BISHOP STREET FUNDS
SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT -- JUNE 30, 1997
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. ORGANIZATION
The Bishop Street Funds (the "Trust") are registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end, management investment company.
The Bishop Street Funds consists of a series of five funds which includes the
Equity Fund and the High Grade Income Fund (the "Funds"). The Funds commenced
operations on January 31, 1997. The other Funds in the series which are not
being reported at this time include the Hawaii Municipal Bond Fund (formerly the
Hawaii Tax-Free Fund), the Treasury Money Market Fund and the Money Market Fund.
The Bishop Street Funds Declaration of Trust permits the Trust to offer separate
portfolios of shares and different classes of each portfolio. The assets of each
Fund are segregated, and a shareholder's interest is limited to the Fund in
which shares are held. The Funds' prospectus provides a description of each
Fund's investment objectives, policies and strategies.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by
the Trust.
SECURITY VALUATION
For the Equity Fund investment securities which are traded on a national
securities exchange (or reported on the NASDAQ national market system) are
stated at the last quoted sales price if readily available for such equity
securities on each business day; other equity securities traded in the over-the-
counter market and listed equity securities for which no sale was reported on
that date are stated at the last quoted bid price.
For the High Grade Income Fund debt obligations exceeding sixty days to
maturity for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the
most recently quoted bid price. Debt obligations with sixty days or less
remaining until maturity may be valued at their amortized cost. Restricted
securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair
value using methods determined in good faith under general Trustee supervision.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME
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 securities are those of the specific securities
sold adjusted for the accretion and amortization of the purchase discounts and
premiums during the respective holding periods. Interest income is recorded on
the accrual basis.
DISCOUNTS AND PREMIUMS
Discounts and premiums are accreted or amortized over the life of each
security and are recorded as interest income for each of the Funds using a
method which approximates the effective interest method.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
Securities pledged as collateral for Repurchase Agreements are held by the
custodian bank until the respective agreements mature. Provisions of repurchase
agreements and procedures adopted by the Adviser ensure that the market value of
the collateral is sufficient in the event of default by the counterparty. 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 Fund may be delayed or limited.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
EXPENSES
Expenses that are directly related to one of the Funds are charged directly
to that Fund. Other operating expenses of the Trust are prorated to the Funds on
the basis of relative net assets.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS
Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and paid on a
monthly basis for the High Grade Income Fund. The Equity Fund declares and pays
such distributions on a quarterly basis. Any net realized capital gains will be
distributed at least annually for both Funds.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
It is each Fund's intention to qualify as a regulated investment company for
Federal income tax purposes and to distribute all of its taxable income and net
capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes is required.
ORGANIZATION COSTS
Organization costs have been capitalized by the Funds and are being
amortized over sixty months commencing with operations. In the event any of the
initial shares are redeemed by any holder thereof during the period that the
fund is amortizing its organization costs, the redemption proceeds payable to
the holder thereof prior to the end of the amortization period, the proceeds
will be reduced by the unamortized organization costs in the same ratio as the
number of initial shares being redeemed bears to the number of initial shares
outstanding at the time of the redemption.
USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles, requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
3. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT
Investment advisory services are provided to the Funds by First Hawaiian
Bank (the "Adviser"). The Adviser is entitled to receive an annual fee of 0.74%
of the average daily net assets of the Equity Fund and 0.55% of the average
daily net assets of the High Grade Income Fund. The Adviser may from time to
time waive a portion of its fee in order to limit the operating expenses of the
Fund.
4. ADMINISTRATIVE, TRANSFER AGENT AND DISTRIBUTION SERVICES
Pursuant to an administration agreement dated January 27, 1995, (the
"Agreement") SEI Fund Resources ("SEI"), a wholly owned subsidiary of SEI
Investments, acts as the Trust's Administrator. Under the terms of the
Agreement, SEI is entitled to receive an annual fee of 0.20% of the average
daily net assets of each Fund. SEI has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of
its fee in order to limit operating expenses.
