Dear Sirs:
Enclosed is a copy of Form N-17f-2, along with our related report,
dated August 21, 2013, on our examination of the investment
portfolio of Scout Funds as of the close of business on April 30,
2013.
Very truly yours,
Patrick DiStefano
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Trustees of
Scout Funds:
We have examined management's assertion included in the accompanying
Management Statement Regarding Compliance with Certain Provisions of
the Investment Company Act of 1940 that Scout Funds (the "Trust"),
comprising the Scout Mid Cap Fund, Scout Small Cap Fund, Scout
International Fund, Scout International Discovery Fund, Scout Global
Equity Fund, Scout Core Bond Fund, Scout Core Plus Bond Fund, Scout
Unconstrained Bond Fund, Scout Emerging Markets Fund, and Scout Low
Duration Bond Fund (each a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds"),
complied with the requirements of subsections (b) and (c) of Rule
17f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("the Act") as of
April 30, 2013. Management is responsible for the Trust's compliance
with those requirements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on management's assertion about the Trust's compliance based on our
examination.
Our examination was conducted in accordance with attestation
standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States), and accordingly, included examining on a test
basis, evidence about the Trust's compliance with those requirements
and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in
the circumstances. Included among our procedures were the following
tests performed as of April 30, 2013, and with respect to agreement
of security purchases and sales, for the period from March 31, 2013
(the date of our last examination) through April 30, 2013:
Confirmation of all securities held by institutions in book entry
form with The Depository Trust Company, Federal Reserve Bank of
Kansas City, Fidelity Investments, Federated Investors, and Citibank
Global Transaction Services;
Reconciliation of all such securities to the books and records
of each of the Funds and the
Custodian (UMB Bank, n.a., an affiliated entity); and
Agreement of 25 security purchases and 25 security sales or
maturities since our last examination from the books and records of
the corresponding Funds to the source documentation from the
brokers.
We believe that our examination provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion. Our examination does not provide a legal determination on
the Trust's compliance with specified requirements.
In our opinion, management's assertion that the Trust complied with
the requirements of subsections (b) and (c) of Rule 17f-2 of the
Investment Company Act of 1940 as of April 30, 2013, with respect to
securities reflected in the investment account of the Trust is
fairly stated, in all material respects.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of
management and the Board of Trustees of Scout Funds and the
Securities and Exchange Commission and is not intended to be and
should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.
