      Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm


To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
     Credit Suisse High Yield Bond Fund

In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements
of Credit Suisse High Yield Bond Fund (the "Fund") for the year
ended October 31, 2004, we considered its internal control,
including control activities for safeguarding securities, in
order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of
expressing our opinion on the financial statements and to comply
with the requirements of Form N-SAR, not to provide assurance on
internal control.

The management of the Fund is responsible for establishing and
maintaining internal control.  In fulfilling this responsibility,
estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the
expected benefits and related costs of controls.  Generally,
controls that are relevant to an audit pertain to the entity's
objective of preparing financial statements for external purposes
that are fairly presented in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.  Those controls include the safeguarding
of assets against unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition.

Because of inherent limitations in internal control, errors or
fraud may occur and not be detected.  Also, projection of any
evaluation of internal control to future periods is subject to
the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes
in conditions or that the effectiveness of their design and
operation may deteriorate.

Our consideration of internal control would not necessarily
disclose all matters in internal control that might be material
weaknesses under standards established by the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  A material weakness,
for purposes of this report, is a condition in which the design
or operation of one or more of the internal control components
does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that misstatements
caused by error or fraud in amounts that would be material in
relation to the financial statements being audited may occur and
not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal
course of performing their assigned functions.  However, we noted
no matters involving internal control and its operation, including
controls for safeguarding securities, that we consider to be material
weaknesses as defined above as of October 31, 2004.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of the
Board of Directors, management and the Securities and Exchange
Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone
other than these specified parties.
