Board of Directors
Seligman Portfolios, Inc.
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of
Seligman Portfolios, Inc. (comprising, respectively, Seligman Bond Portfolio,
Seligman Capital Portfolio, Seligman Cash Management Portfolio, Seligman
Common Stock Portfolio, Seligman Communications and Information Portfolio,
Seligman Frontier Portfolio, Seligman Henderson Global Growth Opportunities
Portfolio, Seligman Henderson Global Smaller Companies Portfolio, Seligman
Henderson Global Technology Portfolio, Seligman Henderson International
Portfolio, Seligman High-Yield Bond Portfolio and Seligman Income Portfolio) for
the year ended December 31, 1996, 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 Seligman Portfolios, Inc. 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 structure
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
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 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 December 31, 1996.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of management and
the Securities and Exchange Commission.
