                     predecessor limited partnership for periods before the TCW
                     Galileo Funds' registration became effective. The
                     predecessor limited partnerships were not registered under
                     the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940
                     act"), and, therefore were not subject to certain
                     investment restrictions that are imposed by the 1940 Act.
                     if the limited partnership had been registered under the
                     1940 act, the limited partnership's performance may have
                     been lower.

Nine funds (TCW Galileo Aggressive Growth Equities Fund, TCW Galileo Large Cap
Growth Fund, TCW Galileo Large Cap Value Fund, TCW Galileo Select Equities Fund,
TCW Galileo Small Cap Growth Fund, TCW Galileo Core Fixed Income Fund, TCW
Galileo High Yield Bond Fund, TCW Galileo Total Return Mortgage-Backed
Securities Fund and TCW Galileo European Equities Fund) offer two classes of
shares, Institutional Class shares and Advisory Class shares. Shares of each
class of the Funds represent an equal pro rata interest in the Funds and
generally give the shareholder the same voting, dividend, liquidation, and other
rights. The Institutional Class shares are offered at the current net asset
value. The Advisory Class shares are also offered at the current net asset
value, but are subject to fees imposed under a distribution plan adopted
pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act.

Note 2 -- Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies which are in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and which are
consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial
statements. The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements.

Principles of Accounting:  The Funds use the accrual method of accounting for
financial reporting purposes.

Security Valuations:  The value of securities held in the TCW Galileo Money
Market Fund is determined by using the amortized cost method applied to each
individual security unless, due to special circumstances, the use of such a
method would result in a valuation that does not approximate fair market value.
All other securities, including the bond fund securities, for which
over-the-counter market quotations are readily available, are valued at the
latest bid price prior to the time of valuation.

                                                                          [LOGO]

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                                                                  April 30, 2000

Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, including
circumstances under which it is determined by the Advisor that sale or bid
prices are not reflective of a security's market value, are valued at their fair
value as determined in good faith under procedures established by and under the
general supervision of the Company's Board of Directors.

For Funds other than the TCW Galileo Money Market Fund, short-term debt
securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less at the time of purchase
are valued at amortized cost. Other short-term debt securities are valued on a
marked-to-market basis until such time as they reach a remaining maturity of 60
days, whereupon they will be valued at amortized value using their value on the
61st day prior to maturity.

Security Transactions and Related Investment Income:  Security transactions are
recorded as of the trade date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis.
The TCW Galileo Core Fixed Income Fund and the TCW Galileo High Yield Bond Fund
recognize as interest income discounts on securities purchased using a constant
yield to maturity accretion method. Original issue discount is accreted as
interest income using a constant yield to maturity method. Premiums on
securities purchased are not amortized, except for mortgage backed obligations
for which amortization has been elected as allowed by federal income tax
regulations and securities held by the TCW Galileo Core Fixed Income Fund.
Realized gains and losses on investments are recorded on the basis of specific
identification.

Foreign Currency Translation:  The books and records of each Fund are maintained
in U.S. dollars as follows: (1) the foreign currency market value of investment
securities, and other assets and liabilities stated in foreign currencies, are
translated using the daily spot rate; and (2) purchases, sales, income and
expenses are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing on the respective
dates of such transactions. The resultant exchange gains and losses are included
in the Statements of Operations with the related net realized gain (loss).
Pursuant to U.S. federal income tax regulations, certain foreign exchange gains
and losses included in realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in,
or are a reduction of, ordinary income for federal income tax purposes. It is
not practicable to separately identify that portion of gains and losses of the
Funds that arise as a result of changes in the exchange rates from the
fluctuations that arise from changes in market prices of investments during the
year.

Dollar Roll Transactions:  The Funds may enter into dollar roll transactions
with financial institutions to take advantage of opportunities in the mortgage
backed securities market. A dollar roll transaction involves a simultaneous sale
by the Fund of securities that it holds with an agreement to repurchase
substantially similar securities at an agreed upon price and date, but generally
will be collateralized at time of delivery by different pools of mortgages with
different prepayment histories than those securities sold. These transactions
are accounted for as financing transactions as opposed to sales and purchases.
The differential between the sale price and the repurchase price is recorded as
deferred income and recognized between the settlement dates of the sale and
repurchase. During the period between the sale and repurchase, the Fund will not
be entitled to receive interest and principal payments on the securities sold.
Dollar roll transactions involve risk that the market value of the security sold
by the Fund may decline below the repurchase price of the security. There were
no such transactions outstanding as of April 30, 2000.

Repurchase Agreements:  The Funds may invest in repurchase agreements secured by
U.S. Government obligations and by other securities. Securities pledged as
collateral for repurchase agreements are held by the Funds' custodian bank until
maturity of the repurchase agreements.

                                                                              33

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

     Note 2 -- Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

     Provisions of the agreements ensure that the market value of the collateral
     is sufficient in the event of default; however, in the event of default or
     bankruptcy by the other party to the agreements, realization and/or
     retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.

     Security Lending: The Funds may lend their securities to qualified brokers.
     The loans are collateralized at all times with cash or securities with a
     market value at least equal to the market value of the securities on loan.
     As with any extensions of credit, the Funds may bear the risk of delay in
     recovery or even loss of rights in the collateral if the borrowers of the
     securities fail financially. The Funds receive compensation for lending
     their securities (see Note 3).

     Options: Premiums received from call options written are recorded as a
     liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently adjusted to reflect
     the current market value of the option written. If the option expires
     unexercised, premiums received are realized as a gain at expiration date.
     If the position is closed prior to expiration, a gain or loss is realized
     based on premiums received, less the cost to close the option. When an
     option is exercised, premiums received are added to the proceeds from the
     sale of the underlying securities and a gain or loss is realized. Call
     options purchased are accounted for in the same manner as portfolio
     securities. The cost of securities acquired through the exercise of call
     options is increased by premiums paid. There were no option contracts
     entered into during the six months ended April 30, 2000.

     Allocation of Operating Activity: Investment income, common expenses and
     realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated among the classes of
     shares of the Funds based on the relative net assets of each class.
     Distribution fees, which are directly attributable to a class of shares,
     are charged to that class' operations. All other expenses are charged to
     each Fund as incurred on a specific identification basis.

     Net Asset Value: The Net Asset Value of each Fund's shares is determined by
     dividing the net assets of the Fund by the number of issued and outstanding
     shares on each business day as of 9:00 A.M. Pacific Standard Time for the
     TCW Galileo Money Market Fund and as of 1:00 P.M. Pacific Standard Time for
     the other Funds.

     Dividends and Distributions: Dividends from net investment income of the
     TCW Galileo Money Market Fund are declared each business day. The other
     fixed income funds declare and pay, or reinvest, dividends from net
     investment income monthly. Distribution of any net long-term and net short-
     term capital gains earned by a Fund will be distributed at least annually.

     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, market discount, losses deferred to wash
     sales and excise tax regulations. Permanent book and tax basis differences
     relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to
     paid in capital and may affect net investment income per share.
     Undistributed net investment income may include temporary book and tax
     basis differences which will reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable
     income or gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the following
     year.

     Use of Estimates: The preparation of the accompanying financial statements
     requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
     reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
     statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the
     reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Note 4 -- Federal Income Taxes

It is the policy of each Fund to comply with the requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all
of its net taxable income, including any net realized gains on investments, to
its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. At
April 30, 2000, net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments for
federal income tax purposes was as follows (amounts in thousands):

     Notes 5-- Fund Expenses (Continued)

     Prior to January 15, 2000, the TCW Galileo Mortgage-Backed Securities Fund
     paid to the Advisor an annual management fee of 0.50% of the daily net
     assets.

     The ordinary operating expenses of the TCW Galileo Money Market Fund are
     limited to 0.40% of the Fund's daily net assets. The ordinary operating
     expenses (each share class) of the other funds are limited to the average
     of the total expense ratios as reported by Lipper Analytical Services, Inc.
     for each Fund's respective investment objective, which is subject to change
     on a monthly basis. At April 30, 2000, the average expense ratios reported
     by Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. as they relate to each fund were:

          TCW Galileo Core Fixed Income Fund                         1.00%
          TCW Galileo High Yield Bond Fund                           1.30%
          TCW Galileo Mortgage-Backed Securities Fund                1.00%
          TCW Galileo Total Return Mortgage-Backed Securities Fund   1.00%

     Prior to January 15, 2000, the ordinary operating expenses of the TCW
     Galileo Mortgage-Backed Securities Fund were limited to 0.53% of daily net
     assets.

     Certain officers and/or directors of the Company are officers and/or
     directors of the Advisor.

     Note 6 -- Distribution Plan

     The Company has a distribution plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940
     Act with respect to the Advisory Class shares of each Fund. Under the terms
     of the Distribution Plan, each Fund compensates the distributor at a rate
     equal to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund attributable to
     its Advisory Class shares for distribution and related services.
     Distribution fees for the six months ended April 30, 2000 were less than
     $1,000 for the TCW Galileo Core Fixed Income Fund and TCW Galileo Total
     Return Mortgage-Backed Securities Fund and as a result, are not disclosed
