Shareholders Letter


February 29, 2008
Dear Shareholders:
We are pleased to present this report for the Greenwich Advisors India Select Fund, covering the seven-month period between the Fund’s inception on August 1, 2007 and February 29, 2008.
The Indian stock market climbed rapidly during the first several months of this period, then declined sharply as foreign investors pulled capital out of Indian stocks. The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) 100 Index1, which tracks the returns of stocks throughout India, gained 18.58% during the period under review, while the India Select Fund posted a net loss of 1.00% (Class A Shares without load).
Market overview
Strong economic growth fueled powerful stock market gains during the last five months of 2007. India’s gross domestic product2 grew at an annualized rate of roughly 9% during calendar year 2007, contributing to a surge in consumer spending. Strong consumption in turn supported large gains in corporate earnings, particularly among banks and consumer-oriented firms such as providers of wireless telephones. New oil and gas finds and increasing bullishness on the power sector meanwhile buoyed the stock prices of energy companies.
  The BSE 100 gained nearly 49% (denominated in rupees) between August 1, 2007 and January 7, 2008.
 
  Indian stocks then declined precipitously, with the BSE 100 falling more than 18% from its peak through the end of February.
 
  Foreign institutional investors became concerned about potential fallout from the U.S. sub prime mortgage crisis and the resulting credit crunch, as well as high valuations among Indian stocks, the BSE 100 traded at a price-to-earnings ratio of just under 30 as of Jan 7, 2008.
 
  Those Large stockholders took steps to secure stability and liquidity by shifting assets from equities in emerging markets, such as India, to safer asset classes in the U.S. and Europe. The BSE 100 Index’s losses came despite generally healthy economic growth and corporate earnings.
 
  Information technology and pharmaceutical stocks fared especially poorly, in part because a weakening U.S. dollar made it more difficult for the Indian firms to export their goods.
Investment Concerns:
Equity securities (stocks) are more volatile and carry more risk than other forms of investments, including investments in high-grade fixed income securities. The net asset value per share of this Fund will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio changes.
International investing involves increased risk and volatility. An investment in this Fund entails the special risks of international investing, including currency exchange fluctuation, government regulations, and the potential for political and economic instability.
The geographical concentration of portfolio holdings in this Fund may involve increased risk.

Greenwich Advisors India Select Fund
Fund Performance Review

February 29, 2008
We based our management strategy during this fiscal period on two investment themes: infrastructure spending and consumption. We focused on buying stocks of companies that stood to benefit from those themes when they traded at attractive valuations.*
The Fund held a large percentage of assets in cash during the early part of the year due to concerns about valuations. We later bought stocks in the infrastructure, banking and retail industries as valuations declined. The Fund’s underperformance during the period was largely driven by its cash allocation during the first months of the period.*
A large run-up in the energy sector also detracted from performance against the market capitalization-weighted BSE 100 Index. The index weighting method meant that increasing prices on energy stocks led to greater concentrations of energy stocks within the Index. This caused the Index to move up more rapidly than the Fund when energy stocks posted gains.
We sought to capitalize on increasing infrastructure spending in India by holding substantial weightings in industries such as machinery and engineering, metals and mining, power (including oil and gas), and building materials.*
We believed that strong economic growth would continue to cause the demand for energy to outstrip supply, providing healthy pricing power for these firms. These stocks (especially oil and gas shares) outperformed the market as a whole, so the Fund’s emphasis on them added to its returns relative to the benchmark.
A focus on the retail segment, through exposure to shares of cellular phone companies and banks, provided exposure to rapidly rising Indian consumer spending, and also helped boost performance.
The pharmaceutical and information technology sectors weighed on returns. As we noted above, the dollar’s weakness against the rupee depressed earnings in these largely export-driven sectors.*
Thank you for your trust in the Greenwich Advisors India Select Fund. We will continue to monitor changes in the Indian stock market and adjust the portfolio as our research unearths attractive investment opportunities. Please contact your investment advisor if you have any questions or require assistance.

The Trust is an open-end investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Trust is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares, which are units of beneficial interest with no par value. The Trust currently offers one fund, called the Greenwich Advisors India Select Fund (the “Fund”). The Fund commenced operations on August 30, 2007.
The investment objective for the Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation. To pursue its investment objective, the Fund will normally invest at least 80% of its assets in equity securities of companies in India. These securities are typically listed on stock exchanges in India, but also include securities traded in markets outside India, including securities trading in the form of depositary receipts or derivative securities. Equity securities include common stock, convertible stocks, stock exchange listed warrants, and any other such investments which entitle the holder to subscribe for or convert into the equity of the company and/or where the price is influenced significantly by the price of the company’s common stock.
The Fund is diversified, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund currently offers three classes of shares: Class A Shares, Class C Shares and Class I Shares. Each class of shares of the Fund has identical rights and privileges with respect to arrangements pertaining to shareholder servicing or distribution, class-related expenses, voting rights on matters affecting a single class of shares, and the exchange privilege of each class of shares. The Fund’s share classes differ in the fees and expenses charged to shareholders.
Under the Fund’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties for the Fund. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Fund may enter into contracts with vendors and others that provide general indemnification. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund. However, based on experience, the Fund expects that risk of loss to be remote.
2.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are in conformity with U.S. accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Security Valuations: Equity securities generally are valued by using market quotations, but may be valued on the basis of prices furnished by a pricing service when the Greewich Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”) believes such prices more accurately reflect the fair market value of such securities. Securities that are traded on any stock exchange or on the NASDAQ over-the-counter market are generally valued by the pricing service at the last quoted sale price. Lacking a last sale price, an equity security is generally valued by the pricing service at its last bid price. When market quotations are not readily available, when the Advisor determines that the market quotation or the price provided by the pricing service does not accurately reflect the current market value, or when restricted or illiquid securities are being valued, such securities are valued as determined in good faith by the Advisor, in conformity with guidelines adopted by and subject to review of the Board of Trustees of the Trust.
Currency Translation: For purposes of determining the Fund’s net asset value, all assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currency values are converted into U.S. dollar values at the prevailing market rate on each U.S. business day. The cost of securities is determined by using historical exchange rates. Income is translated at approximate rates prevailing when accrued. The Fund does not isolate that portion of gains and losses on investments which is due to changes in foreign exchange rates from that which is due to changes in the market prices of the investments. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains and losses from investments.
Security Transactions and Related Income: Changes in holdings of portfolio securities shall be reflected no later than the first calculation on the first business day following the trade date. However, for financial reporting purposes, portfolio securities transactions are reported on trade date. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis and includes, where applicable, the amortization or accretion of a premium or discount. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Gains or losses realized on sales of securities are determined by comparing the identified cost of the security lot sold with the net sales proceeds.
Accounting Pronouncements: Effective March 1, 2008, the Fund adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the affirmative evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax return to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not (i.e., greater than 50-percent chance) that each tax position will be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. Differences between tax positions taken in a tax return and amounts recognized in the financial statements will generally result in an increase in a liability for taxes payable (or a reduction of a tax refund receivable), including the recognition of any related interest and penalties as an operating expense. Implementation of FIN 48 includes a review of tax positions taken in tax years that remain subject to examination by tax authorities (i.e., the last 4 tax year ends and the interim tax

February 29, 2008
period since then, as applicable). At this time, management does not believe the adoption of FIN 48 will impact the Fund’s net assets or result of operations.
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement on Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” This standard establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by existing standards. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The changes to current accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America from the application of this Statement relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. As of February 29, 2008, the Fund does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will impact the financial statement amounts; however, additional disclosures may be required about the inputs used to develop the measurements and the effect of certain of the measurements on changes in net assets for the period.
Expenses: Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund. Each class of shares bears its respective pro-rata portion of the expenses, except that each class separately bears expenses related specifically to that class, such as distribution fees.
Dividends to Shareholders: Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid annually by the Fund. Dividends from net realized gains, if any, are declared and distributed at least annually by the Fund.
The amounts of dividends from net investment income and of distributions from net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal tax-basis treatment. Temporary differences do not require reclassification. To the extent dividends exceed net investment income and net realized gains for tax purposes, they are reported as distributions of capital.
Organization and Offering Expenses: All costs incurred by the Trust in connection with the organization of the Fund, principally professional fees and printing, were paid on behalf of the Trust by the Advisor, some of which will be borne by the Fund.
Costs incurred in connection with the offering and initial registration of the Trust have been deferred and will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the first twelve months after commencement of operations.
Federal Income Taxes: The Fund intends to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code necessary to qualify as a “regulated investment company” and to make the requisite distributions of taxable income to its shareholders which will be sufficient to relieve it from all or substantially all federal income taxes.
Dividends or interest on foreign securities may be subject to the withholding of the country of domicile’s income tax by treaty provisions or otherwise. Generally, there are no foreign taxes applicable to the Fund’s capital gains realized on foreign securities in the country of domicile.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those differences could be material.
Redemption Fees: A 1.00% redemption/exchange fee will be imposed by the Fund for shares redeemed or exchanged after holding them for less than 90 days. This fee does not apply to shares purchased through reinvested dividends or capital gains or shares held in certain omnibus accounts or retirement plans that cannot implement the fee.
3.   CONCENTRATION OF MARKET RISK
Because the Indian securities markets are substantially smaller, less liquid and more volatile than the major securities markets in the United States, Fund share values will be more volatile.
The value of Fund shares will be affected by political, economic, fiscal, regulatory or other developments in India.
The value of Fund shares is also sensitive to stock market volatility. If there is a decline in the value of stocks in the Indian markets, the value of Fund shares will also likely decline. Changes in stock market values, especially in emerging market countries, can be sudden and unpredictable. Also, although stock values can rebound, there is no assurance that values will return to previous levels. Because the Fund invests predominantly in foreign securities, the value of Fund shares can also be adversely affected by changes in currency exchange rates and political and economic developments abroad.

Auditor Opinion
February 29, 2008
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
Greenwich Advisors India Select Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of portfolio investments, of Greenwich Advisors Trust , comprised of the Greenwich Advisors India Select Fund (the “Fund”), as of February 29, 2008, and the related statement of operations, statement of changes, and financial highlights from August 30, 2007 (commencement of operations) through the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also 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. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of February 29, 2008, by correspondence with the custodian. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund comprising Greenwich Advisors Trust at February 29, 2008, the result of its operations, the changes in net assets, and its financial highlights from August 30, 2007 (commencement of operations) through the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Supplemental Data (Unaudited)

February 29, 2008
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution fees; and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual 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 August 30, 2007 through February 29, 2008.
Actual Expenses
The table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information below, 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 table under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
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 sales charges (loads). Therefore, 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.

  Class I     1,000.00       992.00       9.16       1.85 %
 
*   Expenses are equal to the average account value times the Fund’s annualized expense ratio multiplied by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half-year divided by the number of days in the fiscal year.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s 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 this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of 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 sales charges (loads). Therefore, 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.
