LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
February 28, 1995
Dear TIP Member:
We are pleased to present the Annual Report to Members of the
TIFF Investment Program, Inc. (TIP). As you know, TIP is a family of
multi-manager, commingled funds open exclusively to grantmaking
foundations.
We are pleased to note that, in addition to the five Funds that are
currently operational (described herein), two new Funds have recently been
added to the TIP family: TIFF Multi-Asset Fund and TIFF Global Equity
Fund. All of TIP's Funds enable member foundations to delegate to TIP's
responsibility for the time-intensive tasks of selecting money managers and
other vendors. The Multi-Asset Fund and, to a much lesser extent, the
Global Equity Fund will go beyond this by providing Members with an
opportunity to also delegate to TIP responsibility for the all-important task
of asset allocation. Each Fund will commence operations as soon as adequate
capital commitments have been received.
We are very gratified by the favorable reception that TIP has
received from the foundation community. We are engaged in active
discussions with numerous foundations throughout the United States that
have expressed interest in learning more about TIP, and would welcome the
opportunity to discuss this exciting new initiative with other eligible
investors.
For further information about the TIFF Investment Program, please
call us at 800-984-0084.
Sincerely,
by: \s\David A. Salem
David A. Salem
President

U.S. Equity Fund
Graph: Comparison of change in value of $10,000 Investment in TIFF U.S. Equity
and the Wilshire 5000 Stock Index where the X-axis extends from 5/31/94 to
12/31/94 and the Y-axis extends from $9,700 to $10,500.
Performance Evaluation
From inception (5/31/94) through 12/31/94, the
TIFF U.S. Equity Fund had a total return net of expenses of 3.5%. The
return for its benchmark, the Wilshire 5000, over the same time period was
1.8%. The fund's strong relative performance during 4Q 1994 boosted the
margin by which it has outperformed the Wilshire 5000 since inception from
40 bp to 170 bp. While it is too soon to draw conclusions about the
effectiveness of the fund's structure or evolving strategies, it is pleasing
that its distinctive structure has, thus far, worked in the intended manner.
The fund's structure is distinctive not because it entails broad
diversification across all market sectors - most multi-manager structures do
this - but because it does so by combining relatively aggressive active
strategies with a low cost "completeness" portfolio. The completeness
portfolio obviates the problem of paying active manager fees on stocks held
solely for diversification purposes. The operative premise is that in any
given time period one, or at most a few, of the fund's active managers will
produce sizeable excess returns which, when coupled with market-like results
produced (on average) by the fund's residual holdings, will produce a
modest return advantage over the Wilshire 5000: this is precisely what
happened during 4Q 1994, with Palo Alto investors' technology holdings
(which it has since trimmed back) performing particularly well.
Policy Considerations
Long Term - The Fund is designed as a core investment vehicle for that
portion of a foundation's assets committed to U.S. stocks. Accordingly, it
employs a diverse combination of managers and strategies.
Short Term - 1994 was the worst year for bond investors in many decades.
Stocks fell along with bonds during part of the year, but finished the year
stronger, increasing institutional stock ratios in the process. Although last
among the policy choices that collectively constitute long-term asset
allocation, the adoption of sound rebalancing disciplines can boost returns as
much as a fairly large shift in the policy mix itself. Now could be an
opportune time to rebalance asset mixes back toward normal stock/bond
ratios.

TIFF INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND
Graph: Comparison of change in value of $10,000 Investment in TIFF
International Equity Fund and the MSCI All Country World EX USA Stock Index
where the X-axis extends from 5/31/94 to 12/31/94 and the Y-axis extends from
$10,000 to $11,000.
Performance Evaluation - The TIFF International Equity Fund had a total
return net of expenses of 1.0% from inception (5/31/94) through 12/31/94; its
benchmark, the Morgan Stanley Capital International All Country World ex
US Index (ACWxUS), had a return of 0.1%. By design, the Fund's primary
means of outperforming its benchmark are its managers' individual security
selections, not country bets. These selections added considerable value
during the fund's first four months of operations, but caused the Fund to
underperform the ACWxUS by 1.0% during 4Q 1994. Since inception, the
Fund has beaten this benchmark by 0.9%, and the EAFE Index of developed
markets by 0.5%. (All returns are net of fees.) The 21 emerging markets
that are included in the ACWxUS but excluded from EAFE did poorly
relative to developed markets during 4Q 1994, causing the former index to
underperform EAFE slightly (0.4%) from the fund's inception date through
year-end. The fund's biggest country bet, which is the product of stock
selection criteria more than top-down country analysis, remains an
underweighting in Japan (30.5% versus Japan's 38.5% weight in the
ACWxUS). Several of the Fund's managers believe that the yen is
especially vulnerable against the U.S. dollar, and their hedging has produced
a 10.2% underweighting in yen-denominated securities.
Policy Considerations
Long-Term - The Fund is designed as a core vehicle for that portion of a
Foundation's assets committed to foreign stocks. Its benchmark comprises
virtually all non-U.S. markets in which stocks trade on a regular basis. The
vast size of this opportunity set, coupled with the inefficiencies of foreign
markets, arguably makes it easier for international equity managers to
outperform their benchmarks than it is for domestic equity managers to
outperform the more efficient U.S. market. All else equal, this translates into
higher long-term expected returns for international portfolios than for strictly
domestic ones, reinforcing the case for a material commitment by long-term
investors to non-U.S. stocks.
Short-Term - The Fund is extremely well diversified across both countries
and industries. In an effort to guard against a reversal of the U.S. dollar's
weakness in recent years, the fund's managers have hedged a portion of the
fund's foreign currency exposure back into the greenback. This boosts the
fund's effective "dollar bloc" exposure to 29.3%: 11.8% via hedges, and
the remainder via holdings in foreign countries whose currencies are linked
to the U.S. dollar. This 29.3% weighting represents a 13.6% tilt in favor of
the dollar relative to its effective neutral weighting in the fund's benchmark
of 15.7%.

TIFF EMERGING MARKETS FUND
Graph: Comparison of change in value of $10,000 Investment in TIFF Emerging
Markets Fund and the MSCI Emerging Markets Free Stock Index where the X-axis
extends from 5/31/94 to 12/31/94 and the Y-axis extends from $9,000 to $11,800.
Performance Evaluation - From inception (5/31/94) through 12/31/94, the TIFF
Emerging Markets Fund had a total return net of expenses of -7.0%. The
return for its benchmark, the Morgan Stanley Capital International Emerging
Markets Free Index (EMF Index), over the same time period was -0.2%.
Although the Fund outperformed the EMF Index during 4Q 1994, it did not
escape the recent downdraft in emerging markets and it continues to lag the
Index since inception. The Fund's performance deficit narrowed during the
quarter dramatically so from mid-October through December 2, after which
the deficit began widening again. The reason that the Fund entered 4Q 1994
lagging its benchmark (Fund up 9%, its benchmark up 8% more) is because
its primary manager during its first four months of operations - Emerging
Markets Management (EMM) - employs disciplines that induced it to invest
capital very slowly, despite - indeed because of - rapidly rising prices in its
selection universe. The Fund's cash reserves cushioned losses during the
roughly 10% decline in emerging market averages from mid-September
through early December, but decisions by EMM and BEA to exploit market
weakness by converting pre-existing reserves as well as much of the cash
flowing into the Fund into stocks caused the Fund's share price to drop by
8.2% from December 2 to year-end. In hindsight, the managers would have
done well to postpone these purchases, but emerging markets had already
fallen materially from their September highs and the managers could not
know that stocks they deemed attractively priced would become cheaper still
by year-end.
Policy Considerations
Long-Term - Foundations should not expect to earn superior returns from
emerging market stocks solely because the economies of the countries in
which they are traded are growing rapidly: while there may be some
opportunities to exploit superior growth prospects, the safer assumption is
that superior growth will already be reflected in securities prices.
Ironically, the strongest argument in favor of emerging market investing is that
emerging markets embody many risks that unnerve investors: disclosure
standards are lax, custodial procedures remain imperfect, insider trading is
widespread, and market psychology often causes the price pendulum to swing
to unjustified extremes. These risks spell opportunity for skilled investors,
to exploit valuation anomalies, rather than superior growth, in emerging market
economies.
Short-Term - Panic selling in down markets by growth-oriented investors
belatedly discovering that their time horizons are shorter than they'd earlier
supposed has spawned legitimate opportunities for value investors in
emerging markets. But the very fact that these opportunities derive more
from shrinking investor time horizons than from improving fundamentals
makes the short-term risks of investing in emerging markets especially acute.
Foundation boards seeking to exploit the recent turmoil in such markets
should be doubly sure that their time horizons are indeed long term -
especially if the proposed move represents their initial foray into emerging
markets.

TIFF BOND FUND
Graph: Comparison of change in value of $10,000 Investment in TIFF BOND
Fund and the Lehman Aggregate Bond Index where the X-axis extends from 5/31/94
to 12/31/94 and the Y-axis extends from $9,900 to $10,300.
Performance Evaluation - From inception (5/31/94) through 12/31/94, the TIFF
Bond Fund had a total return net of expenses of 0.5%, the return for its
benchmark, the Lehman Aggregate Bond Index, over the same time period
was 0.8%. Managers - The bad news is that, on average, the Fund's
managers have produced only mediocre results to date: one (FFTW) is
comfortably ahead of its benchmark since inception, two are slightly ahead,
and one is slightly behind, prior to the deduction of manager and custodial
fees, which have thus far consumed 0.29% (29 bp) of the Fund's capital.
The good news is that the Fund's rapid growth will put downward pressure
on its expense ratio, as will automatic reductions in manager fees if future
performance proves less than stellar. (All four managers receive
performance-based fees.) Of course, the directors' hope is that reduced
custody costs will be at least partly offset by increased manager fees - fees
that will be rising to reflect improved performance by the fund's managers.
FAI - TIP permits FAI to make modest sector tilts - e.g., to tilt the Fund
toward mortgage-backed securities by allocating more than the neutral 28.9%
to Smith Breeden. With one exception, FAI has refrained from making any
such tilts. The exception has been a small (and thus far winning) tilt toward
foreign bonds via FFTW. The current tilt is 4.85% (FFTW's 9.7%
allocation times foreign bonds' 50% weight in FFTW's benchmark).
Policy Considerations
Long Term - The fund's chief aim is to help foundations weather
deflationary times without being forced to liquidate their equity holdings at
depressed prices. As a form of deflation "insurance," bonds emphasized by
the Fund (intermediate or longer-term, high quality, non-callable) tend to
perform poorly when investors are spooked by unexpected strength in the
economy, as they were throughout much of 1994. Rising bond yields since
bond prices peaked in October 1993 have materially reduced the cost of
deflation protection. This could be an opportune time for foundations that
lack adequate deflation protection to obtain it.
Short Term - Bonds currently offer abnormally high inflation-adjusted yields
that pose stiff competition to equities, and some institutions have elected to
tilt their "swing" portfolios toward bonds, including foreign issues.

TIFF SHORT-TERM FUND
Graph: Comparison of change in value of $10,000 Investment in TIFF Short-
Term Fund and the Merrill Lynch 182-Day Treasury Bill Index where the X-axis
extends from 5/31/94 to 12/31/94 and the Y-axis extends from $9,900 to $10,400.
Performance Evaluation - From inception (5/31/94) through 12/31/94, the
TIFF Short-Term Fund had a total return net of expenses of 3.1%, the return
for its benchmark, the Merrill Lynch 182-Day Treasury Bill Index, over the
same time period was 2.8%. The Fund's aim (admittedly modest) is to
outperform its 6-month Treasury Bill benchmark net of all costs. In its first
seven months of operations, it has outperformed this benchmark by 0.3% net
of expenses. This margin would have been larger if the Fund itself were
larger; increased assets would permit fixed costs (e.g., portfolio accounting)
to be spread over a larger asset base. TIP's directors remain hopeful that an
increasing number of foundations will view the Fund as a cost-efficient
alternative to other cash management vehicles. In the meantime, until the
FUND's assets grow, the vendors it employs have agreed to waive fees as
needed to keep the FUNd's overall expense ratio within reasonable bounds.
Policy Considerations
As experienced foundation fiduciaries, directors of TIP and FAI recognize
that many foundations seek to control downward fluctuations in the monetary
value of assets earmarked for spending within twelve months ("current year
spending") by investing them exclusively in cash equivalents. However, TIP
studies of the risk and return characteristics of alternate short-term
investment strategies suggest that a short-term income fund whose average
maturity ranges between the one to three months typical of regulated money
market funds and the six months inherent in the TIFF Short-Term fund's
performance benchmark arguably comports better with foundations' short-
term investment goals than money market funds per se. Although the market
value of six-month Treasury Bills can decline when short-term interest rates
are rising sharply, there is a very high probability that such instruments will
produce positive total returns in any given month, and a near certainty that
they will do so over time horizons exceeding one month. To ensure that the
fund's managers do not take undue risks in their efforts to outperform their
6-month Treasury Bill benchmark, TIP imposes on them a number of
restrictions, including maturity limits which ensure that the average duration
of the fund's holdings does not exceed 6 months. Also, while the Fund may
own debt securities of all grades, not more than 5% of its total assets may be
invested in securities rated below investment grade (i.e., rated below BBB by
S&P or Baa by Moody's). The yield on 6-month Treasury Bills rose during
the fourth quarter of 1994 from 5.42% on September 30 to 6.50% at year-
end, boosting the absolute change in yields for all of 1994 to 3.21% (3.29%
at the beginning of January versus 6.50% at year-end). Although inflation
accelerated also, it did so at a more subdued rate. The net result: higher
real returns to Fund Members.

1. Organization
TIFF Investment Program, Inc. ("TIP") was organized as a Maryland
corporation on December 23, 1993 and is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end, management investment
company. TIP currently has five Funds. The five active Funds are: TIFF
U.S. Equity Fund ("U.S. Equity"), TIFF International Equity Fund
("International Equity"), TIFF Emerging Markets Fund ("Emerging
Markets"), TIFF Bond Fund ("Bond"), and TIFF Short-Term Fund ("Short-
Term"). The costs incurred by the Fund in connection with the organization
and initial registration of shares are being amortized on a straight-line basis
over a sixty-month period. The unamortized balance of organizational
expenses at December 31, 1994 was $78,430.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Securities
All securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Interest income
and expense are recorded on an accrual basis. The Funds amortize discount
or premium on a daily basis to interest income. Dividend income is recorded
on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities
which are recorded as soon as the funds are notified. The Funds use 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 Fund will
elect to be taxed as a regulated investment company ("RIC") and intends to
comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code
applicable to RICs and to distribute all of its taxable income. Net realized
losses attributable to security transactions after October 31 are treated as
arising on the first day of the Fund's next fiscal year. The Fund may be
subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments or currency
repatriation. The Fund accrues such taxes as applicable. At December 31,
1994 the Bond Fund had a capital loss carry forward of $151,717 which may
be available to offset future realized capital gains, if any. This amount will
expire December 31, 2002.
Valuation
All investments 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,
repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements are generally
valued at their cost plus accrued interest. Securities purchased with sixty
days or less to maturity are priced at amortized cost which approximates fair
value. The value of other investments is determined under procedures
established by the Fund's Board of Directors.
Expenses
Expenses directly attributed to each Fund are charged to that Fund's
operations; expenses which are applicable to all Funds are allocated among
them based on their respective average daily net assets. The investment
adviser waived $6,593 and $1,307 in fees, respectively, and the administrator
waived $1,496 and $2,179, respectively, for the Emerging Markets and Short
Term Funds. Money Managers waived $8,685 in fees in the Short-Term
Fund. The custodian waived $59,138, $75,789, $70,997, $97,045, and
$46,325 in the U.S. Equity, International Equity, Emerging Markets, Bond,
and Short-Term Funds, respectively.
Dividends to Shareholders
It is the policy of Bond and Short-Term, U.S. Equity, International Equity,
and Emerging Markets to declare dividends daily, quarterly, semi-annually,
and annually, respectively, from net investment income. Dividends are paid
in cash or reinvested monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, and annually,
respectively.
Dividends from net short-term capital gains and net long-term capital gains
of each Fund, if any, are normally declared and paid annually, but each Fund
may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the
distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. To the extent that a
net realized capital gain can be reduced by a capital loss carryover, such gain
will not be distributed.
The classification of income and capital gains distributions is determined in
accordance with income tax regulations. Permanent book and tax differences
relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid-
in capital and may affect net investment income per share. Undistributed net
investment income, accumulated net investment loss, or distributions in
excess of net investment income may include temporary book and tax
differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
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. Unrealized net currency gains and losses from valuing foreign
currency-denominated assets and liabilities at period-end exchange rates are
reflected as a component of net unrealized appreciation (depreciation).
3. Investment Advisory Agreement and Money Manager Agreements
The Fund's Board of Directors has approved investment management
agreements with FAI. Each Fund pays FAI a maximum monthly fee
calculated by applying the following annual basis point ("bp") rates to such
Fund's average daily net assets for the month (100 bp equals 1.00%):
<TABLE>
<S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C>

</TABLE>
The Fund's Board of Directors has approved Money Manager agreements
with each of the money managers. Money Managers will receive annual
management fees equal to a stated percentage of the value of Fund assets
under management that is adjusted upwards or downwards, proportionately,
to reflect actual investment performance over the applicable time period
relative to a chosen benchmark rate of return. Certain Money Managers,
however, will receive management fees equal to a flat percentage per annum
of assets under management.
The following identifies Money Managers who provide services to the Funds
and the minimum and maximum fee rate. Unless otherwise indicated, the
management fee received by a Money Manager varies based on the Money
Manager's investment performance:

Forward Foreign Exchange Currency Contracts
The Funds enter into forward foreign exchange currency contracts
in order to hedge exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange
rates on 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. Fluctuations in the value of forward
foreign currency contracts are recorded for book purposes as unrealized gains
or losses by the Funds. 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.
At December 31, 1994, International Equity had outstanding forward foreign
exchange currency contracts to sell foreign currencies, as follows:

Financial Futures ContractsThe Funds are engaged in trading
financial futures contracts. The Funds are exposed to market risk as a result
of changes in the value of the underlying financial instruments. Investments
in financial futures require a Fund to "mark to market" on a daily basis,
which reflects the change in the market value of the contract at the close of
each day's trading. Accordingly, variation margin payments are made or
received to reflect daily unrealized gains or losses. When the contracts are
closed, the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss. These investments
require initial margin deposits which consist of cash or cash equivalents,
equal to approximately 5-10% of the contract amount. The Funds each
maintain a segregated account of cash or other securities with the custodian
sufficient to cover its futures positions. The Funds do not employ leverage.
At December 31, 1994, the Funds segregated investments in connection with
their margin accounts with respect to their financial futures contracts in the
following amounts:

Short Selling
U.S. Equity Fund engages in short-selling which obligates the Fund to
replace the security borrowed by purchasing it at the market price at the time
of replacement. Until the security is replaced, the Fund is required to pay the
lender any dividends declared. The Fund would realize a gain if the security
declines in price between the date of the short sale and the date on which the
Fund replaces the borrowed security. The Fund would incur a loss as a result
of the short sale if the price of the security increases between those dates.
Until the Fund replaces the borrowed security it will maintain a segregated
account of cash and/or U.S. Government securities with its custodian
sufficient to cover its short position.
Options
When a Fund purchases an option, an amount equal to the premium paid by
the Fund is included in the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an
investment and subsequently "mark-to-market" to reflect the current market
value of the option purchased. The current market value of a purchased
option is the last sale price on the market on which it is principally traded.
If the purchased option expires, the Fund realizes a loss, in the amount of the
premium. 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 option.
If the Fund exercises a call option, the cost of the securities acquired by
exercising the call is increased by the premium paid to buy the call. If the
Fund exercises a put option, it realizes a gain or loss from the sale of the
underlying security and the proceeds from such sale are decreased by the
premium originally paid.
5. Repurchase and Reverse Repurchase Agreements
Each Fund 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 Fund and repurchase such securities from such Fund at a
mutually agreed upon price and date.
Each Fund 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 Fund and such Fund agrees to
repurchase the securities at an agreed upon price and date.
Each Fund 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 Fund 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, such Fund maintains the right to sell the underlying securities at
market value and may claim any resulting loss against the seller.
6. Capital Share Transactions
As of December 31, 1994, there were 2,500,000,000 shares of $0.001 par
value capital stock authorized. Transactions in capital stock were as follows
for the period from May 31, 1994 (commencement of operations) to
December 31,1994:

Net Increase 3,428,915 34,301,318
7. Security Lending
The Funds receive securities issued or guaranteed by the
U.S. Government or its agencies, cash or letters of credit as collateral against
the loaned securities, in an amount at least equal to 100% of the current
market value of the loaned securities. At December 31, 1994, all collateral
received was cash and was subsequently invested in cash equivalents.
As of December 31, 1994, the value of the loaned securities outstanding and
the related collateral was as follows:
Value of Loaned
Securities Collateral
Fund ($000) ($000)
U.S. Equity 815,313 1,160,100
International Equity 1,964,893 2,666,916
Emerging Markets 2,241,576 2,944,320
Bond 2,639,804 2,716,275
Short-Term - -
8. Delayed Delivery Transactions The Funds may purchase or sell securities
on a when-issued or forward commitment basis. Payment and delivery may
take place a month or more after the date of the transaction. The price of the
underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and
paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The Fund
identifies securities as segregated in its custodial records with a value at
least equal to the amount of the purchase commitment.
Bond Fund enters into "TBA" (to be announced) purchase commitments to
purchase securities for a fixed unit price at a future date beyond customary
settlement time. Although the unit price has been established, the principal
value has not been finalized. However, the amount of the commitment will
not fluctuate more than 2.0% from the principal amount. The Fund holds,
and maintains until the settlement date, cash or high-grade debt obligations
in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. TBA purchase
commitments may be considered securities in themselves, and involve a risk
of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines prior to the
settlement date, which risk is in addition to the risk of decline in the value
of the Fund's other assets. Unsettled TBA purchase commitments are valued at
the current market value of the underlying securities, generally according to
the procedures described under "Valuation" above.
Although the Fund will generally enter into TBA purchase commitments
with the intention of acquiring securities for its portfolio, the Fund may
dispose of a commitment prior to settlement if the Fund's Money Manager
deems it appropriate to do so.
9. Credit Risk in the Emerging Markets
The Emerging Markets Fund's relatively large investment in countries with
limited or developing capital markets may involve greater risks than
investments in more developed markets and the prices of such investments
may be volatile. While the Fund's investment in emerging markets debt is
limited, the yields of these obligations reflect perceived credit risk. The
consequences of political, social, or economic changes in these markets may
have disruptive effects on the market prices of the Fund's investment and the
income they generate, as well as the Fund's ability to repatriate such
amounts.
10. Federal Income Tax Information

of the dividend paid deduction for the period ended December 31, 1994 as

Report of Independent Accountants
February 28, 1995
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of the
TIFF Investment Program
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets and the related
statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial
highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
the TIFF Investment Program (TIP) which consists of TIFF U.S. Equity Fund, TIFF
International Equity Fund, TIFF Emerging Markets Fund, TIFF Bond Fund, and TIFF
Short-Term Fund, at December 31, 1994, the results of their operations, the
changes in their net assets, and their financial highlights for the period May
31, 1994 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 1994, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. These financil statements and the
financial highlights (thereafter referred to as "finacial statements") are the
responsibility of the Funds' management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our
audit of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit reasonable
assurance aobut whether the financial statments are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audit, which included confirmation of securities owned at December 31, 1994 by
correspondence with the costodian and brokers and the application of
alternative auditing procedures where confirmations from brokers were not
received, provides a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
