An interview with Lead Portfolio Manager Brian D. Singer |
Q. | How would you describe the economic environment during the reporting period? |
A. | US economic growth was mixed during the fiscal year. Gross domestic product—or “GDP,” which represents the market value of all final goods and services produced within a country in a given period of time—grew 1.1% and 2.1% in the third and fourth quarters of 2006, respectively. However, the economy weakened meaningfully during the first quarter of 2007, coming in at a modest 0.6%—the slowest rate of growth in |

| the US since the fourth quarter of 2002. The slowdown was attributed to a variety of factors, including the cooling of the housing market and relatively tepid business spending.
As the fiscal year drew to a close, improving manufacturing activity and strong exports provided a boost to the economy, and the final number for second quarter GDP was 3.8%. Despite this uptick, the economic growth outlook for the remainder of 2007 is less robust, in our view. The combination of financial market volatility with tight credit conditions, ongoing housing market troubles, and concerns over subprime mortgage lending—the practice of making loans to borrowers who do not qualify for the best market interest rates because of their deficient credit history—is likely to impact both consumer and business spending. |
| |
Q. | How did the Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) react to the economic environment and the issues in the subprime mortgage market? |
A. | Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke initially indicated that the issues related to the subprime mortgage market would probably not impact the overall economy. During Mr. Bernanke’s remarks to Congress in late March 2007, he stated that subprime defaults were “likely to be contained.” However, as the fallout from subprime mortgages escalated, the Fed became more concerned about these issues. On July 18, 2007, the Fed Chairman told Congress that “rising delinquencies and foreclosures are creating personal, economic and social distress for many homeowners and communities—problems that likely will get worse before they get better.”
As credit concerns mounted, the Fed provided greater amounts of liquidity to the market in order to facilitate normal market operations. In mid-August, the Fed lowered the discount rate—the rate the Fed uses for loans it makes directly to banks—from 6.25% to 5.75%. After the reporting period ended on August 31, 2007, the Fed continued to take action by reducing the federal funds rate from 5.25% to 4.75%. (The federal funds rate, or “fed funds” rate, is the rate that banks charge one another for funds they borrow on an overnight basis.) This was the first reduction in the federal funds rate since June 2003.
In its statement accompanying the September meeting, the Fed stated, “Economic growth was moderate during the first half of the year, but the tightening of credit conditions has the potential to intensify the housing correction and to restrain economic growth more generally. Today’s action is intended to help forestall some of the adverse effects on the broader economy that might otherwise arise from the disruptions in financial markets and to promote moderate growth over time.” |

UBS U.S. Allocation Fund
Q. | How did the stock market perform during the reporting period? |
A. | While the US stock market experienced periods of extreme volatility during the reporting period, it generated strong results overall, returning 15.13% as measured by the S&P 500 Index. With the exception of February 2007, the market generated positive results in each of the first eight months of the reporting period. Stocks then weakened significantly in June and July, due in part to the escalating negative news related to the US subprime mortgage market and fears that this would spill over into the broader corporate debt and loan markets.
In addition, investor concerns arose that the robust merger and acquisition environment, which had been supporting the market in recent years, would be impacted by the credit crunch. After falling from a peak in July, stock prices then rallied in August as the Fed lowered the discount rate and investors anticipated that the Fed’s next step would be to reduce the federal funds rate. |
| |
Q. | Did the bond market generate positive results as well during the reporting period? |
A. | After advancing modestly during the first half of the reporting period, Treasury yields moved sharply higher during the second quarter of 2007. This was due, in part, to inflationary fears, a solid job market and expectations that the Fed would not be cutting short-term rates in the near future. Toward the end of the fiscal year, the turmoil in the subprime mortgage market triggered a massive flight to quality. This caused both short- and long-term Treasury yields to move sharply lower (which pushed fixed income prices higher) in July and August. In contrast, most other segments of the fixed income market experienced rapid spread widening and falling prices. (Spread represents the difference between the yield paid on US Treasury bonds and higher-risk securities.) During the reporting period, the overall US bond market, as measured by the Lehman Brothers US Aggregate Bond Index, returned 5.26%. |
| |
Q. | How was the Portfolio allocated at the end of the reporting period? |
A. | As of August 31, 2007, the Fund’s net assets were allocated as follows: approximately 69% was invested in US equities; 23% was invested in investment grade US bonds; 5% was in high yield securities, and 3% was invested in cash equivalents. |
| |
| In comparison, at the time of the semiannual report, on February 28, 2007, the Fund’s net assets were allocated as follows: 66% was invested in US stocks; 30% was invested in investment grade US bonds; 2% was invested in high yield securities, and 2% was invested in cash equivalents. |
3
UBS U.S. Allocation Fund
| We kept the allocation steady during the first part of the reporting period, but made several adjustments to the Fund’s allocation during the second half of the reporting period. In February 2007, we took advantage of the selloff in the bond market by increasing the Fund’s exposure to bonds while maintaining our allocation to high yield securities. This shift was done in concert with reducing our position in cash equivalents. We had been holding cash for some time (instead of holding the full benchmark exposure to US bonds), as we perceived bonds to be inferior to cash from a risk/return perspective. However, in our opinion, the selloff in bonds increased the attractiveness of the fixed income asset class relative to cash, warranting a change in strategy.
In July, following 2007’s second flight to quality in the bond market, high yield spreads widened sharply. As a result of this widening, high yield debt valuations moved from being overvalued to within our fair value range. In response, we increased the Fund’s high yield allocation to a position of 5%, in line with the Fund’s benchmark. To do so, we reduced the Fund’s allocation to investment grade bonds. |
| |
Q. | Which portions of the Fund performed well during the period and which areas produced disappointing results? |
A. | During the fiscal year, we continued to rely on our bottom-up research process to guide sector allocation and stock selection for the Fund. For the period as a whole, our sector positioning enhanced relative results, while our security selection had a slight negative impact on performance.
In the equity component of the Fund, we held overweight positions in pharmaceuticals, banks and autos, and underweights in energy and materials. Later in the fiscal year, we also moved to an underweight position in capital goods stocks.
The Fund’s overweight to banks negatively impacted performance, as the financial sector, in general, underperformed during the period. Investors’ focus on subprime lending issues and levered debt weighed heavily on stock prices. An underweight to oil refining also detracted from performance, as that sector delivered strong returns during the reporting period. However, we continue to find this area unattractive, as we believe that current oil prices are not sustainable. |
| |
| In terms of the Fund’s fixed income exposure, we remained moderately defensive in terms of duration for most of the period. (Duration is a measure of a security’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates.) Specifically, our underweight duration exposure in the five- to 10-year part of the yield curve expressed our view that we expected yields in this area to rise |
4
UBS U.S. Allocation Fund
| relative to the short end of the curve. Late in the period, we extended the Fund’s duration to assume a neutral position relative to the benchmark, the U.S. Allocation Fund Index. This reflected our belief that market sentiment and pricing had moved within our fair value estimates. (A yield curve illustrates the yields of all bonds of the same quality with maturities ranging from the shortest to the longest available.) Our defensive approach hindered returns at the beginning of the reporting period, though yields recovered in June and July of 2007. Overall, our duration strategy produced flat results during the reporting period.
In the Fund’s high yield component, we continued to take a conservative stance by underweighting it relative to the benchmark for the reporting period through June, as we felt the sector was overvalued. Overall, this stance had a negative impact on performance during the fiscal year. This is due to the fact that the high yield asset class outperformed as investors, seeking higher returns, flocked to relatively riskier asset classes at times during the reporting period. However, as discussed, we moved to a more neutral high yield position late in the period as the asset class became more fairly valued, according to our models. |
| |
Q. | Did the Fund have any exposure to subprime mortgages during the reporting period? |
A. | While we avoided direct investments in subprime securities, the Fund’s performance was hurt by disappointing returns from its investment in the Alt-A market. Alt-A loans are designed for people with good credit, who want to borrow without verifying their income. In the wake of the deterioration of the subprime market, the Alt-A market came under scrutiny as concerns were raised about the creditworthiness of borrowers and the standards of the lenders of these securities.
Even higher-quality home equity asset-backed securities (bonds that are based on underlying pools of assets) were affected as investors—surprised by the number and magnitude of defaults in the subprime mortgage market—grew increasingly concerned. In many instances, we think that prices reflected unduly pessimistic default assumptions, investor uncertainty and poor liquidity. Given the divergence between fundamentals and market pricing, we anticipate significant investment opportunities in this sector as the year progresses. |
| |
Q. | What is your outlook for the economy and the Fund over the coming months? |
A. | We believe that the problems in the US housing market are likely to have some impact on the future growth potential of the economy. That said, we believe the effects will take several quarters to filter through |
5
UBS U.S. Allocation Fund
| to the global economy. In our view, they are not likely to be enough to end the current economic growth cycle on their own.
At the time of this writing, we believe the US equity market is priced slightly below fair value. This is largely in response to the decline in investor risk appetite, and is the result of turmoil in the credit markets spilling over into the equity markets.
In this environment, we see opportunities in areas where prices have fallen below our fundamental value estimates. We view the recent volatility and spread widening in the bond market as a return to normal pricing, as bond prices had reached very expensive levels. In fact, in our opinion, investment grade and high yield credit are fast approaching fair value. We believe our current asset allocation to be appropriate considering ongoing economic expansion in the US and the strength of realized earnings growth. |
| | | |
| Adding growth equity investments to UBS U.S. Allocation Fund | |
| We regularly review our product offerings, in an effort to ensure they continue to meet our shareholders’ evolving needs. After careful analysis, this focus has led us to determine that investing a portion of UBS U.S. Allocation Fund’s assets to growth equities has the potential to provide our shareholders with returns at more attractive risk levels. | |
| | | |
| Managing risk and accessing an additional source of returns via a diverse strategy | |
| By introducing US growth equities into the Fund, the portfolio management team seeks to provide shareholders with: | |
| • | An investment that has the potential to reduce the risk of underperforming in markets that do not favor value stocks, by diversifying through a distinct growth equity investment process; and | |
| • | Access to the security selection skill of an experienced growth equity investment team. | |
| | | |
| Investing in growth equities | |
| The Fund will seek to invest directly in individual large capitalization US growth equities. This will be accomplished gradually, based on market conditions and the Fund’s allocation to value stocks. In general, we expect to have about 15% of the total US equity component of the Fund invested in growth equities. | |

Understanding your Fund’s expenses (unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transactional costs (as applicable), including sales charges (loads); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; service and/or distribution (12b-1) fees (if applicable); and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The example below is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period, March 1, 2007 to August 31, 2007.
Actual expenses
The first line for each class of shares in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over a period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for each class of shares under the heading entitled “Expenses paid during period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical example for comparison purposes
The second line for each class of shares in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratios for each class of shares and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return for each class of shares. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing Fund costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs (as applicable), such as sales charges (loads). Therefore, the second line in the table for each class of shares is useful in comparing ongoing Fund costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

UBS U.S. Allocation Fund
Notes to financial statements
Organization and significant accounting policies
UBS U.S. Allocation Fund (the “Fund”) is a series of UBS Investment Trust (the “Trust”) and is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end, diversified management investment company. The Trust was organized on March 28, 1991, as a business trust under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and currently has one operating series.
Currently, the Fund offers Class A, Class B, Class C and Class Y shares. Each class represents interests in the same assets of the Fund, and the classes are identical except for differences in their sales charge structures, ongoing service and distribution charges and certain transfer agency and related services expenses. In addition, Class B shares and all corresponding reinvested dividend shares automatically convert to Class A shares within a certain number of years after issuance which varies depending upon the amount invested. All classes of shares have equal voting privileges except that Class A, Class B and Class C shares each have exclusive voting rights with respect to their respective service and/or distribution plans. Class Y shares have no service or distribution plan.
In the normal course of business the Fund may enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations or that provide indemnification for certain liabilities. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, the Fund has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles requires the Fund’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies:
Valuation of investments—The Fund calculates net asset values based on the current market value for its portfolio securities. The Fund normally obtains market values for its securities from independent pricing sources. Independent pricing sources may use last reported sale prices, current market quotations or valuations from computerized “matrix” systems that derive values based on comparable securities. Securities traded in the over-the-counter (“OTC”) market and listed on The Nasdaq Stock
50
UBS U.S. Allocation Fund
Notes to financial statements
Market, Inc. (“NASDAQ”) normally are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Other OTC securities are valued at the last bid price available prior to valuation. Securities which are listed on US and foreign stock exchanges normally are valued at the last sale price on the day the securities are valued or, lacking any sales on such day, at the last available bid price. In cases where securities are traded on more than one exchange, the securities are valued on the exchange designated as the primary market by UBS Global Asset Management (Americas) Inc. (“UBS Global AM”). If a market value is not available from an independent pricing source for a particular security, that security is valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”). Various factors may be reviewed in order to make a good faith determination of a security’s fair value. These factors include, but are not limited to, the type and cost of the security; contractual or legal restrictions on resale of the security; relevant financial or business developments of the issuer; actively traded similar or related securities; conversion or exchange rights on the security; related corporate actions; and changes in overall market conditions. If events occur that materially affect the value of securities (particularly non-US securities) between the close of trading in those securities and the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, the securities are fair valued. The amortized cost method of valuation, which approximates market value, generally is used to value short-term debt-instruments with sixty days or less remaining to maturity, unless the Board determines that this does not represent fair value.
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement on Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). This standard clarifies the definition of fair value for financial reporting, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. FAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. As of August 31, 2007, management does not believe the adoption of FAS 157 will impact the amounts reported in the financial statements, however, additional disclosures will be required about the inputs used to develop the measurements of fair value and the effect of certain measurements reported in the Statement of Operations for a fiscal period.
Repurchase agreements—The Fund may purchase securities or other obligations from a bank or securities dealer (or its affiliate), subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase them at an agreed upon date
51
UBS U.S. Allocation Fund
Notes to financial statements
(or upon demand) and price. The Fund maintains custody of the underlying obligations prior to their repurchase, either through its regular custodian or through a special “tri-party” custodian or sub-custodian that maintains a separate account for both the Fund and its counterparty. The underlying collateral is valued daily to ensure that the value, including accrued interest, is at least equal to the repurchase price. In the event of default of the obligation to repurchase, the Fund generally has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. Repurchase agreements involving obligations other than US government securities (such as commercial paper, corporate bonds and mortgage loans) may be subject to special risks and may not have the benefit of certain protections in the event of counterparty insolvency. If the seller (or seller’s guarantor, if any) becomes insolvent, the Fund may suffer delays, costs and possible losses in connection with the disposition or retention of the collateral. Under certain circumstances, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings. The Fund may participate in joint repurchase agreement transactions with other funds managed, advised or sub-advised by UBS Global AM.
Investment transactions, investment income and expenses—Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are calculated using the identified cost method. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date (“ex-date”). Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized as adjustments to interest income and the identified cost of investments.
Income, expenses (excluding class-specific expenses) and realized/unrealized gains/losses are allocated proportionately to each class of shares based upon the relative net asset value of outstanding shares (or the value of dividend-eligible shares, as appropriate) of each class at the beginning of the day (after adjusting for current capital share activity of the respective classes). Class-specific expenses are charged directly to the applicable class of shares.
Credit default swap agreements—Credit default swap agreements involve commitments to make or receive payments in the event of a default of a security or a credit event. As a buyer, the Fund would make periodic payments to the counterparty, and the Fund would receive
52
UBS U.S. Allocation Fund
Notes to financial statements
payments only upon the occurrence of a credit event. If no credit event occurs, the Fund will lose its periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract. However, if a credit event does occur, the Fund typically would receive full notional value for a reference obligation that may have little or no value. As a seller, the Fund would receive periodic payments from the counterparty, and the Fund would make payments only upon the occurrence of a credit event. If no default or credit event occurs, the Fund will gain the periodic stream of payments it received over the term of the contract and the counterparty will lose its periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract. However, if a default or credit event occurs, the Fund typically pays full notional value for a reference obligation that may have little or no value. Credit default swaps may involve greater risks than if the Fund had invested in the reference obligation directly and are subject to general market risk, liquidity risk and credit risk.
At August 31, 2007, the Fund had outstanding credit default swap contracts with the following terms:

Notes to financial statements
Dividends and distributions—Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions is determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from US generally accepted accounting principles. These “book/tax” differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification.
Concentration of risk
The ability of the issuers of the debt securities held by the Fund to meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments, including those particular to a specific industry, country or region.
Investment advisor and administrator
The Board has approved an Investment Advisory and Administration Contract (“Advisory Contract”), under which UBS Global AM serves as investment advisor and administrator of the Fund. In accordance with the Advisory Contract, the Fund is to pay UBS Global AM an investment advisory and administration fee, which is to be accrued daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 0.50% of the Fund’s average daily net assets up to $250 million and 0.45% thereafter.
UBS Global AM has agreed to permanently reduce its advisory and administration fee based on the Fund’s average daily net assets so that it is assessed as follows: $0 to $250 million – 0.50%; in excess of $250 million up to $500 million – 0.45%; in excess of $500 million up to $2 billion – 0.40%; and over $2 billion – 0.35%. Accordingly, for the year ended August 31, 2007, UBS Global AM waived $171,947 in investment advisory and administration fees. At August 31, 2007, the Fund owed UBS Global AM $296,602 in investment advisory and administration fees. At August 31, 2007, UBS Global AM owed the Fund $10,543 for fee waivers under the above agreement.
For the year ended August 31, 2007, the Fund paid $23,940 in brokerage commissions to UBS Securities LLC, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of UBS AG, for transactions executed on behalf of the Fund.

Additional information regarding compensation to affiliate of a board member
Effective March 1, 2005, Professor Meyer Feldberg accepted the position of senior advisor to Morgan Stanley, resulting in him becoming an interested trustee of the Fund. The Fund has been informed that Professor Feldberg’s role at Morgan Stanley does not involve matters directly affecting any UBS funds. Fund transactions are executed through Morgan Stanley based on that firm’s ability to provide best execution of the transactions. During the year ended August 31, 2007, the Fund paid brokerage commissions to Morgan Stanley in the amount of $15,840. During the year ended August 31, 2007, the Fund purchased and sold certain securities (e.g., fixed income securities) in principal trades with Morgan Stanley having an aggregate value of $123,955,091. Morgan Stanley received compensation in connection with these trades, which may have been in the form of a “mark-up” or “mark-down” of the price of the securities, a fee from the issuer for maintaining a commercial paper program, or some other form of compensation. Although the precise amount of this compensation is not generally known by the advisor, it is believed that under normal circumstances it represents a small portion of the total value of the transactions.
Service and distribution plans
UBS Global Asset Management (US) Inc. (“UBS Global AM—US”) is the principal underwriter of the Fund’s shares. Under separate plans of service and/or distribution pertaining to Class A, Class B and Class C shares, the Fund pays UBS Global AM—US monthly service fees at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Class A, Class B and Class C shares and monthly distribution fees at the annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares. At August 31, 2007, the Fund owed UBS Global AM—US $295,761 for service and distribution fees.
UBS Global AM—US also receives the proceeds of the initial sales charges paid by shareholders upon the purchase of Class A shares and the contingent deferred sales charges paid by shareholders upon certain redemptions of Class A, Class B and Class C shares. UBS Global AM—US has informed the Fund that for the year ended August 31, 2007, it earned $149,225, $89,783, and $5,991 in initial sales and deferred sales charges on Class A, Class B and Class C shares, respectively.
55
UBS U.S. Allocation Fund
Notes to financial statements
Redemption fees
Effective March 1, 2007, there will be a redemption fee of 1.00% on any class of shares if an investor sells or exchanges shares less than 90 days after purchase, subject to certain exemptions as noted in the prospectus. For the period ended August 31, 2007, the Fund received $5,320 in redemption fees.
Transfer agency related services fees
UBS Financial Services Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of UBS AG, provides certain services to the Fund pursuant to a delegation of authority from PFPC, Inc. (“PFPC”), the Fund’s transfer agent, and is compensated for these services by PFPC, not the Fund.
For the year ended August 31, 2007, UBS Financial Services, Inc. received from PFPC, not the Fund, $432,966 of the total delegated services fees paid by the Fund to PFPC.
Securities lending
The Fund may lend securities up to 331/3% of its total assets to qualified broker-dealers or institutional investors. The loans are secured at all times by cash, US government securities or irrevocable letters of credit in an amount at least equal to the market value of the securities loaned, plus accrued interest and dividends, determined on a daily basis and adjusted accordingly. The Fund may regain ownership of loaned securities to exercise certain beneficial rights; however, the Fund may bear the risk of delay in recovery of, or even loss of rights in, the securities loaned should the borrower fail financially. The Fund receives compensation for lending its securities from interest or dividends earned on the cash, US government securities or irrevocable letters of credit held as collateral, net of fee rebates paid to the borrower plus reasonable administrative and custody fees. UBS Financial Services Inc. and other affiliated broker-dealers have been approved as borrowers under the Fund’s securities lending program. UBS Securities LLC is the Fund’s lending agent. For the year ended August 31, 2007, UBS Securities LLC earned $67,084 in compensation as the Fund’s lending agent. At August 31, 2007, the Fund owed UBS Securities LLC $5,769 in compensation as the Fund’s lending agent.
At August 31, 2007, the Fund had securities on loan having a market value of $100,641,339. The custodian for the Fund held cash and cash equivalents as collateral for securities loaned of $58,832,677. In addition,
56

the Fund held US government and agency securities having an aggregate value of $45,030,306 as collateral for portfolio securities loaned as follows:
Principal | | | | | | | | | |

|
| | | | | | | | | | $45,030,306 |
|
Bank line of credit
The Fund participates with other funds managed, advised or sub-advised by UBS Global AM in a $100 million committed credit facility with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“Committed Credit Facility”), to be utilized for temporary financing until the settlement of sales or purchases of portfolio securities, the repurchase or redemption of shares of the Fund at the request of the shareholders and other temporary or emergency purposes. Under the Committed Credit Facility arrangement, the Fund has agreed to pay commitment fees, pro rata, based on the relative asset size of the funds in the Committed Credit Facility. Interest is charged to the Fund at the overnight federal funds rate in effect at the time of borrowings, plus 0.50%. For the year ended August 31, 2007 the Fund had an outstanding borrowing of $31,419,309 for three days at an annualized rate of 5.81%, which resulted in $15,212 of interest expense.
Purchases and sales of securities
For the year ended August 31, 2007, aggregate purchases and sales of portfolio securities, excluding short-term securities and US Government securities, were $327,128,825 and $513,213,019, respectively.
For the year ended August 31, 2007, aggregate purchases and sales of US Government securities, excluding short-term securities, were $370,190,105 and $404,700,385, respectively.
Federal tax status
The Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its income and to comply with the other requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required. In addition, by distributing during each calendar
57
UBS U.S. Allocation Fund
Notes to financial statements
year substantially all of its net investment income, net realized capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, the Fund intends not to be subject to a federal excise tax.
The tax character of distributions paid during the fiscal years ended August 31, 2007 and August 31, 2006 were as follows:
Distributions paid from: | | | 2007 | | | 2006 | |
| |
Ordinary income | | | $17,416,660 | | | $17,721,453 | |
| |
At August 31, 2007, the components of accumulated deficit on a tax basis were as follows:
Undistributed ordinary income | | | $13,938,343 | |
| |
Accumulated realized capital and other losses | | | (100,452,966 | ) |
| |
Net unrealized appreciation of investments | | | 59,734,552 | |
| |
Total accumulated deficit | | | $(26,780,071 | ) |
| |
The differences between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation/depreciation is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, tax treatment of credit default swaps and return of capital adjustments from real estate investment trusts.
At August 31, 2007, the Fund had a net capital loss carryforward of $100,452,966. This loss carryforward is available as a reduction, to the extent provided in the regulations, of any future net realized capital gains and will expire August 31, 2011. To the extent that such losses are used to offset future net realized capital gains, it is probable these gains will not be distributed. For the period ended August 31, 2007, the Fund utilized $67,309,715 of capital loss carryforwards to offset current year realized gains.
For federal income tax purposes, the tax cost of investments and the components of net unrealized appreciation of investments at August 31, 2007 were as follows:
Tax cost of investments | | $ | 745,928,671 | |
| |
Gross appreciation (investments having an excess of value over cost) | | | 78,546,953 | |
| |
Gross depreciation (investments having an excess of cost over value) | | | (18,812,401 | ) |
| |
Net unrealized appreciation of investments | | | $59,734,552 | |
| |
To reflect reclassifications arising from permanent “book/tax” differences for the year ending August 31, 2007, undistributed net investment income
58
UBS U.S. Allocation Fund
Notes to financial statements
was increased by $369,138, and accumulated net realized losses from investment transactions were increased by $369,138. These differences are primarily due to return of capital adjustments from real estate investments trusts, reclassification of swap income and paydown reclasses.
On July 13, 2006, FASB released FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing a Fund’s tax return to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet a more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax expense in the current year. Based on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s announcement on December 22, 2006, the implementation of FIN 48 must be incorporated into accounting practices no later than the last business day that occurs in the period covered by the Fund’s February 29, 2008 semiannual report. Management continues to evaluate the application of FIN 48 to the Fund, and is not in a position at this time to estimate the significance of its impact, if any, to the Fund’s financial statements.

Report of Ernst & Young LLP, independent registered public accounting firm
The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
UBS U.S. Allocation Fund
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of the UBS U.S. Allocation Fund (the sole Fund comprising UBS Investment Trust) (the “Fund”), including the portfolio of investments, as of August 31, 2007, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement 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 the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2007, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. 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 UBS U.S. Allocation Fund at August 31, 2007, 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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

General information (unaudited)
Tax information
We are required by Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, to advise you within 60 days of the Fund’s fiscal year end (August 31, 2007) as to the federal tax status of distributions received by shareholders during such fiscal year. The percentage of dividends paid that qualify for the 70% dividends received deduction for corporate shareholders is 59.78%.
For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2007, certain dividends paid by UBS U.S. Allocation Fund may be subject to a maximum tax rate of 15%, as provided for by the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003. Of the distributions paid during the fiscal year, $17,416,660 represents the maximum amount that may be considered qualified dividend income.
Dividends received by tax-exempt recipients (e.g., IRAs and Keoghs) need not be reported as taxable income. Some retirement trusts (e.g., corporate, Keogh and 403(b)(7) plans) may need this information for their annual information reporting.
Since the Fund’s fiscal year is not the calendar year, another notification will be sent in respect of calendar year 2007. The second notification, which will reflect the amount to be used by calendar year taxpayers on their federal income tax returns, will be made in conjunction with Form 1099 DIV and will be mailed in January 2008. Shareholders are advised to consult their own tax advisers with respect to the tax consequences of their investment in the Fund.

UBS U.S. Allocation Fund
Board approval of investment advisory and administration agreement (unaudited)
Background—At a meeting of the board of UBS Investment Trust (the “Trust”) on July 18, 2007, the members of the board, including the trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust (“Independent Trustees”), as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), considered and approved the continuance of the Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement of the Trust with respect to its series, UBS U.S. Allocation Fund (the “Fund”), with UBS Global Asset Management (Americas) Inc. (“UBS Global AM”). In preparing for the meeting, the board members had requested and received extensive information from UBS Global AM to assist them, including performance and expense information for other investment companies with similar investment objectives. The board received and considered a variety of information about UBS Global AM, as well as the advisory, administrative and distribution arrangements for the Fund. In addition, one of the Independent Trustees and legal counsel to the Independent Trustees met several times with management and representatives of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) to discuss management’s proposed profitability methodology and made suggestions for changes to the methodology. As a result of management’s focus on the profitability methodology and this series of meetings, the Independent Trustees received extensive information on UBS Global AM’s profitability, a report from management on the methodology used and a report from PwC on industry practices with respect to profitability methodology. The board received materials detailing the administrative services provided to the Fund by UBS Global AM, which include providing accounting and financial analysis, ensuring that all financial and tax regulatory reporting requirements were met, certifying required Securities and Exchange Commission documentation and monitoring the performance of the Fund’s service providers.
The Independent Trustees also met for several hours the evening before the board meeting to discuss matters related to the Fund and other funds subject to their oversight and met again after management’s presentation was completed to review the disclosure that had been made to them at the meeting. At all of these sessions the Independent Trustees met in session with their independent legal counsel. The Independent Trustees also received a memorandum from their independent legal counsel discussing the duties of board members in considering approval of advisory and administration agreements.

Board approval of investment advisory and administration agreement (unaudited)
In its consideration of the approval of the Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement, the board considered the following factors:
Nature, extent and quality of the services under the investment advisory and administration agreement—The board received and considered information regarding the nature, extent and quality of advisory services provided to the Fund by UBS Global AM under the Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement during the past year. The board considered the nature, extent and quality of administrative and shareholder services performed by UBS Global AM and its affiliates. The board also considered the resources devoted to, and the record of compliance with, the Fund’s compliance policies and procedures. The board noted that it received information at regular meetings throughout the year regarding the services rendered by UBS Global AM concerning the management of the Fund’s affairs and UBS Global AM’s role in coordinating providers of other services to the Fund, including custody, accounting and transfer agency services. The board’s evaluation of the services provided by UBS Global AM took into account the board’s knowledge and familiarity gained as board members of funds in the UBS New York fund complex, including the scope and quality of UBS Global AM’s investment advisory and other capabilities and the quality of its administrative and other services. The board observed that the scope of services provided by UBS Global AM had expanded over time as a result of regulatory and other developments, including maintaining and monitoring its own and the Fund’s expanded compliance programs.
The board had available to it the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the Fund’s senior personnel at UBS Global AM and had received information regarding the person primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund and recognized that the Fund’s senior personnel at UBS Global AM report to the board regularly, some at every board meeting, and that at each regular meeting the board receives a report on the Fund’s performance. The board also considered, based on its knowledge of UBS Global AM and its affiliates, the financial resources available to UBS Global AM and its parent organization, UBS AG. In that regard, the board received extensive financial information regarding UBS Global AM and noted that it was a wholly owned, indirect subsidiary of one of the largest financial services firms in the world. It was also noted that UBS Global AM had well over $100 billion in assets under
65
UBS U.S. Allocation Fund
Board approval of investment advisory and administration agreement (unaudited)
management and was part of the UBS Global Asset Management Division, which had over $700 billion of assets under management worldwide.
The board reviewed how transactions in Fund assets are effected. The board also reviewed the Fund’s brokerage policies and practices, the standards applied in seeking best execution, policies and practices regarding soft dollars, the use of a broker affiliated with UBS Global AM and the existence of quality controls applicable to brokerage allocation procedures. In addition, UBS Global AM also reported to the board on, among other things, its disaster recovery plans and portfolio manager compensation plan.
The board concluded that, overall, it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided (and expected to be provided) to the Fund under the Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement.
Advisory fees and expense ratios—The board reviewed and considered the contractual management fee (“Contractual Management Fee”) payable by the Fund to UBS Global AM in light of the nature, extent and quality of the advisory and administrative services provided by UBS Global AM. The board also reviewed and considered the fee waiver arrangement in place for the Fund and considered the actual fee rate (after taking any waivers into account) (the “Actual Management Fee”). Additionally, the board received and considered information comparing the Fund’s Contractual Management Fee, Actual Management Fee and overall expenses with those of funds in a group of funds selected and provided by Lipper, Inc. (“Lipper”), an independent provider of investment company data (the “Expense Group”).
In connection with its consideration of the Fund’s advisory fees, the board also received information on UBS Global AM’s standard institutional account fees for accounts of a similar investment type to the Fund. The board noted that, in general, these fees were lower than the Contractual Management Fee and Actual Management Fee for the Fund, but also noted management’s explanation that comparisons with such accounts may be of limited relevance given the different structures and regulatory requirements of mutual funds versus such accounts and the differences in the levels of services required by mutual funds and such accounts. The board also received information on fees charged to other mutual funds managed by UBS Global AM.
66
UBS U.S. Allocation Fund
Board approval of investment advisory and administration agreement (unaudited)
In addition to the Contractual and Actual Management Fees, the board also reviewed and considered the total expenses for the Fund. The comparative Lipper information showed that the Fund’s Contractual Management Fee, Actual Management Fee and total expenses were in the first quintile in the Fund’s Expense Group for the comparison periods utilized in the Lipper report (with the first quintile representing that fifth of the funds in the Expense group with the lowest level of fees or expenses, as applicable, and the fifth quintile representing that fifth of the funds in the Expense Group with the highest level of fees or expenses, as applicable).
Taking all of the above into consideration, the board determined that the management fee was reasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund under the Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement.
Fund performance—The board received and considered (a) annualized total return information of the Fund compared to other funds (the “Performance Universe”) selected by Lipper over the one-, three-, five-, ten-year and since inception periods ended April 30, 2007 and (b) annualized performance information for each year in the ten-year period ended April 30, 2007. The board was provided with a description of the methodology Lipper used to determine the similarity of the Fund with the funds included in its Performance Universe. The board also noted that it had received information throughout the year at periodic intervals with respect to the Fund’s performance, including with respect to its benchmark index.
The comparative Lipper information showed that the Fund’s performance was in the first quintile for the one-year period, the third quintile for the three- and ten year periods, the fourth quintile for the five-year period, and the second quintile since inception (with the first quintile representing that fifth of the funds in the Performance Universe with the highest performance and the fifth quintile representing that fifth of the funds in the Performance Universe with the lowest performance). In its review the board particularly concentrated on the Fund’s performance for the one- and three-year periods as compared to the average return for the Fund’s Performance Universe and benchmark index, taking the volatility in returns for the Performance Universe and the index into account. Management explained that the below average five-year return was due almost entirely to the legacy Tactical Allocation investment model, and reminded the
67
UBS U.S. Allocation Fund
Board approval of investment advisory and administration agreement (unaudited)
board that the Fund had discontinued using that model and had changed its investment strategies in 2004. Based on its review, and management’s explanations, the board concluded that the Fund’s investment performance was satisfactory.
Adviser profitability—The board received and considered a profitability analysis of UBS Global AM and its affiliates in providing services to the Fund. The board also received profitability information with respect to the UBS New York fund complex as a whole. In addition, the board received information with respect to UBS Global AM’s allocation methodologies used in preparing this profitability data, as noted above. UBS Global AM’s profitability was considered not excessive in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund.
Economies of scale—The board received and considered information from management regarding whether UBS Global AM has achieved economies of scale with respect to the management of the Fund, whether the Fund has appropriately benefited from any economies of scale, and whether there is potential for realization of further economies of scale for the Fund. The board considered whether economies of scale in the provision of services to the Fund were being passed along to shareholders. The board also considered whether alternative fee structures (such as breakpoints) would be more appropriate or reasonable taking into consideration economies of scale or other efficiencies.
Although the board noted that the Fund’s Contractual Management Fee did not contain breakpoints, it recognized that the Trust had entered into an agreement with UBS Global AM, whereby UBS Global AM agreed to permanently reduce its Contractual Management Fee by utilizing breakpoints based on the Fund’s average daily net assets, thereby achieving the same effect as if the Contractual Management Fee contained breakpoints. The board also noted that as the Fund’s assets have increased over time, it has realized other economies of scale as certain expenses, such as fees for Trustees, auditors and legal fees, become a smaller percentage of overall assets.
Generally, in light of UBS Global AM’s profitability data and the Contractual Management Fee and Actual Management Fee currently in place, the board believed that UBS Global AM’s sharing of current economies of scale with the Fund was acceptable.
68
UBS U.S. Allocation Fund
Board approval of investment advisory and administration agreement (unaudited)
Other benefits to UBS Global AM—The board considered other benefits received by UBS Global AM and its affiliates as a result of its relationship with the Fund, including the opportunity to offer additional products and services to Fund shareholders.
In light of the costs of providing investment advisory, administrative and other services to the Fund and UBS Global AM’s ongoing commitment to the Fund, the profits and other ancillary benefits that UBS Global AM and its affiliates received were considered reasonable.
In light of all of the foregoing, the board approved the Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement to continue for another year.
In making its decision, the board identified no single factor as being determinative in approving the Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement. The Independent Trustees were advised by separate independent legal counsel throughout the entire process. The board discussed the proposed continuance of the Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement in a private session with their independent legal counsel at which no representatives of UBS Global AM were present.

| | | The [audit] Committee shall: |
| | | | |
| | | ... |
| | | | |
| | | 2. | Pre-approve (a) all audit and permissible non-audit services1 to be provided to the Fund and (b) all permissible non-audit services to be provided by the Fund’s independent auditors to UBS Global [Asset Management (Americas) Inc. (“UBS Global AM”)] and any Covered Service Providers, if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund. In carrying out this responsibility, the Committee shall seek periodically from UBS Global [AM] and from the independent auditors a list of such audit and permissible non-audit services that can be expected to be rendered to the Fund, UBS Global [AM] or any Covered Service Providers by the Fund’s independent auditors, and an estimate of the fees sought to be paid in connection with such services. The Committee may delegate its responsibility to pre-approve any such audit and permissible non-audit services to a sub-committee consisting o f the Chairperson of the Committee |
| | | | and two other members of the Committee as the Chairperson, from time to time, may determine and appoint, and such sub-committee shall report to the Committee, at its next regularly scheduled meeting after the sub-committee’s meeting, its decision(s). From year to year, the Committee shall report to the Board whether this system of pre-approval has been effective and efficient or whether this Charter should be amended to allow for pre-approval pursuant to such policies and procedures as the Committee shall approve, including the delegation of some or all of the Committee’s pre-approval responsibilities to other persons (other than UBS Global [AM] or the Fund’s officers). |
| | |

|
| | | | Pre-approval by the Committee of any permissible non-audit services is not required so long as: (i) the aggregate amount of all such permissible non-audit services provided to the Fund, UBS Global [AM] and any service providers controlling, controlled by or under common control with UBS Global [AM] that provide ongoing services to the Fund (“Covered Service Providers”) constitutes not more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid to the independent auditors (during the fiscal year in which the permissible non-audit services are provided) by (a) the Fund, (b) its investment adviser and (c) any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the Fund during the fiscal year in which the services are provided that would have to be approved by the Committee; (ii) the permissible non-audit services were not recognized by the Fund at the time of the engag ement to be non-audit services; and (iii) such services are promptly brought to the attention of the Committee and approved by the Committee (or its delegate(s)) prior to the completion of the audit. |

| | Covered Services | | $17,900 | | | | $9,073 |
| | Non-Covered Services | | 1,845,915 | | | | 1,879,474 |
(h) | | The registrant’s audit committee was not required to consider whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence. |
