General American Capital Company S & P 500 Index Fund
Management Discussion
On the strength of the large capitalization segment of the market, the S&P
500 Index Fund earned a net return of 17.45 percent in the first half of
1998. Despite ongoing concerns over the economic crisis in Asia and the
threat of a meaningful slowdown in earnings growth, investors poured money
into the largest growth stocks. Meanwhile, large cap value stocks and
virtually all mid-cap and small-cap stocks were neglected in the rallies and
suffered from periodic selloffs. Much of the strength in the equity markets
came from such segments as pharmaceuticals, airlines, large retailers and
select technology issues. These segments have provided the dependable
earnings growth the market demands. Energy, cyclical technology and
commodity-related businesses continued to struggle. An underlying theme
throughout the period was consolidation, highlighted by several blockbuster
bank mergers (Citicorp/Travelers and NationsBank/BankAmerica) and the AT & T
purchase of Telecommunications, Inc.

reduce the total return figures for all periods shown.
<F3> Computed on an annualized basis.

of average net assets in equity securities. Computation represents total
commissions paid divided by the sum of shares purchased and sold for which
commissions were charged.

General American Capital Company Money Market Fund
Management Discussion
This fund produced a net return of 2.81 percent in the first six months of
the year as the trend of "benign inflation" seen throughout 1997 continued.
Short-term interest rates declined approximately 25 basis points between
January and the end of June. The absence of significant inflation, general
slowing in the growth of Gross Domestic Product and continued turmoil across
many of the Asian markets convinced the Federal Reserve to maintain the
status quo on monetary policy. That is likely to continue because officials
view financial conditions as "accommodative." Unless the Federal Reserve
takes action, rates are likely to remain within a narrow range in the coming
months.

GENERAL AMERICAN CAPITAL COMPANY BOND INDEX FUND
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION
For the first half of 1998, the Bond Index Fund generated a net return of
3.98 percent. Rates were largely unchanged in the first quarter and declined
somewhat in the second quarter, primarily in the intermediate and long-term
portions of the bond yield curve. The rate decline resulted from both
positive economic indicators and a flight to quality. International
investors continued to buy U.S. Treasury issues as a safe haven from shaky
markets around the world. A strong U.S. dollar should help continue that
trend. With inflation tame and the economy slowing slightly, there is little
incentive for the Fed to raise interest rates.

Notes:
<F1> Components are computed and accumulated on a daily basis.
<F2> The total return information shown in this table does not reflect
expenses that apply to the separate accounts investing in the Fund or to the
insurance or variable annuity contracts. Inclusion of these charges would
reduce the total return figures for all periods shown.
<F3> Computed on an annualized basis.
<F*>Name and investment objective changed from Intermediate Bond Fund on October
1, 1992. The Investment advisor charges changed from .375 percent to .250
percent of the average daily value of the net assets on October 1, 1992. The
objective of the Bond Index Fund is to provide a rate of return that reflects
the performance of the publicly traded bond market as a whole.

GENERAL AMERICAN CAPITAL COMPANY MANAGED EQUITY FUND
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION
This fund produced a net return of 9.37 percent in the first six months of
1998, with a fairly sedate second quarter following on the heels of an
excellent first quarter. Large growth stocks showed the most strength as the
market continued to focus on growth and liquidity and frown on value
investing, which has suffered for several consecutive quarters. The weakest
sectors in the portfolio during the period were basic materials, energy and
cyclical technology. The best performing sectors, meanwhile, were discount
retailers, financial services and pharmaceuticals

reduce the total return figures for all periods shown.
<F3> Computed on an annualized basis.
<F4> Computed only for funds that invest greater than 10 percent of the value
of average net assets in equity securities. Computation represents total
commissions paid divided by the sum of shares purchased and sold for which
commissions were charged.

$10 million and less than $30 million and .25 percent on the balance in
excess of $30 million.

GENERAL AMERICAN CAPITAL COMPANY ASSET ALLOCATION FUND
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION
For the first six months of the year, this fund's net return was 9.59
percent, compared to the benchmark Lipper flexible Portfolio funds average of
9.7 percent. As was the case in General American Capital Company's
equity-based funds, equity returns in the Asset Allocation fund were stronger
in the first quarter than in the second. Much of the strength was defined by
a surprisingly small number of large capitalization stocks in such sectors as
pharmaceuticals, large value-oriented retailers, money center banks and
select telecommunications companies; commodity-related businesses, such as in
energy, struggled. Bonds, meanwhile, turned in a steady performance with a
modest rally in the longer maturities. At the end of the second quarter, the
fund maintained an asset mix of 71 percent stocks, 26 percent bonds, and 3
percent cash.

General American Capital Company International Index Fund
Management Discussion
This fund's investment objective is to obtain results that parallel the price
and yield performance of the benchmark Morgan Stanley Capital International
Europe, Australia and Far East Index (the "EAFE Index"), and it measured up
to that standard in the first half of 1998, earning a net return of 15.81
percent, compared to the EAFE Index's 16.1 percent. The fund trailed its
benchmark at the end of the first quarter, partly due to a modest cash
position, but rebounded well in the second quarter on the strength of its
European holdings, with Europe's economy running relatively strong and
somewhat resembling the U.S. economy. Global markets in general produced
mixed results in the second quarter. The Asian markets fell sharply after
enjoying a robust first quarter, as it appeared more likely the Asian
economic crisis would not end soon.

<F2> Total return is not annualized for the eleven months ended December 31,
1993. The total return information shown in this table does not reflect
expenses that apply to the separate accounts investing in the Fund or to the
insurance or variable annuity contracts. Inclusion of these charges would
reduce the total return figures for all periods shown.
<F3> Computed on an annualized basis.
<F4> Computed only for funds that invest greater than 10 percent of the value
of average net assets in equity securities. Computation represents total
commissions paid divided by the sum of shares purchased and sold for which
commissions were charged.
<F*> Name and investment objective changed from the International Equity Fund on
January 1, 1997. The investment advisor charges changed from .70% to .50% on
the first $10 million of the average daily value of the net assets on
January 1, 1997. The fund's investment advisor became Conning Asset
Management on January 1, 1997. The objective of the International Index Fund
is to obtain investment results that parallel the price and yield
performance of publicly traded common stocks in the EAFE Index.
<F**>Also includes net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency
conversions.

GENERAL AMERICAN CAPITAL COMPANY MID-CAP EQUITY FUND
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION
A difficult second quarter pulled down this fund's net return to 4.66 percent
for the first half of 1998. The benchmark S&P 400 Mid-Cap Index returned 8.6
percent for the period. Returns in the broader market failed to keep pace
with the large-cap stocks, and the fund lost ground with the broad market
sell-off in mid-April. Many of the best-performing stocks in the portfolio
experienced dramatic reversals when the market feared the momentum of
earnings growth might slow. Energy, cyclical technology and other
commodity-based businesses were the weakest.

<F2> Total return is not annualized for the eleven months ended December 31,
1993. The total return information shown in this table does not reflect
expenses that apply to the separate accounts investing in the Fund or to the
insurance or variable annuity contracts. Inclusion of these charges would
reduce the total return figures for all periods shown.
<F3> Computed on an annualized basis.
<F4> Computed only for funds that invest greater than 10 percent of the value
of average net assets in equity securities. Computation represents total
commissions paid divided by the sum of shares purchased and sold for which
commissions were charged.
<F*> Name and investment objective changed from the Special Equity Fund
effective January 1, 1997. The investment advisor changed to Conning Asset
Management. The investment objective is long term capital appreciation, which
it pursues through investment primarily in common stocks of US - based
publicly traded companies with medium market capitalizations.

GENERAL AMERICAN CAPITAL COMPANY SMALL-CAP EQUITY FUND
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION
The Small-Cap Equity Fund uses as its proxy the smallest 20 percent of
companies based on capitalization size, that are listed on the New York Stock
Exchange. The fund seeks to provide a rate of return corresponding to the
performance of the common stock of small companies, as represented by the
fund's benchmark index, the Russell 2000. The fund modestly outperformed the
index in both the first and second quarters, reaching mid-year with at
year-to-date net return of 5.4 percent compared to the index's 4.9 percent.
Negative returns in the second quarter offset the gains made at the beginning
of the year when small-cap stocks staged a modest first quarter rally.
Small-cap stocks have failed to keep pace with the large-cap equities as
investors continue to focus on the liquidity and earnings predictability of
the larger-cap, blue chip stocks. Two sectors that have struggled the most
in small-cap stocks are emerging-growth and technology.

GENERAL AMERICAN CAPITAL COMPANY
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1998
Note 1-Organization
General American Capital Company (the Company), commenced operations on
October 1, 1987, and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940
as amended, as an open-end diversified management investment company.
The Company offers to its shareholders eight separate investment funds (the
Funds) which operate as distinct investment vehicles. These are the S & P
500 Index Fund, Money Market Fund, Bond Index Fund, Managed Equity Fund,
Asset Allocation Fund, International Index Fund, Mid-Cap Equity Fund and
Small-Cap Equity Fund. The name of the Mid-Cap Equity Fund and the
International Index Fund was changed from the Special Equity Fund and the
International Equity Fund, respectively. The International Index and Mid-Cap
Equity Funds began operations on February 16, 1993. The Small-Cap Equity
Fund began operations on May 1, 1997. As of June 30, 1998, the Company sells
its shares to separate accounts established by General American Life
Insurance Company (General American), RGA Reinsurance Company (RGA) a wholly
owned subsidiary of Reinsurance Group of America, Inc., which is a majority
owned subsidiary of General American, Security Equity Life Insurance Company
(Security Equity) a wholly owned subsidiary of General American Life
Insurance Company and Cova Financial Services Life Insurance Company (Cova) a
wholly owned subsidiary of General American Life Insurance Company.
Note 2-Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Company in the preparation of financial statements. The policies are in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
A. Investments:
Common stocks of domestic companies are valued based on the closing
sale price on the New York Stock Exchange for securities traded on that
exchange, and for securities not so traded, at the last bid price of
over-the-counter market quotations as of the close of business on June
30. Common stocks of foreign companies are valued based on the closing
sale price on the primary exchange for which the security is listed.
The market values for bonds and short term securities with maturities
of 60 days or more at date of valuation are determined daily by an
independent pricing service based on current market conditions. Short
term securities with maturities of less than 60 days at date of
valuation are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market
value.
B. Repurchase Agreements:
Short-term investments include repurchase agreements with a member bank
of the Federal Reserve System or a primary dealer in U.S. Government
securities. Under such agreements, the bank or primary dealer agrees
to repurchase the underlying U.S. Government securities at a mutually
agreed upon time and price.
C. Foreign Currency Translations:
Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated each business day into U.S. dollars based
upon the closing rate of exchange. Foreign currency amounts related to
the purchase or sale of securities and income and expenses are
translated into U.S. dollars based upon the prevailing exchange rate on
the respective dates of the transactions.
In accordance with Statement of Position (SOP) 93-4: Foreign Currency
Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation for Investment
Companies, reported net realized gains or losses from foreign currency
transactions arise from sales of portfolio securities and the
difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign
withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. dollar
equivalent actually received or paid. Reported net unrealized gains
and losses from foreign currency transactions arise from changes in the
value of assets and liabilities, including investments in securities at
December 31, resulting from changes in the exchange rate.
D. Derivative Financial Instruments:
A derivative financial instrument in very general terms refers to a
security whose value is "derived" from the value of an underlying
asset, reference rate or index.
The Capital Company has a variety of reasons to use derivative
instruments, such as to attempt to protect the Company against possible
changes in the market value of its portfolio and to manage the
portfolio's effective yield, maturity and duration. All of the
Company's portfolio holdings, including derivative instruments, are
marked to market each day with the change in value reflected in the
unrealized appreciation/depreciation on securities. Upon disposition,
a realized gain or loss is recognized accordingly, except when taking
delivery of a security underlying a futures contract. In these
instances the recognition of gain or loss is postponed until the
disposal of the security underlying the futures contract. The Capital
Company's utilization of derivative financial instruments is
substantially limited to the use of forward exchange contracts to hedge
foreign currency transactions, interest rate futures contracts to
manage interest rate risk and S&P 500 Index futures contracts to manage
performance.
Forward Foreign Currency Contracts:
The International Index Fund enters into forward exchange contracts to
hedge foreign currency transactions and not to engage in currency
speculation. The Fund's forward exchange contracts do not subject the
company to risk from exchange rate movements
53
<PAGE> 52
because gains and losses on such contracts offset losses and gains,
respectively, on the assets being hedged. At June 30, the company had no
open foreign currency exchange contracts that obligate it to receive or
deliver currency at specified future dates. The forward exchange
contracts generally require the company to exchange U.S. dollars for
foreign currencies at maturity, at rates agreed to at inception of the
contracts. The U.S. dollar value of foreign currency underlying all
contractual commitments held by the fund and the resulting unrealized
appreciation or depreciation are determined using foreign currency
exchange rates from an independent pricing service. If the
counterparties to the exchange contracts (primarily AA rated
international banks) do not fulfill their obligations to deliver the
contracted currencies, the company could be at risk for any currency
related fluctuations.
Futures Contracts:
A futures contract is an agreement involving the delivery of a
particular asset on a specified future date at an agreed upon price.
The Company generally invests in futures on U. S. Treasury Bonds and
the S&P 500 Index and typically closes the contract prior to the
delivery date. Upon entering into futures contracts, the Company
maintains, in a segregated account with a custodian, securities with a
value equal to its obligation under the futures contracts. During the
period the futures contract is open, payments are received from or made
to the custodian based upon changes in the value of the contract (the
variation margin). U. S. Treasury Bond futures contracts are entered
into in the Asset Allocation Fund to hedge market price risks of fixed-
rate bonds. S&P 500 Index futures contracts are entered into in the
S&P 500 Index Fund to manage and more closely track the performance of
the S&P 500 Index.
The S&P 500 Fund's transactions in futures contracts for the six months
ended June 30, 1998, were as follows:
<TABLE>

<S> <C>
Outstanding at December 31, 1997 22
Futures Opened 0
Futures Closed (22)
---
Outstanding at June 30, 1998 0
</TABLE>
The Company had no open U. S. Treasury Bond futures contracts at June
30, 1998 and had no U. S. Treasury Bond futures transactions for the
six months ended June 30, 1998.
E. Investment Transactions and Related Investment Income:
Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis (date the
order to buy or sell is executed). Dividends are recognized as income
on the ex-dividend date while interest income and amortization of
premium and discount are recorded on an accrual basis.
F. Federal Income Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders:
No provision for Federal income taxes is necessary because each Fund
qualifies as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the
Internal Revenue Code and intends to distribute each year substantially
all of its net investment income and realized gains to its
shareholders. At June 30, 1998, the Bond Index Fund had an accumulated
capital loss carryforward for tax purposes of $1,788,097. Of this
amount, $1,605,747 and $182,350 will expire on December 31, 2002, and
2003 respectively.
G. Consent Dividends:
The Funds follow the accounting practice known as consent dividending,
whereby substantially all of its net investment income and realized
gains are treated as being distributed daily to their shareholders and
are immediately reinvested in that Fund.
H. Use of Estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increase
and decrease in net assets from operations during the period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
Note 3-Management and Administrative Fees
The Company has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with Conning
Asset Management Company (Investment Advisor) with respect to all of its
Funds. Certain officers and directors of the Company are also officers and
directors of the Investment Advisor. For its services to the Funds, the
Investment Advisor charges a fee, which is accrued daily against each Fund.
The fees charged each Fund, stated as an annual percentage of the average
daily value of the net assets, are:
S & P 500 Index Fund .250 Percent
Money Market Fund .125 Percent
Bond Index Fund . 250 Percent
Asset Allocation Fund . 500 Percent
Small-Cap Equity . 250 Percent
54
<PAGE> 53
The fee (percentage effective March 1, 1997) charged the Managed Equity Fund
is stated as a series of annual percentages of the average daily net assets
of that Fund. The percentages decrease with respect to assets of the Fund
above certain amounts as follows:

All operational expenses of the Company are paid by General American, which
charges administrative fees to each Fund in return. Certain officers and
directors of the Company are also officers and directors of General American,
RGA, Security Equity and Cova.
The administrative expenses are charged at an annual rate based on the
average daily value of the net assets in each Fund, as follows:
S & P 500 Index Fund .05 Percent
Money Market Fund .08 Percent
Bond Index Fund .05 Percent
Managed Equity Fund .10 Percent
Asset Allocation Fund .10 Percent
International Index Fund .30 Percent
Mid-Cap Equity Fund .10 Percent
Small-Cap Equity Fund .05 Percent
Note 4 - Investment Objectives and Manager Changes
Effective January 1, 1997, the International Equity Fund became the
International Index Fund. The investment objective of the International
Index Fund is to obtain investment results that parallel the price and yield
performance of publicly traded common stocks in the Morgan Stanley Capital
International Europe, Australia, and Far East Index ("EAFE Index"). The
portfolio manager of the International Index Fund is Conning Asset
Management. The total investment advisor fees were reduced as a result of
the changes.
Effective January 1, 1997, the Special Equity Fund became the Mid-Cap Equity
Fund. The investment objective of the Mid-Cap Equity Fund is to seek
sustained growth of capital by investing primarily in common stocks of United
States-based publicly traded companies with "medium market capitalizations."
"Medium market capitalization companies" are those whose market capitalization
falls within the range of the S&P Mid-Cap 400 at the time of the Fund's
investment. The portfolio manager of Mid-Cap Equity Fund is Conning Asset
Management Company and the total management fee rate remains unchanged from
that of the Special Equity Fund.
Effective March 1, 1997, the portfolio manager for the Managed Equity Fund
became Conning Asset Management Company. The total investment advisor charges
were reduced due to this change.
The Small-Cap Equity Fund commenced operations on May 1, 1997 subsequent to a
transfer of assets from General American Life Insurance Company Separate
Account No. 20, which had similar investment objectives, policies, and
limitations, in exchange for shares of the Small-Cap Equity Fund. Separate
Account No. 20 was not registered under the Registered Investment Company Act
of 1940 and has a different fee and expense structure than the Small-Cap
Equity Fund. While Separate Account No. 20 continues to exist, its assets
now consist solely of shares of the Small-Cap Equity Fund. The Small-Cap
Equity Fund's portfolio of investments on May 1, 1997 was the same as the
portfolio of Separate Account No. 20 immediately prior to the transfer.
Separate accounts which invested in Separate Account No. 20 prior to the
transfer now invest directly in the Small-Cap Equity Fund. The Small-Cap
Equity Fund seeks to provide a rate of return that corresponds to the
performance of the common stock of small companies, while incurring a level
of risk that is generally equal to the risks associated with small company
common stock. The Fund attempts to duplicate the performance of the smallest
20% of companies, based on capitalization size, that are based in the United
States and listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
