Dear shareholder,
We present you with the annual report for Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) for the 12 months ended November 30, 2008.

Performance
Over the 12 months ended November 30, 2008, the Fund declined 10.52% on a net asset value basis, compared with the median net asset value decline of 22.81% for the Fund’s peer group, the Lipper Global Income Funds, and the decline of 3.70% for the Fund’s benchmark, the Strategic Global Benchmark⁽¹⁾ (the “Benchmark”). On a market price basis, the Fund declined 20.13% over the 12-month period, compared with its Lipper peer group’s median market price decline of 27.49% over the same time period. (For more on performance, please refer to “Performance at a glance” on page 7.)

The Fund’s exposure to local markets benefited performance during the period. However, this was more than offset by an overweight to Argentine debt, where political unrest weighed significantly on performance. In addition, an overweight position in Russian debt, which performed poorly following a drop in commodity prices, hurt Fund performance during the reporting period.

The Fund did not use leverage, which helped it to outperform many of its peers during the reporting period. The Fund did not have preferred stock outstanding, or borrow from banks for investment purposes as some of its peers may have done. Leverage magnifies returns on both the upside and on the downside, and creates a wider range of returns within the Fund’s peer group.

Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

The Fund traded at a discount to its net asset value (“NAV”) per share during the entire reporting period, as did many of its peers. We believe this was due, in part, to investors’ aversion to risk, given the escalating issues and uncertainty surrounding the financial markets and the global economy.

A fund trades at a premium when the market price at which its shares trade is more than its NAV. Alternatively, a fund trades at a discount when the market price at which its shares trade is less than its NAV. The market price is the price the market is willing to pay for shares of a fund at a given time, and may be influenced by a range of factors, including supply and demand and market conditions. NAV per share is determined by dividing the value of the Fund’s securities, cash and other assets, less all liabilities, by the total number of common shares outstanding.

An interview with Portfolio Manager Uwe Schillhorn
Q.	How would you describe the global economic environment during the reporting period?
A.	In the US and abroad, economic growth weakened during the 12-month reporting period. In the US, gross domestic product (“GDP”) grew a surprising 0.9% during the first quarter of 2008. The US Commerce Department then reported that second quarter 2008 GDP growth accelerated to 2.8%. This relatively strong showing was due in part to rising exports and the declining dollar, making US goods more attractive overseas. Economic growth then significantly weakened in the third quarter of 2008. Given a sharp decline in personal spending, intensification of the credit crunch and ongoing housing market weakness, third quarter GDP growth was -0.5%.
	After the reporting period ended, the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) proclaimed that a recession began back in December 2007. The NBER defines a recession as being “a significant decline in economic activity, lasting more than a few months, normally visible in production, employment, real income and other indicators.”
	Overseas, the Eurozone and Japan, having both experienced two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth, are said to have entered a recession. This marks the first recession in the Eurozone since the advent of the euro currency in 1999. The ongoing credit crunch, tepid consumer spending and rising unemployment have negatively impacted the region. Japan’s economy has been adversely affected by weakening export trade, triggered by the slowdown in overseas economies and the appreciation of the yen.

	Throughout the reporting period, emerging markets countries generally posted superior growth rates versus their developed country counterparts. However, the prospect for slowing export growth and sharply falling commodity prices in the second half of the reporting period has cast a shadow over their economic prospects.
Q.	How did the world’s bond markets perform over the reporting period?
A.	While the US bond market as a whole rose during the reporting period, this was largely driven by the rising price of Treasury securities. During the reporting period, investor risk aversion increased due to the ongoing credit crisis and turmoil in the financial markets. This resulted in several “flights to quality,” causing Treasury yields to move lower (and their prices higher). In contrast, riskier sectors in the US fixed income market performed poorly. Toward the end of the period, the yield available from short-term Treasuries fell to zero, as investors were willing to forgo any income in order to invest in government-backed securities.
	The US Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) reduced short term interest rates on seven occasions during the reporting period, bringing them from 4.50% to 1.00%. In December 2008, after the reporting period ended, the Fed cut rates again to a range of zero to 0.25%. Central banks in other countries reduced interest rates as well and indicated that further cuts may be necessary given sharply weaker economic conditions.
	During approximately the first nine months of the reporting period, the emerging markets debt asset class performed relatively well versus non-US Treasury fixed income securities. During this time, emerging markets debt spreads—the difference between the yields paid on US Treasury bonds and emerging markets debt—widened. However, they did so less than other spread (non-Treasury) sectors. Commodity-rich emerging markets debt countries enjoyed good economic conditions during this time as demand remained solid and commodity prices remained high.
	However, emerging markets debt’s relative outperformance was more than erased in September and October 2008. Fallout from financial troubles in the US and elsewhere, frozen credit markets, massive deleveraging and forced selling, coupled with recession expectations and plunging commodity prices, triggered a sharp increase in risk aversion. As a result, emerging markets debt prices fell sharply in September and October 2008.

Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

Q.	How did you position the portfolio from a duration standpoint?
A.	We kept the Fund’s duration—which measures its sensitivity to interest rate change—lower than that of its benchmark throughout most of the reporting period. While this positioning was beneficial during much of this time, it detracted from performance toward the end of the period when interest rates fell sharply given the flight to quality.
Q.	Which currency strategies did you use during the period?
A.	We reduced the Fund’s longstanding position in “carry trades” and pared down its exposure to higher-yielding domestic markets. In a carry trade strategy, an investor sells a currency with a lower interest rate, and uses those funds to purchase a different currency yielding a higher interest rate.
	The Fund continued to have an overweight position in “local markets”— markets in which debt is denominated in local currency rather than in US dollars—as they generally offered higher yields than US dollar-denominated bonds. However, we pared down the Fund’s overweight position toward the end of the reporting period as the overall bond market sold off and local currencies were adversely affected. This was especially true in September and October 2008, when the US dollar appreciated during the flight to quality. Reducing our local market exposure also served to bring down the Fund’s risk exposure, benefiting performance.
Q.	Which holdings or strategies generated strong results over the period?
A.	Overall, the Fund’s local market exposure benefited performance, especially during the first half of the reporting period. During that time, holdings in the Malaysian ringgit, Turkish lira and Russian ruble enhanced the Fund’s performance, as did an exposure to the euro.
Q.	Were there any particular strategies that didn’t work well for the Fund?
A.	The Fund’s overweight position in Argentina detracted from performance during the 12-month reporting period. The government’s inability to successfully negotiate with striking farmers negatively impacted the country’s export revenues. In a worst-case scenario that we did not believe was likely to unfold, continued political unrest, economic concerns and increased risk aversion dragged down both Argentina’s US dollar-denominated and local currency debt. Given these issues, we believe that Argentina’s debt is now trading at levels that suggest an increased likelihood of default and reduced the Fund’s position

	accordingly. We continued to reduce the Fund’s position in Argentina after the reporting period had ended.
	While the Fund’s exposure to the Russian ruble contributed to performance during the first half of the reporting period, it later detracted from results. While initially supported by record high oil prices, Russia’s financial system became strained as oil prices fell due to slower global economic growth. As we increased the Fund’s exposure to Russia via quasi-sovereign bonds, the spreads of non-sovereign debt widened significantly, indicating increased levels of investor risk aversion. Despite the deteriorating financial situation of non-sovereign issuers, we do not believe that Russia is in jeopardy of default given the country’s financial surplus versus its outstanding debt.
Q.	How was the Fund positioned at the end of the reporting period?
A.	Throughout the reporting period, we focused our investments in local markets in countries with balance surpluses, as opposed to countries with deficits. During the period as a whole, the Fund was conservatively positioned with regard to its risk exposure. However, given the extreme market sell-off in September and October, we took advantage of what we viewed to be attractive prices, selectively adding certain asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities to the Fund’s portfolio. To take advantage of attractive market opportunities and to diversify the Fund, we also purchased collateralized loan obligations (CLOs) and collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) during the reporting period.
Q.	What is your outlook on the global economy and fixed income markets?
A.	In our view, a decoupling of emerging and developed markets economies is highly unlikely. Rapidly weakening economies in the US, Europe, Japan and other developed countries are clearly having a negative impact on emerging markets countries. For example, slower growth in developed countries has driven oil and other commodity prices substantially lower. This, in turn, has hurt emerging markets commodity exporters, negatively impacting their current account surpluses. We also expect to see continued volatility in the emerging markets debt asset class, given further deleveraging, investor risk aversion and uncertainties regarding the length and depth of the global economic recession.
	On the upside, commodity prices have fallen to levels not seen since 2005. We believe much of the negative economic news is already priced into commodity valuations and that another significant sell-off in commodity prices seems unlikely. In addition, given several years of

Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

current account surpluses and improved domestic spending, we believe that emerging markets countries, overall, could be better positioned to withstand the current economic environment than they were during previous recessionary periods.

We continue to favor local markets versus US dollar-denominated investments. With inflation expectations diminished by the decline in commodity prices, we believe central banks will have greater flexibility in terms of lowering interest rates. We have already seen this take place and expect this trend to continue given the global recession.

We thank you for your continued support, and welcome any comments or questions you may have. For additional information on the UBS family of funds, please contact your financial advisor or visit us at www.ubs.com/globalam-us.

IO	Interest only—This security entitles the holder to receive interest payments from an underlying pool of mortgages. The risk associated with this security is related to the speed of the principal paydowns. High prepayments would result in a smaller amount of interest being received and cause the yield to decrease. Low prepayments would result in a greater amount of interest being received and cause the yield to increase.
OJSC	Open Joint Stock Company
REMIC	Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit
TIPS	Treasury inflation protected securities (“TIPS”) are debt securities issued by the US Treasury whose principal and/or interest payments are adjusted for inflation, unlike debt securities that make fixed principal and interest payments. The interest rate paid by the TIPS is fixed, while the principal value rises or falls based on changes in a published Consumer Price Index (“CPI”). Thus, if inflation occurs, the principal and interest payments on the TIPS are adjusted accordingly to protect investors from inflationary loss. During a deflationary period, the principal and interest payments decrease, although the TIPS principal amounts will not drop below their face amounts at maturity. In exchange for the inflation protection, the TIPS generally pay lower interest rates than typical US Treasury securities. Only if inflation occurs will TIPS offer a higher real yield than a conventional Treasury security of the same maturity.

Total net asset value return does not reflect brokerage commissions or the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund dividends/distributions or a sale of Fund shares. Total return based on net asset value is hypothetical as investors cannot purchase or sell Fund shares at the net asset value but only at market prices.
(2)	Total market price return is calculated assuming a purchase of $10,000 of common stock at the current market price on the first day of each year reported and a sale at the current market price on the last day of each year reported, and assuming reinvestment of dividends and other distributions at prices obtained under the Fund’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan. Total market price return does not reflect brokerage commissions or the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund dividends/distributions or a sale of Fund shares.

Organization and significant accounting policies
Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) was incorporated in Maryland on November 15, 1991 and is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a closed-end, non-diversified management investment company. The Fund’s shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). The Fund’s primary investment objective is to achieve a high level of current income. As a secondary objective, the Fund seeks capital appreciation, to the extent consistent with its primary objective.

In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations that provide general indemnification for certain liabilities. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, the Fund has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles requires Fund management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies:

Valuation of investments—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 on the valuation date 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

33

Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

Notes to financial statements—November 30, 2008

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 of the Fund. 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, the type and cost of the security; contractual or legal restrictions on resale of the security; relevant financial or business developments of the issuer; actively traded similar or related securities; conversion or exchange rights on the security; related corporate actions; and changes in overall market conditions. Foreign currency exchange rates are generally determined as of the close of the NYSE. Occasionally, events affecting the value of foreign investments occur 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 occur during such time periods, the securities will be 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. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at the daily closing net asset value of the respective investment company as provided by such other entity. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated daily into US dollars using foreign currency exchange rates determined as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange.

The Fund adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair value measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 requires disclosure surrounding the various inputs that are used in determining the value of the Fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized into the three broad levels listed below.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs, including but not limited to, quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit risk.
Level 3—Unobservable inputs inclusive of the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the value of investments.

In September 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 133-1 and FIN 45-4, “Disclosures about Credit Derivatives and Certain Guarantees: An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 and FASB Interpretation No. 45” (the “FSP”). The FSP amends FASB Statement No. 133 (“FAS 133”), “Accounting for Derivative

35

Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

Notes to financial statements—November 30, 2008

Instruments and Hedging Activities”, and also amends FASB Interpretation No. 45 (“FIN 45”), “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others”. The amendments to FAS 133 include required disclosure for (i) the nature and terms of the credit derivative, reasons for entering into the credit derivative, the events or circumstances that would require the seller to perform under the credit derivative, and the current status of the payment/performance risk of the credit derivative, (ii) the maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) the seller could be required to make under the credit derivative, (iii) the fair value of the credit derivative, and (iv) the nature of any recourse provisions and assets held either as collateral or by third parties. The amendments to FIN 45 require additional disclosures about the current status of the payment/performance risk of a guarantee. All changes to accounting policies have been made in accordance with the FSP and incorporated for the current period as part of the Notes to the portfolio of investments and disclosures within the footnote, “Swap agreements”.

In March 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“FAS 161”). This standard requires enhanced disclosures about the Fund’s derivative and hedging activities. FAS 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of FAS 161 will have on the Fund’s financial statement disclosures.

Investment transactions and investment income—Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses from investment and foreign exchange transactions are calculated using the identified cost method. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized as adjustments to interest income and the identified cost of investments.

Foreign currency translation—The Fund uses the foreign currency exchange rates determined as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE. For purposes of calculating the US dollar equivalent value of a non-US dollar denominated obligation, foreign currency amounts are translated into US dollars on the following basis: (1) market value of investment securities and other assets and liabilities—at the exchange rates prevailing at the close of each business day; and (2) purchases and sales of investment

36

Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

Notes to financial statements—November 30, 2008

securities and income and expenses—at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.

Although the net assets and the market value of the Fund’s portfolio are presented at the foreign exchange rates at the end of the Fund’s fiscal period, the Fund does not generally isolate the effect of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates from the effect of the changes in market prices of securities. However, the Fund does isolate the effect of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates when determining the gain or loss upon the sale or maturity of foreign currency-denominated securities pursuant to US federal income tax regulations. Certain foreign exchange gains and losses included in realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in or are a reduction of ordinary income in accordance with US federal income tax regulations.

Forward foreign currency contracts—The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts (“forward contracts”) in connection with planned purchases or sales of securities or to hedge the US dollar value of portfolio securities denominated in a particular currency. The Fund may also use forward contracts in an attempt to enhance income.

The Fund has no specific limitation on the percentage of assets which may be committed to such contracts. The Fund may enter into forward contracts or maintain a net exposure to forward contracts only if (1) the consummation of the contracts would not obligate the Fund to deliver an amount of foreign currency in excess of the value of the position being hedged by such contracts or (2) the Fund identifies cash or liquid securities in an amount not less than the value of its assets committed to the consummation of the forward contracts and not covered as provided in (1) above, as marked-to-market daily.

Risks may arise upon entering into forward contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their forward contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of foreign currencies relative to the US dollar.

Fluctuations in the value of forward contracts are recorded for book purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the Fund. Realized gains and losses include net gains and losses recognized by the Fund on contracts which have been sold or matured.

37

Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

Notes to financial statements—November 30, 2008

Futures contracts—The Fund may use financial futures contracts for hedging purposes and to adjust exposure to US and foreign fixed income markets in connection with a reallocation of the Fund’s assets or to manage the average duration of the Fund. However, imperfect correlations between futures contracts and the related securities or markets, or market disruptions, do not normally permit full control of these risks at all times. Using financial futures contracts involves various market risks. The maximum amount at risk from the purchase of a futures contract is the contract value.

Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Fund is required to deliver to a broker an amount of cash and/or liquid securities equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount. This amount is known as the “initial margin”. Subsequent payments, known as “variation margin”, are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying financial futures contracts. Such variation margin is recorded for financial statement purposes on a daily basis as an unrealized gain or loss on futures until the financial futures contract is closed or expires, at which time the net gain or loss is reclassified to realized gain or loss on futures.

The Statement of operations reflects net realized and net unrealized gains and losses on these contracts.

Swap agreements—The Fund may engage in swap agreements, including but not limited to interest rate, currency, credit default and total return swap agreements. The Fund expects to enter into these transactions to preserve a return or spread on a particular investment or portion of the portfolio’s duration, to protect against any increase in the price of securities the Fund anticipates purchasing at a later date, or to gain exposure to certain markets in the most economical way possible.

The Fund may enter into interest rate swap agreements with another party to receive or pay interest (e.g., an exchange of fixed rate payments for floating rate payments) to protect itself from interest rate fluctuations. This type of swap is an agreement that obligates two parties to exchange a series of cash flows at specified intervals based upon or calculated by reference to a specified interest rate(s) for a specified amount. The payment flows are usually netted against each other, with the difference being paid by one party to the other.

Notes to financial statements—November 30, 2008

Credit default swap agreements involve commitments to make or receive payments in the event of a default or a credit event of a referenced security. As a buyer, the Fund would make periodic payments to the counterparty, and the Fund would receive payments only upon the occurrence of a credit event. 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 does occur, the Fund typically would receive full notional value for a reference obligation that may have little or no value. As a seller, the Fund would receive periodic payments from the counterparty, and the Fund would make payments only upon the occurrence of a credit event. If no credit event occurs, the Fund will gain the periodic stream of payments it received over the term of the contract. However, if a credit event occurs, the Fund will pay 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 and are subject to general market risk, liquidity risk, counterparty risk and credit risk.

Credit default swap agreements on corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default or other credit event. If a credit event occurs and cash settlement is not elected, a variety of other deliverable obligations may be delivered in lieu of the specific referenced obligation. The ability to deliver other obligations may result in a cheapest-to-deliver option (the buyer of protection’s right to choose the deliverable obligation with the lowest value following a credit event). The Fund may use credit default swaps on corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Fund owns or has exposure to the referenced obligation) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default.

Total return swap agreements involve commitments to pay or receive 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.

39

Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

Notes to financial statements—November 30, 2008

The use of swaps involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio security transactions. If UBS Global AM is incorrect in its forecast of market values, interest rates and other applicable factors, the investment performance of the Fund will be less favorable than it would have been if this investment technique was never used. Swaps do not involve the delivery of securities and are subject to counterparty risk. If the other party to a swap defaults and fails to consummate the transaction, the Fund’s risk of loss will consist of the net amount of interest or other payments that the Fund is contractually entitled to receive. Therefore, the Fund would consider the creditworthiness of the counterparty to a swap agreement in evaluating potential credit risk.

The Fund accrues for interim payments on swap agreements on a daily basis, with the net amount recorded within unrealized appreciation/depreciation of swap agreements on the Statement of assets and liabilities. Once interim payments are settled in cash, the net amount is recorded as realized gain/loss on swap agreements, in addition to realized gain/loss recorded upon the termination of swap agreements on the Statement of operations. Fluctuations in the value of swap agreements are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized appreciation or depreciation of swap agreements.

The maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) that the Fund as a seller of protection could be required to make under a credit default swap agreement would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement. Notional amounts of all credit default swap agreements outstanding as of November 30, 2008 for which the Fund is the seller of protection are disclosed on page 43 in the footnotes to financial statements. These potential amounts would be partially offset by any recovery values of the respective referenced obligations, upfront payments received upon entering into the agreement, or net amounts received from the settlement of buy protection credit default swap agreements entered into, if any, by the Fund for the same referenced entity or entities.

At November 30, 2008, the Fund had outstanding a credit default swap contract with the following terms:

Credit default swap on corporate and sovereign issues—sell protection

(1)	The notional amount represents the maximum potential payment the Fund could be required to make, as a credit protection seller, if a credit event, as defined by the terms of this particular agreement, occurs.
(2)	Credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the market value as of period end serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. The credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. Wider credit spreads represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood of risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement. A credit spread identified as “Defaulted” indicates a credit event has occurred for the referenced entity.
(3)	Payment to the counterparty will be made upon the occurrence of bankruptcy and/or restructuring event with respect to the Development Bank of Kazakhstan 7.375% bond, due 11/12/13.
(4)	Payments received are based on the notional amount.

Currency type abbreviation:

USD United States Dollar

Credit linked notes—The Fund may invest in structured notes whose values are based on the price movements of a referenced security or index. The value of these structured notes will rise and fall in response to changes in the referenced security or index. On the maturity date of each

42

Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

Notes to financial statements—November 30, 2008

structured note, the Fund will receive a payment from a counterparty based on the value of the referenced security (notional amount multiplied by price of the referenced security) and record a realized gain or loss.

Structured notes may present a greater degree of market risk than many types of securities and may be more volatile and less liquid than less complex securities. Structured notes are also subject to the risks that the issuer of the structured notes may fail to perform its contractual obligations.

Options writing—The Fund may write (sell) put and call options on foreign or US securities indices in order to gain exposure to or protect against changes in the markets. When the Fund writes a call or a put option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is included in the Fund’s Statement of assets and liabilities as an asset and as an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option written. If an option which the Fund has written either expires on its stipulated expiration date or the Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction, the Fund realizes a gain (or loss if the cost of a closing purchase transaction exceeds the premium received when the option was written) without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying security or derivative instrument, and the liability related to such option is extinguished. If a call option which the Fund has written is exercised, the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss (long-term or short-term, depending on the holding period of the underlying security) from the sale of the underlying security or derivative instrument and the proceeds from the sale are increased by the premium originally received. If a put option which the Fund has written is exercised, the amount of the premium originally received reduces the cost of the security or derivative instrument which the Fund purchases upon exercise of the option.

In writing an option, the Fund bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the derivative instrument, security or currency underlying the written option. Exercise of an option written by the Fund could result in the Fund selling or buying a derivative instrument, security or currency at a price different from current market value.

Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

Notes to financial statements—November 30, 2008

Written option activity for the year ended November 30, 2008 for the Fund was as follows:

			Amount of
	Number of		premiums

Options expired prior to exercise	(1,052	)	(317,620	)
Options outstanding at November 30, 2008	365		$141,698

Purchased options—The Fund may purchase put and call options on foreign or US securities and indices as well as exchange-listed call options on particular market segment indices to achieve temporary exposure to a specific security, industry or geographic region. Purchasing call options tends to increase exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease exposure to the underlying instrument. The Fund pays a premium which is included in the Statement of assets and liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying futures, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.

Dividends and distributions—Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains and/or return of capital is determined in accordance with US federal income tax regulations, which may differ from US generally accepted accounting principles. These “book/tax” differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification.

Concentration of risk
Investing in securities of foreign issuers and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with

44

Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

Notes to financial statements—November 30, 2008

investments in the United States. These risks include revaluation of currencies, adverse fluctuations in foreign currency values and possible adverse political, social and economic developments, including those particular to a specific industry, country or region, which could cause the securities and their markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable US companies and US government securities. These risks are greater with respect to securities of issuers located in emerging market countries in which the Fund invests. The ability of the issuers of debt securities held by the Fund to meet their obligations may be affected by economic and political developments particular to a specific industry, country, state or region.

Investment advisor and administrator
The Fund’s Board has approved an investment advisory and administration contract (“Advisory Contract”) with UBS Global AM. In accordance with the Advisory Contract, the Fund pays UBS Global AM an investment advisory and administration fee, which is accrued weekly and paid monthly, at the annual rate of 1.00% of the Fund’s average weekly net assets. At November 30, 2008, the Fund owed UBS Global AM $144,653 in investment advisory and administration fees.

Additional information regarding compensation to affiliate of a board member
Effective March 1, 2005, Professor Meyer Feldberg accepted the position of senior advisor to Morgan Stanley, resulting in him becoming an interested director of the Fund. The Fund has been informed that Professor Feldberg’s role at Morgan Stanley does not involve matters directly affecting any UBS funds. Fund transactions are executed through Morgan Stanley based on that firm’s ability to provide best execution of the transactions. During the year ended November 30, 2008, the Fund purchased and sold certain securities (e.g., fixed income securities) in principal trades with Morgan Stanley having an aggregate value of $16,213,301. Morgan Stanley received compensation in connection with these trades, which may have been in the form of a “mark-up” or “mark-down” of the price of the securities, a fee from the issuer for maintaining a commercial paper program, or some other form of compensation. Although the precise amount of this compensation is not generally known by UBS Global AM, UBS Global AM believes that under normal circumstances it represents a small portion of the total value of the transactions.

Securities lending
The Fund may lend securities up to 33¹/₃% 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. and other affiliated broker-dealers had been approved as borrowers under the Fund’s securities lending program. UBS Securities LLC was the lending agent. For the year ended November 30, 2008, UBS Securities LLC earned $189 in compensation as the Fund’s lending agent. At November 30, 2008, the Fund did not owe UBS Securities LLC compensation as the Fund’s lending agent. At November 30, 2008, there were no securities on loan and no related collateral outstanding. In November 2008, UBS Securities LLC exited the securities lending business.

Capital stock
There are 100,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock authorized and 18,258,828 shares outstanding at November 30, 2008. For the years ended November 30, 2008 and November 30, 2007, there were no transactions involving common stock.

Purchases and sales of securities
For the year ended November 30, 2008, aggregate purchases and sales of portfolio securities, excluding short-term securities, were $167,183,720 and $166,428,071, respectively.

Federal tax status
It is the Fund’s policy to comply with all requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. In addition, by distributing during each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, net realized capital gains and certain other amounts, if any,

46

Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

Notes to financial statements—November 30, 2008

the Fund intends not to be subject to a federal excise tax. Accordingly, no federal income tax provision was required.

The tax character of distributions paid during the fiscal year ended November 30, 2008 was as follows:

Distributions paid from:	2008	2007
Ordinary income	$15,766,753	$12,824,898
Net long-term capital gains	2,039,256	4,075,473
	$17,806,009	$16,900,371

At November 30, 2008, the components of accumulated earnings (deficit) on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income	$2,161,652
Accumulated capital and other losses	(2,815,708	)
Net unrealized depreciation	(34,976,795	)
Total accumulated deficit	$(35,630,851	)

For federal income tax purposes, the tax cost of investments and the components of net unrealized depreciation of investments at November 30, 2008 were as follows:

Tax cost of investments	$201,643,005
Gross unrealized appreciation	5,939,844
Gross unrealized depreciation	(40,563,390	)
Net unrealized depreciation of investments	$(34,623,546	)

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis net unrealized depreciation of investments is attributable to premium amortization adjustments and options marked to market.

To reflect reclassifications arising from permanent “book/tax” differences for the year ended November 30, 2008, the Fund’s accumulated undistributed net investment income was increased by $8,812,790, accumulated net realized loss from investment activities was increased by $8,812,779 and capital stock was decreased by $11. These differences are primarily due to the tax treatment of foreign currency transactions, paydown gains and losses, reclassification of distributions for tax purposes, adjustments for certain debt obligations and the tax treatment of swap contracts.

Notes to financial statements—November 30, 2008

At November 30, 2008, the Fund had a net capital loss carryover of $2,650,085 for federal income tax purposes available to offset future capital gains through November 30, 2016.

The Fund adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”. The implementation of FIN 48 resulted in no material liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits and no material changes to the beginning net asset value of the Fund.

As of and during the year ended November 30, 2008, the Fund did not have any liabilities for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of operations. During the period, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties.

Each of the tax years in the four year period ended November 30, 2008 remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and the state taxing authorities. The adoption of FIN 48 had no impact on the operations of the Fund for the year ended November 30, 2008.

Report of Ernst & Young LLP, independent registered public accounting firm

The Board of Directors and Shareholders Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”), including the portfolio of investments, as of November 30, 2008, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of November 30, 2008, by correspondence with the custodian and others or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from others were not received. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc. at November 30, 2008, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with US generally accepted accounting principles.

Tax information (unaudited)

Dividends received by tax-exempt recipients (e.g., IRAs and Keoghs) need not be reported as taxable income. Some retirement trusts (e.g., corporate, Keogh and 403(b)(7) plans) may need this information for their annual reporting. Since the Fund’s fiscal year is not the calendar year, another notification will be sent in respect of calendar year 2008. The second notification, which will reflect the amount to be used by calendar year taxpayers on their federal income tax returns, will be made in conjunction with Form 1099 DIV and will be mailed in January 2009. Shareholders are advised to consult their own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences of their investment in the Fund.

The foreign taxes paid represent taxes incurred by the Fund on income received by the Fund from foreign sources. Foreign taxes paid may be included in taxable income with an offsetting deduction from gross income or may be taken as a credit for taxes paid to foreign governments. You should consult your tax advisor regarding the appropriate treatment of foreign taxes paid.

Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

General information (unaudited)

The Fund
Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company whose shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). The Fund’s primary investment objective is to achieve a high level of current income. As a secondary objective, the Fund seeks capital appreciation, to the extent consistent with its primary objective. There can be no assurance that the Fund’s investment objective will be achieved. The Fund’s investment advisor and administrator is UBS Global Asset Management (Americas) Inc. (“UBS Global AM”).

Shareholder information
The Fund’s NYSE trading symbol is “SGL.” Comparative net asset value and market price information about the Fund is published weekly in various publications.

Update regarding the Fund’s investments—investments in certain structured products and certain attendant risks
The Fund may invest in a wide range of securities, including mortgage- and asset-backed securities. Information regarding such securities was included in the Fund’s original prospectus. Since that time, markets have continued to change, and the Fund may invest to a greater extent in certain types of securities then it has in the past.

As a result of current market opportunities, the Fund may invest significantly in mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. The Fund may invest in asset-backed securities that are categorized as collateralized debt obligations (“CDOs”). CDOs include collateralized bond obligations (“CBOs”), collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) and other similarly structured securities. A CBO is a trust that is backed by a diversified pool of high risk, below investment grade fixed income securities. A CLO is a trust typically collateralized by a pool of loans, which may include, among others, domestic and foreign senior secured loans, senior unsecured loans, and subordinate corporate loans, including loans that may be rated below investment grade or equivalent unrated loans. CDOs may charge management fees and administrative expenses.

For CBOs and CLOs, the cash flows from the trust are split into two or more portions, called tranches, varying in risk and yield. The riskiest portion is the “equity” tranche which bears the bulk of defaults from the bonds or loans in the trust and serves to protect the other, more senior tranches

51

Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

General information (unaudited)

from default in all but the most severe circumstances. Since it is partially protected from defaults, a senior tranche from a CLO trust typically has higher ratings and lower yields than its underlying securities, and can be rated investment grade. Despite the protection from the equity tranche, CLO tranches can experience substantial losses due to actual defaults, increased sensitivity to defaults due to collateral default and disappearance of protecting tranches, market anticipation of defaults, as well as aversion to CLO securities as a class.

The risks of an investment in a CDO depend largely on the type of the collateral securities and the class of the CDO in which the Fund invests. Normally, CLOs and other CDOs are privately offered and sold, and thus, are not registered under the securities laws. As a result, investments in CDOs may be characterized by the Fund as illiquid securities, however an active dealer market may exist for CDOs allowing a CDO to qualify under the Rule 144A “safe harbor” from the registration requirements of the Securities Act for resales of certain securities to qualified institutional buyers. In addition to the normal risks associated with fixed income securities (e.g., interest rate risk, prepayment risk and default risk), CDOs carry additional risks including, but are not limited to, the risk that: (i) distributions from collateral securities may not be adequate to make interest or other payments; (ii) the quality of the collateral may decline in value or default; (iii) the Fund may invest in CDOs that are subordinate to other classes; and (iv) the complex structure of the security may not be fully understood at the time of investment and may produce disputes with the issuer or unexpected investment results.

The Fund’s manager will weigh the potential benefits of an investment against perceived risks in determining whether to invest in such securities. The Fund’s manager believes that the Fund’s closed-end structure might make it particularly appropriate to take advantage of market opportunities to purchase such securities from other investors, such as those who are effectively forced to sell such securities at attractive prices in order to meet redemption requests from their own investors.

As noted in its prospectus, the Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in mortgage-backed securities; the Fund has not adopted a similar policy limiting the amount of its investments in asset-backed securities. Such investments would be made in light of the Fund’s overall primary investment goal to achieve a high level of current income, with capital appreciation a secondary objective in the selection of investments.

Quarterly Form N-Q portfolio schedule
The Fund will file its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The Fund’s Forms N-Q are available on the SEC’s Web site at http://www.sec.gov. The Fund’s Forms N-Q may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. Information on the operation of the SEC’s Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC 0330. Additionally, you may obtain copies of Forms N-Q from the Fund upon request by calling 1-800-647 1568.

Proxy voting policies, procedures and record
You may obtain a description of the Fund’s (1) proxy voting policies, (2) proxy voting procedures and (3) information regarding how the Fund voted any proxies related to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30 for which an SEC filing has been made, without charge, upon request by contacting the Fund directly at 1-800-647 1568, online on the Fund’s Web site: www.ubs.com/ubsglobalam-proxy, or on the EDGAR Database on the SEC’s Web site (http://www.sec.gov).

Dividend reinvestment plan
The Fund’s Board has established a Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the “Plan”) under which all shareholders whose shares are registered in their own names, or in the name of UBS Financial Services Inc. or its nominee, will have all dividends and other distributions on their shares of common stock automatically reinvested in additional shares, unless such shareholders elect to receive cash. Shareholders who elect to hold their shares in the name of another broker or nominee should contact such broker or nominee to determine whether, or how, they may participate in the Plan. The ability of such shareholders to participate in the Plan may change if their shares are transferred into the name of another broker or nominee.

A shareholder may elect not to participate in the Plan or may terminate participation in the Plan at any time without penalty, and shareholders who have previously terminated participation in the Plan may rejoin it at any time. Changes in elections must be made in writing to the Fund’s transfer agent and should include the shareholder’s name and address as they appear on that share certificate or in the transfer agent’s records. An election to terminate participation in the Plan, until such election is changed, will be deemed an election by a shareholder to take all subsequent distributions in cash. An election will be effective only for distributions

53

Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

General information (unaudited)

declared and having a record date at least ten days after the date on which the election is received.

Additional shares of common stock acquired under the Plan will be purchased in the open market, on the NYSE or otherwise, at prices that may be higher or lower than the net asset value per share at the time of the purchase. Investors should consider whether continued participation in the dividend reinvestment plan is appropriate for them when the Fund’s market price exceeds its net asset value; a portion of a dividend/distribution may represent a return of capital, which would be reinvested in the Fund at a premium to net asset value. The number of shares of common stock purchased with each dividend/distribution will be equal to the result obtained by dividing the amount of the dividend/distribution payable to a particular shareholder by the average price per share (including applicable brokerage commissions) that the transfer agent was able to obtain in the open market. The Fund will not issue any new shares in connection with the Plan. There currently is no charge to participants for reinvesting dividends or other distributions. The transfer agent’s fees for handling the reinvestment of distributions are paid by the Fund. However, each participant pays a pro rata share of brokerage commissions incurred with respect to the transfer agent’s open market purchases of common stock in connection with the reinvestment of distributions. The automatic reinvestment of dividends and other distributions in shares of common stock does not relieve participants of any income tax that may be payable on such distributions.

Experience under the Plan may indicate that changes are desirable. Accordingly, the Fund reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan with respect to any dividend or other distribution if notice of the change is sent to Plan participants at least 30 days before the record date for such distribution. The Plan also may be amended or terminated by the transfer agent by at least 30 days’ written notice to all Plan participants. Additional information regarding the Plan may be obtained from, and all correspondence concerning the Plan should be directed to, the transfer agent at PNC Global Investment Servicing, P.O. Box 43027, Providence, Rhode Island 02940-3027. For further information regarding the Plan, you may also contact the transfer agent directly at 1-800-331 1710.

Distribution policy
The Fund’s Board adopted a managed distribution policy in May 1998, which was revised effective January 2000 and again in May 2005. Pursuant to the policy as in effect from January 2000 through early May 2005, the Fund

54

Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

General information (unaudited)

made regular monthly distributions at an annualized rate equal to 10% of the Fund’s net asset value, as determined as of the last trading day during the first week of that month (usually a Friday unless the NYSE is closed that Friday). The Board approved reducing the annualized rate for distribution pursuant to the policy from 10% to 8% effective beginning with the June 2005 monthly distribution. From May 31, 1998 through January 2000, the Fund’s managed distribution was 8% of the Fund’s net asset value as determined as of the last trading day during the first week of the month. Prior to May 31, 1998, the Fund’s distributions varied based on the Fund’s net investment income and realized capital gains or losses. The Fund’s Board may change or terminate the managed distribution policy at any time; any such change or termination may have an adverse effect on the market price for the Fund’s shares.

To the extent that the Fund’s taxable income in any fiscal year exceeds the aggregate amount distributed based on a fixed percentage of its net asset value, the Fund would make an additional distribution in the amount of that excess near the end of the fiscal year. To the extent that the aggregate amount distributed by the Fund (based on a percentage of its net assets) exceeds its current and accumulated earnings and profits, the amount of that excess would constitute a return of capital or net realized capital gains for tax purposes.

Monthly distributions based on a fixed percentage of the Fund’s net asset value may require the Fund to make multiple distributions of long-term capital gains during a single fiscal year. The Fund has received exemptive relief from the Securities and Exchange Commission that enables it to do so. The Fund’s Board receives recommendations from UBS Global AM, the Fund’s investment advisor, periodically and no less frequently than annually will reassess the annualized percentage of net assets at which the Fund’s monthly distributions will be made.

Board approval of investment advisory and administration contract (unaudited)

Background—At a meeting of the board of Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) on July 16, 2008, the members of the board, including the directors who are not “interested persons” of the Fund (“Independent Directors”), as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), considered and approved the continuance of the Investment Advisory and Administration Contract of the Fund with UBS Global Asset Management (Americas) Inc. (“UBS Global AM”). In preparing for the meeting, the board members had requested and received extensive information from UBS Global AM to assist them. The board received and considered a variety of information about UBS Global AM, as well as the advisory and administrative arrangements for the Fund.

The Independent Directors discussed the materials initially provided by management prior to the scheduled board meeting in a session with their independent legal counsel and requested, and received from management, supplemental materials to assist them in their consideration of the contracts. The Independent Directors also met in executive session after management’s presentation was completed to review the disclosure that had been made to them at the meeting. At all of these sessions the Independent Directors met in session with their independent legal counsel. The Independent Directors also received a memorandum from their independent legal counsel discussing the duties of board members in considering approval of advisory and administration agreements.

In its consideration of the approval of the Investment Advisory and Administration Contract, the board considered the following factors:

Nature, extent and quality of the services under the investment advisory and administration contract—The board received and considered information regarding the nature, extent and quality of advisory services provided to the Fund by UBS Global AM under the Investment Advisory and Administration Contract during the past year. The board also considered the nature, extent and quality of administrative and other services performed by UBS Global AM and the resources devoted to, and the record of compliance with, the Fund’s compliance policies and procedures. The board noted that it received information at regular meetings throughout the year regarding the services rendered by UBS Global AM concerning the management of the Fund’s affairs and UBS Global AM’s role in coordinating providers of other services to the Fund. The board’s evaluation of the services provided by UBS Global AM took into account the board’s knowledge and

56

Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

Board approval of investment advisory and administration contract (unaudited)

familiarity gained as board members of funds in the UBS New York fund complex, including the scope and quality of UBS Global AM’s investment advisory and other capabilities and the quality of administrative and other services. The board observed that the scope of services provided by UBS Global AM had expanded over time as a result of regulatory and other developments, including maintaining and monitoring its own and the Fund’s expanded compliance programs.

The board had available to it the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the Fund’s senior personnel and the portfolio manager primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund and recognized that many of these persons report to the board regularly and that at each regular meeting the board receives a detailed report on the Fund’s performance. The board also considered, based on its knowledge of UBS Global AM and its affiliates, the financial resources available to management and its parent organization, UBS AG. In that regard, the board received extensive financial information regarding UBS Global AM and noted that it was a wholly owned, indirect subsidiary of one of the largest financial services firms in the world. It was also noted that UBS Global AM had well over $100 billion in assets under management and was part of the UBS Global Asset Management Division, which had well over $700 billion of assets under management worldwide as of March 2008. The board was also cognizant of, and considered, the regulatory and litigation actions and investigations occurring in the past year involving UBS AG, UBS Global AM and certain of their affiliates.

The board concluded that, overall, it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided (and expected to be provided) to the Fund under the Investment Advisory and Administration Contract.

Advisory fees and expense ratios—The board reviewed and considered the contractual management fee (“Contractual Management Fee”) payable by the Fund to UBS Global AM in light of the nature, extent and quality of the management and administrative services provided by UBS Global AM. The board also reviewed and considered any fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement arrangements currently in place and considered the actual fee rate (after taking any waivers and reimbursements into account) (“Actual Management Fee”). Additionally, the board received and considered information comparing the Fund’s Contractual Management

57

Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

Board approval of investment advisory and administration contract (unaudited)

Fee, Actual Management Fee and overall expenses with those of funds in a group of funds selected and provided by Lipper, Inc. (“Lipper”), an independent provider of investment company data (the “Expense Group”).

In connection with its consideration of the Fund’s advisory fees, the board also received information on UBS Global AM’s standard institutional account fees for accounts of a similar investment type to the Fund. The board noted that, in general, these fees were lower than the Contractual Management Fee and Actual Management Fee for the Fund, but also noted management’s explanation that comparisons with such accounts may be of limited relevance given the different structures and regulatory requirements of funds versus such accounts and the differences in the levels of services required by funds and such accounts. The board also received information on fees charged to other funds managed by UBS Global AM.

The comparative Lipper information showed that the Fund’s Contractual Management Fee and total expenses were in the third quintile and its Actual Management Fee was in the fourth quintile (with the first quintile representing that fifth of the funds in the Expense Group with the lowest level of fees or expenses, as applicable, and the fifth quintile representing that fifth of the funds in the Expense Group with the highest level of fees or expenses, as applicable). The board noted that the Fund’s Actual Management Fee was close to that of the Fund’s Expense Group median.

Taking all of the above into consideration, the board determined that the management fee was reasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund under the Investment Advisory and Administration Contract.

Fund performance—The board received and considered (a) annualized total return information of the Fund compared to other funds (the “Performance Universe”) selected by Lipper over the one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods ended April 30, 2008 and (b) annualized performance information for each year in the ten-year period ended April 30. The board was provided with a description of the methodology Lipper used to determine the similarity of the Fund with the funds included in its Performance Universe. The board also noted that it had received information throughout the year at periodic intervals with respect to the Fund’s performance. The comparative Lipper information showed that the Fund’s

58

Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

Board approval of investment advisory and administration contract (unaudited)

performance was in the second quintile for the one-, three- and ten-year periods and the fourth quintile for the five-year period. (The first quintile represented that fifth of the funds in the Performance Universe with the highest performance, and the fifth quintile represented that fifth of the funds in the Performance Universe with the lowest performance.) Based on its review, the board concluded that the Fund’s investment performance was satisfactory.

Adviser profitability—The board received and considered a profitability analysis of UBS Global AM and its affiliates in providing services to the Fund. The board also received profitability information with respect to the UBS New York fund complex as a whole. UBS Global AM’s profitability was considered not excessive in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund.

Economies of scale—The board received and considered information from management regarding whether UBS Global AM has achieved economies of scale with respect to the management of the Fund, whether the Fund has appropriately benefited from any economies of scale, and whether there is potential for realization of further economies of scale for the Fund. The board considered whether economies of scale in the provision of services to the Fund were being passed along to shareholders. The board also considered whether alternative fee structures (such as breakpoints) would be more appropriate or reasonable taking into consideration economies of scale or other efficiencies.

In conducting its review, the board noted that the Fund’s Contractual Management Fee did not contain any breakpoints. Further, the board noted that advisory contracts of closed-end funds frequently do not contain breakpoints. Management informed the board that the Fund, as a closed-end investment company, was not expected to materially increase in size; thus, UBS Global AM would not benefit from economies of scale.

The board members considered whether economies of scale could be realized because UBS Global AM advises other similar funds, and, based on their experience, the board accepted UBS Global AM’s explanation that significant economies of scale would not be realized because the nature of the market in which the Fund invests did not provide significant savings.

59

Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.

Board approval of investment advisory and administration contract (unaudited)

Other benefits to UBS Global AM—The board considered other benefits received by UBS Global AM and its affiliates as a result of its relationship with the Fund, including the opportunity to offer additional products and services to Fund shareholders.

In light of the costs of providing investment management, administrative and other services to the Fund and UBS Global AM’s ongoing commitment to the Fund, the profits and other ancillary benefits that UBS Global AM and its affiliates received were considered reasonable.

In light of all of the foregoing, the board approved the Investment Advisory and Administration Contract to continue for another year. In making its decision, the board identified no single factor as being determinative in approving the Investment Advisory and Administration Contract. The Independent Directors were advised by separate independent legal counsel throughout the entire process. The board discussed the proposed continuance of the Investment Advisory and Administration Contract in a private session with their independent legal counsel at which no representatives of UBS Global AM were present.

		The registrant’s Audit Committee (“audit committee”) has adopted an “Audit Committee Charter (Amended and Restated as of May 12, 2004-with revisions through July 2008)” (the “charter”). The charter contains the audit committee’s pre-approval policies and procedures. Reproduced below is an excerpt from the charter regarding pre-approval policies and procedures:

The [audit] Committee shall:
. . .
2.	Pre-approve (a) all audit and permissible non-audit services1 to be provided to the Fund and (b) all permissible non-audit services to be provided by the Fund’s independent auditors to UBS Global [AM] and any Covered Service Providers, if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund. In carrying out this responsibility, the Committee shall seek periodically from UBS Global [AM] and from the independent auditors a list of such audit and permissible non-audit services that can be expected to be rendered to the Fund, UBS Global [AM] or any Covered Service Providers by the Fund’s independent auditors, and an estimate of the fees sought to be paid in connection with such services. The Committee may delegate its responsibility to pre-approve any such audit and permissible non-audit services to a sub-committee consisting of the Chairperson of the Committee and two other members of the Committee as the Chairperson, from time to time, may determine and appoint, and such sub-committee shall report to the Committee, at its next regularly scheduled meeting after the

sub-committee’s meeting, its decision(s). From year to year, the Committee shall report to the Board whether this system of pre-approval has been effective and efficient or whether this Charter should be amended to allow for pre-approval pursuant to such policies and procedures as the Committee shall approve, including the delegation of some or all of the Committee’s pre-approval responsibilities to other persons (other than UBS Global [AM] or the Fund’s officers).

¹ The Committee will not approve non-audit services that the Committee believes may taint the independence of the auditors. Currently, permissible non-audit services include any professional services (including tax services) that are not prohibited services as described below, provided to the Fund by the independent auditors, other than those provided to the Fund in connection with an audit or a review of the financial statements of the Fund.

Pre-approval by the Committee of any permissible non-audit services is not required so long as: (i) the aggregate amount of all such permissible non-audit services provided to the Fund, UBS Global [AM] and any service providers controlling, controlled by or under common control with UBS Global [AM] that provide ongoing services to the Fund (“Covered Service Providers”) constitutes not more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid to the independent auditors (during the fiscal year in which the permissible non-audit services are provided) by (a) the Fund, (b) its investment adviser and (c) any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the Fund during the fiscal year in which the services are provided that would have to be approved by the Committee; (ii) the permissible non-audit services were not recognized by the Fund at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and (iii) such services are promptly brought to the attention of the Committee and approved by the Committee (or its delegate(s)) prior to the completion of the audit.

For the fiscal years ended November 30, 2008 and November 30, 2007, the aggregate fees billed by E&Y of $412,382 and $378,555, respectively, for non-audit services rendered on behalf of the registrant (“covered”), its investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser) and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser (“non-covered”) that provides ongoing services to the registrant for each of the last two fiscal years of the registrant is shown in the table below:

	2008	2007
Covered Services	$8,123	$7,850
Non-Covered Services	404,259	370,705

(h) The registrant’s audit committee was not required to consider whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under

common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.

Item 6. Investments

(a)	Included as part of the report to shareholders filed under Item 1 of this form.
(b)	Not applicable.

Item 7. Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment Companies.

The registrant’s Board of Directors believes that the voting of proxies on securities held by the registrant is an important element of the overall investment process. As such, the Board has delegated the responsibility to vote such proxies to the registrant’s advisor. Following is a summary of the proxy voting policy of the advisor.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PHILOSOPHY, VOTING GUIDELINES AND POLICY SUMMARY

The proxy voting policy of UBS Global AM is based on its belief that voting rights have economic value and must be treated accordingly. Generally, UBS Global AM expects the boards of directors of companies issuing securities held by its clients to act as stewards of the financial assets of the company, to exercise good judgment and practice diligent oversight with the management of the company. While there is no absolute set of rules that determines appropriate corporate governance under all circumstances and no set of rules will guarantee ethical behavior, there are certain benchmarks, which, if substantial progress is made toward, give evidence of good corporate governance. UBS Global AM may delegate to an independent proxy voting and research service the authority to exercise the voting rights associated with certain client holdings. Any such delegation shall be made with the direction that the votes be exercised in accordance with UBS Global AM’s proxy voting policy.

When UBS Global AM’s view of a company’s management is favorable, UBS Global AM generally supports current management initiatives. When UBS Global AM’s view is that changes to the management structure would probably increase shareholder value, UBS Global AM may not support existing management proposals. In general, UBS Global AM (1) opposes proposals which act to entrench management; (2) believes that boards should be independent of company management and composed of persons with requisite skills, knowledge and experience; (3) opposes structures which impose financial constraints on changes in control; (4) believes remuneration should be commensurate with responsibilities and performance; and (5) believes that appropriate steps should be taken to ensure the independence of auditors.

UBS Global AM has implemented procedures designed to identify whether it has a conflict of interest in voting a particular proxy proposal, which may arise as a result of its or its affiliates’ client relationships,

marketing efforts or banking and broker/dealer activities. To address such conflicts, UBS Global AM has imposed information barriers between it and its affiliates who conduct banking, investment banking and broker/dealer activities and has implemented procedures to prevent business, sales and marketing issues from influencing our proxy votes. Whenever UBS Global AM is aware of a conflict with respect to a particular proxy, its appropriate local corporate governance committee is required to review and agree to the manner in which such proxy is voted.

Item 8. Portfolio Managers of Closed-End Management Investment Companies.

(a)	(1)	Name – Uwe Schillhorn
		Title – Vice President
		Length of Service – Since 2004
	Business Experience Last 5 Years – Mr. Schillhorn is an executive director and head of emerging markets debt (since 2004) of UBS Global AM. Mr. Schillhorn is a vice president of two investment companies (consisting of two portfolios) for which UBS Global AM serves as investment advisor, sub-advisor or manager.
	Information is as of – January 29, 2009
(a)	(2)	(i)  Portfolio Manager
		Uwe Schillhorn
(a)	(2)	(ii)  (A) Registered Management Investment Companies
	The portfolio manager is responsible for four other Registered Management Investment Companies (not including the Registrant) totaling approximately $272 million as of November 30, 2008.
(a)	(2)	(ii)  (B) Other Pooled Investment Vehicles
	The portfolio manager is responsible for nine Other Pooled Investment Vehicles totaling approximately $1.9 billion as of November 30, 2008.
(a)	(2)	(ii)  (C) Other accounts
	The portfolio manager is responsible for 13 other accounts totaling approximately $2.2 billion as of November 30, 2008.
(a)	(2)	(iii)  Accounts with respect to which an advisory fee is based on the performance of the account.
		None
(a)	(2)	(iv)  Conflicts.
	The management of the registrant and other accounts by a portfolio manager could result in potential conflicts of interest if the registrant and other accounts have different objectives, benchmarks and fees because the portfolio manager and his team must allocate time and

investment expertise across multiple accounts, including the registrant. The portfolio manager and his team manage the registrant and other accounts utilizing an approach that groups similar accounts by characteristics and objectives. The Advisor manages accounts according to their respective objectives, including where possible, those accounts that have specific investment restrictions. Accordingly, portfolio holdings, position sizes, and industry and sector exposures tend to be similar across accounts, which may minimize the potential for conflicts of interest.

                If a portfolio manager identifies a limited investment opportunity that may be suitable for more than one account, the registrant may not be able to take full advantage of that opportunity due to an allocation of filled purchase or sale orders across all eligible portfolios and accounts. To deal with these situations, the Advisor has adopted procedures for allocating portfolio trades across multiple accounts to provide fair treatment to all accounts.

                The management of personal accounts by a portfolio manager may also give rise to potential conflicts of interest. The Advisor and the registrant have adopted a Code of Ethics that governs such personal trading, but there is no assurance that the Code will adequately address all such conflicts.

                (Information in Item 8(a)(2) is provided as of the Registrant’s fiscal year end of November 30, 2008.)

(a)	(3)	Compensation.
	The compensation received by portfolio managers at UBS Global AM, including Mr. Schilhorn, includes a base salary and incentive compensation as detailed below. Overall compensation can be grouped into three categories: base salary, annual bonuses and UBS AG equity. Base salary is fixed compensation used to recognize the experience, skills and knowledge that the investment professionals bring to their roles. Annual bonuses, which are discretionary, are correlated with performance and are based on three components: 1) the firm’s overall business success; 2) the performance of the respective asset class and/or investment mandate; and 3) an individual’s specific contribution to the firm’s results. Senior investment professionals may receive a portion of their annual performance-based incentive in the form of deferred or restricted UBS AG shares or employee stock options. Broader equity share ownership is encouraged for all employees through “Equity Plus.” This long-term incentive program gives employees the opportunity to purchase UBS stock with after-tax funds from their bonus or salary. Two UBS stock options are given for each share acquired and held for two years. The performance related component of the portfolio manager’s bonus is based on the performance of the funds he manages as compared to each fund’s broad-based benchmark over one, two and three year periods. With respect to the Registrant, the benchmark in effect as of November 2008 is a blended benchmark composed of 67% of Citigroup World Government Bond Index and 33% JP Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global. (Information in Item 8(a)(3) is provided as of the Registrant’s fiscal year end of November 30, 2008, except as otherwise noted.)
(a)	(4)	Dollar Range of Securities of Registrant Beneficially Owned by Portfolio Manager.

        None

        (Information in Item 8(a)(4) is provided as of the Registrant’s fiscal year end of November 30, 2008.)

Item 9. Purchases of Equity Securities by Closed-End Management Investment Company and Affiliated Purchasers.

There were no purchases made by or on behalf of the Registrant or any “affiliated purchaser,” as defined in Rule 10b-18(a)(3) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, of shares of the Registrant’s equity securities that are registered by the Registrant pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act made in the period covered by this report.

Item 10. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

The registrant’s Board has established a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider nominees recommended by shareholders if a vacancy occurs among those board members who are not “interested persons” as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. In order to recommend a nominee, a shareholder should send a letter to the chairperson of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, Richard Burt, care of the Secretary of the registrant at UBS Global Asset Management, UBS Building, One North Wacker Drive, Chicago, IL 60606, and indicate on the envelope “Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.” The shareholder’s letter should state the nominee’s name and should include the nominee’s resume or curriculum vitae, and must be accompanied by a written consent of the individual to stand for election if nominated for the Board and to serve if elected by shareholders.
