RE: SSgA Funds
Rule 497(j) Certification to
Post-Effective Amendment No. 41 Under the 1933 Act
File No. 33-19229
811-5430
Ladies and Gentlemen:
I serve as Legal Counsel to SSgA Funds (the "Investment Company"). I also serve
as an officer of the Investment Company. I serve in similar capacities with the
Investment Company's administrator, Frank Russell Investment Management Company,
and other affiliated companies.
As Legal Counsel, I have reviewed the Investment Company's Post-Effective
Amendment No. 41 to the Investment Company's Registration Statement. I hereby
certify that the form of prospectus and Statement of Additional Information
which would have been filed pursuant to Paragraph (c) of Rule 497 does not
differ from that contained in the Post-Effective Amendment No. 41 and is
therefore eligible for filing pursuant to Paragraph (j) of Rule 497. I further
certify that the text of Post-Effective Amendment No. 41 was filed
electronically with the Securities and Exchange Commission under Paragraph (b)
of Rule 485 of the Securities Act of 1933 on June 2, 1997.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Deedra S. Walkey
Deedra S. Walkey
Assistant Secretary and
Associate General Counsel
