EAFE EQUITY INDEX FUND

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------

We are pleased to present you with this first semi-annual report for the BT
Advisor EAFE Equity Index Fund, providing a detailed review of the market, the
portfolio, and our outlook. Included is a complete financial summary of the
Fund's operations and a listing of the Portfolio's holdings.

The EAFE Equity Index Fund (the "Fund") has not been in operation for a full
six months, but from EAFE Equity Index Fund's Institutional Class Shares
inception January 24, 1996, through June 30, 1996, it was up 5.70% and EAFE
Equity Index Fund's Advisor Class Shares inception June 20, 1996 through June
30, 1996, it is up 0.30%. For the quarter ended June 30, 1996, the Fund returned
1.83%, closely tracking the 1.58% return of the MSCI EAFE Index.

OBJECTIVE Seeks to replicate as closely as possible the total return of the
Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe Australia
Far East (EAFE) Index.

MARKET ACTIVITY

Overall, 19 of the 20 EAFE markets posted gains for the six month period ended
June 30, 1996, and the MSCI EAFE Index was up 4.5%. Market leadership shifted
early in the period from the Pacific Basin countries to Europe, as the
Bundesbank eased its monetary policy in January. Though now on hold based on the
excessive rise of the closely followed money supply measure, M3, year-to-date,
Germany's discount rate, at 2.5%, is the lowest it has been since 1987.

EUROPE

Regionally, Europe rose 6.4% during the semi-annual period. Seven nations had
double-digit returns, including Ireland, Sweden, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands,
France, and Norway. The United Kingdom lagged these countries, as the market was
spooked by Mad Cow Disease and renewed IRA terrorist bombings, but it still had
a positive return of 2.7%. In May, the British government privatized the
railroad infrastructure company, Railtrack, and the company was included in the
MSCI EAFE Index in early June.

INVESTMENT INSTRUMENTS Invest primarily in equity securities of business
enterprises organized and domiciled outside of the
United States. Statistical methods will be employed to
replicate the Index by buying most of the relevant Index
securities.

One of the primary reasons for the positive climate for European equities
this period was widespread interest rate cuts. By March, Spain, France and
Norway had followed Germany's lead in reducing interest rates. In April, the
Bundesbank surprised many again with another rate cut, leading the way once more
for rate cuts in Spain, Holland, Denmark, Sweden, Austria and Belgium that same
month. In May, Spain and Sweden cut again, and in June, England, France, Spain
and Sweden each reduced short-term rates. These all helped stock markets
advance. The Bundesbank held Germany's rates steady for the last two months of
the period, pending review of future economic data.

Switzerland's blue chips also performed particularly well, following the
announcement of the merger between pharmaceutical giants Sandoz and Ciba Geigy.
This also led to a rally in pharmaceutical stocks around the world.

PACIFIC BASIN

The Pacific Basin overall was up 2.6% during the semi-annual period. Despite
tensions in the region between China and Taiwan, two of the Index's best
performing markets were in the Pacific Rim -- specifically, Malaysia and Hong
Kong. Both of these smaller markets were driven up by significant foreign
investment flows into the region. Singapore was the only EAFE market to have a
loss, falling 3.2%.

Japan's market broke out of a slump and rallied in the last two weeks in
March, sparked by evidence that an economic recovery had begun and that progress
on a housing loan bailout plan had been made. The market continued to rise in
April, fell in May with talk of a possible interest rate increase, and rose
again in June when the Bank of Japan allayed fears by stating that no monetary

3

policy changes were imminent. Combined with a continuing decline in the trade
surplus, the yen weakened in June and the Nikkei 225 rose to a new 1996 high.

LOOKING AHEAD

Going forward, we expect further interest rate cuts in Europe, as many of these
nations are behind the U.S. in the business cycle. This would be positive for
European equities. Similarly, Japan, which has been in a deep recession, has
been showing some signs of recovery. In light of the strong gains in the U.S.
market over the last eighteen months and the prospects for growth in foreign
economies, we would expect international markets to outperform in the next
twelve months.

Of course, as an index fund, designed to replicate as closely as possible
the broad diversification and total return of the MSCI EAFE Index with net
dividends, we neither evaluate short-term fluctuations in the Fund's performance
nor manage according to a given outlook for the equity markets or the economies
in general. Still, we will continue monitoring economic conditions and how they
affect the financial markets. The MSCI EAFE Index is a capitalization-weighted
index containing approximately 1,100 equity securities of companies located
outside the United States.
* * *

We value your support of the EAFE Equity Index Fund and look forward to
continuing to serve your investment needs in the years ahead.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE 1. -- ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A. ORGANIZATION
BT Advisor Funds ("the Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940 ("the Act"), as amended, as an open-end management investment company. The
Trust was organized on July 24, 1995, as a business trust under the laws of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The EAFE Equity Index Fund (the "Fund") offers
two classes of shares to investors, Institutional Class and Advisor Class shares
(the "Shares"). Both classes of shares have identical rights to earnings, assets
and voting privileges, except that each class has its own expenses directly
attributable to a particular class and exclusive voting rights with respect to
matters affecting a single class. The following shares commenced operations and
began offering shares of beneficial interest as follows:

<TABLE>

BENEFICIAL SHARE
CLASS OFFERING
- ----------------------------------------------
<S> <C>
Institutional Class Shares.... January 24, 1996
Advisor Class Shares.......... June 20, 1996
</TABLE>

Subsequent to the commencement of operations, the Fund began investing
substantially all of its investable assets in the EAFE Equity Index Portfolio
("Portfolio"). The Portfolio is an open-end management investment company
registered under the Act. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objectives by
investing all of its investable assets in the Portfolio. The value of such
investment in the Portfolio reflects the Fund's proportionate interest in the
net assets of the Portfolio. At June 30, 1996, EAFE Equity Index Fund's
investment was approximately 100% of the Portfolio.

The financial statements of the Portfolio, including the Schedules of Portfolio
Investments, are contained elsewhere in this report.

B. INVESTMENT INCOME
The Fund earns income, net of expenses, daily on its investment in the
Portfolio. All of the net investment income and realized and unrealized gains
and losses from the security transactions of the Portfolio are allocated pro
rata among the investors in the Portfolio at the time of such determination and
allocated to each class of shares based on the relative proportion of net assets
representative by such class.

C. ORGANIZATIONAL EXPENSES
Costs incurred by the Fund in connection with its organization and initial
registration are being amortized evenly over a five year period.

D. DIVIDENDS
It is the Fund's policy to declare and distribute dividends annually to
shareholders from net investment income. Dividends payable to shareholders are
recorded by the Fund on the ex-dividend date. Distributions of net realized
short-term and long-term capital gains, if any, will be made annually.

E. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
It is the Fund's policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue
Code. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

F. OTHER
The Trust accounts separately for the assets, liabilities, and operations of the
Fund and each of the classes. Expenses directly attributable to each class are
charged to that class, while expenses which are attributable to all of the
Trust's funds are allocated among them.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts in the financial statements.

NOTE 2. -- FEES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Fund has entered into an Administration and Service Agreement ("Agreement")
with Bankers Trust Company ("Bankers Trust"). Under such Agreement, Bankers
Trust provides administrative, custody, transfer agency and shareholder services
to the Fund in return for a fee computed daily and paid monthly at an annual
rate of each Class's average daily net assets. The following table provides
annual rates and aggregated fees for each class of shares for the period ended
June 30, 1996:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
AGGREGATED
CLASS ANNUAL RATE FEES
- --------------------------------- ----------- -----------
<S> <C> <C>
Institutional Class Shares....... 0.15 of 1% $ 15,481
Advisor Class Shares............. 0.30 of 1% 4
</TABLE>

The Trust has entered into a Distribution Agreement with Signature Broker-Dealer
Services, Inc. ("Signature"). Under the Distribution Agreement with the Trust,
Signature serves as the Trust's principal underwriter.

The Fund's two classes of shares impose a shareholder transaction fee paid when
investors buy, sell, exchange, or hold shares of the Fund. Institutional Class
Shares deducts a transaction fee of 0.50% from redemptions and exchanges out of
the Fund. Advisor Class Shares deducts a transaction fee of 0.25% from
purchases, redemptions and exchanges into and out of the Fund. These transaction
fees are paid directly to the Fund and are deducted automatically from the
amount invested, exchanged or redeemed (with the exception of reinvested
dividends or capital gain distributions).

Bankers Trust has voluntarily undertaken to waive and reimburse expenses of the
Fund, to the extent necessary, to limit all expenses as follows: Institutional
Class Shares to 0.05 of 1% of the average daily net assets of the Class,
excluding expenses of the Portfolio and 0.40 of 1% of the average daily net
assets of the Fund, including expenses of the Portfolio. Advisor Class Shares to
0.30 of 1% of the average daily net assets of the Fund, excluding expenses of
the Portfolio and 0.65 of 1% of the average daily net assets of the Fund,
including expenses of the Portfolio. For the period ended June 30, 1996,
Institutional Class and Advisor Class expenses have been reduced by $46,709 and
$47, respectively.

The Fund is subject to such limitations as may from time to time be imposed by
the Blue Sky laws of states in which the Fund sells its shares. Currently, the
most restrictive jurisdiction imposed expense limitation of 2.5% of the first
$30,000,000 of the average daily net assets, 2.0% of the next $70,000,000, and
1.5% of any excess over $100,000,000.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE 1 -- ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A. ORGANIZATION
EAFE Equity Index Portfolio (the "Portfolio") is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 ("the Act"), as amended, as an open-end management
investment company. The portfolio was organized as an unincorporated trust under
the laws of New York and commenced operations on January 24, 1996. The
Declaration of Trust permits the Board of Trustees (the "Trustees") to issue
beneficial interests in the Portfolio.

B. SECURITY VALUATION
The Portfolio's investments listed or traded on the National Stock Exchange or
other domestic or foreign exchanges are valued on its closing price on that
exchange prior to the time when assets are valued. In cases where securities are
traded on more than one exchange, the securities will be valued on the exchange
designated as the primary market. All other portfolio securities for which
over-the-counter market quotations are readily available including circumstances
under which it is determined by the Investment Manager that sale or bid prices
are not reflective of a security's market value, portfolio securities are valued
at their fair value as determined in good faith under procedures established by
and under the general supervision of the Trustees. Short-term obligations with
remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost. Other
short-term debt securities are valued on a mark-to-market basis until such time
as they reach a remaining maturity of 60 days, whereupon they will be valued at
amortized cost using their value on the 61st day. All other securities and other
assets are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith under
procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Trustees.

C. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INTEREST INCOME
Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividend income,
less foreign taxes withheld (if any), are recorded on the ex-dividend date or
upon receipt of ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign
securities. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes
amortization of premium and discount on investments. Realized gains and losses
from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis.

All of the net investment income and realized and unrealized gains and losses
from the security transactions of the Portfolio are allocated pro rata among the
investors in the Portfolio at the time of such determination.

D. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
The Portfolio may enter into repurchase agreements with financial institutions
deemed to be creditworthy by the Portfolio's Investment Advisers, subject to the
seller's agreement to repurchase such securities at a mutually agreed upon
price. Securities purchased subject to repurchase agreements are deposited with
the Portfolio's custodian, and pursuant to the terms of the repurchase agreement
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 Portfolio 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, the Portfolio maintain the right
to sell the underlying securities at market value and may claim any resulting
loss against the seller.

E. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS
The books and records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollars. All
assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are converted
into U.S. dollars at prevailing exchange rates. Purchases and sales of
investment securities, dividends and interest income, and certain expenses are
translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such
transactions. The Portfolio does not isolate the portion of the results of
operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from
the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such
fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain and loss
from securities.

F. FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS
The Portfolio may enter into forward foreign currency contracts for the purpose
of settling specific purchases or sales of securities denominated in a foreign
currency or with respect to the Porfolio's investment generally. The net U.S.
dollar value of foreign currency underlying all contractual commitments held by
the Portfolio and the resulting unrealized appreciation or depreciation are
determined using prevailing exchange rates. With respect to forward foreign
currency contracts, losses in excess of amounts recognized in the Statement of
Assets and Liabilities may arise due to changes in the value of the foreign
currency or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.

G. FUTURES CONTRACTS
The Portfolio may enter into financial futures contracts which are contracts to
buy a standard quantity of securities at a specified price on a future date. The
Portfolio is required to deposit either in cash or securities an amount equal to
a certain percentage of the contract amount. Subsequent payments are made or
received by the portfolio each day, dependent on the daily fluctuations in the
value of the underlying security, and are recorded for financial statemnet
purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the portfolio. The Portfolio's
investment in the financial futures contracts is designed to closely replicate
the benchmark index used by the Portfolio. Should the Portfolio's prices move
unexpectedly, the Portfolio may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the
financial futures contracts and may realize a loss.

Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the
board of trade or exchange on which they are traded.

H. OPTION CONTRACTS
Upon the purchase of a put option or a call option by the Portfolio, the premium
paid is recorded as an investment, the value of which is marked-to-market daily
to reflect the current market value. When a purchased option expires, the
Portfolios will realize a loss in the amount of the cost of the option. When the
Portfolio enters into a closing sale transaction, the Portfolio will realize a
gain or loss depending on whether the sale proceeds from the closing sale
transaction are greater or less than the cost of the option. When the Portfolio
exercises a put option, it realizes a gain or loss from the sale of the
underlying security and the proceeds from such sale will be decreased by the
premium originally paid. When the Portfolio exercises a call option, the cost of
the security which the Portfolio purchases upon exercise will be increased by
the premium originally paid.

I. ORGANIZATIONAL EXPENSES
Costs incurred by the Portfolio in connections with its organization and initial
registration are being amortized evenly over a five year period.

J. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
It is the Portfolio's policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

K. OTHER
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts in the financial statements.

NOTE 2 -- FEES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Portfolio has entered into an Administration and Service Agreement
("Agreement") with Bankers Trust Company ("Bankers Trust"). Under such
Agreement, Bankers Trust provides administrative, custody, transfer agency and
shareholder services to the Portfolio in return for a fee computed daily and
paid monthly at an annual rate of 0.10% of 1% of the Portfolio's average daily
net assets. For the period ended June 30, 1996, this fee aggregated $10,322.

The Portfolio has entered into an Advisory Agreement with Bankers Trust. Under
this Advisory Agreement, the Portfolio pays Bankers Trust an advisory fee
computed daily and paid monthly at an annual rate of 0.25 of 1% of the
Portfolio's average daily net assets. For the period ended June 30, 1996, this
fee aggregated $25,805.

Bankers Trust has voluntarily undertaken to waive and reimbursement expenses of
the Portfolio, to the extent necessary, to limit all expenses to 0.35 of 1% of
the average daily net assets of the Portfolio. For the period ended June 30,
1996, expenses of the Portfolio have been reduced $19,450.
Certain trustees and officers of the Portfolio are also directors, officers
and/or employees of Signature Broker-Dealer Services, Inc., the distributor of
the BT Advisor Funds. None of the trustees so affiliated received compensation
for services as trustees of the Portfolio. Similarly, none of the Portfolio's
officers received compensation from the Portfolio. Similarly, none of the
Porfolio's officers received compensation from the Portfolio.

NOTE 3 -- PURCHASE AND SALE OF INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investments, other
than short-term obligations, for the period ended June 30, 1996 were $25,651,778
and $668,010 respectively. Cost of investments for Federal income tax purposes,
at June 30, 1996 was approximately the cost of investments used for financial
statement purposes. The aggregate gross unrealized appreciation was $1,583,369
and the aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments was $538,520
as of June 30, 1996.

ITEM 27. INDEMNIFICATION.

Under Article XI, Section 2 of the Trust's Declaration of Trust, any past or
present Trustee or officer of the Trust (including persons who serve at the
Trust's request as directors, officers or trustees of another organization in
which the Trust has any interest as a shareholder, creditor or otherwise
[hereinafter referred to as a "Covered Person"]) is indemnified to the
fullest extent permitted by law against liability and all expenses reasonably
incurred by him in connection with any action, suit or proceeding to which he
may be a party or otherwise involved by reason of his being or having been a
Covered Person. This provision does not authorize indemnification when it is
determined, in the manner specified in the Declaration of Trust, that such
Covered Person has not acted in good faith in the reasonable belief that his
actions were in or not opposed to the best interests of the Trust. Moreover,
this provision does not authorize indemnification when it is determined, in
the manner specified in the Declaration of Trust, that such Covered Person
would otherwise be liable to the Trust or its shareholders by reason of
willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of his
duties. Expenses may be paid by the Trust in advance of the final disposition
of any action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by such
Covered Person to repay such expenses to the Trust in the event that it is
ultimately determined that indemnification of such expenses is not authorized
under the Declaration of Trust and either (i) the Covered Person provides
security for such undertaking, (ii) the Trust is insured against losses from
such advances or (iii) the disinterested Trustees or independent legal
counsel determines, in the manner specified in the Declaration of Trust, that
there is reason to believe the Covered Person will be found to be entitled to
indemnification.

Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), may be permitted to Trustees, officers and

<PAGE>

controlling persons of the Trust pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or
otherwise, the Trust has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Trust
of expenses incurred or paid by a Trustee, officer or controlling person of
the Trust in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such Trustee, officer or controlling person in connection with
the securities being registered, the Trust will, unless in the opinion of its
counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a
court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification
by it is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
