Investments in variable portfolios involve risk. Some portfolios have more risk than others. These include portfolios that allow exposure to or otherwise concentrate investments in certain sectors, geographic regions, security types, market capitalization or foreign securities (e.g., political or economic instability, which can be accentuated in Emerging Market countries). Please read the prospectus for specific details regarding its investments and risk profile.


Management Summary June 30, 2003


Scudder Aggressive Growth Portfolio

Once war concerns were out of the way in early April, investors became decidedly upbeat and moved back into the equity market, sparking a rally that continued through most of the second quarter. The portfolio posted a strong positive return for the semiannual period, returning 16.01% (Class A shares), topping its benchmarks, the Russell 3000 Growth Index, which gained 13.49% and the Standard and Poor's 500 (S&P 500) index, which returned 11.76%. Holdings in the technology and financial services sectors were the leading contributors to performance.

At the time our team assumed management of the portfolio in November 2002, we made a strategic decision to overweight technology and tactically overweight asset managers and brokers in the financial services sector. In the second quarter of 2003, both of these decisions paid off. Within financial services, for example, Neuberger Berman contributed handsomely to return. The good news in these sectors was tempered somewhat by poor performance in the portfolio's consumer discretionary holdings due to stock selection and our being underweight vs. the benchmark. We have been steadily adding to consumer discretionary to help mitigate risk going forward. In terms of positioning, we want to maintain our overweight in technology. In financial services, we plan to tactically overweight companies that we believe can benefit the most from a recovery in the equity markets. In health care, we're going to maintain an equal weighting, and, as mentioned, we're attempting to increase our consumer discretionary weighting. All in all, the portfolio's positive performers outnumbered the detractors.

The Russell 3000 Growth Index is an unmanaged capitalization-weighted index containing the growth stocks in the Russell 3000 Index. Index returns assume reinvested dividends and capital gains and do not reflect fees or expenses; investors cannot directly access an index.

The Standard & Poor's (S&P) 500 Index is a capitalization-weighted index of 500 stocks. The index is designed to measure performance of the broad domestic economy through changes in the aggregate market value of 500 stocks representing all major industries. Index returns assume reinvested dividends and capital gains and do not reflect fees or expenses; investors cannot directly access an index.


Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Returns and principal value will fluctuate so that accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Total return measures net investment income and capital gain or loss from portfolio investments over the period specified, assuming reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions. Total return reflects aggregate change. Performance is net of the portfolio's management fee and other operating expenses but does not include any deduction at the separate account or contract level for any insurance or surrender charge that may be incurred under a contract. Please see the prospectus for more details.

Portfolio management market commentary is as of June 30, 2003, and may not come to pass. This information is subject to change at any time, based on market and other conditions.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


Scudder Blue Chip Portfolio

On May 16, 2003, Janet Campagna and Robert Wang assumed the lead management duties of the portfolio. Portfolio Manager Julie Abbett, a member of the prior management team, remains with the portfolio, as does its analyst team.

Although the management team has changed, the investment process has not. Management employs intensive quantitative analysis and fundamental research to identify stocks with strong cash flows, sound balance sheets and attractive valuations, and avoids making bets on industries, investment styles or the direction of the broader market. As a result, performance is largely the result of individual stock selection.

The portfolio lagged its unmanaged benchmark, returning 8.65% (Class A shares) versus a return of 12.34% for the Russell 1000 Index during the first half of the year, as individual stock price performance often was uncorrelated with the fundamentals of the underlying companies. In the first quarter, the most significant factor affecting individual stocks was the war in Iraq. And in the second quarter, market performance was driven largely by investors' preference for fast-moving stocks that could generate strong short-term returns. As a result, the types of fundamentally sound companies in which the portfolio is invested generally trailed the market as a whole. Performance was helped by stock selection within the telecom services, insurance and transportation sectors, and was hurt by selection within the materials, retail and capital goods sectors. Management expects that the market will once again begin to trade based on fundamentals in the second half of the year, a development that would have a positive impact on the portfolio's relative performance.

Co-Managers
Deutsche Investment Management Americas Inc.

The Russell 1000 Index is an unmanaged capitalization-weighted price-only index composed of the largest-capitalized United States companies whose common stocks are traded in the US. This larger capitalization, market-oriented index is highly correlated with the S&P 500 index. Index returns assume reinvested dividends and capital gains and do not reflect fees or expenses; investors cannot directly access an index.


Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Returns and principal value will fluctuate so that accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Total return measures net investment income and capital gain or loss from portfolio investments over the period specified, assuming reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions. Total return reflects aggregate change. Performance is net of the portfolio's management fee and other operating expenses but does not include any deduction at the separate account or contract level for any insurance or surrender charge that may be incurred under a contract. Please see the prospectus for more details.

Portfolio management market commentary is as of June 30, 2003, and may not come to pass. This information is subject to change at any time, based on market and other conditions.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


Scudder Contrarian Value Portfolio

Scudder Contrarian Value Portfolio gained 12.39% (Class A shares) over the last six months, advancing more than the broad market as measured by the S&P 500 index, an unmanaged group of stocks generally representative of the US stock market. The portfolio also fared better than its Russell 1000 Value Index benchmark, which measures the performance of large companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values than the overall market, which returned 11.57%.

Our active management style and low price-to-earnings (P/E) contrarian value discipline were important drivers of performance. Financial services stocks added to gains, as did the portfolio's well-diversified group of technology stocks. A lack of telecommunications exposure also helped performance on a relative basis, as that sector remained volatile.

Declining consumer confidence and poor winter weather caused retail stocks to struggle during much of the period. However, these stocks reversed course in May and June. On a relative basis, the portfolio lost ground to its benchmark by not owning any utility stocks - a sector that posted strong performance, but whose valuations do not generally fit out investment criteria.

The portfolio comprises solid companies with projected earnings growth that is faster than the market, valuations that are lower than the market and current dividend income that is materially higher. While the market has rallied strongly over the last several months, there remains a large pool of attractively valued, quality stocks that fit within contrarian philosophy. We will continue to be diligent and attempt to improve quality further, as well as seek to enhance earnings growth and dividend yield.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


Scudder Fixed Income Portfolio

The combination of a still-struggling US economy, war with Iraq and changes to the federal funds rate resulted in a volatile bond market in the first six months of the year. Although some investors expected the Federal Reserve Board to reduce the federal funds rate by 50 basis points at its June meeting, the reduction was only 25 basis points. This reduction was the thirteenth since the beginning of 2001 and brought the federal funds rate to 1% - a level not seen since the 1950s. In this environment, the portfolio returned 4.44% (Class A shares) versus its benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, which gained 3.93%.

Our bottom-up investment strategy, including the effective selection of strong-performing securities, led to strong absolute results for the period. The portfolio's percentage of assets in corporate bonds increased over the period, as did its exposure to the lower-quality portion of the investment-grade corporate sector. This move helped boost the portfolio's results, as investors in search of higher yields favored such bonds. Additionally, the portfolio's allocation to the high-yield corporate sector, which performed extremely well, aided results. The portfolio's stake in asset-backed securities also aided results, while mortgage-backed securities were fairly flat in the period. Additionally, the portfolio's overall allocation to US Treasury bonds experienced a corresponding decline simply as a function of the increase in corporate bonds. That reduction proved timely, since Treasury, though posting positive returns, trailed other areas of the bond market.

a For the six months ended June 30, 2003 (Unaudited).
b As required, effective January 1, 2001, the Portfolio has adopted the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and began amortizing premium on debt securities. In addition, paydowns on mortgage-backed securities which were included in realized gain/loss on investment transactions prior to January 1, 2001 are included as interest income. The effect of this change for the year ended December 31, 2001 was to decrease net investment income per share by $.01, increase net realized and unrealized gains and losses per share by $.01 and decrease the ratio of net investment income to average net assets from 5.54% to 5.46%. Per share, ratios and supplemental data for periods prior to January 1, 2001 have not been restated to reflect this change in presentation.
c On June 18, 2001, the Portfolio implemented a 1 for 10 reverse stock split. Per share information, for the periods prior to December 31, 2001, has been restated to reflect the effect of the split. Shareholders received 1 share for every 10 shares owned and net asset value per share increased correspondingly.
d Based on average shares outstanding during the period.
e The amount of net realized and unrealized gain shown for a share outstanding for the period ending December 31, 2001 does not correspond with the aggregate net loss on investments for the period due to the timing of sales and repurchases of Portfolio shares in relation to fluctuating market values of the investments of the Portfolio.
f The portfolio turnover rate including mortgage dollar roll transactions was 274% for the six months ended June 30, 2003.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


Scudder Global Blue Chip Portfolio

Global equities rebounded strongly in the first half of 2003, and market analysts now believe that the US economy - the engine of global growth - is recovering. For financial markets, at least, the war in the Middle East that dominated the first quarter is now a distant memory, and geopolitical issues have faded in importance. Against this improving backdrop, Scudder Global Blue Chip Portfolio performed solidly, returning 6.70% (Class A shares) for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003. It did, however, lag the benchmark, the MSCI World Index, which returned 11.12% for the period. The performance differential is attributable to our more tempered view of global economic recovery.

The portfolio is not weighted toward those stocks most sensitive to an accommodative central bank policy, notably European insurance companies and banks. Moreover, the portfolio is not heavily weighted in stocks seen by market analysts as likely to benefit from increased capital spending on technology. Our view is that the future of the global economy is uncertain, and that even if a recovery materializes, capital spending is unlikely to lead the way while excess capacity exists. Thus, the portfolio needs to be able to participate in a recovery, while being resilient in the event of a less positive outcome.

In an effort to achieve this, we focus on the corporations with strong industry positions and financial characteristics that we believe will be the long-term survivors (rather than the weaker participants that have been driving markets recently).

MSCI World Index is an unmanaged, capitalization-weighted measure of stock markets around the world, including North America, Europe, Australia and Asia. Index returns assume reinvested dividends and capital gains and do not reflect fees or expenses; investors cannot directly access an index.


Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Returns and principal value will fluctuate so that accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Total return measures net investment income and capital gain or loss from portfolio investments over the period specified, assuming reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions. Total return reflects aggregate change. Performance is net of the portfolio's management fee and other operating expenses but does not include any deduction at the separate account or contract level for any insurance or surrender charge that may be incurred under a contract. Please see the prospectus for more details.

Portfolio management market commentary is as of June 30, 2003, and may not come to pass. This information is subject to change at any time, based on market and other conditions.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


Scudder Government Securities Portfolio

Interest rates continued to decline for most of the period as markets became convinced that the US economy was recovering more slowly than anticipated. Consumer confidence did show signs of improvement, but there was little increase in business capital spending, and the job market remained weak. In this environment, the portfolio returned 1.20% (Class A shares), slightly lagging its benchmark, the Lehman Brothers GNMA Index, which gained 1.39%.

In spite of declining interest rates and continued high levels of refinancing, GNMA securities generally performed well during the period. The portfolio's exposure to GNMAs remained relatively high, but declined slightly from the beginning of the year, reflecting our view that GNMAs are becoming fully valued. The portfolio benefited by holding a relatively higher proportion of more recently issued mortgages, which are less likely to be refinanced. The portfolio's duration decreased during the period, due to our belief that, in coming months, interest rates may experience a small increase from their current levels.

We believe current conditions in the US financial markets are supportive of economic growth. Equity markets are up and the dollar is somewhat weaker. Also businesses have put off capital spending and they will need to replace deteriorated facilities and equipment. Still, we do not expect to see a pattern of strong growth before the end of this year, and maybe not even until the second quarter. In the meantime, we expect interest rates to trade in a broad range close to their current levels.

The unmanaged Lehman Brothers GNMA Index is a market-value-weighted measure of all fixed-rate securities backed by mortgage pools of the Government National Mortgage Association. Index returns assume reinvested dividends and capital gains and do not reflect fees or expenses; investors cannot directly access an index.


Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Returns and principal value will fluctuate so that accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Total return measures net investment income and capital gain or loss from portfolio investments over the period specified, assuming reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions. Total return reflects aggregate change. Performance is net of the portfolio's management fee and other operating expenses but does not include any deduction at the separate account or contract level for any insurance or surrender charge that may be incurred under a contract. Please see the prospectus for more details.

Portfolio management market commentary is as of June 30, 2003, and may not come to pass. This information is subject to change at any time, based on market and other conditions.

(a) The cost for federal income tax purposes was $674,678,690. At June 30, 2003, net unrealized appreciation for all securities based on tax cost was $2,456,462. This consisted of aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $2,983,842 and aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $527,380.
(b) Scudder Cash Management QP Trust is also managed by Deutsche Investment Management Americas Inc. The rate shown is the annualized seven-day yield at period end.
(c) When-issued or forward delivery securities (see Notes to Financial Statements).
(d) Mortgage dollar roll included.
(e) At June 30, 2003, these securities have been segregated, in part or in whole, to cover initial margin requirements for open futures contracts.
Included in the portfolio are investments in mortgage or asset-backed securities which are interests in separate pools of mortgages or assets. Effective maturities of these investments may be shorter than stated maturities due to prepayments. Some separate investments in the Federal National Mortgage Association and the Government National Mortgage Association issues which have similar coupon rates have been aggregated for presentation purposes in the investment portfolio.

a For the six months ended June 30, 2003 (Unaudited).
b As required, effective January 1, 2001, the Portfolio has adopted the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and began amortizing premium on debt securities. In addition, paydowns on mortgage-backed securities which were included in realized gain/loss on investment transactions prior to January 1, 2001 are included as interest income. The effect of this change for the year ended December 31, 2001 was to decrease net investment income per share by $.08, increase net realized and unrealized gains and losses per share by $.08 and decrease the ratio of net investment income to average net assets from 5.67% to 5.06%. Per share, ratios and supplemental data for periods prior to January 1, 2001 have not been restated to reflect this change in presentation.
c On June 18, 2001, the Portfolio implemented a 1 for 10 reverse stock split. Per share information, for the periods prior to December 31, 2001, has been restated to reflect the effect of the split. Shareholders received 1 share for every 10 shares owned and net asset value per share increased correspondingly.

e The portfolio turnover rate including mortgage dollar roll transactions was 527% and 651% for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and the year ended December 31, 2002, respectively.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


Scudder Growth Portfolio

The portfolio (Class A shares) gained 10.23% in the semiannual period, but trailed its Russell 1000 Growth Index benchmark, which returned 13.09%. Although apprehension over the war in Iraq and uncertainty about fiscal stimulus from Congress overshadowed the investment markets for the first several months of the year, the resolution of both issues contributed to positive performance for the stock market for the full six-month period.

The portfolio's overweight in technology helped performance as the sector was bid up in anticipation of a recovering economy and, in turn, hopes for a rebound in capital spending. Many of the portfolio's technology holdings gained substantially. The fund's health care and energy stocks, while positive, lagged other market sectors. Pharmaceutical stocks weakened as the group came under pressure over concerns of pending Medicare drug reimbursement legislation. The portfolio's biotechnology names, however, posted strong returns. An overweight position in energy added to performance for the first three months of 2003. For the full six-month period, however, this defensive sector lagged the market due to crude oil and natural gas price concerns, specifically, the impact of Iraqi crude oil returning to world markets and aggressive gas storage injections. While we're disappointed with its short-term performance, we like the portfolio's energy position and believe it will return to favor.

We expect to see continued improvement in market conditions due to more economic stimulus, improving corporate profits, favorable monetary policy and, most importantly, attractive stock valuations.

Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Returns and principal value will fluctuate so that accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Total return measures net investment income and capital gain or loss from portfolio investments over the period specified, assuming reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions. Total return reflects aggregate change. Performance is net of the portfolio's management fee and other operating expenses but does not include any deduction at the separate account or contract level for any insurance or surrender charge that may be incurred under a contract.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


Scudder High Income Portfolio

High yield bonds performed very well in the first half of the year, as continued evidence of improving fundamentals prompted investors to pour cash into the market. The yield spread of the asset class (compared to Treasuries) fell to 6.76 percentage points from 9.47 at the end of 2002. Lower-quality, higher-yielding bonds generally outperformed higher-quality, lower-yielding issues over the six months. Scudder High Income Portfolio produced a strong absolute return during the first half of the year, with Class A shares returning 13.98%. In comparison, its benchmark, the CS First Boston High Yield Index, returned 17.32%. The primary reason for the portfolio's underperformance was an average underweight in lower-quality securities, coupled with an underweight in the utility and US cable sectors.

We hold a positive view on high yield even after its significant rally, and believe that high yield will likely outperform given a lower probability of a "double-dip" recession, defaults continuing to decline, and corporations taking steps to improve their financial health. Given our more positive outlook for the asset class as a whole, we have moved to become modestly more aggressive, continuing to add to B- and CCC-rated companies that we believe offer good relative value. However, at the close of the period, the portfolio remained underweight in the CC/defaulted segment of the market, as this segment's risk-adjusted performance has not been attractive versus the market on a historical basis. Diversification remains essential as a means to mitigate risk.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


Scudder International Select Equity Portfolio

International equities rebounded strongly in the first half of 2003, and market analysts now believe that the US economy - the engine of global growth - is recovering. For financial markets, at least, the war in the Middle East that dominated the first quarter is now a distant memory, and geopolitical issues have faded in importance. Against this improving backdrop, Scudder International Select Equity Portfolio returned 4.07% (Class A shares) for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003, lagging the benchmark, the MSCI EAFE + EMF Index, which returned 10.42% for the period. The underperformance for the period stems primarily from dramatic underperformance by a handful of our holdings within the financials and consumer discretionary sectors.

We remained underweight in financials during the period, which in itself did not cost us, but stock selection was poor. Some financials holdings were impacted by Ahold contagion (Ahold, which was not a portfolio holding as of June 30, 2003, announced it had overstated earnings and is now under investigation by the SEC). News of dividend cuts and negative earnings reports also weighed on select financials and consumer discretionary positions. Not all financials holdings detracted from performance. For example, Royal Bank of Scotland was a strong contributor. The company continued to be very cash generative and continues to deliver resilient growth numbers. Finally, select telecommunications holdings such as Vodafone and Telefonica also contributed to performance.

The MSCI EAFE + EMF Index (Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East and Emerging Markets Free Index) is an unmanaged index generally accepted as a benchmark for major overseas markets plus emerging markets. Index returns assume reinvested dividends and capital gains and do not reflect fees or expenses; investors cannot directly access in an index.


Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Returns and principal value will fluctuate so that accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Total return measures net investment income and capital gain or loss from portfolio investments over the period specified, assuming reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions. Total return reflects aggregate change. Performance is net of the portfolio's management fee and other operating expenses but does not include any deduction at the separate account or contract level for any insurance or surrender charge that may be incurred under a contract. Please see the prospectus for more details.

Portfolio management market commentary is as of June 30, 2003, and may not come to pass. This information is subject to change at any time, based on market and other conditions.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


Scudder Money Market Portfolio

In the first half of the year, US economic activity was extremely subdued as the country and the world focused on the war with Iraq. Once the conclusion to the war became more apparent, consumer sentiment turned up, and hopes for economic recovery in the second half of 2003 or early 2004 were rekindled. In order to spur growth in the economy and minimize deflationary risks, it appeared that the Federal Reserve Board would lower its target interest rates again.

As the Fed's June meeting approached, the markets priced in a 50-basis-point cut, which we believed to be too aggressive. As a result, we built up a significant cash position and purchased both one-month securities and callable agency securities. In late June, the Fed decided to ease by 25 basis points, and the yields of all but the shortest-maturity money market securities rose sharply, enabling us to lock up higher yields for the fund. Going forward, we will continue our insistence on the highest credit quality. We also plan to maintain our conservative investment strategies.

A group of investment professionals is responsible for the day-to-day management of the portfolio. These investment professionals have a broad range of experience managing money market funds.

Deutsche Investment Management Americas Inc.

An investment in the Scudder Money Market Portfolio is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the portfolio seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per unit, it is possible to lose money by investing in the portfolio.


Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Returns and principal value will fluctuate so that accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Total return measures net investment income and capital gain or loss from portfolio investments over the period specified, assuming reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions. Total return reflects aggregate change. Performance is net of the portfolio's management fee and other operating expenses but does not include any deduction at the separate account or contract level for any insurance or surrender charge that may be incurred under a contract. Please see the prospectus for more details.

Portfolio management market commentary is as of June 30, 2003, and may not come to pass. This information is subject to change at any time, based on market and other conditions.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


Scudder Small Cap Growth Portfolio

Historically, coming out of market recessions, it's the small- and mid-cap stocks that lead the way. This proved to be the case in the second quarter, as mid-cap stocks outperformed the large-cap segment.

The portfolio (Class A shares) posted a strong positive return of 17.12% for the semiannual period, though it underperformed its benchmark, the Russell 2000 Growth Index, which gained 19.33%. The portfolio's underperformance was strictly due to its underweight in the consumer discretionary sector. Consumer discretionary includes industries such as retailing and media. During the period, we began to add back to this weighting in an effort to get closer to the benchmark - we just didn't get there fast enough.

On the positive side, the portfolio's consumer staples holdings, which include food and restaurant companies, provided good returns. The portfolio also outperformed in technology thanks to stock selection and being overweight versus the benchmark. Stock selection in health care also contributed to the portfolio's outperformance relative to the benchmark. For example, Caremark Rx, a prescription benefits processor, did well during the second quarter.

In terms of positioning, we want to maintain our overweight in technology. In financial services, we plan to tactically overweight companies that we believe can benefit the most from a recovery in the equity markets. In health care, we're going to maintain an equal weighting, and, as mentioned, we're attempting to increase the consumer discretionary weighting. All in all, the fund's positive performers outnumbered the detractors.

The Russell 2000 Growth Index is an unmanaged index (with no defined investment objective) of those securities in the Russell 2000 Index with a greater-than-average growth orientation. Index returns assume reinvested dividends and capital gains and do not reflect fees or expenses; investors cannot directly access an index.


Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Returns and principal value will fluctuate so that accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Total return measures net investment income and capital gain or loss from portfolio investments over the period specified, assuming reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions. Total return reflects aggregate change. Performance is net of the portfolio's management fee and other operating expenses but does not include any deduction at the separate account or contract level for any insurance or surrender charge that may be incurred under a contract. Please see the prospectus for more details.

Portfolio management market commentary is as of June 30, 2003, and may not come to pass. This information is subject to change at any time, based on market and other conditions.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


Scudder Strategic Income Portfolio

Historically low US interest rates, good performance by emerging markets and a rally by the euro contributed to strong portfolio performance for the reporting period. Also, we added high-yield bonds to the portfolio during the period. This added to returns as the high-yield market benefited from early signs of economic recovery in the US. In this environment, the portfolio (Class A shares) returned 6.66% versus 17.24% for its benchmark, the US High Yield Master Cash Pay Only Index.

Emerging markets began the year on a strong note, partly because of Brazil. The new government's prudent fiscal and political decisions helped attract investment. Meanwhile, an environment of relatively stable oil prices helped exporters, including Russia. In the past few months, however, some of these markets faced new challenges. In Brazil, the government found it hard to get important pension-reform proposals passed into law. And, a fiscal stimulus package that Turkey expected from the International Monetary Fund was greatly reduced after the Turkish government refused to let the US use Turkey as a staging area for the invasion of Iraq.

Given this environment, and the possibility that emerging markets may become less attractive as developed-market economies recover, we are looking for opportunities to further diversify the portfolio, with investments in Venezuela, for instance. Also, as noted, we added high-yield bonds to the portfolio.

US High Yield Master Cash Pay Only Index tracks the performance of below investment grade US dollar-denominated corporate bonds publicly issued in the US domestic market. Index returns assume reinvested dividends and capital gains and do not reflect fees or expenses; investors cannot directly access an index.


Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Returns and principal value will fluctuate so that accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Total return measures net investment income and capital gain or loss from portfolio investments over the period specified, assuming reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions. Total return reflects aggregate change. Performance is net of the portfolio's management fee and other operating expenses but does not include any deduction at the separate account or contract level for any insurance or surrender charge that may be incurred under a contract. Please see the prospectus for more details.

a For the six months ended June 30, 2003 (Unaudited).
b As required, effective January 1, 2001, the Portfolio has adopted the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and began amortizing premium on debt securities. In addition, paydowns on mortgage-backed securities which were included in realized gain/loss on investment transactions prior to January 1, 2001 are included as interest income. The effect of this change for the year ended December 31, 2001 was to decrease net investment income per share by $.04, increase net realized and unrealized gains and losses per share by $.04 and decrease the ratio of net investment income to average net assets from 5.16% to 4.76%. Per share, ratios and supplemental data for periods prior to January 1, 2001 have not been restated to reflect this change in presentation.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


Scudder Technology Growth Portfolio

Scudder Technology Growth Portfolio (Class A shares) rose 18.24% during the first half of the year, outpacing its primary benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index, which returned 13.09%, though slightly lagging its secondary index, the Goldman Sachs Technology Total Return Index, which gained 21.83%. The portfolio's underperformance compared with the latter index was due to its underweight exposure to communications equipment companies, which performed strongly during the second quarter after raising extra capital to reduce their debt and beating gross margin targets through cost cutting. In addition, these stocks performed strongly based on speculation that contracts issued by the regional Bell operating companies and the federal government to upgrade voice and data infrastructure may signal the start of a recovery in the equipment area. The portfolio's performance was helped by holdings in the electronic storage industry. Overweights in eBay and Yahoo, two Internet companies, also provided a solid contribution.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


Scudder Total Return Portfolio

The US stock market posted strong returns in the first half of 2003, thanks in part to the resolution of the war with Iraq, a $350 billion fiscal stimulus package from Congress and continued low interest rates. The stock market was led by strong performance in high beta technology, telecommunications and utility stocks. The bond market was led by strong performance in corporate bonds and mortgages. The portfolio's stock and bond portfolios both gained substantial ground in the period, with the portfolio (Class A shares) returning 9.13% versus its benchmarks, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, which gained 3.93%, and the Standard and Poor's 500 (S&P 500) index, which returned 11.76%.

The stock portfolio benefited from strong returns in its biotechnology and information technology stocks. As consumer confidence improved, the portfolio's overweight in consumer discretionary stocks added to returns. An underweight position in consumer staples also helped relative performance as this area lagged the overall market. The stock portfolio was held back by its energy overweight. This defensive sector lagged the market due to crude oil and natural gas price concerns, specifically, the impact of Iraqi crude oil returning to world markets and aggressive gas storage injections. While we're disappointed with the short-term performance, we like the portfolio's energy position and believe it will perform well going forward. We don't own any utility stocks because they don't reconcile well with our growth investment discipline. Our lack of such holdings hurt this period, as utility stocks were some of the market's leaders.

The income managers continued to trim Treasuries in favor of corporate bonds and mortgages. As of June 30, 2003, the portfolio's allocation was at about 60% stocks and 40% bonds. This represents a neutral posture and reflects our belief that the US economy and stock market are on the road to a gradual recovery.

a For the six months ended June 30, 2003 (Unaudited).
b As required, effective January 1, 2001, the Portfolio adopted the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and began amortizing premium on debt securities. In addition, paydowns on mortgage-backed securities which were included in realized gain/loss on investment transactions prior to January 1, 2001 were included as interest income. The effect of this change for the year ended December 31, 2001 was to decrease net investment income per share by $.03, increase net realized and unrealized gains and losses per share by $.03 and decrease the ratio of net investment income to average net assets from 2.76% to 2.63%. Per share, ratios and supplemental data for periods prior to January 1, 2001 were not restated to reflect this change in presentation.
c On June 18, 2001, the Portfolio implemented a 1 for 10 reverse stock split. Per share information, for the periods prior to December 31, 2001, has been restated to reflect the effect of the split. Shareholders received 1 share for every 10 shares owned and net asset value per share increased correspondingly.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


SVS Davis Venture Value Portfolio

For the six months ending June 30, 2003, the SVS Davis Venture Value Portfolio (Class A shares) returned 11.58%, in line with its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index, which returned 11.57%.

In regards to allocation by sector, the portfolio maintained significant weightings at quarter end in financials, consumer staples, consumer discretionary and industrials. American Express, Wells Fargo, Citigroup, Altria Group, Costco Wholesale and Tyco were among the larger holdings in the portfolio, all of which contributed to performance during the first half of 2003.

American International Group (AIG) slightly detracted from performance during the period. AIG's shares declined on an unanticipated increase in reserves early in the year. We believed that the "extraordinary reserve adjustment" was the result of exceptional loss experience as opposed to mismanagement and that AIG's management had taken appropriate action by raising rates in the relevant product areas. During the first quarter, we took advantage of this decline to add to our position and were rewarded as AIG's shares were up in the second quarter.

Regarding our outlook, we anticipate that the US stock market will remain in a trading range for a number of years and believe that stock selection will be the key to generating above-average performance. We feel confident that the businesses we have chosen for the portfolio have the ability to grow shareholder value over time, given their strong balance sheets, competitive business models and above-average management teams.

In this report Davis Selected Advisors makes candid statements and observations regarding economic and market conditions; however, there is no guarantee that these statements, opinions or forecasts will prove to be correct. All investments involve some degree of risk, and there can be no assurance that the investment strategies will be successful. Market values will vary so that an investor may experience a gain or a loss.

Russell 1000 Value Index is an unmanaged index, which consists of those stocks in the Russell 1000 Index with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted-growth values. Index returns assume reinvested dividends and capital gains and do not reflect fees or expenses; investors cannot directly access an index.


Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Returns and principal value will fluctuate so that accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Total return measures net investment income and capital gain or loss from portfolio investments over the period specified, assuming reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions. Total return reflects aggregate change. Performance is net of the portfolio's management fee and other operating expenses but does not include any deduction at the separate account or contract level for any insurance or surrender charge that may be incurred under a contract. Please see the prospectus for more details.

Portfolio management market commentary is as of June 30, 2003, and may not come to pass. This information is subject to change at any time, based on market and other conditions.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


SVS Dreman Financial Services Portfolio

Financial stocks gained ground during the period, keeping pace with the broader stock market. The portfolio (Class A shares) gained 11.30% and outperformed its benchmark, the Standard & Poor's Financial Index, a gauge of performance for the financial companies within the S&P 500 index, which returned 11.13%.

While the portfolio's defensive structure helped it outperform the benchmark in the first quarter, it was also responsible for underperforming it in the second quarter. As investors gained confidence, they favored more speculative stocks - consumer finance and investment banking stocks. Both are areas where the portfolio intentionally has almost no exposure. We are open to opportunities in those areas. However, we're uncertain that the current economy will continue to buoy consumer spending or merger and acquisition activity.

Top-10 holding Freddie Mac lost ground in the six-month period. In June, the company's board of directors dismissed three senior leaders after learning that the company's earnings had been understated. The stock declined on the news but since then, it has begun to make up lost ground. We believe this is a short-term issue and we remain committed to the stock, which has a lower price-to-earnings ratio and faster growth rate than many top-growth companies. Bank stocks, particularly the portfolio's large position in regional banks, helped performance. Money center banks also held up well.

Despite recent gains, many solid financial stocks are trading at levels that we believe are well below their true market value, which provides solid opportunities for our style.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


SVS Dreman High Return Equity Portfolio

The stock market posted strong gains for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Stocks rallied on the successful outcome of the war with Iraq, the passage of a federal stimulus package and improving economic news. We're pleased to announce that the portfolio (Class A shares) gained 13.45% and outperformed its benchmark, the Standard & Poor's 500 index, which returned 11.76%, in the semiannual period.

Financials, retailers and tobacco stocks were the most significant contributors to performance, but nearly every portfolio sector gained. In financials, the portfolio benefited from an overweight position and strong performance from its bank stocks and some of its diversified financial stocks. A few distressed retailers in the portfolio more than doubled in price. Finally, despite some extreme volatility, Altria Group, the parent company of tobacco producer Philip Morris, rallied when a Florida court dismissed a class action lawsuit against the tobacco companies. Pharmaceutical companies struggled, and the portfolio's overweight position hurt its relative performance. We remain confident, however, that these companies will improve over the longer term. Each has strong cash flows to fund research and development, capable marketing arms and large sales forces to drive earnings.

We expect slow to moderate economic growth over the next several years and believe that value stocks will continue to outperform growth stocks. This environment should continue to offer contrarian investors, like us, good investment opportunities.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


SVS Dreman Small Cap Value Portfolio

Despite a sluggish start, the stock market ended the six-month period with strong gains. A successful outcome of the war with Iraq, improving corporate earnings and the passage of a tax stimulus package led to renewed investor enthusiasm and higher stock prices. The portfolio (Class A shares) gained 15.07% in the period, but lagged the 16.49% return of its benchmark, the Russell 2000 Value Index.

The portfolio was helped by its independent power producer stocks, which rallied strongly during the period. An overweight position in banks vs. the Russell 2000 Value benchmark and strong individual financial stock performance also helped. Energy stocks contributed, with natural gas producers advancing solidly. The portfolio was held back by a decline in its health care sector. While most of the portfolio's health care stocks performed in line with the broad market, one issue declined significantly, and we removed it from the portfolio early in the period as soon as issues with its management surfaced.

We have built a portfolio focused on companies that we believe are financially solid but that are trading at low prices relative to their earnings (P/E), book value and cash flow. In anything other than a technology-led market rally, we believe this portfolio is poised to outperform its benchmark.

The Russell 2000 Value Index measures the performance of small companies with lower price to book ratios and lower forecasted growth values than the overall market. Index returns assume reinvested dividends and capital gains and do not reflect fees and expenses; investors cannot directly access an index.


Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Returns and principal value will fluctuate so that accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Total return measures net investment income and capital gain or loss from portfolio investments over the period specified, assuming reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions. Total return reflects aggregate change. Performance is net of the portfolio's management fee and other operating expenses but does not include any deduction at the separate account or contract level for any insurance or surrender charge that may be incurred under a contract. Please see the prospectus for more details.

Portfolio management market commentary is as of June 30, 2003, and may not come to pass. This information is subject to change at any time, based on market and other conditions.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


SVS Eagle Focused Large Cap Growth Portfolio

For the first half of 2003 the portfolio was up 11.73% (Class A shares), while its benchmark Russell 1000 Growth Index was up 13.09%. The portfolio outperformed its benchmark on a relative basis in the consumer discretionary and financial services sectors, but underperformed in the technology and health care sectors.

Performance in the consumer discretionary sector was boosted by strong returns in Home Depot, Carnival and media names Clear Channel Communications and Walt Disney. But poor relative performance in defensive consumer staples holdings offset some of these gains as investors rotated into higher beta sectors. American Express, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs and Lehman Brothers were positive contributors in the financial services sector.

Technology holdings outperforming included Cisco, Intel and Dell, while Microsoft declined. It appears that the technology industry's top players are increasing spending to position themselves for an uptick in demand. Our relative underperformance in the health care sector resulted from gains in pharmaceutical holdings Pfizer, Merck and Baxter being offset by losses in Johnson & Johnson and Genentech. We continue to be positive on the pharmaceutical group as these stocks are attractively priced and are expected to benefit from the proposed Medicare Prescription Drug Benefit.

Going forward, the lower cost of capital is expected to spur investment in capital equipment by businesses generally. Once business investment improves, the overall economy should benefit. Corporate profits will likely follow, especially after three years of cutting capacity, reducing inventories, increasing productivity, adjusting balance sheets and lowering expectations. As corporate profit growth improves, we believe equity prices should follow.

The Russell 1000 Growth Index is an unmanaged index composed of common stocks of larger US companies with greater-than-average growth orientation and represents the universe of stocks from which "earnings/growth" money managers typically select. Index returns assume reinvested dividends and capital gains and do not reflect fees and expenses; investors cannot directly access an index.


Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Returns and principal value will fluctuate so that accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Total return measures net investment income and capital gain or loss from portfolio investments over the period specified, assuming reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions. Total return reflects aggregate change. Performance is net of the portfolio's management fee and other operating expenses but does not include any deduction at the separate account or contract level for any insurance or surrender charge that may be incurred under a contract. Please see the prospectus for more details.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


SVS Focus Value+Growth Portfolio

The portfolio (Class A shares) gained 12.78% in the semiannual period and outperformed its benchmark, the S&P 500 index, which returned 11.76%. The broader market and the portfolio have benefited from a post-war rally that allowed investors to focus more on improving economic and market fundamentals rather than on headlines.

The holdings in the value portion of the portfolio gained, helped mostly by the portfolio's financial, retail and tobacco stocks. Within the financial sector, performance of banks and savings and loans was strong, while performance of diversified financial stocks came under temporary pressure. A couple of the sleeve's retailers more than doubled in price. Despite volatility early in the period, Altria Group, the parent company of tobacco producer Philip Morris USA, rallied when a Florida court dismissed a class-action lawsuit against the tobacco companies. The pharmaceutical companies lagged, but Dreman, the portfolio's value subadvisor, believes that the recent setback is temporary.

Information technology and energy holdings in the growth portion of the portfolio contributed most to absolute performance. Information technology and consumer discretionary stocks represent two of the larger positions. Semiconductor stocks have performed exceptionally well as many companies have improved their competitive position by reducing costs. The managers expect that demand for semiconductors will rise due to lean inventory levels within the tech sector. Holdings in more defensive areas such as industrials and consumer staples represent smaller positions. Select holdings within the consumer staples and consumer discretionary areas held back performance.

Both management teams believe that the economy has begun to recover and expect moderate improvement over the course of the year.

Index returns assume reinvested dividends and capital gains and do not reflect fees and expenses; investors cannot directly access an index.


Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Returns and principal value will fluctuate so that accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Total return measures net investment income and capital gain or loss from portfolio investments over the period specified, assuming reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions. Total return reflects aggregate change.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


SVS Index 500 Portfolio

SVS Index 500 Portfolio provided strong positive performance, though it slightly underperformed its benchmark, the Standard & Poor's 500 (S&P 500) index , for the six months ended June 30, 2003. In a welcome turnabout from the past three years, US equities gained ground for the six-month period. During the second quarter, the S&P 500 index was up 15.39%, marking the largest single quarterly gain for the index in four and a half years.

For the six months, sector performance within the S&P 500 index was positive across the board. Financials, information technology and consumer discretionary were the best-performing sectors. Telecommunications services, materials and consumer staples were the worst-performing sectors for the semiannual period. The financials sector continued to be the largest weight within the S&P 500 index through the period, accounting at June 30, 2003 for 20.1% of the index's market capitalization. However, the biggest changes in weighting within the index during the first half of the year came from the consumer staples, information technology and utilities sectors, which each grew in weighting, and from the consumer discretionary, industrials and telecommunication services sectors, which each declined in index weighting.

The best semiannual returns among the S&P 500 index stocks came from General Electric, Citigroup and Intel. The worst-performing individual stocks based on total return were AIG, SBC Communications and AT&T.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


SVS INVESCO Dynamic Growth Portfolio

During the first three months of the year, stocks struggled and war-wary investors stuck to the sidelines. However, in the second quarter, a sharp rally ensued, fueled in part by a swifter-than-expected conclusion to the war in Iraq, Congress's passage of a tax relief package, and extremely low interest rates. Thanks to this turnaround in the second quarter, all of the major stock market indexes finished the semiannual period significantly higher.

Given the market's renewed appetite for more aggressive investments as the period progressed, SVS INVESCO Dynamic Growth Portfolio's emphasis on mid-cap growth stocks worked to its advantage. Indeed, the portfolio enjoyed a substantial gain of 15.13% (Class A shares) during the first half of 2003, versus an 18.74% return for its benchmark, the Russell Midcap Growth Index. While every market sector represented in the portfolio advanced, some areas were especially beneficial to performance. For example, the portfolio's wireless telecommunication services stocks demonstrated positive fundamental trends throughout the period, which aided their returns. Holdings in market-sensitive financial names and biotechnology stocks also outperformed.

Our technology holdings produced mixed results. On the one hand, the portfolio's software, communications equipment and Internet holdings all posted impressive gains. On the other hand, the portfolio's tech stocks failed to keep pace with their Russell Midcap Growth Index counterparts, which had a negative effect in terms of relative performance.

Looking ahead, we are confident the business environment will improve in the second half, and believe the portfolio is well-positioned should market conditions remain favorable.

Timothy J. Miller
Lead Manager
INVESCO, Subadvisor to the Portfolio

Russell Midcap Growth Index is an unmanaged index composed of common stocks of mid-cap companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values. Index returns assume reinvested dividends and capital gains and do not reflect fees or expenses; investors cannot directly access an index.


Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Returns and principal value will fluctuate so that accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Total return measures net investment income and capital gain or loss from portfolio investments over the period specified, assuming reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions. Total return reflects aggregate change. Performance is net of the portfolio's management fee and other operating expenses but does not include any deduction at the separate account or contract level for any insurance or surrender charge that may be incurred under a contract. Please see the prospectus for more details.

Portfolio management market commentary is as of June 30, 2003, and may not come to pass. This information is subject to change at any time, based on market and other conditions.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


SVS Janus Growth and Income Portfolio

For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the portfolio gained 9.21% (Class A shares), while the S&P 500 index gained 11.76%.

All three major stock market indices ended the period in positive territory, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average gaining 9.02%, the broad-based Standard & Poor's 500 index adding 11.76%, and the growth-oriented NASDAQ Composite Index climbing 21.51% for the six months. Although the indices performed solidly, most stocks struggled at the start of the year amid a slowing economic recovery and a looming war with Iraq. Hostilities began in mid-March and the market bounced back, followed by a rebound in consumer confidence, which had plunged to nine-year lows. Activity in the manufacturing and services sectors continued to produce mixed results, providing little in the way of clarity about the future direction of the economy as a whole. Meanwhile, the housing market remained robust, but unemployment inched higher as job growth remained elusive. Against this backdrop, the Federal Reserve cut short-term interest rates by 0.25%, stating the economy had grown at a "sub par" pace following the end to the war in Iraq.

The single biggest detractor from performance during the period was our position in tool maker Stanley Works. Meanwhile, property and casualty insurance specialist American International Group also declined, emerging as the second largest detractor from our results. Defense contractor General Dynamics, computerized transaction processor Automatic Data Processing and telecommunications provider SBC Communications rounded out our list of disappointments.

On the positive side, financial services giant Citigroup - one of our largest positions - was also our biggest contributor to performance. Three media companies, including cable and content specialist Liberty Media, interactive media company InterActiveCorp (formerly USA Interactive) and cable provider Comcast Corp. were also among our top performers. Canadian oil and gas producer Encana Corp. ranked fifth among our positive contributors.

On an absolute basis, the consumer discretionary and financial services sectors were our biggest positive contributors to performance. Both sectors represented a substantial portion of the portfolio's assets. Meanwhile, our much more modest exposure to the telecommunications services sector emerged as our only detractor from performance during the period as our lone position in the sector declined. Materials, where we also held a relatively small exposure, held back results while nonetheless providing a small positive contribution to results.

Declines by several individual technology stocks, together with our relative underweighting of this top-performing sector, caused information technology to rank as our worst-performing sector on a relative basis even as the sector contributed positively to absolute performance. Industrial stocks, an area in which we were slightly underweight relative to our benchmark, also held back performance as stocks such as General Dynamics and Automatic Data Processing - both of which are discussed above - worked against us. Meanwhile, our underweighting of consumer staples stocks - a poorly performing sector for the index - worked in our favor. Several individual stock picks in the sector also aided performance. Meanwhile, Citigroup's strong performance added to the favorable returns earned by several other financial stocks in the portfolio to lift the financial services sector to our second-best performing group overall when viewed on a relative basis. Consumer discretionary stocks, which represent the single largest exposure in the Portfolio, contributed significantly to our absolute returns but only modestly to our relative results.

Lead Manager, Janus Capital Management LLC, Subadvisor to the Portfolio

The Standard & Poor's 500 (S&P 500) index is a capitalization-weighted index of 500 stocks. The index is designed to measure performance of the broad domestic economy through changes in the aggregate market value of 500 stocks representing all major industries. Index returns assume reinvested dividends and capital gains and do not reflect fees or expenses; investors cannot directly access an index.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average is an unmanaged index of common stocks comprised of major industrial companies. NASDAQ Composite Index is an unmanaged brand-based capitalization-weighted index of all NASDAQ National Market and Small Cap stocks.

Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Returns and principal value will fluctuate so that accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Total return measures net investment income and capital gain or loss from portfolio investments over the period specified, assuming reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions. Total return reflects aggregate change. Performance is net of the portfolio's management fee and other operating expenses but does not include any deduction at the separate account or contract level for any insurance or surrender charge that may be incurred under a contract. Please see the prospectus for more details.

b As required, effective January 1, 2001, the Portfolio has adopted the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and began amortizing premium on debt securities.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


SVS Janus Growth Opportunities Portfolio

For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the portfolio gained 11.56% (Class A shares), while the S&P 500 index gained 11.76%.

All three major stock market indices ended the period in positive territory, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average gaining 9.02%, the broad-based Standard & Poor's 500 index adding 11.76%, and the growth-oriented NASDAQ Composite Index climbing 21.51% for the six months. Although the indices performed solidly, most stocks struggled at the start of the year amid a slowing economic recovery and a looming war with Iraq. Hostilities began in mid-March and the market bounced back, followed by a rebound in consumer confidence, which had plunged to nine-year lows. Activity in the manufacturing and services sectors continued to produce mixed results, providing little in the way of clarity about the future direction of the economy as a whole. Meanwhile, the housing market remained robust, but unemployment inched higher as job growth remained elusive. Against this backdrop, the Federal Reserve cut short-term interest rates by 0.25%, stating the economy had grown at a "sub-par" pace following the end to the war in Iraq.

The largest single detractor from performance was our position in payroll processor Automatic Data Processing. Also hurting our results was defense contractor General Dynamics (sold during the period). Other significant detractors were Anadarko Petroleum Corporation, an oil and gas exploration and production company, and mobile phone technology company Qualcomm (sold during the period). Our shares in financial services company Charles Schwab also declined during the period and subsequently detracted from the portfolio's return.

Topping our list of strong performers was our position in biotechnology company Genentech, which appreciated substantially during the period and contributed significantly to the portfolio's results. Media concern Liberty Media also helped us, as did Amgen, a global biotechnology company. Interactive entertainment software maker Electronic Arts was yet another positive contributor. Rounding out our list of top performers was VERITAS Software Corporation, a supplier of storage software products and services.

On an absolute basis the information technology and health care groups were our biggest positive contributors. A substantial portion of the portfolio's total assets under management were invested in both of these sectors during the period. The only area that detracted from the portfolio's absolute results was the industrials sector, which was a fairly small weighting in the portfolio. Although our modest exposure to energy stocks contributed a small gain to our absolute results, it, too, was among our weaker-performing sectors.

As a group, our health care stocks were also the single biggest contributors to the portfolio's relative performance. Although our exposure to the sector was very close to that of the S&P 500 index, individual stock picks significantly aided our results. Meanwhile, strong performance by individual stocks, as well as our underweight position in consumer staples, also worked in our favor. By contrast, select holdings and an overweighting in consumer discretionary stocks hurt our relative results. Our relative performance was also held back by our overweight position in energy stocks, a sector that lagged the overall market, as well as poor stock selection within this group.

Lead Manager, Janus Capital Management LLC, Subadvisor to the Portfolio

The Standard & Poor's (S&P) 500 index is a capitalization-weighted index of 500 stocks. The index is designed to measure performance of the broad domestic economy through changes in the aggregate market value of 500 stocks representing all major industries. Index returns assume reinvested dividends and capital gains and do not reflect fees or expenses; investors cannot directly access an index.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average is an unmanaged index of common stocks comprised of major industrial companies. NASDAQ Composite Index is an unmanaged brand-based capitalization-weighted index of all NASDAQ National Market and Small Cap stocks.

Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Returns and principal value will fluctuate so that accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Total return measures net investment income and capital gain or loss from portfolio investments over the period specified, assuming reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions. Total return reflects aggregate change. Performance is net of the portfolio's management fee and other operating expenses but does not include any deduction at the separate account or contract level for any insurance or surrender charge that may be incurred under a contract. Please see the prospectus for more details.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


SVS MFS Strategic Value Portfolio

For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the portfolio provided a total return of 13.37% (Class A shares). This compares to returns of 11.57% over the same period for the portfolio's benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index, which measures the performance of large-cap US value stocks.

The portfolio benefited most from its stock selection and its overweight position relative to its benchmark in three main sectors: utilities, communications and retailing.

In the utilities sector, the portfolio got strong returns from its position in Calpine Corp., a company that owns power-generating plants, acts as a power merchant and owns several natural gas fields. The portfolio was also aided by its position in AT&T Wireless Services. The portfolio held positions in several retailing stocks that also aided its overall performance. Among these were Sears, Roebuck & Co. and Home Depot.

The main sectors that detracted from the performance of the portfolio were health care, technology and financial services. Despite the relative underperformance of these sectors, all three contributed positive overall returns to the portfolio over the period.

In the technology sector, our positions in companies such as Microsoft and Network Associates lowered the portfolio's overall positive performance. Our leading negative contributor to the portfolio relative to the benchmark was our position in Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac).

Russell 1000 Value Index is an unmanaged index, which consists of those stocks in the Russell 1000 Index with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted-growth values. Index returns assume reinvested dividends and capital gains and do not reflect fees or expenses; investors cannot directly access an index.


Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Returns and principal value will fluctuate so that accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Total return measures net investment income and capital gain or loss from portfolio investments over the period specified, assuming reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions. Total return reflects aggregate change. Performance is net of the portfolio's management fee and other operating expenses but does not include any deduction at the separate account or contract level for any insurance or surrender charge that may be incurred under a contract.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


SVS Oak Strategic Equity Portfolio

Looking Back

Oak's portfolio continued to outperform in what proved to be a strong second quarter for the SVS Strategic Equity Portfolio. The portfolio gained 21.40% (Class A shares) during the period, outperforming its benchmarks, the Standard & Poor's 500 (S&P 500) index, which gained 11.76%, and the Russell 1000 Growth Index, which climbed 13.09%. Conclusion to the Iraq war, improving consumer confidence, lower interest rates and positive first quarter earnings reports worked together to set a positive tone. Investors are choosing to focus on the future, overlooking the negatives of the recent past. Unlike 2002, investors have not been as swayed by negative news stories about Martha Stewart and accounting irregularities at IBM and Freddie Mac.

The technology sector led the charge in the second quarter, with notable surges in the networking, storage and software subsectors, where gains of more than 35% were posted. Improving profit margins, stabilizing fundamentals and encouraging economic data contributed to investor appetite for the sector. Our financial services holdings also generated market-beating results. Market-sensitive names led the pack, supported by improving trading volumes and credit quality trends. Health care posted positive results, but slightly lagged the S&P 500 index, which has been typical in prior market recoveries.

Looking Forward

Our outlook remains positive. We believe we are in the early stages of a renewed bull market that will sustain its gains through year-end and beyond, similar to what occurred in the early 1990s. While recent gains have been driven to a certain extent by a "rush to get back in," a healthy amount of market skepticism remains. Valuations are favorable, particularly against the backdrop of declining interest rates and continued fiscal and monetary stimulus. Three years of belt-tightening have introduced considerable leverage into the financial models of most corporations. As sentiment improves, we expect capital spending to resume, resulting in sizeable improvements in the profit picture - the ultimate long-term driver of stock prices. Even the telecommunications sector - which some say accounts for over 40% of all IT spending - is showing signs of life. While there will be fits and starts in the market, we believe the overall trend is biased to the upside.

The Russell 1000 Growth Index is an unmanaged group of stocks with greater-than-average growth orientation compared with the overall market. Index returns assume reinvested dividends and capital gains and do not reflect fees or expenses; investors cannot directly access an index.

The Standard & Poor's (S&P) 500 Index is a capitalization-weighted index of 500 stocks. The index is designed to measure performance of the broad domestic economy through changes in the aggregate market value of 500 stocks representing all major industries. Index returns assume reinvested dividends and capital gains and do not reflect fees or expenses; investors cannot directly access an index.


Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Returns and principal value will fluctuate so that accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Total return measures net investment income and capital gain or loss from portfolio investments over the period specified, assuming reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions. Total return reflects aggregate change. Performance is net of the portfolio's management fee and other operating expenses but does not include any deduction at the separate account or contract level for any insurance or surrender charge that may be incurred under a contract.

Management Summary June 30, 2003


SVS Turner Mid Cap Growth Portfolio

For the first half of 2003 the SVS Turner Mid Cap Growth Portfolio (Class A shares) returned 20.57% versus 18.74% for the Russell Mid Cap Growth Index.

The first quarter of 2003 was marked by wide fluctuations. Growing war concerns put downward pressure on the market the first two months, followed by a quick upswing at the start of the war. Unfortunately, concerns over a long and difficult involvement overseas quickly took back most of the gains. The second quarter of 2003 showed market sentiment swinging back towards optimism. Stocks posted their strongest gains since 1998. Every major market index experienced double-digit gains, and geopolitical concerns began to diminish.

The technology and health care sectors contributed positively to the portfolio's performance. Technology was the largest positive contributor, fueled by holdings in the telecommunications and Internet software/services industries. Gilead Sciences, a biotechnology company, was consistently part of the top 10 holdings for the portfolio throughout the first six months of the year and was a strong contributor to performance in the health care sector. Detracting from performance were holdings in the consumer staples and energy sectors.

The economic outlook for the second half of 2003 suggests an acceleration in the growth trend. We believe there are sufficiently strong fundamentals in that area to provide the necessary support for a sustained market rally. We continue to remain optimistic that we will experience a strong economic rebound in the second half of the year.

Russell Mid Cap Growth Index is an unmanaged index composed of common stocks of mid-cap companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values. Index returns assume reinvested dividends and capital gains and do not reflect fees or expenses; investors cannot directly access an index.


Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Returns and principal value will fluctuate so that accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Total return measures net investment income and capital gain or loss from portfolio investments over the period specified, assuming reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain distributions. Total return reflects aggregate change. Performance is net of the portfolio's management fee and other operating expenses but does not include any deduction at the separate account or contract level for any insurance or surrender charge that may be incurred under a contract. Please see the prospectus for more details.

Portfolio management market commentary is as of June 30, 2003, and may not come to pass. This information is subject to change at any time, based on market and other conditions.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)


A. Significant Accounting Policies

Scudder Variable Series II (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end, diversified management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust offers twenty-seven portfolios (the "portfolio(s)"). During the period, Scudder Investment Grade Bond Portfolio changed its name to Scudder Fixed Income Portfolio.

Multiple Classes of Shares of Beneficial Interest. The Trust offers two classes of shares (Class A shares and Class B shares). Sales of Class B shares commenced July 1, 2002 (except for Scudder Strategic Income Portfolio which commenced sales of Class B shares on May 1, 2003) and are subject to a Rule 12b-1 fees under the 1940 Act, and record keeping fees, equal to an annual rate of up to 0.25% and 0.15%, respectively, of the average daily net assets of the Class B shares of the applicable Portfolio. Class A shares are not subject to such fees.

Investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses, and certain portfolio-level expenses and expense reductions, if any, are borne pro rata on the basis of relative net assets by the holders of all classes of shares except that each class bears certain expenses unique to that class (including the applicable 12b-1 fee and record keeping fee). Differences in class-level expenses may result in payment of different per share dividends by class. All shares have equal rights with respect to voting subject to class-specific arrangements.

The Trust's financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which require the use of management estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The policies described below are followed consistently by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements.

Security Valuation. Investments are stated at value determined as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange on each day the exchange is open for trading. Equity securities are valued at the most recent sale price reported on the exchange (US or foreign) or over-the-counter market on which the security is traded most extensively. Securities for which no sales are reported are valued at the calculated mean between the most recent bid and asked quotations on the relevant market or, if a mean cannot be determined, at the most recent bid quotation.

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services approved by the Trustees of the Portfolios. If the pricing services are unable to provide valuations, the securities are valued at the most recent bid quotation or evaluated price, as applicable, obtained from one or more broker-dealers. Such services may use various pricing techniques which take into account appropriate factors such as yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other data, as well as broker quotes.

Money market instruments purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less, maturing at par, are valued at amortized cost. Investments in open-end investments companies and Scudder Cash Management QP Trust are valued at their net asset value each business day.

Securities and other assets for which market quotations are not readily available or for which the above valuation procedures are deemed not to reflect fair value are valued in a manner that is intended to reflect their fair value as determined in accordance with procedures approved by the Trustees.

Foreign Currency Translations. The books and records of the Trust are maintained in US dollars. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into US dollars at the prevailing exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses are translated into US dollars at the prevailing exchange rates on the respective dates of the transactions.

Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net gains and losses between trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the disposition of forward foreign currency exchange contracts and foreign currencies and the difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and the US dollar amount actually received. That portion of both realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed but is included with net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investment securities.

Repurchase Agreements. The portfolios may enter into repurchase agreements with certain banks and broker-dealers whereby the portfolios, through their custodian or sub-custodian bank, receive delivery of the underlying securities, the amount of which at the time of purchase and each subsequent business day is required to be maintained at such a level that the value is equal to at least the principal amount of the repurchase price plus accrued interest.

Options. An option contract is a contract in which the writer of the option grants the buyer of the option the right to purchase from (call option), or sell to (put option), the writer a designated instrument at a specified price within a specified period of time. Certain options, including options on indices, will require cash settlement by the portfolio if the option is exercised. The portfolios may enter into option contracts in order to hedge against potential adverse price movements in the value of portfolio assets; as a temporary substitute for selling selected investments; to lock in the purchase price of a security or currency which it expects to purchase in the near future; as a temporary substitute for purchasing selected investments; and to enhance potential gain.

The liability representing the portfolio's obligation under an exchange traded written option or investment in a purchased option is valued at the last sale price or, in the absence of a sale, the mean between the closing bid and asked prices or at the most recent asked price (bid for purchased options) if no bid and asked price are available. Over-the-counter written or purchased options are valued using dealer-supplied quotations. Gain or loss is recognized when the option contract expires or is closed.

If the portfolio writes a covered call option, the portfolio foregoes, in exchange for the premium, the opportunity to profit during the option period from an increase in the market value of the underlying security above the exercise price. If the portfolio writes a put option it accepts the risk of a decline in the value of the underlying security below the exercise price. Over-the-counter options have the risk of the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. The portfolio's maximum exposure to purchased options is limited to the premium initially paid. In addition, certain risks may arise upon entering into option contracts including the risk that an illiquid secondary market will limit the portfolio's ability to close out an option contract prior to the expiration date and that a change in the value of the option contract may not correlate exactly with changes in the value of the securities or currencies hedged.

Futures Contracts. A futures contract is an agreement between a buyer or seller and an established futures exchange or its clearinghouse in which the buyer or seller agrees to take or make a delivery of a specific amount of a financial instrument at a specified price on a specific date (settlement date). The portfolios may enter into futures contracts as a hedge against anticipated interest rate, currency or equity market changes and for duration management, risk management and return enhancement purposes.

Upon entering into a futures contract, the portfolio is required to deposit with a financial intermediary an amount ("initial margin") equal to a certain percentage of the face value indicated in the futures contract. Subsequent payments ("variation margin") are made or received by the portfolio dependent upon the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security and are recorded for financial reporting purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the portfolio. When entering into a closing transaction, the portfolio will realize a gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the futures contract to sell and the futures contract to buy. Futures contracts are valued at the most recent settlement price.

Certain risks may arise upon entering into futures contracts, including the risk that an illiquid secondary market will limit the portfolio's ability to close out a futures contract prior to the settlement date and that a change in the value of a futures contract may not correlate exactly with the changes in the value of the securities or currencies hedged. When utilizing futures contracts to hedge, the portfolio gives up the opportunity to profit from favorable price movements in the hedged positions during the term of the contract.

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts. A forward foreign currency exchange contract (forward currency contract) is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at the settlement date at a negotiated rate. The portfolios may enter into forward currency contracts in order to hedge its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates on its foreign currency denominated portfolio holdings and to facilitate transactions in foreign currency denominated securities.

Forward currency contracts are valued at the prevailing forward exchange rate of the underlying currencies and unrealized gain (loss) is recorded daily. Sales and purchases of forward currency contracts having the same settlement date and broker are offset and any gain (loss) is realized on the date of offset; otherwise, gain (loss) is realized on settlement date. Realized and unrealized gains and losses which represent the difference between the value of a forward currency contract to buy and a forward currency contract to sell are included in net realized and unrealized gain (loss) from foreign currency related transactions.

Certain risks may arise upon entering into forward currency contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Additionally, when utilizing forward currency contracts to hedge, the portfolio gives up the opportunity to profit from favorable exchange rate movements during the term of the contract.

Mortgage Dollar Rolls. The Scudder Fixed Income Portfolio, Scudder Government Securities Portfolio and Scudder Total Return Portfolio entered into mortgage dollar rolls in which each portfolio sells mortgage-backed securities for delivery in the current month and simultaneously contracts to repurchase similar, but not identical, securities on a fixed date. Each portfolio receives compensation as consideration for entering into the commitment to repurchase. The compensation is paid in the form of a lower price for this security upon its repurchases or, alternatively, a fee. Mortgage dollar rolls may be renewed with a new sale and repurchase price and a cash settlement made at each renewal without physical delivery of the securities subject to the contract.

Certain risks may arise upon entering into mortgage dollar rolls from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their commitments. Additionally, the value of such securities may change adversely before the portfolio is able to repurchase them.

When-Issued/Delayed Delivery Securities. Several of the portfolios may purchase securities with delivery or payment to occur at a later date beyond the normal settlement period. At the time the portfolio enters into a commitment to purchase a security, the transaction is recorded and the value of the security is reflected in the net asset value. The price of such security and the date when the security will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The value of the security may vary with market fluctuations. No interest accrues to the portfolio until payment takes place. At the time the portfolio enters into this type of transaction it is required to segregate cash or other liquid assets at least equal to the amount of the commitment.

Certain risks may arise upon entering into when-issued or delayed delivery securities from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors. Additionally, losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities.

Federal Income Taxes. The portfolios' policy is to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, which are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable and tax-exempt income to its shareholders. Accordingly, the portfolios paid no federal income taxes and no federal income tax provision was required.

At December 31, 2002, the following portfolios had an approximate net tax basis capital loss carryforward which may be applied against any realized net taxable capital gains of each succeeding year until fully utilized or until the following expiration dates, whichever occurs first:

As permitted by tax regulations, the portfolios intend to elect to defer these losses and treat them as arising in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003.

Distribution of Income and Gains. Distributions of net investment income, if any, for all portfolios except the Scudder Money Market Portfolio, are made annually. Net realized gains from investment transactions, in excess of available capital loss carryforwards, would be taxable to the portfolio if not distributed and, therefore, will be distributed to shareholders at least annually. All of the net investment income of the Scudder Money Market Portfolio is declared as a daily dividend and is distributed to shareholders monthly.

The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gains distributions are determined annually in accordance with federal tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. As a result, net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such period. Accordingly, a portfolio may periodically make reclassifications among certain of its capital accounts without impacting the net asset value of the portfolio.

At December 31, 2002, the portfolios' components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Portfolio

Undistributed ordinary income ($)

Undistributed net long-term capital gains ($)

Capital loss carryforwards ($)

Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments ($)

* For tax purposes short-term capital gains distributions are considered ordinary income distributions.

The tax character of current year distributions, if any, will be determined at the end of the current fiscal year.

Expenses. Expenses arising in connection with a specific portfolio are allocated to that portfolio. Other Trust expenses are allocated between the portfolios in proportion to their relative net assets.

Other. Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date net of foreign withholding taxes. Certain dividends from foreign securities may be recorded subsequent to the ex-dividend date as soon as the portfolio is informed of such dividends. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are recorded on an identified cost basis. All discounts and premiums are accreted/amortized for both tax and financial reporting purposes for all portfolios.

For Scudder Money Market Portfolio, the Advisor agreed to waive 0.15% of the 12b-1 fee until April 30, 2003.

Trustees' Fees and Expenses. The portfolios pay each Trustee not affiliated with the Advisor retainer fees plus specified amounts for attended board and committee meetings.

Scudder Cash Management QP Trust. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the SEC, the portfolios may invest in the Scudder Cash Management QP Trust (the "QP Trust") and other affiliated funds managed by the Advisor. The QP Trust seeks to provide as high a level of current income as is consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity. The QP Trust does not pay the Advisor a management fee for the affiliated funds' investments in the QP Trust.

D. Investing in High Yield Securities

The Scudder High Income Portfolio invests a substantial portion of its assets in high yield bonds. These bonds ordinarily are in the lower rating categories of recognized rating agencies or are non-rated, and thus involve more risk than higher rated bonds.

E. Investing in Emerging Markets

Investing in emerging markets may involve special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in the United States of America. These risks include revaluation of currencies, high rates of inflation, repatriation restrictions on income and capital, and future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities issued in these markets may be less liquid, subject to government ownership controls, delayed settlements and their prices more volatile than those of comparable securities in the United States of America.

F. Expense Off-Set Arrangements

The portfolios have entered into arrangements with their custodian whereby credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce a portion of the portfolio's expenses. During the six months ended June 30, 2003, the portfolios' custodian fees were reduced under these arrangements as follows:
