SUPPLEMENT DATED JUNE 23, 1997
TO PROSPECTUS DATED MARCH 7, 1997 FOR
INSTITUTIONAL SHARES OF THE FOLLOWING FUNDS:
Morgan Grenfell Fixed Income Fund
Morgan Grenfell Municipal Bond Fund
Morgan Grenfell Short-Term Fixed Income Fund
Morgan Grenfell Short-Term Municipal Bond Fund
Morgan Grenfell Smaller Companies Fund
Morgan Grenfell Microcap Fund
Morgan Grenfell Large Cap Growth Fund
Morgan Grenfell Capital Management, Inc. ("MGCM") has agreed, effective as
of July 1, 1997, to change the limit on annual operating expenses for
institutional shares of Morgan Grenfell Microcap Fund from 1.75% to 1.49% of
average daily net assets attributable to such shares. Accordingly, beginning on
July 1, 1997, the following disclosure should be substituted for the operating
expense information that currently appears for the Fund in the expense table on
page 4 of the Prospectus and the example information that currently appears for
the Fund on page 5 of the Prospectus:
Annual Fund Operating Expenses Microcap
(as a percentage of average net assets) Fund*
--------
Advisory Fees ......................................................... 1.50%
Other Expense ......................................................... 0.66%
Reduction of Advisory Fee and
Expense Limitation by Adviser** ....................................... (0.67)%
Net Fund Operating Expenses (after
advisory fee reduction and expense
limitation)** ......................................................... 1.49%
- ----------
* Microcap Fund was not operational during the fiscal year ended October 31,
1996.
** MGCM has agreed to reduce its advisory fee and to make arrangments to
limit certain other expenses to the extent necessary to limit Fund Operating
Expenses for institutional shares of Microcap Fund, on an annual basis, to 1.49%
of the Fund's assets attributable to such shares. The above table and the
following example reflect this voluntary agreement. In its sole discretion, MGCM
may terminate or modify this agreement at any time after October 31, 1997. The
purpose of the agreement is to enhance the Fund's total return during the period
when, because of its smaller size, fixed expenses have a more significant impact
on total return. After giving effect to MGCM's voluntary agreement, the Fund's
advisory fee is 0.83%. If MGCM's voluntary agreement were not in effect, the
Fund Operating Expenses for institutional shares of the Fund would be 2.16%.

Example:
Investors in institutional shares would pay the following expenses on a
$1,000(1) investment assuming (1) a 5% annual return and (2) redemption at the
end of each time period:
1 Year 3 Years

Equity Fund and Japanese Small Cap Equity Fund had not yet commenced operations.
The Funds' prospectuses provide a description of each Fund's investment
objectives, policies and strategies. These financial statements relate only to
the Microcap Fund.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires Trust 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 followed by the Funds.
SECURITY VALUATION--Securities listed on a securities exchange for which
market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sales
price on the principal exchange on which they are traded on the valuation date
or, if there is no such reported sale on the valuation date, at the most recent
quoted bid price. Unlisted securities for which market quotations are readily
availableare valued at the most recent quoted bid price. Certain debt and fixed
income investments owned by the Fundsare valued at prices supplied by
independent pricing agents selected by Morgan Grenfell Capital Management, Inc.
and Morgan Grenfell Investment Services Limited (the "Advisors"), which prices
reflect broker-dealer supplied valuations. Short-term investments are valued at
amortized cost which approximates market value. Other securities for which
market value is not readily available or securities whose market value does not,
in the opinion of the applicable Advisor, reflect fair value are valued at fair
value using methods determined in good faith by the valuation committee of the
Board of Trustees.
INCOME TAXES--It is the intention of each Fund to continue to qualify as a
regulated investment company and to distribute all of its taxable income.
Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes is considered necessary.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
================================================================================
MORGAN GRENFELL INVESTMENT TRUST -- APRIL 30, 1997 (UNAUDITED)
The International Funds may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in
which they invest with respect to their investments in issuers existing or
operating in such countries. Such taxes are generally based on either income
earned or repatriated. The International Funds accrue such taxes when the
related income is earned.
NET ASSET VALUE PER SHARE--The net asset value per share is calculated on a
daily basis by dividing the assets of each Fund, less its liabilities, by the
number of outstanding shares of the Fund.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS--Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase
agreements are held by the custodian banks until maturity of the repurchase
agreements. Provisions of the repurchase agreements and procedures adopted by
the Trust require that the market value of the collateral, including accrued
interest thereon, is sufficient in the event of default by the counterparty.
The Funds may also invest in tri-party repurchase agreements. Securities
held as collateral for tri-party repurchase agreements are maintained in a
segregated account by the broker's custodian bank until maturity of the
repurchase agreement. Provisions of the agreements require that the market value
of the collateral, including accrued interest thereon, is sufficient in the
event of default.
If the counterparty defaults and the value of the collateral declines or if
the counterparty enters an insolvency proceeding, realization of the collateral
by the Funds may be delayed or limited.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION--The books and records of the International
Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated
into U.S. dollars on the following basis: (I) market value of investment
securities, other assets and liabilities at the current rate of exchange; and
(II) purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses at the
relevant rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such
transactions.
The International Funds do not isolate that portion of gains and losses on
investments in securities which is due to changes in the foreign exchange rates
from that which is due to changes in market prices of such securities. The
International Funds do isolate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency
rates when determining the gain or loss upon sale or maturity of foreign
currency denominated debt obligations pursuant to the Federal income tax
regulations. Such amounts are categorized as foreign currency gain or loss for
both financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes.
The International Funds report gains and losses on foreign currency related
transactions as realized and unrealized gains and losses for financial reporting
purposes, whereas such gains and losses, to the extent realized, are treated as
ordinary income or loss for Federal income tax purposes.
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS--The International Funds enter into
forward foreign currency contracts as hedges against portfolio positions as well
as for non-hedging purposes. The aggregate principal amounts of the contracts
are not recorded as the Funds do not intend to hold the contracts to maturity.
All commitments are "marked-to-market" daily at the applicable foreign exchange
rate and any resulting unrealized gains or losses are recorded currently. The
Funds realize gains or losses at the time forward contracts are extinguished,
except that gains or losses on certain open contracts are required to be
recognized for U.S. Federal income tax purposes at the close of the Fund's
taxable year and are generally treated as ordinary income for such purposes.
FOREIGN CURRENCY OPTIONS--The premium paid by a Fund for the purchase of an
option is included in the Fund's Statement of Net Assets as an investment and
subsequently marked to market to reflect the current market value of the option.
For an option held by a Fund on the stipulated expiration date, the Fund
realizes a loss. If the Fund enters into a closing sale transaction, it realizes
a gain or loss, depending on whether the proceeds from the sale are greater or
less than the cost of the purchased option. If the Fund exercises a purchased
put option, it realizes a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying
investment and proceeds from such sale will be decreased by the premium
originally paid. If the Fund exercises a purchased call option, the cost of the
underlying investment which the Fund purchases upon exercise will be increased
by the premium originally paid. Certain foreign currency options may be required
to be marked-to-market for Federal income tax purposes at the close of a Fund's
taxable year, giving rise to a gain or loss that may, depending upon whether
certain elections are made, be capital or ordinary in character.
6
<PAGE>
DISTRIBUTIONS--Distributions from net investment income and net realized
capital gains are determined in accordance with U.S. Federal income tax
regulations, which may differ from those amounts determined under generally
accepted accounting principles. These book/tax differences are either temporary
or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, they are
charged or credited to paid in capital in the period that the difference arises.
EXPENSES--Expenses that are directly related to a Fund are charged directly
to that Fund. Other operating expenses of the Trust are prorated to the Funds on
the basis of relative net assets. Morgan Grenfell Capital Management, Inc.
absorbed all expenses of organizing the Trust.
OTHER--Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is
purchased or sold (trade date). Costs used in determining net realized capital
gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific
securities sold adjusted for the accretion and amortization of original issue
discounts and purchase premiums during the respective holding period. Original
issue discounts and purchase premiums on securities held by the Funds are
accreted and amortized ratably to maturity using the effective interest method.
Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income is
recognized using the accrual method.
3. ADMINISTRATION, INVESTMENT ADVISORY, AND DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENTS The
Trust has entered into an administration agreement with SEI Financial Management
Corporation (the "Administrator"), pursuant to which the Administrator receives
an annual fee based on the aggregate average daily net assets of all the Funds
as follows: 0.12% up to $1 billion; 0.08% from $1 billion to $1.5 billion; 0.06%
from $1.5 billion to $2.5 billion; and 0.04% in excess of $2.5 billion. Each
Fund pays the Administrator a minimum annual fee of $60,000 (after a one-year
phase in period).
The Administrator generally assists in all matters relating to the
administration of the Funds, including the coordination and monitoring of any
third parties furnishing services to the Funds, preparation and maintenance of
financial accounting records, and the provision of necessary office space,
equipment and personnel to perform administrative and clerical functions.
Under advisory agreements with the Trust, Morgan Grenfell Capital
Management, Inc. serves as the Advisor for the Domestic Funds and Morgan
Grenfell Investment Services Limited serves as the Advisor for the International
Funds (collectively referred to as "Advisors). For these services, the Advisors
are entitled to a monthly fee at an annual rate of each Fund's average daily net

Morgan Grenfell Capital Management, Inc. ("MGCM") has agreed, effective as
of July 1, 1997, to change the limit on annual operating expenses for service
shares of Morgan Grenfell Microcap Fund from 2.00% to 1.74% of average daily net
assets attributable to such shares. Accordingly, beginning on July 1, 1997, the
following disclosure should be substituted for the operating expense information
that currently appears for the Fund in the expense table on page 3 of the
Prospectus and the example information that currently appears for the Fund on
page 4 of the Prospectus:

* Microcap Fund was not operational during the fiscal year ended October 31,
1996.
** The figure shown as other expenses includes service fees of 0.25% of
the Fund's average net assets attributable to service shares. For more
information on service fees and a description of the circumstances in which
service shares will be converted to institutional shares (another class of Fund
shares), see "Management of the Funds--Service Plans" in the Prospectus.
*** MGCM has agreed to reduce its advisory fee and to make arrangments to
limit certain other expenses to the extent necessary to limit Fund Operating
Expenses for service shares of Microcap Fund, on an annual basis, to 1.74% of
the Fund's assets attributable to such shares. The above table and the following
example reflect this voluntary agreement. In its sole discretion, MGCM may
terminate or modify
<PAGE>
this agreement at any time after October 31, 1997. The purpose of the agreement
is to enhance the Fund's total return during the period when, because of its
smaller size, fixed expenses have a more significant impact on total return.
After giving effect to MGCM's voluntary agreement, the Fund's advisory fee is
0.83%. If MGCM's voluntary agreement were not in effect, the Fund Operating
Expenses for service shares of the Fund would be 2.41%.
Example:
Investors in service shares would pay the following expenses on a $1,000
investment assuming (1) a 5% annual return and (2) redemption at the end of each
time period:

MORGAN GRENFELL INVESTMENT TRUST -- APRIL 30, 1997 (UNAUDITED)
1. ORGANIZATION
Morgan Grenfell Investment Trust (the "Trust") was organized as a Delaware
business trust on September 13, 1993. The Trust is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment
company consisting of eighteen investment portfolios: Morgan Grenfell Municipal
Bond Fund, Morgan Grenfell Fixed Income Fund, Morgan Grenfell Short-Term
Municipal Bond Fund, Morgan Grenfell Short-Term Fixed Income Fund, Morgan
Grenfell Large Cap Growth Fund, Morgan Grenfell Smaller Companies Fund and
Morgan Grenfell Microcap Fund (collectively the "Domestic Funds"); Morgan
Grenfell International Equity Fund, Morgan Grenfell European Equity Fund, Morgan
Grenfell Global Equity Fund, Morgan Grenfell Pacific Basin Equity Fund, Morgan
Grenfell International Small Cap Equity Fund, Morgan Grenfell European Small Cap
Equity Fund, Morgan Grenfell Japanese Small Cap Equity Fund, Morgan Grenfell
Emerging Markets Equity Fund, Morgan Grenfell Global Fixed Income Fund, Morgan
Grenfell International Fixed Income Fund and Morgan Grenfell Emerging Markets
Debt Fund (collectively the "International Funds"). The Domestic Funds and
International Funds are hereafter referred to collectively as the "Funds". At
April 30, 1997, the Large Cap Growth Fund, Global Equity Fund, Pacific Basin
Equity Fund and Japanese Small Cap Equity Fund had not yet commenced operations.
The Funds' prospectuses provide a description of each Fund's investment
objectives, policies and strategies. These financial statements relate only to
the Microcap Fund.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires Trust 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 followed by the Funds.
SECURITY VALUATION--Securities listed on a securities exchange for which
market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sales
price on the principal exchange on which they are traded on the valuation date
or, if there is no such reported sale on the valuation date, at the most recent
quoted bid price. Unlisted securities for which market quotations are readily
availableare valued at the most recent quoted bid price. Certain debt and fixed
income investments owned by the Fundsare valued at prices supplied by
independent pricing agents selected by Morgan Grenfell Capital Management, Inc.
and Morgan Grenfell Investment Services Limited (the "Advisors"), which prices
reflect broker-dealer supplied valuations. Short-term investments are valued at
amortized cost which approximates market value. Other securities for which
market value is not readily available or securities whose market value does not,
in the opinion of the applicable Advisor, reflect fair value are valued at fair
value using methods determined in good faith by the valuation committee of the
Board of Trustees.
INCOME TAXES--It is the intention of each Fund to continue to qualify as a
regulated investment company and to distribute all of its taxable income.
Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes is considered necessary.

<PAGE>
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
================================================================================
MORGAN GRENFELL INVESTMENT TRUST -- APRIL 30, 1997 (UNAUDITED)
The International Funds may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in
which they invest with respect to their investments in issuers existing or
operating in such countries. Such taxes are generally based on either income
earned or repatriated. The International Funds accrue such taxes when the
related income is earned.
NET ASSET VALUE PER SHARE--The net asset value per share is calculated on a
daily basis by dividing the assets of each Fund, less its liabilities, by the
number of outstanding shares of the Fund.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS--Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase
agreements are held by the custodian banks until maturity of the repurchase
agreements. Provisions of the repurchase agreements and procedures adopted by
the Trust require that the market value of the collateral, including accrued
interest thereon, is sufficient in the event of default by the counterparty.
The Funds may also invest in tri-party repurchase agreements. Securities
held as collateral for tri-party repurchase agreements are maintained in a
segregated account by the broker's custodian bank until maturity of the
repurchase agreement. Provisions of the agreements require that the market value
of the collateral, including accrued interest thereon, is sufficient in the
event of default.
If the counterparty defaults and the value of the collateral declines or if
the counterparty enters an insolvency proceeding, realization of the collateral
by the Funds may be delayed or limited.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION--The books and records of the International
Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated
into U.S. dollars on the following basis: (I) market value of investment
securities, other assets and liabilities at the current rate of exchange; and
(II) purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses at the
relevant rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such
transactions.
The International Funds do not isolate that portion of gains and losses on
investments in securities which is due to changes in the foreign exchange rates
from that which is due to changes in market prices of such securities. The
International Funds do isolate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency
rates when determining the gain or loss upon sale or maturity of foreign
currency denominated debt obligations pursuant to the Federal income tax
regulations. Such amounts are categorized as foreign currency gain or loss for
both financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes.
The International Funds report gains and losses on foreign currency related
transactions as realized and unrealized gains and losses for financial reporting
purposes, whereas such gains and losses, to the extent realized, are treated as
ordinary income or loss for Federal income tax purposes.
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS--The International Funds enter into
forward foreign currency contracts as hedges against portfolio positions as well
as for non-hedging purposes. The aggregate principal amounts of the contracts
are not recorded as the Funds do not intend to hold the contracts to maturity.
All commitments are "marked-to-market" daily at the applicable foreign exchange
rate and any resulting unrealized gains or losses are recorded currently. The
Funds realize gains or losses at the time forward contracts are extinguished,
except that gains or losses on certain open contracts are required to be
recognized for U.S. Federal income tax purposes at the close of the Fund's
taxable year and are generally treated as ordinary income for such purposes.
FOREIGN CURRENCY OPTIONS--The premium paid by a Fund for the purchase of an
option is included in the Fund's Statement of Net Assets as an investment and
subsequently marked to market to reflect the current market value of the option.
For an option held by a Fund on the stipulated expiration date, the Fund
realizes a loss. If the Fund enters into a closing sale transaction, it realizes
a gain or loss, depending on whether the proceeds from the sale are greater or
less than the cost of the purchased option. If the Fund exercises a purchased
put option, it realizes a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying
investment and proceeds from such sale will be decreased by the premium
originally paid. If the Fund exercises a purchased call option, the cost of the
underlying investment which the Fund purchases upon exercise will be increased
by the premium originally paid. Certain foreign currency options may be required
to be marked-to-market for Federal income tax purposes at the close of a Fund's
taxable year, giving rise to a gain or loss that may, depending upon whether
certain elections are made, be capital or ordinary in character.
6
<PAGE>
DISTRIBUTIONS--Distributions from net investment income and net realized
capital gains are determined in accordance with U.S. Federal income tax
regulations, which may differ from those amounts determined under generally
accepted accounting principles. These book/tax differences are either temporary
or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, they are
charged or credited to paid in capital in the period that the difference arises.
EXPENSES--Expenses that are directly related to a Fund are charged directly
to that Fund. Other operating expenses of the Trust are prorated to the Funds on
the basis of relative net assets. Morgan Grenfell Capital Management, Inc.
absorbed all expenses of organizing the Trust.
OTHER--Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is
purchased or sold (trade date). Costs used in determining net realized capital
gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific
securities sold adjusted for the accretion and amortization of original issue
discounts and purchase premiums during the respective holding period. Original
issue discounts and purchase premiums on securities held by the Funds are
accreted and amortized ratably to maturity using the effective interest method.
Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income is
recognized using the accrual method.
3. ADMINISTRATION, INVESTMENT ADVISORY, AND DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENTS The
Trust has entered into an administration agreement with SEI Financial Management
Corporation (the "Administrator"), pursuant to which the Administrator receives
an annual fee based on the aggregate average daily net assets of all the Funds
as follows: 0.12% up to $1 billion; 0.08% from $1 billion to $1.5 billion; 0.06%
from $1.5 billion to $2.5 billion; and 0.04% in excess of $2.5 billion. Each
Fund pays the Administrator a minimum annual fee of $60,000 (after a one-year
phase in period).
The Administrator generally assists in all matters relating to the
administration of the Funds, including the coordination and monitoring of any
third parties furnishing services to the Funds, preparation and maintenance of
financial accounting records, and the provision of necessary office space,
equipment and personnel to perform administrative and clerical functions.
Under advisory agreements with the Trust, Morgan Grenfell Capital
Management, Inc. serves as the Advisor for the Domestic Funds and Morgan
Grenfell Investment Services Limited serves as the Advisor for the International
Funds (collectively referred to as "Advisors). For these services, the Advisors
are entitled to a monthly fee at an annual rate of each Fund's average daily net
assets as follows:

Municipal Bond Fund 0.55%
Fixed Income Fund 0.55%

Item 32. Undertaking
-----------
(a) Within four to six months from the later of (i) the effective
date of this Post-Effective Amendment under the Securities Act of 1933 and (ii)
the actual date that shares of a series are first sold to the public or
operations otherwise begin with respect to such series, the Registrant
undertakes to file a post-effective amendment covering each series of Registrant
that has not commenced operations prior to the effective date of this
Post-Effective Amendment, using financial statements which need not be
certified.
(b) Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise,
the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in such Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of
C-9
<PAGE>
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in such Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
(c) The Registrant undertakes to furnish, upon request and without
charge, to each person to whom a prospectus is delivered a copy of the latest
annual report to shareholders of such series (except to the extent a series has
not by such time been required to issue an annual report).
