Expense Example

As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments (these charges vary among the share classes); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees (these charges vary among the share classes); and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in each 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, 2009 through June 30, 2009).

Actual Expenses

For each class of each Fund, the first line of the table on the following pages provides information about actual account values and actual 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 titled "Expenses Paid During the Period 1/1/09 – 6/30/09" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

For each class of each Fund, the second line of the table on the following pages 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 costs of investing in each Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Developing Local Markets Fund

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional 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.

1. ORGANIZATION

Lord Abbett Global Fund, Inc. (the "Company") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end management investment company and was incorporated under Maryland law on February 23, 1988. The Company consists of the following two portfolios (the "Funds") and their respective classes: Lord Abbett Developing Local Markets Fund ("Developing Local Markets Fund"), Class A, B, C, F, I, P, R2 and R3 shares; and Lord Abbett Global Allocation Fund ("Global Allocation Fund"), Class A, B, C, F, I, R2 and R3 shares. As of the date of this report, Global Allocation Fund has not issued Class P shares. Global Allocation Fund is diversified as defined under the Act and Developing Local Markets Fund is non-diversified. Developing Local Markets Fund's Class P shares are closed to substantially all new retirement and benefit plans and fee-based programs, with certain exceptions as set forth in the Fund's prospectus.

Developing Local Markets Fund's investment objective is to seek high total return. Global Allocation Fund's investment objective is total return. Global Allocation Fund invests in other mutual funds ("Underlying Funds") managed by Lord, Abbett & Co. LLC ("Lord Abbett").

Each class of shares has different expenses and dividends. A front-end sales charge is normally added to the Net Asset Value ("NAV") for Class A shares. There is no front-end sales charge in the case of Class B, C, F, I, P, R2 and R3 shares, although there may be a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") as follows: Class A shares purchased without a sales charge and redeemed before the first day of the month in which the one-year anniversary of the purchase falls (subject to certain exceptions); Class B shares redeemed before the sixth anniversary of purchase; and Class C shares redeemed before the first anniversary of purchase. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares on the 25th day of the month (or, if the 25th is not a business day, the next business day thereafter) following the eighth anniversary of the day on which the purchase order was accepted.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a)  Investment Valuation–Securities actively traded on any recognized U.S. or non-U.S. exchange or on The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC are valued at the last sale price or official closing price on the exchange or system on which they are principally traded. Events occurring after the close of trading on non-U.S. exchanges may result in adjustments to the valuation of foreign securities to more accurately reflect their fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange LLC ("NYSE"). Each Fund may rely on an independent fair valuation service in adjusting the valuations of foreign securities. Unlisted equity securities are valued at the last quoted sale price or, if no sale price is available, at the mean between the most recently quoted bid and asked prices . Fixed income securities are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices on the basis of prices supplied by independent pricing services, which reflect broker/dealer supplied valuations and electronic

38

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)(continued)

data processing techniques. Exchange-traded options and futures contracts are valued at the last sale price in the market where they are principally traded. If no sale has occurred, the mean between the most recently quoted bid and asked prices is used. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined by management and approved in good faith by the Board of Directors. Investments in the Underlying Funds are valued at their NAV each business day at the close of regular trading on the NYSE, normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. Short-term securities with 60 days or less remaining to maturity are valued using the amortized cost method, which approximates current market value.

(b)  Security Transactions–Security transactions are recorded as of the date that the securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses on sales of portfolio securities are calculated using the identified-cost method. Realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets at the beginning of the day.

(c)  Investment Income–Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized using the effective interest method. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the applicable country's tax rules and rates. Investment income is allocated to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets at the beginning of the day.

(d)  Income Taxes–It is the policy of each Fund to meet the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders. Therefore, no income tax provision is required.

Each Fund files U.S. federal and various state and local tax returns. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The statute of limitations on the Funds' U.S. federal tax returns remains open for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 through December 31, 2008. The statutes of limitations on the Company's state and local tax returns may remain open for an additional year depending upon the jurisdiction.

(e)  Expenses–Expenses incurred by the Company that do not specifically relate to an individual fund are generally allocated to the Funds within the Company on a pro rata basis. Expenses, excluding class-specific expenses, are allocated to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets at the beginning of the day. Class A, B, C, F, P, R2 and R3 shares bear their class-specific share of all expenses and fees relating to the Funds' 12b-1 Distribution Plan.

(f)  Foreign Transactions–The books and records of each Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars and transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded in each Fund's records at the rate prevailing when earned or recorded. Asset and liability accounts that are denominated in foreign currencies are adjusted daily to reflect current exchange rates and any unrealized gain (loss) is included in Net change in unrealized depreciation on investments, futures contracts and translation of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies on each Fund's Statement of Operations. The resultant exchange gains and losses upon settlement of such transactions are included in Net realized loss on investments, futures contracts and foreign currency related transactions on each Fund's S tatement of Operations. Each Fund does not

39

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)(continued)

isolate that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the changes in market prices of the securities.

(g)  Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts–Developing Local Markets Fund may invest substantially in forward foreign currency contracts or other derivatives, such as options, futures contracts, and swap agreements. U.S. fixed income instruments are used to "cover" the Fund's net exposure under forward contracts and other instruments that provide investment exposure to the currencies of developing markets. A forward foreign currency exchange contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated rate. Forward contracts may also be structured for cash settlement rather than physical delivery. The contracts are valued daily at forward exchange rates and any unrealized gain (loss) is included in Net change in unrealized depreciation on investments, futures contracts and translation of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies on the Fund's Statement of Operations. The gain (loss) arising from the difference between the U.S. dollar cost of the original contract and the value of the foreign currency in U.S. dollars upon closing of such contracts is included in Net realized loss on investments, futures contracts and foreign currency related transactions on the Fund's Statement of Operations.

(h)  Futures Contracts–Developing Local Markets Fund may purchase and sell futures contracts for bona fide hedging purposes including hedging against changes in interest rates and securities prices. At the time of entering into a futures transaction, an investor is required to deposit and maintain a specified amount of cash or eligible securities called "initial margin." Subsequent payments called "variation margin" are made on a daily basis as the market price of the futures contract fluctuates. The Fund will record an unrealized gain (loss) based on the amount of variation margin. When a contract is closed, a realized gain (loss) is recorded equal to the difference between the opening and closing value of the contract. Generally, open futures contracts are marked to market for federal income tax purposes at fiscal year-end.

(i)  When-Issued or Forward Transactions–Developing Local Markets Fund may purchase securities on a when-issued or forward basis. When-issued, forward transactions or to-be-announced ("TBA") transactions involve a commitment by the Fund to purchase securities, with payment and delivery ("settlement") to take place in the future, in order to secure what is considered to be an advantageous price or yield at the time of entering into the transaction. During the period between purchase and settlement, the value of the securities will fluctuate and assets consisting of cash and/or marketable securities (normally short-term U.S. Government or U.S. Government sponsored enterprise securities) marked to market daily in an amount sufficient to make payment at settlement will be segregated at the Fund's custodian in order to pay for the commitment. At the time the Fund makes the commitment to purchase a security on a when-issued basis, it will record the transaction and reflect the liability for the purchase and value of the security in determining its net asset value. The Fund, generally, has the ability to close out a purchase obligation on or before the settlement date rather than take delivery of the security. Under no circumstances will settlement for such securities take place more than 120 days after the purchase date.

(j)  Repurchase Agreements–Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with respect to securities. A repurchase agreement is a transaction in which a Fund acquires a security and simultaneously commits to resell that security to the seller (a bank or securities dealer) at an agreed-upon price on an agreed-upon date. Each Fund requires at all times that the repurchase agreement be collateralized by cash, or by securities of the U.S. Government, its

40

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)(continued)

agencies, its instrumentalities, or U.S. Government sponsored enterprises having a value equal to, or in excess of, the value of the repurchase agreement (including accrued interest). If the seller of the agreement defaults on its obligation to repurchase the underlying securities at a time when the value of these securities has declined, the Funds may incur a loss upon disposition of the securities.

(k)  Fair Value Measurements–In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements ("SFAS 157"), fair value is defined as the price that each Fund would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the investment. SFAS 157 established a three-tier hierarchy to maximize the use of observable market data and minimize the use of unobservable inputs 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 – for example, the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value (such as a pricing model) and/or the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Observable inputs are based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are based on the best information available in the circumstances. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed 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, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.); and

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

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

(m)  Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities–Developing Local Markets Fund adopted FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161 "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 161"), effective January 1, 2009.

The Developing Local Markets Fund entered into forward foreign currency exchange contracts during the period ended June 30, 2009 (as described in note 2(g)). A forward foreign currency exchange contract reduces the Fund's exposure to changes in the value of the currency it will deliver (or settle in cash) and increases its exposure to changes in the value of the currency it will receive (or settle in cash) for the duration of the contract. The Developing Local Markets Fund's use of forward foreign currency exchange contracts involves the risk that Lord Abbett will not accurately predict currency movements, and the Fund's returns could be reduced as a result. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are subject to the risk that those currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar, or, in the case of hedged positions, that the U.S. dollar will decline relative to the currency being hedged. Currency rates in foreign countries m ay fluctuate significantly over short periods of time. The Fund's risk of loss from counterparty credit risk is the fair value of the foreign currency exchange contracts.

The Developing Local Markets Fund entered into U.S. Treasury futures contracts during the period ended June 30, 2009 (as described in note 2(h)) to hedge against changes in interest rates. The Developing Local Markets Fund bears the risk of interest rates moving unexpectedly, in which case the Fund may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures contract and realize a loss. There is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Fund since futures were exchange traded and the exchange's clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees futures against default.

4. DISTRIBUTIONS AND CAPITAL LOSS CARRYFORWARDS

Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly for Developing Local Markets Fund and declared and paid quarterly for Global Allocation Fund. Taxable net realized gains from investment transactions, reduced by capital loss carryforwards, if any, are declared and distributed to shareholders at least annually. The capital loss carryforward amount, if any, is available to offset future net capital gains. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains is determined in accordance with

45

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)(continued)

federal income tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. 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 components of net assets based on their federal tax basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Dividends and distributions, which exceed earnings and profits for tax purposes, are reported as a tax return of capital.

The tax character of distributions paid during the six months ended June 30, 2009 and the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 was as follows:

	Developing Local Markets Fund				Global Allocation Fund
	Six Months Ended 6/30/2009 (unaudited)		Year Ended 12/31/2008		Six Months Ended 6/30/2009 (unaudited)		Year Ended 12/31/2008
Distributions paid from:
Ordinary income	$	1,876,232	$	2,234,853	$	1,494,018	$	2,147,126
Return of capital		-		1,735,444		-		-
Net long-term capital gains		-		-		-		1,127,195
Total distributions paid	$	1,876,232	$	3,970,297	$	1,494,018	$	3,274,321

As of December 31, 2008, the capital loss carryforwards, along with the related expiration dates, were as follows:

	2010		2014		2015		2016		Total
Developing Local Markets Fund	$	3,056,190	$	1,173,526	$	1,482,087	$	2,476,358	$	8,188,161
Global Allocation Fund		-		-		-		3,583,054		3,583,054

As of June 30, 2009, the aggregate unrealized security gains and losses based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes were as follows:

	Developing Local Markets Fund			Global Allocation Fund
Tax cost	$	128,546,567		$	99,696,229
Gross unrealized gain		1,222,524			-
Gross unrealized loss		(454,634	)		(20,879,788	)
Net unrealized security gain (loss)	$	767,890		$	(20,879,788	)

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized gains (losses) is attributable to the tax treatment of certain distributions received, wash sales and amortization.

5. PORTFOLIO SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investment securities (excluding short-term investments) for the six months ended June 30, 2009 were as follows:

	U.S. Government Purchases*		Non-U.S. Government Purchases		U.S. Government Sales*		Non-U.S. Government Sales
Developing Local Markets Fund	$	8,362,463	$	44,080,736	$	9,067,839	$	32,767,332
Global Allocation Fund		-		5,198,833		-		4,795,977

* Includes U.S. Government sponsored enterprises securities.

46

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)(continued)

6. DIRECTORS' REMUNERATION

The Company's officers and the two Directors who are associated with Lord Abbett do not receive any compensation from the Company for serving in such capacities. Outside Directors' fees are allocated among all Lord Abbett-sponsored funds based on the net assets of each fund. There is an equity-based plan available to all outside Directors under which outside Directors must defer receipt of a portion of, and may elect to defer receipt of an additional portion of, Directors' fees. The deferred amounts are treated as though equivalent dollar amounts have been invested in the funds. Such amounts and earnings accrued thereon are included in Directors' fees on the Statement of Operations and in Directors' fees payable on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and are not deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes until such amounts are paid.

7. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS

The Company has entered into an arrangement with its transfer agent whereby credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances are used to reduce a portion of each Fund's expenses.

8. LINE OF CREDIT

Global Allocation Fund and certain other funds managed by Lord Abbett have available an unsecured revolving credit facility ("Facility") from State Street Bank and Trust Company ("SSB"), to be used for temporary or emergency purposes as an additional source of liquidity to fund redemptions of investor shares. The Facility is renewed annually under terms that depend on market conditions at the time of the renewal. Accordingly, effective December 5, 2008, the amount available under the Facility was changed from $250,000,000 to $200,000,000 and the annual fee to maintain the Facility (of which each participating Fund pays its pro rata share based on the net assets of each participating fund) was changed from .08% of the amount available under the Facility to .125%. Any borrowings under this Facility will bear interest at current market rates as set forth in the credit agreement. As of June 30, 2009, there were no loans outstanding pursuant to t his Facility nor was the Facility utilized at any time during the six months ended June 30, 2009.

9. CUSTODIAN AND ACCOUNTING AGENT

SSB is the Company's custodian and accounting agent. SSB performs custodial, accounting and recordkeeping functions relating to portfolio transactions and calculating each Fund's NAV.

10. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED ISSUERS

An affiliated issuer is one in which a Fund had ownership of at least 5% of the outstanding voting securities of the underlying issuer at any point during the fiscal year or any company

11. INVESTMENT RISKS

Each Fund is subject to the risks of investing in securities that are issued by non-U.S. entities, the risks of investing in derivatives, liquidity risk, and the risks from leverage.

Foreign securities may pose greater risks than domestic securities, including greater price fluctuations, less government regulation, and higher transaction costs. Foreign investments also may be affected by changes in currency rates or currency controls.

Derivatives are subject to risks such as liquidity risk, leveraging risk, interest rate risk, market risk, and credit risk. Derivatives also involve the risk of mispricing or improper valuation and the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the value of the underlying asset, rate, or index.

48

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)(continued)

Illiquid securities may lower a Fund's returns since the Fund may be unable to sell these securities at its desired time or price.

Leverage, including borrowing, may increase volatility in a Fund by magnifying the effect of changes in the value of the Fund's holdings. The use of leverage may cause investors in a Fund to lose more money in adverse environments than would be the case in the absence of leverage.

The Developing Local Markets Fund is subject to the general risks and considerations associated with investing in debt securities, including interest rate risk. When interest rates rise, the prices of debt securities and an investment in the Developing Local Markets Fund are likely to decline. In times of economic uncertainty, high-yield debt securities (or "junk bonds") may decline in price, even when interest rates are falling. There is also the risk that an issuer of a debt security will fail to make timely payments of principal or interest to the Developing Local Markets Fund, a risk that is greater with junk bonds.

Foreign currency exchange rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time. The Developing Local Markets Fund's use of currency-related transactions involves the risk that Lord Abbett will not accurately predict currency movements, and the Fund's returns could be reduced as a result. A decline in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar will reduce the value of securities held by the Developing Local Markets Fund that are denominated in those currencies.

The securities markets of developing or emerging countries tend to be less liquid, are especially subject to greater price volatility, have a smaller market capitalization, have less government regulation and may not be subject to as extensive and frequent accounting, financial, and other reporting requirements as securities issued in more developed countries.

The Developing Local Markets Fund believes that its investment strategies with respect to foreign currencies will generate qualifying income under current U.S. federal income tax law. However, there can be no assurance that the U.S. Treasury Department will not issue regulations in the future (possibly with retroactive effect) that would treat some or all of the Fund's foreign currency gains as nonqualifying income.

The value of the Global Allocation Fund's investments will fluctuate in response to various factors related to domestic and foreign equity and fixed income markets, as well as the financial condition and prospects of issuers in which the Fund invests through its Underlying Funds. Because equity and fixed income investments can move in different directions or to different degrees, fixed income investments may counteract some of the volatility experienced by equity holdings, but the diminished risk that may accompany this investment approach also may result in lower returns.

These factors can affect each Fund's performance.
