CUFUND
THE CREDIT UNION FAMILY OF FUNDS
To Our Shareholders:
CUFUND, the Credit Union Family of Funds, has been serving natural person credit
union investment needs since its inception in June 1992. During this eight-year
period, the Short-Term Maturity Portfolio and the Adjustable Rate Portfolio have
given credit unions an excellent investment option.
CUFUND remains unique among mutual funds as it is the only mutual fund to be
advised by a company that is a wholly-owned subsidiary (CUSO) of a credit union.
As a result, CUFUND is uniquely positioned to respond to the concerns and
changes of natural person credit unions, as well as the continually changing
regulatory environment. As the regulatory environment becomes more complex, we
believe that the flexibility and investment expertise inherent to the portfolios
of CUFUND will allow credit unions to continue to take advantage of all types of
securities available to them in one easy package.
CUFUND has maintained a strong performance record since its inception. It has
been our pleasure, the adviser, the administrator, and the distributor, to offer
CUFUND. We thank all credit unions for their support of and participation in
CUFUND.
Sincerely
/s/signature
Mark E. Nagle
President

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS OF FUND PERFORMANCE
GENERAL MARKET COMMENT JULY 7, 2000
The interest rate environment in the second quarter of 2000 has consisted of
slightly higher short term treasury rates and lower long term rates. The yield
curve is now inverted 60 basis points from Fed Funds to the 30 year note. The
Federal Open Market Committee left the Fed Funds rate target unchanged at their
last meeting, but not before tightening 50 basis points at their May 16 meeting.
Fed Funds rate hikes in this cycle of tightening now total 175 basis points
since June 30 of last year. The speculative trading, centered around potential
treasury refundings in 30 year maturities we experienced in the last quarter,
has begun to find its way into shorter maturities, but to a much lesser extent.
We also experienced a small flight to quality as money invested in the stock
market made its way to the safe haven of treasuries amid concerns of further Fed
action. This situation has begun to unwind as the current consensus calls for a
50% chance of one more Fed move to "tweak" the economy at most. We believe the
Fed is finished for the remainder of the year. The two year note yield closed
the quarter at 6.37% off of it's high of 6.91% on May 18. Looking forward, we
think the two year note will settle into a range of 6.35% to 6.75%.
SHORT-TERM MATURITY PORTFOLIO
The investment objective of the Short-Term Maturity Portfolio is to seek a high
level of income consistent with safety of capital. The primary investment
strategy undertaken by the adviser has been a modified "buy and hold" strategy.
The assets of the Portfolio are distributed between U.S. Agency and various
mortgage backed securities (MBS). The average weighted maturity is less than two
years.
The adviser will seek to continue to reinvest this and future principal paydowns
as opportunities arise. The effective duration of 1.46% is up from 1.21% at our
last report. During the quarter, $2.218 million was invested in PAC CMOs with
average lives ranging from 2 to 3 years, $1.480 million was invested in PAC CMOs
with average lives ranging from 1 to 2 years, and 3.0 million was invested in
Agency bullets with maturities ranging between 2 and 3 years. An additional
$100,000 was invested in money market PAC CMOs (average life less than one
year). The adviser will continue to manage the fund toward an effective duration
target of between 1.25% and 2.00%, lengthening the duration when warranted by
higher rates. The one year total return on June 30, 2000 was 5.07%, which is up
from 4.24% on May 31 and 4.00% at our last report. This performance compares
favorably to other funds in the peer group. The net asset value per share closed
at $9.80 on June 30, 2000, which is up from $9.76 on May 31 and from $9.77 on
March 31, 2000.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS OF FUND PERFORMANCE
ADJUSTABLE RATE PORTFOLIO
The investment objective of the Adjustable Rate Portfolio is to maximize returns
in the variable rate market while maintaining safety of capital. The primary
investment strategy undertaken by the adviser has been a modified "buy and hold"
strategy. The assets of the Portfolio are distributed between U.S. Agency, U.S.
Treasury and various mortgage backed securities (MBS).
The Fund closed the quarter at .41% effective duration, which is essentially
unchanged from March 31. At June 30, 2000, approximately 68% of the Portfolio
was invested in adjustable rate MBSs, 2% of the Portfolio was cash or
equivalents, while 30% was fixed rate PAC CMOs. The cash position was unchanged
while the fixed rate PAC CMO position was down from 32%. During the quarter,
$7.872 million of LIBOR CMO Floaters and $8.377 million of money market PAC CMOs
(average life less than 1 year) were purchased. Of these investments, $5.932
million was invested in whole loan products. The adviser continues to monitor
the ARM market for value, but has avoided this type of product in recent months
due to the high premium dollar prices associated with investments of this type.
The net asset value per share of the Portfolio of $9.88 on June 30 was up from
$9.85 on May 31 and $9.86 on March 31. Total return for the one year period
ending June 30, 2000 was 5.10%, which is up from 4.65% on May 31 and 4.27% at
our last report. In the coming quarter, the adviser will continue to attempt to
increase duration and yield in fairly valued sectors of the adjustable rate
market while focusing on maintaining a stable net asset value and minimizing
prepayment risk.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CUFUND
May 31, 2000
1. Organization:
CUFUND (the "Trust") was organized as a Massachusetts business trust under a
Declaration of Trust dated November 22, 1991 and had no operations through June
14, 1992 other than those related to organizational matters and the sale of
initial shares of beneficial interest to SEI Investments Mutual Funds Services
(the "Administrator") on January 16, 1992.
The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as
a diversified open-end investment company with two portfolios: the Short-Term
Maturity Portfolio and the Adjustable Rate Portfolio (the "Portfolios"). The
Trust's prospectus provides a description of each Portfolio's investment
objectives, policies and strategies.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
SECURITIES VALUATION--Pursuant to policies established by the Board of
Trustees of the Trust, the Administrator values the securities of each
Portfolio based upon valuations provided by brokers or an independent
pricing service. The pricing services rely primarily on prices of actual
market transactions as well as trader quotations. However, the service may
also use a matrix system to determine valuations of fixed income
securities, which considers such factors as security prices, yields,
maturities, call features, ratings and developments relating to specific
securities in arriving at valuation. Debt obligations with sixty days or
less remaining until maturity may be valued at their amortized cost.
Investment securities for which market prices are either (i) not readily
available or not obtained, or (ii) deemed by the Adviser to be materially
inaccurate, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under
procedures established by the Board of Trustees.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INCOME--Security transactions are
accounted for on the trade date of the security purchase or sale. Costs
used in determining net realized capital gains and losses on the sale of
securities are those of the specific securities sold, adjusted for the
accretion and amortization of purchase discounts and premiums during the
respective holding period. Gains and losses realized on sales of securities
are determined on a first-in first-out (FIFO) basis. Interest income and
expenses are recognized on the accrual basis. Purchase discounts and
premiums are accreted and amortized over the life of each security and
recorded as interest income using a method which approximates the effective
interest method.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS--Distributions of net investment income for
each Portfolio are declared daily and paid monthly on the first business
day. Any net realized capital gains will be distributed at least annually.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES--The Trust's policy is to comply with the requirements
of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies
and to distribute all of its taxable income and net capital gains to its
shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes is
required in the financial statements.
USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--The
preparation of financial statements, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States, requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
OTHER--Expenses that are directly related to one of the Portfolios are
charged directly to that Portfolio. Other operating expenses of the Trust
are prorated to the Portfolios on the basis of relative net assets.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (concluded) CUFUND
May 31, 2000
3. Administrative and Distribution Agreements:
The Trust and the Administrator are parties to an administrative agreement dated
May 1, 1992, under which the Administrator provides services for a fee that is
computed daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate which is the greater of
.09% of the average daily net assets of the Trust up to $750 million, and .0725%
of the average daily net assets of the Trust exceeding $750 million, or
$214,000. Effective October 26, 1998, the minimum annual fee of $214,000 was
increased to $250,000. Certain officers of the Trust are also officers of the
Administrator and/or distributor. Such officers are paid no fees by the Trust
for serving in their respective roles.
SEI Investments Distribution Co. (the "Distributor") acts as the distributor of
the shares of the Trust. No compensation is paid to the Distributor for
distribution services.
4. Investment Advisory and Custodian Agreements:
The Trust and CuSource, LLC (the "Adviser") are parties to an investment
advisory agreement dated May 1, 1992, under which the Adviser receives an annual
fee, which is calculated daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of .32% of
the average daily net assets of each Portfolio. The Adviser has voluntarily
agreed to waive all or a portion of its fees and reimburse expenses in order to
limit the total operating expenses of each Portfolio to not more than .39% of
each Portfolio's average daily net assets. The Adviser reserves the right, in
its sole discretion, to terminate this voluntary fee waiver at any time. At May
31, 2000, the Adviser is the record owner of 83.92% and 90.16% of the
outstanding shares of the Short-Term Maturity and Adjustable Rate Portfolios,
respectively.
The Trust and First Union National Bank, (the "Custodian") are parties to a
custodial agreement dated May 1, 1992 under which the Custodian holds cash,
securities and other assets of the Trust as required by the Investment Company
Act of 1940. The Custodian plays no role in determining the investment policies
of the Trust or which securities are to be purchased or sold in the Portfolios.
5. Investment Transactions:
For the year ended May 31, 2000, purchases and sales of investment securities
and United States Government Obligations (other than short-term securities) were
as follows (000):
U.S. GOVERNMENT OTHER INVESTMENT

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CUFUND

7. Variable Rate Financial Instruments:
The Adjustable Rate Portfolio's investment policies include investing, under
normal circumstances, at least 65% of its assets in adjustable rate mortgage
securities or other adjustable rate securities that have interest rates that
reset at periodic intervals. Such securities may experience less price
volatility due to changes in market interest rates than other debt securities.
These investments include securities subject to interest rate caps as well as
certain securities that adjust based upon an index whose movements may not
correlate directly with market movements. Both of these items may influence the
pricing of the security.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Shareholders and
Board of Trustees of CUFUND:
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets of the Short-Term
Maturity and Adjustable Rate Portfolios of CUFUND (the "Trust") as of May 31,
2000, and the related statements of operations, the statements of changes in net
assets, and the financial highlights for the periods presented. These financial
statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Trust's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and
financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of May 31, 2000, by correspondence with the
custodian. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Short-Term Maturity and Adjustable Rate Portfolios of CUFUND as of May 31, 2000,
the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their
net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial
highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
