The  following  supplements  the currently  effective  Prospectus of each of the
listed funds:

On December  22,  1997,  Zurich  Insurance  Company  ("Zurich")  entered into an
agreement with B.A.T Industries p.l.c. ("B.A.T") pursuant to which the financial
services   businesses  of  B.A.T  will  be  combined  with  Zurich's  businesses
(including Zurich's 70% interest in Scudder Kemper  Investments,  Inc. ("Scudder
Kemper")) to form a new global insurance and financial services company known as
Zurich Financial Services.  After the transaction is completed, by way of a dual
holding company  structure,  current Zurich  shareholders will own approximately
57% of  the  new  organization,  with  the  balance  owned  by  B.A.T's  current
shareholders. 

The  transaction  is  expected  to  close in the  third  quarter  of 1998.  Upon
consummation of the transaction,  each Fund's  investment  management  agreement
with Scudder  Kemper will be deemed to have been assigned and,  therefore,  will
terminate.  The Board has approved new  investment  management  agreements  with
Scudder  Kemper,  which are  substantially  identical to the current  investment
management agreements,  except for the dates of execution and termination.  Each
new investment  management agreement is to become effective upon the termination
of the current investment management agreement.  The Board will seek shareholder
approval  of  the  new  investment   management   agreements   through  a  proxy
solicitation that is currently scheduled to conclude in mid-December.
