or conditions of the exchange
privilege discussed herein upon sixty days' written notice. An exchange between
classes of shares of the same fund is not considered a taxable event; however,
an exchange between funds of the Trust is considered a sale of shares and
usually results in a capital gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes.
Shareholders should consult their tax advisers for a more complete explanation
of the Federal income tax consequences of an exchange of shares of the Fund.
A more detailed description of the above is set forth in the Statement of
Additional Information.
REDEMPTIONS
Shareholders may redeem their shares (except Class B shares, as provided above)
without charge on any Business Day; shares may ordinarily be redeemed by mail,
by telephone or by wire. All redemption orders are effected at the net asset
value per share next determined for Class A and Fiduciary Class shares, and at
net asset value per share next determined reduced by any applicable contingent
deferred sales charge for Class B shares after receipt of a valid request for
redemption. Payment to Shareholders for shares redeemed will be made within
seven days after receipt by the Transfer Agent of the request for redemption.
BY MAIL
A written request for redemption must be received by the Transfer Agent in
order to constitute a valid request for redemption. All written redemption
requests should be sent to The One Group(R), c/o State Street Bank and Trust
Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500, or the Shareholder Servicing
Agent, if applicable. The Transfer Agent may require that the signature on the
written request be guaranteed by a commercial bank, a member firm of a domestic
stock exchange, or by a member of the Securities Transfer Association Medallion
Program or the Stock Exchange Medallion Program.
The signature guarantee requirement will be waived if all of the following
conditions apply: (i) the redemption is for $5,000 worth of shares or less;
(ii) the redemption check is payable to the Shareholder(s) of record; and (iii)
the redemption check is mailed to the Shareholder(s) at the address of record.
The Shareholder may also have the proceeds mailed to a commercial bank account
previously designated on the Account Application Form or by written instruction
to the Transfer Agent or the Shareholder Servicing Agent, if applicable. There
is no charge for having redemption requests mailed to a designated bank
account.
BY TELEPHONE OR BY WIRE
Shareholders may have the payment of redemption requests wired or mailed to a
domestic commercial bank account previously designated on the Account
Application Form. Wire redemption requests may be made by the Shareholder by
telephone to the Transfer Agent at 1-800-480-4111, provided that the
Shareholder has elected the telephone redemption privilege in writing to the
Distributor, or to the Shareholder Servicing Agent, if applicable. The Transfer
Agent may reduce the amount of a wire redemption payment by its then-current
wire redemption charge, which, as of the date of this Prospectus, is $7.00.
Neither the Trust nor the Transfer Agent will be responsible for the
authenticity of the redemption instructions received by telephone if it
reasonably believes those instructions to be genuine. The Trust and the
Transfer Agent will each employ reasonable procedures to confirm that telephone
instructions are genuine, and may be liable for losses resulting from
unauthorized or fraudulent telephone transactions if it does not employ those
procedures. Such procedures may include requesting personal identification
information or recording telephone conversations.
SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PLAN
Shareholders whose accounts have a value of at least $10,000 may elect to
receive, or may designate another person to receive, monthly, quarterly or
annual payments in a specified amount of not less than $100 each. There is no
charge for this service. Under the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, all dividends
and distributions must be reinvested in shares of the Fund. Purchases of
16
<PAGE> 160
additional Class A or Class B shares while the Systematic Withdrawal Plan is in
effect are generally undesirable because a sales charge is incurred whenever
purchases are made.
Pursuant to the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, Class B Shareholders may elect to
receive, or may designate another person to receive, distributions provided the
distributions are limited to no more than 10% of their account value annually,
determined in the first year as of the date of the redemption request is
received by the Transfer Agent, and in subsequent years, as of the most recent
anniversary of that date.
In addition, Shareholders who have attained the age of 70 1/2 may elect to
receive distributions, to the extent that the redemption represents a minimum
required distribution from an Individual Retirement Account or other qualifying
retirement plan.
If the amount of systematic withdrawal exceeds income accrued since the
previous withdrawal under the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, the principal balance
invested will be reduced and shares will be redeemed.
OTHER INFORMATION REGARDING REDEMPTIONS
At various times, the Fund may be requested to redeem shares for which it has
not yet received good payment. In such circumstances, the forwarding of
proceeds may be delayed for 15 or more days until payment has been collected
for the purchase of such shares. The Fund intends to pay cash for all shares
redeemed.
Due to the relatively high costs of handling small investments, the Fund
reserves the right to redeem, at net asset value, the shares of any Shareholder
if, because of redemptions of shares by or on behalf of the Shareholder, the
account of such Shareholder in the Fund has a value of less than $1,000, the
minimum initial purchase amount. Accordingly, an investor purchasing shares of
the Fund in only the minimum investment amount may be subject to such
involuntary redemption if he or she thereafter redeems any of these shares.
Before the Fund exercises its right to redeem such shares and to send the
proceeds to the Shareholder, the Shareholder will be given notice that the
value of the shares in his or her account is less than the minimum amount and
will be allowed 60 days to make an additional investment in the Fund in an
amount which will increase the value of the account to at least $1,000.
See the Statement of Additional Information for examples of when the Trust may
suspend the right of redemption or redeem shares involuntarily if it appears
appropriate to do so in light of the Trust's responsibilities under the
Investment Company Act of 1940.
FUND MANAGEMENT
THE ADVISER
The Trust and Banc One Investment Advisors Corporation (the "Adviser") have
entered into an investment advisory agreement (the "Advisory Agreement"). Under
the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser makes the investment decisions for the
assets of the Fund and continuously reviews, supervises and administers the
Fund's investment program. The Adviser discharges its responsibilities subject
to the supervision of, and policies established by, the Trustees of the Trust.
The Trust's shares are not deposits or obligations of, or endorsed or
guaranteed by BANC ONE CORPORATION or its bank or non-bank affiliates. The
Trust's shares are not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation ("FDIC") or by any other governmental agency or government
sponsored agency of the Federal government or any state.
The Adviser is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of BANC ONE CORPORATION, a
bank holding company incorporated in the state of Ohio. BANC ONE CORPORATION
currently has affiliate banking organizations in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois,
Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Ohio, Oklahoma, Texas, Utah, West Virginia and
Wisconsin. In addition, BANC ONE CORPORATION has several affiliates that engage
in data processing, venture capital, investment and merchant banking, and other
diversified services including trust management, investment management,
brokerage, equipment leasing, mortgage banking, consumer finance and insurance.
On a consolidated basis, BANC ONE CORPORATION had assets of over $90.5 billion
as of December 31, 1995.
The Adviser represents a consolidation of the investment advisory staffs of a
number of bank affiliates of BANC ONE CORPORATION, which have considerable
experience in the management of open-end management investment company
portfolios, including The One Group(R) since 1985 (then known as "The Helmsman
Fund").
17
<PAGE> 161
No single person is responsible for managing the assets of the Fund. Rather,
investment decisions for the Fund are made by committee.
The Adviser is entitled to a fee which is calculated daily and paid monthly, at
an annual rate of .05% of the average daily net assets of the Fund.
The Adviser also serves as investment adviser to each of the Underlying Funds.
As a shareholder of each of the Underlying Funds, the Fund will indirectly bear
its proportional share of investment advisory fees paid by those funds. The
Underlying Funds pay the Advisor an advisory fee at the following rates:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
The One Group Prime Money Market Fund .27%
The One Group Disciplined Value Fund .74%
The One Group International Equity Index Fund .55%
The One Group Large Company Growth Fund .74%
The One Group Large Company Value Fund .74%
The One Group Growth Opportunities Fund .74%
The One Group Value Growth Fund .65%
The One Group Gulf South Growth Fund .65%
The One Group Income Equity Fund .74%
The One Group Equity Index Fund .10%
</TABLE>
THE DISTRIBUTOR
The One Group(R) Services Company (the "Distributor"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the BISYS Group, Inc., and the Trust are parties to a
distribution agreement (the "Distribution Agreement") under which shares of the
Fund are sold on a continuous basis.
Class A shares are subject to a distribution and Shareholder services plan (the
"Plan"). As provided in the Plan, the Trust will pay the Distributor a fee of
.35% of the average daily net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. Currently,
the Distributor has voluntarily agreed to limit payments under the Plan to .25%
of the average daily net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. UP to .25% of
the fees payable under the Plan may be used as compensation for Shareholder
services by the Distribution and/or financial institutions and intermediaries.
All such fees that may be paid under the Plan will be paid pursuant to Rule
12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Distributor may apply these
fees toward: (1) compensation for its services in connection with distribution
assistance or provision of Shareholder services; or (ii) payments to financial
institutions and intermediaries such as banks (including affiliates of the
Adviser), savings and loan associations, insurance companies, investment
counselors, broker-dealers, and the Distributor's affiliates and subsidiaries,
as compensation for services or reimbursement of expenses incurred in
connection with distribution assistance or provision of Shareholder services.
Class B shares are subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge if such shares
are redeemed prior to the sixth anniversary of purchase. Class B shares of the
Fund are subject to an ongoing distribution and Shareholder service fee as
provided in the Class B distribution and Shareholder services plan (the "Class
B Plan") at an annual rate of 1.00% of the Fund's average daily net assets,
which includes Shareholder servicing fees of .25% of the Fund's average daily
net assets.
Proceeds from the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the distribution and the
Shareholder service fees under the Class B Plan are payable to the Distributor
and financial intermediaries to defray the expenses of advance brokerage
commissions and expenses related to providing distribution-related and
Shareholder services to the Fund in connection with the sale of Class B shares,
such as the payment of compensation to dealers and agents for selling Class B
shares. The combination of the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the
distribution and Shareholder service fee facilitate the ability of the Fund to
sell the Class B shares without a sales charge being deducted at the time of
purchase.
The Plan and the Class B Plan are characterized as compensation plans since the
distribution fees will be paid to the Distributor without regard to the
distribution or Shareholder service expenses incurred by the Distributor or the
amount of payments made to financial institutions and intermediaries. The Fund
also may execute brokerage or other agency transactions through an affiliate of
the Adviser or through the Distributor for which the affiliate or the
Distributor receives compensation. Pursuant to guidelines adopted by the Board
of Trustees of the Trust, any such compensation will be reasonable and fair
compared to compensation received by other brokers in connection with
comparable transactions.
Fiduciary Class shares of the Fund are offered without distribution fees to
institutional investors, including Authorized Financial Organizations. It is
possible that an institution may offer different classes of shares to its
customers and thus receive different
18
<PAGE> 162
compensation with respect to different classes of shares. In addition, a
financial institution that is the record owner of shares for the account of its
customers may impose separate fees for account services to its customers.
THE ADMINISTRATOR
The One Group(R) Services Company, (the "Administrator"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the BISYS Group, Inc., and the Trust are parties to an
administration agreement relating to the Fund (the "Administration Agreement").
Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, the Administrator is
responsible for providing the Trust with administrative services (other than
investment advisory services), including regulatory reporting and all necessary
office space, equipment, personnel and facilities.
The Adviser also serves as Sub-Administrator to each fund of the Trust,
pursuant to an agreement between the Administrator and the Adviser. Pursuant to
this agreement, the Adviser performs many of the Administrator's duties, for
which the Adviser receives a fee paid by the Administrator.
The Administrator is entitled to a fee for administrative services, which is
calculated daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of .10% of the Fund's
average daily net assets on the first $500,000,000 in Fund assets, .075% of the
Fund's average daily net assets between $500,000,000 and $1 billion, and .05%
of the Fund's average daily net assets when Fund assets exceed $1 billion.
THE TRANSFER AGENT AND CUSTODIAN
State Street Bank and Trust Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500 acts
as Transfer Agent and Custodian for the Trust, for which services it receives a
fee. The Custodian holds cash, securities and other assets of the Trust as
required by the Investment Company Act of 1940. Bank One Trust Company, N.A.
serves as Sub-Custodian in connection with the Trust's securities lending
activities, pursuant to an agreement between State Street Bank and Trust
Company. Bank One Trust Company receives a fee paid by the Trust.
COUNSEL AND INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
Ropes & Gray serves as counsel to the Trust. Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P. serves
as the independent accountants of the Trust.
OTHER INFORMATION
THE TRUST
The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts Business Trust under a Declaration
of Trust filed on May 23, 1985. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trust to
offer separate funds and different classes of each fund. All consideration
received by the Trust for shares of any fund and all assets of such fund belong
to that fund and would be subject to liabilities related thereto.
The Trust pays its expenses, including fees of its service providers, audit and
legal expenses, expenses of preparing prospectuses, proxy solicitation material
and reports to Shareholders, costs of custodial services and registering the
shares under Federal and state securities laws, pricing, insurance expenses,
litigation and other extraordinary expenses, brokerage costs, interest charges,
taxes and organizational expenses.
The Adviser and the Administrator of the Fund each bears all expenses incurred
in connection with the performance of their services as investment adviser and
administrator, respectively, other than the cost of securities (including
brokerage commissions, if any) purchased for the Fund.
As a general matter, as set forth in the Multiple Class Plan, expenses are
allocated to each class of shares of the Fund on the basis of the net asset
value of that class in relation to the net asset value of the Fund. At present,
the only expenses that are allocated to Class A and Class B shares, other than
in accordance with the relative net asset value of the class, are the
distribution and Shareholder services costs. See "Expense Summary." At present,
no expenses are allocated to Fiduciary Class shares as a class that are not
also borne by the other classes of shares of the Fund in proportion to the
relative net asset value of the shares of such classes.
The organizational expenses of the Fund have been capitalized and are being
amortized in the first five years of the Fund's operations. Such amortization
will reduce the amount of income available for payment as dividends.
19
<PAGE> 163
TRUSTEES OF THE TRUST
The management and affairs of the Trust are supervised by the Trustees under
the laws governing business trusts in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The
Trustees have approved contracts under which, as described above, certain
companies provide essential management services to the Trust.
VOTING RIGHTS
As set forth in the Multiple Class Plan, each share held entitles the
Shareholder of record to one vote. Each fund of the Trust will vote separately
on matters relating solely to that fund. In addition, each class of a fund
shall have exclusive voting rights on any matter submitted to Shareholders that
relates solely to that class, and shall have separate voting rights on any
matter submitted to Shareholders in which the interests of one class differ
from the interests of any other class. However, all fund Shareholders will have
equal voting rights on matters that affect all fund Shareholders equally. As a
Massachusetts Business Trust, the Trust is not required to hold annual meetings
of Shareholders but approval will be sought for certain changes in the
operation of the Trust and for the election of Trustees under certain
circumstances. In addition, a Trustee may be elected or removed by the
remaining Trustees or by Shareholders at a special meeting called upon written
request of Shareholders owning at least 10% of the outstanding shares of the
Trust. In the event that such a meeting is requested, the Trust will provide
appropriate assistance and information to the Shareholders requesting the
meeting.
DIVIDENDS
Net investment income (exclusive of capital gains) is declared daily, and is
determined and distributed in the form of monthly dividends to Shareholders of
Record on the first Business Day of each month. Capital gains of the Fund, if
any, will be distributed at least annually.
To maintain a relatively even rate of distributions from the Fund rather than
having substantial fluctuations from period to period, the monthly
distributions level from the Fund may be fixed from time to time at rates
consistent with the Adviser's long-term earnings expectations.
Shareholders automatically receive all income dividends and capital gain
distributions in additional Class A, Class B or Fiduciary Class shares, as
applicable, at the net asset value next determined following the record date,
unless the Shareholder has elected to take such payment in cash. Such election,
or any revocation thereof, must be made in writing, at least 15 days prior to
distribution, to the Transfer Agent at P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500,
and will become effective with respect to dividends and distributions having
record dates after its receipt by the Transfer Agent. Reinvested dividends and
distributions receive the same tax treatment as dividends and distributions
paid in cash.
Class B shares received as dividends and capital gains distributions at net
asset value next determined following the record date shall be held in a
separate Class B sub-account. Each time any Class B shares(other than those in
the sub-account) convert to Class A shares, a pro-rata portion of the Class B
shares in the sub-account will also convert to Class A shares. See "Conversion
Feature."
Dividends and distributions of the Fund are paid on a per-share basis. The
value of each share will be reduced by the amount of the payment. If shares are
purchased shortly before the record date for a dividend or the distribution of
capital gains, a Shareholder will pay the full price for the shares and receive
some portion of the price back as a taxable dividend or distribution even
though such distribution would, in effect, represent a return of the
Shareholder's investment.
The amount of dividends payable on Fiduciary Class shares will be more than the
dividends payable on Class A and Class B shares because of the distribution
expenses charged to Class A and Class B shares.
SHAREHOLDER INQUIRIES
Shareholder inquiries should be directed to the Administrator, The One Group(R)
Services Company, 3435 Stelzer Road, Columbus, OH 43219.
REPORTING

OTHER INVESTMENT POLICIES
PORTFOLIO TURNOVER
Portfolio turnover may vary greatly from year to year as well as within a
particular year. It is presently estimated that the annual portfolio turnover
rate for the Fund will not exceed 200%. Higher portfolio turnover rates will
likely result in higher transaction costs to the Fund and may result in
additional tax consequences to the Fund's Shareholders.
INVESTMENT LIMITATIONS
The investment objective and the following investment limitations are
fundamental policies of the Fund. Fundamental policies cannot be changed
without the consent of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding
shares. The term "majority of the outstanding shares" means the vote of (i) 67%
or more of the Fund's shares present at a meeting, if more than 50% of the
outstanding shares of the Fund are present or represented by proxy, or (ii)
more than 50% of the Fund's outstanding shares, whichever is less.
The Fund may not:
1. Purchase securities of any issuer (except securities issued or guaranteed by
the United States, its agencies or instrumentalities, securities issued by
regulated investment companies, and if consistent with the Fund's investment
objective and policies, repurchase agreements involving such securities) if as
a result more than 25% of the total assets of the Fund would be invested in the
securities of such issuer. This restriction applies to 50% of the Fund's total
assets. With respect to the remaining 50% of its total assets, the Fund may not
purchase the securities of any issuer if as a result more than 5% of the total
assets of the Fund would be invested in the securities of such issuer. For
purposes of this limitation, a security is considered to be issued by the
government entity whose assets and revenues guarantee or back the security.
With respect to private activity bonds or industrial development bonds backed
only by the assets and revenues of a non-governmental user, such user would be
considered the issuer.
2. Purchase any securities that would cause more than 25% of the total assets of
the Fund to be invested in the securities of one or more issuers conducting
their principal business activities in the same industry, except for investments
in funds of The One Group(R), provided that this limitation does not apply to
investments in obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its
agencies and instrumentalities and repurchase agreements involving such
securities. For purposes of this limitation (i) utilities will be divided
according to their services (for example, gas, gas transmission, electric and
telephone will each be considered a separate industry); and (ii) wholly-owned
finance companies will be considered to be in the industries of their parents if
their activities are primarily related to financing the activities of their
parents.
3. Make loans, except that the Fund may (i) purchase or hold debt instruments
in accordance with its investment objective and policies; (ii) enter into
repurchase agreements; and (iii) engage in securities lending as described in
this Prospectus and in the Statement of Additional Information.
The foregoing percentages will apply at the time of the purchase of a security.
Additional investment limitations are set forth in the Statement of Additional
Information. For the investment limitations of the Underlying Funds, see the
applicable prospectuses.
DESCRIPTION OF PERMITTED INVESTMENTS
The following is a description of certain of the permitted investments for the
Underlying Funds. As described above in "Investment Policies of the Fund -
Permissible Investments," the Fund may also invest directly in certain of the
following instruments for temporary defensive purposes. For a more detailed
description, see the Statement of Additional Information or the prospectuses of
the Underlying Funds.
U.S. TREASURY OBLIGATIONS -- The funds may invest in bills, notes and bonds
issued by the U.S. Treasury and separately traded interest and principal
component parts of such obligations that are transferable through the Federal
book-entry system known as Separately Traded Registered Interest and Principal
Securities ("STRIPS") and Coupon Under Book Entry Safekeeping ("CUBES").
RECEIPTS -- The funds may purchase interests in separately traded interest and
principal component parts of U.S. Treasury obligations that are issued by banks
or brokerage firms and are created by depositing U.S. Treasury notes and U.S.
Treasury bonds into a special account at a custodian bank. Receipts include
Treasury Receipts ("TRS"), Treasury Investment Growth Receipts ("TIGRS"), and
Certificates of Accrual on Treasury Securities ("CATS").
21
<PAGE> 165
CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT -- Certificates of deposit ("CDS") are negotiable
interest bearing instruments with a specific maturity. CDS are issued by banks
and savings and loan institutions in exchange for the deposit of funds and
normally can be traded in the secondary market prior to maturity.
TIME DEPOSITS -- Time deposits are non-negotiable receipts issued by a bank in
exchange for the deposit of funds. Like a certificate of deposit, a time
deposit ("TD") earns a specified rate of interest over a definite period of
time; however, it cannot be traded in the secondary market.
BANKERS' ACCEPTANCES -- Bankers' acceptances are bills of exchange or time
drafts drawn on and accepted by (i.e., made an obligation of) a commercial
bank. Maturities are generally six months or less.
COMMERCIAL PAPER -- Commercial paper is the term used to designate unsecured
short-term promissory notes issued by corporations and other entities.
Maturities on these issues vary from a few days to nine months.
U.S. GOVERNMENT AGENCIES -- Certain Federal agencies have been established as
instrumentalities of the U.S. government to supervise and finance specific
types of activities. Select agencies, such as the Government National Mortgage
Association ("Ginnie Mae") and the Export-Import Bank, are supported by the
full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury; others, such as the Federal
National Mortgage Association ("Fannie Mae"), are supported by the credit of
the instrumentality and have the right to borrow from the U.S. Treasury; others
are supported by the authority of the U.S. government to purchase the agency's
obligations; while still others, such as the Federal Farm Credit Banks and the
Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac"), are supported solely by
the credit of the instrumentality itself. No assurance can be given that the
U.S. government would provide financial support to U.S. government sponsored
agencies or instrumentalities if it is not obligated to do so by law.
Obligations of U.S. government agencies include debt issues and
mortgage-backed securities issued or guaranteed by select agencies.
CORPORATE SECURITIES -- Corporate securities include corporate bonds,
convertible and non-convertible debt securities, and preferred stocks, as well
as commercial paper (short-term promissory notes issued by corporations).
Issuers of corporate bonds and notes are divided into many different categories
by bond market sector, such as electric utilities, gas utilities, telephone
utilities, consumer finance companies, wholesale finance companies and
industrial companies. Within each major category of issuer, there are many
subcategories.
WARRANTS -- Warrants are securities, typically issued with preferred stock or
bonds, that give the holder the right to buy a proportionate amount of common
stock at a specified price, usually at a price that is higher than the market
price at the time of issuance of the warrant. The right may last for a period
of years or indefinitely.
COMMON STOCK -- Common stock represents a share of ownership in a company and
usually carries voting rights and earns dividends. Unlike preferred stock,
dividends on common stock are not fixed but are declared at the discretion of
the issuer's board of directors.
INVESTMENT COMPANY SECURITIES -- The funds may invest up to 5% of their total
assets in the securities of any one investment company, but may not own more
than 3% of the securities of any one investment company or invest more than 10%
of their assets in the securities of other investment companies.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- Repurchase agreements are agreements by which a person
obtains a security and simultaneously commits to return the security to the
seller at an agreed upon price (including principal and interest) on an agreed
upon date within a number of days from the date of purchase. The custodian or
its agent will hold the security as collateral for the repurchase agreement.
Collateral must be maintained at a value at least equal to 100% of the
repurchase price. The funds bear a risk of loss in the event the other party
defaults on its obligations and the funds are delayed or prevented from their
right to dispose of the collateral securities or if the funds realize a loss on
the sale of the collateral securities.
REVERSE REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS - The funds may borrow funds for temporary
purposes by entering into reverse repurchase agreements. Pursuant to such
agreements, the funds would sell portfolio securities to financial institutions
such as banks and broker-dealers, and agree to repurchase them at a mutually
agreed-upon date and price. The funds will enter into reverse repurchase
agreements only to avoid otherwise selling securities during unfavorable market
conditions to meet redemptions. At the time the funds enter into a reverse
repurchase agreement, they would place liquid high grade debt securities having
a value equal to the repurchase price (including accrued interest), in a
segregated custodial account and would subsequently monitor the account to
ensure that such equivalent value is maintained. Reverse repurchase agreements
involve the risk that the market value of the securities sold by the funds may
decline below the price at which the funds are obligated to repurchase the
securities.
22
<PAGE> 166
DEMAND FEATURES - The funds may acquire securities that are subject to puts and
standby commitments ("demand features") to purchase the securities at their
principal amount at a fixed price (usually with accrued interest) within a
fixed period (usually seven days) following a demand by the funds. The purpose
of engaging in transactions involving puts is to maintain flexibility and
liquidity to permit the funds to meet redemption requests and remain as fully
invested as possible.
ASSET-BACKED SECURITIES - Asset-backed securities consist of securities secured
by company receivables, home equity loans, truck and auto loans, leases, credit
card receivables and other securities backed by other types of receivables or
other assets. These securities are generally pass-through securities, which
means that principal and interest payments on the underlying securities (less
servicing fees) are passed through to shareholders on a pro rata basis. These
securities involve prepayment risk, which is the risk that the underlying debt
will be refinanced or paid off prior to their maturities during periods of
declining interest rates. In that case, a portfolio manager may have to
reinvest the proceeds from the securities at a lower rate. Potential market
gains on a security subject to prepayment risk may be more limited than
potential market gains on a comparable security that is not subject to
prepayment risk. Under certain interest rate and prepayment rate scenarios, the
funds may fail to recoup fully their investment in asset-backed securities.
Asset-backed securities are commonly considered to be derivatives.
SHORT-TERM FUNDING AGREEMENTS - The funds may, in order to enhance yield, make
limited investments in short-term funding agreements issued by banks and highly
rated insurance companies. Short-term funding agreements issued by insurance
companies are sometimes referred to as Guaranteed Investment Contracts
("GICs"), while those issued by banks are referred to as Bank Investment
Contracts ("BICs"). Pursuant to such agreements, the funds make cash
contributions to a deposit account at a bank or insurance company. The bank or
insurance company then credits to the funds on a monthly basis guaranteed
interest at either a fixed, variable or floating rate. These contracts are
general obligations of the issuing bank or insurance company and are paid from
the general assets of the issuing entity. The funds will purchase short-term
funding agreements only from banks and insurance companies which, at the time
of purchase, are rated "A" or the equivalent by at least one NRSRO and have
assets of $1 billion or more. Generally, there is no active secondary market
in short-term funding agreements.
SECURITIES OF FOREIGN ISSUERS -- The funds may invest in securities of foreign
issuers to achieve income or capital appreciation. The funds also may invest in
commercial paper of foreign issuers and obligations of foreign branches of U.S.
banks, U.S. and London branches of foreign banks, and supranational entities
which are established through the joint participation of several governments
(e.g., the Asian Development Bank and the Inter-American Development Bank).
Securities of foreign issuers may include sponsored and unsponsored American
Depository Receipts ("ADRs"), which are securities typically issued by a U.S.
financial institution that evidence ownership interests in a pool of securities
issued by a foreign issuer. ADRs include American Depository Shares and New
York Shares. There may be less information available on the foreign issuers of
unsponsored ADRs than on the issuers of sponsored ADRS.
MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES --Mortgage-backed securities are debt obligations
secured by real estate loans and pools of loans. The funds may acquire
securities representing an interest in a pool of mortgage loans that are issued
or guaranteed by Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Mortgage-backed
securities may also be issued by nongovernmental entities and may or may not
have private insurer guarantees of timely payments. The funds also may invest
in mortgage-backed securities issued by non-government entities, which consist
of Collateralized Mortgage Obligations ("CMOs") and Real Estate Mortgage
Investment Conduits ("REMICs"). Mortgage-backed securities are in most cases
"pass-through" instruments, through which the holder receives a share of all
interest and principal payments from the mortgages underlying the certificate.
Because the prepayment characteristics of the underlying mortgages vary, it is
not possible to predict accurately the average life or realized yield of a
particular issue of pass-through certificates. During periods of declining
interest rates, prepayment of mortgages underlying mortgage-backed securities
can be expected to accelerate. When the mortgage obligations are prepaid, the
funds may have to reinvest in securities with a lower yield. Moreover,
prepayment of mortgages which underlie securities purchased at a premium could
result in capital losses.
STRIPPED MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES--The funds may, to enhance revenues or
hedge against interest rate risk, invest in stripped mortgage-backed securities
("SMBS"), which are derivative multi-class mortgage securities. The funds may
only invest in SMBS issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies
or instrumentalities. SMBS are usually structured with two classes that receive
different proportions of the interest and principal distributions from a pool
of mortgage assets. A common type of SMBS will have one class receiving all of
the interest from the mortgage assets ("I0s"), while the other class will
receive all of the principal ("POs"). If the underlying mortgage assets
experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, the funds may
fail to fully recoup their initial investment in these securities. Although the
market for such securities is increasingly liquid, certain SMBS may not be
readily marketable and will be considered illiquid for purposes of the funds'
limitations on investments in illiquid securities. The market value of the
class consisting entirely of principal payments generally is unusually volatile
in response to changes in interest rates.
23
<PAGE> 167
MORTGAGE DOLLAR ROLLS--The funds may enter into mortgage "dollar rolls" in
which the funds sell securities for delivery in the current month and
simultaneously contract with the same counterparty to repurchase similar (same
type, coupon and maturity) but not identical securities on a specified future
date. The funds benefit to the extent of any difference between the price
received for the securities sold and the lower forward price for the future
purchase (often referred to as the "drop") or fee income plus the interest
earned on the cash proceeds of the securities sold until the settlement date of
the forward purchase. Unless such benefits exceed the income, capital
appreciation and gain or loss due to mortgage prepayments that would have been
realized on the securities sold as part of the mortgage dollar roll, the use of
this technique will diminish the investment performance of the funds compared
with what such performance would have been without the use of mortgage dollar
rolls.
FIXED RATE MORTGAGE LOANS--Generally, fixed rate mortgage loans eligible for
inclusion in a mortgage pool will bear simple interest at fixed annual rates
and have original terms to maturity ranging from 5 to 40 years. The funds may
invest in fixed rate mortgage loans that are privately issued and are not
issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government.
SECURITIES LENDING -- In order to generate additional income, the funds may
lend up to 33% of the securities in which they are invested pursuant to
agreements requiring that the loan be continuously secured by cash, securities
of the U.S. government or its agencies, shares of an investment trust or
mutual fund or any combination of cash and such securities as collateral equal
at all times to at least 100% of the market value plus accrued interest on the
securities lent. The funds will continue to receive interest on the securities
lent while simultaneously seeking to earn interest on the investment of cash
collateral in U.S. government securities, shares of an investment trust or
mutual fund, or other short-term, highly liquid investments. Collateral is
marked to market daily to provide a level of collateral at least equal to the
market value of the securities lent. There may be risks of delay in recovery of
the securities or even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of
the securities fail financially. However, loans will only be made to borrowers
deemed by the Adviser to be of good standing under guidelines established by
the Trust's Board of Trustees and when, in the judgment of the Adviser, the
consideration which can be earned currently from such securities loans
justifies the attendant risk. The funds will enter into loan arrangements only
with counterparties which the Adviser has deemed to be creditworthy under
guidelines established by the Board of Trustees. Loans are subject to
termination by the funds or the borrower at any time, and are therefore, not
considered to be illiquid investments.
RESTRICTED SECURITIES -- The funds may invest in commercial paper issued in
reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933. Section 4(2) commercial paper is restricted as to
disposition under Federal securities law and is generally sold to institutional
investors, such as the funds, who agree that they are purchasing the paper for
investment purposes and not with a view to public distribution.
VARIABLE AND FLOATING RATE INSTRUMENTS -- Certain of the obligations purchased
by the funds may carry variable or floating rates of interest, may involve a
conditional or unconditional demand feature and may include variable amount
master demand notes. The interest rates on these securities may be reset daily,
weekly, quarterly or some other reset period, and may have a floor or ceiling
on interest rate changes. There is a risk that the current interest rate on
such obligations may not accurately reflect existing market interest rates.
SECURITIES PURCHASED ON A WHEN-ISSUED BASIS AND FORWARD COMMITMENTS --The funds
may purchase securities on a when-issued basis when deemed by the Adviser to
present attractive investment opportunities. When-issued securities are
purchased for delivery beyond the normal settlement date at a stated price and
yield, thereby involving the risk that the yield obtained will be less than
that available in the market at delivery. When the Adviser purchases a
when-issued security, the Custodian will set aside cash or liquid securities to
satisfy the purchase commitment. The funds generally will not pay for such
securities or earn interest on them until received. In a forward commitment
transaction, the funds contract to purchase securities for a fixed price at a
future date beyond customary settlement time. The funds are required to hold
and maintain in a segregated account until the settlement date, cash, U.S.
government securities or liquid high-grade debt obligations in an amount
sufficient to meet the purchase price. Alternatively, the funds may enter into
offsetting contracts for the forward sale of other securities that they own.
The purchase of securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis
involves a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines
prior to the settlement date.
OPTIONS -- The funds may purchase and write (i.e., sell) call options and put
options on securities and indices, which options are traded on national
securities exchanges. A call option gives the purchaser the right to buy, and
obligates the writer of the option to sell, the underlying security at the
agreed upon exercise (or "strike") price during the option period. A put option
gives the purchaser the right to sell, and obligates the writer to buy, the
underlying security at the strike price during the option period. There are
risks associated with options transactions, including the following: (i) the
success of a hedging strategy may depend on the ability of the Adviser to
predict movements in the prices of the individual securities, fluctuations in
markets and movements in interest rates; (ii) there may be an imperfect or no
correlation between the changes in market value of the securities held by the
funds and the prices of options; (iii) there may not be a liquid secondary
market for options; and (iv) while the funds will receive a premium when they
write covered call options, they may not participate fully in a rise in the
market value of the
24
<PAGE> 168
underlying security. It is expected that the funds will only engage in option
transactions with respect to permitted investments and related indices.
FUTURES CONTRACTS AND RELATED OPTIONS -- Certain of the funds may enter into
futures contracts, options on futures contracts, index futures and options
thereon that are traded on an exchange regulated by the Commodities Futures
Trading Commission ("CFTC") if, to the extent that such futures and options are
not for "bona fide hedging purposes" (as defined by the CFTC), the aggregate
initial margin and premiums on such positions (excluding the amount by which
options are in the money) do not exceed 5% of the funds' total assets at
current value. Options and futures can be volatile instruments, and involve
certain risks. If the Adviser applies a hedge at an inappropriate time or
judges interest rates incorrectly, options and futures strategies may lower a
fund's return. The funds could also experience losses if the prices of their
options and futures positions were poorly correlated with their other
instruments, or if they could not close out their positions because of an
illiquid secondary market.
SWAPS, CAPS AND FLOORS -- In order to protect the value of the funds from
interest rate fluctuations and to hedge against fluctuations in the floating
rate market in which the funds' investments are traded, the funds may enter
into swaps, caps, and floors on various securities (such as U.S. government
securities), securities indexes, interest rates, prepayment rates, foreign
currencies or other financial instruments or indexes, for both hedging and
non-hedging purposes. Swap contracts typically involve an exchange of
obligations by two sophisticated parties. For example, in an interest rate
swap, a fund may exchange with another party their respective rights to receive
interest, such as an exchange of fixed rate payments for floating rate
payments. Currency swaps involve the exchange of respective rights to make or
receive payments in specified currencies. Mortgage swaps are similar to
interest rate swaps in that they represent commitments to pay and receive
interest. The notional principal amount, however, is tied to a reference pool
or pools of mortgages.
Caps and floors are variations on swaps. The purchase of a cap entitles the
purchaser to receive a principal amount from the party selling the cap to the
extent that a specified index exceeds a predetermined interest rate or amount.
The purchase of an interest rate floor entitles the purchaser to receive
payments on a notional principal amount from the party selling the floor to the
extent that a specified index falls below a predetermined interest rate or
amount. Caps and floors are similar in many respects to over-the-counter
options transactions, and may involve investment risks that are similar to
those associated with options transactions and options on futures contracts.
NEW FINANCIAL PRODUCTS -- New options and futures contracts and other financial
products, and various combinations thereof, continue to be developed and the
funds may invest in any such options, contracts and products as may be
developed to the extent consistent with their investment objective, policies
and restrictions and the regulatory requirements applicable to investment
companies. These various products may be used to adjust the risk and return
characteristics of the funds' portfolio of investments. These various products
may increase or decrease exposure to security prices, interest rates, commodity
prices, or other factors that affect security values, regardless of the
issuer's credit risk. If market conditions do not perform consistent with
expectations, the performance of the funds would be less favorable than it
would have been if these products were not used. In addition, losses may occur
if counterparties involved in transactions do not perform as promised. These
products may expose the funds to potentially greater return as well as
potentially greater risk of loss than more traditional fixed-income
investments.
STRUCTURED INSTRUMENTS -- Structured instruments are debt securities issued by
agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government (such as Sallie Mae,
Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac), banks, municipalities, corporations,
and other business entities whose interest and/or principal payments are
indexed to certain specific foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, or
one or more other reference indices. Structured instruments frequently are
assembled in the form of medium-term notes, but a variety of forms are
available. Structured instruments are commonly considered to be derivatives.
While structured instruments may offer the potential for a favorable rate of
return from time to time, they also entail certain risks. Structured
instruments may be less liquid than other debt securities, and the price of
structured instruments may be more volatile. If the value of the reference
index changes in a manner other than that expected by the Adviser, principal
and/or interest payments on the structured instrument may be substantially less
than expected. In addition, although structured instruments may be sold in the
form of a corporate debt obligation, they may not have some of the protection
against counterparty default that may be available with respect to publicly
traded debt securities (i.e., the existence of a trust indenture).
MUNICIPAL SECURITIES -- Municipal Securities are issued by a state or political
subdivision to obtain funds for various public purposes. Municipal securities
are generally classified as "general obligation" bonds and "revenue" bonds.
General obligation bonds are obligations involving the credit of an issuer
possessing taxing power and are payable from the issuer's general unrestricted
revenues. Revenue bonds are payable only from the revenues derived from a
particular facility or class of facilities or, in some cases, from the proceeds
of a special excise or other specific revenue source. Revenue bonds are not
payable from the issuer's general revenues. The funds also may purchase
short-term tax-exempt General Obligation Notes, Tax Anticipation Notes, Bond
Anticipation Notes, Revenue Anticipation Notes, Project Notes, and other forms
of short-term tax-exempt obligations.
25
<PAGE> 169
Such notes are issued with a short-term maturity in anticipation of the
receipt of tax funds, the proceeds of bond placements, or other revenues.
An issuer's obligations under its municipal securities are subject to the
provisions of bankruptcy, insolvency, and other laws affecting the rights and
remedies of creditors, such as the federal bankruptcy code, and laws, if any,
which may be enacted by Congress or state legislatures extending the time for
payment of principal or interest, or both, or imposing other constraints upon
the enforcement of such obligations. The power or ability of an issuer to meet
its obligations for the payment of interest on and principal of its municipal
securities may be materially adversely affected by litigation or other
conditions. Such litigation or conditions may from time to time have the effect
of introducing uncertainties in the market for tax-exempt obligations or
certain segments thereof, or may materially affect the credit risk with respect
to particular bonds or notes. Adverse economic, business, legal or political
developments might affect all or a substantial portion of a fund's municipal
securities in the same manner. In addition, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code") imposes certain continuing requirements on issuers of
tax-exempt bonds regarding the use, expenditure and investment of bond proceeds
and the payment of rebates to the United States of America. Failure by the
issuer to comply subsequent to the issuance of tax-exempt bonds with certain of
these requirements could cause interest on the bonds to become includable in
gross income retroactive to the date of issuance.
INVERSE FLOATING RATE INSTRUMENTS -- The funds may seek to increase yield by
investing in leveraged inverse floating rate debt instruments ("inverse
floaters"). The interest rate on an inverse floater resets in the opposite
direction from the market rate of interest to which the inverse floater is
indexed. An inverse floater may be considered to be leveraged to the extent
that its interest rate varies by a magnitude that exceeds the magnitude of the
change in the index rate of interest. The higher degree of leverage inherent in
inverse floaters is associated with greater volatility in their market values.
Accordingly, the duration of an inverse floater may exceed its stated final
maturity.
DESCRIPTION OF RATINGS
The following descriptions are summaries of published ratings.
DESCRIPTION OF COMMERCIAL PAPER RATINGS
The following descriptions of commercial paper ratings have been published by
Standard & Poor's Corporation ("S&P"), Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's"),
Fitch's Investors Service ("Fitch"), Duff and Phelps ("Duff"), and IBCA Limited
("IBCA"), respectively.
Commercial paper rated A by S&P is regarded by S&P as having the greatest
capacity for timely payment. Issues rated A are further refined by use of the
numbers 1+, 1 and 2 to indicate the relative degree of safety. Issues rated
A-1+ are those with an "overwhelming degree" of credit protection. Those rated
A-1 reflect a "very strong" degree of safety regarding timely payment. Those
rated A-2 reflect a high degree of safety regarding timely payment but not as
high as A-1.
Commercial paper issues rated Prime-1 and Prime-2 by Moody's are judged by
Moody's to be of the "highest" quality and "higher" quality, respectively, on
the basis of relative repayment capacity.
The rating Fitch-1 (Highest Grade) is the highest commercial rating assigned by
Fitch. Paper rated Fitch-1 is regarded as having the strongest degree of
assurance for timely payment. The rating Fitch-2 (Very Good Grade) is the
second highest commercial paper rating assigned by Fitch which reflects an
assurance of timely payment only slightly less in degree than the strongest
issues.
The rating Duff-1 is the highest commercial paper rating assigned by Duff.
Paper rated Duff-1 is regarded as having very high certainty of timely payment
with excellent liquidity factors which are supported by ample asset protection.
Risk factors are minor. Paper rated Duff-2 is regarded as having good certainty
of timely payment, good access to capital markets and sound liquidity factors
and company fundamentals. Risk factors are small.
The designation A1 by IBCA indicates that the obligation is supported by a very
strong capacity for timely repayment. Those obligations rated A1+ are supported
by the highest capacity for timely repayment. Obligations rated A2 are
supported by a strong capacity for timely repayment, although such capacity may
be susceptible to adverse changes in business, economic or financial
conditions.
DESCRIPTION OF CORPORATE/MUNICIPAL BOND RATINGS
The following descriptions of S&P's and Moody's corporate and municipal bond
ratings have been published by S&P and Moody's, respectively.
26
<PAGE> 170
Standard & Poor's Rating Services
Investment Grade
- ----------------
Bonds rated AAA have the highest rating S&P assigns to a debt obligation. Such
a rating indicates an extremely strong capacity to pay principal and interest.
Bonds rated AA also qualify as high-quality debt obligations. Capacity to pay
principal and interest is very strong, and in the majority of instances they
differ from AAA issues only in a small degree. Debt rated A has a strong
capacity to pay interest and repay principal although it is somewhat more
susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic
conditions than debt in higher rated categories.
Bonds rated BBB by S&P are regarded as having an adequate capacity to pay
interest and repay principal. Whereas it normally exhibits adequate protection
parameters, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more
likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay interest and repay principal for
bonds in this category than in higher categories.
Non-Investment Grade
- --------------------
Bonds rated BB have less near-term vulnerability to default than other
speculative issues. However, they face major ongoing uncertainties or exposure
to adverse business, financial or economic conditions which could lead to
inadequate capacity to meet timely interest and principal payments. The BB
rated category is also used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied BBB rating.
Bonds rated B have a greater vulnerability to default but currently have the
capacity to meet interest payments and principal repayments. Adverse business,
financial or economic conditions will likely impair capacity or willingness to
pay interest and repay principal. The B rating category is also used for debt
subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an actual or implied BB or
BB-rating.
Bonds rated CCC have currently identifiable vulnerability to default, and are
dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions to meet
timely payment of interest and repayment of principal. In the event of adverse
business, financial, or economic conditions, they are not likely to have the
capacity to pay interest and repay principal. The CCC rating category is also
used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an actual or implied
B or B- rating.
The rating CC typically is applied to debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied CCC rating.
The rating C typically is applied to debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied CCC rating. The C rating may be used to cover a
situation where a bankruptcy petition has been filed, but debt service payments
are continued.
The rating C1 is reserved for income bonds on which no interest is being paid.
Bonds rated D are in payment default. The D rating category is used when
interest payments or principal payments are not made on the date due, even if
the applicable grace period has not expired, unless Standard & Poor believes
that such payments will be made during such grace period. The D rating also
will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition if debt service payments
are jeopardized.
Plus (+) or minus (-). Ratings from AA to CCC may be modified by the addition
of a plus or minus sign to show relative standing within the major rating
categories.
Moody's Investor Service, Inc.
Investment Grade
- ----------------
Bonds that are rated Aaa by Moody's are judged to be of the best quality. They
carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally referred to as
"gilt edge." Interest payments are protected by a large, or an exceptionally
stable, margin and principal is secure. While the various protective elements
are likely to change, such changes as can be visualized are most unlikely to
impair the fundamentally strong position of such issues. Bonds rated Aa by
Moody's are judged by Moody's to be of high quality by all standards. Together
with bonds rated Aaa, they comprise what are generally known as high-grade
bonds. They are rated lower than the best bonds because margins of protection
may not be as large as in Aaa securities or fluctuation of protective elements
may be of greater amplitude or there may be other elements present that make
the long-term risks appear somewhat larger than in Aaa securities. Bonds that
are rated A possess many favorable investment attributes and are to be
considered as upper-medium grade obligations. Factors giving security to
principal and interest are considered adequate, but elements may be present
which suggest a susceptibility to impairment sometime in the future.
27
<PAGE> 171
Bonds that are rated Baa by Moody's are considered as medium-grade obligations
(i.e., they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured). Interest payments
and principal security appear adequate for the present but certain protective
elements may be lacking or may be characteristically unreliable over any great
length of time. Such bonds lack outstanding investment characteristics and in
fact have speculative characteristics as well.
Changes in economic conditions or other circumstances are more likely to lead
to a weakened capacity of the issuers of securities rated BBB or Baa to make
principal and interest payments than is the case with higher grade securities.
Non-Investment Grade
- --------------------
Bonds rated Ba are more uncertain and have speculative elements. The protection
of interest and principal payments is not well safeguarded during good and bad
times. Bonds rated B lack the characteristics of a desirable investment (i.e.,
potentially low assurance of timely interest and principal payments or
maintenance of other contract terms over time).
Bonds rated Caa have poor standing and may be in default. These bonds carry an
element of danger with respect to principal and interest payments. Bonds rated
Ca are speculative to a high degree and could be in default or have other
marked shortcomings. C is the lowest rating. Bonds in this category have
extremely poor prospects of ever attaining investment standing.
Unrated securities will be treated as non-investment grade securities unless
the Adviser determines that such securities are the equivalent of investment
grade securities. Securities that have received different ratings from more
than one agency are considered investment grade if at least one agency has
rated the security investment grade.
DESCRIPTION OF MUNICIPAL NOTE RATINGS
Moody's highest rating for state, municipal and other short-term notes is MIG-1
and VMIG-1. Short-term municipal securities rated MIG-1 or VMIG-1 are of the
best quality. They have strong protection from established cash flows of funds
for their servicing or from established and broad-based access to the market
for refinancing or both. Short-term municipal securities rated MIG-2 and VMIG-2
are of high quality. Margins of protection are ample although not so large as
in the preceding group.
An S&P note rating reflects the liquidity concerns and market access risks
unique to notes. Notes due in three years or less will likely receive a note
rating. Notes maturing beyond three years will most likely receive a long-term
debt rating. The following criteria will be used in making that assessment:
o Amortization schedule (the larger the final maturity relative to other
maturities the more likely it will be treated as a note).
o Source of Payment (the more dependent the issue is on the market for its
refinancing, the more likely it will be treated as a note).
Note rating symbols are as follows:
SP-1 Very strong or strong capacity to pay principal and interest. Those issues
determined to possess overwhelming safety characteristics will be given a plus
(+) designation.
SP-2 Satisfactory capacity to pay principal and interest.
MISCELLANEOUS
PERFORMANCE
From time to time, the Fund may advertise yield, total return and/or
distribution rate. These figures will be based on historical earnings and are
not intended to indicate future performance. The yield of the Fund refers to
the annualized income generated by an investment in the Fund over a specified
30-day period. The yield is calculated by assuming that the income generated by
the investment during that period is generated over a one-year period and is
shown as a percentage of the investment.
Total return is the change in value of an investment in the Fund over a given
period, assuming reinvestment of any dividends and capital gains. A cumulative
total return reflects an actual rate of return over a stated period of time. An
average annual total return is a hypothetical rate of return that, if achieved
annually, would have produced the same cumulative total return if performance
had been constant over the entire period. Average annual total returns smooth
out variations in performance; they are not the same as actual year-by-year
results.
28
<PAGE> 172
The distribution rate is computed by dividing the total amount of the dividends
per share paid out during the past period by the maximum offering price or
month-end net asset value depending on the class of the Fund. This figure is
then "annualized" (multiplied by 365 days and divided by the applicable number
of days in the period). Funds with a front-end sales charge would incorporate
the offering price into the distribution yield in place of month-end net asset
value.
Distribution rate is a measure of the level of income paid out in cash to
Shareholders over a specified period. It differs from yield and total return
and is not intended to be a complete measure of performance. Furthermore, the
distribution rate may include return of principal and/or capital gains. Total
return is the change in value of a hypothetical investment over a given period
assuming reinvestment of dividends and capital gain distributions. The yield
refers to the cumulative 30-day rolling net investment income, divided by
maximum offering price and multiplied by average shares outstanding during this
period. See the Statement of Additional Information.
The Trust will include information on all classes of shares of the Fund in any
advertisement or information including performance data for the Fund. The
performance for Fiduciary Class shares may be higher than for Class A shares
and Class B shares because Fiduciary Class shares are not subject to sales
charges and distribution expenses.
The performance of each class of the Fund may from time to time be compared to
that of other mutual funds tracked by mutual fund rating services, to that of
broad groups of comparable mutual funds or to that of unmanaged indices that
may assume investment of dividends but do not reflect deductions for
administrative and management costs. In addition, the performance of each class
of the Fund may be compared to other funds or to relevant indices that may
calculate total return without reflecting sales charges; in which case, the
Fund may advertise its total return in the same manner. If reflected, sales
charges would reduce these total return calculations.
TAXES
The following summary of Federal income tax consequences is based on current
tax laws and regulations, which may be changed by legislative, judicial or
administrative action. No attempt has been made to present a complete
explanation of the Federal, state, local or foreign tax treatment of the Fund
or its Shareholders. Accordingly, Shareholders are urged to consult their tax
advisers regarding specific questions as to the tax consequences of investing
in the Fund.
TAX STATUS OF THE FUND
The Fund is treated as a separate entity for Federal income tax purposes and is
not combined with the Trust's other funds. The Fund intends to qualify as a
"regulated investment company" for Federal income tax purposes and to meet all
other requirements that are necessary for it to be relieved of Federal taxes on
that part of its net investment income and net capital gains (the excess of net
long-term capital gain over net short-term capital loss) that is distributed to
Shareholders.
TAX STATUS OF DISTRIBUTIONS
The Fund will distribute substantially all of its net investment income
(including, for this purpose, net short-term capital gain) to Shareholders of
each class of shares of the Fund on at least an annual basis. Generally,
dividends from net investment income will be taxable to Shareholders as
ordinary income whether received in cash or in additional shares, and any net
capital gains will be distributed at least annually and will be taxed to
Shareholders as long-term capital gains, regardless of how long the Shareholder
has held shares.
Distributions by the Fund to retirement plans that qualify for tax-exempt
treatment under the Code ("qualified retirement plans") will not be taxable.
The Federal tax treatment of qualified retirement plans, as well as
distributions from such plans, is governed by specific provisions of the Code.
If shares are held by a retirement plan that ceases to qualify for tax-exempt
treatment under the Code or by an individual who has received such shares as a
distribution from a retirement plan, the Fund's distributions will be taxable
to such plan or individual as described in the preceding paragraph. Persons
considering directing the investment of their qualified retirement plan account
in the Fund and qualified retirement plan trusts considering purchasing such
shares, should consult their tax advisers for a more complete explanation of
the Federal tax consequences, and for an explanation of the state, local and
(if applicable) foreign tax consequences of making such an investment.
The Fund will make annual reports to Shareholders of the Federal income tax
status of all distributions.
Certain securities purchased by the Fund (such as STRIPS, CUBES, TRS, TIGRS and
CATS), as defined in the "Description of Permitted Investments," are sold at
original issue discount and thus do not make periodic cash interest payments.
The Fund will be required to include as part of its current income the imputed
interest on such obligations even though the Fund has not received
29
<PAGE> 173
any interest payments on such obligations during that period. Because the Fund
distributes substantially all of its net investment income to its Shareholders
(including such imputed interest), the Fund may have to sell portfolio
securities in order to generate the cash necessary for the required
distributions. Such sales may occur at a time when the Adviser would not have
chosen to sell such securities and may result in a taxable gain or loss.
Dividends declared by the Fund in October, November or December of any year and
payable to Shareholders of record on a date in such a month will be deemed to
have been paid by the Fund and received by Shareholders on December 31 of that
year, if paid by the Fund at any time during the following January.
The Fund intends to make sufficient distributions prior to the end of each
calendar year to avoid liability for Federal excise tax.
Dividends received by a Shareholder that are derived from the Fund's
investments in U.S. government obligations may not be entitled to the
exemptions from state and local income taxes that would be available if the
Shareholder had purchased U.S. government obligations directly. The Fund will
inform Shareholders annually of the percentage of income and distributions
derived from U.S. government obligations. Shareholders should consult their tax
advisers regarding the state and local tax treatment of the dividends received
from the Fund.
The Fund may be subject to foreign withholding taxes on income derived from
obligations of foreign issuers. The Fund will not be able to elect to treat
Shareholders as having paid their proportionate share of such foreign taxes.
Sale, exchange or redemption of Fund shares by a Shareholder will generally be
a taxable event to such Shareholder.

SUMMARY
THE ONE Group(R) (the "Trust") is an open-end management investment company that

long-term investment purposes. The Fund should not be used for short-term
trading purposes. There is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its
investment objective.
WHAT ARE THE PERMITTED INVESTMENTS? The Fund offers Shareholders a
professionally-managed investment program by purchasing shares of existing
mutual funds of The One Group(R) (the "Underlying Funds"), which are managed by
Banc One Investment Advisors Corporation (the "Adviser"). The Fund will invest
20% to 40% of its assets in Underlying Funds which invest primarily in equity
securities, 60% to 80% in Underlying Funds which invest primarily in
fixed-income securities, and up to 10% in Money Market Funds. The Fund will
normally allocate its assets among the Underlying Funds according to the
Adviser's outlook for the economy, financial markets and relative market
valuation of the Underlying Funds. The Adviser may vary the allocation within

objective
WHAT ARE THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE UNDERLYING FUNDS? The Underlying Funds in
which the Fund will invest have the following characteristics:

(1) A person who purchases shares through an account with a financial
institution or broker/dealer may be charged separate transaction fees
by the financial institution or broker/dealer. In addition, a wire
redemption charge, currently $7.00, is deducted from the amount of a
wire redemption payment made at the request of a Shareholder.
(2) A person who purchases $1 million or more of Class A shares and is not
assessed a sales charge at the time of purchase, will be assessed a
sales charge equivalent to 1% of the purchase price if such purchaser
redeems any or all of the Class A shares prior to the first anniversary
of purchase.
(3) Absent the voluntary waiver of fees under the Trust's Distribution and
Shareholder Services Plan, 12b-1 fees (as a percentage of average daily
net assets) would be .35% for Class A shares. The 12b-1 fees include a
Shareholder servicing fee of .25% of average daily net assets of the
Fund's Class B shares and may include a Shareholder servicing fee of
.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Class A shares. See
"The Distributor".
(4) Absent the voluntary 12b-1 fee waiver, Total Operating Expenses for
Class A shares would be .72%.
The Fund will indirectly bear its pro rata share of fees and expenses incurred
by the Underlying Funds, and the investment returns of the Fund will be net of
the expenses of the Underlying Funds. The following chart provides the expense
ratio for each of the Underlying Funds in which the Fund invests (based on the
current Underlying Fund prospectus). Certain of these expense ratios may
include a voluntary reduction of investment advisory fees.

After combining the total operating expenses of the Fund with those of the
Underlying Funds, the estimated average weighted expense ratio for Class A
Shares is 1.34%, for Class B Shares is 2.09% and for Fiduciary Class shares is
1.09%.
On the basis of these estimated expenses, the following example illustrates the
expenses an investor would pay on a $1,000 investment in Class A and Fiduciary
Class shares of the Fund, assuming: (1) imposition of the maximum sales charge
for Class A shares; (2) 5% annual return; and (3) redemption at the end of each
time period.

THESE EXAMPLES SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED A REPRESENTATION OF PAST OR FUTURE
EXPENSES AND ACTUAL EXPENSES MAY BE GREATER OR LESS THAN THOSE SHOWN. The
purpose of these tables is to assist the investor in understanding the various
costs and expenses that may be directly or indirectly borne by investors in the
Trust.
THE FUND
The One Group(R) Investor Conservative Growth Fund ( the "Fund") is part of The
One Group(R) (the "Trust"), which is an open-end management investment company
that offers shares in 39 separate funds and different classes of certain of the
funds. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts Business Trust on May 23,
1985. This Prospectus relates to Class A, Class B, and Fiduciary Class shares of
The One Group(R) Investor Conservative Growth Fund. Each class of shares
provides for variations in distribution costs, voting rights, dividends and per
share net asset value pursuant to a multiple class plan (the "Multiple Class
Plan") adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Trust. Except for these
differences between classes, each share of the Fund represents an undivided,
proportionate interest in the Fund. The Fund is a non-diversified mutual fund
because it invests in the securities of a limited number of Underlying Funds.
However, the Underlying Funds are diversified investment companies. The
Information regarding the Trust's other funds and their classes is contained in
separate prospectuses which may be obtained from the Trust's Distributor, The
One Group(R) Services Company, 3435 Stelzer Road, Columbus, OH 43219, or by
calling 1-800-480-4111.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
The Fund seeks capital appreciation and income by investing primarily in a
diversified group of One Group mutual funds which invest primarily in equity and
fixed income securities. Current income is a secondary objective.

<PAGE> 183
The investment objective of the Fund is fundamental and may not be changed
without a vote of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding shares (as
defined in the Statement of Additional Information).
There is no assurance that the Fund will meet its investment objective.
INVESTMENT POLICIES OF THE FUND
The investment policies of the Fund may be changed without an affirmative vote
of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding shares unless a policy is
expressly deemed to be fundamental. Shareholders will be notified of any
material change in the Fund's investment policies.
Permissible Investments
The Fund will invest 20% to 40% of its assets in nine Underlying Funds of The
One Group which invest primarily in equity securities, 60% to 80% of its assets
in five Underlying Funds of The One Group which invest primarily in fixed income
securities, and up to 10% of its assets in one money market fund of The One
Group. The Fund will invest its assets in the Underlying Funds, within the
ranges indicated below.

The allocation of the Fund's assets among the Underlying Funds will be made by
the Adviser under the supervision of the Trust's Board of Trustees, within the
percentage ranges set forth in the table above.
The Fund and the Underlying Funds are permitted for temporary defensive purposes
to invest up to 100% of their assets in short-term fixed income securities. Such
securities include obligations of the U.S. Government and its agencies and
instrumentalities; commercial paper, bank certificates of deposit, repurchase
agreements, bankers acceptances, variable amount master demand notes and bank
money market deposit accounts. The Fund and the Underlying Funds may also hold
cash for liquidity purposes.
To the extent the Fund or the Underlying Funds are engaged in a temporary
defensive position, they will not be pursuing their investment objective.
DESCRIPTION OF THE UNDERLYING FUNDS
The following is a brief description of the principal investment policies of the
Underlying Funds. Additional investment practices are described in "Investment
Policies of the Underlying Funds," the Statement of Additional Information and
the prospectus for each of the Underlying Funds.
The One Group(R) International Equity Index Fund
The One Group(R) International Equity Index Fund is an equity fund. The
objective of the fund is to provide investment results that correspond to the
aggregate price and dividend performance of the securities in the Gross
Domestic Product Weighted Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe,
Australia and Far East Index ("MSCI EAFE GDP Index" or "EAFE GDP Index").(1)

normal conditions, the fund will invest substantially all of its assets in
foreign securities and at least 65% of the value of its total assets in foreign
equity securities, consisting of common stocks (including sponsored and
unsponsored American Depository Receipts ("ADRs")) and preferred stocks,
securities convertible into common stocks (only if they are listed on registered
exchanges or actively traded in the over-the-counter market), warrants and
depository receipts for such securities of issuers located in at least three
different countries. In attempting to duplicate the capital performance and
dividend income of the MSCI EAFE GDP Index, the fund will normally invest in the
stocks which comprise the Index and secondarily in stock index futures. It is
expected that cash reserve items normally will not exceed 10% of the fund's net
assets. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its net assets in securities of
emerging international markets such as Mexico, Brazil and Chile. A substantial
portion of the fund's assets will be denominated in foreign currencies.
The One Group(R) Large Company Growth Fund
The One Group(R) Large Company Growth Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation
and growth of income by investing primarily in equity securities. To achieve its
objective, the fund will, under normal market conditions, invest substantially
all, but in no event less than 65%, of the value of its total assets in equity
securities consisting of common stocks, warrants and any rights to purchase
common stocks. The weighted average capitalization of the companies in which the
fund invests will under normal market conditions always be in excess of the
market median capitalization of the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price
Index ("S&P 500 Index").(2) The fund may invest the remainder of its assets
in any combination of nonconvertible fixed income securities, repurchase
agreements, options and futures contracts.
The One Group(R) Large Company Value Fund
The One Group(R) Large Company Value Fund is an equity fund that seeks capital
appreciation with the incidental goal of achieving current income by investing
primarily in equity securities. The fund will invest in equity securities of
companies that are believed to be selling below their long-term intrinsic
investment values. Companies held will typically be large capitalization issuers
with current price/earnings and/or price/book ratios which are lower than that
of the general market as measured by the S&P 500 Index. In addition, the fund
may invest in stock of companies which have been analyzed to have breakup values
well in excess of current market values or which have uniquely undervalued
corporate assets. The general approach to purchasing stocks will emphasize
individual security selection. Macroeconomic data and industry profit forecasts
will be utilized to gauge the best sectors of the economy in which to be
positioned.
Under normal market conditions, the fund will invest at least 80% of the value
of its total assets in equity securities consisting of common stocks and debt
securities and preferred stocks which are convertible into common stocks. The
fund also may enter into options and futures transactions. The remainder of the
fund's assets will be held in cash equivalents
The One Group(R) Growth Opportunities Fund
The One Group(R) Growth Opportunities Fund seeks growth of capital and,
secondarily, current income by investing primarily in equity securities. The
fund will invest in issues which are identified and selected based on the
potential to produce above-average earnings growth per share over a one-to-three
year period. It is expected that issuers will generally include established
companies with a history of above-average growth or companies that are expected
to enter periods of above-average growth, and smaller companies which are
positioned in emerging growth industries. The fund may invest in securities
listed on a stock exchange as well as those traded over-the-counter. At least
80% of the value of the fund's total assets will, under normal conditions, be
invested in equity securities consisting of common stocks and debt securities
and preferred stocks that are convertible into common stocks. The fund also may
enter into options and futures transactions. The remainder of the fund's assets
will be held in cash equivalents.
The One Group(R) Value Growth Fund
The One Group(R) Value Growth Fund seeks long-term capital growth and growth of
income while, as a secondary objective providing a moderate level of current
income. The fund pursues its objectives by investing primarily in a portfolio of
common stocks, debt securities, preferred stocks, convertible securities,
warrants, and other equity securities of companies that show the potential for
growth of earnings over time. Stock selection is guided by current valuation
relative to a stock's historical valuation and relative to the Adviser's
estimates of future growth of earnings and dividends. Accordingly, the Fund may
emphasize securities of companies that the Adviser believes are overlooked or
undervalued by investors, which fact should contribute to an increase in the
market value of the security over time.

<PAGE> 185
The fund will ordinarily invest at least 65% of the value of its total assets in
securities with the characteristics described above. Although the fund intends
to invest all of its assets in such securities, up to 35% of its total assets
may be held in cash or invested in U.S. Government Securities, other investment
grade fixed-income securities and cash equivalents.
The One Group(R) Gulf South Growth Fund
The One Group(R) Gulf South Growth Fund seeks long-term capital growth by
investing in a portfolio of equity securities of small-capitalization ,
emerging growth and medium capitalization companies, which are either
headquartered in or whose primary market is in the southeastern region of the
United States. The fund invests primarily in a portfolio of common stocks, debt
securities, preferred stocks, convertible securities, warrants and other equity
securities of such companies. The Adviser anticipates that the fund's portfolio
will normally consist of securities of approximately twenty-five to sixty
emerging growth companies from Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina,
Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana, Kentucky
and Texas. It is expected that companies selected would generally have market
capitalizations ranging from $50,000,000 to $2,000,000,000, although the fund
may occasionally hold securities of companies whose market capitalizations are
considerably larger if doing so contributes to the fund's investment objective.
The fund will normally invest at least 65% of the value of its total assets in
securities with the characteristics described above. Although the fund intends
to invest all of its assets in such securities, up to 35% of its total assets
may be held in cash or invested in U.S. Government Securities, other investment
grade fixed-income securities and cash equivalents, when the Adviser's
assessment of the attractiveness of the entire stock market and individual
market sectors changes.
Because the fund is non-diversified, its share price may be subject to greater
fluctuations as a result of changes in an issuer's financial condition or the
market's assessment of an individual issuer. In addition, smaller, less seasoned
companies may be subject to greater business risk than larger, established
companies.
The One Group(R) Income Equity Fund
The One Group(R) Income Equity Fund seeks current income through regular payment
of dividends with the secondary goal of achieving capital appreciation by
investing primarily in equity securities. The fund will make investments in an
attempt to keep its yield above the S&P 500 Index. Achieving such a yield will
be the primary consideration in selecting securities. Investments will be made
in common stocks of corporations which regularly pay dividends, although
continued payment of dividends cannot be assured. The fund will invest primarily
in stocks with favorable, long-term fundamental characteristics, but stocks of
companies that are out of favor in the financial community may also be
purchased.
The fund will under normal conditions invest at least 80% of the value of its
total assets in equity securities consisting of common stocks, and debt
securities and preferred stocks which are convertible into common stocks. The
fund also may enter into options and futures transactions. The balance of the
fund's assets will be held in cash equivalents.
The One Group(R) Equity Index Fund
The One Group(R) Equity Index Fund seeks investment results that correspond to
the aggregate price and dividend performance of the securities on the S&P 500
Index. The fund will, in attempting to duplicate the capital performance and
dividend income of the S&P 500 Index, normally invest in many of the stocks
which comprise the S&P 500 Index and secondarily in stock index futures. Cash
reserves will not normally exceed 10% of the fund's net assets.
The Adviser generally selects stocks for the fund in the order of their
weightings in the S&P 500 Index beginning with the heaviest weighted stocks. The
percentage of the fund's assets to be invested in each stock is approximately
the same as the percentage it represents in the S&P 500 Index. From time to
time, administrative adjustments may be made in the fund because of changes in
the composition of the S&P 500 Index, but such changes should be infrequent. The
fund will attempt to achieve a correlation between the performance of its
portfolio and that of the S&P 500 Index of at least 0.95, without taking into
account expenses. A correlation of 1.00 would indicate perfect correlation,
which would be achieved when the fund's net asset value, including the value of
its dividend and capital gains distributions, increases or decreases in exact
proportion to changes in the S&P 500 Index.

<PAGE> 186
The One Group(R) Prime Money Market Fund
The One Group(R) Prime Money Market Fund seeks current income with liquidity and
stability of principal. The fund intends to comply with the regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to money market funds using the
amortized cost method for calculating net asset value. These regulations impose
certain quality, maturity and diversification restraints on investments by the
fund. Under these regulations, the fund will invest only in U.S.
dollar-denominated securities, will maintain an average maturity on a
dollar-weighted basis of 90 days or less, and will acquire only "eligible
securities" that present minimal credit risks and have a maturity of 397 days or
less.
The One Group(R) Disciplined Value Fund
The One Group(R) Disciplined Value Fund seeks capital appreciation with the
secondary goal of achieving current income by investing primarily in equity
securities. The fund will invest in equity securities with below-market average
price-to-earnings and price-to-book value ratios. The issuer's soundness and
earnings prospects will also be considered. Although capital appreciation is the
primary purpose for investing in the security, all common stocks must be paying
a current dividend to shareholders to be eligible for purchase. While the
Adviser may sell fund securities in its discretion at any time, it is unlikely
to move toward elimination of the fund's holdings of a stock when the Adviser
determines that there is a fundamental change that impairs a company's ability
to pay dividends, or if the company's 12-month earnings per share comparison is
declining.
The fund will, under normal conditions, invest at least 80% of the value of its
total assets in equity securities consisting of common stocks and debt
securities and preferred stocks that are convertible into common stocks. The
fund also may enter into options and futures transactions. The balance of the
fund's assets will be held in cash equivalents.
The One Group(R) Limited Volatility Bond Fund
The One Group(R) Limited Volatility Bond Fund seeks current income consistent
with preservation of capital through investment in high and medium-grade
fixed-income securities. The fund will normally invest at least 80% of total
assets in debt securities of all types with short to intermediate maturities.
Under normal market conditions, it is anticipated that the fund's average
weighted maturity will range between one and five years. At least 65% of the
fund's total assets will consist of bonds rated in one of the three highest
rating categories by at least one nationally recognized statistical rating
organization ("NRSRO") at the time of investment, or, if unrated, determined by
the Adviser to be of comparable quality. In addition, at least 65% of total
assets will consist of obligations issued by the U.S. government or its agencies
and instrumentalities, some of which may be subject to repurchase agreements.
The fund also may purchase taxable or tax-exempt municipal securities. Up to 20%
of the fund's total assets may be invested in preferred stocks.
The One Group(R) Intermediate Bond Fund
The One Group(R) Intermediate Bond Fund seeks current income consistent with the
preservation of capital through investments in high and medium-grade
fixed-income securities with intermediate maturities. The fund will normally
invest at least 80% of total assets in debt securities of all types. Under
normal market conditions, it is anticipated that the fund's average weighted
maturity will range between three and ten years. At least 65% of the fund's
total assets will consist of bonds rated in one of the three highest rating
categories by at least one NRSRO at the time of investment or, if unrated,
determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. However, the Adviser
reserves the right to invest in more speculative debt securities if they present
attractive opportunities and are rated in the fourth highest rating category by
at least one NRSRO at the time of investment or, if unrated, determined by the
Adviser to be of comparable quality. In addition, at least 50% of total assets
will consist of obligations issued by the U.S. government or its agencies and
instrumentalities, some of which may be subject to repurchase agreements. The
fund also may purchase taxable or tax-exempt municipal securities. Up to 20% of
the fund's total assets may be invested in preferred stocks.
The One Group(R) Income Bond Fund
The One Group(R) Income Bond Fund seeks current income by investing in a
portfolio of high and medium-grade fixed-income securities. The fund will
normally invest at least 80% of total assets in debt securities of all types.
Under normal market conditions, it is anticipated that the fund's average
weighted maturity will range between five and fifteen years. At least 65% of the
fund's total assets will consist of bonds rated in one of the three highest
rating categories by at least one NRSRO at the time of investment, or, if
unrated, determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. However, the
Adviser reserves the right to invest in more speculative debt securities if they
present attractive opportunities and are rated in the fourth highest rating
category by at least one NRSRO at the time of investment, or, if unrated,
determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. The fund also may
purchase taxable or tax-exempt municipal securities. Up to 20% of the fund's
total assets may be invested in preferred stocks.

<PAGE> 187
The One Group(R) Government Bond Fund
The One Group(R) Government Bond Fund seeks a high level of current income with
liquidity and safety of principal. The fund seeks to achieve its objective
principally through investment in securities issued by the U.S. government and
its agencies and instrumentalities. At least 65% of the total assets of the fund
will be invested in obligations guaranteed as to principal and interest by the
U.S. government or its agencies and instrumentalities, some of which may be
subject to repurchase agreements, and other securities representing an interest
in or collateralized by mortgages that are issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
government, its agencies or instrumentalities. The balance of the fund's assets
may be invested in debt securities and taxable or tax-exempt municipal
securities. The average weighted remaining maturity of the fund is expected to
be between three and fifteen years.
The One Group(R) Ultra Short-Term Income Fund
The One Group(R) Ultra-Short Term Income Fund seeks a high level of current
income consistent with low volatility of principal by investing in a diversified
portfolio of short-term investment grade securities. The fund will normally
invest at least 80% of its total assets in debt securities of all types,
including money market instruments. In addition, up to 20% of the fund's total
assets may be invested in other securities, including preferred stock. The fund
will invest in adjustable rate mortgage pass-through securities and other
securities representing an interest in or collateralized by mortgages with
periodic interest rate resets, some of which may be subject to repurchase
agreements. These securities often are issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
government, its agencies or instrumentalities. However, the fund also may
purchase mortgage-backed securities that are issued by non-governmental
entities. Such securities may or may not have private insurer guarantees as to
timely payments. The fund also may purchase mortgage and interest rate swaps and
interest rate floors and caps. The fund also may employ other investment
techniques to enhance returns, such as loans of fund securities, mortgage dollar
rolls, repurchase agreements, options contracts and reverse repurchase
agreements.
The Fund will maintain a maximum duration of approximately two years. Under
normal interest rate conditions, the Fund's actual duration is expected to be in
a range of approximately six months to one year.
RISK FACTORS
The investments of the Fund are concentrated in the Underlying Fund, so the
Fund's investment performance is directly related to the performance of the
Underlying Funds. In addition, as a matter of fundamental policy, the Fund must
allocate its investments among the Underlying Funds within certain ranges. As a
result, the Fund does not have the same flexibility to invest as a mutual fund
without such constraints.
The Fund may invest in Underlying Funds which invest in medium or lower grade
bonds. If these bonds are downgraded, the Adviser will consider whether to
increase or decrease the Fund's investment in the affected Underlying Fund.
Further, the Fund may invest in Underlying Funds which concentrate their assets
in certain industries. Under certain circumstances, this could result in the
Fund being concentrated in those industries. If this were to occur, the Adviser
would consider whether to maintain or change the Fund's investments in such
Underlying Funds.
Special Risks of Investing in Equity Funds
Changes in the value of an equity fund's portfolio securities will not affect
cash income, if any, derived from these securities but will affect the fund's
net asset value. Because equity funds invest primarily in equity securities,
which fluctuate in value, the funds' shares also will fluctuate in value. In
addition, certain investment management techniques that the funds may use, such
as the purchase and sale of futures, options and forward commitments, could
expose the funds to potentially greater risk of loss than more traditional
equity investments.
Special Risks of Investing in Fixed-Income Funds
The market value of a fund's fixed-income investments will change in response to
interest rate changes and other factors. During periods of falling interest
rates, the values of outstanding fixed-income securities generally rise.
Conversely, during periods of rising interest rates, the values of such
securities generally decline. Moreover, while securities with longer maturities
tend to produce higher yields, the prices of longer maturity securities are also
subject to greater market fluctuations as a result of changes in interest rates.
Changes by recognized agencies in the rating of any fixed-income security and in
the ability of an issuer to make payments of interest and principal also affect
the value of these investments. Except under condition of default, changes in
the value of fixed-income securities will not affect cash income derived from
these securities but will affect the funds' net asset value.
10
<PAGE> 188
Special Risks of Investing in Index Funds
Because of the funds' investment objectives, securities may be purchased,
retained and sold by the funds when such transactions would not be consistent
with traditional investment criteria. Accordingly, an investor is exposed to a
greater risk of loss (and a correspondingly greater prospect of gain) from
fluctuations in the value of such securities than would be the case if the funds
were not fully invested in such securities. In addition, the Adviser may
eliminate one or more securities or elect not to increase the funds' position in
such securities notwithstanding the continued listing of such securities on the
relevant index in the following circumstances: (i) the stock is no longer
publicly traded; or (ii) an unexpected adverse development occurs with respect
to a company such as bankruptcy or insolvency. As a result of these risk
factors, the share price of an index fund is expected to be volatile, and
investors should be able to sustain sudden, sometimes substantial, fluctuations
in the value of their investment.
Special Risks of Foreign Securities
Investments in securities of foreign issuers involve risks that are different
from investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These risks may include future
unfavorable political and economic developments, possible withholding taxes,
seizure of foreign deposits, currency controls, higher transaction costs, and
delayed settlements of transactions. Securities of some foreign companies are
less liquid, and their prices more volatile, than securities of comparable U.S.
companies. Additionally, there may be less public information available about
foreign issuers. Finally, since the funds may invest in securities denominated
in foreign currencies, changes in exchange rates may affect the value of
investments in the funds.
Special Risks of Small Capitalization Companies
Smaller, less seasoned companies may be subject to greater business risk than
larger, established companies. They may be more vulnerable to changes in
economic conditions, specific industry conditions, market fluctuations and other
factors affecting the profitability of companies. Therefore, the stock price of
smaller capitalization companies may be subject to greater price fluctuations
than that of larger, established companies. Due to these and other risk factors,
the price movement of the securities held by the funds may be volatile and the
net asset value of shares of the funds may fluctuate.
Special Risks of Mortgage-Related Securities
Some of the funds invest in mortgage-related securities, such as mortgage-backed
securities, adjustable rate mortgage loans ("ARMs"), fixed rate mortgage loans,
and mortgage dollar rolls. The investment characteristics of mortgage-related
securities differ from traditional debt securities. These differences can result
in significantly greater price and yield volatility than is the case with
traditional fixed-income securities. The major differences typically include
more frequent interest and principal payments, usually monthly, the
adjustability of interest rates, and the possibility that prepayments of
principal may be made at any time. Prepayment rates are influenced by changes in
current interest rates and a variety of economic, geographic, social, and other
factors. During periods of declining interest rates, prepayment rates can be
expected to accelerate. Under certain interest rate and prepayment rate
scenarios, a fund may fail to recoup fully its investment in mortgage-related
securities notwithstanding a direct or indirect governmental or agency
guarantee. The funds intend to use hedging techniques to control this risk. In
general, changes in the rate of prepayments on a mortgage-related security will
change that security's market value and its yield to maturity. When interest
rates fall, high prepayments could force a fund to reinvest principal at a time
when investment opportunities are not attractive. Thus, mortgage-related
securities may not be an effective means for a fund to lock in long-term
interest rates. Conversely, during periods when interest rates rise, slow
prepayments could cause the average life of the security to lengthen and the
value to decline more than anticipated.
HOW TO DO BUSINESS WITH
THE ONE GROUP(R)
HOW TO INVEST IN THE ONE GROUP(R)
Shares of the Fund are sold on a continuous basis and may be purchased directly
from the Trust's Distributor, The One Group(R) Services Company, by mail, by
telephone, or by wire. Shares may also be purchased through a financial
institution, such as a bank, savings and loan association or insurance company
(each a "Shareholder Servicing Agent"), that has established a Shareholder
servicing agreement with the Distributor, or through a broker-dealer that has
established a dealer agreement with the Distributor.
Purchases and redemptions of shares of the Fund may be made on any day that the
New York Stock Exchange is open for trading ("Business Days"). The minimum
initial and subsequent investments in the Fund are $1,000 and $100 respectively
($100 and $25, respectively, for employees of BANC ONE CORPORATION and its
affiliates). Initial and subsequent investment minimums may
11
<PAGE> 189
be waived at the Distributor's discretion. Investors may purchase up to a
maximum of $250,000 of Class B shares per individual purchase order.
Class A shares are offered to IRA account participants and other long-term
investors. Class B shares are offered to investors in certain retirement plans
such as 401(k) and similar qualified plans. Fiduciary Class shares are offered
to institutional investors, including affiliates of BANC ONE CORPORATION and any
bank, depository institution, insurance company, pension plan or other
organization authorized to act in fiduciary, advisory, agency, custodial or
similar capacities (each an "Authorized Financial Organization"). For additional
details regarding eligibility, call the Distributor at 1-800-480-4111.
BY MAIL
Investors may purchase Class A and Class B shares of the Fund by completing and
signing an Account Application Form and mailing it, along with a check (or other
negotiable bank instrument or money order) payable to "The One Group(R)," to
State Street Bank and Trust Company (the Trust's Transfer Agent and Custodian),
P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500. Subsequent purchases of shares may be made
at any time by mailing a check to the Transfer Agent. Account Application Forms
are available through the Distributor by calling 1-800-480-4111.
Purchases of Fiduciary Class shares, and Class B shares that are being offered
to investors in certain retirement plans such as 401(k) and similar plans, other
than Individual Retirement Accounts, are made by an institutional investor
and/or other intermediary on behalf of an investor (each also a "Shareholder
Servicing Agent"). The Shareholder Servicing Agent may require an investor to
complete forms in addition to the Account Application Form and to follow
procedures established by the Shareholder Servicing Agent. Such Shareholders
should contact their Shareholder Servicing Agents regarding purchases, exchanges
and redemptions of shares. See "Additional Information Regarding Purchases."
BY TELEPHONE OR BY WIRE
Once an Account Application Form has been received, Shareholders are eligible to
make purchases by telephone or wire (if that option has been selected by a
Shareholder) by calling the Transfer Agent at 1-800-480-4111 or the Shareholder
Servicing Agents, if applicable.
Shareholders may revoke their automatic eligibility to make purchases and/or
redemptions by telephone or by wire, by sending a letter so stating to the
Transfer Agent, State Street Bank and Trust Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA
02266-8500.
SYSTEMATIC INVESTMENT PLAN
Class A and Class B investors may make automatic monthly investments in the Fund
from their bank, savings and loan or other depository institution accounts. The
minimum initial and subsequent investments must be $25 under the Systematic
Investment Plan, which minimum may be waived at the discretion of the
Distributor. The Trust pays the costs associated with these transfers, but
reserves the right, upon thirty days' written notice, to impose reasonable
charges for this service. A depository institution may impose a charge for
debiting an investor's account which would reduce the investor's return from an
investment in the Fund.
FUND-DIRECT IRA
The Trust offers a tax-advantaged retirement plan for which the Fund may be an
appropriate investment. The Trust's retirement plan allows participants to defer
taxes while helping them build their retirement savings.
The One Group Fund-Direct IRA is a retirement plan with a wide choice of
investments offering people with earned income the opportunity to compound
earnings on a tax-deferred basis. An IRA Adoption Agreement may be obtained by
calling the Distributor at 1-800-480-4111.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING PURCHASES
A purchase order will be effective as of the day received by the Distributor if
the Distributor receives the order before 4:00 p.m., eastern time. However, an
order may be cancelled if the Transfer Agent does not receive Federal funds
before close of business on the next Business Day for Fiduciary Class shares,
and before the close of business on the third Business Day for Class A and Class
B shares, and the investor could be liable for any fees or expenses incurred by
the Trust. Federal funds are monies credited to a bank's account with a Federal
Reserve Bank. The purchase price of shares of the Fund is the net asset value
next determined after a purchase order is effected plus any applicable sales
charge (the "offering price"). The net asset value per share of the Fund is
determined by dividing the total market value of the Fund's investments and
other assets allocable to a class, less any liabilities allocable to that class,
by the total number of outstanding shares of such class. Net asset value per
share is determined daily as of
12
<PAGE> 190
4:00 p.m., eastern time, on each Business Day. For a further discussion of the
calculation of net asset value, see the Statement of Additional Information.
Shares may also be issued in transactions involving the acquisition by the Fund
of securities held by collective investment funds sponsored and administered by
affiliates of the Adviser. Purchases will be made in full and fractional shares
of the Fund calculated to three decimal places. Although the methodology and
procedures are identical, the net asset value per share of classes within the
Fund may differ because the distribution expenses charged to Class A shares and
Class B shares are not charged to Fiduciary Class shares.
The Trust reserves the right to reject a purchase order when the Distributor
determines that it is not in the best interest of the Trust and/or its
Shareholders to accept such order. Except as provided below, neither the Trust's
Transfer Agent nor the Trust will be responsible for any loss, liability, cost
or expense for acting upon telephone or wire instructions, and the investor will
bear all risk of loss. The Trust will employ reasonable procedures to confirm
that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine, including requiring a
form of personal identification prior to acting upon instructions received by
telephone and recording telephone instructions. If such procedures are not
employed, the Trust may be liable for any losses due to unauthorized or
fraudulent instructions.
Fiduciary Class shares offered to institutional investors and to investors in
certain retirement plans, Class A shares offered to IRA account participants and
Class B shares that are offered to investors in certain retirement plans such as
401(k) and similar plans, other than Individual Retirement Accounts, will
normally be held in the name of the Shareholder Servicing Agent effecting the
purchase on the Shareholder's behalf, and it is the Shareholder Servicing
Agent's responsibility to transmit purchase orders to the Distributor. A
Shareholder Servicing Agent may impose an earlier cut-off time for receipt of
purchase orders directed through it to allow for processing and transmittal of
these orders to the Distributor for effectiveness the same day. The Shareholder
should contact his or her Shareholder Servicing Agent for information as to the
Shareholder Servicing Agent's procedures for transmitting purchase, exchange or
redemption orders to the Trust. A Shareholder who desires to transfer the
registration of shares beneficially owned by him or her, but held of record by a
Shareholder Servicing Agent, should contact the Shareholder Servicing Agent to
accomplish such change. Other Shareholders who desire to transfer the
registration of their shares should contact the Transfer Agent.
No certificates representing shares of the Fund will be issued. In
communications to Shareholders, the Fund will not duplicate mailings of Fund
material to Shareholders who reside at the same address.

The commissions shown in the table apply to sales through financial institutions
and intermediaries. Under certain circumstances, the Distributor will use its
own funds to compensate financial institutions and intermediaries in amounts
that are additional to the commissions shown above. The maximum cash
compensation payable by the Distributor as a sales charge is 3.00% of the
offering price (including the commission shown above and additional cash
compensation described below). In addition, the Distributor will, from time to
time and at its own expense, provide promotional incentives to financial
institutions and intermediaries, whose registered representatives have sold or
are expected to sell significant amounts of the shares of the Fund in the form
of payment for travel expenses, including lodging, incurred in connection with
trips taken by qualifying registered representatives to places within or outside
the United States, and additional compensation in an amount up to 1.00% of the
offering price of Class A shares of the Fund for sales of $1 million to $5
million, and 0.50% for sales over $5 million. A Shareholder who purchases $1
million or more of Class A shares and is not assessed a sales charge at the time
of purchase, will be assessed a sales charge equivalent to 1% of the purchase
price if such Shareholder redeems any or all of the Class A shares prior to the
first anniversary of purchase. Under certain circumstances, commissions up to
the amount of the entire sales charge will be reallowed to financial
institutions and intermediaries, which might then be deemed to be "underwriters"
under the Securities Act of 1933.

RIGHT OF ACCUMULATION
In calculating the sales charge rates applicable to current purchases of Class A
shares, a "single purchaser" is entitled to cumulate current purchases with the
current value at the offering price of previously purchased Class A and Class B
shares of the Fund and other eligible funds of the Trust, other than the Trust's
money market funds, that are sold subject to a comparable sales charge.
The term "single purchaser" refers to (i) an individual, (ii) an individual and
spouse purchasing shares of the Fund for their own account or for trust or
custodial accounts for their minor children, or (iii) a fiduciary purchasing for
any one trust, estate or fiduciary account, including employee benefit plans
created under Sections 401 or 457 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code"), and including related plans of the same employer. To be
entitled to a reduced sales charge based upon shares already owned, the investor
must ask the Distributor for such reduction at the time of purchase and provide
the account number(s) of the investor, the investor and spouse, and their minor
children, and give the age of such children. The Fund may amend or terminate
this right of accumulation at any time as to subsequent purchases.
LETTER OF INTENT
By initially investing at least $2,000 in Class A shares of one or more funds
that impose a comparable sales charge over the next 13 months, the sales charge
may be reduced by completing the Letter of Intent section of the Account
Application Form. The Letter of Intent includes a provision for a sales charge
adjustment depending on the amount actually purchased within the 13-month
period. In addition, pursuant to a Letter of Intent, the Custodian will hold in
escrow the difference between the sales charge applicable to the amount
initially purchased and the sales charge paid at the time of investment, which
is based on the amount covered by the Letter of Intent.
For example, assume an investor signs a Letter of Intent to purchase $250,000 in
Class A shares of one (or more) of the funds of the Trust that imposes a
comparable sales charge and, at the time of signing the Letter of Intent,
purchases $100,000 of Class A shares of one of these funds. The investor would
pay an initial sales charge of 2.00% (the sales charge applicable to purchases
of $250,000) and .50% of the investment (representing the difference between the
2.50% sales charge applicable to purchases of $100,000 and the 2.00% sales
charge already paid) would be held in escrow until the investor has purchased
the remaining $150,000 or more in Class A shares under the investor's Letter of
Intent.
The amount held in escrow will be applied to the investor's account at the end
of the 13-month period unless the amount specified in the Letter of Intent is
not purchased. In order to qualify for a Letter of Intent, the investor will be
required to make a minimum purchase of at least $2,000.
The Letter of Intent will not obligate the investor to purchase Class A shares,
but if he or she does, each purchase during the period will be at the sales
charge applicable to the total amount intended to be purchased. The Letter of
Intent may be dated as of a prior date to include any purchases made within the
past 90 days.
OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES
No sales charge is imposed on Class A shares of the Fund: (i) issued through
reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions; (ii) acquired through
the exercise of exchange privileges where a comparable sales charge has been
paid for exchanged shares; (iii) purchased by officers, directors or trustees,
retirees and employees (and their spouses and immediate family members) of the
Trust, of BANC ONE CORPORATION and its subsidiaries and affiliates, of the
Distributor and its subsidiaries and affiliates, or of an investment sub-adviser
of a fund of the Trust and such sub-adviser's subsidiaries and affiliates; (iv)
sold to affiliates of BANC ONE CORPORATION and certain accounts (other than
Individual Retirement Accounts) for which Authorized Financial Organizations act
in fiduciary, advisory, agency, custodial or similar capacities, or purchased by
investment advisers, financial planners or other intermediaries who have a
dealer arrangement with the Distributor, who place trades for their own accounts
or for the accounts of their clients and who charge a management, consulting or
other fee for their services, as well as clients of such investment advisers,
financial planners or other intermediaries who place trades for their own
accounts if the accounts are linked to the master account of such investment
adviser, financial planner or other intermediary; (v) purchased with proceeds
from the recent redemption of Fiduciary Class shares of a fund of the Trust or
acquired in an exchange of Fiduciary Class shares of a fund for Class A shares
of the same fund; (vi) purchased with proceeds from the recent redemption of
shares of a mutual fund (other than a fund of the Trust) for which a sales
charge was paid; (vii) purchased in an Individual Retirement Account with the
proceeds of a distribution from an employee benefit plan, provided that, at the
time of distribution, the employee benefit plan had plan assets invested in a
fund of the Trust; (viii) purchased with Trust assets; (ix) purchased in
accounts as to which a bank or broker-dealer charges an asset allocation fee,
provided the bank or broker-dealer has an agreement with the Distributor; (x)
directly purchased with the proceeds of a distribution on a bond for which a
BANC ONE CORPORATION affiliate bank or trust company is the Trustee or Paying
Agent; or (xi) purchased in connection with plans of reorganization of the Fund,
such as mergers, asset acquisitions and exchange offers to which the Fund is a
party.
14
<PAGE> 192
An investor relying upon any of the categories of waivers of the sales charge
must qualify for such waiver in advance of the purchase with the Distributor or
the financial institution or intermediary through which shares are purchased by
the investor.
The waiver of the sales charge under circumstances (v), (vi), and (vii) above
applies only if the purchase is made within 60 days of the redemption or
distribution and if conditions imposed by the Distributor are met. The waiver
policy with respect to the purchase of shares through the use of proceeds from a
recent redemption or distribution as described in clauses (v), (vi), and (vii)
above will not be continued indefinitely and may be discontinued at any time
without notice. Investors should call the Distributor at 1-800-480-4111 to
determine whether they are eligible to purchase shares without paying a sales
charge through the use of proceeds from a recent redemption or distribution as
described above, and to confirm continued availability of these waiver policies
prior to initiating the procedures described in clauses (v), (vi), and (vii).
ALTERNATIVE SALES ARRANGEMENTS
CLASS B SHARES
Class B shares are not subject to a sales charge when they are purchased, but
are subject to a sales charge (the "Contingent Deferred Sales Charge") if a
Shareholder redeems them prior to the sixth anniversary of purchase. When a
Shareholder purchases Class B shares, the full purchase amount is invested
directly in the Fund. Class B shares of the Fund are subject to an ongoing
distribution and Shareholder service fee at an annual rate of 1.00% of the
Fund's average daily net assets as provided in the Class B Plan (described below
under "The Distributor"). This ongoing fee will cause Class B shares to have a
higher expense ratio and to pay lower dividends than Class A shares. Class B
shares convert automatically to Class A shares after eight years, commencing
from the end of the calendar month in which the purchase order was accepted
under the circumstances and subject to the qualifications described in this
Prospectus.
Proceeds from the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the distribution and
Shareholder service fees under the Class B Plan are payable to the Distributor
and financial intermediaries to defray the expenses of advance brokerage
commissions and expenses related to providing distribution-related and
Shareholder services to the Fund in connection with the sale of the Class B
shares, such as the payment of compensation to dealers and agents for selling
Class B shares. A dealer reallowance of 4.00% of the original purchase price of
the Class B shares will be paid to financial institutions and intermediaries.
CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE
If the Shareholder redeems Class B shares prior to the sixth anniversary of
purchase, the Shareholder will pay a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge at the
rates set forth below. The Contingent Deferred Sales Charge is assessed on an
amount equal to the lesser of the then-current market value or the cost of the
shares being redeemed. Accordingly, no sales charge is imposed on increases in
net asset value above the initial purchase price. In addition, no charge is
assessed on shares derived from reinvestment of dividends or capital gain
distributions.
The amount of the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge, if any, varies depending on
the number of years from the time of payment for the purchase of Class B shares
until the time of redemption of such shares. Solely for purposes of determining
the number of years from the time of any payment for the purchase of shares, all
payments during a month are aggregated and deemed to have been made on the first
day of the month.

In determining whether a particular redemption is subject to a Contingent
Deferred Sales Charge, it is assumed that the redemption is first of any Class A
shares in the Shareholder's Fund account (unless the Shareholder elects to have
Class B shares redeemed first)
15
<PAGE> 193
or shares representing capital appreciation, next of shares acquired pursuant to
reinvestment of dividends and capital gain distributions, and finally of other
shares held by the Shareholder for the longest period of time. This method
should result in the lowest possible sales charge.
To provide an example, assume you purchased 100 shares at $10 per share (a total
cost of $1,000) and prior to the second anniversary after purchase, the net
asset value per share is $12 and during such time you have acquired 10
additional shares through dividends paid in shares. If you then make your first
redemption of 50 shares (proceeds of $600), 10 shares will not be subject to
charge because you received them as dividends. With respect to the remaining 40
shares, the charge is applied only to the original cost of $10 per share and not
to the increase in net asset value of $2 per share. Therefore, $400 of the $600
redemption proceeds is subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge at a rate
of 4.00% (the applicable rate prior to the second anniversary after purchase).
The Contingent Deferred Sales Charge is waived on redemption of shares: (i) for
distributions that are made under a Systematic Withdrawal Plan of the Trust and
that are limited to no more than 10% of the account value annually, determined
in the first year as of the date the redemption request is received by the
Transfer Agent, and in subsequent years, as of the most recent anniversary of
that date; (ii) following the death or disability (as defined in the Code) of a
Shareholder or a participant or beneficiary of a qualifying retirement plan if
redemption is made within one year of such death or disability; or (iii) to the
extent that the redemption represents a minimum required distribution from an
Individual Retirement Account or other qualifying retirement plan to a
Shareholder who has attained the age of 70 1/2. A Shareholder or his or her
representative should contact the Transfer Agent to determine whether a
retirement plan qualifies for a waiver and must notify the Transfer Agent prior
to the time of redemption if such circumstances exist and the Shareholder is
eligible for this waiver. In addition, the following circumstances are not
deemed to result in a "redemption" of Class B shares for purposes of the
assessment of a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge, which is therefore waived: (i)
plans of reorganization of the Fund, such as mergers, asset acquisitions and
exchange offers to which the Fund is a party; or (ii) exchanges for Class B
shares of other funds of the Trust as described under "Exchanges."
CONVERSION FEATURE
Class B shares include all shares purchased pursuant to the Contingent Deferred
Sales Charge which have been outstanding for less than the period ending eight
years after the end of the month in which the shares were purchased. At the end
of this period, Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares and
will be subject to the lower distribution and Shareholder service fees charged
to Class A shares. Such conversion will be on the basis of the relative net
asset values of the two classes, without the imposition of any sales charge, fee
or other charge. The conversion is not a taxable event to a Shareholder.
For purposes of conversion to Class A shares, shares received as dividends and
other distributions paid on Class B shares in a Shareholder's Fund account will
be considered to be held in a separate sub-account. Each time any Class B shares
in a Shareholder's Fund account (other than those in the sub-account) convert to
Class A shares, a pro-rata portion of the Class B shares in the sub-account will
also convert to Class A shares.
If a Shareholder effects one or more exchanges among Class B shares of the funds
of the Trust during the eight-year period, the Trust will aggregate the holding
periods for the shares of each fund of the Trust for purposes of calculating
that eight-year period. Because the per share net asset value of the Class A
shares may be higher than that of the Class B shares at the time of conversion,
a Shareholder may receive fewer Class A shares than the number of Class B shares
converted, although the dollar value will be the same.
EXCHANGES
CLASS A AND FIDUCIARY CLASS
Fiduciary Class Shareholders of the Fund may exchange their shares for Class A
shares of the Fund or for Class A shares or Fiduciary Class shares of another
fund of the Trust.
Class A Shareholders may exchange their shares for Fiduciary Class shares of the
Fund or for Fiduciary Class shares or Class A shares of another fund of the
Trust, if the Shareholder is eligible to purchase such shares.
The exchange privilege may be exercised only in those states where the shares of
the Fund or such other fund of the Trust may be legally sold. All exchanges
discussed herein are made at the net asset value of the exchanged shares, except
as provided below. The Trust does not impose a charge for processing exchanges
of shares. If a Shareholder seeks to exchange Class A shares of a fund that does
not impose a sales charge for Class A shares of a fund that does or the fund
being exchanged into has a higher sales charge, the Shareholder will be required
to pay a sales charge in the amount equal to the difference between the sales
charge applicable to the fund into which the shares are being exchanged and any
sales charges previously paid for the exchanged shares, including any sales
charges incurred on any earlier exchanges of the shares (unless such sales
charge is otherwise waived, as provided in "Other
16
<PAGE> 194
Circumstances"). The exchange of Fiduciary Class shares for Class A shares also
will require payment of the sales charge unless the sales charge is waived, as
provided in "Other Circumstances."
CLASS B
Class B Shareholders of the Fund may exchange their shares for Class B shares of
any other fund of the Trust on the basis of the net asset value of the exchanged
Class B shares, without the payment of any Contingent Deferred Sales Charge that
might otherwise be due upon redemption of the outstanding Class B shares. The
newly acquired Class B shares will be subject to the higher Contingent Deferred
Sales Charge of either the fund from which the shares were exchanged or the fund
into which the shares were exchanged. With respect to outstanding Class B shares
as to which previous exchanges have taken place, "higher Contingent Deferred
Sales Charge" shall mean the higher of the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge
applicable to either the fund the shares are exchanging into or any other fund
from which the shares previously have been exchanged. For purposes of computing
the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge that may be payable upon a disposition of
the newly acquired Class B shares, the holding period for outstanding Class B
shares of the fund from which the exchange was made is "tacked" to the holding
period of the newly acquired Class B shares. For purposes of calculating the
holding period applicable to the newly acquired Class B shares, the newly
acquired Class B shares shall be deemed to have been issued on the date of
receipt of the Shareholder's order to purchase the outstanding Class B shares of
the fund from which the initial exchange was made.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING EXCHANGES
In the case of shares held of record by a Shareholder Servicing Agent but
beneficially owned by a Shareholder, to exchange such shares the Shareholder
should contact the Shareholder Servicing Agent, who will contact the Transfer
Agent and effect the exchange on behalf of the Shareholder. If an exchange
request in good order is received by the Transfer Agent by 4:00 p.m., eastern
time, on any Business Day, the exchange usually will occur on that day. Any
Shareholder who wishes to make an exchange must receive a current prospectus of
the fund of the Trust in which he or she wishes to invest before the exchange
will be effected.
The Trust reserves the right to change the terms or conditions of the exchange
privilege discussed herein upon sixty days' written notice. An exchange between
classes of shares of the same fund is not considered a taxable event; however,
an exchange between funds of the Trust is considered a sale of shares and
usually results in a capital gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes.
Shareholders should consult their tax advisers for a more complete explanation
of the Federal income tax consequences of an exchange of shares of the Fund.
A more detailed description of the above is set forth in the Statement of
Additional Information.
REDEMPTIONS
Shareholders may redeem their shares without charge (except Class B shares, as
provided above) on any Business Day; shares may ordinarily be redeemed by mail,
by telephone or by wire. All redemption orders are effected at the net asset
value per share next determined for Class A and Fiduciary Class shares, and at
net asset value per share next determined reduced by any applicable Contingent
Deferred Sales Charge for Class B shares, after receipt of a valid request for
redemption. Payment to Shareholders for shares redeemed will be made within
seven days after receipt by the Transfer Agent of the request for redemption.
BY MAIL
A written request for redemption must be received by the Transfer Agent in
order to constitute a valid request for redemption. All written redemption
requests should be sent to The One Group(R), c/o State Street Bank and Trust
Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500, or the Shareholder Servicing
Agent, if applicable. The Transfer Agent may require that the signature on the
written request be guaranteed by a commercial bank, a member firm of a domestic
stock exchange, or by a member of the Securities Transfer Association Medallion
Program or the Stock Exchange Medallion Program.
The signature guarantee requirement will be waived if all of the following
conditions apply: (i) the redemption is for $5,000 worth of shares or less; (ii)
the redemption check is payable to the Shareholder(s) of record; and (iii) the
redemption check is mailed to the Shareholder(s) at the address of record. The
Shareholder may also have the proceeds mailed to a commercial bank account
previously designated on the Account Application Form or by written instruction
to the Transfer Agent or the Shareholder Servicing Agent, if applicable. There
is no charge for having redemption requests mailed to a designated bank account.
BY TELEPHONE OR BY WIRE
Shareholders may have the payment of redemption requests wired or mailed to a
domestic commercial bank account previously designated on the Account
Application Form. Wire redemption requests may be made by the Shareholder by
telephone to the
17
<PAGE> 195
Transfer Agent at 1-800-480-4111, provided that the Shareholder has elected the
telephone redemption privilege in writing to the Distributor, or to the
Shareholder Servicing Agent, if applicable. The Transfer Agent may reduce the
amount of a wire redemption payment by its then-current wire redemption charge,
which, as of the date of this Prospectus, is $7.00.
Neither the Trust nor the Transfer Agent will be responsible for the
authenticity of the redemption instructions received by telephone if it
reasonably believes those instructions to be genuine. The Trust and the Transfer
Agent will each employ reasonable procedures to confirm that telephone
instructions are genuine, and may be liable for losses resulting from
unauthorized or fraudulent telephone transactions if it does not employ those
procedures. Such procedures may include requesting personal identification
information or recording telephone conversations.
SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PLAN
Shareholders whose accounts have a value of at least $10,000 may elect to
receive, or may designate another person to receive, monthly, quarterly or
annual payments in a specified amount of not less than $100 each. There is no
charge for this service. Under the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, all dividends and
distributions must be reinvested in shares of the Fund. Purchases of additional
Class A or Class B shares while the Systematic Withdrawal Plan is in effect are
generally undesirable because a sales charge is incurred whenever purchases are
made.
Pursuant to the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, Class B Shareholders may elect to
receive, or may designate another person to receive, distributions provided the
distributions are limited to no more than 10% of their account value annually,
determined in the first year as of the date the redemption request is received
by the Transfer Agent, and in subsequent years, as of the most recent
anniversary of that date.
In addition, Shareholders who have attained the age of 70 1/2 may elect to
receive distributions, to the extent that the redemption represents a minimum
required distribution from an Individual Retirement Account or other qualifying
retirement plan.
If the amount of systematic withdrawal exceeds income accrued since the previous
withdrawal under the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, the principal balance invested
will be reduced and shares will be redeemed.
OTHER INFORMATION REGARDING REDEMPTIONS
At various times, the Fund may be requested to redeem shares for which it has
not yet received good payment. In such circumstances, the forwarding of proceeds
may be delayed for 15 or more days until payment has been collected for the
purchase of such shares. The Fund intends to pay cash for all shares redeemed.
Due to the relatively high costs of handling small investments, the Fund
reserves the right to redeem, at net asset value, the shares of any Shareholder
if, because of redemptions of shares by or on behalf of the Shareholder, the
account of such Shareholder in the Fund has a value of less than $1,000, the
minimum initial purchase amount. Accordingly, an investor purchasing shares of
the Fund in only the minimum investment amount may be subject to such
involuntary redemption if he or she thereafter redeems any of these shares.
Before the Fund exercises its right to redeem such shares and to send the
proceeds to the Shareholder, the Shareholder will be given notice that the value
of the shares in his or her account is less than the minimum amount and will be
allowed 60 days to make an additional investment in the Fund in an amount which
will increase the value of the account to at least $1,000.
See the Statement of Additional Information for examples of when the Trust may
suspend the right of redemption or redeem shares involuntarily if it appears
appropriate to do so in light of the Trust's responsibilities under the
Investment Company Act of 1940.
FUND MANAGEMENT
THE ADVISER
The Trust and Banc One Investment Advisors Corporation (the "Adviser") have
entered into an investment advisory agreement (the "Advisory Agreement"). Under
the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser makes the investment decisions for the
assets of the Fund and continuously reviews, supervises and administers the
Fund's investment program. The Adviser discharges its responsibilities subject
to the supervision of, and policies established by, the Trustees of the Trust.
The Trust's shares are not deposits or obligations of, or endorsed or guaranteed
by BANC ONE CORPORATION or its bank or non-bank affiliates. The Trust's shares
are not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
("FDIC") or by any other governmental agency or government sponsored agency of
the Federal government or any state.
18
<PAGE> 196
The Adviser is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of BANC ONE CORPORATION, a
bank holding company incorporated in the state of Ohio. BANC ONE CORPORATION
currently has affiliate banking organizations in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois,
Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Ohio, Oklahoma, Texas, Utah, West Virginia and
Wisconsin. In addition, BANC ONE CORPORATION has several affiliates that engage
in data processing, venture capital, investment and merchant banking, and other
diversified services including trust management, investment management,
brokerage, equipment leasing, mortgage banking, consumer finance and insurance.
On a consolidated basis, BANC ONE CORPORATION had assets of over $90.5 billion
as of December 31, 1995.
The Adviser represents a consolidation of the investment advisory staffs of a
number of bank affiliates of BANC ONE CORPORATION, which have considerable
experience in the management of open-end management investment company
portfolios, including The One Group(R) since 1985 (then known as "The Helmsman
Fund").
No single person is responsible for managing the assets of the Fund. Rather,
investment decisions for the Fund are made by committee.
The Adviser is entitled to a fee which is calculated daily and paid monthly, at
an annual rate of .05% of the average daily net assets of the Fund.
The Adviser also serves as investment adviser to each of the Underlying Funds.
As a shareholder of each of the Underlying Funds, the Fund will indirectly bear
its proportionate share of investment advisory fees paid by those funds. The
Underlying Funds pay the Adviser an advisory fee at the following rates:
<TABLE>

</TABLE>
THE DISTRIBUTOR
The One Group(R) Services Company (the "Distributor"), a wholly-owned subsidiary
of the BISYS Group, Inc., and the Trust are parties to a distribution agreement
(the "Distribution Agreement") under which shares of the Fund are sold on a
continuous basis.
Class A shares are subject to a distribution and Shareholder services plan (the
"Plan"). As provided in the Plan, the Trust will pay the Distributor a fee of
.35% of the average daily net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. Currently,
the Distributor has voluntarily agreed to limit payments under the Plan to .25%
of the average daily net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. Up to .25% of the
fees payable under the Plan may be used as compensation for Shareholder services
by the Distributor and/or financial institutions and intermediaries. All such
fees that may be paid under the Plan will be paid pursuant to Rule 12b-1 of the
Investment Company Act of 1940. The Distributor may apply these fees toward: (i)
compensation for its services in connection with distribution assistance or
provision of Shareholder services; or (ii) payments to financial institutions
and intermediaries such as banks (including affiliates of the Advisor), savings
and loan associations, insurance companies, investment counselors,
broker-dealers, and the Distributor's affiliates and subsidiaries, as
compensation for services or reimbursement of expenses incurred in connection
with distribution assistance or provision of Shareholder services.
Class B shares are subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge if such shares
are redeemed prior to the sixth anniversary of purchase. Class B shares of the
Fund are subject to an ongoing distribution and Shareholder service fee as
provided in the Class B distribution and Shareholder services plan (the "Class B
Plan") at an annual rate of 1.00% of the Fund's average daily net assets, which
includes Shareholder servicing fees of .25% of the Fund's average daily net
assets.
19
<PAGE> 197
Proceeds from the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the distribution and
Shareholder service fees under the Class B Plan are payable to the Distributor
and financial intermediaries to defray the expenses of advance brokerage
commissions and expenses related to providing distribution-related and
Shareholder services to the Fund in connection with the sale of Class B shares,
such as the payment of compensation to dealers and agents for selling Class B
shares. The combination of the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the
distribution and Shareholder service fees facilitate the ability of the Fund to
sell the Class B shares without a sales charge being deducted at the time of
purchase.
The Plan and the Class B Plan are characterized as compensation plans since the
distribution fees will be paid to the Distributor without regard to the
distribution or Shareholder service expenses incurred by the Distributor or the
amount of payments made to financial institutions and intermediaries. The Fund
also may execute brokerage or other agency transactions through an affiliate of
the Advisor or through the Distributor for which the affiliate or the
Distributor receives compensation. Pursuant to guidelines adopted by the Board
of Trustees of the Trust, any such compensation will be reasonable and fair
compared to compensation received by other brokers in connection with comparable
transactions.
Fiduciary Class shares of the Fund are offered without distribution fees to
institutional investors, including Authorized Financial Organizations. It is
possible that an institution may offer different classes of shares to its
customers and thus receive different compensation with respect to different
classes of shares. In addition, a financial institution that is the record owner
of shares for the account of its customers may impose separate fees for account
services to its customers.
THE ADMINISTRATOR
The One Group(R) Services Company, (the "Administrator"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the BISYS Group, Inc., and the Trust are parties to an
administration agreement relating to the Fund (the "Administration Agreement").
Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, the Administrator is
responsible for providing the Trust with administrative services (other than
investment advisory services), including regulatory reporting and all necessary
office space, equipment, personnel and facilities.
The Adviser also serves as Sub-Administrator to each fund of the Trust, pursuant
to an agreement between the Administrator and the Adviser. Pursuant to this
agreement, the Adviser performs many of the Administrator's duties, for which
the Adviser receives a fee paid by the Administrator.
The Administrator is entitled to a fee for administrative services, which is
calculated daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of .10% of the Fund's
average daily net assets on the first $500,000,000 in Fund assets, .075% of the
Fund's average daily net assets between $500,000,000 and $1 billion, and .05% of
the Fund's average daily net assets when Fund assets exceed $1 billion.

OTHER INFORMATION
THE TRUST
The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts Business Trust under a Declaration of
Trust filed on May 23, 1985. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trust to offer
separate funds and different classes of each fund. All consideration received by
the Trust for shares of any fund and all assets of such fund belong to that fund
and would be subject to liabilities related thereto.
The Trust pays its expenses, including fees of its service providers, audit and
legal expenses, expenses of preparing prospectuses, proxy solicitation material
and reports to Shareholders, costs of custodial services and registering the
shares under Federal and state securities laws, pricing, insurance expenses,
litigation and other extraordinary expenses, brokerage costs, interest charges,
taxes and organizational expenses.

<PAGE> 198
The Adviser and the Administrator of the Fund each bears all expenses incurred
in connection with the performance of their services as investment adviser and
administrator, respectively, other than the cost of securities (including
brokerage commissions, if any) purchased for the Fund.
As a general matter, as set forth in the Multiple Class Plan, expenses are
allocated to each class of shares of the Fund on the basis of the net asset
value of that class in relation to the net asset value of the Fund. At present,
the only expenses that are allocated to Class A and Class B shares, other than
in accordance with the relative net asset value of the class, are the
distribution and Shareholder services costs. See "Expense Summary." At present,
no expenses are allocated to Fiduciary Class shares as a class that are not also
borne by the other classes of shares of the Fund in proportion to the relative
net asset value of the shares of such classes.
The organizational expenses of the Fund have been capitalized and are being
amortized in the first five years of the Fund's operations. Such amortization
will reduce the amount of income available for payment as dividends.
TRUSTEES OF THE TRUST
The management and affairs of the Trust are supervised by the Trustees under the
laws governing business trusts in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The
Trustees have approved contracts under which, as described above, certain
companies provide essential management services to the Trust.
VOTING RIGHTS
As set forth in the Multiple Class Plan, each share held entitles the
Shareholder of record to one vote. Each fund of the Trust will vote separately
on matters relating solely to that fund. In addition, each class of a fund shall
have exclusive voting rights on any matter submitted to Shareholders that
relates solely to that class, and shall have separate voting rights on any
matter submitted to Shareholders in which the interests of one class differ from
the interests of any other class. However, all fund Shareholders will have equal
voting rights on matters that affect all fund Shareholders equally. As a
Massachusetts Business Trust, the Trust is not required to hold annual meetings
of Shareholders but approval will be sought for certain changes in the operation
of the Trust and for the election of Trustees under certain circumstances. In
addition, a Trustee may be elected or removed by the remaining Trustees or by
Shareholders at a special meeting called upon written request of Shareholders
owning at least 10% of the outstanding shares of the Trust. In the event that
such a meeting is requested, the Trust will provide appropriate assistance and
information to the Shareholders requesting the meeting.
DIVIDENDS
Net investment income (exclusive of capital gains) is declared daily, and is
determined and distributed in the form of monthly dividends to Shareholders of
Record on the first Business Day of each month. Capital gains of the Fund, if
any, will be distributed at least annually.
To maintain a relatively even rate of distributions from the Fund rather than
having substantial fluctuations from period to period, the monthly distributions
level from the Fund may be fixed from time to time at rates consistent with the
Adviser's long-term earnings expectations.
Shareholders automatically receive all income dividends and capital gain
distributions in additional Class A, Class B or Fiduciary Class shares, as
applicable, at the net asset value next determined following the record date,
unless the Shareholder has elected to take such payment in cash. Such election,
or any revocation thereof, must be made in writing, at least 15 days prior to
distribution, to the Transfer Agent at P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500, and
will become effective with respect to dividends and distributions having record
dates after its receipt by the Transfer Agent. Reinvested dividends and
distributions receive the same tax treatment as dividends and distributions paid
in cash.
Class B shares received as dividends and capital gains distributions at net
asset value next determined following the record date shall be held in a
separate Class B sub-account. Each time any Class B shares (other than those in
the sub-account) convert to Class A shares, a pro-rata portion of the Class B
shares in the sub-account will also convert to Class A shares. See "Conversion
Feature."
Dividends and distributions of the Fund are paid on a per-share basis. The value
of each share will be reduced by the amount of the payment. If shares are
purchased shortly before the record date for a dividend or the distribution of
capital gains, a Shareholder will pay the full price for the shares and receive
some portion of the price back as a taxable dividend or distribution even though
such distribution would, in effect, represent a return of the Shareholder's
investment.
The amount of dividends payable on Fiduciary Class shares will be more than the
dividends payable on Class A and Class B shares because of the distribution
expenses charged to Class A and Class B shares.

SHAREHOLDER INQUIRIES
Shareholder inquiries should be directed to the Administrator, The One Group(R)
Services Company, 3435 Stelzer Road, Columbus, OH 43219.
REPORTING
The Trust issues unaudited financial information semiannually and audited
financial statements annually. The Trust furnishes proxy statements and other
reports to Shareholders of record.
OTHER INVESTMENT POLICIES
PORTFOLIO TURNOVER
Portfolio turnover may vary greatly from year to year as well as within a
particular year. It is presently estimated that the annual portfolio turnover
rate for the Fund will not exceed 80%.
INVESTMENT LIMITATIONS
The investment objective and the following investment limitations are
fundamental policies of the Fund. Fundamental policies cannot be changed without
the consent of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding shares. The
term "majority of the outstanding shares" means the vote of (i) 67% or more of
the Fund's shares present at a meeting, if more that 50% of the outstanding
shares of the Fund are present or represented by proxy, or (ii) more than 50% of
the Fund's outstanding shares, whichever is less.
The Fund may not:
1. Purchase securities of any issuer (except securities issued or guaranteed by
the United States, its agencies or instrumentalities, securities of regulated
investment companies, and if consistent with the Fund's investment objective
and policies, repurchase agreements involving such securities) if as a result
more than 25% of the total assets of the Fund would be invested in the
securities of such issuer. This restriction applies to 50% of the Fund's total
assets. With respect to the remaining 50% of its total assets, the Fund may not
purchase the securities of any issuer if as a result more than 5% of the total
assets of the Fund would be invested in the securities of such issuer. For
purposes of this limitation, a security is considered to be issued by the
government entity whose assets and revenues guarantee or back the security.
With respect to private activity bonds or industrial development bonds backed
only by the assets and revenues of a non-governmental user, such user would be
considered the issuer.
2. Purchase any securities that would cause more than 25% of the total assets of
the Fund to be invested in the securities of one or more issuers conducting
their principal business activities in the same industry, except for investments
in funds of The One Group(R), provided that this limitation does not apply to
investments in obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its
agencies and instrumentalities and repurchase agreements involving such
securities. For purposes of this limitation (i) utilities will be divided
according to their services (for example, gas, gas transmission, electric and
telephone will each be considered a separate industry); and (ii) wholly-owned
finance companies will be considered to be in the industries of their parents if
their activities are primarily related to financing the activities of their
parents.
3. Make loans, except that the Fund may (i) purchase or hold debt instruments in
accordance with its investment objective and policies; (ii) enter into
repurchase agreements; and (iii) engage in securities lending as described in
this Prospectus and in the Statement of Additional Information.
The foregoing percentages will apply at the time of the purchase of a security.
Additional investment limitations are set forth in the Statement of Additional
Information. For the investment limitations of the Underlying Funds, see the
applicable prospectuses.
DESCRIPTION OF PERMITTED INVESTMENTS
The following is a description of certain of the permitted investments for the
Underlying Funds. As described above in "Investment Policies of the Fund -
Permissible Investments," the Fund may also invest directly in certain of the
following instruments for temporary defensive purposes. For a more detailed
description, see the Statement of Additional Information or the prospectuses of
the Underlying Funds.
U.S. TREASURY OBLIGATIONS -- The funds may invest in bills, notes and bonds
issued by the U.S. Treasury and separately traded interest and principal
component parts of such obligations that are transferable through the Federal
book-entry system known as Separately Traded Registered Interest and Principal
Securities ("STRIPS") and Coupon Under Book Entry Safekeeping ("CUBES").
RECEIPTS -- The funds may purchase interests in separately traded interest and
principal component parts of U.S. Treasury obligations that are issued by banks
or brokerage firms and are created by depositing U.S. Treasury notes and U.S.
Treasury bonds into a special
22
<PAGE> 200
account at a custodian bank. Receipts include Treasury Receipts ("TRS"),
Treasury Investment Growth Receipts ("TIGRS"), and Certificates of Accrual on
Treasury Securities ("CATS").
CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT -- Certificates of deposit ("CDs") are negotiable
interest bearing instruments with a specific maturity. CDs are issued by banks
and savings and loan institutions in exchange for the deposit of funds and
normally can be traded in the secondary market prior to maturity.
TIME DEPOSITS -- Time deposits are non-negotiable receipts issued by a bank in
exchange for the deposit of funds. Like a certificate of deposit, a time deposit
("TD") earns a specified rate of interest over a definite period of time;
however, it cannot be traded in the secondary market.
BANKERS' ACCEPTANCES -- Bankers' acceptances are bills of exchange or time
drafts drawn on and accepted by (i.e., made an obligation of) a commercial bank.
Maturities are generally six months or less.
COMMERCIAL PAPER -- Commercial paper is the term used to designate unsecured
short-term promissory notes issued by corporations and other entities.
Maturities on these issues vary from a few days to nine months.
U.S. GOVERNMENT AGENCIES -- Certain Federal agencies have been established as
instrumentalities of the U.S. government to supervise and finance specific types
of activities. Select agencies, such as the Government National Mortgage
Association ("Ginnie Mae") and the Export-Import Bank, are supported by the full
faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury; others, such as the Federal National
Mortgage Association ("Fannie Mae"), are supported by the credit of the
instrumentality and have the right to borrow from the U.S. Treasury; others are
supported by the authority of the U.S. government to purchase the agency's
obligations; while still others, such as the Federal Farm Credit Banks and the
Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac"), are supported solely by
the credit of the instrumentality itself. No assurance can be given that the
U.S. government would provide financial support to U.S. government sponsored
agencies or instrumentalities if it is not obligated to do so by law.
Obligations of U.S. government agencies include debt issues and mortgage-backed
securities issued or guaranteed by select agencies.
CORPORATE SECURITIES -- Corporate securities include corporate bonds,
convertible and non-convertible debt securities, and preferred stocks, as well
as commercial paper (short-term promissory notes issued by corporations).
Issuers of corporate bonds and notes are divided into many different categories
by bond market sector, such as electric utilities, gas utilities, telephone
utilities, consumer finance companies, wholesale finance companies and
industrial companies. Within each major category of issuer, there are many
subcategories.
WARRANTS -- Warrants are securities, typically issued with preferred stock or
bonds, that give the holder the right to buy a proportionate amount of common
stock at a specified price, usually at a price that is higher than the market
price at the time of issuance of the warrant. The right may last for a period of
years or indefinitely.
COMMON STOCK -- Common stock represents a share of ownership in a company and
usually carries voting rights and earns dividends. Unlike preferred stock,
dividends on common stock are not fixed but are declared at the discretion of
the issuer's board of directors.
INVESTMENT COMPANY SECURITIES -- The funds may invest up to 5% of their total
assets in the securities of any one investment company, but may not own more
than 3% of the securities of any one investment company or invest more than 10%
of their assets in the securities of other investment companies.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- Repurchase agreements are agreements by which a person
obtains a security and simultaneously commits to return the security to the
seller at an agreed upon price (including principal and interest) on an agreed
upon date within a number of days from the date of purchase. The custodian or
its agent will hold the security as collateral for the repurchase agreement.
Collateral must be maintained at a value at least equal to 100% of the
repurchase price. The funds bear a risk of loss in the event the other party
defaults on its obligations and the funds are delayed or prevented from their
right to dispose of the collateral securities or if the funds realize a loss on
the sale of the collateral securities.
REVERSE REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS - The funds may borrow funds for temporary
purposes by entering into reverse repurchase agreements. Pursuant to such
agreements, the funds would sell portfolio securities to financial institutions
such as banks and broker-dealers, and agree to repurchase them at a mutually
agreed-upon date and price. The funds will enter into reverse repurchase
agreements only to avoid otherwise selling securities during unfavorable market
conditions to meet redemptions. At the time the funds enter into a reverse
repurchase agreement, they would place liquid high grade debt securities having
a value equal to the repurchase price (including accrued interest), in a
segregated custodial account and would subsequently monitor the account to
ensure that such equivalent value is maintained. Reverse repurchase agreements
involve the risk that the market value of the securities sold by the funds may
decline below the price at which the funds are obligated to repurchase the
securities.
23
<PAGE> 201
DEMAND FEATURES - The funds may acquire securities that are subject to puts and
standby commitments ("demand features") to purchase the securities at their
principal amount at a fixed price (usually with accrued interest) within a fixed
period (usually seven days) following a demand by the funds. The purpose of
engaging in transactions involving puts is to maintain flexibility and liquidity
to permit the funds to meet redemption requests and remain as fully invested as
possible.
ASSET-BACKED SECURITIES - Asset-backed securities consist of securities secured
by company receivables, home equity loans, truck and auto loans, leases, credit
card receivables and other securities backed by other types of receivables or
other assets. These securities are generally pass-through securities, which
means that principal and interest payments on the underlying securities (less
servicing fees) are passed through to shareholders on a pro rata basis. These
securities involve prepayment risk, which is the risk that the underlying debt
will be refinanced or paid off prior to their maturities during periods of
declining interest rates. In that case, a portfolio manager may have to reinvest
the proceeds from the securities at a lower rate. Potential market gains on a
security subject to prepayment risk may be more limited than potential market
gains on a comparable security that is not subject to prepayment risk. Under
certain interest rate and prepayment rate scenarios, the funds may fail to
recoup fully their investment in asset-backed securities. Asset-backed
securities are commonly considered to be derivatives.
SHORT-TERM FUNDING AGREEMENTS - The funds may, in order to enhance yield, make
limited investments in short-term funding agreements issued by banks and highly
rated insurance companies. Short-term funding agreements issued by insurance
companies are sometimes referred to as Guaranteed Investment Contracts ("GICs"),
while those issued by banks are referred to as Bank Investment Contracts
("BICs"). Pursuant to such agreements, the funds make cash contributions to a
deposit account at a bank or insurance company. The bank or insurance company
then credits to the funds on a monthly basis guaranteed interest at either a
fixed, variable or floating rate. These contracts are general obligations of the
issuing bank or insurance company and are paid from the general assets of the
issuing entity. The funds will purchase short-term funding agreements only from
banks and insurance companies which, at the time of purchase, are rated "A" or
the equivalent by at least one NRSRO and have assets of $1 billion or more.
Generally, there is no active secondary market in short-term funding agreements.
SECURITIES OF FOREIGN ISSUERS -- The funds may invest in securities of foreign
issuers to achieve income or capital appreciation. The funds also may invest in
commercial paper of foreign issuers and obligations of foreign branches of U.S.
banks, U.S. and London branches of foreign banks, and supranational entities
which are established through the joint participation of several governments
(e.g., the Asian Development Bank and the Inter-American Development Bank).
Securities of foreign issuers may include sponsored and unsponsored American
Depository Receipts ("ADRs"), which are securities typically issued by a U.S.
financial institution that evidence ownership interests in a pool of securities
issued by a foreign issuer. ADRs include American Depository Shares and New York
Shares. There may be less information available on the foreign issuers of
unsponsored ADRs than on the issuers of sponsored ADRs.
MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES--Mortgage-backed securities are debt obligations
secured by real estate loans and pools of loans. The funds may acquire
securities representing an interest in a pool of mortgage loans that are issued
or guaranteed by Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Mortgage-backed
securities may also be issued by non-governmental entities and may or may not
have private insurer guarantees of timely payments. The funds also may invest in
mortgage-backed securities issued by non-government entities, which consist of
Collateralized Mortgage Obligations ("CMOs") and Real Estate Mortgage Investment
Conduits ("REMICs"). Mortgage-backed securities are in most cases "pass-through"
instruments, through which the holder receives a share of all interest and
principal payments from the mortgages underlying the certificate. Because the
prepayment characteristics of the underlying mortgages vary, it is not possible
to predict accurately the average life or realized yield of a particular issue
of pass-through certificates. During periods of declining interest rates,
prepayment of mortgages underlying mortgage-backed securities can be expected to
accelerate. When the mortgage obligations are prepaid, the funds may have to
reinvest in securities with a lower yield. Moreover, prepayment of mortgages
which underlie securities purchased at a premium could result in capital losses.
STRIPPED MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES--The funds may, to enhance revenues or hedge
against interest rate risk, invest in stripped mortgage-backed securities
("SMBS"), which are derivative multi-class mortgage securities. The funds may
only invest in SMBS issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies or
instrumentalities. SMBS are usually structured with two classes that receive
different proportions of the interest and principal distributions from a pool of
mortgage assets. A common type of SMBS will have one class receiving all of the
interest from the mortgage assets ("IOs"), while the other class will receive
all of the principal ("POs"). If the underlying mortgage assets experience
greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, the funds may fail to fully
recoup their initial investment in these securities. Although the market for
such securities is increasingly liquid, certain SMBS may not be readily
marketable and will be considered illiquid for purposes of the funds'
limitations on investments in illiquid securities. The market value of the class
consisting entirely of principal payments generally is unusually volatile in
response to changes in interest rates.
MORTGAGE DOLLAR ROLLS--The funds may enter into mortgage "dollar rolls" in which
the funds sell securities for delivery in the current month and simultaneously
contract with the same counterparty to repurchase similar (same type, coupon and
maturity) but not identical securities on a specified future date. The funds
benefit to the extent of any difference between the price received for the
24
<PAGE> 202
securities sold and the lower forward price for the future purchase (often
referred to as the "drop") or fee income plus the interest earned on the cash
proceeds of the securities sold until the settlement date of the forward
purchase. Unless such benefits exceed the income, capital appreciation and gain
or loss due to mortgage prepayments that would have been realized on the
securities sold as part of the mortgage dollar roll, the use of this technique
will diminish the investment performance of the funds compared with what such
performance would have been without the use of mortgage dollar rolls.
FIXED RATE MORTGAGE LOANS--Generally, fixed rate mortgage loans eligible for
inclusion in a mortgage pool will bear simple interest at fixed annual rates and
have original terms to maturity ranging from 5 to 40 years. The funds may invest
in fixed rate mortgage loans that are privately issued and are not issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. government.
SECURITIES LENDING -- In order to generate additional income, the funds may lend
up to 33% of the securities in which they are invested pursuant to agreements
requiring that the loan be continuously secured by cash, securities of the U.S.
government or its agencies, shares of an investment trust or mutual fund or any
combination of cash and such securities as collateral equal at all times to at
least 100% of the market value plus accrued interest on the securities lent. The
funds will continue to receive interest on the securities lent while
simultaneously seeking to earn interest on the investment of cash collateral in
U.S. government securities, shares of an investment trust or mutual fund, or
other short-term, highly liquid investments. Collateral is marked to market
daily to provide a level of collateral at least equal to the market value of the
securities lent. There may be risks of delay in recovery of the securities or
even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the securities fail
financially. However, loans will only be made to borrowers deemed by the Adviser
to be of good standing under guidelines established by the Trust's Board of
Trustees and when, in the judgment of the Adviser, the consideration which can
be earned currently from such securities loans justifies the attendant risk. The
funds will enter into loan arrangements only with counterparties which the
Adviser has deemed to be creditworthy under guidelines established by the Board
of Trustees. Loans are subject to termination by the funds or the borrower at
any time, and are therefore, not considered to be illiquid investments.
RESTRICTED SECURITIES -- The funds may invest in commercial paper issued in
reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933. Section 4(2) commercial paper is restricted as to
disposition under Federal securities law and is generally sold to institutional
investors, such as the funds, who agree that they are purchasing the paper for
investment purposes and not with a view to public distribution.
VARIABLE AND FLOATING RATE INSTRUMENTS -- Certain of the obligations purchased
by the funds may carry variable or floating rates of interest, may involve a
conditional or unconditional demand feature and may include variable amount
master demand notes. The interest rates on these securities may be reset daily,
weekly, quarterly or some other reset period, and may have a floor or ceiling on
interest rate changes. There is a risk that the current interest rate on such
obligations may not accurately reflect existing market interest rates.
SECURITIES PURCHASED ON A WHEN-ISSUED BASIS AND FORWARD COMMITMENTS -- The funds
may purchase securities on a when-issued basis when deemed by the Adviser to
present attractive investment opportunities. When-issued securities are
purchased for delivery beyond the normal settlement date at a stated price and
yield, thereby involving the risk that the yield obtained will be less than that
available in the market at delivery. When the Adviser purchases a when-issued
security, the Custodian will set aside cash or liquid securities to satisfy the
purchase commitment. The funds generally will not pay for such securities or
earn interest on them until received. In a forward commitment transaction, the
funds contract to purchase securities for a fixed price at a future date beyond
customary settlement time. The funds are required to hold and maintain in a
segregated account until the settlement date, cash, U.S. government securities
or liquid high-grade debt obligations in an amount sufficient to meet the
purchase price. Alternatively, the funds may enter into offsetting contracts for
the forward sale of other securities that they own. The purchase of securities
on a when-issued or forward commitment basis involves a risk of loss if the
value of the security to be purchased declines prior to the settlement date.
OPTIONS -- The funds may purchase and write (i.e., sell) call options and put
options on securities and indices, which options are traded on national
securities exchanges. A call option gives the purchaser the right to buy, and
obligates the writer of the option to sell, the underlying security at the
agreed upon exercise (or "strike") price during the option period. A put option
gives the purchaser the right to sell, and obligates the writer to buy, the
underlying security at the strike price during the option period. There are
risks associated with options transactions, including the following: (i) the
success of a hedging strategy may depend on the ability of the Adviser to
predict movements in the prices of the individual securities, fluctuations in
markets and movements in interest rates; (ii) there may be an imperfect or no
correlation between the changes in market value of the securities held by the
funds and the prices of options; (iii) there may not be a liquid secondary
market for options; and (iv) while the funds will receive a premium when they
write covered call options, they may not participate fully in a rise in the
market value of the underlying security. It is expected that the funds will only
engage in option transactions with respect to permitted investments and related
indices.
FUTURES CONTRACTS AND RELATED OPTIONS -- Certain of the funds may enter into
futures contracts, options on futures contracts, index futures and options
thereon that are traded on an exchange regulated by the Commodities Futures
Trading Commission ("CFTC")
25
<PAGE> 203
if, to the extent that such futures and options are not for "bona fide hedging
purposes" (as defined by the CFTC), the aggregate initial margin and premiums on
such positions (excluding the amount by which options are in the money) do not
exceed 5% of the funds' total assets at current value. Options and futures can
be volatile instruments, and involve certain risks. If the Adviser applies a
hedge at an inappropriate time or judges interest rates incorrectly, options and
futures strategies may lower a fund's return. The funds could also experience
losses if the prices of their options and futures positions were poorly
correlated with their other instruments, or if they could not close out their
positions because of an illiquid secondary market.
SWAPS, CAPS AND FLOORS -- In order to protect the value of the funds from
interest rate fluctuations and to hedge against fluctuations in the floating
rate market in which the funds' investments are traded, the funds may enter into
swaps, caps, and floors on various securities (such as U.S. government
securities), securities indexes, interest rates, prepayment rates, foreign
currencies or other financial instruments or indexes, for both hedging and
non-hedging purposes. Swap contracts typically involve an exchange of
obligations by two sophisticated parties. For example, in an interest rate swap,
a fund may exchange with another party their respective rights to receive
interest, such as an exchange of fixed rate payments for floating rate payments.
Currency swaps involve the exchange of respective rights to make or receive
payments in specified currencies. Mortgage swaps are similar to interest rate
swaps in that they represent commitments to pay and receive interest. The
notional principal amount, however, is tied to a reference pool or pools of
mortgages.
Caps and floors are variations on swaps. The purchase of a cap entitles the
purchaser to receive a principal amount from the party selling the cap to the
extent that a specified index exceeds a predetermined interest rate or amount.
The purchase of an interest rate floor entitles the purchaser to receive
payments on a notional principal amount from the party selling the floor to the
extent that a specified index falls below a predetermined interest rate or
amount. Caps and floors are similar in many respects to over-the-counter options
transactions, and may involve investment risks that are similar to those
associated with options transactions and options on futures contracts.
NEW FINANCIAL PRODUCTS -- New options and futures contracts and other financial
products, and various combinations thereof, continue to be developed and the
funds may invest in any such options, contracts and products as may be developed
to the extent consistent with their investment objective, policies and
restrictions and the regulatory requirements applicable to investment companies.
These various products may be used to adjust the risk and return characteristics
of the funds' portfolio of investments. These various products may increase or
decrease exposure to security prices, interest rates, commodity prices, or other
factors that affect security values, regardless of the issuer's credit risk. If
market conditions do not perform consistent with expectations, the performance
of the funds would be less favorable than it would have been if these products
were not used. In addition, losses may occur if counterparties involved in
transactions do not perform as promised. These products may expose the funds to
potentially greater return as well as potentially greater risk of loss than more
traditional fixed-income investments.
STRUCTURED INSTRUMENTS - Structured instruments are debt securities issued by
agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government (such as Sallie Mae, Ginnie
Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac), banks, municipalities, corporations, and
other business entities whose interest and/or principal payments are indexed to
certain specific foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, or one or more
other reference indices. Structured instruments frequently are assembled in the
form of medium-term notes, but a variety of forms are available. Structured
instruments are commonly considered to be derivatives.
While structured instruments may offer the potential for a favorable rate of
return from time to time, they also entail certain risks. Structured instruments
may be less liquid than other debt securities, and the price of structured
instruments may be more volatile. If the value of the reference index changes in
a manner other than that expected by the Adviser, principal and/or interest
payments on the structured instrument may be substantially less than expected.
In addition, although structured instruments may be sold in the form of a
corporate debt obligation, they may not have some of the protection against
counterparty default that may be available with respect to publicly traded debt
securities (i.e., the existence of a trust indenture).
MUNICIPAL SECURITIES - Municipal Securities are issued by a state or political
subdivision to obtain funds for various public purposes. Municipal securities
are generally classified as "general obligation" bonds and "revenue" bonds.
General obligation bonds are obligations involving the credit of an issuer
possessing taxing power and are payable from the issuer's general unrestricted
revenues. Revenue bonds are payable only from the revenues derived from a
particular facility or class of facilities or, in some cases, from the proceeds
of a special excise or other specific revenue source. Revenue bonds are not
payable from the issuer's general revenues. The funds also may purchase
short-term tax-exempt General Obligation Notes, Tax Anticipation Notes, Bond
Anticipation Notes, Revenue Anticipation Notes, Project Notes, and other forms
of short-term tax-exempt obligations. Such notes are issued with a short-term
maturity in anticipation of the receipt of tax funds, the proceeds of bond
placements, or other revenues.
An issuer's obligations under its municipal securities are subject to the
provisions of bankruptcy, insolvency, and other laws affecting the rights and
remedies of creditors, such as the federal bankruptcy code, and laws, if any,
which may be enacted by Congress or state legislatures extending the time for
payment of principal or interest, or both, or imposing other constraints upon
the enforcement of such obligations. The power or ability of an issuer to meet
its obligations for the payment of interest on and principal of its municipal
26
<PAGE> 204
securities may be materially adversely affected by litigation or other
conditions. Such litigation or conditions may from time to time have the effect
of introducing uncertainties in the market for tax-exempt obligations or certain
segments thereof, or may materially affect the credit risk with respect to
particular bonds or notes. Adverse economic, business, legal or political
developments might affect all or a substantial portion of a fund's municipal
securities in the same manner. In addition, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code") imposes certain continuing requirements on issuers of
tax-exempt bonds regarding the use, expenditure and investment of bond proceeds
and the payment of rebates to the United States of America. Failure by the
issuer to comply subsequent to the issuance of tax-exempt bonds with certain of
these requirements could cause interest on the bonds to become includable in
gross income retroactive to the date of issuance.
INVERSE FLOATING RATE INSTRUMENTS -- The funds may seek to increase yield by
investing in leveraged inverse floating rate debt instruments ("inverse
floaters"). The interest rate on an inverse floater resets in the opposite
direction from the market rate of interest to which the inverse floater is
indexed. An inverse floater may be considered to be leveraged to the extent that
its interest rate varies by a magnitude that exceeds the magnitude of the change
in the index rate of interest. The higher degree of leverage inherent in inverse
floaters is associated with greater volatility in their market values.
Accordingly, the duration of an inverse floater may exceed its stated final
maturity.
DESCRIPTION OF RATINGS
The following descriptions are summaries of published ratings.
DESCRIPTION OF COMMERCIAL PAPER RATINGS
The following descriptions of commercial paper ratings have been published by
Standard & Poor's Corporation ("S&P"), Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's"),
Fitch's Investors Service ("Fitch"), Duff and Phelps ("Duff"), and IBCA Limited
("IBCA"), respectively.
Commercial paper rated A by S&P is regarded by S&P as having the greatest
capacity for timely payment. Issues rated A are further refined by use of the
numbers 1+, 1 and 2 to indicate the relative degree of safety. Issues rated A-1+
are those with an "overwhelming degree" of credit protection. Those rated A-1
reflect a "very strong" degree of safety regarding timely payment. Those rated
A-2 reflect a high degree of safety regarding timely payment but not as high as
A-1.
Commercial paper issues rated Prime-1 and Prime-2 by Moody's are judged by
Moody's to be of the "highest" quality and "higher" quality, respectively, on
the basis of relative repayment capacity.
The rating Fitch-1 (Highest Grade) is the highest commercial rating assigned by
Fitch. Paper rated Fitch-1 is regarded as having the strongest degree of
assurance for timely payment. The rating Fitch-2 (Very Good Grade) is the second
highest commercial paper rating assigned by Fitch which reflects an assurance of
timely payment only slightly less in degree than the strongest issues.
The rating Duff-1 is the highest commercial paper rating assigned by Duff. Paper
rated Duff-1 is regarded as having very high certainty of timely payment with
excellent liquidity factors which are supported by ample asset protection. Risk
factors are minor. Paper rated Duff-2 is regarded as having good certainty of
timely payment, good access to capital markets and sound liquidity factors and
company fundamentals. Risk factors are small.
The designation A1 by IBCA indicates that the obligation is supported by a very
strong capacity for timely repayment. Those obligations rated A1+ are supported
by the highest capacity for timely repayment. Obligations rated A2 are supported
by a strong capacity for timely repayment, although such capacity may be
susceptible to adverse changes in business, economic or financial conditions.
DESCRIPTION OF CORPORATE/MUNICIPAL BOND RATINGS
The following descriptions of S&P's and Moody's corporate and municipal bond
ratings have been published by S&P and Moody's, respectively.
Standard & Poor's Rating Services
Investment Grade
- ----------------
Bonds rated AAA have the highest rating S&P assigns to a debt obligation. Such a
rating indicates an extremely strong capacity to pay principal and interest.
Bonds rated AA also qualify as high-quality debt obligations. Capacity to pay
principal and interest is very strong, and in the majority of instances they
differ from AAA issues only in a small degree. Debt rated A has a strong
capacity
27
<PAGE> 205
to pay interest and repay principal although it is somewhat more susceptible to
the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than
debt in higher rated categories.
Bonds rated BBB by S&P are regarded as having an adequate capacity to pay
interest and repay principal. Whereas it normally exhibits adequate protection
parameters, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more
likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay interest and repay principal for
bonds in this category than in higher categories.
Non-Investment Grade
- --------------------
Bonds rated BB have less near-term vulnerability to default than other
speculative issues. However, they face major ongoing uncertainties or exposure
to adverse business, financial or economic conditions which could lead to
inadequate capacity to meet timely interest and principal payments. The BB rated
category is also used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an
actual or implied BBB rating.
Bonds rated B have a greater vulnerability to default but currently have the
capacity to meet interest payments and principal repayments. Adverse business,
financial or economic conditions will likely impair capacity or willingness to
pay interest and repay principal. The B rating category is also used for debt
subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an actual or implied BB or BB-
rating.
Bonds rated CCC have currently identifiable vulnerability to default, and are
dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions to meet
timely payment of interest and repayment of principal. In the event of adverse
business, financial, or economic conditions, they are not likely to have the
capacity to pay interest and repay principal. The CCC rating category is also
used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an actual or implied
B or B- rating.
The rating CC typically is applied to debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied CCC rating.
The rating C typically is applied to debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied CCC rating. The C rating may be used to cover a
situation where a bankruptcy petition has been filed, but debt service payments
are continued.
The rating C1 is reserved for income bonds on which no interest is being paid.
Bonds rated D are in payment default. The D rating category is used when
interest payments or principal payments are not made on the date due, even if
the applicable grace period has not expired, unless Standard & Poor believes
that such payments will be made during such grace period. The D rating also will
be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition if debt service payments are
jeopardized.
Plus (+) or minus (-). Ratings from AA to CCC may be modified by the addition of
a plus or minus sign to show relative standing within the major rating
categories.
Moody's Investor Service, Inc.
Investment Grade
- ----------------
Bonds that are rated Aaa by Moody's are judged to be of the best quality. They
carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally referred to as
"gilt edge." Interest payments are protected by a large, or an exceptionally
stable, margin and principal is secure. While the various protective elements
are likely to change, such changes as can be visualized are most unlikely to
impair the fundamentally strong position of such issues. Bonds rated Aa by
Moody's are judged by Moody's to be of high quality by all standards. Together
with bonds rated Aaa, they comprise what are generally known as high-grade
bonds. They are rated lower than the best bonds because margins of protection
may not be as large as in Aaa securities or fluctuation of protective elements
may be of greater amplitude or there may be other elements present that make the
long-term risks appear somewhat larger than in Aaa securities. Bonds that are
rated A possess many favorable investment attributes and are to be considered as
upper-medium grade obligations. Factors giving security to principal and
interest are considered adequate, but elements may be present which suggest a
susceptibility to impairment sometime in the future.
Bonds that are rated Baa by Moody's are considered as medium-grade obligations
(i.e., they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured). Interest payments
and principal security appear adequate for the present but certain protective
elements may be lacking or may be characteristically unreliable over any great
length of time. Such bonds lack outstanding investment characteristics and in
fact have speculative characteristics as well.
28
<PAGE> 206
Changes in economic conditions or other circumstances are more likely to lead to
a weakened capacity of the issuers of securities rated BBB or Baa to make
principal and interest payments than is the case with higher grade securities.
Non-Investment Grade
- --------------------
Bonds rated Ba are more uncertain and have speculative elements. The protection
of interest and principal payments is not well safeguarded during good and bad
times. Bonds rated B lack the characteristics of a desirable investment (i.e.,
potentially low assurance of timely interest and principal payments or
maintenance of other contract terms over time).
Bonds rated Caa have poor standing and may be in default. These bonds carry an
element of danger with respect to principal and interest payments. Bonds rated
Ca are speculative to a high degree and could be in default or have other marked
shortcomings. C is the lowest rating. Bonds in this category have extremely poor
prospects of ever attaining investment standing.
Unrated securities will be treated as non-investment grade securities unless the
Adviser determines that such securities are the equivalent of investment grade
securities. Securities that have received different ratings from more than one
agency are considered investment grade if at least one agency has rated the
security investment grade.
DESCRIPTION OF MUNICIPAL NOTE RATINGS
Moody's highest rating for state, municipal and other short-term notes is MIG-1
and VMIG-1. Short-term municipal securities rated MIG-1 or VMIG-1 are of the
best quality. They have strong protection from established cash flows of funds
for their servicing or from established and broad-based access to the market for
refinancing or both. Short-term municipal securities rated MIG-2 and VMIG-2 are
of high quality. Margins of protection are ample although not so large as in the
preceding group.
An S&P note rating reflects the liquidity concerns and market access risks
unique to notes. Notes due in three years or less will likely receive a note
rating. Notes maturing beyond three years will most likely receive a long-term
debt rating. The following criteria will be used in making that assessment:
o Amortization schedule (the larger the final maturity relative to other
maturities the more likely it will be treated as a note).
o Source of Payment (the more dependent the issue is on the market for
its refinancing, the more likely it will be treated as a note).
Note rating symbols are as follows:
SP-1 Very strong or strong capacity to pay principal and interest. Those issues
determined to possess overwhelming safety characteristics will be given a plus
(+) designation.
SP-2 Satisfactory capacity to pay principal and interest.
MISCELLANEOUS
PERFORMANCE
From time to time, the Fund may advertise yield, total return and/or
distribution rate. These figures will be based on historical earnings and are
not intended to indicate future performance. The yield of the Fund refers to the
annualized income generated by an investment in the Fund over a specified 30-day
period. The yield is calculated by assuming that the income generated by the
investment during that period is generated over a one-year period and is shown
as a percentage of the investment.
Total return is the change in value of an investment in the Fund over a given
period, assuming reinvestment of any dividends and capital gains. A cumulative
total return reflects an actual rate of return over a stated period of time. An
average annual total return is a hypothetical rate of return that, if achieved
annually, would have produced the same cumulative total return if performance
had been constant over the entire period. Average annual total returns smooth
out variations in performance; they are not the same as actual year-by-year
results.
The distribution rate is computed by dividing the total amount of the dividends
per share paid out during the past period by the maximum offering price or
month-end net asset value depending on the class of the Fund. This figure is
then "annualized" (multiplied by 365 days and divided by the applicable number
of days in the period). Funds with a front-end sales charge would incorporate
the offering price into the distribution yield in place of month-end net asset
value.
29
<PAGE> 207
Distribution rate is a measure of the level of income paid out in cash to
Shareholders over a specified period. It differs from yield and total return and
is not intended to be a complete measure of performance. Furthermore, the
distribution rate may include return of principal and/or capital gains. Total
return is the change in value of a hypothetical investment over a given period
assuming reinvestment of dividends and capital gain distributions. The yield
refers to the cumulative 30-day rolling net investment income, divided by
maximum offering price and multiplied by average shares outstanding during this
period. See the Statement of Additional Information.
The Trust will include information on all classes of shares of the Fund in any
advertisement or information including performance data for the Fund. The
performance for Fiduciary Class shares may be higher than for Class A shares and
Class B shares because Fiduciary Class shares are not subject to sales charges
and distribution expenses.
The performance of each class of the Fund may from time to time be compared to
that of other mutual funds tracked by mutual fund rating services, to that of
broad groups of comparable mutual funds or to that of unmanaged indices that may
assume investment of dividends but do not reflect deductions for administrative
and management costs. In addition, the performance of each class of the Fund may
be compared to other funds or to relevant indices that may calculate total
return without reflecting sales charges; in which case, the Fund may advertise
its total return in the same manner. If reflected, sales charges would reduce
these total return calculations.
TAXES
The following summary of Federal income tax consequences is based on current tax
laws and regulations, which may be changed by legislative, judicial or
administrative action. No attempt has been made to present a complete
explanation of the Federal, state, local or foreign tax treatment of the Fund or
its Shareholders. Accordingly, Shareholders are urged to consult their tax
advisers regarding specific questions as to the tax consequences of investing in
the Fund.
TAX STATUS OF THE FUND
The Fund is treated as a separate entity for Federal income tax purposes and is
not combined with the Trust's other funds. The Fund intends to qualify as a
"regulated investment company" for Federal income tax purposes and to meet all
other requirements that are necessary for it to be relieved of Federal taxes on
that part of its net investment income and net capital gains (the excess of net
long-term capital gain over net short-term capital loss) that is distributed to
Shareholders.
TAX STATUS OF DISTRIBUTIONS
The Fund will distribute substantially all of its net investment income
(including, for this purpose, net short-term capital gain) to Shareholders of
each class of shares of the Fund on at least an annual basis. Generally,
dividends from net investment income will be taxable to Shareholders as ordinary
income whether received in cash or in additional shares, and any net capital
gains will be distributed at least annually and will be taxed to Shareholders as
long-term capital gains, regardless of how long the Shareholder has held shares.
Distributions by the Fund to retirement plans that qualify for tax-exempt
treatment under the Code ("qualified retirement plans") will not be taxable. The
Federal tax treatment of qualified retirement plans, as well as distributions
from such plans, is governed by specific provisions of the Code. If shares are
held by a retirement plan that ceases to qualify for tax-exempt treatment under
the Code or by an individual who has received such shares as a distribution from
a retirement plan, the Fund's distributions will be taxable to such plan or
individual as described in the preceding paragraph. Persons considering
directing the investment of their qualified retirement plan account in the Fund
and qualified retirement plan trusts considering purchasing such shares, should
consult their tax advisers for a more complete explanation of the Federal tax
consequences, and for an explanation of the state, local and (if applicable)
foreign tax consequences of making such an investment.
The Fund will make annual reports to Shareholders of the Federal income tax
status of all distributions.
Certain securities purchased by the Fund (such as STRIPS, CUBES, TRS, TIGRS and
CATS), as defined in the "Description of Permitted Investments," are sold at
original issue discount and thus do not make periodic cash interest payments.
The Fund will be required to include as part of its current income the imputed
interest on such obligations even though the Fund has not received any interest
payments on such obligations during that period. Because the Fund distributes
substantially all of its net investment income to its Shareholders (including
such imputed interest), the Fund may have to sell portfolio securities in order
to generate the cash necessary for the required distributions. Such sales may
occur at a time when the Adviser would not have chosen to sell such securities
and may result in a taxable gain or loss.
30
<PAGE> 208
Dividends declared by the Fund in October, November or December of any year and
payable to Shareholders of record on a date in such a month will be deemed to
have been paid by the Fund and received by Shareholders on December 31 of that
year, if paid by the Fund at any time during the following January.
The Fund intends to make sufficient distributions prior to the end of each
calendar year to avoid liability for Federal excise tax.
Dividends received by a Shareholder that are derived from the Fund's investments
in U.S. government obligations may not be entitled to the exemptions from state
and local income taxes that would be available if the Shareholder had purchased
U.S. government obligations directly. The Fund will inform Shareholders annually
of the percentage of income and distributions derived from U.S. government
obligations. Shareholders should consult their tax advisers regarding the state
and local tax treatment of the dividends received from the Fund.
The Fund may be subject to foreign withholding taxes on income derived from
obligations of foreign issuers. The Fund will not be able to elect to treat
Shareholders as having paid their proportionate share of such foreign taxes.
Sale, exchange or redemption of Fund shares by a Shareholder will generally be a
taxable event to such Shareholder.

(1) A person who purchases shares through an account with a financial
institution or broker/dealer may be charged separate transaction fees
by the financial institution or broker/dealer. In addition, a wire
redemption charge, currently $7.00, is deducted from the amount of a
wire redemption payment made at the request of a Shareholder.
(2) A person who purchases $1 million or more of Class A shares and is not
assessed a sales charge at the time of purchase, will be assessed a
sales charge equivalent to 1% of the purchase price if such purchaser
redeems any or all of the Class A shares prior to the first
anniversary of purchase.
(3) Absent the voluntary waiver of fees under the Trust's Distribution and
Shareholder Services Plan, 12b-1 fees (as a percentage of average
daily net assets) would be .35% for Class A shares. The 12b-1 fees
include a Shareholder servicing fee of .25% of average daily net
assets of the Fund's Class B shares and may include a Shareholder
servicing fee of .25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's
Class A shares. See "The Distributor."
(4) Absent the voluntary 12b-1 fee waiver, Total Operating Expenses for
Class A shares would be .72%.

The Fund will indirectly bear its pro rata share of fees and expenses incurred
by the Underlying Funds, and the investment returns of the Fund will be net of
the expenses of the Underlying Funds. The following chart provides the expense
ratio for each of the Underlying Funds in which the Fund invests (based on
the current Underlying Fund prospectus). Certain of these expense ratios may
include a voluntary reduction of investment advisory fees.

THE FUND
The One Group(R) Investor Balanced Fund ( the "Fund") is part of The One
Group(R) (the "Trust"), which is an open-end management investment company that
offers shares in 39 separate funds and different classes of certain of the
funds. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts Business Trust on May 23,
1985. This Prospectus relates to Class A, Class B, and Fiduciary Class shares
of The One Group(R) Investor Balanced Fund. Each class of shares provides for
variations in distribution costs, voting rights, dividends and per share net
asset value pursuant to a multiple class plan (the "Multiple Class Plan")
adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Trust. Except for these differences
between classes, each share of the Fund represents an undivided, proportionate
interest in the Fund. The
5

DESCRIPTION OF THE UNDERLYING FUNDS
The following is a brief description of the principal investment policies of
the Underlying Funds. Additional investment practices are described in
"Investment Policies of the Underlying Funds," the Statement of Additional
Information and the prospectus for each of the Underlying Funds.
The One Group(R) International Equity Index Fund
The One Group(R) International Equity Index Fund is an equity fund. The
objective of the fund is to provide investment results that correspond to the
aggregate price and dividend performance of the securities in the Gross
Domestic Product Weighted Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe,
Australia and Far East Index ("MSCI EAFE GDP Index" or "EAFE GDP Index")(1)
Under normal conditions, the fund will invest substantially all of its assets
in foreign securities and at least 65% of the value of its total assets in
foreign equity securities, consisting of common stocks (including sponsored and
unsponsored American Depository Receipts ("ADRs")) and preferred stocks,
securities convertible into common stocks (only if they are listed on
registered exchanges or actively traded in the over-the-counter market),
warrants and depository receipts for such securities of issuers located in at
least three different countries. In attempting to duplicate the capital
performance and dividend income of the MSCI EAFE GDP Index, the fund will
normally invest in the stocks which comprise the Index and secondarily in stock
index futures. It is expected that cash reserve items normally will not exceed
10% of the fund's net assets. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its net assets
in securities of emerging international markets such as Mexico, Brazil and
Chile. A substantial portion of the fund's assets will be denominated in
foreign currencies.
The One Group(R) Large Company Growth Fund
The One Group(R) Large Company Growth Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation
and growth of income by investing primarily in equity securities. To achieve
its objective, the fund will, under normal market conditions, invest
substantially all, but in no event less than 65%, of the value of its total
assets in equity securities consisting of common stocks, warrants and any
rights to purchase common stocks. The weighted average capitalization of the
companies in which the fund invests will under normal market conditions always
be in excess of the market median capitalization of the Standard & Poor's 500
Composite Stock Price Index ("S&P 500 Index")(2) The fund may invest the
remainder of its assets in any combination of nonconvertible fixed income
securities, repurchase agreements, options and futures contracts.
The One Group(R) Large Company Value Fund
The One Group(R) Large Company Value Fund is an equity fund that seeks capital
appreciation with the incidental goal of achieving current income by investing
primarily in equity securities. The fund will invest in equity securities of
companies that are believed to be selling below their long-term intrinsic
investment values. Companies held will typically be large capitalization
issuers with current price/earnings and/or price/book ratios which are lower
than that of the general market as measured by the S&P 500 Index. In addition,
the fund may invest in stock of companies which have been analyzed to have
breakup values well in excess of current market values or which have uniquely
undervalued corporate assets. The general approach to purchasing stocks will
emphasize individual security selection. Macroeconomic data and industry profit
forecasts will be utilized to gauge the best sectors of the economy in which to
be positioned.
Under normal market conditions, the fund will invest at least 80% of the value
of its total assets in equity securities consisting of common stocks and debt
securities and preferred stocks which are convertible into common stocks. The
fund also may enter into options and futures transactions. The remainder of the
fund's assets will be held in cash equivalents
The One Group(R) Growth Opportunities Fund
The One Group(R) Growth Opportunities Fund seeks growth of capital and,
secondarily, current income by investing primarily in equity securities. The
fund will invest in issues which are identified and selected based on the
potential to produce above-average earnings growth per share over a
one-to-three year period. It is expected that issuers will generally include
established companies

with a history of above-average growth or companies that are expected to enter
periods of above-average growth, and smaller companies which are positioned in
emerging growth industries. The fund may invest in securities listed on a stock
exchange as well as those traded over-the-counter. At least 80% of the value of
the fund's total assets will, under normal conditions, be invested in equity
securities consisting of common stocks and debt securities and preferred stocks
that are convertible into common stocks. The fund also may enter into options
and futures transactions. The remainder of the fund's assets will be held in
cash equivalents.
The One Group(R) Value Growth Fund
The One Group(R) Value Growth Fund seeks long-term capital growth and growth of
income while, as a secondary objective providing a moderate level of current
income. The fund pursues its objectives by investing primarily in a portfolio
of common stocks, debt securities, preferred stocks, convertible securities,
warrants, and other equity securities of companies that show the potential for
growth of earnings over time. Stock selection is guided by current valuation
relative to a stock's historical valuation and relative to the Adviser's
estimates of future growth of earnings and dividends. Accordingly, the Fund may
emphasize securities of companies that the Adviser believes are overlooked or
undervalued by investors, which fact should contribute to an increase in the
market value of the security over time.
The fund will ordinarily invest at least 65% of the value of its total assets
in securities with the characteristics described above. Although the fund
intends to invest all of its assets in such securities, up to 35% of its total
assets may be held in cash or invested in U.S. Government Securities, other
investment grade fixed-income securities and cash equivalents.
The One Group(R) Gulf South Growth Fund
The One Group(R) Gulf South Growth Fund seeks long-term capital growth by
investing in a portfolio of equity securities of small-capitalization ,
emerging growth and medium capitalization companies, which are either
headquartered in or whose primary market is in the southeastern region of the
United States. The fund invests primarily in a portfolio of common stocks, debt
securities, preferred stocks, convertible securities, warrants and other equity
securities of such companies. The Adviser anticipates that the fund's portfolio
will normally consist of securities of approximately twenty-five to sixty
emerging growth companies from Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina,
Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana,
Kentucky and Texas. It is expected that companies selected would generally have
market capitalizations ranging from $50,000,000 to $2,000,000,000, although the
fund may occasionally hold securities of companies whose market capitalizations
are considerably larger if doing so contributes to the fund's investment
objective.
The fund will normally invest at least 65% of the value of its total assets in
securities with the characteristics described above. Although the fund intends
to invest all of its assets in such securities, up to 35% of its total assets
may be held in cash or invested in U.S. Government Securities, other investment
grade fixed-income securities and cash equivalents, when the Adviser's
assessment of the attractiveness of the entire stock market and individual
market sectors changes.
Because the fund is non-diversified, its share price may be subject to greater
fluctuations as a result of changes in an issuer's financial condition or the
market's assessment of an individual issuer. In addition, smaller, less
seasoned companies may be subject to greater business risk than larger,
established companies.
The One Group(R) Income Equity Fund
The One Group(R) Income Equity Fund seeks current income through regular
payment of dividends with the secondary goal of achieving capital appreciation
by investing primarily in equity securities. The fund will make investments in
an attempt to keep its yield above the S&P 500 Index. Achieving such a yield
will be the primary consideration in selecting securities. Investments will be
made in common stocks of corporations which regularly pay dividends, although
continued payment of dividends cannot be assured. The fund will invest
primarily in stocks with favorable, long-term fundamental characteristics, but
stocks of companies that are out of favor in the financial community may also
be purchased.
The fund will under normal conditions invest at least 80% of the value of its
total assets in equity securities consisting of common stocks, and debt
securities and preferred stocks which are convertible into common stocks. The
fund also may enter into options and futures transactions. The balance of the
fund's assets will be held in cash equivalents.
8
<PAGE> 221
The One Group(R) Equity Index Fund
The One Group(R) Equity Index Fund seeks investment results that correspond to
the aggregate price and dividend performance of the securities on the S&P 500
Index. The fund will, in attempting to duplicate the capital performance and
dividend income of the S&P 500 Index, normally invest in many of the stocks
which comprise the S&P 500 Index and secondarily in stock index futures. Cash
reserves will not normally exceed 10% of the fund's net assets.
The Adviser generally selects stocks for the fund in the order of their
weightings in the S&P 500 Index beginning with the heaviest weighted stocks.
The percentage of the fund's assets to be invested in each stock is
approximately the same as the percentage it represents in the S&P 500 Index.
From time to time, administrative adjustments may be made in the fund because
of changes in the composition of the S&P 500 Index, but such changes should be
infrequent. The fund will attempt to achieve a correlation between the
performance of its portfolio and that of the S&P 500 Index of at least 0.95,
without taking into account expenses. A correlation of 1.00 would indicate
perfect correlation, which would be achieved when the fund's net asset value,
including the value of its dividend and capital gains distributions, increases
or decreases in exact proportion to changes in the S&P 500 Index.
The One Group(R) Prime Money Market Fund
The One Group(R) Prime Money Market Fund seeks current income with liquidity
and stability of principal. The fund intends to comply with the regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to money market funds using
the amortized cost method for calculating net asset value. These regulations
impose certain quality, maturity and diversification restraints on investments
by the fund. Under these regulations, the fund will invest only in U.S.
dollar-denominated securities, will maintain an average maturity on a
dollar-weighted basis of 90 days or less, and will acquire only "eligible
securities" that present minimal credit risks and have a maturity of 397 days
or less.
The One Group(R) Disciplined Value Fund
The One Group(R) Disciplined Value Fund seeks capital appreciation with the
secondary goal of achieving current income by investing primarily in equity
securities. The fund will invest in equity securities with below-market average
price-to-earnings and price-to-book value ratios. The issuer's soundness and
earnings prospects will also be considered. Although capital appreciation is
the primary purpose for investing in the security, all common stocks must be
paying a current dividend to shareholders to be eligible for purchase. While
the Adviser may sell fund securities in its discretion at any time, it is
unlikely to move toward elimination of the fund's holdings of a stock when the
Adviser determines that there is a fundamental change that impairs a company's
ability to pay dividends, or if the company's 12-month earnings per share
comparison is declining.
The fund will, under normal conditions, invest at least 80% of the value of its
total assets in equity securities consisting of common stocks and debt
securities and preferred stocks that are convertible into common stocks. The
fund also may enter into options and futures transactions. The balance of the
fund's assets will be held in cash equivalents.
The One Group(R) Limited Volatility Bond Fund
The One Group(R) Limited Volatility Bond Fund seeks current income consistent
with preservation of capital through investment in high and medium-grade
fixed-income securities. The fund will normally invest at least 80% of total
assets in debt securities of all types with short to intermediate maturities.
Under normal market conditions, it is anticipated that the fund's average
weighted maturity will range between one and five years. At least 65% of the
fund's total assets will consist of bonds rated in one of the three highest
rating categories by at least one nationally recognized statistical rating
organization ("NRSRO") at the time of investment, or, if unrated, determined by
the Adviser to be of comparable quality. In addition , at least 65% of total
assets will consist of obligations issued by the U.S. government or its
agencies and instrumentalities, some of which may be subject to repurchase
agreements. The fund may also purchase taxable or tax-exempt municipal
securities. Up to 20% of the fund's total assets may be invested in preferred
stocks.
The One Group(R) Intermediate Bond Fund
The One Group(R) Intermediate Bond Fund seeks current income consistent with the
preservation of capital through investments in high and medium-grade
fixed-income securities with intermediate maturities. The fund will normally
invest at least 80% of total assets in debt securities of all types. Under
normal market conditions, it is anticipated that the fund's average weighted
maturity will range between three and ten years. At least 65% of the fund's
total assets will consist of bonds rated in one of the three highest rating
categories by at least one NRSRO at the time of investment, or, if unrated,
determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. However, the Adviser
reserves the right to invest in more speculative debt securities if they present
attractive opportunities and are rated in the fourth highest rating category by
at least one NRSRO at the time of investment or, if unrated, determined by the
Adviser to be of comparable
9
<PAGE> 222
quality. In addition, at least 50% of total assets will consist of obligations
issued by the U.S. government or its agencies and instrumentalities, some of
which may be subject to repurchase agreements. The fund may also purchase
taxable or tax-exempt municipal securities. Up to 20% of the fund's total
assets may be invested in preferred stocks.
The One Group(R) Income Bond Fund
The One Group(R) Income Bond Fund seeks current income by investing in a
portfolio of high and medium-grade fixed-income securities. The fund will
normally invest at least 80% of total assets in debt securities of all types.
Under normal market conditions, it is anticipated that the fund's average
weighted maturity will range between five and fifteen years. At least 65% of
the fund's total assets will consist of bonds rated in one of the three highest
rating categories by at least one NRSRO, or, if unrated, determined by the
Adviser to be of comparable quality. However, the Adviser reserves the right to
invest in more speculative debt securities if they present attractive
opportunities and are rated in the fourth highest rating category by at least
one NRSRO at the time of investment or, if unrated, determined by the Adviser
to be of comparable quality. The fund may also purchase taxable or tax-exempt
municipal securities. Up to 20% of the fund's total assets may be invested in
preferred stocks.
The One Group(R) Government Bond Fund
The One Group(R) Government Bond Fund seeks a high level of current income with
liquidity and safety of principal. The fund seeks to achieve its objective
principally through investment in securities issued by the U.S. government and
its agencies and instrumentalities. At least 65% of the total assets of the fund
will be invested in obligations guaranteed as to principal and interest by the
U.S. Government or its agencies and instrumentalities, some of which may be
subject to repurchase agreements, and other securities representing an interest
in or collateralized by mortgages that are issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
government, its agencies or instrumentalities. The balance of the fund's assets
may be invested in debt securities and taxable or tax-empt municipal
securities. The average weighted remaining maturity of the Fund is expected to
be between three and fifteen years.
The One Group(R) Ultra Short-Term Income Fund
The One Group(R) Ultra-Short Term Fund seeks a high level of current income
consistent with low volatility of principal by investing in a diversified
portfolio of short-term investment grade securities. The fund will normally
invest at least 80% of its total assets in debt securities of all types,
including money market instruments. In addition, up to 20% of the fund's total
assets may be invested in other securities, including preferred stock. The fund
will invest in adjustable rate mortgage pass-through securities and other
securities representing an interest in or collateralized by mortgages with
periodic interest rate resets, some of which may be subject to repurchase
agreements. These securities often are issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
government, its agencies or instrumentalities. However, the fund also may
purchase mortgage-backed securities that are issued by non-governmental
entities. Such securities may or may not have private insurer guarantees as to
timely payments. The fund also may purchase mortgage and interest rate swaps
and interest rate floors and caps. The fund also may employ other investment
techniques to enhance returns, such as loans of fund securities, mortgage
dollar rolls, repurchase agreements, options contracts and reverse repurchase
agreements.
The Fund will maintain a maximum duration approximately two years. Under normal
interest rate conditions, the Fund's actual duration is expected to be in a
range approximately six months to one year.
RISK FACTORS
The investments of the Fund are concentrated in the Underlying Funds, so the
Fund's investment performance is directly related to the performance of the
Underlying Funds. In addition, as a matter of fundamental policy, the Fund must
allocate its investments among the Underlying Funds within certain ranges. As a
result, the Fund does not have the same flexibility to invest as a mutual fund
without such constraints.
The Fund may invest in Underlying Funds which invest in medium or lower grade
bonds. If these bonds are downgraded, the Adviser will consider whether to
increase or decrease the Fund's investment in the affected Underlying Fund.
Further, the Fund may invest in Underlying Funds which concentrate their assets
in certain industries. Under certain circumstances, this could result in the
Fund being concentrated in those industries. If this were to occur, the Adviser
would consider whether to maintain or change the Fund's investments in such
Underlying Funds.
Special Risks of Investing in Equity Funds
Changes in the value of an equity fund's portfolio securities will not affect
cash income, if any, derived from these securities but will affect the fund's
net asset value. Because equity funds invest primarily in equity securities,
which fluctuate in value, the funds' shares will fluctuate in value. In
addition, certain investment management techniques that the funds may use, such
as the purchase and sale
10
<PAGE> 223
of futures, options and forward commitments, could expose the funds to
potentially greater risk of loss than more traditional equity investments.
Special Risks of Investing in Fixed-Income Funds
The market value of a fund's fixed-income investments will change in response
to interest rate changes and other factors. During periods of falling interest
rates, the values of outstanding fixed-income securities generally rise.
Conversely, during periods of rising interest rates, the values of such
securities generally decline. Moreover, while securities with longer maturities
tend to produce higher yields, the prices of longer maturity securities are
also subject to greater market fluctuations as a result of changes in interest
rates. Changes by recognized agencies in the rating of any fixed-income
security and in the ability of an issuer to make payments of interest and
principal also affect the value of these investments. Except under condition of
default, changes in the value of fixed-income securities will not affect cash
income derived from these securities but will affect the funds' net asset
value.
Special Risks of Investing in Index Funds
Because of the funds' investment objectives, securities may be purchased,
retained and sold by the funds when such transactions would not be consistent
with traditional investment criteria. Accordingly, an investor is exposed to a
greater risk of loss (and a correspondingly greater prospect of gain) from
fluctuations in the value of such securities than would be the case if the
funds were not fully invested in such securities. In addition, the Adviser may
eliminate one or more securities or elect not to increase the funds' position
in such securities notwithstanding the continued listing of such securities on
the relevant index in the following circumstances: (i) the stock is no longer
publicly traded; or (ii) an unexpected adverse development occurs with respect
to the company such as bankruptcy or insolvency. As a result of these risk
factors, the share price of an index fund is expected to be volatile, and
investors should be able to sustain sudden, sometimes substantial, fluctuations
in the value of their investment.
Special Risks of Foreign Securities
Investments in securities of foreign issuers involve risks that are different
from investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These risks may include future
unfavorable political and economic developments, possible withholding taxes,
seizure of foreign deposits, currency controls, higher transaction costs, and
delayed settlements of transactions. Securities of some foreign companies are
less liquid, and their prices more volatile, than securities of comparable U.S.
companies. Additionally, there may be less public information available about
foreign issuers. Finally, since the funds may invest in securities denominated
in foreign currencies, changes in exchange rates may affect the value of
investments in the funds.
Special Risks of Small Capitalization Companies
Smaller, less seasoned companies may be subject to greater business risk than
larger, established companies. They may be more vulnerable to changes in
economic conditions, specific industry conditions, market fluctuations and
other factors affecting the profitability of companies. Therefore, the stock
price of smaller capitalization companies may be subject to greater price
fluctuations than that of larger, established companies. Due to these and other
risk factors, the price movement of the securities held by the funds may be
volatile and the net asset value of shares of the funds may fluctuate.
Special Risks of Mortgage Related Securities
Some of the funds invest in mortgage-related securities, such as
mortgage-backed securities, adjustable rate mortgage loans ("ARMs"), fixed rate
mortgage loans, and mortgage dollar rolls. The investment characteristics of
mortgage-related securities differ from traditional debt securities. These
differences can result in significantly greater price and yield volatility than
is the case with traditional fixed-income securities. The major differences
typically include more frequent interest and principal payments, usually
monthly, the adjustability of interest rates, and the possibility that
prepayments of principal may be made at any time. Prepayment rates are
influenced by changes in current interest rates and a variety of economic,
geographic, social, and other factors. During periods of declining interest
rates, prepayment rates can be expected to accelerate. Under certain interest
rate and prepayment rate scenarios, a fund may fail to recoup fully its
investment in mortgage-related securities notwithstanding a direct or indirect
governmental or agency guarantee. The funds intend to use hedging techniques to
control this risk. In general, changes in the rate of prepayments on a
mortgage-related security will change that security's market value and its
yield to maturity. When interest rates fall, high prepayments could force a
fund to reinvest principal at a time when investment opportunities are not
attractive. Thus, mortgage-related securities may not be an effective means for
a fund to lock in long-term interest rates. Conversely, during periods when
interest rates rise, slow prepayments could cause the average life of the
security to lengthen and the value to decline more than anticipated.

Shareholders may revoke their automatic eligibility to make purchases and/or
redemptions by telephone or by wire, by sending a letter so stating to the
Transfer Agent, State Street Bank and Trust Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA
02266-8500.
SYSTEMATIC INVESTMENT PLAN
Class A and Class B investors may make automatic monthly investments in the
Fund from their bank, savings and loan or other depository institution
accounts. The minimum initial and subsequent investments must be $25 under the
Systematic Investment Plan, which minimum may be waived at the discretion of
the Distributor. The Trust pays the costs associated with these transfers, but
reserves the right, upon thirty days' written notice, to impose reasonable
charges for this service. A depository institution may impose a charge for
debiting an investor's account which would reduce the investor's return from an
investment in the Fund.
FUND-DIRECT IRA
The Trust offers a tax-advantaged retirement plan for which the Fund may be an
appropriate investment. The Trust's retirement plan allows participants to
defer taxes while helping them build their retirement savings.

The One Group Fund-Direct IRA is a retirement plan with a wide choice of
investments offering people with earned income the opportunity to compound
earnings on a tax-deferred basis. An IRA Adoption Agreement may be obtained by
calling the Distributor at 1-800-480-4111.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING PURCHASES
A purchase order will be effective as of the day received by the Distributor if
the Distributor receives the order before 4:00 p.m., eastern time. However, an
order may be cancelled if the Transfer Agent does not receive Federal funds
before close of business on the next Business Day for Fiduciary Class shares,
and before the close of business on the third Business Day for Class A and
Class B shares, and the investor could be liable for any fees or expenses
incurred by the Trust. Federal funds are monies credited to a bank's account
with a Federal Reserve Bank. The purchase price of shares of the Fund is the
net asset value next determined after a purchase order is effected plus any
applicable sales charge (the "offering price"). The net asset value per share
of the Fund is determined by dividing the total market value of the Fund's
investments and other assets allocable to a class, less any liabilities
allocable to that class, by the total number of outstanding shares of such
class. Net asset value per share is determined daily as of 4:00 p.m., eastern
time, on each Business Day. For a further discussion of the calculation of net
asset value, see the Statement of Additional Information. Shares may also be
issued in transactions involving the acquisition by the Fund of securities held
by collective investment funds sponsored and administered by affiliates of the
Adviser. Purchases will be made in full and fractional shares of the Fund
calculated to three decimal places. Although the methodology and procedures are
identical, the net asset value per share of classes within the Fund may differ
because the distribution expenses charged to Class A shares and Class B shares
are not charged to Fiduciary Class shares.
The Trust reserves the right to reject a purchase order when the Distributor
determines that it is not in the best interest of the Trust and/or its
Shareholders to accept such order. Except as provided below, neither the
Trust's Transfer Agent nor the Trust will be responsible for any loss,
liability, cost or expense for acting upon telephone or wire instructions, and
the investor will bear all risk of loss. The Trust will employ reasonable
procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine,
including requiring a form of personal identification prior to acting upon
instructions received by telephone and recording telephone instructions. If
such procedures are not employed, the Trust may be liable for any losses due to
unauthorized or fraudulent instructions.
Fiduciary Class shares offered to institutional investors and to investors in
certain retirement plans, Class A shares offered to IRA account participants
and Class B shares that are offered to investors in certain retirement plans
such as 401(k) and similar plans, other than Individual Retirement Accounts,
will normally be held in the name of the Shareholder Servicing Agent effecting
the purchase on the Shareholder's behalf, and it is the Shareholder Servicing
Agent's responsibility to transmit purchase orders to the Distributor. A
Shareholder Servicing Agent may impose an earlier cut-off time for receipt of
purchase orders directed through it to allow for processing and transmittal of
these orders to the Distributor for effectiveness the same day. The Shareholder
should contact his or her Shareholder Servicing Agent for information as to the
Shareholder Servicing Agent's procedures for transmitting purchase, exchange or
redemption orders to the Trust. A Shareholder who desires to transfer the
registration of shares beneficially owned by him or her, but held of record by
a Shareholder Servicing Agent, should contact the Shareholder Servicing Agent
to accomplish such change. Other Shareholders who desire to transfer the
registration of their shares should contact the Transfer Agent.
No certificates representing shares of the Fund will be issued. In
communications to Shareholders, the Fund will not duplicate mailings of Fund
material to Shareholders who reside at the same address.
SALES CHARGE
The following table shows the initial sales charge on Class A shares to a
"single purchaser" (defined below) together with the sales charge reallowed to
financial institutions and intermediaries (the "commission"):

<PAGE> 226
The commissions shown in the table apply to sales through financial
institutions and intermediaries. Under certain circumstances, the Distributor
will use its own funds to compensate financial institutions and intermediaries
in amounts that are additional to the commissions shown above. The maximum cash
compensation payable by the Distributor as a sales charge is 3.00% of the
offering price (including the commission shown above and additional cash
compensation described below). In addition, the Distributor will, from time to
time and at its own expense, provide promotional incentives to financial
institutions and intermediaries, whose registered representatives have sold or
are expected to sell significant amounts of the shares of the Fund in the form
of payment for travel expenses, including lodging, incurred in connection with
trips taken by qualifying registered representatives to places within or
outside the United States, and additional compensation in an amount up to 1.00%
of the offering price of Class A shares of the Fund for sales of $1 million to
$5 million, and 0.50% for sales over $5 million. A Shareholder who purchases $1
million or more of Class A shares and is not assessed a sales charge at the
time of purchase, will be assessed a sales charge equivalent to 1% of the
purchase price if such Shareholder redeems any or all of the Class A shares
prior to the first anniversary of purchase. Under certain circumstances,
commissions up to the amount of the entire sales charge will be reallowed to
financial institutions and intermediaries, which might then be deemed to be
"underwriters" under the Securities Act of 1933.
RIGHT OF ACCUMULATION
In calculating the sales charge rates applicable to current purchases of Class
A shares, a "single purchaser" is entitled to cumulate current purchases with
the current value at the offering price of previously purchased Class A and
Class B shares of the Fund and other eligible funds of the Trust, other than
the Trust's money market funds, that are sold subject to a comparable sales
charge.
The term "single purchaser" refers to (i) an individual, (ii) an individual and
spouse purchasing shares of the Fund for their own account or for trust or
custodial accounts for their minor children, or (iii) a fiduciary purchasing
for any one trust, estate or fiduciary account, including employee benefit
plans created under Sections 401 or 457 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code"), and including related plans of the same employer. To
be entitled to a reduced sales charge based upon shares already owned, the
investor must ask the Distributor for such reduction at the time of purchase
and provide the account number(s) of the investor, the investor and spouse, and
their minor children, and give the age of such children. The Fund may amend or
terminate this right of accumulation at any time as to subsequent purchases.
LETTER OF INTENT
By initially investing at least $2,000 in Class A shares of one or more funds
that impose a comparable sales charge over the next 13 months, the sales charge
may be reduced by completing the Letter of Intent section of the Account
Application Form. The Letter of Intent includes a provision for a sales charge
adjustment depending on the amount actually purchased within the 13-month
period. In addition, pursuant to a Letter of Intent, the Custodian will hold in
escrow the difference between the sales charge applicable to the amount
initially purchased and the sales charge paid at the time of investment, which
is based on the amount covered by the Letter of Intent.
For example, assume an investor signs a Letter of Intent to purchase $250,000
in Class A shares of one (or more) of the funds of the Trust that imposes a
comparable sales charge and, at the time of signing the Letter of Intent,
purchases $100,000 of Class A shares of one of these funds. The investor would
pay an initial sales charge of 2.00% (the sales charge applicable to purchases
of $250,000) and .50% of the investment (representing the difference between
the 2.50% sales charge applicable to purchases of $100,000 and the 2.00% sales
charge already paid) would be held in escrow until the investor has purchased
the remaining $150,000 or more in Class A shares under the investor's Letter of
Intent.
The amount held in escrow will be applied to the investor's account at the end
of the 13-month period unless the amount specified in the Letter of Intent is
not purchased. In order to qualify for a Letter of Intent, the investor will be
required to make a minimum purchase of at least $2,000.
The Letter of Intent will not obligate the investor to purchase Class A shares,
but if he or she does, each purchase during the period will be at the sales
charge applicable to the total amount intended to be purchased. The Letter of
Intent may be dated as of a prior date to include any purchases made within the
past 90 days.
OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES
No sales charge is imposed on Class A shares of the Fund: (i) issued through
reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions; (ii) acquired
through the exercise of exchange privileges where a comparable sales charge has
been paid for exchanged shares; (iii) purchased by officers, directors or
trustees, retirees and employees (and their spouses and immediate family
members) of the Trust, of BANC ONE CORPORATION and its subsidiaries and
affiliates, of the Distributor and its subsidiaries and affiliates, or of an
investment sub-adviser of a fund of the Trust and such sub-adviser's
subsidiaries and affiliates; (iv) sold to affiliates of BANC ONE
14
<PAGE> 227
CORPORATION and certain accounts (other than Individual Retirement Accounts)
for which Authorized Financial Organizations act in fiduciary, advisory,
agency, custodial or similar capacities, or purchased by investment advisers,
financial planners or other intermediaries who have a dealer arrangement with
the Distributor, who place trades for their own accounts or for the accounts of
their clients and who charge a management, consulting or other fee for their
services, as well as clients of such investment advisers, financial planners or
other intermediaries who place trades for their own accounts if the accounts
are linked to the master account of such investment adviser, financial planner
or other intermediary; (v) purchased with proceeds from the recent redemption
of Fiduciary Class shares of a fund of the Trust or acquired in an exchange of
Fiduciary Class shares of a fund for Class A shares of the same fund; (vi)
purchased with proceeds from the recent redemption of shares of a mutual fund
(other than a fund of the Trust) for which a sales charge was paid; (vii)
purchased in an Individual Retirement Account with the proceeds of a
distribution from an employee benefit plan, provided that, at the time of
distribution, the employee benefit plan had plan assets invested in a fund of
the Trust; (viii) purchased with Trust assets; (ix) purchased in accounts as to
which a bank or broker-dealer charges an asset allocation fee, provided the
bank or broker-dealer has an agreement with the Distributor; (x) directly
purchased with the proceeds of a distribution on a bond for which a BANC ONE
CORPORATION affiliate bank or trust company is the Trustee or Paying Agent; or
(xi) purchased in connection with plans of reorganization of the Fund, such as
mergers, asset acquisitions and exchange offers to which the Fund is a party.
An investor relying upon any of the categories of waivers of the sales charge
must qualify for such waiver in advance of the purchase with the Distributor or
the financial institution or intermediary through which shares are purchased by
the investor.
The waiver of the sales charge under circumstances (v), (vi), and (vii) above
applies only if the purchase is made within 60 days of the redemption or
distribution and if conditions imposed by the Distributor are met. The waiver
policy with respect to the purchase of shares through the use of proceeds from
a recent redemption or distribution as described in clauses (v), (vi), and
(vii) above will not be continued indefinitely and may be discontinued at any
time without notice. Investors should call the Distributor at 1-800-480-4111 to
determine whether they are eligible to purchase shares without paying a sales
charge through the use of proceeds from a recent redemption or distribution as
described above, and to confirm continued availability of these waiver policies
prior to initiating the procedures described in clauses (v), (vi), and (vii).
ALTERNATIVE SALES ARRANGEMENTS
CLASS B SHARES
Class B shares are not subject to a sales charge when they are purchased, but
are subject to a sales charge (the "Contingent Deferred Sales Charge") if a
Shareholder redeems them prior to the sixth anniversary of purchase. When a
Shareholder purchases Class B shares, the full purchase amount is invested
directly in the Fund. Class B shares of the Fund are subject to an ongoing
distribution and Shareholder service fee at an annual rate of 1.00% of the
Fund's average daily net assets as provided in the Class B Plan (described
below under "The Distributor"). This ongoing fee will cause Class B shares to
have a higher expense ratio and to pay lower dividends than Class A shares.
Class B shares convert automatically to Class A shares after eight years,
commencing from the end of the calendar month in which the purchase order was
accepted under the circumstances and subject to the qualifications described in
this Prospectus.
Proceeds from the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the distribution and
Shareholder service fees under the Class B Plan are payable to the Distributor
and financial intermediaries to defray the expenses of advance brokerage
commissions and expenses related to providing distribution-related and
Shareholder services to the Fund in connection with the sale of the Class B
shares, such as the payment of compensation to dealers and agents for selling
Class B shares. A dealer reallowance of 4.00% of the original purchase price of
the Class B shares will be paid to financial institutions and intermediaries.
CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE
If the Shareholder redeems Class B shares prior to the sixth anniversary of
purchase, the Shareholder will pay a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge at the
rates set forth below. The Contingent Deferred Sales Charge is assessed on an
amount equal to the lesser of the then-current market value or the cost of the
shares being redeemed. Accordingly, no sales charge is imposed on increases in
net asset value above the initial purchase price. In addition, no charge is
assessed on shares derived from reinvestment of dividends or capital gain
distributions.
The amount of the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge, if any, varies depending on
the number of years from the time of payment for the purchase of Class B shares
until the time of redemption of such shares. Solely for purposes of determining
the number of years from the time of any payment for the purchase of shares,
all payments during a month are aggregated and deemed to have been made on the
first day of the month.

</TABLE>
In determining whether a particular redemption is subject to a Contingent
Deferred Sales Charge, it is assumed that the redemption is first of any Class
A shares in the Shareholder's Fund account (unless the Shareholder elects to
have Class B shares redeemed first) or shares representing capital
appreciation, next of shares acquired pursuant to reinvestment of dividends and
capital gain distributions, and finally of other shares held by the Shareholder
for the longest period of time. This method should result in the lowest
possible sales charge.
To provide an example, assume you purchased 100 shares at $10 per share (a
total cost of $1,000) and prior to the second anniversary after purchase, the
net asset value per share is $12 and during such time you have acquired 10
additional shares through dividends paid in shares. If you then make your first
redemption of 50 shares (proceeds of $600), 10 shares will not be subject to
charge because you received them as dividends. With respect to the remaining 40
shares, the charge is applied only to the original cost of $10 per share and
not to the increase in net asset value of $2 per share. Therefore, $400 of the
$600 redemption proceeds is subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge at a
rate of 4.00% (the applicable rate prior to the second anniversary after
purchase).
The Contingent Deferred Sales Charge is waived on redemption of shares: (i) for
distributions that are made under a Systematic Withdrawal Plan of the Trust and
that are limited to no more than 10% of the account value annually, determined
in the first year as of the date the redemption request is received by the
Transfer Agent, and in subsequent years, as of the most recent anniversary of
that date; (ii) following the death or disability (as defined in the Code) of a
Shareholder or a participant or beneficiary of a qualifying retirement plan if
redemption is made within one year of such death or disability; or (iii) to the
extent that the redemption represents a minimum required distribution from an
Individual Retirement Account or other qualifying retirement plan to a
Shareholder who has attained the age of 70 1/2. A Shareholder or his or her
representative should contact the Transfer Agent to determine whether a
retirement plan qualifies for a waiver and must notify the Transfer Agent prior
to the time of redemption if such circumstances exist and the Shareholder is
eligible for this waiver. In addition, the following circumstances are not
deemed to result in a "redemption" of Class B shares for purposes of the
assessment of a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge, which is therefore waived:
(i) plans of reorganization of the Fund, such as mergers, asset acquisitions
and exchange offers to which the Fund is a party; or (ii) exchanges for Class B
shares of other funds of the Trust as described under "Exchanges."
CONVERSION FEATURE
Class B shares include all shares purchased pursuant to the Contingent Deferred
Sales Charge which have been outstanding for less than the period ending eight
years after the end of the month in which the shares were purchased. At the end
of this period, Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares and
will be subject to the lower distribution and Shareholder service fees charged
to Class A shares. Such conversion will be on the basis of the relative net
asset values of the two classes, without the imposition of any sales charge,
fee or other charge. The conversion is not a taxable event to a Shareholder.
For purposes of conversion to Class A shares, shares received as dividends and
other distributions paid on Class B shares in a Shareholder's Fund account will
be considered to be held in a separate sub-account. Each time any Class B
shares in a Shareholder's Fund account (other than those in the sub-account)
convert to Class A shares, a pro-rata portion of the Class B shares in the
sub-account will also convert to Class A shares.
If a Shareholder effects one or more exchanges among Class B shares of the
funds of the Trust during the eight-year period, the Trust will aggregate the
holding periods for the shares of each fund of the Trust for purposes of
calculating that eight-year period. Because the per share net asset value of
the Class A shares may be higher than that of the Class B shares at the time of
conversion, a Shareholder may receive fewer Class A shares than the number of
Class B shares converted, although the dollar value will be the same.

EXCHANGES
CLASS A AND FIDUCIARY CLASS
Fiduciary Class Shareholders of the Fund may exchange their shares for Class A
shares of the Fund or for Class A shares or Fiduciary Class shares of another
fund of the Trust.
Class A Shareholders may exchange their shares for Fiduciary Class shares of
the Fund or for Fiduciary Class shares or Class A shares of another fund of the
Trust, if the Shareholder is eligible to purchase such shares.
The exchange privilege may be exercised only in those states where the shares
of the Fund or such other fund of the Trust may be legally sold. All exchanges
discussed herein are made at the net asset value of the exchanged shares,
except as provided below. The Trust does not impose a charge for processing
exchanges of shares. If a Shareholder seeks to exchange Class A shares of a
fund that does not impose a sales charge for Class A shares of a fund that does
or the fund being exchanged into has a higher sales charge, the Shareholder
will be required to pay a sales charge in the amount equal to the difference
between the sales charge applicable to the fund into which the shares are being
exchanged and any sales charges previously paid for the exchanged shares,
including any sales charges incurred on any earlier exchanges of the shares
(unless such sales charge is otherwise waived, as provided in "Other
Circumstances"). The exchange of Fiduciary Class shares for Class A shares also
will require payment of the sales charge unless the sales charge is waived, as
provided in "Other Circumstances."
CLASS B
Class B Shareholders of the Fund may exchange their shares for Class B shares
of any other fund of the Trust on the basis of the net asset value of the
exchanged Class B shares, without the payment of any Contingent Deferred Sales
Charge that might otherwise be due upon redemption of the outstanding Class B
shares. The newly acquired Class B shares will be subject to the higher
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge of either the fund from which the shares were
exchanged or the fund into which the shares were exchanged. With respect to
outstanding Class B shares as to which previous exchanges have taken place,
"higher Contingent Deferred Sales Charge" shall mean the higher of the
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge applicable to either the fund the shares are
exchanging into or any other fund from which the shares previously have been
exchanged. For purposes of computing the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge that
may be payable upon a disposition of the newly acquired Class B shares, the
holding period for outstanding Class B shares of the fund from which the
exchange was made is "tacked" to the holding period of the newly acquired Class
B shares. For purposes of calculating the holding period applicable to the
newly acquired Class B shares, the newly acquired Class B shares shall be
deemed to have been issued on the date of receipt of the Shareholder's order to
purchase the outstanding Class B shares of the fund from which the initial
exchange was made.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING EXCHANGES
In the case of shares held of record by a Shareholder Servicing Agent but
beneficially owned by a Shareholder, to exchange such shares the Shareholder
should contact the Shareholder Servicing Agent, who will contact the Transfer
Agent and effect the exchange on behalf of the Shareholder. If an exchange
request in good order is received by the Transfer Agent by 4:00 p.m., eastern
time, on any Business Day, the exchange usually will occur on that day. Any
Shareholder who wishes to make an exchange must receive a current prospectus of
the fund of the Trust in which he or she wishes to invest before the exchange
will be effected.
The Trust reserves the right to change the terms or conditions of the exchange
privilege discussed herein upon sixty days' written notice. An exchange between
classes of shares of the same fund is not considered a taxable event; however,
an exchange between funds of the Trust is considered a sale of shares and
usually results in a capital gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes.
Shareholders should consult their tax advisers for a more complete explanation
of the Federal income tax consequences of an exchange of shares of the Fund.
A more detailed description of the above is set forth in the Statement of
Additional Information.
REDEMPTIONS
Shareholders may redeem their shares without charge (except Class B shares, as
provided above) on any Business Day; shares may ordinarily be redeemed by mail,
by telephone or by wire. All redemption orders are effected at the net asset
value per share next determined for Class A and Fiduciary Class shares, and at
net asset value per share next determined reduced by any applicable Contingent
Deferred Sales Charge for Class B shares, after receipt of a valid request for
redemption. Payment to Shareholders for shares redeemed will be made within
seven days after receipt by the Transfer Agent of the request for redemption.
17
<PAGE> 230
BY MAIL
A written request for redemption must be received by the Transfer Agent in
order to constitute a valid request for redemption. All written redemption
requests should be sent to The One Group(R), c/o State Street Bank and Trust
Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500, or the Shareholder Servicing
Agent, if applicable. The Transfer Agent may require that the signature on the
written request be guaranteed by a commercial bank, a member firm of a domestic
stock exchange, or by a member of the Securities Transfer Association Medallion
Program or the Stock Exchange Medallion Program.
The signature guarantee requirement will be waived if all of the following
conditions apply: (i) the redemption is for $5,000 worth of shares or less;
(ii) the redemption check is payable to the Shareholder(s) of record; and (iii)
the redemption check is mailed to the Shareholder(s) at the address of record.
The Shareholder may also have the proceeds mailed to a commercial bank account
previously designated on the Account Application Form or by written instruction
to the Transfer Agent or the Shareholder Servicing Agent, if applicable. There
is no charge for having redemption requests mailed to a designated bank
account.
BY TELEPHONE OR BY WIRE
Shareholders may have the payment of redemption requests wired or mailed to a
domestic commercial bank account previously designated on the Account
Application Form. Wire redemption requests may be made by the Shareholder by
telephone to the Transfer Agent at 1-800-480-4111, provided that the
Shareholder has elected the telephone redemption privilege in writing to the
Distributor, or to the Shareholder Servicing Agent, if applicable. The Transfer
Agent may reduce the amount of a wire redemption payment by its then-current
wire redemption charge, which, as of the date of this Prospectus, is $7.00.
Neither the Trust nor the Transfer Agent will be responsible for the
authenticity of the redemption instructions received by telephone if it
reasonably believes those instructions to be genuine. The Trust and the
Transfer Agent will each employ reasonable procedures to confirm that telephone
instructions are genuine, and may be liable for losses resulting from
unauthorized or fraudulent telephone transactions if it does not employ those
procedures. Such procedures may include requesting personal identification
information or recording telephone conversations.
SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PLAN
Shareholders whose accounts have a value of at least $10,000 may elect to
receive, or may designate another person to receive, monthly, quarterly or
annual payments in a specified amount of not less than $100 each. There is no
charge for this service. Under the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, all dividends
and distributions must be reinvested in shares of the Fund. Purchases of
additional Class A or Class B shares while the Systematic Withdrawal Plan is in
effect are generally undesirable because a sales charge is incurred whenever
purchases are made.
Pursuant to the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, Class B Shareholders may elect to
receive, or may designate another person to receive, distributions provided the
distributions are limited to no more than 10% of their account value annually,
determined in the first year as of the date the redemption request is received
by the Transfer Agent, and in subsequent years, as of the most recent
anniversary of that date.
In addition, Shareholders who have attained the age of 70 1/2 may elect to
receive distributions, to the extent that the redemption represents a minimum
required distribution from an Individual Retirement Account or other qualifying
retirement plan.
If the amount of systematic withdrawal exceeds income accrued since the
previous withdrawal under the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, the principal balance
invested will be reduced and shares will be redeemed.
OTHER INFORMATION REGARDING REDEMPTIONS
At various times, the Fund may be requested to redeem shares for which it has
not yet received good payment. In such circumstances, the forwarding of
proceeds may be delayed for 15 or more days until payment has been collected
for the purchase of such shares. The Fund intends to pay cash for all shares
redeemed.
Due to the relatively high costs of handling small investments, the Fund
reserves the right to redeem, at net asset value, the shares of any Shareholder
if, because of redemptions of shares by or on behalf of the Shareholder, the
account of such Shareholder in the Fund has a value of less than $1,000, the
minimum initial purchase amount. Accordingly, an investor purchasing shares of
the Fund in only the minimum investment amount may be subject to such
involuntary redemption if he or she thereafter redeems any of these shares.
Before the Fund exercises its right to redeem such shares and to send the
proceeds to the Shareholder, the Shareholder will
18
<PAGE> 231
be given notice that the value of the shares in his or her account is less than
the minimum amount and will be allowed 60 days to make an additional investment
in the Fund in an amount which will increase the value of the account to at
least $1,000.
See the Statement of Additional Information for examples of when the Trust may
suspend the right of redemption or redeem shares involuntarily if it appears
appropriate to do so in light of the Trust's responsibilities under the
Investment Company Act of 1940.
FUND MANAGEMENT
THE ADVISER
The Trust and Banc One Investment Advisors Corporation (the "Adviser") have
entered into an investment advisory agreement (the "Advisory Agreement"). Under
the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser makes the investment decisions for the
assets of the Fund and continuously reviews, supervises and administers the
Fund's investment program. The Adviser discharges its responsibilities subject
to the supervision of, and policies established by, the Trustees of the Trust.
The Trust's shares are not deposits or obligations of, or endorsed or
guaranteed by BANC ONE CORPORATION or its bank or non-bank affiliates. The
Trust's shares are not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation ("FDIC") or by any other governmental agency or government
sponsored agency of the Federal government or any state.
The Adviser is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of BANC ONE CORPORATION, a
bank holding company incorporated in the state of Ohio. BANC ONE CORPORATION
currently has affiliate banking organizations in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois,
Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Ohio, Oklahoma, Texas, Utah, West Virginia and
Wisconsin. In addition, BANC ONE CORPORATION has several affiliates that engage
in data processing, venture capital, investment and merchant banking, and other
diversified services including trust management, investment management,
brokerage, equipment leasing, mortgage banking, consumer finance and insurance.
On a consolidated basis, BANC ONE CORPORATION had assets of over $90.5 billion
as of December 31, 1995.
The Adviser represents a consolidation of the investment advisory staffs of a
number of bank affiliates of BANC ONE CORPORATION, which have considerable
experience in the management of open-end management investment company
portfolios, including The One Group(R) since 1985 (then known as "The Helmsman
Fund").
No single person is responsible for managing the assets of the Fund. Rather,
investment decisions for the Fund are made by committee.
The Adviser is entitled to a fee which is calculated daily and paid monthly, at
an annual rate of .05% of the average daily net assets of the Fund.
The Adviser also serves as investment adviser to each of the Underlying Funds.
As a shareholder of each of the Underlying Funds, the Fund will indirectly bear
its proportionate share of investment advisory fees paid by those funds. The
Underlying Funds pay the Adviser an advisory fee at the following rates:

THE DISTRIBUTOR
The One Group(R) Services Company (the "Distributor"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the BISYS Group, Inc., and the Trust are parties to a
distribution agreement (the "Distribution Agreement") under which shares of the
Fund are sold on a continuous basis.
Class A shares are subject to a distribution and Shareholder services plan (the
"Plan"). As provided in the Plan, the Trust will pay the Distributor a fee of
.35% of the average daily net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. Currently,
the Distributor has voluntarily agreed to limit payments under the Plan to .25%
of the average daily net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. Up to .25% of
the fees payable under the Plan may be used as compensation for Shareholder
services by the Distributor and/or financial institutions and intermediaries.
All such fees that may be paid under the Plan will be paid pursuant to Rule
12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Distributor may apply these
fees toward: (i) compensation for its services in connection with distribution
assistance or provision of Shareholder services; or (ii) payments to financial
institutions and intermediaries such as banks (including affiliates of the
Adviser), savings and loan associations, insurance companies, investment
counselors, broker-dealers, and the Distributor's affiliates and subsidiaries,
as compensation for services or reimbursement of expenses incurred in
connection with distribution assistance or provision of Shareholder services.
Class B shares are subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge if such shares
are redeemed prior to the sixth anniversary of purchase. Class B shares of the
Fund are subject to an ongoing distribution and Shareholder service fee as
provided in the Class B distribution and Shareholder services plan (the "Class
B Plan") at an annual rate of 1.00% of the Fund's average daily net assets,
which includes Shareholder servicing fees of .25% of the Fund's average daily
net assets.
Proceeds from the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the distribution and
Shareholder service fees under the Class B Plan are payable to the Distributor
and financial intermediaries to defray the expenses of advance brokerage
commissions and expenses related to providing distribution-related and
Shareholder services to the Fund in connection with the sale of Class B shares,
such as the payment of compensation to dealers and agents for selling Class B
shares. The combination of the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the
distribution and Shareholder service fees facilitate the ability to the Fund to
sell the Class B shares without a sales charge being deducted at the time of
purchase.
The Plan and the Class B Plan are characterized as compensation plans since the
distribution fees will be paid to the Distributor without regard to the
distribution or Shareholder service expenses incurred by the Distributor or the
amount of payments made to financial institutions and intermediaries. The Fund
also may execute brokerage or other agency transactions through an affiliate of
the Adviser or through the Distributor for which the affiliate or the
Distributor receives compensation. Pursuant to guidelines adopted by the Board
of Trustees of the Trust, any such compensation will be reasonable and fair
compared to compensation received by other brokers in connection with
comparable transactions.
Fiduciary Class shares of the Fund are offered without distribution fees to
institutional investors, including Authorized Financial Organizations. It is
possible that an institution may offer different classes of shares to its
customers and thus receive different compensation with respect to different
classes of shares. In addition, a financial institution that is the record
owner of shares for the account of its customers may impose separate fees for
account services to its customers.
THE ADMINISTRATOR
The One Group(R) Services Company, (the "Administrator"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the BISYS Group, Inc., and the Trust are parties to an
administration agreement relating to the Fund (the "Administration Agreement").
Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, the Administrator is
responsible for providing the Trust with administrative services (other than
investment advisory services), including regulatory reporting and all necessary
office space, equipment, personnel and facilities.
The Adviser also serves as Sub-Administrator to each fund of the Trust,
pursuant to an agreement between the Administrator and the Adviser. Pursuant to
this agreement, the Adviser performs many of the Administrator's duties, for
which the Adviser receives a fee paid by the Administrator.
The Administrator is entitled to a fee for administrative services, which is
calculated daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of .10% of the Fund's
average daily net assets on the first $500,000,000 in Fund assets, .075% of the
Fund's average daily net assets between $500,000,000 and $1 billion, and .05%
of the Fund's average daily net assets when Fund assets exceed $1 billion.
THE TRANSFER AGENT AND CUSTODIAN
State Street Bank and Trust Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500 acts
as Transfer Agent and Custodian for the Trust, for which services it receives a
fee. The Custodian holds cash, securities and other assets of the Trust as
required by the Investment
20
<PAGE> 233
Company Act of 1940. Bank One Trust Company, N.A. serves as Sub-Custodian in
connection with the Trust's securities lending activities, pursuant to an
agreement between State Street Bank and Trust Company. Bank One Trust Company
receives a fee paid by the Trust.
COUNSEL AND INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
Ropes & Gray serves as counsel to the Trust. Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P. serves
as the independent accountants of the Trust.
OTHER INFORMATION
THE TRUST
The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts Business Trust under a Declaration
of Trust filed on May 23, 1985. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trust to
offer separate funds and different classes of each fund. All consideration
received by the Trust for shares of any fund and all assets of such fund belong
to that fund and would be subject to liabilities related thereto.
The Trust pays its expenses, including fees of its service providers, audit and
legal expenses, expenses of preparing prospectuses, proxy solicitation material
and reports to Shareholders, costs of custodial services and registering the
shares under Federal and state securities laws, pricing, insurance expenses,
litigation and other extraordinary expenses, brokerage costs, interest charges,
taxes and organizational expenses.
The Adviser and the Administrator of the Fund each bears all expenses incurred
in connection with the performance of their services as investment adviser and
administrator, respectively, other than the cost of securities (including
brokerage commissions, if any) purchased for the Fund.
As a general matter, as set forth in the Multiple Class Plan, expenses are
allocated to each class of shares of the Fund on the basis of the net asset
value of that class in relation to the net asset value of the Fund. At present,
the only expenses that are allocated to Class A and Class B shares, other than
in accordance with the relative net asset value of the class, are the
distribution and Shareholder services costs. See "Expense Summary." At present,
no expenses are allocated to Fiduciary Class shares as a class that are not
also borne by the other classes of shares of the Fund in proportion to the
relative net asset value of the shares of such classes.
The organizational expenses of the Fund have been capitalized and are being
amortized in the first five years of the Fund's operations. Such amortization
will reduce the amount of income available for payment as dividends.
TRUSTEES OF THE TRUST
The management and affairs of the Trust are supervised by the Trustees under
the laws governing business trusts in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The
Trustees have approved contracts under which, as described above, certain
companies provide essential management services to the Trust.
VOTING RIGHTS
As set forth in the Multiple Class Plan, each share held entitles the
Shareholder of record to one vote. Each fund of the Trust will vote separately
on matters relating solely to that fund. In addition, each class of a fund
shall have exclusive voting rights on any matter submitted to Shareholders that
relates solely to that class, and shall have separate voting rights on any
matter submitted to Shareholders in which the interests of one class differ
from the interests of any other class. However, all fund Shareholders will have
equal voting rights on matters that affect all fund Shareholders equally. As a
Massachusetts Business Trust, the Trust is not required to hold annual meetings
of Shareholders but approval will be sought for certain changes in the
operation of the Trust and for the election of Trustees under certain
circumstances. In addition, a Trustee may be elected or removed by the
remaining Trustees or by Shareholders at a special meeting called upon written
request of Shareholders owning at least 10% of the outstanding shares of the
Trust. In the event that such a meeting is requested, the Trust will provide
appropriate assistance and information to the Shareholders requesting the
meeting.
DIVIDENDS
Net investment income (exclusive of capital gains) is declared daily, and is
determined and distributed in the form of monthly dividends to Shareholders of
Record on the first Business Day of each month. Capital gains of the Fund, if
any, will be distributed at least annually.
21
<PAGE> 234
To maintain a relatively even rate of distributions from the Fund rather than
having substantial fluctuations from period to period, the monthly
distributions level from the Fund may be fixed from time to time at rates
consistent with the Adviser's long-term earnings expectations.
Shareholders automatically receive all income dividends and capital gain
distributions in additional Class A, Class B or Fiduciary Class shares, as
applicable, at the net asset value next determined following the record date,
unless the Shareholder has elected to take such payment in cash. Such election,
or any revocation thereof, must be made in writing, at least 15 days prior to
distribution, to the Transfer Agent at P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500,
and will become effective with respect to dividends and distributions having
record dates after its receipt by the Transfer Agent. Reinvested dividends and
distributions receive the same tax treatment as dividends and distributions
paid in cash.
Class B shares received as dividends and capital gains distributions at net
asset value next determined following the record date shall be held in a
separate Class B sub-account. Each time any Class B shares (other than those in
the sub-account) convert to Class A shares, a pro-rata portion of the Class B
shares in the sub-account will also convert to Class A shares. See "Conversion
Features."
Dividends and distributions of the Fund are paid on a per-share basis. The
value of each share will be reduced by the amount of the payment. If shares are
purchased shortly before the record date for a dividend or the distribution of
capital gains, a Shareholder will pay the full price for the shares and receive
some portion of the price back as a taxable dividend or distribution even
though such distribution would, in effect, represent a return of the
Shareholder's investment.
The amount of dividends payable on Fiduciary Class shares will be more than the
dividends payable on Class A and Class B shares because of the distribution
expenses charged to Class A and Class B shares.
SHAREHOLDER INQUIRIES
Shareholder inquiries should be directed to the Administrator, The One Group(R)
Services Company, 3435 Stelzer Road, Columbus, OH 43219.
REPORTING
The Trust issues unaudited financial information semiannually and audited
financial statements annually. The Trust furnishes proxy statements and other
reports to Shareholders of record.
OTHER INVESTMENT POLICIES
PORTFOLIO TURNOVER
Portfolio turnover rates vary greatly from year to year as well as within a
particular year. It is presently estimated that the annual portfolio turnover
rate for the Fund will not exceed 120%. Higher portfolio turnover will likely
result in higher transaction costs to the Fund and may result in additional tax
consequences to the Fund's Shareholders.
INVESTMENT LIMITATIONS
The investment objective and the following investment limitations are
fundamental policies of the Fund. Fundamental policies cannot be changed
without the consent of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding
shares. The term "majority of the outstanding shares" means the vote of (i) 67%
or more of the Fund's shares present at a meeting, if more than 50% of the
outstanding shares of the Fund are present or represented by proxy, or (ii)
more than 50% of the Fund's outstanding shares, whichever is less.
The Fund may not:
1. Purchase securities of any issuer (except securities issued or guaranteed by
the United States, its agencies or instrumentalities, securities of regulated
investment companies, and if consistent with the Fund's investment objective
and policies, repurchase agreements involving such securities) if as a result
more than 25% of the total assets of the Fund would be invested in the
securities of such issuer. This restriction applies to 50% of the Fund's total
assets. With respect to the remaining 50% of its total assets, the Fund may
not purchase the securities of any issuer if as a result more than 5% of the
total assets of the Fund would be invested in the securities of such issuer.
For purposes of this limitation, a security is considered to be issued by the
government entity whose assets and revenues guarantee or back the security.
With respect to private activity bonds or industrial development bonds backed
only by the assets and revenues of a non-governmental user, such user would be
considered the issuer.
2. Purchase any securities that would cause more than 25% of the total assets
of the Fund to be invested in the securities of one or more issuers conducting
their principal business activities in the same industry, except for
investments in funds of The One Group(R), provided that this limitation does not
apply to
22
<PAGE> 235
investments in obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its
agencies and instrumentalities and repurchase agreements involving such
securities. For purposes of this limitation (i) utilities will be divided
according to their services (for example, gas, gas transmission, electric and
telephone will each be considered a separate industry); and (ii) wholly-owned
finance companies will be considered to be in the industries of their parents
if their activities are primarily related to financing the activities of their
parents.
3. Make loans, except that the Fund may (i) purchase or hold debt instruments
in accordance with its investment objective and policies; (ii) enter into
repurchase agreements; and (iii) engage in securities lending as described in
this Prospectus and in the Statement of Additional Information.
The foregoing percentages will apply at the time of the purchase of a security.
Additional investment limitations are set forth in the Statement of Additional
Information. For the investment limitations of the Underlying Funds, see the
applicable prospectuses.
DESCRIPTION OF PERMITTED INVESTMENTS
The following is a description of certain of the permitted investments for the
Underlying Funds. As described above in "Investment Policies of the Fund -
Permissible Investments," the Fund may also invest directly in certain of the
following instruments for temporary defensive purposes. For a more detailed
description, see the Statement of Additional Information or the prospectuses of
the Underlying Funds.
U.S. TREASURY OBLIGATIONS -- The funds may invest in bills, notes and issued by
the U.S. Treasury and separately traded interest and principal component parts
of such obligations that are transferable through the Federal book-entry system
known as Separately Traded Registered Interest and Principal Securities
("STRIPS").
RECEIPTS -- The funds may purchase interests in separately traded interest and
principal component parts of U.S. Treasury obligations that are issued by banks
or brokerage firms and are created by depositing U.S. Treasury notes and U.S.
Treasury bonds into a special account at a custodian bank. Receipts include
Treasury Receipts ("TRS"), Treasury Investment Growth Receipts ("TIGRS"), and
Certificates of Accrual on Treasury Securities ("CATS").
CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT -- Certificates of deposit ("CDs") are negotiable
interest bearing instruments with a specific maturity. CDs are issued by banks
and savings and loan institutions in exchange for the deposit of funds and
normally can be traded in the secondary market prior to maturity.
TIME DEPOSITS -- Time deposits are non-negotiable receipts issued by a bank in
exchange for the deposit of funds. Like a certificate of deposit, a time
deposit ("TD") earns a specified rate of interest over a definite period of
time; however, it cannot be traded in the secondary market.
BANKERS' ACCEPTANCES -- Bankers' acceptances are bills of exchange or time
drafts drawn on and accepted by (i.e., made an obligation of) a commercial
bank. Maturities are generally six months or less.
COMMERCIAL PAPER -- Commercial paper is the term used to designate unsecured
short-term promissory notes issued by corporations and other entities.
Maturities on these issues vary from a few days to nine months.
U.S. GOVERNMENT AGENCIES -- Certain Federal agencies have been established as
instrumentalities of the U.S. government to supervise and finance specific
types of activities. Select agencies, such as the Government National Mortgage
Association ("Ginnie Mae") and the Export-Import Bank, are supported by the
full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury; others, such as the Federal
National Mortgage Association ("Fannie Mae"), are supported by the credit of
the instrumentality and have the right to borrow from the U.S. Treasury; others
are supported by the authority of the U.S. government to purchase the agency's
obligations; while still others, such as the Federal Farm Credit Banks and the
Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac"), are supported solely by
the credit of the instrumentality itself. No assurance can be given that the
U.S. government would provide financial support to U.S. government sponsored
agencies or instrumentalities if it is not obligated to do so by law.
Obligations of U.S. government agencies include debt issues and mortgage-backed
securities issued or guaranteed by select agencies.
CORPORATE SECURITIES -- Corporate securities include corporate bonds,
convertible and non-convertible debt securities, and preferred stocks, as well
as commercial paper (short-term promissory notes issued by corporations).
Issuers of corporate bonds and notes are divided into many different categories
by bond market sector, such as electric utilities, gas utilities, telephone
utilities, consumer finance companies, wholesale finance companies and
industrial companies. Within each major category of issuer, there are many
subcategories.
23
<PAGE> 236
WARRANTS -- Warrants are securities, typically issued with preferred stock or
bonds, that give the holder the right to buy a proportionate amount of common
stock at a specified price, usually at a price that is higher than the market
price at the time of issuance of the warrant. The right may last for a period
of years or indefinitely.
COMMON STOCK -- Common stock represents a share of ownership in a company and
usually carries voting rights and earns dividends. Unlike preferred stock,
dividends on common stock are not fixed but are declared at the discretion of
the issuer's board of directors.
INVESTMENT COMPANY SECURITIES -- The funds may invest up to 5% of their total
assets in the securities of any one investment company, but may not own more
than 3% of the securities of any one investment company or invest more than 10%
of their assets in the securities of other investment companies.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- Repurchase agreements are agreements by which a person
obtains a security and simultaneously commits to return the security to the
seller at an agreed upon price (including principal and interest) on an agreed
upon date within a number of days from the date of purchase. The custodian or
its agent will hold the security as collateral for the repurchase agreement.
Collateral must be maintained at a value at least equal to 100% of the
repurchase price. The funds bear a risk of loss in the event the other party
defaults on its obligations and the funds are delayed or prevented from their
right to dispose of the collateral securities or if the funds realize a loss on
the sale of the collateral securities.
REVERSE REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS - The funds may borrow funds for temporary
purposes by entering into reverse repurchase agreements. Pursuant to such
agreements, the funds would sell portfolio securities to financial institutions
such as banks and broker-dealers, and agree to repurchase them at a mutually
agreed-upon date and price. The funds will enter into reverse repurchase
agreements only to avoid otherwise selling securities during unfavorable market
conditions to meet redemptions. At the time the funds enter into a reverse
repurchase agreement, they would place liquid high grade debt securities having
a value equal to the repurchase price (including accrued interest), in a
segregated custodial account and would subsequently monitor the account to
ensure that such equivalent value is maintained. Reverse repurchase agreements
involve the risk that the market value of the securities sold by the funds may
decline below the price at which the funds are obligated to repurchase the
securities.
DEMAND FEATURES - The funds may acquire securities that are subject to puts and
standby commitments ("demand features") to purchase the securities at their
principal amount at a fixed price (usually with accrued interest) within a
fixed period (usually seven days) following a demand by the funds. The purpose
of engaging in transactions involving puts is to maintain flexibility and
liquidity to permit the funds to meet redemption requests and remain as fully
invested as possible.
ASSET-BACKED SECURITIES - Asset-backed securities consist of securities secured
by company receivables, home equity loans, truck and auto loans, leases, credit
card receivables and other securities backed by other types of receivables or
other assets. These securities are generally pass-through securities, which
means that principal and interest payments on the underlying securities (less
servicing fees) are passed through to shareholders on a pro rata basis. These
securities involve prepayment risk, which is the risk that the underlying debt
will be refinanced or paid off prior to their maturities during periods of
declining interest rates. In that case, a portfolio manager may have to
reinvest the proceeds from the securities at a lower rate. Potential market
gains on a security subject to prepayment risk may be more limited than
potential market gains on a comparable security that is not subject to
prepayment risk. Under certain interest rate and prepayment rate scenarios, the
funds may fail to recoup fully their investment in asset-backed securities.
Asset-backed securities are commonly considered to be derivatives.
SHORT-TERM FUNDING AGREEMENTS - The funds may, in order to enhance yield, make
limited investments in short-term funding agreements issued by banks and highly
rated insurance companies. Short-term funding agreements issued by insurance
companies are sometimes referred to as Guaranteed Investment Contracts
("GICs"), while those issued by banks are referred to as Bank Investment
Contracts ("BICs"). Pursuant to such agreements, the funds make cash
contributions to a deposit account at a bank or insurance company. The bank or
insurance company then credits to the funds on a monthly basis guaranteed
interest at either a fixed, variable or floating rate. These contracts are
general obligations of the issuing bank or insurance company and are paid from
the general assets of the issuing entity. The funds will purchase short-term
funding agreements only from banks and insurance companies which, at the time
of purchase, are rated "A" or the equivalent by at least one NRSRO and have
assets of $1 billion or more. Generally, there is no active secondary market
in short-term funding agreements.
SECURITIES OF FOREIGN ISSUERS -- The funds may invest in securities of foreign
issuers to achieve income or capital appreciation. The funds also may invest in
commercial paper of foreign issuers and obligations of foreign branches of U.S.
banks, U.S. and London branches of foreign banks, and supranational entities
which are established through the joint participation of several governments
(e.g., the Asian Development Bank and the Inter-American Development Bank).
Securities of foreign issuers may include sponsored and unsponsored American
Depository Receipts ("ADRs"), which are securities typically issued by a U.S.
financial institution that evidence ownership interests in a pool of securities
issued by a foreign issuer. ADRs include American Depository Shares and New
24
<PAGE> 237
York Shares. There may be less information available on the foreign issuers of
unsponsored ADRs than on the issuers of sponsored ADRs.
MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES--Mortgage-backed securities are debt obligations
secured by real estate loans and pools of loans. The funds may acquire
securities representing an interest in a pool of mortgage loans that are issued
or guaranteed by Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Mortgage-backed
securities may also be issued by non-governmental entities and may or may not
have private insurer guarantees of timely payments. The funds also may invest
in mortgage-backed securities issued by non-government entities, which consist
of Collateralized Mortgage Obligations ("CMOs") and Real Estate Mortgage
Investment Conduits ("REMICs"). Mortgage-backed securities are in most cases
"pass-through" instruments, through which the holder receives a share of all
interest and principal payments from the mortgages underlying the certificate.
Because the prepayment characteristics of the underlying mortgages vary, it is
not possible to predict accurately the average life or realized yield of a
particular issue of pass-through certificates. During periods of declining
interest rates, prepayment of mortgages underlying mortgage-backed securities
can be expected to accelerate. When the mortgage obligations are prepaid, the
funds may have to reinvest in securities with a lower yield. Moreover,
prepayment of mortgages which underlie securities purchased at a premium could
result in capital losses.
STRIPPED MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES--The funds may, to enhance revenues or
hedge against interest rate risk, invest in stripped mortgage-backed securities
("SMBS"), which are derivative multi-class mortgage securities. The funds may
only invest in SMBS issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies
or instrumentalities. SMBS are usually structured with two classes that receive
different proportions of the interest and principal distributions from a pool
of mortgage assets. A common type of SMBS will have one class receiving all of
the interest from the mortgage assets ("IOs"), while the other class will
receive all of the principal ("POs"). If the underlying mortgage assets
experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, the funds may
fail to fully recoup their initial investment in these securities. Although the
market for such securities is increasingly liquid, certain SMBS may not be
readily marketable and will be considered illiquid for purposes of the funds'
limitations on investments in illiquid securities. The market value of the
class consisting entirely of principal payments generally is unusually volatile
in response to changes in interest rates.
MORTGAGE DOLLAR ROLLS--The funds may enter into mortgage "dollar rolls" in
which the funds sell securities for delivery in the current month and
simultaneously contract with the same counterparty to repurchase similar (same
type, coupon and maturity) but not identical securities on a specified future
date. The funds benefit to the extent of any difference between the price
received for the securities sold and the lower forward price for the future
purchase (often referred to as the "drop") or fee income plus the interest
earned on the cash proceeds of the securities sold until the settlement date of
the forward purchase. Unless such benefits exceed the income, capital
appreciation and gain or loss due to mortgage prepayments that would have been
realized on the securities sold as part of the mortgage dollar roll, the use of
this technique will diminish the investment performance of the funds compared
with what such performance would have been without the use of mortgage dollar
rolls.
FIXED RATE MORTGAGE LOANS--Generally, fixed rate mortgage loans eligible for
inclusion in a mortgage pool will bear simple interest at fixed annual rates
and have original terms to maturity ranging from 5 to 40 years. The funds may
invest in fixed rate mortgage loans that are privately issued and are not
issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government.
SECURITIES LENDING -- In order to generate additional income, the funds may
lend up to 33% of the securities in which they are invested pursuant to
agreements requiring that the loan be continuously secured by cash, securities
of the U.S. government or its agencies, shares of an investment trust or
mutual fund or any combination of cash and such securities as collateral equal
at all times to at least 100% of the market value plus accrued interest on the
securities lent. The funds will continue to receive interest on the securities
lent while simultaneously seeking to earn interest on the investment of cash
collateral in U.S. government securities, shares of an investment trust or
mutual fund, or other short-term, highly liquid investments. Collateral is
marked to market daily to provide a level of collateral at least equal to the
market value of the securities lent. There may be risks of delay in recovery of
the securities or even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of
the securities fail financially. However, loans will only be made to borrowers
deemed by the Adviser to be of good standing under guidelines established by
the Trust's Board of Trustees and when, in the judgment of the Adviser, the
consideration which can be earned currently from such securities loans
justifies the attendant risk. The funds will enter into loan arrangements only
with counterparties which the Adviser has deemed to be creditworthy under
guidelines established by the Board of Trustees. Loans are subject to
termination by the funds or the borrower at any time, and are therefore, not
considered to be illiquid investments.
RESTRICTED SECURITIES -- The funds may invest in commercial paper issued in
reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933. Section 4(2) commercial paper is restricted as to
disposition under Federal securities law and is generally sold to institutional
investors, such as the funds, who agree that they are purchasing the paper for
investment purposes and not with a view to public distribution.
25
<PAGE> 238
VARIABLE AND FLOATING RATE INSTRUMENTS -- Certain of the obligations purchased
by the funds may carry variable or floating rates of interest, may involve a
conditional or unconditional demand feature and may include variable amount
master demand notes. The interest rates on these securities may be reset daily,
weekly, quarterly or some other reset period, and may have a floor or ceiling
on interest rate changes. There is a risk that the current interest rate on
such obligations may not accurately reflect existing market interest rates.
SECURITIES PURCHASED ON A WHEN-ISSUED BASIS AND FORWARD COMMITMENTS -- The
funds may purchase securities on a when-issued basis when deemed by the Adviser
to present attractive investment opportunities. When-issued securities are
purchased for delivery beyond the normal settlement date at a stated price and
yield, thereby involving the risk that the yield obtained will be less than
that available in the market at delivery. When the Adviser purchases a
when-issued security, the Custodian will set aside cash or liquid securities to
satisfy the purchase commitment. The funds generally will not pay for such
securities or earn interest on them until received. In a forward commitment
transaction, the funds contract to purchase securities for a fixed price at a
future date beyond customary settlement time. The funds are required to hold
and maintain in a segregated account until the settlement date, cash, U.S.
government securities or liquid high-grade debt obligations in an amount
sufficient to meet the purchase price. Alternatively, the funds may enter into
offsetting contracts for the forward sale of other securities that they own.
The purchase of securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis
involves a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines
prior to the settlement date
OPTIONS -- The funds may purchase and write (i.e., sell) call options and put
options on securities and indices, which options are traded on national
securities exchanges. A call option gives the purchaser the right to buy, and
obligates the writer of the option to sell, the underlying security at the
agreed upon exercise (or "strike") price during the option period. A put option
gives the purchaser the right to sell, and obligates the writer to buy, the
underlying security at the strike price during the option period. There are
risks associated with options transactions, including the following: (i) the
success of a hedging strategy may depend on the ability of the Adviser to
predict movements in the prices of the individual securities, fluctuations in
markets and movements in interest rates; (ii) there may be an imperfect or no
correlation between the changes in market value of the securities held by the
funds and the prices of options; (iii) there may not be a liquid secondary
market for options; and (iv) while the funds will receive a premium when they
write covered call options, they may not participate fully in a rise in the
market value of the underlying security. It is expected that the funds will
only engage in option transactions with respect to permitted investments and
related indices.
FUTURES CONTRACTS AND RELATED OPTIONS -- Certain of the funds may enter into
futures contracts, options on futures contracts, index futures and options
thereon that are traded on an exchange regulated by the Commodities Futures
Trading Commission ("CFTC") if, to the extent that such futures and options are
not for "bona fide hedging purposes" (as defined by the CFTC), the aggregate
initial margin and premiums on such positions (excluding the amount by which
options are in the money) do not exceed 5% of the funds' total assets at
current value. Options and futures can be volatile instruments, and involve
certain risks. If the Adviser applies a hedge at an inappropriate time or
judges interest rates incorrectly, options and futures strategies may lower a
fund's return. The funds could also experience losses if the prices of their
options and futures positions were poorly correlated with their other
instruments, or if they could not close out their positions because of an
illiquid secondary market.
SWAPS, CAPS AND FLOORS -- In order to protect the value of the funds from
interest rate fluctuations and to hedge against fluctuations in the floating
rate market in which the funds' investments are traded, the funds may enter
into swaps, caps, and floors on various securities (such as U.S. government
securities), securities indexes, interest rates, prepayment rates, foreign
currencies or other financial instruments or indexes, for both hedging and
non-hedging purposes. Swap contracts typically involve an exchange of
obligations by two sophisticated parties. For example, in an interest rate
swap, a fund may exchange with another party their respective rights to receive
interest, such as an exchange of fixed rate payments for floating rate
payments. Currency swaps involve the exchange of respective rights to make or
receive payments in specified currencies. Mortgage swaps are similar to
interest rate swaps in that they represent commitments to pay and receive
interest. The notional principal amount, however, is tied to a reference pool
or pools of mortgages.
Caps and floors are variations on swaps. The purchase of a cap entitles the
purchaser to receive a principal amount from the party selling the cap to the
extent that a specified index exceeds a predetermined interest rate or amount.
The purchase of an interest rate floor entitles the purchaser to receive
payments on a notional principal amount from the party selling the floor to the
extent that a specified index falls below a predetermined interest rate or
amount. Caps and floors are similar in many respects to over-the-counter
options transactions, and may involve investment risks that are similar to
those associated with options transactions and options on futures contracts.
NEW FINANCIAL PRODUCTS -- New options and futures contracts and other financial
products, and various combinations thereof, continue to be developed and the
funds may invest in any such options, contracts and products as may be
developed to the extent consistent with their investment objective, policies
and restrictions and the regulatory requirements applicable to investment
companies. These various products may be used to adjust the risk and return
characteristics of the funds' portfolio of investments.
26
<PAGE> 239
These various products may increase or decrease exposure to security prices,
interest rates, commodity prices, or other factors that affect security values,
regardless of the issuer's credit risk. If market conditions do not perform
consistent with expectations, the performance of the funds would be less
favorable than it would have been if these products were not used. In addition,
losses may occur if counterparties involved in transactions do not perform as
promised. These products may expose the funds to potentially greater return as
well as potentially greater risk of loss than more traditional fixed-income
investments.
STRUCTURED INSTRUMENTS - Structured instruments are debt securities issued by
agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government (such as Sallie Mae,
Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac), banks, municipalities, corporations,
and other business entities whose interest and/or principal payments are
indexed to certain specific foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, or
one or more other reference indices. Structured instruments frequently are
assembled in the form of medium-term notes, but a variety of forms are
available. Structured instruments are commonly considered to be derivatives.
While structured instruments may offer the potential for a favorable rate of
return from time to time, they also entail certain risks. Structured
instruments may be less liquid than other debt securities, and the price of
structured instruments may be more volatile. If the value of the reference
index changes in a manner other than that expected by the Adviser, principal
and/or interest payments on the structured instrument may be substantially less
than expected. In addition, although structured instruments may be sold in the
form of a corporate debt obligation, they may not have some of the protection
against counterparty default that may be available with respect to publicly
traded debt securities (i.e., the existence of a trust indenture).
MUNICIPAL SECURITIES - Municipal Securities are issued by a state or political
subdivision to obtain funds for various public purposes. Municipal securities
are generally classified as "general obligation" bonds and "revenue" bonds.
General obligation bonds are obligations involving the credit of an issuer
possessing taxing power and are payable from the issuer's general unrestricted
revenues. Revenue bonds are payable only from the revenues derived from a
particular facility or class of facilities or, in some cases, from the proceeds
of a special excise or other specific revenue source. Revenue bonds are not
payable from the issuer's general revenues. The funds also may purchase
short-term tax-exempt General Obligation Notes, Tax Anticipation Notes, Bond
Anticipation Notes, Revenue Anticipation Notes, Project Notes, and other forms
of short-term tax-exempt obligations. Such notes are issued with a short-term
maturity in anticipation of the receipt of tax funds, the proceeds of bond
placements, or other revenues.
An issuer's obligations under its municipal securities are subject to the
provisions of bankruptcy, insolvency, and other laws affecting the rights and
remedies of creditors, such as the federal bankruptcy code, and laws, if any,
which may be enacted by Congress or state legislatures extending the time for
payment of principal or interest, or both, or imposing other constraints upon
the enforcement of such obligations. The power or ability of an issuer to meet
its obligations for the payment of interest on and principal of its municipal
securities may be materially adversely affected by litigation or other
conditions. Such litigation or conditions may from time to time have the effect
of introducing uncertainties in the market for tax-exempt obligations or
certain segments thereof, or may materially affect the credit risk with respect
to particular bonds or notes. Adverse economic, business, legal or political
developments might affect all or a substantial portion of a fund's municipal
securities in the same manner. In addition, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code") imposes certain continuing requirements on issuers of
tax-exempt bonds regarding the use, expenditure and investment of bond proceeds
and the payment of rebates to the United States of America. Failure by the
issuer to comply subsequent to the issuance of tax-exempt bonds with certain of
these requirements could cause interest on the bonds to become includable in
gross income retroactive to the date of issuance.
INVERSE FLOATING RATE INSTRUMENTS -- The funds may seek to increase yield by
investing in leveraged inverse floating rate debt instruments ("inverse
floaters"). The interest rate on an inverse floater resets in the opposite
direction from the market rate of interest to which the inverse floater is
indexed. An inverse floater may be considered to be leveraged to the extent
that its interest rate varies by a magnitude that exceeds the magnitude of the
change in the index rate of interest. The higher degree of leverage inherent in
inverse floaters is associated with greater volatility in their market values.
Accordingly, the duration of an inverse floater may exceed its stated final
maturity.
DESCRIPTION OF RATINGS
The following descriptions are summaries of published ratings.
DESCRIPTION OF COMMERCIAL PAPER RATINGS
The following descriptions of commercial paper ratings have been published by
Standard & Poor's Corporation ("S&P"), Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's"),
Fitch's Investors Service ("Fitch"), Duff and Phelps ("Duff"), and IBCA Limited
("IBCA"), respectively.
27
<PAGE> 240
Commercial paper rated A by S&P is regarded by S&P as having the greatest
capacity for timely payment. Issues rated A are further refined by use of the
numbers 1+, 1 and 2 to indicate the relative degree of safety. Issues rated
A-1+ are those with an "overwhelming degree" of credit protection. Those rated
A-1 reflect a "very strong" degree of safety regarding timely payment. Those
rated A-2 reflect a high degree of safety regarding timely payment but not as
high as A-1.
Commercial paper issues rated Prime-1 and Prime-2 by Moody's are judged by
Moody's to be of the "highest" quality and "higher" quality, respectively, on
the basis of relative repayment capacity.
The rating Fitch-1 (Highest Grade) is the highest commercial rating assigned by
Fitch. Paper rated Fitch-1 is regarded as having the strongest degree of
assurance for timely payment. The rating Fitch-2 (Very Good Grade) is the
second highest commercial paper rating assigned by Fitch which reflects an
assurance of timely payment only slightly less in degree than the strongest
issues.
The rating Duff-1 is the highest commercial paper rating assigned by Duff.
Paper rated Duff-1 is regarded as having very high certainty of timely payment
with excellent liquidity factors which are supported by ample asset protection.
Risk factors are minor. Paper rated Duff-2 is regarded as having good certainty
of timely payment, good access to capital markets and sound liquidity factors
and company fundamentals. Risk factors are small.
The designation A1 by IBCA indicates that the obligation is supported by a very
strong capacity for timely repayment. Those obligations rated A1+ are supported
by the highest capacity for timely repayment. Obligations rated A2 are
supported by a strong capacity for timely repayment, although such capacity may
be susceptible to adverse changes in business, economic or financial
conditions.
DESCRIPTION OF CORPORATE/MUNICIPAL BOND RATINGS
The following descriptions of S&P's and Moody's corporate and municipal bond
ratings have been published by S&P and Moody's, respectively.
Standard & Poor's Rating Services
Investment Grade
- ----------------
Bonds rated AAA have the highest rating S&P assigns to a debt obligation. Such
a rating indicates an extremely strong capacity to pay principal and interest.
Bonds rated AA also qualify as high-quality debt obligations. Capacity to pay
principal and interest is very strong, and in the majority of instances they
differ from AAA issues only in a small degree. Debt rated A has a strong
capacity to pay interest and repay principal although it is somewhat more
susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic
conditions than debt in higher rated categories.
Bonds rated BBB by S&P are regarded as having an adequate capacity to pay
interest and repay principal. Whereas it normally exhibits adequate protection
parameters, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more
likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay interest and repay principal for
bonds in this category than in higher categories.
Non-Investment Grade
- --------------------
Bonds rated BB have less near-term vulnerability to default than other
speculative issues. However, they face major ongoing uncertainties or exposure
to adverse business, financial or economic conditions which could lead to
inadequate capacity to meet timely interest and principal payments. The BB
rated category is also used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied BBB rating.
Bonds rated B have a greater vulnerability to default but currently have the
capacity to meet interest payments and principal repayments. Adverse business,
financial or economic conditions will likely impair capacity or willingness to
pay interest and repay principal. The B rating category is also used for debt
subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an actual or implied BB or
BB-rating.
Bonds rated CCC have currently identifiable vulnerability to default, and are
dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions to meet
timely payment of interest and repayment of principal. In the event of adverse
business, financial, or economic conditions, they are not likely to have the
capacity to pay interest and repay principal. The CCC rating category is also
used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an actual or implied
B or B- rating.
The rating CC typically is applied to debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied CCC rating.
28
<PAGE> 241
The rating C typically is applied to debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied CCC rating. The C rating may be used to cover a
situation where a bankruptcy petition has been filed, but debt service payments
are continued.
The rating C1 is reserved for income bonds on which no interest is being paid.
Bonds rated D are in payment default. The D rating category is used when
interest payments or principal payments are not made on the date due, even if
the applicable grace period has not expired, unless Standard & Poor believes
that such payments will be made during such grace period. The D rating also
will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition if debt service payments
are jeopardized.
Plus (+) or minus (-). Ratings from AA to CCC may be modified by the addition
of a plus or minus sign to show relative standing within the major rating
categories.
Moody's Investor Service, Inc.
Investment Grade
- ----------------
Bonds that are rated Aaa by Moody's are judged to be of the best quality. They
carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally referred to as
"gilt edge." Interest payments are protected by a large, or an exceptionally
stable, margin and principal is secure. While the various protective elements
are likely to change, such changes as can be visualized are most unlikely to
impair the fundamentally strong position of such issues. Bonds rated Aa by
Moody's are judged by Moody's to be of high quality by all standards. Together
with bonds rated Aaa, they comprise what are generally known as high-grade
bonds. They are rated lower than the best bonds because margins of protection
may not be as large as in Aaa securities or fluctuation of protective elements
may be of greater amplitude or there may be other elements present that make
the long-term risks appear somewhat larger than in Aaa securities. Bonds that
are rated A possess many favorable investment attributes and are to be
considered as upper-medium grade obligations. Factors giving security to
principal and interest are considered adequate, but elements may be present
which suggest a susceptibility to impairment sometime in the future.
Bonds that are rated Baa by Moody's are considered as medium-grade obligations
(i.e., they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured). Interest payments
and principal security appear adequate for the present but certain protective
elements may be lacking or may be characteristically unreliable over any great
length of time. Such bonds lack outstanding investment characteristics and in
fact have speculative characteristics as well.
Changes in economic conditions or other circumstances are more likely to lead
to a weakened capacity of the issuers of securities rated BBB or Baa to make
principal and interest payments than is the case with higher grade securities.
Non-Investment Grade
- --------------------
Bonds rated Ba are more uncertain and have speculative elements. The protection
of interest and principal payments is not well safeguarded during good and bad
times. Bonds rated B lack the characteristics of a desirable investment (i.e.,
potentially low assurance of timely interest and principal payments or
maintenance of other contract terms over time).
Bonds rated Caa have poor standing and may be in default. These bonds carry an
element of danger with respect to principal and interest payments. Bonds rated
Ca are speculative to a high degree and could be in default or have other
marked shortcomings. C is the lowest rating. Bonds in this category have
extremely poor prospects of ever attaining investment standing.
Unrated securities will be treated as non-investment grade securities unless
the Adviser determines that such securities are the equivalent of investment
grade securities. Securities that have received different ratings from more
than one agency are considered investment grade if at least one agency has
rated the security investment grade.
DESCRIPTION OF MUNICIPAL NOTE RATINGS
Moody's highest rating for state, municipal and other short-term notes is MIG-1
and VMIG-1. Short-term municipal securities rated MIG-1 or VMIG-1 are of the
best quality. They have strong protection from established cash flows of funds
for their servicing or from established and broad-based access to the market
for refinancing or both. Short-term municipal securities rated MIG-2 and VMIG-2
are of high quality. Margins of protection are ample although not so large as
in the preceding group.
29
<PAGE> 242
An S&P note rating reflects the liquidity concerns and market access risks
unique to notes. Notes due in three years or less will likely receive a note
rating. Notes maturing beyond three years will most likely receive a long-term
debt rating. The following criteria will be used in making that assessment:
- - Amortization schedule (the larger the final maturity relative to other
maturities the more likely it will be treated as a note).
- - Source of Payment (the more dependent the issue is on the market for its
refinancing, the more likely it will be treated as a note).
Note rating symbols are as follows:
SP-1 Very strong or strong capacity to pay principal and interest. Those issues
determined to possess overwhelming safety characteristics will be given a plus
(+) designation.
SP-2 Satisfactory capacity to pay principal and interest.
MISCELLANEOUS
PERFORMANCE
From time to time, the Fund may advertise yield, total return and/or
distribution rate. These figures will be based on historical earnings and are
not intended to indicate future performance. The yield of the Fund refers to
the annualized income generated by an investment in the Fund over a specified
30-day period. The yield is calculated by assuming that the income generated by
the investment during that period is generated over a one-year period and is
shown as a percentage of the investment.
Total return is the change in value of an investment in the Fund over a given
period, assuming reinvestment of any dividends and capital gains. A cumulative
total return reflects an actual rate of return over a stated period of time. An
average annual total return is a hypothetical rate of return that, if achieved
annually, would have produced the same cumulative total return if performance
had been constant over the entire period. Average annual total returns smooth
out variations in performance; they are not the same as actual year-by-year
results.
The distribution rate is computed by dividing the total amount of the dividends
per share paid out during the past period by the maximum offering price or
month-end net asset value depending on the class of the Fund. This figure is
then "annualized" (multiplied by 365 days and divided by the applicable number
of days in the period). Funds with a front-end sales charge would incorporate
the offering price into the distribution yield in place of month-end net asset
value.
Distribution rate is a measure of the level of income paid out in cash to
Shareholders over a specified period. It differs from yield and total return
and is not intended to be a complete measure of performance. Furthermore, the
distribution rate may include return of principal and/or capital gains. Total
return is the change in value of a hypothetical investment over a given period
assuming reinvestment of dividends and capital gain distributions. The yield
refers to the cumulative 30-day rolling net investment income, divided by
maximum offering price and multiplied by average shares outstanding during this
period. See the Statement of Additional Information.
The Trust will include information on all classes of shares of the Fund in any
advertisement or information including performance data for the Fund. The
performance for Fiduciary Class shares may be higher than for Class A shares
and Class B shares because Fiduciary Class shares are not subject to sales
charges and distribution expenses.
The performance of each class of the Fund may from time to time be compared to
that of other mutual funds tracked by mutual fund rating services, to that of
broad groups of comparable mutual funds or to that of unmanaged indices that
may assume investment of dividends but do not reflect deductions for
administrative and management costs. In addition, the performance of each class
of the Fund may be compared to other funds or to relevant indices that may
calculate total return without reflecting sales charges; in which case, the
Fund may advertise its total return in the same manner. If reflected, sales
charges would reduce these total return calculations.
TAXES
The following summary of Federal income tax consequences is based on current
tax laws and regulations, which may be changed by legislative, judicial or
administrative action. No attempt has been made to present a complete
explanation of the Federal, state, local or foreign tax treatment of the Fund
or its Shareholders. Accordingly, Shareholders are urged to consult their tax
advisers regarding specific questions as to the tax consequences of investing
in the Fund.
30
<PAGE> 243
TAX STATUS OF THE FUND
The Fund is treated as a separate entity for Federal income tax purposes and is
not combined with the Trust's other funds. The Fund intends to qualify as a
"regulated investment company" for Federal income tax purposes and to meet all
other requirements that are necessary for it to be relieved of Federal taxes on
that part of its net investment income and net capital gains (the excess of net
long-term capital gain over net short-term capital loss) that is distributed to
Shareholders.
TAX STATUS OF DISTRIBUTIONS
The Fund will distribute substantially all of its net investment income
(including, for this purpose, net short-term capital gain) to Shareholders of
each class of shares of the Fund on at least an annual basis. Generally,
dividends from net investment income will be taxable to Shareholders as
ordinary income whether received in cash or in additional shares, and any net
capital gains will be distributed at least annually and will be taxed to
Shareholders as long-term capital gains, regardless of how long the Shareholder
has held shares.
Distributions by the Fund to retirement plans that qualify for tax-exempt
treatment under the Code ("qualified retirement plans") will not be taxable.
The Federal tax treatment of qualified retirement plans, as well as
distributions from such plans, is governed by specific provisions of the Code.
If shares are held by a retirement plan that ceases to qualify for tax-exempt
treatment under the Code or by an individual who has received such shares as a
distribution from a retirement plan, the Fund's distributions will be taxable
to such plan or individual as described in the preceding paragraph. Persons
considering directing the investment of their qualified retirement plan account
in the Fund and qualified retirement plan trusts considering purchasing such
shares, should consult their tax advisers for a more complete explanation of
the Federal tax consequences, and for an explanation of the state, local and
(if applicable) foreign tax consequences of making such an investment.
The Fund will make annual reports to Shareholders of the Federal income tax
status of all distributions.
Certain securities purchased by the Fund (such as STRIPS, CUBES, TRS, TIGRS and
CATS), as defined in the "Description of Permitted Investments," are sold at
original issue discount and thus do not make periodic cash interest payments.
The Fund will be required to include as part of its current income the imputed
interest on such obligations even though the Fund has not received any interest
payments on such obligations during that period. Because the Fund distributes
substantially all of its net investment income to its Shareholders (including
such imputed interest), the Fund may have to sell portfolio securities in order
to generate the cash necessary for the required distributions. Such sales may
occur at a time when the Adviser would not have chosen to sell such securities
and may result in a taxable gain or loss.
Dividends declared by the Fund in October, November or December of any year and
payable to Shareholders of record on a date in such a month will be deemed to
have been paid by the Fund and received by Shareholders on December 31 of that
year, if paid by the Fund at any time during the following January.
The Fund intends to make sufficient distributions prior to the end of each
calendar year to avoid liability for Federal excise tax.
Dividends received by a Shareholder that are derived from the Fund's
investments in U.S. government obligations may not be entitled to the
exemptions from state and local income taxes that would be available if the
Shareholder had purchased U.S. government obligations directly. The Fund will
inform Shareholders annually of the percentage of income and distributions
derived from U.S. government obligations. Shareholders should consult their tax
advisers regarding the state and local tax treatment of the dividends received
from the Fund.
The Fund may be subject to foreign withholding taxes on income derived from
obligations of foreign issuers. The Fund will not be able to elect to treat
Shareholders as having paid their proportionate share of such foreign taxes.
Sale, exchange or redemption of Fund shares by a Shareholder will generally be
a taxable event to such Shareholder.

(1) A person who purchases shares through an account with a financial
institution or broker/dealer may be charged separate transaction fees by
the financial institution or broker/dealer. In addition, a wire redemption
charge, currently $7.00, is deducted from the amount of a wire redemption
payment made at the request of a Shareholder.
(2) A person who purchases $1 million or more of Class A shares and is not
assessed a sales charge at the time of purchase, will be assessed a sales
charge equivalent to 1% of the purchase price if such purchaser redeems any
or all of the Class A shares prior to the first anniversary of purchase.
(3) Absent the voluntary waiver of fees under the Trust's Distribution and
Shareholder Services Plan, 12b-1 fees (as a percentage of average daily net
assets) would be .35% for Class A shares and 1.00% for Class B shares. The
12b-1 fees include a Shareholder servicing fee of .25% of average daily net
assets of the Fund's Class B shares and may include a Shareholder servicing
fee of .25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Class A shares.

The Fund will indirectly bear its pro rata share of fees and expenses incurred
by the Underlying Funds, and the investment returns of the Fund will be net of
the expenses of the Underlying Funds. The following chart provides the expense
ratio for each of the Underlying Funds in which the Fund invests (based on the
current Underlying Fund prospectus). Certain of these expenses ratios may
include a voluntary reduction of investment advisory fees.

THE FUND
The One Group(R) Investor Fixed Income Fund ( the "Fund") is part of The One
Group(R) (the "Trust"), which is an open-end management investment company that
offers shares in 39 separate funds and different classes of certain of the
funds. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts Business Trust on May 23,
1985. This Prospectus relates to Class A, Class B, and Fiduciary Class shares
of The One Group(R) Investor Fixed Income Fund. Each class of shares provides
for variations in distribution costs, voting rights, dividends and per share
net asset value pursuant to a multiple class plan (the "Multiple Class Plan")
adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Trust. Except for these differences
between classes, each share of the Fund represents an undivided, proportionate
interest in the Fund. The Fund is a non-diversified mutual fund because it
invests in the securities of a limited number of Underlying Funds. However, the
Underlying Funds are diversified investment companies. The Information
regarding the Trust's other funds and their classes is contained in separate
prospectuses which may be obtained from the Trust's Distributor, The One
Group(R) Services Company, 3435 Stelzer Road, Columbus, OH 43219, or by calling
1-800-480-4111.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
The Fund seeks current income with liquidity and stability of principal by
investing primarily in a diversified group of One Group mutual funds which
invest primarily in fixed income securities.
The investment objective of the Fund is fundamental and may not be changed
without a vote of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding shares
(as defined in the Statement of Additional Information).
There is no assurance that the Fund will meet its investment objective.

<PAGE> 253
INVESTMENT POLICIES OF THE FUND
The investment policies of the Fund may be changed without an affirmative vote
of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding shares unless a policy
is expressly deemed to be fundamental. Shareholders will be notified of any
material change in the Fund's investment policies.
Permissible Investments
The Fund will invest 90 to 100% of its assets in five Underlying Funds of The
One Group(R)which invest primarily in fixed income securities, and up to 10% of
its assets in one money market fund of The One Group. The Fund will invest its
assets in the Underlying Funds, within the ranges indicated below.

</TABLE>
The allocation of the Fund's assets among the Underlying Funds will be made by
the Adviser under the supervision of the Trust's Board of Trustees, within the
percentage ranges set forth in the table a ove.
The Fund and the Underlying Funds are permitted for temporary defensive
purposes to invest up to 100% of their assets in short-term fixed income
securities. Such securities include obligations of the U.S. government and its
agencies and instrumentalities; commercial paper, bank certificates of deposit,
repurchase agreements, bankers acceptance, variable amount master demand notes
and bank money market deposit accounts. The Fund and the Underlying Funds may
also hold cash for liquidity purposes.
To the extent the Fund or the Underlying Funds are engaged in a temporary
defensive position, they will not be pursuing their investment objective.
DESCRIPTION OF THE UNDERLYING FUNDS
The following is a brief description of the principal investment policies of
the Underlying Funds. Additional investment practices are described in
"Investment Policies of the Underlying Funds," the Statement of Additional
Information and the prospectus for each of the Underlying Funds.
The One Group(R) Prime Money Market Fund
The One Group(R) Prime Money Market Fund seeks current income with liquidity
and stability of principal. The fund intends to comply with the regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to money market funds using
the amortized cost method for calculating net asset value. These regulations
impose certain quality, maturity and diversification restraints on investments
by the fund. Under these regulations, the fund will invest only in U.S.
dollar-denominated securities, will maintain an average maturity on a
dollar-weighted basis of 90 days or less, and will acquire only "eligible
securities" that present minimal credit risks and have a maturity of 397 days
or less.
The One Group(R) Limited Volatility Bond Fund
The One Group(R) Limited Volatility Bond Fund seeks current income consistent
with preservation of capital through investment in high and medium-grade
fixed-income securities. The fund will normally invest at least 80% of total
assets in debt securities of all types with short to intermediate maturities.
Under normal market conditions, it is anticipated that the fund's average
weighted maturity will range between one and five years. At least 65% of the
fund's total assets will consist of bonds rated in one of the three highest
rating categories by at least one nationally recognized statistical rating
organization ("NRSRO") at the time of investment, or, if unrated, determined by
the Adviser to be of comparable quality. In addition , at least 65% of total
assets will consist of obligations issued by the U.S. government or its
agencies and instrumentalities, some of which may be subject to repurchase
agreements. The fund may also purchase taxable or tax-exempt municipal
securities. Up to 20% of the fund's total assets may be invested in preferred
stocks.
6
<PAGE> 254
The One Group(R) Intermediate Bond Fund
The One Group(R) Intermediate Bond Fund seeks current income consistent with
the preservation of capital through investments in high and medium-grade
fixed-income securities with intermediate maturities. The fund will normally
invest at least 80% of total assets in debt securities of all types. Under
normal market conditions, it is anticipated that the fund's average weighted
maturity will range between three and ten years. At least 65% of the fund's
total assets will consist of bonds rated in one of the three highest rating
categories by at least one NRSRO at the time of investment, or, if unrated,
determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. However, the Adviser
reserves the right to invest in more speculative debt securities if they
present attractive opportunities and are rated in the fourth highest rating
category by at least one NRSRO at the time of investment or, if unrated,
determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. In addition, at least
50% of total assets will consist of obligations issued by the U.S. government
or its agencies and instrumentalities, some of which may be subject to
repurchase agreements. The fund may also purchase taxable or tax-exempt
municipal securities. Up to 20% of the fund's total assets may be invested in
preferred stocks.
The One Group(R) Income Bond Fund
The One Group(R) Income Bond Fund seeks current income by investing in a
portfolio of high and medium-grade fixed-income securities. The fund will
normally invest at least 80% of total assets in debt securities of all types.
Under normal market conditions, it is anticipated that the fund's average
weighted maturity will range between five and fifteen years. At least 65% of
the fund's total assets will consist of bonds rated in one of the three highest
rating categories by at least one NRSRO at the time of investment, or, if
unrated, determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. However, the
Adviser reserves the right to invest in more speculative debt securities if
they present attractive opportunities and are rated in the fourth highest
rating category by at least one NRSRO at the time of investment or, if unrated,
determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. The fund may also
purchase taxable or tax-exempt municipal securities. Up to 20% of the fund's
total assets may be invested in preferred stocks.
The One Group(R) Government Bond Fund
The One Group(R) Government Bond Fund seeks a high level of current income with
liquidity and safety of principal. The fund seeks to achieve its objective
principally through investment in securities issued by the U.S. government and
its agencies and instrumentalities. At least 65% of the total assets of the
fund will be invested in obligations guaranteed as to principal and interest by
the U.S. government or its agencies and instrumentalities, some of which may be
subject to repurchase agreements, and other securities representing an interest
in or collateralized by mortgages that are issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
government, its agencies or instrumentalities. The balance of the fund's assets
may be invested in debt securities and taxable or tax-exempt municipal
securities. The average weighted remaining maturity of the fund is expected to
be between three and fifteen years.
The One Group(R) Ultra Short-Term Income Fund
The One Group(R) Ultra Short-Term Income Fund seeks a high level of current
income consistent with low volatility of principal by investing in a
diversified portfolio of short-term investment grade securities. The fund will
normally invest at least 80% of its total assets in debt securities of all
types, including money market instruments. In addition, up to 20% of the fund's
total assets may be invested in other securities, including preferred stock.
The fund will invest in adjustable rate mortgage pass-through securities and
other securities representing an interest in or collateralized by mortgages
with periodic interest rate resets, some of which may be subject to repurchase
agreements. These securities often are issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
government, its agencies or instrumentalities. However, the fund also may
purchase mortgage-backed securities that are issued by non-governmental
entities. Such securities may or may not have private insurer guarantees as to
timely payments. The fund also may purchase mortgage and interest rate swaps
and interest rate floors and caps. The fund also may employ other investment
techniques to enhance returns, such as loans of fund securities, mortgage
dollar rolls, repurchase agreements, options contracts and reverse repurchase
agreements.
The Fund will maintain a maximum duration approximately two years. Under normal
interest rate conditions, the Fund's actual duration is expected to be in a
range of approximately six months to one year.
RISK FACTORS
The investments of the Fund are concentrated in the Underlying Funds, so the
Fund's investment performance is directly related to the performance of the
Underlying Funds. In addition, as a matter of fundamental policy, the Fund must
allocate its investments among the Underlying Funds within certain ranges. As a
result, the Fund does not have the same flexibility to invest as a mutual fund
without such constraints.
The Fund may invest in Underlying Funds which invest in medium or lower grade
bonds. If these bonds are downgraded, the Adviser will consider whether to
increase or decrease the Fund's investment in the affected Underlying Fund.
Further, the Fund may invest
7
<PAGE> 255
in Underlying Funds which concentrate their assets in certain industries. Under
certain circumstances, this could result in the Fund being concentrated in
those industries. If this were to occur, the Adviser would consider whether to
maintain or change the Fund's investments in such Underlying Funds.
Special Risks of Investing in Fixed-Income Funds
The market value of a fund's fixed-income investments will change in response
to interest rate changes and other factors. During periods of falling interest
rates, the values of outstanding fixed-income securities generally rise.
Conversely, during periods of rising interest rates, the values of such
securities generally decline. Moreover, while securities with longer maturities
tend to produce higher yields, the prices of longer maturity securities are
also subject to greater market fluctuations as a result of changes in interest
rates. Changes by recognized agencies in the rating of any fixed-income
security and in the ability of an issuer to make payments of interest and
principal also affect the value of these investments. Except under condition of
default, changes in the value of fixed-income securities will not affect cash
income derived from these securities but will affect the funds' net asset
value.
Special Risks of Foreign Securities
Investments in securities of foreign issuers involve risks that are different
from investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These risks may include future
unfavorable political and economic developments, possible withholding taxes,
seizure of foreign deposits, currency controls, higher transaction costs, and
delayed settlements of transactions. Securities of some foreign companies are
less liquid, and their prices more volatile, than securities of comparable U.S.
companies. Additionally, there may be less public information available about
foreign issuers. Finally, since the funds may invest in securities denominated
in foreign currencies, changes in exchange rates may affect the value of
investments in the funds.
Special Risks of Small Capitalization Companies
Smaller, less seasoned companies may be subject to greater business risk than
larger, established companies. They may be more vulnerable to changes in
economic conditions, specific industry conditions, market fluctuations and
other factors affecting the profitability of companies. Therefore, the stock
price of smaller capitalization companies may be subject to greater price
fluctuations than that of larger, established companies. Due to these and other
risk factors, the price movement of the securities held by the funds may be
volatile and the net asset value of shares of the funds may fluctuate.
Special Risks of Mortgage Related Securities
Some of the funds invest in mortgage-related securities, such as
mortgage-backed securities, adjustable rate mortgage loans ("ARMs"), fixed rate
mortgage loans, and mortgage dollar rolls. The investment characteristics of
mortgage-related securities differ from traditional debt securities. These
differences can result in significantly greater price and yield volatility than
is the case with traditional fixed-income securities. The major differences
typically include more frequent interest and principal payments, usually
monthly, the adjustability of interest rates, and the possibility that
prepayments of principal may be made at any time. Prepayment rates are
influenced by changes in current interest rates and a variety of economic,
geographic, social, and other factors. During periods of declining interest
rates, prepayment rates can be expected to accelerate. Under certain interest
rate and prepayment rate scenarios, a fund may fail to recoup fully its
investment in mortgage-related securities notwithstanding a direct or indirect
governmental or agency guarantee. The funds intend to use hedging techniques to
control this risk. In general, changes in the rate of prepayments on a
mortgage-related security will change that security's market value and its
yield to maturity. When interest rates fall, high prepayments could force a
fund to reinvest principal at a time when investment opportunities are not
attractive. Thus, mortgage-related securities may not be an effective means for
a fund to lock in long-term interest rates. Conversely, during periods when
interest rates rise, slow prepayments could cause the average life of the
security to lengthen and the value to decline more than anticipated.
HOW TO DO BUSINESS WITH
THE ONE GROUP(R)
HOW TO INVEST IN THE ONE GROUP(R)
Shares of the Fund are sold on a continuous basis and may be purchased directly
from the Trust's Distributor, The One Group(R) Services Company, by mail, by
telephone, or by wire. Shares may also be purchased through a financial
institution, such as a bank, savings and loan association or insurance company
(each a "Shareholder Servicing Agent"), that has established a Shareholder
servicing agreement with the Distributor, or through a broker-dealer that has
established a dealer agreement with the Distributor.
8
<PAGE> 256
Purchases and redemptions of shares of the Fund may be made on any day that the
New York Stock Exchange is open for trading ("Business Days"). The minimum
initial and subsequent investments in the Fund are $1,000 and $100 respectively
($100 and $25, respectively, for employees of BANC ONE CORPORATION and its
affiliates). Initial and subsequent investment minimums may be waived at the
Distributor's discretion. Investors may purchase up to a maximum of $250,000 of
Class B shares per individual purchase order.
Class A shares are offered to IRA account participants and other long-term
investors. Class B shares are offered to investors in certain retirement plans
such as 401(k) and similar qualified plans. Fiduciary Class shares are offered
to institutional investors, including affiliates of BANC ONE CORPORATION and
any bank, depository institution, insurance company, pension plan or other
organization authorized to act in fiduciary, advisory, agency, custodial or
similar capacities (each an "Authorized Financial Organization"). For
additional details regarding eligibility, call the Distributor at
1-800-480-4111.
BY MAIL
Investors may purchase Class A and Class B shares of the Fund by completing and
signing an Account Application Form and mailing it, along with a check (or
other negotiable bank instrument or money order) payable to "The One Group(R),"
to State Street Bank and Trust Company (the Trust's Transfer Agent and
Custodian), P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500. Subsequent purchases of
shares may be made at any time by mailing a check to the Transfer Agent.
Account Application Forms are available through the Distributor by calling
1-800-480-4111.
Purchases of Fiduciary Class shares, and Class B shares that are being offered
to investors in certain retirement plans such as 401(k) and similar plans,
other than Individual Retirement Accounts, are made by an institutional
investor and/or other intermediary on behalf of an investor (each also a
"Shareholder Servicing Agent"). The Shareholder Servicing Agent may require an
investor to complete forms in addition to the Account Application Form and to
follow procedures established by the Shareholder Servicing Agent. Such
Shareholders should contact their Shareholder Servicing Agents regarding
purchases, exchanges and redemptions of shares. See "Additional Information
Regarding Purchases."
BY TELEPHONE OR BY WIRE
Once an Account Application Form has been received, Shareholders are eligible
to make purchases by telephone or wire (if that option has been selected by a
Shareholder) by calling the Transfer Agent at 1-800-480-4111 or the Shareholder
Servicing Agents, if applicable.
Shareholders may revoke their automatic eligibility to make purchases and/or
redemptions by telephone or by wire, by sending a letter so stating to the
Transfer Agent, State Street Bank and Trust Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA
02266-8500.
SYSTEMATIC INVESTMENT PLAN
Class A and Class B investors may make automatic monthly investments in the
Fund from their bank, savings and loan or other depository institution
accounts. The minimum initial and subsequent investments must be $25 under the
Systematic Investment Plan, which minimum may be waived at the discretion of
the Distributor. The Trust pays the costs associated with these transfers, but
reserves the right, upon thirty days' written notice, to impose reasonable
charges for this service. A depository institution may impose a charge for
debiting an investor's account which would reduce the investor's return from an
investment in the Fund.
FUND-DIRECT IRA
The Trust offers a tax-advantaged retirement plan for which the Fund may be an
appropriate investment. The Trust's retirement plan allows participants to
defer taxes while helping them build their retirement savings.
The One Group(R)Fund-Direct IRA is a retirement plan with a wide choice of
investments offering people with earned income the opportunity to compound
earnings on a tax-deferred basis. An IRA Adoption Agreement may be obtained by
calling the Distributor at 1-800-480-4111.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING PURCHASES
A purchase order will be effective as of the day received by the Distributor if
the Distributor receives the order before 4:00 p.m., eastern time. However, an
order may be cancelled if the Transfer Agent does not receive Federal funds
before close of business on the next Business Day for Fiduciary Class shares,
and before the close of business on the third Business Day for Class A and
Class B shares, and the investor could be liable for any fees or expenses
incurred by the Trust. Federal funds are monies credited to a
9
<PAGE> 257
bank's account with a Federal Reserve Bank. The purchase price of shares of the
Fund is the net asset value next determined after a purchase order is effected
plus any applicable sales charge (the "offering price"). The net asset value
per share of the Fund is determined by dividing the total market value of the
Fund's investments and other assets allocable to a class, less any liabilities
allocable to that class, by the total number of outstanding shares of such
class. Net asset value per share is determined daily as of 4:00 p.m., eastern
time, on each Business Day. For a further discussion of the calculation of net
asset value, see the Statement of Additional Information. Shares may also be
issued in transactions involving the acquisition by the Fund of securities held
by collective investment funds sponsored and administered by affiliates of the
Adviser. Purchases will be made in full and fractional shares of the Fund
calculated to three decimal places. Although the methodology and procedures are
identical, the net asset value per share of classes within the Fund may differ
because the distribution expenses charged to Class A shares and Class B shares
are not charged to Fiduciary Class shares.
The Trust reserves the right to reject a purchase order when the Distributor
determines that it is not in the best interest of the Trust and/or its
Shareholders to accept such order. Except as provided below, neither the
Trust's Transfer Agent nor the Trust will be responsible for any loss,
liability, cost or expense for acting upon telephone or wire instructions, and
the investor will bear all risk of loss. The Trust will employ reasonable
procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine,
including requiring a form of personal identification prior to acting upon
instructions received by telephone and recording telephone instructions. If
such procedures are not employed, the Trust may be liable for any losses due to
unauthorized or fraudulent instructions.
Fiduciary Class shares offered to institutional investors and to investors in
certain retirement plans, Class A shares offered to IRA account participants
and Class B shares that are offered to investors in certain retirement plans
such as 401(k) and similar plans, other than Individual Retirement Accounts,
will normally be held in the name of the Shareholder Servicing Agent effecting
the purchase on the Shareholder's behalf, and it is the Shareholder Servicing
Agent's responsibility to transmit purchase orders to the Distributor. A
Shareholder Servicing Agent may impose an earlier cut-off time for receipt of
purchase orders directed through it to allow for processing and transmittal of
these orders to the Distributor for effectiveness the same day. The Shareholder
should contact his or her Shareholder Servicing Agent for information as to the
Shareholder Servicing Agent's procedures for transmitting purchase, exchange or
redemption orders to the Trust. A Shareholder who desires to transfer the
registration of shares beneficially owned by him or her, but held of record by
a Shareholder Servicing Agent, should contact the Shareholder Servicing Agent
to accomplish such change. Other Shareholders who desire to transfer the
registration of their shares should contact the Transfer Agent.
No certificates representing shares of the Fund will be issued. In
communications to Shareholders, the Fund will not duplicate mailings of Fund
material to Shareholders who reside at the same address.
SALES CHARGE
The following table shows the initial sales charge on Class A shares to a
"single purchaser" (defined below) together with the sales charge reallowed to
financial institutions and intermediaries (the "commission"):

</TABLE>
The commissions shown in the table apply to sales through financial
institutions and intermediaries. Under certain circumstances, the Distributor
will use its own funds to compensate financial institutions and intermediaries
in amounts that are additional to the commissions shown above. The maximum cash
compensation payable by the Distributor as a sales charge is 3.00% of the
offering price (including the commission shown above and additional cash
compensation described below). In addition, the Distributor will, from time to
time and at its own expense, provide promotional incentives to financial
institutions and intermediaries, whose registered representatives have sold or
are expected to sell significant amounts of the shares of the Fund in the form
of payment for travel expenses, including lodging, incurred in connection with
trips taken by qualifying registered representatives to places within or
outside the United States, and additional compensation in an amount up to 1.00%
of the offering price of Class A shares of the Fund
10
<PAGE> 258
for sales of $1 million to $5 million, and 0.50% for sales over $5 million. A
Shareholder who purchases $1 million or more of Class A shares and is not
assessed a sales charge at the time of purchase, will be assessed a sales
charge equivalent to 1% of the purchase price if such Shareholder redeems any
or all of the Class A shares prior to the first anniversary of purchase. Under
certain circumstances, commissions up to the amount of the entire sales charge
will be reallowed to financial institutions and intermediaries, which might
then be deemed to be "underwriters" under the Securities Act of 1933.
RIGHT OF ACCUMULATION
In calculating the sales charge rates applicable to current purchases of Class
A shares, a "single purchaser" is entitled to cumulate current purchases with
the current value at the offering price of previously purchased Class A and
Class B shares of the Fund and other eligible funds of the Trust, other than
the Trust's money market funds, that are sold subject to a comparable sales
charge.
The term "single purchaser" refers to (i) an individual, (ii) an individual and
spouse purchasing shares of the Fund for their own account or for trust or
custodial accounts for their minor children, or (iii) a fiduciary purchasing
for any one trust, estate or fiduciary account, including employee benefit
plans created under Sections 401 or 457 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code"), and including related plans of the same employer. To
be entitled to a reduced sales charge based upon shares already owned, the
investor must ask the Distributor for such reduction at the time of purchase
and provide the account number(s) of the investor, the investor and spouse, and
their minor children, and give the age of such children. The Fund may amend or
terminate this right of accumulation at any time as to subsequent purchases.
LETTER OF INTENT
By initially investing at least $2,000 in Class A shares of one or more funds
that impose a comparable sales charge over the next 13 months, the sales charge
may be reduced by completing the Letter of Intent section of the Account
Application Form. The Letter of Intent includes a provision for a sales charge
adjustment depending on the amount actually purchased within the 13-month
period. In addition, pursuant to a Letter of Intent, the Custodian will hold in
escrow the difference between the sales charge applicable to the amount
initially purchased and the sales charge paid at the time of investment, which
is based on the amount covered by the Letter of Intent.
For example, assume an investor signs a Letter of Intent to purchase $250,000
in Class A shares of one (or more) of the funds of the Trust that imposes a
comparable sales charge and, at the time of signing the Letter of Intent,
purchases $100,000 of Class A shares of one of these funds. The investor would
pay an initial sales charge of 2.00% (the sales charge applicable to purchases
of $250,000) and .50% of the investment (representing the difference between
the 2.50% sales charge applicable to purchases of $100,000 and the 2.00% sales
charge already paid) would be held in escrow until the investor has purchased
the remaining $150,000 or more in Class A shares under the investor's Letter of
Intent.
The amount held in escrow will be applied to the investor's account at the end
of the 13-month period unless the amount specified in the Letter of Intent is
not purchased. In order to qualify for a Letter of Intent, the investor will be
required to make a minimum purchase of at least $2,000.
The Letter of Intent will not obligate the investor to purchase Class A shares,
but if he or she does, each purchase during the period will be at the sales
charge applicable to the total amount intended to be purchased. The Letter of
Intent may be dated as of a prior date to include any purchases made within the
past 90 days.
OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES
No sales charge is imposed on Class A shares of the Fund: (i) issued through
reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions; (ii) acquired
through the exercise of exchange privileges where a comparable sales charge has
been paid for exchanged shares; (iii) purchased by officers, directors or
trustees, retirees and employees (and their spouses and immediate family
members) of the Trust, of BANC ONE CORPORATION and its subsidiaries and
affiliates, of the Distributor and its subsidiaries and affiliates, or of an
investment sub-adviser of a fund of the Trust and such sub-adviser's
subsidiaries and affiliates; (iv) sold to affiliates of BANC ONE CORPORATION
and certain accounts (other than Individual Retirement Accounts) for which
Authorized Financial Organizations act in fiduciary, advisory, agency,
custodial or similar capacities, or purchased by investment advisers, financial
planners or other intermediaries who have a dealer arrangement with the
Distributor, who place trades for their own accounts or for the accounts of
their clients and who charge a management, consulting or other fee for their
services, as well as clients of such investment advisers, financial planners or
other intermediaries who place trades for their own accounts if the accounts
are linked to the master account of such investment adviser, financial planner
or other intermediary; (v) purchased with proceeds from the recent redemption
of Fiduciary Class shares of a fund of the Trust or acquired in an exchange of
Fiduciary Class shares of a fund for Class A shares of the same fund; (vi)
purchased with proceeds from the recent redemption of shares of a mutual fund
(other than a fund of the Trust)
11
<PAGE> 259
for which a sales charge was paid; (vii) purchased in an Individual Retirement
Account with the proceeds of a distribution from an employee benefit plan,
provided that, at the time of distribution, the employee benefit plan had plan
assets invested in a fund of the Trust; (viii) purchased with Trust assets;
(ix) purchased in accounts as to which a bank or broker-dealer charges an asset
allocation fee, provided the bank or broker-dealer has an agreement with the
Distributor; (x) directly purchased with the proceeds of a distribution on a
bond for which a BANC ONE CORPORATION affiliate bank or trust company is the
Trustee or Paying Agent; or (xi) purchased in connection with plans of
reorganization of the Fund, such as mergers, asset acquisitions and exchange
offers to which the Fund is a party.
An investor relying upon any of the categories of waivers of the sales charge
must qualify for such waiver in advance of the purchase with the Distributor or
the financial institution or intermediary through which shares are purchased by
the investor.
The waiver of the sales charge under circumstances (v), (vi), and (vii) above
applies only if the purchase is made within 60 days of the redemption or
distribution and if conditions imposed by the Distributor are met. The waiver
policy with respect to the purchase of shares through the use of proceeds from
a recent redemption or distribution as described in clauses (v), (vi), and
(vii) above will not be continued indefinitely and may be discontinued at any
time without notice. Investors should call the Distributor at 1-800-480-4111 to
determine whether they are eligible to purchase shares without paying a sales
charge through the use of proceeds from a recent redemption or distribution as
described above, and to confirm continued availability of these waiver policies
prior to initiating the procedures described in clauses (v), (vi), and (vii).
ALTERNATIVE SALES ARRANGEMENTS
CLASS B SHARES
Class B shares are not subject to a sales charge when they are purchased, but
are subject to a sales charge (the "Contingent Deferred Sales Charge") if a
Shareholder redeems them prior to the sixth anniversary of purchase. When a
Shareholder purchases Class B shares, the full purchase amount is invested
directly in the Fund. Class B shares of the Fund are subject to an ongoing
distribution and Shareholder service fee at an annual rate of 1.00% of the
Fund's average daily net assets as provided in the Class B Plan (described
below under "The Distributor"). The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to
reduce the amount of this fee to .90% of the Fund's average daily net assets
attributable to the Class B shares for the indefinite future. This ongoing fee
will cause Class B shares to have a higher expense ratio and to pay lower
dividends than Class A shares. Class B shares convert automatically to Class A
shares after eight years, commencing from the end of the calendar month in
which the purchase order was accepted under the circumstances and subject to
the qualifications described in this Prospectus.
Proceeds from the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the distribution and
Shareholder service fees under the Class B Plan are payable to the Distributor
and financial intermediaries to defray the expenses of advance brokerage
commissions and expenses related to providing distribution-related and
Shareholder services to the Fund in connection with the sale of the Class B
shares, such as the payment of compensation to dealers and agents for selling
Class B shares. A dealer reallowance of 4.00% of the original purchase price of
the Class B shares will be paid to financial institutions and intermediaries.
CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE
If the Shareholder redeems Class B shares prior to the sixth anniversary of
purchase, the Shareholder will pay a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge at the
rates set forth below. The Contingent Deferred Sales Charge is assessed on an
amount equal to the lesser of the then-current market value or the cost of the
shares being redeemed. Accordingly, no sales charge is imposed on increases in
net asset value above the initial purchase price. In addition, no charge is
assessed on shares derived from reinvestment of dividends or capital gain
distributions.
The amount of the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge, if any, varies depending on
the number of years from the time of payment for the purchase of Class B shares
until the time of redemption of such shares. Solely for purposes of determining
the number of years from the time of any payment for the purchase of shares,
all payments during a month are aggregated and deemed to have been made on the
first day of the month.
<TABLE>

</TABLE>
In determining whether a particular redemption is subject to a Contingent
Deferred Sales Charge, it is assumed that the redemption is first of any Class
A shares in the Shareholder's Fund account (unless the Shareholder elects to
have Class B shares redeemed first) or shares representing capital
appreciation, next of shares acquired pursuant to reinvestment of dividends and
capital gain distributions, and finally of other shares held by the Shareholder
for the longest period of time. This method should result in the lowest
possible sales charge.
To provide an example, assume you purchased 100 shares at $10 per share (a
total cost of $1,000) and prior to the second anniversary after purchase, the
net asset value per share is $12 and during such time you have acquired 10
additional shares through dividends paid in shares. If you then make your first
redemption of 50 shares (proceeds of $600), 10 shares will not be subject to
charge because you received them as dividends. With respect to the remaining 40
shares, the charge is applied only to the original cost of $10 per share and
not to the increase in net asset value of $2 per share. Therefore, $400 of the
$600 redemption proceeds is subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge at a
rate of 4.00% (the applicable rate prior to the second anniversary after
purchase).
The Contingent Deferred Sales Charge is waived on redemption of shares: (i) for
distributions that are made under a Systematic Withdrawal Plan of the Trust and
that are limited to no more than 10% of the account value annually, determined
in the first year as of the date the redemption request is received by the
Transfer Agent, and in subsequent years, as of the most recent anniversary of
that date; (ii) following the death or disability (as defined in the Code) of a
Shareholder or a participant or beneficiary of a qualifying retirement plan if
redemption is made within one year of such death or disability; or (iii) to the
extent that the redemption represents a minimum required distribution from an
Individual Retirement Account or other qualifying retirement plan to a
Shareholder who has attained the age of 70 1/2. A Shareholder or his or her
representative should contact the Transfer Agent to determine whether a
retirement plan qualifies for a waiver and must notify the Transfer Agent prior
to the time of redemption if such circumstances exist and the Shareholder is
eligible for this waiver. In addition, the following circumstances are not
deemed to result in a "redemption" of Class B shares for purposes of the
assessment of a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge, which is therefore waived:
(i) plans of reorganization of the Fund, such as mergers, asset acquisitions
and exchange offers to which the Fund is a party; or (ii) exchanges for Class B
shares of other funds of the Trust as described under "Exchanges."
CONVERSION FEATURE
Class B shares include all shares purchased pursuant to the Contingent Deferred
Sales Charge which have been outstanding for less than the period ending eight
years after the end of the month in which the shares were purchased. At the end
of this period, Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares and
will be subject to the lower distribution and Shareholder service fees charged
to Class A shares. Such conversion will be on the basis of the relative net
asset values of the two classes, without the imposition of any sales charge,
fee or other charge. The conversion is not a taxable event to a Shareholder.
For purposes of conversion to Class A shares, shares received as dividends and
other distributions paid on Class B shares in a Shareholder's Fund account will
be considered to be held in a separate sub-account. Each time any Class B
shares in a Shareholder's Fund account (other than those in the sub-account)
convert to Class A shares, a pro-rata portion of the Class B shares in the
sub-account will also convert to Class A shares.
If a Shareholder effects one or more exchanges among Class B shares of the
funds of the Trust during the eight-year period, the Trust will aggregate the
holding periods for the shares of each fund of the Trust for purposes of
calculating that eight-year period. Because the per share net asset value of
the Class A shares may be higher than that of the Class B shares at the time of
conversion, a Shareholder may receive fewer Class A shares than the number of
Class B shares converted, although the dollar value will be the same.
EXCHANGES
CLASS A AND FIDUCIARY CLASS
Fiduciary Class Shareholders of the Fund may exchange their shares for Class A
shares of the Fund or for Class A shares or Fiduciary Class shares of another
fund of the Trust.
13
<PAGE> 261
Class A Shareholders may exchange their shares for Fiduciary Class shares of
the Fund or for Fiduciary Class shares or Class A shares of another fund of the
Trust, if the Shareholder is eligible to purchase such shares.
The exchange privilege may be exercised only in those states where the shares
of the Fund or such other fund of the Trust may be legally sold. All exchanges
discussed herein are made at the net asset value of the exchanged shares,
except as provided below. The Trust does not impose a charge for processing
exchanges of shares. If a Shareholder seeks to exchange Class A shares of a
fund that does not impose a sales charge for Class A shares of a fund that does
or the fund being exchanged into has a higher sales charge, the Shareholder
will be required to pay a sales charge in the amount equal to the difference
between the sales charge applicable to the fund into which the shares are being
exchanged and any sales charges previously paid for the exchanged shares,
including any sales charges incurred on any earlier exchanges of the shares
(unless such sales charge is otherwise waived, as provided in "Other
Circumstances"). The exchange of Fiduciary Class shares for Class A shares also
will require payment of the sales charge unless the sales charge is waived, as
provided in "Other Circumstances."
CLASS B
Class B Shareholders of the Fund may exchange their shares for Class B shares
of any other fund of the Trust on the basis of the net asset value of the
exchanged Class B shares, without the payment of any Contingent Deferred Sales
Charge that might otherwise be due upon redemption of the outstanding Class B
shares. The newly acquired Class B shares will be subject to the higher
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge of either the fund from which the shares were
exchanged or the fund into which the shares were exchanged. With respect to
outstanding Class B shares as to which previous exchanges have taken place,
"higher Contingent Deferred Sales Charge" shall mean the higher of the
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge applicable to either the fund the shares are
exchanging into or any other fund from which the shares previously have been
exchanged. For purposes of computing the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge that
may be payable upon a disposition of the newly acquired Class B shares, the
holding period for outstanding Class B shares of the fund from which the
exchange was made is "tacked" to the holding period of the newly acquired Class
B shares. For purposes of calculating the holding period applicable to the
newly acquired Class B shares, the newly acquired Class B shares shall be
deemed to have been issued on the date of receipt of the Shareholder's order to
purchase the outstanding Class B shares of the fund from which the initial
exchange was made.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING EXCHANGES
In the case of shares held of record by a Shareholder Servicing Agent but
beneficially owned by a Shareholder, to exchange such shares the Shareholder
should contact the Shareholder Servicing Agent, who will contact the Transfer
Agent and effect the exchange on behalf of the Shareholder. If an exchange
request in good order is received by the Transfer Agent by 4:00 p.m., eastern
time, on any Business Day, the exchange usually will occur on that day. Any
Shareholder who wishes to make an exchange must receive a current prospectus of
the fund of the Trust in which he or she wishes to invest before the exchange
will be effected.
The Trust reserves the right to change the terms or conditions of the exchange
privilege discussed herein upon sixty days' written notice. An exchange between
classes of shares of the same fund is not considered a taxable event; however,
an exchange between funds of the Trust is considered a sale of shares and
usually results in a capital gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes.
Shareholders should consult their tax advisers for a more complete explanation
of the Federal income tax consequences of an exchange of shares of the Fund.
A more detailed description of the above is set forth in the Statement of
Additional Information.
REDEMPTIONS
Shareholders may redeem their shares without charge (except Class B shares, as
provided above) on any Business Day; shares may ordinarily be redeemed by mail,
by telephone or by wire. All redemption orders are effected at the net asset
value per share next determined for Class A and Fiduciary Class shares, and at
net asset value per share next determined reduced by any applicable Contingent
Deferred Sales Charge for Class B shares, after receipt of a valid request for
redemption. Payment to Shareholders for shares redeemed will be made within
seven days after receipt by the Transfer Agent of the request for redemption.
BY MAIL
A written request for redemption must be received by the Transfer Agent in
order to constitute a valid request for redemption. All written redemption
requests should be sent to The One Group(R), c/o State Street Bank and Trust
Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500, or the Shareholder Servicing
Agent, if applicable. The Transfer Agent may require that the signature on the
written request be guaranteed by a commercial bank, a member firm of a domestic
stock exchange, or by a member of the Securities Transfer Association Medallion
Program or the Stock Exchange Medallion Program.
14
<PAGE> 262
The signature guarantee requirement will be waived if all of the following
conditions apply: (i) the redemption is for $5,000 worth of shares or less;
(ii) the redemption check is payable to the Shareholder(s) of record; and (iii)
the redemption check is mailed to the Shareholder(s) at the address of record.
The Shareholder may also have the proceeds mailed to a commercial bank account
previously designated on the Account Application Form or by written instruction
to the Transfer Agent or the Shareholder Servicing Agent, if applicable. There
is no charge for having redemption requests mailed to a designated bank
account.
BY TELEPHONE OR BY WIRE
Shareholders may have the payment of redemption requests wired or mailed to a
domestic commercial bank account previously designated on the Account
Application Form. Wire redemption requests may be made by the Shareholder by
telephone to the Transfer Agent at 1-800-480-4111, provided that the
Shareholder has elected the telephone redemption privilege in writing to the
Distributor, or to the Shareholder Servicing Agent, if applicable. The Transfer
Agent may reduce the amount of a wire redemption payment by its then-current
wire redemption charge, which, as of the date of this Prospectus, is $7.00.
Neither the Trust nor the Transfer Agent will be responsible for the
authenticity of the redemption instructions received by telephone if it
reasonably believes those instructions to be genuine. The Trust and the
Transfer Agent will each employ reasonable procedures to confirm that telephone
instructions are genuine, and may be liable for losses resulting from
unauthorized or fraudulent telephone transactions if it does not employ those
procedures. Such procedures may include requesting personal identification
information or recording telephone conversations.
SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PLAN
Shareholders whose accounts have a value of at least $10,000 may elect to
receive, or may designate another person to receive, monthly, quarterly or
annual payments in a specified amount of not less than $100 each. There is no
charge for this service. Under the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, all dividends
and distributions must be reinvested in shares of the Fund. Purchases of
additional Class A or Class B shares while the Systematic Withdrawal Plan is in
effect are generally undesirable because a sales charge is incurred whenever
purchases are made.
Pursuant to the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, Class B Shareholders may elect to
receive, or may designate another person to receive, distributions provided the
distributions are limited to no more than 10% of their account value annually,
determined in the first year as of the date of redemption request is received
by the Transfer Agent, and in subsequent years, as of the most recent
anniversary of that date.
In addition, Shareholders who have attained the age of 70 1/2 may elect to
receive distributions, to the extent that the redemption represents a minimum
required distribution from an Individual Retirement Account or other qualifying
retirement plan.
If the amount of systematic withdrawal exceeds income accrued since the
previous withdrawal under the Systematic Withdrawal Plan, the principal balance
invested will be reduced and shares will be redeemed.
OTHER INFORMATION REGARDING REDEMPTIONS
At various times, the Fund may be requested to redeem shares for which it has
not yet received good payment. In such circumstances, the forwarding of
proceeds may be delayed for 15 or more days until payment has been collected
for the purchase of such shares. The Fund intends to pay cash for all shares
redeemed.
Due to the relatively high costs of handling small investments, the Fund
reserves the right to redeem, at net asset value, the shares of any Shareholder
if, because of redemptions of shares by or on behalf of the Shareholder, the
account of such Shareholder in the Fund has a value of less than $1,000, the
minimum initial purchase amount. Accordingly, an investor purchasing shares of
the Fund in only the minimum investment amount may be subject to such
involuntary redemption if he or she thereafter redeems any of these shares.
Before the Fund exercises its right to redeem such shares and to send the
proceeds to the Shareholder, the Shareholder will be given notice that the
value of the shares in his or her account is less than the minimum amount and
will be allowed 60 days to make an additional investment in the Fund in an
amount which will increase the value of the account to at least $1,000.
See the Statement of Additional Information for examples of when the Trust may
suspend the right of redemption or redeem shares involuntarily if it appears
appropriate to do so in light of the Trust's responsibilities under the
Investment Company Act of 1940.

FUND MANAGEMENT
THE ADVISER
The Trust and Banc One Investment Advisors Corporation (the "Adviser") have
entered into an investment advisory agreement (the "Advisory Agreement"). Under
the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser makes the investment decisions for the
assets of the Fund and continuously reviews, supervises and administers the
Fund's investment program. The Adviser discharges its responsibilities subject
to the supervision of, and policies established by, the Trustees of the Trust.
The Trust's shares are not deposits or obligations of, or endorsed or guaranteed
by BANC ONE CORPORATION or its bank or non-bank affiliates. The Trust's shares
are not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
("FDIC") or by any other governmental agency or government sponsored agency of
the Federal government or any state.
The Adviser is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of BANC ONE CORPORATION, a
bank holding company incorporated in the state of Ohio. BANC ONE CORPORATION
currently has affiliate banking organizations in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois,
Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Ohio, Oklahoma, Texas, Utah, West Virginia and
Wisconsin. In addition, BANC ONE CORPORATION has several affiliates that engage
in data processing, venture capital, investment and merchant banking, and other
diversified services including trust management, investment management,
brokerage, equipment leasing, mortgage banking, consumer finance and insurance.
On a consolidated basis, BANC ONE CORPORATION had assets of over $90.5 billion
as of December 31, 1995.
The Adviser represents a consolidation of the investment advisory staffs of a
number of bank affiliates of BANC ONE CORPORATION, which have considerable
experience in the management of open-end management investment company
portfolios, including The One Group(R) since 1985 (then known as "The Helmsman
Fund").
No single person is responsible for managing the assets of the Fund. Rather,
investment decisions for the Fund are made by committee.
The Adviser is entitled to a fee which is calculated daily and paid monthly,
at a rate of .05% of the average daily net assets of the Fund.
The Adviser also serves as investment adviser to each of the Underlying Funds.
As a shareholder of each of the Underlying Funds, the Fund will indirectly bear
its proportionate share of investment advisory fees paid by those funds. The
Underlying Funds pay the Adviser an advisory fee at the following rates:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
The One Group(R) Prime Money Market Fund .27%
The One Group(R) Limited Volatility Bond Fund .30%
The One Group(R) Intermediate Bond Fund .30%
The One Group(R) Income Bond Fund .40%
The One Group(R) Government Bond Fund .45%
The One Group(R) Ultra Short-Term Income Fund .40%
</TABLE>
THE DISTRIBUTOR
The One Group(R) Services Company (the "Distributor"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the BISYS Group, Inc., and the Trust are parties to a
distribution agreement (the "Distribution Agreement") under which shares of the
Fund are sold on a continuous basis.
Class A shares are subject to a distribution and Shareholder services plan (the
"Plan"). As provided in the Plan, the Trust will pay the Distributor a fee of
.35% of the average daily net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. Currently,
the Distributor has voluntarily agreed to limit payments under the Plan to .25%
of the average daily net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. Up to .25% of
the fees payable under the Plan may be used as compensation for Shareholder
services by the Distributor and/or financial institutions and intermediaries.
All such fees that may be paid under the Plan will be paid pursuant to Rule
12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Distributor may apply these
fees toward: (i) compensation for its services in connection with distribution
assistance or provision of Shareholder services; or (ii) payments to financial
institutions and intermediaries such as banks (including affiliates of the
Adviser), savings and loan associations, insurance companies, investment
counselors, broker-dealers, and the Distributor's affiliates and subsidiaries,
as compensation for services or reimbursement of expenses incurred in
connection with distribution assistance or provision of Shareholder services.
Class B shares are subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge if such shares
are redeemed prior to the sixth anniversary of purchase. Class B shares of the
Fund are subject to an ongoing distribution and Shareholder service fee as
provided in the Class B distribution and Shareholder services plan (the "Class
B Plan") at an annual rate of 1.00% of the Fund's average daily net assets,
16
<PAGE> 264
which includes Shareholder servicing fees of .25% of the Fund's average daily
net assets. Currently, the Distributor has voluntarily agreed to limit payments
under the Class B Plan to .90% of the average daily net assets of the Class B
shares of the Fund.
Proceeds from the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the distribution and the
Shareholder service fees under the Class B Plan are payable to the Distributor
and financial intermediaries to defray the expenses of advance brokerage
commissions and expenses related to providing distribution-related and
Shareholder services to the Fund in connection with the sale of Class B shares,
such as the payment of compensation to dealers and agents for selling Class B
shares. The combination of the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and the
distribution and Shareholder service fees facilitate the ability of the Fund to
sell the Class B shares without a sales charge being deducted at the time of
purchase.
The Plan and Class B Plan are characterized as compensation plans since the
distribution fees will be paid to the Distributor without regard to the
distribution or Shareholder service expenses incurred by the Distributor or the
amount of payments made to financial institutions and intermediaries. The Fund
also may execute brokerage or other agency transactions through an affiliate of
the Adviser or through the Distributor for which the affiliate or the
Distributor receives compensation. Pursuant to guidelines adopted by the Board
of Trustees of the Trust, any such compensation will be reasonable and fair
compared to compensation received by other brokers in connection with
comparable transactions.
Fiduciary Class shares of the Fund are offered without distribution fees to
institutional investors, including Authorized Financial Organizations. It is
possible that an institution may offer different classes of shares to its
customers and thus receive different compensation with respect to different
classes of shares. In addition, a financial institution that is the record
owner of shares for the account of its customers may impose separate fees for
account services to its customers.
THE ADMINISTRATOR
The One Group(R) Services Company, (the "Administrator"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the BISYS Group, Inc., and the Trust are parties to an
administration agreement relating to the Fund (the "Administration Agreement").
Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, the Administrator is
responsible for providing the Trust with administrative services (other than
investment advisory services), including regulatory reporting and all necessary
office space, equipment, personnel and facilities.
The Adviser also serves as Sub-Administrator to each fund of the Trust,
pursuant to an agreement between the Administrator and the Adviser. Pursuant to
this agreement, the Adviser performs many of the Administrator's duties, for
which the Adviser receives a fee paid by the Administrator.
The Administrator is entitled to a fee for administrative services, which is
calculated daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of .10% of the Fund's
average daily net assets on the first $500,000,000 in Fund assets, .075% of the
Fund's average daily net assets between $500,000,000 and $1 billion, and .05%
of the Fund's average daily net assets when Fund assets exceed $1 billion.
THE TRANSFER AGENT AND CUSTODIAN
State Street Bank and Trust Company, P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500 acts
as Transfer Agent and Custodian for the Trust, for which services it receives a
fee. The Custodian holds cash, securities and other assets of the Trust as
required by the Investment Company Act of 1940. Bank One Trust Company, N.A.
serves as Sub-Custodian in connection with the Trust's securities lending
activities, pursuant to an agreement between State Street Bank and Trust
Company. Bank One Trust Company receives a fee paid by the Trust.
COUNSEL AND INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
Ropes & Gray serves as counsel to the Trust. Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P. serves
as the independent accountants of the Trust.
OTHER INFORMATION
THE TRUST
The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts Business Trust under a Declaration
of Trust filed on May 23, 1985. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trust to
offer separate funds and different classes of each fund. All consideration
received by the Trust for shares of any fund and all assets of such fund belong
to that fund and would be subject to liabilities related thereto.
The Trust pays its expenses, including fees of its service providers, audit and
legal expenses, expenses of preparing prospectuses, proxy solicitation material
and reports to Shareholders, costs of custodial services and registering the
shares under Federal and state
17
<PAGE> 265
securities laws, pricing, insurance expenses, litigation and other
extraordinary expenses, brokerage costs, interest charges, taxes and
organizational expenses.
The Adviser and the Administrator of the Fund each bears all expenses incurred
in connection with the performance of their services as investment adviser and
administrator, respectively, other than the cost of securities (including
brokerage commissions, if any) purchased for the Fund.
As a general matter, as set forth in the Multiple Class Plan, expenses are
allocated to each class of shares of the Fund on the basis of the net asset
value of that class in relation to the net asset value of the Fund. At present,
the only expenses that are allocated to Class A and Class B shares, other than
in accordance with the relative net asset value of the class, are the
distribution and Shareholder services costs. See "Expense Summary." At present,
no expenses are allocated to Fiduciary Class shares as a class that are not
also borne by the other classes of shares of the Fund in proportion to the
relative net asset value of the shares of such classes.
The organizational expenses of the Fund have been capitalized and are being
amortized in the first five years of the Fund's operations. Such amortization
will reduce the amount of income available for payment as dividends.
TRUSTEES OF THE TRUST
The management and affairs of the Trust are supervised by the Trustees under
the laws governing business trusts in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The
Trustees have approved contracts under which, as described above, certain
companies provide essential management services to the Trust.
VOTING RIGHTS
As set forth in the Multiple Class Plan, each share held entitles the
Shareholder of record to one vote. Each fund of the Trust will vote separately
on matters relating solely to that fund. In addition, each class of a fund
shall have exclusive voting rights on any matter submitted to Shareholders that
relates solely to that class, and shall have separate voting rights on any
matter submitted to Shareholders in which the interests of one class differ
from the interests of any other class. However, all fund Shareholders will have
equal voting rights on matters that affect all fund Shareholders equally. As a
Massachusetts Business Trust, the Trust is not required to hold annual meetings
of Shareholders but approval will be sought for certain changes in the
operation of the Trust and for the election of Trustees under certain
circumstances. In addition, a Trustee may be elected or removed by the
remaining Trustees or by Shareholders at a special meeting called upon written
request of Shareholders owning at least 10% of the outstanding shares of the
Trust. In the event that such a meeting is requested, the Trust will provide
appropriate assistance and information to the Shareholders requesting the
meeting.
DIVIDENDS
Net investment income (exclusive of capital gains) is declared daily, and is
determined and distributed in the form of monthly dividends to Shareholders of
Record on the first Business Day of each month. Capital gains of the Fund, if
any, will be distributed at least annually.
To maintain a relatively even rate of distributions from the Fund rather than
having substantial fluctuations from period to period, the monthly
distributions level from the Fund may be fixed from time to time at rates
consistent with the Adviser's long-term earnings expectations.
Shareholders automatically receive all income dividends and capital gain
distributions in additional Class A, Class B or Fiduciary Class shares, as
applicable, at the net asset value next determined following the record date,
unless the Shareholder has elected to take such payment in cash. Such election,
or any revocation thereof, must be made in writing, at least 15 days prior to
distribution, to the Transfer Agent at P.O. Box 8500, Boston, MA 02266-8500,
and will become effective with respect to dividends and distributions having
record dates after its receipt by the Transfer Agent. Reinvested dividends and
distributions receive the same tax treatment as dividends and distributions
paid in cash.
Class B shares received as dividends and capital gains distributions at net
asset value next determined following the record date shall be held in a
separate Class B sub-account. Each time any Class B shares (other than those in
the sub-account) convert to Class A shares, a pro-rata portion of the Class B
shares in the sub-account will also convert to Class A shares. See "Conversion
Feature."
Dividends and distributions of the Fund are paid on a per-share basis. The
value of each share will be reduced by the amount of the payment. If shares are
purchased shortly before the record date for a dividend or the distribution of
capital gains, a Shareholder will
18
<PAGE> 266
pay the full price for the shares and receive some portion of the price back as
a taxable dividend or distribution even though such distribution would, in
effect, represent a return of the Shareholder's investment.
The amount of dividends payable on Fiduciary Class shares will be more than the
dividends payable on Class A and Class B shares because of the distribution
expenses charged to Class A and Class B shares.
SHAREHOLDER INQUIRIES
Shareholder inquiries should be directed to the Administrator, The One Group(R)
Services Company, 3435 Stelzer Road, Columbus, OH 43219.
REPORTING
The Trust issues unaudited financial information semiannually and audited
financial statements annually. The Trust furnishes proxy statements and other
reports to Shareholders of record.
OTHER INVESTMENT POLICIES
PORTFOLIO TURNOVER
Portfolio turnover may vary greatly from year to year as well as within a
particular year. It is estimated that the annual portfolio turnover rate will
not exceed 100%. Higher portfolio turnover rates will likely result in higher
transaction costs to the Fund and may result in additional tax consequences to
Fund Shareholders.
INVESTMENT LIMITATIONS
The investment objective and the following investment limitations are
fundamental policies of the Fund. Fundamental policies cannot be changed
without the consent of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding
shares. The term "majority of the outstanding shares" means the vote of (i) 67%
or more of the Fund's shares present at a meeting, if more than 50% of the
outstanding shares of the Fund are present or represented by proxy, or (ii)
more than 50% of the Fund's outstanding shares, whichever is less.
The Fund may not:
1. Purchase securities of any issuer (except securities issued or guaranteed by
the United States, its agencies or instrumentalities, securities of regulated
investment companies, and if consistent with the Fund's investment objective
and policies, repurchase agreements involving such securities) if as a result
more than 25% of the total assets of the Fund would be invested in the
securities of such issuer. This restriction applies to 50% of the Fund's total
assets. With respect to the remaining 50% of its total assets, the Fund may not
purchase the securities of any issuer if as a result more than 5% of the total
assets of the Fund would be invested in the securities of such issuer. For
purposes of this limitation, a security is considered to be issued by the
government entity whose assets and revenues guarantee or back the security.
With respect to private activity bonds or industrial development bonds backed
only by the assets and revenues of a non-governmental user, such user would be
considered the issuer.
2. Purchase any securities that would cause more than 25% of the total assets
of the Fund to be invested in the securities of one or more issuers conducting
their principal business activities in the same industry, except for
investments in funds of The One Group(R), provided that this limitation does
not apply to investments in obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
government or its agencies and instrumentalities and repurchase agreements
involving such securities. For purposes of this limitation (i) utilities will
be divided according to their services (for example, gas, gas transmission,
electric and telephone will each be considered a separate industry); and (ii)
wholly-owned finance companies will be considered to be in the industries of
their parents if their activities are primarily related to financing the
activities of their parents.
3. Make loans, except that the Fund may (i) purchase or hold debt instruments
in accordance with its investment objective and policies; (ii) enter into
repurchase agreements; and (iii) engage in securities lending as described in
this Prospectus and in the Statement of Additional Information.
The foregoing percentages will apply at the time of purchase of a security.
Additional investment limitations are set forth in the Statement of Additional
Information. For the investment limitations of the Underlying Funds, see the
applicable prospectuses.
DESCRIPTION OF PERMITTED INVESTMENTS
The following is a description of certain of the permitted investments for the
Underlying Funds. As described above in "Investment Polices of the Fund -
Permissible Investments," the Fund may also invest directly in certain of the
following instruments for temporary
19
<PAGE> 267
defensive purposes. For a more detailed description, see the Statement of
Additional Information or the prospectuses of the Underlying Funds.
U.S. TREASURY OBLIGATIONS -- The funds may invest in bills, notes and bonds
issued by the U.S. Treasury and separately traded interest and principal
component parts of such obligations that are transferable through the Federal
book-entry system known as Separately Traded Registered Interest and Principal
Securities ("STRIPS") and Coupon Under Book Entry Safekeeping ("CUBES").
RECEIPTS -- The funds may purchase interests in separately traded interest and
principal component parts of U.S. Treasury obligations that are issued by banks
or brokerage firms and are created by depositing U.S. Treasury notes and U.S.
Treasury bonds into a special account at a custodian bank. Receipts include
Treasury Receipts ("TRS"), Treasury Investment Growth Receipts ("TIGRS"), and
Certificates of Accrual on Treasury Securities ("CATS").
CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT -- Certificates of deposit ("CDs") are negotiable
interest bearing instruments with a specific maturity. CDs are issued by banks
and savings and loan institutions in exchange for the deposit of funds and
normally can be traded in the secondary market prior to maturity.
TIME DEPOSITS -- Time deposits are non-negotiable receipts issued by a bank in
exchange for the deposit of funds. Like a certificate of deposit, a time
deposit ("TD") earns a specified rate of interest over a definite period of
time; however, it cannot be traded in the secondary market.
BANKERS' ACCEPTANCES -- Bankers' acceptances are bills of exchange or time
drafts drawn on and accepted by (i.e., made an obligation of) a commercial
bank. Maturities are generally six months or less.
COMMERCIAL PAPER -- Commercial paper is the term used to designate unsecured
short-term promissory notes issued by corporations and other entities.
Maturities on these issues vary from a few days to nine months.
U.S. GOVERNMENT AGENCIES -- Certain Federal agencies have been established as
instrumentalities of the U.S. government to supervise and finance specific
types of activities. Select agencies, such as the Government National Mortgage
Association ("Ginnie Mae") and the Export-Import Bank, are supported by the
full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury; others, such as the Federal
National Mortgage Association ("Fannie Mae"), are supported by the credit of
the instrumentality and have the right to borrow from the U.S. Treasury; others
are supported by the authority of the U.S. government to purchase the agency's
obligations; while still others, such as the Federal Farm Credit Banks and the
Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac"), are supported solely by
the credit of the instrumentality itself. No assurance can be given that the
U.S. government would provide financial support to U.S. government sponsored
agencies or instrumentalities if it is not obligated to do so by law.
Obligations of U.S. government agencies include debt issues and mortgage-backed
securities issued or guaranteed by select agencies.
CORPORATE SECURITIES -- Corporate securities include corporate bonds,
convertible and non-convertible debt securities, and preferred stocks, as well
as commercial paper (short-term promissory notes issued by corporations).
Issuers of corporate bonds and notes are divided into many different categories
by bond market sector, such as electric utilities, gas utilities, telephone
utilities, consumer finance companies, wholesale finance companies and
industrial companies. Within each major category of issuer, there are many
subcategories.
WARRANTS -- Warrants are securities, typically issued with preferred stock or
bonds, that give the holder the right to buy a proportionate amount of common
stock at a specified price, usually at a price that is higher than the market
price at the time of issuance of the warrant. The right may last for a period
of years or indefinitely.
COMMON STOCK -- Common stock represents a share of ownership in a company and
usually carries voting rights and earns dividends. Unlike preferred stock,
dividends on common stock are not fixed but are declared at the discretion of
the issuer's board of directors.
INVESTMENT COMPANY SECURITIES -- The funds may invest up to 5% of their total
assets in the securities of any one investment company, but may not own more
than 3% of the securities of any one investment company or invest more than 10%
of their assets in the securities of other investment companies.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- Repurchase agreements are agreements by which a person
obtains a security and simultaneously commits to return the security to the
seller at an agreed upon price (including principal and interest) on an agreed
upon date within a number of days from the date of purchase. The custodian or
its agent will hold the security as collateral for the repurchase agreement.
Collateral must be maintained at a value at least equal to 100% of the
repurchase price. The funds bear a risk of loss in the event the other party
defaults on its obligations and the funds are delayed or prevented from their
right to dispose of the collateral securities or if the funds realize a loss on
the sale of the collateral securities.
20
<PAGE> 268
REVERSE REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- The funds may borrow funds for temporary
purposes by entering into reverse repurchase agreements. Pursuant to such
agreements, the funds would sell portfolio securities to financial institutions
such as banks and broker-dealers, and agree to repurchase them at a mutually
agreed-upon date and price. The funds will enter into reverse repurchase
agreements only to avoid otherwise selling securities during unfavorable market
conditions to meet redemptions. At the time the funds enter into a reverse
repurchase agreement, they would place liquid high grade debt securities having
a value equal to the repurchase price (including accrued interest), in a
segregated custodial account and would subsequently monitor the account to
ensure that such equivalent value is maintained. Reverse repurchase agreements
involve the risk that the market value of the securities sold by the funds may
decline below the price at which the funds are obligated to repurchase the
securities.
DEMAND FEATURES -- The funds may acquire securities that are subject to puts and
standby commitments ("demand features") to purchase the securities at their
principal amount at a fixed price (usually with accrued interest) within a
fixed period (usually seven days) following a demand by the funds. The purpose
of engaging in transactions involving puts is to maintain flexibility and
liquidity to permit the funds to meet redemption requests and remain as fully
invested as possible.
ASSET-BACKED SECURITIES -- Asset-backed securities consist of securities secured
by company receivables, home equity loans, truck and auto loans, leases, credit
card receivables and other securities backed by other types of receivables or
other assets. These securities are generally pass-through securities, which
means that principal and interest payments on the underlying securities (less
servicing fees) are passed through to shareholders on a pro rata basis. These
securities involve prepayment risk, which is the risk that the underlying debt
will be refinanced or paid off prior to their maturities during periods of
declining interest rates. In that case, a portfolio manager may have to
reinvest the proceeds from the securities at a lower rate. Potential market
gains on a security subject to prepayment risk may be more limited than
potential market gains on a comparable security that is not subject to
prepayment risk. Under certain interest rate and prepayment rate scenarios, the
funds may fail to recoup fully their investment in asset-backed securities.
Asset-backed securities are commonly considered to be derivatives.
SHORT-TERM FUNDING AGREEMENTS -- The funds may, in order to enhance yield, make
limited investments in short-term funding agreements issued by banks and highly
rated insurance companies. Short-term funding agreements issued by insurance
companies are sometimes referred to as Guaranteed Investment Contracts
("GICs"), while those issued by banks are referred to as Bank Investment
Contracts ("BICs"). Pursuant to such agreements, the funds make cash
contributions to a deposit account at a bank or insurance company. The bank or
insurance company then credits to the funds on a monthly basis guaranteed
interest at either a fixed, variable or floating rate. These contracts are
general obligations of the issuing bank or insurance company and are paid from
the general assets of the issuing entity. The funds will purchase short-term
funding agreements only from banks and insurance companies which, at the time
of purchase, are rated "A" or the equivalent by at least one NRSRO and have
assets of $1 billion or more. Generally, there is no active secondary market
in short-term funding agreements.
SECURITIES OF FOREIGN ISSUERS -- The funds may invest in securities of foreign
issuers to achieve income or capital appreciation. The funds also may invest in
commercial paper of foreign issuers and obligations of foreign branches of U.S.
banks, U.S. and London branches of foreign banks, and supranational entities
which are established through the joint participation of several governments
(e.g., the Asian Development Bank and the Inter-American Development Bank).
Securities of foreign issuers may include sponsored and unsponsored American
Depository Receipts ("ADRs"), which are securities typically issued by a U.S.
financial institution that evidence ownership interests in a pool of securities
issued by a foreign issuer. ADRs include American Depository Shares and New
York Shares. There may be less information available on the foreign issuers of
unsponsored ADRs than on the issuers of sponsored ADRs.
MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES -- Mortgage-backed securities are debt obligations
secured by real estate loans and pools of loans. The funds may acquire
securities representing an interest in a pool of mortgage loans that are issued
or guaranteed by Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Mortgage-backed
securities may also be issued by non-governmental entities and may or may not
have private insurer guarantees of timely payments. The funds also may invest
in mortgage-backed securities issued by non-government entities, which consist
of Collateralized Mortgage Obligations ("CMOs") and Real Estate Mortgage
Investment Conduits ("REMICs"). Mortgage-backed securities are in most cases
"pass-through" instruments, through which the holder receives a share of all
interest and principal payments from the mortgages underlying the certificate.
Because the prepayment characteristics of the underlying mortgages vary, it is
not possible to predict accurately the average life or realized yield of a
particular issue of pass-through certificates. During periods of declining
interest rates, prepayment of mortgages underlying mortgage-backed securities
can be expected to accelerate. When the mortgage obligations are prepaid, the
funds may have to reinvest in securities with a lower yield. Moreover,
prepayment of mortgages which underlie securities purchased at a premium could
result in capital losses.
STRIPPED MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES -- The funds may, to enhance revenues or
hedge against interest rate risk, invest in stripped mortgage-backed securities
("SMBS"), which are derivative multiclass mortgage securities. The funds may
only invest in SMBS issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies
or instrumentalities. SMBS are usually structured with two classes that receive
different proportions of the interest and principal distributions from a pool
of mortgage assets. A common type of SMBS
21
<PAGE> 269
will have one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets
("IOs"), while the other class will receive all of the principal ("POs"). If
the underlying mortgage assets experience greater than anticipated prepayments
of principal, the funds may fail to fully recoup their initial investment in
these securities. Although the market for such securities is increasingly
liquid, certain SMBS may not be readily marketable and will be considered
illiquid for purposes of the funds' limitations on investments in illiquid
securities. The market value of the class consisting entirely of principal
payments generally is unusually volatile in response to changes in interest
rates.
MORTGAGE DOLLAR ROLLS -- The funds may enter into mortgage "dollar rolls" in
which the funds sell securities for delivery in the current month and
simultaneously contract with the same counterparty to repurchase similar (same
type, coupon and maturity) but not identical securities on a specified future
date. The funds benefit to the extent of any difference between the price
received for the securities sold and the lower forward price for the future
purchase (often referred to as the "drop") or fee income plus the interest
earned on the cash proceeds of the securities sold until the settlement date of
the forward purchase. Unless such benefits exceed the income, capital
appreciation and gain or loss due to mortgage prepayments that would have been
realized on the securities sold as part of the mortgage dollar roll, the use of
this technique will diminish the investment performance of the funds compared
with what such performance would have been without the use of mortgage dollar
rolls.
FIXED RATE MORTGAGE LOANS -- Generally, fixed rate mortgage loans eligible for
inclusion in a mortgage pool will bear simple interest at fixed annual rates
and have original terms to maturity ranging from 5 to 40 years. The funds may
invest in fixed rate mortgage loans that are privately issued and are not
issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government.
SECURITIES LENDING -- In order to generate additional income, the funds may
lend up to 33% of the securities in which they are invested pursuant to
agreements requiring that the loan be continuously secured by cash, securities
of the U.S. government or its agencies, shares of an investment trust or
mutual fund or any combination of cash and such securities as collateral equal
at all times to at least 100% of the market value plus accrued interest on the
securities lent. The funds will continue to receive interest on the securities
lent while simultaneously seeking to earn interest on the investment of cash
collateral in U.S. government securities, shares of an investment trust or
mutual fund, or other short-term, highly liquid investments. Collateral is
marked to market daily to provide a level of collateral at least equal to the
market value of the securities lent. There may be risks of delay in recovery of
the securities or even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of
the securities fail financially. However, loans will only be made to borrowers
deemed by the Adviser to be of good standing under guidelines established by
the Trust's Board of Trustees and when, in the judgment of the Adviser, the
consideration which can be earned currently from such securities loans
justifies the attendant risk. The funds will enter into loan arrangements only
with counterparties which the Adviser has deemed to be creditworthy under
guidelines established by the Board of Trustees. Loans are subject to
termination by the funds or the borrower at any time, and are therefore, not
considered to be illiquid investments.
RESTRICTED SECURITIES -- The funds may invest in commercial paper issued in
reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933. Section 4(2) commercial paper is restricted as to
disposition under Federal securities law and is generally sold to institutional
investors, such as the funds, who agree that they are purchasing the paper for
investment purposes and not with a view to public distribution.
VARIABLE AND FLOATING RATE INSTRUMENTS -- Certain of the obligations purchased
by the funds may carry variable or floating rates of interest, may involve a
conditional or unconditional demand feature and may include variable amount
master demand notes. The interest rates on these securities may be reset daily,
weekly, quarterly or some other reset period, and may have a floor or ceiling
on interest rate changes. There is a risk that the current interest rate on
such obligations may not accurately reflect existing market interest rates.
SECURITIES PURCHASED ON A WHEN-ISSUED BASIS AND FORWARD COMMITMENTS -- The
funds may purchase securities on a when-issued basis when deemed by the Adviser
to present attractive investment opportunities. When-issued securities are
purchased for delivery beyond the normal settlement date at a stated price and
yield, thereby involving the risk that the yield obtained will be less than
that available in the market at delivery. When the Adviser purchases a
when-issued security, the Custodian will set aside cash or liquid securities to
satisfy the purchase commitment. The funds generally will not pay for such
securities or earn interest on them until received. In a forward commitment
transaction, the funds contract to purchase securities for a fixed price at a
future date beyond customary settlement time. The funds are required to hold
and maintain in a segregated account until the settlement date, cash, U.S.
government securities or liquid high-grade debt obligations in an amount
sufficient to meet the purchase price. Alternatively, the funds may enter into
offsetting contracts for the forward sale of other securities that they own.
The purchase of securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis
involves a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines
prior to the settlement date.
OPTIONS -- The funds may purchase and write (i.e., sell) call options and put
options on securities and indices, which options are traded on national
securities exchanges. A call option gives the purchaser the right to buy, and
obligates the writer of the option to
22
<PAGE> 270
sell, the underlying security at the agreed upon exercise (or "strike") price
during the option period. A put option gives the purchaser the right to sell,
and obligates the writer to buy, the underlying security at the strike price
during the option period. There are risks associated with options transactions,
including the following: (i) the success of a hedging strategy may depend on
the ability of the Adviser to predict movements in the prices of the individual
securities, fluctuations in markets and movements in interest rates; (ii) there
may be an imperfect or no correlation between the changes in market value of
the securities held by the funds and the prices of options; (iii) there may not
be a liquid secondary market for options; and (iv) while the funds will receive
a premium when they write covered call options, they may not participate fully
in a rise in the market value of the underlying security. It is expected that
the funds will only engage in option transactions with respect to permitted
investments and related indices.
FUTURES CONTRACTS AND RELATED OPTIONS -- Certain of the funds may enter into
futures contracts, options on futures contracts, index futures and options
thereon that are traded on an exchange regulated by the Commodities Futures
Trading Commission ("CFTC") if, to the extent that such futures and options are
not for "bona fide hedging purposes" (as defined by the CFTC), the aggregate
initial margin and premiums on such positions (excluding the amount by which
options are in the money) do not exceed 5% of the funds' total assets at
current value. Options and futures can be volatile instruments, and involve
certain risks. If the Adviser applies a hedge at an inappropriate time or
judges interest rates incorrectly, options and futures strategies may lower a
fund's return. The funds could also experience losses if the prices of their
options and futures positions were poorly correlated with their other
instruments, or if they could not close out their positions because of an
illiquid secondary market.
SWAPS, CAPS AND FLOORS -- In order to protect the value of the funds from
interest rate fluctuations and to hedge against fluctuations in the floating
rate market in which the funds' investments are traded, the funds may enter
into swaps, caps, and floors on various securities (such as U.S. government
securities), securities indexes, interest rates, prepayment rates, foreign
currencies or other financial instruments or indexes, for both hedging and
non-hedging purposes. Swap contracts typically involve an exchange of
obligations by two sophisticated parties. For example, in an interest rate
swap, a fund may exchange with another party their respective rights to receive
interest, such as an exchange of fixed rate payments for floating rate
payments. Currency swaps involve the exchange of respective rights to make or
receive payments in specified currencies. Mortgage swaps are similar to
interest rate swaps in that they represent commitments to pay and receive
interest. The notional principal amount, however, is tied to a reference pool
or pools of mortgages.
Caps and floors are variations on swaps. The purchase of a cap entitles the
purchaser to receive a principal amount from the party selling the cap to the
extent that a specified index exceeds a predetermined interest rate or amount.
The purchase of an interest rate floor entitles the purchaser to receive
payments on a notional principal amount from the party selling the floor to the
extent that a specified index falls below a predetermined interest rate or
amount. Caps and floors are similar in many respects to over-the-counter
options transactions, and may involve investment risks that are similar to
those associated with options transactions and options on futures contracts.
NEW FINANCIAL PRODUCTS -- New options and futures contracts and other financial
products, and various combinations thereof, continue to be developed and the
funds may invest in any such options, contracts and products as may be
developed to the extent consistent with their investment objective, policies
and restrictions and the regulatory requirements applicable to investment
companies. These various products may be used to adjust the risk and return
characteristics of the funds' portfolio of investments. These various products
may increase or decrease exposure to security prices, interest rates, commodity
prices, or other factors that affect security values, regardless of the
issuer's credit risk. If market conditions do not perform consistent with
expectations, the performance of the funds would be less favorable than it
would have been if these products were not used. In addition, losses may occur
if counterparties involved in transactions do not perform as promised. These
products may expose the funds to potentially greater return as well as
potentially greater risk of loss than more traditional fixed-income
investments.
STRUCTURED INSTRUMENTS -- Structured instruments are debt securities issued by
agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government (such as Sallie Mae,
Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac), banks, municipalities, corporations,
and other business entities whose interest and/or principal payments are
indexed to certain specific foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, or
one or more other reference indices. Structured instruments frequently are
assembled in the form of medium-term notes, but a variety of forms are
available. Structured instruments are commonly considered to be derivatives.
While structured instruments may offer the potential for a favorable rate of
return from time to time, they also entail certain risks. Structured
instruments may be less liquid than other debt securities, and the price of
structured instruments may be more volatile. If the value of the reference
index changes in a manner other than that expected by the Adviser, principal
and/or interest payments on the structured instrument may be substantially less
than expected. In addition, although structured instruments may be sold in the
form of a corporate debt obligation, they may not have some of the protection
against counterparty default that may be available with respect to publicly
traded debt securities (i.e., the existence of a trust indenture).
23
<PAGE> 271
MUNICIPAL SECURITIES -- Municipal Securities are issued by a state or political
subdivision to obtain funds for various public purposes. Municipal securities
are generally classified as "general obligation" bonds and "revenue" bonds.
General obligation bonds are obligations involving the credit of an issuer
possessing taxing power and are payable from the issuer's general unrestricted
revenues. Revenue bonds are payable only from the revenues derived from a
particular facility or class of facilities or, in some cases, from the proceeds
of a special excise or other specific revenue source. Revenue bonds are not
payable from the issuer's general revenues. The funds also may purchase
short-term tax-exempt General Obligation Notes, Tax Anticipation Notes, Bond
Anticipation Notes, Revenue Anticipation Notes, Project Notes, and other forms
of short-term tax-exempt obligations. Such notes are issued with a short-term
maturity in anticipation of the receipt of tax funds, the proceeds of bond
placements, or other revenues.
An issuer's obligations under its municipal securities are subject to the
provisions of bankruptcy, insolvency, and other laws affecting the rights and
remedies of creditors, such as the federal bankruptcy code, and laws, if any,
which may be enacted by Congress or state legislatures extending the time for
payment of principal or interest, or both, or imposing other constraints upon
the enforcement of such obligations. The power or ability of an issuer to meet
its obligations for the payment of interest on and principal of its municipal
securities may be materially adversely affected by litigation or other
conditions. Such litigation or conditions may from time to time have the effect
of introducing uncertainties in the market for tax-exempt obligations or
certain segments thereof, or may materially affect the credit risk with respect
to particular bonds or notes. Adverse economic, business, legal or political
developments might affect all or a substantial portion of a fund's municipal
securities in the same manner. In addition, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code") imposes certain continuing requirements on issuers of
tax-exempt bonds regarding the use, expenditure and investment of bond proceeds
and the payment of rebates to the United States of America. Failure by the
issuer to comply subsequent to the issuance of tax-exempt bonds with certain of
these requirements could cause interest on the bonds to become includable in
gross income retroactive to the date of issuance.
INVERSE FLOATING RATE INSTRUMENTS -- The funds may seek to increase yield by
investing in leveraged inverse floating rate debt instruments ("inverse
floaters"). The interest rate on an inverse floater resets in the opposite
direction from the market rate of interest to which the inverse floater is
indexed. An inverse floater may be considered to be leveraged to the extent
that its interest rate varies by a magnitude that exceeds the magnitude of the
change in the index rate of interest. The higher degree of leverage inherent in
inverse floaters is associated with greater volatility in their market values.
Accordingly, the duration of an inverse floater may exceed its stated final
maturity.
DESCRIPTION OF RATINGS
The following descriptions are summaries of published ratings.
DESCRIPTION OF COMMERCIAL PAPER RATINGS
The following descriptions of commercial paper ratings have been published by
Standard & Poor's Corporation ("S&P"), Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's"),
Fitch's Investors Service ("Fitch"), Duff and Phelps ("Duff"), and IBCA Limited
("IBCA"), respectively.
Commercial paper rated A by S&P is regarded by S&P as having the greatest
capacity for timely payment. Issues rated A are further refined by use of the
numbers 1+, 1 and 2 to indicate the relative degree of safety. Issues rated
A-1+ are those with an "overwhelming degree" of credit protection. Those rated
A-1 reflect a "very strong" degree of safety regarding timely payment. Those
rated A-2 reflect a high degree of safety regarding timely payment but not as
high as A-1.
Commercial paper issues rated Prime-1 and Prime-2 by Moody's are judged by
Moody's to be of the "highest" quality and "higher" quality, respectively, on
the basis of relative repayment capacity.
The rating Fitch-1 (Highest Grade) is the highest commercial rating assigned by
Fitch. Paper rated Fitch-1 is regarded as having the strongest degree of
assurance for timely payment. The rating Fitch-2 (Very Good Grade) is the
second highest commercial paper rating assigned by Fitch which reflects an
assurance of timely payment only slightly less in degree than the strongest
issues.
The rating Duff-1 is the highest commercial paper rating assigned by Duff.
Paper rated Duff-1 is regarded as having very high certainty of timely payment
with excellent liquidity factors which are supported by ample asset protection.
Risk factors are minor. Paper rated Duff-2 is regarded as having good certainty
of timely payment, good access to capital markets and sound liquidity factors
and company fundamentals. Risk factors are small.
The designation A1 by IBCA indicates that the obligation is supported by a very
strong capacity for timely repayment. Those obligations rated A1+ are supported
by the highest capacity for timely repayment. Obligations rated A2 are
supported by a strong capacity for timely repayment, although such capacity may
be susceptible to adverse changes in business, economic or financial
conditions.

Investment Grade
- ----------------
Bonds rated AAA have the highest rating S&P assigns to a debt obligation. Such
a rating indicates an extremely strong capacity to pay principal and interest.
Bonds rated AA also qualify as high-quality debt obligations. Capacity to pay
principal and interest is very strong, and in the majority of instances they
differ from AAA issues only in a small degree. Debt rated A has a strong
capacity to pay interest and repay principal although it is somewhat more
susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic
conditions than debt in higher rated categories.
Bonds rated BBB by S&P are regarded as having an adequate capacity to pay
interest and repay principal. Whereas it normally exhibits adequate protection
parameters, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more
likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay interest and repay principal for
bonds in this category than in higher categories.
Non-Investment Grade
- --------------------
Bonds rated BB have less near-term vulnerability to default than other
speculative issues. However, they face major ongoing uncertainties or exposure
to adverse business, financial or economic conditions which could lead to
inadequate capacity to meet timely interest and principal payments. The BB
rated category is also used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied BBB rating.
Bonds rated B have a greater vulnerability to default but currently have the
capacity to meet interest payments and principal repayments. Adverse business,
financial or economic conditions will likely impair capacity or willingness to
pay interest and repay principal. The B rating category is also used for debt
subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an actual or implied BB or
BB-rating.
Bonds rated CCC have currently identifiable vulnerability to default, and are
dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions to meet
timely payment of interest and repayment of principal. In the event of adverse
business, financial, or economic conditions, they are not likely to have the
capacity to pay interest and repay principal. The CCC rating category is also
used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an actual or implied
B or B- rating.
The rating CC typically is applied to debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied CCC rating.
The rating C typically is applied to debt subordinated to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied CCC rating. The C rating may be used to cover a
situation where a bankruptcy petition has been filed, but debt service payments
are continued.
The rating C1 is reserved for income bonds on which no interest is being paid.
Bonds rated D are in payment default. The D rating category is used when
interest payments or principal payments are not made on the date due, even if
the applicable grace period has not expired, unless Standard & Poor believes
that such payments will be made during such grace period. The D rating also
will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition if debt service payments
are jeopardized.
Plus (+) or minus (-). Ratings from AA to CCC may be modified by the addition
of a plus or minus sign to show relative standing within the major rating
categories.
Moody's Investor Service, Inc.
Investment Grade
- ----------------
Bonds that are rated Aaa by Moody's are judged to be of the best quality. They
carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally referred to as
"gilt edge." Interest payments are protected by a large, or an exceptionally
stable, margin and principal is
25
<PAGE> 273
secure. While the various protective elements are likely to change, such
changes as can be visualized are most unlikely to impair the fundamentally
strong position of such issues. Bonds rated Aa by Moody's are judged by Moody's
to be of high quality by all standards. Together with bonds rated Aaa, they
comprise what are generally known as high-grade bonds. They are rated lower
than the best bonds because margins of protection may not be as large as in Aaa
securities or fluctuation of protective elements may be of greater amplitude or
there may be other elements present that make the long-term risks appear
somewhat larger than in Aaa securities. Bonds that are rated A possess many
favorable investment attributes and are to be considered as upper-medium grade
obligations. Factors giving security to principal and interest are considered
adequate, but elements may be present which suggest a susceptibility to
impairment sometime in the future.
Bonds that are rated Baa by Moody's are considered as medium-grade obligations
(i.e., they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured). Interest payments
and principal security appear adequate for the present but certain protective
elements may be lacking or may be characteristically unreliable over any great
length of time. Such bonds lack outstanding investment characteristics and in
fact have speculative characteristics as well.
Changes in economic conditions or other circumstances are more likely to lead
to a weakened capacity of the issuers of securities rated BBB or Baa to make
principal and interest payments than is the case with higher grade securities.
Non-Investment Grade
- --------------------
Bonds rated Ba are more uncertain and have speculative elements. The protection
of interest and principal payments is not well safeguarded during good and bad
times. Bonds rated B lack the characteristics of a desirable investment (i.e.,
potentially low assurance of timely interest and principal payments or
maintenance of other contract terms over time).
Bonds rated Caa have poor standing and may be in default. These bonds carry an
element of danger with respect to principal and interest payments. Bonds rated
Ca are speculative to a high degree and could be in default or have other
marked shortcomings. C is the lowest rating. Bonds in this category have
extremely poor prospects of ever attaining investment standing.
Unrated securities will be treated as non-investment grade securities unless
the Adviser determines that such securities are the equivalent of investment
grade securities. Securities that have received different ratings from more
than one agency are considered investment grade if at least one agency has
rated the security investment grade.
DESCRIPTION OF MUNICIPAL NOTE RATINGS
Moody's highest rating for state, municipal and other short-term notes is MIG-1
and VMIG-1. Short-term municipal securities rated MIG-1 or VMIG-1 are of the
best quality. They have strong protection from established cash flows of funds
for their servicing or from established and broad-based access to the market
for refinancing or both. Short-term municipal securities rated MIG-2 and VMIG-2
are of high quality. Margins of protection are ample although not so large as
in the preceding group.
An S&P note rating reflects the liquidity concerns and market access risks
unique to notes. Notes due in three years or less will likely receive a note
rating. Notes maturing beyond three years will most likely receive a long-term
debt rating. The following criteria will be used in making that assessment:
- - Amortization schedule (the larger the final maturity relative to other
maturities the more likely it will be treated as a note).
- - Source of Payment (the more dependent the issue is on the market for its
refinancing, the more likely it will be treated as a note).
Note rating symbols are as follows:
SP-1 Very strong or strong capacity to pay principal and interest. Those issues
determined to possess overwhelming safety characteristics will be given a plus
(+) designation.
SP-2 Satisfactory capacity to pay principal and interest.
MISCELLANEOUS
PERFORMANCE
From time to time, the Fund may advertise yield, total return and/or
distribution rate. These figures will be based on historical earnings and are
not intended to indicate future performance. The yield of the Fund refers to
the annualized income generated by
26
<PAGE> 274
an investment in the Fund over a specified 30-day period. The yield is
calculated by assuming that the income generated by the investment during that
period is generated over a one-year period and is shown as a percentage of the
investment.
Total return is the change in value of an investment in the Fund over a given
period, assuming reinvestment of any dividends and capital gains. A cumulative
total return reflects an actual rate of return over a stated period of time. An
average annual total return is a hypothetical rate of return that, if achieved
annually, would have produced the same cumulative total return if performance
had been constant over the entire period. Average annual total returns smooth
out variations in performance; they are not the same as actual year-by-year
results.
The distribution rate is computed by dividing the total amount of the dividends
per share paid out during the past period by the maximum offering price or
month-end net asset value depending on the class of the Fund. This figure is
then "annualized" (multiplied by 365 days and divided by the applicable number
of days in the period). Funds with a front-end sales charge would incorporate
the offering price into the distribution yield in place of month-end net asset
value.
Distribution rate is a measure of the level of income paid out in cash to
Shareholders over a specified period. It differs from yield and total return
and is not intended to be a complete measure of performance. Furthermore, the
distribution rate may include return of principal and/or capital gains. Total
return is the change in value of a hypothetical investment over a given period
assuming reinvestment of dividends and capital gain distributions. The yield
refers to the cumulative 30-day rolling net investment income, divided by
maximum offering price and multiplied by average shares outstanding during this
period. See the Statement of Additional Information.
The Trust will include information on all classes of shares of the Fund in any
advertisement or information including performance data for the Fund. The
performance for Fiduciary Class shares may be higher than for Class A shares
and Class B shares because Fiduciary Class shares are not subject to sales
charges and distribution expenses.
The performance of each class of the Fund may from time to time be compared to
that of other mutual funds tracked by mutual fund rating services, to that of
broad groups of comparable mutual funds or to that of unmanaged indices that
may assume investment of dividends but do not reflect deductions for
administrative and management costs. In addition, the performance of each class
of the Fund may be compared to other funds or to relevant indices that may
calculate total return without reflecting sales charges; in which case, the
Fund may advertise its total return in the same manner. If reflected, sales
charges would reduce these total return calculations.
TAXES
The following summary of Federal income tax consequences is based on current
tax laws and regulations, which may be changed by legislative, judicial or
administrative action. No attempt has been made to present a complete
explanation of the Federal, state, local or foreign tax treatment of the Fund
or its Shareholders. Accordingly, Shareholders are urged to consult their tax
advisers regarding specific questions as to the tax consequences of investing
in the Fund.
TAX STATUS OF THE FUND
The Fund is treated as a separate entity for Federal income tax purposes and is
not combined with the Trust's other funds. The Fund intends to qualify as a
"regulated investment company" for Federal income tax purposes and to meet all
other requirements that are necessary for it to be relieved of Federal taxes on
that part of its net investment income and net capital gains (the excess of net
long-term capital gain over net short-term capital loss) that is distributed to
Shareholders.
TAX STATUS OF DISTRIBUTIONS
The Fund will distribute substantially all of its net investment income
(including, for this purpose, net short-term capital gain) to Shareholders of
each class of shares of the Fund on at least an annual basis. Generally,
dividends from net investment income will be taxable to Shareholders as
ordinary income whether received in cash or in additional shares, and any net
capital gains will be distributed at least annually and will be taxed to
Shareholders as long-term capital gains, regardless of how long the Shareholder
has held shares.
Distributions by the Fund to retirement plans that qualify for tax-exempt
treatment under the Code ("qualified retirement plans") will not be taxable.
The Federal tax treatment of qualified retirement plans, as well as
distributions from such plans, is governed by specific provisions of the Code.
If shares are held by a retirement plan that ceases to qualify for tax-exempt
treatment under the Code or by an individual who has received such shares as a
distribution from a retirement plan, the Fund's distributions will be taxable
to such plan or individual as described in the preceding paragraph. Persons
considering directing the investment of their qualified
27
<PAGE> 275
retirement plan account in the Fund and qualified retirement plan trusts
considering purchasing such shares, should consult their tax advisers for a
more complete explanation of the Federal tax consequences, and for an
explanation of the state, local and (if applicable) foreign tax consequences of
making such an investment.
The Fund will make annual reports to Shareholders of the Federal income tax
status of all distributions.
Certain securities purchased by the Fund (such as STRIPS, CUBES, TRS, TIGRS and
CATS), as defined in the "Description of Permitted Investments," are sold at
original issue discount and thus do not make periodic cash interest payments.
The Fund will be required to include as part of its current income the imputed
interest on such obligations even though the Fund has not received any interest
payments on such obligations during that period. Because the Fund distributes
substantially all of its net investment income to its Shareholders (including
such imputed interest), the Fund may have to sell portfolio securities in order
to generate the cash necessary for the required distributions. Such sales may
occur at a time when the Adviser would not have chosen to sell such securities
and may result in a taxable gain or loss.
Dividends declared by the Fund in October, November or December of any year and
payable to Shareholders of record on a date in such a month will be deemed to
have been paid by the Fund and received by Shareholders on December 31 of that
year, if paid by the Fund at any time during the following January.
The Fund intends to make sufficient distributions prior to the end of each
calendar year to avoid liability for Federal excise tax.
Dividends received by a Shareholder that are derived from the Fund's
investments in U.S. government obligations may not be entitled to the
exemptions from state and local income taxes that would be available if the
Shareholder had purchased U.S. government obligations directly. The Fund will
inform Shareholders annually of the percentage of income and distributions
derived from U.S. government obligations. Shareholders should consult their tax
advisers regarding the state and local tax treatment of the dividends received
from the Fund.
The Fund may be subject to foreign withholding taxes on income derived from
obligations of foreign issuers. The Fund will not be able to elect to treat
Shareholders as having paid their proportionate share of such foreign taxes.
Sale, exchange or redemption of Fund shares by a Shareholder will generally be
a taxable event to such Shareholder.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
The following policies supplement each Fund's investment objective and
policies as set forth in the respective Prospectus for that Fund.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON FUND INSTRUMENTS
- ------------------------------------------
High Quality Investments With Regard to the Money Market and
------------------------------------------------------------
Institutional Money Market Funds
- --------------------------------
As noted in the Prospectuses for the Money Market and Institutional
Money Market Funds, each such Fund may invest only in obligations determined by
the Fund's investment adviser ("Adviser") to present minimal credit risks under
guidelines adopted by the Trust's Board of Trustees.
The Treasury Money Market Fund and the Treasury Only Money Market Fund
may only invest in U.S. Treasury bills, notes and other U.S. Treasury
obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government. Some of the securities
held by the Treasury Money Market Fund may be subject to repurchase agreements.
The Government Money Market Fund invests exclusively in securities
issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or its agencies or
instrumentalities, some of which may be subject to repurchase agreements.
The Tax Exempt Money Market Fund may invest only in obligations which,
at the time of purchase, (i) possess the highest short-term ratings from a
nationally recognized statistical rating organization (an "NRSRO") in the case
of single-rated securities; or (ii) possess, in the case of multiple-rated
securities, the highest short-term ratings by at least two NRSROs; or (iii) do
not possess a rating (I.E., are unrated) but are determined by the Adviser or
the Sub-Adviser to be of comparable quality to the rated instruments eligible
for purchase by the Fund under guidelines adopted by the Board of Trustees
(collectively, "First Tier Securities"). Some of the securities of the Tax
Exempt Money Market Fund may be subject to repurchase agreements.
With regard to the Money Market Funds and the Institutional Money
Market Funds other than the Tax Exempt Money Market Fund, investments will be
limited to those obligations which, at the time of purchase, (i) possess one of
the two highest short-term ratings from an NRSRO in the case of single-rated
securities; or (ii) possess, in the case of multiple-rated
B-2
<PAGE> 289
securities, one of the two highest short-term ratings by at least two NRSROs or
(iii) do not possess a rating (I.E., are unrated) but are determined by the
Adviser or the Sub-Adviser to be of comparable quality to the rated instruments
eligible for purchase by the Trust under guidelines adopted by the Board of
Trustees (collectively, "Eligible Securities"). A security that has not received
a rating will be deemed to possess the rating assigned to an outstanding class
of the issuer's short-term debt obligations if determined by the Adviser or the
Sub-Adviser to be comparable in priority and security to the obligation selected
for purchase by the Trust.
A security subject to a tender or demand feature will be considered an
Eligible Security only if both the demand feature and the underlying security
possess a high quality rating or, if such do not possess a rating, are
determined by the Adviser or the Sub-Adviser to be of comparable quality;
provided, however, that where the demand feature would be readily exercisable in
the event of a default in payment of principal or interest on the underlying
security, the obligation may be acquired based on the rating possessed by the
demand feature or, if the demand feature does not possess a rating, a
determination of comparable quality by the Adviser or the Sub-Adviser. A
security which at the time of issuance had a maturity exceeding 397 days but, at
the time of purchase, has a remaining maturity of 397 days or less, is not
considered an Eligible Security if it does not possess a high quality rating and
the long-term rating, if any, is not within the two highest rating categories.
Eligible Securities include First-Tier Securities and Second-Tier
Securities. First-Tier Securities include those that possess a rating in the
highest category, in the case of a single-rated security, or at least two
ratings in the highest rating category, in the case of multiple-rated
securities, or, if the securities do not possess a rating, are determined to be
of comparable quality by the Adviser or the Sub-Adviser pursuant to the
guidelines adopted by the Board of Trustees. Second-Tier Securities are all
other Eligible Securities.
Each Money Market and Institutional Money Market Fund other than the
Ohio Municipal Money Market, Municipal Money Market and Tax Exempt Money Market
Funds will not invest more than 5% of its total assets in the First Tier
Securities of any one issuer. In addition, each Fund other than the Municipal
Money Market Fund, the Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund, and the Tax Exempt
Money Market Fund may not invest more than 5% of its total assets in Second Tier
Securities, with investment in the Second Tier Securities of any one issuer
further limited to the greater of 1% of the Fund's total assets or $1.0 million.
If a percentage limitation is satisfied at the time of purchase, a later
increase in such percentage resulting from a change in the Fund's net asset
value or a subsequent change in a security's qualification as a First Tier or
Second Tier Security will not constitute a violation of the limitation. In
addition, there is no limit on the percentage of a Fund's assets that may be
invested in obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its
agencies, or instrumentalities and, with respect to each Money Market Fund and
each Institutional Money Market Fund other than the Treasury Only Money Market
Fund, repurchase agreements fully collateralized by such obligations.
Under the guidelines adopted by the Trust's Board of Trustees and in
accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act, the Adviser may be required to
promptly dispose of an obligation
B-3
<PAGE> 290
held in a Fund's portfolio in the event of certain developments that indicate a
diminishment of the instrument's credit quality, such as where an NRSRO
downgrades an obligation below the second highest rating category, or in the
event of a default relating to the financial condition of the issuer.
The Appendix to this Statement of Additional Information identifies
each NRSRO which may be utilized by the Adviser with regard to portfolio
investments for the Funds and provides a description of relevant ratings
assigned by each such NRSRO. A rating by an NRSRO may be utilized only where the
NRSRO is neither controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the
issuer of, or any issuer, guarantor, or provider of credit support for, the
instrument.
Bank Obligations
----------------
Each Fund except the U.S. Treasury Securities Money Market Fund, the
International Equity Index Fund, the Treasury Money Market Fund, the Treasury
Only Money Market Fund, and the Government Money Market Fund may invest in bank
obligations such as bankers' acceptances, certificates of deposit, and demand
and time deposits. The International Equity Index Fund may invest in bank
obligations such as certificates of deposit and demand and time deposits.
Bankers' acceptances are negotiable drafts or bills of exchange
typically drawn by an importer or exporter to pay for specific merchandise,
which are "accepted" by a bank, meaning, in effect, that the bank
unconditionally agrees to pay the face value of the instrument on maturity.
Bankers' acceptances invested in by the Funds will be those guaranteed by
domestic and foreign banks having, at the time of investment, total assets in
excess of $1 billion (as of the date of their most recently published financial
statements).
Certificates of deposit are negotiable certificates issued against
funds deposited in a commercial bank or a savings and loan association for a
definite period of time and earning a specified return. Certificates of deposit
will be those of domestic and foreign branches of U.S. commercial banks which
are members of the Federal Reserve System or the deposits of which are insured
by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and in certificates of deposit of
domestic savings and loan associations the deposits of which are insured by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation if, at the time of purchase, such
institutions have total assets in excess of $1 billion (as of the date of their
most recently published financial statements). Certificates of deposit may also
include those issued by foreign banks outside the United States with total
assets at the time of purchase in excess of the equivalent of $1 billion. The
Funds may also invest in Eurodollar certificates of deposit, which are U.S.
dollar-denominated certificates of deposit issued by branches of foreign and
domestic banks located outside the United States, and Yankee certificates of
deposit, which are certificates of deposit issued by a U.S. branch of a foreign
bank denominated in U.S. dollars and held in the United States. The
International Equity Index Fund may also invest in obligations (including
banker's acceptances and certificates of deposit) denominated in foreign
currencies (see "Foreign Investments" herein).
B-4
<PAGE> 291
Time deposits are interest-bearing non-negotiable deposits at a bank or
a savings and loan association that have a specific maturity date. Demand
deposits are funds deposited in a commercial bank or a savings and loan
association which, without prior notice to the bank, may be withdrawn generally
by negotiable draft. Time and demand deposits will be maintained only at banks
or savings and loan associations from which a Fund could purchase certificates
of deposit.
Commercial Paper
----------------
Commercial paper consists of unsecured promissory notes issued by
corporations. Except as noted below with respect to variable amount master
demand notes, issues of commercial paper normally have maturities of less than
nine months and fixed rates of return.
The Limited Volatility Bond Fund may purchase commercial paper
consisting of issues rated at the time of purchase in the highest rating
category by at least one NRSRO (such as A-1 by Standard & Poor's Corporation
("S&P"), P-1 by Moody's Investor Service, Inc. ("Moody's") or F-1 by Fitch
Investors Services ("Fitch")) or if unrated, determined by the Adviser to be of
comparable quality. The Asset Allocation Fund, the Equity Funds other than the
International Equity Index Fund, the Municipal Bond Funds, the Income Bond Fund,
the Intermediate Bond Fund, the Government Bond Fund and the Ultra Short-Term
Income Fund may purchase commercial paper consisting of issues rated at the time
of purchase in the highest or second highest rating category by at least one
NRSRO (such as A-2 or better by S&P, P-2 or better by Moody's or F-2 or better
by Fitch) or if unrated, determined by the Adviser or Investment Sub-Adviser
("Sub-Adviser") to be of comparable quality. The Income Fund may purchase
commercial paper consisting of issues rated in all rating categories by at least
one NRSRO, or, if unrated, determined by the Adviser to be of comparable
quality.
Repurchase Agreements
---------------------
Securities held by each Fund other than the Treasury Only Money Market
Fund may be subject to repurchase agreements. Under the terms of a repurchase
agreement, a Fund would acquire securities from member banks of the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (or in the case of the International Equity Index
Fund, such banks or foreign banks) with total assets in excess of $1 billion (or
in the case of the International Equity Index Fund, the equivalent of $1
billion) and registered broker-dealers (or in the case of the International
Equity Index Fund, broker-dealers which may or may not be registered) which the
Fund's Adviser deems creditworthy under guidelines approved by the Board of
Trustees, subject to the seller's agreement to repurchase such securities at a
mutually agreed-upon date and price. The repurchase price would generally equal
the price paid by the Fund plus interest negotiated on the basis of current
short-term rates, which may be more or less than the rate on the underlying
portfolio securities. The seller under a repurchase agreement will be required
to maintain the value of collateral held pursuant to the agreement at not less
than the repurchase price (including accrued interest). If the seller were to
default on its repurchase obligation or become insolvent, the Fund holding such
obligation would suffer a loss to the extent that the proceeds from a sale
B-5
<PAGE> 292
of the underlying portfolio securities were less than the repurchase price under
the agreement, or to the extent that the disposition of such securities by the
Fund were delayed pending court action. Additionally, there is no controlling
legal precedent under U.S. law and there may be no controlling legal precedents
under the laws of certain foreign jurisdictions confirming that a Fund would be
entitled, as against a claim by such seller or its receiver or trustee in
bankruptcy, to retain the underlying securities, although (with respect to
repurchase agreements subject to U.S. law) the Board of Trustees of the Trust
believes that, under the regular procedures normally in effect for custody of a
Fund's securities subject to repurchase agreements and under federal laws, a
court of competent jurisdiction would rule in favor of the Trust if presented
with the question. Securities subject to repurchase agreements will be held by
the Trust's custodian or another qualified custodian or in the Federal
Reserve/Treasury book-entry system. Although there is no current intention to do
so, the International Equity Index Fund reserves the right in the future to
enter into repurchase agreements. Repurchase agreements are considered by the
Securities and Exchange Commission to be loans by a Fund under the 1940 Act.
Reverse Repurchase Agreements
-----------------------------
Each of the Funds other than the Treasury Only Money Market Fund, the
Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund and the Funds of Funds may borrow funds for
temporary purposes by entering into reverse repurchase agreements, although the
International Equity Index Fund has no current intention to do so. Pursuant to
such agreements, a Fund would sell portfolio securities to financial
institutions such as banks and broker-dealers, and agree to repurchase them at a
mutually agreed-upon date and price. A Fund would enter into reverse repurchase
agreements only to avoid otherwise selling securities during unfavorable market
conditions to meet redemptions. At the time a Fund entered into a reverse
repurchase agreement, it would place in a segregated custodial account assets,
such as liquid high grade debt securities consistent with the Fund's investment
restrictions and having a value equal to the repurchase price (including accrued
interest), and would subsequently monitor the account to ensure that such
equivalent value was maintained. Reverse repurchase agreements involve the risk
that the market value of the securities sold by a Fund may decline below the
price at which the Fund is obligated to repurchase the securities. Reverse
repurchase agreements are considered by the Securities and Exchange Commission
to be borrowings by a Fund under the 1940 Act.
Government Securities
---------------------
With the exception of the U.S. Treasury Securities Money Market Fund,
the Treasury Money Market Fund and the Treasury Only Money Market Fund, which
will invest only in obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury, each
of the Funds may invest in obligations issued or guaranteed by agencies and
instrumentalities of the U.S. government. Obligations of certain agencies and
instrumentalities of the U.S. government are supported by the full faith and
credit of the U.S. Treasury; others are supported by the right of the issuer to
borrow from the Treasury; others are supported by the discretionary authority of
the U.S. government to purchase the agency's obligations; and still others are
supported only by the credit
B-6
<PAGE> 293
of the instrumentality. No assurance can be given that the U.S. government would
provide financial support to U.S. government-sponsored agencies or
instrumentalities if it is not obligated to do so by law. A Fund will invest in
the obligations of such agencies or instrumentalities only when its Adviser or
Sub-Adviser believes that the credit risk with respect thereto is minimal. For
information on mortgage-related securities issued by certain agencies or
instrumentalities of the U.S. government, see "Investment Objectives and
Policies--Mortgage-related Securities" in this Statement of Additional
Information.
Futures and Options Trading
---------------------------
FUTURES CONTRACTS. The Equity Funds and the Bond Funds may enter into futures
contracts, options, options on futures contracts and stock index futures
contracts and options thereon for the purposes of remaining fully invested and
reducing transaction costs. Futures contracts provide for the future sale by one
party and purchase by another party of a specified amount of a specific
security, class of securities, or an index at a specified future time and at a
specified price. A stock index futures contract is a bilateral agreement
pursuant to which two parties agree to take or make delivery of an amount of
cash equal to a specified dollar amount times the difference between the stock
index value at the close of trading of the contracts and the price at which the
futures contract is originally struck. Futures contracts which are standardized
as to maturity date and underlying financial instrument are traded on national
futures exchanges. Futures exchanges and trading are regulated under the
Commodity Exchange Act by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC"), a
U.S. government agency.
Although futures contracts by their terms call for actual delivery and
acceptance of the underlying securities, in most cases the contracts are closed
out before the settlement date without the making or taking of delivery. Closing
out an open futures position is done by taking an opposite position ("buying" a
contract which has previously been "sold," or "selling" a contract previously
purchased) in an identical contract to terminate the position. A futures
contract on a securities index is an agreement obligating either party to pay,
and entitling the other party to receive, while the contract is outstanding,
cash payments based on the level of a specified securities index. The
acquisition of put and call options on futures contracts will, respectively,
give a Fund the right (but not the obligation), for a specified price, to sell
or to purchase the underlying futures contract, upon exercise of the option, at
any time during the option period. Brokerage commissions are incurred when a
futures contract is bought or sold.
Futures traders are required to make a good faith margin deposit in
cash or government securities with a broker or custodian to initiate and
maintain open positions in futures contracts. A margin deposit is intended to
assure completion of the contract (delivery or acceptance of the underlying
security) if it is not terminated prior to the specified delivery date. Minimal
initial margin requirements are established by the futures exchange and may be
changed. Brokers may establish deposit requirements which are higher than the
exchange minimums. Initial margin deposits on futures contracts are customarily
set at levels much lower than the prices at which the underlying securities are
purchased and sold, typically ranging upward from less than 5% of the value of
the contract being traded.
B-7
<PAGE> 294
After a futures contract position is opened, the value of the contract
is marked to market daily. If the futures contract price changes to the extent
that the margin on deposit does not satisfy margin requirements, payment of
additional "variation" margin will be required. Conversely, change in the
contract value may reduce the required margin, resulting in a repayment of
excess margin to the contract holder. Variation margin payments are made to and
from the futures broker for as long as the contract remains open. The Funds
expect to earn interest income on their margin deposits.
Traders in futures contracts may be broadly classified as either
"hedgers" or "speculators." Hedgers use the futures markets primarily to offset
unfavorable changes in the value of securities otherwise held for investment
purposes or expected to be acquired by them. Speculators are less inclined to
own the securities underlying the futures contracts which they trade, and use
futures contracts with the expectation of realizing profits from fluctuations in
the prices of underlying securities. The Funds intend to enter into futures
contracts, options on futures contracts, index futures and options thereon that
are traded on an exchange regulated by the CFTC if, to the extent that such
futures and options are not for "bona fide hedging purposes" (as defined by the
CFTC), the aggregate initial margin and premiums on such positions (excluding
the amount by which options are in the money) do not exceed 5% of the Fund's
total assets at current value.
When interest rates are expected to rise or market values of portfolio
securities are expected to fall, a Fund can seek through the sale of futures
contracts to offset a decline in the value of its portfolio securities. When
interest rates are expected to fall or market values are expected to rise, a
Fund, through the purchase of such contracts, can attempt to secure better rates
or prices for the Fund than might later be available in the market when it
effects anticipated purchases.
The Funds will only sell futures contracts to protect securities they
own against price declines or purchase contracts to protect against an increase
in the price of securities they intend to purchase. When futures contracts or
options thereon are purchased to protect against a price increase on securities
intended to be purchased later, the Funds expect that approximately 75% of their
futures contract purchases will be "completed," that is, equivalent amounts of
related securities will have been purchased or will be purchased by the Funds
upon sale of open futures contracts.
Although techniques other than the sale and purchase of futures
contracts could be used to control the Funds' exposure to market fluctuations,
the use of futures contracts may be a more effective means of hedging this
exposure. While the Funds will incur commission expenses in both opening and
closing out futures positions, these costs are lower than transaction costs that
would be incurred in the purchase and sale of the underlying securities.
A Fund's ability to effectively utilize futures trading depends on
several factors. First, it is possible that there will not be a perfect price
correlation between the futures contracts and
B-8
<PAGE> 295
their underlying stock index. Second, it is possible that a lack of liquidity
for futures contracts could exist in the secondary market, resulting in an
inability to close a futures position prior to its maturity date. Third, the
purchase of a futures contract involves the risk that a Fund could lose more
than the original margin deposit required to initiate a futures transaction.
RESTRICTIONS ON THE USE OF FUTURES CONTRACTS. None of the Funds will enter into
futures contract transactions for purposes other than bona fide hedging purposes
to the extent that, immediately thereafter, the sum of its initial margin
deposits and premiums on open contracts exceeds 5% of the market value of the
respective Fund's total assets. The Funds of Funds will not enter into futures
contract transactions, however, the One Group mutual funds in which they invest
may do so as described herein. In addition, none of the Equity Funds will enter
into futures contracts to the extent that the value of the futures contracts
held would exceed 25% of the respective Fund's total assets. Futures
transactions will be limited to the extent necessary to maintain each Fund's
qualification as a regulated investment company.
The Funds have undertaken to restrict their futures contract trading as
follows: first, the Funds will not engage in transactions in futures contracts
for speculative purposes; second, the Funds will not market themselves to the
public as commodity pools or otherwise as vehicles for trading in the
commodities futures or commodity options markets; third, the Funds will disclose
to all prospective Shareholders the purpose of and limitations on their
commodity futures trading; fourth, the Funds will submit to the CFTC special
calls for information. Accordingly, registration as a commodities pool operator
with the CFTC is not required.
In addition to the margin restrictions discussed above, transactions in
futures contracts may involve the segregation of funds pursuant to requirements
imposed by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under those requirements,
where a Fund has a long position in a futures contract, it may be required to
establish a segregated account (not with a futures commission merchant or
broker) containing cash or certain liquid assets equal to the purchase price of
the contract (less any margin on deposit). For a short position in futures or
forward contracts held by a Fund, those requirements may mandate the
establishment of a segregated account (not with a futures commission merchant or
broker) with cash or certain liquid assets that, when added to the amounts
deposited as margin, equal the market value of the instruments underlying the
futures contracts (but are not less than the price at which the short positions
were established). However, segregation of assets is not required if a Fund
"covers" a long position. For example, instead of segregating assets, a Fund,
when holding a long position in a futures contract, could purchase a put option
on the same futures contract with a strike price as high or higher than the
price of the contract held by the Fund. In addition, where a Fund takes short
positions, or engages in sales of call options, it need not segregate assets if
it "covers" these positions. For example, where a Fund holds a short position in
a futures contract, it may cover by owning the instruments underlying the
contract. The Funds may also cover such a position by holding a call option
permitting it to purchase the same futures contract at a price no higher than
the price at which the short position was established. Where a Fund sells a call
option on a futures contract, it may cover either by entering into a long
position in the same contract at a price no higher than the strike price of the
call option or by owning the instruments underlying
B-9
<PAGE> 296
the futures contract. A Fund could also cover this position by holding a
separate call option permitting it to purchase the same futures contract at a
price no higher than the strike price of the call option sold by the Fund.
In addition, the extent to which a Fund may enter into transactions
involving futures contracts may be limited by the Internal Revenue Code's
requirements for qualification as a registered investment company and the
Trust's intention to qualify as such.
RISK FACTORS IN FUTURES TRANSACTIONS. Positions in futures contracts may be
closed out only on an exchange which provides a secondary market for such
futures. However, there can be no assurance that a liquid secondary market will
exist for any particular futures contract at any specific time. Thus, it may not
be possible to close a futures position. In the event of adverse price
movements, a Fund would continue to be required to make daily cash payments to
maintain the required margin. In such situations, if a Fund has insufficient
cash, it may have to sell portfolio securities to meet daily margin requirements
at a time when it may be disadvantageous to do so. In addition, a Fund may be
required to make delivery of the instruments underlying futures contracts it
holds. The inability to close options and futures positions also could have an
adverse impact on the ability to effectively hedge them. The Funds will minimize
the risk that they will be unable to close out a futures contract by only
entering into futures contracts which are traded on national futures exchanges
and for which there appears to be a liquid secondary market.
The risk of loss in trading futures contracts in some strategies can be
substantial, due both to the low margin deposits required, and the extremely
high degree of leverage involved in futures pricing. Because the deposit
requirements in the futures markets are less onerous than margin requirements in
the securities market, there may be increased participation by speculators in
the futures market which may also cause temporary price distortions. A
relatively small price movement in a futures contract may result in immediate
and substantial loss (as well as gain) to the investor. For example, if at the
time of purchase, 10% of the value of the futures contract is deposited as
margin, a subsequent 10% decrease in the value of the futures contract would
result in a total loss of the margin deposit, before any deduction for the
transaction costs, if the account were then closed out. A 15% decrease would
result in a loss equal to 150% of the original margin deposit if the contract
were closed out. Thus, a purchase or sale of a futures contract may result in
losses in excess of the amount invested in the contract. However, because the
futures strategies engaged in by the Funds are only for hedging purposes, the
respective Advisers and Sub-Advisers do not believe that the Funds are subject
to the risks of loss frequently associated with futures transactions. Each Fund
would presumably have sustained comparable losses if, instead of the futures
contract, it had invested in the underlying financial instrument and sold it
after the decline.
Utilization of futures transactions by a Fund does involve the risk of
imperfect or no correlation where the securities underlying futures contracts
have different maturities than the portfolio securities being hedged. It is also
possible that a Fund could both lose money on futures contracts and also
experience a decline in value of its portfolio securities. There is also
B-10
<PAGE> 297
the risk of loss by a Fund of margin deposits in the event of bankruptcy of a
broker with whom the Fund has an open position in a futures contract or related
option.
Most futures exchanges limit the amount of fluctuation permitted in
futures contract prices during a single trading day. The daily limit establishes
the maximum amount that the price of a futures contract may vary either up or
down from the previous day's settlement price at the end of a trading session.
Once the daily limit has been reached in a particular type of contract, no
trades may be made on that day at a price beyond that limit. The daily limit
governs only price movement during a particular trading day and therefore does
not limit potential losses, because the limit may prevent the liquidation of
unfavorable positions. Futures contract prices have occasionally moved to the
daily limit for several consecutive trading days with little or no trading,
thereby preventing prompt liquidation of future positions and subjecting some
futures traders to substantial losses.
OPTIONS CONTRACTS. The respective Adviser or Sub-Adviser of the Equity and Bond
Funds may use trading of options on securities or futures contracts as a hedging
device. An option on a futures contract gives the purchaser of the option the
right (but not the obligation) to take a position at a specified price (the
"striking," "strike" or "exercise" price) in the underlying futures contract or
security. A "call" option gives the purchaser the right to take a long position
in the underlying futures contract or security, and the purchaser of a "put"
option acquires the right to take a short position in the underlying futures
contract or security. The purchase price of an option is referred to as its
"premium." The seller (or "writer") of an option is obligated to take a futures
or securities position at a specified price if the option is exercised. In the
case of a call option, the seller must stand ready to take a short position in
the underlying futures contract or security at the strike price if the option is
exercised. A seller of a put option, on the other hand, stands ready to take a
long position in the underlying futures contract or security at the strike price
if the option is exercised. A "naked" option refers to an option written by a
party which does not possess the underlying futures contract or security. A
"covered" option refers to an option written by a party which does possess the
underlying position. The initial purchase (sale) of an option is an "opening
transaction." In order to close out an option position, the Fund may enter into
a "closing transaction," the sale (purchase) of an option contract on the same
security with the same exercise price and expiration date as the option contract
originally opened.
A call option on a futures contract or security is said to be
"in-the-money" if the strike price is below current market levels. Similarly, a
put option on a futures contract or security is said to be "out-of-the-money" if
the strike price is below current market levels.
Options have limited life spans, usually tied to the delivery or
settlement date of the underlying futures contract or security. Some options,
however, expire significantly in advance of such dates. An option that is
"out-of-the-money" and not offset by the time it expires becomes worthless. On
certain exchanges "in-the-money" options are automatically exercised on their
expiration date, but on others unexercised options simply become worthless after
their expiration date. Options usually trade at a premium (referred to as the
"time value" of the
B-11
<PAGE> 298
option) above their intrinsic value (the difference between the market price for
the underlying futures contract or equity security and the strike price). As an
option nears its expiration date, the market value and the intrinsic value move
into parity as the time value diminishes.
The Funds, other than the International Equity Index Fund and the Ultra
Short-Term Income Fund, will enter into such option transactions only when the
options are available on an exchange. There will be an active over-the-counter
market for such options which will establish their pricing and liquidity.
Broker/Dealers with whom the Trust will enter into such option transactions
shall have a minimum net worth of $20,000,000. Each Fund will limit the writing
of put and call options to 25% of its net assets.
Increased market volatility generally increases the value of options by
increasing the probability of favorable market swings, putting outstanding
options "in-the-money." Although purchasing options is a limited risk trading
approach, significant losses can be incurred by doing so.
Covered Calls
-------------
Each Equity Fund, Bond Fund, and the Ohio Municipal Bond Fund may write
(sell) only "covered" call options and purchase options to close out options
previously written by the Fund. In the case of each of the Funds, other than the
International Equity Index Fund and the Ultra Short-Term Income Fund, such
options must be listed on a national securities exchange. The Funds' purpose in
writing covered call options is to generate additional premium income. This
premium income will serve to enhance a Fund's total return and will reduce the
effect of any price decline of the security involved in the option. Although the
International Equity Index Fund has no current intention to write such options,
it reserves the right to do so from time to time when such activity will further
its investment objective. Covered call options will generally be written on
securities which, in the opinion of a Fund's Adviser or Sub-Adviser, are not
expected to make any major price moves in the near future but which, over the
long term, are deemed to be attractive investments for the Fund.
A call option gives the holder (buyer) the "right to purchase" a
security at a specified price (the exercise price) at any time until a certain
date (the expiration date). So long as the obligation of the writer of a call
option continues, the writer may be assigned an exercise notice by the
broker-dealer through whom such option was sold, requiring the writer to deliver
the underlying security against payment of the exercise price. This obligation
terminates upon the expiration of the call option, or such earlier time at which
the writer effects a closing purchase transaction by repurchasing an option
identical to that previously sold. To secure the writer's obligation to deliver
the underlying security in the case of a call option, subject to the rules of
the Options Clearing Corporation, a writer is required to deposit in escrow the
underlying security or other assets in accordance with such rules. The Funds
will write only covered call options. This means that a Fund will only write a
call option on a security which a Fund already owns. (In order to comply with
the requirements of the securities laws in several states, a Fund will not write
a covered call option if, as a result, the aggregate market value of all
B-12
<PAGE> 299
portfolio securities covering call options or subject to put options exceeds 25%
of the market value of the Fund's net assets.)
Fund securities on which call options may be written will be purchased
solely on the basis of investment considerations consistent with each Fund's
investment objectives. The writing of covered call options is a conservative
investment technique believed to involve relatively little risk (in contrast to
the writing of naked or uncovered options, which a Fund will not do), but
capable of enhancing the Fund's total return. When writing a covered call
option, a Fund, in return for the premium, gives up the opportunity for profit
from a price increase in the underlying security above the exercise price, but
conversely retains the risk of loss should the price of the security decline.
Unlike one who owns securities not subject to an option, a Fund has no control
over when it may be required to sell the underlying securities, since it may be
assigned an exercise notice at any time prior to the expiration of its
obligation as a writer. If a call option which a Fund has written expires, a
Fund will realize a gain in the amount of the premium; however, such gain may be
offset by a decline in the market value of the underlying security during the
option period. If the call option is exercised, a Fund will realize a gain or
loss from the sale of the underlying security. The security covering the call
will be maintained in a segregated account of the Fund's custodian. The Funds do
not consider a security covered by a call to be "pledged" as that term is used
in each Fund's policy which limits the pledging or mortgaging of its assets.
The premium received is the market value of an option. The premium each
Fund will receive from writing a call option will reflect, among other things,
the current market price of the underlying security, the relationship of the
exercise price to such market price, the historical price volatility of the
underlying security, and the length of the option period. Once the decision to
write a call option has been made, the Fund's Adviser or Sub-Adviser, in
determining whether a particular call option should be written on a particular
security, will consider the reasonableness of the anticipated premium and the
likelihood that a liquid secondary market will exist for those options. The
premium received by a Fund for writing covered call options will be recorded as
a liability in the Trust's statement of assets and liabilities. This liability
will be adjusted daily to the option's current market value, which will be the
latest sale price at the time at which the net asset value per Share of the Fund
is computed (close of the New York Stock Exchange), or, in the absence of such
sale, the latest asked price. The liability will be extinguished upon expiration
of the option, the purchase of an identical option in the closing transaction,
or delivery of the underlying security upon the exercise of the option.
Generally, a Fund, in order to avoid the exercise of an option sold by
it, will be able to cancel its obligation under the option by entering into a
closing purchase transaction, if available, unless selling (in the case of a
call option) or purchasing (in the case of a put option) the underlying
securities is determined to be in a Fund's interest. A closing purchase
transaction consists of a Fund purchasing an option having the same terms as the
option sold by a Fund, and has the effect of cancelling a Fund's position as a
seller. The premium which a Fund will pay in executing a closing purchase
transaction may be higher (or lower) than the premium received when the option
was sold, depending in large part upon the relative price of the underlying
B-13
<PAGE> 300
security at the time of each transaction. To the extent options sold by a Fund
are exercised and a Fund delivers securities to the holder of a call option, a
Fund's turnover rate will increase, which would cause a Fund to incur additional
brokerage expenses.
Closing transactions will be effected in order to realize a profit on
an outstanding call option, to prevent an underlying security from being called,
or to permit the sale of the underlying security. Furthermore, effecting a
closing transaction will permit a Fund to write another call option on the
underlying security with either a different exercise price or expiration date or
both. If a Fund desires to sell a particular security from its portfolio on
which it has written a call option it will seek to effect a closing transaction
prior to, or concurrently with, the sale of the security. There is, of course,
no assurance that a Fund will be able to effect such closing transactions at a
favorable price. If a Fund cannot enter into such a transaction, it may be
required to hold a security that it might otherwise have sold, in which case it
would continue to be at market risk on the security. This could result in higher
transaction costs. A Fund will pay transaction costs in connection with the
writing of options to close out previously written options. Such transaction
costs are normally higher than those applicable to purchases and sales of
portfolio securities.
Call options written by a Fund will normally have expiration dates of
less than nine months from the date written. The exercise price of the options
may be below, equal to, or above the current market values of the underlying
securities at the time the options are written. From time to time, a Fund may
purchase an underlying security for delivery in accordance with an exercise
notice of a call option assigned to it, rather than delivering such security
from its portfolio. In such cases, additional costs will be incurred.
A Fund will realize a profit or loss from a closing purchase
transaction if the cost of the transaction is less or more than the premium
received from the writing of the option. Because increases in the market price
of a call option will generally reflect increases in the market price of the
underlying security, any loss resulting from the repurchase of a call option is
likely to be offset in whole or in part by appreciation of the underlying
security owned by the Fund.
Puts
----
Each Bond and Equity Fund may purchase put options to protect its
portfolio holdings in an underlying security against a decline in market value.
Such hedge protection is provided during the life of the put option since the
Fund, as holder of the put option, is able to sell the underlying security at
the put exercise price regardless of any decline in the underlying security's
market price. For a put option to be profitable, the market price of the
underlying security must decline sufficiently below the exercise price to cover
the premium and transaction costs. By using put options in this manner, the Fund
will reduce any profit it might otherwise have realized from appreciation of the
underlying security by the premium paid for the put option and by transaction
cost.
B-14
<PAGE> 301
Purchasing Call Options
-----------------------
Each Bond and Equity Fund may purchase call options to hedge against an
increase in the price of securities that the Fund wants ultimately to buy. Such
hedge protection is provided during the life of the call option since the Fund,
as holder of the call option, is able to buy the underlying security at the
exercise price regardless of any increase in the underlying security's market
price. In order for a call option to be profitable, the market price of the
underlying security must rise sufficiently above the exercise price to cover the
premium and transaction costs. These costs will reduce any profit the Fund might
have realized had it bought the underlying security at the time it purchased the
call option.
Risk Factors in Options Transactions
------------------------------------
The successful use of the Bond Funds and the Equity Funds' options
strategies depends on the ability of their Adviser or, where applicable,
Sub-Adviser to forecast interest rate and market movements correctly.
When it purchases an option, a Fund runs the risk that it will lose its
entire investment in the option in a relatively short period of time, unless the
Fund exercises the option or enters into a closing sale transaction with respect
to the option during the life of the option. If the price of the underlying
security does not rise (in the case of a call) or fall (in the case of a put) to
an extent sufficient to cover the option premium and transaction costs, a Fund
will lose part or all of its investment in the option. This contrasts with an
investment by a Fund in the underlying securities, since the Fund may continue
to hold its investment in those securities notwithstanding the lack of a change
in price of those securities.
The effective use of options also depends on a Fund's ability to
terminate option positions at times when its Adviser or, where applicable,
Sub-Adviser deems it desirable to do so. Although a Fund will take an option
position only if its Adviser or, where applicable, Sub-Adviser believes there is
a liquid secondary market for the option, there is no assurance that a Fund will
be able to effect closing transactions at any particular time or at an
acceptable price.
If a secondary trading market in options were to become unavailable, a
Fund could no longer engage in closing transactions. Lack of investor interest
might adversely affect the liquidity of the market for particular options or
series of options. A marketplace may discontinue trading of a particular option
or options generally. In addition, a market could become temporarily unavailable
if unusual events, such as volume in excess of trading or clearing capability,
were to interrupt normal market operations. A marketplace may at times find it
necessary to impose restrictions on particular types of options transactions,
which may limit a Fund's ability to realize its profits or limit its losses.
Disruptions in the markets for the securities underlying options
purchased or sold by a Fund could result in losses on the options. If trading is
interrupted in an underlying security, the trading of options on that security
is normally halted as well. As a result, a Fund as
B-15
<PAGE> 302
purchaser or writer of an option will be unable to close out its positions until
option trading resumes, and it may be faced with losses if trading in the
security reopens at a substantially different price. In addition, the Options
Clearing Corporation ("OCC") or other options markets may impose exercise
restrictions. If a prohibition on exercise is imposed at the time when trading
in the option has also been halted, a Fund as purchaser or writer of an option
will be locked into its position until one of the two restrictions has been
lifted. If a prohibition on exercise remains in effect until an option owned by
a Fund has expired, the Fund could lose the entire value of its option.
Special risks are presented by internationally-traded options. Because
of time differences between the United States and the various foreign countries,
and because different holidays are observed in different countries, foreign
option markets may be open for trading during hours or on days when U.S. markets
are closed. As a result, option premiums may not reflect the current prices of
the underlying interest in the United States.
Mortgage-related Securities
---------------------------
Each of the Money Market Funds (other than the U.S. Treasury Securities
Money Market Fund), the Equity Funds (other than International Equity Index
Fund) the Bond Funds, the Municipal Bond Funds, the Institutional Money Market
Funds (other than the Treasury Money Market Fund and Treasury Only Money Market
Fund) and the Asset Allocation Fund may, consistent with its investment
objective and policies, invest in mortgage-related securities issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities. All the
aforementioned Funds will limit their investment in such securities as disclosed
in the relevant Prospectus for each Fund.
Mortgage-related securities, for purposes of the Trust's Prospectuses
and this Statement of Additional Information, represent pools of mortgage loans
assembled for sale to investors by various governmental agencies such as the
Government National Mortgage Association and government-related organizations
such as the Federal National Mortgage Association and the Federal Home Loan
Mortgage Corporation, as well as by nongovernmental issuers such as commercial
banks, savings and loan institutions, mortgage bankers, and private mortgage
insurance companies. Although certain mortgage-related securities are guaranteed
by a third party or otherwise similarly secured, the market value of the
security, which may fluctuate, is not so secured. If a Fund of the Trust
purchases a mortgage-related security at a premium, that portion may be lost if
there is a decline in the market value of the security whether resulting from
changes in interest rates or prepayments in the underlying mortgage collateral.
As with other interest-bearing securities, the prices of such securities are
inversely affected by changes in interest rates. However, though the value of a
mortgage-related security may decline when interest rates rise, the converse is
not necessarily true since in periods of declining interest rates the mortgages
underlying the securities are prone to prepayment. For this and other reasons, a
mortgage-related security's stated maturity may be shortened by unscheduled
prepayments on the underlying mortgages and, therefore, it is not possible to
predict accurately the security's return to the Trust's Funds. In addition,
regular payments received in respect of mortgage-
B-16
<PAGE> 303
related securities include both interest and principal. No assurance can be
given as to the return the Funds of the Trust will receive when these amounts
are reinvested.
The market value of the Fund's adjustable rate Mortgage-Backed
Securities may be adversely affected if interest rates increase faster than the
rates of interest payable on such securities or by the adjustable rate mortgage
loans underlying such securities. Furthermore, adjustable rate Mortgage-Backed
Securities or the mortgage loans underlying such securities may contain
provisions limiting the amount by which rates may be adjusted upward and
downward and may limit the amount by which monthly payments may be increased or
decreased to accommodate upward and downward adjustments in interest rates.
Certain adjustable rate mortgage loans may provide for periodic
adjustments of scheduled payments in order to amortize fully the mortgage loan
by its stated maturity. Other adjustable rate mortgage loans may permit their
stated maturity to be extended or shortened in accordance with the portion of
each payment that is applied to interest as affected by the periodic interest
rate adjustments.
Although having less risk of decline during periods of rising interest
rates, adjustable rate Mortgage-Backed Securities have less potential for
capital appreciation than fixed rate Mortgage-Backed Securities because their
coupon rates will decline in response to market interest rate declines. The
market value of fixed rate Mortgage-Backed Securities may be adversely affected
as a result of increases in interest rates and, because of the risk of
unscheduled principal prepayments, may benefit less than other fixed rate
securities of similar maturity from declining interest rates. Finally, to the
extent Mortgage-Backed Securities are purchased at a premium, mortgage
foreclosures and unscheduled principal prepayments may result in some loss of
the Fund's principal investment to the extent of the premium paid. On the other
hand, if such securities are purchased at a discount, both a scheduled payment
of principal and an unscheduled prepayment of principal will increase current
and total returns and will accelerate the recognition of income.
The Bond and Asset Allocation Funds may invest in mortgage-related
securities which are collateralized mortgage obligations structured on pools of
mortgage pass-through certificates or mortgage loans. Collateralized mortgage
obligations will be purchased only if rated in the three highest rating
categories by a nationally recognized rating organization such as Moody's or
S&P.
There are a number of important differences among the agencies and
instrumentalities of the U.S. government that issue mortgage-related securities
and among the securities that they issue. Mortgage-related securities issued by
the Government National Mortgage Association ("Ginnie Mae") include Ginnie Mae
Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates which are guaranteed as to the timely payment
of principal and interest by Ginnie Mae and such guarantee is backed by the full
faith and credit of the United States. Ginnie Mae is a wholly-owned U.S.
government corporation within the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Ginnie Mae certificates also are supported by the authority of Ginnie Mae to
borrow funds from the
B-17
<PAGE> 304
U.S. Treasury to make payments under its guarantee. Mortgage-related securities
issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association ("Fannie Mae") include
Fannie Mae Guaranteed Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates which are solely the
obligations of Fannie Mae and are not backed by or entitled to the full faith
and credit of the United States. Fannie Mae is a government-sponsored
organization owned entirely by private stock-holders. Fannie Mae Certificates
are guaranteed as to timely payment of the principal and interest by Fannie Mae.
Mortgage-related securities issued by the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation
("Freddie Mac") include Freddie Mac Mortgage Participation Certificates. Freddie
Mac is a corporate instrumentality of the United States, created pursuant to an
Act of Congress, which is owned entirely by Federal Home Loan Banks. Freddie Mac
Certificates are not guaranteed by the United States or by any Federal Home Loan
Banks and do not constitute a debt or obligation of the United States or of any
Federal Home Loan Bank. Freddie Mac Certificates entitle the holder to timely
payment of interest, which is guaranteed by Freddie Mac. Freddie Mac guarantees
either ultimate collection or timely payment of all principal payments on the
underlying mortgage loans. When Freddie Mac does not guarantee timely payment of
principal, Freddie Mac may remit the amount due on account of its guarantee of
ultimate payment of principal at any time after default on an underlying
mortgage, but in no event later than one year after it becomes payable.
Yield, Market Value and Risk Considerations of Mortgage-Backed
--------------------------------------------------------------
Securities
----------
The Bond Funds and the Asset Allocation Fund may invest in certain
Mortgage-Backed Securities, such as Interest Only Stripped Mortgage-Backed
Securities, that are extremely sensitive to changes in prepayments and interest
rates. Even though such securities have been guaranteed by an agency or
instrumentality of the U.S. government, under certain interest rate or
prepayment rate scenarios, the Funds may fail to fully recover their investment
in such securities.
The yield characteristics of Mortgage-Backed Securities differ from
those of traditional fixed income securities. The major differences typically
include more frequent interest and principal payments, usually monthly, and the
possibility that prepayments of principal may be made at any time. Prepayment
rates are influenced by changes in current interest rates and a variety of
economic, geographic, social and other factors and cannot be predicted with
certainty. As with fixed rate mortgage loans, adjustable rate mortgage loans may
be subject to a greater prepayment rate in a declining interest rate
environment. The yields to maturity of the Mortgage-Backed Securities in which
the Trust invests will be affected by the actual rate of payment (including
prepayments) of principal of the underlying mortgage loans. The mortgage loans
underlying such securities generally may be prepaid at any time without penalty.
In a fluctuating interest rate environment, a predominant factor affecting the
prepayment rate on a pool of mortgage loans is the difference between the
interest rates on the mortgage loans and prevailing mortgage loan interest rates
(giving consideration to the cost of any refinancing). In general, if mortgage
loan interest rates fall sufficiently below the interest rates on fixed rate
mortgage loans underlying mortgage pass-through securities, the rate of
prepayment would be expected to increase. Conversely, if mortgage loan interest
rates rise above the interest rates
B-18
<PAGE> 305
on the fixed rate mortgage loans underlying the mortgage pass-through
securities, the rate of prepayment may be expected to decrease.
In general, changes in both prepayment rates and interest rates will
change the yield on Mortgage-Backed Securities. The rate of principal
prepayments with respect to adjustable rate mortgage loans ("ARMs") has
fluctuated in recent years. As is the case with fixed mortgage loans, ARMs may
be subject to a greater rate of principal prepayments in a declining interest
rate environment. For example, if prevailing interest rates fall significantly,
ARMs could be subject to higher prepayment rates than if prevailing interest
rates remain constant because the availability of fixed rate mortgage loans at
competitive interest rates may encourage mortgagors to refinance their ARMs to
"lock-in" a lower fixed interest rate. Conversely, if prevailing interest rates
rise significantly, ARMs may prepay at lower rates than if prevailing rates
remain at or below those in effect at the time such ARMs were originated. As
with fixed rate mortgages, there can be no certainty as to the rate of
prepayments on the ARMs in either stable or changing interest rate environments.
In addition, there can be no certainty as to whether increases in the principal
balances of the ARMs due to the addition of deferred interest may result in a
default rate higher than that on ARMs that do not provide for negative
amortization. Other factors affecting prepayment of ARMs include changes in
mortgagors' housing needs, job transfers, unemployment, mortgagors' net equity
in the mortgage properties and servicing decisions.
Foreign Investments
-------------------
The International Equity Index Fund will invest primarily in, and the
Prime Money Market Fund, the Institutional Prime Money Market Fund, the Asset
Allocation Fund, the remaining Equity Funds (other than the Equity Index Fund),
the Income Bond Fund, the Limited Volatility Bond Fund, the Intermediate Bond
Fund, the Income Fund and the Ultra Short-Term Income Fund, subject to their
respective investment objectives and policies, may also invest in certain
obligations or securities of foreign issuers. Possible investments include
equity securities of foreign entities, obligations of foreign branches of U.S.
banks and of foreign banks, including, without limitation, European Certificates
of Deposit, European Time Deposits, European Banker's Acceptances, Canadian Time
Deposits and Yankee Certificates of Deposits, and investments in Canadian
Commercial Paper, foreign securities and Europaper (as those terms are defined
in the relevant Prospectuses of the Trust). Securities of foreign issuers may
include sponsored and unsponsored American Depository Receipts ("ADRs").
Sponsored ADRs are listed on the New York Stock Exchange; unsponsored ADRs are
not. Therefore, there may be less information available about the issuers of
unsponsored ADRs than the issuers of sponsored ADRs. Unsponsored ADRs are
restricted securities. These instruments may subject a Fund to investment risks
that differ in some respects from those related to investments in obligations of
U.S. domestic issuers. Such risks include future adverse political and economic
developments, the possible imposition of withholding taxes on interest or other
income, possible seizure, nationalization or expropriation of foreign deposits,
the possible establishment of exchange controls or taxation at the source,
greater fluctuations in value due to changes in exchange rates, or the adoption
of other foreign governmental restrictions which might adversely
B-19
<PAGE> 306
affect the payment of principal and interest on such obligations. Such
investments may also entail higher custodial fees and sales commissions than
domestic investments. Foreign issuers of securities or obligations are often
subject to accounting treatment and engage in business practices different from
those respecting domestic issuers of similar securities or obligations. Foreign
branches of U.S. banks and foreign banks may be subject to less stringent
reserve requirements than those applicable to domestic branches of U.S. banks.
Investments in all types of foreign obligations or securities will not exceed
25% of the net assets of the Asset Allocation Fund, the Equity Funds (with the
exception of the International Equity Index Fund) and the Income Bond and
Limited Volatility Bond Funds.
By investing in foreign securities, the International Equity Index Fund
attempts to take advantage of differences between both economic trends and the
performance of securities markets in the various countries, regions and
geographic areas as prescribed by the Fund's investment objective and policies.
During certain periods the investment return on securities in some or all
countries may exceed the return on similar investments in the United States,
while at other times the investment return may be less than that on similar U.S.
securities. Shares of the International Equity Index Fund, when included in
appropriate amounts in a portfolio otherwise consisting of domestic securities,
will provide a source of increased diversification. The International Equity
Index Fund itself seeks increased diversification by combining securities from
various countries and geographic areas that offer different investment
opportunities and are affected by different economic trends. The international
investments of the International Equity Index Fund may reduce the effect that
events in any one country or geographic area will have on its investment
holdings. Of course, negative movement by one of a Fund's investments in one
foreign market represented in its portfolio may offset potential gains from the
Fund's investments in another country's markets.
PERCS*
------
The Equity Funds may invest in Preferred Equity Redemption Cumulative
Stock ("PERCS") which is a form of convertible preferred stock that actually has
more of an equity component than it does fixed income characteristics. These
instruments permit companies to raise capital via a surrogate for common equity.
PERCS are preferred stock which convert to common stock after a specified period
of time, usually three years, and are considered the equivalent of equity by the
ratings agencies. Issuers pay holders a substantially higher dividend yield than
that on the underlying common, and in exchange, the holder's appreciation is
capped, usually at about 30 percent. PERCS are callable at any time. The PERC is
mandatorily convertible into common stock, but is callable at any time at an
initial call price that reflects a substantial premium to the stock's issue
price. PERCS offer a higher dividend than that available on the common stock,
but in exchange the investors agree to the company placing a cap on the
potential price appreciation. The call price declines daily in an amount that
reflects
- --------

is in no way affiliated with The One Group(R).
B-20
<PAGE> 307
the incremental dividend that holders enjoy. PERCS are listed on an exchange
where the common stock is listed.
When-Issued Securities
----------------------
As discussed in the Prospectuses, each Fund, except the Treasury Money
Market Fund and the Funds of Funds, may purchase securities on a "when-issued"
basis. When a Fund agrees to purchase securities, the Fund's custodian will set
aside cash or liquid portfolio securities equal to the amount of the commitment
in a separate account. Normally, the custodian will set aside portfolio
securities to satisfy a purchase commitment. In such a case, a Fund may be
required subsequently to place additional assets in the separate account in
order to assure that the value of the account remains equal to the amount of the
Fund's commitment. It may be expected that a Fund's net assets will fluctuate to
a greater degree when it sets aside portfolio securities to cover such purchase
commitments than when it sets aside cash. No Fund intends to purchase
"when-issued" securities for speculative purposes but only in furtherance of its
investment objective. Because a Fund will set aside cash or liquid portfolio
securities to satisfy its purchase commitments in the manner described, the
Fund's liquidity and the ability of the Adviser and Sub-Adviser to manage the
Fund might, as described in the Prospectuses, be affected in the event its
commitments to purchase when-issued securities ever exceeded 40% of the value of
its assets.
When a Fund engages in "when-issued" transactions, it relies on the
seller to consummate the trade. Failure of the seller to do so may result in the
Fund's incurring a loss or missing the opportunity to obtain a price considered
to be advantageous.
Securities Lending
------------------
Each of the Funds, except the Funds of Funds, may lend up to 33% of its
portfolio securities to broker-dealers, banks or institutional borrowers of
securities. A Fund must receive a minimum of 100% collateral in the form of
cash, U.S. government securities, Shares of an investment trust or Shares of an
investment company or any combination of such cash and securities. This
collateral must be valued daily and should the market value of the loaned
securities increase, the borrower must furnish additional collateral to the
Fund. During the time portfolio securities are on loan, the borrower will pay
the Fund any dividends or interest paid on such securities. Loans will be
subject to termination by a Fund or the borrower at any time and are therefore
not considered to be illiquid investments. While a Fund will not have the right
to vote securities on loan, it intends to terminate the loan and regain the
right to vote if that is considered important with respect to the investment. A
Fund will only enter into loan arrangements with broker-dealers, banks or other
institutions which the Fund's Adviser has determined are creditworthy under
guidelines established by the Trust's Board of Trustees and when, in the
judgement of the Adviser, the consideration that can be earned currently from
such securities loans justifies the attendant risk.
B-21

Index Investing by the Equity Index and International Equity Index
------------------------------------------------------------------
Funds
-----
It is anticipated that the indexing approach that will be employed by
the Equity Index Fund will be an effective method of substantially duplicating
percentage changes in the S&P 500 Index (the "Index"). It is a reasonable
expectation that there will be a close correlation between the Fund's
performance and that of the Index in both rising and falling markets. The Fund
will attempt to achieve a correlation between the performance of its portfolio
and that of the Index of at least 0.95, without taking into account expenses. A
correlation of 1.00 would indicate perfect correlation, which would be achieved
when the Fund's net asset value, including the value of its dividend and capital
gains distributions, increases or decreases in exact proportion to changes in
the Index. The Fund's ability to correlate its performance with the Index,
however, may be affected by, among other things, changes in securities markets,
the manner in which the Index is calculated by Standard & Poor's Corporation
("S&P") and the timing of purchases and redemptions. In the future, the Trustees
of the Trust, subject to the approval of Shareholders, may select another index
if such a standard of comparison is deemed to be more representative of the
performance of common stocks.
S&P chooses the stocks to be included in the Index largely on a
statistical basis. Inclusion of a stock in the Index in no way implies an
opinion by S&P as to its attractiveness as an investment. The Index is
determined, composed and calculated by S&P without regard to the Equity Index
Fund. S&P is neither a sponsor of, nor in any way affiliated with the Equity
Index Fund, and S&P makes no representation or warranty, expressed or implied on
the advisability of investing in the Equity Index Fund or as to the ability of
the Index to track general stock market performance, and S&P disclaims all
warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose or use with
respect to the Index or any data included therein. "Standard and Poor's 500" is
a service mark of S&P.
The weightings of stocks in the Index are based on each stock's
relative total market value, i.e., market price per share times the number of
Shares outstanding. Because of this weighting, approximately 50% of the Index is
currently composed of the 50 largest companies in the Index, and the Index
currently represents over 65% of the market value of all U.S. common stocks
listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Typically, companies included in the
Index are the largest and most dominant firms in their respective industries.
The Adviser generally selects stocks for the Equity Index Fund in the
order of their weightings in the Index beginning with the heaviest weighted
stocks. The percentage of the Equity Index Fund's assets to be invested in each
stock is approximately the same as the percentage it represents in the Index. No
attempt is made to manage the Equity Index Fund in the traditional sense using
economic, financial and market analysis. The Equity Index Fund is managed using
a computer program to determine which stocks are to be purchased and sold to
replicate the Index to the extent feasible. From time to time, administrative
adjustments may be made in the Fund because of changes in the composition of the
Index, but such changes should be infrequent.
B-22
<PAGE> 309
It is anticipated that the indexing approach that will be employed by
the International Equity Index Fund will be an effective method of substantially
duplicating percentage changes in the GDP weighted MSCI EAFE Index (the
"International Index"). The Fund will attempt to achieve a correlation between
the performance of its portfolio and that of the International Index of at least
0.95, without taking into account expenses. It is a reasonable expectation that
there will be a close correlation between the Fund's performance and that of the
International Index in both rising and falling markets. A correlation of 1.00
would indicate perfect correlation, which would be achieved when the Fund's net
asset value, including the value of its dividend and capital gains
distributions, increases or decreases in exact proportion to changes in the
International Index. The Fund's ability to correlate its performance with the
International Index, however, may be affected by, among other things, changes in
securities markets, the manner in which the International Index is calculated by
Morgan Stanley International ("MSCI") and the timing of purchases and
redemptions. In the future, the Trustees of the Trust, subject to the approval
of Shareholders, may select another index if such a standard of comparison is
deemed to be more representative of the performance of common stocks.
MSCI computes and publishes the International Index. MSCI also computes
the country weights which are established based on annual GDP data. Gross
Domestic Product is defined as a country's Gross National Product, or total
output of goods and services, adjusted by the following two factors: net labor
income (labor income of domestic residents working abroad less labor income of
foreigners working domestically) plus net interest income (interest income
earned from foreign investments less interest income earned from domestic
investments by foreigners). Country weights are thus established in proportion
to the size of their economies as measured by Gross Domestic Product, which
results in a more uniform distribution of capital across the EAFE markets than
if capitalization weights were used as the basis. The country weights within the
International Index are systematically rebalanced annually to the most recent
GDP weights.
MSCI chooses the stocks to be included in the International Index
largely on a statistical basis. Inclusion of a stock in the International Index
in no way implies an opinion by MSCI as to its attractiveness as an investment.
The International Index is determined, composed and calculated by MSCI without
regard to the International Equity Index Fund. MSCI is neither a sponsor of, nor
in any way affiliated with the International Equity Index Fund, and MSCI makes
no representation or warranty, expressed or implied on the advisability of
investing in the International Equity Index Fund or as to the ability of the
International Index to track general stock market performance, and MSCI
disclaims all warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose
or use with respect to the International Index or any data included therein.
"MSCI EAFE Index" is a service mark of MSCI.
Foreign Currency Transactions
-----------------------------
The Adviser or Sub-Adviser of the International Equity Index Fund may,
if it so chooses, engage in Foreign Currency Transactions, as discussed below.
B-23
<PAGE> 310
TRANSACTION HEDGING. When a Fund engages in transaction hedging, it enters into
foreign currency transactions with respect to specific receivables or payables
of the Fund generally arising in connection with the purchase or sale of its
portfolio securities. The International Equity Index Fund will engage in
transaction hedging when it desires to "lock in" the U.S. dollar price of a
security it has agreed to purchase or sell, or the U.S. dollar equivalent of a
dividend or interest payment in a foreign currency. By transaction hedging, the
International Equity Index Fund will attempt to protect itself against a
possible loss resulting from an adverse change in the relationship between the
U.S. dollar and the applicable foreign currency during the period between the
date on which the security is purchased or sold, or on which the dividend or
interest payment is declared, and the date on which such payments are made or
received.
The International Equity Index Fund may purchase or sell a foreign
currency on a spot (or cash) basis at the prevailing spot rate in connection
with the settlement of transactions in portfolio securities denominated in that
foreign currency. The Fund may also enter into contracts to purchase or sell
foreign currencies at a future date ("forward contracts"). Although there is no
current intention to do so, the International Equity Index Fund reserves the
right to purchase and sell foreign currency futures contracts traded in the
United States and subject to regulation by the CFTC.
For transaction hedging purposes the International Equity Index Fund
may also purchase U.S. exchange-listed call and put options on foreign currency
futures contracts and on foreign currencies. A put option on a futures contract
gives the Fund the right to assume a short position in the futures contract
until expiration of the option. A put option on currency gives the Fund the
right to sell a currency at an exercise price until the expiration of the
option. A call option on a futures contract gives the Fund the right to assume a
long position in the futures contract until the expiration of the option. A call
option on currency gives the Fund the right to purchase a currency at the
exercise price until the expiration of the option.
POSITION HEDGING. When it engages in position hedging, the International Equity
Index Fund enters into foreign currency exchange transactions to protect against
a decline in the values of the foreign currencies in which its portfolios
securities are denominated (or an increase in the value of currency for
securities which the Adviser or Sub-Adviser expects to purchase, when the Fund
holds cash or short-term investments). In connection with the position hedging,
the Fund may purchase or sell foreign currency forward contracts or foreign
currency on a spot basis. The International Equity Index Fund may purchase U.S.
exchange-listed put or call options on foreign currency and foreign currency
futures contracts and buy or sell foreign currency futures contracts traded in
the United States and subject to regulation by the CFTC, although the
International Equity Index Fund has no current intention to do so.
The precise matching of the amounts of foreign currency exchange
transactions and the value of the portfolio securities involved will not
generally be possible since the future value of such securities in foreign
currencies will change as a consequence of market movements in the value of
those securities between the dates the currency exchange transactions are
entered into and the dates they mature.
B-24
<PAGE> 311
It is impossible to forecast with precision the market value of
portfolio securities at the expiration or maturity of a forward contract or
futures contract. Accordingly, it may be necessary for the Fund to purchase
additional foreign currency on the spot market (and bear the expense of such
purchase) if the market value of the security or securities being hedged is less
than the amount of foreign currency the Fund is obligated to deliver and if a
decision is made to sell the security or securities and make delivery of the
foreign currency. Conversely, it may be necessary to sell on the spot market
some of the foreign currency received upon the sale of the portfolio security or
securities if the market value of such security or securities exceeds the amount
of foreign currency the Fund is obligated to deliver.
Although the Fund has no current intention to do so, the International
Equity Index Fund may write covered call options on up to 100% of the currencies
in its portfolio to offset some of the costs of hedging against fluctuations in
currency exchange rates.
Transaction and position hedging do not eliminate fluctuations in the
underlying prices of the securities which the International Equity Index Fund
owns or expects to purchase or sell. They simply establish a rate of exchange
which one can achieve at some future point in time. Additionally, although these
techniques tend to minimize the risk of loss due to a decline in the value of
the hedged currency, they tend to limit any potential gain which might result
from the increase in the value of such currency.
CURRENCY FORWARD AND FUTURES CONTRACTS. A forward foreign currency exchange
contract involves an obligation to purchase or sell a specific currency at a
future date, which may be any fixed number of days from the date of the contract
as agreed by the parties, at a price set at the time of the contract. In the
case of a cancellable forward contract, the holder has the unilateral right to
cancel the contract at maturity by paying a specified fee. The contracts are
traded in the interbank market conducted directly between currency traders
(usually large commercial banks) and their customers. A forward contract
generally has no deposit requirement, and no commissions are charged at any
stage for trades. A foreign currency futures contract is a standardized contract
for the future delivery of a specified amount of a foreign currency at a future
date at a price set at the time of the contract. Foreign currency futures
contracts traded in the United States are designed by and traded on exchanges
regulated by the CFTC, such as the New York Mercantile Exchange. The
International Equity Index Fund would enter into foreign currency futures
contracts solely for bona fide hedging or other appropriate risk management
purposes as defined in CFTC regulations.
Forward foreign currency exchange contracts differ from foreign
currency futures contracts in certain respects. For example, the maturity date
of a forward contract may be any fixed number of days from the date of the
contract agreed upon by the parties, rather than a predetermined date in a given
month. Forward contracts may be in any amounts agreed upon by the parties rather
than predetermined amounts. Also, forward foreign exchange contracts are entered
into directly between currency traders so that no intermediary is required. A
forward contract generally requires no margin or other deposit.
B-25
<PAGE> 312
At the maturity of a forward or futures contract, the Fund may either
accept or make delivery of the currency specified in the contract, or at or
prior to maturity enter into a closing transaction involving the purchase or
sale of an offsetting contract. Closing transactions with respect to forward
contracts are usually effected with the currency trader who is a party to the
original forward contract. Closing transactions with respect to futures
contracts are effected on a commodities exchange; a clearing corporation
associated with the exchange assumes responsibility for closing out such
contracts.
Positions in the foreign currency futures contracts may be closed out
only on an exchange or board of trade which provides a secondary market in such
contracts. Although the International Equity Index Fund intends to purchase or
sell foreign currency futures contracts only on exchanges or boards of trade
where there appears to be an active secondary market, there is no assurance that
a secondary market on an exchange or board of trade will exist for any
particular contract or at any particular time. In such event, it may not be
possible to close a futures position and, in the event of adverse price
movements, the Fund would continue to be required to make daily cash payments of
variation margin.
General Characteristics of Currency Futures Contracts
-----------------------------------------------------
When a Fund purchases or sells a futures contract, it is required to
deposit with its custodian an amount of cash or U.S. Treasury bills known as
"initial margin." The nature of initial margin is different from that of margin
in security transactions in that it does not involve borrowing money to finance
transactions. Rather, initial margin is similar to a performance bond or good
faith deposit that is returned to the Fund upon termination of the contract,
assuming the Fund satisfies its contractual obligation.
Subsequent payments to and from the broker occur on a daily basis in a
process known as "marking to market." These payments are called "variation
margin" and are made as the value of the underlying futures contract fluctuates.
For example, when a Fund sells a futures contract and the price of the
underlying currency rises above the delivery price, the Fund's position declines
in value. The Fund then pays a broker a variation margin payment equal to the
difference between the delivery price of the futures contract and the market
price of the currency underlying the futures contract. Conversely, if the price
of the underlying currency falls below the delivery price of the contract, the
Fund's futures position increases in value. The broker then must make a
variation margin payment equal to the difference between the delivery price of
the futures contract and the market price of the currency underlying the futures
contract.
When a Fund terminates a position in a futures contract, a final
determination of variation margin is made, additional cash is paid by or to the
Fund, and the Fund realizes a loss or gain. Such closing transactions involve
additional commission costs.
In addition to the margin requirements discussed above, transactions in
currency futures contracts may involve the segregation of funds pursuant to
requirements imposed by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under those
requirements, where a Fund has a long
B-26
<PAGE> 313
position in a futures or forward contract, it may be required to establish a
segregated account (not with a futures commission merchant or broker) containing
cash or certain liquid assets equal to the purchase price of the contract (less
any margin on deposit). For a short position in futures or forward contracts
held by a Fund, those requirements may mandate the establishment of a segregated
account (not with a futures commission merchant or broker) with cash or certain
liquid assets that, when added to the amounts deposited as margin, equal the
market value of the instruments or currency underlying the futures or forward
contracts (but are not less than the price at which the short positions were
established). However, segregation of assets is not required if the Fund
"covers" a long position. For example, instead of segregating assets, a Fund,
when holding a long position in a futures or forward contract, could purchase a
put option on the same futures or forward contract with a strike price as high
or higher than the price of the contract held by the Fund. In addition, where a
Fund takes short positions, or engages in sales of call options, it need not
segregate assets if it "covers" these positions. For example, where a Fund holds
a short position in a futures or forward contract, it may cover by owning the
instruments or currency underlying the contract. A Fund may also cover such a
position by holding a call option permitting it to purchase the same futures or
forward contract at a price no higher than the price at which the short position
was established. Where a Fund sells a call option on a futures or forward
contract, it may cover either by entering into a long position in the same
contract at a price no higher than the strike price of the call option or by
owning the instruments or currency underlying the futures or forward contract.
The Fund could also cover this position by holding a separate call option
permitting it to purchase the same futures or forward contract at a price no
higher than the strike price of the call option sold by the Fund.
FOREIGN CURRENCY OPTIONS. The International Equity Index Fund may
purchase U.S. exchange-listed call and put options on foreign currencies. Such
options on foreign currencies operate similarly to options on securities.
Options on foreign currencies are affected by all of those factors which
influence foreign exchange rates and investments generally.
The value of a foreign currency option is dependent upon the value of
the foreign currency and the U.S. dollar, and may have no relationship to the
investment merits of a foreign security. Because foreign currency transactions
occurring in the interbank market involve substantially larger amounts than
those that may be involved in the use of foreign currency options, investors may
be disadvantaged by having to deal in an odd lot market (generally consisting of
transactions of less than $1 million) for the underlying foreign currencies at
prices that are less favorable than for round lots.
There is no systematic reporting of last sale information for foreign
currencies and there is no regulatory requirement that quotations available
through dealer or other market sources be firm or revised on a timely basis.
Available quotation information is generally representative of very large
transactions in the interbank market and thus may not reflect relatively smaller
transactions (less than $1 million) where rates may be less favorable. The
interbank market in foreign currencies is a global, around-the-clock market. To
the extent that the U.S. options markets are closed while the markets for the
underlying currencies remain open, significant price
B-27
<PAGE> 314
and rate movements may take place in the underlying markets that cannot be
reflected in the options market.
FOREIGN CURRENCY CONVERSION. Although foreign exchange dealers do not
charge a fee for currency conversion, they do realize a profit based on the
difference (the "spread") between prices at which they are buying and selling
various currencies. Thus, a dealer may offer to sell a foreign currency to a
Fund at one rate, while offering a lesser rate of exchange should the Fund
desire to resell that currency to the dealer.
Variable and Floating Rate Notes
--------------------------------
Variable amount master demand notes, in which the Prime Money Market
Fund, the Tax Exempt Money Market Fund, the Institutional Prime Money Market
Fund, the Bond Funds, and the Equity Funds may invest, are unsecured demand
notes that permit the indebtedness thereunder to vary and provide for periodic
adjustments in the interest rate according to the terms of the instrument.
Because master demand notes are direct lending arrangements between a Fund and
the issuer, they are not normally traded. Although there is no secondary market
in the notes, a Fund may demand payment of principal and accrued interest at any
time. While the notes are not typically rated by credit rating agencies, issuers
of variable amount master demand notes (which are normally manufacturing,
retail, financial, and other business concerns) must satisfy the same criteria
as set forth above for commercial paper. Each Fund's Adviser or Sub-Adviser will
consider the earning power, cash flow, and other liquidity ratios of the issuers
of such notes and will continuously monitor their financial status and ability
to meet payment on demand. In determining average weighted portfolio maturity, a
variable amount master demand note will be deemed to have a maturity equal to
the period of time remaining until the principal amount can be recovered from
the issuer through demand.
As described in the Prospectuses of the Bond Funds, the Equity Funds,
the Tax-Free Funds, the Ohio Municipal Money Market, the Municipal Money Market,
the Institutional Prime Money Market and the Government Money Market Funds,
subject to their investment objective policies and restrictions, each such Fund
(other than the Equity Index Fund) may acquire variable and floating rate notes.
A variable rate note is one whose terms provide for the adjustment of its
interest rate on set dates and which, upon such adjustment, can reasonably be
expected to have a market value that approximates its par value. A floating rate
note is one whose terms provide for the adjustment of its interest rate whenever
a specified interest rate changes and which, at any time, can reasonably be
expected to have a market value that approximates its par value. Such notes are
frequently not rated by credit rating agencies; however, unrated variable and
floating rate notes purchased by a Fund will be determined by the Fund's Adviser
under guidelines established by the Trust's Board of Trustees to be of
comparable quality at the time of purchase to rated instruments eligible for
purchase under the Fund's investment policies. In making such determinations,
the Adviser will consider the earning power, cash flow and other liquidity
ratios of the issuers of such notes (such issuers include financial,
merchandising, bank holding and other companies) and will continuously monitor
their financial condition. Although there may be no active secondary market with
B-28
<PAGE> 315
respect to a particular variable or floating rate note purchased by a Fund, the
Fund may re-sell the note at any time to a third party. The absence of such an
active secondary market, however, could make it difficult for the Fund to
dispose of the variable or floating rate note involved in the event the issuer
of the note defaulted on its payment obligations, and the Fund could, for this
or other reasons, suffer a loss to the extent of the default. Variable or
floating rate notes may be secured by bank letters of credit.
Variable or floating rate notes with stated maturities of more than 397
days may, under the Securities and Exchange Commission's amortized cost rule,
Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act, be deemed to have shorter maturities as follows:
(1) A note that is issued or guaranteed by the United States government
or any agency thereof which has a variable rate of interest readjusted no less
frequently than 397 days will be deemed by a Fund to have a maturity equal to
the period remaining until the next readjustment of the interest rate.
(2) A variable rate note, the principal amount of which is scheduled on
the face of the instrument to be paid in one year or less, will be deemed by a
Fund to have a maturity equal to the period remaining until the next
readjustment of the interest rate.
(3) A variable rate note that is subject to a demand feature will be
deemed by a Fund to have a maturity equal to the longer of the period remaining
until the next readjustment of the interest rate or the period remaining until
the principal amount can be recovered through demand.
(4) A floating rate note that is subject to a demand feature will be
deemed by a Fund to have a maturity equal to the period remaining until the
principal amount can be recovered through demand.
As used above, a note is "subject to a demand feature" where the Fund
is entitled to receive the principal amount of the note either at any time on no
more than thirty days' notice or at specified intervals not exceeding one year
and upon no more than 30 days notice.
Variable and floating rate notes for which no readily available market
exists will be purchased in an amount which, together with securities with legal
or contractual restrictions on resale or for which no readily available market
exists (including repurchase agreements providing for settlement more than seven
days after notice), exceeds 10% (with respect to the Money Market and
Institutional Money Market Funds) or 15% (with respect to all Funds other than
the Money Market and Institutional Money Market Funds) of the Fund's net assets
only if such notes are subject to a demand feature that will permit the Fund to
demand payment of the principal within seven days after demand by the Fund. If
not rated, such instruments must be found by the Fund's Adviser, under
guidelines established by the Trust's Board of Trustees, to be of comparable
quality to instruments that are rated high quality. A rating may be relied upon
only if it is provided by a nationally recognized statistical rating
organization that is not affiliated with
B-29
<PAGE> 316
the issuer or guarantor of the instruments. For a description of the rating
symbols of S&P, Moody's, and Fitch used in this paragraph, see the Appendix. The
above Funds may also invest in Canadian Commercial Paper which is commercial
paper issued by a Canadian corporation or a Canadian counterpart of a U.S.
corporation and in Europaper which is U.S. dollar denominated commercial paper
of a foreign issuer.
Municipal Securities
--------------------
As a matter of fundamental policy, under normal market conditions, at
least 80% of the total assets of each of the Municipal Money Market Fund, the
Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund, the Municipal Income Fund, the Intermediate
Tax-Free Bond Fund, the Ohio Municipal Bond Fund, the Texas Tax-Free Bond Fund,
the Kentucky Municipal Bond Fund, the Louisiana Municipal Bond Fund, the West
Virginia Tax-Free Bond Fund, the Arizona Tax-Free Bond Fund, and the Tax Exempt
Money Market Fund will be invested in Municipal Securities. Each of the Prime
Money Market, Asset Allocation, Income Bond, Limited Volatility Bond,
Intermediate Bond, Ultra Short-Term Income, Income and Government Bond Funds may
also invest in Municipal Securities if the Adviser determines that such
Municipal Securities offer attractive yields. Municipal Securities are issued to
obtain funds for various public purposes, including the construction of a wide
range of public facilities such as bridges, highways, roads, schools, water and
sewer works, and other utilities. Other public purposes for which Municipal
Securities may be issued include refunding outstanding obligations, obtaining
funds for general operating expenses and obtaining funds to lend to other public
institutions and facilities. In addition, certain debt obligations known as
"private activity bonds" may be issued by or on behalf of municipalities and
public authorities to obtain funds to provide certain water, sewage and solid
waste facilities, qualified residential rental projects, certain local electric,
gas and other heating or cooling facilities, qualified hazardous waste
facilities, high-speed intercity rail facilities, governmentally-owned airports,
docks and wharves and mass commuting facilities, certain qualified mortgages,
student loan and redevelopment bonds and bonds used for certain organizations
exempt from federal income taxation. Certain debt obligations known as
"industrial development bonds" under prior federal tax law may have been issued
by or on behalf of public authorities to obtain funds to provide certain
privately operated housing facilities, sports facilities, industrial parks,
convention or trade show facilities, airport, mass transit, port or parking
facilities, air or water pollution control facilities, sewage or solid waste
disposal facilities, and certain facilities for water supply. Other private
activity bonds and industrial development bonds issued to fund the construction,
improvement, equipment or repair of privately-operated industrial, distribution,
research, or commercial facilities may also be Municipal Securities, but the
size of such issues is limited under current and prior federal tax law. The
aggregate amount of most private activity bonds and industrial development bonds
is limited (except in the case of certain types of facilities) under federal tax
law by an annual "volume cap." The volume cap limits the annual aggregate
principal amount of such obligations issued by or on behalf of all governmental
instrumentalities in the state. The Tax-Free Funds may not be a desirable
investment for "substantial users" of facilities financed by private activity
bonds or industrial development bonds or for "related persons" of substantial
users.
B-30
<PAGE> 317
Private activity bonds that are issued by or on behalf of public
authorities to finance various privately-operated facilities are included within
the term "Municipal Securities" as used in the Prospectuses of the Tax-Free
Funds (other than the Ohio Municipal Money Market, Ohio Municipal Bond and
Municipal Money Market Funds) and in this Statement of Additional Information
with respect to such Funds only if the interest paid thereon is both exempt from
federal income tax and not treated as a preference item for individuals for
purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax. Private activity bonds that are
subject to federal income tax and are treated as a preference item for
individuals for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax are included
within the term Taxable Obligations as used in the Prospectuses of the Tax-Free
Funds (other than the Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund, the Ohio Municipal Bond
Fund and Municipal Money Market Fund). As used in the Prospectuses of the Ohio
Municipal Money Market Fund, the Ohio Municipal Bond Fund and the Municipal
Money Market Fund and in this Statement of Additional Information with respect
to such Funds, the term Municipal Securities includes private activity bonds
that are issued by or on behalf of public authorities to finance privately
operated facilities only if the interest paid thereon is exempt from federal
income tax. Private activity bonds that are subject to federal income tax are
included within the term Taxable Obligations as used in the Prospectuses of the
Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund, the Ohio Municipal Bond Fund, and the
Municipal Money Market Fund.
The two principal classifications of Municipal Securities consist of
"general obligation" and "limited" (or revenue) issues. General obligation bonds
are obligations involving the credit of an issuer possessing taxing power and
are payable from the issuer's general unrestricted revenues and not from any
particular fund or source. The characteristics and method of enforcement of
general obligation bonds vary according to the law applicable to the particular
issuer, and payment may be dependent upon appropriation by the issuer's
legislative body. Limited obligation bonds are payable only from the revenues
derived from a particular facility or class of facilities or, in some cases,
from the proceeds of a special excise or other specific revenue source. Private
activity bonds and industrial development bonds generally are revenue bonds and
thus not payable from the unrestricted revenues of the issuer. The credit and
quality of such bonds is generally related to the credit of the bank selected to
provide the letter of credit underlying the bond. Payment of principal of and
interest on industrial development revenue bonds is the responsibility of the
corporate user (and any guarantor).
The Funds may also acquire "moral obligation" issues, which are
normally issued by special purpose authorities, and in other tax-exempt
investments including pollution control bonds and tax-exempt commercial paper.
Each Fund may purchase short-term tax-exempt General Obligations Notes, Tax
Anticipation Notes, Bond Anticipation Notes, Revenue Anticipation Notes, Project
Notes, and other forms of short-term tax-exempt loans. Such notes are issued
with a short-term maturity in anticipation of the receipt of tax funds, the
proceeds of bond placements, or other revenues. Project Notes are issued by a
state or local housing agency and are sold by the Department of Housing and
Urban Development. While the issuing agency has the primary obligation with
respect to its Project Notes, they are also secured by the full faith and credit
of the United States through agreements with the issuing authority which provide
B-31
<PAGE> 318
that, if required, the federal government will lend the issuer an amount equal
to the principal of and interest on the Project Notes.
There are, of course, variations in the quality of Municipal
Securities, both within a particular classification and between classifications,
and the yields on Municipal Securities depend upon a variety of factors,
including general money market conditions, the financial condition of the
issuer, general conditions of the municipal bond market, the size of a
particular offering, the maturity of the obligations, and the rating of the
issue. The ratings of Moody's and S&P represent their opinions as to the quality
of Municipal Securities. It should be emphasized, however, that ratings are
general and are not absolute standards of quality, and Municipal Securities with
the same maturity, interest rate and rating may have different yields while
Municipal Securities of the same maturity and interest rate with different
ratings may have the same yield. Subsequent to its purchase by a Fund, an issue
of Municipal Securities may cease to be rated or its rating may be reduced below
the minimum rating required for purchase by the Fund. The Fund's Adviser will
consider such an event in determining whether the Fund should continue to hold
the obligations.
Municipal securities may include obligations of municipal housing
authorities and single-family mortgage revenue bonds. Weaknesses in Federal
housing subsidy programs and their administration may result in a decrease of
subsidies available for payment of principal and interest on housing authority
bonds. Economic developments, including fluctuations in interest rates and
increasing construction and operating costs, may also adversely impact revenues
of housing authorities. In the case of some housing authorities, inability to
obtain additional financing could also reduce revenues available to pay existing
obligations. Single-family mortgage revenue bonds are subject to extraordinary
mandatory redemption at par in whole or in part from the proceeds derived from
prepayments of underlying mortgage loans and also from the unused proceeds of
the issue within a stated period which may be within a year from the date of
issue.
Municipal leases are obligations issued by state and local governments
or authorities to finance the acquisition of equipment and facilities and may be
considered to be illiquid. They may take the form of a lease, an installment
purchase contract, a conditional sales contract, or a participation interest in
any of the above. Each Fund will limit its investment in municipal leases to no
more than 5% of its total assets. The Board of Trustees is responsible for
determining the credit quality of unrated municipal leases, on an ongoing basis,
including an assessment of the likelihood that the lease will not be cancelled.
The exclusion from gross income for Federal income tax purposes for
certain housing authority bonds depends on qualification under relevant
provisions of the Code and on other provisions of Federal law. These provisions
of Federal law contain certain ongoing requirements relating to the cost and
location of the residences financed with the proceeds of the single-family
mortgage bonds and the income levels of tenants of the rental projects financed
with the proceeds of the multi-family housing bonds. While the issuers of the
bonds, and other parties, including the originators and servicers of the
single-family mortgages and the owners
B-32
<PAGE> 319
of the rental projects financed with the multi-family housing bonds, covenant to
meet these ongoing requirements and generally agree to institute procedures
designed to insure that these requirements will be consistently met, although
there is no assurance that the requirements will be consistently met. The
failure to meet these requirements could cause the interest on the bonds to
become taxable, possibly retroactively from the date of issuance, thereby
reducing the value of the bonds and subjecting Shareholders to unanticipated tax
liabilities and possibly requiring a Fund to sell the bonds at the reduced
value. Furthermore, any failure to meet these ongoing requirements might
constitute an event of default under the applicable mortgage or permit the
holder to accelerate payment of the bond or require the issuer to redeem the
bond. In any event, where the mortgage is insured by the Federal Housing
Administration ("FHA"), the consent of the FHA may be required before insurance
proceeds would become payable to redeem the mortgage subsidy bonds.
Information about the financial condition of issuers of Municipal
Securities may be less available than about corporations having a class of
securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
An issuer's obligations under its Municipal Securities are subject to
the provisions of bankruptcy, insolvency, and other laws affecting the rights
and remedies of creditors, such as the federal bankruptcy code, and laws, if
any, which may be enacted by Congress or state legislatures extending the time
for payment of principal or interest, or both, or imposing other constraints
upon the enforcement of such obligations. The power or ability of an issuer to
meet its obligations for the payment of interest on and principal of its
Municipal Securities may be materially adversely affected by litigation or other
conditions.
Such litigation or conditions may from time to time have the effect of
introducing uncertainties in the market for tax-exempt obligations or certain
segments thereof, or may materially affect the credit risk with respect to
particular bonds or notes. Adverse economic, business, legal or political
developments might affect all or a substantial portion of a Fund's Municipal
Securities in the same manner.
From time to time, proposals have been introduced before Congress for
the purpose of restricting or eliminating the federal income tax exemption for
interest on tax exempt bonds, and similar proposals may be introduced in the
future. A recent decision of the United States Supreme Court has held that
Congress has the constitutional authority to enact such legislation. It is not
possible to determine what effect the adoption of such proposals could have on
(i) the availability of Municipal Securities for investment by the Funds, and
(ii) the value of the investment portfolios of the Funds.
The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") imposes
certain continuing requirements on issuers of tax-exempt bonds regarding the
use, expenditure and investment of bond proceeds and the payment of rebates to
the United States of America. Failure by the issuer to comply subsequent to the
issuance of tax-exempt bonds with certain of these requirements
B-33
<PAGE> 320
could cause interest on the bonds to become includable in gross income
retroactive to the date of issuance.
The Funds may invest in Municipal Securities either by purchasing them
directly or by purchasing certificates of accrual or similar instruments
evidencing direct ownership of interest payments or principal payments, or both,
on Municipal Securities, provided that, in the opinion of counsel to the initial
seller of each such certificate or instrument, any discount accruing on such
certificate or instrument that is purchased at a yield not greater than the
coupon rate of interest on the related Municipal Securities will to the same
extent as interest on such Municipal Securities be exempt from federal income
tax and state income tax (where applicable) and not treated as a preference item
for individuals for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax. The Funds
may also invest in Municipal Securities by purchasing from banks participation
interests in all or part of specific holdings of Municipal Securities. Such
participation may be backed in whole or in part by an irrevocable letter of
credit or guarantee of the selling bank. The selling bank may receive a fee from
a Fund in connection with the arrangement. A Fund will not purchase
participation interests unless it receives an opinion of counsel or a ruling of
the Internal Revenue Service that interest earned by it on Municipal Securities
in which it holds such participation interest is exempt from federal income tax
and state income tax (where applicable) and not treated as a preference item for
individuals for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax.
Demand Features
---------------
The Funds (except the Funds of Funds) may acquire securities that are
subject to puts and standby commitments ("demand features") to purchase the
securities at their principal amount (usually with accrued interest) within a
fixed period (usually seven days) following a demand by the Fund. The demand
feature may be issued by the issuer of the underlying securities, a dealer in
the securities or by another third party, and may not be transferred separately
from the underlying security.
Under a "stand-by commitment," a dealer would agree to purchase, at a
Fund's option, specified municipal securities at a specified price. A Fund will
acquire these commitments solely to facilitate portfolio liquidity and does not
intend to exercise its rights thereunder for trading purposes. Stand-by
commitments may also be referred to as put options. A Fund will generally limit
its investments in stand-by commitments to 25% of its total assets.
Swaps, Caps and Floors
----------------------
All of the Bond Funds (except the Limited Volatility Bond Fund) and the
fixed income portion of the Asset Allocation Fund may enter into swaps, caps,
and floors on various securities (such as U.S. government securities),
securities indexes, interest rates, prepayment rates, foreign currencies or
other financial instruments or indexes, in order to protect the value of the
Fund from interest rate fluctuations and to hedge against fluctuations in the
floating rate market in which the Fund's investments are traded, for both
hedging and non-hedging purposes. While
B-34
<PAGE> 321
swaps, caps, and floors (sometimes hereinafter collectively referred to as "swap
contracts") are different from futures contracts (and options on futures
contracts) in that swap contracts are individually negotiated with specific
counterparties, the Funds will use swap contracts for purposes similar to the
purposes for which they use options, futures, and options on futures. Those uses
of swap contracts (i.e., risk management and hedging) present the Funds with
risks and opportunities similar to those associated with options contracts,
futures contracts, and options on futures. See "Futures Contracts and Related
Options;" and "Options."
The Funds may enter into these transactions to manage their exposure to
changing interest rates and other market factors. Some transactions may reduce
each Fund's exposure to market fluctuations while others may tend to increase
market exposure.
Swap contracts typically involve an exchange of obligations by two
sophisticated parties. For example, in an interest rate swap, the Fund may
exchange with another party their respective rights to receive interest, such as
an exchange of fixed rate payments for floating rate payments. Currency swaps
involve the exchange of respective rights to make or receive payments in
specified currencies. Mortgage swaps are similar to interest rate swaps in that
they represent commitments to pay and receive interest. The notional principal
amount, however, is tied to a reference pool or pools of mortgages.
Caps and floors are variations on swaps. The purchase of a cap entitles
the purchaser to receive a principal amount from the party selling the cap to
the extent that a specified index exceeds a predetermined interest rate or
amount. The purchase of an interest rate floor entitles the purchaser to receive
payments on a notional principal amount from the party selling the floor to the
extent that a specified index falls below a predetermined interest rate or
amount. Caps and floors are similar in many respects to over-the-counter options
transactions, and may involve investment risks that are similar to those
associated with options transactions and options on futures contracts.
Because swap contracts are individually negotiated, they remain the
obligation of the respective counterparties, and there is a risk that a
counterparty will be unable to meet its obligations under a particular swap
contract. If a counterparty defaults on a swap contract with a Fund, the Fund
may suffer a loss. To address this risk, each Fund will usually enter into
interest rate swaps on a net basis, which means that the two payment streams
(one from the Fund to the counterparty, one to the Fund from the counterparty)
are netted out, with the Fund receiving or paying, as the case may be, only the
net amount of the two payments. Interest rate swaps do not involve the delivery
of securities, other underlying assets, or principal, except for the purposes of
collateralization as discussed below. Accordingly, the risk of loss with respect
to interest rate swaps entered into on a net basis would be limited to the net
amount of the interest payments that the Fund is contractually obligated to
make. If the other party to an interest rate swap defaults, the Fund's risk of
loss consists of the net amount of interest payments that a Fund is
contractually entitled to receive. To protect against losses related to
counterparty default, the Funds may enter into swaps that require transfers of
collateral for changes in market value. In contrast, currency swaps and other
types of swaps may involve the
B-35
<PAGE> 322
delivery of the entire principal value of one designated currency or financial
instrument in exchange for the other designated currency or financial
instrument. Therefore, the entire principal value of such swaps may be subject
to the risk that the other party will default on its contractual delivery
obligations.
In addition, because swap contracts are individually negotiated and
ordinarily non-transferable, there also may be circumstances in which it would
be impossible for a Fund to close out its obligations under the swap contract
prior to its maturity. Under such circumstances, the Fund might be able to
negotiate another swap contract with a different counterparty to offset the risk
associated with the first swap contract. Unless the Fund is able to negotiate
such an offsetting swap contract, however, the Fund could be subject to
continued adverse developments, even after the Adviser has determined that it
would be prudent to close out or offset the first swap contract.
The Funds will not enter into any mortgage swap, interest rate swap,
cap or floor transaction unless the unsecured commercial paper, senior debt, or
the claims paying ability of the other party thereto is rated in one of the top
two rating categories by at least one NRSRO, or if unrated, determined by the
Adviser to be of comparable quality.
The use of swaps involves investment techniques and risks different
from and potentially greater than those associated with ordinary Fund securities
transactions. If the Adviser is incorrect in its expectations of market values,
interest rates, or currency exchange rates, the investment performance of the
Funds would be less favorable than it would have been if this investment
technique were not used.
The Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission is presently
considering its position with respect to swaps, caps and floors as senior
securities. Pending a determination by the Staff, the Funds will either treat
swaps, caps and floors as being subject to their senior securities restrictions
or will refrain from engaging in swaps, caps and floors. Once the Staff has
expressed a position with respect to swaps, caps and floors, the Funds intend to
engage in swaps, caps and floors, if at all, in a manner consistent with such
position. To the extent the net amount of an interest rate or mortgage swap is
held in a segregated account, consisting of cash or liquid, high grade debt
securities, the Funds and the Adviser believe that swaps do not constitute
senior securities under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and, accordingly,
will not treat them as being subject to each Fund's borrowing restrictions. The
net amount of the excess, if any, of each Fund's obligations over its
entitlements with respect to each interest rate swap will be accrued on a daily
basis and an amount of cash or liquid securities having an aggregate net asset
value at least equal to the accrued excess will be maintained in a segregated
account by the Funds' Custodian.
Structured Instruments
----------------------
All of the Bond Funds (except the Limited Volatility Bond Fund) and the
fixed income portion of the Asset Allocation Fund may invest, from time to time,
in one or more structured
B-36
<PAGE> 323
instruments. Structured instruments are debt securities issued by agencies of
the U.S. government (such as Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac), banks,
corporations, and other business entities whose interest and/or principal
payments are indexed to certain specific foreign currency exchange rates,
interest rates, or one or more other reference indexes. Structured instruments
frequently are assembled in the form of medium-term notes, but a variety of
forms are available and may be used in particular circumstances.
The terms of such structured instruments provide that their principal
and/or interest payments are adjusted upwards or downwards to reflect changes in
the reference index while the structured instruments are outstanding. In
addition, the reference index may be used in determining when the principal is
redeemed. As a result, the interest and/or principal payments that may be made
on a structured product may vary widely, depending on a variety of factors,
including the volatility of the reference index and the effect of changes in the
reference index on principal and/or interest payment.
While structured instruments may offer the potential for a favorable
rate of return from time to time, they also entail certain risks. Structured
instruments may be less liquid than other debt securities, and the price of
structured instruments may be more volatile. If the value of the reference index
changes in a manner other than that expected by the Adviser, principal and/or
interest payments on the structured instrument may be substantially less than
expected. The Funds will invest only in structured securities that are
consistent with each Fund's investment objective, policies and restrictions and
the Adviser's outlook on market conditions. In some cases, depending on the
terms of the reference index, a structured instrument may provide that the
principal and/or interest payments may be adjusted below zero; however, the
Funds will not invest in structured instruments if the terms of the structured
instrument provide that the Funds may be obligated to pay more than their
initial investment in the structured instrument, or to repay any interest or
principal that has already been collected or paid back. Structured instruments
that are registered under the federal securities laws may be treated as liquid.
In addition, many structured instruments may not be registered under the federal
securities laws. In that event, a Fund's ability to resell such a structured
instrument may be more limited than its ability to resell other Fund securities.
The Funds will treat such instruments as illiquid, and will limit their
investments in such instruments to no more than 15% of each Fund's net assets,
when combined with all other illiquid investments of each Fund. In addition,
although structured instruments may be sold in the form of a corporate debt
obligation, they may not have some of the protection against counterparty
default that may be available with respect to publicly traded debt securities
(i.e., the existence of a trust indenture). In that respect, the risks of
default associated with structured instruments may be similar to those
associated with swap contracts. See "Swaps, Caps and Floors."
New Financial Products
----------------------
New options and futures contracts and other financial products, and
various combinations thereof, continue to be developed and all of the Bond Funds
(except the Limited Volatility Bond Fund) and the fixed income portion of the
Asset Allocation Fund may invest in any such options,
B-37
<PAGE> 324
contracts and products as may be developed to the extent consistent with each
Fund's investment objective, policies and restrictions and the regulatory
requirements applicable to investment companies.
These various products may be used to adjust the risk and return
characteristics of each Fund's investments. These various products may increase
or decrease exposure to security prices, interest rates, commodity prices, or
other factors that affect security values, regardless of the issuer's credit
risk. If market conditions do not perform consistent with expectations, the
performance of each Fund would be less favorable than it would have been if
these products were not used. In addition, losses may occur if counterparties
involved in transactions do not perform as promised. These products may expose
the Fund to potentially greater return as well as potentially greater risk of
loss than more traditional fixed income investments.
Restricted Securities
---------------------
Each of the Equity Funds (except the Equity Index Fund and the
International Equity Index Fund), each of the Bond Funds (except the Ohio
Municipal Bond Fund) and each of the Money Market Funds may invest in commercial
paper issued in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section
4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. Section 4(2) commercial paper is restricted
as to disposition under federal securities law and is generally sold to
institutional investors, such as the Funds, who agree that they are purchasing
the paper for investment purposes and not with a view to public distribution.
Any resale by the purchaser must be in an exempt transaction. Section 4(2)
commercial paper is normally resold to other institutional investors like the
Funds through or with the assistance of the issuer or investment dealers who
make a market in Section 4(2) commercial paper, thus providing liquidity. The
Funds believe that Section 4(2) commercial paper and possibly certain other
restricted securities which meet the criteria for liquidity established by the
Trustees are quite liquid. The Funds intend, therefore, to treat the restricted
securities which meet the criteria for liquidity established by the Trustees,
including Section 4(2) commercial paper, as determined by the Funds' Adviser, as
liquid and not subject to the investment limitation applicable to illiquid
securities. In addition, because Section 4(2) commercial paper is liquid, the
Fund will not subject such paper to the limitation applicable to restricted
securities.
The ability of the Trustees to determine the liquidity of certain
restricted securities is permitted under a Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC") Staff position set forth in the adopting release for Rule 144A under the
Securities Act of 1933 (the "Rule"). The Rule is a nonexclusive safe-harbor for
certain secondary market transactions involving securities subject to
restrictions on resale under federal securities laws. The Rule provides an
exemption from registration for resales of otherwise restricted securities to
qualified institutional buyers. The Rule was expected to further enhance the
liquidity of the secondary market for securities eligible for resale under Rule
144A. The Funds believe that the Staff of the SEC has left the question of
determining the liquidity of all restricted securities to the Trustees. The
Trustees have directed the Adviser to consider the following criteria in
determining the liquidity of certain restricted securities:
B-38
<PAGE> 325
- the frequency of trades and quotes for the security;
- the number of dealers willing to purchase or sell the security
and the number of other potential buyers;
- dealer undertakings to make a market in the security; and
- the nature of the security and the nature of the marketplace
trades.
High Yield Securities
---------------------
The Income Fund may invest in high yield securities. High yield bonds
are securities that are rated below investment grade by the primary rating
agencies (BB or lower by S&P and BA or lower by Moody's). Other terms used to
describe such securities include "lower rated bonds", "non-investment grade
bonds" and "junk bonds". Generally, lower rated debt securities provide a higher
yield than higher rated debt securities of similar maturity, but are subject to
a greater degree of risk with respect to the ability of the issuer to meet its
principal and interest obligations. Issuers of high yield securities may not be
as strong financially as those issuing higher rated securities. These securities
are regarded as predominately speculative. The market value of high yield
securities may fluctuate more than the market value of higher rated securities,
since high yield securities tend to reflect short-term corporate and market
developments to a greater extent than higher rated securities, which fluctuate
primarily in response to the general level of interest rates, assuming that
there has been no change in the fundamental quality of such securities. The
market prices of fixed income securities generally fall when interest rates
rise. Conversely, the market prices of fixed-income securities generally rise
when interest rates fall.
Additional risks of high yield securities include limited liquidity and
secondary market support. As a result, the prices of high yield securities may
decline rapidly in the event that a significant number of holders decide to
sell. Changes in expectations regarding an individual issuer, an industry or
high yield securities generally could reduce market liquidity for such
securities and make their sale by the Fund more difficult, at least in the
absence of price concessions. Reduced liquidity also could adversely affect the
Fund's ability to accurately value high yield securities. Issuers of high yield
securities also are more vulnerable to real or perceived economic changes (for
instance, an economic downturn or prolonged period of rising interest rates),
political changes or adverse developments specific to the issuer. Adverse
economic, political or other developments may impair the issuer's ability to
service principal and interest obligations, to meet projected business goals and
to obtain additional financing, particularly if the issuer is highly leveraged.
In the event of a default, the Fund would experience a reduction of its income
and could expect a decline in the market value of the defaulted securities.
Further, proposed new laws may have a possible negative impact on the
market for high yield bonds. As an example, legislation requires
federally-insured savings and loan associations to divest their investments in
high yield bonds. New legislation, if enacted, could have a material negative
effect on a Fund's net asset value and investment practices.
Finally, the market prices of high-yield securities structured as zero
coupon or pay-in-kind securities are generally affected to a greater extent by
interest rate changes and tend to be more
B-39
<PAGE> 326
volatile than securities which pay interest periodically. In addition, zero
coupon, pay-in-kind and delayed interest bonds often do not pay interest until
maturity. However, the Fund must recognize a computed amount of interest income
and pay dividends to shareholders even though it has received no cash. In some
instances, the Fund may have to sell securities to have sufficient cash to pay
the dividends.
The high yield securities in which the Fund may invest include the following:
-- Straight fixed-income debt securities. These include bonds and other
debt obligations which bear a fixed or variable rate of interest
payable at regular intervals and have a fixed or resettable maturity
date. The particular terms of such securities vary and may include
features such as call provisions and sinking funds.
-- Zero-coupon debt securities. These bear no interest obligation but
are issued at a discount from their value at maturity. When held to
maturity, their entire return equals the difference between their issue
price and their maturity value.
-- Zero-fixed-coupon debt securities. These are zero-coupon debt
securities which convert on a specified date to interest-bearing debt
securities.
Ohio Municipal Securities
-------------------------
As used in the Trust's Prospectuses and this Statement of Additional
Information, the term "Ohio Municipal Securities" refers to debt securities
which (i) are issued by or on behalf of the State of Ohio or its respective
authorities, agencies, instrumentalities, and political subdivisions, and (ii)
produce interest which, in the opinion of issuer's counsel at the time of
issuance, is exempt from both federal income tax, and Ohio personal income tax.
Risk Factors Regarding Investments in Ohio Municipal Securities
- ---------------------------------------------------------------
The economy of Ohio, while becoming increasingly diversified and
increasingly reliant on the service sector, continues to rely in significant
part on durable goods manufacturing, which is largely concentrated in motor
vehicles and equipment, steel, rubber products and household appliances. As a
result, general economic activity in Ohio, as in many other industrial states,
tends to be more cyclical than in some other states and in the nation as a
whole. Agriculture also is an important segment of the Ohio economy, and the
state has instituted several programs to provide financial assistance to
farmers. Although revenue obligations of the state or its political subdivisions
may be payable from a specific source or project, and general obligation debt
may be payable from a specific tax, there can be no assurance that future
economic difficulties and the resulting impact on state and local government
finances will not adversely affect the market value of the Ohio Municipal
Securities in the Funds of the Trust or the ability of the respective obligators
to make timely payment of interest and principal on such obligations.
B-40
<PAGE> 327
Since the Ohio Municipal Bond Fund and Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund
invest primarily in Ohio Municipal Securities, the value of each Fund's Shares
may be especially affected by factors pertaining to the economy of Ohio and
other factors specifically affecting the ability of issuers of Ohio Municipal
Securities to meet their obligations. As a result, the value of the Shares of
the Ohio Municipal Bond Fund and the Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund may
fluctuate more widely than the value of Shares of a portfolio investing in
securities relating to a number of different states. The ability of Ohio state,
county, or local governments to meet their obligations will depend primarily on
the availability of tax and other revenues to those governments and on their
fiscal conditions generally. The amounts of tax and other revenues available to
issuers of Ohio Municipal Securities may be affected from time to time by
economic, political and demographic conditions within the state. In addition,
constitutional or statutory restrictions may limit a government's power to raise
revenues or increase taxes. The availability of federal, state, and local aid to
issuers of Ohio Municipal Securities may also affect their ability to meet their
obligations. Payments of principal and interest on limited obligation securities
will depend on the economic condition of the facility or specific revenue source
from whose revenues the payments will be made, which in turn could be affected
by economic, political, and demographic conditions in the state. Any reduction
in the actual or perceived ability to meet obligations on the part of either an
issuer of an Ohio Municipal Security or a provider of credit enhancement for
such Security (including a reduction in the rating of its outstanding
securities) would likely affect adversely the market value and marketability of
that Ohio Municipal Security and could adversely affect the values of other Ohio
Municipal Securities as well.
West Virginia Municipal Securities
----------------------------------
As used in the Prospectus and this Statement of Additional Information,
the term "West Virginia Municipal Securities" refers to debt securities which
are issued by or on behalf of West Virginia or its respective authorities,
agencies, instrumentalities and political subdivisions and which produce
interest which, in the opinion of counsel for the issuer, is exempt from federal
income tax, is not treated as a preference item for purposes of the federal
alternative minimum tax, and is exempt from West Virginia personal income tax.
Risk Factors Regarding Investments in West Virginia Municipal Securities
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
West Virginia's economy is heavily dependent upon the coal mining
industry. A reduction in the demand for certain types of coal and increasing
governmental regulation has had an adverse impact upon the industry and upon the
economy of the state. Notwithstanding the importance of the coal mining industry
on the West Virginia economy, over the course of the past few years, West
Virginia's economy has benefitted from a developing tourism industry. Tourism
directly and indirectly accounts for a material portion of the West Virginia
economy.
B-41
<PAGE> 328
In 1989, state taxes were substantially increased by applying sales,
service and use taxes to a vast number of consumer and industrial products and
services that were previously exempt from such tax. In 1993, the state's
gasoline tax was substantially increased.
In 1990, legislation was enacted directing a statewide reappraisal of
real property for ad valorem tax purposes. Implementation of the reappraisal
program was completed in 1994. Generally, implementation has substantially
increased ad valorem taxes of both residential and commercial real property
owners.
Despite the enactment in 1989 and 1990 of legislation designed to
provide a significant increase in revenues to the state, the state experienced a
shortfall in revenues. Even with these measures, the Governor in 1990 imposed a
two-year hiring freeze on state agencies; and in 1992, and again in January,
1993, the Governor imposed spending reductions on most state agencies in order
to bring expenditures in line with revenues.
The increase in taxes in recent years and the 1993 freeze of
expenditures did result in a surplus for the state at the end of its June 30,
1993 fiscal year. The state also had a surplus at the end of its June 30, 1994
fiscal year. However, as in many other states, the state, local governments and
school boards continue to struggle to produce sufficient revenues to fund
operations and support public education.
West Virginia led the nation in unemployment from July, 1991 through
August, 1993. Although unemployment in West Virginia declined from 10.5% in
July, 1993, to 8.7% in July, 1994, West Virginia's unemployment rate is still
well above the 6.1% national rate for July, 1994. High unemployment continues to
reflect the weakness of the West Virginia economy.
Kentucky Municipal Securities
-----------------------------
As used in the Prospectus and this Statement of Additional Information,
the term "Kentucky Municipal Securities" refers to debt securities which are
issued by or on behalf of Kentucky or its respective authorities, agencies,
instrumentalities and political subdivisions and which produce interest which,
in the opinion of counsel for the issuer, is exempt from federal income tax, is
not treated as a preference item for purposes of the federal alternative minimum
tax, and is exempt from Kentucky personal income tax.
Risk Factors Regarding Investments in Kentucky Municipal Securities
- -------------------------------------------------------------------
As of August 31, 1994, Kentucky had an unemployment rate of 4.4%, which
was below the national average of 5.9%. For calendar year 1993, Kentucky's per
capita income ranked 43rd in the nation and was 82% of the national average. The
most current audited financial statement for Kentucky indicates a surplus of
funds in the General Fund of $104.6 million, which was $88.5 million above the
budgeted balance.
B-42
<PAGE> 329
Unlike many states, payment on nearly all Kentucky Municipal Securities
depends upon revenue generated by the property financed by the securities; the
securities are not general obligations of the issuer.
Texas Municipal Securities
--------------------------
As used in the Prospectus and this Statement of Additional Information,
the term "Texas Municipal Securities" refers to debt securities which are issued
by or on behalf of Texas or its respective authorities, agencies,
instrumentalities and political subdivisions and which produce interest which,
in the opinion of counsel for the issuer, is exempt from federal income tax and
is not treated as a preference item for purposes of the federal alternative
minimum tax.
Risk Factors Regarding Investments in Texas Municipal Securities
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
Because the Fund invests primarily in obligations issued by Texas
entities, the Fund's performance is partially dependent upon economic conditions
within the State of Texas generally and upon the economic condition of issuing
governments and their instrumentalities in particular. In the late 1980's,
weakness in the oil and gas related and agricultural sectors of the Texas
economy adversely affected consumer spending, financial institutions, utility
demand, and real estate values within the state. Consequently, the state and
many of its local governments had to increase sales, utilities, and ad valorem
tax rates in order to maintain revenue yields. In the past two years, however,
in contrast to the national economy, business activity in Texas has
strengthened, with employment growth occurring in most sectors. In addition,
Texas' major financial institutions have been recapitalized and bank failures
have generally ceased.
Arizona Municipal Securities
----------------------------
As used in the Prospectus and this Statement of Additional Information,
the term "Arizona Municipal Securities" refers to debt securities which are
issued by or on behalf of Arizona or its respective authorities, agencies,
instrumentalities and political subdivisions and which produce interest which,
in the opinion of counsel for the issuer, is exempt from federal income tax and
is not treated as a preference item for purposes of the federal alternative
minimum tax.
Risk Factors Regarding Investments in Arizona Municipal Securities
- ------------------------------------------------------------------
Arizona's outlook remains uncertain as long as the state does not adopt
a plan regarding long term matching of revenues and expenditures, especially for
education, health care and corrections. Despite severe problems in the real
estate sector, Arizona's growth continues to out pace the nation, for example:
(i) the state's 35% population growth during the 1980's was the third fastest
rate in the nation, next to Alaska and Nevada; (ii) Arizona's current population
growth is over 2% per year, about twice the national average, (iii) its growth
in non-agricultural employment between July 1990-1991 was 1.5%-- seventh fastest
in the nation; and (iv) the state's unemployment rate currently is 7.1%, below
the 7.3% U.S. unemployment rate.
B-43
<PAGE> 330
Nonetheless, growth has been expensive for Arizona. During the
high-growth 1980's, combined per capita state and local expenditures climbed to
about 105% of the U.S. average from about 95%, according to data from the
Advisory Commission on Intergovernmental Relations. This occurred just after
1980 tax reform removed food from the sales tax base and imposed limits on
property taxes. The resulting reduction in revenues reduced liquidity in the
state treasury. General Fund balances fell to a low of zero in fiscal 1983 from
a high of 21% in 1980. Balancing the budget has been a challenge ever since,
requiring numerous mid-year corrections and special sessions of the legislature.
Although growth-generated revenues picked up during the mid-decade boom, growth
in entitlements, federally mandated programs, education, and corrections still
outstripped revenue inflow. When growth started to slow in 1986, the pressure
intensified. Since fiscal 1985, the state managed five successive years of
shortfalls with internal borrowing, tax accelerations, one-time adjustments, and
budget cuts. After considerable cuts in many departments, fiscal 1991 closed
with an estimated 2% balance, and fiscal 1992 had a General Fund balance of $5
million. The forecast for fiscal 1993 is for a balanced budget.
Louisiana Municipal Securities
------------------------------
As used in the Prospectus and this Statement of Additional Information,
the term "Louisiana Municipal Securities" refers to debt securities which are
issued by or on behalf of Louisiana or its respective authorities, agencies,
instrumentalities and political subdivisions and which produce interest which,
in the opinion of counsel for the issuer, is exempt from federal income tax and
is not treated as a preference item for purposes of the federal alternative
minimum tax.
Risk Factors Regarding Investments in Louisiana Municipal Securities
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
Louisiana's general obligation bonds are currently rated Baa1 by
Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's") and A minus by Standard and Poor's
Rating Group ("S&P"). Louisiana's ratings reflect an ongoing recovery process
from the severe financial problems which developed after oil prices declined in
the mid-to-late 1980's. Also, both rating agencies have commended the State for
enacting constitutional reforms in the Fall of 1993 that curb borrowing and
require that non-recurring revenues be applied to debt reduction. However,
Louisiana remains one of the weakest states in terms of its credit fundamentals.
While ratings of individual cities, parishes, agencies and special districts
vary, most Louisiana issuers have been affected to some degree by Louisiana's
economy.
Through the oil boom of the late 1970s and early 1980s, Louisiana's
labor force and employment grew steadily, as did its financial position. By June
30, 1981, the General Fund had run several years of operating surpluses,
bringing the ending fund balance to $839.5 million, a sizeable 16% of operating
expenditures. When the oil industry weakened, economic growth slowed and
operating deficits occurred, Louisiana's undesignated General Fund deficit
reached $512 million in fiscal 1988 (ended June 30) and the fund balance was a
negative $377 million.
B-44
<PAGE> 331
To address its deficits, Louisiana created the Louisiana Recovery
District in 1988, which sold $979 million revenue bonds secured by (i) the
revenues derived from the Recovery District's 1% statewide sales and use tax,
and (ii) all funds and accounts held under the Recovery District's general bond
resolution and all investment earnings on such funds and accounts. As of
December 31, 1994, the principal amount of all these bonds (including bonds
issued to defease certain portions of the original bond issue) was $486,795
million. Article VI, Section 30.1 of the State Constitution, effective November
3, 1994, prohibits the Recovery District from issuing additional bonds except to
refund bonds at a lower effective interest rate. All bonds of the Recovery
District shall be retired no later than the end of the fiscal year 1998-1999.
During the period from fiscal year 1987-1988 through fiscal year
1993-1994, Louisiana experienced operating budget deficits in three of the seven
fiscal years. The operating deficit problem was exacerbated by the highly
dependent nature of Louisiana's budget on mineral revenues and the dramatic
fluctuations in oil prices over the last decade.
Louisiana began fiscal year 1988-1989 with a balance of $271 million in
the General Fund and ended the year with an operating surplus which, when
combined with prior year adjustments of $384 million, provided the state with an
ended balance in the General Fund of $655 million. Fiscal year ended 1989-1990
ended with a small operating surplus of $47 million which, when added to the
$655 million balance from the prior fiscal year, resulted in an accumulated
surplus of $702 million as of June 30, 1990.
In fiscal year 1990-1991, Louisiana ended the fiscal year with an
accumulated surplus in the General Fund of $417.98 million. In fiscal year
1991-1992, state operations resulted in a $487 million deficit which, after
adjustment, resulted in an undesignated fund balance deficit of $83 million.
This shortfall was eliminated by utilizing a set aside against the total balance
available for appropriations.
Louisiana ended fiscal year 1992-1993 with a positive undesignated
balance in its General Fund of $101 million. At the end of fiscal year
1993-1994, there was an operating surplus of $129 million which, after including
the prior year's fund balance and reserve changes, resulted in a positive
undesignated unreserved General Fund balance of $212.9 million. The State
forecasts for fiscal year 1995-1996 indicate a potential revenue shortfall of
$192 million in order to continue State operations in fiscal year 1995-1996 at
current levels.
It should be noted that the General Fund could be impacted by certain
pending Medicaid issues. Currently, Louisiana is eligible to receive up to
$1.217 billion in Medicaid disproportionate share payments for hospitals. In the
past, Louisiana has used a portion of the amounts paid to the public hospitals
in the State to return to the Medicaid program to help finance this health care.
The 1993 amendments to the federal disproportionate share law severely
restrict the State's ability to continue to help finance health care in this
manner. It is estimated that a total
B-45
<PAGE> 332
of approximately $940 million in disproportionate share funding will be paid out
in State fiscal year 1995, compared to the total capped amount available to
Louisiana of $1.271 billion. Thus, the 1993 amendments reduced Louisiana's
disproportionate share fund by over $300 million. In fiscal year 1996, the
estimated loss of disproportionate share funding is over $750 million.
On December 31, 1994, Louisiana submitted a proposed "Section 1115
Waiver" to the federal government to significantly change its Medicaid program
to allow more flexibility and to address the potential financing problem.
Preliminary meetings with Health and Human Services indicate that the federal
government is interested in developing a joint solution to Louisiana's health
care funding crisis and is working with the State on the waiver. The waiver
proposal provides for a phase-in of a managed care program with emphasis on
primary and preventive services through a capitated payment system which should
provide for more stability and controlled growth in the Medicaid program. The
State has received a letter from U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services,
Donna Shalala, advising that they hope to reach a final agreement with 120 days.
The Health Care Financing Administration ("HCFA") has recently notified
Louisiana that it has questions concerning the provider fee legislation enacted
in 1993. If HCFA disallows the provider fee, there could be a negative $112
million effect as of June 30, 1994. The State is expected to aggressively object
to any disallowance by HCFA.
Economically, Louisiana will continue to be affected by world energy
markets. Approximately 15% of the nation's crude oil and approximately 28% of
its natural gas are produced in Louisiana. In the past the State has estimated
that up to 25% of its economy is directly or indirectly related to energy. This
is despite the fact that only 5.5% of employment is in oil and gas extraction,
chemicals and allied products and petroleum refining. Oil and oil related jobs
also tend to be at relatively high wages, magnifying their economic effect.
Similarly, although severance taxes and royalties accounted for almost 4.3% of
operating revenues for fiscal year 1993-1994, compared with almost 25% ten years
ago, energy related activity affects individual and corporate taxes, which
together with sales taxes account for 21.3% of general revenues. Unemployment
declined in Louisiana from 12% in 1987 to 6.2% in 1990. This was due in part to
increased employment but also to out-migration of population and a decline in
labor force. Louisiana's jobless rate has since risen to 7.4% as of December 31,
1994. The comparable national unemployment rate was 6.8%. In addition to oil and
gas, major contributors to Louisiana's economy include chemical production,
shipping, agriculture and tourism.
Louisiana's debt burden is well above that of other states, while
wealth and income indicators are below the national average. In 1993, for
example, the most recent year for which data is available, Louisiana's per
capita personal income was 80% of the United States average. According to
Moody's, Louisiana's State-level tax supported debt is the sixth highest as a
percentage of personal income and eighth highest on a per-capita basis.

Municipal obligations are subject to the provisions of bankruptcy,
insolvency and other laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors, such
as the Federal Bankruptcy Code, and laws, if any, which may be enacted by
Congress or State legislatures extending the time for payment of principal or
interest, or both, or imposing other constraints upon enforcement of such
obligations or upon municipalities to levy taxes. There is also the possibility
that as a result of litigation or other conditions the power or ability of any
one or more issuers to pay when due principal or interest on its or their
municipal obligations may be materially affected.
INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS
- -----------------------
Unless otherwise specifically noted, the following investment
restrictions may be changed with respect to a particular Fund only by a vote of
a majority of the outstanding Shares of that Fund. See "ADDITIONAL INFORMATION--
Miscellaneous" in this Statement of Additional Information.
None of the Funds may:
1. Purchase securities on margin, sell securities short, or participate
in a joint or joint and several basis in any securities trading account, except,
in the case of the Municipal Bond Funds, for use of short-term credit necessary
for clearance of purchases of portfolio securities.
2. Underwrite the securities of other issuers except to the extent that
a Fund may be deemed to be an underwriter under certain securities laws in the
disposition of "restricted securities."
3. Purchase or sell commodities or commodity contracts (including
futures contracts), except that for bona fide hedging and other permissible
purposes: (i) the Equity, Bond and International Equity Index Funds may purchase
or sell financial futures contracts and may purchase call or put options on
financial futures contracts, and (ii) the International Equity Index Fund may
purchase or sell foreign currency futures contracts and foreign currency forward
contacts, and may purchase put or call options on foreign currency futures
contracts and on foreign currencies on appropriate U.S. exchanges, and may
purchase or sell foreign currency on a spot basis.
4. Purchase participation or other direct interests in oil, gas or
mineral exploration or development programs (although investments by all Funds
other than the U.S. Treasury Securities Money Market, Treasury Money Market,
Treasury Only Money Market and Government Money Market Funds in marketable
securities of companies engaged in such activities are not hereby precluded).
5. Invest in any issuer for purposes of exercising control or
management.
B-47
<PAGE> 334
6. Purchase securities of other investment companies except as
permitted by the 1940 Act and rules, regulations and applicable exemptive relief
thereunder.
7. Purchase or sell real estate (however, each Fund except the Money
Market Funds may, to the extent appropriate to its investment objective,
purchase securities secured by real estate or interests therein or securities
issued by companies investing in real estate or interests therein).
8. Borrow money or issue senior securities, except that each Fund may
borrow from banks or enter into reverse repurchase agreements for temporary
purposes in amounts up to 10% of the value of its total assets at the time of
such borrowing; or mortgage, pledge, or hypothecate any assets, except in
connection with any such borrowing and in amounts not in excess of the lesser of
the dollar amounts borrowed or 10% of the value of the Fund's total assets at
the time of its borrowing. A Fund will not purchase securities while its
borrowings (including reverse repurchase agreements) in excess of 5% of its
total assets are outstanding.
In addition, the U.S. Treasury Securities Money Market, the Prime Money
Market and the Institutional Money Market Funds may not:
1. Buy common stocks or voting securities.
In addition, the U.S. Treasury Securities Money Market, the Prime Money
Market, and the Government Money Market Funds may not:
1. Buy State, municipal, or private activity bonds.
The following investment restrictions are non-fundamental except as
noted otherwise and therefore can be changed by the Board of Trustees without
prior shareholder approval.
No Fund may:
1. Purchase or retain securities of any issuer if the officers or
Trustees of the Trust or the officers or directors of its Adviser owning
beneficially more than one-half of 1% of the securities of such issuer together
own beneficially more than 5% of such securities.
2. Invest more than 5% of a Fund's total assets in the securities of
issuers which together with any predecessors have a record of less than three
years continuous operation. (This restriction shall not apply to investments in
asset-backed securities and other mutual funds authorized for purchase by such
Fund, as described in its Prospectus. For purposes of this restriction, an
"Asset-Backed Security" means a debt obligation issued by a limited-purpose
entity whose primary business activity is acquiring and holding financial
assets.) (This restriction is fundamental with respect to the Ohio Municipal
Money Market Fund.)
B-48
<PAGE> 335
3. Invest in illiquid securities in an amount exceeding, in the
aggregate 15% of the Fund's net assets (10% of net assets for a Fund that is a
Money Market Fund). An illiquid security is a security which cannot be disposed
of promptly (within seven days) and in the usual course of business without a
loss, and includes repurchase agreements maturing in excess of seven days, time
deposits with a withdrawal penalty, non-negotiable instruments and instruments
for which no market exists. (This restriction is fundamental with respect to the
Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund.)
The Equity Funds, the Municipal Bond Funds, and the Institutional Money Market
Funds may not:
1. Acquire securities that are subject to restrictions on resale
because they are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, if
such investment would exceed 5% of the Fund's total assets.
Each of the Asset Allocation and Intermediate Bond Funds may not:
1. Invest more than 15% of its net assets in securities with legal or
contractual restrictions on resale. However, this restriction shall not
apply to securities eligible for resale to institutional buyers under
Rule 144A of the Securities and Exchange Commission or to securities
that become a part of the Fund's assets through merger, exchange or
recapitalization involving securities already held in a Fund.
None of the Money Market Funds or Institutional Money Market Funds may:
1. Write or purchase call options.
2. Write or purchase put options except that each of the Ohio Municipal
Money Market, Municipal Money Market and Tax-Exempt Money Market Funds
may acquire puts with respect to Municipal Securities in its portfolio
and sell those puts in conjunction with a sale of those Municipal
Securities.
The Municipal Income Fund, Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund, Municipal Money
Market Fund and the Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund may not:
1. Write or sell puts, calls, straddles, spreads or combinations
thereof except that a Fund may acquire puts with respect to Municipal
Securities in its portfolio and sell those puts in conjunction with a
sale of those Municipal Securities.
Additionally, although not a matter controlled by their fundamental
investment policies or restrictions (and therefore subject to change without
Shareholder approval), the Equity Funds and the Bond Funds will not, so long as
their Shares are registered under the securities laws of the State of Texas and
such restrictions are required as a consequence of such registration, (1) invest
more than 5% of any Fund's net assets in warrants; provided that, of this 5%, no
B-49
<PAGE> 336
more than 2% will be in warrants that are not listed on the New York Stock
Exchange or the American Stock Exchange or (2) invest more than 15% of any
Fund's net assets in securities which are not readily marketable. For purposes
of restriction (1) in the preceding sentence, warrants acquired by a Fund in
units or attached to other securities may be deemed to be without value.
Additionally, although not a matter controlled by their fundamental
investment policies or restrictions (and therefore subject to change without
Shareholder approval), the Equity Funds, the Bond Funds, the Municipal Money
Market Fund, the U.S. Treasury Securities Money Market Fund, the Prime Money
Market Fund, the Intermediate Tax-Free Bond Fund, the Municipal Income Fund, and
the Texas Tax-Free Bond Fund will not, so long as their Shares are registered
under the securities laws of the State of Texas and such restrictions are
required as a consequence of such registration, (1) purchase participations or
other direct interests in oil, gas, or mineral explorations or development
programs and oil, gas or mineral leases, or (2) purchase or sell real estate or
real estate limited partnership interests.
Additionally, although not a matter controlled by their fundamental
investment policies or restrictions (and therefore subject to change without
Shareholder approval), each of the Funds may, so long as their Shares are
registered under the securities laws of the State of California and such
restrictions are required as a consequence of such registration, purchase
securities of other open-end investment companies, provided that the adviser
will waive its fee on that portion of the assets placed in such open-end
investment companies.
Additionally, although not a matter controlled by their fundamental
investment policies or restrictions (and therefore subject to change without
Shareholder approval), so long as its Shares are registered under the securities
laws of the State of Arkansas and such restrictions are required as a
consequence of such registration, (1) none of the Money Market Funds, the
Institutional Money Market Funds or the Bond Funds may acquire securities that
are subject to restrictions on resale because they are not registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, if such investment would exceed 10% of such Fund's net
assets; and (2) none of the International Equity Index Fund, the Equity Index
Fund, the Tax Exempt Money Market Fund or the Government Money Market Fund will
invest in puts, calls, straddles, spreads or any combination thereof if such
investment would exceed 5% of such Fund's total assets.
Additionally, although not a matter controlled by its fundamental
investment policies or restrictions (and therefore subject to change without
Shareholder approval), so long as its Shares are registered under the securities
laws of the State of Ohio, and such restriction is required as a consequence of
such registration, none of the Intermediate Tax-Free Bond Fund or the
Institutional Money Market Funds will acquire securities which are restricted as
to disposition, in excess of fifteen percent (15%) of such Fund's net assets.

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER
- ------------------
The portfolio turnover rate for each Fund is calculated by dividing the
lesser of purchases or sales of portfolio securities for the year by the monthly
average value of the portfolio securities. The calculation excludes all
securities whose maturities at the time of acquisition were one year or less.
Thus, for regulatory purposes, the portfolio turnovers with respect to the Money
Market Funds were zero for the period from the commencement of their respective
operations to June 30, 1995 and are expected to remain zero, and the portfolio
turnover rate with respect to the Institutional Money Market Funds is expected
to be zero.
The portfolio turnover rates of the Funds for the fiscal years ended
June 30, 1995 and 1994 were as follows:

including some or all of the following: investment strategies, decreasing
interest rates, unusually high market volatility and significant growth of the
Fund. Portfolio turnover may vary greatly from year to year as well as within a
particular year, and may also be affected by cash requirements for redemptions
of Shares and by requirements which enable the Trust to receive certain
favorable tax treatments. Portfolio turnover will not be a limiting factor in
making portfolio decisions.
ADDITIONAL TAX INFORMATION CONCERNING ALL FUNDS OF THE TRUST
- ------------------------------------------------------------
It is the policy of each Fund of the Trust to meet the requirements
necessary to qualify as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). By following such
policy, each Fund expects to eliminate or reduce to a nominal amount the federal
income taxes to which it may be subject.
In order to qualify as a regulated investment company, each Fund of the
Trust must, among other things, (1) derive at least 90% of its gross income from
dividends, interest, payments with respect to securities loans, and gains from
the sale or other disposition of stock or securities, foreign currencies or
other income (including gains from options, futures or forward contracts)
derived with respect to its business of investing in stock, securities or
currencies, (2) derive less than 30% of its gross income from the sale or other
disposition of stock, securities, options, futures, forward contracts, and
certain foreign currencies (or certain options, futures, or forward contracts on
foreign currencies) held for less than three months, and (3) diversify its
holdings so that at the end of each quarter of its taxable year (i) at least 50%
of the market value of the Fund's assets is represented by cash or cash items,
United States government securities, securities of other regulated investment
companies, and other securities limited, in respect of any one issuer, to an
amount not greater than 5% of the value of the Fund's assets and 10% of the
outstanding voting securities of such issuer, and (ii) not more than 25% of the
value of its assets is invested in the securities of any one issuer (other than
United
B-52
<PAGE> 339
States government securities or the securities of other regulated investment
companies) or of two or more issuers that the Fund controls and that are engaged
in the same, similar, or related trades or businesses. These requirements may
restrict the degree to which the Fund may engage in short-term trading and limit
the range of the Fund's investments. If a Fund of the Trust qualifies as a
regulated investment company, it will not be subject to federal income tax on
the part of its income distributed to Shareholders, provided the Fund
distributes during its taxable year at least (a) 90% of its taxable net
investment income (very generally, dividends, interest, certain other income,
and the excess, if any, of net short-term capital gain over net long-term loss),
and (b) 90% of the excess of (i) its tax-exempt interest income (if any) less
(ii) certain deductions attributable to that income. Each Fund of the Trust
intends to make sufficient distributions to Shareholders to qualify for this
special tax treatment.
If a Fund failed to qualify as a regulated investment company receiving
special tax treatment in any taxable year, the Fund would be subject to tax on
its taxable income at corporate rates, and all distributions from earnings and
profits, including any distributions of net tax-exempt income and net long-term
capital gains, would be taxable to Shareholders as ordinary income. In addition,
the Fund could be required to recognize unrealized gains, pay substantial taxes
and interest and make substantial distributions before requalifying as a
regulated investment company and being accorded special tax treatment.
Regulated investment companies that do not distribute in each calendar
year (regardless of whether they otherwise have a non-calendar taxable year) an
amount equal to 98% of their "ordinary income" (as defined) for the calendar
year, plus 98% of their capital gain net income (as defined) for the one-year
period ending on October 31 of such calendar year, plus any undistributed
amounts from the previous year are subject to a non-deductible excise tax equal
to 4% of the undistributed amounts. For purposes of the excise tax, a Fund is
treated as having distributed any amount on which it is subject to income tax
for any taxable year ending in such calendar year. Each Fund of the Trust
intends to make sufficient distributions to avoid liability for the excise tax.
Shareholders of the Funds will generally pay federal income tax on
distributions received from the Funds. Dividends that are attributable to a
Fund's net investment income will be taxed to shareholders as ordinary income.
Distributions of net capital gain that are designated by a Fund as capital gain
dividends will generally be taxable to a Shareholder receiving such
distributions as long-term capital gain regardless of how long the Shareholder
has held its shares. Distributions in excess of a Fund's current and accumulated
"earnings and profits" will be treated by a Shareholder receiving such
distributions as a return of capital to the extent of such Shareholder's basis
in its Shares in the Fund, and thereafter as capital gain. A return of capital
is not taxable, but reduces a Shareholder's basis in its shares. Shareholders
not subject to tax on their income generally will not be required to pay tax on
amounts distributed to them. The sale, exchange or redemption of Fund shares by
a Shareholder may give rise to a taxable gain or loss to that Shareholder. In
general, any gain or loss realized upon a taxable disposition of shares will be
treated as long-term capital gain or loss if the Shareholder has held the shares
for
B-53
<PAGE> 340
more than 12 months, and otherwise as short-term capital gain or loss. However,
if a Shareholder sells shares at a loss within six months of purchase, any loss
will be disallowed for Federal income tax purposes to the extent of any
exempt-interest dividends received on such shares. In addition, any loss (not
already disallowed as provided in the preceding sentence) realized upon a
taxable disposition of shares held for six months or less will be treated as
long-term to the extent of any long-term capital gain distributions received by
the Shareholder with respect to the shares. All or a portion of any loss
realized upon a taxable disposition of Fund shares will be disallowed if other
Fund shares are purchased within 30 days before or after the disposition. In
such a case, the basis of the newly purchased shares will be adjusted to reflect
the disallowed loss.
Certain investment and hedging activities of the Funds, including
transactions in options, futures contracts, hedging transactions, forward
contracts, straddles, foreign currencies, and foreign securities will be subject
to special tax rules. In a given case, these rules may accelerate income to the
Fund, defer losses to the Fund, cause adjustments in the holding periods of the
Fund's securities, convert short-term capital losses into long-term capital
losses, or otherwise affect the character of the Fund's income. These rules
could therefore affect the amount, timing and character of distributions to
Shareholders and cause differences between a Fund's book income and taxable
income. Income earned as a result of these transactions would, in general, not
be eligible for the dividends-received deduction or for treatment as
exempt-interest dividends when distributed to Shareholders. The Fund will
endeavor to make any available elections pertaining to such transactions in a
manner believed to be in the best interest of the Fund.
Certain securities purchased by the Funds (such as STRIPS, CUBES, TRS,
TIGRS, and CATS), as defined in the Description of Permitted Investments in the
Funds' Prospectuses, are sold at original issue discount and thus do not make
periodic cash interest payments. Similarly, zero-coupon bonds do not make
periodic interest payments. A Fund will be required to include as part of its
current income for tax purposes the imputed interest on such obligations even
though the Fund has not received any interest payments on such obligations
during that period. Because each Fund distributes substantially all of its net
investment income to its Shareholders (including such imputed interest), the
Fund may have to sell portfolio securities in order to generate the cash
necessary for the required distributions. Such sales may occur at a time when
the Adviser would not have chosen to sell such securities and may result in a
taxable gain or loss.
A Fund will be required in certain cases to withhold and remit to the
United States Treasury 31% of taxable dividends or of gross proceeds from
redemptions paid to any individual Shareholder who has provided to the Fund
either an incorrect tax identification number or no number at all, or who is
subject to withholding by the Internal Revenue Service for failure properly to
report payments of interest or dividends. This withholding, known as backup
withholding, is not an additional tax, and any amounts withheld may be credited
against the Shareholder's ultimate U.S. tax liability.

<PAGE> 341
The foregoing is only a summary of some of the important federal tax
considerations generally affecting purchasers of Shares of a Fund of the Trust.
Further tax information regarding the Tax-Free Funds and the International
Equity Index Fund is included in following sections of this Statement of
Additional Information. No attempt is made to present herein a complete
explanation of the federal income tax treatment of each Fund or its
Shareholders, and this discussion is not intended as a substitute for careful
tax planning. Accordingly, prospective purchasers of Shares of a Fund are urged
to consult their tax advisers with specific reference to their own tax
situation, including the potential application of state, local and (if
applicable) foreign taxes.
The foregoing discussion and the discussion below regarding the
Tax-Free Funds and the International Equity Index Fund are based on tax laws and
regulations which are in effect on the date of this Statement of Additional
Information; such laws and regulations may be changed by legislative, judicial
or administrative action, and such changes may be retroactive.
ADDITIONAL TAX INFORMATION CONCERNING THE TAX-FREE FUNDS
- --------------------------------------------------------
The Code permits a regulated investment company which has invested, at
the close of each quarter of its taxable year, at least 50% of its assets in
tax-free Municipal Securities and other securities the interest on which is
exempt from the regular federal income tax to pay exempt-interest dividends to
its Shareholders.
The policy of each Tax-Free Fund is to distribute each year as
exempt-interest dividends substantially all the Fund's net exempt interest
income. An exempt-interest dividend is any dividend or part thereof (other than
a capital gain dividend) paid by a Tax-Free Fund and designated as an
exempt-interest dividend in a written notice mailed to Shareholders after the
close of the Fund's taxable year, which does not exceed, in the aggregate, the
net interest income from Municipal Securities and other securities the interest
on which is exempt from the regular federal income tax received by the Fund
during the taxable year. The percentage of the total dividends paid for any
taxable year which qualifies as federal exempt-interest dividends will be the
same for all Shareholders receiving dividends from a Tax-Free Fund during such
year, regardless of the period for which the Shares were held.
Exempt-interest dividends may generally be treated by a Tax-Free Fund's
Shareholders as items of interest excludable from their gross income under
Section 103(a)(1) of the Code. However, each Shareholder of a Tax-Free Fund is
advised to consult his or her tax adviser with respect to whether such
Shareholder may be treated as a "substantial user" or a "related person" to such
user under Section 147(a) with respect to facilities financed through any of the
tax-exempt obligations held by the Fund. "Substantial user" is defined under
U.S. Treasury Regulations to include a non-exempt person who regularly uses a
part of such facilities in his trade or business and (a)(i) whose gross revenues
derived with respect to the facilities financed by the issuance of bonds are
more than 5% of the total revenues derived by all users of such facilities or
(ii) who occupies more than 5% of the usable area of the facility or (b) for
whom such facilities or a part thereof were specifically constructed,
reconstructed or acquired.
B-55
<PAGE> 342
"Related persons" includes certain related natural persons, affiliated
corporations, partners and partnerships.
Dividends attributable to interest on certain private activity bonds
issued after August 7, 1986 must be included in alternative minimum taxable
income for purposes of determining liability (if any) for the alternative
minimum tax applicable to individuals and the alternative minimum tax applicable
to corporations. In the case of corporations, all tax-exempt interest dividends
will be taken into account in determining adjusted current earnings for the
purpose of computing the alternative minimum tax imposed on corporations (as
defined for federal income tax purposes).
Each Tax-Free Fund may at times purchase Municipal Securities (or other
securities the interest on which is exempt from the regular federal income tax)
at a discount from the price at which they were originally issued. For federal
income tax purposes, some or all of the market discount will be included in the
Fund's ordinary income and will be taxable to shareholders as such when it is
distributed to them.
Each Tax-Free Fund may acquire rights regarding specified portfolio
securities under puts. See "Puts." The policy of each Tax-Free Fund is to limit
its acquisition of puts to those under which the Fund will be treated for
federal income tax purposes as the owner of the Municipal Securities acquired
subject to the put and the interest on the Municipal Securities will be
tax-exempt to the Fund. Although the Internal Revenue Service has issued a
published ruling that provides some guidance regarding the tax consequences of
the purchase of puts, there is currently no guidance available from the Internal
Revenue Service that definitively establishes the tax consequences of many of
the types of puts that the Funds could acquire under the 1940 Act. Therefore,
although a Tax-Free Fund will only acquire a put after concluding that it will
have the tax consequences described above, the Internal Revenue Service could
reach a different conclusion from that of the Fund.
The foregoing is only a summary of some of the important tax
considerations generally affecting purchasers of Shares of a Tax-Free Fund.
Additional tax information concerning all Funds of the Trust is contained in the
immediately preceding section of this Statement of Additional Information. No
attempt is made to present a complete explanation of the federal income tax
treatment of each Tax-Free Fund or its Shareholders, and this discussion is not
intended as a substitute for careful tax planning. Accordingly, prospective
purchasers of Shares of a Tax-Free Fund are urged to consult their tax advisers
with specific reference to their own tax situation, including the potential
application of state, local and foreign taxes.
ADDITIONAL TAX INFORMATION CONCERNING THE INTERNATIONAL EQUITY INDEX FUND
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
Transactions of the International Equity Index Fund in foreign
currencies, foreign currency denominated debt securities and certain foreign
currency options, future contracts and forward contracts (and similar
instruments) may result in ordinary income or loss to the Fund
B-56
<PAGE> 343
for federal income tax purposes which will be taxable to the Shareholders as
such when it is distributed to them.
Gains from foreign currencies (including foreign currency options,
foreign currency futures and foreign currency forward contracts) will constitute
qualifying income for purposes of the 90% test. However, future Treasury
regulations may exclude from qualifying income foreign currency gains not
directly related to the Trust's business of investing in stock or securities
(and may further define those foreign currency transactions that are not
directly related).
Investment by the International Equity Index Fund in certain "passive
foreign investment companies" could subject the Fund to a U.S. federal income
tax or other charge on proceeds from the sale of its investment in such a
company or other distributions from such a company, which tax cannot be
eliminated by making distributions to International Equity Index Fund
Shareholders. If the International Equity Index Fund elects to treat a passive
foreign investment company as a "qualified electing fund," different rules would
apply, although the International Equity Index Fund does not expect to make such
an election. Rather, the Fund intends to avoid such tax or other charge by
making an election to mark such investments to market annually.
FOREIGN TAX CREDIT
- ------------------
If more than 50% of the International Equity Index Fund's total assets
at year end consist of the debt and equity securities of foreign corporations,
the Fund intends to elect to permit its Shareholders who are U.S. citizens to
claim a foreign tax credit or deduction on their U.S. income tax returns for
their pro rata share of foreign taxes paid by the Fund. In that case,
Shareholders will be required to include in gross income their pro rata share of
foreign taxes paid by the Fund. Each Shareholder may then claim a foreign tax
credit or a tax deduction that would offset some or all of the increased tax
liability. Generally, a credit for foreign taxes is subject to the limitation
that it may not exceed the Shareholder's U.S. tax attributable to his or her
total foreign source taxable income. For this purpose, the source of the income
to the International Equity Index Fund flows through to the Fund's Shareholders.
Gains to the International Equity Index Fund from the sale of securities
generally will be treated as derived from U.S. sources and certain currency
fluctuation gains, including fluctuation gains from foreign currency denominated
debt securities, receivables and payables, will be treated as ordinary income
derived from U.S. sources. With limited exceptions, the foreign tax credit is
allowed to offset only 90% of the alternative minimum tax imposed on
corporations and individuals. Because of these limitations, Shareholders may be
unable to claim a credit for the full amount of their proportionate share of the
foreign taxes paid by the International Equity Index Fund.
The foregoing is only a general description of the treatment of foreign
source income or foreign taxes under the United States federal income tax laws.
Because the availability of a credit or deduction depends on the particular
circumstances of each Shareholder, Shareholders are advised to consult their own
tax advisers.
B-57
<PAGE> 344
VALUATION
VALUATION OF THE MONEY MARKET AND INSTITUTIONAL MONEY MARKET FUNDS
- ------------------------------------------------------------------
The Money Market and Institutional Money Market Funds have elected to
use the amortized cost method of valuation pursuant to Rule 2a-7 under the 1940
Act. This involves valuing an instrument at its cost initially and thereafter
assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discounts or premium,
regardless of the impact of fluctuating interest rates on the market value of
the instrument. This method may result in periods during which value, as
determined by amortized cost, is higher or lower than the price each Fund would
receive if it sold the instrument. The value of securities in the Funds can be
expected to vary inversely with changes in prevailing interest rates.
Pursuant to Rule 2a-7, the Money Market and Institutional Money Market
Funds will maintain a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity appropriate to
their objective of maintaining a stable net asset value per Share, provided that
no Fund will purchase any security with a remaining maturity of more than 397
days (securities subject to repurchase agreements and certain variable or
floating rate instruments may bear longer maturities) nor maintain a
dollar-weighted, average portfolio maturity which exceeds 90 days. The Trust's
Board of Trustees has also undertaken to establish procedures reasonably
designed, taking into account current market conditions and a Fund's investment
objective, to stabilize the net asset value per Share of the Money Market Funds
for purposes of sales and redemptions at $1.00. These procedures include review
by the Trustees, at such intervals as they deem appropriate, to determine the
extent, if any, to which the net asset value per Share of each Fund calculated
by using available market quotations deviates from $1.00 per Share. In the event
such deviation exceeds one half of one percent, the Rule requires that the Board
promptly consider what action, if any, should be initiated. If the Trustees
believe that the extent of any deviation from a Fund's $1.00 amortized cost
price per Share may result in material dilution or other unfair results to new
or existing investors, they will take such steps as they consider appropriate to
eliminate or reduce to the extent reasonably practicable any such dilution or
unfair results. These steps may include selling portfolio instruments prior to
maturity, shortening the average portfolio maturity, withholding or reducing
dividends, reducing the number of a Fund's outstanding Shares without monetary
consideration, or utilizing a net asset value per Share determined by using
available market quotations.
VALUATION OF THE EQUITY FUNDS, THE BOND FUNDS AND THE MUNICIPAL BOND FUNDS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Except as noted below, investments of the Asset Allocation Fund, Equity
Funds, Bond Funds, and Municipal Bond Funds of the Trust in securities the
principal market for which is a securities exchange are valued at their market
values based upon the latest available sales price or, absent such a price, by
reference to the latest available bid and asked prices in the principal market
in which such securities are normally traded. Except as noted below, investments
of the International Equity Index Fund in securities the principal market for
which is a securities exchange are valued at the closing mid-market price on
that exchange on the day of computation.
B-58
<PAGE> 345
With regard to each of the above-mentioned Funds, securities the principal
market for which is not a securities exchange are valued at the mean of their
latest bid and ask quotations in such principal market. Securities and other
assets for which quotations either (1) are not readily available or (2) in the
case of the International Equity Index Fund are determined by that Fund's
Adviser or Sub-Adviser to not accurately reflect their value are valued at their
fair value as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures
established by and under the general supervision of the Trustees of the Trust.
Short-term securities are valued at either amortized cost or original cost plus
accrued interest, which approximates current value. Mutual fund investments of
the Funds of Funds will be valued at the most recently calculated net asset
value.
The value of a foreign security is determined in its national currency
as of the close of trading on the foreign exchange or other principal market on
which it is traded, which value is then converted into its U.S. dollar
equivalent at the foreign exchange closing mid-market rate reported in the
FINANCIAL TIMES as the closing rate for that date. When an occurrence subsequent
to the time a value of a foreign security was so established is likely to have
changed the value, then the fair value of those securities will be determined by
consideration of other factors by or under the direction of the Trustees of the
Trust or their delegates.
Securities for which market quotations are readily available will be
valued on the basis of quotations provided by dealers in such securities or
furnished by a pricing service. Securities for which market quotations are not
readily available and other assets will be valued at fair value using methods
determined in good faith by the Investment Adviser under the supervision of the
Trustees and may include yield equivalents or a pricing matrix.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING THE CALCULATION
OF PER SHARE NET ASSET VALUE
The net asset value of each Fund is determined and its Fiduciary Class,
Class A, Class B and Service Class Shares are priced as of the times specified
in each Fund's Prospectus. The net asset value per Share of each Fund's
Fiduciary Class, Class A, Class B and Service Class Shares is calculated by
determining the value of the respective Class's proportional interest in the
securities and other assets of the Fund, less (i) such Class's proportional
share of general liabilities and (ii) the liabilities allocable only to such
Class, and dividing such amount by the number of Shares of the Class
outstanding. The net asset value of a Fund's Fiduciary Class, Class A, Class B
and Service Class Shares may differ from each other due to the expense of the
Distribution and Shareholders Services Plan fee applicable to a Fund's Class A,
Class B and Service Class Shares.
ADDITIONAL PURCHASE AND REDEMPTION INFORMATION
All of the classes of Shares in each Fund are sold on a continuous
basis by The One Group Services Company (the "Distributor"), and the
Distributor has agreed to use appropriate efforts to solicit all purchase
orders.
B-59
<PAGE> 346
Fiduciary Class Shares in a Fund may be purchased, through procedures
established by the Distributor, by institutional investors, including affiliates
of BANC ONE CORPORATION and any bank, depository institution, insurance company,
pension plan or other organization authorized to act in fiduciary, advisory,
agency, custodial or similar capacities.
Class A and Class B Shares may be purchased by any investor that does
not meet the purchase eligibility criteria, described above, with respect to
Fiduciary Shares. In addition to purchasing Class A and Class B Shares directly
from the Distributor, an investor may purchase Class A and Class B Shares
through a financial institution, such as a bank, savings and loan association,
insurance company (each a "Shareholder Servicing Agent") that has established a
Shareholder servicing agreement with the Distributor, or through a
broker-dealer that has established a dealer agreement with the Distributor.
Questions concerning the eligibility requirements for each class of the Trust's
Shares may be directed to the Distributor at 1-800-480-4111.
Service Class Shares are available only in the Prime Money Market and
U.S. Treasury Securities Money Market Funds. This class of shares is available
to broker-dealers, other financial intermediaries, banks and other depository
institutions requiring special administrative and accounting services (E.G.,
sweep processing).
As described in each Prospectus for each of the Equity and Bond Funds
and the Funds of Funds, and in the Multiple Class Plan, under certain
circumstances, Class A Shares of a Fund may be purchased free of the sales
charge applicable to such Class A Shares. No sales charge is imposed on Class A
Shares of the Funds: (i) issued through reinvestment of dividends and capital
gains distributions; (ii) acquired through the exercise of exchange privileges
where a comparable sales charge has been paid for exchanged Shares; (iii)
purchased by officers, directors or trustees, retirees and employees (and their
spouses and immediate family members) of the Trust, of BANC ONE CORPORATION and
its subsidiaries and affiliates, of the Distributor and its subsidiaries and
affiliates, or of an investment sub-adviser of a Fund of the Trust and such
sub-adviser's subsidiaries and affiliates; (iv) sold to affiliates of BANC ONE
CORPORATION and certain accounts (other than Individual Retirement Accounts) for
which financial organizations, including any bank, depository institution,
insurance company, pension plan or other organization are authorized to act in
fiduciary, advisory, agency, custodial or similar capacities, or purchased by
investment advisers, financial planners or other intermediaries who have a
dealer arrangement with the Distributor, who place trades for their own accounts
or for the accounts of their clients and who charge a management, consulting or
other fee for their services, as well as clients of such investment advisers,
financial planners or other intermediaries who place trades for their own
accounts if the accounts are linked to the master account of such investment
adviser, financial planner or other intermediary; (v) purchased with proceeds
from the recent redemption of Fiduciary Class Shares of a Fund of the Trust or
acquired in an exchange of Fiduciary Class Shares of a Fund for Class A Shares
of the same Fund; (vi) purchased with proceeds from the recent redemption of
Shares of a mutual Fund
B-60
<PAGE> 347
(other than a Fund of the Trust) for which a sales charge was paid; (vii)
purchased in an Individual Retirement Account with the proceeds of a
distribution from an employee benefit plan, provided that, at the time of
distribution, the employee benefit plan had plan assets invested in a Fund of
the Trust; (viii) purchased with Trust assets; (ix) purchased in accounts as to
which a bank or broker-dealer charges an asset allocation fee, provided the bank
or broker-dealer has an agreement with the Distributor; (x) directly purchased
with the proceeds of a distribution on a bond for which a BANC ONE CORPORATION
affiliate bank or trust company is the Trustee or Paying Agent; or (xi)
purchased in connection with plans of reorganization of a Fund, such as mergers,
asset acquistions and exchange offers to which a Fund is a party.
An investor relying upon any of the categories of waivers of the sales
charge must qualify for such waiver in advance of the purchase with the
Distributor or the financial institution or intermediary through which Shares
are purchased by the investor.
The waiver of the sales charge under circumstances (v), (vi), and (vii)
above applies only if the purchase is made within 60 days of the redemption and
if conditions imposed by the Distributor are met. The waiver policy with respect
to the purchase of Shares through the use of proceeds from a recent redemption
or distribution as described in clauses (v), (vi), and (vii) above will not be
continued indefinitely and may be discontinued at any time without notice.
Investors should call the Distributor at 1-800-480-4111 to determine whether
they are eligible to purchase Shares without paying a sales charge through the
use of proceeds from a recent redemption or distribution as described above, and
to confirm continued availability of these waiver policies prior to initiating
the procedures described in clauses (v), (vi), and (vii).
Fiduciary Class Shareholders of a Fund may exchange their Shares for
Class A Shares of the same Fund or for Class A Shares or Fiduciary Class Shares
of another Fund of the Trust. Class A Shareholders may exchange their Shares for
Fiduciary Class Shares of a Fund or for Fiduciary Class or Class A Shares of
another Fund or the Trust, if the Shareholder is eligible to purchase such
Shares. The exchange privilege may be exercised only in those states
where the Shares of the Fund or such other Fund may be legally sold. All
exchanges discussed herein are made at the net asset value of the exchanged
Shares, except as provided below. The Trust does not impose a charge for
processing exchanges of Shares. If a Shareholder seeks to exchange Class A
Shares of a Fund that does not impose a sales charge for Class A Shares of a
Fund that does, or the Fund being exchanged into has a higher sales charge, the
Shareholder will be required to pay a sales charge in the amount equal to the
difference between the sales charge applicable to the Fund into which the Shares
are being exchanged and any sales charge previously paid for the exchanged
Shares, including any sales charges incurred on any earlier exchanges of the
Shares (unless such sales charge is otherwise waived as provided above). The
exchange of Fiduciary Class Shares for Class A Shares also will require payment
of the sales charge unless the sales charge is waived, as provided above. If a
Shareholder (no longer eligible to purchase Fiduciary Shares) purchases Class A
Shares of a Fund, the Shareholder will be subject to Distribution and
Shareholder Services Plan Fees.
B-61
<PAGE> 348
Class B Shareholders of a Fund may exchange their Shares for Class B
Shares of any other Fund of the Trust on the basis of the net asset value of the
exchanged Class B Shares, without the payment of any Contingent Deferred Sales
Charge that might otherwise be due upon redemption of the outstanding Class B
Shares. The newly acquired Class B Shares will be subject to the higher
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge of either the Fund from which the Shares were
exchanged or the Fund into which the Shares were exchanged. With respect to
outstanding Class B Shares as to which previous exchanges have taken place,
"higher Contingent Deferred Sales Charge" shall mean the higher of the
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge applicable to either the Fund the Shares are
exchanging into or any other Fund from which the Shares previously have been
exchanged. For purposes of computing the Contingent Deferred Sales Charge that
may be payable upon a disposition of the newly acquired Class B Shares, the
holding period for outstanding Class B Shares of the Fund from which the
exchange was made is "tacked" to the holding period of the newly acquired Class
B Shares. For purposes of calculating the holding period applicable to the newly
acquired Class B Shares, the newly acquired Class B Shares shall be deemed to
have been issued on the date of receipt of the Shareholder's order to purchase
the outstanding Class B Shares of the Fund from which the initial exchange was
made.
Service Class Shareholders may not exchange their Service Class Shares
for Shares of any other class, nor may Shares of any other class be exchanged
for Service Class Shares.
Shares of the Institutional Money Market Funds may be purchased by
commercial and retail institutional investors, including affiliates of BANC ONE
CORPORATION, that have opened an account with the Transfer Agent either directly
or through a Shareholder Servicing Agent, by persons whose individual net worth,
or joint net worth with that person's spouse, at the time of his or her purchase
exceeds $1,000,000, or by persons whose individual annual income, or joint
annual income with that person's spouse, at the time of his or her purchase
exceeds $200,000.
The Trust may suspend the right of redemption or postpone the date of
payment for Shares during any period when (a) trading on the New York Stock
Exchange (the "Exchange") is restricted by applicable rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission, (b) the Exchange is closed for other
than customary weekend and holiday closings, (c) the Securities and Exchange
Commission has by order permitted such suspension, or (d) an emergency exists as
determined by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Trust may redeem Shares involuntarily if redemption appears
appropriate in light of the Trust's responsibilities under the 1940 Act. (See
"Valuation of the Money Market and Institutional Money Market Funds and the
Municipal Money Market Fund" above.)

supervises and administers the Fund's investment program, subject to the

All investment advisory services are provided to the Funds by the
Adviser pursuant to an investment advisory agreement dated January 11, 1993 (the
"Investment Advisory Agreement"). The Investment Advisory Agreement (and the
Sub-Investment Advisory Agreement described immediately following, collectively,
the "Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements") will continue in effect as to a
particular Fund from year to year, if such continuance is approved at least
annually by the Trust's Board of Trustees or by vote of a majority of the
outstanding Shares of such Fund (as defined under "ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION--Miscellaneous" in this Statement of Additional Information), and a
majority of the Trustees who are not parties to the respective investment
advisory agreements or interested persons (as defined in the Investment Company
Act of 1940) of any party to the respective investment advisory agreements by
votes cast in person at a meeting called for such purpose. The Advisory and
Sub-Advisory Agreements were renewed by the Trust's Board of Trustees at their
quarterly meeting on August 17, 1995. The Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements
are terminable as to a particular Fund at any time on 60 days' written notice
without penalty by the Trustees, by vote of a majority of the outstanding Shares
of that Fund, or by the Fund's Adviser or Sub-Adviser as the case may be. The
Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements also terminate automatically in the event
of any assignment, as defined in the 1940 Act.
The Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements each provide that the
respective Adviser or Sub-Adviser shall not be liable for any error of judgment
or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Trust in connection with the
performance of the respective investment advisory agreements, except a loss
resulting from a breach of fiduciary duty with respect to the receipt of
compensation for services or a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad
faith, or gross negligence on the part of the Adviser or Sub-Adviser in the
performance of its duties, or from reckless disregard by it of its duties and
obligations thereunder.
Goldman Sachs Asset Management, formerly the investment Sub-Adviser to
the Ultra Short-Term Income Fund, received $38,737 in sub-advisory fees from the
Adviser for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1993, $417,950 in sub-advisory fees
from the Adviser for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994, and $176,570 in
sub-advisory fees from the Adviser for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995.
Boston International Advisors, Inc.

GLASS-STEAGALL ACT
- ------------------
In 1971 the United States Supreme Court held in INVESTMENT COMPANY
INSTITUTE V. CAMP that the federal statute commonly referred to as the
Glass-Steagall Act prohibits a national bank from operating a Fund for the
collective investment of managing agency accounts. Subsequently, the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Board") issued a regulation and
interpretation to the effect that the Glass-Steagall Act and such decision: (a)
forbid a bank holding company registered under the Federal Bank Holding Company
Act of 1956 (the "Holding Company Act") or any non-bank affiliate thereof from
sponsoring, organizing, or controlling a registered, open-end investment company
continuously engaged in the issuance of its Shares, but (b) do not prohibit such
a holding company or affiliate from acting as investment adviser, transfer
agent, and custodian to such an investment company. In 1981, the United States
Supreme Court held in BOARD OF GOVERNORS OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM V.
INVESTMENT COMPANY INSTITUTE that the Board did not exceed its authority under
the Holding Company Act when it adopted its regulation and interpretation
authorizing bank holding companies and their non-bank affiliates to act as
investment advisers to registered closed-end investment companies. In the BOARD
OF GOVERNORS case, the Supreme Court also stated that if a national bank
complied with the restrictions imposed by the Board in its regulation and
interpretation authorizing bank holding companies and their non-bank affiliates
to act as investment advisers to investment companies, a national bank
performing investment advisory services for an investment company would not
violate the Glass-Steagall Act. In addition, state securities laws on this issue
may differ from the interpretations of federal law expressed herein and banks
and financial institutions may be required to register as dealers pursuant to
state law.
In the Investment Advisory Agreement with the Trust, the Adviser has
represented to the Trust that it possesses the legal authority to perform the
investment advisory services contemplated by the agreement and described in the
Prospectuses and this Statement of Additional Information without violation of
applicable statutes and regulations. Future changes in either federal or state
statutes and regulations relating to the permissible activities of banks or bank
holding companies and the subsidiaries or affiliates of those entities, as well
as further judicial or administrative decisions or interpretations of present
and future statutes and regulations, could prevent or restrict the Adviser from
continuing to perform such services for the Trust. Depending upon the nature of
any changes in the services which could be provided by the Adviser, the Board of
Trustees of the Trust would review the Trust's relationship with the Adviser and
consider taking all action necessary in the circumstances.
Should future legislative, judicial, or administrative action prohibit
or restrict the proposed activities of BANC ONE CORPORATION subsidiary banks or
their correspondent banks in connection with customer purchases of Shares of the
Trust, these banks might be required to alter materially or discontinue the
services offered by them to customers. It is not anticipated, however, that any
change in the Trust's method of operations would affect its net asset value per
Share or result in financial losses to any customer.
PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
- ----------------------
Pursuant to the Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements, the respective
Adviser and Sub-Advisers determine, subject to the general supervision of the
Board of Trustees of the Trust and
B-71
<PAGE> 358
in accordance with each Fund's investment objective and restrictions, which
securities are to be purchased and sold by each such Fund and which brokers are
to be eligible to execute its portfolio transactions. Purchases and sales of
portfolio securities with respect to the Money Market Funds, the Bond Funds, the
Funds of Funds and (to a varying degree) the Asset Allocation Fund usually are
principal transactions in which portfolio securities are purchased directly from
the issuer or from an underwriter or market maker for the securities. Purchases
from underwriters of portfolio securities generally include (but not in the case
of mutual fund shares purchased by the Funds of Funds) a commission or
concession paid by the issuer to the underwriter and purchases from dealers
serving as market makers may include the spread between the bid and asked price.
Transactions on stock exchanges (other than certain foreign stock exchanges)
involve the payment of negotiated brokerage commissions. Transactions in the
over-the-counter market are generally principal transactions with dealers. With
respect to the over-the-counter market, the Trust, where possible, will deal
directly with the dealers who make a market in the securities involved except in
those circumstances where better price and execution are available elsewhere.
While the Trust's Advisers generally seek competitive spreads or commissions,
the Trust may not necessarily pay the lowest spread or commission available on
each transaction, for reasons discussed below.
Allocation of transactions, including their frequency, to various
dealers is determined by each Adviser and Sub-Adviser with respect to the Funds
it serves based on its best judgment and in a manner deemed fair and reasonable
to Shareholders. The primary consideration is prompt execution of orders in an
effective manner at the most favorable price. Subject to this consideration,
dealers who provide supplemental investment research to an Adviser or
Sub-Adviser of the Trust may receive orders for transactions by the Trust.
Information so received is in addition to and not in lieu of services required
to be performed by such Adviser or Sub-Adviser and does not reduce the advisory
fees payable to such Adviser. Such information may be useful to such Adviser or
Sub-Adviser in serving both the Trust and other clients and, conversely,
supplemental information obtained by the placement of business of other clients
may be useful to such Adviser in carrying out its obligations to the Trust.
The Trust will not execute portfolio transactions through, acquire
portfolio securities issued by, make savings deposits in, or enter into
repurchase or reverse repurchase agreements with its Advisers or their
affiliates except as may be permitted under the 1940 Act, and will not give
preference to correspondents of BANC ONE CORPORATION subsidiary banks with
respect to such transactions, securities, savings deposits, repurchase
agreements, and reverse repurchase agreements.
During the Trust's fiscal year ended June 30, 1993, the Trust paid
brokerage commissions to SEI Financial Services Company, the former Distributor
for the Trust, for brokerage services provided. The Income Equity Fund, the
Disciplined Value Fund, the Growth Opportunities Fund, and the Large Company
Growth Fund paid SEI Financial Services Company $16,480, $103,796, $15,502 and
$21,636, respectively, in brokerage commissions during the Trust's fiscal year
ended June 30, 1993. During the Trust's fiscal year ended June 30, 1994, the
Trust paid no brokerage commissions to SEI Financial Services Company for
brokerage services provided.

During the Trust's fiscal year ended June 30, 1993, the Trust paid

brokerage services provided. The Asset Allocation Fund, Disciplined Value Fund,
Growth Opportunities Fund and Large Company Value Fund paid $32, $5,889, $2,632
and $1,879 respectively, to Goldman in brokerage commissions.
During the Trust's fiscal year ended June 30, 1994, the Trust paid
brokerage commissions to Goldman for brokerage services provided. The Asset
Allocation Fund, Disciplined Value Fund, Growth Opportunities Fund and Large
Company Value Fund paid $419, $11,504, $17,688 and $9,208 respectively, to
Goldman in brokerage commissions.

Investment decisions for each Fund of the Trust are made independently
from those for the other Funds or any other investment company or account
managed by the Trust's Adviser or Sub-Advisers. Any such other investment
company or account may also invest in the same securities as the Trust. When a
purchase or sale of the same security is made at substantially the same time on
behalf of a given Fund and another Fund, investment company or account (or, in
the case of the International Equity Index Fund, another account), the
transaction will be averaged as to price, and available investments allocated as
to amount, in a manner which the Adviser or Sub-Adviser of the given Fund
believes to be equitable to the Fund(s) and such other investment company or
account. In some instances, this investment procedure may adversely affect the
price paid or received by a Fund or the size of the position obtained by a Fund.
To the extent permitted by law, the Trust's Adviser and Sub-Advisers may
aggregate the securities to be sold or purchased by it for a Fund with those to
be sold or purchased by it for other Funds or for other investment companies or
accounts in order to obtain best execution. As provided by the Investment
Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements, in making investment recommendations for
the Trust, the Trust's Adviser and Sub-Advisers will not inquire or take into
consideration whether an issuer of securities proposed for purchase or sale by
the Trust is a customer of such Adviser or Sub-Advisers or their parents or
subsidiaries or affiliates and, in dealing with its commercial customers, each
Adviser and Sub-Adviser and its parent, subsidiaries, and affiliates will not
inquire or take into consideration whether securities of such customers are held
by the Trust.

ADMINISTRATOR
- -------------
The One Group Services Company serves as Administrator (the
"Administrator") to each Fund of the Trust pursuant to a Management and
Administration Agreement with the Trust (the "Administration Agreement"). The
Board of Trustees of the Trust approved The One Group Services Company as the
sole Administrator for each Fund beginning December 1, 1995. The Administrator
assists in supervising all operations of each Fund to which it serves as
Administrator (other than those performed under the respective investment
advisory agreements and Custodian and Transfer Agency Agreements for that Fund).
Under the Administration Agreement, the Administrator has agreed to
price the portfolio securities of each Fund it serves and to compute the net
asset value and net income of such Funds on a daily basis, to maintain office
facilities for the Trust, to maintain each such Fund's financial accounts and
records, and to furnish the Trust statistical and research data, data
processing, clerical, accounting, and bookkeeping services, and certain other
services required by the Trust with respect to each such Fund. The Administrator
prepares annual and semi-annual reports to the Securities and Exchange
Commission, prepares federal and State tax returns, prepares filings with State
securities commissions, and generally assists in all aspects of the Trust's
operations other than those performed under the investment advisory agreements,
and Custodian and Transfer Agency Agreements. Under the Administration
Agreement, the Administrator may delegate all or any part of its
responsibilities thereunder.
The Adviser also serves as Sub-Administrator to each Fund of the Trust,
pursuant to an agreement between the Administrator and the Adviser. Pursuant to
this agreement, the Adviser performs many of the Administrator's duties, for
which the Adviser receives a fee paid by the Administrator.
The Trust paid fees for administrative services to 440 Financial and to
SEI Financial Management, previous Administrators of the Trust, to The Winsbury
Company, the prior Administrator to the predecessor funds of the Large Company
Growth and Intermediate Bond Funds, and to Federated Administrative Services,
the prior Administrator to the predecessor Fund of the Kentucky Municipal Bond
Fund, for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1995, 1994 and 1993 as follows:

Unless sooner terminated, the Administration Agreement between the
Trust and The One Group Services Company will continue in effect through
November 30, 1996. The Administration Agreement thereafter shall be renewed
automatically for successive one year terms, unless written notice not to renew
is given by the non-renewing party to the other party at least sixty days prior
to the expiration of the then-current term. The Administration Agreement will be
reviewed and ratified at least annually by the Trust's Board of Trustees,
provided that the Administration Agreement is also reviewed and ratified by the
majority of the Trust's Trustees who are not parties to the Administration
Agreement or interested persons (as defined in the 1940 Act) of any party to the
Administration Agreement, by vote cast in person at a meeting called for the
purpose of reviewing and ratifying the Administration Agreement. The
Administration Agreement is terminable with respect to a particular Trust only
upon mutual agreement of the parties to the Administration Agreement and for
cause (as defined in the Administration Agreement) by the party alleging cause,
on not less than sixty days' notice by the Trust's Board of Trustees or by The
One Group Services Company.
The Administration Agreement provides that the Administrator shall not
be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or any loss suffered by
the Trust in connection with the matters to which the Administration Agreement
relates, except a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith, or
negligence in the performance of its duties, or from the reckless disregard by
it of its obligations and duties thereunder.
EXPENSES
- --------
If total expenses borne by any one of the Funds in any fiscal year
exceed expense limitations imposed by applicable State securities regulations,
the Fund's Adviser and the Administrator will reimburse that Fund by the amount
of such excess in proportion to their respective fees. As of the date of this
Prospectus, under the most restrictive State expense limitation applicable to
the Trust, the annual expenses of the Trust may not exceed the total of two and
one-half percent (2.5%) of the first thirty million dollars ($30,000,000) of the
Trust's average net assets, plus two percent (2.0%) of the next seventy million
dollars ($70,000,000) of the Trust's average net assets, plus one and one-half
percent (1.5%) of the remaining amount of the Trust's average net assets. Any
expense reimbursements will be estimated daily and reconciled and paid on a
monthly basis. Fees charged to customers by certain entities in connection with
investments in a Fund on a customer's behalf are not included within Fund
expenses for purposes of any such expense limitation.
DISTRIBUTOR
- -----------
The One Group Services Company serves as Distributor to each Fund of
the Trust pursuant to its Distribution Agreement with the Trust (the
"Distribution Agreement"). The Board of Trustees of the Trust approved The One
Group Services Company as the sole Distributor beginning November 1, 1995.
Unless otherwise terminated, the Distribution Agreement will continue in effect
until November 30, 1996 and will continue from year to year if approved at least
annually (i) by the Trust's Board of Trustees or by the vote of a majority
B-82
<PAGE> 369
of the outstanding Shares of the Funds (see "ADDITIONAL INFORMATION--
Miscellaneous," in this Statement of Additional Information) that are parties to
the Distribution Agreement, and (ii) by the vote of a majority of the Trustees
of the Trust who are not parties to the Distribution Agreement or interested
persons of any such party, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of
voting on such approval. The agreement may be terminated in the event of its
assignment, as defined in the 1940 Act. The One Group Services Company is a
broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and is a
member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
DISTRIBUTION PLAN
- -----------------
The operation and fees with respect to Class A Shares, Class B Shares,
and Service Class Shares of the Trust payable under the Trust's Distribution and
Shareholder Services Plans, to which Class A Shares, Class B Shares, and Service
Class Shares of each Fund of the Trust are subject, are described in each such
Fund's Prospectuses and in the Multiple Class Plan.
The Distribution and Shareholder Services Plan with respect to Class A
Shares (the "Distribution Plan") was initially approved on July 28, 1989 by the
Trust's Board of Trustees, including a majority of the Trustees who are not
interested persons of the Trust (as defined in the 1940 Act) and who have no
direct or indirect financial interest in the Distribution Plan (the "Independent
Trustees"). The Distribution Plan originally applied to the single class of
Shares of each Fund of the Trust that existed prior to the offering of the
Funds' Shares as four separate classes. An amendment to the Distribution Plan
was approved by the Independent Trustees on October 21, 1991, and became
effective on February 7, 1992. Such amendment limited fees under the
Distribution Plan only to the Class A Shares of each Fund. The Distribution Plan
was amended again on February 11, 1993 in order to make Retirement Class Shares
(now the Service Class Shares) subject to distribution fees. The Distribution
Plan was further amended on February 29, 1996, to eliminate certain "defensive"
provisions of the Distribution Plan. A Distribution and Shareholder Services
Plan (the "Class B Distribution Plan") for Class B Shares was initially approved
on August 12, 1993 by the Independent Trustees. The Class B Distribution Plan
was re-executed on December 13, 1995. Prior to February 7, 1992, distribution
fees were waived with respect to every Fund of the Trust except the U.S.
Treasury Securities Money Market Fund and the Prime Money Market Fund.
During the fiscal year ending June 30, 1995, the distribution fees paid
by the Class A, Class B and Service Class Shares (formerly Retirement Class
Shares) of the Trust to 440 Financial Distributors, the previous Distributor to
the Trust and to Federated Administrative Services, the distributor to the
predecessor Fund of the Kentucky Municipal Bond Fund, the Trademark Kentucky
Municipal Bond Fund, were as follows:

In accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, the Distribution Plan
and Class B Distribution Plan may be terminated with respect to the Class A
Shares, Class B Shares or Service Class Shares of any Fund by a vote of a
majority of the Independent Trustees, or by a vote of a majority of the
outstanding Class A Shares, Class B Shares or Service Class Shares,
respectively, of that Fund. The Distribution Plan and Class B Distribution Plan
may be amended by vote of the Trust's Board of Trustees, including a majority of
the Independent Trustees, cast in person at a meeting called for such purpose,
except that any change in the Distribution Plan or Class B Distribution Plan
that would materially increase the distribution fee with respect to the Class A
Shares, Class B Shares or Service Class Shares of a Fund requires the approval
of that Fund's Class A, Class B or Service Class Shareholders, respectively. The
Trust's Board of Trustees will review on a quarterly and annual basis written
reports of the amounts received and expended under the Distribution Plan
(including amounts expended by the Distributor to Participating Organizations
pursuant to the Servicing Agreements entered into under the Distribution Plan)
indicating the purposes for which such expenditures were made.
CUSTODIAN AND TRANSFER AGENT
- ----------------------------
Cash and securities owned by the Funds of the Trust are held by State
Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") as Custodian. State Street serves
the respective Funds as Custodian pursuant to a Custodian Agreement with the
Trust (the "Custodian Agreement"). Under the Custodian Agreement, State Street
(i) maintains a separate account or accounts in the name of each Fund; (ii)
makes receipts and disbursements of money on behalf of each Fund; (iii) collects
and receives all income and other payments and distributions on account of the
Funds' portfolio securities; (iv) responds to correspondence from security
brokers and others relating to its duties; and (v) makes periodic reports to the
Trust's Board of Trustees concerning the Trust's operations. State Street may,
at its own expense, open and maintain a sub-custody account or accounts on
behalf of the Trust, provided that State Street shall remain liable for the
performance of all of its duties under the Custodian Agreement.
Bank One Trust Company, N.A. serves as Sub-Custodian in connection with
the Trust's securities lending activities, pursuant to an agreement between
State Street and Bank One Trust Company. Bank One Trust Company receives a fee
paid by the Trust.
Rules adopted under the 1940 Act permit the Trust to maintain its
securities and cash in the custody of certain eligible banks and securities
depositories. The Trust intends to select foreign custodians or sub-custodians
to maintain foreign securities of the International Equity Index Fund pursuant
to such rules, following a consideration of a number of factors, including, but
not limited to, the reliability and financial stability of the institution; the
ability of the institution to perform custodial services for the Trust; the
reputation of the institution in its national market; the political and economic
stability of the country in which the institution is located; and the risks of
potential nationalization or expropriation of Trust assets. In addition, the
1940 Act requires that foreign bank sub-custodians, among other things have
B-86
<PAGE> 373
Shareholder equity in excess of $200 million, have no lien on the Trust's assets
and maintain adequate and accessible records.
State Street Bank & Trust ("State Street") serves as Transfer Agent and
Dividend Disbursing Agent for each Fund pursuant to Transfer Agency Agreements
with the Trust (the "Transfer Agency Agreement"). Under the Transfer Agency
Agreements, State Street has agreed (i) to issue and redeem Shares of the Trust;
(ii) to address and mail all communications by the Trust to its Shareholders,
including reports to Shareholders, dividend and distribution notices, and proxy
material for its meetings of Shareholders; (iii) to respond to correspondence or
inquiries by Shareholders and others relating to its duties; (iv) to maintain
Shareholder accounts and certain sub-accounts; and (v) to make periodic reports
to the Trust's Board of Trustees concerning the Trust's operations.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
DESCRIPTION OF SHARES
- ---------------------
The Trust is a Massachusetts Business Trust. The Trust's Declaration of
Trust was filed with the Secretary of State of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
on May 23, 1985 and authorizes the Board of Trustees to issue an unlimited
number of Shares, which are units of beneficial interest, without par value. The
Trust's Declaration of Trust authorizes the Board of Trustees to establish one
or more series of Shares of the Trust, and to classify or reclassify any series
into one or more classes by setting or changing in any one or more respects the
preferences, designations, conversion, or other rights, restrictions, or
limitations as to dividends, conditions of redemption, qualifications, or other
terms applicable to the Shares of such class, subject to those matters expressly
provided for in the Declaration of Trust, as amended, with respect to the Shares
of each series of the Trust. The Trust presently includes 39 series of Shares,
which represent interests in the Prime Money Market Fund, the U.S. Treasury
Securities Money Market Fund, the Municipal Money Market Fund, the Ohio
Municipal Money Market Fund, the Income Equity Fund, the Disciplined Value Fund,
the Growth Opportunities Fund, the Value Growth Fund, the Gulf South Growth
Fund, the Large Company Value Fund, the Large Company Growth Fund, the
International Equity Index Fund, the Equity Index Fund, the Asset Allocation
Fund, the Income Bond Fund, the Limited Volatility Bond Fund, the Intermediate
Bond Fund, the Government Bond Fund, the Ultra Short-Term Income Fund, the
Income Fund, the Investor Growth Fund, the Investor Growth & Income Fund, the
Investor Aggressive Growth Fund, the Investor Fixed Income Fund, the Investor
Conservative Growth Fund, the Investor Balanced Fund, the Municipal Income Fund,
the Intermediate Tax-Free Bond Fund, the Ohio Municipal Bond Fund, the Texas
Tax-Free Bond Fund, the West Virginia Tax-Free Bond Fund, the Kentucky Municipal
Bond Fund, the Louisiana Municipal Bond Fund, the Arizona Tax-Free Bond Fund,
the Treasury Money Market Fund, the Treasury Only Money Market Fund, the
Government Money Market Fund, the Tax Exempt Money Market Fund and the
Institutional Prime Money Market Fund. The Funds of the Trust (other than the
Institutional Money Market Funds, the U.S. Treasury Securities Money Market Fund
and the Prime Money Market Fund) offer Shares in three separate classes:
Fiduciary Shares, Class A Shares and Class B Shares. The U.S. Treasury
Securities Money Market Fund and the Prime Money Market Fund offer Fiduciary
Shares, Class A Shares and Service Class Shares. See the relevant Prospectus for
those Funds for more details.
B-88
<PAGE> 375
Shares have no subscription or preemptive rights and only such
conversion or exchange rights as the Board may grant in its discretion. When
issued for payment as described in the Prospectus and this Statement of
Additional Information, the Trust's Shares will be fully paid and
non-assessable. In the event of a liquidation or dissolution of the Trust,
Shares of a Fund are entitled to receive the assets available for distribution
belonging to the Fund, and a proportionate distribution, based upon the relative
asset values of the respective Funds, of any general assets not belonging to any
particular Fund which are available for distribution.
Rule 18f-2 under the 1940 Act provides that any matter required to be
submitted to the holders of the outstanding voting securities of an investment
company such as the Trust shall not be deemed to have been effectively acted
upon unless approved by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares of
each Fund affected by the matter. For purposes of determining whether the
approval of a majority of the outstanding Shares of a Fund will be required in
connection with a matter, a Fund will be deemed to be affected by a matter
unless it is clear that the interests of each Fund in the matter are identical,
or that the matter does not affect any interest of the Fund. Under Rule 18f-2,
the approval of an investment advisory agreement or any change in investment
policy would be effectively acted upon with respect to a Fund only if approved
by a majority of the outstanding Shares of such Fund. However, Rule 18f-2 also
provides that the ratification of independent public accountants, the approval
of principal underwriting contracts, and the election of Trustees may be
effectively acted upon by Shareholders of the Trust voting without regard to
series.
Class A Shares, Class B Shares and Service Class Shares of a Fund have
exclusive voting rights with respect to matters pertaining to the Fund's
Distribution Plan.
SHAREHOLDER AND TRUSTEE LIABILITY
- ---------------------------------
Under Massachusetts law, holders of units of beneficial interest in a
business trust may, under certain circumstances, be held personally liable as
partners for the obligations of the trust. However, the Trust's Declaration of
Trust provides that Shareholders shall not be subject to any personal liability
for the obligations of the Trust, and that every written agreement, obligation,
instrument, or undertaking made by the Trust shall contain a provision to the
effect that the Shareholders are not personally liable thereunder. The
Declaration of Trust provides for indemnification out of the trust property of
any Shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of his being or having
been a Shareholder. The Declaration of Trust also provides that the Trust shall,
upon request, assume the defense of any claim made against any Shareholder for
any act or obligation of the Trust, and shall satisfy any judgment thereon.
Thus, the risk of a Shareholder incurring financial loss on account of
Shareholder liability is limited to circumstances in which the Trust itself
would be unable to meet its obligations.
The Declaration of Trust states further that no Trustee, officer, or
agent of the Trust shall be personally liable in connection with the
administration or preservation of the assets
B-89
<PAGE> 376
of the trust or the conduct of the Trust's business; nor shall any Trustee,
officer, or agent be personally liable to any person for any action or failure
to act except for his own bad faith, willful misfeasance, gross negligence, or
reckless disregard of his duties. The Declaration of Trust also provides that
all persons having any claim against the Trustees or the Trust shall look solely
to the assets of the trust for payment.
CALCULATION OF PERFORMANCE DATA
- -------------------------------
Each Money Market Fund and the Treasury Only and Government Money
Market Funds' yield was computed with respect to each class of Shares by
determining the percentage net change, excluding capital changes, in the value
of an investment in one Share of the particular class of the Fund over the base
period, and multiplying the net change by 365/7 (or approximately 52 weeks). The
effective yield of each class of each Fund represents a compounding of the yield
by adding 1 to the number representing the percentage change in value of the
investment during the base period, raising that sum to a power equal to 365/7,
and subtracting 1 from the result. No performance data is available with respect
to the Tax Exempt Money Market, Treasury Money Market and Institutional Prime
Money Market Funds because those Funds had not commenced operations as of June
30, 1995.
The tax equivalent yields for the classes of the Municipal Money
Market, Ohio Municipal Money Market, and Tax Exempt Money Market Funds are
computed by dividing that portion of the Fund's yield (with respect to a
particular class) which is tax-exempt by 1 minus a stated income tax rate and
adding the product to that portion, if any, of the yield of the Fund (with
respect to a particular class) that is not tax-exempt. The tax equivalent yields
for the classes of the Municipal Money Market Fund contained in the preceding
paragraph were computed based on an assumed effective federal income tax rate of
39.6%. No such data was provided for the Tax Exempt Money Market Fund because it
had not commenced operations as of June 30, 1995. The tax equivalent effective
yield for the classes of the Municipal Money Market Fund, Ohio Municipal Money
Market Fund, and Tax Exempt Money Market Funds are computed by dividing that
portion of the effective yield of the Fund (with respect to a particular class)
which is tax-exempt by 1 minus a stated income tax rate and adding the product
to that portion, if any, of the effective yield of the Fund (with respect to a
particular class) that is not tax-exempt.
Performance information showing a Fund's total return and/or 30-day
yield with respect to a particular class may be presented from time to time in
advertising and sales literature regarding the Equity Funds, the Bond Funds, the
Funds of Funds, and the Municipal Bond Funds. A 30-day yield is calculated by
dividing the net investment income
B-90
<PAGE> 377
per-share earned during the 30-day base period by the maximum offering price per
share on the last day of the period, according to the following formula:
a-b
30-Day Yield = 2[( ----- +1)6-1]
cd
In the above formula, "a" represents dividends and interest earned by a
particular class during the 30-day base period; "b" represents expenses accrued
to a particular class for the 30-day base period (net of reimbursements); "c"
represents the average daily number of Shares of a particular class outstanding
during the 30-day base period that were entitled to receive dividends; and "d"
represents the maximum offering price per share of a particular class on the
last day of the 30-day base period.
From time to time the tax equivalent 30-day yield of a particular class
of a Municipal Bond Fund may be presented in advertising and sales literature.
The tax equivalent 30-day yield will be computed by dividing that portion of a
Fund's yield (respecting a particular class) which is tax-exempt by 1 minus a
stated income tax rate and adding the product to that portion, if any, of the
yield of the Fund (respecting a particular class) that is not tax-exempt. The
tax equivalent 30-day yields for a Municipal Bond Fund (respecting a particular
class) will, unless otherwise noted, be computed based on an assumed effective
federal income tax rate of 31%. No tax equivalent 30-day yield information is
available for the West Virginia Tax-Free Bond, Texas Tax-Free Bond and Arizona
Tax-Free Bond.
A Fund's respective cumulative total return and average annual total
return was determined by calculating the change in the value of a hypothetical
$1,000 investment in a particular class of the Fund for each of the periods
shown. Cumulative total return for a particular class of a Fund is computed by
determining the rate of return over the applicable period that would equate the
initial amount invested to the ending redeemable value of the investment. The
cumulative return is calculated as the total dollar increase or decrease in the
value of an account assuming reinvestment of all distributions divided by the
original initial investment. The average annual return for a particular class of
a Fund is computed by determining the average annual compounded rate of return
over the applicable period that would equate the initial amount invested to the
ending redeemable value of the investment. The ending redeemable value includes
dividends and capital gain distributions reinvested at net asset value. The
resulting percentages indicated the positive or negative investment results that
an investor would have experienced from changes in share price and reinvestment
of dividends and capital gains distributions.
Performance information showing a Fund's and/or particular Class's
distribution rate may be presented from time to time in advertising and sales
literature regarding the Bond Funds and Equity Funds. The distribution rate is
calculated as follows:
B-91
<PAGE> 378
a
---
distribution yield = (b) * 365
----------
c
In the formula, "a" represents dividends distributed by a particular
class during that period; "b" represents month end offer price or net asset
value for a particular class; "c" represents the number of days in the period
being calculated. "365" is the number of days in a year, used to annualize the
distribution yield.
Performance will fluctuate from time to time and is not necessarily
representative of future results. Accordingly, a Fund's performance may not
provide for comparison with bank deposits or other investments that pay a fixed
return for a stated period of time. Performance is a function of a Fund's
quality, composition, and maturity, as well as expenses allocated to the Fund.
Fees imposed upon customer accounts at a bank, with regard to Fiduciary Class
Shares and Service Class Shares, or a Participating Organization, with regard to
Class A and Class B Shares, will reduce a Fund's effective yield to customers.
Performance data for the Funds through June 30, 1995 (calculated as
described above) is as follows:

THE MONEY MARKET AND INSTITUTIONAL MONEY MARKET FUNDS may quote actual total
return performance in advertising and other types of literature compared to
indices or averages of alternative financial products available to prospective
investors. The performance comparisons may include the average return of various
bank instruments, some of which may carry certain return guarantees offered by
leading banks and thrifts, as monitored by the BANK RATE MONITOR, and those of
corporate and government security price indices of various durations prepared by
She arson Lehman Brothers, Salomon Brothers, Inc. and the IBC/Donoghue
organization. These indices are not managed for any investment goals.
The Money Market and Institutional Money Market Funds may also use
comparative performance information computed by and available from certain
industry and general market research and publications, such as Lipper Analytical
Services, Inc.
B-92
<PAGE> 379
Statistical and performance information compiled and maintained by CDA
Technologies, Inc. and Interactive Data Corporation may also be used. CDA is a
performance evaluation service that maintains a statistical data base of
performance, as reported by a diverse universe of independently-managed mutual
funds. Interactive Data Corporation is a statistical access service that
maintains a data base of various industry indicators, such as historical and
current price/earning information and individual stock and fixed income price
and return information.
Current interest rate and yield information on government debt
obligations of various durations, as reported weekly by the Federal Reserve

debt obligations of various durations, as reported daily by the Bond Buyer, may
also be used. The BOND BUYER is published daily and is an industry-accepted
source for current municipal bond market information.
Comparative information on the Consumer Price Index may also be
included. This Index, as prepared by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, is the
most commonly used measure of inflation. It indicates the cost fluctuations of a
representative group of consumer goods. It does not represent a return on
investment.
THE EQUITY, BOND AND MUNICIPAL BOND FUNDS AND THE FUNDS OF FUNDS may quote
actual total return performance from time to time in advertising and other types
of literature compared to results reported by the Dow Jones Industrial Average.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average is an industry-accepted unmanaged
index of generally conservative securities used for measuring general market
performance. The performance reported will reflect the reinvestment of all
distributions on a quarterly basis and market price fluctuations. The index does
not take into account any brokerage commissions or other fees. Comparative
information on the Consumer Price Index may also be included.
The Equity Funds, the Bond Funds, the Municipal Bond Funds and the
Funds of Funds may also promote the yield and/or total return performance and
use comparative performance information computed by and available from certain
industry and general market research and publications, such as Lipper Analytical
Services, Inc.; they may also use indices such as the Standard & Poor's 400
Composite Stock Index, the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Index, the
Standard & Poor's 600 Composite Stock Index, the Russell 2000, or the Morgan
Stanley International European, Asian and Far East Gross Domestic Product Index

MISCELLANEOUS
- -------------
The Trust is not required to hold a meeting of Shareholders for the
purpose of electing Trustees except that (i) the Trust is required to hold a
Shareholders' meeting for the election of Trustees at such time as less than a
majority of the Trustees holding office have been elected by Shareholders and
(ii) if, as a result of a vacancy on the Board of Trustees, less than two-thirds
of the Trustees holding office have been elected by the Shareholders, that
vacancy may only be filled by a vote of the Shareholders. In addition, Trustees
may be removed from office by a written consent signed by the holders of Shares
representing two-thirds of the outstanding Shares of the Trust at a meeting duly
called for the purpose, which meeting shall be held upon the written request of
the holders of Shares representing not less than 20% of the outstanding Shares
of the Trust. Except as set forth above, the Trustees may continue to hold
office and may appoint successor Trustees.
As used in the Trust's Prospectuses and in this Statement of Additional
Information, "assets belonging to a Fund" means the consideration received by
the Trust upon the issuance or sale of Shares in that Fund, together with all
income, earnings, profits, and proceeds derived from the investment thereof,
including any proceeds from the sale, exchange, or liquidation of such
investments, and any funds or payments derived from any reinvestment of such
proceeds, and any general assets of the Trust not readily identified as
belonging to a particular Fund that are allocated to that Fund by the Trust's
Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees may allocate such general assets in any
manner it deems fair and equitable. It is anticipated that the factor that will
be used by the Board of Trustees in making allocations of general assets to
particular Funds will be the relative net asset values of the respective Funds
at the time of allocation. Assets belonging to a particular Fund are charged
with the direct liabilities and expenses in respect of that Fund, and with a
share of the general liabilities and expenses of the Trust not readily
identified as belonging to a particular Fund that are allocated to that Fund in
proportion to the relative net asset values of the respective Funds at
B-94
<PAGE> 381
the time of allocation. The timing of allocations of general assets and general
liabilities and expenses of the Trust to particular Funds will be determined by
the Board of Trustees of the Trust and will be in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. Determinations by the Board of Trustees of the
Trust as to the timing of the allocation of general liabilities and expenses and
as to the timing and allocable portion of any general assets with respect to a
particular Fund are conclusive. For information regarding the allocations of
Class Expenses to particular classes of a Fund, see the respective Prospectus of
the Fund under "MANAGEMENT-Expenses."

particular Fund, or a particular class of Shares of a Fund, means the
affirmative vote of the lesser of (a) more than 50% of the outstanding Shares of
the Trust, such Fund, or such class of Shares of such Fund, or (b) 67% or more
of the Shares of the Trust, such Fund, or such class of Shares of such Fund
present at a meeting at which the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding
Shares of the Trust, such Fund, or such class of Shares of such Fund are

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 1995
(Unaudited)
1. ORGANIZATION:
The One Group (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end investment company
established as a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust is registered to
offer four classes of shares: Fiduciary, Class A, Class B and Service. The
Trust currently consists of twenty-three funds. The accompanying financial
statements and financial highlights are those of the Prime Money Market
Fund, the U.S. Treasury Securities Money Market Fund, the Municipal Money
Market Fund, and the Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund (individually, a
"Fund"; collectively, the "Funds") only. The Prime Money Market Fund and the
U.S. Treasury Securities Money Market Fund are each offered in Fiduciary
Class, Class A and Service Class Shares. As of December 31, 1995, there were
no Service Class shareholders. The Municipal Money Market Fund and the Ohio
Municipal Money Market Fund are each offered in Fiduciary Class and Class A
Shares. Each Fund is a diversified mutual fund, except for the Ohio
Municipal Money Market Fund, which is non-diversified.
The Trust entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the
"Agreement") with The Paragon Portfolio ("Paragon"), a Massachusetts
business trust. The Agreement contemplates the transfer of all of the assets
and liabilities of each Paragon Fund in exchange for shares of the
corresponding One Group Fund. The Trustees of Paragon intend to seek
approval of the Agreement at a special shareholder meeting to be held March
25, 1996.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles consistently
followed by the Trust in preparation of its financial statements. The
policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
SECURITY VALUATION
Securities are valued utilizing the amortized cost method permitted in
accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. Under the amortized cost
method, discount or premium is amortized on a constant basis to the
maturity of the security. In addition, the Funds may not (a) purchase
any instrument with a remaining maturity greater than thirteen months
unless such instrument is subject to a demand feature, or (b)
maintain a dollar-weighted-average maturity which exceeds 90 days.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
The Funds may invest in repurchase agreements with institutions that the
Fund's investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. Each
repurchase agreement is recorded at cost. The Fund requires that the
securities purchased in a repurchase transaction be transferred to the
custodian in a manner sufficient to enable the Fund to obtain those
securities in the event of a counterparty default. The seller, under the
repurchase agreement, is required to maintain the value of the securities
held at not less than the repurchase price, including accrued interest.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INCOME
Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Net
realized gains or losses on sales of securities are determined on the
specific identification cost method. Interest income and expenses are
recognized on the accrual basis. Interest income, including any discount
or premium, is accrued as earned using the effective interest method.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED DECEMBER 31, 1995
(Unaudited)
SECURITIES LENDING
To general additional income, the Funds may lend up to 33% of
securities in which they are invested pursuant to agreements requiring
that the loan be continuously secured by cash, U.S. Government or U.S.
Government Agency securities, shares of an investment trust or mutual
fund, or any combination of cash and such securities as collateral equal
at all times to at least 100% of the market value plus accrued interest on
the securities lent. The Funds continue to earn interest on securities
lent while simultaneously seeking to earn interest on the investment of
collateral. Collateral is marked to market daily to provide a level of
collateral at least equal to the market value of securities lent. There
may be risks of delay in recovery of the securities or even loss of rights
in the collateral should the borrower of the securities fail financially.
However, loans will be made only to borrowers deemed by the Adviser to be
of good standing and credit worthy under guidelines established by the
Board of Trustees and when, in the judgment of the Adviser, the
consideration which can be earned currently from such securities loans
justifies the attendant risk. Loans are subject to termination by the
Funds or the borrower at any time, and are, therefore, not considered to
be illiquid investments. As of December 31, 1995, the following Funds had
securities with the following market values on loan (amounts in
thousands):
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
MARKET VALUE OF
LOANED SECURITIES
-----------------
<S> <C>
U.S. Treasury Securities Money Market Fund ......... $113,969
</TABLE>
EXPENSES
Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged directly to that
Fund, while the expenses which are attributable to more than one fund of
the Trust are allocated among the respective Funds. Each class of shares
bears its pro-rata portion of expenses attributable to its series, except
that each class separately bears expenses related specifically to that
class, such as distribution fees.
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS
Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid
monthly. Net income for this purpose consists of interest accrued and
discount earned (including both original issue discount and market
discount) less amortization of any market premium and accrued expenses.
Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually.
Dividends are declared separately for each class. No class has
preferential dividend rights; differences in per share dividend rates are
generally due to differences in separate class expenses.
Distributions from net investment income and from net capital gains are
determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from
generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily
due to differing treatments of expiring capital loss carryforwards and
deferrals of certain losses. Permanent book and tax basis differences,
which affect shareholder distributions, have been reclassified to
additional paid-in capital.
ORGANIZATION COSTS
Costs incurred by the Trust in connection with its organization,
including the fees and expenses of registering and qualifying its shares
for distribution have been deferred and are being amortized using the
straight-line method over a period of five years beginning with the
commencement of each Fund's operations. All such costs, which are
attributable to more than one fund, have been allocated among the funds of
the Trust pro-rata, based on the relative net assets of each fund. In the
event that any of the initial shares are redeemed

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED DECEMBER 31, 1995
(Unaudited)
during such period by any holder thereof, the related Fund will be
reimbursed by such holder for any unamortized organization costs in the
proportion as the number of initial shares being redeemed bears to the
number of initial shares outstanding at the time of redemption.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
Each Fund intends to continue 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 net investment income and net realized
capital gains sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all,
federal income taxes.
ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of income and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
3. SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST:
The Trust has an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest,
with no par value which may, without shareholder approval, be divided into
an unlimited number of series of such shares and any series may be
classified or reclassified into one or more classes. Currently, shares of
the Trust are registered to be offered through twenty-nine series and four
classes: Fiduciary, Class A, Class B and Service. Shareholders are entitled
to one vote for each full share held and will vote in the aggregate and not
by class or series, except as otherwise expressly required by law or when
the Board of Trustees has determined that the matter to be voted on affects
only the interest of shareholders of a particular class or series. The
following is a summary of transactions in Fund shares for the periods ended
December 31, 1995 and June 30, 1995:

4. INVESTMENT ADVISORY, ADMINISTRATION, AND DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENTS:
The Trust and Banc One Investment Advisors Corporation (the "Adviser") are
parties to an investment advisory agreement under which the Adviser is
entitled to receive an annual fee, computed daily and paid monthly, equal to
0.35% of the average daily net assets of the U.S. Treasury Securities Money
Market Fund, the Prime Money Market Fund, and the Municipal Money Market
Fund and 0.30% of the average daily net assets of the Ohio Municipal
Money Market Fund.
The Trust and The One Group Services Company (the "Administrator"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of The BISYS Group, Inc., are parties to an
administration agreement under which the Administrator provides services for
a fee that is computed daily and payable monthly at an annual rate of 0.20%
of each fund's average daily net assets on the first $1.5 billion of Trust
net assets (excluding the Treasury Only Money Market Fund and the Government
Money Market Fund - the "Institutional Money Market Funds"); 0.18% on the
next $0.5 billion of Trust net assets (excluding the Institutional Money
Market Funds); and 0.16% on Trust net assets (excluding the Institutional
Money Market Funds) over $2 billion. The Adviser also serves as
Sub-Administrator to each fund of the Trust, pursuant to an agreement
between the Administrator and the Adviser. Pursuant to this agreement, the
Adviser performs many of the Administrator's duties, for which the Adviser
receives a fee paid by the Administrator. Prior to November 30, 1995, The
Shareholder Services Group d/b/a 440 Financial served as administrator of
each Fund under essentially the same terms as the current administration
agreement.
The Trust and The One Group Services Company (the "Distributor") are parties
to a distribution agreement under which shares of the Funds are sold on a
continuous basis. Class A shares and Service Class shares are subject to a
distribution and shareholder services plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule
12b-1 under the 1940 Act. As provided in the Plan, the Trust will pay the
Distributor a fee of 0.35% of the average daily net assets of Class A shares
of each of the Funds and 0.75% of the average daily net assets of the
Service Class shares of each of the Funds. Currently, the Distributor has
voluntarily agreed to limit payments under the Plan to 0.25% of average
daily net assets of the Class A shares of each Fund and 0.55% of average
daily net assets of the Service Class shares of each Fund. Up to 0.25% of
the fees payable under the Plan may be used as compensation for shareholder
services by the Distributor and/or financial institutions and
intermediaries. Fees paid under the Plan may be applied by the Distributor
toward (i) compensation for its services in connection with distribution
assistance or provision of shareholder services; or (ii) payments to
financial institutions and intermediaries such as banks (including
affiliates of the Adviser), brokers, dealers and other institutions,
including the Distributor's affiliates and subsidiaries as compensation for
services or reimbursement of expenses incurred in connection with
distribution assistance or provision of shareholder services. Fiduciary
Class shares of each Fund are offered without distribution fees.
Certain officers of the Trust are affiliated with the Adviser or the
Administrator. Such officers receive no compensation from the Funds for
serving in their respective roles.

5. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK:
The Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund invests primarily in debt obligations
issued by the State of Ohio and its political subdivisions, agencies and
public authorities to obtain funds for various public purposes. The Fund is
more susceptible to economic and political factors adversely affecting
issuers of Ohio's specific municipal securities than are municipal bond
funds that are not concentrated in these issuers to the same extent.

THE ONE GROUP FAMILY OF MUTUAL FUNDS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 1995
(Unaudited)
1. ORGANIZATION:
The One Group (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end investment company
established as a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust is registered to
offer four classes of shares: Fiduciary, Class A, Class B and Service. The
Trust currently offers twenty-three funds. The accompanying financial
statements and financial highlights are those of the Asset Allocation Fund,
the Income Equity Fund, the Equity Index Fund, the Large Company Value Fund,
the Large Company Growth Fund, the Disciplined Value Fund, the Small Company
Growth Fund and the International Equity Index Fund (individually a "Fund";
collectively the "Funds") only. The Funds are each offered in Fiduciary
Class, Class A and Class B Shares. Class A Shares are subject to initial
sales charges, imposed at the time of purchase, in accordance with the
Funds' prospectuses. Certain redemptions of Class B Shares are subject to
contingent deferred sales charges in accordance with the Funds'
prospectuses. Each Fund is a diversified mutual fund. On September 1, 1995,
The One Group Blue Chip Equity Fund ceased operations, and all of its assets
and liabilities transferred to the Large Company Growth Fund. Effective
February 7, 1996, the Small Company Growth Fund was renamed the Growth
Opportunities Fund.
The Trust entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the
"Agreement") with The Paragon Portfolio ("Paragon"), a Massachusetts
business trust. The Agreement contemplates the transfer of all of the assets
and liabilities of each Paragon Fund in exchange for shares of the
corresponding One Group Fund. The Trustees of Paragon intend to seek
approval of the Agreement at a special shareholder meeting to be held
March 25, 1996.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by
the Trust in preparation of its financial statements. The policies are in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
SECURITY VALUATION
Listed securities are valued at the last sales price on the principal
exchange where such securities are traded. Unlisted securities or listed
securities for which last sales prices are not available are valued at
the mean of the latest bid and asked prices in the principal market where
such securities are traded. Short-term investments maturing in 60 days or
less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day
by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Options
traded on an exchange are valued using the last sale price or, in the
absence of a sale, the last offering price. Options traded
over-the-counter are valued using dealer-supplied valuations. Investments
for which there are no such quotations or valuations are carried at fair
value as determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Board of
Trustees.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
Investment valuations, other assets and liabilities initially expressed
in foreign currencies, are converted each business day into U.S. dollars
based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign
investments and income and expenses are converted into U.S. dollars based
upon exchange rates prevailing on the respective dates of such
transactions. That portion of unrealized appreciation or depreciation in
investments due to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates
is not separately disclosed.
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS
Forward foreign currency contracts are valued at the daily
exchange rate of the underlying currency. Purchases and sales of forward
foreign currency contracts having the same settlement date and broker are

THE ONE GROUP FAMILY OF MUTUAL FUNDS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED DECEMBER 31, 1995
(Unaudited)
presented net on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Gains or
losses on the purchase or sale of forward foreign currency contracts
having the same settlement date and broker are realized on the date of
offset; otherwise, gains or losses are realized on the settlement date.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
The Funds may invest in repurchase agreements with institutions that the
Fund's investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. Each repurchase
agreement is recorded at cost. The Fund requires that the securities
purchased in a repurchase transaction be transferred to the custodian in
a manner sufficient to enable the Fund to obtain those securities in the
evnt of a counterparty default. The seller, under the repurchase
agreement, is required to maintain the value of the securities held at not
less than the repurchase price, including accrued interest.
WRITTEN OPTIONS
The Funds may write covered call or put options for which premiums
received are recorded as liabilities and are subsequently adjusted to the
current value of the options written. Premiums received from writing
options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received
from writing options, which are either exercised or closed, are offset
against the proceeds received or amount paid on the transaction to
determine realized gains or losses.
FUTURES CONTRACTS
The Funds may enter into futures contracts for the delayed delivery of
securities at a fixed price at some future date or for the change in the
value of a specified financial index over a predetermined time period.
Cash or securities are deposited with brokers in order to maintain a
position. Subsequent payments made or received by the fund based on the
daily change in the market value of the position are recorded as
unrealized appreciation or depreciation until the contract is closed
out, at which time the appreciation or depreciation is realized.
INDEXED SECURITIES
The Funds may invest in indexed securities whose value is linked either
directly or inversely to changes in foreign currencies, interest rates,
commodities, indices or other referenced instruments. Indexed securities
may be more volatile than the referenced instrument itself, but any
loss is limited to the amount of the original investment.
SECURITIES LENDING
To generate additional income, the Funds may lend up to 33% of securities
in which they are invested pursuant to agreements requiring that the loan
be continuously secured by cash, U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency
securities, shares of an investment trust or mutual fund, or any
combination of cash and such securities as collateral equal at all times
to at least 100% of the market value plus accrued interest on the
securities lent. The Funds continue to earn interest on securities lent
while simultaneously seeking to earn the interest on the investment of
collateral. Collateral is marked to market daily to provide a level of
collateral at least equal to the market value of securities lent. There
may be risks of delay in recovery of the securities or even loss of rights
in the collateral should the borrower of the securities fail financially.
However, loans will be made only to borrowers deemed by the Adviser to be
of good standing and credit worthy under guidelines established by the
Board of Trustees and when, in the judgment of the Adviser, the
consideration which can

be earned currently from such securities loans justifies the attendant
risk. Loans are subject to termination by the Funds or the borrower at any
time, and are, therefore, not considered to be illiquid investments. As of
December 31, 1995, the following Funds had securities with the
following market values on loan:

</TABLE>
The loaned securities were fully collateralized by cash and U.S.
Government securities as of December 31, 1995.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INCOME
Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Net realized
gains or losses on sales of securities are determined on the specific
identification cost method. Interest income and expenses are recognized on
the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Interest income, including any discount or premium, is accrued as
earned using the effective interest method.
EXPENSES
Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged directly to that Fund,
while the expenses which are attributable to more than one fund of the
Trust are allocated among the respective Funds. Each class of shares bears
its pro-rata portion of expenses attributable to its series, except that
each class separately bears expenses related specifically to that class,
such as distribution fees.
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS
Dividends from net investment income are declared and paid monthly for all
Funds, except the International Equity Index Fund, which declares and
distributes net investment income annually. Net realized capital gains,
if any, are distributed at least annually. Dividends are declared
separately for each class. No class has preferential dividend rights;
differences in per share dividend rates are generally due to
differences in separate class expenses.
Distributions from net investment income and from net capital gains are
determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from
generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily
due to differing treatments for expiring capital loss carryforwards,
foreign currency transactions, and deferrals of certain losses. Permanent
book and tax basis differences, which affect shareholder distributions,
have been reclassified to additional paid-in capital.
ORGANIZATION COSTS
Costs incurred by the Trust in connection with its organization, including
the fees and expenses of registering and qualifying its shares for
distribution have been deferred and are being amortized using the
straight-line method over a period of five years beginning with the
commencement of each Fund's operations. All such

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED DECEMBER 31, 1995
(Unaudited)
costs, which are attributable to more than one fund, have been allocated
among the funds of the Trust pro-rata, based on the relative net assets
of each fund. In the event that any of the initial shares are redeemed
during such period by any holder thereof, the related fund will be
reimbursed by such holder for any unamortized organization costs in the
proportion as the number of initial shares being redeemed bears to the
number of initial shares outstanding at the time of redemption.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
Each Fund intends to continue 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 from net investment income and from net
realized capital gains sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially
all, federal income taxes. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have
been paid or provided for in accordance with the applicable country's tax
rules and rates.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial
statements and financial highlights in order to conform to the current
year presentation.
ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of income and expenses for the period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
3. REORGANIZATION
On May 22, 1995, the Board of Trustees approved a Plan of Reorganization
pursuant to which the Blue Chip Equity Fund would be merged with and into
the Large Company Growth Fund on September 1, 1995 (the "exchange date"). On
the exchange date, the Blue Chip Equity Fund transferred all of its assets
and liabilities to the Large Company Growth Fund in exchange for shares of
the Large Company Growth Fund. The reorganization, which qualified as a
tax-free exchange for federal income tax purposes, was approved by the
shareholders of the Blue Chip Equity Fund, at a shareholders' meeting on
August 28, 1995. The following is a summary of shares outstanding, net
assets, net asset value per share and unrealized appreciation
immediately before and after the reorganization:

4. SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST:
The Trust is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of
beneficial interest, with no par value which may, without shareholder
approval, be divided into an unlimited number of series of such shares and
any series may be classified or reclassified into one or more classes.
Currently, shares of the Trust are registered to be offered through
twenty-nine series and four classes: Fiduciary, Class A, Class B and
Service. The Service Shares commenced offering on January 17, 1994, when
they were designated as "Retirement" Shares. On April 4, 1995, the name of
the Retirement Shares was changed to "Service" Shares. During the year
ended June 30, 1995, Service Shares transferred to Class A Shares. As of
June 30, 1995 and through December 31, 1995, there were no shareholders in
the Service Class. Shareholders are entitled to one vote for each full
share held and will vote in the aggregate and not by class or series,
except as otherwise expressly required by law or when the Board of
Trustees has determined that the matter to be voted on affects only the
interest of shareholders of a particular class or series. The following is
a summary of transactions in Fund shares for the periods ended December
31, 1995 and June 30, 1995:

5. INVESTMENT ADVISORY, ADMINISTRATIVE, AND DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENTS:
The Trust and Banc One Investment Advisors Corporation (the "Adviser") are
parties to an investment advisory agreement under which the Adviser is
entitled to a fee, computed daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of
0.74% of the average net assets of the Income Equity Fund, the Disciplined
Value Fund, the Small Company Growth Fund, the Large Company Value Fund,
and the Large Company Growth Fund; 0.65% of the average daily net assets
of the Asset Allocation Fund; 0.55% of the average daily net assets of the
International Equity Index Fund; and 0.30% of the average daily net
assets of the Equity Index Fund.
The Trust and The One Group Services Company (the "Administrator"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of The BISYS Group, Inc., are parties to an
administration agreement under which the Administrator provides services
for a fee that is computed daily and payable monthly at an annual rate of
0.20% of each fund's average daily net assets on the first $1.5 billion of
Trust net assets (excluding the Treasury Only Money Market Fund and the
Government Money Market Fund -- the "Institutional Money Market Funds");
0.18% on the next $0.5 billion of Trust net assets (excluding the
Institutional Money Market Funds); and 0.16% on Trust net assets
(excluding the Institutional Money Market Funds) over $2 billion. The
Adviser also serves as Sub-Administrator to each Fund of the Trust,
pursuant to an agreement between the Administrator and the Adviser.
Pursuant to this agreement, the Adviser performs many of the
Administrator's duties, for which the Adviser receives a fee paid by the
Administrator. Prior to November 30, 1995, The Shareholder Services Group
d/b/a 440 Financial served as administrator of each Fund under essentially
the same terms as the current administration agreement.
The Trust and The One Group Services Company (the "Distributor") are
parties to a distribution agreement under which shares of the Funds are
sold on a continuous basis. Class A Shares and Class B Shares are subject
to a distribution and shareholder services plans (the "Plans") pursuant to
Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. As provided in the Plans, the Trust will
pay the Distributor a fee of 0.35% of the average daily net assets of
Class A Shares of each of the Funds and 1.00% of the average daily net
assets of the Class B Shares of each of the Funds. Currently, the
Distributor has voluntarily agreed to limit payments under the Plans to
0.25% of average daily net assets of the Class A Shares of each Fund. Up
to 0.25% of the fees payable under the Plans may be used as compensation
for shareholder services by the Distributor and/or financial institutions
and intermediaries. Fees paid under the Plan may be applied by the
Distributor toward (i) compensation for its services in connection with
distribution assistance or provision of shareholder services; or (ii)
payments to financial institutions and intermediaries such as banks,
(including affiliates of the Adviser), brokers, dealers and other
institutions, including the Distributor's affiliates and subsidiaries as
compensation for services or reimbursement of expenses incurred in
connection with distribution assistance or provision of shareholder
services. Fiduciary Class Shares of each Fund are offered without
distribution fees.
Certain officers of the Trust are affiliated with the Adviser or the
Administrator. Such officers receive no compensation from the Funds for
serving in their respective roles.

7. Financial Instruments: Investing in financial instruments such as
written options, futures and sales of forward foreign currency
contracts involves risk in excess of the amounts reflected in the
Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The face or contract amounts
reflect the extent of the involvement the Funds have in the
particular class of instrument. Risks associated with these
instruments include an imperfect correlation between the movements
in the price of the instruments and the price of the underlying
securities and interest rates, an illiquid secondary market for the
instruments or inability of counterparties to perform under the
terms of the contract, and changes in the value of currency relative
to the U.S. dollar. The Funds enter into these contracts primarily
as a means to hedge against adverse fluctuation in securities.

9. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK:
The International Equity Index has a relatively large concentration
of securities invested in companies domiciled in Japan. The Fund
may be more susceptible to the political, social and economic
events adversely affecting the Japanese companies than funds not so

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 1995
(Unaudited)
1. ORGANIZATION:
The One Group (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end investment company
established as a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust is registered to
offer four classes of shares: Fiduciary, Class A, Class B and Service. The
Trust currently offers twenty-three funds. The accompanying financial
statements and financial highlights are those of the Income Bond Fund, the
Government Bond Fund, the Intermediate Bond Fund, the Limited Volatility Bond
Fund, the Government ARM Fund, the Tax-Free Bond Fund, the Ohio Municipal
Bond Fund, the Kentucky Municipal Bond Fund, and the Intermediate Tax-Free
Bond Fund, (individually, a "Fund" collectively, the "Funds") only. The Funds
are each offered in Fiduciary Class, Class A and Class B Shares. Class A
Shares are subject to initial sales charges imposed at the time of purchase,
in accordance with the Funds' prospectuses. Certain redemptions of Class B
Shares are subject to contingent deferred sales charges, in accordance with
the Funds' prospectuses. Each Fund is a diversified mutual fund, except for
the Ohio Municipal Bond Fund and the Kentucky Municipal Bond Fund, which are
non-diversified. Effective February 7, 1996, the Tax-Free Bond Fund was
renamed the Municipal Income Fund.
The Trust entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the
"Agreement") with The Paragon Portfolio ("Paragon"), a Massachusetts business
trust. The Agreement contemplates the transfer of all of the assets and
liabilities of each Paragon Fund in exchange for shares of the corresponding
One Group Fund. The Trustees of Paragon intend to seek approval of the
Agreement at a special shareholder meeting to be held March 25, 1996.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
SECURITY VALUATION
Corporate debt securities and debt securities of U.S. issuers (other than
short-term investments maturing in 60 days or less), including municipal
securities, are valued on the basis of valuations provided by dealers or by
an independent pricing service approved by the Board of Trustees.
Short-term investments maturing in 60 days or less are valued at amortized
cost, which approximates market value. Futures contracts are valued at the
settlement price established each day by the board of trade or an exchange
on which they are traded. Options traded on an exchange are valued using
the last sale price or, in the absence of a sale, the last offering price.
Options traded over-the-counter are valued using dealer-supplied
valuations. Investments for which there are no such quotations or
valuations are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the
investment adviser under the direction of the Board of Trustees.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
Each Fund may invest in repurchase agreements with institutions that the
Fund's investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. Each repurchase
agreement is recorded at cost. The Fund requires that the securities
purchased in a repurchase transaction be transferred to the custodian in a
manner sufficient to enable the Fund to obtain those securities in the
event of a counterparty default. The seller, under the repurchase
agreement, is required to maintain the value of the securities held at not
less than the repurchase price, including accrued interest.
WRITTEN OPTIONS
The Funds may write covered call or put options for which premiums received
are recorded as liabilities and are subsequently adjusted to the current
value of the options written. Premiums received from writing options

B-222
<PAGE> 528
THE ONE GROUP FAMILY OF MUTUAL FUNDS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED DECEMBER 31, 1995
(Unaudited)
which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing
options, which are either exercised or closed, are offset against the
proceeds received or amount paid on the transaction to determine realized
gains or losses.
FUTURES CONTRACTS
The Funds may enter into futures contracts for the delayed delivery of
securities at a fixed price at some future date or for the change in the
value of a specified financial index over a predetermined time period. Cash
or securities are deposited with brokers in order to maintain a position.
Subsequent payments made or received by the fund based on the daily change
in the market value of the position are recorded as unrealized appreciation
or depreciation until the contract is closed out, at which time the
appreciation or depreciation is realized.
INDEXED SECURITIES
The Funds may invest in indexed securities whose value is linked either
directly or inversely to changes in foreign currencies, interest rates,
commodities, indices or other reference instruments. Indexed securities may
be more volatile than the referenced instrument itself, but any loss is
limited to the amount of the original investment.
MORTGAGE ROLLS
The Funds may enter into mortgage "dollar rolls" in which the Fund sells
mortgage-backed securities for delivery in the current month and
simultaneously contracts to repurchase substantially similar securities on
a specified future date. During the roll period, the Fund forgoes principal
and interest paid on the mortgage-backed securities. The Fund is
compensated by fee income, for the difference between the current sales
price and the lower forward price for the future purchase.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INCOME
Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Net realized
gains or losses on sales of securities are determined on the specific
identification cost method. Interest income and expenses are recognized on
the accrual basis. Interest income, including any discount or premium, is
accrued as earned using the effective interest method.
SECURITIES LENDING
To generate additional income, the Funds may lend up to 33% of securities
in which they are invested pursuant to agreements requiring that the loan
be continuously secured by cash, U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency
securities, shares of an investment trust or mutual fund, or any
combination of cash and such securities as collateral equal at all times to
at least 100% of the market value plus accrued interest on the securities
lent. The Funds continue to earn interest on securities lent while
simultaneously seeking to earn interest on the investment of collateral.
Collateral is marked to market daily to provide a level of collateral at
least equal to the market value of securities lent. There may be risks of
delay in recovery of the securiteies or even loss of rights in the
collateral should the borrower of the securities fail financially. However,
loans will be made only to borrowers deemed by the Adviser to be of good
standing and credit worthy under guidelines established by the Board of
Trustees and when, in the judgment of the Adviser, the consideration which
can

(Unaudited)
be earned currently from such securities loans justifies the attendant
risk. Loans are subject to termination by the Funds or the borrower at any
time, and are, therefore, not considered to be illiquid investments. As of
December 31, 1995, the following Funds had securities with the following
market values on loan:

Intermediate Bond Fund.......................... 142,179,946
Government Bond Fund............................ 211,376,529
Income Bond Fund................................ 147,627,420
</TABLE>
The loaned securities were fully collateralized by cash and U.S.
Government Securities as of December 31, 1995.
EXPENSES
Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged directly to that Fund,
while the expenses which are attributable to more than one fund of the
Trust are allocated among the respective Funds. Each class of shares bears
its pro-rata portion of expenses attributable to its series, except that
each class separately bears expenses, such as distribution fees related
specifically to that class.
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS
Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly
for the Funds. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least
annually. Dividends are declared separately for each class. No class has
preferential dividend rights; differences in per share dividend rates are
generally due to differences in separate class expenses.
Distributions from net investment income and from net capital gains are
determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from
generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are due
primarily to differing treatments for mortgage-backed securities, expiring
capital loss carryforwards, and deferrals of certain losses. Permanent book
and tax basis differences, which affect shareholder distributions, have
been reclassified to additional paid-in capital.
ORGANIZATION COSTS
Costs incurred by the Trust in connection with its organization, including
the fees and expenses of registering and qualifying its shares for
distribution have been deferred and are being amortized using the
straight-line method over a period of five years beginning with the
commencement of each Fund's operations. All such costs, which are
attributable to more than one fund, have been allocated among the funds of
the Trust pro-rata, based on the relative net assets of each fund. In the
event that any of the initial shares are redeemed during such period by any
holder thereof, the related fund will be reimbursed by such holder for any
unamortized organization costs in the proportion as the number of initial
shares being redeemed bears to the number of initial shares outstanding at
the time of redemption.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The Trust treats each Fund as a separate entity for Federal income tax
purposes. Each Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated
investment company by complying with the provisions available to certain

(Unaudited)
investment companies as defined in applicable sections of the Internal
Revenue Code, and to make distributions of net investment income and net
realized capital gains sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially
all, federal income taxes.
ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of income and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
3. SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST:
The Trust is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of
beneficial interest, with no par value which may, without shareholder
approval, be divided into an unlimited number of series of such shares and
any series may be classified or reclassified into one or more classes.
Currently, shares of the Trust are registered to be offered through
twenty-nine series and four classes: Fiduciary, Class A, Class B and
Service. The Service Shares commenced offering on January 17, 1994 when
they were designated as "Retirement" Shares. On April 4, 1995, the name of
the Retirement Shares was changed to "Service" Shares. During the year
ended June 30, 1995, Service Shares transferred to Class A Shares. As of
June 30, 1995 and through December 31, 1995, there were no shareholders in
the Service Class. Shareholders are entitled to one vote for each full
share held and will vote in the aggregate and not by class or series,
except as otherwise expressly required by law or when the Board of Trustees
has determined that the matter to be voted on affects only the interest of
shareholders of a particular class or series. The following is a summary of
transactions in Fund shares for the periods ended December 31, 1995 and
June 30, 1995:

4. INVESTMENT ADVISORY, ADMINISTRATIVE, AND DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENTS:
The Trust and Banc One Investment Advisors Corporation (the "Adviser") are
parties to an investment advisory agreement under which the Adviser is
entitled to receive an annual fee, computed daily and paid monthly, equal
to the following percentages of the Funds' average daily net assets: 0.60%
of the Income Bond, the Intermediate Bond, Limited Volatility Bond, Ohio
Municipal Bond, Kentucky Municipal Bond, and Intermediate Tax-Free Bond
Funds; 0.55% of the Government ARM Fund, and 0.45% of the Government Bond
and Tax-Free Bond Funds.
The Trust and The One Group Services Company (the "Administrator"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of The BISYS Group, Inc., are parties to an
administration agreement under which the Administrator provides services
for a fee that is computed daily and payable monthly at an annual rate of
0.20% of each fund's average daily net assets on the first $1.5 billion of
Trust net assets (excluding the Treasury Only Money Market Fund and the
Government Money Market Fund - the "Institutional Money Market Funds");
0.18% on the next $0.5 billion of Trust net assets (excluding the
Institutional Money Market Funds); and 0.16% on Trust net assets (excluding
the Institutional Money Market Funds) over $2 billion. The Adviser also
serves as Sub-Administrator to each fund of the Trust, pursuant to an
agreement between the Administrator and the Adviser. Pursuant to this
agreement, the Adviser performs many of the Administrator's duties, for
which the Adviser receives a fee paid by the Administrator. Prior to
November 30, 1995, The Shareholder Services Group d/b/a 440 Financial
served as administrator of each Fund under essentially the same terms as
the current administration agreement.
The Trust and The One Group Services Company (the "Distributor") are
parties to a distribution agreement under which shares of the Funds are
sold on a continuous basis. Class A Shares and Class B Shares are subject
to a distribution and shareholder services plans (the "Plans") pursuant to
Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. As provided in the Plans, the Trust will pay
the Distributor a fee of 0.35% of the average daily net assets of Class A
Shares of each of the Funds and 1.00% of the average daily net assets of
the Class B Shares of each of the Funds. Currently, the Distributor has
voluntarily agreed to limit payments under the Plans to 0.25% of average
daily net assets of the Class A Shares of each Fund. Up to 0.25% of the
fees payable under the Plans may be used as compensation for shareholder
services by the Distributor and/or financial institutions and
intermediaries. Fees paid under the Plan may be applied by the Distributor
toward (i) compensation for its services in connection with distribution
assistance or provision of shareholder services; or (ii) payments to
financial institutions and intermediaries such as banks (including
affiliates of the Adviser), brokers, dealers and other institutions,
including the Distributor's affiliates and subsidiaries as compensation for
services or reimbursement of expenses incurred in connection with
distribution assistance or provision of shareholder services. Fiduciary
Class Shares of each Fund are offered without distribution fees.
Certain officers of the Trust are affiliated with the Adviser or the
Administator. Such officers receive no compensation from the Funds for
serving in their respective roles.

6. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Investing in financial instruments such as written options, futures,
structured notes and indexed securities involves risk in excess of the
amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The face or
contract amounts reflect the extent of the involvement the funds have in
the particular class of instrument. Risks associated with these instruments
include an imperfect correlation between the movements in the price of the
instruments and the price of the underlying securities and interest rates,
an illiquid secondary market for the instruments or inability of
counterparties to perform under the terms of the contract. The Funds enter
into these contracts primarily as a means to hedge against adverse
fluctuations in securities.

7. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK:
The Ohio and Kentucky Municipal Bond Funds invest in primarily debt
obligations issued by the respective States and their political
subdivisions, agencies and public authorities to obtain funds for various
public purposes. The Funds are more susceptible to economic and political
factors adversely affecting issuers of the state's specific municipal
securities than are municipal bond funds that are not concentrated in
these issuers to the same extent.

THE ONE GROUP FAMILY OF MUTUAL FUNDS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 1995
(Unaudited)
1. ORGANIZATION:
The One Group (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end investment company
established as a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust is registered to
offer four classes of shares: Fiduciary, Class A, Class B, and Service. The
Trust currently consists of twenty-three funds. The accompanying financial
statements and financial highlights are those of the Treasury Only Money
Market Fund and the Government Money Market Fund (individually, a "Fund"
collectively, the "Funds") only. The Funds are diversified mutual funds and
are not offered in multiple classes.
The Trust entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the
"Agreement") with The Paragon Portfolio ("Paragon"), a Massachusetts
business trust. The Agreement contemplates the transfer of all of the
assets and liabilities of each Paragon Fund in exchange for shares of the
corresponding One Group Fund. The Trustees of Paragon intend to seek
approval of the Agreement at a special shareholder meeting to be held March
25, 1996.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by
the Trust in preparation of its financial statements. The policies are in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
SECURITY VALUATION
Securities are valued utilizing the amortized cost method permitted in
accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. Under the amortized cost
method, discount or premium is amortized on a constant basis to the
maturity of the security. In addition, the Funds may not (a) purchase any
instrument with a remaining maturity greater than thirteen months unless
such instrument is subject to a demand feature, or (b) maintain a
dollar-weighted-average maturity which exceeds 90 days.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
The Funds may invest in repurchase agreements with institutions that the
Fund's investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. Each repurchase
agreement is recorded at cost. The Fund requires that the securities
purchased in a repurchase transaction be transferred to the custodian in a
manner sufficient to enable the Fund to obtain those securities in the
event of a counterparty default. The seller, under the repurchase
agreement, is required to maintain the value of the securities held at not
less than the repurchase price, including accrued interest.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INCOME
Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Net realized
gains or losses on sales of securities are determined on the specific
identification cost method. Interest income and expenses are recognized on
the accrual basis. Interest income, including any discount or premium, is
accrued as earned using the effective interest method.
SECURITIES LENDING
To generate additional income, the Funds may lend up to 33% of securities
in which they are invested pursuant to agreements requiring that the loan
be continuously secured by cash, U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency
securities, shares of an investment trust or mutual fund, or any
combination of cash and such securities as collateral equal at all times to
at least 100% of the market value plus accrued interest on the securities
lent. The Funds continue to earn interest on securities lent while
simultaneously seeking to earn interest on the investment of collateral.
Collateral is marked to market daily to provide a level of collateral at

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STAEMENTS, CONTINUED DECEMBER 31, 1995
(Unaudited)
least equal to the market value of securities lent. There may be risks of
delay in recovery of the securities or even loss of rights in the
collateral should the borrower of the securities fail financially. However,
loans will be made only to borrowers deemed by the Adviser to be of good
standing and credit worthy under guidelines established by the Board of
Trustees and when, in the judgment of the Adviser, the consideration which
can be earned currently from such securities loans justifies the attendant
risk. Loans are subject to termination by the Funds or the borrower at any
time, and are, therefore, not considered to be illiquid investments. As of
December 31, 1995, the Funds had no securities on loan.
EXPENSES
Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged directly to that Fund,
while the expenses which are attributable to more than one fund of the
Trust are allocated among the respective Funds.
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS
Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly.
Net income for this purpose consists of interest accrued and discount
earned (including both original issue discount and market discount) less
amortization of any market premium and accrued expenses. Net realized
capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually.
Distributions from net investment income and from net capital gains are
determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from
generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily
due to differing treatments for expiring capital loss carryforwards and
deferrals of certain losses. Permanent book and tax basis differences,
which affect shareholder distributions, have been reclassified to
additional paid-in capital.
ORGANIZATION COSTS
Costs incurred by the Trust in connection with its organization, including
the fees and expenses of registering and qualifying its shares for
distribution have been deferred and are being amortized using the
straight-line method over a period of five years beginning with the
commencement of each Fund's operations. All such costs, which are
attributable to more than one fund, have been allocated among the Funds of
the Trust pro-rata, based on the relative net assets of each Fund. In the
event that any of the initial shares are redeemed during such period by any
holder thereof, the related Fund will be reimbursed by such holder for any
unamortized organization costs in the proportion as the number of initial
shares being redeemed bears to the number of initial shares outstanding at
the time of redemption.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
Each Fund intends to continue 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 from net investment income and from net realized capital
gains sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal
income taxes.
ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of income and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.

3. SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST:
The Trust has an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, with no
par value which may, without shareholder approval, be divided into an
unlimited number of series of such shares and any series may be classified
or reclassified into one or more classes. Currently, shares of the Trust
are registered to be offered through twenty-nine series and four classes:
Fiduciary, Class A, Class B and Service. Shareholders are entitled to one
vote for each full share held and will vote in the aggregate and not by
class or series, except as otherwise expressly required by law or when the
Board of Trustees has determined that the matter to be voted on affects
only the interest of shareholders of a particular class or series.
4. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND ADMINISTRATION AGREEMENTS:
The Trust and Banc One Investment Advisors Corporation (the "Adviser") are
parties to an investment advisory agreement under which the Adviser is
entitled to receive an annual fee, computed daily and paid monthly, equal
to 0.08% of the average daily net assets of each Fund.
The Trust and One Group Services Company (the "Administrator"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of The BISYS Group, Inc., are parties to an
administration agreement under which the Administrator provides services
for a fee that is computed daily and payable monthly at an annual rate of
0.05% of each Fund's average daily net assets. The Adviser also serves as
Sub-Administrator to each fund of the Trust, pursuant to an agreement
between the Administrator and the Adviser. Pursuant to this agreement, the
Adviser performs many of the Administrator's duties, for which the Adviser
receives a fee paid by the Administrator. Prior to November 30, 1995, The
Shareholder Services Group d/b/a 440 Financial served as administrator of
each Fund under essentially the same terms as the current administration
agreement.
The One Group Services Company (the "Distributor") and the Trust are
parties to a distribution agreement under which shares of the Funds are
sold on a continuous basis. No compensation is paid to the Distributor for
distribution services for the Funds.
Certain officers of the Trust are affiliated with the Adviser or the
Administrator. Such officers receive no compensation from the Funds for

THE ONE GROUP FAMILY OF MUTUAL FUNDS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1995
1. ORGANIZATION:
The One Group (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as a diversified, open-end investment
company established as a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust is
registered to offer five classes of shares: Fiduciary, Class A, Class B,
Institutional and Service. The Trust currently offers twenty-four funds. The
accompanying financial statements and financial highlights are those of the
U.S. Treasury Securities Money Market Fund, the Prime Money Market Fund, the
Municipal Money Market Fund, and the Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund
(individually, a "Fund"; collectively, the "Funds") only.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles consistently followed by the
Trust in preparation of its financial statements.
SECURITY VALUATION
Securities are valued utilizing the amortized cost method permitted in
accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. Under the amortized cost
method, discount or premium is amortized on a constant basis to the maturity
of the security. In addition, the Funds may not (a) purchase any instrument
with a remaining maturity greater than thirteen months unless such
instrument is subject to a demand feature, or (b) maintain a dollar-weighted
average maturity which exceeds 90 days.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
The Funds may invest in repurchase agreements with institutions that the
Fund's investment advisor has determined are creditworthy. Each repurchase
agreement is recorded at cost. The Fund requires that the securities
purchased in a repurchase transaction be transferred to the custodian in a
manner sufficient to enable the Fund to obtain those securities in the event
of a counterparty default. The seller, under the repurchase agreement, is
required to maintain the value of the securities held at not less than the
repurchase price, including accrued interest.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INCOME
Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Net realized
gains or losses on sales of securities are determined on the specific
identification cost method. Interest income and expenses are recognized on
the accrual basis. Interest income, including any discount or premium, is
accrued as earned using the effective interest method.
EXPENSES
Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged directly to that Fund,
while the expenses which are attributable to more than one fund of the Trust
are allocated among the respective Funds. Each class of shares bears its
pro-rata portion of expenses attributable to its series, except that each
class separately bears expenses related specifically to that class, such as
distribution fees.
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS
Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly.
Net income for this purpose consists of interest accrued and discount earned
(including both original issue discount and market discount) less
amortization of any market premium and accrued expenses. Net realized
capital gains, if any, are
Continued

THE ONE GROUP FAMILY OF MUTUAL FUNDS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED JUNE 30, 1995
distributed at least annually. Dividends are declared separately for each
class. No class has preferential dividend rights; differences in per share
dividend rates are generally due to differences in separate class expenses.
Net investment income and net capital gain distributions are determined in
accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally
accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to
differing treatments of expiring capital loss carryforwards and deferrals of
certain losses.
ORGANIZATION COSTS
Costs incurred by the Trust in connection with its organization, including
the fees and expenses of registering and qualifying its shares for
distribution have been deferred and are being amortized using the
straight-line method over a period of five years beginning with the
commencement of each Fund's operations. All such costs have been allocated
among the funds of the Trust pro-rata, based on the relative net assets of
each fund. In the event that any of the initial shares are redeemed during
such period by any holder thereof, the related Fund will be reimbursed by
such holder for any unamortized organization costs in the proportion as the
number of initial shares being redeemed bears to the number of initial
shares outstanding at the time of redemption.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
Each Fund intends to continue 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 net investment income and net realized capital gains
sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income
taxes.
3. SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST:
The Trust has an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, with no
par value which may, without shareholder approval, be divided into an
unlimited number of series of such shares and any series may be classified
or reclassified into one or more classes. Currently, shares of the Trust are
registered to be offered through thirty series and five classes: Fiduciary,
Class A, Class B, Institutional and Service. The Service Shares commenced
offering on January 17, 1994 when they were designated as "Retirement"
Shares. On April 4, 1995, the name of the Retirement Shares was changed to
"Service" Shares. During the year ended June 30, 1995, Service Shares
transferred to Class A Shares, and as of June 30, 1995, there were no
shareholders in the Service Class. Shareholders are entitled to one vote for
each full share held and will vote in the aggregate and not by class or
series, except as otherwise expressly required by law or when the Board of
Trustees has determined that the matter to be voted on affects only the
interest of shareholders of a particular class or series. The following is a
summary of transactions in Fund shares for the fiscal years ending June 30,
1995 and 1994:

d/b/a 440 Financial became the Administrator to the Trust. Also effective
April 1, 1995, the Advisor became the Sub-Administrator pursuant to an
agreement between the Administrator and the Advisor. The Advisor assumed
many of the administrative duties, for which it receives a fee paid by the
Administrator.
The Trust has adopted a distribution and shareholder services plan (the
"Plan") on behalf of the Class A, Class B and Service Class Shares pursuant
to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. 440 Financial Distributors, Inc. (the
"Distributor") acts as the distributor of the Trust's shares. The
Distributor receives a fee for its services of 0.35%, 1.00%, and 0.75% of
the average daily net assets of the Class A, Class B, and Service Class
Shares, respectively. Effective May 1, 1995, the Distributor voluntarily
agreed to limit its fees to an annual rate of 0.55% of the average daily net
assets of the Service Class Shares for distribution and shareholder
assistance for the U.S. Treasury Securities and Prime Money Market Funds.
These fees are used by the Distributor to pay banks, including affiliates of
the the Advisor, other institutions and broker/dealers, and for expenses the
Distributor incurs for providing distribution or shareholder assistance. The
Distributor has voluntarily agreed to limit its fees for the Class A Shares
to an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets.
Certain officers of the Trust are also officers of the Administrator and/or
Distributor. Such officers receive no compensation from the Funds for
serving in their respective roles.
The Advisor, Administrator, and Distributor voluntarily agreed to waive a
portion of their fees and to reimburse the Funds for certain expenses so
that total expenses of each Fund would not exceed certain annual expense
limitations. For the year ended June 30, 1995, fees in the following amounts
were waived or reimbursed to the Funds:

The Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund invests primarily in debt obligations
issued by the State of Ohio and its political subdivisions, agencies and
public authorities to obtain funds for various public purposes. The Fund is
more susceptible to economic and political factors adversely affecting
issuers of Ohio's specific municipal securities than are municipal bond
funds that are not concentrated in these issuers to the same extent.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE ONE GROUP FAMILY OF MUTUAL FUNDS JUNE 30, 1995
To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of
The One Group:
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of the
U.S. Treasury Securities Money Market Fund, the Prime Money Market Fund, the
Municipal Money Market Fund and the Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund (four
series of The One Group), including the schedules of portfolio investments, as
of June 30, 1995, and the related statements of operations for the year then
ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the
period then ended, and financial highlights for each of the periods indicated
herein. These financial statements and financial highlights are the
responsibility of The One Group's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of June
30, 1995 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
U.S. Treasury Securities Money Market Fund, the Prime Money Market Fund, the
Municipal Money Market Fund and the Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund of The One
Group as of June 30, 1995, the results of their operations for the year then
ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period
then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated
herein, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

THE ONE GROUP FAMILY OF MUTUAL FUNDS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1995
1. ORGANIZATION:
The One Group (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as a diversified, open-end investment
company established as a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust is
registered to offer five classes of shares: Fiduciary, Class A, Class B,
Institutional and Service. The Trust currently offers twenty-four funds.
The accompanying financial statements and financial highlights are those of
the Asset Allocation Fund, the Income Equity Fund, the Equity Index Fund,
the Large Company Value Fund, the Blue Chip Equity Fund, the Large Company
Growth Fund, the Disciplined Value Fund, the Small Company Growth Fund and
the International Equity Index Fund (individually, a "Fund"; collectively,
the "Funds") only.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles consistently followed by the
Trust in preparation of its financial statements.
SECURITY VALUATION
Listed securities are valued at the last sales price on the principal
exchange where such securities are traded. Unlisted securities or listed
securities for which last sales prices are not available are valued at
the mean of the latest bid and asked priced in the principal market where
such securities are traded. Short-term investments maturing in 60 days
or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
Investments for which there are no such quotations or valuations are
carried at fair value as determined in good faith by or at the direction
of the Board of Trustees. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement
price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which
they are traded. Options traded on an exchange are valued using the last
sale price or, in the absence of a sale, the last offering price. Options
traded over-the-counter are valued using dealer-supplied valuations.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
Investment valuations, other assets and liabilities initially expressed
in foreign currencies are converted each business day into U.S. dollars
based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign
investments and income and expenses are converted into U.S. dollars based
upon exchange rates prevailing on the respective dates of such
transactions. That portion of unrealized gains or losses in investments
due to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately
disclosed.
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS
Forward foreign currency contracts are valued by the daily exchange rate
of the underlying currency. Purchases and sales of forward foreign
currency contracts having the same settlement date and broker are
presented net on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Gains or
losses on the purchase or sale of forward foreign currency contracts
having the same settlement date and broker are recognized on the date of
offset; otherwise gains or losses are recognized on settlement date.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
The Funds may invest in repurchase agreements with institutions that the
Fund's investment advisor has determined are creditworthy. Each
repurchase agreement is recorded at cost. The Fund requires that the
securities purchased in a repurchase transaction be transferred to the
custodian in a manner sufficient to enable the Fund to obtain those
securities in the event of a counterparty default. The seller, under the
repurchase agreement, is required to maintain the value of the securities
held at not less than the repurchase price, including accrued interest.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED JUNE 30, 1995
WRITTEN OPTIONS
The Funds may write covered call or put options for which premiums
received are recorded as liabilities and are subsequently adjusted to the
current value of the options written. Premiums received from writing
options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received
from writing options which are exercised or are closed are offset against
the proceeds received or amount paid on the transaction to determine
realized gain or loss.
FUTURES CONTRACTS
The Funds may enter into futures contracts for the delayed delivery of
securities at a fixed price at some future date or the change in the
value of a specified financial index over a predetermined time period.
Cash or securities are deposited with brokers in order to maintain a
position. Subsequent payments made or received by the fund based on the
daily change in the market value of the position are recorded as
unrealized gain or loss until the contract is closed out, at which time
the gain or loss is realized.
INDEXED SECURITIES
The Funds may invest in indexed securities whose value is linked either
directly or inversely to changes in foreign currencies, interest rates,
commodities, indices or other reference instruments. Indexed securities
may be more volatile than the referenced instrument itself, but any loss
is limited to the amount of the original investment.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INCOME
Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Net
realized gains or losses on sales of securities are determined on the
specific identification cost method. Interest income and expenses are
recognized on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Interest income, including any discount or premium, is
accrued as earned using the effective interest method.
EXPENSES
Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged directly to that
Fund, while the expenses which are attributable to more than one fund of
the Trust are allocated among the respective Funds. Each class of shares
bears its pro-rata portion of expenses attributable to its series, except
that each class separately bears expenses related specifically to that
class, such as distribution fees.
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS
Dividends from net investment income are declared and paid monthly for
all Funds, except the International Equity Index Fund, which declares and
distributes net investment income annually. Net realized capital gains,
if any, are distributed at least annually. Dividends are declared
separately for each class. No class has preferential dividend rights;
differences in per share dividend rates are generally due to differences
in separate class expenses.
Net investment income and net capital gain distributions are determined
in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally
accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to
differing treatments for expiring capital loss carryforwards, foreign
currency transactions, and deferrals of certain losses.

ORGANIZATION COSTS
Costs incurred by the Trust in connection with its organization,
including the fees and expenses of registering and qualifying its shares
for distribution have been deferred and are being amortized using the
straight-line method over a period of five years beginning with the
commencement of each Fund's operations. All such costs have been
allocated among the funds of the Trust pro-rata, based on the relative
net assets of each fund. In the event that any of the initial shares are
redeemed during such period by any holder thereof, the related fund will
be reimbursed by such holder for any unamortized organization costs in
the proportion as the number of initial shares being redeemed bears to
the number of initial shares outstanding at the time of redemption.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
Each Fund intends to continue 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 net investment income and net realized
capital gains sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all,
federal income taxes. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been
paid or provided for in accordance with the applicable country's tax
rules and rates.
RECLASSIFICATIONS:
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1994 financial statements
and financial highlights in order to conform to the 1995 presentation.
3. SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST:
The Trust is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of
beneficial interest, with no par value which may, without shareholder
approval, be divided into an unlimited number of series of such shares and
any series may be classified or reclassified into one or more classes.
Currently, shares of the Trust are registered to be offered through thirty
series and five classes: Fiduciary, Class A, Class B, Institutional and
Service. The Service Shares commenced offering on January 17, 1994 when
they were designated as "Retirement" Shares. On April 4, 1995, the name of
the Retirement Shares was changed to "Service" Shares. During the year
ended June 30, 1995, Service Shares transferred to Class A Shares, and as
of June 30, 1995, there were no shareholders in the Service Class.
Shareholders are entitled to one vote for each full share held and will
vote in the aggregate and not by class or series, except as otherwise
expressly required by law or when the Board of Trustees has determined that
the matter to be voted on affects only the interest of shareholders of a
particular class or series. The following is a summary of transactions in
Fund shares for the fiscal years ending June 30, 1995 and 1994:

6. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:
Investing in financial instruments such as written options, futures and
sales of forward foreign currency contracts involves risk in excess of the
amounts reflected in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The face or
contract amounts reflect the extent of the involvement the Funds have in
the particular class of instrument. Risks associated with these instruments
include an imperfect correlation between the movements in the price of the
instruments and the price of the underlying securities and interest rates,
an illiquid secondary market for the instruments or inability of
counterparties to perform under the terms of the contract, and changes in
the value of currency relative to the U.S. dollar. The Funds enter into
these contracts primarily as a means to hedge against adverse fluctuation
in securities.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

THE ONE GROUP FAMILY OF MUTUAL FUNDS JUNE 30, 1995
To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees
of The One Group:
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of the
Asset Allocation Fund, the Income Equity Fund, the Equity Index Fund, the Large
Company Value Fund, the Blue Chip Equity Fund, the Large Company Growth Fund,
the Disciplined Value Fund, the Small Company Growth Fund, and the International
Equity Index Fund (nine series of The One Group), including the schedule of
portfolio investments, as of June 30, 1995, and the related statements of
operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets and
financial highlights for each of the periods indicated herein. These financial
statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of The One Group's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and financial highlights based on our audits. The financial
highlights for the year ended June 30, 1993 and for the period from February 28,
1992 (commencement of operations) to June 30, 1992 for the Large Company Growth
Fund were audited by other auditors whose report dated August 25, 1993 expressed
an unqualified opinion on the financial highlights.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of June
30, 1995 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Asset Allocation Fund, the Income Equity Fund, the Equity Index Fund, the Large
Company Value Fund, the Blue Chip Equity Fund, the Large Company Growth Fund,
the Disciplined Value Fund, the Small Company Growth Fund, and the International
Equity Index Fund of The One Group as of June 30, 1995, the results of their
operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets and the
financial highlights for each of the periods indicated herein, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

THE ONE GROUP FAMILY OF MUTUAL FUNDS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1995
1. ORGANIZATION:
The One Group (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as a diversified, open-end
investment company established as a Massachusetts business trust. The
Trust is registered to offer five classes of shares: Fiduciary, Class A,
Class B, Institutional, and Service. The Trust currently offers
twenty-four funds. The accompanying financial statements and financial
highlights are those of the Government ARM Fund, the Limited Volatility
Bond Fund, the Intermediate Bond Fund, the Government Bond Fund, the
Income Bond Fund, the Intermediate Tax-Free Bond Fund, the Tax-Free Bond
Fund, the Kentucky Municipal Bond Fund, and the Ohio Municipal Bond Fund
(individually, a "Fund"; collectively, the "Funds") only. During the
year ended June 30, 1995, The One Group Short-Term Global Bond Fund
ceased operations.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles consistently
followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements.
SECURITY VALUATION
Corporate debt securities and debt securities of U.S. issuers (other
than short-term investments maturing in 60 days or less), including
municipal securities, are valued on the basis of valuations provided
by dealers or by an independent pricing service approved by the
Board of Trustees. Short-term investments maturing in 60 days or
less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
Investments for which there are no such quotations or valuations are
valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the investment
advisor under the direction of the Board of Trustees. Futures
contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by
the board of trade or an exchange on which they are traded. Options
traded on an exchange are valued using the last sale price or, in
the absence of a sale, the last offering price. Options traded
over-the-counter are valued using dealer-supplied valuations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
Each Fund may invest in repurchase agreements with institutions that
the Fund's investment advisor has determined are creditworthy. Each
repurchase agreement is recorded at cost. The Fund requires that the
securities purchased in a repurchase transaction be transferred to
the custodian in a manner sufficient to enable the Fund to obtain
those securities in the event of a counterparty default. The seller,
under the repurchase agreement, is required to maintain the value of
the securities held at not less than the repurchase price, including
accrued interest.
WRITTEN OPTIONS
The Funds may write covered call or put options for which premiums
received are recorded as liabilities and are subsequently adjusted
to the current value of the options written. Premiums received from
writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums
received from writing options which are exercised or are closed are
offset against the proceeds received or amount paid on the
transaction to determine realized gain or loss.
FUTURES CONTRACTS
The Funds may enter into futures contracts for the delayed delivery
of securities at a fixed price at some future date or the change in
the value of a specified financial index over a predetermined time
period. Cash or
Continued

THE ONE GROUP FAMILY OF MUTUAL FUNDS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED JUNE 30, 1995
securities are deposited with brokers in order to maintain a
position. Subsequent payments made or received by the fund based on
the daily change in the market value of the position are recorded as
unrealized gain or loss until the contract is closed out, at which
time the gain or loss is realized.
INDEXED SECURITIES
The Funds may invest in indexed securities whose value is linked
either directly or inversely to changes in foreign currencies,
interest rates, commodities, indices or other reference instruments.
Indexed securities may be more volatile than the referenced
instrument itself, but any loss is limited to the amount of the
original investment.
MORTGAGE ROLLS
The Funds may enter into mortgage "dollar rolls" in which the Fund
sells mortgage-backed securities for delivery in the current month
and simultaneously contracts to repurchase substantially similar
securities on a specified future date. During the roll period, the
Fund forgoes principal and interest paid on the mortgage-backed
securities. The Fund is compensated by fee income, for the
difference between the current sales price and the lower forward
price for the future purchase.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INCOME
Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Net
realized gains or losses on sales of securities are determined on
the specific identification cost method. Interest income and
expenses are recognized on the accrual basis. Interest income,
including any discount or premium, is accrued as earned using the
effective interest method.
EXPENSES
Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged directly to
that Fund, while the expenses which are attributable to more than
one fund of the Trust are allocated among the respective Funds. Each
class of shares bears its pro-rata portion of expenses attributable
to its series, except that each class separately bears expenses
related specifically to that class such as distribution fees.
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS
Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid
monthly for each Fund. Net realized capital gains, if any, are
distributed at least annually. Dividends are declared separately for
each class. No class has preferential dividend rights; differences
in per share dividend rates are generally due to differences in
separate class expenses.
Net investment income and net capital gain distributions are
determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may
differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These
differences are due primarily to differing treatments for
mortgage-backed securities, expiring capital loss carryforwards, and
deferrals of certain losses.
ORGANIZATION COSTS
Costs incurred by the Trust in connection with its organization,
including the fees and expenses of registering and qualifying its
shares for distribution have been deferred and are being amortized
using the straight-line method over a period of five years beginning
with the commencement of each Fund's operations. All such costs have
been allocated among the funds of the Trust pro-rata, based on the
relative net assets of each fund. In the event that any of the
initial shares are redeemed during such period by any holder
thereof, the related
Continued

THE ONE GROUP FAMILY OF MUTUAL FUNDS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED JUNE 30, 1995
fund will be reimbursed by such holder for any unamortized
organization costs in the proportion as the number of initial shares
being redeemed bears to the number of initial shares outstanding at
the time of redemption.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The Trust treats each Fund as a separate entity for Federal income
tax purposes. Each Fund intends to qualify or to continue 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
net investment income and net realized capital gains sufficient to
relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes.
RECLASSIFICATIONS:
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1994 financial
statements and financial highlights in order to conform to the 1995
presentation.
3. SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST:
The Trust is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of
beneficial interest, with no par value which may, without shareholder
approval, be divided into an unlimited number of series of such shares
and any series may be classified or reclassified into one or more
classes. Currently, shares of the Trust are registered to be offered
through thirty series and five classes: Fiduciary, Class A, Class B,
Institutional and Service. The Service Shares commenced offering on
January 17, 1994 when they were designated as "Retirement" Shares. On
April 4, 1995, the name of the Retirement Shares was changed to
"Service" Shares. During the year ended June 30, 1995, Service Shares
transferred to Class A Shares, and as of June 30, 1995, there were no
shareholders in the Service Class. Shareholders are entitled to one vote
for each full share held and will vote in the aggregate and not by class
or series, except as otherwise expressly required by law or when the
Board of Trustees has determined that the matter to be voted on affects
only the interest of shareholders of a particular class or series. The
following is a summary of transactions in Fund shares for the fiscal
years ending June 30, 1995 and 1994:

4. INVESTMENT ADVISORY, ADMINISTRATIVE, AND DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENTS:
The Trust and Banc One Investment Advisors Corporation (the "Advisor")
are parties to an investment advisory agreement under which the Advisor
is entitled to receive an annual fee, computed daily and paid monthly,
equal to the following percentages of the Funds' average daily net
assets: 0.60% of the Income Bond, the Intermediate Bond, Limited
Volatility Bond, Ohio Municipal Bond, Kentucky Municipal Bond, and
Intermediate Tax-Free Bond Funds; 0.55% of the Government ARM Fund, and
0.45% of the Government Bond and Tax-Free Bond Funds.
The Trust and 440 Financial Group of Worcester ("440 Financial") are
parties to an administrative agreement under which 440 Financial (the
"Administrator") provides services for a fee that is computed daily and
payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.20% on the first $1.5 billion of
the combined average net assets of the Funds and other funds offered by
the Trust; 0.18% on the next $0.5 billion of the combined average net
assets, and 0.16% on the combined average net assets over $2 billion.
Effective April 1, 1995, The Shareholder Services Group, Inc, d/b/a 440
Financial became the Administrator to the Trust. Also effective April
1, 1995, the Advisor became the Sub-Administrator pursuant to an
agreement between the Administrator and the Advisor. The Advisor
assumed many of the administrative duties, for which it receives a fee
paid by the Administrator.
The Trust has adopted a distribution and shareholder services plan (the
"Plan") on behalf of the Class A, Class B and Service Class shares
pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. 440 Financial Distributors,
Inc. (the Distributor) acts as the distributor of the Trust's shares.
The Distributor receives an annual fee for its services of 0.35%, 1.00%,

6. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:
Investing in financial instruments such as written options, futures,
structured notes and indexed securities involves risk in excess of the
amounts reflected in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The face
or contract amounts reflect the extent of the involvement the funds have
in the particular class of instrument. Risks associated with these
instruments include an imperfect correlation between the movements in
the price of the instruments and the price of the underlying securities
and interest rates, an illiquid secondary market for the instruments or
inability of counterparties to perform under the terms of the contract.
The Funds enter into these contracts primarily as a means to hedge
against adverse fluctuations in securities.
7. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION:
At June 30, 1995 the following Funds have capital loss carryforwards

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED JUNE 30, 1995
The Income Bond Fund distributed approximately $4,206,000 as a long-term
capital gain dividend for the purposes of the dividends-paid deduction
for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995. Of the dividends paid from net
investment income by the Intermediate Tax-Free Bond Fund, the Tax-Free
Bond Fund, the Kentucky Municipal Bond Fund, and the Ohio Municipal Bond
Fund for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995, 100% constituted exempt
interest dividends for regular federal income tax purposes.
8. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK:
The Ohio and Kentucky Municipal Bond Funds invest primarily in debt
obligations issued by the respective States and their political
subdivisions, agencies and public authorities to obtain funds for
various public purposes. The Funds are more susceptible to economic and
political factors adversely affecting issuers of the States' specific
municipal securities than are municipal bond funds that are not
concentrated in these issuers to the same extent.
9. REORGANIZATION:
On October 7, 1994, the Board of Trustees approved an agreement and plan
of reorganization for the acquisition of the Trademark Funds by the
Trust. Under the agreement and plan of reorganization, all assets and
liabilities of the Trademark Government Income Fund, the Trademark
Short-Intermediate Government Fund and the Trademark Kentucky Municipal
Bond Fund (the "Acquired Funds") were acquired by the Government Bond
Fund, the Intermediate Bond Fund, and the Kentucky Municipal Bond Fund,
respectively (the "Acquiring Funds"), in exchange for shares of the each
Acquiring Fund. The reorganization, which qualified as a tax-free
exchange for federal income tax purposes, was completed following
approval by the shareholders of the Acquired Funds. The following is a
summary of Shares Outstanding, Net Assets, Unrealized Depreciation and
Net Asset Value per share immediately before and after the
reorganization (amounts in thousands except net asset value):

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE ONE GROUP FAMILY OF MUTUAL FUNDS JUNE 30, 1995
To the Shareholders and Board of
Trustees of The One Group:
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of the
Government ARM Fund, the Limited Volatility Bond Fund, the Intermediate Bond
Fund, the Government Bond Fund, the Income Bond Fund, the Intermediate Tax-Free
Bond Fund, the Tax-Free Bond Fund, the Kentucky Municipal Bond Fund, and the
Ohio Municipal Bond Fund (nine series of The One Group), including the schedule
of portfolio investments, as of June 30, 1995, and the related statements of
operations, the statements of changes in net assets and financial highlights for
each of the periods indicated herein. These financial statements and financial
highlights are the responsibility of The One Group's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial highlights based on our audits. The financial highlights for the year
ended June 30, 1993 and for the period from February 28, 1992 (commencement of
operations) to June 30, 1992 for the Intermediate Bond Fund were audited by
other auditors whose report dated August 25, 1993 expressed an unqualified
opinion on the financial highlights. The statement of operations for the period
from February 1, 1994 to January 19, 1995 and the statement of changes in net
assets and the financial highlights for the period from February 1, 1994 to
January 19, 1995 and the period from March 12, 1993 (commencement of operations)
to January 31, 1994 for the Kentucky Municipal Bond Fund were audited by other
auditors whose report dated April 6, 1995 expressed an unqualified opinion on
these statements and the financial highlights.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of June
30, 1995 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Government ARM Fund, the Limited Volatility Bond Fund, the Intermediate Bond
Fund, the Government Bond Fund, the Income Bond Fund, the Intermediate Tax-Free
Bond Fund, the Tax-Free Bond Fund, the Kentucky Municipal Bond Fund, and the
Ohio Municipal Bond Fund of The One Group as of June 30, 1995, the results of
their operations, the changes in their net assets, and the financial highlights
for each of the periods indicated herein, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

THE ONE GROUP FAMILY OF MUTUAL FUNDS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1995
1. ORGANIZATION:
The One Group (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as a diversified, open-end investment
company established as a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust is
registered to offer five classes of shares: Fiduciary, Class A, Class B,
Institutional, and Service. The Trust currently offers twenty-four funds.
The accompanying financial statements and financial highlights are those of
the Treasury Only Money Market Fund and the Government Money Market Fund
(individually, a "Fund" collectively, the "Funds") only.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles consistently followed by the
Trust in preparation of its financial statements.
SECURITY VALUATION:
Securities are valued utilizing the amortized cost method permitted in
accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. Under the amortized cost
method, discount or premium is amortized on a constant basis to the
maturity of the security. In addition, the Funds may not (a) purchase
any instrument with a remaining maturity greater than thirteen months
unless such instrument is subject to a demand feature, or (b) maintain a
dollar-weighted average maturity which exceeds 90 days.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS:
The Funds may invest in repurchase agreements with institutions that the
Fund's investment advisor has determined are creditworthy. Each
repurchase agreement is recorded at cost. The Fund requires that the
securities purchased in a repurchase transaction be transferred to the
custodian in a manner sufficient to enable the Fund to obtain those
securities in the event of a counterparty default. The seller, under the
repurchase agreement, is required to maintain the value of the
securities held at not less than the repurchase price, including accrued
interest.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INCOME:
Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Net
realized gains or losses on sales of securities are determined on the
specific identification cost method. Interest income and expenses are
recognized on the accrual basis. Interest income, including any discount
or premium, is accrued as earned using the effective interest method.
EXPENSES:
Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged directly to that
Fund, while the expenses which are attributable to more than one Fund of
the Trust are allocated among the respective Funds.
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS:
Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid
monthly. Net income for this purpose consists of interest accrued and
discount earned (including both original issue discount and market
discount) less amortization of any market premium and accrued expenses.
Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually.
Net investment income and net capital gain distributions are determined
in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from
generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are
primarily due to differing treatments for expiring capital loss
carryforwards and deferrals of certain losses.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED JUNE 30, 1995
ORGANIZATION COSTS:
Costs incurred by the Trust in connection with its organization,
including the fees and expenses of registering and qualifying its shares
for distribution have been deferred and are being amortized using the
straight-line method over a period of five years beginning with the
commencement of each Fund's operations. All such costs have been
allocated among the Funds of the Trust pro-rata, based on the relative
net assets of each Fund. In the event that any of the initial shares are
redeemed during such period by any holder thereof, the related Fund will
be reimbursed by such holder for any unamortized organization costs in
the proportion as the number of initial shares being redeemed bears to
the number of initial shares outstanding at the time of redemption.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES:
Each Fund intends to continue 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 net investment income and net
realized capital gains sufficient to relieve it from all, or
substantially all, federal income taxes.
3. SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST:
The Trust has an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, with no
par value which may, without shareholder approval, be divided into an
unlimited number of series of such shares and any series may be classified
or reclassified into one or more classes. Currently, shares of the Trust
are registered to be offered through thirty series and five classes:
Fiduciary, Class A, Class B, Institutional and Service. Shareholders are
entitled to one vote for each full share held and will vote in the
aggregate and not by class or series, except as otherwise expressly
required by law or when the Board of Trustees has determined that the
matter to be voted on affects only the interest of shareholders of a
particular class or series.
4. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND ADMINISTRATIVE AGREEMENTS:
The Trust and Banc One Investment Advisors Corporation (the "Advisor") are
parties to an investment advisory agreement under which the Advisor is
entitled to receive a fee, computed daily and paid monthly, at an annual
rate of 0.08% of the average daily net assets of each Fund.
The Trust and 440 Financial Group of Worcester ("440 Financial") are
parties to an administrative agreement under which 440 Financial (the
"Administrator") provides services for a fee that is computed daily and
payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.05% of each Fund's average daily
net assets. Effective April 1, 1995, The Shareholder Services Group, Inc,
d/b/a 440 Financial became the Administrator to the Trust. Also effective
April 1, 1995, the Advisor became the Sub-Administrator pursuant to an
agreement between the Administrator and the Advisor. The Advisor assumed
many of the administrative duties, for which it receives a fee paid by the
Administrator.
Certain officers of the Trust are also officers of the Administrator. Such
officers receive no compensation from the Funds for serving in their
respective roles.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE ONE GROUP FAMILY OF MUTUAL FUNDS JUNE 30, 1995
To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of
The One Group:
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of the
Treasury Only Money Market Fund and the Government Money Market Fund (two series
of The One Group), including the schedules of portfolio investments, as of June
30, 1995, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the
statements of changes in net assets for the two years in the period then ended,
and financial highlights for each of the periods indicated herein. These
financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of The One
Group's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of June
30, 1995 by correspondence with the custodian. An audit also includes assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Treasury Only Money Market Fund and the Government Money Market Fund of The One
Group as of June 30, 1995, the results of their operations for the year then
ended, the changes in their net assets for the two years in the period then
ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated herein, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

APPENDIX
--------
The nationally recognized statistical rating organizations (individually, an
"NRSRO") that may be utilized by the Advisers or the Sub-Advisers with regard to
portfolio investments for the Funds include Moody's Investors Service, Inc.
("Moody's"), Standard & Poor's Corporation ("S&P"), Duff & Phelps, Inc.
("Duff"), Fitch Investors Service, Inc. ("Fitch"), IBCA Limited and its
affiliate, IBCA Inc. (collectively, "IBCA"), and Thomson BankWatch, Inc.
("Thomson"). Set forth below is a description of the relevant ratings of each
such NRSRO. The NRSROs that may be utilized by the Advisers or the Sub-Advisers
and the description of each NRSRO's ratings is as of the date of this Statement
of Additional Information, and may subsequently change.
LONG-TERM DEBT RATINGS (may be assigned, for example, to corporate and municipal
bonds)
Description of the debt ratings by Moody's (Moody's applies numerical modifiers
(1, 2, and 3) in each rating category to indicate the security's ranking within
the category):
Aaa Bonds which are rated Aaa are judged to be of the best
quality. They carry the smallest degree of investment risk and
are generally referred to as "gilt edged." Interest payments
are protected by a large or by an exceptionally stable margin
and principal is secure. While the various protective elements
are likely to change, such changes as can be visualized are
most unlikely to impair the fundamentally strong position of
such issues.
Aa Bonds which are rated Aa are judged to be of high quality by
all standards. Together with the Aaa group they comprise what
are generally known as high grade bonds. They are rated lower
than the best bonds because margins of protection may not be
as large as in Aaa securities or fluctuation of protective
elements may be of greater amplitude or there may be other
elements present which make the long-term risk appear somewhat
larger than in Aaa securities.
A Bonds which are rated A possess many favorable investment
attributes and are to be considered as upper-medium-grade
obligations. Factors giving security to principal and interest
are considered adequate, but elements may be present which
suggest a susceptibility to impairment some time in the
future.
Baa Bonds which are rated Baa are considered as medium grade
obligations, i.e., they are neither highly protected nor
poorly secured. Interest payments and principal security
appear adequate for the present but certain protective
elements may be lacking or may be characteristically
unreliable over any great length of time. Such bonds lack
outstanding investment characteristics and in fact have
speculative characteristics as well.
400
<PAGE> 706
Ba Bonds rated Ba are more uncertain and have speculative
elements. The protection of interest and principal payments is
not well safeguarded during good and bad times.
B Bonds rated B lack the characteristics of a desirable
investment; i.e., potentially low assurance of timely interest
and principal payments or maintenance of other contract terms
over time.
Caa Bonds rated Caa have poor standing and may be in default.
These bonds carry an element of danger with respect to
principal and interest payments.
C Bonds rated Ca are speculative to a high degree and could be
in default or have other marked shortcomings. C is the lowest
rating. Bonds in this category have extremely poor prospects
of ever attaining investment standing.
Description of the debt ratings by S&P (S&P may apply a plus (+) or minus (-) to
a particular rating classification to show relative standing within that
classification):
AAA Debt rated AAA has the highest rating assigned by S&P.
Capacity to pay interest and repay principal is extremely
strong.
AA Debt rated AA has a very strong capacity to pay interest and
repay principal and differs from the higher rated issues only
in small degree.
A Debt rated A has a strong capacity to pay interest and repay
principal although it is somewhat more susceptible to the
adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic
conditions than debt in higher rated categories.
BBB Debt rated BBB is regarded as having an adequate capacity to
pay interest and repay principal. Whereas it normally exhibits
adequate protection parameters, adverse economic conditions or
changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened
capacity to pay interest and repay principal for debt in this
category than in higher rated categories.
BB Bonds rated BB have less near-term vulnerability to default
than other speculative issues. However, they face major
ongoing uncertainties or exposure to adverse business,
financial or economic conditions which could lead to
inadequate capacity to meet timely interest and principal
payments. The BB rating category is also used for debt
subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an actual or
implied BBB rating.
B Bonds rated B have a greater vulnerability to default but
currently have the capacity to meet interest payments and
principal repayments. Adverse business, financial, or economic
conditions will likely impair capacity or
401
<PAGE> 707
willingness to pay interest and repay principal. The B rating
category is also used for debt subordinated to senior debt
that is assigned an actual or implied BB or BB- rating.
CCC Bonds rated CCC have currently identifiable vulnerability to
default, and are dependent upon favorable business, financial,
and economic conditions to meet timely payment of interest and
repayment of principal. In the event of adverse business,
financial, or economic conditions, they are not likely to have
the capacity to pay interest and repay principal. The CCC
rating category is also used for debt subordinated to senior
debt that is assigned an actual or implied B or B- rating.
CC The rating CC typically is applied to debt subordinated to
senior debt that is assigned an actual or implied CCC rating.
C The rating C typically is applied to debt subordinated to
senior debt that is assigned an actual or implied CCC rating.
The C ratings may be used to cover a situation where a
bankruptcy petition has been filed, but debt service payments
are continued.
CI The rating CI is reserved for income bonds on which no income
is being paid.
D Bonds rated D are in payment default. The D rating category is
used when interest payments or principal payments are not made
on the date due, even if the applicable grace period has not
expired, unless Standard & Poor believes that such payments
will be made during such grace period. The D rating also will
be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition if debt
service payments are jeopardized.
+/- Plus (+) or minus (-). Ratings from AA to CCC may be modified
by the addition of a plus or minus sign to show relative
standing within the major rating categories.
Description of the three highest long-term debt ratings by Duff:
AAA Highest credit quality. The risk factors are negligible being
only slightly more than for risk-free U.S. Treasury debt.
AA+ High credit quality. Protection factors are strong.
AA Risk is modest but may vary slightly from time to time because
of economic conditions.
402
<PAGE> 708
A+ Protection factors are average but adequate. However, risk
factors are more variable and greater in periods of economic
stress.
Description of the three highest long-term debt ratings by Fitch (plus or minus
signs are used with a rating symbol to indicate the relative position of the
credit within the rating category):
AAA Bonds considered to be investment grade and of the highest
credit quality. The obligor has an exceptionally strong
ability to pay interest and repay principal, which is unlikely
to be affected by reasonably foreseeable events.
AA Bonds considered to be investment grade and of very high
credit quality. The obligor's ability to pay interest and
repay principal is very strong, although not quite as strong
as bonds rated "AAA." Because bonds rated in the "AAA" and
"AA" categories are not significantly vulnerable to
foreseeable future developments, short-term debt of these
issues is generally rated "[-]+."
A Bonds considered to be investment grade and of high credit
quality. The obligor's ability to pay interest and repay
principal is considered to be strong, but may be more
vulnerable to adverse changes in economic conditions and
circumstances than bonds with higher ratings.
IBCA's description of its three highest long-term debt ratings:
AAA Obligations for which there is the lowest expectation of
investment risk. Capacity for timely repayment of principal
and interest is substantial such that adverse changes in
business, economic or financial conditions are unlikely to
increase investment risk significantly.
AA Obligations for which there is a very low expectation of
investment risk. Capacity for timely repayment of principal
and interest is substantial. Adverse changes in business,
economic, or financial conditions may increase investment risk
albeit not very significantly.
A Obligations for which there is a low expectation of investment
risk. Capacity for timely repayment of principal and interest
is strong, although adverse changes in business, economic or
financial conditions may lead to increased investment risk.
SHORT-TERM DEBT RATINGS (may be assigned, for example, to commercial paper,
master demand notes, bank instruments, and letters of credit)
Moody's description of its three highest short-term debt ratings:
403
<PAGE> 709
Prime-1 Issuers rated Prime-1 (or supporting institutions) have
a superior capacity for repayment of senior short-term
promissory obligations. Prime-1 repayment capacity will
normally be evidenced by many of the following
characteristics:
-Leading market positions in well-established
industries.
-High rates of return on funds employed.
-Conservative capitalization structures with
moderate reliance on debt and ample asset
protection.
-Broad margins in earnings coverage of fixed
financial charges and high internal cash
generation.
-Well-established access to a range of
financial markets and assured sources of
alternate liquidity.
Prime-2 Issuers rated Prime-2 (or supporting institutions) have
a strong capacity for repayment of senior short-term
debt obligations. This will normally be evidenced by
many of the characteristics cited above but to a lesser
degree. Earnings trends and coverage ratios, while
sound, may be more subject to variation. Capitalization
characteristics, while still appropriate, may be more
affected by external conditions. Ample alternate
liquidity is maintained.
Prime-3 Issuers rated Prime-3 (or supporting institutions) have
an acceptable ability for repayment of senior
short-term obligations. The effect of industry
characteristics and market compositions may be more
pronounced. Variability in earnings and profitability
may result in changes in the level of debt protection
measurements and may require relatively high financial
leverage. Adequate alternate liquidity is maintained.
S&P's description of its three highest short-term debt ratings:
A-1 This designation indicates that the degree of safety regarding
timely payment is strong. Those issues determined to have
extremely strong safety characteristics are denoted with a
plus sign (+).
A-2 Capacity for timely payment on issues with this designation is
satisfactory. However, the relative degree of safety is not as
high as for issues designated "A-1."
404
<PAGE> 710
A-3 Issues carrying this designation have adequate capacity for
timely payment. They are, however, more vulnerable to the
adverse effects of changes in circumstances than obligations
carrying the higher designations.
Duff's description of its three highest short-term debt ratings (Duff
incorporates gradations of "1+" (one plus) and "1-" (one minus) to assist
investors in recognizing quality differences within the highest rating
category):
Duff 1+ Highest certainty of timely payment. Short-term liquidity,
including internal operating factors and/or access to
alternative sources of funds, is outstanding, and safety is
just below risk-free U.S. Treasury short-term obligations.
Duff 1 Very high certainty of timely payment. Liquidity factors are
excellent and supported by good fundamental protection
factors. Risk factors are minor.
Duff 1- High certainty of timely payment. Liquidity factors are
strong and supported by good fundamental protection factors.
Risk factors are very small.
Duff 2 Good certainty of timely payment. Liquidity factors and
company fundamentals are sound. Although ongoing funding needs
may enlarge total financing requirements, access to capital
markets is good. Risk factors are small.
Duff 3 Satisfactory liquidity and other protection factors qualify
issue as to investment grade. Risk factors are larger and
subject to more variation. Nevertheless, timely payment is
expected.
Fitch's description of its three highest short-term debt ratings:
F-1+ Exceptionally Strong Credit Quality. Issues assigned this
rating are regarded as having the strongest degree of
assurance for timely payment.
F-1 Very Strong Credit Quality. Issues assigned this rating
reflect an assurance of timely payment only slightly less in
degree than issues rated F-1+.
F-2 Good Credit Quality. Issues assigned this rating have a
satisfactory degree of assurance for timely payment, but the
margin of safety is not as great as for issues assigned F-1+
or F-1 ratings.
405
<PAGE> 711
F-3 Fair Credit Quality. Issues assigned this rating have
characteristics suggesting that the degree of assurance for
timely payment is adequate, however, near-term adverse changes
could cause these securities to be rated below investment
grade.
IBCA's description of its three highest short-term debt ratings:
A+ Obligations supported by the highest capacity for timely
repayment.
A1 Obligations supported by a very strong capacity for timely
repayment.
A2 Obligations supported by a strong capacity for timely
repayment, although such capacity may be susceptible to
adverse changes in business, economic or financial conditions.
Short-Term Loan/Municipal Note Ratings
- --------------------------------------
Moody's description of its two highest short-term loan/municipal note ratings:
MIG-1/VMIG-1 This designation denotes best quality. There is present
strong protection by established cash flows, superior
liquidity support or demonstrated broad-based access to
the market for refinancing.
MIG-2/VMIG-2 This designation denotes high quality. Margins of
protection are ample although not so large as in the
preceding group.
S&P's description of its two highest municipal note ratings:
SP-1 Very strong or strong capacity to pay principal and
interest. Those issues determined to possess overwhelming

The TBW Short-Term Ratings apply to commercial paper, other senior short-term
obligations and deposit obligations of the entities to which the rating has been
assigned.
The TBW Short-Term Ratings apply only to unsecured instruments that have a
maturity of one year or less.
The TBW Short-Term Ratings specifically assess the likelihood of an untimely
payment of principal or interest.
TBW-1 The highest category; indicates a very high degree of
likelihood that principal and interest will be paid on a
timely basis.
TBW-2 The second highest category; while the degree of safety
regarding timely repayment of principal and interest is
strong, the relative degree of safety is not as high as
for issues rated "TBW-1."
TBW-3 The lowest investment grade category; indicates that while
more susceptible to adverse developments (both internal
and external) than obligations with higher ratings,
capacity to service principal and interest in a timely
fashion is considered adequate.
TBW-4 The lowest rating category; this rating is regarded as
non-investment grade and therefore speculative.
