Dear Target Shareholder:

Turbulent times for the equity markets
Not only did the first half of 2000 include some of the
most turbulent days in U.S. stock market history, there
were dramatic reversals of fortune at other time scales
as well-by quarter and by month. Many of these reversals
canceled each other out, so that by the end of June the
S&P 500 had only a small net loss, and the Russell 2000
Index of small-cap stocks only a modest gain.

The main market stories over this period were the net
correction (downward) of extended telecommunications
stocks and the seesaw-like rise of healthcare, power
utilities, and energy stocks. The technology sector
skyrocketed up, corrected, then moved ahead again in a
sharp June advance. Cyclical stocks-basic materials (such
as paper and forest products, and metals), consumer
cyclicals (such as retail, autos, and hotels), and
capital goods (such as engineering and construction)-had
steep declines. These trends were global in scope (except
for capital goods, which had a moderately good local
currency return in Europe that translated into a
marginally positive return for dollar-based investors).

The result was a net advantage over the six months for
growth-over-value investing, except among small caps
where the most speculative technology stocks fell so much
in March through May that they couldn't catch up in their
June surge. Small-cap energy (excluding integrated oil
companies) and healthcare stocks (the Russell 2000
sectors) had excellent catch-up returns of 52% and 36%,
respectively. Overall, mid-cap stocks had the best
performance of any market capitalization class, with mid-
cap growth stocks the only equity market capitalization
range with strong return.

Note:  The average annual return for the Target
Portfolios assumes the imposition of the maximum Target
advisory fee of 1.5% for stock portfolios and 1.0% for
the bond portfolios.

Performance data represents past performance, and is no
guarantee of future results. Investment return and
principal value will fluctuate, so that an investors
shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than
their original cost.

* The fund's performance was achieved by investing in
technology stocks during a period of unprecedented
returns in that sector of the market. There can be no
assurance that this performance can be repeated in the
future.

1 The inception date for all portfolios is 1/5/93, except
for International Bond, which is 5/17/94. Past
performance is not indicative of future results.

2 Without waiver of management fees and/or expense
subsidization, the Portfolio's Average Annual Total
Returns would have been lower, as indicated in
parentheses (  ).


This pattern was driven by rapid U.S. economic growth,
which led the Federal Reserve to continue to raise
interest rates. Rising interest rates hurt the stocks of
rapidly growing companies whose value lies in their
future earnings: the present value of such future
earnings is reduced in a rising interest rate
environment.

                       2
<PAGE>

Moreover, the fear that rising interest rates would slow
economic growth hurt both growth and cyclical stocks.
Also, a growing global imbalance of supply and demand for
oil created a turnaround in energy. Oil service companies
performed quite well. A shortage of electricity-
generating capacity in the United States, as well as low
inventories of the natural gas that is burned by many new
generation plants, strengthened the domestic utility
sector stocks overall, although some companies remain
vulnerable to rising fuel prices.

Only the Nordic region provided moderately good returns,
led by Sweden. Other than that, the picture was generally
bleak, except for a few scattered individual countries
with good returns: Canada, France, Malaysia, Israel,
Venezuela, and the Czech Republic.

How did our funds perform?
The Large Capitalization Growth Portfolio, managed by
Columbus Circle Investors and Oak Associates, posted a
strong 18.94% return over the six-month review period.
The Portfolio's technology holdings contributed
significantly to the Portfolio's return, and helped it
outperform its peers. In particular, Oak Associates'
semiconductor holdings generated strong returns. When
technology stocks underwent a correction in the second
half of the period, Columbus Circle Investors' emphasis
on the consumer staples, healthcare, and utility stock
sectors helped offset some losses attributable to
technology positions.

Target returns are in boldface type. Total returns assume
the reinvestment of all dividends and distributions, and
take into account all charges and expenses applicable to
an investment in each portfolio, except the annual Target
advisory fee. For retail accounts, the maximum annual
advisory fee is 1.5% of equity portfolio assets and 1.0%
of bond and money market assets. For retirement accounts,
the maximum advisory fees are 1.25% and 1.35%,
respectively. Past performance is not indicative of
future results, and an investor's shares, when redeemed,
may be worth more or less than their original cost.
The Lipper Average is unmanaged. Large-Cap Growth funds
normally invest in companies with long-term earnings
expected to grow significantly faster than the earnings
of stocks represented in a major unmanaged stock index.
Multi-Cap Value funds seek long-term growth of capital by
investing in companies that are considered undervalued
relative to a major unmanaged stock index based on price-
to-earnings, book value, asset value, or other factors.
Small-Cap Growth funds normally invest in companies with
long-term earnings expected to grow significantly faster
than the earnings of stocks represented in a major
unmanaged stock index. Small-Cap Value funds seek long-
term growth of capital by investing in companies that are
considered undervalued relative to a major unmanaged
stock index based on price-to-current earnings, book
value, asset value, or other factors. International funds
invest their assets in securities with primary trading
markets outside the United States. International Income
funds invest primarily in U.S. dollar and non-U.S. dollar
debt securities of issuers located in at least three
countries, excluding the United States, except in periods
of market weakness. Corporate Debt BBB-Rated funds invest
at least 65% of their assets in corporate and government
debt issues rated in the top four credit-quality grades.
Intermediate Investment-Grade Debt funds invest at least
65% of their assets in investment-grade debt issues
(rated in the top four credit-quality grades) with
dollar-weighted average maturities of five to ten years.
U.S. Mortgage funds invest at least 65% of their assets
in mortgages/securities issued or guaranteed as to
principal and interest by the U.S. government and certain
federal agencies. U.S. Government Money Market funds
invest principally in financial instruments issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies or
instrumentalities, with dollar-weighted average
maturities of less than 90 days. These money market funds
intend to keep a constant net asset value (NAV).

Oak Associates' focus on pharmaceutical stocks also
performed well. Both managers had a focus on the
financial sector, which created a drag on performance
when financial stocks fell late in the period in response
to interest rate moves.

The Large Capitalization Value Portfolio, managed by
Mercury Advisors (formerly known as Hotchkis and Wiley)
and J.P. Morgan (which replaced INVESCO in May), lost
7.75% over the six-month review period, and
underperformed its benchmark. The Portfolio's performance
is primarily attributable to (1) the ongoing out-of-favor
status of value stocks, and (2) the managers' strict
adherence to their investment disciplines, which resulted
in a lack of exposure to growth-oriented stocks. (It is
important to note that even value indexes include
positions that are not value oriented. For example,
significant portions of the Russell 1000 Value Index are
exposed to the clearly growth-oriented technology and
healthcare sectors.)

Factors that helped performance included Mercury
Advisors' strong security selection in electric
utilities-which did well when underlying fundamentals for
the group showed considerable improvement-and J.P.
Morgan's emphasis in the capital markets sector. J.P.
Morgan's positions in the energy and consumer staple
sectors also added modestly to returns.

The Small Capitalization Growth Portfolio, managed by
Fleming Asset Management USA and Sawgrass Asset
Management, returned 14.58% over the period,
outperforming its benchmark. Both managers focus on high-
growth companies that are attractively valued. This
strategy worked well for the Portfolio over the six-month
review period, as evidenced by the fact that the
Portfolio's technology holdings were the primary reason
for outperformance during a period of extreme turbulence
in the technology market. During the first three months
of the period, investor enthusiasm drove the technology
market up steeply. A sharp correction
followed as concern grew that stocks in the sector were
highly overvalued. A slight rebound in June did little to
offset the sector's losses. Strong stock selection helped
Fleming's technology position outperform during April's
decline (and June's rebound), while Sawgrass' focus on
semiconductor manufacturers and semiconductor equipment
manufacturers generated strong returns early in the
period. As the period
progressed, Sawgrass actively reduced its
holdings in the sector, given the view that they were
unattractively valued. This step ultimately
preserved first-quarter gains in the wake of the tech
market selloff.

The Small Capitalization Value Portfolio, managed by
Lazard Asset Management and Wood Struthers & Winthrop,
generated a return of 8.70% over the period. In a period
distinguished by the market's shift back to a focus on
company fundamentals, strong stock selection helped the
Portfolio outperform its benchmark. Among Wood Struthers
& Winthrop's top 20
performing holdings, every industry sector was
represented. Most of these stocks advanced due to strong
earnings prospects. Lazard found

                         4
<PAGE>

that stock selection- particularly within the technology,
consumer discretionary, and
producer manufacturing sectors-made the most significant
contribution to return. Both managers have confidence in
the long-term fundamentals of their holdings. They
believe that the market's focus on fundamentals should
persist since, even in a "new economy," a company's true
value is a function of the return it is able to generate
on shareholders' capital.

The International Equity Portfolio, managed by Lazard
Asset Management, returned -4.01% over the period. Wide
recognition of the potential growth prospects of leading
equipment and services companies in the technology,
media, and telecommunications sectors (collectively know
as "TMT") drove the international markets upward early in
the period. However, recognition that stocks within these
sectors had risen to very expensive levels led to a
correction that produced negative six-month returns in
most markets. The Portfolio was able to outperform its
benchmark on a relative basis due to a stock selection
process that focused on companies possessing strong
fundamentals and attractive relative value. In
particular, strong returns were generated within the
technology and auto sectors. However, a large position in
the utility sector detracted significantly from
performance when the market reacted negatively to merger
news. Lazard will continue to seek out relative value
opportunities among traditional companies whose
competitive position and strategic vision will enable
them to excel in the transition to a "new economy." In
addition, the manager will seek to take advantage of the
weakness in TMT to invest in financially productive
companies at attractive prices. Finally, Lazard believes
the market's shift in focus back to fundamentals should
persist since, even in a "new economy," a company's true
value is a function of the return it is able to generate
on shareholders' capital.

A good first half for U.S. Treasuries
Prices of most U.S. Treasury securities climbed during
the first half of 2000, leaving prices of other U.S.
fixed-income securities far behind. Favorable technical
factors and moderating economic growth sparked a rally,
primarily in longer-term Treasuries.
However, Treasuries began 2000 on a weak note. The U.S.
economy had expanded rapidly in late 1999. Investors
therefore feared the Federal Reserve (the "Fed") might
repeatedly increase short-term interest rates to prevent
the economy from exceeding what the central bank believes
to be its speed limit. In anticipation, investors
required higher bond yields, which forced bond prices
lower.

However, the selloff soon turned into a rally-at least
for longer-term Treasuries. The U.S. Treasury Department
cut back issuance of its securities because a growing
federal budget surplus has reduced its borrowing needs.
It also commenced its program to buy back up to $30
billion of older, mostly longer-term Treasuries by the
end of 2000. Taken together, these two developments set
off a stampede to buy longer-term Treasuries.

                          5
<PAGE>
The enthusiasm for longer-term Treasuries faded as it
became clear the Fed's quarter-point rate hikes in
February and March would be
followed by a half-point increase in mid-May. Some
investors worried that the Fed might prove too heavy-
handed and trigger an economic downturn that would sap
corporate earnings. Not surprisingly, prices of
investment-grade and high-yield U.S. corporate bonds were
hit even harder than Treasuries during this time. High-
yield bonds (also known as "junk" bonds) also suffered
because a growing number of companies failed to make
interest and principal payments on their high-yield bonds in May.

Not until reports began to reveal that the economy was
gradually losing steam did prices of U.S. fixed-income
securities once again turn higher. Signs of moderating
economic growth were interpreted to mean that the Fed's
moves to increase interest rates might end. Amid this
change in market sentiment, prices in U.S. debt
securities markets gained in June. Nevertheless, among
U.S. bond markets, the Treasury market finished in first
place for the six-month period, helped by the strong
performance of its longer-term securities earlier in the
year.

Although Treasuries performed impressively, the top
fixed-income market for the first half of 2000 was
emerging market bonds, based on the Lehman Brothers
indexes. They returned a solid 7.59%, as economic
fundamentals in several developing countries proved
stronger than expected. Rising prices of oil, gas, and
other natural resources strengthen the economies of some
developing nations that export these commodities.
Improving economic conditions, in turn, boosted their
foreign currency reserves. Moreover, some countries cut their
financing costs by swapping new bonds for older debt
securities. These positive developments and others
attracted investors to emerging market bonds.

Among nations with developed economies, the government
bond markets of Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom
posted attractive returns on a local currency basis, but
lower returns when expressed in U.S. dollars. Their
central banks, which have repeatedly increased short-term
rates to keep their respective economies from
overheating, are widely believed to be near the end of
their current tightening cycles.

How did our funds perform?
The International Bond Portfolio, managed by Delaware
International Advisors, generated a negative return of
3.15%, underperforming its benchmark. During the period,
factors that helped performance included security choice-
particularly U.S. Treasury TIPS (inflation protection
bonds)-and a moderately short duration. With regard to
specific countries, overweights in Canada, Sweden and the
United States, and underweights in Japan and the United
Kingdom, benefited performance. Conversely, an overweight
position in New Zealand detracted significantly from
performance. Persistent current account deficits and

                           6
<PAGE>
concerns about the economic rigor of the new government
drove the New Zealand dollar down. Although it recovered
slightly later in the period, the benefit to the
Portfolio was minimal.

The Total Return Bond Portfolio and The Intermediate-Term
Bond Portfolio, managed by Pacific Investment Management
Company (PIMCO), returned 3.98% and 3.45%, respectively,
over the period. Both Portfolios outperformed their
benchmarks.

Unequivocally, the strongest contributor to both
Portfolios' returns during the period was the managers'
underweight position in corporate bonds. Corporates
suffered significantly as they lagged Treasuries due to
widening yield premiums. The bulk of the Portfolios'
corporate positions were in mortgage-backed securities,
which were not badly impacted. Additionally, a focus on
shorter-maturity, higher-credit-quality corporates
contributed to performance. Below-investment-grade bonds
underperformed as continued credit concerns offset
relatively high yields.

The Mortgage-Backed Securities Portfolio, managed by
Wellington Management, returned 3.48% over the period,
outperforming its benchmark. The Federal Reserve raised
interest rates by 100 basis points during the period,
pushing short Treasury yields up, while long Treasury
yields fell by nearly 50 basis points over expectations
that the U.S. Treasury's buyback effort would grow in
size. Non-Treasury sectors were the most adversely
affected by this occurrence. However, the manager's
positioning in attractively valued securities-with an
emphasis on Government National Mortgage Association-
issued securities (GNMAs)-proved beneficial to
performance. The mortgage sector followed the same pro-
Treasury theme that impacted the entire bond market; that
is, the further removed a security was from a liquid,
full-faith Treasury, the more detrimental it was to its
performance. Thus, mortgages as a whole underperformed
Treasuries. However, within the mortgage sector itself, a
more interesting story emerged: GNMAs, the lone heirs to
the government's full-faith backing, separated from their
agency counterparts, the Federal National Mortgage
Association (FNMA) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage
Corporation (FHLMC). Fear that a change in FNMA's and
FHLMC's Government Sponsored Entities (GSE) status,
combined with declining new GNMA supply, led GNMAs-in a
rare divergence-to strongly outperform other agency
mortgages in the first quarter of the year. At the end of
the six-month period, GNMAs remained ahead, despite the
recovery of the full mortgage sector in the second
quarter.

The U.S. Government Money Market Portfolio, also managed
by Wellington Management, returned 2.59% over the review
period, underperforming its benchmark. The Federal
Reserve responded to strong economic data early in the
second quarter by aggressively raising short-term rates
50 basis points in mid-May. This was the sixth rate hike
in the current tightening cycle, for a cumulative
increase of 175 basis points in the Fed funds rate since
June of last year. In this environment, most of

                          7
<PAGE>
Wellington's transactions were short term in order to
"rollover" at higher yields. The manager also utilized
term repurchase agreements and opportunistically
purchased securities maturing in one year, which
enhanced the portfolio's return.

Market volatility reinforces need for diversification
There are never any guarantees as to the direction the
financial markets will take. More certain is the fact
that there will always be divergent performance among
asset classes. The behavior of the financial markets over
the past six months underscores this point, and provides
the basis for a strong argument in favor of maintaining a
broadly diversified portfolio.

The Target program was designed to provide you with a
convenient way to access a variety of investments that
can help you meet your diversification needs. Each
portfolio invests in a different asset class, such as
small-capitalization stocks, large-capitalization stocks,
or international bonds. Over time, portfolios that have
broad representation among asset classes have
demonstrated better performance than those that are
concentrated in only one or two asset classes.

In addition, investment decisions for the portfolios
strictly adhere to a portfolio's intended investment
objective. In other words, you won't find the large-
capitalization portfolio investing in small-
capitalization stocks. This commitment to style
consistency is one way you can be assured that your
investment is working the way you intended it to.

During volatile market periods, it's easy to lose sight
of your original investment objectives. The Target
program can help you maintain your investment objectives,
and broaden them as well.

Sincerely,


John R. Strangfeld, President
The Target Portfolio Trust

               THE TARGET PORTFOLIO TRUST
               Notes to Financial Statements
           The Target Portfolio Trust (the 'Fund') is an open-end management
           investment company. The Fund was established as a Delaware business
           trust on July 29, 1992 and consists of ten separate portfolios (the
           'Portfolio' or 'Portfolios'). All the Portfolios are diversified, as
           defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, except for the
           International
Bond Portfolio. Investment operations commenced on January 5, 1993 with the
exception of the International Bond Portfolio which commenced on May 17, 1994.

      The ten Portfolios comprising the Fund and the investment objectives of
each Portfolio are as follows:

Large Capitalization    Long-term capital appreciation through
 Growth Portfolio....   investment primarily in common stocks
                        that, in the investment adviser's opinion,
                        should have earnings growth faster than
                        that of the S&P 500;

Large Capitalization    Total return of capital appreciation and
 Value                  dividend income through investment

 Portfolio...........   common stocks that in the investment
                        adviser's opinion should have earnings

                        economy in general;

Small Capitalization    Above average capital appreciation through
 Value                  investment in common small company stocks
 Portfolio...........   that, in the adviser's opinion, are

                        place;

International Equity    Capital appreciation through investment

                        guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its
                        agencies or instrumentalities.

      The ability of issuers of debt securities (other than those issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. Government) held by the Portfolios to meet their
obligations may be affected by economic or political developments in a specific
industry, region or country.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Note 1. Accounting Policies
      The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by
the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.
      Securities Valuations: Securities, including options, futures contracts
and options thereon, for which the primary market is on a national securities
exchange, commodities exchange or board of trade are valued at the last sale
price on such exchange or board of trade, on the date of valuation or, if there
was no sale on such day, at the average of readily available closing bid and
asked prices on such day.
      Securities, including options, that are actively traded in the
over-the-counter market, including listed securities for which the primary
market is believed to be over-the-counter, are valued at the average of the most
recently quoted bid and asked prices provided by a principal market maker or
dealer.
      U.S. Government securities for which market quotations are available are
valued at a price provided by an independent broker/dealer or pricing service.
      Quotations of foreign securities in a foreign currency are converted to
U.S. dollar equivalents at the current rate obtained from a recognized bank or
dealer.
      Securities for which market quotations are not available, are valued in
good faith under procedures adopted by the Trustees.
      Securities held by the U.S. Government Money Market Portfolio are valued
at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Short-term securities held
by the other portfolios which mature in sixty days or less are valued at
amortized cost which approximates market value. The amortized cost method
involves valuing a security at its cost on the date of purchase and thereafter
assuming a constant amortization to maturity of the difference between the
principal amount due at maturity and cost. Short-term securities held by the
other portfolios which mature in more than sixty days are valued at current
market quotations.
      In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, it is the Fund's
policy that its custodian take possession of the underlying collateral
securities, the value of which exceeds the principal amount of the repurchase
transaction, including accrued interest. If the seller defaults, and the value
of the collateral declines or, if bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with
respect to the seller of the security, realization of the collateral by the Fund
may be delayed or limited.
      All securities (except those of the U.S. Government Money Market
Portfolio) are valued as of 4:15 p.m., New York time. The U.S. Government Money
Market Portfolio calculates net asset value as of 4:30 p.m., New York time.
      Securities Transactions and Net Investment Income: Securities transactions
are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on sales of securities
are calculated on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the
ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. The Fund
amortizes premiums and discounts paid on purchases of portfolio securities as
adjustments to interest income. Expenses are recorded on the accrual basis which
may require the use of certain estimates by management.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                       55
<PAGE>
      Financial Futures Contracts: A financial futures contract is an agreement
to purchase (long) or sell (short) an agreed amount of securities at a set price
for delivery on a future date. Upon entering into a financial futures contract,
the Portfolio is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash and/or other
assets equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount. This amount is
known as the 'initial margin.' Subsequent payments, known as 'variation margin,'
are made or received by the Portfolio each day, depending on the daily
fluctuations in the value of the underlying security. Such variation margin is
recorded for financial statement purposes on a daily basis as unrealized gain or
loss. When the contract expires or is closed, the gain or loss is realized and
is presented in the statement of operations as net realized gain (loss) on
financial futures contracts.

      The Portfolio invests in financial futures contracts in order to hedge its
existing portfolio securities, or securities the Portfolio intends to purchase,
against fluctuations in value caused by changes in prevailing interest rates.
Should interest rates move unexpectedly, the Portfolio may not achieve the
anticipated benefits of the financial futures contracts and may realize a loss.
The use of futures transactions involves the risk of imperfect correlation in
movements in the price of futures contracts, interest rates and the underlying
hedged assets. The International Equity Portfolio, International Bond Portfolio,
Intermediate-Term Bond Portfolio, Mortgage-Backed Securities Portfolio and Total
Return Bond Portfolio are the only portfolios that may invest in financial
futures contracts.
      Foreign Currency Translation: The books and records of the Portfolios are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S.
dollars on the following basis:

      (i) market value of investment securities, other assets and
liabilities--at the closing rates of exchange;

      (ii) purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses--at
the rate of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.

      Although the net assets of the Portfolios are presented at the foreign
exchange rates and market values at the close of the fiscal period, the
Portfolios do not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising as a
result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising
from changes in the market prices of securities held at the end of the fiscal
period. Similarly, the Portfolios do not isolate the effect of changes in
foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market
prices of long-term portfolio securities sold during the fiscal period.
Accordingly, these realized foreign currency gains (losses) are included in the
reported net realized gains (losses) on investment transactions.

      Net realized gains (losses) on foreign currency transactions represent net
foreign exchange gains (losses) from sales and maturities of short-term
securities, holding of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized
between the trade and settlement dates of securities transactions, and the
difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign taxes recorded
on the Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or
paid. Net currency gains and losses from valuing foreign currency denominated
assets and liabilities at period-end exchange rates are reflected as a component
of net unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments and foreign
currencies.

      Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain
considerations and risks not typically associated with those of domestic origin
as a result of, among other factors, the level of governmental supervision and
regulation of foreign securities markets and the possibility of political or
economic instability.
      Foreign Currency Forward Contracts: The International Equity Portfolio,
International Bond Portfolio, Intermediate-Term Bond Portfolio and Total Return
Bond Portfolio may enter into foreign currency forward contracts in order to
hedge their exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates on their
foreign portfolio holdings. A foreign currency forward contract is a commitment
to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated forward
rate. The Portfolio enters into foreign currency forward contracts in order to
hedge its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates on its foreign
portfolio holdings or on specific receivables and payables denominated in a
foreign currency. The contracts are valued daily at current exchange rates and
any unrealized gain or loss is included in net unrealized appreciation or
depreciation on investments. Gain or loss is realized on the settlement date of
the contract equal to the difference between the settlement value of the
original and renegotiated forward contracts. This gain or loss, if any, is
included in net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions. Risks may
arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of the
counter parties to meet the terms of their contracts.
      Short Sales: Certain portfolios of the Fund may sell a security it does
not own in anticipation of a decline in the market value of that security (short
sale). When a Portfolio makes a short sale, it must borrow the security sold
short and deliver it to the buyer. The proceeds of the short sale will be
retained by the broker-dealer through which it made the short sale as collateral
for its obligation to deliver the security upon conclusion of the sale. The
Portfolio may have to pay a fee to borrow the particular security and may be
obligated to remit any interest or dividends received on such borrowed
securities. A gain, limited to the price at which the Portfolio sold the
security short, or a loss, unlimited in magnitude, will be recognized upon the
termination of a short sale if the market price at termination is less than or
greater than, respectively, the proceeds originally received.
      Options: The International Equity Portfolio, the International Bond
Portfolio, the Intermediate-Term Bond Portfolio, the Total Return Bond Portfolio
and the Mortgage-Backed Securities Portfolio may either purchase or write
options in order to hedge against adverse market movements or fluctuations in
value caused by changes in prevailing interest rates or foreign currency
exchange rates with respect to securities or currencies which the Portfolio
currently owns or intends to purchase. When the Portfolio purchases an option,
it pays a premium and an amount equal to that premium is recorded as an
investment. When the Portfolio writes an option, it receives a premium and an
amount equal to that premium is recorded as a liability. The investment or
liability is adjusted daily to reflect the current market value of the option.
If an option expires unexercised, the Fund realizes a gain or loss to the extent
of the premium received or paid. If an option is exercised, the premium received
or paid is an adjustment to the proceeds from the sale or the cost basis of the
purchase in determining whether the Portfolio has realized a gain or loss. The
difference between the premium and the amount received or paid on effecting a
closing purchase or sale transaction is also treated as a realized gain or loss.
Gain or loss on purchased options is included in net realized gain (loss) on
investment transactions. Gain or loss on written options is presented separately
as net realized gain (loss) on written option transactions.
      The Portfolio, as writer of an option, has no control over whether the
underlying securities or currencies may be sold (called) or purchased (put). As
a result, the Portfolio bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the
price of the security or currency underlying the written option. The Portfolio,
as purchaser of an option, bears the risk of the potential inability of the
counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.
      Swaps: The Intermediate-Term Bond Portfolio may enter into a swap in order
to hedge against adverse movements in interest notes. A swap is an agreement
between two parties to exchange a series of cash flows at specified intervals.
Based on a notional amount, each party pays an interest rate or the change in
the value of a security. Dividends and interest on the securities in the swap
are included in the value of the
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                       56

<PAGE>
exchange. The swaps are valued daily at current market value and any unrealized
gain or loss is included in net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on
investments. Gain or loss is realized on the termination date of the swap and is
equal to the difference between the Portfolio's basis in the swap and the
proceeds of the closing transaction, including any fees. During the period that
the swap agreement is open, the Portfolio may be subject to risk from the
potential inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the agreement.
      Reclassification of Capital Accounts: The Fund accounts for and reports
distributions to shareholders in accordance with American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants (AICPA) Statement of Position 93-2: Determination,
Disclosure, and Financial Statement Presentation of Income, Capital Gain, and
Return of Capital Distributions by Investment Companies. Net investment income,
net realized gains and net assets were not affected by this change. For the six
months ended June 30, 2000, the application of this statement resulted in the
following reclassifications:

      Dividends and Distributions: The International Bond Portfolio, Total
Return Bond Portfolio, Intermediate-Term Bond Portfolio and Mortgage Backed
Securities Portfolio declare dividends of their net investment income daily and
pay such dividends monthly. The U.S. Government Money Market Portfolio declares
net investment income and any net capital gain (loss) daily and pays such
dividends monthly. Each other Portfolio declares and pays a dividend of its net
investment income, if any, at least annually. Each Portfolio except for the U.S.
Government Money Market Portfolio declares and pays its net capital gains, if
any, at least annually.
      Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in
accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles.
      Taxes: For federal income tax purposes, each portfolio in the Fund is
treated as a separate tax-paying entity. It is the intent of each Portfolio to
continue to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to
regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable net income
to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.
      Withholding taxes on foreign interest and dividends have been provided for
in accordance with the Portfolios' understanding of the applicable country's tax
rules and rates.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Note 2. Agreements
      The Fund has a management agreement with Prudential Investments Fund
Management LLC ('PIFM') pursuant to which PIFM manages the investment operations
of the Fund, administers the Fund's affairs and is responsible for the
selection, subject to review and approval of the Trustees, of the advisers. PIFM
supervises the advisers' performance of advisery services and makes
recommendations to the Trustees as to whether the advisers' contracts should be
renewed, modified or terminated. PIFM pays for the costs pursuant to the
advisery agreements, the cost of compensation of officers of the Fund, occupancy
and certain clerical and accounting costs of the Fund. The Fund bears all other
costs and expenses.
      The advisers noted below each furnished investment advisery services in
connection with the management of the Portfolios. Effective May 25, 2000, J.P.
Morgan Investment Management, Inc. became the subadviser of the Large
Capitalization Value Portfolio and will serve this portfolio under the same
terms and conditions as under the agreement with INVESCO Capital Management,
Inc. Effective July 1, 2000, Hotchkis and Wiley, the subadviser for the Large
Capitalization Value Portfolio, changed their name to Mercury Advisors. Each of
the two advisers of the domestic equity Portfolios--the Large Capitalization
Growth Portfolio, Large Capitalization Value Portfolio, Small Capitalization
Growth Portfolio and Small Capitalization Value Portfolio--manages approximately
50% of the assets of the respective Portfolio. In general, in order to maintain
an approximately equal division of assets between the two advisers, all daily
cash inflows (i.e., subscriptions and reinvested distributions) and outflows
(i.e., redemptions and expenses items) are divided between the two advisers as
PIFM deems appropriate. In addition, there will be a periodic rebalancing of
each Portfolio's assets to take account of market fluctuations in order to
maintain the approximately equal allocation. As a consequence, each Portfolio
will allocate assets from the better performing of the two advisers to the
other.

      For federal income tax purposes, International Bond Portfolio, Total
Return Bond Portfolio, Intermediate-Term Bond Portfolio and Mortgage Backed
Securities Portfolio had a capital loss carryforward as of December 31, 1999.

shareholders of the International Bond Portfolio, Total Return Bond Portfolio
and Mortgage Backed Securities Portfolio until future net gains have been
realized in excess of such carryforward. In addition, certain Portfolios have
elected to treat net currency losses incurred in the two-month period ended
December 31, 1999 as having occurred in the current fiscal year.
