EX-99 3 audit.txt AUDIT Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Auditors To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of UBS PACE Select Advisors Trust In planning and performing our audits of the financial statements of UBS PACE Select Advisors Trust (comprising respectively, UBS PACE Money Market Investments, UBS PACE Government Securities Fixed Income Investments, UBS PACE Intermediate Fixed Income Investments, UBS PACE Strategic Fixed Income Investments, UBS PACE Municipal Fixed Income Investments, UBS PACE Global Fixed Income Investments, UBS PACE Large Co Value Equity Investments, UBS PACE Large Co Growth Equity Investments, UBS PACE Small/Medium Co Value Equity Investments, UBS PACE Small/Medium Co Growth Equity Investments, UBS PACE International Equity Investments and UBS PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Investments) for the year ended July 31, 2004, we considered its internal control, including control activities for safeguarding securities, in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and to comply with the requirements of Form N-SAR, not to provide assurance on the internal control. The management of UBS PACE Select Advisors Trust is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal control. In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of controls. Generally, controls that are relevant to an audit pertain to the entitys objective of preparing financial statements for external purposes that are fairly presented in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Those controls include the safeguarding of assets against unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition. Because of inherent limitations in internal control, error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of internal control to future periods is subject to the risk that it may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the effectiveness of the design and operation may deteriorate. Our consideration of internal control would not necessarily disclose all matters in internal control that might be material weaknesses under standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that misstatements caused by error or fraud in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functionscondition in which the design or operation of one or more of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that misstatements caused by error or fraud in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. However, we noted no matters involving internal control and its operation, including controls for safeguarding securities, that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined above at July 31, 2004. This report is intended solely for the information and use of management, the Shareholders and the Board of Trustees of UBS PACE Select Advisors 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.
