MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FUND PERFORMANCE
===============================================================================
SEI INSTITUTIONAL MANAGED TRUST -- SEPTEMBER 30, 1996


 LARGE CAP VALUE PORTFOLIO
     ADVISER--SEI FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT CORPORATION
       SUB-ADVISERS--MELLON EQUITY ASSOCIATES
                     MERUS-UCA CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
                     LSV ASSET MANAGEMENT
OBJECTIVE
      The Portfolio seeks to provide long-term growth of capital and income by
investing in the equity securities of large companies. The Portfolio invests
primarily in a diversified portfolio of high quality, income producing common
stocks, which in the adviser's opinion, are undervalued in the marketplace at
the time of purchase.

STRATEGY
      SEI Financial Management Corporation ("SFM") employs a multi-manager
structure to gain exposure to the entire large cap value sector, adding value
through stock selection while minimizing risk in the form of capitalization,
valuation and economic sector exposures. The Portfolio is jointly sub-advised by
three investment managers. Assets of the Portfolio are strategically allocated
among its three sub-advisers, each of whom has responsibility for stock
selection for its respective assets under management.
      Through various investment approaches, each sub-adviser contributes a
unique expertise or substyle to the Portfolio. LSV Asset Management invests in
companies trading at deep discounts to their intrinsic value. Mellon Equity
Associates invests primarily in large cap value stocks that are representative
of the market. Merus-UCA Capital Management pursues an investment strategy
focusing on companies with above market dividend yields.
      Each of the aforementioned substyles assumes a different importance in
determining overall style risk, and must therefore be weighted accordingly.

ANALYSIS
      The Portfolio posted a 18.3% return for the year ended September 30, 1996
led by stock selection within electrics and telephones.
      Domestic equity markets continued to move higher over the year as stock
prices benefited from strong economic fundamentals throughout the year. Low
interest rates accompanied by low inflation led the way for the popular "soft
landing" that to date, has been achieved. Large cap stocks dominated small caps
over the time period and growth outperformed value. Factors that drove the
market in 1995, have continued to be dominant throughout fiscal 1996.
Specifically, money center and major regional banks have continued to rise on
consolidation, cost-cutting and merger activity. The industry remains one of the
last merger plays in the market today. In addition, technology stocks recovered
from a sell off in the first and second calendar quarters of 1996 to be among
the best returning industries for the year. However, the electric utility
industry struggles amid competition concerns while telephone stocks experienced
a let down following a strong 1995 on profit taking and competition concerns.
      The Portfolio benefited from exposure in the bank industry, but most of
the return came as a result of the specific stock selection in the
underperforming telephone and electric utility group. Despite industry wide
concerns, specific stocks contributed to the overall return of the Portfolio.
Consolidation is beginning to become a large factor in the industry performance.
In the Portfolio, Noram Energy and Portland General were among the top five
returning utilities due to merger activity. In addition, gas prices have slowly
risen.

                                                                               1

LARGE CAP GROWTH PORTFOLIO

        ADVISER--SEI FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT CORPORATION
        SUB-ADVISERS--ALLIANCE CAPITAL MANAGEMENT, L.P.
                 IDS ADVISORY GROUP, INC.
                 PROVIDENT INVESTMENT COUNSEL, INC.
OBJECTIVE
      The investment objective of the Large Cap Growth Portfolio is capital
appreciation by investing in the equity securities of large companies. The
Portfolio invests in the securities of issuers believed to possess significant
growth potential.

STRATEGY
      SEI Financial Management ("SFM") employs a multi-manager structure to gain
exposure to the entire large cap growth sector, adding value through stock
selection while minimizing risk in the form of capitalization, valuation and
economic sector exposures. The Portfolio is jointly sub-advised by three
investment managers. Assets of the Portfolio are strategically allocated among
its sub-advisers, each of which has responsibility for stock selection for its
respective assets under management.
      Through various investment approaches, each sub-adviser contributes a
unique expertise or sub-style to the Portfolio. Alliance Capital Management,
L.P. invests in large cap growth stocks that are representative of the market.
IDS Advisory Group Inc. invests primarily in large-cap growth stocks whose
sector is expected to outperform the market. Provident Investment Counsel, Inc.
invests primarily in mid-cap and large-cap stocks which are expected to
demonstrate very high long term earnings growth.
      Each of the aforementioned sub-styles assumes a different importance in
determining overall style risk, and must therefore be weighted accordingly.

ANALYSIS
      The Portfolio returned 20.59% for the one-year period ended September 30,
1996. Through our continuous monitoring of the Portfolio's sources of return, we
identified an area of the market which we did not have full exposure. As a
result, Provident Investment Counsel, Inc. was added as a sub-advisor to the
portfolio to exploit the opportunities in the very high growth, mid-cap to
large-cap companies.
      Technology stocks continued their strong advances throughout the year and
contributed significantly to the Portfolio's performance. Healthcare and
consumer non-durables companies, each significant exposures in the Portfolio,
experienced sharp gains as the stability of earnings growth for these companies
become very attractive as corporate earnings growth, along with the economy,
begins to slow.

<PAGE>

      While the broad market advanced significantly during the year, the
telephone industry was rather weak as competition sharply increased at the same
time as AT&T engineered their breakup. Also, given the tragic airline crashes
and rising fuel prices, this industry has been disappointing.
      The Portfolio continues to be positioned for slower economic growth and
low interest rates. Consumer, drug, financial services and technology companies
are expected to perform strong in this economy.

           SUB-ADVISER--1838 INVESTMENT ADVISORS, L.P.
                        BOSTON PARTNERS ASSET MANAGEMENT, L.P.

OBJECTIVES
      The Small Cap Value Portfolio seeks to provide capital appreciation by
investing in equity securities of smaller companies. The Portfolio invests in
the stocks of companies whose prices appear low relative to certain fundamental
characteristics such as earnings, book value or return on equity.

STRATEGY
      SEI Financial Management Corporation's ("SFM") investment strategy is to
add value through stock selection while minimizing risk in the form of
capitalization, valuation and economic sector exposures. The Portfolio is
sub-advised by two investment managers, which are responsible for the stock
selection of the Portfolio.
      Using a bottom-up selection process, 1838 Investment Advisors, L.P.
screens a universe of over 9000 companies to generate a list of stocks with low
market capitalization and low price-to-earnings ratios. These survivors are then
rigorously evaluated to create a portfolio of securities with strong balance
sheets and potential for price appreciation.
      Boston Partners Asset Management combines quantitative and fundamental
approaches to seeking out value by examining many facets of companies'
fundamental worth. Book value is stressed as a common measure among these
facets, as are high returns on assets, turnaround situations and the presence of
catalysts to realize fundamental value.

                                                                               3

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FUND PERFORMANCE
===============================================================================
SEI INSTITUTIONAL MANAGED TRUST -- SEPTEMBER 30, 1996



ANALYSIS
      The Small Cap Value Portfolio posted a 10.9% return for fiscal year ended
1996. Boston Partners Asset Management was added to the portfolio in November
1995 and brings a more diverse value approach to the Portfolio.
      Fiscal 1996 was a good one for financial and energy related stocks.
Companies within the financial services industry benefited from both low
interest rates and merger related activity within the industry. Higher oil
prices and rising tensions in the Middle East help propel the energy sector
higher with the domestic oil industry leading the way. Consumer durable
companies benefited from the lower interest rate environment, as well as, the
rising level of consumer confidence.
      The Portfolio returns were hurt for the year due to the underweighting in
the finance, apparel and energy sectors of the market. The apparel industry was
one the worst performing industry for the year as several companies consistently
reported lower than expected earnings. However, good stock selection in the food
& agriculture and paper products industries added to the overall return of the
Portfolio.
      The Portfolio continues to focus on companies with low price-to-asset
ratios as the market climbs to new highs. Over time, this strategy has proven to
reward investors with superior returns without taking on unrewarded risks.

OBJECTIVES
      The Small Cap Growth Portfolio seeks to provide long-term capital
appreciation by investing in equity securities of smaller companies. The
Portfolio invests in the stocks of companies that are in a early stage or at a
transitional point in their development and have demonstrated or have potential
for above average capital growth.

      SEI Financial Management Corporation ("SFM") employs a multi-manager
structure to gain exposure to the entire small cap growth sector, adding value

tion, valuation and economic sector exposures. The Portfolio is jointly
sub-advised by four investment managers. Assets of the portfolio are
strategically allocated among its four sub-advisers, each of which has a
responsibility for stock selection for its respective assets under management.
      Through various investment approaches, each sub-advisor contributes a
particular expertise or sub-style to the Portfolio. Apodaca-Johnston Capital
Management, Inc. invests primarily in micro-cap stocks with above average
earnings acceleration. First of America Investment Corporation pursues an
investment strategy focusing on strong sales and earnings growth.
Nicholas-Applegate Capital Management, Inc. screens stocks for high and
accelerated earnings growth and then selects those with attractive current
prices relative to sustainable cash flow. Wall Street Associates seeks out
micro-cap stocks with long-term earnings growth potential.
      Each of the aforementioned sub-styles assumes a different importance in
determining overall style risk, and must therefore be weighted accordingly.

ANALYSIS
      The Small Cap Growth Portfolio (Class A shares) posted an impressive 26.6%
for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1996. Fiscal 1996 was an eventful year
for the Portfolio. Investment Advisers, Inc. and Pilgrim Baxter & Associates,
Ltd. resigned in December, 1995 and June of 1996, respectively, because of style
and business issues, and First of America Investment Corporation was hired as a
sub-advisor on June 3, 1996. This transition has allowed the Portfolio to
increase its exposure to the micro-cap end of the market as well as pare back
its exposure to momentum.
      Fiscal 1996 was a good one for the drug and retail sectors of the market.
With interest rates remaining low and consumer confidence rising throughout the
year, retailers continued to report higher than expected earnings. The Portfolio
benefited from the combination of its 5.0% average weight and superior stock
selection in the retail sector. Drug & medicine stocks performed particularly
well as the FDA expedited the approval process of new pharmaceuticals and
medical devices.
         The Portfolio benefited from its exposure to momentum. Fiscal 1996 was
an ideal time for this sub-style to perform well due to the continued volatility
in the market. The Portfolio continues to be style neutral to the Frank Russell
2000 Growth Index. In the first quarter of fiscal 1997, SEI will add a manager
that will reduce the Portfolio's exposure to momentum.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FUND PERFORMANCE
===============================================================================
SEI INSTITUTIONAL MANAGED TRUST -- SEPTEMBER 30, 1996


 MID-CAP PORTFOLIO
  ADVISER-SEI FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT CORPORATION
  SUB-ADVISER-MARTINGALE ASSET MANAGEMENT L.P.

OBJECTIVES
      The Portfolio seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation by investing
primarily in equity securities of mid-sized companies.

STRATEGY
      The Portfolio's investment philosophy is based on a bottom-up stock
selection process which emphasizes securities that have dramatic earnings
acceleration, sustainable growth, positive relative price momentum and an
attractive valuation. This philosophy results in a Portfolio which will tend to
have a higher than average price-to-earnings ratio, price-to-book ratio, and
return on equity, and a lower than average dividend yield.

ANALYSIS
      The Mid-Cap Portfolio gained 16.0% for the year ended September 30, 1996
driven by stock selection in business machines and drug stocks.
      Domestic equity markets continued to move higher over the year as stock
prices benefited from strong economic fundamentals throughout the year. Low
interest rates accompanied by low inflation led the way for the popular "soft
landing" that to date, has been achieved. Large cap stocks dominated small caps
over the time period and growth outperformed value.
      The sectors that drove the market in 1995, finance and technology, are the
same two that pushed the market to the record levels in 1996. Consolidation and
cost-cutting have allowed banks to build reserves and withstand higher loan
defaults and slightly rising interest rates. Strong demand for computer chips in
1995 slowed slightly in 1996, but have just recently regained their strength.
The business machine industry withstood a slight sell-off in the first and
second quarter of 1996, but rebounded strongly in the third calendar quarter.
      The Mid-Cap Portfolio maintained a 4.5% position in banks which was a 
strong policy for the year. Comerica and US Bancorp were both up more than 44% 
for the year, and together they contributed 35 basis points to the overall 
return. Insurance, thrifts and miscellaneous finance were also contributors to 
the return for the year. Drug companies also showed strong returns, specifically
Bergen Brunswig Corp. and Value Health Inc., up 51.3% and 30.2% respectively.
      Technology, following its mild sell off due to slowing demand, saw a
rebound in orders as inventory was reduced. With the pick up in microchip
demand, related technology stocks in the hardware, software and computer retail
companies shared in the run-up. Gateway 2000 and Western Digital Corp. were two
such related stocks that returned 56.1% and 107.0%, respectively. The Portfolio
has been managed over the year to provide consistent mid cap exposure with
little drift in style. It has successfully provided exposure with added value
through stock selection.

CAPITAL APPRECIATION
                           PORTFOLIO
          ADVISER--SEI FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT CORPORATION
            SUB-ADVISER--STI CAPITAL MANAGEMENT, N.A.

OBJECTIVES
      The Capital Appreciation Portfolio seeks to provide capital appreciation
through a diversified portfolio of common stocks. Dividend income is incidental
to the growth of capital. Securities are selected for the Portfolio based on
factors believed to be favorable for long-term appreciation, such as historical
returns on equity and earnings growth rates. Holdings in the Portfolio are
rotated between various market sectors based on economic analysis of the
business cycle.

STRATEGY
      The investment management process followed by the sub-adviser emphasizes
business cycle analysis, sector rotation and stock selection. The sub-adviser
identifies market sectors that appear undervalued and/or are outperforming other
sectors during a specific interval in the business cycle. The sub-adviser then
selects securities with a history of growth and a P/E ratio below comparable
companies in that market sector. Trading ranges are assigned for the prices of
these companies and these companies are actively traded while the sector remains
in favor. As a sector's favor changes over the business cycle, holdings are
shifted into the sectors showing the most potential for return.

ANALYSIS
      The Portfolio returned 22.1% for the one-year period ended September 30,
1996. Performance benefited during the year from strong stock selection and
industry selection as well as a low cash position and more concentrated
holdings.
      As the Federal Reserve engineered a soft-landing during the past twelve
months, the slowing economy provided a broad trading range for securities.
Growth companies were in favor over this time period as investors shifted from
smaller-cap companies into more predictable large-cap companies with proven
records of earnings growth. Additionally, there was a significant amount of
sector rotation in large-cap growth companies during the fiscal year.
Technology, healthcare, leisure and financial services companies have each been
in and out of favor during the year. The Portfolio benefited from this
volatility as overvalued securities were traded for undervalued securities which
enhanced performance from stock selection.
      The Portfolio, which invests primarily in high quality growth companies,
is in position to take advantage of slower corporate earnings growth and economy
as well as stable interest rates.

                                                                               7

EQUITY INCOME PORTFOLIO
            ADVISOR--SEI FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT CORPORATION
              SUB-ADVISOR--MERUS-UCA CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

OBJECTIVES
      The Portfolio seeks to provide current income, moderate capital
appreciation, and long-term growth of capital through a diversified portfolio of
common stocks. The Portfolio invests in securities which have a high current
yield and a low level of volatility relative to the market while participating
in rising markets.

STRATEGY
      The investment management process followed by the sub-adviser emphasizes
current income. The Portfolio is managed to provide a yield which is
approximately 120 to 200 basis points above the yield on the S&P 500. Securities
which have favorable long-term fundamental characteristics are selected for the
Portfolio when their current yields are at the upper end of their historic yield
ranges. When the price of a stock rises sufficiently to cause its yield to drop
to the lower end of this historic range, the security will be sold. The yield of
a security might vary between its buy and sell range over a three or four year
cycle, and the turnover of the Portfolio is typically a low 30% per year.

ANALYSIS
      The Portfolio returned 18.2% for the year ended September 30, 1996 driven
by exposure in the banking sector as well as stock selection in the telephone
industry.
      Domestic equity markets continued to move higher over the year as stock
prices benefited from strong economic fundamentals throughout the year. Low
interest rates accompanied by low inflation led the way for the popular "soft
landing" that to date, has been achieved. Large cap stocks dominated small caps
over the time period and growth outperformed value. High quality, yield stocks
have failed to keep up with the technology dominated stock market rally in 1996.
In addition, high yielding electric utilities were also a drag on performance
relative to the broad market as earnings outlooks look weak in the competitive
future.
      Factors that drove the market in 1995, have continued to be dominant
throughout fiscal 1996. Specifically, money center and major regional banks have
continued to rise on consolidation, cost-cutting and merger activity. The
industry remains one of the last merger plays in the market today. The
Portfolio's largest exposure is a 14.0% weight in the banks. Telephone stocks
added significant value in the fourth quarter of 1995 and the portfolio's weight
was reduced following the year to a 5.7%. In 1996, the telephone stocks have
experienced poor performance.

8
<PAGE>

      Competition legislation coupled with profit taking in the industry caused
the industry to underperform the broad market. Despite the decline, selection
within the group contributed to the overall portfolio return.
      Tobacco stocks suffered a setback late in the fiscal year 1996 as
litigation was decided against the industry. The result was a 12.5% decline for
the industry leader Philip Morris in the third calendar quarter. The Portfolio's
weight in the industry was reduced to 0.5% as of September 30, 1996 with the
sale of Philip Morris and UST Inc.
      Over the course of 1996, telephone and tobacco exposures were reduced in
favor of energy stocks. Commitments to both international and domestic oil
stocks were increased and the exposure has paid off in the short term with
commodity prices increasing. The group will benefit from supply and demand
pressures over the course of next year.

BALANCED PORTFOLIO
           ADVISER--SEI FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT CORPORATION
            SUB-ADVISER--STI CAPITAL MANAGEMENT, N.A.

OBJECTIVES
      The Balanced Portfolio seeks to achieve total return while preserving
capital by investing in a combination of common stocks and fixed income
securities. By altering the mix of equity and fixed income securities, the
Portfolio seeks to minimize losses during falling equity markets while realizing
strong returns in rising markets.

STRATEGY
      The sub-adviser views equities as the primary source of return in balanced
funds with fixed income instruments primarily providing stability and
diversification. The equity portion of the Portfolio combines a core group of
demonstrated growth stocks with securities selected through business cycle
analysis and sector rotation. This approach tends to result in a portfolio of
large capitalization stocks with price-to-earnings ratios, growth rates and
returns on equity higher than market averages. Fixed income selection attempts
to provide portfolio stability and incremental return by identifying inexpensive
areas of the yield curve and improving corporate credits.

ANALYSIS
      The performance for the Balanced Portfolio was 15.01% for the one-year
period ended September 30, 1996. The Portfolio held approximately 60% of its
assets in the equity markets for the year, with the remaining 40% invested
primarily in the fixed income markets. With this asset allocation, the Portfolio
captured the growth of the equity markets while benefiting from the
diversification available from fixed income securities.

                                                                               9

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FUND PERFORMANCE
===============================================================================
SEI INSTITUTIONAL MANAGED TRUST -- SEPTEMBER 30, 1996


      In a year of significant growth in the stock market and lackluster returns
from bonds, the exposure to equity securities had the most significant impact on
performance. Strong returns were available throughout the year in consumer
non-durables, financial services, technology, aerospace, healthcare and leisure
companies.
      The Federal Reserve successfully engineered a soft landing in the last
twelve months. Inflation rates have remained under control while moderate growth
in GDP has been maintained. Interest rate policy has shifted very little during
this time and the yield curve remained flat during the year. As a result,
duration for the Portfolio remained neutral to the Lehman Govt./Corp. Bond
Index. During the early part of the fiscal year, the Portfolio invested
significantly in mortgage backed fixed income securities. Corporate fixed income
securities were expensive during most of the year and therefore a large portion
of the fund is invested in Treasury securities.

CORE FIXED INCOME PORTFOLIO
              ADVISER--SEI FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT CORPORATION
             SUB-ADVISERS--WESTERN ASSET MANAGEMENT COMPANY
                   FIRSTAR INVESTMENT RESEARCH &
                       MANAGEMENT COMPANY
                   BLACKROCK FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT, INC.

OBJECTIVE
      The Core Fixed Income Portfolio seeks to provide current income by
investing in a diversified portfolio of fixed income securities while also
limiting fluctuations in principal value. The Portfolio invests in every sector
of the fixed income market universe, including Treasuries, agencies,
mortgage-backed issues, investment-grade corporates, and Yankee bonds.

STRATEGY
      The sub-advisers' investment strategies focus on sector rotation, both
among and within sectors, and issue selection. Risk is principally controlled by
explicitly limiting fund interest rate exposure relative to the Lehman Aggregate
Bond Index. The sub-advisers focus on four key areas in determining portfolio
structure: duration weighting, term structure, sector allocation, and issue
selection. While the duration and term structure decision underlie the
implementation process, the advisers primarily concentrate on sector and issue
selection to add value. In addition, the sub-advisers may use futures and
options primarily for tactical hedging purposes and to implement portfolio
strategies more efficiently.

ANALYSIS
      The Portfolio returned 4.51% throughout the fiscal year, slightly
underperforming the Lehman Aggregate Bond Index return of 4.88% over the same
period. Following a rally during the fourth quarter of 1995 which saw yields
fall 50-70 basis points along the coupon curve,

10
<PAGE>

tame inflation data led the Federal Reserve to lower rates in late January.
However, yields ended the first quarter sharply higher as the unexpected surge
in February employment shocked the broad bond market, resulting in the largest
one day price drop in nearly a decade. The short-term Fed Funds and discount
rates remained unchanged throughout the second quarter, as heightened economic
activity had not yet translated into increased inflationary pressures. However,
yields rose across the curve as investors speculated that inflation and a
restrictive Fed policy were on the horizon. The third quarter of 1996 began with
expectations of a July rate increase, but ended with a strong late-September
rally, suggesting no Fed tightening may be needed at all. By quarter-end, yield
levels were relatively unchanged from second quarter levels. Overall, yield
levels for longer maturity issues ended the entire fiscal year 40-50 basis
points higher, resulting in a steepening of the yield curve. The Portfolio's
longer relative duration posture therefore detracted from performance, as did
its barbell yield curve posture.
      Overweights to the higher-yielding corporate and mortgage-backed sectors
benefited performance as both of these sectors strongly outperformed Treasuries
on a duration-adjusted basis. Mortgages, despite lagging during the market rally
in 1995, performed well as higher rates eased prepayment concerns and
yield-seeking investors sought alternatives to the corporate market, where
spreads remained tight. Corporate securities benefited from strong investor
demand and a robust economy, which resulted in strong corporate profits and cash
flows. The Portfolio also benefited from its exposure to BBB credits, which
outperformed the higher credit quality tiers.
      As of February 1, 1996, two additional sub-advisers were added to the SEI
Core Fixed Income Portfolio. BlackRock Financial Management, Inc. was hired for
a mortgage-backed specialty mandate, while Firstar Investment Research &
Management Company was employed to manage a government/corporate account.
Western Asset Management Company continues to manage a broadly diversified
portfolio under the active sector rotation style. This "style-structured"
approach is expected to reduce the interest rate and return volatility of the
Portfolio.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FUND PERFORMANCE
===============================================================================
SEI INSTITUTIONAL MANAGED TRUST -- SEPTEMBER 30, 1996

BOND PORTFOLIO
             ADVISER--SEI FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT CORPORATION
                 SUB-ADVISER--BOATMEN'S TRUST COMPANY

OBJECTIVE
      The Portfolio seeks to provide a high level of current income consistent
with preservation of capital by investing in a diversified portfolio of fixed
income securities. The Portfolio invests in issues of the U.S. Government and
its agencies and investment grade corporate debt. There are no restrictions on
the Portfolio's maturity, but the average maturity is expected to be greater
than ten years.

STRATEGY
      The Portfolio seeks to achieve a high level of total return through active
management based on the sub-adviser's expectations about the economy, interest
rates and inflation. The sub-adviser monitors longer term economic trends,
particularly with respect to monetary policy. The maturity and sector holdings
of the Portfolio will be lengthened and Treasury securities will be favored for
their call protection and high quality.

ANALYSIS
      The Bond Portfolio realized a total return of 4.01% for the year ended
September 30, 1996, underperforming the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index
which returned 4.90%.
      Long-term interest rates rose 40 to 50 basis points over the fiscal year,
while short-term interest rates fell in response to two rate reductions by the
Federal Reserve. The yield on the thirty-year U.S. Treasury bond fell to 5.97%
on December 31, 1995, but signs of economic growth released throughout 1996
drove yields higher. Most alarming to the fixed income markets were the large
increases in non-farm payrolls and decreases in the unemployment rate. These
economic indicators, which often signal future inflation, exceeded market
expectations through 1996 year-to-date.
      The Portfolio's underperformance of the benchmark index was driven by its
duration and yield curve strategies. While the sub-adviser shortened duration
during the summer of 1996, the Portfolio's longer relative duration over most of
the year generated larger price declines than the benchmark. The proceeds from
the sales of long-term Treasury bonds in July were reinvested in
intermediate-term Treasuries to effect the shorter duration, and on September
30, 1996, the Portfolio's duration was 4.8 years. This placed the Portfolio's
duration approximately equal with the duration of the Lehman Brothers Aggregate
Bond Index, which was 4.7 years.
      Entering the fourth quarter, the sub-adviser intends to remain in a
cautious duration position as signs of economic growth are expected to generate
a further rise in interest rates and possible increases in short-term interest
rates by the Federal Reserve. Most worrisome are the strong growth in wages and
employment year-to-date, as well as the high levels of consumer confidence. With
the European and Japanese economies beginning to recover, the sub-adviser
believes strong global growth could create higher levels of inflation and
interest rates. Inflation is expected to rise towards a 3.5% annual rate in the
coming quarters.

HIGH YIELD BOND PORTFOLIO
                 ADVISER--SEI FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT CORPORATION
                        SUB-ADVISER--BEA ASSOCIATES

OBJECTIVE
      The High Yield Bond Portfolio seeks to maximize total return by investing
primarily in a diversified portfolio of higher yielding, lower rated fixed
income securities. The strategy seeks to achieve a high level of total return
through sector rotation and security selection.

STRATEGY
      Portfolio strategy is to identify high yield market sectors through the
analyze of macro-economic, interest rate, industry, and technical factors. Those
companies that are best suited to benefit from the identified trends are then
selected for investment. Risk is controlled through a high level of
diversification, and by performing detailed credit analysis on the companies
considered and purchased.

ANALYSIS
      The Portfolio continued to post solid performance for the 12 months ended
September 30, 1996 returning 15.46% compared to its benchmark, the CS First
Boston High Yield Index, return of 10.77%. At the onset of the year, defensive
issues rallied as signs of a weakening economy surfaced. However, this was short
lived as the economy began to exhibit signs of growth and thus, cyclical issues
gained strength. For the period, the high yield market outpaced the 10-Year
Treasury return, but was not able to match equity returns. Increased demand, as
evidenced by strong cash flows into the high yield market, supported prices amid
record new issuance. In addition, continued merger and acquisition activity,
healthy equity prices, above-average returns, and lower default rates resulted
in an overall decline in risk and risk premiums as well as stepped-up demand.
      The Portfolio's thematic sector approach, coupled with its diligent
security selection, positively impacted total return. In addition, the
Portfolio's high degree of diversification preserved return through more
volatile market periods and as certain industries experienced downturns.
Superior sector and security selection were the greatest contributors to
performance as a consistent overweight to the communications, cable, and gaming
sectors bolstered return.
      Merger and acquisition activity proliferated after favorable legislation
within the communications industry that allowed for the breakdown in competitive
barriers was passed by Congress. This merger and acquisition activity continued
to support prices and thus, the Portfolio was able to take advantage of these
higher prices. Heavy new issuance within the communications industry temporarily
dampened returns, but this

                                                                              13
<PAGE>

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FUND PERFORMANCE
===============================================================================
SEI INSTITUTIONAL MANAGED TRUST -- SEPTEMBER 30, 1996


had little-to-no impact on the Portfolio's return.
      An overweight to the gaming sector strongly contributed to overall
Portfolio performance, and in particular, investment in Atlantic City casino
bonds fueled return. Healthy company fundamentals, an accommodating regulatory
environment, and increased capacity buoyed returns of Atlantic City bonds. Trump
bonds held by the Portfolio led performance for the period. Also supporting
return was the casino industry's immunity from a weaker economy.
      The cable industry continued to benefit from merger and acquisition
activity in the domestic market, and steady growth in the U.K. cable market. In
addition, favorable communications legislation also contributed to positive
performance of this sector. For the most part, the Portfolio maintained an
overweight to this sector, but as issuance increased and secondary issue prices
came under pressure, the Portfolio reduced its overweight.
      The Portfolio's security selection in the consumer manufacturing, and
energy sectors also supported return. Such holdings as Revlon, Kelly Oil and
Mesa Oil positively contributed to performance for the year.

SEI INSTITUTIONAL MANAGED TRUST -- SEPTEMBER 30, 1996



1.    ORGANIZATION
SEI Institutional Managed Trust (the "Trust") is organized as a Massachusetts
Business Trust under a Declaration of Trust dated October 20, 1986.

2.    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as
an open-end investment company with eleven diversified Portfolios (the
"Portfolios"): Large Cap Value, Large Cap Growth, Small Cap Value, Small Cap
Growth, Mid-Cap, Capital Appreciation, Equity Income, Balanced, Core Fixed
Income, Bond, and High Yield Bond. The Trust is registered to offer Class A
shares of the Large Cap Value, Large Cap Growth, Small Cap Value, Small Cap
Growth, Mid-Cap, Capital Appreciation, Equity Income, Balanced, Core Fixed
Income, Bond, and High Yield Bond Portfolios and Class D shares of the Small Cap
Growth Portfolio. The Funds' prospectus provides a description of each Fund's
investment objective, policies, and strategies. The following is a summary of
the significant accounting policies followed by the Trust.
     SECURITY VALUATION--Investments in equity securities which are traded on a
national securities exchange (or reported on NASDAQ national market system) are
stated at the last quoted sales price if readily available for such equity
securities on each business day; other equity securities traded in the
over-the-counter market and listed equity securities for which no sale was
reported on that date are stated at the last quoted bid price. Debt obligations
with remaining maturities in excess of sixty days are valued at the most
recently quoted bid price. Debt obligations with remaining maturities of sixty
days or less are valued at their amortized cost.
     FEDERAL INCOME TAXES--It is each Portfolio's intention to qualify as a
regulated investment company for Federal income tax purposes and distribute all
of its taxable income (including net capital gains). Accordingly, no provision
for Federal income taxes is required.
     NET ASSET VALUE PER SHARE--Net asset value per share is calculated on a
daily basis by dividing the assets of each Portfolio less its liabilities by the
number of outstanding shares of the Portfolio.
     REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS--Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase
agreements are held by each Portfolio's custodian bank until maturity of the
repurchase agreement. The Portfolios also invest in tri-party repurchase
agreements. Securities held as collateral for tri-party repurchase agreements
are maintained by the broker's custodian bank in a segregated account until
maturity of the repurchase agreement. Provisions of the repurchase agreement and
procedures adopted by the Manager and the Advisers of the Trust ensure that the
market value of the collateral, including accrued interest thereon, is
sufficient in the event of default by the counterparty. If the counterparty
defaults and the value of the collateral declines or if the counterparty enters
into an insolvency proceeding, realization of the collateral by the Portfolios
may be delayed or limited.
     DISCOUNT AND PREMIUM AMORTIZATION--All amortization is calculated using the
effective interest method over the holding period of the security. Amortization
of premiums and discounts is included in interest income.
     EXPENSES--Expenses that are directly related to one of the Portfolios are
charged directly to that Portfolio. Other operating expenses of the Portfolios
are prorated to the Portfolios on the basis of relative net assets.
     CLASSES--Class-specific expenses are borne by that class of shares. Income,
realized and unrealized gains/losses and non class-specific expenses are
allocated to the respective classes on the basis of relative daily net assets.
     FUTURES CONTRACTS--The Large Cap Growth, Large Cap Value, Small Cap Value,
Small Cap Growth, Capital Appreciation and Equity Income Portfolios utilized S&P
500 Index futures contracts and the Core Fixed Income Portfolio utilized U.S. 
Long Bond futures contracts during the year ended September 30, 1996. The 
Portfolio's investment in S&P 500 Index futures contracts is designed to enable 
the Portfolios to more closely approximate the performance of their benchmark 
indices. The Core Fixed Income Portfolio's use of futures contracts is
primarily for tactical hedging purposes. Initial margin deposits of cash or
securities are made upon entering into futures contracts. The contracts are
marked to market daily and the resulting changes in value are accounted for as
unrealized

59
<PAGE>

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================

SEI INSTITUTIONAL MANAGED TRUST -- SEPTEMBER 30, 1996


gains and losses. Variation margin payments are paid or received, depending upon
whether unrealized losses or gains are incurred. When the contract is closed,
the Portfolio records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between
the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the amount invested
in the contract.
     Risks related to futures contracts include the possibility that there may
not be a liquid market for the contracts, that changes in the values of the
contract may not directly correlate with changes in the values of the underlying
securities, and that the counterparty to a contract may default on its 
obligation to perform. Futures contracts involve risk of loss in excess of 
the amounts recognized in the Statement of Net Assets to the extent of 
contract amounts.
     DETERMINATION, DISCLOSURE AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION OF INCOME
AND CAPITAL GAIN--Effective October 1, 1993, the Fund adopted Statement of
Position 93-2: Determination, Disclosure, and Financial Statement Presentation
of Income, Capital Gain, and Return of Capital Distributions by Investment
Companies. Based on this Statement of Position, the Large Cap Value Portfolio,
Large Cap Growth Portfolio, and Small Cap Growth Portfolio reclassified
$126,000, $30,000, and $8,000, respectively, from undistributed net realized
gain to paid-in capital. Net investment income, net realized gains, and net
assets were not affected by these reclassifications.
     For the year ended September 30, 1996, the Large Cap Value Portfolio, Large
Cap Growth Portfolio, Small Cap Value Portfolio, Small Cap Growth Portfolio and
Core Fixed Income Portfolio transferred securities to shareholders in order to
meet fund share redemptions. This security transfer resulted in non-taxable
realized gains and losses to the Portfolios of $19,956,000, $19,428,000,
$2,887,000, $6,923,000, and ($2,416,000), respectively, which is included in
paid-in capital, a component of equity.
     STRUCTURED NOTES AND INDEXED NOTES--The Core Fixed Income Portfolio may
invest in structured notes and indexed notes whose values are linked either
directly or inversely to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest
rates, indices, or other reference instruments. The values of these instruments
may be more volatile than the rates, indices or instruments to which they refer,
but any loss is limited to the amount of the original investment.
     OTHER--Security transactions are recorded on the trade date of the security
purchase or sale. Cost used in determining net realized capital gains and losses
on the sale of securities are those of the specific securities sold. Dividend
income is recognized on the ex-dividend date, and interest income is recognized
using the accrual basis of accounting.

3.    MANAGEMENT, INVESTMENT ADVISORY, AND DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENTS

management agreement (the "Agreement") dated January 22, 1987. Under this

61
<PAGE>

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================

SEI INSTITUTIONAL MANAGED TRUST -- SEPTEMBER 30, 1996


net assets attributable to Class A shares will be paid to the Distributor. Prior
to April 15, 1996, SEI Financial Services Company acted as the distributor of
shares of the Trust under distribution plans which provided for the Trust to
reimburse the Distributor for certain distribution-related expenses incurred by
the Distributor. Such expenses could not exceed .30% of the average daily net
assets of a Portfolio, provided the expenses were permissable as to both type
and amount under a budget approved and monitored by the Board of Trustees.
     The Trust has adopted a distribution plan for its Class D shares (the
"Class D Plan") pursuant to which a 12b-1 fee of up to .30% of the average daily
net assets attributable to the Class D shares will be paid to the Distributor.
This payment may be used to compensate financial institutions that provide
distribution-related services to their customers. Under both the Class A Plan
and the Class D Plan, the Distributor may retain as profit any difference
between the fee it receives and the amount it pays to third parties.
     The Distribution Agreement between the Distributor and the Trust provides
that the Distributor may receive compensation on portfolio transactions effected
for the Trust in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, it is expected that portfolio transactions may
result in brokerage commissions being paid to the Distributor. The SEC rules
require that such commissions not exceed usual and customary commissions.

4.    ORGANIZATIONAL COSTS AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

amortized over sixty months commencing with operations. In the event any of the
initial shares are redeemed by any holder thereof during the period that the
Trust is amortizing its organizational costs, the redemption proceeds payable to
the holder thereof by the Trust will be reduced by the unamortized
organizational costs in the same ratio as the number of initial shares
outstanding at the time of the redemption.
     Certain officers and/or trustees of the Trust are also officers of the
Manager. The Trust pays each unaffiliated Trustee an annual fee for attendance
of quarterly, interim and committee meetings. Compensation of officers and
affiliated Trustees of the Trust is paid by the Manager.
     Each of the Portfolios also used the Distributor as an agent in placing
repurchase agreements. For this service the Distributor retains a portion of the
interest earned as a commission. Such commissions for repurchase agreements
placed during the period ended September 30, 1996 were nominal in the aggregate.
