Portfolio of investments – August 31, 2006 (unaudited)

#   Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) calculates its net asset value based on the current market value, where available, for its portfolio securities. The Fund normally obtains market values for its securities from independent pricing sources and broker-dealers. Independent pricing sources may use reported last sale prices, current market quotations or valuations from computerized “matrix” systems that derive values based on comparable securities. A matrix system incorporates parameters such as security quality, maturity and coupon, and/or research and evaluations by its staff, including review of broker-dealer market price quotations, if available, in determining the valuation of the portfolio securities. Securities traded in the over-the-counter (“OTC”) market and listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. (“NASDAQ”) normally are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Other OTC securities are valued at the last bid price available prior to valuation. Securities which are listed on US and foreign stock exchanges normally are valued at the last sale price on the day the securities are valued or, lacking any sales on such day, at the last available bid price. In cases where securities are traded on more than one exchange, the securities are valued on the exchange designated as the primary market by UBS Global Asset Management (Americas) Inc. (“UBS Global AM”), the investment advisor and administrator of the Fund. UBS Global AM is an indirect wholly owned asset management subsidiary of UBS AG, an internationally diversified organization with headquarters in Zurich and Basel, Switzerland and operations in many areas of the financial services industry. If a market value is not available from an independent pricing source for a particular security, that security is valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Fund’s board of directors (the “Board”).
     
    Various factors may be reviewed in order to make a good faith determination of a security’s fair value. These factors include, but are not limited to, fundamental analytical data relating to the investment; the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition of the securities; and the evaluation of forces which influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold. All investments quoted in foreign currencies will be valued weekly in US Dollars on the basis of the foreign currency exchange rates determined as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE. Occasionally, events affecting the value of the foreign investments and such exchange rates occured between the time at which they are determined and the close of the NYSE, which will not be reflected in the computation of the Fund’s net asset value. If events materially affecting the value of such securities or currency exchange rates occured during such time periods, the securities were valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Board. The amortized cost method of valuation, which approximates market value, generally is used to value short-term debt instruments with sixty days or less remaining to maturity, unless the Board determines that this does not represent fair value.

2) Swap agreements

Total return swaps
Total return swap agreements involve commitments to pay interest in exchange for a market-linked return based on a notional amount. To the extent the total return of the security or index underlying the transaction exceeds or falls short of the offsetting interest rate obligation, the Fund will receive a payment from or make a payment to the counterparty, respectively. Total return swaps are marked-to-market daily, and the change, if any, is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Periodic payments received or made at the end of each measurement period, but prior to termination, are recorded as realized gains or losses.

At August 31, 2006, the Fund had outstanding total return swap contracts with the following terms:

                Payments   Payments          
Notional   Termination   made by the   received by the   Unrealized
amount   dates   Fund   Fund   appreciation
RUB   24,400,000     10/09/07       $917,001 ^     7.58%#       $ 65,088

Currency type abbreviations:
RUB   Russian Ruble

Credit default swaps
Credit default swap agreements involve commitments to pay interest and principal in the event of a default of a security. As a buyer, the Fund makes periodic payments to the counterparty and the Fund would receive payments only in the event of default. Credit default swaps are marked-to-market daily, and the change, if any, is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Periodic payments received or made at the end of each measurement period, but prior to termination, are recorded as realized gains or losses. If no credit event occurs, the Fund will lose its periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract. However, if a credit event occurs, the Fund typically receives full notional value for a reference obligation that may have little or no value. Credit default swaps may involve greater risks than if the Fund had invested in the reference obligation directly. Credit default swaps are subject to general market risk, liquidity risk and credit risk.

At August 31, 2006, the Fund had outstanding credit default swap contracts with the following terms:

                Payments   Payments   Unrealized
Notional   Termination   made by the   received by the   appreciation/
amount   dates   Fund   Fund   (depreciation)

*   Payment from the counterparty will be received upon the occurrence of bankruptcy and/or restructuring event with respect to the Argentine Republic bond 8.28% due 12/31/33

Securities lending
The Fund may lend securities up to 33 1/3% of its total assets to qualified broker-dealers or institutional investors. The loans are secured at all times by cash, cash equivalents or US government securities in an amount at least equal to the market value of the securities loaned, plus accrued interest and dividends, determined on a daily basis and adjusted accordingly. The Fund will regain ownership of loaned securities to exercise certain beneficial rights; however, the Fund may bear the risk of delay in recovery of, or even loss of rights in, the securities loaned should the borrower fail financially. The Fund receives compensation for lending its securities from interest or dividends earned on the cash, cash equivalents or US government securities held as collateral, net of fee rebates paid to the borrower plus reasonable administrative and custody fees. UBS Financial Services, Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of UBS AG, and other affiliated broker-dealers have been approved as borrowers under the Fund’s securities lending program. UBS Securities LLC is the Fund’s lending agent. For the nine months ended August 31, 2006, UBS Securities LLC earned $203 in compensation as the Fund’s lending agent.
