                               November 30, 1993
 
    DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
 
        The strong price appreciation of the securities in the Portfolio over
    the course of 1993 resulted directly from the historic decline in interest
    rates as well as the enactment of new tax legislation that additionally
    fueled investors' demand for tax-exempt issues. Securities regulations 
which
    govern the management of this and other closed-end funds require that the
    Portfolio distribute annually any realized net capital gains; 
consequently,
    in December, the Portfolio paid a short-term capital gain of $0.59 per
    share.
 
        Because the Portfolio's capital gain was substantially more than its
    current tax-exempt dividend, even after the assessment of Federal income
    tax, the Portfolio's Board of Directors elected to forgo the regular 
monthly
    dividend for the month of December only. This action is intended to 
support
    the dividend level going forward.
 
        During the Portfolio's past fiscal quarter, the first blush of 
positive
    economic news permeated the bond market. The combination of record new 
issue
    volume and stronger economic fundamentals caused all fixed income 
securities
    to move to higher rates (and lower prices) by late November. We think
    municipal new issue volume will decline substantially in the future and 
that
    tax-exempts should outperform taxable bonds over the next year in any 
market
    climate.
 
        We are implementing a two-pronged strategy for our investment 
decisions:
    the first prong consists of maintaining a high-grade approach to credit
    quality and the second is to shorten the average maturities in the
    Portfolio. Current tax rates in the United States make municipals a very
    prudent investment on an after-tax basis. However, against the backdrop of
    an improving economy which could ignite expectations for higher inflation
    and interest rates, we feel a more conservative approach to interest rate
    risk will prove the most prudent course to pursue.

        From time to time, we also will use a futures contract to enhance the
    defensive nature of the Portfolio. The futures contract (which is an
    agreement to buy or sell a specific amount of a financial instrument at a
    particular price on an agreed-upon date) is used as a hedging vehicle in
    declining markets to help preserve your investment capital. We believe
    preservation of capital is a critical element in our total return 
philosophy
    of investing.
 
        As of November 30, 23% of the Portfolio was rated AAA, 18% was rated 
AA
    and 15% was rated A by either Standard & Poor's Corporation or Moody's
    Investors Services, Inc. (two nationally recognized bond rating
    organizations). The average maturity was 21 years, and the majority of the
    Portfolio's holdings were in the transportation, general obligation,
    hospital and education sectors.
 
        If you have any questions or comments about your investment in the
    Portfolio, please contact The Shareholder Services Group, Inc. at (800)
    331-1710. We appreciate your continued confidence.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
   Managed Municipals Portfolio II Inc. (the "Portfolio") was organized as a
corporation under the laws of the State of Maryland on July 23, 1992 and is
registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a non-diversified,
closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended. The policies described below are followed consistently by 
the
Portfolio in the valuation of its securities.
 
   PORTFOLIO VALUATION: Investments are valued by The Boston Company Advisors,
Inc. ("Boston Advisors") after consultation with an independent pricing 
service
(the "Service") approved by the Portfolio's Board of Directors. When, in the
judgment of the Service, quoted bid prices for investments are readily 
available
and are representative of the bid side of the market, these investments are
valued at the mean between the quoted bid prices and asked prices. Investments
for which, in the judgment of the Service, no readily obtainable market
quotations are available, are carried at fair value as determined by the
Service, based on methods that include consideration of: yields or prices of
Municipal Obligations of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type;
indications as to values from dealers; and general market conditions. The
Service may use electronic data processing techniques and/or a matrix system 
to
determine valuations. Short-term investments that mature in fewer than 60 days
are valued at amortized cost.
 
   FUTURES CONTRACTS: Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is
required to deposit with the broker an amount of cash or cash equivalents 
equal
to a certain percentage of the contract amount. This is known as the "initial
margin." Subsequent payments ("variation margin") are made or received by the
Portfolio each day, depending on the daily fluctuation of the value of the
contract.
 
   For financial statement purposes, an amount equal to the settlement amount 
of
the contract is included in its Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an 
asset
and as an equivalent liability. For long futures positions, the asset is
marked-to-market daily to reflect the current market value of the futures
contract; for short futures positions, the liability is marked-to-market daily
to reflect the current market value. The daily changes in the contract are
recorded as unrealized gains or losses. The Portfolio recognizes a realized 
gain
or loss when the contract is closed.

                   NOVEMBER 30, 1993 (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)
 
   There are several risks in connection with the use of futures contracts as 
a
hedging device. The change in value of futures contracts primarily corresponds
with the value of their underlying instruments, which may not correlate with 
the
change in value of the hedged investments. In addition, there is the risk the
Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an
illiquid secondary market.
