Dear Shareholder:

We at Smith Barney would like to extend a warm welcome to you as a valued
institutional shareholder in the Smith Barney Institutional Cash Management
Fund, Inc. We are pleased to provide you with the Fund's semi-annual report for
the fiscal year ended November 30, 1995. Since the Smith Barney Institutional
Cash Management Fund began in June 1995, assets have grown steadily. We hope the
Fund has proven to be a convenient, economical and competitive vehicle for your
short-term assets.

For your convenience, we have summarized the period's prevailing economic and
market conditions below. In addition, a more detailed summary of performance and
current holdings can be found in the appropriate sections that follow in the
semi-annual report.

As you may know, we offer three different Portfolios within the Smith Barney
Institutional Cash Management Fund, each of which is available in two-share
classes. The Cash Portfolio invests primarily in high-quality commercial paper,
obligations of financial institutions and U.S. government securities. The
Government Portfolio is comprised exclusively of securities issued or guaranteed
by the U.S. government, its agencies and instrumentalities, including repurchase
agreements and municipal securities collateralized or refunded with U.S.
government securities. The Municipal Portfolio invests primarily in municipal
securities whose interest is exempt from Federal income taxes. Class A shares
are designed as an economical and convenient means for investing your
organization's short-term assets, while Class B shares allow you to offer your
customers a money-market alternative.

New Service Enhancement for Cash and 
Government Portfolios

We are pleased to announce the deadline for same-day-settlement of transactions
in the Cash and Government Portfolios has been extended until 2:00 p.m., eastern
time (or 11:00 a.m., pacific time). The deadline for same-day-settlement in the
Municipal Portfolio will remain 12:00 noon (eastern time) because high-quality
municipal paper may be difficult to obtain later in the day. 

                                                                               1

Cash and Government Portfolio Updates

Early indications of fourth quarter Gross Domestic Product activity show the
economy slowing from a roughly 4.2% growth rate to 1.5%. Consumer spending has
tapered off and car sales have fallen below their typical 15 million unit pace.
With the exception of technology, the industrial sector remains weak and a cut
in inventory levels may be necessary. In our view, production should be sluggish
into early 1996. In addition, consumer concerns about job security in an era of
restructuring and layoffs and historically high levels of debt have slowed
economic growth.

Because of weaker-than-expected economic growth in the fourth quarter, the
Federal Reserve eased and the short-term yield curve has inverted on
expectations that the Federal Reserve will ease further. Overnight rates are
5.50% and 6-month Euro CDs are 5.25%. We are bullish and have maintained an
average life of 63 days for the Cash Portfolio and an average life of 43 days
for the Government Portfolio. Both Portfolios have no Japanese bank exposure and
all securities are first tier as defined by the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

On November 30, 1995, the Cash Portfolio had assets of $188.2 million dollars
and the Government Portfolio had assets of $28.7 million dollars.

Money Market Outlook

As companies substitute technology for labor to keep costs down and economic
overall growth slows, the case for a further Federal Reserve easing becomes more
compelling. We believe inflation will remain low. The real (inflation-adjusted)
federal funds rate stands at 5.50% and inflation, as measured by the Consumer
Price Index, is roughly 2.6%. In our view, current Federal Reserve policy is
overly restrictive and the federal funds rate may drop 100 basis points in the
coming months.

Municipal Portfolio

As of October 31, 1995, industry wide tax-free money fund assets increased $13.6
billion year-to-date, or 12.4%. In our view, this has taken place primarily for
the following reasons:

     -- Flatness of the yield curve
     -- Migration of bank customers to money funds
     -- The calling of municipal securities
     -- New shorter settlement period for security transactions
     -- Concern that certain tax reform proposals could eliminate the tax-
        advantaged status of municipal bonds

On November 30, 1995, the Municipal Portfolio had assets of $37.6 million
dollars and the Portfolio's average life was 44 days.

Municipal Bond Market Outlook

In our view, December's easing by the Federal Reserve may not be the last
because the economy should grow at a slower rate for a while longer. A soft
economy and a benign inflation environment are likely to encourage further
easing steps. At least for the beginning of 1996, we expect that legislative
risk will remain one of the most important factors in the municipal bond market.
Normally, with the Federal Reserve likely to ease, the short-end of the
municipal yield curve would steepen along with that of Treasuries. However, if
the budget proposal to eliminate the 2% de minimis rule for corporations were to
be enacted, we would expect the short end of the municipal yield curve to
flatten over time as many corporations would cease new purchases and allow their
holdings to run off.

At this time, we would like to thank you for your investment in Smith Barney
Institutional Cash Management Fund.

Sincerely,

/s/ Heath B. McLendon

  1.  Significant Accounting Policies

  Smith Barney Institutional Cash Management Fund, Inc. ("Fund"), a Maryland
corporation, is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Fund consists of
three separate investment portfolios ("Portfolios"): Cash Portfolio ("Cash"),
Government Portfolio ("Government") and Municipal Portfolio ("Municipal").

  The significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolios
are: (a) transactions in money market instruments and government obligations are
recorded on trade date; (b) the Fund uses the amortized cost method for valuing
investments; accordingly, the cost of securities plus accreted discount, or
minus amortized premium, approximates market value; (c) interest income is
recorded on the accrual basis; (d) direct expenses are charged to each portfolio
and each class; management fees and general fund expenses are allocated on the
basis of relative net assets; and (e) the Portfolios intend to comply with the
applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended,
pertaining to regulated investment companies and to make distributions of
taxable income sufficient to be relieved from substantially all Federal income
and excise taxes.

  2.  Management Agreement and Other Transactions

  Smith Barney Mutual Funds Management Inc. ("SBMFM"), a subsidiary of Smith
Barney Holdings, Inc. ("SBH"), acts as investment manager of the Fund. As
compensation for its services, each Portfolio pays SBMFM a management fee
calculated at the annual rate of 0.27% of the average daily net assets of each
respective Portfolio. This fee is calculated daily and paid monthly.

  For the period ended November 30, 1995, SBMFM waived $109,442, $20,921 and
$13,416 of its management fees for Cash, Government and Municipal, respectively.
In addition, SBMFM has agreed to reimburse Government for expenses of $29,184
and Municipal for expenses of $25,328.

  Smith Barney Inc. ("SB"), another subsidiary of SBH, acts as distributor of
Fund shares.

  All officers and two Directors of the Fund are employees of SB.

                                                                              15

  3.  Dividends, Exempt-Interest Dividends and Other
      Distributions

  Each portfolio declares and records a dividend of substantially all of its net
investment income on each business day. Such dividends are paid or reinvested
monthly in each respective portfolio's shares on the payable date.

  Furthermore, Municipal intends to satisfy conditions that will enable interest
from municipal securities, which is exempt from Federal income tax and from
designated state income taxes, to retain such status when distributed to its
shareholders.

  Capital gain distributions, if any, are taxable to shareholders, and are
declared and paid at least annually.

  4.  Repurchase Agreements

  The Fund purchases, and its custodian takes possession of, U.S. Government
securities from banks and securities dealers subject to agreements to resell the
securities to the sellers at a future date (generally, the next business day) at
an agreed-upon higher repurchase price. The Fund requires continual maintenance
of the market value of the collateral in amounts at least equal to the
repurchase price.

  5.  Capital Shares

  At November 30, 1995, the Fund had 75,000,000,000 shares of capital stock
authorized with a par value of $0.00001 per share.  The Fund has the ability to
issue multiple classes of shares within the Portfolios.

  Transactions in shares of each Portfolio were as follows:
