MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM CURRENCY L.P.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2002

(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, 2001 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 Commodity L.P., 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

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

Morgan Stanley DW Inc. ("Morgan Stanley DW"). The clearing
commodity brokers are Morgan Stanley & Co., Inc. ("MS & 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.  Brokerage fees are paid 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



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

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.

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 Standard 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;



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

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:

                      Net Unrealized Gains(Losses)
                       on Open Contracts                 Longest Maturities

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.

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

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
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



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

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 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 currency.  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.

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.

The Partnership has never had illiquidity affect a material
portion of its assets.

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

<page>
the future will affect the amount of funds available for
investment in futures, forwards, and options in subsequent
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, 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 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
programs to take advantage of price movements or other profit
opportunities in the futures, forwards, and options markets.  The



<page>
following presents a summary of the Partnership's operations for
the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2002 and
2001, and a general discussion of its trading activities during
each period.  It is important to note, however, that the Trading
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 are set forth in
financial statements prepared in accordance with United States
generally accepted accounting principles, 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.  Earned interest


<page>
income revenue, as well as management fees, incentive fees and
brokerage fees expenses of the Partnership are recorded on an
accrual basis.

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

For the Quarter and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2002
For the quarter ended September 30, 2002, the Partnership recorded
total trading losses, net of interest income, of $7,254,255 and
posted a decrease in net asset value per Unit.  The most
significant losses of approximately 5.4% were recorded in minor
currencies, predominantly from long positions in the Polish zloty,
South African rand, and New Zealand dollar, as well as from short
positions in the Mexican peso.  Additional losses of approximately
1.6% and 1.3% were recorded from long positions in the British
pound and the euro, respectively, as their values reversed lower
versus the U.S. dollar due to the emphasis on a "strong dollar"
policy by the Bush Administration during July and the persistence
of trendless price activity during August and September.  Losses
of approximately 0.9% were recorded from long positions in the
Japanese yen during August and September as the value of the yen
reversed lower relative to the U.S. dollar amid renewed concerns
regarding Japan's economic woes.  Total expenses for the three

<page>
months ended September 30, 2002 were $1,277,109, resulting in a
net loss of $8,531,364.  The net asset value of a Unit decreased
from $13.84 at June 30, 2002 to $12.36 at September 30, 2002.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Partnership
recorded total trading revenues, including interest income, of
$4,094,126 and, after expenses, posted a decrease in net asset
value per Unit.  The most significant gains of approximately 6.8%
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.  Previously established long positions in the Australian
dollar provided gains of approximately 3.2% as the currency
strengthened relative to the U.S. dollar, primarily during March
and May, due to rising gold prices.  Long positions in the Swiss
franc resulted in further gains of approximately 3.2%, primarily
during April, May, and June, as its value strengthened relative to
the U.S. dollar due to weak economic forecasts.  Smaller gains of
approximately 2.5% were recorded predominantly during the second
quarter from long positions in the minor currencies, such as the
Norwegian krone.  These gains were partially offset by losses of
approximately 4.8% recorded from transactions involving the
British pound during June, July, and August as its value
fluctuated without consistent direction versus the U.S. dollar.


<page>
Smaller losses of approximately 3.8% were recorded throughout a
majority of the year from transactions involving the Japanese yen
as its value also experienced erratic movements versus the U.S.
dollar amid concerns regarding the state of Japan's economy.
Total expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 were
$4,338,747, resulting in a net loss of $244,621. The net asset
value of a Unit decreased from $12.41 at December 31, 2001 to
$12.36 at September 30, 2002.

For the Quarter and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2001
For the quarter ended September 30, 2001, the Partnership recorded
total trading losses, net of interest income, of $230,606 and
posted a decrease in net asset value per Unit. The most
significant losses of approximately 3.3% were recorded primarily
during August from short positions in the Japanese yen as the
value of the yen strengthened versus the U.S. dollar due to U.S.
economic weakness. Losses of approximately 1.6% were experienced
primarily during July from short positions in the euro and Swiss
franc as the value of these European currencies reversed higher
versus the U.S. dollar following Chairman Greenspan's testimony
highlighting that the U.S. economy still faces weakness.  Benign
European inflation data also boosted the values of these
currencies.  During September, losses were recorded from long
positions in the euro and Japanese yen as their values reversed
lower and the U.S. dollar strengthened amid newly released


<page>
optimistic economic data out of the U.S. and the Bank of Japan's
surprise interventions, which also boosted the U.S. dollar.
Losses of approximately 0.8% were experienced during early July
from long positions in the Mexican peso as its value weakened
relative to the U.S. dollar on worries that Argentina won't meet
its debt obligations and that Argentina's economic crisis could
hit Mexico.  These losses were partially offset by gains of
approximately 4.1% recorded primarily during September from short
positions in the South African rand as its value trended lower
relative to the U.S. dollar as investors targeted the emerging
market currency while global economic jitters persisted.  Total
expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2001 were
$524,988, resulting in a net loss of $755,594.  The net asset
value of a Unit decreased from $11.50 at June 30, 2001 to $11.18
at September 30, 2001.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Partnership
recorded total trading revenues, including interest income, of
$1,283,553 and, after expenses, posted a net loss.  The net asset
value per Unit, however, increased 1 cent due to a large increase
in number of Units outstanding.  The most significant gains of
approximately 3.4% were recorded from short positions in the
Singapore dollar as its value weakened versus the U.S. dollar on
the heels of the declining Japanese yen. Gains of approximately


<page>
1.4% were recorded throughout the majority of the first quarter
from short positions in the Japanese yen as the value of the yen
weakened relative to the U.S. dollar on continuing concerns for
the Japanese economy and in both anticipation and reaction to the
Bank of Japan's decision to reinstate its zero interest rate
policy.  Profits of approximately 1.3% were recorded primarily
during September from short positions in the South African rand
as its value trended lower relative to the U.S. dollar as
investors targeted the emerging market currency while global
economic jitters persisted. These gains were partially offset by
losses of approximately 2.0% recorded primarily during May and
early June from long positions in the British pound as its value
weakened relative to the U.S. dollar in reaction to reports that
British Prime Minister Blair will push for Great Britain's entry
into the European Monetary Union.  Total expenses for the nine
months ended September 30, 2001 were $1,476,642, resulting in a
net loss of $193,089.  The net asset value of a Unit increased
from $11.17 at December 31, 2000 to $11.18 at September 30, 2001
due to the increase in Partnership total Units that reduced the
per Unit effect of the loss on earlier gains.

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


<page>
markets, and the liquidity of the markets.  At different times,
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

<page>
the Partnership's open positions is directly reflected in the
Partnership's earnings, whether realized or unrealized, and its
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


<page>
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
day in 100.

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.

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
not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other
entities.

<page>
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 September 30, 2002 and 2001.
The VaR for a market category represents the one-day downside
risk for the aggregate exposures associated with this market
category. At September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Partnership's total
capitalization was approximately $77 million and $36 million,
respectively.
	Primary Market      September 30, 2002	September 30, 2001
     Risk Category	  	  Value at Risk	  Value at Risk

Currency				(3.97)%	 		(1.72)%

The table above represents the VaR of the Partnership's open
positions at September 30, 2002 and 2001 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.

The table below supplements the quarter-end VaR by presenting the
Partnership's high, low, and average VaR, as a percentage of

<page>
total net assets for the four quarterly reporting periods from
October 1, 2001 through September 30, 2002.

Primary Market Risk Category        High      Low      Average
Currency   	(3.97)%	(1.35)%	(2.77)%



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:
?	past changes in market risk factors will not always result in
accurate predictions of the distributions and correlations of
future market movements;

<page>
?	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 exposure at September 30, 2002 and 2001, and
for the end of the four quarterly reporting periods from October
1, 2001 through September 30, 2002.  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 September 30, 2002.

At September 30, 2002, the Partnership's cash balance at Morgan
Stanley DW was approximately 98% 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 September 30, 2002.  It may be anticipated,
however, that market exposure will vary materially over time.

Currency.  The Partnership's currency exposure at September 30,
2002 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

<page>
currencies.  At September 30, 2002, the Partnership's exposure
was mostly to 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 September 30, 2002, 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



<page>
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.

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.

Item 4.	CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a)	As of a date within 90 days of the filing date of this
quarterly report, the President and Chief Financial

CERTIFICATIONS

I, Jeffrey A. Rothman, President of Demeter Management
Corporation, the general partner of the Partnership, certify that:

1.		I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of the
Partnership;

2.	Based on my knowledge, this quarterly report does not contain
any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light
of the circumstances under which such statements were made,
