Post-Effective Amendment No. 139 to Registration Statement on Form N-1A

(Registration Nos.:  33-40682; 811-06312)

Ms. O'Neal:

On behalf of the above-referenced fund
(the "Fund"), by June 29, 2020 we plan to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission")
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, Post-Effective Amendment No.
139 (the "Amendment") to the Fund's Registration Statement on Form N-1A (the "Registration Statement").

The Amendment relates to Post-Effective
Amendment No. 136 ("Amendment No. 136") to the Registration Statement, filed on April 16, 2020, which was filed in order
to add a new series to the Fund, Lazard US Sustainable Equity Portfolio (the "Portfolio"). The Amendment will respond
to comments of the staff of the Commission (the "Staff") on the prospectus included in Amendment No. 136 that were provided
by you via telephone on May 28, 2020 and June 24, 2020 to the undersigned and Andrew Hartman of this office. A correspondence filed
with the Commission on June 23, 2020 responded to the comments provided on May 28, 2020. Set forth below is the further comment
provided on June 24, 2020 and the Fund's response thereto.

For the convenience of the Staff, and
for completeness purposes, the Staff's comment has been restated below in its entirety, and the response is set out immediately
following the comment. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Amendment.

Staff Comment:
We believe that a "Sustainable Investing Risk" factor needs to be added to the section "Summary Section—Principal
Investment Risks."

Response: The
following risk factor has been added to the Amendment in the section "Investment Strategies and Investment Risks—Investment
Risks," with the first two sentences also added as "Sustainable Investing Risk" to "Summary Section—Principal
Investment Risks":

Sustainable
Investing Risk. The Portfolio’s performance is dependent upon, among other things, the success of its investment strategy
as implemented by the Investment Manager (i.e., the performance of the investments purchased pursuant to the investment
strategy). The Portfolio’s investment strategy focuses on investing in companies that satisfy the criteria for being considered
a Sustainable Company (as described above), which may cause the Investment Manager to forgo investments for the Portfolio that
the Investment Manager otherwise believes may be attractive but that are not considered to be Sustainable Companies. Investments
in Sustainable Companies may perform differently than investments in other companies. As a result, the Portfolio may underperform
funds that pursue a different investment strategy, such as a fund that does not focus on investing in Sustainable Companies.

and the revisions to the prospectus are responsive to the Staff's comments. Please telephone the undersigned at 212.969.3722, or

Very truly yours,
