              (A SERIES PORTFOLIO OF AIM INTERNATIONAL FUNDS, INC.)


                       Supplement dated February 19, 1998
                   to the Prospectus dated November 12, 1997,
                           as revised January 2, 1998


The following paragraph is inserted as the first full paragraph on page 6 of the
prospectus:

         The Fund may invest in securities of companies of varying market
         capitalization, including small companies (i.e., companies with market
         capitalization of less than $1 billion). For a description of the risks
         associated with investment in small companies, see "Risk Factors - 
         Small Companies."


The following paragraph is inserted as a new sub-heading under "RISK FACTORS,"
before "Emerging Markets" on page 9 of the prospectus:

         SMALL COMPANIES. Small companies (i.e., companies with market
capitalization of less than $1 billion) may be in the early stages of
development, have limited product lines, markets, or financial resources, and/or
lack management depth. These companies may be impacted by intense competition
from larger companies, and the trading market for their securities may be less
liquid and more volatile than the market for securities of larger companies. As
a result, investments in small companies involve greater risk than investments
in larger, more established companies, and the net asset value of funds that
invest in small companies may fluctuate more widely than the net asset value of
other funds or stock market indices such as the Dow Jones Industrial Average or
the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index.
