Focused Small Cap Fund.In planning and performing our audits of
the financial statements of each of the funds constituting
Nationwide Mutual Funds as listed in Appendix A (hereafter referred
 to as the Funds) as of and for the periods ended October 31, 2021,
 in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), we considered the Funds
 internal control over financial reporting, including controls over
 safeguarding securities, as a basis for designing our auditing
procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial
statements and to comply with
the requirements of Form N-CEN, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds internal control over
financial reporting.  Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on
the effectiveness of the Funds internal control over financial reporting.
The management of the Funds is responsible for establishing and
maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting.
 In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by
 management are required to assess the expected benefits and related
 costs of controls. A companys internal control over financial
 reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance
 regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation
 of financial statements for external purposes in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles.  A companys
internal control over financial reporting
includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the
maintenance of records that, in reasonable
detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of the assets of the company; (2)
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded
as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, and that receipts and expenditures
of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations
 of management and trustees of the
company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention
or timely detection of unauthorized
acquisition, use or disposition of a companys assets that could
have a material effect on the financial
statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control
over financial reporting may not prevent or detect
misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness
 to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
 inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree
 of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 A deficiency in internal control over financial reporting exists
 when the design or operation of a control does not allow management
 or employees, in the normal course of performing their
 assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a
 timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a
 combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial
 reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that
a material misstatement of the companys annual or interim
financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a
timely basis.
Our consideration of the Funds internal control over financial
 reporting was for the limited purpose described
in the first paragraph and would not necessarily disclose all
deficiencies in internal control over financial
reporting that might be material weaknesses under standards
established by the PCAOB. However, we noted no
deficiencies in the Funds internal control over financial
reporting and its operation, including controls over
safeguarding securities, that we consider to be material
weaknesses as defined above as of October 31, 2021.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of
the Board of Trustees of Nationwide Mutual Funds
and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not
intended to be and should not be used by anyone other
than these specified parties.
