REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
Board of Trustees
Kemper Funds
In planning and performing our audits of the financial statements of each of the
Kemper Funds listed in Exhibit A attached hereto (the "Funds") for the period
ended as of the date listed in Exhibit A attached hereto ("Report Date"), 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 controls include the safeguarding of assets against
unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition.
Because of inherent limitations in internal control, error 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 misstatements, 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
operation, including controls for safeguarding securities, that we consider to
be material weaknesses as defined above at Report Date.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of the board of
trustees and management and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not
intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified
parties.
