EAFE EQUITY INDEX FUND

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

We are pleased to present you with this annual report for the EAFE(R)(1) Equity
Index Fund (the "Fund"), providing a detailed review of the market, the
Portfolio, and our outlook. Included are a complete financial summary of the
Fund's operations and a listing of the Portfolio's holdings.(2)

MARKET ACTIVITY
Overall, 15 of the 20 EAFE markets posted gains for the annual period ended
December 31, 1998, and five had double-digit returns. Most of the advance of the
MSCI EAFE Index3 took place in the fourth quarter, and, with the exception of
three months out of the year, equities added to performance; currencies overall
did not. Other than August and September, Europe rose each month. The Pacific
Basin rose in January and February and then declined through the middle two
quarters of the year, only to regain investors' confidence with comparatively
strong returns in the fourth quarter.

EUROPE
Regionally, Europe rose 28.5% in U.S. dollar terms during the annual period, as
new record highs were recorded in most European markets. Markets responded to:

o   A FAVORABLE LOW INTEREST RATE/LOW INFLATION ENVIRONMENT --Virtually
    throughout the year, European governments cut interest rates, including
    Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, and the
    United Kingdom. Such concerted effort on the part of the individual central
    banks raised optimism that the conversion to the Euro would go off
    seamlessly. Economic growth was solid, and inflation continued to edge
    lower.
o   CONTINUED EUROPEAN MONETARY UNION ENTHUSIASM --On May 2nd, the members of
    the EMU were announced. The Euro euphoria, i.e. anticipation of the single
    currency's introduction, which buttressed the region's markets through most
    of the year also contributed to the overall buoyant end to 1998.
o   BETTER THAN EXPECTED EARNINGS AND SIGNIFICANT MERGER AND ACQUISITION
    ACTIVITY --For example, Finland was the top-performing market in both April
    and July, rising on better than expected earnings for Nokia, the global
    telecommunications firm, which accounts for more than half of MSCI Finland.
    Belgium was the top performer in June as electricity supplier, Electrabel,
    formed a trading joint venture with local Scandinavian partners. Italy did
    well in July on an improved outlook for telecommunications stocks and on
    rumors of possible bank mergers. Switzerland gained that same month on
    expectations of robust drug company earnings. Norway advanced in October,
    led by Norsk Hydro, which rose partly in response to a rise in crude oil
    prices. Sweden was the top performer in November, advancing on renewed
    merger rumors in the drug sector. In Germany, DaimlerChrysler began trading
    as one share in November, deleting Chrysler from U.S. indices, but gaining
    weighting in international indices.

In August, all of the European countries declined, as a combination of political
turmoil in Russia and continued economic distress in Asia contributed to a
global stock market correction. This lasted through September, when the factors
described above, along with a cut in interest rates by the U.S. Federal Reserve
Board, prompted the European markets to advance once again.

PACIFIC BASIN
The Pacific Basin rose 2.4% in U.S. dollar terms during the annual period.
Australia reached a new, all-time record high in April, as investors anticipated
an interest rate cut there. New Zealand was one of the top performers in July,
as interest rates fell to seven month lows and bond yields dropped to more than
four year lows.

o   HONG KONG, MALAYSIA, AND SINGAPORE RODE A PARTICULARLY BUMPY ROLLER COASTER.
    --Through the first half of the year, currency concerns, high local interest
    rates, political turmoil in Indonesia, balance sheet deficits, and concerns
    about a possible U.S. interest rate rise that could further hurt regional
    economic growth all led to significant equity market declines. Although all
    of the region's markets fell in August, Hong Kong actually fell the least,
    placing it as the top performing market that month. Prospects for a rebound
    in Asia's emerging economies grew gloomier, however, prompting Malaysia's
    Prime Minister to tighten his grip on that nation's economy. It
    worked--temporarily. Rising on domestic fund stock buying in response to
    interest rate declines, Malaysia was the top performing market in September.
    Hong Kong and Singapore also rallied in September, the former gaining after
    it instituted policies to strengthen its defense of its dollar and the
    latter after banks cut their prime lending rates, thereby relieving
    corporations' debt burdens. Still, capital controls imposed on September 1st
    by the Malaysian Central Bank resulted in the September 30th removal of
    Malaysia from the MSCI EAFE Index.

Hong Kong and Singapore continued to rise through the fourth quarter of 1998, as
investors' confidence in the Southwest Pacific region returned after the U.S.
cut interest rates, the Japanese yen appreciated, and a major U.S. brokerage
firm increased its allocation to the region.

o   THE JAPANESE EQUITY MARKET PUT IN A DISMAL YEAR, AS THE NATION SHOWED NO
    SIGN OF BREAKING OUT OF ITS SLUMP IN A MEANINGFUL WAY. --Japanese equities
    initially rose during the first quarter, as the ruling political party
    announced that its fiscal stimulus package was implemented in February, a
    month earlier than expected. However, the market closed the quarter down,
    with investors waiting for details of the government's proposed $124 billion
    economic stimulus package. Once released, stocks fell even further, as the
    package included no permanent tax cuts. The economy continued to weaken, as
    unemployment hit postwar record highs, concerns about Japanese companies'
    earnings continued, and the U.S. dollar weakened against the yen, falling to
    its lowest levels in seven years. Bolstered by promises of tax reform and
    expectations that the new government elected in July would take stronger
    steps to stimulate the economy and resolve the banks' bad loan problems,
    Japanese stocks rose in June and July.

However, the new government disappointed early. Japanese stocks fell in August,
and the market reached a twelve year low in September. With the yen rallying in
October and the government both proposing plans to recapitalize the banks and
also unveiling a package of tax cuts and public spending projects, the market
rose in November, only to be the worst performing market once again in local
terms in December. The Bank of Japan publicly stated that they saw no change in
the overall economy despite "bright signs" in some areas.

INVESTMENT REVIEW
MANAGER OUTLOOK
We remain positive about the European markets, with a few potential concerns. We
will, for instance, watch developments in Germany and Italy in 1999 to see
whether weakness in the industrial sectors in these nations spreads. Also, while
we expect growth in the Euro-zone to decelerate only a little, to about 2.25% in
1999, the new European Central Bank is likely to conclude that the downside
risks have increased. Still, against a backdrop of an economy operating well
below capacity, favorable inflation prospects, and a recently somewhat stronger
currency, there is hope for further interest rate cuts in Europe. In this
context, and given the generally upbeat assessments of Euroland's longer-term
prospects under the single currency, equity markets there are likely to perform
strongly. In Asia, investors are gradually edging back into the equity markets,
but the ongoing malaise in Japan will likely continue to hinder those markets.

As an index fund, designed to replicate as closely as possible, before expenses,
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.

We appreciate your ongoing support of the EAFE Equity Index Fund and look
forward to serving your investment needs for many years ahead.

EAFE EQUITY INDEX FUND 

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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") is one of
the funds offered to investors by the Trust.

The EAFE Equity Index Fund offered two classes of shares to investors:
Institutional Class and Advisor Class shares (the "Classes"). Both Classes of
shares have identical rights to earnings, assets and voting privileges, except
that each class has its own expenses and exclusive voting rights with respect to
matters affecting a single class. The Institutional and Advisor shares commenced
operations and began offering shares of beneficial interest on January 24, 1996
and June 21, 1996, respectively. Effective July 10, 1998 the Fund's Advisor
Class was closed and all Advisor Class shares were exchanged into the Fund's
Institutional Class based on a 1 to 1.0382 exchange ratio. As a result of the
exchange, 438,740 shares of the Institutional Class representing $5,133,257 in
net assets were issued at the net asset value of $11.70 per share.

The EAFE Equity Index Portfolio (the "Portfolio") is an open-end management
investment company registered under the Act. The Fund seeks to achieve its
investment objective by investing all of its investable assets in the Portfolio.
At December 31, 1998, the Fund's proportionate interest in the Portfolio's net
assets was approximately 100%.

The financial statements of the Portfolio, including the Statement of Net
Assets, are contained elsewhere in this report, and should be read in
conjunction with the Fund's financial statement.

B. VALUATION
Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is discussed in Note 1B of the
Portfolio's Notes to Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in this
report.

C. 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 security transactions of the Portfolio are allocated pro rata
among the investors in the Portfolio at the time of such determination.

D. ORGANIZATION EXPENSES
Costs incurred by the fund in connection with its organization and initial
registration are being amortized evenly over a five-year period.

E. DISTRIBUTIONS 
It is the Fund's policy to declare and distribute dividends annually to
shareholders from net investment income. Dividends and distributions 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, earned by the Fund
are also made annually to the extent they are not offset by any capital loss
carryforwards.

F. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
It is the Fund's policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue
Code applicable to regulated investment companies and distribute all of its
taxable income to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is
required. The Fund may periodically make reclassifications among certain of its
capital accounts as a result of the differences in the characterization and
allocation of certain income and capital gain distributions determined annually
in accordance with federal tax regulations, which may differ from generally
accepted accounting principles. The Fund has a deferred post October currency
loss of $16,745 and post October capital loss of $502,454 to next year.

G. OTHER
The Trust accounts separately for the assets, liabilities and operations of the
Fund and its Classes. Expenses directly attributable to each Class are charged
to that Class, while expenses which are attributable to the Trust's Funds are
allocated among them. Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date
basis.

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. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.

NOTE 2--FEES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Fund has entered into an Administration and Services Agreement with Bankers
Trust Company ("Bankers Trust"). Under this Administration and Services
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 .15% and .30% of average daily net assets for the
Institutional Class and Advisor Class, respectively.

Bankers Trust has voluntarily undertaken to waive its fees and reimburse
expenses of each Class of Shares, to the extent necessary, to limit all expenses
as follows: EAFE Equity Index Fund Institutional Class of Shares to .05% of the
average daily net assets of the Class, excluding expenses of the Portfolio and
 .40% of the average daily net assets of the Class, including expenses of the
Portfolio; EAFE Equity Index Advisor Class of shares to .30% of the average
daily net assets of the Class, excluding expenses of the Portfolio, and .65% of
the average daily net assets of the Class, including expenses of the Portfolio.

ICC Distributors, Inc., a member of the Forum Group of Companies, provides
distribution services to the Fund. For the year ended December 31, 1998, there
were no reimbursable expenses incurred under this agreement.

The EAFE Equity Index Fund's two Classes of shares impose a shareholder
transaction fee paid when investors buy, sell or exchange shares of the Fund.
Institutional Class Shares deducted a transaction fee of 0.25% on all redemption
and exchange redemption transactions. Advisor Class Shares deducted a
transaction fee of 0.50% on all purchase, redemption and exchange transactions.
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).

NOTE 4--RISKS OF INVESTING IN FOREIGN SECURITIES
The Portfolio invests in foreign securities. Investing in foreign companies and
foreign governments involves special risks and considerations not typically
associated with investing in securities of U.S. companies and the U.S.
government. These risks include devaluation of currencies and future adverse
political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of many foreign
companies and foreign governments and their markets may be less liquid and their
prices more volatile than those of securities of comparable U.S. companies and
the U.S. government. This is particularly true with respect to emerging markets
in developing countries.

EAFE EQUITY INDEX FUND 

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS 
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To the Trustees of BT Advisor Funds and Shareholders of EAFE Equity
Index Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities 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 EAFE Equity Index Fund (one of the Funds comprising BT Advisor Funds,
hereafter referred to as the "Fund") at December 31, 1998, and the results of
its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for
each of the fiscal periods presented, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. These financial statements and financial highlights
(hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the
Fund's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements 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 audits, which included
confirmation of securities at December 31, 1998 by correspondence with the
transfer agent, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

EAFE EQUITY INDEX PORTFOLIO

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1--ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. ORGANIZATION
The 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 on January 24, 1996,
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 shares of beneficial interest in the Portfolio.

B. SECURITY VALUATION
The Portfolio's investments are valued each business day by an independent
pricing service approved by the Trustees. Securities traded on National
Exchanges or foreign exchanges are valued based on the closing price of the
security on that exchange prior to the time when the Portfolio's assets are
valued. Short-term obligations with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are
valued at amortized cost. 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, is 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 and foreign currency transactions of the Portfolio are
allocated pro rata among the investors in the Portfolio at the time of such
determination.

D. 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
to U.S. dollars at prevailing exchange rates. Purchases and sales of investment
securities, dividend and interest income, and certain expenses are translated at
the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.

E. 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 Portfolio's investments. 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
Net Assets may arise due to changes in the value of the foreign currency or if
the counterparty does not perform under the contract.

F. OPTION CONTRACTS
The Portfolio may enter into option contracts. Upon the purchase of a put option
or a call option by a 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 Portfolio 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.

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. Variation margin 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 statement
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.

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

H. ORGANIZATION EXPENSES
Costs incurred by the Portfolio in connection with its organization and initial
registration are being amortized evenly over a five-year period.

I. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The Portfolio is considered a partnership under the Internal Revenue Code.
Therefore no federal income tax is required.

J. 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. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.

NOTE 2--FEES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Portfolio has entered into an Administration and Services Agreement with
Bankers Trust Company ("Bankers Trust"). Under this Administration and Services
Agreement, Bankers Trust provides administrative, custody and shareholder
services to the Portfolio in return for a fee computed daily and paid monthly at
an annual rate of .10% of the average daily net assets. At December 31, 1998,
administrative and service fees payable to Bankers Trust amounted to $2,637.

EAFE EQUITY INDEX PORTFOLIO

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONCLUDED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 .25% of the average daily
net assets. At December 31, 1998, advisory fees payable to Bankers Trust
amounted to $6,594.

Bankers Trust has voluntarily undertaken to waive its fees and reimburse
expenses of the Portfolio, to the extent necessary, to limit all expenses to
 .35% of the average daily net assets of the Portfolio.

The EAFE Equity Index Portfolio may invest in the BT Institutional Cash
Management Fund (the "Fund"), an open-end management investment company managed
by Bankers Trust Company (the "Company"). The Fund is offered as a cash
management option to the equity fund and other accounts managed by the Company.
Distributions from the Fund to the Portfolio as of December 31, 1998 amounted to
$46,772 and are included in dividend income.

The EAFE Equity Index Portfolio is a participant with other affiliated entities
in a revolving credit facility and a discretionary demand line of credit
facility (collectively the "credit facilities") in the amounts of $50,000,000
and $100,000,000, respectively, which expire March 15, 1999. A commitment fee of
 .07% per annum on the average daily amount of the available commitment is
payable on a quarterly basis and apportioned equally among all participants.
Amounts borrowed under the credit facilities will bear interest at a rate per
annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus .45%. No amounts were drawn down or
outstanding under the credit facilities as of and for the year ended December
31, 1998.

NOTE 3--PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investments, other
than short-term obligations, for the year ended December 31, 1998 were
$4,304,624 and $6,348,691, respectively. For federal income tax purposes, the
tax basis of investments held at December 31, 1998 was $33,451,180. The
aggregate gross unrealized appreciation was $13,835,522, and the aggregate gross
unrealized depreciation for all investments was $4,605,403 as of December 31,
1998.

NOTE 4--FUTURES CONTRACTS
A summary of obligations under these financial instruments at December 31, 1998

NOTE 7--FOREIGN SECURITIES
The Portfolio invests in foreign securities. Investing in foreign companies and
foreign governments involves special risks and considerations not typically
associated with investing in securities of U.S. companies and the U.S.
government. These risks include devaluation of currencies and future adverse
political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of many foreign
companies and foreign governments and their markets may be less liquid and their
prices more volatile than those of securities of comparable U.S. companies and
the U.S. government. This is particularly true with respect to emerging markets
in developing countries.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To the Trustees of BT Investment Portfolios and Holders of Beneficial Interest
of EAFE Equity Index Portfolio:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement 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
EAFE Equity Index Portfolio (one of the Portfolios comprising BT Investment
Portfolios, hereafter referred to as the "Portfolio") at December 31, 1998, and
the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial
highlights for each of the fiscal periods presented, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements and
financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the Portfolio's management; our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements 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
audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 1998 by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for
the opinion expressed above.
