EX 99.CODE ETH

                        SARBANES-OXLEY ACT CODE OF ETHICS
                           FOR PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE AND
           SENIOR FINANCIAL OFFICERS OF CAM/U.S. REGISTERED INVESTMENT
                                   COMPANIES

I.   Covered Officers/Purpose of the Code

     This code of ethics (the "Code") for Citigroup Asset Management's ("CAM's")
U. S. registered proprietary investment companies (collectively, "Funds" and
each a, "Company") applies to each Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief
Administrative Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Controller (the "Covered
Officers") for the purpose of promoting:

  .  honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or
     apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional
     relationships;

  .  full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and
     documents that the Company files with, or submits to, the Securities and
     Exchange Commission ("SEC") and in other public communications made by the
     Company;

  .  compliance with applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations;

  .  the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code to an appropriate
     person or persons identified in the Code; and

  .  accountability for adherence to the Code.

  Each Covered Officer should adhere to a high standard of business ethics and
should be sensitive to situations that may give rise to actual as well as
apparent conflicts of interest.

II.  Administration of Code

     The Regional Director of CAM Compliance, North America ("Compliance
Officer") is responsible for administration of this Code, including granting
pre-approvals (see Section III below) and waivers (as described in Section VI
below), applying this Code in specific situations in which questions are
presented under it and interpreting this Code in any particular situation.



III. Covered Officers Should Ethically Handle Actual and Apparent Conflicts of
     Interest

     Overview. A "conflict of interest" occurs when a Covered Officer's private
interest interferes with the interests of, or his service to, the Company. For
example, a conflict of interest would arise if a Covered Officer, or a member of
his family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his position with
the Company.

     Certain conflicts of interest arise out of the relationships between
Covered Officers and the Company and already are subject to conflict of interest
provisions in the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("Investment Company Act") and
the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 ("Investment Advisers Act"). For example,
Covered Officers may not individually engage in certain transactions (such as
the purchase or sale of securities or other property) with the Company because
of their status as "affiliated persons" of the Company. The compliance programs
and procedures of the Company and its investment adviser are designed to
prevent, or identify and correct, violations of these provisions. This Code does
not, and is not intended to, repeat or replace these programs and procedures,
and such conflicts fall outside of the parameters of this Code (see Section VII
below).

     Although typically not presenting an opportunity for improper personal
benefit, conflicts arise from, or as a result of, the contractual relationship
between a Company and the investment adviser of which the Covered Officers are
also officers or employees. As a result, this Code recognizes that the Covered
Officers will, in the normal course of their duties (whether formally for a
Company or for the adviser, or for both), be involved in establishing policies
and implementing decisions that will have different effects on the adviser and a
Company. The participation of the Covered Officers in such activities is
inherent in the contractual relationship between the Company and the adviser and
is consistent with the performance by the Covered Officers of their duties as
officers of a Company. Thus, if performed in conformity with the provisions of
the Investment Company Act and the Investment Advisers Act, such activities will
be deemed to have been handled ethically. In addition, it is recognized by the
Funds' Boards of Directors\Trustees ("Boards") that the Covered Officers may
also be officers or employees of one or more other investment companies covered
by this or other codes.

     Other conflicts of interest are covered by the Code, even if such conflicts
of interest are not subject to provisions in the Investment Company Act and the
Investment Advisers Act. The following list provides examples of conflicts of
interest under the Code, but Covered Officers should keep in mind that these
examples are not exhaustive. The overarching principle is that the personal
interest of a Covered Officer should not be placed improperly before the
interest of the Company.

                         *     *     *     *


     Each Covered Officer must:

  .  not use his personal influence or personal relationships improperly to
     influence investment decisions or financial reporting ( e.g. through
     fraudulent accounting



     practices) by the Company whereby the Covered Officer/1/ would benefit
     personally to the detriment of the Company; or

  .  not cause the Company to take action, or fail to take action, for the
     individual personal benefit of the Covered Officer rather than for the
     benefit of the Company; and

  .  not use material non-public knowledge of portfolio transactions made or
     contemplated for the Company to trade personally or cause others to trade
     personally in contemplation of the market affect of such transactions.

  .  There are some potential conflict of interest situations that should always
     be discussed with the Compliance Officer, if material. Examples are as
     follows:

          (1) service as a director on the board of any public or private
     company;

          (2) any ownership interest in, or any consulting or employment
     relationship with, any of the Company's service providers, other than its
     investment adviser,

          (3) a direct or indirect financial interest in commissions,
     transaction charges or spreads paid by the Company for effecting portfolio
     transactions or for selling or redeeming shares other than an interest
     arising from the Covered Officer's employment, such as compensation or
     equity ownership; and

          (4) the receipt of any gifts or the conveyance of any value (including
     entertainment ) from any company with which the Company has current or
     prospective business dealings, except:

               (a) any non-cash gifts of nominal value (nominal value is less
          than $100); and

               (b) customary and reasonable meals and entertainment at which the
          giver is present, such as the occasional business meal or sporting
          event.

IV.  Disclosure and Compliance

Each Covered Officer:

  .  should be familiar with his or her responsibilities in connection with the
     disclosure requirements generally applicable to the Company;

_________________
/1/ Any activity or relationship that would present a conflict for a Covered
    Officer would also present a conflict for the Covered Officer if a member of
    a Covered Officer's family (spouse, minor children and any account over
    which a Covered Officer is deemed to have beneficial interest) engages in
    such an activity or has such a relationship.



  .  should not knowingly misrepresent, or knowingly cause others to
     misrepresent, facts about the Company to others, whether within or outside
     the Company, including to the Company's directors and auditors, and to
     governmental regulators and self-regulatory organizations;

  .  should, to the extent appropriate within his or her area of responsibility,
     consult with other officers and employees of the Funds and the investment
     adviser with the goal of promoting full, fair, accurate, timely and
     understandable disclosure in the reports and documents the Funds file with,
     or submit to, the SEC and in other public communications made by the Funds;
     and

  .  is responsible to promote compliance with the standards and restrictions
     imposed by applicable laws, rules and regulations.

V.   Reporting and Accountability

     Each Covered Officer must:

  .  upon adoption of the Code (or thereafter as applicable, upon becoming a
     Covered Officer), affirm in writing to the Board that the Covered Officer
     has received, read, and understands the Code;

  .  annually thereafter affirm to the Board that he or she has complied with
     the requirements of the Code;

  .  annually disclose affiliations and other relationships related to conflicts
     of interest;

  .  not retaliate against any other Covered Officer or any employee of the
     Funds or their affiliated persons for reports of potential violations that
     are made in good faith; and

  .  notify the Compliance Officer promptly if he knows of any violation of this
     Code (failure to do so is itself a violation of this Code).

     In rendering decisions and interpretations and in conducting investigations
of potential violations under the Code, the Compliance Officer may, at his
discretion, consult with such persons as he determines to be appropriate,
including, but not limited to, a senior legal officer of the Company or its
investment adviser or its affiliates, independent auditors or other consultants,
subject to any requirement to seek pre-approval from the Company's audit
committee for the retention of independent auditors to perform permissible
non-audit services. The Funds will follow these procedures in investigating and
enforcing the Code:

  .  the Compliance Officer will take all appropriate action to investigate any
     potential violation of which he becomes aware;

  .  if, after investigation the Compliance Officer believes that no violation
     has occurred, the Compliance Officer is not required to take any further
     action;



  .  any matter that the Compliance Officer believes is a violation will be
     reported to the Directors of the Fund who are not "interested persons" as
     defined in the Investment Company Act the ("Non-interested Directors")

  .  if the Non-interested Directors of the Board concur that a violation has
     occurred, it will consider appropriate action, which may include review of,
     and appropriate modifications to, applicable policies and procedures;
     notification to appropriate personnel of the investment adviser or its
     board; or a recommendation to dismiss the Covered Officer; and

  .  any changes to or waivers of this Code will, to the extent required, be
     disclosed as provided by SEC rules

  The Compliance Officer shall submit an annual report to the Board describing
any waivers granted.

VI.  Waivers/2/

     A Covered Officer may request a waiver of any of the provisions of the Code
by submitting a written request for such waiver to the Compliance Officer,
setting forth the basis of such request and explaining how the waiver would be
consistent with the standards of conduct described herein. The Compliance
Officer shall review such request and make a determination thereon in writing,
which shall be binding.

     In determining whether to waive any provisions of this Code, the Compliance
Officer shall consider whether the proposed waiver is consistent with honest and
ethical conduct and other purposes of this Code.

   VII. Other Policies and Procedures

     This Code shall be the sole code of ethics adopted by the Funds for
purposes of Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the rules and forms
applicable to registered investment companies thereunder. Insofar as other
policies or procedures of the Funds, the Funds' investment advisers, principal
underwriters, or other service providers govern or purport to govern the
behavior or activities of the Covered Officers who are subject to this Code,
they are superseded by this Code to the extent that they overlap or conflict
with the provisions of this Code. The codes of ethics of the funds and the
investment advisers and principal underwriters under Rule 17j-1 of the
Investment Company Act and the Citigroup Code of Conduct and Citigroup Statement
of Business Practices as well as other policies of the Fund's investment
advisers or their affiliates are separate requirements applying to the Covered
Officers and others, and are not part of this Code.

________________
/2/ For purposes of this Code, Item 2 of Form N-CSR defines "waiver" as "the
    approval by a Company of a material departure from a provision of the Code"
    and includes an "implicit waiver," which means a Company's failure to take
    action within a reasonable period of time regarding a material departure
    from a provision of the Code that has been made known to an executive
    officer of the Company.



VIII. Amendments

     Any amendments to this Code, other than amendments to Exhibits A, B and C
must be approved or ratified by a majority vote of the Board, including a
majority of Non-interested Directors.

IX. Confidentiality

     All reports and records prepared or maintained pursuant to this Code will
be considered confidential and shall be maintained and protected accordingly.
Except as otherwise required by law or this Code, such matters shall not be
disclosed to anyone other than the appropriate Board and Company and their
respective counsel, counsel to the non-Interested Directors or independent
auditors or other consultants referred to in Section V above.

X. Internal Use

     The Code is intended solely for the internal use by the Funds and does not
constitute an admission, by or on behalf of any Company, as to any fact,
circumstance, or legal conclusion.
