NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2003

(Unaudited)


The unaudited financial statements contained herein include, in
the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation of the results of operations and financial condition
of Morgan Stanley Spectrum Currency L.P. (the ?Partnership?).  The
financial statements and condensed notes herein should be read in
conjunction with the Partnership?s December 31, 2002 Annual Report
on Form 10-K.

1.  Organization
Morgan Stanley Spectrum Currency L.P. is a Delaware limited
partnership organized to engage primarily in the speculative
trading of futures contracts, options on futures contracts, and
forward contracts in global currency markets.  The Partnership is
one of the Morgan Stanley Spectrum series of funds, comprised of
the Partnership, Morgan Stanley Spectrum Global Balanced L.P.,
Morgan Stanley Spectrum Select L.P., Morgan Stanley Spectrum
Strategic L.P., and Morgan Stanley Spectrum Technical L.P.

The Partnership?s general partner is Demeter Management
Corporation (?Demeter?).  The non-clearing commodity broker is
Morgan Stanley DW Inc. (?Morgan Stanley DW?). The clearing
commodity brokers are Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated (?MS &
<page> MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM CURRENCY L.P.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

Co.?) and Morgan Stanley & Co. International Limited (?MSIL?).
Demeter, Morgan Stanley DW, MS & Co. and MSIL are wholly-owned
subsidiaries of Morgan Stanley.  The trading advisors to the
Partnership are John W. Henry & Company, Inc. and Sunrise Capital
Partners, LLC (collectively, the ?Trading Advisors?).

2.  Related Party Transactions
The Partnership?s cash is on deposit with Morgan Stanley DW, MS &
Co. and MSIL in futures, forwards, and options trading accounts to
meet margin requirements as needed.  Morgan Stanley DW pays
interest on these funds based on a prevailing rate on U.S.
Treasury bills.  The Partnership pays brokerage fees to Morgan
Stanley DW.

3.  Financial Instruments
The Partnership trades futures contracts, options on futures
contracts, and forward contracts in global currency markets.
Futures and forwards represent contracts for delayed delivery of
an instrument at a specified date and price.  Risk arises from
changes in the value of these contracts and the potential
inability of counterparties to perform under the terms of the
contracts.  There are numerous factors which may significantly
influence the market value of these contracts, including interest
rate volatility.
<page> MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM CURRENCY L.P.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

The market value of contracts is based on closing prices quoted
by the exchange, bank or clearing firm through which the
contracts are traded.

The Partnership?s contracts are accounted for on a trade-date
basis and marked to market on a daily basis. The Partnership
accounts for its derivative investments in accordance with the
provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
133, ?Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities? (?SFAS No. 133?).  SFAS No. 133 defines a derivative
as a financial instrument or other contract that has all three of
the following characteristics:

1)	One or more underlying notional amounts or payment
provisions;
2)	Requires no initial net investment or a smaller initial net
investment than would be required relative to changes in
market factors;
3)	Terms require or permit net settlement.

Generally, derivatives include futures, forward, swaps or options
contracts, and other financial instruments with similar
characteristics such as caps, floors and collars.

The net unrealized gains (losses) on open contracts, reported as a
component of ?Equity in futures interests trading accounts? on the
statements of financial condition, and their longest contract
maturities were as follows:

Dec. 31, 2002	         ?      5,651,549	5,651,549	-	Mar. 2003

The Partnership has credit risk associated with counterparty non-
performance.  The credit risk associated with the instruments in
which the Partnership is involved is limited to the amounts
reflected in the Partnership?s statements of financial condition.



The Partnership also has credit risk because Morgan Stanley DW, MS
& Co., and MSIL act as the futures commission merchants or the
counterparties with respect to most of the Partnership?s assets.
Exchange-traded futures and futures-styled options contracts are
marked to market on a daily basis, with variations in value
settled on a daily basis.  Each of Morgan Stanley DW, MS & Co. and
MSIL, as a futures commission merchant for the Partnership?s
exchange-traded futures and futures-styled options contracts, are



<page> MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM CURRENCY L.P.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONCLUDED)

required, pursuant to regulations of the Commodity Futures Trading
Commission (?CFTC?), to segregate from their own assets, and for
the sole benefit of their commodity customers, all funds held by
them with respect to exchange-traded futures and futures-styled
options contracts, including an amount equal to the net unrealized
gains (losses) on all open futures and futures-styled options
contracts.  With respect to the Partnership?s off-exchange-traded
forward currency contracts, there are no daily settlements of
variations in value nor is there any requirement that an amount
equal to the net unrealized gains (losses) on open forward
contracts be segregated. With respect to those off-exchange-traded
forward currency contracts, the Partnership is at risk to the
ability of MS & Co., the sole counterparty on all of such
contracts, to perform.  The Partnership has a netting agreement
with MS & Co.  This agreement, which seeks to reduce both the
Partnership?s and MS & Co.?s exposure on off-exchange-traded
forward currency contracts, should materially decrease the
Partnership?s credit risk in the event of MS & Co.?s bankruptcy or
insolvency.


<page> Item 2. MANAGEMENT?S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
            CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Liquidity.  The Partnership deposits its assets with Morgan
Stanley DW as non-clearing broker, and MS & Co. and MSIL as
clearing brokers in separate futures, forwards, and options
trading accounts established for each trading advisor, which
assets are used as margin to engage in trading. The assets are
held in either non-interest bearing bank accounts or in securities
and instruments permitted by the CFTC for investment of customer
segregated or secured funds.  The Partnership?s assets held by the
commodity brokers may be used as margin solely for the
Partnership?s trading.  Since the Partnership?s sole purpose is to
trade in futures, forwards, and options, it is expected that the
Partnership will continue to own such liquid assets for margin
purposes.

The Partnership?s investment in futures, forwards, and options
may, from time to time, be illiquid.  Most U.S. futures exchanges
limit fluctuations in prices during a single day by regulations
referred to as ?daily price fluctuations limits? or ?daily
limits?.  Trades may not be executed at prices beyond the daily
limit.  If the price for a particular futures or options contract
has increased or decreased by an amount equal to the daily limit,
positions in that futures or options contract can neither be taken
nor liquidated unless traders are willing to effect trades at or
within the limit. Futures prices have occasionally moved the daily
<page> limit for several consecutive days with little or no
trading.  These market conditions could prevent the Partnership
from promptly liquidating its futures or options contracts and
result in restrictions on redemptions.

There is no limitation on daily price moves in trading forward
contracts on foreign currencies.  The markets for some world
currencies have low trading volume and are illiquid, which may
prevent the Partnership from trading in potentially profitable
markets or prevent the Partnership from promptly liquidating
unfavorable positions in such markets, subjecting it to
substantial losses.  Either of these market conditions could
result in restrictions on redemptions.

The Partnership has never had illiquidity affect a material
portion of its assets. Furthermore, there are no material trends,
demands, commitments, events or uncertainties known at the present
time that will result in, or that are reasonably likely to result
in, the Partnership?s liquidity increasing or decreasing in any
material way.

Capital Resources.  The Partnership does not have, nor expect to
have, any capital assets.  Redemptions, exchanges and sales of
additional units of limited partnership interest (?Unit(s)?) in
the future will affect the amount of funds available for
investment in futures, forwards, and options in subsequent
<page> periods. It is not possible to estimate the amount, and
therefore the impact, of future redemptions of Units.

There are no known material trends, favorable or unfavorable, that
would affect, nor any expected material changes to, the
Partnership?s capital resource arrangements at the present time.
The Partnership has no off-balance sheet arrangements, nor
contractual obligations or commercial commitments to make future
payments that would affect the Partnership?s liquidity or capital
resources.  The contracts traded by the Partnership are accounted
for on a trade-date basis and marked to market on a daily basis.
The value of futures contracts is the settlement price on the
exchange on which that futures contract is traded on a particular
day and the value of foreign currency forward contracts is based
on the spot rate as of the close of business, New York City time,
on a given day.

Results of Operations
General.  The Partnership?s results depend on the Trading
Advisors and the ability of each Trading Advisor?s trading
program to take advantage of price movements or other profit
opportunities in the futures, forwards, and options markets.  The
following presents a summary of the Partnership?s operations for
the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 and
a general discussion of its trading activities during each
period. It is important to note, however, that the Trading
<page> Advisors trade in various markets at different times and
that prior activity in a particular market does not mean that
such market will be actively traded by the Trading Advisors or
will be profitable in the future. Consequently, the results of
operations of the Partnership are difficult to discuss other than
in the context of the Trading Advisors? trading activities on
behalf of the Partnership and how the Partnership has performed in
the past.

The Partnership?s results of operations set forth in the
financial statements on pages 2 through 11 of this report were
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America, which require the use
of certain accounting policies that affect the amounts reported
in these financial statements, including the following: The
contracts the Partnership trades are accounted for on a trade-
date basis and marked to market on a daily basis.  The difference
between their cost and market value is recorded on the Statements
of Operations as ?Net change in unrealized profit/loss? for open
(unrealized) contracts, and recorded as ?Realized profit/loss?
when open positions are closed out, and the sum of these amounts
constitutes the Partnership?s trading revenues. Interest income
revenue, as well as management fees, incentive fees and brokerage
fees expenses of the Partnership are recorded on an accrual
basis.

<page> Demeter believes that, based on the nature of the
operations of the Partnership, no assumptions relating to the
application of critical accounting policies other than those
presently used could reasonably affect reported amounts.

For the Quarter and Six Months Ended June 30, 2003
For the quarter ended June 30, 2003, the Partnership recorded
total trading revenues, including interest income, of
$6,641,296 and posted an increase in net asset value per Unit.
The most significant gains of approximately 7.0% were recorded
from long positions in the euro versus the U.S. dollar during May
as the value of the euro strengthened to an all-time high amid
uncertainty regarding the Bush Administration?s economic policy,
renewed fears of potential terrorist attacks against American
interests, and investors preference for non-U.S. dollar
denominated assets.  Additional gains of approximately 5.2%
resulted from long positions in the Australian dollar versus the
U.S. dollar during April, May, and June as the Australian dollar?s
value strengthened in response to continued weakness in the U.S.
dollar and higher interest rates relative to those in the U.S.,
Europe and Asia.  A portion of the Partnership?s gains for the
quarter was offset by losses of approximately 3.4% recorded from
short positions in the British pound versus the U.S. dollar during
April, as the pound strengthened early in the month amid
expectations that the Bank of England would likely leave interest
rates unchanged, and during May, due to the release of lower-than-
<page> expected unemployment data from Great Britain.  Long
positions in the British pound versus the U.S. dollar during June
resulted in further losses as value of the pound reversed lower
following comments from the British Finance Minister concerning
the U.K.?s prospects for entry into the European Monetary Union.
Additional losses of approximately 1.6% and 1.0% resulted from
positions in the Japanese yen and Singapore dollar, respectively,
versus the U.S. dollar during May as the value of these currencies
strengthened and then reversed lower amid speculation that the
Bank of Japan favored a weaker yen to spur economic activity.
Smaller losses of approximately 0.8% stemmed from long positions
in the South African rand versus the U.S. dollar as the value of
the rand reversed lower during May amid growing speculation of an
interest rate cut by the Reserve Bank of South Africa.  Total
expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2003 were $3,372,435,
resulting in net income of $3,268,861. The net asset value of a
Unit increased from $14.48 at March 31, 2003 to $14.93 at June 30,
2003.

For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Partnership recorded
total trading revenues, including interest income, of $12,963,261
and posted an increase in net asset value per Unit.  The most
significant gains of approximately 12.6% were recorded from long
positions in the euro versus the U.S. dollar as the value of the
euro strengthened to an all-time high during May amid uncertainty
regarding the Bush Administration?s economic policy, renewed
<page> fears of potential terrorist attacks against American
interests, and investor preference for non-U.S. dollar
denominated assets. During January and April, gains were also
experienced from long positions in the euro versus the U.S.
dollar as the U.S. dollar?s value weakened amid renewed fears of
a military conflict with Iraq, increased tensions with North
Korea, and weak U.S. economic data.  Additional gains of
approximately 7.3% resulted from long positions in the Australian
dollar versus the U.S. dollar as the Australian currency
strengthened in response to continued weakness in the U.S.
dollar, higher interest rates relative to those in the U.S.,
Europe and Asia, and higher gold prices earlier in the year.
Smaller gains were provided from long positions in the New
Zealand dollar versus the U.S. dollar as the New Zealand dollar?s
value increased on the heels of higher gold prices and strength
in the Australian dollar.  A portion of the Partnership?s gains
for the first half of the year was offset by losses of
approximately 3.8% and 2.4% from positions in the Japanese yen
and Singapore dollar, respectively, versus the U.S. dollar as the
value of these currencies moved without consistent direction
versus the U.S. dollar.  Losses of approximately 3.7% resulted
during April and May from short positions in the British pound
versus the U.S. dollar as the value of the pound strengthened
early in the month amid expectations that the Bank of England
would likely leave interest rates unchanged and the release of
lower-than-expected unemployment data from Great Britain.  During
<page> June, losses stemmed from long positions in the British
pound versus the U.S. dollar as it?s value increased early in the
month, amid expectations that the Bank of England would likely
leave interest rates unchanged, and then reversed lower, after
the British Finance Minister released positive comments regarding
the U.K.?s entry prospects into the European Monetary Union.
Total expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were
$6,033,998, resulting in net income of $6,929,263. The net asset
value of a Unit increased from $13.93 at December 31, 2002 to
$14.93 at June 30, 2003.

For the Quarter and Six Months Ended June 30, 2002
For the quarter ended June 30, 2002, the Partnership recorded
total trading revenues, including interest income, of $15,457,288
and posted an increase in net asset value per Unit.  The most
significant gains of approximately 10.2% were recorded primarily
during May and June from previously established long positions in
the euro as its value strengthened relative to the U.S. dollar
amid falling equity prices, concerns regarding corporate
accounting integrity, and weak U.S. economic data.  Gains of
approximately 4.5% from previously established long positions in
the Swiss franc and approximately 2.7% from previously
established long positions in the Norwegian krone were recorded
as the value of these currencies also strengthened relative to
the U.S. dollar due to the aforementioned reasons.  Additional
gains of approximately 2.5% were recorded from long positions in
<page> the Australian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar as its
value benefited from the weakness in the U.S. dollar and rising
gold prices.  Total expenses for the three months ended June 30,
2002 were $2,225,993, resulting in net income of $13,231,295.
The net asset value of a Unit increased from $11.24 at March 31,
2002 to $13.84 at June 30, 2002.

For the six months ended June 30, 2002, the Partnership recorded
total trading revenues, including interest income, of $11,348,381
and posted an increase in net asset value per Unit.  The most
significant gains of approximately 8.3% were recorded primarily
during May and June from previously established long positions in
the euro as its value strengthened relative to the U.S. dollar
amid falling equity prices, concerns regarding corporate
accounting integrity, and weak U.S. economic data.  Gains of
approximately 3.7% from previously established long positions in
the Swiss franc and approximately 2.8% from previously
established long positions in the Norwegian krone were recorded
as the value of these currencies also strengthened relative to
the U.S. dollar due to the aforementioned reasons.  Additional
gains of approximately 3.3% were recorded from long positions in
the Australian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar as its value
benefited from the weakness in the U.S. dollar and rising gold
prices.  Total expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2002
were $3,061,638, resulting in net income of $8,286,743.  The net
<page> asset value of a Unit increased from $12.41 at December
31, 2001 to $13.84 at June 30, 2002.
<page> Item 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT
MARKET RISK


Introduction
The Partnership is a commodity pool engaged primarily in the
speculative trading of futures, forwards, and options.  The
market-sensitive instruments held by the Partnership are acquired
for speculative trading purposes only and, as a result, all or
substantially all of the Partnership?s assets are at risk of
trading loss.  Unlike an operating company, the risk of market-
sensitive instruments is central, not incidental, to the
Partnership?s main business activities.

The futures, forwards, and options traded by the Partnership
involve varying degrees of related market risk.  Market risk is
often dependent upon changes in the level or volatility of
interest rates, exchange rates, and prices of financial
instruments and commodities.  Fluctuations in market risk based
upon these factors result in frequent changes in the fair value
of the Partnership?s open positions, and consequently in its
earnings and cash flow.

The Partnership?s total market risk is influenced by a wide
variety of factors, including the diversification among the
Partnership?s open positions, the volatility present within the
markets, and the liquidity of the markets.  At different times,
<page> each of these factors may act to increase or decrease the
market risk associated with the Partnership.

The Partnership?s past performance is not necessarily indicative
of its future results.  Any attempt to numerically quantify the
Partnership?s market risk is limited by the uncertainty of its
speculative trading.  The Partnership?s speculative trading may
cause future losses and volatility (i.e., ?risk of ruin?) that
far exceed the Partnership?s experience to date or any reasonable
expectations based upon historical changes in market value.

Quantifying the Partnership?s Trading Value at Risk
The following quantitative disclosures regarding the Partnership?s
market risk exposures contain ?forward-looking statements? within
the meaning of the safe harbor from civil liability provided for
such statements by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995 (set forth in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934).  All
quantitative disclosures in this section are deemed to be forward-
looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor, except for
statements of historical fact.

The Partnership accounts for open positions on the basis of mark-
to-market accounting principles.  Any loss in the market value of
the Partnership?s open positions is directly reflected in the
Partnership?s earnings, whether realized or unrealized, and its
<page> cash flow.  Profits and losses on open positions of
exchange-traded futures, forwards, and options are settled daily
through variation margin.

The Partnership?s risk exposure in the market sectors traded by
the Trading Advisors is estimated below in terms of Value at Risk
(?VaR?). The VaR model used by the Partnership includes many
variables that could change the market value of the Partnership?s
trading portfolio.  The Partnership estimates VaR using a model
based upon historical simulation with a confidence level of 99%.
Historical simulation involves constructing a distribution of
hypothetical daily changes in the value of a trading portfolio.
The VaR model takes into account linear exposures to price and
interest rate risk.  Market risks that are incorporated in the
VaR model include equity and commodity prices, interest rates,
foreign exchange rates, and correlation among these variables.
The hypothetical changes in portfolio value are based on daily
percentage changes observed in key market indices or other market
factors (?market risk factors?) to which the portfolio is
sensitive.  The historical observation period of the
Partnership?s VaR is approximately four years.  The one-day 99%
confidence level of the Partnership?s VaR corresponds to the
negative change in portfolio value that, based on observed market
risk factors, would have been exceeded once in 100 trading days.
In other words, one-day VaR for a portfolio is a number such that
losses in this portfolio are estimated to exceed the VaR only one
<page> day in 100. VaR typically does not represent the worst
case outcome.

VaR is calculated using historical simulation.  Demeter uses
approximately four years of daily market data (1,000 observations)
and revalues its portfolio (using delta-gamma approximations) for
each of the historical market moves that occurred over this time
period.  This generates a probability distribution of daily
?simulated profit and loss? outcomes.  The VaR is the appropriate
percentile of this distribution.  For example, the 99% one-day VaR
would represent the 10th worst outcome from Demeter?s simulated
profit and loss series.

The Partnership?s VaR computations are based on the risk
representation of the underlying benchmark for each instrument or
contract and do not distinguish between exchange and non-exchange-
traded instruments and are also not based on exchange and/or
dealer-based margin requirements.

VaR models, including the Partnership?s, are continuously
evolving as trading portfolios become more diverse and modeling
techniques and systems capabilities improve.  Please note that
the VaR model is used to numerically quantify market risk for
historic reporting purposes only and is not utilized by either
Demeter or the Trading Advisors in their daily risk management
activities.  Please further note that VaR as described above may
<page> not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by
other entities.

The Partnership?s Value at Risk in Different Market Sectors
The following table indicates the VaR associated with the
Partnership?s open positions as a percentage of total net assets
by primary market risk category at June 30, 2003 and 2002.  At
June 30, 2003 and 2002, the Partnership?s total capitalization
was approximately $138 million and $76 million, respectively.

	Primary Market 	 June 30, 2003	  		June 30, 2002
     Risk Category	  	 Value at Risk	  		Value at Risk

      Currency				(1.44)%	     		(2.81)%

The VaR for a market category represents the one-day downside
risk for the aggregate exposures associated with this market
category.  The table above represents the VaR of the Partner-
ship?s open positions at June 30, 2003 and 2002 only and is not
necessarily representative of either the historic or future risk
of an investment in the Partnership. Because the Partnership?s
only business is the speculative trading of futures, forwards,
and options, the composition of its trading portfolio can change
significantly over any given time period, or even within a single
trading day. Any changes in open positions could positively or
negatively materially impact market risk as measured by VaR.

<page> The table below supplements the quarter-end VaR by
presenting the Partnership?s high, low, and average VaR, as a
percentage of total net assets for the four quarterly reporting
periods from July 1, 2002 through June 30, 2003.

Primary Market Risk Category        High      Low      Average
Currency   	(3.97)%	(1.20)%	(2.63)%



Limitations on Value at Risk as an Assessment of Market Risk
The face value of the market sector instruments held by the
Partnership is typically many times the applicable margin
requirements.  Margin requirements generally range between 2% and
15% of contract face value. Additionally, the use of leverage
causes the face value of the market sector instruments held by the
Partnership to typically be many times the total capitalization of
the Partnership.  The value of the Partnership?s open positions
thus creates a ?risk of ruin? not typically found in other
investments.  The relative size of the positions held may cause
the Partnership to incur losses greatly in excess of VaR within a
short period of time, given the effects of the leverage employed
and market volatility.  The VaR tables above, as well as the past
performance of the Partnership, give no indication of such ?risk
of ruin?. In addition, VaR risk measures should be viewed in light
of the methodology?s limitations, which include the following:


<page>
*	past changes in market risk factors will not always result in
accurate predictions of the distributions and correlations of
future market movements;
*	changes in portfolio value caused by market movements may
differ from those of the VaR model;
*	VaR results reflect past trading positions while future risk
depends on future positions;
*	VaR using a one-day time horizon does not fully capture the
market risk of positions that cannot be liquidated or hedged
within one day; and
*	the historical market risk factor data used for VaR estimation
may provide only limited insight into losses that could be
incurred under certain unusual market movements.

The VaR tables above present the results of the Partnership?s VaR
for its market risk exposures at June 30, 2003 and 2002, and for
the end of the four quarterly reporting periods from July 1, 2002
through June 30, 2003.  Since VaR is based on historical data, VaR
should not be viewed as predictive of the Partnership?s future
financial performance or its ability to manage or monitor risk.
There can be no assurance that the Partnership?s actual losses on
a particular day will not exceed the VaR amounts indicated above
or that such losses will not occur more than once in 100 trading
days.

<page>
Non-Trading Risk
The Partnership has non-trading market risk on its foreign cash
balances not needed for margin.  The Partnership did not have any
foreign currency balances at June 30, 2003.

At June 30, 2003, the Partnership?s cash balance at Morgan Stanley
DW was approximately 91% of its total net asset value.  A decline
in short-term interest rates will result in a decline in the
Partnership?s cash management income. This cash flow risk is not
considered to be material.

Materiality, as used throughout this section, is based on an
assessment of reasonably possible market movements and any
associated potential losses, taking into account the leverage,
optionality and multiplier features of the Partnership?s market-
sensitive instruments, in relation to the Partnership?s net
assets.

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Primary Trading Risk Exposures
The following qualitative disclosures regarding the Partnership?s
market risk exposures ? except for (A) those disclosures that are
statements of historical fact and (B) the descriptions of how the
Partnership manages its primary market risk exposures ? constitute
forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of
the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act.
<page> The Partnership?s primary market risk exposures as well as
the strategies used and to be used by Demeter and the Trading
Advisors for managing such exposures are subject to numerous
uncertainties, contingencies and risks, any one of which could
cause the actual results of the Partnership?s risk controls to
differ materially from the objectives of such strategies.
Government interventions, defaults and expropriations, illiquid
markets, the emergence of dominant fundamental factors, political
upheavals, changes in historical price relationships, an influx of
new market participants, increased regulation and many other
factors could result in material losses as well as in material
changes to the risk exposures and the risk management strategies
of the Partnership.  Investors must be prepared to lose all or
substantially all of their investment in the Partnership.

The following was the only trading risk exposure of the
Partnership at June 30, 2003.  It may be anticipated, however,
that market exposure will vary materially over time.

Currency.  The Partnership?s currency exposure at June 30, 2003
was to exchange rate fluctuations, primarily fluctuations which
disrupt the historical pricing relationships between different
currencies and currency pairs.  Interest rate changes as well as
political and general economic conditions influence these
fluctuations.  The partnership trades a large number of
currencies.  At June 30, 2003, the Partnership?s exposure was to
<page> outright U.S. dollar positions.  Outright positions
consist of the U.S. dollar vs. other currencies.  These other
currencies include major and minor currencies.  Demeter does not
anticipate that the risk profile of the Partnership?s currency
sector will change significantly in the future.  The currency
trading VaR figure includes foreign margin amounts converted into
U.S. dollars with an incremental adjustment to reflect the
exchange rate risk inherent to the U.S.-based Partnership in
expressing VaR in a functional currency other than U.S. dollars.

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Non-Trading Risk Exposure
At June 30, 2003, there was no non-trading risk exposure because
the Partnership did not have any foreign currency balances.

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Means of Managing Risk Exposure
The Partnership and the Trading Advisors, separately, attempt to
manage the risk of the Partnership?s open positions in
essentially the same manner in all market categories traded.
Demeter attempts to manage market exposure by diversifying the
Partnership?s assets among different Trading Advisors, each of
whose strategies focus on different trading approaches, and
monitoring the performance of the Trading Advisors daily.  In
addition, the Trading Advisors establish diversification
guidelines, often set in terms of the maximum margin to be
committed to positions in any one market sector or market-
sensitive instrument.
<page> Demeter monitors and controls the risk of the
Partnership?s non-trading instrument, cash.  Cash is the only
Partnership investment directed by Demeter, rather than the
Trading Advisors.
