AUDIT LETTER
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Putnam Municipal
Opportunities Trust:
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements
of Putnam Municipal Opportunities Trust (the "Fund") as of and
for the year ended April 30, 2025, in accordance with the
standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(United States) (PCAOB), 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 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 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 a 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 company'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 PCAOB. 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
April 30, 2025.
This report is intended solely for the information
and use of the Board of Trustees of Putnam Municipal
Opportunities Trust and the Securities and Exchange
Commission and is not intended to be and should not
be used by anyone other than these specified parties.
