BBH CORE SELECT

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE
October 31, 2010

BBH Core Select (the “Fund” or “Core Select”) rose by 17.11%, net of fees, during its fiscal year ending October 31, 2010. During the same twelve month period, the S&P 500 Index1 (“S&P 500”) rose by 16.52%. For the five years ending October 31, 2010, Core Select has returned 6.83% per year while the S&P 500 has increased by 1.73% per year.

Performance data quoted represents no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Mutual fund performance changes over time and current performance may be lower or higher than what is stated. For current to the most recent month end performance and after tax returns, contact the Fund at 1-800-625-5759.

Core Select seeks to provide shareholders with long-term growth of capital on an after-tax basis. Fundamental analysis and a discount to intrinsic value2 framework provide the basis for each Core Select investment. We look for companies that offer all, or most, of the following business and financial attributes: (i) essential products and services; (ii) loyal customers; (iii) leadership in an attractive market niche or industry; (iv) sustainable competitive advantages; (v) high returns on invested capital; and (vi) strong free cash flow. We believe businesses possessing these traits are favorably positioned to protect and grow capital through varying economic and market environments. In addition, we seek to invest in companies whose managers have high levels of integrity, are excellent operators, and are good capital allocators. Pursuant to our goal of not losing money on any single investment, we explicitly identify key risks outside of company management’s control so that we can fully consider the range of potential outcomes for each business. When a company meets our investment criteria and desired risk profile, we will consider establishing a position if its market price reaches 75% or less of our intrinsic value estimate. We maintain a buy-and-own approach, typically owning a company’s shares for 3 – 5 years or longer, and we will usually sell an investment as it appreciates to a level near our estimate of intrinsic value.

Fiscal year 2010 was a volatile period for equities, reflecting the ebb and flow of investor concerns related to the sustainability of the global economic recovery, sovereign debt3 levels, inflation, deflation and ongoing questions about the ability of central bankers to prudently intervene in the markets. With our long term investment horizon and valuation-based approach, we actually welcome such volatility as it can provide us the opportunity to purchase shares in outstanding businesses at what we believe are attractive prices during times of unease and to reduce or sell certain holdings when the prevailing sentiment is ebullient.


1      The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged capitalization-weighted index of 500 stocks designed to measure performance of the broad domestic economy through changes in the aggregate market value of 500 stocks representing all major industries. Investments cannot be made in an index.
2      We prepare proprietary financial models for each Core Select company in order to determine an estimate of intrinsic value. Discounted cash flow analysis is the primary quantitative model used in our research process. We supplement our discounted cash flow work with other quantitative analyses, such as economic profit models, internal rate of return models, and free cash flow multiples.

BBH CORE SELECT

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE (continued)
October 31, 2010

The Fund’s largest positive contributor in 2010 was the software provider Intuit, Inc. (“Intuit”). We made our initial investment in Intuit in 2007 and exited earlier this year as the stock approached our estimate of intrinsic value. Our investment in Intuit is a good example of the Core Select investment criteria and process at work. Intuit provides essential products and services, with strong market positions in three core businesses — small business software (QuickBooks), tax software (TurboTax) and personal finance (Quicken/Mint). Intuit’s businesses benefit from high levels of customer loyalty, continual innovation and attractive rates of growth. Intuit has a conservative balance sheet and in our opinion is run by a superb management team. The non-discretionary nature of bookkeeping, tax filing, payroll and payment processing — all of which are enabled by key Intuit offerings — helped sustain the business through a difficult economic period.

In our view, Intuit’s robust share price performance throughout 2009 and 2010 was attributable not only to economic recovery and rising markets but also a progressively greater recognition among investors of Intuit’s combination of recurring revenues, organic growth, solid margins and ample free cash flows. We do not define ourselves as being purely contrarian investors, but based on past experience and our insistence on a margin of safety4, we often find that the appropriate time to reduce or sell our successful investments is when our conviction level has come to be shared by the broader market.

Other large positive contributors to the Fund’s fiscal year 2010 performance included Berkshire Hathaway, Inc., Comcast Corp. and Waste Management, Inc. These three formidable businesses remain among our largest holdings today, and in each case, they are trading at meaningful discounts to our estimates of intrinsic value. Another key contributor to the Fund’s results was Liberty Global, Inc., whose shares rose by a portfolio leading 76% during the year.

The Fund’s largest negative contributors during fiscal 2010 were Southwestern Energy Co. (“Southwestern”) and Vulcan Materials Co. (“Vulcan”). Southwestern, which we first purchased for the Fund earlier this year, is a leading independent natural gas exploration and production company with an attractive asset base, low costs, a prudent capital structure and a return focused management team. While the natural gas sector is currently out of favor, we believe the longer-term supply and demand picture is favorable. This is based on our views that the recent shale gas drilling frenzy is beginning to encounter some structural and financial challenges, while the actual commodity should enjoy long-term demand support given its cleaner carbon profile relative to coal and distillates. We view Southwestern as a disciplined operator with the capacity to grow production on an economic basis over many years. Moreover, we view Southwestern’s midstream pipeline business as an attractive embedded asset that may not be fully recognized in the valuation. We continue to see significant long term upside in Southwestern’s shares.


4      We believe that a margin of safety exists when a business meets our business, financial, and management criteria and there is a discount between the market price of its shares and our estimate of intrinsic value based on an analysis of both tangible and intangible factors.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE (continued)
October 31, 2010

Vulcan, on the other hand, is a business for which our original investment thesis was substantially compromised by industry developments this year. As such, we chose to exit our position at a loss. We originally purchased Vulcan in 2008, amidst declining volumes in the crushed rock aggregates industry. A key part of our investment thesis was that Vulcan and its competitors had significant pricing power due to the unique nature of their asset base and the difficulty and cost of transporting rock. Vulcan’s operating results reflected an ability to successfully raise prices each year over four consecutive decades. Earlier this year, however, we began to see increased levels of industry pricing pressure despite stabilizing tonnage volumes in many areas. With a key underpinning of our thesis having been compromised by these shifts in the industry, we could no longer be assured that a margin of safety existed in the valuation and in the business itself.

We approach equity investing from the perspective of owning fractional shares of strong businesses for relatively long periods of time. It is our belief that this long-term frame of reference on companies and their full lifecycle cash generation prospects enables better investment decision making insofar as it emphasizes key value drivers rather than the vagaries of near-term crosswinds in industries and markets. Ultimately, we believe this perspective enables stronger investment results and risk control over market cycles. Turnover in the portfolio during fiscal year 2010 was 19.36%, which is well below most actively managed equity portfolios (source: Morningstar). This level of turnover implies an average holding period of five years for each business.

Over the course of fiscal 2010, we initiated new positions in Johnson & Johnson, U.S. Bancorp, Baxter International, Inc. and Southwestern. We view all of these businesses as high quality leaders with excellent competitive positioning and the ability to create value for Core Select’s shareholders over many years. Seeking to take advantage of intermittent valuation opportunities throughout the year, we added to our positions in U.S. Bancorp and Baxter, and as of October 31, both were Top 10 positions in Core Select.

In addition to the sales of Intuit and Vulcan, we exited Cadbury Plc. and XTO Energy, Inc. when they were purchased by Kraft Foods, Inc. and Exxon Mobil Corp., respectively. We also sold our position in Bed, Bath & Beyond as its share price neared our estimate of intrinsic value.

Looking forward, we remain committed as always to the principles and process that have driven the Fund’s performance over the last five years. Our achievement of solid absolute and relative returns over this period of volatile and uncertain market conditions is testament to the talents of our analyst team and the merits of our Core Select investment approach.

Thank you for your continued investment in Core Select.

BBH CORE SELECT

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Trustees of the BBH Trust and Shareholders of
BBH Core Select:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, of BBH Core Select (a series of BBH Trust) (the “Fund”) as of October 31, 2010, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. 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 audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 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. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also 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, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2010, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide 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 BBH Core Select as of October 31, 2010, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-06 “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements.” This ASU adds new disclosure requirements for transfers into and out of Levels 1 and 2 fair-value measurements and information on purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair-value measurements. It also clarifies existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation, inputs and valuation techniques. Except for the detailed Level 3 reconciliation disclosures, the guidance in the ASU is effective for annual and interim reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2009. The new disclosures for Level 3 activity are effective for annual and interim reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. Management of the Fund continues to evaluate the impact the adoption will have on the Fund’s holdings disclosure.

The Fund is required to disclose information regarding the fair value measurements of a Fund’s assets and liabilities. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The disclosure requirement established a three-tier hierarchy to maximize the use of observable market data and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk, for example, the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value including such a pricing model and/or the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own considerations about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The three levels defined by the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

—   Level 1 – (unadjusted) quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.
 
Level 2 – significant other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
 

Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

Because of the inherent uncertainties of valuation, the values reflected in the financial statements may materially differ from the value received upon the actual sale of those investments.

1.      Organization. The Fund is a separate series of BBH Trust (the “Trust”), which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust was originally organized under the laws of the State of Maryland on July 16, 1990 as BBH Fund, Inc. and re-organized as a Delaware statutory trust on June 12, 2007. The Fund commenced operations on November 2, 1998. On February 20, 2001, the Trustees reclassified the Fund’s outstanding shares as “Class N”. On October 1, 2010, the Trustees established a new class of shares designated as “Retail Class”. As of October 31, 2010, there were no Retail Class shares outstanding. At October 31, 2010, there were four series of the Trust.
 
2.      Significant Accounting Policies. The Fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The following summarizes significant accounting policies of the Fund:
 
  A.      Valuation of Investments. (1) The value of investments listed on a securities exchange is based on the last sale price on that exchange prior to the time when assets are valued, or in the absence of recorded sales, at the average of readily available closing bid and asked prices on such exchange; (2) unlisted securities are valued at the average of the quoted bid and asked prices in the over-the counter market; (3) securities or other assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Trust’s Board of Trustees; (4) short-term investments, which mature in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost if their original maturity was 60 days or less, or by amortizing their value on the 61st day prior to maturity, if their original maturity when acquired by the Fund was more than 60 days, unless this is determined not to represent fair value by the Trust’s Board of Trustees.
 
  B.      Accounting for Investments and Income. Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined on the identified cost method. Dividend income and other distributions from portfolio securities are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of securities received. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or a capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. Interest income is accrued daily. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such tax is uncertain.
 
  C.      Fund Expenses. Most expenses of the Trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned amongst each fund in the Trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.

         D.      Securities Lending. The Fund may lend its portfolio securities to broker-dealers, qualified banks and certain institutional investors. The loans are secured by collateral in an amount equal to at least the market value at all times of the loaned securities plus any accrued interest and dividends. During the time the securities are on loan, the Fund will continue to receive the interest and dividends or amounts equivalent thereto, on the loaned securities while receiving a fee from the borrower or earning interest on the investment of the cash collateral. Loans are subject to termination at the option of the borrower or the Fund. Upon termination of the loan, the borrower will return to the lender securities identical to the loaned securities. The Fund may pay reasonable finders’, administrative and custodial fees in connection with a loan of its securities and may share the interest earned on the collateral with the borrower. The Fund bears the risk of delay in recovery of, or even loss of rights in, the securities loaned should the borrower of the securities fail financially. There were no securities on loan as of October 31, 2010.
 
  E.      Federal Income Taxes. It is the Trust’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Accordingly, no federal income tax provision is required. The Fund files a tax return annually using tax accounting methods required under provisions of the Code, which may differ from GAAP, the basis on which these financial statements are prepared. Accordingly, the amount of net investment income and net realized gain reported on these financial statements may differ from that reported on the Fund’s tax return due to certain book-to-tax timing differences such as losses deferred due to “wash sale” transactions and utilization of capital loss carryforwards. These differences result in temporary over-distributions for financial statement purposes and are classified as distributions in excess of accumulated net realized gains or net investment income. These distributions do not constitute a return of capital. Permanent differences are reclassified on the Statement of Assets & Liabilities based upon their tax classification. As such, the character of distributions to shareholders reported in the Financial Highlights table may differ from that reported to shareholders on Form 1099-DIV.
     
    The Fund is subject to the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits at October 31, 2010, nor were there any increases or decreases in unrecognized tax benefits for the year then ended. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as an income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the year ended October 31, 2010, the Fund did not incur any such interest or penalties. The Fund is subject to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities for returns filed for the prior three fiscal years.

        F.      Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, if any, are paid annually and are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions from net capital gains, if any, are generally declared and paid annually and are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The tax character of distributions paid during the fiscal years ended October 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, were as follows:
 
  Distributions paid from:

  As of October 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, the components of accumulated earnings/(deficit) on a tax basis were as follows:

  2009:   918,733         918,733   $ (3,890,132 )     (162,993 )     5,722,246     2,587,854

  The Fund had no net capital loss carry forward at October 31, 2010.
 
  Total distributions paid may differ from the Statement of Changes in Net Assets because, for tax purposes, dividends are recognized when actually paid.
 
  The differences between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales.
 
  To the extent future capital gains are offset by capital loss carry forwards; such gains will not be distributed.
 
    G.  Use of Estimates. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
     
  A. Investment Advisory and Administrative Fees. Effective June 12, 2007, under a combined Investment Advisory and Administrative Services Agreement (“Agreement”) with the Trust, Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. (“BBH”) through a separately identifiable department (“SID” or “Investment Adviser”) provides investment advisory and portfolio management services to the Fund. BBH also provides administrative services to the Fund. The Fund pays a combined fee for investment advisory and administrative services calculated daily and paid monthly at an annual rate equivalent to 0.80% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For the year ended October 31, 2010, the Fund incurred $2,379,437 for services under the Agreement. BBH had a sub-administration services agreement with Federated Services Company (“FSC”) for which FSC received compensation paid by BBH. The sub-administration services agreement with FSC terminated as of January 31, 2010.
 
  B. Investment Advisory and Administrative Fee Waiver. Effective July 14, 2010, the SID contractually agreed to limit the total annual fund operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, other expenditures that are capitalized in accordance with GAAP, and other extraordinary expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business) of the Fund to 1.00% per annum. The agreement is effective for the period beginning on July 14, 2010 and will terminate on September 30, 2011, unless it is renewed by all parties to the agreement. The agreement may only be terminated during its term with approval of the Fund’s Board of Trustees. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2010, the SID waived fees in the amount of $177,639.

For the year ended October 31, 2010, the Fund incurred a total of $109,746 for custody and fund accounting services.

Pursuant to their agreement the Fund will pay the Federal Funds overnight investment rate on the day of overdraft. The total interest incurred by the Fund for the year ended October 31, 2010 was $0.

6. Principal Risk Factors and Indemnifications.
     
  A. Principal Risk Factors. Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks, as discussed in the Fund’s prospectus, including but not limited to, those described below:
 
    A shareholder may lose money by investing in the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund invests in securities and enters into transactions where risks exist due to fluctuations in the market (market risk), failure of a counterparty to a transaction to perform (credit risk), changes in interest rates (interest rate risk), financial performance or leverage of the issuer (issuer risk), difficulty in being able to purchase or sell a security (liquidity risk), risks associated with investing a significant portion of its assets in bank obligations (concentration risks), or certain risks associated with investing in foreign securities not present in domestic investments (foreign risk). The value of securities held by the Fund may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving the companies whose securities are held by the Fund; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local, regional or political, social or economic instability; and currency and interest rate and price fluctuations. The extent of the Fund’s exposure to these risks in respect to these financial assets is included in their value as recorded in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
 
    Please refer to the Fund’s prospectus for a complete description of the principal risks of investing in the Fund.
 
  B. Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund, and shareholders are indemnified against personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

DISCLOSURE OF FUND EXPENSES
October 31, 2010 (unaudited)

EXAMPLE

As a shareholder of the Fund, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, reinvested distributions, or other distributions; redemption fees; and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution 12b-1 fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the one-half year period and held for the last six months of the fiscal year ended October 31, 2010 (May 1, 2010 to October 31, 2010).

ACTUAL EXPENSES

The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Approval of Investment Advisory and Administrative Services Agreement

At a meeting held in-person on December 8, 2009, the Board, all of whom are not “interested persons,” as defined in the 1940 Act, of the Trust or the Investment Adviser, unanimously approved for an annual period the continuance of the Investment Advisory and Administrative Services Agreement (the “Agreement”), which had been approved by shareholders on May 23, 2007. Both in the meeting specifically held to address the continuance of the Agreement, and at other meetings during the course of the year, the Board requested and received materials relating to services provided by the Investment Adviser under the Agreement. No single factor reviewed by the Board was identified as the principal factor in determining whether to approve the Agreement, and individual Trustees may have given different weight to various factors.

The following is a summary of the factors the Board took into consideration in making its determination to approve continuance of the Agreement. The Board reviewed these factors with its independent counsel.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services Provided by Brown Brothers Harriman’s Mutual Fund Advisory Department (the “SID”) and Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. (“BBH”)

The Board received and considered information during the in-person meeting held on December 8, 2009, and during the past year, regarding the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund by the SID and BBH. The Board noted that, under the Agreement and with respect to the Fund, the SID, subject to the supervision of the Board, is responsible for providing a continuous investment program and making purchases and sales of portfolio securities consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and policies. The Board also noted that BBH provides administrative services to the Fund.

The Board considered the scope and quality of services provided by the SID and BBH under the Agreement. The Board also considered the policies and practices that BBH follows in allocating the portfolio transactions of the Fund, including the policies and practices of the Fund and BBH regarding best execution, “soft dollars” and directed brokerage. The Board considered the scope and quality of BBH’s compliance and internal audit function. The Board also considered BBH’s capabilities in providing directly certain administrative services that had previously been provided by the Fund’s sub-administrator, including the fact that BBH currently supplies such services to other fund complexes. The Board reviewed the qualifications of the key investment personnel primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund. The Board noted that in the course of its regular meetings it received reports on each of the foregoing topics. The Board concluded that, overall, they were satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided, and expected to be provided, to the Fund under the Agreement.

Investment Results

The Board received and considered performance information for the Fund. The Board considered the investment results of the Fund as compared with one or more selected securities indices. In addition to the information received by the Board at the December 8, 2009 meeting, the Board received detailed performance information for the Fund at each regular Board meeting during the year. The Board reviewed information showing performance of the Fund over the 3-month, 1-, 3-, and 5-year periods ended October 31, 2009 and in calendar year 2008, and it compared the performance information to an appropriate securities index over comparable periods. In their review, the Board noted that the performance of the Fund compared favorably to the S&P 500 Index, and that the Fund outperformed the index in each period presented.

Fee Rates

The Board considered the fee rate paid by the Fund to BBH in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by BBH to the Fund. The Board considered the depth and range of services provided under the Agreement, noting that BBH also coordinates the provision of services to the Fund by nonaffiliated service providers. The Board received and considered information comparing the Fund’s investment advisory and administration fees and Fund’s net total expenses with those of comparable industry averages. The Board recognized that it is difficult to make comparisons of these fee rates, or of combined advisory and administration fees, because there are variations in the services that are included in the fees paid by other funds.

Costs of Services Provided and Profitability to BBH

The Board reviewed BBH’s profitability data for the Fund for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, and for the year-earlier period. The data included the effect of revenue generated by the shareholder servicing and administration fees paid by the Fund. The Board also reviewed the allocation methods used in preparing the profitability data. In considering profitability information, the Board considered the effect of fall-out benefits on BBH’s expenses. The Board focused on profitability of BBH’s relationships with the Fund before taxes and distribution expenses. The Board concluded that BBH’s profitability was not excessive in light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund.

The Board considered other benefits received by BBH as a result of the relationship with the Fund. These other benefits include proprietary research received from brokers that execute the Fund’s purchases and sales of securities, fees received for being the Fund’s administrator, custodian and securities lending agent and shareholder servicing fees. In light of the costs of providing services pursuant to the Agreement with the Fund as well as BBH’s commitment to the Fund, the ancillary benefits that the SID and BBH received were considered reasonable.

Economies of Scale

The Board noted that the fee schedule for the Fund does not contain breakpoints. The Board observed that in the mutual fund industry as a whole, as well as among funds similar to the Fund, there appeared to be no uniformity or pattern in the fees and asset levels at which breakpoints (if any) apply. In light of the Fund’s current size and expense structure, the Board concluded that it was unnecessary at this time to consider breakpoints with respect to the Fund. The Board concluded that the fees paid by the Fund to BBH were reasonable based on the comparative performance and expense information, and the cost of the services provided and the profits to be realized by BBH.

Conflicts of Interest

Certain conflicts of interest may arise in connection with a portfolio manager’s management of the Fund’s investments, on the one hand, and the investments of other accounts for which the portfolio manager is responsible, on the other. For example, it is possible that the various accounts managed could have different investment strategies that, at times, might conflict with one another to the possible detriment of the Fund. Alternatively, to the extent that the same investment opportunities might be desirable for more than one account, possible conflicts could arise in determining how to allocate them.

Other potential conflicts might include conflicts between the Fund and its affiliated and unaffiliated service providers (e.g., conflicting duties of loyalty). In addition to providing investment management services through the Investment Adviser, BBH provides administrative, custody, fund accounting, and securities lending services to the Fund. BBH may have conflicting duties of loyalty while servicing the Fund and/or opportunities to further its own interest to the detriment of the Fund. For example, in negotiating fee arrangements with affiliated service providers, BBH may have an incentive to agree to higher fees than it would in the case of unaffiliated providers. Also, because its advisory fees are calculated by reference to the Fund’s net assets, the Investment Adviser and its affiliates may have an incentive to seek to overvalue certain assets.

The SID may direct brokerage transactions and/or payment of a portion of client commissions (“soft dollars”) to specific brokers or dealers or other providers to pay for research or brokerage services. The use of a broker that provides research and securities transaction services may result in a higher commission than that offered by a broker who does not provide such services. The Investment Adviser will determine in good faith whether the amount of commission is reasonable in relation to the value of research and brokerage services provided and whether the services provide lawful and appropriate assistance in its investment decision-making responsibilities.

Arrangements regarding compensation and delegation of responsibility may create conflicts relating to selection of brokers or dealers to execute Fund portfolio trades and/or specific uses of commissions from Fund portfolio trades, administration of investment advice and valuation of securities.

BBH may enter into advisory and/or referral arrangements with third parties. Such arrangements may include compensation paid by BBH to the third party. BBH may pay a solicitation fee for referrals and/or advisory or incentive fees.

BBH, including the Investment Adviser, seeks to meet its fiduciary obligation with respect to all clients including the Fund. BBH has adopted and implemented policies and procedures that seek to manage conflicts. The Investment Adviser monitors a variety of areas, including compliance with fund investment guidelines, review of allocation decisions, the investment in only those securities within the parameters of which have been approved for purchase by an oversight committee, and compliance with the Investment Adviser’s Code of Ethics. With respect to the allocation of investment opportunities, BBH has adopted and implemented policies designed to achieve fair and equitable allocation of investment opportunities among its clients over time. BBH has structured the portfolio managers’ compensation in a manner it believes is reasonably designed to safeguard the Fund from being negatively affected as a result of any such potential conflicts.

The Trust also manages these conflicts. For example, the Fund has designated a chief compliance officer and has adopted and implemented policies and procedures designed to address the conflicts identified above and other conflicts that may arise in the course of the Fund’s operations in such a way as to safeguard the Fund from being negatively affected as a result of any such potential conflicts. The Trustees receive regular reports from the Investment Adviser and the Fund’s chief compliance officer on areas of potential conflict.

BBH INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE
October 31, 2010

For the 12-month period ended October 31, 2010, the BBH International Equity Fund (the “Fund”) Class N Shares and Class I Shares respectively returned 10.61% and 10.88%, net of fees. The Fund’s benchmark, MSCI Europe, Australasia Far East Index1 (the “EAFE”), returned 8.36% over the same period. The Fund continues to employ two sub-advisers who are monitored by the investment adviser. One manager, Mondrian Investment Partners (“Mondrian”), employs a value strategy while the other, Walter Scott & Partners (“Walter Scott”), employs a growth strategy. New assets continue to be allocated equally between both managers.

The Fund outperformed its index for the fiscal year, as both sub-advisers were able to protect capital better than the index during the second quarter of 2010, when the economic turmoil in the euro zone coincided with a broad sell-off of equities. The Fund benefited during the second quarter from its underweight to euro zone equities and negligible exposure to stocks from those euro zone countries most plagued by fiscal problems. Both Walter Scott and Mondrian highlight that their euro zone-based holdings derive sizeable portions of their revenues from overseas markets, which should help cushion these companies from the economic malaise in their domestic markets. An overweight to the Consumer Staples sector and underweight to the Financials sector helped relative performance. Both sub-advisers maintain conservative, underweight positions to the Financials sector, with Mondrian concentrating its exposure on companies focused on retail banking with stringent lending criteria and Walter Scott focusing on well-capitalized banks with emerging markets exposure. Fund performance was negatively impacted during the fiscal year by overweight positions in the Health Care and Energy sectors. The market generally sold off sectors, such as Health Care, with exposure to government spending, while the Energy sector was shunned amidst the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

Both managers continued to employ strategies focused on an objective of total return, primarily through capital appreciation rather than on particular benchmarks. They invest in what they believe are quality businesses with clear plans for the future, competitive positions among peers and strong management teams dedicated to increasing shareholder value.


1      MSCI Europe, Australasia and Far East Index (EAFE) is an unmanaged market capitalization-weight equity index comprising 20 of 48 countries in the MSCI universe and representing the developed world outside of North America. Each MSCI country index is created separately, then aggregated, without change, into regional MSCI indices. EAFE performance data is calculated in U.S. dollars and in local currency. Investments cannot be made in an index.

The graph below illustrates the hypothetical investment of $10,0001 in the Class N Shares of the Fund over the ten years ended October 31, 2010 as compared to the EAFE.


Performance quoted represents past performance which is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Mutual fund performance changes over time and current performance may be lower or higher than what is stated. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. For current to the most recent month end performance and after tax returns, contact the Fund at 1-800-625-5759.


1      The Fund’s performance assumes the reinvestment of all dividends and distributions. The EAFE has been adjusted to reflect reinvestment of dividends on securities in the index. The EAFE is not adjusted to reflect sales charges, expenses or other fees that the Securities and Exchange Commission requires to be reflected in the Fund’s performance.

 

FINANCIAL STATEMENT OCTOBER 31, 2010 3


BBH INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Trustees of the BBH Trust and Shareholders of
BBH International Equity Fund:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, of BBH International Equity Fund (a series of BBH Trust) (the “Fund”) as of October 31, 2010, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. 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 audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 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. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also 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, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2010, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide 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 BBH International Equity Fund as of October 31, 2010, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-06 “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements.” This ASU adds new disclosure requirements for transfers into and out of Levels 1 and 2 fair-value measurements and information on purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair-value measurements. It also clarifies existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation, inputs and valuation techniques. Except for the detailed Level 3 reconciliation disclosures, the guidance in the ASU is effective for annual and interim reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2009. The new disclosures for Level 3 activity are effective for annual and interim reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. Management of the Fund continues to evaluate the impact the adoption will have on the Fund’s holdings disclosure.

The Fund is required to disclose information regarding the fair value measurements of a Fund’s assets and liabilities. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The disclosure requirement established a three-tier hierarchy to maximize the use of observable market data and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk, for example, the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value including such a pricing model and/or the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own considerations about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The three levels defined by the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

—  Level 1 – (unadjusted) quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.
 
—  Level 2 – significant other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
 

— 

Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

Because of the inherent uncertainties of valuation, the values reflected in the financial statements may materially differ from the value received upon the actual sale of those investments.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT OCTOBER 31, 2010 21



BBH INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
October 31, 2010

1.      Organization. The Fund is a separate series of BBH Trust (the “Trust”), which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust was originally organized under the laws of the State of Maryland on July 16, 1990 as BBH Fund, Inc. and re-organized as a Delaware statutory trust on June 12, 2007. The Fund commenced operations on June 6, 1997. On February 20, 2001, the Trustees reclassified the Fund’s outstanding shares as “Class N,” and established a new class of shares designated as “Class I”. Class I commenced operations on October 30, 2002. Class N and Class I shares have different operating expenses. Neither Class N shares nor Class I shares convert to any other class of the Fund. At October 31, 2010, there were four series of the Trust.
   
2.      Significant Accounting Policies. The Fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The following summarizes significant accounting policies of the Fund:
       
         A.      Valuation of Investments. (1) The value of investments listed on a securities exchange is based on the last sale price on that exchange prior to the time when assets are valued, or in the absence of recorded sales, at the average of readily available closing bid and asked prices on such exchange; (2) unlisted securities are valued at the average of the quoted bid and asked prices in the over-the counter market; (3) securities or other assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Trust’s Board of Trustees; (4) for securities traded on international exchanges, if events which may materially affect the value of the Fund’s securities occur after the close of the primary exchange and before a Fund’s net asset value is next determined, then those securities will be valued at fair value as determined in good faith under the supervision of the Trust’s Board of Trustees. The Fund may use a systematic fair value model provided by an independent third party to value international securities; (5) short-term investments, which mature in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost if their original maturity was 60 days or less, or by amortizing their value on the 61st day prior to maturity, if their original maturity when acquired by the Fund was more than 60 days, unless this is determined not to represent fair value by the Trust’s Board of Trustees.
 
  B.      Accounting for Investments and Income. Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined on the identified cost method. Dividend income and other distributions from portfolio securities are recorded on the exdividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of securities received. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or a capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and as a realized gain, respectively. Interest income is accrued daily. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such tax is uncertain.

         C.      Fund Expenses. Most expenses of the Trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned amongst each fund in the Trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
 
  D.      Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts. The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts (“Contracts”) in connection with planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the U.S. dollar value of portfolio securities denominated in a particular currency, or to increase or shift its exposure to a currency other than U.S. dollars. The Fund has no specific limitation on the percentage of assets which may be committed to these types of Contracts. The Fund could be exposed to risks if the counterparties to the Contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts or if the value of the foreign currency changes unfavorably. The U.S. dollar values of foreign currency underlying all contractual commitments held by the Fund are determined using forward currency exchange rates supplied by a quotation service. At October 31, 2010, the Fund had no open Contracts.
 
         E.      Foreign Currency Translations. The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars at the current rate of exchange of such currency against the U.S. dollar to determine the value of investments, assets and liabilities. Purchases and sales of securities, and income and expenses are translated at the prevailing rate of exchange on the respective dates of such transactions. Upon the purchase or sale of a security denominated in foreign currency, the Fund may enter into forward currency exchange contracts for the purchase or sale of a fixed amount of U.S. dollars of the amount of foreign currency involved in the underlying security transaction. Reported net realized gains and losses arise from the sales of portfolio securities, sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. The effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign denominated securities is included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on foreign currency translations. Net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on foreign currency translations arise from changes in the value of the assets and liabilities, excluding investments in securities, at period year end, resulting from changes in the exchange rate.
 
         F.      Restricted Securities. The Fund may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
October 31, 2010

         G.      Securities Lending. The Fund may lend its portfolio securities to broker-dealers, qualified banks and certain institutional investors. The loans are secured by collateral in an amount equal to at least the market value at all times of the loaned securities plus any accrued interest and dividends. During the time the securities are on loan, the Fund will continue to receive the interest and dividends or amounts equivalent thereto, on the loaned securities while receiving a fee from the borrower or earning interest on the investment of the cash collateral. Loans are subject to termination at the option of the borrower or the Fund. Upon termination of the loan, the borrower will return to the lender securities identical to the loaned securities. The Fund may pay reasonable finders’, administrative and custodial fees in connection with a loan of its securities and may share the interest earned on the collateral with the borrower. The Fund bears the risk of delay in recovery of, or even loss of rights in, the securities loaned should the borrower of the securities fail financially. There were no securities on loan as of October 31, 2010.
 
         H.      Federal Income Taxes. It is the Trust’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Accordingly, no federal income tax provision is required. The Fund files a tax return annually using tax accounting methods required under provisions of the Code, which may differ from GAAP, the basis on which these financial statements are prepared. Accordingly, the amount of net investment income and net realized gain reported on these financial statements may differ from that reported on the Fund’s tax return due to certain book-to-tax timing differences such as losses deferred due to “wash sale” transactions and utilization of capital loss carryforwards. These differences result in temporary over-distributions for financial statement purposes and are classified as distributions in excess of accumulated net realized gains or net investment income. These distributions do not constitute a return of capital. Permanent differences are reclassified on the Statement of Assets & Liabilities based upon their tax classification. As such, the character of distributions to shareholders reported in the Financial Highlights table may differ from that reported to shareholders on Form 1099-DIV.
 
    The Fund is subject to the provisions of ASC 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits at October 31, 2010, nor were there any increases or decreases in unrecognized tax benefits for the year then ended. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as an income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the year ended October 31, 2010, the Fund did not incur any such interest or penalties. The Fund is subject to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities for returns filed for the prior three fiscal years.

         I.      Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, if any, were generally declared and paid annually and are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions from net capital gains, if any, are generally declared and paid annually and are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The tax character of distributions paid during the fiscal years ended October 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, were as follows:
 
  Distributions paid from:
 
                 Net   Total       Total
      Ordinary   long-term   taxable   Tax return   distributions
      income   capital gain   distributions   of capital   paid
     
 
 
   
 
  2010:   $ 8,309,089           $   8,309,089       $ 8,309,089
  2009:     13,836,164   $ 11,878,130      25,714,294       25,714,294

                 As of October 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, the components of accumulated earnings/(deficit) on a tax basis were as follows:

  Components of accumulated earnings/(deficit):  
 
 
                            Other         Total  
      Undistributed   Undistributed         Accumulated   book/tax   Unrealized   accumulated  
      ordinary   long-term   Accumulated   capital and   temporary   appreciation/   earnings/

  2009:     7,560,300       7,560,300     (63,283,423 )   (2,453,848 )   43,349,196     (14,827,775 )

                 The Fund has a net capital loss carryforward of approximately $62,728,716, which expires as follows:

Expiration date   Amount

 
10/31/2017     $62,728,716

                  Total distributions paid may differ from the Statement of Changes in Net Assets because, for tax purposes, dividends are recognized when actually paid. The differences between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales.
 
  J.      Use of Estimates. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

3.      Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
 
         A.      Investment Advisory and Administrative Fees. Effective June 12, 2007, under a combined Investment Advisory and Administrative Services Agreement (“Agreement”) with the Trust, Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. (“BBH”) through a separately identifiable department (“SID” or “Investment Adviser”) provides investment advisory and portfolio management services to the Fund. The SID currently oversees Mondrian Investment Partners Limited and Walter Scott & Partners (collectively “Sub-advisers”), who are responsible for investing the assets of the Fund. BBH also provides administrative services to the Fund. The Fund pays a combined fee for investment advisory and administrative services calculated daily and paid monthly at an annual rate equivalent to 0.80% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. The SID pays each Sub-adviser a sub-adviser fee from its investment advisory and administrative fees. For the year ended October 31, 2010, the Fund incurred $4,572,955 for services under the Agreement. BBH had a sub-administration services agreement with Federated Services Company (“FSC”) for which FSC received compensation paid by BBH. The sub-administration services agreement with FSC terminated as of January 31, 2010.
 
  B.      Shareholder Servicing Fees. The Trustee has a shareholder servicing agreement with BBH for which BBH receives a fee from the Fund calculated daily and paid monthly at an annual rate of 0.25% of Class N shares’ average daily net assets. For the year ended October 31, 2010, Class N shares of the Fund incurred $1,299,023 for shareholder servicing services.
 
         C.      Custody and Fund Accounting Fees. BBH acts as a custodian and receives custody and fund accounting fees from the Fund calculated daily and paid monthly. BBH holds all cash and investments and calculates the daily net asset value. The custody fee is an asset and transaction based fee. The fund accounting fee is an asset based fee calculated at 0.04% per annum on the first $100 million of net assets, 0.02% per annum on the next $400 million of net assets and 0.01% per annum on all net assets over $500 million. For the year ended October 31, 2010, the Fund incurred a total of $397,256 for custody and fund accounting services. These fees were reduced by $9,655 as a result of an expense offset arrangement with the Fund’s custodian. In the event that the Fund is overdrawn, under the custody agreement with BBH, BBH will make overnight loans to the Fund to cover overdrafts. Pursuant to their agreement the Fund will pay the Federal Funds overnight investment rate on the day of overdraft. The total interest incurred by the Fund for the year ended October 31, 2010 was $645.
 
  D.      Securities Lending Fees. The Trust has a securities lending agreement with BBH for which BBH receives a portion of the securities lending proceeds. For the year ended October 31, 2010, BBH received no securities lending proceeds.

6.      Principal Risk Factors and Indemnifications.
 
  A.      Principal Risk Factors. Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks, as discussed in the Fund’s prospectus, including but not limited to, those described below:
 
    A shareholder may lose money by investing in the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund invests in securities and enters into transactions where risks exist due to fluctuations in the market (market risk), failure of a counterparty to a transaction to perform (credit risk), changes in interest rates (interest rate risk), financial performance or leverage of the issuer (issuer risk), difficulty in being able to purchase or sell a security (liquidity risk), risks associated with investing a significant portion of its assets in bank obligations (concentration risks), or certain risks associated with investing in foreign securities not present in domestic investments (foreign risk). The value of securities held by the Fund may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving the companies whose securities are held by the Fund; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local, regional or political, social or economic instability; and currency and interest rate and price fluctuations. The extent of the Fund’s exposure to these risks in respect to these financial assets is included in their value as recorded in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
 
    Please refer to the Fund’s prospectus for a complete description of the principal risks of investing in the Fund.
 
  B.      Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund, and shareholders are indemnified against personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

DISCLOSURE OF FUND EXPENSES
October 31, 2010 (unaudited)

EXAMPLE

As a shareholder of the Fund, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, reinvested distributions, or other distributions; redemption fees; and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution 12b-1 fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the one-half year period and held for the last six months of the fiscal year ended October 31, 2010 (May 1, 2010 to October 31, 2010).

ACTUAL EXPENSES

The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Approval of Investment Advisory and Administrative Services Agreement

At a meeting held in-person on December 8, 2009, the Board, all of whom are not “interested persons,” as defined in the 1940 Act, of the Trust or the Investment Adviser, unanimously approved for an annual period the continuance of the Investment Advisory and Administrative Services Agreement (the “Agreement”), which had been approved by shareholders on May 23, 2007. Both in the meeting specifically held to address the continuance of the Agreement, and at other meetings during the course of the year, the Board requested and received materials relating to services provided by the Investment Adviser under the Agreement. No single factor reviewed by the Board was identified as the principal factor in determining whether to approve the Agreement, and individual Trustees may have given different weight to various factors.

The following is a summary of the factors the Board took into consideration in making its determination to approve continuance of the Agreement. The Board reviewed these factors with its independent counsel.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services Provided by Brown Brothers Harriman’s Mutual Fund Advisory Department (the “SID”) and Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. (“BBH”)

The Board received and considered information during the in-person meeting held on December 8, 2009, and during the past year, regarding the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund by the SID and BBH. The Board noted that, under the Agreement and with respect to the Fund, the SID, subject to the supervision of the Board, is responsible for providing a continuous investment program and making purchases and sales of portfolio securities consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and policies. The Board also noted that BBH provides administrative services to the Fund.

The Board considered the scope and quality of services provided by the SID and BBH under the Agreement. The Board also considered the policies and practices that BBH follows in allocating the portfolio transactions of the Fund, including the policies and practices of the Fund and BBH regarding best execution, “soft dollars” and directed brokerage. The Board considered the scope and quality of BBH’s compliance and internal audit function. The Board also considered BBH’s capabilities in providing directly certain administrative services that had previously been provided by the Fund’s sub-administrator, including the fact that BBH currently supplies such services to other fund complexes. The Board reviewed the qualifications of the key investment personnel primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund. The Board noted that in the course of its regular meetings it received reports on each of the foregoing topics. The Board concluded that, overall, they were satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided, and expected to be provided, to the Fund under the Agreement.

Investment Results

The Board received and considered performance information for the Fund. The Board considered the investment results of the Fund as compared with one or more selected securities indices. In addition to the information received by the Board at the December 8, 2009 meeting, the Board received detailed performance information for the Fund at each regular Board meeting during the year. The Board reviewed information showing performance of each Fund over the 3-month, 1-, 3-, and 5- year periods ended October 31, 2009 and in calendar year 2008, and it compared the performance information to an appropriate securities index over comparable periods. In their review, the Board noted that in the short-term, the Fund modestly underperformed the MSCI Europe, Australasia Far East Index (the “MSCI-EAFE Index”), with results in longer periods comparing favorably to the MSCI-EAFE Index.

Fee Rates

The Board considered the fee rate paid by the Fund to BBH in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by BBH to the Fund. The Board considered the depth and range of services provided under the Agreement, noting that BBH also coordinates the provision of services to the Fund by nonaffiliated service providers. The Board received and considered information comparing the Fund’s investment advisory and administration fees and Fund’s net total expenses with those of comparable industry averages. The Board recognized that it is difficult to make comparisons of these fee rates, or of combined advisory and administration fees, because there are variations in the services that are included in the fees paid by other funds.

Costs of Services Provided and Profitability to BBH

The Board reviewed BBH’s profitability data for the Fund for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, and for the year-earlier period. The data included the effect of revenue generated by the shareholder servicing and administration fees paid by the Fund. The Board also reviewed the allocation methods used in preparing the profitability data. In considering profitability information, the Board considered the effect of fall-out benefits on BBH’s expenses. The Board focused on profitability of BBH’s relationships with the Fund before taxes and distribution expenses. The Board concluded that BBH’s profitability was not excessive in light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund.

The Board considered other benefits received by BBH as a result of the relationship with the Fund. These other benefits include proprietary research received from brokers that execute the Fund’s purchases and sales of securities, fees received for being the Fund’s administrator, custodian and securities lending agent and shareholder servicing fees. In light of the costs of providing services pursuant to the Agreement with the Fund as well as BBH’s commitment to the Fund, the ancillary benefits that the SID and BBH received were considered reasonable.

Economies of Scale

The Board noted that the fee schedule for the Fund does not contain breakpoints. The Board observed that in the mutual fund industry as a whole, as well as among funds similar to the Fund, there appeared to be no uniformity or pattern in the fees and asset levels at which breakpoints (if any) apply. In light of the Fund’s current size and expense structure, the Board concluded that it was unnecessary at this time to consider breakpoints with respect to the Fund. The Board concluded that the fees paid by the Fund to BBH were reasonable based on the comparative performance and expense information, and the cost of the services provided and the profits to be realized by BBH.

Conflicts of Interest

Certain conflicts of interest may arise in connection with a portfolio manager’s management of the Fund’s investments, on the one hand, and the investments of other accounts for which the portfolio manager is responsible, on the other. For example, it is possible that the various accounts managed could have different investment strategies that, at times, might conflict with one another to the possible detriment of the Fund. Alternatively, to the extent that the same investment opportunities might be desirable for more than one account, possible conflicts could arise in determining how to allocate them.

Other potential conflicts might include conflicts between the Fund and its affiliated and unaffiliated service providers (e.g., conflicting duties of loyalty). In addition to providing investment management services through the Investment Adviser, BBH provides administrative, custody, fund accounting, and securities lending services to the Fund. BBH may have conflicting duties of loyalty while servicing the Fund and/or opportunities to further its own interest to the detriment of the Fund. For example, in negotiating fee arrangements with affiliated service providers, BBH may have an incentive to agree to higher fees than it would in the case of unaffiliated providers. Also, because its advisory fees are calculated by reference to the Fund’s net assets, the Investment Adviser and its affiliates may have an incentive to seek to overvalue certain assets.

The SID may direct brokerage transactions and/or payment of a portion of client commissions (“soft dollars”) to specific brokers or dealers or other providers to pay for research or brokerage services. The use of a broker that provides research and securities transaction services may result in a higher commission than that offered by a broker who does not provide such services. The Investment Adviser will determine in good faith whether the amount of commission is reasonable in relation to the value of research and brokerage services provided and whether the services provide lawful and appropriate assistance in its investment decision-making responsibilities.

Arrangements regarding compensation and delegation of responsibility may create conflicts relating to selection of brokers or dealers to execute Fund portfolio trades and/or specific uses of commissions from Fund portfolio trades, administration of investment advice and valuation of securities.

BBH may enter into advisory and/or referral arrangements with third parties. Such arrangements may include compensation paid by BBH to the third party. BBH may pay a solicitation fee for referrals and/or advisory or incentive fees.

BBH, including the Investment Adviser, seeks to meet its fiduciary obligation with respect to all clients including the Fund. BBH has adopted and implemented policies and procedures that seek to manage conflicts. The Investment Adviser monitors a variety of areas, including compliance with fund investment guidelines, review of allocation decisions, the investment in only those securities within the parameters of which have been approved for purchase by an oversight committee, and compliance with the Investment Adviser’s Code of Ethics. With respect to the allocation of investment opportunities, BBH has adopted and implemented policies designed to achieve fair and equitable allocation of investment opportunities among its clients over time. BBH has structured the portfolio managers’ compensation in a manner it believes is reasonably designed to safeguard the Fund from being negatively affected as a result of any such potential conflicts.

The Trust also manages these conflicts. For example, the Fund has designated a chief compliance officer and has adopted and implemented policies and procedures designed to address the conflicts identified above and other conflicts that may arise in the course of the Fund’s operations in such a way as to safeguard the Fund from being negatively affected as a result of any such potential conflicts. The Trustees receive regular reports from the Investment Adviser and the Fund’s chief compliance officer on areas of potential conflict.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE
October 31, 2010

History suggests that economic recoveries following a financial crisis tend to be far less robust than those following traditional business cycle recessions, with persistently sluggish growth and high unemployment. The current recovery, which was preceded by the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression, has followed this script. Despite an $800 billion stimulus package and accommodative monetary policy, including a 0% Federal Funds rate and over $1 trillion in financial asset purchases, U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) growth has only averaged 2.5% in 2010. By contrast, in the year directly following the recessions of 1981-1982 and 1990-1991, growth averaged 7.8% and 4.3% respectively. In 2010, the unemployment rate has remained stubbornly high at approximately 9.5%, the worst in 30 years. The wealth destruction in U.S. equities and real estate resulting from the crisis, combined with high consumer debt, has led to a secular change in household savings behavior that we believe will likely stunt consumer spending, the largest component of U.S. GDP, for many quarters to come. Yet despite this grim economic environment, U.S. corporations have shown tremendous resilience. Benefiting from relatively low debt levels pre-crisis, streamlined business models, and a weakening domestic currency, U.S. corporations have strung together several quarters of strong earnings in 2010, further improving their balance sheet condition. Corporations have also benefited from historically low interest rates. Year-to-date through October, two- and five-year Treasury securities have fallen 80 basis points1 and 151 basis points respectively, to lows of 0.34% and 1.17%. These low rates allowed several corporations, including Microsoft Corp. and IBM, to issue three-year maturity debt with coupon rates under 1%.

By the beginning of 2010, corporate bond spreads had recovered much of the ground lost during the credit crisis. While this limited their return potential relative to 2009, we believed spreads still had room to move lower supported by solid corporate earnings, strong corporate balance sheets, and a highly accommodative Federal Reserve. Moreover, we also believed that asset-backed securities (ABS), collateralized by automobiles and credit cards, continued to offer ample relative value given their strong structural performance throughout a highly stressed economic period. As a result, we maintained the majority of the BBH Broad Market Fund’s (the “Fund”) assets in high quality corporate bonds and ABS throughout the period. Credit spreads were volatile in 2010, particularly in the spring, as European policy makers grappled with weakening sovereign debt2 exposures throughout their banking system. By the summer, capital markets appeared temporarily satisfied with government measures employed to stabilize the European banking sector and shifted their focus to the Federal Reserve and its expected expansion of government bond purchases or “Quantitative Easing 2.” The first dose of quantitative easing in 2009 was highly supportive to corporate spreads, and markets, anticipating more of the same, drove spreads lower. Tighter credit spreads and lower interest rates drove positive returns of 4.58% for Class N shares and 4.83% for Class I shares, net of fees, for the 12-month period ending October 31, 2010. While we believe short-maturity, high quality corporate bonds and ABS continue to offer reasonable value compared to government securities, we are concerned about the asymmetric return characteristics of historically low interest rates. To mitigate this risk, we have allowed the Fund’s weighted average maturity to shorten throughout 2010 and also employed the use of Treasury futures to further moderate interest rate risk. We expect to maintain this strategy going forward.

Growth of $10,000 Invested in BBH Broad Market Fund

The graph below illustrates the hypothetical investment of $10,0001 in the Class N shares of the Fund over the ten years ended October 31, 2010 as compared to the BCAG.


Performance data quoted represents past performance which is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principle value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Mutual fund performance changes over time and current performance may be lower or higher than what is stated. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. For current to the most recent month end performance and after tax returns, contact the Fund at 1-800-625-5759.


1      The Fund’s performance assumes the reinvestment of all dividends and distributions. The Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (“BCAG”) has been adjusted to reflect reinvestment of dividends on securities in the index. The BCAG is not adjusted to reflect sales charges, expenses or other fees that the Securities and Exchange Commission requires to be reflected in the Fund’s performance. The index is unmanaged. Investments cannot be made in an index.
 
2      The BBH Broad Market Fund – Class N commenced operations on December 22, 2000. Performance prior to December 22, 2000 is that of the BBH Broad Market Fixed Income Portfolio adjusted to assume that all charges, expenses and fees of the Class N shares and the Portfolio which are presently in effect were deducted during such periods, as permitted by applicable SEC staff interpretations. The Class N shares’ annualized performance from December 22, 2000 (commencement of operations) to October 31, 2010 was 5.12%.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Trustees of the BBH Trust and Shareholders of
BBH Broad Market Fund:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, of BBH Broad Market Fund (a series of BBH Trust) (the “Fund”) as of October 31, 2010, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. 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 audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 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. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also 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, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2010, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide 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 BBH Broad Market Fund as of October 31, 2010, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-06 “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements.” This ASU adds new disclosure requirements for transfers into and out of Levels 1 and 2 fair-value measurements and information on purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair-value measurements. It also clarifies existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation, inputs and valuation techniques. Except for the detailed Level 3 reconciliation disclosures, the guidance in the ASU is effective for annual and interim reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2009. The new disclosures for Level 3 activity are effective for annual and interim reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. Management of the Fund continues to evaluate the impact the adoption will have on the Fund’s holdings disclosure.

The Fund is required to disclose information regarding the fair value measurements of a Fund’s assets and liabilities. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The disclosure requirement established a three-tier hierarchy to maximize the use of observable market data and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk, for example, the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value including such a pricing model and/or the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own considerations about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The three levels defined by the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

—  Level 1 – (unadjusted) quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.
   
Level 2 – significant other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
   
Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

Because of the inherent uncertainties of valuation, the values reflected in the financial statements may materially differ from the value received upon the actual sale of those investments.

BBH BROAD MARKET FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
October 31, 2010

1.      Organization. The Fund is a separate series of BBH Trust (the “Trust”), which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust was originally organized under the laws of the State of Maryland on July 16, 1990 as BBH Fund, Inc. and re-organized as a Delaware statutory trust on June 12, 2007. The Fund commenced operations on December 22, 2000. On August 6, 2002, the Trustees reclassified the Fund’s outstanding shares as “Class N,” and established a new class of shares designated as “Class I”. Class I commenced on December 3, 2002. Class N and Class I shares have different operating expenses. Neither Class N shares nor Class I shares convert to any other class of the Fund. At October 31, 2010, there were four series of the Trust.
   
2. Significant Accounting Policies. The Fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The following summarizes significant accounting policies of the Fund:
   
   A.      Valuation of Investments. Bonds and other fixed income securities, including restricted securities (other than short-term obligations but including listed issues) are valued at their most recent bid prices (sales price if the principal market is an exchange) in the principal market in which such securities are normally traded, on the basis of valuations furnished by a pricing service, use of which has been approved by the Trustees. In making such valuations, the pricing service utilizes both dealer-supplied valuations and electronic data processing techniques, which take into account appropriate factors such as institutional-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other market data, without exclusive reliance upon quoted prices or exchange or over-the-counter prices, since such valuations are believed to reflect more accurately the fair value of such securities.
 
    Securities or other assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Trustees. Short-term investments, which mature in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost if their original maturity was 60 days or less, or by amortizing their value on the 61st day prior to maturity, if their original maturity when acquired by the Fund was more than 60 days, unless this is determined not to represent fair value by the Trustees.
 
  B.      Accounting for Investments and Income. Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined on the identified cost method. Interest income is accrued daily and consists of interest accrued, discount earned (including both original issue and market discount) and premium amortization on the investments of the Fund. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such tax is uncertain. Debt obligations may be placed on non-accrual status and related interest income may be reduced by ceasing current accruals and writing off interest receivable when the collection of all

FINANCIAL STATEMENT OCTOBER 31, 2010 23



BBH BROAD MARKET FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
October 31, 2010

    or a portion of interest has become doubtful based on consistently applied procedures. A debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status when the issuer resumes interest payments or when collectability of interest is reasonably assured.
     
  C.      Fund Expenses. Most expenses of the Trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned amongst each fund in the Trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
 
  D.      Repurchase Agreements. The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with primary dealers of U.S. Government obligations as designated by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Repurchase agreements are transactions in which the Fund buys a security from a dealer or bank and agrees to sell the security back at a mutually agreed upon time and price. The repurchase price exceeds the sale price, reflecting the Fund’s return on the transaction or effectively the interest rate paid by the dealer to the Fund. This return is unrelated to the interest rate on the underlying security. The Fund will enter into repurchase agreements only with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as securities dealers, deemed creditworthy by the investment adviser. The Fund’s custodian or sub-custodian will take possession of the securities subject to repurchase agreements. The investment adviser or sub-custodian will monitor the value of the underlying security each day to ensure that the value of the security always equals or exceeds the repurchase price. Repurchase agreements are subject to credit risks. At October 31, 2010, the Fund had no open repurchase agreements.
 
   E.      Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts. The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts (“Contracts”) in connection with planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the U.S. dollar value of Fund securities denominated in a particular currency, or to increase or shift its exposure to a currency other than U.S. dollars. The Fund has no specific limitation on the percentage of assets which may be committed to these types of Contracts. The Fund could be exposed to risks if the counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts or if the value of the foreign currency changes unfavorably. The U.S. dollar values of foreign currency underlying all contractual commitments held by the Fund are determined using forward currency exchange rates supplied by a quotation service. At October 31, 2010, the Fund had no open Contracts.
     
   F.      Swap Agreements. The Fund may enter into swap agreements. A swap is an exchange of cash payments based on a notional principal amount between the Fund and another party which is based on a specific financial index. These transactions are entered into in an attempt to obtain a particular return when it is considered desirable to do so, possibly at a lower cost to the Fund than if the Fund had invested directly in an instrument that yielded that desired return. Cash payments are

24



BBH BROAD MARKET FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

     exchanged at specified intervals and recorded in the Statement of Operations as realized gains and losses. The expected income or expense is recorded on an accrual basis. The value of the swap is adjusted daily, and the change in value is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Risks may arise upon entering into these agreements from the potential inability of counter parties to meet the terms of their contract and from unanticipated changes in the value of the financial index on which the swap agreement is based. Risks may exceed amounts recognized on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Fund may use swaps for both hedging and non-hedging purposes. For hedging purposes, the Fund may use swaps to reduce its exposure to interest and foreign exchange rate fluctuations. For non-hedging purposes, the Fund may use swaps to take a position on anticipated changes in the underlying financial index. The Fund did not have any swap activity during the year ended October 31, 2010.
     
  G.      Financial Futures Contracts. The Fund may enter into open futures contracts in order to hedge against anticipated future changes in interest rates, which otherwise might either adversely affect the value of securities held for the Fund or adversely affect the prices of securities that are intended to be purchased at a later date for the Fund. The contractual amount of the futures contracts represents the investment the Fund has in a particular contract and does not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. Trading in futures contracts involves, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of any futures variation margin reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The measurement of risk associated with futures contracts is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered. Gains and losses are realized upon the expiration or closing of the futures contracts. Futures contracts held by the Fund are valued daily at the official settlement price of the exchange on which it is traded. The following futures contracts were open at October 31, 2010:

    H.      Rule 144A Securities. The Fund may purchase securities that are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“1933 Act”) but that can be sold to “qualified institutional buyers” in accordance with the requirements stated in Rule 144A under the 1933 Act (“Rule 144A Securities”). A Rule 144A Security may be considered illiquid and therefore subject to the 15% limitation on the purchase of illiquid securities, unless it is determined on an ongoing basis that an adequate trading market exists for the security. Guidelines have been adopted and the daily function of determining and monitoring liquidity of Rule 144A Securities has been delegated to the investment adviser. All relevant factors will be considered in determining the liquidity of Rule 144A Securities and all investments in Rule 144A Securities will be carefully monitored. Information regarding Rule 144A securities is included at the end of the portfolio of investments.
 
  I.      Securities Lending. The Fund may lend its portfolio securities to broker-dealers, qualified banks and certain institutional investors. The loans are secured by collateral in an amount equal to at least the market value at all times of the loaned securities plus any accrued interest and dividends. During the time the securities are on loan, the Fund will continue to receive the interest and

26



BBH BROAD MARKET FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
October 31, 2010

      dividends or amounts equivalent thereto, on the loaned securities while receiving a fee from the borrower or earning interest on the investment of the cash collateral. Loans are subject to termination at the option of the borrower or the Fund. Upon termination of the loan, the borrower will return to the lender securities identical to the loaned securities. The Fund may pay reasonable finders’, administrative and custodial fees in connection with a loan of its securities and may share the interest earned on the collateral with the borrower. The Fund bears the risk of delay in recovery of, or even loss of rights in, the securities loaned should the borrower of the securities fail financially. There were no securities on loan as of October 31, 2010.
     
  J.      Federal Income Taxes. It is the Trust’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Accordingly, no federal income tax provision is required. The Fund files a tax return annually using tax accounting methods required under provisions of the Code, which may differ from GAAP, the basis on which these financial statements are prepared. Accordingly, the amount of net investment income and net realized gain reported on these financial statements may differ from that reported on the Fund’s tax return due to certain book-to-tax timing differences such as losses deferred due to “wash sale” transactions and utilization of capital loss carryforwards. These differences result in temporary over-distributions for financial statement purposes and are classified as distributions in excess of accumulated net realized gains or net investment income. These distributions do not constitute a return of capital. Permanent differences are reclassified on the Statement of Assets & Liabilities based upon their tax classification. As such, the character of distributions to shareholders reported in the Financial Highlights table may differ from that reported to shareholders on Form 1099-DIV.
 
    The Fund is subject to the provisions of ASC 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits at October 31, 2010, nor were there any increases or decreases in unrecognized tax benefits for the year then ended. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as an income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the year ended October 31, 2010, the Fund did not incur any such interest or penalties. The Fund is subject to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities for returns filed for the prior three fiscal years.
     
  K.      Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends to shareholders, if any, are generally declared and paid monthly and are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions from net capital gains, if any, are generally declared and paid annually and are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The tax character of distributions paid during the fiscal years ended October 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, were as follows:

  The Fund had a net capital loss carryforward of approximately $4,235,772, which expires as follows:

Expiration date       Amount

 
10/31/2015   $ 1,699,131
10/31/2016     2,536,641
   
    $ 4,235,772
   

    Total distributions paid may differ from the Statement of Changes in Net Assets because, for tax purposes, dividends are recognized when actually paid.
 
    The differences between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales.
 
    To the extent future capital gains are offset by capital loss carryforwards, such gains will not be distributed.
 
  L.      Use of Estimates. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

3.      Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
 
  A.      Investment Advisory and Administrative Fees. Effective June 12, 2007, under a combined Investment Advisory and Administrative Services Agreement (“Agreement”) with the Trust, Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. (“BBH”) through a separately identifiable department (“SID” or “Investment Adviser”) provides investment advisory and portfolio management services to the Fund. BBH also provides administrative services to the Fund. The Fund pays a combined fee for investment advisory and administrative services calculated daily and paid monthly at an annual rate equivalent to 0.30% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For the year ended October 31, 2010, the Fund incurred $5,346,032 for services under the Agreement. BBH had a sub-administration services agreement with Federated Services Company (“FSC”) for which FSC received compensation paid by BBH. The sub-administration services agreement with FSC terminated as of January 31, 2010.
 
  B.      Shareholder Servicing Fees. The Trust has a shareholder servicing agreement with BBH. BBH receives a fee from the Fund for such services calculated daily and paid monthly at an annual rate of 0.15% of Class N shares’ average daily net assets. For the year ended October 31, 2010, Class N shares of the Fund incurred $1,663,186 for shareholder servicing services.
 
   C.      Custody and Fund Accounting Fees. BBH acts as a custodian and receives custody and fund accounting fees from the Fund calculated daily and paid monthly. BBH holds all cash and investments and calculates the daily net asset value. The custody fee is an asset and transaction based fee. The fund accounting fee is an asset based fee calculated at 0.04% per annum on the first $100 million of net assets, 0.02% per annum on the next $400 million of net assets and 0.01% per annum on all net assets over $500 million. For the year ended October 31, 2010, the Fund incurred a total of $380,926 for custody and fund accounting services. These fees for the Fund were reduced by $1,979 as a result of an expense offset arrangement with the Fund’s custodian. In the event that the Fund is overdrawn, under the custody agreement with BBH, BBH will make overnight loans to the Fund to cover overdrafts. Pursuant to their agreement the Fund will pay the Federal Funds overnight investment rate on the day of overdraft. The total interest incurred by the Fund for the year ended October 31, 2010, was $944.
     
   D.      Securities Lending Fees. The Trust has a securities lending agreement with BBH for which BBH receives a portion of the securities lending proceeds. For the year ended October 31, 2010, BBH received no securities lending proceeds.
 
  E.      Board of Trustees’ Fees. Each Trustee receives an annual fee as well as reimbursement for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses from the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2010, the Fund incurred $79,643 in Trustee compensation and reimbursements.

BBH BROAD MARKET FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
October 31, 2010

6.      Principal Risk Factors and Indemnifications.
 
  A.      Principal Risk Factors. Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks, as discussed in the Fund’s prospectus, including but not limited to, those described below:
 
    A shareholder may lose money by investing in the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund invests in securities and enters into transactions where risks exist due to fluctuations in the market (market risk), failure of a counterparty to a transaction to perform (credit risk), changes in interest rates (interest rate risk), financial performance or leverage of the issuer (issuer risk), difficulty in being able to purchase or sell a security (liquidity risk), risks associated with investing a significant portion of its assets in bank obligations (concentration risks), or certain risks associated with investing in foreign securities not present in domestic investments (foreign risk). The Fund’s use of derivatives and leverage strategies may accelerate the volatility of potential losses. The value of securities held by the Fund may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving the companies whose securities are held by the Fund; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local, regional or political, social or economic instability; and currency and interest rate and price fluctuations. The extent of the Fund’s exposure to these risks in respect to these financial assets is included in their value as recorded in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
 
    Please refer to the Fund’s prospectus for a complete description of the principal risks of investing in the Fund.
     
  B.      Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund, and shareholders are indemnified against personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

DISCLOSURE OF FUND EXPENSES
October 31, 2010 (unaudited)

EXAMPLE

As a shareholder of the Fund, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, reinvested distributions, or other distributions; redemption fees; and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution 12b-1 fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period one-half year and held for the last six months of the fiscal year ended October 31, 2010 (May 1, 2010 to October 31, 2010).

ACTUAL EXPENSES

The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

2      Assumes an annualized return of 5% before expenses. For the purposes of the calculation, the applicable annualized expenses ratio for each class of shares is subtracted from the assumed return before expenses.

DISCLOSURE OF ADVISER SELECTION
October 31, 2010 (unaudited)

Approval of Investment Advisory and Administrative Services Agreement

At a meeting held in-person on December 8, 2009, the Board, all of whom are not “interested persons,” as defined in the 1940 Act, of the Trust or the Investment Adviser, unanimously approved for an annual period the continuance of the Investment Advisory and Administrative Services Agreement (the “Agreement”), which had been approved by shareholders on May 23, 2007. Both in the meeting specifically held to address the continuance of the Agreement, and at other meetings during the course of the year, the Board requested and received materials relating to services provided by the Investment Adviser under the Agreement. No single factor reviewed by the Board was identified as the principal factor in determining whether to approve the Agreement, and individual Trustees may have given different weight to various factors.

The following is a summary of the factors the Board took into consideration in making its determination to approve continuance of the Agreement. The Board reviewed these factors with its independent counsel.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services Provided by Brown Brothers Harriman’s Mutual Fund Advisory Department (the “SID”) and Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. (“BBH”)

The Board received and considered information during the in-person meeting held on December 8, 2009, and during the past year, regarding the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund by the SID and BBH. The Board noted that, under the Agreement and with respect to the Fund, the SID, subject to the supervision of the Board, is responsible for providing a continuous investment program and making purchases and sales of portfolio securities consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and policies. The Board also noted that BBH provides administrative services to the Fund.

The Board considered the scope and quality of services provided by the SID and BBH under the Agreement. The Board also considered the policies and practices that BBH follows in allocating the portfolio transactions of the Fund, including the policies and practices of the Fund and BBH regarding best execution, “soft dollars” and directed brokerage. The Board considered the scope and quality of BBH’s compliance and internal audit function. The Board also considered BBH’s capabilities in providing directly certain administrative services that had previously been provided by the Fund’s sub-administrator, including the fact that BBH currently supplies such services to other fund complexes. The Board reviewed the qualifications of the key investment personnel primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund. The Board noted that in the course of its regular meetings it received reports on each of the foregoing topics. The Board concluded that, overall, they were satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided, and expected to be provided, to the Fund under the Agreement.

Investment Results

The Board received and considered performance information for the Fund. The Board considered the investment results of the Fund as compared with one or more selected securities indices. In addition to the information received by the Board at the December 8, 2009 meeting, the Board received detailed performance information for the Fund at each regular Board meeting during the year. The Board reviewed information showing performance of the Fund over the 3-month, 1-, 3-, and 5-year periods ended October 31, 2009 and in calendar year 2008, and it compared the performance information to an appropriate securities index over comparable periods.

In their review, the Board noted that the Fund modestly underperformed the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (the “Barclays Index”) in each period. The Board acknowledged that it is difficult for a fund to replicate the performance of the Barclays Index due to the very large number of securities contained in the index and the lesser liquidity in the bond market compared to public equity markets.

Fee Rates

The Board considered the fee rate paid by the Fund to BBH in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by BBH to the Fund. The Board considered the depth and range of services provided under the Agreement, noting that BBH also coordinates the provision of services to the Fund by nonaffiliated service providers. The Board received and considered information comparing the Fund’s investment advisory and administration fees and Fund’s net total expenses with those of comparable industry averages. The Board recognized that it is difficult to make comparisons of these fee rates, or of combined advisory and administration fees, because there are variations in the services that are included in the fees paid by other funds.

Costs of Services Provided and Profitability to BBH

The Board reviewed BBH’s profitability data for the Fund for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, and for the year-earlier period. The data included the effect of revenue generated by the shareholder servicing and administration fees paid by the Fund. The Board also reviewed the allocation methods used in preparing the profitability data. In considering profitability information, the Board considered the effect of fall-out benefits on BBH’s expenses. The Board focused on profitability of BBH’s relationships with the Fund before taxes and distribution expenses. The Board concluded that BBH’s profitability was not excessive in light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund.

The Board considered other benefits received by BBH as a result of the relationship with the Fund. These other benefits include proprietary research received from brokers that execute the Fund’s purchases and sales of securities, fees received for being the Fund’s administrator, custodian and securities lending agent and shareholder servicing fees. In light of the costs of providing services pursuant to the Agreement with the Fund as well as BBH’s commitment to the Fund, the ancillary benefits that the SID and BBH received were considered reasonable.

Economies of Scale

The Board noted that the fee schedule for the Fund does not contain breakpoints. The Board observed that in the mutual fund industry as a whole, as well as among funds similar to the Fund, there appeared to be no uniformity or pattern in the fees and asset levels at which breakpoints (if any) apply. In light of the Fund’s current size and expense structure, the Board concluded that it was unnecessary at this time to consider breakpoints with respect to the Fund. The Board concluded that the fees paid by the Fund to BBH were reasonable based on the comparative performance and expense information, and the cost of the services provided and the profits to be realized by BBH.

Conflicts of Interest

Certain conflicts of interest may arise in connection with a portfolio manager’s management of the Fund’s investments, on the one hand, and the investments of other accounts for which the portfolio manager is responsible, on the other. For example, it is possible that the various accounts managed could have different investment strategies that, at times, might conflict with one another to the possible detriment of the Fund. Alternatively, to the extent that the same investment opportunities might be desirable for more than one account, possible conflicts could arise in determining how to allocate them.

Other potential conflicts might include conflicts between the Fund and its affiliated and unaffiliated service providers (e.g., conflicting duties of loyalty). In addition to providing investment management services through the Investment Adviser, BBH provides administrative, custody, fund accounting, and securities lending services to the Fund. BBH may have conflicting duties of loyalty while servicing the Fund and/or opportunities to further its own interest to the detriment of the Fund. For example, in negotiating fee arrangements with affiliated service providers, BBH may have an incentive to agree to higher fees than it would in the case of unaffiliated providers. Also, because its advisory fees are calculated by reference to the Fund’s net assets, the Investment Adviser and its affiliates may have an incentive to seek to overvalue certain assets.

The SID may direct brokerage transactions and/or payment of a portion of client commissions (“soft dollars”) to specific brokers or dealers or other providers to pay for research or brokerage services. The use of a broker that provides research and securities transaction services may result in a higher commission than that offered by a broker who does not provide such services. The Investment Adviser will determine in good faith whether the amount of commission is reasonable in relation to the value of research and brokerage services provided and whether the services provide lawful and appropriate assistance in its investment decision-making responsibilities.

Arrangements regarding compensation and delegation of responsibility may create conflicts relating to selection of brokers or dealers to execute Fund portfolio trades and/or specific uses of commissions from Fund portfolio trades, administration of investment advice and valuation of securities.

October 31, 2010 (unaudited)

BBH may enter into advisory and/or referral arrangements with third parties. Such arrangements may include compensation paid by BBH to the third party. BBH may pay a solicitation fee for referrals and/or advisory or incentive fees.

BBH, including the Investment Adviser, seeks to meet its fiduciary obligation with respect to all clients including the Fund. BBH has adopted and implemented policies and procedures that seek to manage conflicts. The Investment Adviser monitors a variety of areas, including compliance with fund investment guidelines, review of allocation decisions, the investment in only those securities within the parameters of which have been approved for purchase by an oversight committee, and compliance with the Investment Adviser’s Code of Ethics. With respect to the allocation of investment opportunities, BBH has adopted and implemented policies designed to achieve fair and equitable allocation of investment opportunities among its clients over time. BBH has structured the portfolio managers’ compensation in a manner it believes is reasonably designed to safeguard the Fund from being negatively affected as a result of any such potential conflicts.

The Trust also manages these conflicts. For example, the Fund has designated a chief compliance officer and has adopted and implemented policies and procedures designed to address the conflicts identified above and other conflicts that may arise in the course of the Fund’s operations in such a way as to safeguard the Fund from being negatively affected as a result of any such potential conflicts. The Trustees receive regular reports from the Investment Adviser and the Fund’s chief compliance officer on areas of potential conflict.

(e)(1)

Pursuant to the Registrant’s Audit Committee Charter that has been adopted by the audit committee, the audit committee shall approve all audit and permissible non-audit services to be provided to the Registrant and all permissible non-audit services to be provided to its investment adviser or any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the Registrant if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Registrant. The audit committee has delegated to its Chairman the approval of such services subject to reports to the full audit committee at its next subsequent meeting.

 

(e)(2)

The percentage of services described in each of paragraphs (b) through (d) of this Item that were approved by the audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S- X, with respect to: Audit-Related Fees were 0%; Tax Fees were 0%; and Other Fees were 0%.

 

(f)

(g)

Not applicable.

The aggregate non-audit fees billed by the Registrant's accountant for services rendered to the Registrant, and rendered to the Registrant's investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the Registrant for each of the last two fiscal years of the Registrant were $317,800 for 2010 and $120,065 for 2009.

 

(h)

The Registrant’s audit committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the Registrant’s investment adviser (not including any subadviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the Registrant that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.
