Report of Independent Auditors
Board of Directors and Stockholder
Great Lakes Fund, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and
liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, of
Great Lakes Fund, Inc. as of December 31, 1997, and the
related statement of operations, the statement of changes in
net assets, and the financial highlights for the year then
ended. These financial statements and financial highlights
are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and financial highlights based on our audit. The
statement of changes in net assets of Great Lakes Fund, Inc.
for the year ended December 31, 1996, and the financial
highlights for the year then ended and for the period from
May 1, 1995 (commencement of operations) to December 31,
1995 were audited by other auditors whose report dated
February 14, 1997, expressed an unqualified opinion on those
statements.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements and financial highlights
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures
included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31,
1997, by correspondence with the custodian. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the 1997 financial statements and financial
highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Great Lakes Fund, Inc.
at December 31, 1997, the results of its operations, changes
in its net assets, and its financial highlights for the year
then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

Great Lakes Fund, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 1997
1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
The Great Lakes Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is registered as a
diversified, closed-end management investment company under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund
commenced investment operations on May 1, 1995.
The Fund's objective is long-term capital appreciation with
income as a secondary objective. The Fund's investments
consist primarily of common stocks of large and medium
capitalization U.S. companies. The Fund's investment
portfolio must conform to certain rating agency asset
coverage tests so long as the Fund has preferred stock
outstanding.
The following is a summary of significant accounting
policies consistently followed by the Fund in preparation of
its financial statements.
Security Valuation
Investments in securities traded on a national securities
exchange (or reported on the Nasdaq National Market) are
valued at the last reported sales price on the primary
exchange. Temporary investments are valued at amortized
cost which approximates fair value.
Security Transactions
Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date plus
one business day basis which does not differ materially from
a trade date basis. The cost of securities sold is
determined using the identified cost method. Dividend
income is recorded on ex-dividend date and interest income
is recorded on the accrual basis.
Federal Income Taxes
It is the Fund's policy to comply with the requirements of
the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
companies and distribute its taxable income to
stockholders. Therefore, no provision for Federal income
tax is required.
Distribution of Income and Gains
The Fund distributes substantially all of its taxable income
in excess of the dividends paid to the preferred
stockholders to the common stockholder. Dividends to the
common stockholder are declared and paid at least annually.
Net realized capital gains, if any, are generally
distributed annually.
The character of income and gains distributed is determined
in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ
from generally accepted accounting principles. Amounts
distributed in excess of taxable income and net realized
capital gains, if any, are considered a return of capital.
Use of Estimates
Estimates and assumptions are required to be made regarding
assets, liabilities and changes in net assets resulting from
operations when financial statements are prepared. Changes
in the economic environment, financial markets and any other
parameters used in determining these estimates could cause
actual results to differ from these amounts.
Organization Costs
Organization costs have been deferred and are being
amortized by the Fund on a straight-line basis over five
years.
2. Related Party Transactions
A collective trust fund for employee benefit plans is the
sole common stockholder of the Fund. Certain officers and
directors of the Fund are affiliated with the common
stockholder. No fees or expenses were paid to the
affiliated officers and directors.
For the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, dividend and
capital gain distributions to the common stockholder
amounted to $207,462 and $6,530,310, respectively.
During the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, return of
capital distributions to the common stockholder amounted to
approximately $62,000,000 and approximately $50,000,000.
During 1997, the common stockholder made a capital
contribution to the Fund in the amount of $8,000,000.
Comerica Bank serves as both custodian and administrator for
the Fund and receives a fee based on a percentage of net
assets outstanding at the end of the fiscal year. The
annual fee as a percentage of net assets at December 31,
1997 and December 31, 1996 was 0.15% and 0.25%,
respectively, and 0.06% in years thereafter. An affiliate
of Comerica Bank serves as investment advisor to the Fund.
The annual investment management fee is 0.01% of average
equity investments. The administration and management fees
are calculated, accrued and paid on a monthly basis.
3. Investment Transactions
The aggregate cost of securities purchased and the aggregate
proceeds of securities sold excluding short-term securities,
for the year ended December 31, 1997 were $55,868,909 and
$45,538,732, respectively.
As of December 31, 1997, the net unrealized appreciation of
$644,012,337 is comprised of aggregate gross unrealized
appreciation and depreciation of investments of $649,624,039
and $5,611,702, respectively.
4. Auction Market Preferred Stock ("AMPS")
The Fund has outstanding at December 31, 1997, 1000 shares
each of Series A, Series B and Series C, 500 shares each of
Series D and Series E, and 750 shares of Series F AMPS. The
AMPS rates in effect on December 31, 1997 were 4.32%, 4.25%,
4.21%, 4.27%, 4.30% and 4.30% for Series A, Series B, Series
C, Series D, Series E and Series F, respectively.
In February 1997 and June 1996, the Fund issued $75 million
and $50 million of AMPS, respectively.
Each series of AMPS is redeemable at the option of the Fund
in whole, but not in part, at a price of $100,000 per share
plus accumulated and unpaid dividends. Dividends are
cumulative from the date of original issue and are paid
every 49 days at a rate set through Dutch Auction. The Fund
is subject to certain asset coverage tests, and the AMPS are
subject to mandatory redemption if the tests are not met.
In addition, the AMPS are subject to mandatory redemption if
the Fund ceases to qualify as a regulated investment company
or if Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated
ceases to be the broker dealer. The liquidation value under
mandatory redemption of the AMPS is $100,000 per share plus
accumulated and unpaid dividends.
5. Notes Payable
As of December 31, 1997, the Fund had $305,500 of principal
notes outstanding to investors. The notes are due on May 8,
2020 and bear interest at a floating rate. The interest
rate, which resets annually, is set at the one-year U.S.
Treasury bill rate plus 3.50%. As of December 31, 1997, the
Fund was paying interest at 9.23% per annum.
6. Year 2000 (Unaudited)
Like other mutual funds, financial and business
organizations and individuals around the world, the Fund
could be adversely affected if the computer systems used by
the advisor/administrator and other service providers do not
properly process and calculate date-related information and
data from and after January 1, 2000. This is commonly known
as the "Year 2000 Problem". The advisor/administrator is
taking steps that it believes are reasonably designed to
address the Year 2000 Problem with respect to computer
systems that it uses and to obtain reasonable assurances
that comparable steps are being taken by the Fund's other
major service providers. At this time, however, there can
be no assurance that these steps will be sufficient to avoid
any adverse impact to the Fund.
