                                     PART I


Item 1.  BUSINESS

This Annual Report is being filed by State Street Bank and Trust Company, solely
in its capacity as Trustee (in such capacity, the Trustee) under the Pooling
Agreement dated as of April 1, 1998 (the "Pooling Agreement") between Fund
America Investors Corporation II, as Seller ("Registrant") and State Street Bank
and Trust Company, as Trustee, pursuant to which Pooling Agreement the
Registrant's Pass-Through Certificates, Series 1998-A (the "Certificates") were
issued. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the
respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Pooling Agreement.

Certain of the information requested by this item is not applicable as the only
business of the Trust Fund formed under the Pooling Agreement is the receipt of
distributions from a portion of (i) one class of Guaranteed REMIC Pass-Through
Certificates issued by Fannie Mae, formerly known as the Federal National
Mortgage Association ("Fannie Mae"), representing beneficial ownership interest
in a separate trust established by Fannie Mae (the "Pooled Fannie Mae
Certificate"), (ii) two class of certificates issued by Freddie Mac, formerly
known as the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac"), as part of
separate series of such certificates, including one class of Payment Exchange
Certificates and one class of Multiclass REMIC Certificates (the "Pooled Freddie
Mac Certificates", and together with the Pooled Fannie Mae Certificate, the
"Pooled Agency Certificates"), (iii) a single class of collateralized mortgage
obligations, Series 1993-A, issued by the Fund America Investors Trust I (the
"Pooled Non-Agency Certificate," and together with the Pooled Agency
Certificates, the "Pooled Certificates"), and (iv) certain United States
Treasury Securities (the "Treasury Securities", and together with the Pooled
Certificates, the "Underlying Certificates"), which portion of the Underlying
Certificates are the only assets of the Trust.

The information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K has been or is
based on information supplied to the Trustee by third parties without
independent review or investigation by the Trustee and no representation or
warranty of any kind is made by the Trustee with respect to such information.

As used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, "Not Applicable" or "not applicable"
means that the response to the referenced item is omitted in reliance on the
procedures outlined in numerous no-action letters issued by the Commission's
Staff with respect to certificates substantially similar to the Certificates.

Item 2.  PROPERTIES

Information regarding the assets of the Trust has been set forth in the
Prospectus and Prospectus Supplement relating to the Certificates and filed with
the Commission.

Item 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Registrant knows of no material pending legal proceedings involving either
of (i) the Trust (including the Underlying Certificates) or (ii) with respect to
the Certificates or the Trust, the Registrant or the Trustee, other than
ordinary routine litigation, if any, incidental to the Trustee's or the
Registrant's duties under the Pooling Agreement and not material when taken as a
whole.

Item 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

No matters were submitted to a vote or consent of the holders of the
Certificates during the period covered by this report.

Classes of the Certificates, including direct participants of the Depository
Trust Company ("DTC") but excluding Cede & Co., DTC's nominee. The computation
