Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees and Shareholders of Putnam International Equity
Fund:
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements
of Putnam International Equity Fund (the Fund) as of and for the
year ended June 30, 2013, in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), 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 SAR, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds internal control over
financial reporting. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on
the effectiveness of the Funds internal control over financial
reporting.
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. 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 company; (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 and trustees of the
company; 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 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 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 over financial reporting 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 over safeguarding
securities, that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined
above as of June 30, 2013.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of
management and the Board of Trustees of Putnam International
Equity 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.

77L New Accounting Pronouncement
In January 2013, ASU 2013 01, Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures
about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, amended ASU No. 2011 11,
Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The ASUs
create new disclosure requirements requiring entities to disclose
both gross and net information for derivatives and other financial
instruments that are either offset in the Statement of assets and
liabilities or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement
or similar agreement. The disclosure requirements are effective for
annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 and
interim periods within those annual periods. Putnam Management is
currently evaluating the application of ASUs 2013 01 and 2011 11
and their impact, if any, on the funds financial statements.

Shareholders can open a fund account with as little as $500 and
make subsequent investments in any amount. The minimum investment

checking or savings account. Currently, Putnam is waiving the
minimum, but reserves the right to reject initial investments
under the minimum.
