HUNDREDFOLD ICL LETTER
REPORT OF
INDEPENDENT
REGISTERED PUBLIC
ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders
of Hundredfold Select
Alternative Fund and
Board of Trustees of
Advisors Preferred
Trust
In planning and performing our audit of the consolidated financial
statements of Hundredfold Select Alternative Fund (the Fund), a
series of Advisors Preferred Trust, as of and for the year ended
August 31, 2023, 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 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 financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). 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 GAAP, 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 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 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 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 over safeguarding securities,
that we consider to be a material weakness as defined above as of
August 31, 2023.
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.
