REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC
ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of
The Destra Multi-Alternative Fund:
In planning and performing our audit of the financial
statements of Destra Multi-Alternative Fund (formerly
known as Multi-Strategy Growth & Income Fund) (the
"Fund") as of and for the year ended February 28, 2019,
in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB),
we considered the Funds 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 consolidated 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 Funds internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
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 funds internal control over financial reporting
is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation of consolidated 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 consolidated 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 Trustees of the fund; 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 consolidated 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 funds annual or interim consolidated
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
PCAOB. 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 February 28, 2019.
This report is intended solely for the information and use
of management and the Board of Trustees 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.
