Investment Trust Company which in turn invests in companies with
market capitalization of at least $800 million and book-to-market
ratios in the upper 30% of large publicly traded non-U.S. companies.
Country weightings reflect the EAFE Index market capitalization weight,
with Japan limited to 38%.
The portfolio's returns in fiscal 1997 reflected the performance of
large, non-U.S. companies with high book-to-market ratios.
Past performance is not predictive of future performance.

(a) Had certain waivers and reimbursements not been in effect, the ratios of
    expenses to average net assets for the periods ended November 30, 1996, 1995
    and 1994 would have been 0.57%, 0.72% and 0.72%, respectively and the ratios
    of net investment income to average net assets for the periods ended
    November 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994 would have been 2.21%, 1.71% and 1.75%,
    respectively.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
A. ORGANIZATION:
 
    Dimensional Investment Group Inc. (the "Fund") is an open-end management
investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, whose
shares are offered to institutional investors, retirement plans and clients of
registered investment advisors. The Fund currently offers thirteen portfolios,
of which The DFA International Value Portfolio (the "Portfolio") is presented in
this report.
 
    The Portfolio invests all of its assets in The DFA International Value
Series (the "Series") a corresponding series of The DFA Investment Trust
Company. At November 30, 1997, the Portfolio owned 23% of the outstanding shares
of the Series. The financial statements of the Series are included elsewhere in
this report and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of
the Portfolio.
 
B. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
 
    The following significant accounting policies are in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies. Such policies
are consistently followed by the Fund in preparation of its financial
statements. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles may require management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
    1.  SECURITY VALUATION:  The shares of the Series held by the Portfolio are
valued at its respective daily net asset value.
 
    2.  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES:  It is the Portfolio's intention to continue to
qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable
income. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income tax is required in the
financial statements.
 
    3.  OTHER:  Security transactions are accounted for on the date the
securities are purchased or sold. Costs used in determining realized gains and
losses on the sale of investment securities are those of specific securities
sold. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Expenses directly attributable to the Portfolio or to the
Series are directly charged. Common expenses are allocated using methods
determined by the Board of Directors.
 
C. INVESTMENT ADVISOR:
 
    Dimensional Fund Advisors Inc. ("DFA" or the "Advisor") provides
administrative services to the Portfolio, including supervision of services
provided by others, providing information to the shareholders and to the Board
of Directors, and other administrative services. The Advisor provides investment
advisory services to the Series. For the year ended November 30, 1997, the
Portfolio's administrative fees were computed daily and paid monthly to the
Advisor based on an effective annual rate of 0.20 of 1% of average daily net
assets.
 
    Certain officers of the Portfolio are also officers, directors and
shareholders of the Advisor.
 
    The Advisor has agreed to waive its fees and reimburse the Portfolio through
March 28, 1996 to the extent necessary to keep the annual combined expenses of
the Portfolio and its respective Master Fund to not more than 0.65% of average
daily net assets.

E. LINE OF CREDIT:
 
    The Fund, together with other DFA-advised portfolios, has entered into a $50
million unsecured line of credit with its domestic custodian bank. Each
portfolio is permitted to borrow, subject to its investment limitations, up to a
maximum of $50 million. Borrowings under the line are charged interest at the
current overnight federal funds rate plus a variable rate determined at the date
of borrowing. Each portfolio is individually, and not jointly liable for its
particular advances under the line. There is no commitment fee on the unused
portion of the line of credit. There were no borrowings under the line of credit
by the Portfolio during the year ended November 30, 1997.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
TO THE SHAREHOLDERS AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF
DIMENSIONAL INVESTMENT GROUP INC.:
 
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of the
Dimensional Investment Group Inc., The DFA International Value Portfolio, as of
November 30, 1997, and the related statement of operations for the year then
ended, the statements of changes in net assets for the two years in the period
then ended and financial highlights for each of the periods presented. These
financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the
Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of investments owned as of
November 30, 1997, by correspondence with the custodian. 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Dimensional Investment Group Inc., The DFA International Value Portfolio, as of
November 30, 1997, and the results of its operations for the year then ended,
the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended
and its financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

                        THE DFA INVESTMENT TRUST COMPANY
 
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
A. ORGANIZATION:
 
    The DFA Investment Trust Company (the "Trust") is an open-end management
investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The
Trust currently offers fourteen portfolios, of which The DFA International Value
Series (the "Series") is presented in this report.
 
B. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
 
    The following significant accounting policies are in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies. Such policies
are consistently followed by the Trust in preparation of its financial
statements. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles may require management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
    1.  SECURITY VALUATION:  Securities held by the Series which are listed on a
securities exchange are valued at the last quoted sale price. Price information
on listed securities is taken from the exchange where the security is primarily
traded. Unlisted securities for which market quotations are readily available
are valued at the mean between the most recent bid and asked prices. Securities
for which quotations are not readily available are valued in good faith at fair
value using methods determined by the Board of Directors.
 
    2.  FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION:  Securities, other assets and liabilities
of The DFA International Value Series whose values are initially expressed in
foreign currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at the bid price of such
currency against U.S. dollars last quoted by a major bank. Dividend and interest
income and certain expenses are translated to U.S. dollars at the rate of
exchange on their respective accrual dates. Receivables and payables denominated
in foreign currencies are marked to market daily based on daily exchange rates
and exchange gains or losses are realized upon ultimate receipt or disbursement.
 
    3.  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES:  It is the Series' intention to continue to
qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable
income. Accordingly, no provision for Federal taxes is required in the financial
statements.
 
    4.  REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS:  The Series may purchase money market instruments
subject to the seller's agreement to repurchase them at an agreed upon date and
price. The seller will be required on a daily basis to maintain the value of the
collateral subject to the agreement at not less than the repurchase price
(including accrued interest). The agreements are conditioned upon the collateral
being deposited under the Federal Reserve book-entry system with the Trust's
custodian or a third party sub-custodian. All open repurchase agreements were
entered into on November 28, 1997.
 
    5.  FOREIGN MARKET RISKS:  Investments in foreign markets may involve
certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investments in
the United States, including the possibility of future political and economic
developments and the level of foreign government supervision and regulation of
foreign securities markets. These markets are generally smaller, less liquid and
more volatile than the major securities markets in the United States.
Consequently, acquisition and disposition of securities by the Fund may be
inhibited.
 
    6.  OTHER:  Security transactions are accounted for on the date the
securities are purchased or sold. Costs used in determining realized gains and
losses on the sale of investment securities are those of specific securities
sold. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Discount and
premium on securities purchased are amortized over the lives of the respective
securities. Expenses directly attributable to a Series are directly charged.
Common expenses are allocated using methods determined by the Board of
Directors.

C. INVESTMENT ADVISOR:
 
    Dimensional Fund Advisors Inc. ("DFA" or the "Advisor") provides investment
advisory services to the Series. For the year ended November 30, 1997, the
Series' advisory fees were computed daily and paid monthly to the Advisor based
on an effective annual rate of 0.20 of 1% of average daily net assets.
 
    Certain officers of the Series are also officers, directors and shareholders
of the Advisor.
 
D. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES:
 
    For the year ended November 30, 1997, the Series made the following
purchases and sales of investment securities other than U.S. Government
Securities (amounts in thousands):

F. LINE OF CREDIT:
 
    The Trust, together with other DFA-advised portfolios, has entered into a
$50 million unsecured line of credit with its domestic custodian bank. Each
portfolio is permitted to borrow, subject to its investment limitations, up to a
maximum of $50 million. Borrowings under the line are charged interest at the
current overnight federal funds rate plus a variable rate determined at the date
of borrowing. Each portfolio is individually, and not jointly liable for its
particular advances under the line. There is no commitment fee on the unused
portion of the line of credit. There were no borrowings under the line of credit
by the Portfolio during the year ended November 30, 1997.
 
G. COMPONENTS OF NET ASSETS:

H. SECURITIES LENDING:
 
    Loans of international securities are required at all times to be secured by
collateral at least equal to 105% of the market value of the securities on loan.
However, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the
agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral may be subject to
legal proceedings. In the event that the borrower fails to return loaned
securities, and cash collateral being maintained by the borrower is insufficient

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
TO THE SHAREHOLDERS AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF
THE DFA INVESTMENT TRUST COMPANY:
 
We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets of The DFA Investment
Trust Company, The DFA International Value Series, as of November 30, 1997, and
the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of
changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the
financial highlights for each of the periods presented. These financial
statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of investments owned as of
November 30, 1997, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The
DFA Investment Trust Company, The DFA International Value Series, as of November
30, 1997, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes
in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and its
financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
