REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Trustees of the GE Institutional Funds:
We have examined management's assertion, included in the accompanying Management
Statement Regarding Compliance With Certain Provisions of the Investment Company
Act of 1940, that the GE Institutional S&P 500 Index Fund (the Fund),complied
with the requirements of subsections (b) and (c) of rule 17f-2 under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Act) as of December 31, 2011. Management
is responsible for the Fund's compliance with those requirements. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on management's assertion about the
Fund's compliance based on our examination.
Our examination was conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (US) and, accordingly, included examining,
on a test basis, evidence about the Fund's 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 December 31, 2011, and with respect to agreement of security purchases
and sales, for the period from September 30, 2011 (the date of our last
examination), through December 31, 2011:
Inspection of the State Street Corporation Investor Services - Global Fund
Accounting and Custody SSAE 16 report as of and for the year ended
September 30, 2012,completed by State Street's Independent Auditors who
issued an unqualified opinion.
Confirmation with State Street Bank & Trust (the Custodian) that no
exceptions exist between the securities held in book entry form by the
Depository Trust Company and the Custodian.
Confirmation of all securities hypothecated, pledged, placed in escrow, or
out for transfer with brokers, pledgees, or transfer agents
Reconciliation of all such securities to the books and records of the Fund
and the Custodian
Agreement of five (5) security purchases and five (5) security sales or
maturities since our last report from the books and records of the Fund 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 Fund's compliance with
specified requirements.
In our opinion, management's assertion that the Fund complied with the
requirements of subsections (b) and (c) of rule 17f-2 of the Investment Company
Act of 1940 as of December 31, 2011, with respect to securities reflected in
the investment account of the Fund 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 GE Institutional Funds and the Securities and Exchange
Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than
these specified parties.
