EXHIBIT INDEX
Exhibit A: Attachment to item 77B:
Accountant's report on internal control.
- --------------------------------------------------------------
Exhibit A:
To the Shareholders and Trustees of Phoenix Duff &
Phelps Institutional Mutual Funds
In planning and performing our audit of the
financial statements of the Phoenix Duff & Phelps
Institutional Mutual Funds (the "Funds") for the
year ended December 31, 1998, we considered their
internal control, including control activities for
safeguarding securities, in order to determine our
auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing
our opinion on the financial statements and to
comply with the requirements of Form N-SAR, not to
provide assurance on internal control.
The management of the Funds is responsible for
establishing and maintaining internal control. In
fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and
judgments by management are required to assess the
expected benefits and related costs of controls.
Generally, controls that are relevant to an audit
pertain to the entity's objective of preparing
financial statements for external purposes that
are fairly presented in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. Those control
activities include the safeguarding of assets
against unauthorized acquisition, use or
disposition.
Because of inherent limitations in internal
control, errors or fraud may occur and not be
detected. Also, projection of any evaluation of
internal control to future periods is subject to
the risk that it may become inadequate because of
changes in conditions or that the effectiveness of
the design and operation may deteriorate.
Our consideration of internal control would not
necessarily disclose all matters in internal
control that might be material weaknesses under
standards established by the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants. A material weakness
is a condition in which the design or operation of
one or more of the internal control components
does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk
that misstatements caused by error or fraud in
amounts that would be material in relation to the
financial statements being audited may occur and
not be detected within a timely period by
employees in the normal course of performing their
assigned functions. However, we noted no matters
involving internal control and its operations,
including control activities for safeguarding
securities, that we consider to be material
weaknesses as defined above as of December 31,
1998.
This report is intended solely for the information
and use of management and the Trustees of the
Funds and the Securities and Exchange Commission.
