LETTER TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF THE PIERPONT INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND

December 15, 1995

Dear Shareholder:


International equity markets had a decidedly lackluster year, returning -0.37%
for the 12 months ended October 31, 1995, as measured by the Morgan Stanley
Capital International Europe, Australia, Far East (MSCI EAFE) Index. This
performance is in sharp contrast to the U.S. market, which returned 26.4% for
the same period. While international markets produced a flat return, this masks
the volatility that occurred during the period. In this difficult environment,
The Pierpont International Equity Fund returned -2.71%.

WHAT HAPPENED IN THE MARKETS

Much of the underperformance in international markets came from Japan, which is
the largest country represented in the MSCI EAFE Index. Japan experienced
considerable volatility during the period, dropping significantly early in 1995
and later recovering some of its losses. Hopes of a stable recovery were dashed
in January by the Kobe earthquake, with market confidence additionally shaken by
the government's delay in delivering a reconstruction package. The market was
further undermined by the yen's sharp increase early in 1995, which hurt
Japanese exports and restrained the country's economic growth. However, a
turnaround in the yen's fortune came when the U.S. Federal Reserve lowered
interest rates in July. The Japanese government followed suit and lowered its
rates and then purchased U.S. dollars to support the currency. In combination,
these actions led to a sharp rise in the U.S. dollar's value against the yen,
which helped prompt upward revisions of Japanese corporate earnings estimates
for 1996.

Market results were mixed elsewhere in the Pacific Basin and were largely
determined by concerns over the pace of each country's economic development, the
condition of real estate markets, as well as domestic political issues. For
example, Singapore declined as its exports were compromised by a strengthening
currency, with its domestic consumption dampened by rising interest rates.

In Europe, the relative strength of the deutsche mark early in the period
dampened German exports. This, coupled with a slowdown in economic growth, led
to interest rate cuts by the Bundesbank and the central banks of other European
countries, including Switzerland, Belgium, and the Netherlands. In addition, the

rise of the U.S. dollar helped to increase foreign demand for European goods. As
a result most major markets had positive returns for the period.

DOES INTERNATIONAL INVESTING STILL MAKE SENSE?

We believe the answer is "yes." The case can be stated simply: over the long
term, the equity markets of the major industrialized nations can be expected to
have similar returns, but at different times. Therefore, by diversifying broadly
to minimize risk and using active management in an effort to take advantage of
the inevitable misvaluations that arise in and among markets, investors can
expect attractive returns over the long term.

AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS OF U.S. VERSUS INTERNATIONAL MARKETS
(AS OF OCTOBER 31, 1995)
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                        1-YEAR    2-YEARS   3-YEARS   5-YEARS   10-YEARS
S&P 500                  26.4%     14.6%     14.7%     17.3%     15.5%
MSCI EAFE Index          -0.4       4.7      14.7       7.0      13.8


As the accompanying table shows, foreign investing has no doubt been
frustrating for the past two years, as U.S. stocks outperformed their
international counterparts (even though over a 10-year period, the MSCI EAFE
Index produced better returns). Contributing to these markets' recent
relative underperformance is the fact that, within EAFE, certain key markets,
most notably Japan, and more recently France, have experienced waves of
negative sentiment (in the case of Japan, lasting for several years), which
test even the most patient investor.

For many investors, such relative underperformance will undoubtedly raise the
question, "Why should I continue to participate in international markets?" Some
investors may conclude that this may be a good time to enter international
markets simply because they have undergone a decline and have the potential for
a significant turnaround. We, on the other hand, would not endorse this view
solely on the basis that international stocks underperformed. Based on our
global perspective, our analysis indicates that U.S. stocks are somewhat
overvalued, while international stocks are at more attractive price levels. We
would consequently recommend that investors maintain their international
exposure as part of a fully diversified portfolio that is designed to dampen
overall investment risk and capture value throughout the world's capital
markets.

WHAT MAY I REASONABLY EXPECT FROM INTERNATIONAL MARKETS?

Our view of international markets may be summarized as follows:

- -    The very fact of recent U.S. outperformance versus international markets
     should encourage investors worldwide to maintain their international
     allocations. As mentioned previously, we believe the long-term performance
     of the international markets and the U.S. markets should be very similar
     for fundamental reasons. Therefore, one would expect that periods of
     international underperformance (versus the U.S.) will eventually be
     followed by periods of international outperformance.

<PAGE>

- -    Looking at specific countries, our analysis and research point to some
     attractively valued markets. Japan has experienced positive returns of late
     -- up 21.6% from the end of June to October 31, 1995. We believe corporate
     earnings will continue to improve, and that the yen will continue to fall
     relative to the dollar, improving exports. The extreme negative sentiment
     that Japan has experienced for several years may, as a result, be beginning
     to dissipate.

     France appears to us to be Europe's most reasonably valued equity market.
     The political situation in France is quite unsettled, with severe labor
     difficulties and consequent fiscal and economic uncertainty. As a result,
     the market may experience short-term fluctuations. In any event, we intend
     to be guided by our view of long-term value, and we believe that France
     could produce very attractive returns for Fund shareholders.

WHAT ARE THE OTHER TOOLS FOR ADDING VALUE?

Besides trying to add value by modestly overweighting those countries (like
Japan and France), which appear undervalued on a long-term basis, we concentrate
the bulk of our efforts on stock selection -- that is, attempting to outperform
each of the local markets in which we invest by purchasing the most undervalued
stocks. We believe that stock selection has the most consistently reliable
potential to add value. We are pleased to report that stock selection had a
positive impact on the Fund's performance this year.

In addition, we actively manage currency exposure in an attempt to protect the
Fund's returns. Our team of currency specialists had expected the yen to decline
in value against the U.S. dollar. This decline actually began in mid-1995, and
our decision to partially hedge our yen exposure into the U.S. dollar began to
add value during the third quarter.

OUR APPROACH TO IDENTIFYING VALUE

The Non-U.S. Equity Portfolio in which the Fund invests utilizes Morgan's in-
depth research to identify long-term value in international investments. For
example, if our analysis indicates that an asset has a long-term value of "X,"
but is selling for significantly less, we would be inclined to buy it.
Sometimes, the asset may be selling at a discount to long-term value because the
market in which it trades is excessively pessimistic -- discouraged by recent
poor returns or other forms of fear and emotion. Eventually, and we cannot
accurately predict when (nor do we believe, by the way, that anyone else can
consistently either), this pessimism reverses itself, and the market price for
that asset returns to its true value. When the asset does rise close to its true
value, our strategy is to sell it and look for value elsewhere.

Of course, one's conviction in such an approach can be sorely tested by the
market. While we may feel the asset is worth "X," the market could price it even
lower than the purchase price several months later. Under this circumstance, we
reexamine whether we still believe the asset holds fundamental value. If so, we
patiently hold our position, confident that the reversal of emotions will
eventually occur. It is this reversal of emotion, which has happened many times
before, that has caused positive returns to be realized. Thus, we believe, being
prepared to endure inevitable periods of frustration in the prudent pursuit of
long-term returns is the very essence of being a long-term investor. This is the
Fund's current situation, but we remain confident the fundamental values we
identify should be realized.



                                                                               3

<PAGE>

A WORD ON RISK CONTROL

If a manager's insights about the future were always correct, there would be no
need for risk control. But no manager possesses a perfect crystal ball. We are
confident in our long-term views, but we believe it is prudent to practice a
disciplined and rigorous form of risk control. We diversify the portfolio
broadly. We evaluate the size of our active positions relative both to their
return potential and their riskiness. The riskier decisions, such as country
allocation, are subject to strict constraints. The benefits of risk control are
especially beneficial during those inevitable periods when a manager is out of
sync with the market, or just plain wrong.

WHAT LIES AHEAD FOR INTERNATIONAL MARKETS?

Although international equity markets in general underperformed the U.S. market
for the Fund's fiscal year, our valuation analysis indicates that foreign stocks
are currently slightly more attractively priced than U.S. stocks. On a longer
term basis, we continue to believe that international investing has the
potential to provide investors with attractive returns and still makes sense as
part of a fully diversified portfolio.

To take advantage of anticipated market conditions, in Europe, the Portfolio has
moved to a slight overweighting in Germany relative to the MSCI EAFE Index as
valuations there look reasonable. While the near-term situation in France
remains unsettled, our analysis continues to highlight France as the region's
most attractive equity market. We are consequently maintaining the Portfolio's
slight overweighting in France. The U.K. market continues to be strong, and we
plan to maintain the Portfolio's neutral position as long as valuations are not
excessive.

Given reasonable stock valuations and improving investor sentiment, we plan to
maintain the Portfolio's current overweighting of Japan. The most important
aspect of that market at present is the currency, which the government had given
indications of guiding to a weaker position versus the U.S. dollar. Investors
are also focusing less on government action and more on corporate earnings
estimates, which continue to improve. Concerns about the health of the banking
sector persist but appear to be priced into the market. We continue to believe
that the yen is somewhat overvalued relative to the dollar. Accordingly, we
expect to further reduce the Portfolio's yen exposure going forward.

Turning to the Pacific Rim, we expect to maintain the Portfolio's slightly
underweighted positions in Hong Kong and Singapore. We also expect to further
reduce its position in Malaysia, which is currently underweighted.

FUND PERFORMANCE


EXAMINING PERFORMANCE
There are several ways to evaluate a mutual fund's historical performance
record. One approach is to look at the growth of a hypothetical investment. The
minimum initial investment in the Fund is $100,000. The chart at right shows
that the minimum invested at the Fund's inception would have grown to $118,541
at October 31, 1995.

Another way to look at performance is to review a fund's average annual total
return. This figure takes the fund's actual (or cumulative) return and shows you
what would have happened if the fund had achieved that return by performing at a
constant rate each year. Average annual total returns represent the average
yearly change of a fund's value over various time periods, typically 1, 5, or 10
years (or since inception). Total returns for periods of less than one year are
not annualized and provide a picture of how a fund has performed over the short
term.

OCTOBER 31, 1995
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.  ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Pierpont International Equity Fund (the "Fund") is a separate series of The
Pierpont Funds, a Massachusetts business trust (the "Trust") which was organized
on November 4, 1992. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended, as a diversified open-end management investment company. The
Fund, prior to its tax-free reorganization on October 3, 1993, to a series of
the Trust, operated as a stand-alone mutual fund. Costs related to the
reorganization were borne by Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York
("Morgan"). This report includes periods which preceded the Fund's
reorganization and reflects the operations of the predecessor entity.

The Fund invests all of its investable assets in The Non-U.S. Equity Portfolio
(the "Portfolio"), a diversified open-end management investment company having
the same investment objectives as the Fund. The value of such investment
reflects the Fund's proportionate interest in the net assets of the Portfolio
(29% at October 31, 1995). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by
the performance of the Portfolio. The financial statements of the Portfolio,
including the schedule of investments, are included elsewhere in this report and
should be read in conjunction with the Fund's financial statements.

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund:

    a)Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is discussed in Note 1 of the
      Portfolio's Notes to Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in
      this report.

    b)The Fund records its share of net investment income, realized and
      unrealized gain and loss and adjusts its investment in the Portfolio each
      day. All the net investment income and realized and unrealized gain and
      loss of the Portfolio is allocated pro rata among the Fund and other
      investors in the Portfolio at the time of such determination.

    c)Distributions to shareholders of net investment income and net realized
      capital gains, if any, are declared and paid annually.

    d)Each series of the Trust is treated as a separate entity for federal
      income tax purposes. The Fund intends to comply with the provisions of the
      Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated
      investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its income,
      including net realized capital gains, if any, within the prescribed time
      periods. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is
      necessary.

    e)The costs incurred by the predecessor entity in connection with its
      organization are being amortized over a period not to exceed 60 months
      from its commencement of operations.

    f)Expenses incurred by the Trust with respect to any two or more funds in
      the Trust are allocated in proportion to the net assets of each fund in
      the Trust, except where allocations of direct expenses to each fund can
      otherwise be made fairly. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are
      charged to that fund.

    g)The Fund accounts for and reports distributions to shareholders in
      accordance with Statement of Position 93-2 "Determination, Disclosure, and
      Financial Statement Presentation of Income, Capital

                                                                              13

      Gain, and Return of Capital Distributions by Investment Companies". The
      effect of applying this statement was to decrease Paid-in Capital by
      $88,253, decrease Accumulated Net Realized Gain on Investment and Foreign
      Currency Transactions by $601,774, and increase Undistributed Net
      Investment Income by $690,027. The adjustments are attributable to foreign
      currency gains and tax treatment of partnership allocations of capital
      gains and losses. Net investment income, net realized gains and net assets
      were not affected by this change.

2.  TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

    a)The Trust retains Signature Broker-Dealer Services, Inc. ("Signature") to
      serve as Administrator and Distributor. Signature provides administrative
      services necessary for the operations of the Fund, furnishes office space
      and facilities required for conducting the business of the Fund and pays
      the compensation of the Fund's officers affiliated with Signature. The
      agreement provides for a fee to be paid to Signature at an annual rate
      determined by the following schedule: 0.04% of the first $1 billion of the
      aggregate average daily net assets of the Trust, as well as the net assets
      of two other affiliated fund families for which Signature acts as
      administrator, 0.032% of the next $2 billion of such net assets, 0.024% of
      the next $2 billion of such net assets, and 0.016% of such net assets in
      excess of $5 billion. The daily equivalent of the fee rate is applied each
      day to the net assets of the Fund. For the fiscal year ended October 31,
      1995, Signature's fee for these services amounted to $52,698.

    b)During the period November 1, 1994, through August 31, 1995, the Trust, on
      behalf of the Fund, had a Financial and Fund Accounting Services Agreement
      ("Services Agreement") with Morgan under which Morgan received a fee,
      based on the percentages described below, for overseeing certain aspects
      of the administration and operation of the Fund and which was also
      designed to provide an expense limit for certain expenses of the Fund.
      This fee was calculated exclusive of the shareholder servicing fee, the
      fund services fee and amortization of organization expenses at 0.223% of
      the Fund's average daily net assets up to and including $100 million and
      0.20% of any excess over $100 million. For the period November 1, 1994,
      through August 31, 1995, the fee for these services amounted to $210,123.
      Effective September 1, 1995, the Services Agreement was terminated and an
      interim agreement was entered into between the Trust, on behalf of the
      Fund, and Morgan which provides for the continuation of the oversight
      services that were outlined under the prior agreement and that Morgan
      shall bear all of its expenses incurred in connection with these services.
      In addition, Morgan has agreed to reimburse the Fund to the extent
      necessary to maintain the total operating expenses of the Fund, including
      the expenses allocated to the Fund from the Portfolio, at no more than
      1.38% of the average daily net assets of the Fund through at least October
      31, 1995. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 1995, Morgan has agreed to
      reimburse the Fund $4,841 for expenses under this agreement.

    c)The Trust, on behalf of the Fund, has a Shareholder Servicing Agreement
      with Morgan. The Agreement provides for the Fund to pay Morgan a fee for
      these services which is computed daily and may be paid monthly at an
      annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund. For the
      fiscal year ended October 31, 1995, the fee for these services amounted to
      $479,112.

    d)The Trust, on behalf of the Fund, has a Fund Services Agreement with
      Pierpont Group, Inc. ("Group") to assist the Trustees in exercising their
      overall supervisory responsibilities for the Trust's affairs. The Trustees
      of the Trust represent all the existing shareholders of Group. The Fund's
      allocated portion of Group's costs in performing its services amounted to
      $18,131 for the fiscal year ended October 31, 1995.

    e)An aggregate annual fee of $65,000 is paid to each Trustee for serving as
      a Trustee of the Pierpont Funds, the JPM Institutional Funds, and their
      corresponding Portfolios. The Trustees' Fees and Expenses shown in the
      financial statements represent the Fund's allocated portion of the total
      fees and expenses. Prior to April 1, 1995, the aggregate annual fee paid
      to each Trustee was $55,000. The Trustee who serves as Chairman and Chief
      Executive Officer of these Funds and Portfolios also serves as Chairman of
      Group and received compensation and employee benefits from Group in his
      role as Group's Chairman. The allocated portion of such compensation and
      benefits included in the Funds Services Fee shown in the financial
      statements was $2,300.

3.  TRANSACTIONS IN SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST

    The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number
    of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest of one or more series.
    Transactions in shares of beneficial interest of the Fund were as follows:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Trustees and Shareholders of
The Pierpont International Equity Fund

In  our opinion,  the accompanying statement  of assets and  liabilities and the
related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the  financial
highlights  present fairly, in all material  respects, the financial position of
The Pierpont International Equity Fund (one  of the series constituting part  of
the  Pierpont Funds, hereafter referred  to as the "Fund")  at October 31, 1995,
the results of its operations  for the year then ended,  the changes in its  net
assets  for each of  the two years in  the period then  ended, and the financial
highlights for each of the three years  in the period then ended, in  conformity
with  generally accepted  accounting principles. These  financial statements and
financial highlights (hereafter referred to  as "financial statements") are  the
responsibility  of the  Fund's management; our  responsibility is  to express an
opinion on these  financial statements  based on  our audits.  We conducted  our
audits  of  these financial  statements  in accordance  with  generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we  plan and perform the audits to  obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the  amounts  and  disclosures  in  the  financial  statements,  assessing   the
accounting  principles used  and significant  estimates made  by management, and
evaluating the overall  financial statement  presentation. We  believe that  our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above. The financial
highlights  for each of the two years in  the period ended October 31, 1992 were
audited by other independent  accountants whose report  dated December 23,  1992
expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.

THE NON-U.S. EQUITY PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 1995
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

   The Non-U.S. Equity Portfolio (the "Portfolio") is registered under the
   Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (the "Act") as a no-load,
   diversified, open-end management investment company which was organized as a
   trust under the laws of the State of New York. The Portfolio commenced
   operations on October 4, 1993 and received a contribution of certain assets
   and liabilities, including securities, with a value of $160,213,973 on that
   date from the Pierpont International Equity Fund, Inc. in exchange for a
   beneficial interest in the Portfolio. At that date, net unrealized
   appreciation of $11,116,204 was included in the contributed securities. The
   Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of
   beneficial interests in the Portfolio.

   The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the
   Portfolio:

    a)The value of each security for which readily available market quotations
      exists is based on a decision as to the broadest and most representative
      market for such security. The value of such security will be based either
      on the last sale price on a national securities exchange, or, in the
      absence of recorded sales, at the readily available closing bid price on
      such exchanges, or at the quoted bid price in the over-the-counter market.
      Securities listed on a foreign exchange are valued at the last quoted sale
      price available before the time when net assets are valued. Unlisted
      securities are valued at the average of the quoted bid and asked prices in
      the over-the-counter market. Securities or other assets for which market
      quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value in
      accordance with procedures established by the Portfolio's Trustees. Such
      procedures include the use of independent pricing services, which use
      prices based upon yields or prices of securities of comparable quality,
      coupon, maturity and type; indications as to values from dealers; and
      general market conditions. All portfolio securities with a remaining
      maturity of less than 60 days are valued by the amortized cost method.

      Trading in securities on most foreign exchanges and over-the-counter
      markets is normally completed before the close of the domestic market and
      may also take place on days on which the domestic market is closed. If
      events materially affecting the value of foreign securities occur between
      the time when the exchange on which they are traded closes and the time
      when the Portfolio's net asset value is calculated, such securities will
      be valued at fair value in accordance with procedures established by and
      under the general supervision of the Portfolio's Trustees.

      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 possibility of political
      or economic instability and the level of governmental supervision and the
      regulation of foreign securities markets.

    b)The books and records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollars. The
      market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities and
      forward contracts stated in foreign currencies are translated at the
      prevailing exchange rates at the end of the period. Purchases, sales,
      income and expense are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the
      respective dates of such transactions. Translation gains and losses
      resulting from changes in the exchange rate during the reporting period
      and gains and losses realized upon settlement of foreign currency
      transactions are

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      reported in the Statement of Operations. Since the net assets of the
      Portfolio are presented at the exchange rates and market values prevailing
      at the end of the period, the Portfolio does not isolate the portion of
      the results of operations arising as a result of changes in foreign
      exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market
      prices of securities during the period.

    c)The Portfolio may enter into forward and spot foreign currency contracts
      to protect securities and related receivables and payables against
      fluctuations in future foreign currency rates. A forward contract is an
      agreement to buy or sell currencies of different countries on a specified
      future date at a specified rate. Risks associated with such contracts
      include the movement in the value of the foreign currency relative to the
      U.S. dollar and the ability of the counterparty to perform.

      The market value of the contract will fluctuate with changes in currency
      exchange rates. Contracts are valued daily based on procedures established
      by and under the general supervision of the Portfolio's Trustees and the
      change in the market value is recorded by the Portfolio as unrealized
      appreciation or depreciation of foreign currency translations. At October
      31, 1995, the Portfolio had open foreign currency contracts as follows:

</TABLE>

    d)Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Dividend
      income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or at the time that the
      relevant ex-dividend date and amount becomes known. Interest income, which
      includes the amortization of premiums and discounts, if any, is recorded
      on an accrual basis. For financial and tax reporting purposes, realized
      gains and losses are determined on the basis of specific lot
      identification.

    e)The Portfolio intends to be treated as a partnership for federal income
      tax purposes. As such, each investor in the Portfolio will be taxable on
      its share of the Portfolio's ordinary income and capital gains. It is
      intended that the Portfolio's assets will be managed in such a way that an
      investor in the Portfolio will be able to satisfy the requirements of
      Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. The Portfolio earns foreign
      income which may be subject to foreign withholding taxes at various rates.

2.  TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

    a)The Portfolio has an investment advisory agreement with Morgan Guaranty
      Trust Company of New York ("Morgan"). Under the terms of the investment
      advisory agreement, the Portfolio pays Morgan at an annual rate of 0.60%
      of the Portfolio's average daily net assets. For the fiscal year ended
      October 31, 1995, such fees amounted to $3,174,965.

    b)The Portfolio retains Signature Broker-Dealer Services, Inc. ("Signature")
      to serve as Administrator and exclusive placement agent. Signature
      provides administrative services necessary for the operations of the
      Portfolio, furnishes office space and facilities required for conducting
      the business of the Portfolio and pays the compensation of the Portfolio's
      officers affiliated with Signature. The agreement provides for a fee to be
      paid to Signature at an annual rate determined

                                                                              35

THE NON-U.S. EQUITY PORTFOLIO

      by the following schedule: 0.01% of the first $1 billion of the aggregate
      average daily net assets of the Portfolio and the other portfolios subject
      to the Administrative Services Agreement, 0.008% of the next $2 billion of
      such net assets, 0.006% of the next $2 billion of such net assets, and
      0.004% of such net assets in excess of $5 billion. The daily equivalent of
      the fee rate is applied each day to the net assets of the Portfolio. For
      the fiscal year ended October 31, 1995, such expenses amounted to $31,500.

    c)During the period November 1, 1994 through August 31, 1995, the Portfolio
      had a Financial and Fund Accounting Services Agreement ("Services
      Agreement") with Morgan under which Morgan received a fee, based on the
      percentages described below, for overseeing certain aspects of the
      administration and operation of the Portfolio and which was also designed
      to provide an expense limit for certain expenses of the Portfolio. This
      fee was calculated exclusive of the advisory fee, custody expenses, fund
      services fee, and brokerage costs at 0.15% of the Portfolio's average
      daily net assets up to $200 million, 0.10% on the next $200 million of
      average daily net assets, 0.05% of the next $200 million of average daily
      assets and 0.03% on any excess over $600 million. During the period
      November 1, 1994, through August 31, 1995, the fee for these services
      amounted to $349,443. Effective September 1, 1995, the Services Agreement
      was terminated and an interim agreement was entered into between the
      Portfolio and Morgan which provides for the continuation of the oversight
      services that were outlined under the prior agreement and that Morgan
      shall bear all of its expenses incurred in connection with these services.

    d)The Portfolio has a Fund Services Agreement with Pierpont Group, Inc.
      ("Group") to assist the Trustees in exercising their overall supervisory
      responsibilities for the Portfolio's affairs. The Trustees of the
      Portfolio represent all the existing shareholders of Group. The
      Portfolio's allocated portion of Group's costs in performing its services
      amounted to $48,442 for the fiscal year ended October 31, 1995.

    e)An aggregate annual fee of $65,000 is paid to each Trustee for serving as
      a Trustee of the Pierpont Funds, The JPM Institutional Funds, and their
      corresponding Portfolios. The Trustees' Fees and Expenses shown in the
      financial statements represent the Portfolio's allocated portion of the
      total fees and expenses. Prior to April 1, 1995, an aggregate annual fee
      of $55,000 was paid to each Trustee. The Trustee who serves as Chairman
      and Chief Executive Officer of these Funds and Portfolios also serves as
      Chairman of Group and received compensation and employee benefits from
      Group in his role as Group's Chairman. The allocated portion of such
      compensation and benefits included in the Fund Services Fee shown in the
      financial statements was $6,200.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Trustees and Shareholders of
The Non-U.S. Equity Portfolio

In  our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the schedule of  investments, and the  related statements of  operations and  of
changes in net assets and the supplementary data present fairly, in all material
respects,   the  financial  position  of  The  Non-U.S.  Equity  Portfolio  (the
"Portfolio") at October  31, 1995, the  results of its  operations for the  year
then  ended, the  changes in its  net assets  for each of  the two  years in the
period then ended, and the supplementary data  for each of the two years in  the
period  then  ended  and  for  the  period  October  4,  1993  (commencement  of
operations) through  October 31,  1993, in  conformity with  generally  accepted
accounting   principles.  These  financial  statements  and  supplementary  data
(hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of  the
Portfolio's  management; our  responsibility is to  express an  opinion on these
financial statements  based on  our audits.  We conducted  our audits  of  these
financial  statements in  accordance with generally  accepted auditing standards
which require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the  financial statements  are free of  material misstatement.  An
audit  includes examining, on a test  basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in  the financial  statements, assessing  the accounting  principles
used  and significant estimates  made by management,  and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation.  We believe  that our  audits, which  included
confirmation  of  securities  at October  31,  1995 by  correspondence  with the
custodian and brokers  and the  application of  alternative auditing  procedures
where  confirmations from brokers were not  received, provide a reasonable basis
for the opinion expressed above.
