Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
Virtus Global Multi-Sector Income Fund:
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements
of Virtus Global Multi-Sector Income Fund, hereafter referred to
as (the "Fund") as of and for the year ended November 30, 2017,
in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States), we considered the Fund's
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-SAR, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on
the effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial
reporting.
The management of the Fund 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 fund's 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
fund's 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 fund; (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 fund are being made only in
accordance with authorizations of management and trustees of the
fund; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention
or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or
disposition of a fund's 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 Fund's annual or interim financial
statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Our consideration of the Fund's 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 Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). However, we noted no
deficiencies in the Fund's 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 November 30, 2017.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of
management and the Board of Trustees of Virtus Global Multi-
Sector Income Fund and the Securities and Exchange Commission and
is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than
these specified parties.
