ECONOMIC AND MARKET REVIEW
Economy The pace of the nation's economic growth slowed in the second half
of 1996. Final third quarter Gross Domestic Product was revised downward to 2.1%
from the previous estimate of 3.2%. While growth for the entire year is expected
to be above the Federal Reserve's targeted range of 2.0-2.25%, the moderate
growth in the second half of the year seems to have calmed the bond market.
Inflation as measured by both the Consumer Price and Producer Price Indices
remained under control despite some volatility attributable to the food and
energy components. As a result, the Federal Reserve left interest rates
unchanged at its November and December Federal Open Market Committee meetings.
The economy is growing at a moderate pace and inflation remains subdued. As
we enter 1997, the debate continues as to whether the economy and inflation are
accelerating, and the Federal Reserve needs to tighten; or whether the economy
is slowing, and the Federal Reserve needs to begin easing to avoid a recession
in 1997. We believe that economic growth and inflation may pick up during 1997.
This could result in higher interest rates as we move into the second quarter
and a possible Federal Reserve tightening.
Bonds Long term interest rates started the quarter at 6.92%. In October
and November the bond market rallied as interest rates fell across most of the
yield curve. The long bond fell to 6.36%, a drop of 56 basis points. The
catalysts for the rally were an economy demonstrating moderate growth,
accommodating Federal policy, and the maintenance of political balance between
Congress and the White House. The rally ended in December as interest rates rose
and the long bond finished the quarter at 6.64%. The decline was prompted by
investors who felt that the market had moved to an over bought level. For the
quarter, the Lehman Brothers Government/Corporate Index rose 3.1% to finish the
year with a return of 2.9%.
Long term interest rates should remain within a range of 6 1/4% to 7% until
there is more evidence that economic growth is either accelerating or slowing
significantly. If the economy slows, bonds will rally as rates drop below the 6%
level toward 5% to 5 1/2%. A more likely scenario is for growth and inflation to
pick up into the second quarter with the Fed eventually tightening. Bonds will
decline as rates move above 7%. Bonds should then rally later in the year as
higher rates slow economic activity.
Stocks U.S. stocks, as measured by the S&P 500 Index, returned a strong
8.3% in the fourth quarter, bringing the return for 1996 to 22.7%. The robust
performance by the market over the past two calendar years has only been matched
twice during the past 50 years. The rapid movement in the market during the
fourth quarter was brought about by generally better than expected earnings
reports for the prior quarter, a declining interest rate environment, and large
amounts of cash flowing into equity mutual funds.
The stock market should continue its upward momentum in early 1997 as the
economy grows moderately and interest rates remain stable. Large cap stocks
should continue to lead the market while international equities lag. Small cap
stocks could bounce back after their sluggish performance in the second half of
1996. As the stock market rallies to more overvalued levels, it becomes
increasingly more vulnerable to earnings disappointments. Only a moderately
growing economy with low inflation and steady to slightly declining interest
rates can sustain a prolonged stock market rally in 1997. More likely stronger
growth will unfold in about the second quarter and will result in a moderate
correction in the stock market.
MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
The Federal Reserve appears to have been very pleased with the soft landing
of the economy in 1996 that resulted from their interest rate changes in 1995.
With the one last tweak of interest rates in early 1996, placing the Fed Funds
rate at 5.25%, the Federal Reserve has sat back and watched the economy show
overall moderate growth through the past year. Employment and wages remain
strong, but have not skyrocketed out of control. Consumers have generally been
restrained although somewhat more optimistic in their buying patterns this year
as housing sales were sluggish until rates dropped toward the end of 1996, and
as consumers made only moderate increases in Christmas purchases.
The economy continues on its relatively steady moderate growth path.
Federal Reserve members are watching closely for a turn in the economy one way
or the other but overall, they seem to be relatively happy
8
<PAGE> 3
with the current economic course. With no pitfalls in sight, we expect the Fed
to remain steady with interest rates through most of 1997. Late 1997 data may
provide information that will lead to a very modest change in interest rates as
another pre-emptive move by the Fed.
The interest rate curve remains relatively flat. Investors are predicting a
steady course in interest rates by the Federal Reserve. We are therefore
generally running an average portfolio maturity of 45 days, while taking
advantage of market anomalies that periodically occur in one particular maturity
or another. At 12/31/96, the average maturity was 35 days, shorter than usual to
take advantage of the year end spike in short maturity interest rates.
The Portfolio continues to be invested in high quality short-term
instruments, principally commercial paper. Our investment strategy is to
emphasize purchases of 30-90 day maturities to provide flexibility to respond to
any changes in the market place without sacrificing current income. The 30-day
and 7-day current yields of the Portfolio were 5.18% and 5.19%, respectively as
of December 31, 1996, after changes imposed by the Portfolio. Of course, past
performance does not guarantee future investment results.
Investments made in the Money Market Portfolio are not insured nor
guaranteed by the U.S. government. There is no assurance that the Portfolio will
maintain a steady net asset value.
HIGH QUALITY BOND PORTFOLIO
High Quality Bond investors surely saved the best for last in 1996 as the
Portfolio enjoyed its highest quarterly returns of the year. The Merrill Lynch
1-3 Year Treasury Index posted a solid 1.9% return for the three month period,
helping to boost one year returns to 5%. The High Quality Bond Portfolio
outperformed the benchmark every quarter in 1996, culminating in a 5.5% return
for the year.
October opened the quarter with rising bond prices. Leading economic
indicators released during the month suggested a slowdown in economic activity
and benign inflation at both the producer and consumer levels, supporting the
bond market's rally. Economic indicators included an unexpectedly weak
employment report, lower employment costs, and declining housing starts, all
contributing to lower yields by the end of October.
The bond market viewed November's Election Day results favorably, as the
Democrats retained the White House, and Republicans held their majorities in the
House and Senate. Bond investors hoped the political mix would yield continued
slow growth and benign inflation, a mix that has worked nicely for bonds.
Investors were not disappointed as the continued slow growth/benign inflation
scenario fostered rising bond values. November's economic indicators reported a
slowdown in retail sales, a tame Consumer Price Index (CPI) report, and a fifth
straight month of declining existing home sales, driving yields down further.
December dampened the bond market's spirit. Federal Reserve Chairman Alan
Greenspan opened the month suggesting that values of U.S. assets were too high,
leaving investors worried about possible Federal Reserve tightening. Reports of
brisk holiday sales early in December suggested signs of accelerated economic
activity, forcing yields higher. Although the Federal Open Market Committee
(FOMC) left rates unchanged at its December 17th meeting, several month-end
indicators pointed towards accelerated growth. Higher than expected consumer
confidence, combined with a sharp resurgence of existing and new home sales,
contributed to lower bond prices by month end, dampening an overall positive
quarter.
INTERMEDIATE GOVERNMENT BOND PORTFOLIO
Bonds, as measured by the Lehman Brothers Intermediate Government Index,
gained 2.3% for the three month period ending December 31, the highest calendar
quarterly return in 1996. The total return for bonds for the year ended December
31, 1996 was 4.1%. In contrast to last year, shorter-term securities generally
outperformed longer-term issues, which were much more affected by the rise in
interest rates over the period. Much of the performance in the fourth quarter
could be attributed to falling interest rates in October and November. There was
a back-up in rates in December due to renewed fears that strong economic
activity would be followed by a pick-up in inflation.
9
<PAGE> 4
The quarter began on a positive note for bond investors, as much of the
data released in October measuring levels of economic activity indicated a
continued slowing from the rapid advance of the second quarter. Reports on new
job creation, which probably raised inflation concerns among bond traders more
than any other indicator throughout the year, were far weaker than anticipated.
Moreover, closely watched measures of employment costs were lower as well.
Together with a drop in consumer confidence levels and slower home sales, bonds
in this sector had their best one month return since May, 1995. November was
similar in that generally weaker than expected economic data, coupled with
favorable inflation readings, pushed bond yields down, resulting in solid
returns for the month. December, however, was not as positive as the previous
two months. Bonds in most sectors posted negative returns. Many of the economic
releases in the last few weeks of the year pointed toward a possible rebound in
activity. Although inflation indicators remained within expectations, many bond
traders feared the prospect of stronger growth would finally cause inflation to
become a problem in the future.
The Portfolio maintained a duration slightly shorter than that of its
benchmark, the Lehman Intermediate Government Bond Index, throughout the fourth
quarter of this year. It is expected to be managed to a duration close to that
of its benchmark over the near term. The Portfolio will continue to eliminate
credit risk by seeking and holding only high quality Government issues.
GOVERNMENT/CORPORATE BOND PORTFOLIO
Although there were significant moves in bond yields this quarter, the
market did not experience the same day-to-day volatility associated with the
third quarter of 1996. Except for the very shortest maturities, bond prices
ended this period higher than where they started, which translated into positive
returns for investors. Bonds in the Lehman Brothers Government/Corporate Index
gained 3.1% for the three months ending December 31, bringing the total return
for 1996 to 2.9%. Returns in October and November were responsible for all of
this quarter's gain, as stronger than expected economic reports in December
caused the market to see negative returns.
Early in the quarter, the bond market continued a rally that began when the
Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC), the policy arm of the Federal Reserve
Bank, decided to leave interest rates unchanged at their September meeting. Bond
prices were bid higher as traders believed the long awaited, but never enacted,
bump-up in rates by the Fed would not happen this year. A hands-off policy by
the Federal Reserve, coupled with lackluster economic data, suggested slower
growth in the months ahead. October returns were the strongest in sixteen
months. In November, the market again saw weaker than expected employment
reports, lower consumer confidence levels, and no rebound in retail sales
figures. No increase in interest rates at the November FOMC meeting and strong
foreign demand for U.S. fixed income securities completed the picture, so that
bonds again had solid returns. There seemed, however, to be a dramatic
turnaround in market sentiment in December. Indicators on housing, employment,
and consumer confidence were all reported higher than anticipated. Continued
favorable inflation readings and a decision to leave rates unchanged at the
Federal Reserve's December meeting couldn't reverse the trend toward higher bond
yields. Returns for the month were negative due to concerns the tight labor
markets could result in wage inflation.
The Portfolio benefited from its overweighting of corporate issues relative
to the Index during the period. Generally, Government issues were not able to
match the returns of most of the corporate sectors. The Portfolio was maintained
at about the same duration as its benchmark index during the quarter, but may
extend relative to the benchmark should yields climb to levels where these bonds
could be considered undervalued.
HIGH YIELD BOND PORTFOLIO
As measured by the Salomon Brothers Cash Pay Index, the high yield bond
market returned 3.7% for the fourth quarter of 1996, beating most other fixed
income indices. For the year, bonds in this sector gained over 10%, more than
doubling the return of most investment-grade bond measures. Heavy investor
demand and a benign economic backdrop supported the advance. Credit quality had
a noticeable impact on return for the
10
<PAGE> 5
quarter. BB-rated issues returned 4.4%, outperforming both the lower quality B's
(3.9%), and lower rated CCC's (-3.1%) during the period.
Despite the compression of spreads during the year, demand for high yield
securities remains strong. Faced with an aging bull market in stocks and a
shortage of high income alternatives, investors have poured cash into high yield
mutual funds at an unparalleled rate. More new monies flowed into high yield
market this year than in any other year. Heavy investor demand and secular low
interest rates have also spurred new high yield issuance into record territory,
with $80 billion of new issues this year. Investor uncertainty regarding the
economy, stocks, and interest rates continues to benefit the high yield bond
market. While individuals in need of high income remain the market's core
constituency, both retail and institutional investors are increasingly embracing
high yield as a refuge. These bonds offer equity-like returns, but have risk
characteristics closer to investment grade debt issues. With a yield roughly
comparable to the long term return on common stocks, low correlation to the
broad stock and bond markets, and a roster of names familiar in most households,
the market is entering the mainstream of investment alternatives. The high yield
market has grown in size from $220 billion in 1991 to about $400 billion as of
year end. These issues now comprise 25% of the total corporate bonds
outstanding.
The outlook for the high yield market remains positive, particularly
relative to other fixed income investments. Investor demand for these securities
is likely to remain strong, especially in light of the recent volatility of the
broader stock and bond markets. The Portfolio remains defensively positioned
with respect to industry exposure, and slightly overweighted in top tier BB
rated issues relative to the Salomon Index.
BALANCED PORTFOLIO
Balanced portfolios, as measured by a 60/40 mix of the S&P 500 and the
Lehman Government/Corporate Index, posted their highest quarterly returns of the
year of 6.3%. Bonds had their strongest return in 1996 due to perceptions of
slowing growth and continued favorable inflation readings over the period.
Equity returns, however, were clearly the determining force for the strong gain
in the Index. As has been true for most of the year, stocks were helped by low
levels of interest rates over the period and a healthy growth in corporate
profits.
Asset allocation and equity sector returns had the greatest impact on the
quarterly results of the Balanced Fund. The Portfolio increased its equity
exposure throughout the quarter. This helped performance relative to the Index
in a period in which equities outperformed bonds. The Portfolio finished the
year with a 62% weighting in stocks, slightly higher than the benchmark's 60%.
Although the S&P 500 returned 8.4% for the quarter, financial and
technology issues gained 13.5% and 13.1% respectively. Financial institutions,
like banks, were positively impacted by lower interest rates over the last three
months. However, bank shares were bid higher more due to their improved balanced
sheets, solid dividend and earnings growth, and the reduction in loan losses.
The Balanced Portfolio was equally weighted versus the Index in this sector.
Individual issues that did well within the Portfolio during the quarter included
Travelers (23.5%) and Citicorp (14.2%).
Technology, up 40%, was the best performing sector of the market this year.
This industry continues to benefit from soaring demand, as companies are more
determined than ever to increase productivity. More than 50% of capital spending
by businesses is now technology related. The Portfolio was slightly
underweighted versus the Index over the quarter. However, impressive returns of
individual issues helped the technology sector to an overall 14.1% gain over the
past three months, with Nokia Corp. (30.2%) and International Business Machines
(22%) leading the way.
EQUITY INCOME PORTFOLIO
In the fourth quarter, equity income investing, as measured by the Lipper
Equity Income Index, posted its best results for the year with a total return of
about 7.5%. This puts the total return for the past year at 17.9% and brings
performance over the past two years to about 53%. The Index thus enjoyed its
best two year
11
<PAGE> 6
period since 1981-1982 when it returned over 60%. However, as in 1995, these
more conservative equity strategies failed to beat the rapidly advancing S&P 500
Index, which returned 23.3% for the year. The key factors behind the market's
advance in the fourth quarter were declining interest rates, fairly strong
corporate profits, and election results which preserved the political status quo
in Washington.
Fourth quarter performance of the Equity Income Portfolio was most
influenced by the technology, energy, and cyclical sectors. The technology
sector was a source of weakness due to a lack of exposure to some of the
sector's best performing industries, such as networking and software companies.
It is difficult to reconcile these types of holdings with the Portfolio's yield
oriented, value strategy, inasmuch as these industries predominantly contain
growth companies which pay little or no dividends.
The energy sector of the Portfolio underperformed due to stock selection.
Holdings in this area are biased toward oil and oil service companies, such as
Mobil, Chevron, and McDermott International, which were negatively impacted by
company specific news. Mobil underperformed following reports that declining
prices for some of its key chemical products, and shutdowns at several U.S.
refineries hurt earnings. Chevron, also hurt by lower chemical prices suffered a
decline in refining profits last quarter. McDermott International shares fell
after the company said it expects to report a fiscal second quarter loss and
could cut its dividend. This company has since been eliminated from the Equity
Income Portfolio.
The cyclical sector enhanced total return, as holdings in auto and rail
stocks rallied sharply. General Motors and Chrysler were both up over 16%. Both
companies announced that third quarter profits more than doubled and easily
topped analyst expectations. Conrail stock appreciated about 40% due to its
pending merger with CSX and was the Portfolio's best performer.
EQUITY VALUE PORTFOLIO
Value investing, as measured by the Russell 1000 Value Index, performed
well in the fourth quarter by posting a 9.8% return. This capped-off a very
strong year as the Index returned 21.6%. The quarter's strong result was largely
attributable to the energy, utility and finance sectors, which comprise
approximately 60% of the Index's total weight. The energy stocks benefited from
the rising cost of crude oil and from generally better than expected earnings
from oil producers and service companies. Investors believe that increased
global demand will add to already strong profit growth. The utility and finance
sectors, which tend to be very interest rate sensitive, ascended due to falling
bond yields. The finance sector also was aided by brokerage and investment
firms, which posted strong earnings.
Performance of the Portfolio was enhanced by the utility and consumer
non-cyclical sectors, while the basic industry and consumer cyclical sectors
detracted from the quarter's performance. The utility sector returned
approximately 13% for the Portfolio and was the best performer for the quarter.
The primary determinants were telephone stocks which bounced back after
underperforming the previous nine months. In an environment where interest rates
are falling, the dividend yield is enhanced making these stocks very attractive
to investors. In addition, Federal regulators moved to allow the regional
telephone companies to continue levying access charges on long distance
providers. Stocks which directly contributed were AT&T Corp., NYNEX Corp., and
GTE Corp.
The consumer non-cyclical sector, dominated by health care related
companies such as HMO's, ethical drug companies and acute care providers,
benefited from the November election as Washington was kept status-quo. A
Republican controlled Congress makes any kind of health care reform less likely.
Now that such a reform is put to rest, investors are confident that managed care
providers will be able to raise premiums more easily and spend less on care,
ultimately helping the bottom line.
The basic industry sector has not had the ability to raise prices and is
also ailing from unsatisfactory levels of demand. Moreover, profits are being
squeezed as rising cost of raw materials, particularly sources of energy, are
causing profit margins to fall. The consumer cyclical sector fell prey to
expectations that economic growth will continue to slow. Retailing in particular
detracted from sector returns since holiday sales were not as robust as
originally anticipated.

GROWTH & INCOME PORTFOLIO
Growth & Income investors generally saw their best returns of the year in
the fourth quarter. The Lipper Growth & Income Index returned 7.8% for the
quarter and finished the year with a total return of over 20%. This marks only
the fourth time in the Index's 25 year history that it has gained over 20% for
two consecutive calendar years. Additionally, 1996 results compared favorably
with other investment styles, as measured by the Lipper Equity Income, Growth,
and Small Company Indices. One of the key factors in the relative strength of
Growth & Income funds in general was uncertainty over the state of the economy,
bringing investors' focus towards larger companies with stable earnings growth.
Typically, these companies are prominently represented in Growth & Income funds.
In the fourth quarter, the advance of the equity markets could be attributed to
an accommodative Federal Reserve, good earnings reports, and election results
which preserved the political balance in Washington.
Fourth quarter performance of the Growth & Income Portfolio was mixed as
weakness in the non-cyclical sector was mitigated by strength in the Portfolio's
basic industry and financial stocks. The non-cyclical area was hurt by stock
selection because company specific news on some larger holdings (Clorox and
Nike) was viewed unfavorably by investors. Clorox announced that it plans to
finance its proposed acquisition of Armor All Products with debt issuance. Some
felt that this may hurt its earnings somewhat in the near term. Nike shares
failed to keep pace with the market. Some analysts lowered their estimates for
fiscal second quarter earnings because of rising the company's operating costs.
Nike recently signed golf sensation Tiger Woods to a multimillion dollar
endorsement contract and also opened a new NikeTown store.
The basic industry sector was a source of value added. This can be
attributed to Putnam's strict growth criterion steering the Portfolio away from
the area's worst performing industries. The Portfolio had essentially no
exposure to specialty chemical and/or forest product stocks which were both
generally weak due to poor prospects for earnings growth. Finance stocks within
the Portfolio were particularly strong returning about 15% as a group. This
sector was led by money center banks such as BankAmerica and Citicorp which both
outperformed. These issues continue to benefit from stronger than anticipated
earnings and the positive sentiment created by declining interest rates.
EQUITY GROWTH PORTFOLIO
Growth Fund investing, as measured by the Lipper Growth Fund Index,
finished the year strongly with a fourth quarter total return of 5.8%. This
brings performance for all of 1996 to 17.5%. This performance is generally in
line with the 19.5% average return for equity funds tracked by Lipper, and is
well ahead of the average fixed income return of 4.7%. Moreover, annual results
were quite good relative to historical standards as calendar year returns for
the Growth Fund Index of better than 17% had occurred only twelve times since
1970. Some of the catalysts which propelled the equity markets to record highs
in the fourth quarter were declining interest rates, corporate profits generally
exceeding expectations, and mutual funds continuing to receive large cash flows
from investors.
Fourth quarter performance of the Growth Portfolio was most influenced by
the technology and consumer cyclical sectors. Technology was a source of value
added due to sector emphasis. Throughout the period, the Portfolio maintained a
relatively high weighting in this group, which generally outperformed. S&P 500
technology stocks returned about 13%, as investors, uncertain about the state of
the economy, focused on this group whose secular growth prospects still seem
relatively strong. Microsoft and 3Com were two of the Portfolio's best
performers in this sector. Microsoft, which had exhibited tremendous relative
strength all year, rallied an additional 25% in the fourth quarter due to
stronger than anticipated earnings. 3Com advanced about 22% after the company
stated that they expect increasing profit margins and sales growth for the next
few quarters.
The consumer cyclical sector of the Portfolio detracted from total return
from both sector allocation and stock selection perspectives. S&P 500 cyclical
stocks returned only 1.6% for the quarter and were among the broad market's
worst performing groups. This proved somewhat troublesome for the Portfolio,
which maintained a healthy allocation to the sector. In addition, company
specific news, particularly in the specialty
13
<PAGE> 8
retailing area, caused some issues to decline. Lowe's shares fell after the home
improvement retailer said fourth quarter earnings would fall below analysts'
expectations. CompUSA was hurt by slow sales growth for the quarter. Management
cited a shorter Christmas shopping season and consumer anticipation of new
products as key factors.
SPECIAL EQUITY PORTFOLIO
As the famous Hall of Fame catcher Yogi Berra once said, "It's deja-vu all
over again." There couldn't have been a more fitting phrase to summarize the
performance of small company stocks relative to their brethren large company
stocks, in 1996. The Russell 2000 Index, a small company index, returned 16.5%,
while the S&P 500 Index, a measure of large company stocks, returned 23.3%,
bettering the performance of small company stocks for the third consecutive
year. The relative underperformance of the small company stocks is largely
attributable to investors flocking to the comfort of more liquid, blue chip
names, due to uncertainty about the economy, interest rates, earnings, and to
relatively high valuations in the market. This frenzy for large company stocks
is not uncommon in late cycles of a bull market.
Despite this, 1996 was another year in which the Special Equity Portfolio
demonstrated superior results versus its benchmark, the Russell 2000 Index. More
impressive was the Portfolio's ability to post a return comparable to the S&P
500 Index. The multiple manager approach utilized within the Portfolio continues
to provide superior results, while reducing the risks associated with this style
of investing.
During the fourth quarter, the Portfolio was helped by the consumer
cyclical sector, while the industrial and basic industry sectors were primary
detractors. The consumer cyclical sector's outperformance was largely associated
with the Portfolio's exposure to air transportation, publishing and the trucking
stocks, with returns of approximately 11.7%, 12.5%, and 6.8%, respectively. The
air freight companies did well as volume either matched or exceeded investors
expected levels. The trucking and publishing stocks benefited from generally
strong earnings reports.
The largest detractor to performance was the industrial sector, led by
capital equipment, multiple industry and metal fabrication stocks. There was no
common underlying theme for this sector's performance as much as issues specific
to certain companies.
The basic industry sector's underperformance was linked to lackluster
levels of demand and a slowing global economic environment. The latter has made
it nearly impossible to raise prices on products that companies manufacture.
Moreover, the cost of materials needed to manufacture products, such as energy,
have increased, causing profit margins to decline.
AGGRESSIVE EQUITY PORTFOLIO
The fourth quarter proved turbulent for Aggressive Equity investors, as the
benchmark Russell 2000 Growth Index posted a .3% gain. October set the tone for
the quarter. Growth investors experienced broad losses largely due to investors
favoring more liquid, less volatile securities. Although November was more
profitable for Aggressive Equity investors, with positive returns, the trend
continued toward brand name blue chip issues, where returns were more favorable.
Growth oriented investors experienced a mediocre December, as the Russell 2000
Growth Index posted a gain of 2% for the final month of the year. Aggressive
Equity investments underperformed the benchmark for the quarter.
The Aggressive Equity Portfolio remained heavily weighted in technology,
and therefore did not partake in the gains of energy, the hottest sector of the
Russell 2000 Growth Index for the quarter. The Portfolio's technology issues had
mixed returns, with some stocks experiencing broad losses. Cascade
Communications, which makes equipment that links and routes phone calls within
computer networks, could not sustain blistering 1996 growth through the fourth
quarter, as the company announced lower than expected revenue. Sun Microsystems,
a supplier of high-performance workstations, received intense pressure from
rivals in the workstation market. Sun was prompted to slash prices, draining
profits and gross margins.
14
<PAGE> 9
Although Aggressive Equity investors generally underperformed in the
quarter, several issues in the Portfolio managed to enjoy significant gains
because investors favored issues with larger market capitalizations. Stocks of
larger companies are perceived as being more liquid in today's volatile market.
Intel Corp. posted big gains for the Portfolio over the quarter, as technology
analysts expect increased earnings in 1997. The semiconductor company's earnings
are poised for large gains because many corporate customers are planning
upgrades. Dell Computer Corp. has already benefited from increased corporate
demand. Revenue jumped 42%, helped in part by an 80% increase in notebook
computer sales. Microsoft was also included in the list of large cap performers
as it expects to increase spending on research and development six-fold in 1997,
creating the world's largest computer science lab. The software leader will
continue to develop new internet products including technology for letting
people make video phone calls using the Internet.
The Portfolio also enjoyed strong performance from pharmaceutical companies
in the consumer non-cyclical sector. In a quest to reduce costs, many managed
health-care companies are recommending more use of medications. The expectation
is to avoid expensive surgery or long-term care by solving a medical problem
earlier through medication. Bristol-Myers Squibb, producing drugs to treat
cholesterol, and Pfizer, producing drugs to combat depression, enjoyed strong
fourth quarter performance. Pharmaceutical companies also rallied in response to
November's election results, where a Republican controlled Congress has dimmed
prospects for any efforts by President Clinton for health care reform in his
second term.
INTERNATIONAL EQUITY PORTFOLIO
U.S. investors in foreign markets experienced lackluster yet positive
returns as 1996 came to a close, with the Morgan Stanley Capital International
Europe, Australia, and Far East (MSCI EAFE) Index up 1.7% for the final quarter
of the year. Of the 22 countries which make up the Index, 20 had positive
returns as measured in U.S. dollars, and all but one were positive when viewed
in terms of local currency. Spain, Norway and Finland led the way while Japan
trailed, posting its second negative 1996 quarterly return.
Japanese market losses were intensified by an 11.1% depreciation of the
yen. This depreciation, together with an easing monetary policy and a good
economic rebound for the country, should have helped boost Japan's stock market
over the past year. However, overriding factors caused Japanese returns to
falter. Among these were lagging profit growth, sluggish economic and corporate
restructuring, and concern in the markets over a tighter fiscal policy in the
new year as the government moves to repair the worst fiscal deficit of the major
industrial countries. On a prospective basis, although Japan's prospects
currently appear dim, this is one country whose markets can gain if and when
interest rates rise since such a trend will signal a powerful economic recovery.
In Europe, the news over the past year has been dominated by the European
Union's execution of strategies that will eventually bring about a single
currency for all. Specifically, the emphasis was on "convergence" -- narrowing
the gap in interest rates among the 15 member countries. The goal is for the
Italian lira, for example, to be no different than Germany's deutsche mark by
the year 2000. A side effect of convergence measures was a huge bond market
rally across the Continent as rates fell, with stock markets consequently
posting healthy gains. Another overriding trend in Europe is the beginning of
American-style corporate restructuring. This is unfamiliar territory for
traditionally paternalistic European corporations. However, underperforming
businesses should benefit as companies opt to enhance shareholder value by
aggressively cutting costs.
Looking forward, it is possible that Alan Greenspan's question about
"irrational exuberance" as applied to the U.S. market could also be relevant to
most of the developed markets outside Japan. There are signs that European
economies are finally emerging from two sluggish years with low inflation and
monetary authorities therefore unlikely to hike interest rates. Looming over the
Continent is the threat of a U.S. market correction should the Federal Reserve

DIVERSIFIED INVESTORS PORTFOLIOS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
Diversified Investors Portfolios (the "Series Portfolio"), a series trust
organized on September 1, 1993, under the laws of the State of New York, is
composed of thirteen different series that are, in effect, separate investment
funds: the Money Market Series, the High Quality Bond Series, the Intermediate
Government Bond Series, the Government/Corporate Bond Series, the Balanced
Series, the Equity Income Series, the Equity Value Series, the Growth & Income
Series, the Equity Growth Series, the Special Equity Series, the Aggressive
Equity Series, the High-Yield Bond Series, and the International Equity Series
(each a "Series"). The Declaration of Trust permits the Board of Trustees to
issue an unlimited number of beneficial interests in each Series. Investors in a
Series (e.g., investment companies, insurance company separate accounts and
common and commingled trust funds) will each be liable for all obligations of
that Series (and of no other Series). The High-Yield Bond Series and
International Equity Series commenced operations on August 22, 1995 and
September 29, 1995, respectively. The Equity Value Series and Aggressive Value
Series commenced operations on April 19, 1996.
The International Equity Series was established by a redemption of assets
in-kind, valued at $77,137,079 from the Non-U.S. Equity Fund for Participant
Directed Plans within the Capital Guardian Collective Trust for Employee Benefit
Plans, a bank collective trust fund established and maintained by Capital
Guardian Trust Company, which were immediately invested at market value into the
Portfolio. The transaction was a non-taxable event.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. SECURITY VALUATION
Short-term securities having remaining maturities of 60 days or less
are valued at amortized cost or original cost plus accrued interest
receivable, both of which approximate value. The amortized cost of a
security is determined by valuing it at original cost and thereafter
amortizing any discount or premium at a constant rate until maturity.
Securities traded on national securities exchanges are valued at the last
sales price as of the close of business on each day or at the closing bid
price for over-the-counter securities. Equity securities are valued at the
last sale price on the exchange on which they are primarily traded or at
the bid price on the NASDAQ system for unlisted national market issues, or
at the last quoted bid price for securities not reported on the NASDAQ
system. Bonds are valued at the last available price provided by an
independent pricing service for securities traded on a national securities
exchange. Bonds that are listed on a national securities exchange but are
not traded and bonds that are regularly traded in the over-the-counter
market are valued at the mean of the last available bid and asked prices by
an independent pricing service. All other securities will be valued at
their fair value as determined by the Board of Trustees.
B. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
Each Series, along with other affiliated entities of the investment
advisor, may enter into repurchase agreements with financial institutions
deemed to be creditworthy by the Series investment advisor, subject to the
seller's agreement to repurchase and the Series agreement to resell such
securities at a mutually agreed upon price. Securities purchased subject to
repurchase agreements are segregated at the custodian, and pursuant to the
terms of the repurchase agreement must have an aggregate market value
greater than or equal to 102% and 105% of domestic and international
securities, respectively, of the repurchase price plus accrued interest at
all times. If the value of the underlying securities falls below the value
of the repurchase price plus accrued interest, the Series will require the
seller to deposit additional collateral by the next business day. If the
request for additional collateral is not met or the seller defaults on its
repurchase obligation, the Series maintains the right to sell the
underlying securities at market
83
<PAGE> 78
DIVERSIFIED INVESTORS PORTFOLIOS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
B. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS (CONTINUED)
value and may claim any resulting loss against the seller. However, in the
event of default or bankruptcy by the seller, realization and/or retention
of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.
C. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
The accounting records of the International Equity Series are
maintained in U.S. dollars. The market values of foreign securities,
currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated to U.S.
dollars based on the prevailing exchange rates each business day. Income
and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated at prevailing
exchange rates when accrued or incurred. The Series does not isolate
realized gains and losses attributable to changes in exchange rates from
gains and losses that arise from changes in the market value of
investments. Such fluctuations are included with net realized and
unrealized gains or losses on investments. Net realized gains and losses on
foreign currency transactions represent net exchange gains and losses on
disposition of foreign currencies and foreign currency forward contracts
the difference between the amount of investment income receivable and
foreign withholding taxes receivable recorded on the Series' books and the
U.S. dollar equivalent of amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized
foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets
and liabilities other than investments in securities at fiscal year end and
foreign currency forward contracts, resulting from changes in the exchange
rate.
D. FOREIGN CURRENCY FORWARD CONTRACTS
Each Series may enter into foreign currency forward contracts and
forward cross currency contracts in connection with settling planned
purchases or sales of securities or to hedge the currency exposure
associated with some or all of the Series' portfolio securities. A foreign
currency forward contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and
sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a
foreign currency forward contract fluctuates with changes in forward
currency exchange rates. Foreign currency forward contracts are marked to
market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Series as an
unrealized gain or loss. When a foreign currency forward is extinguished,
through delivery or offset by entering into another foreign currency
forward contract, the Series records a realized gain or loss equal to the
difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and
the value of the contract at the time it was extinguished or offset. These
contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss
reflected in the Series' Statement of Assets and Liabilities and the
Statement of Operations. In addition, the Series could be exposed to risk
if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if
the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
E. OPTIONS
Each Series, with the exception of the Money Market Series, may
purchase and write (sell) call and put options on securities indices for
the purpose of protecting against an anticipated decline in the value of
the securities held by that Series. Index options are marked to market
daily and the change in value is recorded by the Series as an unrealized
gain or loss in the "Statement of Assets and Liabilities". A realized gain
or loss equal to the difference between the exercise price and the value of
the index is recorded by the Series upon cash settlement of the option. The
use of index options may expose the Series to the risk that trading in such
options may be interrupted if trading in certain securities included in the
index is interrupted or the value of the securities in the index may not
move in direct correlation with the movements of the Series portfolio. In
addition, there is the risk the Series may not be able to enter into a
closing transaction because of an illiquid secondary market.
84
<PAGE> 79
DIVERSIFIED INVESTORS PORTFOLIOS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
F. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
It is the Series policy to comply with the applicable provisions of
the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is
required.
G. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME
Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis (the day
after the date the order to buy or sell is executed). Dividend income is
recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the
accrual basis and includes amortization of premium and discount on
investments. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are
recorded on the identified cost basis.
All of the net investment income and realized and unrealized gains and
losses from security transactions are determined on each valuation day and
allocated pro rata among the investors in a Series at the time of such
determination.
H. OPERATING EXPENSES
The Series Portfolio accounts separately for the assets, liabilities
and operations of each Series. Expenses directly attributable to a Series
are charged to that Series, while expenses attributable to all Series are
allocated among them.
I. OTHER
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 those
estimates.

3. FEES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES (CONTINUED)
The Advisor manages the assets of each Series of the Series Portfolio
pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement (the "Advisory Agreement") with the
Series Portfolio with respect to each Series. Subject to such further policies
as the Board of Trustees may determine, the Advisor provides general investment
advice to each Series. For its services under the Advisory Agreement, the
Advisor receives from each Series fees accrued daily and paid monthly at an
annual rate equal to the percentages specified in the table below of the
corresponding Series' average daily net assets. The Advisor is currently waiving
a portion of its investment advisory fee.
For each Series, the Advisor has entered into an Investment Subadvisory
Agreement (each a "Subadvisory Agreement") with the subadvisors listed in the
table below (each a "Subadvisor", collectively the "Subadvisors"). It is the
responsibility of a Subadvisor to make the day-to-day investment decisions of
the Series and to place the purchase and sales orders for securities

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Trustees and Owners of Beneficial Interests of the
Diversified Investors Portfolios:
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of
Diversified Investors Portfolios (comprising, respectively, the Money Market
Portfolio, High Quality Bond Portfolio, Intermediate Government Bond Portfolio,
Government/Corporate Bond Portfolio, Balanced Portfolio, Equity Income
Portfolio, Equity Value Portfolio, Growth & Income Portfolio, Equity Growth
Portfolio, Special Equity Portfolio, Aggressive Equity Portfolio, High Yield
Bond Portfolio and International Equity Portfolio) (collectively the
"Portfolios") as of December 31, 1996, and the related statements 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 for each of the Portfolios other than the
Equity Value Portfolio and Aggressive Equity Portfolio for which the periods are
from April 19, 1996 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 1996 and the
financial highlights for each of the periods presented. These financial
statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Portfolios'
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, 1996, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. 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 the
respective Portfolios constituting Diversified Investors Portfolios as of
December 31, 1996, the results of their operations, the changes in their net
assets, and the financial highlights for the periods referred to above in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

CALVERT RESPONSIBLY INVESTED BALANCED PORTFOLIO
Dear Investor:
Changing expectations for the strength of the economy and direction of
interest rates made for very volatile financial markets during 1996. Stock
market investors emerged with strong gains; the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock
Index gained almost 23% for the year. The bond market see-sawed, with the yield
on the benchmark 30-year Treasury bond closing the year just three-quarters of a
percent above where it began. While many investors believed the Federal Reserve
would intervene to tighten monetary policy, the Fed took no action after cutting
the federal funds rate by 25 basis points in late January.

FUND PERFORMANCE AND STRATEGY
We maintained the Portfolio's target asset allocation of roughly 60%
equities and 40% fixed-income securities throughout 1996. Equity holdings were
the strongest contributors to the Fund's return, which is not surprising given
the strength of the stock market.
Equity Investments--NCM Capital Management
We continued to focus on companies in the technology and financial services
industries. The financial services group turned in good gains as profits were
strong due to continued low interest rates. Some of our technology
holdings--semiconductors, chips and equipment--were hurt by unfavorable supply
and demand conditions, but our technology position as a whole was positive for
performance for the year due to strong gains from EMC Corp and BMC Software.

Consumer staples companies (food, drugs and personal care items) also did
well as investors moved to these more defensive stocks. While we did not have a
large commitment to the consumer staples group, our holdings of Gillette and
Hershey contributed good gains. Energy services companies also advanced as
improved supply and demand conditions boosted profit potential. In this group,
Smith International was a strong performer.
The Portfolio invests a small portion of assets (slightly less than 3% at
year-end) in foreign securities. For this period, our holdings of Umbono
Investment Corp., a South African company, were hurt by the continued
devaluation of the currency. We are optimistic that the bulk of the currency
decline has passed, and we maintain a favorable opinion of this stock's
investment potential. We are also pleased to have an opportunity to participate
in Africa's economic growth.
Fixed-Income Investments--Calvert Asset Management Company
We kept the Portfolio's interest rate sensitivity in line with our
benchmark. The bond market was very volatile throughout 1996, and we did not
believe it was prudent to take a decidedly conservative or aggressive stance
until a clearer picture emerged regarding the strength of the economy. The
Portfolio's weighted average maturity was 13 years at the end of 1996, compared
to 14 years at the end of 1995.
OUTLOOK
The markets will likely continue to exhibit a high degree of volatility.
Stocks' extended valuations and uncertainty about whether companies can meet
earnings estimates could dampen investors "exuberance." We expect the return on
stocks for 1997 will come closer to historical averages than the exceptional
returns of 1995 and 1996. The bond market is likely to remain skittish, at least
for the first half of the year, as investors still struggle to reconcile low
inflation numbers with strong labor reports. The Portfolio's blend of stocks and
bonds should help to smooth the ups and downs of specific markets, sectors and
securities.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
================
To the Board of Directors of Acacia Capital Corporation and Shareholders of
Calvert Responsibly Invested Balanced Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
Calvert Responsibly Invested Balanced Portfolio (one of the portfolios
comprising the Acacia Capital Corporation), including the portfolio of
investments, as of December 31, 1996, and the related statement of operations
for the year then ended, statement of changes in net assets for each of the two
years in the period then ended and financial highlights for each of the three
years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial
highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights
based on our audits. The financial highlights for each of the preceding years
were audited by other auditors whose report dated January 31, 1994 expressed an
unqualified opinion thereon.
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 investments owned as of
December 31, 1996, by correspondence with the custodian. 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
Calvert Responsibly Invested Balanced Portfolio as of December 31, 1996, the
results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and financial
highlights for the respective periods stated in the first paragraph in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Bond Portfolio outstanding at February 23, 1996. CRI Bond Portfolio's net assets
at that date, including $1,419 of unrealized appreciation, were combined with
those of the Portfolio. The aggregate net assets of the Portfolio and CRI Bond
Portfolio immediately before the acquisition were $121,161,865 and $3,670,445,
respectively.
Security Valuation: Securities listed or traded on a national securities
exchange are valued at the last reported sale price. Foreign security prices,
furnished by quotation services in the security's local currency, are translated
using the current U. S. dollar exchange rate. Unlisted securities and listed
securities for which the last sale price is not available are valued at the most
recent bid price or based on a yield equivalent obtained from the securities'
market maker. Municipal securities are valued utilizing the average of bid
prices or at bid prices based on a matrix system (which considers such factors
as security prices, yields, maturities and ratings) furnished by dealers through
an independent pricing service. Other securities and assets for which market
quotations are not available or deemed inappropriate are valued in good faith
under the direction of the Board of Directors.
Repurchase Agreements: The Portfolio may enter into repurchase agreements with
recognized financial institutions or registered broker/dealers and, in all
instances, holds underlying securities with a value exceeding the total
repurchase price, including accrued interest.
Security Transactions and Investment Income: Security transactions are accounted
for on trade date. Realized gains and losses are recorded on an identified cost
basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of
dividends on certain foreign securities, as soon as the Portfolio is informed of
the ex-dividend date. Interest income, accretion of discount and amortization of
premium are recorded on an accrual basis.
Foreign Currency Transactions: The Portfolio's accounting records are maintained
in U. S. dollars. For valuation of assets and liabilities on each date of net
asset value determination, foreign denominations are translated into U. S.
dollars using the current exchange rate. Security transactions, income and
expenses are converted at the prevailing rate of exchange on the date of the
event. The effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign denominated
securities is included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on
securities. Other foreign currency gains or losses are reported separately.
Distributions to Shareholders: Distributions to shareholders are recorded by the
Portfolio on ex-dividend date. Dividends from net investment income and
distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are paid at least
annually. Distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations
which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles, accordingly,
periodic

reclassifications are made within the Portfolio's capital accounts to reflect
income and gains available for distribution under income tax regulations.
The Fund designates $6,500,000 as capital gain dividends for taxable year ended
December 31, 1996.
Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Expense Offset Arrangements: The Portfolio has an arrangement with its custodian
bank whereby the custodian's fees are paid indirectly by credits earned on the
Portfolio's cash on deposit with the bank. Such deposit arrangement is an
alternative to overnight investments.
Federal Income Taxes: No provision for federal income or excise tax is required
since the Portfolio intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment
company under the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute substantially all of
its earnings.
