“Average annual total returns” represent the average annual change in value of an investment over the periods indicated. “Cumulative total returns” represent the total change in value of an investment over the periods indicated.

An index is a statistical composite that tracks a specified financial market or sector. Unlike the Fund, an index does not actually hold a portfolio of securities and therefore does not incur the expenses incurred by the Fund. These expenses negatively impact the performance of the Fund. Also, market returns do not include brokerage commissions that may be payable on secondary market transactions. If brokerage commissions were included, market returns would be lower. The returns shown in the tables above do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption or sale of fund shares. The investment return and principal value of shares of the Fund will vary with changes in market conditions. Shares of the Fund may be worth more or less than their original cost when they are redeemed or sold in the market. The Fund’s past performance is no guarantee of future results.

The iShares MSCI Austria Index Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of publicly traded securities in the aggregate in the Austrian market, as measured by the MSCI Austria Index (the “Index”). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities in the Index, which has a similar investment profile as the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 18.00%, while the Index returned 17.59%.

The Austrian stock market enjoyed double-digit gains for the reporting period but trailed the broad performance of European equities overall. Austria continued to benefit from its central location in Europe; the Austrian economy is tied to both the established economies of the Euro zone in western Europe and the “new economies” of eastern Europe, where demand growth in recent years has been considerably higher than in the Euro zone. However, a global shift toward risk aversion in the last few months of the reporting period led to increased volatility and substantial declines in developing markets, including many of those in eastern Europe. Consequently, the Austrian stock market suffered a sharp decline in May and June 2006, causing it to lag other Euro zone markets.

On the positive side, currency fluctuations enhanced Austrian stock returns for U.S. investors; for the reporting period, the U.S. dollar declined by 3.6% against the euro. In local-currency terms, the Index returned just 12.97%.

Within the Fund, the ten largest holdings accounted for approximately 80% of net assets as of August 31, 2006. Among the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006, two of the top performers for the reporting period were steelmakers Voestalpine AG and Boehler-Uddeholm AG. Both companies reported strong operating results due to healthy demand for steel and higher prices. Strong demand also helped electric utility Oesterreichische Elektrizitaetswirtschafts AG produce a robust return. The weakest performer among the ten largest holdings was energy producer OMV AG, which declined modestly as declining oil prices led to a drop in share price late in the reporting period.

The iShares MSCI Belgium Index Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of publicly traded securities in the aggregate in the Belgian market, as measured by the MSCI Belgium Index (the “Index”). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities in the Index, which has a similar investment profile as the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that included in the Index. For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 25.66%, while the Index returned 26.73%.

Belgium’s stock market enjoyed a strong return for the reporting period and surpassed the broad performance of European equities. Financial stocks, which comprise more than half of the Index, historically have had the greatest impact on Belgian stock performance. Relatively low interest rates, a favorable investment environment, and increased merger activity provided a strong boost to financial stocks during the reporting period. Economic conditions in Belgium also improved after a downturn in the first half of 2005. Consumer confidence began to pick up due to employment growth and tax relief, while manufacturing activity increased as growth accelerated within Belgium’s main trading partners.

Currency fluctuations also enhanced Belgian stock returns for U.S. investors; for the reporting period, the U.S. dollar declined by 3.6% against the euro. In local-currency terms, the Index returned 21.76%.

The ten largest Fund holdings represented approximately 80% of the net assets of the Fund as of August 31, 2006. Each of the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006, posted positive results for the reporting period. The top performer was materials and metals company Umicore, which reported strong earnings growth due to healthy demand and soaring prices for many precious metals. The Fund’s largest holding, banking and insurance company Fortis, also produced a robust gain for the reporting period as it continued to increase its market share. The weakest performers among the ten largest holdings were biotechnology firm UCB SA and telecommunications services provider Belgacom SA.

Total returns for the periods since inception are calculated from the inception date of the Fund (7/25/00). “Average annual total returns” represent the average annual change in value of an investment over the periods indicated. “Cumulative total returns” represent the total change in value of an investment over the periods indicated.

The Fund’s per share net asset value or “NAV” is the value of one share of the Fund as calculated in accordance with the standard formula for valuing mutual fund shares. The NAV return is based on the NAV of the Fund, and the market return is based on the market price per share of the Fund. The price used to calculate market return (“Market Price”) is determined by using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lowest offer on the stock exchange on which the shares of the Fund are listed for trading, as of the time that the Fund’s NAV is calculated. Since shares of the Fund did not trade in the secondary market until several days after the Fund’s inception, for the period from inception to the first day of secondary market trading in shares of the Fund (7/31/00), the NAV of the Fund is used as a proxy for secondary market trading price to calculate market returns. Market and NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested in the Fund at Market Price and NAV, respectively.

The iShares MSCI EMU Index Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of publicly traded securities in the aggregate in the European Monetary Union (“EMU”) markets, as measured by the MSCI EMU Index (the “Index”). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities in the Index, which has a similar investment profile as the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 25.18%, while the Index returned 25.68%.

European stocks enjoyed strong returns during the reporting period. Economic conditions across the continent showed gradual improvement, business and consumer confidence reached multi-year highs in several EMU countries (particularly Germany, Italy, and the Netherlands), and unemployment figures generally decreased. Stocks also benefited from improved corporate earnings growth and increased merger-and-acquisition activity. For U.S. investors, the U.S. dollar’s 3.6% decline against the euro for the reporting period enhanced returns; in local-currency terms, the Index returned 20.75%.

Despite their strong overall performance, EMU stocks gave back some gains in the last few months of the reporting period. Signs of rising inflation led the European Central Bank to raise borrowing costs four times during the reporting period, and the Bank of England also boosted its central rate in August 2006. As a result, volatility in many European markets increased as investors appeared to grow concerned about the impact of higher inflation and rising interest rates on economic growth and corporate earnings.

As of August 31, 2006, the ten largest Fund holdings accounted for approximately 24% of the net assets of the Fund. Each of the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006, registered positive returns for the reporting period. The best performers were financial stocks, led by ING Groep NV (Netherlands) and BNP Paribas SA (France), both of which posted large gains for the reporting period. Two Spanish commercial banks, Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria SA and Banco Santander Central Hispano SA, also posted strong returns due to rising profits and strong revenue growth in their Latin American operations. Utilities firm E.ON AG also enjoyed robust earnings amid increasing demand and rising prices. Two of the weaker performers amongst the ten largest holdings were energy stocks Total SA (France), the Fund’s largest holding, and ENI SpA (Italy). Oil prices were up during the reporting period, although they did trend downward towards the end of the reporting period.

The iShares MSCI France Index Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of publicly traded securities in the aggregate in the French market, as measured by the MSCI France Index (the “Index”). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities in the Index, which has a similar investment profile as the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 24.13%, while the Index returned 24.48%.

France’s stock market posted healthy gains for the reporting period, essentially matching the broad performance of European equities. The strong performance of the French stock market resulted primarily from improving economic conditions. In June 2006, the country’s unemployment rate fell to a four-year low of 9%, benefiting from relaxed labor laws. Better employment figures also seemed to spark an increase in consumer confidence, which helped lift earnings in the retail sector. By the second quarter of 2006, the French economy was growing at its fastest pace in five years.

Within the Fund, the ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006 accounted for approximately 55% of Fund net assets. Nearly all of the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006, gained ground for the reporting period. Two of the top performers were Societe Generale and BNP Paribas SA, both of which reported better-than-expected earnings and appeared to benefit from speculation about potential industry consolidation. Utilities company Suez SA, which agreed to merge with Gaz de France in a transaction that would form the world’s second-largest energy group, also produced a strong gain. On the downside, the only holding to decline for the reporting period was telecommunications services provider France Telecom SA. Fierce competition, particularly from internet-based phone companies, led to disappointing results at the French telecom company.

The iShares MSCI Germany Index Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of publicly traded securities in the aggregate in the German market, as measured by the MSCI Germany Index (the “Index”). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities in the Index, which has a similar investment profile as the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 24.82%, while the Index returned 25.10%.

Germany’s stock market rallied sharply for the reporting period, mirroring the broad performance of European equities. The German economy was struggling as the reporting period began, but economic conditions improved markedly over the one-year period. Business confidence reached its highest level in 15 years as companies increased their investment in plants and equipment. In August 2006, consumer confidence rose to its highest level since 2001, while spending rose late in the period in advance of a 3% increase in the value added tax in 2007. Retailers also enjoyed a strong boost from the World Cup soccer tournament, which Germany hosted in June and July 2006. Finally, by the end of the reporting period, the unemployment rate had fallen to its lowest level in two years, although it still remained above 10%.

The favorable economic environment contributed to solid earnings growth and strong stock market performance. Currency fluctuations also enhanced German stock returns for U.S. investors; for the reporting period, the U.S. dollar declined by 3.6% against the euro. In local-currency terms, the Index returned 20.19%.

The ten largest Fund holdings represented approximately 63% of the net assets of the Fund as of August 31, 2006. Nine of the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006, posted positive returns for the reporting period. Utilities firms E.ON AG and RWE AG were among the top performers, enjoying robust earnings amid increasing demand and rising prices. Pharmaceutical conglomerate Bayer AG produced the best return among the ten largest Fund holdings due to strong results from its drug business and a favorable acquisition of competitor Schering AG. Deutsche Telekom AG, the country’s largest telecommunications services provider, was the only holding to decline for the reporting period. Fierce competition, both in Europe and for its T-Mobile wireless unit in the U.S., led to lowered profit guidance at Deutsche Telekom.

The iShares MSCI Italy Index Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of publicly traded securities in the aggregate in the Italian market, as measured by the MSCI Italy Index (the “Index”). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities in the Index, which has a similar investment profile as the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 20.61%, while the Index returned 20.48%.

The Italian stock market enjoyed strong gains for the reporting period but trailed the broad performance of European equities. Along with the rest of the European Union (“EU”), Italy benefited from gradually improving economic conditions, though Italy’s economy remains the weakest in the EU following its 2005 recession. However, the modest economic recovery helped boost tax revenues, assisting the country’s struggle as the world’s third-largest debt load and its current budget deficit that exceeds EU restrictions. Through a combination of higher tax revenues and budget cuts, Italy appears to be on track to potentially reduce its deficit in 2006.

Currency fluctuations enhanced Italian stock returns for U.S. investors; for the reporting period, the U.S. dollar declined by 3.6% against the euro. In local-currency terms, the Index returned 15.76%.

The ten largest Fund holdings accounted for approximately 70% of the Fund’s net assets as of August 31, 2006. All but one of the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006, produced positive returns for the reporting period. The five best performers were financial services stocks, led by commercial banks Banca Popolare di Verona e Novara Scrl, Capitalia SpA, and Sanpaolo IMI SpA. These companies benefited from an environment of low interest rates, improving economic growth, and increased merger activity. The only stock among the ten largest holdings to decline for the reporting period was telecommunications services provider Telecom Italia SpA, which faced increasing competition and a substantial amount of debt.

The iShares MSCI Netherlands Index Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of publicly traded securities in the aggregate in the Dutch market, as measured by the MSCI Netherlands Index (the “Index”). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities in the Index, which has a similar investment profile as the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 29.53%, while the Index returned 30.15%.

The Netherlands’ stock market enjoyed very strong returns for the reporting period, posting the best results in the European Union (“EU”). The Dutch economy, which is largely dependent on exports to other European countries, showed substantial improvement as economic activity in the Euro zone increased. An export-led recovery in the manufacturing sector and increased business investment sparked by buoyant corporate profits boosted the Dutch economy to its fastest growth rate in more than five years. Rising employment growth led to increased consumer confidence and greater consumer spending. Inflation increased modestly over the past year, but remains below most other EU countries.

Currency fluctuations also enhanced Dutch stock returns for U.S. investors; for the reporting period, the U.S. dollar declined by 3.6% against the euro. In local-currency terms, the Index returned 25.05%.

The ten largest Fund holdings accounted for approximately 76% of Fund net assets as of August 31, 2006. Each of the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006, gained for the reporting period. The top performer was the Fund’s largest holding, financial services provider ING Groep NV, which benefited from an environment of low interest rates, improving economic growth, and increased merger activity. Shipping company TNT NV and chemicals maker Akzo Nobel NV also posted strong returns. The weakest performers among the ten largest holdings included consumer products maker Unilever NV, which struggled with weak revenue growth and declining profit margins, and grocery chain Koninklijke Ahold NV, which reported lower-than-expected earnings and admitted to overstating profits in 2003.

The iShares MSCI Spain Index Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of publicly traded securities in the aggregate in the Spanish market, as measured by the MSCI Spain Index (the “Index”). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities in the Index, which has a similar investment profile as the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 28.09%, while the Index returned 28.32%.

The Spanish stock market posted strong returns and outpaced the broad performance of European equities during the reporting period. Spain’s economy continued to show signs of improvement and grew at a faster rate than its European neighbors. Spain has posted better economic growth than the Euro zone in every quarter since the first quarter of 2003. The main drivers of this growth appear to be low interest rates, a housing and construction boom, and solid consumer spending. In addition, during the first two quarters of 2006, exports outpaced imports for the first time in two years, industrial production surged to its fastest growth rate in six years, and employment growth remained solid. Spain has created over half of all new jobs in the Euro zone over the past four years. The flip side to this robust economic growth is inflation, which at 4% is the highest in the European Union.

Currency fluctuations enhanced Spanish stock returns for U.S. investors; for the reporting period, the U.S. dollar declined by 3.6% against the euro. In local-currency terms, the Index returned 23.29%.

Within the Fund, the ten largest holdings accounted for approximately 77% of Fund net assets as of August 31, 2006. Nine of the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006, delivered positive returns for the reporting period. The top performer was fashion retailer Inditex SA, which reported better-than-expected earnings due to strong sales across Europe and improving profit margins. Endesa SA, Spain’s largest electric utility, posted a healthy return amid rising demand and higher power prices, while construction company Actividades de Construcciones y Servicios SA benefited from the country’s housing boom. The only holding to decline during the reporting period was oil producer Repsol YPF SA, which fell slightly.

The iShares MSCI Sweden Index Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of publicly traded securities in the aggregate in the Swedish market, as measured by the MSCI Sweden Index (the “Index”). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities in the Index, which has a similar investment profile as the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 22.16%, while the Index returned 22.18%.

Sweden’s stock market delivered strong gains for the reporting period, though it lagged the broad performance of European equities. Improving economic conditions, both in Sweden and across Europe, appeared to provide the impetus for the rally in the Swedish stock market. Exports surged as economic activity in the Euro zone – particularly among Sweden’s main trading partners – increased. Unemployment remained well below the levels in most European countries, and better-than-expected manufacturing growth boosted consumer confidence. By the second quarter of 2006, the Swedish economy was growing at its fastest rate in six years. This level of growth led the Riksbank, the Swedish central bank, to raise its benchmark interest rate three times in an effort to keep inflation below its 2% target.

Currency fluctuations enhanced Swedish stock returns for U.S. investors; for the reporting period, the U.S. dollar declined by 4.2% against the Swedish krona. In local-currency terms, the Index returned 16.38%.

The ten largest Fund holdings represented approximately 63% of the net assets of the Fund as of August 31, 2006. All but one of the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006, posted double-digit gains for the reporting period. The top performer was the Class A shares of industrial equipment maker Atlas Copco AB, which benefited from the increased investment in plants and equipment by manufacturing companies around the world. Other strong performers among the ten largest holdings included the Class A shares of financial services provider Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB and the Class B shares of automaker Volvo AB. The Fund’s largest holding, the Class B shares of wireless telecommunications firm Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson, was the only holding in the top ten to decline during the reporting period.

The iShares MSCI Switzerland Index Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of publicly traded securities in the aggregate in the Swiss market, as measured by the MSCI Switzerland Index (the “Index”). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities in the Index, which has a similar investment profile as the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 28.36%, while the Index returned 29.11%.

Switzerland’s stock market posted strong returns and outpaced the broad performance of European equities during the reporting period. The Swiss economy, which is largely dependent on exports to other European countries, showed substantial improvement as economic activity in the Euro zone increased. This export-led recovery boosted the Swiss economy to its fastest growth rate in five years (as of the fourth quarter 2005), and manufacturing growth in Switzerland reached an all-time high in August 2006. Although the upbeat economic environment provided a lift to Switzerland’s stock market, it also led to the highest year-over-year inflation figures since 2000. As a result, the Swiss National Bank raised its benchmark interest rate three times during the reporting period. Nonetheless, Swiss interest rates remain the lowest in Europe.

Currency fluctuations enhanced Swiss stock returns for U.S. investors; for the reporting period, the U.S. dollar declined by 1.7% against the Swiss franc. The Swiss currency also fell 2% against the euro, which made Swiss exports to Euro zone countries less expensive.

The ten largest Fund holdings accounted for approximately 73% of Fund net assets as of August 31, 2006. Each of the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006 posted double-digit gains for the reporting period. With manufacturing activity in high gear, the top performer among the ten largest holdings was industrial equipment maker ABB Ltd. Financial conglomerate UBS AG and agricultural chemicals manufacturer Syngenta AG also posted strong returns as both companies reported better-than-expected earnings. The lowest return among the Fund’s ten largest holdings came from pharmaceutical company Novartis AG, though it still performed well for the reporting period.

The iShares MSCI United Kingdom Index Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of publicly traded securities in the aggregate in the British market, as measured by the MSCI United Kingdom Index (the “Index”). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities in the Index, which has a similar investment profile as the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 20.61%, while the Index returned 21.36%.

The United Kingdom’s stock market enjoyed a strong return for the reporting period, though it modestly trailed the broad performance of European equities. Economic conditions in the United Kingdom (“U.K.”), which were sluggish as the reporting period began, showed significant signs of improvement as the reporting period progressed. The housing market picked up as mortgage approvals reached record levels, consumer spending surged, and exports increased. Although the upbeat economic environment provided a lift to the stock market, it also led to the highest monthly inflation figures since 1997. The Bank of England (“BOE”) raised its benchmark interest rate in August 2006 — for the first time in two years — after inflation came in above the BOE’s 2% target for three straight months.

Currency fluctuations enhanced U.K. stock returns for U.S. investors; for the reporting period, the U.S. dollar declined by 4.7% against the British pound. In local-currency terms, the Index returned just 14.75%.

The ten largest Fund holdings represented approximately 46% of the net assets of the Fund as of August 31, 2006. Among the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006, the top performer for the reporting period was pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca PLC. Favorable news regarding the company’s cholesterol drug, as well as efforts to cut the time and costs of drug development, helped boost AstraZeneca’s stock price. Several financial stocks in the top ten also posted strong returns during the reporting period—Barclays PLC, HBOS PLC, and Royal Bank of Scotland Group PLC all rose sharply after reporting better-than-expected profits. The only stock among the Fund’s ten largest holdings to decline for the reporting period was telecommunications services provider Vodafone Group PLC.


22		2006 iSHARES ANNUAL REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS

Shareholder Expenses (Unaudited)

iSHARES^®, INC.

As a shareholder of an iShares Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions on purchases and sales of fund shares and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other fund expenses. The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from March 1, 2006 to August 31, 2006.

ACTUAL EXPENSES

The first line under each Fund in 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 for your Fund 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 under each Fund in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund 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 transactional costs, such as brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under each Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Notes to the Financial Statements

iSHARES^®, INC.

iShares, Inc. (the “Company”), is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland on September 1, 1994 pursuant to amended and restated Articles of Incorporation. As of August 31, 2006, the Company offered 24 investment portfolios or funds.

These financial statements relate only to the iShares MSCI Austria, iShares MSCI Belgium, iShares MSCI EMU, iShares MSCI France, iShares MSCI Germany, iShares MSCI Italy, iShares MSCI Netherlands, iShares MSCI Spain, iShares MSCI Sweden, iShares MSCI Switzerland and iShares MSCI United Kingdom Index Funds (each, a “Fund,” collectively, the “Funds”).

The investment objective of each Fund is to seek investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of publicly traded equity securities in the aggregate in a particular market, as measured by a particular equity securities index compiled by Morgan Stanley Capital International Inc. (“MSCI”). The investment adviser uses a “passive” or index approach to achieve each Fund’s investment objective. Each of the Funds is classified as a non-diversified fund under the 1940 Act. Non-diversified funds generally hold securities of fewer companies than diversified funds and may be more susceptible to the risks associated with these particular companies, or to a single economic, political or regulatory occurrence affecting these companies.

Each Fund invests in the securities of foreign issuers of a single country or region, which may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with securities of U.S. issuers. Such risks include, but are not limited to: generally less liquid and less efficient securities markets; generally greater price volatility; exchange rate fluctuations and exchange controls; imposition of restrictions on the expatriation of funds or other assets of the Fund; less publicly available information about issuers; the imposition of withholding or other taxes; higher transaction and custody costs; settlement delays and risk of loss attendant in settlement procedures; difficulties in enforcing contractual obligations; less regulation of securities markets; different accounting, disclosure and reporting requirements; more substantial governmental involvement in the economy; higher inflation rates; greater social, economic and political uncertainties; the risk of nationalization or expropriation of assets and the risk of war.

Under the Company’s organizational documents, the Funds’ officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred.

1.	*SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES*

The following significant accounting policies are consistently followed by the Company in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for investment companies. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

SECURITY VALUATION

The securities and other assets of each Fund are generally valued using market valuations. A market valuation generally means a valuation (i) obtained from an exchange, a pricing service or a major market maker (or dealer), (ii) based on a price quotation or other equivalent indication of value supplied by an exchange, a pricing service or a major market maker (or dealer) or (iii) based on amortized cost. In the case of shares of funds that are not traded on an exchange, a market valuation means such fund’s published net asset value per share. The investment adviser may use various pricing services or discontinue the use of any pricing service. A price obtained from a pricing service based on such pricing service’s valuation matrix may be considered a market valuation. In the event that current market valuations are not readily available or such valuations

Notes to the Financial Statements (Continued)

iSHARES^®, INC.

do not reflect current market values, the affected investments will be valued using fair value pricing pursuant to the pricing policy and procedures approved by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”).

SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INCOME RECOGNITION

Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date, net of any foreign taxes withheld at source, and interest income is accrued daily. Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined using the specific identification method.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies, as well as investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates deemed appropriate by the investment adviser. Any use of a different rate from the rates used by MSCI may adversely affect a Fund’s ability to track its underlying index. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars on the respective dates of such transactions.

Each Fund does not isolate the effect of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates from the effect of fluctuations in the market prices of securities. Such fluctuations are reflected by the Funds as a component of realized and unrealized gains and losses from investments for financial reporting purposes.

FOREIGN TAXES

Italy may levy taxes on stock dividends at a rate of 27.0%, based on the par value of stock dividends received by the iShares MSCI Italy Index Fund. These taxes are paid by the Fund receiving the stock dividends and, if any, are disclosed in the Statements of Operations.

The iShares MSCI EMU Index Fund and iShares MSCI Sweden Index Fund may pay foreign taxes on certain taxable corporate events (i.e., spin-offs and tender offers) by Swedish companies whose securities are held by the Funds. The foreign taxes paid by the Funds, if any, are disclosed in their respective Statement of Operations.

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS

Distributions to shareholders from net investment income, if any, including any net foreign currency gains, are declared and distributed at least annually by each Fund. Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, generally are declared and distributed once a year. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and net realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Dividends and distributions are paid in U.S. dollars and cannot be automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Funds.

For the years ended August 31, 2006 and August 31, 2005, the tax characterization of distributions paid for each Fund represents ordinary income. The total distributions and distributions per share are disclosed in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and the Financial Highlights for all Funds.

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

Each Fund is treated as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes. It is the policy of each Fund to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions applicable to regulated investment companies, as defined under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and to annually distribute substantially all of its net income and any net gains (taking into account any capital loss carryforwards) sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income and excise taxes. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes was required for the year ended August 31, 2006.

From November 1, 2005 to August 31, 2006, certain Funds incurred net realized capital losses. As permitted by tax regulations, these Funds have elected to defer these losses and treat them as arising in the year ending August 31, 2007, as follows:


*iShares MSCI Index Fund*	Deferred Net Realized Capital Losses
France	$	146,138
Germany		4,212,074
Netherlands		260,715

Net capital loss carryforwards may be applied against any net realized taxable gains in each succeeding year or until their respective expiration dates, whichever occurs first.

The Funds may own shares in certain foreign investment entities, referred to, under U.S. tax law, as “passive foreign investment companies.” The Funds may elect to mark-to-market annually the shares of each passive foreign investment company and would be required to distribute to shareholders any such mark-to-market gains.

Each Fund reclassifies at the end of its tax year certain amounts to paid-in-capital from accumulated net realized gain (loss) on investments and foreign currency transactions and accumulated net investment income (loss), respectively, as a result of permanent book and tax differences primarily attributed to net investment loss, return of capital, passive foreign investment companies, realized foreign currency gains and losses and gains and losses on in-kind redemptions. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset values per share.

As of August 31, 2006, gross unrealized appreciation and gross unrealized depreciation based on cost for federal income tax purposes were as follows:


*iShares MSCI Index Fund*	*Tax Cost*		Gross Unrealized Appreciation		Gross Unrealized Depreciation			Net Unrealized Appreciation

REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS

Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with banks and securities dealers. These transactions involve the purchase of securities with a simultaneous commitment to resell the securities to the bank or the dealer at an agreed-upon date and price. A repurchase agreement is accounted for as an investment by the Fund, collateralized by securities, which are delivered to the Fund’s custodian or to an agent bank under a tri-party agreement. The securities are marked-to-market daily and additional securities are acquired as needed, to ensure that their value equals or exceeds the repurchase price plus accrued interest.

2.	*AGREEMENTS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES*

Pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement with the Company, Barclays Global Fund Advisors (“BGFA”) manages the investment of each Fund’s assets.

Notes to the Financial Statements (Continued)

iSHARES^®, INC.

The Company issues and redeems capital shares of each Fund only in aggregations of a specified number of shares (each, a “Creation Unit”) at net asset value. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares of each Fund are not redeemable. Transactions in capital shares for each Fund are disclosed in detail in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.

5.	*LOANS OF PORTFOLIO SECURITIES*

Each Fund may lend its investment securities to approved borrowers, such as brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. The borrower pledges and maintains with the Fund collateral consisting of cash, an irrevocable letter of credit issued by a bank, or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government. The initial collateral received by each Fund is required to have a value of at least 102% of the market value of the loaned securities for securities traded on U.S. exchanges and a value of at least 105% for all other securities. The collateral is maintained thereafter, at a value equal to at least 100% of the current market value of the securities on loan. The risks to the Funds of securities lending are that the borrower may not provide additional collateral when required or may not return the securities when due.

As of August 31, 2006, certain Funds had loaned securities which were collateralized by cash. Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the cash collateral received was invested in a joint account with other investment funds managed by BGFA. The joint account invests in securities with remaining maturities of 397 days or less, repurchase agreements and money market mutual funds, including money market funds managed by BGFA. Repurchase agreements held in the joint account are fully collateralized by U.S. Government securities or non-U.S. Government debt securities. The market value of the securities on loan as of August 31, 2006 and the value of the related collateral are disclosed in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Securities lending income, as disclosed in the Funds’ Statements of Operations, represents the income earned from the investment of the cash collateral, net of rebates paid to, or fees paid by, borrowers and less the fees paid to BGI as securities lending agent.

6.	*RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT*

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, (“FIN 48”) “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.” FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” This interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. It also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of applying the various provisions of FIN 48.

These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 2006 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

126		2006 iSHARES ANNUAL REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS

Board Review and Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts^*(Unaudited)

iSHARES^®, INC.

Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), including a majority of Directors who are not interested persons of the Company (as that term is defined in the 1940 Act) (the “Independent Directors”), is required annually to consider the Investment Advisory Contract between the Company and BGFA (the “Advisory Contract”) on behalf of the Funds. As required by Section 15(c), the Board requested and BGFA provided such information as the Board deemed reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Advisory Contract. At a meeting held on June 14-15, 2006, the Board approved the selection of BGFA and the continuance of the Advisory Contract, based on its review of qualitative and quantitative information provided by BGFA. In selecting BGFA and approving the Advisory Contract for the Funds, the Board, including the Independent Directors, advised by their independent counsel, considered the following factors, none of which was controlling, and made the following conclusions:

NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES PROVIDED BY BGFA

The Board determined that there would be no diminution in the scope of services required of BGFA under the Advisory Contract for the coming year as compared to the scope of services provided by BGFA over the past year. In reviewing the scope of these services, the Board considered BGFA’s investment philosophy and experience, noting that BGFA and its affiliates have committed significant resources over time, including over the past year, to the support of the Funds. The Board also considered BGFA’s compliance program and its compliance record with respect to the Funds. In that regard, the Board noted that BGFA reports to the Board about portfolio management and compliance matters on a periodic basis in connection with regularly scheduled meetings of the Board, and has made appropriate officers available as needed to provide further assistance with these matters. The Board also reviewed the background and experience of the persons responsible for the day-to-day management of the Funds. In addition to the above considerations, the Board reviewed and considered BGFA’s investment processes and strategies, and matters related to BGFA’s portfolio transaction policies and procedures. The Board further noted that BGFA does not serve as investment adviser for any other series of registered investment companies with substantially similar investment objectives and strategies as the Funds; therefore, no comparative performance information was available. However, the Board also noted that the Funds had met their investment objectives consistently since their respective inception dates. Based on this review, the Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by BGFA to the Funds under the Advisory Contract were appropriate and mitigated in favor of the Board’s approval of the Advisory Contract for the coming year.

FUNDS’ EXPENSES AND PERFORMANCE OF THE FUNDS

The Board reviewed statistical information prepared by Lipper Inc. (“Lipper”), an independent provider of investment company data, regarding the expense ratio components, including advisory fees, waivers/reimbursements, and gross and net total expenses of each Fund in comparison with the same information for other registered funds objectively selected solely by Lipper as comprising each Fund’s applicable peer group (the “Lipper Peer Group”). In addition, the Board reviewed statistical information prepared by Lipper regarding the performance of each Fund for the one-, three- and five-year, and “last quarter” periods ended March 31, 2006, as applicable, and a comparison of each Fund’s performance to that of the funds in its Lipper Peer Group for the same periods. Because there are few, if any, exchange traded funds or index funds that track indices similar to those tracked by the Funds, the Lipper Peer Groups included mutual funds, closed-end funds, exchange traded funds, and funds with differing investment objective classifications, investment focuses and other characteristics (e.g., actively managed funds and funds sponsored by “at cost” service providers). In support of its review of the statistical information, the Board was provided with a detailed description of the methodology used by Lipper to determine the applicable Lipper Peer Groups and to prepare this information. The Board further noted that due to the limitations in providing comparable funds in the various Lipper Peer Groups, the statistical information may or may not provide meaningful direct comparisons to the Funds. The Board noted that most of the Funds generally performed in line with the funds in their respective Lipper Peer Groups over relevant periods; however, certain of the Funds may have underperformed or outperformed funds in their respective Lipper Peer Groups over relevant periods, but any such Funds also performed in line with their relevant benchmarks over such periods. The Board also noted that the investment advisory fees and overall expenses for the Funds were generally lower than or in line with the investment advisory fee rates and overall expenses of the funds in their respective Lipper Peer Groups. The Board also reviewed statistical information from Lipper displaying the effects of the proposed extension of breakpoints in the investment advisory fee rates for certain of the Funds (as discussed below) at various

assets levels of such Funds as compared to their Lipper Peer Groups. Based on this review, the Board concluded that the investment advisory fees and expense levels and the historical performance of each Fund, as managed by BGFA, as compared to the investment advisory fees and expense levels and performance of the funds in the relevant Lipper Peer Group, were satisfactory for the purposes of approving the Advisory Contract for the coming year.

COSTS OF SERVICES PROVIDED TO FUNDS AND PROFITS REALIZED BY BGFA AND AFFILIATES

The Board reviewed information about the profitability to BGFA of the Funds based on the fees payable to BGFA and its affiliates (including fees under the Advisory Contract), and all other sources of revenue and expense to BGFA and its affiliates for the last calendar year. The Board discussed the sources of direct and ancillary revenue with management, including the revenues to BGI from securities lending by the Company (including any securities lending by the Funds). The Board also discussed BGFA’s profit margin as reflected in the Funds’ profitability analysis and reviewed information regarding economies of scale (as discussed below). Based on this review, the Board concluded that the profits to be realized by BGFA and its affiliates under the Advisory Contract and from other relationships between the Funds and BGFA and/or its affiliates, if any, were within the range the Board considered reasonable and appropriate.

ECONOMIES OF SCALE

FEES AND SERVICES PROVIDED FOR OTHER COMPARABLE FUNDS/ACCOUNTS MANAGED BY BGFA AND ITS AFFILIATES

The Board considered the Funds’ annual investment advisory fee rates under the Advisory Contract in comparison to the investment advisory/management fee rates for other funds/accounts for which BGFA (or its affiliate, BGI) provides investment advisory/management services, including other funds registered under the 1940 Act, collective funds and separate accounts (together, the “Other Accounts”). The Board noted that comparative investment advisory/management fee information was not available, as BGFA and its affiliates do not manage any Other Accounts with substantially similar investment objectives and strategies as the Funds. However, the Board noted that BGFA provided the Board with general information regarding how the level of services provided to the Other Accounts differed from the level of services provided to the Funds. Based on this review, the Board determined that the investment advisory fee rates under the Advisory Contract, with the proposed extension of breakpoints, do not constitute fees that are so disproportionately large as to bear no reasonable relationship to the services rendered

and that could not have been the product of arm’s-length bargaining, and concluded that the investment advisory fee rates under the Advisory Contract, with the proposed extension of breakpoints, are fair and reasonable.

OTHER BENEFITS TO BGFA AND/OR ITS AFFILIATES

The Board reviewed any ancillary revenue received by BGFA and/or its affiliates in connection with the services provided to the Funds by BGFA, such as any payment of revenue to BGI, the Company’s securities lending agent, for loaning any portfolio securities, and payment of advisory fees and/or administration fees to BGFA and BGI in connection with any investments by the Funds in other funds for which BGFA provides investment advisory services and/or BGI provides administration services. The Board noted that BGFA does not use soft dollars or consider the value of research or other services that may be provided to BGFA (including its affiliates) in selecting brokers for portfolio transactions for the Funds. The Board further noted that any portfolio transactions on behalf of the Funds placed through a BGFA affiliate are reported to the Board pursuant to Rule 17e-1 under the 1940 Act. The Board concluded that any such ancillary benefits would not be disadvantageous to the Funds’ shareholders.

Based on this analysis, the Board determined that the Advisory Contract, including the investment advisory fee rates, with the proposed extension of breakpoints, are fair and reasonable in light of all relevant circumstances, and concluded that it is in the best interest of the Funds and their shareholders to approve the Advisory Contract, with the fee schedule to the Advisory Contract as proposed to be amended to reflect the extension of breakpoints, for the coming year.

Supplemental Information (Unaudited)

iSHARES^®, INC.

The tables that follow present information about the differences between the daily market price on secondary markets for shares of an iShares Fund and that Fund’s net asset value. Net asset value, or “NAV”, is the price per share at which each Fund issues and redeems shares. It is calculated in accordance with the standard formula for valuing mutual fund shares. The “Market Price” of each iShares Fund generally is determined using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lowest offer on the stock exchange on which the shares of such Fund is listed for trading, as of the time that the Fund’s NAV is calculated. Each Fund’s Market Price may be at, above or below its NAV. The NAV of each Fund will fluctuate with changes in the market value of its portfolio holdings. The Market Price of each Fund will fluctuate in accordance with changes in its NAV, as well as market supply and demand.

Premiums or discounts are the differences (expressed as a percentage) between the NAV and Market Price of a Fund on a given day, generally at the time NAV is calculated. A premium is the amount that a Fund is trading above the reported NAV, expressed as a percentage of the NAV. A discount is the amount that a Fund is trading below the reported NAV, expressed as a percentage of the NAV.

The following information shows the frequency distributions of premiums and discounts for each of the iShares Funds included in this report. The information shown for each Fund is for five calendar years (or for each full calendar quarter completed after the inception date of such Fund if less than five years) through the date of the most recent calendar quarter-end. The specific periods covered for each Fund are disclosed in the table for such Fund.

Each line in the table shows the number of trading days in which the iShares Fund traded within the premium/discount range indicated. The number of trading days in each premium/discount range is also shown as a percentage of the total number of trading days in the period covered by each table. All data presented here represents past performance, which cannot be used to predict future results.

The iShares MSCI Australia Index Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of publicly traded securities in the aggregate in the Australian market, as measured by the MSCI Australia Index (the “Index”). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities in the Index, which has a similar investment profile as the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 22.35%, while the Index returned 21.71%.

The Australian market posted sound gains for the reporting period. Australia’s economy continued to appear strong during the reporting period: now in its 15^thyear of uninterrupted expansion, the longest expansion in Australia since 1945, the Australian economy grew at an annualized rate of 2.6% in the second quarter of 2006. Export trade remained healthy for most of the reporting period, due in part to demand from China for coal and iron ore.

Inflation levels rose during the reporting period, reaching 4.0% for the second quarter of 2006, compared with 2.5% for the second quarter of 2005. In response, the Reserve Bank of Australia increased short-term interest rates twice during the reporting period, bringing the rate to 6.00% in August 2006.

The Fund’s ten largest holdings accounted for approximately 51% of the Fund’s net assets as of August 31, 2006. All of the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006 delivered gains for the reporting period. Metals and mining company Rio Tinto Ltd. posted the strongest gains, followed by QBE Insurance Group Ltd. BHP Billiton Ltd., a metals and mining company that represents the Fund’s largest holding at almost 12% of Fund net assets, performed well. Woodside Petroleum Ltd. and retailer Woolworths Ltd. also contributed to positive Fund performance. Real estate conglomerate Westfield Group delivered the most modest gains among the ten largest holdings.

Total returns for the periods since inception are calculated from the inception date of the Fund (7/10/00). “Average annual total returns” represent the average annual change in value of an investment over the periods indicated. “Cumulative total returns” represent the total change in value of an investment over the periods indicated.

Certain sectors and markets performed exceptionally well based on market conditions during the one-year period. Investors should not expect that such exceptional returns will be repeated.

The Fund’s per share net asset value or “NAV” is the value of one share of the Fund as calculated in accordance with the standard formula for valuing mutual fund shares. The NAV return is based on the NAV of the Fund, and the market return is based on the market price per share of the Fund. The price used to calculate market return (“Market Price”) is determined by using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lowest offer on the stock exchange on which the shares of the Fund are listed for trading, as of the time that the Fund’s NAV is calculated. Since shares of the Fund did not trade in the secondary market until several days after the Fund’s inception, for the period from inception to the first day of secondary market trading in shares of the Fund (7/14/00), the NAV of the Fund is used as a proxy for secondary market trading price to calculate market returns. Market and NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested in the Fund at Market Price and NAV, respectively.

The iShares MSCI Brazil Index Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of publicly traded securities in the aggregate in the Brazilian market, as measured by the MSCI Brazil Index (the “Index”). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities in the Index, which has a similar investment profile as the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 41.13%, while the Index returned 43.63%.

Brazil’s market delivered robust gains for the reporting period, fueled largely by escalating oil prices and a strengthening currency. Oil prices, which continued to climb during the reporting period, reached a high of $77.03 per barrel on August 7^thfollowing news of increased violence in the Middle East and the shutdown of BP’s largest oil field in the U.S. The increase in oil prices benefited the Brazilian market whose largest company, oil company Petroleo Brasileiro SA, represented more than 27% of the Index as of August 31, 2006. The Brazilian currency, the real, continued to appreciate against the U.S. dollar during the reporting period, largely because Brazil’s high interest rate levels continued to attract strong currency inflows. The real dipped in July, however, as the Brazilian central bank cut its benchmark rate to a 20-year low of 14.75%.

The Fund’s ten largest holdings accounted for approximately 65% of the Fund’s net assets as of August 31, 2006. Performance among the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006 was strong for the reporting period. Gerdau SA and Unibanco Uniao de Bancos Brasilieros SA delivered the strongest gains among the ten largest holdings. Oil company Petroleo Brasileiro SA, whose preferred and common shares are the two largest Fund holdings, performed well, as did Banco Bradesco SA and Banco Itau Holding Financeira SA. Companhia Vale do Rio Doce, the world’s largest iron ore producer, also contributed positively to Fund performance for the reporting period.

All of the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006 had positive returns for the reporting period.

The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities in the Index, which has a similar investment profile as the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 26.44%, while the Index returned 30.58%.

Emerging markets, as represented by the Index, delivered strong gains for the reporting period. Constituent markets generally benefited for much of the reporting period from rising commodities prices and strong export growth. Although rising interest rates in the U.S. and higher oil prices led to a pullback in market strength toward the end of the reporting period, emerging markets as a group overcame the setbacks to deliver healthy returns for the reporting period.

The Russian market delivered exceptional returns during the reporting period, as the Russian economy surged. According to the Economy Ministry, Russia’s economy grew at a 5.5% annualized pace in the first quarter of 2006 and a 7.1% pace in the second quarter of 2006. Because oil and gas exports represent more than 60% of Russia’s export trade, the rise in oil and gas prices during the reporting period played a large role in supporting economic growth and strong market returns. Another major factor benefiting returns for Russia was the liberalization of shares of gas company OAO Gazprom, whose market capitalization grew as MSCI removed the limited investability factor from Gazprom shares. Towards the end of the reporting period, Russia catapulted into the top five emerging markets in terms of market capitalization for the first time.

The South Korean market delivered very strong gains for the reporting period. Because South Korea depends heavily on exports for its economic health, it is sensitive to the economic cycles of its export markets, particularly the U.S., China and Japan. During much of the reporting period, this relationship benefited South Korea, as export demand from each of these countries continued to be strong. In May 2006, higher global inflation and rising oil prices appeared to lead to concerns that economic growth would slow globally, dampening export demand. As a result, the South Korean market dropped 7.63% in May 2006, its largest monthly decline for the year to date. However, South Korea overcame this setback in the final months of the reporting period as its export demand increased. In August 2006, exports rose 18.7% from a year earlier, driven largely by demand for computer and electronic products in the U.S., Japan and China.

The Taiwanese market delivered modest gains for the reporting period. Because Taiwan’s exports account for almost half of its output, it is sensitive to the economic cycles of its two major export markets, China and the U.S. For much of the reporting period, ongoing economic growth in China and the U.S. translated into strong demand for exports from Taiwan. In May 2006, however, concerns surfaced that higher interest rates in the U.S. and

rising oil prices would slow demand for exports, which led to declines among many emerging markets that are dependent on export activity. Although Taiwan participated in the general decline, its 6.69% drop in the month of May 2006 was less than the decline of the overall emerging markets for the month of May. As the reporting period came to a close, the Taiwanese market appeared to be driven higher by one of its leading technology constituents, Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. Ltd., which makes Apple’s iPod music players. Taiwan’s broad market received a further boost when the U.S. Federal Reserve Board suggested that it would hold off further interest rate increases in the U.S., a pause that could help export growth in Taiwan.

The Fund’s ten largest holdings accounted for approximately 30% of the Fund’s net assets as of August 31, 2006. Performance was mostly positive among the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006. The strongest performer was the ADR shares of integrated oil and gas company LUKOIL (Russia). Kookmin Bank ADR (South Korea) also performed well, as did Samsung Electronics Co, Ltd. GDR (South Korea), the Fund’s largest holding. The ADR shares of oil company Petroleo Brasileiro SA (Brazil) delivered strong gains. United Microelectonics Corp. ADR (Taiwan) and Chunghwa Telecom Co. Ltd. ADR (Taiwan) were the only securities among the Fund’s ten largest holdings to post losses for the reporting period.

The Hong Kong market delivered positive returns for the reporting period. Hong Kong’s economy continued to expand during the reporting period, albeit at a more moderate pace than in previous years, with an annualized gross domestic product (GDP) growth of 5.2% for the second quarter of 2006. A major contributor to Hong Kong’s economic state and its market returns is mainland China, which is Hong Kong’s main trading partner and its leading source of tourists. As the Chinese economy continued to expand during the reporting period, Hong Kong’s economy benefited. A strong real estate market also contributed positively to market returns during the reporting period.

The Fund’s ten largest holdings accounted for approximately 58% of the Fund’s net assets as of August 31, 2006.

The Fund’s per share net asset value or “NAV” is the value of one share of the Fund as calculated in accordance with the standard formula for valuing mutual fund shares. The NAV return is based on the NAV of the Fund, and the market return is based on the market price per share of the Fund. The price used to calculate market return (“Market Price”) is determined by using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lowest offer on the stock exchange on which the shares of the Fund are listed for trading, as of the time that the Fund’s NAV is calculated. As the Fund has a NAV which is determined prior to the opening of the regular trading day on the stock exchange on which it is listed, the market return is calculated using the midpoint of the bid/ask spread as of the opening of regular trading on the exchange. Market and NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested in the Fund at Market Price and NAV, respectively.

For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 12.35%, while the Index returned 13.07%.

The Malaysian market delivered positive returns for the reporting period due, in part, to the expansion of the Malaysian economy. For the second quarter of 2006, gross domestic product (GDP) growth was 5.9%, rising from 4.1% in the second quarter of 2005. Exports play an important role in Malaysia’s economy, and the country experienced rising foreign demand for some of its leading export commodities during the reporting period. In particular, demand rose for crude petroleum and natural gas as increased violence in the Middle East and the shutdown of BP’s largest oil field in the U.S. curtailed supply. Oil prices, which continued to climb during the reporting period, reached a high of $77.03 per barrel on August 7^th.

The Fund’s ten largest holdings accounted for approximately 53% of the Fund’s net assets as of August 31, 2006. Among the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006, performance was mostly positive for the reporting period. Agriculture company IOI Corp.

Malayan Banking Bhd, the Fund’s largest holding at almost 11% of Fund net assets, also contributed positively to Fund performance.

For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 44.11%, while the Index returned 43.06%.

Mexico’s market posted robust gains for the reporting period, fueled by continued economic expansion in the U.S. and escalating oil prices. Mexico relies on the U.S. for approximately 80% of its exports, so its economic health is closely tied to the economic cycle of the U.S. This benefited the Mexican economy during the reporting period, as continued economic growth in the U.S. translated into ongoing demand for exports from Mexico. Rising oil prices also provided a boost to economic growth, with oil accounting for approximately 15% of Mexico’s export earnings. Oil prices continued to climb during the reporting period, reaching a high of $77.03 per barrel on August 7^thfollowing news of increased violence in the Middle East and the shutdown of BP’s largest oil field in the U.S.

The Fund’s ten largest holdings accounted for approximately 77% of the Fund’s net assets as of August 31, 2006.

Total returns for the periods since inception are calculated from the inception date of the Fund (10/25/01). “Average annual total returns” represent the average annual change in value of an investment over the periods indicated. “Cumulative total returns” represent the total change in value of an investment over the periods indicated.

The Fund’s per share net asset value or “NAV” is the value of one share of the Fund as calculated in accordance with the standard formula for valuing mutual fund shares. The NAV return is based on the NAV of the Fund, and the market return is based on the market price per share of the Fund. The price used to calculate market return (“Market Price”) is determined by using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lowest offer on the stock exchange on which the shares of the Fund are listed for trading, as of the time that the Fund’s NAV is calculated. Since shares of the Fund did not trade in the secondary market until one day after the Fund’s inception, for the period from inception to the first day of secondary market trading in shares of the Fund (10/26/01), the NAV of the Fund is used as a proxy for secondary market trading price to calculate market returns. Market and NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested in the Fund at Market Price and NAV, respectively.

The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities in the Index, which has a similar investment profile as the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 19.17%, while the Index returned 19.01%.

The markets comprising the Index — Australia, Hong Kong, New Zealand and Singapore, all delivered gains for the reporting period.

Australia’s economy continued to appear strong during the reporting period: now in its 15^thyear of uninterrupted expansion, the longest expansion in Australia since 1945, the Australian economy grew at an annualized rate of 2.6% in the second quarter of 2006. Export trade remained healthy for most of the reporting period, due in part to demand from China for coal and iron ore. Inflation levels rose during the reporting period, reaching 4.0% for the second quarter of 2006, compared with 2.5% for the second quarter of 2005. In response, the Reserve Bank of Australia increased short-term interest rates twice during the reporting period, bringing the rate to 6.00% in August 2006.

Hong Kong’s economy continued to expand during the reporting period, albeit at a more moderate pace than in previous years, with an annualized gross domestic product (“GDP”) growth of 5.2% for the second quarter of 2006. A major contributor to Hong Kong’s economic state and its market returns is mainland China, which is Hong Kong’s main trading partner and its leading source of tourists. As the Chinese economy continued to expand during the reporting period, Hong Kong’s economy benefited. A strong real estate market also contributed positively to market returns during the reporting period.

Singapore’s market posted solid gains for the reporting period, although it gave back some of those gains in the final months of the reporting period. The Singaporean economy, which depends heavily on exports, continued to benefit from strong export trade to the U.S. and to its Asian neighbors for much of the reporting period. By May 2006, however, global inflation and interest rate concerns hampered export growth and weighed on market performance. During the month of May alone, the Singapore market suffered its largest single-month loss in more than three years. For the second quarter of 2006, annualized GDP growth was reported at 8.1%, exceeding many analysts’ expectations, but down in comparison from the heady 14% for the second quarter of 2005.

Total returns for the periods since inception are calculated from the inception date of the Fund (2/3/03). “Average annual total returns” represent the average annual change in value of an investment over the periods indicated. “Cumulative total returns” represent the total change in value of an investment over the periods indicated.

The Fund’s per share net asset value or “NAV” is the value of one share of the Fund as calculated in accordance with the standard formula for valuing mutual fund shares. The NAV return is based on the NAV of the Fund, and the market return is based on the market price per share of the Fund. The price used to calculate market return (“Market Price”) is determined by using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lowest offer on the stock exchange on which the shares of the Fund are listed for trading, as of the time that the Fund’s NAV is calculated. Since shares of the Fund did not trade in the secondary market until several days after the Fund’s inception, for the period from inception to the first day of secondary market trading in shares of the Fund (2/7/03), the NAV of the Fund is used as a proxy for secondary market trading price to calculate market returns. Market and NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested in the Fund at Market Price and NAV, respectively.

The iShares MSCI South Africa Index Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of publicly traded securities in the aggregate in the South African market, as measured by the MSCI South Africa Index (the “Index”). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities in the Index, which has a similar investment profile as the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 20.06%, while the Index returned 21.61%.

The South African market logged robust gains through April 2006, followed by a loss of almost half of those gains in the final four months of the reporting period. For much of the reporting period, the South African market benefited from its exposure to commodities, particularly precious metals and oil, as escalating oil prices and gold prices during the reporting period boosted share prices for some of the major constituents of the Index. In the final months of the reporting period, however, the market lost ground as some international investors took profits, evidently concerned about South Africa’s ability to continue attracting the level of foreign investment needed to finance its current account deficit.

The South African currency, the rand, depreciated sharply, losing approximately 10% in the final three weeks of May 2006 alone. Concerned with the potential impact of a weaker rand and higher oil prices on inflation, the South African Reserve Bank raised short-term interest rates in both June and August 2006, bringing the rate to 8.00% by the end of the reporting period.

The Fund’s ten largest holdings accounted for approximately 58% of the Fund’s net assets as of August 31, 2006. All of the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006 posted positive results for the reporting period. Metals companies Anglo Platinum Ltd. and Impala Platinum Holdings Ltd. both delivered strong gains. Gold Fields Ltd. and AngloGold Ashanti Ltd. also performed well. The most modest gains among the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006 came from Telkom South Africa Ltd.

Total returns for the periods since inception are calculated from the inception date of the Fund (5/9/00). “Average annual total returns” represent the average annual change in value of an investment over the periods indicated. “Cumulative total returns” represent the total change in value of an investment over the periods indicated.

The Fund’s per share net asset value or “NAV” is the value of one share of the Fund as calculated in accordance with the standard formula for valuing mutual fund shares. The NAV return is based on the NAV of the Fund, and the market return is based on the market price per share of the Fund. The price used to calculate market return (“Market Price”) is determined by using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lowest offer on the stock exchange on which the shares of the Fund are listed for trading, as of the time that the Fund’s NAV is calculated. As the Fund has a NAV which is determined prior to the opening of the regular trading day on the stock exchange on which it is listed, the market return is calculated using the midpoint of the bid/ask spread as of the opening of regular trading on the exchange. Since shares of the Fund did not trade in the secondary market until several days after the Fund’s inception, for the period from inception to the first day of secondary market trading in shares of the Fund (5/12/00), the NAV of the Fund is used as a proxy for secondary market trading price to calculate market returns. Market and NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested in the Fund at Market Price and NAV, respectively.

The iShares MSCI South Korea Index Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of publicly traded securities in the aggregate in the South Korean market, as measured by the MSCI Korea Index (the “Index”). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities in the Index, which has a similar investment profile as the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 33.16%, while the Index returned 34.88%.

The South Korean market delivered very strong gains for the reporting period. Because South Korea depends heavily on exports for its economic health, it is sensitive to the economic cycles of its export markets, particularly the U.S., China and Japan. During much of the reporting period, this relationship benefited South Korea, as export demand from each of these countries continued to be strong. In May 2006, higher global inflation and rising oil prices appeared to lead to concerns that economic growth would slow globally, dampening export demand. As a result, many emerging markets that rely on exports suffered market declines and South Korea was no exception. The South Korean market dropped 7.63% in May 2006, its largest monthly decline for the year to date. However, South Korea overcame this setback in the final months of the reporting period as its export demand increased. In August 2006, exports rose 18.7% from a year earlier, driven largely by demand for computer and electronic products in the U.S., Japan and China.

The Fund’s ten largest holdings accounted for approximately 54% of the Fund’s net assets as of August 31, 2006. All of the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006 posted double-digit gains for the reporting period. The strongest performer among the Fund’s ten largest holdings was Kookmin Bank, followed by Shinhan Financial Group Ltd., Shinsegae Co. Ltd. and KT&G Corp. The common shares of Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., the largest Fund holding, also contributed positively to Fund performance. The most modest gains among the ten largest holdings came from LG Electronics Inc.

The iShares MSCI Taiwan Index Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of publicly traded securities in the aggregate in the Taiwanese market, as measured by the MSCI Taiwan Index (the “Index”). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities in the Index, which has a similar investment profile as the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 9.84%, while the Index returned 11.79%.

The Taiwanese market delivered gains for the reporting period, although its returns were generally more moderate than other Asian markets. Because Taiwan’s exports account for almost half of its output, it is sensitive to the economic cycles of its two major export markets, China and the U.S. For much of the reporting period, ongoing economic growth in China and the U.S. translated into strong demand for exports from Taiwan. In May 2006, however, concerns surfaced that higher interest rates in the U.S. and rising oil prices would slow demand for exports, which led to declines among many emerging markets that are dependent on export activity. Although Taiwan participated in the general decline, its 6.69% drop in the month of May 2006 was less than the decline of the overall emerging markets. As the reporting period came to a close, the Taiwanese market appeared to be driven higher by one of its leading technology constituents, Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. Ltd., which makes Apple’s iPod music players. Taiwan’s broad market received a further boost when the U.S. Federal Reserve Board suggested that it would hold off further interest rate increases in the U.S., a pause that could help export growth in Taiwan.

The Fund’s ten largest holdings accounted for approximately 47% of the Fund’s net assets as of August 31, 2006. Eight of the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006 delivered gains for the reporting period. High Tech Computer Corp. was the strongest performer, followed by electronics manufacturer Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. Ltd. Semiconductor company MediaTek Inc. performed well, as did Nan Ya Plastic Corp. The Fund’s largest holding, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd., also contributed positively to Fund performance. On the negative side, United Microelectronics Corp. and Chunghwa Telecom Co. Ltd. both declined for the reporting period.

The consideration for the purchase of Creation Units of a Fund generally consists of the in-kind contribution of a designated portfolio of equity securities constituting a portfolio sampling representation of the corresponding MSCI Index and an amount of cash (except for the iShares MSCI Brazil, iShares MSCI Malaysia, iShares MSCI South Korea and iShares MSCI Taiwan Index Funds which are offered in Creation Units solely for cash in U.S. dollars). Investors purchasing and redeeming Creation Units pay a purchase transaction fee and a redemption transaction fee directly to Investors Bank, the administrator, to offset transfer and other transaction costs associated with the issuance and redemption of Creation Units, including Creation Units for cash. Investors transacting in Creation Units for cash pay an additional variable charge to compensate the relevant Fund for brokerage and market impact expenses relating to investing in portfolio securities.

6. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, (“FIN 48”) “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.” FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” This interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. It also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of applying the various provisions of FIN 48.

Board Review and Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts (Unaudited)

iSHARES^®, INC.

NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES PROVIDED BY BGFA

FUNDS’ EXPENSES AND PERFORMANCE OF THE FUNDS

The Board reviewed statistical information prepared by Lipper Inc. (“Lipper”), an independent provider of investment company data, regarding the expense ratio components, including advisory fees, waivers/reimbursements, and gross and net total expenses of each Fund in comparison with the same information for other registered funds objectively selected solely by Lipper as comprising each Fund’s applicable peer group (the “Lipper Peer Group”). In addition, the Board reviewed statistical information prepared by Lipper regarding the performance of each Fund for the one-, three- and five-year, and “last quarter” periods ended March 31, 2006, as applicable, and a comparison of each Fund’s performance to that of the funds in its Lipper Peer Group for the same periods. Because there are few, if any, exchange traded funds or index funds that track indices similar to those tracked by the Funds, the Lipper Peer Groups included mutual funds, closed-end funds, exchange traded funds, and funds with differing investment objective classifications, investment focuses and other characteristics (e.g., actively managed funds and funds sponsored by “at cost” service providers). In support of its review of the statistical information, the Board was provided with a detailed description of the methodology used by Lipper to determine the applicable Lipper Peer Groups and to prepare this information. The Board further noted that due to the limitations in providing comparable funds in the various Lipper Peer Groups, the statistical information may or may not provide meaningful direct comparisons to the Funds. The Board noted that most of the Funds generally performed in line with the funds in their respective Lipper Peer Groups over relevant periods, however, certain of the Funds may have underperformed or outperformed funds in their respective Lipper Peer Groups over relevant periods, but any such Funds also performed in line with their relevant benchmarks over such periods. The Board also noted that the investment advisory fees and overall expenses for the Funds were generally lower than or in line with the investment advisory fee rates and overall expenses of the funds in their respective Lipper Peer Groups. The Board also reviewed statistical information from Lipper displaying the effects of the proposed extension/addition of breakpoints in the investment advisory fee rates for certain of the Funds (as discussed below)

Board Review and Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts (Unaudited) (Continued)

at various assets levels of such Funds as compared to their respective Lipper Peer Groups. Based on this review, the Board concluded that the investment advisory fees and expense levels and the historical performance of each Fund, as managed by BGFA, as compared to the investment advisory fees and expense levels and performance of the funds in the relevant Lipper Peer Group, were satisfactory for the purposes of approving the Advisory Contract for the coming year.

COSTS OF SERVICES PROVIDED TO FUNDS AND PROFITS REALIZED BY BGFA AND AFFILIATES

ECONOMIES OF SCALE

In connection with its review of the Funds’ profitability analysis, the Board reviewed information regarding economies of scale or other efficiencies that may result from increases in the Funds’ assets. The Board was also presented with materials regarding the proposed extension of breakpoints in the investment advisory fee rates at certain asset levels of certain Funds on an aggregated basis with certain other iShares funds and the addition of breakpoints in the investment advisory fee rates for the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund. The Board noted that the Advisory Contract already provided for breakpoints in the investment advisory fee rates for most of the Funds as the assets of such Funds, on an aggregated basis with the assets of certain other iShares funds, increased, but also noted that the Advisory Contract did not currently provide for any breakpoints in the investment advisory fee rates for the iShares MSCI Pacific Ex-Japan Index Fund and the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund. The Board discussed the substantial growth in assets of certain iShares funds, including the iShares Emerging Markets Index Fund and the iShares funds in the group with which most of the other Funds’ assets are aggregated for the purpose of applying breakpoints in the investment advisory fee rates, over the last few years. However, the Board generally noted that possible future economies of scale for the Funds had been taken into consideration by fixing the investment advisory fees at rates at the lower end of the marketplace, effectively giving Fund shareholders, from inception, the benefits of the lower average fee shareholders would have received from a fee structure with declining breakpoints where the initial fee was higher. In addition, the Board noted that as of July 1, 2004, Fund shareholders were no longer paying distribution fees pursuant to the Funds’ distribution plan under 12b-1 of the 1940 Act because such plan had been terminated as of that date, benefiting the Funds’ shareholders by lowering the Funds’ overall expenses. The Board also reviewed BGFA’s historic profitability as investment adviser to the iShares fund complex and noted that BGFA had made a significant investment in the iShares funds and had incurred operating losses during earlier years when the iShares funds, including the Funds, had not yet reached scale. In light of this history, the Board determined that the proposed extension/addition of breakpoints was appropriate and warranted at this juncture for certain of the Funds but that reductions in fee rates or further extensions/additions of breakpoints were not warranted at this juncture for the other Funds. Based on this review, the Board, recognizing its responsibility to consider this issue at least annually, concluded that the structure of the investment advisory fees, with the proposed extension/addition of breakpoints for certain of the Funds, reflects the current sharing and potential further sharing of economies of scale with the Funds’ shareholders.

Board Review and Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts (Unaudited) (Continued)

iSHARES^®, INC.

FEES AND SERVICES PROVIDED FOR OTHER COMPARABLE FUNDS/ACCOUNTS MANAGED BY BGFA AND ITS AFFILIATES

The Board considered the Funds’ annual investment advisory fee rates under the Advisory Contract in comparison to the investment advisory/management fee rates for other funds/accounts for which BGFA (or its affiliate, BGI) provides investment advisory/management services, including other funds registered under the 1940 Act, collective funds and separate accounts (together, the “Other Accounts”). The Board noted that comparative investment advisory/management fee information was not available, as BGFA and its affiliates do not manage any Other Accounts with substantially similar investment objectives and strategies as the Funds. However, the Board noted that BGFA provided the Board with general information regarding how the level of services provided to the Other Accounts differed from the level of services provided to the Funds. Based on this review, the Board determined that the investment advisory fee rates under the Advisory Contracts, with the proposed extension/addition of breakpoints, do not constitute fees that are so disproportionately large as to bear no reasonable relationship to the services rendered and that could not have been the product of arm’s-length bargaining, and concluded that the investment advisory fee rates under the Advisory Contracts, with the proposed extension/addition of breakpoints, are fair and reasonable.

OTHER BENEFITS TO BGFA AND/OR ITS AFFILIATES

Based on this analysis, the Board determined that the Advisory Contract, including the investment advisory fee rates, with the proposed extension/addition of breakpoints, are fair and reasonable in light of all relevant circumstances, and concluded that it is in the best interest of the Funds and their shareholders to approve the Advisory Contract, with the fee schedule to the Advisory Contract as proposed to be amended to reflect the extension/addition of breakpoints, for the coming year.

Supplemental Information (Unaudited)

iSHARES^®, INC.

The tables that follow present information about the differences between the daily market price on secondary markets for shares of an iShares Fund and that Fund’s net asset value. Net asset value, or “NAV”, is the price per share at which each Fund issues and redeems shares. It is calculated in accordance with the standard formula for valuing mutual fund shares. The “Market Price” of each iShares Fund generally is determined using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lowest offer on the stock exchange on which the shares of such Fund is listed for trading (the “Exchange”), as of the time that the Fund’s NAV is calculated. In the case of the iShares MSCI Malaysia, iShares MSCI South Korea and iShares MSCI Taiwan Index Funds, the NAVs of which are determined prior to the opening of the regular trading day on the Exchange, the Market Price is determined using the midpoint of the bid/ask spread as of the opening of regular trading on the Exchange. Each Fund’s Market Price may be at, above or below its NAV. The NAV of each Fund will fluctuate with changes in the market value of its portfolio holdings. The Market Price of each Fund will fluctuate in accordance with changes in its NAV, as well as market supply and demand.

The iShares MSCI Japan Index Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of publicly traded securities in the aggregate in the Japanese market, as measured by the MSCI Japan Index (the “Index”). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities in the Index, which has a similar investment profile as the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2006 (the “reporting period”), the Fund returned 26.10%, while the Index returned 26.94%.

The Japanese stock market rallied sharply for the reporting period, overcoming a series of challenges that included computer glitches at the Tokyo Stock Exchange, financial fraud and insider trading scandals, and North Korean missile testing in the Sea of Japan. The strong stock market performance was due to the Japanese economy, which appeared to turn the corner after a decade-long downturn. Economic growth repeatedly surpassed expectations as industrial production increased, spare manufacturing capacity shrunk to its lowest levels since 1991, consumer confidence hit a 15-year high, and retail sales surged to their highest level in more than a decade. In local employment markets, the job vacancies per applicant ratio climbed to its highest level in the past 14 years, indicating that there are more jobs available than there are applicants.

All of this economic activity produced an end to Japan’s decade-long battle against deflation, as consumer prices rose for nine consecutive months. As a result, the Bank of Japan raised interest rates for the first time in six years and only the second time since 1990, boosting rates from 0% to 0.25% in July 2006. Nonetheless, Japanese interest rates remained well below those of other developed nations, and that continued to weigh on the Japanese currency. For the reporting period, the U.S. dollar strengthened by 5.9% against the Japanese yen, hurting returns for U.S. investors. In local-currency terms, the Index returned 33.97%.

As of August 31, 2006, the ten largest Fund holdings accounted for approximately 25% of Fund net assets. Each of the Fund’s ten largest holdings as of August 31, 2006, produced double-digit returns for the reporting period. The top performer was Canon Inc., which makes cameras, printers, and copiers. Canon enjoyed robust sales and increasing profit margins, especially in its camera division, and boosted capital spending to automate all of its manufacturing processes. The financial stocks amongst the Fund’s ten largest holdings also performed well, led by Mizuho Financial Group Inc. and Nomura Holdings Inc. Both companies reported strong profit growth; in particular, Nomura reported the highest profits in the 81-year history of the company, tripling its earnings from the previous year. The lowest returns came from electronics manufacturer Matsushita Electric Industrial Co. Ltd. and drug maker Takeda Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd., though both produced strong gains for the reporting period.

Shareholder Expenses (Unaudited)

iSHARES^® MSCI JAPAN INDEX FUND

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions on purchases and sales of fund shares and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other fund expenses. The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from March 1, 2006 to August 31, 2006.

ACTUAL EXPENSES

The first line in 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 in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund 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 transactional costs, such as brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.


	Beginning Account Value (3/1/06)		Ending Account Value (8/31/06)		Annualized Expense Ratio		Expenses Paid During Period ^a(3/1/06 to 8/31/06)
Actual	$	1,000.00	$	985.00	0.52	%	$	2.60
Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)		1,000.00		1,022.58	0.52			2.65

^a	Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days) and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).

18		2006 iSHARES ANNUAL REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS

Notes to the Financial Statements

iSHARES^®, INC.

These financial statements relate only to the iShares MSCI Japan Index Fund (the “Fund”).

The Fund’s investment objective is to seek investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of publicly traded equity securities in the aggregate in the Japanese equity market, as measured by the MSCI Japan Index compiled by Morgan Stanley Capital International Inc. (“MSCI”). The investment adviser uses a “passive” or index approach to achieve the Fund’s investment objective. The Fund is classified as a non-diversified fund under the 1940 Act. Non-diversified funds generally hold securities of fewer companies than diversified funds and may be more susceptible to the risks associated with these particular companies, or to a single economic, political or regulatory occurrence affecting these companies.

The Fund invests in the securities of foreign issuers of a single country, which may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with securities of U.S. issuers. Such risks include, but are not limited to: generally less liquid and less efficient securities markets; generally greater price volatility; exchange rate fluctuations and exchange controls; imposition of restrictions on the expatriation of funds or other assets of the Fund; less publicly available information about issuers; the imposition of withholding or other taxes; higher transaction and custody costs; settlement delays and risk of loss attendant in settlement procedures; difficulties in enforcing contractual obligations; less regulation of securities markets; different accounting, disclosure and reporting requirements; more substantial governmental involvement in the economy; higher inflation rates; greater social, economic and political uncertainties; the risk of nationalization or expropriation of assets and the risk of war.

Under the Company’s organizational documents, the Fund’s officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following significant accounting policies are consistently followed by the Company in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for investment companies. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

SECURITY VALUATION

The securities and other assets of the Fund are generally valued using market valuations. A market valuation generally means a valuation (i) obtained from an exchange, a pricing service or a major market maker (or dealer), (ii) based on a price quotation or other equivalent indication of value supplied by an exchange, a pricing service or a major market maker (or dealer) or (iii) based on amortized cost. In the case of shares of funds that are not traded on an exchange, a market valuation means such fund’s published net asset value per share. The investment adviser may use various pricing services or discontinue the use of any pricing service. A price obtained from a pricing service based on such pricing service’s valuation matrix may be considered a market valuation. In the event that current market valuations are not readily available or such valuations do not reflect current market values, the affected investments will be valued using fair value pricing pursuant to the pricing policy and procedures approved by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”).


NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS		19

Notes to the Financial Statements (Continued)

iSHARES^®, INC.

SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INCOME RECOGNITION

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies, as well as investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates deemed appropriate by the investment adviser. Any use of a different rate from the rates used by MSCI may adversely affect the Fund’s ability to track its underlying index. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars on the respective date of such transactions.

The Fund does not isolate the effect of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates from the effect of fluctuations in the market prices of securities. Such fluctuations are reflected by the Fund as a component of realized and unrealized gains and losses from investments for financial reporting purposes.

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS

Distributions to shareholders from net investment income, if any, including any net foreign currency gains, are declared and distributed at least annually by the Fund. Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, generally are declared and distributed once a year. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and net realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Dividends and distributions are paid in U.S. dollars and cannot be automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Fund.

As of August 31, 2006, the tax year-end of the Fund, the components of net distributable earnings on a tax basis consisted of undistributed ordinary income of $49,104,975, unrealized appreciation of $2,651,432,248, and capital and other losses of $172,582,563, for net distributable earnings of $2,527,954,660.

For the years ended August 31, 2006 and August 31, 2005, the tax characterization of distributions paid for the Fund represents ordinary income. The total distributions and distributions per share are disclosed in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and the Financial Highlights for the Fund.

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

The Fund is treated as an entity separate from the Company’s other funds for federal income tax purposes. It is the policy of the Fund to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions applicable to regulated investment companies, as defined under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and to annually distribute substantially all of its net income and any net gains (taking into account any capital loss carryforwards) sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income and excise taxes. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes was required for the year ended August 31, 2006.

From November 1, 2005 to August 31, 2006, the Fund incurred net realized capital losses and net foreign currency losses of $21,186,379. As permitted by tax regulations, the Fund has elected to defer those losses and treat them as arising in the year ending August 31, 2007.

As of August 31, 2006, the tax year-end of the Fund, the Fund had tax basis net capital loss carryforwards of $2,959,030, $62,572,173, $3,621,148, $5,594,562, $8,733,802 and $68,122,871 expiring in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively. Such losses may be applied against any net realized taxable gains in each succeeding year or until their respective expiration dates, whichever occurs first.


20		2006 iSHARES ANNUAL REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS

Notes to the Financial Statements (Continued)

iSHARES^®, INC.

The Fund may own shares in certain foreign investment entities, referred to, under U.S. tax law, as “passive foreign investment companies.” The Fund may elect to mark-to-market annually the shares of each passive foreign investment company and would be required to distribute to shareholders any such mark-to-market gains.

The Fund reclassifies at the end of its tax year certain amounts to paid-in-capital from accumulated net realized gain (loss) on investments and foreign currency transactions and accumulated net investment income (loss), respectively, as a result of permanent book and tax differences primarily attributed to net investment loss, return of capital, passive foreign investment companies, realized foreign currency gains and losses and gains and losses on in-kind redemptions. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share.

As of August 31, 2006, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was $11,271,535,355. Net unrealized appreciation was $2,651,668,562, of which $2,873,877,135 represented gross unrealized appreciation on securities and $222,208,573 represented gross unrealized depreciation on securities.

REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS

The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with banks and securities dealers. These transactions involve the purchase of securities with a simultaneous commitment to resell the securities to the bank or the dealer at an agreed-upon date and price. A repurchase agreement is accounted for as an investment by the Fund, collateralized by securities, which are delivered to the Fund’s custodian or to an agent bank under a tri-party agreement. The securities are marked-to-market daily and additional securities are acquired as needed, to ensure that their value equals or exceeds the repurchase price plus accrued interest.

2. AGREEMENTS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement with the Company, Barclays Global Fund Advisors (“BGFA”) manages the investment of the Fund’s assets. BGFA is a California corporation indirectly owned by Barclays Bank PLC. Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, BGFA is responsible for all expenses (“Covered Expenses”) of the Company, including the cost of transfer agency, custody, fund administration, legal, audit and other services, except interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and other expenses connected with the execution of portfolio transactions, distribution fees and extraordinary expenses.

For its investment advisory services to the Fund, BGFA is entitled to an annual investment advisory fee based on the Fund’s allocable portion of the aggregate of the average daily net assets of all the funds offered by the Company (except for the iShares MSCI Brazil, iShares MSCI Emerging Markets, iShares MSCI Pacific ex-Japan, iShares MSCI South Africa, iShares MSCI South Korea and iShares MSCI Taiwan Index Funds) as follows:


*Investment Advisory Fee*		*Aggregate Average Daily Net Assets*

The Board approved a change to the investment advisory fee rates for the Fund effective September 1, 2006. For its investment advisory services to the Fund, BGFA will be entitled to be paid annual investment advisory fees based on the Fund’s allocable portion of the aggregate of the average daily net assets of all the funds offered by the Company (except for the iShares MSCI Brazil, iShares MSCI Emerging Markets, iShares MSCI Pacific ex-Japan, iShares MSCI South Africa, iShares MSCI South Korea and iShares MSCI Taiwan Index Funds) as follows:


*Investment Advisory Fee*		*Aggregate Average Daily Net Assets*
0.59%		First $7 billion
0.54		Over $7 billion, up to and including $11 billion
0.49		Over $11 billion, up to and including $24 billion
0.44		Over $24 billion

SEI Investments Distribution Co. (“SEI”) serves as the Fund’s underwriter and distributor of the shares of the Fund, pursuant to a Distribution Agreement with the Company. SEI does not receive a fee from the Fund for its distribution services.

Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Fund is permitted to lend portfolio securities to Barclays Capital, Inc. (“BarCap”). Pursuant to the same exemptive order, Barclays Global Investors, N.A. (“BGI”) serves as securities lending agent for the Company. BarCap and BGI are affiliates of BGFA, the Fund’s investment adviser. As securities lending agent, BGI receives, as fees, a share of the income earned on investment of the cash collateral received for the loan of securities. For the year ended August 31, 2006, BGI earned securities lending agent fees of $1,897,151.

Cross trades for the year ended August 31, 2006 were executed by the Fund pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act. Cross trading is the buying or selling of portfolio securities between funds to which BGFA (or an affiliate) serves as investment adviser. At its regularly scheduled quarterly meetings, the Board reviews such transactions as of the most recent calendar quarter, for compliance with the requirements and restrictions set forth by Rule 17a-7.

The Fund may invest in the Institutional Shares of certain money market funds managed by BGFA, the Fund’s investment adviser, including the Government Money Market Fund (“GMMF”), Institutional Money Market Fund (“IMMF”), Prime Money Market Fund (“PMMF”) and Treasury Money Market Fund (“TMMF”) of Barclays Global Investors Funds. The GMMF, IMMF, PMMF and TMMF are feeder funds in a master/feeder fund structure that invest substantially all of their assets in the Government Money Market Master Portfolio, Money Market Master Portfolio, Prime Money Market Master Portfolio and Treasury Money Market Master Portfolio (collectively, the “Master Portfolios”), respectively, which are also managed by BGFA. While the GMMF, IMMF, PMMF and TMMF do not directly charge an investment advisory fee, the Master Portfolios in which they invest do charge an investment advisory fee. Income distributions from the GMMF, IMMF, PMMF and TMMF are declared daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Income distributions earned by the Fund from temporary cash investments are recorded as interest from affiliated issuers in the accompanying Statement of Operations. Income distributions earned by the Fund from the investment of securities lending collateral are included in securities lending income in the accompanying Statement of Operations.

3. INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investments (excluding in-kind transactions and short-term investments) for the year ended August 31, 2006, aggregated $1,011,331,752 and $963,888,644, respectively.

In-kind purchases and sales (see Note 4) for the year ended August 31, 2006, aggregated $5,304,346,344 and $1,209,690,820, respectively.

4. CAPITAL SHARE TRANSACTIONS

The Company has authorized 10.9 billion shares of $.001 par value capital stock. As of August 31, 2006, 2,124,600,000 shares were authorized to the Fund.

The Company issues and redeems capital shares of the Fund only in aggregations of a specified number of shares (each, a “Creation Unit”) at net asset value. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares of the Fund are not redeemable. Transactions in capital shares for the Fund are disclosed in detail in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.

The consideration for the purchase of Creation Units of the Fund generally consists of the in-kind contribution of a designated portfolio of equity securities constituting a portfolio sampling representation of the securities involved in the MSCI Japan Index and an amount of cash. Investors purchasing and redeeming Creation Units pay a purchase transaction fee and a redemption transaction fee directly to Investors Bank, the administrator, to offset transfer and other transaction costs associated with the issuance and redemption of Creation Units.

5. LOANS OF PORTFOLIO SECURITIES

The Fund may lend its investment securities to approved borrowers, such as brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. The borrower pledges and maintains with the Fund collateral consisting of cash, an irrevocable letter of credit issued by a bank, or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government. The initial collateral received by the Fund is required to have a value of at least 102% of the market value of the loaned securities for securities traded on U.S. exchanges and a value of at least 105% for all other securities. The collateral is maintained thereafter, at a value equal to at least 100% of the current market value of the securities on loan. The risks to the Fund of securities lending are that the borrower may not provide additional collateral when required or may not return the securities when due.


NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS		23

Notes to the Financial Statements (Continued)

iSHARES^®, INC.

As of August 31, 2006, the Fund had loaned securities which were collateralized by cash. Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the cash collateral received was invested in a joint account with other investment funds managed by BGFA. The joint account invests in securities with remaining maturities of 397 days or less, repurchase agreements and money market mutual funds, including money market funds managed by BGFA. Repurchase agreements held in the joint account are fully collateralized by U.S. Government securities or non-U.S. Government debt securities. The market value of the securities on loan as of August 31, 2006 and the value of the related collateral are disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Securities lending income, as disclosed in the Fund’s Statement of Operations, represents the income earned from the investment of the cash collateral, net of rebates paid to, or fees paid by, borrowers and less the fees paid to BGI as securities lending agent.

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the iShares MSCI Japan Index Fund, a portfolio of the iShares MSCI Series (the “Fund”) at August 31, 2006, the results of its operations for the year then ended and the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Fund’s management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 2006 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

26		2006 iSHARES ANNUAL REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS

Board Review and Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts (Unaudited)

iSHARES^®, INC.

Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), including a majority of Directors who are not interested persons of the Company (as that term is defined in the 1940 Act) (the “Independent Directors”), is required annually to consider the Investment Advisory Contract between the Company and BGFA (the “Advisory Contract”) on behalf of the Fund. As required by Section 15(c), the Board requested and BGFA provided such information as the Board deemed reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Advisory Contract. At a meeting held on June 14-15, 2006, the Board approved the selection of BGFA and the continuance of the Advisory Contract, based on its review of qualitative and quantitative information provided by BGFA. In selecting BGFA and approving the Advisory Contract for the Fund, the Board, including the Independent Directors, advised by their independent counsel, considered the following factors, none of which was controlling, and made the following conclusions:

NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES PROVIDED BY BGFA

The Board determined that there would be no diminution in the scope of services required of BGFA under the Advisory Contract for the coming year as compared to the scope of services provided by BGFA over the past year. In reviewing the scope of these services, the Board considered BGFA’s investment philosophy and experience, noting that BGFA and its affiliates have committed significant resources over time, including over the past year, to the support of the Fund. The Board also considered BGFA’s compliance program and its compliance record with respect to the Fund. In that regard, the Board noted that BGFA reports to the Board about portfolio management and compliance matters on a periodic basis in connection with regularly scheduled meetings of the Board, and has made appropriate officers available as needed to provide further assistance with these matters. The Board also reviewed the background and experience of the persons responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund. In addition to the above considerations, the Board reviewed and considered BGFA’s investment processes and strategies, and matters related to BGFA’s portfolio transaction policies and procedures. The Board further noted that BGFA does not serve as investment adviser for any other series of registered investment companies with substantially similar investment objectives and strategies as the Fund; therefore, no comparative performance information was available. However, the Board also noted that the Fund had met its investment objective consistently since its inception date. Based on this review, the Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by BGFA to the Fund under the Advisory Contract were appropriate and mitigated in favor of the Board’s approval of the Advisory Contract for the coming year.

FUNDS’ EXPENSES AND PERFORMANCE OF THE FUND

The Board reviewed statistical information prepared by Lipper Inc. (“Lipper”), an independent provider of investment company data, regarding the expense ratio components, including advisory fees, waivers/reimbursements, and gross and net total expenses of the Fund in comparison with the same information for other registered funds objectively selected solely by Lipper as comprising the Fund’s peer group (the “Lipper Peer Group”). In addition, the Board reviewed statistical information prepared by Lipper regarding the performance of the Fund for the one-, three- and five-year, and “last quarter” periods ended March 31, 2006 and a comparison of the Fund’s performance to that of the funds in its Lipper Peer Group for the same periods. Because there are few, if any, exchange traded funds or index funds that track indices similar to those tracked by the Fund, the Lipper Peer Group included mutual funds, closed-end funds, exchange traded funds, and funds with differing investment objective classifications, investment focuses and other characteristics (e.g., actively managed funds and funds sponsored by “at cost” service providers). In support of its review of the statistical information, the Board was provided with a detailed description of the methodology used by Lipper to determine the Lipper Peer Group and to prepare this information. The Board further noted that due to the limitations in providing comparable funds in the Lipper Peer Group, the statistical information may or may not provide meaningful direct comparisons to the Fund. The Board noted that the Fund generally performed in line with the funds in its Lipper Peer Group over relevant periods. The Board also noted that the investment advisory fees and overall expenses for the Fund were generally lower than or in line with the investment advisory fee rates and overall expenses of the funds in its respective Lipper Peer Group. The Board also reviewed statistical information from Lipper displaying the effects of the proposed extension of breakpoints in the investment advisory fee rates for the Fund (as discussed below) at various assets levels of the Funds as compared to its Lipper Peer Group. Based on this review, the Board concluded that the investment advisory fees and expense levels and the historical performance of the Fund, as managed by BGFA, as compared to the investment advisory fees and expense levels and performance of the funds in its Lipper Peer Group, were satisfactory for the purposes of approving the Advisory Contract for the coming year.

Board Review and Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts (Unaudited) (Continued)

iSHARES^®, INC.

COSTS OF SERVICES PROVIDED TO THE FUND AND PROFITS REALIZED BY BGFA AND AFFILIATES

The Board reviewed information about the profitability to BGFA of the Fund based on the fees payable to BGFA and its affiliates (including fees under the Advisory Contract), and all other sources of revenue and expense to BGFA and its affiliates for the last calendar year. The Board discussed the sources of direct and ancillary revenue with management, including the revenues to BGI from securities lending by the Company (including any securities lending by the Fund). The Board also discussed BGFA’s profit margin as reflected in the Fund’s profitability analysis and reviewed information regarding economies of scale (as discussed below). Based on this review, the Board concluded that the profits to be realized by BGFA and its affiliates under the Advisory Contract and from other relationships between the Fund and BGFA and/or its affiliates, if any, were within the range the Board considered reasonable and appropriate.

ECONOMIES OF SCALE

In connection with its review of the Fund’s profitability analysis, the Board reviewed information regarding economies of scale or other efficiencies that may result from increases in the Fund’s assets. The Board was also presented with materials regarding the proposed extension of breakpoints in the investment advisory fee rates at certain asset levels of the Fund on an aggregated basis with certain other iShares funds. The Board noted that the Advisory Contract already provided for breakpoints in the Fund’s investment advisory fee rates as the assets of the Fund, on an aggregated basis with the assets of certain other iShares funds, increase. The Board also discussed the substantial growth in assets of certain iShares funds, including the Fund, over the last few years. The Board further noted that as of July 1, 2004, Fund shareholders were no longer paying distribution fees pursuant to the Fund’s distribution plan under 12b-1 of the 1940 Act because such plan had been terminated as of that date, benefiting the Fund’s shareholders by lowering the Fund’s overall expenses. The Board also reviewed BGFA’s historic profitability as investment adviser to the iShares fund complex and noted that BGFA had made a significant investment in the iShares funds and had incurred operating losses during earlier years when the iShares funds, including the Fund, had not yet reached scale. In light of this history, the Board determined that the proposed extension of breakpoints was appropriate and warranted at this juncture for the Fund. Based on this review, the Board, recognizing its responsibility to consider this issue at least annually, concluded that the structure of the investment advisory fees, with the proposed extension of breakpoints for the Fund, reflects the current sharing and potential further sharing of economies of scale with the Fund’s shareholders.

FEES AND SERVICES PROVIDED FOR OTHER COMPARABLE FUNDS/ACCOUNTS MANAGED BY BGFA AND ITS AFFILIATES

The Board considered the Fund’s annual investment advisory fee rates under the Advisory Contract in comparison to the investment advisory/management fee rates for other funds/accounts for which BGFA (or its affiliate, BGI) provides investment advisory/management services, including other funds registered under the 1940 Act, collective funds and separate accounts (together, the “Other Accounts”). The Board noted that comparative investment advisory/management fee information was not available, as BGFA and its affiliates do not manage any Other Accounts with substantially similar investment objectives and strategies as the Funds. However, the Board noted that BGFA provided the Board with general information regarding how the level of services provided to the Other Accounts differed from the level of services provided to the Funds. Based on this review, the Board determined that the investment advisory fee rates under the Advisory Contract, with the proposed extension of breakpoints, do not constitute fees that are so disproportionately large as to bear no reasonable relationship to the services rendered and that could not have been the product of arm’s-length bargaining, and concluded that the investment advisory fee rates under the Advisory Contract, with the proposed extension of breakpoints, are fair and reasonable.

iSHARES^®, INC.

OTHER BENEFITS TO BGFA AND/OR ITS AFFILIATES

The Board reviewed any ancillary revenue received by BGFA and/or its affiliates in connection with the services provided to the Fund by BGFA, such as any payment of revenue to BGI, the Company’s securities lending agent, for loaning any portfolio securities, and payment of advisory fees and/or administration fees to BGFA and BGI in connection with any investments by the Fund in other funds for which BGFA provides investment advisory services and/or BGI provides administration services. The Board noted that BGFA does not use soft dollars or consider the value of research or other services that may be provided to BGFA (including its affiliates) in selecting brokers for portfolio transactions for the Fund. The Board further noted that any portfolio transactions on behalf of the Fund placed through a BGFA affiliate are reported to the Board pursuant to Rule 17e-1 under the 1940 Act. The Board concluded that any such ancillary benefits would not be disadvantageous to the Fund’s shareholders.

Based on this analysis, the Board determined that the Advisory Contract, including the investment advisory fee rates, with the proposed extension of breakpoints, are fair and reasonable in light of all relevant circumstances, and concluded that it is in the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders to approve the Advisory Contract, with the fee schedule to the Advisory Contract as proposed to be amended to reflect the extension of breakpoints, for the coming year.

Supplemental Information (Unaudited)

iSHARES^®, INC.

The table that follows presents information about the differences between the daily market price on secondary markets for shares of the iShares MSCI Japan Index Fund (the “Fund”) and the Fund’s net asset value. Net asset value, or “NAV”, is the price per share at which the Fund issues and redeems shares. It is calculated in accordance with the standard formula for valuing mutual fund shares. The “Market Price” of the Fund generally is determined using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lowest offer on the stock exchange on which the shares of the Fund is listed for trading, as of the time that the Fund’s NAV is calculated. The Fund’s Market Price may be at, above or below its NAV. The NAV of the Fund will fluctuate with changes in the market value of its portfolio holdings. The Market Price of the Fund will fluctuate in accordance with changes in its NAV, as well as market supply and demand.

Premiums or discounts are the differences (expressed as a percentage) between the NAV and Market Price of the Fund on a given day, generally at the time NAV is calculated. A premium is the amount that the Fund is trading above the reported NAV, expressed as a percentage of the NAV. A discount is the amount that the Fund is trading below the reported NAV, expressed as a percentage of the NAV.

The following information shows the frequency distributions of premiums and discounts for the Fund. The information shown for the Fund is for five calendar years through the date of the most recent calendar quarter-end.

Each line in the table shows the number of trading days in which the Fund traded within the premium/discount range indicated. The number of trading days in each premium/discount range is also shown as a percentage of the total number of trading days in the period covered by the table. All data presented here represents past performance, which cannot be used to predict future results.

Item 2.

Code of Ethics.

As of August 31, 2006, iShares, Inc. (the “Registrant”) had adopted a code of ethics that applies to persons appointed by the Registrant’s Board of Directors as the President and Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and/or Chief Accounting Officer, and any persons performing similar functions. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2006, there were no amendments to any provision of this code of ethics, nor were there any waivers granted from any provision of this code of ethics. A copy of this code of ethics is filed with this Form N-CSR under Item 12(a)(1).

Item 3.

Audit Committee Financial Expert.

The Registrant’s Board of Directors has determined that the Registrant has more than one audit committee financial expert, as that term is defined under Item 3(b) and 3(c), serving on its audit committee. The audit committee financial experts serving on the Registrant’s audit committee are Richard K. Lyons, George G.C. Parker, Cecilia H. Herbert, Charles A. Hurty and John E. Kerrigan, all of whom are independent, as that term is defined under Item 3(a)(2). Richard K. Lyons holds a PhD in Economics and qualifies as an audit committee financial expert through his many years of university-level (graduate) teaching of accounting and finance-related subjects, his many years of research in the same subjects (including mutual funds), and his extensive experience serving as independent director and audit committee member of various mutual fund boards.

Item 4.

Principal Accountant Fees and Services.

(a)

Audit Fees – The aggregate fees billed for each of the last two fiscal years for professional services rendered by the principal accountant for the audit of the Funds’ annual financial statements or services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for those fiscal years, were $348,000 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2005 and $374,100 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2006.

(b)

Audit-Related Fees – There were no fees billed for the fiscal years ended August 31, 2005 and August 31, 2006 for assurance and related services by the principal accountant that were reasonably related to the performance of the audit of the Funds’ financial statements and are not reported under (a) of this Item.

(c)

Tax Fees – The aggregate fees billed in each of the last two fiscal years for professional services rendered by the principal accountant for the review of the Funds’ tax returns and excise tax calculations, were $166,800 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2005 and $179,310 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2006.

(d)

All Other Fees – There were no other fees billed for the fiscal years ended August 31, 2005 and August 31, 2006 for products and services provided by the principal accountant, other than the services reported in (a) through (c) of this Item.

(e)

(1) The Registrant’s audit committee charter, as amended in June 2005, provides that the audit committee is responsible for the approval, prior to appointment, of the engagement of the principal accountant to annually audit and provide their opinion on the Registrant’s financial statements. The audit committee must also approve, prior to appointment, the engagement of the principal accountant to provide non-audit services to the Registrant or to any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Registrant’s investment adviser (“Adviser Affiliate”) that provides services to the Registrant, if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Registrant.

(2) There were no services described in (b) through (d) above (including services required by the audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X) that were approved by the audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

(f)

None of the hours expended on the principal accountant’s engagement to audit the Funds’ financial statements for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2006 were attributable to work performed by persons other than the principal accountant’s full-time, permanent employees.

(g)

The aggregate non-audit fees billed by the Registrant’s principal accountant for services rendered to the Funds, and rendered to the Registrant’s investment adviser, and any Adviser Affiliate that provides ongoing services to the Registrant for the last two fiscal years, were $705,969 for the year ended August 31, 2005 and $1,866,533 for the year ended August 31, 2006.

(h)

The Registrant’s audit committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services rendered to the Registrant’s investment adviser and any Adviser Affiliate that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X, if any, are compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence, and has determined that the provision of these services do not compromise the principal accountant’s independence.

Item 5.

Audit Committee of Listed Registrants.

The Registrant is a listed issuer as defined in Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act and has a separately-designated standing audit committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act.
