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.
2
<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.

<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.
As always, we welcome your comments or questions. Please call J.P. Morgan Funds

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.

THE PIERPONT INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
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

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.

of the Trust represent all the existing shareholders of Group. The Fund's

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.

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
34
<PAGE>
THE NON-U.S. EQUITY PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
OCTOBER 31, 1995
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
OCTOBER 31, 1995
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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.
