August 18, 1995
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to present the Semi-Annual Report for the AMT
Capital Fund, reflecting its operations for the first six months of 1995.
The Portfolios in the Fund, along with other mutual funds distributed by
AMT Capital Services, offer investors an opportunity to gain access to
some of the nation's top investment advisers at lower, institutional fee
levels. As of today, net assets in the AMT Capital Fund were $71.7
million, more than double the level at year-end.
The Money Market Portfolio continues to outperform its
benchmark, as it has consistently done in every month since January 1994.
Favorable duration management and yield curve positioning account for
the Portfolio's performance and its return compares favorably with that of
similar funds.
The HLM International Equity Portfolio, whose company-focused
"bottom-up" approach can produce short-term performance volatility
relative to the benchmark, underperformed in the first quarter as markets
were subdued outside the U.S. and as markets discounted strong earnings
reports. In the second quarter, market valuations reflected continuing
strong earnings and the Portfolio substantially outperformed its
benchmark. Net performance for the year-to-date and the trailing 12-
month period is above its benchmark. The NAV for the HLM
International Equity Portfolio is now published daily in the New York
Times, the Wall Street Journal and other daily periodicals (NASDAQ
symbol - AMTHX).
We are actively exploring opportunities to add additional
Portfolios and to grow existing ones. We greatly appreciate your interest
and participation in the AMT Capital Fund. We welcome the opportunity
to discuss the investment approach, performance and merits of this or any
other fund distributed by AMT Capital Services. Please note that we have
enclosed a copy of Eleanor Hoagland's Investment Outlook. Do not
hesitate to contact us with questions or comments regarding these reports,
or if we can be of assistance in any manner.
Sincerely,
by: \s\ Alan M. Trager

HLM International Equity Portfolio
Graph: Comparison of change in value of $10,000 investment in HLM
International Equity Portfolio and the MSCI World Ex U.S.A. Index (Net)
where the Y-axis ranges from $9,000 to $10,434 and the X-axis ranges
from $9,000 to $11,500.
The HLM International Equity Portfolio rose by 6.44% during the first
six months of the year, outperforming its benchmark, the MSCI World-ex USA
Index, which rose 2.91%. Net assets rose to $37.8 million. The Portfolio's
objectives are to seek long-term capital appreciation through investments in
companies based outside the United States.
Developments in the First Quarter
The Portfolio fell in value during the first quarter, underperforming its
benchmark. Returns in local markets were mainly flat to negative, especially in
Japan and Germany. While the companies in which the Portfolio was invested
generally continued to report very strong earnings, market valuations were
considerably less robust. Some of the smaller markets in which the Portfolio
invests were hard hit by the Mexican crisis. A relatively high cash position
at the start of the quarter and limited exposure to the Japanese markets were
positive factors but were not sufficient to overcome low valuations across
markets. New purchases included Development Bank of Singapore,
Muenchener Rueckversicherungs-Gesellschaft, Rentokil Group, Wolters
Kluwer N.V., and Hong Kong and China Gas. Pan American Beverages and
Jardine Strategic Holdings were sold.
Developments in the Second Quarter
In contrast to the first quarter, the Portfolio significantly outperformed
the benchmark in the second quarter. Markets recovered from the weakness of
the first few months of the year, while more stable currency rates provided a
positive underpinning for longer-term markets. The Portfolio at June 30 held
some 44 companies in 18 countries. New purchases included Canon,
PartnerRe, IHC Caland N.V., Imperial Oil and Astra AB while positions in
Makita Corp. and Hong Kong and China Gas were sold.

Money Market Portfolio
Graph: Comparison of change in value of $10,000 investment in Money Market
Portfolio and the IBC/Donoghue's Money Market Fund Average where the
Y-axis ranges from $10,000 to $10,759 and the X-axis ranges from 11/1/93 to
6/30/95.
The Money Market Portfolio provided a total return of 2.87%
outperforming its benchmark, the Donoghue's Money Market Fund Average,
by 14 basis points. The Portfolio invests in high-quality short-term money
market instruments. Its objective is to seek current income, liquidity and the
maintenance of a stable net asset value. Net assets were $23.0 million as of
June 30, 1995.
Developments in the First Quarter
The Portfolio outperformed its benchmark due to favorable yield curve
and duration exposures. Interest rates declined despite a well-anticipated
tightening by the Fed. The short-term yield curve flattened. The significant
decline in the dollar against the mark and yen had a more limited effect than
might have been expected, as domestic data turned decidedly weaker as the
quarter progressed.
Developments in the Second Quarter
Rates continued to decline abruptly through the second quarter.
Interest rate volatility soared and the yield curve continued to flatten. The
Portfolio was well positioned to benefit from these changes, although non-
Treasury holdings detracted a bit from performance as spreads widened.

June 30, 1995 (Unaudited)
1. Organization
AMT Capital Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") was organized as a Maryland corporation on
August 3, 1993 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, as an open-end management investment company. The Money Market
Portfolio commenced operations on November 1, 1993 and the HLM International
Equity Portfolio commenced operations on May 11, 1994. The Fund currently has
two active Portfolios. The costs incurred by the Fund in connection with the
organization and initial registration are being amortized in the Money Market
Portfolio on a straight-line basis over a sixty-month period. The unamortized
balance of organizational expenses at June 30, 1995 was $58,926.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Securities
All securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Interest
income and expense are recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income is
recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Fund amortizes discount or premium
on a daily basis to interest income. The Fund uses the specific identification
method for determining gain or loss on sales of securities.
Income Tax
There is no provision for Federal income or excise tax since each Portfolio has
elected or will elect to be taxed as a regulated investment company ("RIC") and
therefore complies with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue
Code applicable to RICs and has distributed all of its taxable income.
Valuation
All investments in the HLM International Equity Portfolio are valued daily at
their market price, which results in unrealized gains or losses. Securities
traded on an exchange are valued at their last sales price on that exchange.
Securities for which over-the-counter market quotations are available are
valued at the latest bid price. Deposits and repurchase agreements and reverse
repurchase agreements are generally valued at their cost plus accrued interest.
The value of other investments is determined under procedures established by
the Fund's Board of Directors. All investments in the Money Market Portfolio
are valued daily on an amortized cost basis, which approximates fair value and
is consistent with Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940.
Expenses
Expenses directly attributed to each Portfolio in the Fund are charged to that
Portfolio's operations; expenses which are applicable to all Portfolios are
allocated among them based on average daily net assets.
Dividends to Shareholders
It is the policy of the HLM International Equity Portfolio to declare dividends
on all of its net investment income on a quarterly basis. Net investment
income dividends are payable and reinvested quarterly. It is the policy of
the Money Market Portfolio to declare dividends daily on all of its net
investment income. Net investment income dividends are payable and
reinvested monthly. Net short-term and long-term capital gains distributions
for both Portfolios, if any, are normally distributed on an annual basis.
Dividends from net investment income and distributions from realized gains from
investment transactions have been determined in accordance with income tax
regulations and may differ from net investment income and realized gains
recorded by the Fund. These differences are due primarily to differing
treatments for foreign currency-related transactions and losses deferred due
to tax regulations and are recorded as temporary overdistributions of net
realized gain on investments or investment income, net, in the statement of
changes in net assets.
Currency Translation
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies and commitments under
forward exchange currency contracts are translated into U.S. dollars at the
mean of the quoted bid and asked prices of such currencies against the U.S.
dollar.
Purchases and sales of portfolio securities are translated at the rates of
exchange prevailing when such securities were acquired or sold.
Income and expenses are translated at exchange rates prevailing when accrued.
The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting
from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations
arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations
are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.
Net realized gains and losses from foreign currency-related transactions arise
from sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of foreign currency,
currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on
securities transactions, the difference between the amounts of dividends,
interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books, and
the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net
unrealized appreciation on translation of assets and liabilities denominated
in foreign currencies arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities
other than investments in securities at the period end, resulting from changes
in the exchange rate. At June 30, 1995, the balance of net unrealized
(depreciation) related to the changes in the exchange rate in the value of
assets and liabilities other than investments was ($32,494).
3. Investment Advisory Agreement and Affiliated Transactions
The Fund's Board of Directors has approved investment advisory agreements (the
"Agreements") with the Investment Advisers. The investment advisory fees to be
paid the Investment Advisers are computed daily at an annual rate of 0.75% of
average daily net assets of the HLM International Equity Portfolio and 0.25% of
the average daily net assets of the Money Market Portfolio. The fees for both
Portfolios are payable monthly. The Investment Advisers for the HLM
International Equity Portfolio and the Money Market Portfolio, Harding,
Loevner Management, L.P. ("HLM") and AMT Capital Advisers, Inc., respectively,
and the Fund's Administrator, AMT Capital Services, Inc., have voluntarily
agreed to waive the investment advisory fees and the administration fees. In
addition, the Investment Advisers have agreed to reimburse, if necessary, the
Portfolios for any excess expenses over 1.00% and 0.40%, respectively, (on an
annualized basis) of the HLM International Equity Portfolio's and the Money
Market Portfolio's average daily net assets. The Money Market Portfolio's
sub-adviser is paid sub-advisory fees from the Investment Adviser, not the
Portfolio. Directors' fees and expenses of $5,081 were paid for the six months
ended June 30, 1995 to directors who are not employees of the Investment
Advisers.
4. Investment Transactions
Purchase cost and proceeds from sales of investment securities, other than
short-term investments, for the six months ended June 30, 1995 totaled
$28,492,181 and $1,446,316, respectively, for the HLM International Equity
Portfolio.
The components of net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments at
June 30, 1995 for each Portfolio were as follows:
Money HLM International
Market Equity
Portfolio Portfolio
Gross Unrealized Appreciation $ - $ 1,107,888
Gross Unrealized Depreciation -451,473
$ - $ 656,415
The cost of securities owned by the Portfolios at June 30, 1995 for Federal tax
purposes were substantially the same as for financial statement purposes.
The HLM International Equity Portfolio enters into forward foreign exchange
currency contracts in order to hedge its exposure to changes in foreign currency
exchange rates on its foreign portfolio holdings. A forward exchange contract
is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a
negotiated forward rate. The gain or loss arising from the difference between
the cost of the original contracts and the closing of such contracts is
included in net realized gains or losses on foreign currency-related
transactions. Fluctuations in the value of forward foreign currency contracts
are recorded for book purposes as unrealized appreciation or depreciation on
translation of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. Risks
may arise from the potential inability of a counterparty to meet the terms of a
contract and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency
relative to the U.S. dollar.
The Fund enters into foreign currency transactions on the spot markets in order
to pay for foreign investment purchases or to convert to dollars the proceeds
from foreign investment sales or coupon interest receipts.
At June 30, 1995, the HLM International Equity Portfolio had the following
outstanding foreign exchange currency contracts, both to purchase and sell
foreign currencies on the forward and spot markets, as follows:

6. Repurchase and Reverse Repurchase Agreements
Each Portfolio may enter into repurchase agreements under which a bank or
securities firm that is a primary or reporting dealer in U.S. Government
securities agrees, upon entering into a contract, to sell U.S. Government
Securities to a Portfolio and repurchase such securities from the Portfolio
at a mutually agreed upon price and date.
Each Portfolio is also permitted to enter into reverse repurchase agreements
under which a primary or reporting dealer in U.S. Government securities
purchases U.S. Government securities from a Portfolio and the Portfolio agrees
to repurchase the securities at an agreed upon price and date.
Each Portfolio will engage in repurchase and reverse repurchase transactions
with parties selected on the basis of such party's creditworthiness.
Securities purchased subject to repurchase agreements must have an aggregate
market value greater than or equal to the repurchase price plus accrued
interest at all times. If the value of the underlying securities falls below
the value of the repurchase price plus accrued interest, the Portfolio will
require the seller to deposit additional collateral by the next business day.
If the request for additional collateral is not met, or the seller defaults
on its repurchase obligation, the Portfolio maintains the right to sell the
underlying securities at market value and may claim any resulting loss against
the seller. When a Portfolio engages in reverse repurchase transactions, the
Portfolio will maintain, in a segregated account with its custodian, securities
equal in value to those subject to the agreement.
