Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and

Board of Directors of Artisan Partners Funds, Inc.

In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of Artisan
Partners Funds, Inc., comprising Artisan Developing World Fund, Artisan
Focus Fund, Artisan Global Discovery Fund, Artisan Global Equity Fund,
Artisan Global Opportunities Fund, Artisan Global Value Fund, Artisan High
Income Fund, Artisan International Fund, Artisan International Small-Mid
Fund, Artisan International Value Fund, Artisan Mid Cap Fund, Artisan Mid
Cap Value Fund, Artisan Select Equity Fund, Artisan Small Cap Fund, Artisan
Sustainable Emerging Markets Fund and Artisan Value Fund (the Funds) as of
and for the year ended September 30, 2021, in accordance with the standards
of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB),
we considered the Company'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 Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we
express no such opinion.

The management of the Company 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 company'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 company'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 company; (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 company are being
made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of
the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or
timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of a company'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 Company's annual or interim financial statements will not
be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Our consideration of the Company'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 PCAOB. However, we
noted no deficiencies in the Company'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
September 30, 2021.

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