LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
We are pleased to present the enclosed annual report for Regions Morgan Keegan Select Mid Cap Growth Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Growth Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Core Equity Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Mid Cap Value Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Value Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Balanced Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Fixed Income Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Limited Maturity Fixed Income Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Intermediate Tax Exempt Bond Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Treasury Money Market Fund and Regions Morgan Keegan Select Money Market Fund (each a “Fund” and, collectively, the “Funds”). In this report, you will find information on each Fund’s investment objective and strategy and learn how your investment performed during the fiscal year ended November 30, 2008. The portfolio managers will also provide an overview of the market conditions and discuss some of the factors that affected investment performance during the reporting period. In addition, this report includes each Fund’s audited financial statements and portfolio of investments as of November 30, 2008.
As I write, the markets continue to operate under substantial stresses. Although, the worst appears to have passed, the current situation is far from normal. World economic worries compound our own domestic economic issues. Market places for stocks, bonds and other financial instruments continue to operate, but only marginally. Investors and lenders continue to be skeptical and unwilling to venture far from “home”. World governments are loosening credit and supporting institutions in an effort to avoid further declines. As managers of your Funds, our duty is to appraise the economic and market environment and do our best to select prudent and valuable investments. We continue in the belief that capitalism is still an outstanding economic system; that economic downturns are followed by recoveries; and that severely shaken financial markets will once again find their footings and operate normally. With these thoughts, we strive to provide you with worthwhile results.
As always, we appreciate your continued support of the Regions Morgan Keegan Select family of funds. It is important to stay focused on your long-term investment strategy. Your financial adviser can help you evaluate your portfolio’s performance to ensure that your diversified mix of investments is designed to help generate the long-term performance your goals demand. We remain committed to helping you pursue your financial goals through investments in our fund family. You have our commitment to bring you the highest level of disciplined decision-making and personal service to meet your financial needs. If you have any questions about the Funds, please call us toll-free at 877-757-7424.
Sincerely,

ABOUT SHAREHOLDERAND FUND EXPENSES (UNAUDITED)
All mutual funds have operating expenses and it is important for our shareholders to understand the impact of expenses on their investments. As a shareholder of a Fund, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and on redemptions; and (2) operating costs, including management fees; to the extent applicable, distribution (12b-1) fees and/or shareholder services fees; and other Fund expenses. Operating costs, which are deducted from a Fund’s gross income, reduce the investment return of the Fund.
A Fund’s operating expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets, which is known as the expense ratio. The following example is intended to help you to understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period and held for the entire six-month period beginning June 1, 2008 and ending November 30, 2008.
The following table illustrates your Fund’s costs in two ways:
Based on actual fund return. This section helps you estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The “Ending Account Value” shown is derived from the Fund’s actual return, and the fourth column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the Fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you incurred 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 given for your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period.”
Based on hypothetical 5% return. This section is intended to help you compare your Fund’s cost with those of other mutual funds. The table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual 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 during the period. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on the 5% return. You can assess your Fund’s costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any sales charges (loads) on purchases or on redemptions which may be incurred by some of the Fund’s share classes. Therefore, the hypothetical account values and expenses in the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different Funds. In addition, if these sales charges (loads) were included, your overall costs would have been higher.
You can find more information about a Fund’s expenses, including annual expense ratios for the past five years, in the Financial Highlights section of this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to the Funds’ prospectus.

REGIONS MORGAN KEEGAN SELECT MID CAP GROWTH FUND
OBJECTIVE & STRATEGY
Regions Morgan Keegan Select Mid Cap Growth Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation. The Fund invests primarily in equity securities of mid-capitalization companies (i.e., companies whose market capitalization falls within the range tracked by the Russell Mid Cap Growth Index at the time of purchase).
INVESTMENT RISKS: Equity securities (stocks) can be more volatile and carry more risk than other forms of investments, including investments in high-grade fixed income securities. Mid-capitalization and growth stocks typically carry additional risk, since smaller companies generally have higher risk of failure and growth stocks generally have been more susceptible to market, economic and individual company developments and, in each case historically, these stocks have experienced a greater degree of volatility. The net asset value per share of the Fund will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio changes.
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSIONOF FUND PERFORMANCE
What started out as a modest gain during the first half of the Fund’s fiscal year turned into an absolute rout in the second half of the fiscal year ended November 30, 2008. In our years of investment management experience, we have never seen stocks cascade down in price as they have over the last few months. The last few months will certainly be remembered well into the future.
For the fiscal year ended November 30, 2008, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Mid Cap Growth Fund’s Class A Shares had a total return of –41.79%, based on net asset value. The Russell Mid Cap Growth Index(1), the Fund’s benchmark, had a total return of –46.15% and the Lipper Mid Cap Growth Index(2) showed an average return of –45.29% during the same period. While the numbers were certainly not what we had envisioned at the beginning of the year, the Fund was able to outperform its index and peer group.
In what started as a long row of dominos falling over, the year began with poor performance from high-yield/structured debt funds, then on to bank stocks collapsing, a frozen financial system, and now potential major industrial problems (e.g., GM, Ford and Chrysler). We all are looking for what’s next, but perhaps all the dominos (or enough of them) have fallen over. The stock market has certainly declined enough to discount any (or most) unforeseen events.
While there were no sectors that provided positive returns, the Energy, Industrial and Consumer Discretionary sectors declined less than the market. Information Technology, Materials, and Financials were the weaker performing sectors. Individual stocks that added to performance were: Dollar Tree Stores, +47%; Southwestern Energy, +38%; Church & Dwight, +6%; and Ross Stores, +1%. While we try to avoid large price declines in stocks we hold, it was almost impossible to avoid large percentage losses in the Fund due to the overall decline of the market. The weaker performing holdings in the Fund were: Sirius XM Radio, –95%; Boyd Gaming, –88%; Health Net, –81%; CB Richard Ellis –81%; and Coventry Health, –78%.
There are any number of variables that could happen to the economy, but positive actions by the Federal Reserve and Treasury Department should lessen the economic pain and lead to eventual recovery of the economy. Unfortunately, there are no guarantees as it’s been over seventy years since the economy has suffered such financial shocks as we have over the last year.

Historical total return information for any period or portion thereof prior to the commencement of investment operations of Class A Shares on May 20, 1998 is that of Class B Shares and reflects all charges, expenses and fees incurred by Class B Shares, which were generally higher than the expenses of Class A Shares, during such periods. |

REGIONS MORGAN KEEGAN SELECT GROWTH FUND
OBJECTIVE & STRATEGY
Regions Morgan Keegan Select Growth Fund seeks growth of capital and income. The Fund invests in common stocks of companies that are expected to achieve above-average growth in earnings.
INVESTMENT RISKS: Equity securities (stocks) can be more volatile and carry more risk than other forms of investments, including investments in high-grade fixed income securities. Growth style stocks are considered to be more susceptible to developments affecting the market/economy and the individual company than common stocks in general. The net asset value per share of the Fund will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio changes.
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSIONOF FUND PERFORMANCE
For the fiscal year ended November 30, 2008, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Growth Fund’s Class A Shares had a total return of –35.65%, based on net asset value. During the same period, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index(1), the Fund’s benchmark, had a total return of –38.09% and the Lipper Large Cap Growth Index(2) had a total return of –42.88%. The miserable performance of the equity markets reflected a convergence of declining housing prices, an institutional credit crisis, skyrocketing unemployment, plunging consumer confidence (and spending), and massive government intervention. While we are not pleased with the Fund’s performance, we did avoid many major disasters in the financial sector. Also, we were underweighted in the “high expectations” stocks with high valuations that performed poorly during the year.
Only three stocks held in the Fund showed a positive return. They were Southwest Energy (+38%), Wal-Mart (+19%) and Genentech (+0.4%). The list of stocks that showed poor performance for the year is extensive, but some of the worst include Coventry Health (–78%), NYSE Euronext (–72%) and Research in Motion (–63%).
The last few months left no place for investors to hide. Only three economic sectors in the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index showed a better performance than –38% for the twelve months ended November 30, 2008. They were Consumer Staples (–13%), Energy (–26%) and Health Care (–27%). We continue to hold a slight overweight in the Energy and Material sectors as compared to the Fund’s benchmark index.

REGIONS MORGAN KEEGAN SELECT CORE EQUITY FUND
OBJECTIVE & STRATEGY
Regions Morgan Keegan Select Core Equity Fund seeks long-term growth of capital, current income and growth of income. The Fund typically invests in a combination of growth stocks and value stocks. By investing in a blend of stocks that demonstrate strong long-term earnings potential and undervalued stocks, the Fund seeks to achieve strong returns with less volatility.
INVESTMENT RISKS: Equity securities (stocks) can be more volatile and carry more risk than other forms of investments, including investments in high-grade fixed income securities. Growth style stocks are considered to be more susceptible to developments affecting the market/economy and the individual company than common stocks in general. Value-based investments are subject to the risk that the broad market may not recognize their intrinsic value. The net asset value per share of the Fund will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio changes.
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSIONOF FUND PERFORMANCE
In the past year, we have witnessed events not seen since and reminiscent of the 1930s: the dramatic slowing economic growth; the freeze-up of the financial system; and the decline in the stock market. However, unlike the 1930s, the significant fiscal and monetary responses, although slow in coming, are unprecedented.
The stresses in the financial markets and the economy are evidenced in the negative reaction of stocks such as the decline seen in the Fund’s benchmark, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index(1), which fell 38.09 percent for the twelve months ended November 30, 2008. Regions Morgan Keegan Select Core Equity Fund’s Class A Shares performed in line with the Fund’s benchmark with a decline of 39.36 percent, based on net asset value (1.26 percent underperformance). The Lipper Large-Cap Core Funds Index(2) fell 38.52 percent during the same period.
All sectors in the benchmark index produced negative returns. For the Fund, the best performing sector was the Financial sector because of selection. Energy was the poorest performing sector for the Fund because of underweight and selection. Much of the outperformance resulted from not owning such stocks as Lehman Brothers, Merrill Lynch, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Washington Mutual. In the Energy sector, holdings of Smith International, National Oilwell Varco and Bank of America negatively affected performance. In the Healthcare sector, holdings of Gilead Sciences, Express Scripts, and Medco Health were additive to performance.
It is with trepidation that we look to 2009. Uncertainty exists concerning the recovery of the domestic economy, and fears abound that the global economy will continue to slow. Increased unemployment and a cautious consumer are strong headwinds for any improvement in economic growth here in the U.S.; and, as the U.S. slows, so does the rest of the world.
As things now stand, serious damage has been done to home prices, bond prices, and stock prices. Cash and U.S. Treasury securities seem to be the safe havens of choice. As of this writing, 90-day Treasury bills yield zero percent. The ten-year Treasury yields slightly more than two percent.
As a result of the dismal outlook and price depreciation, attractive valuations unseen for over fifty years have appeared in the stock market. For example, the dividend yield on the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index is now 3.30 percent. Compared to the Treasury yields cited previously, the yield is quite attractive and we have not seen such a spread since the 1950s.
Although the outlook for earnings is dismal, even at reduced levels, the earnings yield on stocks is significantly higher than aforementioned Treasury yields. Thus, at some point normal relative valuations could return. Money would move out of the safety of Treasury securities, and into other bonds and stocks. Cash on the sidelines has grown significantly. When money comes out of Treasury bills and cash, stocks have the potential to dramatically outperform other asset classes.

INDEX DESCRIPTIONS
(1) | | The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index is an unmanaged capitalization-weighted index of 500 stocks designed to measure performance of the broad domestic economy through changes in the aggregated market value of 500 stocks representing all major industries. The index is unmanaged and, unlike the Fund, is not affected by cash flows or trading and other expenses. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. |
(2) | | The Lipper Large-Cap Core Funds Index consists of managed mutual funds that, by portfolio practice, invest at least 75% of their equity assets in companies with market capitalizations (on a three-year weighted basis) greater than 300% of the dollar-weighted median market capitalization of the middle 1,000 securities of the Standard & Poor’s SuperComposite 1500 Index. Large-cap core funds have more latitude in the companies in which they invest. These funds typically have an average price-to-earnings ratio, price-to-book ratio and three-year sales-per-share growth value compared to the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index. The index is unmanaged and, unlike the Fund, is not affected by cash flows or trading and other expenses. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. |

REGIONS MORGAN KEEGAN SELECT MID CAP VALUE FUND
OBJECTIVE & STRATEGY
Regions Morgan Keegan Select Mid Cap Value Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation. The Fund invests its assets primarily in equity securities of companies with mid-capitalizations (i.e., companies whose market capitalization falls within the range tracked by the Russell Mid Cap Value Index at the time of purchase) that are judged by the Fund’s adviser to be undervalued.
INVESTMENT RISKS: Equity securities (stocks) can be more volatile and carry more risk than other forms of investments, including investments in high-grade fixed income securities. Mid-capitalization stocks typically carry additional risk, since smaller companies generally have higher risk of failure and, historically, their stocks have experienced a greater degree of volatility. Value-based investments are subject to the risk that the broad market may not recognize their intrinsic value. The net asset value per share of the Fund will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio changes.
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSIONOF FUND PERFORMANCE
For the fiscal year ended November 30, 2008, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Mid Cap Value Fund’s Class A Shares had a total return of –37.35%, based on net asset value. This compares to the Russell Midcap Value Index(1) total return of –41.95% during the same period. Fund performance was impacted by underperforming stocks within the Energy, Consumer Discretionary, and Healthcare sectors, as well as high volatility and severely negative returns across the board in the U.S. and global stock markets. The financial meltdown which intensified in the second half of 2008 has created unprecedented failures and mergers of major U.S. financial institutions and a level of U.S. government, regulatory, and Federal Reserve involvement not seen since the 1930’s. A protracted recovery and continued market volatility are more likely than not for the foreseeable future as the world economy recalibrates to slower consumer and industrial activity, changes in credit availability, and the ongoing U.S. housing malaise.
From a sector perspective, the Fund’s holdings in the Materials, Industrials, and Information Technology sectors were some of the key positive contributors to overall performance relative to the benchmark. With respect to specific stocks, the Fund benefited from strong contributions by Compass Minerals International, Inc., Flowserve Corp., Peoples United Financial, and Pactiv Corporation. Fund holdings that most adversely impacted performance were found primarily in the Energy and Consumer Discretionary sectors. With respect to specific stocks, Fund performance was adversely impacted by Affiliated Managers Group, Exterran Holdings Inc., Hanesbrands Inc., and Corinthian Colleges, Inc.
With respect to the outlook for 2009, we believe that the challenges of the ongoing global financial crisis will likely impact the markets for some time. On a positive note, stock market valuations have generally become much more attractive than they have been for a long time. However, the restoration of integrity and confidence in the capital markets is an essential ingredient for improved market returns. The massive and unprecedented coordinated activities of Federal Reserve and the U.S. Treasury in October and November of 2008 appear to be having some positive impact on credit markets; however, credit spreads remained wide and unstable at year end 2008. On one hand, the credit market for residential mortgages has shown some signs of stabilizing, but many investors have shifted their focus to the consumer credit and commercial mortgage sectors of the market. The recession started in December 2007, and is expected to continue well into 2009. As a result, we feel that it may take an extended period of time, likely measured in months or quarters, before full confidence and strong economic growth reappear. There will likely continue to be market volatility as many investors continue to reassess the credit crisis and the depressed economy.
Nevertheless, we concur with Warren Buffett’s widely publicized quote from October 2008—“if you wait for the robins, the spring will be over.” In our view, U.S. stocks, including mid-cap stocks, are generally trading at attractive levels for long-term investment, though the timing of the recovery is unpredictable. Based on a traditional rule of thumb, market–recovery medicine (in the form of interest rate cuts and fiscal stimulus) takes 9-12 months to begin to take hold with the stock market serving as a leading indicator of the recovery. This suggests an economic recovery by late 2009 and a stock market recovery in advance of that. Perhaps the timetable for a classic recovery may be challenged by the severity and nature of market concerns, but we believe that this historical perspective will ultimately serve investors well.

Despite the painful losses that so many investors have experienced this year, we believe that a focus on high quality business franchises and valuations will provide attractive opportunities amongst the rubble for long-term investors. In general, the Fund’s portfolio companies possess strong business and attractive cash flow characteristics, and in our opinion, are likely to weather the impact of a recessionary economy and volatile markets well. Also, we are looking at more potential new investment opportunities with similar characteristics being presented these days than in many years. As such, we are cautiously optimistic about the potential for better markets and returns in 2009 and beyond.

REGIONS MORGAN KEEGAN SELECT VALUE FUND
OBJECTIVE & STRATEGY
Regions Morgan Keegan Select Value Fund seeks income and growth of capital. The Fund invests in common and preferred stocks according to a sector-weighting strategy in which attractive market valuation levels are assigned priority over prospects for future earnings growth.
INVESTMENT RISKS: Equity securities (stocks) can be more volatile and carry more risk than other forms of investments, including investments in high-grade fixed income securities. Value-based investments are subject to the risk that the broad market may not recognize their intrinsic value. The net asset value per share of the Fund will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio changes.
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSIONOF FUND PERFORMANCE
In the past year, we have witnessed events not seen since and reminiscent of the 1930s: the dramatic slowing economic growth; the freeze-up of the financial system; and the decline in the stock market. However, unlike the 1930s, the significant fiscal and monetary responses, although slow in coming, are unprecedented.
The stresses in the financial markets and the economy are evidenced in the negative reaction of stocks such as the decline seen in the Fund’s benchmark, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Citigroup Value Index(1), which fell 40.75 percent for the twelve months ended November 30, 2008. Regions Morgan Keegan Select Value Fund’s Class A Shares performed in line with the Fund’s benchmark with a decline of 39.17 percent, based on net asset value (1.58 percent outperformance).
All sectors in the benchmark index produced negative returns. For the Fund, the best performing sector was the Financial sector because of an underweight, particularly early in the year. The Utility sector was the poorest performing sector for the Fund because of an underweight position.
Much of the outperformance resulted from not owning such stocks as Lehman Brothers, Merrill Lynch, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Washington Mutual. The holdings of McDonalds, General Mills, and Monsanto were additive to performance. In the Utility sector, holdings of Entergy, Exelon, and First Energy negatively affected performance.
It is with trepidation that we look to 2009. Uncertainty exists concerning the recovery of the domestic economy, and fears abound that the global economy will continue to slow. Increased unemployment and a cautious consumer are strong headwinds for any improvement in economic growth here in the U.S.; and, as the U.S. slows, so does the rest of the world.
As things now stand, serious damage has been done to home prices, bond prices, and stock prices. Cash and U.S. Treasury securities seem to be the safe havens of choice. As of this writing, 90-day Treasury bills yield zero percent. The ten-year Treasury yields slightly more than two percent.
As a result of the dismal outlook and price depreciation, attractive valuations unseen for over fifty years have appeared in the stock market. For example, the dividend yield on the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index is now 3.30 percent. Compared to the Treasury yields cited previously, the yield is quite attractive and we have not seen such a spread since the 1950s.
Although the outlook for earnings is dismal, even at reduced levels, the earnings yield on stocks is significantly higher than aforementioned Treasury yields. Thus, at some point normal relative valuations could return. Money would move out of the safety of Treasury securities, and into other bonds and stocks. Cash on the sidelines has grown significantly. When money comes out of Treasury bills and cash, stocks have the potential to dramatically outperform other asset classes.

In the meantime, building or adding to a portfolio of quality stocks presents an attractive, forward-looking strategy. The Fund provides a portfolio of domestic stocks that should participate in the ultimate stock market recovery.

REGIONS MORGAN KEEGAN SELECT BALANCED FUND
OBJECTIVE & STRATEGY
Regions Morgan Keegan Select Balanced Fund seeks total return through capital appreciation, dividends and interest. The Fund invests primarily in common and preferred stocks, convertible securities, and fixed-income securities.
INVESTMENT RISKS: Stocks can be more volatile and carry more risk and return potential than other forms of investments. Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate, providing the potential for principal gain or loss. Cash equivalents offer low risk and low return potential. The net asset value per share of the Fund will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio changes.
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSIONOF FUND PERFORMANCE
For the fiscal year ended November 30, 2008, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Balanced Fund’s Class A Shares had a total return of –20.78%, based on net asset value. The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index(1) and the Barclays Capital (formerly, Lehman Brothers) Government/Credit Total Index(2) had total returns of –38.09% and 1.32%, respectively, during the same period. A market-index return comprised of 60% Standard & Poor’s 500 Index and 40% Merrill Lynch 1-10 Year Government/Corporate A Rated and Above Index(3) was –22.32%. The peer group, as represented by the Lipper Balanced Index( 4), showed a return of –28.91%. While we were not pleased with the absolute return of the Fund, the relative outperformance as compared to the blended index (141 basis points) and the peer group (813 basis points) helps ease some of the pain.
What began as a modest return at midyear turned into a financial horror movie by year-end. Concerns of bank failures, a frozen credit market, weak consumer spending and plunging consumer confidence led to a market decline for the ages, or the worst stock market return since 1931. What strikes this 35-year investment veteran is how many financial and economic comparisons to the 1930’s were made over the last few months.
The Fund performed well relative to the indices and our peer group probably due to two reasons: the Fund had no major exposure to any poorly performing assets, and we did not rebalance the Fund from bonds to stocks as the market declined. The Fund was underweighted in Financials during the year, and the bond portion of the Fund held no bonds of the bankrupt financial institutions. An over-weighted position in U.S. Treasury securities helped as the rush to quality assets pushed their prices higher offsetting some of the stock declines.
As mentioned above, we did not rebalance the Fund during the second half of the year. Rebalancing is the process of selling the outperforming asset class and reinvesting in the underperforming asset class. This kept the Fund from always buying into stocks as they were steadily declining.

INDEX DESCRIPTIONS
(1) | | The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index is an unmanaged capitalization-weighted index of 500 stocks designed to measure performance of the broad domestic economy through changes in the aggregated market value of 500 stocks representing all major industries. The index is unmanaged and, unlike the Fund, is not affected by cash flows or trading and other expenses. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. |
(2) | | The Barclays Capital (formerly Lehman Brothers) Government/Credit Total Index is comprised of approximately 5,000 issues which include: non-convertible bonds publicly issued by the U.S. government or its agencies; corporate bonds guaranteed by the U.S. government and quasi-federal corporations; and publicly issued, fixed rate, non-convertible domestic bonds of companies in industry, public utilities and finance. The index is unmanaged and, unlike the Fund, is not affected by cash flows or trading and other expenses. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. |
(3) | | The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index/Merrill Lynch 1-10 Year Government/Corporate A Rated and Above Index is a 60%/40% weight between the two indexes. It is sometimes used as a standard market mix to measure a balanced fund’s performance against market indexes. The Fund’s asset allocation allowed by the prospectus is between 75% equity securities and 25% fixed income securities to 25% equity securities and 75% fixed income securities. The Merrill Lynch 1-10 Year Government/Corporate A Rated and Above Index is comprised of publicly placed, non-convertible, coupon-bearing domestic debt with maturities between 1 and 9.99 years, rated “A” or better. The index is unmanaged and, unlike the Fund, is not affected by cash flows or trading and other expenses. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. |

REGIONS MORGAN KEEGAN SELECT FIXED INCOME FUND
OBJECTIVE & STRATEGY
Regions Morgan Keegan Select Fixed Income Fund seeks current income with capital appreciation as a secondary objective. The Fund invests a majority of its total assets in investment-grade debt securities, including debt securities of the U.S. Treasury and government agencies, mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities, and corporate bonds. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in below investment grade debt securities. The debt securities purchased by the Fund will be rated, at the time of investment, at least CCC (or a comparable rating) by at least one nationally recognized statistical rating organization or, if unrated, determined by the Fund’s adviser to be of comparable quality.
INVESTMENT RISKS: Investors in any bond fund should anticipate fluctuations in price. Bond prices and the value of bond funds decline as interest rates rise. Bonds with longer-term maturities generally are more vulnerable to interest rate risk than bonds with shorter-term maturities. Below investment grade debt securities are considered speculative with respect to an issuer’s capacity to pay interest and repay principal and are susceptible to default or decline in market value due to adverse economic and business developments. An economic downturn or period of rising interest rates could adversely affect the ability of issuers, especially issuers of below investment grade debt, to service primary obligations and an unanticipated default could cause the Fund to experience a reduction in value of its shares. The net asset value per share of the Fund will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio changes.
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSIONOF FUND PERFORMANCE
The sluggish economic growth that characterized the first half of the Fund’s fiscal year gave way to a full blown recession as 2008 drew to a close. Declining home prices, delinquencies and foreclosures forced banks to tighten credit standards and slow lending. Faced with declining home prices, falling equity prices, rising unemployment and slowing global growth, consumer confidence dropped sharply. The result has been a decline in consumer spending that has spread to businesses as they cut jobs and reduce capital spending plans. On almost all fronts, incoming data suggest the recession will be deeper and longer than many thought a few months ago. After growing over 3.0% during the first half of the year, GDP declined 0.5% in the third quarter with a sharper decline expected in the last quarter.
After a modest total return of 0.25% during the first half of the year, the Regions Morgan Keegan Select Fixed Income Fund’s Class A Shares total return was –5.66% for the six months ended November 30, 2008. The result was a total return for the year of –5.42%. This compares with the Fund’s benchmark return of 3.04% for the Merrill Lynch U.S. Corporate/Government/Mortgage Index(1). The underperformance of the Fund relative to the index was the result two factors. First, investor flight to quality has favored U.S. Treasury securities, a sector which we have underweighted. Second, the Fund retains a small position in non-agency mortgage securities. Despite the still solid credit characteristics of these mortgage bonds, most are rated AAA, prices have been adversely affected by a decline in mortgage market fundamentals and insufficient market liquidity.
Looking into the coming year, we expect the economic environment to remain challenging as the housing market seeks to stabilize and rising unemployment further dampens consumer demand. While this recession looks to be deeper and perhaps longer than other post-war downturns, we feel the economy will rebound in the second half of 2009. The Administration, Congress, and the Federal Reserve have been very aggressive with a combination of monetary and fiscal policy stimulus. While some of this stimulus has already been felt, much has yet to work its way through the economy. Additional policy actions by the Federal Reserve and the Obama Administration to stoke the economic engine are expected over the next several months. We believe the Fund is currently positioned to benefit in the coming year. The Fund remains underweight in the Treasury sector. The Fund is overweight high quality corporate and U.S. agency mortgages, the areas we expect to lead performance in 2009.

LIMITED MATURITY FIXED INCOME FUND
OBJECTIVE & STRATEGY
Regions Morgan Keegan Select Limited Maturity Fixed Income Fund seeks current income. The Fund invests a majority of its total assets in investment-grade debt securities, including debt securities of the U.S. Treasury and government agencies, mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities, and corporate bonds. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in below investment grade debt securities. The debt securities purchased by the Fund will be rated, at the time of investment, at least CCC (or a comparable rating) by at least one nationally recognized statistical rating organization or, if unrated, determined by the Fund’s adviser to be of comparable quality.
INVESTMENT RISKS: Investors in any bond fund should anticipate fluctuations in price. Bond prices and the value of bond funds decline as interest rates rise. Bonds with longer-term maturities generally are more vulnerable to interest rate risk than bonds with shorter-term maturities. Below investment grade debt securities are considered speculative with respect to an issuer’s capacity to pay interest and repay principal and are susceptible to default or decline in market value due to adverse economic and business developments. An economic downturn or period of rising interest rates could adversely affect the ability of issuers, especially issuers of below investment grade debt, to service primary obligations and an unanticipated default could cause the Fund to experience a reduction in value of its shares. The net asset value per share of the Fund will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio changes.
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSIONOF FUND PERFORMANCE
For the fiscal year ended November 30, 2008, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Limited Maturity Fixed Income Fund’s Class A Shares had a total return of –7.01%, based on net asset value. During the same period, the Merrill Lynch 1-3 Year Government/Corporate A Rated and Above Index(1) had a total return of 4.30%.
The market events and the deteriorating economic data throughout 2008 created turmoil in the financial markets. As a result, investor confidence fell to extremely low levels. Investors continued to choose U.S. Treasury securities over other sectors in the fixed income market. Thus, U.S. Treasuries outperformed other sectors, such as non-agency mortgages and corporate bonds. Credit characteristics of many investment grade securities became secondary, as prices suffered from a decline in overall market fundamentals and little market liquidity.
We expect that economic conditions will struggle to improve over the next year, as the credit markets seek liquidity and rising unemployment weakens consumer demand. The fiscal and monetary policies that have been passed should serve as a stimulus to the economy as these policies are implemented. Going forward, we believe the Fund is properly structured heading into the coming year, as it is underweight the Treasury sector and has a duration short to that of its benchmark. Furthermore, the Fund is overweight the Corporate sector and has a AAA average quality rating.

Market forecasts provided in this report may not necessarily come to pass. There is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objectives. These views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions, and Morgan Asset Management, Inc. disclaims any responsibility to update such views. The Fund is subject to market risk, which is the possibility that the market values of securities owned by the Fund will decline and, therefore, the value of the Fund’s shares may be less than what you paid for them. Accordingly, you can lose money investing in the Fund.

(1) | | Effective April 1, 2008, the Fund’s adviser voluntarily agreed to waive fees and reimburse expenses to the extent that the Fund’s total annual operating expenses (excluding brokerage, interest, taxes, and extraordinary expenses) exceed 1.00%, 1.75% and 0.75% of net assets of Class A Shares, Class C Shares and Class I Shares, respectively, on an annualized basis for the period that the voluntary waiver is in effect. The Fund’s adviser will evaluate the continuance of this voluntary waiver at each month-end and it can terminate this voluntary waiver at any time. If not for this waiver, performance would have been lower. |
(2) | | Effective June 4, 2004, all Class B Shares of the Fund converted to Class A Shares. Historical total return information for any period or portion thereof prior to the commencement of investment operations of Class A Shares on May 20, 1998 is that of Class B Shares and reflects all charges, expenses and fees incurred by Class B Shares, which were generally higher than the expenses of Class A Shares, during such periods. |

Total returns for the index shown are not adjusted to reflect taxes, sales charges, expenses or other fees that the SEC requires to be reflected in the Fund’s performance. The index is unmanaged, and unlike the Fund, is not affected by cash flows or trading and other expenses. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. |
(4) | | The Fund’s Class A Shares (including predecessor Class B Shares), Class C Shares and Class I Shares commenced investment operations on December 12, 1993, December 14, 2001 and September 1, 2005, respectively. |
Performance data quoted represents past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.

The Fund’s performance results are shown on a total return basis and include the reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions in the Fund. Returns shown in the chart and table above do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. Mutual funds are not bank deposits or obligations, are not guaranteed by any bank and are not insured or guaranteed by the U.S. government, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board or any other government agency. Investment in mutual funds involves investment risk, including possible loss of principal.

INTERMEDIATE TAX EXEMPT BOND FUND
OBJECTIVE & STRATEGY
Regions Morgan Keegan Select Intermediate Tax Exempt Bond Fund seeks current income that is exempt from federal income tax. The Fund invests its assets primarily in a highly diversified portfolio of tax-exempt bonds.
INVESTMENT RISKS: Investors in any bond fund should anticipate fluctuations in price. Bond prices and the value of bond funds decline as interest rates rise. Bonds with longer-term maturities generally are more vulnerable to interest rate risk than bonds with shorter-term maturities. A portion of the Fund’s income may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax and/or certain state and local taxes. The net asset value per share of the Fund will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio changes.
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSIONOF FUND PERFORMANCE
For the fiscal year ended November 30, 2008, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Intermediate Tax Exempt Bond Fund’s Class A Shares had a total return of 2.40%, based on net asset value. The Merrill Lynch 3-7 Year Municipal Index, the Fund’s benchmark, had a total return of 4.51% during the same period.
At the beginning of the fiscal year, yields on investment grade tax-exempt bonds were at multi-year lows, and the Fund was positioned defensively with a relatively short maturity structure and relatively high credit quality profile.
Soon after the start of 2008 severe disruptions began to occur in the municipal market, mainly as a result of the fallout from mortgage market problems. Bond insurers were downgraded by the credit rating agencies because of the insurers’ exposure to subprime mortgage-backed securities. The municipal market had long relied on AAA-rated insurance to facilitate valuation of diverse credits. The very functioning of short-term tax-exempt credit markets depended on having AAA-rated insurance available. While the Fund did not hold any securities whose underlying credit quality was in question, the market dysfunction affected security valuation and trading across most market sectors. As the yield curve steepened in the first half of the fiscal year, with shorter term securities increasing in value and longer term ones declining, the Fund benefited from holding shorter bonds.
In the second half of the fiscal year the volatility of tax-exempt yields increased as economic and financial market problems increased. Liquidity in the tax-exempt market was very poor during this period. Despite the volatility the net change in municipal yields was a small increase from about 7 years to 30 years and little change in the shorter maturities. The Fund had a small positive return for the period as interest earned exceeded the slight decline in market value.
The Fund is once again defensively positioned for a difficult market. Both maturity structure and duration are shorter than those of the benchmark.

TREASURY MONEY MARKET FUND
OBJECTIVE & STRATEGY
Regions Morgan Keegan Select Treasury Money Market Fund seeks current income consistent with stability of principal and liquidity. The Fund invests primarily in U.S. Treasury obligations maturing in 397 days or less and in repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Treasury obligations.
INVESTMENT RISKS: An investment in the Fund is neither guaranteed nor insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSIONOF FUND PERFORMANCE
For the fiscal year ended November 30, 2008, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Treasury Money Market Fund’s Class A Shares had a total return 1.35%, based on net asset value. During this time period, the Federal Reserve Board cut the Federal Funds Rate from 4.50% to 1.00%, as economic growth concerns overshadowed inflationary risks.
The market events this year have been nothing short of astonishing, and as a result, investor confidence remains extremely low. Demand for liquid, government guaranteed securities has driven U.S. Treasury yields to historically low levels. The three-month U.S. Treasury bill began the fiscal year at 3.14%, yet ended at 0.04%, which is a decline of 310 basis points, or 3.10%.
The Fund maintains a 60-day or less weighted average life in order to qualify for its AAA rating from Standard & Poor’s. A positively sloped yield curve and a decline in interest rates mean longer dated securities have yielded a higher return than shorter-dated securities. Therefore, the Fund purchased longer-dated U.S. Treasury securities when possible.
Our current strategy is to take advantage of any short-term fluctuations in interest rates, as well as exploiting any yield disparities between U.S. Treasury Bills and money market eligible U.S. Treasury Notes. Due to the slightly positive slope of the yield curve, the low interest rate environment, and the Federal Reserve Board’s monetary outlook, we will maintain a weighted average life of the Fund near 50 days as liquidity considerations and trading conditions permit.

(1) | | In light of recent extraordinary market events, effective November 20, 2008, the Fund’s adviser has voluntarily agreed to waive fees and reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to prevent a negative yield for each class of shares of the Fund. This undertaking is voluntary and may be modified or discontinued by the Fund’s adviser at any time. |

(3) | | Effective June 4, 2004, all Class B Shares of the Fund converted to Class A Shares. Historical total return information for any period or portion thereof prior to the commencement of investment operations of Class A Shares on May 20, 1998 is that of Class B Shares and reflects all charges, expenses and fees incurred by Class B Shares, which were generally higher than the expenses of Class A Shares, during such periods. |
(4) | | The Fund’s Class A Shares and Class I Shares commenced investment operations on April 14, 1992 and April 3, 2006, respectively. |
Performance data quoted represents past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.

The Fund’s performance results are shown on a total return basis and include the reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions in the Fund. Returns shown in the chart and table above do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. Although the money market funds seek to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in these funds. Mutual funds are not bank deposits or obligations, are not guaranteed by any bank and are not insured or guaranteed by the U.S. government, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board or any other government agency.

OBJECTIVE & STRATEGY
Regions Morgan Keegan Select Money Market Fund seeks maximum current income consistent with preservation of capital and liquidity. The Fund invests in high quality, short-term money market instruments with remaining maturities of 397 days or less.
INVESTMENT RISKS: An investment in the Fund is neither guaranteed nor insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSIONOF FUND PERFORMANCE
For the fiscal year ended November 30, 2008, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Money Market Fund’s Class A Shares had a total return of 2.26%, based on net asset value. During this time period, the Federal Reserve Board cut the Federal Funds Rate from 4.50% to 1.00%, as economic growth concerns overshadowed inflationary risks.
Unprecedented market events, such as the failure of some major financial institutions and U.S. government intervention, along with deteriorating economic conditions have caused investors to seek principal preservation over investment returns. This flight to quality has driven U.S. Treasury yields to historically low levels. The three-month U.S. Treasury bill began the fiscal year at 3.14%, yet ended at 0.04%, which is a decline of 310 basis points, or 3.10%.
Investor preference to government guaranteed securities shifted funds from corporations, which limited their ability to raise capital at reasonable rates. This disruption in the credit markets resulted in a decline in outstanding commercial paper. Our focus on quality and a shrinking commercial paper market caused the Fund’s sector allocation to shift heavily to money market eligible U.S. government securities. We will continue managing the Fund to take advantage of any short-term market fluctuations without exposing it to any unnecessary risks.

NOTESTOTHE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Regions Morgan Keegan Select Funds (the “Trust”) was organized as a Massachusetts business trust under a Declaration of Trust dated October 15, 1991. The Trust is an open-end, management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Trust consists of eleven portfolios, each with its own investment objective. The accompanying financial statements are for Regions Morgan Keegan Select Mid Cap Growth Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Growth Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Core Equity Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Mid Cap Value Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Value Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Balanced Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Fixed Income Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Limited Maturity Fixed Income Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Intermediate Tax Exempt Bond Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Treasury Money Market Fund and Regions Morgan Keegan Select Money Market Fund (each a “Fund” and, collectively, the “Funds”). All Funds, excluding Regions Morgan Keegan Select Treasury Money Market Fund and Regions Morgan Keegan Select Money Market Fund, are referred to as the “Variable Funds”. Regions Morgan Keegan Select Treasury Money Market Fund and Regions Morgan Keegan Select Money Market Fund are referred to as the “Money Market Funds”.
The Declaration of Trust permits the Board of Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value) for each class of shares. The Variable Funds offer Class A Shares, Class C Shares and Class I Shares, while the Money Market Funds offer Class A Shares and Class I Shares.
Each class of shares in each Fund has identical rights and privileges except with respect to fees paid under the Fund’s distribution plan, shareholder services plan and voting rights on matters affecting a single class of shares. Class A Shares of the Variable Funds are sold at net asset value (“NAV”) plus the applicable front-end sales charge. The sales charge varies depending on the amount purchased. Purchases of Class A Shares of the Variable Funds of $1 million or more are sold at NAV and have a 1% contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) if the shares are redeemed within one year of purchase. Class A Shares of the Money Market Funds are sold at NAV and are not subject to a CDSC. Class C Shares and Class I Shares of the Funds are sold without a sales charge at NAV per share. Class C Shares of the Variable Funds have a 1% CDSC if shares are redeemed within one year of purchase. Class I Shares are available only to a limited group of investors at the discretion of the Funds through special programs like employer-sponsored retirement plans, advisory accounts of the investment adviser and certain programs available through brokers, like wrap accounts. These programs usually involve special conditions and separate fees. The assets of each Fund of the Trust are segregated and a shareholder’s interest is limited to the Fund in which shares are held.
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Trust on behalf of the Funds enters into contracts with vendors and others that provide for general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds. Thus, an estimate of the financial impact, if any, of these arrangements cannot be made at this time.
2 | Significant Accounting Policies |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).
Investment Valuations—Investments in securities listed or traded on a securities exchange are valued at the last quoted sale price on the exchange where the security is primarily traded as of the close of business on the New York Stock Exchange, usually 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, on the valuation date. Equity securities traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market are valued at the Nasdaq Official Closing Price (“NOCP”) provided by Nasdaq each business day. The NOCP is the most recently reported price as of 4:00:02 p.m. Eastern Time, unless that price is outside the range of the “inside” bid and asked price (i.e., the bid and asked prices that dealers quote to each other when trading for their own accounts); in that case, Nasdaq will adjust the price to equal the inside bid or asked price, whichever is closer. Because of delays in
96
REGIONS MORGAN KEEGAN SELECT FUNDS
reporting trades, the NOCP may not be the last trade to occur before the market closes. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sales were reported for that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.
Equity and debt securities issued in private placements are valued on the bid side by a primary market dealer. Long-term debt securities (including U.S. government securities, listed corporate bonds, other debt and asset-backed securities, and unlisted securities and private placement securities) are generally valued at the latest price furnished by an independent pricing service or primary market dealer. Short-term debt securities with remaining maturities of more than 60 days for which market quotations are readily available are valued by an independent pricing service or primary market dealer. Short-term debt securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at cost with interest accrued or discount accreted to the date of maturity, unless such valuation, in the judgment of Morgan Asset Management, Inc. (the “Adviser”)’s Valuation Committee, does not represent fair value.
Investments in open-end registered investment companies, if any, are valued at NAV as reported by those investment companies. Foreign securities denominated in foreign currencies, if any, are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using current exchange rates.
In accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act, investments of the Money Market Funds are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Under the amortized cost method, discount or premium is amortized on a constant basis to the maturity of the security.
Investments for which market quotations are not readily available, or if available quotations are not believed to be reflective of fair value, are valued at fair value as determined by the Adviser’s Valuation Committee using procedures established by and under the supervision of the Trust’s Board of Trustees. The values assigned to fair valued investments are based on available information and do not necessarily represent amounts that might ultimately be realized, since such amounts depend on future developments inherent in long-term investments. Further, because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed, and the differences could be material.
A Fund may use the fair value of a security to calculate its NAV when, for example, (1) a portfolio security is not traded in a public market or the principal market in which the security trades is closed, (2) trading in a portfolio security is suspended and not resumed prior to the normal market close, (3) a portfolio security is not traded in significant volume for a substantial period, or (4) the Adviser determines that the quotation or price for a portfolio security provided by a dealer or independent pricing services is inaccurate.
Among the more specific factors that are considered by the Valuation Committee in determining the fair value of a security are: (1) type of security; (2) financial statements of the issuer; (3) cost at date of purchase (generally used for initial valuation); (4) size of the Fund’s holding; (5) for restricted securities, the discount from market value of unrestricted securities of the same class at the time of purchase; (6) the existence of a shelf registration for restricted securities; (7) information as to any transactions or offers with respect to the security; (8) special reports prepared by analysts; (9) the existence of merger proposals, tender offers or similar events affecting the security; (10) the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable companies; (11) the fundamental analytical data relating to the investment; (12) the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition of the securities; and (13) evaluation of the forces which influence the market in which these securities are purchased and sold.
There can be no assurance that a Fund could purchase or sell a portfolio security at the price used to calculate the Fund’s NAV. Changes in the fair valuation of portfolio securities may be less frequent and of greater magnitude than changes in the price of portfolio securities valued at their last sale price, by an independent pricing service, or based on market quotations.
The Funds have adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“FAS 157"). In accordance with FAS 157, “fair value” is defined as the price that a Fund would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most
97
REGIONS MORGAN KEEGAN SELECT FUNDS
advantageous market for the investment. Various inputs are used in determining the value of a Fund’s investments. FAS 157 establishes a three-tier hierarchy of inputs to establish a classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below.
n | | Level 1—quoted prices in active markets for identical investments; |
n | | Level 2—inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly, including inputs in markets that are not considered to be active; |
n | | Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). |
Inputs are used in applying the various valuation techniques and broadly refer to the assumptions that market participants use to make valuation decisions, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may include price information, volatility statistics, specific and broad credit data, liquidity statistics, and other factors. A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. However, the determination of what constitutes “observable” requires significant judgment by the Funds. The Funds consider observable data to be that market data which is readily available, regularly distributed or updated, reliable and verifiable, not proprietary, and provided by independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market. The categorization of a financial instrument within the hierarchy is based upon the pricing transparency of the instrument and does not necessarily correspond to the Funds’ perceived risk of that instrument.
Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and are therefore classified within Level 1, include active listed equities, certain U.S. government obligations, and certain money market securities. Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but are valued based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified within Level 2. These include certain U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, certain mortgage products, state, municipal and provincial obligations. Investments classified within Level 3 have significant unobservable inputs, as they trade infrequently or not at all.
The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments as of November 30, 2008:

Investment Transactions and Investment Income—Securities transactions are recorded on the trade date for financial reporting purposes. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are recorded using the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, is accrued on a daily basis.
Federal Income Taxes—Each Fund of the Trust is treated as a separate corporation for federal tax purposes. No provision for federal income or excise taxes is required because each Fund intends to continue to qualify each year as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of Chapter 1 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and to distribute substantially all its net investment income and net realized capital gains to its shareholders.
In July 2006, FASB released FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”), an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the accounting and disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are more likely than not to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more likely than not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year.
The Funds have reviewed all taxable years that are open for examination (i.e., not barred by the applicable statute of limitations) by taxing authorities of all major taxing jurisdictions, including the Internal Revenue Service. As of November 30, 2008, open taxable years consisted of the taxable years ended November 30, 2005 through November 30, 2008. No examination of any Fund is currently in progress.
Each Fund has reviewed all its open taxable years for all major taxing jurisdictions and concluded that application of FIN 48 resulted in no effect to the Fund’s financial position or results of operations. There is no tax liability resulting
99
REGIONS MORGAN KEEGAN SELECT FUNDS
from unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken on any Fund’s tax return for the taxable year ended November 30, 2008. The Funds also are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.
Expenses—Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged directly to that Fund, while expenses which are attributable to more than one Fund of the Trust are allocated among the respective Funds based upon relative net assets. Expenses directly attributable to a class of shares are charged directly to that class.
Class Allocations—The investment income, fees and expenses (other than class specific fees and expenses) and realized and unrealized gains and losses of a Fund are allocated to each class of shares based upon their relative net assets or another appropriate basis on the date the income is earned or the expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are incurred.
Dividends and Other Distributions to Shareholders—Each Fund pays dividends to its shareholders from its net investment income. Dividends for Regions Morgan Keegan Select Mid Cap Growth Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Growth Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Core Equity Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Mid Cap Value Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Value Fund and Regions Morgan Keegan Select Balanced Fund, if any, are declared and paid quarterly, while dividends for all other Funds are declared daily and paid monthly. Each Fund also pays distributions at least annually from its net realized capital gains, if any. Dividends are declared separately for each share class. No share class has preferential dividend rights; differences in per share dividend rates are generally due to differences in class-specific fees and expenses. Dividends and other distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-distribution date. The tax composition of each Fund’s distributions for each calendar year is reported on IRS Form 1099-DIV.
The amounts of dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital 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 (e.g., reclassification of market discounts, net operating losses, paydowns and distributions), they are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal tax treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. To the extent distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains exceed such income and capital gains for tax purposes, they are reported as return of capital.
Restricted Securities—The Variable Funds may purchase investment securities which are unregistered and thus restricted as to resale. These securities, if any, are valued by the Variable Funds after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions and the issuer’s financial performance. Where future disposition of these securities requires registration under the Securities Act of 1933, the Variable Funds have the right to include these securities in such registration, generally without cost to the Funds. The Variable Funds have no right to require registration of unregistered securities. At November 30, 2008, the Variable Funds did not own any restricted securities.
Repurchase Agreements—The Funds may purchase instruments from financial institutions, such as banks and broker-dealers, subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase them at an agreed-upon time and price (“repurchase agreement”). The Funds may invest in repurchase agreements with institutions that are deemed by the Adviser to be of good standing and creditworthy. A third party custodian bank takes possession of the underlying securities (“collateral”) of a repurchase agreement, the value of which is required at all times to at least equal the principal amount of the repurchase transaction and accrued interest. In the event of counterparty default on the obligation to repurchase, each Fund has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. However, there could be potential losses to the Funds in the event of default or bankruptcy by the counterparty to the agreement if the Funds are delayed or prevented from exercising their rights to dispose of the collateral, including the risk of possible decline in the value of the collateral during the period while the Funds seek to assert their rights.
100
REGIONS MORGAN KEEGAN SELECT FUNDS
Securities Lending—The Funds have established a securities lending agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon as securities lending agent in which a Fund may lend its portfolio securities to qualified borrowers in exchange for collateral consisting of either cash or U.S. government securities in an amount at least equal to the market value of the securities on loan. Cash collateral is invested in approved investments defined in the securities lending agreement. Earnings on collateral are allocated between the securities lending agent, as a fee for its services under the program, and the Funds, according to agreed-upon rates. In the event of counterparty default, a Fund may be subject to potential loss if it is delayed or prevented from exercising its right to dispose of the collateral. The Funds bear risk in the event that invested collateral is not sufficient to meet obligations due on loans. The Trust and Bank of New York Mellon have entered into a credit support agreement related to two securities owned by the Bank of New York Institutional Cash Reserves Fund which are currently in default. The Bank of New York Mellon has agreed to support one defaulted security up to 100% of its value and a second defaulted security up to 80% of its value. The approved investments for the cash collateral are valued at amortized cost or at par (which approximates fair value) with the exception of the two securities owned by the Bank of New York Institutional Cash Reserves Fund which are currently in default and are being valued at the amounts supported by the aforementioned credit support agreement.
Options Writing—When a Fund writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written in accordance with the Fund's policies on investment valuations discussed above. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or are closed are added to or offset against the proceeds or amount paid on the transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. If a put option is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Fund. The Fund, as writer of an option, may have no control over whether the underlying securities may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and, as a result, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the securities underlying the written option. Risk of loss is in excess of amounts recorded on the balance sheet.
When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions—The Funds may engage in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions. The Funds record when-issued securities on the trade date and maintain security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payment for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are marked to market daily and begin earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may occur on these transactions due to changes in market conditions or the failure of counterparties to perform under the contract.
Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
3 | Agreements and Other Transactions with Affiliates |
Investment Adviser—The Trust, on behalf of the Funds, has entered into Investment Advisory Agreements with the Adviser, a wholly owned subsidiary of MK Holding, Inc., which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Regions Financial Corporation (“Regions”). Under the terms of the agreements, the Funds are charged the following annual management fees which are calculated daily and paid monthly based on the average daily net assets of the Funds. The Adviser may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee.

(1) | | Effective April 1, 2008, the Adviser voluntarily agreed to waive fees and reimburse expenses to the extent that the Fund’s total annual operating expenses (excluding brokerage, interest, taxes, and extraordinary expenses) exceed 1.00%, 1.75% and 0.75% of |
101
REGIONS MORGAN KEEGAN SELECT FUNDS
| net assets of Class A Shares, Class C Shares and Class I Shares, respectively, on an annualized basis for the period that the voluntary waiver is in effect. The Adviser will evaluate the continuance of this voluntary waiver at each month-end and it can terminate this voluntary waiver at any time. |
(2) | | In light of recent extraordinary market events, effective November 20, 2008, the Adviser has voluntarily agreed to waive fees and reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to prevent a negative yield for each class of shares of the Fund.

Because federal income tax regulations differ in certain respects from GAAP, income and capital gain distributions determined in accordance with tax regulations may differ from net investment income and realized gains recognized for financial reporting purposes. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for net operating losses, discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities, real estate investment trust adjustments, paydown gains and losses, distribution reclassifications and the utilization of earnings and profits distributed to the shareholders on redemption of shares as part of the dividends paid deduction for income tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax differences, if any, relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid-in capital or to undistributed capital gains. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or NAVs per share. Any undistributed net income and realized gain remaining at fiscal year-end is distributed in the following year.
For the fiscal year ended November 30, 2008, permanent differences identified and reclassified among the components of net assets were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Fund | | Paid-In Capital | | | Undistributed Net Investment Income | | | Accumulated Net Realized Gain/(Loss) | |

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis net unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) is attributable in part to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and differing treatments for discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities.
Withholding taxes on foreign interest and dividends have been provided for in accordance with the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.

Capital Loss Carryforwards—As of November 30, 2008, the following Funds had capital loss carryforwards, which will reduce the Funds’ taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Code, and thus will reduce the amount of the distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Funds of any liability for federal tax.

Regions Morgan Keegan Select Intermediate Tax Exempt Bond Fund invests primarily in municipal debt securities. The ability of the issuers of the securities held by the Fund to meet their obligations might be affected by economic developments in a specific state or region.
Regions Morgan Keegan Select Fixed Income Fund and Regions Morgan Keegan Select Limited Maturity Fixed Income Fund may invest in investment grade and below investment grade debt securities, including mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. Below investment grade debt securities, commonly known as “junk bonds,” involve a higher degree of credit risk than investment grade debt securities. In the event of an unanticipated default, a Fund would experience a reduction in its income, a decline in the market value of the securities so affected and a decline in the NAV of its shares. During an economic downturn or period of rising interest rates, highly leveraged and other below investment grade issuers may experience financial stress that could adversely affect their ability to service principal and interest payment obligations, to meet projected business goals and to obtain additional financing. The market prices of below investment grade debt securities are generally less sensitive to interest rate changes than higher-rated investments but are more sensitive to adverse economic or political changes or individual developments specific to the issuer than higher-rated investments. Periods of economic or political uncertainty and change can be expected to result in significant volatility of prices for these securities. Rating services consider these securities to be speculative in nature.
10 | U.S. Treasury Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds |
In October 2008, the Board of Trustees approved Money Market Fund’s participation in the Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds (the “Program”) offered by the United States Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”). To participate, the Adviser paid a fee of 0.01% of Money Market Fund’s net assets as of September 19, 2008.
Under the Program, the Treasury guarantees the value of shares of a participating money market fund outstanding as of September 19, 2008 at $1.00 per share if the fund’s net asset value falls below $0.995 and the fund’s board decides to liquidate the fund. The Program covers the lesser of a shareholder’s account value on September 19, 2008, or on the date of liquidation.
The initial term of the Program expired on December 18, 2008. The Treasury has announced that the Program will be extended for a second term, which expires on April 30, 2009. Continued participation in each extension of the Program
114
REGIONS MORGAN KEEGAN SELECT FUNDS
will require payment of an additional fee. The Board of Trustees has determined that continued participation in the Program is in the best interest of Money Market Fund and its shareholders. The Adviser has paid the Treasury an amount equal to 0.015% of Money Market Fund’s net assets as of September 19, 2008 for Money Market Fund’s continued participation in the Program.
If the Program is extended beyond April 30, 2009, the Board of Trustees will consider whether to continue to participate. There is no assurance that Money Market Fund will continue to participate in the Program.
As of the time of this report, assets available to the Program to support all participating money market funds are limited to $50 billion and payments under the Program are dependent on the availability of assets in the Program at the time a request for payment is made. Payments will be made on a first-come-first-served basis.
On January 21, 2009, Regions Financial Corporation announced that Pioneer Investment Management, Inc. (“Pioneer”) has signed a definitive agreement to acquire the Funds, subject to shareholder approval. If the necessary approvals are obtained, the Funds will be reorganized into new or existing Pioneer Funds with generally similar investment objectives, strategies and risks. Shareholders of the Funds will receive a proxy statement/prospectus in advance of the shareholder meetings at which shareholders will vote on the proposed fund reorganizations. The proxy statement/prospectus will contain additional information about the reorganizations. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2009.
A condition of the Pioneer agreement to acquire the Funds is to cease all securities lending activities which, in turn, would trigger an “in-kind” transfer of the participating Funds’ ownership interest of the investments of the Bank of New York Institutional Cash Reserves Fund that the participating Funds invest their cash collateral as described in note 2, “Securities Lending”, and for which the values of certain investments are supported by a credit support agreement issued by the Bank of New York Mellon. Regions Bank has agreed to purchase these investments at a value equal to the credit support agreement provided by Bank of New York Mellon or to otherwise make the participating Funds whole upon this event.

PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of The Regions Morgan Keegan Select Funds:
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Regions Morgan Keegan Select Mid Cap Growth Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Growth Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Core Equity Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Mid Cap Value Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Value Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Balanced Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Fixed Income Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Limited Maturity Fixed Income Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Intermediate Tax Exempt Bond Fund, Regions Morgan Keegan Select Treasury Money Market Fund and Regions Morgan Keegan Select Money Market Fund (hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at November 30, 2008, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the periods then ended, and the financial highlights for the years or periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements 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. An audit 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. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at November 30, 2008 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In addition, the continuance of the investment sub-advisory agreement between Adviser and Channing Capital Management, LLC (“CCM”), with respect to Mid Cap Value Fund, was considered and unanimously approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees and separately by the Independent Trustees. The Board previously met in person on August 25, 2008 and continued the investment advisory agreements and the sub-advisory agreement (collectively, the “Agreements”) through December 31, 2008.
In evaluating the Agreements, the Board reviewed information furnished by Adviser and CCM in response to questions submitted by independent counsel to the Independent Trustees. The Independent Trustees were assisted by independent legal counsel during their deliberations and met separately from representatives of Adviser to discuss the contract review.
In approving the continuance of each Agreement, the Board determined that the terms of the Agreement are fair and reasonable and that approval of the Agreement on behalf of the applicable Fund is in the best interests of that Fund. The Board specifically considered the following, among other things, as relevant to its deliberations: (1) the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by Adviser and CCM under the Agreements; (2) the performance of each Fund compared to its benchmark index and a peer group of investment companies; (3) the costs of the services provided and profits realized by Adviser and CCM from their relationships with the Funds; (4) the extent to which economies of scale might be realized as a Fund grows; and (5) whether fee levels reflect any such potential economies of scale for the benefit of investors in a Fund. The Board also evaluated the terms of the Agreements, the overall fairness of the Agreements to each Fund and whether the Agreements were in the best interests of the Funds. In their deliberations, the Board did not identify any single factor or information as all-important or controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different importance to the various factors.
With respect to the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by Adviser and CCM, the Board considered Adviser’s and CCM’s investment processes, the qualifications and experience of the portfolio managers, and the experience and staffing of Adviser’s and CCM’s investment research personnel who perform services for the Funds. The Board also noted the extensive responsibilities that Adviser has as investment adviser to the Funds, and that CCM has as sub-adviser to Mid-Cap Value Fund. In particular, the Board considered the responsibility for making investment decisions on behalf of the Funds and placing all orders for the purchase and sale of investments for the Funds. The Board further considered Adviser’s and CCM’s policies and procedures for the selection of brokers and dealers and for obtaining research from those brokers and dealers and reviewed the products Adviser receives in connection with soft dollars generated by Fund brokerage. In considering the financial condition of Adviser and CCM, the Board reviewed financial information regarding each company and its affiliates (as applicable).
With respect to performance of the Funds, the Board considered the performance of each Fund relative to its benchmark index and a peer group of investment companies pursuing broadly similar strategies. The Board also considered performance in relation to the degree of risk undertaken by the portfolio manager. The Board noted that

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
during the past year, the performance of the Value Fund exceeded its benchmark and the performance of the Balanced Fund exceeded its blended index. The Board also noted that during the past year Mid Cap Growth Fund and Growth Fund each were in line with their respective benchmarks, while the performance of Money Market Fund and Treasury Money Market Fund remained satisfactory. Further, the Board observed that Core Equity Fund, Mid Cap Value Fund, Limited Maturity Fixed Income Fund, Fixed Income Fund and Tax-Exempt Bond Fund each underperformed their respective benchmarks. In considering the performance of each Fund, the Board noted the extraordinary market developments in 2008. Additionally, the Board considered that Core Equity Fund and Limited Maturity Fixed Income Fund had experienced significant net redemptions in 2008. The Board discussed each Fund’s performance with Adviser or CCM and the steps that Adviser or CCM had taken, or intended to take, to improve performance.
The Board also examined the fees payable under the Agreements and the total expense ratio of each Fund in light of the fees and total expense ratios for its peer group. The Board noted that the advisory fee for each of Limited Maturity Fixed Income Fund and Tax-Exempt Bond Fund was below the average for its peer group, while the total expense ratio for each of these Funds was slightly above the peer group average. For Mid Cap Growth Fund, the Board noted that the advisory fee was above average for its peer group, while the total expense ratio for the Fund was below the average for its peer group. The Board noted that the advisory fees for all other Funds were slightly above average for the applicable peer group, while the total expense ratios were near the median for the peer group. In this connection, the Board evaluated Adviser’s and CCM’s costs and profitability in providing services to the Funds, including the costs associated with personnel, systems, infrastructure, and certain other expenses necessary to perform their functions. The Board determined that CCM’s profitability with respect to Mid Cap Value Fund and Adviser’s profitability on a fund-by-fund and complex-wide basis were not excessive. The Board also determined that, other than the service fees for other services provided to the Funds by affiliates of Adviser and certain soft-dollar research services Adviser obtains, Adviser and its affiliates do not receive any material ancillary benefits as a result of Adviser’s relationship with the Funds. In addition, the Board noted that for Limited Maturity Fixed Income Fund, Adviser has voluntarily waived a portion of its fees since April 1, 2008. Further, the Board noted that, effective November 20, 2008, Adviser has voluntarily agreed to waive fees and reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to prevent a negative yield for each class of shares of Treasury Money Market Fund.
The Board discussed other factors, including economies of scale as Fund asset levels increased, the level of fees Adviser and CCM charge to other accounts for the same or similar services, Adviser’s and CCM’s compliance systems, and the Funds’ compliance issues during the past year.
Based on its review of the Agreements, the Board was satisfied that: (1) the Funds were likely to benefit from the nature, quality, and extent of Adviser’s and CCM’s services; and (2) Adviser and CCM have the resources to provide the services and to carry out their responsibilities under the Agreements. The Board also concluded that Adviser’s and CCM’s compensation, including ancillary benefits, is fair and reasonable.
Based on the foregoing, the Board, and the Independent Trustees voting separately, approved continuation of the Agreements as in the best interest of the respective Funds.
