DWFCM INTERNATIONAL ACCESS FUND L.P.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
The financial statements include, in the opinion of management,
all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results
of operations and financial condition of DWFCM International
Access Fund L.P. (the "Partnership"). The financial statements
and condensed notes herein should be read in conjunction with the
Partnership's December 31, 1998 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
1. Organization
DWFCM International Access Fund L.P. is a limited partnership
organized to engage primarily in the speculative trading of
futures and forward contracts, physical commodities, and other
commodity interests including foreign currencies, financial
instruments, metals, energy and agricultural products
(collectively, "futures interests"). The general partner for the
Partnership is Demeter Management Corporation ("Demeter"). The
non-clearing commodity broker is Dean Witter Reynolds Inc.
("DWR") and an unaffiliated clearing commodity broker, Carr
Futures Inc. ("Carr"), provides clearing and execution services.
The Trading Manager is Dean Witter Futures & Currency Management
Inc. ("DWFCM" or the "Trading Manager"). Demeter, DWR, and DWFCM
are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Morgan Stanley Dean Witter & Co.
("MSDW").
<PAGE>
DWFCM INTERNATIONAL ACCESS FUND L.P.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
2. Related Party Transactions
The Partnership's cash is on deposit with DWR and Carr in futures
interests trading accounts to meet margin requirements as needed.
DWR pays interest on these funds based on current 13-week U.S.
Treasury bill rates. The Partnership pays brokerage commissions
to DWR. Management and incentive fees (if any) incurred by the
Partnership are paid to DWFCM.
3. Financial Instruments
The Partnership trades futures and forward contracts, physical
commodities and other commodities interests including foreign
currencies, financial instruments, metals, energy, and
agricultural products. Futures and forwards represent contracts
for delayed delivery of an instrument at a specified date and
price. Risk arises from changes in the value of these contracts
and the potential inability of counterparties to perform under
the terms of the contracts. There are numerous factors which may
significantly influence the market value of these contracts,
including interest rate volatility.
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities"
effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. The
<PAGE>
DWFCM INTERNATIONAL ACCESS FUND L.P.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
Partnership elected to adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 133
beginning with the fiscal year that ended December 31, 1998.
SFAS No. 133 supersedes SFAS No. 119 and No. 105, which required
the disclosure of average aggregate fair values and
contract/notional values, respectively, of derivative financial
instruments for an entity which carries its assets at fair value.
The application of SFAS No. 133 does not have a significant
effect on the Partnership's financial statements.
The net unrealized gain (loss) on open contracts is reported as a
component of "Equity in futures interests trading accounts" on
the Statements of Financial Condition and totaled $1,099,132 and
$(446,189) at September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998,
respectively.
Of the $1,099,132 net unrealized gain on open contracts at
September 30, 1999, $989,511 related to exchange-traded futures
contracts and $109,621 related to off-exchange-traded forward
currency contracts.
Of the $446,189 net unrealized loss on open contracts at December
31, 1998, $1,485,813 related to exchange-traded futures contracts
and $(1,932,002) related to off-exchange-traded forward currency
contracts.
<PAGE>
DWFCM INTERNATIONAL ACCESS FUND L.P.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
Exchange-traded futures contracts held by the Partnership at
September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998 mature through March
2000 and June 1999, respectively. Off-exchange-traded forward
currency contracts held by the Partnership at September 30, 1999
and December 31, 1998 mature through December 1999 and March
1999, respectively.
The Partnership is subject to the credit risk associated with
counterparty non-performance. The credit risk associated with
the instruments in which the Partnership is involved is limited
to the amounts reflected in the Partnership's Statements of
Financial Condition. DWR and Carr act as the futures commission
merchants or the counterparties with respect to most of the
Partnership's assets. Exchange-traded futures contracts are
marked to market on a daily basis, with variations in value
settled on a daily basis. Each of DWR and Carr, as a futures
commission merchant for all of the Partnership's exchange-traded
futures contracts, are required, pursuant to regulations of the
Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC") to segregate from
their own assets, and for the sole benefit of their commodity
customers, all funds held by them with respect to exchange-traded
futures contracts, including an amount equal to the net
unrealized gain (loss) on all open futures contracts, which
funds, in the aggregate, totaled $39,716,808 and $47,697,699 at
September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, respectively.
<PAGE>
DWFCM INTERNATIONAL ACCESS FUND L.P.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONCLUDED)
With respect to the Partnership's off-exchange-traded forward
currency contracts, there are no daily settlements of variations
in value nor is there any requirement that an amount equal to the
net unrealized gain on open forward contracts be segregated.
With respect to those off-exchange-traded forward currency
contracts, the Partnership is at risk to the ability of Carr, the
sole counterparty on all of such contractsy: /s/ Lewis A. Raibley, III
