NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2000
(Unaudited)
1. General:
Smith Barney International Advisors Currency Fund L.P., (the
"Partnership") is a limited partnership which was organized on May 29, 1991
under the partnership laws of the State of New York to engage in the speculative
trading of a diversified portfolio of commodity interests, including futures
contracts, options and forward contracts. The commodity interests that are
traded by the Partnership are volatile and involve a high degree of market risk.
The Partnership commenced trading operations on March 12, 1992.
Smith Barney Futures Management LLC acts as the general partner (the
"General Partner") of the Partnership. The Partnership's commodity broker is
Salomon Smith Barney Inc. ("SSB"). SSB is an affiliate of the General Partner.
The General Partner is wholly owned by Salomon Smith Barney Holdings Inc.
("SSBHI"), which is the sole owner of SSB. SSBHI is a wholly owned subsidiary of
Citigroup Inc. All trading decisions for the Partnership were made by Friedberg
Commodity Management Inc. (the "Advisor"). Effective February 29, 2000,
Trendview Capital Management Inc. was terminated as an advisor to the
Partnership. Effective April 1, 2000 the Fund's sole remaining advisor,
Friedberg Commodity Management Inc., was terminated as the advisor to the
Partnership and Jacobson Fund Managers Ltd. was appointed the Partnership's
advisor.
The accompanying financial statements are unaudited but, in the
opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the Partnership's
financial condition at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999 and the results of
its operations for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999. These
financial statements present the results of interim periods and do not include
all disclosures normally provided in annual financial statements. It is
suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes included in the Partnership's annual report on
Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended
December 31, 1999.
Due to the nature of commodity trading, the results of operations for
the interim periods presented should not be considered indicative of the results
that may be expected for the entire year.

3. Trading Activities:
The Partnership was formed for the purpose of trading contracts in a
variety of commodity interests, including derivative financial instruments and
derivative commodity instruments. The results of the Partnership's trading
activity are shown in the statement of income and expenses.
The Customer Agreement between the Partnership and SSB gives the
Partnership the legal right to net unrealized gains and losses.

All of the commodity interests owned by the Partnership, are held for
trading purposes. The average fair value during the periods ended March 31, 2000
and December 31, 1999, based on a monthly calculation, was $(18,217) and
$86,012, respectively. The fair value of these commodity interests, including
options thereon, if applicable, at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, was
$(40,425) and ($854), respectively, as detailed below.

Total $(40,425) $ (854)
======== ========
4. Financial Instrument Risk:
The Partnership is party to financial instruments with off-balance
sheet risk, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity
instruments, in the normal course of its business. These financial instruments
may include forwards, futures and options, whose value is based upon an
underlying asset, index, or reference rate, and generally represent future
commitments to exchange currencies or cash flows, to purchase or sell other
financial instruments at specific terms at specified future dates, or, in the
case of derivative commodity instruments, to have a reasonable possibility to be
settled in cash, through physical delivery or with another financial instrument.
These instruments may be traded on an exchange or over-the-counter ("OTC").
Exchange traded instruments are standardized and include futures and certain
option contracts. OTC contracts are negotiated between contracting parties and
include forwards and certain options. Each of these instruments is subject to
various risks similar to those related to the underlying financial instruments
including market and credit risk. In general, the risks associated with OTC
contracts are greater than those associated with exchange traded instruments
because of the greater risk of default by the counterparty to an OTC contract.
Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial
instruments traded by the Partnership due to market changes, including interest
and foreign exchange rate movements and fluctuations in commodity or security
prices. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the
markets in which the related underlying assets are traded.
7
<PAGE>
Credit risk is the possibility that a loss may occur due to the failure
of a counterparty to perform according to the terms of a contract. Credit risk
with respect to exchange traded instruments is reduced to the extent that an
exchange or clearing organization acts as a counterparty to the transactions.
The Partnership's risk of loss in the event of counterparty default is typically
limited to the amounts recognized in the statement of financial condition and
not represented by the contract or notional amounts of the instruments. The
Partnership has concentration risk because the sole counterparty or broker with
respect to the Partnership's assets is SSB.
The Partnership engages in the trading of forward contracts in foreign
currencies. In this connection, the Partnership contracts with SSB as the
counterparty to take future delivery of a particular foreign currency. In a
forward transaction, cash settlement does not occur until the agreed upon value
date of the transaction. The Partnership=s credit risk in the event of
counterparty default is typically limited to the amounts recognized in the
statement of financial condition and not represented by the contract or notional
amounts of the instruments.
The General Partner monitors and controls the Partnership's risk
exposure on a daily basis through financial, credit and risk management
monitoring systems and, accordingly believes that it has effective procedures
for evaluating and limiting the credit and market risks to which the Partnership
is subject. These monitoring systems allow the General Partner to statistically
analyze actual trading results with risk adjusted performance indicators and
correlation statistics. In addition, on-line monitoring systems provide account
analysis of futures, forwards and options positions by sector, margin
requirements, gain and loss transactions and collateral positions.
The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments, while not
recorded in the financial statements, reflect the extent of the Partnership's
involvement in these instruments. The majority of these instruments mature
within one year of March 31, 2000. However, due to the nature of the
Partnership's business, these instruments may not be held to maturity.

<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Partnership does not engage in the sale of goods or services. Its
only assets are its equity in its commodity futures trading account, consisting
of cash and cash equivalents, net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open
futures and forward contracts, commodity options and interest receivable.
Because of the low margin deposits normally required in commodity futures
trading, relatively small price movements may result in substantial losses to
the Partnership. While substantial losses could lead to a decrease in liquidity,
no such losses occurred in the first quarter of 2000.
The Partnership's capital consists of the capital contributions of the
partners as increased or decreased by gains or losses on commodity futures
trading, expenses, interest income, redemptions and distributions of profits, if
any.
For the three months ended March 31, 2000, Partnership capital
decreased 18.4% from $2,632,841 to $2,148,731. This decrease was attributable to
the redemption of 22,908.0343 Units totaling $255,798 coupled with a net loss
from operations of $228,312 for the three months ended March 31, 2000. Future
redemptions can impact the amount of funds available for investments in
commodity contract positions in subsequent periods.
Results of Operations
During the Partnership's first quarter of 2000, the net asset value per
unit decreased 8.8% from $12.11 to $11.04 as compared to an increase of 8.3% in
the first quarter of 1999. The Partnership experienced a net trading loss before
brokerage commissions and related fees in the first quarter of 2000 of $201,737.
Losses were primarily attributable to the trading of commodity futures and
forwards in Japanese Yen, Euro, Singapore dollar, Canadian dollar and Indonesian
Rupia and were partially offset by gains in Australian dollar and Greek Drachma.
The Partnership experienced a net trading gain before commissions and related
fees in the first quarter of 1999 of $320,484. Gains were primarily attributable
to the trading of commodity futures and forwards in Euro, Greek Drachma, Czech
Korona, and Brazilian Real and and were were partially offset by losses in the
Japanese Yen, Pound Sterling, Mexican Peso, New Zealand dollar and Hong Kong
dollar.
9
<PAGE>
Commodity futures markets are highly volatile. Broad price fluctuations
and rapid inflation increase the risks involved in commodity trading, but also
increase the possibility of profit. The profitability of the Partnership depends
on the existence of major price trends and the ability of the Advisors to
identify correctly those price trends. Price trends are influenced by, among
other things, changing supply and demand relationships, weather, governmental,
agricultural, commercial and trade programs and policies, national and
international political and economic events and changes in interest rates. To
the extent that market trends exist and the Advisors are able to identify them,
the Partnership expects to increase capital through operations.
Interest income on 85% of the Partnership's daily equity maintained in
cash was earned at the monthly average 13-week U.S. Treasury Bill yield.
Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2000 decreased by $3,571 as
compared to the corresponding period in 1999.
Brokerage commissions are calculated on the adjusted net asset value on
the last day of each month and, therefore, vary according to trading performance
and redemptions. Accordingly, they must be compared in relation to the
fluctuations in the monthly net asset values. Commissions and fees for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 decreased by $18,444 as compared to the
corresponding period in 1999.
Incentive fees are based on the new trading profits generated by each
Advisor as defined in the advisory agreements between the Partnership, the
General Partner and each Advisor. There were no incentive fees paid for the
three months ended March 31, 2000. Trading performance for the three months
ended March 31, 1999 resulted in incentive fees of $15,931.
10
<PAGE>
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures of Market Risk
The Partnership is a speculative commodity pool. The market sensitive
instruments held by it are acquired for speculative trading purposes, and all or
substantially all of the Partnership's assets are subject to the risk of trading
loss. Unlike an operating company, the risk of market sensitive instruments is
integral, not incidental, to the Partnership's main line of business.
Market movements result in frequent changes in the fair market value of
the Partnership's open positions and, consequently, in its earnings and cash
flow. The Partnership's market risk is influenced by a wide variety of factors,
including the level and volatility of interest rates, exchange rates, equity
price levels, the market value of financial instruments and contracts, the
diversification effects among the Partnership's open positions and the liquidity
of the markets in which it trades.
The Partnership rapidly acquires and liquidates both long and short
positions in a wide range of different markets. Consequently, it is not possible
to predict how a particular future market scenario will affect performance, and
the Partnership's past performance is not necessarily indicative of its future
results.
Value at Risk is a measure of the maximum amount which the Partnership
could reasonably be expected to lose in a given market sector. However, the
inherent uncertainty of the Partnership's speculative trading and the recurrence
in the markets traded by the Partnership of market movements far exceeding
expectations could result in actual trading or non-trading losses far beyond the
indicated Value at Risk or the Partnership's experience to date (i.e., "risk of
ruin"). In light of the foregoing as well as the risks and uncertainties
intrinsic to all future projections, the inclusion of the quantification
included in this section should not be considered to constitute any assurance or
representation that the Partnership's losses in any market sector will be
limited to Value at Risk or by the Partnership's attempts to manage its market
risk.
Exchange maintenance margin requirements have been used by the
Partnership as the measure of its Value at Risk. Maintenance margin requirements
are set by exchanges to equal or exceed the maximum losses reasonably expected
to be incurred in the fair value of any given contract in 95%-99% of any one-day
intervals. Maintenance margin has been used rather than the more generally
available initial margin, because initial margin includes a credit risk
component, which is not relevant to Value at Risk.
11
<PAGE>
The following table indicates the trading Value at Risk associated
with the Partnership's open positions by market category as of March 31, 2000.
At March 31, 2000 there were no open positions held. The Partnership's total
capitalization at March 31, 2000 was $2,148,731. There has been no material
change in the trading value at risk information previously disclosed in the Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999.

1999 (File No. 1-4346), which description is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this
Form 10-Q and incorporated by reference herein. In April 2000, the U.S. Supreme
Court heard oral argument on plaintiffs' petition to reverse the decision of the
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit. The U.S. Supreme Court reserved
its decision, and has not yet released its opinion.
For information concerning the complaints filed in the U.S. District Court for
the Eastern District of Louisiana (Board of Liquidations, City Debt of the City
of New Orleans v. Smith Barney, Inc. et ano. and The City of New Orleans v.
Smith Barney, Inc. et ano.), a purported class action in Florida against
numerous broker-dealers including the Company (Dwight Brock as Clerk for Collier
County v. Merrill Lynch, et al.), and the IRS and SEC industry-wide
investigation into the pricing of Treasury securities in advanced refunding
transactions, see the description that appears in the fourth, fifth and sixth

Exhibit 99.1
Second and third paragraphs under the caption "Legal Proceedings" beginning on
page 11 of the Annual Report on Form 10-K of SSBHI for the year ended December
31, 1999 (File No. 1-4346).
In September 1992, Harris Trust and Savings Bank (as trustee for Ameritech
Pension Trust ("APT")), Ameritech Corporation, and an officer of Ameritech filed
suit against Salomon Brothers Inc. ("SBI") and Salomon Brothers Realty
Corporation ("SBRC") in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of
Illinois (Harris Trust Savings Bank, not individually but solely as trustee for
the Ameritech Pension Trust, Ameritech Corporation and John A. Edwardson v.
Salomon Brothers Inc and Salomon Brothers Realty Corp.). The second amended
complaint alleges that three purchases by APT from defendants of participation
interests in net cash flow or resale proceeds of three portfolios of motels
owned by Motels of America, Inc. ("MOA"), as well as a fourth purchase by APT of
a similar participation interest in a portfolio of motels owned by Best Inns,
Inc. ("Best"), violated the Employee Retirement Income Security Act ("ERISA"),
and that APT's purchase of the participation interests in the third MOA
portfolio and in the Best portfolio violated the Racketeer Influenced and
Corrupt Organization Act ("RICO") and the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive
Practices Act ("Consumer Fraud Act"), and constituted fraud, negligent
misrepresentation, breach of contract and unjust enrichment. SBI had acquired
the participation interests when it purchased principal mortgage notes issued by
MOA and Best to finance purchases of motel portfolios; 95% of three of those
interests and 100% of the fourth were sold to APT for a total of approximately
$20.9 million. Plaintiffs' second amended complaint seeks judgment (a) on the
ERISA claims for the approximately $20.9 million purchase price, for rescission
and for disgorgement of profits, as well as other relief, and (b) on the RICO
and state law claims in the amount of $12.3 million, with damages trebled to $37
million on the RICO claims and punitive damages in excess of $37 million on
certain of the state law claims as well as other relief. Following motions by
defendants, the court dismissed the RICO, Consumer Fraud Act, fraud, negligent
misrepresentation, breach of contract, and unjust enrichment claims. The court
also found that defendants were not ERISA fiduciaries and dismissed two of the
three claims based on that allegation. Defendants moved for summary judgment on
plaintiffs' only remaining claim, which alleged an ERISA violation. The motion
was denied, and defendants appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh
Circuit. In July 1999, the U. S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit
reversed the denial of defendants' motion for summary judgment and dismissed the
sole remaining ERISA claim against the Company. Plaintiffs filed a petition for
certiorari with the U. S. Supreme Court seeking review of the decision of the
Court of Appeals. The petition was granted in January 2000.

Both the Department of Labor and the Internal Revenue Service have advised SBI
that they were or are reviewing the underlying transactions. With respect to the
Internal Revenue Service, SSBHI, SBI and SBRC have consented to extensions of
time for the assessment of excise taxes that may be claimed with respect to the
transactions for the years 1987, 1988 and 1989. In August 1996, the IRS sent
SSBHI, SBI and SBRC what appeared to be draft "30-day letters" with respect to
the transactions and SSBHI, SBI and SBRC were given an opportunity to comment on
whether the IRS should issue 30-day letters, which would actually commence the
assessment process. In October 1996, SSBHI, SBI and SBRC submitted a memorandum
setting forth reasons why the IRS should not issue such 30-day letters. Since
that time, the IRS has not issued such 30-day letters to SSBHI, SBI or SBRC.
