CENTURA FUNDS, INC.
Supplement dated February 5, 1996
Prospectus dated August 29, 1995
If orders placed through the Company's distributor are paid for by
check, the order becomes effective on the day on which funds are made available
with respect to the check, which will generally be the Business Day following
receipt of the check if the check is received by 2:00 p.m., Eastern time. A
customer who purchases Fund shares through the Company's distributor by
personal check will be permitted to redeem those shares only after the purchase
check has been collected, which may take up to 15 days or more. Customers who
anticipate the need for more immediate access to their investment should
purchase shares with federal funds. A customer purchasing Fund shares through
a Shareholder Servicing Agent should contact his or her Shareholder Servicing
Agent with respect to the ability to purchase shares by check and the related
procedures.
