Dear Sir or Madam:
G.T. Investment Portfolios, Inc. (the "Company") is organized as a Maryland
corporation. The Company currently consists of a single series: GT Global
Dollar Fund. We understand that the Company is about to file a Rule 24f-2
Notice pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, for the purpose of making definite the number of shares of the
Company's common stock which it has registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, and which were sold during the Company's fiscal year ended
December 31, 1996.
We have, as counsel, participated in various business and other matters
relating to the Company. We have examined copies, either certified or otherwise
proved to be genuine, of the Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws of the
Company, the minutes of the meetings of the board of directors and other
documents relating to the organization and operation of the Company, and we
generally are familiar with its business affairs. Based on the foregoing and
assuming that the shares were issued in compliance with federal and state
securities laws, it is our opinion that the shares of common stock of the
Company sold during the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996, the registration of
which will be made definite by the filing of the Rule 24f-2 Notice, were legally
issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
