February 22, 1996
Dear Shareholder:
We appreciate the confidence you have placed in us and are pleased to present
you with the December 31, 1995 Semi- Annual Report for the U.S. Balanced Fund,
the U.S. Equity Fund and the U.S. Bond Fund. This Report presents our current
U.S. economic and market outlook, as well as the Funds' recent investment
strategies and performance. To summarize this information:
U.S. Balanced Fund
The Brinson U.S. Balanced Fund paid a dividend of $0.851 per share on December
29, 1995 to shareholders of record on December 20, 1995.
For the period from December 31, 1994 (performance inception date) to December
31, 1995, the Fund has provided a total return of 25.48%. In the second half of
1995, the Fund returned 10.16%.
The Fund's market allocation has been characterized by an underweight in the
U.S. equity market and an overweight to the U.S. bond market.
U.S. Equity Fund
The Brinson U.S. Equity Fund paid a dividend of $0.359 per share on December
29, 1995 to shareholders of record on December 20, 1995.
For the period from February 28, 1994 (performance inception date) to December
31, 1995, the Fund provided an annualized total return of 19.34%. In 1995, the
Fund returned 40.58%. The Fund returned 17.39% in the second half of the year.
Fund strategy presently maintains an above average exposure to stocks with high
earnings/price measures and an overweight of intermediate versus large
capitalization issues relative to the benchmark. The Fund also possesses a
meaningful exposure toward economically-sensitive and financially-leveraged
stocks and an underweight with respect to companies with foreign earnings and
relative strength.
U.S. Bond Fund
The Brinson U.S. Bond Fund paid a dividend of $0.237 per share on December 29,
1995 to shareholders of record on December 20, 1995.
For the period from August 31, 1995 (performance inception date) to December
31, 1995, the Fund returned 5.49%.
With intermediate and long term interest rates within the range of our
estimates of fair value, the Fund's current investment strategy involves near
neutral duration and yield curve exposure.
We look forward to the challenges ahead and, as always, welcome your comments
and suggestions.
Sincerely,
/s/ Gary P. Brinson, CFA

U.S. ECONOMIC AND MARKET HIGHLIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGO
The economy has settled into a moderate but uneven growth path. Real GDP growth
slowed in the first half of this year, but picked up in the third quarter.
Consumer price inflation remains modest, with year-on-year growth in the CPI
running below 3.0%. There was some upward pressure in the first half of the
year, which can be characterized as an effect of the strong growth at the end
of last year. Price pressures going forward should remain subdued.
Congressional debate is centered on reducing the size of the federal budget
deficit. The main contention is the length of time in which balance should be
achieved. Anticipation of deficit reduction has taken pressure off real
interest rates.

U.S. BALANCED FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGO
The U.S. Balanced Fund is an actively managed, diversified portfolio that
provides integrated asset management across and within U.S. stocks, bonds and
cash. The investment process is strategic in nature and is driven by deviations
of market price from fundamental value. This philosophy offers the greatest
potential for achieving enhanced long-term returns, while controlling risk.
The Brinson U.S. Balanced Fund produced a total return of 25.48% for the year
ended December 31, 1995, compared to the U.S. Balanced Index return of 29.45%.
In the second half of 1995, the Fund returned 10.16% compared to the benchmark
return of 11.59%. The U.S. Balanced Index is a fixed weight composite of 65%
Wilshire 5000 Equity Index and 35% Salomon Brothers Broad Investment Grade Bond
Index. Security selection within equities contributed positively to relative
performance, while underweighting equities and overweighting bonds contributed
negatively.
At the start of 1995, the Federal Reserve raised its target for the Fed Funds
rate by 50 basis points, after increasing it more than 250 basis points the
previous year. These rate hikes produced enough signs of slowing growth and
sluggish inflationary pressure that the Fed reversed course and provided two
small rate cuts later in the year.
Bonds performed well in the low inflation environment. Considerable declines in
long yields caused the yield curve to become almost horizontal toward the end
of the year. Long bonds provided excellent returns as a result. With rates
declining over most of the curve, the bond market moved from undervalued to a
position approximating fundamental value. At the short end, values are still in
excess of price, but at the long end price and value are very close.
Lower interest rates also benefited several sectors of the U.S. equity market,
in particular bank and insurance stocks. The equity market was buoyed by a
large number of positive earnings surprises, and earnings growth continued at a
double-digit pace. The equity component of the Fund was helped by an overweight
in bank stocks and by favorable market response to consolidation in several
overweighted industries.
With equity prices rising through the year, the market's overvaluation
persisted at about 20%. At year-end, asset allocation strategy involves
underweighting the overvalued equity market and overweighting the relatively
attractive bond market. Duration strategy is approximately neutral as bond
prices, except at the short end, are within the range of our fundamental value
estimates.

U.S. EQUITY FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGO
The U.S. Equity Fund is an actively managed portfolio of common stocks selected
from the total universe of public, domestic issues.
For the period February 28, 1994 to December 31, 1995, the Brinson U.S. Equity
Fund provided a total return of 19.34% compared to its benchmark, the Wilshire
5000 Index, return of 17.90%. For the year ended December 31, 1995, the Fund
returned 40.58%, while the benchmark returned 36.45%. The total return of the
U.S. Equity Fund was 17.39% for the second six months of 1995, compared to the
14.46% return for the Wilshire 5000 Index. The major factors affecting excess
return so far in 1995 are discussed in the following paragraphs.
The strong excess return of the U.S. Equity Fund in 1995 was attributable to a
number of favorable industry positions. Industry consolidation was a common
theme in many of these positions as strong excess cash flows plus management
focus on strengthening market position and cutting costs catalyzed a wave of
mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures across corporate America. One of the
most favorable of these industry positions was the weighting in
defense/aerospace. This group benefited from a number of positive factors in
1995, including a stabilization of the downtrend in defense budget
appropriations, strong takeover activity among defense industry participants,
and an upturn in commercial aircraft orders. Lockheed Martin, one of the larger
portfolio positions, was a notable beneficiary of these trends, particularly as
a result of the merger of Martin Marietta and Lockheed earlier in the year.
This combination promises to produce a materially stronger, more profitable
competitor. Other meaningful holdings in this industry were Boeing, which
enjoyed a strong flow of new orders, especially from overseas, and Honeywell,
which has a leading market position in avionics for both commercial and defense
aircraft.
An overweighting in bank stocks also added to results. Continued improvement in
credit quality, lower interest rates, strong loan demand and heightened merger
activity were all contributors to bank earnings and stock valuations in 1995.
Bank holdings included Citicorp, Chase Manhattan, U.S. Bancorp, Comerica,
BayBanks, State Street and Magna Group.
Insurance was another industry that benefited from a confluence of favorable
fundamental factors in 1995, including lower inflation and interest rates as
well as reduced claims trends, particularly regarding environmental
liabilities. In addition, many insurance company managements took action to
refocus their companies on core strengths in recent years by eliminating less
profitable lines of business. The U.S. Equity Fund was well represented in the
insurance industry last year with important positions in Cigna, Aon,
TransAmerica, Aetna, Old Republic, Allstate and USF&G.
The consolidation theme was also evident in several other important individual
stock contributors to portfolio results. Burlington Northern is particularly
noteworthy in this regard, as the combination with Santa Fe Pacific promises to
produce very large cost savings and other synergies. In addition, Kimberly
Clark was a standout performer following the Scott Paper acquisition
announcement, as the combined company promises to be a better positioned, more
profitable, global entity. Finally, First Financial Management, a credit card
transaction processing company, was acquired by First Data Corp. in a highly
complementary merger.

U.S. BOND FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGO
The U.S. Bond Fund is an actively managed portfolio of debt securities selected
from a wide range of maturities and market sectors.
The Brinson U.S. Bond Fund produced a return of 5.49% since its inception on
August 31, 1995 compared to the Salomon Brothers Broad Investment Grade (BIG)
Bond Index return of 5.32%.
Below is a dicussion of the 1995 U.S. Bond market activity, as well as our
outlook for 1996.
At the beginning of 1995, the U.S. economy was coming off a period of above
trend real economic growth. The most recent changes in Federal Reserve policy
were to raise short-term interest rates. Bond markets were priced to reflect
the risk of an acceleration of inflation in a potentially overheated economy.
These expectations were reinforced when the Federal Reserve increased its
target rate on overnight funds from 5.5% to 6.0% at the end of January 1995.
The lagged impact of a restrictive monetary policy was reinforced by a less
expansive fiscal policy as reported federal deficits declined. This was
complemented by events in Mexico and elsewhere that dampened U.S. export
demand. A growing political consensus to move toward a federal budget balance
met a favorable response in the bond market. Over the course of the year,
growth of real economic activity slowed, inflation remained stable, and bond
prices shifted from discounting further Fed tightening to expecting Fed ease.
Responding to an improved inflation outlook, the Federal Reserve cut its
overnight target rates in 25 basis point increments both in July and December.
Yields on intermediate-maturity fixed income securities fell by over 250 basis
points over the year as the front of the yield curve shifted from a steep
positive slope at the beginning of the year to a flat to mildly inverted shape
at year-end. Long-term yields fell about 190 basis points. Corporate bonds
provided the best sector returns as credit risk premiums generally narrowed.
Mortgage backed securities lagged in performance as the large absolute decline
in intermediate yields gave homeowners added incentives to refinance
outstanding higher coupon mortgages.
Our investment strategies early in 1996 involve near neutral duration and yield
curve exposures within the U.S. Bond Fund. Intermediate and long-term interest
rates are within the range of our estimates of fair value. Short-term rates
remain above fair value, and we expect them to decline as Federal Reserve
policy shifts produce further reductions in overnight funds rates. Unlike the
prior two years, when large interest rate shifts first produced negative
returns followed by large positive returns, in 1996 we expect relative
stability in U.S. interest rates, which would result in total returns
comparable to the current yields available to fixed income investors.

THE BRINSON FUNDS -- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Brinson Funds (the "Trust") is an open-end, management investment company
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a series
company. The Trust currently offers shares of ten series: Global Fund, Global
Equity Fund, Global Bond Fund, Short-Term Global Income Fund, U.S. Balanced
Fund, U.S. Equity Fund, U.S. Bond Fund, U.S. Cash Management Fund, Non-U.S.
Equity Fund and Non-U.S. Bond Fund. Each Fund has outstanding two classes of
shares, Brinson class and SwissKey class. There are an unlimited number of
shares of each class with par value of $0.001 authorized. Each share represents
an identical interest in the investments of the Funds and has the same rights.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the U.S. Balanced Fund, U.S. Equity Fund and the U.S. Bond Fund
(each a "Fund," collectively the "Funds") in the preparation of their financial
statements.
A.INVESTMENT VALUATION: Securities for which market quotations are readily
available are valued at the last available sales price on the exchange or
market on which they are principally traded, or lacking any sales, at the last
available bid price on the exchange or market on which such securities are
principally traded. Securities for which market quotations are not readily
available, including restricted securities which are subject to limitations on
their sale, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under
the direction of the Trust's Board of Trustees. Fixed income/debt securities
are valued using market quotations or independent services that use prices
provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield
data relating to instruments or securities with similar characteristics. Short-
term obligations with a maturity of 60 days or less are valued at amortized
cost, which approximates market value.
B.INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS: Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade
date basis. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on an identified
cost basis.
C.INVESTMENT INCOME: Interest income, which includes the amortization of
premiums and discounts, is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income is
recorded on the ex-dividend date.
D.FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: It is the policy of the Funds to comply with all
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") applicable to regulated
investment companies and to distribute substantially all of their taxable
income to their shareholders. The Funds have met the requirements of the Code
applicable to regulated investment companies for the period ended December 31,
1995, therefore, no federal income tax provision was required.
E.ORGANIZATION COSTS: Organization costs are being amortized on a straight-line
basis over five years from each Fund's respective commencement of operations.
F.DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS: It is the policy of the Funds to distribute
their respective net investment income on a semi-annual basis and capital
gains, if any, annually. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-
dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in
accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. Differences in dividends per share between the classes
are due to different class expenses. Amounts equal to 7.21% and 68.68% of the
amount taxable as ordinary income qualify for the dividends received deduction
available to corporate shareholders for the Brinson U.S. Balanced Fund and the
Brinson U.S. Equity Fund, respectively.
G.INCOME AND EXPENSE ALLOCATIONS: All income earned and expenses incurred by
the Fund will be borne on a prorata basis by each of the classes except that
the Brinson class will not incur any of the 12b-1 expenses.

2.INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Brinson Partners, Inc. (the "Advisor"), a registered investment advisor,
provides the Funds with investment management services. As compensation for
these services, each Fund pays the Advisor a monthly fee based on the Fund's
respective average daily net assets. The Advisor has agreed to waive its fees
and reimburse each Fund to the extent total annualized expenses exceed a
specified percentage of each Fund's respective average daily net assets.
Investment advisory fees and other transactions with affiliates for the period
ended December 31, 1995, were as follows:

</TABLE>
Certain officers of the Funds are also officers of the Advisor. All officers
serve without direct compensation from the Funds. Trustees' fees paid to
unaffiliated trustees were $3,623, $2,451 and $3,942 for the U.S. Balanced
Fund, U.S. Equity Fund, and U.S. Bond Fund, respectively.
3.INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
Investment transactions for the period ended December 31, 1995, excluding
short-term investments, were as follows:

U.S. Bond Fund........................................ 26,005,847 17,524,350
</TABLE>
4.FUTURES CONTRACTS
The Funds may purchase or sell exchange-traded futures contracts, which are
contracts that obligate the Funds to make or take delivery of a financial
instrument or the cash value of a securities index at a specified future date
at a specified price. The Funds enter into such contracts to hedge a portion of
their portfolio. Risks of entering into futures contracts include the
possibility that there may be an illiquid market and that a change in the value
of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying
securities. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Funds are required to
deposit either cash or securities in an amount (initial margin) based on the
number of open contracts. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or
received by the Funds, generally on a daily basis. The variation margin
payments are equal to the daily changes in the contract value and are recorded
as unrealized gains or losses. The Funds recognize a realized gain or loss when
the contract is closed or expires. The statement of operations reflects
realized and unrealized gains and losses on these contracts. Futures contracts
are valued at the settlement price established each day on the exchange on
which they are traded.
5.DISTRIBUTION PLAN
The Trust has adopted a distribution plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Act"). The Plan governs payments
made for the expenses incurred in the promotion and distribution of the
SwissKey Class of shares. Annual fees under the Plan of 0.50%, 0.52% and 0.47%
of the average daily net assets of the SwissKey Class of the U.S. Balanced
Fund, U.S. Equity Fund and U.S. Bond Fund, respectively, are accrued daily.

SHAREHOLDER LETTER

February 22, 1996
Dear Shareholder:
We appreciate the confidence you have placed in us and are pleased to present
you with the December 31, 1995 Semi-Annual Report for the Global Fund, Global
Equity Fund and Global Bond Fund. This Report presents our current global
economic and market outlook, as well as the Funds' recent investment strategies
and performance. To summarize this information:
Global Fund
The Brinson Global Fund paid a dividend of $0.802 per share on December 29,
1995 to shareholders of record on December 20, 1995.
For the period from August 31, 1992 (performance inception date) to December
31, 1995, the Fund provided an annualized total return of 10.58%. In 1995, the
Fund returned 24.14%. The Fund returned 11.29% in the second half of the year.
Fund strategy presently continues to underweight equities, as equity prices
generally continue to exceed values. These underweights are offset by
overweights in the relatively attractive bond markets, primarily the U.S.,
Canada and DM-bloc countries.
Global Equity Fund
The Brinson Global Equity Fund paid a dividend of $0.723 per share on December
29, 1995 to shareholders of record on December 20, 1995.
For the period from January 31, 1994 (performance inception date) to December
31, 1995, the Fund provided an annualized total return of 8.37%. In 1995, the
Fund returned 21.93%. The Fund returned 15.39% in the second half of the year.
The Fund continues to hold a 10% cash hedge, reflecting the overvaluation in
many equity markets. The greatest underweight is in the U.S. market, where
price exceeds fundamental value by about 20%. Although the Japanese market
remains overpriced, its underweight is smaller, as the downward adjustment of
the yen should benefit the equity market.
Global Bond Fund
The Brinson Global Bond Fund paid a dividend of $1.335 per share on December
29, 1995 to shareholders of record on December 20, 1995.
For the period from July 31, 1993 (performance inception date) to December 31,
1995, the Fund provided an annualized total return of 8.05%. In 1995, the Fund
returned 20.32%. The Fund returned 9.19% in the second half of the year.
The attractive European bond markets, primarily Denmark, France, Germany and
the Netherlands, are the primary overweights in the Fund. In the U.S. market,
the yield curve is very close to our equilibrium level, leading to a modest
underweight. The below-equilibrium yields cause the Fund's largest underweight
to be the Japanese bond market.
Funds' Currency Strategy
The currency strategy continues to focus on reducing the risk of exposure to
the yen and DM-bloc currencies. Even after their declines from the peaks
reached last April, the levels of these currencies are still above fair value.
We look forward to the challenges ahead and, as always, welcome your comments
and suggestions.
Sincerely,
/s/ Gary P. Brinson

GLOBAL ECONOMIC AND MARKET HIGHLIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGO
Relative to the U.S. dollar, the yen and deutschemark have weakened from the
highs reached earlier this year. These currencies are, however, still above
equilibrium values. Currency strength has dampened economic activity in
Germany, and has contributed to the suspension of growth and to price deflation
in Japan.
With continued modest growth in most countries, unemployment has tended to
decline, albeit slowly. The exception is Japan, where the reported unemployment
rate hit new highs and is expected to continue upward. As businesses attempt to
cut costs, in part by shifting production overseas, the demand for labor has
weakened substantially. The unemployment rate, if calculated by other
countries' standards, would be several times higher than reported.
Inflation in most developed countries remains under control, owing both to
increased central bank vigilance and to a lack of major cost shocks. Inflation
has risen in Italy recently and has stayed higher in Spain than elsewhere. Both
these countries have demonstrated less than responsible fiscal policy and poor
monetary discipline.

GLOBAL FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGO
The Global Fund is an actively managed, diversified mutual fund that provides
integrated asset management across and within securities markets. The
investment process is strategic in nature and is driven by deviations of market
price from fundamental value. This philosophy offers the greatest potential
for achieving superior long-term returns, while maintaining control of risk.
The Brinson Global Fund has provided an annualized return of 10.58% since its
inception on August 31, 1992. This compares with the corresponding 12.95%
return of its benchmark, the Brinson Global Fund Index. Fund performance over
this period was achieved with an annualized volatility of 4.61%, well below the
benchmark volatility of 6.08%. In 1995, the Fund returned 24.14%, while the
benchmark returned 25.42%. For the second half of 1995, the Global Fund
returned 11.29% compared to the 9.98% return of the benchmark. Positive
contributors to relative performance included security selection within the
U.S. equity component, hedging currency risk, and underweighting non-U.S.
equities. Negative contributors included an underweight in U.S. equities and
overweights in bond markets.
Currency market volatility during the year carried the yen and core European
currencies to extreme highs against the dollar in the first four months of
1995. By the end of the year, however, the dollar showed net appreciation
against the yen and reversed its slide against the deutschemark. Because of the
very low short-term interest rates in Japan, hedging yen risk provided a
substantial interest rate differential.
The strong yen prompted the Bank of Japan to cut short rates to historic lows.
In the U.S., the Fed began to partially reverse the hikes made in 1994.
European central banks eased in the face of slowing growth and overvalued
currencies. The result was falling yield curves and very good performance in
bond markets.
As the U.S. equity and bond markets rallied, the non-U.S. markets became
relatively more attractive and additional weight was allocated. The Japanese
bond and equity valuations remained relatively unattractive. But because of the
policy initiatives by the Japanese government and central bank to restart the
economy and provide liquidity, the Japanese equity underweight was reduced.
Asset allocation strategy continues to underweight equity markets, as prices
remain in excess of fundamental value, and to overweight bonds. In most bond
markets outside Japan, yields exceed equilibrium levels, offering attractive
relative value. The Fund continues to hold no cash. Currency strategy is
focused on controlling exposure to the overvalued core European currencies and
the yen, with a primary overweight in the U.S. dollar.

GLOBAL EQUITY FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGO
The Global Equity Fund is an actively managed portfolio that provides
integrated asset management across and within world equity markets. The
investment process is strategic in nature and is driven by deviations of market
price from fundamental value. This philosophy offers the greatest potential
for achieving enhanced long-term returns, while maintaining control of risk.
The Global Equity Fund has provided an annualized return of 8.37% since January
31, 1994 (performance inception date), compared to the 9.99% return of its
benchmark, the MSCI World Equity (Free) Index; on a currency hedged basis the
benchmark returned 7.39%. In 1995, the Fund returned 21.93%, while the
benchmark returned 25.42%. For the second half of 1995, the Fund returned
15.39% compared to the Index return of 10.84%.
Currency allocation and equity management strategies contributed positively to
Fund performance during the year. Market allocation strategies, notable for a
U.S. equity market underweight and cash risk hedge, detracted from performance.
Global equity markets were generally strong in 1995, with the U.S. and
Switzerland providing the highest returns of 38.19% and 30.58%, respectively,
on a U.S. dollar hedged basis. Many other markets posted double-digit returns.
The weakest markets were Austria and Italy with respective currency hedged
declines of 10.68% and 4.65%. Amidst this general market strength, Japanese
equities were notable underperformers. The Japanese market rallied by 9.16% in
U.S. dollar hedged terms. The first half of 1995 saw the Japanese market
decline by about 20%, only to recover more than 35% in the last half. The
Global Equity Fund began the year with a large Japan underweight and shifted to
a near neutral strategy during the year.
Currency movements, especially the Japanese yen, contributed significantly to
index volatility during the year. The yen appreciated by more than 20% early in
the year, reaching a peak of 80 yen/U.S. dollar in mid-April. It depreciated
through the rest of the year to end about unchanged at roughly 100 yen/U.S.
dollar. The yen underweight and U.S. dollar overweight added value through the
extreme interest rate differential between the U.S. and Japan. A partial offset
to this value added came from underweights of the core European currencies.
These currencies appreciated in the early part of 1995, but, unlike the yen,
remained steady for the year's duration. The European currencies as well as the
yen ended the year overpriced relative to fundamental values. Consequently, the
Fund remains underweighted in these currencies with offsetting overweights in
the U.S. and Canadian dollars.
Security selection derived most of its added value from equity management in
the U.S. and Japan. The extra return in the U.S. in 1995 was attributable to a
number of favorable industry positions. Favorable industry exposures included
overweights in defense/aerospace, bank and insurance stocks. Positive
contributions from equity management in Japan were attributable to the Fund's
exposure to high quality defensive issues and exporters, and underweights to
cyclicals in an environment of market decline.

GLOBAL BOND FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGO
The Global Bond Fund is an actively managed portfolio that provides integrated
asset management across and within world fixed income markets. The investment
process is strategic in nature and is driven by deviations of market price from
fundamental value. This philosophy offers the greatest potential for achieving
enhanced long-term returns, while maintaining control of risk.
The Brinson Global Bond Fund has provided an annualized return of 8.05% since
July 31, 1993 (performance inception date). Its benchmark, the Salomon World
Government Bond Index, returned 10.37%; on a currency hedged basis, the
benchmark returned 7.48%. In 1995, the Fund returned 20.32%, while the
benchmark returned 19.04%. In the second half of 1995, the Fund produced a
return of 9.19% compared to the 1.87% return of the benchmark.
Market and currency allocation and bond management strategies all contributed
positively to portfolio performance in 1995. Market allocation contributions
were broadly derived from European and Canadian bond market overweights against
U.S. and Japanese underweights. The yen underweight provided for the currency
allocation contribution. Bond management added value in nearly every country.
The foundation for the bond market strength was established in 1994 as global
bond prices retreated from historically high levels. Yield increases, built on
fears of higher inflation and excessive demand for capital, created large
discrepancies between prices and fundamental values. These discrepancies were
largely erased during 1995 as economies began to languish and inflation fears
evaporated.
During the course of the year global bondmarkets staged an almost uninterrupted
rally. The year's hedged return of 17.83% was the largest calendar year return
since 1982. No single market provided a negative return and the Dutch market,
the Fund's largest overweight during the year, paced the index with a U.S.
dollar hedged return of 20.36%.
Currency movements, especially the Japanese yen, contributed significantly to
index volatility during the year. The yen appreciated by more than 20% early in
the year, reaching a peak of 80 yen/U.S. dollar in mid-April. It depreciated
through the rest of the year to end about unchanged at roughly 100 yen/U.S.
dollar. The yen underweight and U.S. dollar overweight added value through the
extreme interest rate differential between the U.S. and Japan. A partial offset
to this value-added came from underweights of the core European currencies.
These currencies appreciated in the early part of 1995, but, unlike the yen,
remained steady for the year's duration. The European currencies as well as the
yen ended the year overpriced relative to fundamental value. Consequently, the
Fund remains underweighted in these currencies with offsetting overweights in
the U.S. and Canadian dollars.
Bond management added value in nearly every country. In the U.S., added value
is attributable to non-government debt exposures. Long duration strategies in
most non-U.S. markets added to relative performance in 1995.

This chart shows the growth in the value of an investment in the Brinson Global
Bond Fund and the Salomon World Government Bond Index (currency unhedged and
hedged) if you had invested $100,000 on July 31, 1993, and had reinvested all
your income dividends and capital gain distributions through December 31,
1995. No adjustment has been made for any income taxes payable by shareholders
on income dividends and capital gain distributions. Past performance is no
guarantee of future results. Share price and return will vary with market
conditions; investors may realize a gain or loss upon redemption.

THE BRINSON FUNDS -- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Brinson Funds (the "Trust") is an open-end, management investment company
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a series
company. The Trust currently offers shares of ten series: Global Fund, Global
Equity Fund, Global Bond Fund, Short-Term Global Income Fund, U.S. Balanced
Fund, U.S. Equity Fund, U.S. Bond Fund, U.S. Cash Management Fund, Non-U.S.
Equity Fund and Non-U.S. Bond Fund. Each Fund has outstanding two classes of
shares, Brinson Class and SwissKey Class. There are an unlimited number of
shares of each class with par value of $0.001 authorized. Each share represents
an identical interest in the investments of the Funds and has the same rights.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Global Fund, the Global Equity Fund and the Global Bond Fund
(each a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds") in the preparation of their
financial statements.
A. INVESTMENT VALUATION: Securities for which quotations are readily available
are valued at the last available sales price on the exchange or market on which
they are principally traded, or lacking any sales, at the last available bid
price on the exchange or market on which such securities are principally
traded. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available,
including restricted securities which are subject to limitations on their sale,
are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction
of the Trust's Board of Trustees. Fixed income/debt securities are valued by
using market quotations or independent services that use prices provided by
market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating
to instruments or securities with similar characteristics. Futures contracts
are valued at the settlement price established each day on the exchange on
which they are traded. Forward contracts are valued daily using quoted forward
exchange rates. Short-term obligations with a maturity of 60 days or less are
valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
B. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION: Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars
at the bid prices of such currencies against the U.S. dollar as of the date of
valuation. Purchases and sales of portfolio securities, commitments under
forward foreign currency contracts, income receipts and expense accruals are
translated at the prevailing exchange rate on the date of each transaction.
Realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses on investments are
included as a component of net realized and unrealized gain or loss in the
statement of operations.
C. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS: Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade
date basis. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on an identified
cost basis.
D. INVESTMENT INCOME: Interest income, which includes the amortization of
premiums and discounts is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income is
recorded on the ex-dividend date, except that certain dividends from foreign
securities are recorded as the information becomes available.
E. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: It is the policy of the Funds to comply with all
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") applicable to regulated
investment companies and to distribute substantially all of their taxable
income to their shareholders. The Funds have met the requirements of the Code
applicable to regulated investment companies for the six months ended December
31, 1995. Therefore, no federal income tax provision was required. At December
31, 1995, the Global Equity Fund had a capital loss carryforward of
approximately $1,069,000, of which $251,000 will expire on June 30, 2003 and
$818,000 will expire on June 30, 2004 and the Global Bond Fund had a capital
loss carryforward of approximately $55,000 which will expire on June 30, 2004.
F. ORGANIZATION COSTS: Organization costs are being amortized on a straight-line
basis over five years from each Fund's respective commencement of operations.
G. DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS: It is the policy of the Funds to distribute
their respective net investment income on a semi-annual basis and net capital
gains annually. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend
date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for
foreign currency transactions. Differences in dividends per
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
47
<PAGE>
THE BRINSON FUNDS -- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
share between the classes are due to different class expenses. Amounts equal to
17.54% and 100.00% of the amount taxable as ordinary income qualify for the
dividends received deduction available to corporate shareholders for the Global
Fund and the Global Equity Fund, respectively.
H.INCOME AND EXPENSE ALLOCATION: All income earned and expenses incurred by the
Fund, will be borne on a pro rata basis by each of the classes except that the
Brinson Class shares will not incur any of the 12b-1 expenses.
2.INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Brinson Partners, Inc. (the "Advisor"), a registered investment advisor,
provides the Funds with investment management services. As compensation for
these services, the Funds pay the Advisor a monthly fee based on each Fund's
respective average daily net assets. The Advisor has agreed to waive its fees
and reimburse each Fund to the extent total annualized expenses exceed a
specified percentage of each Fund's respective average daily net assets.
Investment advisory fees and other transactions with affiliates, for the six
months ended December 31, 1995, were as follows:

</TABLE>
Certain officers of the Funds are also officers and directors of the Advisor.
All officers serve without direct compensation from the Funds. Trustees' fees
paid to unaffiliated trustees were $5,790, $2,139 and $2,266 for the Brinson
Global Fund, Brinson Global Equity Fund and Brinson Global Bond Fund,
respectively.
3.INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
Investment transactions for the six months ended December 31, 1995, excluding
short-term investments, are as follows:

Global Bond Fund...................................... 32,218,194 41,468,914
</TABLE>
4.FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS
The Funds engage in portfolio hedging with respect to changes in currency
exchange rates by entering into forward foreign currency contracts to purchase
or sell currencies. Foward foreign currency contracts are also used to achieve
currency allocation strategies. A forward foreign currency contract is a
commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a
negotiated forward rate. Risks associated with such contracts include movement
in the value of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar and the
ability of the counterparty to perform. The unrealized gain, if any, represents
the credit risk to the Fund on a foward foreign currency contract. Fluctuations
in the value of forward foreign currency contracts are recorded daily as net
unrealized gains or losses. The Funds realize a gain or loss upon settlement of
the contracts. The statement of operations reflects net realized and net
unrealized gains and losses on these contracts. The counterparty to all forward
foreign currency contracts at December 31, 1995 was the Funds' custodian.
5.FUTURES CONTRACTS
The Funds may purchase or sell exchange-traded futures contracts, which are
contracts that obligate the Funds to make or take delivery of a financial
instrument or the cash value of a securities index at a specified future date
at a specified price. The Funds enter into such contracts to hedge a portion of
their portfolio. Risks of entering into futures contracts include the
possibility that there may be an
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
48
<PAGE>
THE BRINSON FUNDS -- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
illiquid market and that a change in the value of the contract may not
correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities. Upon entering
into a futures contract, the Funds are required to deposit either cash or
securities in an amount (initial margin) based on the number of open contracts.
Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received by the Funds,
generally on a daily basis. The variation margin payments are equal to the
daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized gains or
losses. The Funds recognize a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed
or expires. The statement of operations reflects net realized and net
unrealized gains and losses on these contracts.
6.DISTRIBUTION PLAN
The Trust has adopted a distribution plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Act"). The Plan governs payments
made for the expenses incurred in the promotion and distribution of the
SwissKey Class of shares. Annual fees under the Plan of 0.65%, 0.76% and 0.49%
of the average daily net assets of the SwissKey Class of the Global Fund,
Global Equity Fund and Global Bond Fund, respectively, are accrued daily.
7.CAPITAL TRANSACTIONS

February 22, 1996
Dear Shareholder:
We appreciate the confidence you have placed in us and are pleased to present
you with the December 31, 1995 Semi-Annual Report for the Non-U.S. Equity Fund.
This Report presents our current global economic and market outlook, as well
as the Fund's recent investment strategies and performance. To summarize this
information:
The Brinson Non-U.S. Equity Fund paid a dividend of $0.667 per share on
December 29 to shareholders of record on December 20, 1995.
For the period from August 31, 1993 (inception date of the Fund) to December
31, 1995, the Fund provided an annualized total return of 5.22%. For the
calendar year 1995, the Fund returned 15.55%. In the second half of 1995, the
Fund returned 15.55%.
Market Strategy
Although the Japanese equities are still overvalued, the Fund is only modestly
underweight in Japan as the downward adjustment of the yen should benefit the
equity market. The Fund currently holds a 4% cash hedge.
Currency Strategy
Currency strategy continues to focus on reducing the risk of exposure to the
yen and DM-bloc currencies. Even after their declines from the peaks reached
last April, the levels of these currencies are still above fair value.
On December 31, 1995, the Non-U.S. Equity Fund had net assets of $171,465,487.
We look forward to the challenges of 1996 and, as always, welcome your thoughts
and comments.
Sincerely,
Gary P. Brinson, CFA

GLOBAL ECONOMIC AND MARKET HIGHLIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[BRINSON LOGO]
Relative to the U.S. dollar, the yen and deutschemark have weakened from the
highs reached earlier this year. These currencies are, however, still above
equilibrium values. Currency strength has dampened economic activity in Germa-
ny, and has contributed to the suspension of growth and to price deflation in
Japan.
With continued modest growth in most countries, unemployment has tended to de-
cline, albeit slowly. The exception is Japan, where the reported unemployment
rate hit new highs and is expected to continue upward. As businesses attempt to
cut costs, in part by shifting production overseas, the demand for labor has
weakened substantially. The unemployment rate, if calculated by other coun-
tries' standards, would be several times higher than reported.
Inflation in most developed countries remains under control, owing both to in-
creased central bank vigilance and to a lack of major cost shocks. Inflation
has risen in Italy recently and has stayed higher in Spain than elsewhere. Both
these countries have demonstrated less than responsible fiscal policy and poor
monetary discipline.

NON-U.S. EQUITY FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGO
The Non-U.S. Equity Fund invests in the common stocks of companies
headquartered in the established non-U.S. stock markets. This exposure to the
full range of investable developed non-U.S. equity markets helps provide the
foundation for enhanced investment performance.
Since its inception on August 31, 1993, the Non-U.S. Equity Fund has earned an
annualized return of 5.22% versus a benchmark return of 7.64% for the MSCI Non-
U.S. Equity (Free) Index; on a currency hedged basis the benchmark returned
5.20%. For the year ended December 31, 1995, the Fund returned 15.55%, while
the benchmark returned 11.73% on an unhedged basis and 12.23% on a hedged
basis. For the six months ended December 31, 1995, the Fund returned 15.55%
versus the benchmark return of 8.39%.
During 1995, the best performing markets in dollar-hedged terms were
Switzerland, gaining 30.58%; Hong Kong, rising 22.28%; the U.K., up 21.83%; and
the Netherlands, increasing 20.15%. Many other markets registered double-digit
returns. Within this environment of general market strength, Japan was the
underperformer, with a dollar-hedged return of 9.16%. In sharp contrast,
Austria declined 10.68%, while Italy and Finland were also weak, declining
4.65% and 3.85%, respectively.
Market allocation contributed significantly to performance in 1995.
Overweights in several Anglo-Saxon markets were successful, but the Fund gained
most, particularly in the first half of the year, from its underweight of
Japan, Finland, Norway and Austria. The overall impact of strategic cash was
neutral: a result of varying cash strategies and the widely differing
performance of the non-U.S. markets at various points throughout the year.
Currency allocation was the greatest positive contributor to performance,
helped by the strength of the U.S. dollar against the yen, as well as the
positive performance of the Canadian dollar, the New Zealand dollar and most of
the other currencies (the Italian lira, the Spanish peseta and the Swedish
krona), where the Fund was overweighted. In contrast, the U.S. dollar's 5.58%
decline against the core DM-bloc currencies detracted from performance. The
current U.S. dollar overweight and, to a lesser extent, that of the Canadian
dollar are driven by a minimal exposure to the Japanese yen and the DM-bloc
currencies. The latter currencies continue to be overvalued and pose an
ongoing risk to the portfolio.
Stock selection was neutral. Positive stock selection from Japan resulted from
the portfolio's exposure to high quality defensive issues and exporters, and
underexposure to cyclicals in an environment of market decline. This was
offset by a negative contribution from overweighting European financials.

1.SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Brinson Funds (the "Trust") is an open-end, management investment company
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a series
company. The Trust currently offers shares of ten series: Global Fund, Global
Equity Fund, Global Bond Fund, Short-Term Global Income Fund, U.S. Balanced
Fund, U.S. Equity Fund, U.S. Bond Fund, U.S. Cash Management Fund, Non-U.S.
Equity Fund and Non-U.S. Bond Fund. The Fund has outstanding two classes of
common shares, Brinson Class and SwissKey Class. There are an unlimited number
of shares of each class with par value of $0.001 authorized. Each share of the
Fund represents an identical interest in the investments of the Fund and has
the same rights. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies
consistently followed by the Non-U.S. Equity Fund (the "Fund") in the
preparation of its financial statements.
A.INVESTMENT VALUATION: Securities for which market quotations are readily
available are valued at the last available sales price on the exchange or
market on which they are principally traded, or lacking any sales, at the last
available bid price on the exchange or market on which such securities are
principally traded. Securities for which market quotations are not readily
available, including restricted securities which are subject to limitations on
their sale, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under
the direction of the Trust's Board of Trustees. Futures contracts are valued at
the settlement price established each day on the exchange on which they are
traded. Forward contracts are valued daily using quoted forward exchange rates.
Short-term obligations with a maturity of 60 days or less are valued at
amortized cost, which approximates market value.
B.FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION: Investments and other assets and liabilities
denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the bid
prices of such currencies against the U.S. dollar as of the date of valuation.
Purchases and sales of portfolio securities, commitments under forward foreign
currency contracts, income receipts and expense accruals are translated at the
prevailing exchange rate on the date of each transaction. Realized and
unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses on investments are included as a
component of net realized and unrealized gain or loss in the statement of
operations.
C.INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS: Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade
date basis. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on an identified
cost basis.
D.INVESTMENT INCOME: Interest income which includes amortization of premiums
and discounts, is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on
the ex-dividend date, except that certain dividends from foreign securities are
recorded as the information becomes available.
E.FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: It is the policy of the Fund to comply with all
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") applicable to regulated
investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income
to its shareholders. The Fund has met the requirements of the Code applicable
to regulated investment companies for the six months ended December 31, 1995,
therefore, no federal income tax provision was required. At December 31, 1995,
the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of approximately $5,400,000, of which
$260,000, $1,180,000 and $3,960,000 will expire on June 30, 2002, June 30, 2003
and June 30, 2004, respectively.
F.ORGANIZATION COSTS: Organization costs are being amortized on a straight-line
basis over five years from the commencement of operations.
G.DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS: It is the policy of the Fund to distribute its
net investment income on a semi-annual basis and net capital gains, if any,
annually. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income
tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for foreign
currency transactions. Differences in dividends per share between the classes
are due to different class expenses.

NON-U.S. EQUITY FUND -- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
H.INCOME AND EXPENSE ALLOCATION: All income earned and expenses incurred by the
Fund will be borne on a pro rata basis by each of the classes except that the
Brinson Class shares will not incur any of the 12b-1 expenses.
2.INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Brinson Partners, Inc. (the "Advisor"), a registered investment advisor,
provides the Fund with investment management services. As compensation for
these services, the Fund pays the Advisor a monthly fee based on the Fund's
average daily net assets. The Advisor has agreed to waive its fees and
reimburse the Fund to the extent total annualized expenses exceed a specified
percentage of the Fund's average daily net assets. The expense cap is 1.00% and
1.84% of the average daily net assets of the Brinson Class and SwissKey Class,
respectively. Investment advisory fees and other transactions with affiliates
for the six months ended December 31, 1995, were as follows:

Certain officers of the Fund are also officers of the Advisor. All officers
serve without direct compensation from the Fund. Trustees' fees paid to
unaffiliated trustees were $3,489.
3.INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

short-term investments, were as follows:

</TABLE>
4.FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS
The Fund engages in portfolio hedging with respect to changes in currency
exchange rates by entering into forward foreign currency contracts to purchase
or sell currencies. Forward foreign currency contracts are also used to achieve
currency allocation strategies. A forward foreign currency contract is a
commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a
negotiated forward rate. Risks associated with such contracts include movement
in the value of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar and the
ability of the counterparty to perform. The unrealized gain, if any, represents
the credit risk to the Fund on a forward foreign currency contract.
Fluctuations in the value of forward foreign currency contracts are recorded
daily as net unrealized gains or losses. The Fund realizes a gain or loss upon
settlement of the contracts. The statement of operations reflects net realized
and net unrealized gains and losses on these contracts. The counterparty to all
forward foreign currency contracts at December 31, 1995 was the Fund's
custodian.
5.FUTURES CONTRACTS
The Fund may purchase or sell exchange-traded futures contracts, which are
contracts that obligate the Fund to make or take delivery of a financial
instrument or the cash value of a securities index at a specified future date
at a specified price. The Fund enters into such contracts to hedge a portion of
its portfolio. Risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility
that there may be an illiquid market and that a change in the value of the
contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying
securities. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to
deposit either cash or securities in an amount (initial margin) based on the
number of open contracts. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or
received by the Fund, generally on a daily basis. The variation margin payments
are equal to the daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as
unrealized gains or losses. The Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when
the contract is closed or expires. The statement of operations reflects
realized and unrealized gains and losses on these contracts.

6.DISTRIBUTION PLAN
The Trust has adopted a distribution plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1
under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Plan governs payments made for
the expenses incurred in the promotion and distribution of the SwissKey Class
of shares. Annual fees under the Plan of 0.84% of the average daily net asset
of the SwissKey Class are accrued daily.
7. CAPITAL TRANSACTIONS

SHAREHOLDER LETTER
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGO
February 22, 1996
Dear Shareholder:
Thank you for investing in the SwissKey Non-U.S. Equity Fund. We appreciate the
confidence you have placed in us. As we begin the first quarter of 1996, we are
pleased to present you with the December 31, 1995 Semi-Annual Report for the
SwissKey Non-U.S. Equity Fund.
A COMPELLING COMBINATION OF TWO GLOBAL INVESTMENT LEADERS
In the world of global investing, the combination of Swiss Bank Corporation and
Brinson Partners, Inc. adds world class value to our clients' investments.
Swiss Bank Corporation, founded in 1872, is a global financial institution
serving the needs of worldwide corporate, public and private clients. With more
than $191 billion in assets and a strong presence in 40 countries, Swiss Bank
Corporation is the largest fund manager in Switzerland and is among the top
money managers worldwide. Swiss Bank Corporation holds membership in the
world's leading stock exchanges.
Brinson Partners, Inc. currently manages over $53 billion in assets for clients
which include employee benefit plans and other institutional investors. The
firm is the largest U.S. active manager of global assets and has operated under
the same investment philosophy and senior management for almost two decades.
Fund Performance
Since the commencement of the SwissKey Class distribution on July 31, 1995, the
SwissKey Non-U.S. Equity Fund has provided a total return of 8.58% versus the
benchmark return of 2.20% for the MSCI Non-U.S. Equity (Free) Index.
Current Strategy
Although the Japanese equities are still overvalued, the Fund is only modestly
underweight in Japan as downward adjustment of the yen should benefit the
equity market. The Fund currently holds a 4% cash hedge. Currency strategy
continues to focus on reducing the risk of exposure to the yen and DM-bloc
currencies. Even after their declines from the peaks reached last April, the
levels of these currencies are still above fair value.
We look forward to the challenges ahead and, as always, welcome your thoughts
and comments.
Sincerely,
/s/ Raoul Weil /s/ Raymond Simon

INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC REVIEW AND OUTLOOK
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGO
Interest rates declined across the globe in 1995 but the underlying real rates
remained high. The motives varied across countries but the common theme of the
monetary authorities was vigilance against excess liquidity. The problem areas
in the real economies were left to fend for themselves, without access to the
monetary printing presses that had been so readily available in the past. As a
result, inflation remains modest but structural unemployment remains high and
economic growth has slowed in most countries. Whether this new separation
between nominal and real economic policies is maintained is the great
uncertainty in the international outlook.
In Europe, the move toward economic and monetary union is the dominant force
as the monetary rules continue to be set by the Bundesbank with its
unrelenting pursuit of deutschemark integrity. Other countries that remain
committed to the requirements of the Exchange Rate Mechanism have kept their
currencies in line with the DM. On the plus side, those countries that have
kept their currencies most closely tied to the DM now have inflation rates of
2% or less. But this has also worked to keep most European currencies,
including the DM, significantly overpriced in world markets, aggravating the
already severe competitive problems that result from the generally high labor
costs and extensive government involvement in economic affairs that
characterize the region. The result has been a slowing of economic growth and
persistently high rates of unemployment.
The planned move to a single currency (Euro), managed by a single European
central bank, has probably been a major factor in this situation. On the one
hand, the credibility of a single European currency requires the various
governments to show a commitment to consistent, sound monetary policies. On
the other hand, however, the Germans remain suspicious of losing the proven
discipline of the Bundesbank. Thus, the German central bank presses hard to
wring as much inflation out of the system ahead of the adoption of the single
currency and the other governments see themselves as forced to go along. While
it will be a new game if and when the Bundesbank relinquishes its duties, the
near-term outlook for Europe is that monetary policy will continue to focus on
price stability while economic growth prospects will depend primarily on
structural reform.
The paper wealth that the Japanese created for themselves with the speculative
bubble in their domestic asset prices ultimately led to both a collapse of
asset prices within Japan and a surge in the value of the yen against most
other currencies. This wiped out a significant portion of the yen value of the
non-Japanese assets that they had accumulated. Inside Japan, the appreciation
of the yen produced a wealth transfer from investors to consumers, effectively
offsetting the pro-capital, anti-consumption policy of the government.
The large volume of trade between the U.S. and Japan, plus the large capital
flows, gave the appearance that the strength of the yen was actually a problem
of a weak dollar which, in turn, reflected heavy U.S. borrowing abroad. Ergo,
the focus on the Federal budget deficit as the source of the problem. While
little good has resulted from the explosive growth of the Federal budget, its
contribution to the problems of the dollar into early 1995 was coincidental.
Instead, the lead role was played by the Japanese, as the government
steadfastly refused to recognize the aggregate wealth loss that was necessary
to clean up the excesses of the speculative bubble of the late 1980s. In using
official powers, including the Bank of Japan to soften the adjustment, market
forces took the lead in correcting the situation. That meant sharp, real
appreciation of the yen and a period of prolonged economic weakness that
continues into 1996.

NON-U.S. EQUITY FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGO
The Non-U.S. Equity Fund invests in the common stocks of companies
headquartered in the established non-U.S. stock markets. This exposure to the
full range of investable developed non-U.S. equity markets helps provide the
foundation for enhanced investment performance.
Since its inception on July 31, 1995, the Non-U.S. Equity Fund has earned an
unannualized return of 8.58% versus a benchmark return of 2.20% for the MSCI
Non-U.S. Equity (Free) Index.
Below is a discussion of the 1995 international equity markets activity, as
well our current investment strategies.
During 1995, the best performing markets in dollar-hedged terms were
Switzerland, gaining 30.58%; Hong Kong, rising 22.28%; the U.K., up 21.83%; and
the Netherlands, increasing 20.15%. Many other markets registered double-digit
returns. Within this environment of general market strength, Japan was the
underperformer, with a dollar-hedged return of 9.16%. In sharp contrast,
Austria declined 10.68%, while Italy and Finland were also weak, declining
4.65% and 3.85%, respectively.
Market allocation contributed significantly to performance. Overweights in
several Anglo-Saxon markets were successful. The overall impact of strategic
cash was neutral: a result of varying cash strategies and the widely differing
performance of the non-U.S. markets at various points throughout the year.
Currency allocation was the greatest positive contributor to performance,
helped by the strength of the U.S. dollar against the yen, as well as the
positive performance of the Canadian dollar, the New Zealand dollar and most of
the other currencies (the Italian lira, the Spanish peseta and the Swedish
krona), where the Fund was overweighted. The current U.S. dollar overweight
and, to a lesser extent, that of the Canadian dollar are driven by a minimal
exposure to the Japanese yen and the DM-bloc currencies. The latter currencies
continue to be overvalued and pose an ongoing risk to the portfolio.
Stock selection was neutral. Positive stock selection from Japan resulted from
the portfolio's exposure to high quality defensive issues and exporters, and
underexposure to cyclicals in an environment of market decline. This was
offset by a negative contribution from overweighting European financials.

NON-U.S. EQUITY FUND -- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Brinson Funds (the "Trust") is an open-end, management investment company
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a series
company. The Trust currently offers shares of ten series: Global Fund, Global
Equity Fund, Global Bond Fund, Short-Term Global Income Fund, U.S. Balanced
Fund, U.S. Equity Fund, U.S. Bond Fund, U.S. Cash Management Fund, Non-U.S.
Equity Fund and Non-U.S. Bond Fund. The Fund has outstanding two classes of
common shares, Brinson Class and SwissKey Class. There are an unlimited number
of shares of each class with par value of $0.001 authorized. Each share of the
Fund represents an identical interest in the investments of the Fund and has
the same rights. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies
consistently followed by the Non-U.S. Equity Fund (the "Fund") in the
preparation of its financial statements.
A.INVESTMENT VALUATION: Securities for which market quotations are readily
available are valued at the last available sales price on the exchange or
market on which they are principally traded, or lacking any sales, at the last
available bid price on the exchange or market on which such securities are
principally traded. Securities for which market quotations are not readily
available, including restricted securities which are subject to limitations on
their sale, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under
the direction of the Trust's Board of Trustees. Futures contracts are valued at
the settlement price established each day on the exchange on which they are
traded. Forward contracts are valued daily using quoted forward exchange rates.
Short-term obligations with a maturity of 60 days or less are valued at
amortized cost, which approximates market value.
B.FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION: Investments and other assets and liabilities
denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the bid
prices of such currencies against the U.S. dollar as of the date of valuation.
Purchases and sales of portfolio securities, commitments under forward foreign
currency contracts, income receipts and expense accruals are translated at the
prevailing exchange rate on the date of each transaction. Realized and
unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses on investments are included as a
component of net realized and unrealized gain or loss in the statement of
operations.
C.INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS: Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade
date basis. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on an identified
cost basis.
D.INVESTMENT INCOME: Interest income which includes amortization of premiums
and discounts, is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on
the ex-dividend date, except that certain dividends from foreign securities are
recorded as the information becomes available.
E.FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: It is the policy of the Fund to comply with all
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") applicable to regulated
investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income
to its shareholders. The Fund has met the requirements of the Code applicable
to regulated investment companies for the six months ended December 31, 1995,
therefore, no federal income tax provision was required. At December 31, 1995,
the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of approximately $5,400,000, of which
$260,000, $1,180,000 and $3,960,000 will expire on June 30, 2002, June 30, 2003
and June 30, 2004, respectively.
F.ORGANIZATION COSTS: Organization costs are being amortized on a straight-line
basis over five years from the commencement of operations.
G.DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS: It is the policy of the Fund to distribute its
net investment income on a semi-annual basis and net capital gains, if any,
annually. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income
tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for foreign
currency transactions. Differences in dividends per share between the classes
are due to different class expenses.

NON-U.S. EQUITY FUND -- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
H.INCOME AND EXPENSE ALLOCATION: All income earned and expenses incurred by the
Fund will be borne on a pro rata basis by each of the classes except that the
Brinson Class shares will not incur any of the 12b-1 expenses.
2.INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Brinson Partners, Inc. (the "Advisor"), a registered investment advisor,
provides the Fund with investment management services. As compensation for
these services, the Fund pays the Advisor a monthly fee based on the Fund's
average daily net assets. The Advisor has agreed to waive its fees and
reimburse the Fund to the extent total annualized expenses exceed a specified
percentage of the Fund's average daily net assets. The expense cap is 1.00% and
1.84% of the average daily net assets of the Brinson Class and SwissKey Class,
respectively. Investment advisory fees and other transactions with affiliates
for the six months ended December 31, 1995, were as follows:

</TABLE>
Certain officers of the Fund are also officers of the Advisor. All officers
serve without direct compensation from the Fund. Trustees' fees paid to
unaffiliated trustees were $3,489.
3.INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
Investment transactions for the six months ended December 31, 1995, excluding
short-term investments, were as follows:

Non-U.S. Equity Fund.................................... $44,410,789 $19,198,934
</TABLE>
4.FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS
The Fund engages in portfolio hedging with respect to changes in currency
exchange rates by entering into forward foreign currency contracts to purchase
or sell currencies. Forward foreign currency contracts are also used to achieve
currency allocation strategies. A forward foreign currency contract is a
commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a
negotiated forward rate. Risks associated with such contracts include movement
in the value of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar and the
ability of the counterparty to perform. The unrealized gain, if any, represents
the credit risk to the Fund on a forward foreign currency contract.
Fluctuations in the value of forward foreign currency contracts are recorded
daily as net unrealized gains or losses. The Fund realizes a gain or loss upon
settlement of the contracts. The statement of operations reflects net realized
and net unrealized gains and losses on these contracts. The counterparty to all
forward foreign currency contracts at December 31, 1995 was the Fund's
custodian.
5.FUTURES CONTRACTS
The Fund may purchase or sell exchange-traded futures contracts, which are
contracts that obligate the Fund to make or take delivery of a financial
instrument or the cash value of a securities index at a specified future date
at a specified price. The Fund enters into such contracts to hedge a portion of
its portfolio. Risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility
that there may be an illiquid market and that a change in the value of the
contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying
securities. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to
deposit either cash or securities in an amount (initial margin) based on the
number of open contracts. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or
received by the Fund, generally on a daily basis. The variation margin payments
are equal to the daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as
unrealized gains or losses. The Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when
the contract is closed or expires. The statement of operations reflects
realized and unrealized gains and losses on these contracts.

6.DISTRIBUTION PLAN
The Trust has adopted a distribution plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1
under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Plan governs payments made for
the expenses incurred in the promotion and distribution of the SwissKey Class
of shares. Annual fees under the Plan of 0.84% of the average daily net asset
the SwissKey class are accrued daily.
7. CAPITAL TRANSACTIONS

February 22, 1996
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to present you with the December 31, 1995 Semi-Annual Report for
the Global Fund, Global Equity Fund and Global Bond Fund. Since SwissKey class
inception on July 31, 1995, the Funds have provided the following total
returns: SwissKey Global Fund 8.61%; SwissKey Global Equity Fund 9.93%; and
SwissKey Global Bond Fund 7.22%.
A COMPELLING COMBINATION OF TWO GLOBAL INVESTMENT LEADERS
In the world of global investing, the combination of Swiss Bank Corporation and
Brinson Partners, Inc. adds world class value to our clients' investments.
Swiss Bank Corporation, founded in 1872, is a global financial institution
serving the needs of worldwide corporate, public and private clients. With more
than $191 billion in assets and a strong presence in 40 countries, Swiss Bank
Corporation is the largest fund manager in Switzerland and is among the top
money managers worldwide. Swiss Bank Corporation holds membership in the
world's leading stock exchanges.
Brinson Partners, Inc. currently manages over $53 billion in assets for clients
which include employee benefit plans and other institutional investors. The
firm is the largest U.S. active manager of global assets and has operated under
the same investment philosophy and senior management for almost two decades.
CURRENT STRATEGY
Global Fund
Fund strategy presently continues to underweight equities, as equity prices
continue to exceed values. These underweights are offset by overweights in the
relatively attractive bond markets, primarily the U.S., Canada and DM-bloc
countries.
Global Equity Fund
The Fund continues to hold a 10% cash hedge, reflecting the overvaluation in
many equity markets. The greatest underweight is the U.S. market, where price
exceeds fundamental value by about 20%. Although the Japanese market remains
overpriced, its underweight is smaller, as the downward adjustment of the yen
should benefit the equity market.
Global Bond Fund
The attractive European bond markets, primarily Denmark, France, Germany and
the Netherlands, are the primary overweight in the Fund. In the U.S. market,
the yield curve is very close to our equilibrium level, leading to a modest
underweight. The below-equilibrium yields cause the Fund's largest underweight
to be the Japanese bond market.
Funds' Currency Strategy
Currency strategy continues to focus on reducing the risk of exposure to the
yen and DM-bloc currencies. Even after their declines from the peaks reached
last April, the levels of these currencies are still above fair value.
We look forward to the challenges ahead and, as always, welcome your thoughts
and comments.
Sincerely,

GLOBAL ECONOMIC REVIEW AND OUTLOOK
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGO
Interest rates declined across the globe in 1995 but the underlying real rates
remained high. The motives varied across countries but the common theme of the
monetary authorities was vigilance against excess liquidity. The problem areas
in the real economies were left to fend for themselves, without access to the
monetary printing presses that had been so readily available in the past. As a
result, inflation remains modest but structural unemployment remains high and
economic growth has slowed in most countries. Whether this new separation
between nominal and real economic policies is maintained is the great
uncertainty in the global outlook.
In Europe, the move toward economic and monetary union is the dominant force as
the monetary rules continue to be set by the Bundesbank with its unrelenting
pursuit of deutschemark integrity. Other countries that remain committed to the
requirements of the Exchange Rate Mechanism have kept their currencies in line
with the DM. On the plus side, those countries that have kept their currencies
most closely tied to the DM now have inflation rates of 2% or less. But this
has also worked to keep most European currencies, including the DM,
significantly overpriced in world markets, aggravating the already severe
competitive problems that result from the generally high labor costs and
extensive government involvement in economic affairs that characterize the
region. The result has been a slowing of economic growth and persistently high
rates of unemployment.
The planned move to a single currency (Euro), managed by a single European
central bank, has probably been a major factor in this situation. On the one
hand, the credibility of a single European currency requires the various
governments to show a commitment to consistent, sound monetary policies. On the
other hand, however, the Germans remain suspicious of losing the proven
discipline of the Bundesbank. Thus, the German central bank presses hard to
wring as much inflation out of the system ahead of the adoption of the single
currency and the other governments see themselves as forced to go along. While
it will be a new game if and when the Bundesbank relinquishes its duties, the
near-term outlook for Europe is that monetary policy will continue to focus on
price stability while economic growth prospects will depend primarily on
structural reform.
In the U.S., the Federal budget deficit continues to receive the bulk of
attention. The consensus, both here and abroad, is that the U.S. simply borrows
too much. Among Americans, the typical complaint focuses on the burden that
current deficits impose on future generations. In other countries, the concern
is that the U.S., by its sheer size, absorbs a disproportionate share of global
capital. Aggregate saving within the U.S. continues to fall short of private
domestic investment demands plus government borrowing requirements, producing
current account deficits that must be financed in international markets. While
there are political points to be scored, especially in this election year, the
clear trend is toward a reduction of the Federal deficit. The real issue is how
the reduction is achieved--how much the government will spend, how they will
spend and what tax system will be used to finance that spending.
Even with a balanced budget, the current spending priorities and tax structure
of the Federal government contain significant disincentives for domestic
saving. In general, however, foreigners have been willing to do our saving for
us, providing the capital to fuel strong investment growth in the U.S. Japan
disrupted this process in the late 1980s, however. The paper wealth that the
Japanese created for themselves with the speculative bubble in their domestic
asset prices ultimately led to both a collapse of asset prices within Japan and
a surge in the value of the yen against most other currencies. This wiped out a
significant portion of the yen value of the non-Japanese assets that they had
accumulated. Inside Japan, the appreciation of the yen produced a wealth
transfer from investors to consumers, effectively offsetting the pro-capital,
anti-consumption policy of the government.
The large volume of trade between the U.S. and Japan, plus the large capital
flows, gave the appearance that the strength of the yen was actually a problem
of a weak dollar which, in turn, reflected heavy U.S. borrowing abroad. Ergo,
the focus on the Federal budget deficit as the source of the problem. While
little good has resulted from the explosive growth of the Federal budget, its
contribution to the problems of the dollar into early 1995 was coincidental.
Instead, the lead role was played by the Japanese, as the government
steadfastly refused to recognize the aggregate wealth loss that was necessary
to clean up the excesses of the speculative bubble of the late 1980s. In using
official powers, including the Bank of Japan, to soften the adjustment, market
forces took the lead in correcting the situation. That meant sharp, real
appreciation of the yen and a period of prolonged economic weakness that
continues into 1996.

GLOBAL FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGO
The Global Fund is an actively managed, diversified mutual fund that provides
integrated asset management across and within securities markets. The
investment process is strategic in nature and is driven by deviations of market
price from fundamental value. This philosophy offers the greatest potential
for achieving superior long-term returns, while maintaining control of risk.
The SwissKey Global Fund has provided an unannualized return of 8.61% since its
inception on July 31, 1995. This compares with the corresponding 6.65% return
of its benchmark, the SwissKey Global Fund Index. Positive contributors to
relative performance included security selection within the U.S. equity
component, hedging currency risk, and underweighting non-U.S. equities.
Negative contributors included an underweight in U.S. equities and overweights
in bond markets.
Below is a discussion of the 1995 global markets activity, as well as our
current investment strategies.
Currency market volatility during the year carried the yen and core European
currencies to extreme highs against the dollar in the first four months of
1995. By the end of the year, however, the dollar showed net appreciation
against the yen and reversed its slide against the deutschemark. Because of the
very low short-term interest rates in Japan, hedging yen risk provided a
substantial interest rate differential.
The strong yen prompted the Bank of Japan to cut short rates to historic lows.
In the U.S., the Fed began to partially reverse the hikes made in 1994.
European central banks eased in the face of slowing growth and overvalued
currencies. The result was falling yield curves and very good performance in
bond markets.
As the U.S. equity and bond markets rallied, the non-U.S. markets became
relatively more attractive and additional weight was allocated. The Japanese
bond and equity valuations remained relatively unattractive. But because of the
policy initiatives by the Japanese government and central bank to restart the
economy and provide liquidity, the Japanese equity underweight was reduced.
Asset allocation strategy continues to underweight equity markets, as prices
remain in excess of fundamental value, and to overweight bonds. In most bond
markets outside Japan, yields exceed equilibrium levels, offering attractive
relative value. The Fund continues to hold no cash. Currency strategy is
focused on controlling exposure to the overvalued core European currencies and
the yen, with a primary overweight in the U.S. dollar.

GLOBAL EQUITY FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGO
The Global Equity Fund is an actively managed portfolio that provides
integrated asset management across and within world equity markets. The
investment process is strategic in nature and is driven by deviations of market
price from fundamental value. This philosophy offers the greatest potential
for achieving enhanced long-term returns, while maintaining control of risk.
The SwissKey Global Equity Fund has provided an unannualized return of 9.93%
since its inception on July 31, 1995, compared to the 5.56% return of its
benchmark, the MSCI World Equity (Free) Index.
Currency allocation and equity management strategies contributed positively to
Fund performance. Below in a discussion of the 1995 global equity markets, as
well as our current investment strategies.
Global equity markets were generally strong in 1995, with the U.S. and
Switzerland providing the highest returns of 38.19% and 30.58%, respectively,
on a U.S. dollar hedged basis. Many other markets posted double-digit returns.
The weakest markets were Austria and Italy with respective currency hedged
declines of 10.68% and 4.65%. Amidst this general market strength, Japanese
equities were notable underperformers. The Japanese market rallied by 9.16% in
U.S. dollar hedged terms. The first half of 1995 saw the Japanese market
decline by about 20%, only to recover more than 35% in the last half.
Currency movements, especially the Japanese yen, contributed significantly to
index volatility during the year. The yen appreciated by more than 20% early in
the year, reaching a peak of 80 yen/U.S. dollar in mid-April. It depreciated
through the rest of the year to end about unchanged at roughly 100 yen/U.S.
dollar. The yen underweight and U.S. dollar overweight added value through the
extreme interest rate differential between the U.S. and Japan. A partial offset
to this value added came from underweights of the core European currencies.
These currencies appreciated in the early part of 1995, but, unlike the yen,
remained steady for the year's duration. The European currencies as well as the
yen ended the year overpriced relative to fundamental values. Consequently, the
Fund remains underweighted in these currencies with offsetting overweights in
the U.S. and Canadian dollars.
Security selection derived most of its added value from equity management in
the U.S. and Japan. The extra return in the U.S. was attributable to a number
of favorable industry positions. Favorable industry exposures included
overweights in defense/aerospace, bank and insurance stocks. Positive
contributions from equity management in Japan were attributable to the Fund's
exposure to high quality defensive issues and exporters, and underweights to
cyclicals in an environment of market decline.

GLOBAL BOND FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGO
The Global Bond Fund is an actively managed portfolio that provides integrated
asset management across and within world fixed income markets. The investment
process is strategic in nature and is driven by deviations of market price from
fundamental value. This philosophy offers the greatest potential for achieving
enhanced long-term returns, while maintaining control of risk.
The SwissKey Global Bond Fund has provided an unannualized return of 7.22%
since July 31, 1995. Its benchmark, the Salomon World Government Bond Index,
returned 1.62%. Below is a discussion of the 1995 global bond markets, as well
as our current investment strategies.
Market and currency allocation and bond management strategies all contributed
positively to portfolio performance. Market allocation contributions were
broadly derived from European and Canadian bond market overweights against U.S.
and Japanese underweights. The yen underweight provided for the currency
allocation contribution. Bond management added value in nearly every country.
The foundation for the bond market strength was established in 1994 as global
bond prices retreated from historically high levels. Yield increases, built on
fears of higher inflation and excessive demand for capital, created large
discrepancies between prices and fundamental values. These discrepancies were
largely erased during 1995 as economies began to languish and inflation fears
evaporated.
During the course of the year global bondmarkets staged an almost uninterrupted
rally. The year's hedged return of 17.83% was the largest calendar year return
since 1982. No single market provided a negative return and the Dutch market
paced the index with a U.S. dollar hedged return of 20.36%.
Currency movements, especially the Japanese yen, contributed significantly to
index volatility during the year. The yen appreciated by more than 20% early in
the year, reaching a peak of 80 yen/U.S. dollar in mid-April. It depreciated
through the rest of the year to end about unchanged at roughly 100 yen/U.S.
dollar. The yen underweight and U.S. dollar overweight added value through the
extreme interest rate differential between the U.S. and Japan. A partial offset
to this value-added came from underweights of the core European currencies.
These currencies appreciated in the early part of 1995, but, unlike the yen,
remained steady for the year's duration. The European currencies as well as the
yen ended the year overpriced relative to fundamental value. Consequently, the
Fund remains underweighted in these currencies with offsetting overweights in
the U.S. and Canadian dollars.
Bond management added value in nearly every country. In the U.S., added value
is attributable to non-government debt exposures. Long duration strategies in
most non-U.S. markets added to relative performance.

THE SWISSKEY FUNDS -- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Brinson Funds (the "Trust") is an open-end, management investment company
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a series
company. The Trust currently offers shares of ten series: Global Fund, Global
Equity Fund, Global Bond Fund, Short-Term Global Income Fund, U.S. Balanced
Fund, U.S. Equity Fund, U.S. Bond Fund, U.S. Cash Management Fund, Non-U.S.
Equity Fund and Non-U.S. Bond Fund. Each Fund has outstanding two classes of
shares, Brinson class and SwissKey class. There are an unlimited number of
shares of each class with par value of $0.001 authorized. Each share represents
an identical interest in the investments of the Funds and has the same rights.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Global Fund, the Global Equity Fund and the Global Bond Fund
(each a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds") in the preparation of their
financial statements.
A.INVESTMENT VALUATION: Securities for which quotations are readily available
are valued at the last available sales price on the exchange or market on which
they are principally traded, or lacking any sales, at the last available bid
price on the exchange or market on which such securities are principally
traded. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available,
including restricted securities which are subject to limitations on their sale,
are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction
of the Trust's Board of Trustees. Fixed income/debt securities are valued by
using market quotations or independent services that use prices provided by
market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating
to instruments or securities with similar characteristics. Futures contracts
are valued at the settlement price established each day on the exchange on
which they are traded. Forward contracts are valued daily using quoted forward
exchange rates. Short-term obligations with a maturity of 60 days or less are
valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
B.FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION: Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars
at the bid prices of such currencies against the U.S. dollar as of the date of
valuation. Purchases and sales of portfolio securities, commitments under
forward foreign currency contracts, income receipts and expense accruals are
translated at the prevailing exchange rate on the date of each transaction.
Realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses on investments are
included as a component of net realized and unrealized gain or loss in the
statement of operations.
C.INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS: Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade
date basis. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on an identified
cost basis.
D.INVESTMENT INCOME: Interest income, which includes the amortization of
premiums and discounts is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income is
recorded on the ex-dividend date, except that certain dividends from foreign
securities are recorded as the information becomes available.
E.FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: It is the policy of the Funds to comply with all
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") applicable to regulated
investment companies and to distribute substantially all of their taxable
income to their shareholders. The Funds have met the requirements of the Code
applicable to regulated investment companies for the six months ended December
31, 1995. Therefore, no federal income tax provision was required. At December
31, 1995, the Global Equity Fund had a capital loss carryforward of
approximately $1,069,000, of which $251,000 will expire on June 30, 2003 and
$818,000 will expire on June 30, 2004 and the Global Bond Fund had a capital
loss carryforward of approximately $55,000 which will expire on June 30, 2004.
F.ORGANIZATION COSTS: Organization costs are being amortized on a straight-line
basis over five years from each Fund's respective commencement of operations.
G.DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS: It is the policy of the Funds to distribute
their respective net investment income on a semi-annual basis and net capital
gains annually. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend
date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for
foreign currency transactions. Differences in dividends per
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
47
<PAGE>
THE SWISSKEY FUNDS -- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
share between the classes are due to different class expenses. Amounts equal to
17.54% and 100.00% of the amount taxable as ordinary income qualify for the
dividends received deduction available to corporate shareholders for the Global
Fund and the Global Equity Fund, respectively.
H.INCOME AND EXPENSE ALLOCATION: All income earned and expenses incurred by the
Fund, will be borne on a pro rata basis by each of the classes except that the
Brinson Class shares will not incur any of the 12b-1 expenses.
2.INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Brinson Partners, Inc. (the "Advisor"), a registered investment advisor,
provides the Funds with investment management services. As compensation for
these services, the Funds pay the Advisor a monthly fee based on each Fund's
respective average daily net assets. The Advisor has agreed to waive its fees
and reimburse each Fund to the extent total annualized expenses exceed a
specified percentage of each Fund's respective average daily net assets.
Investment advisory fees and other transactions with affiliates, for the six
months ended December 31, 1995, were as follows:

Certain officers of the Funds are also officers and directors of the Advisor.
All officers serve without direct compensation from the Funds. Trustees' fees
paid to unaffiliated trustees were $5,790, $2,139 and $2,266 for the Brinson
Global Fund, Brinson Global Equity Fund and Brinson Global Bond Fund,
respectively.
3.INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
Investment transactions for the six months ended December 31, 1995, excluding
short-term investments, are as follows:

Global Bond Fund...................................... 32,218,194 41,468,914
</TABLE>
4.FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS
The Funds engage in portfolio hedging with respect to changes in currency
exchange rates by entering into forward foreign currency contracts to purchase
or sell currencies. Foward foreign currency contracts are also used to achieve
currency allocation strategies. A forward foreign currency contract is a
commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a
negotiated forward rate. Risks associated with such contracts include movement
in the value of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar and the
ability of the counterparty to perform. The unrealized gain, if any, represents
the credit risk to the Fund on a foward foreign currency contract. Fluctuations
in the value of forward foreign currency contracts are recorded daily as net
unrealized gains or losses. The Funds realize a gain or loss upon settlement of
the contracts. The statement of operations reflects net realized and net
unrealized gains and losses on these contracts. The counterparty to all forward
foreign currency contracts at December 31, 1995 was the Funds' custodian.
5.FUTURES CONTRACTS
The Funds may purchase or sell exchange-traded futures contracts, which are
contracts that obligate the Funds to make or take delivery of a financial
instrument or the cash value of a securities index at a specified future date
at a specified price. The Funds enter into such contracts to hedge a portion of
their portfolio. Risks of entering into futures contracts include the
possibility that there may be an
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
48
<PAGE>
THE SWISSKEY FUNDS -- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
illiquid market and that a change in the value of the contract may not
correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities. Upon entering
into a futures contract, the Funds are required to deposit either cash or
securities in an amount (initial margin) based on the number of open contracts.
Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received by the Funds,
generally on a daily basis. The variation margin payments are equal to the
daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized gains or
losses. The Funds recognize a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed
or expires. The statement of operations reflects net realized and net
unrealized gains and losses on these contracts.
6.DISTRIBUTION PLAN
The Trust has adopted a distribution plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Act"). The Plan governs payments
made for the expenses incurred in the promotion and distribution of the
SwissKey Class of shares. Annual fees under the Plan of 0.65%, 0.76% and 0.49%
of the average daily net assets of the SwissKey Class of the Global Fund,
Global Equity Fund and Global Bond Fund, respectively, are accrued daily.
7.CAPITAL TRANSACTIONS
Capital stock transactions were as follows:

February 22, 1996
Dear Shareholder:
Thank you for investing in the SwissKey Funds. We are pleased to present you
with the December 31, 1995 Semi-Annual Report for the U.S Balanced Fund, the
U.S. Equity Fund and the U.S. Bond Fund.
A COMPELLING COMBINATION OF TWO GLOBAL INVESTMENT LEADERS
In the world of global investing, the combination of Swiss Bank Corporation and
Brinson Partners, Inc. adds world class value to our clients' investments.
Swiss Bank Corporation, founded in 1872, is a global financial institution
serving the needs of worldwide corporate, public and private clients. With more
than $191 billion in assets and a strong presence in 40 countries, Swiss Bank
Corporation is the largest fund manager in Switzerland and is among the top
money managers worldwide. Swiss Bank Corporation holds membership in the
world's leading stock exchanges.
Brinson Partners, Inc. currently manages over $53 billion in assets for clients
which include employee benefit plans and other institutional investors. The
firm is the largest U.S. active manager of global assets and has operated under
the same investment philosophy and senior management for almost two decades.
U.S. BALANCED FUND
Since the commencement of the SwissKey Class distribution on July 31, 1995, the
SwissKey U.S. Balanced Fund has provided a total return of 8.41%. The Fund's
market allocation has been characterized by an underweight in the U.S. equity
market and overweight to the U.S. Bond market.
U.S. EQUITY FUND
Since the commencement of the SwissKey Class distribution on July 31, 1995, the
SwissKey U.S. Equity Fund has provided a total return of 13.35%. Fund strategy
currently maintains an above average exposure to stocks with high
earnings/price measures and an overweight of intermediate versus large
capitalization issues relative to the benchmark. The Fund also possesses a
meaningful exposure toward economically-sensitive and financially-leveraged
stocks and an underweight with respect to companies with foreign earnings and
relative strength.
U.S. BOND FUND
Since commencement on August 31, 1995, the SwissKey U.S. Bond Fund has provided
a total return of 5.29%. With intermediate and long-term interest rates within
the range of our estimates of fair value, the Fund's current investment
strategy involves near neutral duration and yield curve exposure.
We look forward to the challenges ahead and, as always, welcome your thoughts
and comments.
Sincerely,
/s/ Raoul Weil /s/ Raymond Simon

U.S. BALANCED FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGO
The U.S. Balanced Fund is an actively managed, diversified portfolio that
provides integrated asset management across and within U.S. stocks, bonds and
cash. The investment process is strategic in nature and is driven by deviations
of market price from fundamental value. This philosophy offers the greatest
potential for achieving enhanced long-term returns, while controlling risk.
The SwissKey U.S. Balanced Fund produced an unannualized return of 8.41% since
its inception on July 31, 1995. This compares with the corresponding 8.54%
return of its benchmark, the U.S. Balanced Index. The U.S. Balanced Index is a
fixed weight composite of 65% Wilshire 5000 Equity Index and 35% Salomon
Brothers Broad Investment Grade Bond Index. Security selection within equities
contributed positively to relative performance, while underweighting equities
and overweighting bonds contributed negatively.
Below is a discussion of the 1995 U.S. markets activity, as well as our current
investment strategies.
At the start of 1995, the Federal Reserve raised its target for the Fed Funds
rate by 50 basis points, after increasing it more than 250 basis points the
previous year. These rate hikes produced enough signs of slowing growth and
sluggish inflationary pressure that the Fed reversed course and provided two
small rate cuts later in the year.
Bonds performed well in the low inflation environment. Considerable declines in
long yields caused the yield curve to become almost horizontal toward the end
of the year. Long bonds provided excellent returns as a result. With rates
declining over most of the curve, the bond market moved from undervalued to a
position approximating fundamental value. At the short end, values are still in
excess of price, but at the long end price and value are very close.
Lower interest rates also benefited several sectors of the U.S. equity market,
in particular bank and insurance stocks. The equity market was buoyed by a
large number of positive earnings surprises, and earnings growth continued at a
double-digit pace. The equity component of the Fund was helped by an overweight
in bank stocks and by favorable market response to consolidation in several
overweighted industries.
With equity prices rising through the year, the market's overvaluation
persisted at about 20%. At year-end, asset allocation strategy involves
underweighting the overvalued equity market and overweighting the relatively
attractive bond market. Duration strategy is approximately neutral as bond
prices, except at the short end, are within the range of our fundamental value
estimates.

U.S. EQUITY FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGO
The U.S. Equity Fund is an actively managed portfolio of common stocks selected
from the total universe of public, domestic issues.
For the period July 31, 1995 to December 31, 1995, the SwissKey U.S. Equity
Fund provided a total return of 13.35% compared to its benchmark, the Wilshire
5000 Index, return of 9.94%. The major factors affecting excess return in 1995
and the year's market conditions are discussed in the following paragraphs.
The strong excess return of the U.S. Equity Fund in 1995 was attributable to a
number of favorable industry positions. Industry consolidation was a common
theme in many of these positions as strong excess cash flows plus management
focus on strengthening market position and cutting costs catalyzed a wave of
mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures across corporate America. One of the
most favorable of these industry positions was the weighting in
defense/aerospace. This group benefited from a number of positive factors in
1995, including a stabilization of the downtrend in defense budget
appropriations, strong takeover activity among defense industry participants,
and an upturn in commercial aircraft orders. Lockheed Martin, one of the larger
portfolio positions, was a notable beneficiary of these trends, particularly as
a result of the merger of Martin Marietta and Lockheed earlier in the year.
This combination promises to produce a materially stronger, more profitable
competitor. Other meaningful holdings in this industry were Boeing, which
enjoyed a strong flow of new orders, especially from overseas, and Honeywell,
which has a leading market position in avionics for both commercial and defense
aircraft.
An overweighting in bank stocks also added to results. Continued improvement in
credit quality, lower interest rates, strong loan demand and heightened merger
activity were all contributors to bank earnings and stock valuations in 1995.
Bank holdings included Citicorp, Chase Manhattan, U.S. Bancorp, Comerica,
BayBanks, State Street and Magna Group.
Insurance was another industry that benefited from a confluence of favorable
fundamental factors in 1995, including lower inflation and interest rates as
well as reduced claims trends, particularly regarding environmental
liabilities. In addition, many insurance company managements took action to
refocus their companies on core strengths in recent years by eliminating less
profitable lines of business. The U.S. Equity Fund was well represented in the
insurance industry last year with important positions in Cigna, Aon,
TransAmerica, Aetna, Old Republic, Allstate and USF&G.
The consolidation theme was also evident in several other important individual
stock contributors to portfolio results. Burlington Northern is particularly
noteworthy in this regard, as the combination with Santa Fe Pacific promises to
produce very large cost savings and other synergies. In addition, Kimberly
Clark was a standout performer following the Scott Paper acquisition
announcement, as the combined company promises to be a better positioned, more
profitable, global entity. Finally, First Financial Management, a credit card
transaction processing company, was acquired by First Data Corp. in a highly
complementary merger.

This chart shows the growth in the value of an investment in the SwissKey U.S.
Equity Fund and the Wilshire 5000 Index if you had invested $10,000 on July 31,
1995, and had reinvested all your income dividends and capital gain
distributions through December 31, 1995. No adjustment has been made for any
income taxes payable by shareholders on income dividends and capital gain
distributions. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Share price
and return will vary with market conditions; investors may realize a gain or
loss upon redemption.

U.S. BOND FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGO
The U.S. Bond Fund is an actively managed portfolio of debt securities selected
from a wide range of maturities and market sectors.
The SwissKey U.S. Bond Fund produced a return of 5.29% since its inception on
August 31, 1995 compared to the Salomon Brothers Broad Investment Grade (BIG)
Bond Index return of 5.32%.
Below is a dicussion of the 1995 U.S. Bond market activity, as well as our
outlook for 1996.
At the beginning of 1995, the U.S. economy was coming off a period of above
trend real economic growth. The most recent changes in Federal Reserve policy
were to raise short-term interest rates. Bond markets were priced to reflect
the risk of an acceleration of inflation in a potentially overheated economy.
These expectations were reinforced when the Federal Reserve increased its
target rate on overnight funds from 5.5% to 6.0% at the end of January 1995.
The lagged impact of a restrictive monetary policy was reinforced by a less
expansive fiscal policy as reported federal deficits declined. This was
complemented by events in Mexico and elsewhere that dampened U.S. export
demand. A growing political consensus to move toward a federal budget balance
met a favorable response in the bond market. Over the course of the year,
growth of real economic activity slowed, inflation remained stable, and bond
prices shifted from discounting further Fed tightening to expecting Fed ease.
Responding to an improved inflation outlook, the Federal Reserve cut its
overnight target rates in 25 basis point increments both in July and December.
Yields on intermediate-maturity fixed income securities fell by over 250 basis
points over the year as the front of the yield curve shifted from a steep
positive slope at the beginning of the year to a flat to mildly inverted shape
at year-end. Long-term yields fell about 190 basis points. Corporate bonds
provided the best sector returns as credit risk premiums generally narrowed.
Mortgage backed securities lagged in performance as the large absolute decline
in intermediate yields gave homeowners added incentives to refinance
outstanding higher coupon mortgages.
Our investment strategies early in 1996 involve near neutral duration and yield
curve exposures within the U.S. Bond Fund. Intermediate and long-term interest
rates are within the range of our estimates of fair value. Short-term rates
remain above fair value, and we expect them to decline as Federal Reserve
policy shifts produce further reductions in overnight funds rates. Unlike the
prior two years, when large interest rate shifts first produced negative
returns followed by large positive returns, in 1996 we expect relative
stability in U.S. interest rates, which would result in total returns
comparable to the current yields available to fixed income investors.

This chart shows the growth in the value of an investment in the SwissKey U.S.
Bond Fund and the Salomon Brothers BIG Bond Index if you had invested $10,000 on
August 31, 1995, and had reinvested all your income dividends and capital gain
distributions through December 31, 1995. No adjustment has been made for any
income taxes payable by shareholders on income dividends and capital gain
distributions. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Share price
and return will vary with market conditions; investors may realize a gain or
loss upon redemption.

THE SWISSKEY FUNDS -- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Brinson Funds (the "Trust") is an open-end, management investment company
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a series
company. The Trust currently offers shares of ten series: Global Fund, Global
Equity Fund, Global Bond Fund, Short-Term Global Income Fund, U.S. Balanced
Fund, U.S. Equity Fund, U.S. Bond Fund, U.S. Cash Management Fund, Non-U.S.
Equity Fund and Non-U.S. Bond Fund. Each Fund has outstanding two classes of
shares, Brinson class and SwissKey class. There are an unlimited number of
shares of each class with par value of $0.00 authorized. Each share represents
an identical interest in the investments of the Funds and has the same rights.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the U.S. Balanced Fund, U.S. Equity Fund and the U.S. Bond Fund
(each a "Fund," collectively the "Funds") in the preparation of their financial
statements.
A.INVESTMENT VALUATION: Securities for which market quotations are readily
available are valued at the last available sales price on the exchange or
market on which they are principally traded, or lacking any sales, at the last
available bid price on the exchange or market on which such securities are
principally traded. Securities for which market quotations are not readily
available, including restricted securities which are subject to limitations on
their sale, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under
the direction of the Trust's Board of Trustees. Fixed income/debt securities
are valued using market quotations or independent services that use prices
provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield
data relating to instruments or securities with similar characteristics. Short-
term obligations with a maturity of 60 days or less are valued at amortized
cost, which approximates market value.
B.INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS: Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade
date basis. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on an identified
cost basis.
C.INVESTMENT INCOME: Interest income, which includes the amortization of
premiums and discounts, is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income is
recorded on the ex-dividend date.
D.FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: It is the policy of the Funds to comply with all
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") applicable to regulated
investment companies and to distribute substantially all of their taxable
income to their shareholders. The Funds have met the requirements of the Code
applicable to regulated investment companies for the period ended December 31,
1995, therefore, no federal income tax provision was required.
E.ORGANIZATION COSTS: Organization costs are being amortized on a straight-line
basis over five years from each Fund's respective commencement of operations.
F.DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS: It is the policy of the Funds to distribute
their respective net investment income on a semi-annual basis and capital
gains, if any, annually. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-
dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in
accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. Differences in dividends per share between the classes
are due to different class expenses. Amounts equal to 7.21% and 68.68% of the
amount taxable as ordinary income qualify for the dividends received deduction
available to corporate shareholders for the Brinson U.S. Balanced Fund and the
Brinson U.S. Equity Fund, respectively.
G.INCOME AND EXPENSE ALLOCATIONS: All income earned and expenses incurred by
the Fund will be borne on a prorata basis by each of the classes except that
the Brinson class will not incur any of the 12b-1 expenses.

2.INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Brinson Partners, Inc. (the "Advisor"), a registered investment advisor,
provides the Funds with investment management services. As compensation for
these services, each Fund pays the Advisor a monthly fee based on the Fund's
respective average daily net assets. The Advisor has agreed to waive its fees
and reimburse each Fund to the extent total annualized expenses exceed a
specified percentage of each Fund's respective average daily net assets.
Investment advisory fees and other transactions with affiliates for the period
ended December 31, 1995, were as follows:
<TABLE>

U.S. Bond Fund.......... 0.50 0.60 1.07 14,076 113,298 99,086
</TABLE>
Certain officers of the Funds are also officers of the Advisor. All officers
serve without direct compensation from the Funds. Trustees' fees paid to
unaffiliated trustees were $3,623, $2,451 and $3,942 for the U.S. Balanced
Fund, U.S. Equity Fund, and U.S. Bond Fund, respectively.
3.INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
Investment transactions for the period ended December 31, 1995, excluding
short-term investments, were as follows:

U.S. Bond Fund........................................ 26,005,847 17,524,350
</TABLE>
4.FUTURES CONTRACTS
The Funds may purchase or sell exchange-traded futures contracts, which are
contracts that obligate the Funds to make or take delivery of a financial
instrument or the cash value of a securities index at a specified future date
at a specified price. The Funds enter into such contracts to hedge a portion of
their portfolio. Risks of entering into futures contracts include the
possibility that there may be an illiquid market and that a change in the value
of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying
securities. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Funds are required to
deposit either cash or securities in an amount (initial margin) based on the
number of open contracts. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or
received by the Funds, generally on a daily basis. The variation margin
payments are equal to the daily changes in the contract value and are recorded
as unrealized gains or losses. The Funds recognize a realized gain or loss when
the contract is closed or expires. The statement of operations reflects
realized and unrealized gains and losses on these contracts. Futures contracts
are valued at the settlement price established each day on the exchange on
which they are traded.
5.DISTRIBUTION PLAN
The Trust has adopted a distribution plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Act"). The Plan governs payments
made for the expenses incurred in the promotion and distribution of the
SwissKey Class of shares. Annual fees under the Plan of 0.50%, 0.52% and 0.47%
of the average daily net assets of the SwissKey Class of the U.S. Balanced
Fund, U.S. Equity Fund and U.S. Bond Fund, respectively, are accrued daily.
