        An Open Letter to Donald R. and Kathleen B. Logan

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Logan:

     One of our Directors has just sent us a copy of your letter dated May 14,
1997 to the outside Directors of Clemente Global Growth Fund, Inc. (the
"Fund").  We respect and indeed even encourage a healthy expression of views
by our shareholders.  However, we take strenuous exception to your copying the
individuals, advisory firms and media outlets that you have.  Such a tactic
strikes us as blatantly intimidating and destructive to the kind of civil
dialogue we seek to maintain with our shareholders.  As you have seen fit to
share your letter with that list, we will do the same with this letter.  

     The most critical fact entirely ignored in your letter is that the recent
steps the Fund has taken to improve performance appear to be working
beautifully.  The Fund's 1997 performance through May 21 has been nothing
short of superb, with NAV up an estimated 12.4% year-to-date, compared with an
estimated rise of 9.4% for the FT Actuaries World Index, the Fund's benchmark. 
Even before Wilmington Trust has been formally installed as the Fund's U.S.
Adviser, input from Wilmington and Clemente Capital's own restructuring
efforts have produced a much stronger portfolio with a group of top drawer new
additions.  We are extremely excited about maintaining our 1997 leadership
position among all closed-end equity funds in charting a new course for the
Fund.  The recent impressive recovery of the Fund, together with the addition
of Wilmington Trust, shows every sign of restoring the Fund to its
rightful place as a premier closed-end equity fund.  No shareholder could wish
otherwise.  

     Above all, the negativism that permeates your letter shouldn't obscure
the good news that is so abundant now.  The Fund has a new portfolio manager,
Tom Prapas, who brings years of experience and a disciplined energy to
non-U.S. stock selection and country allocation decisions.  Wilmington Trust,
our new partner, is a major asset manager with a total of approximately $100
billion in assets under trust, custody and investment management, ranking as
the eighth largest personal trust company in the United States.  Wilmington
adds significant expertise in U.S. equities and infrastructure improvements,
which will enhance our collection, analysis, and presentation of fundamental
data on markets, sectors, and companies around the world.  The best investment
disciplines of both firms will be combined to strengthen the investment
process, and create, in my opinion, a very bright future for the Fund.


     Supported by an attractive equity market environment, and assisted by our
partnership with Wilmington Trust in the management of the portfolio, we look
forward to consistent competitive returns for the portfolio.  We hope you join
us in welcoming this return to superior performance.



     Sincerely yours,







     Lilia C. Clemente
     Chairman
