REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Trustees of
General Electric RSP U.S. Equity Fund and General Electric RSP Income Fund
We have examined managements assertion, included in the accompanying Management Statement Regarding Compliance With Certain Provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940, that the General Electric RSP U.S. Equity Fund and General Electric RSP Income Fund (the Funds) complied with the requirements of subsections (b) and (c) of Rule 17f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as of September 30, 2017. Management is responsible for the Funds compliance with those requirements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on managements assertion about the Funds compliance based on our examination.
Our examination was conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Funds 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 September 30, 2017, and with respect to agreement of security purchases and sales, for the period from July 1, 2017 through September 30, 2017:
| Confirmation of all securities maintained by State Street Bank & Trust Company (the Custodian); |
| Confirmation of all securities held by the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston and The Depository Trust Company in book entry form; |
| Reconciliation of all such securities to the books and records of the Funds and the Custodian |
| Agreement of 4 security purchases and 4 security sales since the date of the last exam from the books and records of the Funds to broker confirmations |
We believe that our examination provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our examination does not provide a legal determination on the Funds compliance with specified requirements.
In our opinion, managements assertion that the General Electric RSP U.S. Equity Fund and General Electric RSP Income Fund complied with the requirements of subsections (b) and (c) of Rule 17f-2 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 as of September 30, 2017, with respect to securities reflected in the investment account of the Funds 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 the General Electric RSP U.S. Equity Fund and General Electric RSP Income 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.
