NEWPORT BEACH, CALIFORNIA 92660

November 4, 1996

Dear PIMCO Advisors Funds Shareholder:

We are proposing to consolidate the PIMCO Advisors Funds (your fund family)
with the institutional PIMCO Funds family, both of which are managed by the
PIMCO Advisors affiliated investment firms. The resulting fund complex, to be
known as the "PIMCO Funds," will offer both individual and institutional share
classes and provide you with a number of benefits, including an immediate
reduction in Fund operating expenses.

WHAT THE CONSOLIDATION CHANGES

As part of this overall restructuring, we are proposing the merger of the
PIMCO Advisors Value Fund into the PIMCO Funds' NFJ Diversified Low P/E Fund
(which will be renamed the "Value Fund" after the restructuring), and the
merger of the PIMCO Advisors Discovery Fund into the PIMCO Funds' Cadence Mid
Cap Growth Fund.

Each share of your Fund would be exchanged at net asset value and on a tax-
free basis for shares of the fund that is its merger partner. Each merger
would allow you to pursue a similar investment objective with the same
portfolio manager, in a larger fund with a longer track record and lower
operating expenses.

We expect the proposed restructuring and the merger of your Fund will offer
you the following advantages:

. Lower operating expenses. The PIMCO Funds feature a "unified fee"
structure that will set fixed advisory and administration fees for the
Value and Discovery Funds post-merger in place of the current fluctuating
expense ratios--at an initial combined rate lower than the current and
historical expense ratios of these Funds.

. More assets in your Fund. Your new Fund will have more assets under
management. In general, more assets can mean more opportunities to
control risk through greater portfolio diversification. A larger fund can
also realize transaction cost savings and other efficiencies when buying
and selling securities.

. A larger fund family. You will be part of a fund family which will have
approximately $24 billion in assets (based on current values). This
increase in size should provide all of the Funds with more visibility and
presence in the marketplace with the potential to attract new assets.

. More Funds to select. We will be able to offer eight additional Funds--
resulting in a broader choice of investments for shareholders seeking to
make free exchanges between Funds or to diversify further a portfolio.
Like the PIMCO Advisors Funds you now own, the eight additional Funds are
managed by our well known, respected institutional asset management
firms.

. Strong performance histories. While past performance is no guarantee of
future results, the PIMCO Funds which will now be available to you
generally have strong performance histories.

. Simplified PIMCO Funds structure. Having multiple fund complexes with the
PIMCO name may have caused confusion for some of our shareholders,
especially when they were trying to track their Fund's performance in
newspaper listings. This restructuring offers a simpler, more efficient
way to identify your PIMCO Funds.

WHAT STAYS THE SAME

While this restructuring will bring about a number of changes, the
fundamental characteristics of your Fund will stay the same.

. Your Fund's management remains the same. Following the restructuring, you
will have the same institutional investment firm managing your Fund.

. Continued access to specialized, institutional expertise. Each Fund you
already own, and the new ones we are adding to the Fund family, will
continue to offer access to PIMCO Advisors' institutional investment
management firms--each of which specializes in a specific investment
discipline or style.

. Firm commitment to shareholders. PIMCO Advisors and its affiliates remain
committed to shareholders in terms of Fund performance, communications
and service.

The table attached as Exhibit A to this letter summarizes the transaction
for your Fund.

YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT

After reviewing the proposed consolidations, your Board of Trustees
unanimously agreed that they are in the best interests of Fund shareholders
and voted to approve the transactions, all as more fully described in the
accompanying Prospectus/Proxy Statement. Now it is your turn to review the
proposal for your Fund and vote. For more information about the issues
requiring your vote, please refer to the accompanying Prospectus/Proxy
Statement.

A special meeting of the shareholders of PIMCO Advisors Funds will be held
at 11:00 a.m. Eastern time on December 20, 1996 to vote on the specific issues
of each proposed merger. The meeting will be held at our offices at 2187
Atlantic Street in Stamford, Connecticut. If you are not able to attend the
meeting, then please use the enclosed proxy and envelope to cast your vote so
that you will be represented.

Thank you in advance for your participation in this important event.

Sincerely,

/s/ William D. Cvengros

Chief Executive Officer

P.S. No matter how many shares you own, your timely vote is important. Please
make the effort to complete, sign, date and mail the enclosed proxy promptly,
in order to avoid the expense of additional mailings or having our proxy
solicitor, Shareholder Communications Corporation, telephone you.

* Morningstar ratings reflect historical risk-adjusted performance and are
subject to monthly changes. Therefore, past ratings are not a guarantee of
future results. Overall rating is a weighted average of a fund's 3-, 5- and
10-year ratings (when applicable) as of September 30, 1996. During those
periods there were, respectively, 1,708, 1,018 and 557 equity funds rated.
The ratings are calculated from a fund's average annual total return with
appropriate sales charge adjustment and a risk factor that reflects fund
performance relative to three month Treasury bill returns. The Mid Cap
Growth Fund's 3- and 5-year ratings as of 9/30/96 were both 4-stars. The
NFJ Diversified Low P/E Fund's 4-star rating is based on its 3-year record.
Four and five star ratings are limited to approximately the top one-third
of the funds in an investment category.

Advisors' affiliated investment firms. The resulting fund complex, to be known
as the "PIMCO Funds," will offer both individual and institutional share
classes and provide you with a number of benefits, including an immediate
reduction in Fund operating expenses.*

WHAT THE CONSOLIDATION CHANGES

As part of this overall restructuring, we are proposing the merger of your
PIMCO Advisors Fund into an existing institutional fixed income fund of the
PIMCO Funds family. Each share of your Fund would be exchanged at net asset
value and on a tax-free basis for shares of the fund that is its merger
partner. Shareholders will need to evaluate this proposal in terms of their
individual Fund(s). In general, each merger is offering our bond Fund
shareholders the opportunity to pursue a similar investment objective** in a
larger fund, with a longer track record, and lower operating expenses.

We expect the proposed restructuring will offer you the following
advantages:

. Lower operating expenses.* The PIMCO Funds have a unified fee structure
that sets fixed advisory and administration fees in place of the current
fluctuating expense ratios--at an initial combined rate lower than the
current and historical expense ratios for your Fund.

. A larger fund family. You will be part of a fund family which will have

increase in size should provide all of the Funds with more visibility and
presence in the marketplace, with the potential to attract new assets.

. More Funds to select. We will be able to offer eight additional Funds--
resulting in a broader choice of investments for shareholders seeking to
make free exchanges between funds or to diversify further a portfolio.
Three of these new Funds will be managed by Pacific Investment Management
Company, "one of the country's most respected managers of fixed income
portfolios." (Kiplinger's Personal Finance 7/95)

. Strong performance histories. While past performance is no guarantee of
future results, the PIMCO Funds which will now be available to you have
strong performance histories.
- --------

* The merger of the PIMCO Advisors Money Market Fund involves a change of
investment advisor and a different fee situation (see "Money Market Fund--
Special Considerations" in the attached table).
** U.S. Government Fund shareholders should note that their Fund's intended
merger partner, the Total Return Fund, does not invest exclusively in U.S.
Government securities.

WHAT STAYS THE SAME

While this restructuring will bring about a number of changes, the
fundamental characteristics of your Fund will stay the same.

. Fund management. Following the restructuring, each of the Funds covered
by the enclosed Prospectus/Proxy Statement will have Pacific Investment
Management Company acting as investment advisor (this represents a change
for the Money Market Fund only).

. Continued access to specialized, institutional expertise. Each Fund you
already own, and the new ones we are adding to the Fund family, will
continue to offer access to PIMCO Advisors' institutional investment
management firms which include, in addition to Pacific Investment
Management Company, five equity managers--each of which specializes in a
specific investment discipline or style.

. Firm commitment to shareholders. PIMCO Advisors and its affiliates remain
committed to shareholders in terms of Fund performance, communications
and service.

for your bond Fund and special considerations with respect to the Money Market

MONEY MARKET FUND--SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS

Your PIMCO Advisors Money Market Fund (an unrated Fund) will merge into the
PIMCO Funds' Money Market Fund. As a result, the advisor for your Money Market
Fund, currently Columbus Circle Investors, will become Pacific Investment
Management Company. After the consolidation, the aggregate operating expenses
to be borne by investors will be lower than the currently approved contractual
rate for your Money Market Fund, but higher than the current operating
expenses for your Fund, which have been lowered by the current advisor's
voluntary fee waiver. Please note, money market funds strive to maintain a
$1.00 per share net asset value. However, these funds are neither insured nor
guaranteed by the U.S. Government, and there can be no assurance that a fund's
$1.00 per share net asset value will remain stable.
- --------

* Morningstar ratings reflect historical risk-adjusted performance and are
subject to monthly changes. Therefore, past ratings are not a guarantee of
future results. Overall rating is a weighted average of a fund's 3-, 5- and
10-year ratings (when applicable) as of September 30, 1996. During these
periods, there were, respectively, 948, 500 and 186 fixed income funds
rated. The ratings are calculated from a fund's average annual total return
with appropriate sales charge adjustment and a risk factor that reflects
fund performance relative to three month Treasury bill returns. The Total
Return, Short-Intermediate and Low Duration Funds' 3- and 5-year ratings as
of 9/30/96 were 4- and 5-stars, 4- and 3-stars, and 5- and 5-stars,
respectively. The U.S. Government and High Income Funds' 3-, 5- and 10-year
ratings were 2-, 1- and 2-stars, and 2-, 3- and 2-stars, respectively. The
High Yield Fund's 4-star rating is based on its 3-year record. Four and
five star ratings are limited to approximately the top one-third of the
funds in an investment category and 35% earn 3 stars, and one-third of the
funds receive 2 or 1 stars.

Dear PIMCO Advisors Funds Shareholder:

We are proposing to consolidate the PIMCO Advisors Funds (your fund family)
with the existing institutional PIMCO Funds family. If approved, this
consolidation would provide you with a number of advantages, including a
larger fund family.

WHAT THE CONSOLIDATION CHANGES

Currently, there are two PIMCO fund families: PIMCO Advisors Funds (your
fund family) and the institutional PIMCO Funds family, both of which are
managed by PIMCO Advisors affiliated investment firms. The Fund complex
resulting from the consolidation, to be known as the "PIMCO Funds," will offer
both retail and institutional share classes and provide our current PIMCO
Advisors Funds shareholders with several important benefits.

. A larger fund family. You will be part of a fund family which will have
approximately $24 billion in assets (based on current values). This increase
in size should provide the Funds with more visibility and presence in the
marketplace with the potential to attract new assets, allowing for the
possibility for greater portfolio diversification and lower portfolio
transaction costs.

. More Funds to select. We will be able to offer eight additional Funds--
resulting in a broader choice of investments for shareholders looking to
make free exchanges between funds or to diversify further a portfolio. Like
the PIMCO Advisors Funds you now own, the eight additional Funds are managed
by our well known, respected institutional asset management firms.

. Strong performance histories. While past performance is no guarantee of
future results, the PIMCO Funds which will now be available to you have
strong performance histories.

. Fixed fees. Once the restructuring takes place, you will participate in the
PIMCO Funds' "unified fee" structure that sets fixed advisory and
administration fees in place of the current fluctuating expense ratios. The
restructuring also involves changes in total Fund expense ratios (increases
in some cases and decreases in others), all as more fully described in the
proxy statement. In each case, during the term of the relevant contracts,
the unified fee allows shareholders to know up front how much their Fund
will be paying, and it protects against rising expenses.

WHAT STAYS THE SAME

While this restructuring will bring about a lot of changes, the fundamental
characteristics of your Fund will stay the same.

. Your Fund's management and investment objective remains the same. Following
the restructuring, your Fund will have the same quality institutional
investment team and the same investment objective.

. Continued access to specialized, institutional expertise. Each Fund you
already own (except for the Precious Metals Fund), and the new ones we are
adding to the PIMCO Funds family, will continue to offer access to PIMCO
Advisors institutional investment management firms--each of which
specializes in a specific investment discipline or style.

. Firm commitment to shareholders. PIMCO Advisors and its affiliates remain
committed to shareholders, in terms of Fund performance, communications and
service.

YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT

After reviewing these proposed transactions, your Board of Trustees
unanimously agreed that they are in the best interests of Fund shareholders
and voted to approve the transactions, all as more fully described in the
accompanying proxy statement. Now it is your turn to review the proposals for
your Fund and vote. You are also being asked to approve new investment
advisory and sub-advisory contracts. For more information about the issues
requiring your vote (including the new investment advisory and sub-advisory
arrangements that vary by Fund), please refer to the accompanying proxy
statement.

A special meeting of the shareholders of PIMCO Advisors Funds will be held
at 11:00 a.m. Eastern time on December 20, 1996 to vote on the specific issues
of this proposed consolidation. The meeting will be held at our offices at
2187 Atlantic Street in Stamford, Connecticut. If you are not able to attend
the meeting, then please use the enclosed proxy and envelope to cast your vote
so that you will be represented.

Thank you in advance for your participation in this important event.

PIMCO Proposes Consolidation of Fund Families

We're pleased to announce a proposal to consolidate the PIMCO Advisors Funds
with the institutional PIMCO Funds family. If approved by shareholders, all of
the funds will fall under the "PIMCO Funds" banner, and you and your clients
will experience a host of potential benefits.

. Stronger performance histories
To avoid duplication and confusion, several of our Funds will merge into
existing PIMCO institutional Funds. In almost all cases, the Funds' investment
managers will stay the same. By and large, the institutional Funds have strong
track records and longer performance histories.

. Bond Fund expenses reduced
In the future, the total expenses incurred by the retail investors in our
taxable bond Funds will be substantially lower. An increase in expenses for the
Opportunity Fund is proposed.

. Expanded Fund family
We'll offer ten new Funds by adding A, B and C shares to existing PIMCO
institutional Funds.

. Investment clout
The consolidated fund family will be one of the largest fund complexes in the
country. This can mean greater cost efficiencies when buying and selling
portfolio securities.

Status Quo
Of course, some things are too good to tinker with. That's why these important
elements will remain the same:

. Institutional Fund managers
Our Funds will continue to have the same investment firms managing their assets,
except that the Money Market Fund will be managed by Pacific Investment
Management Company.

. Flexible pricing
We'll continue to offer A, B and C shares.

. Sales support
The expert sales support you've come to expect will remain the same, including
your internal and external wholesaler.

Consolidation Timing
In November, your clients will receive proxy statements and ballots. Please urge
your clients to cast their votes as soon as possible, to avoid the cost of
follow-up mailings. If the consolidation is approved, it's anticipated that the
changes would occur by the end of January.
