SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT

SEMI-ANNUAL INVESTMENT ADVISER'S REPORT
Investor sentiment reversed course during the last few months of 1995. In
the second half of the year, investors believed that the Federal Reserve had
successfully engineered a "soft landing" and expected President Clinton and
Congress to agree on a plan that would balance the federal budget by 2002. As
1996 began, however, fears of recession began to re-emerge and the budget
negotiations, which had become very intense in December and January, all but
disappeared as politics and state primaries took center stage.
The lack of economic data due to the recently ended federal government
shutdown has added to the difficulty of assessing the current economic
environment.It is clear, however, that the economy is not robust. While retail
sales over the past three months suggest that real consumer spending should be
growing at a 2.0-2.5% rate, the manufacturing economy continues to be weak, as
evidenced by the National Association of Purchasing Managers' reading below 50.
But even this indicator has stabilized, suggesting that inventory reduction
programs have run their course. Nonetheless, business confidence remains high
and firms continue to invest in producer durable goods such as computers and
machine tools. Available evidence further points to continued strength in
exports, which are benefitting from the earlier low level of the dollar and the
high quality of U.S.-produced goods. The federal government remains the weak
link in a modest growth forecast and the budget impasse only exacerbates the
effect on U.S. output as the government buys fewer goods and services.
The nation's weak economic conditions fostered a declining interest rate
environment for the six-month period ended February 29, 1996. During this
period, the Federal Reserve reduced the federal funds rate to 5.25% from 5.75%
and the discount rate to 5.00% from 5.25%. Volatile market conditions
dramatically altered the shape of the yield curve (3-months to 30-years) from a
spread of 117 points on September 1, 1995 to a steepening bias of 145 basis
points on February 29, 1996. As the treasury market rallied, lowering the yield
on the long bond to 6%, yield spreads on mortgages widened initially but by
February 29, spreads narrowed below their six-month averages. Overall, this
sector underperformed as prepayments and duration concerns increased selling
pressure. The corporate sector realized excellent returns as heavy investor
demand absorbed all new issuance plus strengthening credit quality forced yield
spreads to tighten considerably.
Taking all the sources of final demand together, modest economic growth is
still the most likely forecast -- 2.5% real GDP growth in 1996, with the first
half of the year being relatively weak and the second half of the year
strengthening. Even this modest growth is going to require some help from the
Fed. The Fed's two federal funds rate cuts of 25 basis points each in 1995 were
not enough. With the dramatic fall in long-term interest rates, the flattening
of the yield curve through 1995 is a threat to the economy and raises the
specter of recession. Some steepening is necessary, which would indicate the
addition of liquidity to the system. We expect that steepening to come from a
combination of lower short-term interest rates and slightly higher long-term
rates.
Tax-exempt money market funds experienced record growth during the six
months ended February 29, 1996. Assets hit new all-time highs in each month and
ended the period at $134.7 billion, up $19.6 billion or 17% from last year. This
surge in assets can be attributed to uncertainty over changes to the tax code
and flat tax proposals, the Washington budget impasse, new T+3 settlement rule
changes and an inverted yield curve.
Investor concerns about credit quality created enormous demand for high
quality paper during the period. The pressure on the Japanese banking system, as
well as the ratings downgrades on several Japanese banks, widened the spreads
between Japanese letters of credit and European or domestic letters of credit to
over 30 basis points.
Tax-free money fund yields trended upwards in the fourth quarter as supply
increased. Yields hit a six-month peak at year-end due to seasonal window
dressing pressures. Weaker than expected economic reports and a lack of supply
caused yields to decline early in the new year.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FEBRUARY 29, 1996
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The RBB Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company. The Fund
was incorporated in Maryland on February 29, 1988.
The Fund has authorized capital of thirty billion shares of common stock of
which 12.2 billion shares are currently classified into sixty-one classes. Each
class represents an interest in one of seventeen investment portfolios of the
Fund, fifteen of which are currently in operation. The classes have been grouped
into fifteen separate "families", eight of which have begun investment
operations: the RBB Family, the BEA Family, the Sansom Street Family, the
Bedford Family, the Cash Preservation Family, Janney Montgomery Scott Money
Funds, the Warburg Pincus Family and the Bradford Family. The Bedford Family
represents interests in four portfolios, three of which are covered in this
report.
A) SECURITY VALUATION -- Portfolio securities are valued under
the amortized cost method, which approximates current market value. Under
this method, securities are valued at cost when purchased and thereafter a
constant proportionate amortization of any discount or premium is recorded
until maturity of the security. Regular review and monitoring of the
valuation is performed in an attempt to avoid dilution or other unfair
results to shareholders. The Fund seeks to maintain net asset value per
share at $1.00 for these portfolios.
B) SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME -- Security
transactions are accounted for on the trade date. The cost of investments
sold is determined by use of the specific identification method for both
financial reporting and income tax purposes. Interest income is recorded on
the accrual basis. Certain expenses, principally distribution, transfer
agency and printing, are class specific expenses and vary by class.
Expenses not directly attributable to a specific portfolio or class are
allocated based on relative net assets of each portfolio and class,
respectively.
C) DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Dividends from net investment
income are declared daily and paid monthly. Any net realized capital gains
will be distributed at least annually. Income distributions and capital
gain distributions are determined in accordance with tax regulations which
may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
D) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- No provision is made for Federal taxes
as it is the Fund's intention to have each portfolio continue to qualify
for and elect the tax treatment applicable to regulated investment
companies under the Internal Revenue Code and make the requisite
distributions to its shareholders which will be sufficient to relieve it
from Federal income and excise taxes.
E) REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- Money market instruments may be
purchased subject to the seller's agreement to repurchase them at an agreed
upon date and price. The seller will be required on a daily basis to
maintain the value of the securities subject to the agreement at not less
than the repurchase price. The agreements are conditioned upon the
collateral being deposited under the Federal Reserve book-entry system or
with the Fund's custodian or a third party sub-custodian.
F) USE OF ESTIMATES -- 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 and disclosure of contingent 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.
