LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
June 26, 1998
Dear Shareholder,
The recent announcement that the federal government will generate a
budget surplus this year for the first time since 1969 gives us pause to reflect
on how far the nation's finances have come during the past 15 years. Many
Americans can remember the 1970s, when a painful outbreak of inflation
undermined investment returns and lowered living standards. Just a few years
ago, the federal budget was still nearly $300 billion in the red and the U.S.
dollar was weak.
Today, economic growth is robust, inflation is virtually nonexistent,
the job market is healthy, and the dollar is rising around the world. Against
this backdrop, stock and bond prices have appreciated considerably since the
nation's inflationary fever began to subside more than a decade ago. From a
long-term perspective, however, history tells us that the good times will not
last forever.
At Van Kampen American Capital, we are pleased to provide investors
with products and tools for all economic climates. As always, we remain vigilant
in identifying changes in the investment environment that might affect our fund
shareholders. In the meantime, we encourage you to talk to your adviser about
how diversification can help your portfolio's long-term performance.
ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
It was the best of times and the worst of times for the global economy.
The United States and Europe each enjoyed strong growth with virtually no
inflation. In Asia, however, many economies experienced their first brush with
recession in more than a decade while Japan remained mired in a deep and
prolonged slump.
The American economy cruised into the eighth year of a vigorous
expansion with no end in sight. Economic growth accelerated during the later
stages of the reporting period, with the nationis total output of goods and
services growing at a 4.2 percent annualized rate in the first quarter of 1998.
Meanwhile, unemployment fell to a 28-year low of 4.3 percent in April. Despite
robust growth and low unemployment, inflation remained benign. During the 12
months through May, consumer prices rose by only 1.7 percent. A rising dollar,
tepid demand for U.S. goods in Asia, and falling commodity prices offset the
inflationary impact of the tight labor market.
Europe also experienced solid growth with low inflation. However,
unemployment in the region remains near double digit rates, a legacy of Europeis
traditionally high cost of doing business. In May, the European Monetary Union
(EMU) named its inaugural 11 nations. The near certainty of a common currency
(the euro) led to a wave of mergers and acquisitions, particularly in the
pharmaceutical and financial industries.
As the reporting period ended, several Asian economies were struggling
in the aftermath of last yearis currency crisis. South Korea, Hong Kong, and
Malaysia each showed negative economic growth during the first quarter. With
inflation reaching nearly 50 percent, social and political unrest broke out in
Indonesia, leading to the resignation of President Suharto. Rising unemployment
in South Korea resulted in nationwide strikes. Complicating the regionis
problems was the inability of Japan to pull out of a nearly decade-long economic
slump. Without help from Japanese consumers, already-struggling Asian economies
lose an important export market.

MARKET OVERVIEW
Reflecting the wide disparity in global economic conditions, stocks in
the United States and Europe soared, while most Asian markets suffered deep
losses. In the 12 months through May, the Wilshire 5000 Index of U.S. stocks
increased 28.6 percent, while the Dow Jones Europe/Africa Index gained 38.2
percent. During the same period, the Dow Jones Asia/Pacific Index decreased 34.1
percent in U.S. dollar terms, from 108.33 on May 31, 1997 to 74.24 on May 31,
1998.
European equity markets were led by Portugal and Italy, increasing 84.5
percent and 82.3 percent, respectively, where interest rates fell in
anticipation of monetary union. Strength in Europe was broad based, however,
with markets in Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Spain,
Switzerland, and the Netherlands each gaining more than 40 percent in dollar
terms.
It was a far different story in Asia, where Indonesia, Malaysia, South
Korea, and Thailand each decreased by more than 60 percent during the reporting
period. Singapore and the Philippines also lost about 50 percent each, while the
huge Hong Kong market fell nearly 44 percent in dollar terms, from $324.98 on
May 31, 1997 to $182.12 on May 31, 1998. Most of the decline in Asian markets
occurred last fall, as currencies plunged in the wake of the devaluation of the
Thai baht. But after the market mounted brief rallies early in 1998, the
widespread marking down of economic growth and earnings projections, coupled
with social and political unrest, caused a collapse of investor confidence in
the region. As the reporting period ended, many Asian markets were trading near
12-month lows.
Equity markets in Latin America also were negatively affected by
fallout from Asia. The Dow Jones Latin America Index decreased 17 percent in
dollar terms, from $218.30 on May 31, 1997 to $181.00 on May 31, 1998. Investors
worried about economic growth rates and currency values in the region, in part
because Latin American companies export industrial commodities and energy
products to Asia. Also, the relatively high interest rates required to stabilize
Latin American currencies could erode corporate profits.
OUTLOOK
We remain optimistic about European markets, based on the regionis
accelerating growth rate and the introduction of a common currency next year.
Also, more European investors are leaving the sanctuary of money market funds in
favor of equities as interest rates decline. We are particularly upbeat about
stocks in Italy and Spain, as well as the European banking sector in general.
Our outlook for Asia is guarded. A quick fix to the financial crisis
that shook the region last year is not likely to be forthcoming. Instead, a
series of meaningful reforms encompassing both the public and private sectors
must be undertaken before a lasting recovery can begin. As the reporting period
ended, the reforms necessary to set Asian economies on a healthier path had yet
to be accomplished.
In our opinion, economic growth in the United States is likely to slow
in coming months as the impact of the Asian crisis becomes more evident. The
deflationary effects of Asia will also serve to limit the ability of domestic
companies to raise prices. Coupled with rising wages, this loss of pricing power
could pinch corporate profit margins in coming months. With equities already
trading at record valuations, we are cautious about the ability of U.S.
stocks to produce a significant rally from current levels.
Additional details about your Fund, including a question-and-answer
section with your portfolio management team, are provided in this report. As
always, we are pleased to have the opportunity to serve you and your family
through our diverse selection of quality investments.

PUTTING YOUR FUND'S PERFORMANCE IN PERSPECTIVE
As you evaluate your progress toward achieving your financial goals, it is
important to track your investment portfolio's performance at regular intervals.
A good starting point is a comparison of your investment holdings to an
applicable benchmark, such as a broad-based market index. Such a comparison can:
- Illustrate the general market environment in which your investments
are being managed
- Reflect the impact of favorable market trends or difficult market
conditions
- Help you evaluate the extent to which your Fund's management team
has responded to the opportunities and challenges presented to them
over the period measured
For these reasons, you may find it helpful to review the chart below,
which compares your Fund's performance to that of the Morgan Stanley Capital
International (MSCI) World Index + Dividends over time. As a broad-based
statistical composite, this index does not reflect any commissions that would be
incurred by an investor purchasing the securities it represents. Similarly, its
performance does not reflect any sales charges or other costs which would be
applicable to an actively managed portfolio, such as that of the Fund.

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT REVIEW
VAN KAMPEN AMERICAN CAPITAL GLOBAL EQUITY FUND
We recently spoke with the management team of the Van Kampen American Capital
Global Equity Fund about the key events and economic forces that shaped the
markets during the past twelve months. The Fund is managed by portfolio managers
Barton M. Biggs and Ann D. Thivierge with support from Madhav Dhar and Francine
J. Bovich, Morgan Stanley Asset Management Inc., subadviser to the Fund. The
following excerpts reflect their views on the Fund's performance during the
12-month period ended May 31, 1998.
Q HOW WOULD YOU CHARACTERIZE THE MARKET CONDITIONS IN WHICH THE FUND OPERATED
DURING THE REPORTING PERIOD?
A During the period, there were several prevailing trends in the
global marketplace:
Asian stocks remained weak in the aftermath of the severe
financial crisis that shook the region last year. After rebounding
early in 1998, most Asian markets fell back toward 12-month lows
as social and political turmoil underscored the deepening
recession. And, chronic economic weakness in Japan has compounded
the difficulties for its Asian trading partners.
European stocks soared on strengthening economic growth, falling
interest rates, and low inflation. In May, the European Monetary
Union (EMU), set to begin in January 1999, officially named its 11
participant nations. We believe that monetary union will enhance
Europe's growth and ability to restructure its markets and
economies. We further expect to see continued cross-border mergers
and acquisitions, especially in the financial sector.
In the United States, stocks continued a more than seven-year
bull market, powered by robust economic growth and exceptionally
low inflation. As the reporting period ended, however, there was
tentative evidence that drag from Asia was beginning to have a
negative impact on earnings.
Q WHAT SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENT TECHNIQUES AND STRATEGIES DID YOU USE TO PURSUE
THE FUND'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE?
A As of the end of the reporting period, the Fund had the following regional
allocations relative to six months earlier:
MAY 31, 1998* NOVEMBER 30, 1997*
------------ -----------------
North America..................41.73% .......................40.99%
Europe ........................42.70% .......................38.64%
Japan ..........................4.46% ........................6.13%
Far East .......................0.02% ........................0.32%
Cash ...........................9.04% .......................12.54%
Other............................2.05%........................1.38%
*As a percentage of total assets.
We increased weightings in Europe, based on our view that the
economic environment is both improving and supportive of earnings growth.
We significantly underweighted the Fund's exposure to Asia and
Japan in the wake of the ongoing economic turbulence in the region.
We remained underweight in the United States because of concerns
about valuations and a looming deceleration in corporate profit growth.
We kept cash levels high, reflecting our preference to maintain
liquidity in order to capitalize on attractive buying opportunities
in the future.

<PAGE>
Q HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED DURING THE REPORTING PERIOD?
A The Fund's total return during the 12 months ended May 31, 1998 was 19.77
percent1 (Class A shares at net asset value). During the same period, the Morgan
Stanley Capital International World Index + Dividends returned 20.47 percent.
Please keep in mind that the MSCI World Index + Dividends is a broad-based index
used as a benchmark for general global equity funds. It does not reflect any
commissions or sales charges that would be paid by an investor purchasing the
securities it represents. Please refer to the chart on page four for additional
Fund performance results.
Q WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE MONTHS AHEAD?
A We believe that a meaningful recovery in Asia is not yet in sight. Before
global confidence can be restored, significant political and economic reform
must take place. To date, such reform has generally been too little and too
late. While we do not expect the turmoil in Asia to cause a devaluation of the
Chinese currency, we nonetheless believe that it is too early to commit funds to
the region. We remain highly positive on Europe. Although valuations are not
particularly compelling, they are well supported by double-digit earnings growth
and the accelerating pace of economic activity. We also expect that monetary
union will be the catalyst for important corporate and government restructuring,
as well as further liberalization of markets and economies. Prior to monetary
union, for example, real or inflation-adjusted interest rates were typically
high throughout Europe, encouraging investors to park cash in money market
funds. The general decline of short-term rates throughout the Continent,
however, is motivating investors to increase their equity exposure. We are more
cautious about near-term prospects for stocks in the United States, where high
valuations and slowing profit growth could limit the equity market's upside
potential over the near term.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Van Kampen American Capital Global Equity Fund (the "Fund") is organized as a
series of Van Kampen American Capital World Portfolio Series Trust, a Delaware
business trust, and is registered as a diversified open-end management
investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The
Fund's investment objective is to provide long-term growth of capital by
investing in an internationally diversified portfolio of equity securities.
Investments in foreign securities involve certain risks not ordinarily
associated with investments in securities of domestic issuers, including
fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, future political and economic
developments, and the possible imposition of exchange controls or other foreign
governmental laws or restrictions. The Fund commenced investment operations on
August 5, 1991. The distribution of the Fundis Class B and Class C shares
commenced on November 15, 1991 and June 21, 1993, respectively.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies
consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial
statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
A. SECURITY VALUATION - Investments in securities listed on a securities
exchange are valued at their sale price as of the close of such securities
exchange. Unlisted securities and listed securities for which the last sales
price is not available are valued at the last bid price. Fixed income
investments are stated at value using market quotations. For those securities
where quotations or prices are not available, valuations are determined in
accordance with procedures established in good faith by the Board of Trustees.
Short-term securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at
amortized cost.
B. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS - Security transactions are recorded on a trade date
basis. Realized gains and losses are determined on an identified cost basis. The
fund may invest in repurchase agreements, which are short-term investments in
which the Fund acquires ownership of a debt security and the seller agrees to
repurchase the security at a future time and specified price. The Fund may
invest independently in repurchase agreements, or transfer uninvested cash
balances into a pooled cash account along with other investment companies
advised by Van Kampen American Capital Asset Management, Inc. (the "Adviser")
or its affiliates, the daily aggregate of which is invested in repurchase
agreements. Repurchase agreements are fully collateralized by the underlying
debt security. The Fund will make payment for such securities only upon physical
delivery or evidence of book entry transfer to the account of the custodian
bank. The seller is required to maintain the value of the underlying security
at not less than the repurchase proceeds due the Fund.
C. INCOME AND EXPENSES - Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date
and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Original issue discount is
amortized over the life of each applicable security. Premiums on debt
securities are not amortized. Market discounts are recognized at the time of
sale as realized gains for book purposes and as ordinary income for tax
purposes.
Expenses of the Fund are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class
of shares, except for distribution and service fees and transfer agency costs
which are unique to each class of shares.
D. CURRENCY TRANSLATION - Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies and commitments under forward currency contracts are translated into
U.S. dollars based on quoted exchange rates as of noon Eastern Time. Purchases
and sales of portfolio securities are translated at the rate of exchange
prevailing when such securities were acquired or sold. Income and expenses are
translated at rates prevailing when accrued. Gains and losses on the sale of
securities are not segregated for financial reporting purposes between amounts
arising from changes in exchange rates and amounts arising from changes in the
market prices of securities. Realized gain and loss on foreign currency includes
the net realized amount from the sale of currency and the amount realized
between trade date and settlement date on security transactions.
E. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES - It is the Fund's policy to comply with the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its
shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is required.
At May 31, 1998, for federal income tax purposes, cost of long- and
short-term investments is $301,410,255; the aggregate gross unrealized
appreciation is $51,548,443 and the aggregate gross unrealized depreciation is
$8,836,391, resulting in net unrealized appreciation of $42,712,052. Net
realized gains or losses may differ for financial reporting purposes primarily
as a result of wash sales and the mark to market of open futures and open
forward currency contracts at May 31, 1998.
F. DISTRIBUTION OF INCOME AND GAINS - The Fund declares and pays dividends
annually from net investment income. Net realized gains, if any, are distributed
annually. Net investment income for federal income tax purposes includes gains
and losses realized on transactions in foreign currencies. These realized gains
and losses are included as net realized gains or losses for financial reporting
purposes.
37
<PAGE>
Due to inherent differences in the recognition of income, expenses and
realized gains/losses under generally accepted accounting principles and federal
income tax purposes, the following permanent differences between book and tax
basis reporting for the 1998 fiscal year have been identified and appropriately
reclassified as follows:
Accumulated Undistributed Net
Investment Income....................$ 3,342,357 (a)(b)
Accumulated Net Realized
Gain/Loss..........................$ (3,301,076)(a)(b)(c)
Capital.........................................$ (41,281)(c)
(a) Includes $3,333,529 of realized gains and losses on transactions in foreign
currencies which are included as ordinary income for federal income tax
purposes. These realized gains and losses are included in net realized gain/loss
for financial reporting purposes. (b) Includes $8,828 of realized gains and
losses on transactions in passive foreign investment companies which are
included as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes. These realized
gains and losses are included in net realized gain/loss for financial reporting
purposes. (c) Includes $41,281 of realized gains and losses reclassified to
capital for federal income tax purposes, but not for financial reporting
purposes.
For Federal income tax purposes, the following information is furnished
with respect to the distributions paid by the Fund from June 1, 1997 to May
31,1998. The Fund designated $26,207,295 as a 28% rate capital gain
distribution. Shareholders will receive a 1998 Form 1099-DIV in January 1999
representing their proportionate share of the capital gain distribution to be
reported on their income tax returns. The impact of any retroactive tax law
changes will be reflected in the 1998 Form 1099-DIV. For corporate shareholders
8.96% of the distributions qualify for the dividend received deductions.
2. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Under the terms of the Fund's Investment Advisory Agreement, the Adviser will
provide investment advice and facilities to the Fund for an annual fee payable
monthly.
Investment advisory fees are calculated monthly, based on the average
daily net assets of the Fund at the annual rate of 1.00%. The Adviser has
entered into a subadvisory agreement with Morgan Stanley Asset Management Inc.
(the "Subadviser") who provides advisory services to the Fund and the Adviser
with respect to the Fundis investments. The Adviser pays 50% of its investment
advisory fee to the Subadviser.
For the year ended May 31, 1998, the Fund recognized expenses of
approximately $28,300, representing legal services provided by Skadden, Arps,
Slate, Meagher & Flom (Illinois), counsel to the Fund of which a trustee of the
Fund is an affiliated person.
For the year ended May 31, 1998, the Fund recognized expenses of
approximately $28,800, representing Van Kampen American Capital Distributors,
Inc. or its affiliates (collectively iVKAC) cost of providing accounting
services to the Fund. These services are provided by VKAC at cost.
ACCESS Investor Services, Inc. ("ACCESS"), an affiliate of the Adviser,
serves as the shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. For the year ended May
31, 1998, the Fund recognized expenses of approximately $1,230,600. Beginning in
1998, the transfer agency fees are determined through negotiations with the
Fundis Board of Trustees and are based on competitive market benchmarks.
Certain officers and trustees of the Fund are also officers and
directors of VKAC. The Fund does not compensate its officers or trustees who
are officers of VKAC.
The Fund provides deferred compensation and retirement plans for its
trustees who are not officers of VKAC. Under the deferred compensation plan,
trustees may elect to defer all or a portion of their compensation to a later
date. Benefits under the retirement plan are payable for a ten-year period and
are based upon each trustee's years of service to the Fund. The maximum annual
benefit per trustee under the plan is equal to $2,500.
During the period, the Fund owned the following Morgan Stanley Funds
which were managed by the Subadviser:

Class B and Class C shares are offered without a front- end sales charge, but
are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC). Class B and Class C
shares will automatically convert to Class A shares after the eighth and tenth

4. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
During the period, the cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investments,
excluding short-term investments, were $255,672,241 and $283,522,141,
respectively.
5. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
A derivative financial instrument in very general terms refers to a security
whose value is derived from the value of an underlying asset, reference rate
or index.
The Fund has a variety of reasons to use derivative instruments, such
as to attempt to protect the Fund against possible changes in the market value
of its portfolio, manage the portfolio's effective yield, foreign currency
exposure, or generate potential gain. All of the Fund's portfolio holdings,
including derivative instruments, are marked to market each day with the change
in value reflected in unrealized appreciation/depreciation. Upon disposition, a
realized gain or loss is recognized accordingly, except when taking delivery of
a security underlying a futures or forward contract. In this instance, the
recognition of gain or loss is postponed until the disposal of the security
underlying the futures or forward commitment.
Purchasing securities on a forward commitment involves a risk that the
market value at the time of delivery may be lower than the agreed upon purchase
price resulting in an unrealized loss. Selling securities on a forward
commitment involves different risks and can result in losses more significant
than those arising from the purchase of such securities. Risks may arise as a
result of the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of
their contracts.

<PAGE>
Summarized below are the specific types of derivative financial
instruments used by the Fund.
A. Futures Contracts - A futures contract is an agreement involving the delivery
of a particular asset on a specified future date at an agreed upon price. The
Fund generally invests in stock index futures. These contracts are generally
used to provide the return of an index without purchasing all the securities
underlying the index or to manage the Fundis overall exposure to the equity
markets.
Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund maintains, in a
segregated account with its custodian, securities with a value equal to its
obligation under the futures contracts. During the period the futures contract
is open, payments are received from or made to the broker based upon changes in
the value of the contract (the variation margin). The risk of loss associated
with a futures contract is in excess of the variation margin reflected on the
Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Transactions in futures contracts for the year ended May 31, 1998, were
as follows:

B. FORWARD CURRENCY CONTRACTS - These instruments are commitments to purchase
or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated forward rate. The
gain or loss arising from the difference between the original value of the
contract and the closing value of such contract is included as a component of
realized gain/loss on foreign currency. Risks may arise as a result of the
potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.

Report of Independent Accountants
To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of
The Van Kampen American Capital Global Equity Fund
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the schedule of investments, 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 Van Kampen American Capital Global
Equity Fund (the "Fund"), a series of Van Kampen American Capital World
Portfolio Series Trust, at May 31, 1998, and the results of its operations, the
changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for each of the 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 May 31,
1998 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers and the application of
alternative procedures where confirmations from brokers were not received,
provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
