[THE DIVERSIFIED INVESTORS FUNDS GROUP LETTERHEAD]
February 26, 1997
The Diversified Investors Funds Group
4 Manhattanville Road
Purchase, New York 10577
Dear Sirs:
I have reviewed the procedure under which The Diversified Investors Funds Group
elected to register an indefinite amount of securities under the Securities Act
of 1933 pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as well
as the preparation of the accompanying Notice making definite in number the
$46,484,113 amount of said securities registered pursuant to that Rule for the
year 1996.
In my opinion these securities, the registration of which the accompanying
Notice makes definite in number, were legally issued, fully paid, and
non-assessable.
I hereby consent to your forwarding this opinion to the Securities and Exchange
Commission in connection with your Rule 24f-2 Notice and to any reference that
might at any time be made to it or to me in any amendment to the registration
statement on Form N-1A or otherwise for these securities.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Robert F. Colby
