                      into International Investments
          
          
               U.S. law requires that assets in pension plans be
          physically held by a trustee in the United States.  For
          two products -- foreign currency certificates of
          deposit and Swiss annuities -- a service is available
          that will let you place these products in your U.S. IRA
          or pension account.
