To Our Shareholders:

We would like to share with you our report for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The total returns for Cohen & Steers International Realty Fund, Inc. (the Fund) and its comparative benchmarks were:

	Six Months Ended June 30, 2020
Cohen & Steers International Realty Fund:
Class A		–16.58	%
Class C		–16.78	%
Class I		–16.47	%
Class R		–16.61	%
Class Z		–16.42	%
FTSE EPRA Nareit Developed Ex-US Real Estate Index—neta		–21.49	%
S&P 500 Indexa		–3.08	%

The performance data quoted represent past performance. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The investment return and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate and shares, if redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Current total returns of the Fund can be obtained by visiting our website at cohenandsteers.com. All share class returns assume the reinvestment of all dividends and distributions at net asset value (NAV). Fund performance figures reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, without which the performance would have been lower. Performance quoted does not reflect the deduction of the maximum 4.50% initial sales charge on Class A shares or the 1.00% maximum contingent deferred sales charge on Class C shares. The 1.00% maximum contingent deferred sales charge on Class C shares applies if redemption occurs on or before the one year anniversary date of their purchase. If such charges were included, returns would have been lower. Index performance does not reflect the deduction of any fees, taxes or expenses. An investor cannot invest directly in an index. Performance figures for periods shorter than one year are not annualized.

Please note that distributions paid by the Fund to shareholders are subject to recharacterization for tax purposes and are taxable up to the amount of the Fund’s investment company taxable income and net realized gains. Distributions in excess of the Fund’s investment company taxable income and net realized gains are a return of capital distributed from the Fund’s assets.

^a  The FTSE EPRA Nareit Developed Ex-US Real Estate Index—net is an unmanaged market-capitalization-weighted total return index which consists of publicly traded equity real estate investment trusts (REITs) and listed property companies from developed markets excluding the United States and is net of dividend withholding taxes. The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged index of 500 large-capitalization stocks that is frequently used as a general measure of U.S. stock market performance.

Market Review

International real estate securities declined in the first half of 2020 along with stocks broadly, falling sharply in the first quarter as the spread of COVID-19 led to widespread economic and social shutdowns. Real estate securities partly recovered in the second quarter, with markets responding positively to massive and unprecedented fiscal and monetary stimulus policies. The listed real estate market was also supported by mostly intact earnings and dividends, and by encouraging rent collection data (outside of retail and hotel landlords and certain office companies).

Returns were broadly negative by region, with North America, Europe and Asia Pacific all declining about 20% for the six-month period. Performance was more varied when separated by property type. Retail and hotel owners, which were especially hindered by virus concerns, had the largest declines. Apartment and self storage landlords outperformed, as demand was fairly resilient. Data centers and industrial companies were the best performers, rising amid a significant increase in demand for e-commerce–related services due to a surge in working and purchasing from home.

Fund Performance

The Fund had a negative total return in the period but outperformed its benchmark.

Real estate securities in the U.K. were broadly pressured as virus concerns dampened an already weak economy struggling with Brexit uncertainty. Stock selection in the market contributed positively to the Fund’s relative return, as it was underweight or did not own certain retail and office companies that were among the poorest performers. In addition, the Fund was overweight companies with defensive or structural growth characteristics that held up relatively well, including industrial owner Segro and health care landlord Assura.

The Netherlands was a notable underperformer due to weakness in retail property owners. Shopping center owner Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield, which accounts for most of the Netherlands’ weight in the index, fell more than 60% in the period on disappointing demand in its Europe and U.S. properties. The Fund’s underweight in the company helped relative performance, as did the Fund’s avoidance of retail landlords in Australia that had sizable declines.

Germany outperformed with a slightly positive return, aided by gains in residential companies amid strong demand and limited new supply. Favorable stock selection in the market aided the Fund’s performance, led by overweights in apartment owners LEG Immobilien and Deutsche Wohnen, both of which advanced.

Hong Kong outperformed the index but saw wide swings in returns amid policy uncertainty. Stocks plunged in May 2020 when the Chinese government unexpectedly imposed a new national security law in Hong Kong, bypassing local legislative authorities and sparking concerns of renewed civil unrest. However, the market rebounded in June amid no major escalation in either social unrest or capital outflows. Stock selection in Hong Kong helped performance, in part due to an overweight in mall owner Hang Lung Properties, which rose on optimism about the company’s ties to reaccelerating consumption in China. The Fund’s out-of-index allocation to China itself further aided performance, as did stock selection in Singapore.

COHEN & STEERS INTERNATIONAL REALTY FUND, INC.

Canada modestly underperformed in the period, with the resource-rich country hindered by a sharp downturn in crude oil prices. Stock selection detracted from the Fund’s performance, due mainly to an overweight in Boardwalk REIT, which owns apartments in the heart of Canada’s oil-producing region. The stock had a significant decline on concerns regarding the impact of lower oil demand on employment.

Japan had a significant decline, in part due to concerns that a slowing economy would hinder office markets. Stock selection hindered relative performance; the Fund did not invest in Nippon Prologis REIT, an industrial company that had a large gain.

Switzerland held up relatively well, reflecting its perceived status as a safe haven in a period of elevated global economic uncertainty. The Fund did not invest in the market during the period, which detracted from performance. The non-allocation was based on our view of unattractive relative stock price valuations and real estate returns with limited longer-term rental growth prospects.

Impact of Foreign Currency on Fund Performance

The currency impact of the Fund’s investments in foreign securities detracted from absolute performance during the period. Although the Fund reports its NAV and pays dividends in U.S. dollars, the Fund’s investments denominated in foreign currencies are subject to foreign currency risk. Overall, other currencies modestly depreciated against the U.S. dollar. Consequently, changes in the exchange rates between foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar were a net headwind for absolute returns.

Sincerely,

JON CHEIGH Portfolio Manager	WILLIAM LEUNG Portfolio Manager

The performance data quoted represent past performance. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate and shares, if redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance information current to the most recent month end can be obtained by visiting our website at cohenandsteers.com. All share class returns assume the reinvestment of all dividends and distributions at NAV. The performance table does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. During the periods presented above, the investment advisor waived fees and/or reimbursed expenses. Without this arrangement, performance would have been lower.

The annualized gross and net expense ratios, respectively, for each class of shares as disclosed in the May 1, 2020 prospectus were as follows: Class A—1.44% and 1.35%; Class C—2.09% and 2.00%; Class I—1.16% and 1.00%; Class R—1.59% and 1.50% and Class Z—1.09% and 1.00%. Through June 30, 2022, the investment advisor has contractually agreed to waive its fee and/or reimburse the Fund for expenses incurred so that the Fund’s total annual operating expenses (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, taxes and extraordinary expenses) do not exceed 1.35% for Class A shares, 2.00% for Class C shares, 1.00% for Class I shares, 1.50% for Class R shares and 1.00% for Class Z shares. This contractual agreement can be amended at any time by agreement of the Fund’s Board of Directors and the investment advisor and will terminate automatically in the event of termination of the investment advisory agreement between the investment advisor and the Fund.

^a  Reflects a 4.50% front-end sales charge.

^b  Reflects a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.00%.

^c  Inception dates: March 31, 2005 for Class A, C and I and October 1, 2015 for Class R and Z, respectively.

Expense Example (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments; and (2) ongoing costs including investment advisory fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees; and other Fund expenses. This example 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 the beginning of the period and held for the entire period January 1, 2020—June 30, 2020.

Actual Expenses

The first line of the following table provides information about actual account values and expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the following table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 cost of investing in the 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.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads). Therefore, the second line of the table 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 transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

Note 1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

Cohen & Steers International Realty Fund, Inc. (the Fund) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland on November 23, 2004 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as a diversified, open-end management investment company. On November 4, 2019, the Fund’s diversification status under the 1940 Act changed from a non-diversified fund to a diversified fund. The Fund’s investment objective is total return. The authorized shares of the Fund are divided into six classes designated Class A, C, F, I, R and Z shares. Each of the Fund’s shares has equal dividend, liquidation and voting rights (except for matters relating to distribution and shareholder servicing of such shares). Class F shares are currently not available for purchase.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The Fund is an investment company and, accordingly, follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 946—Investment Companies. The accounting policies of the Fund are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Portfolio Valuation: Investments in securities that are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) are valued, except as indicated below, at the last sale price reflected at the close of the NYSE on the business day as of which such value is being determined. If there has been no sale on such day, the securities are valued at the mean of the closing bid and ask prices on such day or, if no ask price is available, at the bid price.

Securities not listed on the NYSE but listed on other domestic or foreign securities exchanges (including NASDAQ) are valued in a similar manner. Securities traded on more than one securities exchange are valued at the last sale price reflected at the close of the exchange representing the principal market for such securities on the business day as of which such value is being determined. If after the close of a foreign market, but prior to the close of business on the day the securities are being valued, market conditions change significantly, certain non-U.S. equity holdings may be fair valued pursuant to procedures established by the Board of Directors.

Readily marketable securities traded in the over-the-counter (OTC) market, including listed securities whose primary market is believed by Cohen & Steers Capital Management, Inc. (the investment advisor) to be OTC, are valued on the basis of prices provided by a third-party pricing service or third-party broker-dealers when such prices are believed by the investment advisor, pursuant to delegation by the Board of Directors, to reflect the fair value of such securities.

Short-term debt securities with a maturity date of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Investments in open-end mutual funds are valued at net asset value (NAV).

COHEN & STEERS INTERNATIONAL REALTY FUND, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)—(Continued)

The policies and procedures approved by the Fund’s Board of Directors delegate authority to make fair value determinations to the investment advisor, subject to the oversight of the Board of Directors. The investment advisor has established a valuation committee (Valuation Committee) to administer, implement and oversee the fair valuation process according to the policies and procedures approved annually by the Board of Directors. Among other things, these procedures allow the Fund to utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.

Securities for which market prices are unavailable, or securities for which the investment advisor determines that the bid and/or ask price or a counterparty valuation does not reflect market value, will be valued at fair value, as determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee, pursuant to procedures approved by the Fund’s Board of Directors. Circumstances in which market prices may be unavailable include, but are not limited to, when trading in a security is suspended, the exchange on which the security is traded is subject to an unscheduled close or disruption or material events occur after the close of the exchange on which the security is principally traded. In these circumstances, the Fund determines fair value in a manner that fairly reflects the market value of the security on the valuation date based on consideration of any information or factors it deems appropriate. These may include, but are not limited to, recent transactions in comparable securities, information relating to the specific security and developments in the markets.

Foreign equity fair value pricing procedures utilized by the Fund may cause certain non-U.S. equity holdings to be fair valued on the basis of fair value factors provided by a pricing service to reflect any significant market movements between the time the Fund values such securities and the earlier closing of foreign markets.

The Fund’s use of fair value pricing may cause the NAV of Fund shares to differ from the NAV that would be calculated using market quotations. Fair value pricing involves subjective judgments and it is possible that the fair value determined for a security may be materially different than the value that could be realized upon the sale of that security.

Fair value is defined as the price that the Fund would expect to receive upon the sale of an investment or expect to pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction with an independent buyer in the principal market or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the investment or liability. The hierarchy of inputs that are used in determining the fair value of the Fund’s investments is summarized below.

• Level 1—quoted prices in active markets for identical investments

• Level 2—other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, credit risk, etc.)

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

The inputs or methodology used for valuing investments may or may not be an indication of the risk associated with those investments. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy.

Security Transactions, Investment Income and Expense Allocations: Security transactions are recorded on trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are recorded on the basis of identified cost. Interest income, which includes the amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends on foreign securities, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed after the ex-dividend date. Income, expenses (other than expenses attributable to a specific class) and realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

Foreign Currency Translation: The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon prevailing exchange rates on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon prevailing exchange rates on the respective dates of such transactions. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments.

26

COHEN & STEERS INTERNATIONAL REALTY FUND, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)—(Continued)

Net realized foreign currency transaction gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, (excluding gains and losses on forward foreign currency exchange contracts, which are presented separately, if any), currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses arise from changes in the values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, on the date of valuation, resulting from changes in exchange rates. Pursuant to U.S. federal income tax regulations, certain foreign currency gains/losses included in realized and unrealized gains/losses are included in or are a reduction of ordinary income for federal income tax purposes.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders: Dividends from net investment income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with U.S. federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid semi-annually. Net realized capital gains, unless offset by any available capital loss carryforward, are typically distributed to shareholders at least annually. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are automatically reinvested in full and fractional shares of the Fund based on the NAV per share at the close of business on the payable date, unless the shareholder has elected to have them paid in cash.

Dividends from net investment income are subject to recharacterization for tax purposes. Based upon the results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020, the investment advisor considers it likely that a portion of the dividends will be reclassified to distributions from net realized gain upon the final determination of the Fund’s taxable income after December 31, 2020, the Fund’s fiscal year end.

Income Taxes: It is the policy of the Fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company (RIC), if such qualification is in the best interest of the shareholders, by complying with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to RICs, and by distributing substantially all of its taxable earnings to its shareholders. Also, in order to avoid the payment of any federal excise taxes, the Fund will distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net realized gains on a calendar year basis. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary. Dividend and interest income from holdings in non-U.S. securities is recorded net of non-U.S. taxes paid. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal and applicable state income tax returns as well as its tax positions in non-U.S. jurisdictions in which it trades for all open tax years and has concluded that as of June 30, 2020, no additional provisions for income tax are required in the Fund’s financial statements. The Fund’s tax positions for the tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service, state departments of revenue and by foreign tax authorities.

Note 2. Investment Advisory, Administration Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates

Investment Advisory Fees: Cohen & Steers Capital Management, Inc. serves as the Fund’s investment advisor pursuant to an investment advisory agreement (the investment advisory agreement). Under the terms of the investment advisory agreement, the investment advisor provides the Fund with

27

COHEN & STEERS INTERNATIONAL REALTY FUND, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)—(Continued)

day-to-day investment decisions and generally manages the Fund’s investments in accordance with the stated policies of the Fund, subject to the supervision of the Board of Directors.

For the services provided to the Fund, the investment advisor receives a fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of 0.95% of the average daily net assets of the Fund up to and including $1.5 billion and 0.85% of the average daily net assets above $1.5 billion.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and through June 30, 2022, the investment advisor has contractually agreed to waive its fee and/or reimburse the Fund for expenses incurred so that the Fund’s total annual operating expenses (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, taxes and extraordinary through expenses), do not exceed 1.35% for Class A shares, 2.00% for Class C shares, 1.00% for Class I shares, 1.50% for Class R shares and 1.00% for Class Z shares . This contractual agreement can only be amended or terminated by agreement of the Fund’s Board of Directors and the investment advisor and will terminate automatically in the event of termination of the investment advisory agreement between the investment advisor and the Fund. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, fees waived and/or expenses reimbursed totaled $444,497.

Under subadvisory agreements between the investment advisor and each of Cohen & Steers Asia Limited and Cohen & Steers UK Limited (collectively, the subadvisors), affiliates of the investment advisor, the subadvisors are responsible for managing the Fund’s investments in certain non-U.S. real estate securities. For their services provided under the subadvisory agreements, the investment advisor (not the Fund) pays the subadvisors. The investment advisor allocates 50% of the investment advisory fee received from the Fund among itself and each subadvisor based on the portion of the Fund’s average daily net assets managed by the investment advisor and each subadvisor.

Administration Fees: The Fund has entered into an administration agreement with the investment advisor under which the investment advisor performs certain administrative functions for the Fund and receives a fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of 0.04% of the average daily net assets of the Fund. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Fund incurred $ 111,588 in fees under this administration agreement. Additionally, the Fund pays State Street Bank and Trust Company as co-administrator under a fund accounting and administration agreement.

Distribution Fees: Shares of the Fund are distributed by Cohen & Steers Securities, LLC (the distributor), an affiliated entity of the investment advisor. The Fund has adopted an amended distribution plan (the plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, which allows the Fund to pay distribution fees for the sale and distribution of its shares. The plan provides that the Fund will pay the distributor a fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares, up to 0.75% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares and up to 0.50% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class R shares. In addition, with respect to Class R shares, such amounts may also be used to pay for services to Fund shareholders or services related to the maintenance of shareholder accounts.

There is a maximum initial sales charge of 4.50% for Class A shares. There is a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 1.00% on purchases of $1 million or more of Class A shares, which applies if redemption occurs within one year from purchase. There is a maximum CDSC of 1.00% on Class C shares, which applies if redemption occurs within one year from purchase. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Fund has been advised that the distributor received $2,163, which represents

28

COHEN & STEERS INTERNATIONAL REALTY FUND, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)—(Continued)

a portion of the sales commissions paid by shareholders from the sale of Class A shares, and $0 and $119 of CDSC relating to redemptions of Class A and Class C shares, respectively. The distributor has advised the Fund that proceeds from the CDSC on these classes are used by the distributor to defray its expenses related to providing distribution-related services to the Fund in connection with the sale of these classes, including payments to dealers and other financial intermediaries for selling these classes. The payment of a CDSC may result in the distributor receiving amounts greater or less than the upfront commission paid by the distributor to the financial intermediary.

Shareholder Servicing Fees: For shareholder services, the Fund pays the distributor or its affiliates a fee, accrued daily, at an annual rate of up to 0.10% of the average daily net assets of the Fund’s Class A and Class I shares and up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund’s Class C shares. The distributor is responsible for paying qualified financial institutions for shareholder services.

Directors’ and Officers’ Fees: Certain directors and officers of the Fund are also directors, officers and/or employees of the investment advisor. The Fund does not pay compensation to directors and officers affiliated with the investment advisor except for the Chief Compliance Officer, who received compensation from the investment advisor, which was reimbursed by the Fund, in the amount of $2,182 for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Other: As of June 30, 2020, approximately 53.1% of the Fund’s outstanding shares were owned by shareholders investing either directly or indirectly through an account, platform or program sponsored by one financial institution. Investment and asset allocation decisions by either a direct shareholder or financial institution regarding the account, platform or program through which multiple shareholders invest may result in subscription and redemption decisions that have a significant impact on the assets, expenses and trading activities of the Fund. Such a decision may cause the Fund to sell assets at disadvantageous times or prices, and may negatively affect the Fund’s NAV and performance.

Note 3. Purchases and Sales of Securities

Purchases and sales of securities, excluding short-term investments, for the six months ended June 30, 2020, totaled $288,388,832 and $284,032,335, respectively.

Note 4. Income Tax Information

As of June 30, 2020, the federal tax cost and net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in value of investments held were as follows:

Cost of investments in securities for federal income tax purposes	$	516,093,664
Gross unrealized appreciation on investments	$	55,336,551

Note 5. Capital Stock

The Fund is authorized to issue 1.8 billion shares of capital stock, at a par value of $0.001 per share, classified in six classes as follows: 250 million of Class A capital stock, 250 million of Class C capital stock, 250 million of Class F capital stock, 550 million of Class I capital stock, 250 million of Class R capital stock and 250 million of Class Z capital stock. Class F shares are currently not available for purchase. The Fund’s Board of Directors may increase or decrease the aggregate number of shares of common stock that the Fund has authority to issue. With the exception of Class C shares held through certain intermediaries, as noted in the Fund’s prospectus, effective March 15, 2019, Class C shares automatically convert to Class A shares on a monthly basis approximately ten years after the original date of purchase. As described in a supplement dated August 13, 2020 to the Fund’s prospectus and statement of additional information, effective September 15, 2020, with the exception of Class C shares held through certain intermediaries, Class C shares will automatically convert into Class A shares on a monthly basis approximately eight years after the original date of purchase. Transactions in Fund shares were as follows:

Note 6. Other Risks

Common Stock Risk: While common stocks have historically generated higher average returns than fixed-income securities over the long-term, common stocks have also experienced significantly more volatility in those returns, although under certain market conditions, fixed-income investments may have comparable or greater price volatility. The value of common stocks and other equity securities will fluctuate in response to developments concerning the company, political and regulatory circumstances, the stock market, and the economy. In the short term, stock prices can fluctuate dramatically in response to these developments. Different parts of the market and different types of equity securities can react differently to these developments. For example, stocks of large companies can react differently than stocks of smaller companies, and value stocks (stocks of companies that are undervalued by various measures and have potential for long-term capital appreciation), can react differently from growth stocks (stocks of companies with attractive cash flow returns on invested capital and earnings that are expected to grow). These developments can affect a single company, all companies within the same industry, economic sector or geographic region, or the stock market as a whole.

Real Estate Market Risk: Since the Fund concentrates its assets in companies engaged in the real estate industry, an investment in the Fund will be closely linked to the performance of the real estate markets. Risks of investing in real estate securities include falling property values due to increasing vacancies, declining rents resulting from economic, legal, tax, political or technological developments, lack of liquidity, limited diversification, and sensitivity to certain economic factors such as interest-rate

31

COHEN & STEERS INTERNATIONAL REALTY FUND, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)—(Continued)

changes and market recessions. Real estate company prices also may drop because of the failure of borrowers to pay their loans and poor management, and residential developers, in particular, could be negatively impacted by falling home prices, slower mortgage origination and rising construction costs. The risks of investing in REITs are similar to those associated with direct investments in real estate securities.

REIT Risk: In addition to the risks of securities linked to the real estate industry, REITs are subject to certain other risks related to their structure and focus. REITs are dependent upon management skills and generally may not be diversified. REITs are also subject to heavy cash flow dependency, defaults by borrowers and self-liquidation. In addition, REITs could possibly fail to (i) qualify for pass-through of income under applicable tax law, or (ii) maintain their exemptions from registration under the 1940 Act. The above factors may also adversely affect a borrower’s or a lessee’s ability to meet its obligations to the REIT. In the event of a default by a borrower or lessee, the REIT may experience delays in enforcing its rights as a mortgagee or lessor and may incur substantial costs associated with protecting its investments.

Small- and Medium-Sized Companies Risk: Real estate companies in the industry tend to be small- to medium-sized companies in relation to the equity markets as a whole. There may be less trading in a smaller company’s stock, which means that buy and sell transactions in that stock could have a larger impact on the stock’s price than is the case with larger company stocks. Smaller companies also may have fewer lines of business so that changes in any one line of business may have a greater impact on a smaller company’s stock price than is the case for a larger company. Further, smaller company stocks may perform differently in different cycles than larger company stocks. Accordingly, real estate company shares can, and at times will, perform differently than large company stocks.

Foreign (Non-U.S.) Securities Risk: The Fund directly purchases securities of foreign issuers. Risks of investing in foreign securities include currency risks, future political and economic developments and possible imposition of foreign withholding taxes on income or proceeds payable on the securities. In addition, there may be less publicly available information about a foreign issuer than about a domestic issuer, and foreign issuers may not be subject to the same accounting, auditing and financial recordkeeping standards and requirements as domestic issuers. Moreover, securities of many foreign issuers and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. issuers.

Foreign Currency and Currency Hedging Risk: Although the Fund will report its NAV and pay dividends in U.S. dollars, foreign securities often are purchased with and make any dividend and interest payments in foreign currencies. Therefore, the Fund’s investments in foreign securities will be subject to foreign currency risk, which means that the Fund’s NAV could decline as a result of changes in the exchange rates between foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar. Certain foreign countries may impose restrictions on the ability of issuers of foreign securities to make payment of principal, dividends and interest to investors located outside the country, due to blockage of foreign currency exchanges or otherwise. The Fund may, but is not required to, engage in various instruments that are designed to hedge the Fund’s foreign currency risks.

32

COHEN & STEERS INTERNATIONAL REALTY FUND, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)—(Continued)

If the Fund were to utilize derivatives for the purpose of hedging foreign currency risks, it would be subject to risks different from, and possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in traditional securities. Among the risks presented are counterparty risk, financial leverage risk, liquidity risk, OTC trading risk and tracking risk. The use of derivatives can lead to losses because of adverse movements in the price or value of the underlying asset, index or rate, which may be magnified by certain features of the derivatives.

Geopolitical Risk: Occurrence of global events similar to those in recent years, such as war, terrorist attacks, natural or environmental disasters, country instability, infectious disease epidemics, such as that caused by the COVID-19 virus, market instability, debt crises and down grades, embargoes, tariffs, sanctions and other trade barriers and other governmental trade or market control programs, the potential exit of a country from its respective union and related geopolitical events, may result in market volatility and may have long-lasting impacts on both the U.S. and global financial markets. Additionally, those events, as well as other changes in foreign and domestic political and economic conditions, could adversely affect individual issuers or related groups of issuers, securities markets, interest rates, secondary trading, credit ratings, inflation, investor sentiment and other factors affecting the value of the Fund’s investments.

An outbreak of respiratory disease caused by a novel coronavirus designated as COVID-19 has resulted in, among other things, extreme volatility in the financial markets and severe losses, reduced liquidity of many instruments, significant travel restrictions, significant disruptions to business operations, supply chains and customer activity, lower consumer demand for goods and services, service and event cancellations, reductions and other changes, strained healthcare systems, as well as general concern and uncertainty. The impact of the COVID-19 outbreak has negatively affected the global economy, the economies of individual countries, and the financial performance of individual issuers, sectors, industries, asset classes, and markets in significant and unforeseen ways. Pandemics may also exacerbate other pre-existing political, social, economic, market and financial risks. The effects of the outbreak in developing or emerging market countries may be greater due to less established health care systems and supply chains. The COVID-19 pandemic and its effects may be short term or, particularly in the event of a “second wave” of infections, may result in a sustained economic downturn or a global recession, ongoing market volatility and/or decreased liquidity in the financial markets, exchange trading suspensions and closures, higher default rates, domestic and foreign political and social instability and damage to diplomatic and international trade relations. There are numerous potential vaccines in development, but the scalability and effectiveness of such vaccines are unknown. Even if an effective vaccine were to become readily available, the political, social, economic, market and financial risks of COVID-19 could persist for years to come. The foregoing could impair the Fund’s ability to maintain operational standards (such as with respect to satisfying redemption requests), disrupt the operations of the Fund’s service providers, adversely affect the value and liquidity of the Fund’s investments, and negatively impact the Fund’s performance and your investment in the Fund.

On January 31, 2020, the United Kingdom (UK) withdrew from the European Union (EU) (referred to as Brexit), commencing a transition period. During this period, the UK will no longer be considered a member state of the EU, but will remain subject to EU law, regulations and maintain access to the EU

33

COHEN & STEERS INTERNATIONAL REALTY FUND, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)—(Continued)

single market while the UK and EU negotiate and agree on the nature of their future relationship. The transition period is expected to end December 31, 2020, subject to extension. Brexit has resulted in volatility in European and global markets and could have negative long-term impacts on financial markets in the UK and throughout Europe. There is considerable uncertainty about the potential consequences of Brexit, how negotiations of trade agreements will proceed, and how the financial markets will react. As this process unfolds, markets may be further disrupted. Given the size and importance of the UK’s economy, uncertainty about its legal, political and economic relationship with the remaining member states of the EU may continue to be a source of instability. In addition, if the UK and the EU are unable to agree on trade and/or other agreements by the end of the transition period, or a related extension, the economic impact resulting from Brexit may be more negative.

Growing tensions, including trade disputes, between the United States and other nations, or among foreign powers, and possible diplomatic, trade or other sanctions could adversely impact the global economy, financial markets and the Fund. The strengthening or weakening of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies may, among other things, adversely affect the Fund’s investments denominated in non-U.S. dollar currencies. It is difficult to predict when similar events affecting the U.S. or global financial markets may occur, the effects that such events may have, and the duration of those effects.

Regulatory Risk: The U.S. government has proposed and adopted multiple regulations that could have a long-lasting impact on the Fund and on the mutual fund industry in general. The Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) final rules, related requirements and amendments to modernize reporting and disclosure, along with other potential upcoming regulations, could, among other things, restrict the Fund’s ability to engage in transactions, impact flows into the Fund and/or increase overall expenses of the Fund. In addition, the SEC, Congress, various exchanges and regulatory and self-regulatory authorities, both domestic and foreign, have undertaken reviews of the use of derivatives by registered investment companies, which could affect the nature and extent of instruments used by the Fund. While the full extent of all of these regulations is still unclear, these regulations and actions may adversely affect both the Fund and the instruments in which the Fund invests as well as its ability to execute its investment strategy. Similarly, regulatory developments in other countries may have an unpredictable and adverse impact on the Fund.

The SEC has proposed a new rule that would replace present SEC and SEC staff regulatory guidance related to limits on a registered investment company’s use of derivative instruments and certain other transactions, such as short sales and reverse repurchase agreements. There is no assurance that the rule will be adopted. The proposed rule would, among other things, limit the ability of the Fund to enter into derivative transactions and certain other transactions, which may substantially curtail the Fund’s ability to use derivative instruments as part of the Fund’s investment strategy and could ultimately prevent the Fund from being able to achieve its investment goals.

Large Shareholder Risk: The Fund may have one or more large shareholders or a group of shareholders investing in Fund shares indirectly through an account, platform or program sponsored by a financial institution. Investment and asset allocation decisions by such financial institutions regarding the account, platform or program through which multiple shareholders invest may result in subscription and redemption decisions that have a significant impact on the assets, expenses and trading activities

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)—(Continued)

of the Fund. Such a decision may cause the Fund to sell assets (or invest cash) at disadvantageous times or prices, increase or accelerate taxable gains or transaction costs and may negatively affect the Fund’s NAV, performance, or ability to satisfy redemptions in a timely manner.

This is not a complete list of the risks of investing in the Fund. For additional information concerning the risks of investing in the Fund, please consult the Fund’s prospectus.

Note 7. Other

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

Note 8. Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated events and transactions occurring after June 30, 2020 through the date that the financial statements were issued, and has determined that no additional disclosure in the financial statements is required.

APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUBADVISORY AGREEMENTS

The Board of Directors of the Fund, including a majority of the directors who are not parties to the Fund’s investment advisory and subadvisory agreements (the Advisory Agreements), or interested persons of any such party (the Independent Directors), has the responsibility under the Investment Company Act of 1940 to approve the Fund’s Advisory Agreements for their initial two year terms and their continuation annually thereafter at a meeting of the Board of Directors called for the purpose of voting on the approval or continuation. The Advisory Agreements were discussed at a meeting of the Independent Directors, in their capacity as the Contract Review Committee, held on June 2, 2020 and at meetings of the full Board of Directors held on March 17, 2020 and June 9, 2020. The Independent Directors, in their capacity as the Contract Review Committee, also discussed the Advisory Agreements in executive session on June 8, 2020. At the meeting of the full Board of Directors on June 9, 2020, the Advisory Agreements were unanimously continued for a term ending June 30, 2021 by the Fund’s Board of Directors, including the Independent Directors. The Independent Directors were represented by independent counsel who assisted them in their deliberations during the meetings and executive sessions.

In considering whether to continue the Advisory Agreements, the Board of Directors reviewed materials provided by an independent data provider, which included, among other items, fee, expense and performance information compared to peer funds (the Peer Funds and, collectively with the Fund, the Peer Group) and performance comparisons to a larger category universe; summary information prepared by the Fund’s investment advisor (the Investment Advisor); and a memorandum from Fund counsel outlining the legal duties of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors also spoke directly with representatives of the independent data provider and met with investment advisory personnel. In addition, the Board of Directors considered information provided from time to time by the Investment Advisor throughout the year at meetings of the Board of Directors, including presentations by portfolio managers relating to the investment performance of the Fund and the investment strategies used in pursuing the Fund’s objective. The Board of Directors also considered information provided in response to a request for information submitted by counsel to the Independent Directors, as well as information provided in response to a supplemental request. Additionally, the Independent Directors noted that in connection with their considerations, that they had received information from the Investment Advisor about, and discussed with the Investment Advisor, the operations of its business continuity plan and related matters and the operations of third party service providers during the COVID-19 pandemic. In particular, the Board of Directors considered the following:

(i) The nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by the Investment Advisor and the Subadvisors: The Board of Directors reviewed the services that the Investment Advisor and the sub-investment advisors (the Subadvisors) provide to the Fund, including, but not limited to, making the day-to-day investment decisions for the Fund, placing orders for the investment and reinvestment of the Fund’s assets, furnishing information to the Board of Directors of the Fund regarding the Fund’s portfolio, providing individuals to serve as Fund officers, and, for the Investment Advisor, generally managing the Fund’s investments in accordance with the stated policies of the Fund. The Board of Directors also discussed with officers and portfolio managers of the Fund the types of transactions conducted on behalf of the Fund. Additionally, the Board of Directors took into account the services provided by the Investment Advisor and the Subadvisors to other funds and accounts, including those that have investment objectives and strategies similar to those of the Fund. The Board of Directors also

37

COHEN & STEERS INTERNATIONAL REALTY FUND, INC.

considered the education, background and experience of the Investment Advisor’s and Subadvisors’ personnel, particularly noting the potential benefit that the portfolio managers’ work experience and favorable reputation can have on the Fund. The Board of Directors further noted the Investment Advisor’s and Subadvisors’ ability to attract qualified and experienced personnel. The Board of Directors also considered the administrative services provided by the Investment Advisor, including compliance and accounting services. After consideration of the above factors, among others, the Board of Directors concluded that the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Investment Advisor and the Subadvisors are satisfactory and appropriate.

(ii) Investment performance of the Fund and the Investment Advisor and Subadvisors: The Board of Directors considered the investment performance of the Fund compared to Peer Funds and compared to a relevant benchmark. The Board of Directors noted that the Fund outperformed the Peer Group medians for the three- and five-year periods ended March 31, 2020, ranking second out of five peers and second out of five peers, respectively. The Board of Directors also noted that the Fund represented the Peer Group medians for the one- and ten-year periods ended March 31, 2020. The Board of Directors considered that the Fund outperformed its benchmark for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods ended March 31, 2020. The Board of Directors engaged in discussions with the Investment Advisor regarding the contributors to and detractors from the Fund’s performance during the period, including the relevant implications of the continuing COVID-19 pandemic. The Board of Directors also considered supplemental information provided by the Investment Advisor, including a narrative summary of various factors affecting performance and the Investment Advisor’s performance in managing other real estate funds. The Board of Directors determined that Fund performance, in light of all the considerations noted above, supported the continuation of the Advisory Agreements.

(iii) Cost of the services to be provided and profits to be realized by the Investment Advisor from the relationship with the Fund: The Board of Directors considered the contractual and actual management fees paid by the Fund, as well as the Fund’s total expense ratio. As part of its analysis, the Board of Directors gave consideration to the fee and expense analyses provided by the independent data provider. The Board of Directors noted that each of the Fund’s actual management fee and total expense ratio represented the Peer Group median. The Board of Directors considered that the Investment Advisor is waiving its fees and/or reimbursing expenses to limit the overall operating expenses of the Fund. The Board of Directors noted that the Fund has a breakpoint of 0.10% on assets under management over $1.5 billion; however, the reduced fee is not currently applicable due to the size of the Fund. In light of the considerations above, the Board of Directors concluded that the Fund’s current expense structure was satisfactory.

The Board of Directors also reviewed information regarding the profitability to the Investment Advisor of its relationship with the Fund. The Board of Directors considered the level of the Investment Advisor’s profits and whether the profits were reasonable for the Investment Advisor. Since the Subadvisors are paid by the Investment Advisor (and not by the Fund) for investment services provided to the Fund and are affiliates of the Investment Advisor, the Board of Directors considered the profitability of the Investment Advisor as a whole and did not consider the Subadvisors separate profitability to be particularly relevant to their determination. The Board of Directors took into consideration other benefits to be derived by the Investment Advisor in connection with the Advisory Agreements, noting particularly the research and related services, within the meaning of Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that the Investment Advisor receives by allocating the Fund’s

38

COHEN & STEERS INTERNATIONAL REALTY FUND, INC.

brokerage transactions. The Board of Directors further considered that the Investment Advisor continues to reinvest profits back in the business, including upgrading and/or implementing new trading, compliance and accounting systems, and by adding investment personnel to the portfolio management teams. The Board of Directors also considered the administrative services provided by the Investment Advisor and the associated administration fee paid to the Investment Advisor for such services under the Administration Agreement. The Board of Directors determined that the services received under the Administration Agreement are beneficial to the Fund. The Board of Directors concluded that the profits realized by the Investment Advisor from its relationship with the Fund were reasonable and consistent with the Investment Advisor’s fiduciary duties.

(iv) The extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows and whether fee levels would reflect such economies of scale: The Board of Directors noted that the Fund’s advisory fee schedule contains a breakpoint of 0.10% once the Fund’s assets under management reach $1.5 billion. The Board of Directors considered the Fund’s asset size and determined that there were not at this time significant economies of scale that were not being shared with shareholders. In considering economies of scale, the Board of Directors also noted, as discussed above in (iii), that the Investment Advisor continues to reinvest profits back in the business.

(v) Comparison of services to be rendered and fees to be paid to those under other investment advisory contracts, such as contracts of the same and other investment advisors or other clients: As discussed above in (iii), the Board of Directors compared the fees paid under the Advisory Agreements to those under other investment advisory contracts of other investment advisors managing Peer Funds. The Board of Directors also compared the services rendered and fees paid under the Advisory Agreements to fees paid, including the ranges of such fees, under the Investment Advisor’s other fund advisory agreements and advisory contracts with institutional and other clients with similar investment mandates, noting that the Investment Advisor provides more services to the Fund than it does for institutional or subadvised accounts. The Board of Directors also considered the entrepreneurial risk and financial exposure assumed by the Investment Advisor in developing and managing the Fund that the Investment Advisor does not have with institutional and other clients and other differences in the management of registered investment companies and institutional accounts. The Board of Directors determined that on a comparative basis the fees under the Advisory Agreements were reasonable in relation to the services provided.

No single factor was cited as determinative to the decision of the Board of Directors, and each Director may have assigned different weights to the various factors. Rather, after weighing all of the considerations and conclusions discussed above, the Board of Directors, including the Independent Directors, unanimously approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreements.

LIQUIDITY RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

Pursuant to Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Liquidity Rule), the Fund has adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the Program), effective June 1, 2019. The Liquidity Rule requires an open-end investment company to adopt a program that is reasonably designed to assess and manage its liquidity risk, which is the risk that an open-end fund investment company could not meet redemption requests without significant dilution of remaining investors’ interests in the open-end investment company. The Board has designated Cohen & Steers

39

COHEN & STEERS INTERNATIONAL REALTY FUND, INC.

Capital Management, Inc. (the Investment Advisor) as the administrator of the Program. The Investment Advisor has delegated this responsibility to the Liquidity Risk Management Committee (the LRM Committee), which is comprised of representatives from various departments within the Investment Advisor. The Program includes policies and procedures reasonably designed to: (1) assess, manage, and periodically review the Fund’s liquidity risk; (2) classify the Fund’s portfolio investments as highly liquid, moderately liquid, less liquid, or illiquid; (3) determine a highly liquid investment minimum (HLIM) for the Fund or determine that one is not required; (4) limit the Fund’s illiquid investments to no more than 15% of its net assets; and (5) establish how and when the Fund will engage in in-kind redemptions.

The Board met on June 9, 2020 (the Meeting) to review the Program. At the Meeting, the LRM Committee provided the Board with a report that addressed the operation of the Program, including its implementation and effectiveness in assessing and managing the Fund’s liquidity risk (the Report). The Report covered the period from June 1, 2019 through March 31, 2020 (the Reporting Period).

The Report described the LRM Committee’s role in administering the Program, which complied with the Liquidity Rule requirements for assessing, managing and reviewing the Fund’s liquidity risk through the LRM Committee’s daily monitoring and quarterly analysis of liquidity parameters which include historical net redemption activity and consideration of the Fund’s shareholder ownership concentration, as applicable. The Report noted that the Fund’s investments are categorized into one of four liquidity buckets: highly liquid, moderately liquid, less liquid and illiquid. Liquidity classifications take into account a variety of market, trading, and investment factors, including the Fund’s reasonably anticipated trade size. The Investment Advisor has engaged a third-party vendor to assist with the classification of portfolio investments. The Report also described the LRM Committee’s determination that the Fund is a primarily highly liquid fund under the Liquidity Rule and is not required to set a HLIM.

The Report noted that there were no liquidity events during the Reporting Period that materially impacted the Fund’s ability to timely meet redemptions without significantly diluting remaining shareholders’ interests. The Report concluded that the Program is operating as intended, effective in implementing the requirements of the Liquidity Rule and reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund’s liquidity risk.

There can be no assurance that the Program will achieve its objectives in the future. Please refer to the Fund’s prospectus for more information regarding the Fund’s exposure to liquidity risk and other principal risks to which an investment in the Fund may be subject.
