Dear Ms. Sobotka:

We are providing the responses to your comment of November 5, 2015, to the United States Brent Oil Fund, LP (“BNO”), on BNO’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. Your comment is set forth below, followed by BNO’s response.

Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, page 58

1. We note that management assessed your internal control over financial reporting using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control Integrated Framework. Please tell us and revise future filings to disclose whether you applied the 1992 or 2013 COSO framework in your assessment. Reference is made to Item 308(a)(2) of Regulation S-K.

Response: BNO respectfully advises the Staff that in 2014, management evaluated internal controls over financial reporting based on criteria established in the 1992 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by COSO. Management will be using the 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by COSO in the assessment of internal controls over financial reporting for 2015 and future years and BNO will clearly identify the framework used in future filings.
