TITLE SECRETARY
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
Capital World Bond Fund, Inc.:
In planning and performing our audit of the financial
statements of Capital World Bond Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") for
the year ended September 30, 1998 (on which we have issued our
report dated November 6, 1998), we considered its 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,
and not to provide assurance on the Fund's internal control.
The management of the Fund 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 any internal control,
errors or fraud may occur and may 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 the Fund's 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 errors
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 the Fund's internal control and its
operation, including controls for safeguarding securities,
that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined above as
of September 30, 1998.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of
management, the Board of Directors of Capital World Bond Fund,
Inc., and the Securities and Exchange Commission.
