A Great Time To Diversify

                                    [PHOTO]

                                 Noel P. Rahn,
                                    Chairman

By just about any measure, the six months ending September 30, 1995 has been one
of the best periods in my memory for U.S. stocks and bonds. The economy has been
behaving just right: not too fast to bring back inflation, and not too slow to
bring on a recession. And American business is the most productive in the world.
It's a perfect recipe for continued success in the markets.

But just as the investment world was gloomy in 1994, let's not assume that
1995's performance is the norm, either. Stocks and bonds can be volatile. That's
particularly important to remember when prices are high. One of the most
important investment principles is diversification-not putting all your eggs in
one basket.

By investing in mutual funds, you have already taken a step towards
diversification. A typical mutual fund invests in dozens of securities, a much
more diversified portfolio than you can generally achieve on your own. But
another way to diversify is to broaden your investment horizon into areas that
haven't done quite as well. One example: international funds.

Developed and developing markets throughout the world have not matched the U.S.
economy during the past year. As a result, their securities have lagged our
markets. Since international markets largely move independently of the United
States, an investment overseas is considered an excellent way to diversify a
portfolio. This is particularly true when our markets are nearing all-time
highs.

If investing internationally is not for you, then there are other ways to
diversify your portfolio. If you've got mutual funds that invest in just one
type of investment objective, then you might want to consider broadening your
investment horizon. Of course, whether you focus on growth or income or a blend
of the two depends on your time horizon. If you're investing for a retirement
that's 30 years down the road, then you can afford to take more risk than if you
need the income from those investments right away.

Regardless of the time frame, the U.S. markets will continue to be impacted by
the performance of the economy, the outlook for inflation, and the level of
interest rates. Over the next six months, the presidential primary season will
also play a role. All of these events are truly unpredictable and uncontrollable
by the average investor. That makes investing a continuing challenge, and
another reason to stay diversified.

Economic Outlook

Larry Hill, IAI's Chief Investment Officer, provides his economic outlook below,
as published recently in the Adviser.

For the remainder of 1995, the economy will grow at a rate of 2.5%. The next
move will probably be to accelerate and move to a modestly higher level next
year.

There is fundamental support for the equity market, although with the market up
as much as it is currently, caution is warranted. However, corporate earnings
and cash flow growth remain strong and provide solid underpinnings to equities.
If the strong earnings continue, higher valuations can be justified. Also, the
tremendous cash flow into equities has been a very strong supporting factor, and
as long as it continues, the general stock market will probably not decline more
than about 5% over the near term, although certain sectors such as technology
and possibly financial may drop more in an overall rotating correction.

In fixed-income markets, there has been a tremendous amount of buying of U.S.
government bonds by foreign central banks. That has supported the U.S. markets
and is one of the reasons interest rates declined and the bond market rallied
strongly this year. Currently, the economy is too weak to support the Fed
raising rates, and rates could move lower because there are enough signs of
weakness in the economy and lack of real price pressure.

Overall, the economic environment remains reasonably positive for financial
markets. It may not be a time to take significant new positions in stocks or
bonds at current levels, however, neither is it a time to raise cash. From a
valuation and asset allocation point of view, international markets currently
may have more room to appreciate than domestic markets.

Please read the Fund Managers' Reviews which follow this letter for a detailed
perspective on the Fund's performance and our strategy going forward. We
appreciate your continued trust and confidence in IAI. If there is any way we

Fund Objective

IAI Emerging Growth Fund's objective is long-term capital appreciation. The Fund
invests primarily in stocks of small and medium-sized companies, with typical
market capitalizations of $1 billion or less. These companies are at an early
stage of their life cycles. While large enough to be established, they are still
small enough to grow faster than the overall economy and the rate of inflation.

Fund Positioning for the Past Six Months

This has been an excellent year for the IAI Emerging Growth Fund. For the six
months ended September 30, 1995, the Fund's total return has been 30.45%. In
contrast, the Russell 2500, the benchmark to which we are typically compared,
was up 19.38% for the same period, while the S&P 500 was up 18.28%. To be sure,
much of our performance is due to factors such as lower interest rates, the
stronger U.S. dollar and a slowing economy, which makes the earnings of
successful growing companies stand out.

But our stock selection is the key reason for these strong results. We look for
companies that are growing revenues and earnings by at least 20% per year, that
are offering returns on equity of at least 15%, and have a low amount of debt on
the balance sheet. Secondly, we personally visit every company in which we
invest, in an effort to understand what these entrepreneurs are trying to build.
Indeed, our Minneapolis location means that we can get anywhere in the United
States in half a day. And third, we have the discipline to sell a stock quickly
when the company's performance doesn't meet our expectations. Finally,
diversification is essential. No one sector can comprise more than a third of
the portfolio. During much of the year, it would have been tempting to load up
the portfolio with technology stocks. Instead, the portfolio is broadly
diversified.

A few examples of stocks in the portfolio include Oxford Health Plans, a managed
care company based in New York that is taking significant market share from
traditional health insurers by reducing costs and passing those savings on to
employers and employees. Viking Office Products, which sells office supplies
through catalogs, is growing 20% per year in the United States, and is now
expanding into Europe. Ascend Communications is a fast growing provider of high
speed data communications software, focusing on mobile users and the Internet.

Outlook

As we approach 1996, we are optimistic that the economic backdrop for these
types of companies will remain favorable. Inflation and interest rates are
relatively low. And the overall profit growth of Corporate America has slowed
down, insuring that small companies whose growth is not dependent upon a strong
economy will remain at the forefront.

Fund Objective

IAI Growth Fund's primary objective is to earn capital appreciation over the
long term as a result of investing in stocks of established companies which
offer superior growth potential. Many of these high-growth companies provide
strong management, leading market positions, strong balance sheets, well-defined
strategies for future growth, and earnings increasing at above-average rates.

Fund Positioning for the Past Six Months

For the six months ended September 30, 1995, the IAI Growth Fund produced a
total return of 13.34%. In comparison, the total return for the S&P 500 Index
was 18.28% during the same period.

Driven by low inflation, falling interest rates and very strong corporate
profits, the U.S. stock market is in the midst of one of its best years ever.
And investors in the IAI Growth Fund have, for the most part, participated in
the market's sizzling performance. With major holdings in companies such as
Microsoft and Motorola, the portfolio captured 1995's net increase in technology
stocks. A position in Federal National Mortgage and other financial companies
captured the impressive performance of the financial services sector. In
addition, the portfolio benefited by selling cyclical companies such as Dow
Chemical and Georgia Pacific, which had doubled in price.

Other economically sensitive companies, such as Home Depot and Wal-Mart, remain
in the portfolio, and could be excellent performers in the short run,
particularly if the Federal Reserve Board lowers interest rates one more notch.
In addition, HMO stocks in the portfolio could also appreciate sharply if
Congress is able to resolve the Medicare funding issue.

Recently, the U.S. dollar has strengthened against major currencies, causing
some investors to be concerned about lower profits in dollar terms. True, many
of the companies in our portfolio have a substantial amount of foreign sales in
local currencies which now translate into fewer dollars. However, most of these
companies also manufacture products-and incur expenses abroad, largely
offsetting the adverse effects of currency changes.

Outlook

It is our expectation that 1996 S&P 500 earnings will grow about 9%, after
several years of double digit gains. In an environment where corporate profit
growth is moderate, we believe that investors will reward growth stocks that
stand out against the pack.

Fund Objective

IAI Midcap Growth Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing in
medium-sized companies with above average growth potential. The Fund typically
invests in companies with market capitalization between $500 million and $5
billion. These companies tend to be larger and better established, and hence
less volatile, than small emerging growth companies, while offering stronger
long-term growth potential than most large cap companies.

Fund Positioning for the Past Six Months

For the six months ended September 30, 1995, the IAI Midcap Growth Fund produced
total return of 12.59%. In comparison, the total return for the Callan Midcap
Index was 16.94% during the same period, while the S&P 400 Midcap Index returned
19.33%. The primary reasons for our moderate underperformance: technology and
financial services continued to lead the markets, and we are somewhat
underweighted in those groups.

Typically, financial service companies do not fit our growth parameters, and the
technology sector has appeared overpriced for many months. The recent initial
public offering of Netscape--a company that helps customers navigate the 
Internet--was a clear sign that technology was overheated. In its first day of
trading, the company's market capitalization approached $3 billion-this for a
company with $16 million in revenues and no earnings. We continue to maintain
our discipline of investing in companies which should generate attractive
returns on a sustained basis, and refrain from chasing short-term phenomena.

Examples of this long-term strategy include such investments as Promus Hotels, a
company we recently added to the portfolio. After a long period of overbuilding
in the 1980s, the industry is now experiencing increasing room rates and
tightening occupancies. In addition, we recently purchased Heilig-Meyers, a
furniture retailer with more than 660 stores throughout the United States. This
segment of retailing is still very fragmented, and the company has demonstrated
its ability to grow through acquisitions. Another interesting midcap company is
Sensormatic Electronics, the nation's largest maker of security systems, and a
long-time holding of ours. Revenues grew 39% in the past quarter.

Outlook

The backdrop of modest economic growth and low inflation present us with an
ideal environment for midcap growth stocks. Despite the excesses in specific
segments of the stock market, we do not believe that there will be a broad based
correction of significant magnitude.

       IAI Emerging Growth Fund, IAI Growth Fund, IAI Midcap Growth Fund

                              September 30, 1995
                                  (unaudited)

[1] Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The IAI Mutual Funds are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (as
amended) as diversified, open-end management investment companies, or series
thereof. The IAI Emerging Growth Fund (Emerging Growth Fund) and IAI Midcap
Growth Fund (Midcap Growth Fund) are separate portfolios of IAI Investment Fund
VI, Inc. and IAI Growth Fund (Growth Fund) is a separate portfolio of IAI
Investment Funds II. This report covers only the Emerging Growth Fund, Growth
Fund, and Midcap Growth Fund (the Funds).

Significant accounting policies followed by the Funds are summarized below:

Security Valuation

Investments in securities traded on national securities exchanges are valued at
the last reported sales price at the close of each business day. Securities
traded on the over-the-counter market are valued at the last reported sale price
or if no last sales price is available, the last reported bid price is used.
Restricted securities for which there is no public market are valued at fair
value in good faith as determined by the Board of Directors.

Short-term securities with a maturity of 60 days or less from the date of
purchase are valued at amortized cost. Short-term securities with a maturity
greater than 60 days from the date of purchase are marked-to-market on a daily
basis.

Futures and Options Contracts

In order to produce incremental earnings, protect gains, and facilitate buying
and selling of securities, the Funds may buy and sell futures contracts and
options. These investments involve risks caused by the possibility of an
imperfect correlation between movements in the value of the contract or option
and the price of the underlying securities and interest rates. Risks may also
arise if there is an illiquid secondary market for the instruments, or due to
the inability of counterparties to perform. Futures contracts are valued at the
settlement price of the exchange on which they are traded. Options traded on an
exchange are valued using the last sale price. Options traded over-the-counter
are valued using dealer-supplied valuations.

Upon entering into a futures contract, the Funds are required to deposit either
cash or securities, representing the initial margin, equal to a certain
percentage of the contract value. Subsequent changes in the value of the
contract or variation margin, are recorded as unrealized gains and losses. The
variation margin is paid or received in cash daily by the Funds. The Funds
realize a gain or loss when the contract is closed or expires.

                                                                              31

       IAI Emerging Growth Fund, IAI Growth Fund, IAI Midcap Growth Fund

                               September 30, 1995
                                  (unaudited)

Federal Taxes

Since it is each Fund's policy to comply with the provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all
of its taxable income to its shareholders, no provision for income taxes is
required. In order to avoid the payment of any federal excise taxes, each Fund
is required to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net
realized gains on a calendar year basis.

Net investment income and net realized gains differ for financial statement and
tax purposes primarily because of recognition of limited partnership income and
the deferral of "wash sale" losses for tax purposes. The character of
distributions made during the year for net investment income or net realized
gains may also differ from its ultimate characterization for tax purposes.

For federal income tax purposes Emerging Growth Fund and Growth Fund have
capital loss carryovers of approximately $2,327,000 and $291,000, respectively,
at March 31, 1995 which, if not offset by subsequent capital gains, will expire
in 2002 and 2003. It is unlikely the Board of Directors will authorize a
distribution of any net realized gains until the available capital loss
carryover is offset or expires.

Security Transactions and Investment Income

The Funds record security transactions on trade date, the date the securities
are purchased or sold. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. The Funds amortize discount
purchased on long-term bonds using the level yield method of amortization.
Security gains and losses are determined on the basis of identified cost, which
is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes.

Distributions to Shareholders

Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-date. Distributions from
net investment income are made semi-annually. Capital gains, if any, are
primarily distributed as of the end of the calendar year. Additional capital
gains distributions as needed to comply with federal tax regulations are
distributed during the year.

Organization Costs

Organization costs are being amortized over 60 months on a straight-line basis.
In the event Investment Advisers, Inc. (Advisers) redeems any or all of its
shares representing initial capital in the Funds prior to the date such costs
are fully amortized, it will bear such portion of the unamortized organization
cost of the Funds as the number of shares redeemed bears to the initial purchase
of shares.

[2] Commitments and Contingencies

For purposes of obtaining certain types of insurance coverage for the Funds and
its officers and directors, the Funds are policyholders in an industry-sponsored
mutual insurance company (the Company). In connection with their obligations as
policyholders, the Funds have made payments to the Company which have been
capitalized. Also, the Funds are committed to make future capital contributions,
if requested by the Company.

Emerging Growth Fund, Growth Fund, and Midcap Growth Fund have available lines
of credit of $15,000,000, $4,550,000 and $15,000,000, respectively, with a bank
at prime interest rates. To the extent funds are drawn against the line,
securities are held in a segregated account. No compensating balances or
commitment fees are required under the line of credit. There were no borrowings
outstanding at September 30, 1995 for the Funds.

At September 30, 1995, the Funds are committed to invest additional amounts in
certain limited partnership investments held, as follows:

Default by a limited partner of payment of a properly requested capital
contribution, other than default due to a legal determination that such
contribution need not be made, would result in forfeiture of such limited
partner's interest in any future profits and loss in the partnership and removal
from the limited partnership.

The Funds' management intends to finance the aforementioned commitments with
available cash or with proceeds from the sale of temporary investments in short-
term securities. The Funds maintain a "segregated account" in an amount equal to
its aggregate unpaid commitments.

                                                                              33

[3] Fees and Expenses

Under terms of an investment advisory agreement, Emerging Growth and Midcap
Growth Funds pay Investment Advisers, Inc. (Advisers) a monthly management fee
based on average month-end net assets value equal on an annual basis to .75% of
the first $200 million in net assets, .70% of the next $300 million in net
assets, .65% of net assets in excess of $500 million and Growth Fund pays
Advisers .75% of the first $100 million in net assets, 0.65% of the next $100
million in net assets, 0.55% of net assets in excess of $200 million for the
Growth Fund.

Each Fund also pays an annual fee to Advisers for acting as the Fund's dividend-
disbursing, administrative, and accounting services agent. The fee is computed
monthly on the average month-end net assets at an annual rate of .20%.

The Funds have adopted a plan of distribution with IAI Securities, Inc.
(Distributor), the Funds' distributor. Under the Plan, each Fund pays
Distributor a monthly fee to cover expenses incurred in the distribution and
promotion of Fund shares. The fee is equal to an annual rate of .25% of each
Fund's average month-end net assets.

In addition to the advisory, distribution, and the dividend-disbursing,
administrative, and accounting services fees, the Funds are responsible for
paying operating expenses, including costs incurred in the purchase and sale of
assets. Advisers and Distributor have agreed to reimburse the Funds to the
extent total expenses, excluding costs incurred in the purchase and sale of
assets, exceed, on an annual basis, 1.25% of each Fund's respective average
month-end net assets.

first being registered under the Securities Act of 1933 ("restricted
securities"). Each Fund limits investments in securities which are not readily
marketable to 15 percent of its total assets at the time of purchase. This
limitation does not include Rule 144A securities that have been determined to be

A Great Time To Diversify

                                    [PHOTO]

                                 Noel P. Rahn,
                                    Chairman

By just about any measure, the six months ending September 30, 1995 has been one
of the best periods in my memory for U.S. stocks and bonds. The economy has been
behaving just right: not too fast to bring back inflation, and not too slow to
bring on a recession. And American business is the most productive in the world.
It's a perfect recipe for continued success in the markets.

But just as the investment world was gloomy in 1994, let's not assume that
1995's performance is the norm, either. Stocks and bonds can be volatile. That's
particularly important to remember when prices are high. One of the most
important investment principles is diversification-not putting all your eggs in
one basket.

By investing in mutual funds, you have already taken a step towards
diversification. A typical mutual fund invests in dozens of securities, a much
more diversified portfolio than you can generally achieve on your own. But
another way to diversify is to broaden your investment horizon into areas that
haven't done quite as well. One example: international funds.

Developed and developing markets throughout the world have not matched the U.S.
economy during the past year. As a result, their securities have lagged our
markets. Since international markets largely move independently of the United
States, an investment overseas is considered an excellent way to diversify a
portfolio. This is particularly true when our markets are nearing all-time
highs.

If investing internationally is not for you, then there are other ways to
diversify your portfolio. If you've got mutual funds that invest in just one
type of investment objective, then you might want to consider broadening your
investment horizon. Of course, whether you focus on growth or income or a blend
of the two depends on your time horizon. If you're investing for a retirement
that's 30 years down the road, then you can afford to take more risk than if you
need the income from those investments right away.

Regardless of the time frame, the U.S. markets will continue to be impacted by
the performance of the economy, the outlook for inflation, and the level of
interest rates. Over the next six months, the presidential primary season will
also play a role. All of these events are truly unpredictable and uncontrollable
by the average investor. That makes investing a continuing challenge, and
another reason to stay diversified.

Economic Outlook

Larry Hill, IAI's Chief Investment Officer, provides his economic outlook below,
as published recently in the Adviser.

For the remainder of 1995, the economy will grow at a rate of 2.5%. The next
move will probably be to accelerate and move to a modestly higher level next
year.

There is fundamental support for the equity market, although with the market up
as much as it is currently, caution is warranted. However, corporate earnings
and cash flow growth remain strong and provide solid underpinnings to equities.
If the strong earnings continue, higher valuations can be justified. Also, the
tremendous cash flow into equities has been a very strong supporting factor, and
as long as it continues, the general stock market will probably not decline more
than about 5% over the near term, although certain sectors such as technology
and possibly financial may drop more in an overall rotating correction.

In fixed-income markets, there has been a tremendous amount of buying of U.S.
government bonds by foreign central banks. That has supported the U.S. markets
and is one of the reasons interest rates declined and the bond market rallied
strongly this year. Currently, the economy is too weak to support the Fed
raising rates, and rates could move lower because there are enough signs of
weakness in the economy and lack of real price pressure.

Overall, the economic environment remains reasonably positive for financial
markets. It may not be a time to take significant new positions in stocks or
bonds at current levels, however, neither is it a time to raise cash. From a
valuation and asset allocation point of view, international markets currently
may have more room to appreciate than domestic markets.

Please read the Fund Managers' Reviews which follow this letter for a detailed
perspective on the Fund's performance and our strategy going forward. We
appreciate your continued trust and confidence in IAI. If there is any way we

Fund Objective

IAI Balanced Fund's objective is to deliver maximum total return. This is
pursued by investing in a broadly diversified portfolio consisting primarily of
stocks, bonds, and short-term instruments. We may also invest in other
securities. As the market outlook changes, the Fund's asset allocation is
shifted gradually.

Fund Positioning For the Past Six Months

For the six months ended September 30, 1995, the IAI Balanced Fund produced a
total return of 8.41%. In comparison, the total return for the Lehman
Government/Corporate Bond Index was 8.53% during the same period, while the S&P
500 Index returned 18.28%.

During the past six months, corporate profits continued to grow at a double
digit rate, powering the stock market to record levels. As a result of stronger
than expected stock market returns, we reduced the equity exposure slightly in
the Balanced Fund to 54% of the total portfolio. Long-term interest rates fell
sharply, and we have increased our weighting in bonds and preferred stock to
36%.

To compensate for low yields, the bond portfolio currently includes a sizable
portion of corporate bonds, mortgage-backed securities, international bonds and
other securities offering a yield premium. Corporate names include such well-
known companies as Prudential Insurance and Coca Cola Enterprises, the beverage
company's bottling operation. Corporate bonds have been the best performing
asset class in the fixed income market, even though the economy has been
slowing. The reason: strong cash flows have reduced the need to issue
securities, and this lack of supply has kept corporate bond prices high.

The equity portion of the Balanced Fund focuses on large high-growth companies.
Stocks in the portfolio include such well-known large growth companies as Home
Depot, McDonald's and Motorola.

Outlook

Although we expect the overall growth rate of corporate earnings to be about 9%
in 1996, which is above average, the rate of change is clearly beginning to slow
after four years of double digit gains. As this transition unfolds, stocks that
show superior growth will be rewarded in the marketplace. Long-term interest
rates have come down in recent months, suggesting that the bond market may be in
a trading range for a while. As a result, the bond portion of the Balanced Fund
will continue to focus on yield, by holding a higher than average proportion of
corporate bonds and asset backed securities.

                               IAI Balanced Fund

                              September 30, 1995
                                  (unaudited)


[1] Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
            
IAI Investment Funds VI, Inc. is registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940 (as amended) as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The
IAI Balanced Fund is a separate portfolio of IAI Investment Funds VI, Inc. This
report covers only the IAI Balanced Fund (the Fund).

Significant accounting policies followed by the Fund are summarized below:

Security Valuation

Investments in securities traded on national securities exchanges are valued at
the last reported sales price at the close of each business day; securities
traded on the over-the-counter market are valued at the last reported sales
price or if the last sales price is not available, the last reported bid price
is used. The values of debt securities are determined using pricing services or
prices quoted by independent brokers. Restricted securities for which there is
no public market are valued at fair value in good faith as determined by the
Board of Directors. Short-term securities with a maturity of 60 days or less
from the date of purchase are valued at amortized cost. Short-term securities
with a maturity greater than 60 days from the date of purchase are marked to
market on a daily basis.

Securities Purchased on a
When-Issued Basis

Delivery and payment for securities which have been purchased by the Fund on a
forward commitment or when-issued basis can take place a month or more after the
transaction date. During this period, such securities are subject to market
fluctuations and the Fund maintains, in a segregated account with its custodian,
assets with a market value equal to the amount of its purchase commitments.

Futures and Options
Contracts

In order to protect gains, facilitate buying and selling of securities, and
produce incremental earnings, the Fund may buy and sell futures contracts and
options. These investments involve risks caused by the possibility of an
imperfect correlation between movements in the value of the contract or option
and the price of the underlying securities and interest rates. Risks may also
arise if there is an illiquid secondary market for the instruments, or due to
the inability of counterparties to perform. Futures contracts are valued at the
settlement price of the exchange on which they are traded. Options traded on an
exchange are valued using the last sale price. Options traded over-the-counter
are valued using dealer-supplied valuations.

Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit either
cash or securities, representing the initial margin, equal to a certain
percentage of the contract value. Subsequent changes in the value of the
contract, or variation margin, are recorded as unrealized gains and losses. The
variation margin is paid or received in cash daily by the Fund. The Fund
realizes a gain or loss when the contract is closed or expires.

Foreign Currency
Translations and Forward
Foreign Currency
Contracts

The Fund invests in foreign securities. The market value of securities and other
assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies is translated daily
into U.S. dollars at the closing rate of exchange. Purchases and sales of
securities, income and expenses are translated at the exchange rate on the
transaction date and are recorded in realized and

                               IAI Balanced Fund


                              September 30, 1995
                                  (unaudited)


unrealized appreciation or depreciation on foreign currency transactions.
Exchange gains (losses) may also be realized between the trade and settlement
dates on security and foreign currency contract 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.

The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts for
operational purposes and to protect against adverse exchange rate fluctuation.
The net U.S. dollar value of foreign currency underlying all contractual
commitments held by the Fund and the resulting unrealized appreciation or
depreciation are determined using foreign currency exchange rates from an
independent pricing service. The Fund is subject to the credit risk that the
other party will not complete the obligations of the contract.

Federal Taxes

Since it is the Fund's policy to comply with the provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all
of its taxable income to its shareholders, no provision for income taxes is
required. In order to avoid the payment of any federal excise taxes, the Fund is
required to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net
realized gains on a calendar year basis.

Net investment income and net realized gains may differ for financial statement
and tax purposes primarily because of recognition of limited partnership income,
certain foreign currency gains and losses treated as ordinary income and the
deferral of "wash sale" losses for tax purposes. The character of distributions
made during the year for net investment income or net realized gains may also
differ from its ultimate characterization for tax purposes.

For federal income tax purposes, the Fund has a capital loss carryover of
approximately $1,367,000 at March 31, 1995 which, if not offset by subsequent
capital gains, will expire in 2003. It is unlikely the Board of Directors will
authorize a distribution of any net realized gains until the available capital
loss carryover is offset or expires.

Security Transactions and
Investment Income

The Fund records security transactions on trade date, the date the securities
are purchased or sold. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. The Fund amortizes discount
purchased on long-term bonds using the level yield method of amortization.
Security gains and losses are determined on the basis of identified cost, which
is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes.

Distributions to
Shareholders

Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-date. Distributions from
net investment income are made semi-annually. Capital gains, if any, are
primarily distributed at the end of the calendar year. Additional capital gains
distributions, as needed to comply with federal tax regulations, are distributed
during the year.

Organization Costs

Organization costs are being amortized over 60 months on a straight-line basis.
In the event Investment Advisers, Inc. (Advisers) redeems any or all of its
shares representing initial capital in the Fund prior to the date such costs are
fully amortized, it will bear such portion of the unamortized organization costs
as the number of shares redeemed bears to the initial purchase of shares.

[2] Commitments and Contingencies

At September 30, 1995 the Fund is committed to invest additional amounts in
certain limited partnership investments held. The following schedule identifies
outstanding commitments:

Limited Partnership Investment Commitments

<TABLE> 
<S>                               <C>
Spectrum Equity Investors L.P.     $359,000
Vanguard Associates IV L.P.         100,000
                                  --------- 
Total commitments                  $459,000
                                  ========= 
</TABLE>

Default by a limited partner of payment of a properly requested capital
contribution, other than default due to a legal determination that such
contribution need not be made, would result in forfeiture of such limited
partner's interest in any future profit and loss in the partnership and 
removal from the limited partnership.

The Fund's management intends to finance the aforementioned commitments with
available cash or with proceeds from the sale of investments in short-term
securities. The Fund maintains a "segregated account" in an amount equal to its
aggregate unpaid commitments.

For purposes of obtaining certain types of insurance coverage for the Fund and
its officers and directors, the Fund is a policyholder in an industry-sponsored
mutual insurance company (the Company). In connection with its obligation as a
policyholder, the Fund has made payments to the Company which have been
capitalized. Also, the Fund is committed to make future capital contributions,
if requested by the Company.

The Fund has available a $14,750,000 line of credit with a bank at prime
interest rates. To the extent funds are drawn against the line, securities are
held in a segregated account. No compensating balances or commitment fees are
required under the line of credit. There were no borrowings outstanding at
September 30, 1995.

[3] Fees and Expenses

Under terms of an investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays Advisers a
monthly management fee based upon month-end net assets equal on an annual basis
to .75% of the first $200 million in net assets, .70% of the next $300 million
in net assets and .65% of net assets in excess of $500 million.

The Fund also pays an annual fee to Advisers for acting as the Fund's dividend-
disbursing, administrative, and accounting services agent. The fee is computed
monthly on the average month-end net assets at an annual rate of .20%.

The Fund has adopted a plan of distribution with IAI Securities, Inc.
(Distributor), the Fund's distributor. Under the Plan, the Fund pays Distributor
a monthly fee to cover expenses incurred in the distribution and promotion of
the Fund's shares. The

fee is equal to an annual rate of .25% of the Fund's average month-end net
assets.

In addition to the advisory, distribution, and the dividend-disbursing,
administrative, and accounting services fees, the Fund is responsible for paying
its operating expenses, including costs incurred in the purchase and sale of
assets. Advisers and Distributor have agreed to reimburse the Fund to the extent
total expenses, excluding costs incurred in the purchase and sale of assets,
exceed, on an annual basis, 1.25% of average month-end net assets.

[4] Investment Transactions

Purchases and Sales of Securities

For the six months ended September 30, 1995, purchases of securities and sales
proceeds, other than investments in short-term securities, for the Fund
aggregated $44,039,749 and $42,090,977, respectively.

Restricted Securities

Included in the Fund's portfolio of investments in securities at September 30,
1995 are issues which generally cannot be offered for sale to the public without
first being registered under the Securities Act of 1933 ("restricted
securities").

The Fund limits investments in securities that are not readily marketable to 15
percent of its total assets at the time of purchase. This limitation does not
include Rule 144A securities that have been determined to be liquid based upon
guidelines approved by the Fund's Board of Directors.

[5] Open Futures Contracts

The financial futures contracts shown below were open as of September 30, 1995.
The market value of securities deposited to cover initial margin requirements
for the open positions at September 30, 1995 was $396,908.
