(1) Registrant has elected to maintain registration of an indefinite number of
Participation Certificates ("PCs") pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the Investment
Company Act of 1940. Registrant's Rule 24f-2 Notice for its fiscal year ended
December 31, 1994 was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
February 28, 1995.
(2) Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fees,
based on an offering price of $9.97 with respect to PCs of the Short-Term
Portfolio on March 27, 1995.
(3) The maximum aggregate offering price for Registrant's Portfolio PCs with
respect to its Money Market and Short-Term Portfolios is calculated pursuant
to Rule 24e-2 under the 1940 Act. During the year ended December 31, 1994,
Registrant redeemed a total of 6,121,061,465 Money Market Portfolio PCs and
18,429,870 Short-Term Portfolio PCs, respectively. Of these redeemed PCs,
5,895,616,284 Money Market Portfolio PCs and 8,241,176 Short-Term Portfolio
PCs were used for reductions pursuant to paragraph (c) of Rule 24f-2 in
Registrant's Rule 24f-2 Notice dated on or about February 28, 1995 for the
year ended December 31, 1994, and none of the redeemed PCs were used for
reductions pursuant to Rule 24e-2 in previous post-effective amendments filed
during the current fiscal year. As a result, 225,445,181 redeemed Money
Market Portfolio PCs and 10,188,694 redeemed Short-Term Portfolio PCs are
being used to reduce, pursuant to paragraph (a) of Rule 24e-2, the number of
PCs for which the registration fee is payable with respect to this Post-
Effective Amendment.

PLAN INVESTMENT FUND, INC.
Plan Investment Fund, Inc. (the "Investment Company") is a diversified
open-end management investment company available for members and licensees of
the Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association, an association of independent Blue
Cross and Blue Shield Plans, and certain related organizations. The
Investment Company was organized to offer portfolios designed to provide
liquidity and professional investment management and at present offers
Participation Certificates (individually, a "PC" and, collectively, "PCs") in
two (2) separate portfolios:
The Money Market Portfolio seeks a high level of current income
consistent with stability of principal by investing in high quality money
market instruments, including U.S. Government, bank and commercial
obligations. The Money Market Portfolio may have an average Portfolio
maturity of up to ninety (90) days and may buy instruments with up to one
(1) year remaining until maturity.
The Short-Term Portfolio also invests in high quality U.S.
Government, bank and commercial obligations, but typically with longer
maturities than the Money Market Portfolio, and seeks to maximize total
return, which includes interest income and capital gains and losses,
consistent with preservation of capital. The Short-Term Portfolio may
have an average Portfolio maturity of up to three hundred sixty (360)
days and may buy instruments with up to five and a quarter (5 1/4) years,
or its duration equivalent, remaining until maturity.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY AND INTRODUCTION
(The information below should be read in conjunction with the detailed
information appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus.)
THE PORTFOLIOS AND THE INVESTMENT COMPANY'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES
The Money Market Portfolio and the Short-Term Portfolio (individually, a
"Portfolio" and, collectively, the "Portfolios") are portfolios of Plan
Investment Fund, Inc., a diversified, open-end management investment company.
Each Portfolio is represented by a class of Participation Certificates
separate from those of the Investment Company's other Portfolio. Unless
otherwise indicated, all statements made in this Prospectus refer to both
Portfolios.
The Money Market Portfolio seeks a high level of current income consistent
with stability of principal by investing in high quality money market
instruments, including U.S. Government, bank and commercial obligations. The
Short-Term Portfolio also invests in high quality U. S. Government, bank and
commercial obligations, but typically with longer maturities, and seeks to
maximize total return, which includes interest income and capital gains and
losses, consistent with preservation of capital.
INVESTORS IN THE PORTFOLIOS
The Investment Company is designed for and permits investment exclusively by
entities within the Blue Cross and Blue Shield system of independent Plans
which include (i) Blue Cross Plans, Blue Shield Plans, and Blue Cross and Blue
Shield Plans (individually, a "Plan" and, collectively, the "Plans"), the Blue
Cross and Blue Shield Association and BCS Financial Corporation, and (ii) CSC.
Also eligible to use the Investment Company are subsidiaries and affiliates of
any of these entities. The above investors may be referred to individually as
a "BCBS Investor" and collectively as "BCBS Investors".
ADVANTAGES OF THE PORTFOLIOS
The Portfolios offer investors professionally managed, convenient, highly
liquid, diversified, high quality investment vehicles designed to ease and
assist liquidity management. Investments in PCs of the Portfolios are
designed to relieve investors of such decisions and administrative tasks
involved in the direct purchase of liquidity investments as scheduling
maturities and reinvestments, safekeeping securities, and surveying the market
for the best price at which to buy or sell. In addition, the Investment
Company offers investors seeking a liquid investment a choice between (i) PCs
of the Money Market Portfolio, which normally will have a constant net asset
value per PC of $1.00 and which will have a dollar-weighted average portfolio
maturity of not more than ninety (90) days, and (ii) PCs of the Short-Term
Portfolio, which will be valued at the market value of its investments and
which will have a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of not more than
three hundred sixty (360) days. Securities whose maturities are measured on
an average life or duration basis are converted to an average maturity for the
purpose of calculating the Short-Term Portfolio dollar-weighted average
maturity. Investors may allocate their investments between the Portfolios at
their discretion and may change such allocations at any time.
PURCHASE AND REDEMPTION OF PCS OF THE MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
Purchase orders for the Money Market Portfolio which are received by 12 Noon
(Eastern Time) will be executed at the net asset value determined at 12 Noon
(Eastern Time) that day if PNC Bank, National Association ("PNC Bank")
receives Federal funds by 4:00 P.M. (Eastern Time). In addition, purchase
orders for the Money Market Portfolio which are received after 12 Noon
(Eastern Time) but before 1:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) from investors in the
Mountain Time Zone, or before 2:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) from investors in the
Pacific Time Zone, will be executed at the net asset value determined at 4:00
P.M. (Eastern Time) that day if PNC Bank receives Federal funds by 4:00 P.M.
(Eastern Time) that day. Orders received after 12 Noon (Eastern Time) from
investors in the Eastern Time Zone or the Central Time Zone, after 1:00 P.M.
(Eastern Time) from investors in the Mountain Time Zone, or after 2:00 P.M.
(Eastern Time) from investors in the Pacific Time Zone, and orders for which
payment has not been received by 4:00 P.M. (Eastern Time), will not be
accepted and notice thereof will be given to the investor placing the order.
Redemption requests will be executed and proceeds will be paid to redeeming PC
holders on the same day of the redemption request if the redemption request is
received before 12 Noon (Eastern Time) from PC holders in the Eastern and
Central Time Zones, before 1:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) from PC holders located in
the Mountain Time Zone, and before 2:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) from PC holders
located in the Pacific Time Zone. Investors in the Money Market Portfolio may
use purchase and redemption procedures to effect inter-Plan transfers. (See
"Purchase and Redemption of Participation Certificates--Transfer Payments".)
PURCHASE AND REDEMPTION OF PCS OF THE SHORT-TERM PORTFOLIO
Purchase orders for the Short-Term Portfolio received before 4:00 P.M.
(Eastern Time) will be priced at the net asset value determined on that day
and will be executed as of the beginning of business on the
-2-
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 7
following Business Day if payment in Federal funds has been received by
4:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) on the day the order is executed. Redemption orders
received before 4:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) will be priced at the net asset value
determined as of 4:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) on that day and will be executed as
of the beginning of business on the following Business Day. Proceeds will be
wired on the day the redemption order is executed.
INVESTMENT ADVISERS AND SERVICE AGENTS

of the Money Market Portfolio and the service agent of both of the Investment
Company's Portfolios. Neuberger & Berman, a New York limited partnership
("N&B"), is the investment adviser of the Short-Term Portfolio. (PIMC and N&B
sometimes are referred to herein collectively as the "Investment Advisers";
PIMC sometimes is referred to herein as the "Service Agent".) (See "Management

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
Both the Money Market Portfolio and the Short-Term Portfolio invest in
diversified selections of liquid, high quality U.S. Government, bank and
commercial debt obligations, as determined by each Portfolio's investment
adviser to meet the Portfolio's respective quality standards as established by
the investment Company's Board of Trustees. However, as described below, the
two (2) Portfolios have different investment objectives and investors may
allocate their investments in the Investment Company between the two (2)
Portfolios as best suits their needs at any given time. The criteria discussed
below serve to explain the term "high quality" used herein and in the Statement
of Additional Information with respect to investments of the Investment
Company.
CRITERIA APPLICABLE TO BOTH PORTFOLIOS
Both Portfolios may:
1. Purchase obligations issued by the U.S. Treasury. The Portfolios may
also purchase obligations issued or guaranteed by agencies or
instrumentalities of the U.S. Government; some of these are backed by the full
faith and credit of the United States, such as the obligations of the
Government National Mortgage Association. Others are backed by the right of
the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury, such as the obligations of the
Federal National Mortgage Association, or are backed by the credit of the
agency or instrumentality issuing the obligation, such as Federal Home Loan
Mortgage Corporation Mortgage Participation Certificates.
2. Purchase bank obligations, such as certificates of deposit, bankers'
acceptances and time deposits issued or supported by the credit of the U.S.
branches of U.S. banks with assets of at least $1 billion, if such obligations
are first determined by the Portfolio's respective investment adviser to meet
the Portfolio's respective maturity limitations and quality standards for
corporate debt obligations.
3. Purchase commercial paper rated (at the time of purchase) at least "A-1"
by Standard & Poor's Corporation ("S&P") or "Prime-1" by Moody's Investors
Service, Inc. ("Moody's").
4. Purchase corporate bonds or notes. The Money Market Portfolio may
purchase corporate bonds or notes rated (at the time of purchase) at least "AA"
by S&P or at least "Aa" by Moody's. The Short-Term Portfolio may purchase
corporate bonds or notes rated (at the time of purchase) at least "A-" by S&P
or at least "A-3" by Moody's.
5. Purchase variable amount master demand notes ("VAMD Notes") issued by
corporations, which are unsecured instruments that permit the indebtedness
thereunder to vary and provide for periodic adjustments in the interest rate.
Although the notes normally are considered illiquid and are not traded, the
Investment Company may demand at any time from the issuers of the VAMD Notes
payment, in less than seven (7) days, of principal and accrued interest. VAMD
Notes typically are not rated by credit rating agencies. If an issuer of VAMD
Notes were to default on its payment obligations, the Investment Company might
be unable to dispose of the illiquid VAMD Notes and might, for this or other
reasons, suffer a loss to the extent of the default.
6. Enter into repurchase agreements ("Repurchase Agreements") pursuant to
which a Portfolio may acquire an investment for a relatively short period
(usually not more than sixty (60) days), subject to an obligation of the seller
to repurchase and the Portfolio to resell the instrument at a fixed price and
time, thereby determining the yield during the Portfolio holding period. This
results in a fixed rate of return during such period. The repurchase price
generally equals the price paid plus interest negotiated on the basis of
current short-term rates (which may be more or less than the rate on the
securities underlying the Repurchase Agreement). Securities subject to
Repurchase Agreements will be held by PNC Bank or in the Federal
Reserve/Treasury book-entry system. Repurchase Agreements are considered to
be loans under the 1940 Act. The Repurchase Agreements are collateralized by
U.S. Government securities the market value of which, on a daily basis,
including accrued interest, if any, is at least equal to one hundred percent
(100%) of the purchase price plus accrued interest under the Repurchase
Agreements. The Investment Company will perfect its security interest in the
collateral securing the Repurchase Agreements in accordance with U.S. Treasury
Regulations and the applicable commercial transaction law of the state in which
such collateral is located. If the seller defaults in its obligation to
repurchase the underlying instrument, which in effect constitutes collateral
for the seller's obligation, at the price and time fixed in the Repurchase
Agreement, the Investment Company might incur a loss if the value of the
collateral declines and might incur disposition costs in connection with
liquidating the collateral. In addition, if bankruptcy proceedings are
commenced with respect to the seller, realization upon the collateral by the
Investment Company may be delayed or limited. Each Portfolio will enter into
Repurchase Agreements only with those banks and dealers determined by the
Portfolio's respective investment adviser to meet the Portfolio's respective
quality standards as established by the Investment Company's Board of Trustees.
The investment advisers will monitor the creditworthiness of the seller during
the life of a Repurchase Agreement.
7. Enter into reverse repurchase agreements ("Reverse Repurchase
Agreements") to provide liquidity to meet redemption requests when the sale of
portfolio securities is considered to be disadvantageous. Reverse Repurchase
Agreements involve the sale of investments held by the Investment Company with
an agreement to
-6-
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 11
repurchase the securities at a fixed date and price. Under the 1940 Act,
Reverse Repurchase Agreements, the proceeds of which are utilized to provide
liquidity to meet redemption requests, are considered as borrowings. Proceeds
of Reverse Repurchase Agreements utilized to provide liquidity to meet
redemption requests may equal no more than five percent (5%) of the total
assets of the respective Portfolio. The use of Reverse Repurchase Agreements
is not expected to affect the net asset value of the Money Market Portfolio.
Neither Portfolio will purchase any unrated instrument unless the Portfolio's
respective investment adviser has determined the instrument to be of comparable
quality to rated instruments which the respective Portfolio may buy. The
rating symbols used by S&P and Moody's which are referred to above are
described in the Appendix to the Statement of Additional Information.
The Investment Company will (i) seek to make investments in instruments
authorized by the New York State Insurance Department to the extent such
investments also comply with the Investment Company's Investment Guidelines and
the 1940 Act; (ii) seek to make investments which will be permitted investments
under the requirements of other applicable state insurance laws and
regulations, although each investor should determine for itself the suitability
with respect to such state insurance laws and regulations, of investing with
the Investment Company; and (iii) maintain a high degree of portfolio liquidity
at all times. Each investor in the Investment Company will have the right to
receive redemption proceeds from the Investment Company within one (1) Business
Day of the Investment Company's receipt of a proper redemption request order,
as the case may be. If an investor ceases to be a BCBS Investor, its PCs in
the Investment Company will be redeemed involuntarily.
THE MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
The Money Market Portfolio seeks a high level of current income consistent
with stability of principal by investing in high quality money market
instruments having remaining maturities of one (1) year or less, except that
items of collateral securing Portfolio securities which are subject to
Repurchase Agreements may bear maturities exceeding one (1) year. The
dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of the Money Market Portfolio will
not exceed ninety (90) days. In pursuing its investment objective, the Money
Market Portfolio invests in a broad range of government, bank and commercial
obligations that may be available in the money markets. In addition to the
specific quality and other investment criteria set forth above, the Money
Market Portfolio will purchase only those instruments judged by PIMC to involve
minimal credit risk and which either have a high quality rating from a
nationally recognized rating agency or, if unrated, to be of comparable
quality as determined by PIMC. The Money Market Portfolio attempts to maintain
a constant net asset value per PC of $1.00. There is no assurance, however,
that such constant net asset value will be maintained. Money Market Portfolio
PCs are neither insured nor guaranteed by the U.S. Government.
THE SHORT-TERM PORTFOLIO
The Short-Term Portfolio seeks to maximize total return, which includes
interest income and capital gains and losses, consistent with the preservation
of capital by managing a portfolio of U.S. Government, bank and commercial
instruments having remaining maturities of five and a quarter (5 1/4) years or
less, except that items of collateral securing portfolio securities which are
subject to Repurchase Agreements may bear maturities exceeding five and a
quarter (5 1/4) years. As a matter of fundamental policy the dollar-weighted
average portfolio maturity of the Short-Term Portfolio will not exceed three
hundred sixty (360) days. The net asset value per PC in the Short-Term
Portfolio will be subject to some fluctuation. There is no assurance that the
goals of the Short-Term Portfolio will be achieved.
In the ordinary course of business, the Short-Term Portfolio may purchase
securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis (i.e., delivery and
payment will take place after the date of the transaction). As such, the
securities are subject to market fluctuations and no interest accrues to the
purchaser during this period. When-issued securities are recorded as an asset
and are subject to market fluctuations. In addition, the Portfolio will
segregate an amount of cash or securities at the time of commitment equal to
or exceeding the purchase price of the securities. The Short-Term Portfolio
will not purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis if, as
a result, more than fifteen percent (15%) of the total assets of the Portfolio
would be so invested.
INVESTMENT AND BORROWING LIMITATIONS
Neither Portfolio of the Investment Company may change the investment or
borrowing limitations summarized below without the affirmative vote of the
holders of a majority of the outstanding PCs of the respective Portfolio. (A
more detailed description of the following investment limitations, together
with other investment limitations that cannot be changed without a vote of the
holders of a majority of the outstanding PCs of the respective Portfolio, is
contained in the Statement of Additional Information under "Investment
Objectives and Policies".) Neither Portfolio may:
1. Borrow money, except from commercial banks for temporary purposes, and
then in amounts not in excess of five percent (5%) of the total assets of the
respective Portfolio at the time of such borrowing; or pledge any assets except
in connection with any such borrowing and in amounts not in excess of the
lesser of the dollar amounts borrowed or five percent (5%) of the total assets
of the respective Portfolio at the time of such borrowing. This limitation
applies to proceeds of Reverse Repurchase Agreements to the extent such
-7-
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 12
proceeds are utilized to provide liquidity to meet redemption requests.
2. Purchase any securities which would cause twenty-five percent (25%) or
more of the total assets of the respective Portfolio at the time of purchase
to be invested in the securities of issuers conducting their principal business
activities in the same general industry, provided that there is no limitation
for either Portfolio with respect to investments in U.S. Government obligations
or in obligations of domestic branches of U.S. banks for the Money Market
Portfolio.
3. Purchase securities of any one (1) issuer, other than those of, or those
guaranteed by, the U.S. Government, Federal agencies and government-sponsored
corporations, if immediately after such purchase more than five percent (5%)
of the total assets of the respective Portfolio would be invested in such
issuer; except that up to twenty-five percent (25%) of the total assets of the
respective Portfolio may be invested in Repurchase Agreements with maturities
not greater than seven (7) days without regard to this five percent (5%)
limitation.
4. Purchase securities, if immediately after such purchase more than ten
percent (10%) of the total assets of the respective Portfolio would be invested
in securities which are illiquid, including Repurchase Agreements with
maturities greater than seven (7) days and VAMD Notes with greater than seven
(7) days' notice required for sale. Restricted securities issued under Rule
144A and commercial paper issued under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of
1933 are not subject to this limitation if they are determined by the
Portfolio's adviser to be liquid under guidelines established by the Board of
Trustees.
5. Purchase securities issued by CSC.
PURCHASE AND REDEMPTION OF PARTICIPATION CERTIFICATES
PURCHASE PROCEDURES
PCs of each Portfolio are sold without a sales charge by the Investment
Company acting as its own distributor without the services of an underwriter
at the net asset value per PC next determined after receipt of a purchase order
by PFPC. BCBS Investors may open an account with the Investment Company by
completing, and submitting to CSC, an application form which may be obtained
by telephoning (312) 440-6372; the form requests all information from the
investor required to enable PFPC to open an account for such investor. After
the application form has been approved by CSC and forwarded to PFPC, an
investor may place purchase orders for PCs on any Business Day directly with
PFPC, the transfer agent for the Investment Company; such orders must be
transmitted by telephoning (800) 821-9771 and indicating the amount and the
Portfolio of the PCs desired. (See "Net Asset Value--Money Market Portfolio"
for the definition of "Business Day".)
MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO. Purchase orders for the Money Market Portfolio which
are received by 12 Noon (Eastern Time) will be executed at the net asset value
determined at 12 Noon (Eastern Time) that day if PNC Bank receives Federal
funds by 4:00 P.M. Eastern Time. In addition, purchase orders for the Money
Market Portfolio which are received after 12 Noon (Eastern Time) but before
1:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) from investors in the Mountain Time Zone, and before
2:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) from investors in the Pacific Time Zone, will be
executed at the net asset value determined at 4:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) that day
if PNC Bank receives Federal funds by 4:00 P.M. (Eastern Time). Orders
received after 12 Noon (Eastern Time) from investors in the Eastern Time Zone
or the Central Time Zone, after 1:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) from investors in the
Mountain Time Zone, or after 2:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) from investors in the
Pacific Time Zone, and orders for which payment has not been received by PNC
Bank by 4:00 P.M. (Eastern Time), will not be accepted and notice thereof will
be given to the investor placing the order.
SHORT-TERM PORTFOLIO. Purchase orders for the Short-Term Portfolio received
before 4:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) will be priced at the net asset value
determined on that day and will be executed as of the beginning of business on
the following Business Day if payment has been received by PNC Bank by 4:00
P.M. (Eastern Time) on the day the order is executed. Orders received at other
times, and orders for which payment has not been received by PNC Bank by 4:00
P.M. (Eastern Time) on the day the order is to be executed, will not be
accepted and notice thereof will be given to the investor placing the order.
Payment for PCs of either Portfolio may be made only in Federal funds or
other funds immediately available to PNC Bank. There is no minimum initial or
subsequent investment. Payment for orders which are not received or accepted
by PFPC will be returned after prompt inquiry to the sending investor. Each
Portfolio may in its discretion reject any orders for purchase of PCs. Unless
specifically designated as to Money Market Portfolio or Short-Term Portfolio,
all purchases automatically will be made in the Money Market Portfolio. CSC
will be responsible for the payment of any distribution expenses.
REDEMPTION PROCEDURES
Redemption orders must be transmitted to PFPC by telephone in the manner
described under "Purchase Procedures". PCs are redeemed at the net asset value
per PC next determined after receipt of the redemption order. Investors should
note the differences between the Portfolios in terms of when net asset values
of the PCs are determined and when dividends are earned.
-8-
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 13
MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO. Payment for redeemed PCs for which a redemption
order is received by PFPC on a Business Day before 12 Noon (Eastern Time) from
PC holders located in the Eastern and Central Time Zones, before 1:00 P.M.
(Eastern Time) from PC holders located in the Mountain Time Zone, and before
2:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) from PC holders located in the Pacific Time Zone is
made in Federal funds wired to the redeeming investor's account on the same
Business Day. Payment for other redemption orders which are received on a
Business Day (or on a day when PNC Bank is closed) is wired in Federal funds
on the next Business Day following redemption that PNC Bank is open for
business. An investor receives no dividend for the day on which PCs are
redeemed; therefore, investors that do not place redemption orders by the
times indicated may wish to wait until the morning of the following Business
Day to do so.
SHORT-TERM PORTFOLIO. A redemption request with respect to the Short-Term
Portfolio which is received by PFPC prior to 4:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) on a
Business Day will be priced at the net asset value determined as of 4:00 P.M.
(Eastern Time) on that day and will be executed on the following Business Day.
Proceeds will be wired on the day the redemption order is executed. Investors
receive dividends through, and including, the day before the redemption order
is executed.
FURTHER INFORMATION REGARDING BOTH PORTFOLIOS. Investors may in effect
transfer all or part of their investments from one Portfolio to another by
placing simultaneous redemption and purchase orders. These orders will be
executed in sequence in accordance with the procedures discussed above.
The Investment Company will not issue certificates representing PCs unless
requested to do so by its investors. If such certificates have been issued
representing PCs to be redeemed, prior to effecting a redemption with respect
to such PCs, PFPC must have received such certificates properly endorsed (i.e.,
duly executed with signatures guaranteed by a commercial bank, a trust company
or a member firm of a domestic securities exchange). PFPC reserves the right
to request additional documentation in order to confirm that a transaction is
properly authorized. PC holders having questions regarding proper
documentation or desiring to request certificates representing PCs should
contact PFPC.
The Investment Company may suspend the right of redemption or postpone the
date of payment upon redemption (as well as suspend or postpone the recordation
of the transfer of its PCs) for such periods as are permitted under the 1940
Act. The Investment Company may also redeem PCs involuntarily under certain
special circumstances described in the Statement of Additional Information
under "Additional Purchase and Redemption Information". In addition, CSC will
cause PCs (i) owned by an investor who ceases to be a BCBS Investor or (ii)
pledged as collateral by an investor and subsequently called by a pledgee who
is not a BCBS Investor, to be redeemed involuntarily and automatically within
one (1) Business Day of the occurrence of the events set forth in (i) or (ii)
immediately preceding.
TRANSFER PAYMENTS
A BCBS Investor investing in the Money Market Portfolio may direct that
payment upon redemption of PCs in the Money Market Portfolio be used to
purchase PCs of the Money Market Portfolio for another BCBS Investor by a
transfer (individually, a "Transfer" and, collectively, "Transfers") of the
redeemed PCs to the second BCBS Investor. Such a Transfer is made by a
redemption and simultaneous purchase in the name of the second BCBS Investor.
A BCBS Investor may not request a Transfer from his Money Market Portfolio
account in a dollar amount greater than the dollar amount held in such
investor's account on the Business Day prior to the date of such request. Such
Transfers may be effected at any time prior to 4:00 P.M (Eastern Time). There
is no limit to the number of Transfers which a BCBS Investor can place in any
one (1) day, nor to the total number of such Transfers by all BCBS Investors
per day.
PAYMENT IN KIND
Investors may request that redemption order proceeds be funded by securities
held by the Portfolio (a "Payment in Kind") in lieu of cash. Prior to placing
a payment in kind redemption order a BCBS investor must provide the Transfer
agent with written instructions identifying the custodial account to receive
the securities to be distributed. The securities to be distributed shall
represent a pro rata share of each security held in the portfolio, in
accordance with Rule 17a-5 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Under
guidelines established by the Board of Trustees, the adviser shall have the
authority to make adjustments to the mix of securities to establish round lots
that are more easily traded; however, these adjustments may not materially
change the maturity, quality and liquidity characteristics of the remaining
portfolio.
NET ASSET VALUE
MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
The net asset value per PC of the Money Market Portfolio for purposes of
pricing purchase and redemption orders is determined by PIMC as of 12 Noon
(Eastern Time) and as of 4:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) on any Business Day (other
than a day on which there are no purchase or redemption orders) during which
there is sufficient trading in instruments held by such Portfolio that its net
asset value per PC might be affected materially. A Business Day of the
Investment Company is any weekday other than the holidays observed by the
Investment Company, which currently are: New Year's Day, Martin Luther King's
Day, President's Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day,
Columbus Day, Veterans' Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day.
-9-
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 14
In computing net asset value per PC, the Money Market Portfolio uses the
amortized cost method of valuation and normally maintains a constant net asset
value of $1.00 per PC.
SHORT-TERM PORTFOLIO
The net asset value per PC of the Short-Term Portfolio for purposes of
pricing purchase and redemption orders is determined by PIMC as of 4:00 P.M.
(Eastern Time) on any Business Day (other than a day on which there are no
purchase or redemption orders) during which there is sufficient trading in
investments held by such Portfolio that its net asset value per PC might be
affected materially. The Short-Term Portfolio values assets based on their
market price or on their fair value as determined by the Investment Company's
Board of Trustees. (See the Statement of Additional Information under "Net
Asset Value" for a more complete description with respect to both Portfolios.)

INVESTMENT ADVISERS AND SERVICE AGENT
PIMC is the investment adviser of the Money Market Portfolio and the Service
Agent of both of the Investment Company's Portfolios. N&B is the investment
adviser of the Short-Term Portfolio. (PIMC and N&B sometimes are referred to
herein collectively as the "Investment Advisers"; PIMC sometimes is referred
to herein as the "Service Agent".)
PIMC, a wholly owned subsidiary of PNC Bank, was organized in 1977 by PNC
Bank to perform advisory services for investment companies, and has its
principal offices at 103 Bellevue Parkway, Wilmington, Delaware 19809. PIMC
currently renders advisory and sub-advisory services to investment companies
having assets of approximately $26 billion. PNC Bank and its predecessors have

PFPC, an indirectly wholly owned subsidiary of PNC, P.0. Box 8950,
Wilmington, Delaware 19899, has been retained to act as transfer agent for the
Investment Company. As transfer agent, PFPC, among other things, issues and
redeems PCs, processes dividends, prepares various communications to PC
holders, answers correspondence from PC holders, keeps records of the accounts
of each PC holder and prepares and submits various reports to the Investment
Company. For the services provided and expenses assumed by PFPC as transfer
agent, PFPC is entitled to receive a fee, computed daily and payable monthly,
equal to $15.00 per master account and sub-account per Portfolio per year,
prorated in the case of accounts maintained for only a portion of a full year,
plus $1.00 for each master account purchase or redemption transaction, plus
$5.00 for each outgoing wire of Federal funds, provided that the minimum annual
fee payable to PFPC shall be $5,000.
Banking laws and regulations presently prohibit a bank holding company
registered under the Federal Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 or any bank or
non-bank affiliate thereof from sponsoring, organizing, controlling, or
distributing the shares (PCs) of a registered, open-end investment company
continuously engaged in the issuance of its shares (PCs), and prohibit banks
generally from issuing, underwriting, selling or distributing securities, but
such banking laws and regulations do not prohibit such a holding company or
affiliate or banks generally from acting as investment adviser, transfer agent
or custodian to such an investment company. PNC Bank, PIMC and PFPC are
subject to such banking laws and regulations.
Ballard, Spahr, Andrews & Ingersoll, counsel to PIMC, PNC Bank and
PFPC, have advised the Investment Company, PIMC, PNC Bank and PFPC that PIMC,
PNC Bank and PFPC may perform the services for the Investment Company
contemplated by their agreements with the Investment Company, this prospectus
and the Statement of Additional Information, without violation of applicable
banking laws or regulations. Such counsel have pointed out, however, that
future changes relating to the permissible activities of banks and their
affiliates, as well as further interpretations of present requirements, could
prevent PIMC, PNC Bank or PFPC from continuing to perform such services for the
Investment Company. If PIMC, PNC Bank or PFPC were prohibited from continuing
to perform such services, it is expected that the Investment Company's Board
of Trustees would recommend that the Investment Company enter into new
agreements with other qualified firms. Any new investment advisory agreement
would be subject to PC holder approval.
ADMINISTRATOR
CSC, located at 676 St. Clair Street, Chicago, Illinois 60611, serves as the
Investment Company's administrator and acts generally in a supervisory capacity
with respect to the Investment Company's overall operations and PC holder
relations. CSC's administrative services include maintaining the Investment
Company's Chicago, Illinois office; maintaining financial and accounting
records other than those maintained by the Investment Advisers or their agents;
supervising the performance of administrative and professional services to the
Investment Company by others; monitoring, and notifying the Investment Company
of, the eligibility of the Investment Company's present and prospective
investors and certain requirements of various state insurance laws and
regulations; receiving and processing applications from present and prospective
investors in the Investment Company; and accumulating information for and
coordinating (but not paying for) the preparation of reports to the Investment
Company's PC holders and the SEC.
For its administrative services, CSC is entitled to receive a fee from the
Investment Company calculated daily and paid monthly at an annual rate not to
exceed one-twentieth of one percent (.05%) of the average daily net assets of
the Investment Company's Portfolios. (See the Statement of Additional
Information under "Management of the Investment Company--Administrator".)
EXPENSES
The Investment Company's ordinary operating expenses generally consist of
fees for legal, accounting and other professional services, fees of
PIMC, N&B, PNC Bank, PFPC and CSC, costs of Federal and state registrations
and related distributions to PC holders, certain insurance premiums as well as
the costs associated with maintaining corporate existence. Other costs include
taxes, brokerage fees, interest and extraordinary expenses. For the year
ending December 31, 1994 the expense ratio for the Money Market Portfolio was
0.26% and for the Short-Term Portfolio was 0.30%. Without the waiver of
advisory fees, the
-12-
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 17
ratio of expenses to average daily net assets would have been 0.37% for the
Short-Term Portfolio for the year ending December 31, 1994 .
DIVIDENDS
Investors in either Portfolio are entitled to dividends and distributions
arising only from the net income and capital gains, if any, earned on
investments held by that Portfolio. Each Portfolio declares net income daily
as a dividend to PC holders of record at the close of business on the date of
declaration. Dividends are paid monthly and will be reinvested in additional
PCs or, if the investor so elects by checking the appropriate box on the
application form, will be transmitted to such investor by wire within five (5)
Business Days after the end of the month (or within five (5) Business Days
after a redemption of all of the investor's PCs). Distributions of realized
net capital gains of the Short-Term Portfolio, if any, are declared and paid
once each year and may be reinvested in additional PCs or, at the option of the
investor, paid in cash. The Money Market Portfolio does not expect to realize
net long-term capital gains.
TAXES
Under applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"), as
amended, each particular Portfolio established within the Investment Company
is to be treated for tax purposes as an entirely separate corporation.
Therefore, each particular Portfolio intends to elect to be taxed as a
"regulated investment company" ("RIC"), within the meaning of Subchapter M of
the Code and each Particular Portfolio intends to continue to satisfy the
requirements for RIC classification for the current fiscal year and for each
future fiscal year, so long as such qualification is considered to be in the
best interest of the PC holders of that Portfolio. As a RIC, the Portfolio
will not have to pay any Federal income tax on net investment income and net
capital gains distributed to its PC holders, provided that, among other things,
at least ninety percent (90%) of its investment company taxable income earned
during each fiscal year (computed without regard to any deduction for dividends
paid) is so distributed. The policy of each particular Portfolio established
within the Investment Company will be to distribute substantially all its
investment company taxable income each year.
Insofar as PC holders of any particular Portfolio may themselves be subject
to Federal income tax, dividends paid by the particular Portfolio in question
from its net investment income and distribution of net short-term capital gains
will be taxable to PC holders of the particular Portfolio in question as
ordinary income, and dividends derived from net long-term capital gains will
be taxable to PC holders of the particular Portfolio in question as long-term
capital gains, whether received in cash or reinvested in additional PCs of that
Portfolio or of PCs of any other Portfolio. PC holders of any particular
Portfolio which are exempt from taxation will treat such income similarly to
their other income items. Statements as to the tax status of dividends and
capital gain distributions made to the PC holders of each Portfolio will be
mailed annually. It is anticipated that none of the Portfolios' distributions
will be eligible for the dividends-received deduction.
Under the provisions of the Code, RICs such as each Portfolio established
within the Investment Company may be subject to a four percent (4%)
nondeductible Federal excise tax, if and to the extent that the RIC fails to
distribute to its shareholders a sufficient amount of its annual income. In
general, the required distribution amount is the sum of (i) ninety-eight
percent (98%) of the RIC's ordinary income, and (ii) ninety-eight percent (98%)
of the RIC's net capital gain income. The required distribution also includes
the cumulative amount of distribution shortfalls from the tax years during
which the four percent (4%) Federal excise tax is applicable. It is
anticipated that each Portfolio shall be operated in a manner calculated to
avoid the imposition, against the particular Portfolio in question, of this
four percent (4%) Federal excise tax.
Under the provisions of Code Section 514, a PC holder which is otherwise
exempt from Federal income tax may subject certain of its income to Federal
income tax, to the extent that the PC holder borrows funds and uses the
borrowed funds, directly or indirectly, to acquire PCs of any particular
Portfolio. The amount of income of the PC holder which would be subject to
Federal income tax would be, in general, the net income (gross income less
applicable deductions) derived by the PC holder from the investment, multiplied
by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount borrowed, and the
denominator of which is the amount invested by the PC holder in the particular
Portfolio in question. Certain expenses of the Investment Company will be
passed through to its PC holders. Such amounts may or may not be deductible
by the PC holders.
Dividends and distributions from any of the Portfolios may be subject to
additional state and local taxes and PC holders should consult their tax
advisers with respect to such matters. No attempt is made here or in the
Statement of Additional Information to present a detailed explanation of the
tax treatment of any particular Portfolio established within the Investment
Company or of its PC holders. Any discussion here or in the Statement of
Additional Information is not intended as a substitute for careful tax
planning.

DESCRIPTION OF PARTICIPATION CERTIFICATES
The Investment Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of
Maryland on August 6, 1985.
The authorized capital stock of the Investment Company consists of five
billion (5,000,000,000) PCs, par value $.001 per PC. The Investment Company
presently offers investors two (2) classes of PCs as follows: (i) the Money
Market Portfolio -- two billion (2,000,000,000) PCs and (ii) the Short-Term
Portfolio -- one billion (1,000,000,000) PCs. The PCs of each class represent
interests only in the corresponding Portfolio. When issued and paid for in
accordance with the terms of the offering, each PC is fully paid and
nonassessable. All PCs of the same class have equal dividend, distribution,
liquidation and voting rights and are redeemable at net asset value at the
option of the PC holder. In addition, the PCs have no preemptive,
subscription, conversion or cumulative voting rights. PC holders are entitled
to one (1) vote for each full PC held and fractional votes for fractional PCs
held.
PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
From time to time, the Investment Company may quote the yield of each of its
Portfolios in reports and other communications to PC holders. For this
purpose, the yield of the Money Market Portfolio is calculated by dividing the
Portfolio's average daily net investment income per PC for a specified seven
(7) day period by the Portfolio's average net asset value per PC for the same
period and annualizing the result on a three hundred sixty-five-day basis. In
the case of the Short-Term Portfolio, quoted yield is calculated by dividing
the net investment income per PC during a thirty (30) day (or one month) period
by the price per PC on the last day of that period. The result of this
calculation is annualized assuming semi-annual reinvestment of dividend income.
From time to time, the Investment Company may also quote the total return of
its Short-Term Portfolio in reports and other communications to PC holders.
For this purpose the total return of the Portfolio is an average annual
compound rate of return over the periods cited that will equate a hypothetical
$1,000 investment made at the beginning of the periods to the redeemable value
at the end of the periods cited.
Each Portfolio's performance will fluctuate. All statements of yield and
total return are based on historical performance and are not intended to
indicate future performance. Portfolio performance is affected by factors that
include Portfolio quality and maturity, operating expenses, changes in interest
rates and general market conditions. (See the Statement of Additional
Information under "Performance Information" for a more complete description of
yield and total return calculations.)
GENERAL INFORMATION
The Investment Company sends to all of its PC holders of each Portfolio
quarterly reports and annual reports, including a list of investment securities
held by each Portfolio, and audited financial statements of each
Portfolio.
Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P. has been selected as the Investment Company's
independent accountants.
Seyfarth, Shaw, Fairweather & Geraldson, 55 East Monroe Street, Chicago,
Illinois 60603, will pass upon the legality of the PCs offered hereby.
Burton X. Rosenberg, a Partner of Seyfarth, Shaw, Fairweather & Geraldson, acts
as General Counsel and Secretary to CSC and is also a member of its Board of
Directors.

This Statement of Additional Information should be read in conjunction
with the Prospectus for Plan Investment Fund, Inc. dated March 29, 1995
and is incorporated by reference in its entirety into that Prospectus.
Because this Statement of Additional Information is not itself a
prospectus, no investment in PCs of Plan Investment Fund, Inc. should be
made solely upon the information contained herein. Copies of the
Prospectus for Plan Investment Fund, Inc. may be obtained by calling Health
Plans Capital Services Corp. at (312) 440-6372. Capitalized terms used but

THE INVESTMENT COMPANY
The Money Market Portfolio and the Short-Term Portfolio (individually, a
"Portfolio" and, collectively, the "Portfolios") are portfolios of Plan
Investment Fund, Inc. (the "Investment Company"), a diversified, open-end
management investment company. Each Portfolio is represented by a class of
PCs separate from those of the Investment Company's other Portfolio.
Unless otherwise indicated, all statements made in this Statement of
Additional Information refer to both Portfolios.
Both the Money Market Portfolio and the Short-Term Portfolio invest in
diversified selections of liquid, high-quality U.S. Government, bank and
commercial obligations. However, as described in the Prospectus, the two
(2) Portfolios have different investment objectives and policies and
investors may allocate their investment in the Investment Company between
the two (2) Portfolios as best suits their needs at any given time.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
See the Prospectus for a description of the investment objectives and
policies of the Investment Company. The following policy discussion
supplements such description.
Portfolio Transactions
----------------------
Purchases and sales of securities for each Portfolio usually are
principal transactions. Portfolio securities normally are purchased
directly from the issuer or from an underwriter or market maker of the
securities. There usually are no brokerage commissions paid by the
Investment Company for such purchases. Purchases from dealers serving as
market makers may include the spread between the bid and asked prices.
While the Investment Advisers intend to seek the best price and execution
for portfolio transactions on an overall basis, the Investment Company may
not necessarily pay the lowest spread or commission available on each
transaction.
Allocation of transactions, including their frequency, to various
dealers is determined by the Investment Adviser of each Portfolio in its
best judgment under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees of the
Investment Company and in a manner deemed fair and reasonable to PC
holders.
Investment decisions for each Portfolio of the Investment Company are
made independently from those for the other investment companies advised by
the Investment Adviser. It may happen, on occasion, that the same security
is held in one or more of such other investment companies. Simultaneous
transactions are likely when several investment companies are advised by
the same investment adviser, particularly when a security is suitable for
the investment objectives of more than one (1) of such investment
companies. When two (2) or more investment companies advised by the
Investment Adviser are simultaneously engaged in the purchase or sale of
the same security, the transactions are allocated to the respective
investment companies, both as to amount and price, in accordance with a
B-2
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 22
method deemed equitable to each investment company. In some cases this
system may adversely affect the price paid or received by a Portfolio of
the Investment Company or the size of the security position obtainable or
sold for such Portfolio.
The Investment Company will not execute portfolio transactions through,
acquire portfolio securities issued by, make savings deposits in, or enter
into Repurchase Agreements or Reverse Repurchase Agreements with, PIMC and
N&B (the Investment Advisers) or any affiliates, officers or employees of
either of them.
Additional Information on Portfolio Instruments
-----------------------------------------------
With respect to the variable amount master demand notes ("VAMD Notes")
described in the Prospectus, the Investment Advisers to the respective
Portfolios will consider the earning power, cash flows and other liquidity
ratios of the issuers of such notes and will continuously monitor their
financial status to meet payment on demand. In determining average
weighted portfolio maturity, VAMD Notes will be deemed to have a maturity
equal to the longer of the period remaining to the next interest rate
adjustment or the demand notice period.
Examples of the types of U.S. Government obligations that may be held by
the Investment Company include, in addition to U.S. Treasury bills, notes
and bonds, the obligations of Federal Home Loan Banks, Federal Farm Credit
Banks, Federal Land Banks, the Federal Housing Administration, Farmers Home
Administration, Export-Import Bank of the United States, Small Business
Administration, Government National Mortgage Association, General Services
Administration, Student Loan Marketing Association, Central Bank for
Cooperatives, Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, Federal Intermediate
Credit Banks, Maritime Administration and International Bank for
Reconstruction and Development.
The Investment Company may also invest in collateralized mortgage
obligations ("CMO"s) which are obligations fully collateralized by a
portfolio of mortgages or mortgage-related securities. Payments of
principal and interest on the mortgages are passed through to the holders
of the CMOs on the same schedule as they are received, although certain
classes of CMOs have priority over others with respect to the receipt of
prepayments on the mortgages. Therefore, depending on the types of CMOs in
which the Investment Company invests, the investment may be subject to a
greater or lesser risk of prepayment than other types of mortgage-related
securities. The Investment Company may also invest in other asset-backed
securities that represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable
from, a stream of payments generated by particular assets, most often a
pool or pools of similar assets (e.g., trade receivables). The credit
quality of these securities depends primarily upon the quality of the
underlying assets and the level of credit support and/or enhancement
provided. The underlying assets are subject to prepayments which shorten
the securities' weighted average life and may lower their return. If the
credit support or enhancement is exhausted, losses or delays in payment may
result if the required payments of principal and interest are not made.
The maturity of the instruments in which the Investment Company invests
B-3
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 23
normally shall be deemed to be a period remaining until the date noted on
the face of the instrument is the date on which the principal amount must
be paid, or in the case of an instrument called for redemption, the date on
which the redemption payment must be made. An instrument issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. Government or any agency thereof which has a
variable rate of interest readjusted no less frequently than annually may
be deemed to have a maturity equal to the period remaining until the next
readjustment date. An instrument which has a demand feature that entitles
the holder to receive the principal amount of such instrument from the
issuer upon no more than seven (7) days' notice and which has a variable
rate of interest may be deemed to have a maturity equal to the longer of
the period remaining until the interest rate will be readjusted or the
period remaining until the principal amount owed can be received through
demand. An instrument which has a variable rate of interest may be deemed
to have a maturity equal to the period remaining until the next
readjustment of the interest rate. An instrument which has a demand
feature that entitles the holder to receive the principal amount of such
instrument from the issuer upon no more than seven (7) days' notice and
which has a floating rate of interest may be deemed to have a maturity
equal to the period of time remaining until the principal amount owed can
be received from the issuer through demand.
An investment owned by the Short-Term Portfolio which may have payments
of principal prior to its final maturity date may be deemed to have a
maturity equal to the average maturity of its principal balances. This
average, called an average life, may include both scheduled payments of
principal and estimates of the timing of principal payments. The
Short-Term Portfolio may use an instrument's duration, the dollar weighted
present value of all future cash flows, as a measure of final maturity. An
instrument with a duration equivalent to that of an instrument with five
and a quarter (5 1/4) years remaining until maturity may be deemed to
comply with the five and a quarter (5 1/4) year maximum maturity investment
limitation.
The portfolio turnover for the Short-Term Portfolio may be expected to
exceed one hundred percent (100%) per year. Because the Short-Term
Portfolio invests in securities with short maturities, there is a
relatively high portfolio turnover rate. However, the turnover rate does
not have an adverse effect upon the net yield and net asset value of the
PCs of the Short-Term Portfolio since transactions occur primarily with
issuers, underwriters or major dealers and usually do not include the
expense of brokerage commissions.
Appendix A attached hereto contains a description of the relevant rating
symbols used by Standard & Poor's Corporation and Moody's Investors
Service, Inc. for bonds and commercial paper in which the Portfolios
invest.
Investment and Borrowing Limitations
------------------------------------
The Investment Company's Prospectus summarized certain of the
Portfolios' investment and borrowing limitations that may not be changed
without the affirmative vote of the holders of a "majority" of the
outstanding PCs of the respective Portfolios (as defined herein under
B-4
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 24
"Miscellaneous"). Below is a complete list of the Portfolios' investment
limitations that may not be changed without such a vote of PC holders.
Neither Portfolio may:
1. Borrow money,except from commercial banks for temporary
purposes, and then in amounts not in excess of five percent (5%) of the
total assets of the respective Portfolio 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
amount borrowed or five percent (5%) of the total assets of the respective
Portfolio at the time of such borrowing. This borrowing provision applies
to Reverse Repurchase Agreements whose proceeds are utilized to provide
liquidity to meet redemption requests when liquidation of portfolio
securities is considered disadvantageous. At no time shall the level of
funds borrowed to meet redemption requests exceed five percent (5%) of the
total assets of the respective Portfolio; the interest expenses associated
with such credit arrangements will be charged to the income of the
respective Portfolio; and any new cash flows must be applied to retiring
such Portfolio borrowings.
2. Purchase any securities which would cause twenty-five percent
(25%) or more of the total assets of the respective Portfolio at the time
of such purchase to be invested in the securities of issuers conducting
their principal business activities in the same general industry. There is
no limitation for either Portfolio with respect to investments in U.S.
Government obligations or for the Money Market Portfolio in obligations of
domestic branches of U.S. banks.
3. Purchase securities of any issuer, other than those issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. Government, Federal agencies and
government-sponsored corporations, if immediately after such purchase more
than five percent (5%) of the total assets of the respective Portfolio
would be invested in such issuer; except that up to twenty-five percent
(25%) of the total assets of the respective Portfolio may be invested in
Repurchase Agreements with maturities not greater than seven (7) days
without regard to this five percent (5%) limitation.
4. Purchase securities, if immediately after such purchase more
than ten percent (10%) of the total assets of the respective Portfolio
would be invested in securities which are illiquid, including Repurchase
Agreements with maturities greater than seven (7) days and VAMD Notes with
greater than seven (7) days' notice required for sale.
5. Make loans, except that each Portfolio may purchase or hold debt
instruments, and may enter into Repurchase Agreements, in accordance with
its investment objectives and policies.
6. Purchase securities issued by CSC.
7. Purchase or sell commodities or commodity contracts, including
futures contracts, or invest in oil, gas or mineral exploration or
development programs.
B-5
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 25
8. Acquire voting securities of any issuer or acquire securities of
other investment companies.
9. Purchase or sell real estate. (However, each Portfolio may
purchase bonds and commercial paper issued by companies which invest in
real estate or interest therein.)
10. Purchase securities on margin, make short sales of securities or
maintain a short position.
11. Act as an underwriter of securities.
12. Issue senior securities, except to the extent that certain
investment policies related to Reverse Repurchase Agreements discussed
herein and in the Prospectus may be deemed to involve the issuance of
senior securities within the meaning of the 1940 Act.
ADDITIONAL PURCHASE AND REDEMPTION INFORMATION
Under the 1940 Act, the Investment Company may suspend the right of
redemption or postpone the date of payment upon redemption (i) for any
period during which the New York Stock Exchange is closed, other than
customary weekend and holiday closings, or during which trading on said
Exchange is restricted, or (ii) for any period during which (as determined
by the SEC by rule or regulation) an emergency exists as a result of which
disposal or valuation of portfolio securities is not reasonably practical,
or for such other periods as the SEC, or any successor governmental
authority, may by order permit for the protection of PC holders of the
Portfolios. (The Investment Company may also suspend or postpone the
recordation of the transfer of its PCs upon the occurrence of any of the
foregoing conditions.)
If the Board of Trustees determines that conditions exist which make
payment of redemption proceeds wholly in cash unwise or undesirable, the
Investment Company may make payment wholly or partly in securities or other
property; investors will incur expenses in disposing of redemption proceeds
which are paid in this manner. The Investment Company has elected to
commit itself to pay all redemption proceeds in cash up to the lesser of
$250,000 or one percent (1.0%) of the respective Portfolio's net asset
value for any Participation Certificate holder within a ninety (90) day
period pursuant to a notification of election filed with the SEC under, and
in accordance with the guidelines set forth in, Rule 18f-1 under the 1940
Act. (See "Net Asset Value" below for an example of when such redemption
or form of payment might be appropriate.)
NET ASSET VALUE
The net asset value per PC of each Portfolio is calculated by dividing
the total value of the assets belonging to each Portfolio, less the value
of any liabilities charged to each Portfolio, by the total number of PCs of
the Portfolio outstanding.
B-6
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 26
Money Market Portfolio
----------------------
As stated in the Investment Company's Prospectus, the Money Market
Portfolio's securities are valued on the basis of amortized cost. In
connection with its use of amortized cost valuation, the Money Market
Portfolio limits the dollar-weighted average maturity of its investments to
not more than ninety (90) days and does not purchase any instrument with a
remaining maturity of more than one (1) year at the time of purchase,
except that items of collateral securing securities subject to Repurchase
Agreements may bear longer maturities. The Investment Company's Board of
Trustees also has established procedures that are intended to stabilize the
Money Market Portfolio's net asset value per PC for purposes of sales and
redemptions at $1.00. Such procedures include review by the Board of
Trustees, at such intervals as it deems appropriate, to determine the
extent, if any, to which the Money Market Portfolio's net asset value per
PC calculated by using available market quotations deviates from $1.00 per
PC. In the event such deviation exceeds one-half of one percent (0.5%),
the Board of Trustees will promptly consider what action, if any, should be
initiated. If the Board of Trustees believes that the amount of any
deviation from the Money Market Portfolio's $1.00 amortized cost price per
PC may result in material dilution or other unfair results to investors or
existing PC holders of the Money Market Portfolio, it will take such steps
as it considers 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 Money
Market Portfolio's average maturity; withholding or reducing dividends;
redeeming PCs in kind; reducing the number of the Money Market Portfolio's
outstanding PCs without monetary consideration; or utilizing a net asset
value per PC determined by using available market quotations.
Investors should also be aware that although procedures exist which are
intended to stabilize the net asset value of the Money Market Portfolio at
$1.00 per PC, the value of the underlying assets of the Money Market
Portfolio will be affected by general changes in interest rates which will
result in increases or decreases in the value of the obligations held by
the Money Market Portfolio. The market value of the obligations in the
Money Market Portfolio can be expected to vary inversely to changes in
prevailing interest rates. Investors should also recognize that, in
periods of declining interest rates, the Money Market Portfolio's yield
will tend to be somewhat higher than prevailing market rates, and in
periods of rising interest rates, the Money Market Portfolio's yield will
tend to be somewhat lower. Also, when interest rates are falling, the
inflow of net new money to the Money Market Portfolio from the continuous
sale of its PCs will likely be invested in portfolio instruments producing
lower yields than the balance of the Money Market Portfolio, thereby
reducing the Money Market Portfolio's current yield. In periods of rising
interest rates, the opposite can be expected to occur.
Short-Term Portfolio
--------------------
As stated in the Investment Company's Prospectus, the Short-Term
Portfolio's securities (i) for which market quotations are readily
available, are valued at the most recent quoted bid prices provided by
investment dealers, or (ii) for which such quotations are not readily
B-7
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 27
available, are valued at their fair value in the best judgment of N&B under
procedures established by, and under the supervision of, the Investment
Company's Board of Trustees. In connection with these methods of
valuation, the Short-Term Portfolio limits the dollar-weighted average
maturity of its investments to not more than three hundred sixty (360) days
and does not purchase any instrument with a remaining maturity of more than
five and a quarter (5 1/4) years, or its duration equivalent, at the time
of purchase, except that items of collateral securing securities subject to
Repurchase Agreements may bear longer maturities.

$14,998 was paid by the Investment Company for Trustee meeting
expenses and $0 was paid to the Trustees for participation in meetings.

Investment Advisers and Service Agent
-------------------------------------
The services PIMC and N&B provide as Investment Advisers, as well as the
annual fees, calculated as percentages of each Portfolio's annual net
assets, payable to them and expenses assumed by them, are described briefly
in the Investment Company's Prospectus. More specifically, PIMC and N&B
supervise the sales of securities; and place orders for such transactions.
As Service Agent for both Portfolios of the Investment Company, PIMC
maintains, financial and other books and records, including appropriate
journals and ledgers; verifies trade tickets; calculates weighted average
maturity, dividends and yields; prepares unaudited financial statements;
prepares or assists in the preparation of regulatory filings; computes net
asset value and the market value of assets of the Investment Company;
prepares reports to the Board of Trustees of the Investment Company; and
performs related administrative services. PIMC agrees to abide by
applicable legal requirements in providing these services.
In addition, PIMC and N&B have agreed that if, in any fiscal year, the
expenses borne by the Money Market Portfolio or the Short-Term Portfolio,
respectively, exceed the applicable expense limitations imposed by the
securities regulations in any state in which PCs of the Portfolios are
registered or qualified for sale to the public, they will reimburse the
respective Portfolio for any excess to the extent required by such
regulations. Unless otherwise required by law, such reimbursement would be
accrued and paid by the Portfolios. To the knowledge of the Investment
Company, the expense limitations in effect on the date of this Statement of
Additional Information, are no more restrictive than one and one-half
percent (1.5%) of the Money Market Portfolio's or the Short-Term
Portfolio's average net assets up to $30 million and one percent (1%) of
their respective average annual net assets in excess of $30 million. For
the fiscal periods ended December 31, 1992, 1993 and 1994, PIMC was paid
fees of $100,000, $100,000 and $99,291 net of $0, $0 and $709 waived fees,
as service agent for the Short-Term Portfolio. For the same periods PIMC
was paid fees of $1,048,977, $937,715 and $894,209 respectively, net of
$43,617, $21,935 and $10,984 waived fees, as investment advisor and service
agent for the Money Market Portfolio. For the same periods N&B was paid
fees of $226,402, $372,933 and $230,349 respectively, net of $111,395,
$49,858 and $100,985 waived fees, as investment advisor for the Short-Term
Portfolio.
Banking laws and regulations presently prohibit a bank holding company
registered under the Federal Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 or any bank
or non-bank affiliate thereof from sponsoring, organizing, controlling, or
distributing the PCs of a registered, open-end investment company
continuously engaged in the issuance of its PCs, and prohibits banks
generally from issuing, underwriting, selling or distributing securities,
but such banking laws and regulations do not prohibit such a holding
company or affiliate or banks generally from acting as investment adviser,
transfer agent or custodian to such an investment company. PNC Bank, PIMC
and PFPC are subject to such banking laws and regulations.
Administrator
-------------
As the Investment Company's administrator, CSC administers the
B-11

Investment Company's operations, including acting as liaison with its PC
holders, and has agreed to: (i) furnish the Investment Company with
adequate office facilities, utilities, office equipment and related
services; (ii) be responsible for the financial and accounting records
required to be maintained by the Investment Company (including those being
maintained by the Investment Company's custodian and transfer agent, both
of which CSC supervises) other than those being maintained by the
Investment Advisers; (iii) supervise the Investment Company's activities
with respect to accounting, clerical, bookkeeping, recordkeeping and
statistical services at such office facilities; (iv) arrange, but not pay
for, the preparation for the Investment Company and holders of its PCs of
all required tax returns and reports to the Investment Company's PCs

updating of the Registration Statement and Prospectus; (v) oversee the
performance of administrative and professional services to the Investment
Company by others, including the Investment Company's custodian, transfer

permit any of its directors, officers and employees who may be elected as
Trustees or Officers of the Investment Company to serve in the capacities
in which they are elected. The administrator may engage sub-administrators
or servicing agents to perform its obligations under its agreement with the
Investment Company. For the fiscal periods ended December 31, 1992, 1993
and 1994, CSC was paid fees of $326,282, $278,219 and $260,066
respectively, net of $14,539, $7,311 and $ 3,661 waived fees, as
administrator for the Money Market Portfolio and $79,200, $107,597 and
$75,055 net of $0, $0 and $2,016 waived fees, as administrator for the
Short-Term Portfolio.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION CONCERNING TAXES
The following is only a summary of certain additional tax considerations
generally affecting the Investment Company, the Portfolios established
within the Investment Company, and the PC holders of each Portfolio
established within the Investment Company which are not described in the
Investment Company's Prospectus. No attempt is made to present a detailed
explanation of the tax treatment of the Investment Company, the Portfolios
established within the Investment Company, and the discussion here and in
the Investment Company's Prospectus is not intended as a substitute for
careful tax planning.
In order for any particular Portfolio established within the Investment
Company to qualify for tax treatment as a regulated investment company
under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the
Portfolio in question must derive at least ninety percent (90%) of its
gross income in each taxable year from dividends, interest, payments with
respect to security loans (as defined in Code Section 512(a)(5)), and gains
from the sale or other disposition of stock or securities, and derive less
than thirty percent (30%) of its gross income in each taxable year from the
sale or other disposition of securities held for less than three (3)
months. Interest (including original issue discount and certain accrued
B-12
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 32
market discount) received by the particular Portfolio in question at
maturity or disposition of a security held for less than three (3) months
will not be treated as gross income derived from the sale or other
disposition of a security within the meaning of this requirement. In
addition, at the close of each quarter of its taxable year, at least fifty
percent (50%) of the value of the assets of the particular Portfolio in
question must consist of (1) cash and cash items, Government securities and
securities of other regulated investment companies and (2) securities of
other issuers as to which the particular Portfolio in question has not
invested more than five percent (5%) of its total assets in securities of
such issuer and as to which the particular Portfolio in question does not
hold more than ten percent (10%) of the outstanding voting securities of
such issuer. The particular Portfolio in question must not have more than
twenty-five percent (25%) of the value of its total assets invested in the
securities of any one industry (other than U.S. Government obligations or,
in the case of the Money Market Portfolio, certain bank obligations).
Dividends paid out of the interest income and the net short-term capital
gain income of any particular Portfolio are taxable to the PC holders of
that Portfolio as ordinary income, regardless of whether PC holders
reinvest such dividends in PCs of that Portfolio or any other Portfolio or
are paid in cash. Dividends designated as paid out of that particular
Portfolio's net capital gain ("Capital Gain Dividends"), i.e. the excess
of net long-term capital gains over net short-term capital losses, are
taxable to PC holders of the Portfolio as long-term capital gain. Any
Capital Gain Dividends paid by the particular Portfolio in question will be
taxable to PC holders of that Portfolio as long-term capital gains,
regardless of how long PCs of that Portfolio have been held and whether
reinvested in PCs or paid in cash. Under the provisions of the Code,
starting with 1987, any long-term capital gains will be taxed at ordinary
income tax rates, but with special transitional relief being provided, so
that the maximum rate of Federal income tax imposed upon the receipt of any
such long-term capital gains will be thirty-four percent (34%) in the case
of a corporation.
PC holders which are exempt from taxation will treat income resulting
from investments in any particular Portfolio similarly to their other
dividend and long-term capital gain income.
DIVIDENDS
Net income of each Portfolio for dividend purposes (from the time of the
immediately preceding determination thereof) will consist of (i) interest
accrued and dividend earned (including both original issue and market
discount) less amortization of any premium, (ii) plus or minus, in the case
of the Money Market Portfolio only, all realized short-term gains and
losses, if any, attributable to such Portfolio including such Portfolio's
pro rata share of the fees payable to, and the general expenses (e.g.
legal, accounting and Trustee's fees) of, the Investment Company prorated
on the basis of relative net asset value of the Investment Company's other
Portfolio applicable to that period.

PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
Determination of Yield
----------------------
From time to time, the Investment Company may quote the Money Market
Portfolio "yield" and "effective yield" in communications to PC holders
that are deemed to be advertising. Both yield figures are based on
historical earnings and are not intended to indicate future performance.
The "yield" of the Money Market Portfolio refers to the income generated by
an investment in the Portfolio over a seven-day period as identified in the
communication. This income is then annualized. That is, the amount of
income generated by the investment during that week is assumed to be
generated each week over a 52-week period and is shown as a percentage of
the investment. The "effective yield" is calculated similarly but, when
annualized, the income earned by the investment is assumed to be reinvested
weekly. The "effective yield" will be slightly higher than the "yield"
because of the compounding effect of this assumed reinvestment. For the
seven day period ending December 31, 1994 the Money Market Portfolio
average "yield" was 5.60% and the "effective yield" was 5.76%.
From time to time, the Investment Company may also quote the
Short-Term Portfolio "yield" in communications to PC holders that are
deemed to be advertising. The standardized method used to calculate the
Short-Term Portfolio yield differs from the Money Market Portfolio yield
calculation. Short-Term Portfolio yield is calculated by dividing the net
investment income per Participation Certificate during a 30-day (or one
month) period by the price per Participation Certificate on the last day of
that period. The result of this calculation is then annualized assuming
semi-annual reinvestment of dividend income. For the 30 day period ending
December 31, 1994 the Short-Term Portfolio 30 day yield was 5.72%.
The yield of both portfolios was positively affected by fee waivers.
(See "Investment Advisors and Service Agent" and "Administrator" under
"Management of the Investment Company".)
Total Return
------------
From time to time, the Investment Company may quote the total return
of its Short-Term Portfolio in reports and other communications to PC
holders. For this purpose the total return of the Portfolio is an average
annual compound rate of return over the periods cited that will equate a
hypothetical $1,000 investment made at the beginning of the periods to the
redeemable value at the end of the periods cited. The Short-Term Portfolio
total return fluctuates in response to fluctuations in interest rates and
the expenses of the Portfolio. Consequently, any given total return
quotation should not be considered as representative of the Portfolio's
total return in any specified period in the future. The annualized
Short-Term Portfolio total returns were 3.46% for the one year ended
December 31, 1994, 5.55% for the five years ended December 31, 1994 and
6.20% for the March 11, 1987 (commencement of operations) to December 31,
1994 period.

The total return of the Short-Term Portfolio was positively affected by
fee waivers. (See "Investment Advisors and Service Agent" and "Administrator"
under "Management of the Investment Company".)
ADDITIONAL DESCRIPTION CONCERNING
INVESTMENT COMPANY PARTICIPATION CERTIFICATES
The Investment Company's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation
provide that on any manner submitted to a vote of PC holders, all PCs,
irrespective of class, shall be voted in the aggregate and not by class
except that (i) as to the matter with respect to which a separate vote of
any class is required by the 1940 Act or the General Corporation Law of the
State of Maryland, such requirements as to a separate vote by that class
shall apply in lieu of the aggregate voting as described above, and (ii) as
to the matter which does not affect the interest of a particular class,
only PC holders of the affected class shall be entitled to vote thereon.
Rule 18f-2 under the 1940 Act provides that any matter required to be
submitted by the provisions of such 1940 Act or applicable state law, or
otherwise, to the holders of the outstanding voting securities of an
investment company such as the Investment Company shall not be deemed to
have been effectively acted upon unless approved by the holders of a
"majority" of the outstanding PCs (as defined herein under "Miscellaneous")
of each class affected by such matter. Rule 18f-2 further provides that a
class shall be deemed to be affected by a matter unless it is clear that
the interests of each class in the matter are identical or that the matter
does not affect any interest of such class. However, Rule 18f-2 exempts
the selection of independent public accountants and the election of
trustees from ^the separate voting requirements of Rule 18f-2.
The chart below sets forth those PC holders each of which owned of
record or beneficially five percent (5%) or more of the outstanding PCs of
either Portfolio or both Portfolios as of March 8, 1995.

APPENDIX
DESCRIPTION OF BOND AND COMMERCIAL PAPER RATINGS
The Investment Company may invest in securities which at time of purchase
have ratings not lower than the following:
Type of
Security Rating Agency Rating Summary of Rating
-------- ------------- ------ -----------------
Bond Moody's Investors A-3 Bonds which are rated "A"
Service, Inc. possess many favorable
("Moody's") 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. The modifier "3"
indicates that the
issue ranks in the lower
end of its generic rating
category.
Bond Moody's 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 risks appear somewhat
larger then in the "Aaa"
securities.
Bond Standard & Poor's A- Debt rated "A" has a strong
Corporation capacity to pay interest
("S & P") 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. The "minus"
shows a relative lower
standing within the major
"A" category.
B-18
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 38
Type of
Security Rating Agency Rating Summary of Rating
-------- ------------- ------ -----------------
Bond S & P 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.
Commercial Moody's Prime-1 Commercial Paper rated
Paper "Prime-1" has a superior
capacity for repayment of
short-term promissory
obligations evidenced by
leading market positions in
well-established
industries, high rates of
return on funds employed,
conservative capitalization
structure with moderate
reliance on debt and ample
asset protection, broad
margins in earnings
coverage of fixed financial
charges and high internal
cash generation and well
established access to a
range of financial markets
and assured sources of
alternate liquidity.
Commercial S & P A-1 This designation indicates
Paper that the degree of safety
regarding timely payment is
either overwhelming or very
strong.

Notes to Financial Statements
A. Plan Investment Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified open-end regulated
investment company. The Fund consists of two separate portfolios, the Money
Market Portfolio and the Short-Term Portfolio (the "Portfolio(s)"). The Fund
is authorized to issue five billion Participation Certificates ("PCs"), par
value $.001 per PC. The Fund presently offers two classes of PCs as follows:
the Money Market Portfolio - two billion PCs authorized and the Short-Term
Portfolio - one billion PCs authorized.
B. Significant accounting policies relating to the Fund are as follows:
Security Valuation - Money Market Portfolio: Securities are valued under the
amortized cost method, which approximates current market value. Under this
method, securities are valued at cost when purchased and thereafter a
constant proportionate amortization of any discount or premium is recorded
until maturity or sale of the security.
Security Valuation - Short-Term Portfolio: Securities for which market
quotations are readily available (other than debt securities with remaining
maturities of 60 days or less) are valued at the most recent quoted bid
price provided by investment dealers. Debt securities with remaining
maturities of 60 days or less are valued on an amortized cost basis (unless
the Board determines that such basis does not represent fair value at that
time).
Securities Transactions and Investment Income - Securities transactions are
recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments sold
are recorded on the identified cost basis. Interest income is recorded on
the accrual basis.
Dividends to Participation Certificate Holders - Dividends of net investment
income of both Portfolios are declared daily and paid monthly. Dividends
payable are recorded on the dividend record date. The Short-Term Portfolio
will, subject to the use of offsetting capital loss carry-forwards,
distribute net realized short- and long-term capital gains, if any, once each
year.
Federal Income Taxes - No provision is made for federal taxes as it is each
Portfolio's intention to continue to qualify as a regulated investment
company and to make the requisite distributions to Participation Certificate
Holders which will be sufficient to relieve each Portfolio from all, or
substantially all, federal income and excise taxes. At December 31, 1994 the
Short-Term Portfolio had capital loss carry-forwards amounting to $907,947
that expire in 2002. These loss carry-forwards are available to offset
possible future capital gains of the Short-Term Portfolio.
Repurchase Agreements - Each Portfolio may agree to purchase money market
instruments from financial institutions such as banks and broker-dealers
subject to the seller's agreement to repurchase them at an agreed upon date
and price ("repurchase agreements"). The seller under a repurchase agreement
is required on a daily basis to maintain the value of the securities subject
to the agreement at not less than the repurchase price. The agreement is
conditioned upon the collateral being deposited under the Federal Reserve
book entry system.

Notes to Financial Statements
-----------------------------
Estimated Maturities - The maturity of collateralized mortgage obligations
and other asset backed securities may vary due to prepayments of principal.
The maturity dates for these securities are estimates based on historic
prepayment factors.
Variable Rate Obligations - For variable rate obligations, the interest
rate presented is as of December 31, 1994 and the maturity shown is the
date of the next interest readjustment.
C. The Fund has entered into agreements for advisory, administrative, service
agent, custodian and transfer agent services as follows:
Money Market Portfolio - PNC Institutional Management Corporation ("PIMC"),
a wholly owned subsidiary of PNC Bank, National Association ("PNC Bank"),
serves as the Portfolio's investment advisor and service agent. As
compensation for its services the Portfolio pays PIMC a fee, computed daily
and paid monthly, at the following rate: .20% of the first $250 million,
.15% of the next $250 million, .12% of the next $250 million, .10% of the
next $250 million, and .08% of amounts in excess of $1 billion.
Short-Term Portfolio - Neuberger & Berman ("N&B"), a New York limited
partnership, serves as the Portfolio's investment advisor. As compensation
for its services, the Portfolio pays N&B a fee, computed daily and paid
monthly, at the following rate: .30% of the first $50 million, .20% of the
next $50 million, .15% of the next $150 million, and .10% of amounts in
excess of $250 million.
Health Plans Capital Services Corp. ("CSC") serves as the Fund's
administrator and acts generally in a supervisory capacity with respect to
the Fund's overall operations and relations with holders of PCs. As
compensation for its services each Portfolio pays CSC a fee, computed daily
and payable monthly at an annual rate not to exceed .05% of the average
daily net assets of each of the Fund's Portfolios.
PNC Bank acts as custodian of the Fund's assets and PFPC Inc. ("PFPC"), an
affiliate of PNC Bank, acts as the fund's transfer agent and dividend
disbursing agent. In addition, PIMC serves as the Short-Term Portfolio
service agent. PNC Bank, PIMC and PFPC receive fees from the Fund for
serving in these capacities.
PIMC and N&B have agreed contractually to reduce their advisory fees
otherwise payable to them in 1994 by the Money Market Portfolio and the
Short-Term Portfolio, respectively, to the extent necessary to reduce the
ordinary operating expenses of both Portfolios individually so that they do

Report of Independent Accountants
To the Participation Certificate Holders and
Trustees of Plan Investment Fund, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets of the Money Market
Portfolio and Short-Term Portfolio of Plan Investment Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") as
of December 31, 1994, 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 the financial highlights for each of the five years in
the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are
the responsibility of the Fund'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 physical inspection and confirmation of
investments held by the custodian and others as of December 31, 1994. 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 Plan
Investment Fund, Inc. as of December 31, 1994, 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
five years in the period then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

As of March 8, 1995 , the number of record holders of
Investment Company PCs were as follows:

Item 27. Indemnification
---------------
Under Article IX of the Registrant's Articles of Incorporation,
any Trustee, Officer, employee or agent of the Registrant is indemnified to
the fullest extent permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of
Maryland from and against any and all of the expenses and liabilities
reasonably incurred by him in connection with any action, suit or proceeding
to which he may be a party or otherwise involved by reason of his being or
having been a Trustee, Officer, employee or agent of the Registrant. This
provision does not authorize indemnification when it is determined that such
Trustee, Officer, employee or agent would otherwise be liable to Registrant or
its PC holders by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence
or reckless disregard of his duties (collectively, "Disabling Conduct").
The Registrant shall use reasonable and fair means to determine whether
such indemnification shall be made. The determination that a person to be
indemnified is not liable to the Registrant or its PC holders by reason of
Disabling Conduct, and therefore eligible for indemnification, shall be
determined by (i) a final decision on the merits by a court or other body
before whom such proceeding is brought or (ii) after their review of the
facts, by vote of a majority of a quorum of Trustees who are neither
"interested persons" (as defined in the 1940 Act) nor parties to the
proceeding (a "Disinterested Majority") or by independent counsel in a written
opinion to the Registrant. The Registrant's indemnification policy permits
the Registrant to advance attorneys' fees or other expenses incurred by its
Trustees, Officers, employees or agents in defending such a proceeding, upon
the undertaking by or on behalf of the indemnitee to repay the advance unless
it is determined ultimately that he is entitled to indemnification. As a
condition to such advance (i) the indemnitee shall provide a security for his
undertaking, (ii) the Registrant shall be insured against losses arising by
reason of any lawful advances, or (iii) a Disinterested Majority, or an
independent legal counsel in a written opinion to the Investment Company,
shall determine, based on a review of readily available facts to the
Investment Company, that there is reason to believe that the indemnitee
ultimately will be found entitled to indemnification.
Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act") may be permitted to Trustees, Officers and
C-3
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 60
controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or
otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is,
therefore unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a Trustee, Officer or controlling person of the Registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by
such Trustee, Officer or controlling person in connection with the securities
being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel
the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the
final adjudication of such issue.

0.001073068
Base Period Return = 0.001073068/1 = 0.001073068
Formula
-------
Average Yield = Base Period Return * (365/7)
= 0.001073068 * (365/7)
= 0.0560
= 5.60%
(B) Effective Yield for 7 Day Period ending December 31, 1994
---------------------------------------------------------
Formula
-------
Effective Yield = ((Base Period Return + 1) ^ (365/7)) - 1
= (1.001073068 ^ (365/7)) - 1
= 0.0576
= 5.76%

--------------------
(A) 30 Day Yield for the Period ending December 31, 1994
A = Interest earned during the period = 517,708
B = Expenses accrued during the period = 25,762
C = Average PCs outstanding during the period = 10,517,224
D = Maximum offering price on last day of period = 9.93
Formula
-------
30 Day Yield = 2 (((((A-B)/(C*D))+1)^6)-1)
= 2 (((((517,708-25,762)/(10,517,224*9.93)+1)^6)-1)
= 0.0572
