Board of Directors
Equity Fund Portfolio (a series of Frontier Funds, Inc.)
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of Equity
Fund Portfolio (a series of Frontier Funds, Inc.) for the year ended
September 30, 1998, 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 Equity Fund Portfolio (a series of Frontier Funds, 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 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 may 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 September 30, 1998.
