INTERNAL CONTROL RPT

NCEN_9994503186884069.txt
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting
Firm
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholder of
Weiss Strategic Interval Fund.:
In planning and performing our audit of the financial
statements of Weiss Strategic Interval Fund. (hereafter
referred to as the "Fund") as of and for the period
February 1, 2018 (commencement of operations) to
December 31, 2018, 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-CEN, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness
of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
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
company'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 company'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 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 directors of the company; and (3)
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or
timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or
disposition of the company'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
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 a material weakness as
defined above as of December 31, 2018.
This report is intended solely for the information and
use of management and the Board of Trustees of the
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.

BEFORE THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940
Release No. 33124 / June 18, 2018
In the Matter of
WEISS STRATEGIC INTERVAL FUND
WEISS MULTI-STRATEGY ADVISERS LLC
Jeffrey Dillabough
Weiss Multi-Strategy Advisers LLC
320 Park Avenue
New York, NY 10022
(812-14832)
ORDER UNDER SECTIONS 6(c) AND 23(c)(3) OF THE
INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940 GRANTING AN
EXEMPTION FROM CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF RULE 23c-3
UNDER THE ACT
Weiss Strategic Interval Fund and Weiss Multi-Strategy
Advisers LLC filed an application on October 11, 2017,
and an amendment to the application on March 19,
2018. Applicants requested an order under sections 6(c)
and 23(c)(3) of the Act for an exemption from certain
provisions of rule 23c-3 under the Act. The order would
permit certain registered closed-end management
investment companies to make repurchase offers on a
monthly basis.
On May 21, 2018, a notice of the filing of the application
was issued (Investment Company Act Release No.
33101). The notice gave interested persons an
opportunity to request a hearing and stated that an
order disposing of the application would be issued
unless a hearing was ordered. No request for a hearing
has been filed, and the Commission has not ordered a
hearing.
The matter has been considered and it is found, on the
basis of the information set forth in the application, as
amended, that granting the requested exemption is
appropriate in the public interest, and consistent with
the protection of investors and the purposes fairly
intended by the policy and provisions of the Act.
It is further found that the proposed purchases will be
made in a manner or on a basis which does not unfairly
discriminate against any holders of the class or classes
of securities to be purchased.
Accordingly, in the matter of Weiss Strategic Interval
Fund and Weiss Multi-Strategy Advisers LLC (File No.
812-14832),
IT IS ORDERED, under sections 6(c) and 23(c)(3) of the
Act, that the requested exemption from certain
provisions of rule 23c-3 is granted, effective forthwith,
subject to the conditions contained in the application,
as amended. For the Commission, by the Division of
Investment Management, under delegated authority.
