Report of Independent Certified Public Accountants on Internal Control
Structure

Board of Directors
First Investors Global Fund, Inc.
New York, New York

In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of
First Investors Global Fund, Inc. for the year ended September 30,
2000, we considered its internal control structure, including
procedures 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 the internal control structure.

The management of the Fund is responsible for establishing and
maintaining an internal control structure.  In fulfilling this
responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required
to assess the expected benefits and related costs of internal control
policies and procedures.  Two of the objectives of an internal
control structure are to provide management with reasonable, but not
absolute, assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from
unauthorized use or disposition, and that transactions are executed in
accordance with management's authorization and recorded properly to
permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

Because of inherent limitations in any internal control structure,
errors or irregularities may occur and not be detected.  Also,
projection of any evaluation of the structure 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 the internal control structure would not
necessarily disclose all matters in the internal control structure
that might be material weakness under standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  A material
weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of the
specific internal control structure elements does not reduce to a
relatively low level the risk that errors or irregularities 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 the internal control structure,
including procedures for safeguarding securities, that we consider to
be material weaknesses, as defined above, as of September 30, 2000.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of
management and the Securities and Exchange Commission, and should not
be used for any other purpose.
