December 31, 2017 ANNUAL REPORT
Shareholders' Letter -- (unaudited)
Dear Shareholders:
We are pleased to present this annual report for the AIG Senior Floating Rate
Fund (the "Fund") for the 12 months ended December 31, 2017. Please note that
effective February 28, 2017, SunAmerica Mutual Funds was rebranded as AIG
Funds, and each Fund's name was changed accordingly. SunAmerica Asset
Management, LLC, the investment adviser to the Fund, continues to serve as
investment adviser of the Fund and retains its current name. In addition, there
was no change in the Fund's investment goals or strategies, portfolio managers
or ticker symbols in connection with the rebranding.
Overall, fixed income markets generated solid gains during the annual period as
bouts of elevated political uncertainty kept government bond yields relatively
low. As the year progressed, escalating geopolitical tensions between the U.S.
and North Korea and serial disappointments in inflation data helped to contain
the modest increase in sovereign yields prompted by central bank policy
normalization. Then, during the fourth quarter of 2017, yields on most
sovereign bonds were either stable or lower, as optimism about U.S. tax reform
and further central bank policy normalization were balanced by ongoing
geopolitical tensions and persistently subdued inflation data. In the U.S.,
yields on longer-term U.S. Treasuries declined, but shorter-term U.S. Treasury
yields actually increased. Meanwhile, despite concerns about prospects for
retailers, generally solid corporate earnings, improving economic data, a rally
in commodity prices in the second-half of 2017, and ongoing demand for
yield-producing assets supported credit markets, and spreads tightened. Indeed,
globally, most non-government bond sectors outperformed government bonds for
the annual period overall, as spreads tightened, led by lower-rated sectors.
Most currencies strengthened versus the U.S. dollar through the first three
calendar quarters of 2017 as political uncertainty and ongoing skepticism about
the U.S. Federal Reserve's (the "Fed") projected interest rate raises weighed
on the American currency. In the fourth quarter of the annual period, however,
the U.S. dollar fluctuated with news flow such as investigations into Russian
influence on the 2016 U.S. elections and the likelihood of tax reform, but
ended up stronger against most currencies.
Meanwhile, on the monetary policy front, most central banks around the world
became incrementally more hawkish during the annual period. The Fed raised
interest rates in March, June and December of 2017 and began tapering its asset
purchases in October 2017. Strong economic growth and inflation data prompted
the Bank of Canada to raise interest rates during July 2017 for the first time
in seven years -- and then it did so again in a surprise move less than two
months later. Through much of the annual period, the Bank of England (BoE)
indicated interest rate increases may be looming for the U.K. to contain
surging inflation, despite uncertainty about the post-Brexit growth outlook.
Then, during the fourth calendar quarter, the BoE raised its interest rates for
the first time in 10 years, noting future rate hikes would depend on the
stability of the Brexit transition. The European Central Bank (ECB) announced
its intention early in 2017 to continue the pace of its bond purchases through
at least December 2017 and pushed back against the notion of initiating
interest rate increases prior to the end of its quantitative easing. The ECB
then announced in October 2017 a reduction in its monthly asset purchases
beginning in January 2018 but extended its purchase program through September
2018. The People's Bank of China raised its open market operations reverse repo
rate during the fourth quarter of 2017. The exception was the Bank of Japan,
which remained accommodative, re-stating its commitment to maintain a
zero-yield policy on 10-year Japanese government bonds.
Amidst this backdrop, floating rate loans, as represented by the S&P/LSTA
Leveraged Loan Index (the "LLI"),/*/ returned 4.12% during the annual period
ended December 31, 2017, outperforming the broad U.S. fixed income market. The
Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index/*/ returned 3.54% for the same
time period. During the annual period, floating rate loans were able to absorb
the volatility associated with increased political uncertainty, a more hawkish
Fed and first-half 2017 oil price weakness and benefit from positive U.S.
economic growth trends and strong demand for yield-producing assets.

December 31, 2017 ANNUAL REPORT
Shareholders' Letter -- (unaudited) (continued)
The sector's credit fundamentals generally remained stable -- elevated interest
coverage helped to balance higher leverage -- and bank loan valuations appeared
attractive, in our view. Technicals, or supply/demand factors, generally
remained favorable as well. Bank loan mutual funds experienced outflows of
$4.0 billion in the fourth quarter of 2017, but saw inflows of
$13.5 billion/**/ during the annual period. Issuance of collateralized loan
obligations (CLOs), one of the main sources of demand for bank loans, remained
strong, with $35.6 billion priced in the fourth quarter of 2017, bringing
full-year 2017 issuance to $118 billion, the strongest since 2014.+ The
trailing 12-month loan default rate, examined by principal amount, increased to
1.84% at the end of the annual period, as compared to 1.49% at the end of
2016.++ In terms of quality, as measured by the LLI, lower quality loans
outperformed their higher quality counterparts.
On the following pages, you will find a brief discussion regarding the Fund's
annual results. You will also find financial statements and portfolio
information for the Fund for the annual period ended December 31, 2017.
As always, we remain diligent in the management of your assets. We value your
ongoing confidence in us and look forward to serving your investment needs in
the future.
Sincerely,
THE AIG SENIOR FLOATING RATE FUND PORTFOLIO MANAGER
Jeffrey W. Heuer

The Fund is not a money market fund and its net asset value may fluctuate.
Investments in loans involve certain risks including nonpayment of principal
and interest; collateral impairment; non-diversification and borrower industry
concentration; and lack of an active trading market, in certain cases, which
may impair the Fund's ability to obtain full value for loans sold. The Fund may
invest all or substantially all of its assets in loans or other securities
(e.g., unsecured loans or high yield securities) that are rated below
investment grade, or in comparable unrated securities. Credit risks include the
possibility of a default on the loan or bankruptcy of the borrower. The value
of these loans is subject to a greater degree of volatility in response to
interest rate fluctuations.

EXPENSE EXAMPLE -- December 31, 2017 -- (unaudited)
Disclosure of Portfolio Expenses in Shareholder Reports
As a shareholder of the AIG Senior Floating Rate Fund (the "Fund"), you may
incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges on
purchase payments and contingent deferred sales charges and (2) ongoing costs,
including management fees, distribution and account maintenance fees, and other
Fund expenses. The example set forth below is intended to help you understand
your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these
costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is
based on an investment of $1,000 invested at July 1, 2017 and held until
December 31, 2017.
Actual Expenses
The "Actual" section of the table provides information about actual account
values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns,
together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid
over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an
$8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the
number in the column under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During the Six
Months Ended December 31, 2017" to estimate the expenses you paid on your
account during this period. The "Expenses Paid During the Six Months Ended
December 31, 2017" column and the "Annualized Expense Ratio" column do not
include small account fees that may be charged if your account balance is below
$500 ($250 for retirement plan accounts). In addition, the "Expenses Paid
During the Six Months Ended December 31, 2017" column and the "Annualized
Expense Ratio" column do not include administrative or other fees that may
apply to qualified retirement plan accounts and accounts held through financial
institutions. See the Fund's prospectus, your retirement plan documents and/or
materials from your financial adviser, for a full description of these fees.
Had these fees been included, the "Expenses Paid During the Six Months Ended
December 31, 2017" column would have been higher and the "Ending Account Value"
column would have been lower.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The "Hypothetical" section of the table provides information about hypothetical
account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense
ratio and an annual rate of return of 5% before expenses, which is not the
Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be
used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the
period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing
in this Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example
with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of
other funds. The "Expenses Paid During the Six Months Ended December 31, 2017"
column and the "Annualized Expense Ratio" column do not include small account
fees that may be charged if your account balance is below $500 ($250 for
retirement plan accounts). In addition, the "Expenses Paid During the Six
Months Ended December 31, 2017" column and the "Annualized Expense Ratio"
column do not include administrative or other fees that may apply to qualified
retirement plan accounts and accounts held through financial institutions. See
the Fund's prospectus, your retirement plan document and/or materials from your
financial adviser for full description of these fees. Had these fees been
included, the "Expenses Paid During the Six Months Ended December 31, 2017"
column would have been higher and the "Ending Account Value" column would have
been lower.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your
ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs, including sales
charges on purchase payments, contingent deferred sales charges and
administrative fees, if applicable to your account. Please refer to the Fund's
prospectus, qualified retirement plan document and/or materials from your
financial adviser, for more information. Therefore, the "Hypothetical" example
is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the
relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these
transaction costs and other fees were included, your costs would have been
higher.

* Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio multiplied by the
average account value over the period, multiplied by 184 days then divided
by 365 days (to reflect the one-half year period). These ratios do not
reflect transaction costs, including sales charges on purchase payments,
contingent deferred sales charges, small account fees and administrative
fees, if applicable to your account. Please refer to your Prospectus, your
qualified retirement plan document and/or materials from your financial
advisor for more information.
# During the stated period, the investment adviser either waived a portion of
or all of the fees and assumed a portion of or all expenses for the Fund. As
a result, if these fees and expenses had not been waived or assumed, the
"Actual/Hypothetical Ending Account Value" would have been lower and the
"Actual/Hypothetical Expenses Paid During the Six Months Ended December 31,
2017" and the "Annualized Expense Ratio" would have been higher.

FRS--FloatingRate Security
The rates shown on FRS are the current interest rates as of December 31, 2017
and unless noted otherwise, the dates shown are the original maturity dates.
TBD--Seniorloan purchased on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. Certain
details associated with this purchase are not known prior to the
settlement date of the transaction. In addition, senior loans
typically trade without accrued interest and therefore a coupon rate
is not available prior to the settlement.

++ See Note 1
* Securities exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act
of 1933. These securities may be sold in transactions exempt from
registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. The Fund has no
rights to demand registration of these securities. At December 31, 2017,
the aggregate value of these securities was $15,284,466, representing 6.1%
of net assets. Unless otherwise indicated, these securities are not
considered to be illiquid.
** Denominated in United States Dollars unless otherwise noted.
(1) Bank loans rated below Baa by Moody's Investor Service, Inc. or BBB by
Standard & Poor's Group are considered below investment grade. Ratings
provided are as of December 31, 2017.
(2) Based on the stated maturity, the weighted average to maturity of the loans
held in the portfolio is approximately 69 months. Loans in the Fund's
portfolio are generally subject to mandatory and/or optional prepayment.
Because of these mandatory prepayment conditions and because there may be
significant economic incentives for a Borrower to prepay, prepayments may
occur. As a result, the actual remaining maturity may be substantially less
than the stated maturities shown.
(3) The Fund invests in senior loans which generally pay interest at rates
which are periodically re-determined by reference to a base lending rate
plus a premium. These base lending rates are generally either the lending
rate offered by one or more major European banks, such as the London
Inter-Bank Offer Rate ("LIBOR") or the prime rate offered by one or more
major United States banks, or the certificate of deposit rate. Senior loans
are generally considered to be restrictive in that the Fund is ordinarily
contractually obligated to receive approval from the Agent Bank and/or
borrower prior to the disposition of a senior loan.
(4) All loans in the portfolio were purchased through assignment agreements
unless otherwise indicated.
(5) Illiquid security. At December 31, 2017, the aggregate value of these
securities was $11,604,246 representing 4.7% of net assets.
(6) Security classified as Level 3 (see Note 2).
(7) All or a portion of this holding is subject to unfunded loan commitments
(see Note 10).
(8) "Payment-in-Kind" (PIK) security -- Income may be paid in additional
securities or cash at the discretion of the issuer. The security is
currently paying interest in cash at 9.69%. The security is also currently
paying interest in the form of additional loans at 1.00%.

(9) Denotes a restricted security that: (a) cannot be offered for public sale
without first being registered, or being able to take advantage of an
exemption from registration, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "1933 Act"); (b) is subject to a contractual restriction on public
sales; or (c) is otherwise subject to a restriction on sales by operation
of applicable law. Restricted securities are valued pursuant to Note 2.
Certain restricted securities held by the Fund may not be sold except in
exempt transactions or in a public offering registered under the 1933 Act.
The Fund has no right to demand registration of these securities. The risk
of investing in certain restricted securities is greater than the risk of
investing in the securities of widely held, publicly traded companies. To
the extent applicable, lack of a secondary market and resale restrictions
may result in the inability of a Fund to sell a security at a fair price
and may substantially delay the sale of the security. In addition, certain
restricted securities may exhibit greater price volatility than securities
for which secondary markets exist. As of December 31, 2017, the Fund held
the following restricted securities:

SunAmerica Senior Floating Rate Fund, Inc.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- December 31, 2017
Note 1. Organization of the Fund
SunAmerica Senior Floating Rate Fund, Inc. (the "Corporation") is an
open-end, diversified management investment company organized as a Maryland
corporation in 1998 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). The Corporation consists of one series --
AIG Senior Floating Rate Fund (the "Fund"). The Fund is managed by
SunAmerica Asset Management, LLC (the "Adviser" or "SunAmerica"), an
indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of American International Group, Inc.
("AIG"). The Fund's investment goal and principal investment techniques are
to provide as high a level of current income as is consistent with the
preservation of capital by investing, under normal market conditions, at
least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in
senior secured floating rate loans and other institutionally traded secured
floating rate debt obligations ("Loans"). The Fund may also purchase both
investment grade and high yield fixed income securities and money market
instruments, although the Fund may not invest more than 10% of its total
assets in high yield fixed income securities. The Fund may invest in foreign
securities, including up to 10% of its total assets in non-U.S. dollar
denominated Loans and high yield fixed income securities and up to 25% of
its total assets in U.S. dollar denominated Loans issued by non-U.S.
companies.
On November 18, 2016, the Board of Directors approved a change in the name
of the SunAmerica Senior Floating Rate Fund to the AIG Senior Floating Rate
Fund effective February 28, 2017. SunAmerica Asset Management, LLC continues
to serve as investment adviser of the Fund and retains its current name. In
addition, there was no change in the Fund's investment goal or strategy,
portfolio manager or ticker symbols in connection with the rebranding.
The Fund offers three classes of shares: Class A, Class C and Class W. These
classes within the Fund are presented in the Statement of Assets and
Liabilities. The cost structure for each class is as follows:
Class A shares-- Offered at net asset value per share plus an initial sales
charge. Additionally, purchases of Class A shares in excess
of $1,000,000 will be purchased at net asset value but will
be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC")
on redemptions made within two years of purchase.
Class C shares-- Offered for sale at net asset value without a front-end
sales charge, although a CDSC may be imposed on redemptions
made within 12 months of purchase.
Class W shares-- Offered at net asset value per share. The class is offered
exclusively through advisory fee-based programs sponsored
by certain financial intermediaries and other programs.
Class W shares of the Fund commenced operations effective
April 20, 2017.
Each class of shares bears the same voting, dividend, liquidation and other
rights and conditions, except as may otherwise be provided in the Fund's
registration statement. Class A and Class C shares each make distribution
and account maintenance fee payments under the distribution plans pursuant
to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, with Class C shares being subject to
higher distribution fee rates. Class W shares have not adopted a 12b-1 plan
and make no payments thereunder, however, Class W shares pay a service fee
to the Fund's distributor for providing administrative and shareholder
services.
Indemnifications: The Fund's organizational documents provide current and
former officers and directors with a limited indemnification against
liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. In
addition, pursuant to Indemnification Agreements between the Fund and each
of the current directors who is not an "interested person," as defined in
Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, of the Fund (collectively, the
"Disinterested Directors"), the Fund provides the Disinterested Directors
with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising out of the
performance of their duties to the Fund, whether such liabilities are
asserted during or after their service as directors. In addition, in the
normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain the
obligation to indemnify others. The Fund's maximum exposure under these
arrangements is unknown. Currently, however, the Fund expects the risk of
loss to be remote.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- December 31, 2017 -- (continued)
Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these
estimates and those differences could be significant. The following is a
summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund
in the preparation of its financial statements:
Security Valuation: In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair
value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the Fund discloses the fair
value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to
valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. In accordance with
GAAP, fair value is defined as the price that the Fund would receive upon
selling an asset or transferring a liability in a timely transaction to an
independent third party in the principal or most advantageous market. GAAP
establishes a three-tier hierarchy to provide more transparency around the
inputs used to measure fair value and to establish classification of fair
value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the
assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or
liability, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or
unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions
market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed
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. The three-tiers are as follows:
Level 1 -- Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical
securities
Level 2 -- Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for
similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk,
referenced indices, quoted prices in inactive markets, adjusted quoted
prices in active markets, adjusted quoted prices on foreign equity
securities that were adjusted in accordance with pricing procedures approved
by the Board of Directors (the "Board"), etc.)
Level 3 -- Significant unobservable inputs (includes inputs that reflect the
Fund's own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use
in pricing the security, developed based on the best information available
under the circumstances)
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an
investment's assigned Level within the hierarchy. The methodology used for
valuing investments is not necessarily an indication of the risk associated
with investing in those investments and the determination of the
significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its
entirety requires judgment and consideration of factors specific to each
security.
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and
is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type
of security, whether the security is recently issued and not yet established
in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics
particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models
or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the
determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree
of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments
categorized in Level 3.
The summary of the Fund's assets and liabilities classified in the fair
value hierarchy as of December 31, 2017, is reported on a schedule following
the Portfolio of Investments.
Stocks are generally valued based upon closing sales prices reported on
recognized securities exchanges on which the securities are principally
traded and are generally categorized as Level 1. Stocks listed on the NASDAQ
are valued using the NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP"). Generally, the
NOCP will be the last sale price unless the reported trade for the stock is
outside the range of the bid/ask price. In such cases, the NOCP will be
normalized to the nearer of the bid or ask price. For listed securities
having no sales reported and for unlisted securities, such securities will
be valued based upon the last reported bid price.
23
SunAmerica Senior Floating Rate Fund, Inc.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- December 31, 2017 -- (continued)
As of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"),
securities traded primarily on security exchanges outside the United States
are valued at the last sale price on such exchanges on the day of valuation,
or if there is no sale on the day of valuation, at the last-reported bid
price. If a security's price is available from more than one exchange, the
Fund uses the exchange that is the primary market for the security. Such
securities are generally categorized as Level 1. However, depending on the
foreign market, closing prices may be up to 15 hours old when they are used
to price a Fund's shares, and the Fund may determine that certain closing
prices do not reflect the fair value of the security. This determination
will be based on the review of a number of factors, including developments
in foreign markets, the performance of U.S. securities markets, and the
performance of instruments trading in U.S. markets that represent foreign
securities and baskets of foreign securities. If the Fund determines that
closing prices do not reflect the fair value of the securities, the Fund
will adjust the previous closing prices in accordance with pricing
procedures approved by the Board to reflect what it believes to be the fair
value of the securities as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE. The
Fund may also fair value securities in other situations, for example, when a
particular foreign market is closed but the Fund is open. For foreign equity
securities and foreign equity futures contracts, the Fund uses an outside
pricing service to provide it with closing market prices and information
used for adjusting those prices, and when so adjusted, such securities and
futures are generally categorized as Level 2.
Bonds, debentures, and other debt securities are valued at evaluated bid
prices obtained for the day of valuation from a Board-approved pricing
service, and are generally categorized as Level 2. The pricing service may
use valuation models or matrix pricing which considers information with
respect to comparable bond and note transactions, quotations from bond
dealers, or by reference to other securities that are considered comparable
in such characteristics as rating, interest rate, and maturity date, option
adjusted spread models, prepayments projections, interest rate spreads, and
yield curves to determine current value. If a price is unavailable from a
Board-approved pricing service, the securities may be priced at the mean of
two independent quotes obtained from brokers.
Senior secured floating rate loans ("Loans") are valued at the average of
available bids in the market for such Loans, as provided by a Board-approved
loan pricing service, and are generally categorized as Level 2.
Investments in registered investment companies that do not trade on an
exchange are valued at the end of day net asset value per share. Investments
in registered investment companies that trade on an exchange are valued at
the last sales price or official closing price as of the close of the
customary trading session on the exchange where the security is principally
traded. Investments in registered investment companies are generally
categorized as Level 1.
Forward foreign currency contracts ("forward contracts") are valued at the
4:00 pm Eastern time forward rate and are generally categorized as Level 2.
The Board is responsible for the share valuation process and has adopted
policies and procedures (the "PRC Procedures") for valuing the securities
and other assets held by the Fund, including procedures for the fair
valuation of securities and other assets for which market quotations are not
readily available or are unreliable. The PRC Procedures provide for the
establishment of a pricing review committee, which is responsible for, among
other things, making certain determinations in connection with the Fund's
fair valuation procedures. Securities for which market quotations are not
readily available or the values of which may be significantly impacted by
the occurrence of developments or significant events are generally
categorized as Level 3. There is no single standard for making fair value
determinations, which may result in prices that vary from those of other
funds.
Derivative Instruments:
Forward Foreign Currency Contracts: During the period, the Fund used forward
contracts to protect against uncertainty in the level of future exchange
rates.
A forward contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell
currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of the contract
will fluctuate with changes in currency exchange rates. The contract is
marked-to-market daily using the forward rate and the cumulative change in
market value is recorded by the Fund as unrealized appreciation or
depreciation. On the settlement date, the Fund records either realized gains
or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the
time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.
24
SunAmerica Senior Floating Rate Fund, Inc.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- December 31, 2017 -- (continued)
Risks to the Fund of entering into forward contracts include counterparty
risk, market risk and illiquidity risk. Counterparty risk arises upon
entering into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties
to meet the terms of their contracts. If the counterparty defaults, the
Fund's loss will generally consist of the net amount of contractual payments
that the Fund has not yet received though the Fund's maximum exposure due to
counterparty risk could extend to the notional amount of the contract.
Market risk is the risk that the value of the forward contract will
depreciate due to unfavorable changes in the exchange rates. These contracts
may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized appreciation or
depreciation reported on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Illiquidity risk arises because the secondary market for forwards may have
less liquidity relative to markets for other securities. Currency
transactions are also subject to risks different from those of other
portfolio transactions. Because currency control is of great importance to
the issuing governments and influences economic planning and policy,
purchases and sales of currency and related instruments can be adversely
affected by government exchange controls, limitations or restrictions on
repatriation of currency, and manipulations or exchange restrictions imposed
by governments.
Forward foreign currency contracts outstanding at the end of the period, if
any, are reported on a schedule following the Fund's Portfolio of
Investments.
Master Agreements: The Fund holds derivative instruments and other financial
instruments whereby the Fund may be a party to ISDA (International Swaps and
Derivatives Association, Inc.) Master Agreements or similar agreements
("Master Agreements") with certain counterparties that govern such
instruments. Master Agreements may contain provisions regarding, among other
things, the parties' general obligations, representations, agreements,
collateral requirements, events of default and early termination. Collateral
can be in the form of cash or securities as agreed to by the Fund and
applicable counterparty. Collateral requirements are generally determined
based on the Fund's net position with each counterparty. Master Agreements
may also include certain provisions that require the Fund to post additional
collateral upon the occurrence of certain events, such as when a Fund's net
assets fall below a specified level. In addition, Master Agreements
typically specify certain standard termination events, such as failure of a
party to pay or deliver, credit support defaults and other events of
default. Termination events applicable to the Fund may also occur upon a
decline in the Fund's net assets below a specified level over a certain
period of time. Additional termination events applicable to counterparties
may occur upon a decline in a counterparty's long-term and short-term credit
ratings below a specified level, or upon a decline in the ratings of a
counterparty's credit support provider. Upon the occurrence of a termination
event, the other party may elect to terminate early and cause settlement of
all instruments outstanding pursuant to a particular Master Agreement,
including the payment of any losses and costs resulting from such early
termination, as reasonably determined by the terminating party. Any decision
by one or more of the Fund's counterparties to elect early termination could
cause the Fund to accelerate the payment of liabilities, which settlement
amounts could be in excess of the amount of assets that are already posted
as collateral. Typically, the Master Agreement will permit a single net
payment in the event of default. Note, however, that bankruptcy or
insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or
prohibitions against the right of offset in bankruptcy, insolvency or other
events. As a result, the early termination with respect to derivative
instruments subject to Master Agreements that are in a net liability
position could be material to the Fund's financial statements. The Fund does
not offset derivative assets and derivative liabilities that are subject to
netting arrangements in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
The following tables represent the value of derivatives held as of December
31, 2017, by their primary underlying risk exposure and respective location
on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and the effect of derivatives on
the Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2017. The
derivative contracts held during the period are not accounted for as hedging
instruments under GAAP. For a detailed presentation of derivatives held as
of December 31, 2017, please refer to a schedule following the Fund's

Repurchase Agreements: The Fund, along with other affiliated registered
investment companies, pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board and
applicable guidance from the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), may
transfer uninvested cash balances into a single joint account, the daily
aggregate balance of which is invested in one or more repurchase agreements
collateralized by U.S. Treasury or federal agency obligations. In a
repurchase agreement, the seller of a security agrees to repurchase the
security at a mutually agreed-upon time and price, which reflects the
effective rate of return for the term of the agreement. For repurchase
agreements and joint repurchase agreements, the Fund's custodian takes
possession of the collateral pledged for investments in such repurchase
agreements ("repo" or collectively "repos"). The underlying collateral is
valued daily on a mark to market basis, plus accrued interest, to ensure
that the value, at the time the agreement is entered into, is equal to at
least 102% of the repurchase price, including accrued interest. In
26
SunAmerica Senior Floating Rate Fund, Inc.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- December 31, 2017 -- (continued)
the event of default of the obligation to repurchase, the Fund has the right
to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the
obligation. If the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines
or if bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with respect to the seller of the
security, realization of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or
limited.

When-Issued Securities and Forward Commitments: The Fund may purchase or
sell when-issued securities that have been authorized, but not yet issued in
the market. In addition, the Fund may purchase or sell securities on a
forward commitment basis. A forward commitment involves entering into a
contract to purchase or sell securities, typically on an extended settlement
basis, for a fixed price at a future date. The Fund may engage in
when-issued or forward commitment transactions in order to secure what is
considered to be an advantageous price and yield at the time of entering
into the obligation. The purchase of securities on a when-issued or forward
commitment basis involves a risk of loss if the value of the security to be
purchased declines before the settlement date. Conversely, the sale of
securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis involves the risk
that the value of the securities sold may increase before the settlement
date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or forward commitment
basis outstanding at the end of the period, if any, are included in
investments purchased/sold on an extended settlement basis in the Statement
of Assets and Liabilities.
Loans: The Fund invests in senior loans which generally consist of direct
debt obligations of companies (collectively, "Borrowers"), primarily U.S.
companies and their affiliates, undertaken to finance the growth of the
Borrower's business internally and externally, or to finance a capital
restructuring. Transactions in senior loans may settle on a delayed basis.
Loans outstanding at the end of the period, if any, are included in
investments purchased/sold on an extended settlement basis in the Statement
of Assets and Liabilities.
Securities Transactions, Investment Income, Expenses, Dividends and
Distributions to Shareholders: Security transactions are recorded on a trade
date basis. Realized gains and losses on sales of investments are calculated
on the identified cost basis. Interest income is accrued daily from
settlement date except when collection is not expected. Dividend income is
recorded on the ex-dividend date. For financial statement purposes, the Fund
28
SunAmerica Senior Floating Rate Fund, Inc.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- December 31, 2017 -- (continued)
amortizes all premiums and accretes all discounts. Facility fees received,
which were $226,822 for the year ended December 31, 2017, are accreted to
income over the life of the Loans. Other income, including amendment fees,
commitment fees, letter of credit fees, etc., which were $888,973 for the
year ended December 31, 2017, are recorded as income when received or
contractually due to the Fund.
Net investment income, other than class specific expenses, and realized and
unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares
based upon the relative net asset value of outstanding shares (or the value
of dividend-eligible shares, as appropriate) of each class of shares at the
beginning of the day (after adjusting for the current capital share activity
of the respective class).
Dividends from net investment income are normally declared daily and paid
monthly. Capital gain distributions, if any, are paid annually. The Fund
records dividends and distributions to the shareholders on the ex-dividend
date. The amount of dividends and distributions from net investment income
and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal
income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These "book/tax"
differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the
extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are
reclassified within the capital accounts at fiscal year end based on their
federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require
reclassification. Net assets are not affected by the reclassifications.
The Fund is considered a separate entity for tax purposes and intends to
comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended,
applicable to regulated investment companies and distribute all of its
taxable income, including any net capital gains on investments, to its
shareholders. The Fund also intends to distribute sufficient net investment
income and net capital gains, if any, so that the Fund will not be subject
to excise tax on undistributed income and gains. Therefore, no federal
income tax or excise tax provision is required.
The Fund recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when
the position is more likely than not to be sustained, assuming examination
by tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Fund's tax positions and
concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded
related to uncertain tax positions taken on returns filed for open tax years
2014-2016 or expected to be taken in the Fund's 2017 tax return. The Fund is
not aware of any tax provisions for which it is reasonably possible that the
total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the
next twelve months. The Fund files U.S. federal and certain state income tax
returns. With few exceptions, the Fund is no longer subject to U.S. federal
and state tax examinations by tax authorities for tax returns ending before
2014.
Foreign Currency Translation: The books and records of the Fund is
maintained in U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies and commitments under forward foreign currency contracts are
translated into U.S. dollars based on the exchange rate of such currencies
against U.S. dollars on the date of valuation.
The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising
as a result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the changes in the
market prices of securities held at the end of the period. Similarly, the
Fund does not isolate the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from
the changes in the market prices of portfolio securities sold during the
period.
Realized foreign exchange gains and losses on other assets and liabilities
and change in unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses on other assets
and liabilities located in the Statements of Operations include realized
foreign exchange gains and losses from currency gains or losses between the
trade and the settlement dates of securities transactions, the difference
between the amounts of interest, dividends and foreign withholding taxes
recorded on the Funds' books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually
received or paid and changes in the unrealized foreign exchange gains and
losses relating to the other assets and liabilities arising as a result of
changes in the exchange rates.
New Accounting Pronouncement: In October 2016, the SEC adopted amendments to
rules under the 1940 Act ("final rules") intended to modernize the reporting
and disclosure of information by registered investment companies. The final
rules amend Regulation S-X and require funds to provide standardized,
enhanced derivative disclosure in
29
SunAmerica Senior Floating Rate Fund, Inc.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- December 31, 2017 -- (continued)
fund financial statements in a format designed for individual investors. The
amendments to Regulation S-X also update the disclosures for other
investments and investments in and advances to affiliates and amend the
rules regarding the general form and content of fund financial statements.
The compliance date for the amendments to Regulation S-X was August 1, 2017.
All required changes have been made in accordance with Regulation S-X.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Fund's cost of purchases and
proceeds from sale of long-term investments, including loan principal
paydowns, were $188,916,735 and $224,477,679, respectively.
Note 5. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The Fund has entered into an Investment Advisory and Management Agreement
(the "Advisory Agreement") with SunAmerica. Pursuant to the Advisory
Agreement, SunAmerica provides continuous supervision of the Fund and
administers its corporate affairs, subject to the general review and
oversight of the Board. In connection therewith, SunAmerica furnishes the
Fund with office facilities, maintains certain of the Fund's books and
records and pays the salaries and expenses of all personnel, including
officers of the Fund who are employees of SunAmerica and its affiliates.
SunAmerica also selects, contracts with and compensates the subadviser to
manage the Fund's assets. The Fund will pay SunAmerica a monthly management
fee at the following annual rates, based on the average daily net assets of
the Fund: 0.85% on the first $1 billion; 0.80% on the next $1 billion; and
0.75% in excess of $2 billion.
Wellington Management Company LLP ("Wellington") acts as subadviser to the
Fund pursuant to a Subadvisory Agreement with SunAmerica. Under the
Subadvisory Agreement, Wellington manages the investment and
30
SunAmerica Senior Floating Rate Fund, Inc.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- December 31, 2017 -- (continued)
reinvestment of the Fund's assets. For compensation for its services as
subadviser, Wellington is entitled to receive from SunAmerica a monthly fee
payable at the following annual rates: 0.30% of average daily net assets on
the first $500 million and 0.25% thereafter. The fee paid to the subadviser
is paid by SunAmerica and not the Fund.
Pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement (the "Administrative
Agreement"), SunAmerica acts as the Fund's administrator and is responsible
for providing and supervising the performance by others, of administrative
services in connection with the operations of the Fund, subject to
supervision by the Fund's Board. For its services, SunAmerica receives an
annual fee equal to 0.20% of average daily net assets of the Fund. For the
year ended December 31, 2017, SunAmerica earned fees as reflected in the
Statement of Operations based upon the aforementioned rate.
The Fund has entered into a Distribution Agreement with AIG Capital
Services, Inc. ("ACS" or the "Distributor"), an affiliate of the Adviser.
The Fund has adopted a Distribution Plan on behalf of each class of shares
(other than Class W shares) (each a "Plan" and collectively, the "Plans") in
accordance with the provisions of Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, hereinafter
referred to as the "Class A Plan" and "Class C Plan". In adopting the Plans,
the Board determined that there was a reasonable likelihood that each such
Plan would benefit the Fund and the shareholders of the respective class.
The sales charge and distribution fees of a particular class will not be
used to subsidize the sale of shares of any other class.
Under the Class A Plan and Class C Plan, the Distributor receives payments
from the Fund at an annual rate of 0.10% and 0.50%, respectively, of the
average daily net assets of the Fund's Class A and Class C shares to
compensate the Distributor and certain securities firms for providing sales
and promotional activities for distributing that class of shares. The
distribution costs for which the Distributor may be compensated include fees
paid to broker-dealers that have sold Fund shares, commissions and other
expenses such as those incurred for sales literature, prospectus printing
and distribution and compensation to wholesalers. It is possible that in any
given year, the amount paid to the Distributor under each Class' Plan may
exceed the Distributor's distribution costs as described above. The Plans
provide that the Class A and Class C shares of the Fund will pay the
Distributor an account maintenance fee up to an annual rate of 0.25% of the
aggregate average daily net assets of such class of shares for payments to
compensate the Distributor and certain securities firms for account
maintenance activities. For the year ended December 31, 2017, ACS received
fees (see Statement of Operations) based upon the aforementioned rates. The
Fund has entered into an Administrative and Shareholder Services Agreement
with ACS, pursuant to which ACS is paid an annual fee of 0.15% of average
daily net assets of Class W shares as compensation for providing additional
shareholder services to Class W shareholders. For the year ended December
31, 2017, ACS earned fees as reflected in the Statements of Operations based
on the aforementioned rate.
For the year ended December 31, 2017, ACS received sales charges on Class A
shares of $109,033, of which $48,333 was reallowed to affiliated
broker-dealers and $39,243 to non-affiliated broker-dealers. In addition,
ACS receives the proceeds of contingent deferred sales charges paid by
investors in connection with certain redemptions of Class A and Class C
shares. For the year ended December 31, 2017, ACS received contingent
deferred sales charges of $8,268
The Fund has entered into a Service Agreement with SunAmerica Fund Services,
Inc. ("SAFS") an affiliate of the Adviser. Under the Service Agreement, SAFS
performs certain shareholder account functions by assisting the Fund's
transfer agent in connection with the services that it offers to the
shareholders of the Fund. The Service Agreement, which permits the Fund to
compensate SAFS for services rendered based upon an annual rate of 0.22% of
average daily net assets, is approved annually by the Board. For the year
ended December 31, 2017, the Fund incurred the following expenses, which are
included in the transfer agent fees and expenses payable in the Statement of
Assets and Liabilities and in transfer agent fees and expenses in the
Statement of Operations to compensate SAFS pursuant to the terms of the
Service Agreement.

SunAmerica Senior Floating Rate Fund, Inc.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- December 31, 2017 -- (continued)
SunAmerica has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses
to the extent necessary to cap the Fund's annual operating expenses at 1.45%
for Class A, 1.75% for Class C and 1.25% for Class W of average daily net
assets. For purposes of waived fees and/or reimbursed expense calculations,
annual Fund operating expenses shall not include extraordinary expenses,
(i.e., expenses that are unusual in nature and/or infrequent in occurrence,
such as litigation), or acquired fund fees and expenses, brokerage
commissions and other transactional expenses relating to the purchase and
sale of portfolio securities, interest, taxes and governmental fees and
other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund's business.
The expense reimbursements and fee waivers will continue indefinitely,
unless terminated by the Board, including a majority of the Disinterested
Directors. For the year ended December 31, 2017, SunAmerica waived fees
and/or reimbursed expenses as follows: Class A $447,622, Class C $707,019
and Class W $31,506.
Note 6. Federal Income Taxes
The following details the tax basis distributions as well as the components
of distributable earnings. The tax basis components of distributable
earnings differ from the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and
Liabilities by temporary book/tax differences primarily arising from
dividends payable and wash sales.

Capital Loss Carryforwards: At December 31, 2017 for Federal income tax
purposes, the Fund has $22,880,388 of unlimited long-term capital losses.
For the year ended December 31, 2017, the fund utilized short-term capital
losses of $307,778 and expired capital loss carryforwards of $27,303,177.+
-----
+ On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of
2010 (the "Act") was enacted which changed various technical rules
governing the tax treatment of regulated investment companies. The changes
are generally effective for taxable years beginning after the date of
enactment. Under the Act, a fund will be permitted to carry forward capital
losses incurred in taxable years beginning after the date of enactment 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, which carry an expiration date. 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 losses rather than being considered all short-term as under
previous law.
Under the current law, capital losses realized after October 31 and
specified ordinary losses may be deferred and treated as occurring on the
first day of the following year. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the
fund deferred $38,019 of late year ordinary losses, $214,499 of post-October
short-term capital gains and $565,264 of post-October long-term capital
losses.
For the year ended December 31, 2017, reclassifications were made to
increase accumulated net realized gain (loss) by $27,254,496 and
undistributed net investment income by $48,681, with an offsetting reduction
to paid in capital of $27,303,177. The reclassifications arising from
book/tax differences were due primarily to the reclassification of foreign
currency gains and losses and expiration of capital loss carryforwards.
Unrealized appreciation and depreciation in the value of investments at
December 31, 2017 for federal income tax purposes were as follows:
Cost (tax basis)................... $257,364,732
============
Gross unrealized appreciation...... 1,898,505
Gross unrealized depreciation...... (6,938,068)
------------
Net unrealized depreciation........ $ (5,039,563)

SunAmerica Senior Floating Rate Fund, Inc.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- December 31, 2017 -- (continued)
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Act") was signed into
law. Certain provisions of the Act were effective upon enactment with the
remainder becoming effective for tax years beginning after December 31,
2017. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, on the
financial statements and the accompanying notes to financial statements.
Note 7. Line of Credit
The Fund, along with certain other funds managed by the Adviser has access
to a $75 million committed unsecured line of credit and a $50 million
uncommitted unsecured line of credit. The committed and uncommitted lines of
credit are renewable on an annual basis with State Street Bank and Trust
Company ("State Street"), the Fund's custodian. Interest is currently
payable on the committed line of credit at the higher of the Federal Funds
Rate (but not less than zero) plus 125 basis points or the One-Month London
Interbank Offered Rate (but not less than zero) plus 125 basis points and
State Street's discretionary bid rate on the uncommitted line of credit.
There is also a commitment fee of 25 basis points per annum on the daily
unused portion of the committed line of credit and an upfront fee of $25,000
on the uncommitted line of credit. Borrowings under the line of credit will
commence when the respective Fund's cash shortfall exceeds $100,000.
For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Fund did not utilize the line of
credit.
Note 8. Interfund Lending
Pursuant to the exemptive relief granted by the SEC, the Fund is permitted
to participate in an interfund lending program among investment companies
advised by SunAmerica or an affiliate. The interfund lending program allows
the participating funds to borrow money from and lend money to each other
for temporary or emergency purposes. An interfund loan will be made under
this facility only if the participating funds receive a more favorable
interest rate than would otherwise be available from a typical bank for a
comparable transaction. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Fund did
not participate in this program.
Note 9. Investment Concentration
The Fund invests primarily in participations and assignments, or acts as a
party to the primary lending syndicate of a variable rate senior loan
interest to United States corporations, partnerships, and other entities. If
the lead lender in a typical lending syndicate becomes insolvent, enters
receivership or, if not FDIC insured, enters into bankruptcy, the Fund may
incur certain costs and delays in receiving payment, or may suffer a loss of
principal and/or interest. When the Fund purchases a participation of a
senior loan interest, the Fund typically enters into a contractual agreement
with the lender or other third party selling the participation but not with
the borrower directly. As such, the Fund is subject to the credit risk of
the borrower, selling participant, lender or other persons positioned
between the Fund and the borrower.
Note 10. Unfunded Loan Commitments
At December 31, 2017, the Fund had the following unfunded loan commitments
which could be extended at the option of the Borrower:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors of SunAmerica Senior Floating Rate Fund, Inc. and
Shareholders of the AIG Senior Floating Rate Fund
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolio of investments, of AIG Senior Floating Rate Fund (formerly
SunAmerica Senior Floating Rate Fund) (the "Fund") as of December 31, 2017, the
related statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2017, the
statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period
ended December 31, 2017, including the related notes, and the financial
highlights for each of the five years in the period ended December 31, 2017
(collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the
financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of the Fund as of December 31, 2017, the results of its operations for
the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in
the period ended December 31, 2017 and the financial highlights for each of the
five years in the period ended December 31, 2017 in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's financial statements
based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required
to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal
securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the
standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material
misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and
performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included
examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures
included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2017 by
correspondence with the custodian, brokers and selling or agent banks; when
replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

COMPARISON: FUND vs. INDEX -- (unaudited)
As required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the graph on the
following pages compares the performance of a $10,000 investment in the Fund to
a similar investment in the index. Please note that the term "inception," as
used herein, reflects the date on which a specific class of shares commenced
operations. It is important to note that the Fund is a professionally managed
mutual fund while the index is not available for investment and is unmanaged.
The comparison is shown for illustrative purposes only. The graph presents the
performance of Class C shares of the Fund. The performance of the other class
will vary based upon the difference in sales charges and fees assessed to
shareholders of that class. Past performance does not predict future results.

COMPARISON: FUND vs. INDEX -- (unaudited) (continued)
The AIG Senior Floating Rate Fund (Class C) returned 3.96%, only modestly
underperforming its benchmark, the S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index (the "LLI"),*
which returned 4.12% for the annual period ended December 31, 2017. The Fund
outperformed the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index,* a broad-based
fixed income market index, which returned 3.54% for the same annual period.
In aggregate, security selection contributed most favorably to the Fund's
results, driven primarily by strong selection within the energy, retailers,
leisure and financial institutions industries. This was partially offset by
weaker selection within the consumer products and consumer cyclical services
industries, which detracted.
Industry allocation overall added value as well, albeit far more modestly. The
Fund's overweight position in energy contributed positively to relative
results, as oil prices rose and the energy industry outpaced the LLI during the
annual period as a whole. Our focus in this industry was on companies that
operate in low cost basins and those reducing their cost structures, improving
their balance sheets and growing production. The Fund's underweight to
retailers, which underperformed the LLI during the annual period, also boosted
relative results. As traditional brick and mortar retailers continued to lose
share to online retailers like Amazon.com during the annual period, we remained
cautious on retail and thus took on an idiosyncratic approach to the industry
within the Fund. Detracting from the Fund's relative performance was its
underweight to media and entertainment, which outperformed the LLI during the
annual period. We remained cautious on this industry, focusing on television
and theater-related issues, as we believe several other sub-industries,
including radio, printing and newspapers, appear to be in decline. Having an
underweight to automotive, one of the strongest performing industries in the
LLI during the annual period, also hurt. We remained cautious on this industry
based on concerns about the auto cycle and the potential for capital
expenditures to increase materially due to autonomous driving vehicles.
Quality allocation as a whole contributed positively. Compared to the LLI, we
maintained overweight positions in loans rated single-B and lower, as we
believed they offered the best risk/reward profiles.
Among individual loans, we found what we considered to be the best
opportunities among higher quality, U.S.-focused issuers in less cyclical
industries. The individual loans that contributed most positively to the Fund's
absolute returns were those of fitness club owner and operator Town Sports
International Holdings, Inc., oil and gas properties owner and operator
American Energy Marcellus LLC, application software provider to the oil and gas
exploration and production industry Pinnacle Holdco SARL and shallow water
jack-up drilling services provider Shelf Drilling Holdings, Ltd. Significant
detractors from the Fund's absolute returns included loans issued by wind
producing power plant owner and operator TE Holdcorp LLC, beauty and personal
care products manufacturer and seller Revlon Consumer Products Corp., coal
miner Foresight Energy LLC and weight control program provider Weight Watchers
International, Inc.

* The S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index (LLI) reflects the market-weighted
performance of U.S. dollar-denominated institutional leveraged loans. The LLI
is the only domestic leveraged loan index that utilizes real-time market
weightings, spreads and interest payments. The Bloomberg Barclays U.S.
Aggregate Bond Index represents securities that are U.S. domestic, taxable and
dollar denominated. The index covers components for government and corporate
securities, mortgage pass-through securities and asset-backed securities.
Indices are not managed and an investor cannot invest directly into an index.
Securities listed may or may not be a part of current portfolio construction.
The Fund is not a money market fund and its net asset value may fluctuate.
Investments in loans involve certain risks including nonpayment of principal
and interest; collateral impairment; non-diversification and borrower industry
concentration; and lack of an active trading market, in certain cases, which
may impair the Fund's ability to obtain full value for loans sold. The Fund may
invest all or substantially all of its assets in loans or other securities
(e.g., unsecured loans or high yield securities) that are rated below
investment grade, or in comparable unrated securities. Credit risks include the
possibility of a default on the loan or bankruptcy of the borrower. The value
of these loans is subject to a greater degree of volatility in response to
interest rate fluctuations.

CODE OF ETHICS FOR PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE
AND PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING OFFICERS
I. Introduction
The Boards of Directors/Trustees of the Funds (the "Boards") have adopted
this Code of Ethics (this "Code") pursuant to Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act applicable to the Funds' Principal Executive Officer and Principal
Accounting Officer (the "Covered Officers" as set forth in Exhibit A) for the
purpose of deterring wrongdoing and promoting:
. Honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of conflicts of
interest between personal and professional relationships;
. Full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure;
. Compliance with applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations;
. The prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code to an appropriate
person or persons identified in the Code; and
. Accountability for adherence to the Code.
Each Covered Officer must comply with applicable law. Each Covered Officer
also has a responsibility to conduct himself or herself in an honest and ethical
manner and to adhere to a high standard of business ethics. Each Covered Officer
has leadership responsibilities that include promoting a culture of high ethical
standards and a commitment to compliance, maintaining a work environment that
encourages the internal reporting of compliance concerns and promptly addressing
compliance concerns. Each Covered Officer should also be sensitive to situations
that may give rise to conflicts of interest.
II. Honest and Ethical Conduct
a. Honesty, Diligence, and Professional Responsibility
Covered Officers are expected to observe both the form and the spirit of
the ethical principles contained in this Code. In particular, Covered Officers
must perform their duties and responsibilities for the Funds:
. with honesty, diligence, and a commitment to professional and ethical
responsibility;
. carefully, thoroughly and in a timely manner; and
. in conformity with applicable professional and technical standards.
b. Ethical Handling of Actual and Apparent Conflicts of Interest
A "conflict of interest" occurs when a Covered Officer's private interest
improperly interferes with the interests of, or his or her service to, a Fund.
For example, a conflict of interest would arise if a Covered Officer, or a
member of his or her immediate family, receives improper personal benefits as a
result of his or her position with the Fund.
Certain conflicts of interest arise out of the relationships between
Covered Officers and the Funds and already are subject to conflict of interest
provisions in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment
Company Act") and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the
"Investment Advisers Act"). For example, Covered Officers may not individually
engage in certain transactions (such as the purchase or sale of securities or
other property) with the Funds because of their status as "affiliated persons"
of the Funds. The compliance programs and procedures of the Funds and the Funds'
investment adviser, SunAmerica Asset Management, LLC ("SAAMCo"), are designed to
prevent, or identify and correct, violations of these provisions. This Code does
not, and is not intended to, repeat or replace these programs and procedures,
and such conflicts fall outside of the parameters of this Code.
Although typically not presenting an opportunity for improper personal
benefit, conflicts may arise from, or as a result of, the contractual
relationship between, the Funds and SAAMCo, of which the Covered Officers may
also be officers or employees. As a result, this Code recognizes that the
Covered Officers will, in the normal course of their duties (whether formally
for the Funds or for SAAMCo, or for both), be involved in establishing policies
and implementing decisions that will have different effects on the Funds and
SAAMCo. The participation of the Covered Officers in such activities is inherent
in the contractual relationship between the Funds and SAAMCo, and is consistent
with the performance by the Covered Officers of their duties as officers of the
Funds. Thus, if performed in conformity with the provisions of the Investment
Company Act and the Investment Advisers Act, such activities will be deemed to
have been handled ethically. In addition, it is recognized by the Boards that
the Covered Officers may also be officers or employees of other investment
companies advised by SAAMCo.
2
In particular, each Covered Officer must:
. Not use his or her personal influence or personal relationships to
influence investment decisions or financial reporting by a Fund whereby
the Covered Officer would benefit personally to the detriment of the Fund;
. Not cause a Fund to take action, or fail to take action, for the
individual personal benefit of the Covered Officer rather than the benefit
of the Fund; and
. Report at least annually to the Funds' Ethics Committee any material
transaction or relationship that could reasonably be expected to give rise
to a conflict of interest.
There are certain potential conflict of interest situations that should be
discussed with the Ethics Committee if material. Examples of these include:
. Service as a director on the board of any company;
. The receipt of any non-nominal gifts;
. The receipt of any entertainment from any company with which a Fund has
current or prospective business dealings unless such entertainment is
business-related, reasonable in cost, appropriate as to time and place,
and not so frequent as to raise any question of impropriety;
. Any ownership interest in, or any consulting or employment relationship
with, any of the Funds' service providers, other than SAAMCo, the Funds'
principal underwriter or any affiliated person thereof;
. A direct or indirect financial interest in commissions, transaction
charges or spreads paid by a Fund for effecting portfolio transactions or
for selling or redeeming shares other than an interest arising from the
Covered Officer's employment, such as compensation or equity ownership.
c. Conduct in the Preparation of Financial Statements
Covered Officers must not knowingly make any misrepresentations regarding
the Funds' financial statements or any facts used in the preparation of the
Funds' financial statements. This section is intended to prohibit:
. making, or permitting or directing another to make, materially false or
misleading entries in the Funds' financial statements or records;
. failing to correct the Funds' financial statements or records that are
materially false or misleading; and
. signing, or permitting or directing another to sign, a document containing
materially false or misleading financial information.
3
d. Obligations to the Independent Auditor of the Funds
In dealing with the Funds' independent auditor, Covered Officers must be
candid and not knowingly misrepresent facts or knowingly fail to disclose
material facts, and must respond to specific inquiries and requests by the
Funds' independent auditor.
Covered Officers must not take any action, or direct any person to take
any action, to fraudulently influence, coerce, manipulate or mislead the Funds'
independent auditor in the performance of an audit of the Funds' financial
statements for the purpose of rendering such financial statements materially
misleading.
III. Disclosure and Compliance
. Each Covered Officer will familiarize himself or herself with the
disclosure requirements generally applicable to the Funds;
. Each Covered Officer will not knowingly misrepresent, or cause others to
misrepresent, facts about the Funds to others, whether within or outside
the Funds, including to the Boards and auditors, or to governmental
regulators and self-regulatory organizations;
. Each Covered Officer will, to the extent appropriate within his or her
area of responsibility, consult with other officers and employees of the
Funds and SAAMCo with the goal of promoting full, fair, accurate, timely
and understandable disclosure in the reports and documents that the Funds
file with, or submit to, the SEC and in other public communications made
by the Funds; and
. It is the responsibility of each Covered Officer to promote compliance
with the standards and restrictions imposed by applicable laws, rules and
regulations.
IV. Reporting and Accountability
Each Covered Officer must:
. Upon adoption of the Code (or thereafter as applicable, upon becoming a
Covered Officer), affirm in writing to the Boards that he or she has
received, read and understands the Code;
. Annually thereafter affirm to the Boards that he or she has complied with
the requirements of the Code;
. Not retaliate against any other Covered Officer or affiliated person of
the Funds for reports of potential violations of this Code, provided the
reports are made in good faith; and
4
. Notify the Ethics Committee promptly if he or she knows of any violation
of this Code. Failure to do so is itself a violation of this Code.
The Ethics Committee is responsible for applying this Code to specific
situations in which questions are presented to it and has the authority to
interpret this Code in any particular situation. The Ethics Committee will also
consider waivers sought by the Covered Officers.
The Funds will act according to the following procedures in investigating
and enforcing this Code:
. The Ethics Committee will take all appropriate action to investigate any
potential violations reported to it;
. If, after such investigation, the Ethics Committee believes that no
violation has occurred, the Ethics Committee is not required to take any
further action;
. If the Ethics Committee determines that a violation has occurred, it will
consider appropriate action, which may include review of, and appropriate
modifications to, applicable policies and procedures; notification to
appropriate personnel of SAAMCo or its board; or a recommendation to
dismiss the Covered Officer;
. The Ethics Committee will be responsible for granting waivers, as
appropriate;
. The Ethics Committee will inform the Boards of violations or waivers of
this Code; and
. Any changes to or waivers of this Code will, to the extent required, be
disclosed as provided by SEC rules.
V. Other Policies and Procedures
This Code shall be the sole Code of Ethics adopted by the Funds for
purposes of Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the rules and forms
applicable to investment companies thereunder. Insofar as other policies or
procedures of the Funds, SAAMCo, the Funds' principal underwriter or other
service providers govern or purport to govern the behavior or activities of the
Covered Officers who are subject to this Code, they are superseded by this Code
to the extent that they overlap or conflict with the provisions of this Code.
The Code of Ethics of the Funds, SAAMCo and the Funds' principal underwriter,
under Rule 17j-1 of the Investment Company Act, and SAAMCo's more detailed
policies and procedures set forth in the SAAMCo Compliance Procedures Manual are
separate requirements applying to Covered Officers and others, and are not part
of this Code.
5
VI. Amendments
Any amendments to this Code, other than amendments to Exhibit A, must be
approved or ratified by a majority vote of the Boards.
VII. Confidentiality
All reports and records prepared or maintained pursuant to this Code shall
be considered confidential and shall be maintained and protected accordingly.
Except as otherwise required by law or this Code, such matters shall not be
disclosed to anyone other than the Funds, the Ethics Committee, SAAMCo and the
Boards and their independent counsel.
VIII. Internal Use
The Code is intended solely for internal use by the Funds and does not
constitute an admission, by or on behalf of the Funds, as to any fact,
circumstance or legal conclusion.
