ATTACHMENT FOR FORM N-SAR SUB-ITEM 77D
FORTIS SERIES FUND, INC.
(U.S. Government Securities Series, Diversified Income
Series, and High Yield Series)
Effective May 1, 1996, the investment objectives of the
U.S. Government Securities Series, Diversified Income
Series and High Yield Series of Fortis Series Fund,
Inc., were each revised as set forth below. The Boards
of Directors approved these changes by Board Resolution
dated March 21, 1996.
U.S. Government Securities Series:
(previous objective language)
"High level of current income through investment
primarily in debt securities of varying maturities
which have been issued, guaranteed, insured or
collateralized by the United States Government or its
agencies or instrumentalities."
(new objective language)
"Maximize total return (from income and market value
change), while providing shareholders with a high level
of current income consistent with prudent investment
risk through investing primarily in debt securities of
varying maturities which have been issued, guaranteed,
insured or collateralized by the United States
Government or its agencies or instrumentalities."
Diversified Income Series:
(previous objective language)
"High level of current income by investing primarily in
diversified portfolio of government securities and
investment grade corporate bonds. However, up to 30%
of Diversified Income Series' total assets may be
invested in non-investment grade corporate bonds and
other securities."
(new objective language)
"Maximize total return (from income and market value
change), by investing primarily in diversified
portfolio of government securities and investment grade
corporate bonds. However, up to 30% of Diversified
Income Series' total assets may be invested in non-
investment grade corporate bonds and other securities."
High Yield Series:
(previous objective language)
"Maximize total return through current income and
capital appreciation by investing primarily in high-
yield, high-risk fixed income securities, which may not
be suitable for all investors."
(new objective language)
"Maximize total return (from income and market value
change), by investing primarily in high-yield, high-
risk fixed income securities, which may not be suitable
for all investors."
