                        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               March 31, 2002
(1) General Information and Summary JWH Global Trust (the Trust), a Delaware business trust organized on November 12, 1996, was formed to engage in the speculative trading of futures contracts on currencies, interest rates, energy and agricultural products, metals and stock indices, spot and forward contracts on currencies and precious metals, and exchanges for physicals pursuant to the trading instructions of independent trading advisors. The Managing Owner of the Trust is CIS Investments, Inc. (CISI). The clearing broker is Cargill Investor Services, Inc. (Clearing Broker or CIS), the parent company of CISI. The broker for forward contracts is CIS Financial Services, Inc. (CISFS or Forward Currency Broker), an affiliate of CISI. The Clearing Broker and the Forwards Currency Broker will collectively be referred to as the Brokers. Units of beneficial ownership of the Trust commenced selling on April 3, 1997 and trading began on June 2, 1997. The initial amount offered for investment was $50,000,000. On September 26, 1997, the Trust registered an additional $155,000,000 for further investment and continued the offering. By March 31, 2002, a total of 1,144,768.25 units representing an investment for $120,658,199 of beneficial ownership interest had been sold in the combined offerings. In addition, during the offerings, the Managing Owner purchased a total of 8,602.73 units, representing a total investment of $885,058. See the JWH Global Trust prospectus for further details of the offering. The Trust will be terminated on December 31, 2026, if none of the following occur prior to that date: (1) beneficial owners holding more than 50% of the outstanding units notify the Managing Owner to dissolve the Trust as of a specific date; (2) disassociation of the Managing Owner with the Trust; (3) bankruptcy of the Trust; (4) a decrease in the Net Asset Value (NAV) to less than $2,500,000; (5) a decline in the NAV per unit to $50 or less; (6) dissolution of the Trust; or (7) any event that would make it unlawful for the existence of the Trust to be continued or require dissolution of the Trust.
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The accounting and reporting policies of the Trust conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and to general practices in the commodities industry. The following is a description of the more significant of those policies that the Trust follows in preparing its financial statements. Revenue Recognition Commodity futures contracts, forward contracts, physical commodities, and related options are recorded on the trade date. All such transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis and marked to market daily. Unrealized gains and losses on open contracts reflected in the statements of financial condition represent the difference between original contract amount and market value (as determined by exchange settlement prices for futures contracts and related options and cash dealer prices at a predetermined time for forward contracts, physical commodities, and their related options) as of the last business day of the year or as of the last date of the financial statements. The Trust earns interest on its assets on deposit at the Brokers at 100% of the 91-day Treasury bill rate for deposits denominated in US dollars, and at the rates agreed between the Trust and CIS and CISFS for deposits denominated in other currencies. Redemptions A beneficial owner may cause any or all of his or her units to be redeemed by the Trust effective as of the last trading day of any month of the Trust based on the NAV per unit on five days' written notice to the Managing Owner. Payment will be made within ten business days of the effective date of the redemption. Any redemption made during the first 11 months of investment is subject to a 3% redemption penalty. Any redemption made in the 12th month of investment or later will not be subject to any penalty. The Trust's Amended and Restated Declaration and Agreement of Trust contains a full description of redemption and distribution policies. Organizational and Offering Costs Initial organizational and offering costs advanced to the Trust are being amortized over the first 60 months of the Trust's operations, subject to a maximum monthly payment of 1/60 of 2% of the month-end net assets. Ongoing offering costs, subject to a ceiling of 0.5% of the Trust's average month-end net assets, are paid by the Trust and expensed as incurred. Commissions Commodity brokerage commissions are typically paid for each trade transacted and are referred to as "round-turn commissions." These commissions cover both the initial purchase (or sale) and the subsequent offsetting sale (or purchase) of a commodity futures contract. The Trust does not pay commodity brokerage commissions on a per-trade basis, but rather pays monthly flat-rate Brokerage Fees at the annual rate of 6.5% (or a monthly rate of approximately 0.542%) of the Trust's average month-end assets after reduction of the Management Fee. CIS receives these Brokerage Fees irrespective of the number of trades executed on the Trust's behalf. The amount paid to CIS is reduced by exchange fees paid by the Trust. Certain large investors are eligible for a "Special Brokerage Fee Rate" of 5% per year. As of March 31, 2002, there were no such eligible investors in the Trust. Foreign Currency Transactions Trading accounts in foreign currency denominations are susceptible to both movements in the underlying contract markets as well as fluctuation in currency rates. Translation of foreign currencies into US dollars for closed positions are translated at an average exchange rate for the year, while year-end balances are translated at the year-end currency rates. The impact of the translation is reflected in the statements of operations. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(3) Fees Management fees are accrued and paid monthly, incentive fees are accrued monthly and paid quarterly. Trading decisions for the period of these financial statements were made by John W. Henry & Company, Inc. (JWH) utilizing three of its trading programs, the JWH GlobalAnalytics(R)Family of Programs, the Financial and Metals Portfolio, and the G-7 Currency Portfolio. Under signed agreement, JWH received a monthly management fee of 1/12 of 2% of the month-end net assets after deduction of a portion of the Brokerage Fee at an annual rate of 1.25% of month-end Trust asset but before deduction of any management fees, redemptions, distributions, or incentive fee accrued or payable as of the relevant month end.
(4) Income Taxes No provision for Federal income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements as each beneficial owner is responsible for reporting income (loss) based on the pro rata share of the profits or losses of the Trust. Generally, for both Federal and state tax purposes, trusts, such as the JWH Global Trust, are treated as partnerships. The Trust is responsible for the Illinois State Partnership Information and Replacement Tax based on the operating results of the Trust. Such tax amounted to $0 for the quarters ended March 31, 2002 and March 31, 2001, and is included in operating expenses in the statement of operations.
(5) Financial Instruments with Off-balance Sheet Risk The Trust engages in the speculative trading of U.S. and foreign futures contracts, and forward contracts (collectively derivatives). These derivatives include both financial and non-financial contracts held as part of a diversified trading strategy. The Trust is exposed to both market risk, the risk arising from changes in the market value of the contracts; and credit risk, the risk of failure by another party to perform according to the terms of a contract. The purchase and sale of futures requires margin deposits with a Futures Commission Merchant (FCM). Additional deposits may be necessary for any loss on contract value. The Commodity Exchange Act (CE Act) requires an FCM to segregate all customer transactions and assets from the FCM's proprietary activities. A customer's cash and other property such as U.S. Treasury Bills, deposited with an FCM are considered commingled with all other customer funds subject to the FCM's segregation requirements. In the event of an FCM's insolvency, recovery may be limited to a pro rata share of segregated funds available. It is possible that the recovered amount could be less than the total of cash and other property deposited. The Trust has cash on deposit with an affiliate interbank market maker in connection with its trading of forward contracts. In the event of interbank market maker's insolvency, recovery of the Trust assets on deposit may be limited to account insurance or other protection afforded such deposits. In the normal course of business, the Trust does not require collateral from such interbank market maker. Because forward contracts are traded in unregulated markets between principals, the Trust also assumes a credit risk, the risk of loss from counter party non-performance. For derivatives, risks arise from changes in the market value of the contracts. Theoretically, the Trust is exposed to a market risk equal to the value of futures and forward contracts purchased and unlimited liability on such contracts sold short. Net trading results from derivatives for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, are reflected in the statement of operations and equal gains (losses) from trading less brokerage commissions. Such trading results reflect the net gain arising from the Trust's speculative trading of futures contracts, and forward contracts. The notional amounts of open contracts at March 31, 2002, as disclosed in the Schedule of Investments, do not represent the Trust's risk of loss due to market and credit risk, but rather represent the Trust's extent of involvement in derivatives at the date of the statement of financial condition.
(6) Financial Statement Preparation The interim financial statements are unaudited but reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. These adjustments consist primarily of normal recurring accruals. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of the Trust for the year ended December 31, 2001, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2002, as part of its Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the fiscal year.
(7) Financial Highlights The following financial highlights show the Partnership's financial performance for the period ended March 31, 2002. Total return is calculated as the change is a theoretical beneficial owner's investment over the entire period. Total return is calculated based on the aggregate return of the Partnership taken as a whole.
Total return (12.64)% Ratio to average net assets: Net loss (13.51)% Expenses: Expenses 2.36 Incentive fees 0.00 Total expenses 2.36%
The net investment income and operating expenses ratios are computed based upon the weighted average net assets for the Partnership for the period ended March 31, 2002. Ratios do not reflect income or expenses related to investment in other commodity pools.

Item 2.  Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of Financial  Condition  and
Results of Operation

Fiscal Quarter Ended March 31, 2002

The  Trust  recorded  a loss of  6,235,975  or  $14.11  per unit in the first
quarter  of  2002.  As of March  31,  the  Trust  has lost  2.48%  since  its
inception in June 1997.

All three months of the quarter were  unprofitable  for Trust  investors.  On
March 31, 2002,  JWH was managing 100% of the Trust's  assets.  Approximately
30% of the assets were allocated to each of the JWH  GlobalAnalytics(R)Family
of  Programs  and  the  G-7  Currency  Portfolio.  Approximately  40%  of the
Trust's assets were allocated to JWH's Financial and Metals Portfolio.

In January,  performance  was  positive in the  currency  and energy  sectors
while  interest  rate,  metal,  stock  index  and  commodity  markets  posted
losses.  The most  significant  gains came from the currency sector where the
Japanese  Yen  continued  to  lose  value.   This  was  beneficial  to  Trust
investors  because the short Yen position  was the largest in the  portfolio.
Trading in all other  currency  markets was negative.  The Enron news created
a "flight to  quality"  situation  which led to higher US and  European  bond
prices.  These news items and others  ceased the  selling  activity in global
bonds and caused  losses in the Trust's  interest  rate long  positions.  The
energy  sector  posted a very small gain as short  positions  in natural  gas
exceeded  losses taken in all other energy  markets.  Precious metals rallied
sharply for the first time in months.  Initially  this was  negative  for the
Trust.  However,  by  month  end,  a long  position  was  taken  and the loss
absorbed  earlier in the month was lessened.  Overall,  the Trust  recorded a
loss of $793,776 or $1.79 per unit in January.

During  February,  fluctuating  price  patterns  continued  which  led  to  a
difficult  month for the Trust.  The key element in the  Trust's  performance
was the  trend  reversals  in the  Japanese  financial  markets.  The  Nikkei
(stock index),  Japanese  government bonds and the Yen accounted for over one
half of the  losses in the  portfolio.  Losses in the  currency  sector  also
occurred  in the British  pound,  Swiss  franc and Euro.  As earlier  stated,
trading in Japanese  government  bonds was  negative as was trading in US and
Euro  denominated  bond  markets.  Performance  in the energy sector was also
unprofitable.  Short  positions  in  crude  oil,  natural  gas  and  gasoline
suffered as prices rose.  Gold prices  continued to rise,  which  allowed the
metal sector to be positive in February.

During  late  February,  CIS  Securities,  Inc.  replaced  CIS as JWH  Global
Trust's Lead Selling  Agent.  This change will not have a material  effect on
the business of the Trust.  The Trust  recorded a loss of $2,702,058 or $6.13
per Unit in February.

March was another  disappointing month.  Positive returns from the energy and
interest  rate sectors  were  overpowered  by losses in the currency  sector,
specifically  in the Yen where  Japanese  corporations  spurred a rally  when
they actively repatriated Yen for year-end accounting  purposes.  This proved
to be  detrimental  for the  Trust's  short  Yen  position.  The  balance  of
interest  rate  trading  amounted  to  additional   losses.  The  energy  and
interest rate sectors each posted gains.  Profits  accrued in short positions
in Euro  denominated  markets  outweighed  losses in Japanese  bond  markets.
Nearly all markets in the metals sector were  positive.  However,  gains were
small  due to small  position  sizes  and  small  price  changes.  The  Trust
recorded a loss of $2,740,141 or $6.19 per unit in March.

During the quarter there were 17,137.84  units sold to the Beneficial  Owners
for an  investment  of  $1,745,995.  Beneficial  Owners  redeemed  a total of
18,195.48  units during the quarter.  The Managing  Owner redeemed a total of
0 units during the quarter.  At the end of the quarter there were  436,951.05
units   outstanding  owned  by  the  Beneficial  Owners  and  5,754.50  units
outstanding owned by the Managing Owner.

During the fiscal  quarter  ending March 31, 2002,  the Trust had no material
credit exposure to a counter-party  which is a foreign commodity  exchange or
to any counter parties dealing in over the counter contracts.

Fiscal Quarter Ended March 31, 2001

The Trust  recorded  a gain of  $4,900,063  or  $11.68  per unit in the first
quarter  of  2001.  As of  March  31,  the  Trust  has  gained  26.27%  since
inception.

All three  months of the quarter  were  profitable  for Trust  investors.  On
March 31, 2001,  JWH was managing 100% of the Trust's  assets.  Approximately
30% of the assets were allocated to each of the JWH  GlobalAnalytics(R)Family
of Programs and the G-7  Portfolio.  Approximately  40% of the Trust's assets
were allocated to JWH's Financial and Metals Portfolio.

In early  January,  the  interest  rate and  currency  sectors  continued  to
accrue  profits  as they  had in the  fourth  quarter  of 2000.  However,  by
midmonth,   these  markets  began  to  consolidate  and  move  against  their
long-term  trends.  The  single  most  profitable  position  in  the  Trust's
portfolio  was short  Japanese  yen.  Long  positions  in the Euro and the US
dollar  against  the Yen  offset  losses in other  currency  markets.  In the
interest rate sector,  the Trust's long bond  positions in various  countries
around the world remained the  cornerstone of the portfolio.  Smaller profits
were produced in almost every  geographic area with European  markets leading
the way.  Crude  and  heating  oil  prices  bounced  about  in a  featureless
pattern.  The metal  sector  showed  signs of breaking  out of its  prolonged
down  trend as  silver,  copper  and  aluminum  rallied  sharply.  The  Trust
recorded a gain of $853,853 or $1.95 per unit in January.

During  February,  the Bank of Japan once again  adopted a policy of reducing
interest  rates as  Japan's  economic  recovery  stalled.  This  allowed  the
Trust's long  positions  in Japanese  bonds to greatly  appreciate  in value.
Smaller gains were made in long  positions in U.S.,  German,  Great  Britain,
and  Australian   interest   rates.   Trading  in  European   currencies  was
negative.  Both the Euro and Swiss franc traded in erratic  patterns for much
of the month,  which more than offset the gains made in the Yen.  OPEC agreed
to cut  output  by 1.5  million  barrels  a day in order to  support  prices.
However,  the slowing of global economies  counteracted this decrease leading
to an  unprofitable  trading  environment  for the  Trust.  By the end of the
month,  the Trust all but  exited  the energy  sector.  The Trust  recorded a
gain of $43,430 or $0.11 per unit in February.

In March,  the Trust  continued  its  positive  performance.  Despite a trend
interruption  late in the month,  trading  in the  interest  rate  sector was
positive  in March  with some  geographic  areas  dramatically  outperforming
others.  The Bank of Japan's  decision to  stimulate  Japan's  economy at all
costs  hastened  the decline of  Japanese  interest  rates which  allowed the
Trust's  long  Japanese  bond  positions  to be the  most  profitable  in the
portfolio.  Gloomy  growth  outlooks  for Europe and Great  Britain  directed
interest  rates  lower  which  was  profitable  for  the  Trust.  Conversely,
trading in U.S. interest rates was negative.  The currency sector,  which had
been up dramatically  since September,  continued its stellar  performance in
March.  The unyielding  strength of the US dollar versus the Japanese yen was
the cornerstone of the sector's  performance.  The Yen lost  approximately 8%
to the US dollar in March and approximately  17% since September.  Gains also
accrued in long US dollar  positions  against the Swiss franc and  Australian
dollar.  Trading in the US dollar versus the Euro was slightly  negative.  As
had been  the  case for  several  months,  position  sizes in the  commodity,
metal,  energy and stock index  sectors were quite small due to lack of price
trends.  The  Trust  recorded  a gain of  $4,002,780  or  $9.62  per  unit in
March.

During the quarter there were 13,100.23  units sold to the Beneficial  Owners
for an  investment  of  $1,594,086.  Beneficial  Owners  redeemed  a total of
30,535.95  units during the quarter.  The Managing  Owner redeemed a total of
949.41  units  during  the  quarter.  At the end of the  quarter  there  were
413,329.66  units  outstanding  owned by the  Beneficial  Owners and 5,754.50
units outstanding owned by the Managing Owner.

During the fiscal  quarter  ending March 31, 2001,  the Trust had no material
credit exposure to a counter-party  which is a foreign commodity  exchange or
to any counter parties dealing in over the counter contracts.
