                         Prospectuses dated May 1, 1999

 Under Appendix B, Financial Highlights, the following replaces the financial
 highlights tables in each Goldman Sachs Financial Square Prospectus indi-
 cated above:

Appendix B
Financial Highlights

 The financial highlights tables are intended to help you understand a Fund's
 financial performance for the past five years (or less if the Fund has been
 in operation for less than five years). Certain information reflects finan-
 cial results for a single Fund share. The total returns in the table repre-
 sent the rate that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in
 a Fund (assuming reinvestment of all dividends and distributions). The data
 with respect to a share (of the Class specified) of the Funds outstanding
 for the period ended June 30, 1999 is unaudited. The remaining data has been
 audited by Arthur Andersen LLP, whose report, along with a Fund's financial
 statements, is included in the Fund's annual report (available upon request
 without charge). During the periods shown the Trust did not offer Select
 Shares of the Funds. Accordingly, there are no financial highlights for the
 Select Shares.
