    The  prospectus dated May  1, 1995 (the "Prospectus")  of the Equity Growth,
Emerging  Growth  and  Aggressive  Equity  Portfolios  of  the  Morgan   Stanley
Institutional  Fund, Inc.  (the "Fund")  is hereby  amended and  supplemented by
adding the following paragraph to page 24 before the paragraph with the  heading
"REDEMPTION OF SHARES":

        EXCESSIVE  TRADING.   Frequent  trades involving  either substantial
    fund assets  or  a  substantial  portion of  your  account  or  accounts
    controlled  by you can  disrupt management of a  Portfolio and raise its
    expenses. Consequently, in the interest  of all the stockholders of  the
    Portfolio   and  the  Portfolio's  performance,  the  Fund  may  in  its
    discretion bar a stockholder that engages in excessive trading of shares
    of a  Portfolio from  further purchases  of shares  of the  Fund for  an
    indefinite  period. The Fund considers excessive trading to be more than
    one purchase and sale involving shares of the same Portfolio of the Fund
    within any 120-day period. For example, exchanging shares of  Portfolios
    of  the Fund as follows: exchanging shares  of Portfolio A for shares of
    Portfolio B,  then  exchanging  shares  of Portfolio  B  for  shares  of
    Portfolio  C and  again exchanging shares  of Portfolio C  for shares of
    Portfolio B within a  120-day period amounts  to excessive trading.  Two
    types   of  transactions   are  exempt  from   these  excessive  trading
    restrictions: (1) trades  exclusively between  money market  portfolios;
    and  (2)  trades done  in connection  with  an asset  allocation service
    managed or advised by MSAM and/or any of its affiliates.

    The  prospectus dated May  1, 1995 (the "Prospectus")  of the Equity Growth,
Emerging Growth  and  Aggressive Equity  Portfolios  (the "Portfolios")  of  the
Morgan  Stanley  Institutional Fund,  Inc. (the  "Fund")  is hereby  amended and
supplemented as follows:

    The last paragraph under the heading "PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS" is deleted and
replaced with the following:

        Although none of the Portfolios  will invest for short-term  trading
    purposes,  investment securities may  be sold from  time to time without
    regard to  the length  of time  they have  been held.  For the  Emerging
    Growth  Portfolio, it  is anticipated that,  under normal circumstances,
    the annual portfolio turnover rate will not exceed 100%. For the  Equity
    Growth  and Aggressive Equity Portfolios,  the annual portfolio turnover
    rate is  expected  to  exceed 100%.  High  portfolio  turnover  involves
    correspondingly greater transaction costs that will be borne directly by
    the  respective  Portfolio.  In addition,  high  portfolio  turnover may
    result in more capital gains which would be taxable to the  shareholders
    of  the  respective  Portfolio.  The  tables  set  forth  in  "Financial
    Highlights" present the Portfolio's historical turnover rates.

    The first paragraph under the heading "FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS" is deleted  and
replaced with the following:

        The  following tables  provide financial  highlights for  the Equity
    Growth, Emerging Growth and Aggressive Equity Portfolios for each of the
    periods presented and are part of the Fund's financial statements  which
    are  included  in the  Fund's Statement  of Additional  Information (the
    "SAI"). The  financial  highlights for  each  of the  periods  presented
    except  for the periods ended  June 30, 1995 have  been audited by Price
    Waterhouse LLP, whose unqualified report thereon is also included in the
    SAI. Additional performance  information for  the foregoing  Portfolios,
    except  the  Aggressive Equity  Portfolio,  is contained  in  the Fund's
    December 31, 1994 Annual Report  to Shareholders (the "Annual  Report").
    The  Annual Report and the SAI are available at no cost from the Fund at
    the address  and  telephone number  noted  on  the cover  page  of  this
    Prospectus.  The Aggressive Equity  Portfolio was not  operational as of
    December 31, 1994.  Subsequent to  October 31, 1992,  the Fund's  fiscal
    year end was changed to December 31. The following information should be
    read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto.

*The Adviser has agreed to a reduction in the fees payable to it as Adviser  and
 to  reimburse the Portfolios, if necessary, if  such fees would cause the total
 annual operating expenses as a percentage of average daily net assets to exceed
 (i) 0.80% for the Equity Growth  Portfolio, (ii) 1.25% for the Emerging  Growth
 Portfolio,  or (iii) 1.00% for the Aggressive Equity Portfolio. Absent such fee
 waivers, total operating expenses as  a percentage of each Portfolio's  average
 daily  net assets would have been (i) 0.89% for the Equity Growth Portfolio and
 (ii) 1.26% for the  Emerging Growth Portfolio for  the year ended December  31,
 1994  and would be estimated to be 1.13% of the average daily net assets of the
 Aggressive Equity Portfolio. As  a result of  these reductions, the  investment
 advisory  fees stated  above are lower  than the contractual  fees stated under
 "Management of  the  Fund."  For  further information  on  Fund  expenses,  see
 "Management of the Fund."

+Estimated.

    The  purpose of this  table is to  assist the investor  in understanding the
various expenses that an investor in the Fund will bear directly or  indirectly.
The  fees and expenses for the Equity  Growth and the Emerging Growth Portfolios
are based on actual figures for the  year ended December 31, 1994. The  expenses
and  fees for the Aggressive Equity Portfolio are based on estimates that assume
that the daily net assets for the first year will be approximately  $35,000,000.
"Other  Expenses" include Board of Directors' fees and expenses, amortization of
organization costs, filing  fees, professional fees,  and costs for  shareholder
reports.

    The  following  example illustrates  the expenses  that you  would pay  on a
$1,000 investment assuming (1) a 5% annual rate of return and (2) redemption  at
the  end of each time period. As noted in the table above, the Portfolios charge
no redemption fees of any kind. The example is based on total operating expenses
of the Portfolios after fee waivers.

*Because the Aggressive  Equity Portfolio has  recently become operational, the
 Fund has not projected expenses beyond the three-year period shown.

    THIS  EXAMPLE SHOULD  NOT BE CONSIDERED  A REPRESENTATION OF  PAST OR FUTURE
EXPENSES OR  PERFORMANCE. ACTUAL  EXPENSES MAY  BE GREATER  OR LESS  THAN  THOSE
SHOWN.

    The  Fund intends  to comply  with all  state laws  that restrict investment
company expenses. Currently, the  most restrictive state  law requires that  the
aggregate  annual expenses  of an  investment company  shall not  exceed two and
one-half percent (2 1/2%) of  the first $30 million  of average net assets,  two
percent (2%) of the next $70 million of average net assets, and one and one-half
percent (1 1/2%) of the remaining net assets of such investment company.

    The  Adviser has agreed to a reduction in  the amounts payable to it, and to
reimburse the Portfolios, if  necessary, if in  any fiscal year  the sum of  the
Portfolios' expenses exceeds the limit set by applicable state law.

   - The MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES PORTFOLIO seeks  to produce as high a  level
     of  current income  as is  consistent with  the preservation  of capital by
     investing  primarily  in  a  variety  of  investment-grade  mortgage-backed
     securities.

   - The  MUNICIPAL  BOND PORTFOLIO  seeks to  produce a  high level  of current

   - The REAL YIELD PORTFOLIO  seeks to produce a  high total return  consistent
     with  preservation of  capital by investing  in fixed  income securities of
     issuers throughout the world, including U.S. issuers.

   MONEY MARKET:

   - The MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO  seeks to maximize  current income and  preserve
     capital  while maintaining  high levels  of liquidity  through investing in

INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT

    Morgan  Stanley Asset Management  Inc., a wholly  owned subsidiary of Morgan
Stanley Group  Inc.,  which,  together  with  its  affiliated  asset  management
companies,  at December 31, 1994 had approximately $48.7 billion in assets under
management as  an  investment  manager  or  as  a  fiduciary  adviser,  acts  as
investment  adviser to the Fund  and each of its  portfolios. See "Management of
the Fund -- Investment Adviser" and "Management of the Fund -- Administrator."

HOW TO INVEST

    Shares of each  Portfolio are  offered directly  to investors  at net  asset
value  with no sales commission or 12b-1 charges. Share purchases may be made by
sending investments  directly to  the Fund.  The minimum  initial investment  is
$500,000  for  the Equity  Growth Portfolio,  $250,000  for the  Emerging Growth
Portfolio  and  $500,000  for  the  Aggressive  Equity  Portfolio.  The  minimum
subsequent  investment  for  each  Portfolio  is  $1,000  (except  for automatic
reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions for which there are no
minimums). The  minimum  investment levels  may  be waived  for  certain  Morgan
Stanley  employees and customers at the discretion of the Adviser. See "Purchase
of Shares."

HOW TO REDEEM

    Shares of each Portfolio may be redeemed  at any time, without cost, at  the
net  asset value per share of the Portfolio next determined after receipt of the
redemption request. The redemption price may  be more or less than the  purchase
price.  If a shareholder  reduces its total  investment in shares  in the Equity
Growth Portfolio to less  than $500,000, the Emerging  Growth Portfolio to  less
than  $100,000, or  the Aggressive Equity  Portfolio to less  than $500,000, the
investment may be subject to redemption. See "Redemption of Shares."

RISK FACTORS

    The  investment  policies  of  the  Portfolios  entail  certain  risks   and
considerations of which an investor should be aware. Because the Emerging Growth
Portfolio  seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in small-
to medium-sized companies which are more vulnerable to financial and other risks
than larger,  more  established companies,  investments  in that  Portfolio  may
involve  a higher degree  of risk and  price volatility than  the general equity
markets. The Aggressive  Equity Portfolio  may invest  in small-to  medium-sized
companies  to a lesser extent. The Equity Growth, Emerging Growth and Aggressive
Equity Portfolios may invest in securities of foreign issuers, which are subject
to  certain  risks  not  typically  associated  with  domestic  securities.  See
"Investment Objectives and Policies" and "Additional Investment Information." In
addition,  the  Portfolios  may  invest  in  repurchase  agreements,  lend their
portfolio securities and  may purchase  securities on a  when-issued basis.  The
Portfolios  may invest  in covered  call options  and may  also invest  in stock
options, stock futures contracts and options on stock futures contracts, and may
invest in forward  foreign currency  exchange contracts to  hedge currency  risk
associated  with  investment  in  non-U.S.  dollar-denominated  securities.  The
Aggressive Equity Portfolio may invest  in convertible debentures and  specialty
equity-linked  securities,  such as  PERCS, ELKS  or  LYONs, of  U.S., and  to a
limited extent, foreign issuers,  which may involve risks  in addition to  those
associated  with  equity  securities.  The  Aggressive  Equity  Portfolio  is  a
non-diversified portfolio under the Investment  Company Act of 1940, as  amended
(the  "1940 Act") and therefore may invest a greater proportion of its assets in
the securities of a smaller number of  issuers and may, as a result, be  subject
to  greater  risk  with respect  to  its portfolio  securities.  See "Investment
Limitations." See "Additional Investment Information." Each of these  investment
strategies  involves  specific  risks  which  are  described  under  "Investment
Objectives and  Policies" and  "Additional  Investment Information"  herein  and
under  "Investment  Objectives  and  Policies" in  the  Statement  of Additional
Information.

                       INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

    The  investment objectives of  each Portfolio are  described below, together
with the policies the Fund employs  in its efforts to achieve these  objectives.
Each  Portfolio's investment objective is a  fundamental policy which may not be
changed without the approval of a majority of the Portfolio's outstanding voting
securities. There  is  no  assurance  that  the  Portfolios  will  attain  their
objectives. The investment policies described below are not fundamental policies
and may be changed without shareholder approval.

THE EQUITY GROWTH PORTFOLIO

    The  Portfolio's  investment  objective  is  to  provide  long-term  capital
appreciation by investing primarily in  growth-oriented common stocks of  medium
and  large capitalization  U.S. corporations and,  to a  limited extent, foreign
corporations. Common  stocks  for this  purpose  consist of  common  stocks  and
equivalents,  such as securities convertible  into common stocks, and securities
having common stock  characteristics, such  as rights and  warrants to  purchase
common  stocks. Under normal  circumstances, the Portfolio  will invest at least
65% of the value of its total assets in common stocks.

    The Adviser employs a flexible and eclectic investment process in pursuit of
the Portfolio's investment  objectives. In selecting  stocks for the  Portfolio,
the  Adviser  concentrates  on  a  universe  of  rapidly  growing,  high quality
companies and lower, but accelerating, earnings growth situations. The Adviser's
universe of  potential investments  generally  comprises companies  with  market
capitalizations  of $750  million or  more. The  Portfolio is  not restricted to
investments  in  specific  market  sectors.   The  Adviser  uses  its   research
capabilities, analytical resources and judgment to assess economic, industry and
market  trends, as well as individual  company developments, to select promising
growth investments for the Portfolio. The Adviser concentrates on companies with
strong, communicative managements and clearly defined strategies for growth.  In
addition,  the  Adviser  rigorously  assesses  company  developments,  including
changes in strategic direction, management  focus and current and likely  future
earnings  results. Valuation is  important to the  Adviser but is  viewed in the
context of  prospects for  sustainable  earnings growth  and the  potential  for
positive  earnings surprises vis-a-vis consensus  expectations. The Portfolio is
free to invest  in any common  stock that, in  the Adviser's judgment,  provides
above average potential for capital appreciation.

    In   selecting  investments  for  the   Portfolio,  the  Adviser  emphasizes
individual security  selection. The  Portfolio's investments  will generally  be
diversified  by number  of issues but  concentrated sector  positions may result
from  the  investment  process.  The   Portfolio  has  a  long-term   investment
perspective; however, the Adviser may take advantage of short-term opportunities
that are consistent with the Portfolio's objective by selling recently purchased
securities which have increased in value.

    The  Portfolio  may invest  in common  stock  and convertible  securities of
domestic and foreign  corporations. However,  the Portfolio does  not expect  to
invest  more than 25% of its total assets  at the time of purchase in securities
of foreign companies. The Portfolio may invest in securities of foreign  issuers
directly  or in  the form  of American  Depositary Receipts  ("ADRs"). Investors
should recognize that  investing in foreign  companies involves certain  special
considerations  which  are  not  typically  associated  with  investing  in U.S.
companies.  See  "Additional  Investment  Information"  herein  and  "Investment
Objectives  and Policies -- Forward Foreign  Currency Exchange Contracts" in the
Statement of Additional Information.

                                       10
<PAGE>
    The Portfolio may invest in convertible securities of domestic and,  subject
to  the above  restrictions, foreign  issuers on  occasions when,  due to market
conditions, it  is more  advantageous to  purchase such  securities rather  than
common  stock.  The convertible  securities in  which  the Portfolio  may invest
include any  debt securities  or preferred  stock which  may be  converted  into
common  stock or  which carry  the right  to purchase  common stock. Convertible
securities entitle the holder to exchange the securities for a specified  number
of  shares of  common stock,  usually of the  same company,  at specified prices
within a certain period of time and  to receive interest or dividends until  the
holder  elects to exercise the conversion privilege. Since the Portfolio invests
in both common stocks and convertible securities, the risks of investing in  the
general  equity  markets  may  be  tempered  to  a  degree  by  the  Portfolio's
investments in convertible securities which are often not as volatile as  common
stock.

    Any  remaining assets  not invested  as described  above may  be invested in
securities or obligations, including derivative  securities, that are set  forth
in "Additional Investment Information" below.

THE EMERGING GROWTH PORTFOLIO

    The  Portfolio's  investment  objective  is  to  provide  long-term  capital
appreciation by investing primarily in growth-oriented common stocks of small-to
medium-sized  domestic   corporations  and,   to  a   limited  extent,   foreign
corporations.  The  production  of  any current  income  is  incidental  to this
objective. Such companies generally have annual gross revenues ranging from  $10
million  to $750 million.  The common stocks  in which the  Portfolio may invest
consist of the  common stocks  of any  class or  series of  domestic or  foreign
corporations  or  any  similar equity  interest,  such as  trust  or partnership
interests. These investments may  or may not  pay dividends and  may or may  not
carry voting rights.

    The  Adviser  employs  a  flexible  investment  program  in  pursuit  of the
Portfolio's investment objective. The Portfolio is not restricted to investments
in specific market sectors. The Portfolio will invest in small- to  medium-sized
companies  that are early in their life  cycle, but which have the potential, in
the Adviser's  judgment,  to become  major  enterprises. The  Adviser  uses  its
judgment  and  research capabilities  to assess  economic, industry,  market and
company  developments  to  select  investments  in  promising  emerging   growth
companies  that are expected to  benefit from new technology  or new products or
services. In  addition, the  Adviser  looks for  special developments,  such  as
research  discoveries,  changes in  customer  demand, rejuvenated  management or
basic  changes  in   the  economic  environment.   These  situations  are   only
illustrative  of the types of investments  the Portfolio may make. The Portfolio
is free to invest in any common  stock which in the Adviser's judgment  provides
above-average  potential for  capital appreciation.  An important  factor in the
achievement of  the  Portfolio's  investment objective  will  be  the  Adviser's
ability to forecast market performance.

    The  Portfolio intends to manage its  investments actively to accomplish its
investment  objective.   Since  the   Portfolio  has   a  long-term   investment
perspective,  the  Adviser  does  not intend  to  respond  to  short-term market
fluctuations or to  acquire securities  for the purpose  of short-term  trading;
however,  the Adviser  may take advantage  of short-term  opportunities that are
consistent with its objective.

    The Portfolio  may invest  in  common stock  and convertible  securities  of
domestic  corporations and of foreign  corporations. However, the Portfolio does
not expect to invest more than 25% of  its total assets at the time of  purchase
in  securities of foreign  companies. The Portfolio may  invest in securities of
foreign issuers directly  or in the  form of American  Depositary Receipts.  The
Portfolio  may  enter into  forward  foreign currency  exchange  contracts which
provide for the purchase  or sale of foreign  currencies in connection with  the

                                       11
<PAGE>
settlement  of  foreign  securities  transactions  or  to  hedge  the underlying
currency exposure related to foreign  investments. The Portfolio will not  enter
into these commitments for speculative purposes. Investors should recognize that
investing in foreign companies involves certain special considerations which are
not  typically  associated with  investing  in U.S.  companies.  See "Additional
Investment Information"  herein  and  "Investment  Objectives  and  Policies  --
Forward Currency Exchange Contracts" in the Statement of Additional Information.

    The  Portfolio may  also invest in  convertible securities  of domestic and,
subject to the  above restrictions, foreign  issuers on occasions  when, due  to
market  conditions, it is  more advantageous to  purchase such securities rather
than common stock. The convertible securities in which the Portfolio may  invest
include  any  debt securities  or preferred  stock which  may be  converted into
common stock or  which carry  the right  to purchase  common stock.  Convertible
securities  entitle the holder to exchange the securities for a specified number
of shares of  common stock,  usually of the  same company,  at specified  prices
within  a certain period of time and  to receive interest or dividends until the
holder elects  to exercise  the  conversion privilege.  The Portfolio  will  not
invest in debt securities that are not rated at least investment grade by either
Standard  &  Poor's Corporation  or Moody's  Investors  Service, Inc.  Since the
Portfolio invests in both common stocks and convertible securities, the risks of
investing in the  general equity  markets may  be tempered  to a  degree by  the
Portfolio's  investments  in  convertible  securities, which  are  often  not as
volatile as equity securities.

    Any remaining assets  not invested  as described  above may  be invested  in
securities  or obligations, including derivative  securities, that are set forth
in "Additional Investment Information" below.

THE AGGRESSIVE EQUITY PORTFOLIO

    The Portfolio's investment objective is  to provide capital appreciation  by
investing  primarily  in a  non-diversified  portfolio of  corporate  equity and
equity-linked securities. Equity and equity-linked securities consist of  common
and  preferred stocks and their  equivalents, securities convertible into common
stocks, securities  having  common stock  characteristics,  such as  rights  and
warrants  to purchase common stocks,  options, futures, and specialty securities
such as ELKS,  LYONs, PERCS,  etc. of  U.S., and  to a  limited extent,  foreign
issuers.  The Aggressive Equity Fund is a non-diversified portfolio and thus can
be more heavily weighted in fewer stocks than the Equity Growth Portfolio, which
is a  diversified  portfolio.  See "Additional  Investment  Information."  Under
normal circumstances, the Portfolio will invest at least 65% of the value of its
total assets in equity and equity-linked securities.

    The Adviser employs a flexible and eclectic investment process in pursuit of
the Portfolio's investment objective. In selecting securities for the Portfolio,
the  Adviser  concentrates  on  a  universe  of  rapidly  growing,  high quality
companies and lower, but accelerating, earnings growth situations. The Adviser's
universe of  potential investments  generally  comprises companies  with  market
capitalizations  of  $500  million  or more  but  smaller  market capitalization
securities may be purchased from time  to time. The Portfolio is not  restricted
to  investments  in  specific  market sectors.  The  Adviser  uses  its research
capabilities, analytical resources and judgment to assess economic, industry and
market trends, as well as  individual company developments, to select  promising
investments  for  the  Portfolio.  The Adviser  concentrates  on  companies with
strong, communicative managements and clearly defined strategies for growth.  In
addition,  the  Adviser  rigorously  assesses  company  developments,  including
changes in strategic direction, management  focus and current and likely  future
earnings  results. Valuation is  important to the  Adviser and is  viewed in the
context of prospects for sustainable

                                       12
<PAGE>
earnings growth  and the  potential for  positive earnings  surprises  vis-a-vis
consensus  expectations.  The  Portfolio is  free  to  invest in  any  equity or
equity-linked security that, in the  Adviser's judgment, provides above  average
potential for capital appreciation.

    The  Portfolio may  from time to  time and consistent  with applicable legal
requirements sell securities  short that it  owns (i.e., "against  the box")  or
borrows. See "Additional Investment Information".

    In   selecting  investments  for  the   Portfolio,  the  Adviser  emphasizes
individual  security  selection.  Overweighted   sector  positions  and   issuer
positions  may result from the investment process. See "Investment Limitations."
The Portfolio has a long-term  investment perspective; however, the Adviser  may
take  advantage  of  short-term  opportunities  that  are  consistent  with  the
Portfolio's objective  by  selling  recently  purchased  securities  which  have
increased in value.

    The  Portfolio may invest in equity and equity-linked securities of domestic
and foreign corporations. However, the Portfolio does not expect to invest  more
than  25% of its total  assets at the time of  purchase in securities of foreign
companies. The Portfolio may invest in securities of foreign issuers directly or
in the form of American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs"). Investors should recognize
that investing  in foreign  companies  involves certain  special  considerations
which  are  not  typically  associated with  investing  in  U.S.  companies. See
"Additional  Investment  Information"  herein  and  "Investment  Objectives  and
Policies  -- Forward  Foreign Currency Exchange  Contracts" in  the Statement of
Additional Information.

    Any remaining assets  not invested  as described  above may  be invested  in
securities  or obligations, including derivative  securities, that are set forth
in "Additional Investment Information" below.

                       ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT INFORMATION

    WHEN-ISSUED AND DELAYED  DELIVERY SECURITIES.   The Portfolios may  purchase
securities  on a  when-issued or delayed  delivery basis.  In such transactions,
instruments are bought with payment and  delivery taking place in the future  in
order  to secure what is considered to be  an advantageous yield or price at the
time of the transaction. Delivery of  and payment for these securities may  take
as  long as a month or more after  the date of the purchase commitment, but will
take place  no more  than 120  days after  the trade  date. The  Portfolio  will
maintain  with the Custodian  a separate account with  a segregated portfolio of
high-grade debt  securities  or  cash in  an  amount  at least  equal  to  these
commitments. The payment obligation and the interest rates that will be received
are  each  fixed at  the  time a  Portfolio enters  into  the commitment  and no
interest accrues to the  Portfolio until settlement. Thus,  it is possible  that
the  market value at  the time of settlement  could be higher  or lower than the
purchase price if  the general  level of  interest rates  has changed.  It is  a
current  policy  of the  Portfolios not  to  enter into  when-issued commitments
exceeding, in the aggregate,  15% of the Portfolio's  net assets other than  the
obligations created by these commitments.

    REPURCHASE  AGREEMENTS.  The Portfolios may enter into repurchase agreements
with brokers, dealers or  banks that meet the  credit guidelines established  by
the  Fund's Board of Directors. In a  repurchase agreement, the Portfolio buys a
security from a seller  that has agreed  to repurchase it  at a mutually  agreed
upon  date and price, reflecting the interest rate effective for the term of the
agreement. The term of these agreements  is usually from overnight to one  week,
and  never exceeds  one year.  Repurchase agreements  may be  viewed as  a fully
collateralized loan  of money  by the  Portfolio to  the seller.  The  Portfolio
always receives securities, with a market

                                       13
<PAGE>
value  at  least equal  to the  purchase price  (including accrued  interest) as
collateral and this value is maintained during the term of the agreement. If the
seller defaults and the collateral value  declines, the Portfolio might incur  a
loss.  If bankruptcy proceedings  are commenced with respect  to the seller, the
Portfolio's realization  upon the  collateral  may be  delayed or  limited.  The
aggregate  of  certain repurchase  agreements and  certain other  investments is
limited as set forth under "Investment Limitations."

    LOANS OF PORTFOLIO SECURITIES.  The Portfolios may lend their securities  to
brokers, dealers, domestic and foreign banks or other financial institutions for
the purpose of increasing its net investment income. These loans must be secured
continuously by cash or equivalent collateral, or by a letter of credit at least
equal  to the  market value  of the securities  loaned plus  accrued interest or
income. There may be a risk of delay in recovery of the securities or even  loss
of  rights  in  the  collateral  should  the  borrower  of  the  securities fail
financially. A  Portfolio  will  not enter  into  securities  loan  transactions
exceeding,  in the aggregate, 33  1/3% of the market  value of its total assets.
For  more  detailed  information  about  securities  lending,  see   "Investment
Objectives and Policies" in the Statement of Additional Information.

    DEPOSITARY  RECEIPTS.  The Portfolios may invest indirectly in securities of
foreign companies through sponsored or unsponsored American Depositary  Receipts
("ADRs"),  Global  Depositary Receipts  ("GDRs") and  other types  of Depositary
Receipts (which,  together  with ADRs  and  GDRs, are  hereinafter  collectively
referred  to as "Depositary  Receipts"), to the  extent such Depositary Receipts
are or become available. Depositary Receipts are not necessarily denominated  in
the  same currency as the underlying securities. In addition, the issuers of the
securities underlying  unsponsored  Depositary  Receipts are  not  obligated  to
disclose  material information  in the  U.S. and,  therefore, there  may be less
information available regarding such issuers and there may not be a  correlation
between  such information and the market  value of the Depositary Receipts. ADRs
are Depositary Receipts typically issued  by a U.S. financial institution  which
evidence  ownership interests in  a security or  pool of securities  issued by a
foreign issuer. GDRs and other types of Depositary Receipts are typically issued
by foreign banks or trust  companies, although they also  may be issued by  U.S.
financial  institutions, and evidence ownership interests  in a security or pool
of securities  issued by  either a  foreign or  a U.S.  corporation.  Generally,
Depositary  Receipts  in  registered  form  are designed  for  use  in  the U.S.
securities market and Depositary Receipts in bearer form are designed for use in
securities markets outside  the U.S.  For purposes of  a Portfolio's  investment
policies,  the Portfolio's investments in Depositary  Receipts will be deemed to
be investments in the underlying securities.

    TEMPORARY INVESTMENTS.  During periods in which the Adviser believes changes
in economic, financial or political conditions make it advisable, the Portfolios
may reduce their holdings in equity and other securities for temporary defensive
purposes and the Portfolios may invest  in certain short-term (less than  twelve
months  to maturity) and  medium-term (not greater than  five years to maturity)
debt securities or may hold cash. The short-term and medium-term debt securities
in which  the Portfolio  may invest  consist of  (a) obligations  of the  United
States   or   foreign  country   governments,   their  respective   agencies  or
instrumentalities;  (b)   bank   deposits  and   bank   obligations   (including
certificates  of  deposit, time  deposits  and bankers'  acceptances)  of United
States or foreign country banks denominated  in any currency; (c) floating  rate
securities   and  other  instruments  denominated  in  any  currency  issued  by
international development agencies; (d) finance company and corporate commercial
paper and  other short-term  corporate  debt obligations  of United  States  and
foreign  country corporations meeting the  Portfolio's credit quality standards;
and (e) repurchase agreements with banks and broker-dealers with respect to such
securities. For temporary  defensive purposes, the  Portfolios intend to  invest
only in short-

                                       14
<PAGE>
term  and medium-term debt  securities that the  Adviser believes to  be of high
quality, i.e., subject to relatively low  risk of loss of interest or  principal
(there  is  currently  no rating  system  for  debt securities  to  most foreign
countries).

    MONEY MARKET INSTRUMENTS.   Each Portfolio is permitted  to invest in  money
market   instruments,  although  the  Portfolios  intend  to  stay  invested  in
securities  satisfying  their  primary   investment  objective  to  the   extent
practical.  Each  Portfolio  may  make money  market  investments  pending other
investment or settlement  for liquidity,  or in adverse  market conditions.  The
money market investments permitted for the Portfolios include obligations of the
United  States  Government and  its agencies  and instrumentalities;  other debt
securities; commercial paper including bank obligations; certificates of deposit
(including Eurodollar certificates of  deposit); and repurchase agreements.  For
more detailed information about these money market investments, see "Description
of Securities and Ratings" in the Statement of Additional Information.

    FORWARD  FOREIGN  CURRENCY  EXCHANGE  CONTRACTS.   The  Emerging  Growth and
Aggressive Equity Portfolios  may enter into  forward foreign currency  exchange
contracts  ("forward contracts"),  that provide for  the purchase or  sale of an
amount of a specified foreign currency at a future date. Purposes for which such
contracts may be used include protecting against a decline in a foreign currency
against the U.S.  dollar between  the trade date  and settlement  date when  the
Portfolio  purchases or sells non-U.S. dollar denominated securities, locking in
the U.S. dollar value of dividends declared on securities held by the  Portfolio
and  generally  protecting  the U.S.  dollar  value  of securities  held  by the
Portfolio against exchange rate fluctuation. Such contracts may also be used  as
a  protective  measure  against the  effects  of fluctuating  rates  of currency
exchange and  exchange control  regulations. While  such forward  contracts  may
limit losses to the Portfolio against exchange rate fluctuations, they will also
limit  any gains that  may otherwise have been  realized. Such forward contracts
are derivative  securities,  in  which  the Portfolio  may  invest  for  hedging
purposes.  See "Investment Objectives and  Policies -- Forward Currency Exchange
Contracts" in the Statement of Additional Information.

    STOCK OPTIONS,  FUTURES CONTRACTS  AND OPTIONS  IN FUTURES  CONTRACTS.   The
Equity  Growth and Aggressive  Equity Portfolios may  write (i.e., sell) covered
call options on portfolio  securities. The Equity  Growth and Aggressive  Equity
Portfolios  may write covered put options  on portfolio securities. By selling a
covered call option, the Portfolio would become obligated during the term of the
option to deliver the securities underlying the option should the option  holder
choose  to exercise the  option before the option's  termination date. In return
for the call it has written, the  Portfolio will receive from the purchaser  (or
option  holder) a premium  which is the  price of the  option, less a commission
charged by a broker. The Portfolio  will keep the premium regardless of  whether
the  option is exercised. By selling a  covered put option, the Portfolio incurs
an obligation to buy  the security underlying the  option from the purchaser  of
the  put at the option's exercise price at any time during the option period, at
the purchaser's  election (certain  options  written by  the Portfolio  will  be
exercisable  by  the  purchaser only  on  a  specific date).  A  call  option is
"covered" if  the Portfolio  owns  the security  underlying  the option  it  has
written or has an absolute or immediate right to acquire the security by holding
a  call option on such security, or  maintains a sufficient amount of cash, cash
equivalents or liquid securities to purchase the underlying security.

    Generally, a  put option  is  "covered" if  the  Fund maintains  cash,  U.S.
Government securities or other high grade debt obligations equal to the exercise
price  of the option, or if  the Fund holds a put  option on the same underlying
security with a similar or higher exercise price.

                                       15
<PAGE>
    When the Portfolio writes  covered call options, it  augments its income  by
the premiums received and is thereby hedged to the extent of that amount against
a  decline in the price of the underlying securities. The premiums received will
offset a  portion  of  the potential  loss  incurred  by the  Portfolio  if  the
securities  underlying the  options are  ultimately sold  by the  Portfolio at a
loss. However, during the  option period, the Portfolio  has, in return for  the
premium  on the option, given up  the opportunity for capital appreciation above
the exercise price should the market price of the underlying security  increase,
but  has retained the risk  of loss should the  price of the underlying security
decline.

    The Equity Growth and the Aggressive Equity Portfolios may write put options
to receive the premiums paid by purchasers (when the Adviser wishes to  purchase
the  security underlying  the option  at a price  lower than  its current market
price, in which case  the Portfolio will  write the covered  put at an  exercise
price  reflecting the lower purchase  price sought) and to  close out a long put
option position.

    The Equity Growth and the Aggressive Equity Portfolios may also purchase put
options on  their  portfolio securities  or  call options.  When  the  Portfolio
purchases  a call option it acquires the right to buy a designated security at a
designated price (the "exercise price"), and when the Portfolio purchases a  put
option  it acquires  the right  to sell  a designated  security at  the exercise
price, in each  case on  or before a  specified date  (the "termination  date"),
which  is usually not more than nine months  from the date the option is issued.
The Portfolio may purchase call options to close out a covered call position  or
to  protect  against an  increase  in the  price  of a  security  it anticipates
purchasing. The Portfolio may purchase put options on securities which it  holds
in its portfolio to protect itself against decline in the value of the security.
If the value of the underlying security were to fall below the exercise price of
the put purchased in an amount greater than the premium paid for the option, the
Portfolio  would incur no  additional loss. The Portfolio  may also purchase put
options to close out written  put positions in a  manner similar to call  option
closing  purchase transactions.  There are  no other  limits on  the Portfolio's
ability to purchase call and put options.

    The Equity  Growth  and the  Aggressive  Equity Portfolios  may  enter  into
futures  contracts and options on futures contracts to remain fully invested and
to  reduce  transaction  costs.  The  Portfolio  may  also  enter  into  futures
transactions as a hedge against fluctuations in the price of a security it holds
or  intends to acquire, but  not for speculation or  for achieving leverage. The
Portfolio may  enter into  futures contracts  and options  on futures  contracts
provided  that not more than  5% of the Portfolio's total  assets at the time of
entering  into  the  contract  or  option  is  required  as  deposit  to  secure
obligations  under such contracts  and options, and provided  that not more than
20% of the  Portfolio's total  assets in the  aggregate is  invested in  futures
contracts  and options on futures  contracts (and in options  in the case of the
Equity Growth and the Aggressive Equity Portfolios).

    The Equity  Growth and  the Aggressive  Equity Portfolios  may purchase  and
write  call  and  put  options  on futures  contracts  that  are  traded  on any
international exchange, traded over-the-counter  or which are synthetic  options
or futures or equity swaps, and may enter into closing transactions with respect
to  such  options to  terminate an  existing  position. An  option on  a futures
contract gives  the purchaser  the right  (in return  for the  premium paid)  to
assume a position in a futures contract (a long position if the option is a call
and  a short position if the  option is a put) at  a specified exercise price at
any time during the term  of the option. The  Portfolio will purchase and  write
options on futures contracts for identical purposes to those set forth above for
the  purchase of a futures contract (purchase of  a call option or sale of a put
option) and the sale of a futures contract (purchase of a put option or sale  of
a call option), or to close out a long or short position in future contracts.

    RISKS  ASSOCIATED WITH OPTIONS AND FUTURES.  Options, futures and options on
futures are derivative securities, in which the Portfolio may invest for hedging
purposes, as well as to remain  fully invested and to reduce transaction  costs.
Investing for the latter two purposes may be considered speculative. The primary
risks associated with the use of options, futures and options on futures are (i)
imperfect  correlation between the change in market  value of the stocks held by
the Portfolio  and the  prices of  futures and  options relating  to the  stocks
purchased or sold by the Portfolio; and (ii) possible lack of a liquid secondary
market  for an option or a futures contract and the resulting inability to close
a futures position which could have an adverse impact on the Portfolio's ability
to hedge. In the opinion of the Board of Directors, the risk that the  Portfolio
will  be unable  to close  out a  futures position  or options  contract will be
minimized by only entering  into futures contracts  or options transactions  for
which there appears to be a liquid secondary market.

    FOREIGN  INVESTMENT  RISK  FACTORS.    The  Portfolios  may  invest  in U.S.
dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers trading in U.S. markets and the
Emerging  Growth  and  Aggressive  Equity  Portfolios  may  invest  in  non-U.S.
dollar-denominated  securities of  foreign issuers. Investment  in securities of
foreign issuers  and in  foreign branches  of domestic  banks involves  somewhat
different  investment  risks than  those affecting  securities of  U.S. domestic
issuers. There may  be limited  publicly available information  with respect  to
foreign  issuers,  and  foreign issuers  are  not generally  subject  to uniform
accounting, auditing  and financial  standards  and requirements  comparable  to
those   applicable  to  U.S.  companies.  There  may  also  be  less  government
supervision and regulation of foreign  securities exchanges, brokers and  listed
companies  than in the  U.S. Many foreign  securities markets have substantially
less volume  than U.S.  national securities  exchanges, and  securities of  some
foreign  issuers are less liquid and more volatile than securities of comparable
domestic issuers. Brokerage commissions and  other transaction costs on  foreign
securities  exchanges  are  generally  higher than  in  the  U.S.  Dividends and
interest paid by foreign issuers may be subject to withholding and other foreign
taxes, which may decrease the net  return on foreign investments as compared  to
dividends  and interest paid to  the Portfolio by domestic  companies. It is not
expected that a Portfolio or  its shareholders would be  able to claim a  credit
for  U.S. tax  purposes with  respect to  any such  foreign taxes.  See "Taxes."
Additional  risks  include  future  political  and  economic  developments,  the
possibility that a foreign jurisdiction might impose or change withholding taxes
on  income  payable  with  respect  to  foreign  securities,  possible  seizure,
nationalization or expropriation of the  foreign issuer or foreign deposits  and
the  possible  adoption of  foreign governmental  restrictions such  as exchange
controls.

    Investments in securities of foreign  issuers are frequently denominated  in
foreign  currencies  and,  since  the  Emerging  Growth  and  Aggressive  Equity
Portfolios may also  temporarily hold  uninvested reserves in  bank deposits  in
foreign currencies, the value of the Portfolios' assets measured in U.S. dollars
may  be affected favorably or unfavorably  by changes in currency exchange rates
and in  exchange control  regulations, and  the Portfolios  may incur  costs  in
connection with conversions between various currencies.

SHORT SALES

    The  Aggressive Equity Portfolio may from time to time sell securities short
consistent with applicable legal requirements. A short sale is a transaction  in
which  the Portfolio would  sell securities it  either owns or  has the right to
acquire at no  added cost (i.e.,  "against the box")  or does not  own (but  has
borrowed)  in anticipation of a  decline in the market  price of the securities.
When the Portfolio makes  a short sale of  borrowed securities, the proceeds  it
receives  from the sale will  be held on behalf of  a broker until the Portfolio
replaces the borrowed

                                       17
<PAGE>
securities. To deliver the securities to  the buyer, the Portfolio will need  to
arrange  through  a  broker to  borrow  the  securities and,  in  so  doing, the
Portfolio will  become obligated  to replace  the securities  borrowed at  their
market  price at the  time of the  replacement, whatever that  price may be. The
Portfolio may have to pay  a premium to borrow the  securities and must pay  any
dividends or interest payable on the securities until they are replaced.

    The  Portfolio's obligation to replace the securities borrowed in connection
with a short sale will be secured  by collateral deposited with the broker  that
consists  of cash, U.S.  Government securities or other  liquid, high grade debt
obligations. In  addition, if  the short  sale  is not  "against the  box",  the
Portfolio  will place in  a segregated account  with the Custodian  an amount of
cash, U.S. Government securities  or other liquid,  high grade debt  obligations
equal  to the difference, if any, between (1) the market value of the securities
sold at  the  time they  were  sold short  and  (2) any  cash,  U.S.  Government
securities  or other liquid, high grade debt obligations deposited as collateral
with the broker in connection with the short sale (not including the proceeds of
the short sale). Short sales by the Portfolio involve certain risks and  special
considerations.  Possible losses from short sales  differ from losses that could
be incurred from a purchase of a  security, because losses from short sales  may
be  unlimited, whereas  losses from  purchases can  equal only  the total amount
invested.

CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES, WARRANTS AND EQUITY-LINKED SECURITIES

    The Portfolios  may invest  in securities  such as  convertible  securities,
preferred  stock,  warrants  or  other  securities  exchangeable  under  certain
circumstances for  shares  of  common stock.  Warrants  are  instruments  giving
holders the right, but not the obligation, to buy shares of a company at a given
price during a specified period.

    The  Aggressive  Equity Portfolio  may  invest in  equity-linked securities,
including, among others,  PERCS, ELKS or  LYONs, which are  securities that  are
convertible  into  or the  value of  which is  based upon  the value  of, equity
securities upon certain terms and conditions. The amount received by an investor
at maturity of such  securities is not fixed  but is based on  the price of  the
underlying  common stock. It is  impossible to predict whether  the price of the
underlying common stock  will rise  or fall.  Trading prices  of the  underlying
common stock will be influenced by the issuer's operational results, by complex,
interrelated  political,  economic, financial,  or  other factors  affecting the
capital markets, the  stock exchanges on  which the underlying  common stock  is
traded  and the market segment of which the issuer is a part. In addition, it is
not possible to predict how equity-linked securities will trade in the secondary
market, which is fairly developed and liquid. The market for such securities may
be  shallow,  however,  and  high  volume  trades  may  be  possible  only  with
discounting.  In addition to the foregoing  risks, the return on such securities
depends on the creditworthiness  of the issuer of  the securities, which may  be
the  issuer of the underlying  securities or a third  party investment banker or
other lender. The creditworthiness of  such third party issuer of  equity-linked
securities may, and often does, exceed the creditworthiness of the issuer of the
underlying  securities.  The advantage  of  using equity-linked  securities over
traditional equity and debt securities is  that the former are income  producing
vehicles  that  may provide  a higher  income  than the  dividend income  on the
underlying equity securities  while allowing some  participation in the  capital
appreciation  of the  underlying equity  securities. Another  advantage of using
equity-linked securities is that they may be used for hedging to reduce the risk
of investing in the generally more volatile underlying equity securities.

    The following are three examples of equity-linked securities. The  Portfolio
may  invest in  the securities  described below  or other  similar equity-linked
securities.

                                       18
<PAGE>
    PERCS.  Preferred Equity  Redemption Cumulative Stock ("PERCS")  technically
are  preferred  stock  with  some characteristics  of  common  stock.  PERCS are
mandatorily convertible into common stock after a period of time, usually  three
years,  during which  the investors' capital  gains are capped,  usually at 30%.
Commonly, PERCS may be  redeemed by the  issuer at any time  or if the  issuer's
common  stock is trading  at a specified  price level or  better. The redemption
price starts at the beginning  of the PERCS duration period  at a price that  is
above  the cap by the amount of the extra dividends the PERCS holder is entitled
to receive relative  to the  common stock  over the  duration of  the PERCS  and
declines  to the cap price shortly before maturity of the PERCS. In exchange for
having the cap on capital gains and  giving the issuer the option to redeem  the
PERCS  at any time or  at the specified common  stock price level, the Portfolio
may be compensated with a substantially  higher dividend yield than that on  the
underlying  common stock.  Investors, such as  the Portfolio,  that seek current
income, find PERCS attractive because a PERCS provides a higher dividend  income
than that paid with respect to a company's common stock.

    ELKS.     Equity-Linked  Securities  ("ELKS")   differ  from  ordinary  debt
securities, in that the principal amount  received at maturity is not fixed  but
is  based on the  price of the  issuer's common stock.  ELKS are debt securities
commonly issued in  fully registered form  for a  term of three  years under  an
indenture  trust. At maturity, the holder of  ELKS will be entitled to receive a
principal amount equal to the lesser of  a cap amount, commonly in the range  of
30%  to 55% greater than the current price  of the issuer's common stock, or the
average closing  price  per share  of  the  issuer's common  stock,  subject  to
adjustment  as a  result of  certain dilution  events, for  the 10  trading days
immediately prior to maturity.  Unlike PERCS, ELKS are  commonly not subject  to
redemption  prior to maturity. ELKS usually  bear interest during the three-year
term at a substantially  higher rate than the  dividend yield on the  underlying
common  stock. In exchange for having the cap on the return that might have been
received as capital gains on the  underlying common stock, the Portfolio may  be
compensated  with the higher yield, contingent on how well the underlying common
stock does. Investors,  such as the  Portfolio, that seek  current income,  find
ELKS  attractive because  ELKS provide a  higher dividend income  than that paid
with respect to a company's common stock.

    LYONS.   Liquid  Yield Option  Notes  ("LYONs") differ  from  ordinary  debt
securities,  in that the amount  received prior to maturity  is not fixed but is
based on the  price of the  issuer's common stock.  LYONs are zero-coupon  notes
that  sell at a large discount from face  value. For an investment in LYONs, the
Portfolio will  not  receive  any  interest payments  until  the  notes  mature,
typically in 15 to 20 years, when the notes are redeemed at face, or par, value.
The  yield on LYONs, typically, is lower-than-market rate for debt securities of
the same maturity, due in part to  the fact that the LYONs are convertible  into
common stock of the issuer at any time at the option of the holder of the LYONs.
Commonly,  the LYONs are redeemable  by the issuer at  any time after an initial
period or if the issuer's common stock is trading at a specified price level  or
better,  or,  at  the  option  of the  holder,  upon  certain  fixed  dates. The
redemption price  typically is  the purchase  price of  the LYONs  plus  accrued
original  issue  discount  to  the  date of  redemption,  which  amounts  to the
lower-than-market yield. The Portfolio  will receive only the  lower-than-market
yield  unless the  underlying common stock  increases in value  at a substantial
rate. LYONs are  attractive to investors,  like the Portfolio,  when it  appears
that  they will  increase in value  due to the  rise in value  of the underlying
common stock.

                             INVESTMENT LIMITATIONS

    Except for the Aggressive Equity Portfolio, each Portfolio is a  diversified
investment company and is therefore subject to the following limitations: (a) as
to 75% of its total assets, a Portfolio may not invest more than 5% of its total
assets  in the  securities of  any one  issuer, except  obligations of  the U.S.
Government and its agencies and instrumentalities,  and (b) a Portfolio may  not
own more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of any one issuer.

    The  Aggressive Equity  Portfolio is  a non-diversified  portfolio under the
1940 Act, which means that the Portfolio is  not limited by the 1940 Act in  the
proportion  of its assets  that may be  invested in the  obligations of a single
issuer. Thus, the Portfolio may invest a greater proportion of its assets in the
securities of a  small number  of issuers  and as a  result will  be subject  to
greater  risk with respect  to its Portfolio  securities. However, the Portfolio
intends to  comply with  diversification requirements  imposed by  the  Internal
Revenue  Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), for qualification as a regulated
investment company. See "Investment Limitations" in the Statement of  Additional
Information.

    Each  Portfolio also operates under certain investment restrictions that are
deemed fundamental limitations and may be changed only with the approval of  the
holders  of a majority  of such Portfolio's  outstanding shares. See "Investment
Limitations" in  the  Statement of  Additional  Information. In  addition,  each
Portfolio  operates  under  certain  non-fundamental  investment  limitations as
described below and in the  Statement of Additional Information. Each  Portfolio
may  not: (i)  enter into  repurchase agreements  with more  than seven  days to
maturity if, as a result, more than  15% of the market value of the  Portfolio's
total  assets  would  be  invested  in  such  repurchase  agreements  and  other
investments for which market quotations are  not readily available or which  are
otherwise  illiquid; (ii) borrow  money, except from  banks for extraordinary or
emergency purposes, and  then only  in amounts  up to 10%  of the  value of  the
Portfolio's  total assets, taken at  cost at the time  of borrowing; or purchase
securities while borrowings exceed 5% of  its total assets; or mortgage,  pledge
or  hypothecate  any assets  except  in connection  with  any such  borrowing in
amounts up to  10% of the  value of the  Portfolio's net assets  at the time  of
borrowing;  (iii) invest in  fixed time deposits  with a duration  of over seven
calendar days; or (iv) invest in fixed time deposits with a duration of from two
business days to seven calendar days if  more than 10% of the Portfolio's  total
assets would be invested in these deposits.

                             MANAGEMENT OF THE FUND

    INVESTMENT  ADVISER.  Morgan Stanley Asset Management Inc. is the Investment
Adviser and Administrator of  the Fund and each  of its portfolios. The  Adviser
provides  investment  advice and  portfolio management  services pursuant  to an
Investment Advisory  Agreement and,  subject to  the supervision  of the  Fund's
Board  of  Directors,  makes  each  of  the  Portfolio's  day-to-day  investment
decisions, arranges for  the execution of  portfolio transactions and  generally
manages  each of the Portfolio's investments. The Adviser is entitled to receive
from each Portfolio an annual investment advisory fee, payable quarterly,  equal
to the percentage of average daily net

                                       20
<PAGE>
assets  set  forth in  the table  below. However,  the Adviser  has agreed  to a
reduction in  the  fees  payable to  it  and  to reimburse  the  Portfolios,  if
necessary,  if  such fees  would cause  the total  annual operating  expenses of
either Portfolio to exceed the respective percentage of average daily net assets
set forth below.

Emerging Growth Portfolio         1.00%            1.25%
Aggressive Equity Portfolio       0.80%            1.00%
</TABLE>

    The fees payable by the Emerging Growth and Aggressive Equity Portfolios are
higher than the advisory fees paid by most investment companies, but the Adviser
believes the fees are comparable to  those of investment companies with  similar
investment objectives.

    The  Adviser, with  principal offices  at 1221  Avenue of  the Americas, New
York, New  York  10020,  conducts a  worldwide  portfolio  management  business,
providing  a broad  range of portfolio  management services to  customers in the
United States and abroad. At December  31, 1994, the Adviser, together with  its
affiliated    asset   management   companies,   managed   investments   totaling
approximately $48.7 billion, including approximately $35.6 billion under  active
management  and  $13.1  billion as  Named  Fiduciary or  Fiduciary  Adviser. See
"Management of the Fund" in the Statement of Additional Information.

    AGGRESSIVE EQUITY PORTFOLIO -- KURT FEUERMAN. Information about Mr. Feuerman
is included under Equity Growth Portfolio above.

    ADMINISTRATOR.    The Adviser  also  provides the  Fund  with administrative
services pursuant to  an Administration Agreement.  The services provided  under
the  Administration Agreement are subject to the supervision of the Officers and
the Board of  Directors of  the Fund  and include  day-to-day administration  of
matters  related  to the  corporate existence  of the  Fund, maintenance  of its
records, preparation of reports, supervision of the Fund's arrangements with its
custodian,  and  assistance  in  the  preparation  of  the  Fund's  registration
statements  under  Federal and  State  laws. The  Administration  Agreement also
provides that the Administrator,  through its agents, will  provide to the  Fund
dividend  disbursing and  transfer agent  services. For  its services  under the
Administration Agreement, the Fund  pays the Adviser a  monthly fee which on  an
annual basis equals 0.15% of the average daily net assets of the Portfolio.

    Under the U.S. Trust Administration Agreement between the Adviser and United
States  Trust  Company of  New York  ("U.S.  Trust"), U.S.  Trust has  agreed to
provide certain administrative services  to the Fund.  Pursuant to a  delegation
clause  in the  U.S. Trust  Administration Agreement,  U.S. Trust  delegates its
responsibilities to the Mutual Funds  Service Company ("MFSC"), a subsidiary  of
U.S.  Trust,  that provides  certain administrative  services  to the  Fund. The
Adviser supervises and monitors such  administrative services provided by  MFSC.
The  services provided  under the  Administration Agreement  and the  U.S. Trust
Administration Agreement are  also subject to  the supervision of  the Board  of
Directors  of the  Fund. The  Board of  Directors of  the Fund  has approved the
provision of services described above  pursuant to the Administration  Agreement
and  the U.S. Trust Administration  Agreement as being in  the best interests of
the Fund. MFSC's business  address is 73  Tremont Street, Boston,  Massachusetts
02108-3913. For additional information regarding the Administration Agreement or
the  U.S. Trust  Administration Agreement, see  "Management of the  Fund" in the
Statement of Additional Information.

by  other currencies is given  by the Fund. For purchases  by check, the Fund is
ordinarily credited  with Federal  Funds  within one  business day.  Thus,  your
purchase  of shares by check  is ordinarily credited to  your account at the net
asset value per share of the relevant Portfolio determined on the next  business
day after receipt.

2) BY  FEDERAL  FUNDS WIRE.   Purchases  may be  made by  having your  bank wire
   Federal Funds to the Fund's bank  account. In order to ensure prompt  receipt
   of your Federal Funds Wire, it is important that you follow these steps:

  A.  Telephone  the Fund (toll  free: 1-800-548-7786) and  provide us with your
      name, address,  telephone number,  Social Security  or Tax  Identification
      Number,  the portfolio(s) selected,  the amount being  wired, and by which
      bank. We will then provide you with a Fund account number. (Investors with
      existing accounts should also notify the Fund prior to wiring funds.)

  B.  Instruct your  bank  to wire  the  specified  amount to  the  Fund's  Wire
      Concentration  Bank Account (be sure to have your bank include the name of
      the portfolio(s) selected and the account number assigned to you):

        United States Trust Company of New York
        114 West 47th Street
        New York, NY 10036
        ABA #0210-0131-8
        DDA #20-9310-3
        Attn: Morgan Stanley Institutional Fund, Inc.
        Ref: (portfolio name, your account number, your account name)

     Please call before wiring funds: 1-800-548-7786

  C.  Complete the Account Registration  Form and mail it  to the address  shown
      thereon.

Federal Funds purchase orders will be accepted only on a day on which the Fund
and United States Trust Company of New York (the "Custodian Bank") are open for
business. Your bank may charge a service fee for wiring funds.

                                       23
<PAGE>
3) BY  BANK WIRE.   The  same procedure outlined  under "By  Federal Funds Wire"
   above must be  followed in  purchasing shares  by bank  wire. However,  money
   transferred  by bank wire may or may  not be converted into Federal Funds the
   same day, depending on the time the  money is received and the bank  handling
   the wire. Prior to such conversion, an investor's money will not be invested.
   Your bank may charge a service fee for wiring funds.

ADDITIONAL INVESTMENTS

    You  may  add to  your account  at any  time (minimum  additional investment
$1,000  except  for  automatic  reinvestment  of  dividends  and  capital  gains
distributions for which there are no minimums) by purchasing shares at net asset
value  by mailing a check to the  Fund (payable to "Morgan Stanley Institutional
Fund, Inc. -- [portfolio name]") at the above address or by wiring monies to the
Custodian Bank as outlined  above. It is very  important that your account  name
and  portfolio be specified in the letter  or wire to assure proper crediting to
your account. In order  to insure that your  wire orders are invested  promptly,
you  are  requested to  notify  one of  the  Fund's representatives  (toll free:
1-800-548-7786) prior to the wire date.

OTHER PURCHASE INFORMATION

    The purchase price of the  shares of each Portfolio  is the net asset  value
next determined after the order is received. See "Valuation of Shares." An order
received  prior to the close  of the New York  Stock Exchange ("NYSE"), which is
currently 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, will be executed at the price computed on  the
date  of receipt; an order received after the close of the NYSE will be executed
at the price computed on the next day the NYSE is open.

    In the interest  of economy and  convenience, and because  of the  operating
procedures  of the Fund, certificates representing shares of the Portfolios will
not be issued. All shares  purchased are confirmed to  you and credited to  your
account  on the Fund's books  maintained by the Adviser  or its agents. You will
have  the  same  rights  and  ownership  with  respect  to  such  shares  as  if
certificates had been issued.

    To  ensure that checks are collected by the Fund, withdrawals of investments
made by check  are not presently  permitted until payment  for the purchase  has
been  received,  which may  take up  to eight  business days  after the  date of
purchase. As a condition  of this offering,  if a purchase  is cancelled due  to
nonpayment or because your check does not clear, you will be responsible for any
loss  the Fund or its  agents incur. If you are  already a shareholder, the Fund
may redeem shares from your account(s) to  reimburse the Fund or its agents  for
any  loss. In addition, you  may be prohibited or  restricted from making future
investments in the Fund.

    Investors  may  also  invest  in  the  Fund  by  purchasing  shares  through
registered broker-dealers. Broker-dealers who make purchases for their customers
may charge a fee for such services.

                              REDEMPTION OF SHARES

    You  may  withdraw all  or  any portion  of the  amount  in your  account by
redeeming shares at any time. Please note  that purchases made by check are  not
permitted to be redeemed until payment of the purchase price has been collected,
which  may take up to  eight business days after  purchase. The Fund will redeem
shares of a Portfolio at its next determined net asset value. On days that  both
the  NYSE and the Custodian Bank are open  for business, the net asset value per
share of each of  the Portfolios is  determined at the close  of trading of  the

                                       24
<PAGE>
NYSE  (currently  4:00  p.m. Eastern  Time).  Shares  of the  Portfolios  may be
redeemed by mail or telephone. No charge is made for redemption. Any  redemption
may  be more or less than the purchase  price of your shares depending on, among
other factors,  the  market value  of  the  investment securities  held  by  the
Portfolios.

BY MAIL

    Each  Portfolio will redeem its shares at  the net asset value determined on
the date the request  is received, if  the request is  received in "good  order"
before the regular close of the NYSE. Your request should be addressed to Morgan
Stanley   Institutional  Fund,  Inc.,  P.O.   Box  2798,  Boston,  Massachusetts
02208-2798, except that deliveries by  overnight courier should be addressed  to
Morgan  Stanley Institutional Fund,  Inc., c/o Mutual  Funds Service Company, 73
Tremont Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02108.

    "Good order"  means that  the  request to  redeem  shares must  include  the
following documentation:

       (a) A  letter of instruction or a  stock assignment specifying the number
           of shares or dollar amount to  be redeemed, signed by all  registered
           owners of the shares in the exact names in which they are registered;

       (b) Any   required   signature   guarantees   (see   "Further  Redemption
           Information" below); and

       (c) Other supporting  legal  documents,  if  required,  in  the  case  of
           estates, trusts, guardianships, custodianships, corporations, pension
           and profit sharing plans and other organizations.

    Shareholders who are uncertain of requirements for redemption should consult
with a Morgan Stanley Institutional Fund representative.

BY TELEPHONE

    Provided  you have previously elected the Telephone Redemption Option on the
Account Registration  Form, you  can  request a  redemption  of your  shares  by
calling  the Fund  and requesting  the redemption proceeds  be mailed  to you or
wired to your bank.  Please contact one of  Morgan Stanley Institutional  Fund's
representatives  for further details. In times of drastic market conditions, the
telephone redemption option  may be  difficult to implement.  If you  experience
difficulty in making a telephone redemption, your request may be made by mail or
overnight courier and will be implemented at the net asset value next determined
after  it is received. Redemption requests sent to the Fund through express mail
must be mailed  to the  address of the  Dividend Disbursing  and Transfer  Agent
listed  under "General Information". The Fund and the Fund's transfer agent (the
"Transfer  Agent")  will  employ  reasonable  procedures  to  confirm  that  the
instructions  communicated by  telephone are  genuine. These  procedures include
requiring the investor to provide certain personal identification information at
the time an account is opened and prior to effecting each transaction  requested
by  telephone. In addition, all telephone  transaction requests will be recorded
and  investors  may  be  required  to  provide  additional  telecopied   written
instructions  regarding transaction requests. Neither  the Fund nor the Transfer
Agent will be responsible for any loss, liability, cost or expense for following
instructions received by telephone that either of them reasonably believes to be
genuine.

    To change the commercial  bank or account  designated to receive  redemption
proceeds,  a written  request must  be sent  to the  Fund at  the address above.
Requests to change the bank  or account must be  signed by each shareholder  and
each signature must be guaranteed.

                                       25
<PAGE>
FURTHER REDEMPTION INFORMATION

    Normally  the  Fund will  make payment  for all  shares redeemed  within one
business day of receipt  of the request,  but in no event  will payment be  made
more  than  seven days  after receipt  of  a redemption  request in  good order.
However, payments to investors  redeeming shares which  were purchased by  check
will  not be made until  payment for the purchase  has been collected, which may
take up to eight days after the date of purchase. The Fund may suspend the right
of redemption or postpone the date upon which redemptions are effected at  times
when  the NYSE is closed, or under  any emergency circumstances as determined by
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission").

    If the Board  of Directors determines  that it would  be detrimental to  the
best  interests of  the remaining  shareholders of  a Portfolio  to make payment
wholly or partly in cash, the Fund  may pay the redemption proceeds in whole  or
in part by a distribution in-kind of securities held by the Portfolio in lieu of
cash    in    conformity   with    applicable    rules   of    the   Commission.
Distributions-in-kind will be made  in readily marketable securities.  Investors
may  incur brokerage charges on the sale  of portfolio securities so received in
payment of redemptions.

    Due to the relatively  high cost of maintaining  smaller accounts, the  Fund
reserves the right to redeem shares in any account invested in the Equity Growth
Portfolio having a value of less than $500,000, in the Emerging Growth Portfolio
having  a value  of less  than $100,000 and  in the  Aggressive Equity Portfolio
having a value  of less  than $500,000  (the net asset  value of  which will  be
promptly  paid to  the shareholder). The  Fund, however, will  not redeem shares
based solely upon  market reductions in  net asset  value. If at  any time  your
total  investment  does  not  equal  or exceed  $500,000  in  the  Equity Growth
Portfolio, $100,000  in  the  Emerging  Growth  Portfolio  or  $500,000  in  the
Aggressive  Equity Portfolio you  may be notified  of this fact  and you will be
allowed at least 60 days to make an additional investment before the  redemption
is processed.

    To  protect  your account,  the Fund  and its  agents from  fraud, signature
guarantees are required for  certain redemptions to verify  the identity of  the
person  who has  authorized a redemption  from your account.  Please contact the
Fund for further  information. See "Redemption  of Shares" in  the Statement  of
Additional Information.

                              SHAREHOLDER SERVICES

EXCHANGE PRIVILEGE

    You  may exchange shares  that you own  in each Portfolio  for shares of any
other available  Portfolio of  the  Fund (other  than the  International  Equity
Portfolio).  The privilege to exchange shares  by telephone is automatic. Shares
of the  Portfolios may  be exchanged  by  mail or  telephone. The  privilege  to
exchange  shares by  telephone is  made available  without shareholder election.
Before you make an exchange, you should read the prospectus of the new portfolio
in which you seek  to invest. Because  an exchange transaction  is treated as  a
redemption  followed by  a purchase, an  exchange would be  considered a taxable
event for shareholders subject to tax. The exchange privilege is only  available
with respect to portfolios that are registered for sale in a shareholder's state
of residence.

                                       26
<PAGE>
BY MAIL

    In  order to  exchange shares  by mail, you  should include  in the exchange
request the name and account number of  your current portfolio, the name of  the
portfolio  into which you intend  to exchange shares, and  the signatures of all
registered  account  holders.  Send  the  exchange  request  to  Morgan  Stanley
Institutional Fund, P.O. Box 2798, Boston, Massachusetts 02208-2798.

BY TELEPHONE

    When  exchanging shares by telephone, have ready the name and account number
of the current Portfolio,  the name of  the portfolio into  which you intend  to
exchange  shares,  your Social  Security  number or  Tax  I.D. number,  and your
account address. Requests for  telephone exchanges received  prior to 4:00  p.m.
(Eastern Time) are processed at the close of business that same day based on the
net  asset value of  each of the  Portfolios at the  close of business. Requests
received after 4:00  p.m. (Eastern  Time) are  processed the  next business  day
based  on the net asset  value determined at the close  of business on such day.
For additional  information regarding  responsibility  for the  authenticity  of
telephoned instructions, see "Redemption of Shares -- By Telephone" above.

TRANSFER OF REGISTRATION

    You  may transfer  the registration  of any of  your Fund  shares to another
person by writing  to Morgan Stanley  Institutional Fund, Inc.,  P.O. Box  2798,
Boston,  Massachusetts 02208-2798.  As in the  case of  redemptions, the written
request must be received in good order before any transfer can be made.

                              VALUATION OF SHARES

    The net asset value  per share of  each of the  Portfolios is determined  by
dividing the total market value of the Portfolio's investments and other assets,
less  any  liabilities,  by  the  total  number  of  outstanding  shares  of the
Portfolio. Net asset value per share is  determined as of the close of the  NYSE
on  each day  that the NYSE  is open  for business. Price  information on listed
securities is taken from  the exchange where the  security is primarily  traded.
Securities  listed on a U.S. securities exchange for which market quotations are
available are valued at the last quoted  sale price on the day the valuation  is
made. Securities listed on a foreign exchange are valued at their closing price.
Unlisted  securities and listed securities not  traded on the valuation date for
which market quotations are not readily available are valued at a price that  is
considered  to best  represent fair value  within a  range not in  excess of the
current asked price nor  less than the  current bid price.  The current bid  and
asked  prices are determined  based on the  bid and asked  prices quoted on such
valuation date by reputable brokers.

    Bonds and other fixed income securities are valued according to the broadest
and most representative  market, which will  ordinarily be the  over-the-counter
market.  Net asset value includes interest  on fixed income securities, which is
accrued daily.  In addition,  bonds and  other fixed  income securities  may  be
valued on the basis of prices provided by a pricing service when such prices are
believed  to  reflect  the fair  market  value  of such  securities.  The prices
provided by a pricing service are determined without regard to bid or last  sale
prices,  but take into  account institutional-size trading  in similar groups of
securities and any developments related  to the specific securities.  Securities
not  priced in this manner are valued at the most recently quoted sale price, or
when securities exchange valuations are used, at the latest quoted bid price  on
the day of valuation. If there is no

                                       27
<PAGE>
such  reported  sale,  the latest  quoted  bid  price will  be  used. Securities
purchased with remaining maturities of 60  days or less are valued at  amortized
cost, if it approximates market value. In the event that amortized cost does not
approximate market value, market prices as determined above will be used.

    The value of other assets and securities for which no quotations are readily
available  (including  restricted  and unlisted  foreign  securities)  and those
securities for which it is inappropriate to determine prices in accordance  with
the  above-stated procedures  are determined in  good faith at  fair value using
methods determined by the  Board of Directors. For  purposes of calculating  net
asset value per share, all assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign
currencies will be translated into U.S. dollars at the mean of the bid price and
asked  price of  such currencies against  the U.S.  dollar as quoted  by a major
bank.

                            PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

    The Fund may  from time to  time advertise total  return of the  Portfolios.
THESE  FIGURES ARE BASED ON HISTORICAL EARNINGS AND ARE NOT INTENDED TO INDICATE
FUTURE PERFORMANCE. The "total return" shows  what an investment in a  Portfolio
would  have earned  over a specified  period of time  (such as one,  five or ten
years), assuming  that all  distributions and  dividends by  the Portfolio  were
reinvested  on the reinvestment  dates during the period.  Total return does not
take into account  any federal  or state  income taxes  that may  be payable  on
dividends  and  distributions  or upon  redemption.  The Fund  may  also include
comparative performance information in advertising or marketing the  Portfolio's
shares,  including data  from Lipper  Analytical Services,  Inc., other industry
publications, business periodicals, rating services and market indices.

                   DIVIDENDS AND CAPITAL GAINS DISTRIBUTIONS

    All income dividends and capital  gains distributions will be  automatically
reinvested  in additional shares  at net asset value,  except that, upon written
notice to the Fund or  by checking off the  appropriate box in the  Distribution
Option  Section on  the Account  Registration Form,  a shareholder  may elect to
receive income dividends and capital gains distributions in cash.

    The Emerging Growth Portfolio expects to distribute substantially all of its
net investment income in the form of annual dividends and the Equity Growth  and
the Aggressive Equity Portfolios expect to distribute substantially all of their
net  investment income in the form of quarterly dividends. Net capital gains for
each Portfolio, if any, will also be distributed annually. Confirmations of  the
purchase  of  shares of  each Portfolio  through  the automatic  reinvestment of
income dividends and capital gains  distributions will be provided, pursuant  to
Rule  10b-10(b) under the  Securities Exchange Act  of 1934, as  amended, on the
next quarterly client statement following such purchase of shares. Consequently,
confirmations of such purchases will not  be provided at the time of  completion
of such purchases, as might otherwise be required by Rule 10b-10.

    Undistributed  net  investment income  is included  in each  Portfolio's net
assets for the purpose of calculating  net asset value per share. Therefore,  on
the  "ex-dividend" date,  the net  asset value  per share  excludes the dividend
(i.e., is  reduced by  the per  share amount  of the  dividend). Dividends  paid
shortly after the purchase of shares by an investor, although in effect a return
of capital, are taxable to shareholders subject to income tax.

                                       28
<PAGE>
                                     TAXES

    The following summary of federal income tax consequences is based on current
tax  laws and  regulations, which  may be  changed by  legislative, judicial, or
administrative action.

    No attempt has been made to  present a detailed explanation of the  federal,
state,  or  local  income tax  treatment  of  a Portfolio  or  its shareholders.
Accordingly, shareholders  are urged  to consult  their tax  advisors  regarding
specific questions as to federal, state and local income taxes.

    Each  Portfolio  is treated  as  a separate  entity  for federal  income tax
purposes and  is not  combined with  the  Fund's other  portfolios. It  is  each
Portfolio's intent to continue to qualify for the special tax treatment afforded
regulated  investment  companies  under the  Code,  so that  the  Portfolio will
continue to be relieved of federal income tax on that part of its net investment
income and net capital gain that is distributed to shareholders.

    Each Portfolio distributes  substantially all of  its net investment  income
(including, for this purpose, the excess of net short-term capital gain over net
long-term  capital  loss)  to  shareholders. Dividends  from  a  Portfolio's net
investment income  are  taxable  to shareholders  as  ordinary  income,  whether
received  in cash or  in additional shares.  Such dividends paid  by a Portfolio
will generally qualify  for the 70%  dividends-received deduction for  corporate
shareholders  to  the  extent  of qualifying  dividend  income  received  by the
Portfolio from U.S.  corporations. Each  Portfolio will report  annually to  its
shareholders the amount of dividend income qualifying for such treatment.

    Distributions  of net capital gain (the excess of net long-term capital gain
over net  short-term capital  loss)  are taxable  to shareholders  as  long-term
capital  gain, regardless of how long  shareholders have held their shares. Each
Portfolio sends reports annually to its  shareholders of the federal income  tax
status of all distributions made during the preceding year.

    Each   Portfolio  intends   to  make  sufficient   distributions  or  deemed
distributions of its ordinary income and capital gain net income (the excess  of
short-term  and long-term  capital gains  over short-term  and long-term capital
losses), prior to the end of each  calendar year to avoid liability for  federal
excise tax.

    Dividends  and  other  distributions  declared by  a  Portfolio  in October,
November or December of any year and payable to shareholders of record on a date
in such month will be deemed to have been paid by the Portfolio and received  by
the  shareholders on December 31  of that year if  the distributions are paid by
the Portfolio at any time during the following January.

    The sale, redemption, or  exchange of shares may  result in taxable gain  or
loss  to the redeeming shareholder, depending upon whether the fair market value
of the redemption proceeds  exceeds or is less  than the shareholder's  adjusted
basis  in the redeemed shares.  Any such taxable gain  or loss generally will be
treated as long-term capital gain or loss if the shares have been held for  more
than one year and otherwise generally will be treated as short-term capital gain
or  loss. If capital  gain distributions have  been made with  respect to shares
that are sold at a loss after being  held for six months or less, however,  then
the  loss is treated  as a long-term capital  loss to the  extent of the capital
gain distributions.

    Investment income  received  by  a Portfolio  from  sources  within  foreign
countries  may be subject to foreign income taxes withheld at the source. To the
extent that  a  Portfolio  is  liable for  foreign  income  taxes  so  withheld,

                                       29
<PAGE>
the  Portfolio intends to operate so as to  meet the requirements of the Code to
pass through to the shareholders credit for foreign income taxes paid.  Although
each Portfolio intends to meet Code requirements to pass through credit for such
taxes, there can be no assurance that each Portfolio will be able to do so.

    Shareholders  are urged  to consult with  their tax  advisors concerning the
application of state and local income taxes to investments in a Portfolio, which
may differ from the federal income tax consequences described above.

    THE  TAX  DISCUSSION  SET  FORTH  ABOVE  IS  INCLUDED  HEREIN  FOR   GENERAL
INFORMATION  ONLY. PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS  SHOULD CONSULT THEIR  OWN TAX ADVISERS
WITH RESPECT TO THE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF AN INVESTMENT IN A PORTFOLIO.

                             PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

    The Investment  Advisory  Agreement authorizes  the  Adviser to  select  the
brokers  or  dealers that  will execute  the purchases  and sales  of investment
securities for the Portfolios and directs the Adviser to use its best efforts to
obtain the best available price and most favorable execution with respect to all
transactions for the  Portfolios. The  Fund has  authorized the  Adviser to  pay
higher commissions in recognition of brokerage services which, in the opinion of
the Adviser, are necessary for the achievement of better execution, provided the
Adviser believes this to be in the best interest of the Fund.

    Since shares of the Portfolios are not marketed through intermediary brokers
or  dealers, it is  not the Fund's  practice to allocate  brokerage or principal
business on the basis of sales of  shares which may be made through such  firms.
However,  the Adviser may  place portfolio orders  with qualified broker-dealers
who recommend the  Fund's portfolios or  who act  as agents in  the purchase  of
shares of the Fund's portfolios for their clients.

    In  purchasing and selling  securities for the Portfolios,  it is the Fund's
policy to seek to obtain quality execution at the most favorable prices  through
responsible   broker-dealers.  In   selecting  broker-dealers   to  execute  the
securities transactions for the Portfolios, consideration will be given to  such
factors  as the price of the security, the  rate of the commission, the size and
difficulty of  the  order,  the  reliability,  integrity,  financial  condition,
general  execution and operational capabilities of competing broker-dealers, and
the brokerage  and  research services  which  they  provide to  the  Fund.  Some
securities  considered for investment by the  Portfolios may also be appropriate
for other clients served by the Adviser.  If the purchase or sale of  securities
consistent  with the investment  policies of the  Portfolios and one  or more of
these other clients served  by the Adviser  is considered at  or about the  same
time, transactions in such securities will be allocated among the Portfolios and
such  other  clients in  a manner  deemed  fair and  reasonable by  the Adviser.
Although there is  no specified  formula for allocating  such transactions,  the
various  allocation  methods  used  by  the Adviser,  and  the  results  of such
allocations, are subject to periodic review by the Fund's Board of Directors.

    Subject to the overriding objective of obtaining the best possible execution
of orders,  the Adviser  may allocate  a portion  of the  Portfolio's  brokerage
transactions  to Morgan Stanley or broker affiliates of Morgan Stanley. In order
for Morgan Stanley or  its affiliates to effect  any portfolio transactions  for
the Fund, the commissions, fees or other remuneration received by Morgan Stanley
or such affiliates must be reasonable and fair compared to the commissions, fees
or   other   remuneration   paid   to   other   brokers   in   connection   with

                                       30
<PAGE>
comparable transactions involving similar securities being purchased or sold  on
a securities exchange during a comparable period of time. Furthermore, the Board
of  Directors of the Fund,  including a majority of  those Directors who are not
"interested persons," as defined in the 1940 Act, have adopted procedures  which
are  reasonably  designed  to  provide  that  any  commissions,  fees  or  other
remuneration paid to Morgan Stanley or  such affiliates are consistent with  the
foregoing standard.

    Portfolio  securities will not be  purchased from or through,  or sold to or
through, the Adviser or Morgan Stanley  or any "affiliated persons," as  defined
in  the 1940 Act of Morgan Stanley  when such entities are acting as principals,
except to the extent permitted by law.

    Although none of the Portfolios will invest for short-term trading purposes,
investment securities may be sold from time to time without regard to the length
of time  they  have  been  held.  For the  Equity  Growth  and  Emerging  Growth
Portfolios,  it  is anticipated  that,  under normal  circumstances,  the annual
portfolio turnover  rate will  not exceed  100%. However,  the annual  portfolio
turnover  rate of the Equity Growth Portfolio for the fiscal year ended December
31, 1993 was  172%. For the  Aggressive Equity Portfolio,  the annual  portfolio
turnover  rate  is expected  to exceed  100%.  High portfolio  turnover involves
correspondingly greater transaction costs  which will be  borne directly by  the
respective  Portfolio. In addition,  high portfolio turnover  may result in more
capital gains  which would  be taxable  to the  shareholders of  the  respective

                              GENERAL INFORMATION

DESCRIPTION OF COMMON STOCK

    The Fund  was organized  as a  Maryland corporation  on June  16, 1988.  The
Articles  of Incorporation permit the Fund  to issue up to 15,000,000,000 shares
of common stock, with $.001 par value per share. Pursuant to the Fund's Articles
of Incorporation, the Board of Directors  may increase the number of shares  the
Fund  is authorized  to issue  without the approval  of the  shareholders of the
Fund. The Board of Directors has the  power to designate one or more classes  of
shares  of common stock and to classify  and reclassify any unissued shares with
respect to such classes.

    The  shares  of   the  Portfolios,   when  issued,  will   be  fully   paid,
non-assessable,  fully transferable and redeemable at  the option of the holder.
The shares have no preference as to conversion, exchange, dividends,  retirement
or  other features and have no pre-emptive  rights. The shares of each portfolio
have non-cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50%
of the  shares voting  for  the election  of Directors  can  elect 100%  of  the
Directors  if they choose to do so.  Persons or organizations owning 25% or more
of the  outstanding shares  of a  Portfolio  may be  presumed to  "control"  (as
defined  in the 1940  Act) such Portfolio.  Under Maryland law,  the Fund is not
required to hold an annual meeting of its shareholders unless required to do  so
under the 1940 Act.

REPORTS TO SHAREHOLDERS

    The  Fund will send to its  shareholders annual and semi-annual reports; the
financial statements  appearing in  annual reports  are audited  by  independent
accountants.  Monthly unaudited portfolio  data is also  available from the Fund
upon request.

    In addition, Morgan Stanley Asset Management Inc., or its agent, as Transfer
Agent, will send to each shareholder having an account directly with the Fund  a
monthly  statement  showing transactions  in the  account,  the total  number of
shares owned, and any dividends or distributions paid.

CUSTODIAN

    Domestic securities and cash are held by United States Trust Company of  New
York,  New York, as the Fund's domestic custodian. Morgan Stanley Trust Company,
Brooklyn, New York, acts as the Fund's custodian for foreign assets held outside
the United States and  employs subcustodians who were  approved by the Board  of
Directors  of  the Fund  in accordance  with regulations  of the  Securities and
Exchange Commission for  the purpose  of providing custodial  services for  such
assets.  For more  information on  the custodians,  see "General  Information --
Custody Arrangements" in the Statement of Additional Information.

                       INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

     The following policies supplement the investment objectives and policies
set forth in the Fund's Prospectuses:

SECURITIES LENDING

     Each Portfolio may lend its investment securities to qualified
institutional investors who need to borrow securities in order to complete
certain transactions, such as covering short sales, avoiding failures to deliver
securities or completing arbitrage operations.  By lending its investment
securities, a Portfolio attempts to increase its net investment income through
the receipt of interest on the loan.  Any gain or loss in the market price of
the securities loaned that might occur during the term of the loan would be for
the account of the Portfolio.  Each Portfolio may lend its investment securities
to qualified brokers, dealers, domestic and foreign banks or other financial
institutions, so long as the terms, structure and the aggregate amount of such
loans are not inconsistent with the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended
(the "1940 Act"), or the Rules and Regulations or interpretations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") thereunder, which
currently require that (a) the borrower pledge and maintain with the Portfolio
collateral consisting of cash, an irrevocable letter of credit issued by a
domestic U.S. bank, or securities issued or guaranteed by the United States
Government having a value at all times not less than 100% of the value of the
securities loaned, (b) the borrower add to such collateral whenever the price of
the securities loaned rises (i.e., the borrower "marks to the market" on a daily
basis), (c) the loan be made subject to termination by the Portfolio at any
time, and (d) the Portfolio receive reasonable interest on the loan (which may
include the Portfolio investing any cash collateral in interest bearing
short-term investments), any distributions on the loaned securities and any
increase in their market value.  There may be risks of delay in recovery of the
securities or even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the
securities fail financially.  However, loans will only be made to borrowers
deemed by the Advisor to be of good standing and when, in the judgment of the
Advisor, the consideration which can be earned currently from such securities
loans justifies the attendant risk. All relevant facts and circumstances,
including the creditworthiness of the broker, dealer or institution, will be
considered in making decisions with respect to the lending of securities,
subject to review by the Board of Directors of the Fund.

     At the present time, the staff of the Commission does not object if an
investment company pays reasonable negotiated fees in connection with loaned
securities, so long as such fees are set forth in a written contract and
approved by the investment company's Board of Directors.  In addition, voting
rights may pass with the loaned securities, but if a material event will occur
affecting an investment on loan, the loan must be called and the securities
voted.

FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE CONTRACTS

     The U.S. dollar value of the assets of the International Equity, Global
Equity, European Equity, Japanese Equity, Asian Equity, Latin American,
Global Fixed Income, Real Yield, Active Country Allocation, International
Small Cap, China Growth, Emerging Markets, Emerging Markets Debt and Gold
Portfolios and, to the extent they invest in securities denominated in
foreign currencies, those of the Emerging Growth, Aggressive Equity, Value
Equity, Balanced, Small Cap Value Equity, Fixed Income and High Yield
Portfolios may be affected favorably or unfavorably by changes in foreign
currency exchange rates and exchange control regulations, and the Portfolios
may incur costs in connection with conversions between various currencies.
The Portfolios will conduct their foreign currency exchange transactions
either on a spot (i.e., cash) basis at the spot rate prevailing in the
foreign currency exchange market, or through entering into forward contracts
to purchase or sell foreign currencies.  A forward currency exchange contract
involves an obligation to purchase or sell a specific currency at a future
date, which may be any fixed number of days from the date of the contract
agreed upon by the parties, at a price set at the time of the contract. These
contracts are traded in the interbank market conducted directly between
currency traders (usually large commercial banks) and their customers.  A
forward contract generally has no deposit requirement, and no commissions are
charged at any stage for such trades.  The Gold Portfolio may also enter into
precious metals forward contracts.  See "Precious Metals Forward and Futures
Contracts and Options" below.

     The Portfolios may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts
in several circumstances.  When a Portfolio enters into a contract for the
purchase or sale of a security denominated in a foreign currency, or when a
Portfolio anticipates the receipt in a foreign currency of dividends or interest
payments on a security which it holds, the Portfolio may desire to "lock-in" the
U.S. dollar price of the security or the U.S. dollar equivalent of such dividend
or interest payment, as the case may be.  By entering into a forward contract
for a fixed amount of dollars, for the purchase or sale of the amount of foreign
currency involved in the underlying transactions, the Portfolio will be able to
protect itself against a possible loss resulting from an adverse change in the
relationship between the U.S. dollar and the subject foreign currency during the
period between the date on which the security is purchased or sold, or on which
the dividend or interest payment is declared, and the date on which such
payments are made or received.


                                        2
<PAGE>

     Additionally, when any of these Portfolios anticipates that the currency of
a particular foreign country may suffer a substantial decline against the U.S.
dollar, it may enter into a forward contract for a fixed amount of dollars, to
sell the amount of foreign currency approximating the value of some or all of
such Portfolio's securities denominated in such foreign currency.  The precise
matching of the forward contract amounts and the value of the securities
involved will not generally be possible since the future value of securities in
foreign currencies will change as a consequence of market movements in the value
of these securities between the date on which the forward contract is entered
into and the date it matures.  The projection of short-term currency market
movement is extremely difficult, and the successful execution of a short-term
hedging strategy is highly uncertain. None of the Portfolios intend to enter
into such forward contracts to protect the value of portfolio securities on a
continuous basis.

     Under normal circumstances, consideration of the prospect for currency
parities will be incorporated into the long-term investment decisions made with
regard to overall diversification strategies.  However, the management of the
Fund believes that it is important to have the flexibility to enter into such
forward contracts when it determines that the best interests of the performance
of each Portfolio will thereby be served.  Except under circumstances where a
segregated account is not required under the 1940 Act or the rules adopted
thereunder, the Fund's Custodian will place cash, U.S. government securities, or
high-grade debt securities into a segregated account of a Portfolio in an amount
equal to the value of such Portfolio's total assets committed to the
consummation of forward currency exchange contracts.  If the value of the
securities placed in the segregated account declines, additional cash or
securities will be placed in the account on a daily basis so that the value of
the account will be equal to the amount of such Portfolio's commitments with
respect to such contracts.

     The Portfolios generally will not enter into a forward contract with a term
of greater than one year.  At the maturity of a forward contract, a Portfolio
may either sell the portfolio security and make delivery of the foreign
currency, or it may retain the security and terminate its contractual obligation
to deliver the foreign currency by purchasing an "offsetting" contract with the
same currency trader obligating it to purchase, on the same maturity date, the
same amount of the foreign currency.

     It is impossible to forecast with absolute precision the market value of a
particular portfolio security at the expiration of the contract.  Accordingly,
it may be necessary for a Portfolio to purchase additional foreign currency on
the spot market (and bear the expense of such purchase) if the market value of
the security is less than the amount of foreign currency that such Portfolio is
obligated to deliver and if a decision is made to sell the security and make
delivery of the foreign currency.

     If a Portfolio retains the portfolio security and engages in an offsetting
transaction, such Portfolio will incur a gain or a loss (as described below) to
the extent that there has been movement in forward contract prices.  Should
forward prices decline during the period between a Portfolio entering into a
forward contract for the sale of a foreign currency and the date it enters into
an offsetting contract for the purchase of the foreign currency, such Portfolio
will realize a gain to the extent that the price of the currency it has agreed
to sell exceeds the price of the currency it has agreed to purchase.  Should
forward prices increase, such Portfolio would suffer a loss to the extent that
the price of the currency it has agreed to purchase exceeds the price of the
currency it has agreed to sell.

     The Portfolios are not required to enter into such transactions with regard
to their foreign currency-denominated securities.  It also should be realized
that this method of protecting the value of portfolio securities against a
decline in the value of a currency does not eliminate fluctuations in the
underlying prices of the securities.  It simply establishes a rate of exchange
which one can achieve at some future point in time.  Additionally, although such
contracts tend to minimize the risk of loss due to a decline in the value of the
hedged currency, at the same time, they tend to limit any potential gain which
might result should the value of such currency increase.

CURRENCY SWAPS

     The China Growth Portfolio may enter into currency swaps for hedging
purposes and non-hedging purposes.  Inasmuch as swaps are entered into for good
faith hedging purposes and are offset by a segregated account as described
below, the Portfolio believes that swaps do not constitute senior securities as
defined in the 1940 Act and, accordingly, will not treat them as being subject
to the Portfolio's borrowing restrictions.  An amount of cash or liquid high
grade debt securities (i.e., securities rated in one of the top three ratings
categories by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's") or Standard & Poor's
Corporation ("S&P"), or, if unrated, deemed by the Adviser to be of comparable
credit quality) having an aggregate net asset value at least equal to the gross
payments which the Portfolio is obligated to make under the currency swap will
be maintained in a segregated account by the Fund's Custodian.  The Portfolio
will not enter into any currency swap unless the credit quality of the unsecured
senior debt or the claims-paying ability of the other party thereto is
considered to be investment grade by the Adviser.  If there is a default by the
other party to such a transaction, the Portfolio will have contractual remedies
pursuant to the agreements related to the transaction.  The swap market has
grown substantially in recent years with a large number of banks and investment
banking firms acting both as principals and as agents


                                        3
<PAGE>

utilizing standardized swap documentation.  As a result, the swap market has
become relatively liquid in comparison with the markets for other similar
instruments which are traded in the interbank market.

FUTURES CONTRACTS

     The Equity Growth, Aggressive Equity, Value Equity, Balanced, Small Cap
Value Equity, Active Country Allocation, Gold, Latin American, U.S. Real Estate,
Emerging Markets, Emerging Markets Debt and China Growth Portfolios may
enter into futures contracts and options on futures contracts for the purpose of
remaining fully invested and reducing transactions costs.  The Fixed Income,
Municipal Bond, Mortgage-Backed Securities, High Yield, Money Market, Municipal
Money Market, Active County Allocation, Equity Growth, Aggressive Equity Gold,
Latin American, U.S. Real Estate  and China Growth Portfolios may also enter
into futures contracts for hedging purposes.  No Portfolio will enter into
futures contracts or options thereon for speculative purposes.  The Gold
Portfolio may also enter into futures contracts and options thereon on precious
metals.  See "Precious Metals Forward and Futures Contracts and Options" below.
The China Growth and Latin American Portfolios may also enter into futures and
options thereon on stock and other securities indices and currencies.  Futures
contracts provide for the future sale by one party and purchase by another party
of a specified amount of a specific security at a specified future time and at a
specified price.  Futures contracts, which are standardized as to maturity date
and underlying financial instrument, are traded on national futures exchanges.
Futures exchanges and trading are regulated under the Commodity Exchange Act by
the Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC"), a U.S. government agency.

     Although futures contracts by their terms call for actual delivery or
acceptance of the underlying securities or currencies, in most cases the
contracts are closed out before the settlement date without the making or taking
of delivery.  Closing out an open futures position is done by taking an opposite
position ("buying" a contract which has previously been "sold" or "selling" a
contract previously "purchased") in an identical contract to terminate the
position.  Brokerage commissions are incurred when a futures contract is bought
or sold.

     Futures contracts on securities indices or other indices do not require the
physical delivery of securities, but merely provide for profits and losses
resulting from changes in the market value of a contract to be credited or
debited at the close of each trading day to the respective accounts of the
parties to the contract.  On the contract's expiration date a final cash
settlement occurs and the futures position is simply closed out.  Changes in the
market value of a particular futures contract reflect changes in the level of
the index on which the futures contract is based.

     Futures traders are required to make a good faith margin deposit in cash or
government securities with a broker or custodian to initiate and maintain open
positions in futures contracts.  A margin deposit is intended to assure
completion of the contract (delivery or acceptance of the underlying security)
if it is not terminated prior to the specified delivery date.  Minimal initial
margin requirements are established by the futures exchange and may be changed.
Brokers may establish deposit requirements which are higher than the exchange
minimums.  Futures contracts are customarily purchased and sold for prices that
may range upward from less than 5% of the value of the contract being traded.

     After a futures contract position is opened, the value of the contract is
marked to market daily.  If the futures contract price changes to the extent
that the margin on deposit does not satisfy margin requirements, payment of an
additional "variation" margin will be required.  Conversely, a change in the
contract value may reduce the required margin, resulting in a repayment of
excess margin to the contract holder.  Variation margin payments are made to and
from the futures broker for as long as the contract remains open.  The
Portfolios expect to earn interest income on their margin deposits.  With
respect to each long position in a futures contract or option thereon, the
underlying commodity value of such contract will always be covered by cash and
cash equivalents set aside plus accrued profits held at the futures commission
merchant.

     The Portfolios may purchase and write call and put options on futures
contracts which are traded on a U.S. Exchange (and in the case of the China
Growth and Latin American Portfolios, on any recognized securities or futures
exchange to the extent permitted by the CFTC) and enter into closing
transactions with respect to such options to terminate an existing position.  An
option on a futures contract gives the purchaser the right (in return for the
premium paid) to assume a position in a futures contract (a long position if the
option is a call and a short position if the option is a put) at a specified
exercise price at any time during the term of the option.  Upon exercise of the
option, the delivery of the accumulated balance in the writer's futures margin
account, which represents the amount by which the market price of the futures
contract at the time of exercise exceeds, in the case of a call, or is less
than, in the case of a put, the exercise price of the option on the futures
contract.

<PAGE>

     The Portfolios will purchase and write options on futures contracts for
identical purposes to those set forth above for the purchase of a futures
contract (purchase of a call option or sale of a put option) and the sale of a
futures contract (purchase of a put option or sale of a call option), or to
close out a long or short position in futures contracts.

     Traders in futures contracts may be broadly classified as either "hedgers"
or "speculators."  Hedgers use the futures markets primarily to offset
unfavorable changes in the value of securities otherwise held for investment
purposes or expected to be acquired by them.  Speculators are less inclined to
own the underlying securities with futures contracts which they trade, and use
futures contracts with the expectation of realizing profits from market
fluctuations.  The Portfolios intend to use futures contracts only for hedging
purposes.

     Regulations of the CFTC applicable to the Portfolios require that all
futures transactions constitute bona fide hedging transactions except that a
Portfolio may engage in futures transactions that do not constitute bona fide
hedging to the extent that not more than 5% of the liquidation value of a
Portfolio's total assets are required as margin deposits or premiums for such
transactions.  The Portfolios will only sell futures contracts to protect
securities owned against declines in price or purchase contracts to protect
against an increase in the price of securities intended for purchase.  As
evidence of this hedging interest, the Portfolios expect that approximately 75%
of their futures contracts will be "completed"; that is, equivalent amounts of
related securities will have been purchased or are being purchased by the
Portfolios upon sale of open futures contracts.

     Although techniques other than the sale and purchase of futures contracts
could be used to control the Portfolios' exposure to market fluctuations, the
use of futures contracts may be a more effective means of hedging this exposure.
While the Portfolios will incur commission expenses in both opening and closing
out futures positions, these costs are lower than transaction costs incurred in
the purchase and sale of the underlying securities.

RESTRICTIONS ON THE USE OF FUTURES CONTRACTS.  None of the Portfolios will enter
into futures contract transactions to the extent that, immediately thereafter,
the sum of its initial margin deposits on open contracts exceeds 5% of the
market value of its total assets.  In addition, none of the Portfolios will
enter into futures contracts to the extent that its outstanding obligations to
purchase securities under futures contracts and options on futures contracts
(and in the case of the Active County Allocation, Equity Growth, Gold, Latin
American and China Growth Portfolios, under options, futures contracts and
options on futures contracts) would exceed 20% of its respective total assets.

RISK FACTORS IN FUTURES TRANSACTIONS.  Positions in futures contracts may be
closed out only on an exchange which provides a secondary market for such
futures.  However, there can be no assurance that a liquid secondary market will
exist for any particular futures contracts at any specific time.  Thus, it may
not be possible to close a futures position.  In the event of adverse price
movements, the Portfolios would continue to be required to make daily cash
payments to maintain their required margin.  In such situations, if a Portfolio
has insufficient cash, it may have to sell portfolio securities to meet its
daily margin requirement at a time when it may be disadvantageous to do so.  In
addition, a Portfolio may be required to make delivery of the instruments
underlying futures contracts it holds.  The inability to close options and
futures positions also could have an adverse impact on the Portfolio's ability
to effectively hedge.

     The Portfolios will minimize the risk that they will be unable to close out
a futures contract by only entering into futures which are traded on national
futures exchanges and for which there appears to be a liquid secondary market.

     The risk of loss in trading futures contracts in some strategies can be
substantial, due both to the low margin deposits required, and the extremely
high degree of leverage involved in futures pricing.  As a result, a relatively
small price movement in a futures contract may result in immediate and
substantial loss (as well as gain) to the investor.  For example, if, at the
time of purchase, 10% of the value of the futures contract is deposited as
margin, a subsequent 10% decrease in the value of the futures contract would
result in a total loss of the margin deposit, before any deduction for the
transaction costs, if the account were then closed out.  A 15% decrease would
result in a loss equal to 150% of the original margin deposit if the contract
were closed out.  Thus, a purchase or sale of a futures contract may result in
losses in excess of the amount invested in the contract. However, because the
Portfolios engage in futures strategies only for hedging purposes, the Adviser
does not believe that the Portfolios are subject to the risks of loss frequently
associated with futures transactions.  A Portfolio would presumably have
sustained comparable losses if, instead of the futures contract, it had invested
in the underlying security or currency and sold it after the decline.

     Utilization of futures transactions by the Portfolios does involve the risk
of imperfect or no correlation where the securities underlying futures contracts
have different maturities than the portfolio securities or currencies being
hedged.  It is also possible that


                                        5
<PAGE>

a Portfolio could both lose money on futures contracts and also experience a
decline in value of its portfolio securities.  There is also the risk of loss by
a Portfolio of margin deposits in the event of bankruptcy of a broker with whom
the Portfolio has an open position in a futures contract or related option.

     Most futures exchanges limit the amount of fluctuation permitted in futures
contract prices during a single trading day.  The daily limit establishes the
maximum amount that the price of a futures contract may vary either up or down
from the previous day's settlement price at the end of a trading session.  Once
the daily limit has been reached in a particular type of contract, no trades may
be made on that day at a price beyond that limit.  The daily limit governs only
price movement during a particular trading day and therefore does not limit
potential losses, because the limit may prevent the liquidation of unfavorable
positions.  Futures contract prices have occasionally moved to the daily limit
for several consecutive trading days with little or no trading, thereby
preventing prompt liquidation of futures positions and subjecting some futures
traders to substantial losses.

PRECIOUS METALS FORWARD AND FUTURES CONTRACTS AND OPTIONS ON FUTURES CONTRACTS

     The Gold Portfolio may enter into futures contacts on precious ("precious
metals futures") metals as a hedge against changes in the prices of precious
metals held or intended to be acquired by the Portfolio, but not for speculation
or for achieving leverage.  The Portfolio's hedging activities may include
purchases of futures contracts as an offset against the effect of anticipated
increases in the price of a precious metal which the Portfolio intends to
acquire ("anticipatory hedge") or sales of futures contracts as an offset
against the effect of anticipated declines in the price of precious metal which
the Portfolio owns ("hedge against an existing position").

     The Portfolio will enter into precious metals forward contracts which are
similar to precious metals futures contracts, in that they provide for the
purchase or sale of precious metals at an agreed price with delivery to take
place at an agreed future time.  However, unlike futures contracts, forward
contracts are negotiated contracts which are primarily used in the dealer
market.  Unlike the futures contract market, which is regulated by the CFTC and
by the regulations of the commodity exchanges, the forward contract market is
unregulated.  The Portfolio will use forward contracts for the same hedging
purposes as those applicable to futures contracts, as described above.  When the
Portfolio enters into a forward contract it will establish with the custodian a
segregated account consisting of cash, cash equivalents or bullion equal to the
market value of the forward contract purchased.

     Precious metals futures and forward contract prices can be volatile and are
influenced principally by changes in spot market prices, which in turn are
affected by a variety of political and economic factors.  In addition,
expectations of changing market conditions may at times influence the prices of
such futures and forward contracts, and changes in the cost of holding physical
precious metals, including storage, insurance and interest expense, will also
affect the relationship between spot and futures or forward prices.  While the
correlation between changes in prices of futures and forward contracts and
prices of the precious metals being hedged by such contracts has historically
been very strong, the correlation may at times be imperfect and even a well
conceived hedge may be unsuccessful to some degree because of market behavior or
unexpected precious metals price trends.  To the extent that interest rates move
in a direction opposite to that anticipated, the Portfolio may realize a loss on
a futures transaction not offset by an increase in the value of portfolio
securities.  Moreover there is a possibility of a lack of a liquid secondary
market for closing out a futures position or futures option.  The success of any
hedging technique depends upon the Adviser's and Sub-Adviser's accuracy in
predicting the direction of a market.  If these predictions are incorrect, the
Portfolio may realize a loss.

     The Portfolio may also purchase (buy) and write (sell) covered call or put
options on precious metals futures contracts.  Such options would be purchased
solely for hedging purposes similar to those applicable to the purchase and sale
of futures contracts.  Call options might be purchased to hedge against an
increase in the price of precious metals the Portfolio intends to acquire, and
put options may be purchased to hedge against a decline in the price of precious
metals owned by the Portfolio.  As is the case with futures contracts, options
on precious metals futures may facilitate the Portfolio's acquisition of
precious metals or permit the Portfolio to defer disposition of precious metals
for tax or other purposes.  The Portfolio may not purchase options on precious
metals and precious metals futures contracts if the premiums paid for all such
options, together with margin deposits on precious metals future contracts,
would exceed 5% of the Portfolio's total assets at the time of option is
purchased.

     One of the risks which may arise in employing futures contracts to protect
against the price volatility of the Portfolio's assets is that the price of
precious metals subject of futures contracts (and thereby the futures contracts
prices) may correlate imperfectly with the prices of such assets.  A correlation
may also be distorted by the fact that the futures market is dominated by short-
term traders seeking to profit from the difference between a contract or
security price objective and their cost of borrowed funds.  Such distortions are
generally minor and would diminish as the contract approached maturity.

OPTIONS TRANSACTIONS

GENERAL INFORMATION.  As stated in the applicable Prospectus, the Active County
Allocation, Emerging Markets, Emerging Markets Debt, Equity Growth, Aggressive
Equity, Gold, Small Cap Value Equity, Value Equity, Balanced, Latin American,
U.S. Real Estate and China Growth Portfolios may purchase and sell options on
equity securities and the China Growth and Latin American Portfolios also may
purchase and sell options on securities indices.  Additional information with
respect to option transactions is set forth below.  Call and put options on
equity securities are listed on various U.S. and foreign securities exchanges
("listed options") and are written in over-the-counter transaction ("OTC
Options").

     Listed options are issued or guaranteed by the exchange on which they trade
or by a clearing corporation, such as Options Clearing Corporation ("OCC") in
the United States.  Ownership of a listed call option gives the fund the right
to buy from the clearing corporation or exchange, the underlying security
covered by the option at the state exercise price (the price per unit of the
underlying security or currency) by filing an exercise notice prior to the
expiration date of the option.  The writer (seller) of the option would then
have the obligation to sell to the clearing corporation or exchange, the
underlying security or currency at that exercise price prior to the expiration
date of the option, regardless of its the current market price.  Ownership of
listed put option would give the Portfolio the right to sell the underlying
security or currency to the clearing corporation or exchange at the state
exercise price.  Upon notice of exercise of the put option, the writer of the
option would have the obligation to purchase the underlying security from the
clearing corporation or exchange at the exercise price.

     OTC options are purchased from or sold (written) to dealers of financial
institutions which have entered into direct agreements with the Portfolio.  With
OTC options, such variables as expiration date exercise price and premium will
be agreed upon between the Portfolio and the transactions dealer, without the
intermediate of a third party such as a clearing corporation or exchange.  If
the transacting dealer fails to make or take delivery of the securities
underlying an option it has written, in accordance with the terms of that
option, the Portfolio would lose the premium paid for the option as well as any
anticipated benefit of the transaction.

COVERED CALL WRITING.  Each of the Portfolios may write (i.e., sell) covered
call options on portfolio securities.  By doing so, the Portfolio would become
obligated during the terms of the option to deliver the securities underlying
the option should the option holder choose to exercise the option before the
option's termination date.  In return for the call it has written, the Portfolio
will receive from the purchaser (or option holder) a premium which is the price
of the option, less a commission charged by a broker.  The Portfolio will keep
the premium regardless of whether the option is exercised.  A call option is
"covered" if the Portfolio owns the security underlying the option it has
written or has an absolute or immediate right to acquire the security by holding
a call option on such security, or maintains a sufficient amount of cash, cash
equivalents or liquid securities to purchase the underlying security.  When the
Portfolio writes covered call options, it augments its income by the premiums
receive and is thereby hedged to the extent of that amount against a decline in
the price of the underlying securities and the premiums received will offset a
portion of the potential loss incurred by the Portfolio if the securities
underlying the options are ultimately sold by the Portfolio at a loss.  However,
during the option period, the Portfolio has, in return for the premium on the
option, given up the opportunity for capital appreciation above the exercise
price should the market price of the underlying security increase, but has
retained the risk of loss should the price of the underlying security decline.
The size of premiums will fluctuate with varying market conditions.

COVERED PUT WRITING.  Each of the Portfolios may write covered put options on
portfolio securities.  By doing so, the Portfolio incurs an obligation to buy
the security underlying the option from the purchaser of the put at the option's
exercise price at any time during the option period, at the purchaser's election
(certain listed and OTC options written by the Portfolio will be exercisable by
the purchaser only on a specific date).  Generally, a put option is "covered" if
the Portfolio maintains cash, U.S. Government securities or other high grade
debt obligations equal to the exercise price of the option or if the Portfolio
holds a put option on the same underlying security with a similar or higher
exercise price.

     Each of the Portfolios will write put options to receive the premiums paid
by purchasers; when the Adviser (and also the Sub-Adviser with respect to the
Gold Portfolio) wishes to purchase the security underlying the option at a price
lower than its current market price, in which case it will write the covered put
at an exercise price reflecting the lower purchase price sought; and to close
out long put option position.

PURCHASE OF PUT AND CALL OPTIONS.  The Portfolios may purchase listed or OTC put
or call options on its portfolio securities in amounts exceeding no more than 5%
of its total assets.  When the Portfolio purchases a call option it acquires the
right to sell a designated security at a designated price (the "exercise
price"), and when the Portfolio purchases a put option it acquires the right to
purchase


                                        7
<PAGE>

a designated security at the exercise price, in each case on or before a
specified date (the "termination date"), usually not more than nine months from
the date the option is issued.

     The Portfolio may purchase call options to close out a covered call
position or to protect against an increase in the price of a security it
anticipates purchasing.  The Portfolio may purchase put options on securities
which it holds in its portfolio only to protect itself against a decline in the
value of the security.  If the value of the underlying security were to fall
below the exercise price of the put purchased in an amount greater than the
premium paid for the option, the Portfolio would incur no additional loss.  The
Portfolio may also purchase put options to close out written put positions in a
manner similar to call option closing purchase transactions.

     The amount the Portfolio pays to purchase an option is called a "premium",
and the risk assumed by the Portfolio when it purchases an option is the loss of
this premium.  Because the price of an option tends to move with that of its
underlying security, if the Portfolio is to make a profit, the price of the
underlying security must change and the change must be sufficient to cover the
premium and commissions paid.  A price change in the security underlying the
option does not assure a profit since prices in the options market may not
always reflect such a change.

OPTIONS ON SECURITIES INDICES.   The China Growth and Latin American Portfolios
may purchase and write put and call options on securities indices and enter into
a related closing transactions in order to hedge against the risk of market
price fluctuations or to increase income to the Portfolio.

     Call and put options on indices are similar to options on securities except
that, rather than the right to purchase or sell particular securities at a
specified price, options on an index give the holder the right to receive, upon
exercise of the option, an amount of cash if the closing level of the underlying
index is greater than (or less than, in the case of puts) the exercise price of
the option.  This amount of cash is equal to the difference between the closing
price of the index and the exercise price of the option, expressed in dollars
multiplied by a specified number.  Thus, unlike options on individual
securities, all settlements are in cash, and gain or loss depends on price
movements in the particular market represented by the index generally (or in a
particular industry or segment of the market) rather than the price movements in
individual securities.

     All options written on indices must be covered.  When the Portfolio writes
an option on an index, it will establish a segregated account containing cash,
U.S. government securities or other high quality liquid debt securities with its
custodian in an amount at least equal to the market value of the option and will
maintain the account while the option is open or will otherwise cover the
transaction.

     The Portfolio may choose to terminate an option position by entering into a
closing transaction.  The ability of the Portfolio to enter into closing
transactions depends upon the existence of a liquid secondary market for such
transactions.

OPTIONS ON CURRENCIES.  The China Growth and Latin American Portfolios may
purchase and write put and call options on foreign currencies (traded on U.S.
and foreign exchanges or over-the-counter markets) to manage the Portfolio's
exposure to changes in dollar exchange rates.  Call options on foreign currency
written by the Portfolio will be "covered," which means that the Portfolio will
own an equal amount of the underlying foreign currency.  With respect to put
options on foreign currency written by the Portfolio, the Portfolio will
establish a segregated account with the Fund's Custodian consisting of cash,
U.S. government securities or other high quality liquid debt securities in an
amount equal to the amount the Portfolio would be required to pay upon exercise
of the put.

SPECIAL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FORWARD CONTRACTS, FOREIGN CURRENCY FUTURES
CONTRACTS AND OPTIONS THEREON AND OPTIONS ON FOREIGN CURRENCIES.

     Transactions in forward contracts, as well as futures and options on
foreign currencies, are subject to the risk of governmental actions affecting
trading in or the prices of currencies underlying such contracts, which could
restrict or eliminate trading and could have a substantial adverse effect on the
value of positions held by the Portfolios permitted to engage in such hedging
transactions.  In addition, the value of such positions could be adversely
affected by a number of other complex political and economic factors applicable
to the countries issuing the underlying currencies.

     Furthermore, unlike trading in most other types of instruments, there is no
systematic reporting of last sale information with respect to the foreign
currencies underlying forward contracts, futures contracts and options.  As a
result, the available information on which a Portfolio's trading systems will be
based may not be as complete as the comparable data on which such Portfolio
makes investment and trading decisions in connection with securities and other
transactions.  Moreover, because the foreign currency market


                                        8
<PAGE>

is a global, twenty-four hour market, events could occur on that market which
will not be reflected in the forward, futures or options markets until the
following day, thereby preventing a Portfolio from responding to such events in
a timely manner.

     Settlements of over-the-counter forward contracts or of the exercise of
foreign currency options generally must occur within the country issuing the
underlying currency, which in turn requires parties to such contracts to accept
or make delivery of such currencies in conformity with any United States or
foreign restrictions and regulations regarding the maintenance of foreign
banking relationships, fees, taxes or other charges.

     Unlike currency futures contracts and exchange-traded options, options on
foreign currencies and forward contracts are not traded on contract markets
regulated by the CFTC or (with the exception of certain foreign currency
options) the Commission.  In an over-the-counter trading environment, many of
the protections associated with transactions on exchanges will not be available.
For example, there are no daily price fluctuation limits, and adverse market
movements could therefore continue to an unlimited extent over a period of time.
Although the purchaser of an option cannot lose more than the amount of the
premium plus related transaction costs, this entire amount could be lost.
Moreover, an option writer could lose amounts substantially in excess of its
initial investment due to the margin and collateral requirements associated with
such option positions.  Similarly, there is no limit on the amount of potential
losses on forward contracts to which a Portfolio is a party.

     In addition, over-the-counter transactions can only be entered into with a
financial institution willing to take the opposite side, as principal, of a
Portfolio's position unless the institution acts as broker and is able to find
another counterparty willing to enter into the transaction with such Portfolio.
Where no such counterparty is available, it will not be possible to enter into a
desired transaction.  There also may be no liquid secondary market in the
trading of over-the-counter contracts, and a Portfolio may be unable to close
out options purchased or written, or forward contracts entered into, until their
exercise, expiration or maturity.  This in turn could limit a Portfolio's
ability to realize profits or to reduce losses on open positions and could
result in greater losses.

     Furthermore, over-the-counter transactions are not backed by the guarantee
of an exchange's clearing corporation.  A Portfolio will therefore be subject to
the risk of default by, or the bankruptcy of, the financial institution serving
as its counterparty.  One or more of such institutions also may decide to
discontinue its role as market-maker in a particular currency, thereby
restricting a Portfolio's ability to enter into desired hedging transactions.  A
Portfolio will enter into over-the-counter transactions only with parties whose
creditworthiness has been reviewed and found satisfactory by the Adviser.

     Over-the-counter options on foreign currencies, like exchange-traded
commodity futures contracts and commodity option contracts, are within the
exclusive regulatory jurisdiction of the CFTC.  The CFTC currently permits the
trading of such options, but only subject to a number of conditions regarding
the commercial purpose of the purchaser of such options.  The China Growth and
Latin American Portfolios are not able to determine at this time whether or to
what extent the CFTC may impose additional restrictions on the trading of over-
the-counter options on foreign currencies at some point in the future, or the
effect that any restrictions may have on the hedging strategies to be
implemented by the Portfolio.  Forward contracts and currency swaps are not
presently subject to regulation by the CFTC, although the CFTC may in the future
assert or be granted authority to regulate such instruments.  In such event, a
Portfolio's ability to utilize forward contracts and currency swaps in the
manner set forth above and in the Prospectus could be restricted.

     Options on foreign currencies traded on a national securities exchange are
within the jurisdiction of the Commission, as are other securities traded on
such exchanges.  As a result, many of the protections provided to traders on
organized exchanges will be available with respect to such transactions.  In
particular, all foreign currency options positions entered into on a national
securities exchange are cleared and guaranteed by the Options Clearing
Corporation ("OCC"), thereby reducing the risk of counterparty default.
Further, a liquid secondary market in options traded on a national securities
exchange may be more readily available than in the over-the-counter market,
potentially permitting a Portfolio to liquidate open positions at a profit prior
to exercise or expiration, or to limit losses in the event of adverse market
movements.

     The purchase and sale of exchange-traded foreign currency options, however,
is subject to the risks of the availability of a liquid secondary market
described above, as well as the risks regarding adverse market movements,
margining of options written, the nature of the foreign currency market,
possible intervention by governmental authorities and the effect of other
political and economic events.  In addition, exchange-traded options on foreign
currencies involve certain risks not presented by the over-the-counter market.
For example, exercise and settlement of such options must be made exclusively
through the OCC, which has established banking relationships in applicable
foreign countries for this purpose.  As a result, the OCC may, if it determines
that foreign governmental restrictions or taxes would prevent the orderly
settlement of foreign currency option exercises, or would result in undue
burdens on


                                        9
<PAGE>

the OCC or its clearing member, impose special procedures for exercise and
settlement, such as technical changes in the mechanics of delivery of currency,
the fixing of dollar settlement prices or prohibitions on exercise.

EMERGING COUNTRY EQUITY AND DEBT SECURITIES

GENERAL.  Each of the Emerging Markets and Emerging Markets Debt Portfolio's
definition of emerging country equity or debt securities includes securities of
companies that may have characteristics and business relationships common to
companies in a country or countries other than an emerging country. As a result,
the value of the securities of such companies may reflect economic and market
forces applicable to other countries, as well as to an emerging country.  Morgan
Stanley Asset Management Inc. (the "Adviser") believes, however, that investment
in such companies will be appropriate because the Portfolio will invest only in
those companies which, in its view, have sufficiently strong exposure to
economic and market forces in an emerging country such that their value will
tend to reflect developments in such emerging country to a greater extent than
developments in another country or countries.  For example, the Portfolio may
invest in companies organized and located in countries other than an emerging
country, including companies having their entire production facilities outside
of an emerging country, when securities of such companies meet one or more
elements of the Portfolio's definition of an emerging country equity or debt
security and so long as the Adviser believes at the time of investment that the
value of the company's securities will reflect principally conditions in such
emerging country.

     The Emerging Markets Debt Portfolio is subject to no restrictions on the
maturities of the emerging country debt securities it holds; those maturities
may range from overnight to 30 years.  The value of debt securities held by the
Portfolio generally will vary inversely to changes in prevailing interest rates.
The Portfolio's investments in fixed-rated debt securities with longer terms to
maturity are subject to greater volatility than the Portfolio's investments in
shorter-term obligations.  Debt obligations acquired at a discount are subject
to greater fluctuations of market value in response to changing interest rates
than debt obligations of comparable maturities which are not subject to such
discount.

     Investments in emerging country government debt securities involve special
risks.  Certain emerging countries have historically experienced, and may
continue to experience, high rates of inflation, high interest rates, exchange
rate fluctuations, large amounts of external debt, balance of payments and trade
difficulties and extreme poverty and unemployment. The issuer or governmental
authority that controls the repayment of an emerging country's debt may not be
able or willing to repay the principal and/or interest when due in accordance
with the terms of such debt.  As a result of the foregoing, a government obligor
may default on its obligations.  If such an event occurs, the Portfolio may have
limited legal recourse against the issuer and/or guarantor.  Remedies must, in
some cases, be pursued in the courts of the defaulting party itself, and the
ability of the holder of foreign government debt securities to obtain recourse
may be subject to the political climate in the relevant country.   In addition,
no assurance can be given that the holders of commercial bank debt will not
contest payments to the holders of other foreign government debt obligations in
the event of default under their commercial bank loan agreements.

BRADY BONDS.  The Emerging Markets Debt Portfolio may invest in certain debt
obligations customarily referred to as "Brady Bonds," which are created through
the exchange of existing commercial bank loans to foreign entities for new
obligations in connection with debt restructuring under a plan introduced by
former U.S. Secretary of the Treasury Nicholas F. Brady (the "Brady Plan").
Brady Bonds have been issued only recently, and, accordingly, do not have a long
payment history.  They may be collateralized or uncollateralized and issued in
various currencies (although most are U.S. dollar-denominated) and they are
actively traded in the over-the-counter secondary market.  The Portfolio may
purchase Brady Bonds either in the primary or secondary markets.  The price and
yield of Brady Bonds purchased in the secondary market will reflect the market
conditions at the time of purchase, regardless of the stated face amount and the
stated interest rate.  With respect to Brady Bonds with no or limited
collateralization, the Portfolio will rely for payment of interest and principal
primarily on the willingness and ability of the issuing government to make
payment in accordance with the terms of the bonds.

     U.S. dollar-denominated, collateralized Brady Bonds, which may be fixed
rate par bonds or floating rate discount bonds, are generally collateralized in
full as to principal due at maturity by U.S. Treasury zero coupon obligations
which have the same maturity as the Brady Bonds.  Interest payments on these
Brady Bonds generally are collateralized by cash or securities in an amount
that, in the case of fixed rate bonds, is equal to at least one year of rolling
interest payments or, in the case of floating rate bonds, initially is equal to
at least one year's rolling interest payments based on the applicable interest
rate at that time and is adjusted at regular intervals thereafter.  Certain
Brady Bonds are entitled to "value recovery payments" in certain circumstances,
which in effect constitute supplemental interest payments but generally are not
collateralized.  Brady Bonds are often viewed as having three or four valuation
components: (i) the collateralized repayment of principal at final maturity;
(ii) the collateralized interest payments; (iii) the uncollateralized interest
payments; and (iv) any uncollateralized repayment of principal at maturity
(these uncollateralized amounts


                                       10
<PAGE>

constitute the "residual risk").  In the event of a default with respect to
collateralized Brady Bonds as a result of which the payment obligations of the
issuer are accelerated, the U.S. Treasury zero coupon obligations held as
collateral for the payment of principal will not be distributed to investors,
nor will such obligations be sold and the proceeds distributed.  The collateral
will be held to the scheduled maturity of the defaulted Brady Bonds by the
collateral agent, at which time the face amount of the collateral will equal the
principal payments which would have then been due on the Brady Bonds in the
normal course.  In addition, in light of the residual risk of the Brady Bonds
and, among other factors, the history of defaults with respect to commercial
bank loans by public and private entities of countries issuing Brady Bonds,
investments in Brady Bonds should be viewed as speculative.

     Brady Plan debt restructuring totalling approximately $73 billion have been
implemented to date in Argentina, Bulgaria, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Mexico,
Nigeria, the Philippines, Uruguay and Venezuela, with the largest proportion of
Brady Bonds having been issued to date by Mexico and Venezuela.  Brazil and
Poland have announced plans to issue Brady Bonds aggregating approximately $52
billion, based on current estimates.  There can be no assurance that the
circumstances regarding the issuance of Brady Bonds by these countries will not
change.

STRUCTURED SECURITIES.  The Emerging Markets Debt Portfolio may also invest a
portion of its assets in interests in entities organized and operated solely for
the purpose of restructuring the investment characteristics of sovereign debt
obligations.  This type of restructuring involves the deposit with or purchase
by an entity, such as a corporation or trust, of specified instruments (such as
commercial bank loans or Brady Bonds) and the issuance by that entity of one or
more classes of securities ("Structured Securities") backed by, or representing
interests in, the underlying instruments.  The cash flow on the underlying
instruments may be apportioned among the newly issued Structured Securities to
create securities with different investment characteristics such as varying
maturities, payment priorities and interest rate provisions, and the extent of
the payments made with respect to Structured Securities is dependent on the
extent of the cash flow on the underlying instruments.  Because Structured
Securities of the type in which the Portfolio anticipates it will invest
typically involve no credit enhancement, their credit risk generally will be
equivalent to that of the underlying instruments.  The Portfolio is permitted to
invest in a class of Structured Securities that is either subordinated or
unsubordinated to the right of payment of another class.  Subordinated
Structured Securities typically have higher yields and present greater risks
than unsubordinated Structured Securities.  Certain issuers of Structured
Securities may be deemed to be "investment companies" as defined in the 1940
Act.   As a result, the Portfolio's investment in these Structured Securities
may be limited by restrictions contained in the 1940 Act.  Structured Securities
are typically sold in private placement transactions, and there currently is no
active trading market for Structured Securities.

LOAN PARTICIPATIONS AND ASSIGNMENTS.  The Emerging Markets Debt Portfolio may
also invest in fixed and floating rate loans ("Loans") arranged through private
negotiations between an issuer of sovereign debt obligations and one or more
financial institutions ("Lenders").  The Portfolio's investments in Loans are
expected in most instances to be in the form of participations in Loans
("Participations") and assignments of all or a portion of Loans ("Assignments")
from third parties.  The Portfolio's investment in Participations typically will
result in the Portfolio having a contractual relationship only with the Lender
and not with the borrower.  The Portfolio will have the right to receive
payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from
the Lender selling the Participation and only upon receipt by the Lender of the
payments from the borrower.  In connection with purchasing Participations, the
Portfolio generally will have no right to enforce compliance by the borrower
with the terms of the loan agreement relating to the Loan, nor any rights of
set-off against the borrower, and the Portfolio may not directly benefit from
any collateral supporting the Loan in which it has purchased the Participation.
As a result, the Portfolio may be subject to the credit risk of both the
borrower and the Lender that is selling the Participation.  In the event of the
insolvency of the Lender selling a Participation, the Portfolio may be treated
as a general creditor of the Lender and may not benefit from any set-off between
the Lender and the borrower. Certain Participations may be structured in a
manner designed to avoid purchasers of Participations being subject to the
credit risk of the Lender with respect to the Participation, but even under such
a structure, in the event of the Lender's insolvency, the Lender's servicing of
the Participation may be delayed and the assignability of the Participation
impaired.  The Portfolio will acquire Participations only if the Lender
interpositioned between the Portfolio and the borrower is determined by the
Adviser to be creditworthy.

     When the Portfolio purchases Assignments from Lenders it will acquire
direct rights against the borrower on the Loan. Because Assignments are arranged
through private negotiations between potential assignees and potential
assignors, however, the rights and obligations acquired by the Portfolio as the
purchaser of an Assignment may differ from, and be more limited than, those held
by the assigning Lender.  The assignability of certain sovereign debt
obligations is restricted by the governing documentation as to the nature of the
assignee such that the only way in which the Portfolio may acquire an interest
in a loan is through a Participation and not an Assignment.  The Portfolio may
have difficulty disposing of Assignments and Participations because to do so it
will have to assign such securities to a third party.  Because there is no
liquid market for such securities, the Portfolio anticipates that such
securities could be sold only to a limited number of institutional investors.
The lack of a liquid secondary market may have an adverse


                                       11
<PAGE>

impact on the value of such securities and the Portfolio's ability to dispose of
particular Assignments or Participations when necessary to meet the Portfolio's
liquidity needs or in response to a specific economic event such as a
deterioration in the creditworthiness of the borrower.  The lack of a liquid
secondary market for Assignments and Participations also may make it more
difficult for the Portfolio to assign a value to these securities for purposes
of valuing the Portfolio's securities and calculating its net asset value.

SHORT SALES

     The Emerging Markets Debt, Latin American and Aggressive Equity Portfolios
may from time to time sell securities short without limitation but consistent
with applicable legal requirements, although initially the Portfolio does not
intend to sell securities short.  A short sale is a transaction in which the
Portfolio would sell securities it owns or has the right to acquire at no added
cost (i.e., "against the box") or does not own (but has borrowed) in
anticipation of a decline in the market price of the securities.  When the
Portfolio makes a short sale of borrowed securities, the proceeds it receives
from the sale will be held on behalf of a broker until the Portfolio replaces
the borrowed securities.  To deliver the securities to the buyer, the Portfolio
will need to arrange through a broker to borrow the securities and, in so doing,
the Portfolio will become obligated to replace the securities borrowed at their
market price at the time of replacement, whatever that price may be.  The
Portfolio may have to pay a premium to borrow the securities and must pay any
dividends or interest payable on the securities until they are replaced.

     The Portfolio's obligation to replace the securities borrowed in connection
with a short sale will be secured by collateral deposited with the broker that
consists of cash, U.S. Government Securities or other liquid, high grade debt
obligations.  In addition, if the short sale is not "against the box," the
Portfolio will place in a segregated account with its custodian, or designated
sub-custodian, an amount of cash, U.S. Government Securities or other liquid
high grade debt obligations equal to the difference, if any, between (1) the
market value of the securities sold at the time they were sold short and (2) any
cash, U.S. Government Securities or other liquid high grade debt obligations
deposited as collateral with the broker in connection with the short sale (not
including the proceeds of the short sale).  Until it replaces the borrowed
securities, the Portfolio will maintain the segregated account daily at a level
so that (1) the amount deposited in the account plus the amount deposited with
the broker (not including the proceeds from the short sale) will equal the
current market value of the securities sold short and (2) the amount deposited
in the account plus the amount deposited with the broker (not including the
proceeds from the short sale) will not be less than the market value of the
securities at the time they were sold short.

     Short sales by the Portfolio involve certain risks and special
considerations.  Possible losses from short sales differ from losses that could
be incurred from a purchase of a security, because losses from short sales may
be unlimited, whereas losses from purchases can equal only the total amount
invested.

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER

     The portfolio turnover rate for a year is the lesser of the value of the
purchases or sales for the year divided by the average monthly market value of
the Portfolio for the year, excluding U.S. Government securities and securities
with maturities of one year or less.  The portfolio turnover rate for a year is
calculated by dividing the lesser of sales or the average monthly value of the
Portfolio's portfolio purchases of portfolio securities during that year by
securities, excluding money market instruments.  The rate of portfolio turnover
will not be a limiting factor when the Portfolio deems it appropriate to
purchase or sell securities for the Portfolio.  However, the U.S. federal tax
requirement that the Portfolio derive less than 30% of its gross income from the
sale or disposition of securities held less than three months may limit the
Portfolio's ability to dispose of its securities.  See "Taxes."

MORGAN STANLEY CAPITAL INTERNATIONAL EAFE INDEX

     The investment objective of the Active Country Allocation Portfolio is to
provide long-term capital appreciation by investing in accordance with country
weightings determined by the Adviser in common stocks of non-U.S. issuers.  The
Adviser determines country allocations for the Portfolio on an ongoing basis
within policy ranges dictated by each country's market capitalization and
liquidity.  The Portfolio will invest in industrialized countries throughout the
world that comprise the Morgan Stanley Capital International EAFE (Europe,
Australia and the Far East) Index.  The EAFE Index is one of seven International
Indices, twenty National Indices and thirty-eight International Industry Indices
making up the Morgan Stanley Capital International Indices.

     The Morgan Stanley Capital International EAFE Index is based on the share
prices of 1066 companies listed on the stock exchanges of Europe, Australia, New
Zealand and the Far East.  "Europe" includes Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland,
France,


                                       12

Germany, Italy, The Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the
United Kingdom.  "Far East" includes Japan, Hong Kong and Singapore/Malaysia.

                                      TAXES

     The following is only a summary of certain additional federal tax
considerations generally affecting the Fund and its shareholders that are not
described in the Fund's prospectus.  No attempt is made to present a detailed
explanation of the federal, state or local tax treatment of the Fund or its
shareholders, and the discussion here and in the Fund's prospectus is not
intended as a substitute for careful tax planning.

     The following discussion of federal income tax consequences is based on the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and the regulations
issued thereunder as in effect on the date of this Statement of Additional
Information.  New legislation, as well as administrative changes or court
decisions, may significantly change the conclusions expressed herein, and may
have a retroactive effect with respect to the transactions contemplated herein.

     Each Portfolio within the Fund is generally treated as a separate
corporation for federal income tax purposes, and thus the provisions of the Code
generally will be applied to each Portfolio separately, rather than to the Fund
as a whole.

     Each Portfolio intends to qualify and elect to be treated for each taxable
year as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under Subchapter M of the Code.
Accordingly, each Portfolio must, among other things, (a) derive at least 90% of
its gross income each taxable year from dividends, interest, payments with
respect to securities loans, gains from the sale or other disposition of stock,
securities or foreign currencies, and certain other related income, including,
generally, certain gains from options, futures and forward contracts; (b) derive
less than 30% of its gross income each taxable year from the sale or other
disposition of the following items if held less than three months (A) stock or
securities, (B) options, futures or forward contracts (other than options,
futures or forward contracts on foreign currencies), and (C) foreign currencies
(or options, futures, or forward contracts on foreign currencies) that are not
directly related to the Portfolio's principal business of investing in stocks or
securities (or options or futures with respect to stock or securities) (the
"short-short test") and (c) diversify its holdings so that, at the end of each
fiscal quarter of the Portfolio's taxable year, (i) at least 50% of the market
value of the Portfolio's total assets is represented by cash and cash items,
United States Government securities, securities of other RICs, and other
securities, with such other securities limited, in respect to any one issuer, to
an amount not greater than 5% of the value of the Portfolio's total assets or
10% of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer, and (ii) not more than
25% of the value of its total assets is invested in the securities (other than
United States Government securities or securities of other RICs) of any one
issuer or two or more issuers which the Portfolio controls and which are engaged
in the same, similar, or related trades or business.  For purposes of the 90% of
gross income requirement described above, foreign currency gains which are not
directly related to a Portfolio's principal business of investing in stock or
securities (or options or futures with respect to stock or securities) may be
excluded from income that qualifies under the 90% requirement.

     In addition to the requirements described above, in order to qualify as a
RIC, a Portfolio must distribute at least 90% of its net investment income
(which generally includes dividends, taxable interest, and the excess of net
short-term capital gains over net long-term capital losses less operating
expenses) and at least 90% of its net tax-exempt interest income, if any, to
shareholders.  If a Portfolio meets all of the RIC requirements, it will not be
subject to federal income tax on any of its net investment income or capital
gains that it distributes to shareholders.

     If a Portfolio fails to qualify as a RIC for any year, all of its income
will be subject to tax at corporate rates, and its distributions (including
capital gains distributions) will be taxable as ordinary income dividends to its
shareholders to the extent of the Portfolio's current and accumulated earnings
and profits, and will be eligible for the corporate dividends received deduction
for corporate shareholders.

     Each Portfolio will decide whether to distribute or to retain all or part
of any net capital gains (the excess of net long-term capital gains over net
short-term capital losses) in any year for reinvestment.  If any such gains are
retained, the Portfolio will pay federal income tax thereon, and, if the
portfolio makes an election, the shareholders will include such undistributed
gains in their income, will increase their basis in Portfolio shares by 65% of
the amount included in their income and will be able to claim their share of the
tax paid by the Portfolio as a refundable credit against their federal income
tax liability.

     A gain or loss realized by a shareholder on the sale or exchange of shares
of a Portfolio held as a capital asset will be capital gain or loss, and such
gain or loss will be long-term if the holding period for the shares exceeds one
year, and otherwise will be short-


                                       13
<PAGE>

term.  Any loss realized on a sale or exchange of shares of a Portfolio will be
disallowed to the extent the shares disposed of are replaced within the 61-day
period beginning 30 days before and ending 30 days after the shares are disposed
of.  Any loss realized by a shareholder on the disposition of shares held 6
months or less is treated as a long-term capital loss to the extent of any
distributions of net long-term capital gains received by the shareholder with
respect to such shares or any inclusion of undistributed capital gain with
respect to such shares.

     Each Portfolio will generally be subject to a nondeductible 4% federal
excise tax to the extent it fails to distribute by the end of any calendar year
at least 98% of its ordinary income for that year and 98% of its capital gain
net income (the excess of short- and long-term capital gains over short- and
long-term capital losses) for the one-year period ending on October 31 of that
year, plus certain other amounts.

     Each Portfolio is required by federal law to withhold 31% of reportable
payments (which may include dividends, capital gains distributions, and
redemptions) paid to shareholders who have not certified on the Account
Registration Form or on a separate form supplied by the Portfolio, that the
Social Security or Taxpayer Identification Number provided is correct and that
the shareholder is exempt from backup withholding or is not currently subject to
backup withholding.

     For certain transactions, each Portfolio is required for federal income tax
purposes to recognize as gain or loss its net unrealized gains and losses on
forward currency and futures contracts as of the end of each taxable year, as
well as those actually realized during the year.  In most cases, any such gain
or loss recognized with respect to a regulated futures contract is considered to
be 60% long-term capital gain or loss and 40% short-term capital gain or loss,
without regard to the holding period of the contract.  Realized gain or loss
attributable to a foreign currency forward contract is treated as 100% ordinary
income.  Furthermore, foreign currency futures contracts which are intended to
hedge against a change in the value of securities held by a Portfolio may affect
the holding period of such securities and, consequently, the nature of the gain
or loss on such securities upon disposition.

     As discussed above, in order for each Portfolio to continue to qualify for
federal income tax treatment as a RIC, at least 90% of its gross income for a
taxable year must be derived from certain qualifying income, including
dividends, interest, income derived from loans of securities, and gains from the
sale or other disposition of stock, securities or foreign currencies, or other
related income, including gains from options, futures and forward contracts,
derived with respect to its business of investing in stock, securities or
currencies.  Any net gain realized from the closing out of futures contracts
will therefore generally be qualifying income for purposes of the 90%
requirement.  Qualification as a RIC also requires that less than 30% of a
Portfolio's gross income be derived from the sale or other disposition of stock,
securities, options, futures or forward contracts (including certain foreign
currencies not directly related to the Fund's business of investing in stock or
securities) held less than three months.  In order to avoid realizing excessive
gains on futures contracts held less than three months, the Portfolio may be
required to defer the closing out of futures contracts beyond the time when it
would otherwise be advantageous to do so.

     Short sales engaged in by a Portfolio may reduce the holding property held
by a Portfolio which is substantially identical to the property sold short.
This rule may make it more difficult for the Portfolio to satisfy the short-
short test.  This rule may also have the effect of converting capital gains
recognized by the Portfolio from long-term to short-term as well as converting
capital losses recognized by the Portfolio from short-term to long-term.


                     SPECIAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS RELATING TO
                               MUNICIPAL BOND AND
                        MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIOS

     Each of the Municipal Bond Portfolio and the Municipal Money Market
Portfolio will qualify to pay "exempt interest dividends" to its shareholders
provided that, at the close of each quarter of its taxable year at least 50% of
the value of its total assets consists of obligations the interest on which is
exempt from federal income tax.  Current federal tax law limits the types and
volume of bonds qualifying for federal income tax exemption of interest, which
may have an effect on the ability of these Portfolios to purchase sufficient
amounts of tax-exempt securities to satisfy this requirement.  Any loss on the
sale or exchange of shares of the Municipal Bond Portfolio or the Municipal
Money Market Portfolio held for six months or less will be disallowed to the
extent of any exempt-interest dividends received by the selling shareholder with
respect to such shares.

     As noted in the Prospectus for the Municipal Bond Portfolio and the
Municipal Money Market Portfolio, exempt-interest dividends are excludable from
a shareholder's gross income for regular Federal income tax purposes.  Exempt-
interest dividends may


                                       14
<PAGE>

nevertheless be subject to the alternative minimum tax (the "Alternative Minimum
Tax") imposed by Section 55 of the Code or the environmental tax (the
"Environmental Tax") imposed by Section 59A of the Code.  The Alternative
Minimum Tax is imposed at the rate of up to 28% in the case of non-corporate
taxpayers and at the rate of 20% in the case of corporate taxpayers, to the
extent it exceeds the taxpayer's regular tax liability.  The Environmental Tax
is imposed at the rate of 0.12% and applies only to corporate taxpayers.  The
Alternative Minimum Tax and the Environmental Tax may be affected by the receipt
of exempt-interest dividends in two circumstances.  First, exempt-interest
dividends derived from certain "private activity bonds" issued after August 7,
1986, will generally be an item of tax preference and therefore potentially
subject to the Alternative Minimum Tax and the Environmental Tax.  The
Portfolios intend, when possible, to avoid investing in private activity bonds.
Second, in the case of exempt-interest dividends received by corporate
shareholders, all exempt-interest dividends, regardless of when the bonds from
which they are derived were issued or whether they are derived from private
activity bonds, will be included in the corporation's "adjusted current
earnings," as defined in Section 56(g) of the Code, in calculating the
corporation's alternative minimum taxable income for purposes of determining the
Alternative Minimum Tax and the Environmental Tax.

     The percentage of income that constitutes "exempt-interest dividends" will
be determined for each year for the Municipal Bond Portfolio and the Municipal
Money Market Portfolio and will be applied uniformly to all dividends declared
with respect to the Portfolios during that year.  This percentage may differ
from the actual percentage for any particular day.

     Interest on indebtedness incurred or continued by shareholders to purchase
or carry shares of the Municipal Bond Portfolio or the Municipal Money Market
Portfolio will not be deductible for federal income tax purposes.  The deduction
otherwise allowable to property and casualty insurance companies for "losses
incurred" will be reduced by an amount equal to a portion of exempt-interest
dividends received or accrued during any taxable year.  Foreign corporations
engaged in a trade or business in the United States will be subject to a "branch
profits tax" on their "dividend equivalent amount" for the taxable year, which
will include exempt-interest dividends.  Certain Subchapter S corporations may
also be subject to taxes on their "passive investment income," which could
include exempt-interest dividends.  Up to 85% of the Social Security benefits or
railroad retirement benefits received by an individual during any taxable year
will be included in the gross income of such individual if the individual's
"modified adjusted gross income" (which includes exempt-interest dividends) plus
one-half of the Social Security benefits or railroad retirement benefits
received by such individual during that taxable year exceeds the base amount
described in Section 86 of the Code.

     Entities or persons who are "substantial users" (or persons related to
"substantial users") of facilities financed by industrial development bonds or
private activity bonds should consult their tax advisors before purchasing
shares of the Municipal Bond Portfolio or the Municipal Money Market Portfolio.
"Substantial user" is defined generally for these purposes as including a "non-
exempt person" who regularly uses in trade or business a part of a facility
financed from the proceeds of such bonds.

     Issuers of bonds purchased by the Municipal Bond Portfolio (or the
beneficiary of such bonds) may have made certain representations or covenants in
connection with the issuance of such bonds to satisfy certain requirements of
the Code that must be satisfied subsequent to the issuance of such bonds.
Investors should be aware that exempt-interest dividends derived from such bonds
may become subject to federal income taxation retroactively to the date thereof
if such representations are determined to have been inaccurate or if the issuer
of such bonds (or the beneficiary of such bonds) fails to comply with such
covenants.


           SPECIAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS RELATING TO FOREIGN INVESTMENTS

     Gains or losses attributable to foreign currency contracts, or to
fluctuations in exchange rates that occur between the time a Portfolio accrues
interest or other receivables or accrues expenses or other liabilities
denominated in a foreign currency and the time the Portfolio actually collects
such receivables or pays such liabilities are treated as ordinary income or
ordinary loss to the Portfolio.  Similarly, gains or losses on disposition of
debt securities denominated in a foreign currency attributable to fluctuations
in the value of the foreign currency between the date of acquisition of the
security and the date of disposition also are treated as ordinary gain or loss
to the Portfolio.  These gains or losses increase or decrease the amount of a
Portfolio's net investment income available to be distributed to its
shareholders as ordinary income.

     It is expected that each Portfolio will be subject to foreign withholding
taxes with respect to its dividend and interest income from foreign countries,
and a Portfolio may be subject to foreign income taxes with respect to other
income.  So long as more than 50% in value of a Portfolio's total assets at the
close of the taxable year consists of stock or securities of foreign
corporations, the Portfolio may elect to treat certain foreign income taxes
imposed on it for United States federal income tax purposes as paid directly by
its shareholders.  A Portfolio will make such an election only if it deems it to
be in the best interest of its shareholders and will


                                       15
<PAGE>

notify shareholders in writing each year if it makes an election and of the
amount of foreign income taxes, if any, to be treated as paid by the
shareholders.  If a Portfolio makes the election, shareholders will be required
to include in income their proportionate shares of the amount of foreign income
taxes treated as imposed on the Portfolio and will be entitled to claim either a
credit (subject to the limitations discussed below) or, if they itemize
deductions, a deduction, for their shares of the foreign income taxes in
computing their federal income tax liability.

     Shareholders who choose to utilize a credit (rather than a deduction) for
foreign taxes will be subject to a number of complex limitations regarding the
availability and utilization of the credit.  Because of these limitations,
shareholders may be unable to claim a credit for the full amount of their
proportionate shares of the foreign income taxes paid by a Portfolio.
Shareholders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the application
of these rules to their particular circumstances.


                         TAXES AND FOREIGN SHAREHOLDERS

     Taxation of a shareholder who, as to the United States, is a nonresident
alien individual, a foreign trust or estate, a foreign corporation, or foreign a
partnership ("Foreign Shareholder") depends on whether the income from the
Portfolio is "effectively connected" with a U.S. trade or business carried on by
such shareholder.

     If the income from the Portfolio is not effectively connected with a U.S.
trade or business carried on by a Foreign Shareholder, distributions of net
investment income plus the excess of net  short-term capital gains over net
long-term capital losses will be subject to U.S. withholding tax at the rate of
30% (or such lower treaty rate as may be applicable) upon the gross amount of
the dividend.  Furthermore, Foreign Shareholders will generally be exempt from
U.S. federal income tax on gains realized on the sale of shares of the
Portfolio, distributions of net long-term capital gains, and amounts retained by
the Fund which are designated as undistributed capital gains.

     If the income from the Portfolio is effectively connected with a U.S. trade
or business carried on by a Foreign Shareholder, then distributions from the
Portfolio and any gains realized upon the sale of shares of the Portfolio, will
be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the rates applicable to U.S. citizens
and residents or domestic corporations.

     The Portfolio may be required to withhold U.S. federal income tax on
distributions that are otherwise exempt from withholding tax (or taxable at a
reduced treaty rate) unless the Foreign Shareholder complies with Internal
Revenue Service certification requirements.

     The tax consequences to a Foreign Shareholder entitled to claim the
benefits of an applicable tax treaty may differ from those described here.
Furthermore, Foreign Shareholders are strongly urged to consult their own tax
advisors with respect to the particular tax consequences to them of an
investment in a Portfolio, including the potential application of the provisions
of the Foreign Investment in Real Estate Property Tax Act of 1980, as amended.


                               PURCHASE OF SHARES

     The purchase price of shares of each Portfolio of the Fund is the net asset
value next determined after the order is received.  For each Portfolio of the
Fund other then the Money Market or Municipal Market Portfolios, an order
received prior to the regular close of the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE")
will be executed at the price computed on the date of receipt; and an order
received after the regular close of the NYSE will be executed at the price
computed on the next day the NYSE is open.  Shares of the Money Market and
Municipal Money Market Portfolios may be purchased at the net asset value per
share at the price next determined after Federal Funds are available to such
Portfolios.  Shares of the Fund may be purchased on any day the NYSE is open.
The NYSE will be closed on the following days:  Labor Day, September 4, 1995;
Thanksgiving Day, November 23, 1995; Christmas Day, December 25, 1995; New
Year's Day, January 1, 1996; Presidents' Day, February 19, 1996; and Good
Friday, April 5, 1996; Memorial Day, May 27, 1996; Independence Day, July 4,
1996.

     Each Portfolio reserves the right in its sole discretion (i) to suspend the
offering of its shares, (ii) to reject purchase orders when in the judgment of
management such rejection is in the best interest of the Fund, and (iii) to
reduce or waive the minimum for initial and subsequent investments for certain
fiduciary accounts such as employee benefit plans or under circumstances where
certain economies can be achieved in sales of a Portfolio's shares.  The
International Equity Portfolio is currently limiting investments in the


                                       16
<PAGE>

Portfolio to: (i) reinvested dividends and distributions by existing
shareholders of the Portfolio; (ii) additional investments by existing
shareholders of the Portfolio; (iii) investments by employees of Morgan Stanley;
and (iv) investors who were in the process of becoming shareholders of the
Portfolio at the time the Portfolio limited further investments.


                              REDEMPTION OF SHARES

     Each Portfolio may suspend redemption privileges or postpone the date of
payment (i) during any period that the NYSE is closed, or trading on the NYSE is
restricted as determined by the Commission, (ii) during any period when an
emergency exists as defined by the rules of the Commission as a result of which
it is not reasonably practicable for a Portfolio to dispose of securities owned
by it, or fairly to determine the value of its assets, and (iii) for such other
periods as the Commission may permit.

     No charge is made by any Portfolio for redemptions except for the 1%
transaction fee assessed upon redemption of the International Small Cap
Portfolio.  Any redemption may be more or less than the shareholder's cost
depending on the market value of the securities held by the Portfolio.

     To protect your account and the Fund from fraud, signature guarantees are
required for certain redemptions.  Signature guarantees enable the Fund to
verify the identity of the person who has authorized a redemption from your
account.  Signature guarantees are required in connection with:  (1) all
redemptions, regardless of the amount involved, when the proceeds are to be paid
to someone other than the registered owner(s) and/or registered address; and
(2) share transfer requests.

     A guarantor must be a bank, a trust company, a member firm of a domestic
stock exchange, or a foreign branch of any of the foregoing.  Notaries public
are not acceptable guarantors.

     The signature guarantees must appear either:  (1) on the written request
for redemption; (2) on a separate instrument for assignment ("stock power")
which should specify the total number of shares to be redeemed; or (3) on all
stock certificates tendered for redemption and, if shares held by the Fund are
also being redeemed, on the letter or stock power.


                              SHAREHOLDER SERVICES

     The following supplements the Shareholder Services section set forth in the
Fund's Prospectuses:

EXCHANGE PRIVILEGE

     Shares of each Portfolio of the Fund may be exchanged for shares of any
other Portfolio (except the International Equity Portfolio).  Exchange requests
should be sent to Morgan Stanley Institutional Fund, Inc., P.O. Box 2798,
Boston, Massachusetts 02208-2798.

     Any such exchange will be based on the respective net asset values of the
shares involved.  There is no sales commission or charge of any kind.  Before
making an exchange, a shareholder should consider the investment objectives of
the Portfolio to be purchased.

     Exchange requests may be made either by mail or telephone.  Telephone
exchanges will be accepted only if the certificates for the shares to be
exchanged are held by the Fund for the account of the shareholder and the
registration of the two accounts will be identical.  Requests for exchanges
received prior to 10:00 am. (Eastern Time) for the Municipal Money Market
Portfolio, 11:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) for the Money Market Portfolio, and 4:00
p.m. (Eastern Time) for the remaining Portfolios will be processed as of the
close of business on the same day.  Requests received after these times will be
processed on the next business day.  Exchanges may be subject to limitations as
to amounts or frequency, and to other restrictions established by the Board of
Directors to assure that such exchanges do not disadvantage the Fund and its
shareholders.

     For federal income tax purposes an exchange between Portfolios is a taxable
event for shareholders subject to tax, and, accordingly, a gain or loss may be
realized.  The exchange privilege may be modified or terminated at any time.

TRANSFER OF SHARES

     Shareholders may transfer shares of the Fund's Portfolios to another person
by making a written request to the Fund.  The request should clearly identify
the account and number of shares to be transferred, and include the signature of
all registered owners and all stock certificates, if any, which are subject to
the transfer.  The signature on the letter of request, the stock certificate or
any stock power must be guaranteed in the same manner as described under
"Redemption of Shares."  As in the case of redemptions, the written request must
be received in good order before any transfer can be made.


                             INVESTMENT LIMITATIONS

not:

     (1)  purchase or sell physical commodities unless acquired as a result of

total assets, more than 5% of the Portfolio's total assets, at market value,
would be invested in the securities of such issuer;

     (5)  issue senior securities and will not borrow, except from banks and as
a temporary measure for extraordinary or emergency purposes and then, in no
event, in excess of 33 1/3% of its total assets (including the amount borrowed)

result of such acquisition, more than 25% of the value of the Portfolio's total
assets would be invested in securities of companies within such industry;

obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or
instrumentalities, or (in the case of the Money Market Portfolio or the

the Latin American Portfolio may invest more than 25% of its total assets in

     In addition, each current Portfolio of the Fund has adopted non-fundamental

Such limitations may be changed without shareholder approval.  Each current
Portfolio of the Fund will not:

     (1)  purchase on margin or sell short, except (i) that the Emerging Markets
Debt, Latin American and Aggressive Equity Portfolios may from time to time sell
securities short without limitation but consistent with applicable legal
requirements as stated in


                                       18
<PAGE>

its prospectus, (ii) that each of the Active Country Allocation, Equity Growth,
Gold, China Growth and Aggressive Equity Portfolios may enter into option

     (6)  invest more than 5% of its total assets in securities of companies
which have (with predecessors) a record of less than three years' continuous

warrants, valued at the lower of cost or market.  Included within this amount,
but not to exceed 2% of the value of the Portfolio's net assets, may be warrants
that are not listed on a recognized stock exchange;

     (8)  except for the U.S. Real Estate Portfolio, invest in real estate

financial institutions so long as such loans are not inconsistent with the 1940
Act or the Rules and Regulations or interpretations of the Commission
thereunder;

     (10) invest in oil, gas or other mineral leases; and

that not more than 5% of the Portfolio's total assets are required as deposits
to secure obligations under options and not more than 20% of its total assets
are invested in options, futures contracts and options on futures contracts at
any time.

     The Balanced, Fixed Income and Value Equity Portfolios will only issue
shares for securities or assets other than cash in a bona fide reorganization,
statutory merger, or in other acquisitions of portfolio securities (except for
municipal debt securities issued by state political subdivisions or their
agencies or instrumentalities) which (i) meet their respective investment
objectives;  (ii) are acquired for investment and not for resale.

     Each of the Global Fixed Income, Emerging Markets, Emerging Markets Debt,
China Growth, Latin American, Aggressive Equity and U.S. Real Estate Portfolios

year, (i) at least 50% of the market value of the Portfolio's total assets is
represented by cash (including cash items and receivables), U.S. Government
securities, and other securities, with such other securities limited, in respect
of any one issuer, for purposes of this calculation to an amount not greater
than 5% of the value of the Portfolio's  total assets and 10% of the outstanding
voting securities of such issuer, and (ii) not more than 25% of the value of its

different limitations.

                  DETERMINING MATURITIES OF CERTAIN INSTRUMENTS

     Generally, the maturity of a portfolio instrument shall be deemed to be the
period remaining until the date noted on the face of the instrument as the date
on which the principal amount must be paid, or in the case of an instrument
called for redemption, the date on which the redemption payment must be made.
However, instruments having variable or floating interest rates or demand
features may be deemed to have remaining maturities as follows:  (1) a
Government Obligation with a variable rate of interest readjusted no less
frequently than annually may be deemed to have a maturity equal to the period
remaining until the next readjustment of the interest rate; (b) an instrument
with a variable rate of interest, the principal amount of which is scheduled on
the face of the instrument to be paid in one year or less, may be deemed to have
a maturity equal to the period remaining until the next readjustment of the
interest rate; (c) an instrument with a variable rate of interest that is
subject to a demand feature may be deemed to have a maturity equal to the longer
of the period remaining until the next readjustment of the interest rate or the
period remaining until the principal amount can be recovered through demand;
(d) an instrument with a floating rate of interest that is subject to a demand
feature may be deemed to have a maturity equal to the period remaining until the
principal amount can be recovered through demand; and (e) a repurchase agreement
may be deemed to have a maturity equal to the period remaining until the date on
which the repurchase of the underlying securities is scheduled to occur, or
where no date is specified, but the agreement is subject to demand, the notice
period applicable to a demand for the repurchase of the securities.

the Sub-Adviser (the "Sub-Advisory Agreement").  The Adviser and the Sub-Adviser
have entered into an indemnification agreement under


                                       27
<PAGE>

which, generally, the Sub-Adviser has agreed to indemnify the Adviser and the
Fund for claims or losses in connection with any failure by the Sub-Adviser to
comply with its obligations under the Sub-Advisory Agreement or related
agreements or any act or omission that amounts to negligence, misfeasance or bad

CODE OF ETHICS

     The Board of Directors of the Fund has adopted a Code of Ethics under Rule
17j-1 of the 1940 Act which incorporates the Code of Ethics of the Adviser
(together, the "Codes").  The Codes significantly restrict the personal
investing activities of all employees of the Adviser and, as described below,
impose additional, more onerous, restrictions on the Fund's investment
personnel.

     The Codes require that all employees of the Adviser preclear any personal
securities investment (with limited exceptions, such as government securities).
The preclearance requirement and associated procedures are designed to identify
any substantive prohibition or limitation applicable to the proposed investment.
The substantive restrictions applicable to all employees of the Adviser include
a ban on acquiring any securities in a "hot" initial public offering and a
prohibition from profiting on short-term trading in securities.  In addition, no
employee may purchase or sell any security that at the time is being purchased
or sold (as the case may be), or to the knowledge of the employee is being
considered for purchase or sale, by any fund advised by the Adviser.
Furthermore, the Codes provide for trading "blackout periods" that prohibit
trading by investment personnel of the Fund within periods of trading by the
Fund in the same (or equivalent) security.

                   NET ASSET VALUE FOR MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIOS

     The Money Market Portfolio and the Municipal Money Market Portfolio seek to
maintain a stable net asset value per share of $1.00.  These Portfolios use the
amortized cost method of valuing their securities, which does not take into
account unrealized gains or losses.  The use of amortized cost and the
maintenance of each Portfolio's per share net asset value at $1.00 is based on
the Portfolio's election to operate under the provisions of Rule 2a-7 under the
1940 Act.  As a condition of operating under that Rule, each of the Money Market
Portfolios must maintain a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of 90 days
or less, purchase only instruments having remaining maturities of 397 days or
less, and invest only in securities which are of "eligible quality" as
determined in accordance with regulations of the Commission.

     The Rule also requires that the Directors, as a particular responsibility
within the overall duty of care owed to shareholders, establish procedures
reasonably designed, taking into account current market conditions and each
Portfolio's investment objectives, to stabilize the net asset value per share as
computed for the purposes of sales and redemptions at $1.00. These procedures
include periodic review, as the Directors deem appropriate and at such intervals
as are reasonable in light of current market conditions, of the relationship
between the amortized cost value per share and a net asset value per share based
upon available indications of market value.  In such review, investments for
which market quotations are readily available are valued at the most recent bid
price or quoted yield available for such securities or for securities of
comparable maturity, quality and type as obtained from one or more of the major
market makers for the securities to be valued.  Other investments and assets are
valued at fair value, as determined in good faith by the Directors.

     In the event of a deviation of over 1/2 of 1% between a Portfolio's net
asset value based upon available market quotations or market equivalents and
$1.00 per share based on amortized cost, the Directors will promptly consider
what action, if any, should be taken.  The Directors will also take such action
as they deem appropriate to eliminate or to reduce to the extent reasonably
practicable any material dilution or other unfair results which might arise from
differences between the two.  Such action may include redemption in kind,
selling instruments prior to maturity to realize capital gains or losses or to
shorten the average maturity, withholding dividends, paying distributions from
capital or capital gains or utilizing a net asset value per share as determined
by using available market quotations.

     There are various methods of valuing the assets and of paying dividends and
distributions from a money market fund.  Each of the Money Market and Municipal
Money Market Portfolios values its assets at amortized cost while also
monitoring the available market bid price, or yield equivalents.  Since
dividends from net investment income will be declared daily and paid monthly,
the net asset value per share of each Portfolio will ordinarily remain at $1.00,
but each Portfolio's daily dividends will vary in amount.  Net realized gains,
if any, will normally be declared and paid monthly.


                             PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

     The Fund may from time to time quote various performance figures to
illustrate the Portfolios' past performance.

     Performance quotations by investment companies are subject to rules adopted
by the Commission, which require the use of standardized performance quotations.
In the case of total return, non-standardized performance quotations may be
furnished by the Fund but must be accompanied by certain standardized
performance information computed as required by the Commission. Current


                                       30
<PAGE>

yield and average annual compounded total return quotations used by the Fund are
based on the standardized methods of computing performance mandated by the
Commission.  An explanation of those and other methods used by the Fund to
compute or express performance follows.

TOTAL RETURN

     From time to time the Portfolios may advertise total return.  Total return
figures are based on historical earnings and are not intended to indicate future
performance.  The average annual total return is determined by finding the
average annual compounded rates of return over 1-, 5-, and 10-year periods (or
over the life of the Portfolio) that would equate an initial hypothetical $1,000
investment to its ending redeemable value.  The calculation assumes that all
dividends and distributions are reinvested when paid.  The quotation assumes the
amount was completely redeemed at the end of each 1-, 5-, and 10-year period (or
over the life of the Portfolio) and the deduction of all applicable Fund
expenses on an annual basis.

     The average annual compounded rates of return (unless otherwise noted) for
the Fund's Portfolios for the one year and five year periods ended December 31,
1994 and for the period from inception through December 31, 1994 are as follows:

These figures were calculated according to the following

                    n
  formula:  P(1 + T)  = ERV

where:

P    =    a hypothetical initial payment of $1,000

T    =    average annual total return

n    =    number of years

ERV  =    ending redeemable value of hypothetical $1,000 payment made at the
          beginning of the 1-, 5-, or 10-year periods at the end of the 1-, 5-,
          or 10-year periods (or fractional portion thereof).

CALCULATION OF YIELD FOR NON-MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIOS

From time to time certain of the Fund's Portfolios may advertise yield.

Current yield reflects the income per share earned by a Portfolio's investments.

     Current yield is determined by dividing the net investment income per share
earned during a 30-day base period by the maximum offering price per share on
the last day of the period and annualizing the result.  Expenses accrued for the
period include any fees charged to all shareholders during the base period.

     The respective yields for certain of the Fund's Portfolios for the 30-day
period ended December 31, 1994 were as follows:

     a    =    dividends and interest earned during the period
     b    =    expenses accrued for the period (net of reimbursements)
     c    =    the average daily number of shares outstanding during the period
               that were entitled to receive income distributions
     d    =    the maximum offering price per share on the last day of the
               period.

CALCULATION OF YIELD FOR MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIOS

     The current yield of the Money Market and Municipal Money Market Portfolios
is calculated daily on a base period return for a hypothetical account having a
beginning balance of one share for a particular period of time (generally 7
days).  The return is determined by dividing the net change (exclusive of any
capital changes in such account) by its average net asset value for the period,
and then multiplying it by 365/7 to determine the annualized current yield.  The
calculation of net change reflects the value of additional shares purchased with
the dividends by the Portfolio, including dividends on both the original share
and on such additional shares.  The yields of the Money Market and Municipal
Money Market Portfolios for the 7-day period ended December 31, 1994 were 5.24%
and 3.75%, respectively.  An effective yield, which reflects the effects of
compounding and represents an annualization of the current yield with all
dividends reinvested, may also be calculated for each Portfolio by dividing the
base period return by 7, adding 1 to the quotient, raising the sum to the 365th
power, and subtracting 1 from the result.  The effective yields of the Money
Market Portfolios and the Municipal Money Market Portfolio for the 7-day period
ended December 31, 1994 were 5.37% and 3.82%, respectively.

     The yield of a Portfolio will fluctuate.  The annualization of a week's
dividend is not a representation by the Portfolio as to what an investment in
the Portfolio will actually yield in the future.  Actual yields will depend on
such variables as investment quality, average maturity, the type of instruments
the Portfolio invests in, changes in interest rates on instruments, changes in
the expenses of the Fund and other factors.  Yields are one basis investors may
use to analyze the Portfolios of the Fund, and other investment vehicles;
however, yields of other investment vehicles may not be comparable because of
the factors set forth in the preceding sentence, differences in the time periods
compared, and differences in the methods used in valuing portfolio instruments,
computing net asset value and calculating yield.

TAXABLE EQUIVALENT YIELD FOR THE MUNICIPAL BOND AND MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET
PORTFOLIO

     It is easy to calculate your own taxable equivalent yield if you know your
tax bracket.  The formula is:


                 Tax Free Yield
             ---------------------
             1 - Your Tax Bracket   =   Your Taxable Equivalent Yield

     For example, if you are in the 28% tax bracket and can earn a tax-free
yield of 7.5%, the taxable equivalent yield would be 10.42%.

      The table below indicates the advantages of investments in Municipal Bonds
for certain investors.  Tax-exempt rates of interest payable on a Municipal Bond
(shown at the top of each column) are equivalent to the taxable yields set forth
opposite the respective income tax levels, based on income tax rates effective
for the tax year 1994 under the Internal Revenue Code.  There can, of course, be
no guarantee that the Municipal Bond Portfolio or Municipal Money Market
Portfolio will achieve a specific yield.  Also, it is possible that some portion
of the Portfolio's dividends may be subject to Federal income taxes. A
substantial portion, if not all, of such dividends may be subject to state and
local taxes.

               countries.  At $96 billion, its market cap is nearly 50% higher
               than the EMBI's.  The EMBI+ is not, however, intended to replace
               the EMBI  but rather to complement it. The EMBI continues to
               represent the most liquid, most easily traded segment of the

               portfolios. Both of these indices are published daily.

     In assessing such comparisons of performance an investor should keep in
mind that the composition of the investments in the reported indices and
averages is not identical to the composition of investments in the Fund's
Portfolios, that the averages are generally unmanaged, and that the items
included in the calculations of such averages may not be identical to the
formula used by the Fund to calculate its futures.  In addition, there can be no
assurance that the Fund will continue this performance as compared to such other
averages.
                               GENERAL INFORMATION

DESCRIPTION OF SHARES AND VOTING RIGHTS

     The Fund's Articles of Incorporation, as supplemented, permit the Directors
to issue 17,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share, from
an unlimited number of classes ("Portfolios") of shares.  Currently the Fund
consists of shares of twenty-seven Portfolios (the China Growth, Mortgage-Backed
Securities and Real Yield Portfolios are not currently offering shares).

     The shares of each Portfolio of the Fund are fully paid and nonassessable,
and have no preference as to conversion, exchange, dividends, retirement or
other features.  The shares of each Portfolio of the Fund have no pre-emptive
rights.  The shares of the Fund have non-cumulative voting rights, which means
that the holders of more than 50% of the shares voting for the election of
Directors
                                       36
<PAGE>

can elect 100% of the Directors if they choose to do so.  A shareholder is
entitled to one vote for each full share held (and a fractional vote for each
fractional share held), then standing in his name on the books of the Fund.

DIVIDENDS AND CAPITAL GAINS DISTRIBUTIONS

     The Fund's policy is to distribute substantially all of each Portfolio's
net investment income, if any.  The Fund may also distribute any net realized
capital gains in the amount and at the times that will avoid both income
(including taxable gains) taxes on it and the imposition of the federal excise
tax on income and capital gains (see discussion under "Taxes" in this Statement
of Additional Information).  However, the Fund may also choose to retain net
realized capital gains and pay taxes on such gains.  The amounts of any income
dividends or capital gains distributions cannot be predicted.

     Any dividend or distribution paid shortly after the purchase of shares of a
Portfolio by an investor may have the effect of reducing the per share net asset
value of that Portfolio by the per share amount of the dividend or distribution.
Furthermore, such dividends or distributions, although in effect a return of
capital, are subject to income taxes for shareholders subject to tax as set
forth herein and in the Prospectus.

     As set forth in the Prospectus, unless the shareholder elects otherwise in
writing, all dividends and capital gains distributions are automatically
received in additional shares of that Portfolio of the Fund at net asset value
(as of the business day following the record date).  This automatic reinvestment
of dividends and distributions will remain in effect until the Fund is notified
by the shareholder in writing at least three days prior to the record date that
either the Income Option (income dividends in cash and capital gains
distributions in additional shares at net asset value) or the Cash Option (both
income dividends and capital gains distributions in cash) has been elected.

CUSTODY ARRANGEMENTS

     United States Trust Company of New York serves as the Fund's domestic
custodian.  United States Trust Company of New York is not affiliated with
Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated.  Morgan Stanley Trust Company, Brooklyn, NY,
acts as the Fund's custodian for foreign assets held outside the United States
and employs subcustodians who were approved by the Directors of the Fund in
accordance with Rule 17f-5 adopted by the Commission under the 1940 Act.  Morgan
Stanley Trust Company is an affiliate of Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated.  In
the selection of foreign subcustodians, the Directors consider a number of
factors, including, but not limited to, the reliability and financial stability
of the institution, the ability of the institution to provide efficiently the
custodial services required for the Fund, and the reputation of the institution
in the particular country or region.


                      DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES AND RATINGS

I.  DESCRIPTION OF COMMERCIAL PAPER AND BOND RATINGS

     EXCERPTS FROM MOODY'S INVESTORS SERVICE, INC. ("MOODY'S") DESCRIPTION OF
BOND RATINGS:  Aaa - Bonds which are rated Aaa are judged to be the best
quality. They carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally
referred to as "gilt-edge." Interest payments are protected by a large or by an
exceptionally stable margin, and principal is secure.  While the various
protective elements are likely to change, such changes as can be visualized are
most unlikely to impair the fundamentally strong position of such issues.  Aa -
Bonds which are rated Aa are judged to be of high quality by all standards.
Together with the Aaa group they comprise what are generally known as high grade
bonds.  They are rated lower than the best bonds because margins of protection
may not be as large as in Aaa securities or fluctuation of protective elements
may be of greater amplitude or there may be other elements present which make
the long-term risks appear somewhat larger than in Aaa securities.  Moody's
applies numerical modifiers 1, 2 and 3 in the Aa and A rating categories.  The
modifier 1 indicates that the security ranks at a higher end of the rating
category, modifier 2 indicates a mid-range rating and the modifier 3 indicates
that the issue ranks at the lower end of the rating category.  A - Bonds which
are rated A possess many favorable investment attributes and are to be
considered as upper medium grade obligations.  Factors giving security to
principal and interest are considered adequate but elements may be present which
suggest a susceptibility to impairment sometime in the future.  Baa - Bonds
which are rated Baa are considered as medium grade obligations, i.e., they are
neither highly protected nor poorly secured. Interest payments and principal
security appear adequate for the present but certain protective elements may be
lacking or may be characteristically unreliable over any great length of time.
Such bonds lack outstanding investment characteristics and in fact have
speculative characteristics as well.  Ba - Bonds which are rated Ba are judged
to have speculative elements; their future cannot be considered as well assured.
Often the protection of interest and principal payments may be very moderate,
and


                                       37
<PAGE>

thereby not well safeguarded during both good and bad times over the future.
Uncertainty of position characterizes bonds in this class.  B - Bonds which are
rated B generally lack characteristics of the desirable investment.  Assurance
of interest and principal payments or of maintenance of other terms of the
contact over any long period of time may be small.  Caa - Bonds which are rated
Caa are of poor standing.  Such issues may be in default or there may be present
elements of danger with respect to principal or interest.  Ca - Bonds which are
rated Ca represent obligations which are speculative in a high degree.  Such
issues are often in default or have other marked shortcomings. C - Bonds which
are rated C are the lowest rated class of bonds, and issues so rated can be
regarded as having extremely poor prospects of ever attaining any real
investment standing.

     EXCERPTS FROM STANDARD & POOR'S CORPORATION (S&P") DESCRIPTION OF BOND
RATINGS: AAA - Bonds rated AAA have the highest rating assigned by Standard &
Poor's to a debt obligation and indicate an extremely strong capacity to pay
principal and interest.  AA - Bonds rated AA have a very strong capacity to pay
interest and repay principal and differ from the highest rated issues only to a
small degree.  A - Bonds rated A have a strong capacity to pay interest and
repay principal although they are somewhat more susceptible to the adverse
effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than bonds in higher
rated categories.  BBB - Debt rated BBB is regarded as having an adequate
capacity to pay interest and repay principal.  Whereas it normally exhibits
adequate protection parameters, adverse economic conditions or changing
circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay interest and
repay principal for debt in this category than for debt in higher rated
categories.  BB, B, CCC, CC - Debt rated BB, B, CCC and CC is regarded, on
balance, as predominantly speculative with respect to capacity to pay interest
and repay principal in accordance with the terms of the obligation.  BB
indicates the lowest degree of speculation and CC the highest degree of
speculation.  While such debt will likely have some quality and protective
characteristics, these are outweighed by large uncertainties or major risk
exposures to adverse conditions.  C - The rating C is reserved for income bonds
on which no interest is being paid.  D - Debt rated D is in default, and payment
of interest and/or repayment of principal is in arrears.

     DESCRIPTION OF MOODY'S RATINGS OF STATE AND MUNICIPAL NOTES:  Moody's
ratings for state and municipal notes and other short-term obligations are
designated Moody's Investment Grade ("MIG").  Symbols used are as follows:
MIG-1 -- best quality, enjoying strong protection from established cash flows
of funds for their servicing or from established broad-based access to the
market for refinancing, or both; MIG-2 -- high quality with margins of
protection ample although not so large as in the preceding group; MIG-3 -
favorable quality, with all security elements accounted for but lacking the
undeniable strength of the proceeding grades.

     DESCRIPTION OF MOODY'S HIGHEST COMMERCIAL PAPER RATING:  Prime-1 ("P1") --
Judged to be of the best quality.  Their short-term debt obligations carry the
smallest degree of investment risk.

     EXCERPT FROM S&P'S RATING OF MUNICIPAL NOTE ISSUES:  S-1+ -- very strong
capacity to pay principal and interest; SP-2 -- strong capacity to pay principal
and interest.

     DESCRIPTION OF S&P'S HIGHEST COMMERCIAL PAPER RATINGS:  A-1+ -- this
designation indicates the degree of safety regarding timely payment is
overwhelming.  A-1 -- this designation indicates the degree of safety regarding
timely payment is very strong.

II.  DESCRIPTION OF U.S. GOVERNMENT SECURITIES

     The term "U.S. Government securities" refers to a variety of securities
which are issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, and by various
instrumentalities which have been established or sponsored by the U.S.
Government.

     U.S. Treasury securities are backed by the "full faith and credit" of the
United States. Securities issued or guaranteed by Federal agencies and U.S.
Government sponsored instrumentalities may or may not be backed by the full
faith and credit of the United States.  In the case of securities not backed by
the full faith and credit of the United States, the investor must look
principally to the agency or instrumentality issuing or guaranteeing the
obligation for ultimate repayment, and may not be able to assert a claim against
the United States itself in the event the agency or instrumentality does not
meet its commitment. Agencies which are backed by the full faith and credit of
the United States include the Export-Import Bank, Farmers Home Administration,
Federal Financing Bank, and others.  Certain agencies and instrumentalities,
such as the Government National Mortgage Associates, are, in effect, backed by
the full faith and credit of the United States through provisions in their
charters that they may make "indefinite and unlimited" drawings on the Treasury,
if needed to service debt.  Debt from certain other agencies and
instrumentalities, including the Federal Home Loan Bank and Federal National
Mortgage Association, are not guaranteed by the United States, but those
institutions are protected by the discretionary authority for the U.S. Treasury
to purchase certain amounts of their securities to assist the institution in
meeting its debt obligations.  However, the U.S. Treasury has no lawful
obligation to assume the financial liabilities of these agencies or others.


                                       38
<PAGE>

Finally, other agencies and instrumentalities, such as the Farm Credit System
and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, are federally chartered
institutions under Government supervision, but their debt securities are backed
only by the creditworthiness of those institutions, not the U.S. Government.

     Some of the U.S. Government agencies that issue or guarantee securities
include the Export-Import Bank of the United States, Farmers Home
Administration, Federal Housing Administration, Maritime Administration, Small
Business Administration, and the Tennessee Valley Authority.

     An instrumentality of the U.S. Government is a Government agency organized
under Federal charter with Government supervision.  Instrumentalities issuing or
guaranteeing securities include, among others, Federal Home Loan Banks, the
Federal Land Banks, Central Bank for Cooperatives, Federal Immediate Credit
Banks, and the Federal National Mortgage Association.

III.  DESCRIPTION OF MUNICIPAL BONDS

     Municipal Bonds generally include debt obligations issued by states and
their political subdivisions, and duly constituted authorities and corporations,
to obtain funds to construct, repair or improve various public facilities such
as airports, bridges, highways, hospitals, housing, schools, streets and water
and sewer works.  Municipal Bonds may also be issued to refinance outstanding
obligations as well as to obtain funds for general operating expenses and for
loans to other public institutions and facilities.

     The two principal classifications of Municipal Bonds are "general
obligation" and "revenue" or "special tax" bonds.  General obligation bonds are
secured by the issuer's pledge of its full faith, credit and taxing power for
the payment of principal and interest.  Revenue or special tax bonds are payable
only from the revenues derived from a particular facility or class of facilities
or, in some cases, from the proceeds of a special excise or other tax, but not
from general tax revenues.  The Municipal Bond Portfolio and the Municipal Money
Market Portfolio may also invest in tax-exempt industrial development bonds,
short-term municipal obligations, project notes, demand notes and tax-exempt
commercial paper in accordance with the Portfolio's investment objectives and
policies.

     Industrial revenue bonds (i.e., private activity bonds) in most cases are
revenue bonds and generally do not have the pledge of the credit of the issuer.
The payment of the principal and interest on such industrial revenue bonds is
dependent solely on the ability of the user of the facilities financed by the
bonds to meet its financial obligations and the pledge, if any, of real and
personal property so financed as security for such payment.  Short-term
municipal obligations issued by states, cities, municipalities or municipal
agencies include Tax Anticipation Notes, Revenue Anticipation Notes, Bond
Anticipation Notes, Construction Loan Notes and Short-Term Discount Notes.
Project Notes are instruments guaranteed by the Department of Housing and Urban
Development but issued by a state or local housing agency.  While the issuing
agency has the primary obligation on such Project notes, they are also secured
by the full faith and credit of the United States.

     Note obligations with demand or put options may have a stated maturity in
excess of one year, but allow any holder to demand payment of principal plus
accrued interest upon a specified number of days' notice.  Frequently, such
obligations are secured by letters of credit or other credit support
arrangements provided by banks.  The issuer of such notes normally has a
corresponding right, after a given period, to repay in its discretion the
outstanding principal of the notes plus accrued interest upon a specific number
of days' notice to the bondholders.  The interest rate on a demand note may be
based upon a known lending rate, such as a bank's prime rate, and be adjusted
when such rate changes, or the interest rate on a demand note may be a market
rate that is adjusted at specified intervals.  The demand notes in which the
Municipal Money Market Portfolio will invest are payable on not more than one
year's notice.

     The yields of Municipal Bonds depend on, among other things, general money
market conditions, conditions in the Municipal Bond market, the size of a
particular offering, the maturity of the obligation, and the rating of the
issue.  The ratings of Moody's and S&P represent their opinions of the quality
of the Municipal Bonds.  It should be emphasized that such ratings are general
and are not absolute standards of quality.  Consequently, Municipal Bonds with
the same maturity, coupon and rating may have different yields, while Municipal
Bonds of the same maturity and coupon, but with different ratings, may have the
same yield.  It will be the responsibility of the Adviser to appraise
independently the fundamental quality of the bonds held by the Municipal Bond
Portfolio and the Municipal Money Market Portfolio.

     Municipal Bonds are sometimes purchased on a "when issued" basis meaning
the buyer has committed to purchasing certain specified securities at an
agreed-upon price when they are issued.  The period between commitment date and
issuance date can be a month or more.  It is possible that the securities will
never be issued and the commitment canceled.


                                       39
<PAGE>

     From time to time proposals have been introduced before Congress to
restrict or eliminate the Federal income tax exemption for interest on Municipal
Bonds.  Similar proposals may be introduced in the future.  If any such proposal
were enacted, it might restrict or eliminate the ability of either the Municipal
Bond portfolio or the Municipal Money Market Portfolio to achieve its investment
objective.  In that event, the Fund's Directors and officers would reevaluate
its investment objective and policies and consider recommending to its
shareholders changes in such objective and policies.

     Similarly, from time to time proposals have been introduced before State
and local legislatures to restrict or eliminate the State and local income tax
exemption (to the extent such an exemption applies, which may not apply in all
cases) for interest on Municipal Bonds.  Similar proposals may be introduced in
the future.  If any such proposal were enacted, it might restrict or eliminate
the ability of either of the Municipal Bond Portfolio or the Municipal Money
Market Portfolio to achieve its investment objective.  In that event, the Fund's
Directors and officers would reevaluate the Portfolio's investment objective and
policies and consider recommending to its shareholders changes in such objective
and policies.

IV.  DESCRIPTION OF MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES

     "Mortgage-Backed Securities" are securities that, directly or indirectly,
represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans
on real property.  Mortgage-backed securities include collateralized mortgage
obligations ("CMOs"), pass-through securities issued or guaranteed by agencies
or instrumentalities of the U.S. government or by private sector entities.

     COLLATERALIZED MORTGAGE OBLIGATIONS.  Collateralized mortgage obligations
("CMOs") are debt obligations or multiclass pass-through certificates issued by
agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government or by private originators
or investors in mortgage loans.  They are backed by Mortgage Pass-Through
Securities (discussed below) or whole loans (all such assets, the "Mortgage
Assets") and are evidenced by a series of bonds or certificates issued in
multiple classes or "tranches."  The principal and interest on the underlying
Mortgage Assets may be allocated among the several classes of a series of CMOs
in many ways.

     CMOs may be issued by agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government,
or by private originators of, or investors in, mortgage loans, including savings
and loan associations, mortgage bankers, commercial banks, investment banks and
special purpose subsidiaries of the foregoing.  CMOs that are issued by private
sector entities and are backed by assets lacking a guarantee of an entity having
the credit status of a governmental agency or instrumentality are generally
structured with one or more types of credit enhancement as described below.  An
issuer of CMOs may elect to be treated, for federal income tax purposes, as a
Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit (a "REMIC").  An issuer of CMOs issued
after 1991 must elect to be treated as a REMIC or it will be taxable as a
corporation under rules regarding taxable mortgage pools.

     In a CMO, a series of bonds or certificates are issued in multiple classes.
Each class of CMOs, often referred to as a "tranche," may be issued with a
specific fixed or floating coupon rate and has a stated maturity or final
scheduled distribution date.  Principal prepayments on the underlying Mortgage
Assets may cause the CMOs to be retired substantially earlier than their stated
maturities or final scheduled distribution dates.  Interest is paid or accrues
on CMOs on a monthly, quarterly or semi-annual basis.  The principal of and
interest on the Mortgage Assets may be allocated among the several classes of a
CMO in many ways.  The general goal in allocating cash flows on Mortgage Assets
to the various classes of a CMO is to create certain tranches on which the
expected cash flows have a higher degree of predictability than the underlying
Mortgage Assets.  As a general matter, the more predictable the cash flow is on
a particular CMO tranche, the lower the anticipated yield will be on that
tranche at the time of issuance relative to prevailing market yields on Assets.
As part of the process of creating more predictable cash flows on certain
tranches of a CMO, one or more tranches generally must be created that absorb
most of the changes in the cash flows on the underlying Mortgage Assets.  The
yields on these tranches are generally higher than prevailing market yields on
Mortgage-Backed Securities with similar average lives.  Because of the
uncertainty of the cash flows on these tranches, the market prices of and yields
on these tranches are more volatile.

     Included within the category of CMOs are PAC Bonds.  PAC Bonds are a type
of CMO tranche or series designed to provide relatively predictable payments of
principal provided that, among other things, the actual prepayment experience on
the underlying mortgage loans falls within a predefined range.  If the actual
prepayment experience on the underlying mortgage loans is at a rate faster or
slower than the predefined range or if deviations from other assumptions occur,
principal payments on the PAC Bond may be earlier or later than predicted.  The
magnitude of the predefined range varies from one PAC Bond to another; a
narrower range increases the risk that prepayments on the PAC Bond will be
greater or smaller than predicted.  Because of these features, PAC Bonds
generally are less subject to the risks of prepayment than are other types of
mortgage-backed securities.


                                       40
<PAGE>

      MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH SECURITIES.  Mortgage pass-through securities in
which the Mortgage-Backed Securities Portfolio may invest include pass-through
securities issued or guaranteed by agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S.
government or by private sector entities.  Mortgage pass-through securities
issued or guaranteed by private sector originators of or investors in mortgage
loans and are structured similarly to governmental pass-through securities.
Because private pass-throughs typically lack a guarantee by an entity having the
credit status of a governmental agency or instrumentality, they are generally
structured with one or more types of credit enhancement described below.  FNMA
and FHLMC obligations are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S.
government as GNMA certificates are, but FNMA and FHLMC securities are supported
by the instrumentalities' right to borrow from the United States Treasury.  Each
of GNMA, GNMA and FHLMC guarantees timely distributions of interest to
certificate holders.  Each of GNMA and FNMA also guarantees timely distributions
of scheduled principal.  FHLMC has in the past guaranteed only the ultimate
collection of principal of the underlying mortgage loan; however, FHLMC now
issued Mortgage-Backed Securities (FHLMC Gold Pcs) which also guarantee timely
payment of monthly principal reductions.  REFCORP obligations are backed, as to
principal payments, by zero coupon U.S. Treasury bonds, and as to interest
payment, ultimately by the U.S. Treasury.  Obligations issued by such U.S.
governmental agencies and instrumentalities are described more fully below.

     GINNIE MAE CERTIFICATES.  Ginnie Mae is a wholly-owned corporate
instrumentality of the United States within the Department of Housing and Urban
Development.  The National Housing Act of 1934, as amended (the "Housing Act"),
authorizes Ginnie Mae to guarantee the timely payment of the principal of and
interest on certificates that are based on and backed by a pool of mortgage
loans insured by the Federal Housing Administration under the Housing Act, or
Title V of the Housing Act of 1949 ("FHA Loans"), or guaranteed by the
Department of Veterans Affairs under the Servicemen's Readjustment Act of 1944,
as amended ("VA Loans"), or by pools of other eligible mortgage loans.  The
Housing Act provides that the full faith and credit of the United States
government is pledged to the payment of all amounts that may be required to be
paid under any guaranty.  In order to meet its obligations under such guaranty,
Ginnie Mae is authorized to borrow from the United States Treasury with no
limitations as to amount.

     Each Ginnie Mae Certificate will represent a pro rata interest in one or
more of the following types of mortgage loans: (i) fixed rate level payment
mortgage loans; (ii) fixed rate graduated payment mortgage loans; (iii) fixed
rate growing equity mortgage loans; (iv) fixed rate mortgage loans secured by
manufactured (mobile) homes; (v) mortgage loans on multi-family residential
properties under construction; (vi) mortgage loans on completed multi-family
projects; (vii) fixed rate mortgage loans as to which escrowed funds are used to
reduce the borrower's monthly payments during the early years of the mortgage
loans ("buydown" mortgage loans); (viii) mortgage loans that provide for
adjustments in payments based on periodical changes in interest rates or in
other payment terms of the mortgage loans; and (ix) mortgage-backed serial
notes.  All of these mortgage loans will be FHA Loans or VA Loans and, except as
otherwise specified above, will be fully-amortizing loans secured by first liens
on one- to four-family housing units.

     FANNIE MAE CERTIFICATES.  Fannie Mae is a federally chartered and privately
owned corporation organized and existing under the Federal National Mortgage
Association Charter Act of 1938.  The obligations of Fannie Mae are not backed
by the full faith and credit of the United States government.

     Each Fannie Mae Certificate will represent a pro rata interest in one or
more pools of FHA Loans, VA Loans or conventional mortgage loans (i.e., mortgage
loans that are not insured or guaranteed by any governmental agency) of the
following types: (i) fixed rate level payment mortgage loans; (ii) fixed rate
growing equity mortgage loans; (iii) fixed rate graduated payment mortgage
loans; (iv) variable rate California mortgage loans; (v) other adjustable rate
mortgage loans; and (vi) fixed rate and adjustable mortgage loans secured by
multi-family projects.

     FREDDIE MAC CERTIFICATES.  Freddie Mac is a corporate instrumentality of
the United States created pursuant to the Emergency Home Finance Act of 1970, as
amended (the "FHLMC Act").  The obligations of Freddie Mac are obligations
solely of Freddie Mac and are not backed by the full faith and credit of the
U.S. government.

     Freddie Mac Certificates represent a pro rata interest in a group of
mortgage loans (a "Freddie Mac Certificate group") purchased by Freddie Mac.
The mortgage loans underlying the Freddie Mac Certificates will consist of fixed
rate or adjustable rate mortgage loans with original terms to maturity of
between ten and thirty years, substantially all of which are secured by first
liens on one- to four-family residential properties or multi-family projects.
Each mortgage loan must meet the applicable standards set forth in the FHLMC
Act.  A Freddie Mac Certificate group may include whole loans, participation
interests in whole loans and undivided interests in whole loans and
participations comprising another Freddie Mac Certificate group.

     CREDIT ENHANCEMENT.  Mortgage-backed securities are often backed by a pool
of assets representing the obligations of a number of different parties.  To
lessen the effect of failure by obligors on underlying assets to make payments,
such securities may contain


                                       41
<PAGE>

elements of credit support.  Such credit support falls into two categories: (i)
liquidity protection and (ii) protection against losses resulting from ultimate
default by an obligor on the underlying assets.  Liquidity protection generally
refers to the provision of advances, typically by the entity administering the
pool of assets, to ensure that the pass-through of payments due on the
underlying pool occurs in a timely fashion.  Protection against losses resulting
from ultimate default enhances the likelihood of ultimate payment of the
obligations on at least a portion of the assets in the pool.  Such protection
may be provided through guarantees, insurance policies or letters of credit
obtained by the issuer or sponsor from third parties (referred to herein as
"third party credit support), through various means of structuring the
transaction or through a combination of such approaches.  The Mortgage-Backed
Securities Portfolio will not pay any additional fees for such credit support,
although the existence of credit support may increase the price the Portfolio
pays for a security.

     The ratings of mortgage-backed securities for which third-party credit
enhancement provides liquidity protection or protection against losses from
default are generally dependent upon the continued creditworthiness of the
provider of the credit enhancement.  The ratings of such securities could be
subject to reduction in the event of deterioration in the creditworthiness of
the credit enhancement provider even in cases where the delinquency and loss
experience on the underlying pool of assets is better than expected.

     Examples of credit support arising out of the structure of the transaction
include "senior-subordinated securities" (multiple class securities with one or
more classes subordinate to other classes as to the payment of principal thereof
and interest thereon, with defaults on the underlying assets being borne first
by the holders of the most subordinated class), creation of "reserve funds"
(where cash or investments, sometimes funded from a portion of the payments on
the underlying assets, are held in reserve against future losses) and
"over-collateralization" (where the scheduled payments on, or the principal
amount of, the underlying assets exceed those required to make payment of the
securities and pay any servicing or other fees).  The degree of credit support
provided for each security is generally based on historical information with
respect to the level of credit risk associated with the underlying assets.
Delinquency or loss in excess of that which is anticipated could adversely
affect the return on an investment in such a security.

V.  FOREIGN INVESTMENTS

     The Active Country Allocation, International Equity, International Fixed
Income, Global Equity, Global Fixed Income, Asian Equity, European Equity,
Japanese Equity, International Small Cap, Latin American and China Growth
Portfolios will invest, and the Emerging Growth, Emerging Markets, Emerging
Markets Debt, Value Equity, Equity Growth, Balanced, Small Cap Value Equity,
Fixed Income, High Yield and Gold Portfolios may invest, in securities of
foreign issuers.  Investors should recognize that investing in such foreign
securities involves certain special considerations which are not typically
associated with investing in U.S. issuers. For a description of the effect on
the Portfolios of currency exchange rate fluctuation, see "Investment Objectives
and Policies -- Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts" above.  As foreign
issuers are not generally subject to uniform accounting, auditing and financial
reporting standards and may have policies that are not comparable to those of
domestic issuers, there may be less information available about certain foreign
companies than about domestic issuers.  Securities of some foreign issuers are
generally less liquid and more volatile than securities of comparable domestic
issuers.  There is generally less government supervision and regulation of stock
exchanges, brokers and listed issuers than in the U.S.  In addition, with
respect to certain foreign countries, there is the possibility of expropriation
or confiscatory taxation, political or social instability, or diplomatic
developments which could affect U.S. investments in those countries.  Foreign
securities not listed on a recognized domestic or foreign exchange are regarded
as not readily marketable and therefore such investments will be limited to 15%
of a Portfolio's net asset value at the time of purchase.

     Although the Portfolios will endeavor to achieve the most favorable
execution costs in their portfolio transactions, fixed commissions on many
foreign stock exchanges are generally higher than negotiated commissions on U.S.
exchanges.

     Certain foreign governments levy withholding or other taxes on dividend and
interest income.  Although in some countries a portion of these taxes are
recoverable, the non-recovered portion of foreign withholding taxes will reduce
the income received from investments in such countries.  Except in the case of
the International Equity, Global Equity, European Equity, Japanese Equity, Asian
Equity, Global Fixed Income, International Fixed Income, International Small
Cap, Latin American and China Growth Portfolios, it is not expected that a
Portfolio or its shareholders would be able to claim a credit for U.S. tax
purposes with respect to any such foreign taxes.  However, these foreign
withholding taxes may not have a significant impact on such Portfolios, because
each Portfolio's investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation
and any dividend or interest income should be considered incidental.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1994
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Morgan Stanley Institutional Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company. As of
December 31, 1994 the Fund was comprised of 20 separate active, diversified
and non-diversified portfolios (each referred to as the "Portfolio"). During
the year ended December 31, 1994, the Fund commenced operations of the Gold
and Emerging Markets Debt Portfolios on February 1, 1994, and the Japanese
Equity Portfolio on April 25, 1994, respectively. Additionally, effective
August 19, 1994, the Fund ceased offering shares of the Real Yield Portfolio.

A. The following significant accounting policies are in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies. Such
policies are consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of the
financial statements.

1. SECURITY VALUATION: Equity securities listed on an exchange and equity
securities traded on NASDAQ are valued at the latest quoted sales price.
Securities listed on a foreign exchange are valued at their closing price.
Unlisted securities and listed securities not traded on the valuation date
for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the mean
between the current bid and asked prices obtained from reputable brokers.
Bonds and other fixed income securities may be valued according to the
broadest and most representative market. In addition, bonds and other fixed
income securities may be valued on the basis of prices provided by a pricing
service which are based primarily on institutional size trading in similar
groups of securities. Debt securities purchased with remaining maturities of
60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, if it approximates market
value. Money market and municipal money market securities are stated at
amortized cost, which approximates market value. All other securities and
assets for which market values are not readily available, including
restricted securities, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith
by the Board of Directors, although the actual calculations may be done by
others.

2. INCOME TAXES: It is each Portfolio's intention to qualify as a regulated
investment company and distribute all of its taxable and tax-exempt income.
Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes is required in the
financial statements.

Each Portfolio may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which it
invests. Such taxes are generally based on either income or gains earned or
repatriated. The Portfolio accrues such taxes when the related income is
earned. For investments in Indian securities a capital gains tax is accrued
based on the relative amounts of net realized gains and net unrealized
appreciation of such securities. Effective January 1, 1994 the Brazilian
Government announced a 0.25% tax on banking transaction debits (withdrawals).
This tax was subsequently repealed on January 1, 1995. The Brazilian
government also assesses a 1% tax on all settlements of foreign currency used
to purchase listed equity securities.

Paid in capital, undistributed net investment income (loss) and accumulated
gain (loss) are adjusted for permanent book tax differences.

3. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS: In connection with transactions in repurchase
agreements, a bank as custodian for the Fund takes possession of the
underlying securities, the value of which exceeds the principal amount of the
repurchase transaction, including accrued interest. To the extent that any
repurchase transaction exceeds one business day, the value of the collateral
is marked-to-market on a daily basis to determine the adequacy of the
collateral. In the event of default on the obligation to repurchase, the Fund
has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in
satisfaction of the obligation. In the event of default or bankruptcy by the
counter-party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the
collateral or proceeds may be subject to legal proceedings.

4. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION AND FOREIGN INVESTMENTS: The books and
records of the Fund are maintained in United States dollars. Foreign currency
amounts are translated into US dollars at the mean of the bid and asked
prices of such currencies against US dollars last quoted by a major US or
foreign bank. Although the net assets of the Fund are presented at the
foreign exchange rates and market values at the close of the period, the Fund
does not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising as a
result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising
from changes in the market prices of the securities held at period end.
Similarly, the Fund does not isolate the effect of changes in foreign
exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market
prices of securities sold during the period. Accordingly, realized and
unrealized foreign currency gains (losses) are included in the reported net
realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investment transactions and
balances. However, pursuant to US Federal income tax regulations, gains and
losses from certain foreign currency transactions are treated as ordinary
income for US Federal income tax purposes.


Net realized gains (losses) on foreign currency transactions represent net
foreign exchange gains (losses) from forward foreign currency contracts,
disposition of

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT.)

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between
the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference
between the amount of investment income and foreign withholding taxes
recorded on the Fund's books and the US dollar equivalent amounts actually
received or paid and certain currency related amounts of realized gains or
losses from the sale of foreign denominated debt securities.

Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations
and risks not typically associated with those of US dollar denominated
transactions as a result of, among other factors, the possibility of lower
levels of governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities
markets and the possibility of political or economic instability.

5. FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS: Each Portfolio, except the Money
Market Portfolio and Municipal Money Market Portfolio, may enter into forward
currency contracts to attempt to protect securities and related receivables
and payables against changes in future foreign exchange rates. A forward
currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell currency
at a set price on a future date. The market value of the contract will
fluctuate with changes in currency exchange rates. The contract is
marked-to-market daily using the forward rate and the change in market value
is recorded by the Fund as unrealized gain or loss. The Fund records realized
gains or losses when the contract is closed equal to the difference between
the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time
it was closed. Risk may arise upon entering into these contracts from the
potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts
and is generally limited to the amount of the unrealized gain on the
contracts (if any) at the date of default. Risks may also arise from
unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the US
dollar.

6. FORWARD COMMITMENTS AND WHEN-ISSUED/DELAYED DELIVERY SECURITIES: Each
Portfolio may make forward commitments to purchase or sell securities.
Payment and delivery for securities which have been purchased or sold on a
forward commitment basis can take place a month or more (not to exceed 120
days) after the date of the transaction. Additionally, certain portfolios may
purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. Securities
purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are purchased for
delivery beyond the normal settlement date at a stated price and yield, and
no income accrues to the Portfolio on such securities prior to delivery. When
the Portfolio enters into a purchase transaction on a when-issued or delayed
delivery basis, it establishes a segregated account in which it maintains
liquid assets in an amount at least equal in value to the Portfolio's
commitments to purchase such securities. Purchasing securities on a forward
commitment or when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may involve a risk that
the market price at the time of delivery may be lower than the agreed-upon
purchase price, in which case there could be an unrealized loss at the time
of delivery.

At December 31, 1994, the Republic of Ecuador was in the process of
restructuring its loans under its Brady Plan debt restructuring. As a result,
the Emerging Markets Debt Portfolio has recorded the value of the underlying
loan participations based on the amount of Brady Bonds the Adviser has
estimated the Portfolio will receive and the market value of such Brady Bonds
trading on a "when-issued" basis at December 31, 1994. A portion of the
"when-issued" Brady Bonds expected to be received as a result of the
restructuring have been sold on a delayed delivery basis and are noted on the
portfolio of investments.

7. LOAN AGREEMENTS: The Emerging Markets, Emerging Markets Debt and High
Yield Portfolios may invest in fixed and floating rate loans ("Loans")
arranged through private negotiations between an issuer of sovereign debt
obligations and one or more financial institutions ("Lenders") deemed to be
creditworthy by the investment adviser. The Portfolio's investments in Loans
may be in the form of participations in Loans ("Participations") or
assignments of all or a portion of Loans ("Assignments") from third parties.
The Portfolio's investment in Participations typically results in the
Portfolio having a contractual relationship with only the Lender and not with
the borrower. The Portfolio has the right to receive payments of principal,
interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the Lender selling
the Participation and only upon receipt by the Lender of the payments from
the borrower. The Portfolio generally has no right to enforce compliance by
the borrower with the terms of the loan agreement. As a result, the Portfolio
may be subject to the credit risk of both the borrower and the Lender that is
selling the Participation. When the Portfolio purchases Assignments from
Lenders, it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the Loan. Because
Assignments are arranged through private negotiations between potential
assignees and potential assignors, the rights and obligations acquired by the
Portfolio as the purchaser of an Assignment may differ from, and be more
limited than, those held by the assigning Lender.

8. SHORT SALES: The Emerging Markets Debt Portfolio may sell securities
short. A short sale is a transaction in which the Portfolio sells securities
it does not own,

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
but has borrowed, in anticipation of a decline in the market
price of the securities. The Portfolio is obligated to replace the borrowed
securities at the market price at the time of replacement. The Portfolio may
have to pay a premium to borrow the securities as well as pay any dividends
or interest payable on the securities until they are replaced. The
Portfolio's obligation to replace the securities borrowed in connection with
a short sale will generally be secured by collateral deposited with the
broker that consists of cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid,
high grade debt obligations. In addition, the Portfolio will place in a
segregated account with its Custodian an amount of cash, U.S. government
securities or other liquid high grade debt obligations equal to the
difference, if any, between (1) the market value of the securities sold at
the time they were sold short and (2) any cash, U.S. government securities or
other liquid high grade debt obligations deposited as collateral with the
broker in connection with the short sale (not including the proceeds of the
short sale). Short sales by the Portfolio involve certain risks and special
considerations. Possible losses from short sales differ from losses that
could be incurred from a purchase of a security, because losses from short
sales may be unlimited, whereas losses from purchases cannot exceed the total
amount invested.

9. PURCHASED AND WRITTEN OPTIONS: The Active Country Allocation, Gold, Equity
Growth and Emerging Markets Debt Portfolios may write covered call options.
Premiums are received and are recorded as liabilities, and subsequently
adjusted to the current value of the options written. Premiums received from
writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received
from writing options which are exercised or are canceled in closing purchase
transactions are offset against the proceeds or amount paid on the
transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. By writing a call option,
each Portfolio foregoes in exchange for the premium the opportunity for
capital appreciation above the exercise price should the market price of the
underlying security increase. Possible losses from written options may be
unlimited.

The Active Country Allocation, Gold, and Equity Growth Portfolios may also
purchase call options on their portfolio securities. Each portfolio may
purchase call options to close out covered call positions or to protect
against an increase in the price of the security it anticipates purchasing.
Possible losses from purchased options cannot exceed the total amount
invested.

10. OTHER: Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities
are purchased or sold. Costs used in determining realized gains and losses on
the sale of investment securities are those of specific securities sold.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is
recognized on the accrual basis except where collection is in doubt.
Discounts and premiums on securities purchased (other than mortgage-backed
securities) are amortized according to the effective yield method over their
respective lives. Most expenses of the Fund can be directly attributed to a
particular Portfolio. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are
apportioned among the Portfolios based upon relative net assets. Dividends
from the Money Market and the Municipal Money Market Portfolios are accrued
daily and are distributed on or about the 15th of each month. Distributions
from the remaining Portfolios are recorded on the ex-date.

Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in
accordance with tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to differing
treatments for mortgage-backed securities, foreign currency transactions, net
operating losses, deferral of wash sales and post October losses and
realization of gains and losses on certain investments including forward
foreign currency contracts, options and futures contracts.

Prior governmental approval for foreign investments may be required under
certain circumstances in some emerging countries, and the extent of foreign
investment in domestic companies may be subject to limitation in other
emerging countries. Foreign ownership limitations also may be imposed by the
charters of individual companies in emerging countries to prevent, among
other concerns, violation of foreign investment limitations. As a result, an
additional class of shares (identified as "Foreign" in the Statement of Net
Assets) may be created and offered for investment. The "local" and "foreign"
shares' market values may differ.

A transaction fee of one percent is charged on subscriptions and redemptions
of capital shares of the International Small Cap Portfolio. Such fees are
paid to or retained by the Portfolio and included in paid in capital. During
the year ended December 31, 1994, such transaction fees totaled approximately
$1,463,000.

B. Morgan Stanley Asset Management Inc. ("MSAM") provides the Fund with
investment advisory services at a fee calculated at the annual rates of
average daily net assets indicated below. MSAM has agreed to reduce fees
payable to it and to reimburse the Portfolios, if

To the extent that capital loss carryovers are used to offset any future net
capital gains realized during the carryover period as provided by Federal
income tax regulations, no capital gains tax liability will be incurred by a
Portfolio for gains realized and not distributed. It is unlikely that the
gains so offset would be distributed to shareholders because such
distributions may be taxable to Portfolio shareholders as ordinary income.

Net capital and net currency losses incurred after October 31 and within the
taxable year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the Portfolio's
next taxable year. For the period from November 1, 1994 to December 31, 1994
the Portfolio's incurred and elected to defer to January 1, 1995 for Federal
income tax purposes net capital and net currency losses of approximately:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Morgan Stanley Institutional 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 the Active Country Allocation Portfolio, Asian Equity Portfolio, Emerging
Markets Portfolio, European Equity Portfolio, Global Equity Portfolio, Gold
Portfolio, International Equity Portfolio, International Small Cap Portfolio,
Japanese Equity Portfolio, Emerging Growth Portfolio, Equity Growth
Portfolio, Small Cap Value Equity Portfolio, Value Equity Portfolio, Balanced
Portfolio, Emerging Markets Debt Portfolio, Fixed Income Portfolio, Global
Fixed Income Portfolio, High Yield Portfolio, Money Market Portfolio and
Municipal Money Market Portfolio (constituting the Morgan Stanley
Institutional Fund, Inc., hereafter referred to as the "Fund") at December
31, 1994, and the results of each of their operations, the changes in each of
their net assets and the financial highlights for the periods indicated, 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 December 31, 1994, by correspondence with the
custodians and brokers and the application of alternative auditing procedures
where confirmations from brokers were not received, provide a reasonable
basis for the opinion expressed above.

                         MORGAN STANLEY INSTITUTIONAL FUND, INC.
                        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
                                 JUNE 30, 1995

   Morgan Stanley Institutional Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management
investment company which offers redeemable shares of twenty-four diversified
and non-diversified investment portfolios. These notes pertain only to the
unaudited financial statements dated June 30, 1995 for one such investment
portfolio, the Aggressive Equity Portfolio (the "Portfolio").

A.   The following significant accounting policies are in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies.  Such
policies are consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of the
financial statements.

1.   SECURITY VALUATION: Equity securities listed on an exchange and equity
securities traded on NASDAQ are valued at the latest quoted sales price.
Unlisted securities and listed securities not traded on the valuation date
for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the mean
between the current bid and asked prices obtained from reputable brokers.
Bonds and other fixed income securities are valued according to the broadest
and most representative market.  In addition, bonds and other fixed income
securities may be valued on the basis of prices provided by a pricing service
which are based primarily on institutional size trading in similar groups of
securities.  Securities purchased with remaining maturities of 60 days or
less are valued at amortized cost, if it approximates market value. Money
market securities are stated at amortized cost, which approximates market
value. All other securities and assets for which market values are not
readily available, including restricted securities, are valued at fair value
as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, although the actual
calculations may be done by others.

2.   INCOME TAXES:  It is the Portfolio's intention to qualify as a regulated
investment company and distribute all of its taxable income.  Accordingly, no
provision for Federal income taxes is required in the financial statements.

3.   REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS:  In connection with transactions in repurchase
agreements, a bank as a custodian for the Portfolio takes possession of the
underlying securities, the value of which is at least equal to the principal
amount of the repurchase transaction, including accrued interest.  To the
extent that any repurchase transaction exceeds one business day, the value of
the collateral is marked-to-market on a daily basis to determine the adequacy
of the collateral. In the event of default on the obligation to repurchase,
the Portfolio has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the
proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation.  In the event of default or
bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention
of the collateral or proceeds may be subject to legal proceedings.




                                    133

4.   FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION AND FOREIGN INVESTMENTS:  The books and
records of the Portfolio are maintained in United States dollars.  Foreign
currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars at the bid prices of such
currencies against U.S. dollars last quoted by a major U.S. or foreign bank.
Although the net assets of the Portfolio are presented at the foreign
exchange rates and market values at the close of the period, the Portfolio
does not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising as a
result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising
from changes in the market prices of the securities held at period end.
Similarly the Portfolio does not isolate the effect of changes in foreign
exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market
prices of securities sold during the period.  Accordingly, realized and
unrealized foreign currency gains (losses) are included in the reported net
realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investment transactions and
balances.  However, pursuant to U.S. Federal income tax regulations, gains
and losses from certain foreign currency transactions are treated as ordinary
income for U.S. Federal income tax purposes.

   Net realized gains (losses) on foreign currency transactions represent net
foreign exchange gains (losses) from forward foreign currency contracts,
disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between
the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the difference
between the amount of investment income and foreign withholding taxes
recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amount actually
received or paid, and certain currency related amounts of realized gains or
losses from the sale of foreign denominated debt securities.

   Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain
considerations and risks not typically associated with those of U.S. dollar
denominated transactions as a result of, among other factors, the possibly
lower level of governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities
markets and the possibility of political or economic instability.

5.   FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE CONTRACTS:  The Portfolio may enter into
forward foreign currency contracts to attempt to protect securities and
related receivables and payables against changes in future foreign exchange
rates.  A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to
buy or sell currency at a set price on a future date.  The market value of
the contract will fluctuate with changes in currency exchange rates.  The
contract is marked-to-market daily using the forward rate and the change in
market value is recorded by the Portfolio as unrealized gain or loss.  The
Portfolio records realized gains or losses when the contract is closed equal
to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened
and the value at the time it was closed.  Risks may arise upon entering into
these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the
terms of their contracts and is generally limited to the amount of the
unrealized gain on the contracts (if any) at the date of default. Risks may
arise from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency
relative to the U.S. dollar.

6.   FORWARD COMMITMENTS AND WHEN-ISSUED/DELAYED DELIVERY SECURITIES:  The
Portfolio may make forward commitments to purchase or sell securities.
Payment and delivery



                                    134


<PAGE>


for securities which have been purchased or sold on a forward
commitment basis can take place a month or more (not to exceed 120 days)
after the date of the transaction. Additionally, the Portfolio may purchase
securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. Securities purchased
on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are purchased for delivery beyond
the normal settlement date at a stated price and yield, and no income accrues
to the Portfolio on such securities prior to delivery. When the Portfolio
enters into a purchase transaction on a when-issued or delayed delivery
basis, it establishes a segregated account in which it maintains liquid
assets in an amount at least equal in value to the Portfolio's commitments to
purchase such securities. Purchasing securities on a forward commitment or
when-issued or delayed delivery basis may involve a risk that the market
price at the time of delivery may be lower than the agreed-upon purchase
price, in which case there could be an unrealized loss at the time of
delivery.

7.   PURCHASED AND WRITTEN OPTIONS:  The Portfolio may write covered call
options. Premiums are received and are recorded as liabilities, and
subsequently adjusted to the current value of the options written. Premiums
received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains.
Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or canceled in
closing purchase transactions are offset against the proceeds or amount paid
on the transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. By writing a call
option, the Portfolio foregoes in exchange for the premium the opportunity
for capital appreciation above the exercise price should the market price of
the underlying security increase. Possible losses from written options may be
unlimited.

The Portfolio may also purchase call options on it's portfolio securities.
The Portfolio may purchase call options to close out covered call positions
or to protect against an increase in the price of the security it anticipates
purchasing. Possible losses from purchased options cannot exceed the total
amount invested.

8.   OTHER:  Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities
are purchased or sold.  Costs used in determining realized gains and losses
on the sale of investment securities are those of specific securities sold.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.  Interest income is
recognized on the accrual basis except where collection is in doubt.
Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are amortized according to the
effective yield method over their respective lives.  Distributions are
recorded on the ex-distribution date. Most expenses of the Fund can be
directly attributed to a particular Portfolio.  Expenses which cannot be
directly attributed are apportioned among the Portfolios based upon relative
net assets.

Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in
accordance with tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles.

B.   Morgan Stanley Asset Management Inc. ("MSAM") provides the Portfolio with
investment advisory services at a fee calculated at the annual rate of
average daily net assets indicated below.  MSAM has agreed to reduce fees
payable to it and to reimburse the

C.   MSAM also provides the Portfolio with administrative services pursuant to
an Administrative Agreement for a monthly fee which on an annual basis equals
0.15% of the average daily net assets of each Portfolio plus reimbursement of
out-of-pocket expenses.  Under an agreement between MSAM and U.S. Trust
Company of New York ("U.S. Trust"), Mutual Funds Service Company ("MFSC"), a
subsidiary of U.S. Trust, provides certain administrative services to the
Fund.  For such services, MSAM pays U.S. Trust a portion of the fee MSAM
receives from the Fund.

D.   CUSTODIANS:  Morgan Stanley Trust Company ("MSTC") acts as custodian for
the Portfolio's assets held outside the United States in accordance with a
Custodian Agreement.  U.S. Trust acts as custodian for the Fund's domestic

                   MORGAN STANLEY INSTITUTIONAL FUND, INC.
                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
                               June 30, 1995

Morgan Stanley Institutional Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management
investment company which offers redeemable shares of twenty-four diversified
and non-diversified investment portfolios. These notes pertain only to the
unaudited financial statements dated June 30, 1995 for one such investment
portfolio, the Latin American Portfolio (the "Portfolio").

A.  The following significant accounting policies are in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies.  Such
policies are consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of the
financial statements.

1.  SECURITY VALUATION:  Equity securities listed on an exchange and equity
securities traded on NASDAQ are valued at the latest quoted sales price.
Securities listed on a foreign exchange are valued at their closing price.
Unlisted securities and listed securities not traded on the valuation date
for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the mean
between the current bid and asked prices obtained from reputable brokers.
Bonds and other fixed income securities are valued according to the broadest
and most representative market.  In addition, bonds and other fixed income
securities may be valued on the basis of prices provided by a pricing service
which are based primarily on institutional size trading in similar groups of
securities.  Securities not priced in this manner are valued at the most
recently quoted bid price, or, when securities exchange valuations are used,
at the latest quoted sale price on the day of valuation.  If there is no such
reported sale, the latest quoted bid price will be used.  Securities
purchased with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at
amortized cost, if it approximates market value.  Money market and municipal
money market securities are stated at amortized cost, which approximates
market value.  All other securities and assets for which market values are
not readily available, including restricted securities, are valued at fair
value as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, although the
actual calculations may be done by others.

2.  INCOME TAXES:  It is the Portfolio's intention to qualify as a regulated
investment company and distribute all of its taxable income.  Accordingly, no
provision for Federal income taxes is required in the financial statements.
The Portfolio may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which it
invests.  Such taxes are generally based on either income earned or
repatriated.  The Portfolio accrues such taxes when the related income is
earned.

The Brazilian government assesses a 1% tax on all settlements of foreign
currency used to purchase listed equity securities.

3.  REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS:  In connection with transactions in repurchase
agreements, a bank as a custodian for the Portfolio takes possession of the
underlying securities, the value of




                                    144

<PAGE>


which exceeds the principal amount of the repurchase transaction, including
accrued interest.  To the extent that any repurchase transaction exceeds one
business day, the value of the collateral is marked-to-market on a daily
basis to determine the adequacy of the collateral. In the event of default on
the obligation to repurchase, the Portfolio has the right to liquidate the
collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation.  In the
event of default or bankruptcy by counter-party to the agreement, realization
and/or retention of the collateral or proceeds may be subject to legal
proceedings.

4.  FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION AND FOREIGN INVESTMENTS:  The books and
records of the Portfolio are maintained in United States dollars.  Foreign
currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars at the mean of the bid and
asked prices of such currencies against U.S. dollars last quoted by a major
U.S. or foreign bank.  Although the net assets of the Portfolio are presented
at the foreign exchange rates and market values at the close of the period,
the Portfolio does not isolate that portion of the results of operations
arising as a result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the
fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of the securities held
at period end.  Similarly the Portfolio does not isolate the effect of
changes in foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes
in the market prices of securities sold during the period.  Accordingly,
realized and unrealized foreign currency gains (losses) are included in the
reported net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investment
transactions and balances.  However, pursuant to U.S. Federal income tax
regulations, gains and losses from certain foreign currency transactions are
treated as ordinary income for U.S. Federal income tax purposes.

Net realized gains (losses) on foreign currency transactions represent net
foreign exchange gains (losses) from forward foreign currency contracts,
disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between
the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the difference
between the amount of investment income and foreign withholding taxes
recorded on the Portfolio's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amount
actually received or paid, and certain currency related amounts of realized
gains or losses from the sale of foreign denominated debt securities.

Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations
and risks not typically associated with those of U.S. dollar denominated
transactions as a result of, among other factors, the possibly lower level of
governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets and the
possibility of political or economic instability.

5.  FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS:  The Portfolio may enter into forward
foreign currency contracts to attempt to protect securities and related
receivables and payables against changes in future foreign exchange rates.  A
forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell
currency at a set price on a future date.  The market value of the contract
will fluctuate with changes in currency exchange rates.  The contract is
marked-to-market daily using the forward rate and the change in market value
is recorded by the Portfolio as unrealized gain or loss.  The Portfolio
records realized gains or losses when the contract is closed equal to the
difference between the value of the contract at the time it



                                    145

<PAGE>


was opened and the value at the time it was closed.  Risks may arise upon
entering into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties
to meet the terms of their contracts and is generally limited to the amount
of the unrealized gain on the contracts (if any) at the date of default.
Risks may arise from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign
currency relative to the U.S. dollar.

6.  FORWARD COMMITMENTS AND WHEN-ISSUED/DELAYED DELIVERY SECURITIES:  The
Portfolio may make forward commitments to purchase or sell securities.
Payment and delivery for securities which have been purchased or sold on a
forward commitment basis can take place a month or more (not to exceed 120
days) after the date of the transaction.  Additionally, the Portfolio may
purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis.  Securities
purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are purchased for
delivery beyond the normal settlement date at a stated price and yield, and
no income accrues to the Portfolio on such securities prior to delivery.
When the Portfolio enters into a purchase transaction on a when-issued or
delayed delivery basis, it establishes a segregated account in which it
maintains liquid assets in an amount at least equal in value to the
Portfolio's commitments to purchase such securities.  Purchasing securities
on a forward commitment or when-issued or delayed delivery basis may involve
a risk that the market price at the time of delivery may be lower than the
agreed-upon purchase price, in which case there could be an unrealized loss
at the time of delivery.

7.  SHORT SALES:  The Portfolio may sell securities short.  A short sale is a
transaction in which the Portfolio sells securities it does not own, but has
borrowed, in anticipation of a decline in the price of the securities.  The
Portfolio is obligated to replace the borrowed securities at the market price
at the time of replacement.  The Portfolio may have to pay a premium to
borrow the securities as well as pay any dividends or interest payable on the
securities until they are replaced.  The Portfolio's obligation to replace
the securities borrowed in connection with a short sale will generally be
secured by collateral deposited with the broker that consists of cash, U.S.
government securities or other liquid, high grade debt obligations.  In
addition, the Portfolio will place in a segregated account with its Custodian
an amount of cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid high grade debt
obligations equal to the difference, if any, between (1) the market value of
the securities sold at the time they were sold short and (2) ant cash,  U.S.
government securities or other liquid high grade debt obligations deposited
as collateral with the broker in connection with the short sale (not
including the proceeds of the short sale).  Short sales by the Portfolio
involve certain risks and special considerations.  Possible losses from short
sales differ from losses that could be incurred from a purchase of a
security, because losses from short sales may be unlimited, whereas losses
from purchases cannot exceed the total amount invested.

8.  PURCHASED AND WRITTEN OPTIONS:  The Portfolio may write covered call
options.  Premiums are received and are recorded as liabilities, and
subsequently adjusted to the current value of the options written.  Premiums
received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains.
Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or canceled in
closing purchase transactions are offset against the proceeds or amount paid
on the transaction



                                    146
<PAGE>


to determine the realized gain or loss.  By writing a call option, the
Portfolio foregoes in exchange for the premium the opportunity for capital
appreciation above the exercise price should the market price of the
underlying security increase.  Possible losses from written options may be
unlimited.

The Portfolio may also purchase call options on It's portfolio securities.
The Portfolio may purchase call options to close out covered call positions
or to protect against an increase in the price of the security it anticipates
purchasing.  Possible losses from purchased options cannot exceed the total
amount invested.

9.  OTHER:  Security transactions are accounted for on the date the
securities are purchased or sold.  Costs used in determining realized gains
and losses on the sale of investment securities are those of specific
securities sold.  Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis except where collection is
in doubt.  Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are amortized
according to the effective yield method over their respective lives.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-distribution date. Most expenses of the
Fund can be directly attributed to a particular Portfolio.  Expenses which
cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among the Portfolios based upon
relative net assets.

Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in
accordance with tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles.

Prior governmental approval for foreign investments may be required under
certain circumstances in some emerging countries, and the extent of foreign
investment in domestic companies may be subject to limitation in other
emerging countries.  Foreign ownership limitations also may be imposed by the
charters of individual companies in emerging countries to prevent, among
other concerns, violation of foreign investment limitations.  As a result, an
additional class of shares (identified as "Foreign" in the Portfolio
Valuation) may be created and offered for investment.  The "local" and
"foreign" shares' market values may vary.

B.  Morgan Stanley Asset Management Inc. ("MSAM") provides the Portfolio with
investment advisory services at a fee calculated at the annual rate of
average daily net assets indicated below.  MSAM has agreed to reduce fees
payable to it and to reimburse the Portfolio, if necessary, if the annual
operating expenses, expressed as a percentage of average daily net assets,
exceed the maximum ratio indicated below.
                                                                Maximum

C.  MSAM also provides the Portfolio with administrative services pursuant to
an Administrative Agreement for a monthly fee which on an annual basis equals
0.15% of the average daily net assets of each Portfolio plus reimbursement of
out-of-pocket expenses.  Under an agreement between MSAM and U.S. Trust
Company of New York ("U.S. Trust"), Mutual Funds Service Company ("MFSC"), a
subsidiary of U.S. Trust, provides certain administrative services to the
Portfolio.  For such services, MSAM pays U.S. Trust a portion of the fee MSAM
receives from the Portfolio.

Bice Chileconsult Agente de Valores S.A. (the "Chilean Administrator") acts
as the Portfolios' legal representative in Chile pursuant to an
administrative agreement (the "Chilean Administrative Agreement").  The
Chilean Administrator provides various services to the Portfolio for a
monthly fee which on an annual basis is equal to the greater of 0.125% of the
Portfolios' average weekly net assets invested in Chile or $20,000.

Unibanco-Uniao (the "Brazilian Administrator") provides the Portfolio with
administrative services pursuant to an Administrative Agreement (the
"Brazilian Administration Agreement") for a monthly fee which on an annual
basis equals 0.125% of the Portfolio's average weekly net assets invested in
Brazil.

D.  Morgan Stanley Trust Company ("MSTC") acts as custodian for the
Portfolio's assets held outside the United States in accordance with a
Custodian Agreement.  U.S. Trust acts as custodian for the Portfolio's
domestic assets in accordance with a Custodian Agreement.  Custodian fees are
computed and payable monthly based on securities held, investment purchases
and sales activity, an account maintenance fee, plus reimbursement for
certain out-of-pocket expenses.  MSTC and MSAM are wholly-owned subsidiaries
of Morgan Stanley Group, Inc..

During the period January 18, 1995 through June 30, 1995 the Portfolio
incurred custody fees and had amounts payable to MSTC at June 30, 1995 of:

                           MSTC

$978,000 related to depreciated securities.

                   MORGAN STANLEY INSTITUTIONAL FUND, INC.
                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
                               JUNE 30, 1995

Morgan Stanley Institutional Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management
investment company which offers redeemable shares of twenty-four diversified
and non-diversified investment portfolios. These Notes pertain only to the
unaudited financial statements dated June 30, 1995 for one such investment
portfolio, the Municipal Bond Portfolio (the "Portfolio").

A.  The following significant accounting policies are in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies.  Such
policies are consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of the
financial statements.

1.  SECURITY VALUATION:  Bonds and other fixed income securities are valued
according to the broadest and most representative market.  In addition, bonds
and other fixed income securities may be valued on the basis of prices
provided by a pricing service which are based primarily on institutional size
trading in similar groups of securities.  Securities not priced in this
manner are valued at the most recently quoted bid price, or, when securities
exchange valuations are used, at the latest quoted sale price on the day of
valuation.  If there is no such reported sale, the latest quoted bid price
will be used.  Securities purchased with remaining maturities of 60 days or
less are valued at amortized cost, if it approximates market value.
Municipal money market securities are stated at amortized cost, which
approximates market value.  All other securities and assets for which market
values are not readily available, including restricted securities, are valued
at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, although
the actual calculations may be done by others.

2.  INCOME TAXES:  It is the Portfolio's intention to qualify as a regulated
investment company and distribute all of its taxable income.  Accordingly, no
provision for Federal income taxes is required in the financial statements.
The Portfolio may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which it
invests.  Such taxes are generally based on either income earned or
repatriated.  The Portfolio accrues such taxes when the related income is
earned.

3.  REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS:  In connection with transactions in repurchase
agreements, a bank as a custodian for the Portfolio takes possession of the
underlying securities, the value of which exceeds the principal amount of the
repurchase transaction, including accrued interest.  To the extent that any
repurchase transaction exceeds one business day, the value of the collateral
is marked-to-market on a daily basis to determine the adequacy of the
collateral. In the event of default on the obligation to repurchase, the
Portfolio has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in
satisfaction of the obligation.  In the event of default or bankruptcy by the
other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral
or proceeds may be subject to legal proceedings.


                                    156

<PAGE>



4.  FORWARD COMMITMENTS AND WHEN-ISSUED/DELAYED DELIVERY SECURITIES:  The
Portfolio may make forward commitments to purchase or sell securities.
Payment and delivery for securities which have been purchased or sold on a
forward commitment basis can take place a month or more (not to exceed 120
days) after the date of transaction.  Additionally, the Portfolio may
purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis.  Securities
purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are purchased for
delivery beyond the normal settlement date at a stated price and yield, and
no income accrues to the Portfolio on such securities prior to delivery date.
 When the Portfolio enters into a purchase transaction on a when-issued or
delayed delivery basis, it establishes a segregated account in which it
maintains liquid assets in an amount at least equal in value to the
Portfolio's commitments to purchase such securities.  Purchasing securities
on a forward commitment or when-issued or delayed delivery basis may involve
a risk that the market price at the time of delivery may be lower than the
agreed-upon purchase price, in which case there could be an unrealized loss
at the time of delivery.

5.  OTHER:  Security transactions are accounted for on the date the
securities are purchased or sold.  Costs used in determining realized gains
and losses on the sale of investment securities are those of specific
securities sold.  Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis except where collection is
in doubt.  Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are amortized
according to the effective yield method over their respective lives.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-distribution date. Most expenses of the
Fund can be directly attributed to a particular Portfolio.  Expenses which
cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among the Portfolios based upon
relative net assets.

Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in
accordance with tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles.

B.  Morgan Stanley Asset Management Inc. ("MSAM") provides the Portfolio with
investment advisory services at a fee calculated at the annual rate of
average daily net assets indicated below.  MSAM has agreed to reduce fees
payable to it and to reimburse the Portfolio, if necessary, if the annual
operating expenses, expressed as a percentage of average daily net assets,
exceed the maximum ratio indicated below.

Municipal Bond Portfolio                         0.35%               0.45%

C.  MSAM also provides the Portfolio with administrative services pursuant to
an Administrative Agreement for a monthly fee which on an annual basis equals
0.15% of the average daily net assets of each Portfolio plus reimbursement of
out-of-pocket expenses.

Under an agreement between MSAM and U.S. Trust Company of New York ("U.S.
Trust"), Mutual Funds Service Company ("MFSC"), a subsidiary of U.S. Trust,
provides certain administrative services to the Fund.  For such services,
MSAM pays U.S. Trust a portion of the fee MSAM receives from the Fund.  MSAM
is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley Group, Inc..

D.  U.S. Trust acts as custodian for the Portfolio's assets in accordance
with a Custodian Agreement.  Custodian fees are computed and payable monthly
based on securities held, investment purchases and sales activity, an account
maintenance fee, plus reimbursement for certain out-of-pocket expenses.

E. During the period January 18, 1995 through June 30, 1995, purchases and
sales of investment securities other than U.S. Government securities and
short-term investments were:

                                           Purchases      Sales

                         MORGAN STANLEY INSTITUTIONAL FUND, INC.
                        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
                                    JUNE 30, 1995

   Morgan Stanley Institutional Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management
investment company which offers redeemable shares of twenty-four diversified
and non-diversified investment portfolios. These Notes pertain only to the
unaudited financial statements dated June 30, 1995 for one such investment
portfolio, the U.S. Real Estate Portfolio (the "Portfolio").

A.   The following significant accounting policies are in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies.  Such
policies are consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of the
financial statements.

1.   SECURITY VALUATION: Equity securities listed on an exchange and equity
securities traded on NASDAQ are valued at the latest quoted sales price.
Unlisted securities and listed securities not traded on the valuation date
for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the mean
between the current bid and asked prices obtained from reputable brokers.
Bonds and other fixed income securities are valued according to the broadest
and most representative market.  In addition, bonds and other fixed income
securities may be valued on the basis of prices provided by a pricing service
which are based primarily on institutional size trading in similar groups of
securities.  Securities purchased with remaining maturities of 60 days or
less are valued at amortized cost, if it approximates market value. Money
market securities are stated at amortized cost, which approximates market
value. All other securities and assets for which market values are not
readily available, including restricted securities, are valued at fair value
as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, although the actual
calculations may be done by others.

2.   INCOME TAXES:  It is the Portfolio's intention to qualify as a regulated
investment company and distribute all of its taxable income.  Accordingly, no
provision for Federal income taxes is required in the financial statements.

3.   REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS:  In connection with transactions in repurchase
agreements, a bank as a custodian for the Portfolio takes possession of the
underlying securities, the value of which is at least equal to the principal
amount of the repurchase transaction, including accrued interest.  To the
extent that any repurchase transaction exceeds one business day, the value of
the collateral is marked-to-market on a daily basis to determine the adequacy
of the collateral. In the event of default on the obligation to repurchase,
the Portfolio has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the
proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation.  In the event of default or
bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention
of the collateral or proceeds may be subject to legal proceedings.


                                    164


<PAGE>



4.   FORWARD COMMITMENTS AND WHEN-ISSUED/DELAYED DELIVERY SECURITIES:  The
Portfolio may make forward commitments to purchase or sell securities.
Payment and delivery for securities which have been purchased or sold on a
forward commitment basis can take place a month or more (not to exceed 120
days) after the date of the transaction. Additionally, the Portfolio may
purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. Securities
purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are purchased for
delivery beyond the normal settlement date at a stated price and yield, and
no income accrues to the Portfolio on such securities prior to delivery. When
the Portfolio enters into a purchase transaction on a when-issued or delayed
delivery basis, it establishes a segregated account in which it maintains
liquid assets in an amount at least equal in value to the Portfolio's
commitments to purchase such securities. Purchasing securities on a forward
commitment or when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may involve a risk that
the market price at the time of delivery may be lower than the agreed-upon
purchase price, in which case there could be an unrealized loss at the time
of delivery.

5.   OTHER:  Security transactions are accounted for on the date the
securities are purchased or sold.  Costs used in determining realized gains
and losses on the sale of investment securities are those of specific
securities sold.  Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis except where collection is
in doubt.  Discounts and premiums on securities purchased (other than
mortgage-backed securities) are amortized according to the effective yield
method over their respective lives.  Distributions are recorded on the
ex-distribution date. Most expenses of the Fund can be directly attributed to
a particular Portfolio.  Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are
apportioned among the Portfolios based upon relative net assets.

Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in
accordance with tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles.

B.   Morgan Stanley Asset Management Inc. ("MSAM") provides the Portfolio
with investment advisory services at a fee calculated at the annual rate of
average daily net assets indicated below.  MSAM has agreed to reduce fees
payable to it and to reimburse the Portfolio, if necessary, if the annual
operating expenses, expressed as a percentage of average daily net assets,
exceed the maximum ratio indicated below.

                                                             Maximum

U.S. Real Estate Portfolio . . . . . . . .    0.80%            1.00%

C.   MSAM also provides the Portfolio with administrative services pursuant
to an Administrative Agreement for a monthly fee which on an annual basis
equals 0.15% of the average daily net assets of each Portfolio plus
reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses.


                                    165



<PAGE>



Under an agreement between MSAM and U.S. Trust Company of New York ("U.S.
Trust"), Mutual Funds Service Company ("MFSC"), a subsidiary of U.S. Trust,
provides certain administrative services to the Portfolio.  For such
services, MSAM pays U.S. Trust a portion of the fee MSAM receives from the
Portfolio. MSAM is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley Group, Inc.

D.   CUSTODIANS: U.S. Trust acts as custodian for the Portfolio's assets in
accordance with a Custodian Agreement.  Custodian fees are computed and
payable monthly based on investment purchases and sales activity, an account
maintenance fee, plus reimbursement for certain out-of-pocket expenses.

E.   PURCHASES AND SALES:  During the period February 24, 1995 through June
30, 1995, purchases and sales of investment securities other than U.S.
Government securities and short-term investments were:

                      Purchases               Sales
                      ---------               -----
                        (000)                 (000)

                      $48,607                $11,450

F.   At June 30, 1995, the Portfolio's cost for Federal income tax purposes
was $39,216,000. Net realized appreciation for Federal income tax purposes
aggregated $1,300,000 of which $1,373,000 related to appreciated securities
and $73,000 related to depreciated securities.

Floating Rate Security. The interest rate changes on these instruments are based
on changes in a designated base rate. The rates shown are those in effect on
June 30, 1995.

At June 30, 1995, approximately 97% of the Portfolio's net assets consisted of
high yield securities rated below investment grade. Investments in high yield
securities are accompanied by a greater degree of credit risk and the risk tends
to be more sensitive to economic conditions than higher rated securities.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
JUNE 30, 1995
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Morgan Stanley Institutional Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end management investment company. As
of June 30, 1995, the Fund was comprised of 24 separate active, diversified and
non-diversified portfolios (each referred to as the "Portfolio"). During the six
months ended June 30, 1995, the following Portfolios commenced operations: Latin
American and Municipal Bond Portfolios on January 18, 1995, the U.S. Real Estate
Portfolio on February 24, 1995, and the Aggressive Equity Portfolio on March 8,
1995.

A. The following significant accounting policies are in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies. Such policies
are consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of the financial
statements.

1. SECURITY VALUATION: Equity securities listed on an exchange and equity
securities traded on NASDAQ are valued at the latest quoted sales price.
Securities listed on a foreign exchange are valued at their closing price.
Unlisted securities and listed securities not traded on the valuation date for
which market quotations are readily available are valued at the mean between the
current bid and asked prices obtained from reputable brokers. Bonds and other
fixed income securities may be valued according to the broadest and most
representative market. In addition, bonds and other fixed income securities may
be valued on the basis of prices provided by a pricing service which are based
primarily on institutional size trading in similar groups of securities. Debt
securities purchased with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at
amortized cost, if it approximates market value. Money market and municipal
money market securities are stated at amortized cost, which approximates market
value. All other securities and assets for which market values are not readily
available, including restricted securities, are valued at fair value as
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, although the actual
calculations may be done by others.

2. INCOME TAXES: It is each Portfolio's intention to qualify as a regulated
investment company and distribute all of its taxable and tax-exempt income.
Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes is required in the financial
statements.

The Portfolios may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which it invests.
Such taxes are generally based on either income or gains earned or repatriated.
The Portfolio accrues such taxes when the related income is earned. For
investments in Indian securities a capital gains tax is accrued based on the
relative amounts of net realized gains and net unrealized appreciation of such
securities. The Brazilian government assesses a 1% tax on all settlements of
foreign currency used to purchase listed equity securities. The Brazilian
government repealed this tax on March 10, 1995.

Paid in capital, undistributed net investment income (loss) and accumulated gain
(loss) are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences.

3. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS: In connection with transactions in repurchase
agreements, a bank as custodian for the Fund takes possession of the underlying
securities, with a market value at least equal to the principal amount of the
repurchase transaction, including accrued interest. To the extent that any
repurchase transaction exceeds one business day, the value of the collateral is
marked-to-market on a daily basis to determine the adequacy of the collateral.
In the event of default on the obligation to repurchase, the Fund has the right
to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the
obligation. In the event of default or bankruptcy by the counter party to the
agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral or proceeds may be
subject to legal proceedings.

4. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION AND FOREIGN INVESTMENTS: The books and records
of the Fund are maintained in United States dollars. Foreign currency amounts
are translated into US dollars at the mean of the bid and asked prices of such
currencies against US dollars last quoted by a major US or foreign bank.
Although the net assets of the Fund are presented at the foreign exchange rates
and market values at the close of the period, the Fund does not isolate that
portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the
foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market
prices of the securities held at period end. Similarly, the Fund does not
isolate the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations
arising from changes in the market prices of securities sold during the period.
Accordingly, realized and unrealized foreign currency gains (losses) are
included in the reported net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on
investment transactions and balances. However, pursuant to US Federal income tax
regulations, gains and losses from certain foreign currency transactions are
treated as ordinary income for US Federal income tax purposes.

Net realized gains (losses) on foreign currency transactions represent net
foreign exchange gains (losses) from forward foreign currency contracts,
disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the
trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference
between the amount of investment income and foreign withholding taxes recorded
on the Fund's books and the US dollar equivalent amounts actually received or
paid and

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONT.)
JUNE 30, 1995
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
certain currency related amounts of realized gains or losses from the sale of
foreign denominated debt securities.

Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations
and risks not typically associated with those of US dollar denominated
transactions as a result of, among other factors, the possibility of lower
levels of governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets
and the possibility of political or economic instability.

5. FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS: Each Portfolio, except the Equity Growth,
U.S. Real Estate, Municipal Bond, Money Market and Municipal Money Market
Portfolios, may enter into forward currency contracts to attempt to protect
securities and related receivables and payables against changes in future
foreign exchange rates. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two
parties to buy or sell currency at a set price on a future date. The market
value of the contract will fluctuate with changes in currency exchange rates.
The contract is marked-to-market daily using the forward rate and the change in
market value is recorded by the Fund as unrealized gain or loss. The Fund
records realized gains or losses when the contract is closed equal to the
difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the
value at the time it was closed. Risk may arise upon entering into these
contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of
their contracts and is generally limited to the amount of the unrealized gain on
the contracts (if any) at the date of default. Risks may also arise from
unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the US
dollar.

6. FORWARD COMMITMENTS AND WHEN-ISSUED/DELAYED DELIVERY SECURITIES: Each
Portfolio may make forward commitments to purchase or sell securities. Payment
and delivery for securities which have been purchased or sold on a forward
commitment basis can take place a month or more (not to exceed 120 days) after
the date of the transaction. Additionally, certain Portfolios may purchase
securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. Securities purchased on a
when-issued or delayed delivery basis are purchased for delivery beyond the
normal settlement date at a stated price and yield, and no income accrues to the
Portfolio on such securities prior to delivery. When the Portfolio enters into a
purchase transaction on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis, it establishes
a segregated account in which it maintains liquid assets in an amount at least
equal in value to the Portfolio's commitments to purchase such securities.
Purchasing securities on a forward commitment or when-issued or delayed-delivery
basis may involve a risk that the market price at the time of delivery may be
lower than the agreed-upon purchase price, in which case there could be an
unrealized loss at the time of delivery.

7. LOAN AGREEMENTS: The Emerging Markets, Emerging Markets Debt and High Yield
Portfolios may invest in fixed and floating rate loans ("Loans") arranged
through private negotiations between an issuer of sovereign debt obligations and
one or more financial institutions ("Lenders") deemed to be creditworthy by the
investment adviser. The Portfolio's investments in Loans may be in the form of
participations in Loans ("Participations") or assignments of all or a portion of
Loans ("Assignments") from third parties. The Portfolio's investment in
Participations typically results in the Portfolio having a contractual
relationship with only the Lender and not with the borrower. The Portfolio has
the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is
entitled only from the Lender selling the Participation and only upon receipt by
the Lender of the payments from the borrower. The Portfolio generally has no
right to enforce compliance by the borrower with the terms of the loan
agreement. As a result, the Portfolio may be subject to the credit risk of both
the borrower and the Lender that is selling the Participation. When the
Portfolio purchases Assignments from Lenders, it acquires direct rights against
the borrower on the Loan. Because Assignments are arranged through private
negotiations between potential assignees and potential assignors, the rights and
obligations acquired by the Portfolio as the purchaser of an Assignment may
differ from, and be more limited than, those held by the assigning Lender.

8. SHORT SALES: The Latin American, Aggressive Equity and Emerging Markets Debt
Portfolios may sell securities short. A short sale is a transaction in which the
Portfolio sells securities it does not own, but has borrowed, in anticipation of
a decline in the market price of the securities. The Portfolio is obligated to
replace the borrowed securities at the market price at the time of replacement.
The Portfolio may have to pay a premium to borrow the securities as well as pay
any dividends or interest payable on the securities until they are replaced. The
Portfolio's obligation to replace the securities borrowed in connection with a
short sale will generally be secured by collateral deposited with the broker
that consists of cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid, high grade
debt obligations. In addition, the Portfolio will place in a segregated account
with its Custodian an amount of cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid
high grade debt obligations equal to the difference, if any, between (1) the
market value of the securities sold at the time they were sold short and (2) any
cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid high grade debt

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
obligations deposited as collateral with the broker in connection with the short
sale (not including the proceeds of the short sale). Short sales by the
Portfolio involve certain risks and special considerations. Possible losses from
short sales differ from losses that could be incurred from a purchase of a
security, because losses from short sales may be unlimited, whereas losses from
purchases cannot exceed the total amount invested.

9. PURCHASED AND WRITTEN OPTIONS: The Active Country Allocation, Gold, Latin
American, Aggressive Equity, Equity Growth, U.S. Real Estate, and Emerging
Markets Debt Portfolios may write covered call options. Premiums are received
and are recorded as liabilities, and subsequently adjusted to the current value
of the options written. Premiums received from writing options which expire are
treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are
exercised or are canceled in closing purchase transactions are offset against
the proceeds or amount paid on the transaction to determine the realized gain or
loss. By writing a call option, a Portfolio foregoes in exchange for the premium
the opportunity for capital appreciation above the exercise price should the
market price of the underlying security increase. Possible losses from written
options may be unlimited.

The Active Country Allocation, Gold, Latin American, Aggressive Equity, Equity
Growth and U.S. Real Estate Portfolios may also purchase call options on their
portfolio securities. Each portfolio may purchase call options to close out
covered call positions or to protect against an increase in the price of the
security it anticipates purchasing. Possible losses from purchased options
cannot exceed the total amount invested.

10. OTHER: Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities
are purchased or sold. Costs used in determining realized gains and losses on
the sale of investment securities are those of specific securities sold.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is
recognized on the accrual basis except where collection is in doubt. Discounts
and premiums on securities purchased (other than mortgage-backed securities) are
amortized according to the effective yield method over their respective lives.
Most expenses of the Fund can be directly attributed to a particular Portfolio.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among the
Portfolios based upon relative net assets. Dividends from the Money Market and
the Municipal Money Market Portfolios are accrued daily and are distributed on
or about the 15th of each month. Distributions from the remaining Portfolios are
recorded on the ex-date.

Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance
with tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for
mortgage-backed securities, foreign currency transactions, net operating losses,
deferral of wash sales and post October losses and realization of gains and
losses on certain investments including forward foreign currency contracts,
options and futures contracts.

Prior governmental approval for foreign investments may be required under
certain circumstances in some emerging countries, and the extent of foreign
investment in domestic companies may be subject to limitation in other emerging
countries. Foreign ownership limitations also may be imposed by the charters of
individual companies in emerging countries to prevent, among other concerns,
violation of foreign investment limitations. As a result, an additional class of
shares (identified as "Foreign" in the Statement of Net Assets) may be created
and offered for investment. The "local" and "foreign" shares' market values may
differ.

A transaction fee of one percent is charged on subscriptions and redemptions of
capital shares of the International Small Cap Portfolio. Such fees are paid to
or retained by the Portfolio and included in paid in capital. During the six
months ended June 30, 1995, such transaction fees totaled approximately
$518,000.

B. Morgan Stanley Asset Management Inc. ("MSAM") provides the Fund with
investment advisory services at a fee calculated at the annual rates of average
daily net assets indicated below. MSAM has agreed to reduce fees payable to it
and to reimburse the Portfolios, if necessary, if the annual operating

Sun Valley Gold Company is the sub-adviser ("Sub-Adviser") of the Gold
Portfolio. The Sub-Adviser is entitled to receive from MSAM an annual sub-
advisory fee in an amount equal to .40% of the average daily net assets of the
Portfolio. The Sub-Adviser has agreed to a proportionate reduction in its fees
if the Adviser is required to waive its fees or to reimburse the Portfolio.

C. MSAM also provides the Fund with administrative services pursuant to an
administrative agreement, for a monthly fee which on an annual basis equals
0.15% of the average daily net assets of each Portfolio plus reimbursement of
out-of-pocket expenses. Under an agreement between MSAM and The United States
Trust Company of New York ("US Trust"), Mutual Funds Service Company ("MFSC"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of US Trust, provides certain administrative services to
the Fund. For such services, MSAM pays US Trust a portion of the fee MSAM
receives from the Fund.

D. Morgan Stanley Trust Company ("MSTC") acts as custodian for the Fund's assets
held outside the United States in accordance with a custodian agreement.
Custodian fees are computed and payable monthly based on securities held,
investment purchases and sales activity, an account maintenance fee, plus
reimbursement for certain out-of-pocket expenses. MSTC and the Adviser are
wholly-owned subsidiaries of Morgan Stanley Group, Inc.

US Trust acts as custodian for the Fund's assets held in the United States.

During the six months ended June 30, 1995, the following Portfolios incurred
custody fees and had amounts due to MSTC at June 30, 1995 as follow:

To the extent that capital loss carryovers are used to offset any future net
capital gains realized during the carryover period as provided by Federal income
tax regulations, no capital gains tax liability will be incurred by a Portfolio
for gains realized and not distributed. It is unlikely that the gains so offset
would be distributed to shareholders because such distributions may be taxable
to Portfolio shareholders as ordinary income.

Net capital and net currency losses incurred after October 31 and within the
taxable year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the Portfolio's
next taxable year. For the period from November 1, 1994 to December 31, 1994 the
Portfolio's incurred and elected to defer to January 1, 1995 for Federal income
tax purposes net capital and net currency losses of approximately:
