Dear Fellow Shareholders:
1995 was a fabulous year for owners of long term financial assets. Although we
expected 1995 to be good, the actual results exceeded expectations. All of the
Chubb funds experienced excellent results, again validating our strategy of
maximizing return over the long term. While we expect that the favorable
investment environment will continue, this is not the time to rejoice, ignore
long term goals or take more risk just because last year was so good. All of us
are influenced by two emotions-fear and greed. Successful investors keep these
under control. We suggest that you stay with your long term plan.
Over the course of 1996 we expect the Federal Reserve to ease monetary policy by
reducing short term interest rates. This action should positively influence
common stock valuation, but it will be tempered by slower earnings growth as the
business cycle matures. Bonds may be more positively influenced. Inflation is
low and assets in Certificate of Deposits and money market funds may migrate to
longer maturity to offset the yield decline, pushing bond prices up.
In September, we added two new funds to our family and I am happy to report that
both are off to an excellent start. The first, the Capital Appreciation Fund, is
oriented toward mid-capitalization equity securities where we believe there is
significant value and growth potential. The second, the Global Income Fund, will
enable investors to diversify assets internationally and take advantage of
higher interest rates available outside the United States. Both of these funds
are managed by individuals with extensive investment experience and expertise.
The co-manager of the Global Income Fund is located in London, one of the
world's most important financial centers. This fund is unique in that the
investment managers are able to utilize the extensive worldwide operating and
intelligence network of The Chubb Corporation, an advantage not available to
many other global investors.
Late last year we initiated the beginnings of an additional distribution system
for the funds, for the first time going outside of the Chubb Securities network.
Given the excellent investment record and positive publicity received over the
past several years, reception has been positive.
Looking forward, our investment strategy remains the same; we plan to invest
your money to maximize return over the long term in accordance with the Fund's
prospectus. The two new funds will be managed in exactly the same fashion. All
of us at Chubb Investment Funds wish you a healthy and prosperous 1996, and if
you have any suggestions please do not hesitate to contact us.
Sincerely,
/s/ Michael O'Reilly

CHUBB MONEY MARKET FUND
by Thomas J. Swartz, III
Chubb Asset Managers, Inc.
The primary purpose of the Fund is to provide an investment vehicle that
minimizes credit quality risk and net asset fluctuations. The Fund continues to
meet this objective by investing in the highest quality short-term investment
vehicles, U.S. Government Securities. Given the narrow yield differential
between U.S. Government Securities and lesser quality alternative investments
such as commercial paper, we continue to feel it is prudent to invest
exclusively in government securities.
The U.S. economy during 1995 experienced steady but modest growth and subdued
inflation. Tightening by the Federal Reserve in early 1995 was followed by rate
cuts in July and December, resulting in a Fed Funds rate which ended the year
unchanged from the level at the start of 1995.
We expect economic growth during 1996 to be close to the Federal Reserve's
target range of 2.5%, accompanied by inflation which remains below 3%. Given
this scenario, the Federal Reserve may have latitude to reduce short-term rates
before real rates become overly stimulative to the economy. The Fund continues
to be an attractive investment alternative, given the still high short-term
interest rates relative to long-term bond yields, continued low consumer price
inflation, and stable net asset values.

After one of the worst performance years on record for the bond market in 1994,
last year turned out to be one of the best performance years on record. After
tightening monetary policy six times during 1994, the Federal Reserve tightened
for the final time of this economic cycle in February of 1995. It became clear
not long after that final move to higher rates that the economic expansion, that
had been fueled by the massive monetary easing from 1991 through 1993, was
running out of momentum. The combination of Federal Reserve action during 1994,
expectations of cyclical pressures to higher inflation and the unwinding of
leveraged yield curve arbitrage trades (Orange County, etc.), helped to push
interest rates higher in 1994 than fundamentals warranted. During 1995 GDP
growth slowed from 3.5% to approximately 2.1%, industrial production growth
slowed from 5.8% to 3.3%, average monthly non-farm payroll growth slowed from
294,000/month to 141,000/month and inflation as measured by the overstated
consumer price index rose marginally from 2.6% to 2.8%. This fundamentally
favorable economic environment allowed the Federal Reserve to reverse the course
of monetary policy from a tightening to an easing mode. All of the upward
interest rate bias that had been built into the yield curve during 1994 was
completely unwound during 1995. The result was significant capital appreciation
in bond funds as interest rates plunged.
For 1995, the Chubb U.S. Government Securities Fund achieved an annual total
return of 17.5% (excluding sales loads). A combination of call protected
Treasury and higher yielding mortgage-backed securities gave us the portfolio
balance that we seek to have our targeted intermediate maturity profile. We once
again outperformed both the average return for the Lipper General U.S.
Government and Intermediate U.S. Government bond categories.
We expect that 1996 will be another good year for bond funds although not as
good as the exceptional 1995. The slow economic environment along with low
inflation and progress on the fiscal policy front will allow the Federal Reserve
to continue on their monetary easing path. The yield curve has priced in further
easing so we suspect that the capital appreciation potential in the bond market
is less than that of last year. We will more likely structure the portfolio with
a somewhat more defensive posture stressing yield spread product such as slight
premium mortgage-backed securities. Given our outlook for moderately falling
intermediate term yields, this strategy should prove rewarding for our
investors.

IN THE TOTAL RETURN FUND, THE S&P 500 INDEX AND

Commencement of operations December 1, 1987. Past performance is not
predictive of future performance.
This graph compares an initial $10,000 investment made in the Chubb Total
Return Fund (the "Fund") at its inception with a similar investment in the
S&P 500 Index and the Lipper Balanced Fund Index. For the purpose of this
graph and the accompanying table, the average annual total return for the
Fund reflects all recurring expenses (advisory fees, account fees) and a
maximum 5% sales load, and includes the reinvestment of all dividends and
distributions.

Nineteen ninety five was truly an outstanding year for the U.S. securities
markets. Capitalizing on this environment, the Chubb Total Return Fund rose
30.13% (excluding sales loads) in 1995. The following were the main contributing
factors to the widespread appreciation in financial assets.
- - The U.S. economy continued to boast the best of all worlds; moderate economic
growth and modest inflation.
- - U.S. interest rates fell most of the year and the Federal Reserve cut interest
rates moderately in both July and December of last year.
- - Corporate profits continued to exceed Wall Street's expectations while rising
at double digit rates for most of the year.

<PAGE> 7
- - Equity mutual funds continued to experience record levels of cash inflows.
- - Merger and acquisition activity was strong throughout the year.
No matter how you assess the U.S. stock market advance last year the most
impressive part of the surge was the breadth of the advance and its historical
perspective. Much attention was showered on the Dow's breakthrough of two
millenniums (4000 and 5000) but the good fortune spread to many of the other
broad market averages. For instance, the NASDAQ market rose 41.12%, Russell 2000
28.45%, and the S&P 500 37.45%. For stock market historians, 1995 was the best
year for U.S. stocks since 1958, the second 30 percent plus year this decade
(30.55% in 1991) and the sixth best year since 1926. Likewise, bond market
returns were excellent, although it could not keep up with soaring stock prices.
The average return for the Lehman Brothers Government Bond Index was 18.34% in
1995.
The huge runup in stock prices triggered many opportunistic changes in our
portfolio. On the sell side we eliminated the following positions last year:
Anheuser-Busch, Baxter, Boeing, Polaroid, Telemex, and Toll Bros. We were also
the beneficiary of three takeovers last year: E-Systems, Fleet Mortgage, and
First Federal of Michigan. The following stock positions were initiated in 1995:
Archer-Daniels-Midland, Atlantic Richfield, Borg-Warner, Canadian Pacific,
Federal Express, Hanson, Asian Pulp & Paper, and YPF Sociedad Anonima (please
refer to the detailed schedule of investments on pages 3 and 4). As always, we
employed the same disciplined long-term approach for our stock selection. We
invested in securities whose price/earnings ratios were less than that of the
S&P 500, although our analysis showed they had higher prospective earnings
growth rates. Conversely, we sold those stocks that no longer met these
investment standards. Our bond investments continued to favor U.S. Treasury
securities.
We are cautiously optimistic regarding the overall outlook for 1996. On the
positive side, economic growth is slowing, but modestly positive, while
inflation is still subdued. Interest rates in this environment should head lower
and cash continues to pour into the stock market. If short-term interest rates
decline as we expect, bond funds will benefit from money moving from money
market funds. From an historical vantage point, stocks have advanced in 10 of
the last 12 presidential election years. The end result should be further
advances in stock and bond prices, but much slower and narrower in scope than
last year. This will require even more focus on individual stock selection and
caution regarding credit quality.
We believe our disciplined value approach should continue to reward our
shareholders over the long-term.

CHUBB TAX-EXEMPT FUND

Chubb Asset Managers, Inc.
COMPARISON OF CHANGE IN VALUE OF $10,000 INVESTMENT IN THE TAX-EXEMPT FUND
AND THE LEHMAN BROTHERS MUNICIPAL BOND INDEX
[GRAPHIC -- CUSTOMER WILL SUPPLY DESCRIPTION]
Commencement of operations December 1, 1987. Past performance is not
predictive of future performance.
This graph compares an initial $10,000 investment made in the Chubb Tax-
Exempt Fund (the "Fund") made at its inception with a similar investment in
the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index. For the purposes of this graph
and the accompanying table, the average annual total return for the Fund
reflects all recurring expenses (advisory fees, account fees) and a maximum
3% sales load, and includes the reinvestment of all dividends and
distributions.
THE LEHMAN BROTHERS MUNICIPAL BOND INDEX IS AN UNMANAGED INDEX AND INCLUDES
THE REINVESTMENT OF ALL DIVIDENDS, BUT DOES NOT REFLECT THE PAYMENT OF
TRANSACTION COSTS, ADVISORY FEES OR EXPENSES THAT ARE ASSOCIATED WITH AN
INVESTMENT IN THE FUND.
Steady but modest economic growth and restrained inflation provided a favorable
backdrop for a substantial decline in long-term interest rates during 1995. The
yield on the long-term Treasury bond fell 189 basis points during the year,
while the Municipal Bond Buyer 20 yield declined by a smaller 127 basis points.
As a result, long-term municipal bonds yielded close to 90% of Treasury bonds at
the end of 1995, partially reflecting market concerns that tax reform may reduce
the relative attractiveness of municipal bonds. Total municipal bond volume in
1995 declined by 4.9% from the prior year to $156 billion.
The Fund's 12.38% average annual total return (net of all expenses and sales
loads) for 1995 was substantially above its 8.62% annual average since its
inception. Our historical rate of return has been slightly below the 8.9% annual
performance of the Lehman Municipal Bond Index. However, it should be noted that
the Lehman Index is a difficult measure for all municipal funds, because it
includes no operating expenses and transaction costs and is always fully
invested. Moreover, the Fund's higher coupon profile and shorter maturity
structure relative to the Lehman Index reflect our strategy to cushion the Fund
against any potential volatility associated with tax reform.
The municipal market in early 1996 now offers investors respectable returns
relative to inflation and attractive yields compared to other fixed income
investments on a tax-adjusted basis. The major posi-
continued
v
<PAGE> 9
tive factor for the municipal market continues to be the favorable supply and
demand picture. It has been estimated that the total par value of outstanding
municipal bonds declined by $38 billion during 1995 and may be reduced by an
additional $36 billion during 1996. Declines in new money issuance are expected
to be even more pronounced in certain sectors, such as electric utilities; and
in a limited number of states, such as Texas. The declining supply, together
with fairly stable demand, creates a favorable technical underpinning for the
municipal market.
Retail demand for municipal securities has recently diminished, reflecting
concerns regarding tax reform and the Flat Tax. The recent recommendations of
the Kemp Commission endorsing a Flat Tax were extremely vague, making it
difficult to evaluate the revenue neutrality of the plan and the impact on
middle class taxes. However, if some of the more popular preferences of the Kemp
Commission were implemented in conjunction with a Flat Tax, such as maintenance
of mortgage interest deductions and charitable contributions, along with
deductions of payroll taxes, the marginal tax rate would undoubtedly move above
20%. Uncertainty regarding tax reform has created opportunities in the municipal
market. For example, at current rates, the taxable equivalent yield for
municipal bonds is 7.5% for individuals in the 28% bracket and close to 9% for
investors with a 39.6% marginal tax rate. Many institutional investors and some
retail customers have apparently concluded that a long-term municipal yield
equal to 90% of Treasuries appears to be generous compensation for the possible
risk of tax reform. Moreover, the lingering impact of recently high real
interest rates and sizable consumer debt burdens should restrain economic growth
in 1996, which would be viewed positively by the bond markets.
Both of the Fund's managers have extensive research and portfolio management
expertise which stems from a cumulative 40 years employment experience, much of
it with Wall Street investment firms and banks. During 1995, we continued to
manage the Fund according to the following principles that have historically
contributed to our success:
- - Investment commitments are "credit-driven", as we search for and identify
value in the municipal marketplace. It is becoming increasingly important to
utilize a proactive credit/market approach to identify bonds that should not
only be purchased, but also current holdings that should be eliminated. For
example, we continue to overweight midwestern and Texas holdings. Midwestern
bonds have been strong relative performers, as the region benefits from
increased diversification and a rejuvenated industrial sector. Economic growth
in Texas has outpaced the national growth rate for five straight years and is
expected to outperform the U.S. economy in the near future, boosted by NAFTA.
Moreover, principal redemptions of Texas municipal bonds are expected to be
more than double total new money issuance within the state during 1996, which
should bolster trading values of Texas bonds. We avoided purchases in regions
with weak underlying economies and financial pressures. We also did not
leverage the portfolio through the use of derivative securities. The Fund
continued its commitment to high quality state housing bonds with attractive
current yields and highly rated obligations of multi-hospital systems.
- - We seek to provide a high quality stream of current tax-exempt income
consistent with managing the risk to invested capital. Given the recent narrow
yield differential between higher and lower rated credits, our new purchases
during 1995 were concentrated in the higher-rated Aa and Aaa categories.
- - Chubb leverages its presence as a major tax-exempt institutional investor to
access and utilize the product, research and market-making capabilities of the
major institutional dealers in the marketplace.
Through the application of these investment principles, we strive to deliver the
competitive total returns that our shareholders have enjoyed to date. The past
year was one of the most successful years ever for the fixed income markets.
While we would not anticipate returns of the same magnitude in 1996, the
fundamentals for the municipal market remain positive.

Nineteen ninety five was truly an outstanding year for the U.S. stock market;
benefiting from ideal conditions for financial assets. Capitalizing on this
environment, the Growth and Income Fund rose 35.52% (excluding sales loads) in
1995 versus a 37.45% rise for the S&P 500. It doesn't get much better for the
financial markets than the near perfect market conditions that they operated in
for most of 1995. The following were the main contributing factors to the
widespread appreciation in financial assets.

28.45%, and the S&P 500 37.45%. Leadership was most notable in the technology
and financial related industries and in fact performance was almost impossible
without some exposure in these two sectors, but many other industries shared in
the party. Interestingly, 1995 marked a record fifth year without a 10%
correction in the stock market. Moreover, the market was never down more than 4%
in the entire year. For stock market historians, 1995 was the best year for U.S.
stocks since 1958, the second 30 percent plus year this decade (30.55% in 1991)
and the sixth best year since 1926.

years well above average returns. The end result should be further stock market
advances, but much slower and narrower in scope than last year. This will
require even more focus on individual stock selection.
Diversification continued to be monitored closely in 1995. To assure proper
diversification, no more than 20% of the portfolio was invested in any one
industry group and no one security represented more than 3% of the portfolio's
market value when purchased. Global securities continue to provide extra value
for our portfolio. As of December 31, 1995 foreign securities represented 14.87%
of the Funds market value.
We believe our disciplined value approach should continue to reward our
shareholders over the long term.

This graph compares an initial $10,000 investment made in the Chubb Capital

We are happy to report on and share with you the results for our initial quarter
for the Chubb Capital Appreciation Fund. In doing so, we will take the
opportunity to discuss the merits of Midcap stocks, reiterate the chief
directives of our charter, outline our investment approach, and discuss our 1996
investment outlook.
1995 was an amazing year for financial assets. The stock market recorded its
best year in two decades and established a record number of new highs. Given
that backdrop, performance wise, it was not an ideal setting for launching a new
portfolio. In spite of this, our portfolio had an auspicious beginning. The
Capital Appreciation Fund rose 4.60% (without a load) for the first four months
and 3.22% for the fourth quarter. This compared to a rise of 4.45% and 1.27% for
the Lipper Equity Mid-Cap Index and 3.89% and 1.43% for the S&P Mid-Cap Index,
over the same time periods. Even more impressive is that this performance was
achieved while the fund was under-invested during a surging initial stock market
month in September.

<PAGE> 13
Historically, we have found the Midcap market to be a valuable source of value
stock selections for all of our equity funds. The principle investment
attributes which Midcap stocks provide us are an attractive combination of value
and growth. As in all our funds, this is the most important part of our overall
investment strategy, required in all our stock recommendations. Loosely defined,
Midcap stocks have market capitalizations ranging between 300 million and 2.5
billion. This intermediate size offers many advantages. First, as a group they
are big enough to provide both adequate liquidity and a seasoned historical
operating record. Second, they tend to be less followed by Wall Street and
under-owned by institutional investors. Lastly, and most importantly, they
typically have higher prospective growth rates then the overall market yet
conversely sell at discount price/earnings valuations. Clearly, it is for these
very reasons why we chose to initiate a portfolio dedicated solely to this value
segment of the market.
Consistent with Chubb's approach to its other funds, we are dedicated to
employing the same disciplined long term Chubb value approach in managing this
portfolio. The goal is an individually selected portfolio of stocks that pass
our rigid standards of value. In general, the stocks invested in will have
price/earnings ratios below the respective levels of the overall market.
Conversely, they also must have prospective earnings growth rates above that of
the market. Furthermore, these stocks will be equally inexpensive (pricewise) on
numerous other valuation measures which we keep track of: book value, cash flow,
and revenues. The portfolio will ultimately consist of approximately 35 to 40
equally weighted stocks. We target this size portfolio for two reasons: 1) the
portfolio is small enough to effectively manage as well as maximize the benefits
of our individual stock research, and 2) the portfolio is large enough to
achieve proper diversity. Diversity is further achieved by making sure that no
more than 20% of the portfolio is invested in any one industry and no one
security represents more then 3% of the portfolio's market value at time of
purchase. In keeping with our charter, the majority of the stocks invested in
will have market capitalizations between 500 million and 2 billion in size.
In 1995, the fund adhered to its mandate of disciplined value oriented stock
selection. We began the process of carefully building a portfolio of
attractively priced individual stocks that offered a combination of both value
and growth. At year end, the portfolio consisted of twenty-seven stocks, the
majority of which had market capitalizations between 500 million and 2 billion
in size.
We are cautiously optimistic regarding overall stock market performance for
1996. On the positive side most of the favorable conditions that were
instrumental in last years advance are still present: moderate economic growth,
subdued inflation, declining interest rates, and favorable supply/demand
characteristics for stocks. Reasons for caution are slowing corporate profits
and a possible pullback to more normalized historical stock returns. Overall, we
would look for a smaller and narrower advance in the U.S. stock market this
year. This should be an advantageous market for individual stock selection. In
regards to stock strategy, we will continue to search the market and
opportunistically add stocks that satisfy our investment criteria.
We believe this disciplined value approach should produce superior long-term
returns for our shareholders.

Following the severe bear market of 1994, 1995 proved to be a record year for
world bond market performance in local currency terms. The environment in which
this occurred was positive for bonds, i.e.; subdued growth, low inflation, and
easing monetary policy.
The last quarter of 1995, with the exception of Japan, continued the positive
theme. The 30 year U.S. Treasury Bond finished the year with a yield just below
6%, close to 200bp below where it started the year. Canada and Australia also
put in strong fourth quarter and yearly performance. In Europe, despite
political and economic uncertainties over Monetary Union, monetary easing
continued with several countries reducing interest rates as inflation remained
benign and growth came in below forecasts. As a result, most bond markets,
especially the high yielding countries, provided strong performance during the
last quarter. Japan was the exception showing a negative return reflecting a
long delayed but fragile economic upturn, placing it last in terms of world
performance

ranking for the quarter and the year; although it still managed to provide
positive double digit returns for the year.
All the major currencies strengthened versus the Japanese yen in the last
quarter of 1995, the U.S. dollar was up 3.8% and the German deutschemark 3.1%.
Apart from the Swedish krona, the Spanish peseta, the Italian lira and the
French franc, other major currencies weakened versus the U.S. dollar in the last
quarter.
OUTLOOK
In Japan, the impact of the huge fiscal stimulus during 1995 is expected to
positively impact economic growth albeit at a gradual rate. The Japanese yen
should weaken versus the U.S. dollar but not as much as the European currencies,
and Japanese bond yields are likely to drift higher over the next year. The
European economies have weakened significantly. Rising structural unemployment,
high real interest rates and the struggle to meet the restrictive Maastricht
Treaty Monetary Union budget targets are influencing pressures to continue
monetary easing thereby creating a positive bond environment. The currencies
will remain weak and be volatile especially as various countries prepare for
general elections. The U.S. dollar is expected to continue to strengthen in
1996.
The Fund's investment strategy has reflected a positive view on European bond
markets and U.S. dollar strength. The portfolio has been overweight in the most
attractive bond markets but with currencies partially hedged back into U.S.
dollars. Within the Japanese market both the bonds and the currency continue to
be underweighted. In addition, a small proportion of the portfolio was invested
in U.S. dollar denominated emerging markets, to take advantage of the U.S.
dollar view while in an attempt to increase the yield on the fund.
Looking into 1996, the view remains favorable to bonds in European markets, and
negative on European currencies versus the U.S. dollar and the Japanese yen.

DECEMBER 31, 1995
NOTE A--ORGANIZATION

the State of Maryland on April 27, 1987 and is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, open-end series management
investment company. The Company consists of seven Funds (the "Funds"): Chubb
Money Market Fund, Chubb Government Securities Fund, Chubb Total Return Fund,

Fund, and Chubb Global Income Fund. The Company was established through the sale
and issuance on December 1, 1987, of shares to Chubb Life Insurance Company of
America ("Chubb Life"), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Chubb
Corporation ("Chubb"). At December 31, 1995, Chubb, and its wholly-owned

</TABLE>
(A) Shares issued September 1, 1995
NOTE B--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Valuation of Investments: Equity securities are valued at the closing sales
price on the exchange on which such securities are principally traded; or, if
traded in the over-the-counter market or on a national exchange for which no
sales took place on the day of valuation, at the mean of the bid and asked
prices at the close of trading. Quotations of foreign securities in foreign
currencies are converted to the U.S. dollar equivalents using appropriately
translated foreign market closing prices. Securities listed on a foreign
exchange are valued at the last quoted sale price available before the time when
net assets are valued. Securities or other assets for which market quotations
are not readily available are valued at fair value in accordance with procedures
established by the Board of Directors. Debt instruments are valued on the basis
of valuations provided by a pricing service that determines valuations for
institutional size trading units of securities, without exclusive reliance upon
quoted prices. These valuations are believed to more accurately reflect fair
market value. Short-term debt instruments with a remaining maturity of less than
60 days are valued by the amortized cost method, which approximates market
value.
Trading in securities on most foreign exchanges and over-the-counter markets is
normally completed before the close of the domestic market and may also take
place on days on which the domestic market is closed. If events materially
affecting the value of foreign securities occur between the time when the
exchange on which they are traded closes and the time when the Fund's net asset
value is calculated, such securities will be valued at fair value in accordance
with procedures established by and under general supervision of the Board of
Directors.
The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. The market
values of investments, other assets and liabilities and forward contracts stated
in foreign currencies are translated at the prevailing exchange rates at the end
of the period. Purchases, sales, income and expenses are translated at the
exchange rate prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
CHUBB INVESTMENT FUNDS, INC.
DECEMBER 31, 1995
NOTE B--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES--(CONTINUED)
Since the net assets of the Funds are presented at the exchange rates and market
value prevailing at the end of the period, the Funds do not isolate the portion
of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in foreign exchange
rates on securities from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market
prices of securities held during the period. Such fluctuations are included with
the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.
Reported net realized gain or loss from foreign currency transactions arise from
sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of foreign currencies,
currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on
securities transactions, the difference between the amounts of dividends,
interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books, and the
U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized
gain or loss from foreign currency transactions arises from changes in the value
of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities at fiscal year
end, resulting from changes in the exchange rate.
The Funds may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to protect
securities and related receivables and payables against fluctuations in future
foreign currency rates. A forward contract is an agreement to buy or sell
currencies of different countries on a specified future date at a specified
rate. Risk may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential
inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and is
generally limited to the amount of unrealized gain on the contracts, if any, at
the date of default. Risk may also arise from unanticipated movements in the
value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. Contracts are marked-to
market daily and the change in market value is recorded as unrealized
appreciation or depreciation. Realized gains or losses arising from such
transactions are included in net realized gains or losses from foreign currency
transactions. At December 31, 1995, the Global Income Fund had the following
open forward foreign currency contracts:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
CHUBB INVESTMENT FUNDS, INC.
DECEMBER 31, 1995
NOTE B--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES--(CONTINUED)
Security Transactions and Investment Income: Security transactions are recorded
on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are
recorded on the basis of the first-in, first-out method. Interest income,
including where applicable, amortization of discount on investments, is recorded
on the accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date,
except for certain dividends from foreign securities, which are recorded as soon
as the Funds are informed of the dividend.
Dividends to Shareholders: Dividends to shareholders from net investment income
are declared daily and distributed monthly for the Chubb Money Market Fund and
the Chubb Government Securities Fund; declared and distributed monthly for the
Chubb Tax-Exempt Fund and the Chubb Global Income Fund; declared and distributed
quarterly for the Chubb Total Return Fund; and declared and distributed annually
for the Chubb Growth and Income Fund and Chubb Capital Appreciation Fund.
Dividends from net realized capital gains are declared and distributed at least
once annually. Dividends distributed to shareholders are recorded on the
ex-dividend date.
The Company distinguishes between dividends on a tax basis and a financial
reporting basis and only dividends in excess of tax basis earnings and profits
are reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Differences in
the recognition or classification of income between the financial statements and
tax earnings and profits which result in temporary over-distributions for
financial statement purposes are classified as distributions in excess of net
investment income or accumulated realized gains.
Federal Income Taxes: It is the policy of the Company for each Fund to qualify
as a regulated investment company by complying with the requirements of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies, by
distributing substantially all of its taxable earnings to its shareholders.
Therefore, no Federal tax provision is required.
NOTE C--INVESTMENTS
The cost of investment securities held on December 31, 1995 for Federal income
tax purposes is the same as for financial reporting purposes. As of December 31,
1995, gross unrealized gains and losses were as follows:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Chubb Investment Funds, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Chubb

as of December 31, 1995, and the related statement of operations for the year
then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in
the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years
in the period then ended for all Funds except Chubb Capital Appreciation Fund
and Chubb Global Income Fund, for which the statement of operations, statement
of changes in net assets and the financial highlights are for the period from
September 1, 1995 (Commencement of Operations) to December 31, 1995. These
financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the
Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of
December 31, 1995 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, or other
appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each
of the respective funds constituting Chubb Investment Funds, Inc. at December
31, 1995, the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets and
