Institutional Cash Reserves Fund
Letter to Shareholders
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We are pleased to present you with this annual report for the BT Institutional
Cash Reserves Fund (the "Fund"), providing a detailed review of the market, the
Portfolio, and our outlook. Included are a complete financial summary of the
Fund's operations and a listing of the Portfolio's holdings.
MARKET ACTIVITY
The money markets were dominated throughout 1998 by the global financial crisis,
which began in Southeast Asia and spread to countries around the world.
o During the first half of the year, the hangover effects of the Southeast
Asian financial crisis spread to Hong Kong and Japan. This both focused the
U.S. markets on that region and also supported a flight to quality and, in
turn, a U.S. Treasury rally.
o In the second half of 1998, Russia devalued its currency and defaulted on
its domestic debt, despite an International Monetary Fund (IMF) bailout
attempt; weak commodity prices dampened the economic outlook for Latin
America in general and Brazil in particular; and economic instability in Asia
was ongoing. All of this buoyed the U.S. Treasury rally.
Concerns over the impact of foreign turmoil on U.S. economic growth did not
surface until the second half of the year.
o Interest rates in the first six months remained relatively stable. The
combination of a strong economy--especially in the service sector--and low
inflation allowed the Federal Reserve Board to keep interest rates unchanged
at 5.5%.
o During the third quarter, investors began to focus more heavily on the
Asian contagion and on the political problems in the Clinton administration.
In addition, a major leveraged hedge fund went bankrupt, requiring a bailout
by a consortium of Wall Street firms. The announcement of this
Fed-orchestrated bailout package forced corporate credit spreads to widen
significantly and liquidity to decrease. This led, in turn, to a further
rally in U.S. Treasuries plus significant buying of high quality domestic
paper.
Ratings
S&P: AAAm
Moody's: AAA
Citing both global and U.S. developments and their prospects on the U.S.
economy, the Federal Reserve Board effectively battled investors' growing risk
aversion and escalating illiquidity with three rapid cuts of interest rates in
the second half of the year. These easing moves of 0.25% each--on September 29,
October 15, and November 17--restored the financial markets to a more peaceful
state and allowed the money markets, in particular, to finish out the year on a
relatively calm note.
Money markets also benefited from volatility in the equity markets. This
volatility buoyed a rally in the U.S. fixed income market in general and strong
cash inflows into the money markets in particular. Investors moved assets from
equity funds, both domestic and foreign, seeking both the greater liquidity and
the perceived safety of the money markets. Also fueling positive fixed income
market sentiment toward the end of the year was a plunge in oil prices and other
commodities to their lowest level in decades.
Status at December 31, 1998
Seven day effective yield: 5.20%
Average maturity: 36 days
Net assets: $2,367.8 million
INVESTMENT REVIEW
By staying disciplined to the purchase of high quality instruments and actively
adjusting sector allocation as market conditions changed, we were able to
produce highly competitive yields in the Institutional Cash Reserves Fund.

Only Money Funds Average 4.87% 4.99%
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We maintained a neutral, close-to-the benchmark weighted average maturity
position through most of the first half of the year. This strategy was based on
the uncertainty surrounding the impact of the Asian financial turmoil on the
U.S. financial markets as well as on the Federal Reserve Board's decision to
keep interest rates on hold. Also, the flat yield curve gave us few
opportunities to extend maturities to increase yield. Instead, we sought to add
value by increasing the Fund's holdings in floating rate securities, which
proved to be effective in producing competitive Fund returns. In anticipation of
Federal Reserve Board interest rate cuts, we began extending the Fund's average
maturity in the third quarter. We were careful to add exposure to high quality
counterparties, while limiting exposure to those we felt might experience
difficulties in the worsening Asian crisis.
MANAGER OUTLOOK
Economic and financial market performance have run on virtually parallel tracks
in 1998, and that pattern seems likely to persist into 1999. Looking ahead for
the near term, we believe the money markets should remain fairly positive,
though largely range-bound, without the dramatic rally of the year 1998.
o Strong momentum in the U.S. economy--in terms of consumer spending,
employment, housing, and business investment--should carry into early 1999,
before weakening later in the year.
o The global economic crisis continues to loom and we anticipate GDP growth
of around 2.5% in 1999--a positive backdrop for inflation to stay low and for
the safe haven status of U.S. Treasuries to continue.
- -------------------
*Past performance is not indicative of future results. Yields will vary. Yield
quotes for money market funds most closely reflect the fund's current earnings.
Although money market funds seek to maintain a share value of $1.00 per share,
it is possible to lose money by investing in the fund. "Current yield" refers to
the income generated by an investment in the Fund over a 7-day period. This
income is then "annualized." The "effective yield" is calculated similarly but,
when annualized, the income earned by an investment in the Fund is assumed to be
reinvested. The "effective yield" will be slightly higher than the "current
yield" because of the compounding effect of this assumed reinvestment. Mutual
funds are not bank deposits or obligations of any bank, are not guaranteed by
any bank, and are not insured or guaranteed by the U.S. government, the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board or any other government
agency. Investment in mutual funds involves investment risk, including possible
loss of principal.

Diversification of Portfolio Investments
By Asset Type as of December 31, 1998
(percentages are based on net assets)
Funding Agreement 1%
Eurodollar Time Deposits 16%
Floating Rate Notes 21%
Yankee Certificates of Deposit 8%
Eurodollar Certificates of Deposit 8%
Commercial Paper 42%
US Treasury Securities 1%
Certificates of Deposit 3%
o We believe Federal Reserve Board monetary policy is likely on hold, not
changing interest rates for the foreseeable future in the face of solid
economic growth, healthy financial markets, and the recent softening of the
dollar.
Given this scenario and the slightly positive yield curve, we intend to stay
slightly longer than our benchmark for the near term. At the same time, we will
look to take advantage of any spike in yields or any issue-specific attractive
value opportunities when they arise.
We will, of course, continue to closely observe economic conditions and how they
affect the financial markets, as we seek to provide high current income
consistent with liquidity and capital preservation.
As always, we appreciate your ongoing support of the BT Institutional Cash
Reserves Fund, and we look forward to continuing to serve your investment needs
for many years ahead.

Institutional Cash Reserves Fund
Notes to Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note 1--Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
A. Organization
BT Institutional Funds (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (the "Act"), as amended, as an open-end management investment
company. The Trust was organized on March 26, 1990, as an unincorporated
business trust under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The
Institutional Cash Reserves (the "Fund") is one the institutional funds offered
to "accredited investors" as defined under the Securities Act of 1933. The Fund
commenced operations and began offering shares of beneficial interest January
25, 1994. The Fund invests substantially all of its assets in the Cash
Management Portfolio (the "Portfolio"). The Portfolio is an open-end management
investment company registered under the Act. The value of the Fund's investment
in the Portfolio reflects its proportionate interest in the net assets of the
Portfolio. At December 31, 1998, the Fund's investment was approximately 43% of
the Portfolio.
The financial statements of the Portfolio, including a listing of assets held,
are contained elsewhere in the report and should be read in conjunction with the
Fund's Financial Statements.
B. Security Valuation
Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is discussed in Note 1B of the
Portfolio's Notes to Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in this
report.
C. Investment Income
The Fund earns income, net of expenses, daily on its investment in the
Portfolio. All of the net investment income and realized and unrealized gains
and losses from the security transactions of the portfolio are allocated pro
rata among the investors in the Portfolio at the time of such determination.
D. Organization Expenses
Costs incurred by the Fund in connection with its organization and initial
registration are being amortized evenly over a five-year period.
E. Distributions
It is the Fund's policy to declare dividends daily and pay them monthly to
shareholders from net investment income. Dividends and distributions payable to
shareholders are recorded by the Fund on the ex-dividend date. Distributions of
net capital gains, if any, earned by the Fund are made annually to the extent
they exceed capital loss carryforwards.
F. Federal Income Taxes
It is the Fund's policy to continue to comply with the requirements of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and
distribute all of its taxable income to shareholders. Therefore, no federal
income tax provision is required.
G. 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. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
The Trust accounts separately for the assets, liabilities, and operations of the
Fund. Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to that Fund, while
expenses that are attributable to all of the Trust's Fund are allocated among
them.
Note 2--Fees and Transactions with Affiliates
The Fund 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 Fund in return for a fee computed daily and paid
monthly at an annual rate of .05% of the Fund's average daily net assets.
Bankers Trust has voluntarily undertaken to waive its fees and reimburse
expenses of the Fund, to the extent necessary, to limit all expenses to 0.18% of
the average daily net assets of the Fund, including expenses of the Portfolio.
ICC Distributors, Inc., a member of the Forum Group of Companies, provides
distribution services to the Fund. For the year ended December 31, 1998, there
were no reimbursable expenses incurred under this agreement.
The Portfolio, in which the Fund invests in, is a participant with other
affiliated entities in a revolving credit facility and a discretionary demand
line of credit facility (collectively the "credit facilities") in the amounts of
$50,000,000 and $100,000,000, respectively, which expire March 15, 1999. A
commitment fee of .07% per annum on the average daily amount of the available
commitment is payable on a calendar quarter basis, and apportioned equally among
all participants. Amounts borrowed under the credit facilities will bear
interest at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus .45%. No
amounts were drawn down or outstanding under the credit facilities as of and for
the year ended December 31, 1998.
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 security to Bankers Trust New York Corporation, the
parent of the Advisor, at the same price, also pursuant to a put agreement. As a
result of these transactions the Fund's Financial Highlights for the period
January 25, 1994 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 1994 reflects its
pro rata share of the Portfolio's realized loss on the sale of these securities
and a capital contribution in the amount of $5,865,995. In 1996, Bankers Trust
contributed capital in the amount of $348,087 to reimburse the Fund for capital
losses incurred in prior years.
Notes 3--Capital Loss Carryforwards
At December 31, 1998, capital loss carryforwards available as a reduction
against future net realized capital gains consisted of $316,876, which will
expire in 2002 and $ 17,779, which will expire in 2005.

Institutional Cash Reserves Fund
Report of Independent Accountants
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To the Trustees of BT Institutional Funds and Shareholders of
Institutional Cash Reserves Fund:
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities and the
related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial
highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
the Institutional Cash Reserves Fund (one of the Funds comprising BT
Institutional Funds, hereafter referred to as the "Fund") at December 31, 1998,
and the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the
financial highlights for each of the fiscal periods presented, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements and
financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the Fund's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 1998 by
correspondence with the transfer agent, provide a reasonable basis for the
opinion expressed above.

Cash Management Portfolio
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 is in accordance with Rule 2a-7
of the Investment Company Act of 1940 and represents the fair value of the
Portfolio's investments.
C. Security Transactions and Interest Income
Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest income
is recorded on the accrual basis and includes amortization of premium and
accretion of discount on investments. Realized gains and losses from securities
transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis.
All of the net investment income and realized and unrealized gains
and losses from the security transactions of the Portfolio are allocated pro
rata among the investors in the Portfolio at the time of such determination.
D. Repurchase Agreements
The Portfolio may enter into repurchase agreements with financial institutions
deemed to be creditworthy by the Portfolios' Investment Advisor, subject to the
seller's agreement to repurchase 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 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. However, in the event of a default or bankruptcy by the seller,
realization and/or retention of the collateral may be subject to legal
proceedings.
E. Federal Income Taxes
The Portfolio is considered a partnership under the Internal Revenue Code.
Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.
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. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
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 .05% of the Portfolio's average daily net
assets. For the year ended December 31, 1998, administrative and service fee's
amounted to $2,673,031, of which $249,048 was payable at the end of the period.
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 an annual rate of .15% of the Portfolio's
average daily net assets. For the year ended December 31, 1998, advisory fees
amounted to $8,019,093 of which $747,145 was payable at the end of the period.
Bankers Trust has voluntarily undertaken to waive its fees and reimburse
expenses of the Portfolio, to the extent necessary, to limit all expenses to
.18% of the average daily net assets of the Portfolio.
In 1994, the Portfolio sold certain structured notes carried at par to an
unrelated third party financial institution at par plus accrued interest to a
put agreement and that third party financial institution immediately resold such
security to Bankers Trust New York Corporation, the parent of the Advisor, at
the same price, also pursuant to a put agreement. As a result of these
transactions the Portfolio's Financial Highlights for the year ended December
31, 1994, reflects the Portfolio's realized loss on the sale of these securities
and a capital contribution in the amount of $18,718,663. In 1996, Bankers Trust
contributed capital in the amount of $1,113,488 to reimburse the Cash Management
Portfolio for capital losses incurred in prior years.
The Cash Management Portfolio is a participant with other affiliated entities in
a revolving credit facility and a discretionary demand line of credit facility
(collectively the "credit facilities") in the amounts of $50,000,000 and
$100,000,000, respectively, which expire March 15, 1999. A commitment fee of
.07% per annum on the average daily amount of the available commitment is
payable on a quarterly basis and apportioned equally among all participants.
Amounts borrowed under the credit facilities will bear interest at a rate per
annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus .45%. No amounts were drawn down or
outstanding under the credit facilities as of and for the year ended December
31, 1998.

Cash Management Portfolio
Report of Independent Accountants

To the Trustees and Holders of Beneficial Interest of
Cash Management Portfolio:
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of net assets and the related
statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial
highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
the Cash Management Portfolio (the "Portfolio") at December 31, 1998, and the
results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial
highlights for each of the fiscal periods presented, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements and
financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the Portfolio's management; our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 1998 by
correspondence with the custodian, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion
expressed above.
