MITCHELL HUTCHINS LIR SELECT MONEY FUND                        SEMIANNUAL REPORT


                                                               December 15, 1998

Dear Shareholder,

We are pleased to present you with the semiannual report for Mitchell Hutchins
LIR Select Money Fund (the "Fund") for the fiscal period from commencement of
operations on August 10, 1998 through October 31, 1998.


GENERAL MARKET OVERVIEW
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[GRAPHIC]
U.S. bond market yields fell over the last six months, reflecting investor
demand for high-quality securities and diminishing concern over inflation. The
bond market traded in tandem with the dollar and the yield curve flattened as
long-term rates fell more than short-term rates. Stock market volatility
increased during the summer. In response, investors shifted some of their assets
into Treasury bonds, causing yields to fall and prices to rise. Other sectors of
the fixed income markets did not rise to the same extent, due to doubts about
corporate earnings and uncertainty in the global economy, especially regarding
Japan and Russia.


PERFORMANCE
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[GRAPHIC]
     The Fund commenced operations on August 10, 1998. As of the end of the
fiscal reporting period on October 31, 1998, the Fund's net assets stood at
$508.3 million. The Fund's current yield for Institutional shares was 5.34% for
the seven-day period ended October 31, 1998.

     We adopted a cautious outlook on the markets given the rising uncertainty,
and during the period kept the Fund's weighted average maturity below its peer
group. The Fund's weighted-average maturity was 14 days as of October 31, 1998.
While seeking to maximize current income, we emphasized credit quality,
liquidity and appropriate diversification.

SEMIANNUAL REPORT


OUTLOOK
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[GRAPHIC]
     As 1998 draws to a close, the uncertainty in the financial markets appears
to be subsiding. Global economic conditions appear to be stabilizing at this
time, and governments around the world seem more aware of the impact their
actions have on global economic problems. Interest rates in the United States
continue to reflect both the underlying economy and a flight to quality.

     After three cuts in short-term interest rates this fall, we do not believe
the Federal Reserve will lower rates again this year. We continue to look for
rates to trend lower over the long term, and therefore anticipate increasing the
Fund's weighted average maturity.

     Our ultimate objective in managing your investments is to help you
successfully meet your financial goals. We thank you for your continued support
and welcome any comments or questions you may have.

ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
  Mitchell Hutchins LIR Select Money Fund (the "Fund") is registered with the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, as a diversified series of Mitchell Hutchins Institutional Series
("Trust"), an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware
business trust.
 
  The Fund offers two classes of shares, Institutional shares and Financial
Intermediary shares. Each class represents interests in the same assets of the
Fund, and both classes have equal voting privileges, except that beneficial
owners of Financial Intermediary shares receive certain services directly from
financial intermediaries, bear certain service fees and, to the extent that
matters pertaining to the Shareholder Services Plan or to the Financial
Intermediary shares are submitted to shareholders for approval, only the holders
of Financial Intermediary shares are entitled to vote thereon. For the period
ended October 31, 1998 the Fund had no Financial Intermediary shares
outstanding.
 
  The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires Fund management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Actual results could differ from those estimates. Following is a summary of
significant accounting policies:
 
  VALUATION AND ACCOUNTING FOR INVESTMENTS AND INVESTMENT INCOME--Investments
are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value. Investment
transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses from
investment transactions are calculated using the identified cost method.
Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Premiums are amortized and
discounts are accreted as adjustments to interest income and the identified cost
of investments.
 
  REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS--The Fund's custodian takes possession of the collateral
pledged for investments in repurchase agreements. The underlying collateral is
valued daily on a mark-to-market basis to ensure that the value, including
accrued interest, is at least equal to the repurchase price. In the event that a
counterparty defaults on its obligation to repurchase, the Fund has the right to
liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the
obligation. Under certain circumstances, in the event of default or bankruptcy
by the other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the
collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.
 
  DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS--Dividends and distributions to shareholders are
recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions are
determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ
from generally accepted accounting principles. These "book/tax" differences are
either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these
differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the
capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary
differences do not require reclassification.
 
CONCENTRATION OF RISK
 
  The ability of the issuers of the debt securities held by the Fund to meet
their obligations may be affected by economic developments, including those
particular to a specific industry or region.
 
INVESTMENT ADVISER AND ADMINISTRATOR
 
  The Trust has an Investment Advisory and Administration Contract ("Advisory
Contract") with Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc. ("Mitchell Hutchins"), a
wholly owned subsidiary of PaineWebber Incorporated ("PaineWebber"), under which
Mitchell Hutchins serves as investment adviser and administrator of the Fund. In
accordance with the Advisory Contract, Mitchell Hutchins receives compensation
from the Fund, computed daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 0.18% of
the Fund's average daily net assets.
 
                                       8
<PAGE>
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(UNAUDITED)
 
  Under the Advisory Contract, Mitchell Hutchins has agreed to pay all Fund
expenses other than the management fees, the fees payable pursuant to the
Shareholder Service Plan adopted by the Trust with respect to the Fund's
Financial Intermediary shares, fees and expenses (including counsel fees) of
those trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Trust (as defined in the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) ("Independent Trustees"), interest,
taxes and the cost (including brokerage commissions and other transaction costs,
if any) of securities purchased or sold by the Fund and any losses incurred in
connection therewith and extraordinary expenses (such as costs of litigation to
which the Trust or Fund is a party and of indemnifying officers and trustees of
the Trust.) Although Mitchell Hutchins is not obligated to pay the fees and
expenses of the Independent Trustees, it is contractually obligated to reduce
its management fee in an amount equal to those fees and expenses. Mitchell
Hutchins has also agreed to waive 12 basis points (0.12%) of its 18 basis points
(0.18%) management fee from October 19, 1998 through January 18, 1999. Until
that date, management fees will be 6 basis points (0.06%). For the period ended
October 31, 1998 Mitchell Hutchins voluntarily waived $142,752 in management
fees.
 
OTHER LIABILITIES
 
  At October 31, 1998 the amounts payable for investments purchased and
dividends payable aggregated $20,000,000 and $2,234,833, respectively.
 
FEDERAL TAX STATUS
 
  The Fund intends to distribute all of its taxable income and to comply with
the other requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated
investment companies. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is
required. In addition, by distributing during each calendar year substantially
all of its net investment income, capital gains and certain other amounts, if
any, the Fund intends not to be subject to federal excise tax.
 
SHAREHOLDER SERVICE PLAN AND AGREEMENT
 
  Under a Shareholder Service Plan and Agreement with respect to its Financial
Intermediary shares, the Fund pays PaineWebber monthly fees at the annual rate
of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Financial Intermediary shares
held by financial intermediaries on behalf of their customers. Under Service
Agreements with those financial intermediaries, PaineWebber pays an identical
fee to the financial intermediaries for certain support services that they
provide to the beneficial owners of the Financial Intermediary shares.
 
SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST
 
  There is an unlimited amount of $0.001 par value shares of beneficial interest
authorized. Transactions in shares of beneficial interest, at $1.00 per share,
were as follows:
