(File Nos. 33-90888, 811-9010)
Dear Commissioners:
On behalf of Transamerica Investors, Inc. (the "Fund"), we are filing a
certification pursuant to paragraph (j) of Rule 497 under the Securities Act of
1933. In this regard, we certify that the form of Prospectus and Statement of
Additional Information ("SAI") for certain contracts offered by the Fund
otherwise required to be filed under paragraph (c) of Rule 497 does not differ
from the form of Prospectus and SAI contained in the Form N-1A registration
statement for the Fund (the "Registration Statement"), which was filed
electronically with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 28, 1997 via
EDGARLINK.
Sincerely,
Susan Vivino
