                            WATERHOUSE DOW 30 FUND

        DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
        --------------------------------------------------------------

We are pleased to provide you with the annual report for the Waterhouse Dow 30
Fund (the "Fund") for the period March 30, 1998 (commencement of operations) to
October 31, 1998. During this period, the Dow Jones Industrial
Average(ServiceMark) ("DJIA"(ServiceMark)) was quite volatile, rising from 8,782
on March 30, 1998 to a record high of 9,338, then falling nearly 20% to 7,539,
and finally recovering strongly to 8,592 on October 31,1998. On a total return
basis, which includes reinvested dividends, the period return for the DJIA was
- -1.26%. Your Fund had a total return for the same period of -1.19%, after
expenses. Since the investment objective of the Fund is to match the performance
of the DJIA before Fund expenses, these results were right on target. We intend
to work diligently to provide to our shareholders not only the first but the
best mutual fund structured to closely emulate the performance of the DJIA.


                                    [CHART]

Note: As with all investments, past performance is no guarantee of future
      results. The return is based on a constant investment throughout the
      period, includes reinvestment of dividends and reflects a net return to
      the shareholders after all expenses, inclusive of fee waivers. Without
      these waivers, the Fund's total return would have been lower.

The price performance of each of the DJIA stocks during the period of 3/30/98
through 10/31/98 is shown in the chart below. There were a couple of changes
involving two of the components in the index during this period--Walt Disney
executed a three-for-one stock split and Travelers Group merged with Citicorp
and changed its name to Citigroup Inc.

 43.9%    IBM                                   -4.7%    International Paper
 36.8%    Wal-Mart Stores                       -6.2%    AlliedSignal
 21.1%    Eastman Kodak                         -7.0%    AT&T Corp.
 18.6%    Philip Morris Cos.                    -7.6%    General Motors
 16.1%    Aluminum Co. of America              -13.5%    Coca-Cola
 13.4%    Johnson & Johnson                    -14.7%    Minnesota Mining & Mfg.
 12.8%    McDonalds                            -16.4%    DuPont (E.I.)
  6.8%    Merck & Co.                          -18.2%    Caterpillar
  4.8%    Exxon Corp.                          -19.8%    Sears
  4.7%    United Technologies                  -22.2%    Citigroup
  4.1%    Procter & Gamble                     -22.6%    Union Carbide
  2.6%    General Electric                     -23.5%    Disney (Walt)
 -1.9%    Chevron                              -25.7%    Boeing Co.
 -2.9%    American Express                     -27.1%    Goodyear Tire
 -4.7%    Hewlett-Packard                      -28.8%    J.P. Morgan

Considering the global economic turmoil and market volatility, the U.S. stock
market performed relatively well over the most recent six-month period. The
economy has slowed only moderately and remains on track to post GDP growth of
roughly 2% or slightly higher for the remainder of the year. Inflation continues
to be well-behaved and is expected to stay below 3% for the near-term. As we
touched upon in our last report, the ultimate fallout from events in Asia and
other emerging markets remains unclear, creating uncertainty and bouts of
volatility in the marketplace.

Looking forward to the next six months, the market's direction will likely be
affected by corporate profits, inflationary trends, money investment flows and
global monetary concerns, including any indications of a change in interest rate
policy by the Federal Reserve. Although these are difficult times to project
what may happen in the near-term, the quality and underlying financial strength
of the companies comprising the DJIA are expected to provide a solid investment
foundation for long-term growth of our shareholders' investments in the Fund.

We welcome additional investments into the Fund, and provide a number of
attractive ways to invest or add to current positions. The minimum initial
investment is $1,000 and $100 for subsequent purchases. For Waterhouse IRA
accounts, there is no minimum or subsequent investment requirements. A periodic
investment plan is also available which requires a minimum investment of $100
monthly or $300 quarterly. Keep in mind, however, that periodic investing
neither guarantees a profit nor protects against a loss in a declining market.
As with all investments, past performance is no guarantee of future results. You
may contact Waterhouse Securities' mutual funds service department at
800-457-6516 or your local branch office for more information.

Sincerely,

/s/ Lawrence M. Waterhouse

                            WATERHOUSE DOW 30 FUND

              NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- OCTOBER 31, 1998

         NOTE 1 -- ORGANIZATION

         Waterhouse Investors Family of Funds, Inc. (the "Company") was
         organized as a Maryland corporation on August 16, 1995. On December 18,
         1997, Waterhouse Investors Cash Management Fund, Inc. changed its name
         to Waterhouse Investors Family of Funds, Inc. The Company is registered
         as an open-end management investment company with the Securities and
         Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
         amended (the "Act"), and the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The
         Company currently has four investment portfolios: the Waterhouse Dow 30
         Fund (the "Fund") (formerly named the "Waterhouse Investors Dow Jones
         Industrial Averagesm Index Fund"), the Money Market Portfolio, the U.S.
         Government Portfolio and the Municipal Portfolio (collectively, the
         "Portfolios"). The assets of each Portfolio are segregated and
         accounted for separately. The investment objective of the Fund is to
         seek to track the total return of the Dow Jones Industrial
         Average(ServiceMark) before Fund expenses. The Fund commenced
         operations on March 31, 1998. The Fund changed its name on July 22,
         1998. These financial statements relate to the Fund, a non-diversified
         portfolio.

         NOTE 2 -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         The following is a summary of the Fund's significant accounting
         policies:

         SHARE VALUATION -- The net asset value per share of the Fund is
         calculated daily by dividing the total value of the Fund's assets, less
         liabilities, by the number of shares outstanding. The offering price
         and redemption price per share are equal to the net asset value per
         share.

         SECURITIES VALUATION -- The Fund's portfolio securities are valued as
         of the close of business of the regular session of the New York Stock
         Exchange (currently 4:00 p.m., Eastern time). Securities which are
         traded over-the-counter are valued at the last sales price, if
         available, otherwise, at the last quoted bid price. Securities traded
         on a national stock exchange are valued based upon the closing price on
         the principal exchange where the security is traded. Securities
         maturing within 60 days are valued at amortized cost, which
         approximates market value.

         REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements
         with financial institutions, deemed to be creditworthy by the Fund's
         Investment Manager, subject to the seller's agreement to repurchase and
         the Fund's agreement to resell such securities at a mutually agreed
         upon price. Securities purchased subject to repurchase agreements are
         deposited with the Fund'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 Fund 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 Fund maintains the right to
         sell the underlying securities at market value and may claim any
         resulting loss against the seller.

         INVESTMENT INCOME -- Interest income is accrued as earned. Dividend
         income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Under the terms of the
         custody agreement, the Fund receives net earnings credits based on
         available cash balances left on deposit. Income earned under this
         arrangement is included in interest income.

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                              11

<PAGE>

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Dividends arising from net investment
         income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Net realized
         short-term capital gains, if any, may be distributed during the year
         and net realized long-term capital gains, if any, are distributed at
         least once each year. Income distributions and capital gain
         distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations.

         SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS -- Securities transactions are accounted for on
         the trade date. Realized gain and loss from securities transactions are
         recorded on a specific identification basis.

         EXPENSES -- Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to
         the Fund's operations. Expenses which are applicable to the Fund and
         the other Portfolios of the Company are allocated on a pro rata basis.

         USE OF ESTIMATES -- The Fund's financial statements are prepared in
         accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which may
         require the use of management estimates and assumptions. Actual results
         could differ from these estimates.

         FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- It is the Fund's policy to comply with the
         special provisions of the Internal Revenue Code available to regulated
         investment companies. As provided therein, in any fiscal year in which
         the Fund so qualifies, and distributes at least 90% of its taxable net
         income, the Fund (not the shareholders) will be relieved of federal
         income tax on the income distributed. Accordingly, no provision for
         income taxes has been made.

         In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to regulated
         investment companies, it is also the Fund's intention to declare as
         dividends in each calendar year at least 98% of its net investment
         income (earned during the calendar year) and 98% of its net realized
         capital gains (earned during the twelve months ended October 31) plus
         undistributed amounts from prior years.

         NOTE 3 -- INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS
                   WITH AFFILIATES OF THE INVESTMENT MANAGER

         Under the terms of an Investment Management Agreement with Waterhouse
         Asset Management, Inc. (the "Investment Manager"), an indirect wholly
         owned subsidiary of The Toronto-Dominion Bank, for the investment
         management services furnished to the Fund, the Fund pays the Investment
         Manager an annual investment management fee, equal to .20 of 1% of the
         average daily net assets of the Fund. The Investment Manager intends to
         limit the total operating expenses of the Fund to .25 of 1% of its
         average daily net assets through March 31, 1999. Accordingly, for the
         period ended October 31, 1998 the Investment Manager voluntarily waived
         its entire investment management fee of $33,188 and reimbursed the Fund
         $14,245 for other operating expenses.

         Waterhouse Securities, Inc. ("Waterhouse Securities"), an affiliate of
         the Investment Manager, has been retained under an Administration
         Agreement to perform certain administrative services for the Fund. For
         the administrative services rendered to the Fund, the Investment
         Manager (not the Fund) pays Waterhouse Securities a monthly fee at an
         annual rate of .10 of 1% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

         Waterhouse Securities has been retained under a Shareholder Services
         Agreement to perform certain shareholder services necessary for the
         operation of the Fund. The shareholder service plan adopted by the Fund
         provides that the Fund pay Waterhouse Securities, a monthly fee at an
         annual rate of up to .25 of 1% of average daily net assets. For the
         period ended October 31, 1998, Waterhouse Securities voluntarily waived
         $36,900 of its shareholder servicing fee for the Fund.

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         The Fund has entered into a Transfer Agency and Dividend Disbursing
         Agency Agreement with National Investor Services Corp. (the "Transfer
         Agent"), an affiliate of the Investment Manager, to perform transfer
         and dividend disbursing agency-related services. For such services, the
         Fund pays the Transfer Agent a monthly fee at an annual rate of .05 of
         1% of average daily net assets. For the period ended October 31, 1998,
         the Transfer Agent voluntarily waived $8,297 of its transfer agent fee
         for the Fund.

         Each Director who is not an "interested person" ("disinterested
         Director") as defined in the Act receives from the Company a base
         annual retainer of $12,000, payable quarterly. Each disinterested
         Director who serves on the Board of Directors of the "Fund Complex"
         (which includes the Company and National Investors Cash Management
         Fund, Inc.) receives a supplemental annual retainer of $5,000, payable
         quarterly. Additionally, each disinterested Director of the Company
         receives from the Company a fee of $2,000 for each meeting attended. In
         the event that meetings of the Fund Complex are held on the same day or
         concurrently, such meeting is considered a single meeting and the
         meeting fee is allocated between the Funds in the Fund Complex.

         Waterhouse Securities absorbed all organizational expenses of the Fund.

         The Fund placed all of its portfolio transactions with Waterhouse
         Securities. There were no commissions paid to Waterhouse Securities for
         the period ended October 31, 1998.

         NOTE 4 -- INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

         Purchases and proceeds from sales of investment securities, other than
         short-term investments, amounted to $63,719,798 and $1,262,827
         respectively, for the period ended October 31, 1998.

         At October 31, 1998, net unrealized depreciation for Federal income tax
         purposes aggregated $165,717, consisting of $3,699,981 gross unrealized
         appreciation and $3,865,698 gross unrealized depreciation. At October
         31, 1998, the cost of investments for Federal income tax purposes was
         substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes.

         NOTE 5 -- FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)

         As requested by Federal regulations, shareholders will receive
         notification of their portion of the Fund's taxable ordinary dividends
         and capital gains distributions paid, (if any), for the 1998 calendar
         year early in 1999.

         including the schedule of investments, of the Waterhouse Dow 30 Fund
         (one of the portfolios constituting Waterhouse Investors Family of
         Funds, Inc.) as of October 31, 1998, and the related statements of
         operations and changes in net assets and financial highlights for the
         period from March 31, 1998 (commencement of operations) to October 31,
         1998. These financial statements and financial highlights are the
         responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to
         express an opinion on these financial statements and financial
         highlights based on our audit.

         We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
         standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
         to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
         and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
         includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
         and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights.
         Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October
         31, 1998, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit
         also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
         estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
         financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a
         reasonable basis for our opinion.

         In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights
         referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
         financial position of the Waterhouse Dow 30 Fund at October 31, 1998,
         and the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and
         the financial highlights for the period from March 31, 1998 to October
         31, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
