Investments in variable portfolios involve risk. Some portfolios have more risk than others. These include portfolios that allow exposure to or otherwise concentrate investments in certain sectors, geographic regions, security types, market capitalization or foreign securities (e.g., political or economic instability, which can be accentuated in Emerging Market countries). Please read the prospectus for specific details regarding its investments and risk profile.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

Scudder Aggressive Growth Portfolio

For the 12 months ended December 31, 2003, the portfolio posted a strong 33.99% total return (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges) outpacing its benchmark, the Russell 3000 Growth Index, which returned 30.97%. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

At the sector level, the portfolio's technology stocks experienced a healthy gain, rising on average 60% for the period, versus 49% for the benchmark's technology stocks. The portfolio's second-best-performing sector was consumer discretionary. While the portfolio was underweight in this sector, our stock picks were up an average of 57%, versus the benchmark's 36% average. On the downside, the portfolio was underweight in the industrials sector, which came back strongly during the period, and our stock picks fell short of the benchmark average for that sector.

Looking at securities, the highest-contributing stock was National Semiconductor Corp. Its shares were up more than 150% for the year. The next-best performer was Harman International Industries, Inc., a consumer discretionary company that produces entertainment subsystems for automobiles. In terms of detractors, LaBranche & Co., Inc., a financial specialist firm, had its stock valuation decline significantly when the New York Stock Exchange scandal hit, calling the specialist system into question. We believe LaBranche will bounce back, and the portfolio continues to hold it. The next three biggest detractors were stocks we inherited from the previous portfolio management team. The portfolio has since exited these securities.

We have positioned the portfolio based on the thesis of a sustained economic recovery. We believe that as the economy improves and business decision makers gain more confidence, job growth should finally ignite, propelling both consumer and capital spending.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

Scudder Blue Chip Portfolio

Two main stories with fortuitous outcomes emerged in 2003. The war in Iraq was the first story. When it became clear that coalition forces would win the main campaign to depose Saddam Hussein's regime, market sentiment rose while the risk premium fell, sparking a strong spring rally. The second story began at the end of summer, when we saw leading indicators point to a potential economic recovery. By the fourth quarter, it became clear that the recovery would be self-sustaining.

With these dramas at play, Scudder Blue Chip Portfolio produced a strong 27.25% total return (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges) for the 12 months ended December 31, 2003. Its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Index, returned 29.89% for the same annual period. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

Overweight positions in top-10 holdings Intel Corp. and Citigroup, Inc. racked up nice gains for the portfolio. Intel Corp., the world's largest semiconductor chip maker, was a direct beneficiary of the past year's tremendous revival in technology. Citigroup, Inc., the financial services behemoth, managed to beat earnings estimates throughout the year.

Detractors included Eastman Kodak Co. The market did not take a liking to the company's plan to focus on digital technology versus traditional film - and punished its stock accordingly.

We believe the portfolio's strong performance in 2003 validates the strength of the disciplines we use to manage risk and select companies with solid balance sheets, strong cash flows, improving relative earnings and attractive valuations.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

Scudder Contrarian Value Portfolio

Stocks rebounded strongly in 2003, and Scudder Contrarian Value Portfolio posted strong gains. The portfolio posted a total return of 32.60% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges), outperforming the 30.03% return by the Russell 1000 Value Index and the 28.68% return of the broad market as measured by the Standard & Poor's 500 (S&P 500) index. Stocks enjoyed a broad-based advance during the year, and value stocks outperformed growth stocks. This type of environment favors our active management style and low price-to-earnings (P/E) contrarian value discipline. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

The portfolio was helped by its substantial underweight in telecommunications - one of the worst-performing sectors. Meanwhile, the portfolio's financial stocks logged substantial gains, particularly its regional bank stocks. An overweight position in technology also helped performance with semiconductor stocks posting the strongest returns. While technology is traditionally considered a growth sector, we found opportunities to add tech stocks that fit our low-P/E style.

The only material detractor from performance was the portfolio's overweight position in health care. While we are optimistic about the sector's long-term performance potential, in hindsight we were premature in building the portfolio's position. We were drawn particularly to the pharmaceutical stocks, which struggled on concerns of fierce competition and a lack of new products in development. We remain committed to the sector and have maintained portfolio's pharmaceuticals position.

In managing the portfolio we look for solid companies with projected earnings growth that is faster than that of the market, valuations that are lower than the market's and current dividend income that is materially higher. While the market rallied strongly in 2003, there remains a large pool of attractively valued, quality stocks that fit within our contrarian philosophy.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

Scudder Fixed Income Portfolio

In the midst of signs of an improving US economy, the bond market gains in 2003 were led by corporate bonds. Among investment-grade corporate bonds, BBB-rated securities were the best-performing. In this environment, the portfolio posted strong positive results, gaining a total return of 5.13% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges), which outpaced the 4.10% return of its benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

The portfolio's performance was helped largely by our increased (but selective) use of lower-quality corporate bonds. An overweight to utilities and industrials also aided results. Although we maintained an overweight to asset-backed securities, we reduced that stake, specifically among manufactured housing bonds. The portfolio's results were helped further by our focus on high-quality, agency-backed multifamily issues in the commercial mortgage-backed bond sector, an area of the market that handily outperformed. After a tough third quarter, mortgage-backed bonds bounced back in the fourth quarter. The portfolio's blend of mortgage-backed bonds, including both pass-through securities and structured mortgages, provided solid returns throughout the period. Finally, the portfolio's position in Treasuries declined throughout the period, a fortuitous move given that Treasuries lagged so dramatically.

Risk Considerations

Investments by the portfolio in lower-rated bonds present greater risk to principal and income than investments in higher-quality securities. This portfolio invests in individual bonds whose yields and market values fluctuate so that your investment may be worth more or less than its original cost. Additionally, investing in foreign securities presents certain unique risks not associated with domestic investments, such as currency fluctuation and changes in political/economic conditions and market risks. All of these factors may result in greater share price volatility. Please see this portfolio's prospectus for specific details regarding its investments and risk profile.

A Treasury's guarantee relates only to the prompt payment of principal and interest and does not remove market risks if the investment is sold prior to maturity.

Credit quality ratings cited are the ratings of Moody's Investors Service, Inc. (Moody's) and Standard & Poor's Corporation (S&P), which represent these companies' opinions as to the quality of the securities they rate. Ratings are relative and subjective and are not absolute standards of quality. The portfolio's credit quality does not remove market risk.

The Lehman Brothers (LB) Aggregate Bond Index is an unmanaged, market-value-weighted measure of Treasury issues, agency issues, corporate issues and mortgage securities. Index returns assume reinvestment of all distributions and do not reflect fees or expenses. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

^a As required, effective January 1, 2001, the Portfolio has adopted the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and began amortizing premium on debt securities. In addition, paydowns on mortgage-backed securities which were included in realized gain/loss on investment transactions prior to January 1, 2001 are included as interest income. The effect of this change for the year ended December 31, 2001 was to decrease net investment income per share by $.01, increase net realized and unrealized gains and losses per share by $.01 and decrease the ratio of net investment income to average net assets from 5.54% to 5.46%. Per share, ratios and supplemental data for periods prior to January 1, 2001 have not been restated to reflect this change in presentation.
^b On June 18, 2001, the Portfolio implemented a 1 for 10 reverse stock split. Per share information, for the periods prior to December 31, 2001, has been restated to reflect the effect of the split. Shareholders received 1 share for every 10 shares owned and net asset value per share increased correspondingly.
^c Based on average shares outstanding during the period.
^d The amount of net realized and unrealized gain shown for a share outstanding for the period ending December 31, 2001 does not correspond with the aggregate net loss on investments for the period due to the timing of sales and repurchases of Portfolio shares in relation to fluctuating market values of the investments of the Portfolio.
^eThe portfolio turnover rate including mortgage dollar roll transactions was 265% for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

Scudder Global Blue Chip Portfolio

After three consecutive years of declines, global equities rebounded sharply in 2003. Initial uncertainty over the US-led war in Iraq weighed on stock prices in the first part of the year, but a swift victory paved the way for an impressive worldwide economic rebound. Amidst a very positive environment, the portfolio's total return was 29.13% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges), compared with the 33.11% return of the MSCI World Index. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

We continue to manage the portfolio by identifying the important long-term themes in the global economy and investing in companies that we believe will benefit as these themes unfold. For instance, we believe the largest companies in commoditized industries will emerge as the long-term winners, and the portfolio therefore owns a number of energy and basic materials stocks. These holdings performed very well during 2003. We also believe the continued risks in the global economy dictate holdings such as gold stocks though these more conservative holdings detracted from relative performance. We have reduced the portfolio's sizeable weighting in this area. While all themes yielded positive returns for the year, the portfolio's holdings in pharmaceuticals detracted the most from relative performance.

Other notable thematic shifts included our decision to take profits among the portfolio's most conservative securities and trim "Japan Restructuring." We reduced exposure to this theme based on declining risk/return prospects and a less favorable view toward exporters given the yen's appreciation versus the dollar. We continue to find value in Asia outside of Japan, primarily in companies with exposure to China's powerful economic growth.

Important: portfolio manager change

Management Summary December 31, 2003

Scudder Government Securities Portfolio

Uncertainties associated with the war in Iraq, combined with conflicting economic signals, weighed on the bond market during the first half of 2003. As 2003 progressed, convincing signs of a pickup in the US economy began to emerge, as well as economic data that indicated inflation would remain quiet. As fixed-income yields crept upward in late fall, investor inflows into mortgage-related securities increased substantially. This situation can mainly be attributed to the fact that the percentage of mortgage holders with a financial incentive to refinance their mortgages declined dramatically, from 70% in June to 30% by year-end.

For the year ended December 31, 2003, the portfolio posted a total return of 2.26% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges) compared with the 2.85% return of its benchmark, the Lehman Brothers GNMA Index. Early in the year, our strategy was to reduce the portfolio's prepayment exposure by purchasing lower-coupon mortgage-backed securities on a rolling forward basis, as well as mortgage pools with specific characteristics that afforded additional prepayment protection. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

Following the interest rate increases of summer and early fall, we felt that the ensuing slowdown in prepayments by mortgage holders would make higher-coupon mortgage securities very attractive. For this reason, the portfolio sold positions in 5% and 5.5% coupon GNMAs during the fourth quarter and purchased 6%, 6.5% and 8% coupon GNMAs. These issues performed very well, as supply was limited, the market was more heavily focused on shorter-duration instruments and investors flocked to the perceived yield advantage. The fund's result were held back primarily because of prepayments by mortgage holders and difficulties associated with timing our move into higher-yielding instruments.

^a As required, effective January 1, 2001, the Portfolio has adopted the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and began amortizing premium on debt securities. In addition, paydowns on mortgage-backed securities which were included in realized gain/loss on investment transactions prior to January 1, 2001 are included as interest income. The effect of this change for the year ended December 31, 2001 was to decrease net investment income per share by $.08, increase net realized and unrealized gains and losses per share by $.08 and decrease the ratio of net investment income to average net assets from 5.67% to 5.06%. Per share, ratios and supplemental data for periods prior to January 1, 2001 have not been restated to reflect this change in presentation.
^b On June 18, 2001, the Portfolio implemented a 1 for 10 reverse stock split. Per share information, for the periods prior to December 31, 2001, has been restated to reflect the effect of the split.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

Scudder Growth Portfolio

Positive economic news, better-than-expected corporate earnings, accommodative monetary policy and significant fiscal stimulus combined to create a vastly improved environment in 2003 which sent equity markets sharply higher. Scudder Growth Portfolio posted a strong positive total return of 24.71% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges). However, during a period in which smaller and lower-quality companies generally produced the best returns, our focus on larger, higher-quality companies caused the portfolio to trail the 29.75% return of its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index. The unmanaged index measures the performance of large companies with greater-than-average growth orientation compared with the overall market. The majority of last year's relative underperformance was a result of disappointing stock selection, though sector allocation had a marginally negative impact as well. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

Positioning within the information technology sector added to the year's performance from both a sector allocation and security selection perspective. In fact, the five largest contributors to the portfolio's 2003 return were all technology stocks. As with most highly cyclical sectors, technology companies made a strong showing last year. Therefore, the portfolio's overweight position within the sector was rewarded. Particular strength was visible in the semiconductor and computer/peripherals industries, as holdings Analog Devices, Inc. and EMC Corp. gained 91% and 110%, respectively.

The retail side of the consumer discretionary sector, however, proved to be a drag on performance. Longtime holding Kohl's Corp. declined nearly 20% last year after reporting disappointing same-store sales and earnings.

Finally, the portfolio's overweight position in energy detracted from annual performance. However, we are comfortable with this allocation, as we believe long-term growth opportunities exist in the sector, specifically in the energy equipment and services industry.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

Scudder High Income Portfolio

High-yield bonds delivered strong gains in 2003, capping the best year for the asset class since 1991. Returns were buoyed from more robust economic activity, improving fundamentals in the asset class and strong technical factors. In addition, high-yield companies showed improved financial positions as a result of cost-cutting and deleveraging. Lower-quality, higher-risk market segments generally provided the best performance. The portfolio produced a strong total return of 24.62% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges), but trailed the 27.94% return of its unmanaged benchmark, the CSFB High Yield Index. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

Early in the period, the portfolio had been positioned more conservatively due to our concerns regarding weak economic fundamentals, uncertainty around the war with Iraq (and a potential oil price shock), and the potential for retaliatory terrorist attacks. As a result, the portfolio remained underweight in lower-tier securities early in the year, and on average, throughout the period, which was a performance detractor. Most notably, the portfolio was initially underweight in securities rated CCC/split CCC and below - one of the top-performing credit-quality segments. However, as the year progressed our bottom-up analysis led us to take a larger position in the B-rated and CCC/split CCC-rated credit quality segments, which benefited performance in the later half of the year. On a sector basis, results were held back by an underweight position in some of the higher-beta industries that performed well during the year, including airline, utilities and cable/wireless video sectors. Among individual securities, positions in Tyco International, Ltd., Qwest Services Corp. and Georgia-Pacific Corp. aided returns. (Tyco International, Ltd. was no longer in the portfolio as of 12/31/03.)

Please read this portfolio's prospectus for specific details regarding its investments and risk profile.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

Scudder International Select Equity Portfolio

Global stock markets rallied during 2003 on the strength of a recovery in the global economy. The favorable environment helped the portfolio produce a positive total return of 29.83% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges). However, the portfolio lagged the 40.71% return of its benchmark, the MSCI EAFE^®+ EMF Index. The most important factor in the portfolio's underperformance was the fact that lower-quality companies - those with substantial debt and unsustainable business models - - performed exceptionally well as the improving environment prompted investors to take on more risk. The second reason for the portfolio's underperformance was its large-cap bias at a time when small-cap stocks led the way. The sector which presented the biggest challenge to us was financials. There, our focus on higher-quality banks was a negative at a time when more heavily indebted banks performed very well. Although our disciplined investment style did not work in this unusual environment, we continue to believe that an emphasis on quality will prove beneficial over the long term. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

On the positive side, performance was helped by the fact that the portfolio was underweight in consumer staples, which lagged as investors rotated into more aggressive names. The portfolio's position in the telecommunications sector, where many companies exhibited improving fundamentals, also helped performance.

From a positioning standpoint, we are positive on Asia, which we believe will benefit from stronger global growth. We are more cautious on Europe, where we feel the Euro's rise may hinder economic growth.

This may result in greater share price volatility. Please read this portfolio's prospectus for specific details regarding its investments and risk profile.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

Scudder Money Market Portfolio

From the events of September 11, 2001 to the corporate scandals that unfolded in 2002 and through the conclusion of major hostilities in Iraq, there had not been a long period of calm in which the US economy had a chance to recover from a series of shocks. Finally, last summer, following the Federal Reserve Board's 0.25 percentage point cut of the fed funds rate, the economy began to show signs of renewal. In the first half of 2003, our strategy of keeping the portfolio's purchases very short along the yield curve gave us the flexibility to make longer-term purchases at higher yields as the US economy began to gather steam and the yield curve began to steepen in subsequent months.

For the 12-month period ended December 31, 2003, the portfolio provided a total return of 0.72% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges) compared with the 0.44% average return for funds in the Lipper Money Market Funds category for the same period, according to Lipper Inc. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

As the economy continued to show signs of a pickup - and the yield curve continued to steepen in reaction to such news - the portfolio was purchasing higher-yielding four- to 12-month securities. In addition, it is currently employing a "ladder" approach, buying securities at different points of the yield curve to take advantage of steepness and diversify its holdings. Over the coming months, we will continue our insistence on the highest credit quality for the portfolio and will maintain our conservative investment strategies and standards.

A group of investment professionals is responsible for the day-to-day management of the portfolio. These investment professionals have a broad range of experience managing money market funds.

Performance is historical and does not guarantee future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance quoted. The product's most recent month-end performance will be available on scudder.com as of 3/31/04. Performance doesn't reflect charges and fees ("contract charges") associated with the separate account that invests in the portfolio or any variable life insurance policy or variable annuity contract for which the portfolio is an investment option. These charges and fees will reduce returns. The yield quotation more closely reflects the current earnings of the fund than the total return quotation.

Risk Considerations

An investment in this portfolio is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or by any other government agency. Although the portfolio seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the portfolio. Please read this portfolio's prospectus for specific details regarding its risk profile.

The Lipper Money Market Funds category includes funds that invest in high-quality financial instruments rated in the top two grades with dollar-weighted average maturities of less than 90 days and that intend to keep a constant net asset value. It is not possible to invest directly in a Lipper category.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

Scudder Small Cap Growth Portfolio

Scudder Small Cap Growth Portfolio posted a strong total return of 32.94% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges) for the 12 months ended December 31, 2003. Within the small-cap universe, a low-quality effect occurred, whereby the smallest of the small caps - the heavily discounted nonearners - drove a significant portion of the Russell 2000 Growth Index's annual 48.54% return; these securities outperformed the larger, more investable small-cap securities - the stocks we typically hold in the portfolio. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

From a sector standpoint, consumer staples was the only sector represented within the portfolio that produced better relative performance than the benchmark, while stock selection in health care and consumer discretionary delivered the biggest negative blows relative to the benchmark.

As evidenced by the portfolio's strong absolute performance, the majority of stocks in the portfolio rang in solid returns. Electronic components maker Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (a top-10 holding) was a top-contributing stock, as was financial services company CoStar Group, Inc. On the flip side, the bottom three detractors were securities we inherited from the previous investment team. As we repositioned the portfolio in the early part of 2003, we decided to exit these stocks and redeploy the assets.

Going into the new year, we worked closely as a team to position the portfolio to benefit from the continuing economic recovery. In terms of the stock market cycle, we feel that small caps still have the potential to outperform largecaps. While some segments of the small-cap market have reached fair value, we continue to find individual investment opportunities at good valuations through our bottom-up stock selection process.

Risk Considerations

This portfolio is subject to stock market risk, meaning stocks in the portfolio may decline in value for extended periods of time due to the activities and financial prospects of individual companies, or due to general market and economic conditions. Additionally, stocks of small companies involve greater risk than securities of larger, more-established companies, as they often have limited product lines, markets or financial resources and may be subject to more erratic and abrupt market movements. Finally, derivatives may be more volatile and less liquid than traditional securities and the portfolio could suffer losses on its derivatives positions. Please read this portfolio's prospectus for specific details regarding its investments and risk profile.

The Russell 2000 Growth Index is an unmanaged, capitalization-weighted index containing the growth stocks in the Russell 2000 Index. Index returns assume reinvestment of all distributions and do not reflect fees or expenses. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

Scudder Strategic Income Portfolio

Over the past 12 months, both high-yield debt and emerging markets debt provided solid performance for the portfolio. For the 12-month period ended December 31, 2003, the portfolio provided a total return of 7.85% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges). That compares with the portfolio benchmarks' returns of 28.82% for the JP Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Plus Index, 27.23% for the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master Cash Pay Only Index, 2.24% for the Lehman Brothers US Treasury Index and 14.91% for the Citigroup World Government Bond Index. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

High-yield bonds benefited from strong demand from risk-tolerant investors as investment-grade and Treasury bonds offered meager yields. The portfolio began the year with a credit-quality concentration in high-yield bonds which was tilted toward the higher-end of the spectrum. This strategy held back the performance of the portfolio's high-yield exposure as lower-quality credits provided the best returns during the year. As the year progressed, the portfolio's high-yield exposure shifted down the credit spectrum. Thus, the portfolio did benefit from lower-quality returns later in the year.

Within the emerging markets, Brazil and Russia performed well. As Brazil recovered, we turned our attention from global debt to local bonds, as our analysis indicated that local debt offered better value. While local debt did rally with the country overall, global debt continued to lead in terms of performance. Thus, this shift held back returns somewhat in emerging markets.

Risk Considerations

The portfolio invests in individual bonds whose yields and market values fluctuate so that your investment may be worth more or less than its original cost. Additionally, investments by the portfolio in lower-rated bonds present greater risk to principal and income than investments in higher-quality securities. Finally, investing in foreign securities presents certain unique risks not associated with domestic investments, such as currency fluctuation, political and economic changes and market risks. All of these factors may result in greater share price volatility. Please read this portfolio's prospectus for specific details regarding its investments and risk profile.

The JP Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Plus Index is an unmanaged foreign securities index of US dollar and other external-currency-denominated Brady bonds, loans, Eurobonds and local market debt instruments traded in emerging markets. The Merrill Lynch High Yield Master Cash Pay Only Index tracks the performance of below-investment-grade US dollar-denominated corporate bonds publicly issued in the United States domestic market. The Lehman Brothers US Treasury Index is an unmanaged index reflecting the performance of all public obligations and does not focus on one particular segment of the Treasury market. The Citigroup World Government Bond Index (formerly known as Salomon Smith Barney World Government Bond Index) is an unmanaged index comprised of government bonds from 18 developed countries including the US with maturities greater than one year. Index returns assume reinvestment of all distributions and do not reflect fees or expenses. It is not possible to invest directly into an index.

Performance Summary December 31, 2003

^a As required, effective January 1, 2001, the Portfolio has adopted the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and began amortizing premium on debt securities. In addition, paydowns on mortgage-backed securities which were included in realized gain/loss on investment transactions prior to January 1, 2001 are included as interest income. The effect of this change for the year ended December 31, 2001 was to decrease net investment income per share by $.04, increase net realized and unrealized gains and losses per share by $.04 and decrease the ratio of net investment income to average net assets from 5.16% to 4.76%.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

Scudder Technology Growth Portfolio

Technology was the surprise comeback kid in 2003. The portfolio had a strong total return of 46.84% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges) for the 12 months ended December 31, 2003, though it underperformed its benchmark, the Goldman Sachs Technology Index, which rose 54.18% for the period. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

On the positive side, the portfolio's holdings in the computers and peripherals subsector as well as the software subsector bore fruit. Looking at specific stock picks, an overweight position in computer storage provider EMC Corp. (a top-10 holding) reaped a healthy gain. In this case, we predicted early on that storage would do well, and events unfolded as expected. VERITAS Software Corp., a developer of storage management software, was another top contributor.

What hurt the portfolio most relative to the benchmark was a large underweight throughout the year in communications equipment - a subsector that more than doubled in value. We did increase the portfolio's weighting in this sector toward the end of the year, which helped neutralize this factor in the fourth quarter. Both sector allocation and stock selection in the semiconductor subsector also had a negative impact during the year.

Currently, we believe the portfolio is well-positioned to benefit from two developing trends. The first trend involves investors rotating out of speculative small-cap stocks that drove performance in 2003 and into the larger-cap, more established stocks favored by the portfolio. The second trend involves the strengthening in business confidence and companies' willingness to lay down money for new technology infrastructure.

Important: portfolio manager change

As of January 12, 2004 Ian Link and Anne Meisner assumed management duties for the portfolio.

Risk Considerations

Investments by the portfolio in small companies present greater risk of loss than investments in larger, more established companies. Concentration of the portfolio's investment in technology stocks may present a greater risk than investments in a more diversified portfolio. Investments by the portfolio in emerging technology companies present greater risk than investments in more established technology companies. This portfolio is non-diversified and can take larger positions in fewer companies, increasing its overall potential risk. Please read this portfolio's prospectus for specific details regarding its investments and risk profile.

The Goldman Sachs Technology Index is an unmanaged, capitalization-weighted index based on a universe of technology-related stocks. Index returns assume reinvestment of all distributions and do not reflect fees or expenses. It is not possible to invest directly into an index.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

Scudder Total Return Portfolio

Positive economic news and better-than-expected corporate earnings combined to create a positive backdrop for both stocks and corporate bonds during 2003. The portfolio's benchmarks, the Standard & Poor's 500 (S&P 500) index and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, returned 28.68% and 4.10%, respectively.

In this favorable environment, the portfolio delivered a strong total return of 18.10% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges). The equity portion of the portfolio benefited from the generally positive tone of the stock market in 2003. The strength of the portfolio's health care and technology holdings proved particularly helpful. However, investor concern over the strength of holiday sales led to underperformance by certain retailers in the portfolio. Performance on the fixed-income side was helped by our continued emphasis on corporates, particularly BBB-rated issues. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

The equity portion of the portfolio is positioned to benefit from further economic growth in 2004, as we continue to favor consumer and technology stocks. Energy stocks also remain overweighted, as we feel long-term growth opportunities exist in the sector. On the fixed-income side, where the portfolio remains overweight in corporates, we continue to emphasize fundamental credit research and individual security selection.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

SVS Davis Venture Value Portfolio

The stock market rebounded sharply in 2003 after several years of negative returns by the Standard & Poor's 500 (S&P 500) index. Nearly all segments of the stock market gained ground. The portfolio posted strong returns as well. For the 12 months ended December 31, 2003, Class A shares returned a total return of 29.84% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges) and outperformed the 28.68% return posted by the S&P 500 index. The Russell 1000 Value index had a return of 30.03% for the one year period ending December 31, 2003. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

The investment strategy we employ in managing the portfolio is based on research. We perform extensive research to help us locate stocks of companies with expanding earnings at prices that we believe are trading at attractive values. We seek to hold portfolio investments for the long term.

Our primary focus is on choosing individual stocks that meet our investment criteria, rather than on sector positioning. In 2003, our stock selection contributed more to relative performance than did the portfolio's sector positioning. With that said, three of the portfolio's overweight sector positions - financial services, consumer non-durables and energy - posted strong performance and outperformed those respective S&P 500 sectors.

Some of the strongest performing stocks from the portfolio's top-10 holdings were: Progressive Corp., a financial services company, Tyco International Ltd., a capital goods company and HSBC Holdings PLC, another financial services company. Weaker top-10 holdings were American International Group, Inc. and Berkshire Hathaway, Inc. While these two holdings gained ground in the period, their returns trailed the return of the S&P 500 index.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

SVS Dreman Financial Services Portfolio

Financial stocks posted strong gains in 2003, keeping pace with the broader stock market. The portfolio posted a total return of 28.13% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges), underperforming the 31.03% return of its benchmark, the Standard & Poor's Financial Index. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

Major regional banks and savings & loans remain one of the portfolio's largest industry positions. The portfolio's overweight in this area relative to the benchmark, along with the sector's positive results this year was a primary source of returns. We remained bullish on these stocks due to their strong historical performance and their minimal exposure to risky foreign debt. Additionally, most of these financial institutions generated substantial earnings from fees and services as well as from their loan businesses, which helped their bottom lines and made them potentially less susceptible to wild swings when interest rates change direction. One of the top performers in this area was Washington Mutual, Inc., a top-10 portfolio holding.

On the other hand, another top-10 holding, Freddie Mac, was a primary detractor from performance. The stock declined last summer after its board of directors dismissed three senior leaders upon learning that the company's earnings had been understated. While the stock has made up much of its lost ground, it still struggles due to scrutiny in the media. We believe this is a short-term issue and we remain committed to the stock, which has a lower price-to-earnings ratio and faster growth rate than many top-growth companies.

Despite their strong performance this year, we believe that many financial stocks remain undervalued. As always, we will remain true to our contrarian philosophy of investing, in hopes of adding more value for shareholders over time.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

SVS Dreman High Return Equity Portfolio

The stock market posted strong gains in 2003. Stocks rallied on the end of active combat in Iraq, the passage of a federal stimulus package, improving economic news and growing corporate earnings. We're pleased to announce that the portfolio posted a total return of 32.04% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges) in 2003, outperforming the 28.68% return of its benchmark, the Standard & Poor's 500 index. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

The portfolio's retail and tobacco stocks added most to portfolio returns this year. Electronics retailer Best Buy Co., Inc. home improvement retailer Home Depot, Inc. and office supplies retailer Staples, Inc. were among the primary contributors. We added these holdings after they declined based on what we believed to be temporary issues. Each stock rose substantially throughout the year. After some extreme volatility, fears of the potential impact of litigation against big tobacco companies subsided and led to a strong rally in Altria Group, Inc., one of the portfolio's largest holdings, and RJ Reynolds Tobacco Holdings, Inc.

Pharmaceutical companies struggled, and the portfolio's overweight position hurt its relative performance. We remain confident, however, that these companies will improve over the longer term. Each has strong cash flows to portfolio research and development, capable marketing arms, and large sales forces to help drive earnings. Mortgage provider Freddie Mac was the primary detractor from performance. The stock plummeted in June 2003, after its financials came under scrutiny and it was revealed that the company had understated earnings. It has since made up much of its lost ground, but was down for the full year.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

SVS Dreman Small Cap Value Portfolio

Stocks, especially small cap stocks, posted strong gains in 2003. The rally was ignited by the end of active combat in Iraq, and sustained by the passage of a federal stimulus package, improving economic news and growing corporate earnings. The portfolio posted a total return of 42.15% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges) in 2003 versus a 46.03% return of its benchmark, the Russell 2000 Value Index. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

Independent power producers, financials and energy stocks were primary contributors to performance. Reliant Resources, Inc. and Williams Cos. (not in the portfolio as of 12/31/03) rallied strongly as lower interest rates helped them overcome liquidity issues. We sold Williams from the portfolio as it appreciated into the mid-cap universe. An overweight position in banks versus the benchmark and strong individual financial stock performance also helped. Energy stocks contributed, with natural gas producers advancing solidly.

While the portfolio's overweight position in health care gained, the sector's return was lower than the broader small-cap market. Our decision to underweight the consumer discretionary sector also hurt relative performance. We made this decision because we were skeptical that consumer spending would remain strong. Our assumption was incorrect, and consumers continued to spend.

We have built a portfolio focused on companies that we believe are financially solid but that are trading at low prices relative to their earnings (P/E), book value and cash flow. In anything other than a technology-led market rally, we believe this portfolio is poised to outperform its benchmark.

Risk Considerations

This portfolio is subject to stock market risk. Stocks of small companies involve greater risk than securities of larger, more-established companies, as they often have limited product lines, markets or financial resources and may be exposed to more erratic and abrupt market movements. The portfolio may focus its investments on certain economic sectors, thereby increasing its vulnerability to any single economic, political or regulatory development. This may result in greater share price volatility. Please read this portfolio's prospectus for specific details regarding its investments and risk profile.

The Russell 2000 Value Index measures the performance of small companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values than the overall market. Index returns assume reinvestment of all distributions and do not reflect fees or expenses. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

SVS Eagle Focused Large Cap Growth Portfolio

The portfolio delivered a total return of 26.54% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges) for calendar year 2003, trailing its benchmark Russell 1000 Growth Index, which was up 29.75%. The unmanaged index measures the performance of large companies with greater-than-average growth orientation compared with the overall market. Most of the underperformance came in the second quarter, which we entered somewhat defensively positioned as we awaited more confirmation of the long-anticipated economic recovery. As the year progressed, and we became convinced the recovery was for real, we began to make up ground on the benchmark by repositioning the portfolio to take advantage of an improving economic climate. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

We saw relative outperformance versus the benchmark from good stock selection and an overweight position in the consumer discretionary sector as well as good stock selection in financial services. We saw relative underperformance versus the benchmark from poor stock selection in both technology and health care. Our biggest winners for the year in the consumer discretionary sector include Cendant Corp. and Home Depot, Inc. In financial services, Citigroup, Inc. and American Express (not in the porfolio as of 12/31/03) were our two biggest positive contributors. On the flip side, LSI Logic Corp. in technology and Merck & Co., Inc., in health care were our biggest disappointments.

US economic fundamentals are improving as the stimulus from tax cuts, increased government spending and low interest rates continue to boost corporate growth. The majority of companies in which we invest currently have a unique combination of operating leverage and capital spending discipline that we believe will enable them to produce strong earnings growth going forward.

The portfolio performed well in 2003, posting a total return of 32.87% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges), versus a 28.68% return by the Standard & Poor's 500 (S&P 500) index. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

The value sleeve gained, helped most by its tobacco and retail stocks. After some extreme volatility, fears of the potential impact of litigation against big tobacco companies subsided and led to a strong rally in Altria Group, Inc., one of the sleeve's largest holdings and RJ Reynolds Tobacco Holdings, Inc. The value sleeve's retailers - Best Buy Co., Inc., Home Depot, Inc. and Staples, Inc. - also posted strong gains as they added market share in their respective consumer niches. Mortgage provider Freddie Mac was the primary detractor from performance. The stock plummeted in June, after its financials came under scrutiny and it was revealed that the company had understated earnings. It has since made up much of its lost ground but was down for the full year. Pharmaceutical stocks also hurt performance. Dreman remains committed to both Freddie Mac and the value sleeve's pharmaceutical stocks, as he believes that their setbacks are temporary.

Information technology, consumer discretionary and financials were major contributors to the growth sleeve's performance. The growth sleeve's semiconductor and semiconductor equipment stocks improved performance. Semiconductor stocks performed exceptionally well, as many companies have improved their competitive position by reducing costs. Financials also gained with the strongest performance coming from capital markets stocks such as Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc.. In the consumer area Univision Communications, Inc., Starbucks Corp. and Tiffany & Co. advanced.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

SVS Index 500 Portfolio

For the 12 months ended December 31, 2003, the portfolio produced a total return of 27.93% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges), compared with a 28.68% return for the benchmark. In a welcome turnabout from the past three years, US equities gained ground for the 12 months ended December 31, 2003. During the first quarter, the Standard & Poor's 500 (S&P 500) index declined, as fears surrounding the coming war with Iraq heightened and economic activity slowed. During the second quarter, the S&P 500 index experienced its largest single quarterly gain in more than four years. In addition to positive corporate earnings announcements, the equity markets were strengthened by a low-interest-rate environment, declining bond investment yields, a $350 billion US tax cut, an accommodative Federal Reserve Board and the conclusion of major military operations in Iraq. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

Given that the portfolio tracks or mirrors the index, the following index discussion also applies to the portfolio. Buoyed by robust corporate earnings, the S&P 500 index continued its advance during the second half of 2003. The US economy exhibited signs of improvement, as evidenced by the continual upward revisions to the gross domestic product growth rate, and business spending increased sharply, with significant increases in technology spending. Information technology and financials made the greatest contributions to the index's annual returns. The only sector to generate single-digit returns for the year was telecommunication services. The best annual total returns among the S&P 500 index stocks came from Avaya, Inc., Williams Companies, Inc. and Dynegy, Inc. The worst-performing individual stocks based on total return included Winn-Dixie Stores, Inc., Cresset Precious Metal and Mirant. (The latter two stocks were not in the portfolio as of 12/31/03.) There were nine additions to and deletions from the S&P 500 index for the year.

Risk Considerations

The portfolio may not be able to mirror the S&P 500 index closely enough to track its performance for several reasons, including the portfolio's cost to buy and sell securities, as well as the flow of money into and out of the portfolio. This portfolio is subject to stock market risk, meaning stocks in the portfolio may decline in value for extended periods of time due to the activities and financial prospects of individual companies, or due to general market and economic conditions. Additionally, derivatives may be more volatile and less liquid than traditional securities and the portfolio could suffer losses on its derivatives positions. Please read this portfolio's prospectus for specific details regarding its investments and risk profile.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

SVS INVESCO Dynamic Growth Portfolio

The financial markets experienced volatility in the first quarter of 2003 as geopolitical tensions escalated and combat began in Iraq. However, by the second quarter, the major stock indices began a steep climb, and they finished the year with significant gains. For the first time in three years, the major equity markets posted gains.

Given the markets' renewed appetite for more aggressive investments, the portfolio's emphasis on mid-cap growth stocks worked to its advantage. The portfolio enjoyed a total return of 35.53% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges) in 2003, versus a 42.71% return for its benchmark, the Russell Midcap Growth Index. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

Throughout the year, we increased the portfolio's exposure to cyclical technology, industrials and wireless telecommunications stocks to achieve as much participation in the rally as possible, given our investment style. We also increased exposure to consumer discretionary stocks, particularly restaurants and higher-growth leisure companies. In health care, good stock selection benefited the portfolio, particularly in areas such as biotech and specialty pharmaceuticals. Information technology had the largest positive impact on the portfolio, and it garnered particularly good performance from software stocks such as VERITAS Software Corp. and Amdocs Ltd. While telecommunications services performed well for the portfolio, several stocks within the industry detracted from performance, including AT&T Wireless and Sprint Corp. (Not in the portfolio as of 12/31/03.) In 2004, we are confident about the portfolio's positioning based on continued cyclical improvement in the economy.

Risk Considerations

Stocks of medium-sized companies involve greater risk as they often have limited product lines, markets, or financial resources and may be sensitive to erratic and abrupt market movements more so than securities of larger, more-established companies.

Performance Summary December 31, 2003

SVS INVESCO Dynamic Growth Portfolio

All performance shown is historical and does not guarantee future results. Investment return and principal value fluctuate with changing market conditions so that, when redeemed, shares may be worth more or less then their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. The product's most recent month-end performance will be available on scudder.com as of 3/31/04. Performance doesn't reflect charges and fees ("contract charges") associated with the separate account that invests in the Portfolio or any variable life insurance policy or variable annuity contract for which the Portfolio is an investment option. These charges and fees will reduce returns.

Stocks of medium-sized companies involve greater risk as they often have limited product lines, markets, or financial resources and may be sensitive to erratic and abrupt market movements more so than securities of larger, more-established companies. Additionally, the Portfolio may also focus its investments on certain industry sectors, thereby increasing its vulnerability to any single industry or regulatory development. All of these factors may result in greater share price volatility. Please read this Portfolio's prospectus for specific details regarding its investments and risk profile.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

SVS Janus Growth and Income Portfolio

For the first time since 1999, the major US stock market indices ended the fiscal year with gains. For the 12 months ended December 31, 2003, the portfolio gained 24.37% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges), while the Russell 1000 Growth Index and the Standard & Poor's 500 (S&P 500) index, advanced 29.75% and 28.68%, respectively. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

The portfolio is managed for shareholders who want long-term exposure to the stock market yet some potential downside protection in difficult times. "Growth and Income" is an apt description. Common growth stocks usually represent 80-90% of the holdings, while fixed-income and convertible securities represent between 10-20%. When the market is strong, the growth stocks should potentially drive performance, as they did this year; and during periods of weakness, the more income-oriented investments are designed to lend support.

The portfolio's best performer was global financial services powerhouse Citigroup. Tyco International, the Bermuda-based holding company with a range of businesses, also helped boost the portfolio's returns as did cable and media property holding company Liberty Media Corp. Meanwhile, analog- and mixed-signal circuit maker Maxim Integrated Products, whose chips power everything from cell phones to personal computers to medical equipment, moved ahead along with commercial and consumer lender CIT Group.

Some stocks experienced setbacks during the period. Among the most significant were The Stanley Works, which manufactures tools and doors, and defense contractor General Dynamics. SBC Communications, a diversified telecommunications company, also weighed on results as did discount broker Charles Schwab and German car maker Bayerishe Motoren-Werke, better known as BMW. We eliminated these holdings from the portfolio.

Important: portfolio manager change

As of January 1, 2004 Minyoung (Min) Sohn assumed management duties for the portfolio. He was previously an assistant portfolio manager on the portfolio.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

SVS Janus Growth Opportunities Portfolio

For the 12 months ended December 31, 2003, the portfolio delivered a total return of 26.97% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges), while the Russell 1000 Growth Index delivered 29.75%. After hitting a trough in the months leading up to the Iraq war, both the market and consumer confidence bounced back sharply by the time the hostilities began in mid-March. Later, signs that the manufacturing sector was emerging from its slump and a tax-cut-driven increase in consumer spending also lifted investors' spirits. As the fiscal year came to a close, stocks added to their gains, fueled by an acceleration of quarterly earnings and better-than-expected economic growth. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

We focus on the fundamentals of individual businesses. However, certain sectors can affect the portfolio's performance. For example, information technology was by far the most significant contributor to absolute performance. The portfolio's position in the financials sector also aided results. Meanwhile, the portfolio's investments in industrials and consumer staples were its two weakest-performing groups. With key data points and anecdotal evidence pointing to an improving business environment, we increased the portfolio's growth bias, an area which performed strongly during the period. We also maintained a strict sell discipline as we managed individual positions in light of each company's risk profile and valuation. That said, our trims and sales during the period can be characterized by both risk-reduction as well as profit-taking efforts. In turn, we redeployed some of those assets in what we consider to be companies that are more tuned in to an improving economic picture.

Biotechnology firm Genentech, Inc. rose handsomely to become the portfolio's top performer. This was followed by networking giant Cisco Systems, Inc. and investment bank Morgan Stanley. Certain stocks did experience significant headwinds during the period, including defense contractor General Dynamics and Automatic Data Processing, a provider of payroll services (neither were in the portfolio as of 12/31/03).

While we certainly keep an eye on the macroeconomic picture, we believe it is the detailed financial modeling and creative research that gives us the edge when it comes to creating a collection of businesses with favorable risk/reward profiles.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

SVS MFS Strategic Value Portfolio

In 2003, the portfolio provided a total return of 26.74% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges). This compares with a return of 30.03% over the same period for its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

An overweighting and stock selection in health care and stock selection in the energy sector were key factors in the portfolio's relative underperformance. Pharmaceutical stock Schering-Plough Corp. declined on announcements of lower earnings. Energy companies Noble Corp., GlobalSantaFe Corp. and Cooper Cameron Corp. also hurt relative performance as concerns arose on the sustainability of natural gas prices and the lack of capital spending in the industry.

Retailers and utilities and communications were the portfolio's strongest-performing sectors. Sears was the biggest contributor to positive performance in the retail sector. The stock rallied after selling its credit card division at a very attractive price and using the proceeds to buy back some of its own stock. Home Depot, Inc. benefited from a series of strong sales figures, an exclusive arrangement with John Deere, the remodeling of many of its stores and from a newly expanded appliance business. Calpine Corp. performed well in the utilities and communication sector as its stock rose on the news that it had reached an agreement to roll over its bank lines and had completed a $1.8 billion debt deal. AT&T Wireless Services, Inc. also helped performance, as the company boosted sales and reduced costs. The portfolio was also helped by FleetBoston Financial Corp., which rose following the news that Bank of America intended to acquire the company.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

SVS Oak Strategic Equity Portfolio

The portfolio provided a strong total return of 49.78% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges) and far outpaced its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index, which rose 29.75% for the period. The index measures the performance of large companies with greater-than-average growth orientation compared with the overall market. Many of the index sectors posted double-digit gains for the year. Economically sensitive areas including information technology, materials, consumer discretionary, and industrials gained 28% or more. Only the telecommunications services sector declined for the year, due to industry-specific issues. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

For the portfolio, technology shares enjoyed the greatest degree of relative outperformance, highlighted by semiconductors and networking stocks, many of which more than doubled. Financials also did well after starting the year off slowly. Those financial stocks with sensitivity to the markets generally posted the largest gains. Our health care positions tended to lag the overall market, consistent with what one would expect in the earlier stages of a cyclical economic recovery. As the cyclical recovery stabilizes into a secular growth period, health care should reverse its recent underperformance.

While we tweak our portfolios each year, we are generally where we want to be. Given the growth of capitalism around the globe and the competition that should follow suit, we remain focused on those sectors that have a high degree of innovation or sustainable relative cost advantages. Innovation in terms of new products or processes will be one of the few ways for companies to generate sustained, above-average profit growth in the current economic climate.

Consistent with this focus on innovation, we have our investments focused on three areas of the economy - technology, financial services and health care. These sectors represent what we believe to be the best of what America has to offer the rest of the world. In many cases, nearly half of the revenues and profits of our holdings come from growing underpenetrated overseas markets. And the innovation rate continues. With regards to economic recoveries, these sectors have also tended to outperform on a longer-term basis following an economic recovery. This stands in contrast to areas like energy and materials that do well early in a recovery but fade relatively quickly.

Management Summary December 31, 2003

SVS Turner Mid Cap Growth Portfolio

After three consecutive years of losses in the US equity markets, stocks delivered significant gains during 2003. A broad-based rally began in mid-March, spurred on by low interest rates, strong consumer activity and the belief that the recovering economy would revive corporate earnings. Tax relief, strong economic data and demonstrable growth in corporate profits boosted investor confidence and sustained the rally through the fourth quarter. For the year, the portfolio recorded a total return of 48.49% (Class A shares, unadjusted for contract charges), outperforming the 42.71% gain posted by the Russell Midcap Growth Index. The unmanaged, capitalization-weighted index represents medium and medium/small companies in the Russell 1000 Index chosen for their growth orientation. Please see the following page for standardized performance as of December 31, 2003.

Holdings in the traditional growth sectors of technology, consumer discretionary and health care contributed the most to performance for the year. Specific areas of strength in technology included packaged software and telecommunication equipment companies. Bright spots in the consumer discretionary sector included retailers Coach, Inc. and Chico's FAS, Inc., and cruise line operator Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. In health care, the portfolio's holdings in biotechnology, managed health care and pharmaceuticals contributed to results for the year. The portfolio's holdings in the autos and transportation and utilities sectors, specifically companies in the airlines and wireless communications industries, hurt performance results for the year.

We believe a rebound in corporate spending, low interest rates and an improving outlook for employment will have a favorable impact on economic activity and should sustain economic growth. We continue to focus on investing in companies that are best positioned to benefit from improving trends and to deliver long-term earnings growth.

Notes to Financial Statements

A. Significant Accounting Policies

Scudder Variable Series II (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end, diversified management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust offers twenty-seven portfolios (the "portfolio(s)"). During the period, Scudder Investment Grade Bond Portfolio changed its name to Scudder Fixed Income Portfolio.

Multiple Classes of Shares of Beneficial Interest. The Trust offers two classes of shares (Class A shares and Class B shares). Sales of Class B shares are subject to Rule 12b-1 fees under the 1940 Act, and effective May 1, 2003 are subject to record keeping fees, equal to an annual rate of 0.25% and up to 0.15%, respectively, of the average daily net assets of the Class B shares of the applicable Portfolio. Class A shares are not subject to such fees.

Investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses, and certain portfolio-level expenses and expense reductions, if any, are borne pro rata on the basis of relative net assets by the holders of all classes of shares except that each class bears certain expenses unique to that class (including the applicable 12b-1 fee and record keeping fee). Differences in class-level expenses may result in payment of different per share dividends by class. All shares have equal rights with respect to voting subject to class-specific arrangements.

The Trust's financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which require the use of management estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The policies described below are followed consistently by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements.

Security Valuation. Investments are stated at value determined as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange on each day the exchange is open for trading. Equity securities are valued at the most recent sale price reported on the exchange (US or foreign) or over-the-counter market on which the security is traded most extensively. Securities for which no sales are reported are valued at the calculated mean between the most recent bid and asked quotations on the relevant market or, if a mean cannot be determined, at the most recent bid quotation.

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services approved by the Trustees of the Portfolios. If the pricing services are unable to provide valuations, the securities are valued at the most recent bid quotation or evaluated price, as applicable, obtained from one or more broker-dealers. Such services may use various pricing techniques which take into account appropriate factors such as yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other data, as well as broker quotes.

Money market instruments purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less, maturing at par, are valued at amortized cost. Investments in open-end investments companies and Scudder Cash Management QP Trust are valued at their net asset value each business day.

Securities and other assets for which market quotations are not readily available or for which the above valuation procedures are deemed not to reflect fair value are valued in a manner that is intended to reflect their fair value as determined in accordance with procedures approved by the Trustees.

Foreign Currency Translations. The books and records of the Trust are maintained in US dollars. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into US dollars at the prevailing exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses are translated into US dollars at the prevailing exchange rates on the respective dates of the transactions.

Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net gains and losses between trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the disposition of forward foreign currency exchange contracts and foreign currencies and the difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and the US dollar amount actually received. That portion of both realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed but is included with net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investment securities.

Repurchase Agreements. The portfolios may enter into repurchase agreements with certain banks and broker-dealers whereby the portfolios, through their custodian or sub-custodian bank, receive delivery of the underlying securities, the amount of which at the time of purchase and each subsequent business day is required to be maintained at such a level that the value is equal to at least the principal amount of the repurchase price plus accrued interest. The custodian bank holds the collateral in a separate account until the agreement matures. If the value of the securities falls below the principal amount of the repurchase agreement plus accrued interest, the financial institution deposits additional collateral by the following business day. If the financial institution either fails to deposit the required additional collateral or fails to repurchase the securities as agreed, the portfolios have the right to sell the securities and recover any resulting loss from the financial institution. If the financial institution enters into bankruptcy, the portfolios' claims on the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.

Options. An option contract is a contract in which the writer of the option grants the buyer of the option the right to purchase from (call option), or sell to (put option), the writer a designated instrument at a specified price within a specified period of time. Certain options, including options on indices, will require cash settlement by the portfolio if the option is exercised. The portfolios may enter into option contracts in order to hedge against potential adverse price movements in the value of portfolio assets; as a temporary substitute for selling selected investments; to lock in the purchase price of a security or currency which it expects to purchase in the near future; as a temporary substitute for purchasing selected investments; and to enhance potential gain.

The liability representing the portfolio's obligation under an exchange traded written option or investment in a purchased option is valued at the last sale price or, in the absence of a sale, the mean between the closing bid and asked prices or at the most recent asked price (bid for purchased options) if no bid and asked price are available. Over-the-counter written or purchased options are valued using dealer-supplied quotations. Gain or loss is recognized when the option contract expires or is closed.

If the portfolio writes a covered call option, the portfolio foregoes, in exchange for the premium, the opportunity to profit during the option period from an increase in the market value of the underlying security above the exercise price. If the portfolio writes a put option it accepts the risk of a decline in the value of the underlying security below the exercise price. Over-the-counter options have the risk of the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. The portfolio's maximum exposure to purchased options is limited to the premium initially paid. In addition, certain risks may arise upon entering into option contracts including the risk that an illiquid secondary market will limit the portfolio's ability to close out an option contract prior to the expiration date and that a change in the value of the option contract may not correlate exactly with changes in the value of the securities or currencies hedged.

Futures Contracts. A futures contract is an agreement between a buyer or seller and an established futures exchange or its clearinghouse in which the buyer or seller agrees to take or make a delivery of a specific amount of a financial instrument at a specified price on a specific date (settlement date). The portfolios may enter into futures contracts as a hedge against anticipated interest rate, currency or equity market changes and for duration management, risk management and return enhancement purposes.

Upon entering into a futures contract, the portfolio is required to deposit with a financial intermediary an amount ("initial margin") equal to a certain percentage of the face value indicated in the futures contract. Subsequent payments ("variation margin") are made or received by the portfolio dependent upon the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security and are recorded for financial reporting purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the portfolio. When entering into a closing transaction, the portfolio will realize a gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the futures contract to sell and the futures contract to buy. Futures contracts are valued at the most recent settlement price.

Certain risks may arise upon entering into futures contracts, including the risk that an illiquid secondary market will limit the portfolio's ability to close out a futures contract prior to the settlement date and that a change in the value of a futures contract may not correlate exactly with the changes in the value of the securities or currencies hedged. When utilizing futures contracts to hedge, the portfolio gives up the opportunity to profit from favorable price movements in the hedged positions during the term of the contract.

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts. A forward foreign currency exchange contract (forward currency contract) is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at the settlement date at a negotiated rate. The portfolios may enter into forward currency contracts in order to hedge its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates on its foreign currency denominated portfolio holdings and to facilitate transactions in foreign currency denominated securities.

Forward currency contracts are valued at the prevailing forward exchange rate of the underlying currencies and unrealized gain (loss) is recorded daily. Sales and purchases of forward currency contracts having the same settlement date and broker are offset and any gain (loss) is realized on the date of offset; otherwise, gain (loss) is realized on settlement date. Realized and unrealized gains and losses which represent the difference between the value of a forward currency contract to buy and a forward currency contract to sell are included in net realized and unrealized gain (loss) from foreign currency related transactions.

Certain risks may arise upon entering into forward currency contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Additionally, when utilizing forward currency contracts to hedge, the portfolio gives up the opportunity to profit from favorable exchange rate movements during the term of the contract.

Mortgage Dollar Rolls. The Scudder Fixed Income Portfolio, Scudder Government Securities Portfolio and Scudder Total Return Portfolio entered into mortgage dollar rolls in which each portfolio sells to a bank or broker/dealer (the "counterparty") mortgage-backed securities for delivery in the current month and simultaneously contracts to repurchase similar, but not identical, securities on a fixed date. The counterparty receives all principal and interest payments, including prepayments, made on the security while it is the holder. Each portfolio receives compensation as consideration for entering into the commitment to repurchase. The compensation is paid in the form of a lower price for the security upon its repurchase, or alternatively, a fee. Mortgage dollar rolls may be renewed with a new sale and repurchase price and a cash settlement made at each renewal without physical delivery of the securities subject to the contract.

Mortgage dollar rolls may be treated for purposes of the 1940 Act as borrowings by each portfolio because they involve the sale of a security coupled with an agreement to repurchase. A mortgage dollar roll involves costs to each portfolio. For example, while each portfolio receives compensation as consideration for agreeing to repurchase the security, each portfolio forgoes the right to receive all principal and interest payments while the counterparty holds the security. These payments to the counterparty may exceed the compensation received by each portfolio, thereby effectively charging each portfolio interest on its borrowings. Further, although each portfolio can estimate the amount of expected principal prepayment over the term of the mortgage dollar roll, a variation in the actual amount of prepayment could increase or decrease the cost of each portfolio's borrowing.

Certain risks may arise upon entering into mortgage dollar rolls from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their commitments. Additionally, the value of such securities may change adversely before each portfolio is able to repurchase them. There can be no assurance that each portfolio's use of the cash that it receives from a mortgage dollar roll will provide a return that exceeds its borrowing costs.

When-Issued/Delayed Delivery Securities. Several of the portfolios may purchase securities with delivery or payment to occur at a later date beyond the normal settlement period. At the time the portfolio enters into a commitment to purchase a security, the transaction is recorded and the value of the security is reflected in the net asset value. The price of such security and the date when the security will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The value of the security may vary with market fluctuations. No interest accrues to the portfolio until payment takes place. At the time the portfolio enters into this type of transaction it is required to segregate cash or other liquid assets at least equal to the amount of the commitment.

Certain risks may arise upon entering into when-issued or delayed delivery securities from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors. Additionally, losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities.

Federal Income Taxes. The portfolios' policy is to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable and tax-exempt income to its shareholders. Accordingly, the portfolios paid no federal income taxes and no federal income tax provision was required.

For the period from November 1, 2003 through December 31, 2003, the following portfolios incurred approximate net realized capital losses as follows:

Portfolio	Net Realized Capital Loss ($)
Scudder Aggressive Growth Portfolio	11,000
Scudder Government Securities Portfolio	376,000
Scudder High Income Portfolio	1,859,000
Scudder International Select Equity Portfolio	564,000

SVS Janus Growth and Income Portfolio	535,000
SVS Janus Growth Opportunities Portfolio	48,000
SVS Oak Strategic Equity Portfolio	3,256,000

As permitted by tax regulations, the portfolios intend to elect to defer these losses and treat them as arising in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004.

Distribution of Income and Gains. Distributions of net investment income, if any, for all portfolios except the Scudder Money Market Portfolio, are made annually. Net realized gains from investment transactions, in excess of available capital loss carryforwards, would be taxable to the portfolio if not distributed and, therefore, will be distributed to shareholders at least annually. All of the net investment income of the Scudder Money Market Portfolio is declared as a daily dividend and is distributed to shareholders monthly.

The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gains distributions are determined annually in accordance with federal tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. As a result, net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such period. Accordingly, a portfolio may periodically make reclassifications among certain of its capital accounts without impacting the net asset value of the portfolio.

At December 31, 2003, the portfolios' components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Portfolio	Undistributed ordinary income ($)	Undistributed net long-term capital gains ($)	Capital loss carryforwards ($)	Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments ($)

* For tax purposes short-term capital gains distributions are considered ordinary income distributions.

Expenses. Expenses arising in connection with a specific portfolio are allocated to that portfolio. Trust expenses are allocated between the portfolios in proportion to their relative net assets.

Other. Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date plus one basis for daily net asset value calculations. However, for financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are reported on trade date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date net of foreign withholding taxes. Certain dividends from foreign securities may be recorded subsequent to the ex-dividend date as soon as the portfolio is informed of such dividends. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are recorded on an identified cost basis. All discounts and premiums are accreted/amortized for both tax and financial reporting purposes for all portfolios, with the exception of securities bought in default.

For Scudder Money Market Portfolio, the Advisor agreed to waive 0.15% of the 12b-1 fee for the period January 1, 2003 through April 30, 2003.

Trustees' Fees and Expenses. The portfolios pay each Trustee not affiliated with the Advisor retainer fees plus specified amounts for attended board and committee meetings.

Scudder Cash Management QP Trust. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the SEC, the portfolios may invest in the Scudder Cash Management QP Trust (the "QP Trust") and other affiliated funds managed by the Advisor. The QP Trust seeks to provide as high a level of current income as is consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity. The QP Trust does not pay the Advisor a management fee for the affiliated funds' investments in the QP Trust.

D. Investing in High Yield Securities

Investing in high yield securities may involve greater risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in US Government bonds and other high quality fixed-income securities. These securities are non-investment grade securities, often referred to as "junk bonds". Economic downturns may disrupt the high yield market and impaired the ability of issuers to repay principal and interest. Also, an increase in interest rates would likely have an adverse impact on the value of such obligations. Moreover, high yield securities may be less liquid due to the extent that there is no established retail secondary market and because of a decline in the value of such securities.

E. Investing in Emerging Markets

Investing in emerging markets may involve special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in the United States of America. These risks include revaluation of currencies, high rates of inflation, repatriation restrictions on income and capital, and future adverse political, social and economic developments. Moreover, securities issued in these markets may be less liquid, subject to government ownership controls, delayed settlements and their prices more volatile than those of comparable securities in the United States of America.

F. Expense Off-Set Arrangements

The portfolios have entered into arrangements with their custodian whereby credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce a portion of the portfolio's expenses. During the year ended December 31, 2003, the portfolios' custodian fees were reduced under these arrangements as follows:

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Trust'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. 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 and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2003, 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 each of the portfolios of the Scudder Variable Series II at December 31, 2003, the results of their operations for the year then ended, and the changes in their net assets and their financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

ITEM 2.         CODE OF ETHICS.

As of the end of the period, December 31, 2003, Scudder Variable Series has
adopted a code of ethics, as defined in Item 2 of Form N-CSR, that applies to
its President and Treasurer and its Chief Financial Officer. A copy of the code
of ethics is filed as an exhibit to this Form N-CSR.

ITEM 3.         AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT.

The Fund's Board of Directors/Trustees has determined that the Fund has at least
one "audit committee financial expert" serving on its audit committee: Mr.
Donald L. Dunaway. This audit committee member is "independent," meaning that he
is not an "interested person" of the Fund (as that term is defined in Section
2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940) and he does not accept any
consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the Fund (except in the
capacity as a Board or committee member).

An "audit committee financial expert" is not an "expert" for any purpose,
including for purposes of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as a result
of being designated as an "audit committee financial expert." Further, the
designation of a person as an "audit committee financial expert" does not mean
that the person has any greater duties, obligations, or liability than those
imposed on the person without the "audit committee financial expert"
designation. Similarly, the designation of a person as an "audit committee
financial expert" does not affect the duties, obligations, or liability of any
other member of the audit committee or board of directors.

ITEM 4.         PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES.
