Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and
Board of Trustees of CION Ares Diversified Credit Fund

In planning and performing our audit of the financial
statements of CION Ares Diversified Credit Fund (the Fund)
as of and for the year ended October 31, 2019, in accordance
with the standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States), we considered the Fund's
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-CEN, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund's
internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we
express no such opinion.
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 fund's 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 U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles. A fund's 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 fund; (2) provide reasonable assurance that
transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of
financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and
expenditures of the fund are being made only in accordance
with authorizations of management and directors of the fund;
and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or
timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or
disposition of a fund's 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 fund's annual or interim financial
statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Our consideration of the Fund's 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 that might be material weaknesses under
standards established by the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States). However, we noted no
deficiencies in the Fund's internal control over financial
reporting and its operation, including controls over
safeguarding securities, that we consider to be a material
weakness as defined above as of October 31, 2019.

management and the Board of Trustees of CION Ares
Diversified Credit Fund and the Securities and Exchange
Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used
