NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A. Organization

The Cash Management Portfolio (the "Portfolio") is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Act"), as amended, as an open-end
management investment company. The Portfolio was organized on March 26, 1990 as
an unincorporated trust under the laws of New York, and commenced operations on
July 23, 1990. The Declaration of Trust permits the Board of Trustees (the
"Trustees") to issue beneficial interests in the Portfolio.

B. Security Valuation

Investments are valued at amortized cost, which has been determined by the
Trustees to represent fair value of the Portfolio's investments.

C. Security Transactions and Investment Income

Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis (date the order
to buy or sell is executed). Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis
and includes amortization of premium and discount on investments. Realized
gains and losses from securities transactions are recorded on the identified
cost basis.

The Portfolio may enter into repurchase agreements with financial institutions
deemed to be creditworthy by the Portfolio's Investment Adviser, subject to the
seller's agreement to repurchase and the Portfolio's agreement to resell such
securities at a mutually agreed upon price. Securities purchased subject to
repurchase agreements are deposited with the Portfolio's custodian, and
pursuant to the terms of the repurchase agreement must have an aggregate market
value greater than or equal to the repurchase price plus accrued interest at
all times. If the value of the underlying securities falls below the value of
the repurchase price plus accrued interest, the Portfolio will require the
seller to deposit additional collateral by the next business day.  If the
request for additional collateral is not met, or the seller defaults on its
repurchase obligation, the Portfolio maintains the right to sell the underlying
securities at market value and may claim any resulting loss against the seller.

D. Investment Income

The Portfolio determines its net investment income on each valuation day and
allocates all such income as well as any realized gains and losses from
security transactions pro rata among the investors in the Portfolio at the time
of such determination.

E. Federal Income Taxes

It is the Portfolio's policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. The cost
of securities in the Portfolio for federal income tax purposes is the same as
for financial reporting purposes.

F. Other

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements.

NOTE 2 - FEES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

The Portfolio has entered into an Administration and Services Agreement with
Bankers Trust Company ("Bankers Trust"). Under this Administration and Services
Agreement, Bankers Trust provides administrative, custody, transfer agency and
shareholder services to the Portfolio in return for a fee computed daily and
paid monthly at an annual rate of 0.05 of 1% of the Portfolio's average daily
net assets. For the year ended December 31, 1995, this fee aggregated
$1,282,576.

The Portfolio has entered into an Advisory Agreement with Bankers Trust. Under
this Advisory Agreement, the Portfolio pays Bankers Trust an advisory fee
computed daily and paid monthly at the annual rate of 0.15 of 1% of the
Portfolio's average daily net assets.  For the year ended December 31, 1995,
this fee aggregated $3,847,729.

Bankers Trust has voluntarily undertaken to waive and reimburse expenses of the
Portfolio, to the extent necessary, to limit all expenses to 0.18 of 1% of the
average daily net assets of the Portfolio. For the year ended December 31,
1995, expenses of the Portfolio have been reduced by $578,251.

In 1994, the Portfolio sold certain structured notes carried at par to an
unrelated third party financial institution at par plus accrued interest
pursuant to a put agreement and that third party financial institution
immediately resold such securities to Bankers Trust New York Corporation, the
parent of the Adviser, at the same price, also pursuant to a put agreement. As
a result of these transactions the Portfolio's Statement of Changes in Net
Assets for the year ended December 31, 1994 reflects a realized loss on the
sale of these securities and a capital contribution in the amount of
$18,718,663.

Certain trustees and officers of the Portfolio are also directors, officers
and/or employees of Signature. None of the trustees so affiliated received
compensation for services as trustee of the Portfolio. Similarly, none of the
Portfolio's officers received compensation from the Portfolio.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
================================================================================

To the Trustees and Holders of Beneficial Interest
of the Cash Management Portfolio:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of the
Cash Management Portfolio, including the schedule of portfolio investments, as
of December 31, 1995, 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 five years in
the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are
the responsibility of the Portfolio's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based
on our audits.

We have 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 securities owned as of
December 31, 1995 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
Cash Management Portfolio as of December 31, 1995, the results of its
operations, the changes in its net assets, and the financial highlights for the
periods referred to above, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles
