Managed Distribution Policy (unaudited)

The Board of Directors of the Fund has authorized a managed distribution policy (“MDP”) of paying monthly distributions at an annual rate set once a year. It is the Board’s intention that a monthly distribution of $0.07 per share be maintained for 12 months beginning with the June 30, 2014 distribution payment. With each distribution, the Fund will issue a notice to shareholders and an accompanying press release which will provide detailed information regarding the amount and composition of the distribution and other information required by the Fund’s MDP exemptive order. The Fund’s Board of Directors may amend or terminate the MDP at any time without prior notice to shareholders; however, at this time, there are no reasonably foreseeable circumstances that might cause the termination of the MDP. You should not draw any conclusions about the Fund’s investment performance from the amount of distributions or from the terms of the Fund’s MDP.

Distribution Disclosure Classification (unaudited)

The Fund’s policy is to provide investors with a stable monthly distribution out of current income, supplemented by realized capital gains and, to the extent necessary, paid-in capital.

The Fund is subject to U.S. corporate, tax and securities laws. Under U.S. tax rules, the amount applicable to the Fund and character of distributable income for each fiscal period depends on the actual exchange rates during the entire year between the U.S. Dollar and the currencies in which Fund assets are denominated and on the aggregate gains and losses realized by the Fund during the entire year.

Therefore, the exact amount of distributable income for each fiscal year can only be determined as of the end of the Fund’s fiscal year, October 31. Under Section 19 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), the Fund is required to indicate the sources of certain distributions to shareholders. The estimated distribution composition may vary from month to month because it may be materially impacted by future income, expenses and realized gains and losses on securities and fluctuations in the value of the currencies in which the Fund’s assets are denominated.

The distributions for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2014 consisted of 100% net investment income.

In January 2015, a Form 1099-DIV will be sent to shareholders, which will state the amount and composition of distributions and provide information with respect to their appropriate tax treatment for the 2014 calendar year.

Dividend Reinvestment and Direct Stock Purchase Plan (unaudited)

Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (“Computershare”), the Fund’s transfer agent, sponsors and administers a Dividend Reinvestment and Direct Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”), which is available to shareholders.

The Plan allows registered stockholders and first time investors to buy and sell shares and automatically reinvest dividends and capital gains through the transfer agent. This is a cost-effective way to invest in the Fund.

Please note that for both purchases and reinvestment purposes, shares will be purchased in the open market at the current share price and cannot be issued directly by the Fund.

For more information about the Plan and a brochure that includes the terms and conditions of the Plan, please call Computershare at 1-800-647-0584 or visit www.computershare.com/buyaberdeen.

Letter to Shareholders (unaudited)

Dear Shareholder,

We present this Annual Report which covers the activities of Aberdeen Global Income Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) for the year ended October 31, 2014. The Fund’s principal investment objective is to provide high current income by investing primarily in fixed income securities. As a secondary investment objective, the Fund seeks capital appreciation, but only when consistent with its principal investment objective.

Total Return Performance

The Fund’s total return, based on net asset value (“NAV”) net of fees, was 2.1% for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2014 and 7.7% per annum since inception, assuming the reinvestment of dividends and distributions. The Fund’s total return for the year ended October 31, 2014 and per annum since inception is based on the reported NAV on each annual period end.

Share Price and NAV

For the one year ended October 31, 2014, based on market price, the Fund’s total return was 3.0% assuming reinvestment of dividends and distributions. The Fund’s share price decreased by 5.4% over the year ended October 31, 2014, from $11.15 on October 31, 2013 to $10.55 on October 31, 2014. The Fund’s share price on October 31, 2014 represented a discount of 8.2% to the NAV per share of $11.49 on that date, compared with a discount of 9.0% to the NAV per share of $12.25 on October 31, 2013.

Credit Quality

As of October 31, 2014, 68.5% of the Fund’s portfolio was invested in securities where either the issue or the issuer was rated A or better by Standard & Poor’s¹ or Moody’s Investors Services, Inc.², or, if unrated, judged by Aberdeen Asset Management Asia Limited (the “Investment Manager”) to be of equivalent quality.

Managed Distribution Policy

Distributions to common shareholders for the twelve months ended October 31, 2014 totaled $0.93 per share, which includes a special distribution of $0.09 per share declared on December 20, 2013 as well as the monthly managed distribution of $0.07 per share. Based on the share price of $10.55 on October 31, 2014, the distribution rate over the 12-month period ended October 31, 2014 was 8.8%.

Since all distributions are paid after deducting applicable withholding taxes, the effective distribution rate may be higher for those U.S. investors who are able to claim a tax credit.

On November 11, 2014 and December 9, 2014, the Fund announced that it will pay, on November 28, 2014 and January 12, 2015, a distribution of US $0.07 per share to all shareholders of record as of November 24, 2014 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

The Fund’s policy is to provide investors with a stable monthly distribution out of current income, supplemented by realized capital gains and, to the extent necessary, paid-in capital, which is a non-taxable return of capital. It is the Board’s intention that a monthly distribution of $0.07 per share be maintained for twelve months, beginning with the June 30, 2014 distribution payment. This policy is subject to regular review at the Board’s quarterly meetings, unless market conditions require an earlier evaluation. The next annual review is scheduled to take place in June 2015.

Open Market Repurchase Program

The Fund’s policy is generally to buy back Fund shares on the open market when the Fund trades at certain discounts to NAV. During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2014 and fiscal year ended October 31, 2013, the Fund repurchased 208,590 and 0 shares, respectively.

Revolving Credit Facility and Leverage

The Fund’s revolving credit facility with The Bank of Nova Scotia was renewed for a 3-year term on February 28, 2014. The outstanding balance on the loan as of October 31, 2014 was $40,000,000. Under the terms of the loan facility and applicable regulations, the Fund is required to maintain certain asset coverage ratios for the amount of its outstanding borrowings. The Board regularly reviews the use of leverage by the Fund. The Fund is also authorized to use reverse repurchase agreements as another form of leverage. Subsequent to the fiscal year ended October 31, 2014, the Fund paid down $5,000,000 of the revolving credit facility.

Portfolio Holdings Disclosure

The Fund’s complete schedule of portfolio holdings is included in the Fund’s semi-annual and annual reports to shareholders. The Fund files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The Fund’s

Standard & Poor’s credit ratings are expressed as letter grades that range from ‘AAA’ to ‘D’ to communicate the agency’s opinion of relative level of credit risk. Ratings from ‘AA’ to ‘CCC’ may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the major rating categories. The investment grade category is a rating from ‘AAA’ to ‘BBB-’.

Moody’s is an independent, unaffiliated research company that rates fixed income securities. Moody’s assigns ratings on the basis of risk and the borrower’s ability to make interest payments. Typically securities are assigned a rating from ‘Aaa’ to ‘C’, with ‘Aaa’ being the highest quality and ‘C’ the lowest quality.

Market Review

Global bond yields bucked consensus expectations to finish lower over the 12-month period ended October 31, 2014, amid investors’ concerns over slowing economic growth. Most global yield curves also flattened as inflation expectations declined. Volatility was heightened at times mainly due to the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) shifting its monetary policy stance towards ending its quantitative easing program. However, increased asset purchases by the European Central Bank (ECB) and the Bank of Japan to fight disinflationary pressures meant that, overall, liquidity was still being injected into the global financial system. Chinese authorities also reversed course and launched mini-stimulus measures in an effort to prevent a hard landing for the economy. Weaker demand for commodities, particularly from China, led to sharp declines in oil prices over the period. This kept inflation benign across major economies, which gave their central banks breathing space to pause in interest rate normalization. There were also geopolitical flashpoints, including a growing rift between Russia and the West over Ukraine, which led to “tit-for-tat” trade curbs, further weighing on economic activity in Europe. Additionally, there were fears over the spread of the Ebola virus, which increased risk premiums in West Africa, while greater territorial gains by Islamic State (ISIS) radicals were also a concern.

Longer-term bonds outperformed their short-dated counterparts in the U.S., UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand during the reporting period. Yields on 10-year U.S. Treasuries fell more than 20 basis points (bps) or 0.20%–to finish the period at 2.34%. Hard currency emerging market debt outperformed its local currency counterpart for the period. The U.S. dollar appreciated against all G-10¹ currencies as better U.S. economic data brought forward expectations of an interest rate hike. The UK pound was the most resilient G-10 currency as the country’s economy improved, while the Japanese yen was sharply weaker on the back of aggressive monetary stimulus.

The Reserve Bank of Australia kept rates steady amid subdued economic activity and higher unemployment. The central bank avoided further rate cuts due to elevated home prices. Conversely, New Zealand’s central bank hiked its benchmark interest rate four times from 2.5% to 3.5% over the period, citing strong domestic demand and solid employment growth. The inflation rate subsequently slowed unexpectedly to 1.0%, allowing the central bank to pause.

Among key emerging markets, Mexico implemented energy reforms in a bid to open up the sector to private investment. We believe that this may revive investment into the industry, create jobs, boost production of oil and gas, and also help lower energy costs for the important manufacturing sector. The expected impact of the reforms on economic growth and tax revenues led to Standard and Poor’s raising the country’s credit rating to A,² the highest in Latin America (together with Chile). On the other hand, Brazil’s credit rating was downgraded due to its weaker growth outlook. The central bank hiked its benchmark rate to 11.25% in an effort to counter inflationary pressures amid a weak currency and increases to regulated prices. We think that, following Dilma Rousseff’s re-election as president, her selection of the new economic cabinet is key given the threat of further downgrades over fiscal deficits.

Fund performance review

The positive impact of the Fund’s currency overlay on performance for the reporting period partially mitigated the negative effect of emerging market debt (EMD) and Australian and New Zealand bonds. The Fund’s overweight relative to its blended benchmark to EMD enhanced performance, but was outweighed by overall negative security selection. The overweight exposure to Australia and New Zealand also was a detractor.

The Fund uses currency forwards as part of the currency overlay process, in order to position the currency exposure according to the Fund’s ongoing strategy. During the period, the Fund held long New Zealand dollar positions against short Australian dollar positions in order to reduce the risk of Australian dollar weakness on Fund performance over the period. The Fund also continues to hold interest rate swaps to hedge the floating rate leverage in the portfolio in order to move its leverage duration closer to the underlying assets of the Fund.

Outlook

In our view, October 2014 was yet another reminder of the potential for volatility in global markets when many investors are similarly positioned, trading liquidity is a fraction of its pre-credit crisis levels, and distortions from central bank liquidity are in all areas of the market. As that liquidity is removed from the system, we believe that there is significant scope for market moves such as that in October to be repeated. As the U.S. and the UK move closer to rate rises, the ECB appears to be “picking up the baton” of loose monetary policy.

The G-10 is a group of the 10 major industrialized countries whose mission is to create a more stable world economic trading environment through monetary and fiscal policies. Member countries include Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Sweden, the UK and the US.

Standard & Poor’s credit ratings express the agency’s opinion about the ability and willingness of an issuer, such as a corporation or state or city government, to meet its financial obligations in full and on time. Typically, ratings are expressed as letter grades that range, for example, from “AAA” to “D” to communicate the agency’s opinion of relative level of credit risk. Ratings from “AA” to “CCC” may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the major rating categories.

Aberdeen Global Income Fund, Inc.

Report of the Investment Manager (unaudited) (continued)

It still remains to be seen, in our opinion, whether the market will push the central bank into outright purchases of sovereign bonds, or if that is legal under European Union treaties. However, without it, we think that the ECB seems unlikely to achieve its goal of expanding its balance sheet by €1 trillion (roughly US$1.25 trillion). In our view, the market reaction if the ECB fails to deliver is another question altogether. In terms of credit market performance, we believe that a return to this year’s tightest yield spread levels is unlikely; however, we anticipate that the market may reverse some of the recent weakness by the end of 2014.

In Australia, we believe that the cash rate could remain on hold for a prolonged period as elevated housing prices may prevent the central bank from cutting rates, even amid subdued economic growth. The transition away from mining, as well as the rebalancing of business investment towards other sectors, may progress at a measured pace, in our opinion, supported by residential investments and net exports. We also foresee a gradual but slow recovery in consumption, reflecting consumer caution and low wage growth. Regarding New Zealand, strong growth from the start of the year began to moderate following 100 bps of rate hikes. However, we feel that the rebuilding of Christchurch following the devastating earthquake of February 2011 may continue to support growth for the next few years. In our opinion, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand will most likely keep interest rates steady as inflation has been surprisingly low, and we believe that it will wait for the U.S. Federal Reserve to increase the federal funds rate first.

We believe that emerging market debt may benefit from lower U.S. rates via the continued “search for yield,” but an increase in volatility amid the changing monetary policy expectations may prove to be a headwind. The decline in global commodity prices affects emerging markets in different ways, but puts additional pressure on exporting countries, whose fiscal budgets have been dependent upon higher oil prices over the years. We think that the Ebola pandemic also reaffirms the added risks to investing in sub-Saharan African credits. Ongoing currency weakness is also a risk, in our view, as market sentiment remains negative.

Loan Facility and the Use of Leverage

The Fund utilizes leverage to seek to increase the yield for its shareholders. The amounts borrowed from the loan facility may be invested to return higher rates than the rates in the Fund’s portfolio. However, the cost of leverage could exceed the income earned by the Fund on the proceeds of such leverage. To the extent that the Fund is unable to invest the proceeds from the use of leverage in assets which pay interest at a rate which exceeds the rate paid on the leverage, the yield on the Fund’s common stock will decrease. In addition, in the event of a general market decline in the value of

assets in which the Fund invests, the effect of that decline will be magnified in the Fund because of the additional assets purchased with the proceeds of the leverage. Non-recurring expenses in connection with the implementation of the loan facility will reduce the Fund’s performance.

The Fund’s leveraged capital structure creates special risks not associated with unleveraged funds having similar investment objectives and policies. The funds borrowed pursuant to the loan facility may constitute a substantial lien and burden by reason of their prior claim against the income of the Fund and against the net assets of the Fund in liquidation. The Fund is not permitted to declare dividends or other distributions in the event of default under the loan facility. In the event of default under the loan facility, the lender has the right to cause a liquidation of the collateral (i.e., sell portfolio securities and other assets of the Fund) and, if any such default is not cured, the lender may be able to control the liquidation as well. The loan facility has a term of 3-years and is not a perpetual form of leverage; there can be no assurance that the loan facility will be available for renewal on acceptable terms, if at all.

The credit agreement governing the loan facility includes usual and customary covenants for this type of transaction. These covenants impose on the Fund asset coverage requirements, Fund composition requirements and limits on certain investments, such as illiquid investments, which are more stringent than those imposed on the Fund by the 1940 Act. The covenants or guidelines could impede the Investment Manager, Aberdeen Asset Management Limited (the “Investment Adviser”) or Aberdeen Asset Managers Limited (the “Sub-Adviser”) from fully managing the Fund’s portfolio in accordance with the Fund’s investment objective and policies. Furthermore, non-compliance with such covenants or the occurrence of other events could lead to the cancellation of the loan facility. The covenants also include a requirement that the Fund maintain a NAV of no less than $75,000,000.

Prices and availability of leverage are extremely volatile in the current market environment. The Board regularly reviews the use of leverage by the Fund and may explore other forms of leverage. The Fund is also authorized to use reverse repurchase agreements as another form of leverage. A reverse repurchase agreement involves the sale of a security, with an agreement to repurchase the same or substantially similar securities at an agreed upon price and date. Whether such a transaction produces a gain for the Fund depends upon the costs of the agreements and the income and gains of the securities purchased with the proceeds received from the sale of the security. If the income and gains on the securities purchased fail to exceed the costs, the Fund’s NAV will decline faster than otherwise would be the case. Reverse repurchase agreements, as with any

Aberdeen Global Income Fund, Inc.

leveraging techniques, may increase the Fund’s return; however, such transactions also increase the Fund’s risks in down markets.

Interest Rate Swaps

The Fund may enter into interest rate swaps to efficiently gain or hedge interest rate or currency risk. As of October 31, 2014, the Fund held interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $40,000,000, which represented 100% of the Fund’s total borrowings. Under the terms of the agreements currently in effect, the Fund either receives a floating rate of interest (three month USD-LIBOR BBA rate) and pays fixed rates of interest for the terms or pays a floating rate of interest and receives a fixed rate of interest for the terms, and based upon the notional amounts set forth below:

A significant risk associated with interest rate swaps is the risk that the counterparty may default or file for bankruptcy, in which case the Fund would bear the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under the swap agreements. There can be no assurance that the Fund will have an interest rate swap in place at any given time nor can there be any assurance that, if an interest rate swap is in place, it will be successful in hedging the Fund’s interest rate risk with respect to the loan facility. The implementation of this strategy is at the discretion of the Leverage Committee of the Board.

Benchmark		2.8%		2.9%		6.4%		6.9%

Returns represent past performance. Total investment return at net asset value is based on changes in the net asset value of Fund shares and assumes reinvestment of dividends and distributions, if any, at market prices pursuant to the dividend reinvestment program sponsored by the Fund’s transfer agent. Total investment return at market value is based on changes in the market price at which the Fund’s shares traded on the NYSE MKT during the period and assumes reinvestment of dividends and distributions, if any, at market prices pursuant to the dividend reinvestment program sponsored by the Fund’s transfer agent. Because the Fund’s shares trade in the stock market based on investor demand, the Fund may trade at a price higher or lower than its NAV. Therefore, returns are calculated based on both market price and NAV. The Fund’s total return is based on the reported NAV on each annual period end. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance information provided does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on distributions received from the Fund. The current performance of the Fund may be lower or higher than the figures shown. The Fund’s yield, return, market price and NAV will fluctuate.

(b)

Total investment return based on market value is calculated assuming that shares of the Fund’s common stock were purchased at the closing market price as of the beginning of the period, dividends, capital gains, and other distributions were reinvested as provided for in the Fund’s dividend reinvestment plan and then sold at the closing market price per share on the last day of the period. The computation does not reflect any sales commission investors may incur in purchasing or selling shares of the Fund. The total investment return based on the net asset value is similarly computed except that the Fund’s net asset value is substituted for the closing market value.

(c)

The total return shown above includes the impact of financial statement rounding of the NAV per share and/or financial statement adjustments.

(d)

Asset coverage ratio is calculated by dividing net assets plus the amount of any borrowings, for investment purposes by the amount of any long-term debt obligations.

Notes to Financial Statements

October 31, 2014

1. Organization

Aberdeen Global Income Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) was incorporated in Maryland on June 28, 1991, as a closed-end, non-diversified management investment company. The Fund’s principal investment objective is to provide high current income by investing primarily in fixed income securities. As a secondary investment objective, the Fund seeks capital appreciation, but only when consistent with its principal investment objective. As a non-fundamental policy, under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in debt securities. This 80% investment policy is a non-fundamental policy of the Fund and may be changed by the Fund’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) upon 60 days’ prior written notice to shareholders. The Fund’s investments are divided into three categories: Developed Markets, Investment Grade Developing Markets and Sub-Investment Grade Developing Markets. “Developed Markets” are those countries contained in the Citigroup World Government Bond Index, New Zealand, Luxembourg and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. As of October 31, 2014, securities of the following countries comprised the Citigroup World Government Bond Index: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, and the United States. “Investment Grade Developing Markets” are those countries whose sovereign debt is rated not less than Baa3 by Moody’s Investors Services Inc. (“Moody’s”) or BBB- by Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) or comparably rated by another appropriate nationally or internationally recognized ratings agency. “Sub-Investment Grade Developing Markets” are those countries that are not Developed Markets or Investment Grade Developing Markets. Under normal circumstances, at least 60% of the Fund’s total assets are invested in fixed income securities of issuers in Developed Markets or Investment Grade Developing Markets, whether or not denominated in the currency of such country; provided, however, that the Fund invests at least 40% of its total assets in fixed income securities of issuers in Developed Markets. The Fund may invest up to 40% of its total assets in fixed income securities of issuers in Sub-Investment Grade Developing Markets, whether or not denominated in the currency of such country. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objectives. The ability of issuers of debt securities held by the Fund to meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments in a specific industry, country or region.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in

the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. Dollars and the U.S. Dollar is used as both the functional and reporting currency. However, the Australian Dollar, Canadian Dollar and British Pound are the functional currencies for U.S. federal tax purposes.

a. Security Valuation:

The Fund values its securities at current market value or fair value consistent with regulatory requirements. “Fair value” is defined in the Fund’s valuation and liquidity procedures as the price that could be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants without a compulsion to contract at the measurement date.

Long-term debt and other fixed-income securities are valued at the last quoted or evaluated bid price on the valuation date provided by an independent pricing service provider. If there are no current day bids, the security is valued at the previously applied bid. Short-term debt securities (such as commercial paper, and U.S. treasury bills) having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Debt and other fixed-income securities are generally determined to be Level 2 investments.

Exchange traded derivatives are generally Level 1 investments and over-the-counter derivatives are generally Level 2 investments.

In the event that a security’s market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable, the security is valued at fair value as determined by the Fund’s Pricing Committee, taking into account the relevant factors and surrounding circumstances using valuation policies and procedures approved by the Board. A security that has been fair valued by the Pricing Committee may be classified as Level 2 or 3 depending on the nature of the inputs.

In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the Fund discloses the fair value of its investments using a three-level hierarchy that classifies the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy assigns Level 1 measurements to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets, Level 2 measurements to valuations based upon other significant observable inputs, including adjusted quoted prices in

Aberdeen Global Income Fund, Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

October 31, 2014

active markets for identical assets, and Level 3 measurements to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, which are based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based

upon the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three-level hierarchy of inputs is summarized below:

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments;

Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, and credit risk); or

Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

A summary of standard inputs is listed below:


Security Type		Standard Inputs

Debt and other fixed-income securities		Reported trade data, broker-dealer price quotations, benchmark yields, issuer spreads on comparable securities, credit quality, yield, and maturity.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

October 31, 2014

For movements between the Levels within the fair value hierarchy, the Fund has adopted a policy of recognizing transfers at the end of each period. During the year ended October 31, 2014, there were no transfers between Level 1, 2, or 3. For the year ended October 31, 2014, there have been no significant changes to the fair valuation methodologies.

b. Repurchase Agreements:

The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement. It is the Fund’s policy that its custodian/counterparty segregate the underlying collateral securities, the value of which exceeds the principal amount of the repurchase transaction, including accrued interest. The repurchase price generally equals the price paid by the Fund plus interest negotiated on the basis of current short-term rates. To the extent that any repurchase transaction exceeds one business day, the collateral is valued on a daily basis to determine its adequacy. Under the Master Repurchase Agreement, if the counterparty defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with respect to the counterparty of the security, realization of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or limited. Repurchase agreements are subject to contractual netting arrangements with the counterparty, Fixed Income Clearing Corp. For additional information on the Fund’s repurchase agreement, see the Portfolio of Investments. The Fund held a repurchase agreement of $11,488,000 as of October 31, 2014. The value of the related collateral exceeded the value of the repurchase agreement at October 31, 2014.

c. Restricted Securities:

Restricted securities are privately-placed securities whose resale is restricted under U.S. securities laws. The Fund may invest in restricted securities, including unregistered securities eligible for resale without registration pursuant to Rule 144A and privately-placed securities of U.S. and non-U.S. issuers offered outside the U.S. without registration pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”). Rule 144A securities may be freely traded among certain qualified institutional investors, such as the Fund, but resale of such securities in the U.S. is permitted only in limited circumstances.

d. Foreign Currency Translation:

Foreign securities, currencies, and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. Dollars at the exchange rate of said currencies against the U.S. Dollar, as of the Valuation Time, as provided by an independent pricing service approved by the Board. The Valuation Time is as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (usually 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time).

Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. Dollars on the following basis:

(i)

market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities – at the exchange rates at the current daily rates of exchange; and

(ii)

purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses – at the rate of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.

The Fund isolates that portion of the results of operations arising from changes in the foreign exchange rates due to the fluctuations in the market prices of the securities held at the end of the reporting period. Similarly, the Fund isolates the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of portfolio securities sold during the reporting period.

Net exchange gain/(loss) is realized from sales and maturities of portfolio securities, sales of foreign currencies, settlement of securities transactions, dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books. Net unrealized foreign exchange appreciation/(depreciation) includes changes in the value of portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities arising as a result of changes in the exchange rate. The net realized and unrealized foreign exchange gain/(loss) shown in the composition of net assets represents foreign exchange gain/(loss) for book purposes that may not have been recognized for tax purposes.

Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with those of domestic origin, including unanticipated movements in the value of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. Dollar. Generally, when the U.S. Dollar rises in value against foreign currency, the Fund’s investments denominated in that currency will lose value because its currency is worth fewer U.S. Dollars; the opposite effect occurs if the U.S. Dollar falls in relative value.

e. Derivative Financial Instruments:

The Fund is authorized to use derivatives to manage currency risk, credit risk and interest rate risk and to replicate or as a substitute for physical securities. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the contract or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract. The use of derivative instruments involves, to varying degrees, elements of market risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts:

A forward foreign currency exchange contract (“forward contract”) involves an obligation to purchase and sell a specific currency at a

Aberdeen Global Income Fund, Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

October 31, 2014

future date, which may be any fixed number of days from the date of the contract agreed upon by the parties, at a price set at the time of the contract. Forward contracts are used to manage the Fund’s currency exposure in an efficient manner. They are used to sell unwanted currency exposure that comes with holding securities in a market, or to buy currency exposure where the exposure from holding securities is insufficient to give the desired currency exposure either in absolute terms or relative to the benchmark. The use of forward contracts allows the separation of decision-making between markets and their currencies. The forward contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in market value is recorded by the Fund as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Forward contracts’ prices are received daily from an independent pricing provider. When the forward contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. These realized and unrealized gains and losses are reported on the Statement of Operations. The Fund could be exposed to risks if the counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts or from unanticipated movements in exchange rates. During the year ended October 31, 2014, the Fund held long New Zealand dollar positions against short Australian dollar positions in order to reduce the risk of Australian dollar weakness on Fund performance over the period.

While the Fund may enter into forward contracts to seek to reduce currency exchange rate risks, transactions in such contracts involve certain risks. The Fund could be exposed to risks if the counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in exchange rates. Thus, while the Fund may benefit from such transactions, unanticipated changes in currency prices may result in a poorer overall performance for the Fund than if it had not engaged in any such transactions. Moreover, there may be imperfect correlation between the Fund’s portfolio holdings or securities quoted or denominated in a particular currency and forward contracts entered into by the Fund. Such imperfect correlation may prevent the Fund from achieving a complete hedge, which will expose the Fund to the risk of foreign exchange loss.

Forward contracts are subject to the risks that the counterparts to such contract will default on its obligations. Since a forward foreign currency exchange contract is not guaranteed by an exchange or clearing house, a default on the contract would deprive the Fund of unrealized profits, transaction costs or the benefits of a currency hedge or force the Fund to cover its purchase or sale commitments, if any, at the current market price.

Swaps:

A swap is an agreement that obligates two parties to exchange a series of cash flows at specified intervals based upon or calculated by

reference to changes in specified prices or rates for a specified amount of an underlying asset or notional principal amount. The Fund will enter into swaps only on a net basis, which means that the two payment streams are netted out, with the Fund receiving or paying, as the case may be, only the net amount of the difference between the two payments. Risks may arise as a result of the failure of the counterparty to the swap contract to comply with the terms of the swap contract. The loss incurred by the failure of a counterparty is generally limited to the net interest payment to be received by the Fund, and/or the termination value at the end of the contract. Therefore, the Fund considers the creditworthiness of each counterparty to a swap contract in evaluating potential credit risk. Additionally, risks may arise from unanticipated movements in interest rates or in the value of the underlying reference asset or index. The Fund records unrealized gains/(losses) on a daily basis representing the value and the current net receivable or payable relating to open swap contracts. Net amounts received or paid on the swap contract are recorded as realized gains/(losses). Fluctuations in the value of swap contracts are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized appreciation or depreciation of swap contracts. Realized gains/(losses) from terminated swaps are included in net realized gains/(losses) on swap contracts transactions. During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2014, the Fund used interest rate swaps as a tool to hedge the floating rate leverage of the Fund in order to move its leverage duration closer to the underlying assets of the Fund.

The Fund is a party to International Swap Dealers Association, Inc. Master Agreements (“ISDA Master Agreements”). These agreements are with select counterparties and they govern transactions, including certain over-the-counter derivative and foreign exchange contracts, entered into by the Fund and the counterparty. The ISDA Master Agreements maintain provisions for general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral, and events of default or termination. The occurrence of a specified event of termination may give a counterparty the right to terminate all of its contracts and affect settlement of all outstanding transactions under the applicable ISDA Master Agreement.

Certain swaps entered into after June 10, 2013, including some interest rate swaps, must be cleared pursuant to U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) regulations. As a result, these swaps can no longer be traded over-the-counter and are subject to various regulations and rules of the CFTC. The Fund currently holds one swap that was subject to mandatory clearing and did not enter into any new swaps subject to clearing during the reporting period. In a centrally cleared derivative transaction, the Fund typically enters into the transaction with a financial institution counterparty, and performance of the transaction is effectively guaranteed by a central

clearinghouse, thereby reducing or eliminating the Fund’s exposure to the credit risk of its original counterparty. The Fund will be required to post specified levels of margin with the clearinghouse or at the instruction of the clearinghouse; the margin required by a

clearinghouse may be greater than the margin the Fund would be required to post in an uncleared transaction. Only a limited number of transactions are currently eligible for clearing.

Information about derivatives reflected as of the date of this report is generally indicative of the type of activity for the year ended October 31, 2014. The table below summarizes the weighted average values of derivatives holdings for the fund during the year ended October 31, 2014.


Forward foreign exchange contracts (Average Notional Value)		Futures contracts (Average Notional Value)		Swap contracts (Average Notional Value)
$	10,589,370	$	–	$	40,000,000

The Fund values derivatives at fair value, as described in the results of operations. Accordingly, the Fund does not follow hedge accounting even for derivatives employed as economic hedges.

f. Security Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses:

Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized and unrealized gains/(losses) from security and currency transactions are calculated on the identified cost basis. Interest income and expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are accreted or amortized on an effective yield basis over the estimated lives of the respective securities.

g. Distributions:

The Fund has a managed distribution policy to pay distributions from net investment income supplemented by net realized foreign exchange gains, net realized short-term capital gains and return of capital distributions, if necessary, on a monthly basis. The managed distribution policy is subject to regular review by the Board. The Fund will also declare and pay distributions at least annually from net realized gains on investment transactions and net realized

foreign exchange gains, if any. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Dividends and distributions to shareholders are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for foreign currencies, loss deferrals and recognition of market discount and premium.

h. Federal Income Taxes:

For federal income and excise tax purposes, substantially all of the Fund’s transactions are accounted for using the functional currencies (Australian Dollar, Canadian Dollar or British Pound). Accordingly, realized currency gains/(losses) are realized from changes in the foreign exchange rates against the Australian Dollar or are a result from the repatriation of any of the functional currencies into U.S. Dollars. This may differ substantially from the realized currency gains recognized under GAAP within the financial statements. Furthermore, the Fund’s distribution requirements are calculated on a federal tax basis whereby currency gains/(losses) are considered income and distributed out as such.

The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a “regulated investment company” by complying with the provisions available to certain investment companies, as defined in Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and to make distributions of net investment income and net realized capital gains sufficient to relieve the Fund from all federal income taxes. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Since tax authorities can examine previously filed tax returns, the Fund’s U.S. federal and state tax returns for each of the four fiscal years up to the most recent fiscal year ended October 31 are subject to such review.

i. Cash Flow Information:

The Fund invests in securities and distributes dividends from net investment income and net realized gains on investment and currency transactions which are paid in cash or are reinvested at the discretion of shareholders. These activities are reported in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets and additional information on cash receipts and cash payments is presented in the Statement of Cash Flows. Cash includes domestic and foreign currency but does not include cash at brokers in segregated accounts for financial futures contracts because it is designated as collateral.

3. Agreements and Transactions with Affiliates

a. Investment Manager, Investment Adviser, and Investment Sub-Adviser:

Aberdeen Asset Management Asia Limited (the “Investment Manager”) serves as investment manager to the Fund, pursuant to a management agreement (the “Management Agreement”). Aberdeen Asset Management Limited (the “Investment Adviser”) serves as the investment adviser and Aberdeen Asset Managers Limited (“AAML” or the “Sub-Adviser”), serves as the sub-adviser, pursuant to an advisory agreement and a sub-advisory agreement (the “Sub-Advisory agreement”) respectively. The Investment Manager, the Investment Adviser and the Sub-Adviser are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Aberdeen Asset Management PLC.

The Investment Manager makes investment decisions on behalf of the Fund on the basis of recommendations and information furnished to it by the Investment Adviser, including the selection of and the placement of orders with, brokers and dealers to execute portfolio transactions on behalf of the Fund. The Sub-Adviser manages the portion of the Fund’s assets that the Investment Manager allocates to it.

The Management Agreement provides the Investment Manager with a fee, payable monthly by the Fund, at the following annual rates: 0.65% of the Fund’s average weekly Managed Assets up to $200 million, 0.60% of Managed Assets between $200 million and $500 million, and 0.55% of Managed Assets in excess of $500 million. Managed Assets is defined in the Management Agreement as net assets plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes.

The Investment Manager pays fees to the Investment Adviser for its services rendered. The Investment Manager informed the Fund that it paid $283,604 to the Investment Adviser, with respect to the Fund, during the year ended October 31, 2014. As compensation for its services under the sub-advisory agreement, the Sub-Adviser received $159,390 in sub-advisory fees, with respect to the Fund, during the year ended October 31, 2014.

b. Fund Administration:

Aberdeen Asset Management Inc. (“AAMI”), an affiliate of the Investment Manager, Investment Adviser and Sub-Adviser, is the Fund’s Administrator, pursuant to an agreement under which AAMI receives a fee, payable monthly by the Fund, at an annual fee rate of 0.125% of the Fund’s average weekly Managed Assets up to $1 billion, 0.10% of the Fund’s average weekly Managed Assets between $1 billion and $2 billion, and 0.075% of the Fund’s average weekly Managed Assets in excess of $2 billion. For the year ended October 31, 2014, AAMI earned $188,515 from the Fund for administration fees.

c. Investor Relations:

Under the terms of an Investor Relations Services Agreement, AAMI serves as the Fund’s investor relations services provider.

Pursuant to the terms of the Investor Relations Services Agreement, AAMI provides, among other things, objective and timely information to shareholders based on publicly-available information; provides information efficiently through the use of technology while offering shareholders immediate access to knowledgeable investor relations representatives; develops and maintains effective communications with investment professionals from a wide variety of firms; creates and maintains investor relations communication materials such as fund manager interviews, films and webcasts, published white papers, magazine and articles and other relevant materials discussing the Fund’s investment results, portfolio positioning and outlook; develops and maintains effective communications with large institutional shareholders; responds to specific shareholder questions; and reports activities and results to the Board and management detailing insight into general shareholder sentiment.

For the year ended October 31, 2014, the Fund incurred fees of approximately $111,333 for investor relations services. Investor relations fees and expenses in the Statement of Operations include certain out-of-pocket expenses.

4. Investment Transactions

Purchases and sales of investment securities (excluding short-term securities) for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2014, were $81,554,735 and $86,745,343, respectively.

5. Capital

The authorized capital of the Fund is 300 million shares of $0.001 par value common stock. During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2014, the fund repurchased 208,590 shares pursuant to its Open Market Repurchase Program, see Note 6 for further information. As of October 31, 2014, there were 9,195,560 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

Aberdeen Global Income Fund, Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

October 31, 2014

In January 2011, the Fund filed a “shelf” registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which permits the Fund to issue up to $60,000,000 in shares of common stock through one or more public offerings including at-the-market offerings (“ATM” offerings) over a three year period. Shares are offered through ATM offerings only when market conditions are considered favorable. Such shares are only issued when the premium to net asset value is greater than the costs associated with the transaction. Any proceeds raised through ATM offerings are used for investment purposes. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2014 and October 31, 2013, there were 0 and 178,334 shares sold respectively through the ATM offering. Offering costs are capitalized as a prepaid expense. When shares are sold, a portion of the cost attributable to those shares will be charged to paid-in capital. Upon expiration of this shelf offering in January, 2015, any remaining prepaid Offering Costs with this registration statement will be expensed to the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2014 and year ended October 31, 2013, offering costs in the amount of $0 and $35,818, respectively were charged to paid-in-capital. These costs are noted on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.

6. Open Market Repurchase Program

On March 1, 2001, the Board approved a stock repurchase program. The Board amended the program on December 12, 2007. The stock repurchase program allows the Fund to repurchase up to 10% of its outstanding common stock in the open market during any 12-month period, if and when the discount to NAV is at least 8%.

For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2014 and fiscal year ended October 31, 2013, the Fund repurchased 208,590 shares and 0 shares, respectively, through this program.

7. Revolving Credit Facility

The Fund’s revolving credit loan facility with The Bank of Nova Scotia was renewed for a 3-year term on February 28, 2014. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2014, the balance of the loan outstanding was $40,000,000, and the average interest rate on the loan facility was 1.14%. The average balance for the fiscal year was $40,000,000. The interest expense is accrued on a daily basis and is payable to The Bank of Nova Scotia on a monthly basis.

The amounts borrowed from the loan facility may be invested to return higher rates than the rates in the Fund’s portfolio. However, the cost of leverage could exceed the income earned by the Fund on the proceeds of such leverage. To the extent that the Fund is unable to invest the proceeds from the use of leverage in assets which pay interest at a rate which exceeds the rate paid on the leverage, the yield on the Fund’s common stock will decrease. In addition, in the event of a general market decline in the value of assets in which the Fund invests, the

effect of that decline will be magnified in the Fund because of the additional assets purchased with the proceeds of the leverage. Non-recurring expenses in connection with the implementation of the loan facility will reduce the Fund’s performance.

The Fund’s leveraged capital structure creates special risks not associated with unleveraged funds having similar investment objectives and policies. The funds borrowed pursuant to the loan facility may constitute a substantial lien and burden by reason of their prior claim against the income of the Fund and against the net assets of the Fund in liquidation. The Fund is not permitted to declare dividends or other distributions in the event of default under the loan facility. In the event of a default under the loan facility, the lenders have the right to cause a liquidation of the collateral (i.e., sell portfolio securities and other assets of the Fund) and, if any such default is not cured, the lenders may be able to control the liquidation as well. The loan facility has a term of 365 days and is not a perpetual form of leverage; there can be no assurance that the loan facility will be available for renewal on acceptable terms, if at all. Bank loan fees and expenses included in the Statement of Operations include fees for the renewal of the loan facility as well as commitment fees for any portion of the loan facility not drawn upon at any time during the period. During the year ended October 31, 2014, the Fund incurred fees of approximately $4,542.

The credit agreement governing the loan facility includes usual and customary covenants for this type of transaction. These covenants impose on the Fund asset coverage requirements, Fund composition requirements and limits on certain investments, such as illiquid investments, which are more stringent than those imposed on the Fund by the 1940 Act. The covenants or guidelines could impede the Investment Manager, Investment Adviser or Sub-Adviser from fully managing the Fund’s portfolio in accordance with the Fund’s investment objective and policies. Furthermore, non-compliance with such covenants or the occurrence of other events could lead to the cancellation of the loan facility. The covenants also include a requirement that the Fund maintain a net asset value of no less than $75,000,000.

The estimated fair value of the loan facility was calculated, for disclosure purposes, by discounting future cash flows by a rate equal to the current U.S. Treasury rate with an equivalent maturity date, the spread between the U.S. insurance and financial debt rate and the U.S. Treasury rate. The following table shows the maturity date, interest rate, notional/carrying amount and estimated fair value outstanding as of October 31, 2014.

8. Portfolio Investment Risks

a. Credit and Market Risk:

A debt instrument’s price depends, in part, on the credit quality of the issuer, borrower, counterparty, or underlying collateral and can decline in response to changes in the financial condition of the issuer, borrower, counterparty, or underlying collateral, or changes in specific or general market, economic, industry, political, regulatory, geopolitical, or other conditions. Funds that invest in high yield and emerging market instruments are subject to certain additional credit and market risks. The yields of high yield and emerging market debt obligations reflect, among other things, perceived credit risk. The Fund’s investments in securities rated below investment grade typically involve risks not associated with higher rated securities including, among others, greater risk of not receiving timely and/or ultimate payment of interest and principal, greater market price volatility, and less liquid secondary market trading.

b. Interest Rate Risk:

The prices of fixed income securities respond to economic developments, particularly interest rate changes, as well as to perceptions about the creditworthiness of individual issuers, including governments. Generally, the Fund’s fixed income securities will decrease in value if interest rates rise and vice versa, and the volatility of lower-rated securities is even greater than that of higher-rated securities. Also, longer-term securities are generally more volatile, so the average maturity or duration of these securities affects risk. The Fund may be subject to a greater risk of rising interest rates due to current period of historically low rates and the effect of potential government fiscal policy intiatives and resulting market reaction to those initiatives.

c. Risks Associated with Foreign Securities and Currencies:

Investments in securities of foreign issuers carry certain risks not ordinarily associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These risks include future political and economic developments, and the possible imposition of exchange controls or other foreign governmental laws and restrictions. In addition, with respect to certain countries, there is the possibility of expropriation of assets,

confiscatory taxation, and political or social instability or diplomatic developments, which could adversely affect investments in those countries.

Certain countries also may impose substantial restrictions on investments in their capital markets by foreign entities, including restrictions on investments in issuers of industries deemed sensitive to relevant national interests. These factors may limit the investment opportunities available and result in a lack of liquidity and high price volatility with respect to securities of issuers from developing countries. Foreign securities may also be harder to price than U.S. securities.

d. Focus Risk:

The Fund may have elements of risk not typically associated with investments in the United States due to focused investments in a limited number of countries or regions subject to foreign securities or currencies risks. Such focused investments may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from political or economic conditions in such countries or regions and the possible imposition of adverse governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions could cause the securities and their markets to be less liquid and their prices to be more volatile than those of comparable U.S. securities.

9. Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Fund may provide general indemnifications pursuant to certain contracts and organizational documents. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund, and therefore, cannot be estimated; however, based on experience, the risk of loss from such claims is considered remote.

Notes to Financial Statements (concluded)

October 31, 2014

As of October 31, 2014, the components of accumulated earnings on a tax basis were as follows:


Undistributed ordinary income – net	$	462,039
Undistributed long-term capital gains – net		–
Total undistributed earnings	$	462,039
Capital loss carryforward		(7,325,937	)*
Other currency gains		4,569,631
Other temporary differences		(27,395	)
Unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) – securities		3,625,168	**
Unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) – currency		(1,914,476	)**
Total accumulated earnings/(losses) – net	$	(610,970	)

On October 31, 2014, the Fund has a net capital loss carryforward of $7,325,937 of which $1,010,377 expires in 2016, $4,448,923 expires in 2017 and $1,866,637 is unlimited losses. This amount will be available to offset like amounts of any future taxable gains. Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, the Fund is permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 for an unlimited period. However, any losses incurred during those future taxable years will be required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years. As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused. Additionally, post-enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as under previous law.

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) is attributable to the difference between book and tax amortization methods for premiums and discounts on fixed income securities, differing treatments for foreign currencies, the tax deferral of wash sales and straddles, the realization for tax purposes of unrealized gains/(losses) on certain foreign currency contracts, and other timing differences.

GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be adjusted to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. Accordingly, during the current year undistributed net investment income has been increased by $3,727,601; accumulated net realized loss from investments, interest rate swaps and futures contracts has been decreased by $167,110; accumulated net realized foreign exchange gains has been decreased by $2,665,075; and paid-in capital has been decreased by $895,416. Included in these amounts are prior year reclassifications related to shareholder distributions and foreign currency gains/(losses). These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset values per share.

11. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued guidance to improve the financial reporting of repurchase agreements and other similar transactions. The guidance includes expanded disclosure requirements for entities that enter into repurchase agreements and similar transactions accounted for as secured borrowings. The guidance is effective for financial statements with fiscal years beginning on or after December 15,

2014 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is evaluating the impact, if any, of this guidance on the Fund’s financial statement disclosures.

12. Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated the need for disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued. Based on this evaluation, no disclosures or adjustments were required to the financial statements as of October 31, 2014 other than those listed below.

On November 11, 2014 and December 9, 2014, the Fund announced that it will pay on November 28, 2014 and January 12, 2015 a distribution of $0.07 per share to all shareholders of record as of November 24, 2014 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

On November 21, 2014, the Fund exited $5,000,000 in notional value of the swap maturing on November 4, 2024. On November 26, 2014, the Fund paid down $5,000,000 of the revolving credit facility. The new outstanding balance on the credit facility is $35,000,000.

Board of Directors’ Consideration of Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements

At an in-person meeting of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Aberdeen Global Income Fund, Inc. (“FCO” or the “Fund”) held on September 8, 2014, the Board, including a majority of the Directors who are not considered to be “interested persons” of the Fund (the “Independent Directors”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), approved for an annual period the continuation of the Fund’s management agreement with Aberdeen Asset Management Asia Limited (the “Investment Manager”), the investment advisory agreement among the Fund, the Investment Manager and Aberdeen Asset Management Limited (the “Investment Adviser”), and the investment sub-advisory agreement among the Fund, the Investment Manager and Aberdeen Asset Managers Limited (the “Sub-Adviser”). Collectively, the Investment Manager, the Investment Adviser and the Sub-Adviser are referred to herein as the “Advisers” and the aforementioned agreements with the Advisers are referred to as the “Advisory Agreements.” The Investment Adviser and the Sub-Adviser are affiliates of the Investment Manager.

In considering whether to approve the renewal of the Fund’s Advisory Agreements, the Board reviews a variety of information provided by the Advisers relating to FCO, the Advisory Agreements and the Advisers, including comparative performance, fee and expense information and other information regarding the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Advisers under their respective Advisory Agreements. The materials provided to the Board

generally include, among other items: (i) information on the investment performance of the Fund and the performance of peer groups of funds and the Fund’s performance benchmarks; (ii) information on the Fund’s advisory fees and other expenses, including information comparing the Fund’s expenses to those of a peer group of funds and information about any applicable expense limitations and fee “breakpoints”; (iii) information about the profitability of the Advisory Agreements to the Advisers; (iv) a report prepared by the Advisers in response to a request submitted by the Independent Directors’ independent legal counsel on behalf of such Directors; and (v) a memorandum from the Independent Directors’ independent legal counsel on the responsibilities of the Board in considering for approval the investment advisory and investment sub-advisory arrangements under the 1940 Act and Maryland law. The Board, including the Fund’s Independent Directors, also considered other matters such as: (i) the Advisers’ financial results and financial condition; (ii) the Fund’s investment objective and strategies; (iii) the Advisers’ investment personnel and operations; (iv) the procedures employed to determine the value of the Fund’s assets; (v) the allocation of the Fund’s brokerage, if any, including, if applicable, allocations to brokers affiliated with the Advisers and the use, if any, of “soft” commission dollars to pay Fund expenses and to pay for research and other similar services; (vi) the resources devoted to, and the record of compliance with, the Fund’s investment policies and restrictions, policies on personal securities transactions and other compliance policies; and (vii) possible conflicts of interest. Throughout the process, the Board was afforded the opportunity to ask questions of and request additional materials from the Advisers.

Supplemental Information (unaudited) (continued)

October 31, 2014

In addition to the materials requested by the Directors in connection with their annual consideration of the continuation of the Advisory Agreements, the Directors received materials in advance of each regular quarterly meeting of the Board that provided information relating to the services provided by the Advisers.

The Independent Directors were advised by separate independent legal counsel throughout the process. The Independent Directors also consulted in executive sessions with counsel to the Independent Directors regarding consideration of the renewal of the Advisory Agreements. The Directors also considered the recommendation of the Board’s Contract Review Committee, consisting solely of the Board’s Independent Directors, that the Advisory Agreements be renewed. In considering whether to approve the continuation of the Advisory Agreements, the Board, including the Independent Directors, did not identify any single factor as determinative. Individual Directors may have evaluated the information presented differently from one another, giving different weights to various factors. Matters considered by the Board, including the Independent Directors, in connection with its approval of the continuation of the Advisory Agreements included the factors listed below.

The nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund under the Advisory Agreements. The Directors considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Advisers to the Fund and the resources dedicated to the applicable Fund by the Advisers. The Board considered, among other things, the Advisers’ investment experience. The Board received information regarding the Advisers’ compliance with applicable laws and SEC and other regulatory inquiries or audits of the Fund and the Advisers. The Board also considered the background and experience of the Advisers’ senior management personnel and the qualifications, background and responsibilities of the portfolio managers primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management services for the Fund. The Board also considered the allocation of responsibilities among the Advisers. The Board also considered that they receive information on a regular basis from the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer regarding the Advisers’ compliance policies and procedures. The Board also considered the Advisers’ risk management processes. The Board considered the Advisers’ brokerage policies and practices. Management reported to the Board on, among other things, its business plans and organizational changes. The Board also took into account their knowledge of management and the quality of the performance of management’s duties through Board meetings, discussion and reports during the preceding year.

After reviewing these and related factors, the Board concluded that they were satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the services provided and supported the renewal of the applicable Advisory Agreements.

Investment performance of the Fund and the Advisers. The Board received and reviewed with management, among other performance data, information compiled by Strategic Insight Mutual Fund Research and Consulting, LLC (“SI”), an independent third-party provider of investment company data as to the Fund’s total return, as compared to the funds in the Fund’s Morningstar category (the “Morningstar Group”). The Board also received performance information from management that compared the Fund’s return to comparable non-U.S. investment companies in its Lipper category.

The Board received and considered information for each of the last five fiscal years regarding the Fund’s total return on a gross and net basis and relative to the Fund’s benchmark, the Fund’s share performance and premium/discount information and the impact of foreign currency movements on the Fund’s performance. The Board also received and reviewed information as to the Fund’s total return for each of the last five fiscal years as compared with the total returns of its respective Morningstar Group average, and other comparable Aberdeen-managed funds and segregated accounts. The Board considered management’s discussion of the factors contributing to differences in performance, including differences in the investment strategies of each of these other funds and accounts. The Board also reviewed information as to the Fund’s discount/premium ranking relative to its Morningstar Group. The Board took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance. The Board concluded that overall performance results were satisfactory and supported continuation of the Advisory Agreements.

Specifically, the Board received and reviewed, among other performance data, information compiled by SI as to the Fund’s total return, as compared to the funds in the Fund’s Morningstar Group. The SI report indicated that the Fund’s annualized net total return was below the median for the one- and ten-year periods ended April 30, 2014, and was above the median for the three- and five-year periods ended April 30, 2014. The Board also received performance information from management that compared the Fund’s return to comparable non-U.S. investment companies in its Lipper category.

contributing to differences in performance, including differences in the investment strategies of each of these other funds and accounts. The Board also reviewed information as to the Fund’s discount/premium ranking relative to the Morningstar Group. The Board also noted that the Fund’s annualized net total return for the five-year period ended April 30, 2014 was above the return of the Fund’s benchmark, and that the Fund’s annualized net total returns for the one-, three- and ten-year periods ended April 30, 2014 were below those of the Fund’s benchmark. The Board took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance.

Fees and expenses. The Board reviewed with management the effective annual management fee rate paid by the Fund to the Investment Manager for investment management services. Additionally, the Board received and considered information compiled at the request of the Fund by SI, comparing the Fund’s effective annual management fee rate with the fees paid by a peer group consisting of other comparable closed-end funds (each such group, a “Peer Group”). The Board also took into account the management fee structure, including that management fees for the Fund were based on the Fund’s total managed assets, whether attributable to common stock or borrowings, if any. The Board also considered that the compensation paid to the Investment Adviser and Sub-Adviser is paid by the Investment Manager, and, accordingly that the retention of the Investment Adviser and Sub-Adviser does not increase the fees or expenses otherwise incurred by the Fund’s shareholders. The Board also considered information about the Investment Adviser’s and Investment Sub-Adviser’s fees, including the amount of the management fees retained by the Investment Manager after payment of the advisory and sub-advisory fees. The Board also received information from management regarding the fees charged by the Advisers to other U.S. and non-U.S. clients investing primarily in an asset class similar to that of the Fund. The Board considered the fee comparisons in light of the differences in resources and costs required to manage the different types of accounts.

The Board also took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s expenses, including the factors that impacted the Fund’s expenses.

Specifically, the SI data indicated that the Fund’s effective management fee rate (computed based on average managed assets for the six months ended April 30, 2014, and which reflects both the advisory fee and the administration fee) was below the Peer Group’s median fee rates. The Board noted that, among other information, the SI data also indicated that the Fund’s annualized net total expense ratio based on average managed assets, which includes the Fund’s assets attributable to its common stock plus borrowings for investment purposes, including leverage, for the six months ended

April 30, 2014 was above the median expense ratios of the Peer Group. The data also indicated that the Fund’s annualized net total expense ratio based on average net assets, excluding the principal amount of borrowings, for the six months ended April 30, 2014 was above the median expense ratios of its Peer Group. The Board took into account the impact of leverage on Fund expenses. The Board also received information from management regarding the fees charged by the Advisers to other U.S. and non-U.S. clients with sufficiently similar investment portfolios and investment management services to those of the Fund. The Board considered the fee comparisons in light of differences required to manage the different types of accounts.

Economies of Scale. The Board took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s management fee structure. The Board determined that the management fee structure was reasonable and reflects economies of scale being shared between the Fund and the Advisers. This determination was based on various factors, including that the Fund’s management fee schedule provides breakpoints at higher asset levels and how the Fund’s management fee compares relative to its Peer Group at higher asset levels.

The Directors also considered other factors, which included but were not limited to the following:

•

the effect of any market and economic volatility on the performance, asset levels and expense ratios of the Fund.

•

whether the Fund has operated in accordance with their investment objectives and the Fund’s record of compliance with their investment restrictions, and the compliance programs of the Advisers. The Directors also considered the compliance-related resources the Advisers and their affiliates were providing to the Fund.

•

so-called “fallout benefits” to the Advisers and their affiliates, such as reputational and other indirect benefits. The Directors considered any possible conflicts of interest associated with these fallout and other benefits, and the reporting, disclosure and other processes in place to disclose and monitor such possible conflicts of interest.

* * *

Based on their evaluation of all factors that they deemed to be material, including those factors described above, and assisted by the advice of independent counsel, the Directors, including the Independent Directors, concluded that renewal of the Advisory Agreements would be in the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders. Accordingly, the Board, including the Board’s Independent Directors voting separately, approved the Fund’s Advisory Agreements for an additional one-year period.

The Committee

Charter also provides that the Committee shall review in advance, and consider approval of, any and all proposals by Management or the Registrant’s investment adviser that the Registrant, the investment adviser or their affiliated persons, employ the independent auditor to render “permissible non-audit services” to the Registrant and to consider whether such services are consistent with the independent auditor’s independence.

In accordance with legal requirements in the various jurisdictions in which they operate, and their own Conflicts of Interest policies, all subsidiaries of Aberdeen Asset Management PLC, (together Aberdeen), have in place arrangements to identify and manage Conflicts of Interest that may arise between them and their clients or between their different clients. Where Aberdeen does not consider that these arrangements are sufficient to manage a particular conflict, it will inform the relevant client(s) of the nature of the conflict so that the client(s) may decide how to proceed.

The portfolio managers’ management of “other accounts”, including (1) mutual funds; (2) other pooled investment vehicles; and (3) other accounts that may pay advisory fees that are based on account performance (“performance-based fees”), may give rise to potential conflicts of interest in connection with their management of a Fund’s investments, on the one hand, and the investments of the other accounts, on the other. The other accounts may have the same investment objective as a fund. Therefore, a potential conflict of interest may arise as a result of the identical investment

objectives, whereby the portfolio manager could favor one account over another. However, Aberdeen believes that these risks are mitigated by the fact that: (i) accounts with like investment strategies managed by a particular portfolio manager are generally managed in a similar fashion, subject to exceptions to account for particular investment restrictions or policies applicable only to certain accounts, differences in cash flows and account sizes, and similar factors; and (ii) portfolio manager personal trading is monitored to avoid potential conflicts. In addition, Aberdeen has adopted trade allocation procedures that require equitable allocation of trade orders for a particular security among participating accounts.

In some cases, another account managed by the same portfolio manager may compensate Aberdeen based on the performance of the portfolio held by that account. The existence of such performance-based fees may create additional conflicts of interest for the portfolio manager in the allocation of management time, resources and investment opportunities.

Another potential conflict could include instances in which securities considered as investments for a Fund also may be appropriate for other investment accounts managed by Aberdeen or its affiliates. Whenever decisions are made to buy or sell securities by the Fund and one or more of the other accounts simultaneously, Aberdeen may aggregate the purchases and sales of the securities and will allocate the securities transactions in a manner that it believes to be equitable under the circumstances. As a result of the allocations, there may be instances where the Fund will not participate in a transaction that is allocated among other accounts. While these aggregation and allocation policies could have a detrimental effect on the price or amount of the securities available to a fund from time to time, it is the opinion of Aberdeen that the benefits from the Aberdeen organization outweigh any disadvantage that may arise from exposure to simultaneous transactions. Aberdeen has adopted policies that are designed to eliminate or minimize conflicts of interest, although there is no guarantee that procedures adopted under such policies will detect each and every situation in which a conflict arises.

(a)(3)

Aberdeen Asset Management PLC’s (“Aberdeen”) remuneration policies are designed to support its business strategy as a leading international asset manager. The objective is to attract, retain and reward talented individuals for the delivery of sustained, superior returns for Aberdeen’s clients and shareholders. Aberdeen operates in a highly competitive international employment market, and aims to maintain its strong track record of success in developing and retaining talent.

Aberdeen’s policy is to recognize corporate and individual achievements each year through an appropriate annual bonus scheme. The aggregate value of awards in any year is dependent on the group’s overall performance and profitability. Consideration is also given to the levels of bonuses paid in the market. Individual awards, which are payable to all members of staff are determined by a rigorous assessment of achievement against defined objectives.

A long-term incentive plan for key staff and senior employees comprises of a mixture of cash and deferred shares in Aberdeen PLC or select Aberdeen funds (where applicable). Overall compensation packages are designed to be competitive relative to the investment management industry.

Base Salary

Aberdeen’s policy is to pay a fair salary commensurate with the individual’s role, responsibilities and experience, and having regard to the market rates being offered for similar roles in the asset management sector and other comparable companies. Any increase is generally to reflect inflation and is applied in a manner consistent with other Aberdeen employees; any other increases must be justified by reference to promotion or changes in responsibilities.

Annual Bonus

Aberdeen’s policy is to recognize corporate and individual achievements each year through an appropriate annual bonus scheme. The Remuneration Committee of Aberdeen determines the key performance indicators that will be applied in considering the overall size of the bonus pool. In line with practice amongst other asset management companies, individual bonuses are not subject to an absolute cap. However, the aggregate size of the bonus pool is dependent on the group’s overall performance and profitability. Consideration is also given to the levels of bonuses paid in the market. Individual awards are determined by a rigorous assessment of achievement against defined objectives, and are reviewed and approved by the Remuneration Committee.

Aberdeen has a deferral policy which is intended to assist in the retention of talent and to create additional alignment of executives’ interests with Aberdeen’s sustained performance and, in respect of the deferral into funds, managed by Aberdeen, to align the interest of asset managers with our clients.

Staff performance is reviewed formally at least once a year. The review process evaluates the various aspects that the individual has contributed to Aberdeen, and specifically, in the case of portfolio managers, to the relevant investment team. Discretionary bonuses are based on client service, asset growth and the performance of the respective portfolio manager. Overall participation in team meetings, generation of original research ideas and contribution to presenting the team externally are also evaluated.

In the calculation of a portfolio management team’s bonus, Aberdeen takes into consideration investment matters (which include the performance of funds, adherence to the company investment process, and quality of company meetings) as well as more subjective issues such as team participation and effectiveness at client presentations. To the extent performance is factored in, such performance is not judged against any specific benchmark and is evaluated over the period of a year—January to December. The pre- or after-tax performance of an individual account is not considered in the determination of a portfolio manager’s discretionary bonus; rather the review process evaluates the overall performance of the team for all of the accounts the team manages.

Portfolio manager performance on investment matters is judged over all of the accounts the portfolio manager contributes to and is documented in the appraisal process. A combination of the team’s and individual’s performance is considered and evaluated.

Although performance is not a substantial portion of a portfolio manager’s compensation, Aberdeen also recognizes that fund performance can often be driven by factors outside one’s control, such as (irrational) markets, and as such pays attention to the effort by portfolio managers to ensure integrity of our core process by sticking to disciplines and processes set, regardless of momentum and ‘hot’ themes. Short-terming is thus discouraged and trading-oriented managers will thus find it difficult to thrive in the Aberdeen environment. Additionally, if any of the aforementioned undue risks were to be taken by a portfolio manager, such trend would be identified via Aberdeen’s dynamic compliance monitoring system.
