INVESTMENT ADVISOR'S REPORT
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On a total return basis, the Old Westbury Core Equities Fund (the "Fund") was
up 0.23%* for the six months ended October 31, 1999, compared to a 2.8% increase
in the Standard & Poor's (S&P) 500 Index.** For the fiscal year ended October
31, 1999, the Core Equities Fund total return was 29.89%* compared to a 25.66%
return for the S&P 500 Index.**
While in aggregate, the stock market showed little change for the April-
October period, there was a 13% correction from the July high to the mid-
October low. During the summer, market leadership shifted dramatically toward
the technology sector which was the only S&P industry group to have a positive
rate-of-return in the third calendar quarter.
Starting in early July, we began to add substantially to our technology
holdings bringing our overall position to 37% of the portfolio. While we never
felt this industry would see much of a slowdown in the second half as
corporations locked down their operations ahead of the year 2000, there were
many who did not agree with us. This attitude has shifted in the last couple of
months and now there is a general agreement that demand will be solid for the
remainder of the year. The current bear story is that information technology
spending will fall sharply next year as the bulge in corporate spending
engendered by the necessity to fix the date problem in computer hardware and
software goes away. We do not agree. From our discussions with a wide variety of
corporations, we find a significant amount of projects have been deferred over
the last 18 months while the remediation efforts went forward. Next year we
anticipate companies "getting back to business" and feel technology expenditures
will remain strong.

We remain firm believers in the Internet and the way it will transform
business as both a revenue generating and cost-cutting strategy. The technology
stocks in our Core Equities Fund are closely tied to the building and
development of the Internet. However, in the long run other corporations that
understand the economic revolution that is taking place and adjust their
business models to take advantage of the Internet will be recognized as stocks
of the "New Economy". To some degree this can already be seen in the market
place as some companies that understand and embrace the future, General Electric
for example, are rewarded much higher valuations than their peers who continue
to pursue a business-as-usual strategy.
While we trimmed our retail positions in the early part of the second quarter,
we have stayed overweighted in the retail sector. We are looking forward to a
strong Christmas season. As we see it, everyone is working, real wages are
rising, inflation is low, and optimism is high. That would seem to be a good
combination of factors pointing toward continued consumer spending.
Back in May, we shifted about 15% of the portfolio into more cyclical types of
stocks. Since then, the global recovery has lost some steam, but more
importantly, the Federal Reserve Board (the "Fed") and the central bankers of
Europe have begun to take an active role in slowing their economies. As a
result, our expectations for a developing worldwide recovery have been tempered,
and we have been reducing our holdings.

OLD WESTBURY GROWTH OPPORTUNITY FUND
INVESTMENT ADVISOR'S REPORT
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The six months from May 1 to October 31, 1999 was a difficult period for the
Old Westbury Growth Opportunity Fund (the "Growth Opportunity Fund"). The
spectacular rally in April in economically-sensitive issues across the entire
market capitalization spectrum began to unwind only one month later and was
completely reversed during the market correction from July to mid-October.
During the summer and especially this autumn, the disparities in the U.S. equity
market became increasingly pronounced. A shrinking number of stocks, largely
technology and related issues deemed to be winners or beneficiaries of the "New
Economy", enjoyed an accelerating uptrend. The balance of the market, in fact
the large majority of issues, fell victim to three rate hikes by the Fed, which
counter-balanced a generally favorable trend in corporate profits. All segments
of the market, with the notable exception of the NASDAQ, which is dominated by
large technology companies, experienced a serious setback, but the small and
mid-cap indices continued to lag the larger cap averages.* With less than a
fully weighted position in the technology sector, the Growth Opportunity Fund
performed poorly during this period on an absolute basis (5.6%)** but managed to
outperform its benchmark, the Russell 2500 Index (7.9%)+.
To address this unsatisfactory situation, a plan to restructure the portfolio
was set in motion shortly before the conclusion of the fiscal year. The primary
objectives of the initiative are (1) to substantially increase the technology
component of the Growth Opportunity Fund and (2) to place a greater emphasis on
high-growth as opposed to value equities throughout the portfolio. We are well
into the transition and have begun to see some positive results. Our belief is
that the performance of the Growth Opportunty Fund should improve by the end of
the first half of the current fiscal year (April 30, 2000).

cap averages.

Performance
International markets continued to perform strongly in the second half of the
fiscal year*. During the second half of the reporting period, Old Westbury
International Fund (the "International Fund") rose 7.27%** compared to the rise
in the Morgan Stanley Capital International: Europe, Australia and Far East
("MSCI EAFE") index of 6.7%+. In the year as a whole, the International Fund
rose 28.82%** compared to the rise in the MSCI EAFE index of 23.03%+. The
International Fund benefited during the second half of the reporting period from
the heavy position in the Japanese market and successful stock selection in
Japan and Europe.
Portfolio Composition
The International Fund continued to increase its holdings in Japan in the
early part of the reporting period under review and shifted the exposure away
from Yen sensitive technology companies towards beneficiaries of domestic
recovery. The International Fund continues to hold substantial positions in the
telecommunications and service sectors in Japan, where we see excellent growth
prospects.
Following a strong rise in the Japanese market and the Yen in the reporting
period, the International Fund has recently shifted some money out of Japan and
into Continental Europe, but retains a strong weighting in Japan. The economic
outlook is brightening in the Eurozone, and both the Euro and the markets should
benefit. We favor financials and growth stocks in Europe. These have been badly
hit by the recent rise in bond yields and should benefit from a flattening of
the yield curve and continuing corporate

activity. We remain underweight in the United Kingdom ("UK"), where a sharp
recovery is likely to feed much more quickly into wages and asset prices.
Interest rates are likely to rise faster and further in the UK than on the
European Continent.
Conclusion
The outlook remains very positive for the major non-US markets. Strong returns
from Japan over the past year were driven by solid confirmation of the three
trends that have been underpinning our optimistic view of the market. We expect
similar trends to begin to provide support for Continental European markets. In
both Japan and Europe recent data provided evidence that these economies are in
the early stages of a cyclical recovery. We expect economic growth in both areas
to gather pace over the next year. Corporate restructuring in both Japan and
Continental Europe is also accelerating and is likely to transform corporate
profitability as well as dampen inflationary pressure. Domestic liquidity flows
look increasingly favorable in both areas. Individuals are beginning to increase
exposure to the equity markets, while governments are acting to increase pension
provision. These trends should continue to generate relatively attractive
returns from these markets.

OLD WESTBURY INTERNATIONAL FUND
INVESTMENT OUTLOOK
(Continued)
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JAPAN
The Japanese economy is enjoying a cyclical recovery. The key statistic in the
reporting period under review was the rise in second quarter Gross Domestic
Product ("GDP"), but all the numbers are showing consistent improvement. Second
quarter growth was driven by private consumption and not government spending.
This is important, because, with government deficits ballooning, a recovery in
consumption is vital to sustainable growth in Japan. Restructuring is gathering
pace--the merger of three leading banks announced in August being the most
notable example. The initial driver of this was necessity. Banks have been loath
to provide finance so companies have had to change to survive. Now two other
factors are likely to keep the pressure on. First, the renewed strength of the
Yen, and a dramatic increase in the number of foreign firms entering the market,
should prevent any complacency even as the economy starts to recover. Second,
the government is introducing measures improving disclosure as well as giving
companies more flexibility to restructure their operations.
None of this means that Japan's structural problems have disappeared. It will
be a protracted struggle to improve public finances, to allocate capital more
efficiently and to raise the trend growth rate. But none of these factors rule
out a cyclical upturn and it is much easier to deal with these deep- rooted
problems when the economy is picking up. After such a deep recession the main
risk, we believe, is that investors continue to underestimate the potential for
a robust recovery in the economy and corporate earnings in Japan. Yen strength
may cause concern. But we do not expect a gradual strengthening of the Yen to
derail the economic recovery. Exports account for only 15% of GDP, little more
than in the US. A recovery in domestic demand is much more significant for
output than any Yen--induced loss of export competitiveness. And Yen strength
will ensure a continuation of the ultra loose monetary policy, which should help
to support domestic demand and asset prices. Also, while there may be a hiatus
in government spending before the next supplementary budget feeds through at the
end of the year, we expect the government to continue to provide support. We
continue to be optimistic about the prospects for this market.
PACIFIC EX- JAPAN
We continue to see better prospects in Japan than in the rest of the Pacific
Rim. But one area that we are getting interested in again is
OLD WESTBURY INTERNATIONAL FUND
INVESTMENT OUTLOOK
(Continued)
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hong Kong. It has had a challenging time adjusting to a collapse in domestic
demand at a time when its exchange rate and interest rates were linked to the
only booming economy in the world--the USA. But what that has done is
transformed inflation expectations and diluted the obsession with property that
was one of Hong Kong's weaknesses. With the Chinese economy also stabilizing and
entry to the World Trade Organization likely to promote further restructuring in
China, Hong Kong is an area we are looking to add to.
EUROPE
In Europe we see evidence of modest but rising growth with subdued inflation,
while restructuring and mergers are transforming the Continent's corporations.
This should be a supportive environment for equity markets.
Growth in Continental Europe was surprisingly weak in the first half of 1999.
The crisis in emerging markets at the end of 1998 proved to be more of a drag on
European exports than expected. This in turn fed through into weaker
intra--European trade causing manufacturing output and confidence to slump and
taking around 1% off the rate of growth in Europe. The result was very subdued
growth, with particularly poor performance in Germany and Italy. More recent
data suggests a reversal of these trends. Order books started to turn in March
and this is now starting to feed through into industrial production. The
recovery in demand is being driven by a sharp increase in export orders assisted
by the weaker Euro. We expect growth to continue to accelerate in the fourth
quarter of 1999 and expect Continental Europe to grow over three percent in 2000
after two percent in 1999.
Many economists and politicians are beginning to hope for more than a cyclical
upswing. What Europe needs is a dose of US style high growth with low inflation
and high productivity to bring down unemployment rates. A number of factors make
this more likely this time. The years of tight monetary and fiscal policy ahead
of January's launch of the Euro have helped to reduce inflationary expectations.
There is spare capacity in Europe and the combination of privatization and
deregulation is driving prices down in large sections of the
economy--telecommunications and electricity prices, for example, are likely to
fall over 15% in the next few years. The single market and unified currency have
been driving companies to cut costs and achieve economies of scale and the total
value of merger

and acquisition transactions this year will exceed $1trillion. This process is
being assisted by the enlarged Euro capital market, which is enabling European
companies to raise funds as cheaply and innovatively as their US rivals. It has
already led to an upturn in labor productivity, which is running well above the
levels of the late 1980's in most of the Continent.
Continental European governments are still acting too slowly to free up rigid
labor markets and though all of them are promising to cut taxes, implementation
is likely to take a few years. But the competitive environment is now clear and
governments are aware that they have to offer concessions in order to attract
vital foreign investment as well as keep local companies from switching their
investment focus. Electorates may become more realistic too. Most notable is
Germany--where Mr Schroder's loss of support is reflected in voters shifting to
the right not to the interventionist leftwing and Green parties.
It has been the weakness of the Euro that has dampened returns to US investors
from Continental European markets. In local currency terms, Continental Europe
has outperformed the US in 1999. Political concerns and Continental Europe's
structural rigidities were widely blamed for the weakness of the Euro in the
first half of the year despite the fact that it was in effect just reversing a
six month period of strength in European currencies the previous year. We
believe that the Euro was undermined by an exaggerated cyclical downturn in the
pace of European activity in the first half of 1999, a period when growth was
accelerating in the US. Confirmation that growth in the Continent is now
bouncing back should support the Euro for the rest of the year and into 2000.
Evidence of structural improvements would be an added bonus. We remain
underweight in the UK where economic recovery is likely to be associated with a
faster rise in inflation and where there is less scope for restructuring.

The total return for the Old Westbury Fixed Income Fund (the "Fixed Income
Fund") for the 12 month reporting period ended October 31, 1999 was (2.74%)*
versus (0.66%)** for the Lehman Brothers Government/ Corporate Bond Total Index.
Since its inception on March 12, 1998, through October 31, 1999, the Fixed
Income Fund's return was 3.80%* versus 3.60% for the Lehman Brothers

Looking forward, we believe the Fed's actions to counter the potential for
rising inflation will create a favorable investment environment for bond
investors.

reflects the ending value of the $10,000 hypothetical investment in the Fund, as
compared to the LBMBI. The ending values were $10,266 and $10,285, respectively.

The chart above illustrates the total value of a $10,000 investment from
inception with dividends and capital gains reinvested. The Lehman Brothers
Municipal Bond Index also includes the reinvestment of dividends but does not
include fees and expenses associated with an investment in the Portfolio. This
index is unmanaged.
*Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and
principal value will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed,
may be worth more or less than their original cost.

OLD WESTBURY FUNDS, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
October 31, 1999
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies. Old Westbury Funds, Inc.
(the "Fund"), a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940 (the "Act") as a diversified, open-end management investment company.
The Fund's Articles of Incorporation permit the Board of Directors ("Directors")
to create an unlimited number of series, each of which is a separate class of
shares. At October 31, 1999, the Fund consisted of five separate investment
portfolios (each portfolio individually referred to as a "Portfolio") which are
presented herein:
Portfolio Name Investment Objective
Old Westbury Core Equities Fund Long-term capital appreciation.
("Core Equities Fund")
Old Westbury Growth Opportunity Fund Capital appreciation.
("Growth Opportunity Fund")
Old Westbury International Fund Long-term growth of capital.
("International Fund")
Old Westbury Fixed Income Fund Total return.
("Fixed Income Fund")
Old Westbury Municipal Bond Fund High level of current income
("Municipal Bond Fund") exempt from federal regular
income tax.
The Fund was incorporated under the laws of the state of Maryland on August
26, 1993 and commenced operations on October 22, 1993.
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by
the Fund:
A. Cash and Equivalents. Cash and equivalents for the Growth Opportunity Fund,
Core Equities Fund and Fixed Income Fund consist primarily of an investment in
the SEI Government II Money Market Fund. For the International Fund cash and
equivalents consist in part of an investment in the SEI Government II Money
Market Fund. Cash and equivalents for the Municipal Bond Fund consist primarily
of an investment in the SEI Tax Free Money Market Fund. While a money market
fund seeks to maintain a stable net asset value of $1/share, there is no
assurance that it will do so.
B. Valuation of Investments. Securities listed on an exchange are valued,
except as indicated below, at the last sale price reflected at the close of the
regular trading session of the exchange on the business day as of which such
value is being determined. If there has been no sale on such
OLD WESTBURY FUNDS, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
October 31, 1999 (Continued)
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
day, the securities are valued at the mean of the closing bid and asked prices.
If no bid or asked prices are quoted, then the security is valued at a fair
value determined in accordance with procedures approved by the Board of
Directors. Portfolio securities traded on more than one national securities
exchange are valued at the last sale price on the exchange representing the
principal market for such securities.
Securities traded in the over-the-counter market, including listed securities
whose primary market is believed by Bessemer Trust Company, N.A. ("Bessemer"),
the Fund's investment advisor (the "Advisor"), to be over-the-counter, are
valued at the mean of the last reported bid and asked prices from such sources
as the Board of Directors deems appropriate to reflect their fair value.
Debt instruments having 60 days or less remaining until maturity are valued at
amortized cost. Debt instruments having a greater remaining maturity will be
valued at the bid price obtained from a dealer maintaining an active market in
that security or on the basis of prices obtained from a pricing service approved
as reliable by the Board of Directors. All other investment assets, including
restricted and not readily marketable securities, are valued under procedures
established by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Board
of Directors designed to reflect in good faith the fair value of such
securities.
C. Foreign Currency Translation. The books and records of the International
Fund are maintained in United States dollars. Foreign currency amounts are
translated into United States dollars on the following basis:
(i) value on investment securities, other assets and liabilities--at the
current rates of exchange.
(ii) purchases and sales of investment securities, income, and expenses--at
the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.
Although the net assets of the Portfolio are presented at the foreign exchange
rates and values at the close of the period, the Portfolio does not isolate that
portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the
foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the value
of the securities held at the end of the period. Similarly, the Portfolio does
not isolate the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from the
fluctuations arising from changes in the value of portfolio securities sold
during the period.
OLD WESTBURY FUNDS, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
October 31, 1999 (Continued)
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations
and risks not typically associated with those of U.S. companies as a result of,
among other factors, the level of governmental supervision and regulation of
foreign securities markets and the possibility of political and economic
instability.
D. Forward Foreign Currency Contracts. The International Fund may enter into
forward foreign currency contracts in order to hedge its exposure to changes in
foreign currency exchange rates on its foreign portfolio holdings. A forward
foreign currency contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency
at a future date at a negotiated forward rate. Risks may arise upon entering
into these contracts from the potential inability of the counterparties to meet
the terms of their contracts. There were no forward foreign currency contracts
open at October 31, 1999.
E. Security Transactions and Related Investment Income. Security transactions
are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on security
transactions are determined on the identified cost method. Dividend income and
other distributions from portfolio securities are recorded on the ex-dividend
date except that, if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from
foreign securities are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the
ex-dividend date. Dividend income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld
where recovery of such taxes is not assured. Interest income, including
amortization of premiums and discounts, is accrued daily.
F. Deferred Organization Expenses. Expenses incurred by each Portfolio in
connection with its organization and the initial public offering of the
Portfolio's shares are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a five-year
period.
G. Federal Taxes. It is the policy of the Fund to comply with the requirements
of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") applicable to regulated investment
companies and to distribute all of its taxable income to its shareholders.
Accordingly, no federal income or excise tax provision is required.
OLD WESTBURY FUNDS, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
October 31, 1999 (Continued)
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At October 31, 1999, each Portfolio had the following capital loss
carryforwards for federal income tax purposes, which will expire in the
following years:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Portfolio Name 2005 2006 2007 Total
- ---------------------------------------- ------- ---------- --------- ----------
<S> <C> <C> <C> <C>
Core Equities Fund...................... 1,758,944 1,758,944
Growth Opportunity Fund................. 366,810 12,180,857 9,522,117 22,069,784
International Fund...................... 891,732 891,732
Fixed Income Fund....................... 116,960 116,960
Municipal Bond Fund..................... 215,548 215,548
</TABLE>
The capital loss carryforward will reduce each Portfolio's taxable income
arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to extent
permitted by the Code, and thus, will reduce the amount of distributions to
shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve each Portfolio of any
liability for federal tax.
H. Distributions to Shareholders. The treatment for financial statement
purposes of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net
realized gains may differ from their ultimate treatment for federal income tax
purposes. These differences are caused primarily by: differences in the timing
of the recognition of certain components of income, expense, and capital gain;
and the recharacterization of foreign exchange gains or losses to either
ordinary income or realized capital gain for federal tax purposes. Where such
differences are permanent in nature, they are reclassified in the components of
net assets based on their characterization for federal income tax purposes. Any
such reclassifications will have no effect on net assets, results of operations
or net asset value per share of the Portfolio.
I. Restricted Securities. Restricted securities are securities that may only
be resold upon registration under federal securities laws or in transactions
exempt from such registration. In some cases, the issuer of restricted
securities has agreed to register such securities for resale, at the issuer's
expense either upon demand by the Fund or in connection with another registered
offering of the securities. Many restricted securities may be resold in the
secondary market in transactions exempt from registration. Such restricted
securities may be determined to be liquid under criteria established by the
Board of Directors. The Fund will not incur any registration costs upon such
resales. The Fund's restricted securities are valued at the price provided by
dealers in the secondary market or, if no

market prices are available, at the fair value as determined in accordance with
procedures approved by the Board of Directors.
Additional information on the restricted security held in Growth Opportunity
Fund at October 31, 1999 is as follows:
Security Acquisition Date Acquisition Cost
-------- ---------------- ------------------
Candescent Technology 4/17/1998 $2,677,000
J. Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts in the financial
statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
2. Transactions with Affiliates.
A. Investment Advisory Fees. Pursuant to an advisory contract, the Fund has
retained Bessemer to make investment decisions. The investment advisory fee paid
to the advisor is computed daily and paid monthly in accordance with the
following schedule:
Core Equities Fund--0.70% of the first $100 million of the Portfolio's average
net assets, 0.65% of the second $100 million of such assets and 0.60% of such
assets exceeding $200 million.
Growth Opportunity Fund and International Fund--0.80% of the first $100
million of the Portfolio's average net assets, 0.75% of the second $100
million of such assets and 0.70% of such assets exceeding $200 million.
Fixed Income Fund and Municipal Bond Fund--0.45% of the first $100 million of
the Portfolio's average net assets, 0.40% of the second $100 million of such
assets and 0.35% of such assets exceeding $200 million.
B. Administration Fees. Federated Administrative Services ("FAS") serves as
administrator. Edgewood Services, Inc. serves as distributor and shareholder
servicing agent. FAS provides administrative services necessary for the overall
administration of the Fund including, among other responsibilities, the
negotiation of contracts and fees with, and the monitoring of performance and
billings of, the independent contractors and agents of the Fund, the preparation
and filing of all documents required for compliance by the Fund with applicable
laws and regulations; providing equipment and personnel necessary for
maintaining the organization of the Fund; preparation of certain documents in
connection with meetings of the Board of Directors

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
and shareholders; the maintenance of books and records of the Fund; and paying
the compensation of the Fund officers and Directors affiliated with FAS. For
providing these services, FAS received from the Fund a fee accrued daily and
paid monthly at an annual rate equal to 0.15% of the total average daily net
assets of the Portfolios within the Fund up to $250 million; 0.125% on the next
$250 million of such assets; 0.10% on the next $250 million of such assets; and
0.075% of such assets over $750 million. The administrative fee received during
any fiscal year shall be at least $75,000 per Portfolio. FAS may choose to
voluntarily waive a portion of its fee at any time.
C. Distribution and Service Plan and Distribution Reimbursement Fees. The
Directors adopted a distribution and service plan (the "Plan") for the Fund
pursuant to Rule 12b-1 of the Act, and pursuant to the Plan, the Fund entered
into a distribution agreement and a shareholder servicing agreement with
Edgewood Services, Inc. and a shareholder servicing agreement with Bessemer.
Under its shareholder servicing agreement, Bessemer received payments from the
Fund to permit it to make payments to broker-dealers for providing shareholder
services. Under its shareholder servicing agreement, Edgewood Services, Inc.
receives payments for the Fund to permit it to make payments to broker-dealers
for providing shareholder services. Under its shareholder servicing agreement,
Bessemer is permitted (i) to receive a payment from the Fund attributable to
Bessemer's clients (and its affiliates) for providing shareholder services to
such clients and (ii) to receive payments to permit it to make payments to other
financial institutions as shareholder servicing agents. The total of shareholder
servicing fees in the aggregate payable to Edgewood Services, Inc. and Bessemer
will not exceed 0.25% per annum of the Fund's average daily net assets.
The distribution agreement with Edgewood Services, Inc. provides for
reimbursement to Edgewood Services, Inc. by the Fund for its distribution,
promotional and advertising costs incurred in connection with the distribution
of the Fund shares in an amount not to exceed 0.10% per annum of the Fund's
average daily net assets.
In addition, the Fund will pay for certain other expenses under the Plan.
These expenses shall not exceed an amount equal to 0.05% per annum of the Fund's
average daily net assets.
D. Directors' Fees. Each Director who is not an "interested person" (as
defined in the Act) of the Fund receives a $5,000 annual retainer plus
OLD WESTBURY FUNDS, INC.

who is not an "interested person" (as defined by the Act) of the Fund receives a
$12,000 annual retainer plus $2,000 per meeting and is reimbursed for
out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with committee or board meetings.
E. Custody Fees. The Fund has retained Bessemer to serve as the Fund's
custodian. Bessemer is responsible for maintaining the books and records of the
Fund's securities and cash. For providing these services, Bessemer receives from
each Portfolio a fee accrued and paid monthly at an annual rate equal to 0.15%
(0.20% for the International Fund) of the average daily net assets of the
Portfolio.
3. Capital Stock. The Fund has authorized a total of 20 billion shares of common
stock (par value $0.001 per share) and is permitted to issue 4 billion of the
authorized shares in each of the Portfolios. Transactions in shares of capital

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial

not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial positions of the respective
Funds constituting the Old Westbury Funds, Inc. as of October 31, 1999, the
results of their operations, the changes in their net assets, and the financial
