A LETTER TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Shareholder:
The international stock markets produced mixed results during the first six
months of 1997. Strong performance in Europe and Latin America helped the
Landmark International Equity Fund produce positive returns, but declines in
Asia prevented those returns from matching the gains achieved in the U.S. stock
market. In addition, many of the markets in which the Fund invests performed
better in local currency terms than they did when translated into U.S. dollars,
the result of a stronger U.S. dollar relative to most other major currencies.
The Landmark Funds' investment adviser, Citibank, N.A., managed the
Landmark International Equity Fund to achieve its investment objective:
long-term capital growth. Through its investment in International Equity
Portfolio, the Fund invests primarily in common stocks of non-U.S. issuers,
including issuers in developing countries, with an emphasis on established
companies with medium to large capitalizations and seasoned management teams.
This report reviews the Portfolio's investment activities and performance
during the six-month period ended June 30, 1997, and provides a summary of
Citibank's perspective on and outlook for the international stock markets. On
behalf of the Board of Trustees of the Landmark Funds, I want to thank you for
your confidence and participation.
/s/ Philip Coolidge

MARKET ENVIRONMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In overseas markets, stocks produced mixed results. On the positive side,
some of Europe's equity markets exceeded even the U.S. market's returns.
Companies in Switzerland, Germany, Spain and Scandinavia performed exceptionally
well as the region entered a period of economic recovery characterized by
declining interest rates and expectations of higher corporate profits. The
United Kingdom generally lagged continental Europe, but produced modestly
positive returns in an environment characterized by a strengthening currency, a
tighter monetary policy and the uncertainty of a new government.
In Japan, signs of an economic recovery are finally emerging, and Japanese
stocks rose during the second quarter of 1997 after a lackluster first quarter.
The recovery appears to be led by exporters benefiting from strong economies and
robust consumer spending in the U.S. and Europe. In contrast, however, domestic
Japanese companies have not yet demonstrated similar signs of impending growth,
suggesting that Japan's economic problems may not be completely resolved.
In the emerging markets, most of the so-called Asian "Tiger" markets declined
sharply as a real-estate induced economic crisis hit Thailand and affected
neighboring markets. Only Hong Kong and Indonesia showed gains. On the other
hand, the emerging markets of Latin America rose as many of these nations appear
to be making progress toward participation in the global business arena.

PORTFOLIO MANAGER
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TREVOR FORBES
Vice President, Citibank, N.A.
Mr. Forbes is based in Citibank's London office, and is manager of the
International Equity Portfolio. Mr. Forbes is the head of Citibank's
International Equity Department in London and the senior portfolio manager of
global, non-U.S. equity and European equity portfolios for institutional
accounts. Before joining Citibank in 1991, Mr. Forbes managed the investment
business of Abbey Life. The selection of specific securities is made by
committees of Citibank investment personnel specializing in investments in the
countries selected by Mr. Forbes.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE PORTFOLIO MANAGER RESPONDS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Throughout the period, we maintained our broadly diversified approach to
investing internationally. Using Morgan Stanley's EAFE Index as our benchmark,
we first assessed economic and market conditions in the various stock markets to
determine which held the most promise. That analysis led us to focus a
disproportionate amount of the Portfolio's assets in continental Europe, where
we believed that the early stages of economic recovery would benefit future
corporate earnings. We also increased our exposure to Japanese exporting stocks
in anticipation of their recovery, shifting assets from Hong Kong stocks that
had already performed well. The result of this asset allocation strategy was
returns modestly greater than the EAFE Index, but with substantially less
volatility.
We also adjusted the mix of industries and economic sectors within each
market. At the end of the period, the Portfolio had less exposure relative to
our benchmark in financial stocks, especially in Japan, and higher exposure to
capital equipment stocks, especially in Japan and Germany.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
QUOTES FROM THE PORTFOLIO MANAGER
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Europe showed impressive overall growth during the first half of the year, and
some markets even exceeded the performance of the U.S. stock market."
"The Hong Kong market changed dramatically in anticipation of the transfer of
power from Great Britain to China, so we're taking a cautious approach."
"We've made some substantial changes to the mix of stocks in the Portfolio over
the past six months, and our list of top-ten holdings reflects those changes."
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STRATEGY AMD OUTLOOK
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To a certain extent, we believe that the near term outlook for
international stocks is tied to the fortunes of the U.S. economy and stock
market. If the U.S. dollar remains strong, as we believe it will, overseas
exporters should benefit. Europe appears to be particularly attractive: As
interest rates decline during the economic recovery, corporate earnings should
grow. In addition, many European companies are just starting the restructuring
process that has already helped U.S. companies boost their earnings and stock
prices.
We intend to proceed cautiously in Japan, evaluating the situation there
carefully before widening our focus from major exporters to domestic companies.
We expect the rest of Asia, however, to remain relatively unattractive. In Latin
America, we anticipate further growth in selected markets. If U.S. economic
growth continues unabated, it is likely that Latin American economies closely
tied to the United States economy, such as Mexico's, will benefit most. Finally,
we are seeing opportunities arise in the emerging markets of Eastern Europe, and
we will continue to watch for opportunities there.

LANDMARK INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Landmark International Equity Fund (the "Fund") is a separate diversified series
of Landmark International Funds (the "Trust"), a Massachusetts business trust.
The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as
a diversified, open-end, management investment company. The Fund invests all of
its investable assets in International Equity Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), a
management investment company for which Citibank, N.A. ("Citibank") serves as
Investment Adviser. The Landmark Funds Broker-Dealer Services, Inc. ("LFBDS")
acts as the Fund's Administrator and Distributor. Citibank also serves as
Sub-Administrator and makes Fund shares available to customers as Shareholder
Servicing Agent.
The Trust seeks to achieve the Fund's investment objective of long-term growth
of capital by investing all of its investable assets in the Portfolio, an
open-end, diversified management investment company having the same investment
objective and policies and substantially the same investment restrictions as the
Fund. The value of such investment reflects the Fund's proportionate interest
(approximately 60.2% at June 30, 1997) in the net assets of the Portfolio.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
The financial statements of the Portfolio, including the portfolio of
investments, are contained elsewhere in this report and should be read in
conjunction with the Fund's financial statements.
The Fund has approval to issue Class A and Class B shares as described more
fully in the Fund's prospectus. No Class B shares have yet to be offered,
therefore the information presented in these financial statements relates solely
to Class A shares.
The following significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund
are as follows:
A. INVESTMENT VALUATIONS -- Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is
discussed in Note 1A of the Portfolio's Notes to Financial Statements which are
included elsewhere in this report.
B. ACCOUNTING FOR INVESTMENTS -- The Fund earns income, net of Portfolio
expenses, daily based on its investment in the Portfolio. All the net investment
income, realized and unrealized gain or loss of the Portfolio is allocated pro
rata, based on respective ownership interests, among the Fund and the other
investors in the Portfolio at the time of such determination.
C. FEDERAL TAXES -- The Fund's policy is to comply with the provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code available to regulated investment companies and to
distribute to shareholders all of its taxable income, including any net realized
gain on investment transactions.
Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is required.
D. EXPENSES -- The Fund bears all costs of its operations other than expenses
specifically assumed by Citibank and LFBDS. Expenses incurred by the Trust with
respect to any two or more funds or series are allocated in proportion to the
average net assets of each fund, except when allocations of direct expenses to
each fund can otherwise be made fairly. Expenses directly attributable to a fund
are charged to that fund. The Fund's share of the Portfolio's expenses are
charged against and reduce the amount of the Fund's investment in the Portfolio.
E. DISTRIBUTIONS -- Distributions to shareholders are recorded on ex-dividend
date. The amount and character of income and net realized gains to be
distributed are determined in accordance with income tax rules and regulations,
which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These
differences are attributable to permanent book and tax accounting differences.
Reclassifications are made to the Fund's capital accounts to reflect income and
net realized gains available for distribution (or available capital loss
carryovers) under income tax rules and regulations. For the year ended December
31, 1996, the Fund reclassified $27,437 from undistributed net investment
income, $95,646 from accumulated loss on investments and $123,083 to
paid-in-capital.
(2) ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES PLAN
The Fund has adopted an Administrative Services Plan (the "Administrative
Services Plan") which provides that the Fund may obtain the services of an
Administrator, and one or more Shareholder Servicing Agents and other Servicing
Agents, and may enter into agreements providing for the payment of fees for such
services. Under the Administrative Services Plan, the aggregate of the fee paid
to the Administrator by the Fund, the fees paid to the Shareholder Servicing
Agents by the Fund and the Basic Distribution Fee paid by the fund to the
Distributor under the distribution Plan may not exceed 0.65% of the Fund's
average daily net assets on an annualized basis for the Fund's then-current
fiscal year.
A. ADMINISTRATIVE FEES -- Under the terms of an Administrative Services
Agreement, the administrative services fees paid to the Administrator, as
compensation for overall administrative services, including general office
facilities, may not exceed an annual rate of 0.30% of the Fund's average daily
net assets. The Administrative fees amounted to $43,976 for the six months ended
June 30, 1997. Citibank acts as Sub-Administrator and performs such duties and
receives such compensation from LFBDS as from time to time is agreed to by LFBDS
and Citibank. The Fund pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any
officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive
remuneration for their services to the Fund from the Administrator or its
affiliates. Certain officers and a Trustee of the Fund are officers and
directors of the Administrator or its affiliates.
B. SHAREHOLDER SERVICING AGENTS' FEES -- The Fund has entered into shareholder
servicing agreements with each Shareholder Servicing Agent pursuant to which the
Shareholder Servicing Agent acts as an agent for its customers and provides
other related services. For their services, each Shareholder Servicing Agent
receives fees from the Fund, which may be paid periodically, which may not
exceed, on an annualized basis, an amount equal to 0.25% of the average daily
net assets of the Fund represented by shares owned during the period for which
payment is being made by investors for whom such Shareholder Servicing Agent
maintains a servicing relationship. The Shareholder Servicing Agents' fees,
computed at an annual rate of 0.25%, amounted to $36,647 for the six months
ended June 30, 1997.
(3) DISTRIBUTION FEES
The Trust has adopted a Plan of Distribution pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, in which the Fund compensates the
Distributor at an annual rate not to exceed 0.10% of the Fund's average daily
net assets for distribution of the Fund's shares. The Distributor may also
receive an additional fee from the Fund at an annual rate not to exceed 0.05% of
the Fund's average daily net assets in anticipation of, or as reimbursement for,
advertising expenses incurred by the Distributor in connection with the sale of
shares of the Fund. No payment of such additional fee has been made during the
period. The Distribution fees amounted to $14,659 for the six months ended June
30, 1997.
(4) INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
Increase and decrease in the Fund's investment in the Portfolio for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 aggregated $4,026,192 and $10,985,156, respectively.
(5) SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST
The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of
full and fractional Shares of Beneficial Interest (par value $0.00001).
Transactions in shares of beneficial interest were as follows:

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

======= =========
(6) EXPENSE FEES
LFBDS has entered into an expense agreement with the Fund. LFBDS had agreed to
pay all of the ordinary operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage
commissions, litigation costs or other extraordinary costs or expenses) of the
Fund, other than fees paid under the Administrative Services Agreement,
Distribution Agreement and Shareholder Servicing Agreements and other than
amortization of expenses related to the organization of the Fund. The Agreement
may be terminated by either party upon not less than 30 days nor more than 60
days written notice.
The Fund has agreed to pay to LFBDS an expense fee, on an annual basis, accrued
daily and paid monthly; provided, however, that such fee shall not exceed the
amount such that immediately after any such payment the aggregate ordinary
operating expenses of the Fund, including expenses allocated from the Portfolio
less expenses waived by the Administrator, would on an annual basis exceed an
agreed upon rate, currently 1.75% of average daily net assets.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
International Equity Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), a separate series of The
Premium Portfolios (the "Portfolio Trust"), is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, open-end management
investment company which was organized as a trust under the laws of the State of
New York. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue beneficial
interests in the Portfolio. The Investment Adviser of the Portfolio is Citibank
N.A. ("Citibank"). Signature Financial Group (Grand Cayman), Ltd. ("SFG") acts
as the Portfolio's Administrator. The preparation of financial statements in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from
those estimates. The following significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Portfolio are as follows
A. INVESTMENT SECURITY VALUATIONS -- Equity securities in the portfolio are
valued at the last sale price on the exchange on which they are primarily
traded, or at the quoted bid price for securities in which there were no sales
during the day, or for unlisted securities not reported on the NASDAQ system.
Securities listed on a foreign exchange are valued at the last quoted sale price
available. Bonds and other fixed income securities (other than short-term
obligations maturing in sixty days or less) in the portfolio are valued on the
basis of valuations furnished by a pricing service approved by the Board of
Trustees, the use of which has been approved by the Trustees. In making such
valuations, the pricing service utilizes both dealer-supplied valuations and
electronic data processing techniques which take into account appropriate
factors such as institutional-size trading in similar groups of securities,
yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics
and other market data, without exclusive reliance upon quoted prices or
exchanges or over-the-counter prices. Short-term obligations maturing in sixty
days or less, are valued at amortized cost, which constitutes fair value as
determined by the Trustees. Portfolio securities for which there are no such
quotations or valuations are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by
or at the direction of the Trustees. Trading in securities on most foreign
exchanges and over-the-counter markets is normally completed before the close of
the New York Stock Exchange and may also take place on days which the New York
Stock Exchange is closed. If events materially affecting the value of foreign
securities occur between the time when the exchange on which they are traded
closes and the time of fund valuation, such securities will be valued at fair
value in accordance with procedures established by and under the general
supervision of the Trustees.
B. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION -- The accounting records of the Portfolio are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S.
dollars at the current rate of exchange to determine the value of investments,
assets and liabilities. Purchases and sales of securities, and income and
expenses are translated at the prevailing rate of exchange on the respective
dates of such transactions. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the
results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on
investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of
securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and
unrealized gain or loss from investments. Translation of foreign currency
includes net exchange gains and losses, disposition of foreign currency and the
difference between the amount of investment income, expenses and foreign taxes
withheld recorded and the actual amount received or paid.
C. FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE CONTRACTS -- The Portfolio may enter into
forward foreign currency exchange contracts ("contracts") in connection with
planned purchases or sales of securities or to hedge the U.S. dollar value of
portfolio securities denominated in a particular currency. The Portfolio could
be exposed to risks if the counter-parties to the contracts are unable to meet
the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of a
foreign currency relative to the U.S. Dollar. Forward foreign currency exchange
contracts are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying currency and
any gains or losses are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized
gains or losses until the contract settlement date.
D. ACCOUNTING FOR INVESTMENTS -- Securities transactions are accounted for on
the trade date. Realized gains and losses on security transactions are
determined on the identified cost method. Dividend income and other
distributions from portfolio securities are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Dividend income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such
taxes is not assured. Interest income is accrued daily.
E. U.S. FEDERAL INCOME AND OTHER TAXES -- The Portfolio is considered a
partnership under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision for
federal income taxes is necessary. The Portfolio may be subject to taxes imposed
by countries in which it invests. Such taxes are generally based on income
and/or capital gains earned or repatriated. Taxes are accrued and applied to net
investment income and net realized gains as such income and/or gains are earned.
F. EXPENSES -- The Portfolio bears all costs of its operations other than
expenses specifically assumed by Citibank and SFG. Expenses incurred by the
Portfolio Trust with respect to any two or more portfolios or series are
allocated in proportion to the average net assets of each portfolio, except when
allocations of direct expenses to each portfolio can otherwise be made fairly.
Expenses directly attributable to a portfolio are charged to that portfolio.
G. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- It is the policy of the Portfolio to require the
custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal
Reserve Book Entry System or to have segregated within the custodian bank's
vault, all securities held as collateral in support of repurchase agreements.
Additionally, procedures have been established by the Portfolio to monitor, on a
daily basis, the market value of the repurchase agreement's underlying
investments to ensure the existence of a proper level of collateral.
(2) INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES
The investment advisory fees paid to Citibank, as compensation for overall
investment management services, amounted to $228,303, of which $2,500 was
voluntarily waived, for the six months ended June 30, 1997. The investment
advisory fees are computed at the annual rate of 1.00% of the Portfolio's
average daily net assets.
(3) ADMINISTRATIVE FEES
Under the terms of an Administrative Services Agreement, the administrative
services fees paid to the Administrator, as compensation for overall
administrative services including general office facilities, is computed at an
annual rate of 0.05% of the Portfolio's average daily net assets. The
administrative fees amounted to $11,415 all of which was voluntarily waived, for
the six months ended June 30, 1997. The Portfolio pays no compensation directly
to any Trustee or any officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of
whom receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio from the
Administrator or its affiliates. Certain officers and a Trustee of the Portfolio
are officers and directors of the Administrator or its affiliates.
(4) PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS
For the six months ended June 30, 1997, purchases and sales of investment
securities, other than short-term investments, aggre-gated $25,742,675 and
$30,562,895, respectively.
(5) FEDERAL INCOME TAX BASIS
OF INVESTMENTS
The cost and unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) in value of the investment
securities owned at June 30, 1997 as computed on a federal income tax basis, are
as follows:
Aggregate cost ..................... $41,513,503
===========
Gross unrealized appreciation ...... $ 6,090,246
Gross unrealized depreciation ...... (992,999)
-----------
Net unrealized appreciation ........ $ 5,097,247
===========
(6) EXPENSE FEES
SFG has entered into an expense agreement with the Portfolio. SFG has agreed to
pay all of the ordinary operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage
commissions, litigation costs or other extraordinary costs or expenses) of the
Portfolio, other than fees paid under the Advisory Agreement, and Administrative
Services Agreement. The Agreement may be terminated by either party upon not
less than 30 days nor more than 60 days written notice.
The Portfolio has agreed to pay SFG an expense fee, on an annual basis, accrued
daily and paid monthly; provided, however, that such fee shall not exceed the
amount such that immediately after any such payment the aggregate expenses of
the Portfolio less expenses waived by the Administrator would on an annual basis
exceed an agreed upon rate, which as of July 1, 1996 is 1.00% of average daily
net assets.
(7) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Portfolio may trade financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the
normal course of its investing activities and to assist in managing exposure to
market risks such as interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. These
financial instruments include forward foreign currency exchange contracts. The
notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investment
the Portfolio has in particular classes of financial instruments and does not
necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement
of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when related
and offsetting transactions are considered.
(8) LINE OF CREDIT
The Portfolio, along with the other Landmark Funds, entered into an ongoing
agreement with a bank which allows the Landmark Funds collectively to borrow up
to $60 million for temporary or emergency purposes. Interest on the borrowings,
if any, is charged to the specific fund executing the borrowing at the base rate
of the bank. In addition, the $15 million committed portion of the line of
credit requires a quarterly payment of a commitment fee based on the average
daily unused portion of the line of credit. For the six months ended June 30,
1997, the commitment fee allocated to the Portfolio was $102. Since the line of
credit was established, there have been no borrowings.

A LETTER TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Shareholder:
The first half of 1997 was a difficult time for the emerging markets of
Asia. Double-digit declines in some of the region's stock markets were caused by
concerns regarding local economic conditions, real estate values and banking
policies. Despite these problems, we are pleased that the Landmark Emerging
Asian Markets Equity Fund protected shareholders from the brunt of the markets'
declines. We expect the Fund's defensive posture to help shareholders weather
this storm, and we are confident that the region's attractive fundamentals --
which remain in place -- will lead to a resumption of positive long-term market
trends within this rapidly growing part of the world.
The Landmark Funds' investment adviser, Citibank, N.A., managed the
Emerging Asian Markets Equity Fund to achieve its investment objective:
long-term capital growth. Through its investment in the Emerging Asian Markets
Equity Portfolio, the Fund invests primarily in equity securities of companies
in Asian countries with emerging markets and developing economies, including the
Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand. The Portfolio may also invest in
the People's Republic of China, India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka.
This report reviews the Portfolio's investment activities and performance
for the six-month period ended June 30, 1997, and provides a summary of
Citibank's perspective on and outlook for emerging Asian financial markets. On
behalf of the Board of Trustees of the Landmark Funds, I want to thank you for
your confidence and participation.
/s/ Philip Coolidge

MARKET ENVIRONMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Many emerging Asian stock markets experienced a severe downturn during the
first six months of 1997. The Thai market was hardest hit, losing about 40% of
its value in response to a collapse in its real estate market and banking
system. With office vacancy rates approaching 30% and amid concerns that
economic growth may slow, Thailand's real estate investors appear to have
panicked, throwing the entire economy into turmoil. Plunging real estate values
hurt the banking system that financed commercial and residential development.
These problems were exacerbated by a restrictive monetary policy designed to
support the value of the Thai baht relative to other currencies.
Stock markets in Malaysia and the Philippines declined about 13% and 11%,
respectively, largely in sympathy with Thailand's predicament. In Malaysia,
imposition of stricter loan restrictions raised concerns of a slow-down of
corporate earnings growth, contributing to the decline. In the Philippines, the
stock markets declined sharply despite reporting the highest earnings growth
within the emerging Asian markets.
Indonesia represented the one bright spot in Southeast Asia. Robust
economic growth and uneventful national elections boosted investor confidence,

PORTFOLIO MANAGER
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SHERN LIANG TAN
Vice President
Mr. Tan is a Portfolio Manager for the Citibank Private Bank's Singapore
investment unit. His responsibilities include managing both Asian equity mutual
funds and portfolios for high net worth investors. His comprehensive expertise
includes the emerging as well as developed markets of Asia.
Mr. Tan has six years' experience managing investments in Asian equities. He
specializes in industrialized and emerging opportunities in Hong Kong, Thailand,
the Philippines, and New Zealand. He also covers the equity markets in
Australia, Singapore and Indonesia.
Mr. Tan graduated with Distinction from the University of Michigan, Ann
Arbor, and is a Certified Financial Analyst.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
QUOTES FROM THE PORTFOLIO MANAGER
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Our large cash position and avoidance of the Thai market helped the Portfolio
outperform its benchmark significantly."
"Our defensive strategy includes avoiding economically sensitive companies in
favor of companies expected to benefit directly from the growth of industry and
an emerging middle class."
"The recent setbacks brought emerging Asian market valuations back to their
pre-1993 levels, creating attractive opportunities for when the time is right."
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE PORTFOLIO MANAGER RESPONDS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Portfolio's defensive positioning helped us protect shareholders from
the bulk of the markets' declines. We reduced our exposure to Thai companies
early in the year when real-estate-related problems began to develop. As of the
end of the period, only 4% of the Portfolio was invested in Thai companies. We
also reduced our exposure to Malaysia. These adjustments enabled us to raise the
cash component of the Portfolio to around 15%, a position that was key in our
attempt to safeguard our investors' assets.
In addition, we increased our exposure to companies in the Philippines and
Indonesia because of their attractive fundamentals and persistent growth. In our
view, the forces affecting Thailand are mostly limited to that nation's economy
and banking system and are not likely to cause similar problems in neighboring
markets. Nonetheless, because investor psychology often has more to do with
short-term stock price movements than economic fundamentals, we have adopted a
defensive stance even in these attractive markets. For example, we have avoided
economically sensitive investments such as property-related and banking stocks,
preferring instead to own companies that we expect to benefit most from
long-term trends such as the region's development as a significant global
business competitor. Accordingly, the Portfolio contains Philippine and
Indonesian stocks of growing companies primarily in the consumer, utility and
infrastructure-related industries.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STRATEGY AND OUTLOOK
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We are very cautious regarding the prospects for Thailand's stock market
over the next six months. Despite the magnitude of the market's decline, we
believe that risks will continue to outweigh opportunities until Thailand can
resolve its problems. Once those issues are addressed, we expect Thai stocks to
represent attractive values. Until then, we intend to stay on the sidelines in
Thailand.
We are more optimistic about the rest of the region. Malaysia and the
Philippines should begin to rebound during the second half of the year, and we
expect Indonesia to add to its year-to-date gains. In our opinion, the
Philippine market was oversold during the first half of the year and should
rebound during the second half. Indonesia should respond favorably to strong
corporate earnings and the development of a local mutual fund industry which is
expected to provide greater liquidity for the markets.

Landmark Emerging Asian Markets Equity Fund
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Landmark Emerging Asian Markets Equity Fund (the "Fund") is a separate
diversified series of Landmark International Funds (the "Trust"), a
Massachusetts business trust. The Trust is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, open-end, management
investment company. The Fund invests all of its investable assets in Emerging
Asian Markets Equity Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), a management investment
company for which Citibank, N.A. ("Citibank") serves as Investment Adviser. The
Landmark Funds Broker-Dealer Services, Inc. ("LFBDS") acts as the Fund's
Administrator and Distributor. Citibank also serves as Sub-Administrator and
makes Fund shares available to customers as Shareholder Servicing Agent.
The Trust seeks to achieve the Fund's investment objective of long-term growth
of capital by investing all of its investable assets in the Portfolio, an
open-end, diversified management investment company having the same investment
objective and policies and substantially the same investment restrictions as the
Fund. The value of such investment reflects the Fund's proportionate interest
(approximately 81.7% at June 30, 1997) in the net assets of the Portfolio.
The financial statements of the Portfolio, including the portfolio of
investments, are contained elsewhere in this report and should be read in
conjunction with the Fund's financial statements.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The Fund has approval to issue Class A and Class B shares as described more
fully in the Fund's prospectus. No Class B shares have yet to be offered,
therefore the information presented in these financial statements relates solely
to Class A shares.
The following significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund
are as follows:
A. INVESTMENT VALUATIONS -- Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is
discussed in Note 1A of the Portfolio's Notes to Financial Statements which are
included elsewhere in this report.
B. ACCOUNTING FOR INVESTMENTS -- The Fund earns income, net of Portfolio
expenses, daily based on its investment in the Portfolio. All the net investment
income, realized and unrealized gain or loss of the Portfolio is allocated pro
rata, based on respective ownership interests, among the Fund and the other
investors in the Portfolio at the time of such determination.
C. FEDERAL TAXES -- The Fund's policy is to comply with the provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code available to regulated investment companies and to
distribute to shareholders all of its taxable income, including any net realized
gain on investment transactions. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or
excise tax is required. At December 31, 1996, the Fund, for federal income tax
purposes, had a capital loss carryover of $660,368 which will expire December
31, 2004. Such capital loss carryover will reduce the Fund's taxable income
arising from future net realized gain on investment transactions, if any, to the
extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the amount
of the distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to
relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income or excise tax.
D. EXPENSES -- The Fund bears all costs of its operations other than expenses
specifically assumed by Citibank and LFBDS. Expenses incurred by the Trust with
respect to any two or more funds or series are allocated in proportion to the
average net assets of each fund, except when allocations of direct expenses to
each fund can otherwise be made fairly. Expenses directly attributable to a fund
are charged to that fund. The Fund's share of the Portfolio's expenses are
charged against and reduce the amount of the Fund's investment in the Portfolio.
E. DISTRIBUTIONS -- Distributions to shareholders are recorded on ex-dividend
date. The amount and character of income and net realized gains to be
distributed are determined in accordance with income tax rules and regulations,
which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These
differences are attributable to permanent book and tax accounting differences.
Reclassifications are made to the Fund's capital accounts to reflect income and
net realized gains available for distribution (or available capital loss
carryovers) under income tax rules and regulations. For the year ended December
31, 1996, the Fund reclassified $21,687 from undistributed net investment loss,
$30,198 to accumulated net realized loss of investments and $8,511 from
paid-in-capital.
(2) ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES PLAN
The Fund has adopted an Administrative Services Plan (the "Administrative
Services Plan") which provides that the Fund may obtain the services of an
Administrator, and one or more Shareholder Servicing Agents and other Servicing
Agents, and may enter into agreements providing for the payment of fees for such
services. Under the Administrative Services Plan, the aggregate of the fees paid
to the Administrator by the Fund, the fees paid to the Shareholder Servicing
Agents by the Fund and the Basic Distribution Fee paid by the fund to the
Distributor under the Distribution Plan may not exceed 0.65% of the Fund's
average daily net assets on an annualized basis for the Fund's then-current
fiscal year.
A. ADMINISTRATIVE FEES -- Under the terms of an Administrative Services
Agreement, the administrative services fees paid to the Administrator, as
compensation for overall administrative services, including general office
facilities, may not exceed an annual rate of 0.30% of the Fund's average daily
net assets. The Administrative fees amounted to $14,593, for the six months
ended June 30, 1997. Citibank acts as Sub-Administrator and performs such duties
and receives such compensation from LFBDS as from time to time is agreed to by
LFBDS and Citibank. The Fund pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any
officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive
remuneration for their services to the Fund from the Administrator or its
affiliates. Certain officers and a Trustee of the Fund are officers and
directors of the Administrator or its affiliates.
B. SHAREHOLDER SERVICING AGENTS' FEES -- The Fund has entered into shareholder
servicing agreements with each Shareholder Servicing Agent pursuant to which the
Shareholder Servicing Agent acts as an agent for its customers and provides
other related services. For their services, each Shareholder Servicing Agent
receives fees from the Fund, which may be paid periodically, which may not
exceed, on an annualized basis, an amount equal to 0.25% of the average daily
net assets of the Fund represented by shares owned during the period for which
payment is being made by investors for whom such Shareholder Servicing Agent
maintains a servicing relationship. The Shareholder Servicing Agents' fees,
computed at an annual rate of 0.25%, amounted to $12,161, for the six months
ended June 30, 1997.
(3) DISTRIBUTION FEES
The Trust has adopted a Plan of Distribution pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, in which the Fund compensates the
Distributor at an annual rate not to exceed 0.10% of the Fund's average daily
net assets for distribution of the Fund's shares. The Distribution fees amounted
to $4,864, for the six months ended June 30, 1997. The Distributor may also
receive an additional fee from the Fund at an annual rate not to exceed 0.05% of
the Fund's average daily net assets in anticipation of, or as reimbursement for,
advertising expenses incurred by the Distributor in connection with the sale of
shares of the Fund. No payment of such additional fee has been made during the
period.
(4) INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
Increase and decrease in the Fund's investment in the Portfolio for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 aggregated $133,837 and $998,247, respectively.
<PAGE>
(5) SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST
The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of
full and fractional Shares of Beneficial Interest (par value $0.00001).
Transactions in shares of beneficial interest were as follows:

(6) EXPENSE FEES
LFBDS has entered into an expense agreement with the Fund. LFBDS had agreed to
pay all of the ordinary operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage
commissions, litigation costs or other extraordinary costs or expenses) of the
Fund, other than fees paid under the Administrative Services Agreement,
Distribution Agreement and Shareholder Servicing Agreements and other than
amortization of expenses related to the organization of the Fund. The Agreement
may be terminated by either party upon not less than 30 days nor more than 60
days written notice
The Fund has agreed to pay to LFBDS an expense fee, commencing July 1, 1996, on
an annual basis, accrued daily and paid monthly; provided, however, that such
fee shall not exceed the amount such that immediately after any such payment the
aggregate ordinary operating expenses of the Fund, including expenses allocated
from the Portfolio less expenses waived by the Administrator and Distributor
would, on an annual basis exceed an agreed upon rate, currently 1.85% of average
daily net assets.

Emerging Asian Markets Equity Portfolio
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Emerging Asian Equity Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), a separate series of The
Premium Portfolios (the "Portfolio Trust"), is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, open-end management
investment company which was organized as a trust under the laws of the State of
New York. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue beneficial
interests in the Portfolio. The Investment Adviser of the Portfolio is Citibank
N.A. ("Citibank"). Signature Financial Group (Grand Cayman), Ltd. ("SFG") acts
as the Fund's Administrator.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The following significant accounting policies consistently followed by the
Portfolio are as follows:
A. INVESTMENT SECURITY VALUATIONS -- Equity securities in the portfolio are
valued at the last sale price on the exchange on which they are primarily
traded, or at the quoted bid price for securities in which there were no sales
during the day, or for unlisted securities not reported on the NASDAQ system.
Securities listed on a foreign exchange are valued at the last quoted sale price
available. Bonds and other fixed income securities (other than short-term
obligations maturing in sixty days or less) in the portfolio are valued on the
basis of valuations furnished by a pricing service, the use of which has been
approved by the Trustees. In making such valuations, the pricing service
utilizes both dealer-supplied valuations and electronic data processing
techniques which take into account appropriate factors such as
institutional-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality,
coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other market
data, without exclusive reliance upon quoted prices or exchanges or
over-the-counter prices, since such valuations and techniques are believed to
reflect more accurately the fair value of such securities. Short-term
obligations maturing in sixty days or less, are valued at amortized cost, which
constitutes fair value as determined by the Trustees. Portfolio securities for
which there are no such quotations or valuations are valued at fair value as
determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees. Trading in
securities on most foreign exchanges and over-the-counter markets is normally
completed before the close of the New York Stock Exchange and may also take
place on days which the New York Stock Exchange is closed. If events materially
affecting the value of foreign securities occur between the time when the
exchange on which they are traded closes and the time of fund valuation, such
securities will be valued at fair value in accordance with procedures
established by and under the general supervision of the Trustees.
B. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION -- The accounting records of the Portfolio are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S.
dollars at the current rate of exchange to determine the value of investments,
assets and liabilities. Purchases and sales of securities, and income and
expenses are translated at the prevailing rate of exchange on the respective
dates of such transactions. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the
results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on
investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of
securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and
unrealized gain or loss from investments. Translation of foreign currency
includes net exchange gains and losses, disposition of foreign currency and the
difference between the amount of investment income and foreign taxes withheld
recorded and the actual amount received or paid.
C. FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE CONTRACTS -- The Portfolio may enter into
forward foreign currency exchange contracts ("contracts") in connection with
planned purchases or sales of securities or to hedge the U.S. dollar value of
portfolio securities denominated in a particular currency. The Portfolio could
be exposed to risks if the counter-parties to the contracts are unable to meet
the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of a
foreign currency relative to the U.S. Dollar. Forward foreign currency exchange
contracts are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying currency and
any gains or losses are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized
gains or losses until the contract settlement date.
D. ACCOUNTING FOR INVESTMENTS -- Securities transactions are accounted for on
the trade date. Realized gains and losses on security transactions are
determined on the identified cost method. Dividend income and other
distributions from portfolio securities are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Dividend income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such
taxes is not assured. Interest income is accrued daily.
E. U.S. FEDERAL INCOME AND OTHER TAXES -- The Portfolio is considered a
partnership under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision for
federal income taxes is necessary. The Portfolio may be subject to taxes imposed
by countries in which it invests. Such taxes are generally based on income
and/or capital gains earned or repatriated. Taxes are accrued and applied to net
investment income and net realized gains as such income and/or gains are earned.
F. EXPENSES -- The Portfolio bears all costs of its operations other than
expenses specifically assumed by Citibank and SFG. Expenses incurred by the
Portfolio Trust with respect to any two or more portfolios or series are
allocated in proportion to the average net assets of each portfolio, except when
allocations of direct expenses to each portfolio can otherwise be made fairly.
Expenses directly attributable to a portfolio are charged to that portfolio.
G. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- It is the policy of the Portfolio to require the
custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal
Reserve Book Entry System or to have segregated within the custodian bank's
vault, all securities held as collateral in support of repurchase agreements.
Additionally, procedures have been established by the Portfolio to monitor, on a
daily basis, the market value of the repurchase agreement's underlying
investments to ensure the existence of a proper level of collateral.
(2) INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES
The investment advisory fees paid to Citibank, as compensation for overall
investment management services, amounted to $54,760, of which $2,500 was
voluntarily waived, for the six months ended June 30, 1997. The investment
advisory fees are computed at the annual rate of 1.00% of the Portfolio's
average daily net assets.
(3) ADMINISTRATIVE FEES
Under the terms of an Administrative Services Agreement, the administrative
services fees paid to the Administrator, as compensation for overall
administrative services including general office facilities, is computed at an
annual rate of 0.05% of the Portfolio's average daily net assets. The
administrative fees amounted to $2,738, all of which was voluntarily waived, for
the six months ended June 30, 1997. The Portfolio pays no compensation directly
to any Trustee or any officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of
whom receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio from the
Administrator or its affiliates. Certain officers and a Trustee of the Portfolio
are officers and directors of the Administrator or its affiliates.
(4) PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS
For the six months ended June 30, 1997, purchases and sales of investment
securities, other than short-term investments, aggre-gated $2,549,682 and
$5,263,624, respectively.
(5) FEDERAL INCOME TAX BASIS OF INVESTMENTS
The cost and unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) in value of the investment
securities owned at June 30, 1997, as computed on a federal income tax basis,
are as follows:
Aggregate cost ..................... $10,275,266
===========
Gross unrealized appreciation ...... $ 1,005,300
Gross unrealized depreciation ...... (593,366)
-----------
Net unrealized appreciation ........ $ 411,934
===========
(6) EXPENSE FEES
SFG has entered into an expense agreement with the Portfolio. SFG has agreed to
pay all of the ordinary operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage
commissions, litigation costs or other extraordinary costs or expenses) of the
Portfolio, other than fees paid under the Advisory Agreement, and Administrative
Services Agreement. The Agreement may be terminated by either party upon not
less than 30 days nor more than 60 days written notice.
The Portfolio has agreed to pay SFG an expense fee, on an annual basis, accrued
daily and paid monthly; provided, however, that such fee shall not exceed the
amount such that immediately after any such payment the aggregate expenses of
the Portfolio less expenses waived by the Administrator would on an annual basis
exceed an agreed upon rate, currently 1.00% of average daily net assets.
(7) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Portfolio may trade financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the
normal course of its investing activities and to assist in managing exposure to
market risks such as interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. These
financial instruments include forward foreign currency exchange contracts.
The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the
investment the Portfolio has in particular classes of financial instruments and
does not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The
measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only
when related and offsetting transactions are considered.
(8) LINE OF CREDIT
The Portfolio, along with the other Landmark Funds, entered into an ongoing
agreement with a bank which allows the Landmark Funds collectively to borrow up
to $60 million for temporary or emergency purposes. Interest on the borrowings,
if any, is charged to the specific fund executing the borrowing at the base rate
of the bank. In addition, the $15 million committed portion of the line of
credit requires a quarterly payment of a commitment fee based on the average
daily unused portion of the line of credit for the six months ended June 30,
1997 the commitment fee allocated to the Portfolio was $24. Since the line of
credit was established, there have been no borrowings.
