DEAR SHAREHOLDER:

Thus far in 1998, equity investors have experienced a "roller-coaster" ride that
has been both dramatic and ugly. Stock mutual funds of almost every stripe and
color fell sharply during the third quarter. According to Lipper Analytical
Services, Inc., the average diversified U.S. stock fund posted a negative 15%
return during the quarter, with small company funds losing over 21%.
International equity funds also experienced downturns over the last three
months, with diversified international funds losing 16% on average and emerging
markets funds sliding a steep 23%.*

The three months ending September 30 represented the worst quarter for U.S.
stock funds since the third quarter of 1990. At that time, we were in a heated
showdown with Saddam Hussein and Iraq. The obvious question on everyone's mind
today is: what are the drivers causing the extreme volatility being experienced
in the markets? We think that the answer may be as simple as a shift in
psychology by investors. From January 1997 through July 1998, investors were
comfortable with assuming risk -- almost too comfortable. Equity valuations
reflected a close to perfect environment. Bond yield comparisons to U.S.
Treasuries also reflected a comfort with credit risk. However, Russia's debt
default in August 1998 was the last in a combination of bad news and
uncertainties that changed the prevailing mind set and compelled investors to
run for cover. Global anxieties were sufficient overall to push investors in one
direction: "risk avoidance."

As we look forward, several thoughts come to mind that lead us to remain
optimistic: 1) interest rates have dropped to thirty-year lows and the U.S.
economy is very rate sensitive; 2) inflation remains in check; 3) corporate
profits, while slowing, should pick up if our economy avoids recession; 4)
Japan's government is attacking its banking crisis with an approach similar to
that used in the U.S. savings and loan crisis in the 1980s; and 5) the Federal
Reserve Board has twice moved in the last month to lower the target on the
Federal funds rate in an effort to fend off any "credit crunch."

While the risk for recession in 1999 is growing, we believe that conditions in
the U.S. will remain sound and that next year will be another year of positive
economic activity. Consistent monetary policy, a solid fiscal condition, low
inflation, and high employment are the important ingredients for our economic
picture. Investors need to remain alert and appreciate the fact that changing
conditions may translate into further market volatility. On behalf of our
shareholders, we will stay vigilant in our work as we pursue the Funds'
objectives.

Sincerely,

/s/ A. Max Walker                          /s/ Robert H. Gordon

classes of shares: Primary A Shares, Primary B Shares, Investor A Shares,
Investor B Shares, Investor C Shares and Daily Shares. Shareholders of a Fund
have equal voting rights on matters affecting all shareholders of the Fund. In
addition, each class of shares of a Fund has exclusive voting rights on matters
that relate solely to its class and separate voting rights on matters which the
interests of one class of shares differ from the interest of any other class.

1.    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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

Securities Valuation: Securities are valued on the basis of amortized cost,
which approximates market value. Amortized cost valuation involves initially
valuing an instrument at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant
amortization to maturity of any discount or premium, as long as the effect of
fluctuating interest rates on the market value of the instrument is not
significant. Restricted securities and certain other assets are valued by the
investment advisor under the supervision of the Board of Trustees/Directors.

Repurchase Agreements: Each Fund may engage in repurchase agreement
transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Fund takes
possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the
seller to repurchase, and the Fund to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon
price and date, thereby determining the yield during the Fund's holding period.
This arrangement results in a fixed rate of return that is not subject to market
fluctuations during the Fund's holding period. The value of the collateral is at
least equal at all times to the total amount of the repurchase obligations,
including interest. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Fund
has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. There would be a
potential loss to the Fund in the event the Fund is delayed or prevented from
exercising its right to dispose of the collateral securities, including the risk
of a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the
period while the Fund seeks to assert its right. The Funds' investment advisor
and sub-advisor, acting under the supervision of the Board of
Trustees/Directors, monitor the value of collateral received as well as the
creditworthiness of those banks and dealers with which the Funds enter into
repurchase agreements to evaluate potential risks.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements: Each Fund may enter into reverse repurchase
agreements with institutions that the Funds' investment advisor and sub-advisor
has determined are creditworthy. Under the terms of a typical reverse repurchase
agreement, the Fund sells securities and agrees to repurchase them at a mutually
agreed upon date and price. At the time the Fund enters into a reverse
repurchase agreement, it establishes a segregated account with its custodian
bank in which it will maintain cash, U.S. Government securities or other
appropriate liquid securities at least equal in value to the Funds' obligations
arising under the reverse repurchase agreement. Reverse repurchase agreements
involve the risk that the market value of the securities purchased with the
proceeds from the sale of securities received by the Fund may decline below the
price of the securities that the Fund is obligated to repurchase. Securities
subject to repurchase under reverse repurchase agreements are designated in the
Statement of Net Assets.

At September 30, 1998, the Treasury Fund had reverse repurchase agreements
outstanding as follows:

Maturity Amount ..................................      $495,588,000
Maturity Date ....................................          10/01/98
Market Value of Assets Sold Under Agreements .....      $485,000,000

The average daily balance of reverse repurchase agreements outstanding by the
Treasury Fund during the six months ended September 30, 1998 was $420,931,000.

The proceeds received by the Treasury Fund under the reverse repurchase
agreements were reinvested in a tri-party repurchase agreement. Net fees earned
during the six months ended September 30, 1998, representing the difference
between interest rates on the reverse repurchase and repurchase agreements,
amounted to $397,000 and have been included in interest income in the Statement
of Operations.

Securities Transactions and Investment Income: Securities transactions are
accounted for on trade date. Realized gains and losses are computed based on the
specific identification of securities sold. Interest income, adjusted for
accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums calculated ratably, is
earned from the settlement date and recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend
income is recorded on ex-dividend date. Each Fund's investment income and
realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated among its classes based
upon the relative net assets of each class of shares. Securities purchased or
sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more
after the trade date.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders: It is the policy of each Fund to
declare dividends daily from net investment income and to pay such dividends
monthly. Each Fund will distribute net realized short-term capital gains
annually after the fiscal year in which the capital gains were earned or more
frequently to maintain a net asset value of $1.00 per share, unless offset by
any available capital loss carryforward. Income distributions and capital gain
distributions on a Fund level are determined in accordance with Federal income
tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.

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

Expenses: General expenses of the Trust or Company are allocated to the Funds
based upon relative net assets. Expenses directly attributable to a Fund or
class of shares are charged to such Fund or class. Expenses not directly
attributable to any class of shares are prorated based on the relative net
assets of each class.

Cash Flow Information: Cash, as used in the Statement of Cash Flows, is the
amount reported in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and represents cash
on hand at custodian banks. The Trust and the Company issue and redeem shares,
invest in securities, and distribute dividends from net investment income and
net capital gains (which are either paid in cash or reinvested at the discretion
of shareholders). These activities are reported in the Statements of Changes in
Net Assets. Information on cash payments is presented in the Statement of Cash
Flows.

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

Each of the Trust and the Company has entered into an investment advisory
agreement (the "Investment Advisory Agreements") with NationsBanc Advisors, Inc.
("NBAI"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of NationsBank, N.A., ("NationsBank"),
pursuant to which NBAI provides investment advisory services to the Funds. Under
the Investment Advisory Agreements, NBAI is entitled to receive a fee calculated
daily and paid monthly based on the average daily net assets as follows: (i)
Government Money Market and Tax Exempt at the annual rate of 0.40% and (ii)
Prime and Treasury at the annual rate of 0.25% on combined net assets up to $250
million and 0.20% on combined net assets exceeding $250 million.

Each of the Trust and the Company has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with
NBAI and TradeStreet Investment Associates, Inc. ("TradeStreet"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of NationsBank, pursuant to which TradeStreet is entitled to receive
a sub-advisory fee from NBAI at the annual rate of 0.055% of each Fund's average
daily net assets.

Stephens, Inc. ("Stephens") serves as the administrator of the Trust and the
Company. First Data Investor Services Group, Inc. ("First Data"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of First Data Corporation, serves as co-administrator. Stephens and
First Data are entitled to receive a combined fee, computed daily and paid
monthly, at the annual rate of 0.10% of the average daily net assets of the
Funds. NBAI is the sub-administrator of the Company and Nations Portfolios. For
the six months ended September 30, 1998, Stephens earned $4,721,000, net of fee
waivers, from the Funds for its administration services, of which $640,000 was
paid to NBAI for its services as sub-administrator.

The investment advisor, sub-advisor and administrator may, from time to time,
reduce their fees payable by each Fund.

For the six months ended September 30, 1998, fees waived were as follows:

                             Fees waived           Fees waived
                             by Advisor          by Administrator
                           --------------------------------------
Tax Exempt ..............   $ 2,889,000              $265,000
Treasury ................       278,000               297,000

Prime ...................       466,000               684,000

NationsBank of Texas, N.A. ("NationsBank of Texas") served as the custodian of
the Trust's and the Company's assets until it merged with NationsBank on May 6,
1998. NationsBank began serving as custodian for the Trust's and the Company's
assets on that date and is providing the same services as were previously
provided by NationsBank of Texas. For the six months ended September 30, 1998,
NationsBank of Texas and NationsBank earned $2,000 and $10,000, respectively,
for providing such services. The Bank of New York ("BNY") has entered into
agreements with each of the Funds and NationsBank whereby BNY serves as
sub-custodian for the Funds. For the six months ended September 30, 1998,
expenses of the Funds were reduced by $9,000 under expense offset arrangements
with BNY. The Funds could have invested a portion of the assets utilized in
connection with the expense offset arrangements in an income producing asset if
they had not entered into such arrangements.

First Data also serves as the transfer agent for the Funds' shares. NationsBank
of Texas also served as the sub-transfer agent for the Primary Shares of the
Funds until it merged with NationsBank on May 6, 1998. NationsBank began serving
as the sub-transfer agent for the Primary Shares of the Funds on that date and
is providing the same services as were previously provided by NationsBank of
Texas. For the six months ended September 30, 1998, NationsBank of Texas and
NationsBank earned approximately $2,000 and $8,000, respectively, for providing
such services. Stephens also serves as distributor of the Funds' shares.

The Trust and the Company pay each unaffiliated Trustee or Director an annual
fee of $1,000 ($3,000 for the Chairman of the Board), plus $500 per Fund and an
additional $1,000 for each in-person board meeting and $500 for each telephonic
board meeting attended. The Trust and the Company also reimburse expenses
incurred by each unaffiliated Trustee or Director in attending such meetings.

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

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

On September 30, 1998, NationsBank Corporation, the parent company of
NationsBank, merged with BankAmerica Corporation.

3.  SHAREHOLDER SERVICING AND DISTRIBUTION PLANS

The Trust and the Company each have adopted shareholder servicing plans and
distribution plans for the Primary B, Investor B, Investor C and Daily Shares of
each Fund. The shareholder servicing plans permit the Funds to compensate or
reimburse servicing agents for shareholder services provided by the servicing
agents. The distributions plans, adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940
Act, permit the Fund to compensate or reimburse the distributor (and for
Investor A Shares, the distributor and/or selling agents) for activities or
expenses primarily intended to result in the sale of the classes' shares.
Payments are made at an annual rate, as a percentage of average daily net assets
set from time to time by the Board of Trustees/Directors, and are charged as
expenses of each Fund directly to the applicable class. A substantial portion of
the expenses pursuant to these plans is paid to affiliates of NationsBank and
NBAI.

At September 30, 1998, the actual rates in effect and plan limits, as a
percentage of average daily net assets, were as follows:

                                                         Plan

6. LINE OF CREDIT

The Trust and Company participate in an uncommitted line of credit provided by
BNY under an agreement (the "Agreement") dated July 10, 1998. Advances under the
Agreement are taken primarily for temporary or emergency purposes, including the
meeting of redemption requests that otherwise might require the untimely
disposition of securities. Interest on borrowings is payable at the Federal
funds rate plus 0.50% on an annualized basis. Each participating Fund maintains
a ratio of no less than 4 to 1 net assets (not including funds borrowed pursuant
to the Agreement) to aggregate amount of indebtedness pursuant to the Agreement.

For the six months ended September 30, 1998, borrowing by the Funds was as
follows:

                               AVERAGE                       AVERAGE    AVERAGE
                                AMOUNT        AVERAGE         DEBT      INTEREST

9.    SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Effective October 19, 1998, Bank of New York began serving as the custodian for
the Trust's and the Company's assets and is providing the same services as were
previously provided by NationsBank. There no longer is a sub-custodian for the
Trust or the Company.

On November 5, 1998 ,the Boards of Directors/Trustees of each of the Trust and
the Company approved changes in the Funds' administration arrangements whereby
NBAI and Stephens will each serve as co-administrators for the Funds, and BNY
will serve as sub-administrator. These changes, which will become effective for
the Funds in the fourth quarter of 1998, will reflect an increase in the overall
administration fees paid by the Funds.
