                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

January 20, 1998

To the Investors and Trustees of
J.P. Morgan International Opportunities Fund


In planning and performing our audit of the financial  statements of J.P. Morgan
International  Opportunities  Fund (the "Fund") for the period February 26, 1997
(commencement  of  operations)  to November 30, 1997, 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, not
to provide assurance on internal control.

The management of 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
control activities.  Generally, control activities 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 control  activities  include the  safeguarding of
assets against unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition.

Because of inherent  limitations in internal  control,  errors or irregularities
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 any
specific  internal control  components 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  internal control,
including control activities for safeguarding securities, that we consider to be
material weaknesses as defined above as of November 30, 1997.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of management and the
Trustees of the Fund and the Securities and Exchange Commission.
