THE PANAGORA INSTITUTIONAL FUNDS
SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT
NOVEMBER 30, 1996
The PanAgora Institutional Funds
President's Letter
January 8, 1997
Dear Fellow Shareholders:
We are pleased to present the semi-annual report of The PanAgora Institutional
Funds. The PanAgora Institutional Funds were established in 1993 to provide
investors with investment vehicles in the form of mutual funds implementing
specific investment strategies. The PanAgora Institutional Funds make these
strategies available to smaller pension funds, foundations and endowments,
401(k) plans and individual investors.
The PanAgora Institutional Funds is a series of funds. The PanAgora Asset
Allocation Fund invests in a mixture of U.S. stocks, bonds and cash equivalents.
The PanAgora International Equity Fund invests in stocks outside the U.S.
PANAGORA ASSET ALLOCATION FUND
The PanAgora Asset Allocation Fund's investment objective is to maximize total
return, consisting of capital appreciation and current income. The Fund attempts
to achieve its objective by actively allocating assets among U.S. stocks,
investment grade fixed income securities and cash equivalents based on the
Adviser's proprietary asset allocation disciplines.
The U.S. stock market turned in another stellar year. While most stocks did
well, the bigger stocks had the best performance. The best performer was the Dow
Industrials, followed by the S&P 100, the S&P 400, the S&P 500, the Russell
3000, the Russell 2000, and bringing up the rear, the Value Line Index. The end
result is that most stocks underperformed the stock indices, making stock
selection a difficult exercise.
Stock returns were driven by continued strong earnings growth, coupled with low
inflation, and low interest rates. The year began with the Federal Reserve Board
cutting the Discount Rate, a signal of easy money policy. That set the stage for
a series of new stock market highs. It was also a year of volatility. The stock
market advance has been steady with few corrections.
Bonds were another story. The bond market was characterized by a series of
rallies and busts. Bonds ended the year underperforming cash. Long term bonds
ended the year with a loss making it a dismal year for bonds.
The Fund participated strongly in the stock market rally, but with lower
volatility. Asset allocation varied from a slightly underweighted to slightly
overweighted position in stocks relative to our target of 75% in stocks. Bonds
were often underweighted from their 20% target, reducing the risk from exposure
to the fickle interest rate environment.
1
The coming year depends largely upon inflation fears and Federal Reserve Board
policy. If the economy can continue to produce moderate growth at full capacity
and full employment without inflation, stocks can continue to perform well.
However, if the Fed changes to tight monetary policy, volatility will return.
With the Dow Industrials at 6500, swings of 200 points or more could become
commonplace. Currently the Fund maintains a slight overweighting in equities,
and a minimal amount in bonds. Cash is also overweighted.
PANAGORA INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND
The PanAgora International Equity Fund's investment objective is to maximize
total return, consisting primarily of capital appreciation. The Fund attempts to
achieve its objective by actively allocating assets among non-U.S. stock markets
using the Adviser's proprietary asset allocation disciplines.
The country selection decision within the developed international equity markets
contributed favorably to the Fund's performance. The biggest contributions came
from overweight (i.e. above benchmark weight) positions in Spain and France and
an underweight position in Japan. Falling interest rates due to declining
inflation helped power the Spanish equity market to a top performing return of
40%. After overcoming an erratic start, French equities rose strongly in the
second half of the year ending up 21.2%. Investors were rewarded for the
increasing likelihood of EMU (European Monetary Unit) and an improving economic
and corporate profit outlook. The Japanese equity market turned in the worst
performance with a return of -15.5% as investors were concerned with an
uncertain economic recovery, political instability, unresolved banking sector
problems and fiscal retrenchment.
The PanAgora International Equity Fund invests about 10% of its assets in
emerging markets where economic growth is expected to be higher than the
developed countries. The current emerging markets investments for the Fund
includes eleven countries: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Greece, Indonesia, Mexico,
Philippines, Portugal, South Africa, Thailand and Turkey.
Emerging markets, which began strongly in 1996, completed the year with a modest
return of 4% in US$ terms. The best performing region was Eastern Europe which
returned 35%. The region's positive performance is attributed to strong economic
growth and large foreign capital flows into these markets. Latin America was the
second best performing region with a return of approximately 16%. Brazil, Mexico
and Argentina contributed to the region's strong performance. These markets
suffered in the aftermath of the Mexican peso devaluation in December of 1994
and have experienced a sharp turnaround in 1996. The worst performing region was
Asia which had a flat performance for the year. Asian markets were plagued with
ongoing political scandals and heightened concerns about large current account
deficits.

Thank you for your continuing interest in the PanAgora Institutional Funds. We
look forward to serving you.
Sincerely,
Richard A. Crowell
President

THE PANAGORA INSTITUTIONAL FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
The PanAgora Institutional Funds (the "Trust") was organized under the laws
of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on January 27, 1993 as a Massachusetts
business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company.
The Trust consists of two separately managed investment series: PanAgora
Asset Allocation Fund and PanAgora International Equity Fund, (the
"Funds"). The Funds commenced operations on June 1, 1993.
The PanAgora Asset Allocation Fund's investment objective is to maximize
total return, consisting of capital appreciation and current income. The
PanAgora International Equity Fund's investment objective is to maximize
total return, consisting primarily of capital appreciation, with current
income as a secondary objective. In order to achieve its investment
objective, the PanAgora Asset Allocation Fund actively allocates its assets
among U.S. equity securities, investment grade fixed income securities,
cash and cash equivalents and the PanAgora International Equity Fund
actively allocates its assets among international equity markets.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies for the
Funds. The policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles for investment companies and are consistently followed by the
Funds in the preparation of the financial statements.
PORTFOLIO VALUATION
Equity securities and other similar investments traded on a recognized U.S.
or foreign securities exchange or the National Association of Securities
Dealers Automated Quotation System (NASDAQ) are valued at their last sale
price on the principal exchange on which they are traded or NASDAQ (if
NASDAQ is the principal market for such securities). If no sale occurs,
securities are valued at the mean between the closing bid and asked price.
Unlisted equity securities for which market quotations are readily
available are valued at the mean between the most recent bid and asked
price. Debt securities and other fixed-income investments of the Funds will
be valued at prices supplied by independent pricing agents selected by the
Board of Trustees. Short-term obligations maturing in sixty days or less
are valued at amortized cost. Amortized cost valuation involves initially
valuing a security at its cost, and thereafter, assuming a constant
amortization to maturity of any discount or premium, regardless of the
impact of fluctuating interest rates on the market value of the security.
Securities whose market value does not, in the Advisor's opinion, reflect
fair value, are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith
by the Board of Trustees.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
Each Fund may engage in repurchase agreement transactions. Under the terms
of a typical repurchase agreement, the Fund takes possession of an
underlying debt obligation (i.e. collateral) subject to an obligation of
the seller to repurchase, and the Fund to resell, the obligation at an
29
THE PANAGORA INSTITUTIONAL FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
agreed-upon price and time, thereby determining the yield during the Fund's
holding period. This arrangement results in a fixed rate of return that is
not subject to market fluctuations during the Fund's holding period. The
value of the collateral is at least equal at all times to the total amount
of the repurchase obligations, including interest. In the event of
counterparty default, the Fund has the right to use the collateral to
offset losses incurred. There is potential loss to the Fund in the event
the Fund is delayed or prevented from exercising its rights to dispose of
the collateral securities, including the risk of a possible decline in the
value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks
to assert its rights. The Fund's investment adviser, acting under the
supervision of the Board of Directors, reviews the value of the collateral
and the creditworthiness of those banks and dealers with which the Fund
enters into repurchase agreements to evaluate potential risks.
FUTURES CONTRACTS
The Funds will engage in futures transactions only for bona fide hedging
and non-hedging purposes as defined in regulations of the Commodity Futures
Trading Commission. Upon entering into a futures contract, each Fund is
required to deposit with the broker an amount of cash or cash equivalents
equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount. This is known as the
"initial margin." Subsequent payments ("variation margin") are made or
received by the Funds each day, depending on the daily fluctuation of the
value of the contract.
Futures contracts are marked-to-market daily and the daily changes in the
value of the contract are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. The Funds
recognize a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed.
There are several risks in connection with the use of futures contracts as
a hedging device. The change in value of futures contracts primarily
corresponds with the value of their underlying instrument or index, which
may not correlate with the change in value of the hedged investments. In
addition, there is the risk that the Fund may not be able to enter into a
closing transaction because of an illiquid secondary market.
FOREIGN CURRENCY
The books and records of the Funds are maintained in United States (U.S.)
dollars. Foreign currencies, investments and other assets and liabilities
are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates prevailing at the
end of the period, and purchases and sales of investment securities, income
and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions.
The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of changes in foreign
currency exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the
market prices of securities held at period end. Net realized foreign
currency gains and losses result from changes in exchange rates, including
foreign currency gains and losses between trade date and settlement date on
investment securities transactions, foreign currency transactions and the
difference between the amounts of interest and dividends recorded on the
books of the Funds and the amount actually received. The portion of foreign
currency gains and losses related to fluctuation in exchange rates between
the initial trade date and subsequent sale trade date is included in
realized gains and losses on securities transactions.
30
THE PANAGORA INSTITUTIONAL FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS
The PanAgora International Equity Fund may enter into forward foreign
currency contracts. Forward foreign currency contracts are valued at the
forward rate and are marked-to-market daily. The change in market value is
recorded by the Fund as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contract is
closed or delivery is taken, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal
to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was
opened and the value at the time it was closed.
The use of forward foreign currency contracts does not eliminate
fluctuations in the underlying prices of the Fund's securities, but it does
establish a rate of exchange that can be achieved in the future. Although
forward foreign currency contracts can limit the risk of loss due to a
decline in the value of the hedged currency, they also limit any potential
gain that might result should the value of the currency increase. In
addition, the Fund could be exposed to risks if the counterparties to the
contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts.
SECURITY LENDING
The Funds may lend their securities to brokers, dealers and other financial
organizations. The loans are collateralized at all times with cash, cash
equivalents or U.S. Government securities with a market value at least
equal to the market value of the securities on loan. As with other
extensions of credit, the Funds may bear the risk of delay in recovery or
even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the securities
fail financially. The Funds receive compensation for lending their
securities. At November 30, 1996, the PanAgora Asset Allocation Fund and
the PanAgora International Equity Fund loaned securities having a market
value of $268,150 and $137,777, respectively, collateralized by cash in the
amount of $272,100 and $146,103, respectively, which was invested in
short-term investments.
SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME
Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Realized gains
or losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis.
Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and consists of interest
accrued and, if applicable, discount earned less premiums amortized.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except that certain
dividends from foreign securities are recorded as soon as the Fund is
informed of the ex-dividend date.
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS
Each Fund declares and pays dividends from net investment income, if any,
and distributes net short-term capital gains, if any, on an annual basis.
Each Fund also distributes, at least annually, substantially all of the
long-term capital gains in excess of available capital losses, if any,
which it realizes for each taxable year. Income distributions 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 of income and gains
on various investment securities held by each Fund, timing differences and
differing characterization of distributions made by each Fund. Permanent
differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in
reclassifications to paid-in capital.
31
THE PANAGORA INSTITUTIONAL FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
It is the policy of the Funds to qualify as a regulated investment company,
by complying with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment
companies and by distributing substantially all of its earnings to its
shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income or excise tax is
necessary.
2. MANAGEMENT FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Trust has entered into an investment advisory agreement (the "Advisory
Agreement") with PanAgora Asset Management, Inc. ("PanAgora"). Under the
Advisory Agreement, the Trust, on behalf of each Fund, pays a monthly fee
at an annual rate of the value of each Fund's average daily net assets as
follows:
PanAgora Asset Allocation Fund 0.60%
PanAgora International Equity Fund 0.80%
PanAgora has agreed to voluntarily waive and reimburse a portion or all of
its respective fees and expenses of the Asset Allocation Fund and
International Equity Fund to the extent that the Funds' total annual
expenses exceed 0.90% or 1.10% of their average daily net assets,
respectively.
The Trust has entered into Administration, Custodian and Transfer Agency
and Service Agreements with Investors Bank & Trust Company ("Investors
Bank").
PanAgora has agreed to pay to Funds Distributor, Inc., the Trust's
distributor, as compensation for certain distribution services rendered to
the Trust, a monthly fee at the annual rate of 0.03% of the value of the
average daily net assets of each Fund. The minimum fee, with respect to
both funds, is $15,000 per year. The Funds do not pay any fees to Funds
Distributor, Inc.
No officer, director or employee of PanAgora, Investors Bank or any parent
or subsidiary of those entities receives any compensation from the Trust
for serving as a Trustee or officer of the Trust. The Trust pays each
Trustee who is not an officer, director, or employee of PanAgora and their
affiliates or of Investors Bank, $5,000 per annum plus $1,000 per meeting
attended and reimburses each such Trustee for travel and out-of-pocket
expenses.

5. ORGANIZATION COSTS
Each Fund has borne all costs in connection with its organization. Such
costs are being amortized on the straight-line method over a period of five
years from the commencement of operations for each Fund. In the event that
any of the initial shares of the Funds are redeemed during such
amortization
34
THE PANAGORA INSTITUTIONAL FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
period, the Funds will be reimbursed for any unamortized costs in the same
proportion as the number of shares redeemed bears to the number of initial
shares held at the time of redemption.
6. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Funds may purchase financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in
the normal course of its investment activities. The PanAgora Asset
Allocation Fund may invest in futures contracts and the PanAgora
International Equity Fund may invest in forward currency contracts and
futures contracts. The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments
represent the investment the Funds have in particular classes of financial
instruments and do not represent the amounts potentially subject to risk.
The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is
meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are
considered. A summary of obligations under these financial instruments is
included with each Fund's Portfolio of Investments.
7. CONCENTRATION
At November 30, 1996, a substantial portion of the PanAgora International
Equity Fund's net assets consist of securities denominated in foreign
currencies. Changes in currency exchange rates will affect the value of and
investment income from such securities. Foreign securities are subject to
greater price volatility, more limited capitalization and liquidity, and
higher rates of inflation than securities of companies based in the United
States.
8. BENEFICIAL INTEREST
At November 30, 1996, PanAgora Asset Management, Inc. was record owner of
12.81% of the outstanding shares of the PanAgora Asset Allocation Fund.
Certain other unaffiliated companies were record owners of more than 10% of
the outstanding shares of the Funds.
