Accordingly,we express no such opinion. The management ofthe Fundis 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 fundsinternal 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 funds 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 of the fund and trustees of the trust; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of a funds 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 becomeinadequate 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 a funds annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Our consideration of the Funds 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 Funds internal control over financial reporting and its operation, including controls for safeguarding securities, that we consider to be a material weakness, as defined above, as of August31,2018. This report is intended solely for the information and use of management, the Board of Trustees of MFS Series Trust XIV and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.
