c.	The Pooled Income Fund for Employee Trusts (the "Pooled Income Fund") the primary investment objective of which is to provide a high degree of liquidity through the investment of short-term fixed income obligations with growth in the value of the units of participation in the Fund through reinvestment of the income from such obligations.

The Funds are operated under Section 9 of Regulation 9 of the Comptroller of Currency (12 C.F.R.9). The Trust Department of the Bank is responsible for the continuing supervision and evaluation of all investments for the Funds.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

During the year investors continued to look for signs that the economy would cool off to a more sustainable rate to contain inflation and keep the Federal Reserve on hold, after raising interest rates six times during the past year.

Interest rates and inflation, being boosted by higher oil prices, remains the key concerns of the market. Questions about corporate profits and growth rates are coming to the forefront. Companies that do not meet earnings and revenues expectations are severely punished in the marketplace.

Stocks suffered intense volatility in the Spring. After a spectacular rise in the NASDAQ Index for the first half of the year, the high tech dominated index reversed itself for the second half. For the year, the roller coaster ride investors took on NASDAQ, resulted in a positive return of 13.78%. The market is still questioning the future for tech stocks, as their price earnings ratios remain high by historic measures.

The old economy stocks also struggled during the second half of the year, as did telecommunication shares. Leading the way higher in the broad market were drug stocks, utilities and some consumer stocks.

The S&P 500 Index turned in a lackluster return of 6.09% for the year ended 10/31/00. One of the lowest returns in several years.

Small capitalization stocks fared somewhat better than large capitalization stocks, a trend not seen for several years. In a mirror image to the large cap market, early weakening was followed by later strength. The Russell 2000 Index of small capitalization stocks rose 17.41% for the year.

The global markets in general were less volatile than the U.S. markets. The higher interest rates in the U.S. kept the dollar strong and forced many central banks to raise rates to stabilize their currencies. Therefore, their equity markets suffered. There was particular concern about the rebound or lack thereof in the Japanese economy. The MCI EAFE Index was down -2.66% for the year.

It appeared that the Federal Reserve was finished raising rates after their May increases. Although short-term rates had risen during the year, the longer-term market was anticipating the Fed easing and the economy slowing as the year came to an end. The Lehman Brothers Government/Credit Intermediate Index was up 6.46% for the year.

The dampening effects taken by the Federal Reserve appear by some signs finally to be taking effect. Investors also seem to be more cautious, with a new administration in Washington, which should help reduce the speculation in the market. Is the stock market building a base for recovery or will we see a continuation of the volatility that we saw last year is still being questioned by investors.

POOLED FUND COMMENTARY

The three collective investment funds included in this report are for the use of "Qualified Retirement Trusts" such as yours. These three funds, the Pooled Equity Fund, Pooled Debt Fund and Pooled Income Fund, represent a pool of capital of about $350 million. Participating accounts benefit from this large concentration of capital by receiving constant investment attention, lower brokerage commissions on large trades, and broad diversification which reduces risk and enhances investment opportunities. Investment programs to meet the objectives of each individual trust can be designed by adjusting the ratio of participation in the various funds.

POOLED EQUITY FUND

During the year, new stock positions were taken in Texas Instruments,Altera Corp.,Emerson Electric, Nokia Corp,Amgen,Avaya,Computer Sciences Corp.,Dell Computer, Gateway Inc.,Genentech, Intel, Lucent Technologies, Microsoft, Oracle,PE Corp,Pepsico,Proctor & Gamble, Qwest Copmmunications, Rohm &Haas, and TargetCorp.

Penney, Phelps Dodge, Sensormatic Electronics, Stride Rite, Too Inc.,and Worthington Industries. The fund's total return (income plus price appreciation) for the quarter was 2.91%.

The Fund ended the period with cash reserves of 10.29%.

POOLED DEBT FUND

In keeping with our philosophy of maintaining a high-quality portfolio with limited maturity exposure, about 55.0% of the portfolio is held in U.S. Government and Agency issues. Approximately 69% of the portfolio will mature within five years. The weighted average life of the total portfolio is 3.6 yrs. The total return of the Fund was 1.68% for the quarter and 5.66% for the preceding 12 months. At period end, the current yield of the fund was approximately 6.17% . The weighted yield to maturity at market was 6.50%.

POOLED INCOME FUND

The Fund continues to be invested in short-term U.S. Government and Agency obligations, high-quality commercial paper and liquid guaranteed insurance contracts. The Fund's quarterly return of 1.64% is equivalent to an annualized total return of 6.72%. For the past 12 months, the fund returned 6.41%. The Fund has an average maturity of 17 days and a weighted yield to maturity of 6.62%.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE YEARS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2000

NOTE 1: NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

       The accounting policies followed by the Bank, as Trustee, are in accordance with the respective Trust Plans and Declarations of the Funds dated December 5, 1955 (as amended on October 10, 1963) and December 27, 1974, and in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The significant accounting policies and the nature of operations follow.

Nature of Operations

       The Fund for Pooling Equity Investments of Employee Trusts, the Fund for Pooling Debt Investments of Employee Trusts and the Pooled Income Fund for Employee Trusts (Funds) provide a means through which funds, held by UMB Bank, n.a. in its capacity as sole fiduciary or co-fiduciary, may be pooled for diversification of investments. The Funds are managed by UMB Bank, n.a. under regulation 9 of the Comptroller of the Currency relating to collective investment funds. Regulation 9 specifies generally the form of trust, accounting policies, investment powers, asset valuation, etc. In addition, the Funds' units are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the 1933 Act.

Use of Estimates

       The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investments

       Securities traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the last reported sales price on the last business day of the year or, if no sale was reported on that date, at the average of the last reported bid and asked prices. Securities traded over-the-counter are valued at the average of the last reported bid and asked prices. Short-term obligations are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities not priced elsewhere are priced by the Trustee, utilizing prices quoted by security brokers or dealers or investment bankers. Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Interest income is recorded daily. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions and unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments are reported on the identified cost basis.

Amortization

       Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are amortized over the life of the respective securities.

Income Tax Exemption

       Applicable statutes exempt the funds from U.S. federal and state income taxes.

Participation Units

       There is no par or stated value for participation units. Trusts, for which the Bank is a fiduciary, may invest or withdraw based on daily valuations. Prior to March 15, 2000, trusts invested or withdrew based on monthly valuations as of the prior month.

Stock Split

       The Board of the Funds approved a ten for one unit split with an ex-date and effective date of February 18, 2000. All unit and per unit amounts presented in these financial statements have been restated to give effect to the unit split retroactively.

NOTE 2: FUTURE CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

       The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") has issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities ("SFAS 133"). This statement, as amended by SFAS No. 137, requires all derivatives to be recorded on the balance sheet date at fair value and establishes standard accounting methodologies for hedging activities. The standard will result in the recognition of offsetting changes in value or cash flows of both the hedge and the hedged item in net investment income in the same period. The statement is effective for the Fund's fiscal year ending October 31, 2001. Because the Funds do not normally hold derivative instruments, the adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements.
