Who May Purchase Fund Shares.....   The Funds were  established to provide
                                    broadly based  investment  opportunities
                                    in the main security markets of the world
                                    for investment  portfolios managed by
                                    professional  trustees and other persons
                                    and institutions acting in a fiduciary
                                    capacity. The Funds are designed  to enable
                                    fiduciaries to comply with the rule that
                                    investments made by fiduciaries should be
                                    selected with the care, skill  and  caution
                                    that would be exercised by a prudent person
                                    where the primary consideration is
                                    preservation of capital. Shares of the Funds
                                    are available to the public as well as
                                    through these fiduciaries.


How to Purchase Fund Shares......   There is no sales charge on the purchase of
                                    Fund shares. Shares of any Fund may be
                                    purchased at the net asset value per share
                                    next determined after receipt and acceptance
                                    of the purchase order. The minimum initial
                                    investment in each Fund is $1,000 which will
                                    be waived for investments in 401(k)
                                    tax-sheltered retirement plans. The $1,000
                                    minimum initial investment is also waived
                                    for Bank Draft Investing accounts which may
                                    be established  with an investment of $50
                                    or more with a minimum of $50  applicable
                                    to each subsequent investment.


Distribution Options.............   Unless the shareholder has elected to
                                    receive dividends and distributions in cash,
                                    dividends and distributions  will be
                                    reinvested in additional shares of the Fund
                                    making such dividend or distribution at the
                                    net asset value per share as of the
                                    reinvestment date. Dividend and capital
                                    gains distributions, if any, are usually
                                    made annually in December.


Redemptions......................   Shares may be redeemed directly from a Fund
                                    at the net asset value per share next
                                    determined after receipt of the redemption
                                    request in good order. A telephone
                                    redemption privilege is available as
                                    described on page 40.


Exchange Privilege...............   Shares of the Funds may be exchanged  for
                                    shares of certain other funds managed
                                    by the Investment  Adviser at the net asset
                                    value next determined after receipt
                                    of the exchange  request.  There are limits
                                    on the number and frequency of exchanges.
                                    A telephone exchange privilege is available
                                    as described on page 39.


Net Asset Value..................   The net asset value per share of each Fund
                                    is calculated  on each day the New York
                                    Stock Exchange is open for trading.  Call
                                    (800) 888-9471 for the current
                                    day's net asset value.


Taxation.........................   Each Fund has qualified and  elected or
                                    intends  to qualify  and elect to be
                                    treated as a  regulated  investment
                                    company for Federal income tax purposes
                                    under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue
                                    Code.

Shareholder Communications.......   Each shareholder will receive annual and
                                    semi-annual reports containing financial
                                    statements, and a statement confirming
                                    each share transaction. Financial statements
                                    included in annual reports are audited by
                                    the Trust's independent certified public
                                    accountants. Where possible, shareholder
                                    confirmations and account statements will
                                    consolidate all Wright investment
                                    fund holdings of the shareholder.

Special Risk Considerations......   International investments pose additional
                                    risks including currency exchange rate
                                    fluctuation, currency revaluation and
                                    political risks. See page 24 for additional
                                    foreign investment considerations.




THE PROSPECTUSES OF THE FUNDS ARE COMBINED IN THIS PROSPECTUS. EACH FUND OFFERS
ONLY ITS OWN SHARES, YET IT IS POSSIBLE  THAT A FUND MIGHT BECOME  LIABLE FOR A
MISSTATEMENT IN THE  PROSPECTUS OF ANOTHER FUND. THE TRUSTEES OF THE TRUST HAVE
CONSIDERED THIS IN APPROVING THE USE OF A COMBINED PROSPECTUS.

[1] After  reduction by the Investment  Adviser. If no reduction were made, the
    Investment Advisory Fees would be a maximum of 0.75% of each Fund's average
    daily net assets.

[2] After reduction by the Principal Underwriter. If no reduction were made, the
    Rule 12b-1 Distribution Expenses would be 0.25% of each Fund's average daily
    net assets.

[3] After allocation of expenses in excess of 2.00% of each Fund's average daily
    net assets to the  Investment  Adviser. If such  allocation  were not made,
    Other Expenses would have amounted to: 3.39% for Italy; and are estimated to
    be 2.01% for  Australasia; 2.05% for Austria;  2.15% for Canada;  2.15% for
    France;  2.15% for Global; 2.08% for International;  2.04% for Ireland; and
    2.00% for United States.

[4] The Investment  Adviser reduced its fee and was allocated  certain  expenses
    during the 1994 fiscal year to the extent  that they  exceeded  2.00% of the
    daily net assets of each Fund that was offering  its shares and  voluntarily
    intends to do the same for each Fund for the current  fiscal year. If no fee
    reductions or expense  allocations  were made, the Annualized Fund Operating
    Expenses  as a  percentage  of  average  net  assets,  including  investment
    advisory  fees at a maximum of 0.75% of average  daily net assets would have
    been: Italy 4.36%;  Spain 2.06%;  Switzerland 2.08%; and, for the Funds with
    no  operating  experience  prior  to 1995,  expenses  are  estimated  to be:
    Australasia 3.11%;  Austria 3.15%; Canada 3.25%; France 3.25%; Global 3.25%;
    International 3.18%; Ireland 3.14%; and United States 3.00%.

     THE TABLE AND EXAMPLE SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED A REPRESENTATION  OF ACTUAL
PAST EXPENSES OR FUTURE EXPENSES. ACTUAL EXPENSES MAY BE MORE OR LESS THAN THOSE
SHOWN  DEPENDING UPON A VARIETY OF FACTORS  INCLUDING THE ACTUAL PERFORMANCE OF
ANY FUND.  Moreover,  while the  Example  assumes a 5% annual return,  a Fund's
actual  performance  will vary and may result in actual returns greater or less
than 5%.

NOTES

(1) The  purpose of the above  tables and  Examples  is to assist  investors in
understanding  the various  costs and expenses  that  investors in the Funds may
bear  directly  or  indirectly.  See  "Financial  Highlights,"  "The  Investment
Adviser,"  "The  Administrator,"  "Distribution  Expenses" and "How To Redeem Or
Sell Shares." The table  reflects  estimated  fees and expenses  based on actual
operating  expenses  for  the  Belgium/Luxembourg,   Hong  Kong,  Italy,  Japan,
Netherlands,  Nordic,  Spain and  Switzerland  Funds for the  fiscal  year ended
December 31, 1994,  adjusted to reflect  changes  resulting from the approval of
new  Investment  Advisory  Contracts  with  Wright.  The Mexico  Fund  commenced
offering  its shares to the  public on August 2, 1994 and its fees and  expenses
are  estimates  for a full fiscal year.  The Britain and Germany  Funds fees and
expenses are estimates for their current fiscal year,  since the Funds were only
recently  organized.  The  fees  and  expenses  shown in the  table  assume  the
continuation  of the  reduction  of the  investment  advisory  fee  and  partial
allocation  of  expenses  to  the  Investment  Adviser,  the  reduction  of  the
Administrator's  fee and the reduction of the fee payable under the Distribution
Plan.  Actual  expenses may be greater or less than those shown in the table and
example.  A Fund's  payment  of a  distribution  fee may  result in a  long-term
shareholder  paying more than the  economic  equivalent  of the maximum  initial
sales  charge  permitted  under  the  Rules  of Fair  Practice  of the  National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.

THE FUNDS AND THEIR INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

     Each Fund seeks to enhance total  investment  return  (consisting  of price
appreciation  plus income) by investing in a broadly  based  portfolio of equity
securities selected by the Investment Adviser from the publicly traded companies
in the  National  Equity  Index for the  nation or nations in which each Fund is
permitted to invest.  Only securities for which adequate  public  information is
available and which could be considered  acceptable  for investment by a prudent
person will comprise a National Equity Index. Each Fund will invest at least 65%
of its total assets in the  securities  of  companies  located in the country or
countries  referred to in its name.  The multiple  country  Funds will invest in
securities of issuers in the following countries:  Wright  EquiFund--Australasia
- -- Australia and New Zealand; Wright EquiFund--Belgium/Luxembourg -- Belgium and
Luxembourg and Wright  EquiFund--Nordic -- Denmark,  Finland, Norway and Sweden.
International  Fund  will  invest at least  65% of its  total  assets  among the
countries (excluding the United States) for which National Equity Indices exist.
Global Fund will  invest at least 65% of its total  assets  among the  countries
(including  the United States) for which  National  Equity  Indices  exist.  The
multiple country Funds will not necessarily  allocate  investments equally among
the different  countries  located in the applicable  geographical  regions since
there may be a limited  number of qualified  issuers and  securities  in a given
country.  Thus,  investments  may at  times be  weighted  more  heavily  in some
countries within a multiple  country Fund. In some instances,  all of the assets
of a multiple-country Fund may be invested in one country. A Fund's selection of
equity securities is limited to those equity securities included in the National
Equity Index (which is described  below)  relating to such Fund. Each Fund will,
under normal market conditions,  invest at least 80% of its net assets in equity
securities, including common stocks, preferred stocks and securities convertible
into  stock.  With  respect  to  Austria,  Belgium/Luxembourg,  Canada,  France,
Germany,  Hong Kong, Italy, Japan,  Netherlands,  Nordic,  Spain and Switzerland
Funds, the policy stated in the preceding sentence is fundamental and may not be
changed without shareholder approval.  As a matter of nonfundamental  policy, it
is expected that the Funds will normally be fully invested in equity securities.
However, for temporary defensive purposes, a Fund may hold cash or invest all or
a portion of its net assets in the short-term  debt  securities  described under
"Special Considerations -- Defensive Investments."

     Except as provided  above,  the  investment  objective and policies of each
Fund have not been  identified as fundamental and may be changed by the Trustees
of the Trust without a vote of the affected Fund's shareholders. Any such change
of the  investment  objective of a Fund will be preceded by thirty days' advance
written  notice to each  shareholder of such Fund. If any changes were made, the
Fund might have an investment  objective  different from the objective  which an
investor considered appropriate at the time the investor became a shareholder in
the Fund.  There is no assurance  that the Funds will achieve  their  respective
investment objective.  The market price of securities held by the Funds that are
quoted or denominated  in foreign  currencies,  when expressed in U.S.  dollars,
will fluctuate in response to changes in exchange rates between the U.S.  dollar
and the currencies in which the securities  are quoted or  denominated.  The net
asset value of each Fund's shares will also  fluctuate as a result of changes in
the value of the securities that it owns.
<PAGE>


THE NATIONAL EQUITY INDICES

     Wright,  with the assistance of local  financial  institutions as described
below, has developed the National Equity Indices (the "Indices").  Each Index is
designed to be an index of  substantially  all the publicly traded  companies in
the nation or nations in which each respective Fund is permitted to invest which
meet the  requirements  of a prudent  investor.  The prudent  investor  standard
requires  that care,  skill and  caution  be used in  selecting  securities  for
investment.  This prudent investor standard is the foundation for the investment
criteria employed in creating the Indices.  Each Fund will select securities for
investment  from those included in the  corresponding  Index,  or in the case of
International  Fund,  from those  included in all the Indices  except the United
States  National Equity Index or in the case of Global Fund, from those included
in all the Indices including the United States National Equity Index.

     Wright has  developed  disciplined  objective  criteria  to insure that the
required  care,  skill and caution are used in selecting  securities for each of
the Indices.

     Wright  generally  considers for inclusion in an Index only those companies
which have at least:

         1. Five  years of  audited  operating  information; 
         2. An  established minimum in both book value and market value; and
         3. A three-year record of pricing in a public market.

     In  addition,  only  companies  that meet the  following  criteria  will be
included in an Index:

         1.  A significant portion of the shares of the company is believed 
             to be publicly owned;

         2.  The company has had  positive  earnings for the last fiscal or 
             calendar year, or for the last twelve months, or cumulatively 
             for the last three years; and

         3.  The company is not a closed-end investment company, a real estate 
             investment trust or a non-bank securities broker/dealer.

     In selecting securities for the Indices and for inclusion in the portfolios
of the Funds,  Wright utilizes its  WORLDSCOPE(R)  international  database.  The
database  provides  more than 1,500  items of  information  on more than  12,000
companies worldwide.  Except with respect to the United States,  Wright utilizes
the services of major financial  institutions that are located in the nations in
which the  respective  Funds are permitted to invest and are qualified to supply
Wright with research  products and services.  These services  include reports on
particular  industries  and  companies,  economic  surveys  and  analyses of the
investment environment and trends in a particular nation,  recommendations as to
whether specific securities should be included in an Index and other appropriate
assistance in the performance of Wright's decision-making responsibilities.
<PAGE>
     The Indices are adjusted  quarterly  and as otherwise  necessary to reflect
significant  events.  Changes  in the  composition  of an Index  will be made by
determining  whether existing  companies  included in the Index continue to meet
the criteria of the Index and whether other  companies  meet these  criteria and
should replace or be added to the companies  already  comprising that Index. The
Indices give equal weight to each security included therein, and are intended to
include   substantially  all  the  publicly  traded  companies  which  meet  the
requirements of the prudent investor in the respective nations. Use of the equal
weighting  method  of  constructing  an Index  will  often  result  in a greater
representation of smaller capitalization companies than would occur if the Index
were weighted on the basis of relative  market  capitalization  in the nation or
nations  in  which  their   securities  are  primarily   traded.   Such  smaller
capitalization   companies   may  have   shorter   operating   histories,   less
diversification   of  assets  and   smaller   dividend   payments   than  larger
capitalization  companies.  On  the  other  hand,  such  smaller  capitalization
companies may be younger or less mature companies still experiencing significant
growth. A detailed  explanation of the objective criteria used in the process of
selecting  companies  for  inclusion in an Index is included in the Statement of
Additional Information.

     The  securities  included  in an Index  will be (i)  admitted  to  official
listing  on a stock  exchange  in any  Member  State  of the  European  Economic
Community,  (ii) admitted to official  listing on a recognized stock exchange in
any other country in Western Europe,  Asia,  Oceania,  the American  continents,
including Bermuda,  and Africa,  (iii) traded on another regulated market in any
such Member  State of the  European  Economic  Community  or such other  country
referred to above, provided such market operates regularly and is recognized and
open to the public,  or (iv)  recently  issued,  provided the terms of the issue
provide that application be made for admission to official listing on any of the
stock exchanges or other regulated  markets referred to above, and provided such
listing is secured within a year following the date of issuance.

     The Investment  Adviser  believes that such a broad equal weighted index is
more  representative of the  corresponding  national markets and displays a bias
towards  smaller,  less mature  companies still  experiencing  some growth.  The
performance of each National Equity Index is included in various publications of
Wright Investors' Service, including the monthly INTERNATIONAL INVESTMENT ADVICE
AND ANALYSIS.



POLICIES THAT APPLY TO ALL FUNDS
EXCEPT THE UNITED STATES, INTERNATIONAL AND GLOBAL FUNDS

     Each Fund seeks to achieve  its  investment objective  of  enhanced  total
investment  return  (price appreciation  plus income) by investing in a broadly
based portfolio of equity securities selected by the Investment Adviser from the
publicly  traded  companies  in  the   corresponding   Index.  Subject  to  the
availability of assets for investment, the Investment Adviser will select equity
securities  for a Fund's portfolio  from  companies in the relevant  Index,  or
determine to  sell  securities  in  the  Fund's 
<PAGE>
portfolio,  on the basis of  characteristics  which have been identified by
the  Investment  Adviser  as being  likely  to  provide  comparatively  superior
investment  return  over the  intermediate  term.  Each Fund may acquire for its
portfolio only those  securities which are included in the relevant Index at the
time of purchase. Although there can be no guarantee that each Fund's investment
objective  will be  achieved,  each Fund is  expected  to have a  broadly  based
investment  portfolio  composed of the equity  securities  of  companies  in the
designated nation or nations.


POLICIES THAT APPLY TO THE UNITED STATES, INTERNATIONAL AND GLOBAL FUNDS

     United  States Fund seeks to achieve its  investment  objective of enhanced
total  investment  return  (price  appreciation  plus  income) by investing in a
broadly based portfolio of equity securities  selected by the Investment Adviser
from the publicly  traded  companies in the United States National Equity Index.
International  and Global Funds seek to achieve their  investment  objectives of
enhanced total investment  return (price  appreciation plus income) by investing
in broadly based  portfolios  of equity  securities  selected by the  Investment
Adviser from the publicly traded  companies in all the Indices except the United
States  National  Equity Index and all the Indices  including  the United States
National Equity Index,  respectively.  Subject to the availability of assets for
investment,  the Investment  Adviser will select equity  securities for a Fund's
portfolio from companies  included in the appropriate  Index or Indices,  as the
case may be, or  determine to sell  securities  in the Fund's  portfolio,  in an
attempt to equal the performance of the appropriate  Index or Indices.  Although
there can be no guarantee that a Fund's  investment  objective will be achieved,
each Fund is expected to have a broadly based investment  portfolio  composed of
the equity securities of companies in the designated nation or nations.


OTHER INVESTMENT POLICIES

     The  Trust,  on  behalf  of each  Fund,  has  adopted  certain  fundamental
investment  restrictions  which are  enumerated  in detail in the  Statement  of
Additional Information and which may be changed as to each Fund only by the vote
of a majority of the affected Fund's outstanding voting securities.  Among these
restrictions,  a Fund may not borrow money except from a bank,  and then only up
to 1/3 of the current  market  value of its total assets  (excluding  the amount
borrowed)  or  purchase  any  securities  which would cause more than 25% of the
market value of its total assets at the time of such  purchase to be invested in
the securities of issuers having their principal business activities in the same
industry,  provided that there is no limitation  with respect to  investments in
obligations  issued or  guaranteed  by the U.S.  Government  or its  agencies or
instrumentalities.  Further,  with respect to 75% of its assets, no more than 5%
of a Fund's total assets may be invested in the  securities  of a single  issuer
and no Fund will purchase more than 10% of the outstanding  voting securities of
a single  issuer.  None of the Funds has any current  intention of borrowing for
leverage or speculative purposes. As a matter of nonfundamental  policy, no Fund
will purchase or enter into an agreement to purchase securities while borrowings
exceed 5% of its total assets.
<PAGE>
     None of the Funds is intended to be a complete investment program by itself
and the prospective  investor should take into account his or her objectives and
other investments when considering the purchase of any Fund's shares.  The Funds
cannot eliminate risk or assure achievement of their objectives.


SPECIAL INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS -- RISKS

Repurchase  Agreements.  Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreements in order
to earn income on  temporarily  uninvested  cash. A  repurchase  agreement is an
agreement  under which the seller of securities  agrees to repurchase and a Fund
agrees to resell the  securities  at a specified  time and price.  Each Fund may
enter into repurchase agreements only with large,  well-capitalized  domestic or
foreign  banks  or  government   securities  dealers  that  meet  Wright  credit
standards.  In addition,  such repurchase agreements will provide that the value
of the collateral  underlying  the repurchase  agreement will always be at least
equal to the repurchase  price,  including any accrued interest earned under the
repurchase agreement.  In the event of a default or bankruptcy by a seller under
a  repurchase  agreement,   the  affected  Fund  will  seek  to  liquidate  such
collateral.  However,  the  exercise of the right to liquidate  such  collateral
could involve  certain  costs,  delays and  restrictions  and is not  ultimately
assured.  To the  extent  that  proceeds  from any sale  upon a  default  of the
obligation to repurchase are less than the repurchase price, a Fund could suffer
a loss. There is no percentage limit on the amount of any Fund's  investments in
repurchase  agreements,  except for the  requirement  that,  under normal market
conditions,  at least 80% of each  Fund's net assets  will be invested in equity
securities.

Temporary  Defensive  Investments.  During periods of unusual market or economic
conditions, when Wright believes that investing for temporary defensive purposes
is  appropriate,  all or any portion of each  Fund's  assets may be held in cash
(including  the  foreign  currency  of the  nation or nations in which such Fund
invests) or invested in  short-term  obligations,  including  but not limited to
obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. or any foreign government or any of
their   respective   agencies  or   instrumentalities;   obligations  of  public
international  agencies;  commercial  paper which at the date of  investment  is
rated A-1 by Standard & Poor's  Ratings  Group  ("Standard  & Poor's") or P-1 by
Moody's Investors  Service,  Inc.  ("Moody's"),  or, if not rated by such rating
organizations,  is deemed by the Investment Adviser to be of comparable quality;
short-term corporate obligations and other debt instruments which at the date of
investment  are  rated AA or  better  by  Standard  & Poor's  or Aa or better by
Moody's  or, if  unrated,  which are deemed by the  Investment  Adviser to be of
comparable quality;  and certificates of deposit,  bankers' acceptances and time
deposits of domestic or foreign banks which are determined to be of high quality
by the Investment  Adviser.  Temporary  investments may be denominated either in
U.S.  dollars  or in the  currency  of the  nation in which  the Fund  primarily
invests.

Foreign   Investments.   Investment  in  securities  of  foreign  companies  and
governments may involve certain risk considerations in addition to those arising
when  investing  in  domestic 
<PAGE>
 securities.   These  considerations  include  the
possibility  of  currency   exchange  rate   fluctuations   and  revaluation  of
currencies,  the existence of less publicly available  information about foreign
issuers, different accounting,  auditing and financial reporting standards, less
stringent securities regulation, non-negotiable brokerage commissions, different
tax provisions, political or social instability, war or expropriation. Moreover,
foreign  stock and bond markets  generally are not as developed and efficient as
those in the United  States and,  therefore,  the volume and  liquidity in those
markets may be less, and the  volatility of prices may be greater,  than in U.S.
markets.  Settlement of  transactions  in foreign  markets may be delayed beyond
what is customary in U.S. markets. These considerations generally are of greater
concern in developing  countries.  Further information  regarding the nations in
which the Funds will invest may be found in the Appendix, beginning on page 45.

     Each Fund may, but does not expect to, invest in foreign  securities in the
form of American  Depositary  Receipts ("ADRs"),  European  Depositary  Receipts
("EDRs"), International Depositary Receipts ("IDRs") or other similar securities
convertible  into  securities of foreign  issuers.  ADRs are receipts  typically
issued by a United  States bank or trust  company  evidencing  ownership  of the
underlying foreign securities.  EDRs and IDRs are receipts typically issued by a
European bank or trust company  evidencing  ownership of the underlying  foreign
securities.

Foreign Currency Transactions. Each Fund, other than the United States Fund, may
buy and sell foreign currencies. The value in U.S. dollars of investments quoted
or  denominated  in foreign  currencies  will be affected by changes in currency
exchange rates. As one way of managing  currency  exchange rate risk, a Fund may
enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts,  which are agreements to
purchase or sell foreign  currencies at a specified  price and date. A Fund will
usually enter into these  contracts to fix the value of a security it has agreed
to buy or sell.  A Fund may also use  these  contracts  to hedge  the value of a
security it already owns,  particularly  if it expects a decline in the value of
the  currency  in which the  foreign  security  is quoted  or  denominated.  The
underlying  currency value of each Fund's  forward  contracts will be limited to
the value of securities to be bought and sold in that currency plus the value of
the Fund's portfolio securities quoted or denominated in such currency. There is
no other percentage  limitation on any Fund's holdings of foreign  currencies or
forward  contracts,  except  for  the  requirement  that,  under  normal  market
conditions,  at least 80% of the Fund's net assets  will be  invested  in equity
securities.  Contracts to sell foreign  currency  could limit any potential gain
which might be realized by a Fund if the value of the hedged currency increases.
Although a Fund will  attempt  to benefit  from  using  forward  contracts,  the
success of its  hedging  strategy  will  depend on  Wright's  ability to predict
accurately the future exchange rate between foreign  currencies.  The ability to
predict the direction of currency  exchange rates involves skills different from
those used in selecting securities.

Lending Portfolio Securities. Each Fund may seek to increase its total return by
lending portfolio securities to broker-dealers or other institutional borrowers.
Such  loans are  required  to be  continuously  secured by  collateral  in cash,
cash-equivalents and U.S. Government securities. During the
<PAGE>
existence of a loan, a Fund will continue to receive the  equivalent of the
interest or dividends paid by the issuer on the securities  loaned and will also
receive a fee, or all or a portion of the interest, if any, on investment of the
collateral. However, the Fund may at the same time pay a transaction fee to such
borrowers.  A Fund may invest the proceeds it receives from a securities loan in
the types of  securities  in which it may invest.  As with other  extensions  of
credit  there  are  risks of delay in  recovery  or even  loss of  rights in the
securities loaned if the borrower of the securities fails financially.  However,
the loans will be made only to organizations deemed by the Investment Adviser to
be of good standing and when,  in the judgment of the  Investment  Adviser,  the
consideration  which can be earned from securities  loans of this type justifies
the attendant risk. The financial condition of the borrower will be monitored by
the  Investment  Adviser  on an  ongoing  basis and  collateral  values  will be
continuously  maintained at no less than 100% by "marking to market"  daily.  If
the Investment Adviser decides to make securities loans, it is intended that the
value of the securities loaned would not exceed 30% of the Fund's total assets.


THE INVESTMENT ADVISER

     Each Fund has engaged Wright Investors' Service ("Wright"),  1000 Lafayette
Boulevard, Bridgeport, Connecticut, to act as its investment adviser pursuant to
Investment Advisory Contracts.  Under the general supervision of the Trustees of
the Trust,  Wright  furnishes the Funds with  investment  advice and  management
services. The Trustees of the Trust are responsible for the general oversight of
the conduct of the Funds' business.

     Wright is a leading  independent  international  investment  management and
advisory firm with more than 30 years' experience.  Its staff of over 175 people

     An Investment Committee of six senior officers, all of whom are experienced
analysts,  exercises  disciplined  direction  and  control  over all  investment

     Under Wright's  Investment  Advisory  Contracts with the Trust on behalf of
the Funds, each Fund is required to pay Wright a monthly advisory fee calculated
at the annual rates (as a percentage  of average  daily net assets) set forth in
the following  table.  However,  for the 1995 fiscal year,  Wright has agreed to
reduce its  advisory  fee and  reallocate  certain  expenses,  if such action is
necessary to keep each Fund's expense ratio at or below 2.00%.

                        ANNUAL % ADVISORY FEE RATES

       Under $500 Million    $500 Million to $1 Billion       Over $1 Billion
       ------------------    ----------------------------     ---------------

           0.75%                      0.73%                     0.68%

     In addition to compensating  Wright for its advisory services to the Funds,
the advisory fee  schedule is intended to  partially  compensate  Wright for the
maintenance  of the  National  Equity  Indices  which  form  the  basis  for the
selection of securities  for the Funds.  Wright incurs  significant  expenses in
maintaining the Indices,  including:  the cost of employing  persons to research
companies  that are  candidates for inclusion in or removal from an Index and to
enter data into Wright's computerized  international  database;  compensation to
institutions  in  each  country  for  research  provided  to  Wright;   expenses
associated with travel to the countries for which Wright maintains Indices;  and
the costs of subscribing to numerous  publications  and making  extensive use of
long-distance telecommunications facilities.

     The need to compensate  Wright for incurring  these expenses in maintaining
the Indices distinguishes the Funds from traditional index funds with portfolios
that track  independent  published indices available at little or no cost to the
funds' managers.

     Shareholders of the Funds who are also advisory  clients of Wright may have
agreed to pay Wright a fee for such advisory services. Wright does not intend to
exclude from the  calculation of the investment  advisory fees payable to Wright
by such  advisory  clients the portion of the advisory fee payable to the Funds.
Accordingly,  a client  may pay an  advisory  fee to Wright in  accordance  with
Wright's  customary  investment  advisory  fee  schedule  charged to  investment
advisory  clients and at the same time,  as a  shareholder  in a Fund,  bear its
share of the advisory fee paid by the Fund to Wright as described above.

Switzerland  Funds  and  prior to  August  25,  1994 for the Hong  Kong,  Italy,
Netherlands  and  Spain  Funds  under  the  Funds'  prior  investment   advisory
contracts,  each  Fund  was  required  to pay  Wright  a  monthly  advisory  fee
calculated  at the  following  annual  rates:  0.50% of average daily net assets
under $500 million;  0.48% of average daily net assets of $500 million and under
$1 billion; and 0.43% of average daily net assets of $1 billion and over.

     Pursuant to the Investment  Advisory  Contracts,  Wright also furnishes for
the use of each Fund office space and all necessary office facilities, equipment
and  personnel  for servicing  the  investments  of each Fund.  Other than those
expenses expressly stated to be payable by Wright under its Investment  Advisory
Contract,  each Fund is responsible for all expenses  relating to its operations
including,   but  not  limited  to,   Wright's   advisory  fee;   Eaton  Vance's
administration  fee; fees pursuant to the Trust's Rule 12b-1  distribution plan;
taxes, if any; custodian, legal and auditing fees; fees and expenses of Trustees
who are not members of, affiliated with or interested persons of Wright or Eaton
Vance;  insurance  premiums;  trade  association  dues;  expenses  of  obtaining
quotations  for  calculating  the value of each Fund's net assets;  printing and
other expenses which are not expressly designated as expenses of Wright or Eaton
Vance.

     Wright places the portfolio  security  transactions for each Fund, which in
some cases may be effected in block  transactions  which include other  accounts
managed by Wright.  Wright  provides  similar  services  directly for bank trust
departments.  Wright seeks to execute the Funds' portfolio security transactions
on the most favorable terms and in the most effective manner  possible.  Subject
to the  foregoing,  Wright may consider sales of shares of the Wright Funds as a
factor in the  selection of  broker-dealer  firms to execute such  transactions.
Portfolio  changes may be made by Wright  without regard to the length of time a
security has been held.  However, it is not the intention of the Funds to engage
in trading for  short-term  profits.  The  frequency  of each  Fund's  portfolio
transactions  or turnover  rate may vary from year to year  depending  on market
conditions.  A high  rate of  portfolio  turnover  (100%  or  more)  involves  a
correspondingly  greater amount of brokerage  commissions  and other costs which
must be borne directly by a Fund and thus indirectly by its shareholders. It may
also  result in the  realization  of larger  amounts of net  short-term  capital
gains,  distributions  from which are taxable to shareholders as ordinary income
and may,  under  certain  circumstances,  make it more  difficult  for a Fund to
qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. It is
anticipated  that the portfolio  turnover rates of the Funds will not exceed 75%
during the current fiscal year. The high portfolio  turnover rate experienced by
the Italy  Fund is  caused by a higher  volume  of  redemptions,  not  portfolio
trading.

     The  investment  advisory  fees payable by the Funds may be higher than the
advisory  fees payable by many mutual funds;  however,  the  Investment  Adviser
believes that such fees are  consistent  with the average fees payable by mutual
funds which invest in foreign equity securities.


THE ADMINISTRATOR

     Each Fund engages Eaton Vance as its administrator  under an Administration
Agreement.  Under the Administration  Agreement,  Eaton Vance is responsible for
managing the business  affairs of each Fund,  subject to the  supervision of the
Trust's Trustees. Eaton Vance's services include recordkeeping,  preparation and
filing of documents  required to comply with Federal and state  securities laws,
supervising the activities of the Funds' custodian and transfer agent, providing
assistance in connection with the Trustees' and shareholders  meetings and other
administrative 
<PAGE>
 services necessary to conduct each Fund's business.  Eaton Vance
will not provide any  investment  management or advisory  services to the Funds.
For its services under the  Administration  Agreement,  each Fund is required to
pay Eaton Vance a monthly  administration fee calculated at the annual rates (as
a percentage of average daily net assets) set forth in the following table.

DISTRIBUTION EXPENSES

     In addition  to the fees and  expenses  payable by each Fund in  accordance
with its Investment  Advisory Contract and Administration  Agreement,  each Fund
pays for certain expenses  pursuant to a Distribution Plan (the "Plan") designed
to meet the  requirements  of Rule  12b-1  under the 1940 Act and  Article  III,
Section  26 of the  Rules  of  Fair  Practice  of the  National  Association  of
Securities Dealers, Inc. (the "NASD").

     The Trust has entered into a distribution  contract with Wright  Investors'
Service  Distributors,   Inc.  ("WISDI"  or  the  "Principal  Underwriter"),   a
wholly-owned  subsidiary  of Wright.  Under this  contract  and the Plan,  it is
currently  intended that each Fund will pay to WISDI for  distribution  services
and  personal and account  maintenance  services in  connection  with the Fund's
shares,  an annual fee equal to .25% of each  Fund's  average  daily net assets.
Appropriate  adjustments  to  payments  made  pursuant to the Plan shall be made
whenever necessary to assure that no payment is made by a Fund which exceeds the
applicable  maximum cap imposed on  asset-based,  front-end  and deferred  sales
charges by Section  26(d) of Article  III of the Rules of Fair  Practice  of the
NASD.

     Pursuant to the Plan,  the Trust,  on behalf of each Fund, is authorized to
compensate  WISDI for (1)  distribution  services  and (2)  personal and account
maintenance services performed and expenses incurred by WISDI in connection with
the Fund's shares. The amount of such compensation,  including  compensation for
personal and account  maintenance  services,  paid during any one year shall not
exceed .25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund. Such compensation shall
be calculated and accrued daily and paid quarterly.

     Distribution  services  and  expenses  for which  WISDI may be  compensated
pursuant to this Plan include, without limitation:  compensation to and expenses
incurred  by  Authorized   Dealers  and  the   officers,   employees  and  sales
representatives of Authorized Dealers and of WISDI;  allocable overhead,  travel
and telephone expenses;  the printing of prospectuses and reports for other than
existing shareholders;  the preparation and distribution of sales literature and
advertising; and all other expenses (other than personal and account maintenance
services as defined  below)  incurred in connection  with  activities  primarily
intended to result in the sale of the Funds' shares.
<PAGE>

     Personal and account maintenance  services include, but are not limited to,
payments made to or on account of WISDI, Authorized Dealers and their respective
officers,  employees and sales  representatives who respond to inquiries of, and
furnish  assistance to,  shareholders  concerning their ownership of Fund shares
and their accounts or who provide similar services not otherwise  provided by or
on behalf of the Fund.

     The  Plan is a  compensation  plan  which  provides  for the  payment  of a
specified  distribution fee without regard to the distribution expenses actually
incurred  by  WISDI.  Accordingly,  an  amount  equal  to  1/365  of the  annual
distribution  fee will be accrued on each day as an expense of each Fund,  which
will  reduce  its net  investment  income.  If the Plan were  terminated  or not
continued by the Trustees and no successor  plan were  adopted,  the Funds would
cease to make distribution  payments to WISDI.  WISDI would be unable to recover
the amount of any unreimbursed distribution expenditures made by WISDI. However,
WISDI  does  not  intend  to  make  distribution  expenditures  at a  rate  that
materially exceeds the rate of compensation received under the Plan.

     The following table shows the distribution  expenses allowable to WISDI and
paid by each Fund that was offering its shares at  December  31,  1994 for the
fiscal year then ended.

HOW THE FUNDS VALUE THEIR SHARES

     The  Trust  values  the  shares  of each Fund once on each day the New York
Stock Exchange  ("NYSE") is open as of the close of regular  trading on the NYSE
(normally  4:00 p.m. New York time).  The net asset value is  determined  in the
manner authorized by the Trustees of the Trust by the Funds' custodian (as agent
for the  Funds)  with the  assistance  of Wright  for  securities  that  involve
valuation problems. Such determination is accomplished by dividing the number of
outstanding  shares of each Fund into its net worth  (the  excess of its  assets
over its liabilities).

     Portfolio  securities  traded  on more  than  one  United  States  national
securities  exchange  or foreign  securities  exchange  are valued by the Funds'
custodian  at the last sale price on the  business day as of which such value is
being determined at the close of the exchange  representing the principal market
for such  securities,  unless  those  prices  are  deemed  by  Wright  to be not
representative  of  market  values.  Securities  which  cannot be valued at such
prices,  will be valued by Wright at fair value in  accordance  with  procedures
adopted by the Trustees.  Foreign currencies,  options on foreign currencies and
forward foreign  currency  contracts will be valued at their last sales price as
determined  by  published  quotations  or as supplied by banks that deal in such
instruments.  The value of all  assets  and  liabilities  expressed  in  foreign
currencies  will be  converted  into U.S.  dollar  value at the mean between the
buying and selling rates of such currencies  against U.S. dollars last quoted by
any major bank. If such quotations are not available,  the rate of exchange will
be determined in good faith by or under procedures  established by the Trustees.
Securities traded  over-the-counter,  unlisted  securities and listed securities
for which  closing sale prices are not  available are valued at the mean between
latest bid and asked prices or, if such bid and asked prices are not  available,
at prices supplied by a pricing agent selected by Wright, unless such prices are
deemed  by Wright  not to be  representative  of  market  values at the close of
business of the NYSE.  Securities for which market  quotations are  unavailable,
restricted  securities,  securities for which prices are deemed by Wright not to
be  representative  of market values and other assets will be appraised at their
fair value as determined in good faith  according to guidelines  established  by
the Trustees of the Trust.  Short-term  obligations with remaining maturities of
sixty  days or less are  valued  at  amortized  cost,  which the  Trustees  have
determined   approximates   market  value.   Options  traded  on  exchanges  and
over-the-counter  will be valued at the last  current  sales price on the market
where such option is principally traded. Over-the-counter and listed options for
which a last  sale  price  is not  available  will be  valued  on the  basis  of
quotations  supplied  by dealers  who  regularly  trade such  options or if such
quotations  are not  available or deemed by Wright not to be  representative  of
market values, at fair value.

     Trading in securities on European and Far Eastern securities  exchanges and
over-the-counter markets is normally completed well before the close of business
on each  business  day in New York  (i.e.,  a day on which  the NYSE is open for
trading).  In addition,  European or Far Eastern securities trading generally or
in a particular  country or countries may not take place on all business days in
New York.  Furthermore,  trading  takes  place in  Japanese  markets  on certain
Saturdays and in various  foreign markets on days which are not business days in
New York and on which the  Funds'  net asset  values  are not  calculated.  Such
calculation does not take place 
<PAGE>
contemporaneously  with the  determination of the prices of the majority of
the portfolio  securities used in such calculation.  Events affecting the values
of portfolio  securities that occur between the time their prices are determined
and the close of the New York Stock  Exchange  will not be reflected in a Fund's
calculation  of net asset value unless  Wright deems that the  particular  event
would  materially  affect net asset value,  in which case an adjustment  will be
made.

HOW TO BUY SHARES

     Shares of each Fund are sold  without a sales charge at the net asset value
next determined  after the receipt of a purchase order as described  below.  The
minimum initial investment in each Fund is $1,000,  although this will be waived
for investments in 401(k)  tax-sheltered  retirement plans.  There is no minimum
amount required for subsequent purchases.  The $1,000 minimum initial investment
is also waived for Bank Draft Investing  accounts which may be established  with
an investment of $50 or more with a minimum of $50 applicable to each subsequent
investment. Each Fund reserves the right to reject any order for the purchase of
its shares or to limit or suspend,  without  prior  notice,  the offering of its
shares.

     Shares of each Fund may be  purchased  or  redeemed  through an  investment
dealer, bank or other institution. Charges may be imposed by the institution for
its services.  Any such charges could constitute a material portion of a smaller
account.  Shares may be  purchased or redeemed  directly  from or with each Fund
without imposition of any charges other than those described in this Prospectus.

     Purchases  By  Wire:   Investors  may  purchase   shares  by   transmitting
immediately available funds (Federal Funds) by wire to:

                     Boston Safe Deposit and Trust Company
                                One Boston Place
                                   Boston, MA

                                 ABA: 011001234
                                 Account 081345
                         Further Credit: (Name of Fund)
                       (Include your Fund account number)


     Initial purchase -- Upon making an initial  investment by wire, an investor
must first telephone the Order  Department of the Funds at (800) 225-6265,  Ext.
3, to advise  of the  action  and to be  assigned  an  account  number.  If this
telephone  call is not  made,  it may  not be  possible  to  process  the  order
promptly.  In addition, an Account Instructions form, which is available through
WISDI, should be promptly forwarded to The Shareholder Services Group, Inc. (the
"Transfer Agent") at the following address:
<PAGE>

                        THE WRIGHT EQUIFUND EQUITY TRUST
                                    BOS 725
                                 P.O. Box 1559
                          Boston, Massachusetts 02104


     Subsequent  Purchases  --  Additional  investments  may be made at any time
through the wire procedure  described above. The Funds' Order Department must be
immediately advised by telephone at (800) 225-6265,  Ext. 3 of each transmission
of funds by wire.


     Purchases  By Mail:  Initial  Purchases  -- The Account  Instructions  form
available  through  WISDI should be completed by an investor,  signed and mailed
with a check,  Federal Reserve Draft, or other negotiable bank draft, drawn on a
U.S. bank and payable in U.S. dollars, to the order of the Fund whose shares are
being purchased and mailed to the Transfer Agent at the above address.

     Subsequent  Purchases -- Additional purchases may be made at any time by an
investor by check,  Federal Reserve draft, or other negotiable bank draft, drawn
on a U.S. bank and payable in U.S. dollars, to the order of the relevant Fund at
the above address. The sub-account,  if any, to which the subsequent purchase is
to be credited should be identified  together with the  sub-account  number and,
unless otherwise agreed, the name of the sub-account.


     Bank Draft Investing -- for regular share accumulation: Cash investments of
$50 or more may be made  through  the  shareholder's  checking  account via bank
draft each month or quarter.  The $1,000  minimum  initial  investment and small
account redemption policy are waived for Bank Draft Investing accounts.


     Purchase  Through  Exchange of  Securities:  Investors  wishing to purchase
shares of a Fund  through an exchange of  portfolio  securities  should  contact
WISDI to  determine  the  acceptability  of the  securities  and make the proper
arrangements.  The shares of a Fund may be  purchased,  in whole or in part,  by
delivering to the Funds' custodian securities that meet the investment objective
and policies of the relevant Fund, have readily  ascertainable market prices and
quotations and which are otherwise  acceptable to the Investment Adviser and the
Fund. The Trust will only accept  securities in exchange for shares of the Funds
for investment  purposes and not as agent for the shareholders  with a view to a
resale of such securities.  The Investment Adviser,  WISDI and the Funds reserve
the right to reject all or any part of the  securities  offered in exchange  for
shares of a Fund. An investor who wishes to make an exchange  should  furnish to
WISDI a list with a full and exact description of all of the securities which he
proposes  to  deliver.  WISDI  or the  Investment  Adviser  will  specify  those
securities  which the Fund is prepared to accept and will  provide the  investor
with the  necessary  forms to be  completed  and  signed  by the  investor.  The
investor should then send the securities,  in proper form for transfer, with the
necessary  forms to the Funds' 
<PAGE>
Custodian and certify that there are no legal or  contractual  restrictions
on the free transfer and sale of the  securities.  Exchanged  securities will be
valued at their fair market value as of the date that the  securities  in proper
form for transfer and the  accompanying  purchase order are both received by the
Trust, using the procedures for valuing portfolio  securities as described under
"How  the  Funds  Value  Their  Shares"  on page  34.  However,  if the  NYSE or
appropriate foreign stock exchange is not open for unrestricted  trading on such
date, such valuation shall be on the next day on which the NYSE or foreign stock
exchange is so open. In any event,  all  valuations are determined in good faith
by or at the  direction  of the Trust's  Trustees.  The net asset value used for
purposes of pricing shares sold under the exchange program will be the net asset
value next  determined  following the receipt of both the securities  offered in
exchange and the  accompanying  purchase order.  Securities to be exchanged must
have a minimum aggregate value of $5,000. An exchange of securities is a taxable
transaction  which may result in  realization  of a gain or loss for Federal and
state income tax purposes.

HOW SHAREHOLDER ACCOUNTS ARE MAINTAINED


     Upon the initial purchase of a Fund's shares, an account will be opened for
the account or sub-account of an investor. Subsequent investments may be made at
any time by mail to the  Transfer  Agent or by wire,  as noted  above.  There is
currently a $500 minimum  account  balance which is required to be maintained by
Fund   shareholders.   The  Trust  has  the  right,  upon  60  days'  notice  to
shareholders, to involuntarily redeem shares, at the net asset value in accounts
which do not meet this minimum account requirement.  However, no such redemption
would be  required  by a Fund if the  cause  of the low  account  balance  was a
reduction  in the net  asset  value  of  Fund  shares.  Confirmation  statements
indicating  total  shares of each Fund owned in the account or each  sub-account
will be mailed to investors  quarterly and at the time of each  purchase  (other
than reinvestment of dividends or distributions) or redemption.  The issuance of
shares will be recorded on the books of the  relevant  Fund.  The Trust does not
issue share certificates.


DISTRIBUTIONS AND DIVIDENDS BY THE FUNDS


     The Trust intends to pay dividends from the net  investment  income of each
Fund as shown on the Fund's  books at least  annually.  Any realized net capital
gains from the sale of securities in a Fund's portfolio or from  transactions in
forward   contracts  or  options   (reduced  by  any   available   capital  loss
carryforwards   from  prior  years)  will  be  also  paid  at  least   annually.
Shareholders may reinvest dividends, and accumulate capital gains distributions,
if any, in  additional  shares of the same Fund at the net asset value as of the
ex-dividend date. Unless shareholders  otherwise instruct, all distributions and
dividends will be automatically  invested in additional shares of the same Fund.
Alternatively,  shareholders may reinvest capital gains distributions and direct
that  dividends  be paid in cash,  or that  both  dividends  and  capital  gains
distributions be paid in cash.
<PAGE>

TAXES

     Under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), each Fund
is treated as a separate  entity for Federal income tax purposes.  Each Fund has
qualified  and  elected  or  intends  to  qualify  and elect to be  treated as a
regulated  investment  company for Federal  income tax purposes.  In order to so
qualify,  each Fund must meet  certain  requirements  with respect to sources of
income, diversification of assets, and distributions to shareholders.  Each Fund
does not pay Federal income or excise taxes to the extent that it distributes to
its shareholders all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains
in accordance  with the timing  requirements of the Code. None of the Funds will
be subject to income, corporate excise or franchise taxation in Massachusetts in
any year in which it qualifies as a regulated investment company under the Code.

     For Federal income tax purposes,  a  shareholder's  proportionate  share of
distributions  from each Fund's net investment income and net short-term capital
gains as well as  distributions  of certain foreign currency gains is taxable as
ordinary income, whether received in cash or reinvested in additional shares. It
is not expected  that any portion of a Fund's  distributions  (with the possible
exception of certain  distributions  from Global Fund and/or United States Fund)
will qualify for the corporate  dividends-received  deduction.  A  shareholder's
proportionate  share of distributions of each Fund's net long-term capital gains
is taxable as long-term  capital gains whether received in cash or reinvested in
additional  shares,  regardless  of how long the  shareholder  has held the Fund
shares.  Distributions on Fund shares shortly after their purchase,  although in
effect a return of a portion of the purchase  price,  are  generally  subject to
Federal  income tax.  Distributions  declared by a Fund in October,  November or
December of any  calendar  year to  shareholders  of record as of a date in such
month and paid the  following  January  will be treated for  Federal  income tax
purposes as having been received by the  shareholder  on December 31 of the year
in which they are declared.

     In order to avoid  Federal  excise tax,  the Code  requires  that each Fund
distribute  (or be deemed to have  distributed)  by December 31 of each calendar
year at least 98% of its  ordinary  income  for such  year,  at least 98% of the
excess of its realized  capital gains over its realized  capital  losses for the
one-year  period ending on October 31 of such year or, at the election of a Fund
with a taxable year ending on December 31, for such taxable year and 100% of any
income and capital gains from the prior year (as  previously  computed) that was
not paid out during such year and on which the Fund paid no Federal income tax.

     A Fund may be subject to foreign  withholding  or other  foreign taxes with
respect to income  (possibly  including,  in some cases,  capital gains) that it
derives from  investments  in foreign  securities and may make an election under
Section  853 of the Code  that  would  allow  shareholders  to claim a credit or
deduction  on their  Federal  income tax  returns  for (and treat as  additional
amounts  distributed to them) their pro rata portion of qualified  taxes paid by
such Fund to foreign countries.  This election may be made only if more than 50%
of the assets of the Fund at the close of a taxable year  consists of securities
in foreign  corporations.  Availability of foreign tax credits or deductions for
shareholders is subject to certain  additional  restrictions  and limitations at
the Fund and shareholder levels.
<PAGE>

     Annually,  shareholders  of each Fund that are not exempt from  information
reporting  requirements  will  receive  information  on Form  1099 to  assist in
reporting the prior calendar year's  distributions  and  redemptions  (including
exchanges) on Federal and state income tax returns.  Shareholders should consult
their own tax advisers with respect to the tax status of distributions  from the
Funds or the  redemption  (including  an  exchange)  of Fund shares in their own
states and  localities.  Under Section 3406 of the Code,  individuals  and other
non-exempt  shareholders will be subject to backup withholding of 31% on taxable
distributions  made by a Fund  and on the  proceeds  of  redemptions  (including
exchanges) of shares of the Fund if they fail to provide to a Fund their correct
taxpayer  identification  numbers and certain required  certifications or if the
Internal  Revenue Service or a broker notifies a Fund that the number  furnished
by the shareholder is incorrect or that the shareholder is otherwise  subject to
such  withholding.  If such withholding is applicable,  such  distributions  and
proceeds will be reduced by the amount of tax required to be withheld.

     Special tax rules apply to IRA  accounts  (including  penalties  on certain
distributions and other transactions) and to other special classes of investors,
such as tax-exempt organizations, banks or insurance companies. Investors should
consult their tax advisers for more information.

     Shareholders  who are not United States  persons  should also consult their
tax advisers about the potential application of certain U.S. taxes,  including a
U.S.  withholding tax at the rate of 30% (or lower treaty rate) on distributions
representing  ordinary income to them (including foreign taxes deemed to be paid
by them), and of foreign taxes to their investment in the Funds.


HOW TO EXCHANGE SHARES

     Shares of any Fund may be  exchanged  for shares of the other  funds in The
Wright  Managed  Equity  Trust,  The Wright  Managed  Income Trust or The Wright
EquiFund Equity Trust at net asset value at the time of the exchange.

     This exchange  offer is available only in states where shares of such other
fund may be  legally  sold.  Each  exchange  is  subject  to a  minimum  initial
investment of $1,000 in each fund.

     Shareholders  purchasing  shares  from  an  Authorized  Dealer  may  effect
exchanges  between  the above funds  through  their  Authorized  Dealer who will
transmit information regarding the requested exchanges to the Transfer Agent.

     The Shareholder Services Group, Inc. makes exchanges at the next determined
net asset  value  after  receiving  a request in writing  mailed to the  address
provided under "How To Buy Shares."

     Telephone  exchanges  are also  accepted if the  exchange  involves  shares
valued at less than $50,000 and on deposit with The Shareholder  Services Group,
Inc. All  shareholders  are  automatically  eligible for the telephone  exchange
privilege.  To effect such exchanges,  call The Shareholder Services Group, Inc.
at 800-262-1122 or, within Massachusetts,  617-573-9403,  Monday through Friday,
9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.  (Eastern  time).  All such  telephone  exchanges must be
registered in 
<PAGE>
the same name(s) and with the same address and social  security or
other taxpayer  identification number as are registered with the Fund from which
the exchange is being made.  See "How to Redeem Or Sell Shares -- By  Telephone"
for a description of the procedures the Funds employ to ensure that instructions
communicated  by  telephone  are  genuine.  None of the Trust,  the  Funds,  the
Principal   Underwriter  or  The  Shareholder   Services  Group,  Inc.  will  be
responsible for the authenticity of exchange instructions received by telephone,
provided  that  reasonable   procedures  have  been  followed  to  confirm  that
instructions  communicated are genuine, and if such procedures are not followed,
the Trust,  the Funds,  the Principal  Underwriter or The  Shareholder  Services
Group,  Inc.  may be liable  for any losses due to  unauthorized  or  fraudulent
telephone  instructions.  Telephone instructions will be tape recorded. In times
of drastic economic or market changes,  a telephone exchange may be difficult to
implement.  Generally,  shareholders will be limited to four Telephone  Exchange
round-trips per year and a Fund may refuse  requests for Telephone  Exchanges in
excess of four round-trips (a round-trip being the exchange out of the Fund into
another Wright Fund, and then back to the Fund).  The Trust believes that use of
the Exchange Privilege by investors utilizing market-timing strategies adversely
affects the Funds.  Therefore,  the Trust  generally will not honor requests for
exchanges,  including  Telephone  Exchanges,  by shareholders  identified by the
Trust  as   "market-timers."   When  calling  to  make  a  telephone   exchange,
shareholders  should have available  their account number and social security or
other taxpayer identification numbers.

     Additional  documentation  may be required for exchange  requests if shares
are  registered in the name of a  corporation,  partnership  or  fiduciary.  Any
exchange  request may be rejected by a Fund or the Principal  Underwriter at its
discretion.  The  exchange  privilege  may be  changed or  discontinued  without
penalty at any time.  Shareholders  will be given 60 days'  prior  notice of any
termination  or  material  amendment  of the  exchange  privilege.  Contact  the
Transfer Agent, The Shareholder Services Group, Inc., for additional information
concerning the Exchange Privilege.

     A shareholder should read the prospectus of the other fund and consider the
differences in objectives and policies before making any exchange.  Shareholders
should be aware that for Federal and state income tax purposes, an exchange is a
taxable transaction which may result in recognition of a gain or loss.



HOW TO REDEEM OR SELL SHARES

     Shares of a Fund will be redeemed  at the net asset  value next  determined
after receipt of a redemption request in good order as described below. Proceeds
will be mailed  within seven days of such receipt.  However,  at various times a
Fund may be  requested to redeem  shares for which it has not yet received  good
payment.  If the shares to be redeemed  represent an  investment  made by check,
each Fund will delay payment of the redemption proceeds until the check has been
collected which,  depending upon the location of the issuing bank, could take up
to 15 days. For Federal and state income tax purposes, a redemption of shares is
a taxable transaction which may result in recognition of a gain or loss.
<PAGE>

     Through  Authorized  Dealers:  Shareholders  using  Authorized  Dealers may
redeem shares through such Dealers.

     By Telephone: All shareholders are automatically eligible for the telephone
redemption  privilege,  unless  the  account  application  indicates  otherwise.
Shareholders  may effect a redemption by calling the Funds' Order  Department at
800-225-6265, (8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Eastern time). In times when the volume of
telephone  redemptions is heavy,  additional  phone lines will  automatically be
added by the Funds.  However,  in times of drastic economic or market changes, a
telephone  redemption  may be  difficult  to  implement.  When calling to make a
telephone redemption, shareholders should have available their account number. A
telephone  redemption will be made at that day's net asset value,  provided that
the  telephone  redemption  request is received  prior to 4:00 p.m. on that day.
Telephone  redemption  requests received after 4:00 p.m. will be effected at the
net asset value  determined  for the next trading  day.  Payment will be made by
check to the address of record or, if an  appropriate  election  was made on the
application  form, by wire  transfer to the bank account or address  designated.
Payment is normally made within one business day after receipt of the redemption
request in good order.  Trust  Departments may make  redemptions and deposit the
proceeds in checking or other accounts of clients,  as specified in instructions
furnished to the Funds at the time of initially  purchasing Fund shares. None of
the Trust,  the Funds,  the Principal  Underwriter or The  Shareholder  Services
Group, Inc. will be responsible for the authenticity of redemption  instructions
received by telephone, provided that reasonable procedures have been followed to
confirm that instructions  communicated are genuine,  and if such procedures are
not followed, the Trust, the Funds, the Principal Underwriter or The Shareholder
Services  Group,  Inc.  may be liable  for any  losses  due to  unauthorized  or
fraudulent telephone instructions.

     Also,  shareholders  may effect a redemption by calling the Funds' Transfer
Agent, The Shareholder  Services Group, Inc., at 800-262-1122 (8:30 a.m. to 4:00
p.m. Eastern time) if the redemption involves shares valued at less than $50,000
and on deposit with The Shareholder Services Group, Inc. Payment will be made by
check to the address of record. Telephone instructions will be tape recorded.

     By Mail: A  shareholder  may also redeem all or any number of shares at any
time by mail by delivering the request with a stock power to the Transfer Agent,
The  Shareholder   Services  Group,  Inc.,   BOS725,   P.O.  Box  1559,  Boston,
Massachusetts  02104.  As in the  case  of  telephone  requests,  payments  will
normally be made within one business day after receipt of the redemption request
in good order. Good order means that written redemption requests or stock powers
must be endorsed by the record owner(s) exactly as the shares are registered and
the  signature(s)  must be  guaranteed  by a member  of  either  the  Securities
Transfer  Association's STAMP program or the NYSE's Medallion Signature Program,
or certain  banks,  savings and loan  institutions,  credit  unions,  securities
dealers,  securities  exchanges,  clearing  agencies and  registered  securities
associations  as  required  by a  regulation  of  the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission and acceptable to The Shareholder  Services Group,  Inc. In addition,
in some cases, good order may require furnishing of additional documents such as
where  shares  are  registered  in the  name of a  corporation,  partnership  or
fiduciary.
<PAGE>

     The right to redeem shares of a Fund and to receive payment therefor may be
suspended  at times (a) when the  securities  markets  are  closed,  other  than
customary weekend and holiday  closings,  (b) when trading is restricted for any
reason,  (c) when an emergency exists as a result of which disposal by a Fund of
securities  owned by it is not  reasonably  practicable  or it is not reasonably
practicable  for a Fund fairly to determine the value of its net assets,  or (d)
when the Securities and Exchange Commission by order permits a suspension of the
right of redemption or a postponement of the date of payment or redemption.

     Due to the relatively high costs of maintaining  small accounts,  each Fund
reserves  the  right  to  redeem  fully at net  asset  value  any  Fund  account
(including  accounts  of  clients  of  fiduciaries)  which at any  time,  due to
redemptions  or  exchanges,  amounts  to less  than  $500  for  that  Fund;  any
shareholder who makes a partial  redemption  which reduces his account in a Fund
to less than $500 would be subject to the Fund's  right to redeem such  account.
Prior to the  execution  of any  such  redemption,  notice  will be sent and the
shareholder  will be  allowed  60  days  from  the  date  of  notice  to make an
additional investment to meet the required minimum of $500 per Fund. However, no
such  redemption  would be  required  by a Fund if the cause of the low  account
balance was a reduction in the net asset value of Fund shares.


PERFORMANCE AND YIELD INFORMATION

     From time to time a Fund may publish its yield and/or  average annual total
return in advertisements and  communications to shareholders.  The current yield
for a Fund will be  calculated by dividing the net  investment  income per share
during a recent  30-day  period by the maximum  offering  price per share of the
Fund on the  last  day of the  period.  The  results  are  compounded  on a bond
equivalent  (semi-annual)  basis and then  annualized.  A Fund's  average annual
total return is determined by computing the annual percentage change in value of
$1,000 invested at the public  offering price (i.e.,  net asset value per share)
for specified  periods ending with the most recent  calendar  quarter,  assuming
reinvestment of all dividends and distributions at net asset value.

     Investors should note that the investment  results of a Fund will fluctuate
over time,  and any  presentation  of a Fund's current yield or total return for
any  prior  period  should  not be  considered  as a  representation  of what an
investment  may earn or what an  investor's  yield or total return may be in any
future period. The reduction of fees or assumption of expenses by Wright,  WISDI
or Eaton Vance will result in a Fund's higher performance.


OTHER INFORMATION

    The Trust is a business trust established under  Massachusetts law and is an
open-end management  investment company. The Trust was established pursuant to a
Declaration  of Trust dated July 14, 1989, as amended and restated  December 20,
1989 and  further  amended  April 13, 
<PAGE>
1995 to  change  the name of the  Trust  from  EquiFund  - Wright  National
Fiduciary  Equity Funds to The Wright EquiFund Equity Trust.  The Trust consists
of nineteen SERIES. Each Fund's activities are supervised by the Trustees of the
Trust.

     Although  each Fund is offering  only its own  shares,  since the Funds use
this combined  Prospectus,  it is possible that a Fund might become liable for a
misstatement or omission in this Prospectus regarding another Fund. The Trustees
have considered this factor in approving the use of a combined Prospectus.

     The  Trust's  shares of  beneficial  interest  have no par value and may be
issued in two or more series or  "funds."  The  Trustees  are  empowered  by the
Declaration  of Trust and By-laws to change the name of any existing  series and
to create additional series without obtaining shareholder approval.  The Trust's
shares may be issued in an  unlimited  number by its  Trustees.  Each share of a
series represents an equal proportionate beneficial interest in that series and,
when issued and outstanding, the shares are fully paid and non-assessable by the
relevant series. Shareholders are entitled to one vote for each full share held.
Fractional  shares  may be voted in  proportion  to the  amount of the net asset
value of a series which they represent. Voting rights are not cumulative,  which
means that the holders of more than 50% of the shares voting for the election of
Trustees of the Trust can elect 100% of the  Trustees  and,  in such event,  the
holders of the  remaining  less than 50% of the shares voting on the matter will
not be able to elect any  Trustees.  As of September 15, 1995,  Resources  Trust
Co., P.O. Box 3865, Englewood,  CO was the record holder of 94.4%, 97.3%, 97.3%,
59.4%, 56.3%, 70.4%, 71.0% and 78.6%, respectively, of the outstanding shares of
the Belgium/Luxembourg, Britain, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, Netherlands, Nordic,
and Switzerland Funds held on behalf of its clients; Charles Schwab & Co., Inc.,
101 Montgomery Street,  San Francisco,  CA was the record holder of 60.5%, 25.1%
and 39.8%,  respectively,  of the  outstanding  shares of the  Italy,  Japan and
Mexico  Funds held on behalf of its  clients;  and First Trust  Corp.,  P.O. Box
17376,  Denver,  CO, was the record holder of 42.7% of the outstanding shares of
the Spain Fund held on behalf of its clients. Shares will be voted by individual
series except to the extent  required by the 1940 Act. Shares have no preemptive
or conversion rights and are freely transferable.  Upon liquidation of a series,
shareholders  are  entitled  to share pro rata in the net assets of that  series
available for  distribution  to  shareholders,  and in any general assets of the
Trust not allocated to a particular series by the Trustees.

     As permitted by  Massachusetts  law,  there will normally be no meetings of
shareholders for the purpose of electing  Trustees unless and until such time as
less than a  majority  of the  Trustees  holding  office  have been  elected  by
shareholders.  In  such  an  event  the  Trustees  then in  office  will  call a
shareholders'  meeting for the  election of Trustees.  Except for the  foregoing
circumstances  and unless  removed by action of the  shareholders  in accordance
with the Trust's  By-laws,  the Trustees  shall  continue to hold office and may
appoint successor Trustees.  The Trustees shall only be liable in cases of their
willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of their
duties.
<PAGE>

     The  Trust's  By-laws  provide  that no person  shall serve as a Trustee if
shareholders  holding two-thirds of the outstanding shares have removed him from
that office either by a written  declaration filed with the Trust's custodian or
by votes cast at a meeting called for that purpose.  The Trustees shall promptly
call a meeting of the  shareholders for the purpose of voting upon a question of
removal of a Trustee when  requested so to do by the record  holders of not less
than 10% of the Trust's outstanding shares.




TAX-SHELTERED RETIREMENT PLANS


     The Funds may be suitable  investments  for Individual  Retirement  Account
Plans for individuals and their non-employed spouses, Pension and Profit Sharing
Plans for self-employed individuals,  corporations and non-profit organizations,
or 401(k) tax-sheltered retirement plans. The minimum initial purchase of $1,000
per Fund may be waived for investments by 401(k) plans.

                                  APPENDIX
                      -----------------------------------
                       INFORMATION CONCERNING THE NATIONS
                         IN WHICH THE FUNDS WILL INVEST



     The Funds  (other than the United  States  Fund) will invest in  securities
quoted or  denominated  in the  currencies  of  countries  other than the United
States. The following  summaries are designed to provide a general discussion of
economic and other  conditions in each of these  countries.  The  information in
these  summaries  has been  derived  from  sources  that  Wright  believes to be
reliable, but the data has not been independently verified.

     International investments,  like many things, have both benefits and risks.
The benefits are real and can be quite  substantial.  One of the key benefits is
diversification,  as the correlation among  international  securities tend to be
much lower than the  correlation  among  securities  within any single  country.
There are also risks to be  considered.  Investors in any single  country should
understand  the economic  potential of  investments in such a country as well as
the relationship of the currency of that country to the investor's own currency.
Several other items must be considered by the investor including the reliability
of  information   about  the  various   companies  within  the  country,   legal
restrictions,  and the  economic and social  characteristics  that are unique to
each  country.  See Appendix B in the Statement of  Additional  Information  for
additional economic and financial information about countries in which the Funds
may invest.  The Wright  EquiFunds limit their  investment  consideration to the
world's   major   industrialized   nations  and  to  those   nations  for  which
WORLDSCOPE(R),  the information database of Wright Investors' Service,  provides
comprehensive and reliable  investment  information.  Wright Investors'  Service
believes that  WORLDSCOPE(R)  has counteracted  the lack of quality  information
which has been a major problem for the international investor.


                     POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC CONSIDERATIONS


     Potential  international  investors must be aware of political and economic
actions which might change the investment environment.  For example, the members
of the European Union (EU) (successor to the European Communities EC, the Common
Market),  which is the designation of three organizations (the European Economic
Community or EEC, the European Coal and Steel Community, and the European Atomic
Energy  Community)  with common  membership  and,  since July of 1967,  a common
executive, have agreed that a single European market will remove all barriers to
free trade and free  movement  of capital  and  people.  The effect of  European
unification
 <PAGE>
 will be to create a major economic  trading unit composed of the entire fifteen
members of the EU (Austria,  Belgium,  Denmark,  Finland, France, Germany, Great
Britain, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg,  Netherlands,  Portugal, Spain, and
Sweden).  The  macroeconomic  effects of such unification could be substantially
higher economic growth. Economies of scale and lower costs could lead to reduced
inflation while fiscal reform and budget  restraint might reduce budget deficits
despite an initial  higher rate of  unemployment.  It is not possible to predict
the precise impact of European unity or if all the program goals incorporated in
the Maastricht  Treaty of 1991 will be achieved.  However,  Wright believes that
European economic integration  offering substantial  long-term economic benefits
to the member nations will ultimately come to pass.

     The European Currency Unit (ECU) is the official accounting unit of the EEC
and, as such, is used by member nations for budgetary purposes in setting common
agricultural  prices  and in the  accounts  of the  EU  institutions  since  the
implementation of the European Monetary System (EMS) in March of 1979. The major
aim of the EMS is to achieve close monetary and economic  cooperation  among the
member  countries  of the EU and,  in  particular,  to create a zone of monetary
stability.  The ECU is an  open-basket  currency  whose  value  is  based on the
weighted  value of the member  currencies  with weights  based on each  member's
share of intra-Europe trade and the relative size of its GDP. Each member nation
values its currency in terms of the ECU.  Nine of the member  currencies  (Dutch
guilder,  German mark,  Austrian  schilling,  Belgian franc,  Portuguese escudo,
Danish prone, French franc, Irish punt and Spanish peseta) form the EMS grid. If
an EMS grid  member's  currency  deviates  more than 15% (2.25% for the mark and
guilder) of the agreed central rates against the other members of the mechanism,
the member nation must take steps to correct the problem or to either devalue or
revalue its currency.  Following the currency turmoil of 1992, Great Britain and
Italy withdrew from the EMS's exchange Rate mechanism  effectively devaluing the
pound and the lira.  They have remained  outside the EMS but continue to measure
the value of their currency against the EMS grid. Spain and Italy devalued their
currency against the EMS grid in March of 1995.

     The "official ECU" is used between European monetary  authorities to settle
debts  they incur with one  another  as a result of their  interventions  in the
currency  markets.  There is also a private or commercial  ECU, the use of which
has increased  substantially over the last few years. Its stature increased with
the issue of the  first  Euro-ECU  bonds in 1981,  and it is now one of the most
widely used currencies for international  bond issuance.  The ECU enjoys greater
popularity  than was envisioned at its inception in 1979. It is known far beyond
Europe as a currency unit freely  convertible into all major  currencies.  It is
widely  used to price,  invoice,  and settle  transactions  involving  goods and
services.  Thousands of Europeans now use ECU's to buy cars,  pay hotel bills or
transact  other  business on ECU credit  cards and on  ECU-denominated  checking
accounts or travelers checks.

     There are other  examples of  political  and  economic  events,  some quite
dramatic, which impact the investment environment. In the past decade, there has
been  world-wide  movement  towards  "privatization"  of  government  owned  and
operated  companies.  Examples  include the water companies 
 <PAGE>
in the Great Britain, the banks in France, etc. The economies of Austria and
Portugal are especially expected to benefit from privatization in the 
coming years.

     Recent dramatic  developments in the former Soviet Union,  the Eastern Bloc
nations,  China,  Central  America,  and South  Africa can be expected to have a
major, but as yet not fully predictable,  impact on the world in general and the
nations in which the Fund will  invest in  particular.  It remains to be seen if
the  fledgling   democracies  can  successfully  cope  with  the  many  economic
dislocations  which have  accompanied the fall of the old order. It also remains
to be seen what  reactions  other  nations  will have  towards a reduced  Soviet
military threat and potential for increased trade.

     The  dismantling of the Berlin Wall in November of 1989 led to the economic
unification of the economically  weak East Germany with the economically  strong
West Germany in July 1990.  This was followed by the  political  unification  on
October 3, 1990.

     The European Free Trade Association (EFTA) consisting of Austria,  Iceland,
Norway,  Portugal,  Sweden, and Switzerland with associated member Finland,  was
created in January of 1960 with the objective to gradually reduce customs duties
and  quantitative  restrictions  between  members on  industrial  products.  All
tariffs  and  quotas  were  eliminated  by  year-end  1966.  EFTA  entered  into
free-trade  agreements  with the EU in  January  of 1973.  Trade  barriers  were
removed by July 1976.  EFTA is  expected to expand to include  Central  European
countries.  The  world-wide  trade  movement  towards  increasingly  Free Market
economies has been helped by the  establishment of the World Trade  Organization
(WTO) successor to GATT.


     Members of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) (Belgium,  Canada,
Denmark, France, Great Britain, Iceland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway,
Portugal,  the United  States,  Greece,  Turkey,  Germany,  and Spain) agreed to
settle disputes by peaceful means, to develop individual and collective capacity
to resist armed attack, and to regard an attack on one as an attack on all. With
the demise of the former Warsaw Pact nations of the communist  world,  political
tensions in Europe appear to have materially eased.


     The  Organization  for  Economic  Cooperation  and  Development  (OECD) was
established  in  September  of 1961 to promote  economic  and social  welfare in
member countries and to stimulate and harmonize  efforts on behalf of developing
nations. The OECD collects and disseminates from its Paris headquarters economic
and  environmental  information  to  members  which  represent  nearly  all  the
industrialized  "free market"  countries:  Australia,  Austria,  Belgium,  Great
Britain, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg,  Netherlands,  New Zealand,
Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, the United States and with
Yugoslavia as an associate member.

                       RESTRICTIONS ON FOREIGN INVESTMENT


     Another  issue  which  must  be  addressed  by  global   investors  is  the
possibility of investment  restrictions.  Some countries impose  restrictions on
foreigners  investing in their country.  These restrictions may limit the amount
of foreign  investment  or in some cases create a separate  class of  securities
which may be purchased by foreigner  investors at a different price from similar
securities  purchased by domestic  investment.  The countries in which the Funds
will invest do not impose restrictions on portfolio  investments although Sweden
and  Switzerland do have two classes of shares (see below) while Italy,  Sweden,
and Japan do have some  special  regulations  which the Fund must  comply  with.
Other potential  pitfalls to foreign  investment include high transaction costs,
including   brokerage   fees,   stock  turnover  taxes,   exchange  rates,   and
miscellaneous  costs.  These vary widely by type of  investment  and by country.
Consideration  must also be given to  withholding  taxes.  Most  countries  levy
non-refundable  withholding  taxes on interest  and  dividend  income  earned by
non-residents on domestic investments. The withholding tax rates disclosed below
are subject to changes.  While the existence of reciprocal tax treaties  between
many  countries  may to some extent  mitigate  that  impact,  such  treaties are
frequently not available to institutions  such as open-ended  mutual funds. Note
that unlike in the U.S. and Canada, where dividends are geneally paid quarterly,
dividends in most nations are paid only once (annually) or twice (semi-annually)
a year.  Liquidity  or the  ability  of an  investor  to  dispose  of his or her
holdings  quickly at a  reasonable  cost may be a special  concern  with foreign
investments. Sometimes there may be difficulties involved in selling instruments
in those  countries where  secondary  markets are not broad or actively  traded.
Political or sovereign risk is still another  concern.  This addresses the issue
of whether the  government  may take action  which would  reduce the value of an
investor's  assets. The industrial nations involved with the Funds are basically
stable and, except as noted under Political and Economic  Considerations  above,
it is not believed that there would be a  significant  change due to an election
or revolution. However, one nation, Hong Kong, will be taken over by the Chinese
government  in 1997 and there is  considerable  uncertainty  as to the impact of
such a takeover.

     The size of the  markets  is  another  concern.  In  December  of 1994,  FT
Actuaries/Goldman  Sachs  calculated the world equity market at some U.S. $9,186
billion. This market is dominated by the U.S. ($3,296 billion) and Japan ($2,747
billion).  Other nations of significant size include Switzerland ($225 billion),
Italy ($133  billion),  France ($330 billion),  Canada ($148  billion),  Germany
($339 billion),  and Great Britain ($905 billion). In 1991, world equity markets
posted sharp advances  despite concerns about the U.S.  deficit,  world debt and
recession in a good part of the world.  In 1994, the Financial  Times  Actuaries
World  Index,  which is composed  of around  2,200  securities  from 24 nations,
posted a total return of 5.8% in 1994 in terms of U.S. dollars. The FT-Actuaries
World Index showed a total return of 19.8% for 1993  following a 5.1% decline in
1992.  Following  is a  table  summarizing  the  market  capital,  total  return
performance, price/earnings ratios and normal settlement time.

                                COUNTRY SUMMARIES
                            ------------------------
AUSTRALIA is located  southeast of Asia. The Indian Ocean is west and south, the
Pacific  Ocean is east.  The  population,  which is growing  at 1.5% a year,  is
estimated  to be 18 million  with a density of 6 people per square  mile.  Major
cities are  Sydney,  Melbourne,  Brisbane,  Adelaide,  and Perth.  Iron,  steel,
textiles,  electrical equipment,  chemicals,  autos, aircraft, ships, machinery,
cattle, and wool are the chief industries. The currency is the Australian dollar
(December  1994: AUD 1.29 = $1 U.S).  The Gross  Domestic  Product was U.S. $281
billion in 1993,  or about  $15,911 per capita.  The 1994 current  account trade
balance is estimated to have been  negative $13 billion.  According to the OECD,
real GDP growth was around 4.3% in 1994 and should  average around 4.0% per year
in 1995-96.
     Australia  is a major  power in the  Southeast  Pacific  with close ties to
Japan and  Southeast  Asia.  It is an important  agricultural  nation and is the
world's primary wool producer. There are seven stock exchanges in Australia with
the major ones being the Australian Stock Exchange and the Sydney Stock Exchange
both based in Sydney; Adelaide, Brisbane, Hobart, Melbourne and Perth. Dividends
on  Australian  shares are usually paid  semi-annually.  Companies  occasionally
issue  bonus  shares  which,  since they are issued  without  any  corresponding
capital inflow, automatically dilute shareholders' value. However,  shareholders
wealth is  unaffected  and, as the dividend  rate is usually  maintained  on the
increased number of shares, a bonus issue effectively results in the increase of
the dividend return. Australia has always relied on foreign capital to assist in
financing economic development. Foreigners are free to invest in most sectors of
the economy.  Exchange controls were, for the most part, abolished at the end of
1983.  Those that remain are essentially  designed to combat  international  tax
avoidance.
     Dividends  are exempt from  withholding  tax to the extent they  qualify as
franked  dividends.  In general,  dividends  are franked if they are paid out of
profits  that have borne  corporate  income tax at the full rate of 39%.  If the
dividends are unfranked, a final withholding tax of 30% is levied.

AUSTRIA  is located in  southcentral  Europe.  Its  neighbors  are  Switzerland,
Liechtenstein,  Germany,  Czechoslovakia,  Hungary,  Yugoslavia  and Italy.  The
population is estimated to be 8 million. Major cities are Vienna, Graz and Linz.
Steel,  machinery,  autos,  electrical and optical equipment,  glassware,  sport
goods,  paper,  textiles,  chemicals  and cement are the chief  industries.  The
currency  is the  Schilling  (December  1994:  ATS 11.10 = $1  U.S.).  The Gross
Domestic  Product was $190 billion in 1993,  or $23,750 per capita.  Agriculture
makes up 3% of the GDP, the  industrial  section 38% and the service sector 59%.
Defense  spending is 1.2% of the GDP while  education  spending equals 6.0%. The
1993 current account trade balance was negative $926 million. Austria joined the
European Union in 1994.
     The  relatively  small size of  Austria's  securities  markets  may make it
difficult for the Austrian National Fiduciary Equity Fund to effect purchases or
sales of  portfolio  securities  without  causing an increase or decrease in the
market price of such securities.  The trading activities of competing investment
companies  may also have an adverse  effect on  securities  prices or reduce the
availability of securities  appropriate  for inclusion in the Fund's  portfolio.
Frequently,  trading in Austria is 
<PAGE>
accomplished   "off-exchange"   through  banks  which  may  also  serve  as
broker/dealers and investment advisers.  Since these banks may simultaneously be
dealing for their own account or the account of clients in such instances,  such
"off-exchange" trading could involve conflicts of interest.
     Austria  produces  most  of its  food as well  as an  array  of  industrial
products.  Historically,  a large  part of the  economy is  controlled  by state
enterprises but this is changing  through the increasing  privatization  of such
enterprises.  The rate of non-refundable  dividend  withholding tax is currently
20%.

BELGIUM is located in  northwest  Europe on the North  Sea.  The  population  is
estimated to be 10 million. There are two main ethnic groups. The Dutch-speaking
Flemish make up about 60% of the population located in the north and west of the
country; and the French-speaking  Walloons account for the remaining 40% and are
located to the south and east.  The  divisions  between these two groups are not
only linguistic but also economic,  social and cultural.  Brussels is officially
bi-lingual,  and English and German are widely used for business purposes and by
visitors. Major cities are Brussels, Antwerp, Ghent, Charleroi and Liege. Steel,
glassware, diamond cutting, textiles and chemicals are the chief industries. The
currency is the Belgian Franc  (December  1994: BEF 31.83 = $1 U.S.).  The Gross
Domestic  Product was $218  billion in 1992,  or $21,750  per  capita.  The 1993
current account trade balance was positive $7.4 billion.  Belgium is a member of
the European Union.
     Exchange   control  is  mainly  concerned  that  settlements  with  foreign
countries  are made  through  the  appropriate  exchange  market.  There are, in
general,  no restrictions on portfolio  investments.  The rate of non-refundable
dividend withholding tax is currently 25%.

CANADA,  the  world's  second  largest  country,  is located  in North  America,
southward from the North Pole to the U.S. border. The population is estimated to
be 27 million.  Canada is divided into ten provinces and two territories.  It is
an urban  society with most of the  principal  cities  located close to the U.S.
border. Both English and French are official languages,  but French predominates
in the  Province  of Quebec  where it is the  official  working  language  while
English is used  throughout the rest of the country.  Major cities are Montreal,
Toronto, Vancouver, Ottawa-Hull,  Edmonton, Calgary, and Quebec. Mining, oil and
gas,  paper  and  forest  products,  consumer  products,   industrial  products,
chemicals,   real   estate,   construction,    transportation,    finance,   and
communications  are the chief  industries.  The currency is the Canadian  dollar
(December 1994: CAD 1.40 = $1 U.S.). The Gross Domestic Product was $539 billion
in 1993, or about $20,000 per capita. The 1993 current account trade balance was
negative $21.9 billion. Canada is a participant in the North American Free Trade
Agreement (NAFTA) along with the U.S.A. and Mexico.
     The market  value of equity  shares of  domestic  companies  on the Toronto
Exchange,  the largest of the five  exchanges,  on December  31, 1992 was around
$200 billion. There is also a large over the counter market run by approximately
200 broker/dealers and a few banks.  Dividends on common shares are usually paid
quarterly. Calgary, Winnipeg, Montreal, and Vancouver also have stock exchanges.
Canada has no  restrictions on foreign  exchange.  The  non-refundable  dividend
withholding tax rate is currently 25%.
 <PAGE>

DENMARK is located in northern Europe, separating the North and Baltic Seas. The
population is estimated to be around 5 million.  Major cities are Copenhagen and
Arhus.  Machinery,  textiles,  furniture,  electronics  and  dairy are the chief
industries.  The  currency is the Danish  Krone  (December  1994:  DKK 6.09 = $1
U.S.).  The Gross  Domestic  Product was $128 billion in 1993, or around $25,800
per capita. The 1993 current account trade balance was positive $4.5 billion.
Denmark is a member of the European Union.
     There are no  restrictions  on portfolio  investments.  The  non-refundable
dividend withholding tax rate is currently 30%.

FINLAND is located in northern  Europe.  Its  neighbors  are Norway,  Sweden and
Russia. The population is estimated to be 5 million.  Major cities are Helsinki,
Tampere and Turku.  Machinery,  metal, ship building,  textiles and clothing are
the chief  industries.  The currency is the Finnish Markka  (December  1994: FIM
4.74 = $1 U.S.).  The Gross Domestic  Product was $101 billion in 1993, or about
$21,000 per capita.  The 1993 current  account  trade  balance was negative $820
million. Finland is a member of the European Union.
     Purchases of shares on the Helsinki Stock Exchange (the only Stock Exchange
in Finland)  or OTC (second  tier)  market are not subject to  restriction.  The
non-refundable dividend withholding tax rate is currently 25% to non-residents.

FRANCE,  the largest country in western Europe,  is located between the Atlantic
Ocean and the  Mediterranean  Sea. The population is estimated to be 57 million.
Major cities are Paris,  Marseille,  Toulousek  Nice,  Nantes,  Strasbourg,  and
Bourdeaux.  Steel,  chemicals,  autos,  textiles,  wine,  perfume,  aircraft and
electronic equipment are the chief industries.  The currency is the French Franc
(December  1994:  FRF 5.35 = $1 U.S.).  The Gross  Domestic  Product  was $1,204
billion in 1993, or around  $22,000 per capita.  The 1993 current  account trade
balance was  negative $10  billion.  France is a member of the  European  Union.
Portfolio  investment is generally not restricted.  The non-refundable  dividend
withholding tax rate is currently 25%.

GERMANY is located in central  Europe  with  Denmark on the north,  Netherlands,
Belgium, Luxembourg and France on the west, Switzerland and Austria on the south
and Poland and Czechoslovakia to the east. The dismantling of the Berlin Wall in
November 1989 led to the economic  unification  of East and West Germany in July
of 1990.  Political  unification  followed on October 3, 1990. The population is
estimated to be 81 million. Major cities are Berlin, Munich,  Hamburg,  Cologne,
Frankfurt, Dortmund,  Dusseldorf,  Leipzig, Dresden and Stuttgart. Steel, ships,
autos, machinery,  coal and chemicals are the chief industries.  The currency is
the Deutschemark (December 1994: DEM 1.55 = $1 U.S.). The Gross Domestic Product
for Western Germany was $1,646 billion in 1993, or about $20,500 per capita.
Germany is a member of the European Union.
     Frankfurt is the largest of the eight stock  exchanges  in Germany,  and is
considered  the  center  of  trading  activity.  Hamburg  and  Munich  are  also
important, while Berlin, Dusseldorf, Hanover, Bremen, and Stuttgart are regional
exchanges  only.  The  equity  market  is  not  considered  to be an  especially
important  component of Germany's  capital markets since equity issues are not a
major
 <PAGE>
 source of financing for German  corporations.  The shares of approximately  600
companies are listed for trading on stock exchanges,  but perhaps only 100 or so
of these would be considered suitable for investor trading as many issues listed
are tightly controlled  private groups and banks.  Equity markets in Germany are
dominated by the German Banks and most brokerage is conducted  through the major
banks, all of which have seats on the major exchanges. There are two basic types
of German  companies:  Aktiengesellschaft  (AG) represents an independent  legal
entity formed by Articles of Incorporation. AG shares are fully transferable and
eligible to be traded on German stock  exchanges.  They are normally  registered
unless the company  by-laws allow for bearer shares.  The second type of company
is Beschrankter (GmbH) which is similar to the AG, but the shares are not freely
transferrable  and cannot be traded on a stock exchange.  There are no portfolio
investment  restrictions.  The non-refundable  dividend  withholding tax rate is
currently 25%.

GREAT BRITAIN is the principal  port of the United  Kingdom of Great Britain and
Northern  Ireland,  located on an island off the  northwest  coast of Europe and
comprising of England,  Scotland and Wales. The population is estimated to be 58
million.  Major  cities  are  London,  Birmingham,  Glasgow,  Leeds,  Sheffield,
Manchester and  Edinburgh.  Steel,  metals,  vehicles,  shipbuilding,  shipping,
banking, insurance,  textiles,  chemicals,  electronics,  aircraft machinery and
distilling are the chief industries. The currency is the English Pound (December
1994: GBP 1 = $1.56 U.S.) The Gross  Domestic  Product was $983 billion in 1993,
or about $17,000 per capita. The 1993 current account trade balance was negative
$16 billion. The United Kingdom is a member of the European Union.
     The London Stock Exchange is the oldest and the largest  security  exchange
in Great Britain.  There are 13 provincial exchanges which, with London, make up
the  International  Stock  Exchange of the United  Kingdom  and the  Republic of
Ireland.  Most of the  securities  trading in Great  Britain  takes place on the
London Stock Exchange  although  trading  facilities are still maintained on the
floor of the  Provincial  exchanges.  The equity  markets in Great  Britain  are
considered  to be among the most highly  developed  in the World.  All  exchange
controls and  restrictions  were removed in 1979.  The  non-refundable  dividend
withholding tax rate is currently 25%.


HONG KONG, a Crown Colony, is located at the mouth of the Canton River in China,
90 miles south of Canton. The population is estimated to be 5.7 million. English
and  Cantonese  are the  languages  of  commerce.  Textiles,  apparel,  tourism,
shipbuilding,  iron and steel,  fishing,  cement and small manufacturers are the
chief industries.  The currency is the Hong Kong Dollar (December 1994: HKD 7.74
= $1 U.S.).  The Gross Domestic Product was estimated at $108.7 billion in 1993,
or about $19,094 per capita. The 1991 current account trade balance was positive
$2 billion.
     The  governments  of the United  Kingdom and the Peoples  Republic of China
(PRC) have entered into an agreement whereby  sovereignty over Hong Kong will be
restored  to  the  PRC  July  1,  1997.   Hong  Kong  will  then  be  a  special
administrative  region  with its own law for  another  fifty years (up to 2047).
There is considerable  uncertainty as to the impact of the Chinese takeover. It
<PAGE>
is possible that the Chinese  takeover will  accelerate the departure of capital
and productive individuals. Hong Kong developed from a trading zone into a major
manufacturing and financial center of world importance after the outbreak of the
Korean War. It has an excellent economic  infra-structure  with highly developed
international  communications,  and  transportation,  as  well as  local  roads,
subways and water  transportation.  However,  the influx of refugees  from other
Asian  countries  may strain  Hong  Kong's  economic  and social  resources  and
structure. The Colony's financial institutions have been reconstituted following
the 1987 world markets  crash and they have  successfully  withstood  subsequent
pressures.  The stock market crash of 1987 and  subsequent  arrest on corruption
charges of the chairman and several  other top  officials of the Hong Kong Stock
Exchange  precipitated  major reform including the establishment of the powerful
new Securities and Futures Commission which began operations in May of 1989. The
government  has taken the  position  that the  territory  must  steer a delicate
course between overregulation and underregulation.
     Hong Kong's  investment  and trade ties with the Peoples  Republic of China
are  significantly  increasing.  The PRC presently makes up about 38% of imports
into Hong Kong,  and re-exports  from the PRC  constitute a large  percentage of
Hong Kong's total exports.  It is to be expected that the Hong Kong stock market
will remain dependent upon prevailing  perceptions of political  developments in
China.   Foreign   enterprises  are  treated  virtually  the  same  as  domestic
enterprises and there are no  restrictions in exchange of foreign  currencies or
on the  repatriation of profits.  Import and export licenses are easy to obtain.
There are no exchange controls,  investment restrictions or dividend withholding
taxes.


THE  REPUBLIC OF IRELAND is the  western-most  nation of Europe,  located in the
Atlantic  Ocean just west of Britain.  Population  is  estimated at 3.6 million,
one-eighth of which live in the capital city of Dublin.  Important industries in
the national economy are food, textiles,  chemicals, brewing, machinery, tourism
and services.  The national  currency of Ireland is the Pound  (Punt),  which at
December 31, 1994, was valued at IP 0.65 = $1 U.S.  Gross  Domestic  Product was
U.S. $45 billion in 1993, or $12,600 per capita. The current account balance has
been running at a $2.5 billion  (annual rate) surplus in recent years.  The OECD
estimates that real GDP expanded 5.0% during 1994 and forecasts growth of around
4.5% in 1995 and 1996. No  withholding  tax is deducted  from dividend  payments
made by Irish companies. Ireland is a member of the European Union.

ITALY is located in southern  Europe,  jutting into the  Mediterranean  Sea. The
population is estimated to be 57 million.  Major cities are Rome, Milan,  Naples
and Turin. Steel, machinery, autos, textiles, shoes, machine tools and chemicals
are the chief  industries.  The currency is the Italian Lira (December 1994: ITL
1629 = $1 U.S.).  The Gross Domestic  Product was $884 billion in 1993, or about
$16,000 per capita.  The 1993  current  account  trade  balance was negative $11
billion. Italy is a member of the European Union.
     The Italian equity market is thin by North America and European  standards.
It used to be common for settlements of Italian  securities trades to be delayed
for as much as six months or to
 <PAGE>
fail  completely  as  a  result  of  obsolete   technology  and  cumbersome
settlement  procedures.  Settlements  are much  quicker now although the central
securities depository which has been in the planning phase for approximately ten
years is not yet operational and share certificates must physically change hands
every  three days (cash  deals) or at the end of the  monthly  account  which is
usually the last day of the month.  Investments in Italy by non-residents may be
made  through  capital  accounts  operated  by  authorized  banks and income and
capital may be repatriated  without  restriction  other than the  non-refundable
dividend withholding tax, which is currently at 32.4%.

JAPAN is located in the  Archipelago  off the east coast of Asia. The population
is estimated to be 124 million. Major cities are Tokyo, Yokohama, Osaka, Nagoya,
Kyoto, Sapporo and Kobe. Electrical and electronic equipment,  autos,  machinery
and  chemicals  are the chief  industries.  The  currency  is the  Japanese  Yen
(December  1994:  JPY 99.74 = $1 U.S.).  The Gross  Domestic  Product was $4,191
billion in 1993,  or about  $33,000 per capita.  The 1993 current  account trade
balance was positive $132 billion.
     The Tokyo Stock  Exchange is the largest of eight  exchanges in Japan which
has very well developed primary and secondary equity markets. The price/earnings
ratios for  Japanese  securities  have  recently  been much higher than  typical
price/earnings  ratios for U.S.  securities.  In 1989-92,  however, the Japanese
stock market was in a steady downtrend;  the Tokyo Stock Exchange lost more than
50% of its value in the four years  following its December 1989 peak. All equity
securities  business in Japan is conducted by security dealers.  They trade on a
typical broker basis on commission.  Japanese securities  companies may trade on
their own accounts,  but only to the extent  necessary for the  maintenance of a
fair and orderly market.  Broker basis trading  accounts for 70-75% of the value
of all stock trading. Portfolio investments of less than 10% are not restricted.
Dividends are currently  subject to a  non-refundable  20% dividend  withholding
tax.

LUXEMBOURG is located in western  Europe.  The population is estimated to be 0.4
million. The major city is Luxembourg.  Steel, chemicals,  beer, tires, tobacco,
metal  products,  cement and financial  services are the chief  industries.  The
currency  is the  Luxembourg  Franc which is  identical  in value to the Belgian
Franc (December 1994: LUF 31.84 = $1 U.S.).  French and German and Luxembourgish
(a mainly German dialect) are the official  languages and most Luxembourgers are
fluent in all three.  English is spoken by many Luxembourgers and is widely used
in  business.  The Gross  Domestic  Product  was $11  billion in 1992,  or about
$27,000 per capita. Luxembourg is a member of the European Union.
     There are no investment  restrictions.  A dividend  withholding  tax of 15%
does not apply to holding companies.

MEXICO is a nation of 91  million  people  located in the  southernmost  part of
North  America.  Its capital  city is Mexico City;  other large  cities  include
Guadalajara and Monterrey. The official language is Spanish; however, English is
commonly used for  international  business.  Steel,  chemicals,  electric goods,
textiles,  petroleum and tourism are important industries. The national currency
of Mexico is the Peso,  which was valued,  at December 31, 1993, at MP 3.11 = $1
U.S. but
 <PAGE> 
was devalued in 1994 so that at December 31, 1994, the value was
5.33 to the U.S. dollar. It further  depreciated in the first quarter of 1995 to
7.11/$.  Gross  Domestic  Product was U.S.  $327 billion in 1993,  or $3,650 per
capita.  The current  account  balance was U.S. $23 billion in deficit for 1993.
The OECD  estimates  that real GDP grew 2.9%  during 1994 and  forecasts  growth
rates of a little more than 4% in 1995 and in 1996.
     Mexico is a democratic  republic with a constitution.  It has a federal and
representative form of government. There are 31 states and one federal district.
The  President  is the  head of  government  and  chief  of  state.  It is still
considered  to  be  an  emerging  nation.   Although  the  ruling  Institutional
Revolutionary  Party (PRI) has been in power for more than 65 years,  the recent
relative  stability of the country is being  called into  question as the nation
struggles with the transition  from a controlled to a more open  democracy.  The
January 1995  uprising of a rebel Indian group in the southern  state of Chiapas
has still to be fully  resolved.  A new  political  scandal - the  arrest of the
brother of former president Salinas for orchestrating a political  assassination
- - has added to the uncertainty.
     As a consequence of the peso's  collapse,  the Mexican economy is likely to
experience high interest rates,  soaring inflation and no economic growth if not
an outright  decline in GDP. Over the long run, it is hoped that the devaluation
will increase the  attractiveness of Mexican exports,  stimulate economic growth
and reduce Mexico's dependence on short-term foreign investment.
     For all of 1994, the 40-stock Mexican IPC index declined 8.7% in pesos, but
the decline of the peso  against the dollar  resulted in a 42% decline in dollar
terms. For the first two months of 1995, the index declined an additional 35% in
pesos and 45% in dollars.
     When  dividends  are  distributed  out of the balance on the net tax profit
account, no tax is charged.  Dividends not distributed out of the balance on the
net tax  profit  account  are  subject  to a 35%  charge.  The tax is charged by
grossing up the dividend declared.  The balance on the net tax profit account is
computed  by adding the sum of net tax  profits  for each year to the  dividends
received from other resident  companies and then  subtracting the dividends paid
from the account.

NETHERLANDS is located in  northwestern  Europe on the North Sea. The population
is estimated to be 19 million.  Major cities are  Amsterdam,  Rotterdam & Hague.
Metals,  machinery,  chemicals, oil refinery,  diamond cutting,  electronics and
tourism are the chief  industries.  The language spoken is Dutch. Most people in
business also speak English.  The currency is the Dutch Guilder  (December 1994:
NLG 1.74 = $1 U.S.).  The Gross  Domestic  Product was $295 billion in 1993,  or
about $16,000 per capita. The 1993 current account trade balance was positive $9
billion. Netherlands is a member of the European Union.
     The Amsterdam  Stock  Exchange is the largest and all Dutch  securities are
listed on it. It is also the oldest stock  exchange in the world and perhaps the
only  one  that  charges  itself  with  the  primary  obligation  of  protecting
shareholders.  However,  the Dutch  equity  market  although  growing in trading
volume has not been  particularly  active.  Domestic  participation is primarily
institutional  with  perhaps  only about 10 to 15  percent  of Dutch  households
owning  equity  shares.  Dutch  pension  funds are also limited to having 3 to 5
percent of their assets in equities and Dutch banks are prohibited  from holding
shares for more than five years. There are no portfolio investment restrictions.
There is a  non-refundable  dividend  withholding  tax which is currently set at
25%.
 <PAGE>

NEW ZEALAND is mainly  comprised of two islands in the southwest  Pacific Ocean.
The population is estimated to be 3.5 million.  Major cities include Wellington,
Auckland,   Christchurch  and  Manakau.  Food  processing,   fishing,   textiles
(especially   wool-related),   forest  products  and  machinery  are  the  chief
industries. The currency is the New Zealand Dollar (December 1994: NZD 1.56 = $1
U.S.).  The Gross Domestic  Product was U.S.$45  billion in 1993, or $13,000 per
capita. The current account trade balance was $932 million in 1993.
     There are no investment  restrictions unless 25% of the shares of a company
are  purchased.  The  rate of the  non-refundable  dividend  withholding  tax is
currently 30%.

NORWAY  occupies  the western  part of the  Scandinavian  Peninsula in northwest
Europe. The population is estimated to be 4.3 million. Major cities are Oslo and
Bergen.  Engineering,   metals,  chemicals,  food  processing,  fishing,  paper,
shipbuilding  and oil and gas are the  chief  industries.  The  currency  is the
Norwegian Kronor (December 1994: NOK 6.76 = $1 U.S.). The Gross Domestic Product
was $97 billion in 1993, or about $23,000 per capita.  The 1993 current  account
trade balance was positive $2 billion.
     No  exchange  control  restrictions  apply  to  portfolio   investments  by
foreigners  in quoted  companies  although  consent of the Bank of Norway may be
required to purchase  more than a specified  percentage  of a company  that owns
Norwegian  real estate.  The  non-refundable  dividend  withholding  tax rate is
currently 25%.

SPAIN is located in  southwestern  Europe.  The population is estimated to be 39
million. Major cities are Madrid,  Barcelona,  Valencia and Seville.  Machinery,
steel, textiles, shoes, autos and processed foods are the chief industries.  The
currency is the Peseta (December 1994: ESP 131.74 = $1 U.S.). The Gross Domestic
Product was $428 billion in 1993, or about $11,000 per capita.  The 1993 current
account trade balance was negative $4 billion.
     Spain does have some  exchange  controls  although  they have recently been
liberalized and further  liberalization is expected as a result of Spain joining
the EU in January of 1986.  Permission may be required for some transactions but
the  ability to  approve  such  transaction  has been  delegated  to a number of
commercial banks who can both approve and handle the transactions. A few sectors
of the economy are subject to specific restrictions, including national defense,
mass  media,  and air  transportation.  Foreigners  may freely  invest in shares
listed on Spanish Stock Exchanges.  The non-refundable  dividend withholding tax
rate is currently 20%.


SWEDEN  is  located  on the  Scandinavian  Peninsula  in  Northern  Europe.  The
population is estimated to be 8.8 million. Major cities are Stockholm,  Goteborg
and Malmo. Steel,  machinery,  instruments,  autos,  shipbuilding,  shipping and
paper are the chief  industries.  The  currency is the Swedish  Krona  (December
1994: SEK 7.46 = $1 U.S.),  The Gross Domestic Product was $174 billion in 1993,
or about $20,000 per capita. The 1993 current account trade balance was negative
$4 billion. Sweden is a member of the European Union.
     Swedish  companies  by-laws  frequently  contain a stipulation  restricting
foreign ownership to less than 40% of the share capital and less than 20% of the
voting power in the company, a rule which cannot normally be changed without the
government's  consent.  Shares which may be
<PAGE>
acquired by  foreigners  are called free  shares and are so  designated  on
shares certificates. A Swedish company without such a stipulation in its by-laws
is regarded as "foreign" and is subject to restrictions  on foreign  acquisition
of real estate and natural  resources,  or even from  acquiring more than 20% of
the voting rights of any other company.  Foreigners may deal without restriction
in the free shares on the Stockholm Stock Exchange,  provided they do not exceed
10% of the share  capital or voting  power.  The "free share  market" may behave
quite   differently   from  other   markets.   This  may  be  due  to   cultural
characteristics  of the Swedish  shareholders or the fact that foreigners in the
"free  market"  can sell their  shares and move into other  markets  whereas the
Swedes are seldom able to get  permission to invest abroad.  The  non-refundable
dividend withholding tax rate is currently 30%.

SWITZERLAND  is  located in the Alps  Mountains  in Europe.  The  population  is
estimated to be 6.9 million.  Switzerland has four national  languages:  German,
French,  Italian,  and Romansh.  Romansh is found on all Swiss bank notes. About
two thirds of the population  speak a German dialect known as  Schweizerdeutsch.
English is the most widely used foreign language in Swiss business. Major cities
are Zurich,  Basel and Geneva.  Machinery,  machine tools,  steel,  instruments,
watches, textiles, foodstuffs (cheese, chocolate), chemicals, drugs, banking and
tourism are the chief  industries.  The  currency  is the Swiss Franc  (December
1994: CHF 1.31 - $1 U.S.).  The Gross Domestic Product was $231 billion in 1993,
or about $34,000 per capita. The 1991 current account trade balance was positive
$17 billion.
     Zurich  Exchange  is one of the  largest  in the world in terms of  volume.
Switzerland's  equity markets also include  organized  stock exchanges of Basel,
Geneva,  Bern and  Lausanne as well as the over the counter  market.  Trading is
active although the exchanges are relatively small by  international  standards.
Ordinary  shares,  participation  certificates,  warrants  and mutual  funds are
traded  on Swiss  secondary  markets.  Swiss  common  shares  must be  carefully
distinguished  by type since most Swiss companies do not allow  non-residents to
own Swiss registered  shares.  The types of shares are: Bearer - ordinary shares
which are fully  voting  common  shares with full right to  dividends  and which
typically  sell for 25 percent  premium  over  registered  shares;  Registered -
ordinary  shares  which are a fully  voting  common  shares with full rights and
dividends  (in  November of 1988,  Nestle  broke the  tradition  of  prohibiting
non-residents  from owning  registered shares and became the first Swiss company
to allow foreign ownership of registered  shares) and Participation and Dividend
Right  Certifications  which are equity  securities with full right to dividends
but  no  voting  rights.   Participation   Certifications  are  otherwise  fully
participating  with common  shares and can be  purchased by  non-residents.  The
non-refundable dividend withholding tax rate is currently 35%.

UNITED STATES is a nation of 259 million people  located in North  America.  The
U.S. economy is the world's largest,  with 1994 Gross Domestic Product estimated
at $6.7 trillion or $25,900 per capita.  The nation's current account deficit is
estimated  at about $170  billion for 1994.  Real GDP  advanced by just under 4%
during 1994 and according to the OECD, the growth rate is likely to be around 3%
in 1995 before tapering off to around a 2.0% annual rate by the end of 1996.
There is no withholding on dividends paid to the Fund.

GENERAL INFORMATION AND HISTORY


     The Wright  EquiFund  Equity Trust (the "Trust") is an open-end  management
investment company, or mutual fund, organized as a Massachusetts  business trust
in 1989.  The Trust  currently  consists of nineteen  series. The Funds (each a
"Wright  EquiFund" and  collectively  the "Wright  EquiFunds") each represent a
separate and distinct series of the Trust's shares of beneficial interest. Each
Fund is a diversified fund.

 * As of the date of this Statement of Additional  Information,  these Funds
   are not available for purchase in any state of the United  States.  Contact
   the principal underwriter or your broker for the latest information.


     Unless otherwise required by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended
(the "1940  Act"),  ordinarily  it will not be  necessary  for the Trust to hold
annual meetings of shareholders. As a result, shareholders may not consider each
year the election of Trustees or the  appointment  of  independent  accountants.
Shareholders may remove a Trustee by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds
of the Trust's  outstanding shares and the Trustees must promptly call a meeting
for such purpose when requested to do so in writing by the record holders of not
less than 10% of the outstanding  shares of the Trust.  Shareholders  may, under
certain  circumstances,  communicate with other  shareholders in connection with
requesting a special meeting of  shareholders.  The Board of Trustees,  however,
will call a special  meeting  for the purpose of  electing  Trustees  if, at any
time,  less than a majority of Trustees  holding office at the time were elected
by shareholders.

     The Trust's  Declaration of Trust may be amended with the affirmative  vote
of a majority of the  outstanding  shares of the Trust or, if the interests of a
particular Wright EquiFund are affected,  a majority of such Fund's  outstanding
shares.  The Trust may be terminated  (i) upon the sale of the Trust's assets to
another open-end  management  investment  company, if approved by the holders of
two-thirds of the outstanding  shares of the Trust,  except that if the Trustees
of the  Trust  recommend  such sale of  assets,  the  approval  by the vote of a
majority of the Trust's  outstanding  shares  will be  sufficient;  or (ii) upon
liquidation  and  distribution  of the assets of the  Trust,  if  approved  by a
majority of its Trustees or by the vote of a majority of the Trust's outstanding
shares. If not so terminated, the Trust may continue indefinitely.

     The Trust's Declaration of Trust further provides that the Trust's Trustees
will not be liable for errors of judgment  or mistakes of fact or law;  however,
nothing in the  Declaration of Trust protects a Trustee against any liability to
which he would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith,
gross negligence, or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of
his office.
<PAGE>

     The Trust is an organization of the type commonly known as a "Massachusetts
business  trust." Under  Massachusetts  law,  shareholders  of such a trust may,
under  certain  circumstances,  be held  personally  liable as partners  for the
obligations of the trust.  The Trust's  Declaration of Trust contains an express
disclaimer of shareholder liability in connection with the Trust property or the
acts,  obligations  or  affairs  of the  Trust.  The  Declaration  of Trust also
provides for  indemnification  out of the Trust property of any shareholder held
personally  liable for the claims and  liabilities  to which a  shareholder  may
become subject by reason of being or having been a  shareholder.  Thus, the risk
of a shareholder incurring financial loss on account of shareholder liability is
limited to  circumstances  in which the Trust itself would be unable to meet its
obligations.

     Each Fund has retained The Winthrop  Corporation,  doing business under the
name  Wright  Investors'  Service,  Bridgeport,  Connecticut  ("Wright"  or  the
"Investment  Adviser"),  as  investment  adviser  to carry  out the  management,
investment  and  reinvestment  of its assets.  Each Fund has also retained Eaton
Vance Management  ("Eaton  Vance"),  24 Federal Street,  Boston,  Massachusetts,
02110, as administrator of its business affairs.


INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

     Each Fund seeks to enhance total  investment  return  (consisting  of price
appreciation  plus income) by investing in a broadly  based  portfolio of equity
securities selected by the Investment Adviser from the publicly traded companies
in the  National  Equity  Index for the  nation or nations in which each Fund is
permitted to invest.  Only securities for which adequate  public  information is
available and which could be considered  acceptable  for investment by a prudent
person  will  comprise  the  National  Equity  Index.  The  selection  of equity
securities  for the  National  Equity  Index  relating to each Fund is described
below. Each Fund's net asset value is expressed in U.S. dollars and fluctuations
in foreign  exchange  currency rates will affect the value of an investment in a
Fund.


THE NATIONAL EQUITY INDICES

     The National  Equity  Indices (the  "Indices")  are each  designed to be an
index of substantially  all the publicly traded equity  securities in the nation
or nations in which each  respective  Fund is permitted to invest which meet the
requirements of a prudent investor.  The prudent investor standard requires that
care,  skill,  and caution be used in selecting  securities for investment.  The
Investment Adviser will select securities for investment for each Fund only from
those included in the corresponding Index, or in the case of International Fund,
from those included in all the Indices except the United States  National Equity
Index or in the case of Global  Fund,  from those  included  in all the  Indices
including the United States National Equity Index.

     Wright has  developed  disciplined  objective  criteria  to ensure that the
required care,  skill, and caution are used in selecting  securities for each of
the Indices.

     Wright  generally considers for inclusion in an Index only those companies
which have at least:

      1. Five years of audited operating information;
      2. An established minimum amount in both book value and market value; and
      3. A three-year record of pricing in a public market.

     In  addition,  only  companies  that meet the  following  criteria  will be
included in an Index:

      1. A significant portion of the shares of the company is believed to be
          publicly owned;
      2. The company has had positive  earnings for the last fiscal or calendar
          year, or for the last twelve months, or cumulatively for the last
          three years; and
      3. The company is not a closed-end investment company or a non-bank 
          securities broker or dealer.
<PAGE>

     In selecting securities for the Indices and for inclusion in the portfolios
of  the  Funds,   other  than  the  United  States  Fund,  Wright  utilizes  its
international  database,  which includes  WORLDSCOPE(R).  WORLDSCOPE(R) provides
more than 1,500 items of  information on more than 12,000  companies  worldwide.
Except for the United States,  Wright  utilizes the services of major  financial
institutions  that are located in the nations in which the respective  Funds are
permitted  to  invest to supply  Wright  with  research  products  and  services
including reports on particular  industries and companies,  economic surveys and
analysis  of the  investment  environment  and  trends in a  particular  nation,
recommendations as to whether specific securities should be included in an Index
and other assistance in the performance of its decision-making responsibilities.
Currently,  Wright expects to utilize several major  international  banks in the
above-mentioned  capacity.  The Indices are  adjusted  as  necessary  to reflect
recent  events.  A detailed  explanation  of the objective  criteria used in the
selection process is as follows.

     To be selected for an Index, a company must have:

         1.   Five years of earnings data (17 quarters of 12 month earnings). To
              be selected, a company's  trailing 12 month  earnings  during the
              last  four  quarters or  during  the last  three  reported  years
              cumulatively must be positive.

         2.   Five years of dividend information or positive verification that a
              company  did not  declare a dividend (20  quarters  of  quarterly
              dividend information).

         3.   Three  years  of  price  information (12  quarters  of  quarterly
              prices).  To be  selected,  a company generally  must have market
              value  (number of shares times price)equal to or greater than $20
              million. Once a company is selected, its market value must be less
              than $15 million for the company's securities to be removed from
              the relevant Index.

         4.   Book value  information for the past five years (20 quarters). To
              be  selected, book  value  must be equal to or  greater  than $20
              million. Once a company is selected,  its book value must be less
              than $15 million for the  company's securities to be removed from
              the relevant Index.

         5.   Industry   group   information.  Companies  that  are  closed-end
              investment  companies,  real estate investment trusts or non-bank
              securities brokers or dealers will not be included.

     Acquired  companies may continue to be included in the relevant Index up to
their acquisition date.



OTHER INVESTMENT POLICIES OF THE FUNDS

     Each Fund may establish an investment  reserve in cash  (including  foreign
currency) or cash equivalent  securities  (high quality  short-term fixed income
debt securities)  whenever such reserve is deemed to be in the best interests of
the shareholders for any reason,  including Wright's expectation of a decline in
the equity markets in which the Fund is permitted to invest. Under normal market
conditions, such reserves will be no more than approximately 20% of a Fund's net
assets. Accordingly, each Fund will have at least 80% of its net assets invested
in equity securities during normal market  conditions.  With respect to Austria,
Belgium/Luxembourg,   Canada,   France,   Germany,   Hong  Kong,  Italy,  Japan,
Netherlands,  Nordic,  Spain and  Switzerland  Funds,  the policy  stated in the
preceding  sentence  is  fundamental  and may be  changed  only by the vote of a
majority of a Fund's outstanding  voting securities.  A greater reserve position
may, however,  be established  temporarily if Wright believes that this would be
advisable in view of what it considers  to be  extraordinary  economic and stock
market conditions.  See "Special Investment Considerations - Temporary Defensive
Investments"  in the  Prospectus  for a discussion  of when the Funds may take a
temporary defensive position.

     The following  investment  restrictions  have been adopted by each Fund and
may be  changed  as to a Fund  only by the vote of a  majority  of the  affected
Fund's outstanding  voting securities,  which means the 
<PAGE>
lesser of (a) 67% of the shares of the Fund if the holders of more than 50%
of the shares are present or  represented at the meeting or (b) more than 50% of
the shares of the Fund. If a percentage  restriction contained herein is adhered
to at the time of  investment,  a later  increase or decrease in the  percentage
resulting  from a change in the value of portfolio  securities  or the amount of
net  assets  will  not be  considered  a  violation  of  any  of  the  following
restrictions. Accordingly, each Fund may not:

(The  following  fundamental  investment  restrictions  apply  only to  Austria,
Belgium/Luxembourg,   Canada,   France,   Germany,   Hong  Kong,  Italy,  Japan,
Netherlands, Nordic, Spain and Switzerland.)

         (1)  Borrow  money other than from banks and then only up to 1/3 of the
              current  market  value of its total assets  (including  the amount
              borrowed)  and only if such  borrowing  is incurred as a temporary
              measure for  extraordinary or emergency  purposes or to facilitate
              the orderly sale of portfolio securities to accommodate redemption
              requests;  or  issue  any  securities  other  than its  shares  of
              beneficial interest except as appropriate to evidence indebtedness
              which the Fund is  permitted  to  incur.  (Each  Fund  anticipates
              paying interest on borrowed money at rates comparable to its yield
              and no Fund has any  intention of  attempting  to increase its net
              income by means of borrowing);

         (2)  Pledge,  mortgage or  hypothecate  its assets to an extent greater
              than 1/3 of the total assets of the Fund taken at market;

         (3)  Purchase the securities of any one issuer (other than  obligations
              issued  or  guaranteed  by  the  U.S.  Government  or  any  of its
              agencies,  or securities of other regulated investment  companies)
              if, as a result  of such  purchase,  more  than 5% of that  Fund's
              total  assets  (taken at current  value)  would be invested in the
              securities  of such issuer or securities of any one issuer held by
              that Fund would exceed 10% of the outstanding voting securities of
              such issuer at the end of any fiscal quarter of the Fund, provided
              that,  with  respect  to 50% of the  Fund's  assets,  the Fund may
              invest  up to 25% of its  assets  in  the  securities  of any  one
              issuer;

         (4)  Purchase or retain  securities  of any issuer if 5% or more of the
              issuer's  securities  are owned by those  officers and Trustees of
              the  Trust or its  investment  adviser  or  administrator  who own
              individually more than 1/2 of 1% of the issuer's securities;

         (5)  Purchase securities on margin or make short sales except sales
              against the box or purchase warrants;

         (6)  Buy or sell commodities,  or commodity  contracts (except that the

              beneficial interest except as appropriate to evidence indebtedness

              income by means of borrowing);

              business  activities in the same industry,  provided that there is
              no limitation in respect to investments  in obligations  issued or

              (v) hold and sell real  estate  acquired  by a Fund as a result of

              agencies  and   instrumentalities  and  options  thereon  or  (ii)
              purchase  more than 10% of the voting  securities  of any class of
              any issuer.

and nonfundamental investment restriction (h) below, the arrangements (including
escrow,  margin and collateral  arrangements) made by a Fund with respect to its
transactions  in currency  options,  options on securities  and forward  foreign
currency  exchange  contracts  shall not be  considered to be (i) a borrowing of
money or the issuance of securities  (including senior securities) by that Fund,
(ii) a pledge of its assets,  (iii) the purchase of a security on margin or (iv)
a short sale or position.

     The following are nonfundamental policies of each Fund which may be changed
by the  Trustees  without  shareholder  approval.  The  Funds  have  no  current
intention  of  borrowing  for  leverage  purposes,  making  securities  loans or
engaging  in short  sales.  Prior to  engaging  in such  activities,  the Funds'
Prospectus will be amended to disclose the intention to do so. No Fund will:

         (a)  Purchase oil, gas or other mineral leases or purchase  partnership
              interests in oil, gas or other mineral  exploration or development
              programs;

         (b)  Invest  more than 5% of its  total  assets  in the  securities  of

         (c)  Purchase  securities  issued by any other investment  company, 
              except by purchase in the open market where no commission  or
              profit to  sponsor or dealer results from such  purchase, other 
              than the customary broker's commission,  or except where such
              purchase, although not made on the open market, is part of a plan
              of merger or consolidation. Subject to the preceding  sentence,
              a Fund may invest in other investment companies to the full extent
              allowed by the 1940 Act. Under the 1940 Act, a Fund may not 
              acquire more than 3% of the outstanding  voting  securities of
              another  investment company, invest more than 5% of its assets in
              any single investment company or invest more than 10% of its
              assets in other investment companies as a group;

         (d)  Enter into an agreement to purchase securities while its
              borrowings exceed 5% of its total assets;

         (e)  Invest  (1)  more  than  15%  of  its  net   assets  in   illiquid
              investments, including repurchase agreements maturing in more than
              seven  days,  securities  that  are  not  readily  marketable  and
              restricted  securities  not eligible  for resale  pursuant to Rule
              144A under the Securities  Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act");  (2) more
              than 10% of its net  assets in  restricted  securities,  excluding
              securities  eligible  for resale  pursuant to Rule 144A or foreign
              securities  which are offered or sold outside the United States in
              accordance  with Regulation S under the 1933 Act; or (3) more than
              15% of its net assets in restricted  securities  (including  those
              eligible for resale under Rule 144A);

         (f)  Invest more than 10% of its total  assets in shares of real estate
              investment  trusts  that are not readily  marketable  or invest in
              real estate limited partnerships;

(In addition, the following nonfundamental investment restrictions apply only to
Australasia, Britain, Ireland, Mexico, United States, Global and International.)

         (g)  Purchase or retain  securities  of any issuer if 5% or more of the
              issuer's  securities  are owned by those  officers and Trustees of
              the  Trust or its  investment  adviser  or  administrator  who own
              individually more than 1/2 of 1% of the issuer's securities;

         (h)  Purchase  securities  on  margin  or make  short  sales  except
              sales against the box or purchase warrants; or
<PAGE>

         (i)  Purchase  from or sell to any of its  Trustees  or  officers,  its
              investment adviser, its administrator,  its principal underwriter,
              if any, or the officers or directors of said  investment  adviser,
              administrator, and principal underwriter,  portfolio securities of
              the Fund.

     Messrs.  Miles,  Emmet,  Pierce,  Prefer and Van Houtte are  members of the
Special  Nominating  Committee  of  the  Trustees  of  the  Trust.  The  Special
Nominating  Committee's function is selecting and nominating individuals to fill
vacancies,  as and when they occur,  in the ranks of those  Trustees who are not
"interested  persons" of the Trust,  Eaton  Vance or Wright.  The Trust does not
have a designated audit  committee,  since the full board performs the functions
of such committee.


CONTROL PERSONS AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS OF SHARES

group, owned in the aggregate less than 1% of the outstanding shares of any Fund
that was then  offering  its shares to the  public.  The Funds'  shares are held
primarily by trust  departments of depository  institutions  and trust companies
either for their own account or for the account of their  clients.  From time to
time,  several of these trust departments may be the record owners of 5% or more
of the outstanding shares of a particular Fund.

the following  percentages of the outstanding shares of the Funds that were then

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES


     The Funds have engaged Wright to act as their  investment  adviser pursuant
to Investment Advisory Contracts (the "Investment Advisory Contracts").  Wright,
located at 1000 Lafayette  Boulevard,  Bridgeport,  Connecticut,  was founded in
1960 and currently provides investment services to clients throughout the United
States and abroad.  John Winthrop Wright may be considered a controlling  person
of Wright by virtue of his  positions  as Chairman of the Board of  Directors of
Wright,  and  by  reason  of his  ownership  of  more  than  a  majority  of the
outstanding shares of Wright.


     Wright is also the  investment  adviser to The Wright Managed Income Trust,
The Wright  Managed  Equity Trust and The Wright  Managed Blue Chip Series Trust
(the "Wright Funds").


     The Investment  Advisory  Contracts  provide that Wright will carry out the
investment  and   reinvestment  of  the  assets  of  the  Funds,   will  furnish
continuously  an investment  program with respect to the Funds,  will  determine
which securities should be purchased, sold or exchanged, and will implement such
determinations.   Wright  will  furnish  to  the  Funds  investment  advice  and
management  services,  office  space,  equipment  and  clerical  personnel,  and
investment advisory,  statistical and research facilities.  In addition,  Wright
has arranged for certain members of the Eaton Vance and Wright  organizations to
serve without  salary as officers or Trustees of the Trust.  In return for these
services, each Fund is obligated to pay a monthly advisory fee calculated at the
rates  set  forth in the  table  below (as a  percentage  of  average  daily net
assets).

</TABLE>

     It should  be noted  that,  in  addition  to  compensating  Wright  for its
advisory  services to the Funds,  the above  schedule  is intended to  partially
compensate  Wright for the  maintenance  of the Indices which form the basis for
the  selection  of  securities  for the Funds.  Other  mutual funds and accounts
advised by Wright  Investors'  Service may use the Indices as may other entities
not affiliated with Wright.

     The  following  table  sets  forth  the net  assets  of each  Fund that was
offering  its shares as at December  31, 1994 and the  advisory  fee earned from
each such Fund during the fiscal years ended  December 31, 1994,  1993 and 1992.
As noted  above,  the  previous  investment  advisory  contract  for such  Funds
provided for a fee  calculated  at a lower rate than is currently  applicable to
such Funds. At December 31, 1994, the  Australasia,  Austria,  Britain,  Canada,
France, Germany,  Ireland, United States, Global and International Funds had not
commenced operations.

respect thereto.

     The Investment  Advisory  Contracts of all the Funds and the Administration
Agreement  of all the Funds will remain in effect until  February 28, 1996.  The
Funds' Investment  Advisory Contracts may be continued with respect to each Fund
from year to year  thereafter  so long as such  continuance  after  February 28,
1996,  as the case may be, is  approved at least  annually  (i) by the vote of a
majority of the Trustees who are not  "interested  persons" of the Trust,  Eaton
Vance or Wright cast in person at a meeting  specifically called for the purpose
of voting on such  approval and (ii) by the Board of Trustees of the Trust or by
vote of a majority of the  shareholders  of that Fund. The  Investment  Advisory
Contracts  and  Administration  Agreement  may be terminated as to a Fund at any
time without penalty on sixty (60) days' written notice by the Board of Trustees
or Directors  of either  party,  or by vote of the  majority of the  outstanding
shares of that Fund,  and each agreement  will  terminate  automatically  in the
event of its assignment. Each agreement provides that, in the absence
<PAGE>
of willful  misfeasance,  bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard
of its  obligations  or duties to the Trust under such  agreement on the part of
Eaton Vance or Wright. Eaton Vance or Wright will not be liable to the Trust for
any loss incurred.  The Funds' Investment  Advisory Contracts and Administration
Agreement   were  most  recently   approved  by  the  Trustees,   including  the
"non-interested" Trustees, at a meeting held on January 25, 1995.
CUSTODIAN

     Investors  Bank  &  Trust  Company  ("IBT"),  24  Federal  Street,  Boston,
Massachusetts (a 77.3% owned subsidiary of EVC) acts as custodian for the Funds.
IBT has the  custody  of all cash and  securities  of the Funds,  maintains  the
Funds' general ledgers and computes the daily net asset value per share. In such
capacity  it  attends  to  details  in  connection  with  the  sale,   exchange,
substitution,  transfer or other dealings with the Funds' investments,  receives
and  disburses  all funds and performs  various  other  ministerial  duties upon
receipt of proper  instructions  from the Funds.  IBT charges custody fees which
are competitive within the industry.  A portion of the custody fee for each fund
managed by Wright for which IBT serves as  custodian is based upon a schedule of
percentages  applied  to the  aggregate  assets  of  those  funds,  the  fees so
determined  being then  allocated  among such funds  relative to their size.  In
addition,  each  fund  pays  to IBT a fee  based  on  the  number  of  portfolio
transactions,  a fee based on the number of  portfolio  holdings,  and a fee for
bookkeeping and valuation services.  These fees are then reduced by a credit for
cash balances of the particular  fund at IBT equal to 75% of the average 91-day,
U.S. Treasury Bill auction rate for the billing period applied to the particular
fund's average daily collected balances for the period.

     EVC and its  affiliates  and its officers and  employees  from time to time
enter into transactions with various banks, including the Funds' custodian, IBT.
Those  transactions  with IBT which have occurred to date have included loans to
certain of Eaton Vance's  officers and  employees.  It is Eaton Vance's  opinion
that the  terms and  conditions  of such  transactions  were not and will not be
influenced by existing or potential custodian or other relationships between the
Funds and IBT.

     The Funds will employ  foreign  sub-custodians,  the selection of which are
subject to annual  review and approval by the Trustees in  accordance  with Rule
17f-5 under the 1940 Act.

     During the fiscal year ended December 31, 1994, each Fund that was offering
its shares at December 31, 1994 paid the following  amounts to IBT for custodial
services under these arrangements.

INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


     Deloitte & Touche LLP, 125 Summer Street,  Boston,  Massachusetts,  are the
Trust's independent certified public accountants,  providing audit services, tax
return  preparation,  and  assistance  and  consultation  with  respect  to  the
preparation  of  filings  with  the  Securities  and  Exchange   Commission  and
preparation of the Funds' Federal and state tax returns.




BROKERAGE ALLOCATION


     Purchases and sales of securities on a securities  exchange are effected by
brokers,  and  the  Funds  pay a  brokerage  commission  for  this  service.  In
transactions  on stock  exchanges in the United States,  these  commissions  are
negotiated,  whereas on many foreign stock  exchanges the commissions are fixed.
In the over-the-counter market,  securities are normally traded on a "net" basis
with  dealers  acting  as  principal  for their  own  accounts  without a stated
commission,  although the price of the securities  usually  includes a profit to
the dealer. In underwritten offerings, securities are purchased at a fixed price
which includes an amount of compensation to the underwriter,  generally referred
to as the  underwriter's  concession  or discount.  On occasion,  certain  money
market  instruments may be purchased  directly from an issuer,  in which case no
commissions or discounts are paid.

     Wright places the portfolio  security  transactions for each Fund, which in
some cases may be effected in block  transactions  which include other  accounts
managed by Wright.  Wright  provides  similar  services  directly for bank trust
departments  and other  clients.  Wright  seeks to  execute  portfolio  security
transactions  on the  most  favorable  terms  and in the most  effective  manner
possible.  In seeking  best  execution,  Wright  will use its best  judgment  in
evaluating the terms of a transaction,  and will give  consideration  to various
relevant  factors,  including  without  limitation  the  size  and  type  of the
transaction,  the nature and  character  of the  markets for the  security,  the
confidentiality,  speed and  certainty of effective  execution  required for the
transaction,   the  reputation,   experience  and  financial  condition  of  the
broker-dealer and the value and quality of service rendered by the broker-dealer
in other  transactions,  and the  reasonableness of the brokerage  commission or
markup, if any.

     It is expected that on frequent  occasions there will be many broker-dealer
firms which will meet the foregoing  criteria for a particular  transaction.  In
selecting  among such  firms,  the Funds may give  consideration  to those firms
which supply  brokerage and research  services,  quotations and  statistical and
other  information  to Wright for their use in servicing  their  accounts.  Such
brokers may include firms which purchase  investment  services from Wright.  The
term  "brokerage  and  research  services"  includes  advice  as to the value of
securities,  the advisability of investing in, purchasing or selling securities,
and the  availability  of securities  or  purchasers  or sellers of  securities;
furnishing  analyses and reports  concerning  issuers,  industries,  securities,
economic factors and trends, portfolio strategy and the performance of accounts;
and  effecting  securities  transactions  and  performing  functions  incidental
thereto (such as clearance and settlement). Such services and information may be
useful and of value to Wright in servicing  advisory clients other than the Fund
which paid the  brokerage  commissions  and the other  Funds.  The  services and
information  furnished  by a  particular  firm  may not  necessarily  be used in
connection  with the Funds or the Fund which paid brokerage  commissions to such
firm.  The  advisory  fee  paid by the  Funds  to  Wright  is not  reduced  as a
consequence  of Wright's  receipt of such services and  information.  While such
services and  information  are not expected to reduce  Wright's  normal research
activities  and  expenses,  Wright  would,  through  use of  such  services  and
information,  avoid the  additional  expenses  which would be incurred if Wright
should attempt to develop  comparable  services and information  through its own
staff.
<PAGE>


     Subject to the  requirement  that Wright shall use its best efforts to seek
to execute each Fund's portfolio  security  transactions at advantageous  prices
and at reasonably  competitive  commission rates, Wright, as indicated above, is
authorized  to consider as a factor in the selection of any  broker-dealer  firm
with whom a Fund's  portfolio  orders  may be placed the fact that such firm has
sold  or is  selling  shares  of the  Funds  or of  other  investment  companies
sponsored  by Wright.  This  policy is  consistent  with a rule of the  National
Association of Securities Dealers,  Inc., which rule provides that no firm which
is a member of the  Association  shall favor or  disfavor  the  distribution  of
shares of any particular  investment company or group of investment companies on
the basis of  brokerage  commissions  received or expected by such firm from any
source.

     Under the Funds' Investment Advisory Contracts, Wright has the authority to
pay commissions on portfolio  transactions  for brokerage and research  services
exceeding  that which other  brokers or dealers  might charge  provided  certain
conditions are met.

     The Funds' Investment  Advisory Contracts expressly recognize the practices
which are provided for in Section 28(e) of the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934
by  authorizing  the  selection  of a broker  or dealer  which  charges a Fund a
commission  which is in excess of the  amount of  commission  another  broker or
dealer would have charged for effecting that  transaction if it is determined in
good faith that such  commission  was reasonable in relation to the value of the
brokerage and research services which have been provided.

     If  purchases  or sales of  securities  of the Funds and one or more  other
investment  companies or clients supervised by Wright are considered at or about
the same time,  transactions  in such  securities  will be  allocated  among the
several investment  companies and clients in a manner deemed equitable to all by
Wright, taking into account the respective sizes of the Funds, and the amount of
securities to be purchased or sold. It is recognized that it is possible that in
some cases this procedure could have a detrimental effect on the price or volume
of the security so far as the Funds are concerned. However, in other cases it is
possible that the ability to participate in volume transactions and to negotiate
lower brokerage commissions will be beneficial to the Funds.

     During the fiscal years ended  December 31, 1994,  1993 and 1992, the Funds
that were offering  their shares during such periods paid the following  amounts
on brokerage commissions:

FUND SHARES AND OTHER SECURITIES

     The shares of beneficial interest of the Trust have no par value and may be
issued in two or more series,  or Funds. The Trust currently has nineteen series
designated as listed on page 3 of this Statement of Additional Information.  The
Trustees  are  empowered  by the  Declaration  of Trust  and  By-Laws  to create
additional series. Shares of each series may be issued in an unlimited number by
the Trust's Trustees.  Each share of a series represents an equal  proportionate
beneficial interest in that series and, when issued and outstanding,  the shares
are fully paid and non-assessable by the relevant series.

     Shareholders are entitled to one vote for each full share held.  Fractional
shares may be voted in  proportion  to the amount of a series'  net asset  value
which they  represent.  Voting rights are not  cumulative,  which means that the
holders of more than 50% of the shares  voting for the  election of Trustees can
elect 100% of the  Trustees  and,  in such event,  the holders of the  remaining
shares voting on the matter will not be able to elect any Trustees.  Shares have
no preemptive or conversion rights and are freely transferable. Upon liquidation
of a series,  shareholders  of that series are entitled to share pro rata in the
net assets of the affected series available for distribution to shareholders.

PRINCIPAL UNDERWRITER

     The Trust has  adopted a  Distribution  Plan (the  "Plan") on behalf of the
Funds in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act and Article III,  Section
26 of the Rules of Fair  Practice  of the  National  Association  of  Securities
Dealers, Inc. (the "NASD").

     The Trust has entered into a  distribution  contract on behalf of the Funds
with its Principal  Underwriter,  Wright Investors' Service  Distributors,  Inc.
("WISDI"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Wright,  providing for WISDI to act as a
separate distributor of each Fund's shares.

     Under this contract and the Plan,  it is currently  intended that each Fund
will pay to WISDI for distribution services and personal and account maintenance
services  in  connection  with the Fund's  shares an annual fee equal to .25% of
such Fund's average daily net assets.  Appropriate  adjustments to payments made
pursuant to the Plan shall be made whenever  necessary to assure that no payment
is  made  by a  Fund  which  exceeds  the  applicable  maximum  cap  imposed  on
asset-based,  front-end  and deferred  sales charges by Section 26(d) of Article
III of the Rules of Fair Practice of the NASD.

     Pursuant to the Plan,  the Trust,  on behalf of each Fund, is authorized to
compensate  WISDI for (1)  distribution  services  and (2)  personal and account
maintenance services performed and expenses incurred by WISDI in connection with
the Fund's shares. The amount of such compensation,  including  compensation for
personal and account  maintenance  services,  paid during any one year shall not
exceed .25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund. Such compensation shall
be calculated and accrued daily and paid quarterly.
<PAGE>

     Distribution  services  and  expenses  for which  WISDI may be  compensated
pursuant to this Plan include, without limitation:  compensation to and expenses
incurred  by  Authorized   Dealers  and  the   officers,   employees  and  sales
representatives of Authorized Dealers and of WISDI;  allocable overhead,  travel
and telephone expenses;  the printing of prospectuses and reports for other than
existing shareholders;  the preparation and distribution of sales literature and
advertising; and all other expenses (other than personal and account maintenance
services as defined  below)  incurred in connection  with  activities  primarily
intended to result in the sale of the Funds' shares.

     Personal and account maintenance  services include, but are not limited to,
payments made to or on account of WISDI, Authorized Dealers and their respective
officers,  employees and sales  representatives who respond to inquiries of, and
furnish  assistance to,  shareholders  concerning their ownership of Fund shares
and their accounts or who provide similar services not otherwise  provided by or
on behalf of the Fund.

     The  Plan is a  compensation  plan  which  provides  for the  payment  of a
specified  distribution fee without regard to the distribution expenses actually
incurred  by  WISDI.  Accordingly,  an  amount  equal  to  1/365  of the  annual
distribution  fee will be accrued on each day as an expense of each Fund,  which
will reduce its net investment income.

     Under the Plan,  the President or Vice President of the Trust shall provide
to the  Trustees  for  their  review,  and the  Trustees  shall  review at least
quarterly,  a written  report  of the  amounts  expended  under the Plan and the
purposes for which such expenditures were made.

     Under its terms,  the Plan  remains in effect  from year to year,  provided
such  continuance  is approved  annually by a vote of its Trustees,  including a
majority of the  Trustees  who are not  interested  persons of the Trust and who
have no direct or indirect  financial interest in the operation of the Plan. The
Plan may not be amended to  increase  materially  the amount to be spent for the
services  described  therein as to a Fund without  approval of a majority of the
outstanding  voting  securities of that Fund and all material  amendments of the
Plan must also be approved by the Trustees of the Trust in the manner  described
above.  The Plan may be terminated  at any time as to a Fund without  payment of
any  penalty by a vote of a majority  of the  Trustees  of the Trust who are not
interested  persons  of the Trust and who have no direct or  indirect  financial
interest  in  the  operation  of  the  Plan  or by  vote  of a  majority  of the
outstanding  voting  securities  of that Fund. So long as the Plan is in effect,
the selection and nomination of Trustees who are not  interested  persons of the
Trust shall be  committed  to the  discretion  of the  Trustees who are not such
interested  persons.  The  Trustees of the Trust have  determined  that in their
judgment there is a reasonable  likelihood  that the Plan will benefit the Funds
and their shareholders.

     The following  table shows the fee payable to WISDI under the Plans and the
amount of such fee actually  paid by each Fund that was then offering its shares
to the public for the year ended December 31, 1994.

PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

     The average  annual total return of each Fund is determined for a specified
period by calculating the actual dollar amount of investment  return on a $1,000
investment  in the Fund made at the  maximum  public  offering  price (net asset
value)  at  the  beginning  of the  period,  and  then  calculating  the  annual
compounded  rate of return which would  produce that amount.  Total return for a
period of one year is equal to the actual return of the Fund during that period.
This calculation  assumes that all dividends and distributions are reinvested at
net asset value on the reinvestment dates during the period.

     The average  annual total  return will be  calculated  using the  following
formula:
                                         n
                                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 a hypothetical $1,000 payment at the
end of the period.
<PAGE>

     Each Fund's  yield is computed by dividing  its net  investment  income per
share  earned  during a recent  thirty-day  period by the product of the average
daily number of shares  outstanding and entitled to receive dividends during the
period and the maximum  offering  price (net asset  value) per share on the last
day of the period. The results are compounded on a bond equivalent (semi-annual)
basis and then they are annualized.  Net investment income per share is equal to
the Fund's  dividends and interest earned during the period,  reduced by accrued
expenses for the period.

     The  yield  earned  by each Fund  will be  calculated  using the  following
formula:
                                               6                          
                         YIELD = 2 [ ( a-b + 1) - 1 ]
                                       ---
                                       cd

where:     a  =  Dividends and interest earned during the period
           b  =  Expenses accrued for the period (after reductions)
           c  =  The average  daily  number of shares  outstanding  during the
                 period that were entitled to receive dividends
           d =   The maximum offering price (net asset  value) per share on the
                 last day of the period.

     A Fund's yield or total return may be compared to the Consumer  Price Index
and various  domestic or foreign  securities  indices.  A Fund's  yield or total
return and comparisons with these indices may be used in  advertisements  and in
information furnished to present or prospective shareholders.

     From time to time,  evaluations of a Fund's performance made by independent
sources may be used in advertisements and in information furnished to present or
prospective  shareholders.   These  may  include  rankings  prepared  by  Lipper
Analytical Services, Inc., an independent service which monitors the performance
of mutual funds. The Lipper  performance  analysis  reflects the reinvestment of
dividends  and capital gain  distributions  but does not take sales charges into
consideration and is prepared without regard to tax consequences.

TAXES

     Among  the  requirements  for  qualification  of each  Fund as a  regulated
investment  company  are the  following:  (1) at least 90% of the Fund's  annual
gross income must be derived from  interest,  dividends,  gains from the sale or
other disposition of stock or securities and certain other types of income;  (2)
less than 30% of the Fund's  annual gross income may be derived from gross gains
from the sale or disposition of stock or securities or certain other investments
held for less than  three  months;  and (3) at the close of each  quarter of its
taxable  year,  (a) at least  50% of the  value  of the  Fund's  assets  must be
comprised  of cash and  cash  items  (including  receivables),  U.S.  Government
securities,  securities  of  other  regulated  investment  companies  and  other
securities limited in respect of any one issuer to not more than 5% of the value
of the Fund's  total  assets and not more than 10% of the voting  securities  of
such  issuer  and (b) not more than 25% of the value of its total  assets may be
invested  in the  securities  of any one  issuer  (other  than  U.S.  Government
securities and securities of other  regulated  investment  companies) or certain
other issuers  controlled  by the Fund.  These  requirements  may limit a Fund's
activities  in options  on  securities  and  securities  indices,  as well as in
foreign currencies and forward foreign currency exchange contracts to the extent
gains relating to such latter  activities are considered not directly related to
the Fund's principal business of investing in securities.

     Each Fund's use of equalization may affect the amount, timing and character
of distributions to shareholders.  Investment by a Fund in a stock of a "passive
foreign investment  company" may cause the Fund to recognize income prior to the
receipt of  distributions  from such a company or to become  subject to tax upon
the receipt of certain  excess  distributions  from, or upon  disposition of its
stock of, such a company,  although an election  may in some cases be  available
that would ameliorate some of these adverse tax consequences.

     A Fund's transactions in foreign currencies,  foreign  currency-denominated
debt securities,  forward foreign currency exchange contracts and receivables or
payables  denominated  in a foreign  currency  are  subject to special tax rules
under Section 988 of the Code which will  generally  cause gains and losses from
these transactions to be treated as ordinary income and losses.  Certain forward
positions held by a Fund may be required to be "marked to market" (treated as if
they  were  closed  out) on the  last  business  day of each  taxable  year.  In
addition, if certain of these positions held by the Fund substantially  diminish
the Fund's risk of loss with  respect to  securities  or other  positions in the
Fund's portfolio, this combination of positions may be treated as a straddle for
tax purposes with the  possibility of deferral of losses and  adjustments in the
holding period of securities held by the Fund.

     The portion of the  distributions  of United States Fund or Global Fund, if
any,  attributable to dividends it receives from U.S. domestic  corporations may
qualify for the dividends-received deduction for corporate shareholders, subject
to   compliance   with   certain   minimum   holding-period   requirements   and
debt-financing  restrictions.  Such portion,  if any, may increase liability for
alternative   minimum  tax  and  result  in  basis   adjustments  under  certain
circumstances.

     Shareholders  may  realize a  taxable  gain or loss  upon a  redemption  or
exchange of shares of a Fund.  Any loss realized upon the redemption or exchange
of  shares  of a Fund with a tax  holding  period of six  months or less will be
treated as a long-term  capital loss to the extent of any  distributions  of net
long-term  capital  gains with respect to such  shares.  All or a portion of any
loss realized upon the redemption or exchange of shares may be disallowed to the
extent shares are purchased  (including  shares  acquired by means of reinvested
dividends)  within the period  beginning 30 days before and ending 30 days after
the date of such redemption or exchange.

NOTES:

(1)  Wright  EquiFund - Britain  was  designated  a series of  EquiFund - Wright
     National  Fiduciary  Equity  Funds on January 13,  1995. A sale of interest
     therein at the purchase price of $10 was made by Wright Investors'  Service
     (the "initial interests").

(2)  Organization  expenses  are  being  deferred  and  will be  amortized  on a
     straight-line  basis over a period not to exceed five years,  commencing on
     the effective date of the Fund's initial offering of its shares. The amount
     paid by the Fund on any withdrawal by the holders of the initial  interests
     of any of the respective  initial interests will be reduced by a portion of
     any unamortized organization expenses,  determined by the proportion of the
     amount of the initial  interests  withdrawn to the initial  interests  then
     outstanding.

To The Trustees and Shareholders of EquiFund - Wright National  Fiduciary Equity
Funds:

We have audited the  accompanying  statement of assets and liabilities of Wright
EquiFund - Britain,  a series of  EquiFund - Wright  National  Fiduciary  Equity
Funds (the  Trust) as of January  13,  1995.  This  financial  statement  is the
responsibility of the management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
this financial based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards  require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance  about  whether the  statement  of assets and  liabilities  is free of
material  misstatement.  An audit includes examining,  on a test basis, evidence
supporting  the  amounts  and   disclosures  in  the  statement  of  assets  and
liabilities. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant  estimates  made by  management,  as well as evaluating  the overall
financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audit of the statement of
assets and liabilities provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such statement of assets and liabilities presents fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Wright EquiFund - Britain, a series
of EquiFund - Wright National  Fiduciary  Equity Funds (the Trust) as of January
13, 1995 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                         ---------------------------



DESCRIPTION OF INVESTMENTS


     U.S. GOVERNMENT,  AGENCY AND INSTRUMENTALITY OBLIGATIONS -- U.S. Government
obligations are issued by the U.S.  Treasury and include bills,  certificates of
indebtedness,  notes,  and bonds.  Agencies  and  instrumentalities  of the U.S.
Government  are  established  under  the  authority  of an act of  Congress  and
include,  but are not limited to, the Government National Mortgage  Association,
the Tennessee  Valley  Authority,  the Bank for  Cooperatives,  the Farmers Home
Administration,  Federal Home Loan Banks,  Federal  Intermediate  Credit  Banks,
Federal Land Banks, and the Federal National Mortgage Association.

     REPURCHASE  AGREEMENTS  -- involve the purchase of debt  securities  of the
U.S.   Treasury,   a   Federal   agency,   a   Federal   instrumentality   or  a
Federally-created   corporation  or  of  other  high  quality   short-term  debt
obligations.  At the same time a Fund  purchases  the  security it resells  such
security to the vendor which is a member bank of the Federal Reserve  System,  a
recognized securities dealer or any foreign bank whose creditworthiness has been
determined by Wright to be at least equal to that of issuers of commercial paper
rated within the two highest grades assigned by Moody's Investors Service,  Inc.
or Standard and Poor's Ratings Group, and is obligated to redeliver the security
to the vendor on an agreed-upon date in the future. A repurchase  agreement with
foreign  banks may be available  with respect to  government  securities  of the
particular foreign  jurisdiction.  The resale price is in excess of the purchase
price and reflects an  agreed-upon  market rate  unrelated to the coupon rate on
the purchased  security.  Such transactions  afford an opportunity for a Fund to
earn a return on cash which is only temporarily  available. A Fund's risk is the
ability of the vendor to pay an agreed upon sum upon the  delivery  date,  which
the Trust believes is limited to the difference  between the market value of the
security and the  repurchase  price  provided for in the  repurchase  agreement.
However,  bankruptcy  or  insolvency  proceedings  affecting  the  vendor of the
security which is subject to the repurchase agreement,  prior to the repurchase,
may result in a delay in a Fund being able to resell the security.  The 1940 Act
prohibits  registered  investment  companies from acquiring  certain  securities
issued by broker-dealers.  A transaction whereby a Fund enters into a repurchase
agreement with a  broker-dealer  might be construed as a  contravention  of this
prohibition.  In the event the law is so interpreted,  the Funds will cease such
transactions.

     CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT -- are certificates  issued against funds deposited
in a bank, are for a definite  period of time,  earn a specified rate of return,
and are normally negotiable.

     BANKERS'  ACCEPTANCES -- are short-term credit  instruments used to finance
the import,  export,  transfer or storage of goods.  They are termed  "accepted"
when a bank guarantees their payment at maturity.

     FIXED TIME DEPOSITS -- are bank  obligations  payable at a stated  maturity
date and bearing  interest at a fixed rate. Fixed time deposits may be withdrawn
on demand by the  investor,  but may be  subject to early  withdrawal  penalties
which vary  depending upon market  conditions and the remaining  maturity of the
obligation.  There are no  contractual  restrictions  on the right to transfer a
beneficial interest in a fixed time deposit to a third party,  although there is
no market for such deposits.

     COMMERCIAL  PAPER -- refers to promissory  notes issued by  corporations in
order to finance their short-term credit needs.

     FINANCE  COMPANY  PAPER -- refers to  promissory  notes  issued by  finance
companies in order to finance their short-term credit needs.
<PAGE>

     FOREIGN  SECURITIES -- The Funds,  other than the United  States Fund,  may
invest  in  foreign  securities,   and  in  certificates  of  deposit,  bankers'
acceptances,  fixed time  deposits  issued by major  foreign  banks and  foreign
branches of United States banks, to any extent deemed  appropriate by Wright and
consistent  with a Fund's  investment  objective.  Investing  in  securities  of
foreign  governments or securities issued by companies whose principal  business
activities  are outside  the United  States may  involve  significant  risks not
associated  with  domestic  investments.  For example,  there is generally  less
publicly available  information about foreign companies,  particularly those not
subject to the  disclosure  and reporting  requirements  of the U.S.  securities
laws.  Foreign issuers are generally not bound by uniform  accounting,  auditing
and financial reporting requirements  comparable to those applicable to domestic
issuers.  Investments in foreign  securities  also involve the risks of possible
adverse changes in exchange control  regulations,  expropriation or confiscatory
taxation, limitation on removal of funds or other assets of a Fund, political or
financial  instability or diplomatic and other  developments  which could affect
such  investments.  Further,  economies of particular  countries or areas of the
world may differ  favorably or  unfavorably  from the economy of the U.S. To the
extent investments in foreign securities are denominated or quoted in currencies
of foreign countries, a Fund may be affected favorably or unfavorably by changes
in currency  exchange  rates and may incur costs in connection  with  conversion
between currencies.

     It is anticipated  that in most cases the best available market for foreign
securities will be on exchanges or in  over-the-counter  markets located outside
the U.S. Foreign stock markets, while growing in volume and sophistication,  are
generally  not as  developed  as those in the U.S.  Securities  of some  foreign
issuers may be less liquid and more volatile than  securities of comparable U.S.
companies (this is particularly true of issuers located in developing countries;
however,  the Funds do not  anticipate  investments  in securities of developing
countries). In addition, foreign brokerage commissions are generally higher than
commissions  on  securities  traded in the U.S.  and may be  non-negotiable.  In
general,  there is less  overall  governmental  supervision  and  regulation  of
securities exchanges, brokers and listed companies than in the U.S.


     FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE  TRANSACTIONS -- The Funds, other than the United
States Fund, may engage in foreign currency exchange  transactions.  Investments
in securities of foreign  governments  and companies  whose  principal  business
activities  are  located  outside  the United  States  will  frequently  involve
currencies of foreign countries.  In addition,  assets of a Fund may temporarily
be held in  bank  deposits  in  foreign  currencies  during  the  completion  of
investment  programs.  Therefore,  the value of a Fund's assets,  as measured in
U.S.  dollars,  may be affected  favorably or  unfavorably by changes in foreign
currency  exchange rates and exchange  control  regulations.  Although each Fund
values its assets daily in U.S. dollars, the Fund does not intend to convert its
holdings of foreign  currencies  into U.S.  dollars on a daily basis. A Fund may
conduct its foreign currency exchange  transactions on a spot (i.e., cash) basis
at the spot rate prevailing in the foreign currency  exchange  market.  The Fund
will convert  currency on a spot basis from time to time and will incur costs in
connection with such currency  conversion.  Although foreign exchange dealers do
not  charge  a fee for  conversion,  they  do  realize  a  profit  based  on the
difference  (the  "spread")  between  the  prices at which  they are  buying and
selling various currencies.  Thus, a dealer may offer to sell a foreign currency
to a Fund at one rate,  while offering a lesser rate of exchange should the Fund
desire  to resell  that  currency  to the  dealer.  The  Funds do not  intend to
speculate in foreign currency exchange rates.


     As an alternative to spot transactions,  a Fund may enter into contracts to
purchase or sell foreign  currencies at a future date ("forward  contracts").  A
forward contract  involves an obligation to purchase or sell a specific currency
at a future date and price fixed by agreement between the parties at the time of
entering into the contract.  These contracts are traded in the interbank  market
conducted directly between currency traders (usually large commercial banks) and
their  customers.  Although a forward  contract  generally  involves  no deposit
requirement and no commissions are charged at any stage for trades,  a Fund will
maintain  segregated  accounts in connection with such  transactions.  The Funds
intend to enter into such contracts only on net terms.
<PAGE>

     A Fund may enter into forward  contracts  under two  circumstances.  First,
when a Fund enters into a contract for the purchase or sale of a security quoted
or  denominated in a foreign  currency,  it may desire to "lock in" the price of
the security.  This is accomplished by entering into a forward  contract for the
purchase or sale,  for a fixed  amount of the foreign  currency  involved in the
underlying security transaction  ("transaction hedging").  Such forward contract
transactions  will  enable the Fund to protect  itself  against a possible  loss
resulting  from an adverse  change in the  relationship  between  the  different
currencies  during the period between the date the security is purchased or sold
and the date of payment for the security.

     Second,  when Wright  believes  that the currency of a  particular  foreign
country may suffer a decline,  a Fund may enter into a forward  contract to sell
the amount of  foreign  currency  approximating  the value of some or all of the
securities quoted or 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.  The future  value of such  securities  in foreign
currencies  will change as a consequence of  fluctuations in the market value of
those  securities  between the date the forward contract is entered into and the
date  it  matures.   The   projection  of  currency   exchange   rates  and  the
implementation  of a short-term  hedging  strategy are highly  uncertain.  As an
operating  policy,  the Funds do not intend to enter into forward  contracts for
such hedging  purposes on a regular or continuous  basis, and will not do so if,
as a  result,  more  than 50% of the  value of a Fund's  total  assets  would be
committed to the consummation of such contracts. A Fund will also not enter into
such  forward  contracts  or maintain a net  exposure to such  contracts  if the
contracts  would  obligate the Fund to deliver an amount of foreign  currency in
excess  of the  value  of the  Fund's  securities  or  other  assets  quoted  or
denominated in that currency.


     The Fund's custodian will place cash or liquid,  high grade debt securities
in a segregated  account.  The amount of such segregated assets will be at least
equal to the value of a Fund's total assets  committed  to the  consummation  of
forward contracts  involving the purchase of foreign  currency.  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 amount will equal the amount of the Fund's  commitments with respect to such
contracts.

     A Fund  generally  will not enter  into a forward  contract  with a term of
greater than one year. At the maturity of a forward contract, the Fund may elect
to sell the  portfolio  security  and make  delivery  of the  foreign  currency.
Alternatively,  the Fund may retain the security and terminate  its  contractual
obligation to deliver the foreign currency by purchasing an identical offsetting
contract from the same currency trader.

     It is impossible  to forecast with  precision the market value of portfolio
securities  at the  expiration  of a forward  contract.  Accordingly,  it may be
necessary for a Fund to purchase  additional foreign currency on the spot market
(and bear the expense of such purchase) if the Fund intends to sell the security
and the market value of the security is less than the amount of foreign currency
that the Fund is obligated to deliver.  Conversely,  it may be necessary to sell
on the spot market some of the foreign  currency  received  upon the sale of the
portfolio  security if its market value  exceeds the amount of foreign  currency
that the Fund is obligated to deliver.

     If a Fund  retains the  portfolio  security  and  engages in an  offsetting
transaction,  the Fund  will  incur a gain or loss (as  described  below) to the
extent  that there has been a change in  forward  contract  prices.  If the Fund
engages  in an  offsetting  transaction,  it may  subsequently  enter into a new
forward  contract to sell the foreign  currency.  Should forward contract prices
decline  during  the  period  between  the date the Fund  enters  into a forward
contract  for the sale of the  foreign  currency  and the date it enters into an
offsetting  contract  for the  purchase of the foreign  currency,  the Fund 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
contracts  prices  increase,  the Fund will 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.
<PAGE>

     A Fund will not speculate in forward  contracts and will limit its dealings
in such contracts to the transactions  described above. Of course, a Fund is not
required  to  enter  into  such  transactions  with  respect  to  its  portfolio
securities quoted or denominated in a foreign currency and will not do so unless
deemed  appropriate  by Wright.  This method of protecting the value of a Fund's
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 the Fund can achieve at some future time.  Additionally,
although  such  contracts  tend to minimize the risk of loss due to a decline in
the value of the hedged  currency,  they also tend to limit any  potential  gain
which might be realized if the value of such currency increases.

     A Fund's foreign  currency  transactions may be limited by the requirements
of  Subchapter  M of  the  Internal  Revenue  Code  of  1986,  as  amended,  for
qualification as a regulated investment company.

                  execute proxies), to consent to the reorganization,  merger or
                  consolidation  of any  company,  or to  consent to the sale or
                  lease of all or  substantially  all of the property and assets
                  of any company to any other  company;  to exchange  any of the
                  securities of any company for the securities, including shares
                  of  stock,  issued  therefor  upon  any  such  reorganization,
                  merger,   consolidation,   sale  or  lease;  to  exercise  any
                  conversion or  subscription  privileges,  rights,  options and
                  warrants incident to the ownership of any security owned by it
                  or acquired therewith;  to hold any securities acquired in the
                  name of the  custodian  of the assets of the Trust,  or in the
                  name of its  nominee  or a  nominee  of the  Trust,  or in any
                  manner permitted  herein or in the By-Laws;  to lend portfolio

                  (k) To hold any security or property in a form not  indicating
                  any trust, whether in bearer, unregistered or other negotiable

                  or a  nominee  or  nominees  of the  Trust or of a  custodian,
                  subject in either case to proper  safeguards  according to the
                  usual practice of Massachusetts  trust companies or investment
                  companies.

                  (l) To compromise,  arbitrate,  or otherwise  adjust claims of
                  the  Trust in favor or  against  the  Trust or any  matter  in

                  Shareholders  in the  manner  hereinafter  provided  for,  the
                  amount of such distributions and their payment to be solely at
                  the  discretion  of the Trustees,  subject to the  limitations
                  otherwise contained in this Declaration of Trust.

                  (n) To pay any and all  taxes or liens of  whatever  nature or
                  kind imposed upon or against the Trust or any part thereof, or
                  imposed  upon  any of the  Trustees  herein,  individually  or
                  jointly,  by reason of the Trust, or of the business conducted
                  by said Trustees under the terms of this Declaration of Trust,
                  out of the funds of the Trust available for such purpose.

                  (o)  To  engage  in and to  prosecute,  compound,  compromise,

                  relating  to the Trust,  and out of the assets of the Trust to
                  pay, or to satisfy,  any debts, claims or expenses incurred in
                  connection therewith,  including those of litigation, upon any
                  evidence  that the  Trustees may deem  sufficient.  The powers
                  aforesaid  are to include  any  actions,  suits,  proceedings,
                  disputes,  claims,  demands  and things  relating to the Trust
                  wherein any of the Trustees may be named individually, but the
                  subject  matter of which  arises by reason of business for and
                  on behalf of the Trust.

                  (p) To buy or join with any  person or  persons  in buying the
                  property   of   any   corporation,   association,   or   other
                  organization  any of the  securities  of which are included in
                  the Trust,  or any  property in which the  Trustees,  as such,
                  shall have or may hereafter acquire an interest,  and to allow
                  the title to any property so bought to be taken in the name or
                  names of, and to be held by,  such  person,  or persons as the
                  Trustees shall name or approve.

                  (q) From  time to time in  their  discretion  to  enter  into,
                  modify  and  terminate   agreements   with  Federal  or  state
                  regulatory authorities,  which agreements may restrict but not
                  amplify  their powers under this  Declaration  of Trust.  Such
                  agreements  shall be signed by all the  Trustees  for the time
                  being and shall, during their  effectiveness,  be binding upon
                  the  Trustees  as  fully  as  though   incorporated   in  this
                  Declaration of Trust.

                  (r) To borrow  money  and in this  connection  issue  notes or
                  other  evidence  of  indebtedness;  to  secure  borrowings  by

         The foregoing enumeration of specific powers shall not be held to limit
or restrict in any manner the general powers of the Trustees.

         No one dealing with the Trustees  shall be under any obligation to make
any  inquiry  concerning  the  authority  of  the  Trustees,  or to  see  to the
application of any payments made or property transferred to the Trustees or upon
their order.  The Trustees may authorize  one of their number to sign,  execute,
acknowledge,  and deliver any note, deed, certificate or other instrument in the
name of,  and in  behalf  of,  the  Trust,  and  upon  such  authorization  such
signature,  acknowledgment  or delivery  shall have full force and effect as the
act of all of the Trustees.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                              BENEFICIAL INTEREST

         Section 1. Shares of Beneficial Interest The beneficial interest in the
Trust shall at all times be divided  into an  unlimited  number of  transferable
shares (hereinafter  referred to as the "Shares" and individually as a "Share"),
without par value.  The  Trustees  may, in their  discretion  and as provided by
Section 1A of this Article VI, authorize the division of Shares into two or more
series,  and the Trustees may vary the relative rights and  preferences  between
different  series.  Each  Share of a series  represents  an equal  proportionate
interest in the Trust with each other Share  outstanding.  The Trustees may from
time to time  divide or  combine  the  Shares  into a greater  or lesser  number
without thereby changing the  proportionate  beneficial  interests in the Trust.
Contributions to the Trust may be accepted for, and Shares shall be redeemed as,
whole Shares and/or  fractional  Shares as the Trustees may in their  discretion
determine.  The  Trustees  may issue  certificates  of  beneficial  interest  to
evidence ownership of such Shares as they may determine from time to time.

         Section 1A. Series Designation The Trustees,  in their discretion,  may
authorize  the  division of Shares into two or more  series,  and the  different
series shall be established and  designated,  and the variations in the relative
rights  and  preferences  as between  the  different  series  shall be fixed and
determined by the Trustees;  provided, that all Shares shall be identical except
that there may be variations so fixed and determined between different series as
to  investment  objective,   investment  policies,   purchase  price,  right  of
redemption,  special and  relative  rights as to dividends  and on  liquidation,
conversion  rights,  and  conditions  under which the several  series shall have
separate voting rights.  All references to Shares in this  Declaration  shall be
deemed to be shares of any or all series as the context may require.

         If the  Trustee  shall  divide the Shares of the Trust into two or more
series, the following provisions shall be applicable:

                  (a) The number of  authorized  Shares and the number of Shares
                  of each  series  that may be issued  shall be  unlimited.  The
                  Trustees may classify or reclassify any unissued Shares or any
                  Shares previously issued and reacquired of any series into one
                  or more series that may be  established  and  designated  from
                  time to time. The Trustees may hold as treasury shares (of the
                  same or some other series), reissue for such consideration and
                  on such terms as they may  determine,  or cancel any Shares of
                  any series  reacquired by the Trust at their  discretion  from
                  time to time.

                  (b) All  consideration  received by the Trust for the issue or
                  sale of  Shares  of a  particular  series,  together  with all
                  assets in which such  consideration is invested or reinvested,
                  all income, earnings, profits, and proceeds thereof, including
                  any proceeds derived from the sale, exchange or liquidation of
                  such  assets,  and any  funds  or  payments  derived  from any
                  reinvestment  of such  proceeds in whatever  form the same may
                  be, shall irrevocably  belong to that series for all purposes,
                  subject  only to the  rights of  creditors  and  except as may
                  otherwise be required by applicable  tax laws, and shall be so
                  recorded upon the books of account of the Trust.  In the event
                  that there are any  assets,  income,  earnings,  profits,  and
                  proceeds  thereof,  funds or  payments  which are not  readily
                  identifiable  as  belonging  to  any  particular  series,  the
                  Trustees  shall  allocate  them  among  any one or more of the
                  series  established  and designated  from time to time in such
                  manner  and on such basis as they,  in their sole  discretion,
                  deem fair and equitable.  Each such allocation by the Trustees
                  shall be conclusive and binding upon the  shareholders  of all
                  series for all purposes.


<PAGE>



                  (c) The assets  belonging to each  particular  series shall be
                  charged with the  liabilities  of the Trust in respect of that
                  series  and  all   expenses,   costs,   charges  and  reserves
                  attributable  to that  series,  and any  general  liabilities,
                  expenses,  costs,  charges or  reserves of the Trust which are
                  not readily identifiable as belonging to any particular series
                  shall be  allocated  and charged by the  Trustees to and among
                  any one or more of the series  established and designated from
                  time to time in such manner and on such basis as the  Trustees
                  in  their  sole  discretion  deem  fair  and  equitable.  Each
                  allocation  of  liabilities,   expenses,  costs,  charges  and
                  reserves by the Trustees  shall be conclusive and binding upon
                  the holders of all series for all purposes. The Trustees shall
                  have full discretion,  to the extent not inconsistent with the
                  Investment  Company Act of 1940, to determine  which items are
                  capital;  and each such  determination and allocation shall be
                  conclusive   and   binding   upon   the   Shareholders.    The
                  establishment and designation of any series of Shares shall be
                  effective  upon  the  execution  by a  majority  of  the  then
                  Trustees of an instrument setting forth such establishment and
                  designation  and the relative  rights and  preferences of such
                  series,  or as otherwise  provided in such instrument.  At any
                  time that there are no Shares  outstanding  of any  particular
                  series previously established and designated, the Trustees may
                  by an  instrument  executed  by a  majority  of  their  number
                  abolish  that  series and the  establishment  and  designation
                  thereof.  Each instrument  referred to in this paragraph shall
                  constitute an amendment to this Declaration in accordance with
                  Section  7 of  Article  XIV  hereof,  and a copy of each  such
                  instrument  shall be filed in  accordance  with  Section  5 of
                  Article XIV hereof.

         Section  2.  Ownership  of Shares  The  ownership  of  Shares  shall be
recorded in the books of the Trust or of a transfer agent. The Trustees may make
such  rules and adopt  such  procedures  as they  consider  appropriate  for the
transfer of shares and similar matters.  The record books of the Trust or of any
transfer agent,  as the case may be, shall be conclusive  evidence as to who are
the  holders of Shares and as to the number of Shares  held from time to time by
each such holder.

         Section  3.   Investment  in  the  Trust  The  Trustees   shall  accept
investments  in the Trust from such  persons  and on such terms as they may from
time to time authorize.  After the date of the initial  contribution of capital,
the number of Shares representing the initial contribution may, in the Trustees'
discretion, be considered as outstanding and the amount received by the Trustees
on  account  of the  contribution  shall be  treated  as an asset of the  Trust.
Subsequent  investments  in the Trust  shall be  credited  to the  Shareholder's
account in the form of full and fractional  shares of the Trust at the net asset
value per share as determined in accordance  with Article XII hereof;  provided,
however, that the Trustees may, in their sole discretion,  impose a sales charge
upon investments in the Trust.

         Section 4. Preemptive Rights  Shareholders  shall have no preemptive or
other right to subscribe to any additional  Shares or other securities issued by
the Trust,  except as the Trustees may  determine  with respect to any series of
Shares.

                                  ARTICLE VII

                               CUSTODY OF ASSETS

         The Trustees  shall at all times employ a bank or trust company  having
aggregate capital, surplus and undivided profits (as shown in its last published
report)  of  at  least  two  million  dollars  ($2,000,000)  as  custodian  (the
"Custodian")  with  authority  as its agent,  but subject to such  restrictions,
limitations and other requirements, if any, as may be contained in the By-Laws:


<PAGE>




                  (a) To hold the securities owned by the Trust and deliver the
                  same upon written order;

                  (b) To receive and receipt for any moneys due to the Trust and
                  deposit  the same in its own  banking  department  or,  as the
                  Trustees  may  direct,  in any bank or trust  company  in good
                  standing organized under and by the laws of the United States,
                  or of any state thereof,  approved by the Custodian,  provided
                  that all such  deposits  shall be subject only to the draft or
                  order of the Custodian; and

                  (c) To disburse such funds upon orders or vouchers.

         The Trustees may also employ such Custodian as its agent:

                  (a) To keep the books and accounts of the Trust and furnish 
                  clerical and accounting services; and

                  (b) To  compute  the net asset  value per share in  accordance
                  with the provision of Article XII hereof.

         All of the  foregoing  services  shall be performed  upon such basis of
compensation as may be agreed upon between the Trustees and the Custodian. If so
directed  by vote of the holders of a majority of the  outstanding  Shares,  the
Custodian  shall  deliver  and pay over all  property of the Trust held by it as
specified in such vote.

         The Trustees  may also  authorize  the  Custodian to employ one or more
subcustodians  from time to time to perform such of the acts and services of the
Custodian  and upon such terms and  conditions as may be agreed upon between the
Custodian and such sub-custodian and approved by the Trustees.

         Subject to such rules,  regulations  and orders as the  Securities  and
Exchange  Commission (the  "Commission")  may adopt, the Trustees may direct the
Custodian  to deposit  all or any part of the  securities  in a  depository  and
clearing  system  established  by a national  securities  exchange or a national
securities  association  registered  with the  Commission  under the  Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as from time to time amended,  or such other person as may
be permitted by the  Commission,  or otherwise in accordance with the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as from time to time amended (the "1940 Act"),  pursuant to
which  system all  securities  of any  particular  class or series of any issuer
deposited  within the system are treated as fungible and may be  transferred  or
pledged by  bookkeeping  entry  without  physical  delivery of such  securities,
provided  that all such deposits  shall be subject to  withdrawal  only upon the
order of the Trust. The Trustees may also authorize the deposit with one or more
eligible  foreign  custodians  of all or part  of the  Trust's  foreign  assets,
securities,  cash and cash equivalents in amounts reasonably necessary to effect
the Trust's  foreign  investment  transactions,  in accordance  with such rules,
regulations and orders as the Commission may adopt.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                                   CONTRACTS

         Section 1. Manager The Trustees  may in their  discretion  from time to
time enter into a management  contract  whereby the other party to such contract
shall undertake to furnish to the Trustees such management, investment advisory,
statistical and research facilities and services and


<PAGE>



such  other  facilities  and  services,  if any,  and all upon  such  terms  and
conditions as the Trustees may in their  discretion  determine.  Notwithstanding
any  provisions  of this  Declaration  of Trust,  the Trustees may authorize the
Manager  (subject to such general or specific  instructions  as the Trustees may
from time to time adopt) to effect  purchases,  sales or  exchanges of portfolio
securities  of the Trust on behalf of the Trustees or may  authorize any officer
or  Trustee  to  effect  such   purchases,   sales  or  exchanges   pursuant  to
recommendations of the Manager (and all without further action by the Trustees).
Any such  purchases,  sales or exchanges shall be deemed to have been authorized
by all of the Trustees.

         The Trustees may also employ,  or authorize the Manager to employ,  one
or more investment advisers or sub-advisers from time to time to perform such of
the acts and services of the Manager and upon such terms and  conditions  as may
be agreed upon between the Manager and such  investment  adviser or  sub-adviser
and approved by the Trustees.

         Section 1A.  Administrator  The Trustees may in their  discretion  from
time to time enter into an  administration  agreement whereby the other party to
such agreement shall  undertake to manage the business  affairs of the Trust and
any and all additional  series of the Trust that may be established from time to
time by action of the  Trustees,  and  furnish  for the use of the Trust  office
space and necessary office facilities, equipment and personnel for administering
the affairs of the Trust.

         Section 2. Principal  Underwriter The Trustees may in their  discretion
from time to time enter into a contract, providing for the sale of the Shares of
the Trust,  whereby  the Trust may either  agree to sell the Shares to the other
party to the  contract  or  appoint  such other  party its sales  agent for such
shares (such other party being herein  sometimes called the  "underwriter").  In
either  case,  the  contract  shall be on such  terms and  conditions  as may be
prescribed in the By-Laws,  if any, and such further terms and conditions as the
Trustees may in their discretion  determine not inconsistent with the provisions
of this Article VIII, or of the By-Laws;  and such contract may also provide for
the  repurchase  or sale of shares of the Trust by such other party as principal
or as agent of the Trust.

         Section 2A. Plan of Distribution  The Trustees may in their  discretion
enter into a plan of  distribution  whereby  the Trust may  finance  directly or
indirectly  any  activity  which is  primarily  intended  to  result in sales of
Shares.  Such plan of distribution  may contain such terms and conditions as the
Trustees  may in their  discretion  determine  subject  to the  requirements  of
Section 12 of the 1940 Act,  Rule  12b-1  thereunder,  and any other  applicable
rules and regulations.

         Section 3.  Transfer  Agent The Trustees may in their  discretion  from
time to time enter  into a transfer  agency  and  shareholder  service  contract
whereby the other party shall undertake to furnish the Trustees  transfer agency
and shareholder services.  The contract shall be on such terms and conditions as
the  Trustees  may in  their  discretion  determine  not  inconsistent  with the
provisions  of this  Declaration  of Trust or of the  By-Laws.  The Trustees may
employ  such party as its agent to (a) keep the books and  accounts of the Trust
and furnish clerical and accounting  service and (b) compute the net asset value
per share in accordance with the provisions of Article XII hereof. Such services
may be covered by one or more contracts and be provided by one or more entities.

         Section 4. Parties to Contract Any contract of the character  described
in Sections 1, 1A, 2, 2A and 3 of this Article VIII or in Article VII hereof may
be entered into with any corporation,  firm, trust or association,  although one
or more of the  Trustees or  officers of the Trust may be an officer,  director,
trustee, shareholder, or member of such other party to the contract, and no such
contract shall be invalidated or rendered voidable by reason of the existence of
any such relationship,  nor shall any person holding such relationship be liable
merely by reason of such relationship for any loss or


<PAGE>



expense to the Trust under or by reason of said contract or accountable  for any
profit  realized  directly or indirectly  therefrom,  provided that the contract
when  entered  into  was  reasonable  and  fair  and not  inconsistent  with the
provisions  of this Article  VIII,  Article VII or the By-Laws.  The same person
(including a firm, corporation, trust, or association) may be the other party to
contracts  entered into pursuant to Sections 1, 1A, 2, 2A and 3 above or Article
VII, and any individual may be  financially  interested or otherwise  affiliated
with  persons who are parties to any or all of the  contracts  mentioned in this
Section 4.

         Section 5. Provisions and Amendments Any contract entered into pursuant
to Sections 1 and 2 of this Article VIII shall be consistent with and subject to
the  requirements  of  Section  15 of the 1940 Act and any  applicable  rules or
orders of the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to its continuance
in effect,  its  termination,  and the  method of  authorization  and  approval,
renewal or amendment thereof.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                   COMPENSATION AND REIMBURSEMENT OF TRUSTEES

         The  Trustees  shall be entitled to  reasonable  compensation  from the
Trust and shall be  reimbursed  from the Trust  estate  for their  expenses  and
disbursements  incurred  by them  in  connection  with  the  administration  and
management of the Trust, including, without limitation, interest expense, taxes,
fees and commissions of every kind, expenses of issue, repurchase and redemption
of shares including expenses  attributable to a program of periodic  repurchases
or redemptions,  expenses of registering and qualifying the Trust and its Shares
under Federal and state laws and  regulations,  charges of custodians,  transfer
agents,   and  registrars,   expenses  of  preparing  and  setting  up  in  type
prospectuses,  expenses of printing and distributing  prospectuses sent annually
to existing shareholders,  auditing and legal expense,  reports to Shareholders,
expenses  of  meetings  of  Shareholders  and  proxy  solicitations   therefore,
insurance expense,  association  membership dues, expenses primarily intended to
result in sales of  shares of the  Trust,  and such  non-recurring  items as may
arise, including litigation to which the Trust is a party and for all losses and
liabilities,  as well as such other  expenses as the Trustees may  determine are
properly chargeable to the Trust. This section shall not preclude the Trust from
directly paying any of the aforementioned fees and expenses.

                                   ARTICLE X

                                 SALE OF SHARES

         The  Trustees  shall have the power from time to time to issue and sell
or cause to be issued  and sold an  unlimited  number of Shares of any series of
the Trust for cash or for  property,  which  shall in every  case be paid to the
Custodian as agent of the Trust before the delivery of any  certificate for such
Shares.  The shares of any series of the Trust,  including  any shares which may
have been  repurchased by the Trust (herein  sometimes  referred to as "treasury
shares"),  may be sold at a price as specified in the current  prospectus of the
Trust.  The Trust may impose,  in  connection  with the  purchase  of Shares,  a
purchase  adjustment fee in such amount as may be fixed from time to time by the
Trustees and specified in the Trust's current prospectus.

         When an  underwriting  contract is in effect  pursuant to Article VIII,
Section  2, the time of sale  shall be the time when an  unconditional  order is
placed with the  underwriter.  Such  contract may provide for the sale of Shares
either at a price based on the net asset value  determined  next after the order
is placed with said  underwriter  or at a price based on a net asset value to be
determined at some


<PAGE>



later time, or at such other price as is assented to by the affirmative  vote of
the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares of the Trust. No Shares need
be offered to existing  Shareholders  before being offered to others.  No Shares
shall be sold by the Trust (although Shares previously contracted to be sold may
be issued upon payment therefor) during any period when the determination of net
asset  value  is  suspended  by  declaration  of the  Trustees  pursuant  to the
provisions of Article XII hereof.  In connection  with the acquisition by merger
or  otherwise  of all or  substantially  all the  assets  of a trust or  another
investment  company  ,  including  companies   classified  as  personal  holding
companies  under Federal  income tax laws, the Trustees may issue or cause to be
issued  Shares of the Trust and accept in payment  therefor  such assets at such
value as may be determined  by or under the direction of the Trustees,  provided
that such assets are of the  character in which the  Trustees  are  permitted to
invest the funds of the Trust.

                                   ARTICLE XI

                                  REDEMPTIONS

         Section 1.  Redemption In case any  Shareholder  of record of the Trust
desires to dispose of his Shares,  he may deposit at the office of the  transfer
agent or other  authorized  agent of the Trust a written  request  or such other
form of request as the Trustees may from time to time authorize, requesting that
the Trust  purchase  the  Shares in  accordance  with  this  Section  l; and the
Shareholder  so  requesting  shall be entitled to require the Trust to purchase,
and the Trust or the  underwriter  of the Trust shall  purchase his said Shares,
but only at the net  asset  value per share (as  determined  under  Article  XII
hereof).  Payment for such Shares shall be made by the Trust or the  underwriter
of the Trust to the  Shareholder  of record within seven (7) days after the date
upon which the request is received.  The Trustees may charge a redemption fee in
such  amount as may be fixed from time to time by the  Trustees  but which shall
not exceed one-half of one percent (1/2%) of the net asset value per share.

         Section 2. Manner of Payment  Payment for such Shares may at the option
of the Trustees or such officer or officers as they may duly  authorize  for the
purpose, in their complete discretion, be made in cash, or in kind, or partially
in cash and partially in kind. In case of payment in kind the Trustees, or their
delegate, shall have absolute discretion as to what security or securities shall
be distributed  in kind and the amount of the same, and the securities  shall be
valued for purposes of  distribution  at the figure at which they were appraised
in computing the asset value of the Shares,  provided that any  Shareholder  who
cannot  legally  acquire  securities  so  distributed  in kind by  reason of the
prohibitions of the 1940 Act shall receive cash.

         Section  3.  Suspension  of the Right of  Redemption  If,  pursuant  to
Article XII hereof,  the Trustees  declare a suspension of the  determination of
net asset  value,  the rights of  shareholders  (including  those who shall have
applied for  redemption  pursuant to Section 1 of this  Article XI but who shall
not yet have received payment) to have shares redeemed and paid for by the Trust
shall be suspended until the termination of such suspension is declared.  In the
case of a  suspension  of the right of  redemption,  a  Shareholder  may  either
withdraw his request for  redemption  or receive  payment based on the net asset
value existing after the termination of the suspension.

         Section  4.   Involuntary   Redemptions  The  Trustees  may  require  a
shareholder  to redeem his  Shares if the value of the Shares in his  account is
below $1,000.  The manner of effecting  such  involuntary  redemptions  shall be
determined from time to time by the Trustees.



<PAGE>



         If the Trustees shall, at any time and in good faith, be of the opinion
that direct or indirect ownership of Shares or other securities of the Trust has
or may become concentrated in any person to an extent which would disqualify the
Trust as a regulated  investment  company under the Internal  Revenue Code, then
the Trustees shall have the power by lot or other means deemed equitable by them
(i) to call for redemption by any such person a number,  or principal amount, of
Shares or other  securities  of the Trust  sufficient  to  maintain or bring the
direct or indirect  ownership  of Shares or other  securities  of the Trust into
conformity with the  requirements for such  qualification  and (ii) to refuse to
transfer or issue  Shares or other  securities  of the Trust to any person whose
acquisition  of the Shares or other  securities  of the Trust in question  would
result  in such  disqualification.  The  redemption  shall  be  effected  at the
redemption  price and in the manner provided in Sections 1 and 2 of this Article
XI.

         The  holders  of Shares or other  securities  of the Trust  shall  upon
demand  disclose to the  Trustees in writing  such  information  with respect to
direct and indirect  ownership of Shares or other securities of the Trust as the
Trustees deem  necessary to comply with the  provisions of the Internal  Revenue
Code, or to comply with the requirements of any other taxing authority.

                                  ARTICLE XII

                           NET ASSET VALUE PER SHARE

         The net asset  value of each  Share of the Trust  outstanding  shall be
determined  by the Trustees not less  frequently  than once on each day on which
the Trust is open for business, as of the close of trading on the New York Stock
Exchange or at such other time as the Trustees by resolution may determine.  The
power and duty to  determine  net asset value may be  delegated  by the Trustees
from time to time to one or more of the Trustees  and officers of the Trust,  to
the other party to any contract entered into pursuant to Article VIII hereof, or
to the Custodian or a transfer  agent.  For the purpose of this  Declaration  of
Trust,  any reference to the time at which a determination of net asset value is
made shall mean the time as of which the determination is made.

         The Trustees may declare a suspension of the determination of net asset
value to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act.

         The value of the assets of the Trust  shall be  determined  in a manner
approved by the  Trustees.  From the total value of said assets,  there shall be
deducted all indebtedness,  interest and taxes, payable or accrued, expenses and
management  charges  accrued to the appraisal  date,  net income  determined and
declared  as a  distribution  and all other  items in the nature of  liabilities
which shall be deemed  appropriate.  The resulting  amount which shall represent
the total  net  assets of the Trust  shall be  divided  by the  number of Shares
outstanding at the time as of which the  calculation is made and the quotient so
obtained shall be deemed to be the net asset value of the Shares.

                               ARTICLE XIII

            DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS; REDUCTION OF OUTSTANDING SHARES

         (a) The total of distributions  to Shareholders  paid in respect of any
one fiscal year,  subject to the exceptions noted below and other than dividends
resulting from stock splits or stock dividends,  shall be approximately equal to
(1) the net income,  exclusive  of profits or losses  realized  upon the sale of
securities  or other  property,  for such fiscal year,  determined in accordance
with generally accepted accounting  principles applicable to open-end investment
companies (which, if the Trustees so


<PAGE>



determine,  may be adjusted for net amounts  included as such accrued net income
in the  price of  Shares of the Trust  issued  or  repurchased).  Such  total of
distributions  may also include in the  discretion of the Trustees an additional
amount (2) which  shall not  substantially  exceed  the  excess of profits  over
losses  on  sales  of  securities  or  other  property  for  such  fiscal  year.
Notwithstanding  the above,  the Trustees  may,  upon the  establishment  of any
series of Shares,  provide for variations in the rights to distributions between
different series.  The decision of the Trustees as to what is income and what is
principal  shall be final,  and the decision of the Trustees as to what expenses
and charges of the Trust shall be charged  against  principal  and what  against
income shall be final, all subject to any applicable  provisions of the 1940 Act
and rules and regulations and orders of the Commission  promulgated  thereunder.
For the purpose of the limitation  imposed by this paragraph (a),  Shares issued
pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Article XIII shall be valued at the applicable
net asset value per share.

         Inasmuch as the  computation of net income and gains for Federal income
tax  purposes  may vary from the  computation  thereof on the  books,  the above
provisions  shall be  interpreted  to give to the  Trustees  the  power in their
discretion  to  distribute  for any fiscal  year as  ordinary  dividends  and as
capital gains  distributions,  respectively,  additional  amounts  sufficient to
enable the Trust to avoid or reduce liability for taxes.

         (b) The Trustees shall have power,  to the fullest extent  permitted by
the  laws  of   Massachusetts,   but  subject  to  the  limitation  as  to  cash
distributions imposed by paragraph (a) of this Article XIII, at any time or from
time to time to declare and cause to be paid dividends or  distributions  which,
at the election of the  Trustees,  may be accrued,  automatically  reinvested in
additional Shares (or fractions thereof) of the Trust or paid in cash.

         (c) Anything in this  instrument to the contrary  notwithstanding,  the
Trustees may at any time declare and distribute pro rata among the  Shareholders
a "stock  dividend" out of either unissued or treasury shares,  or both,  except
that the Trustees may, in conjunction  with the  establishment  of any series of
Shares, vary the right to receive a "stock dividend" between different series.

                                  ARTICLE XIV

                                 MISCELLANEOUS

         Section 1. Trust Not a Partnership It is hereby expressly declared that
a trust and not a partnership is created hereby. No Trustee hereunder shall have
any power to bind personally either the Trust's officers or any Shareholders.

         Section 2. Limitation of Personal Liability The Trustees shall not have
the power to bind the  Shareholders  or to call upon them or any of them for the
payment of any sum of money or any  assessment  whatever other than such sums as
the  Shareholders at any time personally agree to pay by way of subscription for
shares or otherwise. All persons or corporations dealing or contracting with the
Trustees as such shall have  recourse only to the Trust for the payment of their
claims or for the payment or satisfaction  of claims or obligations  arising out
of  such  dealings  or   contracts,   so  that  neither  the  Trustees  nor  the
Shareholders, nor the agents or attorneys of the Trust, past, present or future,
shall be personally  liable therefor.  In all contracts or instruments  creating
liability  it may be  expressly  stipulated,  either by such  reference  to this
instrument as shall accomplish such purpose or otherwise,  that the liability of
the Trustees and  Shareholders  under such  contracts  or  instruments  shall be
limited to the assets which may from time to time constitute the Trust.



<PAGE>



         Section 3.  Trustee's  Good Faith  Action,  Expert  Advice,  No Bond or
Surety The exercise by the Trustees of their powers and discretions hereunder in
good faith and with reasonable  care under the  circumstances  then  prevailing,
shall be binding upon everyone interested.  Subject to the provisions of Section
1, of this Article XIV and to applicable provisions of the By-Laws, the Trustees
shall not be liable for  errors of  judgment  or  mistakes  of fact or law.  The
Trustees may take advice of counsel or other experts with respect to the meaning
and operation of this  Declaration  of Trust,  and subject to the  provisions of
Section 1 of this Article XIV and to applicable provisions of the By-Laws, shall
be under no liability for any act or omission in accordance  with such advice or
for failing to follow such advice. Unless otherwise required by the By-Laws, the
Trustees  shall not be  required  to give any bond as such,  nor any surety if a
bond is required.

         Section 4.  Termination of Trust

                  (a) This Trust shall continue  without  limitation of time but
                  subject to the provisions of sub-sections  (b), (c) and (d) of
                  this Section 4.

                  (b)  The  Trust  may  merge  or  consolidate  with  any  other
                  corporation,  association,  trust or other organization or may
                  sell, lease or exchange all or substantially  all of the Trust
                  Property,  including  its  good  will,  upon  such  terms  and
                  conditions and for such  consideration  when and as authorized
                  by  a  majority  of  the   Trustees  and  at  any  meeting  of
                  Shareholders called for the purpose by the affirmative vote of
                  the  holders  of  two-thirds  of the  Shares  outstanding  and
                  entitled  to  vote,  or by an  instrument  or  instruments  in
                  writing  without a  meeting,  consented  to by the  holders of
                  two-thirds  of the Shares;  provided,  however,  that, if such
                  merger, consolidation,  sale, lease or exchange is recommended
                  by the Trustees, the vote or written consent of the holders of
                  a majority  of the shares  outstanding  and  entitled  to vote
                  shall  be  sufficient  authorization;  and  any  such  merger,
                  consolidation, sale, lease or exchange shall be deemed for all
                  purposes  to  have  accomplished  under  and  pursuant  to the
                  statutes of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

                  (c) Subject to the  approval of a majority of the  Trustees or
                  of a majority  of the  outstanding  Shares of the  Trust,  the
                  Trustees  may at any time sell and convert  into money all the
                  assets of the Trust.  Upon making provision for the payment of
                  all  outstanding  obligations,  taxes and  other  liabilities,
                  accrued  or  contingent,  of the  Trust,  the  Trustees  shall
                  distribute the remaining assets of the Trust ratably among the
                  holders of the outstanding Shares,  except as may be otherwise
                  provided by the Trustees with respect to any series of Shares.

                  (d)  Upon  completion  of the  distribution  of the  remaining
                  proceeds or the  remaining  assets as provided in  subsections
                  (b) and (c), the Trust shall  terminate and the Trustees shall
                  be  discharged of any and all further  liabilities  and duties
                  hereunder  and the right,  title and  interest  of all parties
                  shall be canceled and discharged.

         Section 5. Filing of Copies, References,  Headings and Counterparts The
original  or a copy of this  instrument,  or any  amendment  hereto  and of each
declaration  of trust  supplemental  hereto,  shall be kept at the office of the
Trust where it may be inspected by any  Shareholder.  A copy of this instrument,
of any amendment hereto, and of each supplemental  declaration of trust shall be
filed by the  Trustees  with the  Massachusetts  Secretary of State and with any
other  governmental  office where such filing may from time to time be required.
Anyone  dealing  with the Trust may rely on a  certificate  by an officer of the
Trust as to whether or not any such amendments or supplemental


<PAGE>



declarations  of trust have been made and as to any matters in  connection  with
the Trust  hereunder,  and with the same effect as if it were the original,  may
rely on a copy certified by a Trustee or an officer of the Trust to be a copy of
this instrument or of any such amendment  hereto or supplemental  declaration of
trust. In this  instrument or in any such amendment or supplemental  declaration
of trust,  references to this instrument,  and all expressions such as "herein",
"thereof"  and  "hereunder",  shall be  deemed  to refer to this  instrument  as
amended or affected by any such supplemental  declaration of trust. Headings are
placed herein for convenience of reference only and in case of any conflict, the
text  of  this  instrument,  rather  than  the  headings,  shall  control.  This
instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts  each of which shall be
deemed an original, but such counterparts shall constitute one instrument.

         Section 6.  Applicable  Law The Trust set forth in this  instrument  is
made in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts,  and it is created under and is to be
governed  by and  construed  and  administered  according  to the  laws  of said
Commonwealth.  The Trust shall be of the type  commonly  called a  Massachusetts
business  trust,  and without  limiting  the  provisions  hereof,  the Trust may
exercise all powers which are ordinarily exercised by such a trust.

         Section 7. Amendments The execution of an instrument  setting forth the
establishment and designation and the relative rights of any series of Shares in
accordance   with   Section  1A  of  Article  VI  hereof   shall,   without  any
authorization,  consent or vote of the Shareholders, effect an amendment of this
Declaration.  Except as otherwise  provided in this Section 7, if  authorized by
vote of a majority of the Trustees and a majority of the  outstanding  Shares of
the Trust  affected by the  amendment  (which  Shares  shall,  unless  otherwise
provided  by a vote  of a  majority  of the  Trustees,  vote  together  on  such
amendment  as a single  class),  or by any larger  vote which may be required by
applicable law or this Declaration of Trust in any particular case, the Trustees
may amend or otherwise supplement this Declaration.  The Trustees may also amend
this  Declaration  without  the  vote or  consent  of  Shareholders  if (a) such
amendment  would  not  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on the  interests  of
Shareholders  under this  Declaration  or (b) the Trustees  deem it necessary to
conform  this  Declaration  to the  requirements  of  applicable  Federal law or
regulations or the requirements of the regulated  investment  company provisions
of the Internal  Revenue Code,  but the Trustees shall not be liable for failing
to do so. Copies of any amendment or of the  supplemental  Declaration  of Trust
shall be filed as specified in Section 5 of this Article XIV.

         Nothing  contained in this  Declaration  shall permit the  amendment of
this  Declaration  to  impair  the  exemption  from  personal  liability  of the
Shareholders,  Trustees,  officers, employees and agents permit assessments upon
Shareholders.

         Notwithstanding  any  other  provision  hereof,  until  such  time as a
Registration  Statement  under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,  covering
the  first  public  offering  of  securities  of the  Trust  shall  have  become
effective,  this  Declaration may be terminated or amended in any respect by the
affirmative  vote of a majority of the Trustees or by an instrument  signed by a
majority of the Trustees.

         WHEREAS,   pursuant  to  an  Amended  and  Restated  Establishment  and
Designation  of Series dated January 13, 1995,  the Trustees of  EQUIFUND-WRIGHT
NATIONAL  FIDUCIARY EQUITY FUNDS, a Massachusetts  business trust (the "Trust"),
redesignated the twenty-one  existing separate series (or Funds) effective April

         WHEREAS,  the Trustees now desire to abolish three separate  series (or
Funds), i.e. Wright Centum 100-Global Fund, Wright Centum 100-International Fund
and Wright Centum 100-United  States Fund,  pursuant to Section 1A Article VI of
the Declaration of Trust.

         NOW, THEREFORE, the undersigned,  being at least a majority of the duly
elected and qualified  Trustees presently in office of the Trust acting pursuant
to Section 1A of Article VI of the  Declaration  of Trust,  hereby  redivide the
shares of beneficial  interest of the Trust into  nineteen (19) separate  series
(or Funds) of the Trust,  each Fund to have the  following  special and relative

         2.  Each  Fund  shall be  authorized  to  invest  in cash,  securities,
instruments  and other  property as from time to time  described  in the Trust's
then currently effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933
and the  Investment  Company Act of 1940.  Each share of beneficial  interest of
each Fund  ("share")  shall be  redeemable,  shall be  entitled  to one vote (or
fraction thereof in respect of a fractional share) on matters on which shares of
that Fund shall be  entitled to vote and shall  represent a pro rata  beneficial
interest  in  the  assets  allocated  to  that  Fund,  all  as  provided  in the
Declaration of Trust.  The proceeds of sales of shares of a Fund,  together with
any income and gain  thereon,  less any  diminution or expenses  thereof,  shall
irrevocably belong to that Fund, unless otherwise required by law. Each share of
a Fund shall be  entitled  to  receive  its pro rata share of net assets of that
Fund upon liquidation of that Fund.

         3.  Shareholders  of each Fund shall vote  separately as a class to the
extent  provided  in Rule  18f-2,  as from  time to time in  effect,  under  the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

         4. The assets and liabilities of the Trust shall be allocated among the
above  referenced  Funds  as  set  forth  in  Section  1A of  Article  VI of the
Declaration of Trust, except as provided below.

                  (a) Costs  incurred by the Trust in  connection  with  initial
organization  and  start-up,   including  Federal  and  state  registration  and
qualification  fees and expenses of the initial offering of Trust shares,  shall
be deferred and  amortized  over a period not to exceed five years from the date
of inception,  and such initial costs shall be borne by the respective  Funds of
the  Trust,  commencing  with the date they are  activated,  on a basis  that is
deemed equitable by the Trustees.

                  (b) The liabilities,  expenses,  costs, charges or reserves of
the  Trust  (other  than the  management  and  investment  advisory  fees or the
organizational expenses paid by the Trust) which are not readily identifiable as
belonging  to any  particular  Fund  shall be  allocated  among  the Funds on an
equitable basis as determined by the Trustees.

                  (c) The  Trustees  may from time to time in  particular  cases
make specific allocation of assets or liabilities among the Funds.

         5. A majority of the Trustees  (including any successor Trustees) shall
have  the  right at any time and  from  time to time to  reallocate  assets  and
expenses or to change the designation of any Fund now or hereafter  created,  or
to  otherwise  change the special and relative  rights of any such Fund,  and to
terminate any Fund or add  additional  Funds as provided in the  Declaration  of
Trust.

                                   ARTICLE I


                                  The Trustees

SECTION 1. Initial  Trustees,  Election and Term of Office. In the year 1990 or
1991,on a date fixed by the Trustees, the shareholders of the Trust shall elect
not less than three Trustees. The initial Trustees named in the Preamble of the
Declaration  of Trust dated July 14, 1989,  as from time to time  amended  (the
"Declaration  of Trust"), and any  additional  Trustees  appointed  pursuant to
Section 4 of this  Article I, shall  serve as  Trustees  until the 1990 or 1991
election  and until their  successors  are elected and  qualified. The Trustees
elected  at such  1990 or 1991  election  shall  serve as  Trustees during  the
lifetime of the Trust, except as otherwise provided below.

SECTION 2.  Number of Trustees. The number of Trustees shall be fixed by the 
Trustees, provided, however, that such number shall at no time exceed eighteen.

SECTION 3. Resignation and Removal. Any Trustee may resign his trust by written
instrument  signed by him and delivered to the other Trustees, which shall take
effect upon such delivery or upon such later date as is specified therein.  Any
Trustee  may be removed at any time by  written  instrument, signed by at least
two-thirds of the number of Trustees prior to such removal, specifying the date
when such removal shall become effective. Any Trustee who requests in writing to
be retired or who has become incapacitated  by illness or injury may be retired
by written  instruments  signed by a majority of the other Trustees, specifying
the date of his  retirement. A Trustee may be removed at any special meeting of
the shareholders of the Trust by a vote of two-thirds of the outstanding shares
of beneficial interest of the Trust (the "shares").

SECTION  4.  Vacancies.  In  case  of  the  declination,  death,  resignation,
retirement, removal, or inability of any of the Trustees,  or in case a vacancy
shall, by reason of an increase in number, or for any other reason,  exist, the
remaining  Trustees shall fill such vacancy by appointing  such other person as
they in their discretion shall see fit. Such appointment shall be evidenced by a
written instrument signed by a majority of the Trustees in office whereupon the
appointment shall take  effect.  Within three  months of such  appointment  the
Trustees shall cause notice of such appointment to be mailed to each shareholder
at his address as recorded on the books of the  Trustees. An  appointment  of a
Trustee may be made by the Trustees then in office and notice thereof mailed to
Shareholders  as  aforesaid in  anticipation  of a vacancy to occur by reason of
retirement, resignation or increase in number of Trustees  effective at a later
date, provided that said appointment shall become effective only at or after the
effective  date of  said  retirement, resignation  or  increase  in  number  of
Trustees. As soon as any Trustee so appointed  shall have  accepted this trust,
the trust estate shall vest in the new Trustee or  Trustees,  together  with the
continuing  Trustees,  without any further act or  conveyance,  and he shall be
deemed a Trustee  hereunder  and under the  Declaration  of Trust.  The power of
appointment  is subject to the  provisions  of Section  16(a) of the  Investment
Company Act of 1940, as from time to time amended (the "1940 Act").

vacancy  is filled,  or while any  Trustee is absent  from the  Commonwealth  of
Massachusetts  or, if not a  domiciliary  of  Massachusetts,  is absent from his
state of domicile, or is physically or mentally incapacitated by

hereunder and the certificate of the other Trustees of such vacancy, absence or
incapacity shall be conclusive, provided, however, that no vacancy shall remain
unfilled for a period longer than six calendar months.

SECTION 5. Temporary Absence of Trustee. Any Trustee may, by power of attorney,
delegate his power for a period not exceeding six months at any one time to any
other Trustee or Trustees, provided that in no case shall less than two Trustees
personally  exercise  the other  powers hereunder  except  as herein  otherwise
expressly provided.

SECTION 6. Effect of Death, Resignation, Removal, Etc. of a Trustee. The death,
declination, resignation, retirement, removal, or incapacity of the Trustees, or
any one of them, shall not operate to annul the Trust or to revoke any existing

By-Laws.

the meeting,  and the person  giving such notice  shall make an  affidavit  with
respect thereto. If any shareholder shall have failed to inform the Trust of his
post office  address,  no notice need be sent to him. No notice need be given to
any  shareholder  if a written  waiver of notice,  executed  before or after the
meeting by the shareholder or his attorney thereunto  authorized,  is filed with
the records of the meeting;  provided  that if a series of shares is entitled to
vote as a  separate  series  on any  matter,  then in the case of that  matter a
quorum shall  consist of the holders of a majority of the total number of shares
of the then issued and outstanding shares of that series entitled to vote at the
meeting.  Shares owned directly or indirectly by the Trust, if any, shall not be
deemed outstanding for this purpose.

SECTION 4. Quorum.  Except as otherwise  provided by law, to constitute a quorum
for the transaction of any business at any meeting of  shareholders,  there must
be present, in person or by proxy,  holders of a majority of the total number of
shares of the then issued and  outstanding  shares of the Trust entitled to vote
at such  meeting;  provided  that if a series of shares is entitled to vote as a
separate  series on any matter,  then in the case of that matter a quorum  shall
consist of the holders of a majority  of the total  number of shares of the then
issued and  outstanding  shares of that series  entitled to vote at the meeting.
Shares owned  directly or indirectly by the Trust,  if any,  shall not be deemed
outstanding for this purpose.

                  If a quorum,  as above  defined,  shall not be present for the
purpose of any vote that may properly come before any meeting of shareholders at
the time and place of any  meeting,  the  shareholders  present  in person or by
proxy and entitled to vote at such meeting on such matter  holding a majority of
the shares  present  entitled  to vote on such  matter may by vote  adjourn  the
meeting from time to time to be held at the same place  without  further  notice
than by  announcement  to be  given  at the  meeting  until a  quorum,  as above
defined,  entitled to vote on such matter, shall be present,  whereupon any such
matter may be voted upon at the meeting as though held when originally convened.

SECTION 5. Voting. At each meeting of the shareholders  every shareholder of the
Trust  who shall be  entitled  to one (1) vote in person or by proxy for each of

the shareholders entitled to vote at such meeting, or if the books be not closed
and no record date be fixed, at the time of the meeting.  The record holder of a
fraction of a share shall be entitled in like manner to a corresponding fraction
of a vote.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustees may, in conjunction with
the establishment of any series of shares,  establish conditions under which the
several series shall have separate voting rights or no voting rights.

approved at the meeting of the  shareholders at which said election is held, and
shall be by ballot if so requested by any shareholder  entitled to vote thereon.
The persons  receiving the greatest number of votes shall be deemed and declared
elected.  Except as otherwise  required by law or by the Declaration of Trust or
by these By-Laws,  all matters shall be decided by a majority of the votes cast,
as hereinabove  provided,  by persons entitled to vote thereon.  With respect to
the  submission of a management or investment  advisory  contract or a change in
investment  policy to the shareholders for any shareholder  approval required by
the Act,  such matter shall be deemed to have been  effectively  acted upon with
respect to any series of shares if the holders of the lesser of


<PAGE>

                                    -5- 


           (i) 67 per  centum  or  more  of the  shares  of that series  present
           or represented at the meeting  if the  holders  of more  than 50 per
           centum  of  the  outstanding  shares of  that series  are present or 
           represented  by proxy at the meeting or

           (ii) more than 50 per centum of the outstanding shares of that series

securities  of any other  series  affected by such matter (as  described in Rule
18-f2 under the Act) and (b) that such matter has not been  approved by the vote
of a majority of the outstanding  voting  securities of the Trust (as defined in
the Act).

SECTION 6.  Proxies.  Any  shareholder  entitled  to vote upon any matter at any
meeting of the  shareholders  may so vote by proxy,  but no proxy which is dated
more than six months  before the meeting  named therein shall be accepted and no
such proxy shall be valid after the final  adjournment  of such  meeting.  Every
proxy shall be in writing  subscribed by the  shareholder or his duly authorized
attorney and shall be dated, but need not be sealed,  witnessed or acknowledged.
Proxies shall be delivered to the Secretary or person acting as secretary of the
meeting  before being  voted.  A proxy with respect to stock held in the name of
two or more persons shall be valid if executed by one of them unless at or prior
to exercise  of the proxy the Trust  receives a specific  written  notice to the
contrary from any one of them. A proxy purporting to be executed by or on behalf
of a  shareholder  shall be deemed  valid unless  challenged  at or prior to its
exercise.

SECTION 7. Consents.  Any action which may be taken by shareholders may be taken
without a meeting if a majority of  shareholders  entitled to vote on the matter
(or such larger proportion  thereof as shall be required by law, the Declaration
or these  By-Laws for approval of such matter)  consent to the action in writing
and the  written  consents  are  filed  with  the  records  of the  meetings  of
shareholders. Such contents shall be treated for all purposes as a vote taken at
a meeting of shareholders.

                               Trustees Meetings

SECTION 1. Meetings. The Trustees may in their discretion provide for regular or
stated meetings of the Trustees.  Meetings of the Trustees other than regular or
stated meetings shall be held whenever  called by the Chairman,  President or by
any other  Trustee at the time being in office.  Any or all of the  Trustees may
participate  in  a  meeting  by  means  of a  conference  telephone  or  similar
communications  equipment  by means of which all  persons  participating  in the
meeting can hear each other at the same time,  and  participation  by such means
shall constitute presence in person at a meeting.

SECTION 2.  Notices.  Notice of regular  or stated  meetings  need not be given.
Notice  of the time and  place of each  meeting  other  than  regular  or stated
meetings  shall be given by the Secretary or by the Trustee  calling the meeting
and shall be mailed to each Trustee at least two (2) days before the meeting, or
shall be  telegraphed,  cabled,  or  wirelessed  to each Trustee at his business
address or personally  delivered to him at least one (1) day before the meeting.
Such notice may,  however,  be waived by all the  Trustees.  Notice of a meeting
need not be given to any Trustee if a written waiver of notice,  executed by him
before or after the meeting, is filed with the records of the meeting, or to any
Trustee  who  attends the meeting  without  protesting  prior  thereto or at its
commencement  the lack of notice to him.  A notice or waiver of notice  need not
specify the purpose of any special meeting.

SECTION 3. Consents. Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting
of the  Trustees  may be taken by the  Trustees  without a meeting  if a written
consent  thereto is signed by all the Trustees and filed with the records of the
Trustees' meetings. Such consent shall be treated as a vote at a meeting for all
purposes.

SECTION 4. Place of Meetings.  The Trustees may hold their  meetings  outside of
the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and may, to the extent permitted by law, keep
the books and  records of the Trust,  and provide  for the issue,  transfer  and
registration  of its stock,  outside of said State at such  places as may,  from
time to time, be designated by the Trustees.

SECTION 5.  Quorum and Manner of Acting.  A majority  of the  Trustees in office
shall be  present  in person at any  regular  stated or  special  meeting of the
Trustees in order to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at such
meeting and (except as otherwise  required by the Declaration of Trust, by these
By-Laws or by statute) the act of a majority of the Trustees present at any such
meeting, at which a quorum is present,  shall be the act of the Trustees. In the
absence of quorum,  a majority of the  Trustees  present may adjourn the meeting
from time to time  until a quorum  shall be  present.  Notice  of any  adjourned
meeting need not be given.


                                   ARTICLE VI

                         Shares of Beneficial Interest

SECTION 1.  Certificates  of  Beneficial  Interest.  Certificates  for shares of
beneficial interest of any series of the Trust, if issued, shall be in such form
as shall be  approved by the  Trustees.  They shall be signed by, or in the name
of, the Trust by the  President  and by the  Treasurer and may, but need not be,
sealed with seal of the Trust; provided, however, that where such certificate is
signed by a transfer  agent or a transfer clerk acting on behalf of the Trust or
a  registrar  other  than a  Trustee,  officer or  employee  of the  Trust,  the
signature of the President or Treasurer  and the seal may be facsimile.  In case
any officer or officers who shall have signed,  or whose facsimile  signature or
signatures shall have been used on any such  certificate or certificates,  shall
cease to be such  officer or  officers  of the Trust  whether  because of death,
resignation or otherwise,  before such  certificate or  certificates  shall have
been delivered by the Trust,  such  certificate or certificates may nevertheless
be  adopted  by the Trust and be issued  and  delivered  as though the person or
persons  who  signed  such   certificate  or  certificates  or  whose  facsimile
signatures  shall have been used  thereon  had not ceased to be such  officer or
officers of the Trust.

SECTION 2. Transfer of Shares. Transfers of shares of beneficial interest of the
Trust  shall be made only on the books of the Trust by the owner  thereof  or by
his attorney thereunto authorized by a power of attorney duly executed and filed
with the  Secretary  or a transfer  agent,  and only upon the  surrender  of any
certificate  or  certificates  for such  shares.  The Fund  shall not impose any
restrictions  upon the transfer of the shares of the Fund, but this  requirement
shall not prevent the charging of customary transfer agent fees.

SECTION 3. Transfer Agent and Registrar;  Regulations.  The Trust shall,  if and
whenever the Trustees shall so determine,  maintain one or more transfer offices
or agencies,  each in the charge of a transfer agent designated by the Trustees,
where  the  shares  of  beneficial  interest  of the  Trust  shall  be  directly
transferable.  The Trust shall, if and whenever the Trustees shall so determine,
maintain  one or more  registry  offices,  each  in the  charge  of a  registrar
designated  by the  Trustees,  where such  shares  shall be  registered,  and no
certificate  for shares of the Trust in respect of which a transfer agent and/or
registrar shall have been designated shall be valid unless countersigned by such
transfer

                                  -7-

agent and/or registered by such registrar. The principal transfer agent shall be
in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and shall have charge of the stock transfer
books,  lists and  records,  which shall be kept in  Massachusetts  in an office
which shall be deemed to be the stock transfer office of the Trust. The Trustees
may also make such  additional  rules and  regulations  as it may deem expedient
concerning the issue,  transfer and  registration of certificates  for shares of
the Trust.

SECTION 4. Closing of Transfer  Books and Fixing  Record Date.  The Trustees may
fix in  advance a time which  shall be not more than sixty (60) days  before the
date of any meeting of shareholders, or the date for the payment of any dividend
or the making of any  distribution  to shareholders or the last day on which the
consent or dissent of shareholders may be effectively expressed for any purpose,
as the record date for determining the  shareholders  having the right to notice
of and to vote at such meeting,  and any  adjournment  thereof,  or the right to
receive  such  dividend  or  distribution  or the right to give such  consent or
dissent,  and in such case only shareholders of record on such record date shall
have such right, notwithstanding any transfer of stock on the books of the Trust
after the record date. The Trustees may,  without fixing such record date, close
the transfer  books for all or any part of such period for any of the  foregoing
purposes.

SECTION 5. Lost, Destroyed or Mutilated  Certificates.  The holder of any shares
of the Trust  shall  immediately  notify the Trust of any loss,  destruction  or
mutilation  of  the  certificate  therefor,  and  the  Trustees  may,  in  their
discretion,  cause new  certificate or certificates to be issued to him, in case
of  mutilation  of  the  certificate,   upon  the  surrender  of  the  mutilated
certificate,  or,  in  case  of loss or  destruction  of the  certificate,  upon
satisfactory proof of such loss or destruction and, in any case, if the Trustees
shall so determine, upon the delivery of a bond in such form and in such sum and
with such surety or sureties as the Trustees may direct,  to indemnify the Trust
against any claim that may be made  against it on account of the alleged loss or
destruction of any such certificate.

SECTION 6.  Record  Owner of Stock.  The Trust  shall be  entitled  to treat the
person in whose  name any share of a series  of the Trust is  registered  on the
books of the Trust as the owner thereof, and shall not be bound to recognize any
equitable  or other  claim to or interest in such share or shares on the part of
any other person.


                                  ARTICLE VII

                                  Fiscal Year

                  The  fiscal  year of the  Trust  shall be the  calendar  year,
provided,  however,  that the  Trustees  may from time to time change the fiscal
year.


                                  ARTICLE VIII

                                      Seal

                  The  Trustees  may adopt a seal of the Trust which shall be in
such form and shall have such inscription  thereon as the Trustees may from time
to time prescribe.

                              Inspection of Books

                  The Trustees shall from time to time determine  whether and to
what  extent,  and at what  times and  places,  and under  what  conditions  and
regulations  the accounts and books of the Trust or any of them shall be open to
the inspection of the  shareholders;  and no shareholder shall have any right of
inspecting  any account or book or document of the Trust  except as conferred by
law or authorized by the Trustees or by resolution of the shareholders.


                                   ARTICLE X

                                   Custodian

                  The following  provisions shall apply to the employment of the
Custodian  pursuant  to  Article  VII of the  Declaration  of  Trust  and to any
contract entered into with the Custodian so employed:

           (a)     The Trustees shall cause to be delivered to the Custodian all
                   securities owned  by the  Trust or  to which  it may  become
                   entitled, and shall order  the  same  to be  delivered by the
                   Custodian only in completion of  a sale, exchange, transfer,
                   pledge, loan, or other disposition  thereof, against receipt
                   by  the   Custodian of  the  consideration  therefor  or  a 
                   certificate of deposit or  a receipt  of an issuer or of its
                   transfer agent  or to  a securities depository as defined in
                   Rule 17f-4  under  the  Investment  Company  Act  of 1940, as
                   amended, all as the Trustees  may generally  or from time to
                   time require or approve, or to a successor Custodian; and the
                   Trustees shall cause all funds owned by the Trust or to which
                   it may become entitled to be paid to the Custodian, and shall
                   order the same disbursed only for investment against delivery
                   of  the  securities  acquired,  or  in  payment  of expenses,
                   including  management  compensation,  and liabilities of the
                   Trust, including  distributions  to  shareholders,  or  to a
                   successor Custodian.

           (b)     In case of the resignation, removal or inability to serve of
                   any such Custodian,  the  Trustees  shall  promptly  appoint 
                   another bank or  trust company  meeting  the requirements of 
                   said Article VII as successor  Custodian.  The agreement with
                   the Custodian shall provide that the retiring Custodian shall
                   upon receipt of notice of such appointment, deliver the funds
                   and property of the Trust in its possession  to and  only to 
                   such successor, and that pending appointment of a successor
                   Custodian, or a vote of the shareholders to function without
                   a  Custodian,  the  Custodian  shall  not  deliver funds and
                   property of the  Trust to the Trustees, but may deliver them 
                   to  a  bank  or  trust  company  doing  business  in  Boston,
                   Massachusetts, of its own  selection,  having  an  aggregate
                   capital, surplus and undivided profits,  as shown by its last
                   published report,of not less than $2,000,000, as the property
                   of the Trust to be held under terms similar to those on which
                   they were held by the retiring Custodian.

                                   ARTICLE XI

                  Limitation of Liability and Indemnification

SECTION 1. Limitation of Liability. Provided they have exercised reasonable care
and have acted under the  reasonable  belief that their  actions are in the best
interest of the Trust,  the Trustees shall not be  responsible  for or liable in
any event for neglect or wrongdoing of them or any officer,  agent,  employee or
investment  adviser of the Trust,  but nothing  contained in the  Declaration of
Trust or herein  shall  protect any Trustee  against any  liability  to which he
would otherwise be subject by reason of willful  misfeasance,  bad faith,  gross
negligence  or reckless  disregard of the duties  involved in the conduct of his
office.

SECTION 2.  Indemnification of Trustees and Officers.  The Trust shall indemnify
each  person  who was or is a party or is  threatened  to be made a party to any
threatened,  pending or completed  action,  suit or  proceeding,  whether civil,
criminal,  administrative or investigative,  by reason of the fact that he is or
has been a Trustee,  officer,  employee or agent of the Trust, or is or has been
serving at the request of the Trust as a Trustee, director, officer, employee or
agent  of  another  corporation,  partnership,  joint  venture,  trust  or other
enterprise,  against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments,  fines and
amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection
with such action, suit or proceeding, provided that:

           (a)     such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably
                   believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
                   Trust,

           (b)     with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he had not
                   reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful,

           (c)     unless ordered by a court, indemnification shall be made only
                   as authorized in  the specific case upon a determination that
                   indemnification of the Trustee, officer, employee or agent is
                   proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable
                   standard of  conduct  set forth in subparagraphs (a) and (b)
                   above and (e) below, such determination to be made based upon
                   a review of readily  available  facts  (as opposed to a full
                   trial-type  inquiry)  by  (i)  vote  of  a  majority  of the
                   Disinterested Trustees acting on the matter (provided that a 
                   majority of the Disinterested Trustees then in office act on
                   the matter) or (ii) by independent legal counsel in a written
                   opinion.

           (d)     in the  case of an  action or suit by or in the right of the
                   Trust to procure a judgment in its favor, no indemnification
                   shall be made in respect of any  claim, issue or matter as to
                   which such person shall have been adjusted to be  liable for 
                   negligence or misconduct in the performance of his  duty  to
                   the Trust  unless  and  only  to the extent that the court in
                   which such action or suit is brought, or a court of equity in
                   the county in which the Trust has its principal office, shall
                   determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of
                   liability  but in view of all the circumstances of the case,
                   he is fairly and reasonably  entitled  to indemnity for such 
                   expenses which such court shall deem proper, and

           (e)     no indemnification or other protection shall be made or given
                   to any  Trustee or officer of the Trust against any liability
                   to the Trust or to its security  holders  to which he would 
                   otherwise  be  subject by reason  of  willful  misfeasance, 
                   bad faith, gross negligence or reckless   disregard  of  the
                   duties involved in the conduct of his office.

                                   -10-


                  Expenses (including  attorneys' fees) incurred with respect to
any  claim,  action,  suit  or  proceeding  of the  character  described  in the
preceding  paragraph  shall  be  paid  by the  Trust  in  advance  of the  final
disposition  thereof  upon  receipt  of an  undertaking  by or on behalf of such
person to repay such amount unless it shall  ultimately be determined that he is
entitled to be indemnified by the Trust as authorized by this Article,  provided
that either:

                  (1)      such  undertaking is secured by a surety bond or some
                           other appropriate security provided by the recipient,
                           or the Trust shall be insured  against losses arising
                           out of any such advances; or

                  (2)      a majority of the  Disinterested  Trustees  acting on
                           the  matter   (provided   that  a  majority   of  the
                           Disinterested  Trustees  act  on  the  matter)  or an
                           independent  legal counsel in a written opinion shall
                           determine,  based upon a review of readily  available
                           facts (as opposed to a full trial-type inquiry), that
                           there  is  reason  to  believe  that  the   recipient
                           ultimately will be found entitled to indemnification.

                  As used in this  Section 2, a  "Disinterested  Trustee" is one
who is not (i) an "Interested  Person", as defined in the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended,  of the Trust (including  anyone who has been exempted from
being an "Interested Person" by any rule, regulation, or order of the Securities
and  Exchange  Commission),  or (ii)  involved  in the  claim,  action,  suit or
proceeding.

                  The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment,
order,  settlement,  conviction,  or  upon  a plea  of  nolo  contendere  or its
equivalent,  shall not, of itself,  create a presumption that the person did not
act in good faith and in a manner which he  reasonably  believed to be in or not
opposed to the best  interests  of the Trust,  or with  respect to any  criminal
action or  proceeding,  had  reasonable  cause to believe  that his  conduct was
unlawful.

SECTION 3.  Indemnification  of Shareholders.  In case any shareholder or former
shareholder  shall be held to be personally liable solely by reason of his being
or having been a  shareholder  and not because of his acts or  omissions  or for
some  other  reason,  the  shareholder  or  former  shareholder  (or his  heirs,
executors,  administrators or other legal  representatives  or, in the case of a
corporation or other entity,  its corporate or other general successor) shall be
entitled  out of the  Trust  estate  to be held  harmless  from and  indemnified
against all loss and expense arising from such liability.  The Trust shall, upon
request by the  shareholder,  assume the  defense of any claim made  against any
shareholder  for any act or  obligation  of the Trust and satisfy  any  judgment
thereon.

                                  ARTICLE XII

                           Underwriting Arrangements

                  Any contract  entered into for the sale of shares of the Trust
pursuant to Article VIII,  Section 2 of the  Declaration  of Trust shall require
the other party thereto (hereinafter called the "underwriter") whether acting as
principal  or as agent to use  reasonable  efforts,  consistent  with the  other
business of the underwriter, to secure purchasers for the shares of the Trust.

                  The underwriter may be granted the right

                  (a)      To purchase as principal, from the Trust, at not less
                           than net asset  value per share,  the shares  needed,
                           but no  more  than  the  shares  needed  (except  for
                           clerical errors and errors of transmission),  to fill
                           unconditional orders for shares of the Trust received
                           by the underwriter.

                                      -11-


                  (b)      To purchase as principal,  from  shareholders  of the
                           Trust at not less than net asset value per share such
                           shares  as may be  presented  to  the  Trust,  or the
                           transfer  agent of the Trust,  for  redemption and as
                           may be  determined  by the  underwriter  in its  sole
                           discretion.

                  (c)      to resell any such shares purchased at not less than
                           net asset value per share.


                                  ARTICLE XIII

                             Report to Shareholders

                  The  Trustees  shall  at  least  semi-annually  submit  to the
shareholders  a  written  financial  report  of the  transactions  of the  Trust
including  financial  statements  which shall at least  annually be certified by
independent public accountants.


                                  ARTICLE XIV

                              Certain Transactions

SECTION 1. Long and Short Positions.  Except as hereinafter provided, no officer
or Trustee and no partner,  officer,  director or  shareholder of the manager or
investment  adviser  of the Trust or of the  underwriter  of the  Trust,  and no
manager or investment  adviser or underwriter  of the Trust,  shall take long or
short positions in the securities issued by the Trust.

           (a)   The foregoing provision shall not prevent the underwriter from
                 purchasing  from the Trust shares of the Trust from the Trust 
                 if such purchases are limited (except for reasonable allowances
                 for clerical  errors,  delays and  errors of  transmission and

                 the Trust at the price available to the public generally at the
                 moment of such purchase or, to the extent that any such person 
                 is a shareholder, at the price available to shareholders of the
                 Trust generally at the moment of such purchase, or as described
                 in the current Prospectus of the Trust.

                EQUIFUND--WRIGHT NATIONAL FIDUCIARY EQUITY FUNDS

                          INVESTMENT ADVISORY CONTRACT


     CONTRACT  made  this 25th day of  August, 1994,  between  EQUIFUND--WRIGHT
NATIONAL FIDUCIARY EQUITY FUNDS, a Massachusetts  business trust (the "Trust"),
on behalf of WRIGHT EQUIFUND--DUTCH  NATIONAL  FIDUCIARY  EQUITY  FUND,  WRIGHT
EQUIFUND--HONG  KONG NATIONAL FIDUCIARY EQUITY FUND,  WRIGHT  EQUIFUND--ITALIAN
NATIONAL FIDUCIARY EQUITY FUND and WRIGHT EQUIFUND--SPANISH  NATIONAL FIDUCIARY
EQUITY  FUND,  and any other  series of the Trust which the Adviser (as defined
below)  and the  Trust  shall  agree  from time to time to be  subject  to this
Agreement  (collectively,  the  "Funds"),  and  The  Winthrop  Corporation,  a
Connecticut  corporation doing  business  as  WRIGHT  INVESTORS'  SERVICE  (the
"Adviser"):
    
     1. Duties of the Adviser. The Trust, on behalf of each Fund, hereby employs
the Adviser to act as investment  adviser for and to manage the  investment  and
reinvestment of the assets of the Fund and,  except as otherwise  provided in an
administration   agreement,   to  administer  their  affairs,   subject  to  the
supervision  of the  Trustees of the Trust,  for the period and on the terms set
forth in this Contract.

     The Adviser hereby accepts such employment, and undertakes to afford to the
Trust the advice and assistance of the Adviser's  organization  in the choice of
investments  and in the  purchase  and sale of  securities  for each Fund and to
furnish  for  the  use of the  Trust  office  space  and  all  necessary  office
facilities,  equipment and personnel for servicing the  investments of the Funds
and for  administering  the Trust's  affairs and to pay the salaries and fees of
all  officers  and  Trustees  of the  Trust  who are  members  of the  Adviser's
organization and all personnel of the Adviser  performing  services  relating to
research and investment activities. The Adviser shall for all purposes herein be
deemed to be an independent  contractor and shall, except as otherwise expressly
provided or  authorized,  have no authority to act for or represent the Trust in
any way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Trust. 

      The Adviser shall provide the Trust with such investment management and
supervision  as the Trust may from time to time consider  necessary for the
proper supervision of the Funds. As investment adviser to the Funds, the Adviser
shall furnish  continuously an investment  program and shall determine from time
to time what securities  shall be purchased,  sold or exchanged and what portion
of each Fund's assets shall be held uninvested, subject always to the applicable
restrictions of the Declaration of Trust, By-Laws and registration  statement of
the Trust under the  Investment  Company  Act of 1940,  all as from time to time
amended.  The  Adviser  is  authorized,  in its  discretion  and  without  prior
consultation  with the Trust, but subject to each Fund's  investment  objective,
policies and restrictions, to buy, sell, lend and otherwise trade in any stocks,
bonds, options and other securities and investment  instruments on behalf of the
Funds, to purchase,  write or sell options on securities,  futures  contracts or
indices on behalf of the Funds, to enter into commodities contracts on behalf of
the Funds, including contracts for the future delivery of securities or currency
and futures contracts on securities or other indices, and to execute any and all
agreements and  instruments and to do any and all things  incidental  thereto in
connection with the management of the Funds. Should the Trustees of the Trust at
any time, however,  make any specific  determination as to investment policy for
the period,  if any,  specified in such notice or until similarly  notified that
such  determination  has been revoked.  The Adviser shall take, on behalf of the
Funds,  all actions  which it deems  necessary or  desirable  to  implement  the
investment policies of the Trust and of each Fund.


                                                        

<PAGE>



     The Adviser  shall place all orders for the  purchase or sale of  portfolio
securities  for the  account of a Fund with  brokers or dealers  selected by the
Adviser,  and to that end the Adviser is  authorized as the agent of the Fund to
give  instructions  to the  custodian of the Fund as to deliveries of securities
and payments of cash for the account of a Fund or the Trust.  In connection with
the  selection of such  brokers or dealers and the placing of such  orders,  the
Adviser  shall  use its  best  efforts  to seek to  execute  portfolio  security
transactions at prices which are  advantageous to the Fund and (when a disclosed
commission is being  charged) at reasonably  competitive  commission  rates.  In
selecting  brokers or dealers  qualified  to execute a  particular  transaction,
brokers or dealers may be  selected  who also  provide  brokerage  and  research
services  and  products  (as those  terms are  defined in  Section  28(e) of the
Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934) to the Adviser  and the Adviser is  expressly
authorized  to cause the Funds to pay any  broker or dealer  who  provides  such
brokerage  and  research  service  and  products a  commission  for  executing a
security  transaction  which is in excess of the  amount of  commission  another
broker or dealer  would have  charged  for  effecting  that  transaction  if the
Adviser determines in good faith that such amount of commission is reasonable in
relation to the value of the  brokerage and research  services  provided by such
broker or dealer,  viewed in terms of either that particular  transaction or the
overall  responsibilities which the Adviser and its affiliates have with respect
to  accounts  over which they  exercise  investment  discretion.  Subject to the
requirement set forth in the second  sentence of this paragraph,  the Adviser is
authorized  to  consider,  as a factor in the  selection of any broker or dealer
with whom  purchase or sale  orders may be placed,  the fact that such broker or
dealer  has  sold or is  selling  shares  of the  Fund or the  Trust or of other
investment companies sponsored by the Adviser.
              
     2. Compensation of the Adviser.  For the services,  payments and facilities
to be furnished hereunder by the Adviser, the Trust on behalf of each Fund shall
pay to the  Adviser on the last day of each month a fee equal to the  percentage
of the average daily net assets of each Fund of the Trust  throughout the month,
computed in accordance with the Trust's  Declaration of Trust and any applicable
votes of the Trustees of the Trust, as shown in the following table:


                           ANNUAL ADVISORY FEE RATES

                      Under        $500 Million
                      $500         to                Over
                      Million      $1 Billion       $1 Billion
                      -----------------------------------------
                      0.75%        0.73%            0.68%

     In case of initiation or termination of the Contract  during any month with
respect  to  any  Fund,  each  Fund's  fee  for  that  month  shall  be  reduced
proportionately  on the basis of the number of calendar  days  during  which the
Contract is in effect and the fee shall be computed  upon the average net assets
for the business  days the Contract is so in effect for that month. 

     The Adviser may, from  time  to  time,  waive  all  or a part of the above
compensation.

     3. Allocation of Charges and Expenses. It is understood that the Trust will
pay all its  expenses  other  than those  expressly  stated to be payable by the
Adviser  hereunder,  which expenses payable by the Trust shall include,  without
implied  limitation  (i) expenses of  maintaining  the Trust and  continuing its

services to the Trust, (xv) expenses for servicing shareholder  accounts,  (xvi)

to any one or more  distribution  plans  adopted by the Trust  pursuant  to Rule
12b-1 under the Investment  Company Act of 1940,  (xix) the  administration  fee
payable to the Trust's  administrator  and (xx) such  nonrecurring  items as may
arise,  including  expenses incurred in connection with litigation,  proceedings
and  claims  and the  obligation  of the Trust to  indemnify  its  Trustees  and
officers with respect thereto.

     4.  Other  Interests.   It  is  understood  that  Trustees,   officers  and
shareholders  of the Trust are or may be or become  interested in the Adviser as
directors,  officers,  employees,  stockholders or otherwise and that directors,
officers  employees  and  stockholders  of the  Adviser  are or may be or become
similarly  interested  in the  Trust,  and that  the  Adviser  may be or  become
interested in the Trust as a shareholder  or  otherwise.  It is also  understood
that directors,  officers,  employees and stockholders of the Adviser are or may
be  or  become  interested  (as  directors,   trustees,   officers,   employees,
stockholders  or otherwise) in other companies or entities  (including,  without
limitation,  other investment companies) which the Adviser may organize, sponsor
or acquire, or with which it may merge or consolidate, and which may include the
words "Wright" or "Wright Investors" or any combination thereof as part of their
names,  and that the Adviser or its  subsidiaries  or affiliates  may enter into
advisory or management  agreements or other contracts or relationships with such
other  companies or entities. 

     5.  Limitation of Liability of the Adviser.  The services of the Adviser to
the Trust are not to be deemed to be exclusive, the Adviser being free to render
services to others and engage in other  business  activities.  In the absence of
willful  misfeasance,  bad faith,  gross  negligence  or reckless  disregard  of
obligations  or duties  hereunder on the part of the Adviser,  the Adviser shall
not be subject to liability to the Trust or to any  shareholder of the Trust for
any act or  omission in the course of, or  connected  with,  rendering  services
hereunder or for any losses which may be sustained in the  purchase,  holding or
sale of any security.

     6.   Sub-Investment   Advisers.   The   Adviser  may  employ  one  or  more
sub-investment  advisers  from  time to time to  perform  such of the  acts  and
services  of the  Adviser,  including  the  selection  of  brokers or dealers to
execute the Trust's  portfolio  security  transactions,  and upon such terms and
conditions  as may be agreed upon  between  the Adviser and such  sub-investment

provided, shall remain in full force and effect as to each Fund to and including
February  28,  1996 and shall  continue in full force and effect as to each Fund
indefinitely thereafter, but only so long as such continuance after February 28,
1996 is specifically approved at least annually (i) by the Trustees of the Trust
or by vote of a majority of the outstanding

voting  securities of that Fund and (ii) by the vote of a majority of those
Trustees  of the Trust who are not  interested  persons of the Adviser or (other
than as a Trustee) the Trust cast in person at a meeting  called for the purpose
of voting on such approval.
             
     Either  party  hereto may,  at any time on sixty (60) days'  prior  written
notice to the other, terminate this Contract as to any Fund, without the payment
of any penalty, by action of its Board of Directors or Trustees, as the case may
be,  and the Trust may,  at any time upon such  written  notice to the  Adviser,
terminate this Contract as to any Fund by vote of a majority of the  outstanding
voting  securities of that Fund. This Contract shall terminate  automatically in
the event of its assignment.

     8. Amendments of the Contract.  This Contract may be amended as to any Fund
by a writing signed by both parties  hereto,  provided that no amendment to this
Contract  shall be effective as to that Fund until approved (i) by the vote of a
majority of those  Trustees of the Trust who are not  interested  persons of the
Adviser  or the Trust  cast in person at a meeting  called  for the  purpose  of
voting  on such  approval,  and (ii) by vote of a  majority  of the  outstanding
voting securities of that Fund.

     9.  Limitation  of  Liability.   The  Adviser  expressly  acknowledges  the
provision in the  Declaration  of Trust of the Trust  (Article  XIV,  Section 2)
limiting the personal  liability of shareholders  of the Trust,  and the Adviser
hereby  agrees  that it shall  have  recourse  only to the Trust for  payment of
claims or  obligations  as between  the Trust and  Adviser  arising  out of this
Contract  and  shall  not  seek   satisfaction  from  the  shareholders  or  any
shareholder  of the  Trust.  No  series of the  Trust  shall be  liable  for the
obligations of any other series of the Trust.

     10. Certain  Definitions.  The terms "assignment" and "interested  persons"
when used herein shall have the respective  meanings specified in the Investment
Company Act of 1940 as now in effect or as hereafter  amended subject,  however,
to such  exemptions as may be granted by the Securities and Exchange  Commission
by  any  rule,  regulation  or  order.  The  term  "vote  of a  majority  of the
outstanding voting securities of that Fund" shall mean the vote of the lesser of
(a) 67 per  centum  or more of the  shares of the  particular  Fund  present  or
represented by proxy at the meeting of holders of more than 50 per centum of the
outstanding shares of the particular Fund are present or represented by proxy at
the  meeting,  or (b) more than 50 per centum of the  outstanding  shares of the
particular fund.

     11. Use of the Name "Wright." The Adviser hereby consents to the use by the
Trust  of the name  "Wright"  as part of the  Trust's  name and the name of each
Fund;  provided,  however,  that  such  consent  shall be  conditioned  upon the
employment of the Adviser or one of its affiliates as the investment  adviser of
the Trust.  The name "Wright" or any variation  thereof may be used from time to
time in  other  connections  and  for  other  purposes  by the  Adviser  and its
affiliates and other investment  companies that have obtained consent to the use
of the name  "Wright".  The Adviser shall have the right to require the Trust to
cease using the name  "Wright" as part of the Trust's  name and the name of each
Fund if the Trust ceases,  for any reasons,  to employ the Adviser or one of its
affiliates as the Trust's investment adviser.  Future names adopted by the Trust
for itself  and its Funds,  insofar  as such  names  include  identifying  words
requiring  the consent of the Adviser,  shall be the property of the Adviser and
shall be subject to the same terms and conditions.

INVESTORS'    SERVICE   (the "Adviser"):


        1. Duties of the  Adviser.  The Trust,  on behalf of each Fund,  hereby 
employs the Adviser to  act  as  investment  adviser  for  and to manage  the 
investment and reinvestment of the assets of the Fund and, except as otherwise 
provided in an administration  agreement, to  administer their affairs, subject
to the supervision of the Trustees of the Trust, for the period and on the terms
set forth in this Contract.

        The Adviser  hereby accepts such  employment,  and undertakes to afford 
to the Trust the advice and assistance of  the  Adviser's organization in  the 
choice of investments and in the purchase and sale of securities  for each Fund 
and to furnish  for the use of the Trust office space and all  necessary  office

policies of the Trust and of each Fund.

Adviser, and to that end the Adviser is authorized as  the agent of the Fund to 
give instructions to the custodian of the Fund as  to deliveries of  securities
and payments of cash for the account of a Fund or the Trust. In connection with 
the selection of such brokers or  dealers and the  placing of such  orders,  the
Adviser  shall use its best  efforts  to  seek  to  execute  portfolio security
transactions at prices which are advantageous  to the Fund and (when a disclosed
commission  is  being charged) at  reasonably  competitive commission rates. In 
selecting  brokers or dealers qualified to execute  a  particular  transaction, 
brokers or dealers may be  selected  who   also provide  brokerage  and research

authorized  to cause   the Funds to pay any broker or dealer who provides  such
brokerage  and  research  service  and  products  a  commission for executing a
security  transaction  which is in  excess  of the  amount  of  commission
another broker or dealer would have charged for  effecting that transaction  if
the  Adviser  determines  in  good  faith  that  such  amount  of commission is 
reasonable  in relation to  the  value of the  brokerage  and research  services
provided  by such  broker or  dealer,  viewed in terms of either that particular
transaction or the overall responsibilities which the Adviser and its affiliates
have with  respect to  accounts  over which they exercise investment discretion.
Subject to the requirement set forth in the second sentence of this  paragraph,
the  Adviser is  authorized  to  consider,  as a factor in the selection of any 
broker or dealer with whom purchase or sale orders may be placed,  the fact that
such  broker or dealer  has  sold  or is  selling  shares  of  the  Fund or the
Trust or of other investment  companies sponsored by the Adviser.

        2.Compensation of the Adviser. For the services, payments and facilities
to be furnished hereunder by the Adviser, the Trust on behalf of each Fund shall
pay to the Adviser  on the last day of each month a fee equal to the percentage
of the average daily net assets of each Fund of the Trust  throughout the month,
computed in accordance  with the Trust's Declaration of Trust and any applicable
votes of the Trustees of the Trust, as shown in the following table:

                    0.75%             0.73%             0.68%

        In case of initiation or  termination  of the Contract  during any month
with  respect to any Fund,  each  Fund's fee for that month  shall  be  reduced
proportionately on the basis of the number of calendar days  during  which the 
Contract  is in effect  and  the  fee  shall  be computed  upon the average net
assets for the  business  days the  Contract  is so in effect for that month.

        Either  party  hereto may, at any time on sixty (60) days' prior written
notice to the other, terminate this Contract as to any Fund, without the payment
of any  penalty,  by action of its Board of Directors or Trustees,  as the case
may be, and the Trust may, at any time upon such written notice to the  Adviser,

claims  or  obligations  as  between  the Trust and Adviser arising out of this
Contract  and  shall  not  seek  satisfaction  from  the  shareholders  or  any
shareholder  of  the  Trust.  No series  of  the  Trust shall be liable for the
obligations of any other series of the Trust.

        10. Certain Definitions. The terms "assignment" and "interested persons"
when used herein  shall have the respective meanings specified in the Investment
Company Act of 1940 as now in effect or as hereafter amended  subject,  however,

Fund if the Trust ceases, for any reasons,  to employ the Adviser or one of its
affiliates as the Trust's investment

                EQUIFUND--WRIGHT NATIONAL FIDUCIARY EQUITY FUNDS

                          INVESTMENT ADVISORY CONTRACT


     CONTRACT made this 20th day of  January,  1994,  between  EQUIFUND--WRIGHT
NATIONAL FIDUCIARY EQUITY FUNDS, a Massachusetts  business trust (the "Trust"),
on behalf of WRIGHT  EQUIFUND--AUSTRIAN  NATIONAL FIDUCIARY EQUITY FUND, WRIGHT
EQUIFUND-- BELGIAN/LUXEMBOURG NATIONAL FIDUCIARY EQUITY FUND, WRIGHT EQUIFUND--
CANADIAN NATIONAL  FIDUCIARY  EQUITY  FUND,  WRIGHT  EQUIFUND--FRENCH  NATIONAL

WRIGHT   EQUIFUND--JAPANESE    NATIONAL    FIDUCIARY   EQUITY   FUND,    WRIGHT
EQUIFUND--NORDIC  NATIONAL FIDUCIARY  EQUITY  FUND and  WRIGHT  EQUIFUND--SWISS
NATIONAL  FIDUCIARY  EQUITY FUND,  and any other  series of the Trust which the
Adviser (as  defined  below) and the Trust  shall agree from time to time to be
subject to  this  Agreement  (collectively,  the  "Funds"),  and  The  Winthrop
Corporation, a  Connecticut  corporation  doing  business as WRIGHT  INVESTORS'
SERVICE (the "Adviser"):

                1. Duties  of  the   Adviser.  The  Trust,  on  behalf  of  each
     Fund,  hereby  employs the Adviser to act as investment  adviser for and to
     manage  the  investment  and  reinvestment  of the  assets of the Fund and,
     except as otherwise provided in an administration  agreement, to administer
     their affairs, subject to the supervision of the Trustees of the Trust, for
     the period and on the terms set forth in this Contract.

                The Adviser  hereby accepts such  employment,  and undertakes to
     afford to the Trust the advice and assistance of the Adviser's organization
     in the choice of investments and in the purchase  and sale  of securities
     for each Fund and to furnish  for the use of the Trust  office   space and 
     all  necessary  office  facilities,  equipment  and personnel for servicing
     the investments of the Funds and for administering  the  Trust's  affairs 
     and to pay  the  salaries  and  fees of all  officers  and  Trustees of the
     Trust who are members of the  Adviser's  organization and  all personnel of
     the  Adviser  performing  services  relating  to  research  and investment
     activities. The Adviser  shall  for  all purposes herein be deemed to be an
     independent contractor and shall, except as otherwise expressly provided or
     authorized, have no authority to act for or represent the Trust in any way 
     or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Trust.

                The  Adviser  shall  provide  the Trust  with  such  investment
     management  and  supervision  as the Trust may from time to time consider
     necessary for the proper supervision of the Funds. As investment adviser
     to the Funds, the Adviser shall furnish continuously an investment program 
     and shall  determine  from time to time what securities shall be purchased,
     sold or exchanged and what portion of each Fund's assets   shall  be  held 
     uninvested subject always to the applicable restrictions of the Declaration
     of  Trust,  By-Laws  and  registration  statement  of  the  Trust under the
     Investment  Company  Act  of  1940,  all  as  from  time  to  time amended.
     The  Adviser  is  authorized,  in  its  discretion   and  without   prior
     consultation  with the  Trust,  but  subject  to  each  Fund's  investment 
     objective,  policies  and  restrictions, to buy, sell, lend and otherwise 
     trade in any stocks,  bonds,  options and other  securities and investment
     instruments  on behalf of the Funds,  to purchase,  write or sell  options
     on securities, futures contracts or indices on  behalf  of the  Funds,  to 
     enter  into  commodities  contracts  on behalf  of  the  Funds,  including 
     contracts  for the future  delivery of securities or currency and  futures
     contracts on securities or other  indices, and  to  execute  any  and  all
     agreements and instruments and to do any and all things incidental thereto 
     in connection with the management of the Funds. Should the Trustees of the 
     Trust  at  any  time,  however,  make  any  specific  determination  as  to
     investment policy for the period, if any, specified in such notice or until
     similarly


                                                             

<PAGE>



     notified that such determination has been revoked. The Adviser shall take,
     on behalf of the Funds, all  actions which it deems necessary or desirable
     to implement the investment policies of the Trust and of each Fund.

                The Adviser shall place all orders for the  purchase  or sale of
     portfolio  securities  for the  account of a Fund with  brokers or dealers
     selected by the Adviser, and to that end the Adviser is authorized as  the
     agent  of the Fund to give instructions to the custodian of the Fund as to
     deliveries of securities and payments of cash for the account of a Fund or 
     the Trust. In connection with the selection of such brokers or dealers and
     the  placing of such  orders,  the Adviser  shall use its best  efforts to 
     seek  to  execute  portfolio  security  transactions  at prices which are
     advantageous  to  the  Fund  and (when  a  disclosed  commission  is being
     charged) at reasonably  competitive commission rates. In selecting brokers
     or dealers  qualified  to  execute  a  particular  transaction, brokers or
     dealers may be selected who also provide  brokerage  and research  services
     and products (as those terms are defined in Section 28(e) of the Securities
     Exchange  Act  of 1934)  to  the  Adviser  and  the  Adviser is expressly 
     authorized  to  cause  the Funds to pay any broker or dealer who provides
     such brokerage and research service and products a commission for executing
     a security transaction  which is in  excess  of the  amount  of  commission
     another   broker  or  dealer  would  have   charged  for  effecting  that
     transaction if the  Adviser  determines  in good faith that such amount of
     commission  is  reasonable  in relation to the value of the  brokerage  and
     research  services  provided  by such  broker or  dealer,  viewed in terms 
     of either that particular transaction or the overall responsibilities which
     the Adviser and its  affiliates have with  respect to  accounts  over which
     they exercise investment discretion.  Subject to the requirement set  forth
     in the  second  sentence  of this  paragraph,  the  Adviser is  authorized 
     to  consider,  as a factor in the  selection  of any broker or dealer with
     whom purchase or sale orders may be  placed,  the fact that such  broker or
     dealer has sold  or is  selling  shares  of the  Fund or the   Trust or of
     other investment  companies sponsored by the Adviser.

                2. Compensation  of  the  Adviser.  For  the services, payments 
     and facilities  to  be  furnished  hereunder  by the Adviser, the Trust on
     behalf of each Fund shall pay to the Adviser on the last day of each month
     a fee equal to the percentage of the average daily net assets of each Fund 
     of the Trust  throughout the month, computed in accordance with the Trust's
     Declaration of Trust and any applicable votes of the Trustees of the Trust,
     as shown in the following table:

</TABLE>

              In case of initiation or  termination  of the Contract  during any
     month with  respect to any Fund,  each  Fund's fee for that month shall be
     reduced proportionately on the basis of the number of calendar days during 
     which the  Contract  is in effect  and the fee shall be computed  upon the
     average net assets for the business days the  Contract  is so in effect for
     that  month.

              The Adviser may, from time to time,  waive all or a part of
     the above compensation.

     shareholders  and  investors,  and  fees  and  expenses of registering and

                4. Other Interests.  It is  understood  that Trustees, officers
     and  shareholders  of the Trust are  or may be or become interested in the
     Adviser as directors, officers, employees,  stockholders  or otherwise and

     and services of the Adviser, including the selection of  brokers or dealers
     to  execute   the   Trust's   portfolio   security  transactions,  and upon
     such terms and conditions as may be  agreed upon  between  the Adviser and 
     such sub-investment adviser and approved by the Trustees of the Trust.

                7. Duration  and  Termination of this Contract.  This Contract
     shall  become effective upon the  date  of  its  execution,  and,  unless
     terminated as herein provided, shall remain in full force and effect as to
     each Fund to and  including  February 28, 1995 and shall  continue in full
     force and effect as to each Fund indefinitely thereafter, but only so long
     as such continuance after February 28, 1995  is  specifically  approved at
     least  annually (i) by the Trustees of the Trust or by vote of a majority 
     of the  outstanding  voting  securities of that Fund and (ii) by the  vote
     of a  majority  of  those  Trustees  of the Trust  who  are not interested
     persons of the Adviser or (other  than as a  Trustee)  the  Trust cast in
     person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval.

                Either  party  hereto may, at any time on sixty (60) days' prior
     written  notice to the other,  terminate  this  Contract  as to any Fund,
     without the payment of any  penalty,  by action of its Board of Directors
     or Trustees, as the case may be, and the Trust may, at any time upon such
     written notice to the Adviser, terminate  this  Contract  as to any  Fund
     by  vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of that Fund.
     This  Contract  shall  terminate  automatically  in  the  event  of  its 
     assignment.

                8. Amendments of the Contract. This Contract may be  amended as
     to any Fund by a  writing signed by both parties  hereto,  provided that
     no amendment to this Contract  shall be  effective  as to that Fund until
     approved (i) by the vote of a majority of those Trustees of the Trust who
     are not  interested  persons of the  Adviser or the Trust cast in person
     at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval, and (ii)
     by vote of a  majority of the outstanding voting securities of that Fund.

                9. Limitation of Liability. The Adviser expressly  acknowledges
     the provision in the Declaration  of Trust of the Trust  (Article  XIV, 
     Section 2) limiting  the personal liability of  shareholders  of the Trust,
     and the Adviser hereby agrees that it shall have recourse only to the Trust
     for payment of claims or obligations  as  between  the  Trust  and Adviser
     arising  out  of  this  Contract  and shall not seek satisfaction from the
     shareholders or any shareholder of the Trust. No series of the Trust shall
     be liable for the obligations of any other series of the Trust.

                10. Certain Definitions. The terms "assignment" and "interested
     persons" when used herein shall have the respective  meanings specified in
     the Investment Company Act of 1940 as now in effect or as hereafter amended
     subject,  however,  to such exemptions as may be granted by the Securities
     and Exchange Commission by any rule, regulation or order.  The term  "vote
     of a  majority  of the  outstanding  voting securities of that Fund" shall
     mean the vote of the lesser of (a) 67 per centum or more of the  shares of
     the  particular  Fund  present  or  represented  by proxy at the meeting of
     holders  of  more  than  50  per  centum  of the outstanding shares of the 
     particular Fund are present or represented by proxy at the  meeting, or (b)
     more than 50 per centum of the outstanding shares of the particular fund.

                11. Use of the Name "Wright." The Adviser hereby consents to the
     use by the Trust of the name "Wright" as part of the Trust's name and  the 
     name of each Fund;provided, however, that such consent shall be conditioned
     upon  the  employment  of the Adviser or one of  its  affiliates  as  the 
     investment adviser of the Trust. The name "Wright" or any variation thereof
     may be used from time to time in other  connections and for other purposes
     by the Adviser and its affiliates and other investment companies that have
     obtained consent to the use of the name "Wright". The  Adviser  shall have 
     the right to require the Trust to cease using the name  "Wright" as part of
     the Trust's name and the name  of  each  Fund if the Trust ceases, for any
     reasons,  to employ the  Adviser  or  one of its affiliates as the Trust's 
     investment adviser. Future  names  adopted by the Trust for itself and its
     Funds,insofar as such names include identifying words requiring the consent
     of the Adviser, shall be the property of the Adviser and shall  be subject
     to the same terms and conditions.

                                                          Exhibit (5)(a)(4)

                       THE WRIGHT EQUIFUND EQUITY TRUST        

                          INVESTMENT ADVISORY CONTRACT



     1. Duties of the Adviser.  The Trust, on behalf of the Fund, hereby employs
the Adviser to act as investment  adviser for and to manage the  investment  and
reinvestment of the assets of the Fund and,  except as otherwise  provided in an
administration  agreement, to administer its affairs, subject to the supervision
of the Trustees of the Trust,  for the period and on the terms set forth in this
Contract.

     The Adviser hereby accepts such employment, and undertakes to afford to the
Trust the advice and assistance of the Adviser's  organization  in the choice of
investments  and in the  purchase  and  sale of  securities  for the Fund and to
furnish  for  the  use of the  Trust  office  space  and  all  necessary  office
facilities,  equipment and personnel for servicing the  investments  of the Fund
and for  administering  the Trust's  affairs and to pay the salaries and fees of
all  officers  and  Trustees  of the  Trust  who are  members  of the  Adviser's
organization and all personnel of the Adviser  performing  services  relating to
research and investment activities. The Adviser shall for all purposes herein be
deemed to be an independent  contractor and shall, except as otherwise expressly
provided or  authorized,  have no authority to act for or represent the Trust in
any way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Trust.

     The Adviser shall  provide the Trust with such  investment  management  and
supervision as the Trust may from time to time consider necessary for the proper
supervision  of the Fund. As investment  adviser to the Fund,  the Adviser shall
furnish continuously an investment program and shall determine from time to time
what  securities  shall be purchased,  sold or exchanged and what portion of the
Fund's  assets  shall  be held  uninvested,  subject  always  to the  applicable
restrictions of the Declaration of Trust, By-Laws and registration  statement of
the Trust under the  Investment  Company  Act of 1940,  all as from time to time
amended.  The  Adviser  is  authorized,  in its  discretion  and  without  prior
consultation  with  theTrust,  but subject to the Fund's  investment  objective,
policies and restrictions, to buy, sell, lend and otherwise trade in any stocks,
bonds, options and other securities and investment  instruments on behalf of the
Fund, to purchase,  write or sell options on  securities,  futures  contracts or
indices on behalf of the Fund, to enter into commodities  contracts on behalf of
the Fund,  including contracts for the future delivery of securities or currency
and futures contracts on securities or other indices, and to execute any and all
agreements and  instruments and to do any and all things  incidental  thereto in
connection with the management of the Fund.  Should the Trustees of the Trust at
any time, however,  make any specific  determination as to investment policy for
the period,  if any,  specified in such notice or until similarly  notified that
such  determination  has been revoked.  The Adviser shall take, on behalf of the
Fund,  all actions  which it deems  necessary  or  desirable  to  implement  the
investment policies of the Trust and of the Fund.

     The Adviser  shall place all orders for the  purchase or sale of  portfolio
securities  for the account of the Fund with brokers or dealers  selected by the
Adviser,  and to that end the Adviser is  authorized as the agent of the Fund to
give  instructions  to the  custodian of the Fund as to deliveries of securities
and  payments  of cash for the account of the Fund or the Trust.  In  connection
with the  selection  of such  brokers or dealers and the placing of such orders,
the Adviser  shall use its best  efforts to seek to execute  portfolio  security
transactions at prices which are  advantageous to the Fund and (when a disclosed
commission is being  charged) at reasonably  competitive  commission  rates. In
selecting brokers or dealers 
                                                           

<PAGE>



     qualified  to execute a particular  transaction,  brokers or dealers may be
selected who also provide brokerage and research services and products (as those
terms are defined in Section  28(e) of the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934) to
the Adviser and the Adviser is expressly authorized to cause the Fund to pay any
broker or dealer who provides such brokerage and research service and products a
commission for executing a security transaction which is in excess of the amount
of commission  another  broker or dealer would have charged for  effecting  that
transaction  if the  Adviser  determines  in good  faith  that  such  amount  of
commission  is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research
services  and  products  provided by such  broker or dealer,  viewed in terms of
either that  particular  transaction or the overall  responsibilities  which the
Adviser  and its  affiliates  have with  respect  to  accounts  over  which they
exercise  investment  discretion.  Subject to the  requirement  set forth in the
second sentence of this paragraph,  the Adviser is authorized to consider,  as a
factor in the  selection  of any  broker or dealer  with whom  purchase  or sale
orders may be placed, the fact that such broker or dealer has sold or is selling
shares of the Fund or the Trust or of other  investment  companies  sponsored by
the Adviser.

     2. Compensation of the Adviser.  For the services,  payments and facilities
to be furnished hereunder by the Adviser,  the Trust on behalf of the Fund shall
pay to the Adviser on the last day of each month a fee equal to a percentage  of
the  average  daily net  assets of the Fund of the Trust  throughout  the month,
computed in accordance with the Trust's  Declaration of Trust and any applicable
votes of the Trustees of the Trust, as shown in the following table:


                           ANNUAL ADVISORY FEE RATES

                      Under         $500 Million
                      $500          to               Over
                      Million       $1 Billion       $1 Billion
                      ------------------------------------------
                      0.75%         0.73%            0.68%


     In case of initiation or termination of the Contract  during any month with
respect  to  the  Fund,   the  Fund's  fee  for  that  month  shall  be  reduced
proportionately  on the basis of the number of calendar  days  during  which the
Contract is in effect and the fee shall be computed  upon the average net assets
for the business days the Contract is so in effect for that month.

     The  Adviser  may,  from  time to time,  waive  all or a part of the  above
compensation.

     3. Allocation of Charges and Expenses. It is understood that the Trust will
pay all its  expenses  other  than those  expressly  stated to be payable by the
Adviser  hereunder,  which expenses payable by the Trust shall include,  without

existence,  (ii)  registration of the Trust under the Investment  Company Act of
1940, (iii) commissions,  fees and other expenses connected with the purchase or

registration of the Trust and of the Trust's principal underwriter, if any, as a
broker-dealer or agent under state securities laws, (ix) expenses of reports and

therefor, (x) expenses of reports to governmental officers and commissions, (xi)

(xiv) fees,  expenses and  disbursements  of transfer agents and registrars
for all services to the Trust, (xv) expenses for servicing shareholder accounts,
(xvi) any direct charges to shareholders  approved by the Trustees of the Trust,
(xviii) all payments to be made and expenses to be assumed by the Trust pursuant
to any one or more  distribution  plans  adopted by the Trust  pursuant  to Rule
12b-1 under the Investment  Company Act of 1940,  (xix) the  administration  fee
payable to the Trust's  administrator  and (xx) such  nonrecurring  items as may
arise,  including  expenses incurred in connection with litigation,  proceedings
and  claims  and the  obligation  of the Trust to  indemnify  its  Trustees  and
officers with respect thereto.

     4.  Other  Interests.   It  is  understood  that  Trustees,   officers  and
shareholders  of the Trust are or may be or become  interested in the Adviser as
directors,  officers,  employees,  stockholders or otherwise and that directors,
officers,  employees  and  stockholders  of the  Adviser are or may be or become
similarly  interested  in the  Trust,  and that  the  Adviser  may be or  become
interested in the Trust as a shareholder  or  otherwise.  It is also  understood
that directors,  officers,  employees and stockholders of the Adviser are or may
be  or  become  interested  (as  directors,   trustees,   officers,   employees,
stockholders  or otherwise) in other companies or entities  (including,  without
limitation,  other investment companies) which the Adviser may organize, sponsor
or acquire, or with which it may merge or consolidate, and which may include the
words "Wright" or "Wright Investors" or any combination thereof as part of their
names,  and that the Adviser or its  subsidiaries  or affiliates  may enter into
advisory or management  agreements or other contracts or relationships with such
other companies or entities.

     5.  Limitation of Liability of the Adviser.  The services of the Adviser to
the Trust are not to be deemed to be exclusive, the Adviser being free to render
services to others and engage in other  business  activities.  In the absence of
willful  misfeasance,  bad faith,  gross  negligence  or reckless  disregard  of
obligations  or duties  hereunder on the part of the Adviser,  the Adviser shall
not be subject to liability to the Trust or to any  shareholder of the Trust for
any act or  omission in the course of, or  connected  with,  rendering  services
hereunder or for any losses which may be sustained in the  purchase,  holding or
sale of any security.

     6.   Sub-Investment   Advisers.   The   Adviser  may  employ  one  or  more
sub-investment  advisers  from  time to time to  perform  such of the  acts  and
services  of the  Adviser,  including  the  selection  of  brokers or dealers to
execute the Trust's  portfolio  security  transactions,  and upon such terms and
conditions  as may be agreed upon  between  the Adviser and such  sub-investment
adviser and approved by the Trustees of the Trust.

     7. Duration and  Termination of this  Contract.  This Contract shall become
effective  upon the date of its  execution,  and,  unless  terminated  as herein
provided,  shall remain in full force and effect through and including  February
28, 1996 and shall  continue in full force and effect  indefinitely  thereafter,
but only so long as such  continuance  after  February 28, 1996 is  specifically
approved  at least  annually  (i) by the  Trustees  of the Trust or by vote of a
majority of the outstanding  voting  securities of the Fund and (ii) by the vote
of a majority of those Trustees of the Trust who are not  interested  persons of
the Adviser or (other  than as a Trustee)  the Trust cast in person at a meeting
called for the purpose of voting on such approval.

     Either  party  hereto may,  at any time on sixty (60) days'  prior  written
notice to the other, terminate this Contract without the payment of any penalty,
by action of its Board of  Directors  or  Trustees,  as the case may be, and the

Contract  as to any  Fund  by  vote  of a  majority  of the  outstanding  voting
securities of the Fund. This Contract shall terminate automatically in the event
of its assignment.

provision in the  Declaration  of Trust of the Trust  (Article  XIV,  Section 2)
limiting the personal  liability of shareholders  of the Trust,  and the Adviser
hereby  agrees  that it shall  have  recourse  only to the Trust for  payment of
claims or  obligations  as between  the Trust and  Adviser  arising  out of this
Contract  and  shall  not  seek   satisfaction  from  the  shareholders  or  any
shareholder of the Trust.  No series of the Trust shall be liable  hereunder for
the obligations of any other series of the Trust.

     10. Certain  Definitions.  The terms "assignment" and "interested  persons"
when used herein shall have the respective  meanings specified in the Investment
Company Act of 1940 as now in effect or as hereafter  amended subject,  however,

by  any  rule,  regulation  or  order.  The  term  "vote  of a  majority  of the
outstanding  voting securities of the Fund" shall mean the vote of the lesser of

Trust of the name "Wright" as part of the Trust's name and the name of the Fund;
provided, however, that such consent shall be conditioned upon the employment of
the Adviser or one of its affiliates as the investment adviser of the Trust. The
name  "Wright" or any  variation  thereof may be used from time to time in other
connections  and for other  purposes by the Adviser and its affiliates and other
investment companies that have obtained consent to the use of the name "Wright."
The  Adviser  shall have the right to require  the Trust to cease using the name
"Wright'  as part of the  Trust's  name and the  name of the  Fund if the  Trust
ceases,  for any reasons,  to employ the Adviser or one of its affiliates as the
Trust's investment adviser. Future names adopted by the Trust for itself and its
Funds,  insofar as such names include identifying words requiring the consent of
the  Adviser,  shall be the  property of the Adviser and shall be subject to the
same terms and conditions.

                           DISTRIBUTION CONTRACT


         Distribution  Contract  dated March 23, 1990,  between  EQUIFUND-WRIGHT
NATIONAL  FIDUCIARY  EQUITY FUNDS, a Massachusetts  business trust (the "Fund"),
and MFBT CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the "Distributor").

         In  consideration  of  the  mutual  promises  and  undertakings  herein
contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

         1. Appointment as Distributor. The fund hereby appoints the Distributor
as a  general  distributor  of shares of  beneficial  interest  of the Fund (the
"shares").  Nothing herein shall be construed to prevent the Fund from employing
other general  distributors of the shares or to prohibit the Fund from acting as
distributor of its shares, and the Fund reserves the right to sell its shares to
investors upon applications received by the Fund or its agents.

         2. Distributions by Distributor. The Distributor will have the right to
obtain  subscriptions  for  and  to  sell  shares  as  agent  of the  Fund.  The
Distributor  shall be under no obligation to effectuate any particular amount of
sales of shares or to promote or make sales except to the extent the Distributor
deems  advisable.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate the Distributor to
register  or  qualify  as a broker or dealer in any  state,  territory  or other
jurisdiction  in which it is not now  registered or qualified or to maintain its
registration or qualification in any state,  territory or other  jurisdiction in
which  it  is  now  registered  or  qualified.   The  right  granted  to  obtain
subscriptions  for and sell shares of the Funds shall be exclusive,  except that
said  exclusive  right shall not apply to shares issued to (1) employee  benefit
plans having 50 or more eligible employees;  (2) charitable  organizations;  (as
defined in Section  501(c)(3)  of the  Internal  Revenue  Code);  (3) current or
retired officers,  directors, or full-time employees of the Winthrop Corporation
(or its  direct or  indirect  subsidiaries)  or current  or former  Trustees  or
officers of a Wright managed  mutual fund; (4) spouses of individuals  described
in (3);  (5)  guardians or Trustees of a Trust for the sole benefit of the minor
child or other  dependent of an  individual  described  in (3);  (6)  charitable
remainder  trusts  or  life  income  pools  established  for  the  benefit  of a
charitable organization (as defined in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue
Code; or, (7) participating bank trust departments  purchasing shares either for
their own account or for the account of their clients,  or individual clients of
Wright Inventors' Service; and in connection with the merger or consolidation of
any other  investment  company or personal  holding  company  with a Fund or the
acquisition by purchase or otherwise of all (or substantially all) the assets or
the outstanding  shares of any such company,  by the Fund; nor shall it apply to
shares,  if any, issued by a Fund in  distribution of realized  capital gains of
the Fund payable in shares or in cash at the option of the shareholder.

         3. Public Offering Price. All  subscriptions and sales of shares by the
Distributor hereunder shall be at the public offering price. The public offering
price shall be (1) the  applicable  net asset value of the shares in  accordance
with the provisions of the current  Prospectus of the Fund (2) plus any purchase
adjustment  as  described  in the  current  Prospectus  of the  Fund and (3) the
applicable sales charge, if any.

         4. Repurchase of Shares.  The Distributor may act as agent for the Fund
in  connection  with the  repurchase  of  shares  by the Fund upon the terms and
conditions  set forth in the then current  Prospectus of the Fund. The Fund will
reimburse  the  Distributor  for  any  reasonable   expenses   incurred  by  the
Distributor in connection  with any such repurchase of shares for the account of
the Fund.

                                                                 
<PAGE>




         5.  Cooperation  by Fund. The Fund agrees to execute such papers and to
do such acts and things as shall from time to time be  reasonably  requested  by
the  Distributor  for the purpose of registering  or qualifying and  maintaining
registration or  qualification  of the shares for sale under the so-called "Blue
Sky" laws of any state or territory or for maintaining  the  registration of the
Fund and of the  shares  under  the  Securities  Act of 1933 and the  Investment
Company Act of 1940,  to the end that there will be available for sale from time
to time such number of shares as the  Distributor  may reasonably be expected to
sell.  The Fund will  advise the  Distributor  promptly of (i) any action of the
Securities and Exchange Commission or any authorities of any state or territory,
of which it may be advised,  affecting registration or qualification of the Fund
or the shares, or rights to offer the shares for sale, and (ii) the happening of
any event which makes  untrue any  statement  in the  registration  statement or
Prospectus  or which  requires  the  making of any  change  in the  registration
statement or Prospectus in order to make the statements  therein not misleading.
The Fund shall make  available to the  Distributor  such copies of its currently
effective  Prospectus  and of all  information,  financial  statements and other
papers as the  Distributor  shall  reasonably  request  in  connection  with the
distribution of shares of the Fund.

         6. The Distributor as Independent Contractor.  The Distributor shall be
an independent contractor and neither the Distributor nor any of its officers or
employees  as such is or shall be an employee of the Fund.  The  Distributor  is
responsible for its own conduct and the  employment,  control and conduct of its
agents and  employees  and for injury to such agents or  employees  or to others
through its agents or employees. The Distributor assumes full responsibility for
its  agents  and  employees  under  applicable  statutes  and  agrees to pay all
employer taxes thereunder.

         7.  Representations.  The  Distributor is not authorized by the Fund to
give any information or to make any  representations  other than those contained
in the  registration  statement  or  Prospectus  filed with the  Securities  and
Exchange  Commission  under  the  Securities  Act of 1933 (as said  registration
statement  and  Prospectus  may be amended  from time to time) or  contained  in
shareholder  reports or other  material  that may be prepared by or on behalf of
the Fund for the Distributor's use. Nothing herein shall be construed to prevent
the  Distributor  from  preparing  and  distributing  sales  literature or other
material as it may deem appropriate.

         8. Expenses  Payable by the Fund.  The Fund shall pay for and affix any
stock issue stamps (or in the case of treasury shares transfer  stamps) required
for the issue (or  transfer) of shares of the Fund.  The Fund shall pay all fees
and  expenses  in  connection  with  (a)  the  preparation  and  filing  of  any
registration  statement and  Prospectus  under the Securities Act of 1933 or the
Investment Company Act of 1940 and amendments  thereto,  (b) the registration or
qualification  of shares for sale in the various  states,  territories  or other
jurisdictions  (including  without  limitation the registering or qualifying the
Fund as a broker or dealer or any  officer of the Fund as agent or  salesman  in
any  state,   territory  or  other   jurisdiction),   (c)  the  preparation  and
distribution of any report or other communication to shareholders of the Fund in
their  capacity  as  such,  and  (d) the  preparation  and  distribution  of any
Prospectuses sent to existing shareholders of the Fund. The Fund shall also make
all payments  (including  but not limited to  expenses)  pursuant to any written
plan or  agreement  relating  to the  implementation  of such plan  approved  in
accordance  with  Rule  12b-1  under  the  Investment  Company  Act of  1940  in
connection with the distribution of its shares.


                                                                
<PAGE>



         9. Expenses Payable by the  Distributor.  The Distributor or its parent
will defray  expenses of (a)  printing  and  distributing  any  Prospectuses  or
reports  prepared for its use in connection  with the offering of the shares for
sale to the public (other than to existing  shareholders  of the Fund),  (b) any
other  literature used by the Distributor in connection with such offering,  and
(c) any advertising in connection with such offering, unless any of the expenses
listed in  subparagraphs  (a), (b) or (c) of this  paragraph 9 are to be paid by
the Fund under a 12b-1 plan or agreement  relating to the implementation of such
plan as described in paragraph 8 hereof.

         10.  Indemnification  of the Distributor.  The Fund agrees to indemnify
and hold  harmless the  Distributor  and each of its  directors and officers and
each person, if any, who controls the Distributor  within the meaning of Section
15 of the 1933 Act  against  any loss,  liability,  claim,  damages  or  expense
(including the reasonable cost of  investigating  or defending any alleged loss,
liability,  claim,  damages,  or expense and reasonable counsel fees incurred in
connection  therewith),  arising by reason of any person  acquiring  any shares,
based upon the ground that the registration statement,  Prospectus,  shareholder
reports or other  information  filed or made  public by the Fund as from time to
time amended and  supplemented,  included an untrue statement of a material fact
or omitted to state a material fact  required to be stated  therein or necessary
in order to make the  statements  therein not  misleading  and arising under the
Securities  Act of 1933,  or any other  statute  or the  common  law,  provided,
however, that the Fund does not agree to so indemnify the Distributor or hold it
harmless to the extent  that such  statement  or  omission  was made on reliance
upon, and in conformity  with,  information  furnished to the Fund in connection
therewith by or on behalf of the Distributor;  and provided, further, that in no
case (i) is the indemnity of the Fund in favor of the  Distributor or any person
indemnified  to be deemed to protect the  Distributor or any such person against
any liability to the Fund or its security  holders to which the  Distributor  or
any  controlling   person  would  otherwise  be  subject  by  reason  of  wilful
misfeasance,  bad faith or gross  negligence in the performance of its duties or
by reason of its  reckless  disregard of its  obligations  and duties under this
Contract,  or (ii) is the  Fund  to be  liable  under  its  indemnity  agreement
contained  in  this  paragraph  with  respect  to any  claim  made  against  the
Distributor or any person  indemnified unless the Distributor or such person, as
the case may be, shall have  notified the Fund in writing of such claim within a
reasonable  time after the summons or other first  written  notification  giving
information  of the  nature  of the  claim  shall  have  been  served  upon  the
Distributor  or such person (or after the  Distributor or such person shall have
received notice of such service on any designated  agent), but failure to notify
the Fund of any such claim shall not relieve it from any liability  which it may
have to the  Distributor  or any  person  against  whom such  action is  brought
otherwise  than  on  account  of  its  indemnity  agreement  contained  in  this
paragraph.  The Fund shall be entitled to  participate at its own expense in the
defense,  or, if it so  elects,  to assume the  defense  of any suit  brought to
enforce  any such  claim,  but if the Fund  elects to assume the  defense,  such
defense  shall be  conducted  by counsel  chosen by it and  satisfactory  to the
Distributor  or such person or persons,  defendant or defendants in the suit. In
the event the Fund elects to assume the defense of any such suit and retain such
counsel, the Distributor,  such officers or directors or such controlling person
or  persons,  defendant  or  defendants  in the  suit,  shall  bear the fees and
expenses of any additional  counsel retained by them. If the Fund does not elect
to assume the defense of any such suit, it will reimburse the Distributor,  such
officers  or  directors  or such  controlling  person or persons,  defendant  or
defendants  in the suit,  for the  reasonable  fees and  expenses of any counsel
retained by them.  The Fund agrees  promptly  to notify the  Distributor  of the
commencement of any litigation or proceedings  against it or any of its officers
or Trustees in connection with the issuance or sale of any of the shares.



                                                                 

<PAGE>



         11.  Indemnification  of the Fund. The Distributor  agrees that it will
indemnify  and hold  harmless the Fund and each of its Trustees and officers and
each  person,  if any, who controls the Fund within the meaning of Section 15 of
the 1933 Act, against any loss, liability,  damages, claim or expense (including
the reasonable cost of investigating  or defending any alleged loss,  liability,
damages,  claim or expense and  reasonable  counsel fees  incurred in connection
therewith) arising by reason of any person acquiring any shares,  based upon the
1933 Act or any other  statute or common law,  alleging  any wrongful act of the
Distributor or any of its employees or alleging that the registration statement,
prospectus, shareholder reports or other information filed or made public by the
Fund, as from time to time amended,  included an untrue  statement of a material
fact or  omitted  to state a  material  fact  required  to be stated  therein or
necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading, insofar as any
such  statement or omission was made in reliance  upon,  and in conformity  with
information furnished to the Fund by or on behalf of the Distributor,  provided,
however, that in no case (i) is the indemnity of the Distributor in favor of the
Fund or any  person  indemnified  to be deemed to  protect  the Fund or any such
person  against  any  liability  to  which  the Fund of any  such  person  would
otherwise  be  subject  by  reason  of  wilful  misfeasance,  bad faith or gross
negligence  in the  performance  of its  duties  or by  reason  of its  reckless
disregard  of its  obligations  and duties under this  Contract,  or (ii) is the
Distributor  to be  liable  under  its  indemnity  agreement  contained  in this
paragraph  with  respect  to any  claim  made  against  the  Fund or any  person
indemnified  unless  the Fund or such  person,  as the case may be,  shall  have
notified the Distributor in writing of such claim within a reasonable time after
the summons or other first written notification giving information of the nature
of the claim  shall have been served upon the Fund or upon such person (or after
the Fund or such  person  shall  have  received  notice of such  service  on any
designated agent), but failure to notify the Distributor of any such claim shall
not  relieve it from any  liability  which it may have to the Fund or any person
against whom such action is brought  otherwise  than on account of its indemnity
agreement  contained  in this  paragraph.  In the case on any such notice to the
Distributor,  the  Distributor  shall be  entitled  to  participate,  at its own
expense,  in the defense or, if it so elects,  to assume the defense of any suit
brought to enforce any such claim,  but if the Distributor  elects to assume the
defense,  such defense shall be conducted by counsel  chosen by the  Distributor
and  satisfactory  to  the  Fund,  to  its  officers  and  Trustees  and  to any
controlling person or persons, defendant or defendants in the suit. In the event
that the  Distributor  elects to assume the  defense of any such suit and retain
such counsel, the Fund or such controlling  persons,  defendant or defendants in
the suit, shall bear the fees and expense of any additional  counsel retained by
them. If the Distributor  does not elect to assume the defense of any such suit,
it will reimburse the Fund, such officers and Trustees or controlling  person or
persons,  defendant or  defendants  in such suit,  for the  reasonable  fees and
expenses of any counsel  retained by them. The  Distributor  agrees  promptly to
notify the Fund of the commencement of any litigation or proceedings  against it
in connection with the issue and sale of any of the shares.

         12.  Effective  Date,  Termination  and Amendment.  This Contract shall
become  effective on the date of its execution and (unless  terminated as herein
provided) shall remain in full force and through and including  February 2, 1991
and shall continue in full force and effect indefinitely thereafter, but only so
long as such  continuance  after  February 2, 1991 is  specifically  approved at
least annually (a) by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of
the Fund or by the  Trustees  of the Fund,  and (b) by the vote of a majority of
the  Trustees of the Fund who are not  interested  persons of the Fund or of the
Distributor cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such
approval. This Contract may at any time be terminated without the payment of any
penalty (1) by vote of the  Trustees of the Fund or by vote of a majority of the
outstanding  voting  securities of the Fund,  on 60 days' written  notice to the
Distributor,  (2)  automatically in the event of its assignment,  and (3) by the
Distributor  on 60 days'  written  notice to the Fund.  Any  notice  under  this
Contract shall be given in writing, addressed and delivered, or mailed postpaid,
to the other party at the Boston office of such party.

                                                                

<PAGE>



         This  Contract  may be amended at any time by a writing  signed by both
parties  hereto,  provided that no amendment of this Contract shall be effective
until approved (a) by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of
the  Fund or by vote  of the  Trustees  of the  Fund,  and (b) by the  vote of a
majority of the Trustees of the Fund who are not interested  persons of the Fund
or of the  Distributor  cast in person at a meeting  called  for the  purpose of
voting on such approval.

         13. Limitation of Liability. The Distributor expressly acknowledges the
provision  in the  Declaration  of Trust of the Fund  (Article  XIV,  Section 2)
limiting the personal liability of shareholders of the Fund, and the Distributor
hereby  agrees that is shall have  recourse to the Fund for payment of claims or
obligations as between the Fund and the Distributor arising out of this Contract
and shall not seek  satisfaction from the shareholders or any shareholder of the
Fund.

         14. Certain  Definitions.  The terms  "interested  person",  "vote of a
majority of the outstanding  voting  securities" and  "assignment"  when used in
this Contract  shall have the  respective  meanings  specified in the Investment
Company Act of 1940,  subject,  however, to such exemptions as may be granted by
the Securities and Exchange Commission by any rule, regulation or order.


         IN  WITNESS  WHEREOF,  each  of the  parties  hereto  has  caused  this
Distribution Contract to be executed in its name and on its behalf by one of its
officers  thereunto  duly  authorized,  all as of the day and year  first  above
written.

                         MASTER CUSTODIAN AGREEMENT


         This  Agreement  is made  between each  investment  company  advised by
Wright  Investors'  Service  which has  adopted  this  Agreement  in the  manner
provided herein and Investors Bank & Trust Company  (hereinafter  called "Bank",
"Custodian"  and  "Agent"),  a  trust  company  established  under  the  laws of
Massachusetts with a principal place of business in Boston, Massachusetts.

         Whereas,   each  such  investment   company  is  registered  under  the
Investment Company Act of 1940 and has appointed the Bank to act as Custodian of
its  property  and to  perform  certain  duties  as its  Agent,  as  more  fully
hereinafter set forth; and

         Whereas,  the Bank is willing  and able to act as each such  investment
company's Custodian and Agent,  subject to and in accordance with the provisions
hereof;

         Now,  therefore,  in  consideration  of the  premises and of the mutual
covenants and agreements herein contained,  each such investment company and the
Bank agree as follows:

1.       Definitions

         Whenever  used in this  Agreement,  the  following  words and  phrases,
unless the context otherwise requires, shall have the following meanings:

         (a) "Fund"  shall mean the  investment  company  which has adopted this
Agreement.  If the Fund is a Massachusetts  business trust, it may in the future
establish and designate  other separate and distinct  series of shares,  each of
which may be called a  "portfolio";  in such case,  the term  "Fund"  shall also
refer to each such separate series or portfolio.

         (b)      "Board" shall mean the board of directors/trustees/managing 
general partners/director general partners of the Fund, as the case may be.

         (c) "The Depository Trust Company",  a clearing agency  registered with
the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  under  Section 17A of the  Securities
Exchange  Act of 1934 which acts as a securities  depository  and which has been
specifically approved as a securities depository for the Fund by the Board.

         (d) "Participants Trust Company", a clearing agency registered with the
Securities and Exchange  Commission under Section 17A of the Securities Exchange
Act  of  1934  which  acts  as  a  securities  depository  and  which  has  been
specifically approved as a securities depository for the Fund by the Board.

         (e) "Approved  Clearing Agency" shall mean any other domestic  clearing
agency registered with the Securities and Exchange  Commission under Section 17A
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which acts as a securities depository but
only if the  Custodian  has  received  a  certified  copy of a vote of the Board
approving such clearing agency as a securities depository for the Fund.



                                -1-

<PAGE>



         (f)  "Federal  Book-Entry  System"  shall  mean the  book-entry  system
referred to in Rule 17f-4(b) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 for United
States and federal agency securities (i.e., as provided in Subpart O of Treasury
Circular No. 300, 31 CFR 306,  Subpart B of 31 CFR Part 350, and the  book-entry
regulations of federal agencies substantially in the form of Subpart O).

         (g)  "Approved  Foreign  Securities  Depository"  shall  mean a foreign
securities  depository  or clearing  agency  referred to in Rule 17f-4 under the
Investment  Company Act of 1940 for foreign securities but only if the Custodian
has received a certified copy of a vote of the Board  approving such  depository
or clearing agency as a foreign securities depository for the Fund.

         (h)  "Approved  Book-Entry  System for  Commercial  Paper" shall mean a
system  maintained by the Custodian or by a  subcustodian  employed  pursuant to
Section 2 hereof for the holding of commercial paper in book-entry form but only
if the Custodian has received a certified copy of a vote of the Board  approving
the participation by the Fund in such system.

         (i)  The   Custodian   shall  be  deemed  to  have   received   "proper
instructions"  in respect of any of the matters  referred  to in this  Agreement
upon  receipt of written or  facsimile  instructions  signed by such one or more
person or persons as the Board shall have from time to time  authorized  to give
the particular  class of instructions in question.  Electronic  instructions for
the purchase and sale of securities  which are transmitted by Wright  Investors'
Service to the Custodian through the Wright trading system shall be deemed to be
proper instructions;  the Fund shall cause all such instructions to be confirmed
in  writing.  Different  persons  may be  authorized  to give  instructions  for
different purposes.  A certified copy of a vote of the Board may be received and
accepted by the  Custodian as  conclusive  evidence of the authority of any such
person to act and may be considered as in full force and effect until receipt of
written notice to the contrary.  Such instructions may be general or specific in
terms and,  where  appropriate,  may be standing  instructions.  Unless the vote
delegating  authority  to any person or persons  to give a  particular  class of
instructions  specifically requires that the approval of any person,  persons or
committee  shall  first  have been  obtained  before  the  Custodian  may act on
instructions  of that  class,  the  Custodian  shall be under no  obligation  to
question  the right of the  person or persons  giving  such  instructions  in so
doing. Oral instructions will be considered proper instructions if the Custodian
reasonably  believes them to have been given by a person authorized to give such
instructions with respect to the transaction involved.  The Fund shall cause all
oral instructions to be confirmed in writing.  The Fund authorizes the Custodian
to tape record any and all  telephonic or other oral  instructions  given to the
Custodian.  Upon receipt of a certificate  signed by two officers of the Fund as
to the  authorization by the President and the Treasurer of the Fund accompanied
by a  detailed  description  of the  communication  procedures  approved  by the
President and the Treasurer of the Fund, "proper  instructions" may also include
communications effected directly between electromechanical or electronic devices
provided  that the  President  and  Treasurer of the Fund and the  Custodian are
satisfied that such procedures afford adequate safeguards for the Fund's assets.
In performing its duties generally, and more particularly in connection with the
purchase, sale and exchange of securities made by or for the Fund, the Custodian
may  take   cognizance  of  the  provisions  of  the  governing   documents  and
registration  statement  of the Fund as the  same  may  from  time to time be in
effect (and votes, resolutions or proceedings of the shareholders or the Board),
but, nevertheless,  except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Custodian
may assume unless and until  notified in writing to the contrary that  so-called
proper  instructions  received  by it are  not in  conflict  with  or in any way
contrary  to  any  provisions  of  such  governing  documents  and  registration
statement,  or votes,  resolutions  or proceedings  of the  shareholders  or the
Board.

         The Fund hereby  appoints  and employs  the Bank as its  Custodian  and
Agent in  accordance  with and subject to the  provisions  hereof,  and the Bank
hereby accepts such  appointment and  employment.  The Fund agrees to deliver to
the Custodian all  securities,  participation  interests,  cash and other assets
owned by it, and all  payments  of income,  payments  of  principal  and capital
distributions and adjustments  received by it with respect to all securities and
participation  interests  owned by the  Fund  from  time to  time,  and the cash
consideration  received by it for such new or treasury shares  ("Shares") of the
Fund as may be  issued or sold from  time to time.  The  Custodian  shall not be
responsible  for any property of the Fund held by the Fund and not  delivered by
the Fund to the  Custodian.  The Fund will also deliver to the Bank from time to
time  copies of its  currently  effective  charter (or  declaration  of trust or
partnership agreement,  as the case may be), by-laws,  prospectus,  statement of
additional   information   and   distribution   agreement   with  its  principal
underwriter,  together with such resolutions, votes and other proceedings of the
Fund as may be necessary for or convenient to the Bank in the performance of its
duties hereunder.

         The Custodian may from time to time employ one or more subcustodians to
perform  such acts and  services  upon such  terms  and  conditions  as shall be
approved from time to time by the Board of Directors.  Any such  subcustodian so
employed by the Custodian shall be deemed to be the agent of the Custodian,  and
the  Custodian   shall  remain   primarily   responsible   for  the  securities,
participation  interests,  moneys  and other  property  of the Fund held by such
subcustodian. Any foreign subcustodian shall be a bank or trust company which is
an  eligible  foreign  custodian  within the  meaning  of Rule  17f-5  under the
Investment  Company Act of 1940, and the foreign custody  arrangements  shall be
approved by the Board of Directors and shall be in  accordance  with and subject
to the provisions of said Rule. For the purposes of this Agreement, any property
of the Fund held by any such subcustodian  (domestic or foreign) shall be deemed
to be held by the Custodian under the terms of this Agreement.

                  safekeeping. The Custodian  shall hold, earmark and segregate 
                  on its books  and  records  for  the account of the Fund all
                  property of the Fund,including all securities,  participation

                                    the  Board,  specifying  the  amount of such

                                    such payment is to be made.

         I.       Liability for Payment in Advance of Receipt of Securities 
                  Purchased  In any and every   case where payment for purchase 
                  of securities for the account of the Fund is made by the
                  Custodian in advance of receipt of the securities purchased in
                  the absence of  specific  written instructions  signed by two
                  officers of the Fund to so pay in advance, the Custodian shall
                  be absolutely liable to the Fund for such securities to the
                  same extent  as  if  the securities  had been received by the
                  Custodian; except that in the case of a  repurchase agreement
                  entered into by the Fund with a bank which is a member of the
                  Federal Reserve System, the Custodian  may transfer  funds to 
                  the  account of  such  bank  prior to the receipt of (i) the
                  securities in certificate form subject to such repurchase

                  agreement or (ii) written evidence that the securities subject
                  to  such  repurchase   agreement  have  been   transferred  by
                  book-entry  into a segregated  non-proprietary  account of the
                  Custodian  maintained  with the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston
                  or  (iii)  the   safekeeping   receipt,   provided  that  such
                  securities  have in fact been so transfered by book-entry  and
                  the written repurchase  agreement is received by the Custodian
                  in due  course;  and except that if the  securities  are to be
                  purchased  outside the United  States,  payment may be made in
                  accordance with  procedures  agreed to in writing from time to
                  time by the parties hereto.

         J.       Payments for  Repurchases or Redemptions of Shares of the Fund
                  From  such  funds as may be  available  for the  purpose,  but
                  subject to any  applicable  votes of the Board and the current
                  redemption  and   repurchase   procedures  of  the  Fund,  the
                  Custodian shall, upon receipt of written instructions from the
                  Fund or from the Fund's  transfer  agent or from the principal
                  underwriter,  make funds and/or portfolio securities available
                  for payment to holders of Shares who have caused  their Shares
                  to be  redeemed or  repurchased  by the Fund or for the Fund`s
                  account by its transfer agent or principal underwriter.

                  The  Custodian  may maintain a special  checking  account upon
                  which special checks may be drawn by  shareholders of the Fund
                  holding  Shares for which  certificates  have not been issued.
                  Such checking account and such special checks shall be subject
                  to such rules and  regulations  as the  Custodian and the Fund
                  may from time to time  adopt.  The  Custodian  or the Fund may
                  suspend  or  terminate  use of such  checking  account or such
                  special   checks   (either   generally  or  for  one  or  more
                  shareholders)  at any time.  The  Custodian and the Fund shall
                  notify  the  other  immediately  of  any  such  suspension  or
                  termination.

         K.       Appointment of Agents  by the Custodian  The Custodian may at
                  any time or times in its discretion  appoint  (and may at any
                  time remove) any other bank or trust company  (provided such
                  bank or trust company is itself qualified under the Investment
                  Company Act  of  1940  to  act as a custodian or is itself an
                  eligible foreign custodian  within the  meaning of Rule 17f-5
                  under said Act) as the agent of the Custodian  to  carry out 
                  such of the duties and functions of the Custodian described in
                  this Section 3 as the Custodian may from time to time direct;
                  provided, however, that the appointment of any such agent
                  shall not relieve the Custodian of any of its responsibilities
                  or liabilities  hereunder,  and as between  the Fund and the
                  Custodian the Custodian shall be fully responsible for the
                  acts and omissions of any such agent. For the purposes of this
                  Agreement, any property  of the  Fund held by any such agent 
                  shall be deemed to be held by the Custodian hereunder.

         L.       Deposit of Fund Portfolio Securities in Securities Systems The
                  Custodian may deposit and/or maintain securities owned by the
                  Fund

                         (1)      in The Depository Trust Company;

                         (2)      in Participants Trust Company;

                           (a) The Custodian may (either directly or through one
                  or more  subcustodians  employed  pursuant  to  Section 2 keep
                  securities  of the Fund in a Securities  System  provided that
                  such  securities are maintained in a  non-proprietary  account
                  ("Account")  of the  Custodian  or  such  subcustodian  in the
                  Securities  System  which  shall not include any assets of the
                  Custodian or such  subcustodian or any other person other than
                  assets  held  by  the  Custodian  or  such  subcustodian  as a
                  fiduciary, custodian, or otherwise for its customers.

                           (b) The  records  of the  Custodian  with  respect to

                  responsible for maintaining a recordkeeping  system capable of
                  accurately   and   currently   stating  the  Fund's   holdings
                  maintained in each such Securities System.

                           (c) The Custodian shall pay for securities  purchased
                  in  book-entry  form for the account of the Fund only upon (i)
                  receipt of notice or advice  from the  Securities  System that
                  such securities have been transferred to the Account, and (ii)
                  the  making of any entry on the  records of the  Custodian  to
                  reflect such payment and transfer for the account of the Fund.
                  The Custodian  shall transfer  securities sold for the account
                  of the Fund only upon (i) receipt of notice or advice from the
                  Securities  System that payment for such  securities  has been

                  for the  account  of the Fund  shall  identify  the  Fund,  be
                  maintained  for the  Fund  by the  Custodian  and be  promptly
                  provided  to the  Fund at its  request.  The  Custodian  shall
                  promptly send to the Fund  confirmation of each transfer to or
                  from the  account of the Fund in the form of a written  advice
                  or notice of each such  transaction,  and shall furnish to the
                  Fund copies of daily transaction  sheets reflecting each day's
                  transactions  in the Securities  System for the account of the

                           (d) The Custodian shall promptly send to the Fund any
                  report or other  communication  received  or  obtained  by the
                  Custodian  relating  to  the  Securities  System's  accounting

                  securities   deposited  in  any  Securities  System;  and  the
                  Custodian  shall ensure that any agent  appointed  pursuant to

                  Section 2 hereof  shall  promptly  send to the Fund and to the
                  Custodian any report or other  communication  relating to such

                           (e) The Custodian  shall not act under this Paragraph
                  L in the absence of receipt of a certificate  of an officer of
                  the Fund that the Board has  approved  the use of a particular
                  Securities System; the Custodian shall also obtain appropriate
                  assurance  from the  officers  of the Fund  that the Board has
                  annually  reviewed  the  continued  use by the  Fund  of  each
                  Securities  System,  and the Fund  shall  promptly  notify the
                  Custodian  if  the  use  of  a  Securities  System  is  to  be
                  discontinued;  at the request of the Fund,  the Custodian will
                  terminate the use of any such Securities System as promptly as
                  practicable.

                           (f)  Anything  to  the  contrary  in  this  Agreement
                  notwithstanding, the Custodian shall be liable to the Fund for
                  any  loss or  damage  to the  Fund  resulting  from use of the
                  Securities System by reason of any negligence,  misfeasance or
                  misconduct   of  the   Custodian  or  any  of  its  agents  or
                  subcustodians  or of any of its or their employees or from any
                  failure of the Custodian or any such agent or  subcustodian to
                  enforce  effectively  such  rights as it may have  against the
                  Securities  System or any other person; at the election of the
                  Fund,  it shall be entitled to be  subrogated to the rights of
                  the Custodian with respect to any claim against the Securities
                  System or any other person which the  Custodian  may have as a
                  consequence  of any such loss or  damage if and to the  extent
                  that the Fund has not been  made  whole  for any such  loss or
                  damage.

                           responsible  for the  sufficiency  of assets  held in
                           each Fund's  segregated  account in  compliance  with
                           applicable margin maintenance requirements.

                           2.  Futures   Contracts  The  Custodian  shall,  upon
                           receipt of proper  instructions,  receive  and retain
                           confirmations and other documents, if any, evidencing
                           the  purchase  or sale of a  futures  contract  or an
                           option on a futures contract by the Fund; deposit and
                           maintain in a segregated account,  for the benefit of
                           any futures commission merchant, assets designated by
                           the  Fund  as  initial,   maintenance   or  variation
                           "margin" deposits (including mark-to-market payments)
                           intended  to secure  the  Fund's  performance  of its
                           obligations under any futures contracts  purchased or
                           sold or any options on futures  contracts  written by
                           Fund,  in  accordance  with  the  provisions  of  any
                           agreement or agreements among

                                              -16-

<PAGE>

                           the Fund,  the Custodian and such futures  commission
                           merchant,  designed  to comply  with the rules of the
                           Commodity  Futures Trading  Commission  and/or of any
                           contract  market or  commodities  exchange or similar
                           organization   regarding  such  margin   deposits  or
                           payments;  and release and/or transfer assets in such
                           margin  accounts  only in  accordance  with  any such
                           agreements  or rules.  The  Custodian and the futures
                           commission  merchant  shall  be  responsible  for the
                           sufficiency of assets held in the segregated  account
                           in compliance with the applicable margin  maintenance
                           and mark-to-market payment requirements.

                           3. Foreign Exchange Transactions The Custodian shall,
                           pursuant to proper instructions,  enter into or cause
                           a  subcustodian   to  enter  into  foreign   exchange
                           contracts  or options to  purchase  and sell  foreign
                           currencies for spot and future delivery on behalf and
                           for the account of the Fund. Such transactions may be
                           undertaken by the Custodian or subcustodian with such
                           banking or financial  institutions  or other currency
                           brokers, as set forth in proper instructions. Foreign
                           exchange  contracts and options shall be deemed to be
                           portfolio  securities of the Fund;  and  accordingly,
                           the responsibility of the Custodian therefor shall be
                           the  same  as and no  greater  than  the  Custodian's
                           responsibility   in   respect   of  other   portfolio
                           securities  of  the  Fund.  The  Custodian  shall  be
                           responsible  for the  transmittal  to and  receipt of
                           cash from the currency broker or banking or financial
                           institution  with  which  the  contract  or option is
                           made, the  maintenance of proper records with respect
                           to  the   transaction  and  the  maintenance  of  any
                           segregated  account  required in connection  with the
                           transaction.  The  Custodian  shall have no duty with
                           respect to the  selection of the currency  brokers or
                           banking or financial institutions with which the Fund
                           deals or for their  failure to comply  with the terms
                           of any  contract  or  option.  Without  limiting  the
                           foregoing,  it is agreed that upon  receipt of proper
                           instructions  and insofar as funds are made available
                           to the Custodian  for the purpose,  the Custodian may
                           (if   determined   necessary  by  the   Custodian  to
                           consummate a particular transaction on behalf and for
                           the account of the Fund) make free outgoing  payments
                           of  cash  in the  form of  U.S.  dollars  or  foreign
                           currency before  receiving  confirmation of a foreign
                           exchange    contract   or   confirmation   that   the
                           countervalue currency completing the foreign exchange
                           contact has been delivered or received. The Custodian
                           shall not be  responsible  for any costs and interest
                           charges  which  may be  incurred  by the  Fund or the
                           Custodian  as a  result  of the  failure  or delay of
                           third parties to deliver foreign  exchange;  provided
                           that the Custodian shall  nevertheless be held to the
                           standard of care set forth in, and shall be liable to
                           the  Fund  in  accordance  with,  the  provisions  of
                           Section 8.

         V.       Actions Permitted Without Express Authority  The Custodian may
                  in its discretion, without express authority from the Fund:

                           1)       make payments to itself or others for minor 
                                    expenses of handling  securities  or other 
                                    similar items relating to its duties under 
                                    this  Agreement,  provided,  that  all such
                                    payments shall be accounted for by  the
                                    Custodian to the Treasurer of the Fund;

                                              -17-

<PAGE>



                           2)       surrender securities in temporary form for 
                                    securities in definitive form;

                           3)       endorse for collection, in the name of the 
                                    Fund, checks, drafts and other  negotiable
                                    instruments; and

                           4)       in general, attend to all nondiscretionary 
                                    details in  connection  with  the  sale, 
                                    exchange, substitution, purchase, transfer
                                    and other dealings with  the securities and
                                    property of the Fund except as otherwise 
                                    directed by the Fund.

4.       Duties of Bank with Respect to Books of Account and Calculations of Net
         Asset Value

         The Bank shall as Agent (or as Custodian, as the case may be) keep such
books of account (including records showing the adjusted tax costs of the Fund's
portfolio  securities)  and  render  as at the close of  business  on each day a
detailed  statement  of the  amounts  received  or paid  out  and of  securities
received or delivered for the account of the Fund during said day and such other
statements,  including  a  daily  trial  balance  and  inventory  of the  Fund's
portfolio  securities;  and shall furnish such other  financial  information and
data as from time to time requested by the Treasurer or any executive officer of
the Fund;  and shall compute and  determine,  as of the close of business of the
New York  Stock  Exchange,  or at such  other  time or times  as the  Board  may
determine,  the net asset  value of a Share in the Fund,  such  computation  and
determination to be made in accordance with the governing  documents of the Fund
and the votes and instructions of the Board at the time in force and applicable,
and promptly  notify the Fund and its investment  adviser and such other persons
as the Fund may request of the result of such computation and determination.  In
computing the net asset value the  Custodian  may rely upon security  quotations
received by telephone or otherwise from sources or pricing  services  designated
by the Fund by  proper  instructions,  and may  further  rely  upon  information
furnished  to it  by  any  authorized  officer  of  the  Fund  relative  (a)  to
liabilities  of the Fund not  appearing  on its  books  of  account,  (b) to the
existence,  status and proper  treatment of any reserve or reserves,  (c) to any
procedures  established  by the  Board  regarding  the  valuation  of  portfolio
securities,  and (d) to the value to be assigned to any bond,  note,  debenture,
Treasury bill, repurchase agreement, subscription right, security, participation
interests or other asset or property for which market quotations are not readily
available.

5.       Records and Miscellaneous Duties

         The Bank shall  create,  maintain and preserve all records  relating to
its activities and obligations  under this Agreement in such manner as will meet
the  obligations  of the Fund under the  Investment  Company  Act of 1940,  with
particular attention to Section 31 thereof and Rules 31a-1 and 31a-2 thereunder,
applicable federal and state tax laws and any other law or administrative  rules
or  procedures  which may be  applicable  to the Fund.  All books of account and
records  maintained by the Bank in connection with the performance of its duties
under  this  Agreement  shall be the  property  of the Fund,  shall at all times
during  the  regular  business  hours  of the  Bank be open  for  inspection  by
authorized  officers,  employees  or  agents  of the  Fund,  and in the event of
termination  of this  Agreement  shall be delivered to the Fund or to such other
person or persons as shall be designated by the Fund. Disposition of any account
or record after any required period of preservation  shall be only in accordance
with  specific  instructions  received  from the  Fund.  The Bank  shall  assist
generally in the preparation of reports to  shareholders,  to the Securities and
Exchange   Commission,   including   Forms  N-SAR  and  N-1Q,   to  state  "blue
sky"authorities and to others, audits of accounts, and other ministerial matters
of like nature;  and,  upon request,  shall furnish the Fund's  auditors with an
attested inventory of securities held with

                                  -18-

<PAGE>



appropriate  information  as to  securities  in  transit  or in the  process  of
purchase or sale and with such other  information as said auditors may from time
to time  request.  The Custodian  shall also  maintain  records of all receipts,
deliveries and locations of such securities,  together with a current  inventory
thereof, and shall conduct periodic verifications  (including sampling counts at
the Custodian) of certificates representing bonds and other securities for which
it is  responsible  under this  Agreement in such manner as the Custodian  shall
determine  from time to time to be  advisable in order to verify the accuracy of
such  inventory.  The Bank shall not disclose or use any books or records it has
prepared  or  maintained  by reason of this  Agreement  in any manner  except as
expressly  authorized  herein or directed  by the Fund,  and the Bank shall keep
confidential any information obtained by reason of this Agreement.

6.       Opinion of Fund's Independent Public Accountants

         The Custodian  shall take all reasonable  action,  as the Fund may from
time to time request,  to enable the Fund to obtain from year to year  favorable
opinions  from the Fund's  independent  public  accountants  with respect to its
activities   hereunder  in  connection   with  the  preparation  of  the  Fund's
registration  statement  and  Form  N-SAR  or  other  periodic  reports  to  the
Securities and Exchange Commission and with respect to any other requirements of
such Commission.

7.       Compensation and Expenses of Bank

         The Bank shall be entitled to reasonable  compensation for its services
as  Custodian  and Agent,  as agreed upon from time to time between the Fund and
the  Bank.  The Bank  shall  be  entitled  to  receive  from the Fund on  demand
reimbursement  for its  cash  disbursements,  expenses  and  charges,  including
counsel fees, in  connection  with its duties as Custodian and Agent  hereunder,
but excluding salaries and usual overhead expenses.

8.       Responsibility of Bank

         So long as and to the extent that it is in the  exercise of  reasonable
care,  the Bank as Custodian and Agent shall be held harmless in acting upon any
notice, request, consent, certificate or other instrument reasonably believed by
it to be genuine and to be signed by the proper party or parties.

         The Bank as  Custodian  and Agent  shall be entitled to rely on and may
act upon advice of counsel (who may be counsel for the Fund) on all matters, and
shall be without  liability for any action  reasonably taken or omitted pursuant
to such advice.

         The  Bank as  Custodian  and  Agent  shall be held to the  exercise  of
reasonable  care in carrying out the  provisions of this  Agreement but shall be
liable  only  for its own  negligent  or bad  faith  acts  or  failures  to act.
Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  nothing contained in this paragraph is intended
to nor shall it be construed to modify the standards of care and  responsibility
set forth in Section 2 hereof with respect to subcustodians  and in subparagraph
f of Paragraph L of Section 3 hereof with respect to  Securities  Systems and in
subparagraph  g of  Paragraph M of Section 3 hereof with  respect to an Approved
Book-Entry System for Commercial Paper.

         The  Custodian  shall be liable for the acts or  omissions of a foreign
banking   institution   to  the  same  extent  as  set  forth  with  respect  to
subcustodians  generally  in  Section 2 hereof,  provided  that,  regardless  of
whether assets are maintained in the custody of a foreign banking institution, a
foreign  securities  depository or a branch of a U.S. bank, the Custodian  shall
not be liable for any loss, damage, cost,

                                 -19-

<PAGE>



expense,  liability or claim  resulting  from, or caused by, the direction of or
authorization  by the Fund to maintain  custody of any securities or cash of the
Fund in a foreign county  including,  but not limited to, losses  resulting from
nationalization, expropriation, currency restrictions, acts of war, civil war or
terrorism,  insurrection,   revolution,  military  or  usurped  powers,  nuclear
fission, fusion or radiation,  earthquake,  storm or other disturbance of nature
or acts of God.

         If the Fund  requires  the Bank in any capacity to take any action with
respect to  securities,  which  action  involves  the  payment of money or which
action  may,  in the  opinion  of the Bank,  result  in the Bank or its  nominee
assigned  to the Fund  being  liable  for the  payment  of  money  or  incurring
liability of some other form,  the Fund,  as a  prerequisite  to  requiring  the
Custodian to take such action,  shall  provide  indemnity to the Custodian in an
amount and form satisfactory to it.

9.       Persons Having Access to Assets of the Fund

         (i) No trustee,  director,  general partner, officer, employee or agent
of the Fund  shall  have  physical  access to the assets of the Fund held by the
Custodian or be authorized or permitted to withdraw any investments of the Fund,
nor shall the  Custodian  deliver any assets of the Fund to any such person.  No
officer or director,  employee or agent of the  Custodian  who holds any similar
position with the Fund or the  investment  adviser of the Fund shall have access
to the assets of the Fund.

         (ii)  Access  to  assets  of the  Fund  held  hereunder  shall  only be
available to duly authorized officers,  employees,  representatives or agents of
the Custodian or other persons or entities for whose actions the Custodian shall
be responsible to the extent permitted  hereunder,  or to the Fund's independent
public  accountants in connection with their auditing duties performed on behalf
of the Fund.

         (iii) Nothing in this Section 9 shall prohibit any officer, employee or
agent  of the  Fund  or of  the  investment  adviser  of the  Fund  from  giving
instructions  to the Custodian or executing a certificate so long as it does not
result in delivery of or access to assets of the Fund  prohibited  by  paragraph
(i) of this Section 9.

10.      Effective Period, Termination and Amendment; Successor Custodian

         This  Agreement  shall  become  effective  as of its  execution,  shall
continue in full force and effect until terminated as hereinafter provided,  may
be  amended at any time by mutual  agreement  of the  parties  hereto and may be
terminated  by either  party by an  instrument  in writing  delivered or mailed,
postage prepaid to the other party,  such  termination to take effect not sooner
than sixty (60) days after the date of such delivery or mailing;  provided, that
the Fund may at any time by action of its Board, (i) substitute  another bank or
trust  company for the  Custodian  by giving  notice as  described  above to the
Custodian,  or (ii)  immediately  terminate  this  Agreement in the event of the
appointment  of a  conservator  or  receiver  for the  Custodian  by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation or by the Banking Commissioner of The Commonwealth
of  Massachusetts  or upon the  happening of a like event at the direction of an
appropriate  regulatory  agency  or  court  of  competent   jurisdiction.   Upon
termination  of  the  Agreement,  the  Fund  shall  pay to  the  Custodian  such
compensation as may be due as of the date of such termination and shall likewise
reimburse the Custodian for its costs, expenses and disbursements.

         Unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding  Shares of the Fund
vote to have the securities, funds and other properties held hereunder delivered
and paid over to some other bank or trust company, specified in the vote, having
not less than $2,000,000 of aggregate capital, surplus and undivided profits,

                                -20-

<PAGE>



as shown by its last published report, and meeting such other qualifications for
custodians  set forth in the  Investment  Company Act of 1940,  the Board shall,
forthwith,  upon giving or receiving  notice of termination  of this  Agreement,
appoint  as  successor   custodian,   a  bank  or  trust  company   having  such
qualifications.  The  Bank,  as  Custodian,  Agent  or  otherwise,  shall,  upon
termination  of  the  Agreement,   deliver  to  such  successor  custodian,  all
securities  then held  hereunder  and all funds or other  properties of the Fund
deposited  with or held by the  Bank  hereunder  and all  books of  account  and
records kept by the Bank pursuant to this  Agreement,  and all documents held by
the Bank  relative  thereto.  In the event that no such vote has been adopted by
the  shareholders  and that no written order  designating a successor  custodian
shall  have  been  delivered  to the  Bank  on or  before  the  date  when  such
termination  shall  become  effective,  then  the Bank  shall  not  deliver  the
securities,  funds and other  properties  of the Fund to the Fund but shall have
the right to  deliver  to a bank or trust  company  doing  business  in  Boston,
Massachusetts  of its own selection,  having an aggregate  capital,  surplus and
undivided  profits,  as shown by its last  published  report,  of not less  than
$2,000,000,  all  funds,  securities  and  properties  of the  Fund  held  by or
deposited  with the Bank,  and all books of account and records kept by the Bank
pursuant to this Agreement, and all documents held by the Bank relative thereto.
Thereafter  such bank or trust  company  shall be the successor of the Custodian
under this Agreement.

11.      Interpretive and Additional Provisions

     In connection with the operation of this  Agreement,  the Custodian and the
Fund  may  from  time to time  agree on such  provisions  interpretive  of or in
addition to the  provisions  of this  Agreement as may in their joint opinion be
consistent  with the general tenor of this Agreement.  Any such  interpretive or
additional  provisions shall be in a writing signed by both parties and shall be
annexed  hereto,  provided that no such  interpretive  or additional  provisions
shall contravene any applicable federal or state regulations or any provision of
the governing  instruments of the Fund. No interpretive or additional provisions
made as provided in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to be an amendment of
this Agreement.

12.      Notices

         Notices and other writings  delivered or mailed postage  prepaid to the
Fund addressed to 24 Federal  Street,  Boston,  Massachusetts  02110, or to such
other address as the Fund may have  designated  to the Bank,  in writing,  or to
Investors Bank & Trust Company, 24 Federal Street, Boston,  Massachusetts 02110,
shall be  deemed to have  been  properly  delivered  or given  hereunder  to the
respective addressees.

13.      Massachusetts Law to Apply

         This  Agreement   shall  be  construed  and  the   provisions   thereof
interpreted  under  and in  accordance  with  the  laws of The  Commonwealth  of
Massachusetts.

         If the Fund is a Massachusetts  business trust, the Custodian expressly
acknowledges  the  provision  in the Fund's  declaration  of trust  limiting the
personal  liability  of the  trustees  and  shareholders  of the  Fund;  and the
Custodian  agrees that it shall have recourse only to the assets of the Fund for
the  payment of claims or  obligations  as between  the  Custodian  and the Fund
arising out of this Agreement,  and the Custodian shall not seek satisfaction of
any such claim or obligation from the trustees or shareholders of the Fund.

       WHEREAS, the  Fund  intends  to  pay  service  fees  as  contemplated in
subsections  (b) and (d) of Section 26 of Article  III  of the  Rules  of  Fair 
Practice of the  National  Association of  Securities  Dealers, Inc. (the "NASD

       WHEREAS, the Trustees of the Trust have  determined that it is desirable

of this Plan shall be made whenever necessary to assure that no payment is made

front-end and deferred sales charges by Section   26(d) of  Article  III of the
Rules of Fair Practice of the National Association  of  Securities Dealers, Inc.

       3. This Plan shall not take effect until after  it has been  approved by 
both  a majority of (i) those Trustees of the  Trust  who are  not  "interested
persons" of the Trust (as defined in the Act) and  have  no direct or indirect
financial interest in the operation of this Plan or any agreements related to it
(the "Rule 12b-1 Trustees"),  and (ii) all of the Trustees then in office, cast 
in person at a meeting (or meetings) called for the purpose of voting on this
Plan.

       4.  Any  agreements  related  to this Plan shall not take effect   until 
approved  in  the  manner provided  for approval of this Plan in paragraph 3.

       5. This Plan  shall  continue in effect for so long as such  continuance 
is specifically  approved at least annually in the manner provided for approval 
of this Plan in paragraph 3.

       6. The persons authorized to direct  the  disposition of  monies paid or
payable by the Funds pursuant to this Plan or any related agreement shall be the
President or any Vice President of the Trust. Such persons shall provide to the
Trustees and the Trustees shall review, at least quarterly, a written report of 
the amounts so expended and the purposes for which such expenditures were  made.

       7. This Plan may be terminated  as to any Fund  at any time by  vote of a
majority of  the  Rule 12b-1  Trustees, or  by vote  of a  majority  of  the  
outstanding voting securities of that Fund. If the Plan is  terminated  or not
continued by the Trustees as to any Fund and no successor plan is adopted, such 
Fund shall cease to make distribution payments to the Principal Underwriter.

       The term "vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of that
Fund"  shall mean the vote of the lesser (a) 67 per centum or more of the shares
of the particular Fund  present or represented  by proxy at  the meeting if the
holders of more than 50 per centum  of the outstanding  shares of the particular
Fund are present or represented by proxy at the meeting, or (b) more than 50 per
centum of the outstanding shares of the particular Fund.

        8. This Plan may not be amended as  to any Fund to increase  materially 
the limit upon distribution  expenses provided  in paragraph 1 or to change the
nature of such expenses provided in paragraph 2 hereof unless such amendment is
approved by a vote of at least a majority of the



                                                          


<PAGE>


outstanding voting securities of the Fund and no material amendment to the Plan
shall be made unless  approved in the manner provided  for  approval and annual 
renewal in paragraph 3 hereof.

       9. While  this  Plan  is  in effect,  the  selection  an  nomination  of
the Rule 12b-1 Trustees shall  be committed to the discretion of the Rule 12b-1
Trustees.

      10. The  Trust shall preserve  copies  of  this  Plan  and  any  related 
agreements and all reports made pursuant to paragraph 6 hereof, for a period of 
not less than six years from  the date of this Plan, or of the  agreements  of 
such reports,  as the case  may be, the  first two years in a easily accessible 
place.

       11. It is  the  opinion  of the  Trust's  Trustees and officers that the
following are not expenses  primarily intended to result in the sale of shares
issued by the Funds: fees and expenses of registering  shares of any or all of
the Funds under federal or state laws  regulating the sale of securities;  fees 
and expenses of registering the trust  as  a broker-dealer or of registering an 
agent  of  the  Trust  under  federal  or  state  laws  regulating  the sale of
securities; fees of registering,  at  the  request  of  the  Trust, 
agents or representatives of a principal underwriter or distributor of the Trust
under federal or state laws regulating the sale of securities, provided that no
sales commission or "load" is charged on sales of shares of the Funds' and fees
and expenses of preparing and setting in type the Trust's registration statement
under the Securities Act of 1933. Should  such expenses be deemed by a court or
agency  having  jurisdiction to be expenses primarily intended to result in the
sale of  shares  of  the  Funds,  they  shall  be  considered  to  be  expenses
contemplated by and included in this Distribution  Plan but not subject  to the
limitation prescribed in paragraph 1 hereof.

       12.  This Plan shall replace and be  substituted  for the  Original Plan
as of the opening of business on July 7, 1993, and this Plan shall be effective
 as of such time.

       IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Fund has executed this Amended Distribution Plan
on July 7, 1993.

                                                               EXHIBIT 16


               SCHEDULE FOR COMPUTATION OF PERFORMANCE QUOTATIONS


     The average annual total  return will be  calculated  using the  following
formula:

                               P ( 1 + T )n = ERV

where:       P  =  A hypothetical initial payment of $1,000
             T  =  Average annual total return
             n  =  Number of years

           ERV = Ending redeemable value of a hypothetical $1,000 payment at the
end of the period.


     Each Fund's  yield is computed by dividing  its net investment  income per
share earned  during a recent 30-day period by the product of the average daily
number of shares outstanding and entitled to receive dividends during the period
and the maximum  offering  price per share on the last day of the  period.  The
results are compounded on a bond  equivalent (semi-annual)  basis and then they
are annualized. Net investment income per share is equal to the Fund's dividends
and  interest earned  during the period,  reduced by accrued  expenses  for the
period.

     The  yield earned  by the Fund  will be  calculated  using  the  following
formula:

                                          6
                  Yield = 2    [( a-b + 1)   + 1]
                                  ---
                                  cd

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


     A Fund's yield or total return may be compared to the Consumer  Price Index
and various  domestic or foreign  securities  indices.  A Fund's  yield or total
return and comparisons with these indices may be used in  advertisements  and in
information furnished to present or prospective shareholders.

     From time to time, evaluations of a Fund's performance made by independent
sources may be used in advertisements and in information furnished to present or
prospective  shareholders.  These  may  include  rankings  prepared  by  Lipper
Analytical Services, Inc., an independent service which monitors the performance
of mutual funds. The Lipper performance  analysis  reflects the reinvestment of
dividends  and capital gain distributions  but does not take sales charges into
consideration and is prepared without regard to tax consequences.




                                                                   EXHIBIT 17
