Dear Shareholder:
After starting the year on a relatively optimistic note, financial markets endured some disappointments but ultimately finished the six-month period ended June 30, 2012 mostly higher. While sluggish economic growth across Europe was expected given the ongoing debt crisis and the resulting austerity measures, indications of slowing in the U.S. and China further tempered investors' outlooks on the global economy. Some progress was made on containing Europe's debt woes, including the European Central Bank's (ECB) two long-term refinancing operations (or LTROs, in December 2011 and February 2012), which provided three-year loans to European banks, and coordinated monetary policy responses from central banks around the world, which boosted liquidity in the system. However, Greece's embattled legislative election in the spring and a bank bailout in Spain were a reminder that many fundamental issues have yet to be resolved. In the final days of the reporting period, the latest European summit yielded some positive developments, including a willingness to enable bank supervision at a federal, rather than national level and an easing of restrictions on access to rescue funds.
Domestic Equity Overview
In the first few months of 2012, improving data from the labor market, housing market, and consumer confidence and spending bolstered investor confidence about the U.S. economy's prospects. However, part of the improvement in jobs and consumer data was due to the unseasonably warm spring, and the positive momentum in these metrics did not last beyond April. The economy began to appear more sluggish in the second quarter of 2012. Concerns about the effects of the ongoing European debt crisis on economies in Europe and China also contributed to volatility in stock prices. Despite the challenging backdrop, corporate earnings generally remained within or above expectations during the period, although signs emerged after the close of the period (as second quarter earnings reports were being released) that earnings expectations would need to be lowered going forward. While U.S. stock market performance was weaker in the second quarter of 2012 than in the first quarter, the S&P 500 Index closed the six-month period up 9.49%.
Fixed Income Overview
In 2011, the Federal Open Market Committee announced that it expected to keep interest rates on hold until at least mid-2013. Yields on the short end of the yield curve remained anchored by the Fed's near-zero interest rate policy, keeping money market yields low. Given the weaker-than-expected economic conditions, the Federal Reserve (the Fed) extended its timeline to late-2014 at the beginning of this year. Since October 2011, the Fed has been buying longer-maturity Treasuries and selling short-term Treasuries to put downward pressure on longer-term interest rates. This program was scheduled to end in June 2012, but has been extended to December 2012.

Letter to the Shareholders n June 30, 2012 (unaudited) continued
Treasury yields rose in the first quarter but then declined in the second quarter, reflecting weaker growth as well as a flight to quality due to the European debt crisis. The 10-year Treasury yield reached an all time low of 1.47% at the beginning of June.
Agency mortgage-backed securities performed well over the period. The sector offers an attractive yield advantage in the current low yield environment. Despite historically low mortgage rates, refinancing activity has been slower than it has been in the past under similar rate incentives. Many borrowers are unable to refinance due to tighter underwriting standards. The U.S. housing market appears to be trying to find a bottom. The headline home price index was still showing a negative year-over-year trend at the end of the review period, but the momentum of the decline had meaningfully slowed.
The corporate segment outperformed Treasuries, aided by strong corporate balance sheets and low borrowing costs. The high yield corporate sector saw increased volatility in the second quarter of 2012 amid worries about the European debt crisis. For the period overall, the financial sector was the best-performing corporate sector.
International Equity Overview
Despite the concerns about the European debt crisis and the slackening pace of China's economy, many international equity markets posted gains for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012. The outcome of the European summit on June 28 and 29 surprised the markets, leading to a rally in the final days of the reporting period. However, the proposals' implementation details have yet to be worked out and the larger issue of developing a more sustainable framework for economic growth in the region remains. Meanwhile, European economies continued to show signs of deterioration, even within the so-called "core" countries. China's economy also cooled during the period, as export demand from the U.S. and Europe declined and credit remained restricted. The country's central bank unexpectedly cut interest rates in June (and again in July, just after the end of the reporting period) in an attempt to keep economic growth from sliding further.
Money Market Portfolio
An investment in a money market fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although money market funds seek to preserve the value of an investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in such funds.
As of June 30, 2012, Select Dimensions Money Market Portfolio had net assets of approximately $73 million with an average portfolio maturity of 21 days. For the seven-day period ended June 30, 2012, the Portfolio's Class X shares provided an effective annualized yield of 0.01% (subsidized) and 0.34% (non-subsidized) and a current yield of 0.01% (subsidized) and 0.34% (non-subsidized), while its 30-day

moving average yield for June was 0.01% (subsidized) and 0.33% (non-subsidized). Yield quotations more closely reflect the current earnings of the Portfolio. The non-subsidized yield reflects what the yield would have been had a fee and/or expense waiver not been in place during the period shown. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, the Portfolio's Class X shares returned 0.00%. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
For the seven-day period ended June 30, 2012, the Portfolio's Class Y shares provided an effective annualized yield of 0.01% (subsidized) and 0.59% (non-subsidized) and a current yield of 0.01% (subsidized) and 0.59% (non-subsidized), while its 30-day moving average yield for June was 0.01% (subsidized) and 0.58% (non-subsidized). Yield quotations more closely reflect the current earnings of the Portfolio. The non-subsidized yield reflects what the yield would have been had a fee and/or expense waiver not been in place during the period shown. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, the Portfolio's Class Y shares returned 0.00%. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
The performance of the Portfolio's two share classes varies because each has different expenses. The Portfolio's total returns assume the reinvestment of all distributions but do not reflect the deduction of any charges by your insurance company. Such costs would lower performance.
We continued to remain cautious in our investment approach, focusing on high liquidity and short durations. We believe our investment process and focus on credit research and risk management have placed the Portfolio in a favorable position to respond to market uncertainty. Most of our investment activity has been focused on rolling significant amounts of overnight and short-dated maturities, with occasional selective purchases of one-month, three-month, and six-month fixed rate maturities, as well as selective purchases of nine-month and one-year floating rate paper.
There is no guarantee that any sectors mentioned will continue to perform as discussed above or that securities in such sectors will be held by the Portfolio in the future.
Flexible Income Portfolio
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, Select Dimensions Flexible Income Portfolio Class X shares produced a total return of 5.75%, outperforming the Barclays Capital Intermediate U.S. Government/Credit Index (the "Index"),1 which returned 2.10%. For the same period, the Portfolio's Class Y shares returned 5.67%. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
1 The Barclays Capital Intermediate U.S. Government/Credit Index tracks the performance of U.S. government and corporate obligations, including U.S. government agency and Treasury securities, and corporate and Yankee bonds with maturities of 1 to 10 years.

The Portfolio's allocation to high yield corporate debt, a sector not represented in the Index, added marginally to performance. This allocation was sold by the end of February, following the sharp rally that occurred at the start of the year. The overweight position to credit risk, mainly in the financials sector, added to performance as spreads tightened over the period, particularly over the first quarter.
The Portfolio's interest rate positioning was also additive to relative performance. The Portfolio was able to benefit from a flattening (or, reduction in the difference of yield spreads) between the short and intermediate parts of the U.S. yield curve. These trades were unwound profitably during the period. A long position in Mexican rates was also positive, as rates there fell. As of the end of June, the Portfolio's duration was 0.4 years shorter than the Index, with half of the position in U.S. dollars.
Currency positions, which are managed through the use of currency forwards, detracted slightly from performance.
The Portfolio gained in the first two months of the year when its yield advantage over the Index was boosted by the high yield positions, which were subsequently sold.
There is no guarantee that any sectors mentioned will continue to perform as discussed above or that securities in such sectors will be held by the Portfolio in the future.
Global Infrastructure Portfolio
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, Select Dimensions Global Infrastructure Portfolio Class X shares produced a total return of 6.84%, outperforming the Dow Jones Brookfield Global Infrastructure IndexSM (the "Index"),2 which returned 6.44%, and the S&P Global BMI Index,3 which returned 6.09% For

Infrastructure shares appreciated 6.44% during the first half of 2012, as measured by the Index. Among the major infrastructure sectors, the communications, European regulated utilities, and gas distribution utilities sectors exhibited relative outperformance over the Index, while the gas midstream, toll roads, pipeline companies, and transmission and distribution sectors underperformed the Index. In addition, all of the smaller sectors exhibited relative outperformance, with the water sector realizing the strongest gains.
Despite indications of slowing economic growth globally, the first half of 2012 ended on a high note for the broader equity markets as investors cheered the prospect of a common European banking regulator and the potential for direct bank bailouts within the European Union (EU) that will bypass sovereign governments (thus breaking the circular, co-dependent relationship between governments and banks that plagues the current crisis). While many would welcome these potential measures, we are cautious given the continued lack of specifics and the seemingly different interpretations of EU summit promises as expressed by members of the German and Spanish governments. Certain northern European countries have also threatened to block such initiatives unless current austerity drives are implemented in full.
If certain announcements in Europe are cause for optimism, such optimism may be in short supply as economic statistics elsewhere indicate a global economy struggling to escape from the global financial crisis. Job growth in the United States remains lackluster at best, and business optimism has started to deteriorate again, after improving earlier in the year. In Asia, the Chinese government has announced policy measures to stimulate growth and has lowered borrowing rates, but recent disclosure of various economic statistics indicate a broad slowing of growth in that country.
Within infrastructure, the strength of operating fundamentals exhibited in the first half of the year varies by sector and region. One of the strongest areas from a fundamental perspective remains the communications sector, where U.S.-based wireless tower operators in particular enjoyed robust growth, driven by upgrades to telecommunications companies' wireless networks. Utility assets globally that focus on transmission, distribution, and storage initiatives also witnessed very stable, steady growth. Within energy infrastructure in North America, there has been some softening in fundamentals off the very robust growth achieved over the last couple of years as lower natural gas, crude oil, and natural gas liquids (NGL)

prices have curtailed exploration and production company drilling plans somewhat, lessening the utilization of existing infrastructure in certain parts of the value chain (in particular, gathering and processing). We view this softening as temporary, however, as the long-term need for takeaway capacity and processing is significant and the geographical location of both resource and demand centers continues to evolve. We would also note that recent merger and acquisition activity in the exploration and production space for North American commodity resources by Asian buyers underscored the medium- to long-term demand for natural gas, crude oil, and commodity byproducts that will require infrastructure investment for some time to come. It is important to note the distinction between energy infrastructure company share prices, some of which were weak in the first half of 2012 in particular within gas midstream and the magnitude of their capital programs, which remained very robust.
As a final note, while the operating fundamentals (i.e., traffic) of European toll road companies have for the most part been weak for the first half of the year, current valuation levels are difficult to ignore. Current share prices imply a long-term cost of capital and/or indefinite weakness in traffic, which is difficult to justify despite the current financial and economic crises surrounding the countries in which these concessionaires are domiciled.
For the first half of 2012, the Portfolio realized favorable performance from both bottom-up stock selection and top-down allocation. From a bottom-up perspective, the Portfolio benefited from stock selection in the gas distribution utilities, communications, European regulated utilities, and gas midstream sectors, but relative gains were partially offset by adverse selection in the pipeline companies sector. From a top-down perspective, the Portfolio benefited from an underweight to the gas midstream sector and overweights to the communications and gas distribution utilities sectors. This outperformance was partially offset by overweights to the toll roads and pipeline companies sectors.
We remain committed to our core investment philosophy as an infrastructure value investor. As value-oriented, bottom-up driven investors, our investment perspective is that over the medium and long term, the key factor in determining the performance of infrastructure securities will be underlying infrastructure asset values. Given the large and growing private infrastructure market, we believe that there are limits as to the level of premium or discount at which the public sector should trade relative to its underlying private infrastructure value. These limits can be viewed as the point at which the arbitrage opportunity between owning infrastructure in the private versus public markets becomes compelling. In aiming to achieve core infrastructure exposure in a cost effective manner, we invest in equity securities of publicly listed infrastructure companies we believe offer the best value relative to their underlying infrastructure value and Net Asset Value growth prospects.

Our research currently leads us to an overweighting in the Portfolio (amongst the largest sectors) to a group of companies in the gas distribution utilities, communications, toll road, and pipeline companies sectors, and an underweighting to companies in the gas midstream and transmission and distribution sectors. Since our year-end commentary dated December 31, 2011, the only change from a sector perspective is that we now hold close to a market-weight position in the European regulated utilities sector.
Looking forward, we continue to believe the toll road sector presents an attractive opportunity from a valuation perspective, and we also like the secular growth stories within the communications sector and energy infrastructure sector in particular, gas distribution utilities within Asia and pipeline companies within North America. For the more processing and fractionation-focused midstream companies, we remain underweight but believe they have become more attractively valued given the absolute declines observed in the first half of the year.
There is no guarantee that any sectors mentioned will continue to perform as discussed above or that securities in such sectors will be held by the Portfolio in the future.
Growth Portfolio
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, Select Dimensions Growth Portfolio Class X shares produced a total return of 10.55%, outperforming the Russell 1000® Growth Index (the "Index"),4 which returned 10.08%.

Stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector was the largest contributor to relative performance, led by holdings in an online retailer, an online auction and shopping management company, and an online travel company. Stock selection and an underweight in the producer durables sector also benefited relative returns. Top contributors within the sector included a global corporate services firm, a global consumer goods trading company, and a product testing and certification company. Both stock selection and an underweight in the consumer staples sector were additive as well, with good performance from holdings in a pediatric nutrition company and a global beer brewing company.

Stock selection in the technology sector was by far the largest detractor from performance. Several holdings in the computer services, software and systems industry were among the weakest performers in the portfolio during the period. Stock selection in materials and processing dampened relative performance, due to positions in two companies specializing in rare earth minerals production. Stock selection in financial services also hurt relative returns. The Portfolio's position in an auto insurance provider and a lack of exposure to real estate investment trusts (REITs), a group that performed well in the Index, were the main reasons for the Portfolio's underperformance within the sector.
Conversely, stock selection in health care was additive to relative performance. The Portfolio held several stocks that performed well, including a provider of billing services to medical group practices and companies making medical and dental instrument and supplies. Stock selection in consumer discretionary was another positive contributor, mostly due to strong gains from a position in an online retailer. Stock selection in producer durables further benefited relative returns. Within the sector, the Portfolio was helped by exposure to companies involved in back office support, human resources, and consulting, as well as holdings in commercial services providers.

The Portfolio's relative underperformance was driven in part by stock selection in the technology sector. Within the sector, a holding in a social network game developer was the largest detractor.

Expense Examples n June 30, 2012 (unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) insurance company charges; and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees; and other Portfolio expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period 01/01/12 06/30/12.
Actual Expenses
The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing cost of investing in the Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any insurance company charges. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs, and will not help you determine the relative total cost of owning different funds. In addition, if these insurance company charges were included, your costs would have been higher.

Investment Advisory Agreement Approval n June 30, 2012 (unaudited)
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
The Board reviewed and considered the nature and extent of the investment advisory services provided by the Investment Adviser (as defined herein) under the advisory agreement, including portfolio management, investment research and equity and fixed income securities trading. The Board reviewed similar information and factors regarding the Sub-Advisers (as defined herein), to the extent applicable. The Board also reviewed and considered the nature and extent of the non-advisory, administrative services provided by the Administrator (as defined herein) under the administration agreement, including accounting, clerical, bookkeeping, compliance, business management and planning, and the provision of supplies, office space and utilities at the Investment Adviser's expense. (The Investment Adviser, Sub-Advisers and Administrator together are referred to as the "Adviser" and the advisory, sub-advisory and administration agreements together are referred to as the "Management Agreement.") The Board also compared the nature of the services provided by the Adviser with similar services provided by non-affiliated advisers as reported to the Board by Lipper, Inc. ("Lipper").
The Board reviewed and considered the qualifications of the portfolio managers, the senior administrative managers and other key personnel of the Adviser who provide the administrative and advisory services to the Portfolios. The Board determined that the Adviser's portfolio managers and key personnel are well qualified by education and/or training and experience to perform the services in an efficient and professional manner. The Board concluded that the nature and extent of the advisory and administrative services provided were necessary and appropriate for the conduct of the business and investment activities of the Portfolios and supported its decision to approve the Management Agreement.
Performance, Fees and Expenses of the Portfolios
The Board reviewed the performance, fees and expenses of the Portfolios compared to their peers, as determined by Lipper, and to appropriate benchmarks where applicable. The Board discussed with the Adviser the performance goals and the actual results achieved in managing the Portfolios. When considering a fund's performance, the Board and the Adviser place emphasis on trends and longer-term returns (focusing on one-year, three-year and five-year performance, as of December 31, 2011, or since inception, as applicable). When a fund underperforms its benchmark and/or its peer group average, they discuss the causes of such underperformance and, where necessary, they discuss specific changes to investment strategy or investment personnel.
Performance
The Board noted that the performance of the Flexible Income Portfolio was below the peer group averages for the one-, three- and five-year periods.
The Board noted that the performance of the Money Market Portfolio was better than its peer group average for the one-year period but below its peer group average for the three- and five-year periods.
18
Morgan Stanley Select Dimensions Investment Series
Investment Advisory Agreement Approval n June 30, 2012 (unaudited) continued
The Board noted that the performance of the Global Infrastructure Portfolio was better than its peer group average for the one- and five year periods but below its peer group average for the three-year period.
The Board noted that the performance of the Growth, Focus Growth, Multi Cap Growth and Mid Cap Growth Portfolios was better than the peer group averages for the three- and five-year periods but below the peer group averages for the one-year period.
Performance Conclusions
With respect to the Money Market, Mid Cap Growth and Flexible Income Portfolios, after discussion, the Board concluded that performance was acceptable.
With respect to the Growth, Focus Growth, Multi Cap Growth and Global Infrastructure Portfolios, after discussion, the Board concluded that performance was competitive with the peer group averages.
Fees and Expenses
The Board members discussed with the Adviser the level of the advisory and administration fees (together, the "management fee") for the Portfolios relative to comparable funds and/or other accounts advised by the Adviser and/or compared to their peers as determined by Lipper. In addition to the management fee, the Board also reviewed the Portfolios' total expense ratios. When a fund's management fee and/or its expense ratio are higher than comparable funds or peers, the Board and the Adviser discuss the reasons for this and, where appropriate, they discuss possible waivers and/or caps.
The Board noted that the management fees and total expense ratios for the Money Market, Focus Growth, Growth and Mid Cap Growth Portfolios were lower than the peer group averages.
The Board noted for the Flexible Income Portfolio that while the management fee was lower than its peer group average, the total expense ratio was higher but close to its peer group average.
The Board noted for the Global Infrastructure Portfolio that while the management fee was lower than its peer group average, the total expense ratio was higher but close to its peer group average.
The Board noted for the Multi Cap Growth Portfolio that the management fee and total expense ratio were higher but close to the peer group averages.
Fee and Expense Conclusions
With respect to the Money Market, Flexible Income, Global Infrastructure, Growth, Focus Growth, Multi Cap Growth and Mid Cap Growth Portfolios, after discussion, the Board concluded that the management fees and total expense ratios were competitive with the peer group averages.

Investment Advisory Agreement Approval n June 30, 2012 (unaudited) continued
Economies of Scale
The Board considered the size and growth prospects of the Portfolios and how that relates to the Portfolios' total expense ratios and particularly the Portfolios' management fee rates (which, for all the Portfolios except Flexible Income, include one or more breakpoints). In conjunction with its review of the Adviser's profitability, the Board discussed with the Adviser how a change in assets can affect the efficiency or effectiveness of managing the Portfolios and whether the management fee level is appropriate relative to current and projected asset levels and/or whether the management fee structure reflects economies of scale as asset levels change. The Board has determined that its review of the actual and potential economies of scale of each Portfolio supports its decision to approve the Management Agreement.
Profitability of the Adviser and Affiliates
The Board considered information concerning the costs incurred and profits realized by the Adviser and its affiliates during the last year from their relationship with the Portfolios and during the last two years from their relationship with the Morgan Stanley Fund Complex and reviewed with the Adviser the cost allocation methodology used to determine the profitability of the Adviser and affiliates. The Board has determined that its review of the analysis of the Adviser's expenses and profitability supports its decision to approve the Management Agreement.
Other Benefits of the Relationship
The Board considered other benefits to the Adviser and its affiliates derived from their relationship with the Portfolios and other funds advised by the Adviser. These benefits may include, among other things, "float" benefits derived from handling of checks for purchases and sales, research received by the Adviser generated from commission dollars spent on funds' portfolio trading and fees for distribution and/or shareholder servicing. The Board reviewed with the Adviser each of these arrangements and the reasonableness of the Adviser's costs relative to the services performed. The Board has determined that its review of the other benefits received by the Adviser or its affiliates supports its decision to approve the Management Agreement.
Resources of the Adviser and Historical Relationship Between the Portfolios and the Adviser
The Board considered whether the Adviser is financially sound and has the resources necessary to perform its obligations under the Management Agreement. The Board also reviewed and considered the historical relationship between the Portfolios and the Adviser, including the organizational structure of the Adviser, the policies and procedures formulated and adopted by the Adviser for managing the Portfolios' operations and the Board's confidence in the competence and integrity of the senior managers and key personnel of the Adviser. The Board concluded that the Adviser has the financial resources necessary to fulfill its obligations under the Management Agreement and that it is beneficial for the Portfolios to continue their relationship with the Adviser.
20
Morgan Stanley Select Dimensions Investment Series
Investment Advisory Agreement Approval n June 30, 2012 (unaudited) continued
Other Factors and Current Trends
The Board considered the controls and procedures adopted and implemented by the Adviser and monitored by the Fund's Chief Compliance Officer and concluded that the conduct of business by the Adviser indicates a good faith effort on its part to adhere to high ethical standards in the conduct of the Fund's business.
General Conclusion
After considering and weighing all of the above factors, the Board concluded that it would be in the best interest of each Portfolio and its shareholders to approve renewal of the Management Agreement for another year. In reaching this conclusion the Board did not give particular weight to any single factor referenced above. The Board considered these factors over the course of numerous meetings, some of which were in executive session with only the independent Board members and their counsel present. It is possible that individual Board members may have weighed these factors differently in reaching their individual decisions to approve the Management Agreement.

Morgan Stanley Select Dimensions Investment Series

1. Organization and Accounting Policies
Morgan Stanley Select Dimensions Investment Series (the "Fund") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as amended (the "Act"), as a diversified (except Focus Growth is non-diversified, effective August 8, 2007), open-end management investment company. The Fund is offered exclusively to life insurance companies in connection with particular life insurance and/or annuity contracts they offer.
The Fund, which consists of seven separate portfolios ("Portfolios"), was organized on June 2, 1994, as a Massachusetts business trust and commenced operations on November 9, 1994, with the exception of Multi Cap Growth which commenced operations on January 21, 1997.
On July 24, 2000, the Fund commenced offering one additional class of shares (Class Y shares). The two classes are identical except that Class Y shares incur distribution expenses. Class X shares are generally available to holders of contracts offered before May 1, 2000. Class Y shares are available to holders of contracts offered on or after July 24, 2000.
The investment objectives of each Portfolio are as follows:
PORTFOLIO | INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE | ||||||
Money Market | Seeks high current income, preservation of capital and liquidity. | ||||||
Flexible Income | Seeks, as a primary objective, to earn a high level of current income and, as a secondary objective, to maximize total return, but only to the extent consistent with its primary objective. | ||||||
Global Infrastructure | Seeks both capital appreciation and current income. | ||||||
Growth | Seeks long-term capital growth. | ||||||
Focus Growth | Seeks long-term capital growth. | ||||||
Multi Cap Growth | Seeks long-term capital growth. | ||||||
Mid Cap Growth | Seeks long-term capital growth. | ||||||
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies:
A. Valuation of Investments Money Market: Portfolio securities are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value, in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the Act. All remaining Portfolios: (1) an equity portfolio security listed or traded on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") or American Stock Exchange or other domestic exchange is valued at its latest sales price (or at the exchange official closing price if such exchange reports an official closing price) prior to the time when assets are valued; if there were no sales that day, the security is valued at the mean between the last reported bid and asked price; (2) an equity portfolio
66
Morgan Stanley Select Dimensions Investment Series
Notes to Financial Statements n June 30, 2012 (unaudited) continued
security listed or traded on the Nasdaq is valued at the Nasdaq Official Closing Price; if there were no sales that day, the security is valued at the mean between the last reported bid and asked price; (3) all other domestic securities for which over-the-counter market quotations are readily available are valued at the mean between the last reported bid and asked prices. In cases where a security is traded on more than one domestic exchange, the security is valued on the exchange designated as the primary market; (4) for equity securities traded on foreign exchanges, the latest reported sales price (or at the exchange official closing price if such exchange reports an official closing price) or the mean between the last reported bid and asked prices may be used if there were no sales on a particular day or the latest bid price may be used if only bid prices are available; (5) futures are valued at the latest price published by the commodities exchange on which they trade; (6) swaps are marked-to-market daily based upon quotations from market makers; (7) when market quotations are not readily available, including circumstances under which Morgan Stanley Investment Management Inc. (the "Adviser") or Morgan Stanley Investment Management Limited or Morgan Stanley Investment Management Company (each, a "Sub-Adviser"), each a wholly owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley, determines that the latest sale price, the bid price or the mean between the last reported bid and ask price do not reflect a security's fair value, portfolio securities are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith under procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Fund's Board of Trustees (the "Trustees"). Occasionally, developments affecting the closing prices of securities and other assets may occur between the times at which valuations of such securities are determined (that is, close of the foreign market on which the securities trade) and the close of business on the NYSE. If developments occur during such periods that are expected to materially affect the value of such securities, such valuations may be adjusted to reflect the estimated fair value of such securities as of the close of the NYSE, as determined in good faith by the Trustees or by the Adviser using a pricing service and/or procedures approved by the Trustees; (8) certain portfolio securities may be valued by an outside pricing service approved by the Trustees. The prices provided by a pricing service take into account broker-dealer market price quotations for trading in similar groups of securities, security quality, maturity, coupon and other security characteristics as well as any developments related to the specific securities; (9) investments in mutual funds, including the Morgan Stanley Institutional Liquidity Funds, are valued at the net asset value as of the close of each business day; and (10) short-term debt securities having a maturity date of more than sixty days at time of purchase are valued on a mark-to-market basis until sixty days prior to maturity and thereafter at amortized cost based on their value on the 61st day. Short-term debt securities having a maturity date of sixty days or less at the time of purchase are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.
67
Morgan Stanley Select Dimensions Investment Series
Notes to Financial Statements n June 30, 2012 (unaudited) continued
Under procedures approved by the Trustees, the Fund's Adviser has formed a Valuation Committee. The Valuation Committee provides administration and oversight of the Fund's valuation policies and procedures, which are reviewed at least annually by the Trustees. Among other things, these procedures allow the Fund to utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers, and other market sources to determine fair value.
The Fund has procedures to determine the fair value of securities and other financial instruments for which market prices are not readily available. Under these procedures, the Valuation Committee convenes on a regular and adhoc basis to review such securities and considers a number of factors, including valuation methodologies and significant unobservable valuation inputs, when arriving at fair value. The Valuation Committee may employ a market-based approach which may use related or comparable assets or liabilities, recent transactions, market multiples, book values, and other relevant information for the investment to determine the fair value of the investment. An income-based valuation approach may also be used in which the anticipated future cash flows of the investment are discounted to calculate fair value. Discounts may also be applied due to the nature or duration of any restrictions on the disposition of the investments. Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuations of such investments, the fair values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had an active market existed. The Valuation Committee employs various methods for calibrating these valuation approaches including a regular review of valuation methodologies, key inputs and assumptions, transactional back-testing or disposition analysis, and reviews of any related market activity.
B. Accounting for Investments Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed). Realized gains and losses on security transactions are determined by the identified cost method. Dividend income and other distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date except for certain dividends on foreign securities which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed after the ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued daily as earned except where collection is not expected. Discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized over the life of the respective securities and are included in interest income.
C. Repurchase Agreements The Fund invests directly with institutions in repurchase agreements. The Fund's custodian receives the collateral, which is marked-to-market daily to determine that the value of the collateral does not decrease below the repurchase price plus accrued interest as earned. If such a decrease occurs, additional collateral will be requested and, when received, will be added to the account to maintain full collateralization.
68
Morgan Stanley Select Dimensions Investment Series
Notes to Financial Statements n June 30, 2012 (unaudited) continued
D. Multiple Class Allocations Investment income, expenses (other than distribution fees), and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated to each class of shares based upon the relative net asset value on the date such items are recognized. Distribution fees are charged directly to the respective class.
E. Foreign Currency Translation The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars as follows: (1) the foreign currency market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities and foreign currency exchange contracts are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period; and (2) purchases, sales, income and expenses are translated at the exchange rates prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The resultant exchange gains and losses are recorded as realized and unrealized gains/losses on foreign currency exchange contracts and foreign currency translations. Pursuant to U.S. federal income tax regulations, certain foreign exchange gains/losses included in realized and unrealized gains/losses are included in or are a reduction of ordinary income for federal income tax purposes. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the changes in the market prices of the securities held.
F. Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders The Fund records dividends and distributions to its shareholders on the ex-dividend date.
G. Expenses Direct expenses are charged to the respective Portfolio and general Fund expenses are allocated on the basis of relative net assets or equally among the Portfolios.
H. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
I. Indemnifications The Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However, the Fund has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.
2. Fair Valuation Measurements
Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820"), defines fair value as the value that the Fund would receive to sell an investment or pay to transfer a liability in a timely transaction with an independent buyer in the principal market, or in the absence of a principal market the most advantageous market for the investment
69
Morgan Stanley Select Dimensions Investment Series
Notes to Financial Statements n June 30, 2012 (unaudited) continued
or liability. ASC 820 establishes a three-tier hierarchy to distinguish between (1) inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in valuing an asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs); and (2) inputs that reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in valuing an asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs) and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund's investments. The inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
• Level 1 unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
• Level 2 other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)
• Level 3 significant unobservable inputs including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments. Factors considered in making this determination may include, but are not limited to, information obtained by contacting the issuer, analysts, or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), analysis of the issuer's financial statements or other available documents and, if necessary, available information concerning other securities in similar circumstances
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities and the determination of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to each security.
The following is a summary of the inputs used to value each Portfolio's investments as of June 30, 2012.

Transfers between investment levels may occur as the markets fluctuate and/or the availability of data used in an investment's valuation changes. The Fund recognizes transfers between the levels as of the end of the period. As of June 30, 2012, the fair market value of certain securities were adjusted due to developments which occurred between the time of the close of the foreign markets on which they trade and the close of business on the NYSE which resulted in their Level 2 classification. The values of the transfers were as follows:

3. Derivatives
Certain Portfolios may, but are not required to, use derivative instruments for a variety of purposes, including hedging, risk management, portfolio management or to earn income. Derivatives are financial instruments whose value is based on the value of an underlying asset, interest rate, index or financial instrument. A derivative instrument often has risks similar to its underlying asset and may have additional risks, including imperfect correlation between the value of the derivative and the underlying asset, risks of default by the counterparty to certain transactions, magnification of losses incurred due to changes in the market value of the securities, instruments, indices or interest rates to which they relate, and risks that the transactions may not be liquid. The use of derivatives involves risks that are different from, and possibly greater than, the risks associated with other portfolio investments. Derivatives may involve the use of highly specialized instruments that require investment techniques and risk analyses different from those associated
82
Morgan Stanley Select Dimensions Investment Series
Notes to Financial Statements n June 30, 2012 (unaudited) continued
with other portfolio investments. All of a Portfolio's holdings, including derivative instruments, are marked-to-market each day with the change in value reflected in unrealized appreciation (depreciation). Upon disposition, a realized gain or loss is recognized.
Certain derivative transactions may give rise to a form of leverage. Leverage magnifies the potential for gain and risk of loss. Leverage associated with derivative transactions may cause the Portfolios to liquidate portfolio positions when it may not be advantageous to do so to satisfy its obligations or to meet earmarking or segregation requirements, pursuant to applicable Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations, or may cause the Portfolios to be more volatile than if the Portfolios had not been leveraged. Although the Adviser and/or Sub-Advisers seek to use derivatives to further the Portfolio's investment objectives, there is no assurance that the use of derivatives will achieve this result.
Following is a description of the derivative instruments and techniques that the Portfolios used during the period and their associated risks:
Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts In connection with its investments in foreign securities, certain Portfolios entered into contracts with banks, brokers or dealers to purchase or sell foreign currencies at a future date. A foreign currency exchange contract ("currency contracts") is a negotiated agreement between two parties to exchange specified amounts of two or more currencies at a specified future time at a specified rate. The rate specified by the currency contract can be higher or lower than the spot rate between the currencies that are the subject of the currency contract. Currency contracts may be used to protect against uncertainty in the level of future foreign currency exchange rates or to gain or modify exposure to a particular currency. Hedging a Portfolio's currency risks involves the risk of mismatching a Portfolio's objectives under a currency contract with the value of securities denominated in a particular currency. Furthermore, such transactions reduce or preclude the opportunity for gain if the value of the currency should move in the direction opposite to the position taken. There is an additional risk to the effect that currency contracts create exposure to currencies in which a Portfolio's securities are not denominated. Unanticipated changes in currency prices may result in poorer overall performance for a Portfolio than if it had not entered into such currency contracts. The use of currency contracts involves the risk of loss from the insolvency or bankruptcy of the counterparty to the contract or the failure of the counterparty to make payments or otherwise comply with the term of the contract. A currency contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in market value is recorded by a Portfolio as unrealized gain or (loss). A Portfolio records realized gains (losses) when the currency contract is closed equal to the difference between the value of the currency contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.

Notes to Financial Statements n June 30, 2012 (unaudited) continued
Futures A futures contract is a standardized agreement between two parties to buy or sell a specific quantity of an underlying instrument at a specific price at a specific future time. The value of a futures contract tends to increase and decrease in tandem with the value of the underlying instrument. Depending on the terms of the particular contract, futures contracts are settled through either physical delivery of the underlying instrument on the settlement date or by payment of a cash settlement amount on the settlement date. During the period the futures contract is open, payments are received from or made to the broker based upon changes in the value of the contract (the variation margin). A decision as to whether, when and how to use futures involves the exercise of skill and judgment and even a well-conceived futures transaction may be unsuccessful because of market behavior or unexpected events. In addition to the derivatives risks discussed above, the prices of futures can be highly volatile, using futures can lower total return, and the potential loss from futures can exceed a Portfolio's initial investment in such contracts.
Swaps An over-the-counter ("OTC") swap agreement is an agreement between two parties pursuant to which the parties exchange payments at specified dates on the basis of a specified notional amount, with the payments calculated by reference to specified securities, indexes, reference rates, currencies or other instruments. A small percentage of swap agreements are cleared through a central clearing house. Most swap agreements provide that when the period payment dates for both parties are the same, the payments are made on a net basis (i.e., the two payment streams are netted out, with only the net amount paid by one party to the other). A Portfolio's obligations or rights under a swap agreement entered into on a net basis will generally be equal only to the net amount to be paid or received under the agreement, based on the relative values of the positions held by each counterparty. Most swap agreements are not entered into or traded on exchanges and there is no central clearing or guaranty function for swaps. These OTC swaps are often subject to credit risk or the risk of default or non-performance by the counterparty. Swaps could result in losses if interest rate or foreign currency exchange rates or credit quality changes are not correctly anticipated by a Portfolio or if the reference index, security or investments do not perform as expected.
When a Portfolio has an unrealized loss on a swap agreement, the Portfolio has instructed the custodian to pledge cash or liquid securities as collateral with a value approximately equal to the amount of the unrealized loss. Collateral pledges are monitored and subsequently adjusted if and when the swap valuations fluctuate. If applicable, cash collateral is included with "Due from (to) Broker" in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

7. Purposes of and Risks Relating to Certain Financial Instruments
Certain Portfolios may invest in mortgage securities, including securities issued by Federal National Mortgage Association ("FNMA") and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC"). These are fixed income securities that derive their value from or represent interests in a pool of mortgages or mortgage securities. An unexpectedly high rate of defaults on the mortgages held by a mortgage pool may adversely affect the value of a mortgage backed security and could result in losses to the Portfolio. The risk of such defaults is generally higher in the case of mortgage pools that include sub-prime mortgages. Sub-prime mortgages refer to loans made to borrowers with weakened credit histories or with a lower capacity to make timely payments on their mortgages. The securities issued by FNMA and FHLMC that are held by the Portfolios are not backed by sub-prime mortgages.
Additionally, securities issued by FNMA and FHLMC are not backed by or entitled to the full faith and credit of the United States; rather, they are supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Department of the Treasury.
The Federal Housing Finance Agency ("FHFA") serves as conservator of FNMA and FHLMC and the U.S. Department of the Treasury has agreed to provide capital as needed to ensure FNMA and FHLMC continue to provide liquidity to the housing and mortgage markets.
Certain Portfolios may enter into repurchase agreements under which a Portfolio lends excess cash and takes possession of securities with an agreement that the counterparty will repurchase such securities. In the event of default on the obligation to repurchase, the Portfolio has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. In the event of default or bankruptcy by the counterparty to the agreement, realization of the collateral proceeds may be subject to certain costs and delays.

8. Federal Income Tax Status
It is the Portfolios' intention to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable and tax-exempt income. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes is required in the financial statements.
Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid annually. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually.
A Portfolio may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which it invests. Such taxes are generally based on income and/or capital gains earned or repatriated. Taxes are accrued based on net investment income, net realized gains and net unrealized appreciation as such income and/or gains are earned. Taxes may also be based on transactions in foreign currency and are accrued based on the value of investments denominated in such currency.
FASB ASC 740-10, Income Taxes Overall, sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Management has concluded there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. If applicable, the Portfolios recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in "interest expense" and penalties in "other expenses" in the Statements of Operations. The Portfolios file tax returns with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, New York and various states. Each of the tax years in the four-year period ended December 31, 2011, remains subject to examination by taxing authorities.
The tax character of distributions paid may differ from the character of distributions shown in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets due to short-term capital gains being treated as ordinary income for tax purposes. The tax character of distributions paid during fiscal 2011and 2010 was as follows:

The amount and character of income and gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. These book/tax differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature.
Temporary differences are primarily due to differing book and tax treatments in the timing of the recognition of gains (losses) on certain investment transactions and the timing of the deductibility of certain expenses.
Permanent differences, primarily due to differing treatments of gains (losses) related to foreign currency transactions, swap transactions, paydown adjustments, expiring capital losses, net operating losses, partnership basis adjustments and certain equity securities designated as issued by passive foreign investment companies, resulted in the following reclassifications among the Portfolio's components of net assets at December 31, 2011:

On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the "Modernization Act") was signed into law. The Modernization Act modernizes several tax provisions related to Regulated Investment Companies ("RICs") and their shareholders. One key change made by the Modernization Act is that capital losses will generally retain their character as short-term or long-term and may be carried forward indefinitely to offset future gains. These losses are utilized before other capital loss carryforwards that expire. Generally, the Modernization Act is effective for taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010.
At December 31, 2011, the following Portfolio had available for Federal income tax purposes unused short-term capital losses that will not expire:

To the extent that capital loss carryforwards are used to offset any future capital gains realized during the carryover period as provided by U.S. Federal income tax regulations, no capital gains tax liability will be incurred by a Portfolio for gains realized and not distributed. To the extent that capital gains are offset, such gains will not be distributed to the shareholders. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the following Portfolios utilized capital loss carryforwards for U.S. Federal income tax purposes of:

9. Expense Offset
The Fund has entered into an arrangement with State Street (the "Custodian"), whereby credits realized on uninvested cash balances were used to offset a portion of the Fund's expenses. If applicable, these custodian credits are shown as "expense offset" in the Statements of Operations.
10. Accounting Pronouncement
In December 2011, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2011-11, Balance Sheet: Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The pronouncement improves disclosures for recognized financial and derivative instruments that are either offset on the balance sheet in accordance with the offsetting guidance in ASC 210-20-45 or ASC 815-10-45 or are subject to an enforceable master netting agreements or similar. The Fund will be required to disclose information about rights to offset and related arrangements (such as collateral agreements) in order to enable financial statement users to understand the effect of those rights and arrangements on its financial position as well as disclose the following (1) gross amounts; (2) amounts offset in the statement of financial position; (3) any other amounts that can be offset in the event of bankruptcy, insolvency or default of any of the parties (including cash and noncash financial collateral); and (4) the Fund's net exposure. The requirements are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and must be applied retrospectively. At this time, the Fund's management is evaluating the implications of ASU 2011-11 and its impact, if any, on the financial statements.
