"Oppenheimer Multiple Strategies Fund helped shelter shareholders from the
full
brunt of the stock market's decline. In an environment characterized by
corporate scandals, terrorism and a weak economy, the Fund's bond portfolio
helped offset losses among equities. Within the stock portfolio, some
defensive
holdings such as healthcare and food retailers, held their value better than
more growth-oriented positions."

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
Dear Shareholder,
As we near the end of 2002, global tensions and economic challenges that began
in 2001 continue to impact events around the world and in the financial
markets.
When it comes to investing, words like trust, experience and consistency have
never been more meaningful.
Recently, accounting scandals and an overall lack of investor confidence in
corporate America have weakened the stock market and caused the prices of many
individual securities to drop sharply during the period. On the other hand,
the
overall bond market has provided some positive returns and stability, helping
to
provide investors with a safe haven from the equity markets. Not surprisingly,
many investors are unsure what their next step should be and where they should
turn to invest their money.
Despite the continued challenges, there are signs of a moderate recovery in
the U.S. economy. Rooted in a combination of low inflation and little pressure
on the Federal Reserve Board to raise interest rates, business conditions are
slowly improving, and we believe the prospects for long-term investors look
bright. With that said, we expect the economy and markets to return to
historical levels and not the exaggerated growth levels that typified the late
1990s and early 2000s.
Now more than ever, investors can see on two levels the fundamental
advantage
of mutual funds: diversification. Investors can diversify their portfolios by
investing among several types of funds to reduce short-term risks. The right
asset allocation among equity and fixed-income funds can help cushion an
investor's portfolio from tough market conditions. Secondly, mutual funds,
while
certainly not immune to volatility and declines in either the equity or
fixed-income markets, offer clear-cut advantages over direct ownership of
individual

securities. Because fund portfolios often contain a number of different
investments, one security's poor performance usually does not have a dramatic
effect on the fund as a whole.
Your financial advisor is also an equally important player on your team of
investment professionals. Even if you consult with your advisor on a regular
basis, now may be a good time to make sure that your portfolio still reflects
the right mix of investments to help you reach your long-term goals.
We at OppenheimerFunds appreciate and thank you for your continued trust as
we strive toward our ongoing goal of investment excellence. To us, this is
not a
phrase uttered lightly. It's a commitment to providing shareholders with
world-class asset management, top-quality service and strong fund performance
over time. In other words, it's what makes OppenheimerFunds The Right Way to
Invest.

AN INTERVIEW WITH YOUR FUND'S MANAGERS
Q How did Oppenheimer Multiple Strategies Fund perform during the 12-month
period that ended September 30, 2002?
A. While negative returns are never satisfying, we believe that challenging
conditions in the U.S. stock market once again demonstrated the value of
broadly
diversified, balanced portfolios such as those in the Fund. Although the
Fund's
Class A shares returned -13.83% after taking sales charges into account, the
Fund outpaced its benchmark, the S&P 500 Composite Stock Price Index.(2) In
what
is potentially shaping up to be the third consecutive year of negative stock
market performance, the Fund's bond portfolio helped cushion equity-related
losses. Within the Fund's stock portfolio, our multi-style,
multi-capitalization
approach helped the Fund avoid the brunt of particularly disappointing returns
produced by individual stocks and industry groups.
How has recent economic weakness affected the Fund's performance?
When the reporting period began, the U.S. was mired in a recession that had
recently been intensified by the September 11 attacks. In that environment,
the
Federal Reserve Board continued to reduce short-term interest rates
aggressively, driving the benchmark federal funds rate to 1.75%, its lowest
level in 40 years. As investors began to anticipate the start of an economic
recovery, both stocks and bonds rallied off the lows established after the
attacks. The Fund benefited during the market rebound because it was invested
opportunistically during the decline in some hard hit industries, including
several consumer-oriented stocks that bounced back quickly when investors
recognized their value.
When the economic recovery finally arrived in early 2002, however, it
proved
to be less robust and more uncertain than most investors had hoped. As a
result,
the Fed held interest

2. The S&P 500 Index had a one-year return for the period ended 9/30/02 of

Performance to the Market" on page 7.

AN INTERVIEW WITH YOUR FUND'S MANAGERS
rates steady through the remainder of the reporting period, contrary to
investors' early expectations that interest rates would rise. The economy's
lackluster growth proved positive for U.S. government bonds, which benefited
from a "flight to quality" among investors. The Fund's broad, multi-sector
exposure to the bond market hindered performance in this environment. Although
the Fund's holdings of U.S. Treasury securities and high quality corporates
rallied, its high yield bonds, emerging market bonds and mortgage-backed
securities languished, detracting from overall performance.
What factors contributed positively to the Fund's performance?
In addition to U.S. Treasury securities, relatively attractive returns were
produced by the equity portfolio's tilt toward the value style of investing.
Value investors favor companies that are attractively priced relative to their
future earnings potential, and the value style tends to preserve capital more
effectively during downturns than other investment approaches. As of the end
of
the reporting period, approximately 40% of the Fund's stocks fell under the
value category. In contrast, the growth style represented the next largest
area
of concentration at about 25%.
The Fund's equity returns were also boosted by its ability to invest across
different capitalization ranges. Because smaller companies generally provided
higher returns than large-cap stocks during the 12-month period, the Fund
benefited from its exposure to small- and mid-cap companies. In addition, the
Fund maintained a relatively high percentage of assets in cash through much of
the period, helping to preserve capital. Finally, the Fund's foreign stock
positions benefited from the favorable movements of currency exchange rates.
How did the Fund's stock portfolio change during the reporting period?
As we mentioned in our semiannual report to shareholders six months ago, we
substantially increased the Fund's exposure to the healthcare group, primarily
among pharmaceutical
[SIDEBAR]
Our strategy of diversifying broadly across asset classes, investment styles
and
capitalization ranges helped the Fund avoid the brunt of the stock market's
steep declines.

companies. In our view, many drug stocks fell to unwarranted low levels
because
of concerns that upcoming patent expirations and potential government
regulation
might limit earnings. Despite these factors, we believe that profits at
pharmaceutical companies should continue to grow, partly because we expect
demographic trends to increasingly favor drug therapies. We also added to
other
holdings that we consider defensive, including food retailers. After all,
people
continue to need food and medicine regardless of the economic environment.
On the other hand, we reduced the Fund's energy holdings because of our
view
that high prevailing oil prices limited their opportunities for future gains.
Otherwise, we identified opportunities to invest in individual companies that
we
considered attractive. For example, we liked auto parts retailer Delphi Corp.
and financial services provider CIT Group, Inc. because of their low stock
prices and ability to generate substantial levels of cash flow. We also
invested
opportunistically in companies that we believe will survive current industry
downturns, including advertising conglomerate Omnicom Group, Inc., Delta Air
Lines, Inc. and technology companies EMC Corp. and Cisco Systems, Inc.
What is your outlook for the foreseeable future?
We are cautiously optimistic. We expect stock market volatility to continue
over
the near term as long as current economic and political uncertainties persist.
However, we believe that volatility breeds opportunity when fundamentally
sound
companies see their stocks decline because of concerns that have little to do
with their businesses or markets. That's why we believe in owning companies,
not
stocks. We look at factors such as book value, effective barriers to entry and
return on equity to determine whether these are businesses we would like to
buy

FUND PERFORMANCE
How Has the Fund Performed? Below is a discussion by OppenheimerFunds, Inc.,
of
the Fund's performance during its fiscal year ended September 30, 2002,
followed
by a graphical comparison of the Fund's performance to an appropriate
broad-based market indices.
Management's Discussion of Performance. During the Fund's fiscal year that
ended
September 30, 2002, Oppenheimer Multiple Strategies Fund's Class A performance
(-13.83% after taking sales charges into account) was strongly influenced by
changing economic and market conditions. Prices of interest rate-sensitive
bonds
rallied in the low interest rate-environment, offsetting losses among high
yield
fixed-income securities and emerging market bonds. In the stock portfolio, the
Fund benefited from its holdings of small- and mid-cap stocks, which generally
performed better than their large-cap counterparts. The Fund also benefited
from
the portfolio manager's decision to emphasize the value style of investing
over
other investment approaches. The Fund's technology holdings generally
detracted
from returns, but we continue to focus on dominant companies that we believe
should benefit in a recovery. The Fund's portfolio holdings and allocations
are
subject to change.
Comparing the Fund's Performance to the Market. The graphs that follow show
the
performance of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in Class A, Class B, Class C
and Class N shares of the Fund held until September 30, 2002. In the case of
Class A shares, performance is measured over a ten-year period. In the case of
Class B shares, performance is measured from inception of the class on August
29, 1995. In the case of Class C shares, performance is measured from
inception
of the class on December 1, 1993. In the case of Class N shares, performance
is
measured from inception of the class on March 1, 2001. The Fund's performance
reflects the deduction of the 5.75% maximum initial sales charge on Class A
shares, the 5% (1-year) and 2% (5-year) applicable contingent deferred sales
charge for Class B, and the 1% (1-year) contingent deferred sales charge for
Class C and Class N shares. The graphs assume that all dividends and capital
gains distributions were reinvested in additional shares.
Because the Fund invests in a variety of equity and fixed-income
securities,
the Fund's performance is compared to the performance of two indices: (i) the
Standard & Poor's (S&P) 500 Index, a broad-based index of equity securities
widely regarded as a general measure of the performance of the U.S. equity
securities market; and (ii) the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, an
unmanaged index of U.S. Government Treasury and agency issues, investment
grade
corporate bond issues and fixed-rate mortgage-backed securities. That index is
widely regarded as a measure of the performance of the domestic debt
securities
market.
Index performance reflects the reinvestment of dividends but does not
consider the effect of capital gains or transaction costs, and none of the
data
in the graphs that follow shows the effect of taxes. The Fund's performance
reflects the effects of Fund business and operating expenses. While index
comparisons may be useful to provide a benchmark for the Fund's performance,
it
must be noted that the Fund's investments are not limited to the securities or
countries in the indices.

NOTES
In reviewing performance, please remember that past performance cannot
guarantee
future results. Investment return and principal value of an investment in the
Fund will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth
more or less than the original cost. Because of ongoing market volatility, the
Fund's performance may be subject to substantial fluctuations, and current
performance may be more or less than the results shown. For updates on the
Fund's performance, visit our website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com.
Total returns and the ending account values in the graphs include changes in
share price and reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions in a
hypothetical investment for the periods shown. The Fund's total returns shown
do
not reflect the deduction of income taxes on an individual's investment. Taxes
may reduce your actual investment returns on income or gains paid by the Fund
or
any gains you may realize if you sell your shares. For more complete
information
about the Fund, including charges, expenses and risks, please refer to the
prospectus. To obtain a copy, call your financial advisor, call
OppenheimerFunds
Distributor, Inc. at 1.800.CALL.OPP (1.800.225.5677) or visit the
OppenheimerFunds website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com. Read the prospectus
carefully before you invest or send money.
Class A shares of the Fund were first publicly offered on 4/24/87. Unless
otherwise noted, Class A returns include the current maximum initial sales
charge of 5.75%. The Fund's maximum sales charge for Class A shares was lower
prior to 4/1/91, so actual performance may have been higher.
Class B shares of the Fund were first publicly offered on 8/29/95. Unless
otherwise noted, Class B returns include the applicable contingent deferred
sales charge of 5% (1-year) and 2% (5-year). Because Class B shares convert to
Class A shares 72 months after purchase, the "since inception" return for
Class
B uses Class A performance for the period after conversion. Class B shares are
subject to an annual 0.75% asset-based sales charge.
Class C shares of the Fund were first publicly offered on 12/1/93. Unless
otherwise noted, Class C returns include the contingent deferred sales charge
of
1% for the one-year period. Class C shares are subject to an annual 0.75%
asset-based sales charge.
Class N shares of the Fund were first publicly offered on 3/1/01. Class N
shares
are offered only through retirement plans. Unless otherwise noted, Class N
returns include the contingent deferred sales charge of 1% for the one-year
period. Class N shares are subject to an annual 0.25% asset-based sales
charge.
An explanation of the calculation of performance is in the Fund's Statement of
Additional Information.

2. Non-income producing security.
3. Represents securities sold under Rule 144A, which are exempt from
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. These securities
have
been determined to be liquid under guidelines established by the Board of
Trustees. These securities amount to $4,065,032 or 0.71% of the Fund's net
assets as of September 30, 2002.
4. Units may be comprised of several components, such as debt and equity
and/or
warrants to purchase equity at some point in the future. For units, which
represent debt securities, principal amount disclosed represents total
underlying principal.
5. Identifies issues considered to be illiquid--See Note 7 of Notes to
Financial
Statements.
6. Interest-Only Strips represent the right to receive the monthly interest
payments on an underlying pool of mortgage loans. These securities typically
decline in price as interest rates decline. Most other fixed income securities
increase in price when interest rates decline. The principal amount of the
underlying pool represents the notional amount on which current interest is
calculated. The price of these securities is typically more sensitive to
changes
in prepayment rates than traditional mortgage-backed securities (for example,
GNMA pass-throughs). Interest rates disclosed represent current yields based
upon the current cost basis and estimated timing and amount of future cash
flows.
7. Represents the current interest rate for a variable or increasing rate
security.
8. Zero coupon bond reflects effective yield on the date of purchase.
9. Issuer is in default.
10. Denotes a step bond: a zero coupon bond that converts to a fixed or
variable
interest rate at a designated future date.

33 | OPPENHEIMER MULTIPLE STRATEGIES FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Multiple Strategies Fund (the Fund) is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management
investment company. The Fund's investment objective is to seek high total
investment return consistent with preservation of principal. The Fund's
investment advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager).
The Fund offers Class A, Class B, Class C and Class N shares. Class A
shares
are sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset value plus a
front-end sales charge. Class B, Class C and Class N shares are sold without
a
front-end sales charge but may be subject to a contingent deferred sales
charge
(CDSC). Class N shares are sold only through retirement plans. Retirement
plans
that offer Class N shares may impose charges on those accounts. All classes
of
shares have identical rights and voting privileges. Earnings, net assets and
net asset value per share may differ by minor amounts due to each class
having
its own expenses directly attributable to that class. Classes A, B, C and N
have separate distribution and/or service plans. Class B shares will
automatically convert to Class A shares six years after the date of purchase.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Fund.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Securities Valuation. Securities listed or traded on National Stock Exchanges
or other domestic or foreign exchanges are valued based on the last sale
price
of the security traded on that exchange prior to the time when the Fund's
assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the
last
sale price on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of the
closing
bid and asked prices, and if not, at the closing bid price. Securities
(including restricted securities) for which quotations are not readily
available are valued primarily using dealer-supplied valuations, a portfolio
pricing service authorized by the Board of Trustees, or at their fair value.
Fair value is determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures
under the supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term "money market
type"
debt securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at
amortized cost (which approximates market value).
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Structured Notes. The Fund invests in structured notes whose market values
and
redemption prices are linked to the market value of specific securities. The
structured notes are leveraged, which increases the Fund's exposure to
changes
in prices of the underlying securities and increases the volatility of each
note's market value relative to the change in the underlying security prices.
Fluctuations in value of these securities are recorded as unrealized gains
and
losses in the accompanying financial statements. The Fund records a realized
gain or loss when a structured note is sold or matures. As of September 30,
2002, the market value of these securities comprised of 0.8% of the Fund's
net
assets, and resulted in unrealized losses in the current period of $47,765.
34 | OPPENHEIMER MULTIPLE STRATEGIES FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Security Credit Risk. The Fund invests in high-yield securities, which may be
subject to a greater degree of credit risk, greater market fluctuations and
risk of loss of income and principal, and may be more sensitive to economic
conditions than lower-yielding, higher-rated fixed-income securities. The
Fund
may acquire securities in default, and is not obligated to dispose of
securities whose issuers subsequently default. As of September 30, 2002,
securities with an aggregate market value of $5,553,228, representing 0.97%
of
the Fund's net assets, were in default.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Foreign Currency Translation. The accounting records of the Fund are
maintained
in U.S. dollars. Prices of securities denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into U.S. dollars at the closing rates of exchange. Amounts
related
to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and investment income are
translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of
such
transactions.
The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is
separately identified from the fluctuations arising from changes in market
values of securities held and reported with all other foreign currency gains
and losses in the Fund's Statement of Operations.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joint Repurchase Agreements. The Fund, along with other affiliated funds of
the
Manager, may transfer uninvested cash balances into one or more joint
repurchase agreement accounts. These balances are invested in one or more
repurchase agreements, secured by U.S. government securities. Securities
pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held by a custodian bank
until the agreements mature. Each agreement requires that the market value of
the collateral be sufficient to cover payments of interest and principal;
however, in the event of default by the other party to the agreement,
retention
of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other
than
those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated daily
to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets
represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a
specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to comply with provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute all of its taxable income, including any net realized gain on
investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to
shareholders.
Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required.
As of September 30, 2002, the Fund had approximately $1,180,000 of
post-October losses available to offset future capital gains, if any. Such
losses, if unutilized, will expire in 2011. Additionally, the Fund had
approximately $2,413,000 of post-October foreign currency losses which were
deferred.
35 | OPPENHEIMER MULTIPLE STRATEGIES FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued
Trustees' Compensation. The Fund has adopted an unfunded retirement plan for
the Fund's independent trustees. Benefits are based on years of service and
fees paid to each trustee during the years of service. During the year ended
September 30, 2002, the Fund's projected benefit obligations were increased
by
$19,102 and payments of $9,080 were made to retired trustees, resulting in an
accumulated liability of $130,481 as of September 30, 2002.
The Board of Trustees has adopted a deferred compensation plan for
independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all
or
a portion of annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund.
Under the plan, the compensation deferred is periodically adjusted as though
an
equivalent amount had been invested for the Board of Trustees in shares of
one
or more Oppenheimer funds selected by the trustee. The amount paid to the
Board
of Trustees under the plan will be determined based upon the performance of
the
selected funds. Deferral of trustees' fees under the plan will not affect the
net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund's assets,
liabilities or net investment income per share.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to
shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations,
are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Classification of Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Net investment
income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement
and tax purposes. The character of dividends and distributions made during
the
fiscal year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from
their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to
timing of dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are
distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net
realized
gain was recorded by the Fund.
The Fund adjusts the classification of distributions to shareholders to
reflect the differences between financial statement amounts and distributions
determined in accordance with income tax regulations. Accordingly, during the
year ended September 30, 2002, amounts have been reclassified to reflect an
increase in paid-in capital of $58,107, a decrease in undistributed net
investment income of $1,527,979, and a decrease in accumulated net realized
loss on investments of $1,469,872. This reclassification includes $2,894
distributed in connection with Fund share redemptions which increased paid-in
capital and reduced accumulated net realized gain. Net assets of the Fund
were
unaffected by the reclassifications.
36 | OPPENHEIMER MULTIPLE STRATEGIES FUND
The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended September 30,
2002 and September 30, 2001 was as follows:
Year Ended Year Ended
September 30, 2002 September 30, 2001

Distributions paid from:
Ordinary income $16,739,835 $23,605,134

Return of capital -- --
-------------------------------
Total $36,610,527 $58,296,244
===============================
As of September 30, 2002, the components of distributable earnings on a tax
basis were as follows:
Undistributed net investment income $ 2,930,086
Accumulated net realized loss (7,786,275)
Net unrealized depreciation (30,962,433)
-------------
Total $(35,818,622)
=============
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or
upon
ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the
ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend
income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities
received. Interest income, which includes accretion of discount and
amortization of premium, is accrued as earned.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date.
Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income
and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

3. Purchases and Sales of Securities
The aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities, other
than short-term obligations, for the year ended September 30, 2002, were
$184,248,689 and $214,348,729, respectively.
As of September 30, 2002, unrealized appreciation (depreciation) based on
cost
of securities for federal income tax purposes of $605,435,403 was composed
of:
Gross unrealized appreciation $ 66,734,752
Gross unrealized depreciation (101,251,753)
--------------
Net unrealized depreciation $ (34,517,001)
==============
The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation
and
depreciation, if applicable, is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of
losses on wash sales, or return of capital dividends, and the realization for
tax purposes of unrealized gain (loss) on certain futures contracts,
investments in passive foreign investment companies, and forward foreign
currency exchange contracts.
===============================================================================
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees. Management fees paid to the Manager are in accordance with
the
investment advisory agreement with the Fund which provides for a fee of 0.75%
of the first $200 million of average annual net assets of the Fund, 0.72% of
the next $200 million, 0.69% of the next $200 million, 0.66% of the next $200
million, 0.60% of the next $700 million, and 0.58% of average annual net
assets
in excess of $1.5 billion.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Transfer Agent Fees. OppenheimerFunds Services (OFS), a division of the
Manager, acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund.
The Fund pays OFS a $19.75 per account fee.

under the Class A Plan totaled $1,114,460, all of which were paid by the
Distributor to recipients, and included $65,458 paid to an affiliate of the
Manager. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with respect to
Class
A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent years.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

===============================================================================
5. Foreign Currency Contracts
A foreign currency contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign
currency at a future date, at a negotiated rate. The Fund may enter into
foreign currency contracts for operational purposes and to seek to protect
against adverse exchange rate fluctuations. Risks to the Fund include the
potential inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract.
The net U.S. dollar value of foreign currency underlying all contractual
commitments held by the Fund and the resulting unrealized appreciation or
depreciation are determined using foreign currency exchange rates as provided
by a reliable bank, dealer or pricing service. Unrealized appreciation and
depreciation on foreign currency contracts are reported in the Statement of
Assets and Liabilities as a receivable or payable and in the Statement of
Operations with the change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation.
The Fund may realize a gain or loss upon the closing or settlement of the
foreign currency transactions. Such realized gains and losses are reported
with
all other foreign currency gains and losses in the Statement of Operations.
===============================================================================
6. Option Activity
The Fund may buy and sell put and call options, or write put and covered call
options on portfolio securities in order to produce incremental earnings or
protect against changes in the value of portfolio securities.
The Fund generally purchases put options or writes covered call options to
hedge against adverse movements in the value of portfolio holdings. When an
option is written, the Fund receives a premium and becomes obligated to sell
or
purchase the underlying security at a fixed price, upon exercise of the
option.
Options are valued daily based upon the last sale price on the principal
exchange on which the option is traded and unrealized appreciation or
depreciation is recorded. The Fund will realize a gain or loss upon the
expiration or closing of the option transaction. When an option is exercised,
the proceeds on sales for a written call option, the purchase cost for a
written put option, or the cost of the security for a purchased put or call
option is adjusted by the amount of premium received or paid.
Securities designated to cover outstanding call options are noted in the
Statement of Investments where applicable. Shares subject to call, expiration
date, exercise price, premium received and market value are detailed in a
note
to the Statement of Investments. Options written are reported as a liability
in
the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Realized gains and losses are
reported
in the Statement of Operations.
The risk in writing a call option is that the Fund gives up the
opportunity
for profit if the market price of the security increases and the option is
exercised. The risk in writing a put option is that the Fund may incur a loss
if the market price of the security decreases and the option is exercised.
The
risk in buying an option is that the Fund pays a premium whether or not the
option is exercised. The Fund also has the additional risk of not being able
to
enter into a closing transaction if a liquid secondary market does not exist.

7. Illiquid Securities
As of September 30, 2002, investments in securities included issues that are
illiquid. A security may be considered illiquid if it lacks a readily
available
market or if its valuation has not changed for a certain period of time. The
Fund intends to invest no more than 10% of its net assets (determined at the
time of purchase and reviewed periodically) in illiquid securities. The
aggregate value of illiquid securities subject to this limitation as of
September 30, 2002 was $4,694,711, which represents 0.82% of the Fund's net
assets.
===============================================================================
8. Bank Borrowings
The Fund may borrow from a bank for temporary or emergency purposes
including,
without limitation, funding of shareholder redemptions provided asset
coverage
for borrowings exceeds 300%. The Fund has entered into an agreement which
enables it to participate with other Oppenheimer funds in an unsecured line
of
credit with a bank, which permits borrowings up to $400 million,
collectively.
Interest is charged to each fund, based on its borrowings, at a rate equal to
the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.45%. Borrowings are payable within 30 days
after
such loan is executed. The Fund also pays a commitment fee equal to its pro
rata share of the average unutilized amount of the credit facility at a rate
of
0.08% per annum.
The Fund had no borrowings outstanding during the year ended or at
September
30, 2002.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
===============================================================================
The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
Oppenheimer Multiple Strategies Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
Oppenheimer Multiple Strategies Fund, including the statement of investments,
as of September 30, 2002, and the related statement of operations for the
year
then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years
in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five
years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial
highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our
responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial
highlights
based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we
plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements and financial highlights are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures
included confirmation of securities owned as of September 30, 2002, by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate
auditing
procedures where replies from brokers were not received. An audit also
includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Oppenheimer Multiple Strategies Fund as of September 30, 2002, the results of
its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for
each
of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for
each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with
accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION Unaudited
===============================================================================
In early 2003, shareholders of record will receive information regarding all
dividends and distributions paid to them by the Fund during calendar year
2002.
Regulations of the U.S. Treasury Department require the Fund to report this
information to the Internal Revenue Service.
Dividends and distributions of $0.4615, $0.4363, $0.4362 and $0.4527 per
share were paid to Class A, Class B, Class C and Class N shareholders,
respectively, on December 12, 2001, of which $0.3663 was designated as a
"capital gain distribution" for federal income tax purposes. Whether received
in stock or in cash, the capital gain distribution should be treated by
shareholders as a gain from the sale of capital assets held for more than one
year (long-term capital gains).
Dividends paid by the Fund during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002
which are not designated as capital gain distributions should be multiplied
by
24.234% to arrive at the amount eligible for the corporate dividend-received
deduction.
The foregoing information is presented to assist shareholders in reporting
distributions received from the Fund to the Internal Revenue Service. Because
of the complexity of the federal regulations which may affect your individual
tax return and the many variations in state and local tax regulations, we
recommend that you consult your tax advisor for specific guidance.

PRIVACY POLICY NOTICE
As an Oppenheimer fund shareholder, you are entitled to know how we protect
your
personal information and how we limit its disclosure.
Information Sources
We obtain nonpublic personal information about our shareholders from the
following sources:
o Applications or other forms
o When you create a user ID and password for online account access
o When you enroll in eDocs Direct
o Your transactions with us, our affiliates or others
o A software program on our website, often referred to as a "cookie," which
indicates which parts of our site you've visited
If you visit www.oppenheimerfunds.com and do not log on to the secure account
information areas, we do not obtain any personal information about you. When
you
do log on to a secure area, we do obtain your user ID and password to identify
you. We also use this information to provide you with products and services
you
have requested, to inform you about products and services that you may be
interested in and to assist you in other ways.
Protection of Information
We do not disclose any nonpublic personal information (such as names on a
customer list) about current or former customers to anyone, except as
permitted
by law.
Disclosure of Information
We send your financial advisor (as designated by you) copies of confirmations,
account statements and other documents reporting activity in your fund
accounts.
We may also use details about you and your investments to help us, our
financial
service affiliates or firms that jointly market their financial products and
services with ours, to better serve your investment needs or suggest financial
services or educational material that may be of interest to you.
Right of Refusal
We will not disclose your personal information to unaffiliated third parties
(except as permitted by law), unless we first offer you a reasonable
opportunity
to refuse or "opt out" of such disclosure.
Security
In the coming months, an Internet browser that supports 128-bit encryption
will
be required to view the secure pages of www.oppenheimerfunds.com. These areas
include:
o Account access
o Create a user ID and profile
o User profile
o eDocs Direct, our electronic document delivery service
52 | OPPENHEIMER MULTIPLE STRATEGIES FUND
To find out if your Internet browser supports 128-bit encryption, or for
instructions on how to upgrade your browser, visit the Help section of
www.oppenheimerfunds.com.
Emails and Encryption
As a security measure, we do not include personal or account information in
nonsecure emails, and we advise you not to send such information to us in
nonsecure emails. Instead, you may take advantage of the secure features of
our
website to encrypt your email correspondence. To do this, you will need to use
an Internet browser that supports 128-bit encryption. If you are not sure if
your Internet browser supports 128-bit encryption, or need instructions on how
to upgrade your browser, visit the Help section of www.oppenheimerfunds.com
for
assistance.
o All transactions, including redemptions, exchanges and purchases are
secured
by Secure Socket Layers (SSL) and encryption. SSL is used to establish a
secure connection between your PC and OppenheimerFunds' server. It
transmits
information in an encrypted and scrambled format.
o Encryption is achieved through an electronic scrambling technology that
uses
a "key" to code and then decode the data. Encryption acts like the cable
converter box you may have on your television set. It scrambles data with
secret code so that no one can make sense of it while it is being
transmitted. When the data reaches its destination, the same software
unscrambles the data.
o You can exit the secure area by either closing your browser, or for added
security, you can use the Log Out of Account Area button before you close
your browser.
Other Security Measures
We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect your
personal account information. Our employees and agents have access to that
information only so that they may offer you products or provide services to
you,
for example, when responding to your account questions.
How You Can Help
You can also do your part to keep your account information private, and to
prevent unauthorized transactions. If you obtain a user ID and password for
your
account, do not allow it to be used by anyone else. Also, take special
precautions when accessing your account on a computer used by others.
