SEMIANNUAL INVESTMENT ADVISER'S REPORT -- APRIL 30, 2000
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
June 20, 2000
Dear Shareholder:
For the six months ended April 30, 2000, the Common Class shares of Warburg
Pincus Emerging Growth Fund had a gain of 30.63%, vs. gains of 27.78% and
38.11%, respectively, for the Russell 2000 Growth Index 1 and the Russell 2500
Growth Index 2. The Fund's one-year return through April 30, 2000 was 48.49%.
Its five-year, 10-year and since-inception (on January 21, 1988) average annual
total returns through April 30, 2000 were 21.92%, 19.12% and 18.09%,
respectively.
The period was a solid one for the stocks targeted by the Fund (i.e., small-
and mid-cap stocks of companies offering higher-than-average profit growth),
both in absolute terms and compared to their large-cap counterparts. The group
was buoyed by optimism over the profit outlook for small- and mid-cap stocks and
by investors' continued enthusiasm for growth-oriented companies in general. To
be sure, emerging-growth stocks were volatile, particularly late in the period,
reflecting interest-rate uncertainties as well as concerns over valuations of
technology vs. non-technology companies.
The Fund had a competitive showing for the period, performing roughly in line
with its benchmarks. Aiding the Fund were good showings from a number of its
holdings, in particular its communications and technology stocks,
notwithstanding the turbulence witnessed in these areas.
We made no material changes to the Fund during the period with respect to
basic strategy, remaining focused on well-managed companies with significant
long-term growth potential. We continued to find a large number of such
companies within the technology area, broadly defined. Our positive view on
these companies remained based on several compelling forces, not the least of
which is the Internet's expanding use as a productivity-enhancing tool and as a
means of commerce. Specific software, electronic-component and
communications-services providers are well-positioned to benefit from this
trend, as are certain business-services companies, which remained
well-represented in the Fund. Elsewhere of note, we maintained significant
exposure to the energy and pharmaceutical sectors, where we continued to see
compelling growth stories and attractive valuations.
Looking ahead, we have a positive view on the prospects for small- and
mid-cap stocks, notwithstanding the likelihood of continued short-term
volatility. Barring a material slowdown in the U.S. economy, we feel that the
group's profit backdrop should remain, at minimum, supportive, given these
1

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
companies' domestically biased customer bases. Other factors that stand to
benefit emerging-growth stocks include a strong ongoing outsourcing trend, with
large companies delegating non-core functions to smaller, niche-type companies.
Set within this environment, our focus will remain on innovative, rapidly
growing companies we deem to have the best long-term prospects.

WARBURG PINCUS SMALL COMPANY VALUE FUND
SEMIANNUAL INVESTMENT ADVISER'S REPORT -- APRIL 30, 2000
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
June 20, 2000
Dear Shareholder:
For the six months ended April 30, 2000, the Common Class shares of Warburg
Pincus Small Company Value Fund had a return of 13.07%, vs. returns of 18.72%
and 8.21%, respectively, for the Russell 2000 Index 1 and the Russell 2000 Value
Index 2. The Fund's one-year return through April 30, 2000 was 9.56%. Its
since-inception (on December 29, 1995) average annual total return through April
30, 2000 was 12.24%.
Small-capitalization stocks had good performance for the six months, both in
absolute terms and compared to their large-cap brethren, supported by a
favorable profit outlook for the group. However, these stocks, and the group's
growth-oriented technology names in particular, were quite volatile, reflecting
fears that a strong economy would put upward pressure on inflation and interest
rates. Volatility was especially sharp late in the period, with many growth
stocks (which paced the small-cap rally for the six months) suffering
double-digit pullbacks in April, a relatively good month for small-cap value
stocks.
Against this backdrop, the Fund had positive performance, outpacing the
Russell 2000 Value Index by a fair margin. The Fund benefited from some timely
stock selection, especially within the technology area. Other factors that aided
the Fund included its underweighting in the financial segment through much of
the period. Financial stocks lagged the broader small-cap market, hampered by
fears that the Federal Reserve would continue to raise interest rates (the Fed
raised rates three times during the six months).
We made no material change to the Fund in terms of basic strategy during the
period, remaining focused on identifying visible catalysts that can bring
favorable attention to underfollowed, relatively inexpensive small-cap stocks.
However, we made a few adjustments to the Fund's sector allocation. Most
noteworthy was our increased exposure to financial-services companies (broadly
defined to include banks and real-estate investment trusts). Our decision to
add, late in the period, was based on the increasingly compelling valuations we
saw here. It was also based on our belief that the Fed would take a "neutral"
stance on interest rates relatively soon (financial stocks have historically
tended to rebound ahead of peaks in rate cycles). Our particular emphasis was on
insurance and real-estate companies.
Another sector weighting we raised was health care. Many of these stocks
declined in 1998 and 1999 as "reimbursement" reductions (stemming from the
Balanced Budget Act of 1997) were phased in. We began to see value here late
last year, believing that political pressures would restore at least some of
3

WARBURG PINCUS SMALL COMPANY VALUE FUND
SEMIANNUAL INVESTMENT ADVISER'S REPORT -- APRIL 30, 2000 (CONT'D)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
the rate reduction. Indeed, such legislation was approved last November, and
further rate increases could be in the offing. Our focus remained on nursing
homes and hospitals, especially those with exposure to "acute care," or
long-term, customers. Rate reductions for acute-care patients were the sharpest,
and restored funding could therefore have the most positive impact on these
stocks. We continued to avoid health-maintenance organizations, reflecting our
ongoing concerns regarding the possible passage of "right to sue" legislation
and our general concerns over these stocks in an election year.
One weighting we lowered during the period was technology. We pared certain
holdings here on valuation considerations, while eliminating positions in
specific companies we deemed to have deteriorating fundamentals. We also
decreased our emphasis on the consumer-discretionary area, based on the Federal
Reserve's apparent desire to rein in consumer spending by raising interest
rates.
Looking ahead, we see grounds for optimism regarding the underfollowed stocks
targeted by the Fund. On the whole, value stocks are very compellingly priced
compared to growth stocks (especially within the small-cap arena), with
valuation discrepancies between the two groups remaining as wide as they have
been in nearly three decades. While this is no guarantee that value stocks will
see improved performance vs. growth stocks anytime soon, recent market
behavior--across the market-cap spectrum--suggests that investors have become
more cognizant of valuations and are broadening their scope. For our part, we
will remain focused not on cheap stocks per se, but on stocks we deem to be
fundamentally undervalued, given factors such as their underlying companies'
balance sheet health and earnings prospects.

Dear Shareholder:
For the six months ended April 30, 2000, the Common Class shares of Warburg
Pincus Small Company Growth Fund had a gain of 46.95%, vs. a gain of 27.78% for
the Russell 2000 Growth Index.* The Fund's one-year return through April 30,
2000 was 88.80%. Its since-inception (on December 31, 1996) average annual total
return through April 30, 2000 was 30.88%.
Effective January 7, 2000, Elizabeth B. Dater no longer serves as
Co-Portfolio Manager of the Fund. Stephen J. Lurito and Sammy Oh continue to
serve as Co-Portfolio Managers.
MANAGER COMMENTARY
Small-capitalization stocks had good performance for the six months, both in
absolute terms and compared to large-cap stocks. The group was supported by
optimism over small companies' profit outlook and by continued improvement in
the global economy, which reinforced the case for equities generally. These
stocks were, however, quite volatile, especially late in the period, reflecting
interest-rate uncertainties as well as concerns over valuations on technology
vs. non-technology companies and speculative excess in the IPO market.
Against this backdrop, the Fund had a solid showing, outperforming its
benchmark by a comfortable margin. The Fund's performance was driven by the
rally in small-cap stocks and by good stock selection during the period,
especially within the technology and communications areas. The Fund also saw
good performances from individual holdings within a range of other sectors, for
example specific oil-services and pharmaceutical stocks.
We made no major changes to the Fund during the period with regard to overall
strategy, remaining focused on rapidly growing companies with innovative, viable
products and services. With respect to sector allocation, our primary emphasis
remained on technology stocks, broadly defined to include software, electronics
and telecommunications companies. We believe that a large number of these have
good long-term prospects, supported by the phenomenal expansion of the Internet
(and the ongoing wireless "conversion" of the Internet) and by demand for
productivity-enhancing products and services. Other noteworthy sector weightings
for the Fund through the period included the energy and health care areas, where
we continued to see good opportunity.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Looking ahead, we have a favorable view on the long-term prospects for
small-cap stocks, the group's propensity for short-term volatility
notwithstanding. The trends that have supported small-cap investing since late
1998--most specifically, relatively stable global financial conditions and a
healthy U.S. economy--appear unlikely to collapse, which should allow for ample
opportunity to add value via individual stock selection. Set within this
environment, we will continue to strive to identify stocks we deem to have the
best prospects.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Warburg Pincus Emerging Growth Fund (the "Emerging Growth Fund"), Warburg
Pincus Small Company Value (the "Small Company Value Fund"), and Warburg Pincus
Small Company Growth Fund (the "Small Company Growth Fund") (each a "Fund" and
collectively the "Funds") each a Maryland Corporation, and are registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") as a diversified
open-end management investment company (except the Emerging Growth Fund), which
is not diversified.
Investment objectives for each Fund are as follows: the Emerging Growth Fund
seeks maximum capital appreciation; the Small Company Value Fund seeks long-term
capital appreciation; the Small Company Growth Fund seeks capital growth.
Each Fund except the Small Company Growth Fund may invest up to 10% of its
total assets in non-publicly traded securities (the Small Company Growth may
invest up to 15% of its net assets in such securities). Non-publicly traded
securities may be less liquid than publicly traded securities, and they may be
difficult or impossible to sell at the time and the price the Fund would like.
In addition, the lack of an active market may make it difficult to obtain an
accurate price for a Fund security.
Each Fund (except the Small Company Growth Fund) offers two classes of
shares, one class being referred to as the Common Class shares and one class
being referred to as the Advisor Class shares. The Small Company Growth Fund
offers only Common Class shares. Effective November 7, 1997, the Small Company
Growth Fund closed generally to new investors; the Fund re-opened to all
investors on November 10, 1998. Common Class and Advisor Class shares in each
Fund represent an equal pro rata interest in such Fund, except that they bear
different expenses which reflect the difference in the range of services
provided to them. Common Class shares for the Small Company Value Fund, the
Small Company Growth Fund each bear expenses paid pursuant to a shareholder
servicing and distribution plan at an annual rate of .25% of the average daily
net asset value of each Fund's Common Class shares. Advisor Class shares bear
expenses paid pursuant to a distribution plan at an annual rate not to exceed
.75% of the average daily net asset value of the applicable Fund's Advisor Class
shares. Advisor Class shares are currently bearing expenses of .50% of average
daily net assets. At April 30, 2000, there were no outstanding Advisor Class
shares for the Small Company Growth Fund.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- (CONT'D)
The net asset value of each Fund is determined daily as of the close of
regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. Each Fund's investments are
valued at market value, which is generally determined using market quotations.
If no sales are reported, investments are generally valued at the mean between
the last reported bid and asked prices. If market quotations are not readily
available, securities and other assets are valued by another method that the
Board of Directors believes accurately reflects fair value. Debt that will
mature in 60 days or less is valued on the basis of amortized cost, which
approximates market value, unless the Board determines that using this method
would not accurately reflect an investment's value.
The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars.
Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded at the current
prevailing exchange rates. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the current exchange rate
at the end of the period. Translation gains or losses resulting from changes in
the exchange rate during the reporting period and realized gains and losses on
the settlement of foreign currency transactions are reported in the results of
operations for the current period. The Funds do not isolate that portion of
realized gains and losses on investments in equity securities which are due to
changes in the foreign exchange rate from that which is due to changes in market
prices of equity securities. The Funds isolate that portion of realized gains
and losses on investments in debt securities which are due to changes in the
foreign exchange rate from that which are due to changes in market prices of
debt securities.
Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest
income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Income, expenses (excluding class-specific expenses,
principally distribution and shareholder servicing fees) and realized/unrealized
gains/losses are allocated proportionately to each class of shares based upon
the relative net asset value of outstanding shares of that class. The cost of
investments sold is determined by use of the specific identification method for
both financial reporting and income tax purposes.
Dividends from net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any,
are declared and paid at least annually. However, to the extent that a net
realized capital gain can be reduced by a capital loss carryover, such gain will
not be distributed. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in
accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from generally
accepted accounting principles.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- (CONT'D)
No provision is made for federal taxes, as it is each Fund's intention to
continue to qualify for and elect the tax treatment applicable to regulated
investment companies under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the
"Code") and make the requisite distributions to its shareholders, which will be
sufficient to relieve it from federal income and excise taxes.
Costs incurred in connection with organization of each Fund other than
Emerging Growth Fund have been deferred and are being amortized over a period of
five years from the date each Fund commenced its operations.
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, each Fund, along with other Funds advised by Credit Suisse Asset
Management, LLC ("CSAM"), can transfer uninvested cash balances to a pooled cash
account, which can invest in repurchase agreements secured by U.S. government
securities. Securities, pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements, are
held by the Funds' custodian bank until the agreements mature. Each agreement
requires that the market value of the collateral be sufficient to cover payments
of interest and principal; however, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the
counterpart to the agreement, retention of the collateral may be subject to
legal proceedings. As of April 30, 2000, the Funds had no investments in
repurchase agreements.
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 at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
The Funds have an arrangement with their transfer agent whereby interest
earned on uninvested cash balances was used to offset a portion of their
transfer agent expense. For the six months ended April 30, 2000, the Funds
received credits or reimbursements under this arrangement as follows:
FUND AMOUNT
---- --------
Emerging Growth $349,897
Small Company Value 3,888
Small Company Growth 3,833

2. INVESTMENT ADVISER, CO-ADMINISTRATORS AND DISTRIBUTOR
On July 6, 1999, CSAM became each Funds' investment adviser as a result of
the previously announced acquisition of Warburg Pincus Asset Management, Inc.
("Warburg Pincus") by Credit Suisse Group ("Credit Suisse"). Warburg Pincus was
combined with CSAM, which is an indirect wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary of Credit
Suisse. For its investment advisory services, CSAM receives the following fees
based on each Fund's average daily net assets:
FUND ANNUAL RATE
------ ---------------------------------
Emerging Growth Fund .90% of average daily net assets
Small Company Value Fund 1.00% of average daily net assets
Small Company Growth Fund 1.00% of average daily net assets
For the six months ended April 30, 2000, investment advisory fees and
voluntary waivers were as follows:

Small Company Growth Fund 121,403 (60,913) 60,490
Counsellors Funds Service, Inc. ("CFSI"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of CSAM
served as co-administrator of each Fund until November 1, 1999. On November 1,
1999, Credit Suisse Asset Management Securities, Inc. ("CSAMSI") replaced CFSI
as co-administrator to each Fund. PFPC Inc. ("PFPC"), an indirect subsidiary of
PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. ("PNC"), also serves as each Fund's
co-administrator. For its administrative services, CSAMSI currently receives a
fee calculated at the rate of .10% of each Fund's daily net assets. For the six
months ended April 30, 2000, administrative services fees were as follows:
FUND CO-ADMINISTRATION FEE
---- ---------------------
Emerging Growth Fund $1,191,094
Small Company Value Fund 13,934

6. FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS
Each Fund may enter into forward currency contracts for the purchase or sale
of a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date. Risks may
arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of
counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated
movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. Each
Fund will enter into forward contracts primarily for hedging purposes. Forward
currency contracts are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying
currency and any gains or losses are recorded for financial statement purposes
as unrealized until the contract settlement date or an offsetting position is
entered into. At April 30, 2000, there were no open forward foreign currency
contracts.
7. CAPITAL SHARE TRANSACTIONS
Each Fund is authorized to issue three billion full and fractional shares of
capital stock, $.001 par value per share, of which one billion shares (two
billion in the case of the Emerging Growth Fund) of each Fund are classified as
the Advisor Class.
