THE RBB FUND, INC.
ANNUAL INVESTMENT ADVISER'S REPORT
Although this summer's weather remained on the cool side, the debate over
Federal Reserve monetary policy became quite heated as the year progressed. By
early July, a majority of Fed watchers were convinced that a rise in short-term
interest rates was imminent, and pointed to July's strong employment report as
evidence. The only question seemed to be the size and timing of the Fed's move.
Would the Fed wait until its August meeting, or would they immediately raise the
funds rate 25 or 50 basis points? Certainly, they pointed out, the jump in
nonfarm payroll (+700,000 jobs) and the spike in hourly earnings (+9 cents) was
cause for immediate action by the Fed to curb the economy and prevent a
rekindling of inflation. However, as has often happened this year, economic
reports that seemed to suggest either a business expansion or a slowdown were
followed quite closely by reports that suggested otherwise. It seemed that after
the winter's government shut downs and snowstorms, the predictability of
economic numbers became a lost art in 1996.
This same type of reversal of expectations occurred again in July following
the strong jobs report. Within only a few weeks, signs of slower economic
activity had tempered the certainty of a rate hike, and by the time Alan
Greenspan spoke at his Humphrey-Hawkins testimony, he speculated that, "looking
forward, there are a number of reasons to expect demands to moderate and
economic activity to settle back toward a more sustainable pace in the months
ahead." The Federal Reserve's forecast for growth is 2.5%-2.75% this year,
falling to 1.75%-2.25% next year; while inflation should average about
3.0%-3.25% this year, and 2.75%-3.0% next year. Greenspan's remarks were very
well received by the markets, and stocks and bonds rose sharply into early
August. In addition, the expectation of higher short-term interest rates eased
considerably, and by the time the Fed met on August 20, there was almost no one
in the "tighter" camp.
Short-term taxable interest rates have held steady at 5.25% (federal funds
rate) for the last two quarters. The Federal Reserve's last move was on January
31, when they eased monetary policy to encourage economic growth, following news
of a very weak fourth quarter 1995. At that time, market sentiment was biased
towards additional easings of monetary policy and the short-term yield curve
offered no incentive to extend. By mid-April, however, strong jobs reports
worried the markets that the Fed would not only stop easing but might consider
tightening. In response, the yield curve turned positive and rewarded longer
average maturities with yield pick ups of 20-30 basis points. The Money Market
and Government portfolios took advantage of this opportunity by moving their
maturities to the 50-60 day range. For much of the last two quarters,
investments of 3-12 months have outyielded overnight rates by 25-50 basis
points.
In the short-term municipal market, the usually predictable pattern of
seasonal influences was interrupted this year by the federal budget impasse last
winter, the possibility of changes to the tax code and volatility in the stock
and bond markets. As in the taxable market, sentiment leaned towards higher
rates, but the short-term municipal yield curve remained stubbornly flat. Yields
on daily demand notes fluctuated widely during the year, between 2%-4%,
depending on the day, month and level of supply versus demand. In June, for
example, as supply fell, demand notes rose to yields over 4%, but as supply
reentered the market in July, yields fell to 2.35%. By the end of August, New
York City, California and Texas were all settling large new issues. The
Municipal Portfolio took advantage of these new offerings to extend its average
weighted maturity to the 50-day range.
As always, all the Fund's portfolios emphasized high quality securities and
highly liquid structures, in addition to providing competitive daily returns.
Our credit research department employs fifteen professionals to approve and
monitor the creditworthiness of every issue/issuer in which the portfolios
invest. Finally, as of the date of this report, there are a number of proposed
amendments to Rule 2a-7, the regulations which govern money market funds.The
anticipated effective date of October 3 has been postponed by the SEC. We are
following the situation closely and will be reporting to you in the future about
the substance and timing of those changes.

THE RBB FUND, INC.
MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AUGUST 31, 1996
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 12.35 billion shares are currently classified into sixty-six classes. Each
class represents an interest in one of seventeen investment portfolios of the
Fund. 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, the
Janney Montgomery Scott Money Family, the n/i Family, and the Bradford Family.
The Bradford Municipal Money Market Shares represent an interest in the
Municipal Money Market Portfolio, which is 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 Portfolio seeks to maintain net asset value
per share at $1.00.
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
are distributed at least annually. Income distributions and capital gain
distributions are determined in accordance with income 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 the 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) 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 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.

TAX INFORMATION FOR SHAREHOLDERS
(UNAUDITED)
In the twelve months ended August 31, 1996 (the end of the Fund's fiscal year),
100% of the dividends paid by the Municipal Money Market Portfolio were
exempt-interest dividends for purposes of federal income taxes and free from
such taxes. However, approximately 47% of such dividends was attributable to
interest on private activity bonds which must be included in federal alternative
minimum taxable income for the purpose of determining liability for federal
alternative minimum tax.
In January 1997, you will be furnished with a schedule showing the yearly
percentage breakdown by state or U.S. possession of the source of interest
earned by the Municipal Money Market Portfolio in 1996. It is suggested that you
consult your tax adviser concerning the applicability of state and local taxes
to dividends paid by the Fund during the year.
