ANNUAL INVESTMENT ADVISER'S REPORT
One year ago, economic and financial crises around the world threatened the
continuation of the eight-year expansion of the U.S. economy. With the
assistance, however, of lower interest rates, low inflation and a consumer
driven spending spree, the U.S. economy moved ahead at a brisk pace through
August of 1999. First quarter gross domestic product (GDP) grew by 4.5%, and
while the second quarter slipped to 1.6%, estimates for the third quarter range
as high as 5%. During the same period, price and wage pressures remained tame.
The GDP deflator reported a 1.4% increase through the first half of the year,
and consumer and wholesale prices for August showed moderate 2.3% increases on a
year-over-year basis. Energy costs, in particular, accounted for most of the
increases in CPI and PPI, as the price of oil reached $25 a barrel.
With the threat of global turmoil behind them, the Federal Reserve began to
rescind its three monetary policy easings effected last fall. Twice in the last
three months, the Fed raised short-term interest rates by a quarter point. The
current federal funds rate of 5.25% should, according to the Fed, "markedly
diminish the risk of rising inflation."
The Fed's tightenings had an immediate impact on the taxable money markets.
Overnight rates increased commensurate with the Fed's moves, while longer-dated
securities with maturities out to one year experienced larger gains. The result
was a steeper yield curve with yields on one-year obligations exceeding 6%. The
Y2K factor also came into play this year. Investments into January, 2000 often
carried incentives of 40-50 basis points versus December, 1999 maturities, as
investors sought extra liquidity for year-end uncertainties. The U.S. Treasury
and agency yield curves also steepened and the spreads widened between the two
sectors. The Money Market and Government Obligations portfolios maintained
moderately extended maturities for most of the year as the market tended to
overvalue the magnitude of future Fed tightenings. This allowed the portfolios
to maintain a longer positioning, even in an environment of rising rates. On
August 31, the Money Market Portfolio and the Government Obligations Money
Market Portfolio had assets of $2,739,120,331 and $482,396,209, respectively.
The municipal money markets also experienced the effects of the Fed's
efforts to slow the economy to a more sustainable pace. One-year municipal notes
rose to a 3.65% yield at the end of August versus yields under 3% early in 1999.
Variable rate obligations, with one and seven-day puts used for liquidity,
continued their pattern of trading in a range between 3-4% for most of the year.
Strong investor demand easily absorbed all new issuance during the period. While
total municipal money fund assets declined slightly to $193 billion on August
31, that was up from $175 billion a year ago. On August 31, assets in Municipal
Money Market Portfolio and New York Municipal Money Market Portfolio stood at
$265,031,464 and $28,139,889, respectively.
The Fund, like any business, could be affected if the computer systems on
which it relies do not properly process information beginning on January 1,
2000. While year 2000 issues could have a negative effect on the Fund, the
Fund's investment adviser is currently working to avoid such problems. The
Fund's investment adviser is also working with other systems providers and
vendors servicing the Portfolios to determine their systems' ability to handle
Year 2000 problems. There is no guarantee, however, that systems will work
properly on or after January 1, 2000. Year 2000 problems may also hurt issuers
whose securities the Fund holds or securities markets generally.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of The RBB Fund, Inc.:
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets, and the related
statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial
highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Money Market, Municipal Money Market, Government Obligations Money Market and
New York Municipal Money Market Portfolios, separately managed portfolios of The
RBB Fund, Inc. (the "Fund"), at August 31, 1999, the results of their operations
for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two
years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the
periods presented, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as
"financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards, which require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August
31, 1999 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provides a reasonable
basis for the opinion expressed above.

THE JANNEY MONTGOMERY SCOTT MONEY FUNDS
THE RBB FUND, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AUGUST 31, 1999
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 20.03 billion shares are currently classified into ninety-seven classes.
Each class represents an interest in one of sixteen investment portfolios of the
Fund. The classes have been grouped into sixteen separate "families", nine of
which have begun investment operations: the Principal Family, the Select Family,
the Sansom Street Family, the Bedford Family, the Cash Preservation Family, the
Janney Montgomery Scott Family, the n/i numeric investors Family, the Boston
Partners Family and the Schneider Family. The Janney Montgomery Scott Family
represents interests in four Portfolios, 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 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 principals.
D) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- No provision is made for Federal taxes as
it is the Fund's intention to have each portfolio to 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 plus accrued interest. If the value of the
underlying securities falls below 102% of the value of the purchase price
plus accrued interest, the Fund will require the seller to deposit
additional collateral by the next Fund business day. In the event that the
seller under the agreement defaults on its repurchase obligation or fails
to deposit sufficient collateral, the Fund has the contractual right,
subject to the requirements of applicable bankruptcy and insolvency laws,
to sell the underlying securities and may claim any resulting loss from
the seller. 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) NEW YORK MUNICIPAL OBLIGATIONS -- Certain New York state and New
York city municipal obligations in the Portfolios may be obligations of
issuers which rely in whole or in part on New York state or New York city

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
revenues, real property taxes, revenues from health care institutions, or
obligations secured by mortgages on real property. Consequently, the
possible effect of economic conditions in New York or of changes in New
York regulations on these obligations must be considered.
G) 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.
NOTE 2. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES AND RELATED PARTIES
Pursuant to Investment Advisory Agreements, BlackRock Institutional
Management Corporation ("BIMC"), an indirect majority-owned subsidiary of PNC
Bank, serves as investment adviser to the portfolios described herein, and also
serves as administrator to the Money Market and Government Obligations Money

Portfolios, BIMC and PFPC have entered into a delegation agreement, whereas PFPC
has agreed to perform Administration and Accounting services for an annual fee

TAX INFORMATION FOR SHAREHOLDERS
(UNAUDITED)
In the twelve months ended August 31, 1999 (the end of the Fund's fiscal year),
100% of the dividends paid by the Municipal Money Market and New York Municipal
Money Market Portfolios were exempt-interest dividends for purposes of federal
income taxes and free from such taxes. However, approximately 55% and 17% 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 2000, 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 and New York Municipal Money Market
Portfolios in 1999. 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
