PART I



Item 1.  Business



General



World Monitor Trust (the Trust) is a business trust organized under the
laws of Delaware on December 17, 1997. The Trust commenced trading operations on June 10, 1998 and will terminate on December 31, 2047 unless terminated sooner as provided in the Second Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust and Trust Agreement
(the Trust Agreement). The Trust consists of three separate and distinct series (Series): Series A, B and C. The assets of each Series are segregated from those of the other Series, separately valued and independently
managed. Each Series was formed to engage in the speculative trading of a diversified portfolio of futures, forward and options contracts and may, from time to time, engage in cash and spot transactions. The trustee of the Trust is Wilmington Trust
Company. The Trusts fiscal year for book and tax purposes ends on December 31.



World Monitor TrustSeries A (the Registrant) is engaged solely in the business of commodity futures and forward trading; therefore, presentation of industry segment information is not applicable.



On July 1, 2003, Prudential Financial, Inc. (Prudential) and Wachovia
Corp. (Wachovia) combined their separate retail securities brokerage and clearing businesses under a new holding company named Wachovia/Prudential Financial Advisors, LLC (WPFA), owned 62% by Wachovia and 38% by Prudential.
As a result, the retail brokerage operations of Prudential Securities Incorporated (PSI) were contributed to Wachovia Securities, LLC (Wachovia Securities). Wachovia Securities is wholly-owned by WPFA and is a registered
broker-dealer and a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (NASD) and all major securities exchanges. The Registrant and its managing owner, Prudential Securities Futures Management Inc., entered into a service
agreement with Wachovia Securities, effective July 1, 2003. Pursuant to this agreement, Wachovia Securities agrees to provide certain enumerated services to accounts of the limited interest owners carried at Wachovia. Effective July 1, 2003, PSI
changed its name to Prudential Equity Group, Inc. (PEG). PEG remains an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential. PEG was a registered broker-dealer and a member of the NASD and all major securities exchanges and conducted the
equity research, domestic and international equity sales and trading operations, and commodity brokerage and derivative operations it had previously conducted as PSI until December 31, 2003. As part of the process of reorganizing its business
structure, Prudential Securities Group Inc. (PSG), the direct parent of PEG and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential, transferred the commodity brokerage, commodity clearing and derivative operations previously performed by PEG to
another PSG indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, Prudential Financial Derivatives, LLC (PFD) effective January 1, 2004. Like PEG, PFD is registered as a futures commission merchant under the Commodity Exchange Act and is a member of the
National Futures Association.



Managing Owner and its Affiliates



The managing owner of the Registrant, Prudential Securities Futures Management Inc.,
(the Managing Owner) is a wholly owned subsidiary of PEG. The Managing Owner is required to maintain at least a 1% interest in the capital, profits and losses of each Series so long as it is acting as the Managing Owner.



The Offering



Beneficial interests in each Series (Interests) were offered once each week until each Series subscription maximum
was met either through sale or exchange or until the managing owner of the Registrant, Prudential Securities Futures Management Inc. (the Managing Owner), suspended the offering of Interests. On June 10, 1998, a sufficient number of
subscriptions for each Series had been received and accepted by the Managing Owner to permit each Series to commence trading. The Registrant completed its initial offering with gross proceeds of $6,039,177 from the sale of 59,631.775 limited
interests and 760.000 general interests. General interests were sold exclusively to the Managing Owner.



The Registrant was offered until it achieved its subscription maximum of $34,000,000 during November 1999. Interests in World Monitor TrustSeries B
(Series B) and World Monitor TrustSeries C (Series C) continued to be offered on a weekly basis at the then current net asset value per Interest until the

---

Managing Owner suspended the offering of Interests for each Series. The Managing Owner suspended the offering of Interests in Series B and Series C and allowed all
selling registrations to expire by April 30, 2002. As such, Interests owned in one series of the Trust may no longer be exchanged for Interests of one or more other Series. While the Managing Owner does not anticipate doing so, it may, at its
election, reinstate the offering of Interests in Series B and Series C in the future.



The Trading Advisor



Each Series has its own independent
commodity trading advisor that makes that Series trading decisions. The Managing Owner has allocated 100% of the proceeds from the initial and continuous offering of the Registrant to its trading advisor. The Managing Owner, on behalf of the
Registrant, initially entered into an advisory agreement (the Initial Advisory Agreement) with Eagle Trading Systems, Inc. (the Trading Advisor) to make the trading decisions for the Registrant utilizing both the Eagle-Global
System and the Eagle-FX System.



Effective December 6, 1999, the
Eagle-Global System became the exclusive trading program used by the Trading Advisor to trade the Registrants assets. In conjunction with this change, the Managing Owner and the Trading Advisor voluntarily agreed to terminate the Initial
Advisory Agreement and enter into a new advisory agreement (the New Advisory Agreement) effective March 21, 2000.



Pursuant to the New Advisory Agreement, the Trading Advisor was to be paid a weekly management fee at an annual rate of 1% of the Registrants net asset value
until the net asset value per Interest was at least $80 for a period of at least 10 consecutive business days, at which time the weekly management fee was to be increased to an annual rate of 2% (i.e. the rate pursuant to the Initial Advisory
Agreement). Effective October 31, 2001, the Registrant sustained a net asset value per Interest greater than $80 for 10 consecutive business days. As a result, the Trading Advisor has been paid a weekly management fee at an annual rate of 2% since
November 1, 2001. The Registrant also pays its Trading Advisor a quarterly incentive fee equal to 23% of the Registrants New High Net Trading Profits (as defined in the New Advisory Agreement). The incentive fee accrues weekly.
Additionally, although the term of the New Advisory Agreement commenced on March 21, 2000, the Trading Advisor must recoup all trading losses incurred under the Initial Advisory Agreement before an incentive fee is paid. Furthermore, the New
Advisory Agreement resets the net asset value for purposes of its termination provisions. The New Advisory Agreement may be terminated for a variety of reasons, including at the discretion of the Managing Owner.



Competition



The Managing Owner and its affiliates have formed, and may continue to form, various entities to engage in the speculative trading of
futures, forward and options contracts which have certain of the same investment policies as the Registrant.



The Registrant was an open-end fund which solicited the sale of Interests on a weekly basis until its subscription maximum was reached. As such, the Registrant no
longer competes with other entities to attract new participants. However, to the extent that the Trading Advisor recommends similar or identical trades to the Registrant and other accounts which it manages, the Registrant may compete with those
accounts for the execution of the same or similar trades, as well as with other market participants.



Employees



The Registrant has no employees.
Management and administrative services for the Registrant are performed by the Managing Owner and its affiliates pursuant to the Trust Agreement, as further discussed in Notes A, C and D to the Registrants financial statements included in its
annual report to limited owners for the year ended December 31, 2003 (the Registrants 2003 Annual Report), which is filed as an exhibit hereto.



Item 2.  Properties



The
Registrant does not own or lease any property.



Item 3.  Legal Proceedings



There
are no material legal proceedings pending by or against the Registrant or the Managing Owner.



Item 4.  Submission of Matters to a Vote of Interest Holders

Item 5.  Market for the Registrants Interests and Related Interest Holder Matters



Information with respect to the offering of Interests and the use of proceeds is incorporated by reference to Note A to the Registrants 2003 Annual Report,
which is filed as an exhibit hereto.



A significant secondary market for
the Interests has not developed, and it is not expected that one will develop in the future. There are also certain restrictions set forth in the Trust Agreement limiting the ability of an interest holder to transfer Interests. However, Interests
may be redeemed on a weekly basis. Additionally, Interests owned in one series of the Trust (Series A, B or C) may no longer be exchanged for Interests of one or more other Series, as further discussed in Item 1, Business. Redemptions are calculated
based on the applicable Series then current net asset value per Interest as of the close of business on the Friday immediately preceding the week in which the redemption request is effected.



There are no material restrictions upon the Registrants present or future
ability to make distributions in accordance with the provisions of the Trust Agreement. No distributions have been made since inception and no distributions are anticipated in the future.



As of March 18, 2004, there were 473 holders of record owning 44,397.068 Interests,
which includes 473 general interests.

The following table presents selected financial data of the Registrant. This data should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Registrant and the notes thereto on pages 2 through 11 of the Registrants 2003 Annual

Item 9.  Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure



None



Item 9A.  Controls and Procedures



As of the
end of the period covered by this report, the Managing Owner carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the officers of the Managing Owner, including the Managing Owners chief executive officer and chief
financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Registrants disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Managing Owners chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that
the Registrants disclosure controls and procedures are effective.



There have not been any changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates
that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.



PART III



Item 10.  Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant



There are no directors or executive officers of the Registrant. The Registrant is managed by the Managing Owner.



The Managing Owners directors and executive officers and any person holding more
than ten percent of the Registrants Interests (Ten Percent Owners) are required to report their initial ownership of such Interests and any subsequent changes in that ownership to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
