Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
The Gabelli Convertible and Income Securities Fund Inc.:
In planning and performing our audit of the financial
statements of The Gabelli Convertible and Income Securities
Fund Inc. (the "Fund") as of and for the year ended December
31, 2015, 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 directors
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 December 31, 2015.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of
management and the Board of Directors 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.
