PRESIDENTS'
MESSAGE
                           DEAR SHAREHOLDER:

                           We're rapidly approaching the end of the year, and
                           the end of the twentieth century. While we all look
                           forward to the beginning of the next century, let's
                           first take a look back at the last six months and
                           then we'll discuss how Nations Funds is positioned as
                           we head into the year 2000.

                           RIDING THE WAVES IN THE U.S.

                           The last six months offered a snapshot of what we
                           often refer to as market volatility. And when we say
                           market volatility, we mean the ups and downs of the
                           U.S. stock market. Basically, what went up in the
                           second quarter of the year fell right back down in
                           the third quarter. During the spring, we witnessed
                           another Dow Jones Industrial Average*
                           milestone -- crossing the 11,000 mark -- and we saw a
                           broadening in the stock market, as value stocks and
                           small-company stocks came back into favor. This was a
                           change from the past few years where rallies have
                           been led by a narrow group of large-company stocks.

                           However, strong economic growth -- combined with
                           continued low inflation and low
                           unemployment -- caused the Federal Reserve Board to
                           raise interest rates twice by a total of 0.50%. These
                           rate hikes (on June 30 and August 24) caused the
                           markets to resemble the rough surf of the Atlantic
                           during one of our many hurricanes this past summer.
                           (In fact, Hurricane Floyd actually shut down Wall
                           Street in mid-September with torrential rains and
                           high winds.) At any rate, the stock market, as
                           represented by the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite
                           Stock Price Index (S&P 500)**, finished the third
                           quarter at 5.36% (year-to-date through September 30,
                           1999), 10% off its August high, with the average
                           stock in the S&P 500 off 20% from its high.

                           A BRIGHTER PICTURE OVERSEAS

                           International stock markets performed well in the
                           second quarter and actually outperformed the U.S. for
                           the first time in a number of years. The Morgan
                           Stanley Capital International (MSCI) Europe,
                           Australasia and Far East (EAFE) Index gained 4.4% in
                           the third quarter. A resurgent Japanese economy
                           helped to push international equity markets higher.

                           This is yet another example of the importance of
                           diversification. Investors investing exclusively in
                           the U.S. could miss out on opportunities overseas.
                           One way to ensure that your portfolio is properly
                           diversified is to seek the professional advice of an
                           investment professional. An investment professional
                           can help explain the additional risks involved in
                           international investing, as well as educate you on
                           the potential rewards that have historically come
                           from a diversified portfolio including international
                           investments.

                            * The Dow Jones Industrial Average is a
                              price-weighted index of 30 of the largest, most
                              widely held stocks traded on the New York Stock
                              Exchange. It is unmanaged and unavailable for
                              investment.

                              Index is an unmanaged index of 500 widely held
                              common stocks. It is unavailable for investment.

                           STAY THE COURSE

                           While the ride has been bumpy over the last six
                           months, we believe the best course of action for an
                           investor is to stay focused on your long-term goals
                           and remain invested. We understand that Y2K has been
                           on investors' minds for quite some time now. As most
                           Americans have come to realize, substantial efforts
                           have been made by companies in the U.S. and abroad to
                           try to ensure that the Y2K problem will be avoided.
                           Regardless, Y2K will come and go and those investors
                           that stick to their long-term goals, as history has
                           shown, stand a better chance of attaining them.

                           WHAT'S NEW AT NATIONS FUNDS

                           We've made some great strides during the past six
                           months and are poised to make Nations Funds a
                           stronger presence in the mutual fund industry in the
                           new year. We completed the largest merger in mutual
                           fund history on May 21 when we combined Pacific
                           Horizon Funds with Nations Funds. Combining these two
                           entities provides you with more investment choices
                           and a broader range of investment expertise. This is
                           part of our ongoing commitment to providing you with
                           the best products and services, and helping you
                           pursue a lifetime of financial goals.

                           In fact, our selection of mutual funds continued to
                           grow as we introduced Nations Strategic Equity Fund,
                           a large-company stock fund managed for tax
                           efficiency, on August 1. This fund is managed by Bank
                           of America Investment Management -- a Nations Funds
                           Manager of Distinction(SM).

                           We look forward to the opportunities ahead of us in
                           the new year and to making your investment experience
                           with Nations Funds a successful one. Should you have
                           any questions or comments on your semiannual report,
                           please contact your investment professional or call
                           us at 1.800.321.7854. You can also visit us online at
                           www.nations-funds.com.

                           Once again, thank you for being a part of the Nations
                           Funds family.

  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS                                      (UNAUDITED)

Nations Fund Trust (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end investment company. At
September 30, 1999, the Trust offered thirty-six separate portfolios. These
financial statements pertain only to the four managed index portfolios of the
Trust (each a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds"). Financial statements for
the other portfolios of the Trust are presented under separate cover. The Funds
currently offer two classes of shares: Primary A Shares and Investor A Shares.
Managed Index Fund also offers Primary B Shares. Shareholders of a Fund have
equal voting rights on matters affecting all shareholders of the Fund. In
addition, each class of shares of a Fund has exclusive voting rights on matters
that relate solely to that class and separate voting rights on matters in which
the interests of one class differ from the interests of any other class.

1.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual
results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of
significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of
their financial statements.

Securities valuation:  Securities which are traded on a recognized exchange or
on NASDAQ are valued at the last sales price on the exchange or market on which
such securities are primarily traded. Securities traded only over-the-counter
are valued at the closing bid prices or, if no sale occurred on such day, at the
mean of the current bid and asked prices. Restricted securities, securities for
which market quotations are not readily available, and certain other assets are
valued by the investment advisor under the supervision of the Board of Trustees.
Short-term investments that mature in 60 days or less are valued at amortized
cost.

Futures contracts:  Each Fund may invest in futures contracts. Upon entering
into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit with the broker an
amount of cash or cash equivalents equal to a specified percentage of the
contract amount. This is known as the "initial margin." Subsequent payments
("variation margin") are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the
daily fluctuation of the value of the contract.

During the period the futures contract is open, changes in the value of the
contract are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by "marking-to-market" on
a daily basis to reflect the market value of the contract. The Fund recognizes a
realized gain or loss when the contract is closed, equal to the difference
between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the Fund's
basis in the contract.

Risks of investments in futures contracts include the possible movement of the
securities or indices underlying the contracts, the possibility that there may
not be a liquid secondary market for the contracts, that a change in the value
of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying
securities, or that the counterparty to a contract may default on its obligation
to perform.

Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are
accounted for on trade date. Realized gains and losses are computed based on the
specific identification of securities sold. Interest income, adjusted for
accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is earned from settlement
date and recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on ex-
dividend date. Each Fund's investment income and realized and unrealized gains
and losses are allocated among its classes based upon the relative net assets of
each class of shares.

Dividends and distributions to shareholders: Distributions from net investment
income are declared and paid each month by the Managed Index Fund; all other
Funds declare and pay distributions each calendar quarter. Each Fund will
distribute net realized capital gains (including net short-term capital gains),
at least annually after the fiscal year in which the capital gains were earned,
unless offset by any available capital loss carryforward. Income distributions
and capital gain distributions on a Fund level are determined in accordance with
federal income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles.

Federal income tax:  Each Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated
investment company by complying with the applicable requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and by distributing substantially all of its
earnings to its shareholders. Therefore, no provision is made for Federal income
or excise taxes.

Expenses:  General expenses of the Trust are allocated to the Funds based upon
relative net assets or other expense allocation methodologies determined by the

                                       38

NATIONS FUNDS

  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)                          (UNAUDITED)

nature of the expense. Expenses directly attributable to a Fund or class of
shares are charged to such Fund or class in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. The Funds bear all costs in connection with their
organization, including the fees and expenses of registering and qualifying
their shares for distribution under Federal and state securities regulations.
All such costs are being amortized on a straight line basis over a period of
five years from commencement of operations.

2.  INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEE, SUB-ADVISORY FEE, ADMINISTRATION FEE AND RELATED
    PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Trust has entered into an investment advisory agreement (the "Investment
Advisory Agreement") with Banc of America Advisors, Inc. ("BAAI") (formerly
known as NationsBanc Advisors, Inc.), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bank of
America, N.A. ("Bank of America") (formerly known as NationsBank, N.A.), which
in turn is a wholly-owned banking subsidiary of Bank of America Corporation, a
bank holding company organized as a Delaware corporation. Pursuant to the
Investment Advisory Agreements, BAAI provides investment advisory services to
the Funds and is currently entitled to receive an advisory fee, calculated daily
and payable monthly, at the maximum annual rate of 0.40% of each Fund's average
daily net assets. Effective May 14, 1999, the maximum advisory fee payable by
the Funds decreased by 0.10% of the Funds' average daily net assets. Prior to
that date, BAAI was entitled to receive an advisory fee of 0.50% of each Funds'
average daily net assets.

The Trust has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with BAAI and TradeStreet
Investment Associates, Inc. ("TradeStreet"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bank
of America, pursuant to which TradeStreet is entitled to receive a sub-advisory
fee from BAAI at the maximum annual rate of 0.10% of each Fund's average daily
net assets.

Stephens Inc. ("Stephens") and BAAI serve as co-administrators of the Trust.
Under the co-administration agreements, Stephens and BAAI are entitled to
receive a combined fee, computed daily and paid monthly, at the maximum annual
rate of 0.23% of each Fund's average daily net assets. Effective May 14, 1999,
the combined co-administration fee payable by the Funds to Stephens and BAAI
increased by 0.10% of each Fund's average daily net assets. Prior to that date,
the combined co-administration fee payable by the Funds was 0.13% of a Fund's
average daily net assets. The Bank of New York ("BNY") serves as
sub-administrator of the Trust pursuant to an agreement with BAAI. For the six
months ended September 30, 1999, Stephens and BAAI earned $290,656 and $410,771,
respectively, from the Funds for their co-administration services.

BAAI and/or the sub-advisor and Stephens may, from time to time, reduce their
fees payable by each Fund. Effective August 1, 1999, BAAI and/or the sub-advisor
and Stephens agreed to reimburse expenses and/or waive their fees until July 31,
2000 to the extent that total expenses (excluding shareholder servicing and
distribution fees) exceed an annual rate of 0.50% of each respective Fund's
average daily net assets. Prior to that date, BAAI and/or the sub-advisor and
Stephens had voluntarily agreed to reimburse expenses and/or waive their fees to
maintain these total expense limits.

BNY serves as the custodian of the Trust's assets. For the six months ended
September 30, 1999, expenses of the Funds were reduced by $481 under expense
offset arrangements with BNY. The Funds could have invested a portion of the
assets utilized in connection with the expense offset arrangements in an income
producing asset if they had not entered into such arrangements.

First Data Investor Services Group, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of First
Data Corporation, serves as the transfer agent for the Funds' shares. Bank of
America serves as the sub-transfer agent for the Primary Shares of the Funds.
For the six months ended September 30, 1999, Bank of America earned
approximately $8,230 for providing such services.

Stephens also serves as distributor of the Funds' shares. For the six months
ended September 30, 1999, the Funds were informed that the distributor received
$0 in front end sales charges for sales of Investor A Shares and less than $500
in contingent deferred sales charges from the redemptions of shares which were
subject to such charges. A substantial portion of these fees is paid to
affiliates of Bank of America.

Effective July 1, 1999, the Board of Trustees of the Trust, along with the
Boards of Trustees/Directors of the other open-end registered investment
companies in the Nations Funds family, approved a new compensation structure for
the unaffiliated Trustees/Directors. The new structure compensates the
unaffiliated Trustees/Directors for their services to the open-end registered
investment companies in the Nations Funds family as a whole, rather than to
particular registered investment companies, or series or portfolios thereof. As
of September 30, 1999, the open-end registered investment companies in the
Nations Funds family were the Trust, Nations Funds, Inc., Nations

                                       39

NATIONS FUNDS

  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)                          (UNAUDITED)

Reserves, Nations Annuity Trust, Nations LifeGoal Funds, Inc. and Nations Master
Investment Trust. Under the new structure, each unaffiliated Trustee/Director
receives a base retainer fee from the open-end registered investment companies
in the amount of $65,000 per year, in addition to $5,000 for each in-person
meeting attended and $1,000 for each telephonic meeting attended. Each
unaffiliated Trustee/Director will be compensated only for a maximum of six
in-person meetings per calendar year. The Chairman of the Boards receives an
additional fee of 20% of the base retainer fee and the Chairman of the Audit
Committee receives an additional fee of 10% of the base retainer fee. The
members of the Nominating Committee receive additional compensation at the rate
of $1,000 per meeting attended. Each unaffiliated Trustee/ Director is also
reimbursed for expenses incurred in attending such meetings.

Prior to July 1, 1999, the Trust paid each unaffiliated Trustee an annual fee of
$1,000 ($3,000 for the Chairman of the Board), plus $500 per Fund and an
additional $1,000 for each in-person board meeting, and $500 for each telephonic
board meeting attended. The Trust also reimbursed expenses incurred by each
unaffiliated Trustee in attending such meetings.

The Trust's eligible Trustees may participate in non-qualified deferred
compensation and retirement plans which may be terminated at any time. All
benefits provided under these plans are unfunded and any payments to plan
participants are paid solely out of the Funds' assets. Income earned on each
plan participant's deferral account is tied to the rate of return of the
eligible mutual funds selected by the participants or, if no funds are selected,
to the rate of return of Nations Treasury Fund, a portfolio of Nations Fund,
Inc. The expense for the deferred compensation and retirement plans is included
in "Trustees' fees and expenses" in the Statements of operations.

Certain Funds have made daily investments of cash balances in Nations Cash
Reserves, a portfolio of Nations Reserves, another registered investment company
in the Nations Funds family, pursuant to an exemptive order received from the
Securities and Exchange Commission. For the six months ended September 30, 1999,
the Funds earned $184,951 in the aggregate from such investments, which is
included in interest income.

A significant portion of each Fund's Primary A Shares represents investments by
fiduciary accounts over which Bank of America has either sole or joint
investment discretion.

3.  SHAREHOLDER SERVICING AND DISTRIBUTION PLANS

The Trust has adopted a shareholder administration plan for Primary B Shares of
the Managed Index Fund and shareholder servicing plans and distribution plans
for the Investor A Shares of each Fund. The shareholder administration plan
permits the Managed Index Fund to compensate institutions for shareholder
administration services provided to customers that own Primary B Shares. The
shareholder servicing plans permit the Funds to compensate or reimburse
servicing agents for shareholder services provided by the servicing agents. The
distribution plans, adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, permit
the Funds to compensate or reimburse the distributor (and for Investor A Shares,
the distributor and/or selling agents) for activities or expenses primarily
intended to result in the sale of the classes' shares. Payments are made at an
annual rate, as a percentage of average daily net assets set from time to time
by the Board of Trustees, and are charged as expenses of each Fund directly to
the applicable class. A substantial portion of the expenses incurred pursuant to
these plans is paid to affiliates of Bank of America and BAAI.

At September 30, 1999, the rates in effect and plan limits, as a percentage of
average daily net assets, were as follows:

6.  SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST

As of September 30, 1999, an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest
without par value were authorized for the Trust. The Trust's Declaration of
Trust authorizes the Board of Trustees to classify or reclassify any authorized,
but unissued shares into one or more additional classes or series of shares. See
Schedules of capital stock activity.

7.  LINE OF CREDIT

The Trust participates in an uncommitted line of credit provided by BNY under a
line of credit agreement (the "Agreement"). Advances under the Agreement are
taken primarily for temporary or emergency purposes, including the meeting of
redemption requests that otherwise might require the untimely disposition of
securities. Interest on borrowings is payable at a specified Federal Funds rate
plus 0.50% on an annualized basis. Each participating Fund maintains a ratio of
no less than 4 to 1 net assets (not including amounts borrowed pursuant to the
Agreement) to the aggregate amount of indebtedness pursuant to the Agreement.

For the six months ended September 30, 1999, borrowings by the Funds under the
Agreement were as follows:

8.  SECURITIES LENDING

Under an agreement with BNY, the Funds can lend their portfolio securities to
approved brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. Loans are
collateralized by cash, in an amount at least equal to the market value of the
securities loaned. The cash collateral received is invested in Nations Cash
Reserves, a portfolio of Nations Reserves. A portion of the income generated by
the investment of the collateral, net of any rebates paid by BNY to borrowers,
is remitted to BNY as lending agent, and the remainder is paid to the Fund.
Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Fund has the right to use
the collateral to offset losses incurred. There would be a potential loss to the
Fund in the event the Fund is delayed or prevented from exercising its right to
dispose of the collateral. The Fund bears the risk of loss with respect to the
investment of collateral.

At September 30, 1999, the following Funds had securities on loan:
