BT Investment Money Market Fund
Letter to Shareholders
We are pleased to present you with this annual report for the BT Investment
Money Market Fund (the "Fund"), providing a detailed review of the market, the
Portfolio, and our outlook. Included are a complete financial summary of the
Fund's operations and a listing of the Portfolio's holdings.
MARKET ACTIVITY
Three major factors impacted the money markets over the annual period ended
December 31, 1999-the ongoing extraordinary performance of the U.S. economy, the
actions of the Federal Reserve Board, and the liquidity concerns surrounding
Y2K. These factors combined to push yields on short-term money market securities
significantly higher.
Rapid U.S. economic growth, benign inflation, the lowest unemployment rate in a
generation, and a spectacular runup in the U.S. equity market gave consumers the
confidence necessary to utilize their purchasing power.
o Housing, retail sales, and auto sales were all at historic levels.
o Subdued wage demands, competitive pressures, productivity improvements and
global overcapacity combined to keep prices in check.
o Simultaneously, foreign economies around the world showed clear signs of
recovery, with growth rates in Europe and Asia, in particular, increasing
throughout the year.
The Federal Reserve Board raised interest rates three times during 1999.
o The Federal Reserve Board argued that the pace of the economy could not be
indefinitely supported by labor force growth and productivity and thus may
rekindle inflation.
o Consequently, on June 30, August 24, and November 16, the Federal Reserve
Board raised interest rates by 0.25% each time, leaving the targeted federal
funds rate at 5.50% at the end of the year.
Ratings(2)
S&P: AAA
Moody's: AAA
Money market investors and issuers alike believed liquidity would be scarce over
year-end, as anticipation of Y2K grew increasingly uncertain over the last
quarter of 1999.
o Both corporate and asset-backed issuers flooded the market with paper early in
the fourth quarter, hoping to secure their year-end financing.
o To calm the markets, the Fed announced in October that it would provide the
market with several liquidity programs, including a repurchase agreement
facility with expanded collateral guidelines and a Standby Financing Facility.
o As with most other secular Y2K fears, the money markets' liquidity concerns
also turned out to be for naught.
Status at December 31, 1999
Seven day effective yield: 5.77%
Average maturity: 39 days
Net assets: $720.4 million
INVESTMENT REVIEW
By staying disciplined to the purchase of high quality instruments and
actively adjusting sector allocation and the duration of the Portfolio as
market conditions changed, we were able to produce highly competitive yields
in the Investment Money Market Fund.
Through most of the first half of the year, we maintained a slightly long to the
benchmark weighted average maturity position, taking advantage of the steeper
yield curve and neutral Federal Reserve Board. Since the money markets had
already priced in at least one interest rate hike by the time the Fed actually
raised rates for the first time at the end of June, we were able to take
advantage of the higher rates and extend the portfolio at that time.
During the second half of the year, money market issuers were very aggressive,
seeking to extend their maturities into the year 2000 to avoid potential Y2K
problems. This excessive issuance caused both an abnormally steep yield curve in
fixed rate securities and wide yield spreads on floating rate notes. We took
advantage of both - as well as the two Fed rate

(1) Past performance is not indicative of future results. Yields will vary.
Yields quoted for money market funds most closely reflect the fund's current
earnings. An investment in a money market fund is not insured or guaranteed
by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.
Although money market funds seek to maintain a share value of $1.00 per
share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund. "Current
yield" refers to the income generated by an investment in the Fund over a
7-day period. This income is then "annualized." The "effective yield" is
calculated similarly but, when annualized, the income earned by an
investment in the Fund is assumed to be reinvested. The "effective yield"
will be slightly higher than the "current yield" because of the compounding
effect of this assumed reinvestment.

increases in the second half - by "barbelling" the portfolio with fixed
securities and floating rate instruments. This strategy proved to be effective
for the Portfolio. We also successfully maintained the liquidity necessary for
potential Y2K problems by purchasing Treasury bills and other very liquid
instruments during the last quarter of 1999.
MANAGER OUTLOOK
We now know that the concerns and fears surrounding Y2K turned out to be a
non-event. The world at large and the financial markets in particular continued
to hum along without interruption. Looking ahead for the near term, we believe
the U.S. economy still has substantial momentum, and the financial fundamentals
for both households and businesses remain strong. Thus, we also feel that it
will take somewhat higher interest rates to tone down the economy. The Federal
Reserve Board could, in our view, continue to increase rates in the first half
of the year 2000, as it seeks to slow real economic growth to a more sustainable
pace.
Clearly, then, the degree of tightening and the timing of the Federal Reserve
Board's next moves will be key to U.S. money market performance in the months
ahead. So, too, will supply and demand factors.
We will likely manage the BT Investment Money Market Fund with a shorter
duration than we did in 1999. We also intend to maintain a significant
position in floating rate securities in this Fund to take advantage of any
further increases in interest rates.
We will, of course, continue to closely observe economic conditions and how they
affect the financial markets, as we seek to provide high current income
consistent with liquidity and capital preservation.
As always, we appreciate your ongoing support of the BT Investment Money Market
Fund, and we look forward to continuing to serve your investment needs for many
years ahead.

BT Investment Money Market Fund
Notes to Financial Statements
Note 1--Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
A. Organization
BT Pyramid Mutual Funds (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (the "Act"), as amended, as an open-end management investment
company. The Trust was organized on February 28, 1992, as an unincorporated
business trust under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The BT
Investment Money Market Fund (the "Fund") is one of the investment funds offered
to investors by the Trust. The Fund began operations and offering shares of
beneficial interest on July 15, 1992. The Fund invests substantially all of its
assets in the Cash Management Portfolio (the "Portfolio"). The Portfolio is an
open-end management investment company registered under the Act. The value of
the Fund's investment in the Portfolio reflects its proportionate interest in
the net assets of the Portfolio. At December 31, 1999, the Fund's investment was
approximately 12% of the Portfolio.
The financial statements of the Portfolio, including a list of assets held, are
contained elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the
Fund's financial statements.
B. Security Valuation
Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is discussed in Note 1B of the
Portfolio's Notes to Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this
report.
C. Investment Income
The Fund earns income, net of expenses, daily on its investment in the
Portfolio. All of the net investment income and realized and unrealized gains
and losses from the security transactions of the Portfolio are allocated pro
rata among the investors in the Portfolio at the time of such determination.
D. Distributions
It is the Fund's policy to declare dividends daily and pay them monthly to
shareholders from net investment income. Dividends and distributions payable to
shareholders are recorded by the Fund on the ex-dividend date. Distribution of
net realized short-term and long-term capital gains, if any, earned by the Fund
will be made annually to the extent they exceed capital loss carryforwards.
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 distribute its
taxable income to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is
required.
F. Other
The Trust accounts separately for the assets, liabilities, and operations of
each of its funds. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that
fund, while expenses that are attributable to all of the Trust's funds are
allocated among them.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
Note 2--Fees and Transactions with Affiliates
The Fund has entered into an Administration and Services Agreement with Bankers
Trust Company ("Bankers Trust"), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Deutsche
Bank AG. Under this agreement, Bankers Trust provides administrative, custody,
transfer agency and shareholder services to the Fund in return for a fee
computed daily and paid monthly at an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average
daily net assets.
Bankers Trust has contractually agreed to waive its fees through April 30,
2000 and reimburse expenses of the Fund, to the extent necessary, to limit
all expenses to .17% of the average daily net assets of the Fund, excluding
expenses of the Portfolio and .35% of the average daily net assets of the Fund,
including expenses of the Portfolio.
ICC Distributors, Inc. provides distribution services to the Fund.
In 1996, Bankers Trust contributed capital in the amount of $562,004 to
reimburse the Fund for capital losses incurred in prior years. The Fund's 1996
Financial Highlights reflect this information.
Note 3--Capital Loss Carryforward
At December 31, 1999, capital loss carryforwards available as a reduction
against future net realized capital gains consisted of $296,236 which will
expire in 2002, and $4,211 which will expire in 2005.

BT Investment Money Market Fund
Report of Independent Accountants
To the Trustees of BT Pyramid Mutual Funds and
Shareholders of BT Investment Money Market Fund
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
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 the BT Investment Money Market Fund (one of the Funds comprising BT
Pyramid Mutual Funds, hereafter referred to as the "Fund") at December 31, 1999,
and the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the
financial highlights for each of the fiscal periods presented, in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States, 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 December 31, 1999 by correspondence with the transfer agent,
provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

Cash Management Portfolio
Notes to Financial Statements
Note 1--Organization and Significant Accounting Policies.
A. Organization
The Cash Management Portfolio (the "Portfolio") is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Act"), as amended, as an open-end
management investment company. The Portfolio was organized on March 26, 1990, as
an unincorporated trust under the laws of New York, and began operations on July
23, 1990. The Declaration of Trust permits the Board of Trustees (the
"Trustees") to issue beneficial interests in the Portfolio.
B. Security Valuation
Investments are valued at amortized cost, which is in accordance with Rule 2a-7
of the Investment Company Act of 1940 and represents the fair value of the
Portfolio's investments.
C. Security Transactions and Interest Income
Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest income
is recorded on the accrual basis and includes amortization of premium and
accretion of discount on investments. Realized gains and losses from securities
transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis.
All of the net investment income and realized and unrealized gains and losses
from the security transactions of the Portfolio are allocated pro rata among the
investors in the Portfolio at the time of such determination.
D. Repurchase Agreements
The Portfolio may enter into repurchase agreements with financial institutions
deemed to be creditworthy by the Portfolio's Investment Advisor, subject to the
seller's agreement to repurchase such securities at a mutually agreed upon
price. Securities purchased subject to repurchase agreements are deposited with
the Portfolio's custodian, and pursuant to the terms of the repurchase agreement
must have an aggregate market value greater than or equal to the repurchase
price plus accrued interest at all times. If the value of the underlying
securities falls below the value of the repurchase price plus accrued interest,
the Portfolio requires the seller to deposit additional collateral by the next
business day. If the request for additional collateral is not met, or the seller
defaults on its repurchase obligation, the Portfolio maintains the right to sell
the underlying securities at market value and may claim any resulting loss
against the seller. However, in the event of a default or bankruptcy by the
seller, realization and/or retention of the collateral may be subject to legal
proceedings.
E. Federal Income Taxes
The Portfolio is considered a Partnership under the Internal Revenue Code.
Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.
F. Other
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
Note 2--Fees and Transactions with Affiliates
The Portfolio has entered into an Administration and Services Agreement with
Bankers Trust Company ("Bankers Trust"), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of
Deutsche Bank AG. Under this agreement, Bankers Trust provides administrative,
custody, transfer agency and shareholder services to the Portfolio in return for
a fee computed daily and paid monthly at an annual rate of .05% of the
Portfolio's average daily net assets.
The Portfolio has entered into an Advisory Agreement with Bankers Trust. Under
this agreement, the Portfolio pays Bankers Trust a fee computed daily and paid
monthly at an annual rate of .15% of the Portfolio's average daily net assets.
Bankers Trust has contractually agreed through April, 30, 2000 to waive its fees
and reimburse expenses of the Portfolio, to the extent necessary, to limit all
expenses to .18% of the average daily net assets of the Portfolio.
In 1996, Bankers Trust contributed capital in the amount of $1,113,488 to
reimburse the Cash Management Portfolio for capital losses incurred in prior
years.
At December 31, 1999, the Portfolio was a participant with other affiliated
entities in a revolving credit facility in the amount of $150,000,000, which
expires April 29, 2000. A commitment fee of .10% per annum on the average daily
amount of the available commitment is payable on a quarterly basis and
apportioned equally among all participants. No amounts were drawn down or
outstanding for this fund under the credit facility for the year ended December
31, 1999.

Cash Management Portfolio
Report of Independent Accountants
To the Trustees and Holders of Beneficial Interest of
Cash Management Portfolio
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolio 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 the Cash Management Portfolio
(hereafter referred to as the "Portfolio") at December 31, 1999, and the results
of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights
for each of the fiscal periods presented, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States. These financial statements
and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are
the responsibility of the Portfolio'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 auditing
standards generally accepted in the United States, 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
December 31, 1999 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a
reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
